Good day, adventurers!
The first version update following the game's recent 23rd anniversary is nearly upon us.
Did you manage to get your hands on a Kupon W-MOGB so you can participate in the Mog Bonanza weapon exchange? For those of you that have yet to do so, you can get one of these valuable tickets just by logging into the game with an available slot in your inventory, so don't delay!
As previously mentioned, the June version update will also see the renewal of Limbus.
■ Limbus
Previously, "Limbus" was the name given to the region comprised of Temenos and Apollyon. It was not specifically referring to any particular battle content within the game, but it is now officially the name of in-game content.
As the first step in this renewal process, we have added some basic monsters and gameplay elements, as well as NPCs for reforging artifact and relic armor.
![]()
I think the primary objective of the content will be reforging your artifact and relic armor. For those of you looking to reforge relic armor, please head to Temenos; and those of you wishing to reforge artifact armor will want to head to Apollyon. You'll be able to reforge your armor up to +4 now. Also, since it's an area packed full of monsters, I think it might be a good choice for character leveling as well. Please refer to the version update info that accompanies the next update for more details regarding level settings, upgrades, and more. It is our hope that you work with your fellow linkshell members, friends, and other party members to take on this new challenge, or even enjoy playing it solo.
With this version update, we are implementing the basic foundation for the content, so there are no additions such as notorious monsters yet. However, we plan to keep updating Limbus so that it provides even more robust battle content and a place for many new adventures to come. I hope you're looking forward to this exciting change as much as we are.
■ Ambuscade
This time in Ambuscade, you'll be taking on Quadav and Uragnite.
As you deal damage to the boss, the Quadav calls for help from companions that can offer support during the battle. Defeating those companions removes the buff that is applied to the boss, so be sure to target them first.
The Uragnite tend to retreat within their shells, meaning you can only inflict one point of damage at a time. Therefore, you'll want jobs and alter egos in your party that are capable of quickly landing multiple hits when facing them. Also, the monster responds differently to physical and magic damage. Being able to use both types equally will help increase your odds of victory in this battle.
Both monster types this month tend to focus on defense, so keep an eye out for your chance to inflict damage and be sure to seize the opportunity when it arises.
■ Vana'Bout - Round 5 Rewards
All of you reached 150% of the target objective for Vana'Bout - Round 5 in what seemed like record time. We are extremely grateful that so many of you participated in the event, especially since it was held so close to the game's 23rd anniversary. Everyone worked together to earn all six of the overall rewards.
The Model Synergy Furnace II is being added to the login campaign. Just as its name suggests, it is a synergy furnace designed to be used as a furnishing only, and not for actual synergy. However, it does make for an excellent addition to your room.
We have also added an NPC moogle that serves as a way to obtain a Moogle Masque for a limited time. Although this was mentioned in Freshly Picked Vana'diel, please note that this is simply meant to be a trial run only.
We plan to cover this in more detail in future updates, but our plan is to stick to the following:Using these simple rules, we plan to perform multiple test runs of the feature going forward.
- The moogle only appears for a limited time
- You can trade various items for the Moogle Masque
Therefore, don't miss this chance to get yourself a Moogle Masque!
That does it for this month's update. Until next time...
Safe journeys!
