Make sure you did you job quests for sch
Just remember to hit Whispering Dawn once in a while
Yeah, sometimes you might have to support her but that's about it
At mid-levels, you'll have Indom, probably for AoE, Sacred Soil for large pulls, and Emergency Tactics
At higher levels things start to hurt more and you'll be stuck with your 3 uses being: Excog, Sacred Soil, Lustrate/Sacred Soil/Excog
When you reach cap, it gets better but that really depends on the tank
For trials, this is different though

can I not leave potd between the 10-floor transition and still be in queue for the next set of 10 floors?
it doesn't let me teleport
You should be able to
there's an exit portal but im worried it'll boot me out of the queue
It shouldn't
If you want to avoid DPS queues, it's boring but good
do you get a lot more exp in the later floors?
The fastest method is spamming 50-60, iirc
how hard is to tank in game? same as wow?
Tanking in this game is really easy
or is there any difference
You just hit stuff and make sure to pop your mitigation when called for
Knowing how to use Provoke and Shirk are also good ideas for harder content
i guess its easy to get groups or a lot of tanks in game?
But you're no longer required to fight for aggro vs the rest of the party
you just have to make sure every enemy is focusing on you, that's about it
it prob gets more complicated in the bigger dungeons
The population who actively play tanks is small enough that it's easy to get groups
But a lot of people play tanks for the purposes of getting them to 80
thinking of going pally
but if you're thinking about playing both dps and tank in the long run it's better to go through MSQ with a dps
Or, more specifically
i dont like to be dps tbh
pally can be dps too?
depends on what you mean..
as an official role, it cannot be a dps
but it can -deal- damage
yeah it's not like WoW where you can spec your pally as a dps
can you change the button for the camera?
to something not right click
I don't see it in keybinds
what point in game do I reach kugane?
Second expansion @stable hinge
stormblood?
So about level 60. Yeah
Thanks
Yes, to the associated job
i am looking at this rotation for sam
and im confused on what a filler phase means
and when to use it?
great thanks
@dusk zenith you use it at the end of the cooldown phase to ensure that Tsubame Gaeshi perfectly lines up with Midare
The exact filler option you use depending on your GCD
ohhhh i see
So it goes Cooldown Phase > Filler Phase > Burst Phase
Yes, as Tsubame will drift away from Midare
\o/
If your GCD sits between two of the fillers use the shorter one to avoid eventual drift
But if it’s only like 0.1 or 0.2 you should be fine with the slower filler option
okay!
ive also recently started doing eden savage raids
and i just joined learning parties for e5s
how do i tell if im parsing okay if im only using ilvl 480 gear?
a lot of the parses/dps in fflogs at this point seem to be with full BiS
if you have 480 i wouldnt worry about parse as long as its not grey
okay thanks
How do I disable auto of scenario movie text on PS4??
triangle
Thank you. I’ll try it.

is there a map of the world that shows the levels?
e.g. im level 51 and wanna know where I should go to quest/level
ah found it, http://heavenswhere.com/
@pine bluff you don't need that really, just do roulletes if you can't do the msq
And PoTD at your level
Aaah I see, fair
I might do hunts instead?
Hunts are likely better from what I know yeah, but I'm not an expert
I just know that end game hunts are a big thing, so I assumed
Just making sure, are you doing your hunting log @pine bluff ? A lot of new players miss that
Actually yeah you prolly are
Assuming you've done hunts already
Oh no? I thought you needed the GC to do hunts
And in order to get the GC to the right level, you need the log
No yeah, I meant the grand company one
hmm so I need to rank up before I can do hunts
do I just do the gc quests to rank up?
but yeah, the grand company hunting log is part of the requirements to reach second lieutenant in your grand company to unlock the hunt
yep
Also
oh ok
You have to actually talk to the npc at your GC and turn in enough GC seals to rank up each level @pine bluff
ohh ok
Simple enough to do, but maybe not obvious
are the weapons and equipment from silver chocobo feathers unique glamours?
Yeah, tho most of the good stuff is higher ranked
kk so I should just save them up to rank up
So probably better to just spend it on ranks
At the bare minimum I suggest getting to Sergeant Second Class to unlock the ability to turn in dungeon gear for seals.
which makes getting more seals a lot easier
Isn't there also another feature at a higher rank @obsidian patio ? I feel like I heard of one and thought it was pretty important
The Grand Company Squadron but they're not that vital
what's the easiest way to get seals?
