QoL Suggestion: Hidden UI while playing

ThomasOfEger — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 19:32:16 GMT

Hello,

I would like to request a quality-of-life feature that lets players customize what is hidden when the UI is toggled off with Scroll Lock (the default key for hiding the UI).

The issue
Currently, Scroll Lock hides the entire UI. This is great for screenshots, but it makes the mode unusable for actually playing the game, since the map and other essential elements disappear along with everything else.

My request
Please add an option that lets players choose which elements are hidden and which stay visible when this mode is active. For example, players could keep only:

the map (opened with M),
NPC dialogue text,
NPC nameplates for easier navigation.

Why this would help
This would allow fully immersive questing and exploration without a cluttered screen, while players could still navigate and follow the story. It would be especially welcome for players who enjoy story-focused play and want to experience the world as it was visually designed.

Thank you for considering this suggestion!

FC community content

Aldhen — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 16:31:57 GMT

Just a thought, I know there is a bunch of things like

-Shared Fates (Wish we could create a raid group as we are usually more than 8 members doing this event)
-Raids, Trials, Dungeons
-Maps
-Mount farming
-Other sociable events created by the player

What about having a progress ribbon in EC with FC specific rewards?
What if we could have an FC island where we can build an FC house as a community?
When i say build, I mean an interface where FC members can apply material to like 10000 logs of X items.
Unlock bridges on the island to build to give more access to more plots.
What if you could unlock land plots for FC members to have their houses on?
FC farming where not creature roam the pasture but your Chocobo's and gardens to grow the food for them?
A Commission building where FC members request items for FC crafters to make.

There is some much that could be done, but obviously not all caters to everyone, these are just my thoughts.

Thanks for reading

Photosensitivity and Epilepsy – Concerns Regarding Battle Effects in Dungeons, Trials

Dawnbreak88 — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 15:31:17 GMT

I'm sure this topic has been discussed before, but I'd like to bring it up again, particularly regarding raids and trials, but also dungeons.

I suffer from photosensitive epilepsy, CPS/FIAS (complex partial seizures/focal impaired-awareness seizures), and tonic-clonic seizures, alongside other neurological problems. Unfortunately, I've experienced difficulties with the intense flashing lights and visual effects from both players abilities and enemy/boss attacks.

I know we can reduce other players battle effects, and I've already done so. This option has been an absolute godsend! However, my main concern is that there doesn't seem to be an equivalent option for effects coming from monsters and bosses.

I've managed to reach the Dawntrail expansion and have had an amazing experience so far, with plenty of help from other players. Unfortunately, that changed when I encountered The Arcadion, which I had to abandon rather quickly because its visual effects triggered my seizures.

I've also heard from other players that several upcoming dungeons and encounters contain similarly intense flashing effects. This genuinely worries me and has made me anxious about continuing to play, as I never know when another encounter might trigger a seizure.

Before anyone suggests that I should simply stop playing, that's not what I'm asking for. I genuinely love FFXIV and want to enjoy all the content like everyone else. It's incredibly discouraging to feel that parts of the game are inaccessible because playing them could put my health at risk.

I do my best to make my gaming environment comfortable, adjust the room lighting and keep my medication within reach. However, I'd really appreciate SE considering additional accessibility options, such as:

Options to reduce or simplify enemy and boss visual effects.

Reduced intensity, brightness and frequency of flashing effects.

Alternative visual indicators for attacks instead of intense flashing animations.

Clearer photosensitivity warnings for encounters containing potentially problematic effects.

I understand that visual effects are important for communicating mechanics and making encounters engaging. I'm not asking for mechanics to be removed or made easier, just for alternative ways to display them without unnecessary visual intensity.

I'd also love to hear from other players who experience photosensitivity or epilepsy. Have you encountered similar problems? Have you found any settings or workarounds that help?

I'm not here to attack SE or criticise the developers, or attack anyone! I simply want to raise awareness of an accessibility concern that can have very real consequences for players like myself.

FFXIV is a wonderful game, and I hope that players with photosensitive epilepsy can be given more options to enjoy everything it has to offer.

Thank you for taking your time to read this <3

Upgrading Normal Raid Gear

Moqi — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 11:50:45 GMT

We are drowning in pointless (and for the most part outdated) tokens in this game so I am very happy about the EC changes to gear, but I was confused why Savage is dropping Raid Gear.

Can't we just have the same token from Savage upgrade Normal Raid Gear twice instead of obtaining a new set the first round of Savage and then upgrade it? They are visually identical except for visual effects which we should be able to toggle off now.

trying to find the character of a family member who's passed?

tbhitstofu — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 11:02:24 GMT

Hey friends!
Been playing FFXIV a while now. Recently I received some items of my cousin who passed away a couple years ago, some of those being a 1.0 copy of FFXIV for PC with a few redeemed codes inside for legacy items like the Onion Helm. I've tried to ask Square Enix support if they could locate my late cousin's character but of course because of TOS they can't. Unfortunately his socials have no trace of his character and none of his IRL friends knew about it either - but it seemed like he played for a long time. He had the physical albums of all the expansions up to Endwalker. I'm really interested to see what he had achieved on his character but I don't know where to start, I don't even have a character name or the FC he was in. Any ideas of things I could try? Thanks everyone, have an incredible day.

