I'm sure they know just didnt fix it yet also its like 6 AM in JP

iron mesa
You just gotta sit and wait, write support ticket or reply to the forum post and then do more sitting and waiting
fallow atlas
btw, maybe a strange question but I'm new to FFXIV and is there someone who can answer my noobish questions?
iron mesa
sure thats what the channel is for
faint flare
solemn delta
Playing GNB and I know it means nothing but how are DRKs absolutely destroying me on holding threat on boss?
fallow atlas
first question is that I don't understand the dungeon thingy the special bar that fills up, the game said that there are special skills activated with it but I don't know who's supposed to use it and when and how
solemn delta
I'm using everything in the GNB arsenal lol and still was so far behind
faint flare
Limit break fills on critical hits and when healers heal people in critical health. Or shields prevent lethal damage
iron mesa
@solemn delta if it's not bc he has his tankstance on and yours is off I assume it's because he's better geared or just a better player. On same gear and same skill level it should pingpong during bursts
zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
Use limit break via the limit break button found in the action and traits in the general tab
Limit break is shared between the party
delicate crater
Limit break priority is usually for the melee dps
faint flare
The limit break button tells you what each roles limit break does
solemn delta
We're in HoH and both 99 so that's why I don't understand
fallow atlas
so I love heaing, so mostly I can ignore it?
solemn delta
Maybe because Continuation changes GNB
faint flare
Primarily yes
iron mesa
Continuation is GNBs burst
faint flare
Healer Limit break.is only really used when you have 3 bars of limit break
As healer LB3 raises everyone.in the group
Its the ultimate "oh shit lets stop a wipe" button
delicate crater
@fallow atlas Healers only use Limit Break when the bar is full (LB3) and there are multiple members of the party dead, they will all get instantly revived
solemn delta
Yeah I'm missing those 3 core abilities during my No mercy uptime
fallow atlas
and I know that when I made my first character there was a quest to unlock the chocobo and I needed an item from the company or something, but I had to restart and now I'm already past that point and accidentally skipped it somehow, where can I find the quest or person?
@delicate crater thanks 😄
iron mesa
Most likely that then, tho in HoH I wouldnt worry too much about it
faint flare
At your grand company
night tundra
Hey guys, how do I get the ability to attach materia to my stuff?
solemn delta
I won't challenge a tank for aggro anywhere else tbh just alliance raids and HoH etc lol
iron mesa
@waxen basin when you want to renew your sub or buy crysta it shows you a list of payment methods
paypal is only available for buying crysta
not for paying the sub
solemn delta
If he wants to MT in something where we need to focus I'll let him
waxen basin
there are no paysafecard or similar options right?
fallow atlas
and my last (for now) noobisch question, what do I do with retainers? I can send them on ventures but does that do something other than give me stuff?
faint flare
Retainers are basically banks and how you sell on the market board
iron mesa
I think you can buy crysta from paysafe
delicate crater
@solemn delta For subscriptions if you play via steam you can put money in steam with paysafecard and then pay in mogstation through steam
iron mesa
wrong tag
solemn delta
Wasn't me mate
delicate crater
oops
solemn delta
Was asking about GNB threat ha
delicate crater
@waxen basin For subscriptions if you play via steam you can put money in steam with paysafecard and then pay in mogstation through steam
night tundra
So how do iget the materia attaching ability, im level 44 and I still dont have it
delicate crater
Yeah sorry my bad haha
waxen basin
DAAANG that saves my ass
faint flare
Go to the campfire over by black brush station
solemn delta
A quest but I just use the melder lol
waxen basin
i have cash on steam and
faint flare
And do Forging the spirit
waxen basin
i do not want to spend it on dota
iron mesa
@night tundra
delicate crater
@night tundra Central Thanalan (x:23, y:13)
faint flare
Or waking the spirit, one of them gives the meld option
iron mesa
funny enough im right there with my alt
jolly sorrel
You can also buy crysta with paypal, that should be pretty universal
night tundra
im there, but no quest prompt
fallow atlas
oh another question (sorry for asking a lot, but I really appreciate the help, FFXIV players are so kind)
Im interested in all the profession, jobs of the hand or land or whatever they are called, should I focus on 1, or just try and keep up with every job?
faint flare
Ideally you do all crafters and gathering
iron mesa
Are you sure you didnt do the quest yet? you can check by going to a mender in a town and talking to them
remote lintel
do them all to your hearts content
jolly sorrel
Crafters you'll want to level all of them. Gatherers you can do whatever you want
iron mesa
the crafter at 25 is something else
faint flare
Crafting/gathering is basically one big package
trail tundra
was in a run last night and healer could have saved party but forgot to put lb on their bar so we wiped at like 4%
faint flare
As many crafts need mats from other crafts and mats from other gathers
solemn delta
I'm not gonna bother with crafting and gathering with my road to 70
delicate crater
@fallow atlas You should atleast pick up all the DoH/DoL classes and try to level them as you go, each class is dependant on some material that they cant make or get
fallow atlas
Im so looking forward to fixing up a music scroll I found in a dungeon
iron mesa
really not essential to do DOH / DOL but its nice to have them some time
solemn delta
Yeah I'll do it later
night tundra
How do I check with the mender, all I can do is purchase stuff and repair
solemn delta
Problem with Road to 70 is gil
iron mesa
i leveled my gatherers first and kept things i might need in the future then i leveld my crafters after
delicate crater
I started doing crafts when i got 1k hours on steam
fallow atlas
I was looking forward to grinding and farming mats, but then my game broke
waxen basin
out of morbid curiosity
remote lintel
@night tundra they mean materia melder
faint flare
Find a melder npc, they're in all major cities and hubs
waxen basin
anyone plays on linux?