Yeah that was it, ok thanks
and the hunt at second lieutenant as previously mentioned
The hunting log gives a bunch on it's own
Grand Company Hunting log and FATEs near your level are your best methods
^
Leveling Roulette also gives some as part of the daily bonus
ah ok I'll focus on the hunting log for now then
just in time to start the dungeon haha
Yeah, also in the early levels of the GC iirc keep an eye on your seals and rank up when you can, as it's not entirely impossible you'll hit max seals quickly. As you rank up that becomes harder to do accidentally
@pine bluff other thing is, just in case it confuses you- the hunting log is designed (but not often executed) to be done while leveling from the point you get it, which basically means at level 50 a lot of the mobs your killing for the log will be ridiculously easy to kill and give next to no rewards other then progressing the log. But trust us when we say it's worth it anyway, as the features you get are big
mainly gating on your GC promotions, in the case of the GC hunt log
In other words the devs intended you to be doing it from like, level 20 or so, so you'll be killing level 20-50 mobs. Don't worry about missing it tho- it's just a bad design tbh, and I'm pretty sure like half of the new players miss it xp
@leaden ginkgo yep gotcha
Also, be sure your following your GC log, not your class log- I myself mixed the two up a few times. With how little of a time sink it is at high level that isn't massively annoying, but worth knowing to look out for :p
yep yep
the class logs aren't bad either but I jsut do them as I come across the mobs
Gotcha
I had missed both pretty much by the time I got 50, which is why I mentioned
unlocked flamethrower for mch, anything I should know about it
it shoots flames
From what I heard, the entire class revolves around the ability or something so I expect it's probably important, even if that's less the case then I had heard. But that's all I got XP
When do you use NF vs RI as a warrior? I've been playing War a few weeks now and have just done NF for trash pakcs in dungeons and otherwise RI for tank busters. Is that right?
!faq rfvsri
hm
!faq rivsrf
there was a far for this i thought
wait no im dumb
!faq nfvsri
nf typically mitigates more damage through its healing than ri blocks
assuming you don't die
So basically, you only use RI if it stops you from being one-shot
or if you're in a duty that doesn't let you use NF
hey
i need help
i format my laptop, FFXIV looking for another registration code
it's not accepting from my CD list
steam
Aaahhhhh okay. Thanks!
Are you able to log into your square enix account on the mogstation? If so then can you take a picture of this part of the "Your Account" section?
👀
I'd send in a support ticket then to find out why that may have happened.
formatting your PC shouldn't have done anything relating to your account
im suspended 3 days
someone reported me because i say "heil hitler" everytime i do this o/
did you actually say that tho
i've seen worse, i'm surprised that it'll warrant a suspension
"o/" alone won't
is there a way to use the same hotbar in pve and pvp
Pretty sure not.
also pvp dosent use the normal skill actions
Saying heil hitler around randoms will 100% get you suspended
so I randomly wandered into onsal hakair for the first time ever and oh god I am so confused
not a single person is using their company chocobo, which shows me how lost I am here, haha

why cant I attack anyone?
and are you sure you set up your hotbars with the PVP actions?
I just set up the basic ones up now
yeah the red guys, im targetting them but my hotbars skills are greyed out
ohh it's cause I can't use the regular pve skils?
pve and pvp skills are completely separate
Go to wolves den pier and look at your pvp profile to see what skills you have in pvp
holy cow it gives fuck tons of exp
instructions of lifting temporary suspension was to change password but still it's suspended.
If you were banned for saying heil hitler, you gotta wait the 3 days
And remember not to say that again lol
hello guys how can i check when i need to renew the acc?
I would highly recommend you to not say those things
On the character selection screen ot should say in the bottomright corner how many subscription days you have left
You can also check on the mog station

All account-related stuff is done on the mogstation
steam is simply for launching the game.
ok and how can i renew?
i dont think i got banned because of saying that
I just assume it, but i guess ill just wait
They wouldve informed you in email im pretty sure. When i swapped from ps4>pc i was temp banned too until i changed pw, though.
Uhh guys, where does one get the 1m reward for reaching level 30?
It is highly likely you got suspended for that reason
If you continue that behaviour you'll probably end up permanently banned
Ohhhh.
no...
All right, thanks.
1mil is from getting to lvl 30 on a new world
Oh. Ohhhhhh.
of which there are none
Welp.
Wait, do I mess it up with something?
