Patch Notes Up

[Marisela]

From reading the Patch Note, so the next relic grind is just another Copy and Paste of the Nexus Light farm? Doing Dungeon and Primal get like 1 or 2 light? What a disappointment. Well, at least I have a choice to spam other content instead of dungeon for a low drop rate. I don't think I can grind another Dungeon after the previous Zodiac Quest.

Its resource management, as has been stated many times before. TP-based DPS get Goad or Paeon. Very rarely will Ballad be played in Coil situations, but one of those 2 TP abilities will always be given.

Well, Ballad DOES get played, but usually for the healers, not the summoner.
A good bard can make a summoner shine like a newborn star...at the cost of shaving 20% off his/her own DPS.

Yes, exactly. Ballad usually only gets played in situations where either A) The BRD cannot DPS, such as during Flames phase on T12, or B) The healers are almost depleted. Typically scenario B doesn't happen unless mistakes are made, and A is fight specific. Paeon on the other hand will always be played if there is no Goad available and the BRD or other Melee DPS is out of TP.

I'm curious as to what is being dat-mined when the patch isn't even ready for download yet.

It was mined from the last patch.

Initial data mining already pointed out it will be 12 new atmas + light farm

And someone mentioned about light farming for every atma, and IIRC the data mining hinted at that too.

it's not because nexus was 2k light that everytime they add a light farm it have to be 2k for each item you need to farm light.

farming 166 light for each mahatma isn't more work than farming 2k once.

also when they add the books for animus they added 2/3 books for each IG stat, that didnt mean you had to farm all existing books (possibility: each mahatma is tied to a stat and you only need to farm those for the stats on your weapon)

Not maybe, it is sure.
I look all the languages of patchnotes when they are released.
In the French patchnote, this item is called "Odin's Skjoldr". So no doubt

Safe to say I'm going to be spending all my time collecting all the cards...

it's not because nexus was 20k light that everytime they add a light farm it have to be 20k for each item you need to farm light.

farming 1666 light for each mahatma isn't more work than farming 20k once.

also when they add the books for animus they added 2/3 books for each IG stat, that didnt mean you had to farm all existing books (possibility: each mahatma is tied to a stat and you only need to farm those for the stats on your weapon)

i want to think you mean 2k light, not 20k. to get nexus, its was 2000 light.
