You'd be surprised
What would folks say is the most challenging job in the game?
I’d personally say healers are up there when trying to maximize damage and minimize healing
Since it relies a lot on everyone else not failing
But in terms of DPS, Machinist’s Hypercharge rotation can be hard to do if you don’t have great ping.
I only have ninja at 80 for the melee so I can’t talk about the others, but Ninja’s burst can be very button mashy

Ah interesting. I'm still pretty new at the game but I recall reading that SCH was pretty challenging from a healer perspective
Healing itself is very easy to do. It’s when you also maximize your damage
What's the best (fun I guess?) healer job for endgame content at the moment?
I personally love WHM with the lily payoff of Afflatus Misery. Holy spam during dungeon big pulls is also super powerful mitigation.
Scholar is easy to heal with since you have a ton of oGCD tools and cooldowns assuming the tank isn’t just taking tons of damage constantly.
I haven’t played enough AST during ShB so I can’t say too much about them, unfortunately.
AOE on sch is great, can do all your heals without stopping aoe since it's not a cast
(Superbolide/Living Dead with just a SCH up and watch them panic :p)
If I don't have recitation yeah 
There’s a quest called Leia’s legacy, it asks me to follow a thief inside the tam-tara deepcroft door, but the guard says it’s locked and I need to finish “fire in the gloom” first.
I checked on mother miourne but she didn’t have said quest ~_~
the NPC to get the quest honoring the past isnt showing up at the vigil in ishgard even though ive completed all the prereqs i know of, does anyone have an idea of what i could be missing still?
What’s your current MSQ quest?
As it Once Was from patch 3.2. I completed all of Heavensward MSQ already
Hmm, maybe it’s hiding under a normal quest? That can happen sometimes
After hatching tide phase 1 ends, can I still access the phase 1 quests and rewards?
Hard to accurately test, since pretty much all gathering gear has both gathering and perception
But I assume they don’t care about it
as far as I know, nope (for getting specific things, or quick venture/18 hour venture)
can you still get totems from doing unscynced extreme SB trials?
Yeah
what's that drk weapon that kinda looks like a baseball bat with spikes
isnt it that pvp weapon you buy with wolf marks?
I can’t remember the exact name but it’s from PVP, yeah
damn
One run and you could buy it
The daily roulette for frontline gives you at least 1k

how do the combat classes make money
doh/dol is easy enough but i cant seem to find a way dom/dow can make comparable amounts
Well, you don't.
Treasure maps
Combat makes money?
i dunno
(I mean the best you can do is usually selling mob drops)
the combat guys gotta somehow to afford things right
(otherwise, chasing the adventurer in need roulettes is okay, sometimes)
isnt that about 1k gil/min though
You didn't say how much gil
Selling materia, mob drops, and chasing adventuerer in need are your best forms of income
Shadowbringers makes the former harder to make large amounts of money due to the bicolor gems though
Adventurer in Need gives peanuts, honestly
that being said, the daily roulette rewards in general are pretty good
Can someone help
Right check here
I've set it to only 1 and 2
But somehow 8 is in my rotation?
Damn wrong pic
Sec
You need to enable the customizations
Anyone else having trouble with queues?
Pretty much all of them other than roulettes are taking really long.
It shouldn’t show in combat
It does even with that ticked mate I don't understand
Been waiting 90 minutes for Garuda Ex.
I have everything ticked properly
I use it and it never shows the unticked ones
@left cedar extreme trials have a very dead queue
Ahh really? Dang
It's gonna ruin my tanking when I get higher
I could replace all the bars with my primary bar lol 😂
Set up a party finder asking for help with it unsynced and you'll find someone clearing it for you really easily
It's always an option if I can't fix it
@oak ice Not a huge fan of going unsynced, but I guess if I can't find a regular party for it, then it's an option. Thanks : )
You could try mentioning it's unsynced, but it will take a lot longer
And people being, well, people, means you'll have a bunch of other issues if you do get in
I maybe should restart ffxiv
It's been on ALL day
Cause i know that bar is gonna cause major problems in harder encounters where I need to be on the ball
@oak ice Why? Do people just not like doing Ex trials or what?
I hit next hotbar press my main defensive cool down and end up in a menu
Hello ^^/ I'm doing my second relic and I have my Zenith weapon equipped, I'm doing the FATE's in East Shroud but I don't get any atmas, do you know what can be happening?
