FF14's new roguelike mode's leaderboards were accidentally encouraging players to min-max all the fun out of it, so it'll be 'postponing the start of Crucible Rankings'
Square Enix has postponed the start of rankings for Final Fantasy XIV's new roguelike mode, the Crucible of the Unbroken, due to issues with combat balance and gameplay mechanics.
