Wait are all the alliance raids references to other FF games aside from.the nier series?
huh
What does the HW one reference? Other than the obvious reference with that one character.
@crimson wind ye
ARR alliances are an FF3 reference
and SB alliances are an Ivalice reference, which includes FF12
FF5 too
Neat
Ivalice also covers FFT
is this pose obtainable in some way? just did the DRK 70 quest and thought it'd be cool for some g-posing
I don't have that idle pose tho
What race are you?
Hyur Midlander
Also, how hard are the Anima weapons to make? The Corvus Lux is quite nice looking
inb4 it's highlander only
Relic weapons are all massive grinds
anima weapons are considered the easier relic although thats not saying much since they are all a pain
anima needs tons and tons of poetics but you get those passively just by playing
Not really hard, just time consuming
so you always make progress
I know Raen Au Ra have it, but since that's a female Midlander Hyur you should have it as well.
How much poetics exactly?
I just went thru my idle poses, I don't have it at all
no idle animations with a hand on the hip
like 14k for the whole thing
Oh
Your avatar is female, right @forest laurel ?
yea about 10k+
ye
also slightly RNG dependant so between 12~14k
after that its just a victory lap going through most of the hard mode dungeons and ARR primals
there is also a light grind but its slight compared to zeta and no books whatsover
is Praet the optimal choice for farming the treasure trove?
I di dn't lvl BLU
prae it is then
Then yeah, Prae
AV isn't awful you spam if you have a good group
BLU isnt required but makes the run a lot faster
anyone use a logitech g502?
if you're not overly fussy, you can just queue AV with whatever
how do i get the buttons to work
i've been queueing with pld all day and its never been dire, besides one case of trolls
Use their software @polar cairn
Dowbload it from their website
And add a profile that lets you customise the buttons for the game you're using it on
You'll have to bind the mouse keys to keyboard keys
Since FFXIV only supports up to mouse3 by default
how long are clears in AV?
Depends on your group
But the average clear for a random synced group will probably be about 10-15 minutes.
I base it on which drives me less insane on repeat
AV always drives me insane on repeat.
@little swift @slate arrow thanks
I don't plan to actively farm the tomes unless it gets close to patch and I haven't gotten the things I want.
I'm doing it today to get the ixion and be done with that, i'll just do prae occasionally after
Blue mage AV is like 5mins
i don't have blu nor does anyone who'd come help
Honestly BLU AV is only going to be valid for like... this week. After this weekend, I feel like everyone who wanted to do that will be done farming.
guys in my exp yellow bar, it continues further as a faded yellowish color, what does the faded bar mean?
Rested xp
Rested xp bonus
Until that faded part runs out, you'll get a 50% additional boost to xp gains from killing enemies.
Its shared between all jobs and gotten slowly while in a sanctuary, even when logged off
Takes about 4days to cap
cap doing?
Rested xp
oh
How do i get an Astral and Umbral Nodule?
Farm heavensward fates for the crystals
Trade those in
Its written in your anima quest journal information which areas give what crystals
Are you not guaranteed a piece of gear from lower dungeons?
Was just checking at 44 there
I believe that only starts in HW levelling dungeons
Yes
Only from hw onwards
I remember reading something somewhere where you can turn in gear you don't want to GC for seals or something?
I finished the MSQ, do i need to do the post shadowbringers MSQ aswell to unlock the end game content?
no
Then how do i go about unlocking that content, my duty finder looks the same as it did before except with Locked EXprt & 80 dungeons
get your ilevel up and unlock endgame dungeons
im 480
@dense pier once you are sergeant second class in your grand company you can turn in dungeon gear there
The current expert dungeons are locked behind MSQ, but 8 man raids are unlocked at Ryne in the Crystarium, I believe
Do note that expert dungeons aren't considered end game
Do that then
how to skip cutscenes on praetorium? im on cutscene while everyonr is killing the boss
Its an exploit
People disconnect during the cutscene
And load back in with it skipped
Dont do it
i cant access options on ps4
Also arguably they might have a shorter cutscene
Depending on their selected audio language
really don't understand why folks do that
sure it's prae, but good luck probably soloing bosses
The bosses don't reset if they die so outs faster

Are the treasure maps from the event worth getting?
The riding maps? Not really
I see. Thank you, again, @faint flare
Only if you've gotten everything else you want and need something to spend tomes on
I guess ill just get the Mount and the 3 cards
Riding maps only increase ground mouny speed so they'll be redundant on the patch
Unless you still haven't finished base Arr yet
you sure about that?
Yes
guess i need to stop my FC from farming for them on that assumption then
Flying is coming to arr zones next patch
yes
And riding maps only affect ground speed due to flying already being the fastest speed
Lol, it does not
Flying is max speed already
i guess, Ixion then just the cards
Oh, whoa, a LUCT character
Id consider the neckerchief too since its not obtainable elsewhere
But, yeah, the riding maps aren't great
Neckerchief if that's appealing to you
Mounts if you have issues
The usual
they were nice for the last bits of running while getting last aether currents.. but thats it 🤣
Is there any way to see if someone writes a ticket against you? I did nothing wrong but I couldn't res the guy cause I had 2000mp at last boss and dps kept getting hit by AoE and he said he's reporting me lol
I see. Thank you.
