Thread: 2.15 Patch discussion

To be perfectly fair the Thornmarch fight is more complicated than Ultima HM. Considering that people don't really farm Thornmarch for weapons like they do Ultima for accessories, it follows that there won't be the same amount of higher level players wanting to participate. Seems like it's simply a change to make it a bit easier to complete the content, because the initial influx of higher level players doing it has now subsided.

Mechanically, the fight for Thornmarch isn't too hard. However when I did try it for the first time(mind you, I had an average ilvl of 80ish), I did feel I was getting hit a bit harder than I should have been, considering the minimum ilvl requirement is 54. There were a few times where I felt that if I was using an ilvl of 54, that many attacks I got hit by, I would not have survived. In retrospect, it would've been interesting to test this, and run the fight with said ilvl, but alas, I cannot now. Personally though, the ilvl requirement felt a bit too low, and since it's a story mission, many players will need to finish it in order to unlock future content. On a brighter note, they can always make the extreme mode version far more difficult for side quests. As far as the nerf goes though, for all we know, the king and his little subjects just took a damage nerf, and sustained little to no mechanical changes.

Well I'm not psychic. I guess you are? I've been playing when I can and doing the content I felt like doing in the order I felt like doing it. Sorry for not realizing that thornmarch was the magical instance that would get the nerf hammer out of the tons of content that was released again only 4 weeks ago. I guess I should have known with all the talks of how incredibly hard it is.... oh wait.

Sorry for being snarky but I'm just so tired of this shit. Every mmo these days shuffles people along and if you don't play at their set paced you get screwed over. If you go too fast you get bored if you go too slow you get dumbed down snoresville content and get bored. I just want to see and attempt the content as the designers intended it. I don't see why I should be denied that.

* Players can only obtain one Dimension Blade fragment per week.

I wonder if that's the same roll as for the gear or a separate one?

When queuing to join a party in progress, the party's current progression will no longer be shown by the Duty Finder.

Thank the Twelve.

Edit: Gah, it's only the Labyrinth of the Ancients! They should send the Tonberry Stalker after people who keep dropping out of the DF.

I consider the thornmarch nerf riddiculous. I one shotted this on my frist time with the fc, although dont remember how many of us were overgeared.
