i have a question
now i'm a conjurer.. but a lancer quest showed up..should i avoid that quest or just do it?
gloomy ice
You don't have to unlock all of the classes if you don't want to. They can be safely ignored unless you decide to be a new class.
leaden ginkgo
what about other works?
for example leather
leatherworker
or something like that
botanist ..ecc..
gloomy ice
Crafters and gatherers are a neat side distraction and a fantastic way to make money with the proper investment but they're optional.
leaden ginkgo
i wanna make new costumes !!
wintry chasm
You'd have to invest a fair bit of time Erin
You can't just make everything at level 1
gloomy ice
Then it's definitely worth pursuing but it's going to take a lot of time to get there. Crafters have their own exp, levels, etc., and they play much differently than the combat classes.

what's the difference between determination and tenacity?
devout summit
hello, anyone using PS4 DualShock 4 controller for PC (Windows 10) ?
is it normal for my system to detect it as 'Wireless Controller' instead of "DualShock 4" (as stated by some websites ?), I was curious cause some sites said if Windows 10 did not detect the DS4 as DualShock 4 (as any other devices), I might be getting a fake/counterfeit DS4 controller...
it does works on FFXIV though
twilit arch
tenacity is only for tanks, it also reduces dmg while determination is for all roles and only increases dmg/healing done @leaden ginkgo
elder merlin
Windows won't recognise it properly in device manager, Steam will tho. Outside of steam games I use DS4Windows, with steam games you can configure it in steam : )

Friends, is it worth choosing a server with XP boost/New in ff14 or are they gigadead like in wow?
twilit arch
its worth it
servers generally aren't that lower in population. duty finder pulls from all servers in your datacenter, and if you can't find something for cheap on your server's marketboard you can always world visit over to another
elder merlin
Wait, character isn't bound to a server? 
twilit arch
you are
as there are some restrictions to world visit
like free companies are still server bound, as if you want a house you can only purchase on on your server
elder merlin
I'd like to level up in the xp bonus realm, but later on play on established realm
Is that a thing
twilit arch
and if you're interested in raiding, most people do cross server statics anyway
so even if you're on a small server, you can still find people to raid with
elder merlin
I believe that, but if I changed my mind about the server later on, is it possible to transfer the character?
twilit arch
yes
elder merlin
Thanks brother
twilit arch
with real money, ofc
elder merlin
How much ~?
twilit arch
18$
hoary storm
Do you still have the HDD of the old computer?
elder merlin
Also, is it worth buying the expansion as I start the game now? Or is the content only starts on high level?
hoary storm
All your char info like hud/skills is saved on your computer
twilit arch
if you're interested in playing red mage or samurai when you hit 50, or starting the game as au ra, viera or hrothgar, then buying the expansion now might be ideal
but other than that, no not much reason to buy the expansion right off the bat if you're not entirely sold on the game
elder merlin
@twilit arch I quit wow after being in top rankings of M+ for a couple of seasons, I'm pretty sure I'll stick around 😄
Thank you for advice ❤️
hoary storm
Skills wise youll have to do yourself, since its ur hotkeys, as for HUD there are some videos on ppl teaching how to make it more clean and practical
Just look up something like "FF14 hud layout guide"
When I took a break sometime ago felt terrible coming back too, and I had lost all Hud/keybinds so I had to redo everything, but after some time I got used to it again
Best thing for hotkeys is putting similar skills on the same place for different jobs
Like an approach skill same hotkey for every job
This is my current layout for keybinds
This is my HUD for healer with party closer to middle of the screen
When I play DPS I put the party on the corner of the screen

Got a question for anyone
It's been a long time since I've done Aether currents and I'm currently helping a buddy get the currents in the HW locations, but for some reason they can't see any currents in Sea of Clouds. We just finished the Dravanian Forelands and he could see those fine
I don't remember being barred from currents like that, is there a step I'm forgetting?
zinc orbitBOT
hoary storm
What does it say when they use the item to locate the current in sea of clouds?
leaden ginkgo
For context they do already have a current in Sea of Clouds, a discovered current - not a quest-based one
stray saffron
@mortal root you can only do the same turnin once a day
and the turnins rotate every day
leaden ginkgo
It says there are currents. Did the locations change in the past few years maybe?
I can't imagine that'd be the case but I have no idea
dry glade
it tells you the general direction and distance in ilms. Just walk that direction, or preferably ride and eventually you should see them.
leaden ginkgo
We found one, but it wasn't on the map I was referencing. Location was totally off
Yes we understand that, but I was using a map online as reference as it's been a long time and we were trying to do it fast. Seems the maps I found online have them in incorrect spots, but I've found a map with locations that are seemingly correct now
So unless all these maps are wrong, not sure what happened or if they changed the locations, but we're good now. Thank you
dry glade
ahh, I used a map the first time. The second time I just hit the item while doing area quests. The second way was much more fun.
leaden ginkgo
Cool
Anyways thanks again
If anyone has the same questions I have in future, turns out the locations were changed and I had no idea. Hope someone else receives that answer when asked in future 👍