No
I doubt it
I know nothing will come off it.
Tickets are meant to be private, as far as I am aware
Because I bloody carried the dungeon
Ignore the smooth brains
If you're contacted by a GM for anything, then the contents of the ticket might have not been entirely petty
WHM using cannon on the stone vigil when WAR is squisher than anything I've ever seen
@solemn delta you cannot see tickets against you, worse case scenario, a GM will contact you to verify both sides.. but highly doubt it. they got logs of events
is LB shared by the whole team?
Yes
Yes
@stable hinge yes
Bruh
How do I use glamour disspeller

Yeah I just healed the dungeon and said come on dps when they didn't use cannon. To which the guy claiming a report replied "LOOOOOL THAT'S YOUR JOB HEALER"
Or use the dispeller plate to remove all glamour
this whole time I thought bosses were stealing my LB
Thanks
Dont think too hard on it ripebear
Some bosses do reset LBs but not in dungeons often, only really gets reset in 8mans and 24mans
Limit Break varies depending role using it. usually you'd want a melee LB if a single target, ranged/mage for AoE. Tank LB is only used in like 2 fights. and healer is an emergency lifesaver
Was more surprised by how squishy the WAR was? I was literally having to spam my cures constantly
Their gear might not have been great
Maybe bad/broken gear and/or not using cooldowns
You can always check someone's gear by right clicking them and using examine
sounds like the typical "Cooldowns are for tankbusters" but he should use them
He was over geared but said he missed an important spammable cd
It won't tell you if their gear is broken though
In Stone Vigil both the tank and healer have to be on their game. It's the first real difficulty increase in the leveling dungeons.
Nah he had like 3.5k hp me about 1.9
Hmm
Sounds like bad so don't think too much
Onto job quest lol
ironwork can be upgraded to 130
but anyway, off topic here lol
True but any point really?
Augmented Ironworks gear will last you twice as long as unaugmented.
Same for Shire and Scaevan
well if you get upgrade it to 130 at Lv 50, its makes it BIS until Lv 54
He should have: Thrill of Battle, Vengeance, Holmgang, Rampart, Reprisal, and Arms Length
At level 42
cause it equals gears from the Lv 53 dungeon
Well, then no excuses
I usually just rock ironworks regular until 60 lol
yeah, i think he just didnt use his CDs
Hmm
No, you definitely can.
healer yes
If you're confident in your healing skills, you can get away with nit upgrading any of your hear assuming you use upgraded ironworks
tank, i dont recommend it
I've gotten away with augmented Ironworks gear as healer until 60
With only a few extra pieces from dungeons.
You'll need to upgrade in SB since there's a spike around Doma, and in ShB, you can get to 80 off the upgraded tomestone gear
Yeah got full 400 waiting
With regards to the upgraded tomestone gear of each previous expac
This is based off using AST before it got fixed though.
You cannot get to 80 as healer with Augmented Scaevan.
If I abandon a quest can I continue later where I left off
from start
No, you'll have to start from the beginning of that quest.
No
Rip
But yeah if I can't dungeon I'll just roulette to 80 lol
A small price to pay for salvation
Not gonna buy crafted stuff tbh
unless its a quest chain, then you will restart the last quest attempted in the chain
That's super frustrating. I have to stay in a dungeon in order to still qualify for loot that everyone is rolling for?
I just missed out on some huge pants upgrade
how exactly do you get the quests to craft glamour prisms? I don't have the first quest in the questline, the NPC in Mor Dhona doesn't show that he has a quest and it's not in my completed quests. Is the wiki page outdated and there's a new way?
@dense pier Yes, leaving before rolls are done forfeits your right to roll, even if you rolled a 99 need.
@humble maple The quest is in Vesper Bay from Swyrgeim.
can you solo treasure troves?
then the wiki page is outdated, thanks :)
So I've been playing for about a week. Currently have a lvl 24 Arcanist. I want to switch to Rogue, but the quest to access the guild isn't showing up. I've been searching the internet like crazy trying to figure why, but no success. Please help! Lol
@fading bramble You need to go to the guild itself and speak to the NPC standing outside of the gate. He doesn't have a quest mark over his head.
He just tells me to go away when I do.
You'll also need to have completed at least the level 10 job quest for Arcanist
@fading bramble do note you need to do the level 10 class quest before you can accept other class quests
Removing Materia has success rate?
yes
Yeah, I'm on the lvl 17 class quest.
There is no level 17 class quest
Thats your main scenario
whats the cost of removing materia?
Class quests are
at your class guild at level 5, 10, 15, etc.
Oh okay. How do I see what class quest level I'm at?
Just go to the Arcanist's Guild if you don't have the MSQ guide active
It's the yellow ! On your MSQ indicator
Quick question, when I went to PvP for the mog event I used the mech but my skills disappeared and I was unable to do anything. Is there a way to add them back?
Or go into your Journal and change the menu option to "completed quests" and search through the "Disciples of War and Magic" list.
