Campaign looks pretty nice, especially for a recent return like myself. Wish it was sooner though, my friend and I have started to try Escha NMs and having hardly any silt is making the process a bit frustrating. Definitely going to have to try and capitalize on that bonus silt campaign.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind weekly campaigns, it would be a great way to rotate content and not have people focused on only 1-2 events all month.

I still don't see how or why they had to split up CP from EXP as they're usually together

No dial campaign :(
Quote: Apologies for the delayed follow-up, but this issue has been fixed in the emergency maintenance that occurred the other day. Good luck with your Vagary endeavors, and we apologize for the inconvenience while it was being fixed. Quote: Greetings, everyone. Based on the feedback that we have been receiving, we are planning to make adjustments so that there is more time to complete the objectives given during Omen. We are hoping to implement this as quickly as possible, so please hang in there while the team finalizes the adjustment. Anyone notice there's no bcnm campaign?

They might've been referring to the KC/HKCNM camapign that drops Empyrean armor seal kupons like crazy, which honestly should be more common than it is.

While you may have a point, the high tier campaign really is a nice pairing with exp+ (but no CP+) campaign like we're getting two weeks in January. I know I would have appreciated those two together. It's also a little interesting that high tiers didn't show up despite reforged AF making a return to the forefront, as S-E does seem to have a tendency to use campaigns (and login points) that have some relation to the flavor of the month content - in this case, high tiers being the source of REM's Chapters 6-10 that some people may still not have for AF they never bothered reforging to 119.

"Fix the lock out times?" "Nah, Let's add money drops to it!" *** you square. Ambuscade Flan, BLM burst set up 100%? Medusa... Pet jobs onry U_u

New rewards from Omen? Does that mean we might be getting new sub bosses and the sort? Or just add new accessories to current pools? I didn't expect an Omen update right after it was implemented. Going to have to ask my buddy if he knows anything (he won't lol)
And currently Omen would get ruined if you could spam it. If they add in more stuff there's a chance they could uncap it and give it plenty of playtime for people. Not saying they're going to develop logically, but the lockout is there because people like me quit with nothing to do and the 20 hour lockout on Omen keeps me from finishing it in a week and quitting again. Quote: Announcing the Next Version Update (12/28/2016)  The next version update is scheduled for mid-January. Get your hands on all-new rewards from Omen and new synthesis recipes utilizing those materials. Of course, Ambuscade is going to receive its monthly facelift! Maybe stuff with low drop rate dropping from normal mobs?

Yay new stuff
new rewards from Omen eh? Wonder if they'll add new end bosses/new paths every once in a while or if they mean adding drops to existing enemies
Most likely random synthesis materials off existing fodder or NMs.

Or at least they can be random mats from other content, but not the stuff for Omen crafting. Guessing armor recipes that include the new guild items in combination with a rare material drop they add. I found it very strange that they add those mats for just upgrading, I forsee more uses.

In 2016, the development and operations teams set the goal of providing you with meaty minor version updates that provide Vana'diel's finest with fresh new experiences. We've heard all the feedback you've sent to us, which was often pleased, surprised, and at times critical, and your passion for adventuring to Vana'diel has brought us much joy over the past year. We pledge to continue to create a satisfying FINAL FANTASY XI experience in 2017 as well, and we look forward to spending even more time with you. One of the best things about 2016 is hearing from them any people who said that they've decided to come back to Vana'diel after a period of absence. We'll continue providing support for returnees going forward, and we hope to continue on this journey with you for some time to come. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the FINAL FANTASY series as a whole and the 15th Anniversary of FINAL FANTASY XI in particular. It is thanks to your passion and love for Vana'diel that we've been able to come this far, and it humbles us to know that we've brought you joy.

Wishing you all the best for 2017 both in-game and out,  Akihiko Matsui Producer, FINAL FANTASY XI

I think that's a positive letter. We're a year into FFXI being in maintenance mode, and yet the population seems pretty stable.
On Asura it might even be growing a bit. Zubis said: » I think that's a positive letter. We're a year into FFXI being in maintenance mode, and yet the population seems pretty stable. On Asura it might even be growing a bit. Most likely just more people "giving in" and server transferring, but we do seem to be getting a decent number of returnees and new players as well.
