Spend your phantasmagoria on deepshadow accessories
Do Eden normal for the loot pieces to trade in
Where can I start it?
Does the game end up giving you a ninjutsu manual or should I be writing these down? Or I'm blind and don't see it in the actions/traits window
Thanks
Or you can just buy neoishgard off the market board
Scroll all the way down @vagrant copper
Thanks Channy
What each mudra makes is at the bottom
Personally I just organize my mudras so that I can memorize the appropriate patterns. But that's just me.
And there's always... experimenting!
I'm already messing up enough with literally the simplest ninjitsu! 😛
I hid my chat log LOL how do I get it back
Press enter
Does any play black mage?
Whats your blm question
oh....derp 
I can always @ rika if we need help 
I was wonder should I try to gear my character now or way till 50. I'm lvl 45
Just go with highest ilevel gear while you're leveling.
Stats won't really matter until max level
Your job quests hand you 4/5 left side pieces as well at lvl45
Oh ok. Thank you
The fate farms for relic weapons, will it need to be synced?
don't worry about gear, at 50 you'll get ironworks gear as well for tombstones
You can pick up past versions of endgame gear when you hit the msq 50/60/70 points as well, which is strong, but requires poetics tomestones.
Fates are always lvl synced
Ty
Ty
but all of this is gated behind msq so make sure you do that as a priority
Yea got my level 60 gear it was a massive upgrade Jesus
Can the MSQ between ARR and Heavensward be done coop if both players are on the same quest?
Don't see any reason why not (for the most part)
Sometimes the msq forced solo play for “instanced” parts
Really dreading those 90 or so quests
hello, I am a returning player looking to find a group. Is it still best to look for one via reddit or is there a different site for recruitment?
Between ARR and heavensward right?
They changed/ are going to change it
Yes krum
So it's significantly more streamlined
Yeah we plan on playing the tough that content before the next update
The story is nice? That is good to know
how do i unlock hotbar 3
In hud layout and then click it so the text is white rather blue. (Right click)
You can also set up a bunch of hotbar stuff in the character settings menu
thanks
What to do with Approved Diadem fish?
Desynth them
Yeah, you'll get approved skybuilders mats from Desynth that you can use for crafting Restoration items
or sell them, if crafting isn't for you
Thanks! Very useful.
why does it always say "message to [player] could not be sent" everytime i want to reply
trial players cannot send messages
im lvl80
and you can't send messages to players in instances
oh ok
how does eternal bonding work
do you get any perks or
does the other person just take half your gil if your sub ends
No
Eternal bonding just puts the ceremony on for you and your "partner"
You both get rewards based on the cheaper of the packages you guys use
If you toss away the ring its like divorce
do we get to change our surname
Ring let's you tp to your partner
none of that "inventory sharing" stuff that other mmos have for marriage
It doesn't do any sharing stuff
a lot of people just get married for the glamours LOL
I have this pinned on my clipboard
https://www.finalfantasyxiv.com/eternalbond/na/detail/fees.html?lng=en&rgn=na fees and benefits of the different tiers
All marriage glam can be equipped by either gender
the tp sstuff sounds good
do I get a penalty for leaving my own dungeon
1 person
kinda sad we cant change our surnames
They announced that the Yokai-Watch Event would return, that was at the end of 2019, did I miss it? Or are we still waiting?
Still waiting
no you don't eye
Mattyleon, you can pay $10 to change your name on mogstation
Ok cool, thanks 🙂
Not in the store
Yes
altho I'm guessing those emotes are only to be used on the husband/wife?
i'm just waiting for a party for the 2nd level 50 dungeon
Not sure, eye
how long will a party take approximately?
Praetorium?
Yeah
only a few minutes at worst
is the marriage event only for this week?
they have their own roulette since cutscenes are forced
It's a "paid" service
@leaden ginkgo marriage can be done anytime that's not during a maintenance or someone else's time slot if they have a higher tier than you
Can you change how you look later in game?
send a screenshot
Yes
yes
Yes
Wow, thanks hahah
MSQ gives a free Fantasia
Why did Coerthas freeze over post calamity?
@warm burrow you can edit most features for free, and race/more extensive changes for 10 dollars on the cash shop
@crimson wind aether balance went out of wack
Coerthas was already cold as heck
neat
Thanks! I love the responses I get from everyone here. So helpful!

