Augmented ironworks gear is good enough to get me to lv60? And What should I get at 60?
augmented ironworks should be replaced with either 54 HQ crafted gear or 55 dungeon gear
at 60 you can buy shire gear from idyllshire
Thanks!
no NQ does not
you should pretty much never use NQ crafted gear after 50 for combat jobs
gear from dungeons is nq or hq?
technically HQ
the major differences between HQ and NQ crafted gear is that NQ is not capped on main stat
so its significantly worse than HQ or dungeon/tomestone gear in that regard
Monk have party buffs?
yes, brotherhood and mantra
brotherhood is party buff?
yes it increase phys dmg dealt
Grants Brotherhood and Meditative Brotherhood to all nearby party members.
Brotherhood Effect: Increases physical damage dealt by 5%
Meditative Brotherhood Effect: 30% chance you open a chakra when party members under this effect execute a weaponskill
Duration: 15s
to all nearby party members.
meditative brotherhood only really affects you, but brotherhood itself is for all party members
can i only become white mage if i have shadowbringers?
no
ok ty
!faq job
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
!faq Sam
#kupo-bot-spam please unless you've got a question to ask in addition to the FAQ
I got a friend who made a ff account back on stormblood on the free campaign and bought the game now
When he tries to enter the game, it's asking for the SE ID like the initial install
Does the cap on Wolf Marks ever get raised from 20k?
no
meeeeh, thanks
But the ID is locked
And he can't access his old email related to that account
Any way to fix?
@radiant kelp tell your friend to contact SE support, nothing we can do if you lost your old email
is "coming into its own" the longest part of the grind?
is that the sand step or the light step
hello i bought story realm reborn skipper because i already have finished it
i want where i can get it
@whole leaf moogle mail
after i bought it
the enchanted rubber, carboncoat, divine water, allagan catalyst part
That’s the step with the unids
i will try moogle mail again
If you have ARR beast tribes leveled up it goes by pretty fast
If not then it can take a bit
I don't :)
Just keep up with your daily roulettes that give lots of poetics and you’ll slowly but surely get it done
Oh if you think this step is long future steps are worse
(50/60/70, Main Scenario, and Alliance Raid being the big ones)
you need about 75 umbrites later which cost a large amount of poetics, plus crystal sand which can't be got very quickly unless you use crafters
lvl 60 crafters I assume
I was planning to just grind primal EX for that step
Yeah, just buy the cheap ones and grind for the somewhat more expensive ones
you can press the "Request Delivery" button to try and get the system to hurry up, but items can take a bit to be delivered to you
Yup, the postmoogles have more to do, but i know they will deliver it to you soon.
Make sure to empty your inbox too if it’s close to full
Is it true the DRK makes a better main tank than WAR? Or what do you think would be the better main-tank from place 1-4 and which one would be the off-tank?
Would like to know that, am more of a main-tank type
Do legacy controls only affect camera and WASD movement?
or is there something else I might run into at a critical moment lol
legacy controls affect rotate left/right mainly
if you bind a d to strafe the camera won't turn
Can I turn off all everyone's buffs ticking on and off but still see important ones like my healers bubble?
would it be smart to just level miner/bot to max first ?
I guess the only thing I could see this annoying me with is not being able to just auto run and just control movement with WASD since in standard A and D also turn the camera
b/c as far as gear goes everything is passed to you up until SHB
I'm seeing opo opo form and miekyu suishyi and all that crap
Afaik It'd be ideal to level all three because miner/bot/fish all share gear
save for the primary tool ofc
So I ordered something off mog station, but apparently my mail box was full. It was just one dye, but I can't seem to get the item now.
Moogle said it said mail back?
@leaden ginkgo levelling craft and gathers equally will save you money, though I hear after hw levelling that stuff is way easier
I cleaned up the box and logged out, and back in, and tried to retrieve it but.
No luck.
Fishing you can safely ignore
Is there something I'm supposed to do?
Empty your mail and press the request delivery button
Give it abit of time
Okie dokie
i’ll just wait until hw to touch crafters
If it doesn't come after awhile then send a ticket
oki doki
What’s the best Dps class?
Define best
all of them
As in top DPS. I’m trying to choose a class, I’m more of a guy who like high burst DPS. Glass cannon, like thieves assassins etc
there is no top
play ninja if you like thieves/assassins
machinist has high burst too
Samurai does tons of dps, but its selfish dps
!faq meta
summoner maybe? that one has a two minute cycle with two different burst windows
the three most selfish DPS is BLM, SAM, and Machinist
or red mage? red mage is a caster, but their burst window has them leap toward their target, release a flurry of melee attacks, then jump back and unleash one final devastating spell
Dragoon does high dps, and has team synergy
Wdym by selfish?
