Final Fantasy XI Newsletter Issue 29


Players have been testing their mettle in dungeons of their own design ever since the introduction of Moblin Maze Mongers in late December. Challenging their own dungeons in new and exciting ways, like notorious monster hunting, engaging in new forms of synthesis regimes, or simply exterminating large swarms of foes, adventurers seem to be enjoying the new system!
The community site forums have been abuzz with strategies and brainstorming. Players are devising was to maximize the marbles and experience points they earn, as well as experimenting with various Maze Vouchers and Runes to earn new exclusive equipment!
Check out Moblin Maze Mongers today and find out what all the excitements about!
Ever had a bit of time to spare, but not quite enough to participate in a normal leveling part? Or for a change of pace, just wanted to chill out and indulge in some light-hearted gaming with friends and fellow linkshell members? If you answered in the affirmative to at least one of the above questions, then Fields of Valor is just what the doctor ordered. For a small fraction of your time (friend optional), you can enjoy fuss-free yet rewarding adventuring.
Get more out of each Vana'dielian day with Fields of Valor!
It's a great time to be an adventurer because these two new exhilarating events are just the tip of the iceberg! Don't forget to utilize the Return Home to Vana'diel campaign when you're ready to jump back into the chocosaddle!
