I'm surprised no one has said anything about those people with current relic weapons. "Oh you got a lvl 75 amano?lul! Check out my lvl 99 <insert awesome lvl99GK name here> and it only costed me 500k!!!!!!!!!"

That can already be said about a shitton of Relic/Mythic weapons, lol. That's just bad on SE's part for not making those weapons the best for every job and not just selected jobs.

Didnt they say you could "enhance relics/Mystics" through a Quest though?
Probably could make those pretty epic.

SE said that they will be able to aug their items, making relic/mythic not useless.

I have absolutely no idea what people are bitching about!

This is exactly what this game needs to revitalize the player base and bring back a lot of people who got sick of the endgame due to repetition.

I applaud SE for taking this step, and any complaint I have is that it may be a touch overdue.

My only concern is perhaps a bit of server overpopulation once people get re-integrated into the game.

Good move, SE, you got my MMO dollar back and I have high hopes for XIV!

augment their items? (is that what you meant by aug?)
Because the augment system is trully awesome.

I guess if SE announced that the game will be ending on 7/1/10 instead of the level cap going to 99, there would be a lot less drama.

I'm just happy that everything people have been so dramatic and QQing over at 75 will soon become insignificant. Hopefully this will help people pull their heads out of their ***.

It's a whole new game now, and I'm very happy about it.

^this!

I dislike how it will pretty much completely invalidate merited spells...

Oh look you learn it or something better anyways...

At least the job abilities it doesn't matter since you just use more jas but spells you get new ones and don't look back alot

Now now who said that Rdm will ever learn Paralyze II or III?

Maybe SE will give back the merits or something, who knows.

And with my ability to chainspell T5 spells kirin will be dead before it smns anything anyways!

I've decided to take on the attitude that "Whatever happens is gonna happen, might as well not worry and just roll with it."

Honestly, I'm sure that SOMETHING fun will happen, and that'll make it all worth it to me. I think we're all getting roped up thinking we're now invalid, when really it's just a game; none of it really matters, let's juts have some fun, ya know?

I have a feeling You'll stop learning JA's after a certain point and just level up. I really don't think SE is up for creating 24 levels worth of content for every job when they're still in the middle of developing/testing for ffxiv. I could be wrong but it's just another theory i thought I'd throw out there.

Because they pretty much have to. Melees get more stats and gear and sometimes jas/ws to get better. But a 99 mnk in 75 mnk gear and 75 mnk jas/ws will do ALOT more dmg then a 75 mnk.

Mages progression is based on there spells. A 99 rdm... yeah it has more mp than a 75. And sure it can enfeeble a little easier but not better which might even matter sometimes. And nuke yays.

For example you wouldn't use a 75blm whose last spell he learned was freeze no matter how pimp his gear is

I highly doubt SE will give the merits back. But...

SE quotes:
The scope of our vision for job adjustments does not stop there, however. Maintaining battle balance remains one of our highest priorities. As such, we intend to conduct reviews on an ongoing basis and introduce new equipment and adjust weapon skills as necessary. It is anticipated that the level cap increase will impact the balance of certain elements more than others. We will keep a close watch on these areas and, if the situation demands, review and reconsider even the adjustments that have been announced. Our ultimate goal is to provide the most rewarding, balanced play environment possible to all adventurers.
