The Celestia Citizen (“Warming Up to Winter” Edition)
Hello, my fellow Celestians! And welcome to another edition of the Celestia Citizen!
Firstly, we are several weeks into Winter for the year. With Spring due to begin around March 20th, this means the halfway mark will be reached sometime during the first week of February. And as we settle in to keep warm and get by with shorter days and longer nights, we also look towards the coming of the next major patch. Kick in your heaters and fireplaces to the appropriate setting, pour your hot beverage of choice, and settle in as we make it through this Winter to reach the warmer months.
And speaking of good news: The first of the Live Letters for Patch 7.2 is scheduled for this month, listed in FFXIV News section. This will give us some of what to expect with this major patch, and should serve as a reminder to those who have not done so for the following.
If you participate in PvP and seek the Series’ rewards up to, and including, the level 25 reward of the Loose Fit Attire Coffer, you have just a few weeks left to complete your climb. Do your daily PvP, get your Series level up, and work for this limited time attire for your character! If you also want some additional EXP for your PvP level gain on days between now and Patch 7.2, participate in Crystalline Conflict and Rival Wings. My personal recommendation is Crystalline Conflict. The turnaround time for completing 1 or 2 matches would earn you more EXP in that period of time than you would get doing a single Frontline match.
There will be other preparations to make for 7.2, some of which are basic: Maxing your Scrips, Tomestones, etc. Please look towards more information to come in the future, as we get closer to a more conclusive date for Patch 7.2’s release and what will be present within it.
And lastly, please refer to the News below for the schedule for some of our upcoming and recurring events, and be sure to sign up if you are interested via our Discord server!
