#

can i buy glamor prisms somewhere?

obsidian patio
#

the grand company sells them for grand company seals

#

you can also buy them off the marketboard for gil

crude relic
#

If you have a crafter to level 15 I think you can learn how to craft your own glamour prisms.

wintry chasm
#

You want to know what music that is?

obsidian patio
#

what's the name of the quest?

magic vapor
#

Oops wrong channel

#

Sorry thought this was general

crude relic
#

Is SAM gear part of Leatherworking or is it Armorer?

wintry chasm
#

Thing is crafting is intricate and it's a case by case basis depending on the piece of gear

#

but yeah sure usually it's ltw

crude relic
#

Awesome.

static yacht
#

#

#

#

i can just TP to that one

#

and then tp a second time to the capital city

#

and save money

#

vses just tping from capital city to capital city because of the discount?

obsidian patio
#

teleporting to/from the housing districts has a general discount IIRC

#

I definitely know that teleporting to the district has a big discount

fresh lodge
#

1/4 of the full price

static yacht
#

wow thats insane

fresh lodge
#

Make sure the houses have a mini aetheryte on them though

near depot
#

What item level should you have at lvl 60?

obsidian patio
#

i230-i270 near the end of the heavensward patch story

#

as you can buy i260 shire gear for poetics in Idyllshire and upgrade it to i270

near depot
#

Okay ty

#

thanks Lch, i never though of that

glad pewter
#

Is there still some kind of bonus xp for logging out in the inn?

raw solstice
#

nope

warped nest
#

Nope

#

Just for fun flavor wise

raw solstice
#

the only bonus exp you get is for being in a sanctuary, logged in or not it's the same rate

Rested Experience FAQ
Info

'Why does my EXP bar have some blue in it?'

That's Rested experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.

'How much of a boost is it?'

The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.

glad pewter
#

Oh that's good to know

raw solstice
#

an inn counts as a sanctuary too but so does any city with a big aetheryte

#

but the animation for logging out/in from an inn is cute <3 but otherwise no real advantage

warped nest
#

Yeah it's for flavor

#

You sleep in the FF world and wake up IRL

obsidian patio
#

Male Lalafell as an example

leaden ginkgo
#

I cant find the starting quest for sephirot

obsidian patio
#

Check for the quest "Gods of Eld" in The Pillars near the Fortemps manor

#

if that's not there then go to the Rising Stones and go into the Solar

#

...it also looks like you'll need to complete a bit of Heavensward patch story for the sephirot quest

manic oasis
#

is Int better than Crit for Summoner?

obsidian patio
#

"As Goes Light So Goes Darkness"

#

yes, main stat is always better than secondary stats

warped nest
#

Int is the main stat

#

For almost all cases, higher ilvl = higher main stat = better

manic oasis
#

okay 🙂

#

can Materia be crit?

#

for summoner

#

like can we use crit materia

warped nest
#

Yes

#

For proper meld

#

!faq balance

zinc orbitBOT
warped nest
#

They have meld recommendations for all jobs

manic oasis
#

cool thanks guys

#

and for level 70 is full Scaevan gear the best? (not there yet)

warped nest
#

Yes

#

Full Augmented Scaevan

manic oasis
#

and i have to finish stormblood to get it?

raw solstice
#

base stormblood (4.0) MSQ

#

basically get to level 70 MSQ and complete the quest "stormblood"

manic oasis
#

thanks 😄

Trying to unlock custom deliveries for Kurenai and Adkiragh and there seem to be requirements for the requirements. Do I need to have progressed a certain point in a DoH/L main quest line to unlock them? My DoL are at their 63~ and DoH are at their 55~ quests.

obsidian patio
#

They both require normal sidequests to unlock.

#

Adkiragh requires "Purpol Rain" in the Azim Steppes at Reunion

#

Kurenai needs a chain of sidequests starting with "Fathoms Below", if you unlocked Shisui of the Violet Tides

#

if not then the starting quest is "The Palace of Lost Souls"

#

Also I recommend you catch up on your crafter sidequests now, Manipulation at level 65 is a very powerful skill and is given from the level 65 quest

Alright, that's what I'm missing. I've skipped a bunch of normal side quests but figured they were tied to DoX quests or what have you. The crafter stuff's been on my to-do list but I've not had need of the skills and have since capped at 80 via Ishgard.

Thanks for helping!

rugged pewter
#

new to ffxiv have a question about subs

#

is it 30 days of play time

#

or 30 days counting even when not playing

fresh lodge
#

Its 30 days from when you activate the game

#

It counts down even when you're not playing

rugged pewter
#

ah alright thanks

crude relic
#

What quest open up the HW clan hunts? I forgot >.<

obsidian patio
#

"Let the Clan Hunt Begin" in Ishgard

#

you need to have unlocked ARR hunts as a prequisite

crude relic
#

What quest unlocks the ARR hunts? xD

obsidian patio
#

"Let the Hunt Begin" which requires you to be 2nd lieutenant in your grand company

crude relic
#

Mmmmmk, welp gonna have to wait to unlock all that stuff then.

ebon sphinx
#

I have a really oddly specific question. When playing AST and tryign to take screenshots in gpose, is there any way to get the stellar detonation in the shot?

tender pelican
#

So I bought the level boost for DRG and apparently there is a lvl 60 gearset but the boost makes you 70, is there a way I can find what quest I need to start at to get that gear set

obsidian patio
#

buying the job boost skips the level 60 quest. to get the gear you'll need to buy it for centurio seals in ishgard at the Forgotten Knight

upbeat storm
#

whats the best way to get GC seals

obsidian patio
#

If you're Sergeant 2nd class then you can turn in pink/green/blue-rarity gear in at the grand company for seals.

#

if not then you'll want to do the grand company hunting log, FATEs, and leveling roulette (daily bonus) to get the needed seals to promote to that rank

tender pelican
#

Spamming dungeons as tank and greeding all the loot gives a great amount of seals

rugged pewter
#

Is the level cap for ARR 50 or 80?

