What's broken? Maintenance notes make no mention of 'fixing' anything.
Maintenance 4 of 7 days in a week is a bit excessive and a 'new' trend that is occurring here. This has been getting worse since the introduction to 2.0.5 and server transfers.

In order to address high server stress, we will be performing maintenance on all Worlds at the following time.

Really then? They're not going to go into detail (very few if any developers have) when most people playing the game only cares that it works not how it works - only the XIV community seems to be the ones that want every intricate detail about absolutely everything SE did and does.

It's at 2PM in Japan...lol

JP prime time is way later than that.

to me this feels like a targeted maint to reduce server stress on the night of a currency reset........
the sad thing is there's f2p games that would compensate players with in game items for having this much maint,yet we get nothing and we pay lol....

It is however in the ToS that SE may take servers down for any reason and for any amount of time for maint. We ALL agreed to this upon registration.

And not just F2P games:



Though admittedly, the WoW servers were in terrible condition at launch and for several months afterwards.