Selfish as in it doesn't have any team synergy
red mage burst isnt great
No team buffs
"selfish" means it has no supportive skills
they deal a shitload of damage but bring no buffs or utility to the table
Anyone know how I can get Mastercraft Demimateria? Tried Dysnyth 8x Artisan's Round Knife (from Talan in Mor Dhona) and haven't found any yet. Really want to do it without buying from market.
I like solo’ing stuff too lol
!faq meta
in content you must solo you'll always have a buff which gives you regen and DPS buffs unless you're doing DF content like old extremes and raids
Gamerescape says it should come from the Artisan's Round Knife (or other weapons)
it's just an exceptionally rare desynth
There's a reason why demimateria is expensive on the MB
Okay, so it wasn't patched out into a different item then or something.
what lvl is your desynth level
65.77
because being equal level or higher to the desynth level of the item gives a better chance
the round knife is desynth lvl 70
If you want a higher chance at least
With the most recent updates it's impossible to fail a desynth but having enough desynth skill makes rare items more likely
keep in mind its still a -chance- even if you're 70+
Okay 🙂 Perfect. Thanks very much for clearing that up!
so you might have a desynth quite a few before you get one
is ixion mount able to fly?
what do i press to fly?
two requirements
space bar, but you need to collect all aether currents in that zone to be able to fly. There are 5 quest related currents, and 10 open world currents
a: must be in a zone that supports it
b: must have collected all currents and quest which grant a current
im at norvrandt
does anyone know the website that allows you to enter your gathering stats and then makes a rotation for you based off of it
doesn't really exist, gathering rotation is rather braindead anyways
no i have not done b @slate arrow
friend said it existed
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
friend was probably mistaken cause this is the first time I'm hearing about this
@lilac mulch then you can't fly until you've done so
why is tank armor so ugly (im low level but still)
How does PLD compare to DRK in terms of gameplay?
Are they going to add new housing wards in 5.3?
they've made no announcement of such so unlikely @leaden ginkgo
Hey yall, do your stats rise up with levels or is it arbitrary and just for skill unlocking?
I’m pretty sure the stats rise up a little bit
do u rlly have to get to like level 50 just to find decent looking armor/clothes
Can you buy a house in another server?
My server has probably 0 open houses
Tbf elliott most low level sets in mmo’s look like trash
like I'm on Faerie, can we get one on something else?
There’s a few decent things along the way but yeah @leaden ginkgo
You also tend to mix and match shit too so it comes out not looking right
What is the exp bonus of having an alternate job at max lvl?
dang
do you know how long it'd take me to get from my current level(23 to 50)
Yes what is the % lf the bonus?
Just under your highest level job
@leaden ginkgo no
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
I went from 1 to 50 in a week but it depends on how hard you play
^
oh jeez
@twilit arch :'(((((
how many hours do u play
Ohoho
im willing to up mine
@spark yew mostly just skills, 90% of your stats is determined by gear once you get past 50
Wud it be dumb to boost an alternate job so that my main job got a exp bonus?
For example imma pld and am considering boosting a healer job
No point
msq?
Main story quest
do you get poetics when unsynced?
only first time bonus
damn
Fun fact, The Slog™️ took me as long as ARR
Can someone show me the cmd for looking at skills via kupo bot
Its "!action Skill name"
In #kupo-bot-spam !action <name>
Thanks kindly friends
do note that stuff like Aero 2 does work, you use ii
is there a chatcommand to toggle the Action help? (the mouseover text when you hover over skills and so on)
For traits just swap the action with trait
sometimes
found it myself. ty
/hud ahelp on
/hud ahelp toogle if you want to switch between on and off
Oh yeah theres way more to the patch then the first arc
Is every post expac arc the same?
Like, having 100 quests
No
no, ARR is definitely the exception to that
Im glad to hear that
You can see here:
||https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Main_Scenario_Quests||
Spoiler for MSQ storyline.
