Thread: 4.1 Patch Notes (Preliminary)

The weekly reward for clearing rabanastre gives you 1 cluster/week in comparison you can get 3 and half from just daily hunts in a week (granted you won't get tomes for the upgrade item but you can get one from rabanastre anyway)
My problem is that only 1 cluster for a weekly is to few when other sources as said are much more generous on that

They added Clusters to Leveling Roulette to get more tanks running Leveling Roulette. This way it continues to keep it relevant, while still giving rewards in the 24-man. I don't understand the issue here? You're peeved at getting extra rewards? You think you deserve more rewards? You get a 330 > 340 upgrade for doing AFK content. . .

Maybe you are right and I'm overthinking on this, just saying that it hit me a bit strange

In this patch you're also suppose to be able to trade centurio seals for books, which can be traded for creation upgrade items (Similar to most other patches of this nature). That takes away a source of Materia VI for DPS.

(I don't remember seeing this in the patch notes, but that's not unusual. Anything which effects in-game currencies are normally omitted until the full patch notes.)

This is an mmo - it's meant to be played with your fellow players - not some automated bunch of npc bots.

im really hyped for this and i dont see much problem at all oAo it's up to their playstyle if they want to play solo or not..
can't deny that players will try it when it's up but not like everyone gonna go hermit and dont communicate anymore...lol

people has their own purpose...can't just say that MMO is only meant to be played with fellow players all the time.
ofc MMO = online game...but are you saying that people who want solo shouldnt play it?
some play for story and some play because they're bored and need something to occupy.
also it will be a good change of pace when you dont want social and just want to be alone at the time.

i do have FC mates and friends to run contents with but sometime i want to run alone and DF is just like "hi" "tyfp" anyway
it's not like i need to make friends with all the players i met...

Dungeons with ai at my own pace? Yes please.

Someone can give me the link about moving fc house ? Forgot how we will do...and no want lose our actual FC m because of a error...

Squadrons will probably be better than most pug groups. Tanks that can hold agro, and heals that dps.

Glamouring them is now the ultimate end game too.

because it takes too much time to copypaste the flying animation from Pegasus to the primal ponies.

Yes becuase MMOs mean you should be forced to team with other players for every moment of your game experience, especially since this game does that for most of the MSQ- oh wait most of it is solo instances..

On another note I'm liking the class buffs and QoL changes.

It'd actually make sense if Squadrons were even useful for MSQ...but they're not. It's for dungeons you've already done and out leveled. I kinda expected this to be their Prae/Castrum solution they hinted at for 4.1....
