Patch 2.5 Preliminary Notes Discussion

Judging from the notes, I'm going to guess the Mystery Trial could be against Lahabrea (or another Ascian).
1) the quest starts in N. Thanalan
2) the achievement: Secret Ascian Man --- Defeat ??? in ???.
3) the auto-translate: Duty --- the void

The name of the mystery trial seems to be "The Chrysalis", in french.

How so? I'm not doubting you but my quick glance over the notes didn't reveal that to me.

I have a similar guess, in that at the end of 2.5 we are going to meet an ascian and solo fight them in the story, and we will get an extreme version.

I just hope that Odin, Gilg X, and the new trial all drop i120-i130 accessories!

The drop rates for the following Extreme primal battle rewards have been increased: 　Aithon Whistle / Xanthos Whistle / Gullfaxi Whistle / Enbarr Whistle / Markab Whistle / Boreas Whistle

getting there!

Alex drop rate is increased if you have animus, novus or nexus AND get gold rank on a successfully cleared FATE
Soulglazing has been increased (probably light values increased)

Oh and Primal mounts drop rates get an other up

Poney poney poney!

・The rate at which soulglazed relic weapons achieve soul attunement has been increased.

-The drop rate for Alexandrite when completing a FATE with a gold rating while equipped with an animus, novus, or nexus weapon has been increased.


How did you miss that?

Lucis stuff for crafter/gatherer huh?

Man...i'll still be way behind on that end. x_x
