FFXIV New Patch 7.2: What New Content Will You Experience In This Large Patch? - In-Game & Quality Of Life Changes
Since Final Fantasy 14 launched its own Dawntrail expansion last summer, players’ opinions and comments on it have been in an unstable state: at first, the content in the new expansion brought a lot of freshness to the players, but since late July, players have begun to be dissatisfied with the speed of introducing new content, and feel that it can’t keep up with the speed of players’ exploration.
But in the spring of 2025, this situation will improve, because on March 25th FFXIV will launch its own Patch 7.2, called Seekers of Eternity, which will bring a lot of new content and game improvements to players, such as new dungeons, trials, major updates to PVP, and large-scale new exploration content.
From a lot of information leaked so far, it can be seen that Seekers of Eternity strives to provide some new playable content for players with different play styles. This guide will introduce you to what new game content you will experience in the upcoming Patch 7.2 based on some information released by Square Enix and leaked by the player community.
In-Game
Like previous major patches for FF14, Patch 7.2 will continue the game’s main story quests and expand on some of the events introduced in the previous Dawntrail. The most exciting thing for players may be the addition of a new dungeon, The Underkeep, and some new mechanics and challenges will also be added to the game with the addition of this new dungeon.
In addition, the new Trial Recollection will provide players with two difficulties, Normal and Extreme, giving high-level players another opportunity to test their characters’ abilities against powerful enemies. Similarly, the most proud raid content in Final Fantasy 14 has also received a major expansion: The Arcadion - Cruiserweight has been added.
This new raid series will be launched first in Normal difficulty and is expected to be opened to Savage difficulty for players with higher abilities a week later. You can expect to experience very complex combat mechanics and some high-intensity combat in it, as the setting of this raid is one of the most difficult content in the game so far.
It is also worth noting that Hells’ Kier (Suzaku) will return to the game as Unreal Trial, which may bring a nostalgic but very fresh gaming experience and challenge to some old players.
The Occult Crescent, a new wild exploration area expected to be added in Patch 7.25 on May 27, has aroused great interest from players. The design of this large multiplayer game mode is actually very similar to Eureka and Bozja in Dawntrail. It will take players to a mysterious island in the Shades Triangle and provide some large-scale boss stations, a raid content with up to 48 players to explore in a group, and a progression system that encourages exploration.
Players will increase their Knowledge Level in The Occult Crescent so that they can challenge more difficult content. However, it must be mentioned that this operation is somewhat risky, because at higher Knowledge Levels, once you experience death in it and are not resurrected by other players in time, the experience points and FFXIV Gil you earn in it will be lost.
If you use Phantom Job system, you will use exclusive and unique job abilities in this explorable area. At the beginning of exploration, only Freelancer jobs are available, but as you explore in it, you can unlock more Phantom Jobs, such as Geomancer, Ranger, Time Mage, Berserker, and Cannoneer.
Compared to The Occult Crescent, Cosmic Exploration may be launched earlier, expected in Patch 7.21 on April 22, and it introduces a new mode designed for in-game crafters and gatherers. This new cooperative activity will allow players to develop new planets over time: you need to start by building a base, and then expand the entire planet under the progress of tasks and time.
Note that the progress of each server is unique and also provides players with single-player and team activities. At the same time, some special rewards, Star Contributor system, and a large amount of FFXIV Gil will also be added to increase your interest in this new mode. This is very beneficial for players who like to craft in the game and strive to get all the collectibles.
Quality Of Life Changes
Not only has Patch 7.2 changed the content available to players, but the quality of life provided to players has also undergone some changes, such as the ability to sort food, potions, and sprints by players, so as to facilitate a more seamless and smooth gaming experience.
A new fuel color, Metallic Cobalt Green, has also been added, as well as a new set of crafting gear to facilitate the smooth implementation of Cosmic Exploration. In addition, Duty Support system will also include The Sunken Temple of Qarn, making it easier for single players to experience this interesting dungeon with NPC allies.
In terms of combat, some melee DPS jobs will receive some damage buffs, but Dawntrail’s newly introduced Job Pictomancer will receive some nerfs to ensure the balance of the entire game. For PVP, Series 8 will take over from the soon-to-be-ended Series 7, so players may need to claim any remaining rewards in Series 7 before the official release of the patch on March 25.
With the current release of Final Fantasy 14’s Patch 7.2 and subsequent minor patches, Square Enix has begun to listen to players and maintain a steady update cadence in order to rekindle player interest in the game.
But whether these new additions can maintain player engagement is still worth thinking about. Regardless, with the next chapter of Dawntrail and this new patch, players will have a lot to look forward to. I wish you a happy gaming!

FFXIV Little Ladies’ Day: How To Complete This Event?
Hello, players! Final Fantasy 14 patch 7.2 will be officially launched in late March, right around the corner, right? But before that, the annual Little Ladies’ Day also debuted as scheduled.
As the most romantic month in December, Little Ladies’ Day occupies nearly half of March. The specific time of this event is from March 3, 2025 to March 17, 2025. Maybe after this event, patch 7.2 will be officially launched.
What Is Little Ladies’ Day?
Little Ladies’ Day is a traditional festival in Eorzea in the game. The prototype should be from Hinamatsuri in Japan, also known as Doll’s Day or Girl’s Day. Some coincidences are that International Women’s Day is also within the date of this interactive event. And this festival in the game comes from the legend of a princess imprisoned in a palace in the background of the game.
Every year, various events are held in the game to celebrate Little Ladies’ Day. This year, the organizers decided to launch a new idol, Prince Seneschal. But due to a problem with his costume, Prince Seneschal disappeared before the event.
As a contestant and former winner of Little Ladies’ Day fashion show competition, Marabel she asked Warrior of Light to help Prince Seneschal understand the role he needs to play. Prince Seneschal is very distressed about what a butler is, and Warrior of Light needs to help him ask various NPCs to solve his problems. This is the main quest line of this event.
After helping Prince Seneschal solve his problems, he successfully performed on stage, and Songbird trio also appeared. Then there are some embarrassing idol performance clips. Finally, as a thank you for helping him, Warrior of Light received a replica costume. You must have guessed that this is the biggest reward of this event, of course, in addition to this, there are also some EXP and Final Fantasy XIV Gil.

After the interaction, choose the answer you want. Finally, talk to Marabel while Picot prepares for the show. Finally, return to Steps of Nald and talk to Royal Seneschal (X:10.5, Y:8.6), then talk to Picot to complete the quest.
During the show, Picot will show off his newly designed suit, becoming the newest pop star at the festival. Songbird trio makes a brief cameo appearance, and they express their deep impression of Picot.

Seneschal Prince suit is a replica of the suit worn by Picot in the cutscene, with two dye slots for each piece to customize. The suits awarded in this event are different from previous ones.
