raw solstice
#

but they get added later on when you get the trait at 52 to unlock kenki

#

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

barren flax
#

ah thanks

midnight slate
#

What’s the color ranking in the parsing

buoyant scroll
#

is this the right place to ask for help?

#

with a trail

static yacht
#

iirc if you completely ignore positionals on samurai

#

your only source of kenki is the 2 combo hit

warped nest
#

!action jinpu

zinc orbitBOT

**Jinpu** : lvl 4 SAM (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 100.

!action Yukikaze

static yacht
#

isn't that @ 62 tho?

warped nest
#

If you are between lvl 52-62, probably

static yacht
#

ye

warped nest
#

I don't remember if Yukikaze has kenki between 52-62

#

I don't think so, but I can't be sure

vocal venture
#

What should be the melding priority stats for a machinist?

static yacht
#

"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

hoary storm
#

Yukikaze is 10 kenki without the bonus

#

15 with bonus

left cedar
#

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*

hoary storm
#

in your skills list

#

if you havent unlocked it yet you need to

left cedar
#

Ahh

hoary storm
latent bloom
#

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.

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there a guide for dancer?

#

I'm so lost...

latent bloom
#

Lemme try this. Idk if it's rank specific

twilit arch
#

!faq dncguide

zinc orbitBOT
latent bloom
#

Aaaand that was it

leaden ginkgo
#

Dope. Thank you

latent bloom
#

Is that thing available for Mentors only or can anyone do it?

twilit arch
#

anyone can use the !faq commands

latent bloom
#

Thank you.

faint flare
#

Preferably do them in #kupo-bot-spam. There's a "!faq" command to bring up all possible commands

latent bloom
#

Thank you Vinyl.

little swift
#

you can use them here if it will benefit/answer a question

latent bloom
#

Of course. But if i need to try them, ill take it to spam

leaden ginkgo
#

So, can someone explain what proc-based means? I'm new to FFXIV and have only really played BLM and SMN.

wintry chasm
#

oooo

faint flare
#

Procs means a skill actives an additional effect like getting accesd to a different skill

#

Or augmenting another skill

wintry chasm
#

procs are when skills will get enhanced/available when criteria is met?

faint flare
#

For black mage, your main procs are Thundercloud and Firestarter

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay, so with DNC, that would be Standard Step and Tech Step, correct?

twilit arch
#

no

faint flare
#

No, dancer would be their flourish skills

#

For procs

shrewd owl
#

^

wintry chasm
#

^

faint flare
#

Feathers as well

twilit arch
#

reverse cascade, rising windmill, fountainfall etc

shrewd owl
#

dancer's weaponskills can "proc" additional skills

twilit arch
#

those are the procs

shrewd owl
#

yup

twilit arch
#

!action Cascade

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Cascade** : lvl 1 DNC (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 250.
Additional Effect: 50% chance of granting Flourishing Cascade
Duration: 20s

※Action changes to Emboite while dancing.

twilit arch
#

if you notice the "Additional Effect" line

wintry chasm
#

Additional Effect: 50% chance of granting Flourishing Cascade

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay. Sorry for the dumb questions. I'm coming from ESO so a lot of the terms are newer to me.

shrewd owl
#

its like how red mage can "proc" verfire and verstone with verthunder and veraero respectively

wintry chasm
#

you can reword that to basically mean "50% chance of procing Flourishing Cascade"

#

because you are making it available

leaden ginkgo
#

I gotcha now. Thank you for the help. 🙂

twilit arch
#

and don't worry about dumb questions, we're here to help

leaden ginkgo
#

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

faint flare
#

Yes, dont be lazy and swap your pet

hybrid owl
#

can you change standing pose? im a male aura right now and im standing like a god damn pillar men

shrewd owl
#

do /cpose

faint flare
#

Garuda for trash (3+), ifirit for 2 and lower targets

leaden ginkgo
#

When should I use Titan? Or should I even bother?

