I see, and the apocrypha is also once a week, I assume
Reason why savage also drops a book
So if you're super unlucky, you will eventually be able to buy what you want
gotcha, thanks for the help!
In addition if you skip a floor, you immediately lose all loot rights for.skipped floors
The momenr you enter a higher floor
Open up HUD and move it?
Damn you right :/

@faint flare so basically, for every week
you have to do them from e5s - e8s?
hoto change this shit
If you want loot
Character config > hotbars and one of the of the tabs lets you change how the hotbar looks
The option is also in the hud editor by clicking the cog when selecting a hotbar
Good place to get glamour besides mb? I dont like the options there
Gold saucer has some
Meh those werent great either
I just want a good looking shirt and slacks for my elezen
Well MB has all the crafted stuff so
Everything's either ruffled or cowboy looking
Glade slops when dyed looks like some jeans
I don't do Gold Saucer stuff often, but I LOVE the leap of faith event. I probably haven't done it since last year, and I tried it yesterday and noticed that it was a different map (yesterday looked like Sea of Clouds, previously it was like Ul'dah looking). How many maps are there for leap of faith, and what decides which one you play?
The Ul'dahn one is the Belah'dian ruin in Eastern Thanalan--you can view it normally from Highbridge. (Not Rhalgr)
I believe the time the gate is determines what it is
And the Floating City of Nym is visible normally from the western side of Outer La Noscea.
I remember seeing in the patch notes they brought the city of nym in they changed the gate schedule
And that showed what you get each time a gate is.up
Coolio, are there any other fun or intricate platforming/jumping challenges in that game? Someone mentioned the Stormblood city
Kugane jumping puzzle....
Kugane has a few jumping puzzles, including the biggest and most famous one, the Shiokaze Hostelry.
I remember the Pitioss Ruins in Final Fantasy XV and that just blew me away. Would love a 3-4 hour platforming section in this game tbh
There's a sightseeing log objective at the top.
It's harder than a Leap of Faith map.
You can take 3-4 hours lol
Cool, I'm in Heavensward now so I have a ways to go
Here's the GATE schedule btw
Where is the setting to change novice network chat color?
BTW though there are only two possible environments for Leap of Faith, the actual layout of the jumping platforms there are randomised each time
Ooh, so every 20 minutes on the hour is one, and the 20 minute increments between is the other.
I'm not sure how many different variants there are.
Yeah I did the city of nym twice yesterday and it felt different.
The Shirogane housing district has a jumping puzzle in it, on a lighthouse on a rock in the water. There's no reward for doing that one, except for having a nice location to take a screenshot.
It's also the one I feel is the most frustrating.
Oh and every year at the Moonfire Faire (summer festival holiday event, takes place during August) there's a big wooden jumping puzzle tower temporarily on the beach in Eastern La Noscea.
That one's also very difficult.
It'd be cool if they added a leap of faith-esque area/dungeon specifically to get as creative as possible and make it long and tough with a cool reward at the end. Rather than just sneaking it into existing areas.
Lmao there is one dungeon with a tightrope mechanic
lol which one is that?
Thancred cheats...
Its funny to rescue people off it 
||Urianger cheats harder.||
He be like "screw gravity" teleports
Sidebar, why does it seem like there's weapon glamour for every class but GNB at Gold Saucer?
Is it just cause its newer, or do some jobs just get the shaft sometimes?
I think it's because it's newer
Like there prob isn't dancer either
Or maybe even rdm
I'm not sure
Gotcha 🙂
The gold saucer weapons are very cool
I'm all in with GNB at the moment, spent my life savings in gil getting the glamour and the look just right XD
Nice lol
Hi! You can only receive one reward from Eden raids once a week? Did I understand correctly?
Si no point in farming after I got one Antiquity?
Not from that fight no
Thanks!
You can farm the last fight if you Reallllly want the minion
But wont get anything else
Whats the rewarded minion?
8 drops the wind up ||Ryne||
Thanks 😊!
What's the deal with the info in #translations-and-liveletters ? It says "rerun" but there's a lot of new information about upcoming patches
SE are rerunning old live letters by Yoshi is talking in the chat
Oh okay so he's been talking about new stuff too
aside from the achievements/itinerant moogle rewards, what are some easy to get mounts I can get at around level 62 (level 52 MSQ HW)
He's been throwing tidbits and thoughts about stufd
I unlocked the Binding Coil of Bahamut the other day. Never did it before, is it like a trial or a normal dungeon? Could just try it but I'm a little intimidated by its 5 different stages/rounds lol
Is it just cause its newer, or do some jobs just get the shaft sometimes?
