Is Anemos the highest stage for Eureka weapons?

twilit arch
#

the final step for the eureka weapon is "X Eureka"

#

anemos is essentially the first step

manic oasis
#

should i still equip scaevan gear at level 76

#

i do 6.5k as mch

slate arrow
#

Scaevan gear is fine

manic oasis
#

okay good dps?

left moth
#

The final eureka step involves upgrade drops from arsenal (which is optional but suggested if for whatever reason you want to complete other eureka weapons)

unreal badge
#

can I even do darkhold on my own./

#

oh nvm

#

the terminal worked

late temple
#

How longs stormblood patch stuff? Can I bang it out in a day

obsidian patio
#

Probably, there are a decent amount of semi-long cutscenes in the second half of the patches

#

But it should take about as long as heavensward patches did

upbeat storm
unreal badge
#

I need a level and a half to reach 50 on ast

#

any suggestions?

obsidian patio
#

Do leveling roulette if you haven’t. After that spam Aurum Vale until you hit 50

twilit arch
#

Exponential Entropy @upbeat storm

unreal badge
#

Yeah I did roulette

upbeat storm
#

ty

unreal badge
#

also, Aurum Vale is toxic T_T

whole wasp
#

Its full of gold

unreal badge
#

is it possible to play through the same story quests as a different class?

narrow parcel
#

Via New Game+, yes, but only HW, SB and ShB

#

No ARR quests yet

unreal badge
#

Oh well HW is what I was hoping to repeat

#

do I have to complete the whole thing to then do it on another class, or can I do it one step at a time?

leaden ginkgo
#

Maybe what you're looking at is only the cutscenes...

#

Can replay most cutscenes from the inn

unreal badge
#

no not the cuscenes

narrow parcel
#

Believe you need to finish all of HW first to unlock New Game+ in the first place, though I'm not too informed on it

twilit arch
#

You need to complete "heavensward" to unlock new game plus

unreal badge

quick pecan
#

how difficult is it (estimate) to find an open large plot for sale

steep heron
#

find one isnt the issue
finding one with an open opportunity is hard

leaden ginkgo
#

Tbh I don't think I've ever seen one be open

steep heron
#

become a fan of standing still for hours waiting at a placard

leaden ginkgo
#

With 40m~ gil just laying around

#

basically, don't dream on it

#

Unless they add new wards, then maybe

quartz shale
#

You’d need to own a house of some kind even then. Large plots would sell out within minutes or hours.

quick pecan
#

o:

#

i have a small but been looking around havent seen any larges just smalls

narrow parcel
#

I feel like large plots would sell nearly instantly cause of relocation

steep heron
#

^

narrow parcel
#

Everyone on the server that doesn't have a large plot (so like 98% of players) will be looking for large plots

#

You'd have to own a house already and be the first of hundreds of people to interact with the sign if you want any hopes of getting one nowadays

whole wasp
#

Or buy an entire FC from another

leaden ginkgo
#

You probably MIGHT see a guy in PF advertising the selling of one

narrow parcel
#

I pretty often see people selling FCs

#

Can't say if they have Large Plots though

leaden ginkgo
#

Since people like to buy them to resell because the housing system is kinda shit

polar cairn
#

how do you unlock nier raid

leaden ginkgo
#

In tomra, there is a questline with a dwarf "NieR" the aether

rugged flicker
#

Is it just me, or does equipment no longer have a field that shows whether or not advanced melding is forbidden?

leaden ginkgo
#

It's just you

rugged flicker
#

Where is it? I can't find it

leaden ginkgo
#

right below job/lvl requirement

#

And above bonuses

rugged flicker
#

Not seeing it...

leaden ginkgo
#

If it's not there you can do it, if it is you can't, gear you get from raids can't be overmelded, un-augmented crafted gear is the only stuff that can be overmelded

rugged flicker
#

Even on Gear where I know it's forbidden I don't see it.

twilit arch
rugged flicker
#

Wait... advanced melding isn't forbidden on Edengate stuff?

leaden ginkgo
#

It is

rugged flicker
#

Oh there it is

#

Missed it the first time

#

So ironworks stuff is okay then

leaden ginkgo
#

Ironworks can't even be melded at all

twilit arch
#

ironworks doesn't have meld slots

little crane
#

Is it worth it to buy a 390 weapon with Allagan tomestones or will I somehow get a weapon another way?

rugged flicker
#

@leaden ginkgo Talking about gathering and crafting stuff

#

They have both materia slots and can be overmelded.

twilit arch
#

crafted gear in general can be overmelded

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah those can be overmelded since they're crafted

queen flame
#

Besides youtube and making characters, is there a way to listen to fem au ra voices?

steep heron
#

If you mean a Scaevan weapon then yeah buy it and augment it

queen flame
#

im having serious trouble finding emote ones

rugged flicker
#

@queen flame You don't need to actually make a new character to listen to the voices.

#

You can go into character creation whenever you want and play around with it.

#

Can even save a character appearance.

little crane
#

oh I messed up my question, what I meant was

leaden ginkgo
#

For specific emote ones you do

little crane
#

Is it worth it to buy a 490* weapon with tomestones of allegory

obsidian patio
#

If you plan on doing savage, generally no.

little crane
#

Is savage the hardest?

steep heron
#

Savage tier 3 is usually hardest if you dont count Ultimates

obsidian patio
#

Besides the ultimate fights, yes

quick pecan
#

if my crafter macro fails all of a sudden

#

is that server lagg?

leaden ginkgo
#

if it's worked before it's you or them

quick pecan
#

yea my crafter macro just failed synthesis after 800 successful crafts

#

D:

leaden ginkgo
#

Then yeah it's probably either your internet lost a few "Packets" and lagged or (and this is usually rare but not totally out of the question) it might of been server lag

#

But if it's not persisting then it's not a huge deal, and if it is from my experience it's usually the internet server provider's end

queen flame
#

question. if I use fantasia, can i use the hairstyles i've unlocked on my previous character?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes hairstyles remain available

#

They do but not for the customization process

twilit arch
#

not during the fantasia remake

leaden ginkgo
#

once it's final then you can go to aesthetician

twilit arch
#

you'll have to go to the aesthetician after you finish with the fantasia to use any previously unlocked hairstyles

queen flame
#

oh, thank fk, i thought they were all gone

#

phew

#

thanks!

leaden ginkgo
#

Just don't fantasia to a hrothgar/viera, they have no other hair options whether you buy them or not

queen flame
#

gotcha

#

thanks!

odd bobcat
#

Should i skip class quest? Or there are some interesting?

leaden ginkgo
#

Always do your class/job quests

#

They are very important to learning all your skills

ornate mango
#

You have to do them

odd bobcat
#

@leaden ginkgo @ornate mango im talkong about skiping lore

leaden ginkgo
#

that's totally just whatever you prefer, some of them rock like Dark Knights and others are Meh like Paladin's

odd bobcat
#

@leaden ginkgo yeah but dark knight is a job storu

#

Class story at least for maruder is meh

#

But warrior looks at least interesting

leaden ginkgo
#

Some of them tie in to the main story

#

Well, Job story

#

In fact I think most of the class quests tie in to the job quest at some point or another

#

But it's more like a "Go on a mini adventure with your old guild leader" or something

proud willow
#

PGL and ROG class quests are pretty good

#

and ACN has Best Cat

odd bobcat
#

Why people hate curious george?

