Man I hope some good news comes this week. I also hope they fix failing @ 100% when crafting.

[Corrderio]

Doubt they will do that. I don't mind the break, but halved SP for breaking at 100% is fail.

At least we'll get info this week, getting tired of people dick riding Tanaka, saying XI was a great game and XIV should be more like that, and so on.

Yeah man. Wtf is up with the Tanaka threads popping up everywhere now. 6months ago everyone wanted to hang him, now he's Jesus with a keyboard.

[Hyan]

I bet he's Yoshida's boss.

I would be happier even if they capped it at 99% if your durability dropped to 0 on your last action. At least it would look less retarded. I can understand forcing a fail when your durability doesn't hold out regardless if the progress.

[Meko]

Right. I'd be down for that. Just don't let me think I won....when I didn't. Hi2u "sea" creatures from FFXI.

gyazaraa = engrish for 'gatherer'

I saw someone made the DoL connection, but not pointing out that its an english word that has been raped by the moon.

[Alkar]

Any news for DoL is welcome. I doubt those classes will see many updates if any for the time being though.

Lol Gathering Q and A is going to be like mass QQ fest about double fatigue that comes with it and

"we'll look into it." responses.

I wish they would have made gathering more fun instead of the massive bore and retardation it is.

While I am enjoying fishing, the system of having the grades determine exp rather than the fish is just weird. If I make a hard catch I should get significantly more exp. If I catch multiple fish I should get a bonus. Come SE, you did this a bit better last time.

Fishing is kinda boring imo. Each class should have a totally unique minigame instead of a slightly different one for each.

Don't even understand why a mini game should even be involved, it didn't stop botting, all it did was add something very unnecessary. This is just one of those things where trying to be different because gathers are its own class went wrong.

[Corrderio]

Should have said this a bit earlier, but where did you find that info at Hyan?

"Tomorrow, or about the day after tomorrow may be enough time for us to introduce an overview of the current "Materia Craft System" as expected. We are waiting on information, so please wait a little longer."

There is another post about re-balancing Behest.

Ah, here is the post about Gathering.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...695#post159695

Let me take a looksee...

The Q&A looks to be themed around "About Gathering", and more of a general player Q&A instead of a blueprint of changes. Set to be released next week (after June 5th) maybe Tuesday.

[Lordender]

I hope the Behest changes are good, I mean this system could be so much more epic with the right changes.

The post doesn't say much. It was in reply to a player question about having "bosses" for Behest. Instead of like the two extra goats or elementals.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...699#post159699

"Thank you for the Behest idea. The person in charge has been informed of it. We will consider NMs or Bosses for Behest. The immediate plan for Behest in 1.18 is to balance the Behest levels, including compensation, and to increase the variation of mobs."

[Corrderio]

Also on the gathering thing, there is a NA thread to submit questions if anyone wants to ask something:
