but I already have one

#

AND the 30 day time

undone hedge
#

i trying to add subscription but i got the Error Code: i2501

fading nova
#

i just want to play but daaam

whole wasp
#

error 2501 is an error with money transaction. the most common cause is using VPN. the most common solution is to use mobile or tablet.

#

if those dont work, i have no idea. you gotta contact SE support since everybody's 2501 is different

#

Stormy, are those the free 30 days from the starter edition?

undone hedge
#

oki

fading nova
#

I bought the collector edition with ALL the dlcs, including the 2019 one

#

then created an account and entered the code

fading nova
#

and I got a 30day then I entered my credit card to set up the entry level stuff

#

not the regular sub bc I really only need 1 toon and that's a bit cheaper

#

now I'm installing the game but I had to find the download through google

whole wasp
#

you bought it from website? or from steam?

fading nova
#

i tought I could download it through Mog station

#

no it's not from steam

#

it's the EU website collector

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a way to get materia gems apart from disenchanting a spiritbonded item?

whole wasp
#

ok. from what i recall, you cant buy sub time while your account is on the free 30 day. You can add sub time after your free 30 days run out.

fading nova
#

ah okey. even tho I added the card so it should buy the time automatically after the free 30 day and the "finish your account" message is still there?

whole wasp
#

Yes star, from marketboards, lvl 80 dungeons. adventurer in need bonus, raids, roulettes, trading with scrips for DoH/DoL etc etc

fading nova
#

and they took 1€ from my card too

leaden ginkgo
#

okay i thought maybe I could mine them, guess not

#

thank you (:

fading nova
#

great now the launcher is doing funny stuff

#

it says it's unable to download patch files

sleek mirage
#

Hunts is probably easiest for materia

undone hedge
#

is there anyway to check the support ticket i have sent?

jade quartz
#

No, you’ll get a notification next to where moogle mail usually appears when you receive a response

undone hedge
#

ah ok

fading nova
#

erm this is strange too, it downloads only with 1mb/s when I can download ~7mb/s normally

undone hedge
#

they will respond to my email or i have to check form the support website?

jade quartz
#

Oh not ingame support

#

Never mind

#

I’m not sure.

wise inlet
#

Grand Company FAQ
Info

'Which Grand Company should I choose?'

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you chose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here are two links leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies

Lieutenant
Elite

'How do I get Grand Company Seals?'

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in for more seals.

wintry chasm
#

Pretty sure the support doesn't work weekends at all

#

I can't think of any way to contact them

bitter plaza
#

grand company matters only slightly

#

once you hit a certain rank in the one you chose, you can switch

#

it used to matter a lot for PvP but now you can freelance and just join any team

midnight thistle
#

I can switch my job at level 10 right? What happens if I do it? Will I get teleported to the region of the other job or what?

bitter plaza
#

nope

wintry chasm
#

When you hit level 10

bitter plaza
#

you have to visit the guild

wintry chasm
#

and do your level 10 class quest

#

but yes then you can go to all the guilds and unlock all the other classes

midnight thistle
#

ohh

wintry chasm
#

and then all you have to do is swap weapon to swap class

midnight thistle
#

Will I get a weapon when I visit the other guild or do I have to buy it?

wise inlet
#

is there a way to unlink my ff14 purchase from steam and rebuy it again there?

wintry chasm
#

You get a level 1 weapon yes

midnight thistle
#

ah oke, thanks ^^

#

And after that I can just return to my zone and continue with story and stuff?

wintry chasm
#

I...don't really get the question Rince. You want to...remove your Steam Licence and rebuy?

wise inlet
#

yes because I am locked out of my account I just want to play the weekend so I want to buy the game again and start playing

wintry chasm
#

@midnight thistle all the classes level separately so if you want to unlock another class and do main story on that new class you'd need to level it up to where you can

#

Other than that sure

#

That's not going to do anything though Rince

wise inlet
#

why not? I will buy the game again to register a new account because I am locked out of my old one

wintry chasm
#

registering a new account would mean starting from square one

#

just wait till Monday

wise inlet
#

I know but at the moment I can't wait so I am looking if there is a way to repurchase the game again on steam and register new account

#

any idea if that is possible

wintry chasm
#

On Steam? I'm not sure

#

On Non-Steam sure

#

for real though what could you possibly do that demands you to play on the weekend?

wise inlet
#

ah okay thanks

#

well i have few days to relax and wont be able to play again in a very long time so I really needed some way to either play with my old acc or start a new one but it seems like I cant contact support over the weekend

wintry chasm
#

I actually have a question with PC version of the game myself

#

I want to port my UI and hotbar settings and all that stuff from one character to another character

rich bay
#

@wintry chasm

That is not really hard to do: all the settings are in a CHARxxxxxxxxx folder in the %userprofile%/Documents game folder, the only thing you need to know is which folder is for which character. (Look at the modify date, the game will change that date once you login with the character.)

Simply copy and paste to the contents of the folder to the folder of the other character does the trick.

wintry chasm
#

Oh in documents?

#

Ew

#

Thanks

#

I was struggling to find where the hell those were kept

#

Wait

#

If i have a character

#

No never mind

rich bay
#

Yes, it is kept there.
There is also the %localappdata% folder where some game settings are kept, but there are the main client settings stored.

wintry chasm
#

Okay okay

#

Here is my issue

#

I've logged into two characters today

#

The ones I want to transfer one to the other

rich bay
#

In the folder itself you can see it.
(There is one file there that is kept updated by the game.)

#

When you change one character setting, the date changes.

#

The COMMON.DAT file date changes when you login to a character in the character folder.

#

@wintry chasm this

wintry chasm
#

I can rename these folders safely right?

rich bay
#

No, just copy paste.
If you rename the folders, the game will tell the settings were lost and need to be build up again.

You can copy-paste between them.

You said you want to transfer the UI settings right?

sleek peak
#

In what place i can find the weapon / armor dealers in gridania?

whole wasp
#

they are in old gridania

#

nearest aethernet is leatherworkers guild then walk up abit

#

or you can walk there from the main aetheryte

thin pine
#

how long does road to 70 last?

rich bay
#

@wintry chasm,

If you want to transfer the Hotbar and UI settings, you can copy-paste the UISAVE.DAT and the HOTBAR.DAT files from the original character folder to the character folder you want to transfer it to.

wintry chasm
#

Okay

#

I just thought renaming this would make it hell of a lot easier lol

#

Hard to keep track of folders when I have 12

brave notch
#

What happened to my game? whenever I click the shortcut it says "this app cannot be played on this PC" and when I search for the file location I get this

whole wasp
#

@thin pine 90 days after you create your character. it dissapears when you hit level 71 on a a job obviously but switching job to one lower than 70 has it come back.

