Void Ark Preview

[Colorful]

Both your and Felis' math is slightly off.

There are 4 bosses in the 24 mans and each drops a chest for each party for a total of 12 equipment drops per run. Gobdips, Gobcoat and Gobtwine will also be in the chests (with alternative lock outs) so depending on which chests give out which tokens and how many of each are given out the total number of rewards per run could easily be 18 to 30.

How do you know they won't be part of a weekly quest of some sort? Don't think SE has confirmed it quite yet.

I fully agree with Nadirah, I don't want to be burnt out on the raid the week of release. If I have to run it 40 times to get the piece of gear I want, you'll bet it'll turn into a tedious grind. That's fine and all, but if it's the first week? It should be a guaranteed token system similar to Bis/Rav Extreme, or similar to the updated system of Alexander. You can bet I'll enjoy the content a whole lot more if I only have to run it 1-3 times a week.

Thi is not 100% sure. They can be again a reward from a weekly 24man raid quest like last time

I don't think people are spun up enough about being allowed 1 piece of loot from 24 mans, so I thought I'd point out that Alexander Savage actually drops more than 2 items per week when you take into account the Manifestos. A1S for example drops 2 pieces of gear + 8 Manifestos total for the party. And since 4 Manifestos trade for 1 accessory, it averages out to 4 pieces of gear per week. A4S is 3 pieces of gear, not even counting the Esoteric upgrade items. Cheers

It would be better if it dropped 1 item per class type i.e. 1 tank 1 healer 1 DPS. Since sometimes I'll be the only bard, caster, etc. I am guaranteed gear but tanks and healers always get screwed in that regard.

Tbh I really really wish se would stop pairing BLM gear and smn gear up for these type of dungeons cause its not always what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Meaning its not always what's good for BLM is gonna be good for smn. So please se separate the caster gear in these types of dungeons I'm begging you. Oh and I have cookies for you if you do so .

I was thinking about this as well, most gear from is blm/whm oriented, it would be nice if there was a smn/sch oriented gear set.

You know, since Diabolos is a boss, I was kind of hoping we'd get Diabolos themed armor like the FF x MH collaboration.

Man personally I think this is a step backwards with gear. Of course they are trying to implement new looks so some people will dig it, I think those caster sets might be the best. It definitely goes from left to right Monk, caster, healer, ninja, ranged, dragoon, tank. The monk and ninja gear are sort of swaps of each other in places, the caster gear definitely is, the dragoon gear is obvious, the tank gear is obvious, that leaves the frayed, torn up gear as the mch/brd gear. I will be clearing it for possible upgrades to secondary and glamming over it asap.

Since Heavensward seemed to embrace rewarding you with tokens, rather than leaving everything up to the all mighty RNG, I was kind of hoping, since Sky Pirates were mentioned, Void Ark would instead drop tokens we trade in for Sky Pirate themed gear...

Though come to think of it, Sky Pirate themed gear would probably just be Pirate themed gear, and I think we already have that covered...

I would of liked this more also. CT definitely had some cool looking gear, and the ones based off the bosses were pretty awesome despite some not looking so great. The Void Ark set doesn't look bad, it just looks like not much effort was put in.

Unfortunately, I read that the loot lockout will be similar to CT's. You can get 1 Armor Item per run and 1 Upgrade item per run. For a total of 2 items for that week.
