Would recommend for doing BA

tulip plover
#

O wow they are streamlining arr msq to make it less of a slog RIGHT AFTER I JUST FINISHED THE FUCKIN STORY FOR IT

Can buy the tokens off mb

Is Edencall gear considered better then Neo-Ishgardian (Class is dancer, specifically I'm thinking jewelry)? Looking at the stats it looks to be about the same, yet it is locked behind a weekly limit

grim adder
#

Is there ever a point where I would use Cure 3? o-o

whole wasp
#

edencall is free gear. Neo-ishgardian is crafter or requries gil

jade quartz
#

Yes, for high-damaging close party stacks basically

whole wasp
#

yes, cure 3 when mutiple raidwides incoming and your HoTs cant keep up

cinder patio
#

@grim adder yeah, when people are huddled together. For example, when everyone has to stack on someone for a stack mechanic

grim adder
#

oo okay

whole wasp
#

stuff like arkh morn, lunacy etc

cinder patio
#

Cure 3 is powerful af, but short range. It is a niche tool, but very good at when it does still

leaden ginkgo
#

where in the market board can i find tier 3 heavens eye materia

jade quartz
#

Use the search bar

#

@whole wasp Got it, thanks. That's what I was thinking, but this is the first time I've actually been high enough to access content with a weekly limit. About to enter E5N for the first time

tulip plover
#

Is all of the diologue for post rr neccesary?

#

Or should i read all of them

whole wasp
#

post arr you mean?

unique oasis
#

anyone know how many crystal sands are needed roughly for A Dream Fulfilled of the HW anima weapons? and maybe umbrite too? im seeing 60-75 but that number seems familiar and I did that step during HW at the time so I'm wondering if it's been nerfed or it's still in the 60-75 range

tulip plover
#

Ye

unique oasis
#

i'm pre-buying my moonstones for sand now as something to do with my seals

whole wasp
#

it waffles about in the middle but i suggest some of the beginning and most of the ending.

unique oasis
#

so if anyone knows, much appreciated

marble dome
#

60-80

tulip plover
#

Ok ill just do it and look up a summary

#

Cuz these quests go on five ever

whole wasp
#

when you ever get the long cutscenes warning, definitely watch that

unique oasis

Yea i usually watch cutscenes

Can you still get the old Heavensward relics like the lux? Has anything changed with that? Thinking about starting those

spare plinth
#

do you always have to follow a rotation for any class?

dense pier
#

Okay so, I am trying to get the elemental armor from Eureka to dye it, it glows, yadda yadda.

I just augmented my +2 weapon with feathers. Do I leave Anemos now and move on to the next Eureka? Do I need to progress my antique armor as well to eventually get the glam I want?

twilit arch
#

yes, you can still get the older relics. they're quicker to get than when they were current content @wheat hazel

#

not every job has a strict rotation to follow, but in general, yes you should be following the rotations/priorities laid out in the various job guides that are linked in the !faq commands we have. As these guides have been theorycrafted out to be the best way of doing damage. Not following them means you're not doing as much damage as you possibly can, which is ultimately hindering your group. Not saying you have to play absolutely perfectly, but you should be trying to follow the rotations as best as possible @spare plinth

twilit arch
#

@dense pier don't need to augment the artifact gear if your main goal is the elemental set. Once you've gotten Anemos +2, assuming you're also lvl 20+ you can move onto pagos. That said, its often recommend to linger in anemos until 25 ish to make your life a bit easier in pagos

@twilit arch is there a simple guide anywhere I can follow that’s updated?

What are good ways to farm company seals at level 80

warped nest

Farm gear from dungeons, sell gears to GC

twilit arch
mossy current
#

Yea, but which dungeons

#

I usually do gubal, but it gives less than I remember

twilit arch
#

if you're going to solo a dungeon, Aery is pretty good for time/seals

little swift
#

aery isn't bad

spare plinth
#

the rotation from the faq kupo bot is the basic for every class?

warped nest
#

It is not the basic, it is the endgame rotations

twilit arch
#

That said, expert roulette gear is going to be the biggest seal turn in

mossy current
#

True

warped nest
#

People rarely make mid leveling rotation

mossy current
#

Ty ty

warped nest

Some do make lvl 50/60 rotation for SB/ShB expansion jobs to break you in

Are any jobs straight up unplayable without double weaving? If I try to double weave, my GCD usually clips just a blink (haven't timed it, I'd say around .1-.3 seconds) but it could cause my ogcd buff timings to drift all over the place.

#

I currently play sch, RDM, dnc, lnc (soon to be drg) ast, and plan on picking up brd mch smn at some point

#

Although sometimes, when the ping lord blesses me, I don't clip at all

remote lintel
#

is your ping good

#

do you know what your latency is?

tulip plover
#

Does this game have a meta?

Meta Jobs FAQ

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

dense pier
#

So someone gave me some advice for Eureka. How does Skill Speed work? Is it threshold based, or does every little bit have an impact?

remote lintel
#

no

little swift
#

no it doesn't

#

stats work in tiers

#

based on your level range

#

you need to get a certain amount to get tot eh next tier

#

!faq stats

dense pier
#

So threshold then, it has no impact until it reaches a certain tier

zinc orbitBOT
tulip plover
#

Ah yes thunder cross split attack, the best of offense and defense no one has ever beaten it

#

Except dio

little swift
#

we're completely serious about the lack of meta

dense pier
#

How do I calculate for Eureka (70?)

little swift
#

the pve content is clearable on all jobs

tulip plover
#

Ok

celest jolt
#

What's the difference between parses and logs?

#

Is that some kind of ranking?.

gritty oracle
#

My ping is probably around 100-150 (when I played League on the NA server, I had stable 140-ish ping), idk where to check my xiv one

#

What's the difference between parses and logs?
@celest jolt a log is the saved data of someone's parse, which may or may not have been uploaded onto FFLogs for people to see. A parse is basically a fight that you have tracked using a dps meter to see your damage and other data

tulip plover
#

So how do people enhance theyre armor so they can solo ex

little swift
#

they're using a feature in the duty finder called undersized party

#

lets them bypass the restrictions but they lose the ability to gain exp

tulip plover
#

Is it still really hard solo

remote lintel
#

depends on the fight

tulip plover
#

Cuz im curious i want to try soloing one day just to say i did it

remote lintel
#

I mean

#

you can kill the ARR primals in a minute

#

at lvl 80

tulip plover
#

Im talking about lvl 80 content

#

:)

remote lintel
#

then nope

tulip plover
#

Cuz i want to know how to push your stats to the limits

remote lintel
#

you can't solo current EX content

#

you won't ever be able to

gloomy ice
#

Current content extremes can't be soloed, yeah. By design.

tulip plover
#

Awwww but what about getting the highest gear stats

remote lintel
#

what about it

tulip plover
#

Just curious how to accomplish this

remote lintel
#

do savage

#

get relic weapon

gritty oracle
#

Current ex content is very very hard for 8 people. For one, it's impossible.

little swift
#

How do I calculate for Eureka (70?)
@dense pier not particularly sure, since the ilvl is synced to 300, the amount of stat you need drastically falls. As far as i remember, at lv60 you need about 26points of a substat to reach a new tier but i cannot remember what the it was, maybe about 66 points per tier?

