I HATE the magians system in xi. Kill 300 of this and 300 of that oh and then give us 55 of these geodes that have a drop rate worse than the primal weapons. NO NO NO NO NO

Magians was implimented into xi as a time sync to keep ppl playing while they fix xiv to keep ppls money coming in. They are the biggest pain in the backside xi has to offer and not to mention the most BORING thing that they could have given us. Not only are the kill trials something that makes you want to shoot yourself in the foot, having to farm 1-4 ki than kill the same nm 25-50 times...twice and another 33-75 times on top of the insanely boring camping of the 1 hr respawn lottery nm for empy weapons make you wanna shoot yourself in the other foot.

On the bright side these trials also led me to other games such as TERA, Skyrim, Rift and other such games. I cancelled my xi account due to the aby bomb and the magians nightmare, resubscribed after SoA was announced but am so bored with it will most likely recancel my xi subscription within in the next couple weeks so I can give my focus and money to games that deserve my time.

If they want to put in an upgrade system they need to do it another way. The mythics system in xi was nice aside from the insane amount of alex they wanted you to farm. So let me say this to magians in xiv again...

NO
lol, you think relic or mythic quests were better? You know the quests that could take YEARS (in real time) to complete? (if ever) At least with the magian trials, you could at least wind up with a decent enough weapon, so you were actually rewarded for the amount of time you put into it. In additon, the Empyrean weapons weren't nigh impossible to get, (was halfway to a Kannagi when I left XI) I don't mind putting effort into my pursuit of a rare or powerful weapon, but I'd rather not spend a considerable portion of my life on getting endgame gear.
