FFXIV Patch 7.05 adds Dawntrail Treasure Dungeon, Arcadion Savage, and Tome gear

Get those maps ready.

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.

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).

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.
