《最终幻想 XIV》调整驯兽师试炼场模式并公布首赛季排名起始日
Final Fantasy XIV makes tweaks to Beastmaster’s Crucible mode and sets a start date for its first ranking season
《最终幻想 XIV》本周补丁调整了驯兽师（Beastmaster）限定职业的试炼场（Crucible of the Unbroken）难度保存、自动补员与得分。试炼场首赛季排名将于 10 月 25 日开启，玩家需选第三难度并勾选参与，服务器排名在官网专页公布，结束日后续通知。
Assuming you’re not chasing a relic weapon, a top-tier crafting tool, or some of those raid clears in Final Fantasy XIV, you’re probably attempting to push through the Beastmaster limited job’s Crucible of the Unbroken. If that’s the case, then the latest patch dished out this week has some things you’ll care about, both in terms of adjustments and for the mode’s first season.
In terms of Crucible adjustments, those include a Crucible board’s difficulty being temporarily saved, while the difficulty used in a previous attempt will be made the default until logout; automatic filling of beast teammates if it consists of three or fewer members; and increases to the score for defeating enemies and the Sleepless Survival score bonus. Readers will recall this as the balance patch that Creative Studio III referenced before.
This aligns nicely with the start date for Crucible’s first ranked season, which will be Sunday, October 25th. Players who care to climb this leaderboard must select Third Degree difficulty and tick a box that confirms they want to participate in rankings, while the current standings for a server will be published on a dedicated page on the MMO’s site. An end date for Season 1 will be announced later.
As for the rest of the patch, that otherwise begins same-region player matchmaking for Japanese data centers as promised and a lineup of bug fixes for the Beastmaster and the Crucible of the Unbroken. So really this patch is almost entirely Beastmaster focused.
