flat summit
#

But he aint giving me no compass

#

He only telling me what to do for a quest

#

Drinking the pain away

#

Bruh

quaint dune
#

will it be a super long waiting time? Cuz summoner seems so cool 😦

wintry chasm
#

Accept the quest then talk to him again I guess

scarlet arrow
#

also make sure you've checked your key items bag, not your regular inventory

rich heath
#

Thanks! @wintry chasm

wintry chasm
#

15 mins Ming?

faint flare
#

Dungeons not really, just normal wait time for DPS

wintry chasm
#

normal wait times for DPS is long

quaint dune
#

Oh o.o

open coral
#

A pair of dps will wait longer for a party in duty finder than a dps/healer or dps/tank team

faint flare
#

But you'll rarely get a party together for higher end content cause like no one does dupe jobs in Extreme/savages

open coral
#

Always

hearty orbit
#

new t offxiv looking to play ast what should i start as so i can migrate to that roll in havensword?

wintry chasm
#

doesn't matter

#

healer might be nice so you get experience and gear to help level up ast

#

otherwise yeah not important

quaint dune
#

Ohhh ): rip

#

Ty guys for the info!

hearty orbit
#

Cool thank you

open coral
#

What you could do @quaint dune , is one of you go Scholar and the other go Summoner at level30

flat summit
#

I aint got nothing in my bag

#

No compass

drifting minnow
#

(Anyone know someone who can help make basement lofts?)

open coral
#

Both jobs will level simultaneously since they share the base Arcanist class

wintry chasm
#

and you accepted the quest and talked to him again Ronin?

open coral
#

And you’ll have a dps/healer for queues

flat summit
#

Yh

#

@wintry chasm

wintry chasm
#

and you checked your key items section?

quaint dune
#

ohhh if you go scholar, will you be able to go back to summoner? Sorry for the qs I’m new af 😓

flat summit
#

Yeah

#

Like 3 times

#

What itcalled?

faint flare
#

Yes ming

open coral
#

Yes. Scholar and Summoner both come from Arcanist

wintry chasm
#

aether current compas

faint flare
#

You can freely swap jobs

quaint dune
#

Oh! Thanks ☺️

faint flare
#

Whenever you're not in combat or instance

open coral
#

So as you level one, the other gains levels as well

flat summit
#

I aint never seen anything like thag

quaint dune
#

Ooh ty so much guys

wintry chasm
#

screenshot what happens when you interact with him

flat summit
#

Bruh

#

He saying shit about sympathetic ear and all

#

Then nothing

scarlet arrow
#

all jobs level independently from each other (except for Summoner and Scholar which will always be the same level)

wintry chasm
#

Wait

flat summit
#

He be acting like he dont know me

quaint dune
#

ohhh cool

wintry chasm
#

Where are you in main story Ronin?

quaint dune
#

Tyty

flat summit
#

No idea

open coral
#

You’re also not locked to those jobs if you don’t like them. After completing your class quest at level 10, you will be able to learn how to become any other class in the game for which you otherwise meet requirements

wintry chasm
#

spoiler tag something

flat summit
#

How?

faint flare
#

Key to the castle

flat summit
#

I forgot

faint flare
#

Judging from the screenshot earlier

wintry chasm
#

||like this||

oak ice
#

|| on both sides

wintry chasm
#

oh

flat summit
#

||no idea||

wintry chasm
#

he had a screenshot yes

flat summit
#

That where im at

#

Im kidding

quaint dune
#

Ohhh that’s so nice with lots of options 😁 tysmmm

flat summit
#

Im at shadow bringer quest

faint flare
#

Shadowbringers

flat summit
#

U think he ran out of compass?

obsidian patio
#

I know an NPC in Rhalgr’s reach also gives the compass. mooglethink

faint flare
#

Tbh i get my replacement by the guy near the big tent in rhalgars, where ||Lyse|| and that is

flat summit
#

Dang bro

#

Enlighten me my man

#

Wtf is lyse

#

I also read somewheee that u can get from grindelwald

#

But I aint got no memory about where exactly

obsidian patio
#

Yeah that guy should be in Rhalgr’s reach

wintry chasm
#

Gaufrid (x14.3, y9.6)

flat summit
#

Imma try looking at rhal then

#

If not imma go to grindelwald

wintry chasm
#

I dunno how to tell you this but I'm pretty sure Grindelwald isn't an NPC

flat summit
#

No i talking about the location

raw solstice
#

not a location that I've heard of, either

flat summit
#

Bruh

#

Is ur hometown

raw solstice
#

do you mean gridania?

oak ice
#

Gridania?

flat summit
#

Yh

wintry chasm
#

There is no one there that should give you an aether current

flat summit
#

But thats what i call it

oak ice
#

No Aethercompass giver there, I'm pretty sure

flat summit
#

Grindelwald

#

Easier to remember

wintry chasm
#

Well it doesn't matter what you call it that isn't very helpful for us

raw solstice
#

you do you, but nobody else is gonna follow that haha

#

but yeah, there's only two places to get the aether compass back, and we've mentioned both

safe compass
#

So I got a friend code to use and I am currently on a free trial. I was under the impression I have to insert my FC before I registered my game to my account but I can't see where to actually do that. the instructions I'm seeing say to bind the information first

raw solstice
#

you should be able to get it from either--if I had to guess there's a decent chance you still have it and haven't realized it. But might as well try the one in rhalgr's first, I suppose

flat summit
#

Oh dang really

#

So grildelwald aint got no compass?

wintry chasm
#

you put your friend code in after you register the game but before you buy actual game time @safe compass

oak ice
#

No, Ishgard, Rhalgr or it should also be in the Crystarium

flat summit
#

Dang , these websites be lying to me all the time

safe compass
#

so I bought the main game, I need to put in the activation key first then put in my FC?

flat summit
#

Im at rhals al ghul now

wintry chasm
#

Ronin can you do me a favour

#

can you just screenshot your key items?

flat summit
#

Where i go?

