Hello, what's the easiest way to get peisteskin map?
obsidian patio
level 45/50 nodes
frosty badger
I mean, are there nodes that give only this type without toadskin and others
obsidian patio
The nodes I used to do for them are the level 50 ones in the east shroud
nope, just gotta keep trying
open coral
I think once you get to... 20? Doing Ishgard restoration is the best.
Not sure what the minimum level for Ishgard is, but once you hit that, it's supposed to be the best way to level DoH
leaden ginkgo
I can only start on 20?
open coral
I think so.
Before that, levequests are supposedly the best xp from what I've heard.
I haven't leveled any DoH yet though, so someone who has will need to confirm.
oak spindle
where do i get the tamomo headband and the fox stuff? i know its from a fate but where does it spawn and do i have to farm it?
leaden ginkgo
I'm close then
open coral
The Foxy Lady FATE is a rare spawn and does not appear on the map (like Ixion, Ultima, and Odin).
obsidian patio
open coral
There are certain FATEs which will trigger it, or which indicate that it has been/will be triggered.
leaden ginkgo
I'm burning all my money completing these levequests :O
lusty remnant
Is there any catch-up guide out for fresh 80 crafters/gatherers that has been updated recently?
onyx kiln
am i missing something if i can see the desynthisis option on a item but its grayed out and i can't click it?
frank zephyr
was thinking of getting an apartment ingame. any tips/things I should/avoid?
onyx kiln
any plan on one day changing data/server?
onyx kiln
then thats the only thing i can contribute as someone who don't have a ingame home
leaden ginkgo
are the golden saucer events held in-game time or real time?
onyx kiln
real time
ocean zinc
RT
onyx kiln
think its once every 15 minutes
ocean zinc
check the Gold Saucer attendant in the Entrance Square for details
(or in the 5.2 patchnote)
onyx kiln
can also talk to GATE attendants , they tell you what the next event is going to be, how long to it and if you want to be teleported to the place you start it at.
oak ice
@leaden ginkgo Every 20 minutes starting on the hour real time
oak spindle
is there a foxy lady fate or a ultima fate tracker?
raven mason
i bought the complete edition through the square enix store, how long does it usually take to get your code? if I had known it would take over an hour I would have bought from amazon
zinc orbitBOT
whole wasp
check your junk email?
raven mason
i have checked there, the emails have been going to my main inbox. I got one for order verification which they sent me an sms then its been awaiting confirmation for about an hour now
rich bay
@oak spindle, no there is no tracker for world boss fates in general due to their RNG nature. (It doesn't always trigger even when their timer is up.)
I am the one on the light DC that keeps track of those fates somewhat.
oak spindle
ah thats annoying ill just camp out in azys la for a while then
blissful rampart
what ilvl are the 5.2 normal raid gears?
green grail
480
blissful rampart
even the weapon?
green grail
there's no weapon from normal mode raids
blissful rampart
oh okok
so if i would to buy full set of i480 crafted gear
then i don't need to worry about the raid eh?
green grail
if you don't have any alts to gear then sure
but you still want to replace i480 with i490 capped tome gear
blissful rampart
that's exchanged from the weekly currency thing right?
green grail
ye
blissful rampart
okie thanks
lusty remnant
Should a fresh 80 crafter go for the Dwarven set first with a certain rotation, or straight up attempt to get mid-tier gear?
rare sable
Depends on what you plan to do/make I guess
And depends on how ambitious you are at melding
lusty remnant
Maybe get the new 480 pieces in HQ, but that is all.
leaden ginkgo
each ticket you buy from the jumbo cactpot does that get you the consolation prize? so say I buy 5 tickets I will get 5000 mgp for just participating (if the consolation prize is 1000 each)
rare sable
@veltis making new 480 battle set?
Then I would suggest getting melded facet HQ
Mmm that wont be enough
If you dont want to buy/grind for materia, you grind for white scrip set
lusty remnant
I need extra white scrip for each tool and secondary, no?
lusty remnant
I know
Seems just ... a bit too dense for me to get through this all. And the new changes on crafting isn't making it easier, either.
rare sable
Mmmh, crafting is hard work
raven mason
trying to buy something off the mogstation and i get error code i2501, anybody deal with this before?
warped nest
Just some network error
raven mason
ok so just try again later?
zinc orbitBOT
rare sable
It's like normal vs savage for battle class
If you just want to make "easy" stuff, you can get away with low stat, but if you want to make latest masterbook stuff... be prepared to grind/work hard for it
Technically you can get away with subpar stat if you have enough HQ mats > make HQ pre-mats , but its even more pain
onyx kiln
do i want tenacity as a Ninja?
warped nest
Nope
onyx kiln
anything besides skill speed and crit?
warped nest
What level are you now?
onyx kiln
80

