How do u deal with wanderers palace hard final boss o.o

#

We keep wiping lol

obsidian patio
#

Pull him to the edge of the arena, stay close to him, heal people with doom to full HP, drag him out of the glowy stuff except the ones that tether to him, kill adds.

winter hill
#

Sorry for nub question

hot crane
#

hello, I heard dragoon is easy. I was thinking play monk, yet wonder if it would be much harder.

rare sable
#

By doing mech :)
Look away when he cast soul douse (else need full heal)
Drag boss out of non tetthered totem
Destroy tetthered totem an adds

obsidian patio
#

and slowly circle him around the area when needed to avoid totems

winter hill
#

The totems are soo tanky o.o

obsidian patio
#

you only kill the ones that tether to the boss

rare sable
#

Only the tetthered

obsidian patio
#

ignore the ones that don't

#

Monk is a lot more intensive on both positionals and GCD speed compared to dragoon

winter hill
#

Ty!

hot crane
#

okie

obsidian patio
#

I think with 4 stacks of Greased Lightning they sit around a 1.9 second GCD

#

and all of their single-target GCD moves have a positional, making it 6 total

#

thta isn't too bad

You cannot pick dye regions.

obsidian patio

You can get normal cordials with Grand company seals

slate arrow
#

can't help ya sadly but just remember to tick all languages on if you're in a non-na server for maximum matchmaking range

heady plank
#

thanks anyways but what you said, how do i turn on all languages i am new so i dont know that much yet

twilit arch
#

in the duty finder window, there's a cogwheel at the top of the window. Click on that and then at the bottom of that window there's language settings. click on the letter to enable/disable them

heady plank
#

oh okay thank, when i get back on the game i will do that, hope i can progress more

#

i plan buying completed edition in a few weeks but waiting for ff7 remake. And a mate is also buying the game

dusk zenith
#

how do you get the tamamo headband?

obsidian patio
#

From tokens obtained from the fate Outfoxed and Foxy Lady in Yanxia

dusk zenith
#

ohhh

#

is it difficult to get?

obsidian patio
#

more tedious than anything

dusk zenith
#

ohh yeah this looks too annoying to do

forest laurel
#

do I have to level up my retainer before he can use my old level 70 gear Thonk

#

because I thought he could just use it right off the bat

obsidian patio
#

yes they need to be the level needed to wear the equipment

forest laurel
proven cliff
#

I heard that if i buy shadowbringers i'll get all the other expansions, so if i buy shadowbringers from g2a, do i still get all the older expansions?

forest laurel
#

why would you buy anything from g2a

#

just buy it from the square enix store

#

and yes you do get all the other expansions

twilit arch
#

yes, shadowbringers comes with the previous expansions regardless of where you buy it. That said though g2a afaik isn't an authorized third party seller, so you might want to be careful buying from them

proven cliff
#

I play on steam, so it redirects me to steam where it's 35 eur

obsidian patio
#

If you play on steam then you can only buy the expansion from steam

#

codes from other sites will not work

proven cliff
#

fak

#

thx

twilit arch
#

well, that's not entirely true

#

if its a steam code, then yes it will work but generally its not safe buying from secondary sites like that

proven cliff
#

i've bought from there a lot doe

twilit arch
#

you're still taking a risk buying from a site like g2a

fresh lodge
#

SE has gone on record saying they'll ban anyone buying a steam key from anywhere that isn't Steam

#

Its not worth the risk, just get it through Steam

proven cliff
#

ok

#

Don't wanna get bend, i'll get it on steam, thx

#

Before i buy it i wanna ask what endgame is like in this game?, people who make yt vids about it usually makes the vids because they like it

#

but what is it really like?, pvp pve etc

heady plank
#

@twilit arch @slate arrow Thanks for the help i managed to complete it 🙂

dusky nest
#

@proven cliff PVP doesnt have many players and its not an endgame activity. the majority of players either collects glamour items to make pics for their characters instagram account or goes raiding. there are also some that focus on crafting/gathering (moneymaking) or social stuff etc

#

be aware that it is a game with a big focus on story, so it will take quite some time before you reach the endgame

#

and everything is locked behind story

proven cliff
#

;_;

#

Been playing bdo for some years now, im used to getting in and just kinda grinding for hours on end in the same mob rotation to get to endgame

dusky nest
#

ah well both games are very different from each other

#

big advantage in ffxiv is just that you can do and learn everything on a single character, so you only have to do stuff once

proven cliff
#

that's nice yeah

#

what's raiding and all of that like?

dusky nest
#

there is casual raiding for the story and then there is savage raiding for the challenge. in general the raids are often praised because they can be real fun if you have a decent group

#

the "hard" raids are usually 8 players. there are also 24man raids, but they are also rather casual

proven cliff
#

how do they compare to mythic raids in wow?, (current tier)

#

Is it equally hard, or easier?

obsidian patio
#

Savage raids are around heroic or early mythic bosses

#

Ultimate raids are usually around end of mythic difficulty

proven cliff
#

ahh ok

#

sorry for the stupid questions, just wanna make sure i spend my money right:P

dusky nest
#

definitely check out the trial if you havent done that already

#

because the combat system and early story is what makes most people quit, although it really does get better the further you progress

proven cliff
#

i bought the starter pack thing yersteday

#

got to lvl 12 before swapping job or whatever it's called, and got to 20 with that

#

played for about 13 hours straight, so it's ok fun so far, just the amount of run and talk quests

#

is a bit much

dusky nest
#

you arent doing every sidequest you see, are you?

proven cliff
#

no..

