Since there's a real lack of a great info site for XIV like XI's wiki, and there doesn't seem to be anything on here either (I've tried searching...) I'm formally requesting an FAQ for the Grand Companies.

How to join, what are the quests, what rank you need to be etc etc...


I was very disappointed to find out last night that I couldn't get the quest from The Maelstrom as a 23 miner, and I have no idea if it's because of a lack of mission progression, pre-requisite quests, or if I need a high enough combat class etc etc.


All the guy says is I have the smell of iron ore about me...
