(okay maybe not still ARR but still)

#

lol yeah

#

im actually considering taking a DPS class beyond my WHM to lead the story and then level WHM purely on dungeons

scarlet arrow
#

if you juggle the MSQ quests properly you can keep at least two, possibly 3 jobs at your MSQ level. You might not be able to keep them all at the same gear level without doing sidequests/crafting/buying from npc vendors though

visual flame
#

yeah thats true but you can always swap to your "main" for those

Hi, I stopped playing at lv 50 (finished ARR story) a few months ago
and thinking to come back
How is pvp doing in this days or still dead? and story really become better after ARR?

slate arrow
#

PvP is usually active during the afternoon for frontlines

#

There's also irregular tomestones as a reward for rival wings at the moment

Hi. I started the game recently. I'm still on free trial but I'm definitely going to buy the game.
The thing is, I'm already lvl 27 but my friend, who's also going to start playing is lvl 1. I'm willing to create a new char and play with him to the point that he's lvl 27, so that we can keep playing together but I'll switch to my first toon. However, I'm only allowed to create one character on a world as a free trial. Is there any way around this? What do you offer? We're going to recruit each other after we reach level cap of 35 on free trial. Thanks in advance.

slate arrow
#

just use the armory system and start leveling a new class

#

You have all the features up to level 35 so take advantage of that

icy quiver
#

thanks

upbeat storm
#

im not sure if you can recruit each other

slate arrow
#

pretty sure you can't recruit until you actually pay for a sub

upbeat storm
#

i tried that with my friend and only the initial recruiter got the rewards]

slate arrow
#

(not the 30 free play days)

upbeat storm
#

i recreuited and got the initial rewards and im still not charged

#

just none of the X days ones

marsh eagle
#

I was told that we can recruit each other after we buy the game (a realm reborn) and we can only during that period of 30 days that come with it

upbeat storm
#

you can only use recruit code before you pay

#

but i think once you recruit someone you cant use the code for yourself

icy quiver
#

How often SE release patch?

twilit arch
#

roughly every 3 mos

slate arrow
#

depends on which patch you're talking about

icy quiver
#

5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and so

twilit arch
#

roughly every 3 mos or so

slate arrow
#

yeah every three months then

#

5.2 is coming out in about a month

icy quiver
#

oh thanks
and they give enough content until next one?

slate arrow
#

no

upbeat storm
#

whats the general length of time a server is preferred

slate arrow
#

well yes but no depending on your playstyle

#

@upbeat storm depends on the server

#

NA switches pretty regularly

#

other servers usually only change per patch

upbeat storm
#

expected time famfrit has laeft

marsh eagle
#

If I switch classes and level together, I'd miss the MSQs. Would that make a huge change on level?

slate arrow
#

no

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ
Info

'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'

As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.

'How much is the bonus experience?'

You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.

slate arrow
#

@upbeat storm no clue because crystal servers switch the most and least often

#

See: Balmung being congested for like 3 patches straight

#

(not literally but you get my point)

#

wait uh

icy quiver
#

thanks for help

upbeat storm
#

is there a general list of what items are used/ in demand

#

i know it varies between servers but a general list would help

slate arrow
#

tomestone items (multifaceted stuff), most HQ 450 crafted gears, aethersand, sublime solution

#

Materia

#

(crafter control materia especially)

marsh eagle
#

A question regaring the question of StaveMan:
Seeing that Mateus is currently congested, when would be the time that a change "might" occur? Like... every 3 months?

slate arrow
#

it depends

#

NA servers change most often

#

Often changing without a patch

twilit arch
#

it usually happens around a maintenance

#

so a major or minor patch can possible bring server changes

marsh eagle
#

Is there an official place that I can read about following changes or maintenance times?

slate arrow
#

the lodestone

languid kernel
#

if im playing with another summoner/scholar how can I tell who's bio is on the enemy?

marsh eagle
#

Thanks

slate arrow
#

Your personal status effects have green text

twilit arch
#

Your dots will always be the first ones on the list

#

and they will have green text

languid kernel
#

ok thanks

slate arrow
#

Do note the first ones isnt always true

#

I've had times where mine never appeared

#

(namely on alliance bosses)

twilit arch
#

its only not true if there's more than 30 dots already on the boss

#

therefore it won't show up on the visual limit

slate arrow
#

ah that explains why

upbeat storm
#

do people usually buy glamour prisms in 99 stacks

slate arrow
#

yes

#

I keep a small stack in my inventory for emergency glam situations

upbeat storm
#

so theres no point in going lower stacks

slate arrow
#

not really besides being cheap but most of the time most easy to get items always come in large quantities

twilit arch
#

Personally would look at the sale history

#

plenty of people don't buy 99 stack

upbeat storm
#

i mean i would look at history

#

but its mostly 99 being sold and bought

#

the other stack values are higher price so people arent buying

twilit arch
#

could list a stack of 10 at a lower price value and see how fast it sells

slate arrow
#

yep that sounds about right

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there anything I can do to save space because I do a lot of glamour stuff and I keep armor pieces just for that but they clog up my inventory a lot

upbeat storm
#

isnt there a chest at the inn

languid kernel
#

you can buy white stuff right

slate arrow
#

glamour drawer

#

retainers

#

What white stuff

#

There's white dye

#

There's white scrips

languid kernel
#

you dont need to hold on to white gear, cuz its available at vendor

raven sage
#

That depends entirely on if it has a shop selling price

#

Some of it is only crafted sometimes

#

when i level up inside a duty roulette,does my reward increase with the level or should i level up before queueing?

vocal vigil
#

hello

#

anyone here?

twilit arch
#

@leaden ginkgo afaik, you're getting a % so i don't really think its worth worrying about making sure you've leveled up before you do your roulette. just queue up and quest as normal

vocal vigil
#

hi, i am new here and i have a lot of questions :3 someone can tell me how i can change my free trial on normal payment version of the game?

slate arrow
#

1: buy the normal or complete edition of the game on the SE store or steam if you want the steam version

#

2: redeem the key on Mogstation after you get it

#

!faq Mogstation

zinc orbitBOT
vocal vigil
#

i dont want steam version ;x

slate arrow
#

Then buy the game off the SE store, Amazon, or Humble Bundle

vocal vigil
#

can i but it in game store or something?

twilit arch
#

there is no ingame store

slate arrow
#

There is no in game store

#

The closest is Mogstation but you can't access it in game

manic oasis
#

U need the steam version to get the dlc from steam

vocal vigil
#

slate arrow
#

vocal vigil
#

#

slate arrow
#

You'll have to get the full launcher I'm fairly sure

#

The trial launcher the full launcher are separate

vocal vigil
#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

ohh damnt

#

so i have to wait with that to weekend, then i will get better internet connection