I did two times
Ope.. dont click links from strangers. Or share info.
Forum said SE blames players but multiple accounts were breached
Did the person who hacked you say those things that got you suspender?
trying to learn the difference between flank and rear
You won't be banned just by having your account hacked
I'd recommend enabling 2 factor verification if that is the case
@white moth didnt you see what i said? I said i reset it twice
enable 2factor authorization as well
That spot is so you have minimal movement to hit both flank and rear.
oh I see
Move 1 foot right youre flanking, one foot left youre rear-ing?
Can you access your account on mogstation?
Because I don't think you can reset passowrd if you're actually suspended
@shy vault just so I can look up exactly what you need, Are you trying to renew subscription or reactivating your account after cancelling it?
I mean I don't believe that you can't use your account now if you resseted password (especially twice)
This service account is currently suspended.
But you can still login to mogstation?
im in
Select Service Account
FINAL FANTASY XIV 1
Account Status
This service account is currently suspended.
Check e-mail spam folder or whatnot, they might've sent you reason why it's suspended in this case
is there a customer service phone number in this game?
How do I get Cruise Chaser's orchestrion roll?
Also I hope you were joking about "heil hitler" thing
Because it's pretty much bannable and reportable offense
@crimson wind complete all of the Alexander raid story quests
and you'll get all the orchestrion rolls relating to the fights
i said it once
normal or savage?
in praetorium
normal
If enough people reported you for that it could as well lead to suspension
Although it's really strange they didn't send you emails
Are the Alexander armor sets normal or savage? The Alexandrian looks pretty good
guys i cant unlock quest for titan extreme how can i get it?
Prototype stuff is normal mode, non-prototype is savage
Damn
the normal mode is undyeable version of savage
What kind of email you want me to get? @white moth
I only have the last one that says "You successfully reset your password" email with no links
Nah I'm saying that normally they send out emails about suspension
@inner heath Check for the quest "Primal Nature" from Urianger in The Waking Sands in Vesper Bay or for "Gale-force Warning" in New Gridania from Vorsaile Heuloix
@white moth i got that one. It keep saying suspicious activity.
completing both of those lead to "Quake Me Up Before O'Ghomoro" from Urianger back at the waking sands
i will check gale force thanks
I can duo AS with two people on any level 80 class right?
Well, now the only option is to write to e-mail support. But honestly I wouldn't because you were 100% suspended for "heil hitler" and someone reporting you for that
I think if it's your first time it might be 2 weeks 3 days
He said 3 days
if you said that you deserve it
Alexander savage should definitely be doable with two people
k
Ah alright
hey guys, so I was a mch in ShB trial which was quiet challenging and had 2 samurais, they kept dying and got a lot of flame for it... One healer even called one of the guys noob and told to quit the game as the sam died 8 times. refused to ress him towards the end... I know this is not normal as it's the first time I see this sort of behaviour but as I never played melee in ff14 yet, I'm a bit worried especially since I was planning to level a sam to get into melee. Is it really that much harder?
Then I don't see any problem
though some floors might be harder or need more people due to mechanics
Sam isn't difficult
Melee isnt necessarily harder, those SAMs are probably just trash
hmm okay so they were quiet bad then?
True as it may be, don't be an ass about it
bad is subjective
you would be bad if you were trying a class that wasn't your main
there are bad healers and tanks
What you should do is try and help them
if possible
is there a do and don't for flamethrower
i remember seeing one
or am i misremembering things
but really don't be an ass at all
there is a mch guide, soemone knows the command I think
Use it in AoE for 2+ targets.
The potency looks low, but it actually hits every second or so.
"Based upon recent suspicious activity, we have identified that your account may potentially be at risk. For your protection, we have temporarily suspended login access to this account." @white moth is that the one youre looking for
in the guide it explains that flamethrower for 3+ targets is better than spread shot but worse than the auto crossbow
iirc
theres no illegal activity in my account
spreadshot at 2+ targets, that's new
Yeah it's not illegal but it is suspicious
@thorny spruce Where did it say that it was 3 days of suspension?
Ok. So there are 2 types of "suspension". The one you get immediately on your login either on launcher or mogstation. This one lifts by just resetting your password (you just posted that message), happens if you change your location, use VPN or whatnot.
Another one is breaking rules, first offense is 3 days, then 10 then 20 days.
What do you mean forum
What forum
So it didn't say in the e-mail?
rear = side right?
