Only certain battle jobs start at higher levels

analog elk
#

im getting around 60-68 for eu light

#

thats great 🙂

minor warren
#

alright !

open coral
#

Everything starts from 1, but it's significantly faster to level each profession than it is in WoW

barren holly
#

right, i just tend to forget these things between each expansion

analog elk
#

do you play with legacy movement?

stoic leaf
jaunty jay
#

keep trying, launch as admin, walk away from your pc. rest router, scream, try again.

#

one might work :x

stoic leaf
#

lmao

jaunty jay
#

its how i solved my troubles last week

stoic leaf
#

is that really all? just hope that it works lol

jaunty jay
#

had internet issues

#

so that was my problem

tender estuary
#

@stoic leaf easiest things you can check, disable firewall and anti virus (windows defender if you dont have anything else installed) and reset your router/modem

analog elk
#

where ca n i buy lvl 5 gear? i have a mission to equip a full set of lvl 5 gear but i only got a bow and chest

tender estuary
#

if that doesnt work usually a VPN does the trick

unborn lagoon
#

Is there a way to get orchestrion music to play in the workshop

scarlet arrow
#

@analog elk vendors in any of the three cities will sell it

analog elk
#

yeah found a vendor near the quest guy and bought the missing parts

#

lucky me had enough gil for the items 😄

scarlet arrow
#

gil just kind of accumulates in this game, it's mainly used for teleports

analog elk
#

good to know 🙂 btw is there reason for my to keep my lvl 1 gear in the armory?

stoic leaf
#

@tender estuary sounds good, ill try those thanks

scarlet arrow
#

not really

leaden ginkgo
#

No once you are able to get lvl 5+ gear from the vendors you can discard your weathered tools and sell the lvl 1 gear

wintry dragon
#

The only reason would be switching to new classes at lvl 1 and you don't like being in the buff

#

But you can always rebuy lvl 1 gear in each main town

upbeat storm
#

Where do I trade in for sublime solutions?

odd bobcat
#

Why people use gcd skills on biger hot bar

upbeat storm
#

Apprently I need 153 of them

odd bobcat
#

I thought it only be useful for ogcd track

narrow parcel
#

How much stuff are you trying to make holy shit

upbeat storm
#

Full 80 dol/doh

narrow parcel
#

They're 250 White Scrips from Eulmore Scrip Exchange

upbeat storm
#

Team craft is saying 153. By full I mean every doh dol

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a way to find previous free companies you were in?

narrow parcel
#

Facet set ya?

analog elk
#

still wonder if its better to play with legacy movement compared to standard

leaden ginkgo
#

Are you ps4?

obsidian patio
#

@upbeat storm you can also desynth level 80 dungeon stuff for the sublimes

narrow parcel
#

Wow okay I'm just stupid actually my bad 😅

upbeat storm
#

Yeah cept in still in hw

obsidian patio
#

Then why are you worried about getting sublimes?

upbeat storm
#

Because my doh dol will hit 80 in about 1 week and I'd like to make money crafting

obsidian patio
#

You won’t be able to make use of them until you unlock the scrip vendor in Eulmore

#

Since the recipes using them are in mastercraft books

upbeat storm
#

Arent the 7 and 8 books sold for yellows though?

narrow parcel
#

There's much better sources of White Scrips in ShB too

upbeat storm
#

Or am I misremembering

obsidian patio
#

Yes, but You can still only buy them from the Eulmore scrip vendor

hot eagle
#

yeah but only the exchange in eulmore has these

odd bobcat
#

Why people use gcd skills on biger hot bar

faint flare
#

Tracking procs

#

Or tracking GCDs that have their own unique cooldowb

young fjord
#

Do we know when we are getting the .5 patch?

narrow parcel
#

Month or two from now probably

dark ravine
#

Could anyone possibly help me with my pentamelding of my crafting gear please? Like a guide or something?

static yacht
#

What do you mean?

#

How to do it?

#

What to meld it with?

dark ravine
#

Like what meld, to get the best stats etc for the upcoming patch tomorrow and so forth. I'm not exactly good at calculating it all out

static yacht
#

I recommend checking the DoL / DoH section of the balance

#

It'll have BiS for gatherers / crafters

dark ravine
#

the balance?

static yacht
#

The balance is the go to for BiS of dps and crafters

#

They'll have a lot more in depth analysis on jobs etc.

dark ravine
#

Okay thank you!

static yacht
#

As well as crafting rotations, dps rotations etc.

#

@heavy oracle you get 4% bonus to all main stats vs 5% to all main stats

#

And you get a bit less LB generation

#

However, if you can clear without it it doesnt really matter.

granite wolf
#

For the anima density gathering, do I need to have the weapon equipped to get the density

formal ore
#

I'm currently a trial character on the main client, if I buy the complete game package on steam will I be able to use the same character through steam with the new dlc? or will it make me start new cause i'm changing clients

wintry chasm
#

It'd work Rui

#

Some people like Kazaar would say don't use Steam since you're locked into Steam or Non-Steam and Non-Steam tends to go on sale for stuff more often and whatnot

formal ore
#

Is there any other reason other than sales? I plan on buying all dlc at once when I upgrade

obsidian patio
#

@granite wolf you need it equipped when you beat the last boss of the instance

wintry chasm
#

I know some people who have gotten the Steam version of the game have had issues with the mogstation website where it won't let them put in game time cards but that is admittedly an easy fix, just confusing

#

And not always an issue

obsidian patio
#

So for dungeons you can use a stronger weapon until the final boss

wintry chasm
#

I'm not well versed admittedly but that is all I can think of Rui

granite wolf
#

gotcha

thin glen
#

so what the hell is the difference between classes and jobs

wintry chasm
#

Jobs are basically the extension of the class

#

Like a uhh

#

promotion if you will

thin glen
#

so if im a marauder

wintry chasm
#

So when you go from your class to your job you'll pick up your job skills too and...stuff

#

Marauder becomes Warrior

thin glen
#

so why do i have a quest giving me the option to become a rogue

wintry chasm
#

You can be everything in the game. That's just a quest to unlock the rogue class

hot eagle
#

u can lvl all classes/jobs on 1 char

granite wolf
#

stay a marauder though

thin glen
#

so theres classes i can unlock that arent available in the character creation?

