Preliminary patch notes are up

[MeoTwister5]

That was supposed to be humorous but since I suck at such things...

Anyway apparently I lack patch reading comprehension. Hopefully Exploration DF won't be populated with the same stereotypical lot in standard dungeons DF.

But it's not a verified nerf. That's what *you* aren't getting.

It's currently a dps loss to use, it's awkward and clunky to use, and in no way reliable. On top of it, it's useless as OT.

And no, nothing in Alex normal that it would work on is worth using it on. Nothing in Normal is so bad where anyone would say, "man, I wish I could have pacified that."

But keep trying. It's lack of use is why they're changing it. Fact.

I don't know how you guys do those 2 runs all the time for eso. Do some pvp get in there, easy runs for tombs.

I see what you did there... With all those deaths, tombs are a natural result. Though I think you meant tomes ^_~

Saw the new color dyes in the preview screenshot but didnt see them listed in the patch notes. Maybe i missed it

Well, it's only the preliminary patch notes; not everything is listed, and in particular the list of items added. But I hope that the new tradable dyes won't be Mogstation, but ventures (or MGP, I guess). To have Mogstation items tradeable would just open up a whole new can of worms ^^;

Why did they increase the item level of default race gear from one to five?

There is a very early story quest where you need gear with an ilvl of 5. It was changed so that the quest can be completed with the gear one starts with.

Originally, it was you needed to equip 5 left hand of level 5 gear, as item level wasn't a thing at launch. Now that it is a thing, now it's more focused on item levels than the actual equip level.

Err... What? Where did they mention that? O.o The only "level 5" search (which would include "item level 5") in the patch notes brings up the adjustment to the main scenario quests “Dressed to Call,” “Passing Muster,” and “Prudence at This Junction”.

I never use those skills after 3.0 and still my TP burn faster than DRG or BRD. This isn't helping me at all! Also with less mudra lag making me burn x1.5 faster than before! Need Aeolian Edge back to 50 TP!

So you don't use your dots?

nope, it makes my dps slower and lower, coz tp burn too fast as well so not worth for dots
