That I cannot be sure, as mine were maxed before these came out
little swift
the benefit of doing ishgard restoration is that you can turn in large amounts of collectables for exp provided you have materials
your ability to get a decent collectability will be challenged early though
ember kettle
Thank you all for the info! I really appreciate it
ember kettle
Awesome! Thanks again!

Doh, I already got my botanist to 20 the old way
So for mining and fishing I should stop at 10?

at low levels you get absurd amounts of experience so you're fine

I'm fishing in Diadem for XP
How would you guys go about maximising exp/time? Is there even such a method in Diadem?

Ocean Fishing is fun but I keep forgetting to attend lmao
wild terrace
how do non combat jobs even get exp ? or can you still bring them to dungeons ?
quartz pivot
@wild terrace you craft, if you mean crafting professions.
wild terrace
is that even enough exp to max them ? or you dont need to max them ?
twilit arch
crafters and gatherers have their own activities to level
leves, collectables, restoration

hm i see i see thanks, was thinking to pick one later but i was worried lvling might take forever

Best to level crafting in parallel, or burst after hitting 80?

What is precraft
hot crane
hi, could anyone tell me how to change the tactic of my squadron members?
whole wasp
you unlock tactics by bringing them on missions
you then change it by talking to them in the barracks
slate arrow
@wild terrace using leather in a armorer craft, using alchemist varnish in a woodworker craft, using lumber in a blacksmith craft
wild terrace
ok but what is that
hot crane
kinda impossible to tell the AI members what mechenism is
slate arrow
oh oops wrong person
@regal mirage using leather in a armorer craft, using alchemist varnish in a woodworker craft, using lumber in a blacksmith craft
hi it's 1:30 am I should be asleep

okok ty
hot crane
would the option of tactics affect the success rate of squadron missions?
if not, ill just give up command missions.
regal mirage
Where do you start, what is the crafter rotation to fulfil precraft requirements
Currently 20 botanist zero everything else
sinful breach
would the option of tactics affect the success rate of squadron missions?
@hot crane no, its the individual and total stats of the squadron members that affect the success rate of a squadron mission. The tactics affect command missions where you are part of as well.
hot crane
@sinful breach huge thanks!
slate arrow
one point for the command missions: your squadrons gets absurdly boosted HP stats
if they're dying to AoEs, disengage and position then
you can't just unga bunga faceroll without some work first
strong mica
For higher level ventures, say, 60 above, what would be a good venture to send your retainers to?
slate arrow
quick ventures or the highest level 18 hour venture
quick ventures have the potential for absurd EXP returns
sinful breach
quick ventures used to be the bees knees back in the day if you're looking to level your retainers up
slate arrow
fair enough
then your highest leveled regular hunting venture when you're online
then highest level exploration when you're hopping off
or just spam the exploration if you don't wanna have to check in every hour
slate arrow
yes
hunting is determined by item level
by the way, make sure to stock up on tomestone gear for your retainers
you can also use vendor gear for an expensive but lazy way as well
mossy tartan
As an astrologian, I’d like to know these things to know how to use my cards, as I only know how to play white mage and astrologian :
(1) which melee job is best at AoE, and which one is best for single target?
(2) same thing, but for ranged jobs
slate arrow
!faq meta
zinc orbitBOT
strong mica
Alright. I think i have spare tomestone gears i can pass to my retainers
slate arrow
the best job is the one who's player is doing the most DPS
little swift
jobs all have a fair amount of AoE skills
mossy tartan
there’s no DPS job that’s inherently better at a particular field?
slate arrow
listen when there's only two DPS players in the party you make do with who you have
raids are nearly always single target encounters
mossy tartan
I just had 2 ranged DPS in a dungeon, I kept buffing them both each turn since I don’t know any of their respective jobs’ skills
slate arrow
meanwhile AoE is only really used in dungeons
little swift
for AST all your cards give a damage boost. 3 of you cards (Balance, Arrow, Spear) give 6% damage up to melee classes. the other 3 cards (bole, ewer, spire) give 6% to ranged @mossy tartan
mossy tartan
yep
twilit arch
If you're not using ACT to track DPS, you can also use the enmity list on the party list to decide who to give cards to
mossy tartan
I prioritize giving the card to the player who will benefit from the 6%
slate arrow
here's the 95th percentile of all DPS parses in 80 dungeons
twilit arch
tho going by that is not the best way
little swift
yup pretty much
mossy tartan
If you're not using ACT to track DPS, you can also use the enmity list on the party list to decide who to give cards to
@twilit arch ohh that’s a good one, thank you
slate arrow
i guarentee you most black mage players are not that good
twilit arch
but at the end of the day, ACT is going to be the more reliable way
little swift
if all else fails you can always give cards to yourself or the tank
like in early dungeons the tank might be the only one with aoe
slate arrow
basically just give it to the role it's correct for and hope to god they know what they're doing
west oar
Yo so my friend is creating his character and he wants to play on goblin with me, but currently it’s congested, would he be able to say make it in Zalera and if he transferred at a later date would it cost him or?
slate arrow
it would cost him unless zalera became congested and goblin became preferred
vagrant copper
And that's congested congested, not "can't make new characters" congested.
Annnd, he's be stuck on Zalera for 90 days before being able to transfer
mental garnet
so how do yall deal with limited inventory space?
ideally without paying extra for more retainers
slate arrow
very carefully
vagrant copper
Sell things. Throw things away. Use retainers and the chocobo saddlebag
mental garnet
yeah both my retainers and saddlebag are full 😦
slate arrow
mostly just tossing everything you dont need
slate arrow
you don't need that HQ quest gear once you outlevel it
you don't need that quest food you got from a level 20 MSQ
junior tundra
is the ffxi event up yet

