Backwards thinking to me that this change is going to punish people compared to the current state of how the upgrades work.
You're right in that this update isn't going to make the process worse than it is.
Idk what server you're on, but for bahamut the fomor NMs die in the first hour of spawn, between midnight-1am JST and the Tier1-3 NMs were downed by 4am JST the days they were spawned. Meaning if you cannot login between midnight and 4am JST (8am-noon PST) then you miss out on the "This will increase the pace at which you can earn the matter needed to reforge your equipment."
Of course this benefits players who already kill the NMs, but instead of incentivizing participation, I think it just creates pressure on those who can’t make the spawn window. Those ppl are effectively punished, and there are those who will feel compelled to log in despite sleep, work, or other obligations to avoid falling behind, much like the old HNM spawns.
Is my angle
Literally exactly what I said, repeatedly, when people were asking for NM rewards.

They are in the game. They are content to do... Just like the red book Scyld hunts for Evoliths >_>;

It would be absolutely evil and cruel if the game actually tracked magian trials and every one counted towards mastery rank. There's what, 5000+ of them?
Not today Satan. Don't put that evil on us. Keep that thought to yourself.

Tested the new Bravery tonban legs from Limbus, the +1 Avatar's Favor does NOT reduce the BP timer down past 20 secs. I suspected as much, but confirmation saves me from having to buy a pair myself.
I guess the only outstanding question is if the HQ body is somehow a BIS for some kind of damage type.

So gold 3k box is:
1 shard
0-3 synth mats
0-1 matter
I think the synth mats part may actually be:
0-2 alabaster/murky part/core
0-1 synth mat
Anyone have a 3k box with double synth mat? I quickly glanced over the thread but didnt see it. Ive had 2x ala/murky, ive had 1x ala/murk + 1 synth mat, but no double synth mat

Alicorn mount doesn't come from the Ixion, trade to the lead Alicorn in another zone - Qufim Island has Alicorns.
|
|
 |
|
|
Am I having a bout of extreme bad luck?
I have traded 1,584, fireworks, 4 statcks a day for the last 4 days; making 100% sure it is the lead Mirthful Ixion.
I have yet to get an Alicorn mount. I do in fact NOT have it.

for gold box, this seems to be the reward structure:
5k box is: 2x shard, 2-6 synth mats, 1 matter *Seems to be a max of two alabaster/murky parts/core per box
3k box is: 1x shard, 0-2 synth mats or matter *I'd be willing to change this to "0-2 synth mats, 0-1 matter", but I havent seen anyone report 1 shard, 2 mats, 1 matter from a 3k box yet.
limitation on either box: no item can repeat, atleast no ones said they've gotten 2x of the same item from one box thus far
gold 3k box is 1 shard, 0-2 mats, 0-1 matter

Yeah ya know... looking at that know, idk why I combined those. Thanks for catching that. Fixed.

You basically read my mind of what I was going to ask for! Wonderful idea and execution.
One more thing, I noticed that complete resists and resists have the same message displayed on the action bar currently. Could we possibly indicate complete resists as such? (Very helpful for RDM's.)

I'm not sure that advertising this app as a browser-based client simulator...
Thank you for the feedback! You guys are right. There were a few reasons I focused on the asset-viewer over the game-mode (personal bias as the developer, lack of confidence in the game design, etc), but it's clear now that it wasn't a good idea from a "marketing" perspective. This is my first public release of a project, and I'm definitely learning a lot from it.
implement some type of NG+ mode...
That's an interesting idea! There are a few things I want to experiment with adding first, but I'll try to loop around to this.

The AF/relic +4s have a lot of storetp, I think they're all probably pretty close.
Head too, dropping a whopping 12 storetp for QA+4(?).

I think it is a near certain bet that they will do it again in May this year, it brought more players back to the game (read: revenue for SE) than anything in over 10 years. There is no way they won't do it again.

I may be remembering wrong, but didn't someone mention something a few months back about SE thinking about putting out a second round Mog Bonanza weapons from login the the future?

That mount... MUST HAVE!
Also, are we not getting in campaigns this month? Usually they have them posted by now. <.<;
I wouldn't even afk in town anymore with one of those. Just be roaming around like that cactuar nm in altepa.

Early content effort reward ratio has been abysmal for a long time. SE is always releasing new content rewards with the hand break pulled because multi boxers and bots would rush thru and complain 1-2 months later that there is nothing to do.
1-5 years later they adjust effort/reward ratio and over a decade later they adjust it again so the average joe can finally play catch up.
For the regular players and in particular solo players the effort/reward is often so bad that content isn't worth touching before the first adjustment is made.

Quote: we are adding a new kind of points that are based on how much damage you inflict against the notorious monsters.
This points system is a direct response to your request for a reward structure tied to actions such as inflicting damage on the notorious monsters within Limbus. Once you have earned the required number of points, you will be able to open one additional treasure chest. This will increase the pace at which you can earn the matter needed to reforge your equipment. Plus, these points do not expire, so you can keep them until they're needed. Additionally, the Grace buffs within Limbus increase incrementally depending on the total number of treasure chests opened in the World, so the more that are opened, the stronger the effect will be.
These points are awarded not only when you inflict damage on the notorious monster, but when your party members do as well. I recommend you form a party and take on the monsters together if you're using a job with lower attack strength.

The absurdly long upgrade process
JP will complain at how long this process is and they will release Moogle Amplifier 2.0

Hands and Feet are interesting for sure. The lack of STP is disappointing. PDL and Crit aren't doing much of anything with SAM's TP/WS split. However, QA is similar to a Zanhasso proc.
Lehko's in terrible for SAM. (and every job IMO)
I would do Hands first then Feet. Feet compete with Sakonji sune-ate +4 and Ryuo Sune-Ate +1.

Assuming you have nothing at all now.
Around 10 weeks for each piece, so ~6 months of doing both zones 5 times each week. It can be slightly faster with that extra chest from NMs points, but if its only 1 random chest per month, then it will be like 1 week faster.