Rear behind
Flank is side
im dumb
rear is behind
yeah i just got it
Good 
im not suspended becuase of hitler
that was embarrassing
Did you use VPN?
i used format
Did you login through another PC (even if it's yours)
Reformatted
I don't think it triggers suspension if it's same PC but reformatted
SE is sensitive when you change IP (ie log in to somewhere else)
Yeah I know about it, that's why I asked
Change pw shouldve solved that though
Because I don't want to backread 1000 messages up, just to clear it up
@polar hound oh geez
When i swapped ps4>pc i just changed pw and was back at it
When I swapped from PC to PS4 and back it didn't personally ask me to change it because same network :x
I just found posts of people claiming they got suspicious activity and changing password wouldn't let them in
I guess there's no live chat either?
im in airport right now, im using airport's IP address when I just got my laptop restart
Same network here too, maybe cause it was my first time on pc with xiv? Not sure, dont matter anymore tho haha
@white moth
There is no livechat atm, you know "that" virus......
Probably better suited for balance but so as to not put an idiot question there - if the optimal PLD rotation under Requiescat is x5 holy/x4 holy - confit, why does literally no pld I've come across do this?
@rich bay Yeah that's why I put "I guess". But yeah, shit happens
@forest glen
||Omega M/F|| theme
@agile laurel Because they pull with it?
It's not that one, Dreamy
For the waiting area itself it's the first phase of Shinryu
bit of a weird theme to choose tbh
but why? even if I see a pld in DF pop requiescat on trash they just do nothing
thinking back on it
while I don't see why they wouldn't x4 holy circle confit
If you pull with Holy you have enough mana to regenerate durning that little 5 second window before you pop requiescat to then use confiteor
That's question not for this channel
I mean the answer could well be DF heroes and they're all just doing it wrong
but yeah
You should be asking those people
But if you wanted confirmation on if it should be 5 holy/confiteor - yes, all the time
right. in that case I'll treat it as they're doing it wrong, context factored in
Ah okay.
It would depend on who you have in your party. If you got someone who boosts your phys attack - use fight or flight combo
I think there's a bit of min-maxing with sometimes using 3 holy+confiteor because otherwise the PLD rotation naturally drifts by 3 seconds.
If you got someone who boosts magic attack - use requiescat combo
Well, that specific instance was qitana ravel with a mnk and ast present, but I honestly don't believe they were thinking that much
But in dungeons it's usually requiescat because of holy circle straight away
@forest glen
The name of that music piece Wynne is referring to is "The Worm's Tail"
what's a someone who boosts magic attack
Only magical damage? I don't think any of them do.
ast, off the top of my head
@hot dock
401 means a client side error, clear your cookies or try a different browser.
but beside that
i don't think there's anything like brotherhood or embolden for magical though
wouldn't embolden for tanks be physical dmg?
Paladins deal a ton of magic damage
Mogstation under heavy load in EU currently due to new items and fantasia sale
Several of my FC members are unable to buy things there
@magic light Peculiar Light make everyone take 30% more magical damage
Blue Mage though
@hot dock
HTTP code 401 means Unauthorized that means there is a bad login request or the login cookie in the browser cache failed.
Incognito mode doesn't work because some login cookies doesn't persist in that mode.
I've tried it on a different computer on 3 different browsers
it's definitely server side
also if I'm logged in it doesn't add up what am I unauthorized from?
One friend had to wait around 6h before he got the peacock mount in the mail after he bought it
From Wikipedia:
"401 Unauthorized (RFC 7235)"
Similar to 403 Forbidden, but specifically for use when authentication is required and has failed or has not yet been provided. The response must include a WWW-Authenticate header field containing a challenge applicable to the requested resource.
Note: Some sites incorrectly issue HTTP 401 when an IP address is banned from the website (usually the website domain) and that specific address is refused permission to access a website.
if he had to wait that long it should be 500
@hot dock , can you try the Square Enix shop?
Uses the same credentials as your FF14 account.
I think seekheart is NA
yea I am
You can change region in top right.
like I logged in fine
I don't have anything in there I want to buy
again I'm copy pasting my creds
and my credit card info as well
so it doesn't add up

something that worked last time not working now makes no sense
I'd say just try later tonight
Items are not going anywhere and sale should still be on
This link also works for the store
also 4XX means the client messed something up, but again how can I mess something up that is copy paste, and I just bought stuff off amazon with?
