IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR THE WORKSHOP: I STRONGLY recommend using ffxivteamcraft.com/ instead now - there is a workshop tab on the left side. Here you can press "Import state from database" on the top right side, which will automatically load current supply/demand and tell you exactly what to craft in a much more convenient way!
please make a short video on how to use the teamcraft page. it's confusing and I'm not sure how to set it up, is it automatic? do I have to manually set everything up in teamcraft? which buttons do I press on?
I originally made a video that took about 20 hours to make on Island Sanctuary, but my editing software crashed which ended up corrupting the save file. I couldn't bring myself to make another video of that scope but still wanted to release something on Island Sanctuary due to the many requests for it. So here's me rambling for 24 minutes with some light editing. Hope it's still helpful! Edit: IMPORTANT NOTE: Because a lot of people are using the spreadsheet, the most efficient items to produce might change later into the week because of overflowing supply. I recommend setting up your first two days for stacking Groove and then deciding on what to do on the last three days if you want to get as many cowries as possible. If you don't care too much, you'll still get plenty of cowries by setting it up once a week though.
for those who've yet to set foot on the sanctuary, it might be fair to inform them that mounted flight is not possible until the sanctuary achieves rank 10 and the pathfinder mk V quest is completed.
One thing I would add is that having your animals cared for will lock you out of releasing them. Also while I wouldn't necessarily recommend using the service for the pasture. It is totally worth it for the croplands, because not only do they collect the plants and water, but they also replant the crops in the same amounts so you don't even need to think about it.
Maybe I missed it in the video (apologies if so) but in the Workshop, it's much easier to sort by Category in the drop down when picking what to make! Instead of reading each item, you group them by Category then just check which ones you have the mats for :) Your videos are great, thank you so much!!
Hi Joisn, thank you very much for this guide. I've not really started Island Sanctuary due to it seemingly rather complicated. But your tips and guide here made it a lot easier to understand! I'll get started on mine now :)
One thing to note about watering.... Rain on the island will water your crops, so if it rains while you're gathering or hunting rare creatures, that covers you for the day. As for the Duty Action, as someone that uses mouse to move and keyboard for the actions, I'd learned when doing a certain post Stormblood solo duty that I could bind the Duty Action to a key :D I found that G was available (from default settings). It's right next to where your hand would rest for using keyboard for movement (WASD), so it's easy to reach from that position. (I use CTRL-G for duty action 2, which I haven't seen in a duty that I remember, but has come in handy on the island and is also unused by default)
thank you for putting out this video! it may be old but even while on rank 8 i can still use most of these tips and the teamcraft site! saves me spamming the potions in the workshop just because i got the mats for it xD
There's a sweet spot on top of the mountain. It has 11 nodes so you can harvest stone, quartz, iron ore, and leucogranite on loop! (have to unlock flight by getting to level 10)
Very good guide. I always forget which animals I had fed. I noticed on pc that if your are feeding them and forget if you fed one or not is that the name of the animal will disappear when fed. As long as you do not change the mode. If you change to pet or anything the names will reset.
In terms of tedium, I very much encourage paying the mammets to take care of the crops. It's a little too tedious to bother with when having to work the menu to go between planting the seeds, choosing the seeds, and watering multiple plots over a large space of travel. Plus, unlike the animals, it's only 5 seafarers per plot. 20 plots at half the cost that it takes to care for 20 animals.
Thanks for this guide! I unlocked it and then left it alone because it honestly felt a bit overwhelming (and also I wanted to get my crafters/gatherers to 90 first).
could you please make a video on how to use Teamcraft for Island Workshop? it's a little confusing how to use Teamcraft and I'm not sure what to do for island and Teamcraft webpage. thanks
heya i have a question, currently in the doc's solver there's no more "groove mover", where am i supposed to look for this? i'm sorry if it's such a basic question but the doc for me is information overload
Looks like they are currently working on it to make it better. For the groove movers, I would simply recommend to go with anything that looks alright depending on the demand & supply tab (look for high popularity primarily). Don't worry too much about optimizing that too hard beyond getting your groove going. I think it's probably not worth the headache. They likely have some big plans due to how popular the spreadsheet is.
I have been using ninja invisability ability to catch all animals with 100% catch rate. Sometimes you need use more than 1 catcher, but the animal can never see you and the invisability doesnt drop after using the catchers. Dunno if bug or intentional, hope this helps :)
Hmm...interesting. Gonna try this later. I initially experimented with approaching animals while walking and in a way where they won't see me but of course invisibility could work!
@Alexis Webb Hmmm i dunno why. ive literally caught every animal. Even literally waited for twinkle fleece to pop for the ultimate tester lol and i caught it no problem after 10 nets. Used invisibility approaced from behind and used the net from max distance. Maybe if player and animal hitboxs touch it voids the invisability. Hope this helps
wait, you sell quickarm IX materia for +900 gils? i rather keep it and transmute it into whatever craft or gather materia then keep that one for next patch pentameld
@@volaska4134 I wonder what happened, the guide seemed to me like it was made by someone who really cares and loves the game, it's hard to believe he just decided to throw it all away
I haven’t even done the quest to start this miserable waste of time. And good god now I know why. Even with this detailed step by step optimization, this whole game mode seems like the most awful, tedious thing I can imagine. I am really questioning whether I even want the motorcycle that much
Hope this content gets some quality of life changes months and not years later. Certainly a good time waster waiting on ques but they certainly make gathering (and managing animals and crops) annoying.
Sad and complicated content, so thank you very much for your guide, will force myself to do it to get rewards, but very disappointed with whole concept.
@@ladwarcoffee Once I hit 90 I barely spend time doing any combat and just gather just for the sake of gathering and spend time with my animals in my sanctuary haha
man, the daily, weekly limits and mobile game design is what I was worried about with island sanctury and looks like for the good reason. This game just can't let people do things without waiting a week so they pay sub
I thought that Island Sanctuary may go in that direction at first too, but honestly after playing through it all that doesn't seem the be the case at all. I finished everything in about 2 weeks, the game practically throws XP at you. It's really not comparable to mobile games

do you not have a copy of the spreadsheet you can share because it had more than just this function like maps on the animals etc?
please make a short video on how to use the teamcraft page. it's confusing and I'm not sure how to set it up, is it automatic? do I have to manually set everything up in teamcraft? which buttons do I press on?
Cool but where's the fucking spreadsheet for the maps and stuff? I don't the teamcraft workshop stuff. Wtf.