#

you are just flat not allowed to unsync current expansion content

remote lintel
#

EX is easier than savage actually Vie

#

its not like

#

super super hard

gritty oracle
#

I guess

#

I'm just freshly 80 and wouldn't even dream of ex or savage lmao

#

Also, can you pug your way to savage? My current schedule doesn't really allow for raiding on weekdays in NA acceptable times, so finding a static isn't really feasible for me

junior yacht
#

it's not unheard of

remote lintel
#

you would have to potentially train new people every time you get a pug

#

unlike a static where people train with you

little swift
#

pugging is doable for ex and savage through duty finder

#

your mileage may vary

#

ultimates though....i doubt its doable on any NA or EU server through pug

gritty oracle
#

Fair

remote lintel
#

we need a "hide the pain harold" emoji

#

so i can insert it

unique oasis
#

my average ping is 114 ms and i can double weave @gritty oracle

gritty oracle
#

But my ping is too high to crunch 100% DPS out of my character anyways so I can't do ultimates

little swift
#

how high is your ping vie?

gritty oracle
#

Where do you live Kawa, If I may ask?

unique oasis
#

Toronto

#

my ping was way better back when the datacenters were in montreal

#

the NA ones

gritty oracle
#

As said, don't know and atm can't check. Estimate like 100-150. When I played League on NA server, had 140 stable.

little swift
#

interesting, kawa your ping is so much higher than mine

#

they told you how

i have a livestream up at the moment @little swift so i might be hurting myself

usually i'm running at sub 80ms

only on JP servers i'm at 180

remote lintel
#

yeah i'm slightly farther than kawa and my ping is like 74

unique oasis
#

yeah

#

im using considerable upload and download right now

#

i bet it's probably closer to 80 if i was not streaming

#

but i wouldnt want to stop that just to ping the DC

dense pier
#

Interesting

tulip plover
#

Where can i get glamour from

dense pier
#

I'm farming iLevel 300 gear as we speak

unique oasis
#

if you're playing from europe and on NA DC though you may suffer in double weaves

dense pier
#

so I can materia them

#

with skill-speed for Eureka

remote lintel
#

materia is kinda useless below 80

dense pier
#

not for Eureka

remote lintel
#

oh that

#

@tulip plover anything you can wear can be used as glamor

gritty oracle
#

@tulip plover Every-hecking-where. Crafting, dungeons, raids, trials, augmented gear, job coffers, Eureka, PvP, hunts... A significant portion of which I do solely for glamour.

#

I don't even care about PvP, hunts or Eureka. I just want the true endgame.

unique oasis
#

lets try to help with Vie's question

#

what jobs double weave the least

#

maybe RDM?

little swift
#

you have to weave your dash in/out fleche/aoe fleche embolden/accelerate/lucid

gritty oracle
#

Yeah although my opener is kinda packed because I want to get Fleche and Acceleration out as soon as possible

remote lintel
#

probably dnc

gritty oracle
#

You don't really have to crunch for lucid in my experience. RDM is not at all mana intensive unless you're chain rezzing. Just press it whenever you have an empty weave window.

dusk zenith
#

savage is defintiely do-able in pf

unique oasis
#

also

#

based on what you're saying

dusk zenith
#

ive done all my savage raiding through pf

gritty oracle
#

DNC is very very busy especially in tech window. That's the one job I actually just accept I'm gonna clip so I can get both fan dance 3 and the next feather out

unique oasis
#

you're already good enough for savage

dusk zenith
#

progging + clearing

unique oasis
#

i dont even think as hard as you're thinking and I cleared E5S

#

maybe learning an extreme first as a stepping stone migh t be smart

#

but like, i have barely got into that kind of nitty gritty at all (and what you're talking about is also kind of just scratching the surface from what I can tell) and I've done it so

#

at least i got started

#

so you can too

#

@gritty oracle that's at you, no self doubt ok?

little swift
#

the extremes of this tier are quite lenient

#

you should definitely give them a go

#

they're quite fun

dusk zenith
#

extreme trials are a good start before starting savage

unique oasis
#

you dont have to tho!

#

monk in my static came straight into savage with us

dusk zenith
#

enrage + mechanics are not as punishing if youre still learning your rotation

unique oasis
#

he'd been paying the game like literally a few months and here he is

#

its his first mmo too

gritty oracle
#

Haha thanks @unique oasis I just feel limited by my ping (I wish I server switched to EU before finding my current roleplaying community, which is the main reason why I stay) and my EU schedule.

unique oasis
#

you're roleplaying on aether?

#

that's unique

#

i guess it probably happens

#

but its mostly Crystal

#

I'm surrounded by RPers everywhere I go

mental garnet
#

are phantasmagoria tomes worthless to me until i get to ShB msq?

remote lintel
#

basically

unique oasis
#

?