@mortal root iirc counts each type of turn in not how many they ask for. Been a minute since I did GC stuff however as I’m not training crafters atm.

inner saddle
I just started crafting, is it possible to craft multiple items at once, or I need to craft one at a time
(weaver)
raven sage
You're looking for the crystals
little crane
I got them
obsidian patio
@inner saddle you can only craft one at a time
There’s quick synthesis, but you lose out on a ton of experience by doing it that way
inner saddle
so it's a pain in the ass to craft base materials?
raven sage
It wants you to kill the ones that react to the poke
little crane
I did
raven sage
Did you kill all three
little crane
Yea
It's just so strange
It wants you to poke those that respond, kill them
And then kill the ones that dont respond
gloomy ice
@inner saddle Unfortunately. Quick Synth helps but at that point it's a question of time vs effort.
little crane
Wtf do I need the crystals for xD
inner saddle
quick synth isn't rapid synth, right?
raven sage
It's part of the turn in?
little crane
But I can use the crytals
obsidian patio
Quick Synthesis is the button by synthesis before you start a craft
inner saddle
ah ok, I don't have this option yet
gloomy ice
Quick Synth is something that unlocks I think at level 10? It enables you to mass produce materials but there's less exp and HQ is purely chance.
little crane
Yeah just figoured it out as well....
It's so strangely written
I was so confused wow
gloomy ice
@little crane But it's a mechanic that can be ignored. No need to worry about it since you can just smack everything until you find the target.
little crane
Yeah well it made me confused cause "poke and get the crystals"
And then no one else reponds to the poke and it doesn't say anywhere to use the crystals
gloomy ice
It is strange yes lol

how can I get another katana apart from the one I got from the samurai quest?

You can find them with vendors who sell stuff at level 50+, on MB, as drops from 51+ leveling dungeons, in your GC shop, or from tomestone vendors.

@remote lintel the sister twins in mor dhona sell a magetek katana that can upgraded to ilvl 130 via poetics stones

I was gonna use this recipe to get from level 61 WVR to 70. Will the EXP reward not reset to 10k before I hit 70?
gloomy ice
Oh wait no
Sorry. I'm all mixed up there. There is a fall off but I don't know where it is. As you get closer to 70, there's sort of diminishing returns.
raven sage
@sturdy mason it looks like it drops once you're 10 levels higher than the recipe
sonic sapphire
so with my first tank and healer leveling i discovered a lot of new key words which idk about.
What can Esna remove?
What's impervious??
And finally, am i gonna use Repose? or it's suuper niche

Or at least around that
lyric warren
what is the name of these accessories in the tank?
twilit arch
Moonlit Tank Trimmings @lyric warren
lyric warren
ah is it 1 set for all items excluding the fish
twilit arch
esuna can remove any debuff with a white line over it. you're probably not going to use repose all that often, may be in open world if you pull more mobs than you can handle but generally its not used in dungeons or raids @sonic sapphire
ye its 1 set item
sonic sapphire
thanks!
i'll just assume impervious is "invencible", either way that Gunbreaker CD would be useless
twilit arch
ye, impervious means you're basically immune to damage
gritty oracle
I used Repose exactly once before when I was running back to the group and accidentally aggroed something right before the shifting sands so I couldn't teleport. But even then I just typed /ac Repose. I think you can safely yeet it from your hotbars.

It isn't too different from the regular one. Only differences are after the phase transition. There are big green tornadoes which prevent you from standing in the middle of the room and two new adds near the end. Both have to be killed but green should go down first.

