Mercenary Rank Points #2863

Closed panfunk closed 4 years ago

Checklist

Details

Completed all 5 PSC Assaults, but according to Abquhbah I only have 19-24 points. https://ffxiclopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Mercenary_Rank Completing an Assault for the first time should award 5 points. Note, I failed my first try of 'Seagull Grounded', maybe that's why I didn't get the 'first completion' credit? Or is the system not correctly implemented yet anyway, since we can't rank up as of yet?

There is no rank ups yet and only 1 tier of assaults open. Will come when more are made

What is the long term policy on implementing mercenary ranks? In era, while it was not the most efficient, you could hit max rank off of tier 1 assaults if you wanted to. If ranks are going to be gated behind assault tiers, then there is going to be a lot of wasted potential, as every 25 days that a new tier isn't out, that is a missed opportunity for players to gain an extra rank towards Perdu weapons and other items, as well as increased Sanction duration. For the sake of not heavily gating player progression, I urge this to be reconsidered.

Thanks for all your hard work. Assaults have been fun!

Can only work as fast as I can in free time. Come out as they are tested and ready is plan. 1st win does give 5 points, after that its 1.

Cant open next rank until the next assaults are even ready as the client unlocks the next set in memory and then people will be stuck in uncompleted assault missions

VirtuosusFFXI commented 4 years ago

Oh, to be clear I was not talking about adding new assault tiers, but simply the rank up quests being implemented so as to not waste the 1 point players get every Assault completion after the first. I believe once you hit 25 rank up points, you are capped out until ranking up, correct? So any excess points would be wasted.

Edit: I see, so it is a client limitation. That is rough. Thanks for the explanation and the work you've done.

Not really an issue but I'll keep.it open so people can see it's not coded

panfunk commented 4 years ago

I made the topic cuz the mercenary rank point calculation (if implemented) appears to be wrong. Or the NPC message doesn't work correctly (if implemented). Not cuz I couldn't rank up.

Is it possible to unlock the rankups and then use purple system text to let players know that an tier2+ assault is not available while trying to accept it and then block them? It will result in the lists showing each new tier of assaults, most of which won't be available to actually accept, while allowing people to rank-up.

It is not
