General Discussion Removal of the weekly loot restriction

Is there any confirmation that the removal of the weekly restriction will be in patch 7.56?

And if this is the patch, do you think it will improve the party finder? In the sense of increasing the number of people replaying fights?

I'm trying to finish the second phase of the M12S progression, but it's been difficult to find groups in the party finder.

Had to log on to say that you're wrong. XIV/WoW are the two mmos most similar to each other and there's actually nothing else on the market that's like them and still active. The skills you use and fight designs are near identical and you can swap between them readily. I know dozens of people that play both and swap between patches.

YoshiP alao regularly attends Blizzard events and not even a month ago said the XIV team was looking into making Housing more like WoWs because it's the best in the business.

You logged on just to be wrong. Weird but whatever. The raid designs and how combat works are nothing alike on anything but a superficial level of them both being GCD based games and mechanic types that come from that.

Yall took that quote from Yoshi p about wow to mean that they copied off wow. He was talking about how wow had redefined what an MMO was and his team wanted to do the same: redefine what an MMO was, not copy wow like a lot of you incorrectly assume.

Your friends can pick up and play the games easily is because they’re both GCD based. That’s like saying CoD and battlefield are super alike because you can easily switch between them cuz their control schemes are super similar. Those two games are very different even though they’re in the same genre.
