Thread: Patch 2.56 comming April 21

Would gladly take a Nexus light farm buff. I know we already got a light gain buff, but farming for 2000 light still seems pretty long lol. Be nice if they could cut it from 2000 pts to 1500 or something.

It's actually not that bad. Farming 2000 Light meant 83 runs of non-bonus ST/WoD. Add in bonuses here and there, one could potentially do it in 40 hours or so, maybe. Someone (a regular office worker) in my FC finished the Nexus in like two weeks by always chasing bonus content. It takes some dedication but if you don't look at the goal, just keep progressing it's actually quite quick.

(...says the guy who's been sitting at less than 200 Light for 2 weeks...)

Well I don't mind grinding 2000 Light. I could get 2000 light probably in 3-4 days. I mean if I did mind it, why else would I have grinded 3 Nexus's with a 4th one coming lol. Just saying it would be nice but if not still be okay o3ob

It used to take more than 9 hours to get one atma for many people. For some it took weeks.

People have it so easy now. I farmed a full set in about 4-5 hours.

I wish they changed it that each book contains one group of objects to do like kill 50 enemies in this nation here and another 50 here. At least make it unique a bit.

Animus isn't too bad if you open up your Zodiac quests again. Sometimes you get lucky with the dungeons that cross over between the two. When I did Aurum Vale for my book, I also got the Zodiac drop from it. Score! ;3

All of my yes please on this.

I'm pretty sure abandoning friends isn't a virtue that is going to change people's minds about content such as coil. That people feel the need to make these decisions seems pretty wrong IMO. Being on the business end of it feels even worse.