Will do. Thanks guys!
The next has its own skills
You can go to ui settings to set whether that overrides your first hotbat
Oohh okay, hate it cause I end up doing nothing
You can also just get off the mech
As a side note @fading bramble , you should always go back to your guild (or job trainer) every 5 levels or when you level up and get the message that a new quest is available from your trainer, as those quests give you both some gear upgrades and important skills.
Doesnt it waste if I get off
where else can i spend my poetics? i got the set and weapon for my Bard
!faq poetics
!faq poetics
For sure. I have been every time it shows up. I just didn't realize there was a third level to keep track of. Ha
Thanks, I guess I'll be saving them
Alright, understood.
50/60/70 is poetics. 80 is the current expansion's tomestones (currently allegory and phantasmagoria)
I guess its gonna be awhile before I reach the Shire location for 60
currently at 2.55 quests
so i see people say flare spam but how am i supposed to when it uses all mana? 😅
Lvl 50 botanist gear? Where can I buy some off NPC's, market is too expensive
Lvl 50 botanist gear? Where can I buy some off NPC's, market is too expensive
@surreal lichen what lvl are you
Sorry what's BLU AV?
53
Blue mage party, Aurum Vale
Dumb question but is that BLU only dungeon lol
No
No, but BLU has some abilities that make it go super quick
Aah
Aurum vale is the lv 47 lving dungeon
it means people run it unsynced with a full BLU party
They run it synced@remote lintel
Ohhhhh lol....any particular reason why?
Its faster
You bypass party restrictions with a full party @remote lintel
yeah i forgot that happens
You get nothing unsynced
Im on a Gatherer Leve, and i need to have at least 429 Rating, but im only getting 1 point per Mining proces. Can someone explain why?
are the stormblood crafter quests as soul crushing to complete as the heavensward ones?
im gathering 60-70% of the mats myself and yet ive still spent an ungodly amount
No materials needed
Theyre provided
Green jokes aside, what's longer? Praetorium or Meridianum>
Prae
By like 10 ish minutes
Prae is 2x Meridianum
praetorium has full on voiced cutscenes
Nah i clocked the time
I see. Thank you.
Almost double the time
Anyone can help me with my problem?

what leve is it
Its the Level 59 leve for dolchit. Its german
is there a key to remove just player names? can't find it lol
@lofty pulsar if you're on pc hold X
@green grail I dont know what causes this
oh cool ty
different types of leves work differently so dunno much without the type/name i can look up 
One second
there's different options to change in hud layout between like duty, hotbars etc, alliance list will be available in one of them @unique oasis
It kinda just said "success" even tho minimum was 429, and i was like 60
If its a rating based leve iirc it should be comoared based on your level to the level of difficulty in the leve
Leve is 59, and my Miner Level is 68
You get less rating bevause its too easy iirc
Could be wrong
Unfortunately that probably means you'll have to wait to get access to higher difficulty levequests
So, I have lvl 80 smn, sch, whm and lvl 70 astro
What ekse do I need for goddess of magic
Does MSQ Roulette give Mogstones?
Blm rdm
blm and rdm @forest lark
Oh god
yes @hasty spade
Yes it does
OK, good 🙂
What's the fastest way to grind mogstones, actually?
AV, BLU party
When i press CTRL+ P it says i have 6 remaining Delieveries @robust elk. When im at her, it says 0. Is there some other place?
Yes you unlock them as you play more story
Hm?
Next one is in rhalgrs
You have to max out satisfaction with zhloe first
There's one in eulmore too
Oh ok cool
there's another one in idyllshire, one in eulmore, sui no sato, rhalgr's
@green grail You still playing AC?
always and forever
You never answered my DM @green grail xD
i pretend i do not see it 
is the marketboard the only place I can find gatherer gear post-50?
because I barely have any gil and buying gear would put a huge dent on my wallet
Ishgard vendors have gear for the 50s
it's all crafted so you can always level crafters and craft it yourself
@green grail You want a Robot Hero ;)?
but vendor gear is pretty limited in comparison
@burnt spear What Datacenter you on?
There are armor vendors in Ishgard and Kugane, selling leveling gear. You can also get the tomestone gear at levels 50, 60 and 70 from Mor Dhona, Idillyshire, and Rhalgr's Reach.
Btw, hello there! I'm new to Black Mage and I'm a bit confused about the gameplay loop. What purpose do Fire I, Blizzard I, and Blizzard II have in higher level content? They seem a bit useless. I couldn't find any instance where I couldn't simply use a better ability and it just feels like they are there for low level gameplay and don't really fit with the rest of the kit.
I'm on Elemental
Aw man
B1 and B2 are fairly useless but F1 is used to refresh your astral fire timer
I could craft you most stuff with my crafter for free
!faq blmleveling
Well for Material price.
oof
Oh, apologies. I mentioned Fire I by accident. Oops.
