Tbh I've heard some ppl wanting something similar, but it regards savage raiding and it was in another time too probably SE is catering to those, that said I blame wow on this too since legion and in a small part wod introduced the damn "I'll release the patch 1 bit at a time so you don't burn out" behavior.Quote:

04-27-2018, 06:26 AMBourne_EndeavorSavage is understandable. The World First groups want a chance to prepare all their crafted gear, jump into normal a couple times to get a feel for potential Savage mechanics and maybe do the MSQ or Primal. Delaying Heaven on High is SE assuming casual players won't have enough time.Quote:

It honestly sounds like 4.3 is coming with a lot of good stuff. Really about time there were cross-world linkshells and I'm psyched that the glamour dresser is getting fixed so you can get your items back. Now I can finally dump stuff in there and glamour over leveling gear without worry (though I'll give it a few days just to make sure any potential bugs are ironed out).
Not at Stormblood yet, but can't wait to catch up and see the story additions! -
04-27-2018, 06:31 AMRiyahArpIt's cheesed just the same, crafting for leves is not much better because you just abuse a handful of them. There's really no point to craft otherwise, the ingredients for most things are absurd starting from the 50s on, and you rarely have the skill to HQ on the leveling journey. You can get from 60-70 by abusing single leves usually.Quote:

They aren't adversaries like the ARR tribes, and they are just...there. No idea what their primals are, and they really didn't be any part of the coalition to retake doma.
As for stuff, teh crafting tribes and definitely deep dungeon, especially if the focus is on hard content over leveling. We need kind of alternative grindy stuff to work on besides leveling that we can do as combat classes. -
04-27-2018, 06:32 AMRemediIt was for savage yes but the reasoning was more about taking part on the MSQ and other things, since thye get to do so late they kinda gets the spoilers one way or the other, that said It was during midas that was said and the savage scene was very different.Quote:

04-27-2018, 06:40 AMBillyKaplanThere's a side-quest chain in Yanxia that's unlocked after you complete a couple of side-quests in Namai (which after you've edited your post I see you've actually done). It'll likely be a requirement to their tribe quests like how you had to complete both story side quest chains in Fringes for the Ananta. Not only is it cute in its own right (imo at least, ymmv), but like most such quests it unlocks other side quests in the Yuzuka Manor. Among the things you learn there is how the Namazu tie into the end of the bloody war that ravaged Yanxia, and why they wear the bells around their necks. Also they have magic abilities in their whiskers.Quote:

Out of the 100 floors, 70 are equivalent to PotD's 101+ as they were described as difficult 4-player content in the live letter.Quote:

Bigger glamour dresser? Yes, please.

I always do the MSQ stuff first, so that's what I'm looking forward to with 4.3.

I'm usually only excited for class adjustments, savage/ultimate, and the hopes of actual customizable features and haristyles everything is else is meh....

-Same with the Beast Tribes. Even if this is a crafting tribe, it probably will still amount to "fly here, now fly there, craft 2 of these in under a minute, fly back there." I also don't find their stories all that compelling throughout. Oh well, easy exp for non-70 DoHs.
But I do look forward to the new floors of Deep Dungeon and the new Eureka zone. Deep Dungeon has always been a little less straightforward and varied based on your teammates and I would like to see if they've adjusted anything in Eureka based on feedback, and of course the initial exploration.
Also looking forward to the QoL updates. For a game so invested in the Duty Finder instances rather than server-side activities, the cross-world linkshells are a much-needed addition. The Glamour Dresser updates are a welcome improvement and the guestbook?... Eh, yeah, some people will get mileage out of it probably.