#

another way is if the server loses preferred status.

thin pine
#

ok idk why but my friend told me it lasted 150 hours but i wasnt sure if that was true

rich bay
#

That is not the correct folder. @brave notch

I think you need to try to install it again, did you installed it via Steam? You need to start the game then via steam.

jade quartz
#

It lasts 90 days from character creation or until the server loses preferred status—whichever comes last.

wintry chasm
#

^

thin pine
#

ok thank you

wintry chasm
#

Usually 90 days comes last from my experience

brave notch
#

No I didn't I installed it from the website.

#

Everything was working fine until today

whole wasp
#

yup. sorry if it was not clear. listen to lyon

jade quartz
#

Yeah, it’s not often a server stays preferred for longer than one patch period which is usually 100–110 days ish

fresh lodge
#

It should be under C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn

rich bay
#

Yes, that is the correct folder.

brave notch
#

I have my own custom filepath under D:\games but for some reason it's been deleted, all of it

#

Nothing in recycle bin either

#

all my steam games too

rich bay
#

@brave notch

Also check this folder: %userprofile%\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn

brave notch
rich bay
#

%userprofile% is the C:\users\(yourusername) folder in windows.

brave notch
#

It's as if every .exe file has been purged

rich bay
#

You need to remove the game and reinstall it, maybe that will do the trick.

If the FF14 folder in my documents does exist your installation is corrupted.

@tender estuary need to help too now i think.

brave notch
#

That'd fix ffxiv probably but I'd rather get to the bottom of why every
game is like this

sleek peak
#

@jade quartz I remember a year ago my friend made a character on Lich and i bought the game a day after and on my end i had Zodiark as preffered server. Yet he still had his bonuses with bonus experience til he got max level. Did they change it then?

rich bay
#

The folder the game downloads it's patch files before installation is in the %userprofile%\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\downloads folder.

I think you found it already @brave notch ?

whole wasp
#

other than road to 60 becoming road to 70. i dont recall they ever changing anything about the buff.

sleek peak
#

Also i still didnt manage to find the armor/weapon dealer in gridania :C

brave notch
#

Yea but theres only patchfiles, the update.exe doesn't work.

whole wasp
rich bay
#

You need to reinstall the game @brave notch most likely. Uninstall the game and redownload it.

And @tender estuary where are you? We need you! duckling

jaunty matrix
#

does unsynced instances scale

whole wasp
#

nope, they stay at whatever level it was previously

#

Hank might still be asleep. late saturday

jaunty matrix
#

uh like according to player count

whole wasp
#

prob still sick :<

wintry chasm
#

@rich bay The log folder is quite literally the recent chat logs right?

whole wasp
#

the only instance that scales to player count that i know of is eureka and you cant unsync those so, no player count doesnt affect syncing.

jaunty matrix
#

okay ty

#

ran levi couple of times felt like it took longer with 3 ppl than 2

brave notch
#

Ill just reinstall windows

#

fuck this

rich bay
#

@wintry chasm, i think so yes. Not sure.

gritty oracle
#

Where's the mount quest in Gridania? First time choosing the twin adders.

wintry chasm
#

In the HQ

#

It's always in the grand company HQ

gritty oracle
#

Ah, I assume I can only pick it up after I'm formally inducted.

wintry chasm
#

No point picking it up till you get the seals from completing the Grand company starting bit anyway

sleek peak
#

Thanks

whole wasp
#

you found it? nice!

sterile ore
#

hello, anyone using ghub here?

whole wasp
#

github?

sterile ore
#

logitech g hub

#

im trying to configure macro for ff specific

whole wasp
#

oh... i use a $5 mouse

sterile ore
#

but i need to add to game to the hub, i dunno ff application

#

any one know which .exe file i should add?

sinful nymph
#

So whats the difference between Powerful and precision hookset?

rich bay
#

@sterile ore

The .exe that starts the game itself and you need to add is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\game\ffxiv_dx11.exe

#

(Assuming you use the DirectX 11 default setting, like 95% does.)

#

@sinful nymph

Powerful is for medium tugs and large ones. (Large fish)

Precision is for the small tugs. (Tiny fish)

jade quartz
#

Small-tug fish require precision hookset; medium- and large-tug fish require powerful hookset.

#

Using the wrong hookset will have no effect, i.e. you’ll be eating the low catch chance debuff from using Patience.

sinful nymph
#

How do I tell what tugs are which at a quick glance?

jade quartz
#

Heavy is easy, it looks and sounds like your rod is going to snap in two.

#

Small and medium are hard to tell apart, you’ll probably mistake one for the other a bit until you get practiced

#

Small is a little double-twitch

#

Medium is one more sustained tug and then a wobble

#

A certain fish will always have a certain tug.

#

So if you’re only going for a certain fish and you know which tug it has, you can ignore all other rugs and save your hookset GP

#

(Just use default catch on them I mean)

grim tangle
#

Is it worth keeping any of the random materials I've gathered through the MSQ's?

#

Or should I just sell them all and make room?

sterile ore
#

thank you

rich bay
#

5.2 will have a change in that @sinful nymph , they are adding a visual notification when you catch something. (With ! marks)

Maybe it is easier to wait until 5.2 on Feb 18?

whole wasp
#

you can keep the materia and maybe the glamour dispeller. you can sell the rest of them

grim tangle
#

okay, thank you!

sleek peak
#

Where do i show the Chocobo Issunance ? Im in flame thing.

whole wasp
#

show it to the chocobokeeper. in Uldah, its directly across the adventurer's guild aethernet, next to the gate out of the city.

sleek peak
#

Thank you very much

#

Wait, i cant show it to him?

grim tangle
#

What are materia's for? Crafting armour / weapons?

hot eagle
#

more secondary stats, like crit, direct hit, spell/skilspeed

whole wasp
#

im pretty sure you show it to mimigun, bongus. are you on the my little chocobo quest?

rich bay
jade quartz
#

They’re gems that slot into your equipment and give stat bonuses.

grim tangle
#

;o

#

is it only specific gear though

jade quartz
#

Any gear with materia slots.