#

Is warrior lore that bad?

proud willow
#

shrug

#

I like him

leaden ginkgo
#

most people don't like the job quests randomly becoming a romcom

#

though the 60-70 quests are a bit better received because at least they dropped all pretenses to the contrary

odd bobcat
#

Romcom?

#

What romcom means

leaden ginkgo
#

romantic comedy

quick pecan
#

If i transfer to another world do i need to buy platinum pieces to take my gil with me o:

twilit arch
#

unless you're somehow over 999,999,999 gil on both characters and retainer

#

no, you don't

green grail
#

isn't it 10 mil per character and 5 per retainer

twilit arch
#

they changed it to be max gil cap

green grail
#

oh nice

opaque pewter
#

Any new Hildebrande in this patch?

twilit arch
#

no

mellow vortex
#

Hey guys, ive always been interested in ffxiv. I tried before up to lvl 26 conjuerer and stopped. Now im back in again but im a working adult now and dont have enough time so I decided to skip ARR and job boost white mage. But I am overwhelmed by everything. Can anyone help me out a bit? Thanks :D

dusky nest
#

well

#

thats what you get for skipping right ahead lol
nothing really to tell you other than watching/reading guides, maybe story summaries of the past expansions and to practice using the practice dummys etc

green grail
#

if you have any specific questions then just ask them here cause "I boosted please help" is pretty vague

sage plaza
#

go through the dungeons

mellow vortex
#

I read story summaries and practiced on dummies. Should i just follow the MSQ and learn slowly from it. Did you guys learn other job skills from experience and videos. Do I just use whatever gear I might get fron msq that are better than the currently provided. Do you use the stores and trading stores often or whether they are good?

sage plaza
#

they'll level sync you, so you'll have less abilities

#

figure out what does what

#

where to put the abilities

#

get a feel for healing vs dps

#

(and discover the majesty that is holy)

little swift
#

your job skip has handed ilvl400 gear, you won't need to make any swaps until you get into shadowbringers

mellow vortex
#

Yea holy is strong, i havent went through any msq in hw yet cuz i spent hours on practicing dummies, rotations and hud settings but still feel confused where to start next

little swift
#

sorry 390 gear*

dusky nest
#

Did you guys learn other job skills from experience and videos
experience pretty much. once you get to know the game and how everything works, its fairly easy to get into other jobs

sage plaza
#

whm really isn't meant to be tried on dummies

#

you don't really have much of a rotation

#

it's dia + stone/glare for DPS

#

so dungeons for the healing experience

mellow vortex
#

yea that was weird as well cuz i was gonna go summoner or bard during my try a yr ago and there were rotations but the guides for whm never mentioned rotations or what

sage plaza
#

which, since you're outleveled and outgeared, should be relatively smooth sailing

little swift
#

in terms of damage you work around keeping your dot (dia/aero) up and you mashing glare/stone on single target

#

whm is a healer

#

you're more priority based rather than rotation for damage

mellow vortex
#

The job skip is lvl 70 and im starting hw, no exp so i wont get dia or blood lily for a while

sage plaza
#

it's aero earlier on

little swift
#

like do you need to premitigate a raidwide

#

shield for TBs

#

etc

#

or nothing happening so your asylum can tick up the tank

#

so throw out damage etc

mellow vortex
#

does regen and medica 2 stack the same regen over time?

sage plaza
#

yes

little swift
#

different regen buffs will appear

#

so you can use both

#

2 whms can use them as well

#

and they stack

mellow vortex
#

when should i use the spell that allows instant cast and the other that makes sure u can get the cast off?

sage plaza
#

surecast almost never

little swift
#

surecast can be used to avoid being knockedback

#

by a mechanic

sage plaza
#

swiftcast almost always saved for raise

#

(when people die)

#

unless you're confident nobody's gonna die

little swift
#

swiftcast if you're confident in your group

sage plaza
#

then do a swiftcast stone/glare for flex

little swift
#

can be used for a cast of holy in big pulls too to get the stun off more quickly

mellow vortex
#

normally its the tanks that go first pull correct?

sage plaza
#

big thing with holy is that the stun duration will be reduced with subsequent effect

#

1st is 4sec stun, then 2sec, then 1sec, then brief interrupt

mellow vortex
#

does holy stun big bosses or not

little swift
#

tanks pull yes, they set a pace, but if you're not comfy you can ask them to slow down

#

most bosses have cc resist

unreal badge
#

wow, uh, doing fates as a healer is slow and not fun

little swift
#

early level dungeons you can stun bosses up to like maybe haukke manor

#

but that wouldn't be your job anyways

mellow vortex
#

so i want to ask, normally where do people get their endgame gear, trade, craft, buy or drops from msq?

sage plaza
#

the endgame raids/tomestone vendor

#

you can start with endgame market board gear if you have the gil

fair vortex
#

As melee dps when is it OK to use limit break? Is it ok to use it on the middle boss of a dungeon when you know it'll refill for the last boss?

sage plaza
#

do it on trash mobs

#

😮

unreal badge
#

how do I get a flying mount

fair vortex
#

What if the bard in the party refused to do that and instead failed mechanics during the last boss because they were typing-lecturing the melee dps about never using LB before the final boss in the dungeon?

mellow vortex
#

so i should slip in holy off cd, when should i slip in assize and confession. also is aero 2 even worth using if i have stone4

sage plaza
#

eat the lost and move on

oak ice
#

Use LB when it deals the most damage

sage plaza
#

assize you use on cooldown

oak ice
#

If that is on a trash pack, good

sage plaza
#

(unless you know enough about the fight to know when it's better to delay)

oak ice
#

It's free damage, not a finisher

sage plaza
#

confession you use when you need extra healing (usually after major partywide damage)

#

aero is a damage over time, you use it in conjunction with stone/glare

mellow vortex
#

ah yes i remember, do i need to buy potions for dungeons, where to buy them, do u bind them onto hotbar?

sage plaza
#

you do not need to buy pots for dungeons

little swift
#

Youre a healer nah

#

Just heal yourself

bright juniper
#

If I wanna bird farm, zurvan, sophia and nidhogg left

#

how many should I roll with?

