    I know people have been asking a lot of questions about Path Companions in Final Fantasy XIV, and knew it was only a matter of time before putting something on the front page. Instead of my regular article, I decided to spoil you guys a bit and bring some awesome videos instead.

    Spoiler Alert: These videos contain cutscenes that are part of the Rank 20 and 26 Main Quests, respectively. If you would rather wait and experience it for yourself, you don't have to watch it. Otherwise, please enjoy!

    Choosing Your Path Companion

    This particular video goes over the selection process during the Rank 20 Main Quest.



    Rank 26 Main Quest (Ul'dah)

    This is the Main Quest video for Together We Stand, the Rank 26 video in Ul'dah. This shows how Path Companions function in the Main Quests.



    I know you will probably have a lot of questions on the matter, so let me time to answer the basics.

    Common Questions
    1. How do I get a Path Companion? You must complete the Rank 20 Main Quest in your city. Don't worry though, because this is by far the easiest main quest in the world, and took me about 30 minutes to complete (15 not including the wait time). The gil reward is also extremely generous.
    2. Why can't I get the Main Quest from the NPC? This main quest actually doesn't start at the Adventurers' Guild, but rather at the Market Wards. When you go to the Market Ward, hit Teleport from the interact tab, and select Marchant Ward from the option. From there, the Main Quest will begin.
    3. Does class selection make a difference? I honestly don't have an answer to this question yet.. Until more information becomes public, I suggest you select the class that best complements your main discipline. After all, any proper decision can only benefit you more if it does.
    4. Can I change my selection? Absolutely not. Make sure you take the time to get everything right, as all choices are 100% permanent
    5. How do Path Companions function? The path companions will be with you every step of the way whenever you enter a Main Quest. Zissling is already hard at leveling to bring you the newest Path Companion footage. Until then, enjoy watching the current ones.
    6. Why did you omit the first few steps of the Rank 20 Main Quest? - It is by far and away the most straightforward Main Quest I have done to date. For that reason, I thought it would be better if I jumped straight to the exciting stuff. If the demand is high enough, I will gladly upload Ul'dah's Rank 20 Main Quest in full.

    If you have any other questions, please feel free to drop a line. Otherwise, I hope you liked the video, and will always be getting ready to bring you the latest and greatest video footage. Bye!

      I really dislike sites that are posting the storyline videos on their main page. That's like posting the ending or middle of FFXIII right on the main page a couple weeks before it comes out.

      So I just watched the two videos, and they're both great. Aspect, you did a fantastic job with yours. And Zissling's was awesome too.
      However, unlike Aspect's video, Ziss did not speak.

      Zissling will forever be known as a voiceless entity by me.

      The spoiler alert is definitely there for a reason. I knew well beforehand that certain people would rather experience the quest for themselves, and the last thing I would ever want to do is spoil it for them.

      On another note, these two videos are exclusive to the Ul'dah main quests. Seeing that players from Limsa Lominsa and Gridania will never get to experience this particular quest, it gives them a nice opportunity to watch the videos they will never get to see personally.

      That will happen always no matter what. There will always be someone who will complain about something even though they are warned beforehand. I would recommend though not just bolding the spoiler, but changing it to color red. At least another way to make it stand out.

      Also, are the articles on the main page able to use the spoiler tags? That way in all honesty even before viewing the videos the user had to click the button that says spoiler. Then I don't want to hear complaints heh.

      Just enough preventions...but I know someone will still still complain about spoilers.

      Due to popular demand, I have uploaded the Rank 20 Main Quest Video in its entirety. This has even more cutscenes, so please adhere to the spoilers.

      Thanks for sharing videos, though i didn't watch the rank 26 and 30 ones as i want to experience these myself, but there's 2 things i wanted to ask :

      1. What were the reward for the rank 26 and rank 30 missions ? Since you're cutting videos before we can even see it...

      2. May i ask what mobs you killed from rank 25 to 30 ? As i reached 25, i find it pretty difficult to solo, even as a party, i don't know where i should lead my member. If you could help out, it'd be much appreciated.

      Thanks.
