Final Fantasy XIV - Side Quests Worth Doing (A Realm Reborn)

"Don't do side quests." Advice you've probably heard. Advice I, myself, have given out. But in that sea of yellow explanation points there are some that aren't complete garbage. Here are the side quests in A Realm Reborn that are actually worth your time to do.

Ah yes, "yellow quests that should probably be blue"

[ginger-ham]

If you haven't done the Moogle deliveries side-questline, you'll never be able to truly comprehend the motherly warmth that Sisipu radiates.

[fairlyenjoyable]

Dang, I've been playing for nearly a year and have never heard of the Moogle quests. Thanks for the heads-up, Kupo!

IIRC, there are two ARR side quests that reward thavnairian onions, which are used to level your chocobo, or (perhaps more importantly) sold for a lot of gil on the market

I get that most prefer these were blue, but I always liked the feeling of stumbling on a side quest while trying to get some XP that went a bit extra and gave me a pleasant surprise. Feels like how side quests in other games worked where some lead you on a wild chase and surprise you with something crazy instead of marking "HEY THIS IS THE ONE WHERE YOU GET SOMETHING SKIP EVERYTHING ELSE"

[Otacanthus]

I remember doing the postmoogle quest at some time in the past long ago. The part where you get the "new class" went right over my head since I hadn't unlocked any new classes. I realized like years later what the joke was supposed to be

[bugzbunnysghost]

can you please make more videos like this. i really hate the feeling of missing out on some cool shit.

[Puggle-bot]

I compulsively clear all quest icons I see. I can't help it. I DID however... sell all my materia before I knew better lol Doing my craft quests, I am now at the mercy of the market board lol Post Moogle is on my list, and I'm clearing all the extreme trials I come by. Definitely want the mounts now though. Also never knew the card game was in! Definitely have to track that down! Loved the nostalgia trip of just hearing that music though :')

The thing is, if you _want_ to do all the sidequests, just do them. They fill out the world so much more and they'll make you feel really connected to the characters and people of the place you're visiting, and the main questline reflects this surprisingly often.

<watched vid wearily and flashback-ridden> As a completionist, I did them all. Really expected some achievement, like Loremaster in WOW. Fact that I didn't still give me that horrible feeling of having missed one somewhere, somehow. (to forestall the inevitable: yes, I did THAT one, the one hidden inside the mansion of youknowwho for youknowwhat)

[Blazingbeard]

Wow thanks man. That's some old content digging. You really took one for the team! Gonna rewatch to determine which I wanna do first. Think I wanna get those guns for my magitech armor.

[magicwizard]

Of course I learn about the lv 50 crafter materia after I just discarded all my materia to make inventory space.

[johnnymartinjohansen]

What a great video! I've been playing for years, and never knew about the moogle quest line.

Thanks :)

[paulready]

Nice video, did the cat and dog quests. Didn’t know about the other ones. The moogle ones look pretty good. New sub.

[SaintMeizthee]

Even from a few months ago, this kind of vid of yours are really helpful especially for a free trial like me. Arigatou🙏🏻

[ryud]

hey man if you could do this for all the expansions thatd be great. Id smash that upvote like death stranding

[HereticalGamer]

Brand new player on Xbox, here!

I just hit 50 and am in the transition to Heavensward and am trying to clean up anything in ARR before pushing further.

This was excellent! Thank you!

[ezairix]

Wow, you did something 99% players don't even bother doing. amazing work! <3

[eithiana]

I actually enjoy doing every single side quest. But I see why most don’t. Yeah there are some hidden stuff it’s fun.
