The riding maps in 3.0 maps: Do those affect flying and ground speed? Or only one of those?
So no real purpose in getting them then, seems like a waste of seals
alright I've talked to the tavernkeep one last time after the lv 10 quest
now how do I get to Ul'dah
Do msq until it takes you there
npc: "Hey, you remember me, right?"
me, who hasn't seen them in 5 years: 
Lv15 msq quest XXX envoy is when you're taken to other cities
gotcha
payment doesn't seem to go through, should I refresh page and try again, or should I wait longer?
Remember to attune when you go there
been waiting for 10 minutes
What's a good use for Centurio Seals? Just the minions and stuff?
can buy the aetheryte tickets if you feel like being cheap or use them to buy the gear to turn in for seals

is flying faster than diving?
flying faster than swimming underwater?
I think theyre the same
yeah, swimming underwater on mount felt pretty fast too
same speed yup
swiming uses flying speed
SB beast trbies scale with level, is that true all the way to 80?
though tho exp fall off isn't that bad ,it still gives decent ish xp if you're over its lvl range
@tender estuary
seems to be a dx11 error
how often does it happen
everytime you start up the game?
its just a generic graphics error, most of the time its related to drivers or graphic dependencies
Hi, I just started my beast tribe quests in ShB
Is it only thrice a day?
this is the first ever beast tribe i ever did
so yea...
3 quests per day yes
3 per tribe per day yup
You'll get extra ones when you rank up but only for that day
except ARR beast tribes, they got weirder rules
So.. where's the shop for pixie tribe?
Next to the quest giver
Or i still need to level it?
Oh, didn't notice her sorry. Thanks!
Ohhh, i need to level it up till i get some good items to buy... so what's the max rep?
sorry i've been missing things in-game texts so sorry
max rep is rank 7 bloodsworn for now
how can i get the 200currency fast to get the chocobo license
rank 6 however gives you the max rewards (mount etc)
rank 8 requires having all beast tribes within the expansion to be rank 7 then you do the special quest that appears
and all the rank 7 tribe automatically becomes 8
So meaning i need to rank all my beast tribes to 7 before i can get the quest to level 8?
yup
its not even released yet for ShB
since theres one more beast tribe i think
you can get rank 8 in HW and SB for example
Ok since you are actively answering my question, id ask for another topic, about my grand company rank
I'm currently second leuitenant and been actively using my squadron
How do i raise my rank? the officer isn't giving me quests
😦
you gotta complete a special squadron mission at level 30 i think
after you clear that mission, you get promoted automatically iirc
i gotta check
sorry lvl 40
gotta clear this mission with your squadron
Whats the benefit of getting a higher GC rank? Not my squadron, but my personal rank
@snow dock higher seal cap and more stuff avaliable from the GC quartermaster
the easy way is to use dx9
the not so easy way is to ask hank in #technology-discussion
also try google "ffxiv dx11"
@fallen sigil
okk, try legacy controls
Wait
I havent played since like 3.0 is there any way to quickly catch up with the changes? I play scholar. I noticed that I had to rebind all my skills and some were removed and my fairy has no healthbar anymore.
ohshit, i might have counted one lower
@marsh perch try the job guide, let me link it for you
thanks 
@whole wasp , I've been sending my squadron to the wrong stuff lol. Thank you for searching it foe me. I think all my confusions is cleared for tonight. Thank youuuuu
NP, that mission btw needs all 3 stats to be green
and the rankings for beast tribe, i think i counted one lower, so its 8 max for taht tribe, 9 max for all 8
@leaden ginkgo
where can i find Skybuilders' Hemp except from the market board?
ugh cus im trying to levelup
do phase 2 recipes
Do the phase 2 stiff
they give more xp/scrips
oh alright thanks,

So a quick question from someone just returning to the game. When you have lower level classes on a character who has a higher level class, they get an exp bonus right?
'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.
alright, I thought as much, but wanted to be sure
Actually, going off of that question, is the exp bonus just from killing enemies, or is it any exp gain in general? For example, does the bonus apply to dungeon completion exp?
Killing xp
Best use is still in dungeons though—killing speed and reward amounts for kills have a higher base
Oh, I still planned on doing dungeons, it was either that or palace of the dead
Hey everyone, I took a forced yearly break from the game and wanted to come back to it. Sadly I don't remember my square enix account but I do have the game bought on steam. Is there a way for me to get my account back with my codes I have or is it a lost cause?
shouldn't there be a 'forgot ID or password' option?
when searching for B Ranks in Heavensward, does my height while flying affect my detection of the mob?
