We're not sure exactly when Final Fantasy XIV's large December update will be going live, but we do know that one of its major inclusions will be the addition of notorious monsters. The first of these powerful beasts has already been previewed, but a new one is now being shown for all to see... not that it would be easy to miss the enormous Tarbh Uisge. One of the last great buffalo, his mind has been eaten away through years of suppressive magics, leaving him as a bundle of violent rage.
Tarbh Uisge appears to be in the same category as the previously demonstrated Deadeyes in more ways than one. This great beast is linked to a levequest as well, but he also drops the same set of runestones as his contemporary. The Templar armor previewed alongside the buffalo, therefore, can be obtained by players slaying either beast and accumulating drops, which frees players to pursue both or neither as they see fit. Final Fantasy XIV should be releasing this newest opponent in the near future, which should yield a notable boon to everyone not trampled underfoot.

Will they be fixing the massive amount of suck at the same time? This is seriously one of the worst games I've ever played.

The November patch really improved a lot the things that had bothered me initially. Looking forward to seeing the full details on the December patch.

I'll see what's up in March. Better have some enjoyable quests by then that actually mean something to the world.

Looking forward to the PS3 reviews next year, see if the extra 6 months did much to de-suckify the game. Then again, considering hw much was wrong with it in the first place, I think they'd need at least 3 more years to fix it.
No reason at all to paly this now while theres glorious, engaging new questing to be done in WoW... unless you really like catgirls. :p

FFXIV has the potential to be an actual follow up XI. Problem is Squeenix will have to start listening to their players and.... wait for it.... maybe break away from their grand design.... So if your holding your breath invest in a tombstone now.... Blast you squeenix, I wanted to give you money... I really did....

Sweet, I'm really going to have fun not getting to see this in-game. Thanks Square Enix.