Do I just buy lotto tickets untill they cost more than 1000?
also, since I'm starting HW soon, is there a place where i can find all the aether currents?
Cactpot is limited to 3 per week
Ah
can I remarry for free any number of times?
But it is worth buying 3 tickets right?
Maybe you need an eye Pie
But you won't get the marriage set again or the other bonuses unless you get a higher tier it seems
All mounts fly too, yes?
Yes
Besides company chocobo
Have to do the level 52 quest "I believe I can Fly"
Which is being removed in 5.3
It's a cute quest, so I recommend doing it before it goes away
No, it's a side quest
it's not MSQ
Oh
it's a 
also how long should it take for me to go from 30-50?
leveling or MSQ
Leveling
1-2 days depending on your rested exp, FC exp bonus, and food
Eh maybe 8 hours at worst
k cuz i want to main MCH in HW
how to cancel eternal bond?
Toss out your ring
Not surprising if you're dps
But reset was about an hour ago, so there should be people queuing for daily roulettes at this point.
Hey guys
So i just unlocked my first raid the binding coil
But its seperated into 5 turns
I need to do the raid to unlock a quest to get the 2nd raid
Do i need to queue for all 5 turns seperately one after the other?
You can clear thr last one to unlockthe next one
So just turn 5?
But its not likely to pop via duty finder
My goal here is just to unlock alliance raid roulette
Yeah turn 5 9 and 13 are all that's needed to finish the story
Allianxe raid isnt from coils
Quest is legacy of allag in mor dhona from that
Ahh ok
Coils arent in rouletres at all
gotcha
Theyre savage difficult
Do i need to do coils to advance msq at some point
No
Or are the coils useful at all
no, but there is some interesting story there if you want it
But the plot is sorta important
wraps up some loose ends, helps develop some characters
hah ok, might do it
Put up an unsync party finder if you're interested in clearing it
There's some parts of coil you have to do in a restricted manner for a morbol mount (BLU) and it has some pretty nice glam
Also it drops upgrade mats for Ironworks stuff at the end if you're able to solo it to lower poetics costs there
But they're winning without the two of us
Poetics ezpz to get though
In bulk? It depends
the only way you're ever going to wind up short on poetics is if you're using them to buy crafting materials
Hes a fresh 50 so many first time bonuses
if you're just gearing up it's more than you'll ever need
And 50roulettes
I randomly unfocus the boss how do i avoid it without pressing tab 100 times
Yeah, at that point it won't matter anyways because can't solo coil as fresh 50
Yes
Say one person bought the free one, while the other bought gold. The ceremony options will be based on the free ceremony, but the one who payed for gold will still get the gold package bonuses
what is RMT
Real Money Transaction
Don't participate
gold spamming can be reported as RMT?
Ye
Can anyone help with my display / UI settings issue? People have told me settings don't sync by your account and are local only, but they are and I don't know how to fix it.
Upload your character/settings in the character select menu
Then download them again from whatever device youre using
No the thing is I -want- them to be local only. But everytime I change them on one system, it adjusts them on the other. Like on PC is a 4K laptop, so I run it at 200% UI scale, 30 point font for the chat window, etc.
And the other system is a 2560x1440 32".
So it runs at 100% UI scale and 18 point font.
Hello everyone. I have yet to download and start a job OR character.
After reading some guides about BLM OR SMN I wonder.. on PS4 European servers, OR in general anyways:
What jobs are popular in raids?
In some topics I Read some unwanted jobs, e.g. BLM.
P.s. Any good topics to Read You can link/PM me. Still reading guides.
But everytime I play on one system then switch to the other, the resolution changes to like 1280x720, the UI scale is the same from the last system, the font is the same from the last system, etc.
!faq meta
@void crest
Thx I Will start there.👍
The link is a meme
you fool you fell for it

What you have fun with is what people want
any role is good if you know how to play it well
Always liked healer OR magic Rangers in mmos

Magic ranged*
basically bring whatever you like, no jobs are turned away. there isnt really a wanted
I think the mechanics matter way more
Yeah. That I Read top on reddit
so if you're enjoying your role and find it native to you to learn easier, that's the most important thing
Azalea pls no shitpost
Too
for example I was contemplating if I should play mch as it's considered lower dps class compared to smn/sam but I always loved ranged dps and so far I out dps almost everyone in instanced content bcs I studied my rotations
Is there a PS4 specific channel. OR ff xiv is crossserver ?
