3.2 Patch Notes

[Nalien]

Can you show me which note says that? I can't find it.

This?

Players will no longer be able to trade Allagan tomestones of law for the following items:
Purified Coke / Raziqcoat / Dryad Sap / Moonbeam Silk / Odorless Animal Fat / Skyspring Water

The above items can now be obtained from the following dungeons:
Neverreap / The Fractal Continuum / Saint Mocianne's Arboretum / Pharos Sirius (Hard)

I don't get the problem with this though... Couldn't we already get Purified Coke/etc. from Diadem? Far more availability out of dungeons though, but I would guess new recipes will add to their demand, in which case a boost in supply makes perfect sense... inb4 the Viltgance-type airship parts require just as much Purified Coke as previous parts needed regular old Coke...

They're moving them from the Law vendor to old dungeons (they're basically irrelevant mats now, like has happened each time we get more) instead of having you buy them with ESO. They want them to be gathered and used.

Oh I see. Well isn't this more better than spend 1800 law for 1 thing?

And I agree, Diadem need some gathering nodes to drop red scrip item like... Put it on Hard mode? (Maybe bad idea since people want 210 gear rather than red scrip item, but 210 gear already outdated tho)

You can already get the stuff from Diadem, I just checked.

8 Brass Sky Pirate Spoils = 1 Purified Coke/etc.
3/5 Steel Sky Pirate Spoils = 1 Ooid/Roundstone/Wyvern's Wart/etc., too.

Kind of surprised we don't see more crafters farming Diadem to be honest... Perhaps with 3.2s i220 crafted sets finally giving crafting some real relevance we might? I imagine Diadem will be kept up by increased demand on materia, although I didn't see anything in the patch notes about tomestone/raid gear allowing melds now... Is that still happening? Heck, will it apply to old stuff? I would assume we lost custom stats on Anima weapons because we get to meld them?

No no, I mean put it in gathering's nodes not trade with coins.

I want to get the words "there is no such thing as a cap on DPS, more DPS is always good" tattooed across my chest

We ned more boss fights with over-dps checks, it seem.
Do too much DPS in short time and the boss get angry ^^

To touch on the red scrip mats dropping, I am super excited for this, because it will help me finally get my foot in the door to reliably make red scrips and actually participate in the system without having to be an omnicrafter (which they, supposedly, wanted to kill off, ironically) or spending millions on materia that will be useless within a single patch.

For those who don't know, this is how the gear currently ranks:
1. HQ level 60 crafter gear = NQ crafted DoH AF2
2. Then you have HQ crafted DoH AF2
3. Red scrip AF2 DoH gear = HQ crafted DoH AF2 + max melds on every piece

So with the items dropping in dungeons it is cutting the cost and the grind to make it easier to get people to a level where they can get HQ DoH AF2s crafted so that participating in the red scrip system doesn't require a sacrificial limb. It's not making crafters jump to being the best by any stretch, as the new sets will make even the red scrip AF2s obsolete, but it will make it a hell of a lot easier to get crafters to a point where they can be effective and (albeit slowly) reliably craft for red scrips so they can begin progressing. (Without relying on materia, I should add.)

Looks quite interesting but there's a few things I suspect are grammatical errors. The ability to exchange ventures for centurio seals for example. I think should be that ventures are purchasable with clan seals.

The way it's worded sounds like the gc seals where you can exchange dungeon drops for gcse seals.

Except no one ever learned. See: Pharos Sirius. 99% of the game is all about pumping out MAD DEEPS. Kinda hard to break away from that, especially when you aren't told in game that you should slow down. Then again Steps of Faith had an NPC tell you what to do and people still failed anyway...

1 thing thats always confused me. People will say that this can/is often someones first MMO, Hell it was my first and I understand what they're saying.

However steps of faith can be explained in a few sentences. 1 tank and healer on cannons, cannons focus adds and use snares when up at later cannons. Dps focus on the main boss and ignore adds, one takes care of dragon killer. Tank brings adds to the front for the cannons to kill.

That is literally it. I do not know how after explaining something so simple that people are still confused. The fact that Steps of faith had to get nerfed almost asap does a good job of describing the average skill level of the community.
