At the following time, we will be performing maintenance on all FINAL FANTASY XI worlds to accompany the version update and the implementation of "A Shantotto Ascension - The Legend Torn, Her Empire Born," the third and the final in a series of three add-on scenarios for FINAL FANTASY XI. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XI will be unavailable.

Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.
