Relic Augments

[Lyramion]

PW Atma is great because you can have 2x 50MAB stacked. (Enhances "Zanshin" effect:Superior "Magic Atk. Bonus":Superior (+50) Enhances "Demon Killer" Effect:Minor)

And actually Failure, they did leave a small window open for more Abyssea - Gilgamesh explicitly states that they found other maws across the world that were inactive. For all we know SE could spin some bullshit story twist about how they've been roused now that Promathia is dead & gone or whatever.

I may be really dumb but I think they mean the ones that WoTG uses since they're petrified/"dead" etc.

That is how I understood it, but Abyssea is pretty much wizardry so who the fuck knows.

A Wizard did it part Duo 1/2? i like Abyssea never liked Wings but that might be because it took so long to end

[Rocl]

Time and cross-dimensional travel are fucktarded plot devices for a whole bunch of reasons which make my brain hurt just trying to list. Seriously, it would have been better if you blamed it on fucking Lion or something.

[TheTaru]

fucking Lion

If the next expansion/add-on involves this, I'm all for it.

All ready happened >_>

it's japanese, developer interview, NO.254,259,271,278,285,
I know most of ppl can't read japanese, but ppl ask "sauce?", so I did.

[Massimo]

That is some saucy news indeed.

[Jericho]

Anyone else REALLY not looking forward to taking pictures endlessly again?

[Malacite]

It's too ambiguous to say one way or the other. Besides, we know that it's an almost identical world to ours, up until the end of CoP. So why wouldn't there be, say, Abyssea - Bhafflau if SE wanted to? Not that I'm encouraging this though, I've had my fill with 9 (10) zones.

Also:

pretty much this. I can understand it just fine, but I still hate them as plot devices since they screw up and/or annul any reasons you can conjure for explaining them.


Like Terminator. Okay, so you go back in time to change the Future. Well then what the fuck is stopping someone else from going back in time and undoing that, or what if it causes multiple parallel universes to spawn, like with Trunks in DBZ where killing Cell didn't even change his future, only that one.

We're getting waaaaay off topic here now though. What I'd like to know with regards to Abyssea is if AF3 will remain relevant at 99 and not just more macro gear. I'm pretty sure people are gonna keep doing it if nothing else for a stupid fast ride to 99. It does make a little sad inside to Abyssea reduced to nothing more than an EXP tool, but then I guess it was inevitable.

I think he meant sch.

Had honestly forgotten that was still a job. My bad.

Well it wont be for another 5 months.

EDIT: unless endgame moves outside of abyssea.

[jimbobsonofgod]

I would welcome pw for mythic trials, if only for more people to actually bother with it. I kinda expect it actually, being the "last" trial and all, and us being 24 levels over our initial bout.

I take it you don't own a mythic.

Fuck

That

Noise.

[Malacite]

That is *not* cool if they're really not bumping up the cap again March...


Jesus Christ stop using XI as stop-gap for FF14 already SE.

[Michelob]

I expected it, to be honest. They need time to make 99 end game content before they give us 99.

I also expect most af3+2 to be situational. Level 80-90 gear won't be the end-all stuff at 99, obviously.

[Atomic Skull]

I think they originally were going to go to 99 with the expectation that it was the last hurrah for FFXI before we all switched over to FFXIV.

Then FFXIV went down in flames and they shit their pants when they realized that they were going to have to keep FFXI running for the foreseeable future. So lvl 99 and a completely broken FFXI was canceled and now they are looking at keeping the game balanced again.

Maybe SE will finally get off their asses and properly maintain their engine while they are at it. It really needs to be updated to DirectX 9 and/or 10 because DirectX 8 support in Vista and Windows 7 is pretty horrible now. (note that I don't mean a graphics update, just some long overdue maintenance to the client)
