slate arrow
#

the main reason you'd be choosy is if you're trying to get specific chemistries which grant bonuses

frigid sigil
#

I want to work up so I can run dungeons for leveling with them

slate arrow
#

ah then it doesn't really matter

frigid sigil
#

kk, thx

little swift
#

the other reason you want to be choosy is if you want certain members

#

like an all lala squad or whatever

#

but otherwise its pretty irrelevant

faint flare
#

You can change their classes with an item

#

So

frigid sigil
#

kk basically I can just be choosey later and replace people later but first it's probably better to get 8 so this whole thing starts going?

crimson edge
#

im having a little bit of a crisis choosing what class to really play

#

how did any of you guys choose your main class?

faint flare
#

Buy playing them all and picking what i felt comfortable with

blazing hinge
#

@crimson edge I was leveling a pally, and got to the level where I unlocked red mage, needed a dps so I thought what the hell, tried it and stuck with red mage since

crimson edge
#

ive been trying to do that and leveling up the class to at least 60 but i haven't found a class that caught my attention yet

remote lintel
#

I thought vinyl said buy them all

#

look up videos of the classes

#

pick up the ones that look cool

raven sage
#

Honestly sometimes you just won't know if you truly like a job until you're at level cap

lavish vortex
#

does rested EXP bonus applies on all quests and dungeons?

faint flare
#

Rested xp applies on kills

lavish vortex
#

thanks!

desert ravine
#

is it possible to wear neo ishgardian gear even when im only at Heavensward but already level 80?

jade quartz
#

Yes

faint flare
#

Only requirement is be 80

jade quartz
#

Though there's no reason to

#

If you can't access content that has a higher level requirement, then higher level gear is useless

desert ravine
#

it's okay. probably good for light farming hard dungeon

jade quartz
#

No

#

oh you mean you're unsyncing a relic?

#

Then I guess

#

that's really niche though

remote lintel
#

how do you get your character to stop doing things in gpose

#

I mean emotes

jade quartz
#

spacebar

remote lintel
#

that's face camera

#

the disable motion thing just freezes them in place

faint flare
#

Sitting down then jumping puts people in the idle state during Gpose

#

Or toggling the option that allows people in gpose to repeat their last action

remote lintel
#

where is that

jade quartz
#

Open the gpose menu with the autorun button (R by default)

faint flare
#

Under motion

#

"select action"

#

Toggle that

remote lintel
#

oh I see

#

got it

#

......toggling it off still repeats the action

raven sage
#

You don't want to turn it off

remote lintel
#

it was on by default

raven sage
#

Wait are you toggling the right thhing?

remote lintel
raven sage
#

The buttons at the very top

#

With the people

#

That's what you want

remote lintel
#

that just freezes the character in place

#

mid motion

raven sage
#

Then outside of gpose just sit and stand

remote lintel
#

that's what I did

raven sage
#

I'm not sure why it's doing actions then

#

That should stop it

pallid eagle
#

Grrr im torn between SAM and DRG >.<

#

I know SAM has freestyle dps which pretty cool and less punishing than DRG but ...

jade quartz
#

I wouldn't call SAM freestyle

remote lintel
#

sam isn't freestyle

#

it has a strict rotation

jade quartz
#

Nothing's really freestyle

pallid eagle
#

Really like DRG ?

remote lintel
#

I don't recall drg having a strict rotation

leaden pond
#

Hi guys, talking about SAM, anyone knows how to get Hoshikiri ? 🤷‍♂️

jade quartz
#

DRG has a strict rotation.

weak cradle
#

Quick question

jade quartz
#

But like

weak cradle
#

Can you marry someone from another server?

jade quartz
#

not significantly stricter than any other

faint flare
#

No jin

jade quartz
#

it's just that it has long combos.

weak cradle
#

Nooooo!!!! My free mount!!

leaden ginkgo
#

Hi guys, talking about SAM, anyone knows how to get Hoshikiri ? 🤷‍♂️
Hoshikiri is the samurai relic

weak cradle
#

Ahem, thanks.

leaden ginkgo
#

For level 80

pallid eagle
#

So SAM is more relaxing than DRG ?

jade quartz
#

Uh

remote lintel
#

no

leaden ginkgo
#

Uh

leaden pond
#

Oh erhh and i heard you get it from Eureka right ?

jade quartz
#

Neither of them are particularly relaxing

remote lintel
#

sam is one of the strictest rotations

jade quartz
#

or stressful

leaden ginkgo
#

Not for me anyway

remote lintel
#

imo

faint flare
#

80 relic isn't eureka

leaden ginkgo
#

^

#

Do the quest hail yo the queen in kugane

faint flare
#

Its from the quest line that starts in kugane afyer doing the lv70 24mans

leaden ginkgo
#

^

pallid eagle
#

Hmm

leaden ginkgo
#

Make sure to have done the ivalice raids

leaden pond
#

Awchhu right, i need to check on the lv70 24mans tysm guys

#

Oww uh, i need to see that on internet i dont remember exactly what are those ivalice raids

pallid eagle
#

idk

leaden pond
#

like i just finished Shadowbringers part 1

faint flare
#

The ilavice raids start in kugane

#

In the markets

#

They the rabanstre, ridorana and Orbonne monstery stuff

leaden pond
leaden ginkgo
#

Yes

#

Those 3

leaden pond
#

Oh okay yeah, they're all done

leaden ginkgo
#

You need to do them to do the level 80 quest

#

Go to kugane markets

faint flare
#

Then you'll have the relic quest in kugane

leaden ginkgo
#

Look for blue plus

faint flare
#

hail to the queen

leaden pond
#

Uhm roger that tysm guys teeehee 😭🙌

leaden ginkgo
#

Back to the samurai thing

#

Freestyle samurai is a joke

#

For people who play samurai and don't follow the rotation

#

Jts just a lot of people play like that

#

Hence freestyle samurai

wraith jay
#

learning AST, if I'm the only healer like in a party of four, should I use shield or regen stance? or alternate?

leaden ginkgo
#

Regen

faint flare
#

Diurnal is flat out better

leaden ginkgo
#

Is a lot easier to get used to

wraith jay
#

okay

#

so when should I use shield stance for AST?

faint flare
#

Nocturnal is only needed when shields are needed

#

Which is higher end content

wraith jay
#

oh alright thanks

faint flare
#

Or paired with another astro

pallid eagle
#

Still torn though lol

remote lintel
#

at the very beginning of a dungeon you can use noct and put a shield on the tank

#

then switch back to diurnal

wraith jay
#

ok

faint flare
#

Yeah, you can do that inbetween pulls before tank pulls

remote lintel
#

^

faint flare
#

But most the time you are in Diurnal

#

The regen gives all your skills more healing potency than nocturnal

pine hawk
#

Hi everyone 🙂. I would like to craft glamour prisms. I finished the submission impossible quest but the neither the vendor in mor d’hona or vesper bay has the recipe books. I can’t figure out what I missing. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

pallid eagle
#

then again SAM has no animation locking and rotation is super easy on SAM

strong sphinx
#

to access eureka you always have to go to Kugane and speak with Rodney or is there also an option in like in the duty finder?

