Final 1.0 event info & time

yep, i dont see anything new

Yep I see nothing.

So, nothing has changed.

Where's the explosions, dammit! Fire and brimstone!! Wild stampedes of lvl 100 mobs through Uldah!!!

So it begins.

Who knows maybe they couldn't do a patch while saving character data and it's coming tomorrow or something. That or the information for the event is allready in the game files but I doubt that's the case if they are doing anything that involves game data we would have found it allready.

Or they didn't do a damn thing, one or the other.

First thing to come to mind

Considering that Yoshida explicitly promised changes in the weather, I don't see why we should disbelieve what he says.

Weather assets are all already in the game, so they can most probably change them over time without a patch.

Here's what Yoshi said.

"Hello! Producer/Director Yoshida here.

After tomorrow’s final save maintenance, the current version of FFXIV will enter its final stage. The weather will be altered even further, so I urge you to participate in these final 10 days! J"

I guess mabye we should wait a little bit longer.

well they said there's an event it just isn't apparent yet

I am assuming the change will happen at 12:00 midnight PDT Nov 1

The music just changed suddenly! Not in town, but outside! And Atomos spawned things that look exactly like Batraal!!

Though it's so close I will find out myself soon enough ehehe lol

We will never know... guess we'll have to log in every 24 hours to find out...

I usually look forward to the next episode of "The Walking Dead" every week and drawing events out :P

Imperials are back up at Dragonhead! Head there quickly if you want your Imperial Operative Hat and Imperial Operative Tricorne before the final sav- Oh wait...

I just love the storms and the music and setting, it just feels eerie and like the calm before the storm, lots of high level mobs spawning in the aetherytes and imperials too, airships are definetly flying lower... this is going to be HUGE during the next 10 days.

I plan to kill Lord British in these last ten days.

So last night on our server, a bunch of people were fighting the beasts that were spawning outside the front gates of the cities. We were in Thanalan. There were buffaloes first...Then morbols. Then drakes. I had to log, but heard that later in the evening there were chimeras. Many of them.

Took a little trip down to brittlebark and died on arrival.

Took a bunch of pictures of the lightning storm though after the morbols at the front gates of Ul'dah though.

I'm curious to see what other craziness goes on. Has anyone been able to go out to Mor Dhona more extensively to see if anything has changed with the area over near Castrum Novum?

There wont be any big physical changes, just mob pops if anything they didn't actually add anything to the game for this event just used pre-existing effects and beasts.

Although it would be nice if they started throwing out the mobs they have hidden in the .dats that will be obsolete in 2.0. I want to see the bug-eyed wolf and the FFXI style Cocatrice show up before the end of days.
