That's...Incredibly interesting.

Question about some terminology:

- Hairstyle and face paint options obtained as rewards are now marked accordingly at the aesthetician.

This is written at least 3 times in the patch notes... but I'm not aware of any optional face paints. Are there some in game already (legacy or mogstation... I wouldn't have these most likely) or does this indicate that it's probably something we'll be seeing as vanity rewards in 5.0 content?

There was a facepaint given during one of the all saints wake events a few years ago.

All Saint's Wake (2014) it seems. I started playing in Feb 2015 so I missed it.

Is that really it?
It would be nice if they did add more as reward options in 5.0 then.

I'd assume it will be for upcoming items.

The only non hairstyle related item that would fit anything for that I can think of is the meteor survivor tattoo for legacy players.

I don't really see the issue with things like that, tbh. High risk, high reward approach is totally valid to me.

It's not like the LB3s win the fight for you either... nowadays on most raid bosses a LB3 will only do somewhere between 1-2% of their health, if that. This isn't "Souleater + Blood Weapon + Kraken Club against Absolute Virtue" tier or anything.

Uhmmm. What is the sense in having self heal, reduced or not, in Great Hunt EX, if on second phase healing skills don't heal you..?