#

Which is most gear.

grim tangle
#

how do you tell if it has a materia slot

hot eagle
#

only usefull at lvl80 before 80 its not rly needed

jade quartz
#

It’s not something you really need to bother worrying about until max level.

grim tangle
#

good to know, thank you ❤️

#

i'll keep collecting them

rich bay
#

@sleek peak, you need to buy a Flame Chocobo Issuance first at your GC.

jade quartz
grim tangle
#

OH

#

ty!

#

@rich bay I did

#

Nvm the FAQ here is a bit misleading

#

Get dark knight to 60

fresh lodge
#

Its the level 60 DRK Artefact Armour

leaden ginkgo
#

Sweet

sterile ore
#

damn now i feel regret choosing paladin

whole wasp
#

just play DRK too

#

you start DRK at level 30 btw

jade quartz
#

You can play everything

#

Don’t have to choose

sterile ore
#

im still lvling my gladiator, still lvl 20 tho

wintry chasm
#

Well you can't regret being paladin

#

since you can't even be DRK till you get to Heavensward

sterile ore
#

yeah my only hope goign for paladin now is that people say hes a good tank

jade quartz
#

All tanks are good

sterile ore
#

but no damage

jade quartz
#

Damage is fine

#

Paladin has like the second-highest damage among tanks potentially I think at the moment?

stray saffron
#

paladin is second out of 4 in damage, yeah

jade quartz
#

But the balance differences were quibble over are very minor compared to other MMOs on the market

#

Generally jobs are well-balanced

#

And everything is viable.

smoky lintel
#

So I did a few Fates in Il Meg and I get this:
'Your efforts have restored some small measure of stability to Il Mheg.'

What does that mean?

jade quartz
#

You’ve ranked up in shared FATEs for the zone

#

And unlocked the bicolour gemstone vendor in Lydha Lran.

#

You can buy a riding map there now

#

You can check your progress on this in each zone under Travel -> Shared FATE

#

Six FATEs to unlock the first tier of a shop

#

Sixty more to unlock the higher tier with some unique rewards like minions, more orchestrion rolls

#

A barding or two

#

And reaching the higher rank in all six zones unlocks additional vendors in Eulmore and the Crystarium.

smoky lintel
#

This is interesting to take note of.

#

What are some of the things people usually go for on those?

jade quartz
#

Getting everything isn’t difficult.

#

You’ll have ample bicolour gemstones accrued from all the FATEs needed to rank up that much.

leaden ginkgo
#

So, you young marvelous beautiful people

#

I have a question

#

I've been playing quests with 7 more people

#

How am I supposed to know who is the the healer and the dps?

jade quartz
#

Healers have green icons, DPS red

split agate
#

and tanks blue

leaden ginkgo
#

Thank you!

wintry chasm
#

Also each job has a separate icon in that thing

leaden ginkgo
#

This will make this run easier

jade quartz
#

They’re under “tattoos”

#

And male-only

leaden ginkgo
#

im about to feel real stupid if they've been there this whole time.

#

under tattoos theres only two choices. i've been wondering for the longest time where people get those marks that they have on their cheeks from.

whole wasp
raven sage
#

They could be a clan specific tattoo

jade quartz
#

One of the faces may not have them

raven sage
#

or face yeah

tender estuary
#

@brave notch are you running 32 bit windows

jade quartz
#

Yeah, female cats have that baked into one of the face types, not editable

tender estuary
#

Woah that’s a smug cat good evening smug

whole wasp
#

Good Morning Hank

brave notch
#

@tender estuary nah, 64. but I reinstalled windows all together, hopefully I'm good now

#

Oh okay, sorry for late response just woke up

#

Good luck to ya

#

That’s not a real orchestrion roll

alpine shadow
#

damn

#

Where is the vendor for the 70 cap equivalent of Ironworks and Shire?

#

Or you’ve taken a picture of the wrong element?

alpine shadow
#

wrong element?

jade quartz
#

Rhalgr’s Reach

#

Wrong thing on the screen

alpine shadow
#

dunno

raven sage
#

Yeah that's not the orchestrion

jade quartz
#

But there is no orchestrion track that’s called “Where to Find”

#

Everything in the list has a "where to find" section

FFXIV steam version notices
Info
  1. Steam launcher integration update
  2. Steam and windows expansions are not interchangeable, buy the expansions for your base platform
  3. Use SteamEdit to remove -issteam argument to play with your windows subscription via steam
  4. You do not need to uninstall ffxiv if you have either the steam or windows version when you want to swap.
whole wasp
#

wait...

#

im wrong oops

jade quartz
#

No

#

You cannot

#

That faq is for the other way around

alpine shadow
#

ah right

whole wasp
#

Any other method of direct startup will no longer be available.

alpine shadow
#

well

whole wasp
#

wait, i was right...

alpine shadow
#

but you probably can

#

by adding -issteam

#

when launching it normally

jade quartz
#

Maybe yoshiglasses

alpine shadow
#

then you can login with steam account without via steam

jade quartz
#

I’m not sure

alpine shadow
#

still, the last part of the faq does say so

#

you dont need to uninstall

#

you can just create a shortcut of the .exe file, and it will run as you arent running via steam

i gotta get that. how do u upgrade it via eureka?

jade quartz
#

Eureka is level 70 instanced content. You’ll have to grind up some anemos crystals and protean crystals by doing FATEs inside the instanced area, then trade them with a vendor to upgrade the gear.

any way to increase the download speed above 1mb/s? it's stuck there for me, but i could download with 7mb/s everywhere else

#

So If i buy Shadowbringers Complete Edition Mog Station Key it wont be a problem activating Trial Account with it? It says it is ARR+Hs+SB+ShB +30 Days

wintry chasm
#

That's be fine

#

That's all you would need for going from trial to having everything

#

For the sake of clarity I'd call that the complete edition and not Shadowbringers complete editon since...yeah

hot eagle
#

so long it wasn't a steam trial account all should work

sleek peak
#

Will i have to download the game again though?

#

Afaik the Trial launcher only works for trial accounts?

#

And no i got the trial from the FFXIV site not steam

hot eagle
#

will probably download another 20gb of data after u upgraded your account

#

after that attacker. tank is not very useful since your chocobo will never be able to steal aggro from you unless you take 3 minutes to kill a mob

twilit arch
#

exp wise, just keep it out with you while you're leveling

whole wasp
#

there is a useful stun in early tank tree so whether you want it is up to you

twilit arch
#

there's no real fast way to level it. however if you have access to a stable (via fc/personal house or apartment you can train it every hour

And attacker?