Didnt wanna spoil from quest names
HW is 44, SB is 40
while there's less quests, they generally are "meatier" in content
Awesome
Sounds unnecessary
Ive gotten scholar to like 45 or so and never felt like eos wasnt working well

is it normal that my healer gets shorter queues than my tank? I thought tank was faster
that I do know 😄
Healer is fun.
tank is more fun for me personally, but I find myself queuing way less with a healer
I want to play healer and tank at the same time 😆
then you need a paladin lol
True
I mean I have a healer and a tank levelled so I check both wait time but since I've got my healer to 80 I get almost insta queue which I'm quiet surprised
It’s funny when the queue says tank in need and you get an instant queue as a healer. 😉
ikr!

what is the best food for WAR tank ?
Sausages
Does the secondary effect of an attack get nullified if the attack does 0 damage due to overshields?
Depending in the attack, yes
Some attacks like knockbacks are nullified if the damage is 0
Precisely my question. Good to know
Shields caused a lot of wipes back in stormblood iirc lol
Sausages
@faint flare ty
how hard are the omega savages unsynced
Still need to respect mechanics but they die pretty quick
and the SB EXs?
More or less the same i believe
so i need to pacify pyrites in the you can not kill metal quest but i cant give the things ore
Usually when you need to pacify/capture mobs, you need to get their Hp down to either 25% or 50%
Before the item has effect
so i need to get them to 50% hp and then like go into my invintopry and give them ore?
Soothe them before you use the item
for some reason i dont have any key items in my invintroy
click the tab on the top right of your inventory
OH
thats where key items should be
I HAVE TO USE THE EMOTE
Hey, confused, please help me out with this, White Mage > Aero becomes automatically to Dia?
ye
Yes
They're the same thing
ok
Same with stone into glare
so if i equip it later and go to a low dungeon it is going to change to aero automatically?
psss, that's even easier!
I already like how whm is a bit simple than ast
not giving dirt to ast tho
how else am I supposed to do my yu gi oh roleplay with a dragoon
GOT IT
Okay, last thing and I'll yeet out of your hair, guys, anyone knows/remembers which skills specifically changing automatically for WHM? I have a page with skills, I have the in game menu skills all in front of me, reading descriptions like a junkie, still no idea yet which is replacing automatically what. Well, except stone and aero to their II/III versions and to Dia and Glare.
Does Cure III replaces Cure?
No
Because Cure II is different
Only stone and aero change
Hmm
Cure 1, 2 and 3 are all different
Alright, then.
Cure 1 is useless (unless you get into a dungeon before Haukke)
Cure 2 is the preferred GCD heal
Cure 3 is for strong AoE healing
Perfect, now, thanks to you I know how to order all the skills that I need, 2 more spaces empty now and ready to go.
Oh, so ONLY for serious need, got it.
cure 2 is only preferred IF you do not have lilies
Yeah I am keeping Cure I in case I enter in to a baby dung.
yeah that too
I don't have those yet, I am like 31 WHM, just made it today.
ah ok
Freshly baked. lol
just remember to do some dps too
I know, I know...I am gonna have it rough.,
I already am doing it, keeping aero and stone up all the time on enemies, but mostly aero for dot and then healing my tank. I've practiced with my chocobo and on some random players.
good stuff
you're already on your way to being an actually decent healer
I am still afraid I am gonna let down so many people though...
Healing is a bit harder in this game than others I played so I am concerned.
healer anxiety is very understandable, but you'll get used to it eventually
You'll be fine, comfort levels increase with practic and acquisition of new tools
If everyone passes on something like the Ramuh mount from e8s, anyone can go to the chest and just get it right?
I think the most powerful thing above all is to always know where the skills are in a blind system and to be calm like a real doctor. lol
It goes on the floor
so no one can get it?
Everyone passes*
if everyone passes on the mount, it goes poof
Nope
Okay, thank you so much, everyone, with that I am out of your hair!
whACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
yeah eventually you just get the muscle memory for healing
meaning you can pay more attention to healing and dps
ok ty
@leaden ginkgo if you got more questions just ask in #healer-lounge, which you can access by getting the healer role from #612757637813239808
you get over healer anxiety pretty quick once you know what you're doing
what I did to get used to it was run full party duties so you have another healer with you
actually yea, whm is really quiet easy
when you get good gear + know your skills it's easy to keep the tank alive even when doing big pulls
guys, does gear matter for a miner?
