This one's actually fun to do when you're raiding with friends because then you get the added bonus of ticking off someone who also knows where you live
1 important tip for new players is that if you plan to play a tank. everyone in the party will expect you to know the entire dungeon/Trial, even if your new. :D
That might vary from server to server, the little green sprout icon was enough to keep everyone nice and understanding while I learned paladin in dungeons I'd never done before on Omega! Just remember to give the party a heads up and ask for tips before bosses!
More like "this content is several years old and there are guides in every language, even klingon, but I'mma not look at any of that and just treat it like a tank/spank fight." Followed swiftly by "Why did we fail? the npc I was cleaving should have moved away". Read all of that as "REEEEEEEEEEEE FOOKEN STORYSKIP NOOBIESCUM".
@@gnarlyboyjai Yeah, I don't think it should have to be expected to look up a guide if you're new. Some boss fights like Baelsar's Wall actually spoil story beats if you watch the guide. If you're doing Savage content, you should probably find a guide. But for random dungeons, players should be able to enjoy the story the first time around. It's not too hard for older players to give advice either.
I think it's hilarious how the devs acknowledged the fact that going to Walking Sands every time is a pain so now they just toss a bunch of free teleports at you.
So, my friends and I all ended up in different cities when we started playing the game at the same time. We had 1 friend who had played a bit before, and he just had everybody jump into his Chocobo carriage and we went on a cross-continental road trip at level 1 to attune all 3 major cities and the stops in between them
i think one thing for new people is if someone in a dungeon that has experience with the game and is giving you a little advice. dont get upset with them they are just trying to make your life easier
I was working on my blm and we got a whm that wouldn't put regen on the tank and when I told them he said "I don't have to use regen, mind your own buisness"... I'm a whm main... I started a vote to kick and it passed.
I always appreciate people giving me a heads up with what's going to happen, I don't like being a hindrance to the group, and always inform people if I'm new to something, so if they're a vet, they can give me a quick run down on what they expect of me. I don't get why people get so uppity about being given advice aha
@Redeemed Very first thing I do in a dungeon is say hi in party chat and pay attention to for people who say hi back, usually they'll be a good party if they do respond. Also don't be afraid to enter dungeons more than once to get familiar with them, using Duty finder you'll get different parties and a chance to encounter someone that knows what they're doing. Sometimes it takes 1 run to learn a dungeon sometimes it takes a few runs to learn a dungeon. When you're using them to grind exp you're gonna spend alot of time in them.
Indeed it is. Ever since 2014, I have wore different kinds of glamour for my Lalafell ever week before raid time. My raid members expect it to be at this point. I have been a cat, dog, fat lion, naked, sonic, Mario, Elton john, Naruto, and etc.
For people starting out with their significant other, I would highly recommend starting in the same city even if it means picking up the wrong starting class, and then one of you switch to the class you truly want to play at level 15. I'm saying this because we wanted to be a black mage/white mage couple, and because of that so we ended up doing the first 15 levels separate. That wasn't fun. I should have started in Uldah and pick up Conjurer when I got to Gridania. Remember: one character can be every class in this game, and getting back to level 15 is not a huge hassle.
My fiance and I started off as arcanist due to the nature of being able to switch either a dps or healer, which was a good start off for us as he later became Summoner and I became Scholar. But I looked up guides as SCH sincw I was a dps for quite a bit.
Yeah. If you try to do everything, it's just too much XP. I started as a Conjurer, but decided to switch to a Gladiator when I became like 10 levels over the main quest requirements. Now, I play as a lvl 39 White Mage and lvl 35 Paladin while the main quest requires lvl 32 which is not too OP. Also, it's actually pretty fast-paced now because I can do solo content as a Paladin and find a dungeon group in seconds as a White Mage.
@@TheAccountant369 It's right outside the first dungeon. It has a leaf or a sprout icon on the map. It has a bunch of lessons in there and you should probably complete them all for your current class. Once you complete them then they'll give you a decent looking glamour set for the class you completed it with

The most important tip of them all is to unlock fast travel and let new player focus on activating the blue aether crystals around the world because at the beginning of the game it's locked until you attune i think 3 (correct me if am wrong) please give this comment a Like so new players can see it and thanks
For alt jobs, just run potd. I'm sorry about stormblood, as hoh isn't really worth doing if you're trying to reach lvl70 as fast as you can. I hope fates are worth clearing in shadowbringers
I learned this the "hard" way. I used to clear side quests in witcher 3 before the main quests(the "!" Is just annoying), tried to clear most of side quests in gridania(CNJ) ended up being lvl 17 and my MSQ is still lvl 10 or so.
I mean, I have all classes between 65-80, and the jobs that are under 80, I can achieve almost 2 levels in 1-2 hours. Frontline challenge, leveling, and alliance raid roulette. Fat doinks for xp.
