New NMs

[Scarface]

Of course you're assuming you get the pop and not the other 3 LS' standing around all day. Lol so now i'm a baddie because I don't feel we need artificial barriers to prevent someone a chance to even do the encounter huh?

You're a baddie because you don't see how having 24hr NM pops with 1hr random windows can pose other difficulties other than being able to camp it.

Oh yeah, the difficulty to stay awake until 3 in the morning to be there when it pops and have to go to work at 9am (without having had the claim of course)? The difficulty to wait for hours without just dying of boredomeness? I'm very curious about what 'difficulties' you are talking about.

You forgot the "proness" of getting the claim from the other 3 LS'.

The point of a 24 hour NM if you can't camp it every time. Do you not understand that? You have to be commited to the game to get what you want. You can't just go get it anytime you want.

Did you even play XI?? Like seriously? If you attention span can't last 3 hours then why are you playing an MMO? You probably wouldn't have even been able to get an exp PT if you're the ADHD.

I'm okay with 20+ hour respawns as long as the rewards are based on contribution rather than whoever has the fastest claimbot.

The claiming system of NMs in XI made claim bots completely ineffective. It was all luck and commitment to show and have a shot.

Lol of course I played FFXI and lol about 'Not camping it everytime' (works on paper but you know how those no lifers are). Commitment to a game? Sure the psychologists would love to discuss that one with you lol. Who talked about gettting things anytime ones want?
I did all the endgame shit and stopped playing FFXI for one simple reason: Time sink activities that had nothing to do with challenge!
My attention is focused at my work! I play to have fun. About my 'exp PT' epxerience, I was RDM so no problem getting a party or getting to cap. Better gears doesn't mean better players. It just means you have a better tool, doesn't mean you necessarely do better with it.
Actually, I shouldn't even have replied to that post. Just attacks, no arguments whatsoever, uselss post

Guess you never heard of NASA.

And people want this back? I better go back to FPS, RTS, or fighting games that actually reward those that put effort into their victory if this gets implemented.

With what? A "YOU WIN!" screen?

Is that what you want in XIV? You want to play for a month and feel like you beat the game?

not really i seen a bot claim before they use a hack to know where the nm was going to appear. I seen a few hacks that claimed the nm before it even spawn and no one was with in range of it.

I think it's already been established that you have no idea what you're talking about.

I'll say it again. A PATCH LATER IN XI PUT A RANDOM TIMER ON NMs THAT WOULD STUN YOU IF YOU TRIED TO CLAIM TO FAST. CLAIM BOTS DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. YOU'RE JUST MAD YOU DIDN'T CLAIM.

Guess you never heard of NASA.

It took me a minute to get this! LOL

You're taking it out of context friend.

I do find it funny that all genre I brought up do bring up a victory/result screen, heh.

DO YOU READ?????????? Let's say a mob (a monster for people like you) pops in 3 different zones. So you're all spread out, it pops in 1 of the zones and kills half your party, the rest of you get there, but half to pull some shit out to even survive. The rest of the people come and watch you fight lagging you to death because they want you to die, your weakened comrades come back and start fighting....This is the shit you will not experience with forced pop NMs, or instances..

THAT IS A LAYER OF DIFFICULTY CAN YOU NOT SEE THAT? Or all you see is "ZOMG 24hr NM NOOO"
