Summit Q&A Highlights/Exciting things in the next update

[Spira]

Since they actually got to take like a screenshot of the weapons + stats for Kenkonken, we should soon be able to see the same for COR, DRG, WHM, THF and RDM...

The pattern seems to be to enhance 2 stats that the job depends on.. and then Aftermath: effects...

so to what i understand Aftermath only triggers from the new WS that are coming out rite?

[Max™]

SPECULATION, NOT ACTUAL STATS, NOONE HAS PLAYED WITH A CONQUEROR THAT I KNOW OF.

Spoiler: show

Conqueror Dmg 93 Dly 504
Increases rate of critical hits.
Aftermath: Increases Acc/Atk
Occasionally attacks twice.

Hmmm, doesn't sound improbable to me, going for things based on the job, War 2hr being all crits, since acc/att would be superfluous with Agg/Zerk, Occasionally attacks twice would make Enhances Double Attack effect silly.

That or something that makes Defender give -Dmg% (encroaches on bravura though) or make Defender take away less attack/give more Defense to the point where it's a more viable damage mitigation method.

[Lordwafik]

If you get any item that says "Increases rate of critical hits", it's shot itself in the foot.

/stare Mercy Stroke

[Max™]

Yeah, I thought about that after I posted it...

Perhaps Increases Critical Hit Damage!

Oh god... *faps*

I am super psyched now. Especially after this:

While Nyzul Isle relics are still likely to be as attention-grabbing as Dynamis, puppetmasters desperate for the new weaponskill should not feel forced to grind 50,000 Alexandrite -- a daunting task, even with the increased drop rates coming as well with the September content update. Rather, the new weaponskill will be available through a quest, similar to that which earns the Asuran Fists weaponskill.

There will be quests for all to get these new weaponskills!

Oh and btw....why would Puppetmaster need another job adjustment? We certainly are ones who should not complain after we were hugely buffed, even if the Activate timer remains too long and the AI is a bit suspect. Those are a bit minor though.

why did those sites have to choose the lolest weapons <_<

[bsphil]

- More job adjustments are planned, but no adjustments are planned for puppetmaster.

...

>_>

I like the specific mention at least.

- It may be possible in the future for players to change their faces and hairstyles.

I got stupidly excited over this. I f'in hate my character model. Ideally I'd be Elvaan (oh, how I wish I'd known what jobs I'd eventually come to love, back when I started the game and wanted to be a DRG or SMN...), but switch face/hair? I'll take it!

Shit I totally wooshed this. I can finally get a 6 Hit Weaponskill and do more than shitty 400 damage dragon kicks? Fuck yessss.

[Xno Kappa]

Please fucking no.

Why aren't you using Howling Fist Jnun! With BRD buffs and zerk, I have gotten extremely close to breaking 1k on merit mobs (not including those sexy 1300 APs from my pup) :D

Cuz when I merit I actually merit, not third wheel it up. That and the LS won't let me. The main reason being why do 1k+1.3k WS every few mins when I can churn out 1.6k on DRK every few seconds, lul.

Edit: Sigh and yes I am a very proud PUP but just not in merits. Because I can do so much better on other jobs, it just feels like I'm letting the party down.

Maybe this WS will fix it, ijdk.

[LinktheDeme]

Please fucking no.

BRB "BORROWING" A KRAKEN CLUB

[Buttons]

Wow such nice info.

New way for low and mid levels to gain EXP, sounds interesting.

And yay hair and face change, very nice.

[Dein]

God I want to know what the Burtgang does. Damage taken -7%, Enmity+5, or something along those lines please SE.

[Kirbyprime]

Here's to hoping the Alexandrite update is actually worth it, and not something stupid like ("oh, you only need 4000 pieces now and drop rate is increased by 2%").

Oh, and someone find / translate the COR relic ; ;
