Epic Augments are Epic

Re: Epic Augments are Epic

Try a 10m item >.> Fuck that. SE thinks players have all this gil lying around to burn. VERY FEW DO. Why do they think the RMT keep coming back? It's because there's a demand for gil which people DON'T HAVE.

I think it's stupid to try to augment something like Dusk Gloves +1, but I think it's even stupider that you can possibly lose such an item because SE made negatives possible as an augment.

Augment Definition | Definition of Augment at Dictionary.com

Means increase, not modify. So fuck SE on this one, they fail.

even if the item is given negative stats, it is still an augment, because the stats negative or positive are ADDED TO the item.

and yes loosing an expensive item does suck, but that's the options to weight to yourself, when deciding to do something like that. If you feel te risk is not worth it, then DONT DO IT.

It's still stupid. I stand by that statement and I'm not going to change my mind.

because you only see the negative, as in many other things SE has added as of late.

guess you could say "Negative nancy" ;p

Or I could just see that it's like a kick in the balls. "Here players, we're gonna give you a chance to make your items better!"

Players open up the box and see negative shit on their item, "What the fuck? You said better!"

SE: "Haha, keep paying us."

Players. /fume

They said in their cute little update note that they were going to give us the chance to make items better. The teaser images didn't have any negative stats on them. That would have been bad, because then we would have known the truth. They made us all believe that shit was going to be great. I don't expect perfect augments on everything but it would be nice if they didn't subtract from the items. You can't sit here and tell me that they didn't make it sound like it was going to be super-awesome amazing and then it fell so very far from that. Even give an item lolVIT and it's still better than getting some negative shit. That's not fun, it just pisses me off.

Freaking Sky doll popped with 100% Ensilence on his melee hits, caught me off guard and killed me...luckily I had RR up and recovered, of course the augment was totally worth it:

hell yeah

they said "chance " key word here, this is not WoW, nothing is given to the player.

And I don't think it should be. But I don't think they should TAKE AWAY, either, which is what -STR is doing, it's taking away.

well you can't have a "pize" without a "risk" thats just boring


edit: heh... changed can to cant -.-

Re: Epic Augments are Epic

The risk, IMO, is that you might get something that's not really useful. Like Resist Stun +1 or something. It's still crappy enough without taking anything away from the stats of the item.

I completly agree with what you are saying. If you want an agument, it should be all positive
(Except a "-" stat to balance it). No negitive being added. That really sucks.

I can understand something like this:

Str+ 5
Dex-3

or...

Mnd+5
Int-3

But not something like this...

Acc- 3
Wind+10

or...

Str-10
Mnd+8

Thats not really an aguments. Atleast give us something we can use with ou jobs. Depending on the job that you use when you aguments your item should depend on the aguments you can get. Like Sam will give STP, Blm; Int, Whm; Mnd, and Cure +10%. And so on like that.

No. We don't want something for nothing. We want something that can be used with out hard earned tabs and money spent trying to get the gear that has a chance be the crappiest item ever in the game!

again, you cant get something good, without the risk of failure.

Re: Epic Augments are Epic

It takes a while to get the needed tabs to try for an agumenes.then you have to farm for about 3-4 hours to get the gil to get the item, then you try. You kill the mosnters you open thebox other horrible item. and repeat again, get ANOTHER horrible item. Where the hell is the fun in that?
