Reive Adjustments and New Alter Egos

If the February version update for Final Fantasy XI wasn't already overflowing with new and adjusted content, Square Enix has announced upcoming plans to revise and add to Seekers of Adoulin Reive system. In addition to new Colonization and Lair Reives to be introduced in the new zone, Outer Ra’Kaznar, adjustments will be made to the Wildskeeper Reives. Players will be notified when the battle behavior of Naakuals has been changed, and new NPCs will be stationed outside of each to give reports on their current HP levels, so as to let players avoid entering battlefields too late to earn credit.

For Trust enthusiasts, February's version update will introduce four new faces to the already vast repertoire of Trust NPCs to aid you in battle. After fulfilling various requirements, fan favorites Prishe, Ulmia, Iron Eater, and Gadalar will be available to join you in combat!

Happy for the new changes to Reives or just elated over the line-up of new Trust NPCs? Let us know about it over on the ZAM forums!
