if you have access to lvl70 items

lime sphinx

blissful elk

What do the stars mean here?

twilit arch

faint flare

Which stacks with HQ bonus

blissful elk

cunning palm
#

what does the extra donation do after i have completed doman enclave ?

little swift
#

its just free money

lime sphinx
whole wasp
#

Do you buy the materials with scrips.

lime sphinx
#

idk i just unlocked scrips

whole wasp
#

You still have to craft like 50 collectables before you get the tools.

lime sphinx
#

i mainly wanna sell the mats tbh

cunning palm
#

sorry what do you mean free money?

lime sphinx
#

i'm still only 55 botanist/miner

whole wasp
#

They buy your stuff in the enclave at a higher buying price compared to other vendors.

#

So you get "free money"

#

Especially if you have all those allagan pieces thingy.

mossy current
#

At level 55 gatherer you cannot gather or use scrips for any of those items

whole wasp
#

Whose only purpose is to be sold to vendors.

mossy current
#

iirc

lime sphinx
#

well i'm getting yellow scrips and idk what to do with them other than lvl 58 gear

cunning palm
#

ic, thanks

mossy current
#

Focus on leveling and buying gear

whole wasp
#

Buy master recipe books maybe?

mossy current
#

^^^^^

lime sphinx
#

okay, so gear then master books

mossy current
#

Level 60 ones are useful for crafters, or get the regional folklore

bright briar
#

Is there a specific world in aether that is recommended for new players

whole wasp
#

Anyone of them with the star next to it.

#

Preferred is the name.

mossy current
#

Adamantoise in this case

#

Should be preferred

bright briar
#

oh ok thanks if its full should I just wait then or do they mostly stay full

mossy current
#

It's aether dead hours, and they aren't congested, so keep trying I guess

bright briar
#

ok thanks

little swift
#

its adamantoise or siren you pick @bright briar

bright briar
#

thank you

iron oracle
#

can you trade totem for hades mount yet?

mossy current
#

Not yet

#

Possibly in 5.3

random kindle
#

should i do crystal tower quests or progress through msq... is crystal tower good for anything?

mossy current
#

Yes

#

Story and relevance

little swift
#

its story relevant later

mossy current
#

And unlocks the useful Alliance roulette

#

Which gives good exp

little swift
#

and will become mandatory in 5.3

wide island
#

how important is it for me to level a crafting profession you guys? i can't really afford a sub so wanted to quickly (not too quickly don't worry!) get to max level and THEN worry about crafting, but will that screw me over?

mossy current
#

Not too important, what's important is that you're having fun

#

^-^

wide island
#

okay then thank you very much ๐Ÿ™‚

#

just what i wanted to hear LOL

mossy current
#

But crafting is useful, so I say look into it if interested

buoyant monolith
#

What will happen if I reach 35 on the Trial?

mossy current
#

Level caps

#

Can't get any exp on that job from then on

#

You can still swap jobs though

buoyant monolith
#

Hu neat

mossy current
#

Quite the expansive trial, so have fun, explore and enjoy the base game jobs

little swift
#

you stop levelling that particular class

buoyant monolith
#

Yep

little swift
#

thats it you can keep playing as much as you want

buoyant monolith
#

Lv 10

little swift
#

that said you also can't go past the lvl35 msq

wintry chasm
#

naturally

buoyant monolith
#

Eh donโ€™t mind it lol

#

On FFXIV companion mobile app, will it still work for the Trial or I need the Subscription to use it

little swift
#

i'm fairly certain a registered/active service account is required to use the companion app

#

at best you can use the app for up to an additional 30days after a sub has expired

buoyant monolith
#

I see

whole wasp
#

should be fine

proud willow
#

I mean... there's no reason they wouldn't look into it

#

they don't know that you're friends

mossy current
#

How large is large though?

#

That's not too bad

little swift
#

thats whatever to be honest

proud willow
#

oh, that's nothing

mossy current
#

Should be fine

little swift
#

1mil is nothing

wispy stag
#

My friend gave me 5mil when I started in NA and havent had anything happen

mossy current
#

I Have a few mil, but I often give people stuff worth a few mill rather than give it to them hehe

#

Anyway, yea it's fine

wispy stag
#

Save it

mossy current
#

RMT deals in much larger amounts

wispy stag
#

You will get lots of gil while leveling and you will also learn what is worth spending on as you learn the game

#

Only suggestion would be meals or something

mossy current
twilit arch
#

Anyway

queen cove
#

honestly, dont buy the weapons straight off the mb. Ask around for crafters since they might be able to make it for cheap

#

yeah lol

#

idk how she gets her money tbh

mossy current
#

Anywayyyy

twilit arch
#

so take it there, please

#

no

mossy current
#

No

queen cove
#

Nope

#

Technically you can have 2 wives whos ring teleports them to you, but you have to be the one to discard your ring I believe

#

And your ring will only teleport you to the new one

mossy current
#

People do often marry just for glam/mount

queen cove
#

yeah

mossy current
#

Website for wedding

#

You can get it on mogstation

cunning palm
#

for DoH Precise Touch appears randomly right? Are there any skills that can 100% trigger it?

twilit arch
#

no, there's no way to force a good/excellent proc

mossy current
#

No, but a trait increases the chance

queen cove
#

Its not really apply, you and your partner both grab the item from mogstation and meet up in front of the npc, which gives you a small questchain of praying before the gods and then giving you the option to pick a timeslot

cunning palm
#

what does that mean? like Rapid Synthesis? ( the one that increase progres by 500% success rate 50%)

mossy current
#

You can only use precise touch when the material condition is "good" or higher

cunning palm
#

yes ikr but how do you make it good or higher tho?

#

just rng?

twilit arch
#

its random

#

!trait Quality Assurance

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Quality Assurance** : lvl 63 CRP

Slightly increases chances of material condition becoming Good.

twilit arch
#

this trait increases the chances

mossy current
#

A trait you get via job quests increase the chance ^

twilit arch
#

but there's no way to force a good/excellent

cunning palm
#

aw i see, are there any guides to how to craft? As in the skill rotations, Im at level72 im still not quite sure how to get my collectability as high as possible

twilit arch
#

there's a restoration guide with macros for various leveling ranges

#

can use that to build off of and use teamcraft to figure out rotations

cunning palm
#

okay thanks

remote lintel
#

how do i make a macro that just automatically sends a message when i revive someone

#

like how healers do

twilit arch
#

put /p Text Here below your raise line

#
/p Raising <t>```
proud willow
#

System menu - User Macros is where you go to make macros

twilit arch
#

as example

remote lintel
#

i know where to go i just didn't know how they worked

#

what's the /ac and the /p?