#

i mean, yeah you won't be able to use them at all until then

mental garnet
#

ok

unique oasis
#

they're not really worth anything at all

#

you can get outdated gear with them or you can trade them for crafting materials to sell on the MB

#

but its the blue tomestones you care more about

#

allegory or whatever

mental garnet
#

well yeah just wanted to ask if there's a way i can not waste them while still being in 4.1 msq 😛

empty sleet
#

Hi guys, say my static is progging slowly for current tier, right now just started 6s and not sure when we can clear up to shiva, is it better for me to get crystarium body or instead get 2 accessories and overmeld my Neo-Ishgardian?

remote lintel
#

change class

mental garnet
#

since i'm capped from doing dailies

unique oasis
#

either way is moving towards your BIS? @empty sleet

dusk zenith
#

@empty sleet crystarium body

empty sleet
#

No, body isn't used

unique oasis
#

if body isnt part of your BIS i wouldn't, personally

empty sleet
#

BiS for body is Edenchoir

unique oasis
#

oh, hmm

empty sleet
#

That's what I read, generally I want to avoid those are being replaced if I cleared, but my question is

unique oasis
#

I still wouldn't but maybe some might

empty sleet
#

I think we're going to take a long time to clear up to shiva because we are quite fresh

#

So is overmelding makes it better? Or I should just get the body

unique oasis
#

well in that case if you think you will take long enough that you won't delay a BiS piece by too much by buying a non-bis piece, I guess you could

#

but the body is costing you 2 weeks and you should think of it that way

gritty oracle
#

@unique oasis I am in fact on Crystal. (Mostly by accident though, I just went to the server my then friend played on.)

unique oasis
#

you have an aether role and name colour

#

i didnt click you so i didnt see the crystal role

gritty oracle
#

Ah. No idea why.

#

I'll click it off

dusk zenith
#

you cant get the body till e8s, which will be a very long time, let alone clearing. better to get crystarium for now and get through e5s-e7s, and potentially augment it to ilvl500

unique oasis
#

hey since you're on crystal, we can play together @gritty oracle

#

like if you wanna try an extreme sometime

crystal badger
#

how long do items stay posted on the mb?

gritty oracle
#

Eh, tbh I haven't even finished ShB MSQ yet

unique oasis
#

until they sell or are taken down by the seller

gritty oracle
#

Forever

crystal badger
#

okay

#

someone will buy my stuff eventually

mental garnet
#

is there level 60 DoH scrip gear like there's handking for level 70?

gloomy ice
#

Well, not forever, strictly speaking. You have to call your retainer on occasion to ensure they stay posted. If you don't, the thing you're selling will automatically unlist itself.

#

@mental garnet There is but you have to buy blue scrip tokens instead of purchasing them directly. The vendor that accepts the blue scrip tokens is right next to the scrip vendor in Idyllshire.

mental garnet
#

i saw that, they're class specific right?

gloomy ice
#

Yeah

mental garnet
#

i was hoping there was an omni-crafter counterpart

#

sigh

#

thanks though! i'll just get to 70 and use handking

gritty oracle
#

I just hit 70 on my first doh, (The rest are in the 62-65 ballpark) should I buy scrip gear or try to get 71 and craft myself early ShB gear?

atomic vault
#

Hey, anyone have any sure fire macros for gathering lvl 80. For collectibles please.

gloomy ice
#

Hand/Landking gear is ridiculously good.

#

It can carry you all the way to 80

gritty oracle
#

Huh

dense pier
#

I'm comparing these two weapons. The extra weapon damage on my Aug-Scaev is worthless in Eureka right?

unique oasis
#

uh, what?

#

just use the left one i dont see why you would even keep the right one at all

#

you're looking at an item level difference here btw

dense pier
#

Eureka syncs your item-level down to 300.

If your itemlevel is 300 or less, it doesn't get synced meaning you can get benefits from Materia/Overmelding

unique oasis
#

okay...

#

that's a seriously overkill level of optimization for content that really doesn't need it

gritty oracle
#

@atomic vault Idk I usually gather collectibles by hand, try the balance.

unique oasis
#

and at least for me personally i'd rather save the armory chest slots

dense pier
#

Yeah, why would I want to optimize for glamour farming content quicker

unique oasis
#

i bet you spend more time setting this up than you would gain back by using it

dense pier
#

Okay

gritty oracle
#

Besides most of the time you'll bein groups in Eureka so the DPS loss becomes negligible

dense pier
#

I go in regularly for challenge log and solo

#

and usually run around solo, if not duo

dusk zenith
#

@dense pier yes, the extra damage you would gain from it is irrelevent since its isynced to 300

dense pier
#

Ty

gritty oracle
#

Huh. In my opinion, grinding Eureka alone just feels crappy and lonely. Not to mention not too efficient because you can't pull half the zone without a tank and healer

dusk zenith
#

so it is better to overmeld the second weapon if that is what you are planning

dense pier
#

It's a mindless farm @gritty oracle

dusk zenith
#

oh its green, nvm

unique oasis
#

is it really worth it though @dusk zenith

dense pier
#

It's a bit relaxing

#

Also I'm PLD, I'm both a tank AND healer

dusk zenith
#

is that overmeldable? i cant remember

dense pier
#

uh idk

unique oasis
#

only crafted stuff is overmeldable right?

#

like greens

#

i'm assuming thats a crafted weapon

dusk zenith
#

yeah the crafted stuff is overmeldable

unique oasis
#

but idk

dense pier
#

No, dungeon drop

gloomy ice
#

Advanced melding forbidden

dusk zenith
#

im not sure if dungeon drops are though

little swift
#

it says "Advanced melding forbidden"

gloomy ice
#

Meaning no overmelds

unique oasis
#

oh thanks eton

dense pier
#

I'll probably get around to crafting a Eureka farming set later

unique oasis
#

i have been playing RDM in eureka, its pretty great there

#

eureka is like 60% RDM players though hahaha

gritty oracle
#

Eh. I like just going to town with my AoEs while the DPS collects even more packs. In my experience, Eureka is an inherently social thing.

unique oasis
#

both for the fact that its decent in there and the fact that almost everyone who wants a weapon from eureka is a RDM player

dusk zenith
#

@unique oasis melding isnt too necessary for this content since its not like there is a dps/enrage check, but if someone wants to min-max i guess

unique oasis
#

most others would seemingly rather go for anima or ARR

gritty oracle
#

I play RDM in Eureka to be able to rez anyone and still deal damage. In groups I usually switch to scholar. (I actually started Eureka for the glowing butterfly book.)

unique oasis
#

@gritty oracle im with you on that, i even do the challenge log in a party if i can

#

i have been surprised by vercure in eureka

#

i always kind of thought of it as totally useless and would only be used for pre-making a dualcast but in there it has worked ok in a pinch

#

i always assumed it would heal like 5% or less of an hp bar cause no mind to fuel it but for some reason it heals a usable amount if you drop it twice on someone

#

like it's no replacement for an actual healer but it can bail someone out of a situation as long as said situation doesn't go on for too long

dense pier
gritty oracle
#

I have saved dungeon runs with Vercure where tank overpulled and healer was struggling.

desert ravine
#

is there a way to instantly show this on map? x5.7, y14.3? or do i have to manually find it and set a marker?

gritty oracle

@dense pier i believe thats BiS chest for eureka

gritty oracle

Ah nope. Use your aether compass.

dusk zenith

due to elemental, haste, and pentameld

desert ravine
#

okay

dense pier
#

Yup, that's why I got it

gloomy ice
#

For it to be shown instantly without flagging it yourself, it'll have to be linked to you from someone else. But that also means that someone else would have to find and flag it themselves so it's not like that would save much time in the end.

when is the 5.3 announcement happening again?

warped nest

Live Letter early July

barren arrow

no exact date?

gloomy ice

First week of July is all they've said.

