Petition: for Imperial Invasion event

[Velhart]

Remember, the original intent of XIV was to be as different from FFXI as possible. Token systems and the like were used in pretty much every end-game event after Limbus's introduction. If they just...you know, built off of FFXI like they should have, we'd probably have had something akin to 1,000 - 50,000 tokens required to purchase armors from dungeons.

"Anything" would be better than the system they gave us. Even if the token requirements were ridiculous, at least you would be progressing towards something instead of completely wasting your evening and no one getting anything.

With the armory system, even if people did get their full DL set, they could made the token system based around that it would take those 7 months to get every DL set. But they decided to be lazy and not come up with a working system like this when they already made a half-ass one for Ifrit/Moogle and got it completely right with Garuda. With how successful Garuda's system was, they couldn't of added this for DL. I don't understand them and anyone who was not the item team had much better ideas for the system. They do not deserve to have a place of thought in the 2.0 team if this is their ideals.

I'm not sure the devs thought this event through in the slightest. Out of six group kills, we got a single hat. It's extremely lucky we even got to hold claim on the group six times considering how many people were doing this in the other areas.

It would be one thing if this were an instance and we had no competition, but for it to be an open world NM that only spawns for a few hours a time randomly throughout the week? And there's only four up at any time on a server? Idiocy.

<-- This dude Agrees with the OP

Drop rates ain't that bad tbh. Thing is that most people don't kill it effectively and alot of the elite die while returning, so no drop. Although, it is abit of a silly event considering u need to slingshot it just to kill it.

You can straight tank it, but this is basically true, people kill it as they lose claim and thus no drops. It's not 100% drop but it's a fuckton higher when you properly kill it.

I think Camate was too subtil but what I understand is that these items will be available even in 2.0 since they are not on the list they provided and according to this response.

Thus the "There is still a good amount of time to keep trying." following "don't panic!".
The Imperium won't disappear, only the way to get the items may be different.

It is on the list

Items to Become Unobtainable
The following items will become unobtainable:

• Dated items
• Weathered gear
  * Weathered weapons and tools will remain obtainable.
• Items obtained through seasonal events
• Rewards for achievements that will become unattainable in FFXIV: ARR, such as the Dalamud horn
• Items obtained through events associated with the coming of the Seventh Umbral Era, such as over-aspected clusters

Sort of :/

Primals are related to the umbral era and yet we know for a fact they persist.

We also know that garleans will still be around in 2.0.

Definitely that bolded part you have suggests against, but SE has set precedence for as well. (Nor does it make sense a hat that elite troopers wear would magically disappear from all ranks once a meteor hits... so.. :/)

Lol, mad baby penguin! He loose his milky bottle :P

I am still trying to figure out why they would make an event that's clearly for alliances in a game that can't form alliances. Then they add to that by making only one group of mobs responsible for the drop so that only one group can farm them at a time. Quality event SE
