[dev1265] Unity Concord

  • Alter egos for Unity Concord leaders will be added.
These alter egos are special in that they can only be called forth under certain conditions.

Players are unable to acquire them using the same means as ordinary alter egos, but instead will temporarily gain the ability to call them forth when their personal evaluation in their Unity has reached a certain level.

There is no limit to how often these alter egos may be summoned, but switching Unities or entering a new Unity ranking tabulation period will deactivate them. The alter egos may be called forth again once the player has re-received the appropriate level of evaluation.

The following alter egos may be called forth.
Pieuje (UC) / Ayame (UC) / I. Shield (UC) / Apururu (UC) / Maat (UC) /
Aldo (UC) / Jakoh (UC) / Naja (UC) / Flaviria (UC)
* Players may only call forth an alter ego of their Unity leader.

  • The amount of accolades required to undertake Wanted objectives will be lowered.

 
Content Level	Pre-adjustment		Post-adjustment 
75	             300	→	200 
99	             500	→	400 
119	             2000	→	1500 
122	             2500	→	1800 
125	             3000	→	2100 
128   	             3500	→	2400

A second floor will be added to Mog Houses, enabling players to place more furnishings than ever before. However, there are several differences between the first and second floors as given below.

The second floor is slightly bigger than the first floor.

  • Wall Layout
Furnishing may be affixed to walls in more spaces at a total of four height levels.
  • Remodeling
Room style may be freely switched between San d'Orian, Batsokan, and Windurstian themes.

  • Growing Flowers

[dev1267] New Area: Escha - Zi’Tah

  • Introducing Escha - Zi'Tah
Progressing through the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel scenario will grant players access to a new area known as Escha - Zi'Tah.

Escha - Zi'Tah is home to a wide range of beastly inhabitants, from weaker creatures that roam the periphery to fearsome foes and notorious monsters that inhabit its inner reaches.
Screenshot
Screenshot

  • Escha Silt / Escha Beads
Defeating enemies in Escha - Zi'Tah will reward the victorious with escha silt and escha beads, unique currencies obtainable from the region.
  • Escha Silt
Escha silt is used to purchase special temporary items from NPCs and to traverse portals linking different sections of Escha - Zi'Tah. They can also be used to obtain vorseals, which are detailed below.

  • Vorseals – mystical sigils usable only in Escha - Zi'Tah.
An NPC in Escha - Zi'Tah will offer a bevy of divine prowess in the form of charms known as vorseals in exchange for escha silt. The effects granted differ by vorseal, but they combine in myriad ways to offer multiple blessings at once.

Obtain new types of vorseals by progressing through Rhapsodies of Vana'diel content and defeating the monsters that dwell in Escha - Zi'Tah.

The effects from vorseals will fade away one hour after entering Escha - Zi'Tah, but this timer can be reset by leaving and re-entering the area.

  • Escha Beads
Escha beads are spherical objects that can be wrested from the corpses of notorious monsters residing in Escha - Zi'Tah and can be used to engrave equipment found there with arcane glyptics.

  • Geas Fete: New Battle Content

Extraordinary notorious monsters can be summoned in Escha – Zi'Tah after fulfilling certain conditions.

Calling forth these notorious monsters requires tribulenses, special key items obtainable in exchange for escha silt as well as a grisly trinket specific to each notorious monster. These key items are consumed upon the monster's appearance.

Defeating these monsters will award the victors with precious spoils as well as escha silt and beads.