#

the skill?

twilit arch
#

/ac is action

#

/p is for party

remote lintel
#

ah

twilit arch
#

if you also want the macro to have the icon of the raise spell

#

do /micon "action" as the last line

fickle path
#

Im hella new and was wondering if level skip is for level 70 only or if I can buy a skip to 50 and play the story from there

remote lintel
#

i don't have to anything special with the raise skill? just leave it as it is?

proud willow
#

There's a job boost to 70, and a few different story skips

twilit arch
#

You want to use either <t> (for target) or <mo> (for mouseover)

proud willow
#

If you get just a story skip, you'll have to level up on your own before you can start doing more story

fickle path
#

If I get the job boost to 70 will it skip the story as well or I can get that then buy a ARR skip

twilit arch
#

so /ac "Raise" <t> or /ac "Raise" <mo>

proud willow
#

In any case, most people strongly discourage you from getting any kind of skip. It's better to play the game from scratch if you've never played it before

twilit arch
#

job boost only levels you

wispy stag
#

its worth to play ARR story so you know the torment

twilit arch
#

it does not complete the msq for you, so you would need to buy the msq skp as well

remote lintel
#

I'd say getting a level boost is fine if you've already leveled one job to 70 by hand

night canyon
#

Anyone have a good crafting macro generating site other thsn FFIV Crafting Optimizer? Its just giving me macros that fail

whole wasp
#

thats a really old one. only really works for pre-50 crafts

#

you can try the rotations list in teamcraft

little swift
#

the machine learning macro generator doesn't account for useful skills you should definitely try teamcraft instead and fiddle with the simulator

trail current
#

How many quests are between the credits of ARR and HW? I've been doing em all day and still haven't gotten there.

twilit arch
#

100

trail current
#

Well maybe I'll get it next time

twilit arch
#

what was the last trial/dungeon you did?

trail current
#

The King Cat guy

twilit arch
#

king moogle mog?

trail current
#

Yeah

twilit arch
#

you're basically starting the half way point

remote lintel
#

if I press my macro too fast does it just not register??

#

I had to do it twice for some reason

slate arrow
#

macros do not queue

trail current
#

I've also unlocked Hard mode Rock Titan guy

slate arrow
#

so if a command fails for any reason it wont go through

night canyon
#

okay thanks for the tips guys

#

appreciate it

remote lintel
#

no

trail current
#

It's prolly good if I learn names I think

remote lintel
#

I used swiftcast and then raise immediately after and it put the text in the chat but didn't raise

#

I had to do it again

twilit arch
#

yes, you are now realizing why macros are not recommended

slate arrow
#

you can't press swiftcast and raise at the same time

twilit arch
#

because they're fiddly

slate arrow
#

you need a <wait.1> minimum

night canyon
#

Well, theyre good for what im doiung.

remote lintel
#

ew

night canyon
#

Which is just making skubuilder shit

#

for lvling

twilit arch
#

crafting macros are fine

night canyon
#

To hellwith pressing buttons for 10 hours

#

lol

twilit arch
#

and not what i'm talking about

night canyon
#

Oh sorry

#

I must have missed something

#

My bad Kael.

remote lintel
#

I didn't put swiftcast and raise in the same macro

#

I only have a raise macro

leaden ginkgo
#

do i unlock the dungeons in ShB through MSQ or do i have to go out of my way to find them one by one

night canyon
#

MSQ

leaden ginkgo
#

ty

night canyon
#

Only the alliance raid sits outside the MSQ I think

#

For instanced dungeon content.

cunning palm
#

i dont quite understand, so i completed Doman enclave, who do i sell my things to to get my 200% bonus?

twilit arch
#

basically, if you're going to make a raise macro it should look something like this. that way it goes off

remote lintel
#

wow

slate arrow
#

@cunning palm you need to unlock the Doman Enclave restoration

#

oh you did

#

well you need to wait for them to restock on gil

#

you can only get 40000 of 200% vendor price selling

cunning palm
#

but who do i sell my items to though?

slate arrow
#

the donation basket

cunning palm
#

so basically the term is ''donation'' but actually i am getting my money back?

slate arrow
#

they said that at the beginning

#

yes

cunning palm
#

i see thanks!

bright briar
#

is it a big loss to make a character on a server other then siren or adamantoise as a new player

remote lintel
#

no

twilit arch
#

its not the end of the world, no

bright briar
#

oh ok thanks

solar shore
#

I was hunting for Meteorite for gatherer's and I made sure I used Truth of Mountains to hunt for unspoiled node and I used the app to detect when it should I even heard the notification on my phone

#

but the unspoiled node doesn't seem to appear

broken pasture
#

Did they change or reduce the amount of skills you have in PvP? I went back for the first time in a year and several of my hot bar moves were ? Icons that said they were not in pvp

solar shore
#

for some odd reason anybody have any answers to that maybe?

leaden ginkgo
#

How do you continue with Palace of the Dead? I beat floor 100 and now it says "Cannot continue with this data. Dungeon is cleared"

#

There's 200 floors, right?

twilit arch
#

@broken pasture yes, pvp actions have been changed. use /pvpprofile or click on the character menu button > pvp profile to find them

#

@leaden ginkgo floor 101+ are challenge floors, they aren't intended to be done for leveling. If you want to do those floors, you need to be in a fixed party and not have any wipes starting from floor 51

solar shore
#

None of my unspoiled nodes are popping up for me even though I'm using Truth of Mountains and I'm also level 80 mining but still can't detect them

#

even though my time is perfect too cause I'm using said app to detect them

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah, gotcha! Thank you.

twilit arch
#

@solar shore did you buy and use Tome of Geological Folklore - Abalathia's Spine?

solar shore
#

@twilit arch No I did not

twilit arch
#

because its not a timed node that is naturally unlocked via levels

solar shore
#

It is a timed node

twilit arch
#

Yes that is locked behind the tome

solar shore
#

it can still be in Tome of Geological Folklore righT?

#

ah

#

good to know

#

that takes a long time to a recieve?

#

the Folklore?

twilit arch
#

you need to purchase 5xRowena's Token (Blue Gatherers' Scrip) with yellow scrips

cunning palm
#

is Handking's gear set good enough for ishgard 70-80?

solar shore
#

hmm I'll have to look that up more

#

thank you @twilit arch

twilit arch
#

yeah handking should be fine for the most part, might need food in the later levesl @cunning palm

leaden ginkgo
#

Iโ€™m a new player will I get smited for being bad ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘„๐Ÿ‘

twilit arch
#

no

#

just do your best, and if you're not sure about something in a dungeon, make sure to ask your party about it or you can come ask here

cunning palm
#

this rotation is assuming you can finish the item crafting in 3 Careful Synthesis right?

twilit arch
#

ye

leaden ginkgo
#

Thanks yoo. An odd question though, although Iโ€™ve been playing for like 4 days already, Iโ€™m just now trying to get a recruitment code, any point in it? Aside from the EXP Circlet I saw that you could get rewards but Iโ€™m still on the free 1 month so would it cancel out?

proud willow
#

During the free month is actually the only time you can put in someone's recruitment code

wintry chasm
#

^

#

between the time you get the game properly and before you buy sub time

leaden ginkgo
#

Would r/Ffxivraf be the best place to get a code?

remote lintel
#

u can use mine ๐Ÿ‘€

leaden ginkgo

sure ๐Ÿ˜ณ

remote lintel

desert bone

Is it possible to hire a Viera retainer? The Hrothgar and Viera races are greyed out for me.

do u have shadowbringers?

limber pilot
#

So guys

#

Two questions

#

One, my Arcanist is level 6 right now

#

What would be the best way to level him up to the level of my BLM, who is level 32?

