an idea for SE, to radically change Raise system.

[Krandor]

I had the most Fun times in this game during the MPK days for me tbh.

Yeah, MPK'ing was really fun actually lol. It felt like somewhat of demented PvP system.

The day before the MPK patch was added, we had this fucktard KS Vrtra from my LS @1%(anyone on asura can remember this). And then the very next day we were forever cursed to be unable to MPK him.

I'm still pissed about the patch for this reason even to this day, and that was a good 10 months ago I think.

At least Dblock is still a total pariah.

Although it is a pretty stupid idea, the only upside to having a longer weakness duration for lower level raises is to motivate people to hand out R2/3s rather than just giving everyone R1 to save time (since it would then no longer save you any time, and would actually waste it versus waiting for R3s).

In all honesty I'd guess the op was probably a bst... or possibly a smn... or maybe brd... someone that can work through weakness easily. It would be beneficial in those cases.

Ok not what you were looking for but we kinda need it.

If you die you should have to start over at lvl 1 lawlz

I wonder how many people would play if dying = lose everything. Kinda like hardcore mode of Diablo II. Start up a new server for hardcore mode! Of course... Endgame would kinda be impossible, unless they remove the cap on HP merits... but it'd be a fun exp race to 75. Ladder rankings / prize to first lvl 75 for each job!

[Minions]

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?

Everyone raise 1 in dynamis! /enddynamisrun

[Veneficus]

It was just a crazy Idea i thought of. but now i guess its a bad idea lol i just want to see what you guys thought about it, and the response to it.

but who cares about it now, derail this thread all you want now


btw for those curious:

Im WHM 75, BLM 73, SMN 62, THF 37, NIN 37

Ryko's first post wins.

As an aside, 15 min weakness would be so much worse than losing 1.2k exp. Hello making things take longer when you die, isn't that what everyone wants!?

[FFXIFlux]

I want to be able to assign a % of XP to go to normal XP and the rest to merit, like 10% XP to normal and 90% to merit.

While they're at that, they can make it so you don't lose XP when you hit cap, so if you're at 43999 - 50 XP and you finish an ENM for 3000 XP you don't lose 2950 XP.

And make dynamis (and all mobs) worth XP. I want to see chain 5000 in dynamis.

Diablo II hardcore was exactly what I had in mind XD

That was awesome when you'd go to fight Duriel, get unlucky with his starting location being at the entrance and you'd be dead before you finished zoneing in.

I played hardcore for a while, but gave up when a 1 second lag spike put an end to a 40+ hour character.

That would be freaking awesome.

Build a better character. I had maybe 20 characters hell-act5 and never got put under by Duriel.

EQoA (PS2 version of EQ) had that assigning a % to goto exp and % to goto upgrades (basically merits, but actually more effective than ffxi's version)

Make two member groups, one that can make new topics, and one that cannot.

Then:

Auto Group
This hack allows you to make it so that a user can be added to a group based upon their post count.

If you can't set a group to be able to make topics or not then... I give up. lol

However, this one looks useful, regardless:

PostCap
This hack will put a post per day limit on specific users, keeping them from filling your forums with useless junk all day. It will, hopefully, make them think before they click the button to post.

Anyone suggesting a "diablo-hardcore" mode for FFXI, like retarded ol' max said once, well there is a difference between the games. All there is to do in Diablo II is grind exp. While some people only grind exp and equipment in FFXI, there is more to do.