crit and dh
onyx kiln
gearing up for the new eden raids
warped nest
Look here for stat priority
onyx kiln
normal run that is.
rare sable
Normal you dont need melds
whole wasp
normal you can wear anything
but ninja wants crit and dh. det if both capped
Skillspeed not that good since you are already going so fast
with Huton
warped nest
You might need to meld a lil skillspeed to hit a threshold, this depends on what you need to hit and what gears you got
onyx kiln
speaking of Huton, been meaning to ask this since i got the skill but does it speed up the cooldown on my off globals?
stable herald
Is the golden pig in idly also a custom delivery person?
I dont see any option to hand in?
onyx kiln
nevermind, just read the textbox where it clearly states it only does weaponskills
rare sable
@aoi yes, though he needs you on higher level
stable glade
I just unlocked the Cinder Drift Extreme duty, but it's not showing up in my Duty Finder and I can't talk to the Warmachina Fanatic anymore.
oak ice
It's under the High-End Duties tab
oak ice
Okay, so what's the issue, then?
stable glade
It's not there.
rare sable
||Wow, rude||
stable glade
As I had mentioned, it's not showing up in my Duty Finder
High-End duties was the first place I checked.
whole wasp
did you click trials?
stable glade
Yes.
High-end Trials (Shadowbringers)
Got the clear for Cinder Drift, talked to the fanatic, unlocked the duty
whole wasp
stable glade
and still nothing
stable herald
Ah. Didnt do Purbol Rain, i ???think??
Thanks @rare sable
robust magnet
Which crafting class currently makes the most money? If any stand out from the rest that is.
stable herald
I don't think there are any special "rolling in gil" crafters
whole wasp
CUL for consistency if you make food, ALC makes lots of intermediaries. the rest is about the same.
leaden ginkgo
@robust magnet from what I gather, you need all of them to make considerable money
whole wasp
maybe WVR/LTW for glamour gear
stable herald
But tbh, for CUL, why not just make the most basic food?
robust magnet
I've got all of em at 80 (as of last night )
stable herald
Why do it special?
leaden ginkgo
That +10% crit I think...
?
robust magnet
but I only have money to afford 1 class of facet tools
stable herald
Well, higher level reciepes
whole wasp
oh, they give more bonus stats
stable herald
Oh. Would have thought the majority use CUL for exp bonus
What does overmelding mean? You just tey to meld extra materia on?
robust magnet
yeah
stable herald
Is there anything i can do to improve my chances?
whole wasp
77 vit vs 177 vit
stable herald
Neat
whole wasp
stormblood food vs shadowbringer food
whole wasp
yup. for savage raids, ultimates and maybe for extreme trials
rare sable
Uh CUL is.... consistent yes, but its also the one that yield the least profit/time
Same with alc's tinctures
stable herald
I guess those making the new gears are rolling in cash
crystal badger
can i buy a fishing rod somewhere?
stable herald
If I get my crafter to 80, how difficult would it be to make the neoishgard gear?
Does it really need high end stuff, HQ mats, the works?
whole wasp
not really.
rare sable
Not hard if you're willing to get facet HQ and meld them
whole wasp
as long as you hit the stats required for the recipe, its actually pretty easy
rare sable
I can do HQ from all NQ with comfy melds
whole wasp
90% all NQ mats last i heard
stable herald
Can I make my own Facet HQ?
whole wasp
sure
stable herald
Scrips?
rare sable
While neo ishgard is masterbook 8
stable herald
How much do those cost?
rare sable
Lots and lots of white scrip if you want to make your own facet
stable herald
How do i get white scrips? All i get is yellow?
rare sable
Sublime solution is, to put it rudely, disgusting (since you need so so so much for full facet set)
whole wasp
you get white scrips from doing custom deliveries at max level and turning in some collectables to mowena/rowena
green grail
it's free from dungeon desynth tho @rare sable
stable herald
Max level me, or max level custom delivery target?
whole wasp
max level you
rare sable
Oh, thats right, the new anyer desynth into facet mats
whole wasp
the old experts too
twilit arch
not just anyder that desynths into sublimes
green grail
idk what's in the new dungeon but yeah, past 80 dungeons do
robust magnet
If you're lucky :C
stable herald
What do you meld at high end?
twilit arch
but you can double up on facet mats from anyder
stable herald
For crafters
robust magnet
I desynthed like 14 lv80 accessories and got no solution
stable herald
And do diff jobs which share gear (e.g SMN, RDM, BLM) have diff meld priorities?
robust magnet
Only 2 of them are near 60 lol.
whole wasp
they are many many ways to meld it because all you need is for craftsmanship to hit minimum requirements for the recipe, max CP then dump the rest into control
twilit arch
that'd be why
rare sable
Yes, blm want sps, while rdm want crit
twilit arch
lower level desynth means you're not going to get that great of stuff from desynthing higher level stuff
rare sable
Omni set is basically compromises...
robust magnet
what options are those for omni?
stable herald
Oh. So gotta compromise. Got it
rare sable
It's @balance
stable herald
And just to tag along the Q, how do I boost desyth? Just desyth lower level gear?
Just keep desynthing? At what point do I stop?
onyx kiln
how long would it take to grind out enough tomestones for the whole crystarium set if i maxed out my weekly tomestones?
whole wasp
for example
twilit arch
The general way to level desynthesis is you just either spam grind dungeons or browse through your crafting log and look at the easy-to-make high level items,
CRP : Larch Ring > White Oak Ring > Lignum Vitae Ring
BSM : High Steel Claw Hammer > Deepgold Pliers > Dwarven Mythril Sledgehammer
ARM : High Steel Bomb Fry Pan > Deepgold Rail Fry Pan > Dwarven Mythril Alembic
GSM : Islewolf Rings > Dwarven Mythril Ring
LTW : Gaganaskin Belts > Smilodonskin Ring > Swallowskin Tool/Surv belt
WVR : Ruby Cotton > Apron > Pixie Cotton Sash > Dwarven Cotton Bandana
ALC : Gyuki Leather Grimoire/Codex > Smilodonskin > Dwarven Mythril Books
CUL : Ref to > https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Seafood
Just do whichever fish are cheap
Ensure you upkeep Bacon Broth + Tinker's Calm during desynth```Much like prev expacs, i believe it'll take a few weeks? 7? I forget. But iirc the recommendation is to mix eden gear worh crystarium
twilit arch
with the desynth changes there's really no point in going for low level stuff
stable herald
Oh. I don't know what tinker's calm is.. gotta look that up
twilit arch

