The latest update for Final Fantasy XIV adds new quests for players to complete. Patch 6.15 also introduces a new mount.

New Quests

Before anything, beast tribe quests in Final Fantasy XIV are now known as tribal quests. That said, there are new Arkasodara tribal main quests that players can complete. The first one is called “Hippos Born to Run'' and completing this will not only unlock the other quests in the chain but the Arkasodara daily quests as well.

It is worth noting that the quests in Arkasodara employ an automatic level adjustment system known as quest sync. What this means is that the difficulty of battles will be adjusted to the player’s current job and class levels.

Those who love Hildibrand will be happy to know that he is back in Patch 6.15 with more adventures. Players can find him at the Radz-at-Han on the isle of Thavnair.

Patch 6.15 offers other new things as well. One of the most notable is the Hippo Cart Mount, which can be acquired by gaining enough reputation and Pana currency from the Arkasodara.
