Participate in the upcoming Cloud Data Center Stress Test from 21 to 28 November and assist the Final Fantasy Team in expanding their server infrastructure.

To cope with the increasing demand for server capacity, Square Enix is working on creating a cloud data center solution that would allow players to access the game from anywhere in the world.

A cloud data center is a virtual server structure that is hosted on the internet, rather than on physical hardware. This means that anyone can connect to the game without being limited by their real life location. Cloud data centers also offer potential improvements to the game’s performance and stability.

In order to test how the server will do in a public service environment, players will be able to participate in the Cloud Data Center Stress Test, and give their feedback to the FFXIV team. The test will run from Tuesday, 21 November, to Tuesday, 28 November. For now, the server is located in North America (East Coast), but players from all over the world can participate. Keep in mind, though, that you might experience latency if you are not located in North America. 

In order to participate, you must create a new character on the Cloud Data Center. The Data Center selection screen can be accessed from the title screen, where you will have to choose the NA Cloud DC (Beta) - CloudTest01 or CloudTest02, and then create a character to start the game!

Characters created on this server will receive 50 million Gil, as well as a copy of Tales Of Adventures: Shadowbringers, and Tales of Adventure III (level 80), for each job to instantly access as many in-game features as possible. You will be able to explore every content existing in the game, there are no limits!

Keep in mind, that all characters created on this Cloud Server, will be deleted when the test ends. 

If you have any feedback regarding the stress test, you can post on the official forum threads.
For further details, please head over to the official information post.

The Cloud Data Center Stress test is a unique opportunity for players to experience the game in a different way, and to contribute to the improvement of the server infrastructure. By participating in the test, players will help Square Enix evaluate the feasibility and performance of the cloud data center solution, which could potentially enhance the game’s quality and accessibility for players around the world.

The test is open to everyone, regardless of region or platform. So don’t miss this chance to join the test and have fun with the FFXIV community!

      By Neviriah
      No matter if you are a new Pictomancer player or just want to refresh your knowledge about the class, this updated Job Guide for patch 7.05 is for you!
      The Pictomancer is one of two exciting new jobs that were introduced with Final Fantasy XIV's current expansion, Dawntrail. Many players have either switched main to this unique class or leveled it as an alt job. However, mastering the Pictomancer can be quite challenging because of its special mechanics and different playstyle. That is why we are excited to share a new video guide, made by one of our content creators, Juliacare, with you. The guide covers all essential details about the job, including optimal rotations at Level 100 and more!
      You can view the video below:
      For players who prefer a written guide, we got you covered as well! Our updated Pictomancer guide here on Icy Veins' FFXIV section provides a comprehensive overview of the job, including its skills, rotations, and tips for maximizing your performance:

      FFXIV - Naoki Yoshida Hints at Upcoming 24-Man Savage Raids
      By Neviriah
      Yoshi-P revealed plans at Gamescom 2024 for more challenging content in FFXIV, including a new raid in the upcoming Dawntrail patch and hints of a 24-Man Savage Raid.
      During Gamescom 2024, PCGames.com interviewed Naoki Yoshida, who revealed that he plans to make combat more difficult. Dawntrail has already experienced big improvements in that regard, with more distinct mechanics and designs, and Yoshi-P hopes to keep that momentum going in the future.
      The upcoming patch of FFXIV will include the Dawntrail Alliance Raid, and Yoshi-P has also mentioned a 24-player Savage Raid! His plan is to continuously create more diverse dungeons and raids, to always challenge players with new mechanics, and to force us to develop new fighting strategies.
      The upcoming alliance raid will have standard difficulty, but Yoshi-P is convinced that groups will wipe at least three times on their first run! The idea was not to make it harder, but rather to give a more engaging experience for raiders.
      Not much was mentioned about the savage version, although he did suggest that the boss will be completely different. So, potentially entirely separate content? It is also possible that the savage alliance raid will be linked to a new instance similar to Bozja, which would explain the boss being different from the actual normal alliance raid.
      Further details about this will be delivered soon, as both the normal Alliance raid and the savage one will release with 7.1! This patch will also welcome the new Ultimate Raid!
