Suggest me new content to try

Heya im a casual player that just finished Endwalker main msq, but I left ton of side quests forgotten so im thinking to level up a new job to complete them, and I want to try new content in the meantime.
I do my daily roulettes every now and then and hunts/special fates when I can too. Everything else is fair game (except palace of the dead, tried it and got bored pretty quick). Thank you for any recommendation

Do Eureka and Bozja

Did you do the Manderville questline? Pretty hard to tell what you’ve done or not with achievements turned off.

Try new jobs, level up crafters/gatherers. Bozja and Eureka is a good idea but I personally can’t stand Eureka’s endless grind. Bozja is fine though and recently did it again on an alt and there was a good attendance during weekend and prime hours on my data center. Variant dungeons? I have no idea what you have completed or not. (How come You don’t have the Argos mount if you’ve completed EW?)

Battle beast tribes?

You say you don’t like PotD, how far have you gone? It’s pretty redundant at early levels, especially with a group that skips everything and just speedsruns it but it gets fun in the deeper levels. You can find statics in PF for that. HoH and Eureka Orthos are faster paced than PotD and they have less levels (you need to find a static for lvls 30-100. You can solo it too but I recommend trying with a group first so you can know what to expect).

PvP (especially Crystalline Conflict, but some people prefer objective-based Frontline or Rival Wings instead).
Alliance Raids (3 for each expansion).
Normal Raids (12 for each expansion, released in sets of 4).
The savage versions of all of these raids.
The ultimate raids which become available after beating certain savage tiers.
The sidequest trial series from each expansion (which contain 3 trials each), such as the Warring Triad, the Four Lords and the Sorrow of Werlyt.
The extreme versions of all of the trials.
Variant, Criterion and Criterion Savage dungeons (currently only 1, there is a new one in a few months).
Eureka and Bozja, which have large-scale raids with 24 to over 50 people at the end of them. There is just 1 at the end of Eureka, but 3 for Bozja and then there is a savage version that is still done.
Blue Mage, which learns enemy attacks and uses them, then competes in the Masked Carnivale, does the Blue Mage Log with other Blue Mages or completes old savage raids synced for the morbol mount.
GATEs at the gold saucer, which are jump puzzles.
Triple Triad, where there are over 377 cards to collect from different content and doing card matches with other players. Some of them come from tournaments.
Chocobo Racing, where you rank up a chocobo and then breed it many times to get a high enough ranking chocobo to do all of the chocobo racing challenges. Racing can be fun.
Doman Mahjong is pretty boring, but a few people like it.
Lord of Verminion at the Gold Saucer, which is also not very popular, but it is an entire mini-game of its own.

A lot of old extreme and savage content mostly gets done unsynced, so people who are higher level just destroy the content easily, but there are occasionally parties in Party Finder that do it MINE (Minimum Item Level, No Echo), which makes it challenging in the way it used to be. There are also discord servers which are used to help get people for it.

Hunts, which you mentioned, have special monsters that players can spawn with a low chance of success by carrying out certain activities in an area. It can be a very fun rabbit hole that sucks you in for months or years.

There is also crafting and gathering, which has content of its own such as ocean fishing, the firmament restoration, gathering in the diadem, crafting and gathering beast tribes and stories in custom deliveries which are similar to beast tribes really.

Most of the rest of the game is either social activities such as roleplaying, organizing events in a free company and glamour, or collecting things (such as mounts and triple triad cards which take you through most of the content in the game).

I didn't include the other two deep dungeons since you didn't seem interested in POTD, but many people do them or try to get the solo achievements.

It's difficult to recommend anything without knowing much about you. Based off of your main job and user name alone, I would recommend either leveling another healer or a tank to widen your perspective on what other jobs and roles go through during content. Taking your current job into one of the non-MSQ dungeons (unlocked via quests), Alliance raids, or normal mode 8-man raids. The other suggestion is to give one of the EX trials a go. If you haven't done any of those yet, I would try hoping into a practice party for one of the earlier ones like Hydaelyn or Zodiark since they are a lot more forgiving when mistakes are made. I basically laid out suggestions from easiest to hardest for PvE. There is even harder content but I want to avoid spoilers if you've just completed the initial EW MSQ.

