Hope they're going to limit the amount of possible augs or we're back to square one...
Haha just saw this sorry. Personally I can't fight butterflies because their tp moves tend to cause display driver crashes for me. I know Trav favored the butterflies because it was a super fast way to cap sparks but the people who really want fast JP went to harder places like Woh. Unfortunately you need a lot of acc for that so it's probably not a good option if you don't have a bard mule.
Not that I didn't expect further Alluvion Skirmishes, but eww yuck.
if it looks as cool as the alluvion weapons I'm down to clown
if it's ebur gear or something it can go fuck itself
I need more walls in my Mog House. All mine are covered in the flags. I'm kind of disappointed we didn't get an Adoulin Flag furnishing, but I would have had to take down another flag to put it up. (bastok. I'd take bastok down.)
dont be disrespectful to bastok, man! (windurst is the one that that fuckin sucks)
I just want AF3 but new skirmish is cool, I hope it has a fun concept. I really like the concept they had for skirmish 2 but they made it so stupid and boring... They could have had some cool mechanics in there.

My bets on the gear. Go ewww yuck yourself, that shits pretty sexy. From what they've said in the past, IMO we'll be getting heads and bodies in this next batch of Alluvion. Just a guess here from what they hinted at, but I'd put my money on Leaf stones dropping commonly here, with a new type of stone being the rarer drop. New stone can be used on armor/weapons to grant a third aug. No more increasing ilvl mess, no wiping augments, etc.
Yes we have an NPC who can store stones but do we really need NEW TYPES of stone? >____>
Wonder if we'll get +1 version of Alluvion weapons now.
Doubt it but who knows.
If they give a LIMITED amount of possible augments for each stone on each piece of equipment then the system might work a bit better.
I feel the problem comes when you have too many possible augments and it becomes incredibly frustrating and expensive to get what you want even using the "right" stone.
Comparing old sets, it worked kinda decently on Otronif or Gendewitha, but it was very frustrating on Hagondes and Iuitl.
Something like 2-3 possible augments max per stone on each piece sounds ok to me.
Edit:
Can stored stones be used directly to augment your gear or do you have to take them off the NPC and trade them regularly?
Edit2 @Mali:
The 3D model looks pretty bad, hope it's an unfinished one.
The Artwork on the other hand is pretty hot instead!
I kinda like that armor set, although we rarely wear 5/5 of new gear so...
Dat swapping might fix it, had not thought of that. Also that helm makes me glad for /displayhead off!
Is that only 1 armor set? i figured it looked that way cause it had 2 models mashed together...
The armor set with the model is already in the game, though it seems to only be shown in the RUN ergon quest line (specifically, a taru RUN wears it in the solo BC). I would almost say it's more likely to be a RUN empyrean armor set. Anyway, as for the ugliness, I did a little toying with it, and here's what it'd look like without those big honkin' shoulders:

edit: I suppose I should remove those knee plates too
JP post today asking that something be done in respect to rampant botting. Lomloon appears to be saying something along the lines of, "We ban them at regular intervals and your reports do matter."
Totally. /rolleyes
