Patch 2.5 Preliminary Notes Discussion

[Ehayte]

Looks like grinds for Alexandrite and soulglazing has been made easier too.

How so? I'm not doubting you but my quick glance over the notes didn't reveal that to me.

Judging from the notes, I'm going to guess the Mystery Trial could be against Lahabrea (or another Ascian).
1) the quest starts in N. Thanalan
2) the achievement: Secret Ascian Man --- Defeat ??? in ???.
3) the auto-translate: Duty --- the void

I have a similar guess, in that at the end of 2.5 we are going to meet an ascian and solo fight them in the story, and we will get an extreme version.

I just hope that Odin, Gilg X, and the new trial all drop i120-i130 accessories!
