Ah, I'm not sure bout that then.
you need to apply it to your account on mogstation @nocturne wadi
how ?
if you have ARR title screen then you don't have it added
I'll do the trials too then thanks Vis.
!faq mogstation
should be a pretty big button there when you log in
but when i bought the expansion from steam it didn't give me a code
its in the key section
yes in your steam library
right click on ffxiv in steam library and it should have an option to show product keys i think?
Have fun Mero!
How can I change the OST of my estate?
I got the Moogle jukebox from mog store, change the music but then it goes back
get an orchestrion and select any of the scrolls you unlocked
click it twice, first is preview, second is set
does new game+ give xp? thinking of using it as a way to level my other dps classes.. is that even a smart idea?
Wait, no
nope
It stops
It doesn’t
And the item is melodious mogchestrion
Choco, right click the track and play in estate.
oh how sad, thanks
Is all I get
play all
You’re in the playlist menu

I kind of hope they change NG+ at some point to give xp. Even if it's not the same amount you get on your initial run I feel like it should give something (plus it would provide an alternative path to leveling up alt jobs)
Is it possible to solo Shiva Extreme on RDM 70 full augmented Scaevan gear?
yeah
Yo guys, im transferring worlds , which one would you say is a good one(good people and population etc)
Rn im in Tiamat but transferring to a NA one
Eh casual with some raids yeah
savage is high-end raids
Aether has a lot of Twitch streamers who do savage, that's all I know
is there only a recipe of pudding in the entire game or are there some others under a synonym
i tried searching on the database but I only find one in the stormblood range
which kind of pudding
Is there a website where I can check if a certain piece of gear has shared model as any other?
garlandtools
yeah it looks like that's the only one that's actually called "pudding"
For meals with “pudding” in the name, there’s that one and a few from past seasonal events.
i'm not aware of any pudding synonyms, to be honest
There are plenty of deserts in the game though
Would you consider a creme brûlée a pudding? 
i think there might be some custards as well
One more question about 5.2:
Will the loot you get in the new normal raid have a weekly lockout?
As before, judging be the last expansions.
probably
yes, it will
every major patch since i started playing back in HW followed that method, with some minor variations
no reason to believe they'd change it now
And what about the trials? A few weeks ago someone said we will get two new trials with one of them extreme and normal, the other one normal.
Is that no longer likely? Because the preview only mentions that cinder thing.
and no, we're still getting two trials
the second one was said to a secret due to spoilers
think it's only one mode of the secret one tho
they usually play MSQ trials pretty close to the chest
yeah but they usually say there's an ex version of the secret msq trial
this was just ruby weapon hard, ex, and a mystery
For @slow crypt
thank you lyon :3
When a monster has a little yellow orange symbol they are a a rank mark?
depends
The symbols don’t really signify anything much
sometimes it just means they're stonger than other monsters in the area
Except a vague representation of strength
^
There aren't missable items right?
It’s level 80 and it called huracan
rank marks do tend to have bigger fancier symbols, but it's not a 1:1 thing
that is a mark, yes
Cause I want to reach end game and raid, but I'm only on like .. quest 3 of main story
And I dont want to do side quests, unless they're super worth?
How do I call it out?
The only missable items are from limited-time events such as holiday festivals.
side quests are mostly just a time-killer while waiting for queues
and/or do them because they tell fun stories
Oh, main story blitz it is then
unlock content or features and should be done
@tulip skiff /sh <t> <pos>
Blue quests?


blue background + plus sign
Yell or shout?
shout
And y’know the big plus sign
shout reaches the entire zone
What rank is huracan? A or S?
A
S ranks won’t go unnoticed by the server.
You’re unlikely to just run into them on your own.
So when I call it I do like this /sh <t> <pos> huracan
No
The <t> will say huracan
If you are targeting it
Literally exactly what Meara said
/sh <t> <pos>
<t> means target
Ah gotcha
Can you do multiple job quests simultaneously or do you have to finish one? Cause I'm doing the conjurer one but lancer/archer ones are also available
You’re not restricted
Wasnt sure if I picked up another job quest it'd cancel progress in the current one
Oh neat, might as well pick them all up
Why do people like hunting these A rank D rank mark so much? Do they drop anything special?
they drop:
Hunting seals (trade for items)
Tomestones
Money
Materia tokens
Also in the hunting linkshell I’m only suppose to call out S rank not A?
S and A
Not B
Wait what
Does your linkshell say no As?
I guess no one there is involved with train organisation then
It’s a cross world linkshell
Then call out both A and S
Ok I’ll call this one out
Is there a mail system? Or how can I help gear my alts on another server?
Cause crystal players xant interact with primal or aether right?
the mail system cannot go across data centers
moreover, most gear can't be mailed
is there crafting lvl boost in mog station?
nope, combat classes only
Aye looks like gonna have to commit
the game is designed around doing everything on a single character anyway
there's very little reason to create an alt for actual gameplay purposes