Thanks for that handy thing, tho!
blizzard 1 and 2 are only really used in low level content though yeah
It's a bit odd that they don't simply make those upgrade into some of the more useful, later Blizzard spells. Extra space!
is the mount speed the same, or does it go higher through obtaining/purchasing something?
first upgrade is by completing msq in a zone, and for second you can buy zone specific riding maps with hunt currencies
it's only ground speed though and with flying coming to ARR zones soon i don't really think it's worth the effort
@viral narwhal b2 is an aoe I believe and b1 can refresh UI
until you get that one skill
I saw somebody say the riding maps from the moogle event were pointless soon—is that true?
I think they might be because of flying coming in about a month.
I take it flying has a static speed or something?
Is there anywhere online to see all the viera hairstyles? preparing for my wedding next week and yeah.
they'll be useful-ish for like, brand new players who won't get flying in ARR zones while leveling
but other than that i'd say they're becoming pretty useless
only the mameshiba neck is exclusive to the event, ixion is timegated so it's like, an ok option to get, and zurvan/susano mounts are fairly easy to farm now so it's just a timesave over farming them with PF
but the riding maps at 30 are really not worth it
Asking for some quick advice me and a friend are duoing second coil turn 4 and struggling with second phase.
It seems to just wipe us randomly?
do the riding maps give you extra speed over the story quest speed unlocks?
Soon as we enter he casts heavens fall and were dead
yeah, no unlocks is slowest, one unlock is faster, be it only msq or only riding map, and both unlocks are fastest
it's a pretty complex fight with a lot of instawipe mechanics even when unsynced so i'd reccomend you just grab an old guide on youtube and do the mechanics as described there, for the ones you're struggling with at least @solemn delta
i know T9 has a lot of fuckery with specific meteor placements, feeding the golems and more
Thanks how do I turn boss hp % on again?
https://i.imgur.com/Zfzzvpj.png @solemn delta
How much harder is DRK vs PLD?
last option
Drk ain't bad
DRK is very fun. It was my first class to 80. It used to be a bit of a mess with Dark Arts every two seconds but the gameplay is a lot more fun and rewarding now.
I personally like it more than PLD but that's just my opinion. All tanks are fun and viable. :)
I like the way DRK looks visually a lot more, im just worried about switching from PLD and being very confused
DRK and PLD are about the same in terms of difficulty, imo.
@white bronze Some gear can be overmelded (aka pentamelded) to hold more materia. The ShB relic weapons also just come with 5 slots by default.
Don't worry, tanks, besides GNB, are usually pretty similar gameplay-wise.
WAR and GNB are both kind of unique

Yee, PLD and DRK are a bit similar so it's probably the easiest jump you can make from tank to tank. :)
Guys I'm leveling botanist and I reached lvl 50 meaning I have to do relics, but I find relics to be stressful and am not entirely sure I get them. Do I need a companion app showing all spawn times etc?
And can someone generally explains it to me
Yeah! Especially on a level 50 botanist. Just do what's fun. Unless you wanna do them. :)
Try the Diadem!
Buy gear from vendors and it should be fine.
More leveling gear. 50 is just over halfway. Relics won't matter until max level because they'll be replaced.
If you have grand company leveled up enough
It's the same as for combat classes.
Lol
you can get higher ilevel L50 hatchet from them
Thanks
to help you level up to 51 that is
So I guess I gotta level blacksmith to overmeld?
Was that to me?
I been playing drk the last two weeks... Lvl 80 I can offer u some wisdom lol
im nearing in unlocking Ishgard and so, too, Machinist. What is the best method to grind a lvl 1 Class when my MSQ is already at HW line?
MCH starts at level 30
So Aurum Vale is the best for Tomestone of Law grinding?
I see. Thank you.
MCH starts at 30, not 1. But leveling is the same as any alt class. Daily roulettes, daily beast tribes, potd, highest level dungeon, etc.
But your "fastest" option for leveling a dps job to 50 is to run floor 41-50 (I think?) of PotD
If you have a tank or healer to queue with you, just queue your highest level leveling dungeons.
@hasty spade If you're in a 4 BLU group, yes. Otherwise the most effective farm is actually Praetorium.
Eventually the word that AV is the best moogle tomestone grinding spot will spread out
and then all the people will suffer
as they now find themselves running AV that they've been avoiding intentionally
and nobody knows the mechanics
If u on primal I'll que with to level
Oh, we all know the mechanics in AV. That's why we avoid it.
I see AV.. I back out
AV is one of those instances where, if I get it in roulette I'll make agonized sounds and faces, but go through with it. But otherwise I'll go out of my way to avoid it.
I got it two days in a row in my roulette
I nailed it without any death

is the daily roulette: msq the best way to farm these mogstones?
Would downgrading from DirextX 12 to 11 help my lag issues?
@lofty pulsar you can queue directly for praetorium instead of using the roulette
but Aurum Vale with 4 Blue Mages is faster
ok
but what if I don't have blue mage level
or friends
what's the fastest way to get moogle treasure trove tomes?
Did Yugiri's voice change in post SB?
synced
Guys, i am trying to register for a free trial. but i am not making through somehow, anyone around to help me?
i'm a help mentor for a different game, usually we have a bot that has a command
what if i dont have blue mage because im a relatively new player
like we'd make a ?lawtomes command or some shit
Apparently it doesn't take long
no, yugiri's voice changed twice in hw, that's it @crimson wind
can someone please whisper me in order to help me with a trial registration?