@spice shell both imo, GNB and DNC starts at lvl 60, but they don't have any lvl 60 weapons from the HW contents (aside from Shinryu, which was added recently)
Your best bet is probably to make a party finder for it, unsync (mention that you're a first timer), and tell people that you want to watch the cutscenes and not skip them (if you do, which you should, it's major story content).
Would it be better for me to DPS first to learn the mechanics before tanking? or doesnt really matter
SAM and RDM starting weapon are i115, and they still get lower ilvl ARR primal weapons
Doesn't really matter
Why is it best to unsync? (i only have a vague understanding of what it means to unsync for a duty/dungeon/raid)
Because your goal is probably to clear
Coils are very difficult content. Doing them synced will take a lot of learning time and it will be difficult finding people willing to join you.
If your goal is to experience the content as it was, then you don't want unsync
so you mean level sync right? unsyncing probably makes it easier because im not being held down at all stat-wise
Unsync turns off the level sync and all
Unsyncing basically means a bunch of level 80s carry you and faceroll most of the fights.
So you enter with whatever level and stats you are currently
is syncing just for masochists then? 😄
Uh...more or less, I guess.
For hard content like coils and extremes, yes
and people who like a challenge, im jk 🙂
where do i material that spawn chocobird to heal me in battle
People who like a challenge are usually doing current endgame content.
I recommend you unsync through Coils to get the clear, and maybe someday if you have an interest in going back and doing the fights for real you can.
Doing older savage/extreme content synced is a bit more niche.
unsync you mean?
ok, ive never really used party finder but ill try and set it up. would like to experience it in some capacity
thanks for the advice
or maybe get some FC folks to join me
Is there a way to get custom resolution on borderless? My monitor's is 1920x1080 but for some reason borderless forces 1280x720 and cna't even change it into another preset.
@spice shell yeah if your fc is chill, it's nice to do it with ppl who will let you watch the cutscenes lol
they're pretty cool. dunno if anyone will want to/be available for it but I can ask
Yeah the story in Coil is quite significant
At the same time, you'll prob be successful with party finder since Bahamut is often in wondrous tails
Though most of the major stuff is towards the end.
wondrous tails?
There are 13 floors of Coil, btw, not just 5.
think i saw 5 in the duty finder
You've only unlocked the five in the first tier.
ah ok, so that probably takes a while lol
After completing the fifth, you'll follow a quest to unlock the next four
and then the final four.
You get the other floors when you do floor 5, and 9
Eh getting through them all unsynced will just take an evening or two.
Wondrous tails is a weekly "book" that you need to fill by doing a bunch of different dungeons, raids etc
when foxy lady spawn its shown on the map?
Technically you can just do the final one of each tier (so 5, 9 and 13) to complete the questline, but if you want to experience it all then do them all.
Wondrous tails is a weekly "book" that you need to fill by doing a bunch of different dungeons, raids etc
@crimson crystal do you get anything for it?
and gil
When I reach the end of main shb msq, will I be able to buy gear with poetics? Or other tomestones?
You can buy allegory gear (current ilvl) or phantasmagoria gear
How do I become first flame lieutenant?
do the lvl 40 flagged mission for your squadron.
I'm level 60-ish and just started HW MSQ the other day. I've long since hit my cap on poetics because I've bought all the ironworks gear and toys I could from the NPC in Mor Dhona. Is there anything else I can spend it on, or do I just need to keep going through the MSQ to unlock level 60 gear?
!faq poetics
You can go ahead and buy the level 60 gear to prepare for when you're there
You can go ahead and buy the level 60 gear to prepare for when you're there
@crimson crystal I don't think I have access to a NPC with 60 gear yet
Ah fair enough
Ok, so I guess it's whatever level gear I can and mats for relic weapons
and minions and orchestration rolls, which ive mostly bought out
good to know 🙂
Yeah if you plan on doing anima weapon, you'll need a lot of poetics-acquired materials
First grind step is the unidentifiable stuff
So maybe buy 10 each of those
Do I need any crafting jobs leveled for the relic weapons?
no
yaay
most of them have one stage that uses player made stuff, but gil is the best gatherer
running as synced BLU is always 100% learnrate or only for the 3 spells (mindblast, glower, erruption)?
you'll have about 2m if you finish the MSQ and dont blow your gil on GP jet black dyes
thanks for all the help everyone 🙂 now i gotta go reinstall windows lol
have a nice day!
