We are proud to present the patch notes for Crossroads, which follows the Warrior of Light's continued adventures on the continent of Tural, and features the first installment in the new alliance raid series, Echoes of Vana'diel, in which the worlds of FINAL FANTASY XI and XIV collide.
A host of other additions includes Pelupelu allied society quests, new trials, and more.
* Additional features will be implemented in future updates:
Futures Rewritten (Ultimate) is scheduled to be released in Patch 7.11.
A new custom deliveries client (Nitowikwe), Wachumeqimeqi quests, and Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures sidequests are scheduled to be released in Patch 7.15.
The Cloud of Darkness (Chaotic) is scheduled to be released one week after Patch 7.15.
Additional role quests are scheduled to be released in Patch 7.16.
Patch 7.1 contains content that can only be accessed by registering the expansion packs for FINAL FANTASY XIV to your service account. To distinguish between adjustments that are and are not affected by the registration of these expansions, the following notations will be used throughout the patch notes:
Playable Content
A Pelupelu base of operations has been added to Dock Poga, Kozama'uka (X:37.2 Y:16.8).
* Due to this addition, the position of certain monsters, elite marks, and treasure hunt coffers has been adjusted.
An aetheryte has been installed in Dock Poga.
Allied Society Quests are comprised of main quests, which chart the trials and tribulations of a specific society, and daily quests involving myriad requests and issues to resolve.
After completing the first main quest for an allied society, players can accept up to three daily quests per day (Earth time). Completing daily quests improves your reputation with that society, which in turn unlocks further main quests.
The Pelupelu allied society main quests and daily quests will employ an automatic level adjustment system known as quest sync, which will match the difficulty of the battles to the player's current job and class levels. Any experience received upon the completion of these quests will be adjusted accordingly. Furthermore, certain quests will not allow players to proceed with a class or job that is different than when they accepted them.
Players can earn Pelu pelplumes by completing Pelupelu daily quests. These can be exchanged with Pavli in Dock Poga (X:37.1 Y:16.1) for a variety of items. The number of Pelu pelplumes currently held is displayed in the Currency window.
* As an exception, aetheryte icons will be prioritized over quest icons.
The final quest of each chapter must be completed before it can be unlocked.
Players must have furnishing placement authorization to renovate the interior of a private estate. In the case of free company estates, you must also have hall remodeling authorization.
In addition to new interior designs, you may also choose a design originating from any housing area.
Furthermore, you are free to change your estate's interior design as many times as you like. Please note, however, that all furnishings will automatically be placed in the storeroom.
* The interior design cannot be changed if your estate's storeroom possesses insufficient space.
* Interior fixtures will not be changed.
Entries that did not win have also been selected to serve as new furnishings.
Cattleya Seeds can be purchased from the following vendors:
To unlock a designated character's voice, the corresponding item is required. These items can be acquired after completing the sidequest “Every Little Thing She Does Is Mahjong” and the main scenario quest “Heavensward,” by speaking with Dibourdier in the Gold Saucer (X:7.1 Y:7.8) and exchanging MGP.
Additional character voices will become available by progressing through the main story.
Open the Gold Saucer menu and navigate to the Mahjong tab. Under Mahjong Character Voices, you may enable or disable the feature, or select the desired character to be used during matches.
* The selected character voice and accompanying portrait will not play or display for other players.
