World of Darkness Weapons

So World of Darkness will have it own unique weapon that players will need to farm special mats located in World of Darkness.

What do you think these weapons will be?

(PS sand,oil, and tome will have a separate loot mimit from WoD gears so each week players can get 1 WoD gear and 1 sand,oil, or tome.)

There won't be any oil, sands and UAT there.

There will be Carbontwine, Carboncoat and encrypted tomes.

Seems like Phlegethon's sword was in the presentation.

I have to say that whatever it is, I'm looking forward to the conclusion. Hopefully the weapons will be ilvl 120 as a minimum, perhaps upgradeable to 130 via some kind of quest or items. I'm mostly interested in where this all leads up to story-wise, but it's nice to have some cool gear to look forward to as well.

I need to know what happened to Nero!

He got raped by CoD surely, or eat by cerberus.

Judging by previous experiences with CT raid drops and how they compare with the rest of the gear on the market, I don't think they will be immediately upgradeable. I would hope that they would get upgrades through the crafting system a la the augmented primal weapons, but I think they'll stick at i120 for a while.

These weapons will be crafted, but the mats needed will drop there, so you can expect high lvl recipes, and high prices for a weapon which will be under ilvl120.

The design will be cool tho.

I'm just wondering what the other weapons will look like. Especially the Axe and Fists.

<--WAR Primary, MNK Secondary.

They said that they weren't going to add more 4 stars as it was too much for most players so I guess it will be 3stars.

The sword is called Dimension Blade.
I wonder if it will be able to expand like the boss' version too?

[Citation Needed]. 4* recipes aren't the problem for the most part...infact they're typically easier than the master II books.

The problem is not to craft 4 stars in HQ, it's to be able to craft 4 stars, you know mastercraft demi-materia and ixal sealant.

Q 12 and 13

Wait, wait wait. World of Darkness will actually be in the Void. right? That opens the room for various other final fantasy bosses to join the fun. Soooo, Masamune maybe?

Opens up, sure, but we're most likely only going to have mobs found in FFIII's World of Darkness. The yellow Chimera's (which I hope will have Dragon and Ram's Voice and hit like trucks, making 'gather together - AoE' and single tanks the worst idea) are most likely going to be called Garm.

Nope, because it is ffxiv's void, not ffv, basically this void is like our outer space in our galaxy while other worlds are other galaxies, which means that they are connected but you can't reach other places, not easily at least, this Cloud of Darkness might not even be the same as FFIII's.

Besides, Masamune is somewhere hanging out in the lifestream.

I wonder if the weapons will be based on CT/ST bosses meaning that BLM or WHM may get Scylla's staff

I just want that monk gear. Was so cool. Caster gear too!

Yeah I got confused a bit between the Rift and the Void. It is a bit hazy. Like in Dissidia World B is supposed to be in the Void, but all the heroes and villains are summoned through the rift. In FFV the Void is sealed inside the rift. It's enough to drive you crazy. Still if we can have another Cloud of Darknes there is nothing to suggest that we can't have a witch called Ultimecia or an evil tree called Exdeath.

Probably been said but, unless you're a crafter don't get too excited - It's probably a 5/6th chest alliance wide lot casting for the materials then a 4 star recipe.

If they modeled it after III properly they'd give us an additional route to Eureka where we get our own phased chest so everyone gets a weapon of choice (random to keep in line with being an MMO) if you meet certain conditions (kind of like FFXI where in Nyzul you could get "free" rooms that has a loot chest or no objectives to clear.)

You have to remember Yoshida says a lot of things that he 180s on or turns out outright false.

So you mean Masamune is hanging out in the Aether..right? Cuz you know..Aether = Lifestream.

All I know is that, as they're crafted weapons, I will never be able to afford one.

Let's hope they won't do the same as the primal weapons.

hahahahahha... wait ... your serious?

SE LOOOVE forcing us to go thought the hardest way possible for crafted wepions, that makes us go though all new crafting courses.
my guess will be new poetic items the wod item 20 democrat battle materias a crap tonne of crystals. as well as the ixali sealant and 9/10 other 4 star crafted materials

the earliest most of us will get our hands on these is 3.5 :c which saddens me.

Well, since there will be Tomes/Twine for Poetics weapons dropped here too, I imagine the weapons will be at least i130, if not i135.

Final Coil weapons are i135 and is the current progression content so that wouldn't make much sense, especially being crafted.

Final Coil - i135 (Progression Content)
Augmented Ironworks (Alternative path) - i130
Ironworks - i120
Zodiac Weapons - i120
Shiva (Dust) - i115
High Allagan - i115
V
Older Weapons.

So 130 I could see, 135 definitely not as that puts it on par with Final Coil.

Nothing wrong with having multiple sets of weapons of the same iLv. What would be the point in obtaining any of the crafted WoD weapons when you can grab an i130 poetics weapon as easily as it is now to get a soldiery weapon? I sure as hell won't be spending the gil for one if that's the case.

Not necesseraly, maybe the main reason to get them will be vanity, as they don't want craft to give high level weapons, therefor you can forget about anything ilvl110+.

Anything is possible. In that case, they'd basically be the new i95 primal weapons - i115 and a complete waste of gil/dev. resources. Yay!

130 is even still high, I would wager the weapon will be 125. The CT line has been way to easy to warrant a weapon currently restricted to people who kill t11 plus. It would be like saying WoD and Coil are the exact same and this is unfair to those who work hard to down current endgame content. Of course I could be wrong and WoD becomes the hardest thing in the game, but this isn't 11 , it will be cookie cutter color by numbers can run it your sleep.

They mentioned WoD will be dropping the Ironworks upgrade mat and Allagan Tome for the Iornworks weapons as well which is the ilvl 120 - 130 weapons.

Ironwork mats/tome will be a separate loot limit so players will have a chance to obtain 1 Ironwork mat/tome and 1 WoD Gear.

With this info I'm guessing the WoD weapons may be ilvl 130 since Final Coil weapons are ilvl 135.
