Ok...let me level with you here SE...

I still say you're buying those items at your own risk when the trial hasn't been implemented in the game, and it's still uncertain what the amount will be - for each or just one stage, who knows.

Wow the devs are pretty damn clueless. FFXI in its current state should not have long, strenuous, time sink trials that benefit one person. They really just don't get it.

Also, an update is supposed to be an update. Gimping the hell out of everything and upgrading (very minuscule upgrades) stupid abilities that go unused is not an update. Players should be saying "Oh cool something new!" instead of "Oh god please don't gimp anything...".

Anyways, I hear SWTOR is great btw.

SWTOR is pretty bad, play RIFT

Nope that would be true if http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...Version-Update wouldnt been posted

They also initially posted 1k items, and then 20...both times have since been met with "this is temporary, it'll change"

Last time I did ADL he has 3 clones out, so thats 25% chance of guessing correctly.

actually you have a 33.3% chance of picking right the first time and a 50% if your first guess was incorrect, now i might be doing this wrong but pretty sure this is a compounding probability. so .33 * .5 = 16.5% or i'm just tired and need to eat some food.

Also peeps should just add attomic_troll to thier ignore lists, its clear he is either retarded or likes instigating people.

Thats if the clones pop and you fight till you kill the real one. To my understanding, when one ADL dies, it respawns with new clones. Of course, to my understanding as well, it was always 1 real 1 fake...so it very well could be when the real ADL is the last one standing, it spawns new clones.

yeah just looked it up due to some one saying that, i didnt realize he could keep spawning clones... thats total crap also thats not correct math its more like .5^x where is x the amount of times you get a clone...

What part you dont understand?

Trial WILL use those items so go collect them at REAL SERVER.
Trial is not finished yet so NUMBER of those items required might change so we only put it at TEST SERVER for now.

Still dont understand?

[Nynja]

You've been buying marrows knowing they only come from ADL and honestly expected the trial to require 1k / 20? lol... baaaaa

The only items I can see justified buying in advance were emp ones, because item generation was ok, and price shouldnt really change much with demand.

They said the trial is delayed but those items WILL be used to upgreade those weapons. That goes to real server not test server.

Ofc you can say that they still will be used for upg... to stage 2 but thats obviously trolling.
If no those update notes or those items just introduced in test server you would be right but its not the case.

You said it yourself. The items that they introduced in advance are used for the stage 2 upgrade, so they're not lying (if they don't implement them for stage 1), nor are they trolling anyone who isn't stupid enough to start buying/farming them in advance.

*New Magian trials for Relic, Mythic, and Empyrean weapons have been delayed to allow time for proper balancing.
They are scheduled to be introduced to the test server in the near future and implemented in the release version in an additional version update.
The items required for the trials, however, have been introduced in advance in this version update.

He's right, nothing in there specifies the items being specifically for stage 1 or 2. Sorry bro, u lose, good day sir.