#

Is it useful to level that after obtaining choco cure

twilit arch
#

its up to you, chocobo is a decent healer/dps

#

You can eventually get all skills, but that's fairly expensive

tidal dome
#

I've got a question about Wildfire. Do the attacks from the Automata Queen count towards the potency increase or is just my weaponskill abilities?

twilit arch

just your weaponskills

Aight cool. Thanks

#

(Asking for a friend) can you get ARR from buying an expansion instead of buying ARR then that said expansion ?

sterile ore
#

what do i get for being lvl 20 paladin? i kinda miss the headline

twilit arch
#

The only way to get ARR is by buying either the starter edition or the complete edition. Expansions themselves do not contain ARR @leaden ginkgo

untold ermine
#

Trying to adjust my UI to a much smaller tv, and some if my hud elements are off the screen. Any way to shrink the entire UI at once so that it fits on the screen?

#

Or do I have to move each element individually

Also can anyone invite me to the hunt discord?

morning, all! is being a healer viable on ps4 controller? like how do i target party members?

To target party

@untold ermine You can go to system configuration, and then search for UI size, so you can change all at once

Hello. Can anybody plz tell me what is the name of the Weapon and the Gauntlets are and where to find them or are they a mod? Thank you.

dry glade
#

so, um, is there a way to glitch housing stuff sideways after it is at the correct height?

#

I'm trying to move a table that doesn't attach to a shelf.

twilit arch
#

@faint gate not sure on the weapon but the gloves are gauntlets of the behemoth king dyed gold(or some yellow dye) it looks like

#

they're bought from pvp

#

oh the weapon looks like its Skeggiold from the Aery dungeon (lvl55)

narrow ether
#

I made the horrible decision to do Animus Books. Is there a trick to spawning the "Taken" FATE in Southern Thanalan besides waiting? If not, that's fine. I just wanna make sure I'm doing all I can.

twilit arch
#

you can try and clear out the other fates to get it to spawn

#

since there can only be so many fates up at a time

#

but other than that, nothing else you can do

narrow ether
#

kk, wasn't 100% sure that'd work, but I'll do that. Thanks!

you spend FC credits to purchase the actions

Can I create a macro that executes multiple macros?

#

Teamcraft requires 2 buttons for longer rotations

fresh lodge
#

No

sturdy mason
#

So I have to click 2 times then?

#

I can't just do a continuous rotation

#

You have to press 2 different macros

sturdy mason

Thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

why do the shop mounts walk at different speeds :/

fresh lodge
#

Every mount moves at the same speed

patent pendant
#

Their sizes make it feel slow/fast

fresh lodge
#

Though the Cloud bike has the speed boost from the MSQ built in

leaden ginkgo
#

I bought the red hare from the shop and my friend bough the Sleipnir

#

when we walk on them, his walks MUCH slower

twilit arch
#

probably because he doesn't have the first tier of movement speed

#

which you get from the main scenario quest

patent pendant
#

Wait

#

Walk or run?

leaden ginkgo
#

We do because his chocobo walks at the same speed

twilit arch
#

has nothing to do with the mounts themselves (outside of sds fenrir)

leaden ginkgo
#

Its the shop mount thats the issue

twilit arch
#

no

#

red hare moves at the same speed as all other mounts

leaden ginkgo
#

His choco walks at the same speed as my red hare
but his Sleipnir doesn't

fresh lodge
#

Though the Cloud bike has the speed boost from the MSQ built in

#

You probably don't have the MSQ speed boost, which the Bike gets automatically

twilit arch
#

All mounts move at the same speed, flatout., with one exception and that is the sds fenrir

leaden ginkgo
#

sec let me make a gif

#

his choco walks the same speed but shop mount doesn't

patent pendant
#

Idk about walking but normal running speed are the same for all mounts

patent pendant
#

I need clarification on “walk” there

leaden ginkgo
#

See? the shop mount is walking so much slower

fresh lodge
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#

Are they using a controller?

leaden ginkgo
#

No we're both on PC

twilit arch
#

where are you on the main scenario quest

#

vs him

leaden ginkgo
#

We are both of Slyph

broken sail
#

Also maps give mount speed

leaden ginkgo
#

and his choco walks the same speed as my red hare, it's just this shop mount

next sun
#

is it ok to ask about reshade/gshade in here?

raw solstice
#

you have walk toggled on in this clip, which would slow your regular speed

fresh lodge
#

@next sun yes

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes we want to RP walk together

#

the issue is the walk speed

next sun
#

thanks, i was wondering if anyone using gshade or espresso glow specifically has a notification at the top that wont go away

leaden ginkgo
next sun
#

says to update but seems like people say that removes all your settings

fresh lodge
#

It'll give you the option to back up and convert your presets

#

So just save all your options before updating

leaden ginkgo
#

how doable is dancer on controller with all main skills? is there too many buttons for it? is it fun ? how mobile? etc. anything to know? will be my second class (only want two : warrior/dancer) if that matters

scarlet carbon
#

Does reporting hackers in this game work or is it a fight against windmills?

wintry chasm
#

Well first off controller doesn't hinder anything Kathy. Pretty mobile, fun? I like the idea but I'm not too much of a fan of how proc heavy it is

#

Bard is quite proc heavy too but I like that one, just something about how Dancer handles it tbh

leaden ginkgo
#

ah ok^^ ty , that eases my thoughts on it and whats that mean proc heavy? like u rely on certain skills?

wintry chasm
#

procs are like

long onyx
#

hi, I am planning to be a new player, where should I buy the game if I want the cheapest, and what is that 30 days time card

wintry chasm
#

Say you have a skill, using that skill procs another skill (allowing you to use that other skill) but it's kinda % chanced

#

so with dancer you can kinda end up doing a 1-2 combo and just wait for procs to happen so you can use other skills

leaden ginkgo
#

😄 lol sounds like imma be bitching if it doesnt proc then

#

ty cali :3! imma go for it

raw solstice
#

@leaden ginkgo I mean, it looks like he's moving slower in the second clip, too. All mounts have the same speed, flat out, the only differences are the SDS fenrir and/or if you have mount speed upgrades. Toggling on/off walk can make a difference, and for controller if you tilt the control stick slightly vs fully that changes the speed too

wintry chasm
#

^

raw solstice
#

there's no magical different speed value or anything

fading nova
#

Anybody know if i can do anything to download faster? It takes 20 hours to complete

leaden ginkgo
#

@raw solstice we're on PC and he's walking a lot faster compared to the shop mount, it's because he has 150ms that he might look slower but in game we're walking the same speed/have the same gap compared to the shop mount he just bought

