Final Patch Notes for Newfound Adventures: 6.1

Recommended Posts

NewAdv.png

The final set of patch notes include job changes, unlike the preliminary notes, and you can read the complete set of them here!

The patch notes haven't changed too much since we received the preliminary ones, but Square Enix did add the changelog for the changes made to jobs in this patch. Looks like Samurai players got some substantial buffs, and the job tuning around the board is making jobs stronger rather than nerfing the ones that are already strong.

As a tank main who plays mostly DRK, I'm very happy they fixed Blood Weapon...and a 1,500 potency self-heal is pretty nice, too. And PLD got even more self-healing with their newest AoE combo!

Patch 6.1, Newfound Adventures, launches tomorrow. Check out the notes below:

A new type of PvP match between small teams, Crystalline Conflict, has been added.

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Crystalline Conflict PvP duties pit teams Astra and Umbra against one another in tactical confrontations. Each team may have up to five players, for a total of ten match participants. Teams are challenged to maintain control over a tactical crystal, which must be transported to a designated location amid the heat of battle.

There are three arenas currently available for Crystalline Conflict matches─the Palaistra, the Volcanic Heart, and Cloud Nine.

The Palaistra

Level Requirement   One or more jobs at level 30 or above
Time Limit   5 mins

Entering the Arena

Casual Matches
Results have no bearing on your ranking in Crystalline Conflict.
Custom Match
Results have no bearing on your ranking in Crystalline Conflict. Register with two parties of five players via the Duty Finder. There are no restrictions on party composition.
Ranked Matches
Register solo via the Duty Finder. Results will influence your ranking in Crystalline Conflict.

Role Requirements

There are no role requirements for Crystalline Conflict parties. However, matchmaking will ensure that no two players have the same job within a single party.

Basic Rules

Beginning the Match

Participants will be divided into Team Astra and Team Umbra and transported to their respective starting points. After a 30-second waiting period, the match will begin.

Chatting

Only Quick Chat is available during casual and ranked matches.
Custom matches allow for standard chat features in addition to Quick Chat.

Retaliation

Incapacitated players will be returned to their base after a short delay, where they will be allowed to rejoin combat with their HP and MP fully restored and all action recast timers reset.

Level and Item Level

When participating in Crystalline Conflict, all player attributes will be updated to their PvP counterparts.

Restrictions

The use of the following is prohibited while participating in Crystalline Conflict:

  • Class or job changes
  • Chocobo companions
  • Mounts
  • Teleportation
  • Return
  • Items
  • Gear changes

Abandoning Matches

Players who abandon a Crystalline Conflict match (not including players who join a match in progress or are vote kicked) will receive a penalty. Players so penalized will be unable to use the Duty Finder for 30 minutes.

Players inactive for over a period of two minutes will automatically be removed from play.

* Players who remain inside the duty with less than the required number of party members, or are participating in a custom match, will not receive a penalty.

Victory Conditions

To win, one team must move the tactical crystal from the center of the field to the goal point. If neither team accomplishes this during the time limit, the match will proceed into overtime.

The team with a greater progress score must keep the entire opposing team out of the bounds of the tactical crystal for three seconds to win. The team with a lesser progress score must beat the opponent's progress score during overtime to win.

* If neither team can fulfill the overtime victory requirements, the match will end in a draw.

The Tactical Crystal

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

The all-important object placed at the arena's centerpoint is called the "tactical crystal."

The tactical crystal will remain bound until the first 30 seconds of the match have passed. Once the tactical crystal is unbound, a ring will appear at its base. Should one team be fully in control of this ring─with no members of the opposing team present within its bounds─that team will be able to move the crystal.

Transporting the Tactical Crystal

The crystal can only be moved along the crystal line─a dedicated path within the arena.

Its movement will be halted when combatants from both teams are present within its bounds. When combatants from neither team are present, the crystal will move back toward the centerpoint.