I just started levelling and not sure if I should worry about it
at low levels, its not that important
is gearing up similar? poetics etc? or it's a different system?
but at higher levels, yes you'll need decent gear as you need certain amounts of gathering to actually gather anything
mostly crafted items with scrips being an option at 60/70/80
you can buy NQ versions of most crafted gear from vendors

okay thanks
Is the Valentione Rose set around on mogstation?
seasonal event rewards are always add the year after, shortly before the event happens
do higher level notorious monsters give more poetics?
not entirely sure what you are referring to here but if you are talking about harder trials/dungeons - it displays how many you will get. If you are referring to A/S ranks etc. It gives 30ish iirc per kill but requires a large party to kill
I'm talking about eureka
okay nevermind then
They give a bit more, IIRC, but it's nothing astronomical
and where do I buy those eureka exp potions?
Not sure any exp potions exist, only the HP ones
Is it possible to pay for subscription through psn money?
hi everyone,
i'm fairly new to ffxiv and have never really properly played it. i am lonely and bored during quarantine and wondering if anyone with patience would want to play with me even though i am pretty much a noob. i have not played in a long time but this is my character : https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/16462141/
thanks ^^
try #recruitment-light or #retired-eu-datacentres
thank you @little swift i'll repost there
Shazibear, I would recommend to go with your recommended server and level quickly, once you get to 50 (can be done in 2 days)
you'll easily find a FC which is where you will be able to hang out with other peeps on ongoing basis doing things together
you can get to level 50 in two days?
Oh yeah. But that requires you to know what you are doing, ofc.
well maybe a bit more but it's doable if you play from morning to night
though watching all the cutscenes + msq won't be enough time
thank you @next wind 🙂
but still I got to 60 in my first week doing msq
I've been playing for like three days now and I'm at 34
is there a list of all dailies that can be done? (no matter for what)
or maybe closer to 2 weeks now that I think about it, post ARR took me 4 days to do
Fishing retainers are pretty mediocre in terms of hunting ventures
They only get a specific selection of fish and most of them Are just vendor trash.
but all in all, you could get to max lvl in 6-7 days check this guide @tough halo https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/bd7hd5/the_guide_to_leveling_your_alt_jobs_1_to_70_in/
@strong sphinx beast tribe dailies and one for a stage of the anima relic and zodiac relic
Thank you @next wind
this'll come in handy when i actually figure out 14 properly
best fish to farm for seaborne aethersand?
Do your 240 rings have dexterity?
That is your issue
Thats why
They are both crap for Ninja
Those aren't ninja rings
You are literally carrying rings that do nothing for you
why are you using monk/sam and tank rings?
The low level ring is better
Slaying is for Dragoon, Samurai, and Monk
Cause it has dex
Fending is for Tanks
Does anyone know where to get grade 1 carbonized matter?
Gather it Marvel
(you could have got Shire rings at i260, but you do you)
well that ring is your best one
How about get a proper ring?
currently
Can anyone answer the carbonized question?
I did
It is a few message up
@willow mango the quest should’ve told you where to gather it
Oh, I saw the answer
are you capped on poetics?
Buy it off market board then, if you can't mine it
It can be gathered as miner or botanist
thats enough for a ring
They are saving it for scaeven
You get poetics out of your ass, I can't imagine you really need to save
Besides MSQ gives you what you need
Right now he is just gimping himself
you don't need to?
you don't grind trials for poetics but ok
it's not efficient
if that's what you wanna do
aetherochemical research facility gives 150
but it's a gamble if you get a new player or not
assuming you get a new player every time
well if you legit get a new player 9/10 times and it takes 3min to clear then in 1h you should get 2k poetics, so should be ez no?
If I already have all emotes and minions from GC seals, what is the best thing to do with them?
I've just been buying food..
@signal rover cordials or anything else that sells
I personally buy a ton of ventures and do quick ventures / hunting with my retainers
sometimes you get 400k dye
sometimes 100k furniture
if youre not doing the relic weapon then you dont need it
Yeah I really do need to level up my retainers...
it takes a bit of time and effort to level retainers
Thanks all 🙂
50+ you get bigger item pool, keep your old gear for them
some hunting mats sell really well too, check mb which ones
I was making a bank with 30lv retainers
as some items were selling for 1k each
I personally bought 2 extra retainers (just 2£ extra to subscription), had them go hunting on hourly with mats which sell for 1k each, I was making 20k per hour
pretty nice considering you spend 4 ventures on it
the key is to remember to send them 😄
if you click ctrl+u to check on timers
if you can send 4-5 times per day you get more exp than 18h ones
I personally set up limsa as my free home location and teleport for free before I start queueing for a dungeon
if it's a msq dungeon when you complete it, you get sent next to the npc, so free travel basically
and anyway teleporting costs nothing, so it's effort/loading screen annoyance
quick exploration is not worth it until at least level 50
that's why you set up a free teleport location in your GC city
so umm my game keeps randomly crashing without any errors any help
you should get the 2fa and get a free destination
it happens a lot in cutscenes
i just reinstalled the 3x
but also if you need only the retainers, bells are available in most places in SB areas
update some drivers? do a clean purge of all game files when you uninstall?
