Return of Pummeler's legs/feet. With a vengeance.
They never left my base sets.

I thought the whole idea was streamline so casual players can catch up on Acc/Attk/M.Eva on gear, without having to grind Endgame content that they can't or won't participate in?

Asura.Bronzequadav said: »Probably already been said but the fact that they capped units at 100k similar to the early gallimaufry cap kind of implies they are planning further upgrades and don't want anyone hoarding points to be done with it instantly upon release.
incoming reforged ilvl 119 IV relic weapons.
As much as I want R30 Relic Augments, there is no amount of WSD that will make Final Heaven not suck, and that makes me sad.

AF hands are another option if you're missing magic haste.
AF hands are a better TP piece than relic feet, even if you ignore the hasso.

So they took the absolute peak of hype. the free bonanza weapon.
And followed it up with this. They are going to go into full blown red alert panic mode when they see how we react to this gear.
Creative Business Unit 3 big brain plan: actively trying to create a XIV-like pattern of players joining for a short time during new updates to run through the new content, then leaving the game for months until "good stuff" returns lol.
Get people engaging with XI during GOOD months like May/November. A free bonanza weapon, the good monthly campaigns (May for anniversary or Nov for "XI month"), free login campaign, bonus events like Shami's Trove, mog bonanza sales... and then watch people leave in droves for the run of the mill trash, until the next good month.
/s (or is it???)

but where did they hint at +5 Latest hint: their release notes. The known issues had three pieces of +5 gear as typos. The number of typos in the gear is incredible, though.
Pummeler's Calligae is missing the "+4" completely. This doesn't mean they are reworking +0 gear.
Strings are strange all over the place. Words are wrong, formatting is off. I usually don't bother to ***on SE for bad QA but this really is comical. It's like they didn't bother to have person #2 even check the strings file before straight to release. All of this is visible right at the NPC who shows you the gear.

awww man... didnt dump my 100k ambu points...

Typically emp legs and AF hands are all you need to cover your ja haste, feet can be used if youre like lacking a march or something. Otherwise hard to give up ryuo boots

I just think it is absured on it's face to complain about it when we have had it for most of the games life.
June 2010 Version Update Changes
Visions release, the first line in the history is:

The game is built on it. It's from an era where printed guides were produced. Again, there is only the bare minimum when it comes to quest tracking, with some quests not even flagging until you're already part way in. No indication on WHO gives quests or even what for. No indication of rewards. Nothing. To suggest that this is a good way to run a game is DIRECTLY contradicted by the failure of FFXIV 1.0 where they literally doubled down on all of this and nearly killed the company.
RadialArcana is not a serious person.

Hi folx. '-')/
Hope people are doing alright.
Was told this existed. Looks neat. Will read in a bit.
Maybe can give some feedback. :)
So, I'll start out by saying I welcome another guide writer for the job. From reading through the thread, I understand it's technically "not finished," though really, no job guide technically ever is. So, I'll do my best to remain objective.
- The Enmity Reduction information was a good thought. One, admittedly, I wish I had thought of.
- Perhaps give more consideration to wording on gear swapping section. A Vanilla player can achieve the same effect of balanced HP with minor macro tweaks as a Gearswap or Ashita player.
- Certain sets appear to be high jumps in progression, or pushed to the logical extreme--such as the Cure Self set sitting at 4000+ HP, or the "Mid Tier" set being Odyssey gear.

FFXI, and most games in MMO genre for that matter, is unplayable without resources like ffxiah or wikis to keep track of everything. spoiling game mechanics and mission or quest progression is one thing, but presenting item data in an easily referenced manner benefits everyone.
It is absurd to complain about, no doubt. Guess he didn't get a hug this morning.

I personally don't understand where the shock value is... it stands to reason that +4 would only be marginally better than +3.
The only time gear ever saw a significant jump in stats and even gained some new stats was when +1 went to +2. That is applicable to all artifact/relic/empy.
+2 to +3 was significantly less of an improvement comparatively. Even 109 >> 119 is less comparatively.
The largest gains overall has always been +1 >> +2.
It's not rocket surgery (>'.')>

Given the content is basically a walk in the park, it seems intentional. I doubt they're going to unseat Sortie/Odyssey gear with things that are totally soloable.
I wouldn't be so sure. After the player poll responses, they seem to have been signalling pretty clearly that they do want to focus more on solo players in the coming months/years (including with other comments like coming boosts to trusts).
Sortie gear is already in the realm of soloable: Reforged Empy+2 items are pretty easy for anyone to obtain and are already the second BiS pieces (behind only Empy+3) for many applications. +3 is more of a grind especially if you're upgrading lots of pieces, but not THAT unreasonable for someone to fully gear up a couple priority jobs.
They may also be observing that, while the forum addicts may have R25+ Ody gear, the significant majority of the playerbase isn't engaging with that content and likely won't. Given the party composition and skill requirements, I would be shocked if overall player participation in higher level Gaol NMs isn't in major decline now that most of the hardcore have their stuff and the less hardcore aren't participating (the content is just not practically accessible to the more average players that make up a lot of the subscription revenue, or to soloers).

I don't get why relic armors' enhancements are still an augment and not integrated in the items' stats yet.
I agree that it seems unlikely that we'd have branching augment paths or RP-style augments given that JSE pretty much has to be storable.

So you can spend all day in the zone ??
Now you got 30 min per day to finish it :troll:
But for reals, there is no time limit but there is a weekly point / chest limit.

Your guide is looking better and better!
One thing I'd suggest: consider including "Killer Traits" from /BLU. You have access to Beast, Lizard, and Plantoid Killer.

The Wakido feet+4 have 120 meva now and +5 zanshin and +2 Hasso haste. With the Wakido hands having +71 meva now, and SAM's extremity MEVA gear not being all that hot except its empy+3, putting these on with Empy+3 legs boosts Hasso up to +19% JA haste.
Means 79% delay reduction with just Haste 2.
Thoughts?

I assume a knights of the round set isn't too different from savage blade, except different accessories?
Also are we sure for AE that matb ammo is better than Ghastly Tathlum +1? Magic Damage +21 is a lot.
Also I'd assume Sacro Breastplate for AE?
I hope the AE set isn't assume Nyame on Magic Dmg, or uf it is, I'd prolly consider including a "non magic nyame" set because afaik the vast majority of pld are gonna have WSD nyame path, so alternatives to nyame should be considered.

The community engagement in compiling info wrt abyssea was
finding out what dropped from where
determining what WS work for red and blue proc
and two months of arguing how grellow proc works
none of which is spoiled by data mining
