Thread: 3.3 patch notes Full

I can't help but be a little salty, as I'm almost positive SE left out how we were going to buy the new red scrip gear until they brought the game down. I'm sitting on 38 or so red scrip tokens, and it feels as though they just wanted to add the new Goblin items to screw over people who wanted to preempt this patch.
I guess I'll use my stockpile of red tokens to buy the final two blue token fishing books I never cared to get? :/

Since some folks still seem to be confused, here's a simplified rundown of the scrip changes:
- BLUE SCRIPS can buy: All the things they bought before, and now they can also buy Rowena's Tokens (Blue Scrip).
- RED SCRIPS can buy: All the things they bought before, and now they can also buy Goblin items. Be careful not to buy Rowena's Tokens (Red Scrip) anymore! These are now a huge waste of Red Scrips (unless you're super hard-up for materia).
- ROWENA'S TOKENS (BLUE SCRIP) can buy: All the things Rowena's Tokens (Red Scrip) could buy before. Essentially, there is no longer a weekly cap on buying the previous endgame gear. It is also much easier, as Blue Scrips are much easier to come by.
- ROWENA'S TOKENS (RED SCRIP) can buy: Tier IV Materia and Rowena's Tokens (Blue Scrip). Basically, you can convert your old Red Scrip tokens into Blue Scrip tokens, and thereby purchase the same stuff you could buy with Red Scrip tokens before.
- GOBLIN ITEMS can buy: All the new gear. They are, essentially, the new Rowena's Tokens (Red Scrip).

Just as with DoM/DoW gear, SE works actively to discourage anyone from getting a big "head start" on higher-tier gear. This doesn't come as any surprise to me. It IS nice that they gave us something to do with our stored Red Scrip tokens.

Yea, I'm not surprised much either. Just wish they mentioned the Goblin items in the Preliminary notes, so we would know not to buy any tokens before the reset. I (now obviously) stupidly just assumed, since no mention of new "tokens", it would be more red tokens and bought all 9 weekly red tokens.