Pretty much, they don't like doing old content synced if there's no extra reward in it, and a lot of people don't read so even if you mention that it's synced, you're likely to get someone who leaves because it's synced
Bad RNG, most likely
Ah, gotcha. That's fair enough
Even if it is new, EX trials are usually done by party finder anyway
It just seems kinda boring to breeze through it the first time
Yeah, but he would like to do Garuda EX unsynced
The second time I do a relic the quest doesn't have to be active, right?
Furthermore, EX trials aren't in roulette, so for people to actually go into your synced ex, they need to manually queue it, which doesn't happen often
It has to be active
Ohh that would explain that.
Is Bravura a relic?
how do I retake it once I've already done my first relic then?
I had that on my WAR
It appears as completed
Start it with a different job
Bravura is a relic, yes
yeah, I did that already
Which relic series? Which job?
the crystal raiding discord I found in google is fucking dead
ARR and PLD, I already did BRD relic
Cause I'm starting to regret starting again I just realised I had 3 relics lol
But they were only 50
No, the ARR relic is one long string from I think i80 to i135, that you can then use to get the Anima weapon, which is, I think, i180 to i275. Then it stops and the Stormblood relic is completely standalone
Well that's comforting
You can also start the HW relic without doing the ARR relic
That old relics are essentially useless now
They're for glam
How much the server transference service costs?
ARR and PLD, I already did BRD relic
@leaden ginkgo do you have the i80 curtana and holy shield
yeah, i90 Zenith Curtana and Holy Shield
You don't see Up in Arms in Gerolt in North Shroud (30, 20)?
Have you interact with him to see his dialog box?
Okay, I got the atma, it was just really bad rng. It is not necessary to take the quest again, just equip the weapon and go farm atmas
Ahhh
Thanks for your time anyways ^^
!kupo soul of the Armorer
ok bot doesnt like me. but if i get those ^^^^ will my armory box expand to hold them all?
A) #kupo-bot-spam
B) !item XXXXXXXXX
Oh
There is a question
Yes
Your box can hold all the crystal soul stuff you can get
right now i have all DOW/DOM classes but 2, and theres only 4 slots left
You can only be 3 at any given time
You can use all the DoH all the time
but only 3 can be specialist at once
right, but the soul i can only get 3?
i saw it on a multiboxer and he wouldnt tell me how he got them lol
you can swap what DoH is a specialist 3 times a week
it just costs those "soul of the crafters" items

where do i get them?
Besides the freebies from the quest, From the scrip exchange vendors
Either the level 50 or 56(?) option
Btw chocobo quest, in case anyone gets lost like me, was very simple, just get from grand company guy for 200 seals
When do I get to follow my Dragoon destiny and slap around Nidhogg?
||Heavensward||
Almost...
dragoon, when u die no one will blame u
Conjurer/white mage for healing
Healing is very easy to do if you aren’t trying to max out your damage
Dragoon is also very simply rotations compared to everyone else ive tried so far
also yeah Dragoons are expected to die
if we want a non-trolly answer though (drg dying is kind of a meme) id say go Red Mage
Idk if I'm missing something, I keep getting dyes from quests but have no idea how to use em yet 🤔
they have the easiest rotation to do while keeping up with mechanics
Can confirm, just died in a party, the team just laughed and congratulated me on living the Dragoon dream
and u can heal & ress people as well
Dragoon is still pretty easy in terms of gameplay
I wouldn't recommend Red Mage, but maybe its just me finding it kinda confusing, i'm not very good at casters, dont like standing still
Do I use fire 3 instead of fire 1 for BLM?
Depends on the situation and level
!faq blmleveling
I was about to ping you for the command xD
Only BLM
wow
since their rotation changes a lot when leveling
Then again BLM changes a lot, yea
My brain is too small to remember rotations without panicking mid combo and losing track
that and me not knowing my hottkeys yet
I'm trying to get myself to stop losing track of things in the middle of a fight
For the rest of the jobs your rotation is basically “try to mimic the level 80 rotation with what you got”
Access to unique crafts that change per patch
thats crazy
They also provide a small stat boost
I'm still trying to figure out how I want my BLM hotkeys set ;~; Do you guys think i should set spells I haven't unlocked yet or just set what I currently have? I keep changing it around and its confusing me, but im not sure how I should have everything setup
I can show my hotbar but it’s controller
hmmm i wonder why sub 40 is f1 instead of f3
F3 isn’t something you spam, due to the high mana cost and casting time
You need the relevant master book for them
it says on that guide f3p, does p mean proc?
Yep
thanks alot!
when do i graduate from being a sprout?
i have a question. there is some sort of shield thing on my UI how do i get rid of it?