401 is not server side, like all 4xx status codes.
it should definitely have been 5XX
I'm saying that error they sent
it should have been 5XX not 4XX
they are using the codes wrong
Wikipedia does note that there are sites that produce that code when the IP-adress is flagged.
also I can't buy mogstation stuff off that square enix store
it doesn't work for me
my IP address isn't flagged since I can switch my proxy
Seekheart, it is just to check if you can login at all.
That is your problem, the proxy.
@tender estuary
Is becuase you are using a proxy they might have flagged you? If they get connections from different locations they might think you been hacked or something
Possible.
Like if I connect from Sweden, and the next time I connect from India they thing something is wrong
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm gonna wait it
Just throwing out things that comes to mind
my gf had same problem yesterday
she just waited a few hours and it resolved somehow...
my only complaint is that their error page is wrong
cause it isn't client that messesd up it's their server being overwhelmed or something
401 mogstation error (not HTTP) can also mean that payment went wrong.
Even the same region can cause a flagged ip-adress. (Because the DNS resolver on the server side can't determine if it is the same user.)
Their site uses a cookie login session
that would mean when I logged in (do this first to buy stuff), the server doesn't trust the cookie it issued lol
401 mogstation error is interesting
Seekheart, the cookie can be made invalid by the server if there is some strange stuff going on according to the server security.
(Like changing IP-adress or proxies.)
That means you need to wait it out.
So uhh, when doing MSQ as a scholar, should I revert back to Arcanist to dps?
Hmm... it doesn't have as many dps skills tho
Like, if I'm soloing msq wouldn't that just makes things slower?
that's where your chocobo comes in
I mean healer will be slow to kill stuff
but that's just how it is
i'm gonna weed out habits i think that are questionable as a mch here.
should I be using gcds like drill and hotshot in large pulls?
So I should buy the greens item thingy to make my chocobo fight?
Where do I get those?
in ARR, a few specific vendors
All right, I'll look for those then. So I'll have to rely on chocobos for my dps here on out?
Drill and Hotshot is 700 and 300 Potency
Hi on free trial version I can't create Au Ra , Horthgar or Viera?
correct, they're expansion races
I'd say yes, but I'd still feel the want to send them off to cooldown
I have not done the math, but im pretty sure hot shot is worth using as it gives 20 battery, which can fuel your auto crossbow mech
possible to change race/faces etc later on if I were to buy the complete edition? or I have to make a new char
battery fuels rook
you're given a free fantasia when you complete the main scenario quest "The Ultimate weapon"
which lets you edit your character
Drill is 700 Potency, Spread is 180Pot*number of targets, so if you have 4 or more targets then spread shot is more value
hmm so i'm in dillema.. should i keep my jp char in tonberry or should i make a new char in na server?
Yeah but Drills an OGCD
ah cool! good to know 😄 thanks guys
Why wouldn't you use it
how big is the en community in tonberry?
no drill is not
oh
drill is a gcd
it's a GCD with a timer
I'm wondering if it's worth building up battery over a spreadshot
720potency or more is still more damage even tho 700 potency is extreamly good
you're not going to be using drill on AoE unless its <4 targets
because spreadshot at 4 is 720
Spread shot also gives heat
spread shot is 5heat, whereas hot shot is 20
so i think hot shot is worth using on cd but i'm not 100% sure
!action hot shot
er
battery, sorry my bad
that was confusing
yeah sorry little tired
which mount is harder to get kamuy fife or Lanner Whistle?
they're both pretty easy to unsync these days
about the same really
You need PF for dogs
does it matter if i pick the chaos or light datacenters?
No one is difficult to get, but kamuy fights tend to be longer with mechanics
bird you can solo
@leaden ginkgo About the same, but on Chaos there are more French, on Light there are more Germans
is it worth it for moogle exchange
For getting mounts with moogle exchange, we recommend Ixion
Assuming Ixion is still available
ixion is still available yeah
get ixion asap, because otherwise he is a bitch to get
what's ixion
a mount
@leaden ginkgo Louisoix and moogle on Chaos is unofficual french servers
Ixion is Angry lightning unicorn zebra
requirements for getting ixion normally
Shiva on light is unofficial german server
You need to catch a unmarked FATE to spawn in the last zone in Stormblood
so out of the mounts, ixion is the more tedious one to get
I think ill pick light then, thanks
imo ixion is the easiest one
LOL
As it have 100% drop rate
ixion is badass wdym
ye, ixion's pretty ugly

even on ffx i hated him
I mean if you can catch the fate, yes
you just have no taste in mounts 
You need to do the FATE 4 times
last summon i use
2 times*
How long will it take til i reach the point where it is worth for me to buy the shadowwarriors expac?
