Square Enix will release the latest update for 'Final Fantasy XIV', titled 'The Far Edge of Fate', later today. They have summarized the most important information and published the complete changelog in advance.
Specifically, one can expect the following changes, among others:
- Expanded Story: No sooner is Minfilia reunited with the Warrior of Light and his companions than she must depart again. But there is also joyful news for the Seventh Dawn: Yda and Papalymo have returned, and Alisaie and Krile have now become official members of the League.
- New dungeon “Baelsar Wall”: Along the border between the Blackwood and Gyr Abania stands a mighty fortress, built by Gaius van Baelsar to protect the Empire from the “Wild Eorzea and their idols”.
- New dungeon "Sohm Al" (Hard): Nidhogg has fallen, the thousand-year Dragon War is over. Nidhogg's horde has left their leader's nest, Mount Sohm Al. The absence of the guardians of the sacred dragon shrine is taking its toll. All sorts of strange creatures, drawn by the vast crystal masses within the mountain, have taken up residence and are disturbing the peace of the departed dragons.
- New Trial “Twilight of the Gods – Zurvan”: Zurvan is one of the three icons of the War Triad. Worshipped by a centaur-like race on the southern continent of Meracydia, he embodies eternal victory, but was imprisoned by the Allagans over five thousand years ago. Now, however, the fierce deity is worshipped by possessed individuals who are preparing for his return.
- New content "Egi Projection": Summoners can now use the new text command /egiprojection to transform their Egi into a new form. Starting with Patch 3.5, Egi can be transformed into Ruby, Emerald, and Topaz Carbuncles. More transformation options are planned for future patches.
- New Group Finder: The revamped group finder now allows you to recruit players from different worlds within the same data center for your group. You can also conduct private group searches to play in a group with specific players (across all worlds within the same data center) who all share the same password.
- Expeditions to the Diadem: Aviation is booming, and the Abalathian Cloud Sea is experiencing a veritable invasion of explorers and discoverers. Recently, an archipelago hidden by dense clouds was discovered: the Diadem. A fitting name, for with its enormous wind crystal massif at its center, it truly resembles a ring of floating gemstones framing the crown jewel at its core.
However, the appearance of ancient relics suddenly disrupted the etheric balance, to which the region's powerful monsters are highly sensitive. House Haillenarte promises generous rewards for brave players who explore these dangerous areas. - Anima Weapons: The reactivation of the damaged refinement system finally enables the final refinement of Anima Weapons. Players must create a synthetic soul to imbue the Anima Weapon with life.
- Enhanced PvP: Duels have been expanded to allow for even more exciting one-on-one battles. When scheduling a duel, the item levels of the opponents can be adjusted. Additionally, all reactivation timers are reset at the start of the battle, so all commands are immediately ready for use. Resistances are also reset.
- Cartenauer Front: A new feature allows participation in the Cartenauer Front regardless of which State Company players belong to.
- Zhloe Aliapoh Quests: New, special quests are available for craftspeople and collectors to gain the trust of Zhloe Aliapoh, who rewards her friends with generous gifts.
