I had no warnings either, and I only did maybe 10-15 duping runs and got one completed piece from it, and the tech support guy said it's a permanent ban. This is like the fucking FFXI apocalypse.

And before idiots start getting all high-and-mighty about it, keep in mind that most of the endgame people that knew their shit are gone now. Have fun logging into your truly dying game.

lol

“Dying game”, two full expansions, six mini expansions, one “finale” expansion, and one continuing story content ongoing now thirteen years after this statement

It was pretty fun jumping back into it last year.

Made a bunch of relics, curb stomped some old content for nostalgia sake, then sold the new account for a stupid nice profit.

Absolutely mind boggling people not only still buy accounts and Gil, but that they’ll pay top dollar for shit they could do in a few months if they just, you know, played it a little bit.

nobody wants to play the game they play. this is how gaming works

**Gadritan** · 2022-01-23 15:56

But like, a 20 year old game that’s been dumbed down to some of the easiest shit ever. You can make a few million Gil a week just by logging in. Literally.

My favorite part of rereading this thread today was seeing me in February 2020 talking about buying a Nintendo Switch, little did I know the pandemic about to start the next month lol that was fortuitous timing on my part

what are you talking about, in feb 2020 we had the vaccine. we knew this novel agent was coming and perhaps subconsciously, that's how you knew it was Switch time

ngl I bought 2x switch lite so my wife and I could play animal crossing during pandemic. Haven’t touched those things since august 2020

it was an archi joke honestly. about how we had the vaccine then and could've stabbed more people faster

but yeh perhaps i could play devils advocate: we knew (could have known) some of what was coming by then, at least enough to see how picking up some new vidya might be a good idea

You could probably still flip those for a nice pay day, even now.

Switch lights aren't too hard to find. See them going for 140-180 on r/gamesale

The salvage bans proved people didn't just want a fair shot at gear (#1 excuse for why gimps didn't do kings), they just wanted gear anyway they could get it

Or that people didnt like a 1% drop rate on gear from an event that can only be done once per day from an event that has four different zones and not every NM can be targeted every run.

**Xno Kappa** · 2022-01-24 20:40

Salvage really was fucking stupid.

**NynJa** · 2022-01-24 20:52

It was absolutely terrible at first. MNK or bust due to the lack of weapon cells and no other job having respectable h2h skill / martial arts traits. And then needing to carry a shitton of potions because no one could heal. It was a bit better when they added the starting chest, but the drop rate was still atrocious and a killer.

**Mertron** · 2022-01-24 21:26

chasing the chariot around that did homing missle and cannonballing it from behind was hilarious tho

**Mertron** · 2022-01-24 21:27

it’s really weird that i was a career drk, had ebody and ridill and most other top tier gear, and once i learned cannonball i just didn’t care anymore

cannonballlllllllllllllll
