As a returning player I was pretty surprised with the increasing exp bonus on the exp rings, unless I misread the patch notes.

So as Rudra's got it's nerf, this has been added in the update:
Quote:
The increased potency based on the number of skillchains has been doubled.
Also massive lol at Ardor being delayed since that was the reason they put forward for nerfing Rudra's.

So anyway, Rudra's nerfed and SAM gets a pretty substantial boost.

Colour me surprised.

Reread.

Sam legs are interesting.

I wonder if that haste is the same of hands, and if they stacks or not with hands. If not stacking, i guess artifact hands are dead.

I find it disappointing that the NIN empy reforged feet 109/119 enhancement for "Utsusemi" stays the same as the Iga Kyahan +2. Only +1 shadow

but DAMN thf reforged empy 109 feet gets TH +2 and 119 gets TH +3!!!!

Happened to me 3 times so I just stopped using them altogether. Could be a windower issue.

THF needs +5 gear to cap TH so +2 was really all that was needed, means THF caps TH in 2 pieces instead of 3.

Warning to those with capped sparks! I just purchased a single seal and it brought sparks from Capped to 0, despite only purchasing a 15,000 spark item.

I'm not sure exactly what caused this, but it seems to be working fine after the fact (did a couple communique I had in quest log and got 600 accolades, then bought a warp scroll for 10 points to test and was left with 590). Just a heads up, if you are capped, make sure you spend something so the bug can work itself out if you are effected sooner than later, I just don't want to see people banking on them and then suddenly they aren't there when they try to cash out for an empy upgrade or something.

Additional Details:
When I logged in after the update I had capped sparks and capped unity accolades. I assumed this was due to the "retroactively applying first time bonus rewards" or whatnot, because I don't recall capping sparks before logging out prior to update (though I was in a very long CP party, so it's possible I racked up points and didn't notice).

Not a huge deal since sparks just kind of accumulate as you go and they'll be back in no time, but I know that's not the case for everyone (especially newcomers!) so I wanted to give people here a heads up to be careful when holding off on purchasing things if you are at sparks cap right now, it may poof!

Edit: Accolades worked fine, and did not present the same issue.