sage plaza
#

But i always have max ether just in case

little swift
#

If youre 80 2man is doable

#

But 3 or 4 is more comfy

sage plaza
#

Also, use lucid dream on cooldown when possible

little swift
#

Lucid dream and thin air are your best friends as a whm

#

And assize

mellow vortex
#

some people say use lucid dream during thin air when used on low mana

sage plaza
#

if you're at 7k mana and you have lucid dream, use lucid dream

mellow vortex
#

is presence of mind and fluid aura neccessary

little swift
#

Fluid is useless

sage plaza
#

presence of mind is free damage

obsidian patio
#

Presence of mind absolutely

oak ice
#

Fluid, no, presence very yes

little swift
#

Presencd good

obsidian patio
#

as for Lucid+Thin Air, using both at once is generally overkill unless you need to do a lot of AoE healing at the same time

#

I generally pop my first Lucid when I hit 6-7k MP and then keep it on cooldown past that

#

With Thin Air saved for more MP-intensive healing if needed

sage plaza
#

generally if you can line an aero/dia cast, during the cooldown you should pop lucid dream if you have it up

little swift
#

Assize and lucid on cooldosn is usually enough for me

mellow vortex
#

so holy, assize, lucid, afflatus solace, presence used off cd when constant regen on tank and maybe medica2 and divine bension

warped nest
#

Thin Air is basically WHM equivalent of Inner Release

sage plaza
#

you don't really need constant regen on tank

little swift
#

Divine venison on cd is free so go for it

warped nest
#

MT, probably yes, depending on the content difficulty

obsidian patio
#

holy isn't a cooldown

warped nest
#

Holy is AOE attack

little swift
#

Holy is on the gcd

obsidian patio
#

afflatus should be treated as free Cure II or free Medica

#

use them in place of those

sage plaza
#

Oh you also have tetragrammaton

warped nest
#

Afflatus isn't as potent as Cure III iirc

mellow vortex
#

i mean use it once cd is over, didnt mean offgcd

#

tetra only when required?

sage plaza
#

cure III is trap!

#

tetra first!

warped nest
#

Tetra is another oGCD heal

mellow vortex
#

cure 3 is trap?

sage plaza
#

most parties aren't close enough for cure III to be worth it

obsidian patio
#

Cure III requires organization to use effectively.

warped nest
#

Cure III is good for healing a lot in tight spaces

obsidian patio
#

since it has a smaller radius

sage plaza
#

medica II usually better

mellow vortex
#

ahhh, ok, thanks i thought cure 3 was the bread and butter spam

warped nest
#

No

#

Don't

#

Spam any of your heal

oak ice
#

Stack markers and cure 3

sage plaza
#

^ that

mellow vortex
#

then would the cure 1 and cure 2 be used

sage plaza
#

cure 1 never once you get cure 2

#

never

warped nest
#

If you do your job right, you barely use either tbh

mellow vortex
#

ok, deleting it from hotbar

obsidian patio
#

ehh, I'd wait until you get more of the MP tools like Thin Air and Assize to stop using Cure 1

sage plaza
#

unfortuntately, you can't

warped nest
#

We don't mean that either

unreal badge
#

where do I buy gyshal greens?

sage plaza
#

since low level dungeons you don't have cure 2

#

so you need it on hotbar for those D:

obsidian patio
#

the vendors with the racial starting gear sell them

warped nest
#

@unreal badge check on Garlandtools

mellow vortex
#

oh

obsidian patio
#

the closest one to an aetheryte is Bango Zango in Limsa Lominsa

unreal badge
#

on what

warped nest
#

It is a website

oak ice
#

Bango Zango near the Limsa main crystal is my main go to for Gysahl

warped nest
#

Very useful to search for things

mellow vortex
#

also is it possible to mark dummy locations, it is so tiresome to find it everytime with coordinates on the internet

oak ice
#

Just remember Summerford Farm

#

Only one you will need

#

The level on the dummy doesn't matter as long as it's at or below yours, and Summer dummies are level 1

warped nest
#

You can miss if the dummy level is higher than you

#

Which isn't useful if you are trying to practice

mellow vortex
#

Oh yea, when do i use esuna, also do i use f keys or press on party list to choose who to heal

green grail
#

you can esuna debuffs with a white horizontal line above the debuff icon

#

and for targeting heals whatever's more comfortable

#

and i'd imagine pressing anything beyond f4 is pretty uncomfortable

mellow vortex
#

does rescue ever come in hand or only rare moments

sage plaza
#

the rare moments

#

but it feels very good when the opportunity presents itself

oak ice
#

Rescue is a bit of a 50/50. It's an extremely useful skill since someone will always be out of position. But everyone hates having it be used on them

sage plaza
#

most of the time you're just using it to kill someone though

#

issue is latency and the delay between cast and effect

#

so sometimes you see someone out of position, you use rescue, they get to safety, your rescue goes off and pulls them into aoe, they're dead

unreal badge
#

can I mail items between my characters?

obsidian patio
#

technically, no.

#

You can only mail to people on your friend's list, and they have to be online for you to send them a request

unreal badge
#

that's dumb

obsidian patio
#

I don't know if it still works, but there's a roundabout method of adding alts to your friends list If you can somehow lag yourself hard enough for the game to let you log on both of them on separate clients

unreal badge
#

that's super dumb

#

so how can I mail this stuff

#

or I mean transfer*

obsidian patio
#

Free Company Chests

tranquil valve
#

If you're in an FC, you can also just use the Company Chest

obsidian patio
#

You can make an FC and have someone invite your alt to it

unreal badge
#

no one online T_T

rare jetty
#

When i finish the main ARR MSQ should i do the 2.1-2.5 msq ? (Seventh astral era quests) or can i go directly to heavensward when im done with the main lvl 1-50 msq ?

#

Take into consideration i really dislike the msq, at least ARR's and wanna change the peace asap

oak ice
#

You need to do those patch quests to go into HW

rare jetty
#

are you kidding me T.T

oak ice
#

The first roughly half of them is a lot of world building and a bit slower, then the pace picks up considerably when the second half starts setting up for HW

rare jetty
#

well, ty for informing me ❤️

#

but f in the chat for that anyways

warped nest
#

@rare jetty between expansions are epilogue and prologue for each expansion

#

Once you finish HW, you would need to do 3.1-3.5 for the epilogue for HW and prologue for Stormblood

#

ARR epilogue is notorious for being tedious, I would suggest putting jobs or classes on dungeon/roulette queue, then do the MSQ as filler

rare jetty
oak ice
#

Pretty sure that's the quest where you need to find and disable the generators

rare jetty

#

How do you get the banner from this year's event?

slate arrow
#

vendor near the quest start location

wintry chasm
#

@rare jetty be sure to read NPC dialogue during those because they do say what to do

smoky glade
#

Can you only receive adventurer in need reward once a day?

#

Or is it rewarded for as long as the adventurer in need poster(?) is up?

obsidian patio

adventurer in need has no limit, you just need to be the listed role

Cool! Free money! Thanks!

quick pecan
#

Does ward and plot location matter for how big a house gets or are all plots the same size assuming it's under the classification i.e all small's are the same size

wintry chasm
#

The last bit

tranquil valve
#

Correct. All plot sizes under the same classification are the same size. All smalls are the same size as other smalls, etc.