scarlet arrow
#

yes

wintry chasm
#

Just rogue

#

There are expansion jobs you can unlock and become later on in the game

#

but in terms of level 1 classes it's just rogue that you can't start off with

#

because

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

thin glen
#

oh i dont have any expansions

#

yet

wintry chasm
#

Earliest expansion jobs you can get start at level 50 anyway

#

It doesn't matter what class/job you have to unlock them, they are standalone

thin glen
#

so why should i stay a marauder

scarlet arrow
#

you shouldnt

little swift
#

you don't

wintry chasm
#

Yeah I'm not sure why they said that

little swift
#

you do your job quests and become a warrior

wintry chasm
#

I assume they just meant "play what you wanted, don't be a rogue"

scarlet arrow
#

Warrior is strictly an upgrade to Marauder

thin glen
#

yea

#

is tanking in this game easy

#

esp as a marauder

#

idk how that compares to gladiator

wintry chasm
#

They are all really easy to pick up and learn, the hard part of being a tank is actual universal tank skills like knowing how to rotate the boss properly, tank swaps, and whatnot

scarlet arrow
#

knowing when to use cooldowns

wintry chasm
#

Gladiator/Paladin I guess you can call the easiest since it has a lot of defensive cooldowns but really that's being picky at that point

scarlet arrow
#

also the class -> job advancement mechanic is largely a legacy feature at this point. Originally in order to qualify for a job you needed 30 levels of the base class AND levels in certain other classes (for example you needed 30 levels of Gladiator and 15 levels of Conjurer to qualify for Paladin), but that's long gone

thin glen
#

lets keep it on the new stuff

scarlet arrow
#

just giving context 🙂

thin glen
#

i still cant even figure out how chat works

#

yea

wintry chasm
#

Which part?

thin glen
#

just like chat in general

wintry chasm
#

🤔

thin glen
#

its just all combat text

manic birch
#

I just picked up Botany but I don't know what to do next. I am lvl 1. How can I collect stuff?

thin glen
#

is there like a zone/world chat?

wintry chasm
#

Zone yes world no

obsidian patio
#

Click the general tab, sounds like you’re in the battle tab

wintry chasm
#

^

#

That or no one is talking

thin glen
#

i did actually try that but nothing happens

#

dead serious

#

i spent like 5 minutes clicking it once lmfao

wintry chasm
#

When you say nothing happens do you mean it wouldn't switch or just there was no one chatting?

thin glen
#

it wouldnt switch

wintry chasm
#

Show me where you are clicking

#

and how

thin glen
#

im not on the game

wintry chasm
#

Oh

thin glen
#

but ill post back in here when i can

wintry chasm
#

Any other questions?

thin glen
#

ill have a ton more later

#

im only like level 14

manic birch
#

Can someone help me please? I want to ask if with Botany if I should just explore and pick up grassy bits or something. I'm new and i'm not sure what I am doing

wintry chasm
#

It's not a bad way to level up for the low levels, doing each item for the first time gives a nice bonus too

#

But you do want to do leves after a while

#

If you have joined a grand company at this point you can turn in items there for good xp too

wintry chasm
#

and sometime this patch diadem is going to come out and it's probably going to be really good for leveling

leaden ginkgo
#

I need some help

obsidian patio
#

Yes?

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a way to find previous fc’s you were in before or are they gone forever never to be found?

#

It’s been a year since I last played and I just returned

obsidian patio
#

Not that I’m aware of.

granite wolf
#

do i have to clear alex 9 -12 to unlock savage for that tier

wintry chasm
#

Yes

granite wolf
#

😦

wintry chasm
#

You have to finish a tier before you can unlock savage for that tier

static yacht
#

Just open it up in PR

#

PF?*

#

People will do it for the free tomes unsynced

polar elm
#

when I reach 80 crafting, how much cp should i have, to craft the newest content stuffs?

sinful breach
#

it also depends on your control and craftsmanship, but the rotation I've been rolling with need around 530CP

rare sable
#

541 with matcha HQ for mid tier

polar elm
#

ok thx

leaden ginkgo
#

so realistically SAM is the closest thing to like, a 2 handed melee dps huh?

#

well i mean it IS a 2 handed melee dps

#

but

#

with a sword that is

#

because DRG exists

obsidian patio
#

Yes

#

If you want to be a smartass you could also say Monk is two-handed. :p

leaden ginkgo
#

hmmm do i play the weeb class hmmm

#

im like going through a bunch of classes and still deciding what to play lol. i just lvled a warrior to 56 from lvl 1, and my BLM made it to 77 but im still like, undecided

#

i know im not a big fan of DRG and all its positionals

#

and i guess monk too

obsidian patio
#

Samurai and Ninja are the most chill in terms of positionals

hybrid hamlet
#

how's ninja doing?

#

i'm tempted to level it up cuz dead hive kriss

#

hehe

slate arrow
#

Ninja is pretty decently high up on the DPS chart if that's what you're asking

rare sable
#

Memorizing mudras

hybrid hamlet
#

i have everything memorized

#

excluding the bind jutsu

rare sable
#

High(?) apm would give you wrist pain

obsidian patio
#

You’ll need that one at the higher levels

#

!action hyosho ranryu

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Hyosho Ranryu** : lvl 76 NIN (496 None) (1.5 second cooldown)

Deals ice damage with a potency of 1,200.
Mudra Combination: Chi→Jin or Ten→Jin
Can only be executed while under the effect of Kassatsu.
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.

※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.

obsidian patio
#

Kassatsu at 76 turns Hyoton into this beefy attack

#

And since Kassatsu boost mudra damage by 20% it’s actually more like 1440 potency

#

!action Midare setsugekka

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Midare Setsugekka** : lvl 50 SAM (2.5 second cooldown)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 800. Additional Effect: Grants a stack of Meditation, up to a maximum of 3
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.

obsidian patio
#

And Midare is like 1400 or something with Kaiten and the attack buff from combos, though you can’t directly compare potencies due to buffs/traits and individual job scaling

hybrid hamlet
#

Which one has the lowest gcd during the late game?

wintry chasm
#

Between the melee DPS?

#

Dragoon easy

hybrid hamlet
#

Oh well, what a surprise

obsidian patio
#

Probably monk with greased lightning 4, if you mean fastest

wintry chasm
#

Oh...yeah if you mean that then yeah Monk

#

Sorry it's a bit weird to hear "lowest" and think fastest xD

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a SAM simplified rotation thing out there? like theres one for BLM that was really helpful that did lvl by lvl rotations

slate arrow
#

SAM rotation doesn't change

obsidian patio
#

BLM only has their faq because it changes so drastically depending on level

hybrid hamlet
#

Yeah, i meant the fastest

obsidian patio
#

While almost all the other DPS are like “just try to do the level 80 rotation with what you have”

slate arrow
#

meanwhile BLM doesn't get the ability to spam flare until level 72

wintry chasm
#

Monk is the fastest GCD then NIN and SAM have the same GCD (NIN is very marginally faster) but SAM uses a lot of ogcd skills that would make me say it's faster than NIN @hybrid hamlet

hybrid hamlet
#

Thank you

#

Think i'll stick with ninja because of dead hive kris

rare sable
#

Dw, leveling a class cause you like their glam is perfectly valid reason (for real - not sarcastic)

#

Since you can level anything and everything, why not do what makes you happy

warped nest
#

@leaden ginkgo
< Lvl 50: Tenka Goken is fine on single target
< Lvl 62: spend Kenki on Kaiten to buff Higanbana is give you best value, but only if Higanbana can tick all the way

leaden ginkgo
#

Are SB trade leves the same as in ARR/HW?

