Next relic is "Nexus". Soulglazing ahead!

To detract from all the personal housing negativity, I'll post my likes about the patch:

Guaranteed Oils/Sands of Time drops in Syrcus Tower - What? Guaranteed?!? That's crazy good!
When using Return from the main menu or cross hotbar, recast time will now be displayed - Finally, it's back! I've been missing this since they redesigned the micro menu months ago!
Two new UI scaling increments (90% and 110%) have been added - Been waiting for this! Sometimes 100% is too big, but 80% is too small. 90% will be great!
Additional places we can use the "Try On" subcommand (such as examined characters and our inventory)
Additional places we can use the "Search for Item" subcommand (such as our inventory)
On maps and minimaps, character icons will now be displayed with priority over other icon types - FINALLY! I know this sound like a small quality of life change, but for me, it's HUGE. When questing with my husband, I often look on the minimap to see where he's run off to. Often, he's standing at a quest giver, but I can't see his dot on my mini-map because quest icons are covering it. With character icons taking priority, I will no longer be constantly asking him, "Where are you?" Thanks SE!!!

NEW MAIL MOOGLE QUESTS

Also really curious about what that new dye category's all about.

**MrKupo** · 09-16-2014 04:14 PM

Carrier Missions!
More poses to make the world feel even more alive!

**Nandalowell** · 09-16-2014 04:14 PM

"Players can now ride mounts within residential districts." /huzzah

I also can't wait to slap some kneecaps.

*edit* And yes! Idle animations with unsheathed weapons!! >

And more moogle quests!

Honestly the only other thing I wanted outta this patch was more Hildy.. I know he's only in bigger patches though.. ; ;

I have to admit I am actually quite happy about smaller things like the weather forecast and teleport UIs. It may be just me, but I can't count the number of times ive ported to blackbrush instead of bentbranch or vice versa. And the lack of text alignment at the skywatcher made me flinch,

**Morningstar1337** · 09-16-2014 04:26 PM

Man something tells me that is Yoshi logs in the game he will experience what's it's like to be elite mark when hunt were implemented

**Andres_Lonegrief** · 09-16-2014 04:29 PM

No changes to the drop rate of mats in dungeon. Disappointing.
But the small changes they are adding are nice.

However, the only thing that might really interest me is Ramuh Ex adding to DF.

**kyuven** · 09-16-2014 04:35 PM

Necessary for all patches, in every game, across all genres, everywhere:

Anyway, I'm pretty pleased. Housing "meh"-ness aside the sands/oils and Ramuh change are quite welcome.
