Palace of the Dead (PAX)

[ADVSS]

Id honestly worry about that issue when the content comes out, I'm pretty sure that they said they were working on increasing armory chest space, but if you think about this in the sense that it is separate content(would they allow us to bring max ether or other outside items for use in or will we use what is found and a seperate inventory table for this content?) It would be weird if we just dumped our chest out in a retainer then filled it with bis crafted for each level jump just to get the upper hand in the content also. I mean what are save points for really?

I like how people keep discounting how strong crafted can be for the price you pay for it. Crafted armor is a substantially greater investment than any other armor in the game, requiring millions of gil just for one piece on melding alone. Or if you have no intention of spending even 1 gil the time investment is still greater than that required for any other armor in the game. If you can ready a set of crafted to try and get the upper hand in Deep Dungeon, then I say more power to you as you're treating it far more seriously than anyone else.

The weapons are the exception to that rule actually. I think it's because it switches your weapon, then unequips everything else before equiping the rest of the gearset.

yeah because the weapon is what really switches the job u are , so the check goes weapon > everything else

this weapons of "light" , maybe arent new weapons and just the buff inside (level sync 1 ) ....

i'm more concerned by the type of reward you will earn from this content, the idea behind is nice, but if you think about it. the item you will bring from outside (armor and such) will have almost no impact, progression separated...

then what will be reward? only cosmetic? will be sad...

[Riardon]

It all depends upon the rewards. If the rewards are not good enough this will end up an abandoned cave like Diadem pretty soon. There needs to be some long term rewards. If the rewards are not important or cool enough and they put a mount as a reward which will you will take in few days, then you will have no reason to do it again then it will be a waste of time. Time will tell but I my expectations are low.

Wait

is this the XIV version of DMC's Bloody Palace I asked for a while back

mmmmmmmmjuicy

Bloody Palace doesn't end until you die. Knowing Square this will have limited floors and they did say they will "add" more floors in patch updates.

[Maero]

Finally sounds like something refreshing. Anxious for it
Not sure i understand yet the ranking system, you start @ level 1, for what?
I have most jobs @ 60 already or is this something entirely different?

[LDR]

hence why i said "version of"

SE wouldnt dare do a literal copy in fear of it being to hard for most.

it will be adapted to suit XIV style
but its still sounding very much like the "core" idea of BP
which
yay

[Yasuhiro]

They can't afford to mess this up.
The wound is still open from 3.1's blunder, please make this good Square, this is the variety I'm looking for.

[Rhaja]

I may be overly optimistic about it, but I doubt this will fail as hard as Diadem because it won't be a 72man hunt zerg. I'm looking forward to dungeon crawling this solo plenty, along with a few unorthodox runs ready. I fully expect the excitement to die off a lot in a week, and the rewards will be as ridiculous as the Feast rewards, but being able to solo this will keep it afloat longer than Diadem.

My expectations: If I can go in, kill things, and get a challenge out of it, it's a success. Yes it's that low, but its pretty hard for them to screw that up. Hell I actually enjoyed Diadem before it became only dino island (which was about... 1 day?)
