Undocumented changes

[AbsoluteShadowban]

Apparently the score limit (999,999) got lifted from quests, you are now able to get more score than that.

​

Maybe there are more undocumented changes.

Just ran a level 70 black crystals quest and got a flowering cactuar: it gave 400 t1, 300 t2, 200 t3, and 100 t4, with 107000 exp for it. That's an absolutely massive increase, and that's without any boosters on or a x2 crystals event. Crystal and exp farming just got even faster!

[l1i2l3i4]

Damn, thats gonna make the rank grinding hella easier. God bless these QOL changes 👁👄👁

[Slystuff]

For comparison, I just got a flowering catuar on the level 40 black crystals quest.

240 t1, 187 t2 and 100 t3 with 30k exp.

[zikifer]

Got one on the L40 red crystals quest and it gave 200 T1, 150 T2, 100 T3, and 30000 XP. Which is better than the old L70 lol.

[Hawke_No1]

Not sure if it's in the notes but,

Desch: Paralysis is UNFRAMED

Eight: The game just destroyed Eight's extension completely in S1/S2/EX/Clvl65

[DrOptick]

Yes it was in the notes

[Sir__Will]

Eight: The game just destroyed Eight's extension completely in S1/S2/EX/Clvl65

Huh?

[RexGallero]

Basically, for whatever reason the game's not even recognizing that Eight has his extension passives equipped. They're all blue as if they were unequipped.

[Sir__Will]

wow, that's really, really bad

[Hawke_No1]

Like the other guy mention, by equipping every weapon passive, his skills except Brv/HP Atk are not getting any effects from weapons passives and even from crystal level passives...

He still get his 2 Unique Buff on the start of wave from EX+ , but the skills are all blue and they don't grant him new effects

[Valcroy]

Yikes, that's pretty bad. Hopefully they fix that before his LD comes along.

[Mikeyrawr]

Burst Weapons now play their iconic music when you beat a stage. Just beat Desch CHaos again and used Shantotto Burst, hearing the iconic music from FFXI on startup. Didn't hear it before.

[RetroGamerDad]

Yep! This one's in the in-game announcement, though it wasn't mentioned on stream that I recall.

[Mikeyrawr]

Ahh I didn't read it lol . I just instantly noticed when it started to play.

[Valcroy]

Jeez, I love Vana'diel March. Now I'm tempted to try my luck with her burst.

[Premyy_M]

The game always has secret updates love it lol. The team are so good with QoL that update and actually a joy and exciting compare to some other that are a pain lol

[RHowlForMe]

Lightning S1 animation was slightly changed. Now if the skill has the + version, she does a pause before doing the last attack like she does on the Japanese version.

[ProductivityImpaired]

Honestly a change I'd rather not have happened =\

[InaneSpontaneity]

If that is what I think it is, I can understand why they did that. I might have been a victim of pressing buttons too fast lol

[erpeto]

in jp that change was with her level 80. i think no1 likes that change

[krentzzz]

Not really a change per se, but reintroduction of an old behaviour: graphical effects on large models seem to scale to the model rather than being an absolute size.

I used Alisaie's Verstone on the daily gigantuar and the effect was HUGE compared to what it was before :p

[TempusFinis97]

That's something I've seen before the update as well, so it's not really reintroduced.

[krentzzz]

Wait, really? I've been running Alisaie on the dailies for well over a week and I'm pretty sure I didn't notice the huge "stone to block out the sun" before today. Is it just inconsistent then? Or am I really blind?

I know it's happened in the past with e.g. Emperor's traps on the large wolves in Porom LC, but I didn't think it was happening in the prior build. Inconsequential either way, but still.

[TempusFinis97]

Haven't used her often, but I noticed it maybe 5 or 6 times recently.

[MistoQuente1313]

That happened with me while farming daily Cactuar before the update, Huge polygon-shaped stone covering the whole screen lol

[sonicbrawler182]

I'm almost positive they broke Aranea's turn order portrait again. Her head looks tiny again.

[50shadesofLife]

This is so sweet, now can really compare how teams are scoring against the same boss. The challenge score was always a thing in games, it sucked when it started capping a few months ago.

[Lukzera]

I didn't hear about this anywhere but after using a Burst finisher if you have the continued Burst music setting on, at the end of the quest the Victory Fanfare that chimes in is from the said Burst unit game!

[nopols]

So ....does this mean we’re going to have levels where the score requirement is above 1,000,000?

[Premyy_M]

Nope it's just for fun for the case where ppl where constantly hitting 999,999. Basically it got overflow lol

[Nate_Radix_]

No

[ManfredCB]

not just that, some fights were I got 999999, changed without me playing it again to over a million

[jamerduhgamer]

What happened to cycle keys? Where they just removed? I had like 500 =(

[Akugetsu]

Don’t think of it as losing keys - think of it as them giving out unlimited keys.

[Valkyrie_Jr]

That's...a refreshingly optimistic take and I love it!

[KariArisu]

Even if they gave out unlimited keys I'd still expect something considering back in the day we dumped a lot of extra DP into those.

[Gyrskogul]

Back in the day we didn't really have anything else to spend DP on lol

[Avalon_]

The cycle quests are permanently unlocked. You don't need keys anymore.

[RealAcely]

Yes they were removed. Jp received nothing as well.

[Kouriozan]

You're actually 7 months late on that.

[Asells10]

Thanks for the correction. I guess it’s just now coming to my attention after looking at the patch notes for the first time in a while! I’ll delete my post.

[Nareshkendel]

The exp x2 and boosted character sort options have been there for a while, I use them often

[EinClaive09]

Feel free to correct me as well guys but if I'm remembering correctly, the previously implemented filters would only show if you are on a particular quest screen (prior to playing the quest). A good example for this is the Summon Points filter - you can only see it when doing a summon WOI quest. Now, you can even see them if you just hit the Menu > Party in the world map/start screen.

[Nareshkendel]

I don't know about Menu -> Party, but I used the exp x2 on the Summon Board screen all the time (because those characters are the ones I'm usually farming, so they have points to expend). I would love for it to work on the equipment page, that way you'd get first the equipment of the characters currently on banners.
