View Full Version : Sky, HNM, and Einherjar Augments, but no ZNM or Limbus?

This may or may not have been touched upon, but I haven't seen a dedicated thread.
So there are synergy augments for all ABJ gear, which makes sense and is pretty uniform. But why is there nothing for ZNM and Homam/Nashira gear? I mean Kirin's/Byakko's/Genbu's/Seiryu's/Suzaku's all got augments and aren't ABJ gear.
The only reason I can think of why Sky gear has augments and not Limbus/ZNM is the fact that Sky gear has clear items that can be turned in to tatters (Seals -> Scraps) which Limbus nor ZNM have, but there are some pretty easy fixes. 10 ABC = 1 Homam/Nashira Tatter which would be used to augment Homam/Nashira gear. As for ZNM, 10 T1 trophies = 1 ZNM Tatter, 1 T2 = 1 ZNM Tatter, 1 T3 = 5 Tatters, 1 T4 = 10 Tatters, or something along those lines. (Amounts of ABC = Tatters or Trophies = Tatters are irrelevant and only used as examples, obviously the Dev. team would try to balance them.)
Good idea?
Maybe in future updates?
What are your thoughts?

For limbus gear they could use the body parts for tatters, unless they give homam head really good augments it least wouldn't be a trash drop. They could even use the af+1 mats only so many of the af+1s were worth upgrading and people may even have all they want or need so these items are large amount of these items are hitting the floor.
I do like the ZNM idea though.

That could work too, if not better. I just don't understand why it wasn't already implemented with the rest of the Augmentation gear. Maybe instead they are planning on ToM upgrades? I think that's what most people are hoping for Salvage gear anyway.

I still don't get why every endgame content should consist of things that take 5 years to complete, to make sure every player sticks around 50 years and pay SE. I mean, how many of us will actually stick around the whole 50 years it will take to finish the content? I'm going to bail long before my character hits 50 years.

Obviously you're exaggerating, but I agree to some extent. Some of that stuff needs tweaking, but it's not as bad as you say.

Think the sky gear was the easiest to start and see if it works. They might bring salvage gear next when they revamp ToAU content.

I was slightly unclear. I'm not talking just about how long it takes to finish anything, I'm talking about how as soon as people do finish something, someone makes a thread saying "nobody does event X any longer. please add new items so everyone does it again".
I'm a strong believer that content should get cleared, and you should never return to sky again after spending one year there. Well, you can visit one day to get the new player his byakko pants.

Luckily enough for you, assuming you already have it all, you don't have to ever go back. You can buy it all in Jeuno for rather reasonable prices.
