Tu as la news qui parle de l'augmentation du storage stp ? (_ _)

Citation :

Improving low to mid-level content… 160 inventory?! We will ever see the day?!

In Japan, you mentioned improvements in Storage. Can we expect a future of 160 or 240 Storage spaces?

Tanaka: Multiples of 80. With the limits of PS2 memory, and the need for the entire storage list to be in memory at once, we are stuck at the initially planned limit, 80 slots. We think there could be a kind of switch and you could replace slots in the list from outside, but how it would work or be implemented is still in the planning stages.

I think what users really hope for is more on-hand inventory. Something like, “Today I’m going White Mage, so I’ll take my WHM bag with me.”

Tanaka: It’s still early in the planning stages, but we think that’s the way we’ll have to do it. The inventory limit for users is at 70 now, so there’s still 10 spaces free. We still have room for improvement.

So, first you’ll expand to 80, and then you’ll experiment with replacement systems?

Tanaka: Yes, that’s right. We making preparations now to do so. I can’t even consider now what shape it will take in the end, however. I had thought more people would want to raise a second character. I didn’t think so many would have second, third, and more and more jobs all on the same character. The number of people with 10+ jobs is constantly growing, so we need to respond to that.

Supersize Your Gobbiebag With All-New Quests! (03/02/2009)



What adventurer hasn't long wished for a roomier receptacle to store the scores of sublime spoils snagged in the course of their abounding adventures across Vana'diel? Take heart, you Greedaloxes—your wait is over! Don't think you'll be able to procure this prodigious pouch free of charge, though, as the Goblin Bluffnix has devised a devious new assignment to test your mettle. What does the tightfisted taskmaster want from you this time? You'll just have to see for yourself in the upcoming version update!

Let There Be More Fields of Valor and Treasure Caskets! (03/06/2009)

An Ever-expanding Sphere of Enjoyment!

The above-mentioned systems will be made available in the Rise of the Zilart areas listed below:
Cape Teriggan / Eastern Altepa Desert / The Sanctuary of Zi'Tah / Ro'Maeve / Yuhtunga Jungle / Yhoator Jungle / Western Altepa Desert / Valley of Sorrows / Ru'Aun Gardens



Treasure Caskets appearing for the first time in these areas will yield an array of rewards unique to their respective locales.


Enhanced Access to Fields of Valor!

In addition to the above Rise of the Zilart locations, the following original areas are also scheduled to host a Field Manual:
East Ronfaure / La Theine Plateau / Batallia Downs / South Gustaberg / Konschtat Highlands / Rolanberry Fields / East Sarutabaruta / Tahrongi Canyon / Sauromugue Champaign / Behemoth's Dominion

In light of the expansion of playable areas for Fields of Valor, a number of preexisting training regimes will be relocated for the sake of convenience. Currently, there are regimes for which the objectives are found in a different area from where the issuing Field Manual is situated. The next version update will eliminate hassles such as having to make a long trek to La Theine after receiving regime objectives in West Ronfaure.

As the icing on this veritable cake of convenience, each Fields of Valor area is scheduled to host multiple Field Manuals, so you can spend less of your precious adventuring time in commute, and more on completing your objectives and reaping the rich rewards.



NMs Set to Join the Fray!

Fields of Valor was created so that all players could have lighthearted yet fruitful adventuring available at their fingertips. Following in the footsteps of this ideal, the April version update will usher in challenging new objectives—elite training regimes—that will have hearts pumping in the ears of even the most seasoned adventurers.

Accessing these elite training regimes requires key items which can be obtained in exchange for tabs, and your choice of gil, beastmen's seals, or a piece of equipment. Rewards granted upon completion of an objective will vary depending on the combination of the above. For example, adventurers who trade gil will be handsomely rewarded in kind, while beastmen's seals will garner you an amount of experience points corresponding to the quantity traded. Those who dare to relinquish equipment, on the other hand, can expect delightful rewards the likes of which have never been seen before on Vana'diel!
As an added bonus, no experience penalties will be imposed even if your best effort at fulfilling an objective results in a humiliating defeat at the hands of your quarry. So go on, get out there and prove your worth and valor!

*Due to the grueling nature of these elite training regimes, no more than one can be undertaken per day (Earth time).

Fun and accessible content for everyone is the common objective which drives all of us here on the development and administration teams. These additions and adjustments to Fields of Valor and Treasure Caskets are but another part of our ongoing commitment to this mission.

