can't address the point so meme about it? got it
the only 'goalpost' i've ever made is that relaxing requirements encourages leeching which alters the progression for everyone and degrades the game
you can't make content that's too hard to sell, but price and scope still matter..

Just how much money we talking about here? I'll post pics of my hobbit feet for money. I have very little shame these days.

I would not in the least be surprised to find out Asura actually has RMT selling Aminon kills to people that just don't feel like dealing with it.

Call me a broken record but...what's to stop 2 of those "I'll just play a different game" people from teaming up and killing 1 or 2 basement bosses? How about 3 or 4 of them group up, randomly when their schedules line up, and doing 6 boss runs?
No "cult" required. A person on asura doing a shout instead of paying for it? Perish the thought!
Much easier to buy gil from the 1000+ RMT on the server than ro actually do the content.... or just cut out the middle man and buy the CONTENT from the RMT. |

Why does there seem to be some kind of animosity between official server players and private server players? I played on Horizon a back when it launched, and while I enjoyed myself it made me realize that I simply didn't have the time to really dive in like I did as a kid. Which is why the official servers are more tailored for someone like me.
I understand the appeal of both. What I don't understand is this weird rivalry. Very good chance the Venn diagrams for Public server and Private servers overlap very little, so one doesn't really affect the other, no?

After playing boss with a small business for a while. I realized the holy truth of the average worker. Essentially, only about a handful of people are getting the good pay and promotion simply because they can do the work of 2-3 people and always seem to be available for everything you need. Everyone else are expendable. If you aren't the memorable superstar, you are another cog in the machine and you can get replaced very quickly.
I've been a lead for a couple years, and this is hitting me hard now that I'm rebuilding the team from basically scratch. I've stopped more than once to think "Are my standards too high or does this person really just lack this much?".
Some days I'm doing the work of 3-4 people instead of actually leading. |

Capitalism is like PUGB or King of the Hill. Kill people, take their loot, upgrade your weapons to kill better and die with the most loot.
Such an accurate description of every attempt at communism ever made... well the killing of people and taking their loot part. Turns out people are very motivated to not "donate" their private property to a government, so that government ends up having to use guns and ditches to acquire said private property.

Yes this is just how humans are. Most will only do the bare minimum to not get fired. A handful really take pride in what they do and will push themselves, sometimes unhealthily, to solve challenges and move things forward. Good management recognizes the distinction and takes care of those highly motivated people while using the bare minimum folks to do the menial or repetitive work and make space for the super stars. Poorly managed organizations end up not doing this and cause those super stars to either become demotivated, or just leave for another place.
After a certain amount of time, every employee (including those superstars) will go home and decide if all their hardwork was worth it. Some people will make a shift and decide to work only so they can develop their passions, which could just be growing grapes in their backyard. Not everyone dreams of work from age 18-65 the entire time. |

They could put mesosiderite in there so soloers would only need millions of galli to finish their primes which should keep them logging in for a while lol.

Platted Wuchang finally, whats next on the list?
|
|

|

The last 3 WoCs I did I just zerged right from the get go with Yaegasumi and he dies before even getting the opportunity to use any 1 hours. I just go SAM BRD COR WHM Sylvie KingofHearts.
|
|

|

Well enough -
DD is R20 SAM, which should be more than fine. could be cor here.
tank can fulfill epeoRUN or iGEO.
whm is non-rema but well geared, can swap for non-idris geo.
brd is REA. can swap for cor here.
both cors are +8 so that's not really a factor, but only first char has R20 rp'd. latter two have always been alts.
If I can get away with holding everything on the tank and whittling away with superbuffed SAM reliably, then that's really what i'm looking to do. I might just bring people on for woc and kou just to be safe (and I don't need the drops, so it'll benefit someone, i'm sure).

How geared are you / your group? RP'd Ody gear? Empy +3?
You can definitely just zerg everything if you're lowmanning and have proper lineup with damage contributions from your BRD & COR. I've duo'd Kouryu with DRG + BRD using SV + CC and savage spamming for 99ks.
WoC you could just throw a RDM with enaero (or have a dedicated proc using Aero) to lock the dangerous 2hrs (SV for example). Enspell is easiest since you just auto attack until you proc the 2hrs you want, then push it to bracelet mode and can safely zerg from there.
There's some nuance, but that's the gist.

|
|
I'm probably overthinking it but anyone got some cliffnotes on escha AA's and gods/woc lowman comps?
Wondering how much I can get away with facerolling or what needs some degree of coordination (kouryu for sure, maybe woc? not sure about rest), since it's been so long and I genuinely don't remember the quirks otherwise.

Hello all, I want to make sure I am understanding Blood Pact Delay/potency correctly:
When using my Blood Pact Ward abilities I am at a 30 sec recast. The only way to have this lowered to 20 secs is with favor active?
You must keep 670 summing skill in both precast & midcast sets to ensure the maximize buff duration, accuracy, damage, etc?
precast only. that's when the tier matters and recast timer is initialized on avatar.
favor potency and timer delay build up together in unison to a natural cap.
wearing skill or +favor immediately bumps to current natural tier + bonus, or drops back down to current natural tier when unequipped.
Dismissal/death reset favor counter. using a bloodpact of either type boosts favor potency faster depending on MP cost. you can use a ward pact then a rage to get a better rage recast timer. |

I was gonna say have a real fun time and write it in C, but COBOL would be even better

It will not be python or lua!
I plan to have it hosted on a dedicated web page to use. With an optional lua (future development) that will parse your items and let you choose to use the full item catalog or only the items on your character.
Need to write it in Cobol or Turbo Pascal

Sapphires and starstones. Hypothetically useful, in practice there's not much point in them as a prize since you have to just go do the content you'd have gotten them from anyway to use them. Basically just like omen cards except they're worth 3k to an NPC.
Naturally, they'll be part of the loud thud pool.

I don't have much to add, but I wish you luck with the development.
For hosting, costs don’t have to be high, plenty of solid VPS providers offer plans in the $5–9 range. The trade-off is handling setup and maintenance yourself, but it’s a good learning opportunity if you’re up for it.
From what you’ve described, this sounds like a straightforward full-stack app. Especially if you containerize it.
Hey if it is that low, would be amaze! Got me excited about that. :D |

It could be as simple as feeding earrings you don't want to a goblin for points.
Or excess upgrade rocks. Aside from Mesos, most groups doing Sortie on the regular are going to have way more of everything else than they will ever be able to use.
The goal is not to let players hurry up and get perfect earrings, it's to have some kind of path to do so as a nice side bonus for the people putting in the time in the muffin mines.

Cases will always be lottery. I don't really care about earrings personally, my motivation for SOrtie was always the armor. That said, it would have been nice if the earrings worked on an RP system where you could upgrade the augment. The problem is that they would probably force you to play that job in Sortie and ruin your meta galli farm comp. The alternative would be to force you to spend galli for the upgrades and people already cry about splitting time between armor and primes...
