Aether Currents moved

[lovstokuddle]

they made it hard to find now for new and old players, sea of clouds is a total joke with the compass, no way to go and compass reads go NW, stupid, gets old hunting for something that isn't there, I hope SE test ran these new locations???

Doesn't that area require you to come back at 57 when you can access other side of zone?

Yep and it's a part of the msq that actually takes you there. I level'd a couple of alts in the last couple of weeks/months and even tho SE moved the currents (map wide) and made changes to the quests/chains that would reward currents prior, I personally found that it's much easier now than it was as HW got released.

The Aether Current Locations were changes in patch 3.3 to make the more easily accessible.

[3.0] The location of aether currents in all areas have been adjusted.
Aether currents will now be placed in locations more easily accessed when progressing through main scenario and sidequests.

because in NO patch notes did it say oh by the way we moved aether currents to make it even easier for new people.

Guess you're lying there, Lan! That link must be an elaborate ruse.

Lol I don't care what the other players posted. It's a rant in general to SE.

Then maybe dont phrase it as a question if you dont want an answer.

I like the new locations. its easier for my on my alt. lol

They changed them because many couldn't be asked to explore for them. Same reason why there's no more Broom quests and the Moogle Quests being nerfed to the ground.

They changed them because many couldn't be asked to explore for them.

The thing is just that is didn't force anyone to explore at all... I just went around with a map from the great onlines and checked them all off. And if you don't even want to do that, you can just ask someone to take you there. Someone once paid me 700k Gil to unlock them for their alt by flying them to the locations so they don't have to search or even walk themselves.

For me (and I know I'm completely alone on this), this change is destroying my buisness, as I don't have any idea where the new currents are, and can no longer take people there. Not even the ones I don't charge for it. We had it easy enough, and people are already complaining about there not being enough content, now the whole aether current system is only useful to abalanthia since it's basically two zones you are not supposed to travel around between when you enter teh first one.