How do I check my active hunts after I accept them?
the hunt board ones? check your key items bag
The one from the hunt board
@slate arrow sry, worded that wrong..i was asking about all 64 BLU spells
for all spells? ty 🙂
there's websites which have the location for marks
Oh
exact location, not so much, but it should tell you the name
but you're supposed to look for them on your own
APPROXIMATE location it will
It says bloody Mary. Is that a monster name?
all B rank marks automatically respawn within 5 seconds of being slain iirc
mhm
Ty
For A ranks (?) B ranks aka big bois you'll get a dialogue that says "you sense your mark to the <direction>" and that'll help you find it when it's spawned
no, its for S ranks
Ah okay
"You sense your mark to the <direction>" specifically though is for B ranks
S ranks is "You sense the presence of a powerful mark"
Ah I see
One’s commends are only viewable to himself, right?
Like if you get commended? Yeah that's private
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
What about the accumulated amount of commends?
@leaden ginkgo
Are they viewable by other players as well?
That's private too
Okay, thank you
Idk if there's some website that you can look up people on but that's kinda toxic
o.0
Ok
not like commendations really mean anything 
They mean I did a good job 
I’m 5 min late to this convo, but re: the guy asking about poetics... I’m a little confused cuz I’m level 56 and in the endless stream of busywork MSQs between ARR and HW. I want to grind dungeons for poetics to stock up on stuff, but I also keep reading HW quests are at level 50 and I don’t wanna over level too much. What should I do here?
In general this massive stretch of post-ARR/pre-HW quests feels really badly designed.
Is the hunt target location random?
@wise portal so after you get augmented ironworks there isnt a lot to get with poetics. Until the shire*
Also the level 50 dungeons that give poetics dont give much if any xp
You could always pick up Red Mage and Samurai which start at level 50 and use those for questing and dungeons
and soak up some xp
^ id say don't worry about overlevelling though
Hmm. I feel like by the time I get augmented ironworks, I’m gonna be level 60 at which point I’ll be able to move on to better gear, yes? Provided I’ve unlocked those vendors.
It just means playing less catch up later when the quests outlevel you
And everything syncs anyhow
I wouldn't bother grinding it out for that Bridge
Yeah I just dislike unlocking skills/abilities and getting used to them only to be locked out of them later, only hesitation about over leveling
because tbh by the time you are done with the patch stuff you'll have so much poetics from the mandatory stuff
Hi guys, im not understanding botany levequests. It just gives me a green circle on a map and nothing to gather :/
Im just myself getting to HW and the story sets your content and gameplay level more than your actual character level
So if your on level 50 quests youre kinda still level 50
For it to actually start
In a sense
Oh do MSQs give poetics later? None of the ones in this stretch I’m in now have been
Thank you @faint flare
The green circle is just where the leve takes place
Some Msq quests and the crystal tower stuff will give poetics
The quests that lead you to dungeons anyways
If I assign a glamour plate to a gear set, and switch to that gearset say, in the middle of a dungeon, will the glamour plate still be applied? Or will it give me an error message?
It'll be an error
aww
@oblique yew B/S/A ranks are "Random" within a specific set of spawn locations
http://cablemonkey.us/huntmap2// has maps with the possible spawn locations of every B/S/A rank
Hyur or Au Ra for ninjas ? which is might be the best looking race for it ?
hey guys im new to FFXIV and im trying to download the free trial but it pops up with Unable to download patch files [30413][25008][20495] please help
@vivid agate - Google it bro, there are several clips on youtube on how to fix it.
the animations are functionally similar
@vivid agate the download is literally the worst
lore-wise, aura would probably fit a bit better
But with patience it should go ok
cause they're the race that gets the asian character tropes dumped on them
is there a updated BLU chart sorted by lvl to obtain and places? the guide i found is old and only has the first 48. https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/adsdil/blu_spoilers_blue_magic_learning_guide/
i found https://ffxivcollect.com/spells, but it isnt sorted by lvl
dead silence xD
When do I unlock this Rowena's token exchange?
I'm way past that
wasnt rowena the lvl 50 token?
The girl on the right side of the girl who sells the ironwork gear is where I get the token exchange right?
or the lvl 60 in idleshire?
imo yes
Purchased from Auriana in Mor Dhona (x22,y6) for 40 Allagan Tomestone of Poetics each
Talking about the crafter/gatherer ones
Which is unlocked by doing the Inscrutable taste quest in ishgard
For crafters and gathering
Are yellow quests required to complete? or you can just finish the MSQ + Blue quests
No
are entirely optional;
I don't think that's the one
I'm trying to get the ironwork samurai sword
Yellow questd are primarily lore and a small bit of xp
they're mostly there for lore/story
Thank you
Just buy the rowena tokens from the girl who sells ironworks gear
Its in the "other" tab
Lol
@topaz furnace MSQ-Quest story progression: Blue-quest unlocking something (mechanic, feature and so on), yellow quest: side quest and completly optional and not needed at all
I'm so stupid
Does shadow wall and rampart stack?