pallid eagle
#

And SAM can ABC on the go

slate arrow
#

you have to speak with rodney yes

pale cairn
#

hello, I'm new to the game and would like to know what I'm supposed to spend my wolf marks on, thank you in advance

little swift
#

glamour

#

and cosmetics

slate arrow
#

you spend your wolf marks on glamour

#

while there's some gear you can buy, they only go up to heavensward, and PvE gear quickly outranks it

pale cairn
#

so.. just gear for appearence and cosmetics right?

lime sphinx
#

If i buy 2 more fresh accounts, and i use my refer code 2 times, i would have 10 feathers, right?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes

remote lintel
#

yes

lime sphinx
#

cause its almost same price as the moogle mount, but i prefer the red chocobo

remote lintel
#

if that's what you want to do

#

it just looks like a regular chocobo really

lime sphinx
#

2 palces

#

places

remote lintel
#

you could buy the wedding package if you found another person

lime sphinx
#

i'm already married with someone

remote lintel
#

unless you plan to party up with people extremely often then I don't see why

quiet magnet
#

Doing some FATES but i know i get gil on the right as a reward but whats the reward on the left? im looking it up and it says its GC coins? what is it used for and how can i see how much i have?

remote lintel
#

you mean seals?

vagrant copper
#

Could mean XP?...

quiet magnet
#

ya grand company seals it says here

remote lintel
#

you trade them in to your GC

#

and use them for promotions

#

it's under currency

quiet magnet
#

What if i dont have a company? do i just save em up

remote lintel
#

what lvl are you

leaden ginkgo
#

What level are you

quiet magnet
#

8

remote lintel
#

then save them I guess

shrewd spoke
#

Hi everyone, I just got an item from a quest that says "sell price : 10k (restricted)", but I can't seem to find on google where to sell it for this price. Merchants only buy it for 300 gils or so. Any idea?

obsidian patio
#

Shop selling price is what vendors sell the item for

leaden ginkgo
#

^

obsidian patio
#

“Sells for” is what you get for it

shrewd spoke
#

oh ok I get it, I thought there was a special someone wanting it for this price

#

i'm dumb

#

thanks :p

gentle marten
#

What's mch good at?

obsidian patio
#

It has the most damage of the physical ranged DPS

#

and it has pretty high burst with Reassemble+Drill

#

!action reassemble

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Reassemble** : lvl 10 MCH (55.0 second cooldown)

Guarantees that next weaponskill is a critical direct hit.
Duration: 5s
This action does not affect damage over time effects.

obsidian patio
#

!action drill

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Drill** : lvl 58 MCH (20.0 second cooldown)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 700. Shares a recast timer with Bioblaster.

gentle marten
#

nothing else? That's it's niche?

leaden ginkgo
#

Well

#

Its the strongest physical ranged

shrewd spoke
#

and less reliant on rng than dancer

leaden ginkgo
#

Very high burst and they hit ig numbers

#

Whilst allowing you to move

obsidian patio
#

Yeah they have 100% consistency in their rotation

warped nest
#

Zero RNG

obsidian patio
#

No RNG at all unlike Bard/Dancer

warped nest
#

Everything is under your control

gentle marten
#

That does sound way nicer

warped nest
#

Two side of the same coin

#

It being consistent might mean it is less exciting for players who are looking for more on the fly handling

jade quartz
#

Like

pallid eagle
#

Gues stickin to drg

jade quartz
#

the deciding factor with jobs is usually more their gameplay flow

warped nest
#

/\

jade quartz
#

As the differences in actual party functionality aren't huge

hallow hatch
#

What do I do if someone hacked my account?

regal musk
#

Final Steps of Faith was nice, but given it was a pug, there was no coordination between healers. From two AST picking the same stance, to wasting surecast on unneeded res. How do people normally coordinate heals in a full party?

vagrant copper
#

Seems like you have the big picture.

regal musk
#

well, I do see the need for coordination :D

remote lintel
#

look at which stance they picked?

regal musk
#

but how do people solve it, voice chat?

remote lintel
#

and pick the opposite?

warped nest
#

They coordinate by not being bad healers

regal musk
#

stance's easy, wasted surecast is worse :D

jade quartz
#

They need only pay attention.

#

You mean swiftcast

warped nest
#

There is also a chance that the AST couldn't swap

regal musk
#

I probably do, yeah. :D

warped nest
#

AST can't swap stance when they are in combat

jade quartz
#

You can have a macro to communicate who you're rezzing if need be

obsidian patio
#

@hallow hatch contact SE support through the mogstation if possible

jade quartz
#

but it's not gonna be a huge deal in duty finder content

regal musk
#

probably not; I'm asking what people normally do for full party - just voice, or is there something else that can be used here?

hallow hatch
#

@obsidian patio I dont have access to my account

jade quartz
#

Not in duty finder.

remote lintel
#

they pay attention

warped nest
#

Healer with regen drop the slow and potent healing and let everyone slowly gain back their HP

jade quartz
#

Static groups use voice comms.

warped nest
#

Healer with shield will put up shield when a big one is coming

obsidian patio
#

Try changing your password through the “forgot my password” option

jade quartz
#

But the problem in your case sounds like just players not paying attention

regal musk
#

well, given that I can't change stance, if tank rushes ahead I just won't have time to do it :D

jade quartz
#

It honestly

#

doesn't really matter

little swift
#

just pick a stance after combat starts then

regal musk
#

for res, well, swiftcast is instant, so you can burn it easily anyway :)

jade quartz
#

it's duty finder content

little swift
#

if it matter that much to you

jade quartz
#

Did you clear?

#

Then don't dwell on it

#

Keep an eye on stance before tank pulls

regal musk
#

I feel like we're focusing on the wrong bit here :DDD

jade quartz
#

if a mistake happens, oh well.

remote lintel
#

if you wasted a swiftcast because the other healer rezzed then you'll eventually get the swiftcast back

#

assuming no one immediately dies

regal musk
#

I was just curious whether there's some in-game way to coordinate this. Looks like there isn't, short of a macro. That's it, thank you :)

jade quartz
#

You just talk to people

#

or pay attention

warped nest
#

You want to know how people coordinate, our answer is "for most cases, it comes from paying attention and be competent. At higher level of play, they voice chat"

remote lintel
#

^

regal musk
#

FWIW, that pug also had tanks without tanking stance on :D

jade quartz
#

You can type in the chat window yaknow

regal musk
#

so it was a clown fiesta anyway :D

jade quartz
#

Also it comes off a bit rude to put these smileys at the end of every message

#

v_v

remote lintel
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

regal musk
#

that's a first.

remote lintel
#

you get some bad pugs

regal musk
#

yeah, not terribly worried for this one, no

dense pier
#

Which 3 crafting souls are your preference?

I was thinking going: BSM, WVR but unsure on last one between GSM, LTW, CRP

jade quartz
#

The only current specialist-only recipes are Ruby Barding and Furniture, the special-effect Shinryu glamour weapons, and one orchestrion roll.

#

In other words, apart from your already-chosen BSM, only Armourer, carpenter, goldsmith and alchemist currently have them.

#

The only other real purpose is to get the slight stat boost to the crafter that has the soul equipped.

#

You can change up to three specialists in a week, which is more often than you'll realistically need to.