cause its only happening in shadowbringer
free location does not have a cooldown
setting the free destination to something like kugane will make your msq life easier
i just deleted the ex3 file and redl
its literally free to tp to
yes
your return point
cerb we're talking about something different
if you set up 2FA on your sqenix account you can set up a free location to teleport to

btw
if you're new and have 30 days sub still
be sure to do refer a friend with someone
you'll get 99 free teleports
what is the best places to put your aetherytes? I have:
Home: Kugane
Free: Limsa
favored: Cactus/Crystarium/wherever I am farming
pretty much like that
home whenever your msq is
free wherever your GC is
and favored where you currently questing in, I personally like to add Gridania and Ul'Dah tho
I do cactus so I can take the airship to coerthas/gridania/ul'dah
i dont actually know if it can go to coerthas, havent tried yet
I always end up being lazy and tele straight there
I mean if you take a frugal approach and sell everything you can, use retainers, do a bit of mining I should not worry about teleport costs too much
msq alone I think gives you 1-2mil to complete
ye, I am just trying to hopefully be able to buy a small house at some point
so gotta save money where I can
can you level grind in eureka by getting carried through high level fates
I mean I do retainers not stop, a bit of mining and I have 4 alts with neo-isgardian, bought mounts, glamours and still have 8mil currently (finished msq 2 weeks ago)
so it's not that hard to make gil 😄
Im at 1 mil, wasted a shit tonne of gil leveling some HW crafts
that was the same goal i had
once I can start grinding out glam, Ill be rolling in cash
and i uh. managed it
not such a great motivational speech now I consider if but y'know i'm a useless procrastinator so if i can
I know im going to miss the nest opening tho
so will have to wait for a plot to open somewhere I like
what do i do?
what could people do with it lol
idk
why cant i click next?
but you have your email in there and a confirmation code
if you copy/pasted it may want you to type it out?
i tried that but nope
try closing the launcher and reopening it, thats what IT always tells me
@remote lintel not really
it wants my security question and answer..... but i havent played this since 2013
so idk the info
it worked btw ^^
anyone know where the mail moogle is in Limsa Lominsa city?
near the aetherite, on the way towards the arcanist guild
🤦♀️
I think one is Near the calamity salvager south of the maelstrom base
i just want to play ffxiv lol not go through this whole thing
😔
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
why ;-;
it doesnt even crash
wthhhhh
I turned windows game mode off
how do u get loam brown dye if not the MB?
crafted
dyes are their own category of the crafting log and all classes can make the craftable ones at level 30
ah
how to level in eureka fast
complete your challenge log and join the NM train whenever they happen
How do you changr thr tageting
The fucking targeting makes it 2x harder to aggro
When you cant pick up the new tsrget
If you can stay with the group you can usually live. The mobs aren't super perceptive so as long as you stay out of their front for the most part they won't see you.
I see
and make sure to walk by most plant-based monsters.
Was talking to cerberus
Oh nvm
There should be targeting settings in Control > Target. You can also change your target filters to only target specific stuff when you have your weapon you.
What is thr control tab under
character configuration
character config
Ah ok
are there class quests after 70? just hit 75 and havnt found any
Your role quests are the replacement
ahhh okay
I had some Forlorn(?) Maiden appear in my FATE, and then afterwards I got "Twist of Fate" buff. What's up here? What is all this
Although there's only 4 sets
theres a level 80 quest you can get from your job trainer but its just story stuff
nothing much
And you only need to do them once per set
fair enough, thanks, thought i was going crazy
Nope you're fine just make sure you do at least one set for story if you're going through it
yeah, i did up to 74 when i unlocked them
so cant do any more till i level up some more
Wtf why does my targeting keep shifting back to my partners
Thats anoyying when im trying to aim the foe
You have soft targetting on
So i have to keep hard targetting on?
