My tldr and my last post on the pup train is basically in my opinion PUP right now is the worst job in the game.
What it brings to the table in terms of damage and support is very low. With the addition of Naegling and master levels it further decreased the little support that it had. The function as an additional healer is basically obsolete by any mage job that subs white mage now with Curaga III.
Other jobs have limitations on what they can do, but the limitations are not with how the job functions, but in game mechanics(BLM MB wall etc). In the case of PUP the limitations are the core of how the job is designed, and the core has literally never been updated.
It really feels like TOAU jobs, except OP COR, are stuck in the 75 era for the majority of their mechanics.

There is like no way stronger relic WSs will be on Primals. It might be same animation, but stats will be completely different. Keep in mind they said Primals will be on par with REMA, not stronger, so for sure they wont have stronger versions of same WSs. They might have stronger WSs in general, because SE sucks at balancing, but it wont be anything that is straight up upgrade of the same.
This is the 1st time were getting a different version of same weapon, better versions apparently, so can't be sure. I'd find it odd for them to just flat out invalidate relics but at the same time I dont see them making new WS' either, hence the II variant, anythings possible really.
They said they will be competitive, not better. I think you hype yourself into wrong direction. They really cant be direct upgrade of Relics. They wont invalidate Relics. Unless idk they will make those better version of relic WSs, but they will give it to relics too, then maybe. Relics and Primals need to at least look like they are on similar level. If you make II version of Relics WSs on them and leave Relics untouched, they will look like direct upgrade, thats why I think it's impossible.

NGL if we got an AG on body like the Sagasinger aura on sword I'd be stoked.

Only other option is shitty gold (or none)
red green blue, white black (black light, purple, uv etc)
Every other color is a mix

I'm pretty sure the relic glow is already supposed to be golden, so I'd wager you're right about the purple. The only other visually distinct basic color would be orange, and that'd look terrible.
Plus, we all know purple has been SE's absolutely favorite color for the past few years.

I bet Asurans are happy about yells turning from "4 REMA BRD only" into "5 REMA BRD only".
You forgot to add "VETERAN" only.

Well some veterans rema brds can't even play brd, so the added veteran don't really add any security. It's often a hit an miss on pug's. On any job really.

I don't know why they keep it always on Mhuara or now that place... it used to go to different areas and I remember watching it as a kid and being nerded out seeing Malboro and stuff lol.

The devs said during the AMA that they keep the livestream on Mhuara because they want players to be seen running about. This area has the double effect of both being active with players and it shows off the new zone.

It's...uh...not very active in the stream though. Also, in the digest they didn't want to spoil the new area, but they're fine putting it front and center in a stream (granted, it's one that nobody really looks at).

I wonder how it works, never figured it out. Imagine if they can just record anywhere. Just spy on people in instances

I am sorry if this has been said but did we ever get a solid number on the Exemplar increase on Locus mobs? I was recently told it was around 7% but this week I have seen varying estimates as high as 20. I never give SE that level of credit.

The EP multiplier for Locus mobs was changed from 6 to 7, so a 16.66% increase.

Who told you 7 %, it's 7.0 multiplier, increased from the 6.0 it was before the update. Regular Apex have a 5.0 multiplier for comparison.

Just a friend, it looks like a mix of remembering a bit off is all. Thank you both very much.

Probably the lower level of the map. I can't imagine what else it would be.

Just gonna be another set of objectives and a boss fight against Hades who will drop the ***needed for +3 and you'll probably have to kill him on the job you want to unlock +3 on. Would be ery surprised if it was more than a section E
