When u choose different worlds when creating ur character does it change your spawn location? Like on Phoe is world I dtsrted at Ul'Dah and on Twilight I started on Limsa Lominsa
No
Your starting city is depending on starting class
It tells you what city you start in in the corner when picking your starting class
Ohhh ok
I was using the Axe b4 that's y
Oh wow just realised how many cities there are
This world map is hugeee
If I want to get Blue Scrips through Crafting/gathering for Crystal Sand for the Anima Relic but I havent gathered or crafted before, how long/much gil does it take to get crafting and/or gathering to the point till I get those Blue Scrips?
There are three starting cities.
You can start earning scrips at about level 50 or 51, it’s not too far in
Unlock custom deliveries (first one’s Zhloe in Idyllshire) for a big boost of scrips weekly
@jade quartz alright, will check that!
when does roulettes / dailies roll over? I thought I remember it being 2PM ST for me, but I guess not!

Is there a ranking of guilds in FFXIV or sth? Can you be one of the best guilds on server/all servers?
No guild ranking
You can only really been known as a FC by taking part and doing well in world races
thank you, was off by an hour, heck!
Nope
Need to google world races first to understand you
ok, I am out of this topic
dont undestand sry. . . anyway
is there some ranking of that?
No
ohhh
Other than unofficial/player made ones
No ranking. Only prestige / word of mouth
This game doesn't emphasize on PvP gameplay as much, let alone having guild V guild related features
FrostyTV (content creator) makes a excell sheet for people to monitor.world races to see where groups are
No
sad - the game has everything what a good pvp mmo on click basis must have for that imo
hahahahahaha
I am having difficulty understanding the entire last half of that sentence.
mhmm maybe not - I think they have enough money for it
This game have PvP and they are throwing in some new variations on their large scale maps
Thinking the server structure is good lul
However, it is just not as popular as other gameplay content
SE is too busy putting sub money into other games like project altia
But isnt it now getting more interest in the casual area?
sure, but still FFXIV is counted a one of the best MMOs existing now so I was assuming it has also almost everything
Take note that they have all the data their need to decide what gameplay content they want to pour their resources into.
The fact that they pull in Yoko Taro to work on Alliance raid shows that even 24 player PvE is miles ahead of PvP in their popularity
I'm having some weird artifacting happening after a windows update was pushed. Anyone else have this happen?
Updated drivers and it still happened.
niiiight be a hardware issue then
Gpu isn't overheating at all and its on FF14
Maybe not like world PvP but other PVP content like Guild wars and different pvp modes are

what kinda artifacting are we talking about
The dev made their decision to do what they did with PvP based in the data and feedback they have.
@dapper echo there's ranked pvp, mosh pit pvp, moba pvp, and duel pvp
It seems to be certain character models
@flat root either reinstall FFXIV or your GPU may be having an early death
Well ok, will need to try it out - maybe it will be a good exchange for that - I reacted to that negatively because from yu guys it sounded like FFXIV is like not really a pvp game at all
It's a final fantasy game first and MMO second
Thanks. Its currently reinstalling
The only draw I had to pvp was grinding for the garo mounts, but that's over now
PvP is a okay way to get exp too
People dont really care for pvp unless theres an event like this moogle tome event to give pvp more incentive
But this game does very little to encourage competition in your regular content
outside of PvP the leaderboards only exist for specific content like roguelike dungeons or the restoration when seasons are active
Ok to finalize it: In this game like no one is really interested in PVP?
it's a side mode
Its a small community
There are some die hards
There's a pvp discord
hmmm
there's a pvp discord if you're really still interested
But small community
And it’s fun enough as side content
how small?
but we wouldn't recommend getting into the game if you want PvP as your main things
But people wouldn’t play it without mount incentives and stuff
You're still locked behind the Main Scenario Quest anyways
Right now with all the bad news from you side and bad feelings about it from my side Feels like I need an other game which has everything FFXIV has but also the PVP 😭
could just play WoW /shrug
Hell no
then just accept that pvp is not a focus in ffxiv
Started with Wow - went to Aion and now here
then just accept that pvp is not a focus in ffxiv
@slate arrow Well seems like there is no other choices on the market
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
People supposedly like PvP in ESO though I can’t see the appeal
I was looking for a game with an Assasin type of character and PVP
FFXIV is wahat I hoped for
You can definitely play it if you want, but I think people are trying to say it's impossible to make that your only focus (the game makes you play story, dungeons, raids etc)
gee it's like mmos are stupidly expensive games to set up and maintain or something so everyone has defaulted to a lobby matchmaking style game for "MMOs" coughs in destiny 2, Fortnite, and a whole bunch of terrible free 2 play games
Well I like the parts of story, dungeons, raids etc - As I said - for me Perfectness was Aion - till it became F2P ofc...