solemn delta
Unless you have a friend who can borrow you the money to power level everything
Your gonna struggle
delicate crater
@solemn delta Leveling crafters/gatherers to 50 is really easy with ishgardian restoration and eureka right now
iron mesa
with ishgard lvling them is really really easy
delicate crater
not even that expensive
solemn delta
Yeah don't even need road to 70
iron mesa
I suggest gathering things in diadem, then just do the crafts for ishgard and get lvl ups and then do the jobquest when youre a bit overlvld for it
solemn delta
So I'll just do classes and jobs
waxen basin
btw I am leveling and npcs give me option to get a equipement or Allagan Tin Piece
fallow atlas
I have these free teleport items, should I just use them whenever or will teleporting become expansive later on, because it seems so cheap most of the time now
waxen basin
is one superior to other?
remote lintel
if the equip is better get it
waxen basin
and I should hoard Allagan Tin Piece
remote lintel
tin pieces dont give a lot of gil iirc
solemn delta
It's basically all you spend your gil on until 80
delicate crater
The pieces are for exchanging to gil if you dont need any of the item upgrades
solemn delta
Or you start a craft
waxen basin
so it is sellable trash?
delicate crater
yea
fallow atlas
@waxen basin are you relatively new too?
waxen basin
3 days new
solemn delta
So, teleport until your hearts content.
I don't even use return lol
delicate crater
Thats like a lot new
fallow atlas
@waxen basin awesome, I havent played much either
delicate crater
Remember to favorite the aetherytes you use a lot of, you save thousands of gil in the long run
fallow atlas
Iv put most of my hours into the card game, it's addictive, I just got the first restriction lifted where I can now use unlimited 2star cards
solemn delta
I always go back to ul dah so that's mine
delicate crater
Limsa is a must so you get the benefit of closest marketboard and retainer + a fast way to get to waking sands
iron mesa
Also it's wise to choose a datacenter on what you think you wanna focus on at the end
so you dont have to swap
solemn delta
Plus FC and hunt LS shouts etc
iron mesa
while all data centers are balanced, some have preferences
night tundra
the Materia melder says that I dont have meldable gear, but my stuff have materia slots, im confused
solemn delta
Limsa is like the hub
waxen basin
oh are there superior servers/worlds to others?
solemn delta
Take it off
remote lintel
no
iron mesa
not superior no
solemn delta
You need to unequip
night tundra
nvm
iron mesa
but there are more certain groups of people on some
remote lintel
just preferences
waxen basin
some are maybe less dead or less raid centric?
iron mesa
theyre all about the same amount of lively, but yes some are more raid focused and other more chill / rp focused
fallow atlas
oh another question, the monsters on the company boards, are they doable for a level 30?
remote lintel
depends on their level
faint flare
No, everything is cross server so everything is down to data centre
solemn delta
Even tonight on Light I'm seeing tons of savage raid on PF
iron mesa
yeah why i said datacenter, the sevrer doesnt matter at all
iron mesa
If youre on EU its definitely Chaos for raiding and light for softer raiding with more chill people
solemn delta
I'll be in a static though
fallow atlas
@remote lintel is there a way to see the level? or am I just blind when looking at the posting
waxen basin
I went CHaos
night tundra
What happened to the Materia assimilation skill I have read about?
remote lintel
uhhh im pretty sure you could look up the levels
iron mesa
I'm on Chaos too its in my personal opinion better for what I am looking for
solemn delta
Materia assimilation is just doing it yourself right?
waxen basin
I have terrible memories from rp severs in wow
night tundra
yeah
solemn delta
I just use melder
delicate crater
You can't overmeld with melders though
remote lintel
if you want to materia meld yourself then you need a crafter with a high enough lvl
for the gear you want
solemn delta
Overmelding is pretty meh isn't it?
iron mesa
The main RP central in FFXIV is definitely crystal on NA
solemn delta
Cost versus bonus
delicate crater
Really needed when doign savage content/crafting 480 gear etc
iron mesa
^
for everything else its not necessary
crafted gear is ALWAYS good enough from an ilvl perspective for all content up to EX
faint flax
Are monk and ninja both viable dps roles?
iron mesa
yes
faint flare
Yes
faint flax
Can’t decide between them
delicate crater
All roles are viable^^
faint flare
Everything is viable
solemn delta
They are harder to master though
remote lintel
monk isn't really
faint flax
Are all the melee dps pretty balanced?
solemn delta
Probably the 2 hardest MNK being pretty crazy
iron mesa
what to take depends on what youre looking for playstyle wise
faint flare
Every job is pretty balanced
faint flare
This aint wow where balance is non existant
delicate crater
You should check some youtube vids and see what interests you the most
solemn delta
Everyone I know says monk is bonkers compared to most other classes lol
iron mesa
I've got both MNK and NIN on 80 and played both in EX and Savage content and personally I like MNK more because I have a bad memory and I just dont like the jutsu system for NIN
delicate crater
Just dont pikc bard as your main, you will cry and be jealous of other players big numbers
iron mesa
but ive heard many say NIN is more fun to them
delicate crater
Bard is my main
iron mesa
cries in bard
delicate crater
love and hate relationship
solemn delta
Ranger should have been a class. Change my mind lol
iron mesa
our e8s gave us 2 bard bows in a row 2 weeks......
