Really, I’m not sure how I can easily prove to you that I played Final Fantasy 14 solo without using the marketboard or roulettes or parties or retainers outside of uploading the 100 hours of ffxiv footage I have, but I’m pretty sure I’m the only one insane enough to care anyway. I mean I showed almost every ffxiv craft and gather I did.

Can you play FFXIV solo? Singleplayer FFXIV even? I don’t even know what to call this. I mean it’s definitely not ffxiv money making. I might be an Ultimate Legend UWU rdm pov, but I’m not sure how that’s relevant. Maybe this is a FFXIV solo guide? Final Fantasy 14 Warrior solo? Maybe one day I’ll do a Eureka Orthos solo run like a normal person.

Beating Titan Solo no echo was pretty ridiculous. Maybe I should be a high level ninja pov now.

  1. All I can say is holy crap that answer was ingenious. I always just hammered him down with lots of damage but that just doesn't work with these rules, so congratulations on both finding the answer and getting it to work!

  2. Very well done! Remember that using the role action True North can let you get some Positionals Damage on enemies even though they are facing you, if you find yourself having to use a Melee DPS for fights in the future.

  3. This is the sort of creativity I love to see in challenge runs! I always knew ninja was the best job. Also love the choice of Dragon Quest music for bgm lol.

  4. Higher level floors give more exp in PotD. Most people use floors 51-60 for leveling since it's the best exp/min. But usually it's done in DF so idk if it's still as efficient solo

  5. It's been great watching you play through this, its honestly amazing seeing you come up with all of these ideas and workarounds. Can't wait for the rest of this series as I'm sure it'll be one I come back to.

  6. Just found and binged this series while doing my own crafting grinds. You're doing some great work here and I'm excited to see this continue and you've definitely earned a subscribe from me.

  7. Very cool solution to fighting titan solo! Im honestly shocked you had enough hp to live as a lvl 50 dps lol, i guess a testament to how much survivability nin, and melees in general, actually have.
    One tip i would say is to use true north for when the boss isn't cast locked and theres no way to get positionals. The damage, especially on certain melees, adds up to be a lot.

  8. I fail to see how using quest gear is considered "taking the easy way out" in a challenge like this considering it is quite literally meant as a REWARD for completing quests, solo or otherwise. I do not understand how a reward for doing a solo quest solo is breaking the spirit of the challenge. Can someone explain this to me? Because to me this seems like nonsensical added difficulty for either the sake of adding difficulty or failing to understand a simple concept.

  9. Hah, you're pretty lucky to be doing this now, a long time ago, the Normal Gaol was permanent until broken, but not the Hard or EX ones hilariously, so the moment it came up, if no one else was alive, or if you were solo, it was an instant wipe, just, came up and fade to black.

  10. Probably wouldve been a better idea to pop the dex potion right as the final phase starts, to give yourself the most time to take advantage of it + mug + trick attack bonuses

  11. I know this came out two months ago, but there is a patch of sylphs and morbols that are level 43-44 that'll get you levels faster than palace. (in larkscall right after the bramble patch) Then you can move on to the areas south of dragonhead for efficiency.
