My char name is Alexandra Florentine on there btw

odd bobcat
#

how do i organize my stuff

little swift
#

@odd bobcat that's pretty vague but

#

toss out or vendor sell whatever you don't immediately need

#

desynth items if you can and sell those items as well on marketboard

#

sort things using your retainers and chocobo saddlebag

#

im assuming you weren't asking for right click sort

open coral
#

I was gonna say - right click sort is how to organize your stuff 😄

little swift
#

i knew you were gonna say that as soon as i saw you typing aura angrymiqote

open coral
#

I aspire to inspire self-awareness in everyone ^_^

#

But seriously. Right click sort if you're just looking to quickly classify everything in the active inventory/armory/saddlebag/retainer space. Or if you're looking to get things even more organized, only deposit specific types of items onto certain retainers.

#

Like I have one retainer dedicated to low level gear, one to tomestone/raid gear, one to crafting materials, and one to ShB gear, materials, and materia.

leaden ginkgo
#

hey guys any place where i can see useful macros for my job?

#

for example macroing 0GCDs into commonly used skills, like on warrior i forget to use raw intuition a lot i feel like

obsidian patio
#

Which job?

leaden ginkgo
#

so i guess warrior

slate arrow
#

I guess a nascent flash macro

#

otherwise not really

leaden ginkgo
#

is it not worth macroing raw intuition? dont i want it off CD?

#

to use it

obsidian patio
#

Nascent is better than raw most of the time

leaden ginkgo
#

ahh im still lvling warrior

obsidian patio
#

But if you mean macro to automatically use it, don’t do that

slate arrow
#

when I say macro nascent flash i mean like

#

to assist targeting a friendly team mate

#

combat macros suck if you have to macro timers and everything due to both wait limits and macro limits

#

such as how macros cancel out other active macros

wintry chasm
#

Yeah the only macros I feel comfortable to endorse are raise macros so you can tell the party who you are raising, ground based aoes like salted earth to cast it quicker, and probably something like weird astro card macro systems to put cards on people easier.

little swift
#

oh and crafting macros

obsidian patio
#

Yeah most of my battle macros are ones around placing on the ground or party-member based

leaden ginkgo
#

When is SHB gonna go on sale?

slate arrow
#

not for a while

#

maybe during the steam summer sale for a steam copy

#

otherwise

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

odd bobcat
#

@little swift i thought there were macros to insta organize my stuff

little swift
#

there are definitely macros to do that

#

stuff like this is available

#

/isort

odd bobcat
#

can i sell colibri pink die?

#

or are they rare?

hybrid hamlet
#

do you use your chocobo saddlebag?

little swift
#

if it doesn't have untradeable

#

you can trade it away

hybrid hamlet
#

You can story the items you want there

little swift
#

dyes can be repurchased for the most part

#

or made with crafters

#

but the general purpose ones are a bit more rare

odd bobcat
#

how the macro work ?

little swift
#

so maybe hold onto those

#

you make the macro

odd bobcat
#

that specific code

little swift
#

and you execute it like any other button

odd bobcat
#

yeah but it looks you create an ai to organize your itens

little swift
#

you can either create a macro that executes all of those at once

odd bobcat
#

other macros makes more sense

little swift
#

its under user macros

#

or you can type them in individually

odd bobcat
#

yeah im using one , but the macros I saw were like pressing a butons in an order

#

this one looks more complex

#

thatr is why im asking

oblique aurora
#

Daily roulettes ordered by most to least exp?

hybrid hamlet
#

Raids, msq scenarios, 50/60/70, leveling, trials and guildhests

#

I guess

faint flare
#

50/60/70 barely gives any xp

oblique aurora
#

I know that alliance gives a ton but how about normal raids?

obsidian patio
#

It’s more along the lines of MSQ > Leveling/alliance > trials > normal > 50/60/70 > guildhest

hybrid hamlet
#

oh yeah raid mobs don't give exp

oblique aurora
#

Would normal raids give as much as trial?

hybrid hamlet
#

msq first

oblique aurora
#

Already did msq, this is more about leveling alts

odd bobcat
#

what are trials?

open coral
#

Trials are single boss fights not in a series.

#

Like Ramuh or Odin

#

As opposed to Normal Raids which are a series of 12 single boss fights connected by a storyline - specifically Alexander, Omega, and Eden.

mint shale
#

@wintry chasm Can I get the salted earth macro? How should I go around creating 1 for it?

static yacht
#

/micon "Salted Earth"

/ac "Salted Earth" <t>

open coral
#

If you don't want to use the "" around the action name, you can also use the auto translate function to insert it.

mint shale
#

so basically it places salted earth onwhoever you're targeting. Got it

#

does it work if i target myself?

open coral
#

It does

mint shale
#

thanks!

open coral
#

Because if you're targeting yourself, then you still have a valid target as defined by the system.

mint shale
#

definitely a lot faster. I just unlocked salted earth and realised i have to place it down..unlike PAL's DoT aoe

obsidian patio
#

You can use <me> to self-target yourself

static yacht
#

Technically

#

Macros with always have a slight delsy

#

Delay?

open coral
#

You can also make it so that instead of placing it on your <t>arget, it gets placed on a specifically ordered party member.

static yacht
#

Delay** compared to casting manually

open coral
#

By using <1> through <8> instead of <t>

mint shale
#

i see. thanks! Could use that for certain buff or healer related skill i bet

open coral
#

If it's a single action, it shouldn't have any delay of cast.

mint shale
#

ooh like sacred soil

open coral
#

It's only combination macros that should have a delay

static yacht
#

Doesnt it get messed up if you double weave?

open coral
#

Pretty sure that's only if it has multiple actions.

#

I haven't seen any delays when using my "cooldown timer" macros, which are just /ac and then /wait until the cd is up to /echo a <se> at me

#

But I also only use those for healing cds

#

I don't generally use macros for dps actions.

#

Or dps jobs

onyx kiln
#

just noticed how in the chat, it says "Your Culinarian desynthesis skill increases by X.XX" is there a seperate level for desynthesis?

mint shale
#

yes

open coral
#

Yes

mint shale
#

you can check it by hovering over the DoH names in your character sheet

#

what are some of the healing CDs you have on macro, Aura?

onyx kiln
#

and i guess the only change is that i raise the odds of me getting more rare stuff when i break down items

open coral
#

I have cd /echo macros to tell me when Thin Air, Temperance, and Lucid Dreaming are off cd.

