[dev1007] Voidwatch Emerges!

The forthcoming version update will feature a new battle system called “Voidwatch.”

In Voidwatch, bands of six to eighteen members will square off against “Voidwalkers,” savage entities that have breached planar bounds to invade multiple landscapes spanning past and present. By slaying these manifestations of terror, you and your stalwart comrades will gradually come to discover the true nature of the threat that has all of Vana’diel up in arms.

The upcoming May patch contains the first installment of this new challenge, and readies eighteen fields whereupon you will duel the dreaded Voidwalkers. The battle will expand to yet more areas in ensuing releases.

We will provide more information regarding Voidwatch in subsequent announcements, so stay tuned and steel yourself for battle!

No new zones for us!

[Draylo]

Wow that thing looks beastly.

[Karbuncle]

I just noticed everything worn in that picture is new armor. (NM is wearing some form of SAM empy but that doesnt count)

look at the Axe, its like, a stick with a crescent moon.

[grantlogan]

New gear with feathers! I wonder how it will compare to af3+2.

Teehee, though I had the initial thought of "Gilgamesh, fuck yeah!" too. Then I remembered Gilgamesh is already in the game, and I made myself sad.

[Karbuncle]

Looks like the feather-shit might be THF-related, As It looks like Their Gimp Galka is fulltiming THF's knife (or Parazonium)

[Kazen]

That mob looks like Gilgamesh from other FF games.

[Fiarlia]

Indeed he does, FFXI's Gilgamesh NPC makes me rageguy.

[Karbuncle]

He's Missing a sword too. Also, These might be the uses for Kindred-Crests High-Kindred Crests, With 18 Battlefields, and 6-18 players, They sound like BCNMs

I'm the one who suggested it over on the official forums, lol.

I PREDICTING FUTURE LEAVE ALONE

[jimbobsonofgod]

what zone is that ?
I wanna say toraimarai canal or inner/outer Horutoto ruins.

[Karbuncle]

what zone is that ?

I really have no GD Clue, the walls are rocky, and that Door in the background is un-cavelike. (Looks man-made, very even) Ceiling is too high for my one idea (Horutoto Ruins/Eldieme) . I don't know... I think they'll be new Battlefield Zones, Like ruhotz/Etc.

[Gokulo]

Not sure if happy with the members number span but new stuff is always good

[Fiarlia]

There's a Stirge in the bottom right hand corner.

I think the ruins may be a good guess, right by where the cave section ends and the Ruins themselves begin, think near where the NM that drops the Trailer's Tunica is. I think that's the item, Maltha is the NM.

Well if it is Horutoto Ruins, It throws away the BCNM idea. It may be a ZNM-Type System. Trade in Crests/High-Crests, Get Pop item, Pop NM. SE did say they were looking into making it possible to pop Multiple of the same NM, It could be because of this System.

if its another VNM-Style-Random-Upgrade system, I am going to be very, very disappointed.
