Taj's site is just getting slammed, it loads if you try hard enough.

I'm still crossing my fingers for a RNG grip to use with Vulcan's Staff... Jalzahn's Ring looks ftw in Salvage.

all those items fail except 3-4 of them


reward item(hoping to god it hasent been found yet but seems unlikely seems made of fail)

Why does it seem unlikely that it hasn't been found yet, considering that there's very obviously a ton of items missing from the list?

My first though was that the final mission reward has not been found yet because I don't see amazing lvl 75 pieces that fit all jobs.

Then I started thinking about alternative rewards that wouldnt show up as new gear.

Could be...

AU citizenship. Make AU your home nation instead of renta room, free teleport usage, new sanction bonuses, ect.
Old gear: I would be happy with a choice of any 1 abj. from the royal treasury.
Or maybe it is just a huge pile of IS and gil.

Or you get a pat on the back and a hearty "thanks for saving the world yet again, here pick one of these three rings that are kind of crappy unless you are in assault".

That's just as good.

That would be a major letdown, and would indicate that they knowingly fucked with us on the glory crown. They know we want a real reward, so they tease us with a glory crown and make us think we're getting a nice headpiece reward then say "lolkidding, here's 500k"

I don't see SE opening the floodgates to RMT, or giving people tons of IS to be used on isnm/coins to make mass profits.... it would be great if they did give us a bunch of IS, because it would prolly make people do ISBCNM's more and bring down khroma price. I just don't see it happening though.

[NynJa]

with todays economy, 500k is a large sum of gil. I'd take 500k anyday lulz.

I hope they make the crown have hidden effects for each job that wears it. Personally I think that would be the best item they could add, given our current head choices.

lol... They wont give out a abjurations to people gg. That is just retarded.

[BRP]

I'd hate to be given a Glory Crown or some other visible as a mission reward. It would be something someone couldn't wear with a full set bonus or something they worked hard for and fits nicely in most situations: (Wzd hat+1). Those "Assault:" bonus rings would work out nicely I think.

I think we will be seeing smaller set bonuses in this update. Like Head+boots+earring being a whole set.

[Alistaire]

Watch the Breeder set be all jobs with any kind of pet. Then we'd get summoners walking around looking like they're in Adaman gear lol.

EDIT: DING! I claim page 4 for all adaman summoners and peppermasters muhahaha.

[Yutuyu]

Assault bonuses work in Salvage, Black Coffin Maelstrom Company, but not in Einherjar, right?

I seem to recall an interview before ToAU was released when the interviewer asked if Jeuno could ever be made your home nation. They said no, but hinted that it might be possible in the "new area". I think this is what's happening.

[Osede]

I may or may not be doing it this patch, because I'm lazy. But that doesn't mean other miners can't do it in my stead! I'll update the OP as stuff is posted.

Go here for new items.

Yes I know the job information is incorrect.

Discussion thread ist hier.

i'm like the turuya back ground.

[SephYuyX]

Set Bonus armor sucks, area specific only equipment sucks.
Just give us good pieces without any little gimmicks.

Enchantment armor is A OK though!
Not really.

they've even got AU nation ranks already! (assault rank) problem is, this turns the 'whitegate congestion' issue on its head, so I don't think it's very likely.

although I would totally switch as soon as I could if they do, since I'd walk in rank 9 already

[Septimus]

I hope they make the crown have hidden effects for each job that wears it. Personally I think that would be the best item they could add, given our current head choices.

Really now? Let me channel the dev team for a moment...

RDM: Hand-to-Hand Skill +3
THF: Staff Skill +3

Indeed at least some of those would not be on other heads we already have

Well, they did add an Aht Urhgan flag. Maybe they added 10 ranks worth of missions for AU citizens, too. At the end of which, you get your flag with Moghancement: Beseiged.