@@yamabushi_nate7825 Surprises me how easily the game spells out how to do a role and sometimes you get people in lvl 50+ dungeons that don't know how to properly Tank.
I just started playing and I gotta say these are some of the nicest people I've ever met. I did a random fate with I guess a veteran player? And he could tell I was new! So when we finished it, he literally gave me 100k gil just to be nice! And then when I do a dungeon for the first time, they're very patient in explaining things to me and helping me keep up! I'm having a lot of fun and knowing how supportive everyone is makes me happy.
I wanted to add something that isn't actually obvious at all and one of my friends who started the game recently had this problem: You cannot do the job quest until you progress the main story beyond a certain point. I believe the job quest didn't pop up for him until he finished the Sylph portion of the MSQ, and he was level 38 by the time he got there because he has the Road to 60 buff and was doing leveling roulette every day with us. So yes, do your job quest ASAP (I kept telling him to make sure to check every chance he got), just be aware you need the MSQ completed beyond the level 20 quest.
I'd suggest adding to not misbehave. Unlike a lot of other online games, the GMs will snatch you away for misbehaving, up to & including bans or temp bans.
I once weard my hair in a similar way (no buns) and was being mocked for it. Worlds a dark place without creativity and kind hearts. Still, they look cool 😎
There are a bunch of really helpful quality of life options in the settings menus, things like skipping previously played cutscenes, turning off auto-face target (if it gets on your nerves), changing the inventory to expand view and many more. Lots of small tweaks that can really help alleviate some of the 2.0 blues
Yeah, you can't fast travel to other city states till lv 15 but that doesn't mean that you can't walk there :D I was a level 10 LNC and knew I wanted to swtich to GLD, so I went on my way with my smol LNC on a journey without any mount in new areas I've never seen. Was rather exciting, but oh boy did the aggro range for mobs increase a lot :D Didn't help hat most of the mobs could one shot me :C Didn't know at the time that later I could just use airships
@@hkoizumi3134 Oh yeah. I remember that first trip from Sandy to Jeuno. Sneaking my way through Batallia Downs while hugging the edge of the zone. haha
@@hkoizumi3134 OH MY GOD YES! SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE PAIN AND TENSION OF THE FIRST JEUNO RUN! It's even WORSE if you start at Windy (Windurstians UNITE).

Btw one important thing is that relic weapons are purely GLAMOUR your gonna out gear your relic real quick... and it’s really grindy I’ve seen too many poor sods grind that long with a weapon that is way weaker then what they already have or have rn
I was level 60 before I even reached Heavensward 😢 straight up gave up once I got Gae Bolg Novus, and as pretty as it is I’m still salty you can’t get replicas of previous versions til you do the FINAL weapon quest
I mean.... raids are the pinnacle of content. They're the reason why you gear up at 80. Yeah some people might not enjoy them and that's okay, but it doesnt change the fact that it's the pinnacle.
Ive been in MMOs since 99 and have done a lot of raiding but find the journey to max level overall more enjoyable. I am an explorer and dabbler type player so I never rush to "end game". Also as I get older (past 40 now) I dont have the time to do scheduled raids or the patience to deal with the social aspect that that comes with.
Just a new heads up, as a sprout! They’ve added vesper bay teleporter coupons. USE THOSE! It teleports you directly to Waking Sands, and is 100% free. You gain enough throughout the ARR MSQ to get you by, and still have a few left over (which you should save a few for HW because you do need to go back once or twice in HW and a bit during the expansion between HW and STB)
Quick mention, your chocobo doesn't start fighting with you until you hit 30 and do a quest in Camp Tranquil in South Shroud - it's easy to miss. Also the Ishgard jewelry vendor only sells level 50 and level 60 accessories, and nothing in between (so no 52, 54 etc).
@@Boyzby And if you want the tank to go faster and pull more, then you have two choices: 1. Go and pull more mobs like a mute bot and die for it. 2. Show that you are in fact human and have a brain and ask the tank to pull more.
@@MyVanir see the issue with that is many play on ps4 and dont use keyboards. So instead of wasting time to type it out, it's faster to just pull to tank. I pull to tank and don't attack so he can easily gain aggro on them. But this is only is endgame dungeons. Absolutely no reason why ppl cant pull multiple groups at those lvls
man everytime I watch someone saying ffxiv is like their home I feel so lonely, cause I love the game and I don't mind playing solo, but I wish I could make some friends too x'DD
If you are an South East Asia/Oceania English speaker playing on the Japanese data centre for improved latency, make sure you turn on the other languages in the duty finder. Click the cog in the UI element, got the languages tab and check them all. Doing so will vastly improve your queue times.
If you are on ANY data centre for ANY reason, ALWAYS tick all 4 languages in the duty finder. What Naexus01 said is absolutely correct; however, I am emphasising the fact that the DF will take forever matching you on any data centre if you only have 1 language option. Every time I hear people complaining about queue times, that is my first question: are ALL your languages ticked?
