5.3 COMPLETE patch notes

Kinda don't expect them to fill in any gear for the Aetherials being removed. But yeah, it does leave a bit of a gap in several places. But, being ARR, players that can't/don't upgrade for a couple dungeons don't really hold anything back too terribly much.

Since collectable synthesis is being removed, please can someone explain to me how we will synthesize collectables moving forward? Are they just going to be in the special recipes section, instead of the leveling recipes section?

That's correct (to my understanding). Collectable recipes will be entirely separate from normal ones, so no more accidentally making a normal item when you wanted a collectable, or vice versa.

I just wanna Succor daddy.

I'm rather confused. Last time they added a new crafted primal weapon they added them for the new jobs (GNB and DNC) and now they are back to not making them for these jobs? I'm...actually rather irritated by this, ESPECIALLY since they are Suzaku weapons. Seriously SE, what the heck gives? That's a really sore spot for me in what would otherwise be a decent patch. Takes some of the wind out of my sails, that's for sure.

Edit: Apparently they added just about all of the crafted Stormblood weapons for all the other jobs. VERY salty about this now.

So.. I didn't see this in the patch notes..

Poetics accessories used to cost 180, now they're 280. Looks like all the L70 gear got a price bump, tho I haven't checked the L60 & L50 poetics gear. Stealth nerf! ;]

OTOH, stuff you have equipped or in your Armory Chest no longer count against your "you can only have one of this unique item" limit, so you can buy a single dupe of stuff and keep it in your inventory to turn in for seals. Stealth buff! xD

In return all the poetics gear is now 10 ilevels stronger thanks to being pre-upgraded. Can't say I agree with this really; it reduces the amount of gear you can get, so the overall end result is weaker (unless you farm more).

I called it - ARR dungeons are now dropping individual gear sets with a mix of ARR and later expansion models. Aetherial jewellery is still a thing.

At a quick run through a couple of dungeons:

HALATALI: Doctore's set as before; extra pieces added. Can get weapons from first room detour and the chain winches.

HAUKKE:
Tank: Scale mail
DOW: shoes are Pagos sandals
DOM: Plain halfrobe BUT shoes using the Crimson/Royal shoes from Labyrinth

QARN:
Tank:
DOW: Fistfighter set (though in a boring khaki brown)
DOM: Cowl with mask

CUTTER'S CRY:
Same assorted gear as before; drops new weapons. Got a basic star globe and a BLM staff that looks like Laevatinn.

STONE VIGIL:
Tank/DRG: Haubergeon/sollerets
DOW: Holy Rainbow shirt/sarouel
DOM: Warlock set (basic mage robe)
Weapons drop from first boss as well as final.

AURUM VALE:
DOM: Ruby Cotton chasuble (Lv64 crafted healer) - giving casters access to this and presumably the matching circlet.
