About In-Game Support

In-game support in FINAL FANTASY XIV is provided by our Game Master (GM) support team. GMs are members of the SQUARE ENIX team and work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to ensure a fair, safe, and fun experience for all of our players.

If you have placed a GM Call, a GM can respond via several channels, including:
 • Support Desk Message (As a reply to a user’s GM Call)
 • In-Game Chat

In-Game GM Appearance
Game Masters in FINAL FANTASY are easily recognizable by several distinct features which are exclusive to GMs:
 • Unique Name (First name is "GM")
 • Unique armor (Red in appearance)
 • Unique Icon next to their name (GM helmet icon)

Contacting a GM
In order to contact a GM, you will first need to submit a GM Call via the in-game Support Desk feature by using the escape key to bring up the menu.



You can also use the “/supportdesk” command in the chat window to bring up the Support Desk.
