I’ve been setting up my alt for raiding this past week and it’s been a ton of fun! I talk about that experience in this video and we discuss if it’s worth it to make an alt in Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail!

Cool video. Ever thought about putting ur AOE rotation on R2 + L2 ?
I split my classes over two characters for several reasons. One has caster/healer only jobs and the second has tank/melee (not a fan of ranged). yes extra raid, more glamour space etc. BUt it also puts me in the zone of sorts where my mentality slighty changes between the two.
The MOST efficient way to cap on weekly tomestones is HUNT TRAINS! One train will nearly cap you on heliometry tomes.
36 marks, 10 tomestones a mark
Your alt is a beauty 💜
For those who aren't averse to buying boosts, DT is probably the fastest expansion to speed run through. All the dungeons and trials except for the last one in the MSQ have duty support and there's almost no actual gameplay elements so you just skip cutscenes most of the time and move on to the next NPC to talk to. I currently have 5 leveled alts, each with 2 lv 100 retainers and each patch with raids, I have 4-5x more tomestones to use for crafter gear materials. You can also easily get ALC or CUL on each alt and get 1m per 17 days via levequests.
Ok so yeah I commented to early. Job and story skip.
Another reason to have an alt would be if you have a weekend static and dont want to gimp a chest for your group
the lootsystem is just garbage when you are not in a static
Hey Vit keep up the great content. One thing about the weekly tomes is doing hunt trains. Just one train almost fills the weekly limit. Which is less than an hour to complete. Not sure if that's something all players enjoy but it is time efficient imo. Faloop discord ftw!
I have an alt that's omni 90 and Dawntrail's story was so bad I don't even feel like speed running it.
Damn brother, that's such a nice POV. "Just to raid more" – true. Only four bosses, and this is a very good POV for people in statics!
Also Elezen are so underrated
Your vids are impossible to get past the 5 minute mark of.
2:40 it's wild to me that the devs have been confused at why people have alts when they literally designed the system to limit the loot people can get on one character. Like… come on.
Nice timing with this video. I literally just started leveling an alt just so I can go practice in pf outside of my static.
