Change Domain Invasion Into Weekly HELP!

This batch is champion.

But about the last meme, no reason to call trust. Just put flag up for more points.

Grouping up doesn't get you any extra points, and calling trusts can give you a higher chance at killshot for double points.

Until lilisette gets the kill, seen it.

Starting to get 200 Beads per kill so now instead of 165 days of playing before I see an Aeonic (when I was getting 100/kill), it'll be 83 days. Basically an Aeonic every 3 months of playing this game every day and getting points. It could go up from 200 as well. Other servers are probably seeing higher point totals than 200 / kill as well. Thoughts from less-populated servers on what bead results you're getting now?

On Odin I'm getting 400~500 a kill, but I don't go right as JST midnight, I go when there are less people. Critical build and I can get 500-600.

(edit: When I go at JST midnight I get 222...)

Been getting capped but been playing very late when no ones on(1103)

What even is the cap on beads?

1011 with the right vorseals iirc.

Don't worry, guys. We have Fortitude blessing now. All is fine.

They can just let total points for the day add up...like if I've missed the past four days, cap for today is 400 points. That wouldn't harm anyone.

They want you to be logging in every day - it'll be one of their core success metrics as a business unit. There's a dollar sign behind every game design decision.

Kinda like canteens work, i like it.

Pre-update... I hate to say this, but I would kill maybe 1 Quetzalcoatl an hour for 1011 beads. Now I'm getting 400+ every 12 minutes. Please keep this the way it is?

edit: And also getting kills on dragons I didn't mess with because they flew. Except during events every couple of months. But now they just don't fly!

edit2: I'm not the most geared or experienced, but I do get a LOT of beads. Pull out Lilisette and go /BLM!

There's another bonus, lazy people like me get to upgrade vorseals (regen/refresh/acc).

Don't pull numbers out of your butt!

But no, really, I have 2 of all these vorseals before this, already up to 4 (I'm a returning player who made a new account)

Which server are you on Unzero?
I get 111 or 211 beads at best.
I normally don't even engage lol

Odin

I got over 600 beads each on 4/4 consecutive dragons over the course of an hour the other day on Phoenix (all in the 600s, didn't hit 700 on any of them). I was SAM, just spamming Fudo with Masamune and using all healer/support trusts, and no Lili (no crit rate buffs), so I wasn't even optimizing by getting many crits, nuke points, etc. (I wasn't busting my *** for beads; in no particular rush since currently have like 43k beads right now that will surely cap by the time I need to use them).

There was somewhat of a lull in activity at that particular time (I think it was PST evening), but still enough people that dragons all died in well under a minute. When I went yesterday there was more traffic and I averaged more like 300/kill using the same approach. Still, my 600+ per run day was only day 4 or 5 of the new DI system, so probably fair to assume some significant drop in activity (on every server, even Asura) once the newness of the DI changes wear off.

Totally agreed with Unzero too, that this makes Azi Dahaka and Naja Raga much more viable targets than before, when it was Quetz or bust outside of the DI campaign events.

But after going to sleep, waking up and thinking about it, I do feel like I kinda came into this thread with a bit of naysaying...I kind of get why people are upset about not being able to keep up with point totals.

So, I just did my 4 daily DIs on NIN... Wasn't really paying attention to my points on the first kill, but the final 3 I got:

1006 beads on Azi Dahaka (Kannagi, spammed Hi)
608 beads on Naja Raga (Kannagi, spammed Hi)
1006 beads on Quetzalcoatl (Tauret, spammed Evisceration)

Dragons lived about 1min each.

I dare y'all to make trusts visible from everyone when farming Doamin Invasion.

only adds 10~20 npcs on screen.
Not surprising since there were usually a couple 6 box players, and 2~4 single box players.

I keep getting 0 beads. stupid malformed + cap beads. I should find something to upgrade and skip the wait. Maybe rdm feet... or not.

I don't even participate when it's Quetz now. Might as well do something that takes 25 minutes, then come back for kills towards some vorseals.

On Odin, it causes me to lag so much that I cannot even take out my weapons in time to fight the dragon before death.

Today's update, 3 for 3 with 1006 beads. Got a killshot on one, so didn't need 4 dragons today. That makes 5 of my last 6 dragon fights with 1006 beads, which seems like it must have been capped.

A useful tip: Tauret rocks for getting crits (and can be used by 9 jobs), I just use that and spam evisceration. If you have NIN (for Innin), Rogue's Roll, etc... even better.

On odin like Senaki stated, most times the dragons are dead before it even loads on my screen. The lag is beyond horrible.

Thats the result of a rushed change. Next month is “improvements”.

The only winner should be the guy who sold wyrm ash asap.

Wow its snowing outside. So many snowflakes.

I think it's probably too early for them to be backtracking any of the new system mechanics, so I bet they're doing something for beads. Maybe we'll auto-cap beads to 1000+ regardless of participation like with the DI points.

The clear solution is to make it a force pop like all HNM's!
