Nyzul Weapon Information

[Deftscythe]

Work-filters prevent me from accessing most sites, but here's one thread wherein Gahoo of FFXIclopedia explicitly states that it's his understanding from talking to the Site Summit reps that the base weapons will be required:

And I consistently insulted people? Blimey. Sensitive much? I was highlighting the tissue-paper foundation upon which people's hopes were resting. Please go back and read the first post I made and note the terms 'little-to-no' and 'all but outright'. Both accept the lack of certainty. Yes, I acknowledge that nothing is yet absolutely, completely, written in stone, 100% but -- that to all intense porpoises -- I personally am quite happy to take it for based on, like.. things n stuff.

I can only guess that you were/are inaccurately attributing to some sort of irritating, know-it-all, arrogant tone of voice to a piece of written text that was merely expressing a strongly-held and evidentially-supported opinion. And then getting all knicker-twisted over it. On BG no less. Damn, on the internet no less.

Point is: I didn't insult anyone, you shrivel-dicked fuckflap.

(That last sentence was intended as a joke, by the by. I don't really think of you as a shrivel-dicked fuckflap. <3)

You guessed wrong. You presented something as a fact which is not; I don't like that in any discussion. After I pointed it out, you said anyone who didn't agree with your interpretation of things was kidding themselves, which is arrogant. Once again, you've assumed my opinion on how the WS will be obtained when I've given no such thing. As such, I'm not "knicker-twisted" over anything. I am, in fact, quite detached from the topic.

By the way, your link doesn't work.

Do we have to lock this thread until we get any solid information about the Nyzul Weapons? Stop the pointless bickering.

Bugger, lame linking skills. Apologies.

Try this one? Second page I think.

Spoiler: show

As for 'presenting it as fact', I disagree. 'All but outright' and 'little-to-no' were not arbitrarily chosen terms in that post. Use of those words would have, I'd hoped, indicated that I did - and still do - acknowledge that what I presented is based simply on evidence and indeed has not explicitly been stated by the overlords at SE. Do I think that anyone hoping they won't require a base Mythic is kidding themselves? Absolutely. I fail to appreciate what's so arrogant about that, though.

If the post was lacking explicit 'in my opinion guys!!' disclaimers alongside the non-100% qualifiers then I apologise for that. That said, fact: I didn't state anything as fact that wasn't based on inferential evidence, which pretty much shines a large 'here, make your own mind up!' beacon on the whole post.

I hope to the gods that I'm wrong. I want to smack shit about with big rose petals too (and I won't be hitting Nyzul 100F anytime soon). Typically, I've set myself up for tasty lose-lose situation: turns out we don't need a base Mythic and I have egg on my face; turns out we do need a base Mythic and I'm back to lamenting my crappy RDM sword WSs.


EDIT: Oops, Septimus laid down the law while I was typing that. Spoilered my final bicker-tastic pair of paragraphs for the Greater Good.

OK, let me word this stronger.

This thread is called "Nyzul Isle Information", not "Nyzul Isle Wild Speculation". Unless you can post some real information, stop the pointless speculation.

Aymur reality:
Enhance Gauge
Aftermath: Increase Pet M.acc and M.atk

I laughed so hard I almost threw up my breakfast hahahahaha

It reminded of me when Vegetto said MNK relic will probably enhance Footwork, but this was far more hilarious. Though, I think the rest of the relic weapons will be surprisingly nice and people will want them

Sept. update is almost here so just gotta be patient But I love hearing these "worst case scenarios" in the mean time. Great stuff!


Oh hai Deeke I just got my Runic Key for completing Nyzul Isle 100F on Sunday. It's EASY PEASY. Come over to Odin I'll take you to 100F. We're going to be finishing a 3rd 100F here really soon and working on a 4th disc The fact that we need 150,000 tokens makes people work at helping others. I need about..... 140,000 tokens so I'll be "helping" for a while
