We should be able to mute crafters

[Toutatis]

This has been in game for almost 10 years and it just became a problem? This what happens when people are bored with patch....take break/play other game.

there’s been several threads about crafting sounds here, on reddit and in other places in the past 10 years. Just google FFXIV crafting sounds and you’ll see. This has nothing to do with being bored. Some types of sounds really cause serious discomfort and even physical reactions to some people.


That sound hurts me too and but the worse were the bards playing on top of each other until I found the option to mute them. Despite that, the first thing I do when I land in Limsa is use the aetheryte to get away from the noisy crowd.

Now I have a house near a MB and there are no crafters nor crowd noises around so that’s what I use. Although houses are hard to get and require +3Mil, you could buy an apartment in a city (I have one on each of my characters) . You get a cheap teleport point and there is a MB, retainer bell and chocobo stable right in front of each apt building and there’s never any crafter around. There are some vendors in the building but you can also have some in your apt, along with an armoire, retainer bell, aesthetician and fc chest.