There is but the email I have connected to my steam account isn't the same as the one I have on my square enix account it seems, the other one I use doesn't seem to appear in the database at all
Actually @idle relic can you see someone's account and their characters on it? Because if so I would have a favour to ask that would help me greatly when it comes to my search
you can search for a character, but I don't know about if you can search for an account. Mind you, I'm not an expert on this
Gotchu
I'm level 70 mining, can I do the collection for foundation and get the good stuff?
what job does rogue turn into again
ninja
im trying to make a photo studio in my apartment, what can i use to make the floor a matt texture-less colour?
so i choose lancer and im in gardina rn..is it possible to get rogue somehow rn?
Not till you get far enough in main story to be taken to Limsa
Which is a level 15 main story quest
oh rip gotcha u
What if i start in limsa as a maruader?
is there a certain lvl i have to reach to access rogue
yeah you have to do your level 10 class quest of your starting class before you can unlock other classes
I'm level 70 mining, can I do the collection for foundation and get the good stuff?
Anyone ever had an issue where they try to login after adding game time, and the game loads ARR (when you've already got an 80 ShB character) and says no game time or unregistered product?
where can i find how each weapons/armors look for each grand company before i decide which to join?
the only GC gear that looks good is the maelstorm's
can u complete this q without a crafter? https://i.imgur.com/WEkGSer.png
No since you're upgrading a crafter/gatherer tool using the one they give you
has to be either crafter or gatherer
it depends on what you opened the prototype coffer as
but its not completable as a combat job, since that quest is specifically for the crafting/gathering relics
if i open it as BoT
you'll get a btn main hand
For BTN, the way to upgrade it is to collect a certain amount in HQ of a specific item. The guy who does the upgrading will tell you which item it is in the exchange window.
What's the fastest way to farm light after the Novus step? I've seen others do tam Tara or Ifrit normal
yup, tam tara or ifrit normal
ifrit is better than tam tara if you have good loading times
how do you increaes the collectability for weaver items?
By raising the quality
for crafting, increasing collectability is basically the same as increasing quality
as a new player ..should i join the xp worlds or not?
If you want to level faster
What would be an incentive to chose the other non xp worlds?
is it signifiicantly slower?
its pretty strongly recommended to choose a preferred world
the xp boost is quite strong, and it'll make leveling alt jobs quite a bit faster
but if you don't have the road to 70 its not that much slower
You can manage without it
hm ok
Like I did
Also if i go the rogue route - is there a race that best fits it?
Or it doesnt matter at all
doesn't really matter too much
racial stats are pretty insignificant
would you guys know if the rogue gear looks good on highlander?
Rogue turns into Ninja later on, which looks good
Normal "scouting" gear is great too
On Highlander, can't say, am smol au ra
I'm trying to complete the job quest level 80 for gunbreaker. I completed the previous ones and I'm on the right location but Radovan doesnt show the quest icon on top of his head
You guys know why?
what do you mean?
The Tank Role Quests in the crystarium
Level 80 one is a small sidequest that appears after you beat ShB and The role quests iirc
Damn my chocobo would have been rank 10 ages ago with full heals lol

Is there an updated DRK BIS guide that includes the new memoria ex gear?
!faq drkbis doesn't include that AFAIK
The level 80 job quests just look like standard sidequests.
cos the 480 gear isn't BiS
thats why its not updated
also doesn't help that ariyala hasn't be updated for 5.25
is there a housing item like the white screens that i can use on this gap in my floor, i dont wanna have to move them all inwards to fill it bc then i wont have as big of a studio
Does Paladin deal less damage than Warrior?
im about to sstart the dragonsong war quests are they good? or are they like the ARR quests?
okay nic
@frosty crater I think WAR does less damage than PLD these days actually. But either way it's not that much of a difference. Like single digit percentage.
Me and a couple friends were thinking of starting FF14. From what I've read it seems like a largely single-player experience until the endgame and that we won't be able to play together immediately unless we use the MSQ skip item. Is this true?
I see that if you pre-order on Steam you get an item earring item that gives you bonus XP. Is that item exclusive to Steam? Or can you get that via the client or mogstation somehow?
not entirely, the game has some dungeons and trials that you can run together while getting through the msq
and there are some parts of MSQ where there are solo instances you have to do yourself
the pre-order bonus is no longer availavble @opal lichen
how do i learn to fly in heavensward?
but yeah you can do all the MSQ together except those solo instances
overworld question, dungeons, trials
etc
Assuming we exclusively play together and only progress the MSQ together about how much of the game will we have to do alone?
pretty much only the solo duty instances require you to be alone
^
which there aren't that many of
which are not that often tbh
like probably <1%
It's not like large swathes of sotry are solo instances Gortex
It's literally like, a fight
and then back to overworld
If one of us decides to get smart and do more of the MSQ does that preclude them from coming along for the ride?
