Biggest news from this update is likely that it was posted by a new ComRep! On both sides of the forum! Hoping really hard that this is Camate's replacement and NAside will finally stop being neglected. XD
Nevermind. >_> The new usable items that happen to match up to SR enemies has me thinking it might be possible to PICK who we fight now, which may be a bigger deal.
Let's not fool ourselves the best thing to come out of this update is Xzomit Mount
9 items added by "Malobra" that involve the 9 sinister reign NPC's...thats either the next Ygnas Directive, or the July 15 campaign will involve Sinister Reign
The 15th campaigns are collections of existing campaigns with nothing new as far as I've seen them say, so it seems rather unlikely that any items would be attached to it.
Since the items are called "Decanters" which are basically bottles for booze to be poured out of, I really get the feeling that they can be "poured out" to summon the associated boss.
1st thing I'm doing is HP'ing to Ra'kaznar to talk to Malobra to see how much they cost. :3 (I'm guessing that they will be purchased with bayld from him.) Hopefully they are cheap enough that you can pick all 3 bosses per run w/o doubling+ the entry cost.
I'm betting that the reward for finishing it is the new tomato furnishing. >_>;; Also think it's likely that it's what the new "Moglification: Resist Poison" comes from, which might actually be good if it's near immunity.
------
Also somewhat random, but I'll bet 1mil gil to the first 5 takers that next month will have an "Ancient Melody: M" KI. >:3
AND SERVERS ARE UP! :D
Decanters are not from Malobra. ;; Maybe drops from the bosses themselves?
Also not from any of the coalitions. ><;;
Too lazy to multi quote but the 15th events aren't campaigns. They were specifically this month but it just says something new and different each month
Also seriously doubt the moglification is anywhere near immunity considering we already have ones for para, virus, silence, petrification, and curse
I think it's safe to assume it's gotta be something about "forcing" a certain NPC to pop in the next SR run you do?
Would be cool, supposing they are not super annoying to farm/obtain.
And MEH at no new gear, was hoping for the 5 remaining Ambuscade Sets to be released.
I want my goddamn Ayanmo+2 already!
They explained it as a mix of normal campaigns. The "something different each month" probably alludes to each month having a different mix.
Also, decanters most likely do not drop from SR itself. Just did 6x runs w/ zero drops, everyone confirmed that there was nothing similar to personal loot, and didn't show up in anyone's rewards. Party member suggested maybe login campaign, which actually seems possible. Dreading hearing that they're connected to the Ygnas Directive and hoping it really is something like login instead.
New Ygnas Directive
Spoiler: show
The decanters don't let you choose your SR boss. Rather, they dispense a random item from that boss when used (one time use).
Item found from dial, so no info on normal acqusition method.
Is the item perf augs at least? Or still random?
Spoiler: show
Decanters are probably from the #ANV gobbie keys.
Apparently the broths have SYNTHESIS recipes added not SYNERGY like the poor translation says on the update notes.
Sugary Broth [COOKING 99] Water Crystal, Walnut, Honey, Ulbuconut, Rolanberry
Poisonous Broth [COOKING 100] Water Crystal, Gnatbane, Venom Dust, Distilled Water, Umbril Ooze
Sticky Webbing [COOKING 100] Gnat Wing, Twitherym Wing, Chapuli Wing, Mantid Carapace
Levels need confirmation.
The recipes SHOULD be synthesis, since the devs specifically agreed to add normal recipes for the few jugs that were still synergy-onry.
Been getting crashes since the update. the funny thing is it wasn't crashing earlier today when the update hit,m but now I'm crashing right after the first load screen before the title screen comes up.
Edit: Still crashing even without windower so it isn't windower-related. running a PoL file check to see if that fixes it.
