FFXIV Slates Beastmaster Limited Job for 7.5x Update, Introduces Crucible of the Unbroken

Development resources were redirected to prioritize the capture-and-command class, delaying the next Blue Mage update.

Overview

  • Patch 7.5 arrives April 28, with Beastmaster confirmed for a subsequent 7.5x patch rather than the initial release.
  • Beastmaster is a limited job modeled after Blue Mage, launching at level 1 with a level 50 cap as optional side content outside standard endgame.
  • Players wield an axe and shield, can capture up to 50 monsters through solo play, and may field three tamed beasts at once with unique abilities.
  • Crucible of the Unbroken is a new single‑player duty tied to the job, with optional rankings and substantial content confirmed by Naoki Yoshida; any roguelike interpretation is based on visuals and not officially stated.
  • Unlocking requires a level 50 Disciple of War or Magic, ownership of the Dawntrail expansion, and completion of the A Realm Reborn 2.0 main scenario.