#

You can see a huge difference in walk speed

#

Between his choco and shop mount

wintry chasm
#

I don't really want to say anywhere to get the game cheapest because I don't know what region you are in or the pricing or whatever but a 30 days time card is literally a thing you can buy for a code to add 30 days to your account @long onyx

#

A one off addition of time unlike a sub

long onyx
#

so basically this game is a monthly subscription?

gritty oracle
#

So a while back I read some news about a chocobo carriage mount that would be 4-person, but I checked the mogstation today and no trace of it. Is it earnable in game or has it just not been released yet?

wintry chasm
#

This is a subscription based game yes

#

I recall seeing something like that Vie

#

Pretty sure it's never been mentioned

#

(I think it was datamined???)

gritty oracle
#

huh

twilit arch
#

fairly certain it was just artwork

#

and not a legit mount

gritty oracle
#

okay so I actually googled it and apaprently a "Preview from Korean Dev Blog" was released on Nov 26.

twilit arch
#

oh actually

#

it was yeah, k dev

#

doesn't look like it was released on KR

#

and if it does get brought over to us, it will most likely be cash shop

languid kernel
#

dying in a savage raid hurts gear condition right?

fresh lodge
#

Yes

oak spindle
#

any sch weapons that glow when sheathed?

latent sluice
#

I hope a fashion report question is okay.... can I still get a 100, and thus the title, if I am missing a single piece, and instead make up the difference with the other correct looks with better dyes on them?

leaden ginkgo
#

How do I get the deathbringer ultima?

green grail
#

clear the weapon's refrain (ultimate), so basically one of the hardest fights in the game requiring 60-100h of prog for a group of good players

leaden ginkgo
#

Goddamn

Can I CTRL+Right Click to add a flag on map without it putting <flag> in chat?

leaden ginkgo

Is there a way to make a non glowable weapon glow?

tender estuary
#

@sturdy mason if you're just using it for personal reasons then you can just delete the flag text the flag icon should still show on the map

#

it just wont for any of your party

sturdy mason
#

I am using it for personal only, but reason I'm asking is because it's annoying to clear chat every time

yeah I agree, I dont know of any way though sorry

Is there any way to make the bar on the duty you're playing as another character appear as your first bar?

Does FFXIV limit class in free trial version ?

you can level up 35

on any job you can unlock

what's the best way to get the last 2 levels 79 and 80? do i just keep running trusts? i'm at 9m xp out of 32m needed lol

gritty oracle
#

So, can someone explain the level 30 DRG quest to me? I just turned it in. Apparently, the Azure Dragoon had the Eye (which as I gather is [HW spoilers] ||not actually Nidhogg's eye but his job stone? the wording is kind of confusing but honestly both the job stone and Nidhogg's eye are rightfully his||... and then stole it? He stole his own stuff and so the Holy See sends an outsider to deal with him? An outsider who, were they not the WoL, would probably get swatted down by The Azure Dragoon in like .1 seconds if they actually started a confrontation asking him to return the Eye?
Or does any of this get explained later?

hoary cobalt
#

I'm fresh, and I'm using free trial version. And I see only can play some classes in Discipline war and magic , is it right ?

#

if i want to play more class , I have to buy game ?

gritty oracle
#

Yes. All of the expansion jobs require either a higher level or an expansion you don't have.

#

The exception is Rogue which is technically speaking not an expansion job but still isn't available through character creation.

hoary storm
#

Is there a way to check how long left on road to 70 besides lodestone achievements?

crude relic
#

The classes you choose at the start are just the base classes, you'll get the jobs unlocked at lvl 30 for each class then Dark Knight, Machinist, Astrologian, Dancer, Gunbreaker, Samurai and Red Mage are locked behind the various expansions for the game, the first 3 are locked until you get Heavensward, SAM and RDM are unlocked at lvl 50 if you have Stormblood and Dancer and Gunbreaker are unlocked at level 60 if you have Shadowbringers.

hoary cobalt
#

Thanks Vie ❤️ and Athos

#

Heavensward Stormblood Shadowbringers : Are they quest ?

remote lintel
#

they are dlc names

wintry chasm
#

Those are expansions

remote lintel
#

if you buy shadowbringers you get all the rest of the dlcs iirc

wintry chasm
#

@gritty oracle I'd probably have spoiler tagged more than that but just to explain, for the level 30-50 DRG questline you just need to imagine you're doing it before the HW story. ||The eye he has IS Nidhogg's eye that Ishgard has had for ages. He took the eye from Ishgard, Estinien never owned the eye, I just want to make that clear, he was just the only one allowed to use it. Lastly, The Holy See didn't send an outsider, that's more Alberic's call and specifically requested you IIRC||

#

@remote lintel Yes

gritty oracle
#

Ah, thanks Cal!

dim ridge
#

@leaden ginkgo you can make millions at any point in the game, it's just harder the lower your level is, generally. additionally, some weapons can be made glowy from not glowy, but they're usually relics.

#

weapons that have a variant that glows are usually crafted or relics, or ultimate, as was mentioned

modest bridge
#

Hi i want play the callback campaign, its necessary people add me to friend list before?

little walrus
#

ive been looking for like 15 mins and i cant find it

dim ridge
#

can't find what

leaden ginkgo
#

@dim ridge yeah I saw. I'm currently at level 52 trying to buy some stuff from the market board, specifically glamours, that require gil around the millions range. Do you have any tips on the laziest and fastest way to make a lot of gil?

dim ridge
#

oh the map point i see the map bit lemme look

little walrus
#

i feel dumb lol

wintry chasm
#

Someone from your friend's list or FC has to invite you @modest bridge

#

Just south of Invisible City

#

Towards the northwest

dim ridge
#

?

wintry chasm
#

Lower but same area

modest bridge
#

Then if anyone add me after i can't do anything? =S

little walrus
#

oooh shoot maybe let me check

wintry chasm
#

It's not a maybe

dim ridge
#

@leaden ginkgo well for one, usually you're gonna have to wait til endgame to make a lot fast unless you have crafters/gatherers/the patience to play the market

wintry chasm
#

xD

little walrus
#

on the map it looks like an upper edge of an area

wintry chasm
#

I'm not sure what you mean Alazur

little walrus
#

that was it, thanks guys

dim ridge
#

one thing you can do is find something that sells CONSISTENTLY on your server and just do that, like people always need elemental shards for crafting, etc. you also get gil from just doing msq. if you're trying to get fancy glamour before even beating heavensward, you're going to have a rough time.

