Full patch notes are here

I see alot of weathered armor, wonder how we are gonna get those.

Sooooo much stuff in this patch x__X() I need to get my ass started on all those hard modes and CT thingies or I'll be left behind like a lala in a running competition.

Ok, SE put the bonus for tanks in things that we usually enter in pre made partys.


So it won't help at all with the to alliviate the long queue. Nice XD

I read over the notes and didn't see any mention of what dungeons or trials are going to drop what tomes and how many? Curious to see if they reduce the amount of myth from coil 1 turns now that it's unlocked or if they change anything with CT tomes now that loot in there is unlocked and Philo tomes are no more.

Either from dungeons (like the ones currently found in DD or WP), or through quests, I'd guess.

WP, AK, CT, Main Story duties, primals hard, etc. Maybe i'm not a "hardcore tank", but i'm a tank! ; ; )

Pretty much only the most insane dungeons/primals.. :P

I am assuming those are the Gerolt Masterworks armors, I see nothing else on the list at i100, there are 6 different kinds (tank,healer,caster,mnk,lnc,brd), and there are no recipies to upgrade them in the Master Recipe section.
So it looks like we buy the weathered with Soildery and then upgrade it in some fashion

So much for my plan to do the first guildhest 200 times. Why did the bear have to be a tank mount? I just wanted to ride a bear. Oh well maybe we will get a slightly different on like the goobue.

Are they really trying to Thank "seasoned" tanks or to troll them?

no job changes at all?

200 extremes / coil as PALADIN/WARRIOR for the mount ? wth? , and that was the solution from SE to bribe players to tank? lmao

It does say "As of 2.2", so maybe it will retroactively count earlier stuff for tanks who've been doing all the 8-mans before 2.2.

Edit: So wait, I guess mount collectors will just be grinding myth tomes on their DPS, i90ing their tank, and grinding turns 1 and 2?

Wait, is that excluding all the other dungeons in the game? I have a Warrior that I've been playing for quite a while, yet I never brought it into those fights... I mean, I'll get it eventually, but that kinda sucks :( Now I have to wait for my bear... And I've barely even started Paladin >_>

Long term goals are good though. I was kinda hoping I could spam guildhests lol

This is what i'm hoping: "ok, 8man duties and primals hard count as high-end level duties. ALSO, we're adding XXXXXXX as high-end".

ARR Edition PS4.... *drool*

Read the notices about maintenance times when they're there. Especially when they're 25 hours long.

I'm 100% sure that the Tank mount achievement includes all lvl50 content, just that they are adding Extremes/Coil to that achievement as well, otherwise they would be excluding over half the community who prefer to run lvl50 dungeons over raids. They aren't rewarding just raiding tanks but all 50 tanks. This would make sense as they want to encourage more tanks to do dungeons and raiding at lvl50, not one or the other.

I just got my alt to 50 warrior so I will look forward to completing this achievement one day. Same goes for my main who is healer but might take up moonlighting as a tank in dungeons for the achievement as well!

Maybe you don't, but other people do :) I prefer a 1 handed weapon for BLM personally.

Yeah, BLM's with shields are sooooo coool.


. . .:confused: Really? Haha. Well, I guess that anyone is free to like whaever he wants. But most people don't like to wield shields with their BLMs and WHMs

Damnit! No craftable Rings, Earrings, etc....

Surprised there is no comments on this little line in the patch notes.

Additional retainers can be purchased via Optional Services.

Players may purchase up to two additional retainers. The purchase of an additional retainer will apply to all characters on a single account. However, a single retainer cannot be shared between characters on a single service account.

If I read this correctly, doesn't this mean shared storage between multiple characters

If you read it correctly, it doesn't mean shared storage between multiple characters, in fact they state that is not shared...

You're reading it wrong. Bolded the relevant portion. It just means you don't have to buy a 3rd retainer on each individual character. Charcter 1's 3rd retainer is still separate from Character 2's 3rd retainer, just like their first 2 retainers are.

You got that right :) I hated losing my shield when I had to get more endgame like the relic weapon and garuda's van and such. ;)

Which can also be read (since they have the option) of multiple character accounts and single character accounts per server.

It's still good to dream ;P

I didn't interpret it in that way, but English isn't my first language so ...
Anyway I do hope you're right. I'm not a tank, but I know lots of people who deserve it and I'm not sure they meet that 200 high duty requirements

Interesting to see the new gear labeled as weathered pieces at ilvl 100 and then non-weathered at 110. I would assume this is part of the Gerault's masterworks collection.

So, we can purchase the original Relic weapon now for use with Glamours...... that's awesome right there. It also makes it so we can have our original Relic and not worry about the new Zodiac quest changing the look.

I will guess for the looks, because that would be the only logical answer.

I'm kind of confused on what a previous poster said about buying relics. Can anyone clarify? Not that it affects me as I have all 5 of my relics, but still would like some clarification.

Ouch, looks you gambled and lost.

I thought boat making was supposed to be in 2.2. Did I think wrong?
