"Item level sync has been removed from the following dungeons:
The Wanderer's Palace / Amdapor Keep / Pharos Sirius / Copperbell Mines (Hard) / Haukke Manor (Hard) / Brayflox's Longstop (Hard) / Halatali (Hard) / The Lost City of Amdapor / Hullbreaker Isle / 'The Tam-Tara Deepcroft (Hard) / The Stone Vigil (Hard)

* Item level sync is scheduled to be reinstated in patch 2.5. At this time, materia bonuses will be granted to gear whose item level is below the item level sync threshold in PvE encounters."

<_< Wait so was someone having an issue beating the content in i120 gear?

They were having issues with all their materia being deactivated in crafted gear if they had so much as i111, regardless of what gear was pushing them above i110.

Didn't even need to hit i111, my war alt who is just now @ 105 average lost all his materia from i90 accessories.

they removed it because it wasn't working properly. Noticed it once while in an item synced dungeon that while it claimed it would sync the gear, if you opened the character screen you'd see it wasn't actually synced.

Wonder what these new aged and perfect items are for? Perhaps it the "spoiler" items?

Relic. Wouldn't be surprised.

I understand removing the positional requirement for impulse drive because of bosses like the kraken, but the heavy thrust one wasn't really required.


Huh, was wondering what the WAR relic would be renamed too. They took one of the FFXI greatsword names for it, which means that leaves Caledbolg as the relic for DRK in the expansion. Was a toss up between it being called Ragnarok or Caledbolg, but WAR gets Ragnarok.

Time to be server first Ragnarok! Lol.... yeah right.


Lol at removing the item sync...

I guess whatever they're hiding must be even MOAR epic.

Just quest turn-in items for the quests themselves are omitted. I, personally, would've included the names of the final weapons as spoilers, but I guess SE doesn't see it that way. EDIT: Unless there's another tier of weapons that goes up to i135.
