We are pleased to announce that our development team is hard at work putting the finishing touches on the upcoming FINAL FANTASY XI version update, which is currently on track for a mid-June release.

This update promises to be a momentous one, with the first level cap increase in over six and a half years, and a veritable slew of new equipment and weapon skills to accompany it.

But that's not all! Adventurers across Vana'diel can look forward to experiencing the climactic conclusions of the popular Wings of the Goddess nation quest storylines, braving the eerie environs of the new Walk of Echoes area, taking up the gauntlet with new Trial of the Magians trials, and much more! With a host of job adjustments and other refinements on the way as well, this update is sure to offer something for players of all stripes.

As always, detailed previews will be forthcoming right here in the Topics section, so keep watching this space!



My thoughts: Interesting..

I don't have any more fingers! D:

Maybe 1 more earring? or Ammo slot?


A new earring would make it difficult indeed >< I hope its something like a backpiece or a waist piece, seeing as how we already have most slots filled lol XD

My guess is a Cape for Wings Missions. There's too many good belts, and both fingers and ears are occupied by the other expansions.

New Weapon Skills are interesting too, While one part of me wants to finally see a Burn-Compatible Greatsword WS akin to Raging Rush, part of me wants my Scythe merits to mean even more.

I doubt the belts would be better than the brown/black belt, and if they do release one better it'll *** up mnk's seeing as it's one of the major things that makes mnk so good.

If every DD can use it mnks will be less unique.

anyone else excited about this ._. I am! I'm sick of my hermit stick aka Teiwaz staff. Sexier looking Magian weaps would be sweet.

New WS?! I declare gimpy McGimpy pants. Look at the pic they provide... "Fail WS: Deals Ice elemental damage. Gimpness varies with TP." Can only assume of course, but seeing as how Nyzul WS weren't very good... I am not too hopeful.

Yes, Atonement was total ***for PLDs. Drakesbane also didn't do too much for DRGs. Stringing Pummel wasn't anything special for PUP. /sarcasm off

a new waist would be nice :D

Again, I have to say there's too many amazing waist slots.

Fettle(Augments willing)
Velocious
Black Belt and even Brown Belt
Swift
Virtuoso
Elemental Obi's


Compared to the waist slot options, the best Back slots seem like vaginas quivering nervously in anticipation for a *** 3 sizes too big.

Cerberus+1
Cuchulain's
Prism/Gleeman/Ixion

All comparatively provide a minimal boost to their waist-counterparts regarded in the same "Tier" of quality. This just hints big at a rare/ex reward possibility, but then again, Square has telegraphed something that makes perfect sense once, and cocked it up, so I'm by no means saying this is what will be, just, think about it.

Ninurta's sash was purposefully left out, since I tried to keep it as things that are "Amazing, yet actually possible to obtain by reasonable means."

Sea capes are still awesome and unbeated for jobs that use them. (ok only mages jobs+ninja, but still they are awesome)

And phalanxga. And just enspellga. Since sch has to use /whm instead of /rdm to get haste. At least until sch gets to 96.

Until you realize one strategem every two minutes will not suffice to actually use it to a point of actual usefulness.

Says the man with 12 bst.

Get it to 75 then try it out on an IT mob. You'll do 200-400 if you've got pretty good bst gear. Anything higher than 400 usually gets you killed or beat up pretty good anyways.

Works for haste or refresh.
Refresh 2:30 duration
Haste 3:00 duration

Can use one or the other constantly.
But at 99 a sch will be able to use both refresh and haste too.

And i'm sure rdm will get haste 2 and refresh 2.

That is on the low-end of the spectrum, but not unheard of to see.

Beastmasters tend to use Single-Axe /WHM or /DNC, which effectively cuts damage by approx.25% (Yes, that /NIN strike is that big of a deal)

Add in no Innate attack bonus or trait, and you have yourself a very weak weapon skill on the job, Primal Rend is much better overall.

I have nearly the absolute best (Minus SOME HQ) equipment pre-guttler for Beastmaster.

/WHM or /DNC Avrg about 500 Rampage on T-VT (on all connect)

/NIN likes to be more around the 700-800 mark, but I'm rarely /NIN against anything higher than DC-EM, which Rampage can hit will over 1,000.

As for Scholar, Scholar was never about being useful in a burn party, it was about bringing enough firepower survivability and Mp efficiency to solo down things like Krabkatoa in 30minutes.

I love that you don't have it at 75 defense. Only ever used when backed into a corner.

Ok then I have blu at 75. It only has 7 more skill base skill.

Though I only have 4 swd merits so a fully axe meritted bst would have more base skill.

Vorpal blade is fairly similar to rampage.

1 less hit but .5 higher ftp on first.

So overall vorpal blade has:

.5 ftp less, Same wsc, Same chance to crit based on tp and bst is probably going to have a good 5 more base dmg from just the weapon (not to mention acess to much much heavier DD gear)

All that and well geared bst should do more rampage then a blu vorpal blade and I'd be really embarrassed to average anywhere near 400 dmg with it. Hell I don't like it when lol Savage blade is that low
