    Probably going to be a very slim update in terms of new items. We know we are getting the Autumn Tree from the Login Campaign, as well as a new Food (Turkey with rolanberry sauce) also in the Login Campaign. This is probably the "long name" of the item, and itll actually be something shorter. Matsui mentioned this quote in the update teaser post:
    If your favorite hobby is eating, then you’ll have something to look forward to in Vana’diel, as we’ve got a special new seasonal food item coming that may seem familiar to our North American players.
    Other than those two things, I am doubtful of anything else new. Maybe something for the Halloween event, but we will see.

    SE's usual MO is to buff them to ridiculous levels for a few months then nerf them when they realize that they way way way overdid it.

    Also, 21% WS damage boost on top of Shining One is just stupid.

    It's going to be the fastest emergency maintenance in the history of the game lol. Not even a clue how broken they just made H2H but I already know it's way over what it should be.

    I wonder how long it will take them to remember that Karambit is a thing that exists.

    Though to be fair nobody has ever actually made one.

    I made the one just below it because well, using Asuran Fists on THF was something I always wanted to do back in 200X when I started playing lol. Also, super over-broke H2H I guess? I don't have an account anymore but that'd be fun to see... I'd love to bust out the Ol SATA WS on some h2h while its OP, shame.

    Nothing seems to be overly broken at first glance (surprisingly)

    Just SS and AF brought up to usable status everything else minor upgrade

    Sounds like they made fTP gorgets/belts work for all those WSs. I don't remember how many they already worked for, but that's not an insignificant boost to Asuran Fists, Ascetic's Fury, Stringing Pummel, etc.

    I have Karambit, since I did MNK and PUP to Master last CP campaign. /shrug

    Raging Fists is sounding like it's a strong option for WAR (at least) using them, at least during SPs, since they can offset the lack of Martial Arts with the extra TP from crits.

    With Karambit WAR can also use Asuran Fists. Should put out some spicy numbers for them.

    480 deeds of heroism for Monberaux I wonder what's so special about him?

    Only thing they've said is he'll be like a chemist in FFT. Don't know if that means he will literally use remedies and potions (renamed ability mimicking them) Or he'll just be a more -na focused WHM. No idea and it could change by the time we can get him anyway. It's 6 months away.

    I remember there was one random encounter in Ch.4 I think maybe on Germanais Peak or something, where you'd fight 8 Chemists. They all had magic guns and would chuck Elixirs at eachother and Phoenix Downs. So fucking annoying (but not as bad as fighting 8 Calculators, where the AI always used Level/Height/CT X Arise on their fallen comrades, and Level/Height/CT X Flares on you)
