Idk why anyone was expecting anything dramatic though. I think it was clear from their comments that this was not going to be much more than adjusting core stat values to align more with empy.

That being said, there are some errors noted with the patch notes with items being called +5. So... we're probably getting +5 and maybe that will adjust other stats; as I'm given to understand this is isn't the entire Limbus update.
I also do not really enjoy spells being tied to specific pieces of gear, however, I would take it over not getting the new spell at all.

We were expecting something dramatic because we have history to look to in empyrean gear. +1 > +2 was massive. far better than AF/Relic +3>+4.
AF & Relic are mostly relegated to macro swaps for specific actions and little else because they are bad to sit around in. I like many, was expecting not only minor buffs to stat/accs/evas but also additional things added to the gear. Some PDL/DA/TA/QA/sTP etc added to things and maybe add magic crit II+ to some mage pieces since that's only on a single item currently.

More than anything, I wanted to see pet jobs get a handout since Nyame is still [Rare] and we still can't change the path in Rabao.