@grizzled marsh im still a little confused by your question, you are correct in that it doesnt automatically change UI settings from one computer to another, they do have a cloud backup option but that requires you to manually do it. unless they made it automatic and im not aware of it
Xiv is cross server
Ah ok
PS4 and PC can all play together
is there a way to add more than 4 chat channel tabs
No
as for resolution scaling, all games will put the resolution to its native
No
My recommendation is to find what you want to see more, story logs, party chat and/or FC chat tabs
also, if you don't like a class it's very easy to change too, I started out as BRD and didn't like it, took me less than a day to level mch to 55
(no life mode) lol
I see
Filter your chats with log settungs
I AM very lazy. Well.. in changing that is.
I usually pick and play one thing for months
I used to be the same, but there is no other mmo which allows you have a class change with 1 click lol
i was late for the boss of the dungeon cause i got left behind
it's so easy to have all the jobs that most 'older' people have all the jobs levelled to some degree
is there a filter that prevents clicking on other players and minion names. so i can click on summoning bell on priority
Trust me the lure of levelling everything is too hard to pass up
Especially when its so easy
I came from wow for example and alts were a pain
Yes its in char config
you can hold alt to hide player names, i cant remember if it prevents you from clicking them
inventory space, switching chars etc
I do like to complete everything I can 😇 😁
here 1 click and boom you're a diff class lol
@tender estuary It seems to be doing it automatically is the problem... which is of course an issue because with the PCs I play XIV on being different screen sizes / resolutions, they need different settings.
im gonna have to look into that, thats really weird
But like I'll play on my laptop, which uses 200% UI scaling and 30 point font... and then switch to my desktop, which uses 100% UI scaling and 18 point font, but it will have the laptop's settings until I change it back.
I found scaling to look crap... native scaling is the best
you kinda have to use scaling if you use a high res on a lower screen size
otherwise its so tiny you can barely read anything
@next wind 100% scaling on a 4k laptop is unplayable, lol.
haha okay that makes sense
Bought complete edition, do I miss anything of I do not subscribe right away? / In the 30 Day free periode that is.
the 30 day free is the subscription I think? I bought a code from ebay
and then you renew from the 2nd month
I bought using PS store
Also 0 on keyboard numpad will work as well
Char config display name settings
@finite ferry
You actually have to go out of your way to have the subscription kick in before your free days are up. You're not missing anythhing Wichan
Alrighty
and say hello to cute things (most of the time)
Uhh.. I player BDO.. ESO... Not sure how much worse FF is. I havent played Any FF before
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/game_manual/config/ if you scroll down
with the option of doing a server back up
I cant find anything about it saying it does it automatically
I actually played wow for years, then a couple of months ago decided to switch, tried gw2, eso
didn't dig both of them too much
ff14 got me good, lol
you might just need to delete the contents of the Documents folder that stores the config file and have it repopulate a new config file that you can change to your liking and then never touch it again
give it a week and don't skip through msq storyline
maybe something is getting overwritten
even ARR is better than most MMOs
@grizzled marsh so my suggestion to you is to copy the files in your Documents >> MyGames >> FINAL FANTASY XIV directory and put it somewhere else and then delete the FFXIV-CHXXXXXXXX folder that is associated with the character that you are having UI problems with
Lets let them make their own judgments
have it repopulate a new folder and modify the settings to your liking
But story is good
I'll.be back later km here. Watching some YouTube guides. While downloading🤗 pumped up while waitinng 🙄
my grand company is asking for an "engraved leather grimoire", is there a quick way to do it or shall I go harvest all the materials ?
can i buy 2 eternal bonds (gold) in my own account and give one to the partner?
@tender estuary Thanks.
Should be able to gift it, swoof
Guys, what's the fastest way to get to level 50 on a new character?
MSQ
besides MSQ
PoTD
Highest level leveling dungeon
but he need a lvl 50 character to use scenario skip
Dungeons are unlocked along with MSQ?
I'm praying at the vista at The Sanctum of the Twelve, why is nothing happening
If they use the skip, it should unlock the MSQ dungeons right?
!faq altlvlguide
@leaden ginkgo wrong time/weather

Well, that's for alt jobs, not first class
Still applies if you story skip, no?
Same ideas apply gazerock
nvm solved it
Can I accept a high level quest and turn it in on a lower level class?
