Final Fantasy 14 Patch 6.57 Gives Raiders Good News
The latest update to Final Fantasy 14, Patch 6.57, brought relief to many high-end raiders, as the update removed the weekly lockout on both entering and obtaining loot from the Pandaemonium: Anabaseios (Savage) raid tier. The update also gave Final Fantasy 14 players more opportunities to get gear, as the weekly cap on Allagan Tomestones of Comedy was doubled.
The update arrived amid a busy February in the game. To start the month, the annual Final Fantasy 14 Valentione's Day event kicked off in the city of Gridania. Until February 21, players who participate in Eorzea's version of Valentine's Day will be rewarded with the Love Heart emote and the Valentione's Heart Chair housing item.

Activities such as The Hunt, and completing FATEs in certain areas, were among the criteria. The Moogle Treasure Trove concludes on March 11 and will have a follow-up event at a later date.