Weird
admittedly not too familiar with pvp in FF14, but in WoW I would set primary targets as focus targets
and have a hotkey that targets the focus
i think there's a similar mechanic in ff14
If I do MSQ roulette do I get the tomestones
neat
full list of dungeons that give tomestones and how many on the page I linked
Quickest way to level 70 to 80? also how viable is it for me to spam dungeon finder as healer? lots slower or roughly same? Instant queues atm.
daily roulette > highest level leveling dungeon > highest level trust spam > whatever else
once ive got the reward from daily roulette do I continue getting reward or switch to highest lvl dung?
highest level
because you're dps and dungeon queues are 15+
yes, but if your queues are over 15mins long, then trusts are going to be worth it
I'm really enjoying AST rn 🙂
i wont get event currency if i run a dungeon with my squadron?
they do
i tried unsynced solo but got nothing
ye cos unsync doesn't reward tomestones, in general
but squadron's you're not running it unsync, you're doing it normally just with AI
so farming with squadrons works?
yes
thx
You can't use it on your character currently because of either class/job restriction or level restriction
what lvl is the gear you're currently wearing
Level 25... so I can't glamour low-level gear into high level gear?
That's... really weird
not really
the item you're glamouring has to be equal or lower level than what you're currently wearing. So you can't put a lvl 30 item ontop of a lvl 25
Yeah, i get that now
I need help about FFXIX registration, if u r free, please whisper me
What's weirder is that you're level 41 wearing level 25 boots. If you're tanking dungeons, get that gear updated
this is for ff14
How fast can u level a crafter class compared to combat?
@white bronze if you do ishgard restoration way faster
I'm trying to catch up to MSQ but I can't catch up. I just barely got my MSQ to 36
What's that
you can level crafters pretty quickly
it's a lvl 60 area
basically lets you mass craft things and turn them in for exp
a lot of exp
Really
through ishgard restoration, I got every single DoH and DoL from 1-60 in about a week and a half
Assuming you've got a full allowance of leves, and the ishgard restoration/collectables unlocked, can level in a day if you really go hard on it
it only takes 20 in DoH and 10 in DoL to start ishgard restoration
that, and clearing HW MSQ
you can level 1 - 20 just by crafting things in your log
have you beaten heavensward?
Yea I'm on SHB
it's a requirement to unlock ishgard restoration
What's that
it's the ishgard restoration area
you can do levels 10-20 very quickly by spamming levequests in the major cities
the quest to unlock the restoration is in foundation, right next to the aetheryte
Restoration is basically leves but endless
you have to have the gear for 60 onwards
I just started playing and I was wondering if there was a spreadsheet or something I can track completion/progress
assuming you've got all the mats on you, you could do it quite easily
@nova whale what kind of completion
And the gear to hit stat requirements on macros
because you need to get to a certain level of stat to be able to hit the collectable amounts they ask for
OK
and you'll need to buy or gather some external mats too
Like side quest/msq
So do leves till lvl 20 then restoration till 50?
not exactly
Or logs or whatever
you have to legitimately craft the whole time to 80
i think there is but idk the command for it
because you have to make untradeable collectables
!faq contentunlock
can use this as a progression guide of sorts
as for msq completion just know that there's in between story between the expansions
so after you do a realm reborn there's post-a realm reborn, then heavensward
yeah, but all crafts are limitless if you have the gil
Ok Tyty
it would be beneficial to level a gatherer in ishgard restoration too at the same time
because you'll gather a ton of the mats needed for the crafting half of ishgard restoration
Interesting
what do the Riding Maps do?
Increase mount speed
Cuz I wanna be able to meld and repair on the fly so I guess blacksmith
Mount land speed, specifically
Also make money
Yea for tanks right?
you need a combination of DoH leveled if you want to be able to repair everything
goldsmith, blacksmith, leatherworker, weaver, carpenter all need to be leveled
Also is the best way to get better equipment to just buy them from the shops? (I’m at level 30 so I mean for my level)
and armorsmith
you get them from msq @nova whale
Dungeons and quests
Yea
and dungeon
So msq, job, and dungeons, specifically
Don't buy gear.. It's a rip off imo lol
you should not need to buy armor until levels 50, 60, and 70
unless you're lvl 80
Yea that
Can you still get the event tomestones even in unsyncd mode?
no @wind kindle
Im still currently using the Hall of novice gear since it’s better than a lot of stuff I’m getting
Alright, thank you.
when you are 50, you'll start getting tomestones of poetics @nova whale
Yea you'll get gear naturally
you can spend them at the vendor in Mor Dhona for max level 50 gear
Now if u wanna look cool you'd jus glamor it
What is this event going on?
it should last you all the way until 60, in which case you can buy the level 60 gear
and same for 70
So basically just use whatever msq gives me until 50
70 gear should last you until 75 or so before story starts replacing it
please do not go to 60 with ironworks...
