Neo Nyzul Isle (Will FFXI continue? Find out on the next FFXI XP Pack!)

If they make it so wrap around is impossible I will probably do this event. Wrap around and floor missing was total insult to injury for people putting in the effort.

[Karbuncle]

Might not having a thf with you to bully it not work?

Bully only works for THF Main. /THF doesn't get the "Anywhere SA" bonus, Unless i'm reading what you said wrong. it hurt my brain.

It looks like they are going to allow you to set a target floor to reach, 80 or 100 for example, and that will cap your run so you can't ??? jump past your target but you also can't progress further if you clear that floor. It's google translate though so I could be completely wrong.

This sounds... really good... but it's going to SIGNIFICANTLY increase the amount of level 80 (+3) gear that gets created because it's going to make F80 really easy to reach. I'm not complaining, but if the intention was to balance F80 gear with the assumption that it was somewhat hard to get, that's no longer going to be the case if this is indeed what they are adjusting. I just hope they do these adjustments sooner than later, even before the March update would be nice, because once they start adding more and more level 99 gear, I have a feeling this Nyzul stuff is going to be far less appealing.

[Toxeus]

sounds good

They already said that a few days ago but I think this one says that if you kill, let's say F60, a bunch of times then you can pick an F80 item but I think it says you won't be able to do that with F100 because then everyone would just cap at F80 and do that a bunch of times.

If you beat 100 once, you can pick a 100 equipment of your choice... rather than requiring you to beat 80 multiple times.

Also, I don't think Amnaf is in NIU at all. It might have been mixed up in the dats because he's involved with other fights in Nyzul from missions, it would be really weird and nonsensical (story-wise) if he was in Nyzul Uncharted. Most likely it's just Vryko on 80 and just Dvali Jonah on 100. Dvergr gonna be so fkin annoying to zerg with Hellsnap.

he only use cackle and shit when we did him, pretty sure he was saving hellsnap/thundarous shriek for under 25%

just like if nobody knows yet, or it hasnt been mentioned yet but lord vyrko only uses eternal damnation/charm under 25%, and he spams them ; ; usually someone always gets hit by eternal damnation, so make sure you bring holy waters!

I've been following Neo Nyzul for a while because the whole fiasco has been interesting, and I found that Itou (the Developer) made a Dev post here concerning the topic.

Quick translation of the two things in the post.

1.) Plans of adding a 'stopper' where you can choose which floor (20/40/60/80/100) to stop on when you enter. Once you choose which floor, you won't be able to overshoot that floor in exchange for not being able to progress any further.

2.) Acquisition of Key Items in which where you defeat the Floor bosses enough times, you will be able to get to choose one item from the floor above (ex: Defeat Floor 20 Boss X amount of times, get key item that let's you choose a piece of equipment that a Floor 40 boss will drop).

Take it what you will.


Edit: Seems like I was a bit late to the thread with this info, but because I don't think an semi-accurate translation has been made I'll just leave this here as is. =P

On the plus side, they're conal and he's usually dead before the effects of them matter. It's less annoying than Stheno spamming Gorgon Dance anyway. And fuck that troll when he decides to individually Haymaker all your DD's so everyone is amnesia'ed D:

Gulool is the preferential one of them imo as at least you can just Cleric's away Miasma

Fuck yeah?

[ikariiiii]

im glad the JP player base was able to make them aware that the event is not as balanced as they proclaimed in their recent NA blurb about it.

Seems reasonable then if that's the case. Clearing 80 is definitely in the realms of reliable, especially if you can set a stopper there.

Greetings!

I’d like to share a message from Director Mizuki Ito in regards to upcoming changes to Nyzul Isle Uncharted Region.

Hello. Director Mizuki Ito here.

Thanks so much for your feedback!
Based on feedback we received from actual play, we are planning to make the below changes.

• Lower token cost of temporary items
This was already conveyed previously.
　
• Implementation of a “stopper” feature
After entering, we will be changing the system so that you will be able to set which floor you would like to aim for: 20/40/60/80/100.
While we will be removing the feature where you can go past your destination floor, once you reach the destination floor and fight the notorious monster you will no longer be able to progress to the next floor.
　
• Key item/equipment exchange system
This is the system that I mentioned previously where if you clear a boss floor a certain amount of times, you will be able to obtain an item of your choice from that same boss.
Meaning that if you defeat the notorious monster on floor 20 above a certain number of times, you will be eligible to receive one of the possible rewards for floor 20.
　
We are also currently looking into the direction of obtaining the stronger equipment through this method. For example, if you are able to defeat the notorious monster on floor 20 above a certain amount of times, you will be able to receive one of the possible rewards for floor 40.
　
In this case, the merits of aiming for floor 100 would become weak, so in the event that you defeat a notorious monster on floor 100, we are planning to make it possible to obtain one item from that floor by clearing it just one time.

I'm impressed. Future updates lookin good

Lost me at the second to last part. Just another means for morons to get the best available gear.

[Darkmagi]

Deal with it, etc. Retards still won't get 80 easily.

[Dotsudoku]

They won't have to. They'll just need to grind 20.

[Karbuncle]

They won't have to. They'll just need to grind 20.

You should have a degree in being wrong all the time!

This^

It sounds like "Beat 20 Boss x times = 40 piece" "Beat 40 Boss x Amount of time = 60 Piece", Not "Beat 20 boss X amount of times to turn it into a 40 which turns into a 60 etc etc".

To get a level 80 Piece, They'd have to beat floor 60 often, to get a floor 100 piece, they'd have to beat floor 80 often.

Gimps can barely achieve 60, Not likely they'll see 80. The way its worded, Its "Beating the boss" not "Turning in the shit armor for higher piece". So you won't be able to mass farm floor 20 for shit armor and turn it into 40's, which turn into 60's, etc etc.

Not really ....

Today only the A+ students with a TON of luck on their side will get the best gear.

With the change, even the A- students will get some gear and maybe even some really lucky B+ students. Everyone else will still fail.

[Aemora]

Retards pay just as much as you do for the game. Why shouldn't they be able to get anything you can?
