I'm making and eating a light dinner tonight, unwinding a short while with some FFXI mindless grind, and then trying to get a couple hours of power nap in before the XIV servers come up.

Full patch notes out.
Hmm I was hoping Unreal would be a bit more high end than that. Oh well, hopefully the next one will be higher. Something between Extreme and high Savage, or high Savage and Ultimate would be great.

I had heard about that and almost let out a sigh of relief. Then I remembered when Auric and I were in a BLU party doing Extreme, and I felt like the only person in there who remembered every mechanic. That was a brutal, painful hour of my life I will never get back.

Naturally, I will need an Unreal Static with people who can figure out what to do and do it. <_<

It will show them as weak, but merit points gained aren't reduced iirc.

Yeah, I found the answer seconds before you made this reply. Thanks though.

You gain both at the same time, but only from "hard" enemies, and in very small quantities. You absolutely wanna unlock it as fast as possible. Some classes REALLY want like 50-100JP. Like, beastmaster gets -5 ready recast timer on one of their early-ish nodes, and the difference between a pet nuke every 15s and 10s is crazy.

Merit points are gained VERY easily as you farm for JP, to the point where you can cap out in like 15-30m iirc. Won't be too hard to get everything you want pretty quickly.

I'm dreading the Cap/Job grind, which is why I'm holding off until I find the job I like most... in a game I'm still not overly invested in. Like I may do a thing or two for War just to make matters easier than they already are, but I suspect i117 is already OP as all get-out compared to stories pre-Adoulin. Completing those stories takes priority for me, and I understand doing so helps boost the Capacity rate, as do certain fights (akin to XIV's FATEs) in the Adoulin zones.

I should be able to finish RoV as well, which should be nice. It amuses me that it basically is just a barely coherent story that pokes and prods you to work on the other stories while mostly just putting emphasis on the many waifus of the game. The bonuses are good to have, on the other hand.