on top of that monster materials are easily reobtainable by your retainer or you

@mental garnet the Versatile Lure is an all-in-one bait, use that for the most part
hybrid rapids
Hello any idea how to get into the moogle event? Cant seem to find anything in my duty finder. New player here!
little swift
1 hour to be exact according to the time start @junior tundra
junior tundra
nice
obsidian patio
You can buy it from a vendor on the dock near the arcanist guild
mental garnet
so i've been using it if i had it
but yeah i should just use the lure for convenience
i'd save more time on not worrying about getting the right bait
obsidian patio
Catch time is based on the fish itself for the most part
little swift
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/special/mogmog-collection/202005/
@hybrid rapids so if you look at the duty list from here
you should match up what you have with whats there
hybrid rapids
“Match”?
little swift
in your duty finder > dungeons you'll see that some dungeons are marked with the icon here. those are the dungeons will reward you with moogle tomes upon completion
if oyu don't have any of the duties listed in that webpage
see if oyu can unlock some
lofty pulsar
Are the xp that retainers get in quick adventures totally random or depends on gear?
unreal aspen
are smn/blm/sam the classes that do the most damage?
hybrid rapids
Oh yeah I dont have any of the duties. So i just have to level?
twilit arch
its random, based on the item they bring back @lofty pulsar
little swift
you'll have to play more MSQ until you can reach them
your earliest one being Rival Wings, the PVP duty
at lvl 30
lofty pulsar
should I spam quick adventures for them then?
hybrid rapids
Oh okay thank you!!
twilit arch
No, do the specific one hour venture every hour when you're on, and then 18hr ventures when you log off for the day/going to be away for awhile
quick ventures exp is too random to be used consistently to level
lofty pulsar
ok

does the riding maps help flying speed too ?
last vale
btw why is samurai taken over ninja usually? although ninja offers 10% more dmg taken on boss
is the pdps of a samurai so high?
whole wasp
Riding map does not affect flying speed
lime sphinx
ok so riding maps outside of ARR are pretty much useless
whole wasp
Not that i know of. Other than the one patch where ninja was pretty bad when ShB just launched
Ninja are always in demand