🤔
how do i learn to fly in heavensward?
@lime sphinx its part of the msq where they give you a compass to find aether currents, you need to collect them all on a single map to unlock flying there
Also be aware that your class choices will likely mean you'll be starting in different zones. They all converge just before the first dungeon however
okok
I mean....you can't do dungeons you haven't unlocked yourself @lyric bane
and some areas you can't go to unless you get far enough in main story
but that's mostly an expansion thing
the only real issue i would see is if they somehow are above 10 levels above you
since grouping would nix your exp
If they do some of the main quest while the other 2 are say working and we log on and we're like "bro, you played without us wtf" then can they still go do our quests with us?
Well yeah
They can follow you around and kill things with you
but they wouldn't be doing much I must admit
There is a lot of talking in this game
Fair enough. One of us is a little enthusiastic sometimes so I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't cause serious issues.
Thanks for the information guys.
Just beat them if they get ahead 
We were stoked to paly together but I saw something that made it seem like we'd have to play alone most of the game and then asked some people I knew were playing in other channels and they gave me bad/incomplete information.
No?
yeah I was going to say 99% of dungeons are 1 tank only
dark knight is available from hw onwards ;o;
Oh, that's a ways off. I'll have to find out what to do until then
I started a MRD in the trial.
The other expansion jobs just have a level requirement you need to meet
yeah its a solid job to go with tbh, so you can level up/play that job until you get to HW and then unlock dark knight
I normally like to play spellcasters but Dark Knight's aesthetic does it for me.
Spellcasting tank exists as Paladin, but it's limited
I'm going to do Fashion Fantasy.
Welcome to the true game
Are the gear designs tied to the gear or are they cosmetic?
Transmog exists
Through glamor prisms
The game will explain more at around level 15-ish in MSQ
Well
A blue ! Quest
why if I where head it is not shown visually in my charecter?
What race are you
@wintry chasm In MMORPGs it used to be that if you wanted to look a certain way that you had to use specific equipment.
the new tiger race 😄
!faq glamour
Nowadays you can make your gear look like anything.
'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.
Each job have artifact gear that that you get at lv 50/60/70/80, some of them dont have the lv 50 tho
@lyric bane
Oof, lots of helms don't show up on those
Thanks.
the new tiger race 😄
@jovial fjord
sadly thats a limited race in terms of headgear
thanks 🙂
Put on the bunny suit and everything is fine
they have very little head gears that they can "display" but they can still wear it normally
@jovial fjord Viera and Hrothgar don't get a lot of helmet options but you can double check by going to your character profile and under the image of your character that is a little hat button, you toggle that and check. It's an auto hide headgear button
So to play with my friends we'll either have to wait til we get to level 15 or pick specific starting classes. Is that right?
shoot that reminds me i need to do my lvl 50 drk quest, thanks chat
I guess @lyric bane
Have fun
I love fray
@wintry chasm What do you mean?
I meant that last bit to Taketoshi
yeah i think so--the tease at the end of the last one made me exclaim in FC chat, "is this quest chain going to fight club me? i know it's going to fight club me"
i guess i can do it now while this fecking relic trial queue ticks over 9000
Relic trial queue?

if you're doing memoria, don't queue for it thru duty finder
NA/EU doesn't use duty finder for EX/Savage
guys, i just got the game
are they not just not in the tracker?
im wondering why im downloading at 00.00 mb/s?
you can track 5 quests at a time
hey guys, the last time ive played this game has been like 2 or 3 years ago, i have a char lvl 47 conjurer, i just purchased shadowbringers, and resubbed. should i start a new char from scratch or continue on lvling my lvl 47 one?
@spark marsh sometimes the patcher just slows to a crawl for no discernible reason. Lots of people experience it, I haven't heard anyone say they know why
no i'm doing the ARR relic quests right now, at the hydra
@oak ice should i just leave it? i really wanna sleep and i have only downloaded 34 mbs so far lol
currently at 0.05%
sounds like a network issue
It should pick up speed again
@marsh thicket theres currently a buff in the game called road to 70 that gives double exp from all sources until you reach lv 70 in any job for 90 days when you create a char in a preferred world, so if you dont have any attachment to that char or friend in particular to hang out with, it might be beneficial to make another in the long run, but its up to you
@latent void ookla speedtest says 15 mbps
fine ill go to bed then, thanks guys
I've completed (only) "Towards the Firmament" and I can't see any NPC offering further sidequests in the chain, e.g. "A Home in the Firmament" (and eventually "To Thaw a Frozen Heart")
I guess that means my server isn't quite there yet in completing the 5.21 reconstruction works
Your server needs to complete all current reconstruction to get the rest of the quests
Is there a way to transfer my config to another char in another server or do i have to do my HUD and Settings all over again?
