Final Fantasy XIV LFG made for raiders. AnySquad shows live FFXIV groups looking for static members, Ultimate progression, Savage prog, treasure maps and PvP stacks. Filter by data center, world, role and schedule.
Duty Finder works for roulettes. For Savage prog, Ultimates, weekly clears and treasure map trains? You need a static or a regular group that actually shows up. Random pugs wipe on the same mech for two hours, then disband.
Not every night needs a full squad. A duo is the lowest-friction way to play Final Fantasy XIV with someone better than a random fill — one person you can actually talk to, no scheduling, no roster. Most hosts on AnySquad are looking for exactly that: one more player, right now.
When you do want the full squad, post the slots you still need rather than waiting to be found. A lobby that says what it is missing fills faster than a profile that lists what you play. Hosts set the party size when they create the lobby, so the feed above already tells you whether a post needs one player or four — you are never guessing whether there is room.
Final Fantasy XIV supports crossplay across every platform it runs on, and every lobby says which platforms the host is happy to group with. Input method is worth mentioning in your post: controller and mouse players can play together, and in most lobbies they do, but the ones that care usually care a lot — better said up front than discovered mid-match.
Most LFG posts fail for the same reason: they describe the person writing them instead of the group they want. "Chill player looking for people" tells a reader nothing they can act on.
Four things get a post answered. Say how many players you need, not how many you have. Say when — "now" is a real answer and the best one. Say the one thing you care about, whether that is a mic, a rank, a region or just not raging. And leave out everything else: a long post reads like a list of requirements, and the people who clear every requirement are not the ones browsing an LFG feed.
One more: when your group fills, close the lobby. Stale posts are the reason people stopped trusting Discord LFG channels, and a board full of them is worth less to you than to anyone.
Discord is where most Final Fantasy XIV LFG still happens, and for a server you are already in, it works. The problem is what an LFG channel becomes after a week: a scroll of posts with no way to tell which are live. You message six people, four are offline, one filled an hour ago, and the sixth never set the role that lets them see your reply.
AnySquad is the same idea without the archaeology. A lobby is a post that knows whether it is still open — when it fills or the host closes it, it stops being shown. You do not join a server, get a role, read the rules and then ask; you open the Final Fantasy XIV feed, see who needs a player right now, and join.
If your group already lives on Discord, keep it there — AnySquad's bot posts your lobbies into your own server, so finding people and playing with them do not have to be the same tool.
Yes. Hosts mark prog point and content tier on every FFXIV lobby, so you find statics that match where you are in prog.
Yes. Hosts mark open roles — tank, healer, melee DPS, ranged DPS, caster — and players list their main jobs so you build a working comp.
Aether, Primal, Crystal, Dynamis, Chaos, Light, Materia, Meteor, Mana, Gaia, Elemental — all data centers. Filter by DC and world so cross-world prog actually works.
Yes. Browsing and joining FFXIV groups is free with no premium tier.
Party Finder is great for clears, weak for finding statics. Discord PF channels go stale. AnySquad shows live FFXIV groups looking for members right now, with prog and schedule built in.