#

Not all plots are the same price though. Some small plots will be more or less expensive than other smalls, depending on the plots location.

leaden ginkgo
#

im trying to figure out how to play my scholar again since it seems like a lot of skills have changed. Is there an upgrade to bio II? I see one at level 26 and 72 and nothing inbetween

obsidian patio
#

That's correct, Biolysis is the upgrade of Bio II

leaden ginkgo
#

do the skills scale with my level? im 70 but it says potency 40

obsidian patio
#

the potency won't change

proud willow
#

It'll deal more damage as your Mind stat goes up though

#

Potency is just how you can compare its damage to your other spells

quick pecan
#

is it possible to transfer data centers or no

#

and if so, do you take your stuff with you

obsidian patio
#

yes you can transfer across datacenters with the home world transfer service on the mogstation

radiant brook
#

to get expert roulette unlocked, you have to play the new dungeon you just unlocked or is it enough when it promts "NOW ACCESSABLE" ?

obsidian patio
#

you need to complete the dungeons first to do the roulette, unless they changed it

radiant brook
#

ah damn. i really dont wanna do that

obsidian patio
#

Why not? Expert roulette is a very easy source of daily Allegory

radiant brook
#

no i mean completing dungeons i just unlocked

#

not thru msq

obsidian patio
#

Well the current expert roulette dungeons are purely from the msq

radiant brook
#

i thought you needed every dungeon to unlock it

obsidian patio
#

Expert Roulette is The Grand Cosmos and Anamnesis Anyder.

#

Level 80 roulette is Amaurot, The Twinning, and Akadaemia Anyder.

radiant brook
#

so expert roulette isnt all the dungeons in one playlist?

obsidian patio
#

No. it's the most current endgame dungeons

oak ice
#

Expert is the latest 2-3 level cap dungeons

sudden wolf
#

It’s only gonna be 2 dungeons now

obsidian patio
#

Mentor Roulette is basically the "almost every single duty in one roulette" roulette

#

besides Coil and Savage

radiant brook
#

alright

#

so for mentor you need to actually complete the dungeon not just get the prompt that its available to play

#

in order to unlock that roulette

obsidian patio
#

yes

radiant brook
#

dang

obsidian patio
#

And it requires completing all content that isn't coil, Savage, or current-expansion extreme primals.

radiant brook
#

this game man lol

obsidian patio
#

I mean, Mentor roulette is quite literally the "Help this group learn how to clear the duty"

#

it wouldn't make sense if you could selectively only get the easier duties to avoid the hard stuff, even if they may be very hard to do with random people that are a bunch of newbies to the duty

radiant brook
#

thats not the problem for me (i dont think helping people learn is bad either) its just that just unlocking the dungeon isnt enough, you actually have to complete it for it to count

wintry chasm
#

Gotta prove you know it

alpine shadow
#

well, you can just unsync all savage content

radiant brook
#

true

alpine shadow
#

oh wait, he said it does not require savage, coil or latest extreme primals

#

so, thats not bad then

oak ice
#

Slightly awkward if the person whose "job" it is to know has never done it before

distant musk
#

Hey iv just started playing and would like to play healer, any tips on leveling I seem to just be spamming aero and stone, will I get anything more or is that gonna be it?

odd bobcat
#

@distant musk do main quest and job quest

#

I mean you will get a ton of skills

narrow parcel
#

You'll eventually get Assize and Holy, but those are the only other damage dealing skills and are AoEs

#

Holy isn't particularly great as it's designed mostly just to stun and Assize has a CD

narrow parcel
#

There is Afflatus Misery actually too, woops; does a lot of damage but only can be used once your job gauge is full

distant musk
#

Right I assume the gauge thing is a passive that ill earn later on during the leveling

narrow parcel
#

You get it at level 30 once you switch to White Mage yeah

#

Afflatus Misery is level 74 though, so until you get that it only serves for more powerful healing spells

distant musk
#

ahh well thats a little while away so I wont need to worry about that in the short term

open coral
#

Afflatus Misery is a little more complicated than just "filling the job gauge".

#

It's a secondary gauge charge. The base gauge is you earn one lily for every 30s in combat (up to a cap of 3) which can be used to cast either Afflatus Solace or Afflatus Rapture.

#

Each spell consumes one lily.

#

After level 74 casting these spells will also add one charge to your Blood Lily, capping at 3 charges.

#

Once your Blood Lily has been fully charged, you will be able to cast Afflatus Misery.

little swift
#

Gauge is unlocked at 52 iirc for whm

distant musk
#

And that uses up all the lilys?

little swift
#

Uses your blood lily charges

#

All 3

distant musk
#

But your powerful heals use the blood lilys? So you normally wouldnt waste them on the Afflatus Misery I assume?

faint flare
#

No

sinful phoenix
#

No, they use your normal lilys

faint flare
#

Your lily heals use a different lily

#

And using lily heals generates a blood lily

#

You need to use 3 lily heals before you can use misery

distant musk
#

hahaha Im well confused now

#

right

#

okay

faint flare
#

There's 2 types of lilies

raw solstice
#

it's something that's a ways off and you get pretty eased into

#

when you gain access to your lily gauge in general it's purely for afflatus solace, a single target GCD heal that uses one lily charge to execute. You get a lily ever 30s while in combat, passively. Later on you get an AoE GCD heal, afflatus rapture, which also costs one of these lilies

#

eventually when you get higher level and have access to afflatus misery, this is a separate thing. Every time you use solace or rapture, it "nourishes the blood lily" and you can see it start to grow on the gauge, separate to your other lilies. When you've used 3 of solace/rapture, the blood lily is fully bloomed, and you can use afflatus misery, a strong AoE GCD spell

#

but yeah, just take it a step at a time as you level, if it doesn't sink in now that's fine, you'll get used to it readily as you level and get the new stuff

distant musk
#

yeah cool thanks for the advise 🙂

#

advice*

sinful phoenix
#

So I've been trying to get through PotD with my Ninja for a while to unlock HoH, but I'm stuck in PotD floor 41-50. I tried queuing yesterday but I didn't get matched and I gave up on waiting after two hours. After that I even tried to use the party finder to create a PotD 1-50 run but no one was joining that either so I gave up on that too after about an hour. Today I've been in the queue again for about 30 minutes, but still no result. Am I just unlucky or is this the reality of trying to reach PotD 50+? sad

oak ice
#

Holy isn't particularly great as it's designed mostly just to stun and Assize has a CD
Until 72, when you get Glare, Holy is worth using when there are 2 enemies

#

2 or more enemies and Holy is an increase in damage to using Stone 4. Turns out it's the same damage at exactly 2 enemies, but yeah, it brings the stun

vernal urchin
#

@sinful phoenix I'd try it again in the weekend when more people will be on

little swift
#

Or put up a party finder to see if there are people at the same floor as you

vernal urchin
#

Once you clear floor 50 you're able to start at 51 so most people do that

sinful phoenix
#

Alright, ty for the advise ascree

patent cave
#

why do prices for crafted weapons fluctuate so high on the market board?