hoary cobalt
#

someone said when I reach lvl 10 , I can switch between any class ?

wintry chasm
#

You have to do your level 10 class quest

#

but yes

dim ridge
#

watanuki, yes, you just have to do your level 10 class quest

#

oh cal beat me to it

modest bridge
#

(Sorry my english xD) I mean for example if anyone add me now, i can return? or exclusively i need a frend add before?

wintry chasm
#

Note: that's class you have to do more to get expansion jobs and whatnot

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm just trying to get the Seeing Horde Guillotine

dim ridge
#

yeah can you even equip it??

leaden ginkgo
#

Do I need that rare drop from Nidhogg to make it?

#

No but I'm planning ahead

#

I'm a stylist lol

dim ridge
#

isn't that a level 60 item? and yes

#

discord pls

#

there it finally sent lol

#

but yeah nidhogg ex drops the item for it

wintry chasm
#

Well...you can't friend request someone who isn't online. If you have someone on your friends list or free company and you meet the requirements you can be invited for the campaign

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm hearing horror stories about the item

wintry chasm
#

but you can't get someone to friend request you right now because you can't be online to get the request

leaden ginkgo
#

It has like a very very low chance of dropping

dim ridge
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

I scoop 😢

dim ridge
#

it may be a better idea to focus on hitting 60/finishing hw and getting to a point in the story you can access the fight?

modest bridge
#

Oh, maybie the next time, thank you for you time =)

dim ridge
#

isn't that a level 60 item? and yes

Seeing Horde anything is level 60

Oh nice Miz it's repeating your comments

leaden ginkgo
#

Seeing Horde Guillotine sounds so badass

crude relic
#

Is it repeating? xD

leaden ginkgo
#

I pretty much just made a list of the glamours I want

crude relic
#

Great, Discord is shitting itself.

leaden ginkgo
#

Weathered shadowbringer is obtained through just hitting level 80 right?

crude relic
#

And doing all the role quests

leaden ginkgo
#

Then are there other drk weapons that I get by hitting level milestones

wintry chasm
#

Well yeah

crude relic
#

Yeah and they all turn into a relic iirc

wintry chasm
#

You get job gear at every level cap

#

You just don't get job gear for expansion jobs for the level cap prior to it's release

#

aka no DRK level 50 artifact gear

#

since level 50 is not Heavensward+

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a list of drk weapons I unlock at lvl caps?

crude relic
#

Deathbringer, Antiquated Caladbolg, Weathered Shadowbringer. Done.

#

Pretty sure it's Deathbringer atleast.

leaden ginkgo
#

Oooooo

wintry chasm
#

uhhh

#

sounds believable Athos

#

It's something bringer

leaden ginkgo
#

Antiquated Caladbolg has to be upgraded right

#

Hence the name

sinful breach
#

you can upgrade it in eureka

crude relic
#

Mhmm, good luck finding parties for Eureka tho

leaden ginkgo
wintry chasm
#

It doesn't have to be upgraded

sinful breach
#

eureka can be soloed now so its not that bad

crude relic
#

Is it repeating? xD

#

Even for killing the giant fucking bird whose name I forgot? I remember you practically needed a raid to kill the dude at the least.

wintry chasm
#

Pazuzu?

#

No...

crude relic
#

I think?

wintry chasm
#

Either way

#

Eureka balances itself over how active the area is

#

The reason it took a billion people is because there was a billion people doing Eureka

#

Raising the difficulty

leaden ginkgo
#

Deathbringer awoken does look sexy ngl

o-o fucking discord repeating MY messages now >.>

#

Question for anyone that has a knowledge of general class stuff from other FF games
Is there a healing class they could potentially add that might be similar to WoW's disc priest? I love the dps/healing hybrid gameplay that comes with atonement

hoary cobalt
#

FINAL FANTASY XIV: SHADOWBRINGERS™️ COLLECTOR'S EDITION [PC DOWNLOAD] included Heavensward Stormblood Shadowbringers ?

bitter plaza
#

yes

hoary cobalt
#

so what is the difference between STANDARD EDITION and COLLECTOR'S EDITION ?

crude relic
#

Well, as a healer you're supposed to DPS anyway but uhh in terms of classes? Not really, SCH would probably be the closest you'd get to a Disc Priest from WoW but FF has no classes or jobs similar to a Disc Priest cuz that's a pretty unique class that really you only see in WoW. @vocal canyon

gritty oracle
#

@vocal canyon
The healers in this game are:
White mage: Very raw and upfront damage and healing, plus some healing over time. Plays a lot like hpriest.
Scholar: Has a pet that contributes to healing, lots of oGCDs on a separate resource than mana. has a lot of shields.
Astrologian: Gives the allies cards that make them deal more damage. Can spec into either hots or shields. Lots of cool visuals, the busiest job imo.

twilit arch
#

collector's edition has additional goods like a mount/cosmetic stuff @hoary cobalt

hoary cobalt
#

oh I got it , thanks Kael

vocal canyon
#

Sorry, i should have specified i know what the classes do

#

Im a healer main with almost all classes maxed

dim ridge
#

oh also @leaden ginkgo seeing horde guillotine is lower than a mil on mateus, probably even cheaper on balmung

vocal canyon
#

Was just wondering if there was any potential for a future class closer to disc priests

leaden ginkgo
#

Well it's 800k

#

I only have 30k

vocal canyon
#

But i see now that disc is pretty unique

dim ridge
#

oh. well you said 'in the millions' and it's not in the millions is all lol

crude relic
#

Short answer, no. Long answer, no job in any FF game is like a Disc priest iirc so uhh no.

#

Disc Priest, Death Knight, and I think Demon Hunter are all very VERY unique in the way WoW has them portrayed so none of those really have a FF counterpart.

gritty oracle
#

@vocal canyon To be honest, SE has kind of backed itself into the corner with the regen/shield dichotomy. So unless the overhaul the entire system and basically redesign all three healing classes, I don't see us getting another healer any time soon. :(

leaden ginkgo
#

welllll

#

I was trying to buy some high allagan armor

dim ridge
#

for those, it's usually easier to work with a crafter/provide mats if the price is up high

#

which armor?

hoary storm
#

I think next 2 jobs will be healer and ranged caster

vocal canyon
#

Since they completely ditched AST's time mage theme

#

I can see potential for a time mage healer

Is there really a point to MB-ing them?

