Level 50 gear only goes up to iLevel 135
molten spruce

warped nest
You can keep low level gears as glamours

Its also last tier content@lilac mulch
trail bramble
anyone here maxed out a black mage?
warped nest
You cannot make low level gear stat relevant
remote lintel
yes why?
molten spruce
what i understood from a vid is that there is max lvl 80 but there is another level set for gear am i right?
remote lintel
not really
trail bramble
@remote lintel what level do they start getting better i just started one today
remote lintel
define "better" JOL
obsidian patio
BLM gets a massive boost in damage at 60
warped nest
Lvl 50, 60, 70, and 80 has a large range of item level, because they are/were the endgame
obsidian patio
The rotation becomes a lot smoother at 40 with the 3rd stack of fire/ice
little swift
Enochian and fire iv are big gamechangers
trail bramble
like as in their skill combination make a ton more sense
warped nest
Right now for lvl 80, you start at i430 ish, and the current max is 500

What should a gladiator rotation be at around lvl 20?
molten spruce
can i have opinions about dragoon?
remote lintel
what about it
molten spruce

warped nest
BLM is Fire spell does damage in Astral Fire stance, Ice spell get you into Umbral Ice stance to recover MP.

Big flashy jumps simple consistent rotation

you should also know that this game is extremely story heavy
as in 5% of the game is story

@obsidian patio thanks man that's what i was looking for
remote lintel
no there is
slate arrow
no there is
little swift
Theres endgame raids and such
remote lintel
i'm just saying a vast majority of your time will be doing story
slate arrow
but the majority of your time will be spent on the story before you reach alternate content
static yacht
end game raiding, crafting, community, play the market board

such as

wait its / o.o
remote lintel
also the story is a slow burn
warped nest
What should a gladiator rotation be at around lvl 20?
@leaden ginkgo do your weaponskill in the correct combo, use offensive Ability whenever they are ready (if you have any)
tidal yarrow
oh ok
little swift
If I recall correctly takkun :^)

!faq pldguide
zinc orbitBOT
warped nest
If you have any AOE weaponskill, use them when they can hit 3 or more enemies
slate arrow
Take the level 80 rotation, take out everything you don't have, boom level 20 rotation
warped nest
If you have any AOE Ability, use them even on single enemy because it is free damage
leaden ginkgo
@warped nest Sorry I don't understand what that means, I'm kinda new 🤣 . Could you explain what you mean please?
1st lvl 50, should i be doing Castrum Meridianum and the Prat one?
static yacht
AoE = area of effect
warped nest
Yes
Do those dungeons, they are part of the story
I don't exactly remember what Gladiator has at 20
I just gave you the general tips on how to do damage
static yacht
@leaden ginkgo do them for the MSQ story and if you get them in MSQ roulette don't touch it otherwise
little swift
They have 2 steps of single target
leaden ginkgo
Ok thank you @warped nest
@static yacht is there a reason not to touch em? they give 200 of those currency needed to upgrade?
static yacht
it takes 30 minutes for castrum, 1 hour for prae
warped nest
You can identify whether an action is Weaponskill or Ability by checking their tooltips
static yacht
there's more efficient methods if you want to get tomestones
and they don't give good EXP
if you don't do it through MSQ Roulette
leaden ginkgo
Ah i see
static yacht
if you want the tomestones, probly best method is just go through MSQ
warped nest
Remember:
Single target weaponskill on 1-2 enemy
AOE weaponskill on 3 or more enemies
Ability on any amount of enemies
Do weaponskill in their combo
leaden ginkgo
dam okay
warped nest
Either there's bonus or there isn't
leaden ginkgo
makes sense

