Thread: 5.3 Preliminary Patch Note

For new players coming through, it makes a lot more sense to force completion of CT at the point in the story when it's supposed to happen, i.e. shortly after the events at the Praetorium with Nero "newly unemployed" and still sore from his defeat there, and prior to his reappearance in post-Heavensward.

For anyone already past that point, there'll also have to be a second gate prior to 5.3 that no new player is going to hit.

I know, right?

I knew it was coming but I still hate the mandatory CT completion.

On my alts I never unlock it so that I dont get sucked into it for every alliance roulette. Now that isn't an option.

They need to address the ilvl cheese thing even more now.

Pudding Flesh can now be bought with GC seals, for the same price as a venture which could be used for up to 10 Pudding Flesh with a battle retainer.

Which takes one hour and is limited by how many battle retaines you have while you're drowning in GC seals if you do a dungeon every now and then.
I'm already drowning in Ventures, Grad 7 Materia, Cordials and other knickknacks, selling GC seal stuff regulary and still constantly at cap. It's nice to be able to buy at least one high level ingredient via GC seals.

Prel. 5.3 patch notes:
