[Suggestion] Set Triple Triad Card Loot from Alliance Raids as Unique

GrizzlyBearcroft — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 13:42:55 GMT

I truly love collecting the cards in this game, and while a lot of them require large grinds, they all feel reasonable with the exception of Alliance Raid Cards.

People can roll on the cards even if they own them, sometimes winning multiple cards at a time, only to immediately sell the cards for very little MGP.

In normal duties, I would not mind this, but Alliance Raids have 24 players.

Mathematically, to have over a 50% chance of winning any individual card in an Alliance Raid, you need to roll a 97.*

Rolling even a "good" number like 85 is only a 1.4% chance of winning

This is made worse by the fact that the raids themselves can be 40+ minutes long.

I feel that making the cards Unique would at least mitigate frustrations, since losing a roll would at least mean that someone else without the cards are the winners, rather than people that don't care for Triple Triad who may have already won the cards and are just planning on selling them for MGP.

Thank you!

Can we make the gold saucer fun and enjoyable again

I used to like hanging out in the gold saucer with others doing GATEs, But now a days after the updates its just not as fun anymore, it seems like a lot of the time I arrive there its always just Air Force One all the time. The fun about the Gold Saucer before was it felt it had group related content like Leap Of Faith which was fun to do with friends together, where as Air Force One is just a Solo on rails mini game from point a to b with no interactions with others. Let me be clear I dont hate Air Force One and the new content for it is great. But it happens way to frequently now and it makes Gold Saucer feel less social. I would like if Square Enix could balance out Leap Of Faith and Air Force One a bit better. Maybe even make newer content for Leap of Faith like they did with Air Force One and balance them both together.

FFXIV DDR: Gold Saucer Rhythm/Dance Competition Minigame

Kayden1010 — Wed, 05 Aug 2026 19:56:11 GMT

A Gold Saucer rhythm minigame inspired by DDR/Theatrhythm and FFVII Remake’s Honeybee Inn sequence.

Players select songs from FFXIV/Final Fantasy music and compete in staged dance competitions. Notes corresponding to controller/keyboard hotbar inputs move across the screen in time with the music, with simultaneous inputs, holds and increasingly difficult patterns on higher difficulties.

The player’s character performs synchronized choreography in the background, with different Gold Saucer/FFXIV locations serving as stages.

Possible rewards: MGP, achievements, orchestrion rolls, titles and unlockable dance emotes and show glamours!

Difficulty: Easy / Normal / Hard / Extreme, with score rankings and bonuses for full combos.

I think this would fit the Gold Saucer particularly well because XIV already has a huge music library, dance animations and a lot of players interested in collectible emotes and more Glams!
