Echoes of Vana'diel FFXI Alliance Raid

[CVXIV]

Honestly the raid series has made me more interested in trying FFXI but I'm definitely not paying SE two subscriptions lol
Prishe was cute, I always liked her back when I was into Dissidia and I never fully knew where she was from then. It's the same with Shantotto so it's been interesting getting a glimpse of their home

Where in the raid? Trash mob or boss? Which one? I've been running the raid and I've not seen it.

It's a rare drop from the last boss chest. I've only seen it drop once.

Yeah it's a nice idea but good lord. 3 in 24 that you need like 9 of is a lot of runs. Maybe make it so you get 1 per week guaranteed, like the coin or something?

If everybody got everything week 1 there would be even more people unsubbing till next update

The encounters were a good deal spicier then the first Myths raid which was welcome.

The plot is kinda...whatever, but I wasn't expecting much from something that's borrowing from another FF wholesale.

Did a full blind run on patch day with my some of my FC mates and a bunch of randos, had super fun! Bunch of wipes as expected, but this is my favorite alliance raid so far mechanics-wise.

Hello, hello! First off, this is quite literally my first post here on the Forums, so I'm sorry if this is not the place.

I loved this Raid, the bosses, even the gear. But there's one thing that really bugs me out: The Hands gear. They look good, but some dye channels feels off.

For some gear, for example, the 2nd Dye Channel dyes the cloth underneath the armor and the trims. It looks fine and reasonable.

However, for Healing/Fending, the 1st Dye Channel dyes BOTH the armor and the cloth underneath it, while the 2nd Dye Channel dyes only the trim of the armor. It looks like a mess, with everything blending together because of the same dye.









I don't understand why, it feels so weird.


Again, I'm really sorry if this is not the place for me to complain. Just wanted to vent a little after enjoying so much from this Raid and seeing this happening.

Spaghetti code, or spaghetti coding?

I don't know. I really hope it is because of coding shenanigans, and not a art direction thing.

Gotta time-gate the content because the content on its own isn't actually fun amirite?

I think they should increase the number of orchestrion trade-in items that drop. Three is not enough.

I thought it was fine. We usually get 3 or so music drops in each raid.