No
Depends on the level requirement of the quest
f
But most quests lock you to whatever you accepted them as
hi guys, my second week in the game. I got il430 gear set, should i do materia melding or wait for higher item level gears?
alright, thx
this dude is invulnerable in this fight? what do I do?
which fight?
Palpymo says something like that in your chat log
Papalymo says such "Whatever is generating its shield must be near! Find it, Player!"
ok thanks just defeated him
what does it mean when there is a star next to the date of someones purchase in the mb?
how do i uncover the treasure from the alexandrite maps?? i'm at the location but there's nothing
that means it was on someone's mannequin
@stuck oracle did you do the side quests "treasures and tribulations" to unlock the decipher/dig actioons?
i did that quest, i was able to decipher but there's no dig
yes, there is look in the actions and traits menu under general
ahh there it is
myep, if you don't already have people you're trying to play with, it doesn't matter too much. Pick servers close to you for a better connection and try to pick a preferred server for XP boosts
I want the next expansion to have the Ascian class
Free Companies are world specific so if you want to join a specific FC, you'd need to be on their world.
The waiting.... Ugh.. 😴
They're all in california so 🤷♂️
Data centers mainly define the overall game experience
Since a lot of content pulls from across the DC
Aether has a large endgame scene, Crystal is more casual with a strong RP community, Primal I have no idea as I haven't really been on there
From what I've heard it's kind of a mix
you can still find people to do end-game raids on crystal
its just not as big of a pool as primal/aether
Lets not pretend aether is better by a huge margin
I did it, I'm a Viera now.
Level 51, baby. What's the best way to grind to 60?
Is this your first playthrough? Have you gotten to heavensward?
Well, daily roulettes will help give you nice chunks of EXP on a daily basis, however you're mainly going to be focused on the MSQ to get into the heavensward expansion where all the 50-ish dungeons are.
Any specific reason to want to get to 60?
Dancer.
Fair enough

Depends how much of the leveling stuff your doing I'd expect :p. Roullete, hunts, exp buffs, raids
is anyone using ds4windows with a wireless bluetooth ds4?
What's the issue?
i can connect wired np
bluetooth i can't tho
trying to figure out if it's my dongle
One second
How old is the dongle? Does it support Bluetooth 2.1?
I never thought I'd have to ask this but it's possible it might be an old BT dongle
yes and 5 years
not yet
weird thing is, it is connected
just not recognized by ds4w
ah wait
i actually did try steam
didn't recognize
sounds like BT driver issues then
try reinstalling your Bluetooth driver or controller driver
or both
u using ds4 win?
if steam doesn't recognize your DS4 via Bluetooth it's likely it's a dongle error rather than a controller error
@tender estuary knows more than me probably
Is Doman Reconstruction doable particularly quickly now? I'm trying to get to Bio-Doma II to unlock housing items - haven't touched the quests before
@agile laurel you're still weekly locked unfortunately but it's only 1000 tomestones a week max
yeah you can try forcing it through steam big picture mode
it has a pretty good controller utility
it doesn't recognize it
but I'll be totally honest im not a controller expert, as industrial said it sounds like a driver issue
I've only used an xbox controller
idk if i should ask this here but the launcher download its suposed to be so slow? on steam and others, my download speed is a lot better
@iron pecan yes, that's normal
try another USB port
last driver was 2006, cant seem to find better newer drivers
if you still have 2.0 USB ports
@agile laurel the max amount you can donate a week
can i close the launcher without problems if i have to turn my computer off?
also go into device manager and remove the previous driver
alright will try different ports
u got a site where i can download new ones?
without catching a virus
the sites im.seeing are scatchy
Drivers should automatically download upon plugging it in
but the Sony website should have downloads
Bluetooth dongle or ds4
https://github.com/Ryochan7/DS4Windows/releases otherwise you can try this
oh that's dire. Is weekly cap still 25,000?
looks like it forces DS4 controllers to behave like xbox one controller
depends on your progress @agile laurel
nonexistent
yea it does but that doesn't really help my issue
I'm wanting to get the Fool's Threshold "windows" from the junkmonger there
Assuming you cap on donations you'll need about 4 weeks to get there
so must be dongle issue i assume
thx for checking tho Hank
You could always abuse housing
have a friend give you perms and then you place the threshold windows in your inventory
yeah np
yep
aagh i'd need to find someone on my world for that wouldn't I?
yes
this might be easier said than done, but I'll see lmao
honestly it's not that hard
unless you're in urgent need it's only 4-5 weeks of capping on donations
which is also why you should keep up on stuff as soon as you unlock it
also correct lmao
@agile laurel
For that doman reconstuction:
The limit is always 20.000 gil a week, the modifer changes once you progress up to 200%.