dusky nest
#

but in regards to mainstory quest: after 50 it drastically changes for the better

proven cliff
#

only main quests

dusky nest
#

ah ok good

#

just make sure to also pick up bluequest because they usually unlock something

proven cliff
#

i do:P

spice shell
#

love the fact you can do everyone on one character in this game. i dont have much more in me than one character to create/maintain lol

dusky nest
#

yeah thats useful. you dont even need to create a new character if you want to experience the story again, due to the newgame+ feature now

spice shell
#

though ive been slowly nursing the main story and it drags hard through ARR

#

heard good things about the expansions though, really good things

dusky nest
#

especially between 50 and 51 yes. but it really gets a lot better

proven cliff
#

i've never really cared about storys tbh, doesn't really interest me, but is the game as much running from a to b as it is now?

dusky nest
#

nah

obsidian patio
#

the story starts to pick up in terms of a general storyline past 20 or so

dusky nest
#

i mean, of course you will still have such quests from time to time, but they kinda created ARR within a year and didnt really have the time to work on better quests, so they did as good as they could.
heavensward, the first expansion, had way more development time and it really shows

proven cliff
#

i skip all the cutscenes and dialogs:P

dusky nest
#

you should at least watch the voiced ones later on

proven cliff
#

if it isn't absolutely necessary im not really gonna get into it, story doesn't really interest me

spice shell
#

there's a lot of story in this one

#

i tend to skim through the little quest dialog but sit back and enjoy the cutscenes

proven cliff
#

I just don't really enjoy storys:P

spice shell
#

i guess you're enjoying the gameplay then?

proven cliff
#

So far yeah:P

#

Love how cool the animations are XD

spice shell
#

probably one of the best MMO's ive played in regards to combat, just one casuals opinion. the focus on positioning and AoE dodging, and the ability to lock the camera on to enemies, is understated

#

played WoW for a few weeks and it felt very messy in comparison

proven cliff
#

bdo has amazing combat imo, you have to actually learn the combos, not just press a hotbar button, since they abbilities are smth like Shift+right click, and S+Right click, etc

spice shell
#

i played bdo for like a day since its on xbox game pass, i liked the concept but i dunno if it was lag or the animations but it wasnt a very smooth experience

proven cliff
#

It really depends tho

#

On pc if you have a good pc, it feels quite smooth

#

Learning the abbilities is more important than people realize

spice shell
#

my xbox one probably doesnt line up to a good pc 😄 it was a nice looking game but something was off about the combat. disjointed

proven cliff
#

most people get to 56 and think the class isn't "smooth enough", but you need to get to about lvl 60 in order to get all of the skills and flows, makes it smoother to play:P

#

but yeah, pc is a musthave because of the Iframes etc in bdo

#

It's a bit stupid ngl

obsidian patio
#

depends on the exact class in terms of feeling "complete"

spice shell
#

yeah, i dunno. i dont mean smooth as far as abilities or anything, i mean on a technical level

proven cliff
#

Ninja and sorc needs 60 to really feel smooth and good imo

#

Ahh ok

#

yeh that's cuz of xbox

spice shell
#

hard to explain, i dont mean framerate either. like that rubberbanding feeling old games used to get from lag

obsidian patio
#

Personally Ninja feels their first form of "complete" once you get Armor Crush because you no longer need to use Huton outside the first time.

#

which makes mudras a lot easier to think about

twilit arch
proven cliff
#

true

#

Sorry kael

#

Now the question comes down to, what class am i gonna play, i'll boost a char to 70, my friend did and gotta play with him instead of playing alone;)

forest laurel
#

pretty much every class is viable so it doesn't really matter, they all can do MSQ just fine

obsidian patio
#

Any specific class archetype you like?

forest laurel
#

there are some expansion-only jobs that can be unlocked

rare sable
#

!faq meta

zinc orbitBOT
#
Meta Jobs FAQ
Info

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

rare sable
#

^ Usually surprise newcomer

proven cliff
#

I enjoy a speedy playstyle, I played a ton of ninja and sorc in bdo, so anything like that?:P

rare sable
#

Ninja here is speedy too xD

obsidian patio
#

The Melee DPS besides Lancer/Dragoon have a decently fast GCD

#

In terms of speed it's Monk > Ninja > Samurai IIRC

proven cliff
#

Was looking at Red Mage, that bard thing, or sam/ninja

obsidian patio
#

Bard does a good amount of button mashing with their procs

rare sable
#

Um, rdm is simple class (which is fine if you like it) and not busy

#

Sam rotation is nice and flowy

spice shell
#

seems like dragoon doesnt have many AOE abilities/combos til later on. what DPS classes are more focused on AOE?

#

melee DPS in particular

#

if any

rare sable
#

Eh, none?

obsidian patio
#

They all have an AoE rotation, but AoE itself generally isn't a thing people worry about

spice shell
#

really? feels like dancer at least would be a bit more spinny lol

obsidian patio
#

a majority of fights are against one target, two at most rarely.

proven cliff
#

Red mage, bard, or sam, any of them which are bad in pvp/pve, or any of em which are etter than the other

obsidian patio
#

I don't keep up with PVP meta at all. 🤷‍♂️

spice shell
#

most dungeon pulls are 2+ from what ive seen

whole wasp
#

they are all okay but you cant start as red mage or sam

rare sable
#

Rdm and bard are support dpses, while sam is selfish.....

obsidian patio
#

yes, but dungeons are casual content

rare sable
#

Eh, nobody "care" about dungeon

obsidian patio
#

Any combination of classes will melt big pulls in less than a minute usually.

whole wasp
#

yup, dungeons are the lowest "tier" of group content

rare sable
#

Its the people not the class

spice shell
#

alrighty

#

dungeons are pretty fun though

whole wasp
#

yup. pretty relaxed

proven cliff
#

So bard is a support class, but in what sense?, healer or just giving buffs while still dpsing?

whole wasp
#

buffs yup but its still a DPS first

#

it just has more support ablities than ~~most ~~ all of the other DPSes

#

only Healers can truly heal properly

#

ever other class with heals are for emergency or desperation

dusk zenith
#

which class has the most buttons to press?

