Welcome to

Eventide XI is designed for players who love classic Final Fantasy XI but don't want to commit to era-accurate grinding and years of camping while also avoiding a full easy-mode experience built around trusts and speed-running. Eventide XI strikes a middle ground, preserving the sense of accomplishment that old-school FFXI is known for: leveling together, camping NMs, and progressing with friends, while still embracing a power-fantasy where relic weapons are achievable in months, not years.

To achieve this, we've reworked core systems to remove frustration, not difficulty:

• Guaranteed loot systems — earn rewards through gameplay, not luck
• Force-pop HNMs — no more claim drama
• Improved EXP and party systems — for faster, smoother progression
• Harder fights — more mechanics, more teamwork, more fun
• Dynamis drops — expect to get 10–20 hundos each per run
• Less travel time — spend more time playing, not running
• And many more! — check the Custom Changes page for more info

If you love FFXI but want a version that fits your life without sacrificing challenge or community, Eventide XI is the experience you've been waiting for.
