Update Details (6/9/2008)

[Starr]

Uh does this mean you can just pull the boss in einherjar now if mobs are clear or you sacrifice someone?

[Indalecia]

WHERE THE FUCK IS MY NIRVANA?!

[LordBane]

BG Server congestion! QQ

[Attila]

anyone else fucking ecstatic that ixion is an nm and not smn?

No, I wouldn't mind them getting something new, and I don't even play the job.

[Katlan]

wait....

Did they do a pre-update about Nyzel weapons and showing them off.. and not include them in the update [or did I just pass over it]???

edit: taking 5 minutes to post stuff is awsome. defensive measures where?

[layoneil]

@ Tajin: Confused about that too, that would actually make them harder to mass-kill if you have to pull each one unless you have someone speed pulling them. Guess strats for some mob sets will change.

speed pulling should be a lot easier for 2-3 BRDs than mass sleeping.

Still gotta defeat every monster in the zone to pop the Chest. But you could do that before update, though.

[Gwynplaine]

Nice changes, but words are superficial. Waiting to see what kind of juicy gear, items, or other things are in the update.

Oh, and go ahead and be an HNM Ixion you self important bastard. I didn't want to summon you anyway.

i guess but less ichor for you since its based on number of mobs killed in the chamber

[terranova]

Edit: semi double post

[SamanosukeShiva]

lets begin the IXION pop place speculation...


begin!

[Toth]

There is no excuse if DNC and SCH do not have category 1 merits after this update. Seriously. The ToAU jobs had them after 3 months.

[Draggy]

i am assuming the relics will just be in somewhere with new quests / items

but i am sad at no Scholar merits i was hoping we would get them today

[Therin]

Uh does this mean you can just pull the boss in einherjar now if mobs are clear or you sacrifice someone?

Yes, but you'd still need all of the mobs clear to pop the Armoury Crate.

[Not Kuno]

wth, there is nothing on the pol site or Pol itself....are u just grouping previous notes from their site and putting it altogether?

Is this a translation? Can we have a link or something?

It's just a translation of the JP page.

I'm dissapointed in everyone who thought I ran the update in a translator. I'm just that awesome. 8)

[Shinsei]

The resistance of the following Notorious Monsters to the black magic spells "Sleep," "Gravity," and "Bind" have been adjusted:
Behemoth / King Behemoth / Fafnir / Nidhogg / Capricious Cassie

Please tell me this means they're immune now... time to go gank some 1% fafhoggs.

god i hope so............

[Astrojack]

Einherjar sounds harder now since a group of mobs won't all link at once. Going to need to run around the whole chamber while avoiding aggro from other mobs and the boss. Was nice having all the mobs grouped together and pick them off by each alliance.

[umisame]

Great!, i was going to come back to ffxi but now that i see that ixion is a NM ...
SE is a fucking shit.

Typed it up in the developer's room in PoL then eh?

[Kkel]

Remember, the "Nyzul Weapon" information was released as a "Life in Vana'Diel" segment (The Myriad Arms of Balrahn). They never specifically stated they'd be coming in this update.