You need to donate 270.000 gil total to complete it.
Yeah, I only wanted to hit halfway for an item purchase unlock
seems it'd still require a bit of time investment
thanks anyway
It's not that much of a time investment
you just spend a few tomestones and get a fair bit of gil in return
Are all the quests between ARR and Heavensward just low EXP fetchquests?
@agile laurel
They do raise the cap to 25k per week once you pass the 160K mark. (210K gives a 30K cap and 270K gives a 40K cap.)
they kinda are, yeah
@tender estuary i did it!!!
i read a review of a guy of my bluetooth dongle
LOL NO
and he said it'd a bit tricky with a ps4 Controller
instead of.going through with the procedure of registration of new bluetooth device to dongle
u had to right click once it saw ur controller
and check HID
then ok and it installed the hid controller
then proceeded and it worked
oh nice
it seems the dongle normally wants a pairing code
if u do the normal registration
but since u can't give that
it's stuck in a limbo
so that's the work around
thats why I like 2.4 GHz better
phew that stressed me whole week
unless you use wifi
so happy
then it can cause some problems sometimes
well you should change your name to reliever
2,4ghz causes less problems u mean?
it has less latency and has been around longer, and only uses channels for pairing
Hank, Reviever, this is why i bought the Sony Dongle for PC
2.4 is more common
@rich bay lol sold out on amazon, checked :D
so more systems in general use 2.4 so it's easy for 2.4 to get congested
I just honestly hate bluetooth
like you're eating tropical skittles and your teeth get all blue
so annoying trying clean them
@frigid pelican, check other shops, like shops that sell only games they often also have this kind of stuff
Do samurai not have a relic weapon?
i will check with this for now Dreamy but thx!
samurai relic weapon starts in stormblood
let's see if it works ingame

Ohhh ok
i just wanted the touchpad to work and play wirelessly
Rule of thumb: they don't go back to previous expansions to add content
relic weapons being the main one
could someone explain to me the progression of zodiac weapons? Do I go from Atma to Zodiac Zeta or do I pick n choose?
no you have to go in order
Zodiac Zeta is the final step
so relic > zenith > atma > animus > novus > nexus > zodiac > zeta
You have to do them all in order, no skipping allowed.
and each tier they glow more? because the ilvl obviously aren't impressive anymore :P
Zodiac base for example doesn't glow
what stats benefit pugilist? wanna make food for my friend (ik its not a big diff but still XD)
Sks to 6 perfect balance GCDs > crit > dhit > det
how do you make the camera in legacy mode not move
🤷♂️ I've started using it and haven't seen anything matching that description
Other than rebinding strafe left/right to A and D I guess
if you don't want the camera to move you're probably using standard anyways
I mean, technically, the camera in legacy doesn't move when you run left and right. The camera is stationary and you're running circles around it.
I don't know if I'm in the right tab or not. I've been looking everywhere to find out and was recommended to come to discord. Pardon me if I'm doing it wrong, I'm new to both ffxiv and discord.
Is there a way to add collecting to both DoL jobs BTN and MIN at the same time?
since my friends said that I enjoy crafting so much, they think i should become a tradecraft mentor (is that the right word?). what are the requirements to become a tradecraft mentor if the game has one?
yes @viscid totem
your character can have all jobs, making job switching easy in the game
Yeah I'm not sure what you mean A'Gia
oh do you mean collectible?
Also Justa
1: Gather or catch 300 collectables.
2: Synthesize 100 collectables
3: Reach level 80 in any Disciple of the Hand class.
4: Reach level 80 in any Disciple of the Land class.
That's what you need for tradecraft mentor
I've reached 80 in BTN and 71 in MIN but can only seem to do collectables on BTN. I've gone back to the person who gave me/opened the option to farm for collectables as a BTN but when I try with MIN it will tell me "Can't do this action on that job"
thats a lot of requirements compared to battlecraft mentor's requirements LOL
You should be able to collect as miner
You are putting on collector's glove and stuff?
but im almost there, having a DoH and DoL reach lv 80 soon, by today if possible
When I try to put the collector's glove it tells me that I cannot do that in that job(MIN)
depends on how many hours i plan to play today
Oh :/ I've just figured it out. The skills are marked differently in Actions even though its the same skill set I think.