#

/highest apm

hot gale
#

how should I be getting my gear, dungeons or buying

obsidian patio
#

@dusk zenith not sure about most but Machinist is pretty up there with their Hypercharge windows, you need to use 1.5 second GCD moves while weaving in an oGCD to not overcap on charges

#

for pre-50 I do a mix of vendor and dungeon gear. Past 50 I stick to Tomestone and dungeon stuff unless the HQ crafted gear is super cheap

hot gale
#

what is tomestone?

obsidian patio
#

Types of currency obtained from level 50/60/70/80 content which can be spent on gear.

forest laurel
#

how often do fates reset? trying to get one for a daily allied hunt but it hasn't appeared in like 10-15 mins

hot gale
#

also am I restricted to level 70 if I dont have shadow bringers or can I level to 80 and just cant do the content itself

obsidian patio
#

Do you have stormblood registered?

proven cliff
#

btw how long does it take to level from 1 to 70?

obsidian patio
#

Probably a week or two depending on your queue times, if you started on a preferred world, and if you’re watching cutscenes and reading dialogue.

#

In terms of your first time through the story

hot gale
#

I do have stormblood registered

Then you can only level up to 70

ah

can't figure it out for the life of me

How the fuck do i get around?, i need to get from black shroud to La noscea,

#

No idea how tf i do that

obsidian patio
#

Use the airships that the story showed you.

proven cliff
#

I can't remember where it is

obsidian patio
#

Bottom floor of the adventurers guild for Gridania

proven cliff
#

it's not exactly because this game has a good map XD

red torrent
#

#

is the miniature aetheryte from GC a decoration or will it let me tp to my apartment?

obsidian patio
#

Both

rare sable
#

Apartment nu

obsidian patio
#

But it can only be placed outside

proven cliff
#

THX

#

❤️

obsidian patio
#

You can teleport to your apartment by default

forest laurel
#

Thonk how
other than just going to the city state and using the aetheryte to get to the housing area

obsidian patio
#

Through the teleport menu

forest laurel
#

oh shit

obsidian patio
#

You can teleport directly to your apartment and any housing you’re part of that have that furniture in the yard

rare sable
#

Btw stupid question, for the circle with indicator on how many needed to stand on it like oborne thunder boss and light rampant, what would happen if more people stand on it than necesarry?

proven cliff
#

do people teleport around in this game? or do people go to the airships every time?

forest laurel
#

ppl always teleport around

#

I've never seen ppl actually go for airships unless it's for MSQ

obsidian patio
#

Depends on the exact mechanic

#

For TG Cid nothing happens if more people than needed stack

rare sable
#

Hmmm how bout e8 normal?

obsidian patio
#

Same thing for normal

rare sable
#

Ty wynne

#

obsidian patio

@hot eagle thanks! Is it mostly higher level players?

twilit arch
#

frontlines is equalized

#

so it doesn't matter what level you queue into it, everyone is same stats/lvl

your lvl and gear means nothing in pvp/frontline

It's been a while since I played frontline, but it has a few different objectives, like take over people's bases or kill nodes fastest. As blm keep your distance and look for your healers when you're hurt.

@forest laurel best u can do to make it spawn faster is do other fates since in a region can only be specified numbers of fates active at the same time, so long nobody does them or they timeout no new one spawns

forest laurel
#

gotcha

#

also about how would I rank up beyond second lieutenant? do I need to do the squadron stuff?

wintry chasm
#

Yes

frosty badger
#

Thanks @hot eagle

wintry chasm
#

the flagged missions

jaunty crescent
#

no gunbreaker armor sets? Or how if there is one

open coral
#

What do you mean?

junior yacht
#

you get one unique set of GNB armor when you unlock it

#

and one when you reach 80

broken plaza
#

is it possible to buy standard edition on steam just for the play game time even tho i have an account with shadowbringers already ?

hybrid hamlet
#

Don't know about the game time

#

Because steam sends you a key to activate through mogstation

#

So it probably won't work

broken plaza
#

thing is i got steam wallet money to waste cuz i have no use of it but i cant buy game time with steam wallet because i bought the game somewhere else

proud willow
#

If you currently have it on PC, no. If you currently have it on PS4 or Mac, I think so.

broken plaza
#

yea i have it normally on pc not steam

#

fml idk what to use the steam wallet money on

#

rekt

random warren
#

if you rebuy a mac/ps4 base version for your account

#

youll get 30 days

#

you cant add a steam one though as you already a pc version registered to your account

#

with pc its pick one or the other basically Steam or Non Steam

broken plaza
#

basically i gotta find something esle to spend my steam wallet on lol

cunning palm
#

how do i levelup my alt class? potd?

broken plaza
#

yes potd till 51 i think?

wintry chasm
#

Depends on the role and how efficient you want to be and what level

#

roulettes always to start with

cunning palm
#

what level can i start doing potd?

