Hmm.. No patch for this week?

This week marks the 6th week since Patch 2.2 which the third buff on the first coil of bahamut should come.. but last night's maintenance isn't a patch and there's no patch notes.

I'm not keen in the coil buff, but I'm tracking it because I'm wondering if it is this week or 2 weeks later where patch 2.28 should probably come.

Was thinking this week could be patch 2.26, but no news at all.. hmm...

There was no maint on NA/EU servers last night. That was JP servers. Our maint is in 5hrs 15mins. There doesn't need to be a patch either, it is something they flip server side.

Changes will come with a patch note. If you noticed, Patch 2.21 is actually just the first coil buff. 2.25 is new PvP gears, that materia transformation thing with the second installment of the buff.

2 more buff schedule remains which I'm guessing it should be 2.26 and 2.28.

Seems more likely it'll be next week now and it might be 2.28, would be a perfect time to release it mid May but they rarely get stuff on time so it could be in two more weeks, they do need to patch the Echo in since last two buffs were patched in.

It's golden week in Japan, you expected for patch to get done while everyone is out having fun in the real world?

Golden Week stopped on Wednesday (I know, I worked on Wednesday...). So this is not an excuse :)

I'm sorry, but Japanese doesn't work that way. If it is something scheduled, Japanese companies get it done even it is public holiday.

Except that's not how SE works. They say one thing then deliver a "Please look forward"

Except no one at SE ever said a patch was coming last night. That was the community over hyping their own speculation.

I was wondering why i hadn't seen anything on this either. They did say they would increase it every two weeks from 2.2 up to 30% i thought. Some kind of notice that it is delayed would have been nice.....

I think you are confusing what the issue is. The Coil buff does not need a patch and it is likely that the buff happened last night during the maintenance. The issue is that the community started the rumor that tomorrow would be 2.28 so people were looking for a patch, not just a coil buff.

Fair point. I wasn't sure if they actually needed to patch it or if it could be a live adjustment. To put it simply, can anyone confirm if the buff has been increased or not?

No one started the 2.28 rumour, that 2.28 is this week. In fact most people expected this week to be 2.26 and 2 weeks later, 2.28

The coil buff will come with a patch because all changed are recorded in a patch note which serves as a change log. Like I mentioned earlier, 2.21 is the example - 2.21 is just the start of the first coil buff.

And the 20% buff was due for more than 24hrs according to Patch 2.2's schedule. No changes in coil - just came out of it.

I get that, it's a straight up DPS check, make sure your dd's are saving their cooldowns for the second conflag and the fourth conflag because no one will be running in on those and they go much quicker.
