    The May Version Update Approacheth! (05/02/2012)

    Word from the crow's nest is that the forthcoming version update will come swooping into Vana'diel in the middle of May!

    This update will feature a host of adjustments currently in the testing phase, such as job adjustments and adjustments to weapon skills/abilities for ranged weapons, so strap on your subligar, put on your party peg leg, and shove off for festive and fruitful feats!

    For a detailed description of the test server content, please visit the Testing in Progress subforums.


    Limbus expansion (maybe) and Legion fixes within two weeks.

    I think they would have mentioned Limbus if it was coming. Not even in the picture.

    Images shown seem to be taken from new 2hrs and legion. The Fafnir is definitely not the open zone one in Limbus.

    They'd have to really get their asses in gear considering the test server status to get Limbus in the update, so I'd say it's not coming, especially considering there was a community team post explaining that the rest of this week are JP national holidays so basically nothing will be getting done. All that's on the test server is the first tier of each of the new ones (no items or anything else).

    What's this "Voidwatch Final Chapter" still in development? I thought that was released; Provenance.

    I think thats probably Diffusion the BLU is doing anyway, its merit JA. New 2 hours arent scheluded till June/July update.

    Edit: had to go merit it to check! Yup its Diffusion. So they have two images for the same adjustments.

    Updates to it? They said they're tweaking the list of procs (specifically the Provenance list) some more.

    Well, at least we won't be disappointed by any new events with 0.05% drop rates.

    Doesn't seem even remotely exciting ._.

    Here's to hoping they finally enable Storage access from any moogle, or at least any major city :/

    Or, let us put the bloody event furnishings in storage, since they have the annoying habit of adding them to NPC or porter slip MONTHS after the events that they're obtained from.

    Two months would be an extraordinarily quick development cycle for a game with a much larger team working on it than FFXI.

    The "new" content might be Legion actually doable with a lower than perfect composition and skillset. Not even the JPs are doing it in shouts atm.

    I thought this part boiled down to the cost factor moreso than its difficulty

    It's not much more than Einherjar. If cost were the only problem you'd at least see people shouting for event-LS recruitment like with Ein.

    The cost of Legion is like nothing compared to the Cost of Voiddusts when you are finally out of stones and still miss tons of gear.

    Get a full ally splitting the cost and its barely worse than Limbus. Really no excuse to not be able to have 20k for an event, especially these days.

    I wonder if SE gets the message when no one does their new events.
    Stubborn is the only word I can think of. Not really a good approach to paying customers.

    Just because YOU dont do them, doesnt mean no ones doing them. You arent the center of the universe.
