FF14 Questions (Geared toward PS4) and General!

[R3ck0n1ng]

thanks for the feedback. I felt on my level 10 i was zoning in and out of sections of the town and random villager quests for atleast 2-3 hours.
I may just venture out and kill stuff and see what happens and forget all the boring side quests. Im glad there is vanity armor. Maybe I COULD play an archer or something else then and deal with it.

OH and do Marauders HAVE to tank? or can you specialize in DPSing in higher lvls

and the vanity system is available

Unfortunately, it's only available after you reach endgame. Don't get your hopes up of being able to dress how you like while still playing through the storyline. There is a fair amount of variety in how the gear looks, so you're likely to like at least some of it, but you need to keep upgrading your gear as you level up regardless of whether that gives you better looking or worse looking outfits. (I keep a couple cosmetic gear sets that I wear when doing the sort of easy content that's not dependent on good gear stats, but when running dungeons or doing the harder instanced quests, you need to wear whatever has the best stats for your class and level, regardless of how it looks on you.)

Oh, you can dye most gear, though. That can be unlocked at level 15, and can make gear look a bit better than whatever random colors it came with.

OH and do Marauders HAVE to tank? or can you specialize in DPSing in higher lvls

The only class that can change roles is Arcanist. They start as DPS, but at level 30 can unlock the Summoner job (if they want to continue to DPS), or the Scholar job (if they want to be a Healer), or both. All other classes have just a single job upgrade that continues the same role as they had with their base class. Marauders, for instance, become Warriors, but remain tanks.
