@lime atlas what is your character's name? I want to see if I can find something on the lodestone page for them

lime atlas
#

francesco petrarca

mellow wagon
#

@obsidian patio nah i followed this guy from the lodestone

obsidian patio
#

No idea about the lodestone. I don't use it for the social stuff :X

mellow wagon
#

Also can you player search someone from a different server

obsidian patio
#

nope, they have to be on your server for player search

mellow wagon
#

huh alrght

obsidian patio
#

@lime atlas I don't see anything that would have me think that your character was "level reset", if you're the Francesco on Shiva

lime atlas
#

😦

obsidian patio
#

What achievements do you have if any?

lime atlas
#

i can't remember. it's been so long since i played.

#

just seemed like a good time to get back into it

#

with the quarantine and what not

obsidian patio
#

It sounds like someone may have logged into your account, deleted your character and made a copy of them.

lime atlas
#

well, shit

obsidian patio
#

As SE has never done anything against inactive players like removing levels or deleting them

#

You can try sending a support ticket in-game and ask what happened to your character.

lime atlas
#

good idea

#

oh

#

will they be able to respond with customer support down?

obsidian patio
#

It will take longer than usual, most likely

I wouldn't trust most data from consolegameswiki

#

it can be extremely outdated for a good amount of pages.

#

Like, some pages still reference cross-class actions, parry as a stat, accuracy, or even older sets of tomestones.

Hey there
BLM noob question about BLM:

What's the best, most efficient way to use triple-cast? Do I use it whenever it's available? On special situations like when there is a lot of movement so I can get my spells out quicky? Other?

warped nest
#

Usually A

slate arrow
#

use it for movement first and foremost

#

oh

warped nest
#

You don't want to sit on it for too long

slate arrow
#

Well it's entirely situational but usually you're popping it unless you have to save it for movement

#

in normal content though you should probably be saving it for unexpected movement

#

especially if it's your first time

warped nest
#

The short version is, You can hold triplecast a little bit if you know a movement heavy section is coming right up

slate arrow
#

BLM benefits the most from fight knowledge

#

other jobs are miles more flexible in terms of casts and movement

shut sigil
#

@warped nest @slate arrow I see, thank you 🙂

#

@slate arrow Really, really dumb question but would you say it is generally better to train, get to know difficult content (savage/extremes) first with a more flexible class before you go in with BLM?

slate arrow
#

@shut sigil it's perfectly fine to prog raids and extremes with BLM. heck, I mean world first shadowbringers ultimate had a BLM so if you know what you're doing it's not impossible

#

however I recommend extensively learning your kit and understanding your rotation first and what is and isn't optimal

#

See: world first BLM tea, the balance, etc

cunning palm
#

is BLM very difficult to play with or something?

obsidian patio
#

Since all of their damage comes from GCD moves, they rely heavily on minimizing movement

bleak citrus
#

How does loot work in shb raids, trials and such? If I clear a normal raid once, am I locked out of loot for a day or something?

obsidian patio
#

Trials don't have a loot lockout

#

for normal raids and 24-man raids, you get to loot one item per instance per week when they're relevant in terms of item level

bleak citrus
#

I see, tyvm

#

Oh when relevant

obsidian patio
#

Savage raids use a bit more of a complex system but this is basically how it works.

Once per week, you can clear each instance for a chance at winning anything from the coffer. You could get all the items or get none. You also always get a token item each week that can be exchanged for equipment from that instance.
If you skip an instance, you lose all chances of loot from the previous instances. So if you want to do Eden 8 Savage right away, simply entering the instance makes you lose out on all loot from Eden 5 to Eden 7 Savage, including the tokens that can be used to exchange for gear.
When you clear an instance with other people who cleared that week, less chests will spawn. If 1-4 people cleared that week then only one chest spawns, if more than 4 cleared then no loot drops. You still get the exchange token even if no chests spawn assuming that was your first clear for the week.

bleak citrus
#

Ah savage does seem to be more strict on who you bring

#

I guess I don't have to worry about that tho for now

obsidian patio
#

nah, all jobs are good in savage

bleak citrus
#

Oh no I meant if someone looted already or not

#

not job wisee

long narwhal
#

can a trial account use the refer a friend code?

lavish raven
#

Can I still relocate if my outdoor furnishing surpassed 40 total, but my indoor furnishing did not surpass 400?

cunning palm
#

is there a estimate number of how many dungeons clear for lvling up from 60 to 70?

warped nest
#

Well, with just armory bonus, you are looking at around 4-5 dungeons per level

#

Assuming you are doing 59, 61, 63, 65, 67, 69

cunning palm
#

do i have the armory bonus by default ? where can i check it

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ
Info

'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'

As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.

'How much is the bonus experience?'

You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.

warped nest
#

It is even faster if you have rested exp, it is the blue bar on your exp bar

cunning palm
#

oh yes i saw it before, how does it work?

