Current Events > FF14 question *spoilers up to shadowbringers*

(+) Yeah! (+)

i think im approaching the end of the list of side content i wanted to do before continuing MSQ

so far ive done:

ARR:
Crystal Tower (this was mandatory anyway)
Coils
Zodiak Weapon

HW:
Void Ark
Alexander Raids
Containment Bay
Anima weapon

SB:
Return to Ivalice
Omega
Doma restoration
Currently in progress of doing Four Lords

So what I've got left is:

get every job to 80 and do job quests (I'm mostly there, sans gathers/crafters which i'll skip until after endwalker)
Hildibrand (haven't started)
Bozja/Eureka (but I heard these suck/can't be done solo)
Unukalhai, whatever that is. Dunno if this impacts any Endwalker dialogue?

And then Shadowbringers side content:

Raids - Is this just the Nier & Eden raids or is there more?
Trials - Sorrow of Werlyt
Void Quests - what are those
Role quests/followups - Is this just the 70-80 role questlines I did during the ShB MSQ or is there more?
"Weapon storyline" - whats that

My question with the shadowbringers content is, when can I do all this if the furtherest ive gotten through the MSQ is basically just beating Emech Selch but not doing any post expansion patches yet?
And what else other than what I mentioned above should be done before continuing the MSQ through the post ShB patches through to Endwalker?

you made me glad i dont play this anymore. thank you

im just being a partial completionist, nobody plays games the way I do :(

The only thing I would recommend you doing is before progressing too far in MSQ is the void quests, which are just a small epilogue to the role quests once you do all four. I think you want to do those before 5.3 (don't remember the exact point) so you get a small bonus interaction, but otherwise just do all the content as you get to it.

I would recommend not doing all the Hildibrand quests at once - I like them but I could see them being very grating if it's all you're doing for hours. They're just little shitpost quests, no need to save them all for post Endwalker or whatever you're planning.

im doing the hildibrand quests now. not feeling any grating just yet. although i did watch in shock as someone else came along to the spot I was at (i assume doing the same quest) and then skipped the cutscene...

It's good to access the Bozja stuff if you're going to be level grinding. The second area in Bozja, called Zadnor, is accessible at Lv71, and you can typically grind Fates there to Lv80 in a few hours. But yeah, it's not really a thing you can do solo, and it does take a while to get through it. I wouldn't say it sucks, though. I thought the story was alright.

But yeah, the only Raids are Eden and the Nier stuff.

Void Quests are an epilogue to the Role Quests. You had to do at least one Role Quest to complete ShB's MSQ, depending on whether you were DPS/Tank/etc. But if you do all five, the Void Quests are unlocked. You need to have also completed the Warring Triad Raid series from Heavensward to unlock them, which it looks like you have. That's where Unukalhai was introduced, to answer your question about him. He was the little boy in the white robe who acted as the quest giver in those Raids. The Void Quests shouldn't be available until 5.4, but the best time to get them all done is pre-Endwalker.

because the game has optional content?

i dont have many levels left to grind (to 80 anyway for all classes) since I just do the daily roulettes and get a ton of exp and tomes.

also, I noticed every job seems to have a yellow quest at some areas once ive reached 80. normally they are blue. are these important, and how do I know where they all are?

ah, so theres some shadowbringers stuff i cant do immediately at 5.0? does this include the raids and whatnot? i. still at 5.0 and chugging along through hildibrand

also, unrelated, but is it wrong to steal a glam off eorzea collection

Pretty sure everything else is available at the start, but the Void Quest storyline hinges on lore that doesn't get introduced in the MSQ until 5.3, so I think it's locked until then.

I think the lv80 yellow quests are just epilogues for that quest line. I guess they're not blue anymore because they don't actually unlock anything for you; it's just story.

just finished hildibrand up to the end of stormblood.

still not sure whether to do bozja/eureka. i have half a mind to skip since i have a feeling finding people to do it with will be pain. I already suffered through 7+ hours of queueing for the ivalice raids as a healer

i guess this just leaves me the last couple of 80's I need to get, yellow class followups, and then inching along in the post-shadowbringers patches MSQ until I unlock the trials/raids/void quests

Bozja is almost always populated enough when I go in to get stuff done.

You queue in by yourself immediately, then find a group of other people inside to go through everything. But I feel like most of it is doable solo, iirc.
