Dev Tracker: Discussion

Do people really still bot it? As far as I know they are still banning heavy on that unless they stopped lol.

No idea, i was just making note of why someone botting wouldnt be too upset theyre not getting 100/hr opposed to 30/hr

[Ligray]

Holy shit new rme called Aoenic Weapons.

[Gokulo]

Oh wow

[Sechs]

I was wondering which Carrot on a Stick would SE have used to drive people into doing Reisenjima content.
Clearly they can't release gear that's better than HQ Abj gear (well, a couple of pieces, sure, but not too many).
We now have our answer, Aeonic weapons!
That's a really unexpected surprise. Pleasant one? We'll see. Wonder if this means they're going to adjust RME as well. I'm not really asking for RME to become >>>>> everything else again, but most RMEs suck so much that I think there's plenty of space for improvement without making the other "normal" weapons completely irrelevant.

What strikes me as the biggest surprise is:

* Completion of the aeonic weapons requires completion of a quest to be added in a subsequent update.

Wut?
Will this be content originally planned for november that they had to postpone... or something else?

[Kanriel]

If the quest is completed later that probably means we won't even know how good the weapons are until a later date, eh?

[Sechs]

Well yes, unless their stats are already in the dats of course.

[DirtyWattz]

And here I thought I would end this game comfortably in December. I should've known better.

I'm sure mythic owners will miss AM3 though. They may need to actually depend on better support to self SC as constantly.

[Kyreth]

I'm honestly curious as to what we're going to get that surpassing light/darkness for SC use. And will we get options to make our old RME's equivalent in usefulness?

Cosmic elucidation?

[Miroku_Asura]

Cosmic elucidation?

My thoughts exactly. Makes sense considering we're going to Tenzen's homeland (ish) and he's the only dude that can do it.

[DirtyWattz]

Hopefully they're actually potent or rather, we're against mobs where they matter. Events nowadays are way too easy where you nuke from afar or use BST with only being at risk of half a mobs tp moves. The times where people actually want to bring melee, you bring BLU, SAM, THF or DNC and they just die in seconds if everyone knows what they're doing.

So hopefully more fights like the old days. Kinda like how Behemoth Unity is done now.

[Tidis]

It'll be a quest related to completion of the RoV storyline but you'll only be able to pick one.

[Sechs]

So much wishful thinking here and on other forums as well
Dunno, makes quite obvious sense to me that these Aeonic items are the way SE wants to make player keep playing for a long time using the last new content that will be released (Reisenjima) and possibly even older content as well.

We'll see what happens, but if it's not Aeonic stuff, then what could they possibly offer with Reisenjima? Keeping that hard balance where new gear is interesting enough to make players interested in getting it, but at the same time not overall stronger than HQ abj gear?

[PSOfanatic]

Kinda shocked about new "REM" tier weapons. I guess COR will finally get a 3rd roll with a new gun! It's kind of strange though as content is ending in Nov, right? I don't really see the benefit of adding top tier weapons like this this late but I guess it's better late than never. Wish they showed what the other weapons looked like...Guess we'll have to wait and see!

[Gokulo]

With that logic there would be no point of adding anything now. It's just a new carrot to keep people occupied

[arus2001]

Not looking forward to the inevitable tiered NM system requiring 6+ people with the final NM only dropping 1-2 pieces for a weapon we'll probably need 1000 of that can't be traded.

The highest they ever went with this model was 75 (Empyrean 90 stage). I bet the currencies for these ultimate ultimate weapons will be sellable like everything else. It also probably doesn't exist in game yet.

Alternatively, they'll be super easy to get as a big "fuck you" to everyone who hated the beginning of Adoulin.

You don't full time HQ abju gear, it would be easy for them to create awesome gear to goes in different set than HQ abju

[Sechs]

Some examples? I want to understand better what you're thinking of

[Toth]

Wow, that was surprising. The new armor looks incredible as well. New AF?
