Instead getting terrible lag and "reserving instance" on mondays, we will have them on tuesday.... yep, good fix.

It's another time too. In germany it switched from 4.p.m. (where every1 is comming home or is home already) to 9a.m. (where most people are at work). Maybe it's similar in other timezones (switch from primetime to another time).
So today it is like: reset--->every1 starts instantly doing coil+cap.
with the new time it'll be: reset---->some people will start doing cap+coil and some hours later the rest will follow. So the server stress will split.

Thank you

Watch for all the people who will rage when they can't do T6 asap after 2.2. because they haven't beaten Twin.

I fully expected this, so did most of my FC, but you're right. There will be tears-a-plenty.

What I'm confused about is the way they are wording the DF for Coil 1-5. Am I reading this right? You can't enter Coil through DF without already having an 8-man party for 2 weeks? And then you can enter Solo after 2 weeks are up? Or do they mean party composition, such as you need to have the 2/2/4 like with CT?

Clarification, can you provide it?!

When I send them on tour to find something, are my items for sales still up while they are gone or do they need to be "home" to keep my sales up on the market board?

When I equip them, can I use the same items my combat classes or DOH/DOL do? Or do they need their own equipment?

They specifically said in the patch notes that if your retainer is out on a venture then you will still be able to sell your MB items and access your retainer with its full list of functions from Summoning Bell. Not sure about the equipment one...

Who said anything about end-game? The Unicorn is level 30, why should this be different and only available to hardcore end-gamers?

Unless they've logged every instance every character has done on ever class they can't know that .. and I cannot believe they've been logging that detail, except for statistical purposes in which case I doubt they'd keep the detailed records needed to do what you suggest.