And right now FFXIV is the only thing I found was close to that
Why would f2p be a turn off?
and even better on the PVE mechanics
So settle for close enough then
f2p=P2W
Ah
F2P usually signifies a drop in content and increase in p2w
And just quality totally dropping.
yep
what is palace of the dead ? im trying to do heaven on high and it says i need to do palace of the dead up to floor 50
We pay a sub and get consistent large content patches and no p2w.
Roguelike dungeon you enter by going to quarrymill
Well anyway seems like there is no other game out there so ye I will stay here and accept the reallity😥
@wild terrace the first deep dungeon, unlocked in gridania
@wild terrace it’s the 1–60 version of HoH, unlocks via level 17 quest “The House That Death Built” in Gridania‘s tavern.
time to start looking for it
I hope you still find enjoyment out of the game, I dropped into Eorzea on a whim after getting stressed out on finals and now oops I've been subbed for a year and I have every job at 80 on a single character oh god dammit yoship
Yes - well till now I enjoyed the game. But I also had bigger hopes of the PvP - well we will see
Anyway thanks to everyone for the discussion
and information
Try out PvP and see
It's definitely something you can get into. Some ppl in my fc are wicked die hards and they enjoy it a lot
Now I will have at least less expectations
And if you really like it, become one of the die-hards
haha ok:)
Like it’s totally functional content
anyways you won't be able to poke pvp until level 30 in the MSQ but it exists, it works, and for the most part it's actually fairly balanced
if you want to play an assassin the unlock process is a little convoluted
ye I am already lvl 50 ninja
aight
But anyway I go first to 80 before finding a guild and Pvp
Just enjoying slowly the Storyline and thats all
fair enough
ok anyway its better to get slow into the high end content
is there a ffxiv discord server focused towards raids and stuff?
is this the last quest in msq? iv done the dung 2 times and still not done
It's not a dungeon, it's a trial
What does the set bonus for the GC gears for? o:
XD ty
The entrance should be right where you are
at what ilvl should i start use the materia on gear?
I honestly wait until it's semi-permanent gear, like rn that's crystarium (augmented if you're into that)
But you can do whenever tbh
Materia isn't that hard to come by
crystarium hm no idea what that is
Ah that's the highest item level rn (for casuals like me) 490
You can get up to 500 by doing savage raids
You buy it with tomestones of allegory
o nice im at 40 day 1
Are there any loot rules on E#N? Brand new to this tier
E1 through 4 allow you to roll as much as you want
So four per week
E5 though 8 allow you to win one token per floor per week
Yeah ^
Minion and orchestrion rolls don't count
@crimson crystal Thank you
Thanks! so if I get lucky I can get multiple in one clear of E1 through 4?
Yeah
super, thank you! When is the reset?
!weekly
(Tuesday)
Great! Written all that down. Thanks for the help
Do note that you get tokens not the actual gear
You need 1 accesory token for 1 accessory
But 4 chest tokens for a cheat piece
Thank you, I took the time to read the descriptions, is the exchange in Eulmore?
Yes
Goodness me I never thought you would have such trouble dungeon leveling 60-70.
Tank pulls everything, I use everything I have he dies.
I have a look. We're in Bardams Mettle btw.
DNC is full poetic augmented with 29.9k hp. DRK has 31k....
So I check his gear, 200 weapons and 230 body etc and it's my fault we can't pull every pack?
how soon into the game can you change class? I'm starting together with my friend and we want to start in the same city
hello, I'm having problem with a duty..
You can change classes once you finish your level 10 class quest 
like I select the duty I want and I press join, waiting for ppl to join. then I got a notify from an other duty and since I didn't want to do that one I got a penalty
and you can easily travel between cities once you finish the level 15 MSQ 
how does that work?
If you cancel too much
like I just want to do mine for a msq and I don't wanna do others
It gives you a penalty
You can be queued for more than one duty at once, make sure you uncheck other duties
You get a penalty if you decline 3 times a day
@tidal yarrow make sure you're not queued up for multiple things
At the bottom there should be a button that says clear
Probably queued up for more than one
Click on that after every time you use the duty finder
Or don't check off more than one duty
oh okay.. thank you! it was on 2/5
Whenever you queue for something on the right side of the screen it'll tell you what you are trying to queue for
And it'll give you any of those options
ugh I lost 20 minutes cause I didn't wanna refuse a 2nd one before lol..
but hey it's still xp
You can refuse 2, after the 3rd you get a 30min penalty iirc
oh I see
if I want to change class. how does it work? like I'll be level 1 I guess so I'd need to farm till I get good enough to keep going with msq?
