no i get that, but some of these gear sets aren't immediately clear which classes they're for, such as the Flame Lieutenant's

So I am downloading the DLCs, but for some reason the download speed is atrocious. I do not know what is the reason, as my internet speed is the same as usual, and no one is using it besides me. The download speed I get from the launcher is 900 kb on average, with momentary drops to 500 kb. Any idea whats up with this? or is it somehow limited and this is normal?
alpine shadow
Did you download the launcher from the correct region?
supple gorge
yes

if so, idk, might the server downloads a bit slow. but usually i have a 30MBps with a 500/500mbps network
hybrid jasper
hmm- is there any way for me to test whats good "comfort" for piety
supple gorge
ah, I see. Well, I am from Europe, so I have a launcher for Europe. I play on American server, but that should not have any effect on this? I think
keen fable
if you're downloading the american launcher then you're going to have issues
alpine shadow
No effect.

Okay I'm losing my mind. I can't find the Parrock. Do you have to unlock it somehow?
keen fable
Oh wait, that wouldnt make any sense
disregard what i said
i dont know
have you restarted your modem?

alpine shadow
what speed do you pay for?
supple gorge
I was wondering if there is some limitation of the launcher or something
keen fable
what do you usually get
supple gorge
usually around 2.5 mb/s. And a bit ago I tried a steam download for a bit, and it is 2.5 as usual
devout salmon
Generally all launchers have a throttle point. No matter how fast your speed is, you can only download as fast as they allow you to.
alpine shadow
This launcher does not have a throttle
supple gorge
guess I will just have to wait ๐ but damn, 10 hours during which I can barely use my internet ๐
hot eagle
hmm- is there any way for me to test whats good "comfort" for piety
@hybrid jasper hard to say since comfort is for everyone something else, maybe you should check out the balance discord
alpine shadow
if you go on speedtest.net, how much do you get?
hot eagle
!faq balance
zinc orbitBOT
supple gorge
let me check
keen fable
if you normally install on an ssd, and you're downloading to an hdd, sometimes hdds don't write fast enough to keep up with download
if you have a particularly bad one
hybrid jasper
@hot eagle true ... just wnana know maybe whats a good number to start off since i just reached 80 not long ago, thanks for the great advice !
alpine shadow
a 5400rpm hdd, should do 75mbps

mbps or MBps
alpine shadow
oh yeah, thats kinda slow

@devout salmon in case you haven't found the parrock yet its in the top left corner of the sea of clouds map
alpine shadow
if you divide it by 8, you will get that number you have in the launcher
little swift
Need to do a bit of the 60alliance raid to see it though iirc
supple gorge
if I divide it by 8, I should have nearly 2
devout salmon
@little swift I went up there but I didn't see anything. I am trying to find Leofard for the Redbill quest.
supple gorge
I am getting barely a half of that
little swift
Which quest?
devout salmon
A Redbill Farewell
alpine shadow
yeah, speedtest.net only shows speed upto your nearest datacenter, and not the nearest ffxiv download
little swift
You need to do all the prerequisite quests first
devout salmon
I assume the quest starts in another location and moves here eventually but I am having trouble finding them.

he still should be getting close to 2

I hope that its showing all of it though. Imagine if this downloaded ended and it was just a part of it XD

keen fable
yea no its everything
agile laurel
To check, is there a way to change the colour of smn's bahamut? or is that something that displays clientside for different players

though, it downloads in packets, so if you cancel, it might appear you start all over again, but the bar just starts over, but the size is from when you cancelled your last packet.

like how you would download a new patch, it just starts over.
devout salmon
@leaden ginkgo Thank you.

which expansions have you registered?
supple gorge
I only had the base game, and I got the ShB which should include all of the previous one, right? or at least thats how I understood it
alpine shadow
yes.
little swift
Yes
alpine shadow
if you registered shadowbringers, its total download should be 40gb

but it shows 20gb, so i guess you are halfways?

@little swift What's the efficient mining method?

Or your retainer can grab them
If you have the skills you use twelves bounty and giving land

Oh, I have one more question. When I finished the base game, I got a Fantasia potiion as a reward or how its called, it changes appearance from what I heard. I have not used it yet though. My question is, can you change your race with it too?