@ruby willow you get special tomes and trade them
should be replacing it at 52 if unaugmented, 55 if augmented
just replace whatever gear you can as the story rewards them to you
Got it thanks!
From what? And for what? @remote lintel
I can’t wait to get some nice looking gear to glamour that and make my sun kitty look good 😂
Can someone tell me why this macros isnt working?
/micon "Raise"
/ac " Raise" <t>
/p You now owe me 2400 MP and I will collet your debt! <t>.
Lvl 60 job quest for Sam didn't give me glamor I'm upset lol
well you spelled "collect" wrong for one thing
ahhhh im blind 😄
As a small note, you only need quotation marks if it’s more than one word
Consider added a wait.1 after the raise action to avoid spamm.chat when you inevitable spam it
One more question, is there a specific point in progression where I start getting equipment that’s more for design so I can glamour my good gear? Or is that all crafting stuff
How hopeless is trying to do the ARR raids over duty finder? in terms of finding people and actually succeeding 😅
not hopeless
If I have 2 macros on Raise it will choose one at random?
probably would be better off making a PF unsynced
okay :D thanks
you can't have 2 macros in one?
@nova whale gear past level 50 starts looking better if you mean that.
@faint flare Just add wait.1
Wait.1 doesn't interfer
It just tells the macro to wait 1 second before running the extra lines
ok thanks! I was just wondering bc I’ve seen characters with some pretty good looking gear and I was wondering when that’ll occur
tbf, most (all? ) of coil can be solo'd unsync anyway
t9 can be a bit of an issue if you're not familiar with it, but yeah pretty much all of coil can be done solo unsync
coil is not on roulette bc of its difficulty?
yes
its basically savage?
Yep
For all these early duty quests in ARR like ifrit, there’s never a lot of people in them, do I just have to suck it up and wait the 20 minutes for a party to fill?
are you a dps?
yeah
fair enough
not just low lvl
hi i am relatively new to the game, just bought it two weeks ago. I am on lvl43 now, and my current MSQ is lvl41. What happens if I hit 50 and buy Shadowbringers, can I continue in Heavensward or do I need to finish up MSQ until I get to that point?
Hello, what is the Magick Job Prism something at the bottom of the event rewards?
you'll still need to continue with msq to progress to heavensward
Magick prisms are basically fireworks
I was thinking of changing to another class but I wasn’t sure if it was better to just wait for a higher progression in the game or not so I’m not just stuck with a bunch of level 30 classes
oh thats it.lol. Thank you.
OK, so I would be better off to lay off the sidequests for now and concentrate on MSQ
fireworks is all they are
so that I don't end up stuck at 50, having to grind lower level MSQ
@nova whale you can change to a different class whenever u want
you don't grind msq
ya its generally recommended to focus on the main scenario quest first
you grind exp from dungeons
since its required for pretty much everything
OK i will lay off the sidequests for now
there are like a hundred post-50 msq in the main game. do i need to do all of them to progress into heavensward content
yes
yes and its shorter than ARR
either you do all of them or you buy a story skip
and it gets good
which is not recommended
guys I'm lv 74 and 1/3 into SB should I start doing dailies with my alts so I don't max out and lose exp from the msq?
if you want
Story skip, not level skip
ok so MSQ it is now
that's what I meant thanks
screw sidequests
are SB/ShB msq level gated?
or in case if my main hits 80 I could do it on my lv 50 alt?
not the fights, those I would do with my main, but quest reward accepting with an alt of lower level?
you can't do higher level quests with a lower lvl
it's level gated
hmm okay, so I'll do roulettes with my alts then cuz otherwise I'll miss out on the exp from msq being 80 before I even hit ShB lol
thanks

Hey peoples. Brand new here and to FFXIV, and brand-ish new to MMOs. First question of what I’m sure will be many: anyone use a Razer Orbweaver or comparable game pad? And if so, can you share your keybinds/set up?
looks like u dont get routine anymore if u do a lvl35 leve as a lvl50 miner/botanist
what works really well is to have your main skills 1-5 then qertfg and then use mouse button 1 as control and mouse button 2 as alt and assign on 3 bars
most mouses have 2 buttons so it's very easy to click like this and you can access all the skills
hi i started playing around a week ago, and im looking to get into some trading and raiding guild, any help regarding this
are you a lv 80 already? if not, you can still use duty finder for CT and Alexander palace
you can't be lvl 80 in a week
is there anything useful i can spend allagan tombstones on after i got all my lvl 50 item lvl 110 gear
im 62, but would like top get into the trading side early, struggling to find certain items etc wondering if theres linkshells or anything like that i can join
!faq poetics
thanks
like for instance i need 10 crescent waters hq, was wondering if theres a linkshell i can join that i can just ask does anyone have these etc so i can buy them
if it's sellable you could prob find it on the mb
have you checked all the worlds?
hmm not sure what u mean by that
you can visit other worlds and buy things from their mbs
use that to find lower prices
you can't sell on other worlds tho
hmm good tip how do i get to the other worlds
!faq worldvisit
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
go to one of the 3 main cities and go to the big crystal

How do I get rid of the keybinding numbers that are displayed on my hotbars?