Each job/class has an independent level from each other
After you complete the lv 10 job quest on one job you can start to pick up new jobs by going to their guilds
ARR jobs start at lv 1
HW 30
SB 50
and SHB 60
oh okay.. thanks
The only job that shares lvl is Arcanist
They can become Scholar or Summoner at lv 30
And they both lvl at the same time
so basically yeah if I want to go like mage, I would not be able to immediately do msq
cause enemies are level 25 now
oh yeah okok
By switching job you dont lose the other job btw
you just acquire it
And can switch anytime you feel like it
I see
I can join a different FC in each world?
No
One char can have all the jobs in the game at max lvl
Am I correct in assuming it's best if I create a character on Zodiark so I get an exp bonus?
Can only join fcs on your world
ah
!status Zodiark
Yes
You would have to have a separate character on every world
What does patron deity do, if anything?
Nothing.
If you get married, your deity's symbol appears on a decoration behind the altar in the ceremony.
!status zodiark
That's the most impact it has 
how much is the exp bonus from prefered servers?
100% on EVERYTHING
now none of the double exp worlds are available :c
As a 100% new player, is there an optimal way of lvling? Or should i focus on main quests atm?
!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.
If a server is preferred and you can't get on it, it's because too many people are currently online
Try again later
check it out every hour or something.
@daring turret I started like 5 days ago aswell, I think you should just do Quests and then you can figure out what you wanna do, the games got soo much content for you
hey guys how do you get the Summer Morning Set?
Nice thanks, i think ill just stick to main quests and extra stuff, not in a hurry lol @blazing depot
oh I can trade wet bombard ash for them at limsa?
how does casting glamour works?
like I can give the aesthetic of an other piece to something? can I do it limitless times?
that's awesome!!!
You put the look of 1 item over the other
why didn't I know that before
The only rules are that you cant glamour cross role (ie no glamour tank stuff on healer) and the glamour item has to be lower level than the equipment you're glamouring to
So no glamouring lv80 stuff on lv1 stuff
so the first equip that I'm changing must be higher?
like the piece that is going to be changed must be higher*
The equipment you're using as a glamour has to be lower level than the equipment you're wearing/putting the glamour on
I think it's basically just that both the glamour item and the armor you will wear has to both be wearable
might be easier way to think of it
Basically
Hey everyone!
I’ve been hearing some controversy over duty roulette levelling and which is the most efficient way of doing it
I have the road to 70 buff so every monster gives me 8k xp is it more beneficial for me to clear completely or still speed run?
The xp at the end is the big reward you want
Oh
Quicker you get done, quicker you get that reward and can que for the next dungeon
only a few dungeons early on even have optional rooms.
That to
It's weird early design stuff that got straightened out later.
Yeah I guess thAts true
All dungeons after level 50, you're going in a straight line and killing everything.
So even with that buff it’s better to clear ASAPv
The buff just makes everything you do quicker in terms of xp
And make it so you have to do less runs
Doesn't really change how you go about things, just the fact you only need to do less of them
And you'll be done quicker
So then it would be best interest to clear as fast as possible instead of gathering up the extra mobs even if that’s about 60k xp
Yes, especially if they're out of the way
Like the time you spent going out the way could have been spent queing for the next dungeon
Yeah but it’s just for the levelling roulette
Not necessarily a dungeon after that
But I see that point of view
True
Basically for me at least, if i cant tab to it and hit it with provoke while im pulling mobs, it aint being pulled
how long does it usually take for a server to open up to new characters again?
Provoke farther then let’s say shield lob?
Temporary lock opens and closes based on people on line, best chance is during the night when people sleep
Yes, voke is slightly further range
25y vs 15y
Oh yeah wow
where do i trade phantasmor a dn allegory tomestones? for gear
Ok thanks
need a suggestion: what's the best way to spend centurio hunt seal if already have stacks of tele tickets & capped venture coins?
If I make my new character on a regular world, can I then transfer to a preferred world and still get the 2xp
No
Anyone know why I might get kicked from my own wedding while talking to the guy who helps me get dressed or w/e? I'm not doing this reservation bullshit again and waiting a week to get married in a fucking video game
I submitted a bug report at the support desk but I've never done this before, do I wait for a rep to DM me or just move on with my life I guess? Lol
I mean should I make another reservation still or will the rep possibly be able to sort it out?
Ive never died before and I accidentally exited out whatever message it gave me and im stuck dead, what do i do?
spamming Duty Roulette is a good thing for levelling or once per day is enough ?
The message is still on your screen somewhere. You can click it and respawn just the same
Spamming it no
Once a day is fine though
alright thanks
Hi, new to this channel. Started an AST class the other day, now at lvl 50 and struggling. didnt realise it was so involved! looking for someone who wouldnt mind helping me out with it for a bit
well tell us what you're struggling with
mostly getting enough healing output i think
Are you choosing a sect? Make sure to use synastry as needed
Eseential dignity heals more the lower the target is
Does race clan stats really effect that much?
