"Details on Next Week’s Version Update"

[Jem]

I'd settle for 100% upgrade rate on the T2 or even Red !! forcing an upgrade tbh. Anything more than that would be a huge bonus.

[Slycer]

Would be nice if all T3 VNMs dropped souls. And maybe add some +2s to the Heroes ones?

Don't forget today's update where "Empyrean upgrade items can now be obtained from certain notorious monsters." Maybe that's what they were referring to? We can hope....

[Jem]

Completely overlooked that. That would be amazing if that is the change they made.

[Tribe]

Do you know who you're talking about?

Hazhdiha Hrosshvalur Tomato Tamato.

[Alkimi]

Windhurst

Not just half the player base who can't spell it properly then.

[Byrthnoth]

Ironclad_Pulverizer as well, but I assume that was just some kind of .dat whoops.

[Hyan]

Wow, what's happening with S-E

Surprised no one mentioned this:

Pet, Wyvern and Automaton may become invincible under certain circumstances.

Looks like they are going to adjust the Magian -PDT that stacks with -PDT atmas since BST can get -107 PDT... and I just finished my two PDT axes too..

As much as I love bst, I think most sane people would agree that 100% PDT is pretty insane. PDT pet axes and gear will still have their uses though, so I can't reasonably complain.

[Aemora]

Not as good as I'd hoped.

They'll probably just cap it at 87.5 like the Avatars.

Has to be referring to this, which I posted on the official forum (just noticed I got a real response too, I should go back and fill out the form he gave me...http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...agian-Trial ):

Key item box change & multiple spawns for NMs is niiiice

Would have really liked to have seen Heqet and the other timed NMs that are involved with Empyeans changed to ???, but getting their KI from Gold Boxes now is a decent compromise. Extra ??? for the NMs is pure win.

Another asshat to the ignore list :D

SE: We cannot add Abyssea support NPCs to Port Windurst due to memory limitations with regards to Bastio......., oh right, no one gives a fuck about Bastion! MY BAD!

Aside from that, loving the changes. Was wondering though, I could've swore I saw a post mentioning they were looking at making repeatable Abyssea quests not require a zone to repeat? Was I just seeing things or was that in the works? Fame grinding is a fucking chore thanks to having to do that. Granted, only having 3-ish repeatable quests for fame per each of the 9 zones is a large annoyance as well since it takes 40-50 dings from it to get most of the quests opened up.

Yup, I remember them posting that too. Just seems they plan to add it later on.

Good, that shit was broken. Had a BST holding Hedjedjet for over 40m the other day while his fail friends zombied it and killed w/o grellow. The pet (rabbit) took 0 dmg the entire time from everything. All he had to do was use treats and wild carrot to counter poison. Just a bit overpowered....