broken plaza
#

1

wintry chasm
#

tanks and healers just want to spam highest level leveling dungeon after that

broken plaza
#

just gotta unlock it

#

if u wanna be fast just do potd and daily roulette

wintry chasm
#

DPS like Deep Dungeons like Palace of the Dead and Heaven on High since dungeon queues are long. If you can queue with a friend dungeon spamming is better

broken plaza
#

i dont think dungeon spamming is faster than 50-60 spam

#

lol

wintry chasm
#

Also it's PotD to level 60 then the 59 dungeon to 61 then Heaven on High to 70 then 69 dungeon to 71 then highest level dungeon spam

#

It is Seji

cunning palm
#

so just regular dungeon would do for leveling up then?

twilit arch
#

potd only beats out dungeons, generally, if your queues for dungeons are longer than 15 mins

wintry chasm
#

^

#

Which is why DPS love Deep Dungeons even though it's boring after a while

rare sable
#

May I suggest the good but unpopular way of squadron....?

cunning palm
#

oh makes sense , im trying to level up my healer rn

#

so just regular dungeons then

rare sable
#

Highest level dungeon thats not 50 60 70 then

broken plaza
#

well if dungeons are faster thats even nicer to hear for me lol

#

something new rather than boring potd spam over and over 😄

#

meh i purchased 30 days activated it and steam still says the account doesnt have game time lol

when is next ishgard restoration ranking? i stared late on the first one, so could only end up at top 30

if they antsipated bot and no lifers inflating their scores (so easiest fix is to have short, multiple seasons using new mats each time so can't hoard the gathered things)

ok thx

#

do you need paladin unlocked or can u just buy the boost from the mog station when u have a level 1 gladiator

don't even need to have gladiator unlocked to buy/use the boost

all that matters is if you have the appropriate expansion applied to your account

Glamour FAQ
Info

"What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?"

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests "If I Had a Glamour" in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required to unlock Glamour, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest "Color Your World". You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender and choosing "Purchase Items".

"How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?"

Glamouring is done by right clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to have a different look and choosing the option "Cast Glamour". After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest "Absolutely Glamourous", buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or by buying them from the marketboard.

I mean, they technically cap out at 4, yes

#

But once you do the final quest, after maxing them all, they'll be at 7

stable herald
#

but no slogging it from 4 to 7 yes?

twilit arch
#

you're put at 7 instantly once you complete the quest

stable herald
#

phew thanks

@twilit arch Oh, cool. How do you do that?

Thanks!

mint shale
#

i've heard stuff about how i should be using lvl65 set instead of scaeven for tanking

#

why is that?

wintry chasm
#

the level 65 dungeon gear is just when the gear starts to actually become better than scaevan

#

That's really it

twilit arch
#

75

wintry chasm
#

Er

#

Yes

cunning palm
#

whys eden verse savage so hard

wintry chasm
#

numbers are hard

cunning palm
#

Q_Q

twilit arch
#

because savage isn't intended to be easy

mint shale
#

oh 75, not 65?

#

i thought it was 65

wintry chasm
#

Nooo

twilit arch
#

scaevan is lvl 70 gear

wintry chasm
#

^

mint shale
#

yeah i know, thats why iwas confused about using a lower lvl tanking set

twilit arch
#

they probably mean 75, not 65

mint shale
#

neat. thanks!

dusk venture
#

Is there a spot for lvl 70 FSH in diadem?

little swift
#

Yes

dusk venture
#

Could you tell me where please?

wanton fox
#

Hi everyone, I'm new to the game, currently playing on Trial edition but I noticed I have a Heavensward key not yet unlocked on my account, that I had gotten for free in the past. Does that Heavensward include ARR? I'm just trying to figure out the cheapest way to get all expansions, since Complete Edition is $60 right now

twilit arch
#

no, hw does not include arr

wanton fox
#

so there's no point in redeeming the key

twilit arch
#

well, its up to you

half pulsar
#

Does all food grant a 3% EXP bonus, or are there foods that grant more?

twilit arch
#

you could buy the base game and redeem the hw code, if you're not completely sold on the game yet

#

and wait for a sale to buy shadowbringers

half pulsar
#

@wanton fox Do you use the Steam or the standalone client?

wanton fox
#

Ah, that's true since the base game comes with 30 days game time right? I am 100% sold on it 🙂 I guess it just depends when shadowbringers would go on sale. @half pulsar I use the standalone cleitn

twilit arch
#

yes, it does

dusk venture
#

Is there a spot for lvl 70 FSH in diadem? If so, could you tell me the location?

half pulsar
#

ah, I see. I play on Steam and bought Shadowlands at 50% off a couple months ago

#

but I don't know if the standalone client was on sale at the same time

wanton fox
#

is there any downside to using the steam client to play rather than standalone?

half pulsar
#

you can't switch between the version

#

so if you got standalone now, you can't switch

#

without starting again at least

wanton fox
#

ah okay

twilit arch
#

well since you don't own the full game yet

#

you could go to steam full game, if you wanted

#

the main "problem" with steam is that you're locked into steam for any and all future purchases

#

but at the same time, you're also able to use steam wallet to pay for your sub/optional items

half pulsar
#

yeah, but that's not really a problem, and I think many steam users would prefer to have their payment method with Steam than with SE

ember ferry
#

same thing with mogstation tho
like for me Steam is slightly cheaper on expansions, cause they convert to my currency instead of Euro

half pulsar
#

it's also easier to have it alongside the rest of your collection if you play on Steam

ember ferry
#

but i can't go steam cuz i have everything on mog ;o;

wanton fox
#

But my HW key is SE, so it probably won't work in steam

twilit arch
#

that's true

#

can't cross the streams so to speak when it comes to the codes

feral crane
#

I've only started playing the game today and I've just met all the requirements for the 'A Sheepish Request' mission, but it won't let me complete it, why is that?

