Loot boxes would be fun, maybe from FATE drops, perhaps they’d be an alternative to grinding FATEs instead of continuously doing a DNG for gear.
But if they did do that I’d prefer it to be tamed and be low level only; for incentives and such.
Perhaps enemies can drop loot boxes sort of like in ffxi they drop items like potions / ethers / certain gear for that specific level range.
I’m all for it for low levels, but maybe keep it up until Heavensword, and from
Then on there: just have FATEs drop them.
I like the idea though
I won't lie but I do enjoy loot boxes from time to time. However FFXIV isn't really a loot box kinda game. The games where loot boxes do work have gear upgrade systems that go beyond just loot x drop or spend y amount of tokens and your done. Items needed to upgrade gear are the common RNG drops from loot boxes. So even if you don't win the big prizes, glamor, pets or what not you are guaranteed to get at least something that can be used to further yourself and give incentive to use them. What does FFXIV have that can give that same incentive? Also what for the players that ain't interested in glamor, pets or mount collecting? What would be in it for them? Loot boxes are meant to reach a wide variety of players, or else fewer would use them.
Like...using Palace of The Dead Cursed Hoard boxes as an example. Would you want to spend say $20 for a pack of boxes if all you knew you would be promised of winning were fireworks and confetti pouhes? I know I sure wouldn't.
or...
If I don't particularly care for the mount or glamor chance in the box, could I have a shot at say a class specific chest containing top tier raid gear?
