go get richer than Rowena my girl

I've been wondering how people generally give and receive commendations in FF14.

Since most regular dungeon content isn't particularly difficult, do you actually pay attention to how everyone performs, or is it more of a quick "commend the tank/healer and leave" kind of thing?

Personally, I'm curious what makes someone stand out to you. Is it good gameplay, pulling extra packs, keeping the run smooth, being friendly in chat, or something else entirely?

And for those of you who farm commendations for achievements, do you approach it differently?

I'm interested to hear how everyone else does it!

EDIT: Damn, I didn't think this post would get this many comments x) Thank you all for sharing your ways guys, will be quite a read later when I finally sit down to read through it all LMAO

Nice to see this wholeseome story get some attention

When you recruit a character in FFR, you get to see a montage of footage from their game of origin during the process. For XIV's rep Y'shtola, it shows a lot of scenes from 2.0-4.x stuff, but a really surprising point of note is the few scenes they include that involve the player character show this Lalafell in a DT fending set.

Feels weird to see a promotional-style footage for FFXIV from official Square Enix media not using the default approved Meteor but instead seemingly one of the developers characters using footage recorded for the game.

A real curiosity, and kind of a fun note. I wonder who worked on the game that got their WoL semi-canonized in a divergent timeline.

Now there are 3 of them

But this time he's old!

I must say watching cutscenes while playing a male roegadyn in the grisly bear outfit is very amusing.

He refuses to wear the body costume.

i am aware that it took me 10 working days to realize he was casting ancient flare.

They look delicious!

Reminder: As of Patch 7.4, Job and Level restrictions on Glamours no longer apply.

Reminder: As of Patch 7.5, most Dyes have been consolidated to Standard Spectrum Dye (available for purchase for gil from NPC Vendors) and Wide Spectrum Dyes (traded for with special currencies or from events). Research which dyes fall under those categories accordingly.

Before asking for help please read below

• Check ALL slots are filled except off-hand
• Check that even non-hint slots are filled.
• Check that both rings are filled
• When using dyes, make sure they're in the correct dye slots
• Check your dye names to make sure they are exactly the same or the right type
• Glamouring items counts for the hint slots and dyes
• If you are still having issues, please include a screenshot of your results screen from the Masked Rose. It will be easier for us to help troubleshoot your issue

What is the Fashion Report?

The Fashion Report is a weekly mini-game in the Gold Saucer with the NPC the Masked Rose to earn 60,000+ MGP and items to unlock from another NPC such as glamour, and housing items. For the mini-game the Masked Rose gives out 4 hints for players to discover the results to. The correct gear, correct dye and just filling out gear slots will net you more points. You get 10k MGP for participation and then once you reach a score of at least 80pts you will get a 50k MGP bonus. For achieving the maximum score of 100pts you will earn an achievement which gives you the title "Fashion Leader". Additionally, the NPC next to the Masked Rose called Kasumi will gradually unlock glamour and furnishing items in her shop based on the total number of points week over week you accumulate. Once you have 600pts total you will have unlocked the entire shop. Unfortunately, you are only able to accumulate 100pts per week for the shop unlock so at minimum it will take 6 full weeks of the Fashion Report.

ANNOUNCEMENT: New Fashion Report XIV site that allows you to lookup a database of all known Hints and their associated gear, look up details on items such location data, and build an item collection to customize your own Easy 80/100 that will recommend items based on your current collection or items you could acquire if you don't have one.

Stuff like the wayfarer’s tabard, cryptlurker’s cuirass, with split capes, shoulder capes, short capes, just anything where it feels like it makes some sense instead of just clipping through. Yes i pay way too much attention to details that don’t matter

Hello! I was wandering around and went to Yuzuka Manor, the Namazu place, and I encountered these two rare hanging scrolls (I don't think I've seen them anywhere else, unlike the other two there, and I have done a reading of the calligraphy in the left one before), and the calligraphy on the right one is curious.

My reading does not make sense, as The One River in Japanese appears to be Munikō instead of Mujikō. Any insight will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Finally finished the base expac last night.

The whole quest made me cry...

Krile's meeting with her parents...

Erenville saying goodbye to her mother...

The whole point was closure which we dont get in real life.
