man these "review" letters always get me down
man these "review" letters always get me down
Well, based on that opening movie, Seems like a couple months or a year has passed by since the end of the 2.55. Unless Raubahn is just so damn manly he sprouts a beard like it's nothing. That's gonna be weird to see as a new player starting fresh in Heavensward and questing from 2.0 -> 3.0.
really need clarification on whether both modes of Alexander work like CT or not
While all of this new content will be available from the start of FINAL FANTASY XIV: Heavenward, content tied to weekly lockouts will not be available from the start.
We want to make sure the players are able to enjoy the leveling process without being rushed to the high-end content. Additionally, unlike the Coil of Bahamut, players will be able to re-enter a floor in Alexander even if you have cleared it (similar to the Crystal Tower). You will be able to challenge it as many times as you wish until you obtain the item that you want. Also, even if you Need on an item, you will still be able to help others with the progression of Alexander.
Looks like they haven't decided to change the shit gearing system that they had in 2.0.
Only 2 sets of top ilvl gear. Raid gear, and Esoterics gear. GG SE. U win. We lose.
Yes. Basically even if you do get loot, you can still go in and help people much like now unlike the current system.
@ the esoteric/coil gear.. it looks like normal coil gear is gonna be slightly above the Law tome gear maybe? I guess? with esoteric/savage being the best.
thing is , is the loot locked per turn or you get 1 loot for all turns weekly ..
They previously said that the live letter in April was primarily to show the full opening movie and talk about general details like areas so I'm not terribly surprised it was basically a summary. Remember, a lot of that info was really only dropped in the Famitsu interview and not widely announced. The letter in May is supposed to have quite a bit more detail, with specific info about the battle system (presumably discussions about stat adjustments, new abilities, new jobs, etc.). So... please look forward to it? lulz
Man i was hoping they would find an alternative to Tombstone grinding --> Coil Grinding
but alas, SE
ITT: People being shocked at old info. Literally the only real piece of info we got was the date on the benchmark.
No one should expect new, mindblowing info until a month from release (end of May).
So for as much as we know, the content pattern is the same in Heavensward? I was hoping for some midcore battle content or worthwhile shit to grind on the side of spamming Alex (because chest RNG), but there's nothing to that effect.
I still don't quite understand this. We got a ton of new information and confirmations. We got quite a bit of footage and plenty of screenshots. We didn't get any less than during a regular Live Letter. Here are things that they hadn't explicitly said/shown before:
Spoiler: show
I'd say that's quite a bit of new information.
Also, best part: Dhalmel confirmed
Spoiler: show
Have they clarified on the difficulty of Alexander HM? Sounds like NM Is gonna be a joke and if HM is truly harder than Savage then they have given 99% of the population less content to do since there is no middle ground. I like the current difficulty of current coil, so not sure how i feel about stupid difficult or stupid easy mode
