I really wanted 10,000 floors of NNI.
I want to start on floor 9996.
I know it'll probably cost me like 100k points to start there but don't care. You'd get like 20k points per floor.

I could get enough points in a day to be capable of making every mythic.
actually, we could probably do that just by climbing all the way up to floor 10k

Floor 10,000 boss gives a Platinum astrarium that allows us to upgrade one piece of Nyame to Nyame +1 by combining it with that same piece from Thaumas, Phorcys and Nares.

also, it would reset the augments back to 0.

Pretty sure people would gladly pay that price or more to have access to 2 sets of nyame(NQ and +1)

Edit: a more unreasonable price would have been resets all progress, segments and rp for everything in odyssey to 0. Requiring you to do the grind again to unlock augments.

I totally appreciate SE's creativity in the update patch notes .....but was there even a code change? (Ambuscade, shattered HP, and fast Ramiel, all existed previously, probable over 1-2 years ago).

They should give us the goofy Aegis as a level 1 lock style.

since the other two changes were also under known issues I'm guessing we need to check all the zeid cut scenes to see if any have changed.

I checked the 4~ Throne Room/DL CS, 2 DRK ones in Zehrun, and 2 DRK ones in Beadeaux and the Brygid Cup one. Didn't seem any different. I wonder if it's just a joke because in a bunch of the CS Zeid just gets "stunned" before the big fight.

Wow, can't believe they went that route even as a joke. Missed the mark by a mile.

You joke with people that have confidence in you.

I would have preferred the April fools update instead. Looks like way more fun.

Also, here comes some Courier JAs:

"Lose/Track Item" - put something in your MOG house and it goes someplace else before returning weeks later to your MH.

"Summon Union" used before death. The rest of the party, alliance is damaged while you are pefectly safe.

2-Hour
GO POSTAL!
Every current player in the zone is returned to Home Point.

So, did SE bombed the april jokes announcement?

I tried to grab the smiling Aegis image, but that page isnt accessible.

Maybe someone got fired there by bosses that cant take a joke?

it's not 4/1 anymore, lol. Maybe they deleted so it doesn't confuse people after 4/1.

I doubt a company would fire their PR employees for a PR post with positive community response that generates discussions, lol. Generally they fire people with negative response or low engagement rate but not the other way around.

Next time if you like an April fool's joke image download the image early :p.
