2.1 Patch Notes

[Obsidian]

We use two BLMs and two PLDs in Turn 2 and didn't have LB3 to use on ADS, we were still a quarter of a bar short when it was dead. It filled noticeably slower.

[Raldo]

Now that you mention that, I realize that as a BRD I'm not paying one bit of attention as to which of the LBs was actually used; I merely noticed that someone was using a LB, but I haven't the foggiest as to which it was. That said, for Turn-2 we used WAR PLD WHM SCH BLM MNK BRD BRD, so BRD was our only stacked job; it may have been enough to get us to 3-bar.

[Drai]

Tried CT yesterday with a few FC members, both other pt's had 4x BLM for DPS, and they spent the whole time trying to convince our pt leader to vote kick me and replace members until they got a ranged DPS.

Is there something I'm not getting? Like are BLM just so much better than every DPS in CT? Or is this what i'm going to have to deal with because SE decided we can't use 24 of our own members to run this?

I'm the same as PLD so sometimes I use our LB for shits and giggles and to not feel left out!

CT is mighty frustrating when your group ends up carrying 16 other people, but it's simple enough that it's not that bad.

I got the Armor of Light (tank body), so it was worth sitting through all the KB wipes before we finally beat the dungeon with like 10 min on the clock.

Last night my group had a ton of people leave after gear and not replenish, so we ended up really behind on the clock. Behemoth was at 3% and there was a minute on the clock, easily enough time but cutting it close.

Turns out Crystal Tower says 'Failed' and kicks everybody at the 30 second mark. It was utterly Heartbreaking.

[Spider-Dan]

Did they make an "adjustment" to the turn 2 rage mechanic?

[Rehn]

I haven't tried due to FATE req, but is it possible to SB ilvl70 stuff in crystal tower?

Ultima is our time to shine!

[Jem]

Ultima is our time to shine!

If it wasn't my half that used LB Turn 1 on the snake, I would totally use it to make sure we won the race!

[Moridam]

nope, you can still rage it for easy wins.

[SamanosukeShiva]

Did the lv49 FATE while waiting for CT FATE to spawn, and got a "Flamefang Choker" as gold FATE reward. Any ideas what it's for? it's one of the items listed in the 2.1 update.

speaking of fixes in the coil, you can't esuna the debuff from the crystal in turn 1 anymore

I've completed the CT and I honestly don't think ranged DPS are that much better in there as they need to dodge stuff just as much. Most likely morons, ignore them and try again.

[Taruranto]

Daily are just glorified Levequest for now. The game world is too small and lacks of danger to make these things exciting. Meh.

Asked this 2 pages ago, no response yet.

[Kaslo]

So um mog fight?

[Alistaire]

Just confirmed Haukke Manore HM spiritbonds ilvl 70 gear.

[Kyata]

Ran with 2BRD 2MNK 2PLD in turn4 and did NOT have LB1 ready for that rook

"When multiple characters are playing the same class/job in a party, the gauge for level 2 and level 3 limit breaks will now fill more slowly than before."

LB1 has been filling up normally from what I noticed.
