Feb. 18 2015 Version Update!

[Trumpy]

I thought Koru has been available twice, although the second time was almost immediately after the first time via some campaign.

So any weapons dropping in new Alluvian skirmish, cause I still think people were misreading the preview notes for that?

[Fwahm]

Assuming they give the VI spells to SCH.

No, though you can buy them for 3 wings. Predicted the stone drops correctly, Leaf stones are a common drop, Dusk stones are a rare drop, and Snow are only from Rala and Cirdas. Wish they'd update Obsidian Fragment exchanges to include these stones and give them some viable costs. No more 40k frags for a single +2 nonsense.

That's kinda cool for targeting stones especially since you can target slit dim etc too

15 Second Sic/Ready recast is sweet...Nice stuff.

It is sweet! Though it's not as sweet as I thought...it appears I need to have Desultor Tassets equipped at the split second I receive a Ready charge for the -5 recast to take effect. That is, if I equip Desultor Tassets and then Ready 3 times, then take them off, I've been getting my first charge back after 15 seconds, but the following two take 20 each (unless I have the pants on the moment I get the charge). I don't know if it was always like this, as I just got the pants, but it's really annoying.

But the real deal this update is pet skillchains! Check this out:

Swooping Frenzy -> Primal Rend is Gravitation
Cloudsplitter -> Swooping Frenzy is Light!

And now that pet TP matters for damage, Swooping Frenzy can hit for almost 4k! If anyone finds more out about pet skillchains/magic bursts, do share! I'm testing more right now.

That augment thing sounds like a bug. I'd report it. Anyways that makes swooping fusion. Might have other elements too

[Falaras]

I just got a Cornflower Cape from the new augmenting system with Blue Magic Skill +6, I'm not sure whether the wiki is wrong in stating that it can only aug 7-10 or whether the new system has the possibility of giving lower augments.

rly? I just figured it was one of those "working as intended" giant FU's from SE. Charmer's Merlin could actually let you use Ready every 10 seconds, but I think you'd have the same issue - you'd need the axe equipped at the moment the charge comes in.

Well that sounds rather buggy to me... I mean how in the world would you change to it for just when you are about to get the charge? The way it is now is kinda useless unless you full time which lol at full timing lvl 75 era equipment in ilvl slots

Side note: refractive crystals are selling for 450-500k each right now <.< do people not realize how easy they are to get? Or how many rolls it will likely take to get great augments?

Someone's gotta pay the Idiot Tax for a bit. They'll crash eventually.

[Ophannus]

I was told to ignore leaks and just balance other elements and then power through the leaked element at the end

Fire-14 Ice11 Wind49 Earth-6 Thunder-2 Water52 Light18 Dark19
Fire00 Ice00 Wind50 Earth00 Thunder00 Water50 Light20 Dark20

I was only 2 off from each target and it didnt sparkle and say formed. Why?

[dasva]

Bad luck? Did you try ending it?

[Ophannus]

Wont i lose my mats if i end and its not correct?

[Ophannus]

Like 4x now i got them all within 3 and no dice.

Is it because ice was super high from the leak?

[dasva]

You never lose your mats unless you succeed. Always end it if you are close you probably would've succeeded all of those

[Ophannus]

Something is up, 5x now i got all elements withing 2-3 and no "synergy image is formed press end". Maybe it needs to be within 1-2?

I succeeded with gorget and obi but belt is being a bitch. I never experienced this trouble before.

[dasva]

Hit end!

[Ophannus]

It worked but its the first time in all my years synergizing that upon getting within 2-3 for each element it didnt spark and say "end synergy to retrieve your item" why is that? The gorget and obi did but not the belt. Fucking weird

[dasva]

So I looked thru the entire cooking list and didn't see the new jugs so guess they are synergy onry

Possibly just a glitch in the message. You are close enough just do eet. Honestly I've never even looked for the message so I couldn't tell you if I have not seen it before