#

Cause he gives out a armour buff, correct?

hybrid owl
#

oh cool it defaults to that when i stand

shrewd owl
#

i just use titan outside of dungeons

twilit arch
#

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

leaden ginkgo
#

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)

faint flare
#

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

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay, I will keep that in mind. Might need to readjust my crossbar for pet command s

latent bloom
#

Very important for healers

#

Or well, SCH

oblique yew
#

How long does this data centre/world XP buff last?

faint flare
#

I just have place and Sic down. Heel can be put as.well

leaden ginkgo
#

whats best way to farm poetics?

latent bloom
#

UNtil the server reachs a set number of players

faint flare
#

Road to.70 lasts 90days minimum

latent bloom
#

Daily roulettes is the most consistent.

faint flare
#

Longer if server stays preferred

#

Preferred statuses change on patches

leaden ginkgo
#

Awesome, thank you so much for the help. I definitely have a long way to go. So much to learn. Ahh, I love it.

latent bloom
#

It will come with time

faint flare
#

So wont change until 5.3

limber hamlet
#

torn betwween summoner or samurai, how hard is a summoners rotation?

leaden ginkgo
#

I just got to 66 last night and I've found it pretty easy.

faint flare
#

Its long with the cycles

#

But once you're in the flow its not that bad

limber hamlet
#

so its a long rotation, but an easy one?

faint flare
#

Somewhat...you got a few things to juggle

latent bloom
#

SMN is a very powerful job if you can keep it going. Plus, you have a raise which can help.

faint flare
#

Like aetherflow, pet business, egi assaults, ruin stacks etc

#

Dots

limber hamlet
#

so as a newer player, maybe I shouldnt go summoner?

faint flare
#

You can

latent bloom
#

But if you lose you place in the rotation, it's hard to regain lost ground

leaden ginkgo
#

I got yelled at for rezing a healer as smn. Is that typically a no no?

faint flare
#

The game easiest you into. It

latent bloom
#

No

faint flare
#

They're bad sart

#

Ignore them

latent bloom
#

^

faint flare
#

If a healer is dead definitely help

latent bloom
#

If the healer dies, you are the hero

limber hamlet
#

so how are samurai's, than?

faint flare
#

Low skill floor, high skill ceiling

#

High personal dps

latent bloom
#

And great damage

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm afraid to get into SAM

#

It looks confusing to me.

faint flare
#

It gives yoy the basic kit

#

Then steadily builds

latent bloom
#

Some DPS do. It just comes with trial and error

leaden ginkgo
#

I started with SMN. Did BLM for a few levels, think somewhere around 30-40ish. Like it, but SMN is my ❤️

limber hamlet
#

so summoner dps, since its split into dot's, pets and basic spells is low/mid personal dps?

faint flare
#

You just cycle through your 3 combos, get youe stickers, throw your dot.up for 1 sticker then do weeb slash with 3 stickers

hybrid owl
#

stickers lmao

#

i just image a samurai going around throwing stickers

leaden ginkgo
#

😂

latent bloom
#

Wannabe Ninja.

#

But yes, stickers is an excellent term for them

shrewd owl
#

shout your ability names out loud too
HISSATSU SPECIAL TECHNIQUE

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm ~80 quests away from reaching Shadow bringers, 40 left on Stormblood then the in-between stuff.

latent bloom
#

Keep going. Shadowbringers is fantastic.

leaden ginkgo
#

Kugane, is just absolutely gorgeous. Same with Azim Steppe

limber hamlet
#

so how are summoners/sams for end game?

faint flare
#

Very good

#

Both very strong dps

latent bloom
#

No one will complain about having either on a team

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh! How (and when) should I start The Crystal Tower?

faint flare
#

Before starting Shadowbringers

leaden ginkgo
#

I know before shadow bringers, but is there a tie in after Stormblood?

latent bloom
#

When you have a chance. If you desire, im willing to help you through it

faint flare
#

Just whenever prior to Shadowbringers

latent bloom
#

I have an alt on the server

limber hamlet
#

so overall both are good choices, summoner may just take more work?

latent bloom
#

Word of warning though about doing the crystal tower dungeons

faint flare
#

If you want to be optimal they both require abit with work

latent bloom
#

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

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh I've learned that with ESO, raids can bring the worst in people sometimes.