#

can i contunue my character from free trial or i have to start from beggining?

crystal bluff
#

You can use the same character

vocal vigil
#

thats fine

crystal bluff
#

In the meantime you can work on raising other jobs to 35 if you want

vocal vigil
#

but i cant talk with people now

#

thats make me sad ๐Ÿ˜›

#

i have a lot of questions but i cant ask anyone in game

#

Best way to lv retainers?

vocal vigil
#

oh god i was walking from 3th lvl! thank you so much!

slate arrow
#

quick ventures followed by your highest level 18 hour venture

twilit arch
#

No, not quick ventures

vocal vigil
#

how is Best way to lv retainers?

twilit arch
#

send them out on the hunting/gathering missions

vocal vigil
#

i am doing all missions now ๐Ÿ˜›

upbeat storm
#

Does it matter what I send retainers to gather

twilit arch
#

send them out on the highest level gathering/hunting mission

rich bay
#

@vocal vigil, the trial and the ful version does actually share the same launcher.
I discovered it when i needed to make a new user account on my PC.
The launcher does regconize which version you play, so you just can use launcher that you use now.

twilit arch
#

send them out on the hour, every hour you're on and then when you log off for the night send them out on the highest 18hr mission

vocal vigil
#

but i dont have steam version now, so where i should buy normal one?

upbeat storm
#

Do retainers eventually pay for themselves in terms of the tokens?

slate arrow
#

SE store, Amazon, or Humble Bundle

#

Any third party retailer sells the regular PC key

#

Only place to get a steam key is off steam

twilit arch
#

yeah, getting venture tokens isn't really that hard/expensive at max level

#

can easily cap out just running expert dungeons to cap tomestones

vocal vigil
#

where is different between cheap key or this expensive one?

slate arrow
#

the starter edition is commonly 20 dollars/euros

#

Make sure you purchase the right region key

#

NA, EU and other regions, or JP

#

the "expensive" key is probably the complete edition which included shadowbringers

wintry chasm
#

^ please be specific

slate arrow
#

(which also comes with all the expansions)

wintry chasm
#

There are 3 codes. One is the base game (the starter edition), one is Shadowbringers which is all the expansions (getting both of these gets you everything for the game.)
The last one is the complete edition which is both of those in one which Industrial mentioned

vocal vigil
#

but i need this to play?

#

thats good one?

wintry chasm
#

Again

#

There are 3 codes. One is the base game (the starter edition), one is Shadowbringers which is all the expansions (getting both of these gets you everything for the game.)
The last one is the complete edition which is both of those in one which Industrial mentioned

visual flame
#

considering leveling multiple classes - can anyone tell me if all casters share gear? white mage, black mage, scholar, summoner, etc

#

woops lol early send

wintry chasm
#

Your two options are get the base game after the free trial and buy Shadowbringers at a later date or just buy the complete edition and buy both

#

DPS magic jobs share the same gear

#

Healers share the same gear

visual flame
#

okay, no overlap tho?

indigo orbit
#

not after 50

wintry chasm
#

Not after ARR

slate arrow
#

Casters share gear until level 49

#

Casters and healers

visual flame
#

oh ok. thats useful actually because im trying to grind through ARR MSQ with multiple

indigo orbit
#

Once you hit 50 you'll start getting gear that's "Of Casting" or "Of Healing"

visual flame
#

so i could do magic dps and then just heal whenever i want

#

cool cool

#

you guys are the best, thank you

indigo orbit
#

I mean you can deal damage as a healer

wintry chasm
#

You'd need the healing class/job's weapon but sure

visual flame
#

im already WHM, i am just considering a magic dps

crystal bluff
#

Looking to pick up a healer or tank job, what would you say is the easiest for a new-ish player

indigo orbit
#

WHM is the most straightforward healer

vocal vigil
#

I have to buy it every month?

languid kernel
#

paladin

slate arrow
#

what is it

#

Sub time yes

wintry chasm
#

Any really. Just don't pick one that starts at a higher level and try doing those higher level fights without actually practising

slate arrow
#

Alternatively, you can buy the standard sub in up to 180 day increments at a time

wintry chasm
#

Other than that none of them are actually all that difficult to learn

crystal bluff
#

Alright

#

I'll look up what the differences between them all are and see what looks to most fun

indigo orbit
#

GNB has a lot of buttons to press more than other tanks but it's not really difficult

languid kernel
#

paladin has clemency, which is a very strong heal, so you can tank and heal :D

vocal vigil
#

so if i want have a full wersion of the game, this Shadowbringers, i have to pay 35$ every month?

slate arrow
#

no

crystal bluff
#

No

indigo orbit
#

No it's more like $15

#

a month

slate arrow
#

sub is only up to 15 dollars a month

crystal bluff
#

Sub is like 15-month

slow crypt
#

there is a basic sub

slate arrow
#

down to 13 dollars a month

vocal vigil
#

thats price of starter

slate arrow
#

no starter is 20 dollars

#

we're talking USD numbers here

wintry chasm
#

Yeah the sub isn't a full game price per month

#

lol

vocal vigil
slate arrow
#

unless there's a sale going on somewhere we're always talking regular price

vocal vigil
#

tahts 9,99$

#

thats*

shell dagger
#

would anyone be able to help me with some lore questions?

slate arrow
crystal bluff
slate arrow
#

is where I'd ask but sure

shell dagger
#

no, i'm not going in there. i'm too worried about shadowbringers spoilers

slate arrow
#

Still sub time is always static

shell dagger
#

or else i would've done so already

wintry chasm
#

Spoiler tag and ask here Arienne

twilit arch
#

recent conversation isn't shb related

slate arrow
#

There's never a sale on sub time

shell dagger
#

thanks.

crystal bluff
twilit arch
#

no

wintry chasm
slate arrow
crystal bluff
#

O lul

twilit arch
#

that was for the start of the expac

vocal vigil
#

but on sc store its 9,99$ ?

dry glade
#

so is fate badges based on individual position or group? I keep getting gold even though I join a fate half way through. I can't be #1 can I?