and monk's raid buffs arent really needed or?
gray owl
Hello I'm new to the game! Are all expansions the same price? (I'm still in free trial and interested to play the game)
whole wasp
When 5.3 launch and flying in ARR zone, maps will be useless.
whole wasp
Buying shadowbringers(latest) will give any previous expansions as well
You cannot buy expansion individually.
Monk's raid buff is mostly the healing up.
gray owl
Ah i see, thanks a lot! 😄
whole wasp
Useful for ultimate
Pretty ok for savage
@gray owl if you are interested, buy the starter edition first.
Thats the base game.
Get to lvl 50 then decide if you want to go for expansions.
gray owl
I'm confused, is free trial limited time or have they removed the limited days?
whole wasp
Unlimited days now
Only lvl limit and social limits
Lvl 35 max and cant form party, join guilds, use marketboard etc.

How does Dancer do in 4-mans, are they stronger in bigger parties, or dot hey still provide decent numbers (with buffs even) to even-out lower damage output.

Oh, After i reach 35. I'll decide , thank you so much!
junior tundra
what are good high ping jobs
whole wasp
Most of their rotation is inherently AoE

What event
whole wasp
The moogle tomestone event
slate arrow
do duties with the moogle icon on the right
whole wasp
You get stuff for doing some low level dungeons, use stuff to buy other stuff.
slate arrow
take tomestones you earn to buy event items
moogle vendors are near the aetheryte in every ARR city state
little swift
you could consider doing Hidden Gorge, the PvP duty
it can run quite quick if both teams make a concerted effort to run it down opposite sides of the map
the queues for it aren't awful too
since it isn't role locked

Yeah, @warped nest i'm at the marketboard now - only ones aailable are liek, 60k, and way more than I need
warped nest
The best way I can think of it teleport to places that has it, and shout and see if any players nearby happen to have gatherer and are willing to grab one for you
echo tapir
maybe buying the HQ steel frypan is cheaper?

Otherwise, just level gatherer yourself

When I use Onslaught to charge a boss its on second bar, but it auto swaps to first
Then I'm on my main bat

are you using WXHB

Oh sorry I'm on controller

WXHB by default reverts to XHB after you press a button
well one of the hotbar settings on XHB swaps you back to the first set after selecting an action

You can put her armor set in the armoire

can't sell it, it's untradeable and can't be vendored.
magic light
get a 3rd bar
pine bluff
you can discard it
obsidian patio
@dense pier if you just want the audio to change then that would be in the system config
pine bluff
or just entrust it to your retainer
obsidian patio
but if you want the text to change that would be done in the launcher itself before logging in
obsidian patio
not really, you need to be completely logged out of the game.
unkempt oasis
if i discard it can i still do it appears to other armor?
obsidian patio
the event only gives her armor set and nothing else.
and you can get it back from the calamity salvagers

You need to have the item to be able to glam it, but an already glammed piece won't lose its looks because you throw away the other item

So I noticed we finally got the Shinryu crafted weapons but do we know when we're getting the rest of the HW ones? Or have those been cancelled?

I was just wanting to be lazy, I don't think I need a 3rd bar. But macros slow you down so looks like I can't be super lazy in savage raiding lol
Might get away with 2 bars on WAR too
Just remove shirk entirely
Dunno if shirk was in the game before when ARR was current but dunno why they didn't remove that but removed loads of other cool things

