Official Datamining Thread (April 17th 2006)

I was thinking that we should also check some of the older .dat's. Considering SE posted this:

Equipment sets are now available.
The wearer can receive a special effect only if the pieces of the set are equipped together.

They didn't specify which armor has the 'Set Abilities' though. It could be that some of our older sets, such as JSE and possibly AF, could have new Set abilities.
 
If they added new abilities to old armor, it'll show up in the mining process.
 
currently reinstalling POL for the second time <.<; last time I ddin't uninstall it as the NA version just said "Install"... heh <.<;
 
doesnt work that way aly. anytime they change anything it modifies the file's date, so you can always tell exactly what changed by its' date. SE commonly changes the same files as well because they keep all of the quests in a specific file, and items in another etc. Most of the .dats that exist in the ffxi dir arent information or math anyway theyre mostly images, textures, movements.

14 min left on POL update -.-;

Please check the stats of BLU, PUP and COR AF :p I'm guessing BLU have "Enhances Blue Magic", and maybe "Magic Equip +1" or something so that you can equip more Blue Magics...

COR probably have decreased chance of getting a "Bust" by raising luck or something, or maybe just simply "Enhances Phantom Roll" <.<;

PUP probably just have DRG stats (Automaton HP/Magic/Defence/Attack up)