I have a question regarding buying the game on ps4
Ask away
Is the ver that in the saudi store the eu ver or the na one ?
I wanted to buy the starter edition from g2a
Do not recommend buying from g2a.
Im familiar with the site dw
pretty sure that's pc too
No its not
No it is
We’ve had people end up with bad codes from there before.
It literally had PC on the cover art
doesn't say ps4 anywhere 
Isnt the starter edtion a ps4 thing only ? @fresh lodge
No
@green grail i already do
I am on my free trail but trying to upgrade it
for ps4 or pc
Then you do not have the base game
lol enix took my money, I cannot register my game key and support has told me to try registering the key again later?
I need to buy ARR which is the base game
Mog Station is under maintenance now I believe
And the starter edtion has ARR in it
And you received a game code in exchange for your purchase.
which doesn't work
Follow the advice.
i;ve been trying to register it for days
Because mogstation is down for maintenance
It’s not a scam. 😔
for days?
Hold up
Don't buy from g2a @leaden ginkgo, pretty often they ban accounts that used the codes from there, becaise they are bought with stolen creditcards.
(And yes, even when you know it.)
The official store has it for $20/€20.
it's like saying your TV is broken because there's a power outage
Where did you buy it from?
The base game?
Where have you been attempting to enter the key?
rmemeber that time you try and register a key on steam and steam is down for maintenance ? me neither.
Were you previously in the free trial?
!faq steamkey
Yeah ur right its a pc copy lmao @green grail
im entering it on mogstation
mogstation isn;t under maint because it accepts and verifies the key
Sorry i lost few brain cells today
If it verifies the key then what’s the issue?
stop blindly defending them, they are useless
the issue is the form lands on a server error
We are not in the habit of blindly defending SE.
because their registration system was made in 1999 or something
What version of the game did you buy?
starter ed
Their web design leaves much to be desired, however it does function and these problems will be surpassable.
Were you previously on the free trial?
they told me to request a refund through steam lol
Take a screenshot of the error that appears
no, I couldn't get onto the free trial the launcher gave me an error too
When was this?
try a different browser or some free vpn, think it's a pretty common mystery error
google should be full of solutions
tried all 3 browsers, not using a VPN
Use Microsoft Edge if you can
If you were getting errors in the launcher as well you may have issues routing to the servers also
is it possible to get the valentione skirt still?
i'm assuming no but checking in case
The valentines event just started
You mean the one that just came out? Yeah you’ve got a few weeks to get it
ah no i mean
the older one i think
i haven't been playin very long so im not sure
That’s available on the Mog Station for real money
That’s the fate of all past event items.
If you weren’t there to get it as a free reward, it goes on sale one year later.
And stays indefinitely there.

hullo a quick question on playing ffxiv on steam. It says we will be provided a registration code or CD key upon purchase. Is this CD key or registration code linked to my STEAM account or to the square enix account?
meaning if i purchase ffxiv using my STEAM account, will i be able to play multiple ffxiv accounts without having to buy multiple copies of ffxiv?
any advice much appreciated
I'm not 100% sure in what exactly you're asking but if you buy from steam you'll get a key on Steam to put on Mogstation. Once that is done you'll have the game registered on your account. Now, if you mean "account" as actual accounts the answer is you would need to buy the game again for another account. If you mean "account" as in different characters you can have multiple on one account
ohhh so if lets say i have 2 accounts, 1 for me and 1 for my wife....i need to buy the game twice on STEAM?
well yeah, it's an MMO
That would be for the best. There is a way to have like, one account with two sub accounts but you'd need to buy the game again anyway. Keeping two completely separate accounts makes a lot less hassle
You also can't be logged into both at the same time iirc
Just make 2 separate steam and SE accounts and use those
alright tks for the heads up!
Which character is more busy, Samurai or Dragoon?
samurai
Is dragoon one of the less busier jobs then?
which pvp mode has the shortest queue times?
Less busy jobs in general? Nahhh, less busy in terms of melee DPS? Yeah
dps
Probably Feast training
^
thx
PvP imo alternates a bit between what's hot
dragoon is busy at times (particularly the life of the dragon window) and has a decent amount of ogcds but overall it has a very predictable and steady rotation
i can see that. i want to play feast ranked but i can see i'm late to the party. cant get a placement match.
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
If you want to get the mount you bought, you have to go to a delivery moogle in a city and pick it up
All mogstation purchases are given to you by the in-game mail
i go into it there is nothing
Did you actually unlock your chocobo in game?
no
Do you find yourself staring at your fat cat and dreaming of something greater? Something...fatter? Well, dream no more! This magnificent beast is so large, so wobbly, that both the earth and the very firmament tremble as it trundles. Whence did it come? Don't worry about it!...
i buy this one
You have to do that to use any mount
how can i got that quest
Read the faq command I sent above
ok
But uh, I'm still a bit confused by this code stuff. Buying that mount shouldn't have given you one. It should just go straight to the moogle mail
HERO,
You need a chocobo (mount) license in order to use mounts, see it as a driving license.
It will unlock the quest that gives it when you progress the MSQ. (It is after you join a grand company.)
Maybe this is easier to understand?
rip , i will do it later
How do I link my PC account to my ps4?
Just log in with your SE account

