Relics are "evolving" weapons. The versions that exist for the level 80 right now are the "base" form at 485.

white bronze
#

U gotta level up the weapons

vagrant copper
#

I'm just going to keep my blissful ignorance and continue on with my ironworks gear. >_>

white bronze
#

Whaa

open coral
#

Over the course of the rest of the expansion, there will be requirements to level them up which will improve not only their ilevel and stats, but change their appearance.

white bronze
#

Is it the same for the older relics?

open coral
#

Yep

#

That's where the "long grind" part comes in.

white bronze
#

6 months of playing and I'm still learning new things

faint flare
#

And they all have a really annoying steps

white bronze
#

Yikes

open coral
#

The base form is easy enough to obtain for all of them. But the subsequent forms are always a huge pain to get.

faint flare
#

Books..
Light grinding
Crystal sands..

open coral
#

UGH. DO NOT remind me about BOOKS

white bronze
#

Imma see how the old ones look to see if I want them for glamor purposes

open coral
#

Some of them are very cool glamours

white bronze
#

I wish they changed these daily msqs 😒

open coral
#

... there are only two msqs total though?

#

What do you mean change?

white bronze
#

Lately I've always been getting ultimate weapon

#

I'm burnt out on it

open coral
#

You mean Praetorium?

#

It's roulette

#

You have a 50/50 chance of getting that

white bronze
#

Yea I wasn't tryna show I can't spell

faint flare
#

Castrum and praetorium are the only things in iy cause they're the only dungeons like it

open coral
#

Ultima Weapon is a trial 😄

faint flare
#

And it exists so new players actually get ques for it

open coral
#

And it's not in roulettes

white bronze
#

I understand all that.. But I'm still bored 😭

faint flare
#

If the roulette didn't exist, castrum and praetorium would probably never be run

white bronze
#

Like If I could skip cutscenes I wouldnt mind

open coral
#

We used to be able to skip cutscenes. But they took that away because first timers weren't getting the whole experience and upped the xp, gil, and poetics rewards to compensate.

rocky flame
#

Hello i have a question about the savage raid eden furor, how do tanks know which tornado to go to? never seen anything about even in macros

white bronze
#

Ooo

#

Makes sense

marble drift
#

which tornado?

white bronze
#

Also why quests don't give any good money lol

#

Why am I in SHB and quests are giving me like 1000 Gil

#

What am I gnna with that? Lol

whole wasp
#

Very little gil sinks in game. They dont like to inject gil. >.<

white bronze
#

Lol

vagrant copper
#

It's enough to cover teleport costs 🤷‍♂️

marble drift
#

Im not exactly sure what you mean by Tornado @rocky flame

open coral
#

It's not like it's hard to earn gil quickly.

white bronze
#

Tru @vagrant copper

rocky flame
#

the balze tornadoes with conal attacks

open coral
#

Even if you don't have a crafting or gathering job.

marble drift
#

ohright

#

they focus closest target

white bronze
#

I juss sell shit

marble drift
#

MT runs north

#

ST runs south

rocky flame
#

oh okay

white bronze
#

I don't spend like that anyway

marble drift
#

that should be in most macros iirc

faint flare
#

The tanks pick what tornado before hand

white bronze
#

I wanna get into making big bucks but all the guides intimidate me

jaunty matrix
#

is there a way to hide my hp bar and job gauge with macros

rocky flame
vagrant copper
#

@jaunty matrix You should be able to do it with the /hud command. Type /? hud to get the full details

jaunty matrix
#

oh its parambar

#

ty

#

for the hp

marble drift
#

weird. I don't pug. I only go with my static but i could've sworn there were some macros floating

#

regardless. MT north, OT south.

#

if you pull garuda. you're MT

faint flare
#

Irons of purgatory

#

?

#

I dont remember the skill PtiloThonk

jaunty matrix
#

i dont see anything about the gauge tho

open coral
#

The job gauge has a different name depending on which job you have

jaunty matrix
#

wot

rocky flame
#

oki thanks for the help

faint flare
#

The job gauge is usually at the bottom of the hud editor.list

open coral
#

In the HUD, what your job gauge is called depends on your current job. So if you're a WHM, it has a different name than if you're a PLD, for example.

marble drift
#

bloodforthebloodlily

vagrant copper
#

Oh. You just straight up can't hide job gauges

jaunty matrix
#

well Dragon Gauge doesnt work

#

well i can live with this i guess

whole wasp
#

Can use the simplified job gauge.

jaunty matrix
#

wait is there a move bars macro

vagrant copper
#

You can use /jobhudmode to switch between full and simplified guages

jaunty matrix
#

i c

vagrant copper
#

No way to move but you can just /hudlayout to switch between layouts. Though you can't move job gauges off screen so 🤷‍♂️

jaunty matrix
#

damn it

#

hud mode seems fine tho ty

open coral
#

Just shrink them down to minimum size and hide them in a corner or something.

vagrant copper
#

Just curious... what are you trying to do?

jaunty matrix
#

hide combat hud when out of combat

faint flare
#

You can just have 2 different huds

#

One for combat and one for out of combat

#

And swap between them

scenic orbit
#

Hey guys so I've been seeing a "duty gauge" and "status effects" on people HUD

#

However I don't seem to have a duty gauge

faint flare
#

Duty gauge is in the duty tab in hud editor

scenic orbit
#

I have 3 different status effects instead of the one also

faint flare
#

And the status effects can be split up to show your own buffs, other buffs like food and fc and debuffs

#

Opposed to one bar

scenic orbit
#

I've been told it's honestly better to have the one bar

#

What do you think

faint flare
#

Personal preference

#

I have it split so i can enlarge debuffs

#

To see important debuffs easily

scenic orbit
#

Icic

faint flare
#

While keeping my buffs smaller and easily seen in their own lil space

vagrant copper
#

Same here. I don't care about what buffs I have but I certainly care when Doom pops up

faint flare
#

I need it to see Nisi in Alexander ultimate

scenic orbit
#

Doom?

faint flare
#

Yes doom exists

scenic orbit
#

Also vinyl could you possible show your status effects locations and sizes?

faint flare
#

Im not on currently

scenic orbit
#

Do you know your sizes off-hand?

sonic leaf
#

I reached level 40 on my bard but the level 40 class quest isn't in quiver's hold like the previous ones were. is it in another location?

faint flare
#

I know i have my debuffs like 120%

vagrant copper
#

It should pop up under the MSQ display in the top left (by default), @sonic leaf If you click it, it'll show you where

faint flare
#

And buffs like 80% or 90%

sonic leaf
#

oh ty! @vagrant copper

scenic orbit
#

Debuffs are enfeeblements right

faint flare
#

Yes

sonic leaf
#

how important is gil while leveling? ive just been using teleport all over the place and sometimes it costs 500+ il

#

gil*

vagrant copper
#

The costs to teleport are insignificant once you get past like level 30.