It's decently fast compared to what most people have but eh
mild ermine
I'm not sure what those are exactly.
potent tapir
Yes, Alex

Alliance raids are physically not possible to finish with 1 player, no matter how high their level is

some questions about crafting, do you start off with Muscle Memory most of the time? and when you use Manipulation do you combine with Waste Not II?
leaden ginkgo
Ok so im level 30
lament geyser
So I've finally unlocked my death knight
However is there any quicker ways to level it besides spamming duty roulette?

@cunning palm depends on the craft
tight spoke
If under 50 then PotD
little swift
Some leading with reflect is better
tight spoke
If under 70 then the SB version
leaden ginkgo
I wish i knew how to tell if I've done all the class quests
wintry chasm
You don't spam roulettes. It's a daily xp bonus @lament geyser
Once you run roulettes for the day you just do highest level leveling dungeon spam (not level 50/60/70 dungeons)
lament geyser
I thought path of the dead only affected levels in path of the dead
little swift
Gives you more dura room
@lament geyser you get an exp reward for clearing sets of 10 floors
wintry chasm
Also Palace of the Dead
tight spoke
Floor 50-60 spam is the fastest way to grind exp at that stage of the game
tight spoke
Pretty sure it's good to 60 actually
little swift
Its good to 61
wintry chasm
You could use it for tanks and healers too
but for tanks and healers it's just better to run highest level dungeons
Palace is the most efficient only for DPS because DPS have long dungeon queue times
and you can get into Palace much faster
Not only that but I'd advise just using dungeons for tanks and healers since Palace doesn't really teach you how to be a good healer or tank
cunning palm
for DoH 60-70 ishgard / submitting collectable which one is easier?
wintry chasm
Ishgard is consistently good to 80 really
and it's just easy to get the materials for it
I'd just keep doing it and custom deliveries and stuff
leaden ginkgo
Where do i go to become a summoner
wintry chasm

lament geyser
So for lv 50 do I need to reach the end of Palace?
cunning palm
because i have trouble getting my ishgard collectability up , thats why i was wondering if submitting collectable would be easier
lament geyser
Like how does levelling in Palace of the dead work?
wintry chasm
you go through palace of the dead
after you clear a set of 10 floors you get actual xp for your job unconnected to palace of the dead
lament geyser
Oh right
wintry chasm
The xp you get actually inside the floors is connected to your level in palace of the dead
the end

Atm my characters level entering is 36

and during that fight, healer also didn't upgrade his gear for some reason
same guy complained lol

Right well...read your skills properly xD

he lectured us both ๐คฃ
wintry chasm
Do you know how bad the healer gear was?
patent citrus
i didn't check, was fine with me because I didn't tank full damage
me and the other dps been taking turn tanking the ifrit
cause tank stance was off
potent tapir
My healer when I was with Dark decided to take a cleave

Ifrit is a low level fight, not like the healer needs gear anyways

quasi canopy
do quests only stay with you on your class/job? can I accept a lvl15 quest on my maurader and complete it on my archanist?

