In the event major issues arise from checks and such, there is a possibility that we push the timing of the November version update back, and we appreciate your understanding.

There's a lot of random mobs in that artwork, typical Amano. The top left there's a black dragon(to the left of the purple snake) there's also a random Flammy looking mob in the ocean to the east and another leviathan looking reptile to the southwest of Hurkan.

Might see repeats of 119 weapons since there are 2 axes, one is WAR/BST and one is BST onry(safe to say the ilvl 116 axe will have a 119 version. Might end up being a Gun for COR or like a THF only dagger etc too...

I doubt delve will be until after January. And I always expected it be 2014 and beyond.

Many people will have so much to do with REM upgrades to 99 and beyond as well as AF armor. Delve probably wont be until March next year. To compete against Elder scrolls online.

and what about if next delve don't include those 2, ppl just guessing delve boss are the same as WKR... SE can change that anytime... they just did it once, no patter that you can affirm they will do it again.

Like @Presidentobama Said, sometime in 2014, Dic update will probably include the Relic/Empy armor update that was suppose to hit November,

In one of their teaser posts for the German forums, the upgrades specified were "relic, mythic, and empy weapons, and artifact, relic, and empy armor" however that seems to of been a mistranslation. I'd like to think at some point, they'll all be remade/+3'd to match Run and Geo's equivalents though.

No love for 85s, the quoted part is in reference to a new Magian Trial path for WoE weapons that bypasses NM camping and seals. Based on what they said, this path sounds like it'll be much quicker, though possibly a little pricier. They went as far as to say "the new path is meant to be used going forward, while the old path is not" or something to that effect. 90 Empys and 99 WoE weapons will be used to unlock the WS through some other means. If you're midway on an old path WoE weapon though, I'd wait until after the update to complete it. They said they'll be lowering the mat costs (coins, die, residues) by more than half.

Well, this is a theory of mine...


Just to add potential zone lines.. There is a blocked zone line in Morimar on the South Western Edge of the map. It is south west of waypoint #4 by some spiders. There is also a blocked zone line on the North Western part of Yorica Weald as well. It is located to North West of waypoint #3.

Fine by me with the level 90 requirement, now wish they'll increase Plate drop rates.

To add another to this, the NW zoneline of Cirdas Caverns is still blocked as well. I wouldn't be surprised if all of the above mentioned zone lines connected to a single gates area that lead to Piedmont, considering they're all leading towards the N/NW direction of the map. From both the mission CSs and the art, we know that Piedmont is in the NW. The 7th has yet to be mentioned in the CSs, and there's far too many creatures (none of which has an adventurer with it, like the other 6 Naakuals) to say which direction or creature is the 7th Naakual.

Also if you go to the link in the original post that made this thread it shows the empy WS thing there.

I can't wait to steal sp abilities off of ...err...

Also, assuming they all stack, ES + RDM SP2 + Saboteur would probably give you a 3 minute sleep on pretty much every mob that isn't immune.

People seem to be especially mad about the new RDM sp (understandably), but I'm having a hard time thinking of situations where the GEO one would useful. The idea behind 1-hour abilities is that, since they're so useful, you'd want to save them for clutch situations. I don't see how a bigger bubble would make much of a difference, unless it was so huge that I could stand out of range of Delve boss aoe attacks and still hit them with an indi spell (which I highly doubt is the case).

perosnally i dont see use for BST one
Beastmaster
Unleash
Increase Charm rate and reduces the recast time for Sic and Ready.
Charm WTF who still use that and recast for sick and ready, no real use when pets get tp so slow...

Monk
Inner Strength
Increases your max HP.
what happened to the counter ability, i remember they used to talk acount countering everything for MNK ability

Corsair
Cut Card
Reduces the recast time for party members' special abilities.
I just dont undertand this SP... we have wild card already, 3rd roll idea was something nice, let all rolls to be 11s or lucky numbers is another great idea but intead of that they giving us this, just dont undertand :/

Geomancer
Widened Compass
Expands the range of geomancy spell effects.
well with this ja, i wonder what is going to be the new range for indi spell and geo spells, if range is huge, geomace wont need to be too close of Monsters and can avoid take dmg, also all depend on if mobs have 20 range tp moves with death effect lol
