Looks like the Ilm armor set is a full armor set.

Wiki is done, looks like we will get multiple months of this new armor. Maybe after we will get a heavy armor and light armor set too kind of like how they did it with the mog bonanza exclusive armor.

I looked up the shovels for the umpteenth time and was reminded yet again how useless they really are.

Just did Lilith on VE with a 5/5 Malignance THF, and went 1/1 on a Malignance box. Sent the hands to my alt character on the same account afterwards who still needed them, and popped the chest afterwards to get another pair of hands, lol.

It is usual of SE to release the Armor after years of torturing players.. Lilith gear is pretty old now, but still relevant/important.. I think its a worthy and a very routine thing for them to finally stop torturing players who are 0/thousands on the armor they are missing.. I was 1/1200 on the Legs myself a few years ago vs many of my friends who got 5/5 in less than 15 runs... It was incredibly annoying.. but still the system was better than Oseem's Augment RNG Lottery system which was pure cancer.. lol

Congrats and enjoy the Malignance Gear that you were missing! ^_^)y

Ran 8 Lilith's on Easy as thief with TH9-11 each kill, 0 Malignance Box drops. Assuming drop rate is not increased BUT instead combined into a single item.

how do these people always break things unrelated to the contents of the patch??


inb4: the sortie re-enter code was tied to imprimatur timing code

They said they found some bug in the blitzers that caused some black screen, I just assumed it was related to that

Operator NPC's still arent listing NM kill counts (idk why I expected such a simple thing), but then I noticed something missing.




Do the chests not spawn unless you have a temp / all temp items?

That's the starting area. It never had chests, unless I'm blind.

Chests are on the top floors of every tower (and other floors I'm forgetting).

Plot twist: FFXI was entirely written using GOTO.

On a side note, halving imprimateur generation time increase the hope of them also halving the expected time for the other PREMA weapons, like the primes

Last week I had the worst luck in Sortie. Couldn't stay connected (like 5 disconnects in a span of 20 minutes) but was online playing no issues all day earlier. Ended up with G shard but then kept getting a message that I couldn't enter G boss. Another player got a full black screen when trying to enter G at the same time. A few days earlier, all of our group was teleporting/lagging with like a 5 second latency delay. I still get phantom chests that float but are untargetable, having to run out of range and back (same with bitzers and doors). I also continue to see chests several minutes after they are opened. The zone is completely riddled with bugs.

just wanna say I love that they changed the menu position for mog garden nodes to try multiple times, but it still is likely to only actually use one attempt. classic

the issue with "multiple" is if that node only has 1, it can only do 1

The trick to getting around this is always have the buffs up. Oil/mold. It forces the same node and can't change. So the full 7 will always be the full 7 in one click. (until the buffs wear, then you have to reapply and go twice)

Rockoil and Leafmold are good for like.... 3 days. Worth.

I always get 2 days out of a rockoil/leafmold. Then i just re-up it so I never have to click thsoe more than once.

I don't get "Repair the tools" though so I don't get random extra attempts.

Glad they listened to the player's frustrations those key first couple weeks adoulin dropped, to bring us updates in a timely manner like this

The imprim time is still far too long, Now takes about 3 months instead of 6. Adoulin is over 12 years old at this point so I don't see why it should remain so high still.

180 minutes is *** insulting.

The time between the release of SoA and the coalition cooldown reduction is longer than the gap between the release of Mythic weapons and when Rhapsodies reduced the Assault timer to 10 minutes. It’s also longer than the time between the release of Relic weapons and when Dynamis became infinitely farmable.

Just let coalitions be spammable.
