So i just walked outside uldah...

My biggest issue with this finale is that most all the mobs 1-2 shot you. I understand this is an "end of the world" type event, but it gets real annoying dying multiple times to the point your gear gets totally thrashed in the process. I would rather the mobs be within a respectable difficulty range instead of doing 5k~9999 damage to me >.>

you are in for a treat.

[EU] All Worlds Maintenance (Nov. 2)
At the following date and time, we will be performing maintenance on FINAL FANTASY XIV to implement a version update for the final event. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XIV will be unavailable.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

[Update Details]
Below are Updates related to the end of the Seventh Umbral Era:

- Weaker monsters that are being repelled by adventurers will be replaced by deadlier types.
- Certain monsters that have been hiding their true potential will now unleash their wrath. (This has been already implemented for some of the monsters)
- These monsters will no longer be stunned by a mere Wrist Flick.
- As relief for adventurers facing enormous odds stacked against them, anima recovery rate will be multiplied by 30 to make it easier to call for help.

[Date & Time]
Nov. 2, 2012 from 21:00 to 22:00 (GMT)

* The completion time may be subject to change.

Yes I saw this little treat as well, hence why I've said something about it. I'm starting to think about the only thing I'll be doing for the next 9 days is just logging in to see how bad everything is getting and hope that someone records the final moments since I'll be at work already when it happens (work graveyard shift).

This was my complaint in the first couple of hours.
I'm cool with killing a lot of the stuff they are throwing at us.
But when you have a level 75 Drake running around and one-hit kills on everyone..
But then they started adding the level 90 aggressive mobs.

Ha, I even threw it up in here a little bit ago.
At this point, I just completely refuse to deal with those kinds of mobs.

Then Number 128 golem appeared, with 1-shot auto-attacks and 1-shot AoE.
I put 10 cobalt arrows into him and did a total of 32 damage. Nope.
I then just preceded to watch my server get auto-ko'd for the THREE HOURS it took to down the golem.

I'll continue to help kill the small/normal difficulty mobs though.
I think it's cool what they are doing; I'm just tired of using return every 30 seconds. @_@

Three hours for the Golem??? took Gungnir 1hr 35-40 mins.

Yeah...just isn't fun >.> doing like 6dmg each hit, if you hit, and they run over and pound you for 9999 dmg.

So if the mobs are getting stronger, are we supposed to be coming up with the means to weaken them? As in praying to the twelve? I think I've been convinced that it needs investigatin'

The faster anima recovery tells me we'll need to teleport everywhere to get shit done in this event.

Hi Premium,