#

They're basically simple macros that look like this:

/micon Temperance
/ac Temperance
/wait 60
/wait 60
/echo Temperance is up <se. 1>

mint shale
#

ooh lucid dreaming seemslike a good skill to have a reminder on

#

why 2 /wait?

open coral
#

Because the /wait command only measures up to 60s, and Temperance has a 120s cd

mint shale
#

ooh

open coral
#

If you do /wait 120 it will execute the final /echo command after 60s

mint shale
#

thanks! very helpful

open coral
#

Lucid is easy because it only has a 60s cd

mint shale
#

@onyx kiln I believe so

#

sounds like worth using it for aether flow too. Thanks!

open coral
#

Yeah. I find them useful because it lets me put an audible cue (you don't have to use <se. 1>, there are something like 24 effects, and I use a different effect for each spell) so I don't have to keep monitoring my longer cds to know I have them available.

rugged flicker
#

Can you get a dragon from Ruby Extreme?

open coral
#

Yes

rugged flicker
#

Nice. Is it ruby colored? 😮

open coral
#

Naturally

mint shale
#

Do you have a separate chat window just for Echoes? noticed people use echoes a lot

open coral
#

No. /echo only reports to you, so another chat window isn't really necessary.

patent echo
#

Why are we limited to 4 chat windows and what are you going to do to increase that number?

obsidian patio
#

🤷‍♂️

patent echo
#

literally QoL upgrade

#

"literally"

obsidian patio
#

We’re not SE. we can’t say if/when they’ll add more chat windows

patent echo
#

i know.

#

whoops

#

this isnt the rant channel

#

/rant

hybrid hamlet
#

Is there a way to increase the number of quests shown in the duty list?

twilit arch
#

sadly no

hybrid hamlet
#

Oh dang 😕

steep heron
#

Yeah 5 is the limit

sturdy mason
#

is it easier/better to clear custom deliveries for gathering scrip with fisher or BTN/MIN?

steep heron
#

Easier with btn min

twilit arch
#

Btn/min is probably going to be easier

steep heron
#

Fisher needs bait and some fish need weather and time on top of rng

twilit arch
#

Cos fisher is rng, even if you can swing it a bit in your favour using patience

steep heron
#

If you want yellow scrip mainly than Voyage fishing is a ton of em

Fishing is terrible wearycarby

Waaaay too much RNG and time sink for my taste

twilit arch
empty parrot
#

Is it possible to clear e5s-e8s savage without doing their normal version?

twilit arch
#

no

#

you can't even unlock 5-8s without doing normal mode

empty parrot
#

Yeah thought so

sturdy mason
#

I'm told there are other books besides the level 80 BTN/MIN/FSH books. Are there other Splendors Vendors I get those from? Do I even need them?

twilit arch
#

the other books are just for the lower max levels

#

You don't necessarily need them unless you want to go back and gather hw/sb legendary nodes

sturdy mason
#

I haven't seen any lvl 80 recipes require those retroactively

#

I guess they are deprecated?

twilit arch
#

they're probably not as useful if you're only focusing on shb related crafts, yeah

queen flame
#

For DNC in pvp, does anyone know which skill turns into "Pirouette" after casting Steps?

#

I can't seem to find it...

#

OH

#

NVM

#

LOL

#

carry on

hybrid hamlet
#

Any clues?

#

Chest/gloves/boots only

twilit arch
#

chest is scion liberator's jacket, gloves and boots are replica/high allagan

hybrid hamlet
#

Thank you very much!

clear warren
#

hey everyone. i have a question.
i have ps4 version with 20 something days remaining.
i know i have to buy on pc to play it there.
if i buy a pc version NOW.
will i be able to play on both places?
and
will the days remaining 20 get added to the 30 i get from buying the pc version.?
basically are the subscrtipion days different for platforms?
thx

willow marlin
#

Subscription days are the same but you need a new license for the PC version

#

The subscription days may be added at the end of the 20 days but check the conditions for it.

random warren
#

you will get another 30 days for applying a brand new base version to pc

#

the subscription is account not platform based

#

if you're subbed on ps4 you're good to go on pc

#

you obviously just need to buy the game again on pc/mac

clear warren
#

@random warren @willow marlin thx
but what im wondering. that i dont want to waste a 30 day subscription.
i.e. i hope they wont be parallel. and get added together.
because i will eventually shift to PC sure.
but what if i stick to ps4 for 25 days. i dont want to waste "25 pc days" coz of that
(and yea im just excited to buy it now instead of waiting ps4 subs to end)

random warren
#

you wont

#

if you bought a new pc license right now

#

the 30 days would be added on

#

so youd get 55 days

willow marlin
#

Aye

clear warren
#

thx!!!

willow marlin
#

Blacksmith and armorsmith for lancer/dragoon I believe

obsidian patio
#

Dragoon weapons are Carpenter

#

Either way you’ll want to level up pretty much all 8 crafters besides maybe culinarian due to recipes using items made from other crafters

#

A chest piece made by Armorer could use stuff made from itself, Leatherworker, Goldsmith, and Alchemist

timid musk
#

does anyone have a good swiftcast + raise macro?

obsidian patio
#

While I don’t recommend them, the basics are something like this
/ac swiftcast
/wait 1
/ac raise
/p raising <t>

open coral
#

That's basically the macro I use

obsidian patio
#

Generally not good to combine multiple actions in a single macro, due to the wait timer. If anything I’d just have raise in a macro by itself with a message saying who you’re raising

open coral
#

The trick with the /wait is to make sure to not cast anything else until you're certain its executed properly.

#

In 2-healer content, that's usually fine because the other healer can pick up the slack.

#

It can be a little sketchier in 1-healer content though, so you have to be careful about it.

timid musk
#

so it would be a decent idea to just raise normally during light parties then

#

thats p fair and makes sense

open coral
#

Or manually hit Swiftcast then Raise

#

That's nominally more effective than macroing the two abilities together.

timid musk
#

true, i'll keep that in mind

open coral
#

It was mentioned in discussion earlier that the best use of macros is 1.) on Raise to let people know who you're reviving, 2.) as a cooldown alert with /echo, or 3.) to cast a spell (particularly ground effects) on a specific target.

timid musk
#

ah ok thats good to know, thanks!

thick bolt
#

can I get to floor 50 with random que in POTD? I was told I couldn't

latent sluice
#

do BLU not get more exp from mobs in dungeons? Is it ONLY in the overworld?

thick bolt
#

ye

#

don't do dungeons just kill mobs

obsidian patio
#

You can reach floor 50 with matched groups.