@grave sphinx 168hours of playtime and finishing stormblood completely
you can manually turn it off but its not recommended
aight
@eternal swift are you playing gladiator above lvl10
yeah
thats your tank stance indicator
it becomes your job gauge
you can hide it in ui
but you'll need it
you can turn it into simple mode
in don't know what is called in UI
should be labeled" oath gauge"
👆
would also recommend putting in simple mode and tossing it in a corner until you are leveled to actually need it
I don't see it
I've had this issue before unfortunately, where do I find my recruitment code to give to someone?
should be in mogstation
Click the Recruit a Friend banner in the My Account section of the mogstation
the banner that looked like an ad so my brain auto-ignored it
@eternal swift
Thanks
What's all the requirements to move to another world?
you click it and then click the gear for the element settings
then select change to simple mode
Simply world visiting or home world transfer?
Home World Transfer
I'm moving to Gilgamesh due to drama involving me and someone who shall not be named
The page for it on the mogstation should have a link to all the restrictions/requirements
Fairy automatically does embrace on the lowest %HP person
No
It can't take damage
you can assign illumination and and whispering dawn tho
Thank you
just so her aoes affect everyone
You want to position her so you can hit everyone with whispering dawn
And illumination
And be in range for aetherpact
I...guess it makes aetherpact easier
(re: transfer) if you own a house or apartment take the stuuff out but don't relinquish (will be auto refunded). retainers should be fine as long as they aren't doing anything
Yeah
@little swift @left moth thanks
(re: pets) one of the old jokes in sb about them was they could tank anything anyways short of a buster to the face (ignoring most raidwide damage)
fairy ai was paticularily bad so the shb solution was no control at all and make them both into eos
(no control as in will never spam regen the millisecond combat starts)
Hiii o/ I need help guys ;-;
holy cow did i have a frustrating time, i hope its fixed and over with i wont be sure till its done downloading but atleast i got it that far, took me over 6 hours after i bought the game to get it to register a service account and be able to start the download... ended up having to use a tablet to do it anyone else experience this lol.. majorily frustrating ill tell ya what.
So I’m getting this very frustrating error code
i2501
It’s not letting my buy nothin on mogstation
yep thats just what i got done dealing with bro.
but yours could be different but it was that error code
!faq errorcodes
Try this
mine wouldnt let me create an account to install the game, as i just bought it. but yours sounds different.
But I'm not a huge...tech man
what worked for me was using my tablet to create the account. i would get error on other pcs but the tablet worked. if you can try a phone or tablet to see if that helps hes mine
Yea...I used PayPal to buy crysta and whatnot. I can’t even use the crysta nor can I purchase anything else
I’ve used a laptop and phone
Like I’m so lost
oof im sorry i know how frustring this is trust me. i wish i could help bro
These kids and their computer problems are beyond me
Hank plz
Lol hi
best thing to do is like calisaie said research the error code and, then google what worked for other people, ultimatly thats how i fixed mine, took me 6 hrs though lol

you can try abunch of things
it can be firewall related, vpn, anti virus, anti malware, dns cache
internet settings
windows being windows
XIV being XIV
thats what makes it so much more frustrating lol, pc problems shorten your life span i swear lmfao
Oof
yeah I picked up smoking cause of it
@leaden ginkgo did you get the game on Steam?
Okay never mind
after doing some research
this looks to be a payment related issue
you may have to contact SE to resolve it
Well that’s extremely annoying
good luck ill check back in a little
Should I worry about going into Heavensward or any further expansions without doing the Coils of Bahamut? storywise that is
Not really
It gives some special dialogue but nothing actually major at all
Just very small off hand remarks
In Eureka should I be fighting higher leveled stuff to the death? I'm getting very little XP for at level stuff
With the 150% echo buff you should be able to kill things one or two levels above you
just bring along eureka potions from the vendor in the instance to keep yourself alive
It's a fairly self-contained story that you don't lose too much from not doing. You miss out on some character development on a main character and something else I'm not sure how to describe without giving the game away
Yeah stuff that's 2 levels higher than me takes me down to about 50-75% HP
I make it sound worse than it is to skip it but it is fairly skippable @grave sphinx
Great story though
And easy to do if you have a friend to unsync with
If I'm still married can I not transfer? I know the site said no active marriage quests but idk if being married still counts
If I join someone doing the same msq
If it’s completed does it count towards both of us
No Caius
So we have to run it twice
@young yarrow not sure frankly but you can always try and see if the transfer throws an error at you
If it does how do I lose the marriage status?
