I really hope so, that was the longest part of getting my relics :(
I remember more game day change at the beginning of ToAU, but I think around the Gessho fight there are 2-3 JP midnight waits back to back.

Spending merits to be able to hold more merits?
NOW I think I've seen everything.

Looks like time to spam some WoE after next update. I usually get over 10K XP per run, and some of them are quite fun.

It's just like Zelda. Spending rupees to be able to hold more rupees.
Gotta spend merits to make merits.
Mo' merits mo' problems.
Etc.
The limit increases are super nice!

The base stat adjustments mean you can spend your 45 merits to max out three base stats at +15. Capping strength and dex is by far the most popular option right now, but how many players will opt for agility versus those who opt for vitality as their third stat? Agi affects ranged acc/ ranged crit rate, trick attack, eva/parry/guard/shield block and since last year also affects mobs tp gain rate, and is a secondary mod for a few popular ws like exenterator, but sine the attack/def changes were implemented last year vitality and defense make a noticeable difference on damage received, and it also mods several popular weaponskills like upheaval.
I have little doubt the majority will go with agility because of the ranged attack considerations, but I'll be curious to see next years vanadiel census to see what the ratio is versus those who go with vitality. If you don't play ranger or simply prefer the heavy melee classes over their leather counterparts vitality becomes a lot more attractive. You need a lot more evasion than heavy armor classes have access to in order to dodge relevant content, so tanking better is viable for them, and vit becomes even more attractive to a warrior spamming upheaval.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Me thinks the whole HP/MP line is a big typo. Obviously the 1 is supposed to be a 15, but 45 max?

I'm doing MND if it's all the same to you. For the Realmrazer mods. Or maybe for Randgrith, we'll see how the WS buffs go ;)

That would allow us to make out the entire category... Interesting.

- A new type of objective--daily objectives--will be introduced.
The following three daily objectives are scheduled to be implemented in the coming version upate.
- Vanquish Multiple Enemies
- Buff Allies
- Heal for X+ HP
* Daily objectives will reset at Japanese midnight.
* Daily objectives do not count toward the total number of objectives a player has completed.
- Tutorialesque synthesis-related objectives will be introduced, including speaking with guildmasters and synthesizing particular items a requisite number of times.
- Fishing-related objectives will be introduced for reeling in catches in fresh water, in salt water, using various fishing rods, and under other specific conditions.
Additional fishing objectives are planned for subsequent version updates.

Am I the only one who found it a bit startling that fishing got any RoE objectives? (Not that you can accumulate xp very fast from it, I suppose.)
With all these new ones being added though, I really wish they'd increase the number you could have going at one time.
