yeah, that's what I mentioned above
just for extra kenki
it's a bit easier to overlook in that way since it's not directly "additional potency", but the kenki adds up to quite a bit, making the positionals still quite important
ah thanks
What’s the color ranking in the parsing
iirc if you completely ignore positionals on samurai
your only source of kenki is the 2 combo hit
!action jinpu
!action Yukikaze
isn't that @ 62 tho?
If you are between lvl 52-62, probably
ye
I don't remember if Yukikaze has kenki between 52-62
I don't think so, but I can't be sure
What should be the melding priority stats for a machinist?
"General priority is: Crit > DH = Det > Sks. This can change depending on the base gear set and available stat choices we have.
"
^holds true for a lot of DPS barring certain exceptions
there's a lot of resources for DoH / DoL leveling on the balance
there's like a guide that has 1-80 leveling rotation
a guide for leve turn ins and how many you need to get from 1-50 etc.
and one for what your rotation should be for spamming ishgard restoration turn ins
I must be blind, but.. How do I activate collectible crafting mode?
I assume it's from the challenge log, but I can't find it
crafting log*
theres a skill called
in your skills list
if you havent unlocked it yet you need to
Ahh
There really isnt a guide per say to being an omnicrafter. Usually it's dependent on how much time vs how much gil you are willing to spend to get there.
If you have the gil, you might see people selling crafting kits in party finder.
Lemme try this. Idk if it's rank specific
!faq dncguide
Aaaand that was it
Dope. Thank you
Is that thing available for Mentors only or can anyone do it?
anyone can use the !faq commands
Thank you.
Preferably do them in #kupo-bot-spam. There's a "!faq" command to bring up all possible commands
Thank you Vinyl.
you can use them here if it will benefit/answer a question
Of course. But if i need to try them, ill take it to spam
So, can someone explain what proc-based means? I'm new to FFXIV and have only really played BLM and SMN.
oooo
Procs means a skill actives an additional effect like getting accesd to a different skill
Or augmenting another skill
procs are when skills will get enhanced/available when criteria is met?
For black mage, your main procs are Thundercloud and Firestarter
Okay, so with DNC, that would be Standard Step and Tech Step, correct?
no
^
^
Feathers as well
reverse cascade, rising windmill, fountainfall etc
dancer's weaponskills can "proc" additional skills
those are the procs
yup
!action Cascade
if you notice the "Additional Effect" line
Additional Effect: 50% chance of granting Flourishing Cascade
Okay. Sorry for the dumb questions. I'm coming from ESO so a lot of the terms are newer to me.
its like how red mage can "proc" verfire and verstone with verthunder and veraero respectively
you can reword that to basically mean "50% chance of procing Flourishing Cascade"
because you are making it available
I gotcha now. Thank you for the help. 🙂
and don't worry about dumb questions, we're here to help
Think I'll do some quests with Dancer before I jump into a dungeon or trial.
I've mainly played as a SMN, got to 66 last night. Been having tons of fun with it. I can definitely learn more though.
I tend to go for the Ifrit summon over anyone else, and I've recently learned that changing them often might be helpful on the situation
Yes, dont be lazy and swap your pet
can you change standing pose? im a male aura right now and im standing like a god damn pillar men
do /cpose
Garuda for trash (3+), ifirit for 2 and lower targets
When should I use Titan? Or should I even bother?
Cause he gives out a armour buff, correct?
oh cool it defaults to that when i stand
i just use titan outside of dungeons
Titan is a bit of a niche pet
If you need the survivability, or need burst aoe dmg, he's good for that
but outside of that, he's not used as much
Is placement for summons important? I typically just let them attack willy nilly, I usually try to have them focus in the heavier enemies instead of adds (if that's the correct term)
Its something yoy should keep in mind
You place pets next to bosses prior to pulling
Then use Sic to get them attacking immediately
To help reduce the chance they ghost egi assaults
And of course moving your pet so it hits the group with devotion
If its fucked off somewhere
Okay, I will keep that in mind. Might need to readjust my crossbar for pet command s
How long does this data centre/world XP buff last?
I just have place and Sic down. Heel can be put as.well
whats best way to farm poetics?
UNtil the server reachs a set number of players
Road to.70 lasts 90days minimum
Daily roulettes is the most consistent.
Awesome, thank you so much for the help. I definitely have a long way to go. So much to learn. Ahh, I love it.
It will come with time
So wont change until 5.3
torn betwween summoner or samurai, how hard is a summoners rotation?
I just got to 66 last night and I've found it pretty easy.
so its a long rotation, but an easy one?
Somewhat...you got a few things to juggle
SMN is a very powerful job if you can keep it going. Plus, you have a raise which can help.
so as a newer player, maybe I shouldnt go summoner?
You can
But if you lose you place in the rotation, it's hard to regain lost ground
I got yelled at for rezing a healer as smn. Is that typically a no no?
The game easiest you into. It
No
^
If a healer is dead definitely help
If the healer dies, you are the hero
so how are samurai's, than?
And great damage
Some DPS do. It just comes with trial and error
I started with SMN. Did BLM for a few levels, think somewhere around 30-40ish. Like it, but SMN is my ❤️
so summoner dps, since its split into dot's, pets and basic spells is low/mid personal dps?