damn i think im actually going to have to call my CC and get them to chargeback enix
Do the battle themes change throughout patches and expansions?
The regular one is getting corny lol
yeah
Ok
dungeon bosses and world bosses
Get a friend to follow you as you tag them
wish theyd let you at least queue for potd,provide a set of spells for everyone
And they blow it up
fuck my 60rdm cant oneshot lv 50 even
ok ive got a REALLY dumb question
if a recipe requires 3 sacks of wheat, should i multiply by 4 (the amount to make one wheat) then divide by 3 to see how many wheat i need?
Can I get some cool looking paladin gear at lvl 50?
I'm about to finish 2.0 btw
I already got the armor in the lvl 50 quest
Correction. Cool looking weapons**
@lilac flume If the recipe takes 3 sacks of wheat and you need 4 wheat per sack then you need 12 wheat
You multiply the 4 by how many sacks
That's of course assuming it only makes one wheat sack
Usually they make 3 per craft
wait a sec, 4 wheat makes 3 sacks of wheat flower
so wouldnt i just multiply by 4?
So you may only need 4
You only multiply if you need more than whatever that craft makes
Is there a site that shows what gear you can wear at different levels. For example if you are about to reach lvl 20 carpenter and want to make gear for that level.
And you would multiply the 4 by how many times you need to craft it
yeah the recipe that requires the wheat flour requires 3 flour per craft, and the flour needs 4 wheat and gives 3
Ok so if you only need the 3 you're fine with the 4 wheat
support told me to wait another 24 hours for my key error
If you needed like 9 or 12 you would multiply by 3 or 4 since that's how many crafts it would take
I asked them if they would send me ff7:r collectors ed and I would pay them in 24 hours
they said no
weird.
so if i needed 71 wheat flour then i would need 71 x 4 wheat to make it
wait no 71 x 4 / 3
so thats uhhh
about 95 wheat
you got it
math is hard
im not the sharpest tool in the shed
use teamcraft and everything about crafting is soo much easier
im somewhere out in the yard

They’re both awesome though
WHM has better dps. Just sayin’

