leaden ginkgo
#

So I think I just bought a plush that just doesn't have a working code

left moth
#

if got from se store check the order details for a reissued code

#

if got from a 3rd party you're screwed

#

se support may or may not issue something if can show proof of purchase

leaden ginkgo
#

well I have a receipt and everything I just didnt buy it online

unreal badge
#

So my friend bought me the ARR story skip and he was thinking I could get started right away at level 30 with astrologian

#

but I can't get into foundation

#

do I have to buy a level boost or are we missing something?

narrow parcel
#

Keep playing until you enter Ishgard via the MSQ

#

The story skip will put you right at the start of HW so you still have like a quest or two to do

proud willow
#

The first quest of HW will bring you into Foundation

unreal badge
#

But then....

narrow parcel
#

Get to level 50 then :p

whole wasp
#

the first quest of AST also has a level 50 level requirement

proud willow
#

Oh you got the story skip but no level boost

unreal badge
#

ya

whole wasp
#

what level are you?

unreal badge
#

1

proud willow
#

You will have to level up a class before you can continue the story

narrow parcel
#

Or buy a level boost if you want

proud willow
#

and enter Foundation

leaden ginkgo
#

so I was just given a bad code only because I bought it in person and not online

#

nice

warped nest
#

@unreal badge, open up your Duty Finder

#

look at the dungeons

unreal badge
#

YEAH?

warped nest
#

actually, you can't you are lvl 1

unreal badge
#

well he just bought me a level 70 white mage

#

so

#

that solves it

warped nest
#

ok

#

then my advice for you is

#

remove all skills from your hotbar, find a striking dummy (summerford farm, south), open Action and Trait window, add skills back to your hotbar as you use them on yourself and or the dummy

#

remember to read tooltip

#

have fun

unreal badge
#

Thanks

whole wasp
#

same goes for AST too when you unlock it since it starts at 30

unreal badge
#

started this game because my bf wanted me to so it'll be fun

warped nest
#

feel free to drop by and ask any questions you have

whole wasp
#

Good luck have fun!

warped nest
#

more follow up (?) tip: if you are more comfortable with controller, this game works very well with it

leaden ginkgo
#

Wait story skip and level boost are separate? LOL

narrow parcel
#

Yep

whole wasp
#

yep

leaden ginkgo
#

That's so scummy wearycarby

whole wasp
#

since there so many jobs and only 1 MSQ

random warren
#

not really

#

it lets people choose

#

and ironically its still cheaper than a entire level boost in WoW which is £49

whole wasp
#

does WoW have MSQ?

random warren
#

no but still £49 for 109 levels is yikes

whole wasp
#

or its just attunement quests to unlock the various raids?

leaden ginkgo
#

I mean... What's the point in skipping story if you'll have to grind all the way to 50

random warren
#

AAA games are cheaper than that

leaden ginkgo
#

It's really dumb and scummy

random warren
#

its not

whole wasp
#

🤷

random warren
#

it makes it absolutely clear what each boost does on the store

#

it makes no effort to mask anything

#

and even if it was 1 boost alone it'd just be £37 like they are combined now

leaden ginkgo
#

The effort is to make you buy both wearycarby

random warren
#

you do realise itd be the same damn price if they were 1 sole thing yeah?

#

they wouldn't suddenly just offer a 2 in 1 boost for £18.50

#

and theres no make at all

#

nobody has a damn gun to your head

leaden ginkgo
#

If you agree that's fine, but for me it's abominable wearycarby

random warren
#

you're free to think that but don't think it'd be cheaper if it was 1 sole boost

#

because it wouldnt be

#

they'd either combine the price or it'd be £30 at most

twilit arch
random warren
#

and yeah my bad

twilit arch
#

whine about it there or in #rants

spiral ridge
#

is there any good website for shadowbringers treasure maps? i cant find this one.

#

leaden ginkgo
#

Can lvl 60 savage content be unsynced

random warren
#

yes

twilit arch
#

make sure you're on G-11 and not G-12 @spiral ridge

#

should be C for lakeland

spiral ridge
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

thanks!!!!!

leaden ginkgo
#

Mk, I wanted to try and get these bard gloves but I wasn’t sure if I had to actually learn the fight in all of its entirety

spiral ridge
#

:))

iron oracle
#

Is ff14 on steam and on pc different?

whole wasp
#

in game, its exaclty the same

twilit arch
#

they're two different license that fill the same slot, but beyond that they're the same functionally

random warren
#

same game but registration licenses are different

whole wasp
#

outside of the game, theres steam wallet, seperate sales etc

iron oracle
#

Ty

odd bobcat
#

do you guys mix skills from different roles?

strange summit
#

For the fury’s fourteen do I need to use arms length?

slate arrow
#

no and no

whole wasp
#

not sure what you mean shida, cross-class skills no longer exists, only shared role actions

strange summit
#

For some reason I’m still dying even though I use hollowed ground.

whole wasp
#

so all casters have the same set, all healers have the same set etc

leaden ginkgo
#

Is the savage content doable for Alexander blind? Lmfao

slate arrow
#

Hallowed Ground does not prevent instant death from being inflicted

#

it only prevents most regular attacks from dealing damage

strange summit
#

What seems to be the problem then? Everyone is in their position and I’m in front of Ramu yet we’re still wiping

rugged flicker
#

Remind me the text command for dig again?

slate arrow
#

/ac dig

rugged flicker
#

None of the websites with text commands listed includes that among them

slate arrow
#

then it probably doesn't exist as a command

#

i dunno

rugged flicker
#

No it does work.

#

But it's not listed in the macro list either.

warped nest
#

@rugged flicker open action and trait window

#

look in General

#

oh

#

it worked

#

nvm

rugged flicker
#

But it's not listed anywhere.

warped nest
#

it is inside /Action

#

/Action probably doesn't have an exhaustive list

#

cuz it is basically ALL clickable button

odd bobcat
#

ohh

#

Also the only way i can get whistle for my cute chochocobo is from company?