#

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Unless you're actually running out of gil

sonic leaf
#

awesome

silent rapids
#

So im new and im trying to install my game im getting a multitude of errors mainly 2 error 16a and failure to update files, i bought the game through steam if thats any help

vagrant copper
scenic orbit
#

I have a macro set to L3 for focus targeting. So I'm wondering what to do for sprint

#

I currently have it set to "hold L2+Y". I can't keep it there though

#

Is sprint recommended to be set to some type of macro or something

faint flare
#

Yes so you can set it to L/R3

scenic orbit
#

Both L3 and R3 are taken soo :S

faint flare
#

You dont really need focus target on L3...just square (or whatever xbox is) then pick it quickly

#

You dont change who your focus is often

leaden ginkgo
#

Guys, I got ffxiv installed on a drive but I did a new OS install, do I have to download the game again or can I avoid that?

vagrant copper
#

Run it and see if it works

leaden ginkgo
#

i tried but it tries to update 15gb

scenic orbit
#

Fair enough

leaden ginkgo
#

and if I try to set that existing map as my destination folder of a new ffxiv install it will warn me it will delete all the files!!

scenic orbit
#

Oh wait how do I set L3 to spring? x]

#

Through use of macro?

#

/ac "Sprint" <me>

#

Got it

little swift
#

You don't have to target yourself for sprint

#

Also just drag the Sprint action itself at that point instead of making a button for it

faint flare
#

Its for controller

raw solstice
#

it's a pretty common, nice thing to macro sprint like that for controller

#

and sprint doesn't queue anyways so you don't lose anything from macroing it (and in fact if you repeat lines for it, it's even better than regular sprint)

little swift
#

Do you need to self target though?

raw solstice
#

no

little swift
#

Hmm I see

leaden ginkgo
#

Hi, I just got my Tartarus keypad in and I need some help in terms of keybindings

#

this is my first gaming keypad so binding all these things is a little overwhelming for me

shrewd relic
#

Are they adding flying in ARR maps next patch?

stuck oracle
#

how do i make separate in combat/out of combat hotbars?

little swift
#

Yes

shrewd relic
#

So is it pointless to farm moogletomes for riding maps for the moogle event?

little swift
#

No

faint flare
#

It will help until then

stuck oracle
#

5.3 won't be for a while i believe

little swift
#

If theres literally nothing else to use them on

shrewd relic
#

Theres like 4 other things i'd rather get before that

#

😛

faint flare
#

Except the unique thing like the earrings and doge neck

#

Tfw the extreme mounts are the one i have and this is the first tome event im fully here for pensivewobble

shrewd relic
#

Cause I could always buy the MGP and use that for golden saucer mounts too

#

But if flying is being introduced into next patch then its pointless having ground mount speed increase isnt it?

#

😮

little swift
#

We'll probably get the ll part 2 before the patch so we'll know when it is closer to thebdate

#

Mgp is likely less useful since its easier to come by

vagrant copper
#

You'll still need to unlock flying in each zone which I assume would require running around a lot

little swift
#

No

#

You are presumed to unlock it once you completr the 2.0 msq

slate arrow
#

flying is unlocked upon completion of the msq the Ultimate Weapon

faint flare
#

Arr gives it after 2.0 completion

vagrant copper
#

ThinkBeard These devs are so inconsistent lol

shrewd relic
#

I've already finished the MSQ

little swift
#

No aether currents becajse its super old

buoyant cobalt
#

Is whm easy to pick up on? I usually tank

slate arrow
#

yes

faint flare
#

Yes

little swift
#

Yes

buoyant cobalt
#

Even if I got a lvl 70 pot for it?

slate arrow
#

oh well of course not if you skip to 70

buoyant cobalt
#

Haha

slate arrow
#

that applies to all jobs

little swift
#

Just take the skills off your bars and slowly learn what they do

#

If you are going to skip

buoyant cobalt
#

Alright. I'll prolly just do story stuff until I get the hang of it then

jaunty matrix
#

is only way to get phantasmagoria by wondrous tails

agile jacinth
#

You can also do low level dungeons to ease into the level 70 rotation

frank anchor
#

hehe I'm level 21 and I don't know what half this shit does :P

jaunty matrix
#

on and roulettes

frank anchor
#

slowly learning

little swift
#

@jaunty matrix you can also get them from shb hunt trains

#

And pixies

cunning palm
#

how do you remove '' target to ignore mark'' on top of my head

slate arrow
#

and level 80 instances

stuck oracle
#

and any shb duties really.

jaunty matrix
#

oh okay lol

little swift
#

Level 80 content in general

jaunty matrix
#

thats the catch up tomes right

little swift
#

@cunning palm open up the target markers menu and target yourself to remove it

#

Its under party iirc

stuck oracle
#

@cunning palm you re-click the target to ignore thing while targetting yourself. although if people put it on you for keeping track of something then it's better to ask why rather than just removing

#

Is there an inn in Ishgard I'm missing?

little swift
#

At the forgotten knight

#

Is the inn

vagrant copper
#

... that'd make too muchh sense

#

ty

#

Oh look. He's right next to that one guy that I've talked to like 3 times already. facepalm

leaden ginkgo
#

One thing I never understood about the forgotten knight is the lack of chairs

#

Like do people just order drinks and stand around?

rich bay
#

Yes, they order a drink and they just stand or leave outright.