You only need to do fate 2 times, not 4
all i like is korporkurr kolossus
what
2 times is still too much imo
6horn for gold rank, 12 to buy mount
the horn is 12 horns
but that assumes you are in a linkshell or discord that calls out the fates
4 times if you're doing absolutely nothing in the fate
then you didn't get gold credit
then your group did nothing compared to other groups.
I was solo
that would be whyt
Yeah, that will do it
then you did nothing compared to groups
get in a party

you ALWAYS get in a party for world boss fates.

that way you ensure that you get the best reward

people are always shouting "inv pls" for world boss fates or hunts.
Atleast on EU everyone spam the /sh with lfp groups when you enter the zone
is it not like that on NA?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
oh right, there was something I noticed while doing a boss fate
I noticed the itinerant moogle had things to sell for tomestones of soldiery. I'm guessing that was a currency from the previous event, and isn't available anymore, right?
I put up a partyfinder and people were still LFP in chat, so I invite them to the party
Yep
because no one uses party finder for world boss fates.
Generally means someone sent them an invite first but they haven’t accepted yet
also that
Also I sometimes see PF used to announce the world boss fates
I've seen a few for Coeurlregina
huh.
guess that's what happens when I don't use PF for literally anything 
then again I'm not doing any kind of PF-y content like savages and extremes
the alexander fate boss you can instakill with bluemage and then no one else get any kill credit
alexander fate boss?
yeah the Coeurlregina
wait how's that related to alexander
why name it alexander fate boss instead of HWS fate boss?
yeah
that would be very confusing
it have that alexander panel thing next to it
wat
with 3 adds connected to it
wat
No wait
This fate
That FATE you can instakill with blue mage and no one else get kill credit
Put storm eye up, spam path until eye falls off
Sprinkle in inner beasts
And thats it
It basically doesn't change much
ok
Berserk when you're full/near full gauge and near a combo ender to get higher damaging hits under zerk and infuriate during it for another dhc inner beast
thx
@young fjord
The enemy itself is L59, so L5 death won't work and Tail Screw has a low chance to work before you get KO yourself. (The enemy can hurt!)
Just missile it with multiple blues all at once for the insta ko
Missle also has a low hit chance.
Thats why you have multiple blues do it
And its actually surprising how much it does proc

hm
And ofc nisi shengains 
Nisi?
Yes
Its a debuff from the Alexander raids
Lemme guess
If you have 2 different nisi, you instantly die
it kills you?
And there's 4 nisis you need to pass around and keep for 2 minutes
While doing other mechanics that force you to get close to each other
And losing one will wipe you due to gavel
As gavel requires people to have specific nisis when it is cast
yeahhh I'm not going to do TEA for a loooooong while
those weapons thoooooo
good luck getting them 
my FC leader has been doing UCoB for a month now or so and he's close to beating it now
Tfw 4 months later and slowly getting through wormhole
only 6mins left of the fight
so tanks get north and west while DPS start at east and move on?
also Puck has a tankbuster right?
Both north and west do yes
ok
North adds a stacking blunt damage taken debuff, so it needs to be dealt with after the tree
guys ppl told me that i can purchase shirogane style permits and put it in mist but i cant seem to fnd it available only 3 syles i can buy
How do I join the novice club?
Need to be invited by a mentor
So if you see someone with a crown icon
, ask them to invite you
There are no benefits to it other than being able to ask players globally about stuff
Bear in mind that some servers have a less than good reputation, so don't feel down if it's not what you expect it to be
Yeah, some Novice Networks are used as a private global chat by mentors.
Is there a limit to how much I can transfer in a certain period of time
Like after you transfer you have to wait a certain amount of days
3 days for standard servers, I think it was 30 for preferred? Maybe longer?
How are savage content diff? Do bosses just have bigger hp, or actually more new mechanics that are not in normal modes?
Savage content has significantly more complex mechanics and allows for far fewer mistakes
There's barely any aoe markers as well
So i need to be rrally, realy good to do savage content?
