Is there anything these stylish and practical specs can't do? With the next version update, the tome summoned forth by this item will provide you with a two-day weather forecast for your current area.

Yay!

Oh God, thank you. As long as there isn't any kicker to this, I'm very content.

I guess that means I can use the few zones without weather checkers more. Which is mostly just past ones

Aegis +1! Thats my first thought, then the relic horn comes to mind next.

The new weapon in the one pic does look nice though, can't tell if its a GK or GS though, Neither really affect me though XD


Another thing that sparks my intrest is what will the new WS's be? And will those weapons be like relic/mystic weapons?


Last thought isn't related to the announced data, But rather to how will they raise the cap? 80-85 or 80-90(or 89, whatever)?

I'm definitely relieved they aren't adding more trials to weapons at the moment, well most of them. I have 4 Magian staves to still work on, so I'm happy to know I won't have to do 4 MORE trials to my already completed Surya's and Yama's.

Additional Weapon Trials

Along with the all-new armor trials, additional weapon trials will also see their debut. Through these, weapons obtained via past trials, including Empyrean weapons, may be augmented to heretofore-uncharted levels of power. These weapons will not only boast improved attributes, but also allow their wielders to unleash new weapon skills.
:s

Just when I start wrapping up the basics... they give us more trials. Yay!

Thanks for catching that, remind me not to post at 4 AM. In my defense, it does say 'May be augmented', so I MIGHT still be lucky (with Magian staves anyways).

The weapon in the pic is masemune or whatever empyrean GK

My question would be, did they not say you will be able to magian existing armor in an interview a while back that was posted on wiki?
Also, i bet the "new ws" are empyrean only!

Really hope they reduce some of these trials, the last line is only thing i am hoping for. Would love if they turn all the weather specific trials to day or weather...as well as they should just keep this stuff to mob type only and not specify mob...but that wont happen...i hate magian trials *grumbles*

I figured out what the weapon was after looking around on wiki alittle, felt somewhat stupid for the comment, But hey, I don't know jack-squat about the trials for the most part. Havn't toyed with them since I'm not even 75 yet since coming back ~.~;;;


Ahem, anyway. I hope they do upgrade ~some~ armor things, aegis mainly. I could really care less about other things since.. well aegis takes alot of time for people to get, And they've upgrdaed every relic/mystic weapon, Why not the best shield/horn(keep forgetting to mention that..) too?

I pray the new WS's won't be abysea only with extremely hard to get... well I wouldn't care if its hard to get weapons, it basicly reminds me of relic-like weaponry, but my point I'm aiming for is I hope, if anything, they make it like mystic WS's. Can learn the WS with a certain weapon, then unlock it for everywhere use. Eventually get a weapon that boosts your stats/some proc when you use the WS's like using atonment with burtang.

If they do upgrade aegis or the horn, I think it'll be some REALLY high number of something that the things do. Ex, Shield bash with aegis, or shield blocks with aegis, and song sung with the horn.

Small edit: I forgot to say what they maybe.

My guess would be something like this:

Aegis upgrade: Block 5000 hits
Horn upgrade: Sing 10000 songs

Eh blocking wouldn't be hard. Hello mandies. Of course they'll probably make it require blocks from some stupid mob that hits really hard and really slow.

Always a possibility! It'd likely either be a slow monster, one without double attack, and has a hard spawn chance.

Looks to me the upcoming armor trials are the new AF3:

To this point, Trial of the Magians has focused on the enhancement of weapons. New trials to be introduced in the coming version update, however, will be centered on a new series of armor that will be obtainable in Abyssea. A unique set will exist for each job, and when augmented through trials, their powers will truly be a sight to behold!

EDIT: Nothing about Aegis or other armor, just new pieces for each job.