#

Or they give you the mats

warped nest
#

That's the difference in rotation while leveling

rare sable
#

I wish, but nope, sb and shb leve is the same old buy and craft your own end product

twilit arch
#

sb/shb leves are exactly the same as ARR/HW leves

slate arrow
#

tenka goken

#

i'm sorry what

leaden ginkgo
#

What's the best way to level 60 DoH/L then

slate arrow
#

leves

leaden ginkgo
#

Crap

warped nest
#

"< Lvl 50" you don't get yukikaze yet

slate arrow
#

oh

warped nest
#

Only applicable on leveling roulette seeing that Samurai starts on 50, but still good to know

rare sable
#

@leaden ginkgo daily GC submission, then for DoL - pick fishing cat / flower girl leve plate whenever available

#

Weekly custom delivery is also g8

#

And if you have time to spare, daily namazu

rigid prairie
#

Is it easy to run Coil of Bahamut nowadays?

slate arrow
#

unsynced yes

rigid prairie
#

WOO

#

I wanna get the knuckles

#

So now I can barter friends to do it for me yay

leaden ginkgo
#

@rare sable what do you mean about fishing cat/flower girl

#

Probably a random question but does not doing savage content instantly make most players see you as a bad player? Like I'd like to think I'm at least competent but the thought of savage raids make my anxiety skyrocket so I've never tried them - that and I don't have enough friends for it :u

obsidian patio
#

The icon on the leve plate

#

No. Lack of savage does not make you a bad player.

leaden ginkgo
#

I just always got those vibes i guess aha

rare sable
#

You can try from ex

leaden ginkgo
#

When you start doing savages you’ll notice there’s a thin line between luck/biS gear/and then player competency

#

If you’ve ever cleared a savage run with a pug you’ll know which one or all of those your party had

hard fern
#

resolved

narrow parcel
#

You should probably delete that image

#

Quickly

#

👌

hard fern
#

sorry

narrow parcel
#

It's for your own protection xP

hard fern
#

okay so when you get the confirmation code in your email where to you type it please

#

thank you

naive hound
#

I have a question

#

Is there anyway I can allocate the game like chose where it installs

leaden ginkgo
#

I know on Steam you can create multiple libraries or move the entire Steam folder

#

If retail... Maybe the installer gives you an option as well

naive hound
#

The installer does not alllow you to do that, not that I know of

narrow parcel
#

I just move the launcher's folder

formal ore
#

does this game have a /timeplayed equivalent?

narrow parcel
#

/playtime

formal ore
#

thx!

wintry chasm
#

Only shows playtime for one character though

formal ore
#

Is there any reason to have other characters in this game? Other than fashion

narrow parcel
#

Generally just RP or wanting to play with different groups of friends

#

or just people that want to replay the game a lot

formal ore
#

Thx

narrow parcel
#

Meant to add that yeah there's no benefit other than personal goals like that

leaden ginkgo
#

There's one other reason which is "Timelocked Gear" at end game and for the earlier parts of the raid tier you can only REALLY be best in slot if you focus one job, so people make alts so they can get around that and be BiS with at least 2 jobs

west cedar
#

Hey could anyone help me with a situation involving pc and PS4?

Why is my leveling roulette only level 16

#

i'm a level 38 ast

leaden ginkgo
#

Have you completed enough of your MSQ?

unreal badge
#

uhhh

#

I did a ARR skip

#

nothing else so far

obsidian patio
#

Level 16 is just the minimum level needed to queue for the roulette

#

Since that’s when you get your second dungeon

unreal badge
#

oh ok

leaden ginkgo
#

Story skip or lvl skip

obsidian patio
#

It includes all dungeons that aren’t level 50/60/70/80 that you have unlocked

leaden ginkgo
#

If you only got a lvl skip you still have to complete enough of the MSQ to unlock the level roulettes as you wouldn’t have even done the dungeons yet

unreal badge
#

Story skip

#

only level skip I got was WM

#

so I can start HW and get ast

leaden ginkgo
#

Hm ok

sturdy mason
#

When I get this message, does it mean the next time I harvest the node it will be the hidden fish?

#

So I switch my spearhead?

#

i see that it's just a hint

#

it prints like 3-4 times then a node shows up

unreal badge
#

my friend wants to know the best way to level from 10-15

slate arrow
#

Hunting Log

leaden ginkgo
#

I have 2.38 skill speed on my sam is that an okay speed or should i use materia to increase it?

steep heron
#

A that level using Hunting Log or FATEs

leaden ginkgo
#

Leves and hunting logs and fates along the way as well as MSQ

steep heron
#

2.38 sounds about right iirc

#

Things couldve changed for Sam speed in this tier

obsidian patio
unreal badge
#

Sweet thanks guys

#

Is it helpful if my friend with a higher level character helps me with my hunting log

#

Or does that stunt my exp

obsidian patio
#

Hunting log is fixed experience so it won’t hurt it

unreal badge
#

Nice

#

That's really cool

#

And it's straight forward

steep heron
#

most of the XP comes from completion of Hlog portions rather than the kills themselves

leaden ginkgo
#

Thanks Wynne

#

Plus they will need it later for grand company ranks

unreal badge
#

What do I do with the vouchers I get from dungeons

slate arrow
#

what vouchers

unreal badge
#

Uhh

#

Forgot the name

#

Not at my computer right now

#

Eating dinner

steep heron
#

when yuo can drop a screenshot

unreal badge
#

They're listed as rewards for leveling roulette for sure

obsidian patio
#

The currency that looks like paper?

unreal badge
#

Yeah

steep heron
#

Seals?

obsidian patio
#

Those are Grand Company seals, which are spent at your grand company for promotions or items/equipment

slate arrow
#

Grand Company seals

unreal badge
#

Yeah

slate arrow
#

you can use them to exchange for certain items at your Grand Company Vendor

unreal badge
#

So what's a gc

#

So many currencies 😬

obsidian patio
#

GC = Grand Company

unreal badge
#

i know

steep heron
#

Maelstrom/Immortal Flames/Twin Adders

slate arrow
#

You join one as part of your MSQ

unreal badge
#

I was asking what the gc is

slate arrow
#

You literally can't skip joining a grand company

#

In story - it's one of three armies Eorzea has which you can join

#

In the context of the MMO, it's completely optional content which has it's own rewards and content, mostly for solo players.

#

There used to be PvP related stuff to it but it caused horrible unbalanced gameplay

junior yacht
#

optional after you join

leaden ginkgo
#

so for lvling DPS jobs is POTD/HOH the best option plus daily trials?

junior yacht
#

after daily roulettes yes

celest bison
#

can anyone pls help me and tell me why i am missing my hotbar slots after I transferred my account from free trial to full game?

steep heron
#

They likely arent missing. You can check various ettings to see if they are made invisible.

celest bison
#

i just saw someone else's message above yours, didnt get to read fully. what was the message?