It is a long string of mechanical dance moves with 8 party member
Practice rotation until it is as natural as breathing + acute situation awareness
You need to know your rotation and be able to know what to do when the boss casts something
Nah, lol, just a willingness to learn should be enough
Like i said, its a test of memory as the boss does the exact same thing everytine
With little variation
And any variations have rules it follows
Hmm I see
Few exceptions, like O9S being 50/50 in which pattern it starts with
But it will still go through both
And any variations have rules it follows
I guess I'm not confident enough for savage xd
No shame for that. I, personally, will only do the occasional Extreme.
Have you tried extreme trials? They're the inbetween difficulty for normal raids and savage
I just don't have the patience and spare time to spend it on Savage.
I tried, but the queues are long for extreme, unless Im doing it wrong and should look under Party Finder instead
Always party finder
For extremes, savage, ultimate, minsitral ballad or binding coils content
I know on the NA data centers that they're primarily done through Party Finder.
Hey quick question, I just purchased the ARR standard, can I buy a 30 day subscription to extend it to 60 days?
Only JP really does Higher end content through DF but those are for people who already cleared
Yes, sub time stacks
So 30 days free + 30 day subscription right?
Yes
Im kinda wondering how do I purchase it from SE Mogstation since I'm from the philippines
They're asking for an address
What is Manufactured Coin for from Copied Factory? I don't see any vendors for that
Buying upgrade mats in eulmore
Girl next to the tome vendor does it
Wonderous sundries or something
Ah I see, Ill have to check that out cause I do have quite a lot now haha
I almost discarded it the other day
They should put some more description to the items
Do note you'll need them next patch
Dumb question, what materia level does augmented scaevan take? Sorry if there's a resource for this somewhere
As the coin from the new 24man is traded with the manufacted coin to purchase upgrade items for allegory stuff
So i should probably keep aaving them up?
@topaz furnace I don't know specifics but I've heard that a decent amount of people straight up lie about their address to make accounts and subscriptions. As long as your payment can go through, it doesn't particularly matter.
Got it! Thank you @vagrant copper !! ❤️
Other question - i assume culinarian mainly pulls from btn and fsh?
Some from miner too for salts and such but yes
Mostly BTN really
Mostly? Oh good
I ask only cause I have btn maxed and the other 2 not even touched lmfao

Ive defeated ramuh- how far am I from the Heavensward expansion?
Barely
That's like... somewhere around the half-way point between ARR and HW maybe?
^
And 2.4 and 2.5 are really big Heavensward set up patches
One could argue you are just about getting into the Heavensward story?
Hi ,how to change character apperance on a created charatcer?
you need to buy a fantasia
unless you mean simple stuff like changing hairstyles etc
for that you would need to do this quest
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Beauty_Is_Only_Scalp_Deep
ye i know but i mean the whole customization
2 more patches so aroun 200 fetch quest
thats locked behind a fantasia on the mogstation.
you do get one for free when you beat the lvl 50 MSQ
Nah. Like 40
well i just told you
Dollar
You buy via Mogstation
Spend dollar on it
I heard its an addiction. I can nowe see why
You can change a few pieces of character appearance via the aesthetician, which unlocks in limsa
What do u think ?
Which only costs gil
your first one is free after completing a realm reborn

glasses gang let's go
Glass gang 
yeah
Is fantasy tradable?
Well, that’s not nice.
the main story line must be done only once ?
There’s a new game plus right?
so if i create another char i purely go and grind monsters
Thats ok
till dung are unlocked
Progress is character based
For new jobs, you do hunting logs/palace of the dead to get up to the first dungeons
Question!
thanks
Are jobs that are available on level50 starts at level1?
no
No
Nice
but nor do they start at 50
Rdm and sam start at 50
Drk, astro and mch start at 30
So gunbreaker and dncer starts at 60?
Yes
Darknight is on ishgard rigth?
Yes
however it's also IN ishgard so it's pseudo-gated by MSQ
Ahh- well. Im just 40 fetch quest away. Wont complain
Im liking the post Arr msq than the base arr
ive been level super fast been leaving Dungeon search active while doing main story at the same time. About 30 hours to lvl 38
Wondering what class to pick up next however some ppl seem to aim at maxing all of them
No harm in trying them all
Blue mage caps at 60???
For now
Not nice

Its side content
mainly cause blu can significantly punch up so if they brought it near current content
Ok
'pretty dumb'
Ohh ok
What about red mage?
red mage's okay
Its fine
and on the other hand, a BLU who hasn't gone and learned the important spells (or doesn't know how to utilize them) will have much lower damage than a normal DPS
blu by design is significantly broken, that's why it's in the kneecapped position it is as a limited job
BLM has utility?
it's a selfish dps
at what lvl does endgame content max at ? For example in other games you want to reach the final class in order to do more dmg. Does it scale here or is endgame lvl 60 ?