(ie. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Q, E, etc.)
So I'm in the diadem as BTN level 74, trying to find G2 Skybuilders' Switch - why can I not find any?
I would like to keep the numbers on one hotbar (hotbar 1), but don't want them on the other ones lol
under settings you can make all the emtpy slots invisible
otherwise keybind settings could remove the shortcuts
for numbers
for the Atma Zodiac weapons I gotta do fates for atma drops... do I have to have the zodiac weapon equipped or can i use something else?
What is an efficient way of getting Gathering and Crafting materia? Ideally Rank 5-6 atm. I understand Hunts give combat materia. Most of what I've found points at Spiritbonding and Extracting for Gathering and Crafting, is that still true?
@spark jewel i2501 is a broad error, something is causing their system to trigger. main suggestions are disable any vpn you're using if you are, try a different browser, try using mobile data
@eternal sable 5-8 can be bought with scrips, so farming collectables is generally going to be the fastest
@twilit arch I attempted all that, I submitted 2 tickets because the first one I think I put the wrong @ at the end hopefully it is fixed
@lilac thicket you need a zenith equipped, yes
Thanks!
what's the kupo command for whm guide?
Is there any specific way to find the Skybuilders' material I actually want in diadem?
Can anyone give me vague idea of what rival wing is
are relic weapons considered BiS? resistance weapons that is
Rival Wings is like MOBA but in ff14
Fastest
@leaden ginkgo no, weapon damage beats out relics easily
Relic weapons are only the best at the end of the expansion when they're on par/better than savage weapons
oh I see, ty
@agile laurel mature trees, and melia mobs
my returners thing finally went away, how do i access Novice Network chat now?
@strange coral it's barely any of the mature trees, sadly
wondered if there was anything to it beside luck
honestly for diadem, just start at one point of an island and do laps
It's rng I believe. Best thing would be to just gather anything and then go blow up the mob for a bunch of them
you're not going to get very far specifically looking for a node/material outside of the mob drops
even if the node doesn't have what you want, just farm something then move to the next node
Can u synthetisize more of one of the same item at a time?
Quick sythn ir
Do I need to be a certain level for that?
Past.lv10
I think my laptop can't handle hidden gorge I always played with the high setting and I entered it for the first time and it immediatly crashed upon entering the map and kept crashing after map loading until the game was finished
never had any issue with anywhere else but this one time I tried to enter hidden gorge like 2 min ago
what are these for? their description doesn't really tell me what they do
Increase ground mount speed
ah i see
Question, anyone know what the fastest way to farm the moogle treasure trove event is?
if i abandon 2 beast tribe quests that i have completed but not turned in, do i get back those 2 allowances?
Question, anyone know what the fastest way to farm the moogle treasure trove event is?
@livid arrow Aurum Vale with 4 BLUs or a good group is usually your best bet
least mind numbing? probably praetorium/afk or rival wings
what would the BLUs do
or the 24-man raids
how much are nidhogg scales worth
the BLUs would be able to speed through it quite quickly because they have access to more tools
idk much about BLU but ik they can steal spells from monsters
o ok i see
but I thought BLU can only play singleplayer
or am i mistaken
They can do group content, you just need a full party when queueing up or use undersized
o ok thx
When you say full party: How many people is that?
8
4 people for dungeons, 8 for trials/raids
Ah ok
if i abandon 2 beast tribe quests that i have completed but not turned in, do i get back those 2 allowances?
@onyx kiln if you haven't submitted them you can return them for your allowances and 2 quests back

does lootmaster get all loot?
Here's a question: It has to do with purchasing an extra retainer through the MogStation.
Does that extra retainer go to all characters on the account or do you have to pick just one character?
If they choose to have it be that way
Lootmaster just means the leader chooses who gets what
@weak flume Yes every character gets the extras you buy
ty
My cousin is having a hell of a time trying to access his account. Any help would be appreciated.
His account got locked and we reset the password and he still cant login in with his email and password
Username is not the same as email address
We have tried username and email
He also cannot switch his username so none of this makes sense
Hes already played this game before
It's just acting up like crazy
What error is he getting when trying to login exactly?
Is this obtainable somehow, valentione dress
Not anymore
It looks pretty, i think I saw one valentione on mogstation, but dont think thats the one
At first it was that his account was temporarily locked. So we did the password reset and email verification and used the exact same email/new password and it's not working
That dress was from this year
@forest lark it'll be available on the mogstation next valentine's day
It may come onto the mogstation next year
Do you get moogle tomes if you join a duty in progress?
no
yes they changed that with the last one
oh hm
Is there a discord for potd/hoh statics? 
Yeah it looks like it only says undersized don’t get the tomes
Maybe try here? 🤷♂️ https://discord.gg/VREZKJe
Tyvm
Just saw something saying "you sense a powerful mark" the heck does that mean
That means the zones S rank monster has spawned
oh cool
Question, does the equip matters in rival wings?
Hey where do I buy lvl70 poetic gear? Completed stormblood campaign and can’t figure it out
Do you know who sells it?
