[dev1244] Accessory Reform, discussion

[Sorel]

Earrings should be 2 separate slots, period. Seems unusual to have fewer earring slots than in FFXI ... no??

Other than that, I have no other complaints about this change.

Sorry I have to bring up FFXI.

2 earring slots, 2 ring slots

epic earring drops, puts into earring slot 1
epic earring drops, puts into earring slot 2
same with rings.

Either have 2 earrings and get rid of brace or have 2 brace and get rid of earrings please.

Are we really mad about this? Really? We've known this was coming for a LONG time, the wording was just a little vague. This has been a probable outcome since they first announced they were going to remove slot cost many months ago.

Personally I approve of these changes. Was anyone really using 5 or more accessories? If not then you're getting more room for accessories. Also they're balancing this to work with the rest of the game, the current accessories are not.

It's funny to see people all on one side of an issue and then once a fix is proposed, everyone's back on the other side. In this case initially everyone wanted slot cost removed and to use all available accessory slots. Well they're giving us that, except for the sake of balancing things they're removing a couple of slots. Makes sense to me. Now that we're getting that people want to go back to slot cost? Really? You've gotta be fucking kidding me. Absolutely ridiculous lol.

How about for once we let the devs do what they do best? The proposed system is good, it looks like it works just fine. Things will be balanced to work with the new system in place and the rest of the game. Honestly though people will complain up to 1.21 and then maybe for a few weeks after and we'll never hear about this issue again. New players won't know any system other than the new one and no one else will really care. Happens every patch lol.

can you stop saying everyone

I don't care for the most parts of this. The only thing that is bothering me is only one earring slot. I want two earring slot. The rest I could't care less

Exactly.. not everyone.. but lets say "People" wanted Slot Cost removed. That is correct. BUT, by far Noone asked for removing 4 of the existing 9 Accessory Slots ! Period ! I seriously dont get how they reduce 2 Earring Slots to ONE. That does not make Sense.

Its like asking for a DoubleCheeseburger, but for getting DoubleCheese they will remove the Meat, even if you didnt ask for it.

in xiv epic earring goes into the ear. Spiffy bracelet goes onto the wrist. Suitable rings go on the fingers. ah screw it i should have something there any way neck piece goes on the neck. Net difference.. a whole lot of nothing. Save for some perceiving a loss

To be honest i have never used more then 5 accessories my entire time playing xiv. If the examples they gave us are any thing to go on. were in for some good stuff. I mean heck those new pearl rings gave me a thmboner.

I feel the 2 earring slots need to be separate, outside that I have no complaints with the changes.

[Chardrizard]

People want bling bling in every slot so we can jam our inventory further, they will also weaken the stats for balancing purpose.

The choice comes down to equip more for less stat also more inventory issue
Or equip less with better stat and more inventory sapce for everyone, its brainless really.



And people are stupd if they are expecting to equip all 12 slot with thebsame current stat. Just to emphasize, stupid.

You dont understand what People are talking about. Its not about equipping all 12 Slots. Its about make an absolute unlogical abolishment.

2 Earrings -> 1 Earring
2 Wristlets -> 1 Wristlets

Are we all have Characters with 1 Arm and 1 Ear? They can go with 5 Slots instead of 9, i couldnt care less. But the please make it either 2 Earrings instead of 1 Wristlet and 1 Earring or 2 Wristlets instead of 1 Earring and 1 Wristlet. I dont care how it "looks" on my Character and i dont care about the Stats, like i said above.