slate arrow
#

Because it's on sale probably

twilit arch
#

if you're getting gold, then you did enough dmg to get gold

wintry chasm
#

^

twilit arch
#

its not necessarily that you're #1

slate arrow
#

@dry glade the medals are always personal ratings

#

There's no competition in pve content

#

Only personal performance

twilit arch
#

well, yes and no

#

being in a group can get you gold even if all you did was hit it once

visual flame
#

another question, sorry. how does this work for arcanist/summoner/scholar? are all 3 really shared? "Level is shared between job and primary class once that job is unlocked. For example, if you level a Summoner to 40, then swap over to its base class (Arcanist), the latter will also be at level 40. Both the primary class and its respective job will always be the same level, regardless of which you play as."

dry glade
#

ok, that makes more sense then. I was thinking it was ranking vs other players. But I didn't see how I was getting gold.

twilit arch
#

so long as the group as a whole did enough

wintry chasm
#

Wew saved Arienne

#

Oh

#

RIP

shell dagger
#

yeah fuck, i pressed enter too soon

dry glade
#

Yes @visual flame

shell dagger
#

hold on ๐Ÿ˜›

stray saffron
#

you gain arcanist experience anytime you're on ACN, SCH or SMN

slate arrow
#

@visual flame yes since you get arcanist EXP

#

so arcanist = Summoner and Scholar EXP

visual flame
#

wow

#

so i can level a summoner

#

then swap to scholar any time

twilit arch
#

yeah

wintry chasm
#

Yes

dry glade
#

I never play my sch but my sch is ranked the same as my sum.

visual flame
#

this game rules

stray saffron
#

you will still have to do the other's job quests before you can really play it

twilit arch
#

just make sure you've got gear for the opposite

wintry chasm
#

But do remember to do job quests for both of those jobs so you get all the skills

twilit arch
#

and do the job quests

visual flame
#

gotcha

stray saffron
#

and yeah, separate kind of gear for caster DPS vs. healer

visual flame
#

makes sense

vocal vigil
#

where is diffrence between pc or pc download? i dont know chich i should buy

stray saffron
#

PC is a physical box shipped to your house

#

PC download is a download code

vocal vigil
#

makes sense ๐Ÿ˜„ THANKS

dry glade
#

If you want the physical goodies get PC and wait. If you want to play now and can live without the toys, download.

visual flame
#

(you guys are so awesome at answering questions and im bored at work so im just gonna keep going)

shell dagger
#

ok, so here's my question, and here's where i'm at -- ||just finished that scene in heavensward epilogue, where the warriors of darkness met up with the warriors of light, and it was revealed that urianger had been two timing the warriors of darkness to do something. now this is where i'm confused... what did urianger do exactly? he planned minfilia's death to save "the first"? what is the first? this second world of hydaelyn? i did some googling and hydaelyn = "the source". and "the first" is a world in "the source". so what is eorzea/etc on? i haven't gone further down the story than this, but i do know - from some googling - that "the first" was once sort of balanced by light/dark, but now there's too much light, which is why the warriors of darkness is called as such. and then later on in shadowbringers, the warrior of light goes and bring some darkness back to "the first" i guess?? idk||

visual flame
#

should i be saving all $$ as a new player? i basically only use it for teleport

shell dagger
#

that was really long haha

wintry chasm
#

First off

#

Don't use the fandom wiki

crystal bluff
#

@visual flame just teleport

wintry chasm
#

It's notoriously bad with lore

crystal bluff
#

The cost becomes really insignificant

wintry chasm
#

Give me a bit to write out an answer though

shell dagger
#

thank you!! ๐Ÿ™‚

visual flame
#

@crystal bluff thats what i figured. i didnt know if there was anything worth buying for an early boost. my money is just piling up and i dont notice lol

crystal bluff
#

Most good gear comes from crafting and dungeon drops I think anyways

wintry chasm
#

What channel do you think you are in?

slate arrow
rich bay
#

Good gear is tomestone gear. ๐Ÿ˜

crystal bluff
#

Ah

#

The only tomestone gear I've unlocked so far is ironworks gear

slate arrow
#

the best gear is always the stuff you buy with tomestones or from the raid

junior yacht
#

Crafted gear is meant to act as a quick boost/stepping stone on the way to Tome and Raid gear

crystal bluff
#

I found some "sky rat" gear on the marketplace for like 20k total and it was like 3x better than the stuff I was wearing lol

junior yacht
#

well that's leveling gear

#

which mostly means your gear was outdated

#

Sky Rat is level 60 gear
the level 60 tome set, Shire gear, is even better

crystal bluff
#

I had augmented ironworks stuff on.
When do I start getting the level 60 tomes? I assume when I get to heavensward content?

shell dagger
#

^ yes

wintry chasm
#

||You basically got the jist of what Urianger did. He knew that Minfilia went to the lifestream where she got picked up by Hydaelyn (the crystal not the world for absolute clarity) so that she can act as an agent of Her will. Using this information, the next part of his plan was to set up the fight between you and the Warrior's of Darkness so that you can give your crystals up to Hydaelyn so she can get enough strength to send Minfillia to The First so she can save it from the flood of light that is obliterating it. As to what the First is (and what Industrial accidentally said without spoiler tags, is another world. You would have heard from Minfilia/Hydaelyn already that the world was split into 14 after she beat Zodiark. The First is one of those "shards." For clarity again that's 13 shards and our world "The Source." I won't get into Shadowbringers stuff because spoilers but yes the whole point the Warrior's of Darkness came here was to cause a calamity on the Source so that their world can be rejoined to the Source. It'd kill everyone on The First but at least their aether would go back to the lifestream and in a weird twisted way they'd live on. If their world was to be entirely consumed by the light then nothing would exist anymore basically. No living on whatsoever no matter how you twist it. Also for the cause of the flood. Arbert mentions it was kinda their fault for being too good at their job and beating the ascians in The First|| @shell dagger

poetics are the "all old content" tomestone for 50, 60 and 0

so follow up questions -- ||what is the Zodiark? is that the opposite of Hydaelyn? did Urianger orchestrate the entire falling down / destruction of the Ul'dah tunnels at the end of the ARR epilogue so he could save The First? why is The First so important anyway? why should i care basically, that some random warriors came in and basically threatened to kill me because their world is destroyed?|| or are these questions leaning too far into shadowbringers spoilers...

wintry chasm

||1) Yes 2) Kael made me edit my previous comments so do check back. Urianger more used the events of that and not really set it up. 3) because that's a world full of millions of people you coldhearted human being 4) Man do you blame a man trying to save their world after THEY caused it by doing what they thought was right and beating the bad guys if it only takes the death of a single person?|| @shell dagger

Don't worry there's a lot of lore and people miss stuff all the time

||1) Yes 2) It gets expanded upon but in 3.2 Hydaelyn says that light and darkness dwelled as one and Zodiark (darkness) coveted more power so she banished him also yes all this world stuff was in patch 3.2||

damn... i don't remember that dungeon at all

I DID IT!

