Bai RDM/DRK tank? and level cap quest

Under certain circumstances, the game may freeze when attempting to enter the Walk of Echoes.
As a temporary workaround for this issue, users who have not installed the "Treasures of Aht Urhgan" expansion will be unable to warp to the Walk of Echoes.

confused.

[Chen]

DRK tanking will be fine, stun/abs/JA's ontop of a strong DD will ake it so.

probably bai rdm though

Shortened notes:
1) No Accession Haste.
2) DNC gets more than DW1
3) Reading it literally, the level 40 cap area of Pso'xja won't have its monsters levels adjusted. (Gyre-Carlin and his delicious Concealing Cuffs)
4) Looks like they're adding caps to Acc+% foods.
5) RDM/NIN's biggest hate tools have been reduced or eliminated.
6) COP areas (but not sea) are possibly getting a level boost overall.
7) Nashmau earring. Einherjar fak yeah.
8) You can NPC Evoliths? Good, they finally have a use.
9) Wargfangs are fixed.
10) Aquaveil probably guards against interruption X times instead of reducing interrupt rate by 25% now. This makes it ridiculously useful in more general cases, but potentially renders it useless as far as a 102% spell interrupt build goes. Not that it matters, because RDM/NIN tanking seem likely in the past.

And so the Genkais begin again....

The job level cap has been increased to 80.
To increase character job levels to 76 and beyond, players must complete the new limit break quest "New Worlds Await" offered by the Nomad Moogle stationed at the Ru'Lude Gardens.

Looks like I won't be tanking on RDM anymore. It seems my Limbus Shell can't tank Omega without me, I wonder what they're gonna do now since our PLDs are shit.

[Arthars]

[Tsuko_Asura]

I'm sure everyone passed right by the lolsynergy, but they're finally giving us HQ level 74 rings.

rdm tanks on omega? this update is doing you a favour.

[Chen]

lol

i didn't say WAR or SAM level DD i just said strong

ontop of it's remaining hate spells/ja's, DRK will be fine.

ignoring your avatar pic too!

[lolwut]

I just raged so incredibly hard, I may have to leave work early. They took away the only part of /sch that I was excited about and likely ninja nerfed tanking at the same time.

I was cool with Rdm's abilities being given away fully powered to other jobs, but possibly nerfing one of the only things that makes the job fun is just too much.

[Tobi]

rdm tanks on omega? this update is doing you a favour.

I already have everything I need from limbus, but I still go to help them out. There's really only one PLD that's somewhat decent in our shell, the other 2(I think) can't tank for shit. So I pretty much have to help tank Omega for them, it's not exactly the best shell as you can see, it's more of a casual limbus shell I guess. Either way, I wonder what they're gonna do when they find out I can't tank anymore.

[Spira]

where is this BG chat?

[Mizango]

I'm sure everyone passed right by the lolsynergy, but they're finally giving us HQ level 74 rings.

Oh snap.
