DAT Mining Discussion (2011-05-09)

[Nameless]

all i know is thats my torchcleaver neck piece :/

I concur. I did a quick math on that, it should be better than snow gorget on average. They also added a few VIT feet pieces that look promising.

[Limlight]

really think it'll beat neck/belt combo?

[akron666]

Any news about the direct download for the patch of the current update?

[Limlight]

If you have good isp just start it the old fashioned way. I'm already @ 38 min left on my main pc and 52min on my slower one.

My thoughts exactly.

[Malacite]

never said it was hard, just said they made it easier for gimp whms... I mean seriously you have spent some hours yourself on all the trials for this staff ¬.¬

Heh, it's totally worth it though. Bottled Pixies did indeed suck, thankfully when I did it no one was camping the Yagudo by the Meriph. Gate Crystal so I was free to recall > kill Yag Priest > Recall Pash > Chocobo to Fey Spring > repeat.

Still took a while though @_@; WHM killing be slow.



So any concrete info on how this "Ensphere" shit works?

So I read over the notes and whatnot but I didn't see exactly what the limitation on Voidwatch would be. Is it tied to Traverser stones or an X-hour lockout or something?

They mention voidstones or some shit, one sec I'll find link.

Basically it sounded like a new traverser stone

i think i saw a once daily event but it might have been someone making a comment like yours

edit: more then likely the new traverser stone system like Fiev said

There's a 'talisman' that reduces voidwatcher stone cooldown time, so I imagine it's the same type of system.

all here

If it's exactly how it's described then it's just traverser stones with a new name, even have "abyssites" that lower the time it takes to get them.

Weren't they supposed to expand the list of mobs that give +2 items? Did I misread that?

[Phoenyx]

It's in the patch notes. They just referenced the [dev1003] thread rather than put the full details in the notes.

[TheDirtyHobo]

Considering you literally use cruor to get your buffs and as a reward, I doubt there's anyone doubting that Voidwatcher is abyssea-related.

[Deader2818]

They did, a lot of the stuff they said they would do they did but instead of re-listing it, they just added what dev tagged discussed it. Wont know who drops what till people go and kill the mobs again.

[dev1003]Abyssea Adjustments
The upcoming major version update will see the following adjustments made to Abyssea:

New Ways to Obtain Empyrean Upgrade Items
Empyrean +1 seals will be made obtainable via new battlefields.
Empyrean +2 items will be made obtainable from notorious monsters in additional Abyssea areas as follows:

Heroes of Abyssea area items will also appear in Scars of Abyssea.
Scars of Abyssea area items will also appear in Vision of Abyssea.

This is it.
It doesnt help the overcrowding at all, it will just spread out like a pest to the Visions Zones too now.

[Priran]

Sphere sounds like SE's term for what players have been calling auras which is good because aura is a stupid word

[Fievel]

Yeah, all that's really going to do is crowd visions NM's even more.

[Khelek]

Anyone know what creates a set with the Mextli Harness?
