The new trailer for the Revenge of the Horde patch is live! Check out the new dungeons, trials, quests, and gear coming on June 7th. I am personally excited for much of the content coming, and this preview adds to that excitement. What do you think about the upcoming patch?

The Dev team has given us a peek into the final battle of the Dragonsong War at The Final Steps of Faith.

“The great steps which marked a journey’s beginning shall now mark its end as the Warrior of Light enters into a final confrntation with the great wyrm Nidhogg. Steel will clash against fang and furious flames. But when the dust settles, only the victor will decide the fate of man, dragon, and the broken bonds that once united them.”

The Main Story version of this trial will require a full party of 8 people ilvl 205 or greater. The Extreme version of the fight, The Minstrel’s Ballad: Nidhogg’s Rage, will require ilvl 220 to enter, and will also drop weapons for players. Check out the full preview at the Lodestone.

Today’s preview from the Development team centers around the new 24-man Raid, The Weeping City of Mhach.

“Deep in the Yafaem Saltmoor lies the ruins of the fabled city of Mhach – a civilization of the Fifth Astral Era whose prosperity was built upon unparalleled magicks of destruction. It is to this ancient edifice, and its vaults of occult secrets, that you and the Redbills plan your next foray.”

The required iLvl to enter is i205, and players must first complete the quest “To Rule the Skies” to enter. Full details are available at the Lodestone.

The Make it Rain campaign at the Manderville Gold Saucer begins this Friday, May 27th at 1 AM PDT, and runs through June 10th.

The Gold Saucer is seeking volunteers to test out a number of attractions before they’re released to the public. Rewards include a new emote, Gold Saucer tickets, Golden sparklers, and a housing furnishing. It is also rumored that there will be a bonus to earned MGP during the event.

Full details are available on the Lodestone.

The FFXIV staff has released a glimpse into the upcoming Beast Tribe and Side Story quests.

 

What kind of mischief and mayhem can our own Inspector Extraordinaire Hildibrand Manderville find himself in?

What new and amazing enchantments can we dream up for our Anima weapon? 

Why are there so many drunken moogles?

Full details are available at the Lodestone.

Producer Live Letter XXX gave us a lot of good information, including the release date of Patch 3.3. The Revenge of the Horde is scheduled to release on June 7th after a 24 hour maintenance period. With the new patch, we will see the end of the Dragonsong war, new Beast Tribe quests, new dungeons and instances, and a new step in the Anima Weapon quest, plus lots of Quality of Life adjustments. What are you looking forward to most with the new patch?

Camate posted a new blog entry on the FFXIV Developer’s blog today, talking all about the new instanced treasure dungeon “The Aquapolis.”

 

Looks like after completing the normal chest, a portal appears that will whisk the party away to this hidden treasure trove. The screenshots also showed another new hairstyle and a couple of new minions, where they are obtained has yet to be released.
