Upcoming Version Update Details (02/14/2007)

<!-- TITLE AREA END --><!-- TEXT AREA -->
In the upcoming version update, we plan on introducing the next segment of the Treasures of Aht Urhgan missions, as well as a number of new features and improvements that will make your life in Vana'diel more enjoyable than ever before!

Check out today's Topics for a preview of some of the changes.

New Missions

In the next version update, we will be continuing the Treasures of Aht Urhgan missions where they left off in the October update. The next installment will include the appearance of new monsters, the four Mamool Ja overlords, the mysterious Dark Rider, and many other surprises you won't want to miss!

Merit Points

A new graphic effect will be added that will let surrounding players know when you have gained a merit point. Also, you will be able to switch between experience point mode and limit point mode in any area, not just your Mog House.

*You will not be able to switch modes while under a level restriction (such as in a battlefield or during an Assault mission), or when participating in Besieged.

*Allocation of merit points will still only be possible within your Mog House.

Item Storage and Card Cases

The NPC who stores certain equipment sets will begin accepting relic-level armor in the upcoming version update. Also, the arrow-bundling NPC has expanded her wares to include cases that allow you to carry 99 corsair cards as one item.

Map Marking

The next update will see the appearance of an NPC that will mark your magical maps to make it easier to find those special NPCs, such as the minstrel of melodies, and the item storage NPCs.

Merit Points:

Being able to switch between limit points and experience points in the field sounds like a nice touch.


Item Storage:

Storing relic armor?! Took them long enough. ^_^;; I really hope they make it so it handles partial sets and +1 pieces, but I'm not optimistic. Here's hoping....

About darn time! I'm with you Varda, would be nice to store just individual pieces, but I have a feeling that now I'll have to finish WHM relic lol.

haaaaaa. im really looking forward to the exp/merit mode switch anywhere, ive gone out in exp/merit mode in the wrong ONE TOO MANY FUCKING TIMES AND IT TAKES FOREVER TO GO ANYWHERE RRAAAAWRAWRAWRAWR so thats awesome. New "merit up" animation, hmm, think it looks the same as lvl up just has a different sound? It probably said, but i just missed it, lets all wait for aang the fucking english nazi to come in and correct me.
 
yar, just need mnk body and I can put 4 sets of relic on NPC. Dunno what the hell I'll do with the space...
 
Or you can put all the AF2 sets in there and continue to hold all the pops without any more complaining! Man, this is looking good. There are lots of possibilites.. lets see, 5 Kirin pops, even more gods pops,...

Fortunately for my sake, sky pops are all rare!
 
lol you win this time! But nonetheless, this is bittersweet. On one side, it saves precious inventory space for those with 5/5 AF2, but on the other side.... you must have 5/5 AF2. I am 2/5 on SMN so either I suck up my loss for now and keep it 2/5, or go for 5/5 and save that 2 inv space. Not to mention when i start going for my other jobs.
