little swift
you can't really start as astrologian
warped nest
@lavish vortex press option to open the menu, 2nd column from the left, one of them should be Journal
forest laurel
whm will teach you some stuff about healing first because it's the only healer you can start with
so it's best to go that
faint flare
Yes
ionic hazel
or....
faint flare
If you want to reuse it in the future
lime geode
White mage is fun - I started it and I'm currently @ lvl 62.
faint flare
You'll need to keep it around
leaden ginkgo
if the PF says practice, what happens if you clear it
ionic hazel
If i sold it, can i get it back
lime geode
But I haven't tried tank yet 🙂
faint flare
Depends on the item
leaden ginkgo
like for savage
faint flare
Most stuff you can get back
ionic hazel
or are there similar items that have the same look
little swift
there are items that share models as well
warped nest
Usually there are, but they come in small difference
little swift
and most items are readily reobtainable
lavish vortex
@warped nest yeah, it’s empty...🥺
warped nest
Some variation can't be dyed
celest herald
If you have to keep all glamour pieces physically, do we get lots of storage space?
warped nest
Post the question again, see if other players can help you with that
celest herald
okay so it’s a separate inventory
little swift

Hi! Where in the journal can I view this! I can’t find it
warped nest
Pressing triangle in the journal should allow you to see quests you have completed
ionic hazel
alright thanks for the answers, i think ill focus on leveling first than looking good
warped nest
I am not familiar with this quest line tbh
lavish vortex
Yeah, but since they are quests that I cannot complete due to not meeting requirements... I can’t find them
The specific case is the next job quest for samurai...
remote lintel
if you already unlocked samurai then level up
lavish vortex
But then that message is wrong? How can I review the subsequent quest?
leaden ginkgo
Is there a way I can participate in the ongoing events as a newish player? (my character is level 12)
little swift
Is there a way I can participate in the ongoing events as a newish player? (my character is level 12)
@leaden ginkgo depending on the requirement of the event you usually can participate
lavish vortex
Yeah, @remote lintel that’s another way, I just wanted to see if there was a way to check in in game in the journal, as the game suggests... but I think it’s like a bug of incorrect
ionic hazel
Do you guys have any "guild" recommendations for new players
little swift
the quest begins in ul'dah so if you're not able to access that city you'll have to play a tad more to do it
lavish vortex
So I’ll have to google it every no and then, no that it’s a problem haha thanks!!
ionic hazel
@remote lintel ill take u up on that offer @_@
im in siren tho
and idk what world thats in
little swift
siren is Aether
lavish vortex
But then I already met the requirements, that’s why it shows up jaja
ionic hazel
ah thanks
remote lintel
i'm not the leader
leaden ginkgo
So basically I just run the fates of the event and I get tokens to exchange for prizes?
little swift
this one is just quest completion gives it to you
little swift
and the last item is vendor purchased
ionic hazel
Is this healthy
ionic hazel
little swift
you're welcome to play as long as you want
ionic hazel
little swift
just make sure you get up and circulate blood through your legs
remote lintel
wait the event is going on right now
leaden ginkgo
ok, I don't really like the hat, but I suppose it's a one time event
celest herald
Can you dye each part of the costume sets at the mog station separately?
remote lintel
if it's dyeable yes
little swift
each part as in individual pieces
remote lintel
some mog items aren't dyeable for whatever infernal reason
little swift
not all equippable items can be dyeable
ionic hazel
ive been lied to, DECEIT
remote lintel
dyeable items have a clear circle on the corner of their icon
ionic hazel
oh, i thought those were just damage indicators
remote lintel
wat
dusty jungle
If you hover the item on the store page, the link under Purchase Includes, the popup will include a bit that says dyable: yes or not under the repairs section
ionic hazel
can you favorite items so you dont accidentally sell gear you wanna use as a mog later
remote lintel
no
ionic hazel
what a cruel world 
steep heron
You can place them in the Glamour Dresser as storage
remote lintel
^
ionic hazel
i cant repair any of my gear
celest herald
Are there glamour contests as a side thing?
ionic hazel
whys that
ionic hazel
theres a repair guy?!
remote lintel
faint flare
Thats only if you level crafters
remote lintel
repair people are the hammer icons on the map
little swift
that requires crafters
faint flare
There's repair NPCs marked on the map
sick glen
can someone have both scholar and summoner?
remote lintel
yes
faint flare
Yes
sick glen
how
faint flare