faint flare
#

Crystal tower is face rolly anyway

latent bloom
#

people have been struggling with the last one though

faint flare
#

Because they greed and be stupid

latent bloom
#

Tanks being too stubborn to turn off stance, instant dying from... uhh... that debuff when it hits 0, you die

leaden ginkgo
#

I'll have to read more about it, then get back to you on that offer @latent bloom ,

faint flare
#

Doom

latent bloom
#

Thank you. doom

leaden ginkgo
#

Doom?

faint flare
#

Yes doom

#

Classic FF doom

#

Debuff hits 0, you die

leaden ginkgo
#

Oooooooo

heavy jasper
#

is there any incentive for roullete duties after hitting 80? i know theres a nominal amount of gil/seals & those materials, but anything else?

latent bloom
#

In the last raid, you go to a platform and it will get rid of it.

faint flare
#

Tomestones

heavy jasper
#

but for stuff like the levelling roullette where i think its just exp & gil there's nothing else, yeah?

halcyon sleet
#

Leveling other jobs, materia incentives

leaden ginkgo
#

Anywho, thank you for the helpful information. Definitely more excited to get further into the game. I'm out!

latent bloom
#

You get various tomes

faint flare
#

At 80 most roulettes will give you tomes

#

Instead of xp

#

Cause you know, dont need xp at 80

halcyon sleet
#

There's also the mentor system if you're into that

latent bloom
#

An exact detail on what you get

heavy jasper
#

aww man

#

i've been falling behind msq cus it takes me like 2 hours to get through everything xD

boreal aurora
#

22min average it says to get group for story dungeon

#

yikes

heavy jasper
#

msq eats up so much time

boreal aurora
#

its late night here

latent bloom
#

Oh ya, that will extend the time on it

boreal aurora
#

why cant i use npcs

latent bloom
#

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

boreal aurora
#

no didnt do it

#

i have to do it for MSQ

latent bloom
#

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

nova umbra
#

is there a crafting beast tribe for 70-80?

twilit arch
#

not yet

#

5.3 will be adding one

nova umbra
#

mm okay

boreal aurora
#

can i go to ishgard restoration or do i need to unlock it with MSQ first

olive sequoia
#

any reason my game is downloading at .70mb/s while my gf can download it at 13mb/s on the same internet

faint flare
#

Ishgard restoration required MSQ completion up to 3.3

#

Before the quest to unlock appears

boreal aurora
#

oh

oblique delta
#

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 ?

faint flare
#

Someone might have relocated to it then relocated out

#

To reset everything

mossy tartan
#

Sometimes I see LB get charged super fast and sometimes it’s too slow, what are the factors that affect it?

boreal aurora
#

cant even play have to wait till i find group to do the MSQ dungeon

#

😔

faint flare
#

Dealing crits to the enemy, healing people who are very lower or using shields to prevent lethal damage

#

Generates extra lb

mossy tartan
#

And in terms of DPS roles?

boreal aurora
#

gotta hurry up need to get to lvl70 all the stuff i want cuz buff is gone in 2 weeks

faint flare
#

Doing crits

mossy tartan
#

only crits?

#

ok

faint flare
#

Is how you help

mossy tartan
#

Thank you

faint flare
#

Having duplicate jobs also slows the generation of lb

is there a way to move your head around and other people seeing that without targetting people?

wintry chasm

You can do that in gpose for screenshots

#

but outside of it no

foggy kiln
#

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

sage plaza

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

slate arrow
#

also superfast LB is due to special mobs

sage plaza
#

assuming you're not seeing the effect of duplicate classes

slate arrow
#

for example the adds in a12 both versions give a stupid amount of LB due to the tank LB requirement

still scarab
#

is there a LFG anywhere?

signal rover
#

How long for Mogstation items to show up in mail usually?

twilit arch
#

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

sage plaza
#

floor 101-200

little swift
#

it means you have to start over

leaden ginkgo
#

You have to start over.