#

im a total newb to crafting

#

but for example the new RDM one fluctuates from 500k to 250k back and fourth

narrow parcel
#

People undercutting followed by people buying the seriously undercut prices to then resell them at the current normal price

patent cave
#

i mean i looked at the prices on the market board for the mats, and was nowhere near 500k

#

like at all

whole wasp
#

Its also normal market fluctuations.

#

As demands increases, price goes up

narrow parcel
#

Actually crafting the items does take a bit more effort than just getting the mats for the neo-ishgardian stuff too

rare sable
#

welcome to market board, you must be new, and yes, that's why you have crafter friend so you can buy the mats and ask them to make it for you

whole wasp
#

Also depends on crafter gear. If they can do it foodless, they would probably help.

patent cave
#

ive just reached end game, so i might start dabbling in some crafting and levelling up other jobs

whole wasp
#

But if they need food/syrup. Thats another cost there.

what, so like a food buff but for crafting proficiency?

last yacht
#

Bit of a strange question, I currently came back to the game from a long hiatus, I am currently on the quest "A Dream Fulfilled" which requires me to have the Hyperconductive Ukonvasara equipped and to talk to the NPC to upgrade it...the problem is I no longer have the weapon. I used the / command to try and locate it but its simply gone, is there any way to get it back, or do I really need to start all the way from the beginning of the quest?

whole wasp
#

@patent cave yup.

patent cave
#

interesting

#

ty

#

i believe there are vendors that sell quest items in capital cities @last yacht

last yacht
#

Are you talking about the calamity salvager? As far as I can see he does not allow me to repurchase the hyperconductive weapon

oak ice
#

Check with one of the Allagan nodes near Ardashir in Asyz Lla, I'm not sure when they allow you to purchase the old weapons, though

#

You're certain you did an /isearch with proper capitalization, though?

raw solstice
#

I'd recommend searching for the item with just part of the name, as well, instead of searching for the entire name of the item

#

since it's easy to just have a small misspelling or something in the full string where it won't find it, whereas if you do /isearch conduct

#

it'll find it just the same

last yacht
#

Yeah, the highest stage weapon Im allowed to purchase is the Replica Ukonvasara, so I bought that and tested the /isearch and it worked but only showed that. I think Im fucked

kindred hound
#

What’s up my dudes? Fresh to FFXIV

#

any tips while I start? Was hoping to build dps

mortal root
#

if i queue for msq roulette before the reset, do i get the reward and then be able to do it again for another reward

#

excellent

raw solstice
#

roulettes matter on time of completion, not time of queue

whole wasp
#

It counts when it ends.

raw solstice
#

so if you queue before and clear after, it counts for the new reset, not the old one

#

you'd have to clear before reset to have it count before reset

whole wasp
#

@kindred hound pick the class that is the coolest for you and just start. I got a wall of text for you if you prefer that too.

You gotta reach 50 with any other class to unlock samurai.

I used to play wow and I was always tank or asked to play tank, left a bad taste in my mouth lol

Tank, and especially gladiator, is pretty brain dead. So you should be good to play for up to 50

just a heads up on samurai

you also need to have stormblood registered to your account to unlock it

Might as well buy the expansions

kindred hound
#

Ya I was gonna ask something to that affect

#

I wa gonna buy the full pack but figured I’d just get the starter edition to try it out

#

Is pretty much every expansion worth it? Can you pick and choose or is it get them all or get none

hybrid hamlet
#

Shadowbringers includes everything else

oak ice
#

50 is the max level for the starter edition, so even if you could unlock SAM in it, you wouldn't be able to do much with it

V happy I joined this discord lol

#

Wait @hybrid hamlet it has them all?

oak ice

Some casual content, but that's really it

hybrid hamlet

Yah

kindred hound

But it’s only like 50)

Yes, only buy Shadowbringers

The whole pack is 80$ for all expansions lmao

If you own the base game

I did the same thing as you lol

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.

#

Could someone tell me what materia i should put in my neo ishguard set for Monk

left moth
#

monk and sam are lower speed builds so crit > direct > det is the rule of thumb

#

rule of thumb being key term

#

8's are the only real option, overmelded and otherwise

zenith geyser
#

I am just now returning to game after about 5-6 years, how is SMN to start off as?

strong citrus
#

SMN has a lot of button bloat. But if you can snag your rotations offline you should be good as gold with it

left moth
#

it's ok but has a steeper learning curve than other casters

zenith geyser
#

So what would be a good starter/relearning class?

strong citrus
#

Honestly it depends on your playstyle.

#

Any class is viable if you learn your rotation.

#

But do you prefer casters or are you open to other things?

zenith geyser
#

I have played WoW, Blade and Soul and MANY other MMORPHS, so at least a wee bit skilled, but i usually prefer ranged

#

But I also like pet classes

strong citrus
#

Yeah the play style is different from most of the MMOs, but pet based would only leave you with SMN and SCH

zenith geyser
#

Whats easier Scholor or SMN?

left moth
#

they are different roles (healer versus dps)

strong citrus
#

Archer/Bard is also a decent starter. Has a lot of DoTs to manage at higher levels but it's relatively easy for learning.

#

SCH is one of the harder healers to master.

#

WHM being the easiest and AST being in the middle.

zenith geyser
#

Hmm, still like the idea behind SMN, lol, even though it maybe rougher, and if i rem a char can play any class over thier career, so if i mess up............lol

strong citrus
#

Yeah you can play with all of the classes on a single character, just some are gated behind expansions.

#

If you are good with rotations, you'd be fine with SMN, just remember DPS queues for instanced areas will be longer than healer or tank.

zenith geyser
#

I think i actually stopped before first xpac was released, lol, so have alot of catching up to do

strong citrus
#

Yeah if you only own the base game you won't have access to DRK, AST, MCH, SAM, RDM, DNC and GNB

#

All of the other classes will be available to you.

zenith geyser
#

I purchaed full inc Shadowlands etc

strong citrus
#

Shadowbringers.

zenith geyser
#

Was more expensive than i thought though, billing claimed $67 with tax, but i got billed 90 something to my card

strong citrus
#

Once you get to the main city in Heavensward you can unlock MCH, AST and DRK. The rest you can access at any time because they start in one of the three original city states

random warren
#

kinda

#

you need to be a certain level and own the xpacs for the respective job

strong citrus
#

They have the expacs.

random warren
#

ah

#

then ye only drk, ast and mch are a pita

#

but they learnt their lesson

strong citrus
#

But yeah I would double check with your receipt to see if you also got like a timecard or smoething

#

It should not have been $90 for the complete edition.

#

Unless you did a collectors edition or something.

zenith geyser
#

Receipt says 67.79

spring magnet
#

what would be considered the fastest way of leveling an alt? beside buying boost

zenith geyser
#

or is there a charge for the cellphone game token?