solemn delta
Like a job.
remote lintel
you mean archer
solemn delta
Archer - Ranger
iron mesa
Bard is just advanced ranger
remote lintel
ranger is too generic
delicate crater
Bard has more class to it
faint flax
I’ve checked out monk and it seems pretty fun and I like the style
The positionals seem fun
iron mesa
I take MNK over NIN as said but i suggest you start with MNK and you can still accept NIN as you go
remote lintel
i got monk for the glam 
delicate crater
Then pick MNK, you can always swap to NIN if you didnt like it
solemn delta
Different opinions. But they couldn't put bard in as a standalone job
iron mesa
since you can have all jobs on 1 character
faint flax
Fair enough
iron mesa
(terrified chanting as the whole party dies)
keen storm
still the launcher problem
delicate crater
Bard is really good job as it is and the transistion from ARC is good, just feels bit underpowered and it shows in rDPS a lot
fallow atlas
when you get the crystal to upgrade your class, is there still a use to playing the 'old' class without the gem?
remote lintel
yes
iron mesa
still a job you can clear savage with so ..... as said, all jobs are good
remote lintel
just remove the crystal
leaden ginkgo
anyone else got problem mit mogry store?
remote lintel
but also why would you
jolly sorrel
I don't know about a "use" for it
solemn delta
Think he meant that mate
iron mesa
Yes Sinpai it's as bugged as the launcher atm
remote lintel
then no
leaden ginkgo
any official statements?
solemn delta
Once you get it never take it off
iron mesa
Not yet sadly
leaden ginkgo
:((((
iron mesa
or youre like me and take it off by accident and queue into lvl 80 content
solemn delta
Also remember one thing.
iron mesa
and then wonder why half your skills are gone
solemn delta
When you equip your crystal. Your hotbar is gonna go to shit
Memorise or screenshot your bar before changing
fallow atlas
@solemn delta i noticed that after a few hours that I didnt lose skill, I just had to add them again 😛
solemn delta
You don't hsve many abilities but it still annoys me
1,2,3 AoE if your lucky and a few buffs at 30
fallow atlas
@solemn delta if you play on different computer it doesnt save that bar either, 😛
solemn delta
Unless your a poor DRG no AoE's until what, 44?
remote lintel
like 30 something
faint flare
40
warped roost
What meal is best for Gunbreaker right now?
iron mesa
sausage and sauerkraut
faint flare
!action Doom Spike
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
faint flare
40 for drg aoe
solemn delta
Depends also on gear no?
remote lintel
i thought there was one that was a jump and then an explosion when you come down?
solemn delta
Might need sks etc. I haven't got my gnb to 80 yet
faint flare
!action Dragonfire Dive
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
remote lintel
ah
faint flare
That jump is 50
iron mesa
We've used sausage and sauerkraut from the start on but you could also use highland cabbage as an alternative i believe
jolly sorrel
So this ishgard crafting project, is that like in stormbringers where it goes on my pace, or is it like mor dhona where if I wait it just happens server wide?
iron mesa
wouldnt recommend though
solemn delta
Yeah it's brutal as a drg on big pulls lol
faint flare
Ishgard is server wide
solemn delta
Feel absolutely useless
iron mesa
Meele AoEs in dungeon are EH below 50 anyways imo
jolly sorrel
Thank you
iron mesa
SAM is pretty insane though compared to DRG in damage output on bigpulls
solemn delta
Dunno I do everything right but spellcasters make me look bad lol
wintry sable
I got the 500 commendations achievement but the mount is nowhere to be found. Not in the mount guide nor in the inventory :/
fallow atlas
what level do you need to be to try those giant elite monsters roaming around?
iron mesa
I've done EX on SAM but .. my heart stays with DRG since ive started the game LOL
solemn delta
SMN and blm just take the piss out of me
iron mesa
depends on which lunessi
iron mesa
Casters have very good AOE we meeles have it harder LOL
wintry sable
Alright thanks ^__^
next wind
guys I just completed the quest "Primal Nature" which supposed to unlock a npc for howling eye extreme in gridania
iron mesa
SAM is more broken than BLM though
next wind
but the fella is not there
iron mesa
worst is SMN still why are they so strong
delicate crater
@fallow atlas You mean hunts? Usually they are done in groups of people
solemn delta
Yeah at 480 no over melds I killed E8S dummy with like 20 seconds remaining
Rng though
jolly sorrel
From what level can I contribute to the ishgardian crafting project?
remote lintel
20
faint flare
20 for crafters
fallow atlas
@delicate crater yea, I 'helped' a group kill one, by healing 5 hp per cast, those guys laughed but were cheering me on aswell, it was so much fun
jolly sorrel
Wow, fancy. Is it a good way to level, too? Or what's the tradeoff?
solemn delta
No but its good practice
jolly sorrel
Awesome.
twilit arch
its good for building muscle memory
faint flare
No real trade of
solemn delta
Yep
faint flare
Just need to get your gear
modern coral
I was looking up raf benefits on mogstation site of sqenix, it's prompting me to "transfer" my trial character over to the retail version, is this something I've got to do after getting to lvl 35 on a trial version in order not to lose that character?
