Final Fantasy XIV Services

Since its launch, FFXIV has launched several expansions, and in order to keep up with the development of the plot, various organizations and related characters from Eorzea are always updated.

As one of the more important organizations in the game plot, although Scions of the Seventh Dawn disbanded at the end of Endwalker story, each member still has different responsibilities in the subsequent DLCs.

If you are a player who has only joined Final Fantasy 14 in the past two years, in order to avoid encountering these members while playing the game without knowing their background stories, the following will introduce you to the top 10 members of the organization.

Basics Of Scions Of The Seventh Dawn

Originally, the organization was formed by the remaining members of Circle of Knowing and Path of the Twelve after The Calamity in accordance with the wishes of Louisoix.

As a secret organization dedicated to serving the country, Scions of the Seventh Dawn usually provides advice to the leaders of Eorzea through informal channels. After a desperate battle with XIVth Imperial Legion, the organization was made public.

The purpose of the formation of Scions of the Seventh Dawn is to protect Eorzea from various threats and the invasion of Garlean Empire. The organization was originally headquartered in The Waking Sands in Vesper Bay, and later moved to The Rising Stones in Mor Dhona.

In the previous expansions of FF14, you can join the faction as The Warrior of Light, explore Eorzea with members, and earn FFXIV Gil by completing quests in order to obtain more gear and resources to make yourself bigger.

1. G’raha Tia

This character is also known as Crystal Exarch. Since Shadowbringers, he has served as your main scenario ally. This reassuring sense of companionship is also the main reason why he deserves to be top 1.

In addition, G’raha Tia is also an excellent mage. Not only is he charming, but he is also very good at leading large-scale operations. He is a bold and calm character.

2. Y’shtola Rhul

Y’shtola is a reliable mage like G’raha, but prefers to study esoteric methods. She has white hair and light brown skin, and is a very attractive character in appearance.

In terms of personality, Y’shtola not only has leadership ability, but also likes academic debates and enjoys the feeling of being the focus of everyone.

3. Tataru Taru

As a lovely Lalafell, Tataru takes on the duties of receptionist at the headquarters of Scions of the Seventh Dawn. If you plan to join the organization, she will be responsible for guiding you first.

Although Tataru is not good at fighting or crafting, no member can match her in business and trading, so she is also the secretary and coin keeper of the organization. It can be said that without her, Scions of the Seventh Dawn cannot function properly.

4. Urianger Augurelt

Due to his childhood experience, Urianger is obsessed with prophecy books and various related materials. As a result, his words and deeds always have a sense of ridiculous pretentiousness.

But the reason he is an indispensable member of the organization is that he actually has reliable emotional intelligence, can coordinate the relationship between people well, and speaks out what you think for you who are not good at expressing yourself.

5. Alphinaud Leveilleur

This cute boy has a twin sister named Alisaie. Because they look alike, they are often confused by people who know them. Alphinaud has an extraordinary artistic talent and therefore has good popularity in Studium.

Perhaps because of his younger age, Alphinaud sometimes reveals a sense of pretending to be mature, but as the plot deepens, he is also growing up and eventually becomes a qualified guide.

6. Thancred Waters

Thancred was originally a talkative person who liked to chat up women, but after The Calamity and learning that Minfilia had become Word of the Mother, he became cold and tough.

However, due to his friendliness and reliability, Thancred is always the most trusted patriarch of the other Scions of the Seventh Dawn.

7. Alisaie Leveilleur

As Alphinaud’s sister, Alisaie seems to be calmer and more mature. She is strong-willed, and although she is sometimes emotional because of her cynicism, she is still a compassionate girl at heart.

In Dawntrail, you can choose her as a partner in the dungeons Worqor Zormor, The Skydeep Cenote, Vanguard and Origenics, or other trials to provide you with treatment.

8. Krile Maya Baldesion

Krile is a lovely Lalafell like Tataru, but the difference is that although she is kind and intelligent, and knowledgeable in many fields, she is also good at seeing through people’s hearts, and she always likes to make fun of others.

But honestly, who can blame a cute child for a prank that does not cause any actual mistakes? Besides, Krile actually cares deeply about her friends and will apologize immediately when others feel offended.

9. Estinien Varlineau

Because of hatred, Estinien was tough and rude at first. He not only expressed contempt for what he thought was weakness, but also hated those fake and pretentious social interactions.

But after entering the organization and becoming your companion, Estinien was gradually impressed by his companions and became a comrade-in-arms worth relying on with his reliable fighting ability.

10. Riol Forrest

Compared with other members, perhaps because there is less relevant information, Riol always seems to complete his work quietly in the organization, so that you sometimes ignore him.

However, as an intelligence officer who collects information, Riol is indeed an indispensable member of Scions of the Seventh Dawn. In addition, he is trustworthy because of his plainness.

