[hollow aurora]

im using FFXIV native and no DS4 programs an dim wired in

ive used it for weeks with no issues ever before and it jsut started now

[slate arrow]

Hm. Check if steam is running, and check what programs are running in the background.

Might want to try a driver update

[hollow aurora]

I'll look at that. Im restarting my comp now. I'll check to make sure steam isnt trying to take over

[slate arrow]

As far as I know Steam shouldn't be causing issues but

Technology is a fickle thing

[hollow aurora]

That's fair lol I had to force it off originally on taking controll of the controller since itndidnt work at all before

[slate arrow]

If you're still having issues I'd say try and using the steam overlay because valve devs are actually quite good at their job most of the time

*after the driver update

[signal garnet]

Are there discords for specific worlds?

[slate arrow]

not really

most of them merged after world visit was enabled

[obsidian patio]

There’s a few datacenter-specific ones of varying activity.

[signal garnet]

Ah rip

Do you get a first time bonus for your alts first time but you cleared before on a different job?

[oak ice]

No

[left moth]

for dungeons and the like no only first time they are cleared in any way. guildheists are per job but the xp bonus is basiclly nothing

[oak ice]

It's only your first time beating the content that gives the bonus

[worldly shuttle]

what's the server time for aether server?

[left moth]

current time in game is 12:47 pm

if you mean the physical server it's in california time

[worldly shuttle]

oh yeah pdt

thanks

[barren tundra]

Anyone here play MCH

What should I do for an opener? Do you Reassemble + Drill immediately or hold it for raid buffs?

[obsidian patio]

Prepull Reassemble into drill

This is your general use opener

[barren tundra]

Mhm

Ya I can't do that

Thanks Wynne I will try and put something together to deal with my latency

I asked because my friend got a 100k Drill in his opener because he holds his first Drill and it made me wonder if I was doing it wrong.

[faint flare]

Reassemble drill first GCD generally nets you an additional use in the fight

[barren tundra]

Makes perfect sense

[red junco]

So I'm trying to figure out the rotation for BLM here at 39 cuz i'm kinda like...super confused.

[raw solstice]

!faq blmleveling

[zinc orbit]

THM/BLM leveling rotations

[red junco]

thaaank you

[raw solstice]

yup, no problem

[red junco]

so when do I stop the Fire 1 spam?

just until I'm about to run outta mana?

[raw solstice]

yep, at your level you just keep using F1 until you don't have enough MP for another F1, then you transpose into UI to regen mana

[red junco]

...wow I am stupid, I didn't understand fire and blizzard until i had to check my activehelp...alright

[past nymph]

question regarding gearing up with shire gear, what accessory set am I supposed to be getting for the different DoW jobs

DoM is easy because it's either healer or caster DPS but for DoW i honestly don't know the difference for accessories

[faint flare]

Strength for all but Ninja....dex for ninja and ranged

You're picking the main stat for that job

[oak ice]

Get one fending and one slaying for all melee jobs except ninja

Get both to 270, since they have the same str stat

[past nymph]

well like okay

my confusion isn't regarding ironworks right now because i'm not concerned with my lower level jobs rn

but i wanna outfit my DNC and GNB before moving on in story with shire stuff

[faint flare]

Get the dex accessories for dnc

[past nymph]

i'm guessing custodian is what i'm going to want for GNB and conservator for DNC

[faint flare]

And strength accessories for gnb

[oak ice]

DNC you will use Aiming and Augmented Aiming

[faint flare]

Shire doesn't have the aiming tags on them

[oak ice]

GNB use Augmented Fending and Augmented Slaying

Oh, right

They have those weird names

[past nymph]

but just for future reference, there's another strength ring (pankratiast) that runs determination and skill spd rather than crit and tenacity

so idk for other non-tank melee jobs which one is the right call

[obsidian patio]

Do note this only applies for before stormblood, as all accessories past heavensward are role-locked

[faint flare]

Substat doesn't matter

Mainly cause ^

[past nymph]

wait really

[faint flare]

Yes

[obsidian patio]

Fending: tanks
Slaying: melee DPS but ninja
Aiming: ranged DPS including ninja
Caster+healer: self explanatory

[past nymph]

god damn okay well i guess there's no need to worry about that and i just have to push for 70 for scaevan stuff

thanks guys

[leaden ginkgo]

i know airship prototype mats are tradeable, but how much do they usually cost a piece?

[obsidian patio]

No idea, if you mean the trade-in materials

[leaden ginkgo]

Males can have this hair?

[mossy current]

Yes!

[leaden ginkgo]

Looks male but still never seen one w it

[mossy current]

Gyr Abanian Plait

[leaden ginkgo]

Ty aza^^

it sounds a bit fishy if someone is charging a piece of 100k so i'm just kinda confused now

[mossy current]

Np, you can get it in Heaven on High, a very rare drop in silver sacs

iirc

Or usually around 400k on market board

Last I checked, at least

[sturdy mason]

what is the starting name and location for the SB quest line required for the ShB relic?

[slate arrow]

it's in kugane

near the airship platform iirc

[sturdy mason]

i wanted the name of it so I could google it I'm not sure if I've done it already yet

i don't see a blue quest on map

[slate arrow]

do you have any stormblood alliance raids unlocked

namely the oborne montesary

[sturdy mason]

I'm up to Sigmascape v1.0

that's it tho

[slate arrow]

ah.

one second then

[sturdy mason]

wait those are normal raids

i have royal city of rabanastre

[slate arrow]

oh then you probably have the quests in your journal

[slate arrow]

or not

[obsidian patio]

Starting quest of SB relic is in Rhalgr’s by the scrip people

[slate arrow]

not the SB relic

they wants the alliance raid

for ShB

[obsidian patio]

Ah

[sturdy mason]

This is all I got right now

[slate arrow]

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Uninvited

look for this quest in the airship

go to the airship dock, go to the launch area, and talk to the shuttle pilot to board the prima vista

you might need to complete the royal city first

[sturdy mason]

I found this onboard. Maybe that's it?

[slate arrow]

yeah that's it

just keep continuing the questline

[leaden ginkgo]

Hair question.. what's this hair?

[mossy current]

Controlled Chaos or marriage hair?