twilit arch
thats about it
wintry chasm
You can get the retail version whenever and not lose anything
iron mesa
You have to own the game to transfer a character
wintry chasm
You don't have to hit anything
solemn delta
Muscle memory is important though when your dealing with 10 mechs at a time in savage lol
jade quartz
You have to buy the game to be allowed to generate or enter RAF codes.
twilit arch
sure, but saying SSS metrics are kind of...pointless
solemn delta
Yeah you can get massive rng and kill it with shit gear
modern coral
Oh so the 30 days of gametime that come with the complete edition, doesn't actually count toward raf rewards?
iron mesa
also you have to look out for nothing in there
so its rly just a damage check for urself
solemn delta
No movement
jade quartz
The time window for redeeming a RAF code is the thirty days of free sub you get for buying the game.
twilit arch
SSS is also weirdly tuned
jade quartz
That’s correct@modern coral
solemn delta
I was surprised rdm have the highest hp
iron mesa
why would RDM have the highest HP
solemn delta
SSS
faint flare
Because SE weird tuning
iron mesa
OH THATS WHAT YOU MEAN
iron mesa
I probably just zoned out for a moment
mild ermine
This fate I need The Enmity of my Enemy won't spawn.
solemn delta
I freaked the first time me and my friend tried it and he killed easily on his WHM and I was struggling and leaving it with 10% haha
mild ermine
I've been looking around for a few hours now.
solemn delta
Didn't know they were all tuned to each class
solemn delta
He just spams glare and dia 😂
twilit arch
the fate "The enemy of my enemy" needs to be completed in order for that one to spawn @mild ermine
also only so many fates can be up on the map at a time, so clearing the others out can help get with spawning
vagrant scaffold
Are we only getting new jobs from now on? No new classes? Why?
twilit arch
because classes are a relic of 1.0
and yoshi-p would do away with classes entirely if he could
jade quartz
What does tying in new classes to the new jobs actually offer?
fallow atlas
what is the difference between a job and a class?
jade quartz
Just a different name for the first few levels
faint flare
Functionally no difference
iron mesa
well back then you had to lvl 2 specific classes
to unlock 1 job
for example for DRG you neede Lancer and Monk on 15 to unlock dragoon
faint flare
Job and classes are mostly interchangeable
iron mesa
nowadays its just from lancer on and so on
faint flare
Language wise
fallow atlas
@iron mesa that sounds fun, why did it change?
jade quartz
It wasn’t fun
iron mesa
Because it wasnt fun sadly
jade quartz
So it changed
faint flare
^
iron mesa
it sounds better in theory than it actually is in game
faint flare
You basically HAD to level other jobs otherwise you missed very key skills
In your kit
iron mesa
^
iron mesa
and you only had msq for your main job
means everything else you had to grind
with mob killing, fates, quests
fallow atlas
@faint flare ah that does sound awfull I quit WoW because it made my gear kill me because they forced me to do a questline I didn't get around to yet
jade quartz
There was no road to 60/70 either
faint flare
And you need to level 2 jobs other than youe main as well, as each job had skills from 2 other classes
vagrant scaffold
I realize that having arc split into 2 was causing some issues due to stat distribution and some other things but I still like the idea
solemn delta
Can I find out how long I have left on road to 70?
faint flare
Arc splitting was a major balance nightmare for the entirely of heavensward
iron mesa
the idea was great on paper for the job and class system but the execution was annoying
jade quartz
That was the biggest pain in the ass of all
solemn delta
See when I made my char?
iron mesa
when does road to 70 even go away
twilit arch
usually storyteller 1 is the first achievement people get
jade quartz
Road to 70 expires when 90 days have passed and the server is no longer preferred.
Both conditions must be filled for it to go away.
remote lintel
you get 30 free days tho
remote lintel
i guess you could do some math with how many days you have subbed plus the 30
dusk zenith
whats the fastest way to cap out on allegory for the week?

Hunt trains

okay thanks!
twilit arch
log into the lodestone and then click on your character name in the upper right hand corner. there's a drop down menu, click on the achievement section

guys for the rolling system, the lower the number the likely you're to get it or the higher the number?

Higher
remote lintel
what
next wind
okay lol rip minion
next wind
i've got no idea 😄
vagrant scaffold
If it were a rank
dusk zenith
For hunt trains, does it matter if its SB hunts?
or do they have to only be ShB for allgeory?
faint flare
Shb hunts
dusk zenith
got it, thanks!
vagrant scaffold
Going back to the jobs/classes discussion, thinking on it, I guess I feel a little overwhelmed when a job starts off already leveled and so I defaulted to "it would be nice if they started out as a class so I could ease into it" but I guess dancer starts at 1 right?
little swift
expansion jobs don't start at lv1
hw jobs start at 30, sb jobs at 50, and shb jobs at 60
remote lintel
you won't be overwhelmed because youll already be at the lvl of the job you unlock
solemn delta
30 days left thanks
remote lintel
it's not like they just throw a whole bunch more skills at you
solemn delta
And I wanted to play Nioh 2 and FFVII lol
leaden ginkgo
Can you have an apartment and private chambers in a FC?
faint flare
Yes
solemn delta
Looks like I'll be focusing on job leveling
next wind
I just did "Primal Nature" with Urianger but the howling eye npc in gridania is nowhere to be found
what am I missing?
