Happy Patch Day — Final Fantasy XIV just saw the first of many major updates as a part of its Dawntrail expansion, with Patch 7.05 introducing Tomestones of Heliometry, the Cenote Ja Ja Gural map dungeon, and plenty of Job changes.
While the standout addition in Patch 7.05 is definitely the first tier of The Arcadion (Savage), there’s something for everyone in the update.
The Arcadion: AAC Light-Heavyweight (Savage)
Of course, this is the biggest draw of Patch 7.05. These savage raids pit your strength against the same bosses encountered in the Normal difficulty, but they’re way harder in the second round.
As of Patch 7.01, you could already unlock the first difficulty level for The Arcadion, but if you want to try the beefier version, you’ll need to take an extra step for The Arcadion (Savage).
Dawntrail’s treasure map dungeon, Cenote Ja Ja Gural
Finally, Br’aaxskin Maps will actually have a chance to lead somewhere with the addition of Dawntrail’s first Treasure Dungeon, Cenote Ja Ja Gural.
This Treasure Dungeon will work in the same way as the Excitatron 6,000, with a series of fight chambers and pairs of doors that may or may not unlock, depending on your luck.
Tomestones of Heliometry
Tomestones of Heliometry are the weekly capped Tomestones for Dawntrail, and they’re obtainable by completing certain high level duties. These Heliometry are exchangeable for the gear shown above.
Duty Roulette has also been updated, with Tomestones of Heliometry being rewarded in the following numbers:
Roulette | Heliometry rewarded |
---|---|
Duty Roulette: Expert | 40 |
Duty Roulette: Leveling | 20 |
Duty Roulette: Trials | 15 |
Duty Roulette: Main Scenario | 50 |
Duty Roulette: Alliance Raids | 50 |
Duty Roulette: Normal Raids | 20 |
Duty Roulette: Mentor | 10 |
Duty Roulette: Frontline | 20 |