Probably marriage

[leaden ginkgo]

^^ ty again♡

[mossy current]

np

[mortal nebula]

Where can i buy gyashi greens in uldah?

[mossy current]

Don't think so?

If they did it might end up on mogstation eventually

[storm crow]

Okay, I've got no idea what's happening here, but I just bought the game on Steam, the account is registered as a Steam account and the SE website recognises it as a Steam account. Despite that, this is what the launcher says when I try to log in:

Does anyone have any idea at all on what I can do?

[sage plaza]

you banned?

[storm crow]

Brand new account

Haven't even opened the game before

[sage plaza]

brand new as in made it awhile ago and never played, now playing, or brand new brand new?

[storm crow]

Brand new brand new

Bought the game less than an hour ago

[sage plaza]

definitely registered code with mogstation?

[storm crow]

Yup

When I go into mogstation it shows 'Standard: (Steam)'

[warped nest]

Take a screenshot

[sage plaza]

i saw one person who just needed awhile for it to register

[warped nest]

Without showing us your personal info

[faint flare]

Are you opening it via steam

Or directly

[storm crow]

Indeed

Through Steam.

i saw one person who just needed awhile for it to register
@sage plaza Know roughly how long it took?

[sage plaza]

30min

thereabouts

[storm crow]

Hmm, alright, I'll wait it out a bit then.

[sage plaza]

@storm crow also potentially, launching with trial launcher?

[storm crow]

How would I tell?

I'm just launching from Steam

[sage plaza]

as far as i could tell the free trial is listed as free trial

[grand quarry]

Hello, i have a question. I purchased a code for shadowbringers for a friend, but we cant find out where to add the code in his mogstation account. Could someone possibly help?

[slate arrow]

send a screenshot of his mogstation page

[grand quarry]

okay ^^

[coral olive]

does anyone know which boots are these?

[slate arrow]

late allagan boots of healing

PVP vendor

[coral olive]

ty!

[sage plaza]

so trial account, hopefully you got your friend shadowbringer the complete edition

[slate arrow]

you need to buy the starter edition first

[grand quarry]

nuts

[sage plaza]

confirm that you bought shadowbringer standard and not complete

[grand quarry]

i just bought the standard edition from the square store

[sage plaza]

then yeah, gotta buy starter

[slate arrow]

you're still good

[grand quarry]

what do i do?

[slate arrow]

you buy the starter edition, redeem that, and then redeem the shadowbringers code after the account is turned into a full account

[grand quarry]

is there a way to refund the game on the square enix store if the code isnt used?

[slate arrow]

if you've already revealed the code no

[grand quarry]

[dusk zenith]

whats the fastest way to grind white gatherer scrips?

[slate arrow]

collectibles

[dusk zenith]

do you need regional folklores to be able to collect them

[slate arrow]

higher tier ones yes

basic ones no

[dusk zenith]

ah okay, thanks!

would it be better to grind yellow scrips to get the regional folklores then grind white scrips?

or get the whitescrips gear first then grind yellow scrips for the regionalk folklore

[slate arrow]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[sage plaza]

buy facet gear instead of white

[dusk zenith]

XD

i dont want to meld that much

[sage plaza]

[urban pike]

Does the game give you a materia tutorial at some level? I just hit 15 and got my first blue item with green materia slots.

[sturdy mason]

In the goblet, the mansions have a 2nd story balcony. There's a door to it but it doesn't open. Is there no way to get to it?

[late fulcrum]

no

[obsidian patio]

@urban pike depends on what you mean. The game does go over spiritbonding in the story at around 20 or so?

[whole wasp]

@urban pike yes, you get a quest to unlock slotting in materia at lvl 19. the quest itself teaches you how to meld materia step by step.

[urban pike]

Sweet.

[obsidian patio]

But for actual melding and stuff that's part of a sidequest series that the story puts you by

[whole wasp]

"forging the spirit"

[urban pike]

I figured it would because it's been very hand-holdy (which is great) but I didn't wanna skip something by mistake.

[whole wasp]

as long as you do and , its very hard to miss anything. DW

[urban pike]

Awesome, thanks. 🙂

[whole wasp]

well except the "well, you want to be xxx" . those you can safely skip until you are ready

[signal garnet]

So I have some thing I'd want to use as a costume. How do I apply glamour plates? Im at the glamour dresser, but when I right click the item it seems like the change will be permanent

[whole wasp]

ok so you use the glamour prism to put the item into your dresser

you can take them out again but putting it back in costs another prism

now you go to the plates and select what item you want to put on the plate

you can only select items inside the dresser

now exit the dresser. go to your character screen. press the cards

and select apply glamour

just to add: you can only edit your plates while interacting with the dresser.
outside you can only press apply

[signal garnet]

What about dying things?

[whole wasp]

you can dye things inside the dresser

then your glamour plates will always be that color when you apply

you can also dye after applying your plate then it will override the color that your plate applied

if you press apply plate again, it will go back to the color that the plate had.

[signal garnet]

Im trying to figure out where to go to dye them though. I have the dye but I dont know what to do with it

[whole wasp]

have the done the to apply dye?

if so, right click your gear in your character screen and press dye

some gear cant be dyed. it will say so on the item.

[signal garnet]

Didnt know there was a quest for it. Where can I find it?

[whole wasp]

its in vesper bay

!faq glamour

[zinc orbit]

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, 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. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'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 glamour 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 buying them from the marketboard.

"Color Your World"

[earnest echo]

What emotes are there which are buyable in-game, aside from /bread and /lean

[whole wasp]

theres a bunch in the Grandcompany, mostly stuff like /attention /salute. theres some from eureka like /shiver and /sweat

https://ffxivcollect.com/emotes

[whole wasp]

theres a bunch in gold saucer too

[earnest echo]

Purchasable via gil then

That about the list?

[hoary storm]

They are bought with various currencies

Like MGP, Skybulders scripts

Soem can be bought from MB

Other are from quests only

[magic light]

what does the corrupted sprite drop in the diadem before I shoot one?

[whole wasp]

random

dont shoot them. shoot something else

its almost always not worth it

[raven sage]

Well specifically random shards, crystals, and clusters

[obsidian patio]

You're generally better off doing Aetherial Reduction for elemental shards/crystals/clusters, since you can go for the ones you want to use/sell

[hollow vine]

Anyone wanna get a dungeon group together for low level dungeons? (up to 30) i wanna level my Blue Mage

[obsidian patio]

Dungeons aren't good experience for Blue Mages, you're much better off killing monsters in the overworld due to the large experience bonus BLU get from them.