#

The only thing i can think of is receipt is US dollars and my currency is Canadian

strong citrus
#

There is a like code generator token

#

but it's a physical item.

#

67.79 USD?

#

That would be accurate with tax I believe.

#

is the $90 CAD?

zenith geyser
#

My bill to card was roughly $93

strong citrus
#

Yes but was the USD or CAD

zenith geyser
#

lol, would be nice if receipt would tell me

strong citrus
#

I know the conversion rates are crap. So it's probably CAD

#

Which would be accurate. I believe. You can just use a USD/CAD conversion on google to figure that out.

#

I don't know the rate off the top of my head because I'm in the states.

zenith geyser
#

67.79 US would be 90.90roughly

#

Just used a calculator, lol

strong citrus
#

Andrei what are you trying to level?

midnight slate
#

What are the prerequisites to become an astrologian?
Can I just use a story booster and start playing as it

strong citrus
#

If it's a DPS, you can use Palace of the Dead (But actually go back and learn your rotation for when you use those skills for the higher levels)

#

If it's a healer or tank I'd recommend spamming the highest level dungeon you can for quick queues.

random warren
#

i mean you can but 2 cents you doing yourself a disservice if you skip the story imo

#

but your money so upto you ofc

strong citrus
#

You need to reach the city of || Ishgard ||

#

I can't remember if you also need at least a level 50.

midnight slate
#

So skip to heavensward?

#

Palace of Dead seems slow tbh

#

Done only one run

#

for beginning quests to unlock yes. after that they go to 30

#

Palace of the Dead 51-60

#

Not the full thing.

spring magnet
#

I got a 57 dk

midnight slate
#

There adding new story + aren’t they
If so I can just come back after maxing out my astrologian

random warren
#

entirely upto you

#

we cant tell you how to spend your money

#

only provide the info

strong citrus
#

you mean DRK?

left moth
#

ng+ is already in but replaying ARR is delayed until 5.3 because of changes to arr itself (less trash quests)

spring magnet
#

that one

strong citrus
#

Personally I'd recommend just spamming the highest level dungeon, and doing your daily roulettes/

#

Tanks have fast queues, so you won't be sitting around waiting for a queue to pop.

spring magnet
#

Ah I meant, I want to level my pugilist

#

it's level 23 atm

strong citrus
#

Then yes, POTD will be the fastest way spamming floors 51-60

#

Because queues are longer for DPS.

spring magnet
#

I don't find drk that fun anymore

strong citrus
#

Make sure to also queue in for your daily roulettes.

#

I guess I’ll just start at lvl 1 and get to astrologian then

Hey guys, I’m a returning level 80 player. The last thing I did was beat shadow bringer MSQ. Can anyone help me figure out what I should be doing next? I need better gear before I can do the twinning. Do I go try to find the Nier raids?

strong citrus
#

If a world is full you won't be able to transfer there. Most worlds are standard or congested though.

#

The NieR raid item drop has been lifted and those are I believe ilevel 460.

elder locust
#

WHOA!

strong citrus
#

So that would be a good place to go.

leaden ginkgo
#

so can i transfer in congested?

elder locust
#

that’s the same as the crap I have to save my bad tome stones for

strong citrus
#

Yes you can Pine

#

It just means it will probably have queues to get in, and chances for housing will be lower.

elder locust
#

K, but I’m a tank...so if I’m a tank in level 80 AF gear can I even hope to do the first nier raid?

strong citrus
#

The gear from ShB Gerolt?

elder locust
#

Yeah

strong citrus
#

Yeah I think that's like what i430?

left moth
#

克拉麗莎小姐: gold sacks usually have nice glam (although they are pretty easy to craft these days) but the rare drop is the night pegesus (mount). most of the difficulty is getting to floor 150+ and then risking it for sacks

elder locust
#

I think so.

#

Awesome! Thanks so much for the help!

strong citrus
#

Yeah I think my alt only had the AF gear and I was able to queue in. Depending on if you do raids as well. Gearing up to access the eden raids would be a good idea too.

#

The first tier of Eden 1-4 is also unlocked

zenith geyser
#

Anyone know what Datacenter/server would have closest time to mine? Curr 12:08PM

strong citrus
#

and that gives tokens to turn in for i450 too

#

You'd be looking for an NA data center

zenith geyser
#

Eastern time btw

strong citrus
#

Aether, Primal or Crystal.

zenith geyser
#

I know i tried Midgard, there was a 5hr differnece

strong citrus
#

There is no 5 hour difference.

#

ET and Earth Time are not the same

zenith geyser
#

Nah, i checked local vs server time

strong citrus
#

Server time has nothing to do with regions.

zenith geyser
#

Oh, ok, lol, wasn't sure

strong citrus
#

If you play around mid-day you'd be looking for either NA or EU data centers.

#

But you'll have higher ping going to Chaos or Light.

#

NA Data Centers are most populated in the evenings.

#

But there are still people who play at all times.

There’s ET LT and ST

#

You should enable all three in character settings

strong citrus
#

I mean ST doesn't really do anything.

#

ET is important for nodes and timed stuff.

#

But LT and ET are all I ever use.

fresh lodge
#

ST is just GMT

elder locust
#

Oh man, just watched a video on that first Nier raid. SOOOO many mechanics lol. Gonna take a try or 2 to keep it all straight in my head, but thankfully a lot of it is kind of “common sense” if you have been playing FF14 long enough to be at this point.

leaden ginkgo
#

I haven’t set up the game or anything yet - are there any like perks or free sign up things I can get before logging on the first time ?

pallid tide
#

I just unlocked the Ixali quests, but its not letting accept them. Says they aren't available yet. Do I have to do something else?

left moth
#

@leaden ginkgo the best thing I can think of is getting a refer a friend code off someone (that'll give you feathers to turn in for items or equipment)

pallid tide
#

NVM I figured it out lol

leaden ginkgo
#

I know this may sound that I'm just too lazy to read, but what exact stuff will be transferred if i do a world transfer from another data center?

#

I don't own a house in my current one,

rare sable
#

Everything but house / fc room / apartment I think? You keep items and gils

little swift
#

Relinquish apartment and house first

#

Or you cant transfer

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeey, Thanks for the clarification, there's just too much words in the mogstation that my head is gonna expload.

rare sable
#

Leaving crystal are you? 👋

#

Good luck on the next server T^T

strong citrus
#

It's all for the most part pretty easy John. If you need some friendly faces to run it with feel free to give me a holler. I'll be home around 4:30-5 Eastern and happy to run through the content with you.

whole leaf
#

hello i am new there is problem sastasha

oak ice
#

Long queue?

whole leaf
#

it is difficulty enter that dungeon

#

yea

#

I am jenova

oak ice
#

What class are you playing?

whole leaf
#

server

#

dps

oak ice
#

Yeah, they tend to have longer queues since there are so many

#

You will get in, it's just a question of time

whole leaf
#

I tried 2 times

#

and waited each time 30 mnutes

oak ice
#

All you can do is start the queue and browse memes

wintry chasm
#

That's not normal

oak ice
#

Or test out other functions of the game, like leveling different classes

#

No, 30 minutes sounds like outside of prime time

wintry chasm
#

It's 12 ish there?

