Step Into Limbus
FINAL FANTASY XI Development Team (10/03/2005)


Did Dynamis leave you thirsty for another challenge? We bring you "Limbus," coming in the October version update! Upon the completion of certain requirements, players will be able to enter one of the two mysterious new areas that comprise Limbus: "Temenos" and "Apollyon." Check the version update details in October for more information!

Also, a one-way door in the Grand Palace of Hu'Xzoi will become accessible from both sides for players who have advanced far enough through the "Chains of Promathia" story.

Experience Point Bonus Items

These items are designed to help those who wish to earn a little extra experience from defeating easy opponents, rather than for use in extended party play.

The bonus points provided by these new additions may not be noticeable at first, but taking advantage of the bonus every day will eventually make a substantial difference.

The new items will be available through the exchange of conquest points, making them accessible to a wide range of players. Talk to your nearest conquest guard after the version update and see how this adventuring accessory can help you!

EDIT: Oops, forgot this.

Really, REALLY, looking forward to see how the Experience Point Bonus Items will work. :excited:

Ditto. Sounds interesting. Seeing as I've ditched DRK I'm assuming I won't be a high enough level to participate in Limbus any time soon, but oh well.

At the rate I play I'll NEVER get to that point. :D
