Just looked on the Creator's Blog, and there are the SCH merits. It looks like the new abilities cost 2 charges (yikes!), and two for each book, and each is a merit. Probably merit accuracy for the Black Grimore and enmity down for White Grimore. Rapture + Accession + Enmity Down ability = love...and no charges for 4 minutes.

There's also what appears to be two traits, one of them dealing with weather..."Storm Surge". My guess is that it deals with the effect of the weather spells on other spells.

And SCH relic looks really really nice. Even nicer than PUP relic.

I am suddenly reminded of Starcraft II.

I like the idea of new stories. For me they are the main appeal of new expansions. This could be handled poorly or be really awesome. I am doomed to purchase them either way.

Also Field of Valor(+Dungeon) sounds like an incredible amount of newbie content. This update could rival the last in that department.

Now only if they add Field of Valor stuff to Expeditionary Forces...

The tuxes are for weddings. It's the male version of the wedding dress.

'bout stinkin' time if you ask me.

omg furnishing sounds awesome i wantttttttttttt

[Deader2818]

I really find it funny it took them almost 2 years to throw ToAU relic into dynamis, but it took them like, a few months to do that for SCH and DNC?

Make those fuckers wait like we had to >.>

[Griselda]

I want that baby chocobo furnishing! ><

[Lebzile]

I better freaking win

lol

[BRP]

I don't understand how this will work though...

2 doesn't fit into the pattern of 3. Dynamis will end up unbalanced I guess.

[Destinye]

20:31 and now the players are rioting since they didn't talk about AV or PW

This sounds like American Fanfests tbh..I mean people boo'd a band they weren't expecting.

[EdgeMoragan]

WIN ELMER WIN!!!

[Keyln]

The reason why it took so long for ToAU relic to get added was because they were trying to figure something else out to do with the relic rather than just have it drop in Dynamis. Then they decided to bite the bullet and let it drop in Dynamis. Looks like they're not having the same indecision with the WotG relic.
