    Merit camps since the last update?

    I remember seeing something in the last update notes about adjusting monster placement in Aht Urghan. I've been levelling lower-level jobs so I haven't merited since the update. Can anyone fill me in on what changed? Any new camps added or old ones ruined?

    Camps got worse IMO, it's fucking hard to continue a chain if you have to fight Wivre. If there's only 1 party at your camp, you can do find with just colibri and not ever lose chain, but if there's another party, you're gonna get seriously cockblocked. Those camps could previously support 1 slow party and 1 fast party keeping chain, but after the update anything more than 1 fast party and you're SoL.

    I read that too but I just thought they moved things around, haven't xped since the update. Wow that sucks... yeah, I always pulled bugards as well as colibri since they keep chain just as well with a good party. I heard those new mobs are hard to kill

    those wivre mob has ability "boiling blood" or something like that, equivalent to berserk, it dies pretty fast when u ws @that point.

    my sam/rng did 1,7k sidewinder to it after boiling blood.

    Of course, there is that AoE high attack down that he also spam too.

    I never really liked colibri camp, and they didn't fuck the Tandjana Mamool camp, so I honestly don't really care.
