So often cities are destroyed in MMOs and never seem to be actually fixed in any way. But that’s not the case in Final Fantasy XIV with the launch of the Ishgard Restoration content; now players will be able to hunt down materials, craft items, and ultimately help rebuild the Firmament through the use of crafting and gathering. Players contribute resources to a shared pool, which ultimately prompts special rebuilding events for crafters and gatherers as new structures are created around the landscape. And as a reward, you can get new minions, mounts, and even outfits and recipes for cosmetic purposes!
The patch also introduces the newest Ultimate content, the hardest fight currently in the game pitting players against the time-aspected primal Alexander as well as his component parts. It’s an open question of which team will make it to a world-first clear on Alexander (Ultimate), but you’ll want a skilled team and great gear to even make the attempt. Perhaps you could get some from a crafter… but no, they’ll all be rebuilding Ishgard. Oh well.Source: Official Site