You can do some file swapping shenanigans for copying hud to another character, not sure if character config settings are one of them
on pc you can copy everything
I just wanna transfer like my HUD and Hotkeys i use
are you on pc?
^
Yea
Documents -> my games -> XIV
All your UI and macros and whatnot are stored in these character folders
It's just a matter of copying and pasting from the correct folders
thats a lot of char cal
Shush
That's besides the point
The common.dat file's date gets updated when you log in as that character so you can use that to work out what character is which
Ohhh i was about to ask how to know which one thanks!!
Usually it's by last updated as well
So if you just signed into a character you can probably sort it by last modified and get a good idea I think?
It's been a while ahahaha
Which ones do i copy from the Char? like all of it?
I'm not sure what all of them are tbh
so I did them all
if there is a log folder you can ignore that though
That's basically just the last X messages of your log
FYI for gearsets depending on how many jobs you have on your alt you won't be able to have them all on your gearset list but as you unlock other classes and expand the gearset list then the ones the ones that didn't make it originally will get added
Got it thanks!

i just made an order from SE shop.
skill speed or tanacity for paladin?
how long does it take to get a verfictaion they are sihpping item??
oh wait.... are they delaying orders because of the virus?
@jovial fjord neither (well BiS lists have enough sks to get to 2.4s-2.42s gcd)
Are the Shire gears the best ones for lv60, right?
That are easy to get, yes
@faint flare my recast is 2.48 so I should go with the SkS?
Sureee.
@faint flare thanks ♥️
any tank available on light/zodiark that can help me with the fate 'the enmity of my enemy'?
So I'm on chaos omega and it says it doesn't accept new acc creation
When will that be lifted
For my friend to play on the same database
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
Aaaa i see
Ideal times are late at night and in the morning
I thought it was a state in which the database would deny acc creation in order to preserve the system
are the clothes of the rak'tika vieras something that a player can wear?
iirc, no. But you can get similar clothes in the Qitana Ravel
But definitely not the same
aw damn, i really like that top, and the ravel ones have different ones
Shows the same amount of skin in the same areas, but yeah the design is different
Can you get that lion as a mount?
Yes!
Reach Shadowbringers and go to the crystarium and trade in "Sacks of Nuts" for it
The hunt currency
Any Shadowbringers one
There is a hunt board
Tells you to kill certain monsters for exp and nuts
Forgiven Reticence
Ok
Oh you beat me to it
just finished rhitahtyn sas arvina trial and it ended within like 3 minutes, i dind't expect it to be so easy is it because its the first time of a full party? so they've made it easy
oh ok ty
It has no ilevel sync?
Would take longer if they level synced to 49, but it's 50 and no sync down
its syncs to 130, which was max lvl
for arr
if it sync'd down to like i90 would take a fair bit longer
how do you trigger a follow up FATE? Specifically talking about the Attack on Highbridge ones in eastern thanalan
usually for fate chains, the follow up spawns shortly after completing the previous one
but also keep in mind that its generally also reliant on successfully completing the previous
huh. we were pretty quick with it, so maybe we just need to wait a bit more?^^' thanks
What level can I unlock the glamour tab?
glamour is unlocked at lvl 15, from the side quest "If I had a glamour" in vesper bay
Oh cool, thanks!
You can get the forgiven reticence in 5.0 right
Yes
Ok

wait what, i just saw someone with the firebird mount aiding them in combat like a chocobo would... how?
or did i just see shit wrong when passing by
SMN phoenix
you can get the firebird mount from getting all of the mounts from heavensward extreme trials
Er...right, what GGEZ said
its the smn demi-pheonix
Is there any way to get a glamourable version of this? https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/7378fab745d i'm aware of replica anima weapons but I think they'd replicate the wrong one
No, it's the animated berimbau replica at the azym Ila vendor for relics
Well
Yes
You can get it for glamor
Once you reach that step in the relic series
yes, there is, the centurio seals in ishgard sells the non relic version
HW was weird
in that you have 2 versions
the tomestone weapon and the relic weapon
ri-iight
relic weapon uses the tomestone weapon as base
i'm not really sure what i'm doing here to be fair
i have an awoken berimbau at present
i'm just trying to get that specific model/colouration ^^ as glam
talk to the old people in ishgard to buy antiquated berimbau
you can buy illuminati goddip from them to augment it to make it dyeable
I'll talk to haurchefaunt's dad then
assuming you've unlocked hunts
ok I'll start at the top then
to unlock Hunts as whole, you need to be 2nd LT in your grand company and complete the quest at your GC HQ called "Let the hunt begin!"
i have a criminal addiction to ignoring blue+ quests
then head to ishgard, there'll be a quest in foundation called "Let the Clan Hunt Begin"
same Totally
My friend wouldn't stop hounding me to do the blue + quests
Every screenshot would be
"Is that a blue + quest?"
