I just started and I'm so lost - Help!

[Foghorn755]

got it! is there a way to automatically compare stats on gear? like, instead of having to look at both sets individually is there a way for it to tell me what stats are better/worse than my currently equipped. i know it does for armor, unless I'm misinterpreting it, but is that a feature yet or no?

[Bixby]

No, it's not. SE has mentioned looking into making a change for that, but that was patches and patches and patches ago, and there's been nothing since.

Hey I just hit 50, what should I do now?

first thing I'm gonna do is finish the main story, i also basically finished my bard quest line, and at some point i wanna get lancer up to get the abilities from that... but like, nows the time to ask!

how do dungeons work? are there like hard mode dungeons or heroics?

[Enkidoh]

Basically, yes, finish the main storyline! Doing so unlocks end game stuff - a lot of players feel that the 'real' game only starts at 50 and upon completion of the 2.0 story, so it is definitely worth going and finishing! (Plus you get your own magitek armour mount!).

As for what you can do after, this is a good list of everything currently available (far, far too much to write here - scroll to the bottom to level 50): http://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Gu...Locked_Content
