Back in January Square Enix announced some details of patch 2.2 for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Well, that patch is now rolling out and it’s going by the name Through The Maelstrom. This new patch introduces new quests, characters and monsters to fight.
- Yugiri –Â New character who along with other members of her country have left the nation of Doma. They are looking for refuge in Eorzea and are trying to gain the right to remain.
- Leviathan –Â New Primal that is available to fight has been summoned by The Sahagin who are natives of Indigo Deep. Available in Hard or Extreme difficulty.
- Side Story Quests –Â There’s two new quests available for players. These are the Case Of The Thieving Duelist where the character Hildibrand continues to search for a duelist who steals people’s weapons. The second is the Gilgamesh Battle, where Gilgamesh is a warrior who wants to get stronger, and it is your duty to challenge and beat him.
- The Binding Coil of Bahamut: Invasion –Â Â Four new coil turns available.
- Tier 1-5 Raids –Â Weekly lockouts have been removed.

Looking forward tom this! Coil is being added to the duty finder which is going to make it fail central! Right where I belong!

And i’m sure the Myth cap is going which for me is great news also!

I would fit right in! I’d have to beat Titan HM first anyways, which would probably not happen anyways unless I’d get carried…
I wish I had time to play this game. This looks amazing…

I managed to get titan done without being carried. Partyfinder is the way forward, 1 tank 5 dps and 2 healers. The problem is finding a group that will fail together and win together, too many instances of pleayers ditching after the 2nd or third fail.
Think it’s getting nerfed in 2.2 though

I don’t like the constant pressure of engame content. I enjoyed the journey to Lv 50 and the end of the story with the challenges that were on the way but HM Primals and Coils are just too stessful for me. It would have been nice to get my Relic weapon, though. Beating Titan was the last step for me if I recall correctly.

Yep, the Mythology Cap is going too. Also worth noting that there’ll be two hard modes of existing dungeons, a brand new dungeon and a shed load of other stuff added to keep us busy for another three months.

I am loving this game at the moment, the only downside being that I know how good it looks on PS4 and every time I hit a new location I wish I was playing it on that! Oh well, only a month to go!
