Preliminary Patch Note Speculation

[JonBigwood]

Just guessing, but "master crafting tomes" does not look as an involuntary mistake instead of master crafting books. Might it be there will be some tomes like the tomestones? But it says tomes and not tomestones, who knows?

About the body piece, it might be new body gear for each job will come instead of one for all. I don't think likely the best gear will be an all-class full set. Second best, maybe.

I think probably the ehcatl sealants will be easier to obtain, they are very expensive. But it does not say more oaknots will be given, just that additional rewards will be given. More oaknots would be a way to make them cheaper. Giving an ehcatl for an Ixal quest would be maybe too much. A new token? We'll soon see.

I hope the Lucis weapons won't be a huge grind but think they will probably be.

They said the requirements for 4 star books would not be made easier, but that new recipes would be of neither top nor intermediate level.

The changes about desynth look very nice, you can have 3 desynth classes maxed with no problem, and won't lose desynth if you are not yet capped.