[dusk zenith]

when does pick clean give an extra 3 yields?

[obsidian patio]

RNG, it seems

Even on materials I greatly outstat like Silver Ore it's not 100% chance

[dusk zenith]

ohh

so for lvl 80 mats, the best way to increase yields is just blessed harvest?

[obsidian patio]

If Pick Clean gets you +2 then use that.

If +1 then Blessed Harvest, yeah

[magic light]

I use blessed harvest II for diadem gathering

[obsidian patio]

That's more because the node items there can't be HQ so you can't use Pick Clean on them

[dusk zenith]

it is possible to get consistent +2 for them?

[obsidian patio]

+2 is entirely stat dependent, +3 is the RNG

[dusk zenith]

ohhhh

[obsidian patio]

unless +1 can sometimes become +2 like how +2 can sometimes become +3, I haven't tested for that.

[dusk zenith]

what are the breakpoints for +2?

i can only hit +1 with my current gear it seems

[obsidian patio]

• +2 Pick Clean yield on Lv.80 (no star): 2291 Perception 
• Max. Yield BH2 on Lv.80 (no star): 2291 Gathering
• +2 Pick Clean yield on Lv.80 1* : 2400 Perception
• Max. Yield BH2 on Lv.80 1* : 2400 Gathering
• +2 BY2 on Lv. 80 2* : 2160 Gathering
• Max Yield on Lv. 80 2* is unknown and currently unreachable. PC is usable from 2140 Perception

From the balance.

[dusk zenith]

wow the requirements even for no stars seem pretty high

[hollow vine]

I also need to do certain dungeons to get spells

[dusk zenith]

do you need to pentameld to hit those stat points?

[obsidian patio]

You'll need melded Facet, but you don't need pentamelds at all.

Using food like Arros Negre or Mushroom Saute also helps save on melds if you want to use the professional stuff and just meld the belt/accessories.

Here's one that I made real quick, it uses all professional, a bunch of G8 materia and HQ Arros Negre, but there's only 4 total overmelds
https://ffxiv.ariyala.com/1CXGB

only has 740 GP, but you can always meld for more

note that this is only for the 2291 Gathering/perception breakpoints

2400 will want Melded Facet with probably pentamelds.

I just wanted to make myself sure: Potd is available to play starting at lvl 1 or?

[native ingot]

Hey I want to hire my retainer but don't know where to do that

Have done the quest

[whole wasp]

@terse cedar you have to do the lvl 15 quest "the house that death built" to gain access then you can start POTD with any unlocked class/job

even if those class/job are level 1

@native ingot look for a NPC "retainer vocate" in any of the 3 starting cities

they should be in the market area

[terse cedar]

yea i got my main at 80 and have the access to it as it seems. just wanted to make sure

[tepid star]

Hi there, New to game and ive had some problems,
I cant seem to get any Voices during the cutscense. currently at lvl 10. still no cutscenes. Is there a fix to this i can check out? Google isnt being really helpful

[hoary storm]

have you checked if the voices are muted in system config > sound settings?

[tepid star]

i have and everything is 30% or above. 😦

[gloomy ice]

Oh not every cutscene is voiced. Especially in ARR they're kind of sparse.

[tepid star]

not even the ones at the very beginning?

[gloomy ice]

Talking to the guy on the cart? That should be as far as I recall.

[tepid star]

he was just moving his mouth for me

i got the game yesterday. started playing today.

[gloomy ice]

But other things like meeting your local innkeeper are not

[tepid star]

Nope was just a void for me. no voices. cant find a solution either sadly

[hoary storm]

I think the only cutscene with voice in the beginning is the first one with the crystal...

After that they're quite sparse

[tepid star]

alright so i checked ytube just now and some of the cutscenes i just went throught were supposed to be voice acted. I had people making mouth movements

[gloomy ice]

Hmm. The audio settings should have Voices as an option. If that isn't muted, a small red X above the speaker icon, then it might be some other issue. Got external speakers or headphones to try?

Beyond that I'm not sure what else it could be

[tepid star]

i do play with headphones. guess i gotta go external once to try

[gloomy ice]

Coincidentally around level 10, you should have unlocked the inn. In your inn room, there's an item called the Unending Journey. That's a cutscene viewer.

You can use that to double check

[tepid star]

thank you will try it out now

[proud willow]

I'm pretty sure the initial cutscene is not voiced other than the voiceover that describes the city as you enter it

im probably being really, really stupid but I've crafed a bunch of skybuilders tea for ishgard resto but they're not being highlighted to be put in

ah nvm

first restoration phase now I see it

[oak ice]

Make sure you craft them as collectibles

[obsidian patio]

items that are only used for collectable turn-ins automatically become collectables.

You only need the Collectable action on for turning in stuff to the House of Rowena since you turn in gear/food/weapons

[tardy patio]

Will the relics released on Tuesday just be glowy versions of the 5.0 AF weapons or will it be that + an upgrade to a new model?

I cant remember how relics were released before

[obsidian patio]

If we use Stormblood relic as a base, it may be something like:
glowy AF weapon > new model > new model + glow > 2nd new model > 2nd new model + glow

[gloomy ice]

No way to know for certain but previous relic would indicate this would be how we get to dye our AF gear and the weapon may glow. We won't know if we're getting a new model for them until patch.

[tardy patio]

Ah figured. I dont want to start a red mage relic if it's gonna end at the same model until 5.3. I'll wait and see then

Anyone got any good primal hunt linkshells?

[leaden ginkgo]

What are the best tribes to invest?

[whole wasp]

you can max all of them

but the most useful for me are the crafting/gathering tribes

to level my DoH/DoL easier

so Moogles, Namazu and Qitarl

[velvet reef]

I am at heavensward and idk why but I feel like I'm missing out on a lot I'm in a FC should I still be focusing on MSQ constantly?

[whole wasp]

yes

and are the most important

because content is blocked behind and unlocks optional content

[velvet reef]

alright just making sure

[whole wasp]

for example, if you dont progress you cant even walk to ishgard

NP, Good luck!

