Dev Tracker: Discussion

[Kincard]

honestly assaults and einherjar are annoying but arn't we getting into another alex drought since salvage is worth shit again

in b4 salvage III

[Treize Kordero]

Hopefully removal of the party member restriction will help revive the alex drops again but I don't think people would mind Salvage 3 or NNI-2 if it meant that gear becoming ilvl 119.

[Draylo]

Well they posted the same thing in german but translated it says:

Hello Nyclia,

To rescue (salvage) I currently have no information, but we will remove the restrictions on assignments (Assault).

So no Salvage soloing from what it seems.

[Hirronimus]

I will never understand their logic. Is it just the company's agenda or just how Japanese people are in general?

[Bukadan]

i would mind if they made a salv3 or nni2 because all it would do is either be too easy to produce ilevel119 gear, or be actually up to snuff difficulty wise and everyone will complain and it will get nerfed to shit like everything else. if gear that is ilevel 119 or higher doesnt come from something as difficult/more difficult than delve, then those leeching ingrates who complain on the official forums got their way.

All SE gotta do is put something useful for RDM in the gear for Salvage The Third and NNI Part Deux and that difficulty will never change.. at all... plus isn't the new Delve la Delve gonna be ilvl 124? or am I imagining things?

[Bukadan]

im talking about the actual difficulty, though. they talk about how they want to move away from 18 man content and im pretty sure people are under the assumption now that they can get ilevel 119 gear playing their gameboy pockets while main healing a party as whm, as it was in the days of abyssea.

[arus2001]

I'd rather them just make Dynamis, Salvage, and Nyzul fully accessible permanent zones if they're at all considering some kind of future revamp. Can just nip their whole shitty pseudo-instancing in the bud that way.

[detlef]

One of the most important aspects of this last update is that it gave people things to buy and sell (RME and WoE items).

I think people recognize Salvage as a quick and easy money-making alternative. Multi-boxing, you can make about 2m in an hour consistently, so there should always be people willing to farm Salvage strictly for money.

[Ophannus]

Wonder if nyzul will be included in the solo assault restriction lift only because it's virtually inevitable to run into same time lamps which is an auto-fail if you do.

There's at least one assault that's assault that it's impossible to do solo for the same reason, so obviously "It's impossible to do this solo" != "They won't let you enter it solo".

[dasva]

Also I've gotten a 5 lamp same time triboxing before. If it wasn't for how close they were and extreme movement speed it would have been impossible

[noodles355]

I thought there was a limit on the number of lamps for PTs less than 3? Like PT number+1 or something?

[Darkmagi]

nope

[dasva]

I thought there was a limit on the number of lamps for PTs less than 3? Like PT number+1 or something?

That was always the rumor. I was very unpleasantly suprised the first time. There is a decent sized window for same time though and if I do get more lamps than pt members it's almost always order. Which still sucks but better than trying to clip a few rooms away to get in the same time window

[Treize Kordero]

I believe there should be a video coming out today from the producer talking about the patch in some detail? Anyone hear anything about it?

[Trigun]

... The other post says that there will be some more information about the next version update in a live webcast which will happen on November 27 at 22:30 JST, with new information about monstrosity, battlefields, and other stuff.

I guess part of the monstrosity announcement is about that dragon quest, ffxiv and ffxi crossover, since you will be able to play as DQ's slime and ffxiv's spriggan bunny thing. Says event starts Dec. 11 so early date for next update?

I'm guessing the stream will be on that page? The blog.

Not on the blog itself but at the end of the post there's a link to the stream on niconico.
