That's just role abilities, which you should have all of them as a level 50 class anyway, you'll still get your job abilities.

Changing classes or jobs outside of sanctuaries will no longer incur a penalty to action cooldowns.

Already the best patch.

Oh poo poo, enhanced gp regeneration at level 70 for gathering classes.

Good patch: Legendary nodes and unspoiled locations will no longer disappear while players are in the midst of gathering.

Could just use baseline abilities in PotD like I plan to. You start at 50.
(And it's not like PotD isn't a mindless slog anyways. Especially with +99/+99)

Where I stand:

About 100 scripts away from my shire weapon
214/240 on my 1st Anima weapon umbrite step
NIN 60 with a Mnk 59
MSQ Ready
very passively listened to some of the changes that are coming so a lot of this is gonna be fun to exp.
I subbed in the middle of HW and burned through all i could last summer. excited to play along side a lot of people this time (if that makes sense)

Going to try to finish those weapons before i jump back into MSQ
About to SAM it up. I love this game.

EXP that can be gained for players over Level 60 delivering collectable items under Level 60 to a House of Splendors Exchange is now be capped at 10,000.

Hmmm. So items that are exactly level 60 still give full EXP? Nice if so, I have a bunch of red scrip collectables saved up, mostly for red scrips since I anticipated an EXP nerf but if there's no EXP nerf I'll get like 15 million gathering EXP in the first 5 minute of logging in.

Probably just typed wrong but hey, I can hope right?

Patchnotes are cool and good, per usual the base tomes set seems underwhelming (assuming this is them: http://img.finalfantasyxiv.com/t/fe38225b3d83e182213d5a4a99dc705ae58ea156_163.png?1497529462) but thankfully this time we get AF3 right away to glamour over anyways.

Looking forward to the job guide later today.

Is there a useful thing I can look at to see what the new play style is for bards? I know cast times are gone but it looks like songs work differently now and I wanna read up on it.

I googled but all it gets is Reddit speculation and three awful useless videos

"In order to reduce server congestion after the release of patch 4.0, players who are inactive for thirty minutes will be logged out automatically."


FYI, if it hasn't changed from the HW launch days, you can afk while in the middle of a craft and the game won't kick you.

Yeah, looks like attribute points are essentially folded into traits now. The ones that give you stat points now give a lot more stat points.

It probably no longer matters since gear will determine how good you are at healing/dpsing. I'd imagine they will adjust the base ACN stats so that int and mnd aren't gimped in either scenario.