It is not really a pub people stay for long unless someone needs a place to sleep.

leaden ginkgo
#

I googled it, apparently the chairs were donated to the brume to use as firewood lol

onyx kiln
#

by how much are my stats cut when entering Eureka?

faint flare
#

They're brought down to i300 stat levels

little swift
#

You are hardcapped to ilvl300 iirc

scenic orbit
#

And How do I remove the lock symbol

faint flare
#

You cant remove those numbers, thats just shows the gearset number

#

Incase you have several gear sets for the same job

scenic orbit
#

Ohh ok

rich bay
#

And you can't remove lock symbol afaik.

little swift
#

Locking prevents you from dragging things off their bars while playing

#

Keep it on

vagrant copper
#

You could use a hotbar other than #1 to sort of get rid of it

scenic orbit
#

Ah so that's what it is

Hey guys - just wondering if anyone knows of any marketboard tracking that is actually up to date? Most of the ones I find only go up to 2019!

autumn geyser
#

hey guys I am level 60, where can I find a good weapon?
Thanks

little swift
#

If you're far enough into msq

#

Idyllshire

#

For shire weapon

onyx kiln
#

so how do i tell if the the gear i get from Gerolt is better than the one i have ATM?

autumn geyser
#

I have concluded the story of the first expansion i think

little swift
#

Is its ilvl higher?

onyx kiln
#

i can't tell with buying it all.

little swift
#

If you finished heavensward you can grab 60 gear from idyllshire@autumn geyser

leaden ginkgo
#

what level gear is it @onyx kiln

little swift
#

With poetics

leaden ginkgo
#

or alternatively, where are you buying it

little swift
#

What gear are you thinking of getting?

#

From where

onyx kiln
#

can only get the first tier of the Anemos armor so the very first one

little swift
#

Anemos stuff is just cosmetic at this point

leaden ginkgo
#

i would personally not recommend using anemos gear as a means of gear progression

faint flare
#

Thats like i320 or something

#

It should say on the description

little swift
#

Its not expansion ilvl cap

#

Which was 400

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah, like channy said, it'd be for cosmetic reasons, there are much easier ways of getting the same if not better gear with much less effort

little swift
#

Easier to grab scaevan with poetics now

leaden ginkgo
#

scaevan gear should last you to about level 73 un-augmented, sorry i made a mistake

#

before dungeon gear outpaces scaeven

copper trail
#

Hey, over the last two days I've been getting these massive fps drops (120 -> 30), and once they begin they stay until I reset the game entirely. At which point I get my usual fps.

hasty spade
#

I can't tell if Dancer is really easy or really hard. I kinda just press glowy buttons and camp them out. Is that what I'm supposed to do?

faint flare
#

Just press the glowy button yep

#

And dance on cooldown

scenic orbit
little swift
#

They're macros

jagged whale
#

What are these orange pins on the map?

little swift
#

You can set macro icons using the ones provided or /micon

faint flare
#

Points of interest

little swift
#

Points of interest help gauge where you need to go to complete your map

#

Kinda break it into small chunks

fervent oar
#

Hey guys. So, if I want to add another role, I click the reaction thing, right? Does this just add more stuff to the left side?

vagrant copper
#

Yes. Though if you click a role you already have, the bot will probably take it away

fervent oar
#

Ah. In the Balance Discord, you choose a role and it populates channels with that role in mind. I was wondering if that happens here.

#

And if so, how would you switch between them.

vagrant copper
#

Same thing here. Selecting the healer role gets you access to #healer-lounge

rough jolt
#

i have a question.
My Paladin and my Dark Knight essentially use the same armor.
Is there a way to use the same armor in both sets, but have them look differently (transmogged) for each class?

fervent oar
#

Oh, so you just have to switch as needed?

twilit arch
#

yes, make a glamour plate for each and link the glamour plate to the appropriate gear set

little swift
#

It gives you access to the specific role lounges and allows you into the datacenter channels

rough jolt
#

@twilit arch Can you tell me where to do said Glamour plates?

little swift
#

Just take every role you want

fervent oar
#

(I should be in off-topic, I think. sorry)

#

Thanks much.

twilit arch
#

at the inn room or squadron room, there's a glamour dresser

rough jolt
#

Okay let me go there rq

#

Ok am there.

twilit arch
#

put the gear you want to use for the glamours into the dresser if they're not already

rough jolt
#

Okay so the one i want to project? Not the Actually equipped gear i assume

twilit arch
#

ya the ones you're going to make your gear look like

#

not the ones you're currently wearing

rough jolt
#

I really dont get how to put them in.

twilit arch
#

you need 1 glamour prism

rough jolt
#

I have 30-ish in my inventory.

twilit arch
#

per item you want to put in

rough jolt
#

Oh okay wait. i got it.

#

Does that make sense?

twilit arch
#

Some of it can go into the armoire

rough jolt
#

Like thats stuff i only use as transmog anyway right?

twilit arch
#

anything that can go into the armoire should go into the armoire

#

and the ones that can't, you can put into the dresser

#

though dresser can only hold 400 items atm

rough jolt
#

Okay. One secooond

#

okay...

#

So.

#

Its in

twilit arch
#

alright, there should be an edit plate button and that'll bring up the plate interface

rough jolt
#

Yas

green pagoda
#

can i buy mounts at the marketbord?

#

if so, under which category?

#

bc i cant seem to find it

rough jolt
#

theres like 3 mounts

#

On market

twilit arch
#

once you've made a plate for your pld and drk make sure to save them, and then open up your gearset menu. Right click on the gearset you want to save and select "Link plate to gearset"

#

You can, they're under the miscellaneous section @green pagoda

rough jolt
#

@twilit arch Thanks man ! This helps me a lot !

twilit arch
#

np

green pagoda
#

@twilit arch there i a lot of stuff in miscellaneous... no way to filter for them?

#

bc if i look for "mount" it only gives me stuff like "mountain" and so on

twilit arch
#

not specifically for mounts no

#

you could search for "horn" but that's going to bring up a lot of other things too

#

iirc the mounts are like on page 2 or 3

green pagoda
#

ill try, ty

#

the mogstation is so bad

#

they need an ingame store

#

theyd sell like 20x more

#

i assume i have to use party finder to queue for edens verse savage content?

#

instead of duty finder

obsidian patio
#

Yes.