#

what settings?

steep heron
#

I didnt read it entirely but they said Free trial data doesnt save to main game.
But its the same thing.

celest bison
#

odd cuz im able to backup character, gear, and everything else, the only missing is hotbar data

steep heron
#

System->Character Settings->Hotbar settings tab

#

Sometimes you might have to remake hotbar settings

#

If you go to System->Hud Layout you can have preset UIs saved which include Hotbar set ups

leaden ginkgo
#

^

#

Was deeply sad when I backed my data up on PS4 only to find my hotbars wiped when I logged in on pc

celest bison
#

so how the heck do i get my attack and other slots back? like where do i find my skills for me to reassign them?

steep heron
#

If on Pc the default hotkey is P if Iirc

slate arrow
#

Character > Actions and Traits

boreal monolith
#

So I just noticed that a medicine I was using was about to wear off but I was in the crafting process already so it didn't, does this also apply to food as well?

steep heron
#

Yes it applies to food/medical buffs

slate arrow
#

Food and Medicine was changed so it stays applied until the craft is finished

boreal monolith
#

I see, thanks guys

celest bison
#

ok tyvm

steep heron
#

Actions are specific to jobs and Role is to that type of job. So Tanks share actions. Healers share. Physcial DPS share etc etc

leaden ginkgo
#

@celest bison unfortunately you’ll have to reassign your hotbar actions/role skills through the actions and traits menu

celest bison
#

oooof rip ty for your help, guys

shell dagger
#

hi i have a noob question. what do all the <se.2> mean when party members write that in chat?

mortal root
#

whats the setting to lower the amount of ppl i see

steep heron
#

It makes one of the sound effects play.
Usually to try and get someones attention

leaden ginkgo
#

It’s a macro ping

shell dagger
#

oh. isn't that kind of obnoxious?

teal veldt
#

uh .... when you upgrade an ARR crafter tool to Lucis, does it unlock ALL of them? Cause I just checked the calamity salvager and I should only have two, but I have all of them lol

steep heron
#

if its misused or spammed it can be.

#

im not seeing an option to limit the amount of people you see but there are options to removing their shadows or redducing their wind effects if they are too taxing on your system

zinc inlet
#

Hello! Please tell me if there is a tracking of the dps of the group and yourself. If there are several which are better (you can also reference to the installation). Thanks!

steep heron
#

No in game tracking but Active Combat Tracker (ACT) is very common. Do NOT talk about it in game as its an easy way to get reported.

teal veldt
#

there's people who literally fish for a way to report people, and ACT/Parsing a surefire way to give them ammo ^

celest bison
#

where do i find the buttons such as teleport, ? not the ones in Actions & Traits

steep heron
#

General

#

Same menu as Actions and traits just move down to General

slate arrow
#

action and traits > general

steep heron
#

You'll find buttons for lots of things there

celest bison
#

oh im blind facepalm

teal veldt
#

like random mount, the true best way to call a mount. Gotta flex those raid mounts

steep heron

until you get something you regret unlocking like Managarm

teal veldt
#

that's why you set it to only call favourites then populate that list with extreme and savage mounts only v:

#

(then end up using the mount guide to call the gobwalker anyway because you wanna hear Locus for the hundredth time)

steep heron
#

Thats almost too few
I like most mounts but Managarm is so dumb

#

I turned mount music off. I hate the generic mount music which most use

hybrid hamlet
#

What's the name of the chocobo mount that looks like a plant

steep heron
#

gunna need a bit more info than that

#

what color is it?

hybrid hamlet
#

Green and white

#

Don't know if it is an actual mount or just cosmetic stuff for chocobos

obsidian patio
#

I can’t think of any barding that’s plant themed.

leaden ginkgo
#

I can think of the Titania Barding

twilit arch
#

the only cosmetic stuff for chocobos is the barding

obsidian patio
#

No green on that one though

narrow parcel
#

Titania one has no green yeah

granite wolf
#

Does A10S give less density than A12S?

steep heron
#

Samurai barding is green iirc

leaden ginkgo
#

Density?

granite wolf
#

theres a pf group up for a10s but someone told me a12s is faster

obsidian patio
#

I think they give the same, though most people do A9S for the speed

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh, Sephirot's a big boi plant

steep heron
#

for Ligght farmingn

leaden ginkgo
#

Ohhh lmao

twilit arch
#

I'm going to take a guess and say you either saw a morbol mount, Korpokkur Kolossus or Sabotender Emperador

narrow parcel
#

The Sephirot Barding does have green but no white

leaden ginkgo
#

A9S is much faster

#

Because it’s easier and quicker to clear

hybrid hamlet
#

It was a chocobo

steep heron
#

Amaros can look moldy I guess in the right light but thats a stretch

hybrid hamlet
#

Guess it was titania's

leaden ginkgo
#

not really plant like at all

#

That’s not green at all lmao

#

It's a little blue-green

narrow parcel
#

The cyan could be seen as a bit green yeah

leaden ginkgo
#

Teal

hybrid hamlet
#

Yeah my memory is failing me

leaden ginkgo
#

Is green/blue

#

This is the only other thing I can assume if their chocobo was white

#

Which is sephirot

#

Was sorting thru all my Bardings like where tf is a green and white one lol

steep heron
#

Ceremony Bo has a bit of green on it but i dont think its what he meant

leaden ginkgo
#

Meant teal and white if it was Titania

hybrid hamlet
#

Now i remember

#

It was expanse barding

past arch
#

Legitimate question, why does smn still have physick? It’s completely devoid of use at this point as the potency has been robbed of its general function?

hybrid hamlet
#

Though the green was probably from the owner's armor

leaden ginkgo
#

Because ACN has physick which is shared with SCH

#

No one really knows the true reason probably the code restrictions

past arch
#

If they were gunna keep it through 5.0 revamps why not give it back it’s functional potency I am so confused by this action choice @-@

twilit arch
#

tbh not really sure what you mean by functional potency

#

it was never good as smn

past arch
#

Before RDM it had decent solo healing capabilities

twilit arch
#

no it didn't lmao

#

at low levels, sure maybe

slate arrow
#

It's kept there as a legacy mechanic because one of ACN's class quests requires physick?

twilit arch
#

but it has always scaled with mnd

slate arrow
#

I think?

twilit arch
#

and thus always been awful for smn

past arch
#

It did for me to be frank I never ran into a spot where I’d die once I used it pre 4.0

twilit arch
#

if you're dying because you don't have physick then make use of topaz carbuncle/titan egi-

past arch
#

I’m not I’m just mentioning that I’ve never had to struggle pre 4.0 with its use and self healing

#

But just curious why they kept it past 5.0 is all.

slate arrow
#

ACN shenanigans

twilit arch
#

not exactly a question we can answer anyway

#

we're not devs

leaden ginkgo
#

It’s because of the pre 30 solo healing limitations as ACN

past arch
#

It doesn’t hurt to ask given the fact that people find useful information sometimes pertaining to these topics.

leaden ginkgo
#

It’s not meant to be potent as an 80 endgame SMN skill

past arch
#

Ok that makes more sense thank you loxxi! ^-^

leaden ginkgo
#

What the hell

warped nest
#

Wtf

quartz shale
#

<@&100464652139368448>

hybrid hamlet
#

Understandable

twilit arch
#

y'all dont need to comment on it

warped nest
#

Just to add, SMN's Physick is not the only "useless" skills

winged cobalt
#

i banned them

warped nest
#

Don't think too much of a weak Physick at lvl 80

sick hollow
#

this may have been asked before but is there any way to fix discord overlay for this game? I just cant get it to recognize the game

slate arrow
#

launch discord as admin

steep heron
#

XIV doesnt play nice with Overlays

hybrid hamlet
#

Im having the same problem

past arch
#

Yeah I usually just leave that ability off my hot bars @warped nest

hybrid hamlet
#

Discord only recognizes the launcher

sick hollow
#

alt tabbing is so frustrating. I have started discord as admin but no dice

#

yeah, as florise said

leaden ginkgo
#

I had the issue of it constantly being annoying to get off my screen not on lol

celest bison
#

how do u enlarge chat window on ps4?