#

In short

#

it doesn't really matter that much.

hallow hatch
#

@obsidian patio I think they changed my email address cause I'm not getting an email

dense pier
#

I guess im moreso interested in which do i want to give a stat-boost to

regal atlas
#

hello new here and need some help, about not being able to download the patch for shadowbringers and I just bought it too 😭

obsidian patio
#

Check if you need to update internet explorer

#

The launcher uses that to download patches

jade quartz
#

Some European-based players have been reporting troubles with the launcher today

obsidian patio
orchid condor
#

For DPS doing Trusts, what Setup of NPC's should i go?

obsidian patio
#

They’re all pretty equal, but if you want to use the LB don’t pick Alisaie.

#

Because she’ll use it pretty much the instant it’s available.

Do the ishgard restoration if you have access to that.

@obsidian patio talking to me?

Yes.

@obsidian patio im lvl 18 trying to get to 209 lol

#

Iron ingots would probably be your best bet. The vendor at the guild should have iron ore to buy

late musk
#

i can make them but for some reason he doesnt have any ores to sell

obsidian patio

Did you talk to both vendors? They’re a bit split on materials

late musk

@obsidian patio honestly i just now relised that there were 2 lol thanks he had em

This has a lot of general tips and info about the game

late lava
#

how do you know which world is preferred?

latent bloom
#

It will say when you create your character.

latent prism
#

When is the best time to sell food and potions?

latent bloom
#

If it is raid type stuffs, the beginning of the new patch when it it at it's highest.

#

Otherwise, just whenever. Raid food and potions are always needed. Crafter and gatherer too. All else are very limited in buying since it always gives the 30 minute EXP buff

crimson wind
#

so how hard is Memoria?

#

And how does PF skill vary

latent bloom
#

That is a question for endgame discussion.

#

But the short of it, hard to very hard depending on previous experience.

little swift
#

its actually not super challenging since all the mechanics are visible via the cast bar

#

and the enmity list

#

only fortius may serve a bit confusing

still elbow
proud willow
#

It's a song from 1.0 called Supply and Demand, it's on the Before Meteor OST

#

There doesn't appear to be an orchestrion roll for it

dense pier
#

Is the quest, "A Home in the Firmament" a prereq for anything or is it just a useless optional quest?

proud willow
#

At the end of that line of quests you get an achievement, I think that's all

#

it could conceivably become a prereq for later Ishgardian Restoration stuff

lethal bison
#

is there a carpenters power leveling guide that tells u everything to buy and what to craft for leves and such?

iron mesa
#

I'm pretty sure there's a few Teamcraft lists that might be helpfull for this. If there's a spreadsheet I am not sure, but their discord might have one

remote lintel
#

can you unsync battle on the bridge and have it count

Oh ok

restive maple
#

where do i go if I am lfg?

leaden ginkgo
#

@restive maple here, or in game? In game there's the Duty Finder and Party finders. Both can be found in the menue list (line of orange buttons, on the lower right if the screen unless you move it)

#

I'd give a picture, but not sure how I'd find one easily and not online atm xp

If your not max level yet though, you probably don't need the party finder

As basically all leveling content can be done through the duty finder

what would be a basic rotation for a thm at level 30?

oak ice
#

!faq blmleveling

zinc orbitBOT
#
THM/BLM leveling rotations
leaden ginkgo
#

ty

warped nest
#

At lvl 30, you should focus on upgrading THM into a BLM

tacit ruin
#

I actually came by to ask, what would be the best way to keep a tanks gear up to date? I'm levelling DRK, except im having gear troubles. I'm level 42 and much of my gear is falling behind. Mostly accessories. I can't make my own gear and am not in a FC to ask. I have trouble keeping my health up in Stone Vigil, even.
Is my best option to buy? Because gear is awfully pricey.

warped nest
#

You can get gear from lower level dungeons

#

Or your GC

#

At 50, you can just hop onto Ironworks

leaden ginkgo
#

You shouldn't really have an issue, tho, not as long as you continually use the gear from MSQ

tacit ruin
#

definitely didnt forget GCs existed

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh wait

oak ice
#

Don't worry about accessories until 50, they're not more than at most 6 stat points at that level

leaden ginkgo
#

Unless you mean as an alternative job

warped nest
#

Your accessories don't contribute much to your bulk pre lvl 50

tacit ruin
#

Im at stormblood but wanted to catch up DRK

#

I usually play AST

dense pier
#

I've been wondering, as a high-level if I see a low-level fighting out in the wild is it safe to help them kill their target by 1-shotting it or am i stealing/preventing credit or something?

warped nest
#

GC gear

oak ice
#

So just spend poetics on augmented ironworks

warped nest
#

As long as you hit it after the low level player does

#

You should be fine

tacit ruin
#

The only thing is that they dont get EXP I think

warped nest
#

They do

tacit ruin
#

Is that only in party then?

warped nest
#

That's exactly how people cheese BLU leveling

wind kindle
#

Hello, what is the fastest way to get more Scrips for the Crafter and Gatherer stuff from Idyllshire? Or should i just save the scrips I gather for lvl 70~80?

leaden ginkgo
#

Assuming I understand right, yes it's only in party that the exp gain would be less due to a level difference @tacit ruin - it's for this reason that when power leveling a blue mage the blue mage can't be in the party of the people killing things

valid idol
#

have they announced when the next live letter is going to be?

warped nest
#

Soon

pearl wharf
#

what do each of the icons mean?

#

i can understand the one with the star

#

but what about the "i" or the yellow ones

#

or yellow ones with an i

leaden ginkgo
#

is POTD still a fast way to level?

#

gotcha but i'd miss out on all the main quests right?

#

gotcha ty

little swift
#

its good for the 1-61 range

#

but mind-numbing since you have to commit to repeated rounds

#

you're better off doing levequests for leveling crafters/gatherers if you can

#

up to 60 is okay now

#

here's a decent numbers chart on how much exp you get

#

at lv59 its still like 20% exp

#

of your entire exp bar

#

you need about 3.8mil exp to get from 59-60

#

and each run is about 800k

dense pier
#

I'm level 55. Is there a CP amount I want to be aiming for before I start socketing for control/craftsmanship?

#

Please don't respond with "It's not worth it."

little swift
#

you can check the pins in #doh-dol-lounge for crafting rotations at your level and see what minimum stats you need

#

post mortem and teh crafting people did a great job on those

dense pier
#

Oh shit

#

Thanks

wind kindle
#

Hello, how can I advance in the Grand Company rank? The administrator said that they don't have any more promotion for me?