That said at about 50 you are still lacking some tools that ast has to heal better
No it doesn't @novel orbit
yeah running on Diurnal most of the time but trying to keep the heals up is proving difficult
Whats your gear like
i have the full ironworks gear on atm. best i have got for now
Augmented?
need a suggestion: what's the best way to spend centurio hunt seal if already have stacks of tele tickets & capped venture coins?
whats closest tp to the kobolds rep?
as i said very new to this all, running the main campaign as black mage atm and havent even made it to shadowbringers yet!
Buy some of the cosmetic stuff?@inland scarab
no just standard
also, since i've noticed guide about spending capped poetics, are there one for hunt seals?
yea, got all that long time ago
@lyric warren outer la noscea
@proven shore consider augmenting it, or if you're getting gear above ilvl120 to use some of that too.
It can feel kinda rough on ast early
ok, another silly question then. how do i augment it?
!faq poetics
in fact, i probably need suggestion for all hunt seals/nuts, considering i shud already got all cosmetic stuff
Its in the text guide
ok thanks
i'm not asking about poetic guide, i already knew it as i stated. was asking if there's one for hunt seals
That wasnt for you boar
oh...
I'm trying to answer like 4 peoples questions at once sorry
haha np
To my knowledge there isn't a seals guide
!faq huntseals
Do that in #kupo-bot-spam
There isnt one
But you just tend to spend it on whatever you need mostly.
ah yea, sorry
if u're talking about old grade 6s, they're not really worth selling these days.
at least i can spend allied seals on grade 8 materia with BLU vendor
as for nuts, nowadays spend on that left side upgrade tonic stuff that cost 3k nuts since i got tons of cracked 7s/8s from hunts
Grab some crafting materials?
they're so cheap these days, like below 500 gils each & slow selling
on my server at least
used to sell like 4 digit gils, then i stopped when it reached below 1k
spend on tome gears for upcoming desynth cap if there's one & gotten all. now i just desynth accessories since i'm too lazy to research best way to spend em
oh wait... that's for non weekly tomes. 😅
grab the seal gear for GC seals? or for desynth?
sorry, again just realized telling story for phantasmagoria tomes
Hey guys, I just started Heavensward storyline but I've prrty much just done MSQ all this time. Should I catch up with anything else before moving forward for a better experience? Like hunting logs or anything.
will check hunt nuts npc, got hunt calls atm
Unrelated but this discord is awesome wtf, so organized
you can do the ARR 24-man raid series
they become story relevant later if you haven't done it
you can also consider trying out the Heavensward trials series or doing some mount farming
!faq contentunlock
how long does it take to level any DoL/H to the point at which you start getting Blue Scrips? need them for anima relic weapon :/
here's a list of things that you can do
you need to level them to like 50+ to have access to collectables to earn yellow scrips
if you buy a levekit its faster and only gates your by your leve allowances
Oh cool, the raid series sound interesting if it's becoming story relevant later. I'll check out the faq.
you can also get crystal sand by farming amber-encased vilekin
meanwhile, about that kupo bot: are there huge faq list on web somewhere that i can peruse? scrolling on #kupo-bot-spam just takes too much time to remember & there's really ALOT of faqs there... 😅
i buy a levekit ingame?
there's a list but i don't know that other people have access to it
What's the proper channel to ask for an invite to a decent FC?
levekit? don't think i ever heard of it
i buy a levekit ingame?
yes you can buy levekits. not sure they're still a thing now that ishgard restoration has become popular
kinda reminds me of ff11 crafting kits tho
basically levekits are a full set of turn-in items that will push a crafter class to power level provided you have the leve allowances to turn all those items in
which DoL/H would be the fastest/efficient to level first?
Theres not really a difference between the doh or the dol
If you wanna make gather your own materials you could level dol first though to save some cash
the only thing about DoH is that you're recommended to level them altogether
can leave fishing for last priority btw
oh okay i see, im mainly looking at it because i heard you can turn those blue scrips into crystal sand for relic weapon
Ya fishing is mostly used for culinarian and some alchemy for the most part
What's the proper channel to ask for an invite to a decent FC?
you can try #recruitment-primal or #retired-na-datacenters. But most of the time people look/shout in-game. Decent is a hard metric to gauge.
Sato, you can also just get crystal sand with amber-encased vilekin farming
but leveling those DOL/H just for that doesnt seem that appealingß
ah yeah but dont really like that method haha
btw, now current hunt call are done, checked hunt nut npc & i don't see any crafting mats there. @little swift
doesnt it take very long?
buy primal parts off the market/farm them yourself and turn them in
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/4oqjv0/possibly_the_easiest_way_to_farm_amber_vilekin/ makes it a lot more bearable
It's roughly a 10% chance per leve to find a chest i believe?
i mean for how long you gotta be doing that tho? haha
sorry must have misremembered what was available to purchase @inland scarab 
i guess gear for desynth/GC seals
oh... now i remember amber vilekin. my suggestion: avoid it at all cost. 😅
or riding maps 
coming from bdo, i hate rng XD
again, all cosmetic stuff gotten long time ago 😅
desynth the gear/GC seals then
how exactly does the thing work where you transfer a character from a standard to a preferred world? Does that work on the free trial too?
you can use that for coke
desynth also capped quite long time ago as well... 😅
cokes now very cheap & harder to sell
yea, but by that time, my nuts already capped again. lol
i've been doing hunts like alot lately
i can utilioze my GC seal for the Crystal Sand step?
no that's a different step sato
lol i think rob5 getting confused @ so many queries.
