Players in Final Fantasy XIV randomly mutate into Super Saiyan and cause chaos. MeinMMO reveals what’s behind it.
Currently, it seems like everyone in Eorzea is becoming a Super Saiyan – or at least something similar. The latest patch 6.5 for FFXIV has not only brought new quests and dungeons, but also some bugs have crept in.
Players are receiving completely random and surprising buffs and abilities that put them in a true power rush. As if they suddenly became superheroes overnight.

Uncontrollable buffs cause chaos in Eorzea
What kind of bugs are these? All these curious events began with the introduction of the latest patch Growing Light
. This patch not only brought new story quests but also a fresh dungeon, a challenging raid, and the final alliance raid of the Endwalker
expansion into the game.
Players were surprised to find that they suddenly received buffs and abilities that didn’t match their respective jobs at all. These buffs are so absurd that they completely turn the gameplay experience in Final Fantasy XIV upside down. A Ninja and a Dark Knight suddenly received the Dual-Cast
from the Red Mage, which is only meant for the Red Mage.
But that’s not all. A White Mage, Warrior, and Dark Knight suddenly received the Formless-Fist-Buff
from the Monk. Similarly unexpectedly, a Summoner, Sage, and Samurai received the Bard ability Blast Arrow
, which is normally only available to the Bard. Mind you, there were neither a Red Mage nor a Monk or a Bard present in the group.
The list is even longer. Here you can see the screenshot that DeathofTheHeavens posted on Reddit:
It seems as if the jobs in Eorzea have temporarily forgotten their identities and are wildly mixing abilities.
In another Reddit thread, players report many other bugs concerning buffs and abilities. Dancers or Black Mages are currently experiencing a real surprise. The abilities, which are normally only active for a short time and grant them power, suddenly last throughout the entire fight.
In one fight, a dancer even manages to perform Technical Step
an incredible 248 times. The ability actually has a cooldown of two minutes. Apparently, these uncontrollable buffs and abilities have truly exceeded all limits.
The curious buffs in Final Fantasy XIV have put players in Eorzea into a true power frenzy. The question remains how long this surprising Super Saiyan status
will last in Eorzea. Presumably, Square Enix will fix the bugs soon.
