HoH Emp weapons cost too much

[LalaRu]

Those weapons are i365 with 2 meld slots. I see nothing wrong to require you to spam just a couple days the dungeon to get a weapon on same level of Tsukuyomi's ones.

Palace of the Dead had a pretty severe reduction in silver chests succeeding if your aetherpool was high for the floor. That means that to get to 90 there you had to open a lot more of silver chests than you do in Heaven on High to get 100. And not only that, but you had to fight the higher level floors more often, which were more difficult (especially random parties were more likely to screw em up and waste the run) and time consuming (since higher floors took way more time than lower floors).

Here you can keep your stats at a relatively average level to get maximum success rate, all the while progressing towards the weapon on the fast, early floors.

In other words, comparing the current 100 to Palace of the Dead 90 simply shows that you didn't consider anything at all besides the raw number...which is like comparing leveling speed of, say 30-40 with 50-60. That's only ten levels, right?! So why is 50-60 taking more time...

i dont think they are even worth it tbh
just keep your aether levels and wait for eureka

There's nothing else to do, though. You can see completion of the content in a day or two otherwise, the aetehrpool are the only long term reason to grind it, unless you only leveled any job to 61 since sb's launch a year and a half ago.

More senseless grinding!

back in potd, it wasn't till a few weeks till people started skipping chests and speed running the upper floors to do it. Here, people have to do 21-30 runs from day 1. It has a bad sideffect of making it feel much more tedious than it should.

There are way more silver chests in HoH, prolly also because they added magicite to silver chests, and you can easily solo 1-60/70. So if you dont like ppl skipping or speedrunnig then just go solo and get 99/99 in a couple hours or make a PF with light farming. It doesnt get easier as this and still ppl complain.

If you can wait a few weeks they'll allow you to trade in Rabanastre and Lighthouse tokens for the upgrade item for your Mendacity weapon.

OR

Eureka MIGHT grant you a 370 weapon... key word "MIGHT". Don't hold your breath though, stopping at 355 was a pretty huge letdown.

Anyone else notice some of the weapons have odd sub-stat allocation? A bunch of people were discussing on NN on my server and it would seem that it's pretty bad.

The only weapons that have decent substats are MNK and BRD, iirc. The others are awful if you care about substats. If you don’t and just want the higher item level, though, the substats don’t really matter.

Sigh, people just want stuff for free. I think the price is fine. Keep it the way it is.

I find it sad most of the threads in here are people asking for everything to be made easier because it hurts them to exert effort.