Do I have to do it with who I'm married with?
toss the ring
I think you may also need to talk to one of the NPCs near the church/chapel place
Well if you go into a dungeon together of course it'd complete for both of you but for quests yes, you'd both have to do the objectives personally @midnight slate
Can I do that by myself or does the person I'm married with have to be with me?
Pretty sure you can do it by yourself
You weren't kidding when you said to only pull 1 enemy at a time, I had to burn through all of my defensives as a WAR fighting 2 enemies
That will happen at low level and low gear.
Less so as you get better gear and more abilities.
Sorry for not clarifying but this is in Eureka
They're in eureka
I don't think there's better gear?
Eureka mobs have a nasty habit of being tougher than normal mobs.
Theres the kiron orbode stuff
Everything I have is capped currently
I just got Level 53 with my Samurai and im thinking about dropping Ninja, But I don't know what to pick up. I want to have Samurai as my DPS, One Tank, and one Healer. I'm thinking about Dark Knight and Dancer, But I just finished Realm Reborn and haven't started Heavensward yet. What would you guys recommend for now until I get to Heavensward?
Do the levels do much in Eureka?
Would Red Mage be good?
I have a feeling I'd get murdered if I played MCH in this
Remember eurekan potions
Red Mage is pretty fun, you basically get your full kit at 50 with the skills you learn afterwards being bits that add onto it.
...Well, besides the awkwardness of learning your AoE gauge spender at 52.
Are those potions expensive at all?
300 each, they can also come from the lockboxes
Sounds like that would add up quickly just for regular mobs
The lockboxes can have pretty nice allagan coin pieces in them, like golds and platinums
golds being 2.5k gil and platinums being 10k
Should I even be doing fates at level 4?
This doesn't look promising despite it saying level 1
They give a ton of experience, unlike normal fates outside
So I do need to get rid of the quest The Ties that Bond but I can't remove it from the Journal. How else can I do it?
hello, didnt played since few weeks before 5.1 were released, I want to play again but I wonder smth : is there any way to catch ALL blue/features quest I didnt made ?
like every content unlocking quests + all jobs quests + raids quests + new dungeons etc.
I know we got the list of available quests on each area, but what if I'm not in the concerned area, how can I know if there's a blue quest I can do ?
The game takes you everywhere pretty much
Just be vigilant
The more important basic gameplay ones like your mount show up on your main story tracker
so there's no way to just look at a list of what quests are missing ?
Not in-game
The recommended menu shows a bunch of quests for the zone you're in, but it can be a bit weird in what it shows.
I'm sure you can find a list online though if you really must
The recommended menu shows a bunch of quests for the zone you're in, but it can be a bit weird in what it shows.
@obsidian patio I know that but we must be in that specific zone to see what quests are available
I'm sure you can find a list online though if you really must
@wintry chasm even with that, it would be hard to find on an external list everything I haven't done
Cross it off as you go xD
for example if I didnt have one class : how can I know where the quest is ?
excluding google
in-game I mean
It'd be at that class's guild
not for samurai, dancer, etc.
The MSQ tracker also shows important sidequests to do.
which includes your current class's quests
1st quests of those jobs arent at any guild
Only DRK is kinda by itself
Ehhh yeah okay
I know that lol but as I said, I didnt played since 5.00 so I must find every raid, dungeon, and side content unlocking quest
DRK is a bit weird

and the only way is : go on every zone and check if theres a blue quest
for msq I know its in the top of the screen, same for next job quest
To be fair that takes two seconds and most start in hubs you go to all the time
ofc i'll pass near raid and dungeon quests
So uh I might be an idiot, but I can't seem to be able to resub using anything else but Paysafecard & Steam
but I'm sure i'll pass on something lol
it is being weird for the last few days
I use to sub using Crystas, and I even managed to buy some RN but I'm not finding where lmao
and thats scares me to re play, like "wow im sure I forgot smth, how to know ?"
Optional - Add Crysta
So uh I might be an idiot, but I can't seem to be able to resub using anything else but Paysafecard & Steam
@vocal spoke if you have a steam licence, thats why, you must pay through steam
Why would I need to use steam, I always paid without using Steam
You don't have to pay through Steam
what was last time you paid without steam ?
you are low
wdym
Sub is 1099 I'm paying for a basic sub
when you resume your sub
100 crystas = 1€
there should be an option to by crysta
I can translate to english ofc
I mean, I usually can just sub, but rn idk why I'm not finding where I can resub using another method.
do you get additional payment option after clicking Pay with Steam?

