Is there any way to make /dance loop indefinitely?
frozen karma
ig i get lvl20 and then change class back to lvl1 do i get to keep my mount?

Yes

Indefinitely no, but you can make it somewhat long with a macro
Only /dance is not looped btw the other ones all loop

i could technically go on hunt trains all day long, but i seem to be limitted by the centurio hunt and their offered hunt trains, are other methods to attend other hunt trains?
*srtarted attending hunt trains 1-2 days ago
green pagoda
can some1 explain to me triple-cast on BM?
why would i want 3 insta casts when all my skills share the cd and i have to wait 2 secs after the cast anyway
not bc of the casttime, but bc of the cooldown of all skills...
hoary storm
Try move and cast đ
green pagoda
so its no burst or dmg boosting skill, but more of a mobility skill
i dont want to move anyway, bc of lines
hoary storm
You will have to move for mechanics
green pagoda
ofc
hoary storm
So its a really convinient tool that helps you keep attacking and moving at the same time
faint flare
Triple cast is also a dps gain when used on fire 4
Due to fire 4 cast time being longer than the gcd
Ofc massive gain when used in flares in aoes
signal rover
If you accidentally delete the level 1 weapon how do you go about getting a new one?
faint flare
Buy from vendors
faint flare
A vendor in gridina should sell one
obsidian patio
@tardy tendon hunt trains whenever they happen, and then most likely FATEs or level 80 dungeons
signal rover
That name is obnoxious.
obsidian patio
I'd say level 80 dungeons if you don't care about getting specific ones
tardy tendon
I'd say level 80 dungeons if you don't care about getting specific ones
@obsidian patio i'm only looking for crit and dh
faint flare
Do hunt trains then to buy them
Can also buy them via pixie beast tribe currency
Can also spam levelling roulette as a 70+ tank (or whatever roll is adventure in need)
For the cracked clusters to buy them
Hunt trains is probably best bet

I want to set a macro on my mouse that one of the side buttons acts as the Alt key. Just so I can have an easier time doing my rotation
Is that against ToS?
wintry chasm
That should be fine
It's not a macro that does multiple button presses
Which IIRC is the thing that the ToS gets upset about regarding 3rd party macros

once you complete the intro bit can you properly do the story with somoene? Or is it completely made for solo play?
hoary storm
Its mostly solo, you can go around with someone doing the exact same thing, sometimes youll be separated for solo instances and sometimes there will be dungeons that you can run together
fresh oasis
is there a setup i can use the whole way from lvl 35-50 on paladin? like lvling items or smth?
obsidian patio
if you mean a single set of gear i wouldn't recommend it, tanks take the most damage out of any party member so keeping their gear as up to date as possible makes things a lot easier.
grab whatever equipment you can from running dungeons and fill any slots that are falling behind with NQ gear bought from vendors for the most part.

Hey so I just came back to the game and I'm missing my chocobo

hybrid fjord
and I can't enter the housing areas to get to Housing Enthusiast
wintry chasm
open coral
@hybrid fjord Missing? What level MSQ are you at?