#

Midday?

#

Right?

oak ice
#

Ye, should be around 1 PM to 10 AM

wintry chasm
#

That's not a bad time exactly

#

@whole leaf can you go to the duty finder and see what language is highlighted near the top?

whole leaf
#

ok

#

E

wintry chasm
#

Huh

#

Then yeah I guess you're being unlucky

#

I still believe in the idea that 30 minutes is unusually long

#

10-15 mins prime time, maybe 20 a bit off prime time

#

But yeah just do what Platt said since there isn't much to do about it

strong citrus
#

The only other thing I can suggest is see if your FC has someone who heals or tanks and can help with the queue time.

rich bay
#

@whole leaf

What you can also do is go to the duty finder options and enable all 4 language settings, that tends to get you faster queues.

whole leaf
#

ok

open coral
#

YMMV on that. It depends on the language mix for your server.

unkempt marsh
#

I'm not sure how truthful this is, but when I asked, I was told not to do that because queueing in all four languages might match you with someone who only has a rare language for your region selected, which then would make queue way slower

open coral
#

No? There are only four language settings - JEDF. The more languages you have checked, the broader the pool of people you can potentially be matched with is.

quick pecan
#

Which world on aether DC is it easier to find housing in

open coral
#

But it crosses that with your position in your role queue as well.

#

It would only be a detriment if you were the one with a rare language as your only selection. Most people will, at the very least, also check off English in addition to their base language though.

unkempt marsh
#

take it up with this channel circa last year ¯_(ツ)_/¯

open coral
#

Lemme just get in my time machine...

strong citrus
#

Most of our worlds are standard/congested on Aether.

#

So it's relatively even right now. I'd avoid Gilgamesh if you want housing

#

Sarg almost never has housing either except for PF sales for an exorbitant price

Anyone know a hunt discord ? (i'm on lich)

I think Cactuar has some housing, but not a ton. I haven't looked recently though.

cedar saddle
#

Can I use New game+ to play heavensward with my friend who's a new player and just started Heavensward?

open coral
#

No. NG+ is solo.

#

It doesn't reset your actual game progress.

thorny nacelle
#

Hey guys, quick question. If i already have the 480 crafted fending set, would it be worth it to update to the new eden verse 480 gear, or should i am for the cristarium gear and just use the tokens for another class?

strong citrus
open coral
#

That's kind of personal choice. On one hand, stats are a thing if you're min-maxing, so you'll want to take a look at those.

#

Also there's the glamour to consider.

strong citrus
#

There are specific stats that are necessary between using both the Eden gear and the Crystarium gear.

#

The balance discord should have your BiS

open coral
#

If you don't care about stats or glamour though, then it doesn't really matter which one you use. Just go with whatever you like the best.

thorny nacelle
#

@silent harbor can i get an invite to the balance disc?

what's the best thing to do to old poetic sets(will never be used again due to level cap)

open coral
#

If you like the appearances, you can toss them into your glamour dresser. Otherwise, trade them for GC seals.

onyx kiln
#

where is this shield from? my retainer brought it to me through quick exploration.

jaunty jay
#

Easier to look up the name on gamerescape

leaden ginkgo
#

do you have to buy shadowbringers 2 times if you want it on both ps4 and steam?

faint flare
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

ah man that's weak ty for the answer

strong citrus
#

Just wait for it to go on sale.

#

It goes on sale all the time.

wintry chasm
#

@cedar saddle You can but I'm not sure what value there is with just doing quest objectives with them with you doing them as well and not just following

junior yacht
#

if you actually have the item it'd be easier to just google it

#

or ask Kupo Bot

outer plank
#

when was the last time they reruned the ff11 event?

open coral
#

A couple of years ago, I think?

outer plank
#

yikes

open coral
#

Crossover events are not a guaranteed occurrence. And the chances of them rerunning are typically pretty low.

#

Which makes me sad because I have alts that I created after the FFXV event last year.

#

Every one of my characters requires a nice car.

static yacht
#

Though they DID confirm that they were going to redo the youkai watch event some time

mortal root
#

hey guys im stumped rn, im trying to do ananta beast tribe quests and i've done my first 3 but now idk where to go for the next 3

static yacht
#

What do you mean?

open coral
#

You only get 3 per day.

#

For each tribe

static yacht
#

You can only do 3 quests per beast tribe per day

wintry chasm
#

You only get 3 per day unless you rank up where you can do another 3 that day

static yacht
#

UNLESS IF AND ONLY IF

#

You rank up

#

Then you usually get then from the same person

#

Or someone in the same area

#

(For ARR ones)

open coral
#

And if you rank up, a bluequest will appear somewhere nearby.

#

Which you'll need to complete before the next set of quests will appear.

mortal root
#

aw man i really wanted the nails today

how the hell do I get in there lol

twilit arch
#

talk to the npc near the hell's lid entrance in ruby sea

tawdry otter
#

someone know the best way to leveling the crafter?

odd bobcat
#

can a party do same quest?

#

main quest?

twilit arch
#

you can be in a party while doing most of the main scenario quests, but there's a few that require you to be solo

static yacht
#

@tawdry otter ishgard restoration

#

Level 15 onwards

#

Crafting log til then

twilit arch
#

namely the ones that require you to do solo instances

static yacht
#

Suppliment with grand company turn ins

#

And moogle / namazu quests if tired

#

Leve quests if rich and have a lot of leves

silent harbor
#

Or just make the items for the leve quests

#

Also the Ixali are the low level crafted beast tribe

forest laurel
#

why does my character keep doing the chocobo summon in g-pose when I'm just standing still?

#

I haven't even used the summon when trying to set it up

hybrid hamlet
#

gpose repeats the last action you have done before activating it

narrow parcel
#

You can do /sit before you enter GPose to reset it so you don't do any actions during it

forest laurel
#

that fixed it, thx

elder locust
#

How’s the general success rate of the copied factory for you guys? I’m gonna be trying it for the first time tonight, and I’m studying the mechanics. I’m a little concerned about how a DF group is going to handle it.

twilit arch
#

its a 24man so shouldn't really have that much trouble clearing it

elder locust
#

Awesome. That was my hope

#

I heard that some of the ivalice raids went really badly, and I’ve only done like the first one and couldn’t manage to clear the second with a group. I was a little paranoid this might be like that.

twilit arch
#

that's pretty much only at release

elder locust
#

Cool

plush pebble
#

is the game likely to go on sale again?

oak ice
#

We don't know

#

There aren't really any big sale "holidays" until the summer

#

That I can think of at least

strange coral
#

Maybe Spring sale on Steam

plush pebble
#

ahh it's just enix had a massive sale and ff14 was the only game not included

#

i capped out at 50 and it turns out I have an addiction

fiery urchin
#

if i retire my chocobro from racing do i get his pedigree paper back?

