Final Fantasy XIV 7.0: Dawntrail - Summer 2024

[Lokus]

Kinda annoying they remove Unreal for a whole patch. Hoping they revamp it somehow when they bring it back in 7.1.

Just a few more hours to enjoy really loud moon singing splash screen before we get the flashbang splash screen

[Gokulo]

The flashbang might not be there anymore, I think they mentioned receiving feedback about it during PLL or some interviews so it'll most likely be fixed for release. Hopefully, lol

[Prothescar]

i am rdy

[Anoat]

I did all of those except the guildhests didn’t think it was worth it lol but props for min-max

[Gokulo]

I'm lazy, only did dungeons and FATEs + book

[Lokus]

As things get datamined due to the patch being out, I'm constantly reminded how much I hate that discord is what is being used to host information nowadays cause it makes it really annoying to search for shit.

[Dantrag]

GD like a 50GB update lol

PS5 version already loaded in but can’t play during maintenance I’m like the LET ME IN gif

[The Stig]

Oh is the game down now? I was gonna go finish the MSQ lol, i stopped after beating the last boss! But kept putting it off haha

Ah well I'll do it in a couple of weeks; I'll let the rushers/DDOSers have their fill first lol, assuming after it'll be a zerg fest of the servers xD

Yeah, there's always a longer maintenance before an expansion.

It will be interesting to see how will servers fare this launch. Historically every other expansion had a pretty smooth start and last one was Shadowbringers, so we're due for another one, haha. I also remember them saying they've been implementing some special measures to help decrease login problems as much as possible this time

[Anoat]

Yeah they implemented fixes after Endwalker so they claim, and also bought a shit load of new servers for extra capacity. I don’t think the demand and hype for DT is as high as EW was, so that will help too. Guess we’ll find out soon.

Complete patch notes are up

[Gokulo]

Meh, they changed it so that the new SGE dot doesn't stack with the old one ;/

Job guide (with all actions) also updated https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/jobguide/battle/

edit: had a quick browse, it was puzzling to me why drk and gnb's gap closer don't do damage anymore but pld and war keep theirs. by the sounds of it, it's so there's 1 less button to push during a drk and gnb's burst phases??

[Gokulo]

Was able to log in on the minute, queue took about 20 min, so overall really good. We'll see how stable it is from here


Feels so amazing to watch cutscenes with no jagged eges on characters anymore, lol

266 Q left for me

[Gokulo]

The music in Tuliyollal is a wholeass vibe

[Anoat]

I logged in okay but DPS duty ques as to be expected are “more than 30 minutes” on everything lol, two new DPS jobs will do that
