Final Fantasy 14's latest raid race is over, but the contest hasn't been without its drama, as one of the players in the initial winning team was caught red-handed using an unauthorized plugin.
Earlier this week, Patch 7.11 rolled out in the MMORPG, adding the new level 100 Futures Rewritten Ultimate raid (or FRU) to the mix for any players looking for a real challenge.
So began the race to be the first to clear it, and in the last few hours, it appeared the winner had been declared when a team called GRIND shared screenshots of their victory.
However, fellow players were quick to notice that something was… off. In a now-deleted tweet, one GRIND member's screenshot showed a small, red dot in the center of their screen.
This, it was speculated, was evidence of the 'Pixel Perfect' plugin in action. Pixel Perfect Plus, for example, can help players better feel the distance between themselves and their foes, as well as display hitboxes for their player character and enemies.