#

Does it require you to have the dlc to surpass 50

whole wasp
#

yes you need the expansions to surpass 50

tardy wraith
#

How hard is eureka solo? is it even possible to get some Pyros armor that way or would i need consistent runs with a party?

obsidian patio
#

with the 100% echo buff solo grinding is very easy to do, though grindy

#

you'll still most likely need a group to do the FATEs to get the token materials needed to upgrade the relic weapon and get the elemental armor set

agile gorge
#

how do i bind two buttons? like.. ex. mouse4 + 1

fresh lodge
#

I don't believe you can

snow wyvern
#

what's the best trusts comp

agile gorge
#

Oh? but they will allow ctrl + 1?

obsidian patio
#

Only Shift/Alt/Control can be used as modifiers tied to another keybind

agile gorge
#

XD

#

awww

#

gotcha

raw solstice
#

some mice will allow you to rebind M4 for example to control/alt/shift

#

which let you use them as modifiers

obsidian patio
#

@snow wyvern I personally use ||Alphinaud/Y'shtola/Alisaie||

#

There's no real notable difference between the groups in terms of best

#

though if you're going as a ranged/caster it might be best to bring ||Minfilia|| for the melee limit break

tacit palm
#

are there any monk gloves with green animations other than fist of fiend or the garuda one

obsidian patio

!iglam Nyepels Lux

crude relic
#

I would check the Anemos relics online, I know they're dyeable but I don't know if that affects the glow. Other than that I don't think so until the next round of craftable Primal weapons come out which is yet to be determined, though I could easily be mistaken and there is a 3rd green one. Like that.

tacit palm
#

😮

crude relic
#

See? Proven wrong af XD

obsidian patio
#

That weapon is the Anima weapon from the Heavensward relic series

#

hard part is mostly just grinding for a literal crapton of Tomestones of Poetics

tacit palm
#

I'm already doing it for sum

#

rip that maybe later

crude relic
#

You need like 5k poetics in total just for one part? Maybe 10k?

#

I forget but it's a holy fuck ton of poetics XD

obsidian patio
#

Umbrite step alone is 9k with the best possible RNG

crude relic
#

Oof, btw Wynne do you know the best way to get Wolf Collars via PvP? I want that fucking SAM weapon but I need 10 collars and I've never done PvP so yay me x.x

obsidian patio
#

I believe those come from seasonal rewards

#

for getting a high enough rank in the leaderboards?

crude relic
#

Oof x.x

obsidian patio
#

I never did seasonal PVP so I can't say for sure

obsidian wren
#

Yea its ranked feast

jade quartz
#

On crafted primal weapons: We haven't seen one of those in over a year. Patch 4.5 added crafted Goddess (||Sophia||) weapons, and we've had none since then. Demon (||Zurvan||) weapons are still not in the game, let alone all the Stormblood trial weapons.

#

So I wouldn't necessarily get your hopes up for them to come out.

obsidian patio
#

(4.5 was only a year ago, but the point still stands)

crude relic
#

Welp I'm never getting the SAM weapon from Ranked XD I suck at PvP in most MMOs. Yeah, we need the Demon stuff plus atleast all the 4.0 trial craftables soon. I need them, I'm making a collection of all crafted Primal weapons XD

jade quartz
#

My perception of time has become shaky

rugged pewter
#

As a new player when would I look to have new characters

#

I'm trying to decide which sub option is best for me

twilit arch
#

most people don't usually play more than one character

rugged pewter
#

Oh really guess I'll try the entry sub then

wintry chasm
#

Yeah only two reasons really is to play on multiple data centers or for RP reasons

obsidian patio
#

even then you can still use the Entry sub for the purpose of playing on multiple datacenters

warm marten
#

Can Level Boost be purchased for multiple jobs?

fresh lodge
#

Yes

warm marten
#
  1. The Nier Raid is a “casual” Raid similar to Crystal Tower, meaning anyone and their mom should be able to do it, right?

  2. Can Trusts be used for MSQ?

  3. Can Trusts be used for older casual Raids like CT or Ivalice?

  4. If Trusts can’t be used in the casual Raids, do ppl still do the older ones at all?

  5. Have they gotten rid of all the “filler” quests required to proceed in the story? (e.g. like I know you gotta save the world, but you gotta save mah bees first kk?)

fresh lodge
#
  1. Yes
  2. Only ShB MSQ dungeons
  3. No
  4. Yes but unsyned
  5. Not yet
obsidian patio
#
  1. yes
  2. yes
  3. no
  4. all the raids besides coil are in a roulette which keeps the queue time decently low for the most part
  5. no, but they are planning to rework ARR story as a whole in 5.3 to remove excess fluff and shorten it
warm marten
#

thank you

#

so Trusts can't be used for something like..."The Bard's" retelling of your most epic fights? (e.g. an exaggerated version of your fight against Ultima Weapon)

obsidian patio
#

correct, they can only be used in shadowbringers story dungeons

warm marten
#

ty

#

5.3 sounds promising wit that story rework

#

I still have not spoiled myself on FF14's story

upbeat storm
#

Is there a way to check mb prices without having to jump servers all the time or at least a way to check mb servers while I'm in another server?

warm marten
#

i've only beaten base game

#

and i got up to Bismarck on Heavensward.

obsidian patio
#

@upbeat storm there's websites but they don't kept up to date that well

#

If you aren't already, Limsa is the fastest spot to world hop and check prices

upbeat storm
#

Is the compain app any good?

fresh lodge
#

Not really imo

#

But you should install it for the emote and extra favourite destination

upbeat storm
#

Yeah but I'm looking across multiple items and constantly swapping between my and other servers to check ears time

fresh lodge
#

You can't use it while you're logged in

leaden ginkgo
#

Can anyone help?

fresh lodge
#

With what?

leaden ginkgo
#

I cast glamour on Arterial Woolen Robe and it shows up as the correct item on "Try On" but the appearance doesn't change

slate arrow
#

what's your level?

leaden ginkgo
#

I tried 3 times already

#

45

#

Other clothes worked

#

Just this one

obsidian patio
#

what item are you using for the glamour?

leaden ginkgo
#

Cotton Acton

obsidian patio
#

That's a Disciple of War chestpiece, so it won't show if a caster is wearing it

leaden ginkgo
#

Well that sucks >_<

fresh lodge
#

Glamour still has the same restrictions as equipping

obsidian patio
#

There's the Harlequin's Acton which shares the same model as it, though with a slightly different color pattern

leaden ginkgo
#

But why? X.X

#

Thanks

obsidian patio
#

that one is usable by casters/healers

shell dagger
#

Any tips for a first time tank in Final Steps of Faith (Nidhogg)?

