Ok-- the opening statement-- I simply love Island Sanctuary.
I mean-- I seriously do love Island Sanctuary. Did I already mention how much I'm loving the new Island Sanctuary content? I just got to Rank 10 today (which also unlocks flying) and I have to underline that the aerial views from admiring your hard work absolutely cannot be understated-- phenomenal.
And yes, darn right I made a freaking bloody video--
In addition, the FFXIV community have been absolutely epic in researching, gathering, and delivering concise accurate information on a massive number of elements for Island Sanctuary. For starters, the team at lalaachievements have created a fantastic animal materials and spawn chart (with incredibly accurate weather spawn times).
LucarioMagic over at reddit also made a great materials map
Yeah-- I'm happy with Island Sanctuary. There are a few elements that need work and a wider selection of further building developments are expected in the next sanctuary update in Patch 6.4 but for now-- I'm giddy happy with the content.
