1) You haven't seen the data mining yet, could be JSE.
2) They nerfed the hate on 95% of all spells and they cleaved enmity accrued from melee damage by 70%, the only things that kept their enmity are JAs and a few spells like Flash/Reprisal. By halving the enmity on most things in the game, that's the same as doubling RUN and PLD's effectivness. If you double something and halve everything else, whatever you doubled is now 4x as potent by comparison.

"The type of reive and their coordinates within an area are now announced via system messages whenever one commences."
Woo. As someone who's been doing reives like crazy, this is what probably sparked my enjoyment the most. Was definitely needed.

I am actually impressed with the amount and quality of the changes. I can't wait to see how much enmity all the spells they listed cause now.
It actually looks like they were doing something and not just giving us another dry bone for the next 4 months :|
And whats up with the synergy recipes requiring 3 abdhaljs honors?

If it follows suit with how usual Abjuration gear gets augmented then some things may still need to be HQ anyway.

Kinda lame they only buffed those jobs, was looking forward to new 2hrs and new JAs/Spells for every job.

At least the NQ's for nearly every item won't be completely useless and outclassed by already available items. Now all we need is for mats to become available a bit more so not only the AH bots can get them.

Petty thing for most but where are the quivers for the new ammos!!

Glad I saved all my abjs and got NQ pieces for the extra abjs. Mats are still rare and expensive as f-ck.
Now to find some honors.

75 cursed gear NQ augments are like 1-2 different than HQ. So Hexed Gambies could potentially still get +8-9% crit dmg for example

Anyway, remember they said the major update will be in june, so we should expect the expansion for run and geo and new missions by then, at least I think so. Along with monstrosity, mog garden, and stuff.

They didn't include JSE in the details post.
Also, RUN lacks the damage mitigation/defense to tank much of anything.

Give me Ragnarok!!!
They could use this before the update.
RUN never could equip Khloros before, I tossed my because RUN didn't get it while I was lvling up.
Showed up run on mine. I just never used.
No, no it didn't. POIDH

Could've been spectral jig II.
Which arguably... could've been more useful :x

From what I'm getting, Chocobo Jig II will be the same movement speed as the first, just makes it AoE.

They're letting you Augment NQ hexed gear, which was HQ exclusive until now.

Movement speed amount increases the fewer visible pieces of equipment the DNC has on

The ingredients for hexed gear is about to explode as crafters buy them all up in preparation for every average joe wanting NQ hexed stuff now. NQ hexed was 500k-2m prepatch now expect NQ hexed to be like 40-50m lol with honors going for 2m+

Does a Galka DNC give the ability to make everyone run at flee speed when they run in the opposite direction of the DNC ?!