and arcanist is like marauder version of mages class?
potent tapir
Arcanist is a DPS
patent citrus
if i want to be ranged dps
potent tapir
Not a tank
patent citrus
ah true
agile laurel
marauder becomes warrior, a tank
arcanist becomes summoner... and also scholar, ranged dps and healer
they share levels, it's weird
obsidian patio
Yes, because they share the same class of Arcanist.
Theyโre the only job like that.
agile laurel
since XP is technically always attributed to the base class
like, even when marauder becomes warrior all xp earned is technically for marauder
but since arcanist gets 2 jobs and xp is always attributed to arcanist, summoner and scholar share levels
patent citrus
ok so please tell me if this is possible
lv 50 marauder and warrior -> lv 60 dark knight -> lv 70 gunbreaker?
is that the step that i have gone through to become gunbreaker?
since i unlock dark knight at lv 50 and gunbreaker at lv 60
potent tapir
Uh, DRK and GNB aren't dependent on class
patent citrus
or does it have to be lv 60 warrior?
potent tapir
DRK just requires being in HW
harsh nymph
you can unlock gunbreaker in gridania when you're lvl 60
patent citrus
so drk is included in them?
patent citrus
okkk so i can stop playing warrior at lv 50 and change to dark knight
wintry chasm
Yes
patent citrus
get 10 more level and then change to gunbreaker
wintry chasm
no
patent citrus
from lv 1 again???
harsh nymph
when you unlock DRK it's at lvl30
wintry chasm
^
mystic yew
drk starts at level 30, gnb starts at level 60
whole wasp
Dark knight starts at 30 yup
wintry chasm
so you'd need to level it for 30 levels then gunbreaker
patent citrus
okkk then get 30 more level ๐ค
potent tapir
Yeah, it'll also set you back on working on the MSQ for that time
Since you'll have to relevel
mystic yew
so either you level war to 60 and go to gnb, or you level drk from 30 to 60
patent citrus
i'm not sure if it's worthed, maybe just another 10 level of warrior
wintry chasm
up to you Dank
harsh nymph
always fun to try out classes
patent citrus
ok i'll do that
patent citrus
but I can switch to my warrior lv 60 again right? even after i level'd gunbreaker from 60->70?
harsh nymph
yes
wintry chasm
Your warrior won't be level 70 too
harsh nymph
you can have every class in the game on the same character so don't worry about that
wintry chasm
Jobs don't just magically level together because they are the same role. the only jobs that share levels is Summoner and Scholar since they both come from the same class arcanist and jobs just use the class level technically
potent tapir
Every job is unassociated as far as levels are concerned sans Scholar and Summoner
It's just a matter of starting levels
potent tapir
Yeh, cause it's Class -> Job

and then there is a quest after that in Idyllshire called https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Arms_Wide_Open
carmine laurel
Hey winners!! I'm a returning player on a fresh account (could not remember my original log-in for the life of me)... Just wondered how long I have to wear the green leaves above my head? Or is there any way to just turn them off? TIA
rough jolt
I just finished that
wintry chasm
and then that unlocks the first custom delivery NPC Zhloe which you can give 6 items to each week for a bunch of scrips
rough jolt
@wintry chasm
fresh lodge
Until you finish Stormblood and play for 168 hours
wintry chasm
or /nastatus off
rough jolt
@wintry chasm And how do i get these Antiquities? Craft them?
carmine laurel
Okay, thankyou
fresh lodge
It'll come back whenever you log back in though
wintry chasm
You buy the materials for them from the junkmonger in the square to the south west
and then you craft them yeah
and turn in
rough jolt
Thanks
wintry chasm
naturally you want to fill out the collectability bar when crafting them
a common mistake is people will just spam progress and wonder why they can't turn it in
rough jolt
Can i turn them in as many times as i want?
wintry chasm
6 a week
If you unlock a second custom delivery NPC you can do 12 a week but 6 per NPC at max
rough jolt
Could you link me the second NPC?
wintry chasm
There are 3 SB NPCs really and you could do any 3 of them but my preferred next one would be M'naago
First you have to do https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Reach_Long_and_Prosper to unlock the collectable stuff in Rhalgr's reach and then https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/None_Forgotten,_None_Forsaken

Hey all, very fresh to the game and still on the free trial, waiting a bit before I activate my sub. Coming from Guild Wars 2, how do I manage my crafting mats? I'm trying out CUL and the amount of random ingredients in my bags are eating up my bagspace.
wintry chasm
CUL is pretty mean in that regard
a lot of the CUL materials is really easy to get/cheap so if I don't need it immediately I tend to just throw it out.
If you don't want to do that then on the free trial there isn't much you can do
but when you get to the full game you can get retainers which act as you bank really
system settings
then cutscene audio to japanese
flat hemlock
I take it as if I can buy it from a merchant then I should throw it out then?
zinc orbitBOT
potent tapir
Usually, as Cal says
wintry chasm
Suuuuper cheap
potent tapir
Depends on how expensive it is to buy from a merchant
wintry chasm
mmmm
potent tapir
Like if it's a couple grand and you're poor. Might be worth holding onto.
potent tapir
Oh, yeah, free trials stuff is all just dirt cheap
wintry chasm
even for a new player
flat hemlock
I see. Thanks a lot both of ya :)
wintry chasm
Np
potent tapir
Actually, at the rate that dirt is going in price
Dirt might be more expensive than ARR stuff
wintry chasm
Baka plz