You can be everything
remote lintel
you have separate classes?
ionic hazel
Where can I repair my gear then
faint flare
Repair npcs marked on map
tidal yarrow
how much is the werewolf set on mog?
celest herald
when you swap class, does all your glamour/gear change as well? Or do you have to manually re equip the gear?
I mean job
remote lintel
if you made a gear set and linked it to a glamour plate it auto equips gear
and applies glam
indigo orbit
If your class can’t equip the current gear it’s unequipped
The solution is gear sets as just mentioned
remote lintel
like if you were a samurai you would equip all your sam gear and save it as a gear set and link it to glamour plate 5 or whatever
then you would equip all your white mage gear and save as gear set and link it
then you can switch between the 2 at the click of a button
celest herald
ok got it. That’s a life saver lol
indigo orbit
You can have a gear set for every class and then some
leaden ginkgo
Is it possible to use my mount before level 20 main story quest?
faint flare
No
indigo orbit
You need to complete the quest “My Little Chocobo” to use a mount
remote lintel
to unlock mounts
indigo orbit
Even if you have the preorder ones already they don’t work until you unlock the chocobo
I think that quest is gonna become mandatory in the future
leaden ginkgo
yeah, I wondered because I have my preorder mount but wasn't able to use it
indigo orbit
It’s kinda like how you have to buy Riding training in WoW
Only instead of money you buy the license with company seals which are super easy to get
ionic hazel
Is there an auto target enemy macro or its better to just tab target
faint flare
Tab
tidal yarrow
did they increase prices on mog?
remote lintel
no?
remote lintel
you can change the currency
tidal yarrow
alright!
leaden ginkgo
so free companies have "company chests" to store items, but why would you store items? So that you dont lose them on battles or raids or whatever?
remote lintel
so that stuff for the FC doesnt take up space in your retainer?
and so that other people can take stuff they need
molten spruce
how do i get princess trout?
leaden ginkgo
right I see. but can you lose your gear when battling or raiding or something?
faint flare
No
remote lintel
faint flare
It can break bur you'll stilk have it
remote lintel
@molten spruce
molten spruce
do i need to join a guild for fishing?
remote lintel
you join the fishing guild to unlock fishing
light sail
anyone know where you get the king slime hat from the new event? I only got the minion and the yellow hat right from finishing the quest
molten spruce
fishermen guild doesnt have a supplier?
remote lintel
they supply bait
leaden ginkgo
as for making my character to look better, should I look into glamour dresser thing or purchasing gear that looks good?
remote lintel
both if you can afford it
leaden ginkgo
you talking about gills or real money?
remote lintel
either?
leaden ginkgo
ah I thought it was for customizing gear or something lol hmm
remote lintel
it's for making plates
faint flare
Nope, just stores stuff and alloes you to make presets with said stored items
steel wedge
Guys does anyone remember where the underwater tunnel is for the quest The Resont?
Resonant*
I see a tunnel with snowflakes is that where I’m supposed to go?
faint flare
Highly likely if i recall
leaden ginkgo
should I be running guild leves on my new (main) character?
remote lintel
for what
leaden ginkgo
I don't know, it's the first leve quest
steel wedge
But I’m very confused because I get to a certain point and there’s a no way to get through the tunnel
leaden ginkgo
so I guess field/trade leves are the only useful ones later on then
steel wedge
Does anyone remember where the underwater tunnel is in the mission for stormblood?
noble tusk
what button is to hide all UI on your screen? forgot
remote lintel
scroll lock
noble tusk
thanks
faint flare
Thats the 2nd boss/
Dont let the NPC in the centre die
Walk into the orbs summoned from the portals to stop them going to the npc
And heal the npc if they take damage
Otherwise smack the thing
slate crow
We all died at once.
little swift

If you’re DPS then waiting is expected to happen, queue times are generally around 10-20 minutes depending on the dungeon
remote lintel
it automatically matchmakes you
wise portal
I feel like I may just not understand Party Finder. Have been told a bunch it’s the best way to run old content, unsync wait for folks to join. But whenever I look in PF, even prime time, it’s very sparse and all I see are people selling stuff and RP.
remote lintel
did you change the tab
jade saddle
What is the AoE which is a very dark circle with horn-like things rising up around the perimeter?
jade saddle
thanks!
molten spruce
where do i pick up lvl 52 dragoon job quest?
acoustic island

you can ignore both and be fine, but they print gil so do em
remote lintel
culinarian can be leveled separately

