Dev Tracker: Discussion

[Seha]

OMG Mihli is available?! I don't need other players anymore *bff with Mihli*

[Ophannus]

HQ ark weapons maybe(yay new overpowered gk?). Hope the hq earrings if there any are more balanced for multiple jobs. Only Suppa was really for multiple jobs, bushin was just sam onry. Maybe some day they'll do hq promathia fight that drops upgraded Rajas satva and tamas rings lol

[Spira]

considering the fact that they started with Ark Angels, which were mission battlefields, i have hope. id rather they didnt go the whole pick one of X route to be honest.. but if they did i'd expect it to be more like Moonshade Earring with the augments. I definitely expect the ark weapons since they're there already. also hoping for bahamut really.

..about Trust, the current cap is being able to call 3 at a go. They might expand on it in future... It seems to be a solo play function..? you can also call a Fellow and have a pet out at the same time.. if i heard them right

Is Cait Sith still slated for the year 2525?

[Ophannus]

Wonder if they cherry picked from the list of popular npcs to fit one of each job role i.e pld war smn rng blm drg etc

Caith Sith will be release right before they turn the servers off.

[Spira]

someone went back in time and erased the plans for ever releasing cait sith from existence.

[Ophannus]

Cait sith went the way of bst pet th gear. It was never promised.

[Darkmagi]

Cait Sith had a video lol

[Ophannus]

Since the localization team is getting clever with quests named after pop culture references i.e Snakes on a Plain, I would want the Cait Sith avatar quest to be called "The Cait is a Lie". Would fit so good.

[Prothescar]

Any info on the JP post talking about magic weaponskill buffs?

[Kincard]

It's nothing other than "we know there's not a lot of stuff that Trueflight's good for, it's not just that but we're discussing whether or not to make sweeping changes to elemental WSs in general". The quoted post was talking about how Gastraphetes and Death Penalty are kinda screwed with AM not applying to their WS and Matsui responded with "AM from WS doesn't apply to WSs so we balanced around that etc" to which of course people went "wat, AM3 applies to plenty of mythic just fine". So basically another post from Matsui showing he doesn't actually play the game (or does such adjustments himself).

[Khajit]

He's only lv 70ish. Of course he doesn't have any experience with mythic weaponskills.

[Darkmagi]

My greatest fear in regards to people complaining about DP/gastra is them nerfing other mythics instead.

[Kincard]

Sometimes devs don't playtest the entirety of their own game because of time limitations and that I can understand, but not understanding basic mechanics of what they designed, not so much.

(Yes I know it was probably a different guy that designed that part of the game but that's kind of my point)

[dasva]

There needs to be a sweeping change to elemental ws in general lol. All this rediculous boosting to physical has done next to nothing for magical.

What name would be good for pet th gear lol? They litterally went back and said we didn't say that!

i seem to remember that historically, in the early days of FFXI (pre Zilart),the opposite was actually true. Elemental WS were far superior to physical