onyx kiln
you mean the new eden stuff right?
green grail
10 minute pot with a huge buff to desynth leveling
stable herald
Yes
onyx kiln
figured
stable herald
Oh. Guess im levelling ALC?
rare sable
Alc is good start
stable herald
There was a guide a while back on loot priorities but since Eden seems to giv diff drops..
rare sable
Since it make the most base mats
stable herald
I'm 70 on all now, but I thought of saving my custom deliveries for getting my DoLs to 80 since the beast tribe has been givin kinda meh exp imo
onyx kiln
which gear is the better on the more individuell stats between the deep shadow and nier stuff?
stable herald
Deep shadow, and augmented deep
whole wasp
6010 tomestone for everything including weapon
rare sable
70+ beast tribe is the qitari
stable herald
Yeah. But the Qitari gives, what a level per 3 quests?
onyx kiln
don't you need something from the savage variants to get weapons usually?
rare sable
Hmmm (no idea since I'm maxed at everything)
stable herald
What did you do to level them?
whole wasp
armor/accessories upgrade item can be got from 24man raids and hunts
robust magnet
Crafters just do GC turn ins till you can do Ishgard turn ins
rare sable
Fishing cat/flower girl plate is my bff
stable herald
Also gotta do all the DoH quests for HW
robust magnet
Gatherers Leves and GC turn ins
twilit arch
beast tribes in general aren't the "quickest" way to level
stable herald
The HW crafter slog is gonna bankrupt me isn't it
twilit arch
since you're limited to 3 dailies per day
but they are -free-
and generally take like 10mins to do so they're still worth doing while leveling
stable herald
Yeah. Was thinkin of using it just for my FSH cz I cant tolerate FSH leves
Tho I hear Ocean fishin is fast?
As a DoH at 70, with hand king gear, I should be able to HQ all the necessary items for the story quests for HW expac, right?
I've not delved into the horror that is the HW DoH quests yet since I don't think I'll be able to afford most of em
twilit arch
should
stable herald
Like buying mats etc
rare sable
Hand king last me till 80
stable herald
:O
whole wasp
altho that means leveling to 80 without manipulation
stable herald
Wow trained eye looks like it'll just brute force everythong
whole wasp
yea, it makes custom deliveries a cinch
stable herald
I could just slam out ishgard deliveries?
gritty oracle
When will people not have to spoiler tag e8 anymore? I'm not even close to finishing shb and I'm afraid I'll get spoiled the moment spoiler tags stop being enforced.
stable herald
HW crafting quests are quite resource-intensive, yes?
whole wasp
next maintenance so tuesday
gritty oracle
oof
whole wasp
other than having to get the master recipe book, not really.
onyx kiln
where do i get lightweight tomestones?
stable herald
The plan is to just get a shopping list of all the items I need, crafting/buying everything, then I just blast em out
whole wasp
lightweight tomestone should be from trading 4 eden4 normal swords to the vendor in eulmore
eden relic exchange
onyx kiln
okay
robust magnet
Is there a reason my desynth won't go past 51.00?
twilit arch
what are you desynthing
robust magnet
fish from ocean fishing
robust magnet
ahh
stable herald
Kael, where did you get that info for desynth? Trying to save your message but Im on mobile
twilit arch
from the balance
gritty oracle
what is desynth? Is it important to max out?
twilit arch
desynth is a skill that lets crafters break down items
into materials/crystals
its not that important to max out, its basically just another option for old gear you don't need
gritty oracle
Oh, thanks!
stable herald
Cool. Thanks

