FFXIV Online

Lemmy is still a growing platform, and doesn't have the same number of people posting as a platform like Reddit. So let's try and change that! Today is weekly reset day, so post below about something you've managed to accomplish during the last week!

The latest iteration of The Rising is starting next week on August 27th! Get yourself a cute Krile minion and some table lamps while you fulfil whatever task the Wandering Minstrel has for you this year!

And say hi to Yoshi-P and the dev team when you see them, okay?

As someone who never played during an expansion launch, how hard are the latest Savage raids? I’ve been afraid to try them, I don’t have an active FC so I’d be queuing and I don’t want to be a burden. I can run the normal raids and not die or even get hit by the mechanics the whole run, but not sure how big of a jump up in difficulty they are mechanics wise.

So nearly 2 months into Dawntrail's launch, the probationary data centers that were set up to help balance traffic in the post launch surge are being closed.

Now that we're moving into a more normal post launch environment, how have you found the launch? If you played during Endwalker, did you experience similar queue times this time around or did you have a much smoother login experience?

I know I haven't seen anywhere near as many complaints about login problems this time around, although I'm also on the Materia data center, so we don't exactly have a large population to begin with!

Share your thoughts! Did SE learn from Endwalker and fix the problems with their login servers this time around do you think?

Some of the notable things in the patch:

• Savage begins for the first Dawntrail raid tier
• New master recipes for crafters
• New craftable gear for DoW/DoM
• Treasure portals have been added
• Tomestones of Heliometry have been added with a weekly cap of 450

This thread will have spoilers on the first raid tier that released with patch 7.01 so don't click into the thread if you haven't done it yet or want to avoid spoilers on the new fights.

The main change in 7.01 is the release of the first raid tier (not the Savage, that'll be in two weeks with 7.05), and also a bunch of potency tweaks, so see if your jobs are impacted.

Farming now PvP, it is obvious how the casual mode absolutely needs matchmaking with a hidden skill rating. The outcome of the match is decided by specific people in the team and there are idlers, afk'ers and other not so great players which could be filtered out had it matchmaking.

Did people think we'd go to a whole new continent and not have any worldbuilding? Or did they want another high-stakes world ending threat for a high-adrenaline story?

The Scions & Sinners album is now available on streaming services! There's a good chance your favourite service has it available, but Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube all have it. The full list is available here.

Dawntrail is now live for everyone! We hope you're enjoying your time in Tural ❤️

Surprising no one, the final day of countdown illustrations is the newest melee class added in Dawntrail, the Viper! They totally got this piece commissioned and are now negotiating to slay some local vidraal to try and pay for it, so if you have some work, please, let them know 🙏🏻

Rounding up the last of our pre Dawntrail jobs, it's the tank with the knife you can still bring to a gunfight, Gunbreaker! Also known as "three DPS in a trenchcoat" the Gunbreaker gives everyone the chance to act out their favourite scenes from Final Fantasy VIII and gives you plenty of buttons to keep you busy while you take the hits for the rest of the party.

Due to a huge increase in demand for today's illustration the White Mage from the massive uptake of new hires into the Viper Blade Sharpening industry that the Deputy Directory of Turalism has promised includes White Mage Insurance, it is now required that anyone coming across from Eorzea to Tural does so as a White Mage. Thank you for your understanding.