Not sure if this is sarcasm, but it happened to me on a multiple occasions. Though, maybe it's just because I play as a healer, and no one really wants to die. lol
THANK YOU for the tip on getting to Waking Sands. I just started playing last week got so sick of sprinting back and forth that I tolerated it until I could get a chocobo, then refused to go back until I had a chocobo to make the run a LITTLE less tedious
one thing no one seems to mention is you can kind of tell what order your actions are supposed to go in during a fight because murauder for example, if you do heavy swing, then maime will light up with this yellow dotted line around it indicating to do it next for a bigger damage, it's a nice visual indicator that i don't think a lot of people cover
If you start as DPS and see story dungeon queue times of 20+ minutes, open up a party finder and say you're new and it's your first time. Someone will drag you through it unsync within minutes.
If you don't want to do it unsynced put that in the information and if you want to watch cutscenes so only people that actually care about story enjoyment helps you out ^^ It's so not fun to be dragged through dungeon unsynced, when you actually want to do it for real and enjoy it.
For ranking up your GC - on a second character I leveled for the DC split, I realized that the hunting log alone doesn't really get you particularly close to unlocking Expert Deliveries. I think if someone is taking the game slow, GC seals from roulettes may be good enough, but after being generally disappointed by the seal rates as I tried to get them in various ways while leveling, I've taken to recommending to people that they maybe don't worry too much about GC until level 50. At which time, they can put on some level cap gear and roflstomp some GC leves (I preferred Hawthorne Hut) to power level their GC up to deliveries in... took me about 15-20 minutes I think. Just gotta avoid those leves that are forced to always take 5 minutes. And then they can turn in dungeon drops from allll those 50 dungeons, and those spare gear sets you get handed in the MSQ now, get the rest of the way to 2nd Lt. and be ready to unlock those Centurio Hunts as soon as they're in Ishgard and level 53.
I'm noticing some comments on the sidequests topic. Gonna drop my 2 gil on a fresh post instead of remarking on others as my stance is somewhat contrary to common opinion. Exp USED to be hard to come by, back in the bad ol' 7th Umbral days. This has *significantly* changed. These days, the brutal fact is that sidequests are actually time-inefficient for levelling. I am speaking from massive ADHD altoholicism. Alpha/beta tester invitation surveys for MMOs always ask a multiple answer question about what is most important to you about a game. *If you are a lore person* (as am I) then there is absolutely NO reason to save sidequests. ALL sidequests of a given level are 100% related to what is happening in the MSQ at that level. If LORE/STORY is what drives you, then consider TWO (three at beginning levels) jobs that interest you and level them simultaneously; one via MSQ and the other via the sidequests. The environment of the world is much more organic when experienced this way. Saving sidequests for later is actually rather jarring as the sidequests are discussing current events (from their lens) that are now ancient history (from your MSQ perspective 2 expansions after the fact). To reiterate, if you are a person whom MMOs are about The Journey, then don't fret saving the sidequests. Level two jobs side by side and experience the rich fabric of FF14 in real time.
@@christophermcauley4715 you can do everything on one class if you like. The risk used to be that you'd hit max level (when max level was 50) and any exp you would gain after that was gone to waste. I suppose this is still the risk if you don't have the expansions, only the base game. Now it's 80, so you won't hit max so easily but your one class will get overlevelled soon enough for the part of the story you're at. You can easily level 2 jobs and swap between them as you like if you're doing msq and sidequests, and I'd recommend it just to provide more variety to how you play :)
Now that I think about it, one of the reasons my Gladiator got to level 35+ while my MSQs were still around 20, was because I was invested with the job story. XD Same with picking Arcanist as second job, the characters there were interesting. :)
One thing they have to get down before ANYTHING once they're in the game world: The controls. They have to first pick an input style that suits them, and secondly, they need to set up their Hotbars/ X-Hotbars and find out what works best for them, maybe by finding a training dummy for the fights, at least. One thing nobody wants is to be searching for the right button (or pressing the wrong one) in the middle of a fight, or getting flustered because you don't know what's going on, and what feature does what. The same goes for sorting out their HUD and UI, especially if they need special settings for disability. This I know from experience. (But the game never seems to tell you...) I don't mean for every little thing, but just enough so that they can play the game at the basic level and know how to adjust it as they go along.
And another thing: The flow of the game is a lot more on the Mechanics side, so calm down and trust your tank if he prefers to go slower than you would like
Thank you. I've had people try to pull more cause I wasn't going fast and we ended up in sticky situations because I wasn't expecting it. Not realizing that I might be new to the dungeon or instance in general. Any other that I've been through, I fly through it all. I also go slow if someone else in the party is new so they can get a feel for it.
@@Zayindjejfj not Only because of a might be new Tank, some of what is been seen as a Tashmob can ruin your day because a mechanic bound to them, better learning it now before 5.0 so we can enjoy what we have came for.
