FAQ

Who created this website?

Arianne Rosecrown from Zalera on Crystal data centre. All icons were sourced from Flaticon.
 

Why did you create this website?

Because there was a dire need for a community-created public website that compiles Final Fantasy XIV PvP user guides for the non-Discord-using player base, as many did not want to join Discord servers to improve their PvP skills or find relevant resources.
 

Who created these guides?

People who play Final Fantasy XIV. Each of these guides has been appropriately credited to them.
 

Where did you find these guides?

They can all be found on social media, in r/FFXIV subreddit threads, or in public-facing channels across various PvP Discords.
 

Is this a fully comprehensive directory of all player-created PvP guides in existence?

No. This website is only intended to be a one-stop-shop knowledge gap closer for the greater FFXIV player base. I also try to avoid adding video guides because they can all be easily searched on YouTube – use your search filters, people! – while Google Drive documents or other websites are less searchable.
 

I have a question about a guide. Who do I ask? Can I ask you?

I am not an all-knowing PvP expert, so please do not ask me any questions about these guides. The guides in this directory have been carefully credited to their authors for a reason. There are many players out there who are much more skilled than I am, and thus, much more equipped to answer any of your questions. Unfortunately, Discord communities are still the best way to get the best answer you need. I recommend the PvP Revival Discord as that is the central hub for English-speaking PvP players in Final Fantasy XIV.
 

I created a guide and it’s listed in this directory, but I don’t want it listed anymore. Or there has been an updated version, and I want you to update the link. Or there is a guide here that is outdated and should be removed.

  • Link updates: Please do not direct message me on Discord about needing link updates. If there is an update, please just ping me in a channel on the PvP Revival Discord (or any other PvP Discord server we share), and I will update it when I have the time.
  • Guide removals:
    • If you are the author of a guide and would like your guide to be removed completely from this website, please send me a DM.
    • If you are not the author but thinks a guide should be removed because it’s too outdated, please write a more relevant one updated for Patch 6.5+, share it with me, and I’ll add it.
  • Other concerns: Please ping me in a channel on the PvP Revival Discord (or any other PvP Discord server we share). All other direct messages concerning this website will be ignored.
 

I am a guide author and I don’t mind my guide listed here, but I would like my credit info and/or contact info updated.

Please send me a direct message on Discord! ♥
 

I want to share a brand new guide. How often will this website be updated with new links?

Ideally, not often; I work full-time at an office job. This website was created as a hobby, and again, is only intended to be a knowledge gap closer for the greater FFXIV player base. The guides on this site are links that are most frequented (or most recommended) by those in the PvP community. This website is not intended to be comprehensive, or else websites like Icy Veins wouldn’t exist.
If you want your brand new guide to be shown here faster, share your link frequently and organically in PvP Discord channels and I’ll keep an eye out to see if it catches on. (Note: Video guides are less likely to be added.)
 

How do we thank you?

By sharing this website with your friends, and then queueing up ranked Crystalline Conflict on your respective data centres. Let’s see some new faces in the Diamond+ rank tiers!
If you want to be extra grateful, you can follow me at Twitch for inconsistent streams of mediocre PvP gameplay.
