Crashed on a Fresh character.

I've been trying to get the problem resolved, login on 2 characters has been rendered impossible, as I spent what few minutes I was able on a 3rd replying to a support ticket I experienced another crash.
At this point I'm under a few impressions:

1) Moving from Gridania/Limsa/Uldah to any zone connecting such as central shroud causes the crash.
2) I have to reinstall the game.. (please.. no)
3) My absence for roughly a year, with a few 'just hopping on' logins somehow flagged my characters as gold farmers (Not sure how likely given I spent a good deal of time in Shadowbringers content and a few Stormblood zones.

Case 1 is seeming the most likely culprit, a mix of 2 wherein files may have corrupted, not sure how.. But I'm going to be reinstalling and praying for good results..

Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

Could you try deleting the locally saved content (My Documents > My Games > Final Fantasy XIV) ?

I'm in the process of reinstalling, but will give that a try. Tyvm