!faq housing
If I use /return and my party members are nearby, do they get a teleport offer?
As long as they’re in the same zone they should
Not 100% sure about return, only sure about teleport
so long as they can teleport there too Vie but also what Wynne said about being sure
@fossil basin Practically an expansion and the very start of another one
Hi, i'm searching someone i could give my recruitement code to for the recruit a friend option
I require 5 more gold feathers
You can use the recruit a friend subreddit or wait for someone to ask for a code here or in another channel
When you say raid do you mean the 8-man or 24-man?
Because if the 24-man you've missed literally nothing
do i NEED to do the savage Alexander raid in order to get the weapons and dyable gear?
For the dyeable versions, yes.
Does it matter which NA server I pick?
You've only been gone for a patch. You've missed some Ishgard restoration, the first 24-man raid, more MSQ, etc, etc. Patch 5.1 didn't really have a lot except some fairly big ninja changes and massive massive crafting/gathering changes. Next patch is sometime this month and it seems pretty juicy @fossil basin
@plush pebble I guess it's only worth saying Crystal is "unofficial RP"
You should also ideally go on a preferred server since they give double xp gains up to level 70 so long as your server is preferred or for 90 days, whatever happens last
The only way to free transfer is by going from a congested world to a preferred world
Twintania is preferred
As for how to look it up you have two options:
with this https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/
Or by doing a bot command here
!status Twintania
Does the market display all of the items you can make in the game?
🤔
After level 50, when my class quests starts again?
Like, furniture, rugs etc
final quest of ARR is level 50, first quest of HW is level 50 and it's every 2 levels to 60
when you start Heavensward
^
Is it after Ramuh or something?
@leaden ginkgo The only items you can make and not sell is things tied to content for crafting like job quests and custom deliveries IIRC so yes. That is to say all crafting items are on the marketboard but not all items on the marketboard are crafted
gosh darn it, now i need to wait, i forgot leve allowances were a thing
If you're doing crafting go do Ishgard restoration since you're out
I am newish, so all my guys are level 15
and I was trying to unlock the leves of each area so i can do the grind to 70 xD
but now RIP
can the male chars look cool late game?
does the partner also get the wedding chocobo mount if the other person bought the plaitnum wedding?
Just do grand company turn ins and continue with MSQ. MSQ will give nice systems for leveling and it's also just nice to pass the time for your allowances to get really high
@plush pebble ....Sure
Weird question
it's not weird!
so many mmos put 90% of dev time into the female chars
because $$$
@proper junco unless they get the platinum wedding plan too you can't get that wedding type
Can buy more than 1 apartment?
no
no you both have to buy the same plan
you can't do 1 expensive 1 cheap
you both have to buy the same plan
;c
does the divorce person still have the mount?
Does it matter when you use sharpcast in the opener as long as you get the thunder proc?
looks like a dragoon
It does
Why?
Sorry I was talking to Metafield
what does the female equiv look like for that set?
Admittedly the same except exposed midriff and a much lamer weapon drawn pose (pose in picture is not male weapon drawn pose)
oh yeah the female vers looks awful
yeah the female version of that has a hole in the chest plate for no apparent reason
Im a part of a discord where people sell houses/furniture, Is there one like that for glam?
it's super-dumb
no because glams get soulbound once you use them as a glam
I want a few items and was going to see if I could find someone with spares or a high enough crafter and pay them;;
houses are harder to "sell" since you need to do some FC trickery
For the most part I wouldn't say that gender changes gear outside of some job gear and other very special gear @plush pebble
furniture you have to do some tenant stuff but they're not "locked" after they've been placed
what race is he?
au ra
They look cool do i have them in the base game?
no
:<
comes with Heavensward
does the game over go on sale on steam?
rarely
I've heard it's less often that Non-Steam
crap
but you do get a free fantasia for doing the ARR MSQ so if you hold on to that you can switch once you buy the expansions
those are words
If you finish the base game story you get an item that let's you change race
ooo
fantasia is the item that lets you race/gender swap
that's awesome
Personally as someone who values being a race from the get go and investing in a character I'm not really sure I can't offer much advice because....I'm quite conflicted
hmm, since I'm level 40 and have not hit heavensword yet, and I become a DK, when I do become one, do I start at level 30? or from the level I'm currently at
ill play the base game till it dips again
30
dark knight starts a 30
aww shit
all expansion jobs start at 30, 50 and 60 respectively
is it hard for a new player?
The game?
what is hard
yeah
pfft no
like starting years after the game came out
not really
You might have to get used to the controls and systems
this is a FF game first and MMO second
But the game is designed to be solo friendly
and kinda easy to boot (for MSQ anyway)
wait do you even own the base game
yeah
aight just checking
the devs put an emphasis on making the majority of the game approachable for everyone and then making additional content specifically to provide a challenge
yeah this ain't like WoW
the only time old content gets removed is if it's seasonal or they're doing a revamp
they don't like removing content if they can help it
Well, it's certainly not FFXI
I think the last time they removed something in recent memory was Diadem and even then aren't they revamping it? Well when it comes to noncollab stuff that is.
and while the game's story will occasionally have you do 8-man content they make that content relatively easy to clear with even a modicum of competence
yes they're revamping diadem
again
and the only time they remove collab stuff is if it's seasonal
is the music in 14 done by Uemastsu ?
if they include a full on trial/dungeon it's not removed
no
ish
some of it is by uemastsu
but the vast majority is by soken
shire gear is bis for blue mage right?
The expansion themes (except the ShB one) is Uematsu and the old 1.0 tracks were by him too, some of which are reused here
but yes the rest are Soken
pretty sure blu BiS is a mix of alexander and shire
just like it was for everyone else back in 3.5
Uematsu is the main composer for most final fantasy games right? I'm not too knowledgeable about the composers SE uses in the rest of the series.