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Tactical Crystal Speed

Should the tactical crystal be wrestled from your team's control, and you manage to reclaim it, the crystal will travel faster when moving back through a stretch of the line your team has moved it once before.
* Even if your team has failed to claim the crystal for the entirety of the match, once your team has gained control of the crystal, it will move at increased speed until it has returned to the centerpoint.

Checkpoints and Progression

Checkpoints can be found halfway between the centerpoint and each team's goal. Upon reaching a checkpoint, the tactical crystal will stop moving.

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

The team attempting to clear the checkpoint must remain in the crystal's ring until the Clear Progress gauge reaches 100%. The gauge will only increase so long as that team holds control of the ring. A greater majority of party members in the ring will hasten the gauge's progression.

Should the opposing team have a greater majority at any point, the tactical crystal will begin moving toward the opposing team's goal. However, any progress made in clearing the checkpoint will not be lost.

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Advanced Rules

Crystalline Conflict arenas include a variety of tactically useful elements to make matches more dynamic.

Sprint Zones

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

The Palaistra and Volcanic Heart feature unique paths suited to running. Entering these "sprint zones" will grant the effect of Swift Sprint, greatly increasing player movement speed.

Jump Glyphs

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Cloud Nine is equipped with jump glyphs. Stepping on a jump glyph will rapidly transport you to a specific location on the field.

Arena Events: Eruption

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

The Volcanic Heart periodically erupts, scattering self-destructing bombs across the field. Those who fail to avoid their explosive radii will take damage. Bomb cores will remain at the site of bombs' destruction, granting those who acquire them bonuses to damage dealt and limit gauge increases.

Arena Events: Turbulence

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Players cast up into the air by Cloud Nine's periodic turbulence will take damage upon being returned unceremoniously to the ground. However, they may acquire black chocobo feathers while in the air, granting them a soft landing and nullifying the damage. The locations of black chocobo feathers are indicated by markers on the ground. Those who do not wish to go flying can negate the effects of turbulence by using Guard. Turbulence also leaves behind a twister at the site where it occurred, and can be confirmed on the map. Stumbling into these twisters will result in damage and knockback.

Medicine Kits

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Each arena comes equipped with medicine kits. Accessing these kits will restore 50% of a player's HP, and each can only be claimed by one player.
* Medicine kits cannot be claimed by those whose HP is at 100%.
* Each kit can only be claimed by one player.
* Once a kit has been claimed, a replacement will be generated after a set period of time has passed.

Seasons

Seasons are periods of time in which players compete to earn the highest tier and Crystal Credit ranks possible. Announcements will be made on the Lodestone marking the beginning and ending of each season.

At the end of each season, players of sufficient rank will receive season rewards. Participants' current ranks are displayed on the Lodestone during a season. Please note that ranks will be reset between seasons.

Ranked Matches

The Bronze through Diamond tiers are divided further into "risers." The number of risers per tier varies.

Tier

A player's tier represents their standing in the hierarchy of Crystalline Conflict. Unlike the Feast, players cannot be demoted over the course of a season. As such, players will retain the current standing even when losing a match immediately after promotion to a higher tier.

Risers

The Bronze through Diamond tiers are divided further into "risers." The number of risers per tier varies.

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

Rising Stars

The new PvP ranking system uses Rising Stars, rather than ratings, to indicate progress within the Unranked through Diamond tiers. When you win a ranked match, you will gain one Rising Star. Similarly, a loss will remove one Star. Once you have earned the maximum Rising Stars for one riser, an additional win will allow you to move up a riser.

  • Winning a match when you have three Rising Stars will allow you to move up a riser, starting with one Rising Star.
c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c
  • After reaching the top riser for a tier and earning three Rising Stars, an additional win will advance you to the next tier, starting at the lowest riser with one Rising Star.
c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c
  • Winning three matches in a row will apply a streak bonus, netting you two Rising Stars per win. Earning a streak bonus while you possess two Rising Stars will allow you to move up a riser or tier depending on your current overall standing.
  • While it is possible to move down to a lower riser upon losing a match, you will never drop down to a lower tier during a given season.
  • Moreover, you cannot lose Rising Stars while you are unranked.

