Your character is temporarily hired to solve a problem that is troubling your nation

Quests: Quests are specific requests from individuals, shops, or organizations, and you may accept or decline as you wish. The conditions for most quests are fairly loose, and typically do not require you boi gold to have a specific job level, ability, or allegiance.

Quests rarely result in worthwhile monetary gain, but the trust and respect that your character will gain are priceless.

How do you play in the same world with your friends?

Within each world, there are NPCs who issue a string of numbers called World Passes. Giving a World Pass to a friend will let that person create a character in the same world as you.

Missions: In a mission, your character is temporarily hired to solve a problem that is troubling your nation, and you will be compensated accordingly.

The specific content of missions ranges from odd jobs to top-secret operations. With higher levels come increased trust and the opportunity to undertake important missions with great rewards... and high stakes.

Fishing: There are many fine fishing spots scattered throughout Vana'diel. By increasing your fishing skill, you can catch valuable fish and other items. And, any fish you catch can be cooked into a variety of dishes!