@@philippgobel2930 Exactly. That's why new expansions are going to be sweet for me. Absolutely NO guides on the internet for the first few days and we'll have to learn slowly.
Thank you for this, 17 year WoW veteran (started when the Alpha test ended in 2003, and quit last year before Shadowlands) and this helped make it a little less confusing. I did have to set up my keybinds and HUD to be WoW like though lol, 17 years in one game tends to imprint itself on one's brain. I've been loving ESO for different reasons (that it's more of an action RPG with housing and outfits as endgame) but I miss that oldschool methodical tab-target style game
your voice when you said, “ain’t a class and a job the same thing,” it gave me serious Dolly Parton vibes and I am here for it, Queen! +1 sub for the puns too 😂
Haha HA the fetch quests do Not get less in Heavensward. However, these quests give you high quality gear and useful stuff. So it's not as fetchy until you find the moogles......you will want to kill them by the time you get done.
Awesome video! The only other thing I could think of for gil was when I played through heavensward and stormblood, I ended up making a lot of gil selling the high quality gear that you received from the MSQ and the side quests that wasn’t related to the main class I was leveling. I know most people might keep all of it since they have other classes, but since I was just leveling bard at the time, I made a decent amount of gil selling, axes, accessories of fending, etc, also I randomly have made a good amount using grand company deals to trade and sell portraits of Kan e sanna on the market board lol. Can’t wait for shadowbringers
To get to the Waking Sands, I've always teleported to Horizon in Western Thanalan and taken the chocobo to Vesper Bay. I feel like that would be faster to people like me who don't have SSDs, especially since loading into Limsa can take some time with how popular it is. It's also just fewer clicks, which is what I care about.
I would like to comment on a possible forgoten item for DoW/DoM leveling, The most important thing to do at level 15 before leaving for the other city states is to talk to "The Smith" and do your class trials. I resently made a 2nd character with the goal of experiencing the game from scratch so that I can more wholehartedly recommend whether or not to do a story skip. The forgoten item is this ring that gives +30% exp under level 30 for combat classes while at the dame time giving you +3 to regular stats (stats relevant beyond level 30). Look for NPC by the Innkeeper (city state) or near the first dungeon out in the field, with a beansprout icon called "The Smith".
Thank you so much this helps me out a lot. this is the first video I've seen of yours but it looks like you mainly cover final fantasy XIV and funny in the process. I'm going to subscribe and continue watching =)
I am a new player and totally agree with you. I watched this video because FF XIV is overwhelming and I feel like I definitely did something wrong with my character and I am perpetually lost. And this video has helped me with nothing except the icons for main quests and to know that I can skip all other quests. Does anyone have any real beginner tips video suggestions for FF XIV because I have tried asking questions in the chat, but nobody answered. I found it very frustrating, because I do not find FF XIV very intuitive, but then again I am not a hardcore gamer, so maybe that is my problem. Atm it looks like I will probably have to look for another mmo and play FF XIV sporadically as a single player game until it frustrates me into ditching it completely or until I finally start understand how this game works and how to navigate this world.
@@diana-maria5954 If you have any questions. Feel free to message reply to me or the official subreddit of ffxiv. They have people answering there lot it's nobodys business
#1 new tank tip: especially as you get to later dungeons, ask about boss mechanics. If you do, people are fine as you get used to them and will also explain trickier positionings. If you don't, people do tend to pick on tanks/report more than any other key role.
This video was awesome!! Had to watch it 3 times to get all the info because of the one liners, references and the like. Thank you for making these, this game is a bit challenging for some of us that have played "other" MMOs for a lengthy time and looking to test the waters elsewhere.
I've been watching a couple of your videos this last week and I finally feel like I better understand FFXIV. I've gone through the MSQ once fully with a couple of scene skips and then on an alt character I had purchased the MSQ skip but now I have been itching to come back after a 1 year hiatus but I really really really want to just restart again ( I tend to do this with a lot of games but I honestly thoroughly enjoy it ( except maybe the 65 times I've restarted fire emblem games; specifically awakening.... )) I am very much looking forward to beginning again and thank you for helping me feel more comfortable about it.
I would say you preface that it's not necessarily at X level you unlock stuff...some of the stuff is gated behind the MSQ and class/job stuff. If you get on a preferred world or have xp buffs from items like the pre-order bonus stuff, you'll EASILY surpass the levels you're saying. I didn't get my chocobo till nearly 30 because I was gated behind the story stuff that kept pushing me up higher. This is mostly in ARR stuff, though the end game areas of Mordonah, Ildyshire, and the Reach (or rather the vendors at the Reach) only become accessible if you make it past certain points in the MSQ (so you get to 50/60/70 and suddenly start getting Tomes, only to not be able to spend them.
