there is a shit load of money to make in sky, ls i am with we get around 14mil a week from sky :D but we go 3 days a week and sundays we only people up there (expect rmt on uli)
 
The people who can't stick with a HNM/Sky/Dynamis LS aren't going to see any of this stuff. The people who can, already have, or in the process of getting HNM/SKY/Dynamis gear and will continue to improve their characters in Salvage.
 
you forgot goodbye dynamis for most jobs. Byrakko pants, wlegs, ridill, Ebody, defender rings will still be need so people wont give up sky/kings just yet

The correct answer.

The longer correct answer.


However, 1-2 pieces of HNM gear are replaced for a few jobs. (Dalamatica for BRD is one example)
 
Skaldi, as a set, is complete ass for Beastmaster. Byakko's + Hauberk/geon and any combination of remaining slots > It. Absolutely no attack+ sucks balls. No point in an improved critical rate if your normal hits suck, thus making your criticals suck.

If anything, I'll attempt to get Usunake boots for Monk, since Monk pretty much has shitty feet options the entire game, but those are complete rock.

people will still want certain pieces of HNM/sky gear to swap in for WS's etc. It doesn't make them completely obsolete.
 
goodbye sky! Only jobs that get something there will stay. ( ie war nin monk)
 
I sure hope Sky and hnm are still needed... I haven't even come close to experiencing it yet, and would sure like to be able to at some point...
 
I'm almost positive that Salvage was designed by SE as teir 2 gear... meaning, you need to have some teir 1 (god/abj) gear to stand a reasonable chance at being sucessful. And, of course, the skills developed by getting that gear. (Yea yea, lolskill... try tossing your average sky shell up against a CoP/ToAU HNM and watch what happens. Might not be much, but there's something.)

So no, the old endgame isn't gone by any stretch of the imagination. But those who have their gear from the old endgame have almost no reason to keep doing it. Which is a good thing.
 
What, new gear out already? And I'm just begining to see people with Homans and Nashiras just recently. lol

Well said. SE isn't going to make an entire aspect of the game that has held true for so long, obsolete. Sure these are nice pieces of gear but does anyone know how they drop, diffculty level, etc. This game will be very boring if the entirety of endgame shifts to a dynamis like environment located in ToAU.
 
you're wrong. SE acknowledgde that HNM is not interesting an immense majority of players, its not popular. Sky is popular but many jobs don't get much there. This is the long awaited update to get rid of abjurations. Seriously, off the 200 people in dragons eary who will have their dalmatica in 1 year? 1? 20?

It's not supposed to be many. If everyone had the best there would be no status in it. SE isn't dumb, salvage isn't going to instantly let people get shit.

Stop asking for stuff on a platter and earn your own gear.
 
Theres no tank gear in there.

Still going to have to do sky and stuff to gear up your tanks. You know, the guys that die so you don't.

NIN/DRK & BRD/NIN > PLD

PLD is only good on titamnt and AV everything else NIN can out tank. <3 PLD was a 65 one once as some new but NIN with skill will out DD and tank a PLD.
