There are a lot of mysterious mats atm lol stiperstone, resin, and navigator's ear. They may come from the 3 new areas listed for the hamlet gathering materials.

Kidney Ore Miner Nanawa Mines
Spruce Branch Botanist East Shroud
Young Indigo Herring Fisher Western La Noscea

Since I'd find it very hard to imagine that we can only get one item in each area. I'm thinking Botanist will be camp nine ives and Western will be Camp Bald Knoll, then of course Nanawa mines. the mines will be the easiest of the 3 to check but I may afk myself near nine ives and throw a node search upon logging back when servers are up. But ya I think your best bet would be to check those 3 areas, well for miners the mines.

Either that, or a flag up icon next to your name. Maybe now I'll find people who are willing to do a caravan escort with me, though.

Prevents lag. That's a good thing.

If the 50-hour preparation period is over and the call-to-arms has been sounded, form a party of 8 members and speak with the militia captain to enter the instanced area. Once the instance has been entered, jobs and classes will be locked and players will not be allowed to change their weapons or soul crystals.

Is there anyway the bolded can be done for all dungeons/boss encounters from here on? Awesome decision, btw.

Hamlet Defense is kinda letting me down now i wanted it to be like The Astral Era content where its just non instance and everyone go on the attack, but its just another 8 man instance /sigh

As it stands, with only 8 slots to mix the four disciplines into, I still think we're going to end up with a very heavy DoW/DoM build.

6 DoW/DoM and 2 DoL/DoH sounds like it would be the average, in which case the craft and gather guys are getting the shaft.

You guys are forgetting something... It will not matter much what classes make up your party.
Your party will be fighting alongside at least 10 militia NPCs.

Technically they didn't say it was going to be available in 1.22. All that was mentioned was that a new imperial stronghold would be constructed. Which in fact is what happened.

The servers have never been able to support large scale battles. Why Hamlet defense was suppose to be different? =(

Even with the limitations, Hamlett defense seems like a blast to do. Also, can't wait for 2.0 new servers.

Current game engine cap displayed characters to 40, so it's just impossible a massive non-istanced event. So yeah, wait 2.0

Also, looks like you get less result points for equipping job stones and more points for everyone being the same DoW/DoM/DoH/DoL.
