Shirk is a term used in Final Fantasy XIV to describe when players choose to ignore or neglect their duties as members of their party or alliance. Shirk can have serious consequences for the player, including loss of experience and loot, and may even lead to a party or alliance being disbanded. Shirk is often seen as a negative trait, and is discouraged by many players. It can be difficult to avoid shirking, as it can be tempting to take on more challenging quests or explore new areas on your own. However, shirking can have serious consequences for the player and their team, so it’s important to be aware of the risks involved before choosing to do it. ..
