Next update...

[JoOeetheplatypuS]

IMO we need more end-game places to meripo, more HNMs that are more easily accesable to EVERYONE, not just assfags with bots. And candy.

We here at Square Enix believe in listening to our playerbase.

We have added many more places to merit in the last expantion, This has also inexplicably left many older areas completely vacant, You can exp there!

We have made more HNMs that are accessable. By intensionally making Hydra and Cerberus drops sub-par our goal is that Everybody will have a chance to fight these monsters. Linkshells looking to gear their players properly will leave these to the many linkshells we're certain exist that just want to fight it for fun.

And we gave you Astral Candy. What more do you want?

@ your sig... is that world of ruin or world of balance?

It's WOR.

i just started playing FF3 again and its so much <3

wanna find those dino's!!!! i hurd they gots good gearz

Theres a forest shaped like an upside down dino that's on the continent of narshe IIRC. Thats where they are.

World of Ruin

Dino forest is on that big island at the very north east, near the "Crazy Old Man's House," East of Narshe. I guess it kinda' looks like an upside-down Brontosaurus... sorta'?

Looks more like a rubber ducky rotated 90 degrees clockwise.

Not sure it really looks much like a brontosaur at all, or was intented to, either.

Definitely a rubber duck.

[Stellar]

Alot of players, including myself, prefer the CoP content to what i've seen so far of TOAU. I hate besieged, assault is utterly boring, cerberus is ok, hydra sucks. Being forced to HP in whitegate sucks. The main thing I am hoping to see in a new expansion is the TOAU sky/sea equivilant.

See ya in aery tonight

I guess I'm not one of those "Alot of players."


1]Besieged is free exp/IS. Dying without exp loss is fun. The reward for it is also the exp bonus we all get from sanction that everyone takes for granted and counts it as what kind of exp/hr a "good" party should be getting, when it's simply a bonus for winning Besieged.

2]Assault is fun, and the rewards are actually decent. If it's "utterly boring," I'll go ahead and assume you're only a WHM or something.

3]Cerberus was a fun fight and Algol is still a good weapon.

4]Hydra was a good 'idea' for a mob, it's an interesting fight. It just still needs to drop something that people actually want.

5]Last I checked, you're not forced to put your homepoint anywhere. I don't understand this comment at all, lol. Yeah, I hate to have my homepoint within 20 feet of every amenity I could possibly need. Auction House, Sanction, Warp to Jeuno, Warp to home nation, Runic Portals, Assaults, Mission NPCs, Mog House, Mog Locker, every Guild. So... wtf?

6]Sky/sea equivelent for ToAU is the last thing I want. I spend enough time as it is, competing with CGF for NMs in sky, and enough time popping Jailer of Hope only to get everyone in the LS a really awesome staff. I'd rather have some kind of new bum-rush fights like Limbus, where it only takes an hour and stuff that people want actually drops.

[Bagel]

Dinosaur forest is totally the best meripo zone in FFVI. Pots in the magic tower for learning all your spells though.

[Khamsin]

ToAU has introduced a lot of good, new content and novel concepts into the game. It gave us good merit camps with fast spawning mobs in a location that doesn't take 30 min to get to. It added a rewards system that isn't based on blind luck where if you put in the effort, you are guaranteed to get what you want in time. It introduced HNMs that have unique and interesting behaviors and weaknesses, and require more thought and a more balanced setup than bringing a ton of BLM to manaburn it down. And travel was made easy, you can HP in Whitegate and get anywhere within minutes. It is no longer a huge timesink to travel to the same places you've been a million times before.

All in all, I like it so far.

[Gulkeeva]

someone mentioned players going to psu. the japanese people in my shell said that psu was a joke, that its incredibly aweful.

Some JP I heard talking about it said it was fun for a bit... but it already had mass dupe hack problem and was getting outa control or will be soon... or so they say.

wanna find those dino's!!!! i hurd they gots good gearz

tyranosaurous forest, above the vedlt in the WOR, upper right section of the map, be warned, the t-rexes there are hard, usually need to be mid50s or higher to survive.
that mob is the brontosaur, its much harder, can do a sneeze move, however they drop a ton of exp and economizers (all spells take 1 MP)
You can beat them with the vanish/doom trick, however doing those tactics (vanish/doom/xzone) reduces your chance for a drop
if you vanish/xzone to kill doom gaze (fly around in airship in WoR) he wont drop the bahamut esper

edit: beaten... by several people
looks like some ff6 nerds in here, wooo

My party had a point system. Our fucking nin Shadow got an economizer.

Yeah, It's just north of the Veldt, drops Economizers, makes all spells cost 1MP. When the first one dropped, it went to Celes because she had more points.

First time I played through I never even knew Vanish+Doom existed, God that makes the game Easy-mode.

EDIT: F*CK YOU MAX, I was typing this and mentioned that joke on AIM. GG on stealing it.

A)Hai2u assault
B)You need a timer for those things or people will max out in a month and go back to sea/sky.

[A] Perhaps Assault on a larger scale, that would be muchos fun. 64-man Assault? mmmm

[B] Yeah, I meant to mention the timer. 1hr run every 3 days for loot is funner than 6hr run every other day for loot. It's refreshing to have the occasional fight that isn't heavily determined by strategy/party-setup, and is just fast and fun.

[ircgeek]

BTW, maybe it's just me worrying a bit, but did anyone else notice they didn't specifically mention chocobo racing coming in October... Could be nothing, but would I be surprised if it was delayed? Not particularly.

Unfortunately people want to get out of aery sky and sea and though your idea would be great in my opinion, the hyperfocused BG community wouldn't care about it.