hybrid fjord
anyone I just wanna get in the area of the houses
zinc orbitBOT
hybrid fjord
right now im at the ferry skipper and I can't enter houses? it's been a while lol
open coral
If youâve done the side quests, then you can access housing (for cities youâve done the quests for) via the Aethernet
hybrid fjord
huh, I think I have
hoary storm
Go to limsa/uldah/gridania/kugane main aetherye from there you can teleport to the housing area
hybrid fjord
it doens't seem like there's an option for me
twilit arch
Which ferry skipper are you talking to
open coral
Which city are you at?
hybrid fjord
gridania
twilit arch
because if you're in gridania, then no you haven't done the side quest to unlock the aetheryte travel
hybrid fjord
i probably need to I guess
twilit arch
the ferry skipper to lavender beds is in central shroud, south of bentbrench
twilit arch
don't need to do the side quest to access the housing district, it just unlocks the aetheryte/ferry skipper in gridania
hybrid fjord
wait so, how do I enter then? do I need to own house to enter?
I see the list thing
twilit arch
select a ward and then enter
open coral
Check your quest log to see if youâve completed the quest âThereâs No Place Like Home (Lavender Beds)â
And yeah, as Kael said
hybrid fjord
ok
twilit arch
also the quest is called "where the heart is (lavender beds)"
open coral
Right
hybrid fjord
doesn't look like I've completed it
frozen karma
so if the story is mostly solo, does playing together with friends properly just start in the end game then?
open coral
Make sure youâre looking under the right category
@frozen karma you can do instances with friends during the msq
frozen karma
right now every time it says it has to be a solo instance
hybrid fjord
thx team I think I figured it out lol
faint flare
They mean dungeons
open coral
Yes
open coral
Dungeons/raids = instances, sorry
Youâll get access to your first at level 15 in the msq âItâs probably Piratesâ
Youâll get another two quickly thereafter, then about one every 3-5 levels afterwards in the msq
You can otherwise group with your friends to complete any msq objective which do not involve a solo instance (indicated by an aurora around the quest npcâs feet)

what gear should i be aiming for on lv80 miner? do i just buy them off MB?
obsidian patio
If you donât care about endgame gathering the i430 stuff is enough
barren flax
if i do care about that?
faint flare
You'll get facet and overmeld it
faint flare
Gearing is typically dwarven > facet unmelded > scrips > facet overmelded
barren flax
so i should just buy facet set off MB then work on scrip then overmelding?
faint flare
You would ignore scrip entirely and focus on getting materoa
slate arrow
I'd say save your gil and get scrip gear if you absolutely need to get geared up
The next patch coming in a month or so has a new tier of crafted gear
faint flare
Though with the cap.in like a month and a half, maybe want to settle woth scrip and wait for next patch
barren flax
i just hit lv80, so im still using lv76 gear

dwarven mythril HQ should be reasonably cheap on the MB
so use that to hold you over for now

So is the 485 Relic weapon with 5 melds better than the regular Crystarium weapon?
leaden ginkgo
For Sam for example?
faint flare
Crystarium is slightly better on average
crimson crystal
@warped nest ah that was it. Thanks! What's the max level difference, for the future?
warped nest
Crystallium is 490 as is, 500 if you can augment it
There is not max level difference
If the equip level of the fashion piece is higher, then you just can't glamour it to something with lower equip level
crimson crystal
Gotcha, thanks
warped nest
If you have a lvl 50 i120 armor and want to make it look like lvl 50 i130, you can, because they are both lvl 50... But you should probably just wear the i130
That's the only more unusual case (gears at lvl 50, 60, 70)
warped nest
Weapon Damage is the most important stats with weapons
leaden ginkgo
ty ty
warped nest
The 5 ilvl difference should reflect on the weapon damage too
hoary storm
Whats the math behind weapon dmg?
faint flare
With relic vs crystarium is depends on the substat spread as poor substats can bring it down enough for relic to just barely beat it
obsidian patio
Balance probably knows if anything
faint flare
Like for tanks, the difference between relic vs crystarium is like a few dps points

@deft quiver grand company currency for the Maelstrom GC
faint flare
Though it does have the damage calculations so đ¤ˇââď¸
deft quiver
is there a guide on how companies work? I see theres a lot of ranks and stuff they sell
obsidian patio
Not particularly, ranking up is pretty simple and most of the things they sell are outdated crafting materials
warped nest
They do offer okay gears for leveling from 1-50, so if you are sick of looking like a NPC bystander, at least you can look like a themed NPC with GC gears
Some of the items, while obsolete like Wynne said, do have decent GC-seal to Gil ratio, so you can buy them with GC seal and sell them to NPC store owner for gils
deft quiver
Oh ok
I keep asking a lot of question, and i hope im not annoying anyone, but i was wondering what are other jobs useful for? My friend is currently working on fishing, and ive seen a lot of other things while exploring and doing quests.
warped nest
Crafting and gathering is highly optional
next wind
how do I mine hidden ores? Does this mean I need to find the hidden node location or it's more to it?
warped nest
Crafting classes produces gears for different jobs at the same time, but they rely on each other to supply the necessary materials.
For example, to make a staff for a White Mage, a carpenter might need gemstone from a goldsmith and a catalyst from a alchemist
faint flare
Hidden items show up rarely when you check a node
next wind
okay thanks
warped nest
You don't need to deplete a node for it to refresh
You just need to check other nodes in the area, then loop back to a node
It will refresh and might open up a hidden item
next wind
oh okay so I could just run around checking them until the hidden ore pops up?
nice thanks
faint flare
Yes you just cycle around the nodes in a circle

