    Discuss everyone.

    I for one is excited about the mentor system. I have a feeling to be in the mentor system you gotta have like "Grandmaster of war/magic" achievement title.

    Just as I mentioned previously, there are three ways to obtain equipment in FFXIV.

    Obtaining items via difficult raids
    Obtaining items through tokens that have weekly limitations
    Obtaining items by spending a long period of time


    Anima weapons fall into the third path above.
    Anima's are gonna stay the same, super duper long grind. I feel sorry for anyone doing more then one.

    Have you expected them giving a relic a 2 day quest?
    Even during 1.22, in the original first relic quest, people invested weeks into the first step (get from hamlet defence 3 beastmen seals from every hamlet).

    but don't worry. While the latests steps of the relic quests will remain a time investment, the older steps get nerfed.

    Many said they may nerf it alittle by having less turn ins. They were wrong it seems.

    They were wrong if they expected it to current steps before newer steps are ingame.

Now I know that those working on those songs might not be able to do anything else in the game, but people will still need to be payed to get this done, that is money which could have gone somewhere else. I predict that most players will ignore this feature, dead on arrival.
    My FC is looking forward to it actually. I'm planning to get one ASAP and for us to farm music for it together. We spend a lot of time in our FC house and I'm hoping that it lets you change the background music for the entire instance inside your house. ^^

    The dummy: Seriously, this instead of letting people use a parcer? Seriously? I lack words for how much of a obvious waste of dev time this is. Is this one of the reason we get a mere 2 dungeons and 1 trial this time around again?
    PS3/4 players can't use parsers at all, and many PC players don't use them either because they're against the ToU (even if there's kind of an unwritten "don't ask, don't tell" rule about them) or because they don't think they need one. People have been asking for an ingame parser for a long time, but the devs understandably have concerns about people using it in a discriminatory way if the numbers were visible to others. I for one am glad that they're trying to compromise.

    This hall of the novice also seems like a waste of dev time, most players are long past that point in the game and those that could use this will most likely not, seeing as they don`t realize it themselves or just don`t care for maxing out their job.
    You... haven't noticed the influx of new players recently after ARR was on the Humble Bundle twice? o.O

    I know that I certainly have seen a massive amount of sprout players and new player bonuses lately.

    Come on SE, do a pull, ask the player base what we want to see in the game, the result might surprise you and might make it possible to avoid wasting time on feature you think people want but that then gets ignored.
    All of the items you've mentioned are things that have been asked for multiple times on the forums... >.>

    Anima doesn't take anywhere near a month to finish. I'm on my second one just doing daily roulettes, beast tribe quests, some hunts, and a very small amount of Alexander farming when I actually feel like doing it.

    I feel like people are just going about it all wrong.

    You might be right, that these features will see wide use, I am glad to hear that there are people who are going to like the jukebox, proving me wrong for thinking it was a complete waste of time. I hope you are right that people will use all of those things I speak out against, that I see as a waste of dev time. I would have just liked to get more dungeons, you see I love dungeons, 4-man content, and it annoys me to see that I get less of those, but if I am in the minority then that is fine I guess, still annoying but fine.

    Until Gob dip becomes more available the i200 anima allows more gear to be bought until better i210 can be farmed. Otherwise some folks will just focus on 1 relic to get past third stage and play catch up on the rest once materials and currency costs drop in a year or so.
