i wish video game costume designers ran actual fashion companies i want the entirety of ffxiv’s closet with cool circlets and longcoats w twelve buckles and ornamented shorts and armored thigh high boots but instead im stuck in a world where apparently just having brand names across your clothes is trendy and all jeans look the same and no one’s brave enough to wear a belt across their chest
harpersbazaar.com calls the look on the left “the picture of modern elegance” when the look on the right exists??? to say that i’m disappointed in the fashion industry is an understatement.
FFXIV Website Tools
Wikis
Gamer Escape - Probably the most comprehensive wiki for the game. Tons and tons of info on basically everything, plus Discus comments at the bottom of each page.
ConsoleGames FFXIV Wiki - Another wiki, also very comprehensive, but in a more familiar, traditional, Wikipedia-esque format.
Final Fantasy Wiki - A good solid wiki, but has information for ALL Final Fantasy Games, so requires a bit of navigating.
FFXIV Guild - Somewhat out of date, but offers several still-useful guides for leveling things.
Gathering and Crafting
Garland Tools Database - Extremely comprehensive, constantly updated. Amazing for making lists of what you want and doing all the math for you on how to get it. Lots of other tools on the site, but this one’s the one you remember it for!
Teamcraft - Simliar in many ways to Garland, but has tools the above does not, and vice-versa. Requires a login, but also gives you access to community input, such as rotations people have figured out, as well as tracking your crafting and gathering logs.
XIV Angler - For when you need to know HOW to catch that @&$%ing fish. Baits, weathers, windows, even hooking info.
FFXIV Crafting Optimizer - Never lose mats to figuring out a rotation again! Also saves your stats in a cookie, so once you plug everything in, it’s easy to keep yourself up to date and come up with the best rotations. Also makes macros for you.
FFXIV Clock - Does exactly what it sounds like it does. For an alarm that will make noise regardless of what you’re tabbed into, use these settings.
Crafting as a Service - Find out what gear you need, find out what mats you need, and figure out how the HECK to level DoH.
Forum Thread - Desynthesis Guide - Exactly as advertised. Useful to get through items you can get from ARR and HW, but drops off there.
FFXIV Gardening - How to crossbreed, what to crossbreed, and what success rates you’re looking at. “Worth nothing that the efficiency ratings on FFXIV Gardening are NOT success rates! They are an efficiency calculation based on price of the seeds, how hard they are to obtain, and a few other factors.” Thank you @renofmanyalts for the clarification!
Hunting
Ariyala Hunt Tracker - Ariyala has several other tools, but this is probably by and large the best dang tool on the site. It’s broken down by server, and it relies on peoples’ inputs for kill times. Of note, trackers for Behemoth, Odin, and Ixion are included.
Horus Hunts - Dedicated exclusively to tracking hunts. User interface is a little complex, but isn’t difficult to figure out at all. Does require accounts for reporting, but accounts are linked to Lodestone profiles, making it easier to tell if the site is being trolled or not. Of note: as of May 2019, the site is prone to long load times and frequent downtime, usually due to the (probably unexpected) volume of user traffic.
FFXIV Hunts Pathfinder - For daily hunts, shows you the simplest ways to get them all knocked out in a manner that doesn’t make you want to punch Yoshi-P. Has ARR, HW, and SB pathfinders.
Cable Monkey’s Hunt Maps - Never ask where Squonk is again! Spawn points for ARR, HW, and SB hunt marks, B, A, and S ranks. THIS SITE WILL NOT BE UPDATED FOR SHADOWBRINGERS
FFXIV Hunts - Almost identical to Cable Monkey’s site, but a much more user-friendly layout, with collapsible sections by expansion.
Collections and Logs
Sightseeing Log Helper - Where to go, when to go, what emote to use. Also keeps track of which sightseeing log entries you’ve done, and can filter them out.
Eureka Tracker - THE Eureka tracker website. Create and share NM spawns in each zone, check the weather, even tell people if the local Pazuzu is up or not! Also has a logos tracker!
FFLogos - For keeping track of what mnemes you’ve got, what you need, and what actions you’ve unlocked. Will tell you if you can make something based on your input of what you’ve got in your inventory.
Eorzea Music - Excellent way to keep track of what orchestrion rolls you have and don’t have, as well as where to get all of them. Asks you to create an account, but is free.
Apkallu Falls - A rather comprehensive collection of collection trackers. Does require a login for manual tracking, but covers just about everything you would want to collect except Triple Triad cards.
Glamour
XIV Style - A comprehensive catalogue of What The Heck Does It Look Like, very neatly sorted and categorized.