#

A bit nervous going into this because of the prior badass cut scenes... 😭

obsidian patio
#

Don't try tanking the middle dragon add, it ignores aggro and does what it wants.

shell dagger
#

The tanks should tank alternate ones, right?

obsidian patio
#

the ones to the side, yes

shell dagger
#

One for each other

obsidian patio
#

yep

shell dagger
#

Anything for the third phase?

obsidian patio
#

nothign besides make sure to stack for Ahk Morn

shell dagger
#

MrHappy guide just seems to go about avoid AOEs

obsidian patio
#

and the fireballs explode in cardinal directions (North/East/West/South)

#

Ah, what is that? The video sounded confusing

#

Ohhhhhh

You can just... right click inventory to auto sort though... and iirc you can change the default sorting method in configuration

tough solstice
#

I was hoping to make a macro that would open all the inventories and sort them every time

leaden ginkgo
#

Should I buy a skip potion

#

It's been almost 30 days and I'm barely hitting halfway on ARR

wintry chasm
#

If you care about the plot no since ARR is so important and recapping methods aren't all that great tbh

#

But it's up to you

leaden ginkgo
#

I'll power through then

dusky nest
#

The grind will be rewarded in the end

#

So stay strong

outer star
#

I'm trying to grow different colour flowers in my house but it's saying additional pomace aren't necessary?

rare sable
#

You can only fertilize/color once per hour

#

So if say, you want green, you'll have to do yellow> wait 1 hr+ > blue (or the reverse)

blazing merlin
#

anyone knows the name of the stand on the far left with the cake?

dusky nest
#

Might be worth checking that website for it

blazing merlin
#

already did

Wooden showcase @blazing merlin

crude relic
#

Ok, I got 3 horses. Does Leviathan drop one or am I just missing Titan, and Shiva?

rare sable
#

Levi drop

#

And you need nightmare too if you want kirin misinfo ignore this

twilit arch
#

no you do not

rare sable
#

Really?

#

My life is a lie...

twilit arch
#

nightmare is not tied at all to kirin

#

especially since its a rare drop

rare sable
#

Aaah, kk sorry

crude relic
#

I might need a little help with Levi then xD I kept dying to Levi over and over cuz I cannot tell for the life of me what side he's gonna smash down.

twilit arch
#

i would suggest turning up the sound and use the audio cues

rare sable
#

^ stand mid, turn your camera to one side of the platform, if you hear splash but doesnt see it (on your side) you run forward

slender furnace
#

hi, I just got back in the game from the end of Stormblood, tank stances no longer reduce your damage ? There's no point in not being in tank stance now ?

green grail
#

aggro generation

crude relic
#

Honestly I did all that, I'm probably too stupid to do the mechanic properly honestly >.>

green grail
#

without it you generate as much aggro as a dps

slender furnace
#

yeah I know that but I mean there's no drawback at all from being in tank stance anymore ?

green grail
#

nope

#

dps stance is the default, but tank stance is a free toggle for a lot of extra aggro

slender furnace
#

alright nice thanks

#

jeez they removed quite a lot of actions compared to stormblood (for drk at least)

rare sable
#

@crude relic you can try making a pf or asking a friend to do it with you. I did levi with 2 of my fc mates cause I suck at running too x'D

twilit arch
#

probably easily get ppl in pf

#

tho some people are probably going to dip after one run since they'll likely be there for WT

frosty panther
#

Hi! Sorry I can't find any information on the web regarding how to get the common makai markswoman set. Does anyone know? Thanks you in advance!!

green grail
#

it's unobtainable, was a "temporary" pvp event for over 2 years between 3.4 and 5.1 and now it's over

frosty panther
#

Ugh how unfortunate. Guess I'm 2 years late lol. Thanks anyways and have a nice day!!

neon fable
#

Hi! I want to buy subscription and i chose option to buy it with paysafecard, i choose Entry and then when i press "next" page just refresh, standard works normally and get me to write code page. Why is that is something wrong with website or what ?

green grail
#

maybe try on a different browser, that helps with buggy sites sometimes

neon fable
#

after i sumbit a ticket and check on other browers i found this smal text "An entry level subscription cannot be purchased until your standard level subscription expires.
"

#

it is rly hard to say text

green grail
#

yeah, gotta wait then till your current one expires

whole wasp
#

i think you cant buy a sub until the free sub from buying starter edition expires. thats what i remember happening previously

honest ocean
#

Does any of the old content have mounts associated with hunts? Like something you can buy with centurio seals or allied seals the same way you can buy a mount with nuts in ShB

crude relic
#

I think there's a Wyvern mount in HW associated with the Elite hunts but don't quote me on that one.

frank chasm
#

Can squad members level beyond level 60?

fresh lodge
#

Not at the moment

#

Though they haven't given any word on if they'll expand the level cap or not

gritty oracle
#

Can full augmented Shire gear last an AST until 70?

obsidian wren
#

if you really wanted to

fresh lodge
#

No

obsidian wren
#

but i'd advice swapping out upgrades you get in dsungeons

#

to make things much, much more comfortable

#

lv 65+ dungeon gear starts spiking in stats

fresh lodge
#

Due to the way gear scaling works between HW and SB, there is a massive jump in stats at 64 HQ/65 Dungeon

#

It'll get a bit spicy if you're healing i Shire gear at 67 ect

gritty oracle
#

Thanks!

fresh lodge
#

If you really don't want to upgrade, you could switch to HoH from 65+

gritty oracle
#

Nah, just dumping some poetics and planning gear ahead

#

Is there someplace to buy gear for level 40s from vendors or with poetics?

frank chasm
#

Thanks

fresh lodge
#

Uhhh

#

The starting cities might sell 40 gear

#

If not try Mor Dhona or North Than

#

And no, Tome gear is only for 50/60/70/80

crude relic
#

Anyone know what to do to get Kirin once you have all the Primal Ex mounts for ARR?

twilit arch
#

you talk to the wandering minstrel in mor dhona

crude relic
#

Awesome! I knew it was in Mor Dhona just didn't know what person to talk to xD

winged shuttle
#

Hey guys, do I have to reset my POTD if I can't advance anymore?

fresh lodge
#

Do you not have a high enough Aetherpool, or did you make it to the end?

winged shuttle
#

Not high enough gear it says

fresh lodge
#

You can use the other save slot to get more silver chests, or you can just reset

winged shuttle
#

Ah thank you

crude relic
#

What iLevel should I be at 80 before I start soloing all the HW Ex Primals?

stray saffron
#

more gear is always better

open coral
#

You can probably pull it off with the baseline 420 ilevel, honestly

crude relic
#

Mmk, and I'm guessing we can't solo SB Primals yet?