drifting burrow
hi! i'm a level 64 weaver, but i don't know how to get yellow crafters' scrips;; can someone tell me how i can get some?
stark delta
Can you que potd from anywhere or do you have to be near the woody guy
humble birch
Are the duty roulette levelling rewards daily?
like you complete it once and you have to wait for reset?
drifting burrow
you have to be near the woody guy @stark delta
^ qualifies for everyone in your party
they just have to be in the same city
cunning palm
@drifting burrow literally craft collectable and submit them
cunning palm
they sit together, one is named collectable apprasier , one named scrip exchange
you press CTRL + U
cunning palm
the third one Rowena's House of Splendors
then you get to see all
yh major cities
drifting burrow
thank you so much^^
celest bison
can anyone pls help me with lodestone login issue? i cant seem to log into Lodestone even tho im not in game rn nor free trial user. i typed my email, username, password correctly serveral times already and even clicked "not a robot". nothing worked.
drifting burrow
oh my friend's having that problem too :(
celest bison
i mean its odd cuz im able to log in game and Mogstation, but not on their Lodestone website
slate arrow
you need a character to use the full lodestone
drifting burrow
is there any purpose for the soul of the crafter? or is it just aesthetics
celest bison
wdym? i have a character
slate arrow
trial or full
celest bison
full
drifting burrow
what does this little box icon mean?
leaden ginkgo
Piety (until comfortable) โบ Spell Speed (until 1015) โบ Critical Hit โบ Direct Hit โบ Determination โบ Spell Speed```
@twilit arch
is this true for
summoner
piety is not obv
what is summoner stat priority
drifting burrow
is there something in specific i should do to that item that'll make it a collectible? because it doesn't seem to be accepting it :c
slate arrow
You have to make or gather with the collector's Glove on
merry bluff
Yo guys, can someone explain how to get the most out of the leatherworker job?
Currently level 25 ish, but I'm finding it's costing me a ton of money to source materials.
I doubt using the retainers properly but I also doubt I'm making good enough equipment to even bother selling.
celest bison
yes @slate arrow
leaden ginkgo
@merry bluff u can farm materials
very ez when ur main is at high lvl
u can just one shot everything
slate arrow
@merry bluff get it to level 80 first if you want to actually make money
that too
you can get some materials from your grand company but the vast majority of monster materials will be off the marketboard
merry bluff
Ahh so it's pointless doing the hand jobs under level 80?
slate arrow
no, but it's harder
merry bluff
Riiight, well I don't mind waiting. I'm basically losing money in the class rn haha
leaden ginkgo
@leaden ginkgo crit > dhit > det
@slate arrow so spell speed is behind crit > dhit > det for summoner? seems odd but ok
slate arrow
oh well spell speed to tier first but general rule of hand for almost all jobs is
SpS/SkS to comfy > crit > dhit > det
leaden ginkgo
idk what that means
celest bison
spS = spell speed
leaden ginkgo
no I mean
leaden ginkgo
idk what confy is
slate arrow
exactly what it says on the tin
leaden ginkgo
tin?
slate arrow
skill or spell speed to a comfortable GCD
celest bison
anyways yes @slate arrow , character already linked to the account and verified long time ago
leaden ginkgo
how do I know what's a comfortable GCD
leaden ginkgo
im lvl 50 btw 
slate arrow
you can get away with low to no spS as a SMN
well wtf are you doing worrying about substats at level 50
slate arrow
until you're level 80 item level is king
and any materia you get below level 80 is practically worthless
solemn delta
Trying to buy powder for my second relic and auriana doesn't seem to have them?
solemn delta
Thavnarian
slate arrow
you can't directly buy it, but you need umbrite to make treated crystal sand
oh you mean resistance
it's under special arms
leaden ginkgo
so I should put in crit materia
leaden ginkgo
yes I saw that
but then you said
"get your spell speed to comfy"
which confuses me
slate arrow
SMN doesn't really benefit from SpS
according to Akh Morning
it's entirely optional.
leaden ginkgo