If you dont want your targetting to keep going back to your original target without confirming select
You can confirm your new target with X on controller
Does taking auto targeting off help?
if that's the one that makes you target stuff when you get hit, yeah i have that off
Yea thst
I be like lemme tomohawk this guy and bring him in
Game:lol your companion looks sexy
What
Thats why i dont like soft targetting
@dense pier they have a chance to appear in 70+ FATEs, killing them gives you Twist of Fate when you complete the FATE, Twist of Fate just gives you an exp bonus on the next FATE you complete and then disappears.
Omggg my first raid :D
um im in free company speak and trying to get back to general it already says general but im still in free company chat
General is the tab not the chat
sine i keep saying "username now trainne"
Type /s (for say) and press enter.
Or click on the button in the bottom left to open a list of chat modes to choose from.
so now i wont see "joins free company" stuff now
You have to change your chat filters for that
How do you change to a more populated server
Wait so I asked in here and someone said it wasn’t possible to buy subscription through psn and then I did research and on kotaku it says it is possible to pay through psn. Is it possible to pay through psn?
@rare karma i play on ps4 but i dont see anything
Theres no sub purchase on the psn store itself but you can get onto mogstation to buy sub via the ff14 launcher
Rip
Ok yeah thought so cause that’s how it was last time I played I wasn’t sure if they got rid of that since sony wants money lol
@quiet magnet Click the gear on your chat box and select the filter settings for general, then go to announcements and unselect Free Company Announcements
@tulip plover if you just want to visit another world on your datacenter interact with the big aetheryte in Gridania/Limsa/Ul'Dah and choose world visit
if you want to change your home server, you'll need to pay $18 on the mogstation
That pulls from every world on the datacenter
duty-finder is datacenter wide so you'll just have to wait.
and if you're a DPS then waiting is to be expected.

i think it worked Tessiachan thanks

why does my map look like this ._.
Did you turn off map icons?
Hey guys, is it possible to get different DPS sets from the Smith with different classes? I remember getting my level 15 set as an Arcanist, and now I'm running as a rogue
you get different sets depending on the role you run it as.
There's Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Caster DPS
Ohh. So I can still get a set as a Rogue? 😄
yes
All right, thanks 🙂
@raven sage where can I turn them on?
Ignore the picture
Only you can see your commendations, so it's basically people saying "You did good enough for me to notice"
Booooo
What’s the average time to pop 50/60/70 roulettes for a tank? And queue times in general? a friend of mine wants to join in and main tanking jobs
tanks usually get an instant queue for 50/60/70
Ok good
if not then only a few minutes or so.
Are they faster than healers?
it varies
okay, thank you
tanks generally have the worst queue for alliance raids since they only need 3 tanks out of a total of 24 people, for example
healer is way faster than tank in my experience
i get an instant queue as a healer like 90% of the time
What does the "Magicked Prism (Job Mastery)" item from the itinerant moogle actually give you? Description is vague for me
a cosmetic effect
Magicked Prisms are always just fireworks
once
one per prism
They're consumables
Stackable up to 999
Is "tell" talking to one person?
And "say" is taking to everyone in the world?
Tell is to one person
"say" is talking to everyone near you
tell is a dm and say is general speaking basically
Hmm. Thanks
Is sashtasha worth farming
farming for what
Gear
what's the leveling guide command again?
sometimes dungeon gear is better than yours
Msq gives you just enough gear
But it doesn't give everything
!faq altlvlguide
So you can supplement gear from story with dungeon gear to help fill out slots
Thank you!
Then what dungeons are worth farming
Should I join carpenters guild if I want to craft a samurai katana?
Yessss
Dungeons close to your level
You farm dungeons for xp primarily
And gear is for alt jobs and to supplement gear from story
Cause story gives you just enough but not everything
@oblique yew katana are usually blacksmith-crafted.
when you're max level
^
Then what do extreme dungeons give you
Weapons and mounts
there are no EX dungeons
Also ^
I think you mean trials
I think?
older EX trials are for mounts and glams
"Hard" mode dungeons are basically just places you're revisiting that are new dungeons
current EX trials are for weapons
At each old level cap like 50 you can majorly boost ilvl by doing side content to get a special currency to buy strong gear for a big boost
So there are no dungeons where you absolutely need some of the best gear ro beat?
Dungeons never give you best gear
^
:0
Dungeons give you entry level stuff
Wait arent raids and dungeons the same thing
no?
Basically it goes dungeons > uncapped tomes > normal mode and crafted gear > capped tomes and 24man gear > Upgraded tome gear and savage
normal raids are just a boss fight and have full party
Oh my bad i did a raid
Dungeons are 4mans raids are 8mans
most dungeons are light party
Theres also 24man raids which are casual content
Then whats the hardcore content
Savage
savage
And ultimates
Is there a way for me to turn down spell fx of others when im in an alliance raid?
