Role Quests

From Final Fantasy XIV Online Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Role Quests are the replacement for existing jobs' Job Quests beginning with the Shadowbringers expansion. Players must complete at least one role quest chain to complete the Shadowbringers Main Scenario Quests. Role quests in Endwalker and Dawntrail are optional for main scenario progression but provide other rewards, notably the ability to dye Artifact Armor in the given expansion. In Dawntrail, role quest completion is also needed for Battle Mentor qualification.

Unlike job quests, role quests do not form continuous storylines with those in previous expansions, so players do not need to have completed a previous expansion's role quests to unlock a later expansion's quests.

Crafting and Gathering classes instead progress to The Crystalline Mean in Shadowbringers, followed by The Studium in Endwalker and then Wachumeqimeqi in Dawntrail.

Shadowbringers

Shadowbringers Role Quests are unlocked upon completing the level 70 main scenario quest Main Scenario QuestWarrior of Darkness. Completing at least one role questline is mandatory to finish the level 79 main scenario quest Main Scenario QuestThe Light of Inspiration.

These role quests focus on assisting bounty hunters in Norvrandt to exterminate powerful Sin Eaters known as the Cardinal Virtues.

Endwalker

Unlike Shadowbringers Role Quests which are available early on in the Shadowbringers Main Scenario Quests, Endwalker Role Quests become available around halfway through the Endwalker Main Scenario Quests. Specifically, they require the completion of the level 85 quest Main Scenario QuestAt World's End. Each questline involves working with a leader of the Eorzean Alliance - Gridania for tanks, Limsa Lominsa for melee DPS, Doma for physical ranged DPS, Ishgard for magical ranged DPS, and Ala Mhigo for healers - to hunt down monsters known as blasphemies. Completing a given questline will unlock the ability to dye all Endwalker Artifact Armor for that role.

Dawntrail

Dawntrail Role Quests are unlocked at level 92 in the Dawntrail Main Scenario Quests. Specifically, they require the completion of the quest Feature QuestUncouth Customers, which is unlocked during the level 92 main quest Main Scenario QuestThe Feat of Pots. Similar to the Endwalker Role Quests, each role goes to a previous region in the Source - Coerthas and its surrounding lands for tanks, Hingashi for melee DPS, Gyr Abania for physical ranged DPS, Thavnair for magical ranged DPS, and La Noscea for healers. Completing a given questline will unlock the ability to dye all Dawntrail Artifact Armor for that role.

The role quests focus on working with representatives from Turali settlements to recover artifacts that have been stolen by members of the Passage of the Unbound, a villainous organization.

This questline, unlocked by completing all previous Dawntrail role quests, will be released in patch 7.16.

Trivia

  • According to the developers, role quests replaced job quests due to the difficulty of developing many job-specific storylines each expansion. This is due to the increasing number of jobs per expansion and the increasing fame of the player character in their respective jobs over time. [1]
