Thread: 2.16 patch notes?

Isn't this all we're getting?

Summoning Bell in Revenant’s Toll
New Features for the Market Boards (Wish List feature, and adjustments on the filters)
Ability to summon minions and mounts at random
Dhorme Chimera and Hydra being added to the Duty Finder
Gear sets will automatically substitute main arm when item is not available
Cooldown timer for timeworn maps to be displayed or adjusted (not clarified)
Crafting stats will affect quick synthesis success rate
Gear dying preview feature
Notification feature for Party Finder
Mog Letter history
New achievement rewards
New feature to reselect focus targets (i.e. Primals after they disappear for certain attacks)
Map marker feature
More action icons for macros
New command to have character look towards the Camera
Characters will appear wet during rainy weather
Potential targets will have a glowing outline when hovering the mouse over them

New feature to reselect focus targets (i.e. Primals after they disappear for certain attacks)

Omg, does that mean we won't have to re-focus a target after it disappears and comes back? If so, this will be a total lifesaver in Twintania phase 4. As a healer, I hate having to stare at people's health bars and then lose focus target on Twintania when she does her first twisters as soon as the phase begins. The distraction to focus her again can sometimes get you or the tank killed... or at least you miss a GCD that can matter for someone who needs healing. This fix is a relief, lol.

I don't think they're really adding much beyond what the maintanance post says about tweaking things for PS4 support. I wouldn't get my hopes up for anything beyond than that.

I wonder if the random minion/mount features will allow you to select which ones you want summoned randomly? I know there's times when I want one of, say, 5, but can't decide which one.

Also...those new achievement rewards...any new mounts/minions there maybe?

To me, 2.16 is pure "meh" and 2.20 isnt a lot better other than the vanity stuff.

More HM dungeons and more new Tomes to grind isnt what I'd call a "good" patch, but I know all the endgame raiders will disagree with me.

There is as much content coming out in 2.2 as was present upon release. More crafting recipes, vanity, more turns of coil, more primal, more dungeons, new tomes, etc etc etc. There is so much stuff coming out I don't know how you aren't excited. If 2.2 isn't enough then perhaps it is simply a loss in interest in the game. As a hardcore endgame raider and one who appreciates crafting/vanity, I'm super pumped for 2.2 b/c atm the game offers nothing,zip,null to do. Now if 2.2 comes out, and my FC or another FC clears ex leviathan & t6-9 within a week or two....we'll have a major problem on our hands.

Hopefully we get a 3rd Retainer with this patch.

I'll take a new class/job over more HM dungeons.
