CT is dead, please fix

[Chiramu]

I also love the glamour from these dungeons too, it would be nice to know you'll get a group for that too .

Crystal Tower is dead because it's old, useless, worthless and offers nothing to anyone. It doesn't need to be fixed, it needs to be removed. FFXIV's entire platform is based on current content. Just like when a new tier of gear comes out, your old armor is instantly useless when you replace it.

Then S.E. just might as well shut the game down, because in 3 weeks 96%+ of the current content will be obsolete.

Yeah, except that godsdamned fscking minion I'm still trying (and still failing) to obtain.

HEY, SE! You want to make CT insta-popular again? Make the Onion Knight and Puff of Darkness 100% GUARANTEED drops at the end of every run. Problem solved. You're welcome.

If they did that I'd be in there daily.

100% would only solve it for the first 2 weeks.

Well, if they're not planning on somehow revitalizing or incentivizing the content through roulettes, I don't really see a reason why the Minions shouldn't be 100% drop rate, since right now you have, say, a 30% rate on minions (and I'm being generous) that you have to lot with 15+ other people over.

And, when you inevitably lose your first few lots, you may have to wait an hour or two to even get into your next attempt at the Minion. Which will have a 30% chance of dropping, which you'll have to fight 15+ other people for.

See the problem here?

[Dree-Elle]

100% would only solve it for the first 2 weeks.

You'd still be rolling against (max) 23 other people. So I think it would still be somewhat longer than that, just not the entire elapsed length of time between the raid's initial drop and now.

I'd like to see CT relevant again and even see it in the form as like the main scenario roulette. Like seriously that's some old content but SE made it relevant for players. Give it rewards that an older player wouldn't mind running it in the roulette if they chose. People that really don't like CT just don't do the roulette and the people that do, it is there for you to do. Frankly i enjoy running old stuff even on my higher levels for lower people. I enjoy helping out. Some do not. The best part of a game is experiencing it for the first time through and through and which many fond memories are gained in the process. Id rather not take that away from newer players just because I've been there done that.

I miss running them. I would do it now but the queues are worse than PVP. If they changed the reward for the weekly from Ironworks upgrade items to Esoteric upgrade items, it would probably get people back in there. Unfortunately they're probably saving that for the Ark Void, so if they don't come up with something else, it will remain pretty dead. People still run old Coil and EX primals for glamour, but they have added appeal in that EX primals also drop ponies, and primals and Coil both count towards the tank mounts.

Also I could be wrong but I don't think you can run any of the towers unsynced, even if you go in a with a full 24 man alliance. So, that might not be an easy solution as some people are suggesting.
