Complete guide to FFXIV 6.25 patch with new dungeons, weapons, and tribal quests explained
Patch 6.25 Overview
Final Fantasy XIV’s 6.25 update has officially launched, bringing substantial new content to the Endwalker expansion.
This intermediate patch focuses on expanding existing systems rather than introducing major narrative developments. Players can dive into the continuation of the Manderville weapon series, engage with the newly available Omicron tribe through gathering quests, and experience the innovative variant and criterion dungeon system that adapts to different playstyles.

Moreover, certain attributes will also be adjusted to compensate for the disparity of strength between certain roles, alleviating the need for dedicated tanks, DPS, or healers.
6.X – THE CRITERION DUNGEON, ANOTHER SIL’DIHN SUBTERRANE, HAS BEEN ADDED.
Whereas variant dungeons are more casual, story-based experiences, criterion dungeons are more challenging duties that require a party comprised of 1 tank, 1 healer, and 2 DPS.
