Thoughts about the LL?

[Khryseis_Astra]

Changes to deep dungeon sound promising, and it’s Il Mheg, so I’ll probably do it. Phoenix Down changes are nice. But the added starting points? Why not let you start from any 10-floor set? And didn’t see anything about increasing the number of saves… if that’s still going to be a thing?

Lots of cool glams, mounts and minions: they’re winning there. Treasure dungeon looks really good. Gpose changes look interesting. New CC map and the ability to take a friend is nice.

But severely disappointed that housing updates are being pushed again. Especially when they said last LL, we’d be getting details today. Failing that we should have gotten an explanation as to what exactly they’re trying to do and why it is taking so long. From past statements, it’s the item increase that has now been put off twice. The “housing mirage” or “Tardis housing” was never given a firm timeline, just something they want to do. So are they holding back item limits to do mirage at the same time? If so, say so… but really no reason to wait on the item limit increase for that when we’ve been hearing about it since well before DT launch.

And of course, the expected disappointment that as of yet, they’re not planning for a Normal version of FTB… I couldn’t care less about chat bubbles or Mahjong.

Wouldn't a chat bubble disappear before you get chance to read a long-winded speech anyway? That's the reason I would find it pointless.

I don't know what they've set as the default time before the bubbles disappear but in general for anyone who can read reasonably quickly that should only be an issue for EXTREMELY long messages which aren't that common. They are however commonly longer than two lines.

I like the phoenix down update; it relieves some pressure from healers not to die while learning content when there isn't a SMN/RDM in the party.

On the other hand, SMN/RDM may lose some of their utility and need, so hopefully they compensate those jobs in some way also.

[Aviatorhead]

I'm mad about how they handled the housing topic. If it's not done, fine, but don't bait us saying you'll talk about it only to give us nothing.

But the pheonix down changes was something I really wanted for a long time, so I'm somewhat happy.

Is it that hard to make them last longer, proportional to the amount of text? Or just giving us the option to set the length at least? Why is this a problem?

I believe this change was a precursor to the eventual removal of SMN Raise

Couldn't follow all of it, however:

- Most of the glams look great
- I really like the look of the Meso Terminal dungeon, and that hologram effect which jumps between both 'versions' of Living Memory should be interesting!
- Phoenix Downs being made useful is interesting.... though I suspect it'll result in premade teams without Healers.... because probably not much point in taking Healers if you can just take several tanks carrying XXX Phoenix Downs
- DD looks great although not sure it's content I'll partake in - partly due to my skill limitations and partly because it requires time commitment I don't have.

I'd rather have them keeping SMN and RDM's raises... but maybe with a shorter recast time and instant. Something like being just a job perk of a "bonus Phoenix Down" rather than an identity defining aspect that impacts their dps severely.

[Auro_Seldaris]

So once again - for the fifth time in a row - we will get a storyline finale dungeon that is a phantasmal/holographic recreation of the villain's long-lost home, where they will explain their sad backstory and why their homeland was so wonderful and great and deserves to be the ONLY thing that exists, and trauma dump onto us as they cope with their inability to let go of the past.
Just like Amaurot.

And Dead Ends.

And Lunar Subterrane.

And Alexandria.

The only difference this time is Calyx is a scientist so he won't be quite as maudlin and whiny about it as other villains.

As much of a Shadowbringers simp as I am, I am begging you, SE... Get some new material.

[Rithy255]

I dislike the phoniex down changes cuz the only fun time i had healing was on paladin keeping two dps alive.

Though it is what it is I don't play the game for casual dungeons lol.