oblique haven
hi, im quite new to the game, i chosed the conjurer class im lvl 31 atm and saw online that i could go to white mage but the quest to do so doesnt appear at conjurer guild, is something im missing? sorry for the noobness
whole wasp
if you look at the top left corner
under the 
there should be a 
follow that quest to do your class quests and you should get your white mage quest
rich bay
@oblique haven
Did you have completed the level 20 MSQ Sylph Management?
You need to compelte that MSQ too besides the level 30 class quest.
carmine panther
Henlo! sorry for interupting a chat, can I ask for some help to clear "The Crown of the Immaculate"? I've been waiting for 30 m, still in queue..
junior yacht
you also have to complete the Main Story Quest titled "Sylph Management"
rich bay
@carmine panther, make a party finder, it gets filled up fast if you say new player bonus. (Players want Phantasmorgia now to trade for new crafter mats.)
oblique haven
ohhhh thanks i havent got sylph management quest, will keep clearing the main quest then
thanks a lot ❤️
carmine panther
Thanks a lot, will give it a try!
twilit arch
crown doesnt reward phanta

Or just continue waiting

Should be people entering trial daily
And get sucked into filling your queue

Ah, yes. Maybe i was confused with the EX one.
stable herald
Oh. What crafter mats are on offer now?
rare sable
On offer as in high selling? The new phantasma mats
(Price varies per server so check your MB)
Also sublime solution
stable herald
Phantasma is the one for deep shadow yes?
twilit arch
ya
rich bay
Sublime solution doesn't sell that well atm, afaik.
rare sable
Its 20k each in zalera
stable herald
These new mats, can we use em for making the new gear?
rare sable
Since facet are selling again
twilit arch
ya
stable herald
Sorry, away from PC atm
twilit arch
neo ishgardian uses the new phanta mats
rich bay
The grade 3 pots also use the phanta mats.
rich bay
I can craft the gear myself, but for me it is mostly a mix.
rare sable
Depends on how serious/often I use them
robust magnet
So I found the build on the Balance for melds, is it fine to not follow it to a T? cuz im already at crafter req and don't feel like blowing up all my melds just to try and place them in another order.
twilit arch
the balance melds are a starting point
robust magnet
currently sitting at 2488 Crafts
W/o facet offhand, and some normal meld spots still open
rare sable
Its perfectly fine
Balance rotation is just... guide really
You can use them as example and tweak it to fit your stats
robust magnet
ok.
leaden ginkgo
Hi, I was wondering what I should aim for for retainer gear - they're past level 50 and I keep getting the notification that if they had better gear they could get better items. They're gatherer retainers (min/BTN) I can craft myself, I just want to know what I should craft
stable herald
I mean, I just slap on whatever leftovers I used
If above 50, you can just grab some gear from Moogle tribe
Iirc*
twilit arch
just drop them in whatever gear is around their level
that message pretty much won't go away until you get them into swallowskin (lvl80)
and even then its a -chance- at better items, since it sounds like you're doing quick ventures with them
rich bay
For battle retainers a higher average item level gives more loot. (Hunting and quick ventures.)
rich flume
Hey everyone, is the valentines event still up ? I wanted to play the game again to get the costume
leaden ginkgo
Okay. I see.
And yeah I've been doing quick ventures since I don't need them to gather stuff for me currently
Thank you!
twilit arch
no its ended @rich flume
rich flume
ah ok thnaks
hoary storm
Should I get phantasma gear since the cap was removed?