Eorzea Collection - We all know glamour is the true endgame, and this is the catalogue to look at if you want glamour inspiration or just want to see what other people are wearing. Basically the Vogue Magazine for FFXIV.
Miraprisnap - Very similar to Eorzea Collection; a gallery for inspiration, but entirely in Japanese, with no translation available.
Miscellaneous Tools
FFXIV Squadron - A website that does annoying squadron math for you! Find out if you actually can do that mission or not the (relatively) easy way.
Chocobo Color Calculator - Accurate results for what to stuff your birb with to get the color you want, plus or minus RNG. Because it’s not really FFXIV if there isn’t RNG in it.
FF14 Housing - Images of housing items in the game, as well as where to get them. Updated regularly, very comprehensive.
Housing Snap - A housing magazine, basically, chock full of ideas, inspirations, and really pretty pictures. Of note: the website is in Japanese, and does not seem to have any translations to select from.
Skywatcher Plus - Just in case you want something that does nothing but tell you the weather. Does not include Eureka weather.
Character Card Generator - Fun little character card generator.
Instant Sloppy - Because this list would absolutely not be complete without this. You already know what it does.

Illustrations of my friend groups’ mains! I’d love to make these full fledged paintings when I have the time, and maybe tackle the huge task of some DPS compositions to represent my entire static!
You heard it from straight from Square Enix.
Who to fight: Final Fantasy 14
Paladin: Do not fight the Paladin. You might be able to whittle her down eventually, over the course of several years, but you will be so bored. You will be so bored you will start to do anything just to get her to stop her 3-button combo. the combo will never stop. it will never, ever stop.
Monk: Do it. Fight the Monk. They are chill and cool friends and are always happy to punch and be punched. Fight the Monk and then afterwards kiss the Monk and buy them an early Christmas present, maybe swap glamour tips, it’s going to be a good time i promise you.
Warrior: Absolutely fight the warrior you will win 90% of the time because 90% of the time they will forget defiance. this matchup is a game of wits and you will have a headstart. however, if you are the unlucky few who fight the 10% who remembered you will be absolutely slaughtered and you will have a closed casket ceremony.
Dragoon: fight the dragoon, under any and all scenarios. Any environment, any weather condition, fight the dragoon. obviously if you can fight them near a ledge, absolutely do this and you will win. If you cannot find a ledge, you can instead call them a novice game and they will fly into a rage and mess up their 300-string combo. this is when you strike.
Bard: This one is a tossup, honestly. your opening move should always be to make a scathing comment about their dps. If they take the bait, you have won. If they remain silent and play Foe’s Requiem, you need to get out as fast as you can because death is coming and i wont be able to help you.
Ninja: honestly i have no idea. i dont know what ninjas do. they have secret handshakes i guess??? and a magic fog machine? and they can summon water or something i dont know, there’s backflips, i would not recommend this. maybe bribe your way out of the fight with a wall scroll? you can probably pick one up at like hot topic
White Mage: How dare you. How absolutely dare you even consider this. DOn’t you dare fight a white mage they are just doing their best and this is a wretched scenario.
shame on you.
Summoner: ?????????? ??????? maybe? if you can find a summoner, then i guess you could fight them. its going to be a very unpleasant fight and it would sort of be like fighting a, a, i dont know, a yangtze river dolphin, or like a pinta tortoise, except that theyre poisonous. try to ignore the summon, as the summoner himself is the soft, fleshy target, the vulnerable heart of the summoner’s complex web of diseases and weird cross class skills.
Scholar: similar to summoner only easier to bully. slap away their summon and push them in the dirt. this is an easy and sad fight.
Black Mage: this is a winnable fight in a few different ways. do not bring friends, you will regret this. on a similar note, however, feel free to fight in crowded areas. i guarantee the black mage will pull aggro and get themselves killed without you having to lift a finger. if on the off chance you are alone with the black mage, throw AoEs at them. after three or four they should start screaming incoherently about a “rotation,” and this is when you make your move.
AGAIN. WHERE IS THE LIE.

I got invited to a Local Author forum where I am in October! It’s a weekend, I get to have a night and a table where I can sit down and sell my books and promote myself! ^^
However…as I’m only still trying to get my bearings in NY state, plus my job doesn’t give me wriggle room to get supplies, I’m resorting to this:
Help a crazy woman with a pen show off her writing
If you can’t donate, please feel free to share-anything will help, really! My showing date is October 20th from 7 pm to 9 pm, and I’d like for this to go really well!
It’s me!! I managed to get the entry fee paid, now I just need the rest!
This is coming up soon and I still need a little help getting the supplies! October 20th!