#

now i dont have it

warped nest
#

Armory exp is automatically applied when you are getting exp as a DoW/M that is not your highest level DoW/M

#

Rested exp is gained when you hang out in sanctuary area

#

!faq restedexp

zinc orbitBOT
#
Rested Experience FAQ
Info

'Why does my EXP bar have some blue in it?'

That's Rested experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.

'How much of a boost is it?'

The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.

cunning palm
#

thanks

warped nest
#

On top of these 2, you can buy the cheapest food from NPC to get a 3 percent exp bonus for 30 minutes

#

It is not a lot, but cheap food cost like 50 gils

#

Oh

#

Wow

#

Correction

#

You can get Lowland Grapes for 4 gils

cunning palm
#

is it better to just spam dungeons instead of doing duty roulette MSQ that takes like 45mins ?

warped nest
#

Last 30 minutes, can stack up to 60 min

#

Msq and leveling give very good exp

#

Unless you don't have time to or have become sick of it, I suggest doing them

cunning palm
#

does it give a percentage of EXP or fix amount?

warped nest
#

MSQ roulette bonus is almost 2/3rd to 4/5th of a bar

#

Most, if not all Roulette always give exp by percentage of your bar

#

Leveling is around 1/3rd

#

Another thing you can do is doing the daily beast tribes in Stormblood and the daily hunts from Kugane

#

Beast tribe is scaled from 60-70, you can do 3 for each of the 2 beast tribe. You get additional 3 if you rank up the beast tribe in the same day

#

Daily hunt is fixed exp, I want to say around 4.7 mil exp for 15 types of target ranging from lvl 60-70

cunning palm
#

thanks!

feral bough
#

can you do shb caster role quests as BLM and accept the exp reward as SMN?

fresh lodge
#

You have to be the level of the quest to turn it in

feral bough
#

sweet, so yes

glossy sparrow
#

So hey, I've bought year ago FFXIV complete edition for PC and now I'm going to buy complete edition on my PS4 so there's a question. Will I have this free 30 days subscription from PS4 complete edition if I had from PC?

#

Sorry, English is my second language and if my question doesn't have sense just tell me

wintry chasm
#

Yes

#

Wait

#

Just to be clear

#

You won't get 30 days from the PC complete editon version

#

But you'll get the 30 days from registering the complete editon on PS4

glossy sparrow
#

I mean I had this 30 days when I registeres game year ago on PC

#

Now I want to buy this on my PS4 and idk if I will have another 30 days because of registering game on my PS4

#

gonna use same mogstation acc

hot eagle
#

you get the 30 once per system, 30 days for arr/starter pc/steam, 30days for the ps4 and you could get another 30d if u get it for mac

glossy sparrow
#

Oh so i will get another 30 days

#

thats nice

hot eagle
#

yeah so long you didnt own arr/starter on ps4 before

glossy sparrow
#

Also complete edition have shadowbringers or only ARR, Heavensward and Stormblood

hot eagle
#

complete is the starter/arr + shadowbringers

#

latest expansion gets you all older ones also

glossy sparrow
hot eagle
#

that is a old copy

sturdy mason
#

Is there a way to view my playtime on Lodestone, or some other source outside of the game?

hot eagle
#

dosent give you shadowbringers

glossy sparrow
#

Gonna call them and ask

#

Cuz it's not worth it then I think

hot eagle
#

its on sale atm if you order from square

#

50% off

wintry chasm
#

@glossy sparrow so when you registered the game on PC, did you log in?

glossy sparrow
#

@wintry chasm Yes, it was year ago lol

#

@hot eagle but I dont live in UK so thats a problem with ordering

wintry chasm
#

Right then yeah the only game time you're going to have is from this complete editon

sturdy mason
#

My question got a bit lost above :(

Anyone know if I can see my playtime outside of the game anywhere?

wintry chasm
#

Only how long your character has existed for basically

#

Unless you're on Steam

forest laurel
#

idk what to even get from the GC with the seals I have
none of the weapons and armour interest me glamour-wise

#

is there anything from GC that could be sold for some extra gil?

faint flare
#

More cordials, more prisms, more dark matter...or check the market board for prices on mats

whole wasp
#

Check coke too

#

Maybe reagent pepper and the stuff for zodiac weapons

#

Repelling arrow etc

dusky nest
#

petrified logs maybe

forest laurel
whole wasp
#

The fireworks tend to end up everywhere as consolation prices.

mossy parrot
#

^

#

or the stupid hovering symbol

bleak halo
#

What are those shiny weapons and how to get them? Im lvl 33 so no chance for me right? Is it end game gear ?

faint flare
#

Glowing weapons are typically relic weapons, and there's a relix weapon every old level cap (50/60/70)

bleak halo
#

How to identify relic weapons?

whole wasp
#

Ultimate weapons also tend to glow but thats the endest of endgame so not anytime soon.

faint flare
#

Other glowing weapons are from ultimate fights, which is the toughest difficulty

whole wasp
#

Right click, inspect

faint flare
#

Relic weapons are a loooooooong grindy quest line

whole wasp
#

Look at thr name google it.

mossy parrot
#

Depends on which ones you mean, there's some you get from POTD, which you can enter pretty early on (like level 15 or so?), some can be crafted, some acquired otherwise, as the others already stated

faint flare
#

Typically called Zeta, anima and eureka weapons

whole wasp
#

For the final step. All the in between steps have different names too

#

Too many to list. Google is your friend there

bleak halo
#

So you get those relic weapons from tough raids? I assume the drop rate is low?

faint flare
#

No

#

Relics are just super grindy quest lines

#

Drop rates for the materials like the special crystals from fates may be somewhat low but no proper raiding required

whole wasp
#

Its not hard, just grindy.

