    I liked the patch notes, no major complaints but I still wish they'd give us a mail box. Just recently a good friend decided to try the game and when he figured out you can't trade broken gear and you can't send stuff between characters he decided this game likely isn't for him. It's good they are adding tutorials but the game still lacks some very standard MMO features that are still killing the entire game for some people.

    True, but at least I can still take comfort in the fact I wont smack anything I sleep and dont get away or put the weapon away fast enough.

    it's probably a typo but one of the company's Patriot bands gives spiritbond rate +11 instead of just +1 like the other cities.

    Hmm either way it will be an upgrade. Insta-cast (but you still have to wait for the spell to "resolve") will be nice for nuking and attending to other duties like healing. Hopefully it's both.

    As I said in the other thread, while going from passive to active might not seem like it takes that much skill, it's just one more thing you can mess up. My... dislike (hate is way too strong a word) of this has to do with other areas than what you mentioned. I like to push the skills of timing and judgment to the limit, whether soloing or with a familiar group. As it stands now, a mis-stroke of simply taking too long going from passive to active can get me in trouble. Now, I won't have that problem, and I actually would rather have it there.

    Anyway, that's the last I have to say about this. I didn't mean for it to turn into a discussion.

    Just read the notes. I am optimistic, however I will have to see everything in context before I get excited/upset about it.

    I am very impressed with how organized the notes were though. Glad they gave quite a bite of detail as to how things are going to work and such. Good job team, looking forward to trying out the hard work you guys put into it...

    May I make a suggestion though...{Search Party Funtion} {Can I have it?} {Yes, please!}

    Indeed I feel that a search function is critical to have in the next big patch, especially since we are going to have 3 Beastmen stronghold to raid, 3 dungeons, Ifrit Battle and HNMs, not to mention the fact that parties should be getting even more popular with those sexy exp bonuses

    Yes please +1 Also there will probably be more dungeons/raids in next big patch. Not to mention another primal fight. so we'll have even more reason to group than we already have.

    Yeah, the thing is, what would everyone be looking for in a party search funtions when implemented? Are they looking for something from FFXI or something from WOW or Rift? Just curious. I never played WOW but heard of the search funtion, and I never got far enough into Rift to try it out, though I do know a little of how they work, and I am a vet of XI, so I know how that works...and even though it worked fairly well, for me I would have to say that the XI style of the party search feature is not my first choice.

    Any ideas though? Seriously?
