Hi all I am new

Just wanted to say hello. I just got the game,I have always loved the FF series.
I have played about an hour so far and WOW so much to learn. I am fairly new to MMO's. I have only played Spiral Knights and then recently played DragonSoul for a very short time. So I am going to slowly try and learn all I can so as to make the game enjoyable. Is there a wiki by chance? Heck I don't even know how to heal myself yet when fighting something lol. I will learn though. Hope to meet some of you in game.

Welcome to the community. I hope you enjoy it. If you are curious about curing yourself, you need to obtain a conjurers weapon and learn the first cure spell. That will help. When you learn that you can transfer your cure spell to your pug. Also your pug has a way to cure itself. The ability is called Second Wind. Seems the poster above me has given you some good links. Good luck and always feel free to ask anything since you are new to MMO :)

Welcome and have fun!

Thanks so much for the welcome, the info and the links! They are much appreciated. I can already tell I am going to have a lot of fun with the game.

Welcome to the game! Good to see some new faces on Fabul =)

OMG!! He mentioned another game/games besides FFXIV someone alert the mods to have this thread shut down!

You may have been introduced to GuildLeves.

Don't do the ones for level 1. Save them for when you hit level 10.

Kill the critters outside city, you get lots of mats and shards and level you up efficiently. Those sell well on the Marketplace and should get you started. Do remember to employ a slave(retainer) first.

I would suggest the lodestone as the first source of information, but since they've changed the game so many times they often forget to update some of the minor guides there. Such as the battle guide is still not updated.

My best recommendation would be to just try to fumble around the game. Diving into manuals might help you find neat shorthand tips, such as macros or command lines to help you streamline some of your gameplay, (E.G. typing in /pcmd add Player_Name allows you invite someone without the hassle of navigating the GUI) but most of the basic stuff you should be able to just pick up on the fly.

Welcome to you Deb!

You may browse the forums if you like, just be warned: General Discussion is full of discussion and QQs and TOR and Tera and WoW and ...you get the idea (oh FFXI also!). Other sub-forums are ok.

If you need help in anything, don't hesitate to ask. We like helping people, and more if it means that they'll stay for a while :)
The other posts have already said enough, but try going to the New Player Forum - you might find people with similar problems as you right now that you started.

ps: Maelstrom is the best GC.

Welcome to the best MMO ever

I think this is a good wiki: http://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Main_Page

We don't take kindly to new folk 'round here ...or old folk.

Ok.. mainly people in general.
Maybe if you were a fluffy animal...

Here's another site gaining popularity. It's got a tool that helps you choose which gear you should focus on acquiring, as well as a nice item database.

Have fun!

welcome. play at your own pace :)

Don't turn to the dark side...

But it will have one starting January 6th 2012, at a reduced price until 2.0. At which time we will be given another 30days free gameplay:)

OMG, what an incredible group you all are. Thank you so much and you never know, Hypnotoad, I may just be a fluffy white animal in disguise :) Sorry about the "other" games I mentioned, I can assure you they are nothing like Final Fantasy. With the wealth of info and links you have all given I should be able to pick up a lot. :) Oh and Happy New Year everyone.

One of the most beautiful OP seen on this forum! ;) (I'm serious)
