Where to Start
If you are new to the archive, the best starting point is usually your current expansion hub.
- Players leveling through the main scenario should begin with the expansion they are currently in.
- Players looking for difficulty comparisons should begin with the ranking pages inside each hub.
- Players searching for a specific dungeon can use the expansion hubs to locate the matching guide quickly.
Guildmaster Notes
The dungeon archive is meant to function like a field index — not just a list of places, but a structured record of how dungeon design evolves across Final Fantasy XIV.
Some dungeons are remembered for atmosphere. Some for difficulty. Others for how effectively they teach players the fundamentals of party play.
This page is the front gate to that archive.