Hi! I'm trying to enter a referral code before my purchase like it said but I can't seem to find the button on my mog station? It only says transfer to regular service
molten spruce
is it true that i can coop the free trial if someone with the game creates the group for me?
mossy tartan
If I would be able to accept the quest “the ties that bind” which item do I need to purchase from the mogstation?
warped nest
There are quests that requires mogstation items??
mossy tartan
I am wondering that myself 😄
dense cloud
do peloton and sprint stack?
mossy tartan
I just want the devotion glamour set and don’t know where to start
little swift
you can undergo eternal bond without purchasing mogstation items
however if you wish for the devotion set, that is from the platinum plan, which is 40usd
faint lantern
Sorry does anyone know where to input referral codes? 😅
mossy tartan
Do I need a partner if I would utilize the platinum plan?
Sorry does anyone know where to input referral codes? 😅
@faint lantern it’s in the mogstation somewhere
faint lantern
@mossy tartan It's not though, all the forums say it's in the my account in the mog station but I only have the transfer to regular service button 😦
little swift
you do need a partner to do the ceremoney in general
faint lantern
@mossy tartan 😢
mossy tartan
I’m really sorry, I don’t know what’s the problem : /
twilit arch
you need to be on the full game to use a recruit a friend code
faint lantern
So I need to transfer to regular service first? Just hesitant because FFXIV says you can;t input code after purchase 😖
@mossy tartan that's okay thank you for trying to help 🙂
twilit arch
you have 30 days free when you use a starter edition/complete edition code
gloomy ice
You enter the referral code after registering the game but before subscribing.
faint lantern
So I should buy the complete ver., enter the game code, enter the ref code, and then activate my sub
Just entering the game code from complete doesnt automatically activate the 30 days free right?
twilit arch
it does
gloomy ice
It’s activated as soon as the game is registered
faint lantern
When would I enter the code then 🤔
twilit arch
After you register the game
gloomy ice
The 30 free days don’t count as your subscription
faint lantern
OHHHHH
jade quartz
During those 30 days
twilit arch
the free subscription days do not count as having bought subscription
faint lantern
Holy crap thanks lmao
alrighty off to go buy the game 😅 thanks for everyone's help!!

mental garnet
so for some reason in some intense combat situations i do something with my keyboard that causes me to start typing in chat instead of, you know, moving with wasd
can you guys think of any keybinds i should check?
my hands go nowhere near the enter key
nor does my mouse go near the chat window
open coral
Tab?
mental garnet
perhaps, but when i press it out of combat it doesn't go into chat
it's switch target for me
open coral
Or you may have your "interact" set to a default keybind.
mental garnet
here are my mouse keybinds too
raw solstice
do you potentially accidentally hit alt or /
mental garnet
definitely alt
raw solstice
/ will take you into chat, alt + some letters is default to start typing in a specific chat
jade quartz
Could be something like alt+r or other chat mode keybinds
jade quartz
You can unbind them in keybinds

quiet cedar
What should I make my 3rd retainer as, another miner/bot or fisher? or Battler?
upper orchid
Can I go straight to idyllshire and buy gear with poetics as soon as I start Heavensward?
quiet cedar
no
slate arrow
no
quiet cedar
you need to unblock it with MSQ lvl 58
remote lintel
poetics gear is meant to be endgame gear for that expansion
little swift
specifically the battle tab, i'm not certain you can hide
slate arrow
@quiet cedar entirely depends on what you need. I'd say battlecraft since stuff like animal skins are harder to get in previous expansions but since bicolor gemstones exist in shadowbringers it's not as much needed compared to earlier expansions
slate arrow
well the retainer max level is tied to your max level in that job but yep
quiet cedar
gotcha, thanks
deft yarrow
Hey, I own ffxiv on ps4 but I want to be able to play it on my pc as well. I'm up to the beginning on shadow bringers storywise. Is believe I have to re-buy the game on pc to be able to play (which is fine) is there a package/collection I can buy rather than having to purchase everything seperately?
proud willow
You can buy Starter Edition and Shadowbringers separately, or you can buy the Complete Edition
open coral
The Complete Collection should be the base game + all expansions, as I recall.
proud willow
either way, you'll have everything
spare plinth
i got stuck how do i get the last forgotten whisper
proud willow
no need to purchase the first two expansions; they come included with Shadowbringers
upbeat storm
why would you need all 10 hotbars on screen
open coral
@spare plinth If you can't jump to it or near it, there should be a way to come around the other side and get to it that way.

