The assault tag thing is gay. Who beats PFC Lebros? No one. Everyone skips it, because it's fucking impossible. Yay, a feature no one can use! :P

The grand opening of the Pit has been delayed to allow for further testing, and is currently scheduled for release on September 11.
Further details on the Pit and the monster battle system known as “Pankration” will be available in the very near future.

sooo what is Pankration ?
 
Only one chocobo race per week? Feh!

Still, makes you wonder just how much gil you can make from it if they're imposing that kind of limit. Raising the chocobuck limit from 100 to 1000 is nice, too.

See you at the races!

I can't even connect to pol right now much less think about downloading the update, lol. There isn't a lot of meat to this update really so hopefully most of the meat is in the added items.

POL will be down until about 1600 PDT, then you can grab the update, and begin the mining...

I love how SE doesn't give you even the slightest clue as to what they did. You'd think they increased the DMG of these weaponskills, but there's really no telling.

I'm suprised they adjusted Howling Fist, Empyreal Arrow, and Detonator though. That was unexpected. Maybe the quested WS's for RNG will actually be worthwhile now.

But they did give a clue...

Raging Rush has a crit mod like people have been asking for, and actually stands a chance against Rampage.

Penta Thrust has an acc mod. Not the crit people jokingly asked for, but anything's better than damage that doesn't actually vary with TP.

Skewer, chance of crit... Isn't that like the 175 polearm WS nobody uses?


The Gekko / Yuki / Kasha adjustment has me curious, though, there was nothing wrong with them in the first place. Maybe they're nerfing Hagun? (I can't complain if they are, it's a little silly just how superior that GKT is)

Howling / Dragon are never used by MNK post-Asuran, so maybe Dragon's getting some kind of boost. Emp Arrow / Detonator are even worse, outdated the moment you unlock them, prettymuch require a good boost to be worth unlocking, much less using instead of sidewinder.

I haven't a clue what they might be planning with Cross Reaper, though, it's just kinda sitting there for no reason. Maybe a boost to low-end TP to compete with Guillotine? More likely a random nerf for no explicable reason,

They are "adjusting" howling fist and dragon kick. Those two ws aren't great. Either they improve their dmg or modify SC properties to allow efficient tierII/tierIII self SC on PUP.

edit :
stuff like

canibal blade > howling fist = distortion
daze > dragon kick = fusion

would be awesome already since the master can finish the SC.

I doubt it, sometimes they kill all of the groundskeepers with BLM -agas. Unless they got banned. Guess we have to wait and see.

So 3 NIN/THFs at the start of night with RR items would be likely to win, with the other 3 assault members sitting off in a corner?
 
Wish Guillotine had an adjustment...still same damage at all TPs :|
 
FINALLY a title for killing the Salvage bosses... been wodnering when that will be added, lol

<3

They didn't say, so nobody will know until we get in-game and run through a few hundred WS's on level 0 Rarabs. I suspect they'll be in high demand, with people testing the other WS's for potential fTP updates too.
 
What exactly is Feral Drain?
 
5 bucks says it's the thing that lets you aquire monster DNA for The Pit.

I pray to Altana that they increased the WS ACC and dmg, cause if I miss anoter 3 WS in a row after using meikyo shushi, I am going to kill myself

Nice Mai, I really had no idea what this might be for.
 
Woot!! The mog locker available at Nomad moogles is the best thing!! No warping back to windy just because I forgot 1 item in my locker.

Also, the translate thing sounds good, but hopefully it isn't full of bugs.

Peace,
Shmed