I have howling eye hard unlocked
solemn delta
I don't want to level MNK, NIN DNC etc but my FC said I'll regret it later once my buff is gone
A lot of them wished they took full advantage of it
remote lintel
@next wind screenshot?
zinc orbitBOT
remote lintel
if you dont want to level a job then dont
solemn delta
I know ill never play MNK or NIN etc
And im not one to care about having everything at 80
Like a lot do.
leaden ginkgo
And to double check
Private Chambers are smaller?
next wind
according to the wiki the npc should be here
Vorsaile Heuloix, quest name Gale-force Warning
twilit arch
did you actually talk to the npc, he gives multiple quests
so only one shows up on the map
next wind
oh okay I just looked at the map and quest description
solemn delta
Yeah sometimes a level 1 quest will be the + one
next wind
if I talk I get only one option tho
solemn delta
But they will have 4 or whatever
next wind
solemn delta
Then your missing a pre req
junior yacht
have you completed the prerequisites
next wind
according to wiki I only need to complete primal nature
remote lintel
did you get titan ex
next wind
no
next wind
oh they need to be done in order?
remote lintel
yes
twilit arch
no, titan ex is after garuda
next wind
remote lintel
??
twilit arch
garuda > titan > ifrit is the ex order
next wind
so all extreme trials including other expansions need to be done in order?
leaden ginkgo
Nk
twilit arch
no, its specifically the original 3 that require certain order
leaden ginkgo
Only those 3
solemn delta
I thought titan was before as well but I soloed them all
So I don't remember really
remote lintel
idk what other prereqs there are then
solemn delta
Relog maybe? I'll have a look
next wind
okay I'll try garuda first then titan, thx
solemn delta
Yeah just gale force warning
I had no issues
Maybe go back to urianger just in case he has anything else for you.
That's what i would do
leaden bolt
So this is a stupid question, but I’ve had people get caught up on this. Did you complete Garuda hard mode? The ex won’t unlock unless you complete hard as far as I remember
solemn delta
Yes you need to do each difficulty to unlock the next
If you have an 80 you can just solo them though
next wind
okay thx for everyone's help, seems I had 1 beer too many and somehow cancelled the primal nature quest and I thought I completed it I was able to pick it up from Urianger again
yea I'll do that
solemn delta
Boom
remote lintel
leaden bolt
Ayy, that’s a quick fix.
next wind
lol, need to go easy on that beer..
for soloing - does it matter if I use mch 480ilvl or better to go with pld 430ilvl?
remote lintel
just do 480
leaden bolt
Either will melt it.
remote lintel
kill it in a minute
solemn delta
MCH cause you'll kill the add mega fast
next wind
pld is better for 60lvl soloing isn't it?
remote lintel
yes
next wind
thanks
solemn delta
Pld is best solo
Whm second I think
Some can just be burst by dps
But ramuh killed my SAM
leaden bolt
You still have to grab orbs in Ramuh if you play DPS
next wind
I've been thinking to buy 480ilvl from the mb for my pld, but someone suggested grinding memoria might be better and quick to get ilvl 485, is that true? or would it take hours?
faint flare
It would take time for ex
next wind
oh yea, but got 5 slots
iron mesa
the headpiece on PLD is the best for PLD overall
solemn delta
And yes it's harder much harder
faint flare
For clears and being lucky
next wind
okay, I guess mb is the easiest then, thanks
iron mesa
definitely easier memoria is just overall better but takes way longer
obsidian patio
Weapon is super easy to get if you’ve already done the stormblood 24-man story
next wind
haha okay, just a bit expensive coming around 1mil per set
with server hopping I was able to buy for 850k for my mch
solemn delta
Whoa
next wind
but still
remote lintel
have you done eden?
iron mesa
a friendly suggestion is to get rid of everything through eden that as skillspeed on it
next wind
I did the first part of eden on normal
iron mesa
on physical ranged
solemn delta
Do second
iron mesa
verse eden obviously yes
next wind
it drops 480?
next wind
okay I'll want to do that anyway so will do that first, thanks guys a lot! so many things to know after finishing msq xD
next wind
alright, I'll now make some notes so I don't forget all of this and try to put it to practise 🙂 cheers!
next wind
yea that one is already on the to do list 😄
crimson crystal
What's the best way to get gear for my carpenter? Only level 18, but struggling to make the simplest things
little swift
class quests provide 1 piece, you can supplement that by leveling several crafters together
iron mesa
the best suggestion is to lvl all your crafters next to each other
then you can craft yourself good high quality gear for each of them, or if youre in a free company you can ask them if they can craft some gear for you
north venture
So, someone in my FC would craft me Neo Ish gear but I need to get the mats, I can buy it but all the mats in the screenshot are confusing me, what list should I get?
iron mesa
but usually you want to level them all at once because theyre dependant on each other. I also suggest to level gatherers too to save money on having to buy materials in the future
solemn delta
People in your FC are harsh I just pay half MB price and our local lovely crafter makes me a full set for 300k lol
Haha not harsh but you know what I mean
smoky glade
to get aetherpool grip should i join potd starting at floor 51?
north venture
well can you tell your local lovely crafter that I am your friend and want a set lol
solemn delta
Haha! She honestly crafts so much stuff for everyone its nuts
Why I don't want to max all my crafts 🙄
Seriously when they gonna give us something to do with tombstones of Phantasmmagoria I've been capped since I can remember
Might check for glamour
north venture
thanks Cerberus, what tool is that if you don't mind telling me ?
clever cave
Ill buy your 2k phantasmagoria for 120k gil
solemn delta
How on earth does that work
faint flax
Can I try out rogue/nin on a trial account?