crafting here is fun, eso crafting is boring and simple af

is there a qol level guide for crafts
molten spruce
bc i got a notif saying i could do the next job quest but he isnt giving me a quest
do i need to complete post ARR quests?
faint flare
Yes
molten spruce
ahhhh thats why
faint flare
You cant do lv50+ job quests without being in heavensward
Each expansion job quest set are locked to those expansion stories
molten spruce
is postARR fillers? or should i read?
molten spruce
ok
median barn
is it possible to re-do the sb dungeons with the trust thingy?
or just a one time thing
faint flare
Shadowbringers dungeons yes
ionic hazel
Should I buy gear
faint flare
Only the story dungeons
median barn
how do you do it? cant find in df
ionic hazel
remote lintel
its a separate menu
faint flare
You open the Trust window
remote lintel
the msq gives you enough gear
faint flare
You will need to level your trusts up
median barn
oh no
faint flare
You get ||Yshtola, ryne, thancred, alphinaud, alisae and Urianger||
Each level seperately
You cant use ||Exarch or Lyna||
pastel knoll
Where can I find a good updated ps4 hotbar setup for SMN?

You need to finish 1 role quest line for the story
Otherwise you wont br able to finish Shadowbringers base story
You'll be locked

It happens at lv79 and you need to be 80 to finish the role quests

Yes. Limsas market npcs should have some
neat raptor
If I would like mount increase, is it more efficient to buy them with irregular tomes or get them the traditional way?
soft jay
@faint flare i tried to turn them in the firmament, but iy doesn't allow me to? Is there something im doing wrong
neat raptor
Thank you
neat raptor
What is the most efficient way to farm irregular tomes?
soft jay
So all those that i crafted is wasted?
obsidian patio
If they’re all 1, then yes.
molten spruce
i dont get this fishing shit, for my culinary quest i need to deliver grilled trout but i cant use the bait needed
soft jay
Omg ok tks again

@neat raptor from what I heard the PVP duty goes by pretty fast, but i did my grind with the daily main scenario roulette

Appreciate it @obsidian patio

Uh i want to unlock raid roulletes?
molten spruce
i have a full inventory, is there a place i can put these items?
remote lintel
in a retainer
tulip plover
Where is crystal tower?
tulip plover
Ok
silver ruin
wait you asking for alliance raid roulette or regular raid roulette?
remote lintel
crystal tower is alliance
remote lintel
the only lvl 50 8 man raid is really hard
silver ruin
yea
remote lintel
so don't do that
silver ruin
unless you wanna unsync it just for cutscenes
remote lintel

when is that?
remote lintel

tulip plover
So you need proper gear for lvl 50 alliance?

you should have most of them by post ARR

I need to find the guildhests

Idk i just want to unlock it
lavish vortex
hi!!, i saw that in some videos in raids, whenever the boss starts casting an attack or spell, a robot voice will say the name, like a voice over function every time an attack is cast... is that an in game option? can i have it on PS4?
remote lintel
huh
lavish vortex
sorry, im not familiar with ACT... but so, there's no option to do it on PS4?
remote lintel
it's not an in game feature
gloomy ice
Closest thing we can do on console is make the enemy cast bar gigantic and move it near the center of the screen. Nowhere near the audio cue but decent enough.
I’d actually recommend that to anyone. Giant cast bar is pretty nice.
lavish vortex
hahaha i see, thanks a lot guys!
yeah, specially in raiding... i have a small one just by my character, but i miss that one sometimes
ill use the one you suggest, at least in raids
acoustic island
is there a list of doh gear npc by level? can only find ones up to 49
none for 60-80
static yacht
60-70 should be in kugane iirc
jade quartz
Vendors in the relevant expansion area
static yacht
jade quartz
50–60 in Ishgard
lavish vortex
@gloomy ice whats the actual name of the cast bar in the HUD layout?
gloomy ice
I don’t recall offhand and I’m at work so can’t check. For now you can make a separate hud preset and rig the enemy list so it’s bigger and near center. Would have to toggle between hud layouts for each encounter but should work well enough until I remember 😅
lavish vortex
hahaha im not like in a rush, so if you remember when you come back, i'd appreciate it... if i need it for some specific encounter before that i can always do that last suggestion, thanks man!
found it on google, you have to split the target bar in 3 separate parts and then you can move it individually
dense pier
Outside of NN and this Discord, are spoilers against FFXIV rules?
Like can someone get in trouble for /shout'ing spoilers in Ul'dah
jade quartz
Possible case for harassment depending on context
dense pier
Not that I plan to, but just wanted to make sure. The mentors in my NN like to use "TOS" a lot
nova umbra
does this option appear in the friends list?
remote lintel
yes
nova umbra
if a sprout loses their sprout status, then i can't teleport to them anymore?
remote lintel
nope

