You have confirmation anywhere the update is actually happening? As far as I can tell the servers just crashed.

[vm0d]

Clearly! but why should we wait for real update maintenance!

[Kanriel]

Well, it's SE, I wouldn't get my hopes up. But I sure as hell hope they go 'Let's do it!' Would be the best "I'm sorry the servers went down." they could do.

This thread will make way more sense AT the time listed below!

Patch Notes.

[Rehn]

Refractive Crystals made now be purchased from the following NPCs.

Urbiolaine in Southern San d’Oria (G-10) / Igsli in Bastok Markets (E-11) / Teldro-Kesdrodo and Yonolala in Windurst Woods (J-10) / Nunaarl Bthtrogg in Western Adoulin (H-11)

Engraving arcane glyptics requires bayld and new items known as refractive crystals. Players may trade a refractive crystal together with a job-specific cape to confirm the cape’s attributes pre- and post-engraving in addition to having the cape engraved. Players may revert the cape to its pre-engraving state, but the refractive crystal is consumed upon confirming the trade.

Dang, so all we need is the cape and we're golden.

[dasva]

So using accolades and balyd to augment capes? Nice

[fattucus]

Switching between the job point and gifts categories in the Job Point submenu and then canceling will cause the client to crash.

sounds like fun

[Ramzii]

kinda wish the crystals were from incursion so it'd be relevant again

[Ophannus]

Pretty much no point in doing incursion now unless you really want the xbow/harness/belt/earring.

[dasva]

Well they are upping droprates and pimper cp capes. Also saw they are boosting the augments for alluvion skirmish items... time to reevaluate some of them it seems. Wonder if flute will go to +4 now.and letting you target stones you go for