Thank you so much for the video. My BF and I just purchased FFXIV Complete Edition. I've played a lot of other MMORPG's but never got around to it. I think I'll be pretty hooked and so glad to see helpful players and the novice network you spoke of. We will likely join your discord shortly. Great video, loved Picard of course!! :)
My girlfriend started playing XIV not so long ago so about 3 days or so ago i told her "it's time you get to know the Pun-tastic Zepla" and with this video i couldnt have been more right lol!
As a new player (less than a month worth of FFXIV!), you earned a sub. Most of this stuff I'd figured out already, but this video would have been a whole lot easier way to do it.
Ffxiv should put you on payroll. I’ve been playing since ARR and watching your videos make me eager to play even though I just logged off a few hours ago lol
Wow refugee here, glad I found your videos. Thanks for the tips. I've been wandering off doing side quests and didn't realize I wasn't doing my main quests, lol.

@@TheAccountant369 It's right outside the first dungeon. It has a leaf or a sprout icon on the map.

This is a great tip! Be sure to attune to aetherytes !!
I would argue side quests should be skipped on your first job as they are really handy for xp when leveling alt jobs.
I wouldnt say alt jobs, but for dps. I always run msq as dps bc I can just insta que dungeons as my tank
For alt jobs, just run potd. I'm sorry about stormblood, as hoh isn't really worth doing if you're trying to reach lvl70 as fast as you can. I hope fates are worth clearing in shadowbringers
I learned this the "hard" way. I used to clear side quests in witcher 3 before the main quests(the "!" Is just annoying), tried to clear most of side quests in gridania(CNJ) ended up being lvl 17 and my MSQ is still lvl 10 or so.
@@Lindaine Brand new player and I literally just did the same thing. lol
I mean, I have all classes between 65-80, and the jobs that are under 80, I can achieve almost 2 levels in 1-2 hours. Frontline challenge, leveling, and alliance raid roulette. Fat doinks for xp.
As a recent new player, I cannot vouch for the Hall of Novice enough.
I agree, You get some pretty cool level 15 gear and then if you complete the final challenge you get a level exp ring up to 30
Laura Yeah it teaches you really well and you be gear that you’ll use throughout the game
@@yamabushi_nate7825 Surprises me how easily the game spells out how to do a role and sometimes you get people in lvl 50+ dungeons that don't know how to properly Tank.
So in the beginning of the game you’re a glorified mailman.
There's actually a questline to be a mailman. Gives backstories to a lot of your early game NPCs. Really worth a playthrough.

@@ZeplaHQ And here's the clue: "This what they call you from the city-state you originate" ...and where is that btw?
I just started playing and I gotta say these are some of the nicest people I've ever met. I did a random fate with I guess a veteran player? And he could tell I was new! So when we finished it, he literally gave me 100k gil just to be nice! And then when I do a dungeon for the first time, they're very patient in explaining things to me and helping me keep up! I'm having a lot of fun and knowing how supportive everyone is makes me happy.
Well one thing... u unlock mounts with chocobo but he can battle by u side at level 30 after side quest in South Shroud
Did she just say that the chocobo will help you get around the world “Kweh-cker”?
Puns and buns - she’s got em
yup
I wanted to add something that isn't actually obvious at all and one of my friends who started the game recently had this problem: You cannot do the job quest until you progress the main story beyond a certain point. I believe the job quest didn't pop up for him until he finished the Sylph portion of the MSQ, and he was level 38 by the time he got there because he has the Road to 60 buff and was doing leveling roulette every day with us. So yes, do your job quest ASAP (I kept telling him to make sure to check every chance he got), just be aware you need the MSQ completed beyond the level 20 quest.
I'd suggest adding to not misbehave. Unlike a lot of other online games, the GMs will snatch you away for misbehaving, up to & including bans or temp bans.
Thats a nice informa... Why can't I get my eyes off of those hair buns?
Because it's unusual but cool.
It's natural for the eyes to be drawn to the buns
Zepla HQ I feel like that has a double meaning, and I'm okay with that
You were obviously a Sailor Moon fan.
I once weard my hair in a similar way (no buns) and was being mocked for it. Worlds a dark place without creativity and kind hearts. Still, they look cool 😎

There are a bunch of really helpful quality of life options in the settings menus, things like skipping previously played cutscenes, turning off auto-face target (if it gets on your nerves), changing the inventory to expand view and many more. Lots of small tweaks that can really help alleviate some of the 2.0 blues
Yeah, you can't fast travel to other city states till lv 15 but that doesn't mean that you can't walk there :D I was a level 10 LNC and knew I wanted to swtich to GLD, so I went on my way with my smol LNC on a journey without any mount in new areas I've never seen. Was rather exciting, but oh boy did the aggro range for mobs increase a lot :D Didn't help hat most of the mobs could one shot me :C Didn't know at the time that later I could just use airships

"I can't wait for shadowbringers!!!"
"Have you finished msq?"