it's a friend referal thing after a month
how hard is aurum vale with a squadron?
can't make them eat the fruit right?
little swift
the squadron ai is kinda dumb so they can just eat a lot of mechanics
but any mechanic that normally targets a player will target you
squadrons also have inflated stats to compensate for lack of ability to do mechanics too
acoustic island
how do i use field mastery skill?
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
little swift
basically you select a node
acoustic island
yes
little swift
do you have enough perception such that your hq chance isn't 0%
tulip plover
How important are beast tribe questa
little swift
they're optional but not a poor source of exp
little swift
yeah if you want to
tulip plover
Well i mean important lvling wise
remote lintel
then very important
little swift
good for alternate jobs,butnot a must on your main one
obsidian patio
The crafting ones are a nice and cheap daily option
little swift
the crafting ones are really good though
remote lintel
they give good exp for like no time
tulip plover
Okill prob slog through them latee once i hit heavensward
remote lintel
theyre in every expansion
little swift
they take time to rank up in
you can't just grind it out
because you're limited on beast leve allowances
and number of quests from a tribe
per day
twilit arch
Takes roughly 2 and a half weeks to max out a tribe
remote lintel
not really

For Eden Verse, do non-gear items like orchestrion rolls count toward the loot limit?
obsidian patio
Nope

Kk, thanks!
little swift
@somber olive char config settings
remote lintel
or hold X on pc iirc
little swift
You can just turn them off
somber olive
Do people normally keep it off or it doesn't matger?
twilit arch
idk about most people, but i personally play with all but party names turned off
feel like it makes things cleaner
tulip plover
How do riding maps work do they just let you get faster without doing the quest
?
And does thr battle music ever change?
twilit arch
hm not sure if you can use the riding map without having the first tier
but the riding maps simply give you tier 2 speed for that zone
remote lintel
battle music changes with expansions
tulip plover
Ok
twilit arch
and yeah every expansion has its own battle theme
remote lintel
every expansion has its own soundtrack
junior nest
can someone give me the current rotation for a lvl 56 DRG?
dense pier
Some of the mentors have also mentioned that talking about someone's DPS is against TOS. Is there any truth to that?
jade quartz
Chaos thrust combo, two full thrust combos with fang and claw on the end @junior nest
remote lintel
which talking about their dps would
jade quartz
Rinse and repeat
little swift
using things like hard numbers is a dead giveaway that you're using a third party tool
dense pier
Enmity can be a simple way to determine DPS in simple fights
remote lintel
not really
jade quartz
Have blood of the dragon up, use life surge on full thrust only
little swift
but saying, "hey you could cast more 
holy 
" is fine
remote lintel
because healing generates more enmity than regular dps attacks i believe
remote lintel
because healers are supposed to dps until they need to heal
jade quartz
Healing generates enmity so it confuses the position of the healer in the rankings yeah
For aggro meter
remote lintel
as a healer i've gotten automatic enmity at the beginning of fights from using a healing move
terse grail
the real question is, why would you need to talk about someones dps?
dense pier
Again this could be because I'm still leveling and healing during these expansions where there is so much catchup-armor is very little
jade quartz
But I mean you can tell whether or not a healer is doing good dps
remote lintel
@terse grail if you're doing savage
terse grail
i assumed he was in leveling content lol
jade quartz
If they’re pressing the one button they’re doing dps
junior nest
@jade quartz thanks. I just got level 56 fang and claw so i've been feeling like i am overusing that and neglecting other combos, which you basically confirmed. thanks.
dense pier
One button DPS
terse grail
theres no way to really call them out on their dps without checking their casts/buffs and knowing the job
jade quartz
In dungeons if someone is performing really poorly you may want a way to communicate that to them without directly mentioning dps numbers
alpine tide
is there a bot in ffxiv that can catch players using expletives?
jade quartz
As it can lengthen a dungeon run by a lot
jade quartz
There is a censor filter automatically @alpine tide
dense pier
I forgot what fight it was, but we literally weren't doing enough damage
dense pier
Also some fights, if you don't have enough DPS you actually have to do the mechanics!
Like Diabolos(?)
alpine tide
If the bot catches you will you get banned or something @jade quartz
dense pier
If you have enough DPS you can just burn him without doing mechanics
jade quartz
If people are circumventing the filter or using offensive language which the filter doesn’t catch you can report them via system menu > support desk > contact us
terse grail
what im trying to get at is, its very hard to call people out on their dps without revealing that your using act :/
remote lintel
well yeah turbo
jade quartz
Which turns detected offensive language into “????”
alpine tide
ah I see
acoustic island
just randomly got this notification while gathering? i'm already lvl cap what does it mean
You can now accept the next class/job quest.
These quests offer opportunities not only to earn
remote lintel
it means you have a new job quest
jade quartz
It means you haven’t done your quests
acoustic island
but i finished my job/class quest for my maxed out class
jade quartz
If you get banned for offensive language then obviously the language was severe enough to warrant a ban, and you should be banned @alpine tide
twilit arch
crafting and gathering have their own set of quests
alpine tide
Even if it was not directed to anyone?
dense pier
I have sworn quite a lot in this game, sometimes even AT people and there hasn't really been issue
jade quartz
Yes
little swift
just because you aren't directing it at someone doesn't mean its something that's okay to say
remote lintel
because no one has reported you or it wasn't that serious
jade quartz
This isn’t a difficult concept
dense pier
Kaiser, this isn't like a Blizzard game
where swearing will actually get you punished
alpine tide
Then I must've been unlucky, because I only cursed at a monster mob 🙂
dense pier
I think the GMs in FFXIV are a lot more forgiving
remote lintel
depends what you say
dense pier
Yeah
jade quartz
Spamming is disruptive to chat
remote lintel
yea