You can set things in glamour plates from the armoire

Guys, I need to ask something. Is Mogstation gonna charge me auto-renewal through my Steam wallet? Before asking this, I did my research and checked everywhere in Mogstation and in Steam to stop auto-renewal. I don't see that option anywhere on my Mogstation. I also have to say, in the Steam payment method, it is nowhere to be seen either. I do not have any visa details. If I click on renew button on steam from steam wallet, it will take me in to two payment options, auto-renewal and one time only. But that's it. I am getting the days warning left each time i log in to the game, but not looking forward to return to it, especially when if the renewal happens under my nose. Any way to check this for sure?
hollow horizon
Which sever do I choose
remote lintel
well it gives you the option to have auto renew or one time payment?

If you dont see the option i wouldn't think its on. I auto renew via crysta and i get a email saying payment is going to be taken soon

Relax and remember that you don't need to be perfect

do full party duties so you have another healer/tank
to get used to it
also healing and tanking really aren't as hard as they look

the act of healing itself isn't all that stressful
you have to find a balance of doing dmg and healing

also white mage is the easiest healer

really strong aoe, use it whenever it's off CD
only leave it when you know a raidwide attack is coming

from 52-75, they primarily are a free Cure 2 with essentially a 30 second cd, up to 3 charges

When you are in combat, your job gauge will build up over time, once it is 30s, a lily will bloom. Lilies are used for those two Afflatus spells
forest laurel
at level 74 you'll get another attack called afflatus misery

You can have up to 3 lilies, but for efficiency sake, you should not keep it at 3 lilies for too long
forest laurel
using 3 lilies will create a blood lily, which you can use on afflatus misery for some decent dmg
modest birch
I rarely manage to get to 3 lilies, generally in that time there's at least one tank buster or raid wide that Assize isn't enough for
vague sail
I will likely forget all of this by the time I reach the 70âs lol, but thanks for your advice
forest laurel
nah you'll most likely remember it lmao
after all you're really close to unlocking assize and lilies so
modest birch
what I do like about the class is that each skill you unlock, as you unlock it, immediately can make sense for where to fit in
remote lintel
a lot of classes in this game are pretty self explanatory
just that optimizing them takes some learning
warped nest
I will likely forget all of this by the time I reach the 70âs lol, but thanks for your advice
@vague sail drop by and ask us again when you don't remember what's what
More than happy to help
vague sail
Thanks
vague sail
And yeah the optimization is what Iâm usually thinking about. I make sure to read the tool tips, but with some skills that offer buffs and things itâs sometimes hard for me to tell when I need to use them in my rotation
remote lintel
there's a lot of good video guides for the classes
on youtube
white mage isn't that difficult to optimize from what I've seen
it's the more straightforward healer
forest laurel
yeah
it's by far the simplest healer, with its main """gimmick""" being big boi heals
solemn delta
Just a quick one about 50 Monk. With Dragon Kick Bootshine becomes a non positional move? You can just essentially fight from the flank?
faint flare
No
remote lintel
nooooo
forest laurel
no.
remote lintel
bootshine is absolutely a positional
forest laurel
dragon kick makes bootshine stronger.
remote lintel
you MUST hit the butt
solemn delta
I just tested and damage was same it wasn't critting
faint flare
Dragon kick just makes the next bootshine do more damage

