Freshly Picked #71

March 2026: they're going to raise the floor of trust power since players are so much stronger than ilvl 119. This will increase the amount of content that players will be able to attempt.

More concretely: the first initiative March 2026 will have different points for each type of Trust (tank, dd, healer, etc) that you can use to increase the "parameters" (I take this to mean things like attack/defense etc more than base stats, but I'm not sure there)

These points will be handed out by logging in day after day or by doing activities on your own.

This is subject to change. This is what they are looking into now

Collecting points will not depend on the outcome of battles.

She asks if they will be specific to the trusts and their current attacks? Fujito-P responds that that's not something that will be happening in the first initiative "but there's still a 2nd coming so..."

They're looking to make it so that you can get points in a lot of types of content not just things like Sortie.

A lot is undecided but they're looking into many things.

1:40:00) Divergence talk. New entrance. #1 and #2. Difficulty looks the same (says 139) and it lets you check the status of the area which tells you what wave and how many statues are left so you don't enter when someone has already finished the whole zone. The status update is refreshed every 6 or 7 seconds.

You can check other areas if the one you wanted is going to be empty. (The other person only has 3 trusts out, but there's no limit on the number of trusts). You can't fight mobs that others are fighting (like old Dyna; they didn't address it here but it seems like you still get credit for the kills re: upgrades). You CAN make a party after you enter solo.

Time limit is 60 minutes from when the entrance OPENS. So when it is available in the rotation it automatically starts counting down. The once a day is separate from regular Divergence. Drops are "basically" the same

Scheduling for example: open for an hour, closed for an hour, then open again. All areas are staggered 30 minutes from the others so there's always a zone getting close to being ready. You can enter ONE zone this way a day. You do not get one for each nation.

Vanabout. Able to skip daily objectives. It changes when the objective would reset. Other stuff listed in the patch intro on the website.

Added to the silver prize: AF+3 kupon which gives a FULL SET of AF+3.

Rewards: 100% gives Cornelia for 3 months, 125% is (I'm guessing/assuming because the name is so different) Alter Ego Expo Campaign – PLUS! In December, 150% is Statue Crusher campaign PLUS addition of double credit for the "defeat 100 enemies" requirement for unlocking relic upgrades. Timed to make unlocks very easy with the new Solo Divergence.
From 11/18 to 12/1.

AMAN trove.

Adding items, removing items. Completely new items (new to THE GAME items). Removed....shittons. look at 2:03:00 for an idea. Job cards and stone bags. (And other things I have no desire to Google, I'm sorry. It's 2:30 am here lol.)

Venus orbs: rates were actually higher for Venus, but they're raising the percents more to make it more obvious. New sound (in the patch intro page). Don't be like Fujito-P and leave before picking the good chest because you got excited to see "impossible to gauge" when it's saying that it's still left. (Also, Fujito-P has as bad of luck in Trove as me.)

New trove item: Something (Hocksney? Hoxni? Foxni?) Ring [HP-150, MP-300, TH+2, TH effect +5% (this is proc rate it seems)] all jobs.

Something Earring [Knowledge Rank: All Stats (BP=battle point) -30 to +30] all jobs. Knowledge Rank = the same as the Mentor rank thing. Increased by completing more content.

Something Ammo [spend 1k gil for 100% double attack. 1/1 0:05 (1:00, 0:05)] all jobs. Also works on WS. Works for the duration of the enchantment, not just one hit. You lose 1k for every hit getting double attack.

Something Torque [combat skills+30,magic skills+30, slow+5%] all jobs.

There are others added already.

Everything is subject to change.

Limbus: still 40% of Limbus changes left to implement. One part of that will be in December. New NMs and equipment. Modified Omega and Ultima models. Being added to Limbus in December.

Besieged: coming to the last changes for besieged (i119 in January!), new items to buy with the currency. Took longer than expected but they think it's turned into a good piece of content.

Reives: lower the penalty time for leaving a Reive (how many minutes or how many seconds).

Gobbie Box: new dial added in December; seasonal stuff.

Archduke shield coming as real gear.

Blue magic sets, attachments changes. "Group assist" (party finder).

Changes to Playonline because there's been cases of people unable to even play the game. Not showing words etc.

Changes to their development tools as the current dev kits are "really, seriously close to their end of life" so they need to switch to make it so they can create new stuff still (graphics, gear etc). Spoke about Maya and Blender. This is progressing well. Once this is finished, blue magic sets and attachments etc can be progressed.

Replaced most servers already. Update servers are the last to replace.

After all the back end stuff is fixed, they're going to make preparations for the creation of new zones. This is a bullet point on the slide, they don't directly talk about this.