Chick mount? Do you mean chocobos?
open coral
The... fat chocobo?
thorny spruce
maybe, the big yellow one, where do you get one of those
obsidian patio
I think the normal fat chocobo is from the ARR collectors edition
You can digitally upgrade to it in the mogstation in “additional services”
thorny spruce
WHAAAT 100CAD?
spare plinth
if you want to buy ffxiv, is it best to start with the starter version?
raven sage
Upgrading your existing game doesn't cost that price
obsidian patio
It should only be like 20 American dollars to upgrade ARR to ARR collectors
Unless you picked an option that buys you all 4 collectors editions
thorny spruce
okay ifound the upgrade, next, when will they update the helm graphics for hrothgar?
spare plinth
no if you want to go from free trial to official, is it best to buy starter?
obsidian patio
Unknown if ever
raven sage
If you're still not sure you want the expansions then yes
The starter edition is fine
If you want everything then buying the complete edition won't cost you extra money than buying the starter and shadowbringers separately though
faint flare
Depends if there's a sale
lime geode
Depends where you buy it as well - I think it was cheaper to buy the complete vs starter then more later.
faint flare
If there isn't a sale, complete costs the same as buying stuff seperately
thorny spruce
okay... i bought it
do i need to do something else?
like register it or something?
open coral
You should get a code in your email to enter on the mogstation
Then... you wait for it to show up in your mail
twilit arch
its automatically applied to your account once the payment goes thru

You can play and level every single class on a single character
you can have everything at level 80 on a single character even with no downside

All tanks wear the same armor though, for the most part
Different weapons though ofc

remote lintel
you can't fall off in pvp
molten spruce
ok
molten spruce
what would you recommend me as a new player
remote lintel
honestly you can play whatever you like I'm just saying
lime geode
start with whatever you like - n ot hard to switch
lime geode
I played dragoon to 45, then switched to white mage and I'm at 40 in two days
jade quartz
Nah
remote lintel
¯_(ツ)_/¯
jade quartz
Lots of movement tools now
open coral
You get a 100% xp bonus (until level 70, after which it becomes a 50% bonus) when leveling new jobs under the level of your highest level job @lime geode
So getting to 40 as WHM in two days is unsurprising.
spring oasis
how good are marcos to use them
remote lintel
not good for combat
obsidian patio
Only a few kinds of macros are okay to use in combat
spring oasis
shrink for second tank yah
obsidian patio
Like ones that quickly place ground-targeted moves like Asylum and Sacred Soil
Shirk is another example
spring oasis
anyone know how to marco a mouse so side buttons count as shift?
open coral
That would be either under your keybindings in the game, or in your mouse settings.
Not a macro
spring oasis
I didnt mean ingame marco
im assuming I need to do something out of the game on like a program for the mouse ye?
open coral
Depends, what kind of mouse do you have?
spring oasis
razer

Assuming Razer gaming mouse products operate in a similar fashion to Logitech ones, there should be a mouse-management program that either came with the mouse when you bought it, or can be downloaded for free from the Razer website.

upper orchid
How long are the cut scenes at the start of heavensward, give or take? Not sure if I should save it for tomorrow 😂
upper orchid
The game just warned me that I should make sure I have sufficient time
faint cloud
Thanks. I read Road to 70 expires after 90 days? So maybe I had it initially when I registered but 90 days are long past if it's measuring real days
gloomy ice
It doesn't go away until your server is no longer Preferred
faint cloud
Isn't Adamantoise preferred?
gloomy ice
Hmm. It should be? But, sometimes the buff does just go away.
twilit arch
road to 70 ends either after 90 days from character creation or until the server stops being preferred
indigo orbit
It’s 90 days or when the server loses preferred status whichever is longer
tulip plover
Finally level 50
jade quartz
The Parting Glass eh? @upper orchid give yourself like 45 mins for em. That’s the end of ARR rather than the start of HW.
leaden ginkgo
Road to 70 is 90 days right? Is this gameplay 90 days or real time 90 days?

can i make a retainer a battle class that i havent leveld up myself or does it work the same way as the gathering??

jade quartz
!faq poetics
zinc orbitBOT
twilit arch
@normal breach combat retainers are just like gathering retainers in that your retainer can only go as high as you personally are in that class/job
gloomy ice
@normal breach Retainers can't level higher than you in any class/job
jade quartz
@normal breach retainers cannot advance past your own level in any given class.
faint cloud
Some people say its 90 days whichever is later some don't. Can't find official info anywhere. Or maybe it wasn't preferred when I started?
jade quartz
It is 90 days/server becomes not preferred, whichever is later.
twilit arch
if the server wasn't preferred when you made the character then you wouldn't have the buff
normal breach
ok ty so if i want my retainer to gather items by killing monsters should i just have him be my class?
jade quartz
That is absolutely correct information.
twilit arch
keep in mind the 90 days is from character creation, not your account
normal breach
my class lvls are like 56 warrior 8 conjurer and thats it - so in this case i should just make him warrior right?
jade quartz
@normal breach yes, combat retainer for farming monster drop materials
@faint cloud note the buff does not display when you are on a class level 70 or above.
Only shows up when on a sub-70 class.
faint cloud
I am on Steam trial at level 31
tulip plover
I dont see the road to 70 buff what does it look like
faint cloud
I guess I assumed Adamantoise has been preferred this whole time but maybe it wasn't at some point
tulip plover
I dont have that :/
zinc orbitBOT
jade quartz
It is preferred
tulip plover
Does this mean ive been lvling the hard way?
tulip plover
:L
twilit arch
Adamantoise was changed to preferred status on April 7th