#

though the floor 50 boss is very punishing if you make mistakes

thick bolt
#

okay, thank you

leaden ginkgo
#

Floor 50 boss is look away when you see the eye

#

Done contentcarby

obsidian patio
#

There's a bit more than that. >.>

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh yeah, hit it until boss is dead 🤣

obsidian patio
#

...

robust magnet
#

question, wht should I be melding my Neo-ishgardian tank and healer gear with? Balance only lists the Eden verse gear afaik.

obsidian patio
#

Basically, you want to make sure to not get hit by any AoEs the boss does or a rune on the ground will light up, which powers up one of her attacks.

#

If all enough runes are lit up then it will most likely kill everyone, with 3 usually being enough to kill people depending on aetherpool levels

#

@robust magnet Follow the meld priorities for your class. The general tank one is SkS to desired GCD tier if needed > Crit > DH if you don't play warrior > Det

#

Healers want Piety to comfort level > Spell Speed to desired GCD (I think Scholar wants like 2.42 or something) > Crit > Det or DH depending on how confident you feel in your healing

robust magnet
#

so Det if I do plan to play warrior, over DH?
Yeah I asked once in balance bout piety and the neo-ishgardian set. I got kinda laughed at when I asked if I should meld some more into it with already 2300 piety lol.

obsidian patio
#

Yes, as Direct Hit as a meld is useless during Inner Release.

#

2300 is a lot of piety already

robust magnet
#

thats the default value on neo-ish healers.

#

;-;

twilit arch
#

then ignore melding piety

obsidian patio
#

yeah this tier has a lot of piety on gear

#

Like, every weapon in 5.2 for healers has piety on it.

robust magnet
#

alright I'll try to start melding those stats in. Is there such thing as "too low" of a skill/spell speed?

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Unless your job has a set sks they like

#

For alignment

#

So for some

obsidian patio
#

The tanks in general want around 2.35-2.40 depending on the job

empty parrot
#

Would anyone remember at what level does the novice hall gear get replaced?

obsidian patio
#

I think the melee DPS don't really care?

faint flare
#

I think drg wants a tiny bit?

obsidian patio
#

Ranged don't care, while Dancer and I think Machinist want to try to avoid it for alignment purposes

#

SMN/RDM don't really want it, while BLM makes good use out of it because all of their damage is in GCD skills

twilit arch
#

well

#

more like smn/rdm aren't really interested in it but its not the end of the world

thick bolt
#

Quick anyone Black mage or Ninja GO!

faint flare
#

Black mage

thick bolt
#

Done

faint flare
#

EXPLOSIONS

thick bolt
#

thank you

robust magnet
#

okay but Naruto running

faint flare
#

But big boom booms

robust magnet
#

gottem.
depends what you prefer to do, complicated combos or explosions.

#

Isn't BLM one of the most simple/ lowest APM classes?

obsidian patio
#

If we're counting tanks/healers too, then WAR and WHM are pretty simple

faint flare
#

Simple rotation but its complexity is positioning to do said rotation

obsidian patio
#

but in terms of just dps then yeah, along with maybe Dragoon too

robust magnet
#

where does DRK and SCH fit on the spectrum for that?

faint flare
#

Drk is super simple...considering you only have 1 combo

#

And you just need to press flood/edge every 30s

leaden ginkgo
#

Well so long as you're not full mp it's fine

faint flare
#

SCH is more complex cause aetherflow and fairy management

obsidian patio
#

DRK's burst can be a bit spammy on buttons, but outside of that they're fairly simple

robust magnet
#

I see.

#

Also you said "GCD Tier" is there a list of what tiers that is? currently at 2.35

obsidian patio
#

!faq stats

zinc orbitBOT
robust magnet
#

So I'm looking at the graph, but not sure what exactly im looking for.

obsidian patio
#

For the Skill Speed/Spell Speed table, it shows how much of those changes the GCD for various skills

#

The 1620 is the amount that comes from gear and not the base 380 from being level 80.

robust magnet
#

sitting at 1852 atm skill speed, isn't the GCD my recast timer on skills like hard slash?

obsidian patio
#

yep

robust magnet
#

hmm.

empty parrot
#

Can quick synthesis craft item in HQ?

twilit arch
#

yes

obsidian patio
#

do note it's random

#

so if you need the item to be HQ it's better to do it yourself

empty parrot
#

Thank you!!

#

Another question, can you mail someone on your friend list but on a different server/world? Want to send my friend a gift but they're offline

glad pewter
#

is eulmore always this laggy?

obsidian patio
#

fairly certain they have to be on your world

raven sage
#

You can only mail people from your world yeah

obsidian patio
#

Lots of people like to hang out/AFK there, and it's near the start of a new patch so there's a lot of people currently

leaden ginkgo
#

Guys ive heard that crafting in this game is fun but despite playing on and off for 2 years, i never started. Now i dont even know how to begin??? I want to be able to meld/pentameld in the future for endgame gear

obsidian patio
#

You can unlock the crafting classes in the starting city-states.
Limsa Lominsa has Blacksmith, Armorer, and Culinarian.
Gridania has Leatherworker and Carpenter.
Ul'dah has Goldsmith, Weaver, and Alchemist.

leaden ginkgo
#

I see, should i worry about synergy ie mixing/matching wrong ones?

obsidian patio
#

Crafters don't share skills anymore

#

However it's still recommended to level them up together so they can share equipment and craft materials for each other.

leaden ginkgo
#

If you wait until Ishgard you'll be able to level each one separately 😄

#

Which I really recommend. Trying to level everything at the same time might be a pain, although easier if you do actual crafting or try to follow the quests

#

@leaden ginkgo im lvl 80 and one of the main reason i want to start crafting is to unlock Scripts for Enie at Ishgard

#

@leaden ginkgo Oh, you get these scrips with the Ishgard restoration

#

So basically you'll be leveling up and earning scrips at the same time

rare sable
#

Ishgard fates would be back Soon

#

Its a must attend (cause free 75% exp + 1k scrip if they didnt nerf it)

finite lodge
#

how can my friend visit my apartment?

#

we cant figure it out even with google

twilit arch
#

tell your friend the ward number and have them teleport to the housing zone

rare sable
#

Or just .... estate setting enable guess visit & teleportation

#

Then they can right click your name on friend list and estate tele

#

#

for WHM melding do i go crit > sps. > det

#

or crit > det >sps

nimble holly
#

when can you swap to a new class (what level or quest?)