Yes, multiplicity
Meaning rampart and shadow wall ISN'T 50% mitigation
Oh
Thats additive
So what is it
Now heres a question. Do those buffs stack in a predetermined order
Or in order of cast
Like 0.8 x 0.7
Order doesn't matter, it would have the same effect
How do you determine it's 44% from . 56 result?
@raw solstice i am bad at math lol
1 - .56
Cause 0.56 of the full damage
Oh, I'm dumb
I never realised the math goes the same either way
1 is the full damage

I just unlocked whm and looked at my whm actions... Do I see it correctly that I can't use lilies to aoe heal?
Not until 76
!action Afflatus Rapture
With afflatus rapture
So the WHM plenary indulgence confession stacks no longer get consumed?
also another question: how should I weave on whm? Both Stone and Holy are 2.5s cast time, so is Cure II, and whm has no equivalent of Ruin II. Am I missing something?
You just use it any it triggers from aoe heals
Usually weaved woth aero, regen or lily heals
Assize is generally clipped because its so good
which merchant was it that sells food for chocobo
I'm at level 50 but still 3/4 through the main story, what should I do for getting equipment? basically all dungeons so far are too low level to give out anything worthwile.
Also should I do something with the grand company? how do I get a lot of their tokens?
Any general merchant
which merchant was it that sells food for chocobo
@lilac mulch the only merchant I ever saw selling the gysal greens was in bentbranch meadows
Any general merchant will sell then
@rugged osprey
Bear with your ilvl90 artifact gear until you finish the Ultima Weapon storyline, then you can buy ilvl120 (upgradable to 140) poetic gear.
And your GC seals can be used to buy gear to desynth (it's actually pretty crap gear), crafting materials, ventures and ranking up in your GC.
You can get GC seals by leveling queue, fates, and expert delivery, but you shouldn1t grind for them at this level.
those poetic things are only gained after the end of the storyline?
With lv50/60/70 content
new player here, which Grand Company should I choose? xD
none giving me the shop option
Thats for chocobo racing
guess I'll continue the main story on a more level appropriate class so it doesn't get boring and I actually gain something
Candy, go to Gridania and start off towards the Grand Company HQ. You'll see a vendor called "Black Rabbit Trader".
They'll sell you gysahl greens
that guy over there
aha repairmens are also merchants
They'll say "merchant and repair"
menders just repeair
ul'dah's is basically opposite the eastern quicksand exit
some do both
limsa i have no idea
I beleive they have a hybrid symbol on your map that looks like a bag crossed with a hammer
if they're both?
In limsa there's an armor guy east from aetherite
I mean west
East is a weapons guy
😄
wow
Bruh
so i just spawn choco and it will start heal me in battle insta or?
Yeah
assuming you put points into the healer tree, yes
where to find the tree?
Companion menu
just put points into healing then
leveling is VERY slow... unless I missed something, so question: is it supposed to be slow? is there a way to farm chocobo points?
have it out while you're doing stuff, and complete challenge log
If you have access to a stable (either by personal/free company house or apartment) you can also feed it every hour to give it exp
is stuff from the challenge log automatically redeemed?
yes
Well most of it. A few achievements come with items you redeem at an npc in gridania
Like the ones for commendations
That same npc is where you can trade cheevo points for some cool stuff too
Johanas in old gridania
achievements =/= challenge log
just noticed when i eat one of the spawn things and i then mount i lose my choco,. do i neeed to reeat each time?
My bad
Some of the challenge logs trigger achievements, right? Thats why I keep mixing it up
no
🤔
What are the most controller friendly classes for each role?
All of them
All of them imo
like some challenge logs are also things that will naturally worked towards certain achievements
but they're not specifically tied to challenge log per se
You can very easily fit everything on every job on controller
Theres so many skills. Feels weird to switch crossbar pages
But you dont though
No need for hotbar swapping
Make use of the expanded and wxhb hotbars
Aka the double tap trigger and the hold both triggers
Can very easily access 3 hotbars without swapping
challenge logs is that the same as hunting log?
like craft 30 items will work towards crafting X amount of 1-10 items or craft 100 collectables
no
hunting log is entirely different things
challenge log is unlocked in limsa, at the drowning wench, with the quest called "Rising to the Challenge"
Oh that's pretty handy. Thanks.
Can you apply "generic" glamours into class specific items? Like DoW glamour on a DRK artifact gear.
yes
As long as you can equip it you can glamour.it
so long as you can equip it, you can use it as glamour
Is it weird/stupid that as a new player I’ve got anxiety about missing shit from old raids that people don’t queue for anymore? Like I want the freaking Kefka minion deep in my bones, no where near that content tho.