You just cycle through your 3 combos, get youe stickers, throw your dot.up for 1 sticker then do weeb slash with 3 stickers
😂
shout your ability names out loud too
HISSATSU SPECIAL TECHNIQUE
I'm ~80 quests away from reaching Shadow bringers, 40 left on Stormblood then the in-between stuff.
Keep going. Shadowbringers is fantastic.
Kugane, is just absolutely gorgeous. Same with Azim Steppe
so how are summoners/sams for end game?
No one will complain about having either on a team
Oh! How (and when) should I start The Crystal Tower?
Before starting Shadowbringers
I know before shadow bringers, but is there a tie in after Stormblood?
When you have a chance. If you desire, im willing to help you through it
Just whenever prior to Shadowbringers
I have an alt on the server
so overall both are good choices, summoner may just take more work?
Word of warning though about doing the crystal tower dungeons
If you want to be optimal they both require abit with work
There are a lot of new people, and a lot of toxic people doing it. Ignore them. They are not worth your time.
Just enjoy the story and raid that is the Crystal tower 24 mans
Oh I've learned that with ESO, raids can bring the worst in people sometimes.
Crystal tower is face rolly anyway
people have been struggling with the last one though
Because they greed and be stupid
Tanks being too stubborn to turn off stance, instant dying from... uhh... that debuff when it hits 0, you die
I'll have to read more about it, then get back to you on that offer @latent bloom ,
Doom
Thank you. doom
Doom?
Oooooooo
is there any incentive for roullete duties after hitting 80? i know theres a nominal amount of gil/seals & those materials, but anything else?
In the last raid, you go to a platform and it will get rid of it.
Tomestones
but for stuff like the levelling roullette where i think its just exp & gil there's nothing else, yeah?
Leveling other jobs, materia incentives
Anywho, thank you for the helpful information. Definitely more excited to get further into the game. I'm out!
You get various tomes
At 80 most roulettes will give you tomes
Instead of xp
Cause you know, dont need xp at 80
There's also the mentor system if you're into that
aww man
i've been falling behind msq cus it takes me like 2 hours to get through everything xD
msq eats up so much time
its late night here
Oh ya, that will extend the time on it
why cant i use npcs
Have you done the dungeon already? If so, then you need to level the NPC manually. Otherwise, you need to go to the entrance and they will be there
Then ya, head to the entrance to the MSQ and they shall be there.
Speak with them and they will offer to join you and pull up the menu
is there a crafting beast tribe for 70-80?
mm okay
can i go to ishgard restoration or do i need to unlock it with MSQ first
any reason my game is downloading at .70mb/s while my gf can download it at 13mb/s on the same internet
Ishgard restoration required MSQ completion up to 3.3
Before the quest to unlock appears
oh
Ok I'm confused, I'm trying to buy a house and I'm keyboard warrior-ing the pancard. The house devaluates twice and then I take a break, when I come back the house is back at 3mil and the devaluation timer is 16 hours (until the reset I assume). How can this happen ?
Sometimes I see LB get charged super fast and sometimes it’s too slow, what are the factors that affect it?
Dealing crits to the enemy, healing people who are very lower or using shields to prevent lethal damage
Generates extra lb
And in terms of DPS roles?
gotta hurry up need to get to lvl70 all the stuff i want cuz buff is gone in 2 weeks
Doing crits
Is how you help
Thank you
Having duplicate jobs also slows the generation of lb

is guildwork safe to use ?
is there a way to move your head around and other people seeing that without targetting people?
Yeah, but I've seen some people move their head while standing still, not targetting anyone
Not sure if it just didn't show who they were targetting or something
half hour in queue now
Sometimes I see LB get charged super fast and sometimes it’s too slow, what are the factors that affect it?
@mossy tartan prob damage and healing
also superfast LB is due to special mobs
assuming you're not seeing the effect of duplicate classes
for example the adds in a12 both versions give a stupid amount of LB due to the tank LB requirement
is there a LFG anywhere?
How long for Mogstation items to show up in mail usually?
single character items are usually super quick, account bound items can take a bit longer. You can use the "Request delivery" option to try and get the system to hurry up but namely just need to be patient
floor 101-200
it means you have to start over
How often should I be standard stepping as DNC? Just to refresh buff?
Or off CD for the damage
Ah. Its a dps gain to use off CD cool
ye typically
Wasn't sure just unlocked it
all buffs from all classes
its always a damage buff to use it on CD
buffs usually account for like 2-10% of your total damage at most
Hello People, I am playing the steam version trial, if I reach lvl 35 my game get locked, or I just will be unable to level any further, and if so, could I change jobs and try another one in other to try it?
cool
At least I can get a lil overview about which class I might like more, btw playing in a prefered server in order to get faster xp
Well, what I mean is going through the motions every 30 seconds instead of 1 minute to refresh so you can double finisher twice during a 1 min window
@little walrus you can get the achievements for reaching floor milestones, but the solo one iirc needs to be done without deaths from start to finish
Another lil question, I am having trouble making the game run DX11, only playable on DX9, its a common problem? tried to look out at google but no luck about it
all the preferred servers in crystal are congested, how much of a difference does the exp bonus make and how long will I have to wait for them to become uncongested?
Preferred servers are not congested. Those are mutually exclusive server statuses.
Congested isn't the right term but basically it's when less people are logged on at once
So just later in the day
!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.
I'd absolutely wait
“Congested” is its own server status applied manually by SE to overpopulated servers. No servers currently have the congested status.
so what time should I start trying to join?