#

my friednd started as the wrong class -_-

twilit arch
#

you need to complete your lvl 10 class quest

obsidian patio
#

@leaden ginkgo Crit > Det > DH if you think you got enough healing > SpS

proud willow
#

You also have to travel to the city that has the guild for the class that you want, which is something you should ideally put off until the MSQ naturally takes you there at level 15

#

Anyone around 70 on aether wanna dungeon spam for leveling?

rugged flicker
#

What does it mean when a fishing location on FF14Angler has a fish icon with a shiny bit on it like on here:

obsidian patio
#

I think that refers to fishing holes that need the Gulleye trait?

rugged flicker
#

Well these are 2.0 fish pond, it could be fisheye but I still don't get what exactly fisheye is supposed to do?

twilit arch
#

yes, its a hole that requires a gulleye trait

is neo-ishgardian gear worth buying from the MP?

you might also want to find a crafter that wants to craft all the pieces for you, and to give them their phanta-materials to get them cheaper

steady zephyr
#

If I have a level 60 MSQ do I benefit more from doing it on a level 60 job or a level 70 job, experience-wise?

wintry chasm
#

Either

obsidian wren
#

You get the same amount of experience

wintry chasm
#

But if you do it on the level 70 job you might hit the level cap in the middle of story

#

Which is sad times since you won't get XP then

#

So to make sure you don't do that I'd probably do the 60 job

steady zephyr
#

gotcha, makes sense

#

did u reach the needed collectability? if its to low u cant turn it in

#

No

#

You know how you use touch skills to add quality to an item to make it high quality?

Same thing but with collectability

#

Ahh gotcha

wintry chasm

So you have to hit 90 collectability with touch skills at least

warped nest
#

@glad fog they are pulled from a small set

#

Once you turn in leves for that level range, the game will pull another one from the deck

latent saddle
#

hey :D would you guys recommend to first clear all ARR EX Trials and then move on to HW and SB EX Trials?
level 71 fresh in shadowbringers now

glad fog
#

If there is a leve that I like, but I don't have time to do it (should go to bed lol) should I just take it now?

obsidian patio
#

@latent saddle completely up to you, extreme trials don't unlock anything extra when completed (besides a weekly quest for i90 weapons for Ifrit/Garuda/Titan)

latent saddle
#

don't they drop like rare mounts? was the only thing why i wanted to clear them

obsidian patio
#

yeah they do, I just meant like in terms of completing the quest for them

latent saddle
#

okay :D cool thank you very much (:

analog elk
#

hey so i reached lvl21 and got a quest to enter a dungeon using the Duty finder - i'm almost 8 minutes in que and nothing pops up and i have no other quests in the main story

#

what should i do?

faint flare
#

Go do fates...side quests...maybe go level some crafters or something....just do what you like during que

analog elk
#

also , is it matter if i buy the game now at lvl21 or i should wait to finish the trail and then buy?

faint flare
#

Buying now only really lets you go up to like floor 40 in palace of the deaf

analog elk
#

if i leave the area of the dungeon and go to a another place will i lose the que? or its gonna teleport me to the dungeon

faint flare
#

You'll be teleported

#

Cause everything is instanced

analog elk
#

cool

faint flare
#

And you can swap jobs

analog elk
#

so buying the game b4 the trail ends is pointless for me right?

faint flare
#

Kinda...doesn't really do anything immediately until you hit 35...aside from removing the gil cap and chat limitations

#

And hiring retainers i guess

leaden ginkgo
#

So in late night wonder

analog elk
#

alright thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

how much XP does HoH give?

latent saddle
#

should i use the duty finder or the (dont know whats it called exactly) group finder for extreme trials?

faint flare
#

Not really

#

Only JP uses duty finder for extreme

#

Na and EU highly prefer party finder for extreme and up content

latent saddle
#

okay, thank you so much

faint flare
#

Chances of clearing extreme and up content in DF is...not the best

latent saddle
#

okay hahaha i thought so

#

sorry for another question, but to my information heavensward mounts (the birds) there are 7 for me to collect in order to acquire the phoenix right?

faint flare
#

Yes, just like for the kirin

#

Ravana, bismark, thordan, niddy, and the 3 warring triad

latent saddle
#

okay nice 😄 thanks, going to unlock all the quests right now 😄

#

3 warring triad?

faint flare
#

Yeah, sephirot, sophia and zurvan

#

The warring triad

wintry chasm
#

The optional trial questline

latent saddle
#

ohh okay

faint flare
#

From the same guy who gives you the extremes for Bismark

#

And ravana

#

Iirc its called Gods of Eld

latent saddle
#

okay, going to mor Dhona right now, think it was there 😄

#

thanks

faint flare
#

Yeah, inside the rising stones

latent saddle
#

în my story line alphinaud is "missing" in shadowbringers, can i still find him anywhere to unlock his hw ex trial quest?

faint flare
#

Yeah, cause every quest in each expansion take place in its own bubble

#

He'll be in the place he is required to be

latent saddle
#

okay so he is chilling in either waking sands or rising stones with the rest of the gang

#

okay thank you so much

#

sorry for all the questions, just got back into FFXIV and a lot to remember

wintry chasm
#

Alphinaud doesn't unlock any EX trials though IIRC 🤔

rare sable
#

stupid question, e5s does the tetther add do anything to you if you hit him (but ur not the one tetthered)

faint flare
#

Yes

#

It kills you

#

Immediately

rare sable
#

oof

faint flare
#

Then tethers to someone else

latent saddle
#

@wintry chasm maybe i got something mixed up, but that relieves me even more

rare sable
#

more dodge work then, thanks

faint flare
#

And it speed increases

#

So it runs around killing everyone

rare sable
#

no I mean, if I'm not the one tetthered

faint flare
#

Oh if you're not tethered

#

Then no

#

It only interacts with the tether person

rare sable
#

cause OT runs everywhere with it and I was like "uh... is it ok to be on OT's path or should I do some dodgework"

#

thank you :3

faint flare
#

Provided you dont have equal or more stacks then the OT, you can touch it

rare sable

leaden ginkgo
#

Say, how long is the Post Stormblood content

wintry chasm
#

IIRC 42 quests

leaden ginkgo
#

but is that like...

#

3 hours?
6 hours? :,D

latent saddle
#

not as long as post ARR hahahha

wintry chasm
#

That's like HW

faint flare
#

Its not that long

leaden ginkgo
#

i dun even remember how long i spent in post HW

wintry chasm
#

How quick can you read @leaden ginkgo?

#

How fast are queues

#

Etc etc, I can't answer that

leaden ginkgo
#

i just wonder if i could knock it all out in one night, 9 hours

faint flare
#

You probably could

#

Especially if you skip cutscenes

leaden ginkgo
#

Then i guess i won't

#

Being a night shifter, and staying up at night, makes me at times realize that figuring out what content to do is hard :,D

#

When you got from 9 PM to 9 AM of free time, you really gotta think

wicked edge
#

Should I use silver Chocobo feathers on Ironworks weapons for the two classes I main? I have 10, and they’re 5 each

analog elk
#

So i just finished the first dungeon and it was a blast!

