You still get units
which from what a lot of people here frequently *** about
are still in demand
and seemingly the bigger blocker than Matters


You time out in Nyzul because of a ***-you floor on your way out:



Or are we going to all of a sudden do some hokus pokus revisionist history and say people havent complained about units?

i hate nyzul nowdays, i used to love it. I am so glad anytime I win rank2 and can skip it, in fact thats what happened my last 3 mythics now lol

Anyways, back to my original statement: You'd rather have the ability to do nyzul back to back to back at your leisure over the ability to do one nyzul per 24 hours with a limit of 5 runs queued up (4 @ NPC + 1 assault prepped) at double token return??

Double token. Doesn't matter though, still not happening.

There's double cards campaign for Omen, but no double Nyzul tokens nor double ichors campaigns.

I made my weapons over the course of 3-4 months, so tokens was an hour a week. I only play a few times a week and that's not a big ask. Still plenty of time to run the usual purse rotation, clear out ambuscade and dunk on the HTMB campaign. Limbus is in some other realm of pain.

Brief aman live summary from reddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxi/comments/1x7tler/10172026_aman_live_translation_thread/

Most notable thing is trust gear scheduled for next month's update.

Rock hard for that Trust HP+100 gear

Yeah, give me that accuracy plus ten, just like that

Well, for what it's worth, they've previously described it as being similar to the automaton gear system. Which would mean it's not something you personally carry around or equip. Also, they've said it would be by trust class, so you would apply this "gear" in one set for all tank trusts, another for healers, another for support and so on. There are seven trust classes, but one is the geo bubble ones and I don't think they'll get gear.

The only stat trust need is meva+1000 anything less or anything different is a failure

Lipstick on a pig. Polishing a turd.

Giving trusts meva+1000 wouldnt save you from wiping to the first floor of Sheol A

I hope they are interesting, it would be nice to work on something like that

Chirps aside
Trusts arent supposed to be used in content where you need a gorillion meva:
Gaol V5+ (for kills, not 94% amp cheese)
Sortie basement
Limbus NM's
Dyna wave 2/3

Its a *** MMO, the MM in MMO means MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER, make friends. Limbus is limited to 3 trusts and the floor kill counts include trusts in their group calculation to discourage people from flying solo with trusts.

Nah the MM in MMO stands for Make Mules.

At least in XI.

25 days is 50 points per day for 14 days plus 500 for the 15th day plus 10*100 after that? So they are aiming for 2200 points per login period, so we perfectly cannot get two 1500 items?

Also MMO being Multiple Mules Online is the best yet imo

As far as trust gear, I'm not sure really what I want for trusts. Being able to give Sylvie an Idris, Qultada a capped Rostam, etc. would obviously be awesome, but seems exceedingly unlikely. In the realm of the possible, I guess that DT and Refresh are really the big gets we could hope for? Maybe cure potency and fast cast? If the gear just affected their behavior, that would be good enough. Give me a Ring of Plague for Qultada.

It's going to be for sure weaker than Domain Invasion gear stats, but that should honestly be the floor. -50% DT, +150 Magic Evasion (30 per main armor slot, can't go too crazy), similar evasion, +30 MDB, and requisite defense.

I honestly don't even know why any of this is necessary. Just press one button and make Moogle Mastery global, and there's your trust gear. MM45 AAEV+Ygnas pair can survive a full 8 minutes between the two of them on v25 Ongo (with SCH Regen), and this was before trust updates. If MM could be paired outside of Gaol with current primer stat buffs, you wouldn't need gear at all. Not sure why they're going this route when the infrastructure is already there (I suppose new players might struggle to increase Moogle Mastery rank, but don't you want new players doing Sheols since it's the next step up in content anyways?). Just weird

I do, however, wonder how strong trusts can get with this new attachment/gear inside Gaol. Seems redundant of an update to me though.

Issue with trusts is AI and versatility more than anything. I can't summon a geo trust to give me wilt + barrier, struggle to get haste on a corsair if I'm duo with one and the person summoning trusts, etc.

There's like 150 trusts but the only combinations are like, a tank, sylvie who can give fury if you're the correct job, joachima/ulmia who love to sing paeon and ballads, and shantotto II who likes to heal mobs. You can't even get samurai roll from the one single corsair trust that rolls, which is the entire point of corsair as a buffer.

It should be really deep with tons of customization based on what you summon where every trust has a completely unique set of ai and spells so you can customize your little trust party based on the situation, instead of having basically no options at all.

Just do gambits from ff12 and be done with it. Make the gambits come from quests, missions, crafting, drops, whatever. Trusts fixed. 0.01% drop rate to control what roll the COR does, content for years.

Said a bajillion times gambits would fix 99% of the issues with trust, the last 1% is their totally dogshit meva and only casting spells while engaged (gambits would fix that part)
