Escha - Zi'Tah

I do not understand what this means.

Corsair
-New Job Ability (Crooked Card - Increase Roll Area of Effect)
-Geomancer Roll (Increase Enhancing Magic Duration)
-Rune Fencer Roll (Increase Magic Evasion)
-Ninja's Roll buff

Crooked Card is useless, I don't need more than 16 yalms <.< run roll I'll probably never use, geo I suppose is ok for pre-fight.

You got the source of that Crevox?

All the people getting salty over non subbers posting their 2 cents you all sound like pepe "NORMIES GET OUT 11 IS OURS NORMIES GET OUT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

I know people have been hoping for new Dynamis zones (or hard versions since adding the Arch bosses but with iLevel gear even those can be soloed by most jobs)

But with them officially saying they WILL NOT be opening blocked off areas (Kahzam ah area,the caves to nowhere in Kon & Battlia downs and so on) and also not going to bother with opening other zones that are always talked about but never mentioned (far east, far south, far north, and the areas only open in Shadowregin & Abyssea) And what do we get? another Abyssea like zone only no time restrictions, a black & white TV remake of a zone we already have :| sorry but unless the final ending for this is on par with CoP it seems to not be worth it, shaping up to be Abyssea if it was an expansion rather than add-ons.

And some still play non subbed in private servers and those who manage them want to look if there might be any updates worth adding since there's a few that have 99 cap & seekers content. (No I don't play on PS but i'd like to.)

Some also roleplay and like to tune in to updates and commentary to see if they can update their character's story or not.

They just want this classic MMO to end so they can shift it all aside for the mobile game.

And what help Draylo? sure I'm grateful for it (though this was waaaaay back with when drg was my main hell the first AF I iLeveled was the pants plus bettering drk too was helpful.), till this stupid drama with Thornyy & his bots and not being welcome for any new gear because I didn't have the "right jobs" leveled (cause I have no interest in bard, cor and lacked the 119 relics needed like the Ghorn, & pink harp cause I don't care for those jobs) and then...hmm when you removed me off your friendlist and blocked me? in game yeah. (this was long before your ban and return then server change mind you)

Why even waste your breath getting angry over people who have a different opinion then yours? No ones stopping you from still enjoying the game and its content. But some are a little annoyed with this whole "rose colored glasses" thing and acting as if this game is still as great as it was in like...idk 2006~2009? meh...if you like this game fine, go get what you can out of it but don't force people to still have to play because "OMG BEST GAME EVAR" And the people wishing death on you are idiots and you should report them, people who wish death on anyone are not good people or people you should not even waste time listening to, its just a game for crying out loud.

When u don't have the job they have space for then they have no room for you. Are they suppose to make one of their elite dds go play bard to make space for you?

As to Escha just being an Abyssea/Delve hybrid,

"please look forward to it"

So you can be extra disappointed when it happens and you can brighten my day~

Btw, this threads great, so much talk about me, and I'm not even posting here... I see that my work will carry on long after I quit posting here.

Draylo, no one wishes you'd die, we'd just not be surprised if it were to happen. You're our favorite guy to watch.

Most the comments I've read were of people hoping for content like sky/sea, something with the possibility of lasting years.

But then, they saw an Abyssea rehash, which in my opinion is pretty much the worst thing they could have done. So their disappointment is understandable.

With no future, this content will not last long, mostly because people are going to just plow through it pretty much effortlessly. It already sounds hilariously casual given there is no limit to entry, you get temporary buffs like abyssea, I would fully expect powerful temp items, and you can summon trusts.

Sky/Sea is almost identical to Abyssea aside from the buffs/gimmicks. You collect pop items, pop the boss and then pop a mega boss. It's not really that different from Abyssea at all.

To add to what you have said, most sky/sea NMs have unique gimmicks/pop mechanics too.

Remove the proc system and sky/sea NMs are even more complex than Abyssea NMs.

In Abyssea, you farm pop item, go through your WS/JA/magic list and survive the "OMG WIPE" move. In sky/sea, you had to deal with physical restrictions, pop conditions and unique battle mechanics.

Sky/Sea is almost identical to Abyssea aside from the buffs/gimmicks. You collect pop items, pop the boss and then pop a mega boss. It's not really that different from Abyssea at all.

Sky was guaranteed drop, you'd do the content, again and again because no drop, but you'd do it. Abyssea, you'd be stuck on the first NM if you weren't dual/tri boxing, or had a group. Poor design in comparison as it's historically the event that forced players to play a certain way the most (the gimmicks you mention ruined most of the jobs beyond repair, whereas Sky allowed literally any job to perform properly).

I don't dislike either, but it's wrong/shallow to say that they're fundamentally identical, because they're not.

This is Valli? He's less composed than I remember. Gotten kinda weird.
