Rokien's new thread on Open World.

Actually market ward is just a zone, people can enter and leave when they want, that is fine.
What is not fine is these mandatory instanced raids(to get any type of good gear) that are pretty much all the same. Lets not forget you have to have 8 people. Also, each gear will be worthless with each new patch.

To be fair, I do like what they're doing with the primal weapons. While the Ifrit items do have the edge, All of them are viable, and with a few stat system tweaks, perhaps it will be possible to use each one in different character builds, which I'm a huge fan of

But yeah, everything else I agree with
