The trailer showcases many epic battles and some impressive boss monsters as well. Assault on Balaurea will raise the level cap to 55, and provide massive new regions and 8 new instances to explore for FFXI Gil. In-game pets that can help you craft and store inventory items will also be introduced. And in the ever-growing trend to support social media, the update will allow you to post screens directly to Facebook through the games user interface.
To bring everyone up to speed, 2.0 will see the Elyos and Asmodians doing their share of invading by taking up residence in the Balaur homeland of Balaurea. Within Balaurea are natural windstreams that dont use up the flight timer and new enemies that will call for a level cap boost to 55. You can also expect the usual assortment of cheap gil, skill, quest, and UI updates along with the big stuff. Another new significant feature are pets that will actually help the player out by alerting the presence of someone from the opposing faction, creating an item, holding onto your goods, a combination of services, or creeping you out with the mask from Scream. ]
