Triple Campaign Spring Frenzy! (04/02/2015)

Starting today, Thursday April 2, we will be kicking off these three, exciting campaigns!

Campaign Period
Thursday, April 2, 2015 at 1:00 a.m. (PDT) to Thursday, April 16, 2015 at 1:00 a.m.

Double Capacity & Experience Point Campaign
Earn double the normal amount of capacity points and experience points from defeating monsters. What's more, this campaign will also apply to experience gained in Monstrosity.

Abyssea Campaign
A blue treasure chest has been placed near the "Horst" NPC in Port Jeuno (H-8).
Open the chest to receive one of the following prizes.
- Atma (eleven varieties)
- Lunar Abyssite (one piece)
- 100,000 Cruor
* Note: You may only accept a prize once.

Not only that, upon entering Abyssea, Pearlescent, Azure, Golden, and Silvery Visitant Lights will have their starting light values set to 100.

Skirmish Frenzy Campaign
During this campaign, the drop rate for trigger items in colonization and lair reives has been doubled. We didn't stop there. Raising the rank of personal treasure coffers has been made much easier. The higher your personal treasure coffer rank, the easier it will be to obtain high-quality stones as well as translurry/transmelange.

Yesssssssssssssss Koru-moru. Had hoped they would do the kupon campaign where it drops from BCNMs for AF3.

[vivbiibasjiu]

Grekumah:

Previously we mentioned that we have plans in the works to add a second floor to your Mog Houses, and to coincide with this we're looking into making it so you can have two Mog Safes. This means that not only will you be able to store more items, but you'll have plenty more room to add even more furnishings.

I remember they said something about Mog houses was in the works but nothing as specific as a second floor. Still would prefer havine furnishings go in their own space so we could decorate freely but this will be nice i spose.

[Hitou]

Extra storage will be nice but I'm not looking forward to even longer loading times for inventories...

[Sechs]

If it affects only zoning into MH (I seriously doubt) I'm fine with that.

[fantasticdan]

It should effect zoning anywhere, unless they block you from seeing this extra mog safe outside of MH/garden.

[Fwahm]

What they should do, is prioritize inventory loading. Have the game load inventory/wardrobe > satchel/sack > safe/locker.

[Sechs]

It should effect zoning anywhere, unless they block you from seeing this extra mog safe outside of MH/garden.

Which is why I said "I seriously doubt".
But then again there has to be a difference somewhere. If there weren't why would they be adding a new repository accessible only from MH and not everywhere, as they've been doing the past few years?
Maybe only part of that data (name, icon? something else?) is loaded for this new repository so that it does increase loading time, but less than it would do otherwise?

What they should've done is dynamic loading with a DYNAMIC WARDROBE2.
Make wardrobe job specific and make so you can only put job specific gear in there.
Only the one for your current job gets loaded up.
That way you would have 80 job specific slots for each job. Welcome to virtually infinite space in FFXI everyone!
But they said it would be too complicated to develop, sadly.

[Trumpy]

From the Post I linked to it sounds like Mog Wardrobe like features increase server load much more than Mog Safe types. So they must be different somehow on server load.

New JP interview, but most of it seems to be recapping info from the QA summary.

I'm working on translating this and about half done so far, I'll put it in a separate thread.

[Suteru]

Looks like they are finally adding RUN and GEO Phantom Rolls, as well as making some assaults easier to do lowman/solo?

[Seha]

Omg new rolls, I can barely believe it!

[Foldypaws]

Do they say what the rolls will be?

(My money is on Meva for RUN, no idea for GEO)

[Suteru]

Nope.

You will be happy to hear that we’ll be introducing new Phantom Rolls for geomancer and rune fencer in the May version update. :D

That's it. Maybe Magic Damage+ for GEO?

[Damane]

Do they say what the rolls will be?

(My money is on Meva for RUN, no idea for GEO)

yeah run is prolly gonna be m.eva +, hopefully as stronger or stronger then attunement is.
geo is a tough whats it gonna be. whats there left magic wise to go for? maybe geo will get a magic burst+ roll that bypasses the cap, would work pretty well if you have a mage pt in the backlines! wuzzah

[Sechs]

They need to give cor a 10mins JA that allows them to do a third roll!
