Jan. 15 2015 Version Update

[Sechs]

Speaking of which, I'd love to see a detailed list of those changes

[sahearniitth]

Perhaps the "new RoE quest" blurb was partially a derp in translation. (Though we now have WSNM quests in RoE, so perhaps that?)
They also lowered the requirements on a bunch of RoEs for how many you need.

The update notes actually listed the following:

Records of Eminence has undergone the following additions and adjustments.
•New objectives have been added.
•The conditions for completing some objectives have been lowered.

Based on the language it was assumed that only new and adjusted RoE objectives were added (The WSNM objectives are actually from December I believe). However one of the previous posters implied there were new RoE Quests (or misspoke and was actually just referring to the Adoulin quests) which is what we were inquiring about.

And we've found new objectives so it's not that has to be a quest one . I forget all of them but there was a second tier added to a couple. Like harvesting and level sync II

[Fwahm]

What's the name of the song that plays in the last cutscene with Marget in the new Melvien quest? I can never remember its name.

the only ones ive noticed they lowered are colonization reives (and i think lair reives as well) from 5 to 2

[Trumpy]

Spoils (seals) is 3 seals now, I remember them being 5 seals. Am i smoking the crack here?

[Hitou]

Yeah the timed trial for seals is now 3 instead of 5. All Reives (besides WKR) are 2 now. Haven't noticed anything else.

[fattucus]

also unity chat is now 1 instead of 2...

[Celebrindor]

good, now I only have to see people say one thing in /u instead of two before disappearing to get their obligatory points.

[Sechs]

First Ingrid quest is pretty short, with no fight.
Instructions:

Spoiler: show

Get the Quest in Eastern Adoulin north of the square by the castle, from Rigobertine.
Run up to Oscairn, outside Peacekeepers.
Examine the Ergon Locus ??? in Yorcia Weald, in the grove of Numbing Blossoms, I-8.
Go back to Oscairn.
4k exp, 1k bayld.

Second quest starts from same NPC as the first.

Spoiler: show

Speak to Rigobertine.
Head to Yorcia Weald G-6, get a cutscene from Suspicious Roots.
Hit it for a BCNM with a Dullahan. Managed to duo with RDM & THF, although THF died at 40%. It's possible to keep Ingrid alive, but hate will go a bit wild. Gravity/Bind helps a lot!
Once you win, you get chucked out immediately. Check the Suspicious Roots for the last cutscene, and your rewards.
Rewards: 12k exp, 3k bayld, and an elixir tank.

Any info for the fight? Soloable with trusts? Suggestions? Jobs? Something? D:

[Hitou]

Not soloable with trusts, too much AoE spam and you have to keep ingrid alive. I duo'd it with WHM and MNK but I'd say any Melee and a real healer can do it. Mostly to keep ingrid alive and also to keep up with the damage spam. Called trusts on whm and had the mnk pull to keep trusts out of AoE range for the most part. I used moogle, koru, and I think joachim.

[sahearniitth]

You definitely want a mage for healing. Most trusts die when the mob starts to use the higher dmg aoes (which might be HP based). The BIGGEST annoyance BY FAR is the invincible spam which can result in long periods of no dmg till people figure out exactly how to take it down reliably. I seemed to have better luck by moving the mob so Ingrid was in the back after it did invincible (or moving it a little so she had to move back in range of the mob) in order to trigger her ws but nothing seemed to reliably work (other than the fact that she needs to WS it to break the shield).

[Sechs]

I tried solo with DNC with a 3step Grand Pas Climactic Flourish Rudra SC but of course it was nowhere near enough. Too much AoE damage, then the annoying physical damage immunity etc.
Killed it easily after a couple of people finally answered my shouts.

[Noonstar]

anyone know a good strat for King Uropygid?
doing with pld, brd, whm, thf, thf double darkness for the kill, divine caress to block poison
back to back draw in and stun'ga kills us thou
got blue !! ones, not sure how it happened, perhaps ws doing his TP move ?

Not only can one do the fight by oneself, it is completely soloable (no Trusts).

Next challenge!

[dasva]

Dang that's a lot of coalition ethers

[Protey]

yea, i bring a ton just in case.

[Ophannus]

Do physical blu spells circumvent shield block? Maybe blu can kill with delta thrust/heavy strike rotations and lunge his nukes?

[dasva]

Well physical blu spells don't circumvent real shield blocks nor pdt moves/traits like the invincible he does. But iirc mobs or at least old ones or ones without shields didn't actually block but were given a ghetto gaurd