#

NA/EU rarely ever uses DF for extreme/savage content

leaden ginkgo

okay

#

and what's the drop rate of the ramuh crystal

twilit arch

its 100%

leaden ginkgo

#

ok thank you

frank anchor
#

ok so how do I know if I'm doing well in an instance or if I can do better? someone mentioned damage meters were not a thing or not allowed

forest lark
#

How good is recommended gear feature

obsidian patio
#

It’s a bit wonky below 50 for tanks but past that it’s fairly solid.

little swift
#

ok so how do I know if I'm doing well in an instance or if I can do better? someone mentioned damage meters were not a thing or not allowed
@frank anchor Damage meters like ACT are a don't ask don't tell kinda thing. If you don't harass people with them you're more than welcome to use them to help improve

frank anchor
#

oh I see what you mean

#

thought it's like 3rd party softwares that can get u banned

obsidian patio
#

Simply having it running for personal use is perfectly fine.

frank anchor

awesome, thank you

eager delta
#

is duty roulette once per day or per week?

vagrant copper
#

Day

eager delta

like the bigger xp reward

#

ok nice

little swift
#

roulettes are daily rewards

#

use the !daily command in #kupo-bot-spam if you want to know when they reset

leaden ginkgo
#

so odd ish ponder

#

From 5.0 to 5.25 now, what non First zones has quests?

#

As far i see, is Ishgard for Restoration, and Kugane for Relic Weapons?

#

Non First, not MSQ related quests

little swift
#

the peaks > ruby weapon

leaden ginkgo
#

I saw Ruby, but you have to do the MSQ to unlock it first, from what i see

#

so i imagine you... find it around that time

For example I'm level 78 is it okay to use recommended gear feature?

I'm playing healer btw whm to be spe

unless you want something specific

for the most part it'll be an assistance at that point

restive willow
#

i like having extra piety but you can use food for it

little swift
#

since gear is now role separated

restive willow

accoring to a wiki this all the shadowbringer dungeons, but the daily 80-dung roulette is still locked

what am i missing here?

you're missing Akademia Anyder

restive willow

ah yes

twilit arch

its unlocked in Eulmore slums

easy to miss

#

Is the Relic Weapon unlock difficult?

forest lark
#

No

twilit arch
#

no

forest lark
#

That's what I've been told

leaden ginkgo
#

Then ill go ahead and do it

#

before all these dungeons and raid unlocks

No

Its just not Tuesday

also quite early in the day still

1-2 hours before peak hours begins on NA

I have a ton of kupo nuts but I'm not sure what I should spend them on

yeah

little swift

you can grab the unidentifiable stuff, which is both used in the hw anima relic/ traded for soils for gardening or the glass fiber

Question: Is there a discord that does the Baldesion Arsenal nowadays (I am in Light)?

versed bridge

I play on a controller and I've learned about WXBR. I'm wondering why the WXBR doesn't change when I change classes. Is there a setting to do this or will i have to change the set every time I want to play as a different class? Wondering mainly for future reference as I'm still leveling my first class but this is something that's better to know early on before i get into a groove with my controller settings

You have whatever youe wxhb referring to set to Sharing

where can i get decent lvl 30 gear

NPCs in your nearest big city. If you haven't done the novice training from the Smith, you might also do that. Decent gear that looks good

Not quite sure how it matches up to level 30 gear though

And where to get a Higher than 430 Hip Crafter Armor?

#

Cause i could get Everything 470 except Accessoires and Hip

clever cave
#

guys.. i cant find where to rent a retainer on the mogstation lol

little swift
#

you can either get hq crafted facet gear

rough jolt
#

@clever cave Its on Account, not mogstation shop

little swift
#

480? white scrip gear

clever cave
#

sadotter thank you

rough jolt
#

Yeah

#

I got that

#

But theres nothing for hip

little swift
#

oh the belt

twilit arch
#

i430 is the highest you can get for belt/accessories atm

rough jolt
#

Yeah Belt

#

Sorry

little swift
#

that's i430

#

as well

rough jolt
#

Well all my Stuff is Max then.

little swift
#

its considered an accessory

rough jolt
#

But i cant reach the needed value to craft neo-ishgardian stuff

little swift
#

475 for dragonsung mainhand

#

you have white scrip gear so it suffers from not being able to meld materia into it to bump stats like CP

twilit arch
#

if you're using 480 white scrip gear, you're going to need to meld accessories and use food/pot

little swift
#

meld your accesories

rough jolt
#

What

#

So put the Materia in it

oak spindle
#

is sephirot ex ddoable unsynced by a level 80 ast, a 74 gunbreaker, a 61 drg and a 67 bard?

little swift
#

at least some budget grade6 melds

rough jolt
#

I mean

little swift
#

if you can't afford it

rough jolt
#

I got the highest one

#

But even then

#

I can put in 3 more. But they only give me +6 not the full +21

#

Can you overmeld Accessoires?

twilit arch
#

yes

little swift
#

melds make a huge difference

#

yes you can overmeld

rough jolt
#

What Job do i need for overmelding?

twilit arch
#

any crafter at 80

rough jolt
#

Ohh i got 2

#

Okay one more thing

#

The Problem is

#

The Accessoire can only give me +44
Currently without any Materia its at +38

#

When that is full, can you even put in materia?

#

What are the two stats for crafting called in english?

little swift
#

you have to take a look at what the accessory has room to meld into

#

if you cap it the stat is waste

#

Crafting and Control are the english names of the stats

rough jolt
#

okay.

#

One second

lyric warren
#

can dog and cat minion interact with each other?

rough jolt
#

How can i start overmelding?

little swift
#

@lyric warren yes

#

make sure you've done the quest "Melding Materia Muchly"

rough jolt
#

Thanks

little swift
#

if you have the action Advanced Materia Melding

#

you're good to go

rough jolt
#

thaaanks 🙂 ❤️

Just to check, what class and what level are you?

low ginkgo

So me and my boyfriend are doing a zodiac weapon each at the same time and we've just completed our books, so for Alexandrite farming, if I do a map with him, will he also get the drops or do I only get the drops?

frank anchor

can I link a quest in chat to my friends in party chat?

obsidian patio

@low ginkgo only you IIRC

#

Can’t link quests

rough jolt
#

@little swift No. it says on Website all crafters need to be Level 25. its okay. Someone overmelded my rings

Bugger, thanks~

the last one should be there?