#

Welcome to POTD!

solemn delta
#

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

static yacht
#

ye typically

solemn delta
#

Wasn't sure just unlocked it

static yacht
#

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

round otter
#

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?

static yacht
#

you just become unable to level further

#

and yes you can change jobs

round otter
#

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

solemn delta
#

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 swift
#

@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

round otter
#

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

fresh dagger
#

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?

jade quartz
#

Preferred servers are not congested. Those are mutually exclusive server statuses.

wintry chasm
#

Congested isn't the right term but basically it's when less people are logged on at once

#

So just later in the day

jade quartz
#

!faq serverlock

zinc orbitBOT
#
Why can't I enter this server?
Info

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.

wintry chasm
#

I'd absolutely wait

jade quartz
#

“Congested” is its own server status applied manually by SE to overpopulated servers. No servers currently have the congested status.

fresh dagger
#

so what time should I start trying to join?

wintry chasm
#

"later"

jade quartz
#

Mornings are a low-population time

#

But just like

#

Keep trying intermittently

fresh dagger
#

I know its prime time for the west coast rn

jade quartz
#

Like every hour or so maybe

wintry chasm
#

Or just late into the night

fresh dagger
#

okay

wintry chasm
#

But yeah what Sloppe said

fresh dagger
#

got it

jade quartz
#

Oh no I’m going to actually become known as that

wintry chasm
#

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

left cedar
#

Are there any guides for synthesizing specific items? I bought materials for 200k and if I mess this up, I would be.. upset. lol

fresh dagger
#

so I tryed this game out like a year ago, and I got to level 30

wintry chasm
#

A) get good
B) there are crafting simulators/calculators online but shame on you for using them Orion

fresh dagger
#

my plan atm is just to load my charachter data onto a new toon and start at level 1

#

because Ive forgotten a lot

left cedar
#

Got it lol

#

But tbh I never learned how to use it

Oh fair M3me

Oh nice Channy

Er, Rob 5

#

Is there a good way to farm a specific item in the diadem

little swift
#

:^)

#

use the aether cannon to blast the correct enemy

wintry chasm
#

Certain mobs drop certain loot tables otherwise nah?

willow raven
#

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

zinc orbitBOT

#

alt+y is the yell command iirc

#

maybe you have your alt button pressed down

willow raven
#

LOL I gave my alt button a good smash and it's normal again

#

Thank you

fresh dagger
#

at what point do I have to start looking up boss mechanics ahead of time?

wintry chasm
#

Really just extreme/savage fights

fresh dagger
#

because I remember being able to play them mostly by ear for early arr

wintry chasm
#

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

fresh dagger
#

got it

wintry chasm
#

No one expects someone to have to look up mechanics for any of those dungeons/trials/raids

fresh dagger
#

also tank limit breaks are still trash right?

junior yacht
#

in leveling, yeah

wintry chasm
#

They are mandatory for some fights but generally yeah very very very niche

jade quartz
#

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

wintry chasm
#

/general content where shit hits the fan

vital kettle
#

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

fresh dagger
#

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

wintry chasm
#

Uhhh

junior yacht
#

which level 35 trial

#

like, job quest, or msq

jade quartz
#

Free trial

junior yacht
#

oh, that

jade quartz
#

There is no time limit on it

junior yacht
#

no

jade quartz
#

Just restrictions on what you can do.

wintry chasm
#

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

junior yacht
#

no time limit, just a content limit

vital kettle
#

Gotcha, thank you~!

wintry chasm
#

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?

fresh dagger
#

I remember it being
paladin- physical defence, hardest tanks
marader- hp, can do more damage
and then the other 2 are super fuzzy

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

wintry chasm
#

Hardest tanks?

fresh dagger
#

like I just want that level of depth

slate arrow
#

There's no more physical magical difference

jade quartz
#

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

slate arrow
#

except for DRK which has the only magical reduction skill for tankbusters

fresh dagger
#

hard as in the most quintesential tank

wintry chasm
#

I mean...it's what you most expect sure

jade quartz
#

Actual functional balance between tanks is very close to equal.

