Just a game. I reiterate. FOR FUN. Wait for notes and non-fun threads, nothing in here is (hopefully) real!

- Three star crafting's required crafting skill has been reduced to be closer to one star.

rogue weapons end up having ridiculously low base DMG relegating it to ffxi's thf in terms of dd potential.

* Final Coil of Bahamut has six new cutscenes, each about 40 minutes in length. Time Limit for Dungeon: 60 minutes.

* Weekly lockout mechanic applied to every dungeon in the game. Lockout can be reset using consumable potions only available in the cash shop for $5 each.

* Rogue/Ninja can use Mug skill to steal items from other players. "Working as intended."

* Exploit is found which causes "wardrobe malfunction" for Shiva. Ultra-conservative politicians band together to have FFXIV shut down.

* New FATE: "Vaan Returns: Final Fantasy XII." Vaan randomly appears in town, repeatedly shouting "I'm Captain Basch von Ronsenburg of Dalmasca!!!" No way to complete the FATE, Vaan's shouting continues indefinitely.

Me too! But I'm doing my 24-hour protest strike before the patch hits.

I can one up that.

The next relic weapon involves recollecting all 12 atma. You must upgrade each one of those with 12 books each to upgrade the atma to atma animus. After that, you will upgrade those using 75 demimateria for each atma animus. When that's done, the atma novus becomes equippable in your job crystal slot. You must then collect 2000 light for each atma novus. Finally,there's a 5 second window each day that you trade all twelve atma nexus and your weapon to Jalzahn.

You will then get your weapon, which glows as brightly as a nightlight. With no stat increase.
