In the upcoming version update, we plan on introducing the next segment of the Treasures of Aht Urhgan missions, as well as a number of new features and improvements that will make your life in Vana'diel more enjoyable than ever before!
Check out today's Topics for a preview of some of the changes.

New Missions
In the next version update, we will be continuing the Treasures of Aht Urhgan missions where they left off in the October update. The next installment will include the appearance of new monsters, the four Mamool Ja overlords, the mysterious Dark Rider, and many other surprises you won't want to miss!

Merit Points
A new graphic effect will be added that will let surrounding players know when you have gained a merit point. Also, you will be able to switch between experience point mode and limit point mode in any area, not just your Mog House.
*You will not be able to switch modes while under a level restriction (such as in a battlefield or during an Assault mission), or when participating in Besieged.
*Allocation of merit points will still only be possible within your Mog House.

Item Storage and Card Cases
The NPC who stores certain equipment sets will begin accepting relic-level armor in the upcoming version update. Also, the arrow-bundling NPC has expanded her wares to include cases that allow you to carry 99 corsair cards as one item.

Map Marking
The next update will see the appearance of an NPC that will mark your magical maps to make it easier to find those special NPCs, such as the minstrel of melodies, and the item storage NPCs.

YAY inventory space <3
 
The new merit off/on was a great addition.

Also will be interesting to see dark rider and his loot.

Those green dots that were only used to mark the new adventurer npc...they have a use now?

Well, I'm running out of room... I'd love to be able to store RDM AF1 and AF2 while lvling a new job, as an example.

Well it atleast helps dark knights with full sets. Dunno how many of them were after me though :P
 
Storing relic, changing to merits/exp anywhere and improved markings on the maps? Fuck yes.

Although I guess this means my mannequins won't be pimping good gear anymore.
 
Awsome, now I'm glad I bothered to lot those worthless BST AF2 pieces! Alot of people collecting 2-3 sets of AF2.

For me, bst AF2 be in storage alot of the time. ; ;
 
If you cap your exp like i do you dont need this feature. Seriously, cap your exp and you'll never have to switch to merit ever. it will be automatic after getting back the few k exp you lost in the week.
 
Its not AF2, its Relic... read the news release.

As for the point of it... I dunno how useful it will be if you have to store all 5 pieces, if you can store single pieces then that would be awesome.
