	'''Enmity and Defense Adjustments'''		'''Enmity and Defense Adjustments'''

	On February 18th, well before the update, ~~[https://www.bluegartr.com/threads/112776-Dev-Tracker-Findings-Posts-(NO-DISCUSSION)?p=5604533&viewfull=1#post5604533~~ A developer post was made on the official forums] that discussed Enmity and how it is calculated. At this point in time, some said it was the most information ever disclosed to players from the developers on such a specific scale about game mechanics. This post closely resembled testing and information [https://kanican.livejournal.com/32088.html released by a player named Kaeko]. This player’s findings were widely used at the time when discussing Enmity. It was neat to see their findings amost exactly matching information disclosed by the developers.

	The Defense adjustment was needed at this point to make tanking more relevant. Players were too used to the safety net that Atmas provided and lack of any required MP management. Old "hate tools" were balanced around level 50 game play values. With such powerful new equipment on the horizon, jobs could generate so much more hate via damage that the old tools became practically obsolete. Defense mattered now after this change. Before, it was hard to tell a difference with damage taken if defense was stacked.		The Defense adjustment was needed at this point to make tanking more relevant.

	From April until November, most jobs did not use their ultimate weapons. It is not clear why the [[Trial of the Magians]] system was abandoned in favor of [[Oboro]]. Players enjoyed the tasks and it created great social interactions. Why couldn’t we continue to have 5-level incremental upgrades via Magians? [[Pluton]]s/[[Riftborn Boulder]]s/[[Beitetsu]]s should have been implemented right away, and Delve should not have come out only a month after Seekers was introduced. There should have been more of a gradual introduction of higher Item Level gear. Making players wait seven months to upgrade their Ultimate Weapons was unacceptable. Many players were upset by the entire Delve equipment situation and decided to quit around this time, and anxiously awaited FFXIV:ARR’s release in August. The decision to add such powerful equipment in this way was regarded by many to be one of the worst choices that the developers have ever made.

	It was around this time that the “elitism” mindset of players who posted on BG forums changed. Suddenly, everybody was on the same playing field after Delve equipment became the goal. Everyone had access to the same equipment for the next six months. FFXIAH.com took over as the primary discussion location for FFXI. ~~BG-~~Wiki would rise up and become the new to-go place for endgame information.
