Edit: Larsa is a whm and banner is also introducing Chain-Thundaga, so I imagine once a few more events come out, we'll have the whole chain element line soon.
Chain Waterga is likely next in the FFX event. I hope Yuna gets a cool new toy, maybe even a second Burst.... and Seymour too maybe?

Roaming Warrior refresh
You can now refresh the RW list before entering the battle
Follower removal
You can now remove followers from the friend list menu
Misc: Equipment selling screen will be enhanced for better visibility of items you're selling.
With that in mind, how far behind are we from JP in regards to QoL updates?
Could we be getting this sooner than anticipated?

It'll probably limit you to so many refreshes per day.
Thank fucking god. I want those QoL updates in Global NOW!
Is there a necessity for a 300+ MND Ramza? Or is 200+ enough?
you'd really only stack mind gear when setting him up as a RW so whoever uses it gets an extra 1-2 seconds of haste. for native shout you should be able to keep it up full time under most circumstances so it shouldn't be an issue.
Seems like 6* crystals will start dropping soon from somewhere in JP. It's either from U++ or a new daily tier. The icon is the green orb thing you see right before you get the actual crystal in the result screen and there's also another crystal looking drop... 7* maybe? Or something else entirely, I don't know.
Could it be Dark Matter replacing the Giant Armor/Weapon upgrade mats?
I know Dark Matter itself has a different icon, like Geater Adamantite and Scarletite have different icons but the same color of treasure chest icon. The icon in question is a white-ish tri point crystal correct? Could that be the "drop icon" for Dark Matter like 6* crystals have the green orb but different individual icons for the separate crystals?
I guess it could but I don't think that's gonna be the case because you can easily get Dark Matters from the shop anyway. Probably something new.
I'm sitting wondering why my guys are only doing 1/2 damage and why I ran out of hones...
Turns out I left everyone in the back row.