[velvet reef]

yeah I gotcha I'm at ishgard right now

my is "Hope Springs Eternal" atm

when will I be able to unlock better armor and gear in general and I only have 185k Gil is that normal?

[whole wasp]

ahh thats the start of heavensward

thats fine. you'll get alot of gear from MSQ itself

you can also look around for , sometimes they give gear as reward

[velvet reef]

sweet

[whole wasp]

after that, you can just wear the green dungeon gear too

[velvet reef]

Hey guys coming back to the game i started out just when 2.0 was released an havent play in years i am on siren server NA should i do a world transfer to another server. looking for more a newbie type server to get my feet wet in the game

[forest laurel]

if you want to you can do that
idk if moving to a preferred server will get you the road to 70 buff tho

[proud willow]

I don't think there are any servers that are more suited or less suited for new players

[forest laurel]

I mean there's preferred servers, they're technically suited for new players bc of the xp buff

[leaden ginkgo]

ya i would need the xp buff

would i get that?

[proud willow]

Server transfer won't give you the buff, only creating a new character on that server will give it to you

[leaden ginkgo]

ah ok

You will have the armoury bonus which gives 100% bonus exp to everything except quests

[zinc orbit]

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.

[sage plaza]

and unlocked roulettes which gives daily bonus exp

[lapis crown]

How can I disable the camera slooooowwww panning back to me when im moving?

[native ingot]

I want to sell misc items on the market but seeing what they actually cost while having your sell list open simultaneously is cumbersome. How do you do it

[oak ice]

You mean the button to check prices while you're selling an item?

[native ingot]

Ye

[oak ice]

That is the easiest way outside of using an outside source like mogboard

[velvet reef]

How do I repair my armor?

[oak ice]

Talk to a mender

[whole wasp]

talk to a mender NPC. they appear on the minimap as a hammer

there is one in each of the 3 starting cities's market area

[velvet reef]

Thanks!

[vernal urchin]

I think you're able to do that at level 20 msq quests

[forest laurel]

yeah you have to be in a grand company first, which you can join in a lvl 20 MSQ

then you'll have a quest you can do called My Little Chocobo, doing that will unlock the ability to use mounts

[fresh lodge]

!faq mounts

[zinc orbit]

Mounts FAQ

Info

'When can I get my first mount?'

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

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

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

'Can I make my mount faster?'

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

[forest laurel]

wait wtf I thought they do increase the flying speed

is a flying mount faster than even rank 2 mount speed? without taking into account any obstacles of course

[coarse elbow]

Yes, flying is faster than land speed at rank 2.

[hot eagle]

mount speed is mostly usefull for arr regions so u get faster to the hunts xD

[velvet reef]

How do you even fly on mounts

I'm at heavensward so what do I have to do?

[lament wagon]

you'll get a thing to identify aether currents

[whole wasp]

!faq flying

[zinc orbit]

Flying FAQ

Info

'How can I unlock Flying?'

Flying is unlocked through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

Upon obtaining the Black Chocobo mount you are also given an Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/

'What zones can I fly in?'

Flying is only possible in the expansion zones.

[velvet reef]

O

I'll have to look at that when I get home lol

[solemn delta]

Afternoon guys. I just unlocked something after getting my black chocobo like a dungeon but I can't find it?

It popped up on the screen it was unlocked

[clever river]

Hello, does anyone know the name of this top?

[strange coral]

@solemn delta Aether Compass maybe. It's an item that helps you find aether currents to start unlocking flying.

[twilit arch]

@clever river Warwolf Corselet of Striking

[clever river]

Thanks, do you by chance know the gauntlets as well?

Oh it's sam only, damn

[hot dock]

Are scrips the best way to get gear for crafters and gatherers?

[solemn delta]

How do I find it I looked under travel but it says nothing available

The aether compasd

[strange coral]

Key items in inventory

[solemn delta]

Doesn't seem to be in inventory either

Ah

[velvet reef]

Is palidin a class worth going for?

I really like the style

[solemn delta]

Absolutely

[velvet reef]

I'm going for that next for sure s

Sure*

[solemn delta]

WAR get a giant axe

[open coral]

@velvet reef It's worth going for if you want to be a tank.

[solemn delta]

But PLD are the best tank period

[velvet reef]

Yeah I do want to be a tank

[solemn delta]

When it comes to pure mitigation and such

[velvet reef]

Dps queue takes forever too idk I palidin is any better

[solemn delta]

Yes

[velvet reef]

If*

[solemn delta]

The best

Healers are close

[velvet reef]

Nice

Well I'm definately going for that

[solemn delta]

I only don't get 3-5 minutes max unless it's 2am+

[velvet reef]

That dps was taking 10-30 mins

For SAM

[solemn delta]

Yeah I'm using SAM on main story

[velvet reef]

Same

[solemn delta]

PLD dungeon grind

It gets 360% exp bonus when it's below SAM level lol

[velvet reef]

Damn

[solemn delta]

It catches up 3-4 levels in no time at all

And I get a nice bonus of tombs

AND your duo leveling

[velvet reef]

On the beginning heavensward quests I get 48000 xp when I complete a wuest

Quest

[solemn delta]

I'm on preferred server

So I get 96k

[velvet reef]

Damnnn

I'm on primal behemoth

Idk if that's what you're taking about

[solemn delta]

If you get double exp for quest

Then your on preferred

[velvet reef]

Oh

Well I don't lol

Only 48k

[solemn delta]

I would suggest maybe not duo leveling then

[velvet reef]

What is duo leveling?

[solemn delta]

I'm simultaneously leveling 2 chars to 70

[velvet reef]

Oh I'm focusing SAM

I'm almost 71

[solemn delta]

Nice

[velvet reef]

So much XP to get one level

I think it was 12m

[solemn delta]

I am at start of HW and my SAM is 58 and PLD 54

[signal garnet]

Is there a software that lets you track how much damage you’re doing in a dungeon?