that entire website is for SMN?
icy quiver
Hi, if I select trials I did will I get exp and rewards? In roluteee I get the amount is written
slate arrow
Are you asking about Trial Roulette?
icy quiver
nope
I aisk if I try enter to trial without Roulette
slate arrow
Trials by themselves don't grant rewards. Maybe a little EXP on kill, but nothing significant.
Oh, and level 50/60/70/80 trials do grant a few tomestones.
icy quiver
And the Trial Roulette only worth doing once per day? (If I need to level my chars?)
slate arrow
yes.
solemn delta
Even the trials are a bit meh but there quick. At 79 I was getting just over 1m/37m
icy quiver
1m for each trial?
solemn delta
Yes but I was level 79, and roulette yes
icy quiver
with daily reward or without?
solemn delta
I got 11m for levelling
icy quiver
oh, so If I want to leveling I should do Dungeon Roulette?
icy quiver
all roulettes only worth once per day?
icy quiver
So what I should do for leveling?
slate arrow
Personally, I only do Leveling, Trials, Normal Raid, and Alliance Raid
leaden ginkgo
I leveled twice from a roulette but i am only 32 lol
slate arrow
MSQ roulette does give a significant portion, but it does have a 30 minute minimum per run.
and 50/60/70 roulette does give a little bit, but not a lot since it's meant to be running old endgame dungeons.
slate arrow
!faq altlvlguide
celest bison
i tend to uh
zinc orbitBOT
leaden ginkgo
Oooooh baby im about to become a summoner
slate arrow
tl;dr highest level dungon, squadrons, Palace of the Dead, Heaven on High, or Trusts
celest bison
do msq (prae) dungeon
and
eat
(pls dont take my horrible lazy advice on leveling up classes)
icy quiver
Highest dungeons with roulettes or just select them?
celest bison
i just uh click Prae cuz its longest dungeon but gives more exp than CM
slate arrow
Never roulettes once you do the daily.
icy quiver
I am still doing MSQ but every time I get stuck at level behined
slate arrow
Never, ever, spam the Leveling Roulette.
icy quiver
Dungeons good because mobs give exp?
slate arrow
Actually, it's the final boss who gives good EXP
but you have to run through the entire dungeon anyways so
zinc orbitBOT
slate arrow
it adds up.
icy quiver
Thanks a alot for the tips!
forest lark
Lol is it me or hyurs run way slower than say miqo te (which is the last race I played) but its probably just me
slate arrow
all races run at the same speed
icy quiver
Just curious
Which level the ShB classes start?
forest lark
Yeah I know, but it feels like hyur female are slower cause of run animation
open coral
60 for ShB classes.
icy quiver
HW have 1 class and SB have 0 new classes?
forest lark
Hw has dark knight, astro and red mage?
open coral
HW has three, DRK, AST, and MCH
open coral
SB has SAM and RDM
slate arrow
No new classes are introduced in the expansions.
forest lark
Dont listen to me
slate arrow
They automatically come as jobs.
icy quiver
oh thanks
why Blue Mage is say limited job?
slate arrow
Only to level 60, and doesn't come with any skills by default.
forest lark
We dontbtalk about blue mage
slate arrow
You have to run around the open world and dungeons to learn new skills.
open coral
BLU cannot be used for roulette-type content. They can only run instances in premade groups.
open coral
BLU is a meme job.
icy quiver
they plan to make it full class?
open coral
Basically.
slate arrow
no
open coral
No, BLU will never change from its current form.
forest lark
I like blu weapon tho
open coral
Based on the current treatment, it will get a 10 level max level increase every expansion, and more spells will be made available for that level range.
slate arrow
*as well as some QoL
forest lark
When was blu introduced?
slate arrow
4.4 or thereabouts
open coral
BLU was introduced at the end of SB
slate arrow
4.5 i think actually
forest lark
Ohh I thoughtbits been ther since beginning
slate arrow
It's also the only expansion job to be considered A Realm Reborn content and start at level 1.
patent citrus
twin adder, malestorm or immortal flame?
patent citrus
any pros and cons? im going to level warrior to lv 60 and become gun breaker
slate arrow
no difference between the 3 besides location and colors.
open coral
Your GC selection has no impact on gameplay whatsoever.
slate arrow
