About Thaliak
What is Thaliak?
Thaliak aims to host comprehensive guides, timelines, and other tools (such as mitigation planning) for specific encounters in Final Fantasy XIV.
We created Thaliak as a means to solve certain problems with the current state of Final Fantasy XIV guides – such as a lot of guides being only available in video but not textual form and only covering mechanics on a superficial level without going into a great amount of detail; diagrams being difficult to find and being potentially poorly optimized for mobile phones or other devices; and Party Finder commonly using strategies whose source material is no longer available, making them difficult to learn.
Thaliak aims to combine as many of these resources as possible with an easy-to-use and lightweight website to give players a single comprehensive resource containing all the information you could possibly need to learn a fight and be well-prepared for when you actually enter the fight in-game.
Discord
We have a Discord server! Join us to participate in discussions about Thaliak and FFXIV, give feedback, ask fight-specific questions, and help contribute to (or create new) guides and timelines.