Ah. Thanks
That probably explains it
So I have no incentive now to stay here if I want to join an FC on another server

grizzled mist
Is there any reason to do GC deliveries when you have all your crafters levelled?
Other than seals of course
steep heron
Not really.
If all are leveled you are better off going for Scrip with Rowena
grizzled mist
Ah
In terms of earning seals though, generally, is it worth?
My FC chest ran out of Coke, so I need quite a bit of seals
steep heron
I dont have hard numbers for you but generally when my FC needs coke we all run seperate dungeons and just slap need/greed on everything
tulip plover
Is castrum supposed to be this easy lol
Like 8 people completely melt everything
And im sitting here like..... im tanking?
remote lintel
yes
tulip plover
I think it was prob harder during vanilla
remote lintel
because people didn't have lvl 80 gear back then
tulip plover
True
obsidian patio
Castrum was balanced around everyone being around i40-45, which puts non-tanks at around 2k hp and tanks around 3-4k
Meanwhile endgame ARR is i130 with non-tanks around 6k hp and tanks at like 10-12k

Do allegan tombstones give yoy anything good
solemn delta
Any way to check your email on lodestone?
median locust
You can buy the best gear available at each level cap with Poetics
At level 50 that's Ironworks gear (item level 120)
the vendor is in Mor Dhona
zinc orbitBOT
tulip plover
Oh so the allegans are poetics?
jade quartz
Allagan Tomestones of Poetics.
jade quartz
At level 80 there are also Allagan Tomestones of Phantasmagoria and Allagan Tomestones of Allegory.
tulip plover
So its just a line of allegan tomb stones of
gloomy ice
To date, all end game currency has been called Allagan Tomestone of ____
median locust
Besides lore stuff, Allagan Tomestones are basically just what the endgame currency is called
jade quartz
Each even-numbered major patch introduces a new type of Allagan Tomestones along with the new raid tier and gear tier.
And the oldest level-cap type is phased out.
or example, patch 5.4 (4-ish months away at this point--about 3 months after 5.3) will introduce a new Allagan tomestone, and phase out Phantasmagoria.
These tomestones will be used to purchase the new level 80 tomestone gear introduced then.
Poetics are used for everything that's not at level cap--it's the "previous expansions" tomestone.
They never get phased out.
solemn delta
I can't log in to FF on different OP ids not recognising me email?
normal breach
can you sell items with a retainer that you sent to do a gathering venture?
molten spruce
say invite them or talk to them

You can talk in /say chat by just typing in the chat bar

To send a private message, you can right-click on them and select send tell
normal breach
lyon asnwer mine plz!
jade quartz
or manually type in /t firstname lastname@homeservername
@normal breach yes
Retainers currently on ventures can do everything except have their gear changed
or be sent on another venture (obviously)

The will act annoyed with their summon dialogue but there is no negative consequence to calling them while they're on venture.

Any idea folks? I've triple changes /checked emauk

So I just finished ARR and i hit lvl 56 on my bard, today I spent a lot of time upgrading my relic weapon. My question is: is it worth working on the relic weapon or will it just be outclassed soon?
twilit arch
leves are going to be faster than just grinding
relic weapon is only really for glamour at this point
the ironworks weapon is far easier to get and will last until around lvl 53 unagumented, 55 if augmented

tried hard to figure out why i would ever use that
unique oasis
I have a problem where my gear sets are saying glamours could not be restored back and forth between AST and SCH even though both plates are saved, exist, I keep saving the gear set with the plate I want it to restore to, and there's no like class specific gear on them, just healer role pieces or all classes pieces
i don't see what the problem is
remote lintel
are you outside of a city
unique oasis
I just want SCH and AST to have seperate glamours saved with their gear sets
no, in a city
remote lintel
are they the same level
unique oasis
yes, both 80
acoustic island
is potd still the best way to level?
remote lintel
can you screenshot the plate and sets
so when u switch between them the previous glams are still there?
grim adder
Should I swap to healers if I want to farm poetics?
remote lintel
the weapon shouldn't be the issue