twilit arch
if you need the ilvl boost/want to gear out alts
hoary storm
My highest is 455 right now
sullen trail
i have two combat retainers that are both warriors, would it be more efficient to change one of their jobs to a different class?
in terms of like getting gear for them, mainly
twilit arch
you mean from like quick ventures?
@hoary storm 455 is fine for eden verse normal, but if you want to do savage/ex then you'd definitely want higher ilvl
sullen trail
well, would it be easier for me to gear them up if i werent having to get duplicates to gear each one
and is it even worth it
twilit arch
wouldnt really be that much easier to gear if they weren't duplicate
since you're going to need two sets of whatever gear you're putting them in
sullen trail
i would but lets say i switched one to whm
i could use leftover edengrace gear from my war and whm to gear them
rather than edengrace and then like my leftover facet gear with them both being warriors
twilit arch
sure that works, but in the end it doesn't really matter
sullen trail
thats what im wondering, i take it the boost isnt that great once they have 80 gear?
twilit arch
there's a "cap" on how much ilvl they need for the "if your retainer had better gear, you have a better chance a good items" or whatever, after that point the ilvl is moot
and its fairly low ish ilvl requirement, so its not like you need to constantly update their gear
you could leave them in edengate gear for now and should be fine
onyx kiln
what do cleave means in terms of this game?
open coral
Any ability that hits more than one target.
twilit arch
in a zone
latent sluice
Outside of the Ixali.... I can use the ARR beast tribes to get exp for classes in the 40s, yes?
twilit arch
generally, cleaves are attacks that are going to hit an area relatively to the boss itself
so like if the boss does an attack infront of itself that would hit any and all targets that is there, that's a cleave
but if the boss does an attack that hits everyone, regardless of where they are, that's an AoE attack
raven mason
i tried buying something on the mog station and keep getting error i2501 when trying to select a payment option
twilit arch
are you using a vpn?
twilit arch
hm, can try using a different browser
but the problem with i2501 is that its a very broad error, with vpns being one of the triggers, it can be a bit hard to help diagnose . If turning it off, and using a different browser doesn't work, you can try waiting a day and trying again (this sometimes fixes it).
otherwise, gotta contact support
raven mason
i tried internet explorer, still get it, i'll try contacting support
latent sluice
perhaps it's an adblocker or scriptblocker thing?
robust magnet
try chrome
twilit arch
@latent sluice ya, beast tribes for combat start at 41 iirc. they're not that amazing for exp though since the dailies don't have scaling xp like the expansions dailies do
latent sluice
So do them at 41 and they might be worth it? Idk. I just want something to do while raising my dps classes I neglected
robust magnet
How do you get the Predurable tomestone?
PotD can help with that if you don't mind mindless grinding
twilit arch
41 is for the first tribe
stable herald
I dunoe. Dps queuing has been p fast these few days
I'd do them in netween waiting
Between*
twilit arch
they do span between 41-45 with higher dailies being unlocked as you increase rep with them
twilit arch
so they're fine to use til 50, just not the greatest xp compared to expansion beast tribes
is all
raven mason
tried chrome with all my extensions turned off still doesn't work 😦
twilit arch
@robust magnet you need 7xBlade of Golden Antiquity or do Eden's Verse: Furor (Savage) to get it