You can turn off emote chat message if you want to spam them

hi all i just wanted to ask what server i should choose i live in australi but i want one with a good community
stark jewel
hey have a question and was wondering if anyone else experience this problem and can give me any advice.. so I tried to log in with another device in and SE temprarily suspended my account for being at risk.. however i havnt recived any emails on how to fix it. i tried to change the password but it keeps wanting conformation code that was sent to email but again i dont have any mails (checked in my spam/whitelisted SE) ....
anyone had this issue before
twilit arch
@past mantle usually tonberry or kujata is recommended for aussie players. they're JP servers but they are generally better ping for y'all. that said you can try pinging the datacenters to see if NA/Eu ping isnt that bad. Behemoth iirc is known to have a somewhat decent aussie pop
past mantle
im not worried about aussie pop
leaden ginkgo
is fenrir good too? im aussie and i accidently joined that without doing much research
remote lintel
all servers have active populations
twilit arch
hmm if you're looking for an english speaking community, might have trouble on fenrir
frank ridge
Unless you know Japanese I'll still suggest you to switch worlds
leaden ginkgo
besides costing money, do you lose any progress, etc. if you request a world change?
twilit arch
nope
the only things that can't transfer with you are friendslist, free company, and housing
leaden ginkgo
oh okay
thankyou

I'm leveling an alt with the road to 70 buff. I'm thinking of getting the ARR story skip (want to do HW-ShB again). Think it's faster to level to 50 with the MSQ -> use skip. Or is it faster to just spam roulette and dungeons to lvl 50 as tank/healer? About the same time?
twilit arch
hmm
with road to 70, doing dungeons/roulettes wouldn't be nearly as quick as doing doing the msq but it also wouldn't be that slow either
so i'd say its largely up to you if you want to do msq up to 50 or just grind out via roulettes/dungeons
zinc orbitBOT
lime geode
Really? The MSQ slows down a ton and gives almost no XP in ARR once you get past ultima.
I'm in the grind right now and the quests XP is miniscule.
twilit arch
well, thats because you're at the part that was old end-game content
its not intended to level you that much, though with the road to 70 its not uncommon for people to end up at like 55~ upon entering heavensward
lime geode
To get to lvl 50 was only 2-3 days, so that was fast. But I've been in the end-game content for over a week now.
remote lintel
because there's 100 quests
lime geode
Ah. I'm 64 already but have been doing some dailies.
I had a look at the quest list - I figured I was almost done. Nope. Only about 60% through 100+ quests.
Some of it has been interesting tbh, I'm not trying to rush through it. But a lot of it is fetch quests.
lime geode
Yeah I think I'm past most of that.
Yeah I literally just started that section - patch 2.4.
leaden ginkgo
should I bother extracting grade 1 materia from spiritbonded gear?
lime geode
consensus when I asked that was no
twilit arch
theres no harm in doing it, though it might not sell for much
but there's also no need to go out of your way to do it
dense pier
This issue happens in PvE AND PvP, is there a way to fix this because this is awful and really ruins my enjoyment:

What do magicked prisms do

@dense pier turning this setting might alleviate it a little but server tick may often just be disagreeing with you on click accuracy and position of the character you're targeting
What do magicked prisms do
@tulip plover just a firework more or less
twilit arch
they're basically fire works

I have that enabled
I can't live without that

@twilit arch why wouldn’t he probably never see one again?
dense pier
I am aware of how interpolation works
dense pier
but wtf tho
little swift
its one of those things you just gotta get used to a little 
lean yarrow
Do I have to buy lumber, or can I go cut trees somewhere? I havent seen any trees I can cut with my saw yet
little swift
triple triad is a card game @tulip plover completely for fun
you have to use a botanist to cut trees @lean yarrow not a carpenter. carpenters fashion lumber from logs cut by botanists
lean yarrow
ah I thought botanist was just shrubs. got it. thanks!
tepid jackal
Hello! I'm trying to return to the game after not playing it for a long time. The square enix software token app logged me out automatically cuz I haven't used it in some time but I can't get into my account to disable and re-enable it without a one time password. How should I go about fixing that?
vagrant copper
If you don't have the recovery password, you need to contact customer support to get the OTP removed
tepid jackal
Yeah I can't recall the password to the email I used
Anything in particular I need to have on hand to prove that the account's mine?
tulip plover
Is the leader minion random?
vagrant copper
I believe so. Though you can cycle through them by spamming the minion
tulip plover
Oh ok
Thought i was stuck with mini raughban
(Fuck i murdered his name)
He keeps popping up
It says behavior:obedient
Oh wait it depends on your grand company
vagrant copper
Hmm. Guess I was wrong about that. Coulda sworn I had a Kan-e at some point but maybe that was a different character
tulip plover
Yea
Fuck i wanted a mini pirate lady whos name i will not try to type before i die of old age trying to spell it
little swift
Merlwyb?
vagrant copper
Still no clue how to pronounce that
stray dawn
can a newbie like me get these breaking brinks mount?
vagrant copper
I'd imagine so. These events are usually geared towards around level 30 or so.
little swift
the fates are lv7 minimum
if you can access uldah and central thanalan
you can probably do it
dense pier
What's the event rewards again
little swift
the minion and 2 head glamour pieces
lime geode
Where are the details of the event?
vagrant copper
vagrant copper
There's the minion 
lime geode
Thanks. For some reason I read mount, I'll pass on the minions. I barely notice the little slime guy I have.
stray dawn
should i do other classes along side my Conjurrer? or only focus on COnjurrer to lv 80?
stray dawn
oh, they're useless?
terse grail
a lot of things in this game are "do it if you want to"
nova umbra
do I always want to summon my robot as a machinist at full bar?
stray dawn
i'll feel overwhelmed if I do too many things, so I guess i'll stick with conjur
terse grail
dont forget to do your job quests and upgrade to white mage when you hit 30
thats kind of not optional lol
nova umbra
crafting and gathering is VERY time consuming
terse grail
but fun!
nova umbra
well, not as time consuming if you have millions of gil to just buy all the materials to craft 😛
brittle coral
You still consumed the time gathering that gil together 😛
stray dawn
what do I do with the old gear? sell? or does ff14 have dismantle?
terse grail
well you need crafters leveled to dismantle. just vendor old gear
stray dawn
oof, so selling it is
lime geode
or keep some for retainers?
stray dawn
retainers?
zinc orbitBOT
lime geode
Like an automated helper. They can do field missions where they get loot/gil.
stray dawn
oh thats cool, guess i'll get them at lv 30?
orchid bone
please help. i cant move in my game cause i cant escape out the chat menu activity log thing in the bottom left of my screen (i just started)
terse grail
you get them after the level 17 MSQ. they also act as extra storage, as well as your way of selling stuff on the market
stray dawn
oh boi, im lv 19, i might have miss it
vagrant copper
A level 19 character is a lot different than being at level 17 MSQ
terse grail
depends on your MSQ, not your level. remember that 99% of things in this game are unlocked by doing the main story
brittle coral
Your MSQ may be a lower level. Check your Journal.
stray dawn
its lv15, I see now
orchid bone
How do I exit out of this chat. Please 😭
terse grail
press escape?
vagrant copper
Esc?
terse grail
on your keyboard
terse grail
you might have your settings on controller mode and you have quick chat on
vagrant copper
Are you trying to hide chat completely?
orchid bone
Ooo let me see that might work I tried my controller earlier
vagrant copper
The option is "enable direct chat" somewhere
terse grail
cuz quick chat basically makes it so whenever you press a button on your keyboard, it starts typing. super convenient for controller players, but obviously not good for kbm players lol
normal breach
how do i use/open a map? i have one on in my invnetory but dont understand what i gotta do with it
vagrant copper
You need to do a to enable the decipher action
orchid bone
Am I just dumb and missed it 😩
brittle coral
Character Config, Control Settings, Chat Mode Settings, Enable Direct Chat
normal breach
what do i gotta do @vagrant copper
vagrant copper
I think the quest is in Eastern La Noscea...? Go poke around there
terse grail
pretty sure its in wineport
twilit arch
yes
terse grail
you also need dig to be able to use the map, so make sure to do both quests
twilit arch
dig is given from that quest