yeah kill the guys that ramuh summons

Is there really no way to transfer your information/details to ff window version if you bought the game through steam
vagrant copper
Correct
chrome spindle
nope
jade quartz
Steam version and DRM-free Windows version are not compatible.
chrome spindle
I am having the same problem
jade quartz
This is likely a stipulation put in place by Steam as part of the deal with SE to sell their game.
young fjord
Steam account and FFXIV are two different things I'd believe
I don't use steam version
jade quartz
Once you register Steam FFXIV to your Square Enix User Account, you cannot register a non-Steam PC version to that same account
and vice versa
leaden ginkgo
I didn't know that the window version until 5 months after playing the game.
Most people i've came across, told me that the window version is much better
jade quartz
It's not
there's no appreciable difference.
Steam version is just as good, it's personal preference.
leaden ginkgo
Okay, Thank you so much for the answer everyone o/
solemn delta
Was wondering if leveling crafts, or jobs I don't particularly plan on playing would be more important with road to 70? I have about 35 days left and I plan on getting everything to 80 eventually.
jade quartz
By all means take advantage of Road to 70 while you've got it.
obsidian patio
Road to 70 definitely makes crafters cheaper to level up with
solemn delta
I've only got about 1.2m so I don't think I'll be able to level much lol
I guess the ideal situation would be to borrow the money to power level your crafts then you have the ability to pay them back over time
Or Eureka. One guy in my FC said he made 30m in 2 weeks
Like my FC said even if you never plan on playing MNK at 80 you'll eventually level it if it's one of your last few jobs if you're playing long term lol
I'm like "Nah no point leveling a job I'll never play"
zinc orbitBOT
last vale
well until 70 its easy due to potd/hoh
but after 71 its zzz
the trust npc grind takes imho too long, because they dont real dps
solemn delta
That's why I just do roulettes for my 70+
Then if I really want 80 fast I'll dungeon grind 75-80
last vale
and queue for 20min?
solemn delta
Oh for dps classes I would just roulette
Since I already have all my dps classes I'm going to play at 80.
solemn delta
Alliance but if you get a 70 one it's not worth
Sycrus tower for sure is worth
Or Lab
young fjord
Beast Tribe also give a nice chunck of experience at 70+
solemn delta
Yeah mine is quite high rank
last vale
maybe its fine to grind dungeons as a dps, if youre like 75 because then you can queue for 71+73+75sh dungeons instead of queueing at 71 only for 1
and until 75 or at least until 73 duty daily
even if it takes more days
solemn delta
Way I see it get your main ones to 80 then just take your time with classes you don't plan on playing
last vale
my dancer is 71, i tried one trust npc dungeon but it took 35min
solemn delta
I have SAM, DRG, BLM at 80
Maybe I should level a physical ranged. Just to be versatile.
last vale
top tier class of each division
imho
e.g. ninja/sam for melee dps, dancer for ranged phys and smn for magical dps
solemn delta
Well if I'm doing any end game content people are gonna want my SAM cause that's what's getting all the BiS gear and is fully melded
last vale
if you xp with scholar then you get summoner to 80 also for free
solemn delta
But then you would never want 2 SAM in a savage raid would you?
last vale
sam+ninja then
you can check top 10 @ fflogs for endgame content
ranged dps= dancer is mostly taken
magical dps = summoner
and melee ninja for 10% boss dmg and/or sam for pdps i gues
solemn delta
That doesn't really affect my decision making in what class I make if I'm honest.

ye sure its also a question of fun hehe

i had it in my key item inventory

I'm a little confused with desynthesis
Am I right in thinking it wouldn't be possible for one person to do something like craft every single Moggle weapon? Because it requires too many types of desynth levels?
While one person can only really max out 3 desynth classes
twilit arch
they changed desynthesis so you can level them all
clever cave
Mm you could level your desynths quickly
twilit arch
being able to max 3 is no longer the case
twilit arch
they are most likely guides that were written long ago
the desynthesis change was in 5.1 or os
tropic summit
I've never seen a game so dangerous to look up guides for lmao
tropic summit
Yeah I've noticed
That would leave no shortage of confusion to help out by this channel, right? 
so to actually craft fifteen different Moogle weapons, that's 5 different Master Demimateria recipe types
Is it feasible? Am I in over my head trying to do this?
I've never even touched desynthesis before
twilit arch
demimateria books just require fieldcraft 1 and battlecraft 1 to get
you don't even need to level desynthesis for that, can just buy off the marketboard
most of the grade 1 demimateria is cheapish
tropic summit
Thank you, I know what I'm doing tonight then