#

A week and a half at most, in other words.

gritty oracle
#

I hope we get 5.3 before September

gloomy ice

All signs seem to point to it staying in July but we'll know for sure next week some time.

what's the best way to get experience after msq?

little swift
#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
little swift
#

basically roulettes > highest level leveling dungeon spam = PotD/HoH > beast tribes/fates/hunts

gritty oracle
#

Should I always do MSQ roul on the highest class I'm leveling? I've heard the xp boost depends on your level.

little swift
#

EXP rewards from roulettes scale to the level of the job completing it

#

so you use it on the job you want to level

#

since it'll receive the big bonus of the day

#

you are never mandated to use it on the highest level job you're leveling

gritty oracle
#

Ah, thanks!

dense pier
#

Btw, I know unrelated to #questions-and-help but I'm happily pulling large groups of equal-level in Eureka and killing them as PLD

Like I said earlier, PLD is tank and healer

Is there any EXP resources beside leveQuest, GC Turn in and Ixali quest for DoH before 50?

all of my crafter is already 30

slate arrow

ishgard

dense pier
#

Leves

#

He said before 50

slate arrow
#

ishgard is before 50

gloomy ice
#

The only other option would be Ishgardian Restoration but that requires clearing main quests up to 3.3

slate arrow
#

starts at 20

#

given you have a combat class at 60

dense pier
#

Yeah, but I'm assuming since he's asking that he hasn't unlocked it yet

west swallow
#

Oh I'm already beat MSQ to SB

gloomy ice
#

Perfect. There's a poster right next to the main aetheryte in Ishgard.

west swallow
#

Ok I will search more info about Ishgard

gloomy ice
#

That unlocks access to the Firmament where all of the IR stuff is done

west swallow
#

my old guide no info about this

little swift
#

old guides may be outdated

#

ishgard restoration was added in 5.18

west swallow
#

yeah I think so, the guide still suggest share skill lol

slate arrow

that's

#

cross class skills for crafters are no longer a thing too

is Isgard restoration progess will transfer too, if I transfer Home world?

ishgard restoration progress is tied to servers

#

there's no personal progress besides scrips and exp

gloomy ice
#

You do keep any scrips earned if you transfer btw

twilit arch
#

well

west swallow
#

I see ty

twilit arch
#

the skyward score is personal progress of sorts

thorny spruce
#

eyy

#

question

#

farming Centurio seals posting bill

#

is there a limit?

#

I want the set for level 60.

gloomy ice
#

There is a hard limit of seals you can hold. You can accept six daily bills and two weekly in Ishgard and Rhalgr's/Kugane. That is a semi functional limit. But if you were to find A/S ranks in HW or SB zones, there is theoretically no limit to the amount you can earn as long as there are A/S ranks to kill.

thorny spruce
#

so ill just google where the location?

#

everytime i finish per bill?

#

like list down the stuff and when i kil lthem, they count?

rough lance
#

is glamour dressers always has been 400 slots? or did they increase the cap?

gloomy ice
#

Yeah, the daily bills show you the kind and number of monsters you need to kill. For the weeklies, you'll get a small pop up on your screen if the monster you need is nearby. A ranks have no such assistance but you'll know them when you see them. S ranks are almost always big draws and tend to attract large crowds.

twilit arch
#

it originally had a limit of 200

#

was raised to 400

rough lance
#

when was that?

#

i'm hitting 200 slots already lol thinking i will hit cap soon haha

gloomy ice
#

Glam chest was last expanded with the launch of Shadowbringers

twilit arch
#

Yeah it was raised with 5.0

rough lance
#

ouch

thorny spruce
#

is there a tab to see the list of clan hunt or none?

rough lance
#

i better start to clear some eqs haha

gloomy ice
#

Accepted hunt bills appear in your key items window

rough lance
#

should i buy a full set of facet for my crafters 1st? while i wait for the new set to b release soon?

gloomy ice
#

White scrip gear, namely the Professional's set, is better than unmelded Facet. Full melded Facet is better than Professional's but with how close 5.3 is, fully melds would be a bad investment.

rough lance
#

i'm lvl 80 but using lvl 70s eqs lol

#

nono i'm jus getting a normal set of facet or dwarven?

whole wasp
#

That said, you might need fully melded facer to craft the next tier so its a gamble.

dense pier
#

Uh

#

How do i get to my Lv.23 Eureka quest?

#

It looks like it's in a giant icicle?

whole wasp
#

Its above you i thinj

dense pier
#

How the fuck what

rough lance
#

it's actually hard to get white scrips without a lvl 80 gear

dense pier
#

How am I supposed to traverse there

rough lance
#

so i thinking of getting a temp lvl 80 gear

whole wasp
#

You have to go through the dragon pass. Up and around then drop on the ledge from above. Pagos right?

dense pier
#

Yeah

#

idk where dragon's pass is

rough lance
#

wonder if a clean or 2materia melded facet will b good enough at least to farm and get white scrips

whole wasp
#

Keep trying to head north and east from the starting area. (Hug the cliff) you'll find it

#

Its before the rabbits FATE

rough lance
#

or i should jus risk lvl 70s eqs trying to craft dwarven to exchange for white scrips?

dense pier
#

North-east makes me hit a deadend

whole wasp
#

Dwarven should be cheap. Can try looking for it.

dense pier
gloomy ice
#

Custom delivery gives white scrips if you’re a level 80

whole wasp
#

Thats too far away.

twilit arch
#

you're too far north

whole wasp
#

Its in between the startig town and rabbit FATE

dense pier
#

Well I saw no way up

#

Oh

#

Well, I teleported back thinking that might be where you meant so

twilit arch
#

the lvl 23 quest is below where taxim spawn's

whole wasp
#

Oh crap. I thought its at the lab.

rough lance
#

i checked handking cap and dwarven cap.. it's only 5 control difference... i don think it will make a big diff if i change to that set

whole wasp
#

Listen to kael

dense pier
#

Idk where Taxim spawns

twilit arch
#

!faq pagosmap

zinc orbitBOT
#
Error!

