Is there a solid date for new patch with story content?

That is question. Wondering when to start again. Also when does Halloween event start and end?

Nope, but I think it's rumored to be the 10th. (That's a Tuesday, I assume.) They have said early-ish November.

The Halloween event already started and ends the 4th.

They are ramping up doing the content previews on the lodestone which means it is going to be very soon. I'd suspect within the first two weeks of November.

I'm completely oblivious, but also want to get back into this. Is now a bad time? should I wait for this patch?

When was the last time you played? If you cleared all of the story content in Heavensward and you're looking for more you might as well wait, as nothing new has really been added since. Alexander was pretty much the last big update the game got, so if you're looking for new content beyond that it will come in 3.1.

Early November.

Halloween event is already going on.

Just got a LG 34" 21:9 3440x1440 monitor yesterday and FF14 looks fantastic on it.

Ah, I see. I'll join up again before the 31st so I can get that sweet flying broom mount.

Man, feels like such a long time since Heavensward came out even though it's only been a few months or so. Happy it's finally getting a new content patch.

There's a developer livestream this weekend which will probably be the last preview for 3.1 and most likely announce a release date.
