Exact Attacks, or Just Attacks as they were known in the other versions of the game, is a bonus effect when using the Burst Attack skill. It'll lower the risk meter, keep the burst gauge near full as well as doing extra damage. Sounds wonderful right? And it is! It's just not all that easy…

If you're anything like me, you love glamorous vanity items and collectibles in MMOs. This is a Final Fantasy XIV Mount guide for obtaining (almost) all of the mounts available in Final Fantasy XIV broken into categories. I say "almost" because there are two mounts that are only available to players from the original iteration…

Bonus stat points are awarded upon leveling up, for a total of 35 that can be spent. This is individual across all jobs so whatever you put into Paladin will not be transferred to Black Mage. The only exception to this is Summoner and Scholar as they share the base class, Arcanist. New players, and even…

Mostly related to academic and corporate fields, it consists on using game mechanics in real life environments to provide improvement like better learning, teamwork and/or productivity. But the tool is not intended only exclusively for institutions. Providing a way…

One of the new features of Heavensward was the Undersized party option. Frankly, I think the name should be Unsynced rather than Undersized as it fits a little better. Undersized implies that you must have less party members than the standard. So for standard 4-man dungeons, this means 3 members and under, and for 8-man…

If you've done Binding Coil of Bahamut, be prepared to feel a sense of déjà vu. Like the first floor, you must have an item level of 170 or higher to enter. To access the Cuff of the Father you must accept the quest titled Steel and Scream which appears after you complete 'Disarmed.' There are…
