March 2014 Version Update Changes

Wasn't that kind of the point though, these 119s should be sort of sidegrade-ish to other 119s. Original Delve was just way inflated because they released it when there was very little post 99 gear to compete with it. SE already admitted they may have pushed original Delve/119 content out a little early so it overshadowed the intended progression from 99 through steps of item level gear.

At this point when we have weapons from Delve 1.0, high tier missions, Skirmish 3, WKR/RoE stuff, 119 RME... well, of course new 119 weapons probably shouldn't be blowing your existing collection out of the water. It's 75cap land again with a bigger array of sidegrade options.

You are right about that, though a lot of it also stems from the adds in the area as well as idiots (I am not leaving myself out here) who try and be a hero....

I just tend to dislike any mob whom I have personally died to at least forty times.

In one WKR.

What I honestly want to see is if standard pt setup can be played with....I /like/ playing RUN, for instance.

Phlox Yggzi Bead? I bet they drop after you kill this guy here.

you mean 2mp/tick, since you can dual weild this + owleyes and get the +10PDT taken from it, taking away genboob shield with -10pdt

BLU can't use Owleyes

WHM rarely subs NIN. The 75% mp is the latent trigger for oneiros grip. I don't think I want to risk taking +10% DMG on WHM.

I understand that bro, but I guess I'm looking at it from a "Content Level progression" standpoint. If all of these zones were released at the same time, I would just keep quiet. But because they purposely made Morimar/Foret/Ceizak seem like lower content zones (for WKR, Colonization reives, and even monster level), I was kind of hoping the new delve would be higher content, as well as rewards that reflected that level.

They gave us the impression that the 3 starter zones (lol) were of one specific level, and that the more recent ones would be much higher on the Content scale. But if the rewards are just sidegrades to lower level content, or in some cases, not worth shooting for at all, Thats kind of a bummer.

i will admit, I;m happy for the jobs who didnt get 119s previously to finally get some items. There are at least some items for jobs that get some shine here and there. Just didn't think the content level for delve (or new zone delves) match the items.

Uh... can someone post the new Job Point Merits up here :o

Yea but that being said Buukki the new Delve armor looks a lot better than the 1.0 sets.

All I have to say is the BLU Job Points...

Blue Magic Point Bonus - Increases the Maximum Number of Blue Magic Points (1/per)

So much yes.

The Job Points better be worth a damn because it sounds like they're going to be a pain the *** to collect.

Touche. I'm being a little picky, I'll shush.

Pending augments Qaaxo harness has potential...would be nice to replace Thaumas with something ilvl.

Might as well sub /smn, so no, I still mean +1mp/tick only above 75% mp

It's really nice that they continue to improve the AI of Trust NPCs but if they could fix some of the PUP AI issues that would be fantastic.

I don't think you'll be able to stun the Thunder and Earth Naakuals very easily lol.


I don't ever recall them stating new delve would be a higher level, and the focus going forward has been expressly stated as "we're staying at 119" for well into the foreseeable future. ilvl gear damn near killed this game, so don't go looking for them to go past 119 any time soon unless the plan if to pack it in and call it a day for FFXI.

Anyone make any progress on Cait Sith?

Was my first thoughts when I saw this, but would need some more QA augments or something additional to compete in high acc scenarios. Something like double attack/Triple attack dmg+ or something.

Working on it as we speak.

One of the first Key Items to get is near a tree in Ronfaure (S) just outside the zone to San d'Oria (S). An LS mate is still trying to find the other two in Beaucedine (S) and Jugner (S).

Well then. New delve might be interesting... Marjami T5:

Job Points are *** terrible.

I almost hope that stun will be less relevant.

I hate being a stun sch. </3

Here you go

JP for cor are pretty good.

Other jobs...not so much. I laughed at Mijin damage.

First Key item for Cait Sith Avatar quest:

East Ronfaure (S) (H-7) - Breath of Dawn

Also with the conversion rate of EXP:CP these should have been much, much better.

Where do these come from? o. o

Second key item:





Jugner Forest (S) (I-6)

(Just logically following a path if you run from East Ronfaure (S) to Jugner (S), and then now onto Batallia Downs (S) then Beaucedine (S)...)

The new Delve NMs outside or you can buy them from Delve Taru NPC once you've defeated the NM

Delve nm augmentable gear(notice how it doesn't have the rare tag).