#

Bruh

wintry chasm
#

just real quick

flat summit
#

How u not trust

#

Im a honest man

#

Never beeen in jail

raw solstice
#

it's nothing to do with honesty

flat summit
#

My entire life

open coral
#

“Pics or it didn’t happen “

oak ice
#

It's a social experiment, man

raw solstice
#

often the simplest solution is the correct one

oak ice
#

He's curious what you keep there

raw solstice
#

many times people are like "hey I'm positive that it's not there" then it is

wintry chasm
#

^

flat summit
#

My mama told me if someone ask u to prove something it mean they dont trust u

open coral
#

Occam’s Razor

#

We trust that you believe what you’re saying is true

raw solstice
#

listen like, we're trying to help you. Making sure that it's not there is a pretty good step to take

flat summit
#

See

#

I aint got no nuthin

#

Honest my entire life

open coral
#

We don’t trust that what you’re saying is correct

wintry chasm
#

Okay fair

flat summit
#

Never went to no jail

wintry chasm
#

Gaufrid (x14.3, y9.6) Ronin

flat summit
#

Dang

#

Alright

Imma check it out now

#

Thank u cuh

#

wintry chasm

oak ice

#

Sent straight from heaven

#

Danggggggf

#

Bruh no homo but i love u

wintry chasm
#

alright stop it

flat summit
#

Oh my god dang

#

U save my life cuh

raw solstice
#

for reference, that NPC at the bar is still a valid way to get the compass back (just tested again myself) in case you end up losing it again

#

you just have to make sure to select the "aether current" option in the first dialogue box

flat summit
#

Thank u girl

#

Right eight

#

Dang

#

Yall made to be heroes

#

Warrior of light whatever that shit mean

gilded salmon
#

do you have to pay only once for an apartment?

wintry chasm
#

Correct

gilded salmon
#

also if you buy one in a free company?

flat summit
gilded salmon
#

ixion fate in the lochs

faint flare
#

Do the ixion special fate in the lochs

open coral
#

That’s Ixion

flat summit
#

Wtf that mean

#

My mama only taught me english

faint flare
#

Very rare fate

flat summit
#

Oh it a reward?

obsidian patio
#

Ixion is a rare world boss that spawns every 24-48 hours in the lochs

open coral
#

There is a special world boss FATE in the Stormblood zone “The Lochs”

flat summit
#

Oh dang

wintry chasm
#

All housing is a one time purchase @gilded salmon

gilded salmon
#

thanks

flat summit
#

And I cant just steal his horse off him?

open coral
#

You kill that horse and get tokens which can be used to buy the mount

obsidian patio
#

No.

open coral
#

That’s the only way to get it

flat summit
#

Fair enough

leaden ginkgo
#

besides raiding what is there to do after finishing the ShB MSQ?

wintry chasm
#

Whatever you want?

obsidian patio
#

Lots of various things like treasure maps, beast tribes, gold saucer, Ishgard restoration, PvP

flat summit
#

My mama told me to always be honest but said its ok to steal if i want something

open coral
#

Beast tribes, glamour, mount or minion farming

#

Non-msq dungeons

gilded salmon
#

100 % the game

open coral
#

Level more combat or crafting jobs

flat summit
#

Btw how long shadow bringer been out?

wintry chasm
#

Oh God um

mossy current
#

Glamor is true end game

little swift

obsidian patio
#

flat summit
#

flat summit
#

wintry chasm

open coral
#

Last July

wintry chasm

obsidian patio
#

!expansion

zinc orbitBOT
#
Tick, Tock, Kupo!

Time Since Shadowbringers Launched: 301 Days, 17 Hours, 20 Minutes, 36 Seconds

wintry chasm
#

There we go

flat summit
#

Dang we almost a year with this shit

little swift
#

flat summit
#

Right right

#

So im guessing yall already finish it?

open coral
#

The MSQ? What there is, yes

flat summit
#

I see cuh

open coral
#

But there will always be more released with each patch

#

And each expansion as well

flat summit
#

And how frequent are the expansions?

faint flare
#

2 years

flat summit
#

Like once in two year?

open coral
#

About every 2 years, yeah

flat summit
#

Fair enough

#

Is good

#

So we aint getting nothing this year

#

Especially with all these diseases

open coral
#

We’re still getting content patches

wintry chasm
#

We are certainly getting patch 5.3 this year

#

5.4?

#

Who knows

#

too much to consider

open coral
#

5.3 is coming, but delayed at least a few weeks to a month

flat summit
#

Oh like them update patches

#

Yeah I see

#

Alright yall

#

Have a good day

open coral
#

They talked about it a bit on the Live Letter this morning

flat summit
#

Imma go get those ethers with my new compass

#

Then chill at my hometown grindelwald

mossy current
#

For future reference, how does one enter Baldesion Arsenal?

#

I know you can get the Aetherly Prime status from the support fates

#

Or something

#

I don't wanna bother Aether BA server with more of my BS questions

midnight slate
#

@mossy current what world you on?

mossy current

Midgardsormr

midnight slate
#

ughhhhhh

hybrid phoenix
#

Can someone please confirm that even if I level my main class past 70, I will still get 100% armoury bonus exp for other classes lower than 70?

proud willow
#

You mean Armoury Bonus or Road to 70 bonus? either way, yes

hybrid phoenix
#

Armoury Bonus only.

#

Okay, thanks. :3

flat summit
#

Yes @hybrid phoenix

hybrid phoenix
#

Thank you. ^^

flat summit
#

No idea what armory mean tho

#

But road to 70 yes

faint flare
#

You will always get 100% xp bonus for any job under 70, provided its under your highest level job still

mossy current

NVM found BA guide

drifting burrow
#

is there an option to dye hair pieces? i like my hair style, but not particularly the color of the hair tie :c

wintry chasm
#

You can't dye hair pieces if they are part of the hairstyle

#

but some hairstyles have different versions with different colour hair pieces

dusk merlin
#

Typically speaking is it better to sell the zonureskin maps or run them?

wintry chasm
#

Run them I guess?