#

And I'm only Second Storm Lieutenant.

gentle oyster
#

Gotta do the squadrons

wind kindle
#

I see. Thanks.

gentle oyster
#

They can be a pain but if you tough through it you can get up to the Captain rank

wind kindle
#

Haven't done a single one of those so I really don't know if it is any worth the time or effort.

little swift
#

once you get rank 2 squadrons you can run dungeons with them

#

its like a shitty version of trusts

#

it works

gentle oyster
#

That was a nightmare for me in all honesty

gentle oyster
#

I took the slow route of just sending them on missions which is the equivalent of retainer ventures

wind kindle
#

I see. I guess I'll give it a go or two, eh? Maybe in a tad bit, I shall?

mossy tartan
#

Does doing the Ishgardian restoration crafting missions level my crafter job fast?

wind kindle
#

also when should i watch the Stormblood trailer so I won't get spoiled? AFter or before the Dragonsong?

mossy tartan
#

Need to meld lots of materia for my gear, still weaver level 30

#

also when should i watch the Stormblood trailer so I won't get spoiled? AFter or before the Dragonsong?
@wind kindle I’ll watch it for you now and determine if it has spoilers, a moment

gentle oyster
#

Id say go after watch it after you clear the dungeon Baelsars Wall

wind kindle
#

@mossy tartan , wow thanks. really appreciate it.

#

I haven't been there yet...

#

cause im really cautious.i value the story really well

gentle oyster
#

It's the last main story dungeon of heavensward

mossy tartan
#

Okay, finished it - the trailer itself covers a brief outline of stormblood, that’s all I could discern

little swift
#

the sb trailer doesn't really have spoilers

#

except for maybe 1 thing

mossy tartan
#

^^

wind kindle
#

uynderstood

little swift
#

if you consider that a spoiler

wind kindle
#

ill jsut stay on the safe side

#

finish that dungeon first, eh?

gentle oyster
#

That would be best since that was around the time we got the trailer

mossy tartan
#

don’t know if it works for you, but I always prefer to watch an expansion’s trailer only after I finished its story, somehow I like it this way

vale kiln
#

Does the main scenario skips get cheaper if you have the previous one? Like if I buy the AAR one and want the heavenward one a week later

gentle oyster
#

Nope

mossy tartan
#

nope

wind kindle
#

UNderstood. Thank you for all you're outputs.

gentle oyster
#

Cause the heavensward one comes with arr skip built into it...

vale kiln
#

im enjoying a lot of the games content that isn't story but just wasn't sure if heavensward would be more enjoyable

mossy tartan
#

Heavensward story is majestic and tragic, to say the least

#

It’s bitter sweet and I assure you, you will like it

gentle oyster
#

Heavensward and the lead up into it is really when the stiry starts picking up

vale kiln
#

But is that only because of the previous ARR story or standalone?

gentle oyster
#

Each expansion builds on the previous story

#

The only story in this game that's "standalone" is the 1.0 story and even ARR builds off that to a certain extent

leaden ginkgo
#

Well, technically not standalone but the events of 1.0 are more lore than they are part of the current story

dense pier
#

So I noticed in the #doh-dol-lounge , there weren't sockets(melds) for +control

#

is it because +craftsmanship helps with scrips or something?

little swift
dense pier
#

okay

little swift
#

it factors in the fact that you'll be on a budget

#

if you're struggling you can play around with it yourself

dense pier
#

I'll try out one of the rotations on there. Idk if it'll get me HQ with no HQ mats but NQ is better than some of the jewelry I got now

#

Oh

#

I got quite a bit of money imo, i've been selling quite well on the marketplace

#

but I'm hesitant to buy stuff because I like to make it myself, and I don't like giving other people my money

little swift
#

figure out what you need and you can pump a bit of materia into that

dense pier
#

Ye

little swift
#

but leveling you outpace that gear so quick i don't really think its worth the effort of applying the melds

dense pier
#

There is literally

#

zero effort

#

Open menu, meld

#

No effort

#

and I'm tired of carrying around a level 43 secondary for some of my crafters

stable hinge
#

How do I get Fray's armour set?

#

Idk its just a light

wind kindle
#

Hello, I need some output. How significant is DNC's DPS Output late-game? or how significant is a DNC in general?

#

so their DPS output late-game is not really that significant?

#

I see. I just want to keep on maining a class that will actually contribute overall significantly

warped nest
#

Meta Jobs FAQ
Info

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

Click here for the best jobs in the game though

warped nest
#

Whether a job is contributing relies more on you playing well

#

This is how close the jobs are in terms of balance

#

That's why we always recommend play what you feel is cool

wind kindle
#

I see. I mean I can easily do rotations, like in SAM, I've been playing it awhile and I'm confident enough that I could actually say that I'm decent with the rotation and with RDM, too.

warped nest
#

Or what you enjoy

wind kindle
#

I'm just asking 'cause I got flamed earlier in a dungeon. Apparently I was not "delivering maximum potential" output of the class.

whole wasp
#

on SAM?

wind kindle
#

DNC's rotation is actually fairly easy. I was flamed when I was on GNB. He/she said that I wasn't doing the maximum damage that a GNB can do.

whole wasp
#

anyway, Cast Light is for people who dont have sound on. This is before the !!! exists so its hard to tell if you hit a fish

mossy tartan
#

What are the 2 possible attacks from the mirrors that ||eden shiva|| can do? I only would like to know the safe spots. For all I know she has a safe zone in her hit box for the first attack (scythe kick) while the other attack would be to move to the edges. What happens when the mirrors use either?

wind kindle
#

Anyways, thank you all.

mossy tartan
#

I meant the 4 mirrors part

#

Does she have a long wind up time on either skills? Don’t think I can discern fast enough which one is which and then move away

#

So should I stay in the zone between her and the edges to give myself an upper edge?

#

To react fast enough, I mean

#

Okay, great

#

thank you!

#

noted

warped nest
#

A small handful of AOE are channel attack

#

That deals damage over time

#

But what was said is true, the VFX are no good indication of whether you get hit or not

warped nest
#

Once the cast finish, it is already determined, if you know for sure you are safe, you can even walk back in

#

Btw, the player's hitbox is a very small dot

mossy tartan
#

oooo

#

glad to know I have my kindred here

#

Once the cast finish, it is already determined, if you know for sure you are safe, you can even walk back in
@warped nest interesting, thank you! Just learned this one

warped nest
#

This is for 1 hit AOE

#

For channel AOE it is a different thing

#

Just want to be clear on this topic

mossy tartan
#

Looking back to to malikah’s well’s last boss, it kind of seemed intuitive about knowing that when the AoE marker is gone, it damages whoever was outside it, before the animation actually happens, I’m surprised it passed by me : (

#

Yep

#

Like the adds in the steppe dungeon? (2nd boss)

#

And innocence?

