Wow, the Hall of Novice stuff is new, sounds like it was custom designed for me too.

Also, I have a question. I already cleared A5S this week, but if I joined another group and helped them, can roll on the item in the chest? Saw a few PFs earlier that I was considering joining.

Sable Death Mask, and Fenrir. Been a productive week (Though it took me months to gather the 1 mil MGP because I didn't care for it until recent.)
No; the loot window won't even pop up for you. They'll have to tell you what drops if you want to know.
You do get the 30 lore or whatever, but that's it. Well, that and the warm fuzzy feeling of helping out.
It's pretty much garbage.

I have been power leveling my crafts to 15+ this week and even started the Ixali quests. Is there another recommended beast tribe I should be doing?
Most beast tribe quests are simple battle classes besides the ixal. If you want to do relic it's good to grab Sahagin/Amaljaa/Sylphs/Kobold and do them all if you can since they're decent sources of the 80 relic items you need.
Kobolds are the best though because they're the cutest.
Sahagin is good too.

I'm only like 30/80 (not counting turn ins) for a second relic and I'm not concerned one bit about it, xD. Well, I usually do 3 vath and vanu to level my pld which is 57 tomorrow but once I hit 60 I may just do arr beasts exclusively. How many weeks to level them to max?

Huh, I figured that Sohr Khai and Hullbreaker Isle (Hard) would be added to Expert Roulette giving a chance of four different dungeons when selecting that. Instead, those two alone are the new Expert Roulette and The Antitower and The Lost City of Amdapor (Hard) have been moved to Level 60 Dungeons instead.
Also no Mhachi Matter from Void Ark anymore, boo. That was a super-easy 500k a week right there. It's been moved to Weeping City of Mhach instead, which will probably still be easy but not as easy.
Wow, and they added NPC Materia Melders. You just need gil and the materia you want to meld, don't need a catalyst. Advanced melding isn't included though.
Edit: Holy shit! "Players can now hide quests from their duty list"

It is always like that every patch. Nothing new, honestly. I wish they would do that to mix it up but I'm pretty bored of Anti tower having ran it a gazillion times.
Edit: Very excited for this patch..... I hope I can make the best of it.

Time to start playing MCH again.
There's some decent stuff in this patch. Some nice quality of life improvements, good looking gear (praying the Vanu/Vath stuff is dyeable and that one set that looks caster-ish isn't PVP but it probably is), and lots to do in general. I don't have any crafters at 50 though because I don't have the patience so I won't be getting the puffball mount any time soon.

I'm surprised you didn't see 180 sec battle voice and start pining for my sweet singing voice again.

Yes. Buy me a medium house again and charge it to Kawazi.

Well you can't overmeld with those NPCs, so there's still a reason for you to carry on.

Holy shit
20% more barrier on Aspected Helios does not magically fix Nocturnal Astrologian but it's a very welcome addition and a good start. 30s Spread is exactly what I wanted and expected when they first announced they were making it easier to manipulate the cards. It didn't make any sense to have it on a 1 minute timer and can now be used very liberally to alleviate the RNG factor. I don't think there'll be a lot of complaints with cards now, it's going to be easy to set up good combos.
NIN AOE buffs are neat, they will make dungeons less frustrating. It's interesting that they chose to (significantly) buff Katon, it's now strictly better from 2 targets in every situation.
And so many BRD buffs...

More Last Remnant. \o/
At first I thought you were crazy, but considering the rest of the beast tribes this may actually be accurate.
Song fixes for Bard are nice. Be interesting to see how the rest pans out.
Raid Finder is going to start imposing iLevel minimums on people doing current tier raids (everyone, since direct Hinterlands access is being removed):
Which would have sucked had this been in place week 1. I don't see i245 requirement for A9S going over super well, so I'll be curious to see if they continue that next tier.

They didn't show a CD reset. Mr Happy (I believe? didn't watch his live thing, only read the thing later on) thought there was so it carried over into Marko's translation and Reddit. There never was a CD reset, Yoshida's CDs were on cooldown when he wiped himself during the Live Letter.

I want that new aiming set SO BAD
Yeah, week 1 would have been awful since it would basically lock out everyone from Savage unless they had full crafted gear lol. It doesn't really matter now since Midas NM no longer has weekly restrictions besides for the Gears, getting to ilvl 215 shouldn't take more than a couple hours if you do it as a group.

I like that they increased the chance for you to get a map while gathering...sometimes that could take a bit too long for my tastes and I'm gonna want to get those dragonskin maps much sooner than before now.
NIN buffs are a nice start, still wish we could use goad on ourselves but oh well.

Those sweet, delicious bard buffs!
Remember those times people laughed when I said they were incoming.
I was kidding back then but yay!
Yeah, my concern is less about it making a big deal right now (we're late enough in the raid tier nothing matters!) and more that it would be a problematic position for next tier. The week one gates on 5 and 6 will would basically mandate crafted immediately, and setting 7 and 8 at 225 from the get-go I think would have actually derailed early prog since the highest you could infinite grind and crafted yourself to was 220. Saving for the weapon would have meant multiple DPS going without any lore buys for the first few weeks, relying on drop RNG to push you high enough to get into the next fight in the tier wouldn't be great, etc. It mostly currently sucks as an arbitrary wall for taking alt jobs in.
I do wonder if this leads to a situation where they introduce next tier with an i240 minimum across the board and then bump it up in the catchup patch.
Reading the famitsu translation from slycer got my hopes up for a more substantial Noct buff.
I mean a 20% increase to Aspected Helios shields is a pretty good start, but wish there were changes so Noct worked better with some of the OGCD.
At least spread is now 30s instead of 60s now.
Since NIN is my main dps I will always welcome some AoE buffs, so thats good to see.
Also SE please bring that Sole Survivor pvp addition to PvE!
I was hype as fuck when I saw that change and then I saw for "PvP".
Don't get me wrong SS is nice to slap on before adds die, but thats it. This would give it some other use in PvE.
Maybe they are testing the waters via PvP?
Well at least the 3 jobs i play have some additions across the board.

A straight up 10% Vulnerability debuff would be huge if used in PvE. I think it would be too much honestly.
Really happy about being able to buy Replica Anima weapons. I love the Almace and Ancile models, but I really don't like the glow they're sporting now.

Heat of Battle III yessssssssss
Time to level up my monk

Some post-buff Bard math. A lot of the long-term wisdom of the buffs is going to depend on how next tier is designed since despite what Yoshida has been saying they just buffed Bard to be markedly ahead of MCH DPS in sustained single-target. Which is fine but continues the sense of them winging class balance via random potency changes.
This tier a meh MCH did more damage than a meh Bard and I don't think the buffs change that so fight design will be a thing.