@dense pier character config
So thats where you need really good gear ro beat?
when im in an alliance raid?
You get gear for savage via nornal mode raids and craftes gear
And the capped tomestones
Basically it goes dungeons > uncapped tomes > normal mode and crafted gear > capped tomes and 24man gear > Upgraded tome gear and savage
For gear
So "others" means when I'm in alliance raid then?
party means when im in party
not "party members"?
"others" means literally everyone else
then turn off party
i would suggest putting party to limited
Okay so the answer to my previous question was "no"
so you can still see ground aoe healing
you can't make it turn off specifically for alliance
I like having it as full for party, but yeah it's a nuisance for alliance
way too much stuff
party means party members
Your party is your alliance
tbh, i would turn "Others" to none
it will turn off the other alliance party's spell effects
what vinyl said
Alliances are a 8man party
so you'll still atleast see your own party's spell effects, but it won't be as bad
And theres 3 of them
I am not talking about turning it off by group. I am talking about turning it off by type of group
I want it on for Light party, full party, but NOT alliance raids
again that is not possible
but Kael already answered my question
Yeah
Thank you
The best I could probably do is use a /bfx macro
toggle stuff on/off when I enter I guess
i keep "others" off half the time cause you won't even see other people doing effects
outside of dungeons
i mean, like i said if you turn off others its essentially no different than if you were just doing a normal light/full party
^
because you'll still see your own party's effects, but not the other alliance's
Ok. So, I'm lvl 54 and have never touched and bothered with crafting what so ever.
Now I want to craft katanas. Where do I start from? Can I get it done from someone? Should I join a guild?
you could ask someone else to craft the katana for you, most will probably be willing to do it for cheap/free if you provide mats though you'll want to talk to them about price
but if you personally want to craft them, you will need to level blacksmith as most of them are made by blacksmith. The guild is in Limsa Lominsa, the upperdecks
do shb hunt trains give poetics?
yes
full run should be like 360 poetics
if you can catch all 6 it'd be 600
ok. thanks.
hey guys why doesn't this work?
/isearch "Red Dye"
no matches found
oh hmm, it seems I actually put the red dyes up on the market haha
I downloaded the comapion app and logged in, how do I get the emote now?
You automatically get it
And its in your emote selection
Dont need to claim it or anything
I have a question about levelling retainers, specifically, gearing them through the level bands
what is the best way to do this post level 50, specifically, 50-60, 60-70, 70-80
assume they're just DoW/M retainers
augmented ironworks will last them til 56
Just give them hand me down gear. Retainers only care for ilvl so buy vendor gear if you really want
sadly not the case for shire/scaevan
but yeah like vinyl said, just give them old dungeon/crafted gear you get
or buy them vendor gear
Sorry for asking here again about healers, but this place looks MORE lively. And since I DON'T want to be THAT guy who goes undergeared as a healer to dungeons after 32 lvls, I need to ask...from my understanding, intelligence, mind and piety means a lot for healers, correct? Should I aim to get accessories with piety, mind and intelligence or nah? My current accs are a mess from my physical classes and one exp ring that is only up to lvl 30, so no wonder sometimes I had some challenge on Hauken manor.
for ARR, just grab anything that has mind on it that's lvl appropriate
So, I should get stuff with mind and spell speed?
there's no getting away from Int for that gear
but 50+, gear will be more role locked
Hmm, they have other stats, too, but I will try to get anything with mind then.
and crit
As long as it has mind, take it
you can crit heal spells
secondary stats are not that important while leveling
I am sure dexterity, determination, etc are not doing good for healers, obviously.
Substats like spell speed, piety etc doesn't matter until cap
don't go out of your way for mind pieces with crit though
okay, so mind and crit
Determination does affect healing
oh..
It increases both damage and healing

So, mind, crit and or determination, got it.
But like i said, just focus on getting gear with mind
Alright!
Main stat like mind trumps everything
Substats like determination, crit etc doesn't matter until cap
^
Yeah, just got scared with that poison dungeon area, AV, I remember it was a bit tough for me as a tank the first time, I assume it is nightmare for healers, and I read somewhere around here earlier someone had huge troubles with an undergeared healer, didn't want to be that guy and wanted to ask.
