And that's easily going to cost a fuck ton of money.

Dunno, it might as well be a dirt cheap synth.
But I can say that even the NQ would be a vital piece to have for a whm.

 

[Myrrh]

Well, when the servers are up things are gonna be interesting.

 

[Elizara]

Well, I can tell you from remembering when staff strap first came out(I was all DO WANT with that; up until the AN resting strap came out I was a stubborn staff whm. Let's just say before that going to club/shield would royally eff up my resting macros), it's prolly going to be expensive at first until people figure out how to make it/get it. If it's cheap stuff, it'll go to pretty cheap in a few weeks. Tho since every good whm is gonna wants it, it will prolly never be dirt cheap. But I hope it'll be affordable.

I'm prolly gonna go to SMN/THF tomorrow and start farming coeurl meats (to make curry buns or coeurl subs, I'll have to check FFXI AH); if that neck is goldsmithing I might ask Nimbex if he can. ^^

 

[Shadowneko]

yes new stuff gets really inflated in price. Plus we just had a world merger so I think we may have a train wreck of an economy for abit as use ex-midgard people have alot to sell...

 

[Rappa]

And by the looks of it it's a craftable!

Synergy. Listed in the update notes.

Conserve TP? Does that mean that there's a chance you won't lose all your TP when you ws? What is this I don't even.

Sounds like Sekkanoki but as a trait or something. I'd imagine it'd function the same way as conserve MP but adjusted for tp.

 

[Zaltana]

oh crap before you know it SAM's will be gunning for a 4 hit set up if they retain more TP after WS. lol (or do they do that already?)

 

[Nyosan~]

Only four-hit build I have on my SAM is while TPing with Ranged Attacks. A five-hit is only feasible with a 480-delay Great Katana or a Rindomaru with pretty nice Store TP augments on it.

I doubt we'll see any four-hit builds any time in the near future, unless perhaps SAM gets a couple more Store TP traits on the way to 99.

The earring is a little intriguing, but I doubt it'll replace my Bushi or Brutal, unless the effect proccesses pretty often for a very substantial TP savings.

Edit:
Nocturnus Helm/Mail sure sound like the Shadow Lord drops they mentioned at VanaFest. I wonder how crazy he will be.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's meant to be conquered more by lv80+ characters rather than lv75's.

Since conserve mp works by just reducing the mp cost of a spell, and ws HAVE to cost at least 100tp, I'd imagine we'd have to ws and then we'd just keep some of the tp. Just speculation though.

sam's, drg's & warriors loosen thy pants before viewing.

The loosening of the pants wasn't necessary given my gender, but I may have to wipe up my chair. So glad they didn't forget the DRGs this time!

The question is the amount saved by the effect, and the frequency at which it activates. If it doesn't save at least a full swings-worth of TP, it won't be worthwhile for 2-handers, as far as I can see. It may have a little more utility for 1-handers, since cutting off one swing or one round doesn't require as much TP return.

True, guess we'll just have to wait until some testing is done to see how well it works.

Nightfall
DMG:85 Delay:444 "Regain"
Additional effect: Terror (NO THIS IS NOT A TYPO!!! Shadowlord GS) <-- Tummie's words, not mine, but I have to agree.
Lv 75 WAR, PLD, DRK

This is... interesting.

I mean, really interesting. I mean a Great Sword with 11.48 DPS and Regain...

Yeah.

I mean I may have to start meriting Great Sword properly. If the weapon is attainable within reasonable levels of effort.

Looks like its a Shadow Lord weapon so I'd imagine it'd be difficult to attain...at first anyway.

 

[Elizara]

*looks at update notes*

Looks like that torque has a GS component too..I'm gonna have to ketch me a certain pointyheaded taru with 100 + gear goldsmithing...

 

[Raesvelg]

Oh, it's definitely a SL weapon.

So the question becomes how difficult it's going to be to do that fight, and what the drop rate is like.

Will it be a one-party deal, or multiple parties? etc, etc. I'm interested in finding out though. Totally aside from how spiffy it looks, that's just an intriguing concept for me.

Yeah, I've been reading the alla forums on this update and a lot of people seem to think that the SL type drops will probably come from specific campaign ops designed around killing him, so your nation would have to control Xarcabard. Since I saw on the page they adjusted the strength of the Shadowsoul battalion, I'm guessing it'll be easier to gain control of the area and thus, be easier to get the ops.

 

[etchdog2000]

Usually I am pretty unimpressed with items added but there are lots of stuff that I do like. Like always I will wait awhile before getting my hands on anything. (unless i can make some money off some people, Why hello there Fylgja Torque)

 

[Zaltana]

i wanted that GS ever since i first saw it, totally original GS design.
and the stats only made me want it more.
