Your thoughts on the updated 2.2 news

I saw GIlgamesh, I saw Leviathan, and I saw new hairstyles, gardening, and retainer stuff as well as Sahagins and more main story quests. I am excite.

What are you talking about? There are several nice mage sets up to 50, if you take the time to collect them. The level 15 acolyte set... the leevl 30ish battlemage set... Might be another 40's set in there but not sure...

Probably that the gear used for glamouring needs to use the same amount of slots as the gear you are actually wearing.

In other words, you can't make a DL cowl look like the Battlemage gear because the cowl has a combined hood and body, while they are separate pieces in the Battlemage set.

or that is how I interpreted Sqeenix their explanations anyway.

Well, there's a reason WoW almost dropped 25-man raid mode from its expansion development back in Pandaria, and that's because no one could be arsed to do it because 10Ms gave the same rewards with 10% of the hassle of rounding up 15 more people, and 10Ms were generally tuned much easier than 25M (other than the whole 1x battle rez thing and various gimmick mechanics). Don't think full-on 24M content is going to happen in this game only because large-scale organized raiding is perceived by the general public as "hardcore."

But yes, for endgame we had 4 coil bosses and 3 primals (for half the time) for 6 months now. For the next 6 months's endgame, we get 4 coil bosses and 2 primals. Seems sparse even for a casual game, when pretty much everything productive to do outside of coil is time-gated in some way. I guess I could level my chocobo /nauseous

Nonetheless it's a good patch. Vanity systems are always good even though there's not much variety yet to vanity, new gearsets are good, relic quest continuations are good, new fights look awesomesauce. Lots of fluff. Just not sure I'll be happy as a raider.

Does anyone have pictures or SS of the new tome class armor or new coil turn armor? Dunno if I missed any of this but I'm curious to see what it looks like!

Welcome to *all* newer MMORPGs. Glad to see you realize how the average WoW mentality forced its way into every other single MMORPG out there

I agree with your view more than a Dark knight needing a Sole Sushi.

After watching the video, I'm... still pretty meh about this patch. I do love the visual design in the Lost City of Amdapor. That place looks stunning. And I'm kind of interested in gardening. But this is severely overshadowed by 1) only two new hairstyles?? and 2) horribly disappointing vanity system.

The only thing I really feel is missing is a more dangerous open world.
The way it the open world feels right now is laughable.

Oh yeah I purposely skipped that horrible head/body mage piece Wearing the CT head and still stuck in my level 60's demagague body piece untill I can win a roll on the BLM body hehe (or choose to put out the myth tomes for the higher version)

You know what's the annoying part about these kinds of complaints? You pretend that HM dungeons are the only thing that they're adding and conveniently ignore that these come in addition to a new dungeon, 4 more levels of coil and a new primal fight.

I didnt pretend the dungeons were the only thing they were adding. Apparently you cant read very well.

The last part of my post commented on the rest of it, and I say again... "Meh".

You pretend that that's the only thing they're adding because you make a whole point to complain about the HM dungeons and then label everything else as "Meh", including the all new dungeon and Coil levels. So you complain about "rehashed dungeons" and you complain about the new dungeons too. You just want to whine.

This is the new 'style' for all those with the WoW short attention (instant gratification) spans and it (unfortunately) isn't going to change. Doesn't matter what MMO you decide to play.

This is like when people say stuff like "those that want to grind stuff for months have no life and still live in their parents basement."

I agree that the leveling in this game is far too fast, but I also don't need to grind the same content for years to get a relic to feel a sense of accomplishment. Making sweeping generalizations like that about people is just stupid.
