[dev1111] Job Adjustments: Corsair
Snake Eye
Recast time reduced from fifteen minutes to five.
Additional merit points no longer reduce casting time, but instead increase the likelihood that the next roll will result in a sum total of XI when a 5 or higher is showing.
Fold
Recast time reduced from fifteen minutes to three.
Additional merit points no longer reduce casting time, but instead increase the likelihood of resetting the Phantom Roll recast timer.

Said this already in the 101 thread responding to someone that put it up there, but...

I'm excited.

Snake Eye becomes freaking badass.

And this frees up your fold merits to (most likely) go into Winning Streak. More XIs for longer duration. For. The. Win.

sounds nice.. but well normally saving Snakeeye to get the 11 roll when i have a 10.. soooo this would need to be 100% or i wont get any use from this change i think :( i can count on 1 hand how often i use snakeeye for something different then getting 10>11

fold is nice, cause i allways used
5/5 Snake Eyes
1/5 fold
3/5 Winning Streak
1/5 Loaded Deck
as merits and now getting low recast for free :3

maybe i switch to 3/5 Snake eyes 5/5 Winning streak, depends how strong snakeeye will be

Anywhere above 8 I will use Snake Eye. Mostly because I'm gambling on AF2+2 augmented pants to kick in. It happens quite a bit.

I try to always start my party w/ 2x 11s. Mid-fight I won't bust a roll because any roll > no roll. But prior to the start -- especially for VW fights -- I do more or less whatever I have to in order to hit XIs.

Additional question: have these updates gone live in-game already? I missed where they said when this is taking effect.

No, these will be implemented on the test server, and then added in the next version update.

Not that I'm for making this game any easier at this point, but these changes are about as welcome as the Snake Eye and Fold merits were when they were first released... if not more exciting! lol