#

Like 1 or 2 month long grind for arr/hw and 2/3 month grind for sb

faint flare
#

everyone groans at the sound of Books and Light grinding

bleak halo
#

Rip

whole wasp
#

Shinryu weapon is shiny? I cant recall.

faint flare
#

Oh yeah

#

Crafted primal weapons

#

Are a thinf

obsidian oracle
#

Tornamatch ones are too

faint flare
#

Glowy

#

Can just buy those off market board

#

Or farm thw mata and toss them to a crafter to make them for you

bleak halo
#

What are the cost on the market for relic weapons ?

faint flare
#

You cant directly buy relic weapons

#

Only some of the items

bleak halo
#

Or can you only buy crafted primal weapons

#

well thats hard then hahaha

faint flare
#

Gil isn't that hard to come buy at later levels to buy some crafted primals for some easy glowies

feral crane
#

I'm looking through my actions menu, and there are three spells (gust, gouge and glittering topaz) that I'm not allowed to put on my hotbar or even be able to use from the menu, why is that?

faint flare
#

Cause those are used by your pet

#

Gust is the auto emerald does

#

Gouge is tue auto topas does

#

And glittering i think is one of emeralds egi assault attack

feral crane
#

Oh ok. But so far my pet is only using gust, is there a way I can change that?

faint flare
#

Use egi assaults to command it

sage spruce
#

If i'm an archer and staying archer and leveling with my friend. Can I do the Rogue questline with him without affecting my progression (doesn't matter if I get the rogue job while not needing it) ?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Levels are separate

sage spruce
#

alright ty

robust crow
#

my friend advised me to keep all my low level crafting and gathering gear

#

because I'd need it

#

but recently I decided "fuck buying all the mats I can't gather"

#

so once I get all my DoL/DoH to 60 or so, can I just sell all my low level crafting gear

#

to save inventory space

#

I guess the only situation I'd need it again would be if they release a new DoL/DoH

mossy parrot
#

eh I mean provided you do the quests you get most stuff again anyway, personally I found the inventory management more bothersome then the actual lack of gear hurt me during levelling

#

can i have 1 item be different colors in different glamours?

#

If you dye each glamour plate differently yes

Put the same item on two different glamour plates > dye the item on the plate differently > done

blobcatblushies cool

onyx kiln
#

what does this date mean when you go through your retainer list?

whole wasp
#

your retainer sells items up to a week? i think from the last time you touched it

onyx kiln
#

so will the items not show up on the market after a week has passed?

raw solstice
#

yeah, they stop being listed if you don't interact with your retainer before that date

#

as soon as you do they get relisted and timer reset

frosty rivet
#

Hey everyone. I started out yesterday so I'm a little confused on the class/job system. I picked lancer when creating my character but I started out as a marauder? When do I get to start the lancer class? This is on a free trial account.

faint flare
#

You probably didn't confirm your selection or accidently missed clicked when selecting jobs

frosty rivet
#

damn

faint flare
#

If you want lancer you'll need to get access to gridina (lv15 ish msq) and do your lv10 job quests to pick up other jobs

#

Or just remake

frosty rivet
#

well I got to level 15 with my friends last night so I might as well keep it

#

should I just head straight to gridina?

faint flare
#

You'll go to gridina as part of the MSQ

#

Limsa envoy quest or whatever its called

#

When you go on the airship

#

Earliest you can go to other cities (since Limsa is its own island and cant walk to others)

leaden ginkgo
#

also the ferries that would take you off limsa's island are closed until you do the airship trip anyway

#

some other ferries are closed too, forget which ones

shrewd crescent
#

Is it fine to change back into a male character after you’ve already bought some female glamours from the mogstation?
Or should you just make a new one, and buy the full story skip for that one?

whole wasp
#

you can change back. most glamours can be traded for the other gender's version

#

with the calamnity salvager

shrewd crescent
#

Is that’s what they are for?
I never understood the calamity salvager.

whole wasp
#

the calamnity salvager is basically the lost and found for old quest rewards, changing gender gear, old job quests reward etc

#

old seasonal gear too

shrewd crescent
#

Unless you’ve made them into glamours, right?

whole wasp
#

not necessarily

#

you trade item for item

shrewd crescent
#

So you have to take them out of the box and trade them, then just put them back?

whole wasp
#

i think so

#

just go to the calamnity salvager and browse the inventory. it'll tell you what you have to trade

twilit arch
#

old seasonal gear is on the recompense officer

tawdry otter
#

I cancelled my subscription. In addition to this I use a service account for my assistants. Does this also apply if I have cancelled my subscription? How does it work when I reactivate my account? Can I continue to use my third assistant?

