Like the Union events that we have right now, you mean? Like this:
Exceed weapons for all elements. How are new players gonna get Exceeds now? I thing they're giving them from the Olympia raids, but have fun farming that shit as a new player.
Water gets a straight up fucking amazing Glaive Grid.
Thunder gets a Gun Grid, which isn't ideal, but it's... okay? At least as long as you fight Water/Phantom, due to the Guns having shitty Crit on them.
Wind gets a passive PF Grid. It might not be a Phantom Grid, but it's still a passive 240% Burst damage Grid. On an element that's stupid fast to begin with.
Veterans get a Light healing Grid, just like that. How are newer players gonna tackle this DoT spam shit?
Dark gets an Axe Grid, which by itself isn't really anything to write home about, but dem 15% Assault + Pride bonus + 18% HP Axes are no fucking joke. I'll take that shit over 30% Assault ANY day. Also, nearly a complete Hammer Grid just from events, with all the Exceed you'll ever need.

Only Fire gets fucked over by Demons, whileas with Angels, you have... you have... okay fine, I'll look it up. Fire gets Glaive, Dark gets Lance, Thunder gets Axes, Water gets Staves... Light and Wind aren't out yet. So yeah, Thunder and Water are thoroughly shafted, Fire and Dark are fine-ish once you get a bundle of them... which uh... apparently isn't very fast since there's been four Union events over the course of eight months. So they happen every TWO months now, and you only get 250 Holy Soul Points? Holy shit, that means that it'll take new players TEN MONTHS to reach Shingen. Wow. Just... wow.
One.
FUCKING.
JOB.
DMM.

Jesus fucking christ the whole fucking Angel thing pisses me off so badly. How can they fuck this up so much?