normal breach
ok ty
slate arrow
I don't think the quest is active yet....?
little swift
its active
remote lintel
it started today
little swift
central thanalan
slate arrow
gotcha
little swift
is one possible location
remote lintel
and upper/lower la noscea and somewhere in gridania?
remote lintel
those only say the 2nd fates
twilit arch
central than, upper/lower la noscea, central/north shroud
vagrant copper
AFAIK, the FATEs spawn on top of each other so there's really 6 possible locations...?
Either way, those are the locations.
remote lintel
oh ok
little swift
brick by brick is like a pre-fate fate
remote lintel
yeah I know
little swift
which one you get is based on the broken golem on the ground
could be a stone one or a gold one
normal breach
how do i find the treasure? is there supposed to be something that shows it on the map?
slate arrow
/AC dig
normal breach
like im at the rough spot where it should be
vagrant copper
Just use dig in that area until you find it
normal breach
do i gotta be on the exact spot?
vagrant copper
ehhhh, not really
twilit arch
might need to move a bit northeast ish
little swift
close enough as you can
twilit arch
but should be close enough for dig to work
normal breach
oh ok it worked
ty
i just did dig and it showed treasure on map
where do i get more treasure maps?
remote lintel
buy or gather
knotty scroll
is there a place where random people prog for TEA?
grizzled gorge
is it worth it to pay and skip the quests or will I miss stuff?
brittle coral
You'll have no context to understand the MSQ.
vagrant copper
If you skip the MSQ, you'll obviously skip the MSQ. A lot of people like the story.
little swift
if skipping msq lets you enjoy the game more, i can't say no
but the story is a reason many people like this game
twilit arch
if you skip, you're also going to forfeit getting the fantasia you get for free from the lvl 50 msq "the ultimate weapon"
remote lintel
if you like story then don't skip it
normal breach
what does "soul of the crafter" item do? its a miscellaenous
grizzled gorge
what is a fantasia?
little swift
soul of the crafter gives that particular crafter some stats
brittle coral
Lets you completely change your character's appearance, including race
twilit arch
fantasias lets you re-edit your character
little swift
and lets you use crafter's delineations for careful observation
grizzled gorge
oh that's cool
twilit arch
so if you want to change races or genders, thats how you'd do it
normal breach
how do i use soul of the crafter
little swift
just equip it in the soulstone section of your equipment
to the crafter of your choice
vagrant copper
Soul of the Crafter is traded into a dude near the Foundation airship landing. You need to unlock him via a in Mor Dhona
little swift
alderan is in ishgard
near the astro aetheryte iirc
trade it for things like "soul of the carpenter"
normal breach
oh
so if my only crafting class that i work on is cooking
and i already have the culinary one
i dont need these others?
vagrant copper
Yep
dry ocean
how do you increase density level in anima?
indigo orbit
By running heavensward dungeons/raids as the appropriate job
IIRC you don't need to be using the weapon but you need to have it in your inventory
twilit arch
you need to have the weapon equipped when the final boss is killed
which if you're doing the normal suggestion of Eyes of the Creator (Savage) (A9S) farm, then you're going to need to have it equipped
that said if you can't find a group or don't want to do a9s farm, other farm option is running lvl 50 dungeons
brayflox hard mode is pretty common
empty parrot
Would anyone know how you grow the rainbow variant of a flower? I looked it up and only found gamerescape which says to use red pomace, blue pomace, and mountain pomace. Is that just applying the pomace at the same time?
twilit arch
you can only fertilize it once a hour
But yes, give it blue/red/yellow pomace atleast once and you have a chance of getting the rainbow variation
empty parrot
Alright thank you! Guess I'll plant a lot of it
twilit arch
ya, there's a possibility of getting black and white as well
so probably going to need to do more than a few
frail fulcrum
Does it take too long to process crysta by PayPal?
remote lintel
like half an hour prob
twilit arch
iirc if you do a9s is like 21 runs or so
dry ocean
can u solo i?
twilit arch
a9s? no
you'd want to be in a group anyway for it to kill it as fast as possible
if you're going to do it solo, you should be doing on the lvl 50 dungeons you can do quickly
like i said, brayflox hard mode is pretty common
dry ocean
how many runs?
dry ocean
hauke manor is faster i think
zinc orbitBOT
twilit arch
doesn't really matter which lv50 dungeon you choose for solo, so long as you can solo it quickly
and idk how many runs of the lv50 dungeon are required, as i dont think most people really bothered to keep track of it
its going to be slow in general than a9s though
warped nest
I am told that A8S is just as good as A9S
frail fulcrum
yeah my paypal went through
gritty oracle
Just /shout in any major city
Or just hang around one lmao. People tend to like recruiting in shoutchat and sometimes you get unsolicited offers from nowhere
Also Samurai is all about big attacks
If I want to do Titania ex, should I put up a learning party in pf? Or should I just queue directly through DF after looking the fight up?
twin sable
Okie
twilit arch
pf
vagrant copper
It's pretty unlikely for an EX to pop in DF
twilit arch
you're not going to find a group thru df
gritty oracle
Ah, thanks!
empty sleet
hi guys
for the damage numbers
! = direct hit, !! = critical hit is it?
is there a !!! for critical+direct hit?
jade quartz
Slightly larger number = direct hit
Single ! = crit
!! = Direct + crit