#

oh wait, I think innocence’s one is different, my bad

#

my first alliance raid will be within a couple of hours, I’m nervous : D

warped nest
#

Basically continuous donuts aoe

#

Sometimes comes in the variation of a slice of a full circle

left moth
#

Wiping city spooder is the same basic idea (staggered donut aoe going outwards from a point), inno just adds safe zones

#

Copied factory 2nd boss is also donuts but from outside to middle

#

Segmented in all variations used

#

Tank fight after 2nd shows on ground almost at same time but is time delayed

mossy tartan
#

wish you were on my DC i'd invite you to play but alas
@unique oasis ahh you’re too kind : )

#

The alliance raid is called “the royal city of rabanastre” any advice for a healer before going in?

proud willow
#

there are some mechanics you can mess up but it'll be fine regardless

#

in general, remember that the alliance sometimes has to split 3 ways to each handle a mechanic as their own group. by convention, A should go on the left side of the arena and C should go on the right, while B goes in the middle

mossy tartan
#

Got it, thank you!

warped nest
#

When in doubt just follow your tank

ebon spear
#

does anyone know if there's any kinda of website out there to check item prices on the market boards faster?

oak ice
#

There's mogboard but I don't know if it's functional

primal relic
#

Well I just unlock duties?dungeon? Recently and it’s taking long to start up. I’m assuming like overwatch everyone wants to play dps?

ebon spear
#

^yes lol

oak ice
#

If you're a DPS, queues will be long, yes

primal relic
#

I should work on my tank/support then to get queue faster thnxs

#

Jebus the moment I switch to support I got in right away....

ebon spear
#

also i just checked out mogboard and they havent been updated since July 2019 MiqoteDepressed

little swift
#

mogboard is no longer functional

#

universalis is teh next best thing we got

#

but its player updated so not always the most accurate

oak ice
#

Yeah, I heard something about an API change, but couldn't remember

ebon spear
#

ooo i'll have a look, thank you 😄

#

ah yeah... its... also not really updated hahahahah

#

dang it

alpine fossil
#

is there a way to turn off reccuring payment

stable hinge
#

How do I change my settings so it stops locking onto allies

dim veldt
#

Does anyone know if you have two of same tank classes in one group, does it matter

wary forge
#

Was it necessary to log-in on the PS4 version during the sale the other day to actually get the Starter Edition added to your account or did you just have to add the right thing to your PSN account?

oak ice
#

Makes no difference at all @dim veldt

quasi hollow
#

Hey I have a kind of odd question, in-game right now my game seems to be locked to chatting, IE whenever I press any key/number it starts typing in game instead of using the hotkey, regardless of if I hit enter/escape to close the chat text thing, this has never happened before, relogging didn't fix it so I think I must have accidently hit a setting somewhere

wary forge
#

Do you have a controller connected? @quasi hollow

quasi hollow
#

Not at the moment

wary forge
#

Well, there goes my assumption for what caused it.

quasi hollow
#

yeah its super super weird, like I was alt-tabbed for a little while and came back and even closing/reopening the game

wary forge
#

(On PS4 it does that by default so I thought it was just a side effect of it being auto-swapped to controller mode)

quasi hollow
#

So I did some fast googling and it seems i might have turned on something called "Direct Chat" I just need to find where in the options it is now lol

#

Found it and thats what happened yeah

primal relic
#

Is there chance enhancing in this mmo?

oak ice
#

What would chance enhancing be? Tldr

primal relic
#

Like in other mmo mostly KR you would get mats and smash it on your gear to upg to +1

primal relic
#

As you progress the chance decreases

oak ice
#

Some particular relics have that, and overmelding works kinda like that, but in general no

primal relic
#

Like +1 might be 100% but +8 like 15%

#

And if you fail it blows up your item

wary forge
#

Oh, closest to that would be overmelding.

jade quartz
#

Oh no

#

Nothing that destroys your item

oak ice
#

Only the materia is lost

jade quartz
#

And just in general none of those toxic kmmo mechanics

wary forge
#

If you fail you just lose the materia you were trying to put in.

primal relic
#

Then your spend irl to buy gem that disable blowing up if fail

jade quartz
#

No way

oak ice
#

None of that

jade quartz
#

No pay to win here

wary forge
#

No casher auto succeed.

#

Only casher auto-suck.

primal relic
#

Oh good I have terrible rng and don’t wanna prem cash shop good to keep my equip safe and on par w/ meta

wary forge
#

(Class level skips should require you reach the appropriate level with that class on at least one character.)

jade quartz
#

Not in a million years will you see that bs

oak ice
#

The cash shop is only fashion, mounts, minions and other aesthetica

primal relic
#

That’s even better.

warped roost
#

Is it possible to lose reputation with the beast tribes?

jade quartz
#

No

oak ice
#

It is not

primal relic
#

Thnx guys

wary forge
#

Don't forget the auto-suck books Platt.

jade quartz
#

The cash shop also has hardly anything on it

#

@wary forge someone buying a job skip has little bearing on how competent a player they are. Please don’t spread that stuff, especially in this channel

wary forge
#

(I ran into a PLD who didn't even know how to turn on tank stance in Baelsar's Wall the other day)

pallid eagle
#

Now just unlocked Life of the Dragon and Nastford (w/e it called)

jade quartz
#

Players who want to learn will learn just fine without the leveling process, which doesn’t necessarily teach you how to be good anyway. Conversely, someone who doesn’t care about improving themselves probably won’t be aided by the leveling process.

warped nest
#

People who refuse to improve will find just pressing two buttons tedious

#

People who want to learn will watch 3 video guides just to make sure they don't miss a thing

rare karma
#

Do you get anything worthwhile from the coils of Bahamut?

little swift
#

lore

#

decent glam

warped nest
#

You get some cool weapons

little swift
#

poetics

jade quartz
#

Like item rewards? No, but the story is major

warped nest
#

And materials to make cool gears

primal relic
#

Btw how does tanking work on duty finder? I just did a run and our tank kept leaving.

wary forge
#

Ability to unlock the super-hard version from Stormblood.

warped nest
#

If you like dragon themed armors, you can get stuff from coil to make them

rare karma
#

For what classes are the weapons?

mossy tartan
#

Where can I get skybuilders’ hemp? I’m a level 17 botanist at the moment

jade quartz
#

@primal relic tanks queue up like anyone else... not sure what you mean?

warped nest
#

For what classes are the weapons?
@rare karma all except Dancer and Gunbreaker

primal relic
#

No, like in duty play? If that makes sense

rare karma
#

Oof ok

jade quartz
#

????

warped nest
#

Duty finder just put you into dungeon

jade quartz
#

There’s uh

#

Not something different and special about tanks

wary forge
#

@mossy tartan Use the duty action on some plant monsters and you'll get some at some point.

oak ice
#

Same as everywhere else, gather mobs, make sure people can hit whatever positionals they need to hit

primal relic
#

Do you automatically get aggro? Or do you toggle a skill? Cuz our tank would leave to fight other mobs.

mossy tartan
#

No, like in duty play? If that makes sense
@primal relic sometimes players leave when they dislike a certain dungeon, that could be the reason why they leave

warped nest
#

For tanking with random party members, you just grab what you and your healer can handle

oak ice
#

!item skybuilder's hemp

zinc orbitBOT
#
Error!

Item not found, Kupo!

warped nest
#

And make sure your DPS uses AOE if they have them

mossy tartan
#

@mossy tartan Use the duty action on some plant monsters and you'll get some at some point.
@wary forge plant monsters?

primal relic
#

And the mob wouldn’t follow him and attack me.

oak ice
#

Enter the diadem for he skybuilder's materials

warped nest
#

Did you attack first?

