High praise coming from someone who's not heard my as-yet-unannounced catgirl ska band.įor a more exhaustive list of what's new and different in Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty (that's still a mouthful), check out this brief rundown over on the Final Fantasy XIV site.Ī full changelog will accompany the patch when it drops sometime this October. Most importantly, however: musicians can now team up and "create beautiful music" through a new ensemble feature. I'm told FFXIV is actually a pretty stunning JRPG, so letting you revisit stories without starting from scratch seems quite nice.īlue Mages are also getting a major update, upping the level cap and adding new quests. Curiously for an MMO, there's a new New Game+ mode, which lets you jump back into completed quests with your current level and gear. The update continues Shadowbringers' main story with hours of new quests and a new dungeon, The Grand Cosmos, which you can pop into with real or AI pals. Vowdeeds isn't all about gothic robots, mind. With Nier director Yoko Taro (that chap with a moon on his head) directly involved, Square Enix warn things might get a little bit weird. The Machinist job design has not been changed but there are a few new additions. The Yorha: Dark Apocalypse raid series begins with a 24-player Alliance raid The Copied Factory. Final Fantasy XIV will introduce all-new job changes to every Ranged DPS to both Ranged Physical and Ranged Magical classes, as well as a brand new Reaper class, all will be introduced in the new Endwalker expansion pack. ![]() ![]() Shadowbringers patch 5.1, elegantly titled "Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty", finally boots up Final Fantasy XIV's long-teased crossover with android think 'em up Nier: Automata. The lettering, however, does not match the Eorzean used during the latter Fourth Astral Era, suggesting that the automaton was crafted far after the fall of Mhach. Journal On the sole of her left foot can be seen the inscription, With this, I profess my love to thee. ![]() Next month's Shadowbringers update finally brings the two together in the first Yorha: Dark Apocalypse raid. Surprisingly visible despite being a queen of the shadows. Really, that's just how it goes.īut hey! Suppose if I ever chance my mind on either, I can always kill two birds with one stone. I'm sure it has all that clever storytelling and philosophical guff you lot say it does, but I never got past the whole "explode yourself to see some robot panties" layer. And honestly? It’s not a bother to me.You know what Final Fantasy XIV was missing? Existentially depressed robots, probably. There have been people who have apologised to me for making mistakes. So I like to pay back that patience and kindness when I queue. So you need to be at 100 battery if you want the Queen. This is especially true for Automaton Queen which has a 5 sec windup before it can begin doing damage. There really is no reason to use at less then 100 battery. (And sometimes when I’m tired as hell, I become That Person who stands in all the AoEs.)

With the release of the 6.1 update, many players are returning to FFXIV, including those who are obsessed with glamour. ![]() It is a very cool skill that will summon an Automaton to the battlefield to fight alongside the Machinist. Automaton Queen is the next skill to be featured. Of course I’ve had my share of shouty people in DF and PF (and I tend not to make comics of those a comic filled with venomous language isn’t funny at all!) but on the whole, FFXIV pugs are pretty encouraging. A video demonstrating the Automaton Queen skill. Me on tank: Wow look at all these boss mechanics I never knew existed because I literally never have to deal with these on healer! :’)Įven though I poke fun at pugs every week, I do appreciate that I don’t have to be an expert on my first attempt at something I can ask questions and get answers, I can make mistakes and it’s not a big deal.
