Hi,

After the 2021 pity system for Odore and Ornett Spirit Essence was added to the game, it is not anymore possible to create an Ancient-like pot with 3 ancient items in order to get the related titles. It's kinda frustrating for people having spent more time than necessary in order to create this ancient pots, and it implies that two more titles are, again, no more available for people who are starting to create these pots.

Surely it's not that important, but it's still very frustrating to see content not being doable anymore, even with the same time investment that was previously required.

Unfair? Of course, but who cares, because definitely not PA, they didn't fix the main quest titles in two years (after changes).

Also titles for main quest bosses not working.

And even if they ever fix it, it's too late because it requires 3 new characters to complete 3 main paths (and then both mediah) to get these titles.

The Ancient tag is there for the people who put the time in PRIOR to the pity system, less people were motivated to grind out the potion when you could only get a direct drop.

Where do you see the difference between: I drop 3 parts in 2020 and I drop 3 parts in 2022?

When they add titles for infinite pots I already had 2 of the 3 parts. Even if I now drop 3 (from drop, not from 100 mini parts), I will not get title. Why? My time commitment doesn't count?

Ancient is for the people who completed the quest before it was changed.  Not like anyone can see your infinite pot unless you link it.

What is the difference between the Ancient and non ancient versions in terms of functionality?

There is no functional difference between these two pots versions.

But I still don't understand where is the logic to reserve Ancient pots for people who have completed the quest before it was changed in the exactly same way than someone can complete the quest today. The probability to get an ancient piece is the same, the way you solve the quest is also the same.

So, the question should be asked differently: why did they have implemented this Ancient version? To congratulates people who had a better RNG than others who have spent more than 100 hours on one (or more) spots? It doesn't seem right to me, and non-event-based titles should not be limited in the time.

the 1st one knew that he could grind for 10 years without ever having it and despite everything he grinded until the loot

the second one does not care at all, he has a pity, he will have it in less than one mounth, he has nothing to lose

I think it's nice to have special titles no longer accessible right now.

The people who got the pot before the pity pieces worked hard getting them, always in fear of having terrible RNG and never finding the potion parts.

Because there are pity pieces right now, that fear is completely nullified. You just casually grind your pity pieces together and know you are getting closer to your goal each grind. It's not the same as how it was.

Titles are a good way to display prestige without giving any unfair advantage over other players in the game, so I'm completely happy and content with the fact that some titles are time limited.

This is a non-sense as the three parts were looted in the same way, on the sames area, with the same RNG. What about people who had their 3 pieces in less than one month before the pity system? And what about people who are determianted to continue to farm their last Ancient piece, despite the fact they can actually craft a non-ancient piece?

People seem attached to their privilege of having Ancient pots, and refuse to understand that crafting an Ancient pot with three ancient pieces one year ago or one month ago has exactly the same gratification. I spent approximatively one year to get 2/3 pieces as a casual gamer why moderate RNG luck who can't spend 4 hours/day playing games, and I still don't understand the point of not being able to create an Ancient pot, all of this because I took 6 months to get the last Ancient piece after the pity system was added to the game.

Do you understand that you can still get these major parts and make treasure with them?
My friend recently got 98 mini parts and then dropped the main one. 30 minutes later, at other zone, having 0 mini parts, another main part dropped to her. Why doesn't she deserve the title when she craft infinity potin not from the mini parts but from the main parts. But yesterday, not six months ago.
