Thread: Patch 1.20 Notes (12/12/2011)

[QUOTE=Roxas;476609]Am I reading this right, I just woke up: "[dev1206] The effects of Protect and Shell have been made mutually exclusive, and one now overwrites the other." Does this mean we can't have protect and shell on both at the same time?[/QUOTE

Will it be over written based on who cast it? So caster A has to keep Shell up and Caster B has to keep Protect up. Or is it just 1 buff of that type at a time. Seems awfully strange for them to eliminate having both of them up. Maybe they want us to have to pop shell or protect on everyone when big boss monster is about to do their uber phys/magic type attack?

I'm a bit confused why Ifrit's Cane is keeping Attack magic potency. Being healer, I was really hoping to see healing potency on that thing. *sigh*

I read it once more the CON section seems to be miss translated or something, there is no shell spell on that list and them saying pro ans shell can be up @ the same time makes no effing sense.

I was actually thinking that the reason would be story based or something, not system limitations

Lets see, i start new in the game in LL and get achievements request to do stuff in Ul'dah like kill 100 amaja.

The whole con part seems messed to me also cause the stuff that should be Con only is not labeled even their traits.

I didn't notice that there was no shell in the spell list. It might that they made protect cover magic defense (with the trait "Enhanced Protect") so they could stick with their 15 actions, 10 traits format. Not sure if that's what they mean though.

It still seems like it is translated wrong or something. Three contradictions in the notes, one of them stats Pro and shell can be used at the same time, the second one stats that it will increase the magic defense of protect, and the last there is no shell.....

I thought they said Pro n Shell would be one spell. I guess i will just have to wait see.

I...I dont know what I'm going to do first on patch day lol

Ifrit weapons are for raw power. The moogle weapons will feature different stats. (what they are we will see)