#

Secondly

little swift
#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
limber pilot
#

When can I acquire the fabled

#

Summoner Dong

little swift
#

basically hunting log/fates until you can do dungeons

remote lintel
#

lvl 50 prob?

little swift
#

then spam highest lvl lvling dungeon/ palace of the dead

#

and do your roulettes

#

first summoner dong is 50

wintry chasm
#

^

remote lintel
#

theres more than 1??

wintry chasm
#

Yes

#

summoner dong is a part of their classic appearance

limber pilot
#

Ah yes

wintry chasm
#

I think all their job gear has a summoner dong though the level 70 one is more like a tiara almost

limber pilot
#

I am glad to be in a community

little swift
#

if you would like to take a look at all of them

limber pilot
#

In which Summoner Dong is a common phrase

remote lintel
#

we live in a scoiety

#

sociioety

limber pilot
#

We truly do

muted vortex
#

Hi, i'm a new player currently lvl60 samurai. What should I do with my silver chocobo feathers ?

little swift
#

you can go to the calamity salvager and pick up gear for other classes

hot eagle
#

or get some lvl70 gear for your sam

muted vortex
#

oh i'll do that then, thanks

limber pilot
#

Alright so

#

Assuming I don't have stormblood

#

What is there fore the best way to level

slate arrow
#

roulettes > highest level dungeon > palace of the dead

#

unfortunately you wont be able to go past level 60

remote lintel
#

is there a way to make a ground targeting macro do the thing a set distance away from you

limber pilot
#

Yeah, I know

#

Trying to get Shadowbringers!

bronze sorrel
#

@remote lintel you can do <t> which puts it under your target or <me> which puts it under you

#

But nothing for set distance

twilit arch
#

you still need a target with mo

bronze sorrel
#

Oh do you

remote lintel
#

damn

twilit arch
#

ye

bronze sorrel
#

My b

remote lintel
#

can you use shukuchi on a party member?

#

to go to them

scenic orbit
#

What are adds

slate arrow
#

additional mobs

whole wasp
#

shukuchi is ground targeted

twilit arch
#

uhh i'm not sure if you can shuku to party member, i know you can do it to a mob iirc

scenic orbit
#

So additional groups of monsters

whole wasp
#

you can click on them but thats basically clicking the floor on top of them

remote lintel
twilit arch
#

shukuchi macro is going to be funky

remote lintel
#

it won't let me do it on a mob

twilit arch
#

easier to just use it normally

little swift
#

you can shuku to targets

bronze sorrel
#

I think /ac Shukuchi <2> might work

#

Actually

little swift
#

i can confirm

bronze sorrel
#

But why

whole wasp
#

/ac "Shukuchi" <t> works too

little swift
#

yup

remote lintel
#

so I can

#

interesting

whole wasp
#

if you use it to target a mob with a gigantic circle

#

remember <t> is the exact centre of the circle

#

that means you are losing alot of range on your shukuchi if you just want to drive closer to hit it

remote lintel
#

there's no way to make it so that if I'm not targeting someone it automatically switches to ground targeting

#

smh

whole wasp
#

you can

remote lintel
#

how?

whole wasp
#

/ac"Shukuchi"<t>
/ac "Shukuchi"

#

it will attempt to do the <t> first

#

if it fails, it will do the second line

remote lintel
#

ah

cold crescent
#

how do i get estiniens weapon to go with the drachen set? the gae bolg?

whole wasp
#

although im not sure how it will interact once you get the trait that lets you shukuchi twice

#

gae bolg is ARR relic iirc

#

so you will have to do the A Relic Reborn questline

remote lintel
#

I don't think repeating the command over and over in the macro cancels out the delay

#

or diminishes the delay

whole wasp
#

it doesnt. it helps ensures it goes through

#

its mostly for consistency

#

nothing helps the delay

remote lintel
#

it didn't go thru either

whole wasp
#

since macros cant queue

#

macros are a crapshoot like that

remote lintel
#

I guess I'll just deal with it

whole wasp
#

dont forget you can have multiple buttons for the same skill

#

1 - shukuchi <t> macro
2 - shukuchi normal
3 - shukuchi <2> macro

#

for example

bronze sorrel
#

Repeating the macro doesn't diminish the delay

remote lintel
#

I meant that it doesn't ensure that it goes through either

whole wasp
#

it helps a little bit but thats about it

bronze sorrel
#

Yea macros are generally pretty ass imo

remote lintel
#

damn

bronze sorrel
#

Just manually do it

#

It's just one extra click anw

remote lintel
#

I use controller that's why

hybrid cairn
#

is it much better to do the starred supply/provisioning missions rather than the normal ones at low levels?

remote lintel
#

ground targeting on controller for shukuchi sucks

leaden ginkgo
#

im capped on yellow scrips, whats something good to spend them all on?

whole wasp
#

master recipe books/folklore books

leaden ginkgo
#

what do those do?/

whole wasp
#

chocobo raincoat for gatherer yellow scrips

#

master recipe books unlock the master recipes for crafters

leaden ginkgo
#

oOOOH

whole wasp
#

folklore books unlock some material you cant see otherwise for gatherers

leaden ginkgo
#

tysm!!

#

ah wait i cant buy the master recipes??

whole wasp
#

where are you looking?

leaden ginkgo
whole wasp
#

have you unlocked the eulmore vendors?

leaden ginkgo
#

im guessing no,, jasjdnidsadsa

#

i took a break from this game for a bt i apologise

whole wasp
#

its "The Boutique always Wins" bluequest in Eulmore iirc

#

anyway, you can look at the vendor at Rhalgr's Reach for now

#

or the vendor at Idyllshire

nocturne wasp
#

Is it better to get new gears and weapons by doing all the quests/side quests, or do the shops have better equipment to buy?

whole wasp
#

sidequests sidequest can sometimes have good equipment but msq gives good gear too

#

you can buy from vendors and replace them with dungeon green gear as you level as well

#

but vendor gear is pretty poop

nocturne wasp
#

Is the vendor gear is poo then I won't rely on it

#

Thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

im trying to find the quest to find the boutiqe always wins but i cant find it

nocturne wasp
#

So because I did my class change to conjurer I can now do other quests to become other classes like Botanist, Leatherworker, Lancer, etc.
Is it better to do these sooner or later? I wana focus on Conjurer but am I missing out on anything by not doing these now? Can I miss the chance?

cold crescent
#

where is the gae bolg quest acquired?

hollow vine
#

Anyone mind helping me get my spell from Enkidu?

bright briar
#

do most people buy the 180 days of playtime or just buy it each month

cold crescent
#

whichever you prefer ofc

bright briar
#

oh ight thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

this quest, is says the requirements for this quest is the go west craftsmen sidequest quest but i've already done that, but i cant find this quest??

prob the reddit

cunning palm
#

i can see some people are looking for party, what does joining party do?