#

never mind

#

IS FREE

#

But can i disable chocobo music?

twilit arch
#

system config > audio > untick "play music when mounted"

nimble holly
raw solstice
#

don't really worry too much about melding materia to leveling gear in general, unless you specifically need to meet certain thresholds for craftsmanship/cp for something you wanna make

nimble holly
#

no its for a quest and it wont let me meld all my materia onto it, im assuming its too high level but i need to know which materia actaulyl work

warped nest
#

what quest?

nimble holly
#

BSM level 15/20 quest

warped nest
#

specifically what did the quest say

nimble holly
#

deliver a materia enhanced cross pein hammer

warped nest
#

look for craftsman on the marketboard, it is blue color

twilit arch
#

it doesn't matter what type of materia is melded to it

#

just find a cheap grade 1 to use

warped nest
#

just use anything that's a I or a II

nimble holly
#

ah aht worked, thanks, jstu had to use a level 1 materia

warped nest
#

it won't take a VI

#

low level equipment cannot meld high level materia

odd bobcat
#

So how good is chochocobo to farm with alt jobs?

rare sable
#

I would say, take it out everytime you do overworld content, but no need to specifically raise it (unless your fc have a stable and members regulary feed them)

odd bobcat
#

Can you raise chochocobos?

#

Can you reset his stats?

rare sable
#

Yes to both

odd bobcat
#

@rare sable im sorry i miss type

#

I dont know what raise means

#

"Raise"

rare sable
#

@odd bobcat raise as in, like battle class; you can go out to grind exp for your chocobo and they can level up (and have more points for their skill tree)

whole wasp
#

if your chocobro's hp reaches zero, you can resummon them again if its the healer's raise

leaden ginkgo
#

So I’m looking to power level my character to 80 tonight, (Dragoon lvl 77) any tips of the best way to go about it?

whole wasp
#

not much you can do other than the usual

#

queue for highest dungeons. do beast tribe(pixie) and FATEs while queueing

#

do roulettes as well

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay, thank you c:

nimble holly
#

where do i go to change PVP actions/skills?

hot eagle
#

on wolves' den pier u can work on your pvp hotbar/chotbar

#

tp to it if u are atuned allrdy or use the ferry from moraby drydocks

wheat kettle
#

hello ! I just finished MSQ - how do I find a group to do eden's gate with? no one is joining duty finder QQ

little swift
#

Normal mode? Try queuing during prime hours of your data center. Its in normal raid roulette

#

For savage put up a party finder

wheat kettle
#

Yeah just normal mode ><

#

Okie dokies thank you!

little swift
#

Yeah it's a little late on na

thorn yoke
#

How do you rank up in Grand company?

jaunty jay
#

you buy the rank with grand company seals, which you get from that hunting log and fates. when your level is high enough you can sell old gear (not white) to them for seals

leaden ginkgo
#

So I’m on Born Again Anima, and my weapon said “shows vague signs of ...etc” does that mean I can go to another place and farm light or do I have to do it in some order? Lol

#

Also the guide said 2,000 light but comments said 1,000 light >_>

oak ice
#

Light farming is just about doing content over, and over, and over, and over again until you get to 2000 points

#

Doesn't matter what you do, so pick what's the quickest

#

If you're solo, Brayflox hard, if you have a group or are willing to make one, A9S

leaden ginkgo
#

Hmm okay ty lol some comments and guides are all over or a old guess of how long and what to do takes

oak ice
#

The comments about 1000 light was just bullshitting, it has always been 2000

proud willow
#

A9S is I think 13 total runs or so

#

And with a full party, each run only takes 2-3 minutes

leaden ginkgo
#

Ahh okay! I’ll have to try them both out tysm

#

Do you know an estimate of how many solo runs it would take for the dng 0.0

proud willow
#

Sorry, I don't know

warped nest
#

A9S is miles better

oak ice
#

Pretty sure it's 24 points without bonus for 42 total runs

warped nest
#

42 runs, avg around 15-20 mins?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah but like finding a group seems meh since I’m sure there aren’t a lot or people who want to do that haha

oak ice
#

Brayflox hard at 80 takes like 5 minutes

warped nest
#

Ahhh

oak ice
#

Only need to equip the anima weapon for the last boss

leaden ginkgo
#

Oo

warped nest
#

You can advertise A9S as get best lvl 60 accessories for GNB/DNC

oak ice
#

Or just advertise it as light farm, lots of people still need it

warped nest
#

I keep forgetting that we are already in ShB

leaden ginkgo
#

😂

warped nest
#

In this case, solo dungeon runs might be better than A1S

#

A9S still the best though

leaden ginkgo
#

Won’t hurt to try it seems xD there is always the second option lol

iron oracle
#

for raid loot is it one per stage again? for e5 and up

raw solstice
#

normal mode: one token per floor per week. Savage: one chance at loot per floor per week, whether you win something or not, with number of coffers appearing depending on number of people with first clear for the floor per week

sonic crane
#

It's the same as last tier, you can roll once a week but you can roll for everything.

raw solstice
#

you can win everything or nothing for each savage clear but only one try each week for each instance

#

you always get a page though, one per week, assuming you don't skip any floors (or have full inventory that prevents the direct drop into your inventory)

warped nest
#

If you skipped to a higher floor, the game take it as forfeiting the lower floors for the week

#

So if you clear E7S on reset day to help out a friend, your E5S/E6S roll attempts for that week are gone. You have to wait for another week.

raw solstice
#

(can't even get weekly pages for 5 or for 6 from the above scenario)

warped nest
#

Oh yeah

timber spindle
#

Hello guys, is there a DPS meter for FFXIV

raw solstice
#

3rd party and technically against ToS (but more of a don't ask don't tell and they dont' care about it) but people mostly use Advanced Combat Tracker

granite bluff
#

No, people do often use Parsers but yeh it’s against tos

#

Like they know we use them but just being toxic it’s really punished GWseremePeepoThink

timber spindle
#

what?

#

is it punished or not?

narrow parcel
#

Only if you talk about it in game mostly

raw solstice
#

just don't mention it in-game and zero punishement at all

granite bluff
#

Yeh

timber spindle
#

okay, well

raw solstice
#

if you mention it with people you trust only in-game it's fine too

timber spindle
#

is it hard to install?