The Crystal Tier

There is one tier above Diamond─the Crystal tier. When ranked in this tier, your skill level will be reflected by your Crystal Credit, rather than Rising Stars. Your Crystal Credit score will increase by 100 upon winning a match, and decrease by 100 after losing. Significant differences between your team and the opposing team's average Credit will increase the amount your score changes upon a win or loss. Streak bonuses do not apply to Crystal Credit.

vNEWMNCsOTu709b_kR7LodvPu8.png

A new reward system applicable to all PvP content, Series Malmstones, has been added.

c73cd284013587066d8f9e697fab1db9f007372c

The Series Malmstones system provides unique rewards to players who participate in PvP during a given Series─a period of time lasting the duration of one major patch (e.g. from the release of Patch 6.1 until the release of Patch 6.2).

From the release of Patch 6.1, participating in PvP content will earn you Series EXP, which will increase your Series level. Increasing your Series level will unlock various Series rewards.

Series Level

The maximum Series level is 30, though you may continue to accumulate EXP and "extra levels" after that.

Series Rewards

Each Series lasts for a predetermined period of time. After a Series ends, a new one will begin, and available rewards will change accordingly─though rewards earned during one Series can still be claimed during the next. Make sure to check your Series malmstones and claim any earned rewards via the PvP Profile!

Trophy Crystals

A new currency, Trophy Crystals, has been added as a Series reward. Trophy Crystals can be exchanged at the Wolves' Den Pier for a variety of items.

vNEWMNCsOTu709b_kR7LodvPu8.png

The following changes have been made to the Wolves' Den Pier:

Job icons will now be displayed in the chat log and on player nameplates - chat log icons will only display within parties and alliances. The transaction fee for items sold on the market board can now be incorporated into their total price, displayed under total. He comments about how this is a kind of glum update but they want to make it easier for the players! Glasses and wing fashion accessories will now display when engaged in battle in the overworld. Items stored in a variety of locations can now be selected when casting glamorous in an inn room - e.g. including items in the glamour dresser for the regular glamour interface.

      Please look forward to more details about the above changes in part 2 of the Producer’s Live Letter.

      Release two weeks after patch 6.3 Players must first complete Abyssos the eighth circle savage It feels pretty fast (since the last ultimate) but they’d had to keep it a secret to prevent players from speculating too much on what mechanics might be included Duty Support for various Heavensward duties Job Adjustments PvP series 3 begins, season 5 of crystalline conflict begins, new arena The Clockwork Castletown Crafting and Gathering Updates Tool Enhancement Quests - Splendorous Tools New Custom Deliveries: Anden - could he be turned back into a human?

      Deep Dungeon 3 - Eureka Orthos
      Must complete the MSQ “Endwalker” and progress to floor 50 of palace of the dead If you’ve done any palace of the dead you will understand what kind of content this is The bosses coming in Eureka will be much more like regular bosses compared to in Heaven on High - maybe this means more mechanics? Island Sanctuary Updates
      New ways to sort through the UI to figure out what's best to queue in the workshop Can view factors like popularity and supply while setting agenda