#

anyhow. this has been insanely helpful. thank you so much!! i'm going to take a screenshot of your earlier answer, calisaie, super helpful to refer back to

vocal vigil
#

i can send message now ๐Ÿ™‚ thats awesome, i should do only main quest?

crystal bluff
#

Focus main quest and job quests

wintry chasm
#

The big things you should be doing (you can do more if you want but this is the general essentials) is do your main story msq and do the bluequest that aren't "So you want to be XXXX" which are class unlocks or Leves of "XXXX" which are more for crafting and gathering

#

You do want to do more than just your job quests in terms of bluequest

shell dagger
#

(oh that's so cute you guys have the quest emojis on this discord...)

wintry chasm
#

So many of them are helpful or flat out just cool like the ARR 24-man raid

vocal vigil
#

thanks for advice

#

can i buy eq in game? or just got it from quest?

crystal bluff
#

Eq?

manic oasis
#

for summoner, egi assault 1 and 2 share the same cooldown, so why is the rotation to do it one after another?

#

and videos too

twilit arch
#

they don't share cds

manic oasis
#

but when i played it did D:

twilit arch
#

they both have 30s cds but using one doesn't put the other on cooldown

crystal bluff
#

@vocal vigil if you mean equipment, there are vendors in every major city, as well as market boards to buy from the player market. There is also drops from dungeons etc

manic oasis
#

i mean gcd

#

the 2.5s

twilit arch
#

yeah, cos they're gcds now

so i should still do them one after another?

Glamour Dresser FAQ
Info

"What is the Glamour Dresser?"

The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.

"How do I use it?"

In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".

When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.

What is the fastest way to get moogle tomestones without BLU?

slate arrow
#

do rival wings

strong citrus
#

I've had long queue waits for RW, it's best because it doesn't care what job you are, but if no one is doing it the queue will sit for 20+ minutes

#

We just got a group of people together and did the alliance raids. Whiping City has been reduced to less than 30 minutes and Dun Scaith with a decent group is about 40

leaden ginkgo
#

Idk I just go msq the short one

strong citrus
#

Those are just long because you can't skip custscenes.

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah there are cut scenes but people donโ€™t wipe. You donโ€™t even have to do a full rotation things just for

strong citrus
#

The raids and dungeons and such you can

leaden ginkgo
#

Die

#

True, but the Q time for MSQ is 5-7 minutes

strong citrus
#

WC has gotten a lot better, and so has Dun Scaith. Rarely have I come across a full wipe.

leaden ginkgo
#

Vs, a trial thatโ€™s 30 minutes Q time as a dps

#

Or raid w.e

strong citrus
#

If you are a DPS yes it will probably be that long to queue solo

#

That's why I mentioned grab a few friends.

leaden ginkgo
#

But if youโ€™re a healer or tank Q for a raid, DPS Q for MSQ is really short

strong citrus
#

As a healer I usually get a queue pop solo in about 3-5 mintues

junior yacht
#

queue

strong citrus
#

But yeah if you can gather some friends it will go quicker naturally. People have been chucking stuff up in PF for farms and such too

Hi! Where is the best place to get the mats for the crafting Ishgard Restoration?

hoary storm

Either gather it yourself or buy from MB

If youre gonna gather it yourself you'll have to check the location on your gathering log

Its different for each mat

magic vapor
#

@rich bay nice to know. Thx

proper junco

tyy kaelwryn

hardy adder
#

Do I need a gatherer?

#

Like a botanist

twilit arch
#

you don't need to have a gatherer or crafter, if you're not interested in doing either of those things

#

but it'll make leveling your crafters easier since you won't need to spend money to get materials

#

and gathering can make alright gil

hardy adder
#

Omg... so I've been buying them off the MB for no reason?

#

can I gather these material with a lvl 1 gatherer though?

twilit arch
#

for restoration?

#

you'll have to level it up, but you can start gathering restoration materials at 10 iirc

#

but if you want to gather materials for like the lv40 recipe, you'd need a similar leveled botanist/miner to gather those materials

junior yacht
#

like anything else, it's mostly about how much time you're willing to invest in it

I was trying to level my weaver all the way

its from the 24man Nier Raid

marsh eagle

So, will I receive this item when I complete the raid? Is it 100%

twilit arch
#

no

#

its a chance to drop from two of the bosses

little swift
#

you just keep doing it until you get it to appear and you roll for it

#

keep in mind weekly loot lockouts are still in play

marsh eagle
#

Is the percentage written on this website? Or which boss?

lapis loom
#

it's random but it's guaranteed that 2 pieces drop per boss

twilit arch
lapis loom
#

also take in mind the male version and female versions look different

twilit arch
#

if you click on the treasure chest, it'll show you what can drop from what boss

green grail

just keep queueing for copied factory as a tank and pass all other loot, then need it when you see it

Hey, so, I've gotten up to the post release patches of Heavensward, and if I do any more MSQ I'm going to lose it.

Okay, but if I'm taking a break so I can come back to the exciting MSQ I'm just never going to come back.

slate arrow

you have all those 50/60 dungeons and trials

msq gates your content access, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot available for you

#

try some old EX trials

#

play another job

royal moon
#

Okay, yeah, I've done some of those and I really enjoy this game, but MSQ looming over me if I want to get further in is killing me.

little swift
#

games are meant to be fun, if you're not having fun then you should maybe take a step back and reevaluate how you want to play

#

i know msq is looming over your head, but you've got literal years of content to push through, no one says you have to do it in like a week

#

anyone would burn out

marsh eagle
#

I clicked the treasure chest icon and there are 14 items there. Does it mean that the chance for that item to drop is 1/14? I'm kind of confused about how this works.

slate arrow
#

that's every possible drop that can come from the chest

little swift
#

2/14 of those will always appear

slate arrow
#

when the chest is opened 2 of the 14 is randomly rolled to appear

#

you then roll on it like a piece of dungeon loot

#

there's always 3 chests per raid, 1 after each boss

marsh eagle
#

So, is it always 2/14 and nothing more or less?

slate arrow
#

yes

royal moon
#

I'm strongly considering getting a story skip potion at this point. I took a break before to get through ARR, and took another one a while ago to play with gathering/crafting, all of which is fine but the threat of having to grind MSQ at some point is awful.

twilit arch
#

4 chests, there's 4 bosses

slate arrow
#

(There's also a bonus chest at the end of the run, but that only contains bonus cosmetic gear, the 2b coffer and orchestrion rolls.)