It was a silly mistake on my part I think. I never thought to look there
Now that I switched to Viera it's really jarring for characters to address me as female
I have that problem when I play male characters. It takes me a bit to realize when people talk about me as "him"
ok so there are literally 100 quests between this and Heavensward
grinding to 60 for Dancer may take a while
Yes. The number of quests in between AAR and Heavensward seem to be larger in number than the post quest for the other expansion packs
they're in the process of pruning it, though
I think I read that it will be lowered in 5.3?
mm
ugghhh
this is gonna take forever
Is there a better way to grind to 60 while I wait for the pruning?
Palace of dead?
Next patch isn't for another month or 2
@hasty spade not so long as you'd think. Just focus on MSQ and +! quests. the pre 70 xp is huge
I don't know that there is a way. only a block option?
but you can't block people in a dungeon/raid etc because tha'ts a smart idea
System menu, Support Desk, Contact Us... probably haraasment? IDK
I mean, given the NSFW nature of it, I'd say harassment works
Yo this is kind of a shot in the dark but does anyone know of a linkshell or something with people still looking for Prey Online.
Been trying to nab those horns for well over a year now
Is desynth still only limited to 3 classes
Cuz I accidentally desynthed as cul
Wahhhhhh
If Im waiting for an item to hit the market, do I have to be in front of the market Board checking? or is there a way to check the market and buy the item asap while not being in front of it?
you must be at a market board
I just hit 40 with ally Crafters via ishgard today. When I hit 80 what should I immediately begin doing
get the rest of your crafters to 80
My weekly deliveries and begin doing turn ins for white seals?
with how the ishgard restoration thing works, it's really easy getting from 50 to 80 and it's cheap
I'm saying in general I'm doing them 20 levels at a time.
I got all 8 to 40 in one day...the hardest part was 1-20
I'm at work now and I'm doing research what I should be doingas a level 80 omnicrafter to make tons of gil
offer your services
Ultimately I wanna hit thegil cap for myself and all 9 retainers
and ask for tips
if your only goal is to make gil, its a grind even with in a good niche market.. and most gil is made on new recipe releases for crafted raid gear/pots/food
right now, the latest recipes profit margins are very low
So good and tinctures sell well?
not anymore lol
they do but takes some time/rng to acquire the materials
I'm broke as hell right now because I spent the majority of my gil on my house
The only two sources of income is gathering and doing hunts every day
Which both are mind numbing.
could make decent gil per hour just by gathering raw materials at lvl 80
I make about 800k per hour gathering lvl80 nodes
Sometimes in an hour time I can gather like 3k shards and have my retainers bring me 500 shards per hour when playing
Great, now just do that for 4 years and you'll eventually cap out
Real talk you won't cap for a long time unless you get a lucky break with the market
I'm just trying to find a decent way to make gil without getting burnt out.
I missed my chance. I had 10 stacks of 99 clusters saved from early shb
I just returned to shb from 5.1
And I sold those a long time ago when I got the lvl 8 material
Materia
I miss doing 36 a ranks per hunt train
can somebody help me? Id like to quickly transfer my UI settings from one character to another but im not sure how id go about doing that
then it probably doesn't exist
tl;dr find your local hunt discord and join that to get started
if you're trying to unlock the vendors you need to start from the beginning from your Grand Company
yeah. Was just hoping for a structured explanation to easily share. But I'll just do it the old way
Thanks !
Hey!
Im new to FFXIV and wanted to play with a friend, why cant I join Zodiark? He said I'll have to wait for it to "reopen" whens that happening?
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
Oh thanks
I just unlocked the binding coils of bahumat, do people do these through the duty finder or do I need to search for a party?
usually u search
Anything with extreme, savage, ultimate, minsitral ballad or binding coils in the name you do via party finder
If you want to do it coils is actually a difficult raid series synced at level 50 so most people who do it do it unsynced at level 80 which trivialises a lot of the fights.
If you want to do them I'd make a party finder party to do it unsynced and say something like "first time bonus and watching cutscenes"
Does Qarn give a good amount of EXP?
ok, thanks. and yes i noticed that with ballad real hard to find a group
How do I unlock Shiva and Leviathan EX?
normal or hard mode @hasty spade
^
Normal, the one for MSQ
No dungeon gives bad xp for their level except the level cap dungeons 50/60/70/80
wait is that for the lvl50 msq
But since you said "for MSQ" I assume you're level 50 so it'd be eh at that point
Yeah
^ unless your ilvl is really low?
