Yesterday i was in quarentine with nothing more to do, bored of wow classic and decided to jump onto ff xiv and check if that issue was fixed. It was not, so i checked google for a fix and read sum where a guy forcing the game to be rendered at a higher resolution then the screen. So i did that and it seems fixed now, looks much better.

How can sumthing like this not be official posted on game webpage? if you do a quick search you can assume thousands of players left game as soon as they saw it
Likely because it's not a common issue. Glad you got it fixed though.


So i started a new character and i am at lvl 13 or 14 at the moment still on the first leveling zone, only have 1 class yet, im doing the main story quest, side quests that are nearby the main story one and also have been doing some guild leve quests along with that duty finder. Also i enjoy being a healer in mmoRPGS so im playing a conjurer

So i have alot of questions:

should i still be in that zone? My main story quest is still there but the rest of the quests are under my level.
You can safely stick to the MSQ, don't worry about too many sidequests, just pick up the ones with the blue + icon, as they'll unlock things for you. Other sidequests aren't going to be great for exp, used mostly on alt classes or just for the lore.

should i do all guild leve quests? the level 10 ones i can make them scale to my level, what about the lvl 5 ones that only scale to lvl 9 (i think), should i be doing this 2?
At some point you have to do most of the guildleves to continue the MSQ, may as well do them now. But they can be saved for later.

whats the diference between normal quests and guiild leve quests?
Levequests are repeatable small quests you can use for exp. They excel for exp on crafter and gatherer classes. You get 6 leve allowances per day, which stack up to 100.
You can safely ignore them without missing out on anything.

how much should i be doing the dut finder challaganges? right now did once each senario
All dungeons and multiplayer instances are done through the duty finder. As you progress you'll understand the system better. When you hit over level 50 many more options open up for you there.

should i pick another class now? im a conjurer cuz im a healer main.
Whatever your heart desires on this one. There's no limit to what you can level but the limit of classes themselves.

when should i be moving to other zones? after my story quests tell me to go there?
More or less, yes. But don't be afraid to go exploring.

People seem kinda anti social, i tried to speak to random people doing same quests as me and in the duty finder thing and no one said nothing. Why is that .
It's likely they've been there 300 times already and just want to get it over with.

Should i get a crafting profession now? im not a crafter type player, but no problem if i should pick one now. If i want to craft potions (alchemy) should i also grab botanist to gether stuff to do potions?
Completely optional. Potions aren't going to be useful to you until much later in the game.

How to join novice channel?
A mentor must invite you. Asking around in town should be enough to get you an invite.

I want to be a healer but should i level up as conjurer? do i have any advantage in level up a dps class first then pick conjurer later? One advantage i see is that if i level a dps class now i can switch to AST after level 30 and AST also starts as lvl 30.
While AST starts at 30, you wont get there until you're well past 50. It's in Ishgard which is a city story-locked to you until much later. It's part of the first expansion area. If you really like healing you have two options, Conjurer or Arcanist. ACN is a DPS class, but it's unique in such that it gets two job stones, one a healer, Scholar, the other a DPS Summoner.


Honestly, my advice from every question you asked is "Just do it." Don't let anyone hold you back! :3