If a lv80 wore lv60 gear to a lv60 dungeon would their stats still be optimal or would they be nerfed into oblivion
no the step is earlier for GC seals
did that
why u wanna do that hikari?
you can also use poetics to trade for crystal sand
this is the most costly method, 600 poetics for some sand
isnt that too much?
i thought its better to use
yeha
thats the one
can you send me that linbk?
link*
thx!
if gc seals kept capping, can buy moonstones to convert for crystal sands as well
wait really?
yea, 5 moonstones for 1 sand
i buy those moonstones from my GC right? any GC rank requirements?
ofc probably more worth selling for gils since it's 1200 gil npc sell tho
second lt rank or higher
oh yeah im second lt
Dont wanna do it just curious
If a lv80 wore lv60 gear to a lv60 dungeon would their stats still be optimal or would they be nerfed into oblivion
@stable hinge optimal stats aren't super important in dungeon runs anyways. level sync will put you somewhere in the correct stat cap range anyways
Thank you
also If I did a lv70 savage raid undersized as a group of lv80s would I still get all the same drops? omega mount specifically
yes drops are the same

omega is from o12s iirc. its not trivialized by the unsync option. i think hello world is still a mechanic that needs to be done correctly
4000 seals for a moonstone isn't terribly worth it
Also patch
yea, like i said if u kept capping gc seals
laughs in infinite seals
lol
I always claim the stuff no one needs in raids and cash in 
u have no idea how many times i'm capping my gc seal in a week, even as captain rank, coz i kept using centurio seals to buy cheap 3.0 gears for gc seals
heck, i can even cap gc seals several times in just a day. lmao
how exactly does the thing work where you transfer a character from a standard to a preferred world? Does that work on the free trial too?
@frozen karma https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/option_service/world_transfer_service/
tl;dr you pay for the transfer and you move, provided its not congested. free trial should not have access to transfers iirc
hence why i was asking best way to spend hunt seals... 😅
if that single day happens to have tons of calls for pre5.0 hunts
At which level I need to be to become a ninja ? Lv. 30 ?
Do you know which Class quest is it ? because i've reached level 30 and i've done the first class job i get after that and I'm on "Cloying Victory" quest.
You have to do them all
It's in order
It will transition into ninja from rogue naturally
Peasants by day, ninja by night
Again, you need the slyph management msq done
Which is 20-25ish
If its not showing then you need more msq done
what I'm supposed to do with old dungeon items?

Desynth them (need lv30 crafters), toss them at the grand company for seals (need second lieutenant rank)
so I remember hearing that my main goal should be getting to cap, but I really like dark knight. Im only like level 6 gladiator rn but would it be okay if I switched to drk as soon as I unlocked it?
i know thats gonna be like 50 hours from now but still
which DoH is easiest for the Ixal quest?
They're equal since they give you the items you need
can I change my hair and its color whenever I want for free?
Its unlocked in limsa upper
Then summoned via a crystal bell
Easily found in inn rooms
Just go to the upper parts, use the aetheryte to go to thr aftcastle
new to the game, 1st toon at 33 and have some progression questions
If you've attuned to everything
@faint flare ugh I don't think so. thanks for the answers tho!
Else just go up the ramp from the aetheryte that has the zone barrier
okay~
oh an other thing. can I be efficient as paladin without using a shield?
shields look bad..
if I start a 2nd job, I assume I would have access to the new guild quest but not the main story quests so how do you makeup the XP
You're required to have a shield but you can glamour it to be invisible
!faq altlvlguide
^ wiz
cool thanks
oh can I make it invisible? I'll try
There's thr Emperors new shield in the gold saucer
I do believe
To turn it invisible
Its a arcade/casino
@fresh dagger you unlock dark knight in heavensward you'll more than likely be far past level 50 when that happens
There's a quest in uldah that takes you to the gold saucer
Called "Ir could happen to you"
so once you are able to unlock it, you'll have to level from 30 up to catch up to MSQ level
@faint flare damn u know everything. thanks!!
Its 100k mgp which isn't thaaat much as you can get alot from challenge logs
okay
for ilya strat are the tethers in hourglass or square?
doesnt matter
Hello everyone. I was wondering how to get the shiny paladin armor from eureka?