dim ridge
#

not really, you can low-man pretty hard tho like

#

even during stormblood you could do the easier of the two launch ex primals with four or five people

crude relic
#

So at the current max level I could theoretically bring in a tank and a healer and 3 man it is what you're saying? Atleast for the 4.0 Primals

open coral
#

For some of them, yes

#

Others still need a full group

crude relic
#

Well I'm talking about Susano, Lakshmi and Shinryu atm. Anything more than the launch primals and I wouldn't know what the hell I'm doing xD

open coral
#

Susan and Lakshmi yes, definitely

#

Shinryu is a little iffier because he has a dps check

crude relic
#

Soooooo bring 3 other people, a healer another DPS and a tank? xD

open coral
#

You want at least 5 or 6 for Shinryu

crude relic
#

Oh poo

open coral
#

Lakshmi also has a dps check, but it’s easier to deal with

dim ridge
#

shinryu's dps check can be rough and was rough with a full eight during a lot of stormblood for some reason

crude relic
#

That means I'll actually have to PF it and fight for my doggo >.< poo

open coral
#

Yes

#

Or wait until next expansion

manic oasis
#

for a level 50 dungeon, would a level 60 with shire gear do less damage than a level 70 with scaevan gear? i dont get the level sync D:

open coral
#

Yes, because of how the sync works

fresh lodge
#

Yes, but the difference will be so small its insignificant

#

I wouldn't worry about it

open coral
#

The only place where it really makes a difference is in Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium where the ilevel doesn’t sync correctly

twilit arch
#

What exactly do you mean that castrum/prae doesn't sync correctly?

open coral
#

The ilevel sync isn’t in effect for those two instances

#

If I recall correctly

twilit arch
#

Yes, it is

#

you are synced to 130

fresh lodge
#

If it doesn't specify an ilvl, then its synced to the highest for that level

twilit arch
#

Saying it doesn't ilvl sync correctly isn't correct at all, just because they don't have a ilvl sync specifically on it

open coral
#

Ah

junior dirge
twilit arch
#

first lieutenant and captain are locked behind squadron missions

open coral
#

What is your current rank?

junior dirge
#

Oh

#

Second Storm Lieutenant

open coral
#

That’s your problem then

junior dirge
#

I wanted to promote so I can buy squadron enlistment manual so I can actually start doing squadron stuff

open coral
#

1st lieutenant requires you to send your squadron on a specific level 50 flagged mission

junior dirge
#

But thats behind First Lieutenant

#

Ah

open coral
#

And captain requires that you complete 10 command missions with your squadron

fresh lodge
#

You can still get squadron members without the manual

junior dirge
#

I completed like 10 challenges and still didnt get any :(

fresh lodge
#

The manual just increases tbe chance

open coral
#

You might have some waiting for you

fresh lodge
#

Try the Gold Saucer challenges

junior dirge
#

Did them

#

The easy ones at least

open coral
#

Have you checked your enlistments?

#

Recently?

junior dirge
#

It'd say here right?

twilit arch
#

1st LT requires a lv40 mission

#

the captain mission is lv50

open coral
#

The captain mission is command missions

twilit arch
#

and you have to be first LT to get the captain mission

#

there's two parts to the captain mission

#

1: do 5 unique dungeons with your squadron and 2: the flagged mission

junior dirge
#

Okay but I cant even get started yet

open coral
#

How many squadron members do you have?

junior dirge
#

How many challenge logs completion does it take to get your first squadron usually?

#

I think 3

#

What I have started with

fresh lodge
#

Its rmg

junior dirge
#

O

open coral
#

Usually just doing one combat challenge recruits someone

#

For me

junior dirge
#

So the type of challenge matters when it comes to chance of receiving and enlistment?

open coral
#

No

junior dirge
#

I havent done any battle ones

open coral
#

But I mostly do combat challenges, so I notice the recruits then

twilit arch
#

the only challenge logs that don't count, iirc, are eureka ones

#

everything else has a chance of giving a recruit

open coral
#

Just do three roulette dungeons

junior dirge
#

I guess I'll just have to keep trying to do those then

#

Yeah thats what I will do now

open coral
#

Or five roulette dungeons and remember to comm someone in each

#

That will complete 3 different challenges

junior dirge
#

Alrighty ty

sinful nacelle
#

do you always get 5 alexandrite per mysterious map?

sinful nacelle
#

@rich bay Many thanks

patent cave
#

so does the AI dungeon thing you unlock apply to lower level dungeons too?

#

so should i finish stormblood before i level alt jobs

green grail
#

no, it's only for shadowbringers msq dungeons

#

preferred server bonus most likely

whole wasp
#

Prefered server?

frank chasm
#

How do I grow Hans lemons?

junior dirge
#

O

#

If I switch to a preferred server with aetherity do I get the bonus too? 🙂

fresh lodge
#

Its only for new characters

junior dirge
#

Oh

#

how far along in the MSQ are you?

junior dirge

Oh Im just leveling alts

scarlet arrow
#

ah

grizzled scarab
#

Does anyone own the Tactical Assault FF XIV edition? I would like to know if the thumbpad is true analog.

frank chasm
#

Hello

#

How do I make crafting collectibles?

fresh lodge
#

If its an item thats only used as a collectable it'll automatically craft into a collectable

#

Otherwise you'll have to first complete the quest Inscrutable Taste in Ishgard

frank chasm
#

Is there one before heavensward?

fresh lodge
#

Then you just try to raise the quality of the craft as high as possible

#

No

#

Collectables are 50+ with the exception of Ishgard Reconstruction

frank chasm
#

Not in Mor Dhona?

fresh lodge
#

The unlock quest starts in Ishgard

patent cave
#

im watching a guide on levelling alt jobs and it recommends command missions

#

is that unlocked in stormblood?

raven sage
#

it unlocks when you reach rank 2 with your squadron which is unlocked when you reach second lieutenant with your gc

#

Squadrons just came during stormblood

patent cave
#

aite ty

scarlet arrow
#

command missions can be helpful for DPS classes, but be aware that the AI behind your squadron members in dungeons is...not the greatest

cunning lintel
#

Quick question, should I be looking into shields with higher block rate or higher block strength? I'm a level 15 gladiator btw if that helps

green grail
#

higher item level

#

substats don't matter till lvl cap

cunning lintel
#

Oh, alright then

patent cave
#

yeah i was watching desperius' levelling guide on YT for alts, but i was just wondering how you acquire that system

#

@scarlet arrow

fallow frost
#

For e4s, what and where do the waymarkers go for the triangle meteor drop strat?

frosty badger
#

how many leve allowances per day?

green grail
#

3 every 12h

gritty oracle
#

Is there any way to get a second Scion Adventurer jacket? I have two separate glams that include it, but in different colours

green grail
#

dye it different colours in each glamour plate

gritty oracle
#

Wait, that's possible?

raven sage
#

Yeah the dye saves on the plate

#

not the item itself

sturdy mason
#

When do I get recipes to restore the music sheets you get from bosses?

raven sage
#

the first ones are at 30

#

but some are also in the mastercraft books

sturdy mason
#

Are these not just automatically obtained based on level like others?