No tag named pagosmap exists, Kupo!

twilit arch
rough lance
#

or dwarven set 2materia melded is enough to get silver scrips?

dense pier
#

Yeah

#

I see that

#

It does nothing for me

#

I can't get in to where it was Lv.23 Quest

#

It's a giant icicle that reaches to the sky

gloomy ice
#

Collectible turn ins to Zhloe, M’naago, Kurenai, and Adkiragh give white scrips

rough lance
#

oh

jade quartz
#

There err

twilit arch
#

its not in the sky

jade quartz
#

Shouldn’t be any obstacles in your way of getting there

twilit arch
#

its in that little nook

dense pier
#

Yes

#

I went there

jade quartz
#

Just walk into that location

dense pier
#

I did

#

I wasn't even the only one circling the whole area

#

I'll try and go again and see if I missed something I guess

twilit arch
jade quartz
#

Should be just an interactable on the ground

gloomy ice
#

Since you’re a level 80, you can use the Trained Eye skill to demolish any of the collectible crafts those four throw at you. @rough lance

jade quartz
#

If it is not present perhaps you are not on that quest step

gloomy ice
#

The first two rank of Kai-Shirr’s turn ins are also level 70 and eligible for Trained Eye use

hmmmmm

Last I saw was they told me to go scour the river

#

I don't see another 21, or 22 quest on the map

#
[7:46]The quantity of aether with which your kettle is currently infused is represented by a gauge during your expedition.```
What
twilit arch
#

basically, light farming

#

you have a chance of getting "light" when you kill normal mobs, with certain mobs giving more light in general. Mutated mobs will give light, as will NMs.

#

dragon farming or anubis farming is/was pretty common

#

kettle can only hold 9 iirc, so you need to go to the forge every so often to get the frosted protean crystals

cbis for crafter waist is swallowskin tool belt?

So I have master carpenter 1-4 how do I get others beyond them?

Can you only see NM in areas you have discovered in Eureka?

im having trouble with my controller targeting teammates a lot often than monsters. How can i make this better?

slate arrow

Controller or Keyboard?

#

Controller: up and down on the DPAD goes through your party list

#

keyboard: f1-f8 targets each player in that slot by default

#

additionally, you can set target filters on controllers

@dense pier no you can see all spawned NMs on the map regardless if you've seen that area

leaden ginkgo

whats like the best job in ff14 to not rely on others? xD

unique oasis
#

there's not really a great answer to that

#

but maaaaaaaaaaaybe healers could be construed as the closest answer

#

but in a lot of the group content especially the more serious kind

#

any player can screw it up for the rest

slate arrow
#

The best answer is there is no answer

#

all of the content is balanced around the parties which can queue into them on release

jade quartz
#

If you play healer then you don’t have to rely on others to help you get fast dungeon queues uwucarby

dense pier
#

What should I be aiming for in Eureka if soloing. Big pulls for group kills or small pulls and work up a chain?

#

cause I can kill 4-5 monsters at a time that are +1 level than me

#

Giving me 13k exp each

slate arrow
#

either or. If you're going for mobs at or above your level it's safer to do smaller pulls

#

If you're going for mobs below your level then pull to your hearts desire after setting your magica wheel

dense pier
#

Holy heck, I just CHUNKED through my exp-bar.

I got into a nice rhythm and found a good way to keep chain-pulling mobs and maintaining 4-5 +1 lvl mobs on me and killing them all

#

It sucks that chain caps at 30

jade quartz
#

Are you doing eureka challenge log btw?

dense pier
#

Yup, mass-pulling is how I finished it so quickly

I literally just gained 1 level in less than 30min

That's the new player icon

molten spruce
#

ahhh

#

and on the bottom right of my screen theres little circles

#

what are they

gloomy ice
#

The main menu. Character, Duty, Logs, Travel, Party, Social, and System menus. In order from left to right.

glass oxide
#

I think the inventory ?

#

Are they green and grey ?

charred hatch
#

Is it trials that don't give exp? Like if I wanna do ultima's ballad or gardua hard?

jade quartz
#

They don’t give any exp worth speaking of.

#

Garuda Hard is mandatory for progressing the main story though

lofty pulsar
#

for beast tribe quest (pixie), only a couple are available everyday right? and I'm guessing I have to progress in rep before I can do the nest main quest for it?

charred hatch
#

Oh yeah I've done those like. Just want to play around without levelling up

slate arrow
#

The only reason to do trials is via trial roullete since the small exp bonus is quite decent

jade quartz
#

Three daily@lofty pulsar quests a day

#

Whoa weird ping location

gloomy ice
#

3 per tribe, per day. Unless you rank up, in which case you get 3 bonus allowances for all but the last rank.

lofty pulsar
#

cool, and how do I accept the next main quest for the tribe?

gloomy ice
#

And, yeah, the non-repeatable story quests for beast tribes at each rank up.

ok

You can view your progress towards the next story quest (reputation rank up) in the tribe in the character menu->Reputation tab

at a forge

Where, how

#

ok

gloomy scroll
#

that's hidden by a drop down next to a dragonm

dense pier
#

Wait what

gloomy scroll
#

Eureka Pagos - Test Cavern 1-P (6.1-21.5)

#

follow down south until the ledge

#

and aim your drop down the cliff onto another ledge, you'll probably see the sleeping dragon

#

just walk your way around it and go thorugh the cavern, where the crystal forge is on your left

jade quartz
#

Make sure it’s the drop all the way to the west of the clifftop

gloomy scroll
#

also be extra careful not to draw aggro out of the corpse flowers too, but you can just /sh for a raise

#

a lot of people tend to go there after the King Athro NM too, so you could just follow them to be extra careful

any way i can re-buy the starting weapons for HW jobs

now what is an ARMS vendor 😄

maybe i am just dumb

so do i only get bonus if i do roullete when my role is in need?

#

Hello, Are the dungeons locked behind the relic weapons? Or zones that only unlock if I do them?

