I think that's what players hyped it up to be. They explicitly said the Main Scenario would be split up into two major parts, nowhere did they say content was to be split too.

Darn. Was kinda hoping they'd surprise us with some new RMT spam countermeasures after taking into account the numerous suggestions offered by people on the forums. Hopefully next time :)

Hm, mostly just disappointed that poetics are still locked and I am kinda unsure why :/

I might actually have been able keep myself busy gearing all my jobs to i130 for 3 months since I like to collect gear if poetics were unlocked, hm...I can get stuff from FCOB but not everything in FCOB is BiS so meh. I hope they planning to unlock them soon so I'll have more stuff to do.

Yeah, this was pretty much the only thing I was looking forward to, ie. BiS-fying my offspecs and enjoying the FCoB farming for a few weeks whilst getting the non-Dreadwyrm BiS pieces with my tomes... Oh well, still something to do for a bit at least.

Hopefully the actual new main scenario quests are nice at least.

The music played when riding the magitek armor and gilded magitek armor mounts has been changed.
New music has been added.

I hope this means a remixed version of Terra's theme!!!!!

Part 2 is in reference to the story, not some major super mega uber content patch.
2.55 IS quite a bit bigger than all the other .x5s so far, though.

That said, I'm disappointed they haven't actually fixed the primary problem with the TT tournaments: Choosing your opponent.

The new magitek song is Terra's song, the developer blog confirmed it.

Ya that is true! I was just hoping it was an "event(s)" like they said, unless I am remembering wrong. Just expecting the end of 2.0 to be bit more then 2 hours worth of story (Which I am sure will be good tho at least) T_T Is gonna be a long 3 months haha.

They still didn't fix the TT nor did anything to address the RMT situation too, that makes me sad :(

I don't even know where people got this idea that 2.55 would have an "event" in it. All they said was that it would draw the 2.0 story to a close.
The RMT issue I can understand since it's not something you can go at half-assed. There's no perfect solution...though right click->report is something they SHOULD add, they'd have to set up the CS clients to be able to receive them soooo...

I just hope their infrastructure maintenance fixes whatever happened on the 23rd, cause i know myself and others have had connections like crap!

I bet this is yoshida regarding RMT issues: Yoshida sees rmt/posts about rmt -> slams head to desk -> ask the people in charge about it -> they answer its a wild goose chase -> yoshida slams head to the desk again -> smokes 3 packs of cigarretes -> tries to calm people down even if he is becoming bald with the problem.

still blows my mind how long the game has been out and people still say TOMBstone and not TOMEstone.

They could at least have added new items to desynth...

The "new" artisan gear from Talan in mor dhona, so people with LTW/WVR could also get Mastercraft demis (not that i care, i have BSM and GSM who were and still are the best ones to farm those, but more options are always nice). Same for Ehcatl gloves.

Also, the soldiery, high allagan and leviathan/ramuh/shiva gear should have been desyntesizable by now, I wonder why it's not the case?

If they are removing the lockouts on WoD and FcoB, which are still kinda new, why not remove the lockout of Beast Tribe quests too?
Or at least remove the daily lockout of at least Sylphs and Almajah that have been out for over a year now so people can catch up?

The reason for Ramuh, shiva, and HA is because the highest level adventuring gear we can desynth is i100 (crafted gear doesn't count).
What *I'd* like is to be able to turn them in for seals. I have a whole bunch of Wave weapons waiting to be turned in.

Also for the beast tribed, they CANNOT have the Ixali unlocked or else it would obliterate the artisan's equipment market by making it too cheap to produce.
Sylph and the others, though, maybe. Or at least give them separate lockouts.

Why has no one mentioned the Ishgard fight yet? You're all still talking about Poetics caps!

It sounds like quite a brave move, making a dungeon that you can die on but have the fight continue without you. Instead of having a big boss that resets his HP when you're not around, we have to defend the bridge against a draconian onslaught and ensure that various constructs along it aren't destroyed. Now that sounds like an immensely tense and fun battle. I'm really looking forward to running the story and fighting some dragons!

And encrypted tomes added to Archmagus! That'll make it easier to get decent weaponry for all my jobs!

I plan on leveling my crafters, do 3 zetas(brd, pld, sch), max those 3 classes' gear, and sb like hell, in that 3 month window.

except you still need to save your poetics for 3 weeks (and longer if you still want poetic gear for other jobs)

not unlocking poetics was silly.

The step of faith fight sounds like the 3rd dark falz in PSO2 fight where your fight is not against who dies first but more against killing him before he breaches the last defense. (He had insanely more hp than the other ones and hitted harder because you could respawn but you respawned at the beginning of the map)

Gives you enough time to get your tome and your carbontwine to unlock the weapon once you've obtained it.

Hey just be thankful the patch actually has story content alongside minor QoL fixes. As opposed to just adding a token to sell for gold or buy for gold to use as game time.

Im probably being pessimistic here but the only thing i can think of is that if this trial is too easy, alot of people will afk in this instance since their death wont impact the run if the 7 other ppl are enough to clear it without any struggles. They probably wont do it on their clear run, but every time it'll pop on Trial roulette i expect to have at least 1 guy being AFK.

Pretty much like people going AFK in T4 or CM to Spiritbond ( to name the most common ones ).

Disopointed on no tome cap removal! I have no idea why they have not done it as every other way to gear up has been cracked open!

I think its because during one of their recent LL they had "2.5 part 2" and then "The battle for ishgard" listed as two separate things... leading people to believe the battle for Ishgard would be a separate thing.

Not correct. Yoshida said 2.5 is 2/3 of the final patch and 2.55 will bei the last 1/3.

Honestly, I would find this a VASTLY more interesting patch, than what they gave us. The economy have been shafted for content almost as much as raiding now, not getting any major updates to make it more interesting in an almost 3 month window now, and we have to wait ANOTHER 3 months to get more....

I feel like 2.5 part 1 was the last actual patch we had, and they just slowed down the patch schedule to get the expansion out. Gold saucer patch, zero entertainment. 2.5 part 2, zero entertainment.

Stop only catering to casuals/rp'ers, questers, and battle classes, SE! We understand they have needs, but the other people want your attention too!

exactly what im asking for. I don't care about the main story, nor about pointless trials. I also don't care about time waters without significant rewards.

I care about Gil. Ways to make it, and ways to spend it. That is the entire gameplay that I live and breathe, 21 hours a day, 7 days a week. And, from that viewpoint, we aren't getting anything.

Maybe I should've slept during patch time. Too late now.