#

or do the casino keeps it

hybrid hamlet
#

If i decide to change my grand company

#

I will have to do the hunting log and the trials all over again?

fiery urchin
#

1 time per gc

twilit arch
#

to rank up, yeah

fiery urchin
#

i retired my chocobo from racing and the npc didnt give me the retired chocobo registration wtf

#

i got scammed

#

wheres my chocobro 😡

twilit arch
#

what level did you retire

fiery urchin
#

43

#

or smt

#

he was pedigree 6

#

[2:24 p.m.]Adder is now property of the Manderville Gold Saucer.

#

😡

twilit arch
#

double check by doing /isearch retired

fiery urchin
#

its only finding up to my retired chocobro of pedigree 5

#

the one I just retired is nowhere to be seen

#

huh...

twilit arch
#

actually....from that text it sounds like it wasn't rank 40 then

fiery urchin
#

you can NOT retire a choco thats -40 tho

#

can you?

twilit arch
#

yes you can

fiery urchin
#

oh shit

#

can you

twilit arch
#

but you get nothing from doing so

fiery urchin
#

i s2g i saw 43

twilit arch
#

becoming property of the gold saucer means it wasn't

fiery urchin
#

well shit

#

i wanna become property of the gs too

twilit arch
#

Are you certain you weren't looking at the rating?

fiery urchin
#

idno bro

#

im dumb

#

w/e ima make a new one, does it take forever to get a pedigree 9 chocobro? i just want the mask atm

twilit arch
#

hm, not forever

#

still a decent time sink but its a lot better than before

#

might take a few days depending on how much you're willing to buckle down and race

fiery urchin
#

mkay

#

thank you kael 3rd worst xcom wryn

twilit arch
#

np

glad pewter
#

How many days does it take to get the porkie mount in Il Mheg?

#

Doing all the reputation daily quests

twilit arch
#

should be about 2 and half weeks or so

sonic sapphire
#

Hey! Not really sure where to post that since it's kinda weird but!
Looking for people on potd floor 71-80 till 100

silk summit
#

What determines the chances of a potential overmeld? Is it just the amount of materia already melded or does the level of materia also factor into it?

faint flare
#

Both

twilit arch
#

the level of materia plus the slot

#

so 5th slot is going to be the lowest chance, always

obsidian patio
#

Like 7% with a grade 7

twilit arch
#

its between 16% (grade 1) and 5%(grade 7)

silk summit
#

I don't suppose there's a resource with the exact percentages? I'm not sadistic enough to go for a full overmeld but I'd like to know my chances

twilit arch
#

click on the materia section, it'll bring up the melding window

twilit arch
#

percentages will be off to the right

stray saffron
#

just don't be like me when overmelding and forget you can overmeld a grade 8 in the first additional slot

#

then get to the last one and notice you fucked up big time and waste a bunch of time and money!!!

silk summit
#

Yeah I'll probably get into the serious overmelding once the new crafter/gatherer gear comes out, but for now it's not worth it to me.

#

Nice, I can get to exactly 800 gp with some easy melds

narrow glacier
#

Word of caution, if you plan to craft the new gear that comes out in 5.3 you're going to need some reasonable stats which may require overmelding to achieve in the first place

#

Buying the off the MB is an option as well, but day 1 pricing will most likely be very high

silk summit
#

I'll figure it out when we get there.

#

Hopefully we'll end up getting a better way to get crafter materia.

junior yacht
#

🤷 they've already been pretty generous with the new extraction system

#

back in my day making materia meant destroying the gear in the process!

random warren
#

back in my day

sonic sapphire
#

Question to monks.

What's used more often (what gets to max charges more often usually) the forbidden chakra or tornado kick?

random warren
#

failing to overmeld meant destroying the gear

junior yacht
#

forbidden chakra is used constantly

silk summit
#

That's true, I stockpiled an okay amount from all the crafting I had to do to make the facet gear

junior yacht
#

tornado kick is very situational

sonic sapphire
#

Thought so, tornado kick needs 3 full rotations

#

wait, tornado kick is not used when on max lightning then?

junior yacht
#

only in certain situations

#

most of the time the lost skill speed isn't worth it

sonic sapphire
#

nod nods

junior yacht
#

whereas there is literally no penalty for using Forbidden

sonic sapphire
#

I was trying to figure out my hotbars and such

#

and I'm not reaaally sure where to put them both

#

but I think forbidden will go on a quick use key

#

while tornado kick just sits on a ctrl key or smth

junior yacht
#

probably wise

sonic sapphire
#

meditation is not used unless out of combat

#

or high waiting times for mechanics and such where you dont' hit

#

right?

junior yacht
#

yes

nimble holly
sonic sapphire
#

oh well, i guess tornado kick is used on perfect balance too

random warren
#

no igor

#

just one of them

#

like 1-10

#

or 21-30 etc

onyx kiln
faint flare
#

Crafted gear can be overmelded

#

Crafters do it

hot eagle
#

wondrous trail, 3 lines or mb

#

or u overmeld xD

faint flare
#

Crafted gear has "invisible" slots in it and crafters can force materia in. If you don't have crafters levelled you can always use Request meld on someone who does (ask first tho)

#

Its RNG if it goes in

#

And failure destroys the materia

hot eagle
#

but overmelding can be a bit of a pain since it's all rng

faint flare
#

3rd slot is 17% with T8s

#

And it only goes lower

slate arrow
#

Alternatively, you can buy ornate gear with wonderous tails

#

which is also RNG hell

faint flare
#

(unless you use lower grade materia but ots a waste not to use 7s and 8s)

Hello! Please tell me, now Cerberus has a buff on experience. Having reached level 30, I received 15 days of subscription as a gift, and when will I get 1kk gil? I read somewhere that, along with a gift subscription, they also give out gils. Thx♥

green grail
#

the gil is only for new worlds, and there currently aren't any

zinc inlet
#

Just subs?

#

okey 😦

green grail
#

and double exp, yeah

And how long does this buff last and can I track how much longer it will last?

Until you hit level 70

#

This is a dumb question but... how do you fish in The Clutch? It's a fishing hole on the far east side of Central Thanalan that no matter where I stand at the water's edge, the Cast button never becomes available to hit.

#

no @hybrid hamlet

#

it's active for all jobs under 70 as long as the server is preferred, or for 90 days @zinc inlet

is samurai maiming or striking gear?

twilit arch
#

striking

#

maiming is dragoon

dawn mountain
#

what level can you start farming the genji set?

green grail
#

70 but it's probably not easy to farm as it's from a high difficulty raid from last expansion, so there's kinda no reason to do it other than glamour (which most people aren't really fond of for the tier) and requires a bunch of people and basic knowlege of pretty convoluted mechanics

clear shoal

Is there a way to delete/discard the Promise Wristlets?