Ul'Dah has the most convenient one, right next to the aetheryte
icy quiver
thanks a lot for answers!
open coral
And after a certain rank you can also change between GCs
open coral
Isn't the Limsa one also right by the Aetheryte?
slate arrow
a mini one
open coral
Oh right, it's by the Aftcastle.
open coral
Uldah is Flame
slate arrow
Immortal Flames
open coral
Gridania is Serpent, and Limsa is Maelstrom
tough wolf
How do I access the Diadem?
open coral
Be level 60, speak to the Diadem airship NPC at the airship dock in Foundation (Ishgard)
slate arrow
Ishgard > Firmament > left side > expedition/airship person
The Diadem NPC at the airship dock no longer offers expeditions
(I think he's been removed or moved into the firmament)
open coral
๐ฎ
slate arrow
yes
hot eagle
old diadem is gone
slate arrow
they lead into each other
hot eagle
need to unlock ishgard restoration for new diadem
it's mostly talking to a few npc's to unlock it
slate arrow
You can basically skip the cutscenes but a lot of NPCs return to speak to you depending on the amount of quests and sidequests done.
tough wolf
Ty :]
oak ice
Not if it says it's only equippable by DRK
slate arrow
Relic armor sucks like that yeah
zinc orbitBOT
empty parrot
For potd progging, do you need the traditional role compositions (dps, tank, healer), or is there an optimal one?
proud willow
as in going to floor 200? you'd want the normal 1/1/2 comp
potent tapir
I'm not sure if you can still use the RDM comp
Since they made some changes to the class when ShB launched
wintry chasm
Either one you want
forest lark
But the onebIm currently doing keeps going on lol what about the second one...? A familiar face forgotten
forest lark
Oh ok then I see
wintry chasm
Yep
leaden ginkgo
also, crystal tower requires I complete all beast tribe quests?
leaden ginkgo
it said I must liberate crystals.
wintry chasm
Yes
But if you read the objectives you'd see it very clearly just asks you to do normal things to do that
wintry chasm
you can queue for the 24-man raid yes with duty finder that's fine
not sure LFR stands for
leaden ginkgo
looking for raid
wintry chasm
Oh
leaden ginkgo
i should collect poetics until lvl 80?
wintry chasm
You'll be doing that anyway Eye
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
just from doing content
but yes poetics is good to have till you until you get past level 70
@patent citrus going to be a mean and say that isn't a question
leaden ginkgo
speaking of tomestones, i just hit 80 and df now showing allegory and phantasmagoria tomestones, should i bet farming them straight away or can i continue doing df on 2nd character?
stuck oracle
poetics are STILL good in case you're doing relic weapons etc
wintry chasm
You definitely want those tomestones to catch up in terms of gear
What I tend to do is do certain roulettes as a level 80 where I feel like tomestones beat xp rewards like the trials roulette and then do the other roulettes as the second job where I think xp beats having the tomestones like leveling roulette
mossy current
tfw I was just looking at those for glam and I can't remember for the life of meeeee
wintry chasm
If you hit the weekly allegory cap you can just do all the roulettes on the 2nd job since there isn't much point doing anything as an 80 @leaden ginkgo
leaden ginkgo
the weekly cap is 450 for both right?
I mean should I be saving all my poetics for lvl 80
nimble rain
I have never used world visit before, but I can visit my friend on Siren from Leviathan right?
mossy current
Just allegory is capped
nimble rain
thank you
mossy current
No
nimble rain
wait
raw solstice
it isn't, unfortunately
nimble rain
oic
mossy current
I got a few friends in Hyperion, but I'm stuck in daddy dragon world
nimble rain
I thought it only restricted like NA can't visit JP and such
leaden ginkgo
raw solstice
at this time it's still just limited to same data center, maybe at some point they open it up to at least region-based instead of dc based, but for now it is what it is
leaden ginkgo
is it possible to do char transfer between data centers?
raw solstice
yeah
world transfer is fine, can go to any dc you'd like
only the world visit is limited to dc
mossy current
From congested to preferred, it's free. Otherwise you must pay.
