    was hoping to try that "tank the adds at the entrance" technique before any nerfs.
    I did that once. Works pretty well, but didn't feel like it worked better than other methods (took 3 goes to clear using it with half the group new, so, average). Basically just need the entrance healer to be good and the tanks to be well geared for vit. Con is it takes off tank off cannons so you lose a DPS to cannons, and the ishgardian reinforcements run back to the adds and die instead of helping DPS Vishap (which they will do if you kill the mini-bosses before they kill all the reinforcements. Seemed to add a lot of damage the one time I got them to stay alive, mostly). Pro is that cannons and DPS have nothing to worry about except shooting/stabbing/whatevering Vishap. With a decrease in Vishap's HP and increase in cannon damage, the DPS losses shouldn't really matter so it might become the strongest meta now?

    They've already said they ain't gonna. I, personally, wonder if Poetics (and soldiery) will even disappear after Heavensward. New players leveling through from scratch might still like tomes to get them to i90 to do the story line faster/more reliably, and people who don't buy Heavensward immediately might like for them to remain as part of end game.

    There will be two new tomestones right off the bat. So yes, Poetics will disappear once Heavensward goes live.

    For level 60 gear, yes.

    That doesn't help people who buy FFXIV next month and need to hit i90 to do Chrys/SoF in order to access Heavensward, or who don't buy Heavensward for a month or whatever.

    I kinda think they're being kept for those that don't purchase Heavensward right away. *shrugs*

    Some reported interviews have them saying that i130 will be good until level 55 and that Soldiery and Poetic gear will be staying on to be one of the primary sources of gear between levels 50 and 55.

    The amount of time it takes to level in this game is so small. I hope they raise the required exp per level by a ridiculous amount or this whole keeping poe locked so people aren't over geared is silly.

    I know they said they wouldn't when 2.5 came out. But I figured that by this point they might have reconsidered considering we're at nearly a month until Heavensward. There's roughly only 2,400 more Poetics left to get until the expansion and I was hoping to upgrade at least my weapons from i110 to i130 (especially on classes I REALLY don't play like WAR and DRG because I don't want to take i135 weapons from my static when they actually play those classes). And 2,400 Poetics is only enough for one i120 weapon since you need those stupid ticket things.

    I kind of hope they're not removed, but they have removed Tomes in the past (basically any time we get new ones). Perhaps you won't be able to obtain Sol/Poe when you're 60 but only the new Tomes instead and any classes under 60 can still collect them. Considering i130 gear is supposed to take you pretty far (like until around level 55), it wouldn't make much sense to just get rid of them.

    So much for upgrading my side classes with anything decent.

    yay patch 2.565.

    Pony music is a plus...not that i use it for much since most group content is instanced.
    Sof nerf is nice i guess, it's kinda a double edged sword though.
    Fcob echo is what i wanted, now maybe i can convince more friends to go in with me lol.