Kick that butt

ok that's where youre confused
you CANNOT use bootshine right after DK
because
DK puts you in a different form
raw solstice
dragon kick is an alternative 1 in your 1-2-3
solemn delta
You need Opo for crit
raw solstice
compared to bootshine
faint flare
Well you can but you.lose the opo opo buff it gets
raw solstice
so you do dragon kick one cycle, bootshine the next cycle
solemn delta
I see
raw solstice
doing it this way, you get both the form bonus as well as take advantage of leaden fist buff
solemn delta
Yeah you need Opo for crit
warped nest
Never use monk weapon skill unless it is glowing with yellow line
vague sail
I donât think I learned that until later, but then I left monk to level dancer lol
remote lintel
bootshine doesnt glow

So I just started and re-rolled a character onto a server where a couple co-workers play. I then realized that it was on a server where I don't have "The Path to 70" buff though. Is that a big deal? If I'm just prioritizing the MSQ and not any side-quests I'm wondering if I should go back to my original character and just "visit" their world when we play together if it's a major drawback.
silver ruin
no
warped nest
Road to 70 makes it easier to level Multiple jobs
faint flare
The xp buff is nice for staying ahead of the curve but no were near mandatory
warped nest
If you play 1 job, it barely matters
vague sail
Wait whatâs road to 70
inland sparrow
okay cool, there was already a tidal wave of new info so I didn't notice that until I had already started playing a bit haha
left cedar
So my friend story skipped and doesn't have the aether compass somehow
How do you get it?
warped nest
It is in your key item section
left cedar
They say it's not in there
inland sparrow
It's basically double xp I think for quests until you're lv70 @vague sail
faint flare
No if you skip you need to pick one up
warped nest
Let's see
remote lintel
double exp for everything
forest laurel
road to 70 is a buff that lasts for around 90 days if you start on a preferred server
it's double xp for EVERYTHING you do
warped nest
Not exactly
remote lintel
almost everything
solemn delta
Road to 70 is HUGE if you want to level multiple jobs
vague sail
Oh I guess that doesnât apply to me anymore?
faint flare
Either at forgotten knight or Rhalgars reach at the tent were ||Lyse|| is
solemn delta
And crafts / gatherers
faint flare
For a new compass
warped nest
Road to 70 persist until the server is no longer preferred AND your character is older than 90 days
left cedar
Either works?
faint flare
Either works
left cedar
Thanks!
lime quarry
Can you switch to a preferred server?
warped nest
If a server is preferred for 6 months after you make a character, you still get the buff
No
remote lintel
no @lime quarry
solemn delta
I started a new char I had a 50 WAR and WHM with ARR completed
faint flare
I personally like rhalgars for getting my compass tbh
solemn delta
Great choice don't regret it
remote lintel
i mean you can
warped nest
You can switch, but the buff is given to new character made in the preferred workd
vague sail
How can I tell if my server is preferred
remote lintel
but no buff
solemn delta
It says at top
vague sail
I just joined one my friends were in lol
lime quarry
Man I just started last week, wish I had known! I'm already almost 30
vague sail
Well I guess Iâd notice if I had the buff
forest laurel
it has a star when selecting the world during character creation
warped nest
After you made a character, you will choose a world, world marked with a star is preferred
remote lintel
solemn delta
Long as same data center doesn't really mean bugger all what server your on
remote lintel
^ or this
solemn delta
Unless your anal about seeing your friend in game lol
My entire static is across about 3 servers
vague sail
If I was on a different server I would still be able to see them though?
faint flare
You can world visot
remote lintel
if theyre on a different data center you cannot
solemn delta
No unless you world visit
faint flare
To their server
solemn delta
But you lose free company buffs (not a huge deal)
vague sail
The only preferred one isnât even available for new characters so I guess it doesnât matter
solemn delta
And you can't sell items on MB on other servers only drawbacks I recall
vague sail
I also donât want to lose my FC apartment lol
faint flare
You wont lose the apartment
vague sail
Hmm
solemn delta
Do you want to try all the classes and level them fast
faint flare
World visit is just temporarily visiting another world
vague sail
I am leveling multiple classes rn
inland sparrow
oh wait...I'm super new, but I think I'm overthinking this because I can actually just take my "preferred" world character, and start learning the other class I wanted and visit my friends server. That's actually amazing!
remote lintel
even if you level multiple classes its not that big of a deal with armory bonus
remote lintel
i don think road to 70 persists on world visits
solemn delta
I don't believe this would be possible without road to 70
faint flare
I believe it does
inland sparrow
time to experiment, and I'll report back haha
silver ruin
its definitely possible
solemn delta
I play 16 hours a day and purely focus on leveling?
silver ruin
armory bonus + potd makes leveling easy
its 100% bonus for potd
from 1-70
50% from 71-80
vague sail
I will look into this more
lime quarry
Should I reroll onto a new server?

