Though mid-patches like 6.25 are smaller than major content releases, there are plenty of things for players to look forward to in the update. The Gentleman Inspector Hildibrand Manderville’s absurd hijinks continue in this patch and evenconnect to theEndwalkerRelic Weapon quest, which will involve Hildibrand’s father, Godbert Manderville. A Tribal Questline involving the robotic Omicrons is also coming for gatherer jobs. Lastly, the Variant and Criterion dungeons–the Sil’dihn Subterrane and Another Sil’dihn Subterrane–arrive as well. The former dungeon provides a casual, branching story experience for between one and four players, while the latter is a challenging version of the Variant dungeons with both a normal and Savage mode.
