Hello Adventurers! We are once again canvasing memory lane, bringing you the back half of the dungeons of A Realm Reborn. From Patch 2.1 all the way to Patch 2.5. Let us regale you with times long past, back when these level 50 dungeons were once the height of difficulty! The heady salad days of Final Fantasy XIV dungeons where you would get three, three whole new dungeons to a patch! The good, the bad, and the puns that graced the required quests to open them, in this issue of the Carbuncle Chronicle.