wanton fox
#

@twilit arch Thank you for your help! I think I'll go the route of buying the base game then buying shadowbringers as I slowly work my way through the content

twilit arch
#

god happy to help, hope you enjoy yourself

half pulsar
#

@feral crane it might be you have to turn them in. If you talk to the quest NPC, you should get a dialog where you can drag in the quest items

feral crane
#

That's where I am at. The 'complete' option is faded and it won't let me select it

half pulsar
#

you got the dialog? And you dragged in the meat from your inventory?

feral crane
#

Yes

gritty quarry
#

Is there any news on lifted gender restrictions for glamour items? I know there was the wedding stuff that had lifted restrictions, but what of other sets like the butler/housemaid outfits?

half pulsar
#

Hang on, Blend, I'm gonna try to see if the quest works for me

feral crane
#

Ok, thank you

wintry chasm
#

Can you screenshot Blendini?

#

I think I know what might be the issue

#

Because that quest gives you optional rewards, as in, you have to select a reward before you can complete it

feral crane
twilit arch
#

its something they said that they will be working on slowly over time @gritty quarry

feral crane
#

OH

wintry chasm
#

Yeah

#

Select one of those rewards

feral crane
#

That makes sense

#

Thank you lol

half pulsar
#

yeah, if it says options, you need to select one

gritty quarry
#

@twilit arch Yeah, I completely get that. I was more so curious if they were items that were already out, or a list of planned items.

twilit arch
#

no, and its pretty unlikely they'll give us a list of planned items

gritty quarry
#

There was a datamined list on Reddit as far as I'm aware, but it got deleted or something.

feral crane
#

Ok, the quest completed. Thanks for the help

twilit arch
#

the only way we'll know for sure when those items are made gender neutral is with patch notes

gritty quarry
#

Okay, that's fair enough. I appreciate the help.

#

The question was prompted by seeing a male Hyur with the housemaid items on but, that doesn't seem to be working for me so I assume that's not meant to happen yet.

grizzled mist
#

Aside from hand-me down gear you can give them, is there any difference to what class/job you assign your retainer?

jaunty jay
#

They only level to the same level as tou in that class

grizzled mist
#

Ah, so you can pretty much just make them the same job you main?

jaunty jay
#

Yup

#

If you want to craft having a miner or botanist helps a little to get pesky mats or shards

grizzled mist
#

Since battle classes have them slay monsters for mats, does making them a DPS help or anything?

faint flare
#

All combat retainers have thw same loot pool

twilit arch
#

nope

#

combat retainers only care about ilvl

#

so what job they are is irrelevant

grizzled mist
#

Ah, got it. Thanks for the help, all!

jaunty jay
#

You might get a fish or a wind shard regardless of their level or gear

wicked tendon
#

what are the best weapons at lv 60 again?

#

I know its the Shire set for armor

#

but I don't see a weapon

oak ice
#

Just get Augmented Shire for 600 poetics, finding a group to savage raid Alex is not worth it

twilit arch
#

you need to buy 10x Rowena's Tokens (Scripture) and 1x Micro Tomestone from the poetics vendor

#

and trade it to the girl next to her for the weapon

wicked tendon
#

ah I see

cunning palm
#

um how do i unlock duty roulette level 80 dungeons and expert?

sturdy mason
#

On Lodestone, is it possible to view someone's other classes besides the one that is presented?

#

(On the Profile tab that is, so I can see gear/stats)

twilit arch
#

lvl 80 roulette requires you to unlock Amourot (msq), The Twinning (unlock is in crystarium), and Akadaemia Anyder (unlock is in eulmore). Expert requires The Grand Cosmos and Anamnesis Anyder, both of which are msq

cunning palm
#

thanks!

twilit arch
#

no, no way to see their gear/stats for other jobs beyond the one that's currently showing

sturdy mason
#

What determines what is currently showing? Is it whatever class/job they are playing at the current moment? How long will it take to update if they change to a different one?

glass eagle
#

If I boost a Dragoon, how do I get the Drachen armour level 45/50 quest rewards please?

#

hey guys, i used to play on america for my friend awhile back, i was just wondering if i can move my character from a data center over to a different one?

blissful lava
#

Hello, is this channel where I can ask for help with content ?

#

To do content I mean

dusky nest
#

@brave flame yes that should be possible if you purchase the world transfer service

#

@blissful lava you might have more luck in the datacenter specific channels or their recruiting channels

brave flame
#

Oh wow, really!!! Thanks!!!!

blissful lava
#

Thank You @dusky nest

brave flame
#

Which server would be considered 2nd best for aussie people? cause i heard tonberry is congested and we can't get in atm

twilit arch
#

Tonberry's actually standard

#

so you can world transfer to it

#

its just temporarily locked to new character creation due to how many people are currently logged in

brave flame
#

oooo i see

odd bobcat
#

how do i crate the count down buton?

ancient smelt
#

i asked it few days ago how unlock other master recipe?

little swift
#

@odd bobcat you can find it in the party tab. just click and drag

#

@ancient smelt you can most of the master recipes from yellow crafter's scrips

#

traded at a scrip exchange vendor

#

there are also master recipes that require items that can be traded from Talan in Mor Dhona

dawn mountain
#

which dungeon does the genta set drop from? none of the google searches actually tells me how to get it

twilit arch
#

genta is from the deltascape raid

dawn mountain
#

Genta is basically a undyeable/easier set to get than genji, right?