👀
after that, you need to do "better bill hunting" in ishgard, "top marks" in idyllshire, and "elite and dangerous" in ishgard
that should unlock everything for the ishgard centurio hunts
'mkay
then talk to the two old elezens down in the bar (the forgotten knight) to purchase items
ok-ay, so i just need to farm this currency to buy it at that point
yeah, though i'd also recommend unlock the stormblood centurio hunts as well
assuming you've progress far enough in
noted
since hw+sb use the same hunt currency, it'll make it faster to get enough
i'm just gonna say orange banana so i can search for this tomorrow and go to bed
I think I asked this before, but where is the mining guild again?
mining guild is in ul'dah
Ul'dah, steps of thal
started as a lalafell though
Race doesn't matter
oh right
Starting class does
marauder
you're going to need to get to the lvl 15 main scenario quest where you get air ship access
Level 15 or so you can go to other city-states
I see
so just keep trucking with it, if you've not gotten that far
gotcha, thanks
does anybody know the name of the song when you get aggro in shadowbringers?
the open world combat theme?
yea
Rencounter
What do these orange markers on the right mean?
it means they're on a mannequin
Just ignore it really
Ah gotcha
On every piece of neo-ish gear on the MB, ___ Astral has bought it for either 5 gil or 5 million
Just wondering what is going on there
Sounds vaguely like RMT
Can someone help? I tried to purchase a mount on the shop but:
You cannot use this function.
Please contact the SQUARE ENIX Support Center for additional details.
Error Code: i2501
I am using a steam wallet, is the feature down or something?
Yeah its strange, its every day and multiple transactions on every single piece of gear
odd
@devout salmon that can sometimes also happen if you try too many times. I’d suggest waiting
This was my first time.
Hmm, do you have a VPN active?
No.
what browser are you using
Chrome.
sometimes using a different browser can help alleviate the issue
try a different one, or turn off any addons/extensions you've got
I'll see if that does it.
Np, glad it was an easy fix
@ornate hatch that's their lvl 50 job gear
@ornate hatch the chest is Cleric's Robe, which you get the set from lv 50 job quest (cleric's attire coffer)
Known as AF1 in the community
thank you
i already did that quest I must have lost the gear how can i get it back?
Where do I claim the mount I ordered? Is it supposed to be in the mail box?
you can trade Antique tokens into kakalan in mor dhona, they drop from sastasha (hard), sunken temple of qarn (hard) and snowcloak
ooh ok ty 😄
It'll be mailed to you, Cornelius. Depending on whether its a single character or account bound mount, it might take a bit
account bound stuff tends to take a bit longer to be delivered
I just logged out and back in and out was there.
I just tried that and nothing. :p
Ah it finally came through.
Okay next question. How do I get authorized to ride a mount?
!faq mounts
'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.
Oof. I have 5 levels to go then.
I was told at lvl 15 I can do my first dungeon, how do I access dungeons? Or do I physically have to walk there?
hello i have a question, i got a 2 seater chocobo mount, how can my brother join me on it if i have it deployed
cause we tried and there was no ride option
you're in a party together?
yes
and when he right clicks on you there's no "ride pillion" option/
i will ask him but we didnt see any ride option
Dungeons are accessed through the duty finder
Most of the leveling ones are given through the story
Yeah I just realized my story is only lvl 14 and I'm lvl 16. But I can't do the MSQ at 14? It's red and has a key on it. A Royal Reception
Are you wearing the listed item?
Didn't know there was a list of items to wear.
It just says speak to Bartholomew
I go there and he says it hasn't started yet and they are waiting for guests.
Ul'dah would be the earring they gave you
the free trial disappeared from my library and it just keeps saying preparing files for like the last 30mins
Nevermind I see it now.. For some reason I didn't get that "voice of the just" was an item.
Sorry for the silly question.
If no one does Sastasha do you just not progress with your MSQ ever?
You should be able to find a party
what region, what role, and how long have you been waiting for?
Oh that's not terrible
DPS just have long queues since everyone plays DPS
I'd go do something while you wait
unlock other classes
do some 
That sort of thing
Yeah guess I can do that.
Things like leveling roulette specifically exist to ensure that there's always people available for any given piece of content
it might take a while but you will get a party
is this enough for the lvl 40 squadron mission? I tried doing it like 3 times now with just 1 stat under the requirement and I failed all 3
You need all 3 requirements hit
^
bruh?
For flagged missions
^
Or its a guarantee fail
ohhh

non-flagged missions you can get away with 2
meet the requirements
wait, leveling up actually increases their stats? 