#

Gnb is, marginally, the squishiest but also the highest dps

wintry chasm
#

(by like, 300 DPS)

fresh dagger
#

is that a lot?

jade quartz
#

No

wintry chasm
#

lol no

jade quartz
#

Marginal.

wintry chasm
#

That wouldn't even show up on a bar

slate arrow
#

Average DPS of tanks currently is like 8000

#

closer to 9000 probs

#

if you're in BiS (i500) gear, possibly 10k

wintry chasm
#

Yeah 10k pretty fair for 500

fresh dagger
#

so I think im just gonna level gladiator for now and look into which tank is coolest once I hit heavensward

nova umbra
#

is there no way to use a hat with glasses?

jade quartz
#

Yeah the game in its current state is about picking your preferred playstyle rather than what’s meta.

wintry chasm
#

No, sad times Zydico

nova umbra
#

😢

wintry chasm
#

@jade quartz it always was

jade quartz
#

There are some head items that are a combined hat + glasses, but can’t do it with two items.

#

Ehhhh

wintry chasm
#

Alright, since SB

jade quartz
#

Yeah.

fresh dagger
#

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

wintry chasm
#

You do you

#

Leveling up multiple jobs in the long run will make you more flexible

fresh dagger
#

but I also have to level multiple jobs

wintry chasm
#

Hence you do you

jade quartz
#

Play as many or as few different jobs as you like

slate arrow
#

you don't have to

finite ferry
#

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

slate arrow
#

you can

#

@finite ferry are you sure that's not your latency

#

an 800 potency raiton is a shitload of dps

wintry chasm
#

If you don't like mudras it doesn't get much better out of tenchijin

fresh dagger
#

will having multiple tanks leveled make that much of a difference in flexibility or are you guys talking about different roles/dps types

slate arrow
#

like it's pretty normal to see NIN on top of DPS charts up until 70

#

@fresh dagger not really

Meta Jobs FAQ
Info

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

Click here for the best jobs in the game though

mostly roles

little swift
#

leveling all your tanks just lets you play what you want when you want

slate arrow
#

now for roles play whatever you find fun

little swift
#

they're all pretty much teh same

fresh dagger
#

so from a team comp perspective all tanks and healers are p much the same?

slate arrow
#

the only one I recommend leveling is healer since the highest you can start as one is at level 30 after getting to Heavensward

jade quartz
#

You get a cute mount for getting all jobs to 80. Now that’s an incentive.

slate arrow
#

yes

jade quartz
#

Duplicate jobs are to be avoided

wintry chasm
#

For high end content people will typically not run duplicate jobs but that is it

slate arrow
#

as long as you're not doubling up on a job everything is viable, and even that double jobs sometimes work

wintry chasm

finite ferry
#

I just like the level 60 glam for NIN

jade quartz
#

For that reason you may want multiple options for joining parties.

fresh dagger
#

but even then, I can totally function as a solo paladin main

jade quartz
#

Only applies to endgame statics or savage pugs though

#

Yep

fresh dagger
#

is there any benefit to exp after you hit cap?

slate arrow
#

no

leaden ginkgo
#

what’s the goal of the hidden gorge pvp mode

jade quartz
#

There’s the Legacy Warrior gear on the Mogstation which is based on the FF1 Fighter’s sprite

slate arrow
#

your EXP technically turns into endgame rewards of Phantasmagoria and allegory if you're at 80, or Poetics if you're locked to 50

jade quartz
#

It was given out free with a past anniversary event.

slate arrow
#

@leaden ginkgo rival wings: destroy your opponents crystal

leaden ginkgo
#

ok

jade quartz
#

It’s a MOBA-inspired mode

fresh dagger
#

in other words, is there any reason for me to not do daily roulettes with other classes I wanna level?

jade quartz
#

It’s a bit daunting for new players, follow callouts in your alliance chat

#

@fresh dagger nope

fresh dagger
#

thanks

jade quartz
#

Note each daily roulette only gives rewards once per day per character though

#

Not per job.

obsidian patio
#

@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

jade quartz
#

I think it’s under Seasonal (unisex)

obsidian patio
#

Yep

jade quartz
#

Yes

Wizard’s set/sorcerer’s set and healer’s set/cleric’s set

Two versions of each

slate arrow
#

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?

