Prep. Update Data Mine (Aug 31 2010)

[Spira]

how do you record what happens on altanaviewer into a vid anyway

[Sho]

all it says is its not in the prep update.. but going by how stuff is released, the 4 missing jobs af pieces will be added.

its possible the body and hands might not be included at all tho.. but even then if its ready they could just add those files in first

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't add hands and body pieces at all, and instead include them in the Heroes of Abyssea expansion. Would free up people to work on them solely/mostly instead of upgrading the entire set + weapons, etc.

FRAPs should be able to work with Altanaviewer.

[Alkar]

We'll have to upgrade these pieces again when the next update hits so I don't think that's the reason.

[GreenKnux]

I'm worried about SMN. Right now it looks very muted in colors. Hell, a lot of the AF look like they have a filter of brown and grimdark applied to them.

[SephYuyX]

Figures the 3 jobs I care about arent shown. (Assuming thats WAR af and not BST).
I cant wait to find out that the only way to obtain the new AF will be ridiculous.

Christ just let me buy it with the worthless curor that will never be used again.

[Draylo]

TBH I don't think they will make it very hard to obtain the AF3. I think they realize people won't have that much time to devote to it anymore like Dynamis and such.

The other two missing BLU spells are new. The wind one (also seen in the update pic) looks nothing like the wind moves we know and the other looks like an absorb spell (like Voracious Trunk).

Pretty sure it was cyclonic turmoil, the pixie move.

this x100000000

but putting my money on shitty NM drops like accessories .....

[Alkar]

Gain-VIT and Gain-MND are single target (rdm versions) and Boost-... are AoE. The animations are similar to the barspell ones so I'd assume RDM is self only and WHM is for the party.

Empyrean weapons

They intended for those weapons to be more difficult to get. Look at all the other gear available though, and how easy it is to form like 3~10 people to kill almost all the NMs in abyssea except for a few. The gear is amazing too.

[Eldinia]

any youtube video on the new Blue magic?

Ha! Suck it all you people that said Boost wouldn't be AoE!


...oh wait, I guess we all have to suck it it.

I guess WHM's will have to play earlyBRD/COR and try to stand just right to make sure certain jobs get certain boosts. But really it will just be: Boost-STR on melee's and be done with it, maybe Boost-MND for yourself.
SCH merited ele buffs will probably be the same bonus but better for singling out.

Loving that new COR head, was really hoping one of the boots would be a peg leg. lol
BST is ugly.
PUP will prolly look alot better on a taru.

If they make the drops similar to the accessories, where only a certain NM drops them, that has potential to suck.

[Spira]

i'd upload it but for some reason my current place has got like the shittiest upload speeds in the world
i'll keep trying

You take that back, right now. Ram / tusks > Sheep attire

[Alkar]

Regarding the new Ninjutsu.
Yurin could be a buff or debuff. Can't tell atm.
Myoshu looks like a buff. Maybe a protect+shell thing or something else.

[Magitek]

I don't like the thought of Yurin on Myoshu

Anyone else feeling "horny"? LAWLZ!

[Byrthnoth]

255/35 = Blue Magic: Fantod (Hippogryph)

When Hippos use it, Fantod ~triples the damage of their next attack. Cannonball go~!

[Zeke]

That's more like buggard horns. Maybe it will drop from that horny faced buggard.
Okay, I take it back.

Bugggards are ugly.
