I just did Bahamut and my weapon got a Gentle rating and when I checked my zodiac glass it went from no sense (0) to faint sense (8) so the Gentle value has not been changed in 3.0 thus all values most likely remain the same. so I guess only all the zodiac rates up to the final stage was changed/made easier... speaking of which here are my zodiac dungeon drop rates:


before 3.0 patch

DD 1/6
HM Hard 1/7
WP 1/12
BF Hard 1/11
AV 1/5

post 3.0 patch

CM Hard 1/1
PS 1/4
AK 1/1
Tam Tara Hard 1/1
Lost City 1/3
Sastasha Hard 1/2
Halatali Hard 1/1
Snowcloak 1/1
Hulbreaker Isle 1/2
Stone Vigil Hard 1/2
Quarn hard 1/1

Patch did say

Quote:
The rate at which weapons gain soul attunement [nexus stage] and soul resonance [zeta stage] has been increased.


Also, going from nothing to faint means it went from 0 to 20%. The 10% state would be indistinct.

Didn't it used to take 10 Garuda HM runs (with bonus) before to finish one mahatma? So at your rate now it should only be 5.

I believe so yes, although as you said with bonus. I remember doing 3 runs and it didn't feel like it went up at all, I usually used Garuda HM runs to finish it. This was after doing a tower/DR Ex/Trials plus a few Garuda to finish just 1.

I think you are right, it's gone up - SE was never going to go mad and allow some one to get a 20+ for a single Garuda HM.

ok Im confused. If I went from 0 sense and 0 points to faint sense in one fight which gave me a "gentle glow" that means I got 8 points in one fight. and Gentle glow according to this page which hasnt been updated:

http://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Zodiac_Zeta_Weapons/Quest

is worth 8 points, so the point value for Gentle is what its always been pre 3.0 right?

Also looks like completing Light or Mahatmas are impossible now. I mean the reddit or ffxivlight.com tracker isnt updated every 2 hours now.. I see 4 and 8 hour gaps lol, and good luck getting a party in PF for it or a DF queue that wont take a million years :(


I also noticed ppl wont even take gil for bahamut anymore. I put one in PF as a joke and hardly got an tells, youd think ppl would want that gil to level those most likely stupidly expensive new crafts lol

Wasn't "gentle" 4 points on the zeta step, not 8?

You needed 10 gentles to complete a mahatma prior to 3.0. Now it appears you need 5 according to the page you linked.

That page hadn't been updated as those values were the same before 3.0 so according to THAT page gentle has always been 8
Ok looks like tey either updated that oage but not the rest (still lusts spring water as 1600 sold when i can confirm its 400 poetics now)

Or that light value changed a second time in the past but not in 3.0 because based on what im reading (what glow does garuda hm give during bonus)? It would mean you need to kill garuda 60 times with bonus when last patch it was 120
