May 2017 Version Update
Bismarck.Dekusutaa said: » It already started with smn. The crafted grar they added helps with our buffing the most with some regen thrown in for soloing. That regen wont help on t4s ; smns need -dt for that and they've kept off -dt from the set That won't remotely touch what's wrong with SMN, specifically groups of SMN's using Astral Conduit together. SMN itself is a great job with a huge toolkit of stuff, the only Game Breaking aspect is multiple AC's going off in parallel. Can you see what the synths are before getting your shield to 100%?
Anyone cleared an Omen Boss Eminence yet and know what you get? Is it a Boss material similar to Vagary?

Will be a BS move if ppl that are farming those harder to get items see that =( Hmm, I'm not having the same issue. I got craft 400 velvet's and was told I didn't need to make them near the NPC. I went to North Sandoria and was able to trade the 200 or so I made in Windy Woods without issue. Are you sure it said you didn't need to stand next to them?

SMN itself is a great job with a huge toolkit of stuff, the only Game Breaking aspect is multiple AC's going off in parallel. The large skill boosts are mostly moot. Except for hq body (lol 100m+ for a long time) they don't beat telchine for siphon or af119+3 for macc. The feet have 3 refresh, the regain is piddly and +skill is only good for alexander, but you know we have better things to use astral flow on...

BLU was a little OP, not game breaking but definitely stronger then other jobs when someone looked at the whole package. Instead of nerging CFC, or JTB2 or some other function of BLU, SE just started keeping them off certain gear while allowing other jobs to catch up. So now jobs like NIN, THF, DNC, DRG, SAM, WAR, and DRK (MNK is just ***) are becoming more competitive with BLU. Pretty smart of them, instead of smacking BLU hard they just held it back while letting others catch up in natural power growth. It's still an incredibly strong job due to innate JT's and gear selection. Gives me hope the eventual SMN nerf won't be heavy handed. That's definitely what they're doing, but the well kept secret was that blu is (and never really was) a top DD if proper buffs were considered. Sam and War are king and to a lesser extent Drk. Sam just keeps getting stronger too. Blu is great if you're soloing with trusts, but outside of that there are much better options with solid support and the case is only getting stronger with the recent gear options to those jobs. I think every job you mentioned can compete, and in most cases beat a blu if geared properly with appropriate support. Blu's claim to fame is being able to do a lot of things pretty well, but those are mostly solo oriented or if you have holes in your party and means they're giving up damage. Strict DD oriented role, blu is severly lacking behind Sam and much the 2 hander gang, and I'm pretty sure dnc and thief can give it a run for its money already. That's why I said "when someone looked at the whole package". BLU shouldn't be top DPS when it has such an insane variety of defensive and utility abilities. Saline Coat and Magic Barrier are insanely powerful, plus Occulatation (on things that don't wipe shadows), the much complained about MG and the venerable Cocoon. Then you have Job Trait specific stuff like Magic Defense / Magic Evasion (the reason I almost always have Blinding set) / Magic Accuracy and then killer traits. BLU is the swiss army knife of the DD world, it's super versatile which is a strength all by itself. People just got blinded by a handful of bad *** BLU's doing crazy stuff and forgot to look around. Totally agreed. People just got lazy and threw blu at everything and forgot about other jobs for some reason. Depending on where you are at in the game, it's one of the best jobs. If you're in a place where you're zerging Reisen Helms/easily taking down Omen bosses with a single party, you're probably not begging people to come blu like the community would have folks believe. We all have to admit, only putting blu on a set of gear that gives cure potency is hilarious though. Given cure potency is easily capped without it currently, does whm, much less sch, care about that that set? Will find use out of the body and legs for BLU for the FC

Asura.Sechs said: » Asura.Ivlilla said: » Asura.Chipmunkys said: » The new crafting tomes become available after you complete Stage 3 of the guild shield. Such ***. It's SE's way to "force" people to do the Eschuteon questline. I guess they saw that only a minority of crafters were bothering with them and thought it would've been good to "force" more players to do it. Basically they're forcing even people with Kupo Shield to do one Eschuteon and Cooking people to do it as well (it's pretty much useless for Cooking, you don't get a +1 tier in any interesting recipe). Um, Prime Marine Stewpot... secret, the stats boost trusts as well.

For clothcraft, my first quest was 30 Vendor's slops, and now I'm on 80 Errant hats in case anybody wanted to know. A friend had 30 Noble's tunics and his re-roll was 30 Vermillion cloaks. :(
Edit: Third one for me was 400 velvet cloths, fourth one was 24 Vermillion cloaks. Mine is 380 Hunter's Cloths. Fml.

Ok just need to wait a game day to reroll what item they ask for.
Does anyone know if you reroll on the Turn in quest #2 do you have to start over on turn in quest 1?
I just finished the shield for this update. After you deliver the items requested for the fourth time, the guild master will give you two of the shield materials. Trading the guild master the synthesized shield will get you the tome KI required for the new recipes. I'm aware that we're all getting different items requested for delivery, but here's what I had: 30 Vendor's slop, 80 Errant hats, 400 velvet cloths, and 24 Vermillion cloaks.

Ok thanks. I want to reroll my 2nd turn in quest but not if it resets turin quest 1.

I did a few Kindred Spirits II fights, skirmish stones +2, heavy metal plates (pouches possible), AF1 109 mats and chapters 1-5 from mobs. |