amber ingot
#

what to spend wolf marks on ? Does it matter ? Whats all this gear?

twilit arch
#

doesn't matter, pvp gear is cosmetic

green grail
#

just glam gear, get whatever you like

slate arrow
#

wolf marks are mainly for cosmetic gear

hollow yacht
#

Wolf marks are for the pvp gear which is mostly used for cosmetics

slate arrow
#

you can buy gear with stats but they're all outclassed by poetic gear at their respective level

marsh eagle
#

Is there a restriction on rolling other than being on right role? Or is there such a restriction?

slate arrow
#

I think you can only obtain one gear piece per week from the raid still atm

#

not sure

little swift
#

you're restricted to earning 1 pieces of gear a week

hollow yacht
#

Right now you can only get one piece a week

little swift
#

no matter what job

green grail
#

buy a stormblood story skip then, though i'd reccomend finishing the HW post-patch at least till the end of 3.4, since it's important to shadowbringers msq which you can't boost through and is the best story out of all the expansions @royal moon

twilit arch
#

@royal moon then buy the skip but honestly, the msq is never going to go away. you're always going to have to do msq even at max level, tho it'll be spaced out a bit more

marsh eagle
#

Oh my... That means months for a single set. Thanks

green grail
#

and stormblood's kinda whatever, pretty filler

little swift
#

its 5 pieces

slate arrow
#

actually once 5.2 comes out the loot lock is unlocked

little swift
#

so 5 weeks

slate arrow
#

and 5.2 is only about 4 weeks out anyways

little swift
#

ye and then deepshadow becomes unlocked

slate arrow
#

*phantasmagoria

little swift
#

i'm speaking about the gear being available but yes you right too

#

the tomestone is that one

marsh eagle
#

Can I do the Limsa Lominsa questline if I completed Ul'dah?

slate arrow
#

short of making a new character no

twilit arch
#

the 1-15 quests? no you'd have to make a new character

royal moon
#

I'll be considerably more okay with it being spaced out. Just, oh cool I have to go through 2 more expansions before I'm done. I'm probably going to at least watch the cutscenes, I'm actually interested in the story, but go here now go here for another 40 hours isn't okay.

slate arrow
#

remember that the patches came out 3 months apart

#

so you're going through a lot in a short period of time

crude relic
#

I would advise against skipping SB since it really sets up ShB in the post 4.0 MSQs as well as possibly sets up possibly another xpac. ARR is the only MSQ I'd skip.

marsh eagle
#

Can you move your character to a congested world by paying?

royal moon
#

Okay, but do I actually need to play through SB to get that or is watching the cutscenes sufficient?

green grail
#

ehh the setup for 5.0 isn't thaat big

little swift
#

@marsh eagle no

#

its congested

green raft
#

if you have a retainer that's a class and it's above level 30 will the level reset to 30 when you upgrade the class to a job?

twilit arch
#

no

green raft
#

coolio

twilit arch
#

only time you need to reset your retainer is if you want to change from a job to a different one

crude relic
#

You underplay the end of SB Vis lol it's pretty significant to the overall story. And I would say play through the whole SB story cuz the SB big bad is still out there and is a threat. Plus SB is honestly pretty good IMO.

leaden ginkgo
#

SB delves into some topics near the end that are probably going to be relevant in 6.0

crude relic
#

As well as introduces in multiple way the big bad of 5.0 and his significance to the overall story going into 5.0.

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a way to change the title screen from shadowbringers to ARR?

crude relic
#

Not that I could find, I've been wanting to change it back to HW cuz I prefer the title screen music of HW xD

leaden ginkgo
#

The title screens should change based on the part you're in :/

scarlet arrow
#

that...should definitely be in a spoiler tag

#

nvm xD

crude relic
#

I was tempted to put spoiler tags but without character names it's vague as shit ๐Ÿ˜›

nope you can't swap title screens

I prefer Answers which plays at the beginning. Also what's the best method for soloing PotD? xD

scarlet arrow
#

I mean you can find them on youtube and play them every time you boot up the game if you want ๐Ÿ˜…

slate arrow
#

RDM for sheer damage output or PLD for survivability

crude relic
#

Mmk, so RDM cuz I don't like GLD and I don't have PLD unlocked xD

slate arrow
#

Main reason why for those two is self heal

#

Since they're not tied to any cooldowns

brazen hound
#

Trying to get a group together for The Navel Extreme. so far duty finder has had me waiting for 170 minutes

twilit arch
#

people don't queue up for extremes, especially not old ones like the ARR ones

#

best way of getting it done is to make a party finder group and do it unsync

brazen hound
#

I dunno were else to do so and my current FC is a bit small me an my friends run

patent cave
#

in the wondrous tails book, when the name of the instance is blank does that mean its any in that level bracket?

twilit arch
#

or solo it yourself if you're high enough

brazen hound
#

a party finder? but that doesnt give EXP

#

if its unrestricted

#

and i dont play MMO's to 'solo'

twilit arch
#

Extremes don't give that much ex anyway

#

so its not like you're really losing out on anything

patent cave
#

then dw about it for now

brazen hound
#

i will since its my quest objective

twilit arch
#

You'll finish the quest unsync

#

game doesn't care if you do the instance sync'd or not

brazen hound
#

how do i do a party finder?

twilit arch
#

should be under the social menu iirc to open the party finder

sick grove
#

does Praetorium only give out a crazy amount of xp if it's part of msq roulette or can you just q for it normally?

twilit arch
#

Only from msq roulette

crude relic
#

If you're doing an Ex Trial for XP you're gonna be disappointed with how much XP you actually get. Just saying.

It's under the Party tab. Just checked.

leaden ginkgo
#

I finally unlocked flying in the dravanian forelands and I wanted to make a party to do the dragonskin map I found. However, I've never done a map that wasn't 1 person only before so I don't know how I'm supposed to go about it (or what it will be like). Does everyone just roll on everything if we're successful? Will there be enough for everyone? If I use party finder will people be able to join even though I already deciphered the map?

#

I tried googling all of this but can't find any answers

wintry chasm
#

sometimes special items will show up on a loot roll table thing where people need greed or pass it but most of the stuff you get is randomly assorted. Also you can make a party so long as you do it BEFORE you dig up the chest

#

Generally the unspoken rule of maps is if it's that person's map and the loot table thing comes up for a material the owner of the map can need the item and everyone else will pass up on it

#

Or greed it

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok! That's really simple, Thank you!

obsidian patio
#

Everyone else still gets a decent amount of Gil from the treasure instance if it goes deep enough, so itโ€™s not entirely one-sided for the most part

wintry chasm

Yeah

leaden ginkgo
#

Do I need a full 8 man party?

obsidian patio
#

I think the last coffer on the last floor straight up gives 100k Gil

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh wow

obsidian patio
#

I recommend 3 people at minimum since you still have to sync for the HW/SB treasure instances

wintry chasm
#

Not really. Having a big party party is nice if you get a portal to one of the...whatever you call them but even then you don't really need all 8, maybe 5 or so.

