Patch 3.38 Discussion

[Kotemon]

Maybe this will lower the AH price if those items are still there. Good thing I kept that penny and farthing from last week.

HAHAHAHAHAHA i feel so bad for the millions of gil wasted on anima weapons.

Hello there!

I just read the patch notes and i've a problem (or doubt..)

I was taking my time to take the 80 objects needed for the Anima Weapon, and i was going for 1 at a time.

At this point i have something like 20 Bones, and 17 Seeds, what am i supposed to do with them?

(I only have 1 class at 60, and i don't think i'll ever do another Anima Weapon..)

Are they complete garbage at this point?

The anima step is now what it should have been from the very beginning.

Ehh, I wouldn't go that far. This more or less turns the 210 Step into a complete joke. Fine when it's nine months old, but had they done it initially, you'd basically have a Savage equivalent weapon for a fraction of the effort. That being said, pre-nerf was far too monotonous.

I sold so many materia V from WC runs just so I could afford to buy the HQ items. Now I just wanna kick myself in the ass. Especially since I'm gearing myself up with materia V's for DRG.

If you really never make another anima, then yeah. But I recommend holding onto them or storing them if you have the space, just in case you change your mind.
Playing other classes can be a nice change of pace. Or maybe you'll just see a weapon that you think -looks- really nice. Glamour is the true endgame for many.

Yes and no. If you have no intent on doing another Anima, then yes. As you now only require ten per upgrade. That being said, I do recommend keeping them since you never know if another job might interest you.

Dang it SE, I was just finished with my WHM and now you tempt me to get another one.... ._.

This is the reason they make it time consuming.

A4S was broken in mechanics, and A3S was brutally difficult, balance is required in content when comparing similar Ilevels from different areas in content. Releasing a weapon with the same Ilevel as the Raid Weapon and it's simple to get compared to the Raid weapon will ruin the game for the majority of raiders. It will remove the whole point of even doing it.

Edit: The main reason why they moved the Raid weapons back to 5 Ilevels higher compared to highest weapons in the current content. Working down a Raid boss isn't as easy as it looks when you attempt to progress the final floors. Well, ignoring this current Raid patch (Except A8S) and Final Coil.

I'll tempt you even more! If you just do ARR Beast tribes, you'll have three Unidentifiable stacks in ten days, plus 900 poetics to buy three more on your last stack. Toss in a HW beast tribe and you can do three 210s a month. It's insane.