Does fishing tie into the other non cul DoH jobs
alc has a few recipes that require fish
Rarely Akko
I want to play with my friends
some alc some gsm. Any other time is the fishing aethersands you can get at higher levels
but its predominiately cul that uses fish, tho even then not as greatly
So if im doing all non cul crafts and gathers i need to do it still?
nah
Or is alchemy important
I'm new to Squadrons. Quests say I need stats above a certain limit but I think with 200 points I actually can't get that high? I also see people on Reddit talking about personal attributes - is there a way of training particular members?
Nah?
like you can pretty much ignore fisher if you want to
Ok
Yeah
Ty
The recipes fisher items are involved in really aren't important or common at all

How long will it take to get from ARR to 60 at the end(?) of Heavensward?
From where you are in the patch quests?
@tough wolf Still figuring it out myself but I think you just have to level up the squadron and/or find people with better stats that match the missions.
One of the trainings is just pure XP which can help
stats are determined by class/general squad training routines you've done and their level
If you can't hit the stat caps you tend to just have to juggle around class composition or squad training routines tbh
Ah alright.
And you'll probably fail early missions 🤷♂️
How much Diamond Dust will i get per each Shiva EX run?
1
I didn't want to take on more members as apparently new members levels are based on your current average level. So levelling your current party first seems like a good idea.
uh are you doing this unsync and if so at what lvl
Then you'll need to know the whole fight
well...good luck getting a group firstly, and secondly i would suggest looking at one of the various guides for it
are u farming the mount or something
or just trying to craft a weapon with the dust
Honestly, i would recommend making a party finder group for it instead and unsync it
because it'll be a lot faster
where the f do fc invites show up
same spot as loot rolls
iirc its called "notifications" in the ui editor
Yes
same thing :d
Kael is silly 
yes
Ugh I don't really like answering stuff like that Fury since it does just depend on how fast you do main story. dungeon queues, reading speed, etc etc. I'd say....5 hours for HW patch stuff. 15(?) for the main HW story. Maybe just under for ARR patch content? 10? @hasty spade
That's excluding raids and trial questlines and whatnot which I heavily suggest doing
I registered my friend I. The refer a friend mogstatiob thing. Where do we go to get our goodies?
I’m queued for the second dungeon for my main story I’m new to the game does it always take this long to find people cause it gets close to being a full group but never find a healer then the other people leave
expect 20+ mins for unpopular dungeons at non-peak hours
worst i got was 26 before i gave up and just asked on the newbie channel for help queuing 😛
Ah ok I’ve been waiting 30+
For FFXIv teamcraft making a rotation how do you make a rotation for crafters?
You press the export to ffxiv button and then you can copy and paste the macro
I'm sorry I know that, idk how I said that
collector, how do I craft in it for collectors
@hasty crane Given that your on a JP datacenter, do you have your duty finder set up to allow Japanese? You can change DF settings with the cog in the top-left of the window
how do I do that in the teamcraft?
you don't
just enable collectors glove in ffxiv and then craft normally
There is no mechanical difference, just final result
oh
click on the item, scroll down, and then there should be a button labeled "simulate craft" or something similar
Weird question, does the map (Pressing M) automatically update with new* fates if I leave it open?
yes
Wait so have I selected the wrong data centre role?
What server are you on?
Spriggan
Err, no, I'm just a doofus craig
Though the question still stands for German and French 😛
I haven't found a way Zydico. Especially annoying when a DF queue pops
I’m in the uk
Sure but why limit your choices to only other players who speak English? At least for random groups.
Will there be another ranking season for the firmament?
It'll start from 0 then i'm guessing?
how exciting! thanks!
Spriggan is Chaos you're fine Craig
is there a channel where i can find ppl which send me a friend invite on mogstation?
for the bonus items
and silver feathers
you mean refer a friend
yes:)
or you can try your relevant recruitment channels on this discord
I think asking for one is probably fine. Asking for other people to use yours would be spammy. 
You could also just try https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxivraf/

Would you guys know if I can sign in to FFXIV through steam when I purchase the game? My trial account works on square enix's launcher but not on steam's
I get presented with this when I log in with steam's trial launcher
Sweet, thanks
does it expire?