Please fix the Hairstyles that sill lose bangs with Hats/Hoods

iMaximusRex — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 09:30:46 GMT

In patch 7.3 many hair styles with bangs were adjusted so that the bangs don't become hidden when wearing hats/hoods. Unfortunately, some hairstyles were not updated and still have their bangs truncated.

Please bring all hairstyles in line with this update.

パッチ7.5 インスタンスエリア「名もなき浮島」だけでスタッターが発生する

Toru_Toru — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 07:26:53 GMT

スレッド名：パッチ7.5 インスタンスエリア「名もなき浮島」だけでスタッターが発生する
発生日時：2026年11月3日 15:00頃
発生頻度：必ず発生
ワールド名：Garuda
キャラクター名：Taa Toru@Garuda
リテイナー名:なし
NPC名：なし
モンスター名：なし
クラス／レベル：黒魔導士/100
パーティメンバーの有無：ソロ
種族：ララフェル♀
ゲーム内時間：不明
エリア名／フィールド座標：名もなき浮島
ハウジング情報:なし
手順：
名もなき浮島エリア内でカメラを動かすと、画面全体でスタッターのような細かい振動/ブレが発生する。
一方、他のエリアやインスタンスエリア（レヴナンツトール、石の家（未明の間）、アバラシア雲海など）ではカメラを動かしても細かい振動/ブレは発生せず滑らかに画面が動く。
他のエリアでは問題ないことから、名もなき浮島エリア特有の現象と思われる。
また、通常時だけでなく、ムービー時でも名もなき浮島ではスタッターが発生し、他のエリアではスタッターが発生しない。
システム設定で仮想フルスクリーン/フルスクリーンを切り替えても変わらず細かい振動は発生。

元々、手元の環境のFF14で仮想フルスクリーン時にFreeSyncが適用されずに、どのエリアでもスタッターが発生していたのを解決するため、各種設定のON/OFFとランチャーの再起動を試していた。（この時はフルスクリーンに設定するとスタッターが収まっていた）
　※（）は現在の設定
　AMD Adrenalin設定:
　　・設定->ディスプレイ->Adaptive Sync Compatible　（ON）
　　・ゲーム->Final Fantasy XIV->ディスプレイ->AMD FreeSync　（ON）
　Windows設定：
　　・システム->ディスプレイ->グラフィック->ウィンドウゲームの最適化　（ON）
　　・システム->ディスプレイ->グラフィック->Final Fantasy XIV->ウィンドウゲームの最適化　（ON）
　ランチャープロパティ：
　　・"C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\game\ffxiv_dx11.exe"のプロパティ->互換性->全画面表示の最適化を無効にする　（OFF）
結果的に仮想フルスクリーン設定でもFreeSyncが適用されスタッターが収まり、7.3～7.5までのメインクエスト進行中の各場面では問題無かったが、名もなき浮島で同じスタッターが発生する。

LF FC on NA time

Yamazakimiki — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 05:07:35 GMT

Looking for a FC that runs on NA time. I love my FC but I can never run anything with them because of the time difference. They run things at 230am-430am Eastern and I can not join them. Anyone able to point me in the direction of a FC that runs on NA time?

FanFest for Materia

Xenielle — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 03:41:47 GMT

Firstly, I want to say a huge thank you to Michael-Christopher 'Koji Fox' & Toshio "Foxclon" Murouchi for coming out to Australia for PAX this year. You both did an awesome job with the hotsauce challenge. I'm one of the many members of the crowd behind you in the stage photo.

As much as we appreciate these appearances, Materia is very much an independent region from everyone else. We've been our own DC for many years now, and I feel that we get a little neglected down here when it comes to events. Isn't it time Materia got added to the FanFest rotation? Surely you can add one more event a year and fit us in. Just look at the attendance and reception you received at PAX! You know a Materia FanFest would sell out in a heartbeat!

When you take into consideration that Australian and New Zealand players are included in the 'other' region when it comes to purchasing FanFest tickets, it means we have to travel 20 hours on a flight or more just to get to the location, let alone any other expenses on top of that.

Please seriously consider this for future years of FanFest. I know I'm far from the only one wishing this will happen!

Why are the Avalanche sets genderlocked, including sunglasses and earrings?

MitraDor — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 00:33:35 GMT

It's crazy that this is still a problem by almost 2027 with new items. I play a fem lalafell and personally I don't like how Tifa's attire loos on her, I'd rather have a Barret outfit as a machinist glam or whatever. Also the sunglasses are not facewear and are headgear instead, which is very strange for a late Dawntrail addition.

Hope this gets corrected someday!

Certain phrases were not being accepted in Keybound Brawler that should be

Catwho — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 00:02:38 GMT

My group just very nearly lost in round three because of the phrase:

"I'm sick of all this!"

appearing on the airbuster.

I typed it perfectly about four times, but it was rejected every time. There was no shield up in front of it.

I think that some of the phrases may be bugged?