dusky nest
#

the other retainer will run out when the sub runs out. when you sub back you will have to pay for it again

lyric warren
#

do you get sub day compensation for these full day server technical difficulties?

faint flare
#

There's zhloe...the pig guy Is lv66+ turn ins so yes only 1 hw custom

twilit arch
#

if the game isn't down for over 24hrs, its pretty unlikely there's going to be any compensation

lyric warren
#

ah ok

twilit arch
#

Besides, its like 2c or something super small

cunning palm
#

is there a setting for auto skipping cutscenes?

stark sleet
#

There is one to auto skip ones you've seen before, such as boss intros. I'm not sure if there is one to auto skip all cutscenes.

cunning palm
#

yes that would do

#

where can i find that ?

#

found it

#

nvm thanks

stark sleet

👍

heady scarab
#

Hi, just started doing heavensward MSQ and finding that mobs are dying slower or I can’t pull anymore than 2 before I need to worry about HP. Is this just a scaling thing? My gear is i116. Thank you 🙏🏻

faint flare
#

Your ilvl is the basic entry ilvl

#

It could be better, since poetics give you i120-130

stark sleet
#

There tends to be a bit of a gear jump when you reach a new expansion

heady scarab
#

Ahh fair enough, I might go cash in some poetics 👌🏻 thank you!

wintry chasm
#

Also expansion mobs are just tougher by design @heady scarab

#

It's a natural shock to the system coming out of A Realm Reborn

heady scarab
#

Haha yeah, I was surprised to be doing full rotations against general mobs. Good to get clarification though 😂

manic oasis

hey guys 🙂 i just got into using my retainer and selling on marketboard, ive been doing pretty well with my retainer in limsa but im not sure where to put my second retainer :/ is there a "2nd best/convenient" location ?

@manic oasis for the most part there isn't too much of a difference anymore since all purchases are taxed now. Place them wherever

Is there a noob question section? Do advanced jobs like WHM start at level 1?

unborn light

When is the rest of 5.2 coming out? The weapon part

little swift
#

5.25 wish bear

twilit arch
#

5.25 should be like in a week or two

amber cipher
#

im running out of space, wanted to know if i can dump my early level conjurer/WHM weapons

twilit arch
#

jobs are basically extensions of their base class

#

so no, they don't start at lvl 1, they technically start at lvl 30

amber cipher

thank you for the response

Yokai watch yes

#

Yea they just mentioned they will rerun it at some point

So look out for that

#

Other than that i suppose the chocobo red mage weapon is funny

#

From upgrading your expansions to collectors edition

#

If im not wrong

late temple
#

Anything I should use yellow gathering scrips on?

leaden ginkgo
#

Did you grab the shb books for gatherers?

late temple
#

No no idea what that is

leaden ginkgo
#

In the level 70 section there is a token called

#

Rowena something

late temple
#

Supa nooby here sorry

#

Ok

leaden ginkgo
#

You need 40 tokens per book

strange coral
#

Regional Folklore tokens I think

leaden ginkgo
#

Aye

late temple
#

What do books do

strange coral
#

And then trade those at the Splendors Vendor

leaden ginkgo
#

The unlock additional nodes and crafting recipes

late temple
#

And then I can be rich?!

strange coral
#

Otherwise, I use my yellow scrips to keep a comfortable supply of Hi-cordials

unreal badge
#

Hey can anyone help me determine why the launcher is super slow on my machine?

#

game is installed on an SSD

#

the launcher works faster on my Microsoft Surface and my bf's old laptop than it does on my beefy desktop

#

For example, when I enter my login credentials it kinda locks up for a bit before it proceeds whereas on those other machines it just moves onto the play button instantly

twilit arch
#

yeah you have to have a sub

spiral scroll
#

btw

#

about the sub

#

u can still use the entry version sub if u dont have more than 8 characters on a world?

#

" An introductory subscription allowing 1 character per World (monthly billing only).

  • A maximum of 8 characters can be created."
#

i mean less than 8 characters

twilit arch
#

You can be on entry even if you have 8 characters on a world, you just won't be able to access any beyond the first on that world

#

its just saying that you can only have a total of 8 characters created if you have entry

@leaden ginkgo not really, its pretty strongly recommended that new players pick preferred servers (they have a star next to them when selecting a server after character selection) for the exp bonus. Duty finder is cross server, and you can world visit to another server. Main things that are server locked are free companies (player guilds) and housing

Harder

#

More chances to die and potentially wipe...mechanics happen (somewhat) faster and dps checks are higher

red junco
#

How the heck do people have time to learn like 4 whole fights...?

faint flare
#

By making time to play and learn. All fights are scripted out the rear so in the end, it becomes muscle memory

#

Most mechanics are reused or very similar to other mechanics in the past

#

Just comes down to how quickly you pick up things

#

And learn how to deal with mechs

red junco
#

I mean I did Hades EX, how rough can Eden's verse be...?

heady path
#

do shb fates drop tomestones of allegory? I need 5 more and don't want to waste a beast tribe

They do not

faint flare

Edens verse has aoes that one shot you without mitigation, busters that can oneshot without mitigation (hello double slap...), barely any aoe markers and strict timings and failing mechs and lead to multiple people dying (conflag strike, chain lightning, tornado/colours...Light rampart/

spiral scroll

I'm a newbie and reached lv 31 with White Mage.

