Quick Links
The Island Sanctuary has opened inFinal Fantasy 14, which has players crowding the Moraby Drydocks to partake in relaxing farm life. The content has players grow crops, explore, collect resources,let their minions out, and gather animals to take care of. The animals, in particular, are quite popular. There are many kinds that can be tamed and captured around the island.
The animals ofFinal Fantasy 14’sIsland Sanctuary are not just for show, either. Taking care of them can reward the players with different resources that can be useful for crafting and building. Do not expect to be able to capture them all at first, asdifferent kinds (in terms of size) require different trapsthat have recipes learned only by leveling up.
