Same GC Ifrit killers gets better reward

You know what? Everyone can just pick Ul'dah and Limsa (since those two seem to be the hot spots) I'll pick my Gridania and have all the Caravan Security quests I can imagine all to myself. ^^d

But you'll get sick of that after a week and then want in a GC ifrit group. Only to find out everyone went Ul'dah and you're left out.

Yeah basicaly my entire linkshell is gonna pick Uldah GC now. I really wanted to go limsa GC and i still will, but im probably gonna be the only one and i doubt they will want someone from limsa GC in there uldah only ifirt raids.

We still dont know what they meant by that. It might just be extra gil. Also it seems that Limsa and Grid have better company pants...so thats something.

Well I don't think EVERYONE is going to be Uldah, and I have a Linkshell so I doubt they will be like "NO NO NO YOU CANT COME TO IFRIT FIGHT GFTO" I see the ratio being U:L:G > 10:4:2 (per person in the 1kCo.) which is fine for me.

I didn't notice any new level 50 GC gear. Only 25-30 gear. Did i miss some?

[Vesper]

After going through the patch notes this is the only thing that I don't like. It makes no sense. "Choose what GC you wan't, don't worry about any other factor in your choice" then they have the gall to add this crap? Completely ridiculous.

True it probably would've been a better decision to reward cooperation of different companies, but the "greater" rewards probably wont matter that much.

[Belial]

If it affects drop rate that's still a pretty vicious jab to those who want to join whatever company. If they want to pull this whole "casual-friendly, fair for all" card, they're gonna have to follow suit. But as seems to be the common theory, and what I hope is true, is greater gains in company seals, gil, etc. That I could care less about. But better drop rates, different items, things of the nature, need to be squashed ASAP.

Any MMO there is always eltism and as such the path of least resistance will be used to gear what they need. If an entire GC group:

1) Affects the total number of drops; people will run it to get all of their gear sooner
2) Affects the % rate of drops; people will still run it to get the gear sooner
3) Affects dark matter or gil; nobody cares
4) Earn more company seals. If company seals eventually can give us good endgame gear, people will want an all GC group. This may not be relevant for 1.19 but maybe in the future as we get more ranks.
5) gets new different loot.

These are the only 5 I could come up with. 4 of the 5 would promote all GC groups. 1 wouldn't which begs the question if it is just dark matter or gil why the hell would you even bother with this type of reward. It has to be significant enough to mention in patch notes.
