They definitely are. I still have to kill like, 5 of them now. Plus a Shishiman warrior from a while back. Will save that for later.

Got past the giant Carp in the cave. He ended up hitting me once, almost one shotting me, but got past and got the idol. Going back to Kuro to see what dialogue I can hear. Kuro gave me another sticky rice ball, and tells me that the Interior Ministry's army is stirring, and that Lord Isshin visits him. Interesting.

Ended up eavesdropping on them. One said "we're almost there" and then "do what must be done." Huh, odd.

I'll keep an eye on that for later.

Did the level 25 archer quest, that took an interesting turn. Though I had guessed that Silvaire was the sentry he had himself talked about earlier. Brought the cat girl back to the guild, and now can't do the next one until level 30.

You can hold onto stuff now if you want, but you'll eventually run out of armory chest space. Dungeon-quality gear is easy to get, so don't feel bad about getting rid of stuff that you might eventually use.

(One exception is that you might want to hold onto gear that you think looks particularly cool; you can put this in a glamour dresser if you just want it for the appearance).

Fashion is the real endgame.

FF14's fanbase is shockingly positive for an MMO so don't be afraid to say you're new or ask for advice if necessary. Generally you'll be able to learn dungeon bosses on-the-fly without too much trouble though, at least once you start recognizing the general patterns and icons bosses use.
Thanks both of you. And yes, the community is mostly quite awesome. Take my next dungeon experience.

Ended up doing the quest for the Tam-Tara Deepcroft shortly after. One of the DPSs had to leave because I gotta eat, like a couple minutes into the dungeon. Thankfully it wasnt the tank or healer, and we did fine with just 3. I even got a commendation lol. Tank was super chill, especially because I didnt realize the stupid imp was behind me, so the mind flayer boss dude was invulnerable for longer than he shouldve been. But the dude just calmly said to focus the imp, I found him, the rest was easy.

Tried to add the dude as a friend later, but it said his name didnt exist. Was he from another data centre?

Yeah people will often leave immediately at the end if they don't need anything that the boss dropped. I'll usually stick around for comms.
I ended up with new ear cuffs and something else new that I forget already. Also got a staff that Ill likely never use. Should I hold on to it for if I level up another class later on?

I believe every dungeon has a cutscene to introduce the final boss. Sometimes these are plot relevant, sometimes not so much. Aside from that there's just the opening and closing cutscenes.
Yeah I definitely saw that one. I guess everyone else just exited quickly after he died. Maybe I just somehow didn't see the commendation screen. Oh well.

Going to do the level 20 archer quest (experience in that dungeon took me from 19 to 21), then the next MSQ which is Tam-Tara Deepcroft.

A few things, in no particular order:

Archer (and later Bard) is heavily focused around its damage over time abilities. On boss fights you should get in the habit of opening with Venomous Bite (and later, Windbite) and keeping those effects on the boss the entire time. There's some complicated math for trash fights on when you should apply dots and when it's not worth it, but I think those don't come into play until you actually unlock Bard.

Most people doing these early dungeons have done them a million times and will be skipping the mid- and end-dungeon cutscenes. Don't take it personally. Most people will be kind enough to let you watch the cutscenes your first time through. A simple "I'm new" or "first time" in chat will get you a lot of understanding and compassion from most of the playerbase.

Regarding loot, on pretty much anything the game lets you roll Need on you should roll Need. Otherwise it's either gear your current class can't use or occasionally crafting items (I'm actually not sure about this, I know the ARR rework changed a lot about how levelling dungeon chests work but I never bothered to investigate it thoroughly because I didn't have any combat classes below 50 when the rework hit). If everyone else has chosen Pass on a piece of loot and you haven't rolled when the timer runs out you will get that loot automatically.

Yeah I definitely said "first time dungeon" or something similar right away. Hardly any dialogue, mainly just killing things lol. So did I miss cutscenes? I saw the dude go down, but not much else.

Man, we rammed through that dungeon. I basically just spammed quick nock when a giant group of them were there, and heavy shot (plus OGCDs) and straight shot otherwise. Boss stayed locked on the tank and we mashed him fast. Everyone was gone like, instantly though, and I never saw the commendation screen either. The loot part was a little tricky for me too. I ended up getting into the menu, and clicked need for 2 of the things (and got them), and ended up with 2 other things even though I didn't press anything.

Just got back to Limsa Lominsa to do some task for the adventure guild person there. Kinda cool to explore all the areas now. Not a lot of battling at all recently, but a lot of world building, which is cool too! I love how Midgardsormr is a giant fucking dragon, because it reminds me of Midgar Zolom (the giant snake). Up to level 19!

I dont know if youve unlocked the challenge log yet, but if so its worth doing the Gold Saucer section each week for easy MGP (besides Mahjong; I also skip Chocobo racing, but thats more because I personally hate it).
Not yet, though I did the mini cactpot thing, and though I never got the sum of 6 for 10 grand MGP, I got a few thousand in the 3 tries I was allowed.