@knotty bronze Did you buy the base game off of steam before?
Try port-monnaine Steam, don't worry it won't charge until you Confirm
Can you go to your mogstation "my account" page and take a screenshot of this?
Oh ok not me
@leaden ginkgo did you get your issue solved?
it should then lead you to a page where you get to pick how to pay
I mean you
Nope
asks me to pay using my steam wallet
card, game time, steam wallet, etc
😦 sorry bud
it won't take from your steam
I already spent 10.99€
we are trying to get to the page where you Pick payment method for your subscription
See that count
those are my crystas
which I have enough
to sub
I already have theml
I just have to spend them
@knotty bronze I'd say to contact steam support then if it says the starter edition code claims to have been used.
the expansion code says it's invalid due to you needing to register the base game first
It takes me to the steam wallet, which asks me to spend money from steam
Last time I checked it's 12.99 a month for sub
because your account is steam based
Basic sub is 10.99
10.99 is only for legacy players
My account hasb een steam based
For over 5 ytears
and I managed
to pay my subs
Using crystas
despite my account being steam
hold up
clear your webbrowser cache
and don't go to the webpage via the steam link
open it in a new browser window
this might be a case of steam cookies taking over
I'll try that thanks
is it reportable if someone blocks the buy-sign in front of a house?
no
really, how am i supposed to click on it
Zoom in
You can also change your target filters to ignore other players
they just shot explosions the entire time
Turn off effects
how do i do that? that i only target the sign
you can set up soft target buttons in the settings
Character config > can't remember the main category > target
whenever I need to target something obscured I just turn that on and use my numpad to target what I need
this is obviously a testament to why controller is superior
use both
So is spirits within not any good?
you use it spirits within on cooldown
The potency looks good
Its free damage
and free MP later
You use it everytime its off cooldown
!action Spirits Within
@slate arrow Didn't work

@tender estuary this guy trying to buy sub with crysta but site forcing them to use steam to pay
i still think that you need to go deep into the refresh subscription page to see the options to pick a different payment method
this including temporarily picking Steam wallet (recurring) or Steam wallet (one time)
I honestly have no experience using crysta I always just paid with my credit card
Ok ok
I figured it out so it definitely comes from Chrome
No idea why I'm still using it
I booted edge and it worked so major bruh moment
I should my guy I should
Thanks for your help
glad it is solved, sorry for driving you into so many dead end XD
It's ok lad you did your best 
can someone explain to me how the tethers work in o12s?
Which
if no one else answer that.... you can try in #endgame-lounge
ok
how do i level up my weaver class quickly?
Leves
can i turn off other characters?
fastest: buy leve-kit
And ishgard restoration
I feel like it would be more efficient to just buy the Eureka armor rather than attempt to do it
players*
Remember daily gc turn ins
is it worth buying a kit for weaver
you can't
it is never worth buying kit
unless you are leveling it for your other characters (imo)
craft one of each thing in your craft log until level 15
then do all low level recipe once to get first time bonus
you get bonus experience for crafting something the first time
im doing the quest atm front the rose guy but can't continue till I'm lvl 5
Do random recipes
Newly crafted recipes give more EXP
Should be level 5 in 2 crafts
first time completion give bonus exp
dump question but how do I open my recipes
look at your hotbar
dumb*
Should be default on the hotbar
there should be red action
only thing I have is a needle
if you don't find it, open Action & Trait - General
main commands
when I press that needle it says only available when crafting
main commands > book icon > crafting log
Odd, I remember unlocking my crafters with the crafting log on the bar. Maybe it was just a controller thing.
ah thank you
same here
got the crafting log
Just realised it's probably a very bad idea to go do level 35 PLD quests cause my gear is level 24-25 story stuff....
Gonna get melted lol
Yeah npc stuff is cheap
On chocobo rating, how is that calulated? Is it based on how high you place in races? Or calculated based on stats + level? Or what?
I've rarely done chocobo racing, but from what I can tell it's a mix of star-rating and actual number stats
Only the taoist stuff is crafted
Tamamo isn't crafted and comes from a token exchange involving a fate chain in Yanxia.
Taoist Shirt and Slops are level 70 recipes.
Alexandrian gloves are from the third tier of alexander savage.
Boots are mogstation
what about the tamamo headband
you finish a special fate in Stormblood area
then use the reward to trade for Tamamo
So say I hatch 2 identical chocobo chicks in stats, in theory when they hit like... level 40 exactly, they -should- have the same rating?