[velvet reef]

No idea

[solemn delta]

There's bound to be dps meters

Only on pc though

[proud willow]

Third party addons aren't allowed, but they do exist and they don't bother trying to detect them. The popular one is called Advanced Combat Tracker

[solemn delta]

Yeah SE doesn't care a jiffy

Unless your using stuff like movement speed hacks

[proud willow]

Just be careful about making any mention in game that you're using it, or mentioning the data that you're getting from it

[solemn delta]

Honestly unless they got stricter in years, they legit don't care about a dps meter

I wouldn't suggest talking about it

But i would happily discuss it myself knowing pretty confident I wouldn't get in bother

I did for 11 years on FFXI

[proud willow]

They do care about harassment though. Even something relatively innocuous like saying "you're only doing 8k dps, you need some tips or anything?" is technically punishable

[solemn delta]

Yeah I compare and compete with mates

So that's different

Bullying someone or something cause of dps could get you banned

But, wrong chat

Btw how do I fly

I got all aether things

[proud willow]

If you have all the aether currents, you can fly in that zone

[solemn delta]

Nvm I'm a dumbasd

[proud willow]

There should be 10 currents you find on the map, and 5 you get from quests

[solemn delta]

I thought it was the blue things 😂🤣🤣

Quests always msq?

I can look em up if not

[strange coral]

Sometimes the last MSQ for that zone, but most are blue side quests

[solemn delta]

Guides it is then

Plus guide will show map and all 10

[open coral]

A few of the MSQ will give currents, and then there are usually about 5 that also give currents.

[sage plaza]

? you have a compass no?

[solemn delta]

Bit daft though

Last msq?

[sage plaza]

then just do all the blue quests and the msq

[solemn delta]

What's the point

In being able to fly

If your done zone

[open coral]

So you can't fly until you've finished the story for that zone.

[sage plaza]

revisit, gathering, etc . . .

[open coral]

That's the point.

You have flying to make things easier when you go back for other stuff.

[solemn delta]

Yeah true chocobo is fine enough tbh

[sage plaza]

if i could fly in ARR . . .

[open coral]

Rumor has it flying in ARR may be coming soon(TM)

[whole wasp]

we have circumstantial evidence (holes in the exisitng map are getting patched up)

but no confirmation

[open coral]

That's why it's "soon"(TM)

[faint flare]

Soon(tm) in SE time...which is longer than our soons

[proper sonnet]

While they're at it, it's about time expansion areas get some festival love 💜, or even event quests

[bronze sorrel]

But if they do that then new players can't do them

So they wont

[sage plaza]

what if they bundle hw with the starter edition come 6.0?

[mossy tartan]

How do I get glamour prisms outside quests?

It says in shops, but which ones?

[forest laurel]

main source of them is grand company

200 seals for 1 prism

[mossy tartan]

That’s great, thank you!

[wintry chasm]

@solemn delta yeah someone said it before but I do want to stress you do tend to go back to old areas a lot

[snow dock]

Kinda stuck at lvl 65 with no MSQ to do, all rouletets done. How do i grind it out fastest?

[wintry chasm]

Highest level dungeon spam or something like that

If you haven't unlocked the 65 dungeon you can unlock the optional 63 dungeon in Ruby Sea

[bronze sorrel]

Also make sure to do your roulettes

Leveling, msq, trials, alliance, normal raids

Normal raids and trials don't give that much exp, but it's worth the time it takes tbh

[snow dock]

alliance=guildhests?

[bronze sorrel]

No

Alliance raids

[snow dock]

I dont have that option

[bronze sorrel]

The 24 man ones

[wintry chasm]

Unlock them!

[bronze sorrel]

I think the level 50 ones start in mor dhona?

[wintry chasm]

Yes

[snow dock]

is it enough to unlock one to do the roulette?

[bronze sorrel]

Think you gotta do 2

[wintry chasm]

The 60 one starts in...Ishgard

2 yeah

It's a roulette

[bronze sorrel]

But just follow the story

[wintry chasm]

He can't

[bronze sorrel]

Story of the alliance raid I mean

[vale field]

so i just bought the game, what should i be working towards ? currently 23 (rogue) want to play samurai

[wintry chasm]

Oh

[bronze sorrel]

Just focus on following the main storyline and getting to level 50 for now

[wintry chasm]

Keep doing your main story, do your except the obvious class unlocks or leve quests unless you want to and yeah hit level 50

[bronze sorrel]

Then once you hit level 50 you can unlock samurai

[valid idol]

is reset in 10 mins or an hour n 10

[wintry chasm]

@snow dock at the very very least do the level 50 alliance raid since it does get mentioned in main story

[ocean pivot]

1 hour and 10

[valid idol]

ty

[vale field]

how fast can i hit lv 50

this is dreadful

[wintry chasm]

Pretty quickly I guess but most things are locked behind main story so you might as well just keep doing that for the XP instead of grinding it out elsewhere

[vale field]

okay thanks c:

[cunning palm]

is there a spreadsheet for exp earned in each dungeon?

[wintry chasm]

Ugh God I hope not Ngs

Just do your highest level dungeon that isn't 50/60/70

Since those are old level cap dungeons and don't give as much XP as say, 47/59/69

[cunning palm]

nono i was just trying to see ugghhh cus in lower levels one/ two dungeon run gives you a level but leveling duty only give you about 30 40% of exp bar

[wintry chasm]

Leveling roulette?

[cunning palm]

yh daily leveling roulette

[wintry chasm]

How many times did you run it?

[bronze sorrel]

You only get the bonus once a day

[hybrid hamlet]

Can i augment the lvl 70 relic gear?

[wintry chasm]

Right, you're only meant to do leveling roulette once per day for XP, otherwise the XP reward you get from it is purely from the dungeon you get which can be low level

Yes through Eureka Florise

[boreal aurora]

any particular server you recommend to start on that has routine bonus?

also is it true that u get 15days free sub time

[wintry chasm]

Only if you hit the required level while you own the game

If you're in the free trial you won't get that free game time

[boreal aurora]

what lvl

[cunning palm]

no i mean the first leveling roulette try only give about 30~40% exp of your bar, but if im low levell like level 30ish i just have to run once the highest level dungeon and i can already levelup

[wintry chasm]

But you can always just reroll a character and level up that in an afternoon to get that game time you didn't get it before

@cunning palm /doubt

@boreal aurora IIRC it's just level 30

[cunning palm]

which part wasnt right?

