You make it sound like it would require a lot of dedication, so you would still need to choose priority. #cantdecideerror

They should do a weaponskill reforged. Where we can do some stupid series of quests to build a weaponskill. The tech is already kinda there with merit weaponskills where we basically pick a ws and adjust a stat modifier.

like you could be given options but you could only pick like 3-4 after a base components like:
-** choose a base attribute (str, mnd, dex, vit etc...)
- multistrike (4 - 8 hits)
- crit strike
- damage varies with TP
- deals (elemental) damage
- drains target's HP
- additional attribute
etc...the stats could be on a tier system or something~
also don't allow the custom ws to have any skillchain properties to keep it "simple".

and the quests could be like

To add STR as an additional attribute (1% modifier) get 1 Helm of Briareus. to raise it to a 100% modifier fetch a 10000.
or to add multi hit fetch 10000 ancient beast coins. or do 1000 Lv. 99 KSNM/BCNM fights
and we can have the option to respec ws components to something else within the same tier by doing a quest.

It could revitalize many different areas of the game... (just a thought i had from bed this morning)


Trials of Magian WS edition.

I'd be down.

Knowing SE, they would do that, but instead of x5, it would be x500.

Probably the most cheap announcement i ever saw since i started

Same, is there still a lockdown in Japan? To be fair I'm sure that has affected the update.

I didn't anticipate any real update besides another Ambu swap for this month, since looking at last month's comments about only delivering bare minimum. Unless they roll out last minute Odyssey plans (which they have not mentioned since then, so unlikely), this is probably just going to be an ambu/aman trove reset.

Mireu kills (not killshot lol) wouldnt be terrible, since it might actually force people to try and kill it instead of just warp out for an hour, but the damn thing seems to spawn once every 5 days.

People still warp out? On Asura it always dies now, up to 100 points per run, living the dream.

Consecutive Mireu kills has been the best thing for Domain invasion. I would do it and it would sure be a good way to piss off players who want speedy progress on stuff. Also, you wouldn't be able to buy your way to it (though you could afk your way into one), and getting 5 Mireu clears is more of a matter of chance of actually seeing it than skill in clearing the content.

Would be a sucky way to hide rewards behind, which means SE has definitely considered it. xD

I'm sure we'll get ambu at least and campaign changeout, I feel like these things are already decided for the whole year especially with the rotating gallantry rewards. But yeah not ***else. If they don't change ambu I'm ok with a points refresh and another month of this free ambu.

Probably on the lower population servers. I've talked to people who have seen it but never end up killing it because not enough show up or people give up too quickly and they decide it's not efficient use of their time. If there was a chance for something other than instant capped daily DI, I'm sure people would be more inclined to stay.

There is incentive because after you kill it increases the cap you get per DI, so now on Asura one DI run gives you 100 points total.

I think its permanent until you lose a Mireu. I was surprised myself but it must have been one of the last few big updates they had.

Odin is getting 100/kill now as well, is that the maximum we can get the cap up to?

I can't find info on that anywhere.

While that's cool, I can still see it still not being efficient for some players on some servers. Once the lower population servers start killing it regularly..

On Bahamut its 4852 dragons kill in a row atm. 100 points every DI for few weeks now I think and thats good because 2 daya ago I lost my arrow...

It is efficient for everyone, not sure how it wouldn't be. They nerfed him so he is easier to kill (I think) and it gradually increases the max DI points per day to 100 (not sure if that is what it caps at.) That means every DI you do gives 100 total points and you cap in one run without needing to get killshots or continue doing it. Not much incentive for farming beads like before but nice and quick points.

Let's say that all you're wanting to do is cap your DI. Mireu pops but nobodys killing it. Do you just move on? Do you spend however long waiting for people to help kill?

On a populated server where you know if he pops, he's going down, it's absolutely efficient.

There a few moments where just 2 or 3 players do dragons. Plus, during entire Mireu timer, not a single shout in unity chat.

So, its necessay the few people who actually notice Mireu go to town to call others otheewise there is a non-negligible chance to actually losing it. Worst case is *** warping out of Mireu and dont call anyone. With no chat, its possible to lose it (my server already lost it once).

Aside that situation, Mireu is easilt killable in any server. Its just a matter of gathering people.

I agree it's killable on any server. As Draylo stated, on Asura, it's killed every time. They have the population to make that happen. I cannot speak for any other server but my own. I have seen several times where even while people are shouting, not enough show up. I'm sure that will be less of a "thing" as time passes. Just as in history when COP wyrms went from being ignored to camped.

I used to play on Quetz, as my name says, so I do see the problem here. When a server only has 300 people online, most of which are occupied with events or afk, then motivating people to go out and kill the 'rare' dragon can certainly be troubling.

Odin has a huge JP population that have, as far as I am aware, been the ones killing the dragons for us.
