Coil Turn 5 /weapon level 95 logic

[AlphaDragoon]

I have no problem with Allagan weapons being i95, it makes perfect sense considering it's the hardest fight in the game thus far.

What I and a lot of others are annoyed by is that armor and accessories which aren't i95 (and shouldn't be IMO) are still in the Turn 5 loot list. They should be moved off to Turns 1, 2 and 4, as it makes no sense to buff just armor that happens to be in T5 currently and equally no sense for it to be just as hard to get as the i95 weapons. Stuff like the Monk Allagan cuirass should be in the earlier turns SE, weapons in T5 only IMO.

I dont mind the look. But the run animation is kinda silly looking

Twintania is not an easy kill. Even with full i90 gear our party sometimes hits the enrage timer and beats her with seconds to spare. Not to mention the two weeks of practice it takes to master the fight (less now that so many videos are available.) Heck, even Turns 1, 2, and 4 are harder than Titan.

And killing Twintania is only the first step. You then have to hope your weapon even drops. It can take 1-20+ Twintania kills depending on how lucky you are. Then Paladins, Bards, and Black Mages (depending on your party set up) have to lot against each other. There's a good chance players may never even see their Allagan weapon drop before better weapons are released.

In my opinion the weapons should be:
Relic +1 - i85
Allagan - i95
2.1 Weapon - i90

It doesn't make sense to me that this new i90 weapon we get from Extreme Mode primals will be the same level as the weapon we got from Hard Primals (Relic +1). If anything, the Relic +1 needs to be i85 or this new weapon should be i95.

They were trying to have new servers catch up to legacy servers by lowering the materia requirement to the relic weapon. The only way they could have reduced the amount of relics is with the 1.0 method but this wasn't going to work for new servers considering how expensive and rare level IV materia was.

1.0 - 2-star item weapon with 2 tier IV materia melded (this had a very high failure rate and you took a chance of losing the weapon and materia)
2.0 - 1-star item weapon with 2 tier III materia melded (the item has two slots 100% guaranteed meld)

Just a while ago they said that the great majority of players havent beaten titan hm yet.
Seems they didnt expect people to do 30 wp.

ilevel 95 allagan pieces won't have stats changed - live letter

ilevel 95 allagan pieces won't have stats changed - live letter

It was a bad translation, the ilvl of an item determines it's stats. What he meant was it's itemization will not change so it will have the same stats it currently has, the stats themselves though along with wpdmg will increase to go along with the 5 ilvls.

I'm sure this will be debated to death till the patch comes out and people will be calling for dev posts to answer this before. But this is another "bad translation" on the live translation and mod translation side where they do not exactly understand what was meant. It is itemization that is not changing, nothing more, the stats will still increase.

[Pellegri]

This was just said again in part 2 of the live letter. Stats are being raised, itemization will remain the same.

[NeoAmon]

Yep Yoshida just said it again, the stats will stay the same but the numbers are going up to match the ilvl95 (so yes they are getting buffed).

#inb4 NeoAmon makes a thread crying about BLM Twintanai drop.