#

not with triangle button

leaden ginkgo
#

Personally I had to use an external mouse to make it bigger

#

The touchpad over the corner tap and hold then drag

#

Moving your finger along the touchpad acts as a mouse

quick pecan
#

can we get multiple princess's peach corsage from the little ladies event?

leaden ginkgo
#

?

slate arrow
#

if you can it'll probably be from the calamity vendor

leaden ginkgo
#

It’s an event item so no

#

Idk why you would want more than one tho

quick pecan
#

dye it more than once ofc

leaden ginkgo
#

That’s easy

#

Put it in your glam chest

#

You can dye it in and out of that

celest bison
#

its not letting me drag with virtual mouse, it just keeps clicking other part of the screen @leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

And apply it to multiple gearsets

#

@celest bison are you trying to expand the chat log out?

#

And you’ll save glam prisms too btw by putting it in your glam chest

celest bison
#

okk i got it fixed, thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

Np

#

It’s tricky you kindof have to tap and hold the corner just right for a second for it to drag

mortal root
#

how do i finish enclave really quick

slate arrow
#

you can't

steep heron
#

Max it out every week.
but its on a week to week basis.

mortal root
#

rephrase: whats the most gil efficient item to donate

twilit arch
#

clear demimateria probably

#

can also do demicrystals from poetics if you're not using those for anythin

raven coral
#

question maybe someone can answer. can an account that has not been active for over a year be recruited for recruit a friend?

twilit arch
#

So long as that account has never bought a subscription to the game, sure

past arch
#

No sadly, pre first subs only

raven coral
#

gotcha thanks.

unreal badge
twilit arch
#

its from one of the main scenario quests

unreal badge
#

oh

#

ARR?

leaden ginkgo
#

HW I think

unreal badge
#

oh that explains it

twilit arch
#

no, its lv 70 quest "A Requiem of Heores"

unreal badge
#

ok

#

ty

#

where does that start

leaden ginkgo
#

literally the last quest of StormBlood post game

lyric warren
leaden ginkgo
#

Breathe

#

And teleport to the estate too I think

lyric warren
#

so they cant do anything dangerous

past arch
#

They can eat your holdiay foods so careful there

lyric warren
#

they can??

twilit arch
#

yes, they can still interact with items

past arch
#

Yeah like an FC house

lyric warren
leaden ginkgo
#

Whether they can go in or if friends can teleport to your estate

lyric warren
#

and no1 can nibble on my food?

leaden ginkgo
#

They might still be able to interact with your items if they're your tenants

#

if they aren't your tenants then I don't think they can

twilit arch
#

basically if you dont trust friends not to touch your food, don't make them a tenant

lyric warren
#

ye i just want them to be able to tp but not use anything other than the chairs lol

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah just don't make them a tenant and enable teleportation

#

they can still /sit in the chairs

lyric warren

for the pixie beast tribes am i only able to do 3 quests daily?

twilit arch
#

yes, unless you rank up (barring rank 7/8 rank ups) then you're given an extra 3 to do

red junco
#

next thing, how is this effect achieved? Multiple windows?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yep

#

Multiple imitation windows side by side

#

do i still need to have low ping to play machinist after the expansion?

wintry chasm
#

I'm not sure where I'd rate it now but it is certainly a lot better in that regard now

obsidian patio
#

Hypercharge windows are still fairly ping intensive, but if you enter them with 0 charges on Gauss/Ricochet you only need to do 2 or 3 weaves of them to avoid overcapping

leaden ginkgo
#

hmm ok ty

#

can i play it if i play with 160ms

obsidian patio
#

It’ll be rough for Hypercharge windows, but outside of those you’ll manage

mortal current
#

You can certainly play it with 160ms. High ping will only potentially affect your enjoyment and limit your very high tier performance of the job. You can very much still do well and clear any content on mch with your ping.

leaden ginkgo
#

ok thanks !

Does anyone have triple triad guide? Like what cards to bring in, what moves etc?

Do the npcs behave predictably enough for that?

Regarding DRK vs GNB, despite maxing both, i prefer DRK solely based off TBN

trim cove

Triple Triad NPCs are not that predictable

#

their decks are also chosen from a small pool so it's different each time you chalenge them

where do I unlock red mage?

unkempt marsh

you need a combat class at lv. 50, and you need Stormblood installed. If you do, go to Ul'Dah and talk to the "Distraught Lass"--- otherwise, she'll still be there but the quest will be locked @unreal badge

I know Pixies do, I wanna say that Qitari don't however?

dim ridge

yeah just found out lol

narrow parcel

Believe they give phantas instead since those are useful for crafters/gatherers

dim ridge

so far just cordials

ah okay

i literally need 3 to cap

what's a good way to get literally 3 allegory

median nebula
#

what was the easiest way to farm grade vi materia?

leaden ginkgo
#

Vendors

#

I think I got stacks from the scrip vendor in rhalgors reach

#

Or the materia vendor

random warren
#

you can also buy grade 6 for poetics in Idyllshire

leaden ginkgo
#

Think he sells 6

#

5 and 6

#

For cracked crystals?

median nebula
#

its like 800 poetics though

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh wait those are hand and land 6’s

median nebula
#

im not sure if the best is to ust buy them and pray i dont need to buy that many

#

combat materia i mean

leaden ginkgo
#

I’m pretty sure the scrip vendor was much easier

topaz scroll
#

At what level/ilvl should I be able to solo most of the bindinng coils?

slate arrow
#

depends on the job because it's mostly a health issue

#

PLD: of course

#

RDM: eh, not quite

#

Any of the healers: Yeah, probably

topaz scroll
#

At what level tho? Haha

twilit arch
#

if you want to do it safely with most jobs, 80

#

tanks can start soloing sooner, rather than later

topaz scroll
#

Got it thanks 😄 hard to find peopl to run it with

leaden ginkgo
#

I solo’d all the EX trials for my ponies with PLD at lvl 70 with ease and the first few binding coils as well unsynched

#

I’d say as a base 70 tank you can solo that stuff very easily

My pld is at but only at around 170ish ilvl because I’m still in HW

#

Would he be able to do it?

