I will not deny that her reactions are the type of lady I absolutely adore, lol.
They'll be talking about a road map for updates.
They're discussing the makyo instance now.
You can set the difficulty, size, and rewards for it, that'll change the type of gear and strength of it. They'll be using the statue parts they mentioned yesterday to determine it. I guess it'll be like Maze Mongers but simpler.

It sounds like the drops will remain the same but the drop percentage will change depending on the configurations. So if you want to play with fewer people, you can lower the difficulty to do so or if you think you can do it harder you can do it for a better chance.
They designed this so that many different people and styles can play it. The reentry restrictions will be a little lax and they intend on making it so you'll always leave with something, I think.
They're talking about a "My Farm" system now, I think. Holy shit, sounds like they're trying to do Harvest Moon in FFXI, lol. Harvesting, sheep, fields, mining... They'll be giving an adventurer their own island?

Awesome.
That sounds odd. I guess that means it'll be excellent at magical tanking and striking against Elemental Spikes.
Sounds like they are being smart, melee attacker with its own resource system rather then MP dependent.

Elemental runes will increase the ability powers and give auto-attacks an En- effect
Enchant runes are divided into Attack and Defense runes. Attack will deal big elemental damage and Defense runes will increase elemental defense and do various things. I missed what they said but it's supposed to be pretty strong in the hands of a skilled player, something about a 1.5x effect.
They're talking about the general road map now.

Sounds like Sorcerer with the en- spells. Wonder if that's a self-target buff only.

They're increasing the power of Protect as low as 1.5x the current values and with merits maybe as high as 3x - 4x, I think.
DRK isn't going to get any buffs right now. They're buffing other jobs at the moment and taking a look and see stance with them.
They're thinking of adding the item that'll be the next step up from the Black Belt.

anything on that roadmap about lowering mythic requirements?

They're trying to solve the issue of Summoner pets failing to do somethign when they lose their target, I think? They want to solve it but it'll take a bit more time.
DRG's Call Wyvern ability may get a merit point addition, to reduce the time required to call it, I believe. At least, that's what they're considering.

Summoner does have questionable programming for the pets at times.
They don't play the game at all. Same reason Red Mage is where it's at.

I believe they're considering making the furniture storage available from all nations.
They'll be adding a system so you can play the monsters, it seems. It'll be a form of PVP, I guess lol. Monster vs PCs or Monster vs Monster.
lol, wait. You'll be able to raise your Monster levels as you play as them and you can become a Notorious Monster or something? It'll be something similar to BLU's system where as you level up you can set abilities and stuff I guess?

Think that is just the road map they already released earlier this year and they are going over some details for the items.

Whoa, that's a pretty big deal. It sounds weird, but I think a lot of people have had the idea in their heads since the very beginning for whatever reason.
I always used to imagine that the GMs were controlling the monsters from some top-secret location.

They tried mob battles in ToAU and it was popular for a week...
Well now we know its possible! Anyways the actual idea of the system was spoken about a couple months ago, but it was only "Play as a monster system" and nothing else was given about it.
Shouta

YOU become the monster, it seems.
So they can't just give the players normal PVP? I don't PVP myself, but people would like a more polished PVP environment.
That would actually be fun if true.

Apparently, it'll be pretty much anywhere with a few restrictions because of sizes, I think.
They had PvP with the games, the game just isn't or ever could be balanced in normal PvP situations, so they want to do player battles in monster costumes to make it easier for them to balance it.
Lol can you imagine the teams people make for this? there are so many creatures in the game, and if its more then 1 on 1 it could be an interesting past time XD.
Haha I still remember Shouta's korrigan ruling our server for like a week lol

Yep, it did and everyone was PISSED. I was up to like 250-300 wins or something.
Neat, you can customize the UI to whatever you want to look like it.
