But that will change when patch 3.1 hits, which is set to bring a ton of new activities to the game.<\/p> <p>One of the biggest additions is the Diadem area, which is basically a free roaming zone that can be played solo or with friends. There&#8217;s also new story missions, new Gold Saucer games, two additional dungeons, extra Vanu Vanu tribe quests, primal encounters (a reworked Knights of the Round fight from the main scenario quest), a 24-man raid similar to the Crystal Tower series (Void Ark), and a ton of quality of life adjustments.<\/p> <p>I really dig how much they&#8217;ve changed boss fights in dungeons over the past year or so, and the Pharos Sirius hard mode fights look pretty amazing. What I&#8217;m most excited for however is the Void Ark, which will be really easy to pick up and play.<\/p> <p><\/iframe><\/p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":174281,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"article_type":"","gamurs_wordpress_blocks_hide_tags":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"\"\"","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false},"categories":[395,1,97,567,101,137],"tags":[336,853,9673],"internal-label":[],"invoiceable_action":[],"article_type":[],"coauthors":[{"id":8,"display_name":"Chris Carter","user_login":"Chris Carter","user_nicename":"chris-carter"}],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n<title>Final Fantasy XIV&#039;s patch 3.1 will once again feature Knights of the Round &#8211;