#

i checked a guide

its not 👀

little swift

Try above or below

Your z axis may be different

does some minion respond to other than poke, beckon, pet, hand over emotes?

that's gonna get a lot of new players :D

#

how can u tell if someone who's playing with u is on PC or PS4 without asking them? is there such a thing?

faint flare

You dont

granite bluff

only if they have legacy mov for some reason

faint flare

Standard*

Even then some controller players are better than others om kb/m

devout nymph
#

Hey I have a question about Free Company Etiquette

inner heath
#

guys only lvl 60 dungeons will fill?

frank anchor
devout nymph
#

Would harvesting crops and putting all the fruit & seeds I got from it in the FC Chest (I didnt keep or sell anything) be considered stealing?

faint flare
#

Its a minion

#

I dont see why it wouldn't

devout nymph
#

Cause they accused me of "stealing a mil's worth of crops"

faint flare
#

Since you're putting it in the FC chedt

devout nymph
#

And kicked me

frank anchor
#

are minions cosmetic or are they used in combat?

faint flare
#

Cosmetix

little swift
#

guys only lvl 60 dungeons will fill?
@inner heath you can do A9S unsynced

#

its faster with a full group

faint flare
#

And used in lords of verminion

little swift
#

or A1S

faint flare
#

Which is a rts like mini game

frank anchor
#

ahh

little swift
#

@inner heath

frank anchor
#

is there a bank or vault that I deposit my unwanted cosmetics / minions and stuff at?

leaden ginkgo
#

containers

#

i mean

#

retainers

faint flare
#

Just use the minions

#

They'll be added to the minion guide to rot

frank anchor
#

ohh

faint flare
#

Until you summon them

granite bluff
#

also the vault or the glamour dresser

frank anchor
#

thought they were an on use kinda item

faint flare
#

Cosmetic/glamour can be dumped in retainers/glamour dresser

#

Nah, using a mount or minion item registers it for use later

frank anchor
#

sweet

devout nymph
#

@faint flare wait so it would be stealing?

#

Or not stealing?

frank anchor
#

are retainers summon-able, or do I have to go somewhere ingame to be able to deposit stuff with them?

faint flare
#

And prevents accidently buying multiple untradeable minions

#

Not stealing @devout nymph since you gave it back

proud willow
#

I would ask what the rules are for the FC chest before taking anything out

devout nymph
#

Never took anything out

#

Just added stuff in

vagrant copper
#

Were the crops on FC land or something?

devout nymph
#

They were

#

I thought I was just helping them harvest stuff on the days they werent on

agile laurel
#

@lucif

#

oops

devout nymph
#

Cause it was very late and there were still crops ready to harvest so it seemed like no one was on to tend to them

agile laurel
#

@frank anchor you need to be at a summoning bell, usually found next to a market board

#

so - any major city and scattered through housing wards

#

if you have a house, you can also get them as a housing item to put wherever

proud willow
#

If you pull crops out without replanting, you ruin the garden

vagrant copper
#

I don't think harvesting for someone else is following or not following any specific conventions. It's just what the FC decides. 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like your FC decided differently than your assumptions @devout nymph

devout nymph
#

Oof

vagrant copper
#

Or maybe someone else took the seeds out of the chest and you took the fall for it. 🤷‍♂️

devout nymph
#

I'm gonna internally combust

proud willow
#

The whole thing with crossbreeding is that you get something special from planting next to another plant

agile laurel
#

I mean, if you can't figure why you were in the wrong

#

i'd just assume you were dealing with smoothbrain central, better off out and move on

#

not worth overthinking i'd say

vagrant copper
#

Especially if they're not adult enough to actually explain stuff

agile laurel
#

(but maybe don't play with gardens from now on)

devout nymph
#

(I won't, I won't touch anything outside of quests ;w;)

proud willow
#

They did tell him that what he did cost them money, which it did. But they also didn't need to give the whole FC harvest permission if they didn't want people harvesting, so ehhhh...

devout nymph
#

lmaoooo what

#

RIP them then

agile laurel
#

so it's both a case of assumption, and smoothbrain central

#

so i'd say take a small L and move on, but don't lose any sleep over it

devout nymph
#

will do ;u;

#

thank ye

leaden ginkgo
#

is it possible to switch ui when doing a duty?

vagrant copper
#

Sure. You get 4 HUD layouts to work with. You can use the text command /hudlayout # to switch between them.

leaden ginkgo
#

cant do it automatic?

agile laurel
#

i imagine you could macro it but

grave thicket
#

If I do those in party with a friend, do I lose that 10k gil / 3k seals and items bonus?

wind kindle
#

Yellow, how do you get promoted in your Grand Company?

vagrant copper
#

Talk to the dude at the counter and ask for a promotion

#

Not the quatermaster but the other dude

wind kindle
#

Understood. Thank you, as always, @vagrant copper

obsidian patio
#

@grave thicket only if it’s a full premade party.

grave thicket
#

Oh, I see. Thanks!

agile laurel
#

i wanna say mogstation off the top of my head

#

yep

open coral
#

Mogstation

agile laurel
#

it is

regal pecan
#

So I have a question about adding a sub to my account. I went to mog station to add one today, but it popped up with an error code when I went to pay. When I clicked on the error code, it sent me o Square Enix account page saying I didn’t have a security token registered. I’ve never had any problems with Mog station before.

rough anchor
#

if i have manipulation active on a crafter, and the next step would break the item, will it recover to 5 durability or will it break

obsidian patio
#

It’ll break, as manipulation works after the durability goes down.

warped nest
#

Waste Not is reducing the durability cost, so a - 10 becomes a - 5

#

Manipulation is recovering, so after a - 10 it adds back +5

Desynthesis vs Seals

What would be more worth it for a 480 weapon?

hardy lichen
#

sooo, I just finished watching ARR credits \o/, from now on up to heavensward is there any quest line that's important for me to do? i heard someone say somehting about beast tribes and crystal tower blablabla

faint flare
#

Crystal tower

static yacht
#

@leaden ginkgo depends entirely on your needs

#

as well as market board prices

warped nest
#

Yoomu, Crystal Tower will be made into a requirement for MSQ very soon

#

You can't escape your faith

forest lark
#

Do I have to be certain level as Bard to play instruments or...?

little swift
#

lvl30

faint flare
#

30

forest lark
#

How does it work

little swift
#

the unlock quest is at mih khettos amphitheatre

forest lark
#

Can u play anything u want or

faint flare
#

And do the little side quest in gridina

#

You can play what you want but dont record it and post it

hardy lichen
#

@warped nest ye i want to do it because of the lore, i heard its important

forest lark
#

Wow such cool class

#

Someone just played aerith theme in lominsa

warped nest
#

Yes, Yoomu, completion of Crystal Tower quest line adds additional details to the Shadowbringers expansion

hardy lichen
#

but should i go to do it now or can i let that aside for a while?

