You never know how the random floor will work.

It might be a random floor between 1-100, or it might be a random set out of 5 sets.

Say like... Floor 1-10 is a 20% chance, floor 11-15 is a 60% chance, floor 16-20 is a 20% chance.

Adjust as you will, but I think they would favor players getting closer to the boss rather than far way while still giving you that bad luck chance.

Just my guess anyways.

This is very sad, because as I read this, I was thinking the same thing. Its really a shame because I've been looking forward to this before any announcement of a v2. Their NEEDS to be some progression, with a choice of randomness, imo. They better not *** this up

Wonder why they are taking out the weapons from the bosses.

To make room for full junk item drops? :D
Alexandrite all for Quiznor!!

fixed


I suspect the random NMs on floors will drop (or have a chance to drop) cotton purse,while the more elusive boss floors will drop,or have a chance to drop Linen.

Good thing I'm already 3/6 on a static for this!

The upgrade items are dropping from the new Nyzul, they just won't be on the test server for us to find out what drops what when they add it.

0.000000312% is the probability of getting 5 boss fights if you can complete 5 fights in 30 minutes' time. That's basically winning the lottery. 0.000125% is the probability of getting 3 consecutive boss fights even. Though you can argue that they can be teleported to a floor right below a boss and conceivably finish it in time to fight a boss. Sorry if I'm being skeptical, but I've hated my "luck" with this game. I'd rather things be based on skill than sheer luck.

I was just about to mention this. The bosses may not be necessary to upgrade your gear. Simply spam floors for regular mob drops.

Not enough info right now.

Well, there's a 0.05% chance of getting a boss run right off from the first "random floor" you choose.

Did I Miss something?

There are 5 boss floors. There are 100 total floors.
Thats a 5% chance. not a 0.05% chance...

I'm looking forward to it. I always enjoyed Nyzul, though got burnt out on it after a while.

My group did a ton of clears before they even let you start saving progress.

I just hope the upgrade items are reasonable. That's all. With the new relic and empyrean 95/99 upgrade items, my hopes for things like this are really...eh. I'm worried.

Look, they already said they aren't going back to happy days of Abyssea. VW is proving that point and with this I think it will be no different than doing Salvage for years and never seeing that DAMN bee pop.

When I think about that bee... why... why did I let myself remember :\

Nope, with alex being more widely available of course they would do that BS.

Prices will get higher than they already are and after about... 18 months it will drop down below 15k

Allow me to add another complaint on that topic.

Let me get my 99 Amano and let me do it now. Put my time in on this thing already, god dammit.

So far all the objectives I have gotten are all the same.One enemy leader floor, it was Div E sepid but wasn't named as such, was named head4. Still 30 minute time limit. As for the random floor so far it has taken me 1-10 then 1-7.

Why it couldn't be:

Hello adventurer, our research into Nyzul Isle has been quite fruitful however we were quite surprised to discover that unexplored regions of the ruins lay below the sea floor! We hired some Qiqirn to explore and chart the region but they never returned. You're quite knowledgeable on Nyzul Isle right? How about a trade? I'll give you this key to the lower levels in exchange for you exploring the region for me.

Obtained Key Item: Nyzul Isle Subterra Order

Welcome to Floor B1
Objective: Defeat all enemies.

I just hope to god the Alex drop rate is good, I've been doing salavage for like months now and I'm only at 1k alex ; ;

40k Amps, the rest of the Alex and the 3 T4's killed that I have pops for and I'll have my nirvana <_<

Well and the Bhalran fight, but I heard thats more of a 'mini game' then an actual balls out battle

So farm it seems it warp you randomly but within 10 levels. Best I got solo was level 21. Specified enemy are very hard, can't kill solo. One was called "Head 16" it was a qiqirn with incredibly high EVA another was "Head" something, it was a pudding that raped me quickly. I'm guessing Head NMs must be killed to upgrade head ? Maybe.. Need to look at the mob dats.

The only evidence I could find of it was a link from BG that led to an obscure and very basic website, written in Japanese, purporting to be found from .dat mining.

If it is true, SE is admitting through this gear that attack doesn't cap at 999. Askar Body +5 states attack +5% max +50. With attack at 952, 5% is 47 which gives you 999 attack.
