| In regards to the future of Limbus, the basic overall system will remain the same but we are planning to add a new route for high level players. Unlike the renewal of Dynamis, the general direction of this renewal will be more like an advanced expansion of Omega/Ultima.
We are working at full speed so that players can try this out on the test server so please wait just a little bit longer! | |

| Hi, this is Ito, the director.
You may be wondering why I’m posting such a thing on a Friday, again, but I thought that instead of having the weekend start without saying anything, I wanted to give you guys a heads up on the 2 most important points.
Battle Balance
Up to 18 players can enter at once, but we’re balancing this content so that it can be beaten by 6 players.
Rewards
We plan on redoing existing Homam/Nashira gear and preparing new Homam/Nashira gear. However, the graphics will remain the same. Sorry! | |

| Hi, this is Ito, fresh out of a meeting.
I would like to respond to a few questions about the system and rewards.
I did say that I would like the reservation limitations to be removed, but I would also like the requirement of getting a card from the Aw'euvhi (the flower) in order to enter to be removed.
When Limbus was popular, we had to waste a lot of time fighting over them. Since Limbus has an area claim system, everybody wants to enter before the other groups, but fighting over the flowers makes everybody very frustrated. Since everybody needs to have a card, players miss out on runs just for being several minutes late or party members have to hold the flowers until that player arrives. These circumstances lead to unnecessarily long wait times.
It is good that this content can be taken on by 6 players, but I really do not like the system that makes players compete too much. |
Regarding cards, we will maintain the existing method (every party member must defeat a specific monster) but also add the ability to obtain cards by checking ???s.
What bothers me is that enhanced Homam and Nashira gear are augmented…
Does this mean that they cannot be stored?ヽ(;´Д｀)ノ |
Actually, we plan on allowing both the enhanced versions and new gear to be stored.
Even if enhanced gear is impossible, will CORs, PUPs, DNCs and SCHs be able to equip new Homam and Nashira gear?! I would like this to be possible, since they cannot equip Tu’lia gods gear …
Or add new gear for CORs, PUPs, DNCs and SCHs!!! |
In terms of enhanced gear, they will remain the same. Regarding new gear, we are looking into adding more jobs that can equip these gear items.
Off to another meeting! | |

I usually take DEV with a grain of salt since 1/2 the time what they say they won't do they end up doing and what they promise to do they don't. So yeah GOGO Ninja Chainmail +2!!!

If it's still not instanced, and the rewards are worthwhile, than making it a once per 24hr deal would be a mess. Swirling vortex's aery.

I always liked limbus. It was one of the few events in FFXI that was consistently rewarding. Yes, I know all the horror stories of linkshells getting enough Omega's Eyes to create their own army of bionic Arguses (Argusi?) but at least it always loaded the primary treasure slots with something.

I wish artifact armour would go +2, even if few some pieces are still very nice to use :c but they said no so...well at least another event to stray from the VWmania...hopefully with rewards that matter. Even just some new stuff to buy with coins would be nice. Brutal 2.0 go!

It's almost a certainty that Homam will get an upgrade, either through possession of the original, or totally new Homam restat drops. (Like Phorcy's for Askar).
With all the potential zucchetto's that portends, we just need a dead Archduke and FFXI can party like it's 1914.

Here is a suggestion for SE to make the fight more challenging and balance on strategy!
Arch Omega/Ultima.
Special 2 second casting TP move;
successful stun = Item drop rate increase by 1% of the base 1%,
unsuccessful stun = Log drop rate increase by a real 10%
after the battle ended the chat log will show total item drop % = 1% base increased by 100% = 2%. logs drop rate = 500%.
The Arch Omega/Ultima droped: 5 Petrify logs.!

I think it makes more sense for Arch Omega/Ultima to drop Arch Ultima's Cerebrums and Eyes, which are then traded in for said logs.
Just in case people get any fancy ideas about "Well, quick NPC'd gil".