yea that
solemn delta
How would someone be able to level faster than me even if they had a static leveling group
silver ruin
guide above
solemn delta
I don't believe it's possible
silver ruin
for 1-70, can spam trsuts/roulettes etc for 71-80
remote lintel
the point is that you can still level relatively fast even without the road to 70
so its whatever
solemn delta
All I'm saying is, it's worth making a new char if you haven't invested much time into your current
And plan on leveling multiple jobs
lime quarry
I'm level 30, đŹ
vague sail
Tbh I just need to get over my tank/healer hang up and spam dungeons to level lol
lime quarry
haven't leveled anything else yet
silver ruin
tank/healer hang up?
vague sail
Oh you have to make an entirely new character for this??
silver ruin
ye
solemn delta
Yes
vague sail
Oh nope not doing that lol
lime quarry
Yeah
lime quarry
I wanna do all the crafting and stuff too
solemn delta
If so I would absolutely make a new char
silver ruin
does road to 70 apply to crafting/gathering or just combat classes?
remote lintel
there's a place you unlock at lvl 60 where you can level crafters and gatherers at lightning speed with no buff needed @lime quarry
solemn delta
I did it with 2 50s all ARR content done
vague sail
I feel too far in to make a new character
silver ruin
at level 60??
remote lintel
yes
little swift
does road to 70 apply to crafting/gathering or just combat classes?
@silver ruin applies to everything
solemn delta
Yeah that's why I'm leaving my crafters for now
vague sail
Catchunks what are you playing as now?
silver ruin
thought it was just combat classes, thanks
lime quarry
Conjurer, I'm 29 as we speak
solemn delta
And I find dungeons are just as fast as potd
inland sparrow
fyi that buff does follow you across worlds.
solemn delta
Even with buff
little swift
its not the end of teh world to not have road to 70
solemn delta
Of course not
silver ruin
wait road to 79? thought it was 70
remote lintel
LOL
solemn delta
Many people have invested 100s of days into their chars
little swift
crafters are a joke to level now even without it
silver ruin
^
solemn delta
But i had 2 50s
silver ruin
does it stack with armory bonus?
solemn delta
And I was paying to skip to ShB
remote lintel
yes
silver ruin
wow
little swift
it stacks with armory, aetheryte earring, brand new ring, food, etc
solemn delta
Everyone is different
remote lintel
i mean if you paid to skip the whole story then ofc
you would want it
for people who level with the story its not a big deal
solemn delta
I think i actually got to the point where I needed ARR post
And thought fuck this im catching up with my mates
remote lintel
yeah thats like 2/3 of the story
little swift
solemn delta
Yeah some love the story some skip it each to their own

I do recommend trying to make a A9S farm party though for Anima light, @smoky onyx
If you can
It is significantly faster
remote lintel
how fast for a 4-8 party?
warped nest
With good Dps, all you need to do are dodge chunk falling from the ceiling and hide behind those chunk for a line of sight room wide AOE
With 6-8 lvl 70 players in Stormblood, only takes around 3 minutes in and out, iirc
remote lintel
jeez

