Dat Mining Results (Holy CRAP @ Relic & Mythic Augments!)

Conqueror reduces the defense penalty from berserk the same as relic boots.

I'd imagine this 2nd augment negates it completely. I am really pissed off at them for shafting us on AF3 though, was looking forward to that since they said it was coming @ vanafest...

WTF is Divine Benison? (may have spelled that wrong, my internet is retarded right now and it'll take me twenty minutes to get to page 1 again.) It's on the Yagrush. I don't remember reading about that.

And if the Mandau thing isn't a typo ... damn that's lame.

They also announced 3 addons (you got one) and raising the level cap to 99 (you got 80). You pissed off about that too? Were you thinking they would dump everything now and then nothing for the next two updates (that they also announced)?

What I really want to know is if they're going to be trending away from burn PTs.

SE didn't create burn parties, the players did. Since the update is not also pushing a personality change to the players, it's a safe bet that burns are going to be alive and well tomorrow.

Holy crap at RDM actually getting notable front-line equipment for once!

You'll only have to kill a lvl120 HNM with a 72hr pop window to get them.

ANd this is why I'm not coming back.

Too much shit to upgrade now, not to mention taking three of my jobs up another 24 levels and raising their subjobs.

What I really want to know is if they're going to be trending away from burn PTs.

They certainly want to keep people playing.

I wonder if PLD will go back to being a turtle tank now. I mean, some of the new gear is pretty insane with so much enmity and -damage.

My concern is what TNLs are going to turn into, I mean 75-80 isn't so bad... but it's going to start getting ridiculous, I hope they add faster ways to EXP.

And they said it was gonna be in this update, pretty sure it was Tanaka himself. IIRC, there was also something about it varying depending on what add-on you got, or some nonsense.


Well, if they are in fact holding off on AF3 until 99, it'd better be worth it. I was looking forward to snazzy new armor this month ; ; (we got a lot of cool shit don't get me wrong but I wanted to see the models)

EDIT: Yeah that's the other thing, nowhere did it say ANYTHING about adjusting the EXP tables, EXP from mobs, or EXP boost to signet. Real good job there SE, looks like the new trend will be level synch to a 75 on merit mode.

I have a feeling they're going to adjust the level curve eventually. After all, they've done it once before.

I wouldn't go leveling anything past 50 unless you really want to do it for the fun of it.

Re: Dat Mining Results (Holy CRAP @ Relic & Mythic Augments!)

Aks, the guy who first posted the relic augments said it was a typo because S-E changed the .dat layout, so RDM and BRD are still on the level 80 Mandau.

So, Rocl posted the Abyssea missions and quests. It truly is a parallel Vana'diel. Lots of the quests come from Abyssea versions of classic XI NPCs. It also kind of lends to the theory that

Abyssea

is indeed Lillith's Vana'diel. The NPCs are encamped in the zones since they have been run out of the cities

Oh, thanks. Not that it matters, I visit these threads mostly to troll. XD

And question: Why the fuck would they release AF3 for level 80 when the last set of AF caps at 75? Makes so much more sense for there to be a bit more of a gap between them, dontcha think? The first set maxes at 60, second at 75, 3rd could be really anywhere past 90 and that would make sense. Assuming SE follows some pattern. Which I know, is rough to expect from SE.

But thinking of armor sets such as those and the hoops (most likely) to go through to get them, why would they release those at 80? I could see if they weren't planning to raise the cap any further past that but still ... why then would they even bother with a 3rd set of AF? 80 seems too soon for that.

Hehe, I don't play anymore either. Just like to lerk to see all the new shiny stuff and wait for the main missions to finish so I can watch the rest on Youtube.

Re: Dat Mining Results (Holy CRAP @ Relic & Mythic Augments!)

So looks like no AF3 this update after all... all that hype from Vanafest for nothing.

Drama much? You jizzed twice on page one alone. And you think it was for nothing?

If we got AF3 at level 80, it'd be obsolete when the next patch came out. I don't want worthless gear, thanks.

Think about it.

Re: Dat Mining Results (Holy CRAP @ Relic & Mythic Augments!)

We didn't get armor trials either like we were supposed to according to the chart.

It already doesn't work. You can't sync to a character that's set to merit mode.

Really, do you think SE would raise the cap, open up new EXP camps and then be stupid enough to let people get away with syncing to 75 to merit? It would create a barrier on EXP camps that would be difficult for EXP PTs to get around.

Face it, colibri camps are now for people that want to EXP, not merit. Merit camps are now wherever the new cap is - burnable or not.

I do find it bothersome that SE has stated no plans on changing how EXP and merits are gained, because while it probably won't be a problem his update, if they don't implement a new scheme within the next two, they risk severely dividing the community between those that hit 75 and would like to merit and those that insist merits are for people at the new cap.

There is no way at present for EXP and Merits to be gained at the same time, which is really the only possible solution you can have for those new to the post-74 world. Implement an EXP/Merit slider bar for players, let them decide at what rate they gain merits and that would help a great deal. Add important repeatable, quests to gain limit points.

As of now, SE is only letting you have a choice between EXP and Merit - that's OK for now, but once they add another ten to nineteen levels, it will become an eyesore.

o.O well that's shitty.
