@Ina & Afania Let's also not forget was fail FFXIII was, if it weren't for Vanille and Jurgens hand lotion, I'd have no reason to play FFXIII.

I still didn't. I just googled ***like I did with Fran after my first playthrough ;3

are you actually implying that when people are angry about a change that they'll dispel that anger if that change is reversed

I guess you haven't read these pages at all and only assume people are raging for epeen sake. If that were the case everyone would have a raging hardon because of the high D on these weapons. Instead, that's not it at all.
However, they are raging for no goddamn reason. Literally, none at all. All these anti-logic based assumptions about a game that half of these people are either bitching about at a change in the drop of a hat or they quit/are quitting now and the other half are nerdraging over a loss in their new favorite flavor of the content.

Then, add on how they'll all change tune in a week when SE realizes that was a bad move. Then, matsui isnt Satan again, Tanaka is the ungodly anti-christ of everything ever, and we will still continue to have R/E/M shout groups like nothing ever happened.

Enu is correct, SE isn't dumb, as long as everyone goes to the official forums, screams blue in the face. They'll get the message. Or hit them in the pocket and dont renew your subscription, nothing changes things like cancelled payments.

So when the Adoulin versions of prestige weapons are released, no one here would bother to work on them because they're too attached to their Ukon/Rag/Whatever?

I have the slight feel there won't be new prestige weapons.

RDM/NIN Blink nuke style. Almost all content was killable using this strategy.

The expansion will bring on a REAL challenge that hasn't been seen since early Zilart and early CoP (before all of the content nerfs and extended merit additions). And people will complain for a while, and later adapt and have fun.

Those challenges died with Abyssea and the raise of the level cap.
The challenges were dead long before that. Much of the challenges came from us just not knowing the best way to do things IE when pld would live in VIT gear to tank HNMs.

Are you forgetting how it started? Stuff like carabosse or iratham were insane at 80 cap. Aegis didn't break the mdt barrier yet either so even with 18 it was pure rape. 1 atma slot with meh atma and low hp. Nothing was easy about it lol

Can you imagine trying to trio lacovie or eccentric eve then
Don't know about lacovie or EE but could have sworn I remember someone tri boxing Carabosse... digging around to see if I can find it, they also had a thf hitting it once just for the TH.

They'll work on them, but god help the weapon if its even 10-80 damage higher than relics. Cause damage is the devil and if i worked for 2 months-2 years on it it should be the most worshipped peice of golden code ever. Oh, and dont change the DD Zerg everything setup either,we like that too cause it makes the golden god weapons that survived the apocotaco useful.

We don't even know whether they're making SoA prestige weapons, it seems that SE is dead set on erasing the concept of R/E/M. So why would SE make a new set of legendary weapons if they want to do gear reset every 4 months? Isn't the main concept of legendary weapon is "the best, not easily replaced" to begin with?

And I don't know what's left in FFXI that's interesting without the concept of R/E/M, it IS one major selling point in FFXI. It's not like FFXI's game play mechanics is even fun or super awesome to begin with. Other MMO doesn't need it, because other MMO is simply more fun to play with without it.

Nothing is more exciting than having a bad *** weapon with cool name tied to past FFXI heroes, with unique WS you can't use on other weapons. And once you finish it everyone talk about it. It just worked well in the past, that even if you don't have it it created an emotional value in the community that makes the game interesting.

And without it it's like FFXI lost 1 aspect that's attractive, but not many other fun aspect left.

And so is this entire thread, really. Or, any of the other wasted internet space with the same theme.

Literally 42 pages of bitching and moaning and counter flaming. Over something that may well be fixed by the end of the month.

EE was actually extremely easy if you kited her around the large rock formation near the wivre pops. BLU/WAR cannonball ftw.

So does anyone know how to obtain these weapons? I would understand peoples current reactions if they were easy to get. Just because it's in the game doesn't mean everyone's gonna get one.

you either get one in pool from NMs spawned with pop items for normal mobs, or you grind enough of the points "new campaign style" to buy them.

If that's too hard you go to the AH and buy a 300 damage scythe etc.

This was the one I was thinking of which is someone else. It's level 85 but I don't really doubt it could have been done at 80 if people we were ballzier and didn't mind a longer fight.

Most NMs actually got more difficult the more people you brought to them which was a change from pre abyssea content that lead to it seeming more difficult than it was. Even now I still prefer to be the only melee on Briareus unless there are mages out the wazoo rather than deal with him spamming tp moves.

People kept saying this about XIV at release as well and we all know how that turned out. Most of the bitching and moaning in the thread actually comes from people accusing others of bitching and moaning ironically.

The difference between 80 and 85 was HUGE. No one understood procs or utilized atma properly. RR/GH didn't exist. The time period that everything happened is incredibly important.