It drops in normal mode
Which is in the normal mode roulette
So it pops now and then
Kinda the point of roulettes, so old content isnt entirely dead
^
roulettes specifically exist so that there's always a pool of people available to fill out parties for old content
It's a beautiful system

Hello. I'm new to FFXlV and I keep seeing players reference being a static or look for a static. What exactly does that mean?
A static group of people who run high end content together
Best way to level as a tank?
Dungeons
Ok so daily roulette then spam the highest level dungeon?
Yes
With the exception of level 50, 60 or 70 dungeons.
Whatcha mean?
If you're level 60, you should still be spamming the level 59 dungeon.
Old level cap dungeons give shit xp
Oh
And the dungeons prior give more
Well good to know
This is because level 50/60/70 dungeons (past level caps) are intended to give tomestones rather than exp.
Due to old level cap dungeons not having xp in the first place so its tacked on
Hey, guys. For a hunt like the Fox Lady, do we need to be in a party with others in order to get the ticket thingies to exchange with the npc in rhalg ar? Or it doesn't matter and you can be solo/be party with someone else and still contribute damage and get the reward?
You can be solo.
Being in a party is preferred to make it easier
However, being in a party means that contribution is shared
So it's recommended to ensure that you get the max reward.
But if you participate solo for example, you still going to get a token reward?
Yes
Interesting.
But depending on your contribution, you may not get the maximum token amount.
^
Is there a way to get Cash-shop items ingame?
No
If it is like 3-4 tokens for solo that still will be good.
@leaden ginkgo the dyes, yes
Dyes you can but thats it
that's all.
Hi guys. What does evaluation bonus means for botany when it says 320~ +25%?
Plenty
There are hundreds of outfits in the game
and mounts
The cash shop represents a very small section of what's available.
The cash shop has like probably less than 1% of all mounts and glamour
Alright, thank you! Thats all I wanted to hear to be satisfied with the game
A large part of the cash shop is also the "seasonal" section, which consists of items that were previously available for free through ingame seasonal events.
Is it just me or is the hidden gorge gives a ton of exp
PvP gives decent exp
If you win
not the best method, but if you're doing it anyway then queue up on a job you're leveling and you'll get some stuff.
The exp goes to the job you queued up on--you can change jobs as much as you like while inside the PvP match and it will not affect this.
Daily roulettes, dungeons, Palace of the Dead/Heaven-on-High, daily hunt bills, FATEs
PvP's not a priority method for leveling if you want exp efficiency.
The exp is a decent bonus if you're already doing PvP for another reason though
or just for fun
Frontlines roulette would gove a bigger bonus on completion conpared to hidden gorge anyways
Yeah Frontline daily challenge is good
But if you're farming mooglr tomes you might as well take advantage of it
...if it actually pops.
Hey everyone
G'day
Yeah- Ive been doing dailies everyday. Was just wondering if there are other methods like pvp
I've learned more in the past 2 min reading this channel, than I have in hours reading the google and watching YouTube.
Hmm, this is pretty weird. Is AST more loved than WHM? I’m getting double the commendations I get on AST
Nah?
@austere vale It means if you finish with a rating above 320, you'll get 25% bonus exp when you complete it.
I suppose some people might be made more conscious of your presence by being given card buffs
Quick question, ive just started how do i find ppl to pay with ? I write in server but no response lol
that is true
Play*
@strange coral but what is rating? or how do you obtain certain rating status?
You either ask in shout chat or look here in discord for others to play with
try asking in different times of the day
@austere vale you're doing a fieldcraft leve right? Gathering items increases your rating. It's like 4 rating for the lower-level item, 6 for the higher-level, more difficult item
or maybe 6 and 8
something like that.
Getting the highest rating level isn't usually too difficult.
@mossy tartan good idea lol im on na Excalibur lol lots of ppl not alot of talking lol
Just use your TP on gathering rate buffs to get the higher-level item
By gathering the harder to get items iirc. Like lower chance of obtaining. Risking getting nothing or getting higher score
and otherwise spam the lower one.
where do you see the rating next to items? I guess thats what I am confused about
Is the rating next to percecption on an item? Example: Percecption>1020
No
@blazing spindle I'm having the same issue on Framfrit. Doesnt appear to be a lot of in game chat
The rating is not displayed anywhere on the item itself.
You simply keep an eye on the rating meter in duty information (on the right-hand side of your screen where the leve timer and other info is)
ok
Just double-checked, it's 7 evaluation rating for the lower-level of the two items in the leve nodes, and 9 for the higher-level one.
This is consistent across all of these evaluation-type fieldcraft leves.
If I'm on primal and my friend is on crystal is there any way we can do roulettes together?
Nope, barring paying for a server transfer
what books do i have to get for this and the quarrying ones?
Best crafting class to start off with?
cus i have the harvesting one
And also does the road to 70 work with crafter classes too?
but logging is empty?