On the lighter side of things that are just a pasttime, you can give crafting/gathering a try to see if you like it. Island Sanctuary is out there as well.

The only content worth trying.

Can second Eureka, its super fun, you have a lot to do and at the end you’re rewarded with beautifully glowing armour and weapons

Dk what server you're on but Primal Eureka has frequently had 30~40 players each time I've gone in this past week so the grind has been...not super grindy!
I'm guessing with nothing to do til 6.4 (LATE MAY?!) a lot of people are giving it a shot.
I'm lv52 and will head into Hydatos sometime this week, I just wanna complete my Pyros relic first (I grabbed a bunch of elemental glam first)

Can third Eureka and Bozja/Zadnor. It's good for the story, leveling, Bozja/Zadnor in particular is good for relic grinding not only for ShB but also for EW's relic weapons, and it's a good way to make some money while doing it via treasure boxes.

Level blue mage, get all the spells, do the masked carnivale, work on completing the duty log for blue mage... then enjoy the new content you're gonna get around August :)

I'd level a job from each of the major roles, tanking is much less stressful and more fun compared to other MMOs if you happen to be comparing to them. You can flip around multiple jobs and do all your low level sidequests in a variety of ways and might just find a new job that really clicks for you. If you're casual then Hunts are a great way to earn massive amounts of currency for equipping new jobs but you'll probably need to find a relevant Linkshell or join the Faloop Discord server to do them effectively. Also yes, adding the recommendation to look into Bozja and Eureka, Bozja especially is good for leveling in the >70 bracket (can even go to L90).

Beast Tribe quests are a quick option that are top knotch for leveling including leveling crafters and give lots of little rewards like mounts and minions. There's relevant Tribe quests for each expansion, usually one each of a combat/gathering/crafting theme.

I see that you now have enabled achievements. Here’s some more ideas in addition to what has been suggested.


Finish MSQ: your achievements show that you haven’t done the 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 MSQ quests: Alzadaal’s Legacy (6.1) Buried Memory (6.2) and Gods Revel, Lands Tremble (6.3) and the corresponding dungeons/trials.

Battle beast tribe in EW: Arkasodara (for the other battle beast tribes, go buy your mounts if you want, you should have enough tokens). Provides good xp for jobs between lvl 80 and 90.

Do the EW Manderville quest, “Make it a Manderville” for some humor and to get your basic EW relic weapon and its iLvl630 upgrade.

EW Pandaeomonium raids: 4 Asphodelos and 4 Abyssos normal raids

The latest two AR: Aglaia and Euphrosyne

Tataru’s Grand Endeavour questline in EW (rewards a glamour...too bad it has tattoos because it's very neat IMHO)

Island Sanctuary


Some older content which I think hasn’t been mentioned:

Finish getting your dogs and dragon mounts from lvl 70 and 80 extremes. There’s unsynched groups in PF totally accessible for a casual though you may need to upgrade your gear to meet PF requirements (people tend to want fast clears and skip what mechanics they can). You can do it synched too if you want and don’t mind the grind.

Doman reconstruction (essentially dialog questline, opens an extra 20k reward per week at the end)

Sightseeing logs (if you like grinding and some jumping puzzles)

Back again and ye, I enabled my achievements I forgot about make them public lol.
To all people saying Eureka and Bozja I totally will try them. Also gonna give HoH and Eureka Orthos a fair chance since Toutatis said are faster paced than PotD and with less levels.
Blue Mage sounds interesting too and new content in August seems like a bonus to try it.
Crafting and Gathering idk I tried leveling up Carpenter and wasnt my cup of tea (thats the reason why I didnt do any craft/gather tribal quests), maybe leveling other DoL/DoH is different?