Stat importance is weapon damage (increase both damage and healing by the.most) >>>> Main stat (mind for healers) >>>>>>> substats
av isn't too bad
Hmmm, should I go with small rods or big two handed rod?
small rod and shield
or big one
Whatever is.higher ilvl
big stick
ok
Ilvl is king
got it
One handed wands stop being a thing post.50
Thanks again, everyone, I appreciate it.
ARR was a weird time
Is there a page that lists Free company restaurant/cafe type events
I'm really really wishing that there's some sort of event somewhere, anywhere that involves like..a lot of fat cats
theres one in every world
hey i have a simple question: can you change classes once you level up?
As a blacksmith, all I have to is crafting right? No battles or anything?
You can be every class in the game
is the class i pick in the beginning an important step to rest of my characters gameplay ?
or does it not rly matter
No
only for the first few levels
You can freely change
thanks guys ❤️
some of the other classes are unlocked in the other 2 major cities
and you dont get access to them for a while
just keep that in mind
like ninja ?
ninja is early
Yes, and classes in the other cities
also another question, if i live in europe, can i play with players on american servers?
no
where you live isn't too important for that you can just make a character in an american server
okay, because i live in canada but most of my friends are in europe so would you reccommend to play on EU server
Your data centre determines who you play with
you can just choose to play on the eu server if you want
^
one account can have minimum 8 characters maximum 40
Your ping will be abit higher but thats workable
you can put them whereever
!faq datacentreip
Fuck
and in an emergencies can you possibly pay to change char server?
Yes
thank you, you guys are so helpful ^^
You can freely move data centres
im finishing my char now, what exactly is home world? does it matter
what does the star next to my top two mean ?
Its the server you can access.mail, retainers (bank) and free companies (guild) from
Theyre a preferred server
And you get a xp bonus
For joining it
A very strong bonus
That increases all xp by 100%
That lasts for 90days minimum
Longer if the server stays preferred
does this mean i should choose lich?
I still kick myself for not going preferred
absolutely
sure if you want
the game is much more enjoyable for me with double exp. less grinding
so you can always change the home worlds?
it costs money to change
With a transfer
but i can still play with someone in a different home world than me?
thank you so much <333
You play with anyone in the data centre
And you can world visit other worlds on your data centre to do overworld content
With peoples
Instant matching pulls from every server on the data base
So there isn't really a big deal what server you pick, the data centre is more important
yup
thank you guys very much
@leaden ginkgo
Be in mind it is now night in the EU DC's, so not much players are online at this hour.
Welcome to the Light DC!
||You are on the same DC as me then, i move quite often between servers myself from my homeworld Odin.||
@faint flare do u know which aether server is the most popular?
the preferred ones
🤷♂️
but all of them
I dont play aether
@leaden ginkgo most popular Aether servers are probably Cactuar or gilgamesh, the preferred ones are very busy too
thank you @rich bay 🙂
do you only get poetics from notorious monsters if you don't die?
You can die, but if you leave the zone you lose all credit
all the times I died I only got exp
When I was googling about crafting, it seems that it is commonly suggested to level all of them. However, if I only want to craft purely for the orchestration roles for myself, is there any reason for me to level more than just the alchemist?
Not really
As long as you are okay with spending gils to buy other materials you could have crafted yourself as other crafters
Okay, thanks
@tender estuary
Can you help Qripton#8280 above?
He/she has a low download speed.
Did anyone ever play gw2 and if yes, did you get yourself a legendary weapon there? I want to know how much you could compare that to grinding a relic weapon because i really love longterm projects lile these haha
@stable token
Level CRP too, you need CRP for the Blank rolls you need.
@wispy basalt other than trying some things, disable Windows firewall and defender and change dns it’s probably on your ISP
if you like extremely long grinds then do the relic weapons

@tender estuary ok i'll try
I think 6 or 7
is there a way to get hotbars 4+ to switch when you change classes?cause currently its keeping one class skills andnot the other
Can I visit different worlds of different data centers?
disable that hotbar as "shared"
thanks
Can I apply one glamour to n number of gears?
yes
glamour can be applied to as many gear as you want
@tender estuary it just went from 0.75 to 0.85
You might be getting limited by your ISP then
How do I do this? I am confused
did you meet the minimum collectibility
you need 50 collectibility minimum to turn in the ingot
@tender estuary thank you for your time = )
did you use any quality actions
collectibility is item quality/10
So you needed a quality of 500
!action hasty touch
!action basic touch
Should I touch glamour before i have best gears or it dont matter?
stormblood feels like ARR part two. too much fillers
