They don't want r/e/m to be the best, so I wouldn't expect any update for plate etc, specially making the ws coming from coin weapon show they knew this would have been an issue.

Also, I'd argue that farming the 30k alexandrite isn't the most time consuming part of a mythic.

Yes and no. It's the part that isn't restricted by entry times or assault tags, since you can just buy it from bazaars, but you still have to get nine digits of gil from SOMEWHERE, and then track it all down.

Can care less about what you spend your money on.

I just thought your example was ummmm....yeah. I'd be very interested to see you 8box any VW, cap lights, and win in a reasonable amount of time.

Think I'd be more impressed by anyone who can play that many accounts at once decently.

Ignoring the bit about being able to 8-box effectively(he's actually remarkable at it, I assure you), you seem to think capping/winning most VW fights is much harder than it actually is.

Show me where I implied that winning is harder than it actually is.

Plus, my original point was how HMP may become very scarce. Low manning the event doesn't mean that HMP can be farmed at a decent rate.

And I don't care what your original point was, you're intentionally breaking off into this stupid tangent about how ***that people have been doing with a single party for ages now is suddenly an Olympic achievement with eight.

Wow. My implication was me not believing he can 8 box, let alone do all the other things in a VW fight. I doubt any one person can play that many characters without scripting.

Just seems to me like a radical claim. I use to tri box regularly to do things like salvage and the such. I'm not saying that no one can do it better but legitimately being able to play 8.....

I can tell you from experience that this is not true, lol.

I mean there's a lot of mythic owners that have capped gil from blinkering and whatnot and for them the other stuff will be time-consuming because Alex is a non-issue for them essentially

But for anybody that didn't do that it is definitely the most time-consuming part.

Yeah, but is Voidwatch II is coming down the pike to add more plates into the system? That's how they addressed Alexandrite, adding NNI and Salvage II.

Because honestly, unless a theoretical Voidwatch II gives plasm instead of cruor, or you can suddenly buy plasm/bayld/anything relevant with cruor, it's not going to matter much, even if it shows up.

Funny thing about that is that they've already screwed mythics again. Some of salvage II is still relevant, sure, but I doubt most are going to spend their playtime doing that instead of farming Delve for stuff that's going to be a far more valuable in the long run.

I mean, given that it feels they've changed their plans multiple times in the past few months (Otherwise outdating all that Meebles stuff makes no sense to me), it's certainly possible they'll budge on it and decide to adjust the requirements for REMs, but I doubt they can do something like that without causing massive nerdrage again.

And I can't dualbox worth a damn-- your point?

Some people are better at things than others.



And again, this has nothing to do with his point. Voidwatch is still plenty doable, people simply require entirely too many bodies.

They should jsut add a crystal trade-in thing, like how you trade worms in to the meeble to get random loot.

Oh, that one's obvious. Meebles was the last piece of Tanaka's vision that went in - a lowman event with a couple of upgrades, quite a few sidegrades, and a bunch of useless stuff to fill it out. But it was still from the old system, and so it got obsoleted like everything else. The only remarkable thing about it is that it was the last one in.

If Salvage II had been the last thing released, we'd have the same discussion about it; "Why did they put out Salvage II just to outclass it a month later?"

Yeah lets ignore all the points and only talk about the one you want to right?

It's not a question if Voidwatch is doable. It's if enough will do it for HMP (at least that's what I've been talking about). Empy holders may find it very difficult to finish their weapons if supply is very limited. I also don't feel that low manning VW will be a viable option to 95 an empy weapon.

I guess I lumped everything besides alexandrite into one category. The total alexandrites needed costs more than empy and relics, that's for sure.

Do I really need to go back one page and point out where your argument split seven different ways? You went from arguing the "impracticality of HMP collection" to "nobody does voidwatch" to "how can I proc with only a few people" to "lets focus on his mules".

He already agreed that farming HMP isn't practical, you're just bitching at him to *** at him.

Shouldn't that be backwards though? I mean, if they're going to be just town gear might as well lower the requirements? lol Idk, seems a bit counterintuitive that way.

Please be on your way. You were already wrong on my implication.

3/4 of those claims above are incorrect(the first is correct).

I think empy users will have a right to complain when/if VW dies. It's doubtful they'll make HMP easier to obtain.

I agree with you but I think they clearly want us to focus on new stuff and after all the crying about kannagi and so on (some of them still 85) being outdated I doubt they will make it any easier.
I believe(could be totally wrong) they will just slowly outdate the boosted one instead of totally trashing them in one update.

My god, my brain is starting to hurt. Let me explain just one of those for you.

Proccing!

My argument is that people bring more people to proc. My single word statement doesn't mean I don't think VW can't be procced with less or question how it can be done.

VW is usually done with randoms...This means that you don't know who you're getting a lot of the times. So by bringing an alliance of 18 people, you increase your chances at capping lights.

So instead of typing all this ***out, I used one word.

"how can I proc with only a few people" This is your interpretation of a single word. So please just stop already. That's great that you want to defend your friend and all but yeah...at least understand what the other person is saying.

It is in my sack and you can see I only have 2 buffs on, as well as the timers display for the buffs.

In case it wasn't obvious, that kill was without using my harp.

Protip: when you're on the side of the guy saying "...or you dumb brain to hard to see the ironic part that ***", it's probably time to wrap it up.