#

is ACT the best one or?

raw solstice
#

it's not too bad, just a few specific things to take note of (unblock files when you download, run as admin, allow through firewall)

granite bluff
#

Nah not hard and yes act it’s what’s used most

timber spindle
#

okay greatr

raw solstice
#

advanced combat tracker is really the only up-to-date and used one

timber spindle
#

okay i see

granite bluff
#

Firewall it’s most for posting parser if you just want to run to optimize rotation then I don’t think you need it (to go trough firewall)just look up for the HDU you like

timber spindle
#

because i really wanna see if i am doing a good job in my dungeons etc

#

thanks for the help

raw solstice
#

I don't quite get that last comment about firewall, ACT uses network data so if you want accurate data you have to whitelist ACT through your firewall

timber spindle
#

i have to whitelist the app?

raw solstice
#

it's generally a recommended thing yes to get more accurate numbers

#

from a purely rotational standpoint it's not a big deal but if you want to upload/rank against other parses it's an important step

#

and certain tools for analysis might not work as well without network parsing

granite bluff
#

Yeh short answer is yes aside little details I think new version of ACT even shows you when GCD and oGCDs are up right?

hard fern
#

If I try the free trial with the square enix launcher and not on steam, can I buy the game on steam after the trial and continue where I left off please?

granite bluff
#

Im not sure

#

Don’t think so Because each one has a different key like ps4 pc keys

#

Don’t know on which one the square is label

#

Should check your account on Mog station to see what key it’s the one you have

#

So you don’t end up buying something that you might not need

#

@winged cobalt do you know by any chance

#

Cuz I’m not sure GWseremePeepoThink

winged cobalt
#

if you use SE Store you cannot use Steam Launcher for FFXIV

#

and visa versa

#

the accounts would be entirely different accounts

granite bluff
#

Dank so it is different keys

raw solstice
#

trial -> full version is a bit more flexible

#

it's only full version that starts that incompatible bit

winged cobalt
#

^

granite bluff
#

Didn’t even knew and been playin since 2.0 haha

hard fern
#

thanks everyone

gritty oracle
#

What's the fastest way to level dol? Leves?

obsidian patio
#

Along with collectables past level 50, yeah.

#

if you're a fisher then ocean fishing is very good to do.

#

I heard of people in the lower levels getting multiple levels per boat

gritty oracle
#

Do I have to do fishing if I want to be an omnicrafter?

slate arrow
#

well no but yes since there's one aethersand you can only get as a fisher (if you don't want to spend an absurd number of white gatherer scrips)

gritty oracle
#

Oof

warped nest
#

You can just skip fisher, and solve the sand problem with the power of gils

twin kelp
#

What does each stat do for gatherers?

hot eagle
#

gathering if u even can gather it, perception is for high quality chance

obsidian patio
#

Gathering = higher success rate
Perception = increased chance of HQ items up to a natural cap of 15% (skills/node bonuses can boost this)
GP = your resource for your skills

twin kelp
#

exactly what i was looking for ty

leaden ginkgo
#

So my anima message said hardened, then it said sturdy but that seems backwards to me lol

twin kelp
#

Is there an easy way to keep up with gear on my gatherer?

#

I'm 25 now

obsidian patio
#

not particularly, just buy new vendor sets ever 4-5 levels or so until 50.

twin kelp
#

which vendors?

obsidian patio
#

the gear vendors in the main city-states have a majority of the gear from 1-50

twin kelp
#

oh okay! I'll look there

obsidian patio
#

@leaden ginkgo if you were doing the same duty then that means the bonus window changed and that duty is no longer on bonus

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh, so am I on sturdy now then the next rank would be stalwart?

#

Because I did all the other ranks 0.0

warped nest
#

Sturdy and Stalwart are just adjectives/nouns telling you how many light you are getting

#

They aren't ranks

obsidian patio
#
Vague      4
Meagre      8
Vigorous  16
Robust      24
Sturdy      48
Hardened  64
Stalwart  96
Rune      200
Anima / Nigh unyielding    2000
#

estimated light amounts from the old anima live thread

warped nest
#

How do one get Rune?

obsidian patio
#

runes are the things that light up

warped nest
#

Lololol

obsidian patio
#

as a way to track

warped nest
#

Yes

#

I had a brain fart

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh okay, so how do I even know when Im done wtf lol

warped nest
#

Use your Anima glass

#

Key item

obsidian patio
#

When all 10 runes are glowing a lot

warped nest
#

Take a screenshot of the UI

obsidian patio
#

Also when you get the Nigh Unyielding text

leaden ginkgo
#

Ohhh omg >_< I didn’t even know I had this

obsidian patio
#

error i2501 is a general catch-all error. It can also be caused by a VPN, unstable connection, and too many failed attempts

#

I'd contact support then.

leaden ginkgo
#

Man I wish I knew I had to track the points

#

Rip

wanton lintel
#

How do I start my hunting log on hw? I did it all in ARR with my bard

#

But in the log it shows nothing afterwards

slate arrow
#

there's no hunting log after A Realm Reborn

#

Hunts in general have effectively replaced the log after ARR, according to the development team.

#

(To unlock hunts in the first place, you need to do some progression with your grand company.)

wanton lintel
#

I see

#

How can I tell where I am at on my gc before I can unlock hunts

#

I remember I was trying to do them but got stuck on some extreme version of a boss raid

#

Which was part of getting to unlocking the Hunt

#

So I gave up

fresh lodge
#

None of the GC stuff requires doing any Extreme or Raid content

wanton lintel
#

Hmm I’ll have to look into it again

#

So I just got empyreal arrow for bard do I replace a previous skill with it

obsidian patio
#

nope

#

You use it whenever it's up

wanton lintel
#

Is it good

obsidian patio
#

at level 68 it gives a proc for the song you're currently using

#

Also it's free damage

wanton lintel
#

What’s a proc

slate arrow
#

term used to denote when RNG activates something

obsidian wren
#

It fills up one of the charges on your job gauge when using a song

slate arrow
#

in this case, proc refers to reperitoir

rare jetty
#

Hey, wanna change race, at which lvl do you get a free fantasia ?? (I heard you get one further into the msq)

hot eagle
#

after the lvl50 msq with the duty the praetorium which is the end of base arr without patches

twin kelp
#

Is there like miner job quests i should be doing as i level?

obsidian patio
#

yes they're back at the miner's guild in ul'dah

twin kelp
#

glad i asked lol

obsidian patio
#

past level 50 a few of them will unlock traits and a skill IIRC

fresh lodge
#

70 unlocks the GP regen trait

hot eagle
#

gathering jobquests give a lot exp so its worth to do them for that and they give some free gear too, miner is in uldah like wynne allrdy said, botanist in gridania and fisher in limsa

obsidian wren
#

Jobquests for doh/dol give over a full level if you do them as you unlock them afaik

wanton lintel
#

Are the hunts worth it?

leaden ginkgo
#

Forgot where I can use chocobo feathers

obsidian wren
#

Calamity salvager

#

And yea I'd say so

#

Can get some glamour and minions/mounts

obsidian patio
#

Hunts can also be done to work towards getting upgrade materials for endgame gear

wanton lintel
#

I see

#

So they’re worth it really

wanton lintel
#

I forgot how do I edit this bar to show different actions with a controller

obsidian patio
#

use virtual mouse ( L1+R3 ) to drag actions to it.