"later"
I know its prime time for the west coast rn
Like every hour or so maybe
Or just late into the night
okay
But yeah what Sloppe said
got it
Oh no I’m going to actually become known as that
Frankly if I was you I'd just spend this time going over character creation stuff and trying out emotes and whatnot because I'm sad
Are there any guides for synthesizing specific items? I bought materials for 200k and if I mess this up, I would be.. upset. lol
so I tryed this game out like a year ago, and I got to level 30
A) get good
B) there are crafting simulators/calculators online but shame on you for using them Orion
my plan atm is just to load my charachter data onto a new toon and start at level 1
because Ive forgotten a lot
Got it lol
https://ffxivteamcraft.com/search I think this one is most popular
But tbh I never learned how to use it
there's the pins in #doh-dol-lounge lounge for leveling rotations now too
Is there a good way to farm a specific item in the diadem
Certain mobs drop certain loot tables otherwise nah?
Hey, I think I messed something up but I am playing on PC and suddenly I can't type properly, like some letters work but even if I hit enter and try to type in chat, pressing 'y' under any context switches my chat mode to Yell as an example 😣
!faq diademmap
at what point do I have to start looking up boss mechanics ahead of time?
Really just extreme/savage fights
because I remember being able to play them mostly by ear for early arr
You'll likely fuck up in other fights but it's not a big deal and you should just immediately know what went wrong and what you should do next time
got it
No one expects someone to have to look up mechanics for any of those dungeons/trials/raids
also tank limit breaks are still trash right?
in leveling, yeah
They are mandatory for some fights but generally yeah very very very niche
Yes, limit breaks are for dps except in some specific fights which require tank LB3 use as a mechanic.
Or for healers to res everyone in casual ex primal farms that go bad
/general content where shit hits the fan
Sorry, i have a question about the level 35 trial, does it have a time limit of how long it can be played? o ^o
also also the job video in pins was made pre-shadowbringers and I remember hearing dark knight and gunbreaker got hella rebalanced, so how do the tanks break down?
in like the broadest terms possible
Uhhh
Free trial
oh, that
There is no time limit on it
no
Just restrictions on what you can do.
You don't spam dark arts anymore in Dark Knight. MP spells got reworked, your damage buff is now from these two attacks that cost MP but it's really easy to keep up
no time limit, just a content limit
Gotcha, thank you~!
Gunbreaker...I'm not sure how describe it really
You get cartridges you spend on special skills and you have a lot of combos?
Has a nice regen and shields?
I remember it being
paladin- physical defence, hardest tanks
marader- hp, can do more damage
and then the other 2 are super fuzzy
!faq meta
Hardest tanks?
like I just want that level of depth
There's no more physical magical difference
It has a dps-esque rotation where about once a minute you get a special 6-button combo of gcds and ogcds which serve as burst window
except for DRK which has the only magical reduction skill for tankbusters
hard as in the most quintesential tank
I mean...it's what you most expect sure
Actual functional balance between tanks is very close to equal.
Gnb is, marginally, the squishiest but also the highest dps
(by like, 300 DPS)
is that a lot?
No
lol no
Marginal.
That wouldn't even show up on a bar
Average DPS of tanks currently is like 8000
closer to 9000 probs
if you're in BiS (i500) gear, possibly 10k
Yeah 10k pretty fair for 500
so I think im just gonna level gladiator for now and look into which tank is coolest once I hit heavensward
is there no way to use a hat with glasses?
Yeah the game in its current state is about picking your preferred playstyle rather than what’s meta.
No, sad times Zydico
😢
@jade quartz it always was
There are some head items that are a combined hat + glasses, but can’t do it with two items.
Ehhhh
Alright, since SB
Yeah.
also I remember hearing it was a good idea to level multiple roles, was that just advice to keep the dps mains from going mad in solo que or should I actually pick up black mage at some point
but I also have to level multiple jobs
Hence you do you
Play as many or as few different jobs as you like
you don't have to
I don’t like grinding NIN compared to Paladin and MCH. The ninjitsu (paper fortune teller) feels slow and like I’m losing dps. What level does it get better, currently 55
you can
@finite ferry are you sure that's not your latency
an 800 potency raiton is a shitload of dps
If you don't like mudras it doesn't get much better out of tenchijin
will having multiple tanks leveled make that much of a difference in flexibility or are you guys talking about different roles/dps types
like it's pretty normal to see NIN on top of DPS charts up until 70
@fresh dagger not really
again
!faq meta
mostly roles
leveling all your tanks just lets you play what you want when you want
now for roles play whatever you find fun
they're all pretty much teh same
so from a team comp perspective all tanks and healers are p much the same?
the only one I recommend leveling is healer since the highest you can start as one is at level 30 after getting to Heavensward
You get a cute mount for getting all jobs to 80. Now that’s an incentive.
yes
Duplicate jobs are to be avoided
For high end content people will typically not run duplicate jobs but that is it
as long as you're not doubling up on a job everything is viable, and even that double jobs sometimes work
^
I just like the level 60 glam for NIN
For that reason you may want multiple options for joining parties.
but even then, I can totally function as a solo paladin main
is there any benefit to exp after you hit cap?
no
what’s the goal of the hidden gorge pvp mode
There’s the Legacy Warrior gear on the Mogstation which is based on the FF1 Fighter’s sprite
your EXP technically turns into endgame rewards of Phantasmagoria and allegory if you're at 80, or Poetics if you're locked to 50
It was given out free with a past anniversary event.
