Nyzul Isle Initial Findings

[Lordwafik]

Nobody knows yet. Rumoured latents, my friend and I had a discussion last night about them, he doesn't beleive that the dancing dagger and vorpal blade give those weaponskills, they're just named after previous FF weapons, and when I looked at them, he was correct.

Dancing Dagger - FF4
Swordbreaker - FF6

etc

I have a feeling they're nostalgaic at most >_> who knows, maybe some nice hiddens on them, after all they are lvl100+ memory wipe.

I wonder if that deletion+key item thing is instant.. I don't want to lose my save =( fuck that shit

It'll probably have you confirm.

[Grif]

Idk to me it sounds like they make you delete your memory so you cant just get random people the weapons on your save. Atleast i hope it lets every member get the key item but this is SE so looks like one person only.

[Judai]

On the JP site, if I'm reading it right, it looks like they got a ??? Box off a Behemoth? Has anyone else gotten that?

[Slott]

nope, we haven't.

[Wizerd]

It'll probably have you confirm.

Scratch what I said.

Apparently, if you even enter floor 100, your memory gets erased. You still fight a boss, and it can still drop a head piece. More details later when my friend is finished reading some other JP site. >_>

I don't get how the weapon thing works yet.

[Stanislaw]

Said friend posting.

Here's a screeny from the JP person who posted the original information about floor 100.

I need to read his blog a bit more carefully in order to determine just exactly what the hell was SE thinking when they created this...

[divisortheory]

They mentioned a while back they're planning to introduce ToAU items equivalent to relics. I wonder if this is going to be it, and perhaps this is only the first stage.

[Tyche]

I think were gonna stop at 95 and farm 20-80 before going onto 100. So, it's up to someone else to figure out what the hell happens...

[Stanislaw]

Here's a translation of the blog post:

■■　Nyzul Assault Floor 100　■■

I apologize for the late update, but we finally managed to go just last night ('Д')

And this Blog has reached its two-year anniversary too!
Not sure it was because of the anniversary or not, but I got 2000 hits yesterday (　＾ω＾)

I will continue to post these shitty information from now on as well.＼(＾o＾)／


<Attempt No. 25> Starting from Floor 96

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...w/e7c16c4e.jpg

(The above screenshot shows us that he has 2059 tokens and has Floor 95 data recorded)

Summary:

Floor 96 → [Objective] Eliminate all enemies. Total time spent so far: 4 minutes.
Floor 97 → [Objective] Light all lamps (at the same time + avoid gears). The floor had tons of undead and 10 gears linked. ＿|￣|○ Total time spent so far: 13 minutes.
Floor 98 → [Objective] Eliminate specified enemies. Everyone except the WHM and BRD were weakened. Had to kill 4 Qiqirns. Total time spent so far: 18 minutes.
Floor 99 → [Objective] Eliminate all enemies. Simugh showed up here... had tons of HP... Total time spent so far: 25 minutes.
Floor 100 → [Objective] Eliminate enemy leader. Thank god it was Khimaira. Killed it asap in a minute and a half and finish!!


With some consideration on the info we gathered so far, our group decided that if we had less than 7 minutes before entering Floor 100, we should give up.

We entered, and the first "Eliminated all enemies" went as smooth as usual, but the next floor involved lamps + too many gears + undead (which didn't sleep, of course), and... ugh...

Not only that, we ran into even more gears and had the "No White Magic" and "Longer Casting Time" pathos inflicted upon us... with no healing in sight, 4 people dead already.

Thankfully, we managed to reraise asap, and with some luck managed to get ourselves in position to press the lamps at the same time. Pressed all five lamps at the same time (with everyone at red health) and had the other person standing by at the exit, and managed to warp to the next floor rather fast.

And although they say to press the lamps at the same time, it seems that you don't really have to time it exactly. One person managed to light two different lamps and we were fine.

But still, with four people weakened, we were honestly considering giving up. (;＾ω＾)

Floor 98 involved killing Qiqirns while weakened, and managed to advance to the next floor with 18 minutes spent on the run so far.

Floor 99 objectives... Eliminate all enemies.

Oh god, die SE die.

Not only that, Simurgh was there. We tried to kill Simurgh with just us front line jobs, but it was actually pretty difficult, since with NIN and DRK, we were doing slashing damage. There were also a lot of misc enemies there too, and although our RDM and BLM killed them off, we only had 5 minutes remaining.

Honestly, it was a hard decision to make...

But we weren't even allowed much time to think. 5 minutes and 20 seconds left.