twilit arch
#

yes

dawn mountain
#

oki

ancient smelt
#

i mean there is an recipe named
other master recipe

twilit arch
#

that's the demimateria books, you get them by trading 1x Fieldcrafte Demimateria 1 and 1x Battlecraft Demimateria 1 to Talan in Mor dhona

craggy dragon
#

what na server has a strong population, has good raiding and hunting communities, and is also crafter/gatherer friendly?

dusky nest
#

datacenter is the term you are looking for

#

also i dont see how one server could be more friendly to gatherers than another

craggy dragon
#

i was just looking at a server guide on reddit

#

seems like the servers are very different from one another

dusky nest
#

in terms of population they are fairly balanced

#

and content is done across the datacenter anyway

craggy dragon
#

can i hop between worlds in 1 data center freely?

dusky nest
#

there might be a queue if a server has lots of people on them, but otherwise you can hop servers yeah

#

just remember that its not a permanent transfer

#

but rather a temporary visit to another server

craggy dragon
#

ahh so youre saying

#

things like hunts and raids are across an entire data center?

dusky nest
#

dungeons, raids, trials, you queue across the entire datacenter for that stuff yeah

#

partyfinder is usually also across datacenter, unless you set it up to be server only

#

as for hunts, that should also work. at least i remember people jumping to different servers for S-Rank hunts

craggy dragon
#

ahh alright

#

well currently im on crystal and thinking about switching to primal then

#

seems like its more active, has a higher raiding and hunting community as well

zealous gate
#

Do we have a rough date when 5.25 drops? e.e sorry if this was asked before

faint flare
#

Roughly 2 weeks ish

#

2-3 weeks

stable herald
#

Cool beans. I've got Holy

#

Should I keep using it in mob packs?

#

I.e. spam it unless tank is dying?

left moth
#

Yes. Holy is basically a free tank cooldown in reducing the amount of damage they take for groups

#

In a small number of cases you want to use it even with no stun benefit as a basic aoe dps

#

Yes you have to get in bad breath range to use it unlike ast gravity

stable herald
#

Was gonna ask

#

How big is the range?

left moth
#

Pretty good although depends on view settings and where things are when you're casting (when the server is snapshotting what will be effected)

#

The tooltip has range so a lot of that is ballparking what a yalm means on screen

stable herald
#

Aite.

#

Do i also get a better heal? My cure 1 at 45 is a bit meh

#

Cures.. i dunoe.. ballpark 15% -ish?

#

Usually i use it with regen but at tail end of fights, im not sure if i5's worth it

#

Its

left moth
#

Cure 2 is the next bread and butter single target heal followed by an ogcd which charges during fights and is free/fast (want to say at 56)

stable herald
#

What point do you start using 2?

#

Level wise

left moth
#

After that assize is your best friend until get to shadowbringers content with the aoe ogcd

alpine shadow
#

lvl30 for cure 2

#

you get it from job quest

stable herald
#

I mean at what point is it more worthwhile to use cure 2 than 1

faint flare
#

The moment you get it

left moth
#

Around end of arr and heavensward can delete cure 1 mentally amd use regen for low healing priority topoffs

#

I want to say stone vigil is the breaking point

faint flare
#

You can especially delete it after getting lily heals

stable herald
#

Well... im 45. So uh..

faint flare
#

Lucid is enough mana

alpine shadow
#

delete cure???

stable herald
#

I think still a ways to go

alpine shadow
#

you probably want it on your hotbar anyways

#

level sync

faint flare
#

Eww sync

left moth
#

Migjt want to keep it until youre sure wont be getting low level dungeon in roulette

stable herald
#

I suppose. But its not a priority skill, yes?

faint flare
#

Its the lowest priority

stable herald
#

But cure 1 can trigger free cure?

faint flare
#

Ogcds heals > Regen and Lily heals > Cure 2 > Cure

#

Free cure is a noob trap

#

Whm has basically infinite mana

stable herald
#

Interesting

faint flare
#

Lucid is enough mana for everything

stable herald
#

Durr

alpine shadow
#

till you die, and lucid is on cooldown

left moth
#

In theory yes but if really need cure 2 there's little point to fishing for a freebe unless it's dps in healing need and not the tank

stable herald
#

I was wonderin if i was overhealing

left moth
#

Thin air is mich more useful as a panic button

stable herald
#

Still a distance away

#

Sigh.

faint flare
#

Slap regen on the tank, holy away, cure 2 when they're like 50% or so then holy again

stable herald
#

Anyway. Thanks guys!

left moth
#

Overhealing is for savage content. Dont worry as long as things are cleared and you can build the confidence in skills to contribute to group dps

wanton fox
#

Is it possible to change your character's race?

stable herald
#

Aits

faint flare
#

Use a fantasia @wanton fox

wanton fox
#

Oh cool, thank you

grizzled mist
#

Retainers can only have one class right?

faint flare
#

Yes

grizzled mist
#

For some reason I remembered them being able to take 3 lol

faint flare
#

Nope

#

They can swap jobs , but going from a job to a new class resets their level

#

Going from Class to job keeps leveld

grizzled mist
#

Going from Class to job
As in GLD > PLD for example?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Your level will be retained if going fron gld to pld

#

Or Gld to Any expansion job

grizzled mist
#

Ah, didn't know they could get jobs

#

But going from PLD or some other expansion job to a lower job will have them lose all EXP permanently?

slate arrow
#

not any expansion job

#

all jobs have their level independent from each other

#

However, all classes share EXP will their job

#

So like vinyl said, going from Gladiator to Paladin will have Paladin adopt the Gladitor's current level