You could try to do training and adjust the bonus stats and see if you can fit the stats
Cali I've been doing training all the time lmao
maybe take a small amount from the first stat into the second stat?
and I can never meet the requirements
you can't keep doing training
There is a stat limit you can put on your group from training
yeah I know
I already met that limit, I guess I just have to send my squadron on lower level missions
or adjust the classes they are
I don't understand this fucking system at all lmao
if I change any of my recruits' jobs I'm gonna have to do even more fucking training just to hopefully get all 3 stats in
It's not that complicated
You won't have to do training
They'd just swap classes
and different classes have different stat distributions
I already have 1 conjurer, I don't need another one
mental is literally the only stat I need
if I change any of the DPS I lose the tactical stat
what even IS the meta comp for squadrons?
unless you're able to do training to take away a tiny bit of the other stats to put into tactical
Trying to do level 45/55 missions? Because those really want stat-boosting chemistries to get 3/3 on
40
just the flagged lvl 40
the "meta" comp for squadrons is "whatever meets the requirements"
^

I just over leveled mine to hell and adjusted my trainings with a simulator
because in dungeons archers are insane
I guess I either waste my time overleveling my squadron or I change the rogue to a tank.
overleveling it is.

Have you checked to see if there is a DPS with a stat distribution a little less in the power and more in the mental?
Because that'd make it work
probably
I'm sure training could fix up tactical if it gets too low
but then that would mean I'd have to level up the DPS again
why does it take so fucking long to do a single squadron mission
Just wait until you can only succeed once per week
explain how, because I've had this lvl 17 thaumaturge for a long while now and he's only leveled up from training
It only makes them lose one level when you swap their class
You can job change an existing member
ok turns out I'm stupid
you meant changing the job, not recruiting a new DPS entirely
yes
it's almost 1am 
@forest laurel
Level then to level 45 they will meet the flagged mission requirement then.
The next promotion to Captain is more annoying though......
swapping classes to find another stat distribution is probably going to be your friend if you can't train your squad to take just enough power stat and put it into the mental stat
oh my fucking god I can't even swap my rogue to a pugilist because I don't have the book
and I can only buy the book when I get promoted 
You need to be a 1st Lieutenant to get them.
yeah and I'm a 2nd lieutenant
Just over level them
Just level them to 45
That will solve your problem
that's literally the only option I have now
If you pass that L40 mission you will get that promotion.
and like I said
I can't change my rogue to a pugilist to get that extra mental.
because I don't have the book and for some fucking reason it's only available when you're a 1st lieutenant
You want to know why?
which means I now need to spend a few extra days just to become 1st lieutenant
because yoship wants me to suffer for once?
do i have to finish rank 1 of hunting log on all of my classes to rank up in the grand company?
no, just your GC hunting log.
No, just your GC log

No, because the Level 50 flagged mission for promotion to captain requires 5 unique command missions.
That requires you to go into and complete at 5 different dungeons with 3 of your squadron members, those books are for that purpose. (In case you need a healer squadron member and you don't have any for example)
@forest laurel 
how can i use the bot to see the summoner rotation lv60?
"the books are for that purpose" I already know what the books are for
I'm pissed off that I have to waste days just to become 1st lieutenant when the books could've just been made available at 2nd lieutenant
yknow, when you actually unlock the squadron?
if the future ranks are gonna be as bullshit as this I'm gonna lose it
maybe I should just go to bed now
Yup, promoting beyond 2nd Lieutenant is "optional" atm.
And there is even stuff that is only buyable for players with Captain rank.
it's getting late and it's probably ruining my mood now lmao
Night!

and i'm a little bit confused by the deployment tactics skill of the scholar like... in which occasion should i use it?
When you need the healing but not the shield
Like rapidly healing someone to full for a mechanic
Or healing dark knights living dead
Right click the gear piece and click Dye. If you haven't unlocked the dye option, it's in Western Thanalan in the Vesper Bay area as a level 15 quest. Note that some pieces can't be dyed.
@faint flare wrong skill
gotcha
Deploy is basically used when you want to shield the party
Deploy is for deploying a adlo onto the group
Since adlo shield is stronger than succor
put aldo on one person
And less mp
deployment tactic that person and boom everyone has that shield
Bonus points if that adlo crits
For a thicccc shield
(sadly not as thicc as stormblood deploy.adlos)
So I am doing the msq "It's Probably Pirates" and it says I have to use duty finder to go in Sastasha. I queued up but it has been 15 minutes =.= do we have to go through this method or are there workarounds?
DPS class I assume?