faint flare
Buyer tells you what they wabt
clever cave
You buy the mats and trade
wintry chasm
Yes Chuck
remote lintel
@faint flax yes
faint flax
Nice ty
solemn delta
Ah mats yeah
wintry chasm
You just have to reach level 10 on another class and do it's level 10 class quest and you can unlock it in Limsa Lominsa
solemn delta
I'll check MB see if I can make a little
north venture
what is the most common MB people go for buying stuff?
solemn delta
Thing is yeah your right, but I don't plan on leveling any crafters
wintry chasm
....they are all the same Jhinox
solemn delta
And I get crafted gear for half price
wintry chasm
well, the marketboard is different per server
obsidian patio
Probably glamour prisms in terms of mass items being traded
north venture
oh really? I thought every city has it's own board
wintry chasm
but that's it
solemn delta
But next tier crafted stuff will be pricy
wintry chasm
It's all connected to the same thing in a server Jhinox
It's just access points basically
remote lintel
what do you mean you dont plan on leveling crafters
north venture
oh I See, thanks Cali
remote lintel
you sell raw mats
smoky girder
Hey, is this a controller issue, I have a ton of trouble using R2 commands on my ds4
solemn delta
Yeah I know what I meant is I don't really need gil for anything lol
But yes it's a waste
clever cave
Ppl be saying that but cant support themselves later when needed
You DO need gil lol
wintry chasm
Probably Fly? Using R2 isn't a hard thing
remote lintel
do you only buy crafted gear
wintry chasm
Can't say what you said was the most descriptive though
remote lintel
and nothing else
remote lintel
so you dont really level any other classes
solemn delta
I do I'm constantly leveling
But with road to 70 I don't need any gil
Poetics + by the time I get to 80 I've made enough for a full set of crafted gear
It sort of rolls around each time
clever cave
..
remote lintel
you make money just by doing roulettes
solemn delta
Mada. I'm not disagreeing with Cerberus that using the tombs for gil is not a good idea?
clever cave
No i just think you are assuming crafted sets will always be this cheap
As well as food and pots
solemn delta
No next tier they will be more expensive and the tier after that
remote lintel
sounds like it will chip away at your funds eventually but if you wanna do that then ok 
clever cave
But thats ok, if you can be sufficient its w/e lol
I would never rely on someone else just to cheap out
solemn delta
I didn't before, but she shouted at me DON'T BUY FROM MB lol
She used to do 1/4 price but had to up to 1/2 cause 3 of her friends transferred over
remote lintel
maybe she's playing you all
getting rich off people buying from her
doesnt sound like a bad idea tbh
solemn delta
Isn't Eureka a really really good way of making money?
remote lintel
i avoid eureka like the plague
clever cave
same i avoid lol
solemn delta
One guy said he made 30m in 2 weeks
remote lintel
maybe i will stop avoiding eureka
clever cave
mad about someone getting a cosmetic?
or mad about someone getting rng and making some gils
solemn delta
Like, mad as in they love it so much
clever cave
oh
clever cave
ya it is, sry but this is getting off topic
solemn delta
Yeah back to questions I'm off back into HoH anyway.
leaden ginkgo
Eureka is a decent way to make money
If you can get the drops
Like the mounts or the accessories
Or the other shit it dropa
solemn delta
I actually have one. Why does NIN have their own set of gear? I've not looked into the sets or anything but do they not share stats with any other class?
Yeah.
leaden ginkgo
Ninjas use dexterity
solemn delta
I'm assuming they are DEX?
leaden ginkgo
But they're melee
faint flare
Because they're the only melee who use dex
solemn delta
Yeah and physical ranged don't use same sub stats?
obsidian patio
Ranged DPS only share with ninja
leaden ginkgo
Scouting is just melee aiming
On this topic
Drgaoons have maiming gear but share accessories with the rest of the melee dps
solemn delta
Yeah I've got DRG 80
remote lintel
i cant decide whether to use a macro for rezz or not
leaden ginkgo
Don't use a macro if it has swiftcast in it
solemn delta
I've been told to but I'm not making an annoying one like most do
leaden ginkgo
You can make a macro 5hats like
solemn delta
Just a simple one
leaden ginkgo
/ac Raise <T>
/p raising <t>
leaden ginkgo
But honestly it isn't really that needed
I've kinda just stopped using my res macro
solemn delta
That's what i was thinking
But your right, you need to rez fast in high end content especially
next wind
but isn't macro helps other healer see you're ressing so you don't double up?
esp if using swiftcast?
solemn delta
That's the idea
twilit arch
in my experience, it doesn't really make that much of a difference
either your co-healer sees the swiftcast buff on you and knows not to raise
or they don't and they raise anyway even if you have a macro that has text
so a text raise macro just became spam ultimately
willow cipher
I'm debating removing the chat line from my macro as well since I don't know if it's useful or not
I used to have a se to accompany it but found out that it gets annoying real quick so I dropped it
But without the s.e I don't know if the chat line alone is enough to make it useful or noticeable especially in messy situations
sour spoke
Does anyone know how this error can be fixed?
I already looked at my firewall, tried to open it as admin and restarted my PC.