And some vanity stuff like emotes, mounts etx
wheat hazel
Oh woww
smoky onyx
I got sold 2 pagos shirts for a almost 2 mil
wheat hazel
Can you explain briefly how it works? Progression wise
slate arrow
tl;dr you get synced to 70 and your elemental level is set to 1
you progress by getting up to certain levels to do "sidequests" from krile
warped nest
Elemental Level is basically your power level in Eureka
You earn crystals and what not from killing stuffs and doing fate
slate arrow
for levels, you only have two good sources and that's good old fashioned grinding or the challenge log
warped nest
These crystal are what you use to make stuff
wheat hazel
Interesting okay and I seen there are different versions of Eureka like anemos and pagos I believe how do you get from one to the other
slate arrow
progression
they're seperate zones entirely
for each one you have to queue in by talking to rodney
you can't directly travel to each zone
wheat hazel
So just through leveling up you can get to the next zone? Or you need to follow a quest
faint flare
Quest
slate arrow
you need to do a quest yes
wheat hazel
Ahh okay that makes sense then I was looking online couldnât find any answers loool
In the Anemos does it have good glamour stuff too?
rich bay
@wheat hazel
ELv 17 Anemos > 35 Pagos > 50 Pyros > 60 Hydatos
Every zone has a amount of quests, the final quests are on those levels.
Anemos does have nice glamour too in the lockboxes yes. It also has a barding and a mount.
And you can upgrade the AF3 gear to make it dyable in Anemos by fully upgrade it.
wheat hazel
Thatâs awesome found something to keep me busy for a while then haha thank you!
rich bay
IF you really want to get cool gear you can also aim for this @wheat hazel :
That armor is from the final Eureka Zone, Eureka Hydatos.
You buy the base set in Pyros and upgrade it in Hydatos.
wheat hazel
Iâm assuming that takes forever right xD looks awesome though
rich bay
You do need to level to ELv 55 at least and farm Logo's actions, you need to unlock all 56 to buy the glowing armor.
@wheat hazel yes, it takes a while but if you press trough it is done in 2 to 3 weeks.
rain seal
Hey i was wondering, is it still possible to queue for "coil of bahamut" or "Laberynth of the Ancients" or does no one do these anymore?
Both i've tried (as tank) have had multi hour queues going no where
wheat hazel
@rich bay as long as itâs shorter than levelling all jobs to 80 I think Iâll survive đđ
rich bay
@rain seal
LotA is done often via 24-man roulette, maybe you are queueing at the wrong hour. Also there are only 3 tanks needed for 24-mans
Coils are only done via PF, mostly unsynced these days.
rain seal
OK so at least laberynth is in a roulette and should be possible then? and just give up on bahamut?
rich bay
You can PF it, there are always players around that like to help you unsync.
rain seal
Really? i just want to see the story. I can't speedrun it or like that
remote lintel
unsync is Speedruning
rich bay
T9 can give problems solo.
But T1-T5 can be solo'ed if you have i480 gear. @rain seal
rain seal
i am not max level
lime sphinx
so huh where do i store my Aettir lux ? doesnt go into armoire ...
rich bay
@lime sphinx , give to retainer
lime sphinx
bruhhh armoire is so useless man
rich bay
@rain seal, ask other players to help you unsync , for story.
@lime sphinx , Armoire is only for mogstation stuff, seasonal event gear, Veteran rewards gear and special event gear.
Completed Relics can't put in the Armoire and the Glamour dresser, so only retainers can savekeep it for you.

nope

remote lintel
replicas that look exactly the same as the relic?
iron oracle
Yes
remote lintel
how do you get those?
slate arrow
buy them from the replica vendor
drake for zodiac, replica node for anima, drake (eureka) for eureka
slate arrow
for zodiac you need to have done up to the zodiac step i think
anima you just need the 3rd or 4th step once to unlock all previous ones, even on subsequent weapons
not sure about eureka

the zodiac questline in hrystmill yes

Zodiac - arr
Anima - heavensward
Eureka/elemental - stormblood
Resistance - Shadowbringers
slate arrow
and besides zodiac and anima theres no relationship between relics
mossy tartan
Relationship as in requirements for the next quests?
faint flare
Yes, you can do any relic without doing the previous expansion relic
obsidian patio
The only relation zodiac and anima have is that you can use a completed zodiac weapon to skip the first step of an anima weapon
But this is only worth doing if you already had a completed zodiac in the first place
mossy tartan
Also, which weapon is that green angelic staff?
faint flare
Thats just the first of many, many grindy as all hell steps

how do you calculate the total potency of this spell?

