Ifrit Weapon Drop Rates Make Children Weep

[Hiruke]

ya but to easier of drop rates also makes it people get what they want and then no one does ifrit anymore.

I'm picking on this post because it was the first of its kind in this particular thread.

Are you serious?

Can you think of a particularly good reason why people shouldn't stop doing it? Do you think we should just keep fighting Ifrit every day until the end of time, and it's a good thing that SE has tried to make exactly that happen? I just don't know how people in FF11 got along, barely killing avatars more than a dozen times over the span of several years. We should have forced them to fight them every day for the rest of their lives.

Trolls and apologists will destroy this game, and the official forums will be the juggernaut they ride us all straight to the jaws of defeat in.

People do content. People get what they want. People stop doing content. That is... normal. Expected. It's all part of the plan. And, if you have to do it sparingly enough to get what you want, while keeping it fresh and fun, folks might even help the next generation through it, which is what keeps folks doing content. Not punishing drop rates that make no one want to do it to begin with, and makes them swear off ever doing it again once they have what they want, which means the next generation better help the next generation out, because the previous generation is done with that content for the duration of the game. Period.

That, and it needs to be said again and again so I'll probably re-quote it later too.