#

theoretically that depends on how much they are going for on your server

dusk merlin
#

40k on mine

wintry chasm
#

That's certainly more than I thought but I'm going to stick with running

#

because if you run and get some nice items you really strike big

dusk merlin
#

Strike big like casino level RNG or an actual chance?

wintry chasm
#

actual chance

dry tree
#

How should I be healing as a white mage? (still a noob)

proud willow
#

All healers tend to spend most of their time doing damage

dry tree
#

only use cure 2 after getting thatting that 15% chance of 0 cost from cure?

proud willow
#

no no

little swift
#

freecure is a bait

#

don't rely on it

proud willow
#

MP is not really a concern at all

drifting atlas
#

How do I shoot while riding magitec armor ?

proud willow
#

rather than "how much potency per MP can I get?" you should be thinking "how much potency per cast?"

#

so Cure 2 is always better even though it's less efficient

faint flare
#

You want to be GCD efficient

dry tree
#

so I shouldnt bother with cure?

faint flare
#

Lucid gives plenty of MP

proud willow
#

right

faint flare
#

Cure is your lowest priority heal

proud willow
#

when you get Cure 3 though, that is not a straight upgrade. It's an aoe heal

dusk merlin
#

Does WHM get more MP efficient once you hit 50? I always found myself starving on MP running though ARR with it

faint flare
#

Off global heals > regen and lilies > Cure 2 > Cure 1

#

Is healing priotry

proud willow
#

if you have like a crazy wall-to-wall puller in Stone Vigil, you can run low on MP

#

but generally you shouldn't have MP problems even when Lucid is your only tool

dusk merlin
#

I remember Darkhold being tough

dry tree
#

alrighty, thx for the tip :>

dusk merlin
#

Tank and DPS are easy, WHM was so stressful because I always felt behind

obsidian patio
#

@drifting atlas complete the sidequest “magiteknical difficulties” in Mor Dhona

#

WHM starts being very MP efficient once you get Afflatus Solace, which is a free instant Cure 2 every 30 seconds, and Thin Air, which removes the MP cost off of ALL your spells for 10 seconds.

gentle leaf
#

What's the best way to farm a lot of materia?

#

Say enough to mels the entire 485 set

#

Meld*

obsidian patio
#

Assize also helps with the free 5% MP every 45 seconds

dusk merlin
#

Ah so basically HW is where it stops being as stressful or am I probably doing something wrong still?

obsidian patio
#

Yeah 50-60 gives you most of your mp tools

bronze sorrel
#

Then thin air at 72

obsidian patio
#

Thin Air is 58 now

bronze sorrel
#

REALLY

obsidian patio
#

With SHB

#

!action thin air

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Thin Air** : lvl 58 WHM (120.0 second cooldown)

Reduces MP cost of all spells by 100%.
Duration: 12s

bronze sorrel
#

I am an old man

#

That's amazing

obsidian patio
#

@gentle leaf if you mean pentamelding then you’ll probably have to buy a good amount of it off the marketboard.

#

You can probably try spiritbonding i460-480 gear in Anamnesis Anyder

#

And then hunt trains in SHB zones whenever you see those happen

dusk merlin
#

Hunt trains also give good materia, that's how I get mine at least

dry tree
#

whats the difference between inflicting sleep and binding an enemy?

obsidian patio
#

Sleep = doesn’t attack at all
Bind = can still attack if you’re close enough and facing you

#

And sleep interrupts their current cast too

gentle leaf
#

I mean the set from the new ex

#

So it's guaranteed meld

#

I'll try hunts tt

#

Ty*

obsidian patio
#

Then yeah, spirit bond i460-480 gear and do your shadowbringers hunts

gentle leaf
#

Does anyone have the chaos datacenter hunts discord?

faint flare
#

Treasure maps give a ton too

gentle leaf
#

I run maps weekly but my luck has been a bit sas

#

Sad*

#

So i want something more consistent

timid pivot
#

Can astrologian's do damage on their lonesome? I wanna play the class but not be too useless when exploring on my own.

faint flare
#

Yes

#

All healers can

gentle leaf
#

Yeah

#

I haven't had issues in that regars

faint flare
#

And all healers are expected to dps to some degree

timid pivot
#

Alrighty, thanks

scarlet arrow
#

granted healer classes don't really have an interesting set of damage tools but they do have them

hard pond
#

Best dungeon for 70 -> 71?

faint flare
#

Castrum abania

hard pond
#

Even though its 69?

faint flare
#

Yrs

#

Cause 70 dungeon and other capstone dungeons give fuck all

leaden ginkgo
#

Hello and good evening everyone

#

I was wondering...I have the base game that I bought years ago with my PS4. I am willing to resub to give it another go, but is it worth it without any add-ons?

remote lintel
#

you mean dlc?

leaden ginkgo
#

DLC. Expansions. Whatever they are called here.

remote lintel
#

it's way better with the dlc but still good without it

#

the main story goes into the dlcs so you won't know what happens

leaden ginkgo
#

Would the base game be a good way to get into the game?

remote lintel
#

yes

faint flare
#

You'll be locked to lv50 and that content without addobs

remote lintel
#

if you finish the base game and like it then buy the dlc

leaden ginkgo
#

The reason I quit last time was because when I would go into dungeons, everyone would run ahead and leave me behind. There was no team work and so much going on that I got overwhelmed.

remote lintel
#

I've never had that happen

#

you NEED teamwork to do dungeons

slate arrow
#

it's typical to pull as much as you can in dungeons

#

so usually the tank runs until they can't move forward

faint flare
#

Everyone more or less pulls 2 packs to everything and its peoples job to keep up and kill everything before tank and healer run out of resources

leaden ginkgo
#

I understand the mechanics of a dungeon

#

Just saying how my experience went

#

The game was great until I had to team up with strangers lol

slate arrow
#

oh ARR dungeons are especially bad because they branch and go in random directions

remote lintel
#

i dont think you'll find that anymore

leaden ginkgo
#

Also...can I not play for free because I subbed in the past?

remote lintel
#

you cannot

faint flare
#

Well

leaden ginkgo
#

Unless I create a new account?

remote lintel
#

yes

faint flare
#

There's currently a free days promotion

remote lintel
faint flare
#

Going on right now

#

Inactive accounts get 8 days free

remote lintel
#

does that start once u login?

