New Version Update Scheduled for November! (09/24/2009)

[Kaibelf]

New avatars. I call it.

Yes I'm pretty sure they did say that a while back.

The point of my post is that since that time, it would appear that they reconsidered this idea and decided to buff wyverns in other ways instead. I then went on to list examples of other ways they have buffed wyverns. It's probably safe to say that they did those other buffs instead of giving direct control.

I would pretty much assume that their idea of giving direct control of your wyvern has long since been tossed out in favor of those other buffs.

There are also those new, unused breath animations in the dats.

I'd like to see some way to at least influence the results of FoV augments, mayhaps some side system where you trade tabs or some other form of points in to buy an item you trade alongside with piece of gear to influence stats.

IE mayhaps it'll influence what category of stats, mainly range/melee/magic/defense.

Melee would be things like dex, str, att, crit, range racc, ratt, so on, thus removing this whole dusk gloves with mnd+2 and aquilos staves with str+5 on them, allowing us to at least have some control over the stats.

[travOtaku]

There's no way to influence whether or not a hagun will drop in SiAC, and there's no way to influence whether or not an E. Body will drop off of Odin, so I don't think that SE will introduce a system that will let us be able to influence our Dusk Gloves into popping out with a STR+2 ACC+5 augment.

It sucks.

You can however influence what item drops in celery by what ghost you kill ^^

Which was more what I meant. Instead of getting random chance at ALLL stats, the item for whatever cost would single out a set of stats available.

In fact its a double edged sword, as now though you've removed, say, mp+10 on those dusk gloves, you've now dramaticly boosted your chance at getting a - stat that will actually effect you, no more mnd -3, your only gonna get str- or dex-.

So it boosts chances at -stat that hurts, but icnreases chance at + stat that rocks.

Or SE could just make it so that all light armor gear will get dex/acc, heavy armor offensive get str/att, heavy armor defensive gets vit/def, mage light gets mnd/int/mp, and the weapons only get stats for their types

IE staves, wands, etc get mnd/int, 2handeds get str/att, one handers like katana and dagger get acc/dex, so on and so forth.

Could just add an extra sub menu when you use "Call Wyvern". Defensive, Offensive, Multipurpose. The way you can tell the difference would be the color of the tails. Defensive is white tipped, offensive is red/black tip, and multipurpose is default wyvern(Gold/Blue tipped).

It's how I interpreted what the Devs said when they said they wanted DRGs to have better control over their wyverns at the fanfest.

info plz

and be direct.

[Jem]

Well there's the expected MMM update.

[Shamaya]

the dagger looks really nice, shame we all know the stats are going to be shit and THF damage is still pointless anyway.

I didn't get my hopes up the moment I saw that thing. It looks too cool to be anything useful. Watch it be just some NPC's show-off piece from new wotg missions/cutscenes. Or something equally useless. Or they could just be nice and make it the perfect offhand for my Mandau that Vajra will unfortunately never be..

dagger looks nice, hopefully you can obtain using allied notes.. i'm lazy ;/

Fuck no, I'd rather it cost like 5m. I'm lazier. Fuck campaign

[Kaslo]

Fuck no, I'd rather it cost like 5m. I'm lazier. Fuck campaign

What if it was both, an AH'able item you can buy with AN, but really expensive and requires highest rank.

Can you be specific? I've done that BCNM like 30-40 times and have seen all the drops. Pair of elusive earrings from 3 runs some nights, pair of kukri on other nights, mixed bag on yet others, and sometimes not much worth putting on AH. And all from the same ghost.

If there's a way to skew the pool I'd love to hear about it. Color me skeptical for now.

[Pirotese]

Well there's the expected MMM update.

Does SE really think that ppl even use MMM? It's like their excuse not to add other stuff. " We did a massive MMM update, so we didnt have space for your new Avatars, BLM JAs, THF JAs, BST Mods, etc... Maybe next update!"

[Shamaya]

I think that would be ideal.

As for MMM, idk anyone else other than my posse that does it. It's actually pretty good money selling Ermine's Tails; just a shame it's so hard to get my group together to do it being in different time zones >,<. There are good rewards and the fights themselves aren't that bad (kinda fun even), but the system is very poorly designed.

[Starr]

Oh yay it's October and the new expansion is coming out this month.

[Gtype954]

Oh yay it's October and the new expansion is coming out this month.

Are you always this stupid starr? It says NEW VERSION UPDATE SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER!

OMG!!! You troll more then Hideo Kojima on a new metal gear solid trailer.

[Starr]

wow, you're just about to get fucking owned for the 250th time (you have 250 posts, c wut I did thar?). You are a fucking moron, stop posting.

[Starr]

At least the trailer says October, did I miss the message where SE were lazy again and didn't change it to November?

[dejet]

yes you did. people said why they think it said so. Odds are it was planed early then got pushed back like everything else.

[Riki]

Odds are the Shantotto addon will be available for preorder in October.
Update was always scheduled for November.

[Starr]

Hi dejet, (are you alone?)

that is cheesy on your home page :D
