    Default Loot

    One of the things I love on XII is the loot system. I just love knowing it is better to pwn a skeleton than a hyena. Treasure chests are dumb luck, but loot takes knowledge.

    I also love "mixing" Demon Eyes, Charge Gizzards and Wind stones to get a brand new item on the Bazaar. I feel like a witch (a beatiful witch ) mixing eyes of newt in her cauldron.

    What do you guys think ?

    Yeah, loot is much better than treasure chests. For the most part, treasure chests have really crappy items that hardly sell for anything. I probably should start using a Diamond Armlet but I don't really care enough to.

    Loot by far.

    All too often have I hopefully opened a chest to find a potion. oooooohh, so exciting.

    The would be one of my few complaints about this game. Things to be found in chests. I would personally like to see chests yield something more worthwhile.

    I like the loot but you dont really get much money for them and I would prefer the monsters to just give you money. But receiving loot is more realistic.

    :cool:
    Going inside out from left to right it is otol.

    Which is close to O'Toole.

    Which is the last name of Irish actor Peter O'Toole

    Who is an amazing actor.

    Therefore, the loot system is amazing.

    Loots not exactly new to FFXII, all FFs have had monsters dropping items... Just now, we can choose to pick up the pixelated loot icon or not!

    And loot has become the almost sole source of income. That's kinda new.

    And the Bazaar "recipes" are new too, right ? I just love combining eyes of newt demon eyes, Snake skin, rainbow eggs and stuff to make new items

    Yeah bazaar is new, but loot is one of the major money making things of FFXI too...

    FFXI is online, this isnt

    I personally think they should have just called it Final Fantasy Online or something, rather than 11...It's not the same as the single player console series, although FFXII has heavy influences from it. When playing FFXII I feel like I'm playing Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic :P

    I think Loot is a great addition. It's much better than having enemies drop Gil. I don't really care about mixing Loot, I just sell it whenever I get a bunch.

    Same here, if it happens to make something cool in the Bazaar so be it. Currently got 700,000 gil

    If I kill a certain mark (SPOILER) (Behemoth King) thats another (SPOILER)500,000 gil for the reward

    Hurray. Defeated that mark. I have a cool 1.2 million gil now =]