#

you can check to see if they're a leve fish

#

to sell them on the mb

how do people skip cutscenes in praetorium

how can i turn off the camera randomly rotation whenever i use skill?

frank zephyr

but how do I check the zones i need to go

#

i know there is a way, but i forgot

raw solstice
#

@proper junco yeah, so you have a setting toggled on that has you face the target when you use something on them (which is good, since if you're facing away it'll just give you an error instead and not let you use the thing). When you're on standard, your camera is in line with where your character is facing, so if your character turns from that, then your camera turns like that

twilit arch
#

look for the quest "Up in Arms" in your quest log, in the compelted section

#

but tbh its probably easier to just have a note pad with the zones and use that

frank zephyr
#

thanks

#

thats what im gonna do

#

i just needed to find the quest

#

thanks a ton

#

this is gonna be so annoying to do, but might aswell just get it over and done

proper junco
#

@raw solstice how do i get rid of my character facing where the camera facing in standard type? or is it not possible and i have to use legacy?

raw solstice
#

that's just kinda how standard works, you'd have to use legacy to decouple character facing and camera facing

rough anchor
#

Will the aether compass let you know of a current no matter where you are as long as you’re in the same area as it, or do you need to be a specific distance away

twilit arch
#

it'll let you know so long as you're in the zone

raw solstice
#

as long as you're in the same zone, it'll say the direction of the closest current to you

Hey all! I had a question regarding the books for upgrading your Atma weapon.
So right now, I'm finishing up one of the books for the Stardust Rod Atma, but for some reason, NONE of the leves or fates are counting. I've tried doing them all with and without the Stardust Rod equipped and neither are making them count. Help?

raw solstice
#

@modest hearth you're doing the FATEs that are on the book itself that you have, and you're doing the specific guildleve listed (guildleves are picked up from a different NPC than the regular levemete)?

modest hearth
#

Correct

remote lintel
#

how are dpses even supposed to do the gift of eternity

#

I fought like 5 enemies and I was practically dead

#

had to switch to my tank halfway through and even then they got me down to less than half health

raw solstice
#

have to take it a bit slow and be cautious. And can bring your chocobo out to help a bit. Also, just generally having solid gear goes a long way

remote lintel
#

putting like 500 enemies in a cramped space is bs

raw solstice
#

@modest hearth which book are you working on/can you take a screenshot of the book's progress?

modest hearth
gaunt mason
#

How do you unlock the lanterns at the scrip exchange? Finish all the facet quests?

raw solstice
#

for the FATES (Giant Seps, Make it Rain, The Enmity of my Enemy) you've completed them fully and successfully with full credit for it? The last one can be a bit confusing too since it's a two-part fate

modest hearth
#

Yeah I've done them to completion

#

Only fate I need is Make it Rain, and I did that with and without the Atma wep equipped

#

Neither counted

raw solstice
#

hmm not quite sure then. If you completed it with a gold rating then you should have gotten credit for it

leaden ginkgo
#

How do you pronounce Alisaie?

raw solstice
#

@gaunt mason yep, that seems to be correct

modest hearth
#

willnani Okay I just did the Leve again just for the fun of it, and it counted this time

#

I'm so lost

raw solstice
#

no idea but hurry do the FATE and hopefully it works too

#

don't question it and hope the issue doesn't resurface

#

and if it does then I guess we can try to sort it out as needed haha

wintry chasm
#

Ah a question for me

#

Excellent

raw solstice
#

oh yeah I was actually going to ping you for funsies to answer that personally

wintry chasm
#

Hmm

#

I'm not sure how to describe the pronunciation of saie

#

It's not say

#

more ends in an a

lament wagon
#

start pronouncing say but don't say the y

wintry chasm
#

s-sure

#

That'll do

#

Ah-lee-say (don't pronounce with y, end it with a hard "a" sound)

hoary storm
#

Just say Arize

wintry chasm
hoary storm
#

Thats how it sounds in JP

leaden ginkgo
#

Damn I thought there was some french pronunciation to it

lament wagon
#

that's the french pronounciation

#

the saie

leaden ginkgo
#

I thought Alphinaud was Al-fi-nod

wintry chasm
#

French don't tend to pronounce the end of words anyway

#

so no

#

so it's more like

leaden ginkgo
wintry chasm
#

alphinau/alfino

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah Ik

modest hearth
#

Bruh now it's counting

#

Thanks FFXIV

raw solstice
#

my mantra: if a problem only happens once and magically fixes itself without you having to do anything, don't question it and just keep going on, hoping it doesn't happen again

sonic sapphire
#

Are there rare mob (from world or just trash mobs from a duty) drops? Such as unique/rare armours, mounts, etc

#

Or that's something that FFXIV keeps only for duties/bosses, unlike WoW

short crater
#

Well, you have Ixion for instance, which drops tokens that you can then trade in for a mount. Pretty sure there's a few FATEs like this

wintry chasm
#

There are unique fates that are special bosses like Ixion which do drop tokens you can trade for items yes

#

Like you described

#

Odin

#

Behemoth

#

Ixion

#

Proto-Ultima

short crater
#

Invincible too ?

#

For the Ironfrog

raw solstice
#

they're all cosmetic-related, to note, not actually like good gear to use at endgame or whatever

sonic sapphire
#

Yes yes, that's what i was refering

#

I come from wow (hence the huge amount of references) where it's not that uncommon to see that, idk, the lamias from Azys Lla have a 0.1% chance to drop a wind-up Lamia

#

to say something

#

and it didn't look like it on FFXIV, so i assumed it didn't

#

Now I know it's mostly limited to instances and some special fates

indigo comet
#

so given that dps queues are longer, what's an efficient way to level an alt dps job?

static yacht
#

PotD

#

have a friend queue with you

#

HoH

short crater
#

Daily Roulettes too

gloomy ice
#

PotD/HoH, the randomized dungeons, are decent for queue times on DPS

static yacht
#

MSQ roulette every day

short crater
#

If you're in the 70-80 bracket, do the Pixies beast tribe quests, gives about 25% of your exp bar per reset

#

50% on a rank-up day

indigo comet
#

only lvl 16 lancer rn, trying out dps

static yacht
#

Are they ever going to increase the exp from HW / SB beast tribes?