In addition to the above ten members, there are actually other scions, but these ten may appear more frequently and deserve extra attention, so we introduce them to you. Thank you for reading.

Summer and the holidays that come with it should be a time when the participation of various games has increased. The rising temperature makes playing games at home your best entertainment, but the recent FF14 has annoyed players.

To be honest, player dissatisfaction is almost the norm in every gaming community, because there are few game content or activities that can satisfy everyone (except for the special existence of Stardew Valley).

The main reason for the public outrage of FFXIV this time is not the old-fashioned problems such as the lack of creativity or frequent bugs in the new patch, but it involves social history and whether you can play games on the PC as you wish.

Next, we will introduce you to the relevant situation based on actual performance.

PC Platform Updates Will Be Mainly Based On Win 11

According to the latest news, Final Fantasy 14 development team has decided to stop the mainstream update of the game on Windows 10 from October 14, 2025, and shift the focus of the comprehensive PC update system to Win 11.

I have to say that this is unfortunate news for most FFXIV players, because although the game is available on multiple platforms, PC players are the mainstream, and Win 10 users should be many of them.

Although technically you can still play FF14 on Windows 10 after October 14, if any problems occur and cause losses, such as lag when settling dungeon rewards and losing some FFXIV Gil, the official may not perform maintenance and compensation, as in the past.

In addition, although the development team also stated that it will continue to provide some technical support for Windows 10 users based on specific circumstances, it is informal and not guaranteed, so it is best not to count on it.

Why Make This Change?

First of all, in terms of the newness of the version, Windows 11 is the latest and occupies the largest market share of relevant users. Although Win 10 is close behind, the system will no longer receive mainstream feature updates starting around the fourth quarter of 2025.

From this perspective, Final Fantasy XIV’s platform focus shift is in sync with Windows officials, which is understandable. After all, no matter how the game develops, it cannot be separated from the support of devices.

Based on this, the minimum CPU requirement for FFXIV will also change from Intel Core i7-7700 or higher to Intel Core i5-8400 or higher. It is expected that you will eventually need at least a six-core CPU to continue playing on Windows 11.

How To Deal With This Change?

To be honest, if you still plan to play FF14, the sooner you update your Windows system, the better to minimize your in-game losses. And all extended security update programs are free, you only need to wait for the update time.

If you don’t want to upgrade your Windows system for the time being but want to play FF14, you can also transfer your gaming progress to macOS, PlayStation or Xbox consoles through cross-play and cross-progression functionality.

What’s Wrong With Patch 7.3 New Gear?

If the changes in Windows system only bring you a little trouble, then the problems caused by the new gear seem to be a bit offensive, especially for those players who pay attention to the history of American continent colonization.

The New Gear Conflicts With The Style Of Tural

Final Fantasy will release Patch 7.3 in August, and it is likely to be the last patch of the current DLC Dawntrail, so it has also attracted much attention.

Among all the known new content of Patch 7.3, you will find a well-made set of gear belonging to the new dungeon Meso Terminal, and the design seems to be inspired by Spanish conquistador era in the 16th century.

There is nothing wrong with this style itself, but the embarrassing thing is that Tural, the background continent of Dawntrail, has a clear Central and South American style. The combination of the two makes it difficult for you not to think of that bloody colonial history.

Even if you are an Asian player, after learning the story behind it, it is difficult not to feel disgusted with this set of gear and doubt the intentions of the design team.

Soon after the release of the information and preview of this set of gear, many FF14 players publicly expressed dissatisfaction and even anger, claiming that if this set of gear is put into the game without changes, they will cancel the game subscription.

“Dark History” Related To Outfits

If you are a new player, you may not know that this is not the first time that FFXIV has angered the public over issues with countries or regions. Next, we will introduce you to the relevant “dark history” according to the timeline.

Far Northern Attire

In 2023, Far Northern Attire launched by FFXIV was condemned by the relevant non-governmental organization Saami Council because of its obvious Sámi cultural style.

The council stated that this special style is part of Sámi cultural property, and the design of the game infringes on their intellectual property rights, and asked the game to remove the outfit. But in the end, nothing happened.

A Costume Of Stormblood

In 2019, Final Fantasy 14 also launched a costume in East Asia-style DLC Stormblood, which is close to the costumes that were required to be worn during Japanese occupation of Korea from 1910 to 1945.

Although this costume is no less offensive than the new gear introduced this time, it was only available in China at the time, so it was less criticized.

To be honest, we really don’t understand why FFXIV always “plays a marginal ball” on such serious issues and arouses public anger. But no matter what the purpose is, it will definitely make more players abandon it in the long run.

The above are the two main manifestations of Final Fantasy 14 that have caused dissatisfaction among players recently. And among them, mainly hoping that the development team can solve the problem of the new gear before the launch of Patch 7.3.