      Treasure hunt update
      New dungeon only appears in Elpis. Housing update 
      additional 6 regular wards and 6 subdivisions per world - available for purchase via the lottery system. In newer servers with houses still available currently, the wards will not be added just yet. Look for the lodestone post to come to see which will be available to private buyers and free companies UI improvements
      Icons for damage type in battle log and flying text. Up until patch 6.3 there is a lot of content, and they want to make sure to get all of this info up to date with this information - please let them know if they miss anything or make an error! Display remaining time for buffs / debuffs in the party list Miscellaneous Updates
      Alternative UI theme Clear Blue
      Portraits will now display when using the duty finder - alliance raids will show your 8 person party only. Don’t forget to set it so that you’re not the only one with the default portrait! Expansion of activities available while using fashion accessories. Some parts of it will be customized - certain parts may be able to be turned on or off. More emotes will be able to be used and potentially usable while mounted. Ability to automatically open an umbrella when rain is detected. They wanted to represent the feeling similar to real life - if it’s raining you pull out your umbrella Ability to collectively entrust duplicates of stackable items to your retainer Export from portraits editor to adventurer plate and vice versa  
      Job Adjustments
      General adjustments
      There will be adjustments to usability for certain actions - this will be explained when the patch releases Paladin
      Significant adjustments extending to action rotations. For everyone who mains Paladin, the rotation has changed a lot - they apologize. Adjustment Objectives: Improve ability to deal burst damage, because of PLD's reliance on DoT damage, they don’t have as much burst - they will try to damage over time into burst damage. Paladin's defensive abilities compared to other tanks are quite difficult to use, so they are trying to alleviate some of that difficulty. Main adjustments (not all of them just the biggest ones):
      Rotation has been shortened to accommodate high powered actions. Damage over time effects for Goring Blade and Blade of Valor was removed and their potency was adjusted. Divine Might is now applied after weaponskill combos, allowing an enhanced holy spirit to be executed once without casting. Holy Shelltron’s effect has been changed to reduce damage taken, enhancing defensive capabilities against DoT. Previously removed bulwark ability has been revamped and reintroduced, offering increased defensive capability. This is just a general overview as they are continuing to work on Paladin and will be until the patch releases.  
      PvP
      Demonstrates the new CC arena, showing teleporting doors. There are environmental effects reminiscent of Eden’s promise 1 tiles.



      A festival begins and effects are activated such as AoE's, gold coins are scattered around the arena granting LB gauge when collected. This will happen once per match.


      New outfits to be released in 6.3, including the PvP series reward armor set.


       
      Alliance Raid - Euphrosyne
      After entering, Yoshi P shows off fields of yellow under blue skies and clouds.

      We follow G’raha Tia through the fields. They marvel at the environment changing, and question what G’raha is doing with his strange instrument.


      They feel that the development team has been doing a great job recently. The work that has been done is particularly impressive. Many of the environments and designs are going to be unique to what we’ve seen so far in xiv. People seemed to have a lot of fun with the first alliance raid, they look forward to expanding on the lore and there are many new mechanics to show off in the new fights! Yoshi P mentions the third fight in particular is his favorite.
      Alliance raid armor sets:
      Tank

      Maiming

      Striking

      Ranged

      Scouting

      Healing

      Casting

       
      The Omega Protocol (Ultimate)

      The entire fight is Omega, from start to finish. Similar difficulty level to DSR, but not more difficult. Will release 2 weeks after 6.3 and they will finish their final adjustments by then.


       
      New Treasure Dungeon - The Shifting Gymnasium Agonon
      Yoshi P shows off some gameplay in the new treasure map dungeon, working in a similar way to the shifting altars from previous expansions. Yoshi P runs through the typical emotions as the roulette kicks him out of the dungeon.



      New treasure map glamour

       
      New Leap of Faith course
      A pretty jumping course in the treetops. Be careful or you will fall! Collect the medals in the same way as in previous iterations. Yoshi P struggles through the course and marvels at how well some players do at these courses.

       
      Deep Dungeon 3 - Eureka Orthos

      Deep dungeon Overview - What is deep dungeon?
      Must be level 81 or above to enter Entry for 1-4 players no role restrictions, difficulty unaffected by party size To unlock, accept quest from “Koh Rabntah” in Mor Dhona to unlock, with the addition of this quest previous quests associated with Koh Rabntah will be removed. Going in looks the same as with previous Deep dungeons, with the familiar two save files. Yoshida talks through some of the basics and fights a few monsters, explaining features like aetherpool, pomanders, traps. Because of the randomization, it's a different challenge every time you enter
      Yoshi P briefly fights the floor 10 boss, an allagan-looking Korrigan, with various mechanics related to parts of the floor.

      Yoshi P showcases a new pomander, dreadnought, a transformation pomander with 2 abilities, one similar to the "rage" pomander in PotD (one shots enemies and knocks them back) and the other similar to the "lust" pomander (applies a stacking debuff on enemies). 