faint flare
bronze sorrel
#

Yea

remote lintel
#

interesting

bronze sorrel
#

8 days from when you first log in

leaden ginkgo
#

Hmmm

hard elk
#

is mini cactpot irl time or in game time

bronze sorrel
#

It's not 192 hours of play time

slate arrow
#

irl

bronze sorrel
#

@hard elk irl

faint flare
#

Irl

hard elk
#

ooo sweet okay!

slate arrow
#

everything is irl time except for gathering

warped nest
#

192 is a lot of playtime

bronze sorrel
#

It's 192 hours of real time

leaden ginkgo
#

Be honest...is this server friendly to new players?

faint flare
#

Yes

bronze sorrel
#

Sure

faint flare
#

Just look at the channel you're in now

#

👀

hard elk
#

i can confirm its super friendly @leaden ginkgo

warped nest
#

If you sit down and play 4-5 hours a day, 192 hours is 40 days worth of gameplay

remote lintel
#

unless u story skip

leaden ginkgo
#

Awesome...I might give it a go

#

I just got laid off today...so I have the time.

warped nest
#

I am sorry to hear that

#

Hope that you get back on your feet soon

random bramble
#

Hiii. I'm not sure what questions to ask here, but I'm new and happy to hear any advice while I finish waiting for the game to download 🙂

leaden ginkgo
#

Just dont want to drop the money if I am unsure

warped nest
#

You can play the trial

#

It has a lvl 35 cap

faint flare
#

They would need a new account

#

Since they brought ages ago

warped nest
#

Ahh

#

I see

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah, what @faint flare said

#

I bought my PS4 like...4 years ago?

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo you can buy time for $12.99 instead of 15$ if you only have 1 character per world

faint flare
#

It wouldn't to be a terrible idea to do so

#

Refresh the story.memory

#

And stuff

remote lintel
#

also the dlcs are on sale for like 24$ right now

#

normally 40

leaden ginkgo
#

@remote lintel I might see if I can get a free trial somehow

faint flare
#

Before commiting and jumping onto.your original character

dry tree
#

just get the complete edition

leaden ginkgo
#

Gotta allocate funds after being let go from my job

remote lintel
#

fair enough

leaden ginkgo
#

Not flat broke...but don't want to toss money away for something I won't play. Like I did with FF7 remake...

#

:(

remote lintel
#

damn

dry tree
#

oof

remote lintel
#

should pick it up again sometime

faint flare
#

Make use of the free login campaign or making a new account

#

To dip toes in

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah, that looks like the way to go, @faint flare

remote lintel
#

is there a point to flare, freeze, and scathe on blm

warped nest
#

Yes, yes, occasionally

faint flare
#

Flare and freeze yes for aoe

#

Scathe basically never

warped nest
#

Flare and Freeze is your AOE rotation

faint flare
#

Or extreme niches

warped nest
#

Scathe is "I need to hit a thing with 1 HP"

faint flare
#

also literally what is written on the blm guide for scathe is "dont use this"

warped nest
#

Sometimes there are stuff you just need to hit once to dispel their cast or whatev, very very niche

remote lintel
#

what about fire 2 and blizzard 2 then

faint flare
#

Trash

warped nest
#

They were your AOE rotation

faint flare
#

Unless you're synced under 68

remote lintel
#

so just replace them with flare and freeze

faint flare
#

Then you use firw 2

warped nest
#

!faq blmleveling

THM/BLM leveling rotations
warped nest
#

See this

remote lintel
#

what is t4

faint flare
#

Thunder 4

#

Upgrade of thunder 2

remote lintel
#

how can i do flare twice

faint flare
#

Trait at.68

warped nest
#

What is your BLM level?

remote lintel
#

71

faint flare
#

Umbral hearts reduces the cost of flare

warped nest
#

Umbral hearts from Blizzard 4 or Umbral Soul (70+ skill)

remote lintel
#

oh right

faint flare
#

After lv68

#

So you can double flare

warped nest
#

You can triple Flare with mana font

remote lintel
#

i thought t3 was better than t4?

faint flare
#

Quad with ether

warped nest
#

One is single target

little swift
#

t3 is single target

warped nest
#

One is aoe

remote lintel
#

so i can use either depending on how many enemies

warped nest
#

Yes

#

The only one you can remove off your hotbar are Scathe and Blizzard II

#

From 18-34, you can just Blizzard 1 to kill time when you regen MP in UI

#

If you really really want to get rid of B2

#

That is

#

Oh, BLM has a sleep spell too

#

It is useful in open world exploration I guess

yes

warped nest
#

Not a thing

slate arrow
#

roles are locked in

faint flare
#

Correctt

warped nest
#

This game doesn't have specialization

craggy dragon
#

anyone have an estimate on how much gil it would take on average to level a crafter/gatherer? i know its server dependent but i was looking for a number

slate arrow
#

if you want to play something in a different role you just swap to that role

remote lintel
#

but flare completely removes umbral hearts so I'd only be able to cast it twice and then I'd have 0 mp?

faint flare
#

Correct cerv

slate arrow
#

!trait Element Mastery

warped nest
#

!action Manafont

zinc orbitBOT
#
Error!

Item not found, Kupo!

#
**Manafont** : lvl 30 BLM (180.0 second cooldown)

Restores 30% of maximum MP.

faint flare
#

You then Transpose or manafont

remote lintel
#

if I have 0 mp then I can't cast b3 to restore it

#

oh

faint flare
#

The lv72 trait fixes that

warped nest
#

You have a new trait at 72

slate arrow
#

!trait Aspect Mastery

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Aspect Mastery** : lvl 72 BLM

Accumulating full stacks of either Astral Fire or Umbral Ice then casting a spell of the opposite element will consume no MP.
Effect does not apply to Flare.

faint flare
#

^

remote lintel
#

ahh

#

ok

slate arrow
#

this trait really needs to be on BLM at lower levels e3e

warped nest
#

Tldr: you can cast Blizzard 3 or Free when you 0 MP in AF3

faint flare
#

After lv72 black mage is mega comfy

warped nest
#

You have transpose before 72

remote lintel
#

transpose doesn't give mp?

warped nest
#

It swap your AF and UI

#

Did you boost your BLM?