#

i mean whats the benefit of it

marble drift
#

party for what?

cunning palm
#

idk, ppl are just looking for party in the chat , thats why i wonder what they for

marble drift
#

if you see a whole bunch of people in your zone shouting "Looking for Party" there is probably a hunt mark in the area.

According to wiki, things that earn FC Credits are:
Activities include but are not limited to, fighting monsters, gathering high quality resources, crafting high quality items, completing guildleves, Grand Company Leves, recruiting new members, undertaking supply and provisioning missions, and Treasure Hunts

#

Is there anything it's missing?

slate arrow
#

not really

#

you can disregard most of them since expert delivery is the fastest way to gain FC credits

tropic summit
#

Ohhhh that's interesting

#

It makes sense, since items can go for thousands a piece but wow

#

That's not even mentioned at all on the wiki haha

#

That should be #1 on that list

warped nest
#

Console game wiki is not very well maintained

#

If you look hard, you can even find gears with obsolete stats like Accuracy or Parry

tropic summit
#

What would you recommend? Gamerescape?

warped nest
#

Gamerescape - wiki
Garlandtools - database stuff
Garland bell - time tracking stuff

little swift
#

anything ARR related is not the worst on consolegameswiki but garland tools/gamerescape much better

#

even teamcraft

tropic summit
#

I use garlandtools and it's amazing for specific items but cgw is where I go right now for broader information

slate arrow
#

don't use consolegameswiki if you can

#

gamerescape is kept much more up to date

warped nest
#

Console game wiki is maintained manually

slate arrow
#

on basically everything

tropic summit
#

I wanted to see what all the things a Free Company is good for, for example so that seems like purely wiki material, right?

warped nest
#

They have slip ups

tropic summit
#

oh god

#

the content is good but wtf is this site

#

that waiting on cloudflare

#

the bloat

twilit arch
#

they've been dealing with ddosers quite a bit

tropic summit

RIP

quasi canopy
#

is there an easy way to tell if my ff14 account is associated with steam? I think I downlaoded the client through there but I might have registered the account via the regular page...

whole wasp
#

you can check on your mogstation

#

for example

gaunt brook
#

So i just finished Shadowbringers but now i cant continue the post shb questline since i need iLvl 430, whats a good way to get that since its just the accessories im missing

whole wasp
quasi canopy
#

@whole wasp Thanks! That worked ๐Ÿ˜„

whole wasp
#

either buy from MB or do the lvl 80 dungeons

gaunt brook
#

ahh goddamnit

whole wasp
#

Amaurout, Twinning, Akademia drops ilvl 430 accessories iirc

gaunt brook
#

i hate amaurot all its given me is healer accessories

whole wasp
#

you can also buy the deepshadow accessories with phanta

gaunt brook
#

like 5 of the 7 things it dropped last time were for healers

whole wasp
#

deepshadow accessories are definitely better tho

twilit arch
#

use whatever phanta you've gotten to buy accessories in eulmore is another option

crimson wind
#

Question for the companion app, how do i use my Kupo Nuts?

gaunt brook
#

yeah ive only got 200ish rn

twilit arch
#

can also unlock eden gate

#

and get accessories from it

gaunt brook
#

oo i might do that too

cold crescent
#

theres a second housing market besides mist, right?

twilit arch
#

there's one in uldah, gridania and kugane

whole wasp
#

goblet, lavender beds, shirogane respectively

cold crescent
#

where are those exactly?

twilit arch
#

goblet's entrance is western thanalan, lavender beds central shroud, and shirogane is thru kugane

whole wasp
#

shirogane have to take a ferry from kugane.

cold crescent
#

aight

#

how much is a large plot of land rn btw

twilit arch
#

!faq housing

zinc orbitBOT
twilit arch
#

first link has the plot prices

gloomy ice
#

I highly doubt that there are any large plots available at present however

cold crescent
#

ahhhh gotcha

#

tyty

#

also how much an apartment room?

twilit arch
#

500k

cold crescent
#

is it just that flat rate?

twilit arch
#

yes

cold crescent
#

coo

#

does every area have apartments available?

whole wasp
#

300k for FC apartment but you lose your aparment if you leave the FC

twilit arch
#

probably have to go thru a ward or two

gloomy ice
#

@crimson wind kupo nuts are the currency used to interact with the market board through the app. Posting an item on market board, adjusting its price, or purchasing an item costs one kupo nut each.

twilit arch
#

but yes, every housing district has apartments

cold crescent
#

i only unlocked mist

#

finna check out the others tyty

hot crane
#

what's the difference between DoH daily quest of gc and leve?

twilit arch
#

gc turn ins are once a day

#

leves are able to be done as many times as you have allowances

hot crane
#

oh

#

which one gives more exp?

slate arrow
#

GC

hot crane
#

thanks

twilit arch
#

you should be doing gc turn ins, or atleast trying to be doing them, every day

slate arrow
#

i mean turn ins give more EXP

#

and they're basically free

#

leves require allowances

hot crane
#

yeah Ive only done gc so far

#

thx!

#

๐Ÿ™‚

buoyant monolith
#

What class you to be to use a War Axe?

leaden ginkgo
#

BLU is only until lvl 60?

solemn delta
#

I can't mind if I asked my FC before or on here but is there a faster way to level my chocobo? It's only rank 5 and killing regular mobs is just unrealistically long grind just to rank 6

gloomy ice
#

@buoyant monolith Marauder, which promotes into Warrior. Itโ€™s the gameโ€™s axe class.

solemn delta
#

But even at 5 healer he's keeping me up during fate boss fights

buoyant monolith
#

I see

solemn delta
#

Doing weeklies but that's not much really

gloomy ice
#

@leaden ginkgo Blue Mage caps are level 60, yes.

leaden ginkgo
#

where do I get carrots for chocobo

mystic yew
#

hi everyone! what is a treasure map and how do i get one

nimble cedar
#

Hey does anyone know how to equip blue mage spell icons for macro icons ? Iโ€™ve read that you can select /micon โ€œblue mage spellโ€ blueaction, but it doesnโ€™t work for anything other than water cannon at the moment

mystic yew
#

i apparently completed the quest in wineport years ago, but i don't remember them at all

buoyant monolith
#

What Level do I have to be to be-able to use Jobs?

mystic yew
#

30 hastrach

#

do your class quests till 30, then you should get your first job quest

buoyant monolith
#

Okey dokey

mystic yew
#

and then don't forget to equip your soul crystal!