Friend of mine actually has the same issue
strange coral
EU has been having issues today from what I'
*I've heard
Some have suggested using a VPN if you can
sour spoke
I have that issue for a couple of days know though
On my other PC it works fine
PS4 too
next wind
I get ifrit to like 4% and then do 0 dmg xD
do I need to destroy all the swords before I can do dmg? in the extreme?
sour spoke
Yes
faint flare
Yes
raven sage
It's the same in all modes
faint flare
He only goes immune in Extreme
When nail spawn
So people wouldnt actually push when farming unsync
next wind
lol barely made it on the 3rd try with my mch
woeful idol
@sour spoke I haved this same problems too today, i restarted my router 2times and my pc and then that was good
solid canyon
does anyone know if there is an aggregate site i can go to that offers services for designing the interior of my house? or are there only personal websites that i have to google?
*designing and placing/actually building out the interior
obsidian patio
No single site that I know of
obsidian patio
I never kept track of any as I like my own style of decorating
solid canyon
ah
zinc orbitBOT
sour spoke
@woeful idol I found a way easier solution thanks to my brother
You open up cmd.exe with windows + r
and type in ipconfig /flushdns
after that you can re-open the launcher and it should work
woeful idol
It didn't work for me :/
sour spoke
Ok that's weird
I just restarted my launcher and now it does not work for me either
Guess we will just have to wait or use a vpn for a second
woeful idol
What an horrible bug
lean dragon
Any help on new character names?
jade quartz
latent bloom
Depends on how serious you are about playing the race.
lean dragon
I'm changing from Male Hyur (I'm tired of seeing people that looks just like me) to Viera
jade quartz
That seems like backwards logic but you do you
As Viera are extremely common amongst players
latent bloom
^
lean dragon
They are common but you can notice the differences between them
But in Hyur Males everyone got the same hairstyle, face...
I've been like two hours thinking about the name, using name mixers and generators
latent bloom
Depends. Mid or Highlander
latent bloom
I know, i meant previously.
lean dragon
Midlander
warped nest
If you want to be very unique, you can try for female rog, or horthgar
Or even male elf
lean dragon
I don't really need advice on the character itself but the name xD
latent bloom
This should help
jade quartz
Viera naming conventions are just “whatever you want”
latent bloom
Honestly, Lyon is right.
lean dragon
@latent bloom I had a look at that before and no luck
warped nest
Pick a random Viera NPC and use their name?
lean dragon
That's how y'all choose it? xD
latent bloom
You'd be surprised how common that idea is and how many go ahead with it.
warped nest
I just use my go-to names for my video game characters
I can live with not following lore accurate naming convention
remote lintel
cause I still wanted her to be nature-y
solemn mulch
or should i wait
remote lintel
gotta wait
solemn mulch
ohh thank you guys
next wind
are extreme trials weapon drops way more rare than mounts? I've got 2 mounts in 4 trials but not a single weapon
solemn mulch
ill try late in night
faint flare
Post ARR extremes always drops weapons
next wind
really, how come I didn't get one 😮
faint flare
Most arr extremes, mainly the the first 3 usually have accessories
next wind
I've got like rings and other gear
ohhh okay so the first three I've done don't drop weapons
latent bloom
Yes
raven sage
The hard modes have the weapons for the first 3
faint flare
Yes
next wind
thanks
crimson wind
For the last part of the anima weapon can I just equip my weapon before leaving?
late musk
blacksmith or armorer?
remote lintel
both
late musk
@remote lintel i can learn both?
faint flare
You can be everything
brazen hawk
Currently having Problems with the Login. How often does these problems occur and how fast they are fixed?
next wind
never had login issues since I started playing
brazen hawk
Yeah i read it on reddit. Its already about 20hours for me. I cant accept the usage of a vpn for a mmo login, thats because i am asking.
obsidian patio
@crimson wind for the i275 step? I think equipping before leaving works
late musk
how do i get rid of that red monster slayer gem in the middle of my screen?
strong sphinx
once I get the 390 Gear at lvl70 what should I do with the old one?
remote lintel
what gem
jade quartz
@late musk can you show us what you mean?
late musk
jade quartz
@strong sphinx save it for other jobs, turn it in for GC seals, desynth it
faint flare
Thats your job gauge
crimson wind
That's your job gauge
faint flare
You dont get rid of it
strong sphinx
what is desynth?
jade quartz
That’s your DRK gauge, do not get rid of it
faint flare
You can only simplify it
jade quartz
You can move it in HUD layout
faint flare
For now kt shows if your tank stance is on or not
late musk
its annoying
jade quartz
Yeah it is rip v_v
remote lintel
just move it
faint flare
It expands later to shows valuable resources
brazen hawk
Cant you hide it with the UI Settings?
jade quartz
Move it, shrink it, change it to simplified display
faint flare
No
late musk
@remote lintel how?
faint flare
Only simplify
jade quartz
Do not hide it under any circumstances.
jade quartz
To make it look neater.
faint flare
To fit easier with the rest of your ui
late musk
i have adhd and thats all i can see when i playing lol
faint flare
Then just move and shrink it, put it somewhere it is visible
jade quartz
It is necessary information.
faint flare
It becomes very important later
jade quartz
Try the simplified version.
crimson wind
One word: Fell Cleave
jade quartz
HUD layout -> click on it -> you’ll be able to access settings.