#

Or did the tank missed them?

oak ice
#

Then he wasn't using tank stance and lost aggro

primal relic
#

No, I waited till he ran in

#

Since I’m healer

jade quartz
#

Or was not AoEing possibly

warped nest
#

Did you regen the tank before they pull?

primal relic
#

Since a dead support is no support.

oak ice
#

Or that. Most likely he messed up either way

warped nest
#

If the mob chases you, run to your tank

primal relic
#

Everyone was topped off

wary forge
#

Tank definitely wasn't in stance.

jade quartz
#

Sounds like the tank wasn’t using their tank stance yeah.

primal relic
#

He just left during pirate cabin and fought a separate mob bunch on his own

jade quartz
#

Were they new?

primal relic
#

Our pugilist than started being tank

#

Idk

wary forge
#

Were they level synced?

oak ice
primal relic
#

Yes

warped nest
#

What's the dungeon?

oak ice
#

Did he have one of those

primal relic
#

I was busy healing our tanking pugilist to notice

wary forge
#

Pirate cabin makes me assume sastasha.

jade quartz
#

Sounds like Sastasha.

primal relic
#

Since they started arguing

wary forge
#

Probably a casher that bought the level skip but not the story skip.

primal relic
#

About him not tanking properly

#

Well he ended up dying and the party was telling me not to res.

jade quartz
#

You were just grouped with a dummy.

primal relic
#

Well I gave him benefit of doubt, and raised. But made me curious is tanking play difficult in duty?

wary forge
#

Which class were they?

primal relic
#

Some axe class

oak ice
#

!action defiance

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Defiance** : lvl 10 MRD WAR (10.0 second cooldown)

Significantly increases enmity generation.
Effect ends upon reuse.

oak ice
#

Definitely wasn't using that

primal relic
#

He would run in atk mobs kill some leave the rest to us and attack another bunch on his own.

#

He was using that sometimes

oak ice
#

He turned it on and off a lot?

primal relic
#

Like the mob wouldn’t follow him and after he left they would aggro me

jade quartz
#

Tanking is easy. Your tank was just either brand new and clueless, or just an idiot and clueless.

oak ice
#

Some people seem to treat it as a cooldown

jade quartz
#

Tanking is arguably the easiest job.

wary forge
#

If he was in tank stance and properly pulling the groups with him that's normal. In my experience it's the healer's comfort that matters on whether or not you do big pulls.

oak ice
#

You had bad luck with a tank, it will happen more and it sucks

primal relic
#

I have tried dps/healer so it got me nervous for tank believing it might be really hard lol

oak ice
#

It's really a non-argument to decide what's easier, different people click with different things

primal relic
#

I have done multiple pull. This one tank was doing amazing

wary forge
#

Healer is definitely best on a controller due to the ease of targeting allies with a controller.

jade quartz
#

That is entirely subjective Onyx.

primal relic
#

I just click on names from party list.

#

Since I tend to check hp/status and switch between my tank target and his hp

wary forge
#

Up/down on d-pad to cycle allies.

warped nest
#

I can play it all on a controller

#

None of the jobs are handicapped by controller or keyboard/mouse

whole lagoon
#

guys i just got my game complete edition but it's from uk so do i have to make an uk square enix ac im from asia

jade quartz
#

Not UK

warped nest
#

You need to make a EU mogstation account

jade quartz
#

Just “Europe and Other Regions”

wary forge
#

UK, EU, same thing really.

jade quartz
#

That’s exactly what it is

whole lagoon
#

ok thx

#

man I'm pumped

jade quartz
#

However I know that some areas in SEA get retailed NA copies of the game

warped nest
#

I assume so

jade quartz
#

It is, now and forever@unique oasis

warped nest
#

However I know that some areas in SEA get retailed NA copies of the game
@jade quartz video games is messy here in regards to game region

#

I think we can get NA, but sometimes Asia-English

jade quartz
#

The patch is adapted for the Korean and Chinese versions after it is released elsewhere

whole wasp
#

there used to be a SEA version but it was discontinued and absorbed by the NA version

rare karma
#

Do the turns on binding coil of bahamut each give different rewards? Or do they all give the same?

jade quartz
#

Management is outsourced to Korean- and Chinese-based teams

warped nest
#

Yes and no at the same time

#

There are 3 tier of coil

#

1-5, 6-9, 10-13

rare karma
#

Oh ok how do I unlock 6-9 and 10-13

wary forge
#

Each tier has the same iLVL, each section has different slots.

warped nest
#

You can't choose Korean server

jade quartz
#

That’s what most serious Korean players do as I understand.

wary forge
#

Finish the first "Wing" and you can unlock the second one.

warped nest
#

I think you just need to clear 5 to get 6-9

#

Then 9 for 10-13

rare karma
#

Ok makes sense

whole lagoon
#

guys i have two keys one is game key and one is like square enix memebers product registration key

warped nest
#

Make sure you go back to Mor Dhona to do the quest line and it should unlock 6-9 and 10-13 for you

#

Square Enix store is not mogstation

rare karma
#

Different topic how do I see the percentage of health for a boss or enemy is it a setting or is it only for certain enemies

#

Where is it if you don’t mind explaining? I couldn’t find it earlier so I thought it was the latter

warped nest
#

Google this?

twilit arch
#

Character Configuration -> UI Settings -> HUD -> Display target's remaining HP percentage.

warped nest
#

I feel that this is a Google away

smoky glade
#

are aetherpool grips from potd only awarded for completing floor 50? so if i start at 51 i won't get more?

warped nest
#

No

rare karma
#

Found it thanks

warped nest
#

Grips are from you converting your aetherpool strength

jade quartz
#

Grips

warped nest
#

You can always get more aetherpool from potd

smoky glade
#

i remember getting one for completing floor 50 months ago but i threw it away lol

jade quartz
#

Tokens which are then exchanged for weapons

smoky glade
#

padjali

jade quartz
#

???

warped nest
#

Grips comes from you spending your aetherpool. Aetherpool can be recollected by doing more potd.

smoky glade
#

ohh

#

i have 26/34

#

can i get 3 from that?

warped nest
#

Take note that aetherpool is capped at 99, but you cannot farm low number floors to hit the maximum 99

jade quartz
#

The old mechanism was changed to introduce the grips

warped nest
#

can i get 3 from that?
@smoky glade I don't remember

#

The conversion rate

jade quartz
#

Now instead of having to lose a whole 30 or 60 aetherpool stat at once and weaken your strength inside PotD

#

You can just spend 10 at a time

#

And save up the grip tokens in your inventory

warped nest
#

OK, so 10/10 per grip

midnight slate
#

Are patch changes massive or minor changes?

warped nest
#

Depending on their decimals

jade quartz
#

Err

#

Depends on the patch

#

And what kind of changes you’re talking about

#

What they call “hotfixes” are actually server downtime

#

True hotfixes in this game are rare

smoky glade
#

oh okay thanks @warped nest

warped nest
#

Point one, point two etc are the really big one

midnight slate
#

Im wondering if the patch will improve some jobs or detriment them

#

5.3

warped nest
#

Point one five, or point whatever five are usually a medium size stuff

jade quartz
#

It will balance jobs

midnight slate
#

Or if it’s minuscule bug fixes

jade quartz
#

Usually they prefer to buff weaker jobs

#

Stronger jobs are only nerfed if it’s extreme

midnight slate
#

When does 5.3 come out anyway

warped nest
#

Dunno

#

Covid

jade quartz
#

5.3 will include significant new content

midnight slate
#

If it was delayed by a month then
July?

jade quartz
#

It is not minor bugfixes.

