Confused about Savage rules..?

Is it 2013 again?

The same happened to us when we tried to help an FC member with A1S. I accidently clicked us into A1S as I thought it would count our progress from the lowest person, but for some stupid reason the game decided that we could take a person that had yet to clear even the first floor into the third one. After that he was locked into that floor for the rest of the week, which sucked.

I don't know why it works like this. Theoretically you could always have some team taking you into A4S weekly until you clear it, without ever touching the precious floors. I think this is (yet another) hindsighy in SE's programming that they can't be bothered to change.

That's what I've started to think, so theoretically, I can just skip floors 1-3 and get the good loot/manifesto from A4S. Makes no sense..

I only started playing FF14 in Feb this year (also my first ever MMO), so am not sure what you mean by this?

I did try to look up some info and found this at http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...b7f1d6f626c5c5

Progress within Alexander: Gordias (Savage) is saved as you advance through each area. Party members who have completed a given area may challenge it again if they meet the entry requirements.

Isn't an entry requirement to have beaten A1S?

HAHAHA never laugh so much on the forum... Not because of the problem but because you assume you can come into A4s like that and take the win easily (or not)..
