November 2025 Version Update

Or worse rmt groups just flat out close out the instances by pulling the w1 boss to the w2 boss and killing both, I can easily see someone doing this in under 15 minutes in Bastok and jeuno at least. Killing the w1 boss is also an almost certain mass MPK scenario.

Well, i'm not exactly certain but it sounds like instances are recreated so long as the window for a zone is open? So if someone did do this, a new instance would just form within that timeframe, theoretically.

Maybe credits for every1 in zone for every kill to complete AF+3 reforge-ability?

Wow immediate Emaint too. Pretty rare.

Such an emergency they don't even have any *** idea how long to say it will take.

what's criminal is that it took them 30 minutes to translate the emaint post from jp to en

It's not even on playonline yet. It's only on the forums.

But if it ONLY took 30 minutes that's not criminal, that's outstanding.
(...vs the norm, for them)

I demand reparations! Rainbow mog pells for everyone! ;)

ah, i'm looking at the forum posts.

You know they aren't doing ***unless the JP side complains real hard.

Yeah bro, I know. :(

Wait what... medals still drop in the new dyna instances?? Isn't this just going to be congested by rmt at all times??
Su5 market is about to change when all these extra medals get injected.

Please tell me I'm wrong

Don't worry, you're wrong.

For one, you need demon's medals and mats from wave 3 for SU5 which isn't allowed in this new shared zone. It ends after wave 2 boss.

Furthermore, competent RMT could've farmed it before this update so it doesn't matter since no impact to SU5's but for shards and void items on reforging as well as +2 necks, there might be an impact.

I have spoken.

I am not seeing any way that could prevent this, so probably yeah.

As it is right now, this will go the way asteroid fields did in EVE Online - no real player ever saw one because they were all strip mined by bots as soon as they spawned, until they banned thousands of RMT accounts en masse.

I hope they have plan :-\

JP forum post claims they'll be completed ~7min from now.

anxiously awaiting an "ah *** we missed something nvm" edit

Game up

It appears that the spent RoEs were not reset...

Glad I'm unsubbed for the next 2 days so I can read this thread and laugh instead of cry.

Guess no free mars orb for me this month cuz I completed that objective before maintenance, but not nothing before searching the forums bug report. RIP

Sheeh

got voucher on mule for unity greeting now lol

If each character can enter one of 48* new "instances" per server per day, it's going to be hard to monopolize.

Supply of wave 1 & 2 drops is absolutely going to flood the market, though. Even if you discount the ability of solo players to farm effectively, lowman groups and multiboxers who already farm dyna are going from two farming opportunities per week to nine.

Heroism will probably take the biggest hit, as there's now a path for solo players to chip away at RP while making gil instead of spending it.

* 48 = 4 zones, each with 12 one hour on, one hour off cycles per 24hr period.

If the new Dyna has drops and everything isn't pre-popped then the only use of it for solo players is just so people can enter to get the first upgrade and leave. They won't be able to kill anything at all unless they have one shot cor builds.

The negative change is the prices of all the lower stuff will drop, since more farm access for people who already farm it (RMT). You'll work twice as hard for the same gil reward.

New AMAN Trove RoE involved shared Dyna-D instance (Monthly):



Edit: My bad. Not new, just renamed I guess.

I wouldn't be too worried about insufficient instances or people going straight for the bosses, there are enough runs a day it should still be managable. Hopefully W1 boss kill and trash kills count for everyone in zone, but judging by how lazily it seems to be done I won't assume that without proof.

Still seems more like a way to introduce extra materials and make it more farmable for advanced players than a way to help new players get clears. Prices will drop substantially, no doubt on that. For folks who want Volte equipment, getting every kill every day is probably appealing. Expect competition for those NMs during primetime on large servers.

2-3 days of lockouts instead of 9 is nice if you want to unlock a relic body for a new job.

JP players report DA duration is 30mins.

I wonder how much gil that works out to.

The gil is consumed on each DA, rather than on initial usage? Yikes. 30 minutes of guaranteed DA is an obscene buff and that piece alone drops the bar considerably for most difficult content.

So anecdotally, are Impossible to Guage thuds the new Loud Thuds? Like dont open unless its ItG?

Ive done about 10 orbs, and I'm seeing Loud Thuds ALOT

EDIT:

Opening the 8th chest on a Mars Orb, one of the final 2 chests transformed.

During the opening, after the 3rd chests I got the message "You feel like there's an impossible to guage thud lef to be made...?"

The "..?" part of the message continued the entire time.

The 9th/10th chest, one transformed into Gold, not Rainbow. The Gold Chest was a "Loud Thud" and it said "Looks like your intuition was incorrect".