[wintry chasm]

I find it hard to believe that leveling roulette is giving you so little compared to highest level dungeon if you had the bonus

[boreal aurora]

so i need to buy game

or wont get the 15days

[cunning palm]

the exp levelling roulette gives is percentage based on your current level right? i think

yh its percentage based, why do it when it gives you 30-40% but one highest level dungeon run gives you whole 100%

[twilit arch]

How much you get from leveling roulette scales based on the lvl difference between you and the dungeon you get

also highest lvl dungeon won't always give you a whole level, especially as you get higher in lvl

[cunning palm]

yes ikr thats why i said if im low level like level 20 , 30

it does give you a whole level right if im not mistaken?

[twilit arch]

fairly certain it does not

but honestly, there's no reason to not run leveling roulette

[cunning palm]

ill give it a try later, i have a class that is close to level 15

[low plank]

i am lv 48 now ( half way to 49) what would be the fastest way to get to lv 50?

[sage plaza]

spam highest level dungeon

[twilit arch]

do your leveling roulette if you haven't already, then either highest dungeon if queue times are decent, palace of the dead if they're not

[low plank]

i dont know what palace of the dead is sadly

[twilit arch]

palace of the dead is unlocked in gridania at the adventurer's guild

its basically like a rogue-like dungeon

it has its own leveling system while instead of it, and when you complete a set of 10 floors you get experience for your job outside of it

[hot eagle]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/contentsguide/deepdungeon/

[low plank]

ahh i see thank you

[solemn delta]

Do you think the 8 pound skip would be worth it for each expansion?

I just noticed it completes every side quest

Upside. I get access to everything. Downside no side quests for alts

[twilit arch]

the msq skip does not complete side quests, its just completes the main scenario quests and side quests that are relevant to it (i.e aether current side quests)

[solemn delta]

Oh. Nice.

I'm getting for each one then.

You get your chocobo ride speed etc

[twilit arch]

so you still have to go and unlock side dungeons, the raids etc

[solemn delta]

Nope

It unlocked every dungeon for me

For ARR anyway

Every trial etc

Even high end trial ultima etc all that jazz

[twilit arch]

it unlocks stuff relevant to the msq, yes

but things that are side quests that are not related to msq are not unlocked

[solemn delta]

So there's MORE dungeons lol

[twilit arch]

yes, there are several dungeons that are not unlocked via the msq

[solemn delta]

But wait, Odin isn't related to MSQ us he?

I skip every cutscene

And don't care for spoilers

You can spoiler tag if you like

[forest laurel]

odin's not related to MSQ yeah

[solemn delta]

Well it unlocked that

Let me show you

My dungeons

You can compare

Someone with every ARR dungeon.

I'm curious to that yellow symbol too

Someone compare and clear this up please

Bottom to top

I didn't have 75% of these after I finished MSQ

[twilit arch]

they must've changed it then, cos it didn't originally complete side quests

[solemn delta]

It's nice but also could be problematic for leveling alts

[cunning palm]

@twilit arch i have checked low level 20-30 ish one dungeon run does give you a whole bar, but u need the +30% exp ring

[solemn delta]

Although dungeon leveling is ideal if you have friends anyway

[twilit arch]

Either way, there is absolutely no reason to not be running leveling roulette even as a low level job

its bonus exp on top of whatever you're getting from the dungeon as well

[solemn delta]

Yeah dps queue is the pain

Need a friend lol

[twilit arch]

if you're going to be doing dungeon spam anyway, you should do leveling roulette first

[solemn delta]

Ooo reset soon

I do my roulettes all when my friend logs on

[balmy night]

hey, quick question, I just downloaded free trial.
Can choose Au Ra, Hrothgar or Viera :'(
Is there any way to change the race of a player once I get the full game?

[ocean pivot]

Yes, but not immediately.

[solemn delta]

Nice.

[ocean pivot]

You get a Fantasia Potion at the end of the base game story.

[twilit arch]

yes, once you complete the lvl 50 main scenario quest "The Ultimate Weapon" you're given a fantasia potion

[balmy night]

Can I create a second character?

[twilit arch]

which lets you re-edit your character

[whole wasp]

yes you can create a second character depending on your sub type but that character has to start from scratch

[balmy night]

how far can I get in the Trial?
so I can just ignore that progress and start over on full game

[ocean pivot]

Level 30 on everything.

[whole wasp]

trial is only level locked to 35

[solemn delta]

I seen a galka PLD and damn he looked like an absolute UNIT lol I might change 😂

[whole wasp]

infinite play time

[frosty badger]

how do you finish the new gridania fate?? tried 2 times

[solemn delta]

Can't remember exact race name

[hot eagle]

hey, quick question, I just downloaded free trial.
Can choose Au Ra, Hrothgar or Viera :'(
Is there any way to change the race of a player once I get the full game?
@balmy night no au ra needs heavenward and hrothgar/viera need shadowbringer so cant make 1 in the trial version

[twilit arch]

you won't need to restart, unless you absolutely can't stand playing the character you made

[solemn delta]

But galka from ffxi

[whole wasp]

uhh, like a hrothgar?

[balmy night]

you won't need to restart, unless you absolutely can't stand playing the character you made
@twilit arch but I want my Viera 🙃

[ocean pivot]

@frosty badger You click on join fate. Then you have to give eggs to the gridanian children that spawn.

[twilit arch]

you can just use the fantasia you get to make the character into viera

[balmy night]

ok, thankx all

[frosty badger]

wont work

[solemn delta]

Hrothgar are like big cat wolf things aren't they

[whole wasp]

@solemn delta this one?

[solemn delta]

Nah

The giants

They were in there previous MMO

[whole wasp]

this one?

[solemn delta]

just changed race name

[solemn delta]

Yeah

[whole wasp]

those are roegadyn

[dusky nest]

roegadyn

[whole wasp]

or roe for short

[solemn delta]

Nice. I might say galka from time to time but just ignore me 😂

[whole wasp]

you can start as a roe. DW

its not a DLC race

[solemn delta]

Played XI for 10 years lol

I'm female human atm

[frosty badger]

do i need to buy the eggs?

[ocean pivot]

No

You get a skill when you join the fate.

[solemn delta]

If im looking at a char 12 hours a day I like her to look nice

[ocean pivot]

You target the kids and cast that skill.