wanton lintel
#

Oh yeah thanks

obsidian patio
#

they should all be at your grand company

#

it might be hiding under another quest at the base

wanton lintel
obsidian patio
#

it's gilding the bilious

#

You just need one more promotion

wanton lintel
#

How do I level up to chief serpent sergeant

obsidian patio
#

Have you completed your grand company hunting log?

wanton lintel
#

Yup

#

Wait

#

How do I check that

obsidian patio
#

hunting log > click the grand company icon

wanton lintel
obsidian patio
#

what does the personnel officer say when you try to get a promotion?

wanton lintel
#

You lack sufficient seals for promotion

fresh lodge
#

Then you need to get more seals

wanton lintel
#

Erm how do I do that

#

I forgot

obsidian patio
#

complete fates near your level.

whole wasp
#

from hunting logs, guildhest, FATEs etc

obsidian patio
#

also leveling roulette should give some as a daily reward

fresh lodge
#

Also levelling and Guidhest roulette gives you some

onyx kiln
#

anyone who knows if when ever the next part of the restoration project starts if there will still be job for crafters to do?

fresh lodge
#

Yes there will be

#

And it should be this week

wanton lintel
#

Where do I go see my guildhests, and levelling roulettes?

obsidian patio
#

duty finder in the first tab

wanton lintel
#

Says no duties to display under guildhests

#

Same for levequests

onyx kiln
#

you can also hand in weapons and gear with colored frames for some seals aswell

obsidian patio
#

You don't see Duty Roulette: Leveling or Duty Roulette: Guildhests in this part of the duty finder?

wanton lintel
#

Can I accidentally hand in equipped items too? I have loads to hand in do I need these?

obsidian patio
#

can't hand in equipped stuff AFAIK, but make sure to change the filter at the top to only show items that are not in your armoury

#

that way you can't accidentally turn in gear you may be using

wanton lintel
#

I see

#

Filter shows nothing if I do that lol

obsidian patio
#

Then you can sort through the armoury slots and put the gear you're not using into your inventory.

wanton lintel
#

Oh I can see the duty roulettes through that option

#

What do these icons mean and why are there two icons for each?

#

Sorry for the questions but I’m kinda overwhelmed by this game lol

#

Like I can see the middle one is money

#

But dunno what the first is I think the third is seals?

whole wasp
#

first one is EXP

#

third one is seals yup

#

the line underneath adventurer in need is the bonus you get if you join as tank role

obsidian patio
#

unlike the daily bonus you can get the adventurer in need bonus as many times in a day as you want

wanton lintel
#

I see

#

What is daily bonus anyway

slate arrow
#

the arrows next to the glowing EXP and Gil symbols

whole wasp
#

you get large bonus exp and gil once per day for that roulette

wanton lintel
#

How can I see this once a day bonus

ocean pivot
#

The once a day bonus is the first line. A blue arrow means there is a bonus but it depends on what duty you get.

wintry chasm
#

You can't see the actual bonus in numbers till you do the roulette

wanton lintel
#

It says reward already received for guildhests does that mean I’ve gotten the daily bonus

ocean pivot
#

Yes

wanton lintel
#

I don’t even know what the bonus reward was lol

ocean pivot
#

xp, money and seals probably

wanton lintel
#

So basically do guildhest once a day for the bonus?

#

Can’t get the bonus any other way?

whole wasp
#

ehh, its pretty tiny but yes, that bonus is daily

ocean pivot
#

You can still get the adventurer in need bonus, but iirc it's way lower than the daily bonus.

whole wasp
#

you get roulettes with better bonuses as you level

ocean pivot
#

When you unlock leveling roulette, it also gives seals and way more xp. You should unlock it around lvl 16 or so in the main story.

Levelling roulettes?

You currently only have "Duty Roulette: Guildhests", right? You will unlock more duty roulettes as you progress. One of these is "Duty Roulette: Leveling"

yup, you'll get alot more

Ive got the levelling one

what is the ealiest level you can be to do the isghard jobs and do them with some ease? remember needing a lot of skills to boost the quality and all

wanton lintel

Are the elite marks only completable in a group?

#

Hello guys, what is the fastest way or right way to level the alt job. I want to have caster with me so, I will be playing THM from 1 to 60

#

which i already have my main at 65

#

I am now at the start of Stormblood

wanton lintel
#

And where do I find these hunts I go the area but are they random or rare spawns? How would I know where they appear

#

I’ve accepted the marks

#

One says to go to south shroud but have no idea where in south shroud lol

onyx kiln
#

usually there are some people who shout out when there is a hunt train going on

#

but that is usually for the newer expansions

wanton lintel
#

So they are random spawns not guaranteed to be there

onyx kiln
#

They can spawn in everynow and then at different places and some people form groups to track each one in every zone down

fresh lodge
#

B ranks are solo able and always up

#

But you have to have the hunt bill to get rewards from killing it

little swift
#

B ranks respawn somewhere else on the map about 5 seconds after they're killed

Hey guys, Faerie crashed earlier but my friend had just left the dungeon at the end of SB and saw maybe two seconds of the next cutscene; now she's glitched, the journal still saying "Use the Duty Finder to enter the dungeon" still. We ran it again right after but the quest just isn't progressing. Does anyone have any experience with this?

@onyx kiln I don't follow

#

You're talking about Ishgard jobs and then talking about quality

#

Are you asking about the HW jobs like Dark Knight and Astro and stuff or are you talking about crafting?

rare sable
#

@tiffu thats weird.... never happen before, but maybe try canceling the quest then retake it?

#

And are you sure its the right dungeon and difficulty?

icy quiver
#

Yeah, I'm sure it's the correct dungeon and difficulty. We actually ran it twice, first unsynced, then synced. It's MSQ; I don't believe she can cancel it? She tried earlier.

rare sable
#

Like theres [sastasha] and [sastasha(hard)]

#

Which dungeon?

icy quiver

Last dungeon of Stormblood, Ala Mhigo. There's no way she has access to any other version of it.

rare sable
#

Are you sure shes still on there and not royal menagerie?

wintry chasm

#

It's a dungeon and trial back to back

icy quiver

She can't progress to unlocking Royal Menagerie. The inn doesn't have the replay for the cutscene that plays upon leaving the dungeon. I tried queing us for Royal Menagerie, she's definitely not there.

