I was having the same issues and the only fix was to limit my FPS to 60. If I ran with unlimited frames, that’s when directx 11 would fail and I’d crash to desktop.

No more cast bars for Bard! Thank you, Yoshi-P! All hail our lord and savior!
Update: Another possible fix, this one was hardware related. I moved my graphics card to a different PCI slot on my motherboard and have not been experiencing the crashes since. It has been stable for almost a week now, including several hours in Bozja which was unplayable for more than a minute or two without the crash previously.
That being said, I do think there are still issues with FFXIV itself that were exacerbating whatever was causing my GPU to crash. No other games were giving me these kinds of issues, even games which also pushed my GPU to its limits. Combined with all the other folks on the forums that are suffering from these crashes, I think it would be a mistake to just write it off as a user hardware issue and call it "solved".
Will update if crashes recur.