      He also used EO's replacement for magicite: a Demiclone that follows and helps the player fight enemies on the current floor. It disappears after the player moves to the next floor.

       
      New items available in 6.3
      New short hair style will be available, most likely from EO.

      New mounts. A new gold saucer mount and what seemed to be expensive gilded mounts, perhaps purchasable for a large sum of gil.

       
      New way to transfer items between retainer and inventory
      Yoshi P shows the new UI interactions with retainers, including selecting all types of items you want to mass transfer onto the retainer - for stackable items only at the moment. He further explained the loading bar was required while communication between the client and database occurred. 

       
      Housing Exterior and Items

       
      New collectable minions

      FFXIV PLL #74 Recap - 6.3 Live Letter Part 1
      Hello everyone! Welcome to the recap of Patch 6.3 live letter part 1.
      This is our first time trying out a recap, so feel free to give us some feedback on ways we can improve, etc.
      Video recap can be viewed here: 
      Live translations of the next PLL can be viewed on HurricaneChiela's twitch channel.
      On Friday November 12th, part one of the 6.3 live letter was held, revealing new information about what’s in store for us.
      This is the 74th live letter, and also the 10 year anniversary of the 1.0 servers shutting down. For part 1, they mentioned they will introduce a lot of content and then go into greater detail in part 2. From the following, Yoshi P will be involved in approving and finalizing a lot of content for 6.3, so much more is in store for us in part 2.
      Patch 6.3’s name is “Gods Revel, Lands Tremble” and will be released in early January 2023.

      Content to come in 6.3
      New Main Scenario Quests
      From the screenshots, Zero will be heavily involved in the next patch. Alphinaud and Alisaie will come back after a long break.


      Tataru’s Grand Endeavor 
      It’s been awhile since we’ve seen Hancock and Tataru together, Yoshi P was wondering aloud where the story will take us.

      Tales of Newfound Adventure
      Yoshi P mentioned there are probably some players who haven’t done this, and if you haven’t tried it yet you should check it out because the story is very good.

      Somehow further Hildibrand 
      Continues in 6.35 with a new cute friend. The dev team spent a long time making sure to get the balance right between the head and eyes.

      Manderville Weapons 
      Also continuing in 6.35. They teased this screenshot and again were wondering aloud what this has to do with the relic quest.

      New Tribal Quests 6.35 - The Loporrits for Crafters
      Yoshi P tried to get viewers to guess what might be the next tribal quest, and many successfully guessed Loporrits. There’s going to be a lot of fun stuff that happens with them, so definitely go and check it out.
      New Dungeon - Lapis Manalis as part of the MSQ
      Yoshi P mentioned that there’s a lot of depth to this place from a lore standpoint, but they don’t want to say too much about it. The Japanese name includes “snow mountain” in it, which fits with the screenshots being shown.


      There’s a lot that’s going to happen with the 13th, and they’re teasing that the story will continue forward there. “I don’t want to spoil it, so I’m not going to say anything!”
      New trials - Normal and Extreme
      It was mentioned in previous patches, but one thing they love is the sense of surprise they can give Warriors of Light when seeing new content for the first time, and so they want to preserve that surprise even if the MSQ hints at the direction it might take. As such, they are keeping the next trial’s content a secret for now.
      New Unreal Trial - Containment Bay P1T6 (Unreal), Sophia
      There are quite a few mechanics in Sophia, and they wanted to clean it up for this and make sure it fits the modern day of gameplay while preserving the original experience of the fight.
      New Alliance Raid - Myths of the Realm 2 - “Euphrosyne”
      Yoshi P mentioned that it’s also hard for him to pronounce the name of the new alliance raid. And again they’re trying to tease us about which gods will come around this time, they don’t want to reveal it yet.
      They showed a couple of screenshots, one with Graha and a strange device on his back. Some chat members joked that it looks like a slot machine. 


