What your current goals/objectives? Things to work toward?

[tinythinker]

Often the word progression, when used in the context of MMORPGs, is taken to be synonymous with raiding. And raiding is a great activity.

Yet a sense of progression is what keeps many players returning to their favorite MMOs, and it can take many forms (this list is not exhaustive):

- 24 player raids (trying them for the first time, practicing doing mechanics, practicing personal bests in performance, etc.)
- 8 player normal raids (trying them for the first time, practicing doing mechanics, practicing personal bests in performance, etc.)
- 8 player savage raids (trying them for the first time, practicing doing mechanics, practicing personal bests in performance, trying for group speed and flawlessness, etc.)
- ultimate raids ((trying them for the first time, practicing doing mechanics, practicing personal bests in performance, trying for group speed and flawlessness, etc.)
- practicing/learning content or a job in a dungeon or normal trial, perhaps getting over anxiety related to group content
- leveling up a new job (combat, gathering, or crafting)
- learning a new role (tanking, healing, damage dealing)
- progressing through the MSQ
- going through all side quests in a zone
- exploring all of a zone
- getting flight in a zone
- making a particular amount of gil or MGP
- trying or improving at PvP
- keeping up with Beast Tribes/leveling reputations
- going after particular achievements in any area of the game
- earning certain mounts, pets, or glamour items
- making friends/socializing
- creating or managing events for your FC or others
- trying RP, developing your character's RP, or starting RP sessions
- etc.

Again, the list doesn't try to include all possibilities.

What are your current top goal(s) in the game? What are you currently working on or planning to get into soon?

clearing ultimate

[CazzT]

I'm an addicted Relic Hunter. I will, eventually, have ALL of the Zetas, Luxs, an Eureka weapons. Cuz apparently I'm a masochist.......

[HyoMinPark]

Clearing TEA when it releases, and eventually going back to clear UCoB after so much on-and-off prog for it.
Farming all 3 Ultimates for all the weapons I want, and maybe even a decent parse on them.

My goal for the next raid tier is to beat my current highest performance percentiles. If I can continue to chase leaderboards and see marked improvement, then I’m relatively satisfied.


As for non-raiding goals, getting everything to 80 and farming all the primal mounts at some point. Gotta keep up with my primal mount collection once I have more free time.

[SDaemon]

Currently getting my retainers situated as well as leveling and gearing some alt jobs by crafting the new facet gear and augmenting it. Beyond that my more long term goal is to finish my EX trial barding collection, just have Hades and Suzaku to go. Once all that's done just gotta wait on more EX trial minions to get added.

[AphraelAmarantha]

Nothing really. I already finished 5.1 msq. I had thought about getting the 2b glamour but after running the alliance raid several times and getting nothing for it, I’m not real motivated to keep relying on rng to get what I want; some things are just impossible to get when it’s pure rng. I might try to get 460 gear but I’ll probably stop because I’ll get too bored trying to build tomes, lol. I guess my actual goal is to just wait for 5.2.

[shao32]

right now leveling other jobs and get a delirium rework for DRK since i already cleared savage and im full bis, so not much apart of that.

[Communion]

CRAFTING, CRAFTING, CRAFTING! Trying to max 80 out LTW and BSM while hitting MIN. Really changes the tone of the game after spending so much time loving the Shadowbringers MSQ and hitting all the Duties, Dungeons and Raids. Like some sort of Zen experience now.

[SamSmoot]

1. Get all my crafts up to 80. (Do Ishgard recon quests)
2. Run Copied Factory and others until I have full set of 460 gear.
3. Continue Beast Tribe quests for pets & mounts
4. Earn gil from gathering, and possibly crafting.
5. No idea

[Sated]

A whole bunch of goals and projects right now, honestly.

- Pixie dailies for story
- Leveling my alt's DoHs to 30 so he can desynth EX drops
- Finish crafting DoH/DoL sets for friend and myself
- Finalizing EB plans and picking a date
- Decorating my apartment/house/rooms
- Daily gardening/retainer maintenance
- Catching new 5.1 fish to fill Fishing Log
- HW and SB sightseeing
- Leveling FC's submarines for expeditions
- Daily treasure map for Sunday treasure runs
- Leveling alt's WVR/BLM/WHM
- Leveling alt's Squad
- Leveling main's DNC/DRG
- Leveling main's Trusts

But realistically I log in, water my onions, manage my retainers and then get distracted gposing until someone asks if I want to do roulettes.

Other projects that are far less normal:
- Creating an alt on each datacenter and getting them to level 30 to soak holiday rewards for when I want to visit people/houses
- You know how some people watch/document birds they've sighted? That's me with Tias and Nunhs. I'm going for the alphabet

Something I'm always working on even at home and work when I'm not playing is just thinking about my characters and building RP profiles/backstory/interactions for them in my head. I don't actually RP, I just character build. 24/7