The elemental +2 or w/e
How much does it cost to buy the expansions after getting base game?
Is it $60, or is it less than that since you own ARR?
you just need to buy shadowbringers if you own ARR
so i think $40?
yea 40$
not exactly sure but its on the website/steam
think its on sale if you use hte ps4 version
Okay, so I can buy base game now and then upgrade to Stormblood for the same price as buying the complete edition
That's all I wanted to know, thanks
you cant buy stormblood anymore
you have to buy shadowbringers
but yea you can
base gameis 20$ shadowbringers is 40$, complete is 60$
I meant Shadowbringers
then yea
One more question:
If I buy the Steam version, can I still log in with my free trial account?
think they confirmed you can earlier
but if you buy via steam you have to buy all expansions (shadowbringers and any future ones) from steam
Yeah that's fine. Just wanted to know
If I buy the Steam version, can I still log in with my free trial account?
Yup, I did exactly that and everything works fine

so I have a question about crafting classes, is it easy to get them all to 80 or no? I've heard its hard but right now I'm at the lower levels and I do absolutely nothing but buy from the market place and turn in my grand company things. Is this sustainable at a higher level or does the gil price get too high? And do exp requirements get too high for this to work as well?
Its easier now than ever
dumb question, but is GNB's bow shock pronounced bow as in front of ship, or bow as in weapon that shoots arrows?
doesnt that mean omnicrafting is less profitable since more people are cutting into the market?
@agile laurel uhh I'm not entirely sure but in japanese it is
バウショック
Which is Bau shokku
Which leads me to guess its bow like ship not bow like arrow
if it were bow like arrow it would probably be BO- shokku
is there any point in changing GC besides location?
like for collection reasons, it doesn't seem like getting all the armors matters since you can't use them if you're not in that GC
and the furniture can be traded
if you prefer the other gcs glamours, or want to go for the achievement that require all 3 gc bardings
oh hm... the barding... I forgot
@agile laurel also bow shock is an actual term apparently
which is pronounced bow like ship
is melee combat faster than magic combata in terms of channeling speed?
melee combat has no casting time
ohh
apart from certain skills
speedy speed boy then
yeah the only "channel" skill
is samurai Iaijutsu'
but thats intentional
iaijutsu is that thing in anime / martial arts where the dude readies his sword and like concentrates
and then does a single slash
The animation in this scene is seriously so cool!⚡⚡⚡⚡

Okay, so. I’m a returning player, I’m trying to get back into my rotation for my crafting class. If anyone has a level 50 rotation key bind setup they can show me, that’ll be great. Or know where I can find one, just let me know. Thanks.~
Kenshin does it better tho
whats UCOB?
ultimate coil of bahamut
what level dungeon is it?
its an ultimate raid
Im still a sprout idk what that is
its just a really hard duty
am I right in assuming its lv80?
70
Nice
Ultimate raida are the hardest content in the game
when do I unlock it?
And will never be able to be unsynced
or how
iirc it being 70 doesnt help since u cant sync it
Ucob is unlocked when you clear omega 4 Savage and after talking to the wandering minsitral
another question, can you only teleport to a single attuned shard?
I see
or if I attune to all of them I can port on eof my choosing?
I've been trying to do omega 4 savage but no one queues for it :/
oh fug
Always attune to eveey aetheryte you see
duly noted
also most people are likely not going to do want to do omega 4 savage sync'd either
when its easier and faster to it unsync
tbh though
if you're interested in doing ultimates, it would be better to find a group to do it
While using having the fight unlocked already would be easier, finding a group to actually do ultimate is going to be the harder of the two things
what do the extra icons above the LP bar mean?
Probably they're debuffed
oh okay

so im planning to move from the eu to na in the near future irl, ik sub and stuff is region locked but i have the game through steam. So i was wondering what should i do about paying for sub while living in na with an eu account.
I have 5k crysta I'm trying to buy stuff on the mog station I'm clicking pay with crysta but it keeps giving me an error on checkout
I purchased the crysta via PayPal, which went thru and they are in my mog station just cant purchase my items says error.
I can only get one piece of relic from any normal Eden’s raid once for the day, right?
@noble ember whats the error
I2501
@mossy tartan for normal mode of eden's verse, one token per floor
i2501*
Okay, thank you kael!
so i2501 is a very broad error, there's no good one solution. Some common things that have worked for others in the past are: turning off vpn if you're using one, try a different web browser, try mobile data. If none of these work, contact support
anyone else running into 90002 issues?
So far I tried purchasing via my crysta on my phone, and playstation to no avail. Gunna try mobile data/my laptop. If not I'll message support.
how do i unlock "Duty Roulette: level 80 dungeons"? I have expert roulette unlocked but not this one
did you do all the level 80 dungeons?
there are 3 that are part of level 80 roulette
You need Akademia Anyder and Twinning. They unlock from blue side quests. One at the ground level of Eulmore and one in Crystarium.
okay yeah ive completed the 3 lvl 80's but i havent done akademia and twinning
ty! ill look those up right now
when does the fashion report end? on Tuesday?
yes
ok thanks
what are the drop rates for raid mounts?