Whats your question?

I am fairly new and my main character is lvl 30. I am interested in 2 character boosts for the following:

  1. I would like too boost a completely different job, to fill a role for teammates in dungeons etc
    2.The boost for my main's class to use AFTER I legitimately earn the class upgrade- but to jump to a higher level .
    I do NOT want to skip the main story,or dlcs
#

Is this possible?Pros/cons etc. I'd like someone to help guide my thoughts

ebon kindle
#

Just triple checking cause I'm not 100% confident in my results from googling, is the Swallowskin Tool Belt the highest belt for crafters?

twilit arch
#

Currently, yes @ebon kindle

ebon kindle
#

Sweet

obsidian patio
#

@fallen pollen
Yes. Job boosts do not effect the story at all and can be used even if youโ€™re already the job

sturdy mason
#

Ok as long as 100 is normal that's fine, just seemed too close to the minimum

#

I guess that's what the guide was saying: It's more time effective to do more turn ins than it is to get higher collectability for less turn ins?

twin flicker
#

hello everyone

twilit arch
#

for collectables, there's really no reason to fill the bar

#

so going for the bear minimum, especially when you don't have as much room to work with at low levels, is best

twin flicker
#

hi..i have a problem with password. i did Senix account to try FF,but now anytime i try to login keep say invalid password and im sure 100% i did correct

#

i alreay try 8 time with 2 different e-mail..is thise FF broken games?

tender estuary
#

@twin flicker can you login to your mog station account with that information?

twin flicker
#

i 1st download the game on steam, thend when was ready ask me to make Senix account and i did, make a id and password, but anytime i login say invalid password

sturdy mason
#

As I level my crafting jobs, when should I go back and catch up on the job side quest chain?

tender estuary
#

are you launching the game through the steam client

twin flicker
#

yes

sturdy mason
#

So far they don't seem too important. Mostly just get gear

tender estuary
#

you probably havent registered the game on mog station yet

twin flicker
#

sec show you

tender estuary
#
twilit arch
#

I would recommend keeping apace with them in general, tbh since at 65 you'll get manipulation from the class quest and its a very strong skill @sturdy mason

twin flicker
sturdy mason
#

Thanks @twilit arch . I've been hesitant to go back and do them since I'm leveling all 11 jobs and it's hard to keep up with all of them as it is

tender estuary

yeah but did you actually register your game with mog station

#

your square enix account isnt directly tied to mog station per say

twin flicker
#

mog station??

tender estuary
#

that thing on the left

twin flicker
#

let me see

tender estuary
#

says mog station

#

click it

#

login with your square enix id

#

you then need to register the steam game you just bought on there

twin flicker
#

ohh i understand now.. Ty for help @tender estuary

tender estuary
#

when you bought the game on steam it should've given you a CD key, you need to copy that into the mog station

#

yeah no problem

do it rn

raven sage
#

system configuration

#

It should be the first option

#

Note that it'll turn off music for all mounts you get though

balmy river
#

God, you're a lifesaver.

manic oasis
#

loool i had to change it too

#

i broke my monitor the last time i heard it

balmy river
#

I don't hate it, I actually love it. But having to listen to it everytime I mount will eventually make me hate it. And I absolutely don't want it

#

What's the best way to farm GC Seals at around lvl 50?

sharp cargo
#

Why are the queues for most raids so long except for the crystal tower ones?

obsidian patio
#

The binding coil isnโ€™t in any roulette

#

And itโ€™s basically savage-ish difficulty

sharp cargo
#

I meant alliance raids

junior yacht
#

@cold scarab roll on dungeon gear, turn it in

obsidian patio
#

People like to cheese their item level to get the crystal tower ones

#

Since theyโ€™re easier

junior yacht
#

if you have crafters and gatherers, do daily turn ins

sturdy canyon
#

A couple of reasons. Supposedly people intentionally remove gear to lower their ilvl so theyโ€™re ineligible for the other raids, but every time I get a CT thereโ€™s at least one new person. So itโ€™s most likely just a ton of people who have yet to unlock the other Alliance raids. Itโ€™s very common recommendation for new and returning players and itโ€™s not often suggested to unlock the other ones

sharp cargo
#

Ok so if i wanted to do stuff like the sb alliance raids, then im out of luck

junior yacht
#

well, no

#

you'd just queue for those raids specifically, instead of relying on the roulette

cold scarab
#

@junior yacht What do you mean turn it in?

sturdy canyon
#

Not at all, itโ€™ll just be a longer queue time. Make sure you queue up during your Data centers Prime time to try and decrease queue times

junior yacht
#

you can turn in green- and blue- rarity gear to a guy at your GC headquarters

#

i forget what the officer is called but you exchange unwatned gear for GC seals

sharp cargo
#

What would that prime time be for aether

junior yacht
#

evening

#

so, right now

#

it's an NA DC, so right now is when most people are home and playing

sharp cargo
#

Well, the average wait time for rabanastre is more than 30 minutes according to the game

junior yacht
#

it is indeed

#

but that's faster than hoping to get lucky

obsidian patio
#

What role are you?

sharp cargo
#

Tank

obsidian patio
#

Yeah thatโ€™s expected

#

Tanks get the longest queues for 24-mans because they only have 3 tanks in them

#

While it has 6 healers and 15 DPS

sharp cargo
#

Ok so for 24 man raids its better to not use a tank

crystal bluff
#

so once i get to heavensward i can use my poetics for level 60 gear?

fresh lodge
#

No

#

You need to reach Iydllshire first

crystal bluff
#

ah

sturdy canyon
#

If by better you mean shorter queue times, ya. On average. Every now and then the stars align and itโ€™ll be quicker for a tank, but generally speaking dps will have shorter queues for Alliance raids, followed by Healer and then Tanks at dead last

leaden ginkgo
#

can someone guide me on how to renew my sub?

