    I swear I was using @go lhz for years and it worked fine, but then this last playthrough I came back and it didn't work any more.  And now there's patch notes saying its been added?  AM I BEING GASLIT?

    I don't get the point of the Shining Gin Potion. Why doesn't it give the effect of all the gin instead of only these? And buying it doesn't even save you a single endeavor?
    Am I missing something here?

    It was designed to cut down on inventory usage, that is all. If you do not care about saving inventory space then you don't need to purchase the shining potion.

     

    As per this suggestion:

    Thanks for answering. After reading that topic I can see why some people would want to have them as a single consumable and even why Red Booster and Maniacal would not be desirable to everyone. May even start buying it myself. But then can I just ask why wasn't Gin Sacred Draught included to it?

    Thank you for such a nice patch and the implementation of merged gin potions. It was nicely done. :delphiheart:

    If you think of it, you can save a lil bit using the shining gin for these 4 potions + SDS if u split it in 30m version. They are just the same when you purchase individually because you get 3 SDS here that costs 1 Token

     

    3 SDS 60m = 3 Tokens
    Other 4 Potions = 4 Tokens
    Splitting them in 30m = 150k zeny

     

    6 SDS 30m = 3 Token
    Other 4 potions = 4 Tokens
    Splitting each gin potion for 30m = 150k (3 potions ea) x 4 = 600k zeny

     

    I do question as well why Gin Sacred Draught wasn't included but I think 5 items merged in one is already a good number for saving inventory slots.

    And happy new year BTW.

     :delphiheart:

     

    Happy new year to you too! We're happy to finally have gotten around to updating those albums.

     

    As per questions regarding the potion, after debating it within the staff these 5 that we included was the combination we thought would be most universally desirable.
    We figured it wouldn't be perfect in every single case, but that it'd still be an improvement for the average person.

    Ok, Nice update, thank you for your effort... but where are the feedback you promised last year about keeping the community updated about what's coming up to the server? At least the last 2 updates were kind of a surprise weren't they?

     

    Haven't heard about 4th jobs for so long, nore have seen any major update on the test server about them... so either I think if they're coming up soon you won't add them with the rebalance or they're still in a far far away reality... so... what's up? Keep us informed... the whole server was biting their nails waiting for 4th jobs to come like 17.1 last year and we got nothing!! Nova is falling behind all the big servers and we're losing att...

    In the case of Juperos Expedition, it was intended for it to be a surprise, but aside from that update, I'd argue there wasn't anything noteworthy enough to fill an announcement post.
     

    I definitely plan on making more 'What we're working on'-type posts, but those do require at least a base to shape it into a proper teaser instead of just listing names of projects that are not properly realized or are too early into production and can end up scrapped, as such a list would mean little to players. In parallel, we also have a lot of small scope projects which get realized quicker than expected, such as the OCA/MCA update. I'll certainly be doing more of those posts, as soon as there is enough information to do so, although I personally wouldn't be opposed to do a something similar to a bimonthly update if that is liked enough, even if some months would just list "yeah, we're still working on last month's stuff".
     

    To follow up on the above, we had already planned and should have an update post for Q1 of 2022 in the near future.

     

    Edit: Funnily enough, I had made a dummy post for before Christmas, but we decided to skip it due to the reasons I mentioned above.