#

Is at level 70*

leaden ginkgo
#

Your PLD is 70

topaz scroll
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

Should be able to solo the first 3 binding coils then

#

Unsynched

#

One of them you will need help but I think it’s the one with twintania in it

#

Can’t remember which coil that one was

twilit arch

twintania is t5

You can't start the quest or you can't see/find the quest?

polar cairn
#

nevermind the quest isnt blue with a plus sign for some reason

because it doesn't unlock anything

it gives a title, but that's it

for future reference though, all of the 80 job quests are normal side quests

is it possible to copy an item code into the game to get a link to it and try it on?

@ivory iris Afaik, from what we've been told, it's gonna tie to the next tier of the Ishgardian Restoration, being the Gatherers' activity to level and such

ivory iris

that's even better

leaden ginkgo
#

who is stronger in lore... Ifrit or Belias?

thin glen
#

how hard is tanking

warped nest
#

Not very

#

Tanking adds in dungeon: cycle your defensive abilities around so you have defensive buff up at all time, don't use them all in one go. Try not to move too much unless necessary. Use AOE to keep the adds aggro on you

#

Tanking boss in dungeon/trial: same stuff with defensive cooldown, but try to save some for the harder hitting attack (this is referred as tank-buster). For some mechanics, you would need to move the boss around for a lil bit.

fiery urchin

Now every single time I try to log in I get that error on loading screen

#

(the one with the mail moogle)

#

I don't use mods, by the way

and I don't have any mod installed, or special visual effect 3rd party program, just vanilla ff14

#

Any idea what this might be?

#

Again...

slate arrow
#

it just happens™️

try restarting your computer

It keeps happening

#

ever after restart :(

#

what's going on...

dim ridge
#

have you lowered your graphics down to min?

#

what directX are you on?

#

I know it sounds NUTS but i get a very similar error in ONE SPECIFIC SPOT in yanxia

fiery urchin
#

I've never ever ever encountered this issue before, and it's gonna sound so stupid but I just fantasia'd into a lala and tp'd to MorDona like I said

#

and then BAM it crashed

#

maybe it tried to load too many items?

dim ridge
#

like i said, lower your graphics settings to the actual lowest setting

fiery urchin
#

how do I lower my graphics down?

dim ridge
#

like laptop low

#

when you load into the game and click your character, does it crash instantly now?

fiery urchin
#

no

#

I can select my dude

alpine shadow
#

You can lower your graphics in the graphics settings in your settings

dim ridge
#

yeah so you load in, hit esc and go to your graphics settings

#

that's why i asked if it was instant

fiery urchin
#

oh okok

delicate copper
#

Question.....what can I do with the extra materials for ishgardian restoration, the ones that doesn't reach the collectivity number

alpine shadow

So I reinstalled this but now I can’t login

fiery urchin
#

@dim ridge So I asked a friend to move me out of MorDona

#

and they did and I was able to log in and move normally in Gridania

dim ridge
#

yeah

fiery urchin
#

however

#

as soon as I click "MorDona" on the tp list

#

the error pops up

dim ridge
#

tp back to mor dhona n crash

#

yup

fiery urchin
#

like, as soon as I do the "hovering on the floor concentrating" emote

dim ridge
#

I'm entirely serious about the graphics thing

fiery urchin
#

I did!!

#

its as low as it can be

dim ridge
#

okay past that I'm stumped then!

jaunty jay
#

ifits dx11 it happens switch to 9

fiery urchin
#

and I've never encountered this issue before

dim ridge
#

yeah that, try 9

fiery urchin
#

ok

jaunty jay
#

it does it to me to the point of just staying on 9 for a week ):

fiery urchin
#

or in game?

jaunty jay
#

thats it

fiery urchin
#

ok let's see

#

it still crashes

#

the SECOND I click mordona

#

to tp

dim ridge
#

that's so odd

fiery urchin
#

not even the second, the milisecond

jaunty jay
#

update drivers?

obsidian patio
#

Maybe some of your files are broken/corrupt?

#

if it's literally only mor dhona

fiery urchin
#

that's what I'm thinking

#

is the only solution reinstalling?

#

:(

#

my pc is saying my drivers are up to date

obsidian patio
#

Might be. :\

fiery urchin
#

😭

obsidian patio
#

lemme ping hank just to be sure

#

@tender estuary what do you think if someone consistently has a crash the instant they try to teleport to a specific zone?

rare sable
#

Stupid question, how to get the little ladies funitures? I get the head pieces but the repeated quest is just for confetties?

obsidian patio
#

buy the furniture from the vendor near where the event started

#

read up on the issue, and it seems like its something about Brynhildr

obsidian patio
#

so it's just brynhildr being derpy right now?

rare sable
#

Ouw, thanks as always wynne :3

alpine shadow
#

so like tping to North Shroud should work

#

dunno, but the samme issues leads to saying its Brynhildr

fiery urchin
#

whats Brynhildr

alpine shadow
#

a world?

#

not sure if thats what they are really talking about

trail rivet
#

so if you start an instance of e8s a few minutes before the reset, will it count as next week if you clear after?

alpine shadow
#

some say it might be the gpu drivers

#

no

trail rivet
#

it counts as the current week when you started?

#

you're 100% sure?

alpine shadow
#

Your loot drop will count for that week you first joined the instance yeah

#

though, im not sure if it locks you out for that week you leave

fiery urchin
#

gpu drivers are up to date afaik though

#

and I was able to go to mordona last night just fine

#

it was only after I fantasia'd and tpd tonight

#

that i crashed constantly

#

w/e I'll reinstall

#

and cry

obsidian patio
#

make sure to back up your character info though

#

so you can quickly get back your hud/hotbar/gearsets, among other things

How needed is it to do the crystal tower before shb? I just met a certain person yesterday and I'm not sure if I can continue the story or take a few days to 1st try to do the tower? Not even sure if pple still que for it.

wraith marlin
#

So, as a mid-level noobling, how concerned should I be that my gear is 10 levels below me? ie, main job is 39, gear is 28

obsidian patio
#

@leaden ginkgo it adds a few extra dialogue choices and adjusts a few of the later cutscenes, but is not strictly required. As for queue time Crystal tower is fairly fast due to the Alliance Raid roulette and also being generally the fastest of the 24-mans to run

leaden ginkgo
#

@obsidian patio aha, tyvm. I'll see if I can complete it.

obsidian patio
#

@wraith marlin if you're a tank then I suggest upgrading your gear right away if you're doing dungeons that are at your level.

wraith marlin
#

just dps.

obsidian patio
#

but if you're still going through level 30 or so of the story then you can keep relying on the quest give-outs

wraith marlin
#

I'm not dying too much, fwiw

#

ok. tyvm

obsidian patio
#

What accessories are you using? you can get level 28/29 ones from a vendor near the Goldsmith's guild in Ul'dah

#

those can last until 50

wraith marlin
#

ah, ok. I will check that out.