gloomy ice
#

@solemn delta Chocobo companions can be fed if you have a stable. Feeding your chocobo is still somewhat slow but it is passive and you donโ€™t really need to think about it. Just need a stable and enough feed, like krakka roots.

warped nest
#

!faq job

zinc orbitBOT
#
How do I unlock my job?
Info

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

warped nest
#

Remember to do your MSQ as well

#

Don't grind a class to lvl 30 to get Job early

gloomy ice
#

@solemn delta @leaden ginkgo and I can tag you both for this one. Krakka roots can be grown in a garden if your FC has one. The seeds are sold at vendors in each housing ward. But itโ€™s perhaps more time efficient to just buy them from MB.

solemn delta
#

I have a FC with a stable but I've no idea how to stable and feed him last time I tried it said I needed to know how to breed or something

hot eagle
#

do the quest for it in South shroud

#

bird in hand is the name iirc

gloomy ice
#

Bird in Hand is the quest name yes but itโ€™s located in Central Shroud near the Bentbranch Meadows aetheryte.

solemn delta
#

So I need that before I can stable

#

Cause I'm gonna be taking a sort of break anyway just logging in for roulettes etc after leveling 3 classes to 80 in 3 weeks bit burnt out lol

#

So stabling would be cool

#

Crap not on home world

#

Lol was red

gloomy ice
#

@mystic yew Treasure maps are found at certain gathering nodes at random. When opened, they give you a small picture of a specific spot on the world map. Once you find that spot, use the Dig command to reveal a treasure chest. Opening the chest will always spawn a few mobs that you must clear before you can unlock the treasure.

tough wolf
#

How would you rate FSH in terms of usefulness for CLN? Essential/Highly Beneficial/Useful/Complimentary? They're the only two DOH/L I have left and I'm just wondering if I should do them together.

gloomy ice
#

Specific types of treasure maps can subsequently open a portal to a special treasure dungeon. The items that can be found inside those portals usually catch very good prices on market board.

solemn delta
#

Yeah my FC has a "map night"

#

Once a week

#

Everyone brings 3 or so along

#

Can be rewarding

tough wolf
#

Are they not solo'able then?

#

I've ignored loads of those maps : (

gloomy ice
#

Individual maps can be but the treasure dungeons can not.

solemn delta
#

I haven't touched any until I had 2 80s so don't worry just try them out now

gloomy ice
#

And as for FSH and CUL, they share a lot, yeah but it isnโ€™t wholly necessary to level both at the same time.

tough wolf
#

Thanks. I'm not short on gil so I think I'd just like to power through CLN (for completion's sake) but take FSH slower. So even though together might be a quick answer I think I'd prefer not to if it can be helped.

gloomy ice
#

FSH is pretty chill, yeah. Iโ€™ve come to appreciate it a lot after hitting cap. Iโ€™ll also say that itโ€™s perhaps the fastest class to level. Havenโ€™t done any math for it but it certainly felt much faster than MIN or BTN. Might just be my own perception.

mystic yew
#

hmmmmm well, how hard is it to level dol?

#

which one is the easiest?

#

i could use the gil haha

gloomy ice
#

Leveling gatherers is incredibly fast these days. With the somewhat recent changes to levequest exp yield and the repurposing of Diadem for Ishgard Restoration, leveling up takes no time at all.

solemn delta
#

Right so I stabled my chocobo and fed him one of the krakka roots and it says training "in 58" minutes. That mean I'm good to go? Train him 3x a day?

gloomy ice
#

Yeah pretty much. Just throw him more roots when you can and thatโ€™s it.

solemn delta
#

Nice. Cause my SAM is almost done and I'm working on squadrons too

leaden ginkgo
#

why does it feel like my squadrons training reset is not the same with the server

#

isn't it the same?

twilit arch
#

its not

gloomy ice
#

Squad training sessions I believe are tied to the general GC/scrip timer yeah

twilit arch
#

it resets with grand company missions

leaden ginkgo
#

Ohh, thanks

robust crow
#

regarding apartments

#

do you have to pay anything per month to keep one

#

and also do you have to fight for a spot like with housing

little swift
#

Nah

#

Its yours once you buy it

gloomy ice
#

Apartments are permanent. Even if you unsub for years, itโ€™ll stay.

robust crow
#

so you don't have to fight for a spot then?

gloomy ice
#

Also each housing ward and subdivision has hundreds of apartments available. There no fighting for space.

twilit arch
#

nope

#

apartments are easy enough for them to add

robust crow
#

so it's just a matter of picking an apartment wherever you want

twilit arch
#

And there's already a lot of them available, so its pretty hard for most servers to run out

robust crow
#

can you move your apartment after buying it?

twilit arch
#

no

#

you'd have to relinquish and rebuy

solemn delta
#

How long until my squadron can do dungeons?

#

I'm training them up 3x today

lone violet
#

What's the point of the armoire if you are gonna use it for glamour plates ?

solemn delta
#

Well 6x after reset, some other missions have popped up

twilit arch
#

the armoire is for specific gear, namely holiday gear and things like veteran rewards @lone violet

lone violet
#

But you have to remove it from the armoire if you are going to use it for glamour plates

twilit arch
#

no you don't

#

there's an option when you're making a plate to change to the armoire

lone violet
#

Oh

twilit arch
#

@solemn delta once your squadron is rank 2 (lvl20+), should be able to start doing dungeons with them

vestal current
#

Hello

solemn delta
#

Cool thanks I'll keep training em

vestal current
#

I'm currently in my first play through and in Coerthas. I'm a bit confused by all the new information dravanians etc ... is there some kind of in game information book on these kinds of things/events ?

twilit arch
#

a lot of the subject thats touched on during the coerthas arc of ARR is dealt with in the expansion, heavensward

warped nest
#

You might get more info by doing side quests in the region

wintry chasm
#

^

warped nest
#

But yeah most of the details come from the Heavensward expansion

wintry chasm
#

Eh

tough wolf
#

Are there any collectables I can farm whilst levelling fishing or does that only come into it at later levels/restoration?

twilit arch
#

outside of diadem, collectables are going to be 50+

tough wolf
#

And in Diadem are there level-appropriate ones throughout my "fishing journey"?

twilit arch
#

with diadem really not being collectables tbh for gathering side

tough wolf
#

Ah ok

#

Thanks : )

twilit arch
#

you're pretty much stuck with 3 pools when you're below a certain lvl

#

53 is when you get cloudfishing and can do the better pools

solemn delta
#

And I can keep training my chocobo every hour? It's not really a rush tbh I have 2 melee dps 80 now so I don't "need" him healing but nice to have

twilit arch
#

ya you can

whole wasp
#

yea training per hour in the chocobo stable.

twilit arch
#

you don't need to keep him in the stable btw

#

unless you're also changing his colour

drifting burrow
#

hi! what's the easiest way to farm for allegory?

solemn delta
#

Expert dungeon once a day for me lol

#

The rest I use for leveling.