Yeah
not that weird
Oh! A tank and another DPS jsut joined 😮
A lot of people play DPS so their queue times are longer
If you want it to go faster you'd have to queue with a tank or a healer really
otherwise just do something else while you queue
like unlocking other classes
Do people still queue up for these lower-level (I am only 24) dungeons though or just those that are going through the same quest? And yeah, I have just been doing other side quests atm
Anyone think they can find a 1080p version of this video from one of the Amazon products?
The daily dungeon roulettes will queue up basically every dungeon so aside from very specific raids/trials, everything is populated to some degree
I...can't hear it @vague mica
Doesn't have sound
Oh
I'm just looking for a higher resolution of it
Pfft
Because I know Amazon is downscaling it for sure
Is there a way to change your characters idle stance?
Instead of looking like a stick man.
If you mean your normal standing pose, you can type /cpose
You have a few different poses for standing, sitting in a chair, sitting on the ground, and even while laying on a bed.
Yeah you have a few options
if you have your weapon out though you only have one idle pose
Which dungeon is the quickest to run, Grand Cosmos or Anamnesis Anyder?
Of the two I'd say Cosmos
grand cosmos, but not by much
tho ofc how fast you're going to clear is entirely dependent on your group if you're not going in with premade

Most likely the empty?
basically areas that don't exactly fit into the current map regions
like iirc rabanastre or orbonne are under there
because rabanastre, etc aren't in any of the other regions 😛
oh so its supposed to stay as "???"
yes
Tomestones
Run level 80 dungeons for Phanta and gear
You can also run Copied factory for i460 stuff
Savage Eden isn’t needed
Yeah crafted new-Ishgard is an option too if you’re willing to spend Gil
Most of the pieces on Aether (at least for Gilgamesh) hover around 100k Gil each
whats the alternative to crafted gear, a mixture of allegory gear and eden resurrection gear?
right now?
best alternative is to do the EX trial for idealized relic gear
480 with 5 slots
and crafted or eden accessories from normal
and to do ex trials, phanta gear and copied factory gear?
They still need a minimum of i470 for Misera extreme
But yeah, your best bet is to get enough ilvl for the 2nd part of Eden and then spam that along with dungeons to get up in ilvl
With a mix of Allegory/Augmented Phanta/Edencall
trying to decidie whether to join a preffered world for eperience or join another for guild
is it true the preffered worlds have low population?
Not entirely
They are lower, but not drastically so.
As a new player it'd feel even more busy because other new players would be there
And also ^
so really the "busier" servers would be preferred honestly
So them being smaller is really only accurate when they recently get turned into preferred worlds
just from activity
even then honestly the only servers I feel are actually small are some of the Crytal ones that just aren't "the big ones"
Buddy is in a trial account trying to make a goon on siren, but it says it’s full?
Right that's temp locked
based on the total amount of people logged in at once
just trying at a quieter time will do
like later in the day
Okay thanks a ton!
Non Sam?
it means they'll take someone who's not playing as Samurai
^
pretty self-explanatory, i should think
I assume one of them is already a samurai
oh
and if you have duplicate jobs your limit break gauge charges slower
so they are probably wanting to avoid that
fair enough
That's the only reason I can think of why they would ever say "no sam"
outside of just being dumb
When I'm responding to emails from support, it's okay if I reply back on the same email right or do I have to re-submit another ticket requesting further action?
(Context: I'm trying to renew my subscription to the game but I'm experiencing errors when going through the process)
170 more quests to finish ARR MSQ hahah and im already level 39 my quest is only 34.
I believe replying to the email is fine @untold dagger
I had issues before regarding something else and I was just able to have an email conversation with support
Awesome, thanks a lot Calisae 🙂
is it possible to be in a guild but in diff worlds
no, free companies are still server bound

Only temporally, just try at a quieter time @leaden ginkgo
ok
Is there anyway for me to do dungeons with friends from other server?
@leaden ginkgo tonberry wont let you create a character when i finally managed the place is empty
Make a party with them and que
@faint flare like fixed party or chance only
Okay this is even if they are from a diff server
Yes
since 2013, so yeah
Its just sad i wont be able to play anymore after the quarantine and wfh
So I am a level 54 PLD and just getting back into the game. I just finished Sohm Al in the HW MSQ. All the quests have refreshed my armor, but my mainhand and shield have not been upgraded. Any tips on where or how I can upgrade my weapon/shield?
what expansion does game get more actiony. i have like 50+ msq left to finish ARR
I quit playing around the time HW came out several years ago and just resubbed.
@finite ferry in terms of story or gameplay? Heavensward is definitely a start for both as the level 50-60 actions for most jobs really fill out their toolkit or fix some sore spots
Msq gives you enough gear
Losing out on the Road to 70 boost isn’t too major. As long as you keep up on daily roulettes like Leveling, Alliance Raid, and Main Scenario, you’ll be ahead of the curve for experience.