#

so impressed with this game 😮

dawn mountain
#

is there any way to get a damage meter or something? since im playing a tank I think it would be interesting to see how relevant my damage is

hybrid hamlet
#

You can by using a third party app

faint flare
#

There'sno official dps meter, only the third party one called ACT

#

As long as you don't speak about it in game, you'll be fine

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok, you dont have to judge me, but i bought this boost to lvl 70 Dragoon. Every Job-Quest is finished, but i got no Drachen-Armor. How can i get this now?

obsidian patio
#

From the calamity salvager in the main city-states

faint flare
#

Calamity salvager for lv50 job gear

leaden ginkgo
#

thanks a lot

dawn mountain
#

namazuconcern I mean if it isnt officially supported i will probably pass. btw, is 100% bonus xp the cap? when I switch to a job lower than my highest job I still only get 100% bonus xp from the road to 70 bonus

obsidian patio
#

No it’s not the max

#

I think you can stack up to like 400% with all the exp items and bonuses?

#

Also Armoury bonus only works on killing monsters for the most part

#

While Road to 70 works on virtually all sources of experience.

dawn mountain
#

ohh, i see, so leveling in instances is good for secondary jobs?

obsidian patio
#

Yeah, spamming dungeons after doing your daily roulettes is generally the best form of experience after the story

dawn mountain
#

btw are tomestones of poetics usefull for anything at max level? currently kinda stuck with 2000/2000 with nothing to spend them on

obsidian patio
#

They’re for the previous level caps.

#

!faq poetics

zinc orbitBOT
obsidian patio
#

There’s a few options if you want Gil

analog elk
#

how can i become a crafter?
im waiting in a que for a while and dont have new quests im lvl24

#

might do some crafts while im waiting to do the main s tory quests

faint flare
#

Go to a crafter guild and take the blue quest there

analog elk
#

yeah but which one? like the leatherworking ?

faint flare
#

Then eqip the tool they give

#

Any

hybrid hamlet
#

Leatherwork is in gridania

faint flare
#

You'll want all of them eventually

hybrid hamlet
#

armsmith and blacksmith are from limsa

analog elk
#

ok cool

#

ok thanks

hot eagle
#

would probably better to start with miner or botanist if u want to lvl your crafter and dont want to spend gil for it

gritty oracle
#

And get at least one retainer on gathering too, esp crystals

#

Also if you just want to dabble in crafting, I recommend CUL. It only needs botanist for the majority of recipes and it's useful for leveling.

wintry chasm
#

@obsidian patio depending on what you got you can go higher. I think I got to +5XX% xp

But whew. Quite a slog

im from sa

#

what is the time right now in na?

so i can measure the best timings to play

obsidian patio
#

Depends on exact time zone but 4:30 to 7:30 for most of NA

odd bobcat
#

9:30 righ now

#

so 2hours deficit

#

does most of the comunity is from 4:30 or 7:30 zone?

obsidian patio
#

I’d say split between them for the most part

#

Since both coasts of the US are pretty populated

odd bobcat

are you from na?:

where can i see all the chat comands?

hey i wonder do i get a fantasia potion free ingame?

open coral

Yes. When you complete the ARR MSQ you'll receive a fantasia potion as a quest reward.

analog elk
#

sweet im getting to close to lvl 30 🙂

#

trail us up until 35?

#

is*

open coral
#

It should be, yes.

analog elk
#

ok what about getting a mount? when its possible?

outer plank
#

you should of gotten one by lv 20

#

you get a free chocobo if you buy the permit with the seals you gotten for joining a grand company

#

@analog elk

analog elk
#

wooot

#

what how who ?

#

i followed the main story and job quests only.

green grail
#

!faq mounts

zinc orbitBOT
#
Mounts FAQ
Info

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

analog elk
#

alright thanks i will look for that quests

outer plank
#

@analog elk what server are you on?

analog elk
#

quest

#

Light-Zodiark

outer plank
#

ah

steady zephyr
#

Is there any reason why I would want to take CNJ past 30? Or should I just switch to WHM at 30 and continue with that to 80?

hybrid hamlet
#

ou should switch

vernal urchin
#

All classes are pretty much replaced by the job later

analog elk
#

the grand company base you chose - no idea which base 😮

hybrid hamlet
#

they only provide cosmetic itens in the end

#

and you can change freely later

analog elk
#

i remember seeing that quest name for the mount but im not sure where it was

outer plank
#

@steady zephyr pretty much once you get your job stone, theres no reason not to wear it

analog elk
#

hmm maybe i got it wrong and my main story quest is only lvl 17 so far

outer plank
#

you lose access to like 70% of your skills if you just reamain a conj

#

@analog elk yeah, you're not there

steady zephyr
#

Thanks all

analog elk
#

i was sure i already got there because i am lvl27 but that happened because my server got the "road to 70" buff

outer plank
#

its a way to incentives new/returning/moving players to join the new data center @analog elk

analog elk
#

yeah i will just keep pushing the main quest

outer plank
#

the good news is that you'll never have to worry about being roadblocked by lack of levels

analog elk
#

thats cool 🙂
i love how this game got voice acting and you actually enjoy doing quests compared to a game like WoW

outer plank
#

we'll see how you feel about that soon enough yoshisrsly

#

cause you got about 400 quests before you're all caught up.

analog elk
#

haha i imagine.. but i take it slowly and enjoy my time.. i already know i will buy this game. i just cant wait to become a samurai already o.O

latent saddle
#

samurai here, best class ever

outer plank
#

its a very easy class, but very satisfying

latent saddle
#

yes

#

not too much to worry about

#

and feels so good

outer plank
#

im over here stuck between thinking about maining sam and maining monk

hybrid hamlet
#

sam is so cool for having both gap close and disengage

analog elk
#

well i got my self a cool sam weeb nickname

#

i must become one already ! 😄

outer plank
#

monk is the "GOTTA GO FAST" class, its hectic as fuck, has alot of ogcds and the gl4 gcd reduction makes it really manic

#

atleast with sam i can just turn off my brain a little and go 1-2-3

hybrid hamlet
#

monk is really stressing

steady zephyr
#

are there servers where they "road to" buff still applies?

