Thread: Patch 3.5 Notes (Preliminary)

I can't find the full list of new dungeon gear items, am I missing something? It's a link that doesn't work for me.

They'll be in full patchnotes, which are released when game goes to maintenance for patch 3.5.

I'm positively thrilled they've fixed 2 of the biggest problems with triple triad. Now if they could just fix the card drop rate from old dungeons (I have run Snowcloak 10 times still no Fenrir card) I will be a happy potater.

My friend had to run the Aery over 300 times to get the Nidhogg(?) card. He did some trials too, no luck.

RNG is so fun!

I got lucky and got my Nidhogg card on my clear of his normal mode trial, but the overall drop rates seem to be unnecessarily low. I've seen the unicolt drop more often in the Vault than the Charibert card, which I also don't have, even though I do that dungeon at least 4 times a week.

They could put some of the old boss cards on the battlehall npcs too, that'd give more reason to go there on top of the tournaments.

Also only 5 quests for MSQ? They better have some long cut scenes because that is a very small amount. I know there will be Part 2 but its still small :/

Maybe it's because I have looked at patch notes for 3 years now I expected like 3/4 of it already lol

Actually, I think this is a very good thing. They are adding a lot of QoL improvements prior to StormBlood. I am sure that a lot of the writing and design focus for content is on StormBlood right now, but the team that works on the core game and UI can be steaming ahead with QoL, performance and stability enhancements ahead of the SB launch. SB will be that much better with all those small improvements.

Plus the group pose and camera stuff should keep some people busy for months.

Speaking of performance I wonder when the PS4 Pro's extra GPU resource will be enabled in this game? Not that it affects me at the moment, since I an not a PS4Pro owner - yet.

And why not? With the ridiculous explosion in the taking and sharing of selfies in the real world, it seems only natural that people would want to do the same in Eorzea. Plus, screen shots are fun, making better screenshots is even more fun.

So when is this going live?
