Comprehensive Version Update Details (12/15/2010)

[Minnich]

Nothing really amazing, but the crafting and repairing things are nice little adjustments. It'll definitely help speed up crafting, Slightly underwhelmed, overall, though. Definitely not the miracle patch, yet.

The market ward shit is still annoying and I wish they'd develop something, anything, better. Whether it be an AH or something entirely new. Here's to hoping the search function makes things more bearable.

[The Q]

I wonder if these new NM's that have been added are R50 onry. I sure hope not.

My biggest gripe is a personal one and that's with the change of durability to a percentage. Mainly because it makes any further testing much less accurate. At least I was able to discover what I did. (It is actually MUCH better changed to what it is.)

Also I still don't see people using the proper wards. While they're better laid out now (especially in regards to armor) people will still flood the first on the list like mindless idiots.

Hopefully now and soon we can see more real content added in updates since a lot of technical issues have been addressed.

[Biggie]

I'm curious if they only added the NMs they have shown us, or if there are more.

[sruon]

Patch is live, 251 Mb.

[ZarakiKujata]

Also why do we get low lvl crafting armor from NPC but not low lvl crafting weapons?

[Hyan]

I think they're setting things up like in XI.. not that we ever bought that higher level shit from vendors because it was, well, shit.

Can these thing be dat mined to any degree?

[Lucavi]

Someone light the Gulkeeva signal.

[The Q]

I'm surprised there's so few discussion on this, be it here or across all the other popular sites.

Mathisten of the Cloven Hoof.

Say no more. You had me at hello.

[miokomioko]

I'm sure he's already downloading mods to that red dress. :3

Also, fuuuuck, that's probably the chef hat.

[Hyan]

How bout them normal r50 leves?

[Lucavi]

Cloven Hooves, people. The last time I read that, it was in Penny Arcade and I nearly had a heart attack.

I'm a sucker for good writing.

[Rivian]

Not as much as i had hoped. But Recipe button and new repair display is cool. Wards also seem divided better now. And if that tinkerers ward is actually first on the list in game, maybe all the retarded people will just set up shop there so the battle ward is actually useable.

Oh and Tortoiseshell Hora and Hedgemole Needle repair items changed, chyeahhhhh

[sruon]

Dunno if it was in-game before, but Oliphaunt make it sound like the lance crafted out of this Buffalo NM. (in which case, wtf rank 1.)

[Manako]

gartered corsets... hope it comes in more colors than red!

[ZarakiKujata]

its untradeable so maybe it scales to 50 like heirloom gear in wow or some of the stuff they added to XI later on?

[miokomioko]

Peregrine is Untradeable. I wouldn't imagine it's crafted. NM drop I'm thinking.

Oliphants!

Aren't the Buffalos... Buffalos and not Oliphants?

[sruon]

Mossy Horn R38
Uraeus Skin R49
Dodore Wing R40
Bloody Lance Head R41
Bloody Bardish Head R42

Might give an idea of NM levels.

This is FFXIV we're talking about...