remote lintel
#

......maybe

warped nest
#

If so, remove all skills off hotbar

#

Go find a dumny

remote lintel
#

I did

warped nest
#

Add skills back one by one while you use it on a dummy

#

Read tooltips

remote lintel
#

I do

warped nest
#

BLM is definitely one of the more confusing job

#

As evident, we have a faq just for BLM rotation while leveling

#

Other jobs don't have a leveling rotation faq

remote lintel
#

I watched guides on it and they explain way fast

vivid dagger
#

if any interior decorators could possibly help me with an issue im having: I'm trying to float a Mounted Bookshelf using stage panel and wooden loft. I can float just about anything else no issues. The mounted bookshelf will not raise up and just clips into the wooden loft. Anyone have any suggestions?

warped nest
#

Most guides aren't designed for people who boost

#

Umm... Do you have any other questions on BLM?

remote lintel

do I use flare for multiple enemies and f4 for single target?

warped nest
#

Yes

remote lintel
#

ok got it

warped nest
#

Take note that F4 doesn't refresh your Astral Fire

faint flare
#

Fire 4 wins out until like 3 use targets

#

Iirc

warped nest
#

So you need to weave a F1 in there

remote lintel
#

yeah I know

faint flare
#

Unless they changed numbers

hybrid phoenix
#

Is the Aether data center currently located in California?

#

Google giving vague info.

warped nest
#

All NA Data center are in the same location btw

#

I forgot the actual location though

hybrid phoenix
#

One says Montreal and another California

warped nest
#

Probably not in Montreal

slate arrow
#

They moved the DCs to california a while back

#

montreal was the old location

#

iirc

hybrid phoenix
#

Ah ok thanks

warped nest
#

A while back is probably a long while then

#

Cuz I vaguely remember it is west coast USA for a few years now

#

Like at least 2 years

#

Sorry, I was looking for the summoner leveling tag.

slate arrow
#

there isn't one

timid pivot
#

My bad then.

slate arrow
#

it's just use garuda and outburst

#

only BLM has one because it has so many skills and traits which modify the rotation it gets absurd at times

timid pivot
#

I don't have garuda yet, do I use ifrit or emerald carbuncle?

slate arrow
#

emerald

timid pivot

Thanks

vagrant copper

vagrant copper

The Lominsian Envoy? SHould be the next one

junior yacht

vagrant copper
severe siren
#

@vagrant copper i got the lominsian envoy one, is this the one i need?

quick quartz
#

wtf it did it again?!?!

#

ok that's odd.

#

is there a question limit?

#

I only had 9.

fresh lodge
#

No

#

Its because you mentioned too many people

quick quartz
#

what in the actual FF, you can't ask questions if you thank too many ppl at the end of it.

#

omfg

#

not typing that again

#

aight short version time.

fresh lodge
#

Its to prevent spam bots from spamming everyone

vagrant copper
#

That should be the one spongebob 🤷‍♂️

quick quartz
#

i thanked 5 ppl, wouldn't call that spam but oh well

fresh lodge
#

Just post individual messages instead of 1 large message

#

Does anyone have any idea if someone can download the free trial on a PSN account that was linked to a XIV account but later got unlinked? Niche question I know

drifting atlas
#

Are relics bad for stat ?

quick quartz
#

Compressed version:

Can NA ppl play on or join EU players?

Are there any red mage, Monk masters out there who are mic'd to teach me their ways?

if I do base game story can I thin go to storm blood since not buying all the expansions with out....dropping faster then a choco turd?

Color changing in game how dat work?

I WANNA BUY FENRIR can you access mog station in game?

fresh lodge
#

NA player can play on EU servers, but if you're on an NA server then you can't play with EU servers

#

You only have to buy Shadowbringers, it comes with all the other expansions

wintry chasm
#

@drifting atlas they are really good for their ilvl really

drifting atlas
#

So if we look at end game lvl80 stuff, are they worth it besides glamour ?

fresh lodge
#

You unlock the dye system at Vesper Bay

slate arrow
#

@quick quartz join the relevant role and use the channels if you have questions over specific jobs. Makes it easier, haha.

fresh lodge
#

And no mogstation in game

wintry chasm
#

Good stepping stone for getting higher item level and by the end of the expansion should be the best @drifting atlas

drifting atlas
#

So it's better than the rare drops from dg ?

slate arrow
#

Item level is king

fresh lodge
#

There aren't any rare gear drops from dungeons

#

And yes

#

It's better than dungeon gear

stable hinge
#

whats the best way for an armourer to make money?

slate arrow
#

Selling endgame gear or the current ingot

fresh lodge
#

Make high level armour and sell it

stable hinge
#

current ingot?

fresh lodge
#

Or sell the mats needed to make it

stable hinge
#

Im guessing lv32 armourer wont cut it

slate arrow
#

nope

fresh lodge
#

Get to level 80 first before worrying about making money

stable hinge
#

what level do I need to be?

slate arrow
#

80

stable hinge
#

Ok thanks

#

how good is the money for armourer role

real valley
#

@quick quartz Did you ping me? lol

slate arrow
#

entirely depends on the supply and demand

fresh lodge
#

Good on release of an even numbered patch

#

Ok after that

lime sphinx
#

aether current in asah

bronze sorrel
#

Isn't that on the top of one of the columns

lime sphinx
#

yea but how do we reach it lo

bronze sorrel
#

There should be stairs around the back

warped nest
#

Where is this again?

lime sphinx
#

no stairs

#

Churning mists

bronze sorrel
#

Can you jump from a higher place

warped nest
#

/\

lime sphinx
#

no its on the highest tower

#

its sooooo high

warped nest
#

Are you sure it is on the top?

slate arrow
#

There's probably stairs you don't see

#

Or it might be inside or under

lime sphinx
#

under is not reachable

slate arrow
#

There's a dumb amount of verticality in HW maps

warped nest
#

Have you Google "FFXIV churning mist aether current"?

lime sphinx
#

cant go inside lol

warped nest
#

Or looked in youtube

lime sphinx
#

well i have the coords

warped nest
#

So, haven't look at YouTube?

fringe inlet
#

?

lime sphinx
#

lmao its not there

#

i truly dont remember taking it

#

well guess i'm just rarted

warped nest
#

Then that's not the one you are missing

#

Why aren't you using your compass?

lime sphinx
#

?

