A mini-expansion to me would be something like "Witch Hunts" from Dragon Age Origins. That's a mini expansion...this...this is just bug fixes and the content that should have been in the first place.

Btw, good job SE team. Looking forward to trying it out. You have peaked my interest :)

Yeah pretty much the next few patches as well will be things that should have been in the game since release.

Yeah agreed :/. It's getting there though, it's getting there. Glad to see that they are working balls to the walls to get this game fixed.

Didn't take it as an attack. Was having a little fun. In all actuallity I am wierd and a non-conformist

While I wouldnt call it a mini-expansion, it certainly is a game changer. Crafting is going to be a whole different ball game for new players. The list of items they are deleting from the game entirely or are no longer used for crafting is gigantic. I also get the impression that we are going to have to spend a great deal MORE time gathering to get the same amount of items as before.

suspect there will be a transition period where you can transfer the applicable items before the inventory slots disappear. If it goes anything like FFXI we will get them back plus some in about 2 years

I saw no mention of LFG update. perhaps the tutorials will really help with people using the party function

Reading these patch notes are like reading "The Lord of the Rings". Everytime I go through them I find something I missed before. After reading them I am almost afraid of the sizes for 1.20 and 1.21. Most of my concerns have been addressed by other posters before me. Only need 1 clarification though <probably overreading>.

Notes say that adding Materia can only be done by Diciples of the Hand. Does this mean just having a DoH item equiped or did you actually have to have selected DoH when you first created youyr character?

Aside from that this is awesome. It will probably take me so much time exploring the new content that I should have a large stockpile of levee credits stored by the time I am done. The live session with Yoshi-P should really be interesting after reading this

The one thing missing that kept this from being a perfect update:

The Interface has been move to Client-side dependency

Would have made it a perfect update.

I think they'll be fine. The overworld public dungeons are pretty big.

Just don't let your tank die and it shouldn't be noticeable. If he dies, he has to regain aggro and that 7 seconds is crucial. Anybody else not so much.

is there anything in the notes that say "Action bars saved per class"? or is that not 1.19?

Scroll down to the Armoury System changes. It is slated for 1.20.

Quote:

Automatic setting of current class's actions
Addition of rules and conditions for setting actions of other classes

I believe that is what you are asking about.

Hah, when I die, regaining aggro typically means I die right again. Weakness sucks...

Awesome, great job.

Did you see the success rate on that materia meld screen? 18%. Somehow I doubt we're going to be seeing all that many uber-weapons with 5 pieces of materia slotted....

Everything else though I loved.

Its because the games economy is messed up cos everyone has too much money, this it to take more out the system for people that should beable to afford it, if they didnt take gil out the system prices would just go up and up and up, therefore locking new players out because of the time it would take them to make enough gil to buy anything.

Oh of course. People screamed and screamed for gathering fatigue to be removed and now SE does it enjoy spending 10 hours gathering what used to take 2.

To Community Reps,

I also hope we get some clarification on what MIND does after the patch, now that:
Quote:
PIE has been made to influence maximum MP.

Increases in VIT and PIE granted by gear have been made to influence maximum HP and MP respectively.
It would be good to know since they're being a lot more open and giving us details on changes now. :)

Thanks!

Hi Jynx,

Totally agree. :) I hope we get some details on how Yoshida-san is fielding questions from people. If it's happening in a few days, you'd think the Community Reps would start some Official Questions Thread. Or maybe they'll translate it live (on the fly) via Youtube Comments Box?

Can't wait.

I'm a bit disheartened that they eased up on different monster classes giving more/less SP though, seems just like another unique thing that is gone once again.

I am hoping we will have Mog Houses (or Sylph Huts) to put our stuff in by patch 1.21

Nice Patch though...looks good...have a nice weekend Devs...then get to work on the next one. ;>P
