Final Fantasy XIV Online released a new update which makes changes to the gameplay experience. Patch 7.58 makes additions and adjustments to the Crucible of the Unbroken.
One of the big changes is that familiars already assigned to the team now remain when using the Recommended Team function. In the past, even when familiars were already assigned to the team, players who used the Recommended Team option would see all familiars in their team composition being overwritten. Hopefully with the update, when players challenge a board that allows for ten familiars and two familiars have already been selected for the party, then only the remaining eight slots should be filled with recommended selections.
Other changes include:
- When viewing the Team Composition window, familiar attributes listed now include both their synced beast rank and their original beast rank.
- When sorting by beast rank in the Master's Bestiary or Team Composition window, sorting is now based on the original beast rank of the familiar instead of its synced beast rank.
- When hovering the mouse over the crucible, items registered to the hotbar now display their help text.
- When using a gamepad or controller, selecting a crucible item and pressing the confirm button now displays the subcommands Use and Discard.
- When exiting the Crucible of the Unbroken, settings are now restored for familiars assigned to battlehorns prior to entry.
The new update also introduces same-region player matchmaking which you can read more about here. Check out the complete patch notes for update 7.58 here.
