The following issues have been resolved:

- In the raid dungeon "The Final Coil of Bahamut: Turn 3", certain dungeon mechanics have been changed. Please follow the link below for details:
http://sqex.to/dLI

- In the raid dungeon "The Second Coil of Bahamut: Turn 2", under certain circumstances, accepting a Raise would cause the character to appear in an abnormal location.

- In the trial "Akh Afah Amphitheatre (Extreme)", Shiva's model may not have reappeared after using "Diamond Dust".

- In the dungeon "Sastasha (Hard)", the boss "Captain Madison" may have become unresponsive.

- In the FATE "Defending the Hive", at a certain point when a popup appears, selecting "No" would cause the character to become unresponsive.

- Using the action "Assassinate" under certain conditions would cause the character to appear in an abnormal location.

- It was possible to stable your chocobo at both your free company house and personal house at the same time.
(* As we have already informed you previously, the state of your personal chocobo after the fix will depend on what the state of your personal chocobo was before the fix.)
-If you had already fetched your chocobo from your free company house stable before the fix, after the fix you will only be able to fetch the chocobo from your personal house, and by doing so the data for the chocobo from your personal house stable will be used.
-If you had already fetched your chocobo from your personal house before the fix, after the fix you will only be able to fetch the chocobo from your free company house stable, and by doing so the data for the chocobo from your free company house stable will be used.
-If you left your chocobo stabled at both locations before the fix, only your free company house-stabled chocobo’s data will be saved.
-Additionally, due to the effects of this issue, after your personal chocobo’s data has been overwritten you may find that it has exceeded its rank cap in experience. In this case, feeding your chocobo a Thavnairian onion to raise its rank cap will allow you to gain the correct experience. There will be no loss of any experience that you have gained.
We apologize for any inconvenience..

- When doing a Grand Company Expert Delivery, the delivered item would not be the designated item.

- When the following items were HQ, the “GP” stat was higher than intended, which resulted in equipped materia having a lower value:

Botanist’s Gloves / Fisher’s Gloves / Militia Bracelets

Additionally, we would like to mention that quest icons currently appear over NPCs’ heads and on the minimap, but not in the map window.
With few days remaining in the seasonal event, we are working to implement a solution to this quickly.

Your feedback is very important to us, and we will be more careful when designing future events.
We apologise for any inconvenience that this issue may have caused.
