Excitement! I’ve mostly run out of things to do so I’m really looking for the Variant dungeon and BLU.

But have you considered…

I know female Hrothgar is something they’ve mentioned before as at least “eventually” tier. So I think it’s definitely possible for 7.0.

I went and looked up what other fanfests were like (source is on reddit 🙁, sorry).

If history repeats, we should get:

• The expansion name
• A short teaser trailer
• Basic announcements about content with no details
• Where are we going or some important people. Basic surface-level plot points. Maybe a bit of relevant lore
• Screenshots
• A few big system announcements (e.g., SB had the introduction of Eureka, an inventory expansion, and the end of PS3 support, ShB introduced Ishgardian Restoration, New Game+, World Visit)
• Yoshi-P wears a shirt that teases something about the expansion (e.g., HW had Batman = Dark Knight, SB had Scarlet Witch = Red Mage, ShB had Bugs Bunny = Viera)

We might also get some details on 6.5.

It’s up to you. I played almost entirely Black Mage through Shadowbringers then almost entirely Machinist about halfway through those patch quests and up to present. I only started levelling other jobs once I was done with MSQ, so keep occupied and to try new things.

The answer to this question probably depends on how much you like John Oliver.

As a lalafell DPS main, the cute portrait comms are very real.

Right now I’m in soft-break until probably 6.45, so I’m mostly just doing dailies and weeklies and occasional crafting. Normally I’m playing new content or doing completionist-ish stuff. I don’t raid though, not a big appeal for me – but that’s about the only section of content in the game I think I haven’t really done much with. Right now I’ve been running the subs at my FC to keep occupied.

I started playing around 5.4, and caught up with MSQ between 5.45 and 5.5. It’s hard for me to pick favorites in terms of content… I finished my card mount grind a couple months back, which gave me a good excuse to try just about everything at least a little bit. FFXIV claims I have about 195 days of playtime. I’m definitely not a sprout anymore though I look back at those first few months very fondly.

I play on Brynhildr; I don’t use add-ons but I don’t judge those that do. I appreciate that add-ons are pushing SE to add useful features/QoL adjustments for everyone.

My main source of info is r/ffxiv and a variety of Discord servers, though I’m hoping this community can grow bigger over time so I can fully disconnect from Reddit eventually.