Queue for selected dungeons rather than roulette gives company seals?
I'm leveling my healer, so it's always instant queue, but without daily the roulette bonus is quite small and the adventurer in need aswell, so unless selecting the dungeons you wanna do doesn't award company seals I think i'll stick to selecting only the dungeons around my level
Apart from that, any advice on leveling?
raven sage
You should only be doing the daily roulette and then your highest level dungeon
The roulette gives the seals but dungeons don't otherwise
twilit arch
that said, once you're Sergeant 2nd class with your grand company you can trade in dungeon gear for grand company seals

Learnin to heal currently. About level 30+atm. I mostly use Cure 1, since it seems adequate enough, but I suspect I'm overhealing a bit.

if you quick synth with collectability buff on does it make collectables?

slate arrow
you can't quick synth collectibles

it doesn't for this one
twilit arch
if you can quick synth it, it won't be made into a collectable
sturdy mason
ah ok
fresh lodge
You can quicksynth the item, but you can't quicksynth out collectables
So you're just wasting your mats and time by using quick synth
stable herald
Generally speaking, is it hard to hit the collectability requirements for turn ins?
faint flare
Not if you have sonewhat decent gear and a idea of rotation...its just like HQing stuff
stable herald
Im not sure what first tier is, sorry. Am talkin abt Rowena
twilit arch
first tier = minimum collectability required
stable herald
Ah
faint flare
When you hover over turn in, it tells you the 3 tierd of collectibity for rewards
twilit arch
if you're going for max rewards, then it can be a bit harder if your gear isn't that amazing
stable herald
I'm full Handking gear. Aiming for 70 turn ins
twilit arch
but even then you can get away with some stuff since the max collectability is not 100% the bar
you should be fine in handking

the 30 days of sub you get from buying and registering the game is not the trial, but the full game

Can someome explain how servers work in this game? There are 4 right? If im on eu light i get matched on dungeoms with people only from that one server? I read somewhere they want to put cross-server party finder or did i mix it?
twilit arch
Light is a data center, which is a cluster of servers @sleek peak
warped nest
Data Center is a collection of World
slate arrow
the Xbox One 2.0 controllers are all bluetooth compatble @fierce cedar
warped nest
Dungeons and raids are match made inside a Data Center
twilit arch
so the duty finder pulls from people from all servers in the light data center
sleek peak
Yea but i can get matched on Lich with people from Zodiark etc
Yet i cant play with NA/Asia righ5

Cuz they are Worlds inside the Light Data Center
twilit arch
you can only play with people in the light data center
can't play with people in chaos or aether

duty finder is already cross server

The only clients which are entirely seperate from the GLOBAL release are the Chinese and Korean Launchers
which are usually 1-2 patches behind

If you want to, you can use a NA PS4 to play on Japan Data Center with Japanese players who ran their game on PC
sleek peak
Still i cant play with Australian friend thats on Asia server righ5

If they're on the same JP Datacenter, Yes.
warped nest

you'd need to have a character on their data center to play with them

Even if they make that option available in the future

You can't join FC or own houses in a different server
manic oasis

The "paid" version is the Home World Transfer, if that's what you're thinking about. You use that if you desire to own a House or join an FC on a different server.
warped nest
You can do FATE, buy stuff, or party up for open world questing with world visit
manic oasis
what can you do with a house
warped nest
Decorate it
slate arrow
And on the ARR rework, technically it does affect players past that point, namely for New Game Plus. otherwise, yeah, it's irrelevant.
Houses are just gil sinks for a solo player. They do have some use, like gardening if you own a House, but for Free Companies, a decent portion of the advantages of having an FC are behind houses. Stuff like submarines and Free Company Actions require a house.
(Well, getting Free Company Actions at level 3, that is.)
manic oasis
okie
warped nest
Don't expect any major story rework
Personally, I am expecting them replacing "travel to these 3 locations and talk to NPCs" with "talk to this NPC to get the report on these 3 locations"

If only 1 target, full damage ofc
twin kelp
right

Np
raw solstice
few things not quite correct there
secondary targets are hit for 25% of the max, not 50%
and I'm almost certain it does not care what you have targetted, for what's chosen as primary target
and instead it's just, whichever enemy is closest to you takes the 100%
junior yacht
yeah the AoE is centered on the dancer, not the target
damage is assigned based on distance from the player

@crude relic from my very brief reading, rook is pretty much used when you've got like 70/90 battery and pretty much never use overdrive as it'll go off automatically at the end