Enmity is a non-issue

warped nest

@fresh dagger no tank is better at enmity

fresh dagger
#

got it

obsidian patio
#

Tanks are super well balanced compared to DPS/healers

jade quartz
#

Enmity is held by all tanks with no effort required, just need their tank stance turned on.

obsidian patio
#

Only 2-4% difference in damage depending on the percentile you look at

jade quartz
#

Damage between tanks is an extremely marginal difference. Player skill is a far bigger variable

slate arrow
#

and coordination

fresh dagger
#

so tanking is less about managing emnity than not dying/ being secondary dps

slate arrow
#

they did away with enimity management in ShB

jade quartz
#

If you’re really desperate to know, the dps stats at highest parsing levels are GNB > PLD > DRK/WAR roughly equal

slate arrow
#

Since back in stormblood and before enimity management was everyone but the tanks job

fresh dagger
#

ShB is shadowbringers right?

jade quartz
#

But as mentioned it’s so tiny that you shouldn’t * make decisions based off it

hello, free trial player here - what should I do after getting all jobs (DoL and DoH included) to 35? other than the tomestones

remote lintel
#

buy the game?

rare comet
#

PFFF

#

fair enough

#

was just wondering if there's anything else I should do to get a headstart before I buy game

remote lintel
#

not really

#

besides doing all the blue quests

rare comet
#

right, forgot about that

#

the class quests too

leaden ginkgo
#

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

remote lintel
#

but you can always just come back to stuff whenever

rare comet
#

I would totally do that, but it's monthly payments, so

#

🤷‍♂️

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo no idea what that is then

#

never seen it

rare comet

ty!

remote lintel
#

@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?

@remote lintel ik that, but that's the problem XD

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?!

sage plaza

well something that's tied to a launcher

#

i dunno what it is, but i know somebody who uses and swears by it

halcyon sleet
#

If you're enjoying yourself then that's great, but i personally burned out and benefited greatly from moving onto the newer content

rare comet

👍

dense pier
#

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

muted blade
#

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

faint flare
#

You will only get 1 item from normal

sage plaza
#

one item per floor

muted blade
#

i see

sage plaza
#

kill as many time as necessary to get that item

muted blade
#

interesting

If you roll on everything, you'll automatically pass on stuff when you receive an item

#

Savage is different then?

faint flare
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

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

Party finder and recruitment channels here

Also r/ffxivrecruitment

are those generally good groups?

wheres the party finder channel

Party finder is in game

like duty finder?

or is there something else in the game

Do you guys think shadowbringers will be on sale steam summer sale

fresh dagger
#

so is summoner still based around spending 2 minutes building up to bahamut and then wrecking shit or has it been reworked?

faint flare
#

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

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?

faint flare
#

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

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*

olive sequoia
#

so it doesnt really matter, theres 2 full servers that say xp boosts for new characters but I cant join em

little swift
#

ping those and see what is most comfortable on your ping

#

and join a preferred world if you can

olive sequoia
#

all the NA datacenters say my connection is excellent

little swift
#

preferred worlds will likely allow new character creation in the middle of the night

#

or super early in the morning

olive sequoia
#

its 11 pm

#

How big is the xp difference

little swift
#

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

olive sequoia
#

Oh so how much longer do you think itll take for a xp boosted server to open up

little swift
#

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

olive sequoia
#

Are there really that many people up in the US at midnight

little swift
#

yes

#

currently becasue of COVID many people have more time on their hands

olive sequoia

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

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

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

lime sphinx
#

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

#

gotcha

#

well its made me level my arm to 50 so thats good

you do need to clear normal version in succession since there's raid story with it

@jade quartz ty

I just realized that was a thing

#

I feel very dumb now lol

inland scarab
#

wasn't MSG something u use with cooking? 😂

limber hamlet
#

can the armoury chest hold an unlimited amount of stuff?

inland scarab
#

more like only hold up stuff that SE registers

jade quartz
#

@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.

limber hamlet
#

so they hold 35 slots each, so i gotta discard some stuff lol

inland scarab
#

or grind desynth with it

jade quartz
#

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?