#

Thanks

faint flare
#

Arr relic has 2 trials

#

Thats unique to it

#

Shadowbringers relic has Gangos zone for it which is small for now

jade quartz
#

And Memoria Misera EX trial

faint flare
#

And stormblood relic is entirely of eureka if you count that

wintry chasm
#

Eureka being 4 zones and a 56-man dungeon thing

faint flare
#

Though the relic isn't required for the zones, just buying stuff from vendors

wintry chasm
#

Mmm

frigid solar
#

Ok I just finished ( part 1 of Stormblood ) and haven’t done any of the relic weapons.. I’ll I want is to be able to access those zones ( and not be locked out of any dungeon )

wintry chasm
#

I mean

simple shore
#

Not really worth bothering with until you're done with story up through current stuff

faint flare
#

No one really does the arr trials much

wintry chasm
#

These zones are kept to themselves

faint flare
#

Cause easily unsynced

frigid solar
#

Oh

#

But are they in the roulette?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Doesn't really show up much

frigid solar
#

Snap :/

faint flare
#

Havent seen it in years

simple shore
#

If anything, having them unlocked is worse. Because that means you can get them, lol.

frigid solar
#

Are they not fun?

faint flare
#

They're 😴

frigid solar
#

I loved Doma Castle dungeon that was a blast

#

Oh

faint flare
#

You just fight a chimera and a hydra

#

Thats it

#

Falls over real fast

jade quartz
#

They're fast

#

there is no drawback to getting them

#

getting them in trial roulette is nice.

#

Having them unlocked is not worse.

frigid solar
#

Mmm I’ll unlock them on a later date I guess

simple shore
#

Personally, on this second time through, i made a point of unlocking as little as possible so that i'd be less likely to get things without new player bonuses until i was "done".

frigid solar
#

Mmm ok thanks for everyone input I’ll keep it in mind before making a Decision

#

Are the eureka relics quest worth it?

faint flare
#

If you want shiny stuff

frigid solar
#

No no I don’t

faint flare
#

And the glowing eureka armour

frigid solar
#

I hate shiny things :/

faint flare
#

Or the demi ozma mount

wintry chasm
#

All relics have their own stories but it's mostly a glamour thing

frigid solar
#

Ok

#

I want the Demi Ozma mount badly tho

faint flare
#

Then gotta do eureka, you dont need the weapon but you'll want it

#

Cause the eureka effect

#

Which makes it stronger in eureka specifically

obsidian patio
#

upgrading the weapon for Eureka Bonus is actually the least efficient upgrade in terms of cost

frigid solar
#

Is there a specific way to unlocking the Demi Ozma? Or by just doing the quest of eureka I’ll get it eventually?

faint flare
#

Its Something.likeg

#

You do baldesion arsenal

jade quartz
#

Completion of Baldesion Arsenal gives an achievement which rewards Demi-Ozma.

faint flare
#

Which is the 56man raid

frigid solar
#

Snap

jade quartz
#

So you're guaranteed the mount from one clear of BA.

frigid solar
#

Oh okay but what does this have to do with eureka?

faint flare
#

Its inside eureka

frigid solar
#

Snap

jade quartz
#

Baldesion Arsenal is at the end of the Eureka story.

gloomy ice
#

And is inaccessible until the very end yeah

faint flare
#

And uses the elemental level and logograms

frigid solar
#

Don’t know what that is

jade quartz
#

It's a fair time investment, but there are active Discord servers who run and clear it often.

frigid solar
#

But I guess I’ll learn from the eureka quests

#

Ohhh tell me more

jade quartz
#

I don't know the links for EU datacentre ones

frigid solar
#

Snap

faint flare
#

The eurekan Explorer discord probably has it all

jade quartz
#

But basically 7 parties of 8 get together and spend about two hours.

#

Not including preparation time

#

The raid is not exactly hard, but it is punishing of mess-ups and has some weird quirks.

faint flare
#

Very limited raises inside as well, can't raise normally

jade quartz
#

Raising people requires a resource and is time-consuming (healer uses a skill to sacrifice themselves to heal you, and hope their automatic auto-self-raise thing procs)

obsidian patio
#

!action sacrifice L

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Sacrifice L** : lvl 0 WHM SCH AST (2.5 second cooldown)(3.0 second base cast time)

Additional Effect: Grants a 70% chance of automatic revival upon KO
Duration: 180m

jade quartz
#

If the raid wipes, there's no retrying, gotta try the whole instance again

#

The final boss has a mechanic which, if failed, sucks you out of the raid and dumps you back outside haha

frigid solar
#

Ok.. well that’s just not cool

jade quartz
#

Trash mobs hit hard and have to be handled carefully.

#

However, if everyone's coordinated, the mechanics themselves are actually mostly very easy.

acoustic island
#

does the msq skip unlock classes too?

jade quartz
#

@acoustic island No. Getting an MSQ skip without getting a job leveling skip also is shooting yourself in the foot.

frigid solar
#

Does anyone have the discord or know what I should search for in google for the Eureka raid?

faint flare
#

Eurekan Explorer discord

#

For all things eureka

jade quartz
frigid solar
#

Ok thanks everyone 🙂 until next time

jade quartz
frigid solar
#

Sweet thanks

acoustic island
#

my friend is starting the game with the level boost can the first character you unlock be a locked class? or gotta go with the default roster?

faint flare
#

You can boost any job you can buy it for

acoustic island
#

but can he start the game as a gunbreaker?

faint flare
#

No

#

Cause there's no boost

wintry chasm
#

Theoretically yes

faint flare
#

For Shadowbringers jobs

#

But you can technically boost another job and unlock it normally

wintry chasm
#

You can boost another job past level 60 and unlock it

#

Yeah

jade quartz
#

He could boost another job so that he can pick up the level 60 quest to unlock Gunbreaker

#

mm

wintry chasm
#

Same thing as starting as a Gunbreaker

#

Just an extra step

faint flare
#

So no but Techincally yes

jade quartz
#

Then he'd be starting as a level 60 gunbreaker basically.

Starting with a level boost for a first time player is.....kind of a bad idea, if you ask me.

acoustic island
#

so pretty much if he has no character he has to start with a default roster

wintry chasm
#

Just pick one of the starting ones yes

jade quartz
#

If he is experienced with MMOs and/or willing to learn then it's OK to do

wintry chasm
#

And boost that and then he can unlock Gunbreaker

jade quartz
#

if he really wants to

obsidian patio
#

again, you choose any job to start as, then you use the jump potion, and then you go to gridania to unlock gunbreaker.

jade quartz
#

not that we'd usually recommend it

faint flare
#

You can boost expansion jobs like dark knight since it unlocks it for you

obsidian patio
#

so if they want to be gunbreaker ASAP then you'd make your starting class Archer, Lancer, or Conjurer as they start in gridania

acoustic island
#

oh so he can start as an expansion job if he buys the boost

faint flare
#

If you can buy a boost for it

#

You can get it

#

Job boosts complete all job quests for it

obsidian patio
#

you just can't directly boost the current expansion's jobs, being Gunbreaker and Dancer.

acoustic island
#

i see

faint flare
#

Including the initial unlocks

#

All but Shadowbringers jobs can be boosted

acoustic island
#

so its okay for red mage and samurai

#

and previous expac

wintry chasm
#

Yeah

acoustic island
#

ok thank you

faint flare
#

Yes, kinda a waste since those start at 50

#

But i digress

frigid solar
#

Is it easier to get Omega mount as I’d like him too?

