I'm going to chime in just to say that people need to get off Avesta's tip. They've recognized player accomplishments before, yes, but at the very least it's presumptuous to say that a piece of equipment with mage-centric stats with Avesta's name on it should be attributed to the player instead of the (much) more significant cultural reference. The Avesta scriptures formed the central tenets of an entire religion and spawned an entire language. Geographically, bangles themselves are South Asian, just as Zoroastrianism is.

Besides, even THF can equip the fucking thing.

Believe the notes say the default state is on. You'd have to turn it off to CFH.

its on by default

Hmm...looking at the dat mining, Xanthe's info is showing that the tatters and scraps for augmenting abjuration and sky gear aren't EX. That could be a good thing or a very, very bad thing.

That's the beauty of the name actually. It could be refering to Avesta or some cultural reference but imagine Avesta was named xxSeporothxx...that would be a disaster. Luckily, no one with a name derived from FF7 amounted to anything worth acknowledging

Tradeable is good, it's not like the seals aren't that way to begin with. The abj. requirement is still going to be EX i'd assume. I'm just struggling to think if I actually saved any abj. papers from back in the day... that's going to be the painful bit.

Did anyone notice the rare/ex "goad" items that had a description regarding forbidden weapons in the findings? What could this be, I wonder?

**Kanachan** · 2011-05-09 16:07

Popping fragment mobs, most likely.

I've looked through the update notes, and a few pages of this thread and I still had a question.

Any mention of actual abyssea NM changes yet? or is it still the "making changes to improve congestion blah blah blah"

*edit*

and I just realized, wrong thread.

Sorry

**Fievel** · 2011-05-09 16:14

I can't even express how happy I'll be if atmacites really are that worthless.

Until people put on their nostalgic glasses for abyssea and miss the way things were. lol
