Petition: for Imperial Invasion event

[Skeezix]

If I ever mention XI it is usually to draw attention to the fact that this is infinitely easier than said "headache". This is easier and it lasted 12 hrs today. If we pay attention to the signs we might be in for longer periods of it being up and therefor a much easier goal to obtain. Have I ever seen 20+ primal weapons drop in 5 days? No. This is an improvement either way in a system they are refusing to touch up in its current state for whatever reason.

We beat to death every new time sink that shows up in this game. I get it, you hate it, but I've already listened to the whining about it concerning many other things in this game that are much less accessible than these two useful/fashionable items. Three weeks left and still nothing but complaining/petitions. "Hmmmm no Halloween event is coming, let's see if we can force the developer's hand for something that means SOOOOOOO much."

I am not attacking anyone.

I simply believe it is fine as it is.

As other people have stated it is already easier now than when it started due to more spawns for longer periods. For the record I still don't have the tricorn. You simply cannot just keep making things easier because people complain.

You have your opinion, I have mine. Let's just leave it at that.

Seeing I spent sleepless days, if not weeks, trying to get my imperial tricorne and it'd make it less rare by making it easier to acquire... I'm gonna say no to this petition.

It already invades a lot more often than it did back when it started. Higher drop rates would be too much.

RNG trolled you, now you wanna troll others :P

A lot of people I know got it the first round of the event in 1 to 7 kills. RNG is just hater to some people, dont make it a reason why everyone else should suffer.

How many times do you have to flip a coin to get heads? As many times as it takes. So some people will go 200 kills no hat. Completely legitimate under the RNG system.

That is why it must die. SE should work with ranges and averages to create a consistent experience that you know each kill wasn't a waste of your time. 100% token systems work for that, though we can have other solutions if people get bored of tokens lol.

The mech should be dropping a stone or something that everyone can loot, 10 checks failed = choose one item. Stone = the ghetto loot system fix till 2.0 :P lol

Higher drop rates would be too much? I honestly don't agree. I've done this event with successful claims from beginning to end with small groups and this event is too much.
It may not be a big deal to people that can sink that kind of time easily, but it is when there isn't enough time left.
I get how many of you are saying that it discredits the people who already achieved getting the hat. For those that have it, fantastic, good for you, honestly I played FF XI and I didn't like investing 12 hours of my time, or 6 hours of my time for nothing except gear that needs to be repaired.
This event is getting people on edge or just plain annoyed, it's obvious that something needs to change in it. The Primal weapons are just as bad, though not equatable as these guys are easy kills. The tokens I suggested wouldn't be from every kill, that would be way too ridiculous. I'm talking maybe 1 in 20 kills would get a token and then you may need 10 or so tokens to get a hat.
This rewards players who are consistently doing the event, and the hats aren't tradable anyway so people who feel it would cause too much of an influx are missing the point. The reason behind an event is to be rewarded for participating in it. The way things are now it uses an outdated playing style and only really rewards people who want to blow all of their time on it. The other events haven't felt this annoying and there's only 2 things to "get" here.

You guys have no idea what painful/contested drop rates are....

Try camping mobs in EQ on a pvp server that spawned once a week and no one ever shared the spawn timer....

Camps are a joke now where everyone wants the reward without any of the work.

Sounds like someone complaining about platformers nowadays not being as hard as Ghosts'n Goblin.

Hey I could do this as well.

Drop rate in PSO were 1/299K for certain weapons when you didn't have the right ID (and even with the right ID it would be 1/105K). You guys have it so easy on FF XI and FF XIV! 1% and you say its low! What a joke!!

Yeah lol..besides, I've played harder platformers.

XIV players massively said no to direct competition and FFA PvP already, so I don't even bother mentioning that part. Even SE said that PvP will be regulated when implemented.

(Also when you join up a PvP server, you know what you signed for, no room for complaint there.)