But while on Parties, I can't concentrate on HP bars and the battlefield at the same time.
I'm playing on PS4 with Dualshock, so I need to select people to heal from the menu and that distracts me

My question is: Is that because I don't have much experience with the game? Or I should adjust some settings? Do Healers have more difficulty on controller?

wicked tendon
#

When should I look for a static in this game?

faint flare
#

You'll eventually get used to it.. I moved over to controller recent and took abit to get used to and healing with controller is pretty comfy personally

#

Up/down on directional buttons select members, tanks will typically be the second so yoy press down twice to heal them

#

Dps shouldnt be hit much outside of unavoidable aoes which medica deals with

wicked tendon
#

if you want more time to adjust on what your next options are going to be, spells with instant cast times but use the global cooldown

give you time to think/adjust

next steppe
#

this might be silly, but is there any way, macro, any program or anything at all to notify me when someone in my party dies? I admit I'm kinda visually impaired, and sound effects help me a lot when it comes to drawing my attention to stuff. Since I've been playing SMN a little bit lately, I'd love to help out with rezzing and stuff if I can, but have a hard time focusing on my hotbar, the enemies, and the party list!

#

any suggestions at all would be great!

obsidian patio
#

Best that you can do is to have a chat log that only shows deaths

sage plaza
#

blow up the party list, put it nearish center

obsidian patio
#

Unless you use external programs

next steppe
#

heh yeah, I've moved the party list in towards the middle which helps a bit!

But yeah, making the party list bigger is a good start

are there any external programs that could help with something like that?

as for third party program

yes

are there any titles you get for crafters?

The current title for all crafters at 80 is Soul of the Craft

To all you MT how do you juggle so many variables when it comes to doing even stuff like Dungeons?

• when to pull big or not
• remembering every mechanic and tank buster
• positioning

faint flare
#

Check the healers gear, if its equal or better than the dungeon, you shoupd be able to pull big

#

Dungeon mechs are trivial and busters dont hurt

oak ice
#

Always big pull

#

Always, always, always

faint flare
#

^

#

Big pull until you die

#

The motto

polar cairn
#

hell yeah

#

big pull or die

#

its good for player commendations also

faint flare
#

If you die who cares, few seconds lost

polar cairn
#

that shouldnt happen in regular dungeons tho

faint flare
#

Keyword: shouldnt

rose eagle
#

only happens to me when helaer d/c's

oak ice
#

Positioning is 99% of the time "keep the back free so melees can hit positionals", very few fights like O9 where you have to put them closer to one side of the arena

faint flare
#

But these cure 1 healers oh boo

if i start a macro can i stop it?

strange coral
#

Tankbuster is often first or second cast in later content by my observations

faint flare
#

Use another macro

open coral
#

As a healer, my recommendation to all tanks is "pull as much as you're comfortable with", by which I actually mean "pull as big as you want, but be ready to use your cds or I'm going to let you die"

ancient smelt
#

ah ok ty

oak ice
#

If you're not comfortable with wall to wall pulls, get comfortable with it

polar cairn

yeah a rampart is just fine

Generally I don't have an issue with w2w. Generally.

Can someone help explain weekly hunts to me? Also the party finder for it? I was doing quests in the fairy place and I saw like 50+ ppl fighting one hunt then moving to the next

#

Ppl were asking to join party and they said to join party finder

#

But no idea how that works/how people even get involved in it to begin with

#

in Il Mheg*

oak ice
#

A and S rank hunts aren't weekly

#

Hunts spawn in the overworld, but S ranks have special conditions to spawn

#

So if you find one you can just get a squad (or solo it if it's not current expac)

open coral
#

There are three types of hunts. Daily and weekly hunts are started by accepting the hunt bills from the relevant hunt board (in your GC, Ishgard, Kugane/Rhalgar's Reach, and Crystarium/Eulmore.

oak ice
#

Why they told people to look in PF I have absolutely no idea

open coral
#

A and S ranks are different though. Those are the ones you find a PF group for.

#

But those can be spammed, and killed for rewards more than once per week.

shrewd relic
#

Are all hunt board bills the same? Like in GC or Ishgard?

faint flare
#

They're different

#

Different levels and all

open coral
#

No, the GC ones are for level 50, Ishgard is for 51-60, Kugane/Rhalgar's is 61-70, and Crystarium/Eulmore is 71-80

shrewd relic
#

Do they all give different seals?

open coral
#

Sort of.

shrewd relic
#

For example riding maps

#

If I did ishgard hunts, would I be able to use it for like limsa maps?

open coral
#

No.

faint flare
#

Gc hunts gived allied seals for maps, ishgard gives centurio seals

open coral
#

Each expansion's hunt currencies can only be exchanged for goods from the relevant expansion's hunt vendors.

shrewd relic
#

Ahh okay that makes sense

#

So how does party finder work?

