[patch1.22] Patch 1.22 Notes ARE UP!

I really, really hope this instance trend doesn't keep up once 2.0 hits. I don't mind having instanced content, but I'm a huge fan of open world content, and I hope they begin to put a little focus towards that. Perhaps it was simply a lack of research/being to hopeful, but I was under the assumption that the hamlets were to be an open world/multi party type of content

Also, I scrolled down to the "Battle" update tab expecting to find the PLD and WAR reforms...only to see that the casting animations for BRD were changed. Hmm.

There is focus on open world content too (Strongholds). But it seems that under the current servers the best experience can only be delivered through instances. Hamlets are multi-class-job instanced content =p, and btw, it's only instanced when the 25 hour timer is running.

Yoshi just posted in the JP forums saying the PLD reforms are coming in 1.22b.

Everyone is ignoring the block rate update
PLD will love that, I presume
