Please Change Guild Leves...

[Mack]

Change them from a bore fest time sink to something fun and it can take up all 30 minutes of a leve for all I care but don't make me run around obstacles (which is what these maps were built to be) and artificial time sinks to get to the mobs I need to kill only to kill it in 1 minute and warp back to camp.

And please, and I know many of you guys agree with me, hit the thumbs up button so this thread gets some attention and reply as to how you think they can be better. And just to explain why I'm venting now at this very moment, its because I just did the leve "Sweet Vengeance" for the millionth and a half time and those of who who have done it can see the stupid unnecessary time sink that is built into a quest like that (and others like it) where it is just no fun at all.

The only change I want is to see the leves disappear whenever you fail, abandon, or succeed. I hate that people abandon the leves just before completing

That's it? so everyone else actually finds guildleves fun? so much for this gaming having any future then.

i dont mind them at all
and your just gonna argue with anyone who posts otherwise then what you stated


also instead of all this whining to change/remove features, pushing to ADD stuff is a better idea

the leves are the only thing worth doing at this point in the game so they need to stay for now. i do leves and craft because quite frankly nm's have become jokes. you grind another class to 50 for what? there is nothing to do once you get there.

I don't think they should go, I think they have great potential but they're designed to be a time sink and they're not designed to be fun. Even crafting leves, for example, Momodi's Breakfast has you running to Black Brush to grab the ingredients before turning them in. Not to mention, this isn't the worst one, there was one (I don't know if it still exists) that was a low level crafting leve that has you going to a high rank region in Thanalan to turn it in. There is nothing fun about dying a hundred times trying to get your reward.

But either way, and more importantly, the battlecraft leves are built to take all but a couple minutes to take down the mobs and the rest of it you're running around. They should make them so that you actually have something to do for 15-20 minutes of the 30 minute interval *other* than running. The example I gave of the leve is great at illustrating how stupid the design of leves are.

Not sure why people are so hostile on these forums lately. I agree with you, leves are boring and could be a lot better. Editing the battle system and changing the armory system + adding a job system is the best way of doing this. After that they can adjust mobs difficulty.

This. All the battle changes in the world means jack with absolutely nothing in the game to do. I don't feel or understand the need for auto attack which would break pretty much how combat functions in this game. Aside from that, all this crying that changes need to be in place before adding content is retarded. You can tweak the battle system along the way and add things to it instead of completely overhauling it. Most people are bored to tears because of nothing to do not the actual battle system.

Seriously the leves need an overhaul. Im of the viewpoint that I would rather get my faction points rather than fail a leve just for the sp from redoing it next reset, and failing it in a perpetual cycle just to rank up slightly faster.
The other issue with this, is now in our sparsely populated servers you actually cannot join parties if you dont have Dunesfolk or All Cracked Up.
Im not saying its wrong to abandon leves, I just think it promotes an attitude that is not needed for this game.

Fail levs are dumb. Just make it so you can choose whatever levs are available in that particular region and streamline the sp given at the end. Only randomize the gil, mark rewards, and faction points. Who wants to hope and pray you get the same random levs as your friends so you can do lev linking? Doing any levs without links in a group is a waste of time.

SE, hire me.
