[dev1003] Abyssea Adjustments (more Empyrean whining, whaaaat??? /facepalm)

[svengalis]

Like others have said, I hope this doesn't mean that we'll have to bring more people along to guarantee various weakness procs. I think a good solution would be to have weakness trigger-able by the old set of standards, plus something from a new set at the same time. Example = Aolean Edge being interchangable with cyclone for a red trigger. I'm aware of that particular example being useless, but it was the only thing I could think of at the time. (Better example is Tachi: Yukikaze being interchangable with Freezebite)

That really doesn't make any sense to me. People would just get the more popular jobs and just forget about the others. I like how they are doing now where they are trying to make every job seem important.

Then you should probably bill them as "New Battlefields and, oh yeah, seals", rather than "More ways to get seals! and some gear and junk". How you present information can be as important as what the information actually is.

As it is you've painted a nearly negligible aspect as being the basis for these new battlefields existence. No one is going to be flocking to these things for a chance at 0~1 seals, so that should have been a side note, not the main thrust.

Sorry you feel that it was misleading the first time, Daremo. Each time we post official info, we strive to present all the details accurately. As always, we'll keep an eye out in the future to make sure things are put in the proper perspective.

Hopefully the post from Camate will go a long way to avoid any confusion going forward!

As seals currently weigh heavy on the minds of many, I can understand the desire to set that out front. Such things happen. Please continue to do your best, as I, and hopefully the playerbase, will try to read your words clearly and without misapprehension. Thank you for your hard work.

So, new battlefields? Sounds like our Kindred's Crest and High Kindred's Crests are finally going to have a purpose.

LMFAO 40 k crests for seal u can't use i see the flaming comin now hahaha

Empyrean +2 items will be made obtainable from notorious monsters in additional Abyssea areas as follows:

* Heroes of Abyssea area items will also appear in Scars of Abyssea.
* Scars of Abyssea area items will also appear in Vision of Abyssea.

this could be good ovni or brair and other red trigger mobs (ki pops) needed to spawn end bosses dropping seals or +2 items might actually get more people together easier for pops for glavoid etc

Realize that the developers have some wish to have something to unveil, so they don't want to list every single detail of a planned whatever. By the same token, if the developers wish feedback from the playerbase to help flesh out ideas and the like prior to implementation the playerbase needs enough detail to comment intelligently on what is in the works.

It's a difficult line to walk, I know, and I don't envy anyone the task.

I hope they have some really good stuff planned outside abyssea