#

@rare jetty I recommend using party finder or searching through #recruitment-light

granite wolf
#

Unless I can burn through with IR

obsidian patio
#

might be able to, Inner Release is a lot of burst

granite wolf
#

True that

timber spindle
#

trying to get to the Mord Souq, could any1 help me

obsidian patio
#

moreso if you don't use your infuriate stacks for the first part

granite wolf
#

I'll give it a shot

obsidian patio
#

@timber spindle How do you need help exactly? Did you leave the area before attuning to the aetheryte?

timber spindle
#

I have to get there

#

I don't have it attuned

#

And never went

obsidian patio
#

The story should take you there then with the quest "In Search of Alisaie"

timber spindle
#

well

#

im not there

#

so

#

im lost lol

unreal badge
#

can you change GCs?

wintry chasm
#

Yes

#

Your first time is for free but after that you have to pay a small Gil fee and there is a time limit before you can do it again

#

@timber spindle Have you done any of the "Alisaie questline"?

timber spindle
#

i think i got it

#

ty

unreal badge
#

how do I do it?

ebon kindle
#

Is there any site or ip to ping in cmd to check my connection to ff14? I'm lagging like a madman but it's only ingame, no other sites/anything.

wintry chasm
#

Just uh, talk to the officer of the GC you want to swap to and there should be dialogue for it IIRC @unreal badge

obsidian patio
#

You'll also need to be the rank of Second Lieutenant

unreal badge
#

oh

#

yikes that's far up

wintry chasm
unreal badge
#

only private first class ATM

twin kelp
#

Is there a resource i can check for value of items on market while im out gathering?

wintry chasm
#

It's not hard to get to GGEZ

#

Not really @twin kelp

twin kelp
#

sad

ebon kindle
#

Thank you thank you @wintry chasm . Any idea of what servers to check ping on if I'm in a duty, like to a random dungeon?

wintry chasm
#

Whatever data center you are on

obsidian patio
#

since your role says you're aether, you'll ping 204.2.229.9

ebon kindle
#

I expected different IPs for each server before pulling it up* myb

mellow wagon
#

Bros Im from southeast asia and cant buy the game

#

how do i get by this

tidal knoll
#

Does there exist a scrub's guide to the fishing boat? Is it foolish to start at lv1?

wintry chasm
#

Well no because the point of data centers is that it's a center where a bunch of servers are held so you'd just do data center @ebon kindle

obsidian patio
#

You most likely won't be able to get the shark mount and titles, but you can definitely do it at level 1

tidal knoll
#

tyty

twin kelp
#

so the crystarium deliveries. how many of those can i complete before it stops me lol

wintry chasm
#

@twilit arch do you have any idea for Pookie?

#

@twin kelp they go up to level 80

#

It's basically the crafting /gathering quests

#

Once you do the questline you're done

twin kelp
#

oh okay. so theyre not repeatable that makes sense ty

#

also since i dont have quests for my job, what's the best (least expensive) way to keep my gathering gear up to date going 70-80?

wintry chasm
#

By making gear is the obvious answer

twin kelp
#

i havent gotten around to leveling a crafter yet sadly

wintry chasm
#

If you can't do that then...have fun buying it somewhere

twin kelp
#

:(

wintry chasm
#

Maybe a nice friend could make you something?

twin kelp
#

the darkest timeline

unreal badge
#

what's the best way to grind gc ranks?

sinful breach
#

gc turn ins

unreal badge
#

do I need to be sgt second class to turn in armor/weapons?

obsidian patio
#

yes

#

until then you can do the grand company hunting log, fates, and roulettes that give seals

Hey guys level 38 dragoon here

where do you spend your tombs on ShB?

wintry chasm
#

Eulmore

#

Top floor

burnt spear
#

so everywhere I read, the BRD DoTs are said to have 40% to proc on hit per DoT, but my song description only list 20%, am I underleveled and will get this 40% figure later or was it changed? Or am I simply misunderstanding the percentage here?

obsidian patio
#

hmm, according to the official jobguide website it lists 40%

#

But I don't see a trait that directly says that the chance to proc is increased from some amount

#

I think it's when Venomous Bite and Windbite are upgraded at 64?

#

only thing I can think of

oak ice
#

!action mage's ballad says 40%

obsidian patio
#

yes, but when I look at Garland tools, it shows a text toggle option for 20% and 40%

#

to show that the tooltip changes due to traits and stuff

oak ice
#

No song related traits here

leaden ginkgo
#

How can I keep house plot if I have to unsub for some time

#

so when I start a new job (fishing) and I equip the rod I'm naked? how do I go about getting level 1 gear for fishing?

oak ice
#

From an NPC vendor

leaden ginkgo
#

which one?

oak ice
#

I think they're called Fieldcraft something. Should be one in Hawker's Alley, since you specifically mentioned FSH

wintry chasm
#

Just put on race starter gear

#

Not like it matters too much at level 1

oak ice
#

Yeah, and that

#

Your job quests will provide a bunch of gear

leaden ginkgo
#

oh I sold my level 1 gear because I got better gear ><

#

I'll try and find that npc

oak ice
#

Fish naked, if nothing else

wintry chasm
#

You can buy it back in the cities from specific vendors

#

Just FYI

jaunty jay
#

the starter gear is also sold by the same npcs that sell the greens for your chocobo

wintry chasm
#

Not all greens sellers sell race starting gear Kia

#

But sure

jaunty jay
#

in the cities they do

#

limsa, ulda, gridania

obsidian patio
#

@leaden ginkgo your only option is to enter the house every 45 days.

#

if you plan to unsub longer than that, then there's no real option besides reclaiming the gil compensation and furniture that are available for up to 45 days past the automatic demolition

dawn mountain
#

I just got my zenith relic weapon, and I seem to be unable to put in my glamour chest thingy, do I have to use prisms specifically for the relic weapon?

fresh lodge
#

Relic weapons can't go into the dresser

obsidian patio
#

only replicas of relic weapons can go into the dresser

#

which for the zodiac series, can only be bought after completing the entire relic

raw solstice
#

It is indeed the upgrade to stormbite/caustic bite where repertoire proc rate increases to 40%, by the way, to confirm what you mentioned earlier

dawn mountain
#

cuz I was able to use a prism on the first stage of the relic weapon

obsidian patio
#

yeah you'll have to use the old method of directly applying the glamour for relic weapons

dawn mountain
#

I see

#

about buying replicas, I read on some wiki that you can repurchase all relic weapons but they will start at stage 1 again (which i assume is the base one without any glow effects) does this mean that I would simply need to stop the relic quest at the specific point where it has the glow I like the most?