This might be a silly question but what are good ways to scout people out for a free company in-game? I formed mine recently and since the weekend hit I figured I'd do a proper drive
rough anchor
When as a GNB i apply the two DOTs while under effect of no mercy, does the 20% damage buff affect all ticks or just the ones that happen during no mercy’s duration
strong citrus
@outer star The FFXIV Recruiter Discord is usually the place I recommend
junior yacht
so any effect that was present at the start of something with a long duration like a DoT carries over until the end
strong citrus
leaden ginkgo
Debuffs as well
strong citrus
There are also recruitment on this discord #494379215420915712 #603040765723148289 etc

Yeah but that's a dedicated discord so I feel most new players won't even be aware of it

Quick Question, what is the best way to level retainers? Do I need to obtain the venture coins?

yes you need the venture coins

sudden cloak
ok, thank-you 🙂
leaden ginkgo
So do I need a gathering book to farm the new hidden 5.2 nodes? Couldn’t find where to buy it rip
outer star
But yeah recruitment, shouting might be situational per server, and since I'm in a relatively low pop one it might not be as effective
leaden ginkgo
Oo thank you xD
outer star
I'll poke around that one though!
leaden ginkgo
Just don't be the guy that sends tells to randoms without tags, I was in the inn the other night farming lakshmi and a pc named Windows Vista immediately shoots me an invite as soon as I left the instance, it was kinda creepy
You might get a few that way but I guarantee you they'll either not be great or they'll leave at some point
strong citrus
Yeah that's a huge annoyance.
My alts get unsolicited invites all the time.
Just wanna play the game in peace.
outer star
Why would I send invites without even bothering chat them up? Noone's gonna accept like that
I want to make friends with these people after all rofl
leaden ginkgo
People just want numbers in their 5 person group of fc members so it looks better and they get stuff cuz usually it's a group of friends that keep to themselves who lead
outer star
I know those types of groups, honestly it's exactly why I formed my own rather than gamble joining another one
Then again I was on balmung for five years so
leaden ginkgo
I was on Balmung for like a month and a half and I hated it, since ul'dah was SO crowded I couldn't do anything on my ps4 with Pugilist, but that's off topic so
raven mason
is there a support phone number i can call about the i2501 error?
outer star
Not to mention the perma-congestion made seeing new players impossible, which is why I asked around here XD I was afraid the idea of joining a new FC would scare people too
raven mason
thanks i'm na, looks like its from 9am pacific so i'll have to wait a little bit b4 i call
outer star
Oh gameplay related question this time, has the new low level lure replaced the old ones altogether? Does it work for all the fish?
whole wasp
it works for all the fish but because it works for all the fish
it makes getting specific fish harder so up to you

Currently doing Anima weapon and on the Singing Clusters step. Can I still accept the daily and weekly quests for Singing Clusters after I finish that step?

I think so, yeah
I see them in idyllshire constantly and I have a pld weapon at the light farm

you can do ocean fishing at lvl 1 so you're good to go @tardy patio

Yeah, that hung me up for a long time when I first tried to do one of the housing district quests... and I didn't have a whole Discord of people to tell me what to do back then. 😄
raven mason
ok now i have one that is leves of bentbranch but it won't let me see where it is on the map
leaden ginkgo
Go to your journal and start the Levequest
Leves require that you manually activate them but they should show you on the map in a green circle, although it's been almost a year since I did the ones that require a quest to start
open coral
Are you in Bentbranch?
That's the important bit.
If so, there should be a green circle on your map somewhere nearby.
raven mason
i'm in brentbranch but there's no green circle and everytime i click on it in the journal it tells me can't open map
it says speak with tiereny
twilit arch
at the bottom of the quest journal, there should be a section for levequests, do you have one there?
open coral
So you need to speak with that NPC
twilit arch
because "leves of bentbranch" has you complete a leve to complete the quest itself
stray saffron
accept the levequest from the levemete, then the levequest will tell you where to go
open coral
If it tells you to speak with an NPC, you need to locate that NPC before anything else can happen.

