95 And Below RME Weapons

[FrankReynolds]

I never used windows 7 either (looking to upgrade my vista box soon.) I do have to say that the tiles looks like a huge waste of effort for me, since I only have a few icons on the desktop and in the start menu anyway. Whatever I can't start -> run I just navigate to the folder and run it that way.

I just pin everything to the task bar like the clip below. I rarely ever use the start menu for anything besides (get ready for it...) shutting the computer down. One of the things I like about 8 is that the task bar can be shown on every monitor so that you don't have to mouse across multiple screens to get to something ( I have 4 monitors at work).

Yeah but I really don't like clutter. I dont want 10 things pinned to the taskbar. To each his own though. Turns out my sister's laptop has windows 8 and after playing around with it a bit I didnt much care for it. I suppose its one of those things that'll be fine once you get used to it. I'm generally more of a "If its not broke, don't fix it" kind of person though.

So how do you start -> run then? Is there a run app?

And now to give you a good answer to this question.
Windows key + r will open your 'Run' box.

And here's some other options.

After reading the proposed adjustments and finding out that only the 99-iterations of RME's will be boosted to compete viably with the new Delve weapons, I must say I'm a little worried. These weapons take time to get and not everyone can take them to 99 (especially in the case of empyrean weapons). So if one has a level 85 or 90 empyrean, it's just gonna be the end of the line for us?

I wield an Almace-90 and I love the thing. I obviously don't expect the damage to receive a boost to equal to that which the 99-variants are receiving, but it would be very nice if it received at least some boost (making the Base Damage somewhere from 90~100 would be nice). Also, if weapons that are 95 and below are not to receive this boost, will there be plans to make it easier to upgrade them?

I agree that the 95> 99 upgrades especially are stupid hard/annoying to get while the delve items are stupid easy to get.. which is completely unfair.. If anything the 95> 99 trials need to be changed! Me and my husband are more casual players now so we dont have time to get in an "ls" to ADL to get marrows for our relics.. so instead we began farming dynamis all over again.. the amount of gil it will cost us to buy them is pretty much rebuilding a new one from 0> 95 all over again, the delve weapons make it so damn tempting to just say screw this after all the hard work we had done to make them on our own.. and it truly sucks. Even with the "boost" that they will receive it will still be outrageously unfair.. all you need to get a base delve weapon is one key item.. oh and plasma f course.. bur R/e/M owners have to work tirelessly to get the same type of damage? its ridiculous! I know why SE had to make them that good because lets face it, if they were not that good no one would bother doing the new content.. but R/E/M completion needs to be adjusted.. no question about it.

And people will wine and moan that "i got it to 99 this way you can too" and yea we probably could but same was said about the old 75 relics when dynamis got overhauled they had a fit, but it opened the doors for more people to enjoy building something because a game is meant to be enjoyed..

Has anyone even considered the effect of delve on empy upgrades? Now that "everyone" is doing delve, the number of people/linkshells doing VW on a regular basis has all but stopped. All day only 1 english speaking VW shout at all yesterday (2 JPs were doing Providence) - and that wasn't for a significant HMP dropping mob.
So this will make 99ing an empy even more of a task than before. Less HMP and riftdross/riftcinder in circulation ect, ect.

Going back to farming plasm, discuss.....

Ruhi, go back into your post, replace all instances of "empy upgrades" with "relic upgrades" and all instances of "Delve" with "Abyssea."

Just wait until they release the "level 120" gear for BST/DNC and go solo Voidwatch.

VW will pick up again when the IL of emps etc is raised. Especially if it involves unlocking the weaponskills for all weapons.

Did they change their plans? I didn't see anything about needing to do VW to get the weapon skills. I thought they were going to be linked to the WOE weapons.

They are for WoE, VW will not be impacted for that reason.