drifting burrow
#

:o

twilit arch
#

If you're in a hunt linkshell/discord, hunt trains are a pretty easy and painless way to cap allegory

drifting burrow
#

:o

twilit arch
#

but that said, yeah an expert every day for 5 days will cap you

solemn delta
#

But alliance roulette and msq rouleete give 50 each

drifting burrow
#

do u happen to know and hunt discords ;w;

little swift
#

120 allegory for about 20minutes for a train

warped nest
#

Msq roulette is not worth the effort if your goal is allegory

#

Alliance is not bad

solemn delta
#

No true but like in my friends case he hit 80 last Sunday after reset

obsidian patio
solemn delta
#

And still managed to cap

drifting burrow
#

:O

#

thank you!

twilit arch
solemn delta
#

2 days you can cap but its boring

little swift
#

Hunts also have the benefit of happening multiple times a day / server

twilit arch
#

centurio isn't data center specific and has channels for most if not all datacenters

#

also a good way to stock up on materia

solemn delta
#

And a waste of potential high exp for other classes any I recommend just doing an expert once a day. (unless your in a rush for a piece)

stray gull
#

Hello, i accidentally bought an NA Time Card but i needed an EU one.. I don't know if this is entertained? But can someone help on what to do with this? Thank you in advance.

warped nest
#

Find someone to trade with you

#

Or just accept the lose

little swift
#

Ripebear we're referring to the trains. You shouldn't be doing the train on non80 classes anyways

#

Its not exp waste that way

warped nest
#

Bear was talking roulette

#

Expert, Alliance, and MSQ

little swift
#

Its definitively to your advantage to uee the roulette for exp yes

solemn delta
#

Yeah I haven't done any trains mate was just advising the best way to cap using roulette

#

Using expert and keeping your others for leveling.

warped nest
#

If you are tank/healer, you can offer taking first time player to queue for lvl 80 dungeons, I believe you will get bonus tomestone?

little swift
#

Also consider your weekly e5-8n clears if you do those are 40 allegory as well

solemn delta
#

Even then, if your preferred roulettes are just a break from the fastest way to level ๐Ÿ˜

warped nest
#

Definitely more than 40 if you are trying to snipe for certain drops

twilit arch
#

first time bonus is phanta

warped nest
#

Ahhh

#

No first time bonus for capped tomestone, huh

little swift
#

Nope

solemn delta
#

So far I've not had to repeat an E5-8 yet I always get what I roll for

#

ES5-8 would be very different I presume

#

Hmm it says I have no chocobo to feed in my inventory so do I have to take him out of stable?

#

I fed him earlier while in stable weird

twilit arch
#

feed is for changing colour

solemn delta
#

No exp bonus?

twilit arch
#

need to make sure youre selecting train

solemn delta
#

Sure someone said to feed for extra exp

twilit arch
#

no, feed is strictly for changing your chocobo's colour

#

training is for exp

solemn delta
#

Ah you need the root to train

#

I trained for an hour and not 1 exp though...?

twilit arch
#

the exp is given immediately when you train it, not after an hour

#

the hour is the cooldown between training sessions

solemn delta
#

Goodness it's no much is it haha

#

Think that was 2k ๐Ÿ˜‚

#

I'm 88/100 for weekly log I better get that done that's decent exp

scenic scarab
#

Is there still a limit on the loot for copied factory?

solemn delta
#

This is clearly a long and attentive process. Even the guys with every class at 80 and doing savage every week aren't level 20 chocobo.

scenic scarab
#

Or am I able to spam it for the coin?

twilit arch
#

no, the only weekly thing is the clusters

#

so you can spam it for armour/coins to your hearts content

scenic scarab
#

Ooo sweet

#

Just came back so im a bit behind in ilvl

leaden ginkgo
#

how do i get orchestration recipes to repair faded copies? i'm a lvl53 alchemist right now

whole wasp
#

some of them need master recipes

#

else they are mostly in the lvl 30, lvl 50, lvl 60 normal recipe

severe cosmos
#

Mhm. There's only 3 rolls that are level 70.

twilit arch
#

i assume you mean, normal lvl 70 recipes

leaden ginkgo
#

hi guys is there a list what i should buy with tomestones when i am at 2000 with phantasmagoria ?

drifting burrow
#

is gear ii just better?

twilit arch
#

yes, also gear II is universal

#

first set is job specific

drifting burrow
#

:o

#

so what's the purpose of the first tab

twilit arch
#

it was released first

#

@leaden ginkgo if you don't need phanta for gear, then look at the prices of the crafting materials and buy the best one (Or just buy like 10 of each) and sell em

drifting burrow
#

ah

#

icic thank you!

leaden ginkgo
#

@twilit arch kk thx will do

severe cosmos
#

So why does it require to have the original Zeta relic in your bags in order to get a Zeta replica of the same type? Or am I missing something?

scenic orbit
#

What is focus targeting for?
What I'm guessing is well, it's to keep track of an enemies health
Is that it though?
Is it used to let your party know who to target? Do they even see it?

twilit arch
#

focus target lets you keep a particular target's hp/status effects in view

severe cosmos
#

I use Focus targeting as healer all the time so I can see what the boss is casting.

twilit arch
#

so if for some reason you need to change targets from the boss to an add

#

you can still keep an eye on what the boss is doing, and casting

scenic orbit
#

Ah ok

twilit arch
#

and no, your party members cannot see your focus target

#

only you

severe cosmos
#

You can also use it to keep track of the buffs/debuffs on said enemy while not actually targeting them.

#

Example of my question. Just recorded it.

blazing pelican
#

So, is getting hard freezes (up to getting kicked to main menu) while riding chocobo fixable, or is it a signal to upgrade my PC?

severe cosmos
#

If you're getting kicked to the menu there should be an error code of some sort.

blazing pelican
#

These freezes are rare on their own, but happen quite often when I'm mounted

slate arrow
#

what's your hardware?

whole wasp
#

uhhh. try the benchmark? maybe its the network instead of the computer

slate arrow
#

namely, CPU and harddrive

#

hard drive speed

blazing pelican
#

I've been telling it a couple of days ago, crappy laptop with gen7 Pentium CPU and Intel HD Graphics GPU

slate arrow
#

oh

blazing pelican
#

Don't know about HDD though, can't check it

slate arrow
#

yeah you're definitely being limited by your CPU

whole wasp
#

you can still try this anyway

blazing pelican
#

It's playable, but the main problem are mounts

#

Not sure if it's only Chocobo, cause I didn't get any other mount yet to test it out

scenic orbit
#

Is there any point in sheathing and unsheathing

severe cosmos
#

Outside of looks and posing, no.

#

No actual gameplay difference.

scenic orbit
#

Okiedoke

#

Does the button that activates sheathe become useful once a battle starts?

slate arrow
#

no

scenic orbit
#

Aiight ty. Will use it as a macro button then

severe cosmos
#

Anyone about the zeta question?