I completed my full hunting log and all quests around here but there's nothing else?
Command missions I believe
stray saffron
you have to level your squadron
twilit arch
You need to raise up your squadron to get 1st LT and Captain
stray saffron
the next couple rankups come from flagged missions, and then, yeah, you have to do some command missions as well
twilit arch
1st LT simply requires you to complete the lvl 40 flagged mission, Captain requires you to do 5 different dungeons with your squadron plus a lvl 50 flagged mission
leaden ginkgo
how do I unlock squadrons?

When I restart my computer, I always have to open up my Logitech software and change the profile there, otherwise I have dead keybinds.

Actually. I don't even change the profile. The profile is already active. It's odd, but I have to click my um.. correct "color" profile.
Currently not at my desktop to give you a breakdown, but it's definitely somewhere in there. Make sure the profile is set to persistent, and maybe uncheck game profile. Yknow, the setting that supposedly turns the right profile on when it detects the corresponding game?

basically the middle of 4.0 Dead

So still a decent amount away
Guess I’ll ask someone from my FC to act as a courier
gritty oracle
@rancid vector I recommend buying and augmenting Ironworks gear for your class first, then other classes you think you will be playing. A full augmented set can cost some 3-4k poetics, so you won't run out of stuff to spend poetics on anytime soon. I can walk you through the process if you wish.
rancid vector
yeah i was not sure about augmenting gear
I'm playing a white mage so i bought the skyrat armour because the stats seemed better than ironworks
but mostly i am just clueless about armour.
gritty oracle
Okay, so first make sure you have the whole (unaugmented) set, complete with weapon. Then buy 7 carbontwine and 4 carboncoat because back in ARR both belt and weapon used carboncoat. Then go to uuuuugh
Gimme a sec

So if you zoom in on the map after you're there, you'll see a trader (sack icon with a circle) icon. Go there and you'll meet Drake Whatever, Replica Vendor. Go to him and choose "Ironworks Augment"
You'll have to trade in your Ironworks gear and the carbontwine/coat.
There's also a relic weapon quest there if you're masochistic enough to want it. Most of them you can get through other sources anyways, at least I did with the elfin bow, but I digress.

Having toruble figuring out the token system for that
twilit arch
you buy 10x Rowena's Tokens (Poetics) (7 if you're a paladin), and 1 Encrypted Tomestone from the poetics vendor
they should both be under the Poetics (Other) section
then trade those to the npc next to the poetics vendor

1-15 just craft 1 of everything from your crafting log using the npc vendor materials
and do your class quests
you don't really have the stats for HQ and its not really too worth it
you just use the first time craft bonus

@leaden ginkgo you can't turn an FC house into a personal house and vice versa
leaden ginkgo
so you mean that
it can not be freed to be aquired again with desired price?
idk if i am making clear what i mea
slate arrow
You can transfer to it by having a friend transfer out the FC house and then you immediately transfer to the large plot but that involves max price gil
As well as owning a private plot
twilit arch
there is no way to safely sell a relinquished plot
it goes onto a hidden timer and a specific price point once the plot is relinquished
slate arrow
^
twilit arch
the only way to sell a house, realistically, is to sell a free company house
since you can just transfer fc leadership
royal mango
that's really annoying. but thank you @tender estuary I never would have thought of that

Alternatively, you can let the house expire and you'll get the minimum price of the plot back in gil

Should I "extract materia" from all the trash items when leveling? I'm currently level 21. I'm not sure what the materia does or if it's worth it.

but no, you can't buy a plot as soon as it's available, only transfer.
leaden ginkgo
The problem is that the asking for the building is many times higher than the game worth for it
hmm fair enough
Thank you for your time
slate arrow
and the price is always max value, with random devaluation timers until a month has passed
obsidian patio
Not much reason not to, and sometimes the low level materia can be worth a decent amount on the marketboard due to one of the steps for the zodiac relic
twilit arch
well since you no longer lose items now from getting materia from the gear, you can safely extract if you like. plus people might be working on ARR relic, so the marketboard prices might be decent
iron sundial
Oh, okay. Should I just socket these materia in gear that allows it? Since they're cheap and seem like minor buffs anyway?

You can if you want, it is a 100% retrieval but personally wouldn't bother

Is that giant structure I see in the distance from North Shroud the fallen moon? Or something else? Looks like it was part of the Death Star if the death star was white stone.