Dancer to WHM
I was eventually going to level WHm anyways but I'm not sure who to start shadowbringers with ^^;
o
my bad my bad
WHM should be easier than Astro right
unique oasis
well, the faster queues will help your poetics gains
@warped nest @remote lintel still fails in the same way with weapons removed from the plates
tulip plover
Finally dark cloak dude and galius are defeated is arr done?
remote lintel
you have to do post ARR
somber root
anyone have a mic that wants to help me with my lvl 70 summoner

@grim adder whm may be easier to learn, probably yeah
tulip plover
:l
remote lintel
technically ARR is done
tulip plover
Well guess ide better start lvling my other classes
warped nest
@unique oasis that message comes up if you change the glamour of a gear in a different gearset, and you swap to another gearset with that gear
quartz pivot
Guys, how do you set up macros for skills? I kinda want to add a few on mine >.< the type that says the targeted player’s name
warped nest
Right now, I think one of the glamour doesn't apply for some reason
And the message got through
jade quartz
We strongly recommend you do not macro combat skills
except for some very niche cases
silver ruin
@somber root for class specific advice you're better off going to teh balance discord, they have good resources for each class
jade quartz
We still don't recommend it
warped nest
For example, a ring is made to look like A in your SCH. Then your WHM gearset uses the the ring, so if the ring looks different now, it will prompt that message
silver ruin
still not a good idea
jade quartz
Though it's not an absolute killer
silver ruin
unless the revive macro is saying who you're reviving its prob not a good idea
unique oasis
but as you can see, both plates have something in all slots @warped nest
quartz pivot
Erm, why not?
silver ruin
cant queue skills with macros
warped nest
A reason why glam don't work is your glam is higher level than your gear
quartz pivot
Really? I see people on duties do it all the time tho
silver ruin
what kind of macros
unique oasis
but i'm an ilvl 486 on both those classes
silver ruin
cause normally you can see text macros that say something in text but thats it
those are ok
but if you're macroing 2 skills together thats a bad idea
warped nest
The only way to be sure now what went wrong is to go through a process of elimination
quartz pivot
Yeah, I’m asking how to do that 😅
silver ruin
so you're asking how to adda skill to a macro with text?
remote lintel

What Logograms do I absolutely NEED to pick up for content like BA and how do I farm them efficiently

