A List Of FFXIV Guides

Looking back at all my Final Fantasy XIV guides I felt it was time I organized them. This post will serve to list out all current and upcoming guides I have on Gameskinny. I would like to thank Ashley for the idea, as she just did a list for her guides as well.

What I Cover

I generally cover the story quests, dungeons, trials, and hunting logs within the game so anything that is related to those items will likely be posted on at some point by me. If tradecrafts or gathering is more your thing check out Ashley’s list. I currently only have one guide planned to come from gathering.

Launch Guides

Story

Now to the actual lists. I’ll start with my story line guides for the normal mode versions of Ifrit, Titan, and Garuda:

• Ifrit
• Titan
• Garuda

Dungeons

Other than the two final story dungeons and the trial battles I also plan on writing guides for all the dungeons in the game. Currently I’ve only covered Amdapor Keep but I will list all of the dungeons below.

• Amdapor Keep: Psycheflayer
• Amdapor Keep: Demon Wall
• Amdapor Keep: Anantaboga
• Copperbell Mines Part 1
• Copperbell Mines Part 2
• Haukke Manor

Hunting Logs

I approached my hunting log guides a bit different. For tier one I cover the starting city which encompasses all classes that start there. For the remainder of the tiers I will be doing them based on the class/job. I currently only have two of my hunting log guides finished but more will be coming soon.

Gridania

• Gridania Tier One Hunter’s Log Guide
• Lancer Tier Two Hunter’s Log Guide
• Lancer Tier Three Hunter’s Log Guide
• Lancer Tier Four Hunter’s Log Guide
• Lancer Tier Five Hunter’s Log Guide

Progression

The only thing that currently fits under this section is my Relic Quest progression guides. This is actually a pretty long quest line that not even I have completed yet. I personally am stuck on Titan, but many people get stuck a bit earlier. I won’t relist the Amdapor Keep guides in this section because I already have them up above.

• A Relic Reborn: Overview Guide
• Dhorne Chimera Guide
• Hydra Guide
• Ifrit Hard Mode Guide
• Garuda Hard Mode Guide
• Titan Hard Mode Guide

Miscellaneous

I’ve also posted a few miscellaneous guides to leveling and what not. While some of these have outgrown their purposes new players may still find a bit of use out of them.

• FFXIV Leveling Guide II: Experience
• FFXIV Leveling Guide III: Gathering Crafting & Advanced Tips
• FFXIV Advanced Crafting and Gathering Tips
• FFXIV Amdapor Keep Bonus Guide

If I add anything that isn’t currently on the list I will also add it on here. Anything on here that currently does not have a link means it is currently in work and not posted yet on the site. As I finish more guides I will link them on here so check back frequently. If there is any guide in particular you’d like to see done that’s not complete yet, or not on the list, leave a comment below and I’ll try to get it up as soon as possible.