^ It's nice to have but you're not exactly shooting yourself in the foot if you don't get it
a lot of low-level EXP sources have been increased by quite a bit over the years to help people catch up quickly
You’ll only really notice a drought of experience once you hit Shadowbringers story depending on the level you are when you hit that.
you can upgrade it in Idyllshire and then you can
ok
ohhh ayt thx
The materials needed to upgrade it can be bought with Centurio seals in Ishgard
what are centurio seals?
Roulettes are technically separate from dungeons
ok
You unlock your first one once you get the second dungeon. They’re basically you queueing for a bunch of duties at once and getting bonus experience and endgame currency for it
oh ok
Why are there so many quests that force you to do them alone.. Kind of really annoying.
Especially in an MMO.
so I recently bouight a bunch of aether weapons from POTD
and my weapons and armor ar eweak now
what's the minimum for floor 51?

So i bought ffx14 dlc collector edition on steam, how do i know that my current ffx14 are updated to dlc?
Check the mogstation and see if your licenses look something like this.
Enter the codes from the keys section of FFXIV’s game page on steam
I am lvl 21 and have a limit break gauge. But no Limit break skill button. How do I get it?
Actions and traits and geberal
Should be somewhere in the right-click options when choosing games to launch. I haven’t used steam in forever so I can’t tell you where.
I found it, thx
I didn't even notice the general tab. Thanks as always. 🙂
@obsidian patio thx it worked
I'm trying to get a friend to meld a materia for me, but the game keeps saying they 'Cannot meld materia at this time' They're a level 50 Disciple of Hand (weaving) and they've done the quests over in Ul'dah for being able to do melding
is there a way to edit the kagerou overlay?
like
through html
and have it save
I wanna get rid of the dropdown menu
Nevermind, dunno what fixed it x.x
how is ninja in current FFXIV
!faq meta
👍
yea the changes have made the busyness more contained
during your trick windows
and mudra on the gcd means you're not trying to quad weave and mega clip
Tied between monk dragoon and ninja for maxing very undecided currently
i feel like i have stockholm syndrome. i hated monk until level 60 or so, but now at 80 i would recommend it to anyone.
[11:03 PM] Shy: IS their a way to disable right clicking targeting people?
[11:03 PM] Shy: maybe rekeybind it\
Is there any difference in what grand company I join besides lore (ie is there any perks/skills etc that you get or is it all just the same)?
@latent void I can agree I didn't like pugilist/monk when I first started it felt bland but I did like the rear and behind mechanics needed and so really im like what would I like the most at max
uniform color
@signal rover just the location and the look of their equipment, really.
Sometimes your rank for them pops up in the story
ninja looks like it would be fun but i honestly don't even have rogue unlocked. i've tried leveling dragoon in several spurts but it feels like a waste with a melee dps class already at 80 when i could be leveling a tank or heal job instead
or crafting
tru
My logic usually is if it looks fun/cool to watch
yeah eventually i'll be there
I like playing NIN, though the trick attack burst windows can be a bit hectic
Yea
i got to 80 for monk largely on stubbornness
im not sure my fingers can handle ninja
aaaa is there no way to edit kagerou
I just wanna get rid of that stupid square
there must exist some css in it that saves
I don’t know much about ACT and overlays. Maybe try asking in here? https://discord.gg/hK523Pj
Is selling feet pics for gil against the ToS?
lmfao
I already answered you in #general-discussion
ah
Lets keep feet discussion out of here for sanity purposes.
and sanitary ones
99 feathers @.@
Question totally not related to the past one
how do I contact support for a question?
Probably through the in-game support desk
@little walrus Thinker’s Coral from the Thaliak River in the Hinterlands, and Dragonspine from Dragonspit in the Western Highlands
Thinkers coral. And do you mean for the turn-ins? Denys at x8 y10 in Foundation has the exchange
Fish aren’t like that, you need to fish them up first
random but Siren or Faerie..any suggestions on which world to choose
Both are pretty ok from what I've experienced in DF/PF. Can't really say much else besides that Faerie feels like it usually has lower Marketboard prices than Siren for semi-rare/collectable stuff
oh
@obsidian patio i heard faerie is more chill n less raiding
plus as a new player siren would be better anyway for me ye?
Doesn't really matter, since raiding is done over the whole datacenter and not just specific servers anymore.
oh
Aether as a whole is pretty active in endgame raiding
if I haven't finished the starting main quest and bought a tales of adventure for machinist aka lazy level would I still be it even though normally you must do main quest first
the red text doesnt say anything about it
yeah buying a job boost can unlock the job before you get to HW
the beauty of money
