FFXIV Heavensward Quest List

Here’s a list of all the missions that tell the tale of FFXIV second expansion

After A Realm Reborn, which marked a new beginning for Final Fantasy XIV, it was time for the Warrior of Light to move on to a new adventure in Heavensward. In case you just started this expansion, your main goal should be completing the Main Scenario Quests so you can unlock new areas, and content, and pave the way for the next expansion Stormblood. To assist you in checking how much it will take to go through all these missions, we’ve prepared a list with all the Heavensward MSQ. 

In this list, you find the Heavensward and Post-Heavensward MSQ as well as all the Dungeons and Trials that you unlock by completing these. While the quest names don’t tend to give spoilers about the story, keep in mind that the name of some Trials might give you a general idea of what will happen. Take this into consideration before scanning the whole list. 

If you're still discovering all this expansion has to offer, be sure to check our guides on Dark Knight, one of the jobs added to the game in Heavensward.

The initial MSQ in Heavensward lets you finally see Ishgard, a region that has been locked so far. From there, you will visit many other areas and learn more about the past involving Ishgardians and dragons.

Heavensward MSQ – The Entire Post-Heavensward Quest List

This list encompasses the Dragonsong and Post-Dragonsong MSQ as specified in the game’s journal. However, we have listed them by Patch which can make finding the exact missions you’re looking for an easier task. Many Dungeons and Trials in this group of quests expand upon the events that took place during the initial batch of MSQ in Heavensward
