We will also get our new Allagan tomestone (So we'll be moving past Esoterics, removing their limit, and Law will be exchanged for other items!) The Adamantoise Mount flies into the skies in 3.2! Information for this post gathered from Letter from the Producer Live XXVI JP PR Blog and 4gamer 12/29 Interview A lot of updates fleshed out upon during the PLL 27 chronicled in the RPC thread here or can be found in the Official Forums here. Patch 3.2, Gears of Change, will come on Feb 23. Along with it comes new MSQ (Minfilia and the Mother Crystal), AntiTower, Lost City of Amdapor HM, Alexander: Midas NM and Savage, more PVP!, more crafting recipes!, and the first trial in The Warring Triad series: Containment Bay S1T7. New Allagan Tomestone of Lore! - If you have soldiery, go get poetics. - If you have law, these will be exchanged for esoterics. - The new tomestone gear will be Primal Themed! Tank / Job Adjustments Gnath beast tribe Quests! More mounts flying! - Adamantoise mount flies like Gamera - Gnath mount New Crafting Recipes, some are glamor without class restrictions! Dyeable Allagan and High Allagan New Kirimu Coat, Boarskin Skirt and Boots of Divine Light.... NOT CLASS RESTRICTED! Zhexos Wrote:Greetings, Looks like design and character teams were secretly working on adding gear that players wanted to use for glamour. Takeo_Suzuki Wrote:Takeo Suzuki here, the lead designer of FFXIV. Over the years, we've received requests from players regarding specific pieces of gear they would like to use for glamour while on other classes and jobs. Here we see the skirt portion separated from the Boarskin Skirt. We separated skirt from the base design so players can coordinate this with many other outfits. We've heard players liked the boots from Boots of the Divine Light and wanted to coordinate with outfits from other classes and jobs, so we made this possible. The same goes for the Kirimu Coat. We've heard players liked this design and wanted to coordinate with more outfits from other classes and jobs, so we made this possible as well. I'm pleased to let you know that we're going to add crafting recipes for these pieces in Patch 3.2! Please look forward to it! And, while we're on the subject of cosplay, I know many players would like to see additional emotes they can use while taking amazing screenshots in their outfits, so recently, I discussed new emotes with the Motion team and they let slip that there just may be something in Patch 3.2! I wonder what kind of emotes they'll be.... HILDIBRAND RETURNS! Mogwands and other 1.0 1-Handed Wands are coming out! As mentioned previously, such as in PLL 24 and in this RPC thread, they are making 2-handed versions of these old assets. 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. As we've mentioned in the past, the dev. team continues to look into this. Before that, however, I wanted to let you all know that we're planning to introduce two-handed versions of popular conjurer and thaumaturge's weapons for content which currently reward one-handed versions. Their new designs will be based on their one-handed versions. Please note that when this is introduced the one-handed versions will no longer appear as a reward from the actual content; however, players will be able to exchange their weapons for the opposite version. The dev. team is currently working on this and aiming for release in Patch 3.2. After you give these new two-handed versions a swing, let us know how you feel about them! It will be possible to queue for Duty Roulette as a party for the following roulettes: Duty Roulette: Expert Duty Roulette: Level 60 Dungeons Duty Roulette: Level 50 Dungeons Duty Roulette: Leveling Duty Roulette: Trials Duty Roulette: Main Scenario Duty Roulette: Guildhest And more! 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. Zhexos Wrote:Greetings fellow PvPers, We have some additional details regarding The Feast to share with you. During the Letter from the Producer LIVE, we mentioned that only the opposing team can pick up medals that are dropped from your teammates. However, in situations where the medals are not picked up within a certain amount of time, then they will be returned to their owner. As The Feast will be played with an item level sync it will be treated the same as Seal Rock, where morale and the effects of materia will not be taken into account. Additionally, in order to open it up to a wider range of players, consumable items such as food and potions cannot be used.

I am 99% that everyone who wanted a flying mount thought of Gamera (Godzilla etc) (Dragonball even references it) So I think SE is doing a reference to it

Then I realized it wouldn't be possible due to the Adamantoise's anatomy... and the obvious lack of cannons.

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. The Red Wings ~By Fire Reborn~ Signature by Rhea Zaheela See Our Official Website For More Details

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.  Tomestones every 2 big patches, as always.