Des Treasures Casket à Sky ? Fun !
Du FoV à Sky ? WTF ?! Encore plus d'xp en allant farm ?!?

c'est quoi ce system de fields of valor? y'a des gens qui ont essayer ?

Tu connais pas ?
Super pratique pour l'xp low level...

En gros, tu signe un "contrat".
Genre à Valkurm, on te demande de tuer :
- 5 Damselfly
- 3 Snipper

Et en échange, tu gagne un bonus d'xp, de gils et de points, les "tabs".
Pour l'exemple au dessus, tu gagne 540xp, 540gils et 54 tabs.
Avec les points, tu peux acheter des items temporaires ou des status effect (sérieux, en Sch14 aux dunes, avoir un refresh 1/tick de 60mn, c'est über).


Tu peux y souscrire une fois par jour IG, et franchement, pour l'xp solo/low lvl c'est très utile...
1kxp de bonus en moins d'une heure aux dunes, c'est con, mais ça représente 33% d'un lvl.
Ou pour du lvl1>10 c'est juste priceless.

Par contre, bien entendu, ça marche que si tu gagnes de l'xp sur les mobs concernés.
Plus d'infos sur le wiki :
http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Fields_of_Valor

En gros c'est une systeme à la WoW, "faut que tu butte tant et tant de mobs pour ta reward en xp et money".

Bon, vais pas médire, c'est pratique, mais une fois qu'on commence à le faire aux iceland vaut mieux pt, les objectifs sont carrementpas pratiques. Genre butter des squellettes à xarca c'est rigolo mais pas long entre leur resistances physiques, ice spikes et les blood agro.

C'est cool, on va avoir des xp pt pour camper despot contre nous aussi. Je suis pas sûr d'aimer cette mise à jour.

Scintillant Ingot pour Gobbie Bag ça m'intéresse, j'en ai 45 dans mon mog locker.

bah jai fait la plupart de mon mnk 40-54 pdt ma pause dejeuner en FoV

bah pire: buter des eyes au lvl 50 ou 55.....

ouai ca pas cool, mais pour melee job je pense Aht urgahn merit va rester plus rentable nivo xp/h (tu aura max 3k bonus par jour vanadiel+ perdre chain a chaque fois que tu doit reprendre le traning)

tu verra + de BLM solo/duo et plus de pop item en bazar

Comment rajouter un bouqin utilisable une fois apr jour va ramener des exp PT a sky ? je ne comprend pas. (j'ai jamais test field of valor)

Bein, farmer des despots tout en faisant de l'xp risque d'amener quelques duo/trio.

Les plans money + xp sont toujours tres appreciés. Ce qui m'ennuie le plus c'est que despot risque de poper mais ne pas etre tué et depop, car ça va attirer des gens pas habitués a low man et ils vont wipe. Donc au final les despots pop seront plus rare et plus cher.

New Notorious Monsters to Take Campaign by Storm! (03/09/2009)

In the upcoming April version update, fearsome Notorious Monsters will take to the field in areas of past Vana'diel currently under the control of the Allied Forces.

With each passing version update, the Campaign Battles and Campaign Ops systems continue to grow in size and scope. Next month will see the introduction of fearsome new Notorious Monsters to past Vana'diel to further intensify that savage conflict known as the Crystal War.

In order to engage in battle with one of these new NMs, the Allied Forces must currently hold sway over the area in which the creature appears. In addition, you must also be in possession of the required key item which is obtainable from specific NPCs in each nation. With these two prerequisites fulfilled, simply examine the designated target point located in each area. This will trigger the NM's appearance.



Key Items

- The trigger key item can be acquired in exchange for Allied Notes. While neither your rank nor allegiance will influence your eligibility for obtainment, no more than one can be acquired per Earth day.
- All players wishing to engage in the battle must be in possession of the key item.
- It is required that the key item is one that has been issued from the nation currently in control of the area. For example, a key item issued from San d'Oria is needed to participate in an NM battle in a Ronfaure (S) under Kingdom control.



Battle Conditions

- The allotted battle time is 30 minutes.
- No experience penalties will be imposed for being rendered unconscious.
- While each NM is intended to provide a suitable challenge for a six-member party, it will be possible for an 18-member alliance to participate, similarly to the ENM quest.
- NMs will take to the field in the company of a squad of underlings.
- Defeating these NMs will yield not only experience points, but also additional rewards the nature of which will vary depending on the strategy that was employed during battle.



We fervently hope that your efforts to aid the Allied Forces in regaining dominance over the land are met with every success, for yet another exhilarating challenge awaits you on the horizon!