@leaden ginkgo rival wings: destroy your opponents crystal
ok
It’s a MOBA-inspired mode
in other words, is there any reason for me to not do daily roulettes with other classes I wanna level?
It’s a bit daunting for new players, follow callouts in your alliance chat
@fresh dagger nope
thanks
Note each daily roulette only gives rewards once per day per character though
Not per job.
@white sinew I don’t know if the other ARR relic sets are also FF1 references but WHM and BLM are pretty close
Might be in seasonal, the shop is split a bit weird
I think it’s under Seasonal (unisex)
Yep
Yes
You can get the fighter hair too
Wizard’s set/sorcerer’s set and healer’s set/cleric’s set
They look like your classic BLM and WHM getup
I gave you them
Read up
Yes
yes
Two versions of each
The i50 ones from the 45 and 50 quest, and the i90 ones you get from the 50 quest as a coffer
so when comparing tanks are dps and emnity the same thing or are some better at one than the others?
!faq meta
Enmity is a non-issue
so when comparing tanks are dps and emnity the same thing or are some better at one than the others?
@fresh dagger no tank is better at enmity
got it
Tanks are super well balanced compared to DPS/healers
Enmity is held by all tanks with no effort required, just need their tank stance turned on.
Only 2-4% difference in damage depending on the percentile you look at
Damage between tanks is an extremely marginal difference. Player skill is a far bigger variable
and coordination
so tanking is less about managing emnity than not dying/ being secondary dps
they did away with enimity management in ShB
If you’re really desperate to know, the dps stats at highest parsing levels are GNB > PLD > DRK/WAR roughly equal
Since back in stormblood and before enimity management was everyone but the tanks job
ShB is shadowbringers right?
But as mentioned it’s so tiny that you shouldn’t * make decisions based off it
yes
how do hunts work
i just unlocked them and i’m trying to level my sam
i see no exp rewards ::
You grab the bills from the board and search the over world for them
so at 50 i should only do ARR ones ?
Ehh, the ARR ones are pretty poor for experience
You can probably do the first set of HW bills in ishgard
thank you
How do I best utilize Party Finder. (My roomate and I are trying to do The Great Hunt)
I keep seeing a bunch of characters around that all have very standard gear on and their names seem to be someone just smashing the keyboard.
What are they? Bots?
yep
probably not the guy attuning but yes
They seem to get to decent levels, are they just allowed to roam? Is it for gold farming?
bots?
Yeah
they're not allowed

I see, what do they do? Run quests?
hello, free trial player here - what should I do after getting all jobs (DoL and DoH included) to 35? other than the tomestones
buy the game?
PFFF
fair enough
was just wondering if there's anything else I should do to get a headstart before I buy game
I always see them teleporting enmasse, 3 or 4 show up. Worst place I saw them was camp drybone. Different classes but all the same outfit.
Teleport in and out, they also just randomly appear
but you can always just come back to stuff whenever
ty!
@rare comet also you can buy a sub for 12.99 usd a month
I'll say this as someone who did the free trial and tried to get a bunch of jobs to 35 before paying, it's a great way to spend a ton of time in the least interesting parts of the game
They're unsure in NN, but is there a built-in mouseover function in config for this game or is it only through <mo> in macros?
There was 5 of them, and 2 instantly disappeared when I went to hit print screen
They've all gone, just... disappeared
and turtle, it was a nice way to find some new things too
there's plugin for mouse over skills
particularlly ocean fishing
but nothing ingame
plugin?!
well something that's tied to a launcher
i dunno what it is, but i know somebody who uses and swears by it
If you're enjoying yourself then that's great, but i personally burned out and benefited greatly from moving onto the newer content
👍
Mouseover is superior to clicking when it comes to healing and ranged abilities imo. I used to be a diehard clicker but unfortunately I learned the hard way in another game just how superior mouseover is
I think i see it?
but idk how to use it
i got a question about Eden Verse normal
i can only kill each boss once and roll ALL i want on that particular boss kill?
or do i get only one item from the loot coffer
You will only get 1 item from normal
one item per floor
i see
kill as many time as necessary to get that item
interesting
If you roll on everything, you'll automatically pass on stuff when you receive an item
Savage is different then?
Yes
trying to find a group with an RL for edens verse savage since i assume pugs are a bad idea, where am i supposed to find groups
are those generally good groups?
wheres the party finder channel
Party finder is in game
No
oh i found it
Party finder lets yoy make your own group and set roles and ilvl requirements
Do you guys think shadowbringers will be on sale steam summer sale
prob not
so is summoner still based around spending 2 minutes building up to bahamut and then wrecking shit or has it been reworked?
Its still 2 minutes (or shortened to a 110s cycles for rushing trances which is better on some fights) and you have 2 demis instead of 1
You have bahamut and phoenix as demis with 2 different trances that turn into each other as yoy go through them
!faq smncycle
cool
^^^that's should be the general rotation
but if you're doing savage
for this entire raid tier
all the fights you want to do 110 second cycle
because its better for aligning up with the boss downtime
the more kills i get in frontline the more xp?
No its static
imagine
it scales with level
Based on winning or losing and what your level is
Why is legitimate helpful advice met with harassment and insults in this game? That still confuses me
That's not really a question for #questions-and-help
I dunno if this is the right spot to ask this, but uh.