#

i'm using the coords

#

and idk where the compass is

fringe inlet
#

In your key items

#

Its a literal compass

lime sphinx
#

omfg

#

i forgot about that inventory slot

#

because

#

we literally

quick quartz
#

NA player can play on EU servers, but if you're on an NA server then you can't play with EU servers
@fresh lodge Wait what??

lime sphinx
#

NEVER use that tab

fringe inlet
#

Yes

#

Yes we do

lime sphinx
#

well i never did

fringe inlet
#

Thats where quest items go

quick quartz
#

@real valley technically yes. what level are you btw?

fringe inlet
#

Anything custom you hand in or use

lime sphinx
#

yea but i dont just look at them for fun, quest usually take them

fringe inlet
#

Is stored there

warped nest
#

@quick quartz physical location doesn't forbid you from playing in NA/EU/JP server

lime sphinx
#

or open the tab automaticallky

warped nest
#

That's what it meant

vagrant copper
#

@quick quartz When you start the game up, you pick a data center. They're based in NA, EU, and JP. Whichever data center you pick, you're stuck in (unless you pay to change). You can play with other people on the same data center.

fresh lodge
#

What do you mean what?

quick quartz
#

Lost explained what you said better I got confused is all not big deal.

#

@real valley also what you main?

real valley
#

It's because Meara meant EU players at the end

#

not servers

#

and I main RDM but I have everything capped

quick quartz
#

.......

#

YOUR LITERALLY EXACTLY WHO I NEED!

real valley
#

fear

quick quartz
#

what are the odds seriously did not think u even PLAYED this!

#

pfft I fear no woman but Tifa.

real valley
#

lol

real valley
#

If you want to ask some questions, feel free! But if you wanted to talk to me directly about stuff we should probably take it to DMs or another channel since this one is mainly for questions and stuff.

quick quartz
#

you missed it but.

#

I been here for 2 weeks asking questions before I bought game

#

primarily about monk and red mage

#

or

#

Tifa and Red 13

#

so you showing up AS THE GAME dl's is just perfect timing

real valley
#

lol

slate arrow
real valley
#

yee, that too

mossy current
#

^

quick quartz
#

the current question I have is about Job Jobs.

real valley
#

The people here will know much more about balance and stuff than I would

quick quartz
#

which I think I need a beter name for.

#

like what is something liek smith or materia crafter called in game?

mossy current
#

Specialized places for specialized questions

real valley
#

There's classes, which are the basic starter ones

quick quartz
#

i know it's not job job

real valley
#

And then jobs which kind of extend from those

mossy current
#

Crafters? melders?

#

You'd call them that

quick quartz
#

yes like that are they only called by their profession in game?

slate arrow
#

The base class is called a class

quick quartz
#

ok was curious.

#

oh ok

slate arrow
#

jobs are called jobs

real valley
#

Yeah - There's a group collectively called "Crafters", but each individual one is Blacksmith, Armorer, Weaver, etc

quick quartz
#

do you get to pick those or is it pre determined because I think I want to make materia or maybe weapons but you guys all imply that story weapons are all you need so...>.>

mossy current
#

Each interact, so its recommend to level all at the same pace

real valley
#

FFXIV gives you choice on pretty much everything

slate arrow
#

You can do everything

quick quartz
#

can I dual cast as a non red mage?

mossy current
#

If you pick just one, prepare to spend a lot of gil

#

No

slate arrow
#

no

real valley
mossy current
#

It's a job trait

slate arrow
#

Each jobs has specific traits and actions tied to it to keep it finely balanced

little swift
#

job specific gimmick

quick quartz
#

Imma dula cast ludacris levels.

#

oh it's tied to Red?

slate arrow
#

yes

little swift
#

yeah

fresh lodge
#

You get no bonuses for levelling multiple jobs

real valley
#

well

mossy current
#

!trait Dualcast

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Dualcast** : lvl 1 RDM

Grants the effect of Dualcast upon casting any spell with a cast time. While under the effect of Dualcast, your next spell will require no time to cast. Effect is canceled upon execution of any action other than an ability. Auto-attacks do not cancel effect.

fresh lodge
#

Everything is locked to the actual job

real valley
#

You get an armory bonus to level up lower leveled classes by having a higher one but that's it

slate arrow
#

I mean if you want dualcast on alt jobs you could play FF11

quick quartz
#

I feel like if I played FF11 I'd purposley quit and get into 14

slate arrow
#

cross class abilities were removed in stormblood because there was too much spagetti needed to maintain them and players have shown they will do as much as they can to avoid responsibilities to Maximize DPS so cross class became role actions so every job have what they need for specific situations

real valley
#

Anyhow, I gotta get back to work but the lovely people here are more than enough help :3 If you need something though, feel free to drop me a DM, Zax. finger_guns

mossy current
#

Good luck!

real valley
#

tyty o/

fresh lodge
#

Ok

#

Enough with the gif posting

quick quartz
#

alright so the crafting jobs, is there one in particular that's better to use at different in game levels or is their one that's had an advantage liek say farming gil?

#

I feel like you did that just cuz it was N'sync though not gonna lie.

fresh lodge
#

No, I did it because it clogs up the chat

quick quartz
#

How do you clog an endless text stream? I was joking but now I think that IS why you did it.titangrin

slate arrow
#

if you want to craft it's recommended you level up all the crafts

quick quartz
#

not mad but is funny.

#

all?

#

crap.

slate arrow
#

for example, armorer uses materials from up to 3 other crafters

fresh lodge
#

If you could stop fighting me on everything that would be nice

slate arrow
#

Don't try to argue with the moderators, please.

quick quartz
#

I haven't had a reason to fight you since I met you, i've actually enjoyed all the things that go down in the chat.

#

I'm not fighting him.

#

i get nothing but gucci adv in this chat.

quick quartz

it almost feels lile I'm playing EU DFO.