#

I'm confused about all the crossworld hunt groups as well...

#

Or how to join an open party

open coral
#

In party finder you can sometimes find people doing "hunt trains", which are basically multiple groups of people going around killing A and S-rank hunt mobs in specific orders.

dusk zenith
#

is there a list that shows all the mats needed for the job quests?

#

i could only find one from 1-60

open coral
#

To join an open group, simply select it in the party finder list and then click the "Join Group" button at the bottom of the screen.

shrewd relic
#

Ahh okay I see...so for hunt trains will they only hunt specific ones? Like a hunt train for allied seals, and a separate one for centurio seals?

open coral
#

Yes, typically trains will stick to the zones for a specific expansion.

shrewd relic
#

I see, so all I need is to pick up the current bills and join the party

open coral
#

For trains you don't even need the bills since the bills are for daily and weekly targets.

shrewd relic
#

Ive never exactly joined a party though so will I be able to see their locations on the map?

open coral
#

A and S ranks are non-billed hunts, and can be killed for credit whenever they spawn.

#

Those are what the trains go after.

shrewd relic
#

Ahh okay

#

So A/S ranks I will still receive credit even if I havent picked up the bills

open coral
#

If you're in the same zone as your party members, you'll be able to see them as blue dots on your map and minimap

shrewd relic
#

The hunt bills are more solo content?

open coral
#

Correct.

shrewd relic
#

like on my own time I could manage to do them

open coral
#

The daily are basically to kill a certain number of standard mobs.

#

The weekly is a single B rank, which are soloable if you know what you're doing (but are easier if you have a group because they're always max level for that expansion).

#

You've probably seen B rank hunts in the world. They have the special blue aggressive mob marker next to their names, and they're always named mobs.

obsidian patio
#

A/S ranks don’t have bills

shrewd relic
#

So crossworld hunts play into this due to party finder? And ppl switching worlds to join these huge parties?

obsidian patio
#

Yep

open coral
#

Yes. Crossworld hunts, the trains will world visit to specific worlds in order to hunt down A and S ranks.

shrewd relic
#

Okay wow that was a lot of info

#

To sum it up:
theres daily/weekly hunts
A/S rank dont need bills
Party Finder can list trains to hunt A/S ranks even across diff worlds

#

Diff seals for diff expansions

#

Is this right? 😮

open coral
#

That pretty much covers it, yes.

#

ooh one more question: whats the best resource people use to find out locations of these hunt mobs?

oak ice
#

Gamerescape, just google the name

open coral
#

Or join a hunt linkshell or three and just follow people around when you're in a train. They'll usually link a coordinate marker when they relay locations.

shrewd relic
#

oh god

#

how do i join hunt linkshells 😭

faint flare
#

Ask for one

hoary storm
open coral
#

By asking in /shout chat if there are any hunt linkshells you can join (the best time for this is right after an A or S rank dies in your zone, or if you see /shout announcements from a hunt train.)

shrewd relic
#

Do i need an item to join the linkshell? Or is it just an invitation like a friend request?

Just an invitation.

north pumice
#

ah i see

warped nest
#

With the context of Swift cast and LB in the previous question

#

I made the assumption that the question is "can I swiftcast and use Triplecast faster"

sturdy mason
#

I don't understand this. At first I thought it was really OP food, but it's actually a decoration. But how can decorations give you a buff?

little swift
#

yes

#

it turns into an empty plate once you use them all though

#

its basically just displayable food

sturdy mason
#

Alright. So this seems like garbage to me

icy finch
#

Tempted to start ff14 since quarantine. I wasted my free month trial away last year. They have the FF14 starter edition on PSN for $19.99 is thay enough to start playing

little swift
#

@icy finch free trial doesn't expire

icy finch
#

I meant i used the trial for a day or two then quit

little swift
#

you can redownload it and continue if you want

if you make an account during the old versions of the trial then you have to upgrade sadly

hey guys- if i buy a code for the full game is there a time limit on how long i have to redeem it?, i saw the free trial can be play up to level 35 or something so i was wondering if i can play the trial version until that point

noble pollen
#

Yeah just play the trial until that point then purchase the game if you feel like. I believe thats how that works

No point in buying the game if theirs a trial you can play. If you like the game after the trial is over then purchase it.

@noble pollen by....casting swiftcast then raise?

Thanks, im not a healer but i was recently told i can instant rez as an archaist. Never really thought to until i 3maned sephiroth with some people.

The game is picking up for me, becoming a bit of a challenge, its time to learn some stuff

how do i search a player then blacklist him?

I don’t think you can blacklist people through player search anymore

hi ! i want to know something, i'm playing the free trial game and a friend say to me that i can play for 14 days, is that true ?

faint flare
#

Trial time is unlimited

#

They have outdated info

wintry chasm
#

Way outdated

#

Unlimited time, can't go above level 35

#

Some social restrictions and whatnot

polar depot
#

m'ok ! thank you !

