Ladies and gentlemen, dear readers, let me regale you with news of the realm of Final Fantasy XIV. Verily, the land hath been parched in recent days, as players hath sought solace in the pursuit of leveling alt jobs and crafting intricate portraits. Yet, lo and behold, a new dawn approaches with the advent of patch 7.2. Following a day of maintenance on the 24th, this wondrous patch shall grace us with its presence on the morrow of March 25.
For the stalwart adventurers among us, fear not, for the Savage version of the Arcadion: Cruiserweight Division shall be unveiled seven days hence. Prepare thy gear, for a mighty challenge awaits. Naoki Yoshida and Toshi Murouchi have unveiled a glimpse of the first battle in this new tier, featuring none other than a disco-dancing male Viera named “Dancing Green” as the boss. A sight to behold, indeed, with Murouchi himself lamenting the absurdity of facing such a foe with solemn visages. Yet, in the realm of FFXIV, such encounters are not unfamiliar.
Intriguingly, it appears that the forthcoming battle may entail a rhythm game element, with hints of a perfection bonus and music akin to a Dance Dance Revolution track. A unique twist, to be sure, offering a fresh challenge for adventurers to conquer.
Beyond the hallowed halls of combat, other realms of content shall be unveiled in the realm of Eorzea. PvP updates, the enigmatic Cosmic Exploration, and the new Field Exploration series known as Occult Crescent shall beckon to players seeking new horizons.
Cosmic Exploration, a domain for crafters and gatherers of level 10 and above, promises a journey through the stars and the establishment of bases on distant planets. With missions to complete, credits to earn, and bases to expand, this new frontier offers a myriad of opportunities for growth and discovery.
Moreover, the Field Exploration series shall weave its tale in Occult Crescent, awaiting those who have braved the trials of Dawntrail and reached level 100 in a Disciple of War or Magic. A realm divided into instances for up to 72 players, where experience points wane with each incapacitation, save for the gracious aid of fellow adventurers. The introduction of Phantom Jobs shall offer a new path of progression, unlocking skills and powers as one delves deeper into the mysteries of Occult Crescent.
As the shadows of challenge loom, so too shall the light of opportunity shine. Critical Encounters make their return, promising fierce battles and the pursuit of the elusive Phantom Weapon. Alongside these trials, enhancements to movement abilities in the form of mount summoning while in motion and an extended sprint state shall grant adventurers newfound freedom in their travels.