warped nest
#

It won't be a new job

midnight slate
#

Maybe he’s tired

warped nest
#

What I meant was, no matter the changes, it won't be like getting a new job

#

The biggest change we had so far within expansion, is Ninja

jade quartz
#

No need to get snippy

wary forge
#

Class changes are generally in X.0s

midnight slate
#

Haven’t we gotten a job in patches before?

warped nest
#

Only Ninja and Blue Mage

wary forge
#

Sometimes in X.55s (AKA pre-expansion patch)

midnight slate
#

Isn’t Ninja just a lvl 30 upgrade

warped nest
#

It is Rogue + Ninja

midnight slate
#

Oh I thought it was added with 2.0

warped nest
#

Nope

twilit arch
#

2.4

leaden ginkgo
#

2.4?

midnight slate
#

I see

leaden ginkgo
#

Ye

twilit arch
#

but it was intended to be release in 2.0

warped nest
#

This is also why you can't start a new character as Rogue

wary forge
#

At this point that's more because they're too lazy to fix the character creation options than because it wasn't in 2.0.

warped nest
#

Job adjustments within expansion are only done to keep it inline. Summoner almost always get changes to 2-3 ability to tune the playstyle

#

But nothing significant to convert your current job into something you don't recognize

midnight slate
#

When you say changes
Like nerfs and buffs
Do they ever straight up remove skills

warped nest
#

They adjusted skill's function and behavior

leaden ginkgo
#

Shadowflare

twilit arch
#

generally the only time they remove skills is during expansion release

#

not in patches after it

wary forge
#

Full reworks are always in .55 or .0 patches.

midnight slate
#

I still don’t know what Heavy thrust was

warped nest
#

I don't think I have seen full reworks in. 55

leaden ginkgo
#

Wasn't heavy thrust just

#

Dismemberment

warped nest
#

!action Heavy Thrust

zinc orbitBOT
#
Error!

Action not found, Kupo!

midnight slate
#

Also wtf was Blood4Blood

wary forge
#

Pretty sure it was 3.55 that released the change from cross-class to role actions.

leaden ginkgo

no role actions were 4.0

Blood 4 Blood is increases the damage you deal and the damage you take

Ew glad that’s gone

It is just increased damage now

**Disembowel** : lvl 18 LNC DRG (2.5 second cooldown)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 150 .
Combo Action: True Thrust
Combo Potency: 320 Combo Bonus: Increases damage dealt by 10%
Duration: 30s

#

That's heavy thrust

wary forge
#

Huh, thought it was the pre-patch. Oh well.

mossy tartan
#

Where can I find level 20 mature trees?

wary forge
#

Check your gathering log. It'll tell you @mossy tartan

midnight slate
#

So heavy thrust was just disembowel but minus the damage buff and I had to use postsitonals
Man I picked the best time to play Dragoon

warped nest
#

It was clunky

#

Because Heavy Thrust is not part of any combo

midnight slate
#

Dragoon now feels so good

leaden ginkgo
#

Heavy thrust gave a damage buff It jusr

#

Was a standalone move you had tondk

warped nest
#

It is clear that after a few expansion, smaller buff that should be up at all time should be included in your natural combo,

#

Furthermore, in between expansion, the devs tries to reduce button bloat with jobs

mossy tartan
#

Should I use medica II —> assize —-> afflatus rapture to top a raid off after a big AoE? Or should I use medica instead of rapture to save lilies for later?

twilit arch
#

it depends, do you need everyone immediately topped off?

warped nest
#

Medica II is "I need to heal a lot but I don't mind letting it happen slowly over time"

twilit arch
#

if not, then just use med2 and let the regen work

#

if you do, afflatus rapture+assize is generally enough

mossy tartan
#

okay

warped nest
#

Medica, Rapture, or Cure III is "I need to heal a whole lot and I need to do them right now"

mossy tartan
#

I’m still having a hard time in timing my plenary indulgence, is it best used for continuous AoE blasts as well?

warped nest
#

Just think of it as a buff to your Medica

midnight slate
#

Yeah so SE said release is Mid June
But it could be an extra 2 weeks they don’t know

mossy tartan
#

Medica, Rapture, or Cure III is "I need to heal a whole lot and I need to do them right now"
@warped nest I don’t get to use Cure III a lot except on mark-up mechanics, the raid is too far most of the time

twilit arch
#

SE said the original release was mid june

#

this no longer the case

warped nest
#

I am just including it to be inclusive :D

#

What the... My discord just move me back 15 minutes

twilit arch
#

plenary is used as a buff to your aoeing. so if you need everyone topped off immediately

warped nest
#

!action Plenary Indulgence

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Plenary Indulgence** : lvl 70 WHM (60.0 second cooldown)

Grants Confession to self and nearby party members.
Upon receiving HP recovery via Medica, Medica II, Cure III, or Afflatus Rapture cast by self, Confession triggers an additional healing effect.
Cure Potency: 200
Duration: 10s

twilit arch
#

its good to use in conjunction with your aoe heals

#

a good place to use plenary is ultima in orbonne, her phase change

mossy tartan
#

It helped me a lot vs Innocence’s continuous AoE blasts pre-transformation phase, I loved the spell

twilit arch
#

that phase change is also a good place for cure 3

warped nest
#

What Kawa said is correct

#

Another good place for cure III is any stack marker

dry ocean
#

Do retainers have expiration?

warped nest
#

Or Akh Morn attacks

#

No, crow

#

They do have a time limit on the marketboard

mossy tartan
#

I see, thank you both for the invaluable tips!

keen storm
#

Good Morning - any news on the Launcher Problem thing ?

dry ocean
#

How much is a Retainer?

warped nest
#

Your first two are free

silver ruin
#

2/ month per

solid fog
#

Is the Firmament aetherite ticket permanent or do i have to keep buying it ?

silver ruin
#

after the first 2

vocal shell
#

Uh I'm trying to upgrade my free trial account to the complete version i have the code but it only shows an error when i try to click continue

twilit arch
#

They're one time use items @solid fog

pallid eagle
#

Hmm why is my inner self screaming to main sam to 80

twilit arch
#

so if you want to repeatedly teleport to the firmament with them, you're going to need a stack

pallid eagle
#

solid fog
#

@twilit arch OH i see. not worth it then

twilit arch
#

yeah

warped nest
#

If you have nothing better to spend on...

solid fog
#

There's always materia to spend

twilit arch
#

materia and dyes

#

are infinitely more useful than the firmament tickets

solid fog
#

Or buy the glam and sell them yikes

wary forge
#

There's always something better than the overpriced, consumable tickets.

warped nest
#

It is just a matter of cutoff point, but I digress

wary forge
#

(The things are priced at a point that makes you think they're re-usable but aren't. Especially the grand company ones that require the maximum rank to buy AND are like half of your cap at the second highest level to buy.)

