If your new to a dungeon.

Personally, I find the text dungeon guides in most wiki sites to be somewhat of a middle ground. They provide info about the major obstacles and mechanics you'll encounter, but at least your own run is the first time you actually see the place.

It's still a spoiler in the sense that you already know what to do and don't have to learn it the hard way, but it doesn't feel as much like a spoiler if you're getting to see the place for the first time as you run it. So I read up about dungeons before I run them, but I don't watch videos of them.

Any text guides worthy of looking at? I've found IGN guides to be abhorrent insofar as how many things are plainly wrong (or outdated) in their guides when it comes to FFXIV.