#

Keep in mind I have no payment methods entered

cold scarab
#

Any other advice on where to farm GC seals at around lvl 50? I'm not high enough rank to turn in dungeon gear yet it seems

crude relic
#

Do fates in Mor Dhona or the Highlands areas.

obsidian patio
#

Do your grand company hunting log and complete fates near your level

delicate niche
#

more tech than in-game question. i use a DS4 on PC and want to use touchpad instead of share, but every time i open the game, it resets to the default binding, which uses share. anyone know how i might fix this? this is pretty annoying because the share button is quite out of the way, and to remap to touchpad i have to go through the entire rebinding process

leaden ginkgo
#

Guys I have 2 characters in adamantoise

#

I'm trying to renew my sub for entry

#

But it's not letting me is it because I have 2 characters in adamantoise?

junior yacht
#

i can't imagine why that would be an issue

leaden ginkgo
#

It is

raven sage
#

It wouldn't be

#

You would just lose access to the newer character

leaden ginkgo
#

Because it's allowing me to pay for standard but not entry

#

I just deleted my other character in game but it's still popping up on the website

raven sage
#

Then it's clearly something else

#

No idea what though

leaden ginkgo
#

It probably takes time for the website to process the character being deleted

raven sage
#

The character still isn't the problem

leaden ginkgo
#

I think it is because since both characters are under the same world (in the website), it means that this only qualifies for standard monthly renewal

#

So once the character I deleted is gone from the website it should allow me to pay for entry

#

Or so I hope

raven sage
#

I have 10 characters across 3 worlds

#

I have the option

#

It's something else

#

The mogstation would never force you to pay for the extra stuff you opted for if you no longer want to pay for them

leaden ginkgo
#

I get the option to pay for entry but when I proceed it doesn't allow me

raven sage
#

But what is it saying

leaden ginkgo
#

It doesn't say anything. When I choose to renew for entry, the page just reloads, as if you were to get a wrong password logging into a website.

#

But when I proceed with entry, it allows me to do it because it shows to characters under the same server.

raven sage
#

Do you still have any time active?

leaden ginkgo
#

Less than a day on the 30 day free trial

#

JET i saw u answer my question lollllllllllllllllllll

little swift
#

Are you using a certain browser? Chrome perhaps?

#

channy helppppppppp XD

little swift

leaden ginkgo

Some of it is disciple of war

brittle karma

reef quartz
#

Hey guys. Anyone know where the level 80 paladin Role quest is at? And what the name of that quest is?

leaden ginkgo
#

im lvl 46 atm

slate arrow
#

the only time you have to worry about auto attack is when you're a paladin below level 50 due to how gauge generation is tied to AA

little swift
#

/\

leaden ginkgo
#

ok ๐Ÿ™‚ ty guys!

slate arrow
#

otherwise, you should be wearing your relic gear you get from the level 45 quest

#

and HQ gear

junior yacht
#

the level 80 one starts where the level 78 one ends

slate arrow
#

namely HQ accessories

leaden ginkgo
#

oooooooooooooooooooooo is taht job quest

little swift
#

just replace whenever you can, hoping that you're not still wearing your brand new stuff at brayflox

leaden ginkgo
#

lol no

slate arrow
#

since the only ones you can get from the vendors are very low level

little swift
#

yes its a job quest

leaden ginkgo
#

oh..

little swift
#

the vendor stuff is better than nothing when you're at that level tbh

leaden ginkgo
#

Can I transfer servers for free right now?

slate arrow
#

๐Ÿ‘ please ๐Ÿ‘ do ๐Ÿ‘ your ๐Ÿ‘ job ๐Ÿ‘ quests ๐Ÿ‘

junior yacht
#

@reef quartz it's where the last one ended

leaden ginkgo
#

that helps a lot lmao

little swift
#

no free transfers not available right now

slate arrow
#

@leaden ginkgo from adamantoise no

leaden ginkgo
slate arrow
#

free is only from Congested to Preferred

leaden ginkgo
#

๐Ÿ˜„ ty channy n industrialz ^^

reef quartz
#

Idk where thatโ€™s at. Iโ€™ve been doing MSQโ€™s.

leaden ginkgo
#

Smfh

junior yacht
#

check your journal

reef quartz
#

Itโ€™s not in my journal

junior yacht
#

yes it is

little swift
#

are you talking about the tank role quest or the pally 80 capstone recap quest

slate arrow
#

it's under Disciple of War quests

#

there's like 8 different subsections

little swift
#

role quests are under role quests

slate arrow
#

Disciple Of War Role Quests

little swift
#

the pld job quest is whereever your job mentor is last

brittle karma
#

I got a question

junior yacht
#

we might have answers :V

brittle karma
#

I need some help I have a lv 73 min and I have things I havenโ€™t unlock yet like collectors glove and impulsive appraisal how do I unlock these thing plz help

little swift
#

||jenlyns is in chamber of rule in ul'dah||

junior yacht
#

that's job, not role

#

he was asking about role

little swift
#

mor dhona is where the collectables quest is

junior yacht
#

it's uh

#

Inscrutable Tastes?

little swift
#

iirc

brittle karma
#

Huh

reef quartz
#

Iโ€™m trying to do the quest the light of inspiration.

little swift
#

@reef quartz the role quest for 80 is in il mheg

#

is the nu mou residence

#

should i have marked that as a spoiler?

slate arrow
#

nah

junior yacht
#

which you would know if you checked your journal

brittle karma
#

But there lv 50

#

And Iโ€™m lv 70

slate arrow
#

yeah

little swift
#

collectables begin at 50

slate arrow
#

collectibles are unlocked at 50

junior yacht
#

it's a level 50 quest

jade quartz
#

Youโ€™ve been given the answer

reef quartz
#

Iโ€™m in Iโ€™l Mheg

junior yacht
#

so look at your map

brittle karma
#

Ok

jade quartz
#

Pla Enni, bluequest

little swift
#

its pla enni? i think thats the aetheryte

junior yacht
#

(check your journal, it tells you the name of the guy to look for)

little swift
#

its ||sul oul||

#

they're at the edge of the area

#

just before you leave the cave

brittle karma
#

I just want to know if I miss something that all

reef quartz
#

Ok Iโ€™ll take a pic of my journal and the map. I donโ€™t see anything thatโ€™s leading me anywhere.

brittle karma
#

Iโ€™ll look that name up

little swift
#

if they're not there you either haven't done up to there yet and need to start role quests

jade quartz
#

Youโ€™ve missed out on collectables all this time but itโ€™s not a biggie @brittle karma

little swift
#

or you accepted it and they're not there

jade quartz
#

Also weโ€™re having two different conversations at a time here

brittle karma
#

So itโ€™s not really needed the

#

The *

#

Then**

jade quartz
#

Sul Oul isnโ€™t to do with your issue.

