Data Usage

[HeavensHell]

Hi all! I'm going on vacation out of state soon and I'll be on the road for several hours. I've heard that this game is very friendly on mobile data plans as it doesn't constantly stream a large amount of data but I'm wondering how accurate this is. My question is does anyone know how much data would be used by FFXIV during a 1 hour session? I plan on tethering my phone to my laptop to play when other people are driving.
Thanks in advance

I play at work a lot which I can't use company internet to play so I use my laptop with my phone as a wifi hotspot and FFXIV consumes around 10mb/1hr of data hope that helps.

Oh wow just 10mb an hour? I didn't expect it to be THAT low :O

For six months I had to live off cell phone data just to play because we had no internet service at all in the area I moved to (thankfully got fiber now). But yes, it really low and I was able to go a whole month playing if not using data for anything else. However, if you get an update, it'll suck the life out of data in no time!
