Dev Tracker - Discussion

Isn’t one JP and one Eng?

For the record, for people who think there aren't (m)any new players coming to FFXI: new players and returnees very frequently post on the FFXI subreddit looking for help or info. And those are just the ones who post, so there are likely far more people who just start playing without mentioning it publicly.

I need that new merch. I hope it'll be online.

With everything locking down, more and more people seem to be returning. I myself came back after a 7-year hiatus. And I keep running into player after player with similar stories.

I'm part of a FFXI group on Facebook, and that's completely exploded in the last few weeks.

Better translations of the weapons now that I had more time.

No weapons for you NIN!

These are only the ones they showed, there might be more!

It will finally be nice to have actual weapons to go with the cool models that they have released as log-in or mog bonanza rewards. Kind of shocked to not see a great katana on there since there is one of those, but it's probably a work-in-progress.

So these weapons are only limited edition from bonanza? Lame if that's the case.

Can you add the Club from two pages back to the translation above?

Yes they are mog bonanza only, and they specifically said not deliverable to other characters on the same account.

Move along then, nothing to see here, back to spamming REMAs. Those are the kinds of weapons they need to add to master trials, such a waste....

I think you are looking at the axe? It does look like a club thats for sure.

One thing I just thought of are a lot of these are already available. I wonder if they are changing the current items that were already implemented or adding totally new item versions? Example of already added items (rank 4 previously:)

https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Demonic_Axe
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Hotengeki
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Grudge

They also had a few lockstyle head pieces:

https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Gazer%27s_Helmet
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Retching_Helmet
https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Curm._Helmet

I am thinking they are going to add new versions, as these are all level 1. It would be strange if they change level 1 items to level 99, but there has been other strange things.

No Katana?
NIN really is SE's unwanted child atm, isn't it?

What do you mean? There is a Great Katana:

We are on the all jobs sword.......

My luck, I would win the horn haha.

I just re-watched the video, and they are planning on adding more weapon types (not shown in todays video) to the next bonanza which will be in February 2021.

The H2H has Dragon Blow, not Dragon Plow, kind of like Denouements has Colossal Blow. It should be a similar effect.

Those weapons are cool and nice, but they better be rank3 or lower, because im not giving up my kupo shield for those.

Rank 3 is the new rank 1!

The weapons before as lvl 1 lockstyles were rank 4. They might now be "rank 2".

Fast Blade
II Fast II Blade
Fast Blade: Tenshodo Drift
Fast & Blade
Fast V
Fast Blade VI
Blade VII
F8 of the Bl8de
F9

Twice as fast

I wonder why they would lock those weapons behind such a random crapshoot of a contest like that.

Because most of these pieces are pretty meme worthy as it is, it is fitting they are in a meme of a contest.

because they are a moronic company

Some of the stats on those are very interesting an unique. Ready -1 second, sword with INT/high MATT, INT WS modifier, No defense loss Berserk etc. They make fairly interesting weapons. If they went the route of "Final Paradise" that would be one thing, but those are actually very neat looking weapons. I would hate if it was solely locked behind that event.


so since they are just throwing any random features on these weapons, there's still hope NIN weapon is "Utsusemi persists during Area of Effect attacks"