Savage mounts are guaranteed
im talking about like the kamuys
is it like 10% or like 1%
Probably closer to 10% if anything
How do I Erp and where do I go for it
I need money
Or should this question go in #endgame-lounge
how i enter into forgotten springs ?
is there anything special that I get if I finish all ARR beast tribes?
You get a additional quest that combines the beast tribes and rewards a face mask for glamour
ooh nice 🙂
@cerulean pewter you can either just ride south through high level mobs or go into the red labyrinth and talk to an NPC there and he'll take you to Forgotten Springs pretty much
is there a point of repeating levequests besides exp?
@white sinew you can possibly get it from retainers but yes that is the only real way to grind it out
Well XP for crafting and gathering is the only reason you really do leves
ah thanks
why is it when i heal as ast, it feels like the heals are slightly lagged behind
latency

@fresh dagger
10%
Depends on what the server condition is
Where i can download addons ?
Usually servers are just closed since there are too many people are logged in at once so they'd open up at less busy times of the day @novel orbit
Congested have to be manually opened up by the devs and takes longer but IIRC there aren't any congested servers right now
is anyone here who can lvl a bit with me and introduce me into the game? started yesterday with the game, playing gladiator tank, have WoW experience
There is a big log you can go up for, it's on the area above you kitten
^
Log is around the big x
Massive root
Add-ons are a weird area of Terms of Service of so long as they aren't cheating and aren't NSFW it's okay to use but just don't talk to people about it
You've got ACT which is a DPS parser
the only add-ons that exist for the game are UI and Model/Texture replacements, otherwise, you need ACT for the vast majority of them
Gshade and other add ons to improve graphics
Famfrit is conjested
Also how i can see when i have enough achivements to turn in for mount
Act stands for active combat tracker
Talk to Jonathas and see how many points you have. IIRC there isn't an easy way to see how many achievement points you have?
lol no
Labyrinth needs at least 5 people
Per alliance
Not even
For the atomos
Before the 2nd bosss
Yup, because of the add phase.
4 players on platforms 1 that attack it.
@faint flare I failed my mission..
That would be at least 15
I did the quest, but I can't find the aesthetician!
barely worth desyncing at that point
Depends on how bad ancient flare is on final boss
^ in an innroom you can find at the city adventurer guilds/bars
There's a innkeeper at the aftcastle
okay I found a shard
🤔 a what?
go to the inn
Crystal BELL
Crystal bell
click the barber shop looking thing
Interact with the shard though
Those are fast travel points
Nice to have if you don't have it unlocked yet
yes I unlocked it now
no
my crafters are level 60-70 with level 55 crafting gear. Should I upgrade if I'm going to level with ishgard restoration from now on?
penalties are only if you leave voluntarily iirc
^ obviously xD
Can i just change my class? I started archer but wanna try monk, should i make a new character or just go to the guild? How does changing classes work?
Go to the guild after doing your lv10 class quest

oh inn is the room!
What Vinyl said
Then you can pick up the new jov and equip its weapon
Just go to the pugilist guild in Ul'dah after your level 10 archer quest
Not in the hairdresser
cause I'd like to change but I don't wanna lose the one I have now
I'd like to come back at it in the future
save a screenshot?
You'll have to remember it
oh okay
I always just write it down
if I pin it won't the pin remain in the future?
is it possible that a lizard had an haircut that as cat I can't have?
or am I just not finding it lol
yes, every race has their own set of racial hairstyles
The first two rows or so are the racial hairstyles
some races have the same styles
there's also unlockable hairstyles that every race can use except viera and hrothgar
okay ty!
My friends and I recently hit level 50 and finished The Ultima Weapon. We got some tomestones of poetics and see we can buy ironworks gear with them. I read we can upgrade the gear as well. Is this stuff worth farming for or will it be hopelessly invalidated once we reach HW content?
it's worth it
You don't really need to farm it though
the augmented gear will be good through most of HW
You get so much from the optional dungeons and stuff and mandatory MSQ content
yeah, the game throws Poetics at you when you first hit an expansion's level cap
Cool.
just pick it up as you go
Also
Will do. Thanks.
And the relic weapon isn’t worth the investment is it?
Yes; get ironworks gear. No; don’t farm the tomestones. Do the ARR 24 raid. Ignore the relic weapon.
yea
Awesome. Thanks!
Pretty much
Oh
Also do the hard mode fights for Ifrit and co because MSQ is locked behind that after a point
Just saves you the hassle of hitting that wall and going "ugh"@dapper willow
(they aren't actually hard)
I just have to finish the hard mode fight? Even if I’m not on the quest?