"Uhhh..."
well, yes, i actually did o.0
I was literally in post ARR / pre HW when I came back to the game, excited for ShB. QQ
This is me in every MMO, tbh
Btw one important thing is that relic weapons are purely GLAMOUR your gonna out gear your relic real quick... and it’s really grindy I’ve seen too many poor sods grind that long with a weapon that is way weaker then what they already have or have rn
That's not true. The final stage if the relic weapon is always 5 levels ahead of everything else.
I’m talking about beginner relic weapons becoming quite weak really early not eurekas 405
I was level 60 before I even reached Heavensward 😢 straight up gave up once I got Gae Bolg Novus, and as pretty as it is I’m still salty you can’t get replicas of previous versions til you do the FINAL weapon quest
they did to for the glamour. its the end game prep
raids aren't everything, you don't have to be good at all the content to enjoy the game
Absolutely! There are many different ways to play & enjoy ffxiv, and raids aren't for everyone . That's ok so long as you're having fun 👍
Pvp is everything :)
Majority of people don't play mmos to rp, it's for raiding
I mean.... raids are the pinnacle of content. They're the reason why you gear up at 80. Yeah some people might not enjoy them and that's okay, but it doesnt change the fact that it's the pinnacle.
Ive been in MMOs since 99 and have done a lot of raiding but find the journey to max level overall more enjoyable. I am an explorer and dabbler type player so I never rush to "end game". Also as I get older (past 40 now) I dont have the time to do scheduled raids or the patience to deal with the social aspect that that comes with.
Just a new heads up, as a sprout!
They’ve added vesper bay teleporter coupons. USE THOSE! It teleports you directly to Waking Sands, and is 100% free. You gain enough throughout the ARR MSQ to get you by, and still have a few left over (which you should save a few for HW because you do need to go back once or twice in HW and a bit during the expansion between HW and STB)
TIL that being a drug dealer will be my mode of income in this game... 10/10 realism
Quick mention, your chocobo doesn't start fighting with you until you hit 30 and do a quest in Camp Tranquil in South Shroud - it's easy to miss. Also the Ishgard jewelry vendor only sells level 50 and level 60 accessories, and nothing in between (so no 52, 54 etc).
If you're a healer, NEVER ADJUST.
I always adjust when healing. I adjust the list of people who get to remain dead because my MP is better spent dpsing.
I'd like to think most tanks and healers agree on this: If you pull it, you tank it. And we're not helping you.
@@Boyzby And if you want the tank to go faster and pull more, then you have two choices:
1. Go and pull more mobs like a mute bot and die for it.
2. Show that you are in fact human and have a brain and ask the tank to pull more.
Adjust god dammit!!
@@MyVanir see the issue with that is many play on ps4 and dont use keyboards. So instead of wasting time to type it out, it's faster to just pull to tank. I pull to tank and don't attack so he can easily gain aggro on them. But this is only is endgame dungeons. Absolutely no reason why ppl cant pull multiple groups at those lvls
man everytime I watch someone saying ffxiv is like their home I feel so lonely, cause I love the game and I don't mind playing solo, but I wish I could make some friends too x'DD
Same!
Same! So far, it's like WoW -- "hi" (here: "o/"), "by" (here: "gg"). And that's it.
If you are an South East Asia/Oceania English speaker playing on the Japanese data centre for improved latency, make sure you turn on the other languages in the duty finder. Click the cog in the UI element, got the languages tab and check them all. Doing so will vastly improve your queue times.
If you are on ANY data centre for ANY reason, ALWAYS tick all 4 languages in the duty finder. What Naexus01 said is absolutely correct; however, I am emphasising the fact that the DF will take forever matching you on any data centre if you only have 1 language option. Every time I hear people complaining about queue times, that is my first question: are ALL your languages ticked?
I would say mention that your new at the beginning of dungeons and someone will ABSOLUTELY help you out with knowing the mechanics of the fights.
Not sure if this is sarcasm, but it happened to me on a multiple occasions. Though, maybe it's just because I play as a healer, and no one really wants to die. lol
@@SergeDuka Not sarcasm. I help new players myself with dungeon mecs. It's just fun for me to help and make runs go smooth.

THANK YOU for the tip on getting to Waking Sands. I just started playing last week got so sick of sprinting back and forth that I tolerated it until I could get a chocobo, then refused to go back until I had a chocobo to make the run a LITTLE less tedious
one thing no one seems to mention is you can kind of tell what order your actions are supposed to go in during a fight because murauder for example, if you do heavy swing, then maime will light up with this yellow dotted line around it indicating to do it next for a bigger damage, it's a nice visual indicator that i don't think a lot of people cover
I do Horizon > then rent a porter chocobo to Vesper Bay. One less hop and even lazier
If you start as DPS and see story dungeon queue times of 20+ minutes, open up a party finder and say you're new and it's your first time. Someone will drag you through it unsync within minutes.