[solemn delta]

So I went with a tifa lockheart look

[frosty badger]

?

[solemn delta]

Going off topic turn. Sorry

Though *

[frosty badger]

i dont get it

[twilit arch]

you're given an action specifically for the fate when you join it

[frosty badger]

i didnt have any

[twilit arch]

its probably on the pet hotbar if you don't have it set to switch hotbar 1 to pet when you get fate/mount specific actions

[whole wasp]

it replaces hotbar 1. maybe you didnt have hotbar 1 out?

[frosty badger]

oh

[strange coral]

There's an NPC you have to talk to who will put you in a bunny outfit for the fate. You have to have it to get the action

[twilit arch]

not for the gridania fate

[ocean pivot]

That's the other fate

[strange coral]

Ah, I forgot the new stuff is up?

[twilit arch]

yes

[ocean pivot]

Yup

[strange coral]

Awesome

So used to waiting til Tuesdays

[solemn delta]

Does HW have around 200 msq?

[gritty oracle]

Is there any way to confirm exactly when does my sub run out? (To the hour if possible)

[proud willow]

HW has 94

[solemn delta]

Not bad. Just I counted 50-51 was 19 lol

[proud willow]

and post-HW has 44

[twilit arch]

not sure about to the hour, but assuming you're not on recurring sub, there should be text in the bottom right hand corner of the character select screen that tells you how many days you have left @gritty oracle

[solemn delta]

I'll skip after I finish msq

[proud willow]

that would be atrocious

post-HW is almost as good as Shadowbringers

[solemn delta]

Why?

I don't follow story mate

I know some people think that's crazy lol

[wintry chasm]

It is

but we have to accept it

[ocean pivot]

I mean, do whatever is fun for you.

[solemn delta]

Yeah I've always found the grind and char progression leveling other jobs etc fun

[proud willow]

It's definitely weird, because you're kinda... just doing the fetch quests on purpose

If you're gonna buy the skip, wouldn't it make more sense to buy it right away?

[solemn delta]

I'm doing msq for xp

For my dps

Due to queue times

[ocean pivot]

I think grinding palace is still faster than msq.

[solemn delta]

Interesting. I don't mind grinding, I'll YouTube that.

Thanks

[wintry chasm]

Yeah Hurr but to be fair everything is locked behind MSQ

so Ripe should still be doing it

[ocean pivot]

That's the point, he's gonna be buying the skip later anyway and wants to grind. 🙂

[proud willow]

Yeah

[solemn delta]

My gear would cause issues wouldn't it

If I skipped

[proud willow]

You'd get some gear from the coffer that comes from your job quest

[ocean pivot]

Hmm... you just have to somehow get through the lvl 50 class quest and maybe get a weapon.

[solemn delta]

I'm 58 and 54 on my tank all i120

[ocean pivot]

Than you can always get gear for poetics as well.

Or if you're into it, level your crafters and build your own gear.

[solemn delta]

Good call

[native ingot]

Once I reach palace of the dead floor 50 should I go higher

[ocean pivot]

You grind 51-60 over and over

[solemn delta]

Can get my FC to carry me through dungeons too

[proud willow]

There's more story up to floor 100, but 51-60 is the section to repeat if you just want XP

[solemn delta]

Im sure there's fast farm dungeons in HW like there was in ARR

[low plank]

can some1 please explain to me how the whole glamour stuff works? its like transmog right?

[wintry chasm]

ayyy

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, 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. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'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 glamour 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 buying them from the marketboard.

[low plank]

okay thanks

Glamour Dresser FAQ

Info

"What is the Glamour Dresser?"

The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.

"How do I use it?"

In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".

When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.

How do I use items in palace of dead

[bronze sorrel]

press c

then click the things

[native ingot]

Is palace faster than dungeons

[open coral]

Depends on your dungeon queue time.

If you have short dungeon queues, then no.

If you have long dungeon queues, then technically yes.

Any idea?

[wintry chasm]

God

[open coral]

Pad button

[wintry chasm]

It's one of those things where I know it and do it all the time but I don't remember when I have to think about it

Is it pad?

[open coral]

Click the Pad button like, two times, then X to open the menu.

It's Pad.

To cycle through chat > quests list > minimap

[solemn delta]

I got rid of it though

Pressed O

[open coral]

Yeah, the way to reopen the menu is to cycle to the quests list, then dpad down to the PotD option at the top of the quests list, then press X to open it

OR you can use the Pad to move the software mouse

To highlight the PotD menu over the quest list, and click it there.

Same thing, less cycling.

[olive lintel]

just started, but wanted to know what optimal data center would be for my country. Can we switch data center in the future?

[native ingot]

@olive lintel not on same account

[wintry chasm]

Well

You can

[raw solstice]

you can swap data center just fine

[wintry chasm]

you just have to pay the server transfer fee

[native ingot]

Ooo

[wintry chasm]

@olive lintel what country are you?

[solemn delta]

Got it the cursor with pad is nice for it

[open coral]

I always find the pad cursor on the PS4 controller to be a bit awkward.

[wintry chasm]

^

[open coral]

It's quicker to just click Pad twice to get to the quest list

What should I spend my poetics on?

Info

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/ahgd6j/how_to_spend_poetics/

[snow dock]

Am i right with that there is no real option to spend my poetics on that's helping me level faster if i'm lvl 65? The 60 gear is too low and i cant access to 70 gear yet

[faint flare]

Not really...shire falls off at 65 when upgraded so

[snow dock]

I guess i could buy gear in preparation for an alt job then, should i buy 50s or 60s?

[faint flare]

Buy the gear thats closer to whatever level your alt is

[snow dock]

it doesnt exist yet, so 50 i guess

[olive lintel]

Is there a change race item in the the future? (just started)

[faint flare]

Fantasias

You get a free one after completing basr ARR

After that you gotta pay up

[open coral]

Fantasia will let you change everything about your character - complete recustomization should you desire it.

[olive lintel]

thanks @faint flare

sorry another question, all exp bonus worlds are full, do I have to wait? or how can I go to those worlds?

[wintry chasm]

They'd be temp locked

based on the amount of people online at one time

[faint flare]

Wait until late at night/when people aren't online

[wintry chasm]

so just going in at a quieter time would work yeah

[olive lintel]

thanks!

what does a Legacy world mean?