inner heath
#

im spamming a9s do just have to equip the anima before exit same as beofre or i need to equip it all through?

faint flare
#

Should probably do it now...it unlocks alliance raid roulette which gives very nice xp daily

warped nest
#

Have it on when the boss is killed

faint flare
#

But can hold off

warped nest
#

So just have it on at all time

#

So you don't need to think

#

What Vinyl said, when you have unlocked a 2nd Alliance raid, you will unlock the Alliance roulette on your duty finder

#

It is very good daily bonus exp

#

Good for leveling up other jobs

hardy lichen
#

how do i accept a free company invite? e.e dont roast me

obsidian patio
#

Click the prompt and it should open up and give you the option

lyric warren
#

is there a list of all the current sellable market board mounts?

obsidian patio
#

That and the next few messages

#

Also the flying chair/bed which are crafted

smoky moss
#

What should i be melding for Dancer?

faint flare
#

Crit > dh > det

smoky moss
#

Thanks

#

Also, should i be overmelding with VI or VII?

faint flare
#

8s in the first slot

#

Then 7s

smoky moss
#

but aren't Vi higher than vii?

faint flare
#

You cant overmeld 6s past the first sloy

#

6s follow the same rule as 8s

lament citrus
#

Is there way to transfer items to alt Characters with mb interfering?

wind kindle
#

hi just wanted to say hi to @faint flare , @vagrant copper , @little swift , and @remote lintel . hope youre all doing good.

remote lintel
#

GWnekomakiWaveBOYE hello!

inner heath
#

how many newborn soulstone do i need?

#

to comeplete?

proud willow
#

only one, if you're just doing one weapon

smoky moss
#

is overmelding the 480 generally the BiS for most jobs?

faint flare
#

No

#

Upgraded tome and savage gear is bis

obsidian patio
#

Overmelding doesn’t beat the increased main stat/defense stats for a majority of items.

faint flare
#

(and paladin uses the i485 relic head cause OMEGALUL)

obsidian patio
#

That’s also because it’s 5 safe slots which can take grade 8 materia

faint flare
#

Yeah

smoky moss
#

so what would be better? overmelded 480 or 490 if i can't upgrade yet

obsidian patio
#

Same for some relic weapons beating unupgraded crystarium

#

Crystarium

frank anchor
#

ok so if we're different levels in a party out in the world and each person is doing his msq, do we get shared XP (less xp per person) by doing that? should we be each solo, or does it not matter?

obsidian patio
#

Quest experience is not shared

smoky moss
#

thanks

frank anchor
#

aight so only monster xp is shared, any idea how long the range is? if they're pretty far, like across the zone, do we still split it?

obsidian patio
#

As long as you still have the monster in your aggro list it should still count.

frank anchor
#

cool thank you :D

scenic orbit
faint flare
#

Dont macro gcd skills

#

Full stop

scenic orbit
#

Global cool down hm

faint flare

Macros dont skill que which makes gcd skills come out slower and slower

#

And you'll lose several casts in a fight

scenic orbit

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

Visual reference

warped nest
#

The only combat macros we recommend are raise macro to nofity your party member and ground target macro (Asylum, Sacred Soil, Salted Earth)

scenic orbit
#

What about repose macro

warped nest
#

!action repose

scenic orbit
#

To let people know you bound the target and not to wake it

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Repose** : lvl 8 CNJ WHM SCH AST (600 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)

Afflicts target with Sleep.
Duration: 30s
Cancels auto-attack upon execution.

faint flare
#

No one cares

#

About repose

warped nest
#

You can, but repose is almost never used

faint flare
#

Can literally take it off your bar

scenic orbit
#

Well it's time to hang up my staff

mortal root
#

i need 3 allegory to cap and i've done beast tribes wut do

faint flare
#

Everyone aoes mobs anyway

warped nest
#

Repose is nice for open world questing

#

It is not very useful in dungeons

scenic orbit
#

Rlly?

warped nest
#

Do a dungeon, Raiyaya

#

Or a raid

mortal root
#

fine i'll do 7n

faint flare
#

Everyone aoes mobs so any slept targets will be immediately waken up

warped nest
#

Just don't think about combat macro

celest compass
#

how many points are needed for 6 achievement certificates? Cant seem to get the 6th one at 390 points for some reason

faint flare
#

You get one every 50 points

celest compass
#

shouldnt i have 6 then?

faint flare
#

If you haven't spent anything

celest compass
#

i havent, just started a couple days ago and ive been trying to get the behemoth mount

scenic orbit
#

That's the macro

faint flare
#

Just dont bother with repose

#

In general

scenic orbit
#

I'm gonna have it on my bar anyways I'm a low lvl. Still a conjurer

faint flare
#

No one will care its slept

#

And just keep aoeing

frank anchor
#

welp :(
friend just told me at level 20 I should already have a chocobo mount, but I'm 26 and don't think I've done a quest that gives me a mount :x

faint flare
#

Like chronos said, only real use is overworld

#

When you're on your own

scenic orbit
#

Then that's what I shall use it for :]

mossy current
#

Lucifer, are at level 20 MSQ?

faint flare
#

And wouldnt need a macro

mossy current
#

And chosen a Grand Company?

frank anchor
#

how do I know what level is the MSQ at, and I have no clue what a grand company is lol

#

been just picking up quests and doing them

faint flare
#

Look at your main story quest

#

And see what leveo it says in the journal

#

What does "target to bind 2" mean btw?