#

but I guess that one is too old to be remebered.

slate arrow
#

The only crafter which doesn't need materials from other jobs is culinarian

quick quartz
#

ok so which crafter thingy is good for gil?

slate arrow
#

yes

#

entirely depends on supply and demand

quick quartz
#

Culinarian, is that the ACTUAL definition for that?

slate arrow
#

no definite answer

quick quartz
#

always thought it was culinary artist..

fresh lodge
#

Depends on your server's economy

quick quartz
#

ahh.

fresh lodge
#

Though Alchemist and Culinarian are a constant source of income

hearty orbit
#

what is a good server to pick

slate arrow
#

local datacenter > preferred server > regular server

whole wasp
#

a preferred server in a datacenter near where you live for ping and exp is pretty good

!faq checkping

zinc orbitBOT

Q: How do i check my ping to the servers?
Info
  1. Open CMD (Windows key + R, Type CMD and hit enter)
  2. Type: ping -n 20 [Datacenter ip address] without the brackets
  3. Press enter
    PD: To check your Datacenter IP adress go to https://arrstatus.com/
little swift
#

@white sinew

slate arrow
#

go to the website and check

wintry chasm
#

Yes

little swift
#

data centers of a continental group have the same ip because they're from the same location

wintry chasm
#

Well

#

I think not Japan

little swift
#

adsthink yeh i think you're right they vary by like 1 digit

#

same with na

urban pewter
#

Looking for someone who knows the lore of the game really well. Please.

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a limited edition Emote in the game rn? I mean not available to attain no matter what?

wintry chasm
#

No?

mossy current
#

Most things go up to mogstation a year after it's public release

leaden ginkgo
#

Im seeing that emote is the most favorite part of the game od some people

wintry chasm
#

There are these super expensive amazing looking statues that come with unique emotes that are certainly the hardest to get but that's it

leaden ginkgo
#

Ooooooh, so their market comes with their commemorative stuff

#

Not bad, atleast RMT is very much non existent. Thanks for telling me!

slate arrow
#

the players literally begged the FFXIV team for the current version of Mogstation. Previous verions of Mogstation had limits on some stuff, like how much Fantasia you could order per character.

remote sage
#

Question, how do you make the fancy text macros lmao
I wanna do something for Eureka, like NM train is on its way. Current NM is <enemy> at this <loc>

mossy current
#

Current NM is <t> at <pos>

Translation: Current NM is (targeted object) at (your current location)

#

Or NM prep target

remote sage
#

Is there a way I can get fancy letters lmao

mossy current
#

Not sure

remote sage
#

Like bubble letters, or boxes

mossy current
#

Am on Ps4

remote sage
#

I see some people with those

lethal mural
#

how do i get glamour prisms?

#

I just have clear prisms

mossy current
#

Grand Company or Market Board

lethal mural
#

thank you

mossy current
#

GC is highly more recommend

#

But MB is an option

lethal mural
#

you have to be a certain rank right?

#

like sergeant i believe

mossy current
#

Aye

little swift
#

correct

mossy current
#

Around there

lethal mural
#

how do you level your rank?

mossy current
#

GC seals at first

#

Then GC hunting log

little swift
#

you can rank up with the prerequisite number of seals

#

talk to your GC Quartermaster

#

sometimes they have additional requirements

#

such as completion of certain ranks of your GC Hunting log or completion of certain dungeons

leaden ginkgo
#

Once you get second lieutenant you need to do squadrons up to level 40

#

I think its lieutenant

mossy current
#

Second Lieutenant, yes

#

See many people on that step

leaden ginkgo
#

Anyway

little swift
leaden ginkgo
#

Of the 3 ranged dps which is the busiest

little swift
#

here's a link to what is needed to rank up and what it unlocks

leaden ginkgo
#

I am swapping from mnk to a range

#

I'm looking to try brd again because I definitely gave up on it too quickly

#

But also i wanna play something busy

mossy current
#

Bard is slow until 50-60

#

It gets busier later on

#

But I'm not sure about it's apm compared to mch

leaden ginkgo
#

I already have him at 50 so hmm

#

Wouldnt be much leveling

slate arrow
#

BRD is much more random in comparison to MCH for APM

#

because 🎵 rng 🎵

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm okay with that

#

Okay I'll try bard again

twilit arch
#

mch is definitely the busiest imo at 80

#

especially during a wildfire window

leaden ginkgo
#

I see

#

Eventually I'll get them all to 80 cause completionism

remote lintel
#

wait I thought I could do flare twice and then b3 but aspect mastery doesn't apply to flare?

twilit arch
#

you can flare twice at 72, but it requires you to have an umbral heart

slate arrow
#

freeze grants you an umbral heart at 68

remote lintel
#

yeah

#

but if I do flare twice I'll have 0 mp

slate arrow
#

!trait Aspect Mastery

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Aspect Mastery** : lvl 72 BLM

Accumulating full stacks of either Astral Fire or Umbral Ice then casting a spell of the opposite element will consume no MP.
Effect does not apply to Flare.

twilit arch
#

Yeah

#

then you cast blizzard 3

#

for no mp

remote lintel
#

"effect does not apply to flare"

twilit arch
#

because of aspect mastery

slate arrow
#

flare will still consume MP

#

blizzard 3 does not

#

*when at full stacks of astral fire

#

*and freeze, by extention

remote lintel
#

🤔

slate arrow
#

so when you're in Umbral Ice 3, Flare will still consume MP

remote lintel
#

oh it still works

#

weird

slate arrow
#

I don't know why flare is the exception. Would make life miles easier if you could just mash flare 3 times instead of having to cast fire3 once

remote lintel
#

oh I interpreted it wrong

#

that's why

quick quartz
#

ok ps4 is done, btw is ps4 server region locked or no??

#

anyone know timing on leviathan

#

for the team wipe

quick quartz
#

for a hot second thought you meant FF7 cuz that one does the SAME thing lol.

#

That aside hey is there a stat list or stat wiki online anywhere for the races?

#

I know you guys said it a billion times race is not important but I want to see the stats anyway.

hard elk
#

i started samurai lvl 50 and i got a few skills

#

but is dunno how to use it

#

is there like a tutorial?

quick quartz
#

also what's a recruiter code?

little swift
#

@hard elk i suggest heading over to striking dummy and taking all the skills off

#

putting them back on one at a time

#

after reading their tool tips and seeing what they do

#

basically to give you a small primer you have 3 branches of combos

#

2 of which will give oyu a buff

#

but each one when completed will give you a resource called SEN

lethal mural
#

anyone?

