yojimbo trial should have an entry fee. how much you pay determines the difficulty and what rewards you get

I don't think tanks asking you not to pull for them are primadonnas? That poo poo would get on my nerves too.

If your reaction to a tank saying "Protect?" at the beginning of a dungeon is "I can't wait to gently caress this dude over in a few minutes and cause a wipe" then I think group content might not be for you

People want YojimboEX because they don't like his existing fight. They don't want it to just get moved into its own trial with no difference.

~~**I'm Italian!**~~
So, once Balmung got closed off and it was free to transfer off Balmung to any 'fresh' servers, Mateus was the designated arrival spot for many roleplayers and people generally fed up from Balmung queues and all.
Because Mateus had been sparsely populated for a long time, two people were able to buy an entire housing ward for themselves before the arrival of all the people emigrating from Balmung and people were of course salty about this as it severely limited the availability of houses in the game.
So what does one then do? https://seraphaltima.tumblr.com/post/162409157558/an-open-letter-from-mateus-goblet-ward-12

I think the sentiment is that people like the aeon in FFX, but feel like his fight in Kugane Castle is underwhelming. So they want a trial so that Square has a second chance to get it right. I don't think it'll happen because I don't think anything like that has happened before, but I don't blame people for wanting it. I dunno, maybe he could be like Odin and also be a FATE.

So what you're saying is that Super Yojimbo is going to be the end boss of the 5.0 24 man raid series.

Probably not.

But there's an unspoken hint we haven't seen the last of him in the mechanics. At no point in time is the dude in that dungeon capable of paying him enough to kill the party outright. At 100% on the meter his attack STILL doesn't change over to his signature autokill attack.

Someone with more money is going to have to hire him.

Yeah, they go through lengths to show that he isn't remotely fighting at full strength. Not only does he survive when we beat him, we don't even really actually BEAT him. The merchant runs out of money and Yojimbo just leaves, not looking much worse for the wear.


Personally I want a Yojimbo fight that works like a tug-of-war against another opponent, with both sides working to outbid the other. Maybe the players get one of those wealthy lalafels on their side?

I wonder if someone had this thought and was shot down or if nobody even thought of it. Because clearly this would've made the most sense even if it would've pissed off a lot of people.

"Go on until you're stopped."
I think we have to consider the possibility that Yojimbo is just not actually very good at his job, given his habit of cleaning his clients completely dry of money and providing no useful services at all.

Dramatic maybe, but entitled? They bought out a ward when no one played on the server then everyone later gave them poo poo when it became a hot property. Maybe I'm crazy, but they seem in the right here. Hell, I could buy most of a ward at the prices they posted in a screenshot in 2016.