#

or is it any character on any new server?

hybrid hamlet
#

yes

#

whenever you create a character

steady zephyr
#

or a specific data center?

hybrid hamlet
#

you must look for the server that has a star on the side of it's name

steady zephyr
#

does it apply for transfers as well? or only new character creation?

analog elk
#

i am on EU Light-Zodiark and i got the road to 70 buff

outer plank
#

it would be easier if monk didnt have so many god damn ogcd and useless ass skills. like wtf is even the purpose of six sidded stars and tornado kick

analog elk
#

monk never was my thing... i was to wield a katana

hybrid hamlet
#

i'm not sure if it applies for server transference

whole wasp
#

no, transfering to a new server does not give you the buff

outer plank
whole wasp
#

you can see which servers are preferred here

steady zephyr
#

thanks all

analog elk
#

yes i do 😄

#

still cant decide on a race that i will play.. might be Au Ra/Miqote/Human 😮

steady zephyr
#

I always pick the falafels

outer plank
#

don't pick lalafells

#

they are at the bottom of the food chain

#

literally

#

their are so many fates that imply the monsters eat lalafells

analog elk
#

i wont.. i named myself Shinobu Kocho

#

it must be a sexy demon slayer with katana..

steady zephyr
#

Are FCs realm specific or can you have characters from different realms in the same data center?

outer plank
#

fc's? free companies?

steady zephyr
#

The guilds

outer plank
#

free companies then no, they all have to be in the same world

#

you can have people in a linkshell be crossworld i believe

#

but the guilds aka free companies, no.

#

linkshells are pretty much like private group chats @steady zephyr

steady zephyr
#

ok, thanks!

#

what the % for that "road to" buff? I'm not seeing it on the wiki or anywhere

rich bay
#

@steady zephyr

The Road to x0 buff is a buff that doubles all experience earned.

It lasts for 45 90 days or when the server is no longer preferred/new, what comes last of the two.

twilit arch
#

90 days

steady zephyr
#

appreciate it

frail rivet
#

What are fflogs?

oak ice
#

A website that you can upload logs from ACT to, and it shows people's DPS on endgame bosses

#

Also some other nifty stats, like popularity among the different jobs

Am i more than halfway through stormblood if I did the Doma castle instance?

thats the lv 67 dungeon right?

dusty jungle
#

Yes

twilit arch
#

a bit more than half way, yeah

silent harbor
#

Then yes

outer plank
#

you're quite off, like heavensward and arr. you still got patches 4.1-4.5

#

so your almost done with patch 4.0

analog elk
#

Should i do daily roulette while questing?

warped nest
#

Up to you

outer plank
#

leveling roulette offers really good exp, do it on another class your not going through the msq with

analog elk
#

ok

twilit arch
#

unless you're severely over leveled, yeah

outer plank
#

he is

silent harbor
#

The main story quest for 4.1-4.5 is negligible

outer plank
#

hes on one of those preferred servers so hes getting alot of exp from the msq @twilit arch

#

@silent harbor yeah but its still like 7-10 msq quests per patch right?

#

and a dungeon

warped nest
#

Give or take yeah

silent harbor
#

Compared to the rest of the expansion he’s more than half way done

twilit arch
#

mhm, post patches for the expacs go by fairly quickly

silent harbor
#

Yeah

warped nest
#

Especially when you skip dialog

#

Which we don't recommend

silent harbor
#

I say that because I have 12 alts and I’ve done the story on all of them

warped nest
#

But you do you, I suppose

silent harbor
#

Have two other characters that I skipped to stormblood

#

why would you have 12 alts ?

Sorry missed the message while I was getting into work. I have 12 alts from before cross world party finder was a thing.

#

So I have characters to play with all of my friends who were on different worlds

#

As a streamer I try to have an 80 on every single EU and NA data center so I can help people with content mostly now a days

#

Right now the only worlds that I still need to level up are Light and Primal. Those are both at 70

rare sable
#

How should e7(normal) idolatry(s) be killed? Each pub party I got into have their own idea (split/stack ; burst 1 first/both same time) and whats the trigger for it casting aoe wipe?

raw solstice
#

they're purely timer-based for enrage

#

you will want to stack them

#

it makes it much easier to do the mechanics if you do, and lets people use cleave to kill them faster

#

similarly, it's more efficient to kill them a bit more evenly to better take advantage of cleave

whole wasp
#

stacking them also makes it easier to avoid the AoE

raw solstice
#

yeah that's what I meant by mechanics haha

Thank you!

#

when do I get the quest to unlock Sephirot?

rare sable
#

The warring triad questline?

forest laurel
#

oh it's a questline of its own?

rare sable
#

Its a series of side quests yes

forest laurel
#

oh I thought to look in the Rising Stones first for some reason

strange coral
#

Rising Stones is correct

wintry chasm
#

Not entirely

strange coral
#

You might need Gold of Eld from the pillars first though. I think the guy is next to Fortemps Manor

wintry chasm
#

To start the questline you have to accept Gods of Eld from The Pillars

#

THEN the rest is in Rising Stones

anyone has e6s macro can pm me ?

said it was for the 9th i thought

Oop you are right.

#

My guess it might just be having technical difficulties.

#

Or did you by chance misplace your password?

shrewd light
#

naw, i can login fine ingame and on the site, i get to the OTP part and put it in, then it puts me on a page saying a technial error has occouried, and thats it no other codes or such.

can anyone tell me what these "penalty-points" are?

in what context @dark grove

uh

shrewd light

pretty much every time ive tried it

Where are you getting them?

is there any site for that? cause google doesnt help weirdly

I have no clue what you're referring to so I'm asking lol

oh

#

when u que for a dung and dont press anything when the window pops up for example

#

Deny 3 times and you can't queue for 30 minutes

it's just a 30 minute duty finder lockout after leaving a dungeon or not accepting the queue yeah

#

they don't accumulate in any way

#

just 30 minute lockout from queues

frosty badger
#

so uhm all eden verse are the same difficulty? they all require same ilv so i was wondering

strong citrus
#

No they are different

#

Every fight has different mechanics.

#

Shiva is more difficult then Ramuh, and more people have a hard time with Iconoclasm then most.

faint flare
#

only cause they're small iq on the easiest fight

frosty badger
#

hmm

#

then why same ilv?

faint flare
#

Same raid tier

strong citrus
#

It's always been that way.

leaden ginkgo
#

The iLvl req is literally just a gate so you don't get low gear noobies trying to do harder fights

#

since I know e7n has something of a dps check

faint flare
#

They're all equal ish difficulty but their various mechanics make some fights harder for others and easier for some people

rare sable
#

I cant wrap my head around b/w + portal (oof)

strong citrus
#

For normal just watch which portal the bird spinny orbs go into first.

dim wraith
#

hey all has anyone had the "an unexpected error has occurred. exiting FINAL FANTASY XIV. (6d)" error before? asking for a friend if anyone knows a fix would be nice to know cheers

strong citrus
#

They will either go into Red or Blue first.

rare sable
#

Normal portal is fine

#

But when combined with b/w birds

#

And your b/w debuff

faint flare
#

Thats easy

rare sable
#

I go "????"

faint flare
#

Check what light goes into it

strong citrus
#

Just be in the opposite line.

rare sable
frosty badger
#

so fulmination is the easiest?

strong citrus
#

There isn't really an easiest.