Glamour Dresser FAQ
Info

"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.

inland scarab
#

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

limber hamlet
#

so i need glamour prisms

inland scarab
#

yes

jade quartz
#

Yeah but glamour prisms are a pittance on the marketboard

inland scarab
#

just to store em

limber hamlet
#

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

jade quartz
#

One in the adventurers' guild/tavern of each major city

#

Speak to the innkeep and select "Retire to inn room"

inland scarab
#

again, there's also one in GC squadron room

limber hamlet
#

ok cool, so just buy a chunk of glamour prisms off of the marketplace, than store my stuff?

jade quartz
#

(Requires completion of level 9 MSQ to use)

inland scarab
#

but u need to rank up your GC to access that i guess

jade quartz
#

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

limber hamlet
#

i dont even think I grabbed retainers, and i havent pulled our my chocobo in ages

jade quartz
#

Oh boy

#

unlock your retainers

#

they're your item bank.

#

You get two retainers, each holds 175 items

limber hamlet
#

i should look into it

jade quartz
#

They're kind of a vital system

#

They're also how you sell items on the market board.

inland scarab
#

i think 2.0 msq will point you to hire retainers anyways

jade quartz
#

It does but people still miss it

narrow fable
#

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?

jade quartz
#

The chocobo saddlebag doesn't require summoning the chocobo to use btw

#

Just as long as you've unlocked summoning your chocobo with greens

inland scarab
#

saddlebag also can be used while cross-server as well

jade quartz
#

it's an extra tab of inventory you can just open any time.

limber hamlet
#

wait, how?

inland scarab
#

there's also little pay subscription to hire extra 8+1 more retainers & double your saddlebag spaces

limber hamlet
#

on the choco saddlebags

inland scarab
#

iirc sidequest

limber hamlet
#

i unlocked the chocobo partner thing

jade quartz
#

Default hotkey ctrl+shift+i

#

Or under character menu -> chocobo saddlebag

#

I changed mine to shift+i or something

inland scarab
#

quest name "My Feisty Little Chocobo" for requirement accessing saddlebag. lvl 30 quest

deft quiver

can i transfer my trial character to steam version of the game if i buy it?

inland scarab

steam are treated as different port

deft quiver
#

so all this progress i made in the trial will be lost

#

You can transfer

#

This only works for trial stuff

inland scarab

that's nice then

deft quiver

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

warped nest
#

<@&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

wet cradle
#

what is the lvl 70 artifact armor set called?

inland scarab
#

that sounds doubtful. again as i said earlier, steam are treated as separate port

wet cradle
#

I'm trying to get the gear set for eureka to gear up

warped nest
#

Are you gearing up with eureka for glamour or for stat?

wet cradle
#

glamour

inland scarab
#

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

wet cradle
#

what is BA?

warped nest
#

OK, you should be able to get your lvl 70 artifact from the calamity salvager

inland scarab
#

Baldesion Arsenal

warped nest
#

It is the last boss for Eureka content so to speak

inland scarab
#

Eureka end-game content

wet cradle
#

ah great thanks 🙂

warped nest
#

It is optional though

#

You don't need to beat it for your glamour

#

Although beating it does give you a cool mount

wet cradle
#

ugh now I have to D:

#

but there is a modern aesthetic that drops from eureka

#

that's my primary goal here

indigo orbit
#

Are there even enough people doing eureka to make BA doable still

wet cradle
#

how does that work?

inland scarab
#

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

@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

Hey!! Thanks Wynne

- 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?

The dhalmel?

#

!mount dhalmel

zinc orbitBOT
#
Dhalmel (1 Seats)

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.

#

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

inland scarab
#

that's rly one of stupidest reason i read. 😂

obsidian patio
#

If you want to know another silly flying mount, the Adamantoise from the gold saucer spins like a firework

Kame sennin reference

inland scarab
#

^ 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... 😅

jolly sorrel
#

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?

frozen karma
#

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?

obsidian patio
#

@frank wigeon since you cleared for the week, you can't get any loot from E5S until next week

oblique delta
#

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.

