Alexander
By the end of October, around half of active players have cleared Alex Normal.
Savage clear numbers are lower than expected.
They will keep an eye on clear numbers and if needed perform adjustments for Savage on 3.15.
For the next Alexander on 3.2, it'll probably not use the same Normal/Savage division.
Yoshida ideally want to implement Easy/Medium/Savage three- tiered difficulties, but on the other hand they are lacking the staff to implement that much.
Yoshida wants to implement a cross-world, raid-only, party finder system. However, it is still only an idea he have and no real work has been done on it.

This should have happened a month or two ago. Now people are going to get body upgrade items, i205/210 weapons, AND Savage is going to be nerfed.

Four-man Dungeons
3.1 Expert roulette will be composed by only the two new dungeons.
Neverreap and Fractal will become a new "Level 60 Dungeons" roulette.
High-level roulette will be renamed "Level 50 Dungeons".
The staffs perform final quality checks on Dungeons by playing roles they're not accustomed to, leading to situations like DPSes that only cares about their DPS, Tanks panicking because of that, casual healers, etc.
Regarding a hard four-man dungeons, it will be hard to implement as the burden on healer will be intensive. However, Yoshida wants to implement it, if just once.


>instead of expert roulette having 4 dungeons you now will run the same 2 over and over while you have a separate lv.60 dungeons roulette for the other 2 to run over and over

>>121366583
>Savage clears less than expected

Because the gear is shit and there's very little reason to push into it hard enough it's not even good glamour gear it's just the colorable version of the gordion crap. eso gear is passed out like candy and it's i200. Savage is i210 oh boy so much better i sure am glad we got a full group of some of the best players in the game to complete this content to get slightly better gear that makes that same content a tiny bit easier to get the rest of the group gear.

Savage would be so much more sought after if it was like i230 gear and had a unique badass look.
>>
>>121367319
Thats because they have a blacklist for all the shitters.

>Neverreap and Fractal will become a new "Level 60 Dungeons" roulette.

I'm ok with that, 2 daily eso bonuses.
>>
>>121367193
yes, because it's pretty unfair for tanks to have to try to maximize two main stats as opposed to just one like all the other classes, and most of their 'tank accessories' that drop in raids are unused

they're going to be changing the way tank damage is calculated, probably by making VIT their main damage stat, making melded accessories unneeded. they have stated that raid accessories will be the best accessories for tanks. they aren't 'taking away' anything, you fucking retard

>Adjustments will be made to address TP issues, but no adjustment will be made to Paladin's DPS.
Which means PLD will still not be wanted for the highest tier of Raids due to insane DPS checks

>They are aware that currently Clemency and Divine Veil do not have many uses in current content.
Rather than adjusting how they work, it sounds like they'll simply make mechanics that make it useful to bring a PLD.
>>
>>121367361
Nah, savage should have just been optional shit but the same ilvl as normal alex but you get a shiny title to show off :^)

People only did Alex Savage because it had higher level, even less did Second Coil savage because it only offered titles. No one cares for anything but gear.
>>
Attention friends and fellow XIV players. It has come to my attention that the Japanese playerbase has a stronger and healthier clearing population of Raiders. Their success is primarily from the creation and maintenance of a region wide black list. In this fashion, I have drafted and proposed a framework for a new and healthier Party Finder for North America.

To begin with, I propose a panel of 14 judges, overseen by me. I will be contacting top FCs around the country for volunteers. I will then play with these judges, and verify their skill by doing Alex Savage 1 to 4 with them. This panel will hear complaints and put offending players on trial. If found guilty, they will be put on the blacklist. These trials will be streamed for transparency.

To better promote honest play, we will also institute a policy of electing a "chronicler" in any PF. Before your party enters, it will be your onus to elect and declare a chronicler for that party. The chronicler will record and upload the footage for the other seven members on the community panel site (I will be contacting people to get this hosted ASAP). Failure on the chronicler's part to do his job will result in immediate blacklisting.

With these policies in place, I feel that we can put together a much stronger and healthier Party Finder experience.

Signed, Roland Theron.

Also because Normal Mode existed and many players just said fuck "Savage" because of SCOB Savage.

