It's highly likely that a lot of stuff will break after this update. They're probably going to be changing both the packets and memory.

Do we have a date for the update yet?

Try installing directx8 which is included in the game discs and the official download package.

I have the same issue, I had read somewhere that it's something to do with Windower overriding the screen resolution settings in the FFXI config file.

You should be able to fix it by resetting the resolution settings in config manually, but I don't know if Windower will override them again or not. I haven't bothered to try it out.

As a follow-up to the post from yesterday, we will also be making adjustments to beetle familiars in the August version update.

The effect of Hi-Freq Field used by the following pets will be changed.

Hurler Percival / Panzer Galahad / Beetle Familiar

Effect

  • Reduced evasion effect value will change from -25% to -40.

  • Accuracy will be increased.

If we were to add an additional tier to Migawari, it will grant players immunity to damage for longer periods of time which would directly affect game balance. Due to this, we have no plans to add additional tiers of Migawari.

We’re currently looking into making Accession work with Haste, so please wait a bit longer.

However, we have no plans to add additional AoE haste spells for players as it would reduce the effectiveness of Garuda's utility.

We are planning to make the Ternion dagger usable by dancers.

We'll make a follow-up if we hear more information about the other requests in this thread.

This was posted as a question to why Cor wasn't given a 119 dagger from Unity and they respond by saying they're adding DNC to one, so not at all useful to Cor in any way lol

Currently the testing team is in the midst of verifying this while they improve the environment; however, they cannot determine for sure that FFXI will operate properly. At the moment our official answer is that we do not recommend using Windows 10 for FFXI.

Thanks for your continued feedback and patience on this subject.

In regards to the various Notorious Monster trigger items, we’re considering a change that would make it possible to deliver these items between characters on the same account. It’s possible that this will be difficult to implement for all items at the same time, so we’re thinking of gradually adding this feature to each trigger item.

As I mentioned in my previous post, the development team has been looking into adjustments for coalitions, and they are planning to make the following adjustments in the next version update.

  • It will become harder for coalitions to rank down.


  • It will become easier for coalitions to rank up.


  • Modifications will be made to the rewards associated with coalitions.

After these adjustments, we'll observe the outcome and plan further adjustments for November's version update if they are necessary.

These adjustments have been planned with the long term in mind, so please be patient while we finalize everything.

That's correct; it also applies to Temper II as well. (that the effects scales with the enhancing magic skill of caster)

We’re looking into allowing players to have all three Chebukki siblings. As for them using Meteor in combat, the development team will try their best to deliver upon this request; however, there are several technical hurdles that need to be investigated first.

Hello, everyone!

Previously I mentioned that we were looking into a system that would allow you to earn items by collecting key items, and the development team has made some headway creating this, so I would like to share what’s on the horizon.

Based on feedback, we're looking into a system where you can select from two possible options after collecting five key items and talking to an NPC.
(*When exchanging for an item, the key item will be lost.)

  • Option 1
    You can exchange key items for a specific material item or non-Tartarus equipment item of your choice.

  • Option 2
    You can exchange key items to randomly be rewarded with a material item or equipment item, which includes Tartarus equipment.
    (*The rate of obtaining Tartarus equipment is low.)

As a couple of people have already mentioned in this thread, this means you will be able to view all cutscenes from Chains of Promathia without clearing the story.
