Same GC Ifrit killers gets better reward

[Neptune]

I wanted to post a heads up that Yoshida has confirmed that "Those who defeat Ifrit in a party formed exclusively of members from their own Grand Company will earn greater rewards" only applies to the level 25+ battle (Bowl of Embers [Normal]) and not the high level one.

He also mentioned that the bonus earned when all 3 grand companies are represented in the party will be implemented in the future and again reiterates, please choose the Grand Company you want to. The choice is yours.

Amen. I retract my previous comment about this being a super lame choice! SE has chosen the Light side of the Force. Well done dev team.

Thanks for the confirmation Bayohne, the patch notes were just super ambiguous which is why I was pushing for confirmation before the patch goes live.

Please Devs get us some clarification on this before patch day

You have said before that we shouldn't worry which GC we choose, however:

I cannot choose my GC "freely" knowing that I may be missing out on better loot or possibly exclusive loot from Ifrit by doing so.

Could you please explain what exactly is the "greater reward" from defeating Ifrit by members all of the same GC?

Thanks

I keep seeing people complaining about spreading the population of the cities, not everyone wants to roll Uldah. My LS chose LL, most people are on board with it so far. But for those who do not want to be LL can always set up groups inside the LS with other city state factions.

lol its so funny, no wonder there are studies on people who play MMOs
now everyones all sunshine and flowers.... it wasnt detrimental to begin with!

I know. Some people just seem to enjoy panicking.

The choice is yours.

And yours alone.

Thanks for the heads up Bayohne - it would still be nice to know what exatly the greater reward for the R25 version is, but knowing it only affects this version of the encounter, I am happy to freely choose the GC I want