Uematsu hasn't been the lead composer since XI
uematsu has been a freelancer for quite some time now
most of the music comes from soken nowdays
*for XIV
he has contributed to all of them, but he stepped down from his leadership role a while ago
These two said
He did everything for XI and prior basically
but now he only really comes in and does game themes
like, the actual theme
in fact soken is the lead director for the music since Heavensward according to wikipedia
Ahh, I gotcha.
🤔 Interesting, I wonder what that means for ARR
they didn't do anything drastic with ARR
mostly recycled stuff from 1.0 if they could
I reassigned buttons and my character stops moving when I press ctrl + numpad
It goes ok for alt + numpad
How can I fix it?
so when I do switch to DK, what would I do to level myself up to the level my current class is at, since I'll be ahead in MSQ
roulettes > dungeons > deep dungeons
potd
?
they're the first tab in duty finder
it's the first tab on the duty finder
no
no
you can only get the bonus once per day
I wouldn't recommend guildhests honestly, compared to Roulettes and PotD the experience per hour is just not worth it in my opinion. Do it once for the daily bonus.
well do enough guildhests to fill out the challenge log
and do your other challenge log things
after you do the daily roulette
keep running the highest level dungeon you can
or go and do palace of the dead
until you catch up in msq
Fair enough, doing it in tandem with the challenge log would be good but Guildhests by themselves aren't worth it. After Roulettes I would spam Palace of the Dead or spam the highest level dungeon you can do that's not level 50.
ok
so at level 30 dark knight
I can do dungeons under 50?
or should I go according to level
I reassigned buttons and my character stops moving when I press ctrl + numpad
It goes ok for alt + numpad
How can I fix it?
According to level, do the roulette first though then either spam dungeons or get the quest The House that Death Built to unlock Palace of the Dead and spam that if you don't already have it unlocked that is.
Choco I would honestly check and see what your ctrl is bound to in the first place but I also wouldn't recommend using the numpad at all if it's causing movement issues. I can't do much more to help other than that though since I dont have my PC client installed atm to check if it'd be the same on my end.
Is it selfish for a BLM to not stack with the party?
You might also wanna ping some mentors in here and see if they have better info for you cuz I'm just going off the top of my head.
For a stack mechanic Reyes?
Yes
You should be stacking
especially once you've gotten Aetherial Manipulation, you don't really have much excuse for not stacking
I see I need to practice those movements
"should i participate in doing mechanics properly?" 🤔
It's better to stack with the group always to help soak damage. Some bosses do a stack then a buster iirc so not stacking could potentially screw the tank depending on how much damage and how many busters the boss does back to back.
hmm, maybe bc its just normal dungeons from shb, I didn't stack with the party, they didn't take much dmg, so I was meh why bother
When does the next patch come out? Is there a date already?
Oh ok
We'll get an official date on the 6th
The date is probably gonna be announced on Feb 6th during the Live Letter.
ok, gotta unlock challenge logs first
so do 1 roulette a day, then just repeat palace of the dead in conjunction with challenge logs (guildhests)
correct?
you do each roulette once per day
I only got 1
then you would do that one, yes
Yeah, until you unlock more roulettes. I would do the ARR Hard more Trial to unlock the Trial Roulette then do as many ARR dungeon unlock quests as possible to get the 50/60/70 Roulette and if you're done with ARR you should also have the MSQ Roulette. Those are the most common ones to do per day.
you'll get more roulettes as you progress
but yeah, do whatever roulettes you want to do once daily, then do PotD
You can unlock guildhest roulette right now if you wanted as well
By lvl 50 you should have 4 roulettes if you did most of the dungeon/trial unlock missions after hitting 50. Also go do your job quests and get Warrior unlocked. If you don't you'll regret not having your full ability kit.
Lvling alliance trial guildhest and msq is 5 roulettes unlocked
Do your class quests
Yeah, the job that Marauder unlocks is Warrior iirc.
You're doing yourself and others a disservice if you aren't because youre missing abilities
is class quests within MSQ or something totally different
just been spamming mSQ so far
No they're 
Something different. Go to Limsa Lominsa and do the quests found in the Marauder's Guild.
You remember where you started at as a marauder
Follow that chain
Until you catch up
Those give you abilities and stuff
Iirc you get tomahawk at 15 which helps you ranged pull mobs in the very first dungeon you get
Mhmm, right now your tanking as well as overall dps potential is snubbed to a high degree cuz you don't have the job unlocked as well as you don't even have your full Marauder toolkit to help in pulls.
Nah its a common mistake
pull as in dragging mobs into one place?
Ye or aggro them to you
got it
What Channy said.
ai got it
Nope, not doing the
quests really fucks you over in the long run regardless of if it's a job quest or a dungeon/trial/raid unlock that also unlocks a Roulette or even just an extra questchain that gives cosmetic stuff it really screws you because you miss out on a ton of XP and other stuff.
I would start with the job quests in the Marauder's Guild first to get your abilities caught up then do the rest of those kind of quests since most of the important ones unlock a dungeon prior to level 50.
does the world im on matter when looking for an FC?
why do you guys play this game
What do you do with blade of antiquity?
Yes, iirc you can only join an FC on your world.
@wintry chasm why do you think it's fun?
You exchange blades of antiquity in Eulmore for the Lightweight tomestone, needed to get a deepshadow weapon
in the recruitment channel i dont see FC's posting the world they're on, only the datacenter, is it easy to transfer?
Dunno about others but I play this game because I genuinely find it to be more entertaining than most other MMOs plus the Community is kind and friendly for the most part and FFXIV also has a way better story/class system than 90% of the other MMOs on the market.
Because it's got a classically good FF story, nice job identity, not a grindy MMO, and yeah
It's just a nice FF experience
It’ll cost money, but yeah.
You can grind if you want but you don't have to if you don't want to unlike 90% of the other MMOs in the Western market.
Which is what makes me love this game.
*Korean
WoW.....
Oh...right
neat
will i still be able to have old arr weap if i finish it? like say i want to use nevus after i finish zeta?
How much do I need for a Deepshadow weapon?
Honestly though Samuel if you ask 100 different people in here they'll all have seperate reasons for enjoying FFXIV. It's heavily subjective as far as questions go.
@fallen knoll most of them seem to be, are you maybe mixing up static recruitment/lfgs? Those only say the data center since you do content across the data center
@proper junco You can buy replicas for the previous stages when you get your zeta weapon
Just make sure not to throw away the weapon
@near depot 4 of the blades for the tomestone and 1000 phanta tomestones
Wow.
Yeah it's tomestone heavy
@wintry chasm ah i must be, im not sure what static is. thanks!
It's like, a group you do raids with and stuff
How long would you guys say it'll take me to go from level 61-70 via HoH since I've done all my Roulettes for the day x.x leveling DRG cuz I've come to love it even though I hated the basic LNC class :3
does GNB not have the primal-themed weapons with fancy particles when drawn?
Yeah, just one job.