/p I am currently rezzjng <t>, I got this

/ac raise <t>
/p raising <t>
just edit the second line for whatever you want it to say
quartz pivot
Okay. Slapping people back to life isnt just a dream anymore. 😊
silver ruin
but leave the t there so it says the person you're targeting
tulip plover
What can you change with phantasia
crimson wind
/p get off your ass, <t>, not picking you up again
unique oasis
I deleted my rez macros recently
silver ruin
everything besides your name
tulip plover
Can you change race?
unique oasis
I was tired of having to wait to be sure the rez went off and losing uptime in the process
so i decided to switch back to manually casting it
silver ruin
yea it got annoying for me like
quartz pivot
So /ac <skill name> at the top binds it to that skill?
unique oasis
sucks for my pugs but in static its fine since we can just call rez on mics
silver ruin
yea but you also have to have <t> after it
so ti targets your target for raise
wow i cant type tonight
remote lintel
if the skill name is more than 1 word long you need quotation marks
tulip plover
Cuz i want a taller race the dragon girl is cool but shes so short :(
remote lintel
make a dragon boy
silver ruin
yea you can change your race with fantasia
tulip plover
I still want a female
leaden matrix
so how do the tanks compare end game now days? was debating leveling my gnb
remote lintel
they're all good
tulip plover
I think the fran race looks cool
leaden matrix
that's such a bs copout answer lol
leaden matrix
obviously no one is gonna play what they hate
silver ruin
they're literally all viable
unique oasis
a world first was completed recently with a composition that was not considered in meta
the jobs are so close to each other in balance that how you play is so much more of the equation than what the job's numbers or w/e are
crimson wind
that's such a bs copout answer lol
@leaden matrix they're literally all viable
junior yacht
the only thing that really matters is whether or not you like the play style
crimson wind
just some are more fun than others
leaden matrix
@crimson wind "play what you like the most"
leaden matrix
That's the copout answer
twilit arch
its an honest and true answer though
leaden matrix
No one sane is going to pay to play what they hate
crimson wind
no it's literally the correct answer
unique oasis
instead of being salty can you read what I said about how a world first was completed with a non-meta class composition, which literally backs up the "play what you like the most" advice? @leaden matrix
warped nest
Some game are so bad with balancing... You have no choice
leaden matrix
Every class has pros and cons, that doesn't mean they aren't enjoyable
twilit arch
For instance, one of the world first groups for one of the hardest fights in game brought a dark knight even though the community thought it was shit because the dark knight wanted to play it
junior yacht
i mean if you want a "real" answer
you're never gonna be good enough for the numerical differences to matter
twilit arch
Player skill is far more important
junior yacht
so focus on finding classes you enjoy
unique oasis
if you're asking about differences in play style we can talk about what each one is like
warped nest
In games like Overwatch, people at higher level don't get to pick what they like
junior yacht
"is leveling gnb worth it" is entirely dependent on whether or not you think it's fun to play
unique oasis
GNB is kinda busy, lots of buttons to press, has some combos with various steps including one that has an ogcd you use in between each attack in a specific order, stuff like that. you build up these charges and blow them on a bigger move or w/e
if you want to play a tank with lots of buttons to press and skills light up when you gain charges, that's the one to pick
unique oasis
a crash
remote lintel
thank you for the insight
unique oasis
xaudio is some audio driver
i'm pretty sure it's that
as for why it crashed, no idea
remote lintel
tulip plover
I like how the axe gets bigger and bigger as you lvl your gear
leaden ginkgo
For me to fly, I have to collect aether currents and do the MSQ to that area?
marble drift
yes
remote lintel
and blue quests
remote lintel
soon
silver ruin
depends on the zone but normally the last quest in the zone
leaden ginkgo
depends on the zone but normally the last quest in the zone
@silver ruin Thats not an answer to my question
leaden ginkgo
In which patch?
remote lintel
3?
remote lintel
what
leaden ginkgo
XD happens
silver ruin
none of the athercurrents were added in .x patches
they're all in the base expansions
remote lintel
yep
silver ruin
no
twilit arch
new areas with flight generally aren't added in post patches
though i guess technically diadem
silver ruin
diadem didnt have aethercurrents though
leaden ginkgo
Because the areas are being introduced in the main expansion not in the post patches
twilit arch
it did initally
twilit arch
yeah first iteration you had to attune to fly but it was much quicker than normal
but yeah generally, aether currents if they're added it is with the expansion itself
not a post patch
mental garnet
dudes playing as a healer just makes me pissed at other players
more than any other class
am i doing something wrong?
remote lintel
why
mental garnet
stuff is perfectly fine most of the time as tank and dps of course
leaden ginkgo
Maybe if you take more time capitalizing correctly you wont have time to get pissed at other players
Nah but fr
mental garnet
capitalizing?
leaden ginkgo
Always have the mindset
mental garnet
in a message room?
leaden ginkgo
That you are doing good and they are doing their best
If you notice mistakes
Call them out
remote lintel
like
mental garnet
in the form of not being able to outheal them sometimes
and in the form of running out of mana even after using all the tools at my disposal
leaden ginkgo
It happens really, today I had an annoying tank
remote lintel
what are you playing
leaden ginkgo
He wouldnt use mitigation at all
mental garnet
whm
leaden ginkgo
So I had to keep spam healing him
remote lintel
was the tank using mitigation
leaden ginkgo
I thought it was my fault
mental garnet
yeah
idk maybe today's just not a good day for me
who knows
i like the idea of healing
leaden ginkgo
Was pulling way too many waves or was the DPS not killing fast enough so the fight kept on going?
tulip plover
What does armoe identification key do
leaden ginkgo
The one you got from the MSQ?
remote lintel
@tulip plover gives you a mount
tulip plover
Ye
mental garnet
mounts in this game have activation items that you need to use one time
tulip plover
gasp where do i turn this in
leaden ginkgo
You dont turn it in
twilit arch
you use it
mental garnet
so you right click and select use
leaden ginkgo
Use it
tulip plover
Now to grind stuff to lvl 50 before i begin tge treck to hw

