I'm going to take a guess and say I'll only need 1 post for this version update, too late to make a backup but I don't think there will be a whole lot for dat mining.

...but they said there would be diamonds in the rough. Sounds like a job for mining to me.

I'm looking forward to some new expeditions. Although it's going to be very frustrating if I have to spend a mil just to see the final boss more than once a month.

Unless they add something more, we already saw some of the new items from the previous mining.

I haven't even started meebles yet <.<

I really like meebles but none really do it on my server. Get a random shout here and there but hard to find a static as most do not find value in current equip. Why does everything have to be about "what am I getting out of it?" can we not just enjoy the content; and invite me to meebles when you do? (*^.^*)

I went on a few Meebles runs and had an absolute blast. I didn't get anything good but it was fun, and that's all I care about nowadays.

really hoping they toss the Bhaflau v1 armor drop fix in this update.
9 runs since a rampart popped a NM for my static, capping out on v1 pieces for everyone and this zone is holding out on us... /wrists.

I enjoy meebles cause I do it with friends, but the loot we want is never dropping.
Dunno how long people will want to keep doing it for points (for gear you can sell).

Meeble has some really nice rewards, so I am a fan of it. I like the skill and party based objectives.

...and it's fast. Very nice spin on FFXI.

There are a handful of really good items you can get from the current Meebles. The next may have more, especially if it's to be more challenging. I enjoy the expeditions too. Especially the ones where it's more than just "go in and kill everything."

It's also a great place for returning players. Lately I've seen a lot of "Hey I'm back from a 3-year break" people out there. Meebles is perfect for them while they are waiting on Traverser Stones and Voidstones to stockpile.

It's like 5-10 minutes per expedition dude, lol. Well, 15 max I guess, but even a 3-man group doesn't need 15 minutes for most of them.

And the rest takes 2+ hours and my night playtime is limited. If I say I don't have time, I mean it.

Considering meebles would be just for the sake of it, yeah, would rather just leave it for when we have less to do.
