Thread: 5.3 Preliminary Patch Note

Looks like they are trying to salvage Rival Wings. Speeding it up is a good start.

Not sure about 45 sec hold time for PvP... People are still shuffling the jobs for a bit. Maybe 60 sec? Either way, I appreciate them trying to speed PvP up.

*proceeds to get hyped beyond hype as I've boosted several jobs and missed job quests*



Wait what?! Only base game classes? Not even their job quests? Not any of the added jobs?
Why though?!
Godsdammit, I was so close... T-T

I wish they'd include an option to do just instanced battles and not have to run the entire quest line to do them. The role quests are an interesting addition and I hope they expand that more.

I suspect this is just the start and they'll add more with upcoming patches.

The invulnerability we get from raising now has a visible buff applied to us called Transcendent.

Aw... looks like they’re not gender-unlocking anything this time around. Ah well... maybe 5.4, maybe 2021.

Collectable Synthesis is going away completely. No more forgetting to turn it on when you start crafting collectables. All previous items that required it will no longer be a collectable.

I wonder if this means the Business Associate title will no longer be attainable.

All in all I am in favour of the Coincounter being changed. I 100% appreciate enemies not having telegraph markers, though it felt weird the first cyclops most players would fight would be the one with lethal attacks. A better change would have been to lower the damage and have vuln stacks, since it's still weird it's going to be doing more damage than basically any other cyclops in any dungeon, but hey I think we are better off now than we were before the patch.

I've heard theories that the coincounter aoes will be like the cyclops aoes in AA, in other words they only appear at the last moment more to let you know how you messed uo the mechanic. Sorta like starboard/larboard on Omega