leaden ginkgo

twilit arch

tulip plover
Fuck i guess i have to farm the final dungeon
-.-
Dat shit long af
Cant i just buy some of the shitz
tulip plover
Ah ok
marble drift
worry about gear when you're 80. not before
tulip plover
Ok i used the phantasia now hoe do i change
little swift
unequip everything
and then log out
when you log back in it'll prompt you to go into character customization
remote lintel
you're not supposed to
remote lintel
you right click your character name and it will give you the option to change
rough lance
there are only 2 different parasols in the game currently?
winged steppe
What can i do as a high end duty with a 64 drk?
twilit arch
yes, the black and blue ones are currently the only ones available @rough lance
winged steppe
Is it only savage n such? I wanna do the 200 high end duty tank mount
rough lance
thanks
remote lintel
you could do EX
floral falcon
Nice and clean 👌
leaden ginkgo
Any tips or anything to change?
floral falcon
I'm be honest it looks 100x cleaner than mine so I can only really appreciate 😂
mossy tartan
How much does does a mogstation maintenance usually take? Subscription ran out
mossy tartan
hmm, weird
winged steppe
Omg same i felt so heavy when i went whm
mossy tartan
You should play AST at least once a while to keep that busy mindset ready, really helps me out alternating between the two jobs
mental garnet
i like having the chatbox a bit bigger
but other than that it's pretty clean, i like it
little swift
i also think looking down instead of the center of your screen is less helpful
but otherwise it cleans up the screen space really well!
mental garnet
is it possible to keep the equipped dot grid but get rid of the inventory only?
jade quartz
Also as I said earlier, get that phoenix down off shift+5!
mental garnet
i used the equipped dot grid to know when to extract materia
jade quartz
you have a lot of much more useful skills there that are placed in harder-to-reach places for some reason
mental garnet
as for the looking down part - i used ctrl + up to center my camera further down the screen
you may find that helpful, azure
gets your camera center closer to your skill bars
jade quartz
Chaos Thrust, Fang & Claw, Blood of the Dragon, Feint are all more useful than phoenix down
You cannot even use phoenix downs during combat, so I don't recommend having it taking up a useful keybind space.
remote lintel
you really don't need one of those
jade quartz
I would never consider even keybinding it at all
heck even having it taking up a space in your inventory is a contentious choice heh
remote lintel
do we know when the fantasia sale is gonna end
remote lintel

soft hazel
So I have all of my iLvl 90 gear and my iLvl 80 relic weapon... where do I go from here? I didn’t want to spend tombs on anything before I asked in this chat... what does gear progression look like in ff14? Should I be farming for better gear by doing MSQ and unlocking dungeons and trials or should I jump right in and start spending tombs?
soft hazel
That’s was in the order of things when I looked up progression unlocks 😐
mental garnet
it's fine
remote lintel
older relic weapons are just for glams
mental garnet
just know that relic weapon is considered an end game glamour item only
remote lintel
why didn't you get the ironworks gear
jade quartz
Relic weapon is fine to get
nice quest, gives you a title and a glamour that fits your AF set well
remote lintel
gear progression is basically just msq/dungeon gear > hit level cap > get poetics gear > msq/dungeon > hit level cap and get that poetics gear> repeat
jade quartz
as an actual weapon of course Ironworks has far superior stats.
soft hazel
I got the iLvl 80 from lvl 50 job quest... I have enough tombs to buy some iron works from Ariana or whatever
remote lintel
then go get it
soft hazel
I mean iLvl90
mental garnet
good, that's your next stop then
jade quartz
Gear progression at level 50 is get job quest set -> get ironworks -> augment ironworks (optional)
and then you're set until like level 55 or 57
remote lintel
every 10 levels you get poetics gear
soft hazel
Okay very nice I’ll get that now... but I am already lvl 55 so should I be working towards something else?
remote lintel
do msq
soft hazel
(Almost lvl 56)
remote lintel
then get to 60
then get lvl 60 poetics gear
its fine if you dont get the full set
mental garnet
don't force yourself to save poetics unless you really don't have much time to play
soft hazel
Okay thanks a lot I’ll get iron works and get to leveling... any pieces that I should prioritize if not the full set? Does pants, head, chest have higher stats?
remote lintel
the weapon
soft hazel
Any I can get the weapon from same place I get armor?
remote lintel
from the vendor to the left
soft hazel
Awesome! Thanks for the help!

