And yet again, its not required though...

Not like anyone that legitimately plays could actually afford a full set with each piece being listed for 700k+

I just hope SE does not always post Patch Note like this, none of it make sense and it can mean anything. I don't know if they do it on purpose or how it get translated, but it definitely need to be better and more specific.


Changes will be made to the way equipment is bound.
No details what so ever how is is changed.

Introducing additional servers and enhancements to act as a countermeasure against the congestion to enter "Amdapor Keep."
Ok good, only one that make sense.

The difficulty for level 50 dungeons will be adjusted.
This could mean one way or the other, it is being nerf? Or is the difficulty being scale up to counter measure against speed runner?

The number of areas where you can acquire Allagan Tomestones of Philosophy and Mythology will be increased as well as the amount you can acquire.
It does not say which Dungeon or where to obtain it. Also when it say Philosophy and Mythology the amount you can acquire will increased, does this mean we are getting a Cap increased, or does it drop more now?

Implementation of a population cap for each field.
More people can be on the same zone, or are they adding a channel?

User interface elements related to materia and target information will be adjusted.
Umm...what?


The patch note is so vague and can mean anything, why even bother posting because it can mean anything? It is like not posting at all.

To me reading that says they are adjusting the tomes caps since its right after the increase part. Dont see where people are getting zone caps.

Could you give me an example? I'm of the impression that a ilvl 70 ring with 5x materia in it is still subpar compared to an ilvl 90 ring.

May want to get used to it being incredibly vague, because they've been doing it all cryptic like that in FFXI for 11+ years now!

Examples ~ just read the latest patch notes:

I believe they mean to make them easier, since 2.1 is coming, and they stated current content would be made easier.

As for the tomes, I think they mean you will be able to get them from more dungeons, and dungeon that do give them (currently) will give out more

Those are not patch notes FYI. They usually put out the detailed notes when the patch is up to download.

Which is not up yet.

Expect them to be vague still but, a bit more detailed lol

Where are the patch notes? They gona apply the patch like now and still no concrete information of what the hot fix is?

I don't think they are the full notes.
He says at the start "I would like to give you an overview of what will be done ahead of time."
An overview is a general review or summary of a subject.
I'm presuming we will get full details some time between now and when the servers are up.
Or shortly after.

don't know about "dungeon difficulty" being changed does it mean harder or easier lol cuz I don't think they needed to be changed at all :P
