    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    you can just play the same job forever. i basically only tank. i think i have gnb/dk at cap, dancer near cap, and zero healers (because fuck healing) and a mix of other leveled guys purely from turning in random quests on the 'lowest level guy i can'. you can just continue where you left off...

    He was the hammer guy in the electric arena in praetorum. He was there doing research under giaus. The empire washed their hands of the retards who blew up the praetorum, like Nero. Nero had a history with garlond like he whined about in praetorum. When he was basically exiled or told to never...

    doing ravana on tier as Dk was a whole lot of fun :) the lyrics of some of the songs are interesting, some have lore bits in them. you're right about the music being uniquely nice. in my opinion, like the story/voice acting / game play / everything, the music only goes up in quality from HW >...

    I think the MSQ , which now requires you finish the crystal tower quest line, wants you to start this line: https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Legacy_of_Allag which is has a few steps then leads to unlocking the actual alliance raids for crystal tower...

    If you are set on skipping, maybe watch a recap once you beat ultima weapon. Heh maybe watch a recap first then skip till after ultima weapon first then play so you have more understanding of the quest goals.

    https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Collectables I mostly gather and I pretty much just used ultra rare fish to do my scrip to get enough skill to finish all the quests. I ended up using teamcraft to set up timers to know when the ultra rare fish in azys lla spawn. every few RL hours i'd...

    There are these little rowana booths in all the cities where you can turn in collectable items for yellow scrip, and scrip for gear. There may be an intro quest in....mor dona maybe? Note that I am mangling every name. One of the booths are in Limsa near trade row

    I just unlock them and sit on the "finish this" quest. Get completion if roulette deals it to me, or later with blue mage.

    yep ultimate weapon is the last ARR quest. the quests in between ARR and HW are when things start getting better IMO. a lot of folks consider the lady iceheart story and boss fight to be a big turning point.

    i felt like the hand holding went on a bit too long, but i will hand it to them that when you open a new game system (like the eureka magicka board for example) some npcs talk about how it works till you realllly understand it.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    oh yea, the game is pretty 'system/feature dense'. you constantly run into dudes with 'blue' quest markers. those 'unlock new game aspects' which can be new raids, new trials (stand alone boss fights), access to beast tribes (daily quest hubs), mini games (particularly in the gold saucer), or...

    it's not hard. the origional launch main story quest (and some other associated quests) are fetchy as fuck and the story, while some what interesting, drowns you in repetition to begin with. and some meh voice acting. but it lays the solid foundation for the story of hte following expansions...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    There are some good, and curt, recaps of arr if anyone does end up skipping. It can sum up the story so the later, better stories make sense. I dont understand the complaint about story being single player. Basically all storytelling is singeplaywr in video games and certainly mmos. Doing...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yea they need to slice it by like 80 percent of fetches. Arr msq is kind of slow and repetitive. They could narrate some 9f the trivial plot points and it would stay relevant. The plot comes together nicely though and its the same actual storyline the whole way through.

    I'm the oposite. I cant do alts because the idea of re doing quests over make my eyes roll back. I always preferred one manz many role systems. I do hear thst alt complaint a fair bit tho

    They all work. Some say gunbreaker does best dps, warrior is one trick pony, paladin is a bit tougher and dk is best main tank, but the difference is super marginal in overall tankiness and ability to do any content.

    the king mog fight kind of illsutrates how primals can be spun up based on faith, since it's so goofy you can tell the moogles made it. i'm disapointed there wasn't a namazu primal. i guess they're so goofy they don't even deserve one.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    yea they would do tremendously well to hire a team for ironing out the old slow shit and replace/smooth out quests. the number one complaint for new people who try out FF14 is that it's a drag in ARR, then everyone loves the rest. some post-drip-feed smoothing would always do the game well. they...

    Poetics go to 70. After that you need.... uhh revelation? Each expansion has a high level quest and tome hub. They tend to unlock toward the end. Mordana is the one for arr

    The only thing worth doing is Eureka armor if you like your class set. Or if you really love a relic for glamor. Otherwise quests and tombstones will gear you to 80

    yea i found folks on the alliance raids (crystal tower, void arc, Ivalace) to be as helpful as most other aspects of the game. The latest relic weapon (like epic weapon quests each expansion) has you go through and do each alliance raid like freaking 15 times. so people are used to new people...

    i want to say that they stopped escorts maybe mid heavensward? i know in stormblood and shadowbringers some guard will say like "we're on patrol. help me out here dawg" and the quest becomes "walk to point A" and when there or on the way there, monsters spawn, maybe with your boy. then you win...

    I second doing crystal tower as early as you can. They make uou do it later and the loot can't help you then.
