You have no Savage / Extreme / Ultimate content...

Usually social stuff with FC, we do old content to clear it for mounts and stuff.

We did alex 4s, 12s, Omega 4s and Omega 8s this weekend, also some Byakko.
If we are not doing combat related stuff, we host Events such as Glamour shows and Map parties.

If its just myself, im happy with a Podcast and something grindy ... maybe a relic weapon, Ishgard gathering, or Eureka.
Roulettes and Beastmen tribes keep you busy.

There is still plenty to do its just not "new" stuff sadly.
Beside that i do my Ex trials and try for mounts.

On why im not doing Savage, i kept pugging the first 2 Turns of the Savage tiers, but i had multiple really really bad parties on chaos ... we throw that word around a lot but it did feel "toxic" so now im happy not doing that anymore.

As a serious answer, if you are running out of stuff to do, you could put the game down and do something else til the next patch. Having endless meaningful content is impossible.

Personally this is what I've done in the past. I usually lose it about midway through the patch cycles and then come back and go hard when an expansion hits. I'm trying to stick with this the whole way through this time.

There are definitely plenty of things that I could be working on without a doubt, but none of them have quite hooked me at the moment.

But when you get new ilvl gear every few months, it's kinda pointless lol. The Ilvl Sync also gives you another reason why spending hours to get ilvl500 Savage gear pointless.

Raids are about the journey, not so much the destination.

Do you really think people do Savage and Ultimate for ilvl?

Probably cap weeklies and grind mounts/minions. As it is, Savage and Ultimate are pretty much the only reason I play after the hype of the patch/expansion is over.

You're asking someone who's never experienced the content their opinion on what someone can get out of it. Kinda silly imo.

Gathering, crafting, daily roulettes, leveling sub jobs (though almost finished this), role playing, taking screenshots, doing hunts, fates, exploring areas, housing, triple triad, mahjong, chocobo races, gold saucer in general, mounts, minions, achievments... there's plenty to do outside of HE content tbh.

Do you really think that if Savage started offering nothing but level 1 glamours, there'd be exactly the same number of people doing it afterward as before?

The number probably would be the same, but the longevity of the content would be much shorter. Savage in its current design lives pretty much the entire two patches before next tier is released thanks to how coffers and books system works. If it was giving only glamours, it would be forgotten faster, as getting 1-2 items isn't same as collecting sets for few weeks, sometimes for few jobs.

I don't run anything beyond normal content. So, I do the daily / weekly hunts for nuts, sometimes collect materials to sell (I only craft for myself), and run 1-2 dungeons for tomestones if I feel sufficiently awake.
I still haven't attempted Eden's Verse: Furor yet.

I'd get into housing if I could build a full plot farm without house.
