Another week has flown by in Eorzea, so it’s time for this week’s reset recap! What have you been up to this week in the game, and what have you managed to tick off your bucket list?
Also am curious if people are finding this fun or interesting. We’re still a small community here on Lemmy so am trying to encourage people to post and engage a bit, but I also look back since last week’s recap and not a lot has happened 😅 So share your thoughts as well on whether you this we should keep going with the recap!
It’s less that there’s lack of plots, but that the “good” plots are highly contested when available, hehe. I have a small house myself, so I was kind of pushing for a medium plot for the FC so I can experiment with the extra housing slots.
That’s fair. The variant dungeons can feel like a slog, but I enjoyed the music and just looking at the scenery. I actually also enjoyed the fact that I could do them solo at my own pace, but I am more or less a lone wolf type of player. Doing the odd route every now and then probably attributed to less burnout too.
Well, I’m enjoying the Endwalker role quests more than the Dawntrail ones. I can guarantee that. That does remind me that there are some optional quests to tie up the job role quests from pre-Shadowbringers…
Don’t worry, I’m embracing the non-grind mentality. Plus, there’s a bunch of upcoming games coming out (Final Fantasy XVI), so I’ll be occupied anyhow.

And yeah, totally understand about the lack of good plots. That being said if you can afford it I’d still recommend getting your foot in the door so to speak with a view to upgrade later when you can, only because it gives you access to the company workshop and submarines, which while it takes months to fully max out eventually becomes a license to print gil with minimal work. And since it does take a while to get to that point, the earlier you start the sooner you’ll be done.
Plus you can unlock workshop crafts to make the new housing facades. They’re often a good money maker right when the new patches drop!
Funnily enough, I was going to look up whether progress from workshops and the like are transferred when upgrading to larger plots. So I have been looking at smaller plots to at least get things going. Thanks for the information!
And yeah, I actually really like the new cottage walls. Being a big fan of Final Fantasy IX, it really hits me with nostalgia. That’s sort of why I was looking for a plot in The Lavender Beds - I think the cottage walls really suit the aesthetics there. And another revenue source wouldn’t go amiss, haha.
Fun fact as well, if you have one of the custom facades being used on your house and then upgrade to a larger plot, the facade upgrades to the new size as well! So you don’t need to say grab a small one initially and then craft a medium one later, it’ll just upgrade with the plot.
Don’t think it applies to the piecemeal facades though (not 100% sure on that) where you pick all the individual features.