#

I don't know what mastercraft books are

raven sage
#

So at 50 there's a guy in mor dhona who will sell you the first 2

#

I think it's Talan but someone would need to correct me

#

But after that the books 3-7 are from yellow scrips

sturdy mason
#

hmm, do you know where this guy is? In sapphire exchange maybe?

raven sage
#

Mor Dhona

sturdy mason
#

And is it job-specific?

raven sage
#

Yes

#

Every crafter has their own set

sturdy mason
#

So every job has its own set of master books?

#

hmm ok

#

sorry I get Mor Dhona confused with Ul'dah. That's the place with the crystal tower right?

raven sage
#

yes

sturdy mason
#

I guess next to the aetheryte somewhere?

hot eagle
#

with 5.2 we should get book 8 for each crafter too

raven sage
#

He's at a table with another man in the shop area

hot eagle
#

need to be 50 for the first 2 books too

sturdy mason
#

how do I know which job can restore the music sheets?

raven sage
#

alc does

#

need crp for an ingredient though

sturdy mason
raven sage
#

no

#

more to your left

#

they're in the shopping center looking place

sturdy mason
#

oh friend to the land and hand

#

i see him

raven sage
#

yes

near depot
#

I just recently hit lvl 60 and my item level is 166. Should I go to idyllshire to buy gear or just stick with msq gear rewards?

raven sage
#

Shire gear will always be your best option at 60 but if you're behind in msq then you can wait

near depot
#

Ah okay. Do you know what I should get for a white mage?

raven sage
#

From shire or in general?

near depot
#

Shire

raven sage
#

There's a healer set

#

For accessories just match the set name or look for mind/piety

shell dagger
#

Does adding people to blacklist actually do anything besides block them in chat?

rich bay
#

@fallow frost

The blue markers flare to the 3 tiles connected to it.
The Orange markers need to be shared on the same tile with another orange marker.
Yellow marked players need their own tile for the mechanic.

shell dagger
#

Like, if I added people, would I be able to avoid them in roulette?

raven sage
#

no

shell dagger
#

That sucks.

raven sage
#

Well they can't join a party finder with you

#

but that's the only other thing

patent cave
#

for ranking up my GC to the point of unlocking command missions, will i need to be at a certain point in MSQ?

#

im in the prelude to stormblood

raven sage
#

There's an optional dungeon you need to clear at some point

#

I don't remember if that's msq locked or just level locked

rich bay
#

Yes, you need a level 47 dungeon to unlock it.

#

It is level locked

raven sage
#

But you're well enough in it wouldn't matter

#

It doesn't require anything outside of ARR

patent cave
#

yeah i've done one dungeon, im doing another now

#

okay cool so im just going to need seals basically

#

im second storm lieutenant now

rich bay
#

The Aurum Vale is also known as healer nightmare.

#

If the tank doesn't know how to pull ofc.

Nice job Pierre.

hot eagle
#

or if the dps dosent know when to eat a fruit xD

#

and gz

patent cave
#

oh so im almost there

#

1 or 2 more promotions

rough anchor
#

Do levels above the base requirement of 30 count towards the improved job?

#

I’m lvl 37 lancer now since I still haven’t gotten to the MSQ that’s required to get the upgrades, will I get sent back to 30 as DRG or will I keep the progress?

raven sage
#

You keep your progress

rough anchor
#

whew

raven sage
#

you only get reset to one if you're picking up a new class that starts at 1 or whatever

#

The experience from a class to a job is shared

#

I guess I should say

rich bay
#

You always get class EXP, a job is nothing more then a argumentation of a class. (A class mastery thing.)

patent cave
#

oh yeah that reminds me, i heard that SCH and SMN level simultaneously, but how does the intro quest to upgrading from arcanist work?

#

is it just two seperate quests

narrow glacier
#

There's two separate

patent cave
#

ah okay

narrow glacier
#

You also have to do job quests separately for both

patent cave
#

thats pretty near

#

neat*

narrow glacier
#

The thing is that while they level up together you also have to gear them up separately if you want to switch forth. That can get interesting as they're both two different sets (healer and caster) and even the weapon is different (codex and grimoire)

patent cave
#

oh yeah

#

damn

#

well im only levelling it because i think im gonna hit 80 on my DNC before i finish shadowbringers, im level 72 and i havent started stormblood yet

#

so i guess ill dungeon run on SCH and then use summoner when my DNC caps so im not wasting xp

#

just get SMN gear when i need

narrow glacier
#

Honestly though SCH has healer queue on its side, so unless it's a really dead part of the day you can mostly do highest level dungeon back to back and get leveled up quickly (though you also have to make sure you gear up properly so your healing is up to par)

patent cave
#

stormblood is 60-70 right?

#

yeah ill probably do that

#

though im dreading levelling up another dps job

narrow glacier
#

Yes, though even if you hit 70 you'll probably have some of the MSQ to deal with

#

Which, you need that to get through at least the .0 stormblood storyline so you can enable the scaeven gear NPCs (which is the level 70 poetics gear)

patent cave
#

yeah i seem to remember people sayig the vendor was north of the starting village or smth

narrow glacier
#

It's part of Ralgar's Reach

patent cave
#

thats the one

leaden ginkgo
#

hi guys big noob question but i just finished the realm reborn scholar quests and now alka zolka doesnt have the heavensward job quest for lvl 50? do i have to get to heavensward in the MSQ first to unlock the job quests?

twilit arch
#

Yep, have to be in heavensward to get heavensward job quests

leaden ginkgo
#

ah okie makes sense haha

#

thank u <:

narrow glacier
#

To add on to that the same is true for the other expansions as well

patent cave
#

so is soloing a level 47 dungeon as a 72 DNC possible?

#

i dont know how you turn off level sync though

#

the quest says it needs to be from duty finder though

narrow glacier
#

Should be fine

#

If you're in duty finder window, select the gear icon in the upper left

#

There's an option for "Undersized Party", select that

#

This will let you solo dungeons which support that setting

#

Just be sure to go back and disable it when you're done or you won't be able to select things like roulettes

patent cave
#

tyty

#

will give it a try

stoic nacelle
#

guys for the coming back event people needs necessary to be my friend to do the event?

Hello, is there a way to grind poetics really fast? I know to do dailies but after that? Trying to do the animos weapons x.x

neon sky
#

I'd really like to change my e-mail through the MogStation, but I never get the confirmation even though it says it's been sent. It's not in any spam folder, I've added Square's mailing addresses to my address book just in case, and it's just a Gmail account so it's not something weird. I've tried this multiple times and I'd really like to know if there's anything else I can try before contacting Square Enix since it's a very involved process

spice vapor
#

good evening, how does glamour plate work? i made some glamor on my armor and i was thinking i could sae it it these slots so later i can re apply it but i cant figure it out

slim zenith
#

Glamour chest in your inn room.

