What the point of doing those newish vagary version? Unlock empy upgrade/blu spell?

Yup

Quote:
*These battlefields will not grant experience points, capacity points, or treasure.
*These battlefields will not count toward the Vagary objective for Records of Eminence.

Pretty stupid... would've been easier to just remove the requirement but that'd be too smart.
But then what about Perf/plouton? iirc there's no moves to learn from them.... hmmm wait it does specifically say grants you title... bet this is for af3+1 in prep for content that lets you +2/+3 it

Or you could just read the patch preview and you would know exactly :P

"First up is Vagary—here we’ll be adding a new battlefield where you can take on a boss battle of your choice. This should serve to address a popular request: making it easier to unlock the upgrade process for Empyrean armor. Mind you, you won’t receive any loot if you take this option, but we hope it’ll be a help to those of you who are looking to upgrade your gear."

The underlined words is my fix for their misleading translation.

Green glow is something I'd actually tolerate. Happy for that at least.

So you know those "Decanter: X" items they added way back in 2017? That's what can drop from the new SR.

You only fight one mob, you don't always get anything, but if you do, it's a Decanter that can give you an item.

Initially, you will be able to choose from Ingrid, Darrcuiln, and Arciela.
Defeating all opponents will result in further selectable foes being unlocked.

That's... really bad for congestion. Like... incredibly bad. Ambuscade bad.

Drop rate?

There are going to be so god damn many idiots soloing this, thanks obama. It's a lot more enticing to know you only have to beat one mob than all 3.

I was expecting;

Set 3 mobs, w/ 50% of something from one of the 3. Could've lived with that... but 20% on a single mob with the way instances work, hard pass for a long time till that thins out. 40 minute wait for a 60 second fight with a 20% drop. Yay asura

20 in innercourt, 14 solos, good start. </3

Or you could, oh, I dunno, move to a lower population server until you get what you want and then move back?

On the ol' list of "things that sound like a good idea"

Paying $30 for SR drops is pretty low. 0/10 can't recommend

Really not going to phase me, just feels like an incredibly bad idea. but you know what's a good idea? Complaining about bad ideas.

Haven't had tights for (years) another month nbd.

Can confirm, the droprate isn't good. Also, the decanter's are basically unity coffers.

They *** up and WSD works on every hit of a ws now instead of just the first.

Still "debating" whether its accidental or on purpose.

Here is a list of changed augs: https://www.bg-wiki.com/index.php?title=Augment_List&diff=566417&oldid=564024

Pre update is on the left in yellow, post update is on the right in blue.

Lots have been clarified and no longer abbreviated.
Basically they removed abbreviation, changed the double attack to double damage, the II to 11 on Rostam, and that's it?

I don't see fixes to all the other wrong stuff, like RDM neck augs for instance.
I seem to recall there were other broken/wrong descriptions as well.

Green glow on ergon
Now that's a surprise.
Is the afterglow bonus the same as the Mythic one or unique?

Wait, does this mean that the only boost is the DMG rating during Leaden Salute? (Something that doesn't matter in Leaden calculations)

Fairly sure they are just trying to make it clear that it is the same as DMG+30% Death penalty already gets, since the old text used "Weapon skill damage" which is a stat that other gear already has and works differently(or did) than what they intended the REMA augs to be.