This is a lot of suggestions ty, im slowly doing all Gold Saucer thingies specially Verminion, is cool and give you Twintania minion.
PvP I have 0 experience so I prob gonna be a noob there but everyone starts at some point I guess. Idk what are Variant, Criterion and Criterion Savage, are they Endwalker content?

Here https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/w...erion_Dungeons

There are more of those dungeons coming in 6.4

Variant dungeons can be soloed btw. If you do all 12 paths you get a mount.

If you want a group, queuing for them may be a bit difficult atm as once you’ve explored them and got the loot, there’s no real reason to go back so try PF. Personally I prefer to solo them as I don’t have anyone to mess up my choice of path by pulling the wrong lever, clicking on something or killing the wrong add.

You do need a group for the criterion dungeons.


For HoH and EO, you can only get to lvl 30 with a matched party. I suggest you try EO first. I know someone who isn’t a fan of PotD but they like EO. The initial levels are definitely more busy. It’s also good to level up jobs between lvl 81-90 and provides decent amount of tomes for lvl 90s. If you like it, build your aetherpool at lvl 21-30 and then look at PF to go higher.

Btw Aglaia and Euphrosyne both drop a weekly coin you can exchange for 630 gear. You need a coin from each of them.

DoL jobs are definitely easier and faster than DoH. They also provide mats for DoH. They also open up additional beast tribes and side quests.

As for Blue mage, here’s a quick (optional) levelling tip if you want: find a high level friend, do not form a party but go to the beach near Stiltide in Kholusia and start tagging lvl 70 melee adds (range will kill you) with Flying Sardine while your friend finishes the adds for you. You’ll be lvl 70 in no time. Then you can go get your spells. If you go the regular route, Blue mage levels up much faster than other jobs.

The best recommendation I can make to a player who has access to all content is Bozja, despite it's troubled reputation much like Eureka it's very much what you put into it you get back tenfold.
If you are looking for a time sink, try Bozja and Eureka, they will begin a new sort of journey for you with a community within the community; those of us who go for glamors as our end game material.
You can easily level 71-90 for most classes with Southern Front and Zadnor, and get yourself some new looking weapons and armor.

You're first weapon base in Gangos will be free, and it's one of the only ways to get GNB and DNC relics outside of the Manderville Relics. There are no other options there expect trial themed weaponry. Eureka will offer a full set of glowing armor along with a RBG themed relic. Both zone's stories are sad, and if you are attached to your WoL, it will be something you can't binge; but is doable within 2-3 months of passively approaching the content. There are also items and equipment that is empowered in the zone, which you can find through guides. I assure you there are numerous "Getting a relic in 2023" videos for all expansions and ARR. Spend a little time researching what you want to approach, considering your enjoyment first. You mentioned being a casual player, so this may take longer than my estimate.

Do not do an ARR relic unless you are seriously unattached to your time, gil, and sanity.

Heavensward relics are the easiest and fastest to gain, which can be done in a single day. My personal record is 6 hours for the 2nd HW relic onward, but not many people enjoy them compared to the feeling of accomplishment the others bring. This is the most casual player friendly and they can be soloed at all quests with a level 90 in that relic's class, or party finder for density grinding.

The Four Lords quest is among my favorites, and can be done in a day which rewards an emote and glamor that is well worth accompanying Tataru.

Tribal quests have numerous rewards, the moggle dance is often the most sought after. You can also get costumes associated with most of them, which is more glamor and access to rare dyes. Doing an expansion's worth of reputation grind unlock more rewards.

Ishguard has a questline specifically for a glasses emote, and glamor following a certain rival inspector to Hildabrand.

Omega and Eden raids are a must filled with a significant amount of story. Plenty of good glamors there too.

If you like crafting, the crystalline mean and crafting relic weapons are also on the table. Good luck to you and whatever you choose.