I keep seeing people saying Lakeland's daytime theme is a reimagining of a theme from Mor Dhona - which is it, or am I just not hearing it?
and @zealous phoenix keep working on MSQ and your class quests when they come up

hey guys, I'm setting up a macro which would announce who I'm ressing for my whm
I've been goolging around and seen this /micon Raise
why is that needed?
would
/ac Raise
/p I'm ressing <t>
Not be enough?
twilit arch
its not needed, just lets you make the icon of the macro to be raise's icon
that's all
next wind
oh gotcha
onyx kiln
@obsidian patio late response but thanks for the macro, i will try it out.
twilit arch
and yes that's exactly how to make it
next wind
I've seen some people macro swiftcast into it
but I think it's better to do it manually isn't it?
twilit arch
Ya, its better to manually press swiftcast and then use the raise macro
little swift
Queuing issues and what not
next wind
ok thought so
sick zenith
Is there a target closest party member macro
next wind
not sure about macro but you can setup a keybind
little swift
You can use the f2 tof8 keys on the keyboard by default to target specific party members
sick zenith
Im on controller
late igloo
Controller is tough
sick zenith
Yeah ive been mastering aetherial manipulation with controller through pure force of will
late igloo
L1 + the face buttons can change targeting sets if you go into your settings and turn it on
To target "allies" only
sick zenith
Yes i know all the nuances of controller targeting
late igloo
For example
sick zenith
I dont need help there
late igloo
Hahaha
twilit arch
ah well, you can make a target specific marco
can't make one for "nearest ally" sadly
but usually healers are safe bet
so like /ac "Aetherial Manipulation" <3>
sick zenith
There. No? Shame. Thank you
twilit arch
3 being the number of the person on the party list
sick zenith
And yeah ive notices healers are best at being out if aoes lol

zinc orbitBOT
Tick, Tock, Kupo!
sick zenith
The issue is im not always near the healer
Though maybe i can fix that by being more conscious of my placement before i start my rotation
twilit arch
ya thats pretty much best you can do :\
or have an extra mani macro to like another ranged
sick zenith
Ive been experimenting with it. Maybe the healer macro is the way to go for this combined with being close enough to them
gray owl
So uh, when does the server or world accept new characters?
twilit arch
that's dependent on how many people are currently logged in
so generally its recommended to try late at night or early in the morning
when less people are logged in
wintry chasm
You are right Kael about the dpad though. left and right arrows to swap enemies, up and down for cycling the party list. Then...L1+ up/down I think for alliance
ngl it's not often I cycle alliance
polar cairn
how do you obtain special items with stars behind them in the gathering log?
wintry chasm
I assume you mean the ones where the location is simply "???"
polar cairn
yeah i think i need some folklore
next wind
guys, what's the point of the 80lv roulette? since it's a max lv anyway? (didn't reach that yet so just wondering)
wintry chasm
If it is in your gathering log you can gather it Doc
twilit arch
point of 80 roulette is phanta/allegory tomestones
next wind
I see
wintry chasm
For those ones which just say "???" they'd be timed unspoiled nodes so what you want to do is just look them up Doc xD
leaden ginkgo
what is the best way to spend tomes of phantasmagoria if i dont need for armor?
twilit arch
crafting materials, check your marketboard to see which one sells well or can just be lazy and grab like 10 of each item to sell
leaden ginkgo
Overmelding just allows me to put in more materia than there are slots. It doesn't break stat caps, right?
little swift
That's correct roq
little swift
you want sks to the comfy GCD tier first
before you go crit > dh > det
for pld and gnb, to have the correct number of gcd alignments for 1 minute no mercy/ FoF windows its 2.42 or 2.40 iirc
leaden ginkgo
Very appreciated. So it looks like I'm sitting at 2.39 already, unmelded.

I realise this is a hella open-ended question that might not even be suited for this channel so lemme know if I should move it
What does a day in the endgame lyf look like? Daily roulettes, maybe Savage? What else do people typically spend their time and energies on once they've gone through the MSQ?
hexed hinge
I just returned after a few years away, but I presume it's the same. Leveling other jobs, doing roulettes, raiding for the best gear.

