- FINAL FANTASY XI

[Update Details]
- Increased the drop rate of certain items in Wildskeeper Reive.

lolwut? How does shit like this happen?

**Karbuncle** · 2013-04-12 13:39

Wonder if Skirmish pieces drop from Wildskeeper Reives.

Real reason: They had no drop pool, But a server unlocked one of them so they were like "Oh shit, we have to put their drops in", so they emergency maint'd them in. (psst I know this ain't true its just a funny thought

, AV Anyone?)

**NynJa** · 2013-04-12 13:42

Theres probably more they're keeping hush hush on for whatever reason...Why not just take down the 3 zones with Wildkeeper Reives?

**Prothescar** · 2013-04-12 13:50

probably for the same reason that they did a full server maintenance to increase mining rates in one zone

**Buffy** · 2013-04-12 14:08

Spaghetti. Spaghetti code everywhere.

FINAL FANTASY XI

[Update Details]
-Increased Colonization Rate when conquering Colonization Reive and Lair Reive Colonization Rate.
-Decreased attenuation of Colonization Rate when waiting.
-Fixed an issue when engaging Achuka, that monsters around character will not appear.

What does #2 mean? All 3 sound like their JP>NA translator was sleeping and they tossed that shit into google translate. Maybe Slycer can translate better lol

**Kincard** · 2013-04-16 07:45

Pretty much what it says, the rate goes down slower when people leave an area alone. It is weird they always like to say things in a complicated way when they don't need to, though.

**Spira** · 2013-04-16 09:25

i thought it meant the exact opposite?

my interpretation is that it decreases the rate that colonization drops when no colonization or lair reives are up?

edit: Japanese version simply says the colonization "decay rate" has been reduced.

I guess attenuation is a good word

**Kincard** · 2013-04-16 09:30

Think we might have a gap in communication because we basically just said the same thing, aside from the reives not being up thing. As far as I can tell that's not a prerequisite, they just decreased the rate at which the colonization rate drops.

I'd post the quote from the JP POL site if I didn't still get that weird thing where my post gets chopped in half whenever I put Japanese in it.

**Spira** · 2013-04-16 09:38

[ Code ] does the job pretty well.

Code:

時間経過によるコロナイズ・レートの減衰量が引き下げられました。

I think it actually just means that the rate that colonization drops has been reduced.

**vagus** · 2013-04-16 11:23

So what does "rate that colonization drops has been reduced" mean then?

**Spira** · 2013-04-16 11:24

the rate at which the colonization % naturally decreases for each zone over time has been slowed down.

**Fwahm** · 2013-04-16 11:25

Random numbers incoming!

Let's say that colonization went up by 0.2% for every reive destroyed, and went down by 1% every 2 hours.

After the update, colonization might go down by say, 1% every 4 hours.

**dasva** · 2013-04-16 12:09

Attenuation seems like a good fit for that and what they were doing. Not a commonly used word but I like it