#

leviathan wipe

little swift
#

sen allows you to perform iaijutsu attacks

#

how many sen you consume indicates the ability used

#

on leviathan the 50 trial?

mossy current
#

After you kill the bubbles, go straight to the machine and prepare to use it

little swift
#

its about 38%

#

can vary based on dps

hard elk
#

okay thank you

little swift
#

but after bubbles yes

hard elk
#

are there nearby dummies on uldah

mossy current
#

Western....?

little swift
#

you can head into the housing area and find someones house who has a dummy

#

but yes one of the exits leads to an area nearby with a dummy as well

#

can't remember which one either

mossy current
#

Or summerford

twilit arch
#

western thanalan, yes

#

at scorpion crossing

little swift
#

or summerford in la noscea

hard elk
#

okay thank you guys!

little swift
#

also what's a recruiter code?
@quick quartz recruitment codes are codes that can be entered by a recruitee and it gives the recruiter rewards

quick quartz
#

thank you.

little swift
#

the recruitee has to input the code prior to making their first subscription

hard elk
#

is this the same when i start astrologian?

quick quartz
#

now what about race stat stuff?

hard elk
#

i need to learn 1 by 1?

little swift
#

and they'll both get rewards the longer they sub

#

astrologian will have fewer starting skills

#

since it begins at lvl30

hard elk
#

ahh i see

little swift
#

but it would probably be to your benefit to do something similar

mossy current
#

@quick quartz race stats are uselss

#

Don't mind them

marble drift
#

the gap in racial stats is like...2-3

#

at 80 you're liable to have 4000 of that stat

little swift
#

1 to 2 points in the grand scheme of things

#

is nothing

#

it won't be the make or break that puts you in another stat tier usually

tidal remnant
#

is it possible to resize things such as the Logs?

marble drift
#

right clicking the window should pop up with a resize window option

#

if you're on console, no clue what the command is

tidal remnant
#

oh! that is true, thank you so much!

#

Leveling from 50 to 60 which is faster potd or dungeons as dps

hard elk
#

@little swift is Second Wind worth it with only 500 cure potency only?

leaden ginkgo
#

I dont wanna buy ironworks

#

@hard elk it's a role action

#

You're given it

#

Use it If needed

wintry chasm
#

Sometimes it stops you from dying

marble drift
#

its also off gcd

little swift
#

its a role action keep it on your bar it can be used

marble drift
#

iirc

twilit arch
#

generally, potd is probably going to be faster since dungeon queues are usually 15+mins

leaden ginkgo
#

Put it on your hot bar

hard elk
#

i see

wintry chasm
#

Might as well use it when you can.

stuck oracle
#

second wind is an emergency heal

little swift
#

to make your healer's job easier

wintry chasm
#

You don't lose anything from using second wind

stuck oracle
#

never a bad thing to have it

twilit arch
#

but if dungeon queues are quicker, then you should do dungeons

leaden ginkgo
#

Potd

hard elk
#

okay thanks!!

gilded timber
leaden ginkgo
#

I dont wanna spend poetics on

#

Ironworks

#

I'll just save my poetics till 70

stuck oracle
#

if you don't wanna you can just try to farm out dungeons

twilit arch
#

you also get 1 piece of gear (assured) from the leveling dungeons when you run it

leaden ginkgo
#

True

#

Time for some 7 am potd

How does the roulette exp thing work? Does it give exp relative to your level?

twilit arch
#

for leveling roulette, the exp bonus scales

stuck oracle
#

i've got a question about how dmg buffs work, so like if i have an ability that gives me 20% increased damage and another that gives me 5%, does it only affect your base damage or is there an order i can use them in to maximise dmg?

twilit arch
#

in regards to your lv and the dungeon lvl

#

so if you get something like sastasha, and youre 70, you're going to get a bigger bonus because of the difference

#

to make up for the fact the dungeon mobs aren't giving you much exp

timid pivot
#

Ah, okay.

#

So, higher level player in lower level dungeon gets more out of the experience.

#

Good to know, thanks

#

Will it always give you enough to go up one level?

marble drift
#

no

twilit arch
#

no

quick quartz
#

@little swift ok welp what does put you in new stat tier, weapon dmg or materia boost up?

Also so I take it no one k ows if ps4 servers are region locked?

little swift
#

usually materia melds you put into your gear will give you enough points to break into the next tier

#

!faq stats

zinc orbitBOT
little swift
#

not something you should be worrying about at the moment until you hit lvl80 and are trying to bump your ilvl and gear up

#

other than that higher item level gear will provide more stats which in turn will push your stats to the next interval

#

keeping in mind your lvl range will have intervals different from the lv80 ones

#

you should be able to play in whatever server regardless of region

#

since pc/ps4 crossplay is a thing

marble drift
#

yes the region of your account does not affect who you can play with.

little swift
#

just make sure you purchase your copy of the game from the correct region that your square enix account is from

marble drift
#

^ yeah that is what matters

#

registered your account as NA? buy an NA copy. Be careful when purchasing.

#

Does SCH and SMN share the same lvl 50 stoneworks gear?

little swift
#

no

#

scholar uses healing gear

#

summoner uses casting

cunning palm
#

can i add a friend from different server?

quick quartz
#

Thank you.

#

Is there a job job that makes materia or weapons armor food only?

little swift
#

@cunning palm if they are within the same data center you can add them

#

@quick quartz materia is made when you spiritbond your equipment to 100%

#

you can then right click the piece > extract materia

#

and it resets the spiritbond back to 1%

#

and gives you a random materia of the levelof the gear

#

weapon crafter would generally be blacksmith/carpenter/alchemist

#

armor would be weaver/leatherworker/armorer

#

food would be culinarian

#

keep in mind most crafts require materials that can be made by other craft jobs

cunning palm
#

so if my friend is in Elemental's atomos and im in Elemental's tonsberry i can add him?

vagrant copper
#

Yes

little swift
#

thats correct