@tropic summit you can also start doing all the side content you never did while going through msq. things like crafting or BLU. Searching for certain glamours, mount farming, its quite open ended you play what you're interested in
mossy current
The only thing that comes to mind is frontlines

I was told i should be able to do the company reset is all...

grand company reset?
leaden ginkgo
Should you work fire 3 into the rotation when you get it as BLM level 34?
Im lvl 33
little swift
pvp requires you to have a job stone
mossy current
Have you gotten your job stone?
leaden ginkgo
Idk what job stone is continue plz
faint flare
Soulstone
mossy current
Do your job quests
little swift
your job stone is the thing you get from finishing your class quests up to lvl30
leaden ginkgo
All of em?....
faint flare
Yes
mossy current
Yes
little swift
you get a rock
faint flare
They're MANDATORY
mossy current
Think of them as a requirement
leaden ginkgo
Wait do i have to get every class up to lvl 30????
little swift
just the class you want to do pvp on
mossy current
But can you get Frontline Roulette at level 30 
leaden ginkgo
I was just confused since the rotation guide here says to not use below 40, thanks
Every job quest to unlock the job just so i can do this daily?
little swift
yes aza you can
mossy current
Huh
faint flare
Your class/job quests aren't optional
If you havent been doing them then youre missing a ton of skills
leaden ginkgo
No like ...
mossy current
It's just 6 quests that give new abilities and gear

Ok do i have to unlock every single job quest orrrrr
mossy current
No

Finish my own personal one?

@little swift 👌 thanks
My current goal of being an omniomnijobber for all the job quests doesn't seem so strange now

@leaden ginkgo class/job quests aren't a negotiable skippable. you end up missing out on skills that are part of your job's kit
desert ravine
when do leve quests reset? the one i need just wont show up
im almost out of allowances
little swift
you get 3 allowances every 12 hours iirc
little swift
if you complete one, the list of levequests in a given area should update with new ones
young fjord
I think they removed the ability to snipe leves
So if the leve you need is not avalible to you, then you need to do a "useless one" before you get the one you want
Just picking up useless and abandoning them will result in the same useless leve appearing iirc
desert ravine
of course lmao
twilit arch
which npc are you at
little swift
this is the GC levemete at Whitebrim, Lodille btw
desert ravine

also checked volinaut\
got successful in one. i need two more
ill comeback in 12 hours no more allowance

Hey guys, not sure if this is the right place to ask but I changed my settings earlier today, I was playing on a resolution of 1280 x 720 on full screen and changed it to 1600 x 900 on borderless. I then changed my pc resolution to 1600 x 900 and game was working perfect. When I logged back on a couple of hours later, suddenly the screen started turning dark. When I’m on my desktop screen or in a browser screen it’s very bright, but when I switch to the game it started getting real dark. The only fix was for me to play it on windowed which I really dislike, anyway for me to fix it and go back to playing it on borderless/full screen?
twilit arch
no, if the item requires a folklore book it will indicate it
little swift
its just an unspoiled node
you have to grab it during its timed windows
10am/pm eorzea time
polar cairn
what do those stars mean
twilit arch
it just means its "harder" gather than other lv 70 items
faint flare

twilit arch
has higher gathering/perception requirements
open solstice
How do i do the "Let's do this" with the green red arrows? I typed then tabbed and the sentence looks weird o.o
polar cairn
where?
twilit arch
in kholusia

It becomes like this : Let's do this! Please use the auto-translate function
little swift
you also can't be lazy and use proper punctuation
if you type "lets" instead of "let's" the game won't detect your intent

when flying gets unlocked for the older regions do you think we have to gather aether again to unlock it? or will it be available at once?

Can i pick DK class normal at lvl 30 ? or i need to do some pre-quests ?