Thanks
Thx
do all beast tribes after ARR have the same amount of needed points fto reach the max rank?
Yes
which dungeon do ya all recommend spamming for the moogle event?
Vale with blue mages
Blue mage vale run is 5mins per
oh
hmmm
One blue pulls all mobs, everyone runs to boss
Blue suicides and reses
Geta ported to boss
Rinse repeat
And you can missile shit and stuff...and blue has really good dps especially at low levels
Gathering: I notice there are a number of useful resources for finding what nodes something can be found at and where those particular nodes spawn, but is there a resource that shows all the gathering and mining nodes in a particular map? I want to hit up the clusters of them map by map to fill out my gathering log. I'd love to have a map up on a second screen and just go through them, switching to mining/botany as necessary, but haven't been able to find one
Due to having access to its skills all the time
Did they ever confirm how long the moogle event will last?
didn't they say august?
They didnt say anything
I think with just regular dailies you can literally get all the mounts
They said they aimmed mid june but got delayed by roughly a mouth
OK, so no real rush to get the mounts I see. I can just do my daily praetorium comfortably. I was stressing a bit with a guy today saying it's his 5th prae of the day >_>;
So would put it mid July
I wouldn't stress
August at latest if there's more delays
1 mo at least likely which is 300+ if you do dailies
I run daily leveling and MSQ with my DPSes that aren't 80 yet
so even if it takes me 5 days for 1 mount, I should be fine
exactly
but for those who don't have blue mage levelled, rival wings is the fastest no?
Yes, unless people start dragging out matxhes
okay thanks

is there a tech support channel or is this the best place to ask questions regarding crashes?
Hold up, the inventory is already"unlocked" for new players?? Like I don't need to buy inventory slots like the other MMO?
Retainer work as a bank to store more items and sell stuff on the marketboard
You can buy more of those
But you get two for free
So on top of your inventory you get like, a 70 slot chocobo saddlebag and two retainers with 175 slots each
ty @little swift
Okay that's a lot already I think. Thanks 
haha I thought the same when came from wow. amazing.
is alexander palace good for item drops at some point? for now it's dropping pieces I can use to acquire certain gear but none of it looks great.
I've seen people grinding extreme I think, does it have mounts or smth special?
You’re better off grinding for poetics to spend on shire gear instead of getting Alexander stuff, strictly in terms of gearing yourself up.
And yeah, extreme primals have weapons and mounts in them
How long should an Anima take
but alexander does not have extreme primals?
Woltrapz I heard people do it in 5 days with 10hrs playtime
but that's what I've been told, didn't do it myself so might be off
Alexander has savage raids
Which has stronger gear than the normal mode that’s also dyeable, along with a minion/Mount per raid tier
oh I see, so that's what people focus on then, do they all level sync to 60 too?
@crimson wind it greatly depends on how fast you can grind the mountain of poetics needed and if this is your first one.
Nah people don’t do the savage raids in DF, same with extreme trials
Would it be easier (or quicker) to finish the ARR relic (I'm only on Artemis bow Altma) and use that for the HW relic or to farm the crystals via fates?
Farming 100%
is there a way while viewing the market board to also have your retainer's window open at the same time?
no, but you can check current prices while selling through the retainer
Idk if it is the right place to ask. Anyway... Anyone know for a Linkshell that goes for Fate trains? I would like to get a few stuff from the Shops but i need to level the SHB zones. However... None is almost around anymore doing those =/
how is that done?
It’s one of the buttons on the pop-up menu when setting the price of the item
@inner mist I usually have semi-decent luck if I throw up a party finder for fate farming
ok
Guess i'll just do that then C:
Not a smart idea to throw it at 1 am but tomorrow maybe
thx
I ran unsynced aurum vale and didnt get tomestones, what did i do wrong?
Do we need to be syncedv
You don't get tomes unsynced / undersized
what is WT on party finders
wondrous tail (trail?)
you have 9 stamps to put on a 4x4 grid to get 1, 2, or 3 lines for weekly rewards
you get stamp from complete certain duties
I tried soloing a couple extreme trials yesterday and noticed I wasn't getting the echo buff when I died?
unsync...
Hey everyone! Just joined. Have a quick question: I'm catching up through Heavensward right now, and I was wondering if I should go through dungeons (i.e. bahamut) or do I just focus on getting through the MSQ as fast as possible first?
Ah right wrong word
try to focus on
and do
on the side
Long day at work
there's no echo buff for unsynced?
also do your daily roulettes and unlock CT + Alexander palace
yeah the only thing you definitely need to do is completing the Crystal Tower alliance raid quest line in ARR
it will be made a story required questline in 5.3
as it is tied into the Shadowbringer expansion
Ah ok I've actually already done CT. I just saw how... Long... Bahamut was and I was like, do I bother right now or do I do it later
bahamut is the ARR equivalent of a savage raid
anyone know the answer? might be a dumb question but it's my first time soloing duties
no echo buff for unsynced
you do get echo for unsync
it just requires you to be in the instance for a certain amount of time before you get it
my bad
Can you even do coil solo unsynced
oh really? alright good to know
yes
yes