#

Like what's the "2" all about?

frank anchor
mossy current
#

It's a marker over an enemy's head

#

The level right of the quest name

faint flare
#

And there's 2 bind marks

mossy current
#

Is the current level of the MSQ

scenic orbit
#

What's the point of it tho

frank anchor
#

ahh guess I'm a bit behind on the MSQ

#

leveled pretty fast :o

raw solstice
#

there's not particular widespread meaning to using the "target to bind" icon

#

crowd control in general is nearly meaningless in the game, outside of stunning/the occasional useful/mandatory silence

#

bind, sleep, heavy, those really don't have any sort of relevance

scenic orbit
#

Hm that's a shame

#

So there's no putting something to sleep and then everyone getting ready for a heavy synced start

faint flare
#

No

raw solstice
#

not at all

faint flare
#

Like i said

raw solstice
#

it's far less efficient

scenic orbit
#

Ok

faint flare
#

Everyone is aoeing mobs anyway

#

So it will be immediately woken up

scenic orbit
#

So asylum would be a good example of something you want a macro for yeah?

faint flare
#

Its ok

bleak wedge
#

are bards good late game in the most recent patch?

faint flare
#

Yes

bleak wedge
#

how come they parse at the lowest on fflogs then?

little swift
#

people complained that the 5.0 changes removed all of bard's raid support/utility

faint flare
#

Cause they give alot of raid damage via songs

little swift
#

so squenix gave it back

#

so personal dps wise they are "less" high

#

but they provide exceptional raid utility and raid dps

forest laurel
#

is there some sort of command that can set a specific idle animation?
e.g. I could have DRK have the crossed arms animation but for another job I could have a different one

river portal
#

For some reason we can't seem to enter a zonureskin portal? says one r more members doesn't meet the criteria

#

everyone here has done the treasure map quests and has dig

static yacht
#

iirc if someone joined the party after you already right clicked the treasure chest

#

they won't be able to join

hoary storm
#

theres /cpose

river portal
#

nope we were all present when the portal opened

#

like

#

we did the chest together

static yacht
#

whats the party comp?

river portal
#

BLM, DRK and WHM, I think we're just undersized

static yacht
#

if you want to quickly SS the comp / level

#

are they not level 80?

river portal
#

they are

raw solstice
#

and you're not like in PF or anything, right? That was the issue someone had the other day with it

river portal
#

we are in PF, is that it? cause the PF is open?

raw solstice
#

yes

static yacht
#

believe so

#

disband it

raw solstice
#

well you don't have to disband, you just can't be in PF

#

just like how you can't queue up for anything in DF when you're in PF

static yacht
#

disband the posting** sorry lol

raw solstice
#

yeah, just wanted to be clear haha

graceful lantern
#

does low level Diadem skybuilder stuff even sell? I've had my things up for about a week and hadn't gotten a sale even after adjusting prices

faint flare
#

Barely any diadem mats sell for a high prixe

#

Since they're so easy to get

obsidian patio
#

Only the level 80 non-artisan stuff sells good due to being the best scrip source

graceful lantern
#

so it's better to just sell them to an NPC?

vagrant copper
#

Just to make sure... you know how to change hotbars right? As in, set 1 is empty as well?

forest laurel
#

is there a way to get to the top of the statue in rhalgr's reach?

scenic orbit
#

I'm going to delete all that so nobody else sees it

#

Let's keep it between us

vagrant copper
#

xD

slender crater
#

Hey all, just got a PC and was wondering if i should get 14 on SE store or on Steam?

forest laurel
#

if you get it on steam, you'll have to buy the sub and expansions only on steam.

scenic orbit
#

Should I have limit break on my hotbar somewhere for conjurer

graceful lantern
#

it's better to get it on the SE store, less confusion than on steam

slender crater
#

ahh, so it seems SE store is best then. ty!

vagrant copper
#

I'd say non-Steam just to keep the possibility of multiboxing alive. Not that it seems terribly useful in FF14 lol

static yacht
#

yes have LB on hot bar

#

for conjurer

#

but I would suggest having it be a click rather than a hot key

forest laurel
#

healer LB is an absolute worst scenario situation, as in "OH GOD WE'RE ABOUT TO WIPE AND I'M THE ONLY ONE ALIVE"
but it's best to have LB on hotbar anyway, just in case you will ever need to use LB3, which revives everyone in the radius.

scenic orbit
#

Oh

static yacht
#

I mean I have it on = hot key technically but I always click it

forest laurel
#

otherwise, leave the LB for DPS to use, preferably melee DPS

static yacht
#

it won't be relevant until you do 8 man trials / raids

jagged whale
#

Does leatherworking make conjurer equipment?

twilit arch
#

it makes some of their armour

jagged whale
#

Is there a craft better suited for a conjurer

twilit arch
#

but most conjurer/white mage gear is either going to be carpenter (for the staves), weaver, and goldsmith

jagged whale
#

Ty

twilit arch
#

but that said there's a fair bit of cross over between all the crafters that its generally recommended to level them all

jagged whale
#

Can they all level at the same time or is it similar to classes and such ? I'm new sorry

static yacht
#

I believe leather workers make the boots for white mage

#

similar to classes

#

but it's recommended that you level them at the same time

#

because there's a lot of "you need to be this level to create this material for this craft"

jagged whale
#

Makes sense

#

I'm still looking for other craft trainers. I'm in the black shroud. New gridania, and I'm level 14

static yacht

the only crafter that is relatively independent of other crafters is culinarian

all the crafters + classes are in the other cities

Can I save todays supply turnins for the weekly reset?

#

no they have a different reset time anyways and reset daily

warped nest
#

you can

it changes every day

warped nest
#

you can, but there is no reason to

twilit arch
#

it automatically changes every day at a specific time, which you can see in the timers window (ctrl+u)

that said if you are max level there's only so many items it can be

you can't save it...

like.. I think @ level 80, there are 3 items that it can be for alchemist

warped nest
#

it is a very small list

hybrid cairn
#

I mean, they change at different times right, so will it count today's grand company turnins for the challenge log that resets weekly?

static yacht
#

no

#

not til reset

#

all weekly based things reset on tuesday

warped nest
#

weekly is in 6-7 hours iirc

#

GC is like 20 hours?