Oh ok, text is small on mobile
That is neat, Wynne must be going for Mentor MVP by giving out resources like this 😛
does anyone have any tips on choosing a world?
I generally suggest a Preferred World for the bonus experience to make leveling much less grindy
You also get a one-time offer of 15 free days of subscription for hitting level 30 if you’re not on the trial
ah thank you! are there better choices based on where you are? (i.e. US west)
Where can I buy mats at cheap?
All the NA datacenters are in the same physical locations, so not really
@hardy adder if an item has a “shop selling price” listed then that means it can be bought from a vendor somewhere. If not then you’ll have to gather/craft it yourself or use the marketboard.
I see!
how is this door constantly open is it a glitch or is it stuck with props some how?

its cos of the housing npc
oh is it do they trigger doors
is it possible to save the password into the launcher? :S
There should be a button somewhere near where you enter your info
@obsidian patio thank you! i currently have a 34 PLD on behemoth, but in looking for FC i dont see very much, i was thinking of transferring or rerolling
Might just be PS4
^ tis
why am I downloading a 15gb patch after upgrading to complete edition? I want to play this game...
Im LVL 31 on my machinist, how do I get gear?
Did you upgrade from the free trial? That might be why.
you need to download all the audio for the MSQ, all the expansion zones, and some other stuff as well
@little crane you can buy level 30 vendor gear from the main city markets
The level 28-29 accessories should last until level 50
Unlock the level 80 content, which is in Eulmore, the Crystarium, along with Tomra for the 24-man
Oh then finish your Role Quests and then get your gear from Grenoldt
Does anybody know what the red wall is called? Or what combination of items is used to make it?
They feel like the plain white partitions, but I can’t identify the top part
is "Tricks and Stones" a + quest or normal yellow side quest?