#

And gladiator will always be the same level as paladin

#

Meanwhile, if you go pick up Red Mage, it starts at level 50 and will level up only red Mage if you're playing as red mage

#

So if you're a level 60 paladin and you pick up Red Mage, your red mage is level 50 and your paladin will not gain exp while you're playing red mage

grizzled mist
#

I think I got most of that, but it's still somewhat more confusing than I thought it'd be, so I might look up a more detailed guide @_@

#

Thanks!

slate arrow
#

tl;dr all jobs gain EXP independent of each other, you can't "lose" exp in regular content

#

#

do i have to complete all the coils of bahamut to unlock the final turn ones?

faint flare
#

You need to complete the final "turn" in each set to unlock the next set

#

So T5 unlocks 6-9

#

T9 unlocks 10-13

unreal badge
#

Also, if I'm trying to level up my squadron is it best to do it through training or missions?

grim jolt
#

@faint flare I'm a bit confused tbh, been trying to unlock final turn 2

noble pollen
#

A spectacle for the ages how do you avoid that death move?

faint flare
#

You need to Turn 9 (second coil turn 4) to unlock finap coils

all ok tyty

Which requires clearing Turn 5 in binding coils to unlock

#

Oh you kill the swords

You only need a lv20 crafter to start it

So not hard

#

So the Prism thingys, how many times can i use a single item and how does it work?, kinda confused

faint flare
#

Or a lv10 gatherer to gather mats in diadem for wxrips

tired glen
#

Diadem? What's that?

faint flare
#

You can reuse armour as much as you want

#

Special gathering zone for the restoration

tired glen
#

Ah...

faint flare
#

Has all the restoration mats in there

tired glen
#

I really should try my hand in that

#

I've just been spending time fishing in god knows where

faint flare
#

Go there via the missiom command guy inside the firmament

proven cliff
#

How many times can i reuse a glamour?

#

Or is it a one time thing?

faint flare
#

As many times as you want

#

Only the prism is consumed

#

If you do it the old way

proven cliff
#

And i need a new prism every time i want to apply the look to an item?

faint flare
#

If you do it manually and not via glamour plates

#

If you use glamour plates, you only pay to put the item in the glamour dresser...using the plate to apply the glamour costs nothing

#

Glamour plates are basically premade templates you create and can apply whenever you're in a city

proven cliff
#

so that's a lot better?

#

Or am i stoopid?

faint flare
#

Its alot cheaper

#

And you can link plates to your gear srts

tired glen
#

Technically, there's advantages and disadvantages to both sides.
Just plates have most of the advantages

faint flare
#

So you always have that glamour look for that job

#

(provided you swap in towns)

dusky nest
#

you can access the glamoru dresser in any inn room btw

faint flare
#

Or squadron barracks

tired glen
#

The only real disadvantages to plates are:
1)You can only set in cities/edit in inns
2)The limit of slots in your dresser

#

That's about it

dusky nest
#

i left squad out because he is still new and i dont think he has them already

faint flare
#
  1. number of plates
#

Only 15 plates

hopefully more in the future

the relics used to be endgame weapons, however now that you can quickly catch up gearwise and even outlevel it, they lost all their worth and are only used for glamour now

so its not worth grinding them to get a higher ilvl

Ah ok. Thank you!

Let's say i want to buy an item for Glamour, it's disciple of magic, can i use that on my disciple of war items?
nah, can only fit the appropriate classes unless the item says its useable on all

odd bobcat
#

@little swift can i crwate a macro?

#

Alsoo

#

Do i need to use glamour everytime i change one part of the gear or am i doing something wrong?

dusky nest
#

yes you have to reglam

faint flare
#

If you're doing it manually. If you're using glamour plates just reapply it

#

So yes

wintry chasm
#

^

#

If you just make a glamour plate and link it to your gearset it basically applies the glamours automatically whenever you equip the gearset which makes stuff like that a lot faster

#

How much money is considered a lot of money?, is 1m a lot?, and how long does it take to make that etc

left moth
#

since the game economy is inflated a lot usually starts around 50 to 100 million

proven cliff
#

;_;

#

so my 500k is nothing

#

oke

left moth
#

1 mil isn't too hard to make but depends a lot on what sort of content you can do or what you can sell on market board

sage plaza

if you can't drop 3mil and not blink you're not rich

odd bobcat
#

But does this glamour plate cost new glamour pieces?

sage plaza
#

from a main aetheryte (gridania, uldah, limsa etc . . . )

#

you can switch what server you're currently on to another one

#

the mb are separated

so prices may vary

so each city has thier own price?

@odd bobcat
It costs prisms to put items into the dresser but putting gear into plates and applying the plates don't cost anything

faint flare
#

No plates dont cost anything

like a picture book

Only cost to put stuff in

oh if you decide to look at that @odd bobcat be careful since obviously some quest names are spoilers

odd bobcat
#

so if i want to remove a glamour of an iten i need those black stuff?

faint flare
#

Yes, you need dispellers if you want to remove a glamour completely

odd bobcat
#

how do i see how it was originaly?

hoary storm
#

If you just want to apply another glamour you dont need to remove btw

odd bobcat
#

i cast a wrong glamour

proven cliff
#

I tried the game, kinda enjoyed it, bought it, got bored but fucking hell im loving it rn

faint flare
#

Use a dispeller to get it back to its original look

#

Right click the item > cast glamour > Remove

odd bobcat
#

so i can use normal glamour to remove glamour?

