Two Paragraphs of Lore explaining the introduction of Artifact Armours.

Quote:

---

Of particular popularity are such curios as realistic replicas of relics along with ancient artifacts dating back to the Allagan Empire

[...]certain techniques and traditions would fall out of favor. I speak of those age-old arts that demand drastic degrees of dedication, and whose acquisition requires that the practitioner prevail over perils in plenitude. Of late, rumors are rampant regarding the resurgence of such arts

Only replicas? Are they genuine imitation? Side note: I have to say I really enjoy all the little runs of alliteration in these snippets. Thumbs up to the Localisation team.


Did anyone else shout out to their friends "LODESTONE UPDATE" only for them to get dissapointed at it not being a letter?

Oh and today I learnt:
Axes (/ˈæksiːz/), the plural of axis, is pronounced differently from axes (/ˈæksɨz/), the plural of ax(e).

Saw it.
Read it.
Flipped a table so hard it entered orbit around the sun.

Told LS mates.
They flipped tables in a similar fashion.

SE: You're breaking my heart.

I wouldn't flip tables just yet. SE very rarely post updates this early in the day. Mayhaps they have something more in store for us in a few hours when they normally post updates.

Yes. Given that Yoshida told us that the letter was finished and should of reached the translators yesterday morning, it seems dissapointing its taken 1.5 days to translate a letter which is now overdue.

But hey, more lore right?

Yeah where is the letter? I am going to explode with anticipation!!! Yoshi finished it a couple of days ago now! Maybe He should never have told us it was done and awaiting localization.

Careful, you don't one want to awaken the white ones in armor. They are lurking.

Well If everthing goes so "fast" that would explain the one month patch delay :P

But yeah, letters etc usually be posted later, like around ~3hrs from now ^^

Ok, they're just fucking with us at this point.

Letter is a myth.

This update is twofold:

The first paragraph is about artifact armor, possibly needing new allagan stuff for those awesome old "artifact" armors

The second is about the jobs themselves (mostly pointing to mnk) mentioning the resurgance of these old/new skills.
