Adjustments to Assault(06/28/2006)


In the next version update, we will be adding all new Assault missions that continue in the spirit of providing casual gameplay for busy players. We also plan to adjust the number of Assault Points received for existing missions.

New Assault Missions

In conjunction with the release of the two new mercenary ranks, we will be introducing additional Assault missions. Five new missions will be available at the rank of Lance Corporal, and another five missions at the rank of Corporal.
A wider range of options and the necessity for unique strategies will accompany these new missions, so don't let your mercenary skills grow rusty!

Adjustments to Existing Missions

The development team designed the Assault missions to provide a large number of options for parties of various sizes and job compositions.
However, with the difference in the number of Assault Points earned depending on party size, players began leaning towards attempting certain missions with very specific jobs.
With the aim of creating an even more flexible and enjoyable system, the following adjustments will be made in the upcoming version update:

- Assault Point Adjustment 1
When participating in an Assault mission with 4 or more people, the penalty on the number of Assault Points earned per person will be decreased.

- Assault Point Adjustment 2
The number of Assault Points earned for each Assault mission will be adjusted to better reflect the level of difficulty.

Nice, sounds like they're going to nerf points on the assaults a couple Melee's + Healer can get through, and buff the ones that BLM's typically duo. You gotta give SE credit for one thing, they're consistent if nothing else.

Were are you getting this from???

Thats not anything like what they said.

What they said is that larger groups of people wont be penilized as much point-wise. In other words......the points are going to no longer be split between all players so you can go with a larger group and still get good IS.

Also........the harder missions's will give more points now. This is a very nice update indeed.