#

I'm trying to figure out if I'm just missing something here.

slate arrow
#

I think to get the zodiac zeta replica you need to turn it into the HW crystal person?

twilit arch
#

no, thats just one of the requirements

#

you either need to turn one in or have a zeta on you

#

its just how zeta works ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

severe cosmos
#

Wait, so if I destroy the original for crystals I just have access to the replicas permanently?

twilit arch
#

yeah you dont need a zeta in your inventory if you've turned it in

#

since...you kind of cant have it in your inv at that point :d

severe cosmos
#

That's really strange.

#

The NPC to dismantle it for crystals doesn't mention anything about the replicas.

jaunty lance
#

Hello, returning player here just wondering what the system requirements for the game look like now in terms of storage space? (With all expansions)

leaden ginkgo
#

hey guys, how are you all

#

got a question

#

I came back to the game after 6 months of break, and I kinda want to level my other jobs now

fresh lodge
#

Last time I checked it was around 50-60gb

severe cosmos
jaunty lance
#

Hmm a lot less than I thought, thanks!

leaden ginkgo
#

I know that for tanks and healers, the best way is with leveling roulette and dungeon farm

but what about for dps? I think the queue times are still horrible right? what's the best way to level those?

severe cosmos
#

Mind you, there might me more required due to patches.

#

Palace of the Dead is good.

jaunty lance
#

Yeah, it may be FF15 that I was thinking of then when I think 150gb haha

severe cosmos
#

Palace of the Dead, Heaven on High, as well as roulettes if you're feeling frisky and need a few gear upgrades along the way.

scenic orbit
#

He's manually setting up focus targeting so where is the shortcut in that lol

leaden ginkgo
#

Palace of the dead ha...........

#

what is the cross hotbar

#

so let's say from level 1 to 70..... how many palace of the dead runs do we need? did someone do that math there?

scenic orbit
#

Tag me if you can answer my question

warped nest
#

Select Enemy - Context Menu (right click or square), @scenic orbit

#

Crosshotbar is a hotbar for controller players

scenic orbit
#

Eh noo you don't understand lol

twilit arch
fresh lodge
#

You mean tie focus target to something like R3?

scenic orbit
#

Yeah that's what he's supposed to be showing in his video

#

However he still manually sets up the focus target

#

The macro is in locking on to nearest whatever

#

His video is highly liked so I'm just wondering where the confusion is

severe cosmos
#

Yeah, he's wanting to set a hotkey for focus target.

#

Instead of using the menu to turn it on.

leaden ginkgo
#

does Palace of the dead take into account the armory bonus?

severe cosmos
#

Armor doesn't matter in Palace of the Dead.

fresh lodge
#

I think the macro is just /focustarget <t>

warped nest
#

So... It saves 1 step

scenic orbit
#

What's the <t> for?

warped nest
#

Your current target

fresh lodge
#

To focus target your current target

severe cosmos
#

Hey, that one step is a lot when things are getting heated!

warped nest
#

It will set your current target as a focus target

twilit arch
#

it doesn't apply inside, but it does apply to the completion xp iirc @leaden ginkgo

scenic orbit
#

Ok

leaden ginkgo
#

oh, so it applies where it matters XD
the outside EXP

#

excellent

#

shit, so many runs
I fear for my sanity there

warped nest
#

Just run roulette and dungeon normally

#

Then do potd if you feel like it

#

Unless you need a 70 job like in 3 days before weekly reset

scenic orbit
#

Like what you just told me is really important. Why isn't that in his video lol. People are going on about how much of a godsend he was but he was leaving out the part in the title of the video

warped nest
#

When you are so used to doing something

#

You forgot that people don't know how to do it

leaden ginkgo
#

the issue is with Queue times

#

for dps jobs

scenic orbit
#

Ah ok I was thinking it might be that. Just the fact that he expected people already had macro for focus target

leaden ginkgo
#

I don't want to wait for like 15 mins just to play a dungeon

fresh lodge
#

Because thats not what the guide was about

warped nest
#

Roulette/Dungeon beat potd even with a 10 minutes queue time

fresh lodge
#

The guide was about setting up a macro to easily target your current focus target

warped nest
#

I feel that doing this is a bit niche, but whatever float your boat I guess

#

I generally uses focus target to track my tank

#

Or another boss if the fight has it

#

A more useful tech on PS4 would be learning how to do soft targeting

scenic orbit
#

So this is what I already had, which does not focus target. It just locks on to my current target

leaden ginkgo
#

@warped nest that much better huh?

#

is it smart to set up macros for all samurai combos or should I just execute them manually

warped nest
#

Please don't make combo macro

#

Macro don't count in decimals

#

And macro doesn't queue action

scenic orbit
#

English plz :]

fresh lodge
#

Just don't macro GCDs together

scenic orbit
#

GCDs?

severe cosmos
#

Global Cooldowns.

fresh lodge
#

Global Cooldown

warped nest
#

The hell?

scenic orbit
#

Yeah I'm lost lmao

warped nest
#

Mearaga, is this a joke?

fresh lodge
#

Urgh

scenic orbit
#

I feel like yall might think I'm an end game user or something lol

wintry chasm
#

Mearaaaa

fresh lodge
#

I forgot the don't

warped nest
#

Or did I woke up in a reality where you should macro weaponskill

severe cosmos
#

I actually made clips for this.

#

This is a global cooldown.

fresh lodge
#

!faq macrogcd

scenic orbit
#

Oh so you're saying that's another macro I should set up

warped nest
#

Grave hawk, we ain't answering you question atm

fresh lodge
#

No

warped nest
#

@leaden ginkgo yes, potd is only good if your roulette/dungeon queue is significantly worse

#

I can't provide an exact cutoff point

scenic orbit
#

Confusing ablobsweat

twilit arch
#

generally if queues are 15+ minutes, should probably just do potd

fresh lodge
#

Don't worry about it

warped nest
#

But if you can get into a roulette or dungeon in 5-10 mins, then they are better

fresh lodge
#

It'll make sense later

warped nest
#

I won't even macro oGCD / Ability

#

Especially not those "I have one button to do all Ability" macro

scenic orbit
#

What happened to my question gdi lol

#

Too many people asking questions so easy to get mixed up

warped nest
#

Are you following the tutorial?

scenic orbit
#

What tutorial?

fresh lodge
#

Just don't worry about macros

warped nest
#

/focustarget <t>

fresh lodge
#

The one you have set up atm is really all you need

warped nest
#

It doesn't work

#

Apparently

#

At least that's what I read from the screen

scenic orbit
#

No the one you posted I haven't gotten to use yet

fresh lodge
#

Just try /focustarget then

warped nest
#

Your original syntax is wrong

scenic orbit
#

Which of these do I need to put it under?

warped nest
#

Yeah, line 1 very wrong

whole wasp
#

Anyone

warped nest
#

Delete line 1

#

Replace line 1 with mine

scenic orbit
#

Ok lchronos

#

Please watch this video

warped nest
#

Watching the video won't correct the syntax of line 1

fresh lodge
#

Do you want a macro that targets your current focus target when you use it?

