Dev Tracker: Discussion

yeah but you know that was the anticipation. If it's on part with RME, just farm RME instead since way easier yeah? Where's the incentive other than epeen? So as indeed a final weapon (last introduced), it's kind of baffling unless the new SC are just amazing

I bet the skill lv 269 version of RME needs escha NM clear to upgrade as well. If you can't clear escha NM, then RME would not be on par with A.weapon due to lower skills. This makes sense though, the best weapon in this game needs the hardest content clears, instead of soloing 5+ year old content for 3 weeks.

3 stone types. Ru'Aun T2 and Reisen T2 each have 1 of every weapon type. Ru'Aun T2 has JSE weapons. Maybe those will be used for rereforged RMEs.

[Kincard]

The reasoning they gave for the underwhelming Job Master Gift is pretty different than the one the English Community Rep gave, so I'll give the translated JP one for that one.

Maybe they are talking about the finishing moves granted?

Yeah, that's what I meant, sorry. I'll edit it for clarity.

That thing about RME items being auctionable is interesting...which items specifically do they mean?

[arus2001]

Would assume stuff like Sobek Skins and such.

Sure hope they mean everything.
Coins, Abyssea 80/85/90 mats, Heavy Metal Place, Rift-mats, Alexandrite, HP Bayld etc

Dont think they'd do away with the EX stuff. I think they mean Heavy Metals and Rift Cinder/Boulder

While possible, those items are already sendable between characters on the same account. I figure it's more about the items that can currently be bazaared, but not sent, like Dynamis currencies or Alex. Seems like a move to consolidate the supply/market, making me wonder if it's a test to see if other adjustments need to be made for supply to be as intended.

lol @ SE logic
"We thought people might start asking for only Job Masters in their party, so we went ahead and made it visibly apparent to everyone if you are a Job Master or not"

Considering being a job master does very little compared to 1200, they're heading off people asking for job masters only at all.

[Byrthnoth]

What? You get at least an extra 28 Acc or MAcc between 1200 and 2100 on your job. That's (potentially) very important.

Why not? They are used for Empy armor 109, there would be a market for those, would also make it easier (i.e. faster/less time consuming) to unlock empy WS, since last I checked the large number of coins/voiddust/etc available on the market isn't exactely overflowing and farming a 90 Empy from zero, even with the zero competition you have today, still requires more work than it should when it's "only" for unlocking a simple WS.

Not sure if that would be a "right" or "wrong" choice, I can find points to support both. I'm just saying I don't find it that impossible to happen in the end.

[Fwahm]

Making a 99 WoE is easier than farming a 90 Empy if you just want the weaponskill.

[Hoshiku]

I wonder how much smaller the gaes fete area will be now. This might potentially make it harder to grav kite and nuke whilst solo when trusts are down and out and it will certainly put a kink in our kirin strat of taking the adds down to the lower level.

Might not matter if next update means legendaries only.

[Tarage]

The thing is, SMN's 1200 gift is completely fucking useless. Where is the logic in a peak gift that literally does NOTHING.

I thought it was invent +1...

Yeah, it's almost like that post was just bullshitting us.

[NynJa]

How is it useless? I thought the 1200 gift was BP Delay II -5. Unless theres auged gear thats not showing up when I search it on ffxiah, the most you can get in BP recast II is -3 (Dalm+1), -2 (Espiritus), -1 (119 Relic ft), -5 (Seraphicaller).

[Prothescar]

It caps. You can't go below 30s BP timer.

60s (base) - 15s (BP-) - 5s (Seraphicaller) - 5s (100JP gift) - 3s (JSE cape or JSE cape + Glyphic pigaches) - 2s (Glyphic doublet) = 30s. At most it saves 1 slot of inventory space if you don't have 3s on cape.

BST one was pretty worthless too tho.
