SE and their sneaky updates.

not just you Demon...I've noticed a marked increase in the upgrades at times too. Back when I was running for Ketea...seemed like that @#$@# would never upgrade, but since I started doing Lusca a lot, it likes to go back to back a good bit. Whatever happened, I wish they could do a little more of it, as it's not consistent. Maybe it's just been given a funkier range for success or they've done something crazy like tie a tweak into moon phase or something.

Who knows with SE.

I hope it isn't anything to crazy, then again, like you said, who knows with SE. This is the company that thought adding an extremely helpful critical feature to an endgame event that could only be triggered by an emote by a player with current hate, and not telling players about it, was a good idea. Good to know it wasn't just me getting lucky though :) seems my Ochain wont be such a pain afterall!

Well at least the sneaky update is for the betterment of the game - and not some major nerf. Good thing they are still willing to improve the 2 years old content so old its outdated abyssea. Hopefully they will still focusing on tweaking and updating abyssea even after the new expansion is out since it is the best crack ever that grace FFXI.