twilit arch
#

its a 2015 video

#

some things have changed since then

fresh lodge
#

Or one that makes your current target the focus target

twilit arch
#

just make the first line /focustarget like was said

scenic orbit
#

Yes but even in the video itself, he manually focus targets. Look at the title of his video. I just want to understand why he's showing how to lock on to current target instead of focus target using macro

#

I just wanna understand what I'm not getting lol

warped nest
#

You do know what is a Focus Target right?

scenic orbit
#

Yes "Focus Target" will pop up on screen with the status of the target

drifting burrow
#

are white scrips only enabled for level 80 crafters/gatherers?

fresh lodge
#

The guide is from 2015

warped nest
#

The game cannot Focus Target for you automatically

fresh lodge
#

Its severely out of date

wintry chasm
#

Right Kate

drifting burrow
#

wat

whole wasp
#

@drifting burrow yup basically

warped nest
#

You need to tell it to, either with macro, or with the menu

drifting burrow
#

D:

whole wasp
#

Cant get it without a lvl 80 char

drifting burrow
#

oh

#

so you could have a dom/dow that's 80 and it'll enable it?

fresh lodge
#

No

twilit arch
#

no, you need a crafter/gatherer at 80

fresh lodge
#

Since its a DoH/DoL currency

drifting burrow
#

ah

scenic orbit
#

I'd like to keep that macro there. For locking back on to targets in a snap

#

That's for my R3 button

#

I could map the focus target you mentioned to L3

warped nest
#

Make sure that you know what R3/L3 do by default

#

And you are okay with not doing those actions

scenic orbit
#

L3 sheathes and unsheathes

warped nest
#

Ahh

scenic orbit
#

Besides when I'm locked on I can't sheathe anyways

#

So which out of all those macro numbers am I supposed to choose?

#

Dude in the video said I could only use 98 or 99 for the one I already have

#

Don't know why lol

fresh lodge
#

Because those are the only 2 options for what you can bind L3/R3 to

scenic orbit
#

Ok so that sounds like I need to use 99 then

#

It works, tyvm

#

Now the issue of, how to remove it lmao

#

Or do people usually not bother with removing it. I can focus a new target but can't remove. Thought using a second time would do that but nah

warped nest
#

Google for ffxiv macro library

#

And look into the dictionary for focustarget

twilit arch
#

if you deselect the target and press your stick again, it'll remove focus target

warped nest
#

And see how you can disengage

#

I feel that all this are too much work for what can be done with the context menu (2 clicks)

scenic orbit
#

I'm using a controller

#

It's not as smooth as mouse and keyboard. In the heat of battle it wouldn't fly so well

#

Also that worked thx smugf

#

Well everything is working A ok now. Sorry for the hassle I know it's annoying haha

warped nest
#

It's fine

severe cosmos
#

Can you not remap controller buttons?

wintry chasm
#

It's smooth as keyboard and mouse if you just get used to it

warped nest
#

Controller user here as well

#

The only thing I find annoying is placing ground AOE

#

(not all jobs have them, so even that one is not too bad)

#

Oh, and typing with PS4 software keyboard

wintry chasm
#

For me it's just party selection. I don't have an issue with ground aoes

scenic orbit
#

Ground aoe?

wintry chasm
#

Yeah aoes you can put on the ground

scenic orbit
#

I know aoe is area of effect

#

What's hard about it? Aiming?

wintry chasm
#

Yeah

warped nest
#

You need to use joystick/camera to move the center point of the aoe before placing it

scenic orbit
#

I'm a white mage so I'll need to do well with that

warped nest
#

Have fun

#

It is not too bad once you practice

#

Plus you rarely need it to be absolutely perfect

scenic orbit
#

Well I could slap on a analog attachment for increased accuracy

severe cosmos
#

As a WHM since Coil progression, I can say that playing WHM definitely taught me to hate how people play sometimes.

scenic orbit
#

Man I just gotta say. Getting into the mmorpg scene is roughh. So many terms to learn and even when things are being explained. Sooo many more new terms which makes explanations hard to understand too so you need an explanation of the explanation

#

It's just AAAAAAA

warped nest
#

You will get used to it

#

We are here to answer questions when you got em

scenic orbit
forest lark
#

Not sure if I asked this before, but are new glamours released on mog every patch?

slate arrow
#

no

rough coral
#

get studying grave, there will be a test tomorrow kizusmug

fresh lodge
#

There isn't really a schedule for them except event items are usually added a year after they were first released

forest lark
#

I want mor glamours lol

#

I swear this is addicting

slate arrow
#

could always check the marketboard

severe cosmos
#

I kinda wish they gave a chance to get them by playing the game before putting them on the mog store and just sell it to people who missed out on it, but that's for another discussion.

forest lark
#

I wish there were more on mogstation

twilit arch
#

most of the items that go straight to mogstore are from CN

#

or KR

#

so they're pretty much never going to be earnable in-game

forest lark
#

So many ff characters, they couldve madebfortune if they released glamours

severe cosmos
#

The most notable outfits you can earn in the game, like Cloud's outfit, or Squall's.

forest lark
#

Id want Serah or terra glamour, butbI doubt theres even slight chance of them releasing such glamours

dusky nest
#

its most likely something they keep for when they really need to make some revenue

forest lark
#

Can you earn High summoner outfit in game? Cause I bought it and onlynrecentlt sawbit atbcalamity salvager at limsa

dusky nest
#

you cant

twilit arch
#

no, it was a fanfest reward

solemn delta
#

Need some help with my squadron. I've sent them out on two training missions but now the missions lower some stats while increasing others.

This is making it so I can't do any of the missions cause I don't meet the requirements

Or can I send them out on the missions if they are just below?

dusky nest
#

it was in the salvager for those who got these tokens from fanfest iirc

forest lark
#

Oh good i was like "did I just buybsomething I couldve easily earned by playing"

dusky nest
#

@solemn delta you need to find the right balance in the training. you cant boost all the stats.
if you just do it for the exp, select the last training that doesnt increase anything

solemn delta
#

I'm assuming there general stats will increase with level?

dusky nest
#

yes

solemn delta
#

So do the last training mission then regular missions until 20

#

Then I can start leveling them in dungeons

dusky nest
#

that last training is intended for when you are happy with the stats balance and now only want to get some exp, however sending them out on actual missions is better to level them iirc

solemn delta
#

It looks so.

#

In no rush anyway. Got lots to do I'll level em up

forest lark
#

Is neo ishgardian set good starting gear for lvl 80

wintry chasm
#

Yeah if you get it HQ

#

It's a pretty decent place to start

whole wasp
#

No. That lets you trade for tidus outfit if your character changes gender from fantasia.

wintry chasm
#

...If you want to pay for it

whole wasp
#

And vice versa

#

Ah crap. Discord didnt scroll again.

forest lark
#

Well is there any other way to get lvl 80 decent gear vesides paying ishgardian on markets?
