Uh..How can you say that already? They haven't even flipped the things off of Maint. mode. Heck, it will probably take at least two or three weeks to see exactly how it'll effect it.

I think they have started out well but it would've been nice to have the Abyssea NPCs in a better place but I don't mind a small walk. Having that, the OP warps, ToAU and Jeuno AH in the home nations it's nice. Keep a Jeuno Earring if you think you're going to miss Jeuno. 30 Charges you can use in a day. Or walk it from Qufim OP. The only thing I see needing to go to Jeuno for is /sh PUGs.
td;lr - Nope, i think they did great.

jeuno or wg has always been a hub for shouting for runs, xp parties, items, and everything else... I agree that having a abyssea warp guy in home cities, is a nice change, but i think it will far from rid port jeuno of congestion issues.. they should have added warp people to other parts of jeuno instead

New Abyssea support NPCs have been added to the following areas:
-Gilburt, Ivan Port San d’Oria (I-8)
-Erich, Ernst Port Bastok (K-11)
-Jerrett, Kierron Heavens Tower, Windurst
That is our relief....

The Abyssea NPCs were the problem and now we have relief. I fail to understand what you are complaining about.
Do you want them to remove Joachim and Horst completely? You know that Joachim is a quest NPC right?
I suppose they could chop off his ability to hand out stones but that wouldn't solve anything. I'm sure there will still be people in P.Jeuno simply because of the shouts that will go there, but now at least the rest of us don't have to go there to use maw teleports or when we want to roll out on our own.
tl;dr The only people that will be left in P.Jeuno will be the trolls and the people doing /shs & PUGs

It's funny, at least Sandy and Basty have these guys in open districts, but putting the Windy one in Heaven's Tower is just silly. They took the OP guy in Bastok out of the Metalworks for a good reason, why repeat the same mistake?

All they have to really do is add some global channel / LS for everyone to advertise things in, and poof! Less lag since people won't feel like they're missing out on anything, and they'll be in other zones or even doing trials.

Hey, it's perfect for Bastok and San d'Oria, what with the AH merger as well.

Unfortunately, Port Bastok does not have an AH :(
They should just toss them in Woods/Southern/Mines district.

I dont really see the fail to be honest...
With all the AH combined, 2 npcs in each city (sure 1 it a stone npc and 1 is a teleport npc), a way to whitegate in each city, an easy way to the past..Sounds great to me. Im moving my HP as soon as i can log in.
Even though heaven tower may of not been the best place to of put windys. Imo put them in the starter cities was the best way to go about this.

It should be in Bastok mines.
OP guy, Abyssea dudes, Chocobo stables and an Auction house.
What goes through SE's head when they do updates just baffles me sometimes.

I'm surprised they didn't add two Abyssea NPCs in Whitegate (which is where I was thinking of making my HP). I guess I'll stick with Port Jeuno.
Also, it doesn't help that the AH merger won't take place until the next version update . . .

I agree with you. They should and probably will be moved to Mines / Woods. Or at least if they're intent on putting them in Windy Walls, move them near the A.H since that's where the Taru Warpers throw you at anyways.

I understand the whole concept of P. Jeuno will always be the main shout hub for Abyssea runs, I'm not complaining just pointing out that they did a fail job at NPC placement in cities.

You are wrong.
Known Issues
Despite all auction houses being consolidated to Jeuno, auction house NPCs in the three nations mistakenly continue to state that each nation’s auction house functions independently. This issue will be resolved in the next version update.
^ From http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/7267
They did merge all the AHs. The only issue they're having is that the NPCs in the nations just don't know about it yet / give incorrect speech.

Why did Windy get screwed so bad in NPC placement, seriously Heavens Tower is just about the worst place they could have put them (other than those house out in the middle of the woods lol)...
That would be like putting Bastok's in Metalworks upper floor or Sandy's in Chateau d'Oraguille courtyard, certainly not making it easier to access them XD

Actually hang on . . the notes read:
"Despite all auction houses being consolidated to Jeuno, auction house NPCs in the three nations mistakenly continue to state that each nation’s auction house functions independently. This issue will be resolved in the next version update."
Does this mean the merger did take place? Sorry, I'm not certain . . .

This is a joke right, Heavens Tower? Windurstians such as myself got boned compared to the other cities.
That's seriously worse than the worst spot I thought they would ever put a home nation Abyssea NPC.
In other news, Whitegate is sad panda because it didn't get an Abyssea NPC that really would have reduced Port Jeuno congestion in a more appropriate way.

Maybe the playerbase or linkshells will take it upon themselves to make it easier in the long run.Who knows maybe it will catch on that for Visions stuff,you go to windy,Scars for sandy and Heroes for bastok.Or maybe certain LS's will only gather in w/e city from now on since it'll make it easier on themselves.
