The alliance functionality setup is about as half-baked as I was expecting. Can't even use it for Frontlines.
Here's to hoping 2.38 expands more on it to allow partial alliances (and add Frontlines) and that it isn't that far off of an update.

2.35 took essentially 5 weeks (+a couple of days since they don't patch over weekends) to drop after 2.3 so it's reasonable to guess that 2.38 would be the last week of September. The lack of full alliance for FLs is likely due to the potential imbalance issues that could come up (Full healer alliance anyone?). It's something they need to think about a little more than just fully ally queing into PvE raids since there's 48 people other than your own alliance in a FL match.
how does one get that new mount cuz it dosent say how to get it
(Secretly hoping for a ninja ATMA nerf....)
ST has a requirement of IL 70 iirc, so that's not something they'd be able to do there (at least not with ALL their gear). The example was referring specifically to LotA and Pharos.Do you really want an entire alliance wearing i45-49 stuff in ST? Honestly, I think this is a needed change.
Regarding ST though, something that probably ought to be done all around the board is that gear swaps should be prevented if they would bring you below the dungeon's IL requirement... that or gear swaps in instances should be prevented outright.
Because the open world doesn't drop you i100 gear, oils for i110 gear, or allagan tomes. It's not hard to figure out...I don't get why people don't just go spiritbond in the open world. It's easy and nobody has to carry you.
MMOs provide a lot to do. People wanna multitask.
I find it pretty fast and you dont have to leech off others.
You only need i70 to enter the instance, before this change someone could swap to full crafter gear and leech off those who don't do it. I'd love to see a 24 man CT or ST everyone wearing crafter gear, for those who keep saying they are not leeching.
Multitask while being carried, yeah no that's not how it should be.
It was a great change.
You missed the increase of B rank HP.I don't understand why they reduced rank B HP. At the first day of patch 2.3 i knew nothing about hunts, met lvl 50 monster (Stinning Sophie) and killed it. I was pld50 with class-job gear only equipped. The only ileveled item i had was i70 sword. I killed it solo in 7 minutes with my rank 8 chokobo as a healer.
So, single players could kill rank b alone with chokobo assistance before 2.35 w/o aid of other players, but there was no reasons t do this - much time, risk of death, etc
After the first patch the HP of B ranks was increased to alleviate the issue of the horde zerging them too fast, now they're back to being soloable like that Stinging Sophie you killed.