@azure kettle the best way to leveling crafting is level them all at once
as you will need to craft materials from one class
or multiple classes
for one recipe
Ok, so do mining and gathering to get mats then work on the others with that?
yes
Does road to 70 affect the exp I get for them?
dont think so
road to 70 works on every class iirc
@slender yew lol its like im surrounded by ppl petting each other haha. Is this what end game is? Lmao
road to 70 works on everything
@blazing spindle Lol I can't tell
@slender yew. If you play on Excalibur ever lmk im new but im looking to meet new ppl. I def need ppl to play with
you've bought and used Tome of Geological Folklore - Othard? @pearl wharf
is there a way to see the speed increase % that you are currently traveling?
@twilit arch yeh
@slender yew primal too Excalibur is the data center i think
uh, excalibur is a world within the Primal datacenter
see
then there are no quarrying nodes
cos the only things for that folklore book is azim spring water, nightsteel, palladium and silvergrace
Can you transfer servers within the same data center?
you can use world visit, yes
@slender yew so someone from another world can join my world?
yup
@agile laurel fancy i like
as long as they're on the same datacenter
Yes, provided they're on the same data centre
can I get tomestone emote still?
Yes
theoretically yes, i've had probs getting the app to connect recently thouygh

You have to do the unlock quests @austere vale
If you go to travel and press aether currents
How can I check my existing characters height if I didn't save their appearance data?
You don’t just collect currents through map
Are all of them highlighted
oh, which quests in il meg?
Blue ones and msq
@cerulean pewter Look for someone with a crown next to their name, any crown will do. /tell them for an invite.
The quest will show you can unlock it as a reward
It can be a big crown, a crown with a sword or a crown with a hammer
you can right click on the character at character select and "save appearance data"
ok thank you @sand flame I forgot about the blue quests
so you can double check in character creation
Is there a reason to get HQ versions of glam gear?
No
Pride
I see them selling on the market board so I was just curious lol
I always HQ them to show I can HQ it.
Fair enough XD
(Actually speaking, NQ is better because the HQ glint can obscure the icon of the item and make it harder to see wtf it is in the dresser.)
Imagine if hq gear had better appearances than normal gear
There is a specific world i want to create my char in but it's restricted until the restriction is lifted. Is there any specific time for these things ?
After maintenance
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
can i report people for covering npcs and summoning bells with their bodies, minions and/or mounts? i just had to swap regions because one dude had a whole ass car on the npc and no matter where i clicked i couldnt get to it
lucky it wasn't a story npc
Not really, you can press and hold X
"Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status." - crap...
Chaos - Omega server is congested atm
!status Omega
No its not
any reason i can't open a coffer? I'm in my innroom
ahhh okay thanks man
nvm
does anyone understand this whole /say chat when doing quests? This quest has me entering chat mode /say which I do and then say kenn gyuf but doesn't work
It needs to be spelled exactly like it is said
I don't recall this specific quest but you have to target the target and type it out very specifically
interesting, it doesn't say to target
Also I've asked this before, but got no answers
How can I change resolution in borderless? It doesn't allow me to change to other presets, but doesn't allow me to edit custom resolution either. Monitor is 1920x1080 and game forces something like 1280x720 or something.
It should be using whatever resolution you have set in Windows for that monitor
If you have DPI scaling enabled in windows, it might be messing with it. I know it did with mine
what do players do after getting level 80 on every class
idk, progress savage?
@gritty oracle - Try restoring Nvidia's Control Panel to their default settings IF you have an nvidia GPU. And check if you have DPI Scaling set to on and turn it off.
Does Fantasia only affect appearance? Or does it change job as well?
and fantasia doesn't do names either
To change race and appearance
Any way to really tell how my tanking is? Some goods I'm like paper, others no one dies
Some groups*
Are you cycling cooldowns and keeping aggro?
Yea, aggro isn't the problem
is your healer healing you
I just don't get healed enough
As long as you're rotating cooldowns you're fine
then ¯_(ツ)_/¯
what are you, where are you, what's the healer?
But idk if it's because I'm not mitigating enough or it's the healer
Astro, aurum Vale and a drk
are you getting the morbol fruit?
aurum vale is a rough healer check also, could be hard if the healer is at level
Dont take avoidable damage etc
I'm not in the dungeon anymore, we couldn't get through the first pull so everyone left
then prob the healer
The first room can go south quick
were you pulling too much?
that sounds like a healer that didn't gear themselves then tried to heal AV at level
If people accidently pull more
I mean I pulled 3 to 5 enemies
it's prob healer
At a time
i've had a few cases of healers who didn't get their accessories leveled and thought they could do aurum vale
Like the swamp water?
yea the yellow stuff

When should I use Sheltron as pld?
