Post subject:  Possible December Updates

I thought I'd go through the big list of November/December updates from the Lodestone post a few weeks back and remove all the things that they already patched in November. Figured it would give us an early look at what we'd be getting in the mid-December patch.

Looks rather like slim pickings, other than the addition of NMs and retainer search.
