Well some of you may know me or not but I stopped playing around a year ago I believe. The last thing I remember was they added the 2nd set of job point abilities.

I heard that they made it easier to make a mythic so that has gotten me a bit curious. I'm wondering what other major changes that y'all enjoy from the last year.

Think I'll be up and running in a couple days so hopefully I'll see a lot of familiar faces.

Being able to use trusts in high-tier battles makes it a lot less stressful to solo or low man certain ones.

Well, I don't think you should miss much since it's -50% evasion at the start. Unless your gear is horrible, you should be able to have enough accuracy.

i'd say the biggest thing you've missed out on is probably some fairly useful trust npcs if you've been gone for around a year, most everything else should be fairly accessible.

if you have gil to invest you should be able to make some up to date gear easily with a few yorica II runs for gear to augment.

also not sure exactly when incursion was implemented, but if you weren't around for that then i'd advise getting an aptitude mantle +1 if you don't have ppl willing to help you farm the cp cape from incursion.

other than that, once you have some up to date gear i'd focus on getting some vagary wins to access the empy armor upgrades. think that should about cover it, good luck!

In the next upcoming update, they will allow trusts to be used in delve and incursion, which could help you farm some of the low tier delve nms for gear/accessories and farm coffers for capacity capes. However I think the restriction is still in place to have a minimum of three real life people enter.

Maybe because in theory a trust is a kind of bot?

This went completely over my head, too, at first, but I think it's supposed to be a joke about the thf job ability feint. Welcome back to the game.