#

and just apply prisms over and over

obsidian patio
#

Yes you can buy the first stage of the ARR relics back from the calamity salvager

#

but you'll still have to do the steps again without any shortcuts

dawn mountain
#

right, so stopping the quest at the stage where I like the look of the weapon and use prisms is the only way I can keep that specific look of the relic

#

I wont get all the stages for glamour use if I complete all the stages of the artifact, is what I assume

obsidian patio
#

You will, with the ability to buy replicas of the earlier stages once you complete that relic

#

!iglam unfinished Bravura Replica

zinc orbitBOT
obsidian patio
#

you even get the unfinished stage as a replica

gaunt moth
#

Dunno if this is the right place to ask this, but this is the state of my account. Do I have to buy Stormblood + Shadowbringers to be able to play on PC? And if yes, is there a bundle that offers (cheaply maybe?) those 2 expansions + game time? I have done many goofs buying the wrong product in the SE shop in the past and I want to make sure I don't do another one sidequest

twilit arch
#

shadowbringers comes with the previous expansions, so all you need to do is buy that to get stormblood

#

Expansions do not come with game time, so you'll have to buy a sub/game card

gaunt moth
#

Thanks a lot!

#

From what I understand I cannot buy the Complete Edition and add the expansions + the game time to an already existing account, right?

twilit arch
#

you could, but it would essentially be a waste since you already own ARR so you wouldn't get the 30 days from it

obsidian patio
#

From what I'm reading buying complete edition with base game registered gives no free days

#

assuming you buy for the same platform

slate arrow
#

Only the base game gives any game time

#

and it's only granted once per platform

gaunt moth
#

I think I got this

#

Thanks everyone!

granite wolf
#

is there a way to change the way my character holds their weapon

obsidian patio
#

should be /cpose when you have your weapon out.

slate arrow
#

if you're talking the combat stance, no

dawn mountain
#

For the atma zodiac weapon, can I do the low level fates? or the ones around level 50

oak ice
#

It wants you to do FATEs in all the various zones

dawn mountain
#

yes, can I cheese it and do the super easy fates that are for level 3 though?

oak ice
#

One drop from each zone

#

Some zones will only have low leveled ones, but you can't get another zone's drop anywhere else

obsidian wren
#

Any fate works

oak ice
#

But yes, if a zone has both lower and higher leveled ones, you can do the low level ones

dawn mountain
#

yeah, i just realized level sync is a thing for fates

stable herald
#

Friends, the master reciepe VI are the last reciepe rank, yes?

twilit arch
#

no VIII is the current final book

stable herald
#

Oh. Bother.

#

Welp. Back to farming

#

Tq!

leaden ginkgo
#

so with fishing, the instructor said if i stand in the spot for too long, the fish will know and won't bite as much, how far do i need to move? can i just a few steps to the left/right?

twilit arch
#

usually can just take a step or two to the side and it'll work

obsidian patio
#

yeah just a couple steps will do

leaden ginkgo
#

and how long is that spot on cooldown from me fishing to much from it? a little confusing

obsidian patio
#

I remember only seeing it past like 30 minutes or so before it gives the message

leaden ginkgo
#

oh! there's a message when you've fished too much at one spot? i just thought it was random and i should swap every few fish caught

warped nest
#

I'm told that it is bot prevention

obsidian patio
#

yeah it basically tells you when the fishes are suspicious/scared

twilit arch
#

Yeah a system message notifies you "The fish sense something amiss"

leaden ginkgo
#

oh oki thank you

obsidian patio
#

Fish: I think that guy's botting

warped nest
#

Obviously the fish realize something is wrong when their friends didn't return from their supposed roller coaster ride

slate arrow
#

can you get the anima crystals as a BLU?

obsidian patio
#

The ones from the FATEs? I don't see why not.

slate arrow
#

hrm.

twilit arch
#

anima fate crystals only care about you having the quest

#

so you should

warped nest
#

It just need you to have the quest active

#

If you are mad enough, you can FATE level 2-3 jobs while farming enough Atma for all jobs with Anima relic

#

The game will let you

leaden ginkgo
#

okay & sorry last question, what does it mean when i'm fishing and there is two !! on my head instead of one !

warped nest
#

Tug strength

obsidian patio
#

it's used for Patience+Precision/Powerful Hookset

#

Precision for tugs with 1 !, Powerful for 2 and 3 !

leaden ginkgo
#

okay i'm only level 9 but I'll keep that in mind thank you ^^

warped nest
#

When you use Patience, you increase HQ chance massively, but normal Hook become crap. You'd need to use Precise/Powerful Hookset to reel in the fish

obsidian patio
#

There are a few fish with !!! tugs that want precision, but they're not something you really fish often

warped nest
#

For low level Fisher, the exclamation mark is still helpful

#

If you want to farm specific fish, you want to remember their tug strength and timing

#

For example, Fish A has weak tug at 10s

#

So if you got nothing after 15s, you are better off reeling in and cast again

#

Instead of waiting for some other fish to bite

radiant brook
#

so i accepted a quest to get an anima weapon, and i was wondering which route is best to go? the weapon or the crystals?

obsidian patio
#

Crystals 100%

#

Getting a Zodiac weapon to skip one step will most likely take longer than completing an anima weapon

warped nest
#

The weapon trade in is just a freebie for players who have farmed Zodiac in ARR

radiant brook
#

oh okay thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

If I fail SB craft quests I can just ask for more materials, with no risk of screwing up, correct?

#

Guess I'll waste a few crystals but that's okay?

fresh lodge
#

Correct

leaden ginkgo
#

Thank god

radiant brook
#

what are the chances to get luminous crystals?

#

for the anima weapon quest

obsidian patio
#

no real percentages, but my worst drystreak when I recently did the Scholar Anima was like 10 fates?

gritty oracle
#

Mine was similar

obsidian patio
#

my average is around 3-4 fates.

gritty oracle
#

It's true RNG. Sometimes you get it on first try, sometimes you gotta grind it for days.

obsidian patio
#

with how much it's been buffed, I doubt anyone could go more than 20 fates dry without being obscenely unlicky

#

If we were talking about original atma drop rate, then I'd agree on it possibly taking days.

gritty oracle
#

But with a level 5+ chocobro and a 10 level advantage (and Scaevan gear) each fate is but a couple minutes

fresh lodge
#

Level advantage and Scaevan gear won't help due to level sync

gritty oracle
#

True, but you do need enough level advantage to be synced

Considering you have to be level 60 to start the relic, and its all HW Fates, you already have the level advantage

wise pelican
#

Sigh, I'm getting tired of this game and I only started about 2 weeks ago. Things like POTD and PVP are dead/hard to get into...

ancient smelt
#

im level 62 and i need a fast way to get 400k

#

so i can do a DNG at level 63 any idea?

quick pecan
#

If you do a world transfer do you transfer your gil over, or do you have to buy things like demimateria and platinum pieces to transfer it over

little swift
#

Depends on how much gil you have but you can bring quite a bit and so can your retainers

surreal rapids
#

how can you progress beyong captain in the grand company?
every source just lists the conditions as "??"
there's like 10 ranks that are inaccessible, seems very weird

little swift
#

Captain currently highest rank

surreal rapids
#

when were the other ranks added?

#

it's a bit unsatifying to see all these ranks in the list that are just unachievable

little swift
#

They are slated to increase them again soon

surreal rapids
#

fair enough, thank you!

hey, returning player here, did they remove the ability to sell to venders?