I think so too, but I can't find the top part either
nope didn't do that quest line. That must be it. Is it worth doing it just for crafter gear?
Not really
The ffxivguild.com crafter guides say to unlock the beast tribe
For the daily experience most likely
The gear you can get from them (Adept’s/Trailblazer) can be bought for yellow scrips
^
It's basically free XP each day
And you do get nice rewards like a dance and a mount and whatnot
now if only I could actually craft a collectible for rowena to get yellow scrips
Can you do custom deliveries yet?
what level do i have to be to enter heavon on high
61

can someone explain how i get kinna daggers because i have the padjali weapon and 6 aetherpool grips but now im lost ;;
You need to have beaten floor 100 to unlock the ability to get the kinna weapons
oh fuck
I've been running recently into this error when I have the DirectX 11 support option on, anyone had a similar issue?
I just got an issue like that a second ago but not as extensive
I just tried logging in again and it worked
¯_(ツ)_/¯
are you not able to put the true blue coat in the dresser?
oh nvm i see the problem
Augmented Shire should last till 66 or so?
Before bardams mettle yoy should start swapping pieces out
64/65
Just short of 65ish
64 for HQ white gear, 65 dungeon (bardam's)
Just got the game last night hope I can catch on
nice, pick a class yet? I'm sure you got a bunch of questions.
Lost is where I am haha

Take your time to get your bearings and attune to every blue crystal thing you see
Or come across
especially in the cities.
oh wait, they're only in the cities nvm 
Although I guess the big blue crystals count to that
The big ones are important too
are there no midget race people in the new xpac?
also... is that what meol is made from?
Lalafells are the Dwarves in Kholusia
ah, ive just reached the point where we find the meol giving ladies
i was hoping meol was made from tartersauces
errr tatarus
||its sin eater's flesh|| (end shb spoiler)
Apparently according to yoshi-p, how it taste depends on the individual

❓
@obsidian patio Remember a while back I pointed out that music doesn't play
South of Camp Drybone, no music until 6AM in-game time hit then music played
either a bug or no music is supposed to play at night?
I wish music would play at night though
Yeah some zones are very quiet
ARR zone's music is pretty sparse
Or the music doesn’t loop right so there’s some awkward empty noise
it doesn't loop nearly as well as the expansion zones
where do i find map allowances?
you get them automatically over time
Duty > Timers
Its under Timers
right but how do i get them?
Naturally over time
it says my next one is avaliable
That means you’re able to gather a map now
are there specific nodes i need to gather from?
Any above 40 should do
Ok, guys I need some help with my apartment. I don't know how to hide the walls
Can anyone on Aether look at it?
You need to see it to know what I mean, trying to do 2 floors
Hello...I was wondering...with the phantasia bottle, it it JUST appearance as if I'm making my character from scratch?, or can I also edit features such as voice/name?
i can't seem to generate a stack of meditation. i just got the ability and read up on it but Iaijutsu and Meditation aren't doing it. is there a special trick or something?
I see...is voice a changeable feature in phantasia?
Yes
Thank you 🙂
@cedar pumice Are you lv 80?
no
The meditate skill simply increase your kenki
Bullies @@ no one wants to help with walls ..
ahhh, thanks man!
It's ok :c
anyone have any tips on getting in touch with a GM cause of a glitched MSQ ?
What's the glitched MSQ?
i got dced during heavensward credits, so now it tells me to beat thordan vii again but it never gives me credit
System > Support Desk > Contact Us > Report a Bug
Huh, that's a unique glitch o-o I usually skip the credits so I don't get shit like that but it's good to know that DCing during credits after the ending primal could potentially glitch the MSQ to high heaven XD
If they unglitch you and you have to do it again atleast it's an easy kill lmao
Ok, I fixed the wall but now I'm having trouble attaching the stairs because of that >_> if anyone has experience with that, please let me know ... or I'll call you "bullies" 🐹
🐷
for the disciple of hands... jobs? you can master them all right? like leatherwork, etc.
like classes?
Yes
Well, your issue is you don't want to attack the stairs generally 😛 also I've no experience with apartments or houses so I can't help lol
awesome, was unsure about committing to botanist first o3o
@crude relic generally?
But if it's an apartment instead of a house then you might not be able to put stairs in the room? And yeah generally, like there's always an exception to the rule......looks over to the pile of dead stairs in the hall but don't worry 'bout it ^.^
@frail jewel We don't say "you can be every job" without reason!
I don’t have any experience with housing glitches so I can’t say what the problem could be
😄
@crude relic oh, I actually made it work! Literally +2 rooms :3 that said I'm not sure if not Lala characters will be able to use them but hey... those will be private chambers!

