Changes Scheduled for the March Version Update (03/04/2008)

[Delekii]

This is the first update after the release of a new expansion right? I feel like I'm missing out on a big joke or something. So far there has literally been not one thing that if SE weren't fucking retarded, they could have released in a tiny fuck off placation patch, rather than being announced as actual content...

Where are the job updates from the fan fest? Where are the BLU spells that were coming in the next update? Where are the fixes to fucking WoTG? These Beastman strongholds better be pretty good...

/dance fills me with rage after leveling DNC to 75. They could've at least used different animations.

Sol/Luna cap thing is pretty cool, except I don't know anyone to recruit anymore.

Just wait for your relic dances >.> <.<

Hahahahaha relic for a new job, good one.

Goes side by side next to the Relic Jugpet, relic automaton, and relic song that Bards sing right?

[Spoony Bob]

I never see more than 5 people in the colosseum at a time anymore... Does anyone even still do pankration? I mean... after it died down for a little bit I ran a few monsters through getting the beastmen helmets for looks but after that?

Either way, I'm greatly looking forward to how much the emperor band ends up giving. Curious to what the sol and luna caps end up doing though.

Edit: actually, did I just miss what the caps do? Feel like I'm the only one that's clueless as to what they do.

[Apelila]

But...but....WHERE ARE THE CHEESE SANDWICHES?

Also: Dear SE, please let us create mules using gold world passes for your items. You get money, I get an airship. Love and kisses, me.

Edit: I think this picture describes these updates:

This has to be just one gigantic practical joke... I am sure of it.

[Kaisha]

Makes me wish Gold World Pass lasted longer than a year.....or more opportunities for rewards.

All I got was a dinky Mandy Hat at 40 days, Timepiece at 100, and Airship all the way over at 365 days.

Feeling a little shafted now with them introducing new stuff long after the fact. ;/
(not in the mood to pay $5 for base FFXI, make a toon with gold pass, then deactivate/reactivate on the reward days)

Looks like my Mimic pet gets the boot, as I can't really say no to a Chariot.....

/dance1-4 is a hilarious slap to the face for DNCs, although I will enjoy them on PUP as that's the only other job I felt that could have used it given its 'entertainer' (of lolling) description.

Something tells me Emperor Band is going to cost a shitload of CP but have triple the benefit over an Empress.
(that would be an indirect way to make players XP in RoZ areas....well, unless people just ignored it and kept with Empress)

[Jkun]

YES OH MY GOD THE WHOLE REASON I LEVELLED PUP.

and technically /DNC, but I couldn't perform shows in Whitegate without TP unless it was a jig, ...UNTIL NOW!

/orgasm

[Acturus]

Hell yeah! Wyvern emotes part II!

[spooky]

Weak.

[Hanyoko]

Just what we need... Wyverns and puppets breaking into a Thriller dance...

I was excited to see a chariot in the picture. Then i saw it was for pankration.

If I remember reading right the 'eggs' for the next event are not in the dats right? If thats the case probabaly a 10th/11th update as I doubt they will risk destroying a weekend with bugs.

[Isiolia]

Emperor band better rock...hard. Like, Dragonforce hard.

Wonder why they still say conquest points though. Would make some sense to make those rings Sanction obtainable/rechargable.


Hopefully the reason we haven't seen any really good stuff is because it's still in testing, and they only feel confident showing us the stuff that's so trivial that they're sure it can be added as-is.

[Max™]

As a taru, I am both pleased, and enraged that I'm not the only one who will be able to indulge their dancing feet anymore.

Least taru dancing animations will rule.

Yeah, hopefully.
Alternativly SE could be setting the bar for the weakest update in history.

[Septimus]

They say you can only wear one of those rings at a time... I could swear you couldn't even own more then one at a time.

I noticed that as well. It would be fairly hot if you could have all three for XP-bonus-a-go-go.

Don't you have BLM updates to bitch about?

Preferably somewhere else.

[parasoldude]

This emperor band sounds really good.

I have over 250,000 conquest points that i just never used.

Those rings are the only unique bonus for Signet areas that players really care about.

I hope that the "good stuff" isn't still in testing. This update is freaking two months late as it is.

It feels more like the WotG release teasers that they assaulted us with for months.