Hello, would getting the expansions later rather than up front hurt my character development when I sign up for the first time? Currently tight financially (unexpected expense and trying to get it refunded atm) and is debating whether or not to get the complete set or just stay with the starter at first.
Iâve only recently finally got a proper pc built and now Iâve asked a few friends for MMORPG recommendations and multiple of them recommended FFXIV, hence why Iâm wanting to try it out.
latent prism
yeah i'm still on 480 relic armor so i'm stacked on piety lol
faint flare
Dots tick every 3seco ds
mossy tartan
Finally found the next quest âup in armsâ thank you for the help!
nova umbra
so only a potency of 200?
faint flare
Then multiply the numver od ticks by the dot potency + initial on hit Damage
nova umbra
seems pretty weak considering it has a channel time
obsidian patio
@mossy tartan sindri Lux, which is WHMâs anima weapon when fully complete
faint flare
Its 220
20 on hit amd 200 dot damage
Its much higher than ruin
Plus dots deal damage while you're doing other stuff
rich bay
@mossy tartan
There is a quest relation to the Resistance Relics in ShB, the Return to Ivalice alliance raids.
You need to complete the 3 24-mans first to start the ShB one. (The reason is that the ShB relic story has a very important NPC that is introduced in the Ivalice 24-man story.)
faint flare
Alot of arcanist/summoner damage comes from their dots
mossy tartan
Still didnât finish those 24 mans, they seem too difficult. Iâll settle for ARR/HW
mossy tartan
Hmm, wait. It says âin order to receive the quest âup in armsâ you need to have a zenith relic weapon equippedâ?
rich bay
I advice to do the ShB 24-man too. @mossy tartan
Because you can get various gear from it, but also the i490 gear upgrade tokens in 5.3
mossy tartan
Iâll do it when Iâve improved in dodging, Iâm still falling a bit even in e4+
Especially fulmination

did you augment thryus into zenith
mossy tartan
nope
slate arrow
the steps are slightly convoluted
mossy tartan
where can I do that?

you need to buy 3x Thavnairian Mist from poetics
and then chuck them and the weapon into the forge next to drake

small vault
I have multiple tank classes that share the same gear set, but I want to use the paladin class gear as a glamour. Of course, when switching classes the glamour no longer applies (fine, it's in a glamour plate). What I want to know is, if I dye the underlying item (not the glamour), then apply the glamour, then have that glamour removed by switching to a different class or use a dispeller, will the dye still be on the item?
polar flame
wait what am i supposed to do after reaching lvl 3 and talking to the tiny dude in eureka?
faint flare
Go in the direction krile said and find a intractable
obsidian patio
@small vault items lose their dye when you apply a glamour onto them

you could just have a 2nd glam plate linked to your other tank gear sets (assuming you aren't just swapping the weapon manually)

okay and i wasnt supposed to receive a weapon or a quest for it

Do I have to get all the 12 âatmasâ? In order to unlock the next quest?
twilit arch
basically you talk to krile at those levels and she gives you a rough idea of where the confluence is
faint flare
The weapon you upgrade in eureka is the weapon from your lv70 job quest
mossy tartan
They drop from any FATE in the designated area?
twilit arch
just have to get one from each of the zones (make sure you are in the appropriate zone)
any fate in that zone

sceavan magitek grimoire im guessing isnt that weapon

Honestly the drop rate for ATMA arenât that bad anymore
My worst dry streak was like 6-7 last time I did them
faint flare
The lv70 job weapon you can rebuy from the calamity salvager

On average, I take it that an atma should drop between 5-10 FATEs?
polar flame
well damn gotta go find that dude and hope i can buy my weapon

Maybe a bit less, but yeah
I think I got 4 or 5 atma from the first 3 fates of their zones
