Game play...main story

I am level 35 Paladin. I cannot get admitted to a company. They keep telling me I am too low level and need to do more of the main story line. I did everything in my journal except two quests in Limsa Lominsa. I am in Gridania right now but cannot get to Limsa.

I keep wondering if I somehow switched jobs early on, before I had done the main story. But I have no idea how to determine which job I should be using. Every guild I go to asks if I want to join. That does not sound like I am a member of that guild.

All this goes back to paying more attention to bugs than what I was doing in Beta. LOL

Anyone know how to get the next story line quest when you have nothing in your journal?

LOL... Someone else was shouting for help with this earlier but I did not watch to see if they found out what to do...

What I have been told:

"Go to your main quest provider and get the next quest." ... Didn't work Momodi is ignoring me. Same in Uldah.

"Look at your journal." ... Did that. Nothing but two quests in Limsa, which I cannot get to.

"Its a bug." ... This may be the best answer so far, but it is not very helpful.

I had the same issue with a 15 storyline quest and my friends currently still hasn't shown itself. I think retracing how you would've entered the city helps to get these triggers to reactivate. For me it was entering the adventures guild through the elevator after getting their through airship...(as part of the emissary missions). So yeah, retrace your steps and hopefully it reactivates.

have you tried going to talk to Mionne in the Adventurer's guild, I wonder if she has a quest for you. Because it sounds like you haven't done the main story even to the lvl 10 Main Story quest. Maybe even go check the Bannock in Central Shroud.

I don't mean to spoil anything, but you do not get access to be able to join a grand company until you have defeated Ifrit, if you haven't gotten that far in the story line, then you are missing some quests. If you've done ifrit already then ya, it sounds like a bug.

Retracing ... I will try that. I got stuck on a quest in Central Shroud in Beta and it cleared today so maybe that messed me up.

That tells me that you have not done the level 15 quest. So that's a starting point at least. I'm guessing you finished a quest and didn't pick the next one up. You can type in /recommended and it should appear in your list of quests. I don't know if this is only per area so you might have to go area to area around your city until you find the story quest.

It sounds to me like you may have done the quest for airship travel but not returned to Limsa Lominsa to do the (introduction to using) Duty Finder dungeons.

A few others I met in Beta had done the same thing; the journal itself directs you to continue giving the letters to the leaders in each city for the Remembrance Ceremony (so people were simply going city to city and getting the cutscenes). But, after you complete that objective they also ask you to return to the Adventurer's Guild in Lominsa to accept those Dungeon Quests, which I don't believe show in the journal itself. Either way, if you haven't used Duty Finder to do Satasha (TTD & CBM), you may need to pick up that quest to continue in the Main Scenario.

main story quests are marked with a meteor shaped symbol rather than the usual oval

you need to complete ifrit to join a grand company

ifrit is level 20~

I had a similar issue with the main quests.
I knew where it was, but the quest icon wasn't showing above the persons head because of a graphics glitch.
I logged out and back in (this was 4am EST, so I was able to do that), and the quest showed up on the main map, but couldn't see it on the person.

Anyways, i ended up having to rotate the camera in a really weird angle from a certain spot and it showed up and was able to do it.
But the moral here, is check the maps thoroughly. You may have to go to each zone to see because they don't show up when scanning the maps from other zones.
The recommendations list also doesn't show anything from outside your zone (which is dumb)

Basically the progression for the quests at that point is... at level 15 you get airship pass, need to visit all 3 cities, 3 dungeons between 15 and 20, Ifrit at level 20. Then you get your Grand Company/Chocobo quests after Ifrit fight. You should be able to trace back where you are by what you haven't done.
I was actually just thinking this today though. There are so many main storyline quests, what happens when you simply forget to engage the NPC for the next quest, and you go off to do something for a few hours/days... there really should be a way to tell you where to go for your next main story quest, because it honestly could be anywhere.

Yeah that's what the /recommended feature is that I mention. It will show you all the quests in the area that you can do at your level with priority going to a story quest.

hello

10chars

I am having the same problem. This is a huge bug. Like I have no idea where to go. Originally I wasnt a high enough level so I couldnt accept the main storylin quest.

Now I have no idea where that was after I leveled up to the appropriate level.

Like this is retarded. I literally cannot play the main story because of this bug.

HELP

What I really hate about this story questing is how you can be roadblocked from progressing any further due to requiring to find a party. Been trying to get past Lord of the Inferno for two days now using duty finder.

Travel to each zone, in each zone click on Duty button in bottom right of screen, select recommendations, find the Main story quest that way.

Not sure if there is a guide out there yet... probably not since nothing past level 30 was ever tested ... but you may be able to look up your completed log and ask around for what comes next.

It's not a bug if you FORGOT where to pick it up from not being high enough level to accept it in the first place.