Even if say.. when racing one, I didn't do as well as the other chocobo.
@uneven glade I think so? not sure if there's RNG in leveling up
There's RNG in leveling up?
Again, not sure. Been forever since I've done chocobo racing.
:S Thank you for your help, though.
for someone to craft the magicked bed do i need to buy other materials besides the lumber?
pretty sure the answer is yes
cloudsbreath can be expensive sometimes
you need Cloudsbreath and Undyed Veleteen
as for the undyed velveteen, that can be bought from the sylph vendor
yeah, Cloudsbreath only comes from people doing Gardening
so either you do it yourself, or you check MB for it
Ul'Dah?
Nah it had better ones could choose level range and stuff
Loads of stalls
And a market board
That description fits both Limsa and Ul'Dah
Might be limsa I was at
And Kugane, but I assume you're not there yet
When you buy account wide mounts do they not show up in the mail?
I haven't gotten anything 😦
Limsa is the one overlooking the sea
Uldah is the one inside a desert building
@solemn delta
Gridania is inside a forest
They all must have the same vendors then
I'm not gonna waste gil though just gonna crack on with msq
yeah
Yeah, starter cities have the same vendors
Yeah you get rewards just on preferred your mega over leveled so only have a few pieces to match your enemies
That 35 quest I nearly died
@sturdy mason account wide items take longer to mail
I usually have to wait 30 minutes or more
Haha when you receive 3 player recommendations 👌
lol
Anyone else get so pissed they reset your iron will upon entering an instance....
I forget EVERY time
And look like a total noob at the start lol
Is there any way to set it so it doesn't reset?

Sadly no
There is not. Every time your level is synced down, it gets removed and you have to reapply it manually
But funny enough that in the last expansion they "fixed" tank stance being removed.on level sync
Guess they forgot to put that back in

It's a big deal on straight up boss fights if you forget
Your healer can get 1 slapped
you just get used to it
Obviously in raids if you know your tank is good but forgetful everyone reminds him / her "IRON WILL" lol
You eventually get into the habit of checking it
Yeah I have my gauge up top atm
Had it on left
But party got in way
Might put middle but my friend showed me a really nice few videos of a guy making controller play nearly as good as pc
With amazing HUD and macros and stuff
some emotes make your character say stuff, the exact lines/noises are voice-specific.
Yippee sounds like lalafell joy
one of the voice choices, yeah
war ptsd flashback
IIRC, these are the main emotes with voices
Angry
Cheer
Chuckle
Deny (maybe)
Disappointed
Fume
Furious
Happy
Huh
Laugh
Surprised
Upset (maybe)
Yes
Might be one or two that I'm forgetting
@summer shuttle
For the most part tanks can do it on their own for trials/raids, but for random dungeon trash there's no real harm in using it when you can so they take a bit less damage
My issue was malboro
I couldn't move to get mini adds
Cause it could bad breath everyone
But i guess I can move and keep a stun for bad breath
Malboro solo I can just move away but I prefer to stun
Thanks @obsidian patio
nope
do you just have to be inside the chapel to start the wedding
in the waiting room, yes
where's the waiting room
talk to the NPC right outside the chapel
and you'll be escorted to the waiting room if it's time
I thought it gets postponed if you're not there within 20 mins of starting time?
Can't say, All the weddings I've gone to were on time. :\
so I'm on the Zodiac part of the relic weapon questline and it says this
joke
It looks scary. Do I continue?
It's a joke reference to how bad the melding step was, and probably the very low drop rate of the ATMA when that originally came out
you'll always succeed

Zeta is basically a much shorter light grind
You only need 2 Tam-Taras per rune (12 runes total), or just one tam-tara per rune if it's on bonus.
Hmm why does Zeta WHM looks worse than Nexus
RIP
can't you do 1 tam-tara + 1 ifrit?
oh it's 24 not 36
I think one of each works, can't remember what their combined total was.
select the item with x and then you can use your camera to adjust where it lands
or use R1+left stick(?)
in the key items inventory
Got it was on end cheers
Think I'm gonna have to buy some weapons and armor
I'll be 40 ish and I'm not getting any upgrades
Whats your current gear like?
You can manage in ARR with lower gear for a bit
Ah
At least level 30-35 gear if you want but level 40 gear would be better
Mobs are bursting me and I'm a PLD
Not right now cause I'm on story
But when I get to 40 story
You can, but it may be more expensive than a vendor at camp Dragonhead or the observatory
Level 28 quest atm
Armor vendors in the three major cities also sell almost every piece of gear at nearly every level between 1-50
Yea
Accessories would be the hard part
Ripe, may I know which server you're on?
