Patch 3.5 Notes (Preliminary)

[Bourne_Endeavor]

The new crafts will be ridiculously higfh level that only 5 people in a server can make them. I guarantee.

Sucks that the paintings are relative to your Sightseeing log, seeing as my sightseeing log is EMPTY.

Same, tried to do couple earlier - somehow it didn't register and weather changed afterwards so I "missed" it.

But guess I'll have to try them again now..

Here is a link where every sightseeing log is listed and when their availability is: http://vistas.explorexiv.com/
And here's a video to help with the harder jumps pictures don't illustrate as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKTh8aDjj2A&t=489s
This link is for Heavensward ones: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...ghtseeing_log/

MrHappy also has videos if those help. Anywho, happy sightseeing log hunting!

I took a closer look at the patch notes and was surprised at the changes made to gatherer/crafter xp gain. This might actually convince me to get back into that if the increase is good enough.

I was almost crying at the possibility to turn my hotbars.....now if they just wouldn't waste time in the gpose "feature"

I wouldn't consider the gpose feature a waste of time I find it quite useful but then again I take a lot of screenshots

They really like to push this group pose/screenshot feature don't they....

Have you used it recently? I found it pretty pointless when first implemented, but after the previous update to it, I started having a lot of fun messing around with it. So I'm really looking forward to the additional updates in 3.5, and I hope to see being able to run Weapon and Job Skills in a future update. But then, I'm also the sort who also puts a fair deal of concern in building their character's appearance. So if you aren't into the "Fashion Fantasy", "Glamour is True End Game" attitude, then I suppose I can see how it wouldn't matter.

Still, I'd say it's much more fun to mess around with than some real wastes of dev time and attention. Like Verminion.

I love collecting these for the little tidbits of lore, can't wait to see what the deal is with the FFVI battle sprite Magitek Armor is.

As I understand it correctly, if you eat two of the same food in a row it'll have double duration?

Indeed, providing it is identical. It also stacks with FC actions but I don't know if that is a double stack (eg 30 + 30 + 10 + 10) or a single (30 + 30 + 10). Either way it's a great addition!

I don't know, I am a very eager glamour person and I pay a lot of attention to aestetics in-game but I don't care much about this feature. I like to take screenshots on occasions but in general i don't care a bunch.

The Far Edge of QoL

There are so many QoL in this patch I was honestly also disappointed at the same time lol. Hope the full release has some better details. Nothing in the preliminary excited me really. Also only 5 quests for MSQ? They better have some long cut scenes because that is a very small amount. I know there will be Part 2 but its still small :/

Maybe it's because I have looked at patch notes for 3 years now I expected like 3/4 of it already lol

MSQ is being split in half, hence the lack of quest. So we won't see the rest of the story til most likely March.