#

glamour prism**

What's the right topic if I'm looking for help with finding items for a glamour?

Er right channel

leaden ginkgo

does #endgame-discussion count or is that too much of a meme w

Glamour is endgame so....

Don't do the meme

Absolutely not

I'm thinking the crafted Ramuh sword, but no idea on the coat

wintry chasm
#

Yeah I can't think of a coat that'd have all those features but it does kinda feel like some of the Heavensward gear

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

odd bobcat
#

how do i make some gear itens become invisible

#

like earings?

hoary storm
wintry chasm
#

You can get these items called "Emperor's New XXXXX" and they are invisible

#

and you just glamour them on

cold crescent
#

That's Snow's coat, Reyes?

forest laurel
#

iirc they're in Horizon in Western Thanalan?

Bohemian's Coat

wintry chasm
#

Vesper Bay after you do a bluequest you need crafters a certain level for @forest laurel

odd bobcat

what is the clear prism?

wintry chasm

You can use those to make glamour prisms and stuff Shida

@wintry chasm

#

where i get those itens

The Emperor stuff?

#

It's easier to get it from Vesper's Bay

cold crescent
#

Oh, didn't know it was sold there

forest laurel
leaden ginkgo
#

dumb question, if i do the zodiac -> anima upgrade, can i go back and buy the zodiac if i wanted?

wintry chasm
#

I'm just trying to remember the bluequest name that you need to do before you can buy it

keen marsh
#

Anyone wanna help with light farm? we dont have a tank 😦

wintry chasm
#

You need to do this THEN you can buy the emperor stuff from the vendor

#

You don't want to get crafting to level 15 then you can buy it on the marketboard for what is most likely going to be an inflated price

#

@leaden ginkgo You...should be able to buy a replica

#

IIRC

left moth
#

should be able to get a replica per major step

leaden ginkgo
#

just the replicas? so you can't have a real zeta and a real lux at the same time if you do the upgrade? rip

#

i like 2 gilgamesh

forest laurel
#

is POTD a viable option for a tank to level? never done it before and it's getting tiring waiting for ppl to show up for Stone Vigil

wintry chasm
#

Sure you can Spy

left moth
#

check drake in north shroud before turning in to skip crystal step

leaden ginkgo
#

though i guess gilgamesh collects shoddy replicas anyway

wintry chasm
#

Just do the the relic quest line for ARR again /s

leaden ginkgo
#

nooooo

wintry chasm
#

or just don't do the upgrade thing. It doesn't save a lot of time anyway

#

It saves you...what? A few hours?

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah i'm just gonna do it normally

left moth
#

can have both you just have to do the first anima stage normally

is it guaranteed drop or you have exchange stuff for it?

You need to do it enough to get enough of the ixion horn rewards to trade in for the mount in Rhalgr's Reach

Thres another giant thunder horse mount in the block haha

wintry chasm
#

Not much to really explain. Glitching furniture to go where they aren't meant to or fit in ways they aren't meant to to make the house look way cooler @sturdy mason

#

eg make items float to make staircases

sturdy mason
#

Glitching is a feature or an abuse of bugs? That part is unclear to me

obsidian patio
#

Bug abuse technically, but SE won’t go after people unless they use it to get out of bounds of their house

sturdy mason
#

I see. How does one find a "designer" for this?

faint flare
#

Doesn't really hurt or anything

wicked tendon
#

once you get the shire set

#

does the ironworks set have any value?

faint flare
#

For other lv50 jobs that share that piece of gear

#

Ironworks gets beaten out after lv53, 55 if upgraded

wicked tendon
#

kk

echo tapir
#

@sturdy mason you have to make housing friends/ask around/network, and join housing discords basically for the fastest way

#

or you get good at it

#

glitching furniture is needed to make stuff float where it doesn't usually behave like that. e.g. stairs cannot be rotated so most of us will shove it on a partition and do a trick to make it float. another e.g. is that lofts do not hold anything up there, theyre totally useless unless you glitch items to snap to the "floor"

#

and if you do it wrong, it'll all fall back down and you have to redo it. also it's very hard to do these things on controller lol

What EU world would you recommend to start your very first adventure ?

obsidian patio
#

The preferred worlds give a big experience boost (+100% for all classes until level 70) along with 14 days of free subscription when you hit level 30.

If you don’t mind leveling up a bit slower then you can go with Ragnarok or Odin which have a somewhat bigger population

If I want to stock up on materia to meld my 5.3 gatherer set, what's the most efficient thing to farm atm? Obviously materia extract will just happen passively but should I be doing yellow scrips, diadem gathering, or something else?

@thick leaf not particularly. Maybe like once every 2-3 months

I've gotten really close to that with eggnog ex and looking like I will for sukazu (at 30 tomes without enough drop luck for a good roll)

obsidian patio
#

I personally like White Mage and Scholar currently. I used to be in love with Astrologian but with the 5.0 card changes they can feel a bit clumsy to use on controller while trying to also optimize damage

left moth
#

each healer plays differently. white mage is most straight forward and annoying to max out personal dps.
astrogian requires inventing profanity at the card system (still) and if really dependent on its role to buff other people in the party.
scholar is an old raid fave although not as popular because it requires pre-planning when to use fairy skills (regens), when to use preemptive healing (excog), and when to use reactive healing. it's main thing is shielding to avoid taking damage although ast can do this also to a certain degree

#

unlock wise they are a mixed bag. ast starts at 30 (requires foundation available) which is the same as the other 2 but they have starting classes so if are learning healing from scratch that's a little extra time

#

(to level the class from lv 1)