#

give or take

#

wait....

static yacht
#

oops its 8 hours

#

oh that is tuesday

hybrid cairn
#

Yeah so since its at different times

twilit arch
#

I see what you're meaning now, and yes you could hold off turning in today's gc turn ins if you're wanting to get the weekly challenge log done

#

since the weekly will reset before the grand company turn ins do

warped nest
#

i forgot that it is part of a weekly challenge tbh

hybrid cairn
#

Oh cool thank you

forest laurel
#

does anyone know if it's possible to get on top of the statue in rhalgr's reach? thinking of taking a pic of my RDM glamour there if so

quasi summit
#

what the best looking race for summoner in term for lore aesthetic and roleplay

twilit arch
#

pretty sure its not, atleast not without some out of bounds magic

forest laurel
#

damnit

#

guess I'll have to find some other place somewhere in Gyr Abania

twilit arch
#

the closest you can come to getting up there is thru temple of the fist

quasi summit
#

forest laurel
#

Rhalgr

wintry chasm
quasi summit
#

btw about my question i am thinking on changing race and was wondering what look more appealing in roleplay and lore wise for summoners

wintry chasm
#

Nothing really stands out whatsoever Shin

rancid cloak
#

can u buy crafters gear with poetics ?

warped nest
#

nope

wintry chasm
#

Summoning is a dead art so it's not like it's a heavily one sided job in terms of racial proportions

forest laurel
#

yeah afaik there's no real race that screams "this is perfect for a summoner", just pick whichever you like

static yacht
#

iirc the lore of summoner is such that literally any race can be it

quasi summit
#

dead art what do you mean

crystal bluff
#

make the biggest, bulkies roegadyn you can

wintry chasm
#

As in summoning hasn't been a thing in the world for thousands of years

quasi summit
#

so summoners are a rare wizards?

wintry chasm
#

I suppose you can call it that

quasi summit
#

interesting

forest laurel

from the job guide page on the ff14 website
The beast tribes of Eorzea worship and summon forth beings known as primals, among which are Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan. Yet what is a god to one man is a demon to another, for the city-states of Eorzea see these beings as a grave threat to their collective survival. In times immemorial, there lived mages who had not only the power to summon the primals, but also the means to transmute the primals' essences, thus binding them to their will. Known simply as summoners, the existence of these men and women and their arcane art have been all but lost to the ages.

warped nest
#

you can always go with the standard trope and pick a magical-feeling race

#

if you really want to push it

static yacht
#

Literally all you have to be to be a summoner is :be an arcanist (which any race can do because adventurers go where they want) and fight a primal

lone totem
jagged whale
#

Can you track resources or do you just randomly bump into them when gathering?

lone totem
#

that is half correct

peak night
#

@wintry chasm I have been using that page for resources

#

I mean tricks like for example in this picture

wintry chasm
#

Oh God

peak night
#

all the borders with partitions, the TV,

#

etc

wintry chasm
#

Stuff like that I have no clue

#

Housing wizardry is beyond me

peak night
#

yeah it seems pretty complicated

#

no wonder some people pay for it

warped nest
#

@jagged whale they just spawn on the same spots

quasi summit
#

is those tv actually function or only for decorations

jagged whale
#

black wall

quasi summit

oh i see

peak night
quasi summit

peak night

advanced stuff X)

warped nest
#

you just need to interact with other nearby gathering spots to refresh the spot you just gathered, @jagged whale

lone totem
#

how many TVs have you seen in FF14 lol

quasi summit
#

magical tv is needed to watch youtube of ffxiv in ffxiv xD

#

Create a Paradox and eorzea shall burn

#

yes

#

by using tv

Restart search?

I'll just go to sleep

I don't feel like waiting for another 30 mins

leaden ginkgo
#

so in curiosity

#

5.3 is the finale of ShB MSQ, and the 2nd Alliance Raid, yes?

#

I imagine 5.4 and 5.5 will have the last 'raid content' of both?

#

or does it work differently

warped nest
#

5.3 will wrap up the SHB story and give us the 2nd Nier alliance raid

#

5.4 will drop the last Eden raid (Eden is technically a side story)

#

5.5 will be the last Nier alliance raid

proud willow
#

Stormblood story continued through the rest of 4.X so "wrap up" is not necessarily conclusive

#

but we will get some manner of climax and resolution

leaden ginkgo
#

And, in odd follow up, is around 5.5 like

#

The 'end' of the gear progression in an expansion?

leaden ginkgo
#

Aside maybe a tiny ups from post 5.5 patches?

warped nest
#

yup

#

5.4 will introduced a new capped tomestone and the 3rd and last Eden raid

#

5.5-ish will remove the restrictions, cap will become 900 (only for end of expansion) and eden savage will no longer have any weekly limitation

#

5.4 marks the end of gear progression in Shadowbringers

leaden ginkgo
#

ahas

#

tis nice to know

static pasture
#

in shadowbringer do you hit level gates much? is it an expansion ill most likely have to do the side quests aswell to avoid disruption in levelling the msq? just found myself gated JUST ABOUT at lvl 73, 1m exp off 74. doing the duties too so not short of exp from them

warped nest
#

yeah, Shadowbringer is a tad short on MSQ exp

#

just do your beast tribes and the occasional daily roulette

#

another option is to do the story dungeon twice or thrice to get some additional gear

patent tusk
#

Are the main quests in each starting city pretty different or are they similar to each other?

warped nest
#

slightly different as the cities have different ... management setup

#

but they will converge at lvl 15 msq

patent tusk
#

So I'm assuming that they all converge into the same main story line right?

#

Oh ok

static pasture
#

oo beast tribes sounds fun

#

havent done any yet

leaden ginkgo
#

Guys is the iLv big enough of a factor to justify the SKS lost in this case? Should I buy it?

bronze sorrel
#

100% yes

#

generally ilvl is king

#

actually

#

you wanna get the hq version

#

dont get nq

leaden ginkgo
#

the who o.O didnt knew there was a hq version, at least i cant find that one on the market

twilit arch
#

hqlight it needs to have this icon on it to be HQ

leaden ginkgo
#

wow

#

out of every and all of the neo ishgardian pieces

#

thats the only one that doesnt have it

#

on market

twilit arch
#

could try world visiting to check other server's markets

robust gazelle
#

High Quality has better stats and I think a slightly higher item level.

twilit arch
#

just higher stats

leaden ginkgo
#

how do I make it HQ anyway

robust gazelle
#

Ah.

#

It’s a side effect of crafting.

leaden ginkgo
#

rng then?

robust gazelle
#

Well, a goal of crafting more accurately.

#

You can target it when crafting the item.

twilit arch
#

Only rng if your stats are low/dont have a good crafting rotation

leaden ginkgo
#

I see...

robust gazelle
#

Basically there’s a Completion and Quality percentage when crafting items. If you fill both it’s a HQ item.

twilit arch
#

a well geared crafter with a good rotation can HQ items they make

leaden ginkgo
#

Alternatively, I could spend 375 Allegory for a Crystarium ring

#

i just dont know if that should be the first thing i buy with allegories