The MSQ requires that you complete Titan (Hard) at a certain point.
Fights but yeah just do them whenever but just remember that MSQ will get locked behind it later on
Just flat out.
👍🏻
Where i can find "auction house" ?
It's called the Market Board. It looks like a bulletin board in any major city's market.
Is this right for relic weapons? Arr: zodiac, hw: anima, and what is stormblood's?
eureka weapons
Eureka
I cant get into the world I need, should i just go into a different one and workd change later?
there's still people who do eureka
you can easily still get the weapons just by using the eureka logs
Okay
@novel orbit if you don't mind waiting, you can try again at a different time, ideally like middle of the night when no one else is on
I mean that I cant create a new character in that server
Yeah
If your heart isn't set on that server, you can join a different one and as long as it's in the same data center, you can play with people on that other server
And you can visit it
Umm. How exactly does one "unsync" a raid?
Where is market board in uldah ?
click the cogwheel at the top of the duty finder window, select "undersize party" option, and then queue as normal @shrewd nimbus
marketboard in uldah is in the sapphire road exchange
Does NQ Oddly Specific Latex have any use? I know HQ is used to skysteel botanist upgrades but wondering if I should just vendor the NQ ones
vendor em
Will do. Thanks!
@twilit arch so when you do that, and people join the party that are level 80, their item level will no longer be reduced?
yes, they'll be lvl 80 and whatever ilvl they currently are
sapphire avenue, my bad
its in the steps of thal
uh
maybe i'm misremembering. it's not in the section with the aetheryte
it does have an aetheryte
an aethernet, possibly
so hard to find AH 😄
but not the section withthe main aetheryte
aethernet shard, whatever
found it ty
yes, you're correct its not in the area with the main aetheryte
mounts =/= minions
AFAIk you cannot see a list of mounts
your only option is to use an outside source like gamerescape
any mounts that can be sold on the marketboard is under the miscellany section iirc
but there's not that many
try searching for whistle or horn
you'd have to sort through some animal drops most likely but check the descriptions
Yes they are expensive for me xd
most tend to be
Dhalmel should be the cheapest one
Im a beginner to ffxiv and I've chosen lalafell gladiator but ive seen people say that isnt a good combination should I be worried?
play whatever race and class combo you want
likely a case of 'haha lalas small'
you can be all classes and jobs on one character
and racial stats dont make that much of a difference
Oh thanks for the help
Yeah....
I....I'm shocked that someone would even jokingly make that joke to a new person
people are dumb, slow on the uptake, malicious or all of the above
combined with a fact in some games it does matter somewhat
tbh in certain games
model size makes it easier to click on people so it matters for pvp lol
not if you play controller

what use is there for monster parts in crafting? I can't seem to find how to turn any skins into leather apart from animal skins
meats and stuff are used in culinarian
and bits and bobs such as yarzon legs are used in alchemy
sinew is in armor too
Level up leatherworker for the other skins
and used to make glues
Animal skins are the lowest level one
where is the sack of nuts vendor?
Crystallium, Northwest of the aetheryte, outdoor, next to where you grab hunt bill
Aetheryte, go west, once you are outdoor, go north, and look at your right
closest aetheryte is Temenos Rookery
Go to the room on your left and do adventurer squadron stuff
That is how you rank up here on in
aha tyvm 😄
By doing the flagged missions and stuff
as soon as I hit level 80, where do I get good gear besides the role quests? The wiki says that ronkan stuff requires goetia tomestones, but currency shows that it's discontinued?
phantasmagoria replaced goetia as the starting gear
so use that to buy deepshadow in eulmore
ah okay ty
where do you find out what happened with cylva
||final role quest||
huh
where it at
The bar
its a
in the crystarium
In Cryatarium
Do newer classes get harder as new patches bring them more abilities?
Is there any item in the game retainers cannot bring back on quick ventures?
savage gear
Kinda not really kata, they cut and streamlime things and new abilities build onto rotations
And mounts
oh
ultimate gear
Also it's not like newer jobs are any different from other jobs
They have the same amount of skills
Ish
Like im wondering if dancers rotation will get longer
and i wanna say current end game extreme trial gear can't be gotten until the next expac
It just gets built on with ways to get procs via flourish, Techincal step for eztra.buff, saber dance for an extra damage skill
Like player fantasias
Your base rotation is still the same at 80
Just with the new abilities thrown in here and there
And pretty much used on cooldown
Are dancers like painfully easy? I like the looks but I am afraid ill get bored
They are definitely on the simplier side

With all your procs it does try to keep your attention
So are there much easier classes?
yes
Red mage is also pretty simple
where to farm gear to hit ilvl 430 im at 419
I just want a class where the difference between a pro and a fairly new player is massively apparent
samurai