Here's a screenshot.

not to distract from this mystery but i have a quick question. is there some reason that Cure 3 can't be cast on NPC's? every time i target an npc and cast it, it casts on me instead

icy quiver

When the server dropped, she exited the game completely. But yeah, she also relogged again when we were trying this.

wintry chasm
#

Cure 3 is an aoe

icy quiver
#

SadBlob Alright, she's responding the current open ticket.

#

How do we contact a GM in game...?

thorn yoke

so does it only self cast and heal nearby allies or can i cast it on someone that's far away from me and it goes in their area?

You can move the PSN account your SE account is tied to but it's a headache and you have to buy the game again

Does Ten Chi Jin add much difficulty to Ninja? In general, does the class change dramatically from 62 to 70?

whole wasp

not too difficult but it switches up your rotations

tribal sand

It doesn't become Dragoon rigid, right?

since tcj's flexibility allow you to choose to suiton with it instead of hardcasting it normally

Ahh

nin still forever trapped by TA

#

by outside of that window, its pretty fluid

tribal sand
#

So it's still just TA whenever you can?

whole wasp
#

since TA window is longer now

#

yup TA every 60 seconds as much as you can

#

and dump all your skills in the 15 second window of TA

tribal sand
#

Should I be doing something to get TA more often? I'm just: maintaining huton, maintaining sf, dropping lightning, and running my combo otherwise. That sound right?

whole wasp
#

outside of it, dont overcap your ninki, dont drop huton

#

TA is on a hard CD so nothing much you can do job wise. it becomes fight based where you decide when to drop TA.

#

yea, that sounds right

tribal sand
#

Oh good. It felt fairly reasonable so I thought I might be being neglectful.

#

If 70 is similar, that's doable.

whole wasp
#

you can also choose to memorize an opener then adjust afterwards as the fight continues

#

to get into the rhytmn easily

tribal sand
#

Yeah, I know it's an opener heavy game which is why I felt guilty being looshish with NIN

#

Out of loosely related curiosity, my only 70s are SMN and MNK and my only 80 is DNC. Of those or the other DPS classes, are any significantly better up at 80? I feel like I never hear about how easy or difficult MCH is, in particular.

whole wasp
#

its fine. openers only really matter at 80

tribal sand
#

Oh, that's good.

#

im not very sure about that, i mostly play healer. have to ask one of the mentors

Sure, sorry, no worries at all.

not 100% sure on how it works exactly, but i think you might need to log out complete if you aren't

and then log in to get the game to update?

it was thinking it might be because my PSN email is different to my Enix account email

Hello, I'm downloading the game but for me the download is very slow. I have 500mb/s down but I'm only getting about 4MB/s while a friend of mine downloaded easily with 20MB/s. Is there something I can do to increase the speed?

pallid tide
#

Where do find rotations for collectable crafting?

hot eagle
#

@pallid tide crafting rotations change with your lvl and stats so we cant rly say that or that works if we dont know your stats/lvl u can try to make a rotation that works with your lvl and stats on https://ffxivteamcraft.com/simulator

pallid tide
#

thanks!

hot eagle
#

and here is a guide for ishgard restoration with macros and the infos what stats u need for them, wasnt sure for what u need a rotation normal collectible or ishgard stuff

sturdy mason
#

At around level 40, retainers seem to not get 1 level per hunt anymore. Is that supposed to be the case or am I doing something wrong?

#

Leveling them has really slowed down

silk summit
#

They won't always get a level from doing the latest hunt etc, no

hot eagle
#

its normal and later it will take even longer, same as when u level a class/job they need more exp to level on higher levels

sturdy mason
#

I think someone told me gear doesn't affect EXP so maybe nothing I can do to make it faster

hot eagle
#

fastest was to lvl retainer is send them on quick venture every hour when u are online and on the longer stuff when u logout

#

but costs more ventures and can be a pain to send them out every hour

pallid tide
#

Im trying to make collectables for Ishgard

tough wolf
#

What dps classes bring a lot to parties? I'm new. I can read the wikis but the buff names etc. don't really mean a lot to me now. I've started the game with 3 other friends and I'd like to play something good for playing with them. Maybe not RDM though.

pallid tide
#

AND level crafting lol

leaden ginkgo
strange coral
#

@tough wolf Why not RDM? They bring extra heal and raise. Really though any dps is good. If one has lower dps output than others, it's usually because it has more party buffs or utility..

wicked edge
#

Doesn’t RDM only unlock at 50 though?

strange coral
#

@leaden ginkgo That means it's not hostile (blue), but a difficult fight

#

Yes, RDM requires lv 50 to unlock. Can still plan to switch to it if you want to try it

whole wasp
#

SMN would be good

tough wolf
#

@tough wolf Why not RDM? They bring extra heal and raise. Really though any dps is good. If one has lower dps output than others, it's usually because it has more party buffs or utility..
@strange coral I've tried RDM. I'm not really fond of the in/out rotation. It's not hard or anything, I just gave it a go and it got old quickly.

#

Valid question!

whole wasp
#

big booms, can raise, can switch to healer anytime too

#

if you dont mind being a caster

rich flume
#

Hey everyone, so arcanist unlocks Summ and Scholar. But when you get to 30 and spec, do you for example go to level 50 as a scholar and still be 30 on the summoner or do both level up at the same time please ?

strange coral
#

Both at the same time

tough wolf
#

SMN does look cool and I guess levelling it quickly via SCH is a bonus.

strange coral
#

When you gain exp as either, it's actually arcanist exp iirc, which counts towards both

tough wolf
#

I suppose it'd just be painful learning all of the SMN abilities at later levels if it was ignored all the wya.

rich flume
#

oh ok thank you very much, I was restarting the game on a new character cause my friends are on another server and the fact that both level at the same time is a big plus

tough wolf
#

Is it a "hard" class?

#

How good are NIN and BRD as party classes?

leaden ginkgo
#

It all depends on your skill level but SMN is probably one of the harder classes to master compared to a few others. NIN has a large number of buttons to press in a short amount of time to fit all your abilities into the debuff "trick attack" which is 15 seconds of 5% vulnerability so its a pretty good party buffer

I get that these are subjective newbie questions but I'd think some consensus is out there...

