Tomes

Guys please tell me the DRK relic is that sword your dark side uses in the level 50 quest.

Oh that's not fun.  I liked that the first set was locked behind quests made it feel more special.

To be fair, AF1.5 was also Tomestone gear. (Mythology back in the day.) So when the new AF2 was revealed and didn't show up in the Job Questlines... kinda had to figure it would be locked behind Esoterics.

Well...

Hopefully the players have more than a few brain cells between them and can adapt.  I plan on sticking a sticky note with the changes to Royal Road onto my monitor so I can just stare at it until I have it memorized.

why do so many of the new weapons for DPS classes have skill speed on them aaaaaaaaa

Because they want you to beg the AST for Spire cards.

I believe skill speed now increases auto attack potency or something of the sort so it's not all bad least for me since my tp management for fights is pretty straight forward so I'm not really minding it.

Im fully expecting to hop in and see "Alexander savage no law bonus" parties already.

That's giving the skill of the community too much credit. With the steep DPS check requirement just to get passed savage Faust, I don't think we'll see parties like that for awhile. Everything will be "learning" party until more people get Esoteric gear.

WELP This is exactly why i got to rank 30, less than the needed wins for the warsteed, and just stopped. The queues were so bad I decided to level all my shit to 50 instead. I guess now it'll be to 60 instead.
