Don\u2019t forget the Minstrel&#8217;s Ballad: Sphene&#8217;s Burden\u2014because what&#8217;s a new patch without a trial that has us banging our heads against the keyboard? And for those who relish re-running content, rejoice! The replayability of main scenario quests is now a thing\u2014because who doesn\u2019t want to suffer through the same plot twists again with slightly different battle mechanics?

This chaotic alliance raid is here to ensure maximum chaos, forcing you and your battle classes through 120 minutes of dodge-or-die mechanics, endless AoEs, and wipe-inducing void monstrosities. Forget cozy new allied society quests or replaying your main scenario quests \u2014 this is for the masochists who laugh in the face of unhinged mechanics. And if you think you\u2019re escaping with a sense of accomplishment, remember it\u2019s all for a few measly tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Feature<\/td><td>Details for Final Fantasy XIV Online<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Raid Name<\/td><td>The Cloud of Darkness (Chaotic)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Level<\/td><td>100, Chaotic Difficulty<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Party Composition<\/td><td>24 players \u2014 6 Tanks, 6 Healers, 12 DPS<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Objective<\/td><td>Survive the Queen of the Void\u2019s wrath<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Time Limit<\/td><td>120 minutes (you\u2019ll feel every second)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mechanics<\/td><td>AoE spam, chaos mechanics, and all the wipes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Expected Patch<\/td><td>7.15<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lore<\/td><td>Void queen with a grudge, ready to wreck you<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Loot<\/td><td>Extra tokens for new players (small consolation)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FF XIV 7.1 \u2013 Other Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1792\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Patch-7.1-Byakko-trial.webp\" alt=\"FFXIV Hall of the Novice update Patch 7.1\" class=\"wp-image-17280\" title=\"Epiccarry\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Patch-7.1-Byakko-trial.webp 1792w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Patch-7.1-Byakko-trial-770x440.webp 770w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Patch-7.1-Byakko-trial-768x439.webp 768w, https:\/\/epiccarry.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Patch-7.1-Byakko-trial-1536x878.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1792px) 100vw, 1792px\" \/><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You get new training in Hall of the Novice for beginners to prepare for big battles.