#

That is where you set the plates.

leaden ginkgo
#

@neon sky imo it's quicker to just contact them through the chat support and ask them to change it <:

slim zenith
#

but you have to put gear into the chest first.

spice vapor
#

my in in gridania / crystarium?

slim zenith
#

Any Inn

spice vapor
#

ok so i out there things i like to wear as glamour

#

and then i click on plate and it applies it ?

slim zenith
#

Only if you want to "store" or build them with glamour plates. It requires a glamour per item to put it into the chest.

spice vapor
#

do i need one glamoru to apply it too

slim zenith
#

One you put a plate together, you can always reapply it for free in the main cities.

spice vapor
#

oh ok, so i make a plate at my inn and pay glamour

#

and apply when i want

#

i went at it backwards, tanks

patent cave
#

you can only apply in cities though sadly

#

wish you could change wherever, i dont see why not

feral narwhal
#

Of all the tank jobs, which one has the most self-sustain/solo capability?

patent cave
#

i believe paladin is mentioned a lot for that, but theres nothing in the game that needs to be soloed thats difficult

feral narwhal
#

I've been debating doing older maps, but alone, like level 60/70 8 man ones, and when I last tried one that popped in Yanxia, I would have died on my MCH, so I was looking for a job that can better solo those.

simple shell
#

where 2 find a fc to join

green grail
#

r/ffxivrecruitment, recruitment channels here, ingame PF, city shouts, novice network

wintry chasm
#

Probably a really stupid question but when I put XIV into borderless window mode my FPS drops to like

#

20 FPS. I never had the issue before and I'm not sure how to fix it

little swift
#

Make sure resolution still matches native?

wintry chasm
#

Okay second really stupid question (I'm bad with computers)

#

I forgot what my resolution is

little swift
#

Right click your desktop and click personalize

#

Check your resolution

stoic meteor
#

Hey there, my fc and i have been trying to spawn the Foxy Lady fate for a few hours today, unsuccesful so far after doing the 2 requisites a few times, so thought i'll ask for more help since as it may interest other people to get the rewards. Any help would be much appreciated, we're on Louisoix. Lemme know if you see or manage to spawn it on any Chaos server. Thank you ❤️
I'd ping chaos role for it but im kinda reluctant, is it ok if i do ?

little swift
#

Sorry @wintry chasm its display settings

wintry chasm
#

Yep thanks

#

I found it anyway

#

Please no @stoic meteor

stoic meteor
#

ok thought so 🙂

wintry chasm
#

Also if you want to be called out when it pops join a hunt linkshell in your server/data center

#

It'd be really helpful. They keep track of stuff like that

rugged pewter
#

hi, newbie here, what class is appropriate for someone looking to be a support / healer?

#

Conjurer?

wintry chasm
#

or you can play arcanist which starts as a DPS but can unlock Scholar which is healer

#

One of those two

#

The other healer you have to get to Heavensward to unlock

#

Which is the first expansion

rugged pewter
#

can i unlock Scholar within ARR

#

ill get the expansions later

wintry chasm
#

yes you have to get to level 30 as an arcanist and do do your class quests/get a certain amount in main story

rugged pewter
#

ah ok

patent cave
#

i regret not starting with arcanist tbh

#

but go with what you like

#

you can learn all the jobs youl ike

wintry chasm
#

Arcanist/Scholar as an added bonus of also being able to unlock Summoner which is a DPS

rugged pewter
#

oh awesome

wintry chasm
#

and Summoner and Scholar share levels

#

so you get a two in one package

sinful nacelle
#

I completed the novus stage of my relic weapon, how do I get a replica of it? Or do I have to fully complete the relic in order to buy a replica of this stage?

indigo orbit
#

If it's available you buy it from a calamity salvager

sinful nacelle
#

I see, many thanks

patent cave
#

so to recruit new members to my squadron, i just do anything from the challenge log?

indigo orbit
#

You have a chance of getting a new recruit

obsidian patio
#

You can only get a replica for the zodiac weapon after completing the whole thing

scarlet arrow
#

pretty much @indigo orbit

patent cave
#

right so just do anything and ill have a chance

scarlet arrow
#

oops

#

wrong tag

sinful nacelle
#

I see, thanks @obsidian patio

patent cave
#

does it have to be a specific category of challenge?

indigo orbit
#

Nope

scarlet arrow
#

sorry 😅

obsidian patio
#

Also you need to keep the original weapon to get replicas unless you exchange the weapon to get the thingies needed for the first step of an anima weapon

indigo orbit
#

I get them all the time from gold saucer challenges

patent cave
#

yeah i was about to say lol

#

gold saucer it is

obsidian patio
#

Only zodiac is like this, Anima and Eureka weapons simply need you to be past the step you want a replica of

#

(I think Anima wants i230 or i240 step done to let you buy replicas though)

sinful nacelle
#

meh, I'll just check drake after each stage

#

many thanks

The big city market stalls only have the other colors

#

marketboard

rough anchor
#

What’s that?

#

Is it something I need to unlock via MSQ

obsidian patio
#

Pretty sure not, you should be able to interact with the marketboard in the city state marketplaces

wintry chasm
#

^

#

Can't do it on free trial and that's basically it

wooden glen
#

I seem to be accumulating items in my inventory. Most of them are for crafting, I think. What should I do with them?

obsidian patio
#

If it has a “Shop Selling Price” listed you can safely discard it since that means you can buy it from a vendor

#

Otherwise try having your retainer sell it on the marketboard

serene carbon
#

Is it possible to trade with someone from another World (Same Data Center)

#

?

obsidian patio

The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties.

More information

wooden glen
#

I haven't looked into retainers, but I don't think I can use the marketboard as I'm still on the trial.

serene carbon
#

Awesome thanks! Will look into that

wintry chasm
#

You'd be right Digital

wooden glen
#

I mean, you said that right before I asked, lol

wintry chasm
#

The only way you can get that dye then is by doing the Ixal beast tribe quests and buying it from their vendor (need a fairly high rank) or by simply crafting

obsidian patio
#

(Which you also can’t do as unlocking the Ixal requires level 40-something MSQ)

wintry chasm
#

Oh

#

Good point

#

.>

#

Then the last option, simply crafting it

wooden glen
#

I believe in you, Dead.

