http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone ... b67875a7afLots of stuff for a "minor" patch. Although it's not really more content, I hope they do this kind of patch more often. Waiting 3-4 months for 2.1 sucked. Here's some things I felt like copy/pasting:
A few things for the PvPers (Just some, not everything):
Quote:
The following balance adjustments
apply only to the Wolves' Den:
- Arcanist and Summoner can no longer use the spell Resurrection.
- The status effect Disease no longer inflicts the heavy effect.
- [Paraphrased: You cannot queue for PvP with 2 ranged DPS or 2 melee DPS. You must take 1 ranged and 1 melee.]
- [Paraphrased: Players who queue solo, duo, or in a full group of four (i.e. everybody but 3-man) now earn more Wolf Marks, even if you lose.]
- [Paraphrased: "The Fury's Anthem" (PvP skill reset) cost: 4,950 → 1,485]
- Fixed: "An issue wherein melee attacks did not hit jumping targets in the Wolves' Den."
This one applies to PvE
and PvP:
Quote:
- The "decrease HP recovery via curing magic" additional effect of Storm's Eye has been reduced in potency from 50% to 20%.
- The "decrease HP recovery via curing magic" additional effect of Miasma and Miasma II has been reduced from 50% to 20%.
For anybody who ever wanted to rush and grab an Unspoiled Node:
Quote:
The following changes have been made to gathering points (GP).
- Players will now also accumulate GP when playing as a Disciple of War, Magic, the Hand.
- GP will no longer reset when changing to a non-gathering class.
Why this was even possible is beyond me:
Quote:
To prevent abuse of Vote Dismiss when casting lots on items, the Vote Dismiss function can no longer be used when an item is in the loot pool.
No more Sastasha every day:
Quote:
Duty Roulette: Low Level has been adjusted to improve matching for mid-level dungeons.
Party can vote to abandon a duty, allowing everyone to leave without penalty:
Quote:
The Vote Abandon function has been added, making it possible to abandon a duty without penalty [...]
Costs 14k GC seals:
Quote:
Players can now place a miniature aetheryte in the garden of their estate.
Once a miniature aetheryte has been set, Estate will be added to your list of teleport locations.
* Although the miniature aetheryte cannot be set as a favored destination, the cost of teleportation will be the same as that of favored destinations.
Hopefully there'll be less Warriors falling off of Titan's arena:
Quote:
An issue wherein Warriors could be knocked back even while under the effect of Holmgang.
Acheron furniture? More like
Archeron furniture.
Quote:
On rare occasions, a fourth treasure chest may appear upon defeating the last boss of the Labyrinth of the Ancients. This fourth treasure contains a Dimension Blade fragment that can be used to create the Savage Arc of Triumph furnishing.
Should this fourth treasure chest appear, all members of the alliance are allowed to cast lots.
* Players can only obtain one Dimension Blade fragment per week.
Apparently the Japanese update notes actually say that the Dimension Blade fragment counts towards your normal weekly CT loot lockout.
