"Based on the battle balance of recent end-game content, we’ve made adjustments to the maximum HP and MP for each race. The amount was adjusted for each to close the gap between races while still preserving their unique traits.
HP
Based on the maximum HP of Galkas, the other four races’ HP has been increased. With this adjustment, a level 99 Tarutaru will have their maximum HP increased by approximately 300 HP.
MP
Based on the maximum HP of Tarutarus, the other four races’ MP has been increased. With this adjustment, a level 99 Galka will have their maximum MP increased by approximately 250 MP.
Monsters that have stats based on the stats of each race appear in the game, but we’ve limited the effects of this and have only made adjustments to the HP and MP of characters."
Woot! So I guess this means Taru tanks won't be considered as gimp as they were prior to this change? I've just returned to the game (as in, I still haven't done much at all yet aside from creating my character) but I had planned on playing a melee-centric Taru regardless of the HP difference. That said, I'm glad to see that they're now being brought closer in-line with the other races as well. Really made my day.
Would it be sooooo hard for them to actually hire a translator so we get the same posts and updates they get in Japanese as its posted, or at least wait until the translations are ready so we could all get the same information at the same time?
NA and EU players pay to play this game as well and we deserve the same courtesis given the Japanese players. No they don't rate any slack as long as they continue to treat non- Japanese speaking players like second hand citizens
Camate does some of the translations I'm sure, if the localization team doesn't beat him to it. Not sure if they also do double duty or not like the community rep team does. Though they did hint in a pod cast XI and XIV were not the only games they are reps for of SE's.
Wouldn't know if it is for DQX or not. Though it would just mean more people afking at the casino if it did get released for non Japanese reading peoples. Not sure how many people are playing an import.
I have to wonder how so many people don't understand the purpose of a subject line.