#

(the non-crafting ones)

indigo comet
#

is potd solo worth it?

short crater
#

Don't think they made any announcement in that regard, no :/

indigo comet
#

*doable

short crater
#

It is doable, there's an achievement for it, but it's not worth it for the experience, you'll go much faster with other people

rustic moth
#

Does FF14 have crossplay?

Yeah i talked him into trying it out.

Are level 70 dungeons worse for leveling to 71 than level 69 dungeons?

#

Maybe they give less XP or?

twilit arch
#

yes, they are

#

they're not intended to be used for leveling, so the exp they give is pretty poor

dim ridge
#

that said, running your daily 50/60/70 roulette still gives bonus exp/etc

harsh cobalt

Even though i main a tank class should i play a dps

You don't have to

How long do i have left for ARR i just defeated garuda

Of the base game before patches?

Not a lot really

Including patches, aka how long till Heavensward, you got a long way to go still

patches are the long bit tho

Yes and no

Yeah

Yes, Esteban

#

Dang

#

Thanks

harsh cobalt
#

Are the patches any good?

#

Or is it mail man simulator as well

slate arrow
#

which patches

alpine shadow
#

is there a way to copy character settings over characters?

harsh cobalt
#

After ARR

wintry chasm
#

Mail simulator

#

It's a good story though

#

Just questionable quest design and pacing

#

Well

#

I hate the first trial

harsh cobalt
#

Well back to delivering for me

wintry chasm
#

I hate it thematically

#

@alpine shadow from where to where?

alpine shadow
#

main to alt

wintry chasm
#

Character to another character or same character between to platforms?

#

Right well

alpine shadow
#

same platform

wintry chasm
#

On PC you can go to your XIV folder in documents

#

And find your character folders which contain your character settings

#

And then copy and paste from one folder to the other folder replacing the settings

alpine shadow
#

uh, how do i find which folder?

wintry chasm
#

If you look in the folders there should be a common dat file or something

#

The date on that file changes when you log in

#

So just log in on your main

#

Look at the folders to see which one had the date change

#

And then you know which folder is your main

#

And you can do a similar thing for your alt

#

(or just blanket all the other character folders with my main's settings like I did)

alpine shadow
#

i think i got it now

heavy marsh
#

In what formation does Ivalician Oracle Hat drop in

#

A B C?

wintry chasm
#

Gear isn't categorised by A B or C

#

That just corresponds to which party gets what chest

twilit arch
#

you have a chance of getting it from the first and second boss' chests

wintry chasm

alpine shadow
#

rip gearsets

wintry chasm
#

Doesn't matter what party you are in

alpine shadow
#

oh no, i made a grave mistake

#

i forgot that my hotbar is using class-specific hotbar for those macro

#

now i cant change them

heavy marsh
#

I thought it did

alpine shadow
#

can still copy the hotbar thankfully

little crane
#

Man how do people manage all the trash gear my mind is overheating

#

I'm probably gonna need it when I level another job but urgh

#

It's so hard

slate arrow
#

you either toss it, desynth it, turn it in for seals, or sell it.

valid prairie
#

Are account linked to the game purchase? For example, if I buy the complete addition is my SE ID associated with it or can my boyfriend and I both play the same complete edition purchase as long as we have separate subscription accounts?

it's a consumable item afaik, so no

Also if I buy a HW skip, I'll retain the road to 70 buff, correct.

hey guys, if u do the MSQ dungeons with the NPCs is there extra dialog or story?

i play with my SO as a Tank/healer duo, so we dont need to do it with the npcs, unless theres more story/dialog

@sturdy mason you need more crystals

sturdy mason

oh god

@little walrus they just have flavor text to say in the dungeon for the most part

Are there more themes similar to the one in O12S?

anything worth actually doing it? or should i just go with dutyfinder?

#

and can u do Trust later, or ONLY when u have the msq?

obsidian patio
#

You can do them later

slate arrow
#

you can do trusts later, however once you finish the MSQ you will have to level them up manually, rather than them already being on level.

for the animus step do I need to have the relic wep equiped or i just need to complete the objectives?

How does the 2fa work in ffxiv?

slate arrow

yes, but you'll need a friend

leaden ginkgo
#

Idk if I should get the security token that I just discovered

warped nest
#

You either install an app

#

Or get a physical device

#

Not sure about the process of acquiring the physical device

#

The app just need you to input a secret key from your account

#

Then it will work

#

Take note that removing the app now requires the secret key as well

chilly marsh
#

That's the issue, all of my friends are in the dead FC and are inactive

warped nest

So don't toss your phone willy nilly

Imo, 2fa is optional unless you travel a lot

Hunt train, aetherochemical research facility/the first Heavensward 60 dungeon, not much else off the top of my head.

Are the collector's edition items interesting/cool?

sturdy mason
#

So I have a super rare fish I want to desynth for an expensive cloth. I want to make sure I do this right. I admit I don't fully understand the desynth leveling system. It says "Desynthesizable: 80.00 (Culinarian)". What is the number?

green grail
#

your desynth level

#

if it's above 80 there's a way higher chance of getting the rare mat

sturdy mason
#

how do I know what my desynth level is

slate arrow
#

It was the minimum desynth needed to be able to desynth the item successfully

#

Now it's just when you have a higher chance of getting rare materials

green grail
#

hover over the crafter level in character screen

slate arrow
#

You check your desynth level by going into your character menu, and switching from DoW/DoM to DoL/DoH

sturdy mason
green grail
#

it's all cosmetics so it's super subjective, if you like anything then buy it, if you don't then don't @wooden glen

wooden glen
#

I finally found images of them, heh

green grail
#

80 desynth is pretty low so just get a bunch of higher level trash fish and desynth them

sturdy mason
#

What can I do to level my CUL desynth to past 80? And how far past 80 should I go for a good chance at the rare mat?

green grail
#

should take like 30 mins

sturdy mason
#

what level fish?

green grail
#

dunno try a few different level ranges, but you generally start with getting like 1.5-3 points per item desynthed

#

then it gets lower as you level down to like 0.80 or less

#

just get a bunch of trash fish and spam desynth them

sturdy mason
#

desynth requires WAY too many clicks

wooden glen
#

Boy this order sure is being processed.

I guess it went through, since I got the e-mail. Page still spinning, heh