#

They all are vastly different mechanics

#

So easy will be subjective for some people

#

So if you are purple you'll stand in the white line if your white you'll stand in the purple line and the portals will be just the same as the first set.

faint flare
#

@rare sable check what portal light goes into. If you know light is red and you're black, you go to red portal...if you know light is red and you're white, you go to blue

#

Very simple

#

The portals at the back always spawn in the same arrangement, red on left, blue on right

rare sable
#

squints
loading....
If;

  1. w debuff - stand on black path (take note of portal color)
  2. debuff becomes b - stand on opposite up portal color (cause its going to spat w stream)
    ?__?
raw solstice
#

basically. For normal I just kind of think of it like:

  1. I'm starting with white, let me get hit with black
  2. I'll need white after, which portal is white going into?
rare sable

Hey so I am playing AST and I'm noticing that the cards are slightly different than they use to be from when I played AST? Now they don't seem to give atkspd or inc dmg or dmg reduction they all just give more damage. Is that right or am I like stuck in some old version of AST somehow?

strong citrus
#

Yes that is correct

#

they changed how AST works in ShB timeline.

#

They all are now range or melee cards.

#

Balance, Spear, and Arrow are melee cards, and Bole, Spire, and I can't think of the last one are ranged cards

tawny bolt
#

Is there some FFLogs expert that can help me?

strong citrus
#

You can give cards to anyone, but if you give a ranged card to a melee the increase is just less.

#

So it is ideal to give them their cards based on their role.

opal lichen
#

Ahh ok I understand now. So no more raid wide dmg buffs everyeon

strong citrus
#

Correct

#

I'm dissapointed in the change personally. I switched to WHM because of it.

faint flare
#

Only raid wide damage buff astro has is divination

strong citrus
#

Yeah

#

But the amount is based on the seals, so you'd need a lunar, solar, and celestial seal to get the max damange increase for Divination

faint flare
#

Which you'll very easily get by the time it's up again...unless rng extremely hates you or you accidentally over ride seals

#

Only the divination where the.fight start might have less than ideal seals

I just hit level 35 as Marauder and the game is telling me that I can take the next class quest. But it's not at the Marauder's guild. Where is it?

Costa del sol

leaden ginkgo

Probably with curious George in hidden falls

faint flare
#

Your scenario tracker should also be displaying your job quest

glad fog
#

I don't see the quest on my scenario tracker (only the next main story quest) and there aren't any quests in costa del sol 😦

faint flare
#

Have you equipped your soul crystal

#

The thing your lv30 quest gave you

#

Cause yoy aint a marauder anymore after 30

glad fog
#

I didn't get a soul crystal

faint flare
#

Did you even do your lv30 job quest

glad fog
#

Yes. I beat the mountain or whatever

faint flare
#

Then you have it

glad fog
#

And the marauder guy said he had nothing more to teach me

#

Where do I see it?

faint flare
#

Check your soul crystal tab in the armoury chest

glad fog

It's empty

#

Are Factory Coin an automatic drop for everyone after doing the Factory raid or is it something u need to roll for??

glad fog
#

I haven't done much of the main story if that's a factor in this

faint flare
#

Automatic

#

If you completed the slyph management main story, which is lv25 ish then you should have a quest somewhere

leaden ginkgo
#

@faint flare i cant seem to find it in my inventory, weird

glad fog
#

Oh, okay. Haven't done that then

faint flare
#

If you dont have a slot open in your inventory you'll lose the coin

glad fog
#

Thanks 🙂

latent saddle
#

yeah you also need msq level 25

faint flare
#

Once you've done slyph management job quests open up

#

And you can get your warrior kit

is there a channel on this discord where i can look for a group for some EX trials?

you need to have a crafter leveled but you don't need to be on the crafting job to overmeld

faint flare

If you dont level crafters, you need to ask someone who has to overmeld for you via request meld

How do you go into picture mode

There is a way

But these idiots in-game are saying just use screenshot

When there is a picture mode

it’s driving me insane

Hey so how do I unlick those big 30v30v30 PvP modes?

#

Unlock

leaden ginkgo
#

@forest laurel Thank you, and different poses?

forest laurel
#

./cpose

#

changes your pose when idle and when sitting (on chairs and on ground)

#

and don't forget, /gpose uses the last action you did. i.e. if you're a WHM and you cast Cure before g-posing, then the repeated animation will be Cure's.
if you wanna reset it to the idle one, make sure you sit before you gpose

#

who is this Jade Corele person lol

#

shes always in limsa lominsa

#

in the same spot

#

is this an NPC?

forest laurel
#

Thonk not sure who you're talking about, but I assume it's just a player

faint flare
#

If their name is green then they're are

#

Some people just have particular spots like afkibg

leaden ginkgo
forest laurel
#

lmao is it just a bunch of alts

#

that's an actual player then

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah

#

like this is a multiboxer i figured but shes ALWAYS here. i play a lot and dungeon grind alt jobs and shes here all day

#

never moving

forest laurel
#

like vinyl said, if it's green, it's NPC
if it's blue, it's a player

faint flare
#

Some people have weird afk habits

#

There's some servers that have a guy in ridiculous glamour dancing 24/7 everyday without fail

#

And other silly dumb studd

#

Just limsa being limsa

glad fog
#

If you change your FC's GC allegiance, does the npc you talk to to manage it change places, too?

Do plots/houses that are scheduled to be demolished get demolished at daily reset, or at any point during the day? Trying to gauge the usefulness of checking for empty plots several times a day vs. one time a day.

gilded pagoda
#

id say thats a moot point when you consider the cooldown timer

junior yacht
#

yeah

#

the time a plot becomes available is delayed by a randomized timer

#

in theory plots that have been empty longer are more likely to become available soon

#

but there's no good way to track that

gilded pagoda
#

once a day is probably fine if you want to keep tabs on open plots. theres either a mega low chance or none at all that it'll be gone within like a day

#

best way to track is probably to check the timer on the placard

#

and also consider the price

narrow parcel
#

If you already have a house and are looking to upgrade or move though you can relocate and skip the timer

gilded pagoda
#

and... the rank of the price... or whatever

narrow parcel
#

But yeah if you don't already have a house you're fine just checking once a day at any time because of the timers

gilded pagoda
#

housing market needs reform!