If you don't want to do it unsynced put that in the information and if you want to watch cutscenes so only people that actually care about story enjoyment helps you out ^^ It's so not fun to be dragged through dungeon unsynced, when you actually want to do it for real and enjoy it.
She is the one called Sailor Zepla!!
well she plays DNC now, pretty close
Got way too distracted from the MSQ by doing the Hildibrand quests, no regrets it's probably the funniest shit I've seen in an MMO.
For ranking up your GC - on a second character I leveled for the DC split, I realized that the hunting log alone doesn't really get you particularly close to unlocking Expert Deliveries.
I think if someone is taking the game slow, GC seals from roulettes may be good enough, but after being generally disappointed by the seal rates as I tried to get them in various ways while leveling, I've taken to recommending to people that they maybe don't worry too much about GC until level 50.
At which time, they can put on some level cap gear and roflstomp some GC leves (I preferred Hawthorne Hut) to power level their GC up to deliveries in... took me about 15-20 minutes I think. Just gotta avoid those leves that are forced to always take 5 minutes.
And then they can turn in dungeon drops from allll those 50 dungeons, and those spare gear sets you get handed in the MSQ now, get the rest of the way to 2nd Lt. and be ready to unlock those Centurio Hunts as soon as they're in Ishgard and level 53.
I'm noticing some comments on the sidequests topic. Gonna drop my 2 gil on a fresh post instead of remarking on others as my stance is somewhat contrary to common opinion.
Exp USED to be hard to come by, back in the bad ol' 7th Umbral days. This has *significantly* changed.
These days, the brutal fact is that sidequests are actually time-inefficient for levelling. I am speaking from massive ADHD altoholicism.
Alpha/beta tester invitation surveys for MMOs always ask a multiple answer question about what is most important to you about a game. *If you are a lore person* (as am I) then there is absolutely NO reason to save sidequests. ALL sidequests of a given level are 100% related to what is happening in the MSQ at that level. If LORE/STORY is what drives you, then consider TWO (three at beginning levels) jobs that interest you and level them simultaneously; one via MSQ and the other via the sidequests.
The environment of the world is much more organic when experienced this way. Saving sidequests for later is actually rather jarring as the sidequests are discussing current events (from their lens) that are now ancient history (from your MSQ perspective 2 expansions after the fact).
To reiterate, if you are a person whom MMOs are about The Journey, then don't fret saving the sidequests. Level two jobs side by side and experience the rich fabric of FF14 in real time.
Uhh yes, 7th umbral days. I was just a lalafell with fates and blizzard 2 back then. Good times.
Hey I just bought ff14, could I do both the msq and side quests on the same class/job? Or do I have to level two classes?
@@christophermcauley4715 you can do everything on one class if you like. The risk used to be that you'd hit max level (when max level was 50) and any exp you would gain after that was gone to waste. I suppose this is still the risk if you don't have the expansions, only the base game. Now it's 80, so you won't hit max so easily but your one class will get overlevelled soon enough for the part of the story you're at. You can easily level 2 jobs and swap between them as you like if you're doing msq and sidequests, and I'd recommend it just to provide more variety to how you play :)
Now that I think about it, one of the reasons my Gladiator got to level 35+ while my MSQs were still around 20, was because I was invested with the job story. XD
Same with picking Arcanist as second job, the characters there were interesting. :)
you can set limsa as a Favored Destination to reduce the cost of the teleport as well
One thing they have to get down before ANYTHING once they're in the game world: The controls. They have to first pick an input style that suits them, and secondly, they need to set up their Hotbars/ X-Hotbars and find out what works best for them, maybe by finding a training dummy for the fights, at least. One thing nobody wants is to be searching for the right button (or pressing the wrong one) in the middle of a fight, or getting flustered because you don't know what's going on, and what feature does what. The same goes for sorting out their HUD and UI, especially if they need special settings for disability. This I know from experience. (But the game never seems to tell you...) I don't mean for every little thing, but just enough so that they can play the game at the basic level and know how to adjust it as they go along.
Blue side quest must not be ignored starting HW, except if you don't want to fly.

@@altansipdrae2759 thank you
And another thing: The flow of the game is a lot more on the Mechanics side, so calm down and trust your tank if he prefers to go slower than you would like
Thank you. I've had people try to pull more cause I wasn't going fast and we ended up in sticky situations because I wasn't expecting it.
Not realizing that I might be new to the dungeon or instance in general. Any other that I've been through, I fly through it all.
I also go slow if someone else in the party is new so they can get a feel for it.
@@Zayindjejfj not Only because of a might be new Tank, some of what is been seen as a Tashmob can ruin your day because a mechanic bound to them, better learning it now before 5.0 so we can enjoy what we have came for.

First video I have seen of yours. Love the content. Humorous, educational and you clearly are comfortable speaking on camera. Keep it up!