BLM and SAM are by class design powerhouses that bring absolutely nothing to the group beside that
Endgame is 80 at this time
Ahhh- I still have question. ill ask after this guy^
its ok i just ask random things since im new and not much makes sense
how do people haave different icons in their names? ive seen people with an RP, with a leaf, a wierd chair? idk what that is
Leaf is for newbies thank you
They right click themselves and edit search info
They're tags you can edit in your search info
Chair is afk
oh i see, ty c:
Lemme ask about tanks!!!
They're all very close to each other
?
sad pld noises
Paladin is like second if we're being pedantic
Tanks are well-balanced.
very sad paladin noises
Everything's well-balanced
anyone can be a tank, you just have to believe in yourself, grab that aggro as a black mage and assert yout dominance
compared to other MMOs out there
its ok other games make their paladins op as heck
Keep shitposting to a minimum here emu thanks
everything is viable.
Paladin is a traditional tank: i want something tha inst traditional. You know. Tanks without shield
Gnb is a tank that is lowkey a dps...warrior is too angry to die with big boy numbers...dark is edgy warrior
(You can glamour the shield invisible btw)
war has a dps spending resource
paladin is not exactly your traditional tank , he is more between warrior and tank
ultimate tanks tend to have broad armor the weapon may differ
In terms of looks he is
paladin spends resource on mitigation and leans heavily towards a more supporting role
I wanna pounds primals with ma big ass weapon. Not bash it will a shield
such as being the only one with a targeted heal
uh hold up
PLD doesn't use its targeted heal in 99% of situations
He has that cool wing shield thing
it's for soloing.
I admit its coo
however to me all tanks in this game feel like paladin , in D&D terms paladin has less dmg output than warrior but also better defense and support buffs.
Tanks are balanced.
https://www.play-asia.com/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition/13/70b9ff is this a legit site?
Im use all of the tank. Worry not.
warrior has some pretty solid mitigation but it also has the really nasty satisfying dps abilities
Whichever you're thinking is cooler
I would recommend only buying digital from Square Enix store or Steam/PSN
well only gla/pld and mrd/war are available from the get-go, but honestly i'd just go for which you prefer the look of
@topaz furnace wouldn't recommend it but it's your money /shrug
it's not possible to start as a Gunbreaker, so I guess that makes your choice easy
War starts at lvl 1
did you say whether you were cool with waiting for drk/gnb?
cause that's a difference
Drknght> too edgy for now
if you don't wanna wait and want to start at level one, your options are warrior or paladin (in their base forms)
Im coo with that- setting goals to achieve
and since you're not a fan of sword and board style
seems you're down to warrior or gunbreaker
You're pretty close to dark Knight too
yeah but they said that was too edgy
Since youre a couple patches from hw
Noo- darknight- too edgy
The storyline is good though
then in that case i'd say get marauder and start warrior, learn tanking as a role
then grab gunbreaker when you come to it?
is there some kind of shortcut to transfer from your item to retainer's items (when you have the retainer's item window also open)
Ohh- can also do that
Like right click move to retainer?
the role of tank doesn't vary hugely in concept between them
How long does it take to level a new job?
depends
@clever cave like that, but... faster.. I gotta transfer loads of stuff lol
No other way
Lets say i play 16hours a day with an hour break evry 6 hours
there's a website detailing quickest leveling guides but i don't have it to hand
Well?
!faq altlvlguide
Thats nicee
Average DPS ratings for the tanks are something like GNB > PLD > WAR ≈ DRK
Thanksssss
Felt emo might delete later
but that also requires you to be playing at the bleeding edge of your game, in order to hit your class ceiling
before that it's a bit less relevant
Also barely relevant anyway
also true
Id say its never relevant lol
it's the top few % of minmaxing
and thus much more profitable to work on getting good
I dont follow sir
!faq meta
basically - while that dps ranking of tanks is probably accurate, it won't make much difference unless you're playing at the top of the skill level
whats the difference between selling your trash items yourself vs having retainer selling it? (not on the market board)
playing gnb does not automatically make you do more dps than a war
@pine bluff "Have retainer sell items" is just shortcut to vendoring your items from retainer menu.