Thanks for thought bro
but you can always do the sprout training thing for accessories
friendship circlet for head gear
Oh. that's defo sufficient
tbh, i never purchase any gear
It's mainly dungeon drops
Yeah but in my circumstance I might have to
Regularly no absolutely not
But on preferred
Might have to splash out a few k on some extra dps and defense
Oh, friends, during hypercharge, I gotta keep using Gauss rounds as well, right? But am I right that it clips/delays the next Heat Blast?
what ya playing as, Ripe?
Pld
ah. ok, then that's needed
So that's in my favour
But dps low
So need high def
I might get a few nice pieces from 28-40 story tbh
That's a lot of quests
Lol I'm 38
That is making me a wet noodle 😂
Covers body and head
There is a level 35 version of that same piece but since you're so close to 40, couldn't hurt to buy that ahead of time as well
Yeah deffo I'm in gridania now
try your luck with MB to HOPEFULLY find a cheap HQ
Where is Market in grid?
Old gridana
To the east in a building
Aethernet to Leatherworkers guild and east :)
Finding a FC as a new player is rough especially on Adamantoise
That's the long hallway of market's I was taking about earlier
I found a good fc on twin nice and easy
Yeah I need to buy 38
I do not belive finding a FC is difficult.
I belive finding a FC worth putting time into and getting something in return is difficult
At first. Once you hit the 2.0-2.55 stretch, your ilvl is going to rapidly increase.
Class/job level is still important, yes, but ilvl will become even more so as you progress.
Armor guy is labeled as a tailor I believe
Yeah got him
Aye if I buy 40 stuff the body alone is - 1 armor lol
And that's obviously without head
Have a question - with min ilvl for Holminster being i370
What are your ideal transitions for alt classes going from level 68 gear to level 70-71 fair?
Scaevan would work but it'll burn poetics relatively quickly
the game hands out poetics like candy
even a partial set of scaevan is more than enough
Ah kay - so mostly just run things for poetics x however many classes you're sneaking past the borderline. Not what I was hoping since I'll need 8-9k to do it given I have several classes straddling the line, but that's the best I saw too
Thanks for the help
if you're doing more daily roulettes than just Leveling you'll get enough poetics for a full set of gear in like two days

A full set of unupgraded scaevan is only around 2400 poetics
The biggest bang for your buck is the weapon for 500
Main Story Roulette gives 300 poetics
Would anyone happen to know if there's a cyberpunk/high tech looking set of weapons? The Late Allagan set looks sick and I'd like to get a weapon that goes with it
the Scaevan and Ironworks sets are both pretty tech-y
Ah Deepgold gear is all level 70 and almost as high ilvl as Scaevan
Given I'm sitting on 14 mil I'll just spring for the deepgold
Scaevan has significantly better stats despite the relatively small difference in ilv
Augmented Scaevan is literally good enough through the level 79 dungeon
Also, Deepgold you need to get it high quality
@dusk merlin Scaevan weapons are pretty high-tech, same with Ironworks from Mor Dhona and maybe Lost Allagan from SB hunt vendors
Yeah I ran mostly Augmented Scavean through ShB
otherwise you're taking a ~50 item level penalty
because item level only represents potential maximum stats
SB hunt vendors, didn't know that was a thing
They're right by the hunt board in Rhalgr's Reach and in Kugane west of the aetheryte
Are there any Linux players here?
Hey I have a problem trying to get my boyfriend to register for the game, can anyone give me any tips on how i can get him to properly register for the game? because we tried to go to one of the websites and it gave us an error
and when we tried to log in, it said wrong password/user, so we tried to ask to fix the password but it only gave us a link to some page that requires us to log in
So it's just frustrating to try and properly register his account
I got to the point where I can clear Sunken Temple of Qarn in 3 minutes flat so that might be a better alternative than Tam-Tara which is 3:30-4:00 minutes
@leaden ginkgo have they tried this? https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/pr/start_ffxiv/win/registering/
What does it show for the account when they log onto the mogstation?
are you using the trial or full launcher
I keep getting error 90002 during any kind of raids any help?
I’ve tried resetting my router
what are the best weapons I can get at 60 for poetics and how do I get them?
@eager yew might be an ISP issue. 90002 is a general client-side connection error
What is the quest line after the Zeta one?
It said the saga was ended
now I need to get 50 alexandrite?
