News is out that after their introduction, 1-handed versions will no longer be dropped in the content they were once rewards. Zhexos Wrote:Thank you for the continued feedback regarding the ability to glamour one-handed conjurer and thaumaturge's weapons over two-handed ones.

Any more 3.2 news (Dungeon Previews etc) will be posted when updated!! Main Scenario Preview! Patch 3.2 – The Gears of Change is scheduled to release on February 23, 2016! Prepare for release day with this sneak peek at the main scenario. Truth. Peace. Reformation. These were the keys to Ishgard's salvation. So believed Ser Aymeric, acting ruler of the Holy See. However, not all shared in his dream, and in his headlong rush to unite man and dragon once more, those still bound by the fetters of the past rose up to defend their nation against the forces they feared would destroy it. Yet change─that great, inexorable wave─was upon them, and soon all of Ishgard would bend to its will. Dungeon Preview Patch 3.2 is fast approaching, and today we offer you a glimpse into the Antitower, as well as the hard mode of the Lost City of Amdapor! ≪The Antitower≫ In all of creation, what greater mystery could there be than the fate of this very star? To sound the deepest depths, to study the aetherial sea itself─for these purposes and more was the Antitower built. Abandoned by her Sharlayan caretakers following the exodus, it has since been overrun by the magical guardians they left behind. Yet were one blessed with Her gift to brave these dangers and descend to the furthest reaches─to hear, feel, and think at the heart of this world─what would they find? Level Requirement: Disciple of War or Magic level 60 Item Level Requirement: Average item level 180 or above Party Size: Four players Time Limit: 90 minutes Quest : The Word of the Mother Prerequisites: Players must first complete the main scenario quest "As It Once Was. ≪The Lost City of Amdapor (Hard)≫ Following the defeat of Diabolos, the unnatural pall choking the crumbling city of Amdapor was lifted, and tranquility restored to the Twelveswood. Or so it had seemed. When the Hearers entered the ruins, however, they had scarce begun consigning the stones to the forest when their elemental allies fled in a sudden panic. By the spirits’ agitated whispers did the Seedseers learn that a daunting and hostile presence yet lingered within Amdapor's moldering walls. Unable to complete their ritual of cleansing, once more have the Padjals called upon your aid. Once more must you delve deep inside the ancient city's husk, and purge its withered heart of an unknown evil... Level Requirement: Disciple of War or Magic level 60 Item Level Requirement: Average item level 180 or above Party Size: Four players Time Limit: 90 minutes Quest : One More Night in Amdapor Prerequisites: Players must first complete the main scenario quest "Heavensward," and have also completed the quest "One Night In Amdapor.†Sephirot Battle Preview Today's patch 3.2 preview will give players a peek at the battle with Sephirot, one of the three towering pillars of the Warring Triad. Sephirot, the Fiend Sephirot, the Fiend, was a deity once worshipped by a tree-like race native to Meracydia. Brought into being for the sole purpose of repelling the Allagan invasion, Sephirot inflicted ruinous losses upon the imperial army before finally being subdued and imprisoned in the central facility of Azys Lla. And now, millennia later, this immensely powerful entity threatens to awaken, his vengeful dreams disturbed by the careless ambitions of Archbishop Thordan VII. Topple the first pillar of the Warring Triad, or wheresoever his colossal shadow falls shall be visited by unthinkable catastrophe! - Containment Bay S1T7 Level Requirement: Disciple of War or Magic level 60 Party Size: Eight players Time Limit: 60 minutes Quest: When the Bough Wakes Prerequisites: Players must first complete the main scenario quest "As Goes Light, So Goes Darkness" and have also completed the quest "Gods of Eld. - Containment Bay S1T7 (Extreme) Level Requirement: Disciple of War or Magic level 60 Party Size: Eight players Time Limit: 60 minutes Quest: A Fiendish Likeness Prerequisites: Players must first complete the quest "When the Bough Wakes." Beast Tribe Quest Preview In today's patch 3.2 preview, you'll get a peek at a new quest series focused on the Vath and their journey to freedom from the Overmind. Gnath Beast Tribe Quests The Gnath are insect-like beastmen linked in thought, compelled to serve only the Overmind. Should their link to him be severed, they are cast out from the colony, left to fend for themselves in the wilds. A number of these offscourings, known as the Nonmind, have built a community for their fellow exiles. What trials and tribulations must they overcome to truly separate themselves from the Onemind? After unlocking the beast tribe daily quests, players will be able to undertake several quests which change on a daily basis. By completing them, players can improve their reputation with the Gnath. At certain milestones, you will be given the opportunity to undertake main beast tribe quests, which are episodic quests that provide insight into the lives of the Gnath. Beast Tribe Vendor By completing daily beast tribe quests and raising your reputation, you will be able to purchase various items such as furnishings, minions, and mounts. The Feast will not take into account morale or materia. Food and potions can't be used.

Then I realized it wouldn't be possible due to the Adamantoise's anatomy... and the obvious lack of cannons. RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Sig - 12-31-2015 Crossing fingers already for aesthetically pleasing armors or glamour outfits that do not require massive PVE timesinks to obtain. RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Gagusho - 12-31-2015 Now I need a turtle mount. And, yes, I was thinking of Gamera. Just couldn't remember the name. RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Vyce - 12-31-2015 Look at all these underwhelming updates! RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Aldotsk - 01-01-2016 ... Honestly I thought of this turtle at first thought: RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Erik Mynhier - 01-01-2016 I hope the gear for the new tomestones are by role and not job. I dont need three sets of gear for my tanks, took me forever to gear them and tbh i dont have the space for 3 tank sets, a dps (still working on them), a healer set (almost done), 4 crafter's sets, my miner's set and the 4 rp outfits i have. Would save me some space if they could go like old tome sets and go by role. RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Oli! - 01-01-2016 Wait, who said anything about new tomestones? That's not actually a thing, is it? RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - V'aleera - 01-01-2016 It's the circle of no-life.

Quote:Based on the feedback that we have been receiving, we will be lowering the difficulty of Alexander: Midas (Savage) that will be implemented in Patch 3.2, while simultaneously setting the item level of the Savage weapon and the item level of the new Allagan tomestone weapon to be different. We would like to revamp the overall balance moving forward with these changes.ÂTomestones every 2 big patches, as always. RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Oli! - 01-01-2016 I really don't know how much longer I can run the tomestone treadmill. RE: Patch 3.2 News and Previews - Estimated Drop Date Feb 2016 - Lost River - 01-01-2016 I wonder if we'll see new hairstyles again. Or will that be in patch 3.2(whatever) or 3.3? |