In like... 120 days or so
You should be able to upgrade to steam version from the FFXIV non-steam free trial when you buy the game through Steam. The reason the steam free trial isn't working is because the free trial you have right now is non-stema
If I am understanding you right
@vagrant copper ok plenty of time lol
are command missions with your squadron worth doing?
alright thanks
Yeah you can unlock emotes and stuff behind it Zydico
Also it isn't bad for xp
I'd at least do it for the unlocks
I'm just scared to purchase cause I heard a lot of bad things about steam launcher and their support team lol
The worst I see is sometimes steam options don't show up on Mogstation because of weird browser technical issues which go over my head but those to my knowledge are easy fixes
If you don't have a specific reason to go Steam I'd frankly just go Non-Steam
the steam benefit is you can pay your sub with steam wallet
thats about it tbh
game is still the same
yeah I have leftover steam wallet funds with me
some people like to have all their games in one place
At what level can you obtain mounts?
so it would be cheaper to afford subscriptions since I use steam wallet a lot
I'm level 22
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
tl;dr; Probably need to keep doing the MSQ for a while
Is the grand company base the place you started at?
No
Oh I see
no you can choose whichever
^
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you chose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here are two links leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies
Maelstrom
Twin Adders
Immortal Flames
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in for more seals.
Hm I see very interesting
Well I got captured when one of the flame troops betrayed us
I need to do that mission anyways
You're getting pretty close to mounts then
Is it necessary to actually kill the first primals on hard post-ARR or is it
sufficient to do the quests (ie.
Ifrit Bleeds, We Can Kill It) an sync with the crystals?
you'll have to complete them for the post ARR MSQ
😩
Thanks 🙂
I have hoped that it's not necessary anylonger because I was able to finish the quest without going into the raid itself.
Ifrit Bleeds, We Can Kill it from Thancred
you need to complete it to pick up the other two
Ah, ok
which you need to complete titan hard mode to progress the msq
Thanks for the info.

Is bonus exp from roulettes fixed?
For example, if I did a MSQ roulette and got praetorium, how much exp would I get?
Real time
i saw i didn't get full 8 days with free time just now
so it must be a cut off point
It is real time 8 days
If you're talking about the free login campaign, it's 192 hours of gameplay
If you're talking about the "just bought the game" time... then it'd be however many days in RL that it says
the free login campaign for example cut me off short
@left cedar It'd scale with your level
like 16hrs
It doesn't give you 192 hours to spend your leisure
Is there a resource anywhere where I can see about how much I'd get each level?
Oh, you mean that
not afaik
It is an estimate
Eight days including the day on which users first log in. This period ends on the eighth day at 11:59 p.m. (local time).
Hmm okay
Prae totals to around 0.8 of a bar, Castrum is around 0.7 of a bar give or take
i strongly don't think that is accurate
Literally doe's matter when
is heavensward going to involve helping ishgard against dragons more? if so, kinda wanna pause and level up dragoon to do it
It only adds small flavor to the text, but sure you do you
You don't lose hours because you didn't pay anything to get it
Basically think of it like you're buying hours
If you're that concerned about it, you might want to contact customer support to get a real answer. 
/\
well i just wanna make sure to get the full out of my money
Ok
Start a sub
Mark down the time
Play for 30 days full time, then if SE cut you short
Go and and present the evidence to em
im asking u guys to not be the test subject obv
Pretty sure if they were cuttin peoples subs short regularly, we'd of noticed by now.
@summer haven leveling up Dragoon will only get you a few lines that refer to you as the Azure Dragoon.
ok thx
It’s not like you do more damage to dragons as a dragoon
I don't care about the lines. I just wanna kill dragons as a dragoon
👌
The only real prove we have is, our sub refresh email always come in on time
but will i be killing dragons?
I dunno if that's good enough for you
||Yes||
cool. thx
@warped nest that's good to know, thx
In case you are wondering, it is counted in UCT
uct?
So it is not affect by daylight saving
I think that's the short hand for universal time?
ah
Or UTC?
i remember i played until 2 am on my last day
was weird
next day at 11am it was off
Don't worry if your sub email is 1 hour early or late
ok ye i don't worry about that lol
It will be 30 days sharp
Hey guys

Don't worry about it, most thingy is designed for the dumbest of people

Novice net is not cross world