#

No, you should unlock it

brittle karma
#

Ok thanks

jade quartz
#

Itโ€™s a key feature

reef quartz
#

I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve done current ones. I donโ€™t have a role quest option in my journal

little swift
#

then it begins in crystarium

junior yacht
#

๐Ÿคฆ

jade quartz
#

@reef quartz complete->class and job quests->role quests

junior yacht
#

if he doesn't even have the option he hasn't even started them

little swift
#

the game literally shows you role quests

slate arrow
#

go to the bar and do the bluequest that's not red

jade quartz
#

The game does give significant pop-ups telling you role quests are mandatory yes

junior yacht
#

literally during the tour of the Crystarium they're like "and here's where the role quests start. make sure you do them"

reef quartz
#

Jenlyn stopped giving me quests.

junior yacht
#

yeah

#

because that's not the role quests

little swift
#

because jenlyn is a job quest npc

#

and this isn't about your job its role specific

#

all tanks do the same one

reef quartz
#

I may not have done any role quests then.

junior yacht
#

yeah we gathered that

slate arrow
#

do you think jenlyn can literally cross the barrier between worlds lmao

#

(no.)

#

(which is why we have role quests instead)

reef quartz
#

Under class job I donโ€™t have a role quest option.

jade quartz
#

So go to the Crystarium tavern and pick up the quest โ€œThe Man With Too Many Scarsโ€ from Granson.

slate arrow
#

go to the crystarium

junior yacht
#

you have said that a few times now

jade quartz
#

And complete the questline.

slate arrow
#

and go to the bar near the markets

junior yacht
#

and we've told you what to do

slate arrow
#

those are you "job quests" for this expansion

obsidian patio
#

Role Quests are a separate category in the class/job section

reef quartz
#

Thanks for that pic. Cleared things up. However wow I have nothing under that tab. Lol

jade quartz
#

Go pick up the quest I mentioned

little swift
#

Means you gotta start from beginning

jade quartz
#

bluequest The Man With Too Many Scars, from Granson in the Wandering Stairs, the Crystarium

crude relic
#

On PotD floor 50 how do you not trigger the inta kill cuz we triggered that shit twice now and it's always after this one DRK fucking dies cuz he doesn't realize tanks have to do mechanics too.

jade quartz
#

Players failing mechanics lights up the runes on the floor

obsidian patio
#

Donโ€™t get hit by the aoes

slate arrow
#

just dont get hit

jade quartz
#

More runes lit up = more damage from her special attack.

#

If your tank is getting hit by AoEs then that is what is causing you to wipe.

crude relic
#

Mmk, so it's the DRKs fault >.> I've done the mechanics perfectly everytime and this DRK who's been in all my floor 50 attempts KEEPS DYING >.< the salt is in my veins now

jade quartz
#

Too many runes and her special attack (I canโ€™t recall the name) will wipe you.

reef quartz
#

Thanks for the info guys

leaden ginkgo
#

@raven sage you were right. Website only shows 1 character right now and I still can't get renew entry

little swift
#

It was never the problem

#

You would only have access to 1 of your characters

leaden ginkgo
#

Do you have an idea as to why I can't renew my sub through entry?

raven sage
#

Yeah I wish I could tell you what the exact issue is

#

I just know what it isn't

leaden ginkgo
#

I tried doing it on the ps4

raven sage
#

Maybe try clearing your cache or something?

leaden ginkgo
#

And it said that there was no need to renew a sub since it's still ongoing

raven sage
#

Yes it will say that

#

If it at least takes you through the payment method though it'll just charge you when it's time

#

The only time it adds the time immediately is if you use a game time card

#

or I guess have no time

leaden ginkgo
#

So what do I do now? I just wait until the sub is over?

#

And then try for entry?

raven sage
#

Did the ps4 give you a window that showed your payment method?

#

And does it say that you have a recurring payment on the mogstation?

leaden ginkgo
#

No

#

It didn't allow me to go through even standard on the ps4

#

Because it told me that my sub is still going

raven sage
#

Can you take a picture of the row that shows your remaining time and type of payment?

crude relic
#

If you just bought the game and have the free 30 days it gives you then I'm pretty sure you can't sub again till those first 30 days are up.

raven sage
#

That's not true at all

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah one sec

#

I'll screen record what's going on

crude relic
#

That's what others have said, and that's the only thing that would make sense for his issue is if the free 30 days that came with the game are still running and he can't change the sub until the free 30 days are over. Literally the only thing that makes sense with the info he's given us. Worse comes to worse Hyoh you'll need to contact SE and ask them what's up.

little swift
#

Are the free 30 days considered a standard sub?

raven sage
#

I'm trying to see if it's not letting them create a recurring payments

#

Which wouldn't be affected

leaden ginkgo
#

Can't send videos for some reason

crude relic
#

Yes, the free 30 days are for the standard sub. Atleast it was when I bought the game.

fresh lodge
#

@little swift yes

leaden ginkgo
raven sage
#

It;s set up

little swift
#

You can't swap then until its over

#

That's it

raven sage
#

Yeah

#

That's all I needed

#

You're good

leaden ginkgo
#

So basically just wait until sub is over then renew with entry?

little swift
#

Ye

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok

fresh lodge
#

That'll just resub at Standard though

raven sage
#

Cancel the sub first

fresh lodge
#

So make sure you cancel the subscription

leaden ginkgo
#

Also, what if I'm in the middle of a dungeon and the sub ends?

raven sage
#

it will kick you

little swift
#

Jusr dont be

leaden ginkgo
#

Man wtf square

little swift
#

You know when its ending

leaden ginkgo
#

Does the game give you the sub time remaining in hours?

raven sage
#

no

fresh lodge
#

No

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeo wtf ๐Ÿ˜‚

raven sage
#

Gotta be on top of it

leaden ginkgo
#

They're trying to scam me out an extra $2

raven sage
#

Not really

leaden ginkgo
#

They're pulling a fast one on me huh haha

crude relic
#

It's a test charge, just to see if the card will go through then that two dollars will be "refunded" basically.

leaden ginkgo
#

Ahh ok

#

I will unsub from the free 30

#

Does the next estimated service fees imply that they're gonna charge $12.99 when my free 30 days are over?

raven sage
#

yes

#

That's how your recurring payments will work

leaden ginkgo
#

So then I'm good

#

?

raven sage
#

As long as it's set up the way you want yes

leaden ginkgo
#

Set it to entry

raven sage
#

Then you can forget about it until you're ready to cancel or change something

leaden ginkgo
#