Meta Jobs FAQ
Info

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

wintry chasm
#

Really

#

Just don't suck

#

That's the consensus

strange coral
#

I can't speak for NIN, but BRD is decent. Their song party buffs are a bit weak atm, but they do also have other party utility, like damage reduction for party, remove debuff from party member or self, increase healing to party member or self

tough wolf
#

Ah that sounds good. That's they type of stuff I'm looking for.

leaden ginkgo
#

Their playstyles ARE different so you might wanna just pick one to go through and see what you like leveling later on

wintry chasm
#

You want a buffy job?

strange coral
#

Those things are on CD though, so can't spam them like a healer could

#

I've heard DNC is good for buffs, haven't gotten around to trying it myself

wintry chasm
#

DNC is by far the most buffy job in the game

#

I don't think it's rotation is super fun though since it's a bit of a slow procing thing

leaden ginkgo
#

Dancer is THE buff job as at lvl 60 (when you start the job) you can select another person and they get a damage up buff from you performing Standard Step and the party at 70 can obtain buffs from Technical step which is a whole other move

#

And the step finishers do beeg damage

wintry chasm
#

Then you got some other skills that buff up people around you and your dance partner

#

And heal and damage reduction aoe abilities

sturdy mason
#

Is there a wiki that explains the inventory grid in detail? For example:

  • What the colors of the dots mean
  • If I can tell when I need repairs
  • If I can tell when a piece of gear is at 100% spiritbond

#

if you turn on the inventory tab, idk where from

#

your spiritbonded items are white

#

hard to see but the green dots is my equipped items

blue dots are normal items in my 4 tabs

Orange is Gear/minions/mounts

#

maps too

yeah maps

whole wasp
#

and i think collectables are red?

sturdy mason
#

Is that 1 dot I have red or orange?

whole wasp
#

orange

sturdy mason
#

Orange is gear too? But I see green dots for inventory slots

#

I thought green is gear

#

or equippable

leaden ginkgo
#

wait gear is green my bad

whole wasp
#

yup, green is gear

sturdy mason
leaden ginkgo
#

It's to obtain something when you use it

white, green, blue, red are the only colors I have to worry about then?

Can I see when I need repairs?

narrow parcel

The green/red bar next to gear in your character screen tells you the condition of your gear

The game will also warn you if you start an activity with really damaged gear

I want to say your gear icons next to the inventory icons might turn red but I'm honestly not sure

I don't know what the threshold is for when the game warns you

Retainers let you store items, gil, sell items on the market and can also be given a job for them to gather items in your stead ye

odd bobcat
#

@narrow parcel I don't have the gather option

narrow parcel
#

It's called Ventures

odd bobcat
#

what is the difference betwen free companys and guilds?

twilit arch
#

ventures require you to do a side quest called "An Ill-conceived Venture" to unlock

open coral
#

Free Companies are the player-run, social organizations. Guilds are NPC-run organizations devoted to specific jobs

odd bobcat
#

there is no guild from players in this game?

twilit arch
#

player guilds are free companies

odd bobcat
#

ohh

open coral
#

FCs are what other games might call guilds

odd bobcat
#

what are the advantages besides the social aspect?

open coral
#

The social aspect is the main thing

odd bobcat
#

no guild run or guild war?

open coral
#

No guild wars, no

#

Some guilds will organize content together

#

Within the guild

odd bobcat
#

yeah but i mean is not exclusive

open coral
#

No

odd bobcat
#

on some games there are exclusive runs for guilds and stuff like that

#

which require more organization etc

open coral
#

The only content I can think of that’s exclusive to guilds is the crafting workshops

odd bobcat
#

what is that?

#

can i make chochobo faster or more important

#

DANCE?

open coral
#

Guilds can have a special room in their guild house that you can’t get in a personal house- the workshop. From there, guild members (with appropriate rank permissions) are able to build and send out airships and submersibles on gathering missions for rare items and materials

narrow parcel
#

Can also do research with some of the acquired materials to unlock unique exterior house customization

open coral
#

You can earn riding maps to increase riding speed to a certain point, but you cannot make your chocobo dance

#

You don’t need an fc for faster riding though

odd bobcat
#

fc is free company?

open coral
#

Yes

odd bobcat
#

faster riding you mean reaching end game faster?

#

where do i buy stuff to use chocobo as a summon?

#

also is worth it?

dusk trail
#

the lookout command is not working at one of those spots

open coral
#

You need to complete the level 30(?) bluequest “My Feisty Little Chocobo” from Docette in the south shroud

dusk trail
#

what do I do

fresh lodge
#

Faster riding won't really make any difference in getting to end game content quicker

open coral
#

And yes, having a chocobro is worth it

#

Some of the spots require different commands

fresh lodge
#

Its only really relevant in ARR zones, but you can't buy the maps until at least level 50

odd bobcat
#

so milkroot of syphs is like a drug?

open coral
#

Or if it’s an ARR spot, it may require a specific time of day or type of weather

#

Is there a place where we can have a list of guilds from a region? By example, guilds from Adamantoise?

#

I'm looking for a noob friendly guild that's pretty active

leaden ginkgo
#

How do I even begin to assign moves in controller mode? I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out how to play warrior (and I guess FFXIV)
I'm level 70 😬

magic perch
#

booo

fresh lodge
#

Go to the skills menu and press Square on the ability you want to add

leaden ginkgo
#

Thank you @fresh lodge. I guess what I'm struggling with is understanding where to map what moves.

fresh lodge
#

Thats personal preference, so I can't help with that

leaden ginkgo
#

Interesting.

dusk trail
#

for story reasons, does it matter whether I do the alliance raids from stormblood before or after "emissary of the dawn"?

leaden ginkgo
#

Alliance raids in SB have nothing to do with MSQ

#

They WILL tie in a bit with the ShB artifact weapon

dusk trail
#

ok so I can do them after and not have a weird inconsistency/plothole issue

leaden ginkgo
#

ye

dusk trail

leaden ginkgo
#

How do I get both hotbars (controller mode) to display simultaneously?

#

Hotbar settings > Cross > Always display WXHB

#

Perfect thanks

#

Yup

#

Hmm... that got my right side of set 2 to pop up on the left and right... confusing.

raven sage
#

Have to customize it in the custom tab of the hotbar settings

leaden ginkgo
#

Thought I had 🤔 I'm doing it wrong

raven sage
#

If they're displaying the wrong sides then you need to swap them there

pallid tide
#

when does DNC gear start to show up in quest rewards? In SB?

raven sage
#

DNC wears aiming gear

pallid tide
#

I know, but Chakrams

raven sage
#

Ah

#

I would imagine so since you can't have a weapon below 60

leaden ginkgo
#

It's not that they're the wrong sides, it's like it's taking half of each side and joining it with the same as the one on the other side

raven sage
#

Enable directional buttons

#

Oh or your crossbar type is set up wrong

leaden ginkgo
#

Enabled. It's as if cross 1 and 3 are on the left and 2 and 4 on the right. Odd.