Thank you for this, 17 year WoW veteran (started when the Alpha test ended in 2003, and quit last year before Shadowlands) and this helped make it a little less confusing. I did have to set up my keybinds and HUD to be WoW like though lol, 17 years in one game tends to imprint itself on one's brain.
I've been loving ESO for different reasons (that it's more of an action RPG with housing and outfits as endgame) but I miss that oldschool methodical tab-target style game
your voice when you said, “ain’t a class and a job the same thing,” it gave me serious Dolly Parton vibes and I am here for it, Queen! +1 sub for the puns too 😂
Haha HA the fetch quests do Not get less in Heavensward. However, these quests give you high quality gear and useful stuff. So it's not as fetchy until you find the moogles......you will want to kill them by the time you get done.
COKE is a form of coal. In case anyone was wondering what the coke in this game is.
Awesome video! The only other thing I could think of for gil was when I played through heavensward and stormblood, I ended up making a lot of gil selling the high quality gear that you received from the MSQ and the side quests that wasn’t related to the main class I was leveling. I know most people might keep all of it since they have other classes, but since I was just leveling bard at the time, I made a decent amount of gil selling, axes, accessories of fending, etc, also I randomly have made a good amount using grand company deals to trade and sell portraits of Kan e sanna on the market board lol. Can’t wait for shadowbringers
Super useful and still funny. Also OMG I LOVE YOUR HAIR! IT'S SO CUTE!
To get to the Waking Sands, I've always teleported to Horizon in Western Thanalan and taken the chocobo to Vesper Bay. I feel like that would be faster to people like me who don't have SSDs, especially since loading into Limsa can take some time with how popular it is. It's also just fewer clicks, which is what I care about.
The chocobo from horizon is good for when I want to get up to get a beverage/snack while omw to waking sands
I would like to comment on a possible forgoten item for DoW/DoM leveling, The most important thing to do at level 15 before leaving for the other city states is to talk to "The Smith" and do your class trials. I resently made a 2nd character with the goal of experiencing the game from scratch so that I can more wholehartedly recommend whether or not to do a story skip.
The forgoten item is this ring that gives +30% exp under level 30 for combat classes while at the dame time giving you +3 to regular stats (stats relevant beyond level 30).
Look for NPC by the Innkeeper (city state) or near the first dungeon out in the field, with a beansprout icon called "The Smith".
Thank you so much this helps me out a lot.
this is the first video I've seen of yours but it looks like you mainly cover final fantasy XIV and funny in the process.
I'm going to subscribe and continue watching =)
Thanks for this Zepla, I have been playing for a week and doing ALL the side quests. I was scared of missing something 😂😂😂
I still am, even after so many people said it was ok to skip those.
Please rename this video to "Puns only FF14 players will get"
It's actually another lesson by her telling newcomers to be accustomed to puns in the games. I was overwhelmed with them with quest titles long ago.
I am a new player and totally agree with you. I watched this video because FF XIV is overwhelming and I feel like I definitely did something wrong with my character and I am perpetually lost. And this video has helped me with nothing except the icons for main quests and to know that I can skip all other quests.
Does anyone have any real beginner tips video suggestions for FF XIV because I have tried asking questions in the chat, but nobody answered. I found it very frustrating, because I do not find FF XIV very intuitive, but then again I am not a hardcore gamer, so maybe that is my problem. Atm it looks like I will probably have to look for another mmo and play FF XIV sporadically as a single player game until it frustrates me into ditching it completely or until I finally start understand how this game works and how to navigate this world.

#1 new tank tip: especially as you get to later dungeons, ask about boss mechanics. If you do, people are fine as you get used to them and will also explain trickier positionings. If you don't, people do tend to pick on tanks/report more than any other key role.

I'm slightly worried about the monetization of your video after these business tips.
I've been watching a couple of your videos this last week and I finally feel like I better understand FFXIV. I've gone through the MSQ once fully with a couple of scene skips and then on an alt character I had purchased the MSQ skip but now I have been itching to come back after a 1 year hiatus but I really really really want to just restart again ( I tend to do this with a lot of games but I honestly thoroughly enjoy it ( except maybe the 65 times I've restarted fire emblem games; specifically awakening.... ))
I am very much looking forward to beginning again and thank you for helping me feel more comfortable about it.
I definitely didn't expect the sweet southern twang in you're voice
I would say you preface that it's not necessarily at X level you unlock stuff...some of the stuff is gated behind the MSQ and class/job stuff. If you get on a preferred world or have xp buffs from items like the pre-order bonus stuff, you'll EASILY surpass the levels you're saying. I didn't get my chocobo till nearly 30 because I was gated behind the story stuff that kept pushing me up higher. This is mostly in ARR stuff, though the end game areas of Mordonah, Ildyshire, and the Reach (or rather the vendors at the Reach) only become accessible if you make it past certain points in the MSQ (so you get to 50/60/70 and suddenly start getting Tomes, only to not be able to spend them.
