It's time for the reset recap! We've got a live letter to look forward to later this week where we get our first look at what patch 7.1 will be bringing. What is your prediction on what we're going to see?

How have you been getting ready for the release of 7.1? Have you gotten everything you want from the current patch yet? Let us know how your week in Eorzea has gone!

I've had a quiet week this week. Haven't really ticked much off the to do list other than gaining a few levels on my white mage. Should hit 80 this week and then I can try the 80 poetics weapon @pasty@raru.re suggested for my Aerith glam ๐Ÿ˜Š Did manage to get two non CT Alliance Raids this week though! (Void Ark and Mhach... but at least they're not CT!)

For 7.1 I'm going to assume we get our first tribal quests (I've already forgotten what they're rebranded to now ๐Ÿ˜…), and I reckon it'll be the Pelupelu. Pretty sure they announced them as one of the groups during the DT media tour (I could be wrong there) and given their involvement and proximity with Tuliyollal they seem the most likely choice.

Vague spoilers on DT belowNot sure what to expect story wise. I feel there's going to be a rebuilding Tural post invasion plot somewhere but also an exploring the idea of intershard travel plot as well, since we already know Shtola is trying to get back to the First. Given Dawntrail was all about Wuk Lamat and her journey, I feel it would make sense for the rebuilding of Tural to happen around you rather than you directly participating, since again, that should be Wuk's journey, not yours.

So as we progress through the DT patch content you see the results of what happened with Alexandria, see people picking up the pieces and rebuilding their lives independently of the WoL's involvement. And as we do our thing with the intershard stuff you can see the zones progressively change (since we already have a precedent for that in the final DT zone). Might be new structures being built, might be the use of electrope if any got brought back, might be people from different zones mingling together. Just feel it would make the world feel a bit more alive.

@Drusenija Savage reclears progressing as normal, even managed to help a friend's static by covering a spot with my alt a few times (I love having an alt to avoid impacting loot, despite effort).

Got only 3 more jobs left to level: war at 90, gnb and drg both at 95, shouldn't be too long now. Leveling MNK on my alt in parallel, was about L50 a week or so ago, now nearing L80.

Also just picked up a 3rd HW relic to progress - BLM, this time together with my BF and another friend.
