    Fun stuff to do...

    I'm at the end of my tether with this game now in all fairness and really looking for advice on what to do in this game more regularly.

    My daily routine is dailies followed by expert roulette and then I log out. Twice a week I go into Coil and clear it and then I log out.

    What exactly is there to do?

    Well, for instance:
    • The other roulettes
    • Extreme Primals
    • Coil (Savage)
    • Syrcus Tower
    • Side quests (like Hildibrand)
    • Gathering
    • Crafting
    • Daily Beastmen Quest (Sylphs, Amal'jaa, Kobolt, Sahagin & Ixali)
    • Hunts
    • Treasure Maps
    • Behests for Seals so that you can send your Retainers on a Venture
    • Working on another class
    • Getting a Novus weapon
    • Helping fellow Company members with things they need doing

    ^This and don't burn yourself out by playing too much. It a bad habbit to over play a game to the point you get tired of playing.

    Try other games for a bit since we only get 1 Major Update every 2.5 months and we're only 2 updates away from the release of 1st expansion (arriving "Sooner than expect")

    You know what's funny. People with only 4 classes to 50 who say their bored and have nothing to do. I mean.. are you even going to attempt to unlock any crafting.. ever? I'm not going to press the issue anymore.. You've explored what, 20% of the games full potential.. All I can say is, this game is just not for you.

    I believe they said they've, "reached the end of the tether", signifying they have nothing else to do.

    Fun is in the title.

    Honestly all the tasks in this game are very mundane. You either need to do them all every day to unlock rewards, or run things once a week like ST.

    As for crafting, don't get me started please... Crafting is AWFUL, it's a broken system where you need to actually level all crafts up to get all the skills required to craft high level things, that's not fun.

    I've cleared T9 and I'm i110, I'm finding no joy in the game.

    Well lets see here. You have 3 battle classes that are not 50. None of your DoL are 50 and you have not even touched DoH.

    Your minion collection is a little sparce. It seems like there are plenty of things left to do.

    Not only that, but they can be profitable. As you are leveling your gatheirng or crafting classes, you can spirit bond lower level materia that is still in high demand, you can run pre-endgame dungeons in crafted gear to hunt for minions and the chance to convert into one of those extreamly valuable Savage Aim IV or Savage Might IV materia. You can play the market, buy items when they fall below market norms and relist them at a higher price. You can try to collect the extream mounts, you can can work on upgrading your relic weapons or finding a cool combination of gear to glamour. You can play in Frontlines or simply aim for a difficult achievement. There are lots of things to do.

    You need to ask yourself what you want out of the game. If you are satisfied with just dailies, roulettes, and coil, then you are doing all you can. But if you want more variety, try new things.

    The crafting system is unusual, yes, but it is not necessary to level all crafts. You can level one or two and make loads of gil on low and mid level HQ gear. The return-per-hour on the mid level gear can sometimes be more than the i70 or i90 gear. If you level your DoH first you can gather all your own materials which will make the items you creat 100% profit.

    Actually, you're at a coasting point, and you should be happy you are. It's not healthy playing this game all day, and that's coming from an addict. I'm at that point myself, except I spend a bit too much time gathering/crafting for gil because I'm trying to get those stupid supras. And well, it you really can't find anything fun to do anymore, it's time to quit. Not only will you save money by no longer paying for subs, you'll free up much needed time to play other games, go outside, get a girlfriend, etc.
