I'll throw it in during T2, sometimes also during Brayflox to speed up bomb knockbacks.

Where? It seems exactly the same as NA except in the bit about changing tomestone rewards French doesn't say "Duty Roulette: Trials"

Défis is the name used when you queue for Duty Roulette: Trials? I mean my argument is they mistakenly added "Duty Roulette" in front of the category name in NA.

Défis should equivalent to "Trials" in English version. And Duty Roulette: Trials should be Mission aléatoire: défis using the Ramuh (Hard) line as comparison.

In German the Roulette should be called "Zufallsinhalten unter Prüfungen" but in the German tomestone reward table (like the French) the extremes are listed under "Prüfungen" There is no indication of Roulette in German or French.

EDIT: My knowledge of German grammar is way less and I don't understand it quite as much, but it's still evident there are separate terms for the addition of Ramuh to DR: Trials and the Tomestone Rewards for Extremes.

I'm surprised they didn't do a Trials: Hard and Trials: Extreme.

Also, weren't they considering nerfing Titan EX this patch? I thought I recall them mentioning that.

I don't understand your post fully but that could be an extension of trying to understand 4 languages in a short period of time. Mucking around in Google Translate for JP that yes, again, different terms are used for Ramuh (Hard) to Duty Roulette and the category of instances getting their tomestones adjusted for first clears which includes extremes.

Yes, then we are in agreement. The error is on the English notes including "Duty Roulette" where they shouldn't. (Well, that's more likely than the other 3 languages being in error)

Not really a fan of Expert roulette staying as a three-dungeon roulette but oh well

You being tired of Longstop is the result of another retarded design choice and it's sad they're not addressing that one either, though. There's zero reason why the most efficient ways to obtain both mythology and soldiery involve spamming a single dungeon.

They should really do what Warcraft did: lower the rewards from the individual dungeons and add rewards to the base roulette. If using the roulettes was the most efficient way to farm tomes (even after you've used up the daily bonus) we'd have a lot less Brayflox burnout.

Would've preferred them to just add the new 3 to the current Expert Roulette, but I can see why they separated them with a 15 ilvl difference in the minimum requirement.

But kind of cool to see "coil-1 difficulty" in 4 mans? :\

I can't find the doc but I remembered them saying they were planning to add an Extreme Primals roulette. I assume they'd have announced that independently here and then the added tomes bonus table would make more sense.

Anyone else see the Hyur male and notice the resemblance to good old Tommy?

I, for one, welcome our new Black Chocobo overlords.

The following items can now be dyed：
Gallant Coronet / Gallant Surcoat / Gallant Cuisses / Gallant Gauntlets / Gallant Sollerets / Temple Circlet / Temple Cyclas / Temple Gaskins / Temple Gloves / Temple Boots / Fighter's Burgeonet / Fighter's Cuirass / Fighter's Breeches / Fighter's Gauntlets / Fighter's Jackboots / Drachen Armet / Drachen Mail / Drachen Breeches / Drachen Gauntlets / Drachen Greaves / Choral Chapeau / Choral Shirt / Choral Tights / Choral Ringbands / Choral Sandals / Healer's Circlet / Healer's Robe / Healer's Culottes / Healer's Gloves / Healer's Boots / Wizard's Petasos / Wizard's Coat / Wizard's Tonban / Wizard's Gloves / Wizard's Crakows / Evoker's Horn / Evoker's Doublet / Evoker's Waistclout / Evoker's Ringbands / Evoker's Thighboots / Scholar's Mortarboard / Scholar's Gown / Scholar's Culottes / Scholar's Gloves / Scholar's Boots

By completing the quest "Simply to Dye For," players can speak with Kakalan in Mor Dhona at Revenant's Toll (X:22 Y:5) to exchange artifact armor, along with the appropriate augmentation item, for augmented artifact armor. Unlike regular relic armor, augmented artifact armor can be dyed any color of your choice.

Uh... so which is it? Is the old stuff dyeable (if so, what's the point of Augmented), or is only the new Augmented dyeable and therefore the first part there pointless wrong?

I'm surprised they're adding echo to Moogle and Leviathan extreme already. I didn't think they would nerf any 2.2 content until 2.4.