Ive been hearing a lot about "you cant judge the game through the trial version", as ive been trying to get a feel to see if i like the game. Would you agree?
You can judge it partly but the trial more or less caps you within the boring parts of the game
Ahhh..
Capped at 35, not many skills...still within the soft tutorial/world building introductions as you go around etc

Thank you for the help!
is there a discord or channel for people who wanna hardcore pvp
i hate losing front line and stuff with people who just attack
What's the best duty to farm poetics off of?
can i play the story alongside a new player by using new game+?
@shrewd nimbus Praetorium gives 100 per run iirc at a 40 minute run, otherwise level 50s? that's what I do
@leaden ginkgo people just do frontline for daily rewards there is better pvp elsewhere
@leaden ginkgo we have the pvpaissa discord
and the revival wings discord
in #archived-player-vs-player pins
so im selecting a home world or play on, whats the differences
home world only affects what FCs you can join and your housing availability. Dungeon/Instanced content is matchmade across your server
!faq datacenterip
List of IP Addresses for each Datacenter
Aether: 204.2.229.9
Primal: 204.2.229.10
Crystal: 204.2.229.11
Chaos: 195.82.50.9
Light: 195.82.50.10
Mana: 124.150.157.156
Gaia: 124.150.157.157
Elemental: 124.150.157.158
how do I ping the IP?
Windows: Open Command Prompt and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Mac: Open Terminal and type ping *insert IP Address here*
so it doesnt really matter, theres 2 full servers that say xp boosts for new characters but I cant join em
ping those and see what is most comfortable on your ping
and join a preferred world if you can
all the NA datacenters say my connection is excellent
preferred worlds will likely allow new character creation in the middle of the night
or super early in the morning
its double exp from all sources on all classes/jobs under level 70
its big
but not the end of the world if you don't have it
yeah you can report them for rmt activity or just leave them alone
square enix does a weekly purge of bots
gold selling
which is against TOS
so don't participate
Oh so how much longer do you think itll take for a xp boosted server to open up
usually its based on current player population online
so you're more like to get in in the middle of the night
or like early in the morning
Are there really that many people up in the US at midnight
so it probably wont be for another few hours

@ancient rain sure wherever’s convenient to you currently. It’s not really a huge deal.
||There will be reasons to return to that area later.|| it’s not something that beats any thinking about. Teleportation fees are a non-issue.
Change it to where you’re currently questing, or just leave it at a major city
Where can I unlock the twinning dungeon?
Should be a quest in the crystarium after you finish the base ShB msq
any Summoners here? <:3
for the upcoming Ishgardian Restoration ranking season, do you think they'll make a new title for the next ranking season? or will they stick to Saint/Beatus of the Firmament?
is there a limit on crystarium custom deliveries? i just maxed out my regular ones from the source
yes
Where can I check male lalafell’s white mage pose?
how frequently can i do crystarium deliveries
can you still unlock the diadem
Hey guys, can someone help answer a question regarding Edens Verse Savage attunement? I dont have the feature quest available to me despite completing the MSQ and Normal raid quest, is there any other particular requirement involved?
got a friend into the firmament but there were no quests for the diadem
@mossy tartan all poses are the same based on gender
@final sandal crystarium deliveries are class quests. No repeating
Crayola. Talk to all the NPCs at the firmament. One should have the teleport option
Hey all newer player here. So I finished this questline for this weapon I was told I need (Gae bolg zenith), but it feels like to me the magitek spear I got with poetics I have already equipped is better. I feel like I'm missing something
the questline weapons at level 50-60-70 are purely esthetic now
since you will easely replace them a couple levels later
you can use it in your glamour dresser to change another lance's apparence
yea, and if you liked leveling a crafting class, i suggest you have a look at the firmament ( or ishgard restoration ) once you get into the heavensward main city
cool thanks
@marble drift so if i wanted i could do all the crafting for the full quest series at once?
felt like i asked this long time ago, but forgot...
anyways... does your basic aero-dynamic techniques affects flight speed in this game?
Is Eden Gate savage completion required for Verse attunement?

No, previous savage tiers are not a requirement for unlocking the current tier.
felt like i asked this long time ago, but forgot...
anyways... does your basic aero-dynamic techniques affects flight speed in this game?
@inland scarab nope
will we be getting more raids in the eden series or is E8 the last part? I've noticed each expansion had 3 tiers and we're just on the second
ah k. thx.
The only prerequisite is the equivalent normal-mode versions of the raids.
We will get tier 3 in 5.4
Strange, I've been googling it all day and cant seem to figure out why I dont have the option
I have that done
:\
oh ok ty
We are currently in 5.2
@narrow fable The unlock is picked up in Mord Souq.
Yeah, he doesnt have the question
Note that the current savage tier isn't in the regular duty finder, but in the "High-level duties" tab under raids.
Im caught up on MSG and raid quests
you do need to clear normal version in succession since there's raid story with it
wasn't MSG something u use with cooking? 😂
can the armoury chest hold an unlimited amount of stuff?
more like only hold up stuff that SE registers
@limber hamlet no
The armoury chest is your equipment inventory, split by equip slot.
Like, if you open up your character window, and click on your helmet gear slot
it will open up the headgear tab of your armoury chest
and the slots shown there are the maximum headgear storage in the armoury chest.
