Patch 5.1 Notes (Preliminary)

[MitsukiKimura]

Not happy with the changes for AST. I feel like this was just a band-aid on a 3rd degree burn. Small potency buffs isn't going to change my mind about how the class feels. The card system needs a re-work. If they can manage to bring back bard's support in some manner of way, they can bring back the uniqueness of the Astrologian class with it's different card buffs. Might as well call them all "Balance" Cards because that's all they do right now.. really disappointed .

[Kyonika]

So... If Diadems are effectively being removed, how are we supposed to get the crafting mats from Trials of the Matron? And on that note, why were we not informed of this change earlier?

This also means that the Pegasus mount and Unicolt minion will no longer be obtainable, along with some glamour gear. Am I right?

First the Garo discontinuation, then the 1500 required commendations for battle mentor, and now this. To tell the truth, 5.1 will be the first major update of this game - ever - that I am actually dreading.

So we will get another Miqo'te for the custom deliveries... we are at 3 Miqo'te and 2 Au Ra then.

Meh.. It could be a red square with the text "Click here to deliver stuff" As long as I can complete the task and get the reward.

Red square not a yellow mark? Same boat NPC "blah blah blah" give me reward I have other NPCs to see.

Me: Yay they finally did a minimum ilvl on dungeons!

Gubal Library: 120
Castrem Albania: 260
Mt Gulg: 390

Also me: They. WHAT?! *internal screaming*

Are you forgetting that those dungeons can be ran by players who are levels 59, 69 and 79 respectively? The maximum ilvl that they could be going into those dungeons for the first time at those levels are 145, 285 and 415. And that's with a full set of crafted gear.

Gubal and Mt. Gulg ain't as bad but Albania is the scaling on SB leveling gear is a much bigger curve to a point a drg can have more defenses than a ilv270 tank so i'd say the SB ones need to be relooked at and adjusted others ain't so bad. But i'm happy we got some level of mitigation regardless \o/ no more ironworks for Holminster

Is it bad that the biggest issue I had with the ilvls listed is that Gubal is 120 instead of 130? We almost had a perfect multiplication table...

Depends on which gear they have. The i395 NQ GNB weapon has -11 WD, -30 STR and -31 Vit compared to the blue/green i390 weapons. The NQ chest piece has -108 Def, -27 STR and -30 Vit compared to the i390 blue/green chests. If they have weapons, chest or legs below the ilvl requirement, but have accs with ilvls to compensate, the difference will be even worse.

[Espritduo]

So what is this Collections thing they're adding to the Duty menu under Main menu? They mention it, but don't say anything about what it is? Did I miss an explanation of this in a live letter or something?

[Rhais]

No new hairstyles? I didn't see any in the notes.
