Dungeons

In FFXIV, dungeons are not accessible until they have been unlocked either through completing an unlock quest or completing a section of the MSQ. Your class level does not give you access to higher level dungeons and, when running roulettes, you can only get dungeons you have unlocked.

Now, most dungeons are impossible to miss since they are part of the main story. However, there are many dungeons, raids, and even alliance raids that it is possible to miss if you do not do the unlock quests for them as they are not part of the main story. This includes dungeons such as:
