Elf Starter Guide
Bishoujo and Bishounen lovers unite, our fancy Elven kin are here, ready for that ERP- I mean, fabulous fashion contest.
1. Focus your Green Quest,
it's like the MSQ of FFXIV.
2. Ignore yellow quests
minus these three:
3. Your first glider is slow and crap. To upgrade it you'll have to do the following:
Look for one of these I̶k̶e̶a̶ Mirage Isle Portals and use them. Very shiney and glowly, hard to miss. The one marked here is in Lilyut Hills, but they are everywhere, usually close to towns and housing zones and show as a blue circle on the map.
When you get there, head to this location on the map and buy the Improved Glider Design, Enchanced Glider Design and the
Ultimate Glider Design.
They'll be 5,10 and 15 Gilda stars respectively. After you obtained these items you can exit Mirage Isle by clicking a button in the topright of your game client. Next, head to a Carpentry Workbench.
Make sure to unequip your glider, and then interact with the workbench. Look for glider in the popup window and click on Improved Glider Design and just go ahead and click craft! (Big BONUS tip: Equip the glider inbetween upgrades, you'll get achievements and free Gilda Stars for doing this!)
4. Optional but very much so recommended. Pick up a battlepet!

Wolfs have high DPS and tag mobs super fast, so I recommend everyone to pick one up. You can have a battlepet out alongside with your mount.
However. It should be noted that alternatively, or addtionally you also can pick up a Robot battlepet (With LASERS) in the Dwarven Capital. It'll be located in the spot marked below.