Separate tab for each slot.
so they hold 35 slots each, so i gotta discard some stuff lol
or grind desynth with it
Gear that you're not using can also be stored in the regular inventory, chocobo saddlebag, retainers or glamour dresser.
Is there an internal FC recruitment tab ingame?
Nope, no ingame FC search
glamour dresser?
The glamour dresser is located in the inn room in each major city's tavern, and can be used for glamouring a whole outfit at once as well as just as storage for up to 400 pieces of gear.
!faq glamourdresser
"What is the Glamour Dresser?"
The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.
"How do I use it?"
In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".
When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.
yes, essentially another extra 400 spaces just for your armoury stuff that u can also configs as your glamour plates
also available inside GC squadron area
so i need glamour prisms
yes
Yeah but glamour prisms are a pittance on the marketboard
just to store em
but like, were is the glammour dresser? Is it an npc bank thing, or do I always have it?
inn room
ok, so need to go to an adventure guild
For example
One in the adventurers' guild/tavern of each major city
Speak to the innkeep and select "Retire to inn room"
again, there's also one in GC squadron room
ok cool, so just buy a chunk of glamour prisms off of the marketplace, than store my stuff?
(Requires completion of level 9 MSQ to use)
but u need to rank up your GC to access that i guess
Um yeah but I'm not sure why you've zeroed in on this option tbh
Are both your retainers, inventory and chocobo saddlebag full?
Like the glamour dresser is good but the other options are more immediate
i dont even think I grabbed retainers, and i havent pulled our my chocobo in ages
Oh boy
unlock your retainers
they're your item bank.
You get two retainers, each holds 175 items
i should look into it
i think 2.0 msq will point you to hire retainers anyways
It does but people still miss it
What's a recommended way of finding an FC to my fitting? I know this discord is an option but is there any alternatives to seeing what people are recruiting?
The chocobo saddlebag doesn't require summoning the chocobo to use btw
Just as long as you've unlocked summoning your chocobo with greens
saddlebag also can be used while cross-server as well
it's an extra tab of inventory you can just open any time.
wait, how?
there's also little pay subscription to hire extra 8+1 more retainers & double your saddlebag spaces
on the choco saddlebags
iirc sidequest
i unlocked the chocobo partner thing
Default hotkey ctrl+shift+i
Or under character menu -> chocobo saddlebag
I changed mine to shift+i or something
quest name "My Feisty Little Chocobo" for requirement accessing saddlebag. lvl 30 quest
then u shud already have it
yeah they got it now
hi
Heya
o/
@mossy tartan all poses are the same based on gender
@marble drift thank you
is there a scrip exchange in the crystarium
yeah, near the crystalline mean
@final sandal Yep, by the Crystalline Mean aethernet
ty!
can i transfer my trial character to steam version of the game if i buy it?
steam are treated as different port
so all this progress i made in the trial will be lost
that's nice then
how do i do it tho
is there an option once i buy the steam version and log in
do i link my steam to this account
<@&473626701947994134> we can go from standard trial into steam starter right? Apologies for the buzz, just needed someone to confirm this
If that's doable, you just buy the game on Steam, get the key in the steam library, register the key on your mogstation, and voila
what is the lvl 70 artifact armor set called?
that sounds doubtful. again as i said earlier, steam are treated as separate port
I'm trying to get the gear set for eureka to gear up
Are you gearing up with eureka for glamour or for stat?
glamour
there's 2 sets of eureka gears. the one from anemos are just AF version for glamour only. from pyros beyond are the only one upgradeable & useful especially for BA
what is BA?
OK, you should be able to get your lvl 70 artifact from the calamity salvager
Baldesion Arsenal
It is the last boss for Eureka content so to speak
Eureka end-game content
ah great thanks 🙂
It is optional though
You don't need to beat it for your glamour
Although beating it does give you a cool mount
ugh now I have to D:
but there is a modern aesthetic that drops from eureka
that's my primary goal here
Are there even enough people doing eureka to make BA doable still
how does that work?
lol BA has ban for revives, so if u died, u basically fail. there's only very few ways to revive in BA tho
at least on my DC, there's still occasional BA runs
You can buy the eureka hair from the market board
also, certain FF11 glamour drops/bought-able from Eureka as well
eureka hair?
The one that drops from Pyros
where is the npc that converts goetia into a valid currency?
whats the npcs namr?
@indigo orbit is pyros a boss?^^
forget it if u play as hrothgar or viera. lawl
no, zone
anemos > pagos > pyros > hydatos

in mor dhona? epic ty
i said i'll sleep after i finish this trial..
susano can wait. im gonna sleep now lmao
@deft quiver sorry that I cannot give you a concrete answer on trial going into steam, for now, just hold off buying and ask the question here again later when one of the mentor is around to answer it for you
Actually @obsidian patio is on...
It works
Hey!! Thanks Wynne
lol
- you just buy the game on Steam
- get the key in the steam library (right side of your FFXIV starter Edition page in your library)
- register the key on your mogstation, and voila```
And these are the correct steps right?
that's literally the 1st time I saw mobile icon notif popped XD
Looks right to me
Yay
speaking of which, what does those crescent moon small icon on lower right on avatar means?
discord-specific q btw
oh that means away
ah gotcha
how do u "away" in discord btw? both desktop & mobile version. app-switching?
or timer just like ff14 does?
