Firmament Quest!

[SoulKhan]

I had been click baited by this one...
Returning to final fantasy after 3 years and have no interest in DoH or DoL.
On that note, can SE reverse the damage that i have done by gaining access to this area and having the duty stuck on my screen?
I do not plan to craft so this quest click baited me into thinking it was something that i needed to unlock for story or a dungeon.

My guess would be that you can remove the quest from your questlog like any other quest - if that fails or if you're bothered by the icon on the map, you can complete the quest without any gathering or crafting required and simply ignore the area you unlock afterwards. By completing the quest you basically unlock the gathering and crafting area (with special mats and vendors), its not part of the quest itself. (Or you simply mark the quest as not-showing in your questlog)

I fail to see what "damage" has been done here - you unlocked something you're not intrested in. Big deal. Having this area available doesnt seem all that hurtful, even if you dont plan on interacting with it. On that note: There are some mini-story-quests available in said area once this restauration stage is finished on your server (regardless of your personal partcipation) - they add to the story of Ishgard after the dragonsong war ended, basically. If you're intrested in getting as much lore and story as possible, those might be worth your time after all. And again: You dont need to craft/gather for this.
"Click baited" is hardly the right term aswell - they made a big deal out of this whole crafting/gathering content for months now and the Patch-Notes would have had all the information you needed.

It seems they are more irritated by the constant Duty log displaying on their screen, the one that all of us have that says "Current phase of restoration complete, no further phases in progress" or something to that effect while we are in Ishgard. To which I say, sorry SoulKhan, but that is staying there til Restoration is done in (probably) 5.51. You are going to have to stay out of Ishgard until then if it really annoys you, or unless another player has some HUD tricks they can share with you so you can hide that.

Thanks for the replies, just going to not worry about it. Coming back after many years off and just learning all the new stuff has kept me busy at least a good month of nonstop leveling jobs.
