Magitaur Card needs another acquisition method (moved)

[Jin-Torna]

Hello,


Also, I usually don’t post in forums—this is actually my first time doing so—but I felt strongly enough about this to share my feedback.

As a casual player and avid Triple Triad card collector, I’ve found the recent patch introducing the Forked Tower quite disheartening. Specifically, the new Magitaur Triple Triad card obtainable only from the final boss chest of the hard mode content poses a frustrating challenge.

It feels especially disappointing because there is no normal mode version of this dungeon available—only hard mode has been implemented—yet the card cannot be obtained through any alternative means.

While I enjoy collecting cards at my own pace, I don’t feel comfortable diving into hard mode content—especially for a card that isn’t particularly strong gameplay-wise. However, as a dedicated collector, I still want the opportunity to complete my collection.

Would it be possible to introduce an alternative way to obtain this card that suits more casual players?

Here are a few suggestions that could help make it more accessible:

- Purchase it from an NPC for X amount of Silver or Gold Coins
- Drop from regular Treasure Chests
- Drop from Bunny Chests
- Drop from Pot Chests
- Purchase for X amount of MGP at the Gold Saucer

I sincerely hope this feedback can be passed along to the development team. This is the first time a Triple Triad card has been locked exclusively behind the final boss of a hard mode duty.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

こんにちは。
私は普段フォーラムに投稿することはないのですが、今回はどうしてもお伝えしたいことがあり、初めて書き込みをさせていただきます。
私はカジュアルプレイヤーであり、トリプルトライアドのカードコレクターでもあります。今回のパッチで実装された「フォークドタワー」には少し落胆しました。特に、ハードモードのコンテンツの最終ボスの宝箱からしか入手できない新しいトリプルトライアドカードがある点に、強い不満を感じています。
このダンジョンにはノーマルモードが存在せず、ハードモードしか実装されていないにもかかわらず、カードは他の手段で入手できないというのは非常に残念です。
私は自分のペースでカード集めを楽しんでいますが、戦闘力の高くないカードのために、ハードコンテンツに挑戦するのは気が引けます。それでも、コレクターとしてはやはりすべてのカードを集めたいという気持ちがあります。
カジュアルプレイヤーでもこのカードを入手できる別の手段を導入していただけないでしょうか？
以下のような代替案をご提案させていただきます：
- NPCから一定数のシルバーコインまたはゴールドコインで購入できるようにする
- 通常の宝箱からドロップ
- バニーチェストからドロップ
- ポットチェストからドロップ
- ゴールドソーサーで一定数のMGPと交換可能にする
このフィードバックが開発チームに届くことを心から願っております。トリプルトライアドのカードがハードコンテンツの最終ボスのみに限定されているのは、今回が初めてのことだと思います。
ご検討いただき、誠にありがとうございます。

This isn't the first time a card was locked behind more difficult content. We've had cards behind Ex-only trials. We've had cards locked behind higher floors of deep dungeons. We've had cards locked behind clearing the harder content in a zone like Bozja or Eureka.

I'm not saying I disagree, but there is a precedent for it.

While this is partially true, this is the first time they've locked a card behind *synced* content that will probably not become easier. The EX trial cards have become more accessible with time, the option to do them unsynced has made grinding fairly easy, and getting to floor 30+ in any deep dungeon is not a tremendous task for the average player either. All of the cards for Eureka and Bozja were made acquirable outside the field operation zones from TT battles in Kugane and Gangos respectively. However the Magitaur card is now the only card that demands doing a fairly hard piece of content (obnoxious entry method aside) which will always remain at this difficulty/level, and in all likelihood become even harder as interest in the Forked Tower dies down.

After having completed the Forked Tower myself, I can confidently say I am not eager to grind out the instance just for a *chance* to get the card from the last boss. I agree with the original post's sentiment and think the card needs an alternative method of acquisition, but I also think a compromise could be made to not circumvent the Tower entirely.

In addition to the proposed methods, I think that adding an NPC to the Phantom Village that would offer the card as a reward also fits in line with their implementation of previous cards tied to field operations. Making the card purchasable from a vendor in exchange for some amount of sanguinite could also be a consideration, and wouldn't directly undercut the need to still venture into the Forked Tower if you really want it. With the only real use for sanguinite being +2 gear upgrades at the moment, another sanguinite sink couldn't hurt and would alleviate this arguable oversight.

Bozja, Eureka, Deep Dungeons - all forever sync'd. Just saying.

The Bozja and Eureka NPCs that had the triad cards were added toward the end of the lifespan of that content as being "on level". So thatd be in the neighborhood of patch 7.55 if its in the plans.
