Job adjustments:

• They're only adjusting numbers and they hinted at WAR and DRG at the moment. There will be no nerfs in the upcoming patch.

Teased a little bit on Diamond Weapon

• They mentioned this is "capturing" Diamond Weapon, not "destroying" it, so ((/think))

• They finally put arrows into the hitboxes! 

Ishgardian Restoration stuff, seems self-explanatory.

They're adding new mounts

• They're not going to be 1-2 mil range.
• The final draggo hybrid (the ones you get from primal EX) is being added

Some teaser for the new 24 man raid!

Here's the first enemy!

Our starting point for the new raid o:

Some gears from the new raid! DEVOLA #CONFIRMED. As well, they teased Kaine's Theme song for this new raid, so guess we'll see!

Bozja news - coming in Patch 5.55 (the slides are pretty self-explanatory).

Yoshi-P said this is where they should be introducing a new Ultimate, but since majority of the team is working on 6.0, the new Ultimate will have to wait. However, they did give us some teaser....so what could THIS possibly be!?

New housing stuff.

New glam - "retro" style!

And some better snapshots of the new housing stuff.

They did talk about the Fan Fest, but I'll put that into another post!