is there anything special that happens if I finish all the crystarium delivery quests?
twilit arch
there's an extra final quest once you've done them all
molten spruce
how do i fix my 3rd person to be seen from more far away?
spare plinth
There may be some people on the discord that came from wow. What’s the usual reason why people migrate
I think one reason I saw is that some people feel lonely in wow
molten spruce
i migrated from eso bc i feel lonely lol
gloomy ice
Page Up/Down on keyboard to zoom.
molten spruce
on ps4?
gloomy ice
Hold L1 and move right stick.
molten spruce
ahhhh
thankss
i hated that closeup 3rd person
one quick question
im a new player, when i dont have msq available bc of level what can i do level up?
gloomy ice
FATEs or levequests at those early levels. Roulettes if you have dungeons unlocked.
Oh at that level regular side quests work as well
molten spruce
also how do i interact with other players
i see them runnin in fancy mounts but idk how to lets say inv them or whisper them
indigo orbit
hunting log is free exp and it's ez
Might as well do it
The ring you get isn't useful anymore but it's cool to have
molten spruce
where is the hunting log, on my ui or somewhere in girdania?
indigo orbit
If you're on PC you open it by hitting H
molten spruce
ps4
indigo orbit
In the menu thing under logs
gloomy ice
If you target them, hit Square to bring up a submenu with some interactions you can do. If you have a usb keyboard you can plug that in and simply type. Most keyboards are compatible with ps4.
indigo orbit
and yeah USB keyboards work on PS4 for typing
gloomy ice
The kind with built in trackpads are a little funky though.
indigo orbit
never used one at least not on PS4
gloomy ice
Neither have I. Just heard they have some compatibility issues.
Any regular usb should work without a hitch though
molten spruce
can i travel to a player? (fast travel to them to get an easy wayshrine)
gloomy ice
There is fast travel but not directly to specific people. Only to the teleport zones. Those big blue crystals.
molten spruce
yes, perfect
indigo orbit
Technically there is a way to teleport to a player but only if you're married to them
and only once every 30 minutes
molten spruce
also im having trouble zooming out the map to see its full extent, is it possible?
proud willow
there's a button on the top left of the map to zoom out to the world map
if that's what you mean
you can't shrink most zone maps to be as zoomed out as you want
gloomy ice
Zooming on the bigger map is the same as zooming out your camera. L1 and right stick.
gloomy ice
Crystarium gear is generally a full upgrade.
gloomy ice
Crafted is more of an entry level step for the current tier. If you can afford the tome gear, that’s usually the better option.
marble drift
I can think of 1 exception
un-upgraded crystarium tanking helm
cause its trash on stats
gloomy ice
Yeah lol
remote lintel
basically
gloomy ice
For the most part. It is also pretty good glam though.
thorny spruce
whenever i open ffxiv, it always open in my laptop
remote lintel
I use neo ish because I don't have enough tomes for all my classes
thorny spruce
how to put it on my tv?
hot crane
yeah it seems to take a long time before getting gull crystarium set
remote lintel
you can also use the Eden verse gear
@thorny spruce connect your laptop to the TV?
thorny spruce
yeah
hot crane
oh I can do e6s now
remote lintel
not savage
thorny spruce
ah nevermind, ill just watch anime on my phone
hot crane
yet I also need to gear up my whm besides my main drg
seems that neo-ishgardian can be a good choice for my whm too
colleting materials one by one >_>
molten spruce
the gatekeepers wont let me past to the central shroud where the hunt log leads me what should i do?
deft quiver
Im on post HW quests, and im offered either fending or slaying accessories. Im a BLM, which one should i choose?
molten spruce
yes
deft quiver
so just take the silver bags then
molten spruce
ohhh
twilit arch
white wolf gate leads out to a higher lvl part of central shroud
twilit arch
exit thru the blue badge gate
remote lintel
you have to take the long way around
molten spruce
where is that gate
twilit arch
blue badger gate is to the east of the adventurer's guild
gloomy ice
Wolf gate won’t open until you’re near level 30. The normal exit is to the south.
twilit arch
southeast ish
upbeat storm
is the post moogle quests worth reading through?
