Thread: Patch 4.2 Notes (Preliminary)

Has anyone else noticed that SE is now putting in measures to prevent players from multi-boxing? The very last update is that you'll get logged out of one client if you sign into another.

As for MSQ, I do wonder if SE intends to tool it so that it's the best method to grind Soldery... the problem is there is nothing to spend Soldery on in SB content right now.

I read this as more of a QoL change for disconnects. Right now if you don't log out cleanly/disconnect and try to get back on sometimes it says that you are still logged in and now with the change I guess it might just auto boot that login? That would mean you could log back in faster instead of spamming it trying to get in until it actually goes through.

Soooo... Where to begin >.> Not doing MSQ roulette for leveling future jobs, that WAR wall followed by DRK is literally a David and Goliath in text form, SMN was dumped into a padded room, (permanently take all your gear) glamour dresser is basically being renamed weapon dresser in my head since weapons are instantly glamour when use is no longer needed and no other job will be able to use those weapons either, recycled zeta weapons is cheap in terms of keeping the relic weapon model unique to one aspect of the game, yay universal glamour prism and not having to hold onto clear prisms and all craft catalysts if a prism type is needed, plus a few other things. I don't know. There's more good than bad happening in this patch that has me happy, but damn, the bad that's there punched me in the gut.

Dark Knights got a buff in meme power, I'm impressed. Joking aside, someone did the math and we got a 0.5/6% dps increase and a QoL change that should have been there from the beginning.

You're failing your player base with changes like these as it's just showing pure ignorance at this point.

Certificates of commendation have been added as rewards for completing Wondrous Tails.
These certificates can be exchanged with Khloe Aliapoh for a number of unique prizes.

I wonder if this will be way to get 3 line rewards without getting 3 lines. I'm thinking get X amount of certificates based on how many lines you matched. Then save up certificates over multiple weeks to eventually get the 3 line rewards.

If that's the case, it might get more people invested in it again. Something like "hand in a journal and spend X certificates to get the next award compared to what you have". Granted the 2->3 jump would be the most expensive but then still doable, and you'd have to farm the certificates for a while before that, but hey, any new motivation to run WT is welcome

A thought on the housing change: Will all housing purchases be limited to FCs for a period? Or will that only apply to the new wards? What will they do if it gets too flooded with private houses being relocated? New wards will get private houses (unlikely many/all tho), and the plots released in old wards may still be available for private purchase, with the effect being less plots actually available for FCs than anticipated.

They said in the Live Letter that houses would only be limited to FCs for a set amount of time, however these patch notes seem to indicate that certain plots will always by FC-only. We should get a definitive answer when the special housing website goes live.