#

hum just other question, i don't know what it is (the picture) i tought that we could have just one job or it is like FF3 we can collect spells and skills from other jobs ?

twilit arch
#

nope, you can be all jobs on one character

polar depot
#

oh !

#

m'okay !

#

so our character is just like the Freelance job in a certain way ? but force to choose a job in game start ?

faint flare
#

You just turn into that job when you equip theor weapon

strange coral
#

Kinda, except you can't be job-less. Always have to have a weapon equiped, which determines the job

faint flare
#

Your level is based on whatever level your current job you're on is

#

ok ! thank you !

late temple
#

When they dropping the augments for allegory stuff

leaden ginkgo
#

Just went to nacille, a biocolor gemstone exchanger, to buy butterfly affect the minion but she wasn’t selling it even though everywhere on the internet says she does. Is there a prerequisite I need to do?

faint flare
#

Do more fates in the area to rank up

#

Check the Shared fated screen

#

@late temple you can augment allegory gear via savage. Non savage method comes in 5.3 with the 24man and will require Copy factory's coin + the new one. As always, only armour and accessory augments will be available at the start with weapon augment trade ins added later

The GATE section is a bit outdated with it having removed GATEs (skinchange and wind), but everything else should still be accurate

oak ice
#

Any way the wind blows is still a thing, no?

twilit arch
#

nope

#

oh wait

oak ice
#

I had it not too long ago

#

Just ridiculously rare

twilit arch
#

its uh..the simons says GATE that got removed

#

not any way the wind blows

obsidian patio
#

Ah, right

sturdy mason
#

On the Seph EX fight, after the 2 pillars come out the first time, I think I'm getting shot at by green balls from somewhere. What is that?

twilit arch
#

time of my life

oak ice
#

That is a mechanic you need the green shield buff to feasibly survive

obsidian patio
#

People with the orange debuff need to soak the pillars, people with the green debuff take the tethers

sturdy mason
#

I had Orange buff in that case

#

Why am I getting hit by it? How do you avoid it?

obsidian patio
#

Pretty much only Paladin can feasibly solo Sephirot due to that phase

oak ice
#

Then it's going to hit you really fucking hard

sturdy mason
#

yeah but in a normal run how do you avoid it?

oak ice
#

You avoid it by passong the tether to someone else

sturdy mason
#

Oh I didn't have the tether

#

I passed it to someone

unreal badge
#

how do I do fashion report?

#

do I make a glamour plate?

obsidian patio
#

After you soak the towers you run to a spot the green AoE circles aren’t in.

oak ice
#

No, just equip the items and talk to Masked Rose and choose the option to present for judging

sturdy mason
#

I try to hug the edge and avoid them

unreal badge
#

wait equip what items? just whatever I want?

sturdy mason
#

The orange buff doesn't go away after you take a hit at the tower right?

obsidian patio
#

There’s a theme each week.

oak ice
#

The items he wants to see for that week

obsidian patio
#

This is the current week’s theme with the items figured out

#

Each theme has a set of items that work for it

oak ice
#

No, the orange buff stays for the duration it says

#

It will be the tower, the tether and one or two of those orbs covering half the arena each

unreal badge
#

oh thanks!

sturdy mason
#

yeah so when I'm orange, I run to a green buff person, pass it to them, then I run my ass to the edge of the arena, pretty much between where 2 of those orbs touch. There is a very small safe spot

obsidian patio
#

Yep

sturdy mason
#

What was weird is, after I passed the tether, I got hit by the green bullet like 2-3 seconds after

obsidian patio
#

The green people can grab the tethers at the front so you do not need to run to them

sturdy mason
#

not really a bullet but it wasn't the green orbs growing out of the ground

obsidian patio
#

Then they didn’t grab your tether, it sounds like

sturdy mason
#

at least, it looked like something got shot at me

obsidian patio
#

Do you have a full party of 8?

oak ice
#

Do note that you cannot pass the tether to someone who already has 1, and if you're 4 people or fewer, everyone will get one

sturdy mason
#

no we're farming lanner, so we did 7, hard to find a full party. We were unsynced too

obsidian patio
#

That’s why, sometimes there are only 3 green people

#

So they couldn’t grab all 4 tethers

sturdy mason
#

this is the most miserable lanner to farm

obsidian patio
#

Thankfully only Sephirot is like this

#

The others you can burn past a majority of mechanics

sturdy mason
#

4.0 isn't this bad?

