Dev Tracker: Discussion

[Prothescar]

It's the weekend, so we won't be seeing anything until Monday

[Slycer]

Couple random notes from Matsui posts which haven't been translated yet -

1- There's a confirmed glitch when you use Diffusion on blue magic enhancement spells which give more than one status effect (examples cited were Carcharian Verve and Reactor Cool) along with gear/effects which should extend the duration of the effect - the duration doesn't get extended. They're looking into it.

2- They're adding a warp destination point near the entrance to the Sacrificial Chamber. They're also gonna add a thing where you can get into the Sacrificial Chamber more easily after doing it once with the Unlit Lanterns crap (probably a key item).

3- Looks like they're removing restrictions on repeating Assaults since they're mainly used for ranking up/Mythics now and the points are basically irrelevant. Also sounds like they may finally allow solo Assaulting in this update too.

^ This right here!! I've been waiting for this.. this should make it easier for me to get captain rank since the majority of the assaults I have left are the T10 NMs.

Now if they can do something about the ToAU Beast kings pop times.

Eldieme Necropolis gates KI when

[Seha]

By assault restrictions you mean number of people required? Now that is very interesting...

[Darkmagi]

I read it as tags, which I hope is true.

[Kincard]

Well aside from Thaumas Coat and Nares Cap/Legs I'm pretty sure most pieces of NNI is outdated as well, so no real reason to barrier that I guess.

[Darkmagi]

Nares cap is outdated, phorcys body is not.

[Prothescar]

official translation doesn't seem to mention anything about tags and such, just the 3 person limitation being lifted.

[Darkmagi]

That's depressing, mythic cockblock is still in place. Removing the entry requirement doesn't even change a ton either, since there are a fair number you can't reliably solo without cheating.

[Seha]

Well, looks like I'll be subbing for december too then, at least to get rid of those assault books and check another thing off the list!

Unfortunately they have a couple of times said they are perfectly fine with it sometimes taking a month for them to spawn because that is part of the difficulty of the getting the weapon. Hell they even applied that mythic logic to other stuff like hydra

[Darkmagi]

I'm pretty sure the second part is just them being dumb and not remembering how to make the weapons they created.

Yeah I saw that but I'm not accepting that.. it would be ok if you could get the titles through besieged since you can't they need to do something about it. I'm sure they will at some point.

Soloable assaults? Sounds like a great way to place some bait for clipper abusers if they so desired.

Mainly curious if the AP reward will go up for entering as a solo/duo, or locked to however much a trio gets.

Spoiler: show

Include Ashu Talif assaults as being solo'able also and I'll be very happy

[Darkmagi]

Believe me, they don't need to bait for them. If they truly cared in perusing clipper users, they have ample means of catching them.

[Kincard]

There's a couple of them I'm kind of wondering if they're even possible to do solo. Like the one where you look for the ring, that one's like impossible without 2 other people. Lebros Supplies is another obvious one unless you're clippering all the things.

Given the way they handle things lately I get the feeling they'll just leave them as-is, basically just force you to group up for those only.

[Treize Kordero]

Soloing Lebros Supplies would suck... even with 6 people it's a bit of a pain. Anyway I just hope they change the tags to allow continuous accumulation kinda like Abyssea/Voidwatch stones. I think this will help people who want to solo assaults for rank and mythic, and still be able to do Nyzul/NNI with friends.