raven sage
#

Check what you have it set as in the cross tab

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok got it I was the cross hotbar display type

#

Thanks for your help and patience

raven sage
#

No problem I forgot that was even an option

leaden ginkgo
#

This game has so many moves to memorize 😩

barren holly
#

new to playing stormblood -> shadowbringers blm

#

am i supposed to use flare during umbral ice or only during astral fire but with umbral hearts

#

and am i supposed to only use flare with umbral hearts so i don't hit 0, or what

leaden ginkgo
#

Heaven on High? Can’t find a party

#

How can I?

barren holly
#

blond best album

#

you basically have to find people who want to do it

#

21-30 or soomething has the most people queueing for it, i heard, so probably

#

that would be easier

#

but 1-10, it takes me over 30m sometimes

leaden ginkgo
#

Only during fire since it gains the astral fire buff (80%) and you should use it as your aoe over fire 2

#

so just use it when there are more than a few targets

barren holly
#

is it a dps loss to use it twice in a row and hit 0 mp?

hot eagle
#

people only do floor 21-30 for hoh and 51-60 for potd for the others u are better to open a pf and try to find people @leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

What kind of duty is hoh?

fleet moth
#

its called a Deep Dungeon

#

you go in with a group and when everyone dies, you get kicked out

#

its got unique mechanics, and the floors are randomized

leaden ginkgo
#

@barren holly I wanna say at 5+ enemies just double flare, when you get to 2-3 do 2 fire 4's flare fire 4 flare ice phase

fleet moth
#

you also level seperately inside of a deep dungeon. you start at level 1 and gain levels inside of it as you go through it

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay, thank you

#

Blond is heavenly btw @barren holly

fleet moth
#

Does anyone know if theres a way to disable autorun completely when using a controller? i tried to set it as left shoulder button as something else but that just swaps autorun with another controller button.. i want autorun gone completely 😦

hot eagle
leaden ginkgo
#

Auturun helps me out so much but I do remember seeing an option for it gimme a sec

#

I selected Deep Dungeon and it just says POTD, I don’t see an option for HOH

#

in System Configuration go to Controller settings and turn off L1+L auto run

#

@fleet moth

rose oak
#

under my MSQ i have a little arrow that says tournament of the century what is that ? am i behind MSQ? or is that like newx expansion stuff?

leaden ginkgo
#

The little text under the window? That's your job quest

#

You're supposed to keep up on those so you have all your abilities for your level

fleet moth
#

ok thank you ^^

leaden ginkgo
#

o7

rose oak
#

so i should go and do them then? i came back on friday so still extremly lost lol

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes

rose oak
#

ty

leaden ginkgo
#

yup

barren holly
#

is thundercloud on thunder 3 worth more or less than af3 fireiv

#

i cant remember

tough wolf
#

Is it just crazy to quest as SCH instead of SMN?

leaden ginkgo
#

Always thundercloud if you have proc, so you don't have to recast the dot since it's doing a bit less than a fire 4 but it's also renewing the dot

#

The only time you shouldn't is if you're about to run out of fire

barren holly
#

@tough wolf its just slower

#

@leaden ginkgo but what if i get like 3 thundercloud procs in quick succession? at that point it seems redundant to renew dot at a loss of potency compared to fireiv

leaden ginkgo
#

SMN is fine since Echo in instances is really good with it's regen so you should have no troubles surviving

barren holly
#

he said as SCH

leaden ginkgo
#

He's asking for either or I believe

#

either's fine tbh

barren holly
#

he said instead of

#

as in

#

scholar instead of summoner

leaden ginkgo
#

Well then I don't get what question he's asking, like crazy as in what?

tough wolf
#

I just get sick of applying DoTs, spamming pet cd's/procs.... on SCH I can just biolysis and spam Broil... is it gonna be massively slower?

barren holly
#

basically he's wondering if the dps loss from going scholar instead of summoner is going to make MSQ into a drag

tough wolf
#

I mean, I'm jus tbeing lazy and I feel bad.

barren holly
#

frankly i think if you dislike summoner's rotation but you enjoy playing dps, you should pick another dps

tough wolf
#

Sorry for even mentioning it

#

.<

#

Only leveling it for SCH!

barren holly
#

ohh

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh, well I did go through as SCH during SB and during the last solo instance I actually couldn't meet the dps check and had to go for SMN to beat it so..

#

And I had some decent gear for the time

barren holly
#

🤔

#

isn't MSQ made to be beatable by any job?

leaden ginkgo
#

If that's different, I dunno but I had struggles with it during the last part of 4.5

tough wolf
#

This is just me needing to do MSQ. If it was for leveling I'd just spam dungeon but I dislike SMN rotation to the point I don't even want to quest with it.

leaden ginkgo
#

I would greatly suggest leveling another dps, try Samurai it's a bit easier on the brain when you're just going through

tough wolf
#

Thing is, I'm selecting the healing quest rewards (meaning my SMN ilvl is getting further behind) and I'm questioining if I'm being silly.

leaden ginkgo
#

It's not very silly to go through SCH first time, no one will really bat an eye

barren holly
#

if you don't like playing a job, just don't play it

leaden ginkgo
#

I mean I did, I just used SMN for that DPS check

barren holly
#

talking to moondoggie

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah, so am I

barren holly
#

o

leaden ginkgo
#

Just when you struggle meeting a dps check just take a break and do roulettes and go buy the best gear for that expansion

dawn mountain
#

A general question. How important is Gil? currently have 440k, am I going to use it alot at max level or something? I dont have any professions

leaden ginkgo
#

And to the thunder proc thing, that's totally up to your discretion, it's not stronger than fire 4 but it's about as strong as a fire 3 in fire phase so just use the proc for dot management @barren holly

#

Weeeeeell gil is important for keeping up to date with the ABSOLUTE best gear that ISN'T time locked, otherwise it's literally just a glamour/housing currency

barren holly
#

purty much

#

iirc there's always going to be better gear but it will be hard to get due to raid difficulty and weekly limits on tokens

dawn mountain
#

So if I want the best possible gear im going to need alot? Can you farm Gil without professions or am l toast

barren holly
#

no

#

the best possible gear can't be bought

leaden ginkgo
#

You don't need the best possible gear unless you're going hardcore raiding, and even then the raiding gear is usually better. It's just there for stuff like Week 1 new stuff

barren holly
#

if i am remembering this correctly

#

gil is just like a shortcut to get closer to the item level cap

#

without farming tomestones and raid tokens

leaden ginkgo
#

The currently best crafted gear is 480 while the best ACTUAL gear is 505, it's just a shortcut to getting caught up

dawn mountain
#

So I could spend Gil on crafted gear when I get max level for example?

