Alright, I have some thoughts on this thread. This is my first post so bare with me. I'm going to be the optimist and say that 1.19 might be sooner than a lot of people are expecting. Yoshi is saying that the reason for the big delay of the 1.18 patch is the instant raids, which would have a dedicated team working on that. If all the other teams are running on schedule then I can see 1.19 coming out pretty soon after 1.18 comes out.

My second thought is maybe SE should split the patch's into two separate categories. Have a set of patch's that would only be updates (battle reforms etc) and the other set to be content. If they did that, they could have brought out 1.18 with everything but the raids in june and the raids could have come out in July.

Thats all I have right now.