#

You'll find a way to solo those unobtainable quests at 35.

wintry chasm
#

Well there is one last easy way

wooden glen
#

Second Question: What's the best/recommended way to buy the full game?

wintry chasm
#

Where did you get the free trial Digital?

wooden glen
#

Downloaded it from the website (not Steam, which is what I think you're asking)

wintry chasm
#

Right then you can buy it from Steam or Non-Steam. I can't really think of any recommended things besides the distinction between the two. Once you're in one you're locked into it and the general opinion is that Non-Steam is less hassle?

#

but going Steam does allow you to use your Steam wallet

#

if you value that

wooden glen
#

I'm going to make some guesses here.

#

Shadowbringers is $40, but probably doesn't include the base game or prior expansions.

wintry chasm
#

Shadowbringers is all the expansions but no base game

wooden glen
#

Complete Edition is $60, but has everything.

wintry chasm
#

That one is correct

obsidian patio
#

FFXIV bundles the older expansions in with the new one

wooden glen
#

I think I actually have a Twitch code for ARR somewhere...

#

Maybe that was just 30 days

wintry chasm
#

I wouldn't be surprised if that was expired and I'm pretty sure I know what you are on about

#

That would have been the base game

wooden glen
#

Yes, it was a code for the base game and 30 days, and I found it. But no idea if/when it would have expired.

wintry chasm
#

Base game gives 30 days by default

#

Try redeeming it

wooden glen
#

Well, I guess I can just try it later, and if it works, cool, buy Shadowbringers for $40. If it doesn't, buy Complete for $60.

rugged crypt
#

If you buy shadowbringers you get all the previous DLC right?

Yes

I'm trying to hunt down an item from the 2017 amazon promo, the eastern journey battle staff I discarded it at some point. Can you get it back from the Calamity Salvager?

surreal rock
#

Is it possible to outright disable hotbar 1's ability to switch between hotbars?

obsidian patio
#

Nope. :/ @dense kelp

dense kelp
#

I actually found it ablobjoy thank you for answering it though!

obsidian patio
#

@surreal rock pretty sure not, though you can ‘cheat’ the system by not using the first hotbar for your skills

#

You’ll still need it around for mounts with special actions though and a few other things

surreal rock
#

blegh, oh well

#

so, I asked because it was causing me significant problems - I had everything on hotbar 1 memorized so I made it invisible, but then it cycled somehow and caused a terribly weird issue where my hotbar 1 hotkeys were activating my (visible) hotbar 2, and it took me ages to figure out

#

I later discovered that my hotbar 1 cycle hotkeys were stupidly easy to press on accident - I'd set them very early on, so I didn't even know what they were lol

#

it's all good now, thanks for letting me know I'll need it later

obsidian patio
#

You could also unbind the cycle hot bars keybinds

#

They’re in the system section of keybinds

surreal rock
#

yep, that's what I did

#

Is there any way to get the outfits on the mog station without using rl $

obsidian patio
#

Nope

#

Though the dyes do have tradeable versions ingame

#

I have a question about chocobo companions, is stabling them then feeding them once every hour the same as fighting with them, as in they are both just ways to gain exp?

whole wasp
#

Yup but you have to fight with them at 100% exp to level up

cold scarab
#

So you can go 99% of the way via feeding, then finish off with fighting or just fight the whole way?

obsidian patio
#

Either way works

#

hey everyone i have a quick question regarding the ordering process i just bought the ffxiv complete online edition on SE but the order is still processing does this usually take a long time?

#

it's been 30 minutes

obsidian patio
#

But they need to fight something when the bar is full to level up

#

@frail jewel I haven’t ordered from the SE store myself, but I hear most people say it can take an hour or two. If it goes past 24 hours then contact customer service

frail jewel
#

ah ok gotcha thank you so much!

open coral
#

Keep in mind as well that this is a holiday weekend in the US (MLK Day is tomorrow).

#

So that might affect timing.

frail jewel
#

ok! Imma wait got a while longer and see if it gets resolved

Hi guys so I just install the launched and Im getting 'a system error has occurred: -2146697211 HTTPS System error. I've searched online and nothing worked, heres the list of thing i have done:

  1. reinstall/uninstall.
  2. change dns to google public dns
  3. traced frontier.ffxiv.com and connection worked.
  4. flashed my dns
  5. enable ssl 1.2 but i cannot find tls 2.0
  6. enlist ffxiv and frontier.ffxiv as trusted site.
  7. tried enable and disable firewall.

Does leaving a command mission or cancelling it after the start duty popup count towards the duty leaver penalty count?

It shouldn't since it should count as a premade

Though i've never actually tried it

#

I think i got hit by it once and thinking its dumb but that was ages ago and i could be misremembering.

leaden ginkgo
#

it's fine, I dipped out of command missions all the time when I was doing them

deft anvil
#

Cool. Is there a way to see if doing a thing has given a duty leaver penalty?

fresh lodge
#

Not without testing it yourself

#

But generally if you search for other players then leave, you'll get the penalty

#

Undersized not often

deft anvil
#

It's just not clear what CMs count as, if anything - is it a "preformed party" with AI? Am I alone? Well, I've just quit one and not had a 30-min penalty preventing me from queueing for other things, so that seems to answer that.

crystal bluff
#

do all mounts move at the same speed?

obsidian patio
#

For the most part, yes.

#

The SDS Fenrir bike from the mogstation moves as if it already has the first speed boost for the zone which is typically from completing the story.

crystal bluff
#

ah

it is a dope mount though, if you have the spare cash go for it

Nope, only the MSQ speed buff

north pilot
#

what do you do with the 'faded' copies of torn music sheets or whatever . ive found a few of them now

whole wasp
#

an ALC can use them as raw materials to craft proper orchestrion rolls. If you dont have a ALC or are not interested, you can sell them on the MarketBoard

#

most of them aren't worth much so you can sell them to an NPC vendor or just toss them

north pilot
#

gotcha, thx

You probably have that hotbar set to shared

Is there any way to keep track or show the dots I apply and differentiate it from the same dot from another party member?

crude relic
#

Mmk, I just gave Niddy the ultimate fuck you so how many quests roughly do I have before I get to 4.0? I forget the number from 3.0-the start of 4.0.

twilit arch
#

Your dots, assuming they're within the 30 show limit, are always the first ones

whole wasp
#

dots you apply have the countdown timer in green. there is an option somewhere to make it the first ones to show on the mob

twilit arch
#

no, the option is to make it only show your dots

whole wasp
#

oh? oops

fresh lodge
#

@crude relic Did you just complete ||The Aery||?

crude relic
#

Nah, It was ||The Final Steps of Faith||.

fresh lodge
#

You're pretty close

#

You would have just finished 3.3

cold scarab
#

Where is the option to only show my dots and not others?