#

It's only accessible from the aetheryte itself and it's separate from the aethernet submenu.

midnight slate
#

When is the next liveletter

twilit arch
#

you have to go to the main aetheryte

#

we don't know

I still can’t find skybuilders’ hemp even though my weaver is 28 and botanist is 20

twilit arch
#

the stage 1 stuff is no longer in game

#

also no point in crafting the stage 1 tuff either

#

go gather in diadem

mossy tartan
#

Ok, the 2nd stage says I need to get an approved grade 2 skybuilders’ hemp

#

In order to craft the grade 2 rope

#

^ that’s the 2nd restoration phase

twilit arch
#

yes, which you gather grade 2 stuff in diadem, then talk to the npc near the one who lets you enter diadem

#

he will approve items in a stack of 10

mossy tartan
#

Where can find the place?

twilit arch
#

diadem entry is in the firmament

#

the npcs are to the left of the board

warped nest

Use your pet attacks too

@warped nest thx

You have access to who glamours once you hit lv50 on summoner

#

Lets you glamour over the egis into carbuncles if you wish

next jay
#

hmm so I'm creating my character using eu because it is cheaper. if i register mogstation in SEA region would i be banned?

#

don't wanna fake my address but .....

slate arrow
#

it's EU and other regions so you're fine

#

as long as you're not in Korea or China you should be fine

next jay
#

ah yea not there

slate arrow
#

yeah you should be good for global servers then

next jay
#

don't think i can make an account in korea because they need the id number

#

hahaha

#

yea played quite abit in free trial

#

for 1/2 year

#

almost

#

most my char is lv 30 with exception of tank and crafting

#

cause......

#

crafting is soooo boriung

mossy tartan
#

I have 2 “grade 2 skybuilders’ rope” in my bag, but I can’t turn them in to the collectible appraiser?

is the problem with logging in from europe still not fixed?

slate arrow
#

If there's no update, probably not yet still

pearl wharf
#

when turning in certain collectibles. can i only turn them in to certain locations

#

or do they have some sort of weekly reset thing

#

where i can turn them in one week but not the other?

slate arrow
#

/timers

#

has a full list of everything that resets

#

Rowena and GCs reset midday instead of at daily reset

twilit arch
#

the only things that are specific to a location are custom deliveries and restoration collectables

leaden ginkgo
#

Im guessing you can only get one Savage book per week? i.e one Book of Fulmination?

pearl wharf
#

well...

#

and im trying to figure out why abalathian rock salt cannot be turned in to the collectable appraiser

mossy tartan
#

Will ||eden shiva’s|| twin attack always attack the group first, then the tank?

twilit arch

is it being requested?

twilit arch

house of splendors requests rotate every day

pearl wharf
#

well is there a way for me to know what gets rotated in and what gets rotated out?

obsidian patio
#

no way to predict when an item will be requested

pearl wharf
#

fuq

warped nest
#

They will be pulled from a known pool

twilit arch
#

the timers menu shows when request is going to change

#

you can also view what's being requested for the day from it

#

so always check what items are being requested before you go and gather or craft

pearl wharf
#

i mostly do gathering

Hiya, I'm trying to register an account for ffxiv, but the loadstone, mog-station and the free trial page are constantly disconnecting or failing to load.

wintry chasm
#

EU?

acoustic shadow
#

Yes, im trying to register in the ue

#

*EU

wintry chasm
#

There is some sort of connection problem in parts of the EU. Not sure what the problem is exactly but I know before when something similar happened it was because some internet node thintymajig broke between the regions and the SE servers so yeah

#

Might be that

oak ice
#

@leaden ginkgo, yes, 1 savage book per floor of the current tier, until it's unlocked a couple weeks before the next tier

acoustic shadow
#

Hmm, thanks Calisae, I guess I should just wait a day or two and try again then?

wintry chasm
#

maybe?

#

Could try to get around with a VPN too probably

#

just make sure you select the right country and stuff on the account details

acoustic shadow
#

I actually live in the ME, so regardless, my IP will be out of EU after the registration.

leaden ginkgo
#

so if youre unlucky it can literally take half a year to actually ger proper pieces

#

Hello everyone! How does one add "class flairs" on reddit ffxiv?

slate arrow
#

Mobile, old, or new reddit?

#

Old reddit there should be your name on the right side

kind jungle
#

New reddit, desktop version

slate arrow
#

you can select flairs from a submenu

#

ah, I don't think picture flairs work on new reddit. I might be mistakened

kind jungle
#

? But I see plenty of people with their ":healer2:" icons just next to their names...

#

I might be using the wrong terminology, sorry, Reddit is a mystery to me 😄

slate arrow
#

Emphasis on why I might be mistakened. There should be a submenu next to your name on the right side which allows you to select flairs

#

new reddit has stripped a lot of features away unfortunately

#

for the sake of modern social media uniformity

dusky nebula
#

so i bought FFXIV on steam, if i purchase the Shadowbringers DLC i get all the other one included right? or can you redeem a steam key for a specific DLC

twilit arch
#

shadowbringers comes with previous expansions, yes

jade quartz
#

Starter Edition + Shadowbringers = you have everything.

#

The other expansions are no longer separately retailed

dusky nebula
#

so i can't redeem a key for heavensword for example? i have to buy shadowbringers

twilit arch
#

i would be very surprised if you could find a digital code for heavensward at this point

jade quartz
#

Some retail copies of Heavensward could potentially still exist in the world

twilit arch
#

unless you got it during the time they were giving it away free before shb reelase

jade quartz
#

They would be a waste of your money

dusky nebula
#

i'm just asking

split remnant
#

Didn't each expansion cost as much as every single one combined does right now?

jade quartz
#

Official sellers no longer have them

#

Yep

dusky nebula
#

so official ones don't have them, hmm i think i know where to find them 🙂

split remnant
#

Yeah, it was 40 bucks for Heavensward+Stormblood as well :P

warped nest
#

...????

split remnant
#

There's pretty much no point in not getting them all.

warped nest
#

Why are...

twilit arch
#

realistically there is no reason to buy heavensward specifically

#

shadowbringers gives you the previous two expansions, so you'd just end up paying more for no real good reason

jade quartz
#

Also codes from non-official sites are

dusky nebula
#

yes there is none,but its good to know if you are capable to do it or not

split remnant
#

@dusky nebula It is possible but through sites that aren't officially supported in any way.

twilit arch
#

any heavensward or stormblood codes are either old or going to be from shady sites

jade quartz
#

Very often paths to getting your account banned

twilit arch
#

so its not recommend at all to buy those

jade quartz
#

Because these codes are traced.

dusky nebula
#

well i just bought the starter edition for now, lets see how the game is first

warped nest
#

Just want to put in a reminder that, yes, you will save money if you buy just HW from 3rd party... But it is not worth it no matter how you see it

primal relic
#

Do mounts have different speed?

split remnant
#

Buying from 3rd party sites is like having a blind man shoot at you. Yes, the chances are he'll miss but why take the risk?

twilit arch
#

SDS fenrir comes with the first tier of movement speed automatically, whether you've gotten that yet or not. However once you've earned that (which comes mostly from the main scenario quest), its the same movement speed as all other mounts @primal relic

warped nest
#

Yes, there are two tier (?) of ground speed

#

And then air speed

primal relic
#

Idk I’m currently at priest kidnapping. Feels very slow I gotta run back and forth

jade quartz
#

Larger mounts may feel slower because you’re higher off the ground

#

But the actual speed is identical.

primal relic
#

I don’t even have a mount. So I’ve been just walking from area to area using sprint when it’s off CD
