Patch 2.3 Notes (Full Release) (07/08/2014)

http://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...bb7a9e427f0ced

Full patch notes are up!

It now has all the recipes and the costs of the new housing wards. What else can people see that is new from the preliminary?

housing prices are fudged up again with new wards. ~golf clap~ should have expected that but I thought they would have handled that better this time >.<

Oomph. So much grinding to do lol

So excited to dye my regular af gear. To dye it, you need 1500 myth... per set :(
I guess I need to get back on that myth grind xD

Overall, I'm pretty excited for the patch. Tomorrow feels like Christmas

Crazy huge list, but no actual Black Mage mechanical changes. Boo

Augmented Saurian, Cashmere, and Wolfram pieces? Augmentation is only for dying purposes, right? I wonder if it will allow different parts to be dyed or if they will actually be upgrades.

I noticed this, under resolved issue "An issue wherein thaumaturges and black mages were able to cast multiple fire-based spells under the effect of Umbral Ice I or II."

Does that mean the mp regen trick to cast 2 flares is not possible anymore? That would be kind of a bummer.

Talk about some real love(ish) for Alchemists. Giving them AF augmentations is big. They do require master myth pieces from other classes, but still, that's some love. I wonder if SE expects the amount of myth items (cashmere, emery etc.) in circulation to increase with the new myth boosts.

Probably

/10char

lol on midgard I figured I'd wait to buy a house, thinking maybe it would go down after patch if not change at all, but it what.. nearly doubles? wow. No words. I guess I can wait a month for it to fall to the price it was already at. Ugg.

I re-read and saw it was for the sixth ward, so I guess I panicked over nothing. Nothing to see here...

It's under the alchemy recipes. The "set name" augmentation. It requires 3 items
that are all bought with myth. 3 times 500 unfortunately equals 1500 myth xD

Well, its really a Terminous Putty (150 Myth for Latex, but Putty requires 3 to make 3 [silly craft] so 450 Myth), 2 Myth Mat crafts (1000 Myth) and 2 Philo Mat crafts (45K GC Seals) per Augmentation. Look under the ALC recipes

No problem. Sucks but then again, myth farming won't be so bad.
Pretty sure Crystal Tower is gonna give a lot of myth, on top of the changes to
myth in the old dungeons and the roulettes itself, it won't be so bad. Just...


NO MORE BRAFYLOX... at least not as much

I'm so sick of Brayflox Nonstop which I did for my PLD/BRD animus lol. There was a day I grinded 2,600 myth and never I grinded so much myth in a single day afterwards. And the reason why I haven't completed any Novus yet. XD

Good news that the daily roulettes are generating more myth, and of course the multiple runs from Cosplay/Glamour tower will give me some handsome amount of myth overtime too. Artemis Novus currently at 43/75, I shall see whether I get Novus first or High Allagan Bow first lols.

Read the whole thread...it's the cost of the myth mats required to make the upgrade item.

ALLLLLL the way at the bottom of the patch notes. New recipes.

awww.... unless I overlooked it I didnt see any new glasses recipies.
*sulks*

As a smn this patch has me debating rather I want to continue with my subscription. They said they were going to make the other egi's more usefulness so garuda isn't always the go-to pet.

A 5 point potency is in no way going to even get close to garudas magic base dmg to say nothing of contagion. Along with bio2 getting a mana reduction... woohoo?

I need to calm down and think about this first, maybe see the difference first hand but right now I'm fuming. I loathe being lied to.

I am glad everyone else is looking forward to things though, and the pld/war buff is nice. :)

Oval glasses and shaded spectacles under goldsmithing.

At least I'm done with the must-Myth items... just need to make sure I got the stuff for my ALC to make the junk then...

thaumaturges can't cast Flare, so no.

read the red note under it. The camp is being put in but won't be accessible.

The settlement yes, but it says we can't access it as of 2.3.

nvm, reread the notes

Is it odd that I'm excited that I don't have to dismount before talking to an NPC? I don't mind being dismounted when I do talk to an NPC but having to dismount beforehand was a bit of an annoyance.

All together now!

"Judgment Bolts and Lightning, very very frightening...!"

---

Why would you think it's odd...? Obviously the whole reason they are implementing it is because it was annoying.

I bruteforced my weaver with some fc help to 3 star right before the servers went down. reading those patch notes gives me a headache.

I have my mount on a hotbar, so that particular requirement about needing to dismount first didn't really bother me too much. But it's a QoL improvement that I know others will appreciate more than I do.

There are those times where convert and mp potion is down, and if the pull is big enough I found it pretty useful to do.

Levin Barding!

Edit: I notice Alchemist can basically augment every AF gear set. So will the AFs be glowy in addition to being able to be dyed? Or is the dye in and of itself the augementation?
