Final Fantasy 14 has had its latest patch, featuring big changes to several Jobs including Paladin, Dragoon, Dancer, and more.
As the patch notes explain, update 6.08 makes some adjustments to these Jobs by buffing a number of their abilities. For example, Paladin has had its Spirits Within potency increased from 250 to 270, while Samurai has had its Ogi Namikiri skill buffed from 800 to 900 in potency.
The buffs range from Tank, Healer, Melee DPS, and Ranged DPS Jobs, so no class has been left out of this significant patch.
Alongside patch 6.08, Square Enix has released the long-awaited Oceania data centre in Final Fantasy 14 which will be the first step in expanding the global server capacity, as well as combat congestion.
