FINAL FANTASY XIV Hotfixes (Aug. 27, 2024)
■Shadow, the probationary European logical data center released to mitigate congestion following the launch of Dawntrail, has been shut down.
*Characters that were on the Shadow data centre when this maintenance began were automatically returned to their Home World at the end of maintenance.
■The additional instances implemented in Patch 7.0 to prevent congestion in Tuliyollal and Solution Nine have been removed.
■We removed the automatic process implemented to ease congestion upon the release of Patch 7.0 which logged out players who were inactive for 30 minutes.
Along with the above change, we have also removed the process that prevented characters who had travelled to a new World using the Data Centre Travel system/World Visit system from being able to log in at their destination if those systems had already reached maximum capacity.
*Please note that you cannot apply for Data Centre Travel/World Visit if the maximum capacity has been reached.
■The following issues have been addressed:
・During AAC Light-heavyweight M2 (Savage), the enemy actions Centerstage Combo and Outerstage Combo caused an erroneous sound effect.
・During AAC Light-heavyweight M4 (Savage), players would remain in combat after being incapacitated by the enemy action Cannonbolt.
・During AAC Light-heavyweight M4 and AAC Light-heavyweight M4 (Savage), the distance the boss was targetable when using a mouse was incorrect.
・When undertaking duties introduced in Patch 5.x, the NPC Urianger would fail to move or execute specific actions under certain conditions.
・The description of the warrior PvE action Damnation was incorrect.
