Please don't put Wuk Lamat in the patches

[Turtledeluxe]

I like Wuk Lamat. I began the expansion intrigued by a character I perceived as refreshing, even if a little tropey. VA wasn't flawless but in XIV it never really is.

Then I had to speak with her 138 times. Probably more if you count the times not specifically due to a quest.

I'm sure work has already started on the patches. I'm not sure what can be done. Please do not make it 75% "Please talk to Wuk Lamat" again. Please do not write her to be so naive and omnipresent.

Again, I like Wuk Lamat. But even I have had enough.

And if you're wondering, what is the point of this? I know there are critical threads already. But those are mostly "she's bad". I'm more concerned about the future content and also wanted to offer a perspective from someone who enjoyed her character.

7.1 is probably already in the finishing lines story wise. I think she will be there, and players will go "not again". With the reception, I hope they went in crisis mode and at least had a discussion on how to tweak things to limit her presence to the minimun needed for the story. If they didn't, I feel like the public might get pissed, because a lot of players are fed up with her, and it will be like putting salt on an open wound. This whole situation might have a second act, with more visceral reaction. As I said, it's probably too late to change fundamentally 7.1 but that argument might not be enough to avoid the player going "I said I had had enough of this, and we got the exact same thing. That's it, I'm out". The worst of this may still be ahead of us.

My guess is they're gonna be betting on the New Alliance raid to keep us placated until they readjust the story (if they decide to at all) in later patches.

Bold of you assume Wuk Lamat will not be part of the Alliance Raid story

just kill wuk lamat offscreen for the love of god and then her brother will revive her as endless, so we can put her down one more time.

I'm sure this will be the one Wuk Lamat thread that doesn't devolve into just another "she's bad" thread.

That said, I'm betting they'll do the same they did with Lyse. They'll play lip service to her, but we'll have a bigger mystery to go solve, and she'll say "Well, I need to stay here and help my people" and off we'll go.

Yeah I started off liking her but 2 levels into the MSQ I was sick. The lack of her presence made the most (otherwise) boring zone the most enjoyable experience in the expansion. The arcadia plot is amazing, so I know the writers haven't completely fallen off. I would be happy to never see this character ever again, maybe she can be in the background once in awhile 2 expansions later like (poor) Hein seems to get treated. I'm tired of her goofy face, I'm tired of the fist clenching, I'm tired of her stupid WoL face covering axe. I'm tired of her whiny voice. I'm tired of her constantly interjecting herself in moments between me and other characters which should be private one on one talks.

90% of her dialogue is absolutely filler garbage and could be deleted from the game and you'd still get the same point across. Having to endure the worst phase 2 of a final boss everytime I get queued into it thanks to her crashing in to ruin the party is just mind numbingly frustrating. It's time for her to go bye bye. Erenville is owed a proper adventure, and Krile needs to get given much better treatment. The opening trailer promised me a grand adventure with all the characters I actually did care about, and instead it was just relegated to actually being able to only ride the boat and do the fight. While the rest was saved for the end credits.... so after the game is over, I get to see these moments happen... coooooool cool cool.

She wasn't in the normal raid
and it was the best story content so far in DT