How do I fix my isp?
HW Anima relics. It isn't required to continue if you have the zeta if you don't want to.
As for internet issues I'm not entirely sure 😅
so you can't do the 3.0 relic unless you finish 2.0 first?
nope
wow
They're separate, but you can use the zeta to skip the first anima step
which frankly, isn't really worth it, but it lets you get the Zodiac replicas without having to hold onto the zeta.
Wynne which WHM staff is typically considered the best looking?
between all the relics
I love the Anima Lux and Eureka Hydatos ones
This Alexander raid questline is so long... Once i complete all the Normal Mode and unlock Savage, can i run Savage unsynced immediately?
lemme find a frontal picture of it
you dye the crystal for this one, which can make it have a great glow
Anima series is very good looking and easy to farm for
It just needs a literal crapload of poetics
Easy compared to what?
easy compared to Zodiac and Eureka
Zodiac took a piece of my soul that I'll never get back
It's probably the easiest of the three.
Eureka is easy-ish once you have all the leveling done.
First Anima is the hardest because you need to unlock the quests
so only the first eureka weapon is really hard
I like the Zeta since it has a calmer glow
compared to the lens flare of Novus/Nexus
Don't you hate that it looks like a limb ripped off a bush?
I mean, half of the Conjurer weapons look like tree branches since they're in tune with nature.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
It's just part of their look.
HMM I'll have to try them both for a while and see which one I like more
I appreciate your help along the way it was great
Sounds like Anima should be really easy since I can skip the first step
which you said is unlocking quests
So I bought the fatter cat like 3-4 hours ago and I still don't have mail
is that normal?
I know you said 30 minutes...
Is there a way to keep the glamour of my Anima weapon if/when I trade it in for whatever the new relic is?
Only Zodiac is like that
for Anima you can start buying replicas about halfway through
once you unlock the vendor node you can get any step you've already completed
(aka like 3-4 steps into your first one)

Been practicing bard and I've been gearing it up slowly using leftover drops from normal raids, so I've been wondering what kinda dps should I be doing at i465?
oh right on, thanks
Where does "Kettle to the Mettle" tie into the Anima Weapons questline?
I don't see the quest mentioned in there
Seems to be an optional one?
oh kettle was introduced in HW as a joke
Wynne said it lets me skip some of the first steps
eh?
wtf?
no it doesn't as far as I know
I'm confused
It comes after the Zeta step it seems
he's talking about turning in your zeta weapon for the FATE crystals
(which you shouldn't)
You could still get replicas though, right?
did I misunderstand?
They're separate, but you can use the zeta to skip the first anima step
the kettle is entirely unrelated
it shows up as a + quest though so I figure that's important
¯_(ツ)_/¯
well I'll ignore it for now then
So should I turn in my Zeta to skip the first Anima step?
no
When will I need my Zeta again?
Glamor
Authentic? It's your Zeta I guess
In the topic of ARR relics, Ifrit Normal is fastest, right?
For the Novus light farm
tam tara deepcroft, ifrit if you just wanna braindead shoot it dead and re-instance in a minute
New to party finder, what is my best bet to find a group to do Alexander Savage unsynced? Is there a better Discord alternative
party finder
I did Sunken Temple of Qarn in 3 minutes flat. Tam tara took me 4 mins about
that's what gets recommended all the time yeah
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Industrial can you explain why you recommend not exchanging it?
nope
once you pay you can't go back to free2play
did you press cancel service account
if you did that account went kaput
you need a new key
I'm sorry but I'm still not seeing why people are so hung up on hanging onto the original Zeta. I get that it isn't worth it and doesn't save you much time. But why?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
you say you didn't but everything points to otherwise
you'll have to contact customer support
Defense 254-424 I would say that was worth 40k gil lol
If you want to, Blcwo
As a DPS you could do other things like Fates or look into beast tribes
While queuing
Dreams of ice is ARR content right?
1-40 today think it's time for a break lol thanks for help
Ah Shiva
I don't think it matters, honestly. Do whatever you are most confident with and explore at your own pace
Although ARR content will be more painful later on imo haha
You'll have more skills post-ARR
So ready up that fell cleave
I rushed through SB and ShB as DNC on release week
To be honest, that topic is up for debate on the "slow or unwilling" part
If you don't want to die or make your healer mad, then yes. Let the tank do their job.
Yea
In general for a smoother run
ARR dungeons have quite a bit to explore sometimes
Oh
If they're pushing buttons with tank stance turned on, dps should never be able to take aggro from a tank.