Its your short defensive cooldown
Akin to raw intuition, heart of stone and tbn
Sprinkle it into your cooldown rotation
Does the main quest give me a mount or is it a blue one
Yes
Thank you once again Vinyl 🙂
@azure kettle really hard to say
Without knowing your ilvl and healer's
Ie: sometimes the healer is actually just that bad
I just finished the 2.0 MSQ and I'm wondering if I should now unlock all the side stuff like primals and other things or just continue on with the MSQ until I reach the end of Shadowbringers?
Msq is always top priority
the only primal stuff left to unlock are the EXs
and you don't really need those now
And hard mode for story
oh I thought they said done with all of ARR
2.0
Yeah I still have 2.1-2.55 to get through before heading into the expansions. I'll continue on with the MSQ. Thanks for the help.
You'll need to do the line with "a Recurring problem" or you'll get locked
I saw that the lion from the Shadowbringers trailer is also a mount. Is it difficult to obtain?
no
Ok cool. Ill be sure to pick that up as well
@leaden ginkgo you get it from hunts
So it isn't even a random drop?
While Im progressing through the Shadowbringers msq, with my Dragoon already being 80 and meanwhile leveling my Dark Knight from 70 to 80, can I alrdy keep working on my relic weapon? I am capped on Poetics for a while now
you need 3600 kupo hunt voucher (how are they named in EN) for the mount. which is less than 10 shb hunt trains i think.
they're called "sack of nuts"
"kupo trophy", if i translate the german word
kupo trophy sounds better than nut sack
How to get ifrit katana?
the glowing one?
thats the problem with not playing in english. you never know how things are called in other languages
Yes
craft or buy it
Buy from market board?
167k in louisoix
Do I go to craftsman's guild?
that's how it be
I've never crafted anything before
non glowing version is from hard mode
it's a lvl 50 craft
Do I first need the non glowing one to then make it glowing?
170k odd on crystal
nop
Is there any way to check online the list of materials needed to complete each of the Crafting logs pages? it's annoying browsing one by one to see the mats
It's not there on market board
nothing specifically For each page, but you can always make craft lists on garlandtools or teamcraft
can also use world visit to check other world's marketboards
^
Well im starting out so just using the FC vendor

Does a piece of equipment not become untradeable until you get into a fight with it?
Or how does that work?
It also bonds to you if you use it for glamour
Right, but at what point does that happen?
Right when you put it on?
Like if I put on a piece, can I not trade it anymore?
Or is it only when you fight with it that that happens?
Gotcha
Thanks
Is there a list anywhere of all the actions that do that?
Or is it just job actions? Fighting/gathering/crafting?
what level do i need to be to start doing dungeons?
Pretty much when you enter combat and do/take damage with it on
15
The first dungeon is via story
You unlock your first dungeon at story level 15
At 15 ish
is there a discord for like hunts and fate grinds?
thx!
Not sure if this is the right place to ask or not; i've been trying to look on google and etc, but are there any discords for eureka or BA? I cannot seem to find one for aether
Check the Eurekan explorers discord
Thats the big hub of eureka stuff
@last ibex
Thanks!
whats the crystal tower questline? heard quite a bit about it lol
Hey guys - can someone help to find me the right FFXIV Complete edition in czech republic? I would like to buy one. Too many versions which cost totally differently
is there any way to obtain estinien's bloodsoaked version of his job armor?
hey, trying to glamour lvl 70 items onto my neo ishgardian gear and I get this warning
Hi im a returning player any scholar that can send me their UI?thanks.
guess i'll get that done then tyty
any idea why? It's the quest reward gear from 70lvl paladin quest, it's way lower level than neo ishgardian
Your current job must be able to equip it
@frozen violet You can make the armor set you receive dyeable and dye it red
do you have to do the amdapor keep dungeon to get the quest for hard mode?
yes
hard mode dungeons require the normal mode completed
Yes. All HM dungeons require clearing their previous version to unlock.
Hi, I'm doing 5.1 quests and the dungeon require 430 ilevel, is there shop with poetics for that ilevel?
no, you need to use phantasmagoria or nuts to boost your ilvl
didn't you get your artifact gear?
Can someone help me with my question please?:
I just finished the ShB
unlock the Eden raids
Is the raid hard?
Either farm amaourut, twinning and akademis andyer for accessories or do hunts for i440 to get ilvl for the dungeon and eden raids
No
Its normal mode content
and what I do with allegory?
Buy i490 gear
k, and they sell rings and all this items or only armor?
Everything
Also do the lv70 24man quest line at some point if you haven't already so you can get your free i485 relic weapon
only allegory has weekly cap?
yea
relic weapon is the endgame weapon?