Yeah, for console players it would serve a lot if we could get the spreadsheet please

Great guide! I really enjoy your content. Your guides are very thorough and well thought out. Good job!

Got my bike today, and got a lot of tips from this video. Thanks, man.🤘 😎

I'm watching everything you do. It's great stuff! 👍
The tip that helped me was the efficiency bonus while crafting items on your island
I like all your video's, thankyou for your help man!!!!
Glad you like them!
In terms of tedium, I very much encourage paying the mammets to take care of the crops.

Thanks for this guide! I unlocked it and then left it alone because it honestly felt a bit overwhelming (and also I wanted to get my crafters/gatherers to 90 first).
just a question about the greenfeed.. does it matter which veggies or fruit i have for it?
Thank you so much for this guide and the island tips!
very helpful thank you
when do i get the option to build a granary? cause all i have rn are 2 workshops
could you please make a video on how to use Teamcraft for Island Workshop? it's a little confusing how to use Teamcraft and I'm not sure what to do for island and Teamcraft webpage. thanks
is guide interactive? workshop solver gives the impression it is
so do i make short hour products for the groove points on all of my workshop till the last few days?
Yes, that's the idea. Two days of 4h, three days of whatever makes the most cowries
do animals only give their items once a day?
heya i have a question, currently in the doc's solver there's no more "groove mover", where am i supposed to look for this? i'm sorry if it's such a basic question but the doc for me is information overload

@@inannaaeval9571 you got lucky most likely. Just because it works for one person doesn't mean it will for everyone
@@gh3meister I'm not a lucky person lol. Just wanted to share a way I've had 100% catch rate.
You could also use a macro to have island sprint on the same keybind as your normal sprint
Anyone any idea what happened to Leiton Grey's spreadsheet and youtube?
do animal drops carry stack with other days if i dont collect them?
If you use the mammet automation then yes, otherwise no
how do u move the teleport/sprint hotbar when in the island
Actions -> General -> Duty action 1/2
It's mentioned in the gathering part of the video too!
great guide :>
Did he remove the document? I looked for it and it said deleted :(
It seems like it. I recommend Teamcraft now, they provide everything the spreadsheet did!
wait, you sell quickarm IX materia for +900 gils? i rather keep it and transmute it into whatever craft or gather materia then keep that one for next patch pentameld
I'm lucky if this stuff goes on Jenova for 200 🤣
I'm just now doing this after the 7.11 patch. I just got rank 9 mostly by building
So uh, how do I get to Island Sanctuary?
google tells me the spreadsheet is in the owner's trash now :(
Yeah, they deleted it and I think the Discord is gone, too. I was lucky enough to have saved a copy to my drive
@@volaska4134 I wonder what happened, the guide seemed to me like it was made by someone who really cares and loves the game, it's hard to believe he just decided to throw it all away

"The Complete Guide to Island Sanctuary in FFXIV after Rank 6+"
"The Completely entitled comment from someone who can't even get to rank 6 without a video"
@@TheSometimeAfternothing entitled about it. He's right.
Well the guide is no help to me because you don't explain how to unlock it.
I just want the glamour ;_;

Dude you have no idea how to explain this to people who just started on the island do u?
and then you max level your IS and realize it's the most boring aspect of the game. Entirely pointless after you get the mounts you want.
I enjoy just gathering, and feeding my animals, for the sake of gathering and feeding my animals.
Sounds like a job lol
Sad and complicated content, so thank you very much for your guide, will force myself to do it to get rewards, but very disappointed with whole concept.
Its not so complicated once you get the hang of it really
The only part I was disappointed with was that you don't use your actual gathering and crafting skills.
I only vist my island when I have nothing else to do. This makes it look really boring.
But in the end its quite rewarding when you make a bunch of coweries and able to get the hairstyles, mounts, and glam.
@@PrincessofKeys what do you do after that? Sell dyes?
I guess, or hoard for next update(not sure what they can add when we have full access already)
@@ladwarcoffee Once I hit 90 I barely spend time doing any combat and just gather just for the sake of gathering and spend time with my animals in my sanctuary haha
@@prosebeforebros2579 I'm deeply disappointed with healing so I haven't done any combat in like 4 months.
Wow I didn't know Elon Musk played final fantasy 14
To be honest i really hate this bullshit sanctuary thing.....because it was so damm complicated i don't know what i should do at all...
Wish we still had that google doc. Teamcraft is shit and doesnt produce anything... "no data" ah thanks
If you're fine with using mods, there's one called Beachcomber that you could look into that works fine for me...most of the time
I still want to flamethrower my island, you can smack it for me 👀
I'm now just thinking of that gif with the guy returning with pizza, to chaos. Just replace the guy with Tataru.
man, the daily, weekly limits and mobile game design is what I was worried about with island sanctury and looks like for the good reason. This game just can't let people do things without waiting a week so they pay sub