They said ARR's flying will be granted with the completion of the ultimate weapon msq

They already told us we'll get it via 2.0 story completion
green pagoda
ah, nice
young fjord
@cerulean pewter You need a lvl 50class and you need to get to ishgard in the expansion
faint flare
@cerulean pewter you need to be lv50 and have progressed the story to ishgard
cerulean pewter
Oh okej 😦
open solstice
Is it advisable to get all classes to lv35 first to fully utilize the free trial before buying the complete edition and timecard later on

open canyon
i have done this fate twice but still it says me to do it
little swift
its a what you value kinda thing
young fjord
Atleast get one class to 35
zinc orbitBOT
little swift
some people i know upgraded early
young fjord
imo just running the starter dungeons over nad over to "max" the classes can get a bit dull
little swift
i did everything to 35 :/
cerulean pewter
Can i just lvl paladin to 50 ? and try to get ishgard story as fast as possible and go DK ?
little swift
yes you can meebo
young fjord
Yeah?
little swift
keep in mind you'll likely be slightly overleveled because of teh post base game patch quests
open canyon
i have done this fate twice but still it says me to do it
@open canyon is this a bug??
young fjord
The quest to become DRK you pick up in Ishgard, so you have to progress in story to get there first
@open canyon Did you get gold in the FATE?
young fjord
You have to get gold rank for FATE to count for the event
young fjord
If there is a blue mage on the boss it will be impossible for anyone else to get high rank as they can delete it before you do enough damage
open solstice
ahh okay..hmm I'll think about it. but yeah getting everything to 35 seems tiring
no other benefits other than I can change class freely right
faint flare
Yes
little swift
you would be "maximizing" trial time
faint flare
And the experience of other roles
little swift
but if you have no interest in those classes no reason to do it
maybe your goal is to unlock and expnasion job
open canyon
@young fjord are you talking about flame sergant rank3?
little swift
in which case maximizing trial time isn't useful
open solstice
cause I read up and seems like lots of people get a lot classes up so they can change anytime
faint flare
No, you need to do enough damage in the fate to get high enough contribution
open solstice
or I could just level a few that I like instead of all of them
faint flare
To get a gold rating
little swift
@open canyon they're speaking about contribution to the fate. you need to contribute enough to get a "gold" rating
faint flare
Fates have 3 ratings based on how much you do
open canyon
ohh i get it now
little swift
@open solstice most people tend to play everything because thats what you can do but you're never obligated to.
there are some nice achievement rewards for doing it though
like the amaro mount for all 80 combat classes
open solstice
and sorry to ask this but approx how long would it take to 80 all classes? hahaha
little swift
depends on what you have available to you
if you have every piece of content meant for leveling
and you slammed your face against it repeatedly
something like a couple months seems pretty reasonable
our altlvlguide faq lists a 5 day strategy to lvl70
open solstice
ahh okay..and also there's a boost or whatnot right, according to the highest level char I have
little swift
yes the armouryexp bonus
wild terrace
how can i get to the airship platform ? im trying but all it does it send me to other locations
open solstice
does that mean I if max one to 80 first then do the alts, that would be better
wild terrace
Gridania
little swift
talk to the relevant npc to get passed the gate
wild terrace
the ticketer?
little swift
does that mean I if max one to 80 first then do the alts, that would be better
@open solstice armoury bonus is half as effective from lvl70-80 so while you would be correct to say it would be better, its far from necessary
depends on what quest you need to do
usually whoever you need to talk to has a quest marker over their head
finite ferry
is qarn better than cutter’s cry for grinding exp?

@little swift okay thanks 😄 btw I saw people with cool mounts at like lv20+, anyway I can get them?

how slow is levelling 70 to 80? im too scared im already max level by the time i reach stormblood. i dont wanna change class just not to waste exp
little swift
!faq mounts
zinc orbitBOT
little swift
@desert ravine don't worry too much about "exp waste" its not like its a finite resource
you'll have roulettes and stuff to do to get exp if you have no more msq
play what you want through msq, it makes the experience better
usually your highest level leveling dungeon would give the most outside of roulettes
desert ravine
right, im gonna finish the story by just using dragoon. then i'll start caring about another class
little swift
the items should have appeared in your inventory when you complete the venture
the reassign window is just a log window that tells you what they brought back
open coral
Check your chat log. It should show what items you received.
little swift
you should see the "view venture report" button when a retainer finishes
clicking it should get you these pieces of info