barren holly
#

ye

leaden ginkgo
#

At endgame you can just farm the non-poetic non-weekly locked tomes (Phantasmagoria) which, augmented, will be 470 and that's just enough for anything midcore at engame

barren holly
#

by farming gil, i'm not sure what you mean specifically
there's different ways to get gil, it just depends on the market

leaden ginkgo
#

You can do daily roulettes for the daily bonus and it's pretty good at 80, and even better if you're in need, but the best money is always in crafting

barren holly
#

for instance, you can "farm gil" by getting tomestones via DoW/DoM duties and selling the items you exchange

#

but yes, having max 80 in DoL/DoH will lead to the highest profits

#

it's a big investment of time and energy though

#

it has become a lot easier since they introduced the firmament and maybe ocean fishing (idk if it's better for levelling than other activities)

lean minnow
#

a friend purchased the 10$ "skip ARR MQ" thing - he didn't receive it in game even after 1 hour. He bought the game and the 10$ thing trought steam wallet. Any ideas?

blazing lichen
#

just completed Satasha my first dungeon and the loot system is so confusing random pop ups of loot comes up on my screen what does greed need and pass mean?

fresh lodge
#

Basically you roll a number from 1-99

leaden ginkgo
#

Greed is anyone can roll on it and just in general rolling, Need is when the class you are can use it so your roll is higher priority and pass just passes the item so you won't obtain it

fresh lodge
#

Need beats Greed

#

So an 11 Need will always beat a 99 Greed

#

You can only need a piece of gear if you can actually equip it on your currently equipped class

#

And everyone can greed

#

So if you need the gear you Need it

#

Otherwise just Greed it

blazing lichen
#

yea im pugulist and there was a pink mage staff but passed

#

so never pass?

lean minnow
#

@rapid patio he just got it damn

fresh lodge
#

Pass if you don't want it

blazing lichen
#

what do the item colors mean like green or pink

leaden ginkgo
#

It just indicates item rarity, it's completely redundant past the base game

blazing lichen
#

Oh ok thx

#

Also should I leave 2x xp server cause I’m kinda over leveled and I only did msq

leaden ginkgo
#

Where is the best place for a returning player to find people to play with

rapid patio
#

pro greenie srat would be to join a preferred server (x2exp) because thats where all new people are gonna go and alts are gonna be made

fresh lodge
#

You can't leave a preferred world for 90 days since character creation

#

You get it back when you're on a job thats under 70

alpine shadow
#

So, i have this "Soul of the Crafter" and im talking to Alderan, but he aint doing anything

#

what do i do?

fresh lodge
#

No, you're straight up wrong @rapid patio

#

@alpine shadow Have you done the unlock quest?

alpine shadow
#

i dont think so

fresh lodge
alpine shadow
#

check what fact?

fresh lodge
#

I don't have to prove anything

#

You're wrong and thats the end of it

#

So I strongly suggest you drop this and stop giving incorrect advice

sage plaza
#

have you tried switching to another class?

alpine shadow
#

which server?

#

btw, what unlock quest @fresh lodge ?

fresh lodge
#

There should be a quest in Mor Dhona that will give you 3 Soul stones and take you to the NPC

alpine shadow
#

oh right, i do have a quest there now that isnt done yet

#

why did i buy one then...

fresh lodge
#

@alpine shadow You can use it to swap specs later

alpine shadow
#

does "Careful Observation" just allow you to wait for procs? without losing waste not

leaden ginkgo
#

what is a yellow and red icon, in the monsters name?

forest laurel
leaden ginkgo
#

yes

#

oh ok

forest laurel
#

if you get close enough to it it will attack you

leaden ginkgo
#

and blue icon?

#

passive?

forest laurel
#

yeah

#

it will attack you if you attack it first

#

anyway, what kind of FC should I even be looking for? I feel like the ones that are spammed in shout chat and with ppl sending random invites aren't gonna be any good

fresh lodge
#

@alpine shadow it basically just rerolls the status

silver plinth
#

I remember reading there was some gatherer/crafting stuff coming up around 5.21/5.25 - does anyone know anything about that and what I should be preparing to be ready for it?

alpine shadow
#

it was the ishgard restoration

#

i thinl

junior yacht
#

ishgard restoration + qitari beast tribe

alpine shadow
#

qitari already out though?

fresh lodge
#

It is

odd bobcat
#

should i transfer to a new xp server?

fresh lodge
#

Did you start on a preferred world?

raven anvil
#

Hey everyone. I have an FC room, but decided to buy an apartment. I figured the storerooms would not be connected in anyway, so I’m gonna have to take some time to move my furnishings over to the apartment, but if I were to just, relinquish my FC room, would it destroy my furnishings or can I pick them up from escrow?

odd bobcat
#

@fresh lodge i started on adamatoise it looks is not xp bonus

fresh lodge
#

You won't get the xp boost from transferring

tepid shadow
#

I am thinking about Ninja or SMN
what would you all say 😄

odd bobcat
#

@fresh lodge is adamatoise a populated server one?

leaden ginkgo
#

So I am trying to get to gold saucer x-x I am level 55 and it says I have to take quest in Uldah but that npc isnt there x-x

#

am I not getting smth xD

tepid stag
#

can someone explain what triangle means for e5s?

#

as well as true north

faint flare
#

Triangle is for chain lightning, means 2 groups of 3 passing the lighting

#

True north is for Fury 14, regardless where Ramuh goes, you'll always go to the same spear

#

Opposed to seeing where he goes and counting from there

#

Ie if you're spear 3, you'll always go to the 3rd spear from the north side of the arena regardless where Ramuh jumps

green grail
#

that doesn't sound very dps efficient

faint flare
#

Cause it isn't

#

You're screwed as melee but its brain dead

#

And PF needs braindead strats

tepid stag
#

I thought chain has to be passed around the whole group tho?

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Only needs 3 people.per group minimum

#

Cause thats the time it takes for the debuff to fall off

#

With Triangle, only 1 person really needs to move of you position properly

#

In each group

little walrus
#

how does a new player with a lvl 60 fisher unlock yellow gatherers scripts?

#

i can get them, and get like 300 per boat run, but my bf doesnt get any

tepid stag
#

so its like 2 groups of 4 to the north and south of boss?

faint flare
#

2 groups of 3

#

Tanks dont need to be apart of it

odd bobcat
#

how do i increase chocobo speed?

faint flare
#

Especially since a buster happens
