Really SE? Really? You honestly still don't see the problem with this terrible claiming system even though there was a huge thread about it?

from the 1st look , it look like it gonna be problem to hold hate while fighting rooming NM and some people may use that to MPK the 1st party to gain the claim and loot

QFT
i dont understand why this is even taking place. the only real complaints ive ever heard were for claiming NMs. in a more instanced centric game this is not a problem..... FFXIV's official direction is to be an instanced centric game.

Concerned how this will effect EXP more than anything.

Yeah me too. Everything else looks good to me.

guys it says that WHO ever clams it 1st gets the exp and drops

Players will be able to attack any enemy*. However, only the player (or party that the player is in) that initiates the first attack on the enemy will earn the rewards.

I mean how will they keep it from being exploited. Can a R50 just come and oneshot something I claim and I get EXP for no effort?

Can anyone help clarify how this particular revision will have any sort of desirable result? It sounds like it's either the same as what we have now, or worse. I also find it's not very clear so I could be wrong.
