Darklight gear will be dyeable. That's what I got out of that.

...did I miss anything important? Other than Coil getting even easier, I mean.

Coil is supposed to be easy? ._.
That'd be a change I'd personally welcome, as my attempt to beat T4 has been fruitless.

Jana · **04-24-2014, 11:48 AM**

T1 through T4 are pretty easy with a coordinated group, it's T5 that echo is mostly for.

I do appreciate them changing the displayed average time for ranged and melee DPS queues but it won't really make a difference in the actual waiting game. I also think they should make changes to PvP or add some other way to actually PvP before raising the rank cap and adding gear. It's too boring and most people don't really touch it as it is.

Kage · **04-24-2014, 11:51 AM**

I don't touch PVP because I just die every time and I have no idea what I'm doing *whistles*

I've gotten pretty good ok or good at doing T1-2 on both PLD and BLM.
My raid group pretty much did T4 for the clear and just threw ourselves at Twin.

It's definitely helped, that echo buff, but it's not something that makes it laughable at clearing when you haven't tightened up all the screws and such.

Are you doing T4 with a constant/consistent group Clover or are you mostly just using PF or DF?

Zyrusticae · **04-24-2014, 01:10 PM**

I'm with you guys in not touching Atma until they do something about the outrageous level of RNG.

Stuff like that is why I never bother with affixing in PSO2. Just not fun, at all. Of course, I expect them to nerf it eventually anyway just like they made Myths much easier to attain.

And I really don't appreciate them trying so very hard to incentivize PvP with gear instead of making the PvP more interesting itself. More than likely we will simply never/hardly ever see anyone wearing a complete set of the stuff.