So i messed up and thought i could pay for my subscription through psn (with psn store money) and i realized i couldnt but it still allows for me to buy the starter edition (i bought the complete edition) if i buy the starter edition will it further extend my subscription?
@inland scarab clicking your icon on desktop, on Android swipe left, click icon, status. Dunno about iOS
@rare karma no
oh? kinda bummer need to manually do that. thx tho. 🙂
hit 10 in botanist and went to the firmament but theres no quest to unlock the diadem, anyone know why
have u progressed though 3.0 msq yet?
either u need to progress main 3.0 msq or u haven't progress ishgard renov quest far enough
@main minnow there is no quest, you just talk to the mission guy and after a short dialogue you'll have permission to go to the diadem
do people actually queue for savage raids?
not really.
rip ive been wasting my time then
why gazelle able to fly? 😂

While attempting to nibble at a tree on a nearby isle, this dhalmel lost its footing and fell. As it plunged towards certain death, the fervent desire to live awakened its latent ability to harness the wind, and thus did it soar to safety. This may or may not have happened, but let's say it did.
Kupo of Fortune (Other)
At this point mounts can basically fly "because they believe hard enough"
Though on a more lore-technical reason it's because they can somehow manipulate wind aether
that's rly one of stupidest reason i read. 😂
If you want to know another silly flying mount, the Adamantoise from the gold saucer spins like a firework
Kame sennin reference
^ that. lol
there's already that old time reference. not to mention that old chinese tale which got incorporated into both ff11 & ff14 as well 😉
haven't found reference to flying giraffe tho... 🤣
on a sad note though, why my fave old geezer crabbie from 1.0 can't fly yet? I've been dreaming that mount since 1.0 actually... 😅
So I found xivanalysis the other day, but I'm not into any kind of endgame content yet. Is there a way to use it on striking dummies or something?
you can upload your ACT logs from striking dummies onto it iirc
hey if i cleared a e5s and there was no loot, does taht mean people have already cleared it for taht week? and can i do it again with people who havent cleared it that week to get the loot?
Has anyone here moved between Germany and the UK before? Which should I pick for payment information?
I'm assuming I can't change my address after I move country, right?
@frank wigeon since you cleared for the week, you can't get any loot from E5S until next week
I’m trying to decide between Ragnarok and Cerberus for servers. I read that Cerberus has a large Russian population, is that true ? Cause I don’t speak any Russian at all.
dang it cheers @obsidian patio
I haven't heard of any big unofficial Russian servers for the EU datacenters, though I don't personally play on them.
is crystal tower really easy
yes
ok haha, I just beat syrcus tower and I feel like I didn't even need to be there
Yeah
You can do zero DPS in Alli raids, nobody ever really notices as long as you don't die more than twice
haha
so, little silly I suppose, but I've suddenly found myself rather broke. what would be the best, and simplest way to make a little more gil faster, outside of crafting? I thought about doing dungeons, selling the items for seals, using the seals on tradeable items, and selling them on the market, but considering cordial went from 500g to 120g seemingly over a few days, that isn't really that worthwhile anymore.
@frank wigeon depends on the DC you play on - if you play on a JP Data Center, then that works. I think #jp-datacenters might be bes, recruitment seems to be for FCs I think
is the leveling roulette still worth doing past lvl 60?
cheers @next steppe
The daily rewards from roulettes scale to your level.
ah ok
Leveling, Alliance, Main Scenario, and to a certain extent Trial and PvP roulettes are all good for exp.
The exp reward is also adjusted based on the difference between your current level and the dungeon you actually get matchmade into.
So no matter what dungeon you get from the roulette, your total exp from the roulette is gonna be pretty much equalised.
even the super short ones like titan?
It will roughly match the time needed to clear the content
ah ok
Leveling roulette is never not worth it for exp.
Even if you got Titan, ifrit, Garuda normal with 4 players in leveling, yes, it is less exp than a proper leveling dungeon, but it gets done faster
So you are free to do other stuffs
sorry to ask but what about gaining gil outside of crafting at higher levels? I'd say dungeons might give you some, but I'm wondering if gil scales for roulettes, or if there's better means
Treasure maps
Hi, I unlocked the 3 lv 80 dungeons (patch 5.0)
If I want to farm il430+ gear
I should use roulette? I know it has only 1 time bonus per day, but I still get the dungeon rewards evevry time?
Then you can just queue the dungeons directly...
but if I do with roulette it will be same?
but it's not that much
it means gil?
Adventurer in Need bonus also doesn't include tomestones. It's only xp, gil, crystals/stellaclusters, and/or GC seals, depending on the roulette.
oh thanks
Kinda sucks to see no exp at all at lv 80
How do I revert the hotbar back into its original form? I accidentally split it
do right click on the hotbar number
That will prevent you from editing your hotbar
so not really recommended at the moment, as editing your hotbar will be necessary a lot as you level up and gain new skills.
well you can just click on it again
However, in character config -> hotbar settings, you can disable the hotbar numbers and hotbar switching arrows
which I would recommend.
Prevents annoying accidents from happening again.
That's really helpful actually
How can I turn off the "error' noise when trying to use a spell and it's on CD/GCD/Out of range/ect.
There's a setting somewhere, hang on...
Try entering the text command /actionerror off in the chat window
and then testing
Failing that, try manually accessing the option via Character Configuration > Log Settings > General > uncheck "Display Recast Timer Error Message".