#

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

obsidian patio
#

yes

ok haha, I just beat syrcus tower and I feel like I didn't even need to be there

#

You can do zero DPS in Alli raids, nobody ever really notices as long as you don't die more than twice

frank wigeon
#

anyone knwow her ei can join a group for e5s? +

#

recruitment-jp? is taht it

next steppe
#

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

pine bluff
#

is the leveling roulette still worth doing past lvl 60?

jade quartz
#

Yes

#

Always.

frank wigeon
#

cheers @next steppe

jade quartz
#

The daily rewards from roulettes scale to your level.

pine bluff
#

ah ok

jade quartz
#

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.

pine bluff
#

even the super short ones like titan?

warped nest
#

It will roughly match the time needed to clear the content

pine bluff
#

ah ok

jade quartz
#

Leveling roulette is never not worth it for exp.

warped nest
#

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

next steppe
#

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

warped nest
#

Treasure maps

icy quiver
#

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?

warped nest
#

Then you can just queue the dungeons directly...

icy quiver
#

but if I do with roulette it will be same?

warped nest
#

Yeah

#

Roulette do have Adventurer in Need bonus, that bonus doesn't have daily limit

pine bluff
#

but it's not that much

icy quiver
#

it means gil?

open coral
#

Adventurer in Need bonus also doesn't include tomestones. It's only xp, gil, crystals/stellaclusters, and/or GC seals, depending on the roulette.

icy quiver
#

oh thanks
Kinda sucks to see no exp at all at lv 80

proven bay
icy quiver
#

do right click on the hotbar number

proven bay
#

Oh, I see

#

I got it, thanks

icy quiver
#

np

#

if you click on the tiny lock it will prevent it

jade quartz
#

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.

icy quiver
#

well you can just click on it again

jade quartz
#

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.

proven bay
#

That's really helpful actually

dense pier
#

How can I turn off the "error' noise when trying to use a spell and it's on CD/GCD/Out of range/ect.

jade quartz
#

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.

dense pier
#

Looks like that works

noble ember
#

What is the best dps atm? I'm coming back after 4 years of not playing lol.

jade quartz
#

@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.

@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

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?

jade quartz
#

Yes

solemn delta
#

I literally used everything in my arsenal on SCH to keep him alive but just could not

jade quartz
#

a tank not using cooldowns is not performing at the basic level of competency.

solemn delta
#

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

open coral
#

You certainly can tell them to use their cooldowns. Just as they can choose to ignore you and continue being bad.

solemn delta
#

Granted PLD have clemency and don't really need mp at 60 ish

jade quartz
#

Dissipation is something you should use anyway, though

#

it's a good cooldown

solemn delta
#

Oh i do.

strong sphinx
#

how should i got about purchasing Crystaöl Sand for the Anima Relic?

solemn delta
#

When things get rough and I need a few more Lustrates and another Excog

#

I'll pop it

jade quartz
#

Ideally you plan out its use

#

and don't leave anything for "emergencies".

solemn delta
#

Well, I'm sorta half way there

jade quartz
#

GCD heals are for emergencies.

solemn delta
#

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

jade quartz
#

Dungeons are the best exp source after daily roulettes are complete, yes

#

with the only caveat being the queue time.

#

Hence, HoH for DPS.

solemn delta
#

I only use roulettes for my 70+

strong sphinx
jade quartz
#

But as you say HoH doesn't really reflect a real gameplay scenario very well

solemn delta
#

True I just spam ruin II lol

#

Except on boss

jade quartz
#

@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

strong sphinx
#

havent crafted or fgathered so far :/

jade quartz
#

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.

strong sphinx
#

^heard about that one too

burnt spear
#

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.....

jade quartz
#

@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.

warped nest
#

People don't chat in public in this game, @willow spruce

#

There are many alternative channels

Well sometimes in Limsa or endgame hub shout chat they do

but mostly yeah

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
