A maintenance at last

At the following time, we will be performing maintenance on all Worlds to accompany hotfixes for patch 2.2. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn will be unavailable.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

* The World transfer service will be suspended 15 minutes before maintenance begins, and will be unavailable until maintenance has ended.

[Date & Time]
From Apr. 3, 2014 7:00 to 10:00 (GMT) *Completion time may be subject to change.

[Affected Service]
- FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn

The rate at which atma can be obtained from FATEs has been decreased >_>

Or...
[Date & Time]
Apr. 3, 2014 from 12:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. (PDT)

Which is the time most in the US are used to going by.

And then we find out it does nothing to resolve the lag.

The players brain...
It may be that they will increase the rate somewhat however... Less likely, but always a possibility, is that they make sure that an atma is dropped after a certain number of fates if you have bad luck...

That was me playing a late April Fool's joke....but then again this IS SE we're talking about.

I'm hoping the lag in dungeons will be lessoned and things will return to a bit of pre-patch normal stability. And words and such. *absconds with yarn*

Lets hope this one actually fixes the problem...

Since they didn't detail the maintenance note, it may not be for the lag issue specifically...
It's very seldom that I notice this lag myself, but when it does happen to me, it happens to everyone else in the same instance too...
Usually I just hear one or two persons with issues in the instance...

It's probably the lag and other issues like this:

No you are doing it wrong, whenever SE nerf something they say it has been "adjusted", whenever they do something that is a positive thing then they tell you properly ie increase/decrease.

The maintance is probably just a preparation for the PS4 Beta and a "normal" maintance
but most likely not to solve (the) lag.

Hmmmm... I just wonder what will happen when all these new ps4 ppl log in. lol

I doubt its going to be the only thing they fix, but its definitely the main reason.

The dev post yesterday explained that they've been adjusting the DF Servers on the fly rather than taking the game down for maintenance, so this one is most likely more for the two bugs posted above.