This will stop the "not yet ready" notification
though I believe that error notifications for being out of range, or unable to use an action due to mana or other mechanical reasons, are not toggleable.
But you'll at least be able to spam your GCDs and oGCDs as they come off timer without that annoying notification.
Looks like that works
What is the best dps atm? I'm coming back after 4 years of not playing lol.
@brittle umbra the top is from the Mog Station, the rest are from the basic wedding ceremony which is technically free but requires another player to get bonded to.
The earring is a pre-order bonus that's no longer available
but I'm assuming that's not the part you cared about.
!faq meta
is there a way to change the alignment of hud related stuff?
like having target debuffs align from right > left
what do I do if I get i2501 when I try to sign up for the free trial?
Anyone know of squadron leveling guides? It's taking quite long so I'm trying to find some optimization of sorts
@leaden ginkgo if you click on that element, you should be able to change the settings for it in the HUD layout screen
I'm not 100% sure on target debuffs, but I think you can, as you can do it with your buffs, debuffs and other buffs
was in cutscenes so I couldn't check before, but I'm afraid maybe not, sadly

If a tank is doing multi pulls and not using cooldowns do you think you have the right to tell them to if your healing?
Yes
I literally used everything in my arsenal on SCH to keep him alive but just could not
a tank not using cooldowns is not performing at the basic level of competency.
Ended up after I sent my fairy away which you shouldn't even really NEED to do in a 61 dungeon when full augmented shire really, had to spam Physick
While the PLD before this guy I was DPSing the whole dungeon
You certainly can tell them to use their cooldowns. Just as they can choose to ignore you and continue being bad.
Granted PLD have clemency and don't really need mp at 60 ish
Oh i do.
how should i got about purchasing Crystaöl Sand for the Anima Relic?
When things get rough and I need a few more Lustrates and another Excog
I'll pop it
Well, I'm sorta half way there
GCD heals are for emergencies.
When tank has used up Excog, I've used my Lustrates if there is still a lot of damage that's when I pop diss
Which is kinda planned
Dps come into the equation lots of factors isn't there
Would people agree if you plan on playing a class, your better doing dungeons 60-70, I've road to 70 active and on SCH. just feel like I'll know the class better and it's not as mind numbing
If your dps HoH is the best wait times can be brutal
Dungeons are the best exp source after daily roulettes are complete, yes
with the only caveat being the queue time.
Hence, HoH for DPS.
I only use roulettes for my 70+
https://gyazo.com/fb33269cef855b849a05cd3311ff1905 Wait! I need 1 of each?! Is that even worth haha? those Unidentifieable things costs 15o poetics
But as you say HoH doesn't really reflect a real gameplay scenario very well
@strong sphinx if you have crafters and/or gatherers, blue scrip tokens are an easy method.
There's also the old amber-encased vilekin farm
havent crafted or fgathered so far :/
where you accept a HW battlecraft leve and repeatedly activate it and check for chest spawns, abandon it and activate it again.
Uses leve allowances of course.
^heard about that one too
so is it just me or is GNB just worse than PLD in mass pull?
because I had no trouble big pulling to wall on PLD but I'm playing GNB right now and even with Arm's Length, Nebula and Camouflage up, my HP still drops dangerously fast
Hi! I am new to the game (Level 21) and have one question: Why is the chat so empty? In other mmos I am used to a constant chatter but here nothing except for an occasionally guild-add or an emote comes through.....
@burnt spear not to the degree that it should be that noticeable. If your gear is the same level, and it's the same dungeon situation, then it sounds like your healer isn't performing well.
People don't chat in public in this game, @willow spruce
There are many alternative channels
Like FC (free Company, this is player guild) or linkshell
or Novice Network
Public channel is reserved for... I dunno asking for quick help or relaying rare FATEs/hunts
Ok. Thanks for the info. I was a little irritated that it was so quite 🙂
just need a quick confirmation, you cannot overmeld blue gear correct?
Yes
Correct
cool thanks
Check the gears
ah I see
Anything marked with Advanced Melding Forbidden cannot be overmeld
"Advanced Melding Forbidden"
Yup
cool makes sense, just wanted to make sure I was set on my BLU gear all the way. thanks

so i just finished SHB
i wanna go back and watch some of the credits
where can i do that ?
If anyone is from Cerberus EU could I get an opinion on the market board ? Is it healthy ? As in can you easily sell stuff on it, etc ?
Are you able to tell one macro to start another macro?
Ahh fair
Just have a long crafting macro that doesn't fit in one so thought I could try it over 2 macros and get the first to start the 2nd
Nah, gotta pay some slight attention. This why most crafting macros that go over multiple steps have a additional line to put a sound effect in echo so you know when its done
@grave glade Should be able to rewatch it at the inn, should have a book named "The unending journey"
Is there any way to increase drop rates from mobs? Trying to farm some skins and just wondering if there's a way to make it more efficient
Google seemed to say that wearing gathering gear might help?
But was like a 6 year old forum post
Get the last hit with Ninjas mug but thats kinda eeeeeeeeh
Yea, that's only gonna help for 1 mob every 2 mins or something which is a bit meh
Guess it'll just take a while then... 😛
Send retainers out to help get mob drops if they're levelled
Am surprised things like Tiger skins don't sell for even more now