      Yoshi P mentioned that they will start working on adjustments for the alliance raid from next week.
      For the second screenshot, many jokes were made that it looks like the Windows XP default background.
      Ultimate Duty #5
      Releasing 2 weeks after 6.3 - end of January
      Currently they’re keeping all details a secret, with more to come in part 2, and if it’s okay for him to zone into the fight he will.

      Players were trying to figure out when the next ultimate would happen, and Yoshi P mentioned that there were rumors about it releasing in 6.5, but they’re on schedule for it to release 6.3. It’s a tight schedule of course and they felt it would be tough for them but they made their deadline.

      New Deep Dungeon 3. Eureka Orthos - Coming in 6.35

      The dev team released Palace of the Dead in Heavensward and Heaven on High in Stormblood, and then decided to skip over making a new one for Shadowbringers. However, they didn’t realize just how much the community loved deep dungeon as much as they do, so they decided to add a new one.
      They also mentioned that they’re aware of just how many players are challenging deep dungeon solo, and that there’s many who have soloed both deep dungeons on all jobs! Lovely shoutout to the deep dungeon community.
      EO is unlocked by completing MSQ “Endwalker” and floor 50 of Palace of the Dead Players with a job at level 81 or higher can enter. Start from level 81 in the dungeon. Rules and functionality are generally identical to prior DD’s but some new features will be included. Duty support for level 60 Heavensward MSQ dungeons
      This includes a redesign for The Aetherochemical Research Facility. Adding in more and more duty support, with plans to add it for all dungeons in HW. Job Adjustments (PvE/PvP)
      Paladin rotation will be completely changed in 6.3, but otherwise not much in the way of large PvE changes. They asked for a bit more time before revealing what exactly those changes will look like as they’re still adjusting them. Expect more updates in the part 2 live letter.
      PvP Adjustments
      There will be some job adjustments in PvP, and changes for content like Rival Wings, so look forward to more information in the part 2 live letter.
      Series 3 will begin Season 5 begins New CC arena

      There was a lot of feedback from players that the Cloud map was the least popular and highly disliked by players. As such, they’ve decided to put it in the map rotation less frequently, but the exact rotation hasn’t been decided yet.
      Crafting and Gathering Updates
      Tool Enhancement Quests
      Coming in 6.35. There’s going to be an interesting story involved with this one, so definitely don’t miss it.

      New Custom Deliveries
      Not much information on this one but they’re sure no one can guess who will involved in this questline.

      Misc. crafting and gathering updates
      Collectability values will be displayed when gathering collectables Additions to the fish guide New spearfishing area will be added to Upper La Noscea, the first to allow diving from the ARR regions

      Island Sanctuary Updates
      New sanctuary ranks and visions New item rewards New materials crops animals and handicrafts New structures Improvements to the workshop interface Option to collect yields/leavings at once Animals under care will be eligible for release when a new animal is captured Save orchestrion settings Visitors will now hear the islekeep’s orchestrion Notifications when visitors arrive at your island



      They’re also planning to add further updates in 6.4, such as placing outdoor furniture. Yoshi P asked for a bit more time for them to work on that before implementing it.
      New Treasure Hunt Dungeon
      The Shifting Gymnasion Agonon 
      Accessible via a new Elpis-centric treasure map, which can only be accessed in the Elpis zone.
      Gold Saucer Update
      New course added for leap of faith. Yoshi P expressed a bit of uncertainty how this will work with the game’s updated collision system, so they may need to make some changes before implementing it.
      Housing
      Additional wards for all residential areas 6 new wards and subdivisions 1800 new plots per world Planned for sale by lottery UI Updates
      Icons for damage type in the battle log and flying text Buff/Debuff timers in party list
      Misc Updates
      A new UI theme which they can’t show today but will preview later. Portraits will now display when using DF 24 person content will only show your party member portraits Expansion of actions available while using fashion accessories Cast glamours and dye retainer equipment while using fashion accessories Ability to cast glamours on your own equipment directly from retainers inventory Ability to filter newly added items at sundry splendors vendors
      We hope this info was helpful to you, and we will continue recapping the live letter in the future!
