The coolest thing I found about when I started playing ff14 is that their response to the release being awful was to make an in game event blowing up the world and rebooting it with a story about coping with the world being blown up

its just a matter of practise, read the ingame rules so you can learn about combos and stuff though. but there are certain rules you want to encourage, different regions have different rules for the game and you can spread them around by playing games in different areas. i cant remember the good rules though, i havent played it since i was like 13 years old .. oh, and certain players have certain rare cards. those refine into the best stuff

ive never been able to manipulate the rules successfully, but there's a guide on gamefaqs that if you follow correctly will leave you with the only regional rule across the world being Open. once you beat ifrit you'll have your first rare card, from there it's just a matter of building up a deck around balamb garden and collecting a few more rare cards (diablos) leaving you pretty much unbeatable as long as you don't spread the random and plus/wall rules.

you dont have to agree to a new regions ruleset either, keep challenging and denying if they try to merge rules.

i think your first 4 rare cards are ifrit, diablos, mog from the student jogging around balamb garden, and zell from zells mother. then use the queen of cards to get either the 'difference' or 'all' trade rule to win multiple cards per game, modify those cards into magic.

also beat seed tests to increase your rank, run around in circles getting paid, buy a bunch of tents, refine into curagas or whatever and have 4000 HP before you even leave the first island. reduce enemies hps with demi (draw from diablos) and use the Card ability to turn them into cards to beat battles without gaining exp. once you have diablos' enc-none ability you can skip all random encounters for the rest of the game except for bosses if you want. you can beat the game at your starting level with all stats maxed doing 9999 damage with 9999 HP.

stuff like that makes me think the speed run is some kind of insanely mapped rush with small ventures to get certain infinitely broken items

It's a separate instanced load from the title screen so I don't think it will be in the main game at all
