Bad and good in this patch. Nothing that really amuses me eighther.
ENM: 5 day retry timer sucks big time. The earlier level ones may be easy but the rewarding ones are probably on the high level ones. As people said just for the 5 day retry system people will be picky both in person and job wise. I can't see many pickup groups on these going on.
Fishing: The stamina although good, are bad for high level fishers who likes to fish long time period. They won't be able to do this anymore and are limiting in their income. But perhaps it was the best way to get rid of those bots.
Prom mission: Some say its way too incomplete, they aded a very little portion and once you are in the new zone, it seems that the mission is not implemented yet. (from JP promathia guide web info)
New abilities: These are pretty good. Although divine seal are still limited to 10min timer, so you won't be able to use it often. On blind, curse spree places such as king ramp's tomb its practically useless. Banish3, another tool just like holy. You won't be able to use much. Its 96 mp which is alot, and only time you got spare mp on that magnitude are when closing in the 70s and merit point groups really.
AF: Concept wise it was good. But they implemented horrendously. Some pieces of specific jobs can't really be replaced. Such as AF hat for blm, rdm, body piece for ranger etc. You can only change into an important item when you give out all 5 pieces. So unless its a job that you would rarely going to play (such as retired jobs) it doesn't make that different. In my case it won't make any difference since my LS asks me to swap with every high level job I have.
Others: search system enhancement and chat filters were a great addition. Some merit point could be of some use aswell. Although I have seen the added items in this patch and found a bit depressing nothing new were added towards the monk class. Weapon wise and armor wise. But thats just my personal call.

shia, do you realise that the 5 day timer on ENM's is just for individual ENM's, not any ENM in general.
So you can go do one, then go do another and so on. You just can't go back to the first until after 5 days.
This makes sense really as there is no downside to doing one, you dont lose xp for dying and theres no cost to do them. Can you imagine how people would just farm these if there was a lower or no wait time?
Details about the lvl 30 cap ENMS:
Guaranteed rewards for winning are 6k xp for everyone less than or equal to level 30. 3k xp for everyone else.
Drops are memory clusters which split into 12 memories like crystal clusters do for crystals. These are fairly common.
There are also ex drops that aren't as common that can be traded back to the quest giving npc for one of the new 3+ skill earrings. The earrings gained from the dem/mea lvl 30 ENMs got so far are the +3 Enfeebling skill and +3 Elemental skill earrings.
The ENM is supposed to be relatively easy compared to the Promyvion NM fights in the spire.

nice wise gear... I want.. damn tho, had to make the head armor a frikin cap heh
If you're giving true informations, galaika, 3k xp is a pretty good xpbuff for a roughly 20min fight (I don't think lots of ppl will do those on lv 30 or lesss).
As for the uber items, they sure look great but I don't wanna know the price of them

This update blows....
it is true farys, and if I had the motivation, I'd get the links for the posts on allakhazam about it, but i dont, so head over to their general forums and check out all the ENM threads, plenty people have done them already and stated what they got from them

Actually, I heard its a pretty easy drop from one of the new NMs (in CoP area so unlikely to be camped by gil sellers) or one of the ENMs.
There was somoene talking about how their LS had already picked up a few. Though it's still early days and people could just be bragging.
I'm betting SE is finally trying to do something about prices hiking on certain items by providing possibly easier to obtain alternatives. (Astrals and the new accuracy rings). Hell, they dealt with fish bots didn't they?

Sure thing Sabs, I'm incredibly bored at work and in a forum checking cycle.
Refresh QCDN, open all forums with new posts, read all new posts.
Refresh Allakhazam main, whm, blm and smn forums, read all new posts.
Rinse and repeat.
Catch myself glacing over my shoulder to make sure the boss isn't looking because I keep forgetting hes away for the week.
