I'm gonna make our T9 farms hilarious.

Asami: WHO'S DPS IS SHIT NOW?!
Yeah, worried about that. That's why I can't log out tomorrow.
I could literally put those markers anywhere and you'd all follow it blindly. Brb, redrawing all the diagrams so that the entire circle is a death zone.
I'd check back tonight. No specific time but they have had it up like 4 hours or so before on these 24 hour patches if memory serves.
Problem is, it's based on prelim patch notes which may be a bit incomplete. The coordinates in the Miscellaneous section, for instance, are wrong but that's what's in the patch notes.
I have the strangest urge now to do this once the game goes back up >_>. Or even better, Titan HM.
I think there are some other groups out there that data mine equipment stats. XIVdb tends to lag a bit tho.
How would that even be possible without the patch being up to download...?
Get out of here with your logic, Rai.
xivdb should be the place to look.

In wow and other blizzard games at least, you could sometimes grab the client from the CDN before it was officially released and datamine that. That or datamining an alpha client, though that'd require for it to be leaked. But yeah not likely in general.
That's why I said, "I take it," largely I was asking if there was something I didn't know on this particular subject. XD
Holmgang in PvP should have its HP preservation removed and CD lowered to something like 20s so that WARs could pull dragoons and monks off healers. And, well, just give tanks some meaningful ways to protect healers at all.
The design direction for Frontlines seem to be all about prevention of turtling. More nerfs like that and there's gonna be no reason to play anything but BLM, MNK and BRD. And one SCH I guess.

Yeah, probably downloadable in few hours. I'm not sure if I see them pulling servers up early, simply because they extended the maint by an hour to avoid the weird reset.
It's the same people isn't it?
Just xivdb waits till the patch is actually up versus jumping in before.
Not that a few hours makes much difference.
Side note, I saw this pointed out on Reddit:

Reminds me:
It was a semi-GAF party fighting adders constantly at manors, so maybe you were there.

You really can't understand why a person wouldn't want to throw themselves at something for a few hours and make little to no progress?
Its hard getting 8 adults together. That time is precious.

Well that makes sense and was already mentionned in a "not what you expect" way for the gunner class. We'll see at the JP fan fest I guess. I think they'd want to reveal the healer job though, so stuff like Chemist/Salve-Maker or Agent seem to kinda make a bit more sense, maybe.
Saw this on Reddit and burst out laughing at it haha.
Anyway I'm going to try and wake up at 7am GMT (time when it was supposed to end) for this. Any chance of it being up then? I mean they did say they were extending it by an hour, would they end the maint early even though they probably want to avoid people getting early Poetics before the weekly reset?
Oh sweet. Will still probably run my face into the wall trying to build up the Curtana, post-patch, but it's good to see there is another option out there for getting decent weapons available.
Well well well... The Chemist is becoming more and more probable.

They certainly wouldn't have an early maintenance end, unless they somehow found a way to move the weekly reset for this week only which is probably not worth it. Since they specifically added an hour so people don't rush poetics, I don't see them going back on that even if they're ready. So wouldn't expect server being up before the appointed time, but you can maybe prepare for the server NOT being up for several hours AFTER the maintenance is supposed to end, depending on your trust in mmo servers.
Btw, assuming Rogue and Ninja get a ton of fate parties going, how long do you think that will last?
I would assume take advantage of those parties to get my Monk leveled a bit more quickly, but I do want to try my hand at Ninja as well.
Also, I take it crafted Dragoon armor will be too insanely priced to realistically consider, right?
Shame, seeing as the itemization for both the Soldiery and High Allagen sets bite.
Seriously Skill Speed and Crit everywhere. I need accuracy and determination on that class, badly.

I'm hoping not for several hours. Trying to get some story quests in before my partner in crime has to leave (3 and a half hours playtime assuming servers don't royally screw up)
At the very least, Hoping the first hour will be the worst of it hahaha
;_; please
It needs new tools to procure. New tools need dailies and MDs.
Edit: Well patch notes imply it's gonna be possible to do 4-stars even with current gear, but much harder. Which does nothing to help the pricing issue of course.

Shiva EX will drop 110 weapons too, though you'd probably be expected to have a 110weapon before attempting her unless they mess up the balancing. The soldiery weapon will be easy enough to farm, to an extent, might need a few ST runs before you get an UAT and a sand though with everyone rolling on everything because they can. Hell might take more than a "few". That's why I'm glad I have an UAT and sand saved up from the last 2 weeks runs.
Relic should be a ton easier to build now, but on the other hand, it still costs a ton to get the materias for your novus. As a tank it's a bit cheaper though cause you can use parry and what not.

Yeah, this would be a good PVP skill. Still, I'd rather still a whole new Holmgang-esque skill created for PVP, and PVE Holmgang altered to be more useful for PVE.
The tether just, isn't useful outside PVP. Even some trash mobs seem to be immune to it now.
Just grab Monk gear from Venders. It'll get people by while they're leveling on Fates.
? just buy it from an npc?
Now the Vamper's Knives? Those might cost an arm since it's probably the item used for melding in the relic quest-line (by the way any 50 alchemists in GAF? Have the mats excluding the Bloody Knife Blades.
Going to either do leve's or farm the chest in Wanderer's palace).
Once servers go up I'll def. be running around unlocking everything first. I'll unlock NIN last cause I'll be playing that for a couple hours at least while the getting is good with fates etc. lol. I didn't get to clear Ramuh X prior to this patch, but I'll get that this week I hope (carry me GAF plz lol). Also, finally got around to cleaning up and organizing my retainers before maintenance, felt good to finally get that done after almost a year of so much stuff building up. One thing I'm not short on now is materia, should be able to make a few hundred thou or more from them. Novus/Nexus is really not on my radar, so I won't be saving them.
