Agreed. Whoever is in charge of items doesn't understand those jobs, sadly.

33 > 23

;)

The addition of wardrobe 5-8 was timely

SAM got out like a bandit.

Not like you seriously gonna wear it over Flamma. Although amazing acc piece for Gardening Stick, can't lie.

They just slap on generic attack/mab/macc/acc on BLU, and throw in pet trash for PUP that results in literally nothing for the auto.

Thou's legs thou OMG RIPPP AF hands

Kasuga body has just about every stat you'd ever want for a Sam tp body. Genuinely shocked they put dt on it

Enjoy trying to make either piece compete in a TP set with the equivalent Sakpata pieces.

...but major bravo for the 90s Bulls throwback.

Did they just killed Idris with the skill 12? Or am I misunderstanding?

Skill+ and effect+ are two very different things.

Ok phew ty. Tho then that item is completely useless unless they add a next higher tier to geo

Yeah and the +2 version of the earring is awesome, +3 Refresh on top of the +1 Avatar Lvl and the +5 BP Damage. Bye-Bye Gelos Earring, you had a good run.

But even more epic is the Beckoner's Horn +2:
DEF:113 HP+51 MP+144 STR+19 DEX+20 VIT+21 AGI+20 INT+30 MND+30 CHR+30 Accuracy+51 Magic Accuracy+51 Evasion+76 Magic Evasion+120 "Magic Def. Bonus"+9 Summoning magic skill +18 "Avatar's Favor" effect +4 Haste+6% "Refresh"+3 Damage taken -9% Avatar: Accuracy+51 Ranged Accuracy+51 Magic Accuracy+51 Set: Augments "Blood Boon"

That will most likely add another Tier to avatar's favor and possibly be the long awaited maximum decrease to the blood pact timer from the current 21 to 20 seconds. Plus it has higher damage taken than even the Nyame or Bunzi head armors. I'm definitely going for the horn immediately as my first Empy +2 upgrade.

The Beconker's body, hands and feet +2 are pretty good upgrades also. Legs +2 are okay but doesn't outdo Apogee +1 legs. I'm glad SMN finally got some decent new upgrades since the Bunzi set didn't really have much that benefited avatar stats. And Nyame Path D is a joke for blood pact damage when you have Apogee +1, Artifact +3, Relic +3, Merlinic gloves, Cait Sith Crown, etc.

Really hoping Empy+3 will have some more unique stats for some jobs. Only a few really got any substantial upgrades this update; many pieces are just increased base stats with DT/PDL/WSD slapped on. Not super impressive after Ody gear.

Its our final hope... why they hate BLU :/

Perhaps they’re saving some good stuff for a whole new HTMB.

That’s all I got to possibly cheer up the BLU lovers. I do have sympathy. They couldn’t even add BLU onto crep cloak? Like, c’mon. Throw the job a bone.

Did the math on the free charge to the Sortie KI from their time based accumulation
If you arrived to Sortie at the exact same time every day, it would take you 25 days in a row to get a free second charge to enter Sortie, they are really stretching this out

Edit: should prolly show my math
20 hours for free charge: 1200 minutes
24 hours if you arrive at the same time: 4 extra hours -> 240 minutes
You accumulate 1/5 of that so 240 / 5 = 48 minutes gained
1200 / 48 = 25 times

Maybe they'll finally resume job adjustments after they're done releasing Sortie and Ody stuff.

Remember when they said they had to delay Empy gear because they had to do the job adjustments for all jobs since Empy gear had the adjustments with them?

Holy ***, yes. IIRC we read that shortly before Christmas?

This slaps - hard.

Wow. To think someone got PAID to write, perform, and video that hot garbage....and meanwhile legitimate musicians are giving away concerts for free that no one attends.

*Checks stats of the new gear and see what's all that BLU QQ posts are about*

*Sees COR getting enmity-(which you can cap before this update) and lol recycle on the earring.*


Okay I guess it's BLUs being vocal as usual.....COR deserves 2x times more QQ posts than BLU for this! :P

I assumed that was just master levels? Maybe they'll do the job changes before they release +3


Also lol at Blu getting 3k TP ws at 1k tp