crude relic
#

And I have 3.4 left or is there a 3.5? I forget XD

twilit arch
#

there's a 3.5

crude relic
#

Mmk, so roughly 20-30 more quests then?

twilit arch
#

21~

crude relic
#

Gotcha

twilit arch
#

Something to keep in mind however is that mobs can only have up to 30 debuffs show up at a time, so even with that option ticked, if there are 30+ it won't show yours

obsidian patio
#

You really only run into the debuffs limit for Eureka and big boss fates nowadays

#

Since a lot of surplus debuffs and damage over time moves got removed in shadowbringers.

cold scarab
#

@twilit arch Thanks

crystal bluff
#

As a samurai, I assume I'll be stuck using augmented ironworks katana until I get to heavensward content in the MSQ?

hey, is the upcoming treasure trove event going to be similar to the previous event where you spam PvP to get the most out of the coins?

patent cave
#

so im on a different job trying to cast a glamour, but my neck piece wont apply the glamour even though i should be able to equip it

#

any ideas?

leaden ginkgo

the glam item is probably higher level than the actual piece you have equipped

patent cave
#

oh thats interesting

#

#

so its item level based too

leaden ginkgo

There are a few cases where a piece of equipment is lower item level but higher level to equip than something else

what's an efficient way to farm light for a zodiac relic?

@sinful nacelle Tam-Tara Deepcroft normal, Ifrit Normal, and Turn 4 of the binding coil of the bahamut are the fastest methods

#

Undersized, of course

#

@frank wigeon I think in terms of time spent to tokens received Praetorium, Castrum, and maybe the 24-mans are your best bet.

@obsidian patio many thanks

#

is there a way to buy less than max quantity on mb

slate arrow
#

no

#

besides waiting

jade quartz
#

Sellers deciding the quantity they want to sell in is a designed part of the market.

#

E.g. selling in bulk for a discount, selling individually for a bit more, figuring out what quantities players are likely to want things in.

#

pros/cons

#

i think gw2 has had the best auction house/marketplace

as a buyer anyway

#

i got some "antique" gear from a dungeon, what do i do with it?

jade quartz
#

It is exchangeable for ilvl 90 level 50 job artefact gear—the same kind you get from the coffer rewards by your level 50 job quest.

crystal bluff
#

ah

jade quartz
#

It’s just a way to reclaim that gear if you lose it.

Otherwise it’s useless to you.

Does anyone know the current spawn rate for portals in regards to timeworn zonureskin maps?
Trying to find the original reddit post for this

obsidian patio
#

@leaden ginkgo Can't say, though from personal it feels like 20-25% chance

leaden ginkgo
#

Does the number of people running maps dictate the spawn rate for Lhye Ghiah?

#

Could've swore I saw a thread on it

twilit arch
#

no

jade quartz
#

When the Aquapolis (HW map dungeons) were first released, dev comments indicated that it was a 50% chance. There have been multiple times since then where people have asserted that the portal rate was changed or nerfed with a patch at some point

fresh lodge
#

Its a flat 50/50

jade quartz
#

However from my experience with maps in SB and ShB it still feels like 50-50 is accurate.

How to get the emperor's new set?

twilit arch

either buy off the marketboard or level a crafter (that's not cul) to 15 and do the quest "Absolutely glamourous" to be able to buy it from tataroga in mor dhona or goberin in vesper bay

Said quest is located in Vesper Bay

What level should I discard my shire gear?

jade quartz
#

When you get gear that’s better than it (though you may want to keep it for alt jobs)

#

You’re likely to first begin to obtain gear better than it at level 64–65

near depot
#

From dungeons?

jade quartz
#

64 HQ crafted gear from MSQ (though you may want to use this free gear for other jobs or sell it since it’s not considerably better than augmented shire)

#

65 gear from 65 dungeon.

#

Oh, augment your shire if you have leftover poetics and you haven’t yet.

based on experience does anyone know the greatest way to get moogles with the treasure trove in 9 hours? PvP or Pve raid etc. thank you very much

is there a way to center an element on the x axis on the hud layout menu

I think Shift and Control make the UI element move on the grid?

can't remember the exact difference between them

ohh i just noticed theres a thin white line in the center

i never saw that before

shift seems to snap to grid

might've been alt then

You can stick your retainer outside your house,but other than that no

whats up with this items

theyre higher ilvl but have waaaay worse stats than my augmented scaevan

set?

#

i gain +2 magic damage but i lose like 100 crit and direct hit

fresh lodge
#

What item?

stray saffron
#

substats mean nothing

#

weapon damage and main stat are all that matter

clear bronze
#

its just a 406 weapon vs my 400 augmented scaevan

stray saffron
#

1 weapon damage is worth at least 100 crit/DH, prolly more

fresh lodge
#

406 weapon would be better if its HQ

clear bronze
#

its one from qitana ravel

fresh lodge
#

Then yeah

#

Its better

clear bronze
#

even though i lose all that crit and stuff

stray saffron
#

[11:10 PM] sade: 1 weapon damage is worth at least 100 crit/DH, prolly more

fresh lodge
#

Yes

clear bronze
#

whoa

#

really

#

holy shit

fresh lodge
#

Ehhh

stray saffron
#

weapon damage >>>>> main stat >>>>>> all substatas

obsidian patio
#

also it's not like the qitana weapon is only main stat and weapon damage

#

it has secondary stats too

clear bronze
#

wat about armor

fresh lodge
#

Armour is the same

clear bronze
#

whats the main stat u guys refer to

stray saffron
#

after level 50 armor values are normalized

#

str/dex/int/mind

clear bronze
#

and armor is main stat >> substats

stray saffron
#

no

#

main stats are str, dex, int and mind

#

armor is the same for all pieces of the same level, you're never specifically chasing armor

clear bronze
#

so should i upgrade armor based on ilvl

obsidian patio
#

for the most part, yeah

clear bronze
#

i know theres differences in set

#

depending if u want more of 1 sub stat

#

BiS stuff

obsidian patio
#

min-maxing secondary stats is a marginal increase in damage for the most part

fresh lodge
#

You don't care about BiS until you're at the cap

#

And even then you only care if you're raiding

I’m kinda embarassed to ask for this favor but here goes. I’m trying to speed run the whole heavensward alliance raid. Long story short, I’m trying to at least unlock dun scaith for glamour purposes. I story boosted so I have most side contents locked. I barely have time to play the game and whenever I’m on, queues for alliance raid take hours, and I mostly play late nights PT, which really doesnt help ☹️ That being said, I’m trying to recruit at least enough people to do the questline unsynced.