Mmk, so I don't need overdrive on my bar at all then?
twilit arch
i would still keep it on, just incase you do need to detonate early (I.e the fight is almost over and rook will last longer)
i mean you can toss if you're not that worried about it but if you're serious about playing mch, i'd would probably keep it on for those instances

Some hardcore raiders do make alts to get around the weekly lockout

so yes there's caps but only at the highest of endgame levels. you won't likely hit them

ricochet's just a damage ogcd like gauss round, except aoe too

and the turret is kinda like a dot basically
and then a bigger hit when it ends

Is Savage Coil as easy as other coils if unsynced?
green grail
if you're a group of a couple 80s then probably, though T9 can be an issue on both normal and savage i think
potent star
I probably already know the answer, but can one get the 15 days extra added to your starter edition’s 30 days if you leveled to 30 in the free trial? Or would you have to stop before reaching 30 and then buy the starter edition and level there for the 15 extra days?
green grail
you can either stop at 29 and buy the game and get the extra days, or just at some point in the future when you're already deeper into the game just make an alt on a preferred world and reach 30 on that whenever you feel like it
the days aren't gone till you get them
your choice when you do it
potent star
Ah, thank you
I already got the 15 days, but I bought the Starter Edition around lvl 20
My cousin, on the other hand, will have to wait a few days before being able to buy the game, so I wanted to know if it was safe to take him to level 30 before then
Thank you for the information! It is deeply appreciated!
edgy pebble
can flying mounts be used anywhere?
gloomy ice
Mounts can not fly in ARR zones but they can in every expansion zone barring cities.
green grail
yes, but in base game areas they function as ground mounts
all mounts are flying mounts actually
edgy pebble
I guess what I mean is can you fly anywhere or only in heavensward areas? I dunno what ARR zone means
gloomy ice
Heavensward onward. None of the original zones have flight.
green grail
in heavensward, stormblood and shadowbringers zones only, ARR is the base game, so things like the black shroud, thanalan, la noscea, mor dhona, western coerthas
edgy pebble
I see. Well I was thinking of buying a story skip so that I could access flying mounts right away. Is it worth using story skips or no?
green grail
for just flying? not really, considering you basically only unlock flying in a zone when you finish questing in it
wintry chasm
FFXIV is a story-based MMO so you'd be skipping one of the most important parts

@edgy pebble All that said 1-49 and some of the patch quests at level 50 are a hecking slog, but heavensward content (that is also going to be skipped) is actually really good. So, while I don't really think you need to skip because you'll breeze through all of it in something like a week of average playtime of like 2-3 hours a day, if you decide to do so, I'd still watch recap of A Realm Reborn story and replay heavensward through NewGame+
I don't remeber if it skips Stormblood as well
shrewd light
for the doman enclave donations, can i payit all off in 1 donation instead of waiting every week?
white moth
I think there's a limit for how much items in gil value you can donate
I think it's either 10k or 20k gil a week
Wait
shrewd light
it stops you at 20k cause they cant reinburce you the extra ammount but it doesntstop me from just donating 300k of those gold bags at oncee
white moth
To donate items to the cause, players must interact with the Donation Basket located at the Shazenkai. For every item donated, players will receive a gratuity amounting to a sum of gil slightly higher (120%) than what would normally be received when selling those items to a regular vendor. This gratuity increases (180%) after completing the first phase of reconstruction efforts (120,000 gil donated), and increases yet again (200%) after further progress (160,000 gil donated). The enclave has a limited weekly budget of 20,000 gil used to pay for this gratuity, and as such, players may only donate so many items each week. This budget increases to 25,000 gil, 30,000 gil, and 40,000 gil after the enclave has made considerable progress (160,000 gil, 210,000 gil, and 270,000 gil donated, respectively). The budget will reset every week on Tuesday at 1:00 a.m. (PDT).
obsidian patio
donating past what they will pay you is wasted in both gil and progress
white moth
Yeah you can only get moneys for those limited budgets
So from what I understand you get your budget upgraded each 6 weeks?

meet both criteria and you're set
slate arrow
also, levequests dont give much EXP so dont do that
dim ridge
Borgar, if you need exp, the best thing is to run the highest level dungeon you have access to. Leves give VERY little exp, to the point they're nearly a waste of time
slate arrow
the highest level dungeon you can do will always give you the most exp (besides the 50, 60, and 70 dungeons.)
dim ridge
alternatively, palace of the dead is viable