#

i dont know what, but theres gotta be a better way

ancient smelt
#

someone know the name of the sets of shiva glamour in e8?

spice vapor
#

can i materia meld hp onto armor as white mage? i rmemeber i did it back with titan as i was dyeing ofte but now i can pnly put piety?

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Cant meld main stat like vit anymote

junior yacht
#

HP comes from Vitality, which is a Main Stat

#

Main Stat materia is dead

spice vapor
#

everything that gets to 10% others one shot me in trials and raid is unfair

gilded pagoda
#

is there a trade-in NPC for the mainstat materia?

faint flare
#

Cause you're meant to be using raid mitigation

junior yacht
#

to my knowledge the only way to get rid of it is by selling it or using it in fusion

faint flare
#

Like shields

#

Abd reprisal

spice vapor
#

so i dhield only myself?

faint flare
#

And addles

#

And stuff like sacred soil

gilded pagoda
#

@junior yacht im sorry, fusion?

junior yacht
#

uh

faint flare
#

Transmation

junior yacht
#

yeah that

faint flare
#

Transmutation

junior yacht
#

transmutation

#

combine materia -> get a new random one

faint flare
#

At black brush station, north where the camp is

#

See mutamix

junior yacht
#

keep in mind there will never be any new main stat materia

faint flare
#

You can combine 5 materia into a new one and sometimes get a higher grade materia

junior yacht
#

some people might pay a large amount of gil just for the novelty of it

gilded pagoda
#

meh

junior yacht
#

they're collector's items now :V

gilded pagoda
#

yeah, i might just hang on to them...

fresh lodge
#

Just sell them

gilded pagoda
#

why the hell not. just like those totems from 1.0 so you could fight primals

fresh lodge
#

They're literally useless

junior yacht
#

no u paissasquint

gilded pagoda
#

i like JET's far more impractical notion of value

junior yacht
#

everything is worth exactly what people are willing to pay for it paissasquint

spice vapor
#

@faint flare ok so to increas emy hp i either keep upgraidng gear or shield myself suck it up

#

cause often when im jsut at minium ilevel for a new encounter everythign is one shot mechanic almost

#

espectially after i die once with debuff

faint flare
#

In raids everyone should be using raid mitigation to reduce aoe damage

#

Nothing should one shot you

#

Unless you fail a mechanic

#

Then thats on you

#

Using food gives you abit of extra hp

spice vapor
#

oh that might help some

faint flare
#

Might give you a few thousand more hp

spice vapor
#

which one? is there any inexpensive or vendor one

faint flare
#

Highest food you can get

#

Vendor food is pretty much since its normal quality and kinda low food

spice vapor
#

i jsut feel abit bad i died 11 times on ruby weapon still we made it

#

i am just ilevel 455

faint flare
#

When you learn the mechanics and dont get vulns you wont die

#

Normal modes dont really do any threatening damage

#

Unless you fail mechanics and get vulns

spice vapor
#

i first died on that stand-in the sand thign i almost made it and thne i had debuff and later most those aoe hit me for alot

obsidian patio
#

Weakness/Near Death only reduce the damage/healing you do, it doesn’t make you take more damage

faint flare
#

^

#

Thank god it doesn't anymore

#

Hated old weakness

#

(it gave you less hp but basically somewhat similar)

hybrid hamlet
#

How do i get totems for hw's primal gear?

fresh lodge
#

By beating the extreme version of the fight

hybrid hamlet
#

Guaranteed drop?

random warren
#

totems are yes

#

itll also drop a weapon so you might get the weapon within 10 runs

twilit arch
#

yes you always receive a totem when you kill

hybrid hamlet
#

oh nice

#

thank you

The Qitari beast tribe (also in ShB) have the ronkawobble mount, I think.

twilit arch

which is gathering

#

and they said they don't have it leveled (as i assume they meant land since they say no crafting either)

Oh, I missed that part.

#

Hello friends, I need help. First time playing FFxiv, when I play a mmo the first time I go thro everything. Anyway everything I looked up stated I could get a mount at lvl 20, (btw lvl 22 Ul dah), cant get the quest for the whistle. Do i need to join a guild or w/e its called in ff, I cant get the quest from Swift?! Need help thanks!!

twilit arch
#

You need to do the lvl 20 main scenario quest that has you join a grand company

open coral
#

You need to do the MSQ msq through the point where you select a Grand Company to join, then complete the bluequest My Little Chocobo

twilit arch
#

so while your level may be 20, if you're not far enough along in the msq then you'll just have to continue with that

wet nova
#

gotcha gotcha thanks all!!!

So Glamour plates, they seem to be resetting. I click on [Glamour plate1] Then I apply and update on the job/class I want to save my glamour to!

But then I go to do the same thing on another job/class for [Glamour plate 2] and apply and update it does keep the glamour however it won't once I've swapped back to the other job/class I've got [Glamour plate 1] on.

And no, before you say "can you even use this glamour or is it the right level etc" Yes I have checked. Because all the glamours work for all job/classes they just don't save

wet nova
#

I will go back and check it out, I know where it might be.

open coral
#

If the jobs are in the same gear category (e.g. Scholar and White Mage), and you have the same equipped gear saved to both sets, you're overwriting the glamours by doing that.

#

To be sure, can you explain a little better what your problem is though? Are the glamour plate sets not saving or are you not seeing the plates applied correctly?

opal lichen
#

We figured out! You can do it by overriding it's called "Linking glamour plates to classes" button.

#

Ty though

Hey everyone, I created a new char on a new server so I bought the ARR story skip to not redo it, i'm leveling my char and am currently level 44 but I have terrible gear

#

Is there a place where I can buy some cheap ?

#

cause I've got like level 15 gear, level 1 rings etc

obsidian patio
#

Main-city marketplaces have level 1-49 gear

#

You can try taking a look on the marketboard and see if there’s any generous listings of equipment there

rich flume
#

alright, thanks !

lost sinew
#

following back up on the question i asked a while ago: i do have a house, and i am relocating, and that totally explains why i haven't seen a hidden timer on any of the houses even though i've seen people standing there 😛

#

so it might actually make sense for me to check more often than one day

obsidian patio
#

Autodemolish is its own timer AFAIK

lost sinew
#

meaning it could happen at any point?

obsidian patio
#

Yep

lost sinew
#

not an important question... but just curious... why are some names red and some names green in the residential listings?

That shows which house is open to visitors or not iirc

To get thw quest

You need to have started the heavensward story to unlock the level 50-60 job quests

Then you got a looooooong way to go
