First off, let me say that I went through the entire patchnotes for 1.21 and am very happy with what I see... With one exception.
Where are the new Grand Company ranks? I was really looking forward to using all those seals I've been grinding since reaching Sergeant... Will we really not have any more ranks for the next couple of months?
Just wondering if there is a possibility of them being implemented in a 1.21a or if we'll have to wait until 1.22, because if that is the case and I can easily see myself and others reaching the 30k seals cap and have nothing else to spend them on.
No new GC Ranks with 1.21?

if they added more ranks every patch, theyd eventualy be way overdoing it
we got companys when, 1.18?
1.19 we had no update on ranks
then we got it again in 1.20
so 2 patches between them last time, no reason to expect them every time -
03-09-2012, 12:36 AMColinoWe had way less means of getting seals (and less time inbetween those patches as well). I'm not saying they should add 3 or 4 ranks at a time, but one rank that was fairly expensive to achieve would be nice. At the very least we would have something to grind towards.Quote:

They added more reasons to grind for seals and reach the current rank cap in 1.21. There is no reason to add new ranks just yet.

Ok fine I guess I'm the only idiot with some seals to spend and wouldn't mind the game having more stuff to spend them on.
Move along then. -

Yet, there WILL be more stuff to spend seals on in 1.21...

03-09-2012, 12:49 AMTheVedisi have 28k seals saved just in case we had new ranksQuote:

I'd be more excited if you actually earned the ranks rather than buy em, so I'm actually glad they didn't add more ranks yet lol.

03-09-2012, 01:37 AMColinoWell for the last one as of now you have to both pay and do a quest... Which is reasonable I suppose.Quote:

I would say yes, there is new ranks. -
03-09-2012, 02:02 AMKumaAkuma
Note the 40k seal cap.
Edit: lady beat me to it :( -

I dunno, previously they mentioned new GC ranks in the patch notes.

03-09-2012, 02:21 AMColinoHa! My bad for not noticing that.Quote:

I thought they added too many ranks last time, to be honest. Felt like I was just attaining ranks for no reason.
-
03-09-2012, 04:00 AMneorei
maybe in the letter patches
-
03-09-2012, 04:01 AMTheVedisi agree, they only needed 1 new rank last time and we got what, 4?Quote:
