Roadmap for October 2011 "Relic"

[Krashport]

2011

October
The next installment in the upgrades for relic equipment are scheduled for introduction this month.

I have a feeling that we're just going to be getting another " Scrap" we just throw Said -1 into a synergy furnace, Then use said " Scrap" w/ our N/HQ to have it augmented... I'm starting to see a trend here.. anyone else!?

Could be.. i wonder if this is the "Relic +2" they were talking about a few weeks ago. Weird how differently they're wording it though. With synergy and synthesis caps rising, i wouldn't doubt these being a craftable upgrade.

I've noticed out of the HQ Vs the NQ, Gets better augments "Sky" gear
Just to name one out of many:

Dalmatica
DEF: 45 "Magic Def. Bonus" +5
Adds "Refresh" effect
Enhances "Resist Paralyze" effect
Converts 50 HP to MP
Lv. 73 WHM / BLM / RDM / BRD / SMN

Augment: Quick Magic +1%

----------------------------------------------------

Dalmatica +1
DEF: 46 "Magic Def. Bonus" +6
Adds "Refresh" effect
Enhances "Resist Paralyze" effect
Converts 55 HP to MP
Lv. 73 WHM / BLM / RDM / BRD / SMN

Augment: Quick Magic +3%

Just naming one possible Augment.

----------------------------------------------------

Also a thought, How would this work or effect the NQ Vs HQ Relic gear if they use this system. FYI, I'm just assuming this as a possible augment..

Assassin's Armlets
DEF: 16 HP +7 CHR +5 Enmity +3

"Treasure Hunter" +1
Lv. 75 THF

Augment: Extends "Bully duration+1"

----------------------------------------------------

DEF: 17 HP +26 CHR +5 Enmity +4

"Treasure Hunter" +1
Lv. 75 THF

Augment: Extends "Bully duration+3"

Pretty sure those upgrades are what we voted on, and if I remember correctly static augments won the vote.

Oh so its more like trade said Relic N/HQ to Magian Moogle to post Trial; Complete said Trial! I see... also could you point me in the right direction to this static augments vote "we" had, I've looked everywhere... o.o;

Yeah static was pretty conclusive, which I look forward to.

But as recent history shows. Even if 99% of the population votes for something... SE is going to flip you the bird and say "You didn't want that, you wanted this thing you voted against!"

I swear the recent logic of SE is like sending a band of meth heads to your house to rape you and just say "Hey at least you got laid!" as their answer to why they did it....

They already said they would be fixed stat upgrades in the giant thread on this subject about a month ago. We were supposed to have relic gear augments right now but people grabbed the pitchforks and torches and started making noise so they changed their plans. The god gear and abjuration gear augments were hugely unpopular and SE apparently got the message this time.

[Krashport]

Can't help to wonder what some of those "Fixed" Augments would be. Do time will tell I guess, Unless we could talk a Dev into giving us something to look forward to..
