    Job Master Gift (2100 JP)

    So, from the update notes:

    The "★Master!" gift has been added.
    This gift is granted when the maximum number of job points has been reached and comes with its own special title and effects.
    Any way we could hear what those "effects" actually are? Are they just the FF5 stars?

    Skudo already did. He didn't report anything obvious other than the stars.

    Yeah I saw him. I saw two people with capped job points on the day of the update. That's pretty impressive. You would need a minimum of 549 job points (plus 1 capacity point) from start of when you first got on after update, to reach 2100. I saw these guys in the evening. Couldn't have possibly been more than 15 hours max after the update. Which would require 36.6 job points per hour. Though even that would have required them to get on pretty quickly after this update which gave a lot of people trouble. I got on pretty early (only 42 people on Carbuncle at the time).

    I guess I've heard that a good party can get 100 JP per hour in some zones. So they could cover that in about 5 and a half hours. I'd still be impressed if they could keep up that momentum for so long and keep so many people together. I tend to get tired of any group activity after about 2 hours.

    I think if you asked ten different players for realistic suggestions of what the 2100 JP gift should be you'd get ten different answers. Some would want something that would change the job's play, some would want a specialized cosmetic change, and I personally would want a bonus that applied across all 99 jobs, compounding with other mastered jobs and encouraging people to keep going.

    Any solution was going to leave some people disappointed, and it's not like this is the end of the world (even if -15 minutes from SP abilities is literally worthless: it doesn't open up any new strategies for any job), nor is it even the most disappointing dropped ball this update (lol Emporox), but yeah. Sucks.

    Could've just gone with the other benchmark points like the 100 and 1200 again. Or instead of -15 min make it 15 min.

    First off make sure you have all CP bonuses you can possibly get, all missions done for 10% CP bonus from each expansion story missions. the 48% or whatever it is from doing the lair, colonization and wildskeeper reive Records of Eminence, a CP cape, be it 25/30% from Aptitude Mantle/+1 or up to 50% from Mecistopins Mantle in Incursion. Chuck in COR roll for an additional CP bonus, Qultada will do COR roll if you have a current dedication effect.

    That and making use of the CP campaigns since you get 2-3x the CP.

    Actual totals:

    * +90% from KIs in Chapter 3 of RoV
    * +80% from RoEs on completing each mission line (10% per - Bastok, San d'Oria, Windurst, RotZ, CoP, ToAU, SoA, RoV)
    * +10% from RoEs on doing two lair reives in each zone that has them (10 zones at 1% apiece)
    * +28% from RoEs on doing two colonization reives in each zone that has them (14 zones at 2% apiece)
    * +18% from RoEs on doing wildskeeper reives (6 at 3% apiece)
    Total in static effects: +226%

    After adding in Trizek/Facility Ring, COR roll, and a CP cape, the theoretical maximum boost before campaigns is +450% (meaning right now, in a maxed-out situation, you would be getting at least 11x the CP per kill that you otherwise would - if you're just going after stuff solo that's relatively easy to kill, that still drops it to around 25-30 kills per job point).

    I'm hoping there's something more, I don't know if SE reps read the community sites other than this one, but a lot of people are expressing disappointment at the 2100 gifts because unlike previous updates there's no new spells, or job changing gifts. Restting 1 hour in MMM wasn't super difficult now, and revitalizers are also only 3k silt now. What I think is disappointing most people and also myself is that all jobs got the same thing, which feels generic and rushed, unless there's some other effect not listed in the patch notes. Don't get me wrong this update is huge, and has a lot to offer, just for myself an many others the 2100 gifts were one of the things we most looked forward to and these are a let down. Some people are fine with it and the other gifts are very potent (38 attack and def for avatar is huge you know?) just was hoping for something job specific and job changing for the final gifts. My LS and I would make jokes about things like "COR gets a pirateship and can dualwield" and there were many hype threads about it and all over I saw people throwing ideas out there for what the final gifts might be. Just wondering if there's something SE didn't list in the patch notes or maybe plans they haven't disclosed, I know that'd make a lot of people happier with the update as it's a big deal to people... their jobs. I'm happy, but the final gifts are disappointing to me and others.