Shrink it, drag it somewhere else
Change to simplified mode
crimson wind
Obligatory WARs can't count joke
jade quartz
But do not remove it.
crimson wind
I mean removing tank job gauges doesn't change much imo
Because the buttons glow when you can use them
faint flare
You need to know when you have too much
jade quartz
That’s terrible
faint flare
And need to dump
crimson wind
I'm a DRK main and I don't look at it too extremely often
jade quartz
Yeah not extremely
crimson wind
I usually press them by instinct or just when they glow
jade quartz
But it is key information
faint flare
You generally should pool resources and dump during raid buffs as much as possible
Only dumping outside of.raid buffs to avoid overcapping
jade quartz
Stop yourself overcapping rather than burning immediately
crimson wind
I just pop Living Shadow every Battle Litany
faint flare
Well that naturally lines.up.with buffs
late musk
fixed it. way more managable. thanks guys
jade quartz
Did you try simplified?
faint flare
It expands later so will grow
late musk
@jade quartz yeah it just disappeared when i did that
late musk
how?
faint flare
Use defiance
jade quartz
Press defiance
faint flare
You should have that one 24/7
faint flax
Paladin vs warrior do more damage?
spare plinth
so when people have plenty of time in ffxiv, do they play on other classes
faint flare
They're very equal and comparable
jade quartz
@faint flax tanks are balanced
faint flare
Tank damage is.within a few percent
faint flax
Right on
jade quartz
At the highest levels of optimisation PLD has a fractionally higher dps output
crimson wind
DRK is like 100 damage behind WAR in some cases
faint flare
Due to requesticat
jade quartz
But that’s not what’s gonna make the difference between what a group wants to take in raid
faint flax
Wow this game is really balanced
crimson wind
The game is pretty balanced
forest lark
I thought maybe server, came back from work at 00 am and ita atill like this
late musk
still disappeared when in simple mode and defiance on
spare plinth
so anyone can easily play any classes?
little swift
EU seems to be having this issue currently
jade quartz
Yes you can play all jobs on one character
little swift
most of the jobs are easy to pick up but can be challenging to master
jade quartz
And plenty of people do
@late musk yeah I think since you haven’t unlocked the actual gauge part yet there’s no crucial information for it to give you
Therefore simplified mode shows nothing for now
But you’ll unlock the actual gauge part very soon
late musk
@jade quartz so its okay to leave it in simplified mode then? and how far over in my view do i need to have it?
faint flare
Somewhere its easily viewable
As it shows how.much gauge you.have to.use certain skills
jade quartz
!action inner beast
crimson wind
Somewhere easily viewable and where it doesn't disturb gameplay
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
jade quartz
At level 35 you’ll unlock the gauge
late musk
cool thanks
remote lintel
I put my gauges above and to the right of my hotbars
jade quartz
Same
late musk
if i want to do blacksmith and armor stuff i have to leave the mrd guild to do that/
@remote lintel can you show me your setup?
faint flare
You dont leave guilds
strong sphinx
is there a max of how many quests you can accept?
faint flare
You can freely swap between all unlocked jobs
jade quartz
You do not sacrifice anything to pick up another class
faint flare
By equipping their weapon or equipping their gear swt
jade quartz
Swapping jobs takes a single click of a button.
You are registered with all the NPC guilds simultaneously.
little swift
the cap for quests in your journal is listed in the quest journal
its 30 total iirc
little swift
does not include leve quests
late musk
@remote lintel that looks confusing lol
remote lintel
its just a hotbar and job gauge
frank anchor
what's the current drop rate for the lanner mounts? someone mentioned it was like 20% but not sure if that's accurate.
clever rune
Am i able to get some quick levels for a new class if i complete high level leves and turn them in after switching classes, or will it lock me out of turning them in?
jade quartz
We don’t have accurate information on drop rates
Just player estimates from their anecdotal experience
Lanners seem to be around 20–25%
frank anchor
done about 25 runs and haven't seen it yet, but the pony mounts all dropped on 2nd or 3rd attempt :P
remote lintel
called rng
faint flare
Rng is a fickle Mistress
jade quartz
That’s really unlucky
leaden ginkgo
rng
zinc orbitBOT
frank anchor
what are those in party finder, do they mean I haven't unlocked them yet, or is it something else?
leaden ginkgo
i did 40 runs for sophia lanner
its something you havent unlocked
hence locked duty
jade quartz
When something’s locked, it requires unlocking
frank anchor
ah thought it was private or something, thanks!
jade quartz
Nah, private parties have a separate tab at the top
leaden ginkgo
how do I know where and when to get better armor and weapons?
I tend to have a problem with knowing where to get better stuff
jade quartz
Er
Well the MSQ gives you stuff
and dungeons drop stuff
if you just pick stuff appropriate for your class, you should be fine for your first character
At level 50, 60 and 70 you can buy Allagan tomestone of Poetics gear which will have you set for a few levels after that.
remote lintel
msq basically gives you all you need until you hit a level cap
then use poetics
then repeat
pallid eagle
So much discourgement from playing dragoon since people disliking way i play clicking skills while dpsing on my stream
leaden ginkgo
I already beat msq
jade quartz
Basically if you're under 50, upgrade when your is 5-10 levels lower than your level
if you're over 50, reduce that to 5 levels under you.
remote lintel
then you can use deepshadow
then unlock eden
do Eden verse and rack up allegory tomestones
get some neo ishgardian if you want
remote lintel
just play what you want
pallid eagle
idk >.<
frigid sigil
does it matter who I recruit into my squadron
?
I'm right at the start and don't seem to have a lot of choices so I'm wondering if I should just take anyone until I have 8 before I get choosey
slate arrow
not really if you only want to get them to do missions
