Dammit, you should know where I'm coming from. I mean what the hell are they trying to do with it now?

I only accept spirit questions. Asking if they'll do something about zeta being "difficult" just makes me roll my eyes when they could have asked why spirits haven't gotten new spells since 75 or why they still have the bug from 2003 which resets their timer as soon as you assault.

I'd kind of smile if someone wasted a question about when the new avatars with less perpetuation will come, since it was promised 2006.

That answer regarding Pet Food Eta ingredients is not adequate enough for my satisfaction. I'd like to see the following to get their acquisition to a more tolerable level:

*Cut Ruszors' HP by 25~50%. 7,000+ HP on a regular monster that's supposedly EP at level 90 doesn't make much sense. Fights should last so long that I am using Despoil every fight,

*Bring their Attack down to regular monster-type proportions. EP- monsters should NOT be able to hit any level 90 job for upwards of 250 HP per regular attack and 400+ on criticals. That's HNM power, not that of farming quarry.

*Remove the Terror/Gravity/Equiment Removal features of Ruszor TP moves. These alone are the main reason Ruszor Meat has rarely gone up for sale. As a THF, I barely survive these TP moves even with Curing Waltz III on /DNC and can only thank Evasion Bonuses for my not being killed

*Remove the Communal Hate system given to Apkallu or give egg farmers more leeway so we're not suddenly fighting damn-near invincible birds for one egg because someone was struggling to farm earlier.

These should allow people to farm Ruszor Meat and Apkallu Eggs with far less trouble and, in turn, be able to post a larger supply of Eta bicuits on the AH

Apkallu in Abyssea don't have communal hate.


Ruszor meat doesn't go up much because BSTs and RNGs aren't willing to pay more than 1000 gil for it. Pay what it is worth and people will farm it.

Most companies would have already dropped support for a machine where half the people using it can't implement a fix because their machine is broken (i.e. non working DVD drive)

I can't see why BSTs would even wanted Charmed mobs in Abyssea between how good new jugs are, restore chests for routine Familiar use, and Atmas carrying over to pets. If your objective is the whole quickly disposable pet pools for trying to solo NMs schtick of old, I'd almost say to just be a SMN instead. And I guess I don't miss the, "You stole my NM!" gripes when the claim system's brought up, too.
