Emergency Maintenance

[kaworutabris]

So, patch gets loaded. Japanese servers come up. NA and EU stay down. Then, few hours later emergency maintenance. Hmm... I wonder what exploit the Japanese servers found that needed to be fixed

[Surian]

Not sure, but whatever it is, 9 hours of maintenance is a little excessive for two new emotes and one beast tribe...

Woke up this morning thinking i could play some FFXIV, found it to be stuck in maintenance.

It was supposed to be from 4 am to 10 am, it's close to 1 pm already.

My bet is that they forgot that B ranks dropped Bloody Logs and that people were mass-farming them all up now 5 seconds in between.

My bet is that they forgot that <redacted>

Oh, I didn't think of that...

Good call on the logs haha, I saw 5 second respawn rate on B-Ranks and just stroked my chin for awhile. I'm sure that's where the problems happening. Or maybe they didn't aim the /pet emote correctly

I like your idea about the /pet emote going wrong, haha. Would run around and "pet" all my friends ^^.

Can B ranks even drop books?

I think you missed some of the patch notes, there's more than that. There's one beast tribe as well as the allied beast tribes. Chocobo colouring, so that means need seeds and new crossbreeds.

Changes to the housing system and frontlines.

On top of that, they have to implement the features they addressed.

Can find it all here.

No

B rank never drop book unless its make accidentally dropped by this patch and they immediately close the server and fix it

By the way, I heard rumor they can't find any A or S Rank mobs at all on my server (one of my friends PT report me this) I guess this cause emergency maintenance for another 2 hours

B's are known to drop logs.

Don't forget that B Elites now don't drop Allied Seals. You have to have the papers from the board