[faint flare]

Its only relevant for 1.0 players

So they can reclaim their 1.0 possessions

It doesn't mean anything if you didn't play during 1.0

[snow dock]

I'm playing a WHM now, what would be a class that plays the most different from it? Mostly a bit bothered by the large GCD

[faint flare]

Monk or ninja

[leaden ginkgo]

Probably something with lots of weaving

[faint flare]

They have short GCDs due to their natural speed buffs

[snow dock]

I read somewhere that BRD is quite fast too, is that true?

[leaden ginkgo]

NIN, maybe SMN if you want to stick with casting

[faint flare]

Brd has lots of weaving

With all its procs

[leaden ginkgo]

And yeah bard has a lot to do depending on procs

[ocean pivot]

brd is kinda fast and doesn't have a fixed rotation. More of a priority list "If X is active, cast it, otherwise Y"

[open coral]

SAM is a pretty active class too, from what I hear.

DNC also

[low plank]

okay i just got sam and im completely overwhelmed are there any easy rotations that are effective?

[open coral]

I'm not sure what you think is a "large GCD" for WHM though.

[bronze sorrel]

sam isnt that hard to understand

[open coral]

Spellcasters are all basically casting something all the time.

[faint flare]

Read your tooltips, see what combos inyo what

[bronze sorrel]

just put your buffs up, refresh higanbana, midare on single target, tenka on 3+ targets

[low plank]

okay thankss im sstarting to get a grip now

[native ingot]

Who was the floor 50 boss

It seemed sad yet I didn't know who she was

[faint flare]

||Edda||

[native ingot]

Who

Come again

[faint flare]

||She was in Tam tara hard mode and you saw her group before doing Tam tara normal. They...didn't go well and more or less all died. Edda tried to revive her beloved during tam tara hard but died afterwards and then went to palace||

Tldr

[native ingot]

Now that I cleared floor 50 can I use other classes and start at floor 50 or do I have to do the whole tower

[faint flare]

You can start from floor 51

[native ingot]

@faint flareaaaaa

But the saves are still the same l

Floor 11

And floor 50

Do I delete it

[faint flare]

Delete and remake

You'll be deleting saves often

[open coral]

@native ingot Find the quest in Ul'dah to unlock Tam Tara Deepcroft (Hard) and pay attention to the whole story there.

PotD makes a lot more sense in context with that.

How long does it roughly take to take a second job from 0 to 80?

[obsidian wren]

Could do it in a couple days if you grind a lot

Or a couple weeks if you just do roulettes

[proud willow]

I don't think there's even a rough estimate because there are so many different ways to go about it

[solemn delta]

Allagan tombstone farming at 51-60 gonna get a decent amount?

Just checking out this Palace the dead now

Is there a place considered home hub

To shout for party members to blitz up to level 50

Like, community home hub main area city etc

[young fjord]

Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks is largest hub

Eulmore if max level

[solemn delta]

I'll get to 50 easy anyway won't i

Fast queues as dps

Since you go 4 dps ideally lol

I'm assuming that may not work at the highest floors.

[young fjord]

Hubs:

ARR - Mor Dhona
HW - Idyllshire
SB - Rhalgr's reach
ShB - Eulmore

Or just Limsa Lominsa Lower decks

[solemn delta]

Screened thanks

Forgetting I have an active FC lol

But there always busy

Think people getting ready for patch?

Will this patch fix IRON WILL RESET lol

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey, so whenever we get to a quest that unlocks a job. Do you start that job at the level required to unlock it or does it start all over

[solemn delta]

All different

Depends on expansion

Or base game class

1, 50, 60, 70?

[young fjord]

You start as a class, take that to level 30, then you get a job quest, once you finish your job quest you will get the ability to turn your class into a job, Class and job share level

[solemn delta]

Oh i read wrong

Thought he meant the level of new classes

[mellow lance]

which one is better neo ishgardian or deepshadow set?

[young fjord]

Most jobs start at level 30,

Samurai
Redmage
Dancer
Gunbreaker
Start at level 60

[ocean pivot]

sam starts at 50

[faint flare]

Neo ishgardian

[solemn delta]

Umm Sam 50?

[ocean pivot]

(and rdm i think also at 50?)

[young fjord]

@mellow lance Highquality Neo Ishgardian

[faint flare]

Its i480 vs i460/470

[mellow lance]

i see

[solemn delta]

Again I read wrong lol I need sleep

[mellow lance]

so its worth it to bought it 1 set right

[leaden ginkgo]

Thank youuu :))

[faint flare]

High quality yes

To.skip the gear grind

[mellow lance]

okay then

just finish msq, got any advice what to do?

[young fjord]

Unlock all optional dungeons

[solemn delta]

Do you follow story every cutscene etc? 😂

[mellow lance]

well yes lol

[solemn delta]

Then my advise is useless.

Yes

[faint flare]

NQ gear is fine while levelling

At least til 50

[solemn delta]

I upgraded every 10 levels until 50

[faint flare]

Normal quality

[solemn delta]

Grey

[ocean pivot]

Normal quality

[leaden ginkgo]

Been parsing myself with stone sky sea as dancer and was wondering if its normal for my dps to vary this much. I'm doing anywhere from 10k to 12. 5k

[faint flare]

It has lower stats than its high quality counterparts

Well yoyr dps depends on feather procs

And espirit procs

So it can fluctuate

[leaden ginkgo]

with what do i lvl my 2nd class, side quests or wat?

[faint flare]

Dungeon spam

Or palace of the dead

[ocean pivot]

[faint flare]

Roguelike type thing rhat has no party comp requirementss

Gives sizeable xp

[ocean pivot]

Palace of the Dead, a kinda rogue-like-ish dungeon

[faint flare]

Every 10 floors

[solemn delta]

Any way to finish Palace run then go back to where you were?

[little swift]

Floors 51to60 best to spam

[solemn delta]

Or do you always spawn by the npc

[leaden ginkgo]

oh sounds cool!

[faint flare]

Always spawn at npc

[little swift]

You get a checkpoint every 10 floors

Spawn at npc

[faint flare]

Cause thats where you enter

[solemn delta]

Darn this area is huge that I'm in HW lol

[leaden ginkgo]

oh ok thanks 🙂
