Leveling your archer and don’t know where to start? Well, you came the right place! Archers are a great class to solo with in Final Fantasy XIV. This archer leveling guide will guide you after reaching Level 30 on your FFXIV account. Read on for more information below!

Reaching Level 30
Once you’re done with the last Level 30 ARC class quest and have Wind bite, you’ll more or less be ready for whatever’s coming next – we’re talking dungeon exploration, world boss fights, and more – on your Final Fantasy 14 account! From here on, you have two main choices: level into Bard, which requires Pugilist 15 and ARC 30, or the alternate job which has yet to be released.

Becoming a Bard
Bard is a job that specializes in buffing allies with songs and other enchantments. Bards use bows in combat. This job is improved upon the archer class through the addition of group buffs. They have all the abilities and traits of Archers. They can also use all the cross class abilities of Pugilists and Lancers. As you have learned from the previous guides, Bards utilize the stat DEX, which increases attack power. The level of your Bard is equivalent to that of your Archer.

What’s Next?
As a Level 30 player, you’re going to be spending your time questing if you want to, clearing dungeons and Guildhests when they become available, and grouping up with fellow players to complete high leveled FATEs. You can also just grind the levels away if you want as that’s a viable option as well. Basically, you’ve reached that point where you don’t have to rush leveling. Just go forth and explore what the game world has to offer! Make sure to pack up with some food, maintain your buffs, and enjoy!
