    an idea for SE, to radically change Raise system.

    Don't you get pissed off, when you have a bad night, losing craploads of XP buffer/De-level in events? or be in a crap XP party dieing multiple times losing more XP than gaining.

    It seems like a waste of time and a depressing task to regain XP buffer and XP you have lost at a bad party.

    Would you guys favour an increased weakend timer based raised system with NO Exp lost?

    I was thinking:

    Raise = 15 min weakened status
    Raise II = 10 min weakened status
    Raise III = 3-5 min weakend status

    It would totally change gameplay, and maybe SE can bring back MPK. and more people would probably come back or play this game? re-release FFXI in stores with a flashy sticker on it saying "Now with No EXP lost*"



    God how I miss MPK, those were the fun days.

    would you guys like this idea?

    Huh?

    So we still lose exp, but taking lower tier raises fucks us even further?

    What if every Leaping Lizzy dropped Bounding boots? That would seal the deal for most!

    EDIT: Instead of just ZAM!ing you - I'll say your idea is Zamtastic instead.

    Yeh the problem is, you didn't think it through. Just imagine leveling a low level job, and having to halt for 15 minutes everytime someone dies (not that it doesn't happen now... but >.>). Shit just wouldn't work, which is why this just won't work.

    EXP is easy to get anyways, and it's something to do when you are bored.

    If anything your weakness timer should be lower depending on the shittier raises you take.

    The idea of longer weaken is stupid. And how will bring MPK'ing back into the game help us get players back?

    You Fail.

    The whole point is, who gives a shit about exp? Go get a full buffer before you do merits, just keep it on exp, and you will always be capped AND get merits! What a novel idea.

    I'm suprised how many ppl dont understand this...

    I fucking hate seeing ppl gloat about their merits, yet when they die, they delvl to 74, and they beg for a r3.

    You people would all hate me then. Right now, I'm meriting my RNG with a 1300 XP buffer... I've gone meriting with a 7 XP buffer on my WAR before... <_< I've never capped XP, and I absolutely refuse to. The way I look at it -- The 40k XP I use to cap my job off could isntead be 4 merits, which permanently help my character. I just ENM t o keep my buffers up, and constantly merit outside of that.