Not only that, the person at the Rune of Transwer was telling us that there was this comment saying that "Do you want to reset your records?" or something. We asked what he meant, and he said:

"It seems that in order to go to the next level, we have to reset our memories!"

...Are you serious? ('A`)

I sincerely regret it now that I boasted on the message boards on how I'll be the first one to reach Floor 100.

My members might even blame me for it. "It's because you were too hasty, we lost!" (;＾ω＾) Oh man, what shall I do...

And all this while time was ticking away. My static was like, "Let's go!" and "Let's kick the boss's ass!" and stuff, so onwards we go!!!! WRYYYYYYY!!!

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...w/7c962a72.jpg

(Translation of above screenshot:
C - Let's go.
You receive a Temporary Item! (not sure which one)
M - kk
M starts casting Mage's Ballad on M.
T- okw
Your memory on the disc has been reset!
Time remaining: 5 minutes (Earth time)

Second and third screenshot involves highlighting the bold part of the message)

GONE! ＼(＾o＾)／

NO WAY TO GO BACK! ; ;

My memory has been reset! RESET! IS IT KAZUI'S FAULT!!! (note: I have no idea who he's referring to)

Dammit, what will I do if it's Cerb or Hydra. ; ;

We still need time to exit and to lot, so we only have like 4 minutes.........

......never mind, it's Khimaira. (　＾ω＾)

I'll beat you to a pulp, Khimaira! (#゜Д゜)

A minute and a half later...

Floor 100 Drop

Monk Weapon and Askar head!!!

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...islaw/4_fd.jpg

(Translation of above screenshot: Basically invovles congratulating each other and at the end, getting 1501 tokens, and the person obtaining a key item. Translates to something like "Key of Luminescence". Can someone confirm which key item this is exactly?)

Hurray on clearing the 100th Floor! (＾Д＾)

{Good job!}{everyone}

So we managed to clear all 100 floors, but in exchange:

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...islaw/5_fd.jpg

(Translation of above screenshot: The underlined message basically confirms that he lost his entire saved floor data)

So it seems that my saved data up to Floor 95 has indeed be erased...

Yesterday several people in my static had Dynamis, so if we have time tonight, we'll see if this key item has gives us any special privileges.

As for the weapon we got... the person who got it quotes as saying:

"Bah, I'm too lazy to test this wwwwwww Let's wait until we have more info wwwwwwww"

So he says. (　＾ω＾)…

He did a quick check, though.

No noticeable damage bonus.
WS was normal, in fact, pretty weak.
Destroyers are 10 times stronger than this.
No status changes too.

That's all we know.









And there you have it.

There's also another blog entry after this by the said person to check to see if the key item did anything, such as, grant entry to any floor of their choosing, or they don't need to spend tokens to enter a floor, or some wild theory like not having to pay IS to use Ruinic portals anymore, but...

They were all proven false.

The people in 2ch think it's like a trophy key item, much like the one you get in Dynamis-Xarcabard.

GG SE, GG.

[Tyche]

Yeah, fuck that shit, hitting floor 95 and farm to our heart's desire.

[aurik]

Yeah, fuck that shit, hitting floor 80 and farm to our heart's desire.

fixed

[Julian]

we're already on 86

fuck yeah can finally go back and farm stuff now, can't wait to go back to doing regular assaults

[aznmajiktaru]

same lol beat 80, 100 can suck a nut till se decides to tell us wtf they do, if anything at all lol.

[Sidra]

Just an idea: Assuming there is some value to these weapons (I'd imagine there will be eventually), if you go with a static group, have 1 person stop at 80 so that you can farm the other floors whenever you want.

With that person saving 80 and never going above it, start over with someone else (who would have an assload of tokens by that point) and have them save floors working to 100 again. Chances are in order to get someone to 80, you needed to go back and farm tokens anyway so someone else in the group probably has higher access than 1.

Anyway, with 1 person never going past 80 and a rotating system of the others going to 100, you'd retain the ability to farm whenever you want as well as a system which farms the weapons. And it certainly is a Relic-esque time sink, as after all that time you only get 1 weapon out of all 12? of them.

was I the only one who enjoyed that jp's sense of humor?

Pretty sure its 1/18 for one for ea job ._. and yea if u get 1 weapon and its actually a 1st stage weapon SE just traded having a shitload of money or ppl to farm dynamis for you for a while to pure time and effort by a group of 6 ppl

[Lordwafik]

Random weapon drop after 100 floors of lamps ftl

[Sylvrdragon]

I have a stupid theory on these weapons...

Maybe they let you skip a step in upgrading a relic (more likely a specific step, like 1st stage or 2nd).
