The Wings of the Goddess missions have finally begun in earnest. Read on to discover how the story was set in motion...
Ominous statues known as "cavernous maws" have suddenly appeared all across Vana'diel.
After passing through these mysterious portals, adventurers meet with the talkative catlike being known as Cait Sith. After accepting her request to help lessen the "tidal wave of tragedy" bearing down on Vana'diel, Altana's champions are sent directly into the chaos of the Crystal War.

(05/09/2008) I do kinda wonder why they even bother teasing the storylines to missions, particularly knowing most people won't touch them until some endgame zone or content is tied to its progression. Even knowing this is the case, people will still wait to forever and a day to get around to it.
Won't be happening with me this time around, both characters will be caught up as of doing my second round of ToAs, muahahahahahah.
Still I should probably pick up on some of the WotG quests and get those done just in case they're tied to moving this storyline forward. They had proven to be tie-ins when it initially started, anyway.
I just hope these missions are more along the lines of CoPs and not so lolToA. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-09-2008, 06:59 AM | #12 (permalink) | | Senior Veteran Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 4,220 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 87 Thanked 1,111x in 691 Posts Gil: 3,223 Bank: 41,685 Total Gil: 44,908 Donate | Re: Wings of the Goddess Missions! (05/09/2008) Now, it always seemed to me that 'everyone' did the missions as they were released and if you didn't and tried later you were mostly SOL. | Quote: | | I just hope these missions are more along the lines of CoPs and not so lolToA. | That would be nice, but really, I doubt it. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-09-2008, 07:19 AM | #13 (permalink) | | ~ Mama Gamer ~ Keeper of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Location: Pennsylvania Posts: 2,042 Style: Light - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 387 Thanked 324x in 219 Posts Gil: 5,185 Bank: 36,094 Total Gil: 41,280 Donate | Re: Wings of the Goddess Missions!

(05/09/2008) The missions won't be on the level of CoP because of the sheer amount of bitching from people that it were "too hard", so yeah, the days of CoP level missions are over, maybe it will come back when people stop bitching..but that won't be happening lol.
If players don't touch missions till they see what end-game/reward or whatever..that's their fault..not everyone is like that, but because of the people that are like that newer missions/content is "lacking", because instead of just being grateful and enjoying things in strides..SE is obviously delaying the stories in chunks due to that mentality.
Which is why Zilart and CoP missions came half and half, because people weren't always like that. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-09-2008, 07:26 AM | #15 (permalink) | | ~~Kupo!~~ Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Nov 2005 Posts: 3,006 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 8 Thanked 68x in 56 Posts Gil: 7,659 Bank: 12,537 Total Gil: 20,196 Donate | Re: Wings of the Goddess Missions!
