Game Director Letter – February 2014 Discussion

I can clarify on that a bit.
Weapon and Dragon Tear drops from the MC have been moved to the Emperor as new drops (you'll still get the same number of these guaranteed per run).
Rings from the MC have been moved to the Zodiac as new drops (you'll still get the same number of these guaranteed per run).
The chance at the extra weapon from the MC has been moved to the Zodiac as a new drop (you have the same probability as before of receiving an extra weapon drop per run).
A larger number of Phials of Heavenly Knowledge will drop in total from the Memory cloud bosses.

So it looks like farming MC is pointless now?? All the loot gets moved to Zodiac/Emp?

MC (Kiera/LuZhi) just gives your Phials? or what am I missing?

And when are the MC changes hitting live servers?

My question is what has happen to phase three??? phase 1 and 2 are done!
Personally I thought ONE of the main reason of moving ALL aoc servers to USA was to implement phase three?

Given that that is the hardest part to do, with limited number of developers even capable of coding it up, it will take a very long time. I wouldn't think it sooner than late 2015, or 2016 sometime.

and an urn I guess

Suggest that you put someone on MC to make it worth doing, such as a mount...Quillin?

so right now the only thing that MC is going to drop is a vial and maybe relics? So its an upgraded Strom fight?

Thank you!! Really appreciated change!

It is worth doing to get to the Entity and get that loot. Also for more AA advancement on your alts.

or are dragon tears still only going to drop for MC and entity?

Re-read cirith's post.

Edit: you edited your post

We need wait for new raid... wait for new dungeon... wait for new mini-game... wait for new craft... wait for new gear... wait until all people leave for AA or TESO?