No
not really
Its a casual catch up weapon
the relic weapon is only 485
crystarium is 490
and Eden savage is 505
for weapons
you upgrade them with alliance raids?
no
Relics no
the alliance raid is to UNLOCK the weapon
Crystarium yes once 5.38 hits
Yes
why should I do lv 70 alliance raid to unlock SB relic weapon instead of lv 80 alliance raid?
how can I join the novice chat thingy?
Because the 80 doesn't unlock the Shadowbringers relics
the lvl 70 raid quest line unlocks the relic weapon quest line
that's just how they made it
You have to be invited by a mentor @proper remnant
oh
so how do I do that?
@dapper echo are you trying to purchase from the square enix store
Ask a mentor for a invite
thanks a lot for all info
how?
Whisper to someone with a crown for an invite
Find someone with a crown next to.their name
you can shout in a main city state
And ask
/shout can i have an NN invite?
Or shout
I am not in a city
And I should do daily roulette for the tomestones?
go to one
Then go to one
one of the three cities you've been to
if you just started
you only have access to one
either Limsa Lominsa, Uldah, or Gridania
how long does the sprout stay on your name?
For 1 week's playtime and you have beaten 4.5
it tells me: Cannot execute at this time.
4.5?
are you in combat?
When you reach Shadowbringers
No I am dead
You can do /nastatus off
so revive yourself
click the return to homepoint button herz
how?
Hold down on the button
which button?
Click and hold the button on the popup
you on ps4 or pc herz?
PC
rip cant help you idk the PC controls
When you feed you're chocobo food to change its color at the stable does it have to remain there until the 6 hours are up
yes
you have ot leave it there for the full 6 hours
Ah okay
make sure you've fed them completely as well
not just stopping after " your chocobo is growing new feathers"
Herz, you should have either of those on the screen
can't someone resurrect me?
It won't say Eulmore, but it will say something else
You won't lose anything by returning
so it will take you there
@little swift there's a limit?
there's no limit but to change the colour properly to what you want
you have to feed it the right amount of each food
Oh, well I looked up a guide to get its color black. So i think I fed it the right amounts. I'll just have to wait and see
good luck with that
one of the hardest colors to get
using a color calculator helped
is there pvp in ff14?
@little swift No - seems not possible to buy it in czech crowns
yes belmont
yeah there is
so i am trying on other websites
hmmm have you tried steam?
anyway thanks a lot for all help, have good day/night
is there no PayPal equivalent that lets you convert currency?
steam usually doesn't have regional restrictions
@little swift no, but i will check it out
How is it that you can get additional materia on stuff? Like, I have neo-ishgardian pieces on a few of my jobs now but it seems there's only space for say, crit or DH

you mean extra slots?
i suppose, yes
I don't think you can force more crit on gear if it's already capped
woNdErFuL so i suppose i need to actually level my crp then
if there's no room for the stat you want then put another stat on it
cause I take it one would need to be geared 80 to overmeld geared 80
adding slots won't change the cap
aware of that
meld chance is based on the materia
and slot
like at this point, i wouldn't overmeld neo-ishgardian
unless you have a pile of materia to spare
i have 100 clusters each
^ especially when the gear from the EX relic stuff is easy to get more or.less
And that has 5 guaranteed slots
Is there stash/storage if my invetory full?
retainers
and chocobo saddlebag

just to put overmelding into perspective, last slot with grade 7 materia is 7% chance to meld
Thanks ^^
@little swift Seems like its a lot more expensive then what I have seen on oter websites o.0
Can you say, then this is the version I need?
https://www.eneba.com/other-final-fantasy-xiv-shadowbringers-complete-edition-official-website-key-global?currency=CZK&gclid=Cj0KCQjwoPL2BRDxARIsAEMm9y8zbzENMMycS2ZtqBjhjan3w4k0HHtWOaAJ9yuoGkBEJqjX_qhLTW4aAgduEALw_wcB
i have never seen that website
i have no idea the reputability of it
use at your own risk
you need eu copy?
I got mine from greenmangaming
can you send me a link pls?
I don't know if this is the best place to ask but
its cdkey download from square enix
Ok cool, will check it out, thanx to everyone!
I belong to eu and bought everything there and worked for me
gl
btw if you need na version you can get from amazon
Any way to sort Inventory with Gear Sets at the top?
I don't think so, I know there's quite a variety of conditions you can use for a macro to sort but i think its only based on like ilvl or stats
yeah these are the possible conditions id, spiritbond, category, lv, ilv, stack, hq, materia, pdamage, mdamage, delay, autoattack, blockrate, blockstrength, defense, mdefense, str, dex, vit, int, mnd, craftsmanship, control, gathering, perception, tab
