Saint title should get first dibs

[Keridwyn]

That's a no from me.

I did it for the title and nothing more. No special access. No extra perks. Just a title. It's enough for me.

Nothing wrong with people who put in effort being rewarded, but one issue here is you can't suddenly attach a desirable reward after the final ranking season has ended and you lost your chance. The advertised prize for achieving a top 12 rank was a title, many people decided whether or not it was worth their time based on what was offered. It would be entirely unfair to turn around and trick them by changing the prize to something different after they decided not to participate.

Oof, this is one of those things that teachers tell you in school.
"There aren't stupid questions . . . "

So we should ask players to not only risk health for that housing timer, but we now are gonna clear those filthy trash casual non omni crafters away so that only certain high class people can obtain.
Remember non crafters/casuals to work hard and maybe you'll get it, too.

If SE had actually been proactive with bots, or at least took action against them (stripping titles and rewards) then I would say sure! You guys built the damn thing, you should have first dibs.

However, we don't play a fair game, and bots already ruin the housing market. Issa no from me.

What about those that did a !@#%-ton in the first phase which was not tracked? What about those who carried on after the rankings? Those with the saint title ARE NOT the only ones who built it.

Now, don't hate me, I know it is the forums, but hear me out!

I think it'd be super cool if people with the Saint title got first dibs for a plot in the new housing if they want it.

It's kinda hard for me to say "I'm not into this idea," when I also don't like the idea of people doing so much to help with the restoration and some of them won't be lucky and won't be getting a house in Ishgard... but I'm not into this idea.

While the notion is kind, no one was promised a house. Suddenly adding this is misguided. If SQEX had led with this as part of the initial concept I might feel differently, but I'm not sure this is an appropriate move at this stage.

I got Saint Title the first round. I don't want this. Heck, I don't even want to move to Ishgard from my mansion on the hill in Mist. I just want access to their building designs. :P

I think it should be dibs to anyone who contributed to the restoration.

Getting Saint on some servers required hours of work, preparation, and for crafters melding/food/pots/delineations and gil. Getting Saint was grueling and I know a lot of players that would not have had a chance even if they were willing and met the in-game requirements just because of time.

But contributing to the build? That just takes getting ONE crafter/gatherer to level 10, getting to HW in the game and doing some gathering or crafting. Not hard at all.

Especially if you count FATE participation.

I still remember the image of the multiboxer who had 4(maybe 5) characters with saint title on the same DoH so I am going to say no.
