    Why repost? It's not that people fail to understand that point of view. We disagree.

    Do you know what else shortens the lifetime of an event? When people get sick of it and stop running it.

    Yup but that's effectively not the case here.

    How long it has been since the release of this encounter? I still see people shouting for that daily, not to mention Linkshell going straight up there. Add people on this thread with comments like "I did it over 500 times", and well it shows that even if people complain they keep doing it.

    It's not about opinions. It's about facts. So you can agree or disagree it won't change anything.

    Yea I played FF11 for 5 years before I finally though "well F this for a laugh", at some point people will get fed up.

    Every time you do content and walk away empty handed you feel slightly less motivated to do that content, this is what people are getting at.

    You either get everything fast and leave because you got it all.
    You either get bored of doing the same thing over and over and get nothing for it.
    or you find a middle ground which prolongs content but doesn't make it a crap shoot every time.

    And what if everyone wants a weapon, who takes priority to go first etc ?

    Why not just take it out of the players hands and make it so everyone gets a token (non tradeable)

    Because people can not get their weapon cause of the SHITTY DROP RATES ppl are not doing this cause ifrit is a fun and challenging fight or w/e. also to your other post when that person gets another 50 class they can go farm ifrit again if they wanna deal with the bullshit.