Something to keep in mind if you ever feel like leveling another class/job - you get an exp boost when you level another job that is not your highest leveled job. So don't feel like you're ever stuck with a job - one of FFXIV's biggest strengths is that switching jobs is incredibly easy
I will definitely keep this in mind!

Most dungeons you wont need to communicate at all, especially the story ones. Maybe look up the boss mechanics as you need them but a lot is pretty self-explanatory.
That's good to know, will keep that in mind.

Hooooly hell the enfeeblement status is awful. Died a few times to that while wandering around killing nobles and warriors.

I get to the next idol, go exploring some more and WHAT IN THE HELL ANOTHER BULL?! This thing kills me twice, then I figure out to basically stay glued to its ass, get hits in when I can, and dont force anything. Down it goes.

I progress upwards, and wander around, killing lightning dogs/cats, and some other warriors. I make it to the next idol, and find the dude shooting lightning at me from across the map. Suuuuper easy boss fight, I just get in his face and hammer him to death.

I take a spin around the water in that area, get a few of the treasure carps, the huge one makes an appearance again (it destroyed a bridge earlier), and the old woman tells me to get into the palace by way of underwater tunnel. And of COURSE theres another headless. Oh man, and a shichimen warrior too!

Gonna call it for now lol. Progress Emma and Kuros dialogue by warping back and just talking to them both?

Got her!! Probably took me almost as many tries, if not moreso, than Genichiro. For the second phase, I ended up finding the higher branch that they couldnt reach me on, and she spawned back quickly. That was after running around aimlessly and getting murdered a few times though.

But good lord that third phase. That crazy fast long range sweep, the quick triple twirl in the air, not to mention that fucking centipede puking everywhere to cause terror. And she hits HARD too. Finally killed her, and I really hope thats it for her and I never have to fight her again.

I explore fountainhead a little bit, killing what look like mist nobles. And these very fast warriors. Oh, and I went in the deep water, heard a thunderclap, and got absolutely blasted with lightning. Did it intentionally the second time so I could figure out where its coming from, and saw the dude waaaaay up high. Well, will deal with him later. Got to the next idol, and stopped for now.

That boss likely gave me some of the quickest deaths in memory in this game. Didnt help that I was getting frustrated and couldnt get her thrust tells. Think I may have mikiri countered like, 3 of them in total.

That wouldve been amusing.

Owl kicked my ass the first couple times, until I learned his patterns. I got hit by that anti healing grenade more times than Im proud of too. His posture is strong, didnt feel like I was going to deflect enough to bring it up, so I ended up with vitality kills.

Took until try #5, but I got him. Definitely a fun fight, similarish to Genichiro (and in the same place), so that was cool.

Took him down, after using a stealth kill for one of his health bars.

Did some more exploring, found an underwater headless because of course there is. Got terror murdered. Will come back to him later likely. Went to the top of the castle, and theres Kuro. And Owl, who of course is alive. He asks me to obey the code and forsake Kuro. Ahhhh this would be that major choice I assume. He seems evil/just wants the dragon blood, so were going to break the iron code and stay loyal!

Uhhhh so Ashina Castle is under attack from assassins and purple ninjas and holy fuck is navigating hard. Im trying to activate all the idols again, and thats a struggle.

I get behind one door and hear roaring. The roaring sounds like an ogre. Fuck me, its another ogre. I eventually get into the antechamber, run away from two Ashina elites and a purple ninja (who then turn on each other), and drop to the lower beam. Oh hey, theres the ogre. Im able to deathblow him from above, and I take him out my first try. Got hit by the diving grab once, but using that pillar in the middle was helpful.

More exploring, activate the old grave idol, and kill a tiny red hat assassin, who says it shouldve been impossible. Uhhh nope. They suck to fight though.

I get to the Ashina dojo idol, and of course theres something right in the adjoining room. Longshadow Vilehand, so I assume theres poison involved. Uhhhhh why is there also a purple ninja?! Oh fuck, Im dead.

Yep, thats where Im going to call it for the night lol

Get the prayer bead up top. Then continue on. Aaaaaaand another boss fight?! Corrupted Monk, though she only has one health bar at least. Guess what, doesnt matter, she has a lot of health and wild swings. Eventually figured out how to relatively reliably bait the thrust, but took me 5 tries to kill her.

Got the stone, and learned how to dive underwater! Found a prayer bead down there too. Now trying to warp back to Kuros room aaaaaaand I cant? Uhhh why?

ORin of the Water. Yeah, definitely tricky fight, was difficult to get my timing down. Definitely did mortal blade twice at the beginning to take off some of her health.

Got her on try #5. Focused on jumping her sweep straight up and doing posture damage, along with deflecting, but damn she does a lotta posture damage herself. She only did the sweep once in phase 2.

Ran around a little bit, found a chest under a waterfall, fought a ghost-like ashina elite on a bridge, and found a chick playing a.........banjo? So since Im not the person shes looking for, she attacked me. Aaaaand Im dead. Damn, she floats around and turns ethereal half the time

Make that tomorrow. Watching the Chicago Bears be completely horrendous on offense has killed my mood for gaming tonight