#

Or her

#

It

obsidian patio
#

compared to BA? definitely

#

though you still need to know a good amount of the mechanics

gloomy ice
#

That requires clearing Omega 12 savage. Potentially multiple times since you could lose the drop. But, yeah, much easier to get in to than BA

frigid solar
#

Fair enough I’ll get to my video games in that case.. wish me luck

faint flare
#

You still have to respect mechanics like Patch and Hello, world

#

But dps checks are easy unsynced

Does gear matter in ocean fishing?

junior tundra
#

||are the warriors of darkness the same people in the original realm reborn trailer||

simple shore
#

No

junior tundra
#

who is that a response to

simple shore
#

You

gloomy ice
#

Stats do matter for Ocean Fishing but it seems to be a little lenient.

#

Well, they’re important if you’re going for the achievements. If not, or if you’re just leveling, you should be fine with basic stuff.

vocal shell
#

i see, thanks!

obsidian patio
#

for the most part you just want a lot of GP to use Patience/Double Hook/Identical Cast more often

mossy tartan
#

what is the best way to obtain alexandrite?

honest mountain
#

for relic qquest?

#

That would be Mysterious Maps

smoky glade
#

is there a way to copy one HUD layout to another? i want to have 1 and 2 similar but also different depending on if i use kb/m or controller

tiny river
#

hey guys, where can i ask about my technical issues?

faint flare
mossy tartan
#

Yes, after finishing animus relic

faint flare
#

Would be best

tiny river
#

thanks

mossy tartan
#

Can the image of a treasure’s whereabouts be flipped compared to the original area in the map?

median locust
#

It can't

mossy tartan
#

perfect, thank you

acoustic island
#

how do i get ticket to gold saucer? stuck on sultanas duty

median locust
#

Like how to get there? There's an unlock quest right in front of the Uldah Aetheryte

#

If you're already there, what does the objective say?

acoustic island
#

go to gold saucer

#

but i dont have a ticket

median locust
#

you don't need a ticket

#

If you've already been there you can teleport

warped pawn
#

iirc you get there via airship

#

if you can't teleport

acoustic island
median locust
#

Do you have the gold saucer unlocked?

#

have you ever been there?

faint flare
#

The quest "it Could happen to you" takes you there

warped pawn
faint flare
#

By the uldah aetheryte

warped pawn
#

make sure to do all of these quests

acoustic island
#

got it ty

#

where can i find a compiled source

agile laurel
#

Didn't they say they were planning to rework the glamour system like... a hilariously long time ago?

jade quartz
#

They did by introducing glamour plates

#

and the dresser

agile laurel
#

nah, I meant again

jade quartz
#

Also threw out the 40 different types of glamour prisms haha

#

they haven't spoken about an entire rework since then, no

agile laurel
#

ew. okay

jade quartz
#

they've spoken about their intention to continue improving the glamour dresser system

#

i.e. making plates changeable from anywhere, not just cities

#

more slots

#

etc.

agile laurel
#

was holding out hope that they were even planning to do something like, oh idk, remove the idiot cap on glamour plates

faint flare
#

Yes please changing plates anywhere

#

👏

agile laurel
#

if I had to choose between that and no cap on plates then sorry chief

jade quartz
#

There's always gonna be a cap of some kind due to server limitations

vernal girder
#

For the people that reached end game. What would be a good item (with good Gil value) to gift that they would want? (Mogstore aside)

median locust
#

Really depends what the person likes, but I'm a fan of some of the SB primal minions (Byakko Cub, Scarlet Peacock, Wind-Up Shinryu)

#

Not too expensive but still kinda expensive

vernal girder
#

I see, thanks for the advice! :]

agile laurel
#

or something from maps

#

materials, capybara, talos

vernal girder
#

Don’t know what the last two are, but I’ll search it up! Tyty

agile laurel
#

minions from maps - should've clarified

vernal girder
#

Got it o7

median locust
#

!iglam Rebel Coat

zinc orbitBOT
median locust
#

If they don't have this, it's a good coat

silent pulsar
#

hello!

#

do the botanist / miner / etc jobs do u any good early game?

jade quartz
#

Can do 'em if you want

#

totally optional

#

personally I'd recommend focusing on the MSQ with your combat class first

tidal yarrow
jade quartz
#

but there's not really any drawback to doing gatherers

#

just time

median locust
#

Means they're on a different world server

#

And you can click that to refresh their current status

vernal girder
#

Fashionable! But I’ll have to ask if they have! Saved for future reference ^^

tidal yarrow
#

but doesn't the red symbol that "fallen" has mean they're on different server?

silent pulsar
#

ohhh thanks !

median locust
#

It means they're in an instance like a dungeon, raid, etc

jade quartz
#

That one means in duty @tidal yarrow

faint flare
#

The red arrow box means they're in a duty/instance

silent pulsar
#

think i will just go and grind levels on my combast class

median locust
#

Not another server

tidal yarrow
#

ohh okay!

#

so like, I will show as red symbol if I'm on a duty to my friends in my server

faint flare
#

Yes

merry raft
#

Does someone have the pyros and hydatos SMN weapons and can send me 1 or 2 screenshots of them?

median locust
#

The Hydatos weapons link is in their desc

#

Does this work?

merry raft
#

thanks alot

west swallow
#

what do I do with ungraded material from Diladiem?

agile laurel
#

approve it at the NPC next to the diadem queue up point

#

then craft stuff, sell it, or get rid

median locust
#

You can only approve 10 of it at once, also

#

so if you have like 5, just throw it away or save for when you get more

west swallow
#

ooh

#

That why I have 5 left

glass oxide
#

Is there any studios in Chaos DC ? Or is that just Japanese servers thing ?

agile laurel
#

uh, you mean apartments?