@obsidian patio It's not really a problem, just trying to make it perfect UwU

Nice, just uhhh don't attack the stairs....somet of them are real nasty things 😛
At least its not a dread gazebo
Oh and don't open dusty books either, they might lazar beam you to death. Books can be just terrible creatures.
@crude relic have you been drinking some of that Lala ale? -_-
Nope, just some general tips for you. Oh and uhhh careful of the walls, they might try and eat you.
Don't make me be afraid of my own apartment -_-
Besides
Wait for it
I have my guardians
It's actually references to things in either other franchises or other FF games/trash mobs in certain places in game XD although the stairs comment might be a bit uhh well you know what I'll let you figure it out ^.^
Probably? I got no clue honestly but that sounds like it'd be close to the limit on that kind of area.
o-o I'm never visiting your apartment lest all the Moogles be butchered.
NANI
do you have to run the game through steam if you bought it on steam
can you use the launcher directly
Yes, the launcher is connected through steam iirc
It doesn't take enough resources to make a difference, though
So, nothing to worry about
You have to launch through steam if you bought on steam
I’m confused. How come my heals did not work on Alka Zolka in this quest mission?
I’m supposed to heal him, right?
Most heals should work on NPCs, yes
If it’s an AoE heal they generally don’t work on NPCs
AOEs won't because they only affect party members
SCH quest right? maybe you are supposed to Lustrate him
No I had him targetted. Took me forever to figure out how to target him though.
Yeah SCH quest. The one where you fight the tonberry for the first time
But then my heals didn’t do anything
I need to fix my targetting settings but that is a whole other story i guess.
when is 5.2 coming out?
No official date but the 18th is most likely
Increase ground mount speed
for that area only?
since flying speed is maxed out right from the start
yup and you cant fly in ARR zones
I guess I'll try to get enough for a lanner mount then
Hmm. I think I got it.
are the quests after castrum pret for msq relevant at all
or can i skip all dialogue to make this terrible shit go faster

2.1-2.3 are dull, yes, but it’s all ground work for things to come. Granted not all of it is that important. I’d say you can skip a majority of it up to the lead in to Leviathan.
how do i level dps if dungeon and potd queues are 15+ minutes?
potd is floors 1-10 and 51-60 i think
so keep resetting or get a group willing to bring you to 60
oh so its because im on floor 30 that i cant get a group
51-60 always
Not really 1-10
But yes because of that you don't see many people do things like floors 30 and so @languid kernel
So I'd just bear till you hit that 50 mark
alright thank you
Where can I search for people that are doing resurrection savage?
Party finder
Does anyone know how long it'll roughly take to max Ananta Reputation? (Beast Tribes)
All beast tribes take roughly two weeks to max rank.
Thank you o/

Can I get the Markworthy Sofa via trading if I haven't reached the DLC story yet?
I've read that it can be purchased for 10k gil but in a dlc area
I do have the dlc purchased, though.
But this particular item doesn't show up on the market
Markworthy Mogsofa is untradeable
er, dumb question, but weren't the ARR 24 mans supposed to give the mogtomes, or did that change?
least, I thought Syrcus was supposed to at least
It was changed to the HW ones for this set of tomes
so when I die, do I get to choose where I respawn at
Nope. You always respawn at your home point.
Although you can select which Aetheryte is your home point
?
my bad

Is coil of bahamut split throughout 2.1-2.4?
They were when released but now you can run them all in one straight shot if you want.
I just finished 2.0. Can I do them right now?
yeah
Sweet. How can I access the raid
Once you finish the x.0 main scenario you can do all the side content for that expansion
Unlock quest is in Waking Sands. Urianger has the unlock.
Thanks
Queueing for it directly is not advised however. PF is the effectively the only way to get in.
Ok
is it bad to use quick synthesis?
I have to make 12 bronze plates for quest, so Im considering using quick synthesis for it
for experience, yes
if you only need Normal Quality items that wouldn't give much experience it's pretty good
ok thanks
Keys are region locked
😫
But also the Steam key on Non-Steam account is a bigger one
i buy the game starter on steam
Take a screenshot of your mogstation home page
!faq mogstation
this one ?
You bought the Non Steam expansion and are trying to use it on your Steam account
That's strange...
i buy the game from steam

and
are usually flavour or worldbuilding