#

oh I misunderstood, this is the last bird I need so I assumed you meant SB

obsidian patio
#

You still see most of the mechanics for the later ones, but nothing too jank caused by a smaller party size

@leaden ginkgo That looks like another game entirely...

leaden ginkgo
#

@leaden ginkgo became the bad guy

obsidian patio
#

@sturdy mason
System Settings >> Mouse >> Use software cursor >> Change size to large

#

Besides that, you may need to look into mods

that's a screenshot from a different game as far as I'm concerned

fwiw i dont want to look like that

it's tacky wearycarby

leaden ginkgo

mod probably?

ruby remnant
#

Hmm, ok, so I recently came back to play,
Just want to ask this quick question.
I had already recruited 5 friends but they have all stopped playing. But really want to recruit another friend for that managram mount (red Fenrir) is there anything I can do? Like removing one of the friend as my recruit?

obsidian patio
#

You can recruit more people without issue

#

But you won’t get the feathers from them until they sub longer than your previous recruits did

little swift
#

that's from vindictus

#

its the dark knight transformation

#

@leaden ginkgo

#

so technically i guess dark knight is in the game?

question about GNB job quest

#

since it starts atlvl60, do I need to be in SHB t do the 60+ job quests?

#

i done the lvl60 ones

#

but forgot what it said about the subsequent one

little swift
#

no you just need to own SHB

obsidian patio
#

From what I can tell with a brief skimming of the quests it does go to ishgard

little swift
#

as far as i remember the gnb job quests take place in arr and hw areas

#

so you don't need to be in shb but at least into heavensward?

obsidian patio
#

Dancer on the other hand does go into stormblood areas for the level 70 quest.

mint shale
#

neat thanks! post HW and thinking of catching up on my job quests... wait then again GNB doesnt have skills locked behind job quest until lv68

#

Its a ritual, every crafter have to go through at least once

actually i didnt

#

cus common sense would imply its the same type of rings used in something like chainmail

or construction metal rings

#

or rings that form a metal chain

ah there it is

so many damn recipe books!!!

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a limit to how many level boosts you can buy, someone told me there used to be but not anymore?

obsidian patio
#

no limit anymore

dawn mountain
#

is there a limit to how many times I can go to Eureka?

obsidian patio
#

nope

robust crow
#

what bait is the best for level 10 fishing at diadem?

#

or does it not matter

silver mountain
#

Hey guys, new player here (WoW refugee). I selected Light data center even though I don't know the difference between it and Chaos, now I see there is no preferred server (although Lodestone shows there are preferred ones atm). Should I wait until a preferred world pops up for EXP bonus or just start playing?

robust crow
#

the EXP bonus is irrelevant imo

#

your entire game progress is tied to story progression

#

so even if you hit level 80, if you aren't doing the story quests you're about as useful as a level 1

silver mountain
#

That's what I thought.

robust crow
#

and the base story XP is more or less going to get you to exactly 80

#

and if not, you can do some roulette dungeons to supplement

#

EXP bonus would've been best had on a 2nd job

twilit arch
#

the bonus exp isn't irrelevant

robust crow
#

i also advise to take the game slow and enjoy the story

twilit arch
#

it'll make leveling thru the msq a lot smoother because you won't have to do as much to keep apace with msq lvl

silver mountain
#

I don't know how I should choose my server/data center though. Like the servers I can find active guilds/alliances and so on...

robust crow
#

some of my friends who did it with a level boost were at like level 70 in heavensward

#

that's a bit overkill

twilit arch
#

yeah but its a lot better than playing catch up

robust crow
#

not boost, I meant xp boost

#

i suppose so, if you play the game for like 12 hours a day

mint shale
#

Imagine being in Heavensward with all lvl 70 jobs

robust crow
#

I leveled pretty consistently over the span of a month or so and had MSQ or leveling roulette up whenever I needed to supplement

silver mountain
#

Well there are no preferred servers at the moment anyways. I don't know when they would show up

twilit arch
#

currently for light, the current preferred servers are zodiark and twintania

silver mountain
#

But I can't see the yellow stars next to them?

twilit arch
#

the yellow star is at server selection after character creation

#

not the character select screen

silver mountain
#

Oh I see

young fjord
#

Do we know what iLvl 5.25 Relic weapons will be?

twilit arch
#

nope

young fjord
robust crow
#

does that XP boost apply to other jobs anyway?

twilit arch
#

yes

robust crow
#

so if you had the patience you could literally hit 70 on every class in the game before shadowbringers?

twilit arch
#

which is why its strongly recommended, because you are assured 90 days with the buff so it makes leveling alt jobs a lot quicker

#

yes

robust crow
#

i'm wrong on it being irrelevant then

young fjord
#

I don't do savage content, I have 485 ruby weapon, however I am wondering if a 5iLvl increese to weapon will be worth it for 1000Allegory with a relic weapon coming up, or if I should spend the allegory on 490 armor instead

rare sable
#

Tbh, if ur not doing savage, anyway you want it really?

twilit arch
#

just basing this off of eureka, its likely that the relic weapon will be around the same ilvl as ruby weapon, and if they follow eureka, may have 5 assured slots

#

so if you're going to do relic weapon anyway, may as well use allegory on the gear instead of the weapon

#

but if you're not doing savage, then it really doesn't matter in the long run because the ilvl increase doesn't really make or break anything

silver mountain
#

Twintania or Zodiark for a new player? Which one would you suggest?

slate arrow
#

whichever one is preferred

silver mountain
#

Both of them are preferred

slate arrow
#

then yes
