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?
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.
In what will surely be a fight for the ages, the North American Community Team will once again take on the multitudes of challengers awaiting them in The Feast during a special Duty Commenced: Culling Time! Starting Friday, May 20th at 3PM PT on the Official FFXIV Twitch Channel, Zhexos, Camate, Bayohne, and Sicycre, (and possibly Luxpheras??) will take on all comers from the Aether Data Center. Tune in and watch in awe and amazement! Or just hang out and have fun with the community! See you all there!
The FFXIV Community team has been busy releasing a whole bunch of 3.3 teasers and tidbits today. They started by releasing a Main Scenario teaser with some new screenshots taken from the upcoming main story quests.
They then went on to release a bit of information about the new Dungeons released, including the fact that they will require ilvl 200 gear to enter.
They also added a bunch of new screenshots to a Facebook album of Patch 3.3 images, including this familiar looking mollusk.
All this in preparation for Live Letter XXX which airs live Sunday morning at 2AM PT on the official FFXIV Twitch channel.
Thanks to Aya for posting this info on her Twitter, we would like to congratulate and wish a huge welcome to Chenin Matthews, who was announced as the newest member of the NA Community team in a post on the Official Forums. It looks like the team now gets some caster love, though I think they could use a good bard… 🙂
We look forward to hearing more from Chenin (@akhmourne, Luxpheras on the Official Forums) in the days to come.
