 What's New 

9/29/2021 - Version update drop Oct 1, 2021.

Even with all the delays, there's nothing to worry about. The next version update is still dropping on October 1, 2021. This update still has a bit to offer, so there will be something to do for everyone. This time around we have a slightly not and slightly custom Halloween event also planned. I hope everyone is looking forward to enjoying some Halloween in Vana'diel this October. This month we have a new mount coming for Halloween, and more. So please stay tuned for October 5 for way more information regarding the Halloween Event.

Until then. Server update is Friday, please expect the server to be down most of the evening Friday, for updates and more. It may not seem like a big update, but on the back end this update is very large scale.

9/26/2021 - What's Coming Soon?

Due to many delays and setbacks. The new additional 100 job points has been delayed by quite a bit. However the Halloween Event is still planned to kick off as initially planned. There are also large scale job adjustments coming with the job points update to ALL jobs. This is going to be on a very large scale and will take quite some time to get implemented. This update could be delayed as far as November. When doing job points I want to make sure this is accross the board and that it feels almost like in a way you are leveling to level 99. With this job point system I think you will find that that is the case and plus some. Right now I will slowly be implementing all of the existing job traits for jobs as we continue to move up. So its like your doing job points plus the level cap raise all in 1 fell swoop. With this I need to adjust things accordingly. With many adjustments I think the large job point update needs to be postponed a bit longer while I work out the details. With this, the October update is still planned for October 1. What is coming is yet to be determined at this point. Stay tuned.

8/1/2021 - DIGIFEST BEAT THE HEAT CAMPAIGN!

Each week there is something new to look forward too for the month of August.


 * Week 1: New mount - Speak to Hugo in Aht Urhgan Whitegate (F-10)
 * Week 2: Experience Points Bonus for the following zones:
 * Castle Oztroja [S]
 * Lufaise Meadows
 * Bibiki Bay
 * Sauromugue Champaign [S]
 * Vunkerl Inlet [S]
 * Week 3: Temenos Tier 1 chip to enter Ultima campaign.
 * Week 4: Additional Alexandrites higher drops week for T3 and T4 ZNM.

There will be something new each week. The mount will stay the whole month of August and will be unavailable September 1, 2021.

7/31/2021 - Updates ahead and whats new now

Season 2 starts at the end of August. But today there was an update. I'll overview what's new and whats about to come. Hunts are ramping up for a change as well in season 2 part 2. So with this I decided it would be best to also work on a hunt campaign.


 * Implementation the Beat the Heat Digifest Campaign Week 1 (New Mount!)
 * Revamp the system for cotton and linen coin purses so they will always drop from ZNM.
 * Experience Points in the past yield the most experience, Signet areas yield the second best, and Sanction areas yield the third best experience points
 * Hunt assault points have been doubled. The text will still say the old amount but it is confirmed to be doubled.

I bet you are wondering, where can you get the new mount? Speak to Hugo in Aht Urhgan Whitegate (F-10). This NPC will be very unique in season 2 when he becomes a unique NPC for achievements.

Now let's talk about season 2. Season 2 is to offer new things. Gear upgrades for the first time, fights that contain new gear and using the FFXI i119 concept of battlefield difficulties for these fights. This is something I'm hoping to be able to implement for other content in the game at a later date.

I'm also looking into a hard mode limbus, where the runs will consist of alexandrites as well dropping from mobs in Limbus and even more powerful gear. But this will be at a later date!

7/25/2021 - Wiki Update

Wiki was finally updated! Server has been updated recently with trying to fix issues with BCNM instance Limbus. Finally everything is mostly resolved. HNM Kings's now spawn within 24 hours or so. Making them easier to obtain after server reboots. I'm hoping no big changes until the new addition to Season 2.