3 tiers would have been fucking great. They could have saved Savage for 3.1 and given titles to people who clear it while putting the gear into the middle tier.

>>121367145
You don't have to have a static to clear. If you don't mind going slower, just make a savage linkshell or FC, get online when you can, and grab whoever is on at the time.

You won't be able to race for world first, but you can still clear it with enough patience.
>>
>>121367740
>will probably yield a few
This is really vague. A few per party? Per alliance? Between all three alliances? You could assume any of the three.

A few per party per run sounds a little too easy to get, per alliance sounds okay, and a few across the 72 would be god awful.

every fucking time i see someone screaming 'it's SAVAGE guys! if you didn't want SAVAGE difficulty then stick to alex normal and leave the CHALLENGING content to us "real raiders!"' i want to fucking punch them in their stupid fat fucking faces. here's the thing- people are confusing Savage Second Coil with Alex Savage, and they are completely different. Second Coil Savage was created after and separate from the normal Second Coil for the tip top raiders to complete, purely for bragging rights and a title- the gear that dropped was the same as the regular version. Alex Savage is being presented as the 'Normal Raid Content' for this patch cycle- it's not meant for the tip-top raiders, its made for the general raiding population to complete. I've actually seen a couple people stating they wish that the A3S difficulty had been applied to all of the Savage floors- which is so fucking ridiculous i'm surprised these people can put their pants on in the morning without snapping their necks.

the fact that only a very small handful of players on each server have completed A3S/A4S this long after initially released shows the failure of SE in developing content. Many perfectly capable raiding groups have fallen apart or have put themselves on hold until the next raid patch cycle just because they can't even get close to beaten A3S- not from lack of desire or 'git gud'-ness, but they just can't see themselves spending 60+ hours practicing one fight for slightly better gear than they currently have. And that's not even including A4S, which is another huge wall that people have to climb- when people see all the work and time and effort they'll have to put forth just to beat this Standard Raid Content, it's easy to see why so few people have completed it.

3.0's raiding content can only be considered a design failure by anyone with a half-working brain and I hope to god that they learned their lesson and fix their shit by the time 3.2 rolls around

They're only taking melded accessories away from tanks. Healers are getting a buff to melded accessories.

When healers meld their crafted accessories, it's so they can put accuracy (and maybe a LITTLE VIT) onto them. The crafted accessories available to them in 3.2 will be a higher iLevel comparatively than crafted accessories available to them at any other point since 2.0/2.1, and are still fully pentameldable with Accuracy. Plus, in 3.2, healers can meld (but not overmeld) accuracy to ALL of their gear, including raid drops and tomestone gear, so they won't have to sacrifice any Mind to get the Accuracy and VIT from melds.

DPS will also now be able to meld VIT to their gear without sacrificing their main stat, and/or meld accuracy to their raid/tomestone gear to meet accuracy caps without having to put on some awful Acc/SkS piece.

Tanks are the only ones getting a nerf to crafted gear, but they'll still be able to meld 15 VIT to any Slaying accessories (including raid/tomestone gear) and meld 15 STR to any Fending accessories (including raid/tomestone gear), so they're being nerfed relative to full-pentamelded, but buffed relative to any existing combination of Fending and Slaying.

It's a huge overall improvement to the game's gearing, that comes at the cost of a modest nerf to tanks (and only tanks). The only question is whether those "damage calculation adjustments" are going to nerf tank DPS into the ground or not.

No, there isn't really a reason, but that doesn't necessarily mean they wouldn't do it. There's only so far they can go in trying to keep the "Tanks should use always tank in VIT and tank stance and healers should not DPS, ever" crowd calm by saying they don't design fights around that stuff even as they obviously design fights that hinge on it, and bringing tank damage down to that level with no way to reach current levels would make that farce easier to maintain.

Crafted gear in 3.2 will allow healers to add in excess of 500 accuracy to their gear without even doing any truly insane melds. 850+ accuracy is definitely going to be enough to hit anything.

Depending on whether they put natural accuracy onto healer gear again or not, how much they increase the cap by, and what the exact rules for melding raid/tomestone gear are, healers might need to hold on to one or two pieces of crafted gear to stay comfortably capped, but they'll definitely be able to hit the A4S accuracy cap even in the worst-case scenario.
