Are we getting any new content in 1.22a other than Garuda fix?

[Zdenka]

This is what we are getting:

• Job-exclusive Weapons: Implementation of content for acquiring and upgrading job-exclusive weapons.
• Imperial stronghold: Construction of an imperial stronghold related to Meteor
• New imperial weaponry: Implementation of new imperial weaponry
• Job balance adjustments: Ongoing adjustments to job balance (This time: WAR, PLD and DRG for sure)
• Battle log revisions: Partial revisions to battle log spec

All taken from the Letter from the Producer, XXVI

Job Exclusive Weapons: Were never mentioned to be in 1.22a or 1.22b though from the sound of it 1.22b is more likely.
Imperial Stronghold: Same as JE Weapons, it was never specifically mentioned for patch 1.22a or 1.22b or 1.23 even.
New Imperial Weaponry: Is already in the game. It refers to the Magitek enemies you fight in the new company quests.
Job Balance Adjustments: Were mentioned to be in 1.22b.
Battle Log Revisions: Not sure about this one.

What we know 100% will be in 1.22a
-2 Remaining Hamlets

I don't think anything else was specifically mentioned to be in 1.22a; and most was hinted at for 1.22b. (If you think about it with Golden Week, not too much work was probably done between 1.22 and 1.22a) so 1.22a should be smaller I'd think than 1.22b.

Job-exclusive weapons -NEW-
Implementation of content for acquiring and upgrading job-exclusive weapons.

* In final stage of cost estimation. High likelihood of a 1.22a release.

Weapons will be tomorrow most likely.

Weapons will be tomorrow most likely.

And yet my entire post is accurate.

You realize with golden week that they only worked on this patch for mayyyyyybe a few days on 1.22a which seems to be mostly bug fixes with Hamlets 2/3 and the items associated with them (like Coke is bought at Hrystmill, the items for the other 2 sets are bought at these 2 hamlets).

It was way to unrealistic to think alllllllll this stuff was going to be in 1.22a given the amount of time they had to work on it.
