Final Fantasy XIV?s next major patch series starts soon and ahead of another major update, FFXIV Patch 6.5, Growing Light, received its preliminary patch notes. As usual, we're getting our first bulleted-style list of changes and rewards coming to the MMO.


A lot of this stuff you may already know thanks to recent FFXIV Live Letters, but Growing Light has some of us a little more antsy than usual. As the last few patches lead the way to Dawntrail (https://www.destructoid.com/final-fantasy-xiv-dawntrail-reveal-summer-2024-square-enix/), I'm holding my magnifying glass up to every little detail. That includes the meaningless stuff, too. Like my growing pile of housing junk.

I'm buying these flowers day one, if you know you know.


Anyway, this isn't the complete version of the FFXIV patch notes, those should launch next week, on October 2. Until then, let's hit the TLDWTLL (too long didn't watch the Live Letter, duh) and cover the preliminary update.


FFXIV patch notes for Growing Light, 6.5



New Main Scenario quests, beginning with 'Seeking the Light'


Myths of the Realm alliance raid, Thaleia


Additional Bicolor Gemstone rewards at zone vendors


More seeds for flower pots, aquarium fish, orchestrion rolls added


Triple Triad Cards for Halone, Nophica, Nymeia, and Althyk


New Island Sanctuary materials, structures, areas, and rank 20


Hairstyles for Hrothgar and Viera, finally


Faux Hollows ditches Zurvan for Thordan Unreal


More emotes, housing items, minions, and mounts


Lynx of Righteous Fire and Lynx of Fallen Shadow drop increase


Sacks of Nuts can be traded for Divine Twine and Divine Shine



And that's enough, I don't have the time to do the rest. Kidding. In FFXIV 6.5, there's still a ton more the notes only loosely list out, but some of its smaller details already guarantee my attention. I'm pumped the Omega-F and Omega-M attire kicked the silly gender lock, and I'm ready for the new Wondrous Tails rewards.

I love that annoyed, half-asleep fox. I'll make time somewhere in new extreme trial farming sessions to snag a pair of Faux Fox earrings. Right now, the only details Square Enix shared was that they come from Khloe's Gold, Silver, or Bronze Certificates somehow.


At any rate, we'll have our how-to answers soon. The FFXIV 6.5 patch notes are live over on the Lodestone (https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/91118b14eb8b1d98681a0dc5cd8c6249ca71b9f0) and should receive another round of details as the servers go offline next week.