#

they're not a server specific thing

forest laurel
#

I think they mean photo studios yeah

agile laurel
#

availability might vary, but

#

Oh

forest laurel
#

I made my apartment into a very basic photo studio

agile laurel
#

well yeah you just make them in your apartment

#

whether there are any or not, i don't know

#

but I doubt they're difficult or expensive to make, beside the cost of the land

forest laurel
#

there definitely should be ppl with photo studios on Chaos, you just have to look

#

yeah

#

the apartments are like 500k, but the screens themselves used for the backgrounds are very cheap

#

if you're in an FC and they have a house you could also buy private chambers for 300k and turn those into a photo studio

glass oxide
#

Was actually looking for ones open to public like they do in the JP DC

#

Where you go and take pictures and leave

agile laurel
#

again, no reason why there shouldn't be any

#

although i doubt it'd be well documented knowledge

#

try asking around ingame

glass oxide
#

They are quite common in Mana so I was wondering about Chaos

#

I see

#

Thank you

forest laurel
#

that, and looking at the apartments yourself in different servers, wards and housing areas

marble drift
#

considering you're generally looking for a green-screen right? probably better to use an FC room

#

cheaper and its basically just a couple walls. not like you're doing decoration

hot dock
#

What is the drop mechanics for eden normal and savage

marble drift
#

Normal drops the same tokens every clear

#

you need X tokens for a piece of gear

#

1 for accessories, 1 for belt

#

2 for helm, hands and feet

#

4 for legs and chest

#

the types of token are based on the floor.

faint flare
#

Savage drops coffers and upgrade mats for allegory (depending on floor) but you only have one CHANCE to loot as much as you want from each floor. Regardless how much you get, you can't roll on further clears that week and you reduce the number of chests. You also receive a book per fight per week

#

You must clear savage in order every week, skipping floors immediately forfeits all loot rights on skipped floors

#

Even if you never touch the boss

marble drift
#

These are the tokens that drop from normal eden floors

#

you can get 1 of these per week until they lift the restriction

median locust
#

For Eden's Gate, the restrictions are already gone, for both normal and Savage.
For Eden's Verse, the restrictions above apply

wanton herald
#

hi, any advice/tips for a relatively new player (level 16) starting out as a conjurer? would greatly appreciate any.

marble drift
#

Suck

faint flare
#

!faq newplayertips

zinc orbitBOT
marble drift
#

suck on purpose

#

also that

forest laurel
#

please actually deal damage, the tank doesn't have to be at 100% hp the whole time

marble drift
#

yeah this aint wow. healer dps is legit

forest laurel
#

in FF14, EVERYONE is a dps.

#

there's dps, dps that can tank, and dps that can heal.

marble drift
#

Tanky dps. Dps with a side job. Only Dps

#

Astro gets 1 step further and its a Dps with a side job with a side job

#

heh

#

Gunbreaker capitalizes those last 3 letters hard with its playstyle

wanton herald
#

i see. i should prioritize finishing the MSQ/class quests right ?

forest laurel
#

yes

faint flare
#

Yes

forest laurel
#

focus on msq and bluequest

faint flare
#

Both are mandatory

forest laurel
#

the big one is your MSQ msq
the smaller one at the bottom is your job quest and they always have bluequest

#

ALWAYS do them because they can unlock gear and actions.

#

and content is gated behind MSQ

marble drift
#

uhh isnt relic weaponry have the sidequest symbol? o_o

median locust
#

No

faint flare
#

Relics are blue

marble drift
#

right sorry thats what I meant

#

bluequest.

#

cause those can be safely skipped

median locust
#

bluequest means they'll unlock something.

#

Doesn't matter what it is

wanton herald
#

ok. thanks a lot :)

forest laurel
median locust
#

tl;dr you don't heal until you can DPS, you DPS until you have to heal

forest laurel
#

yeah

#

you have to find a balance between healing and dpsing

#

also as a healer, when someone dies, ALWAYS use swiftcast and raise together. don't hardcast raise unless you know everyone else, especially you, is 100% safe.

median locust
#

Yeah it's 7 whole seconds of casting, a lot can happen during that

wanton herald
#

whats swiftcast ?

forest laurel
#

a spell that instantly allows you to cast the next spell.

marble drift
#

a role action

median locust
#

!action Swiftcast

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Swiftcast** : lvl 18 CNJ THM ACN WHM BLM SMN SCH AST RDM BLU (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Next spell is cast immediately.
Duration: 10s

marble drift
#

all healers and casters get it

warped pawn
#

it good

forest laurel
#

very gud

marble drift
#

super gud

median locust
#

Unlocks at lv18 on all casters and healers

warped nest
#

Gud for all of them (yes, even for red Mage)

wanton herald
#

ahh ok i see the rationale behind swiftcast + raise

#

thanks

agile laurel
#

don't fuss too much about dealing aoe damage for now, just pick a target and spam stone if you've got downtime

#

at 50 you get holy which is arguably the best aoe spam

median locust
#

45 but yes

agile laurel
#

oo

wanton herald
#

thanks :)

agile laurel
#

i also find it's good to consider presence of mind at level 30 a tool for either increased dps, or 'i don't have swiftcast and i must raise'

#

but that's without getting into specifics for thirsty whm dps

drifting atlas
#

Is red mage bad of sucks in dps ?

median locust
#

No, game's very well balanced so there isn't a job that sucks

agile laurel
#

red mage kinda ends up being quite a high output sometimes just due to its relative simplicity and how much easier it is to maintain uptime through mechanics

#

unrelated: in terms of 'i am level 70 and must reach 71' is ghimlyt the best spam or would it be equally worth spamming anything from ghimlyt-ala mhigo range? (anything at 70 cap)

fallow sonnet
#

Is housing max timer 22hrs?

median locust
#

It's always the highest levelling dungeons you can queue for, so here it would be Castrum Abania (lv69)

#

Level cap dungeons were never meant to give good exp

#

As far as I know yes, the max is 22 hours, but I've seen someone say 48 hours before so I don't know for certain

mossy tartan
#

What is the last materia grade to infuse for a sphere scroll?

fallow sonnet
#

I see

median locust
#

Goes up to tier IV iirc

fallow sonnet
#

This house is at 14hrs lol

mossy tartan
#

It doesn’t let me infuse anything anymore

#

regardless of tier

#

74/75

median locust
#

Can you screenshot the sphere scroll menu?

mossy tartan
#

sure