what does Domakin or Doma Kingdom means
vagrant copper
Just sign up with the duty finder and it'll find people for you
gloomy mortar
Talk to Edda at Satasha
vagrant copper
@dry ocean Domakin are people of the Doma Kingdom
leaden ginkgo
just queued, it's taking longer than expected, probably not prime time
vagrant copper
Also depends on which class you are. DPS classes face longer queue times
twilit arch
its 1:30 CST

I'm tank

@vagrant copper I know. I mean japanese in our data center spam it after finishing quest
(Domakin)(Doma Kingdom)
jade quartz
“Its name a portmanteau of his nation and the local word for gold”
vagrant copper
I'd assume that it means "good game" or an equivalent. Maybe "Gold Gold" => "GG"
jade quartz
Domakin are not “people of the Doma Kingdom” btw
AFAIK Japanese players would usually just say GG
Adapted from English
Or お疲れ様
Otsukaresama—thanks for your hard work
Are they putting it in auto-translation arrows crow?
I assume it’s some pun or double meaning for jp players
wanton herald
do side jobs have any varying usefulness/importance or can you pick up any based on just interest?
forest wharf
Doma Kingdom is written in Japanese as ドマ城, or Domajou. The default meaning is Doma Castle. But sometimes people are playful and use it to mean "Don't mind" (Donmai)
forest wharf
Did someone die in the instance you were in?
forest wharf
If so, they will sometimes playfully use domajou to mean "I don't mind, don't worry about it"
forest wharf
Ok, I get it. Then yes, they use ドマ城 in Auto Translate
dry ocean
Doma kin
old flame
ok..so question. Expert Delivery with GC's let me turn in dungeon drops (like atherial gears) to get seals...so I can use the Duty finder on solo mode to do this then right?
forest wharf
because ど -> Tab -> ドマ城
forest wharf
Faster than writting どんまい
white ether
Is there a way to change your name?
vagrant copper
it's like $10 USD or so on mogstation to change your name
twilit arch
@old flame yep
old flame
is there a good dungeon for doing this?
white ether
Also I’m level 15 where is the starter Dungeon at
vagrant copper
Follow the MSQ 
and it'll take you there
twilit arch
the aery is pretty fast, and the gear converts for a decent amount of seals
you could also do the vault instead
white ether
Even for the marauder?
twilit arch
wouldn't recommend anything past gubal library though, they're going to be slower
old flame
Aery and Vault. Got it. Thanks @twilit arch
zinc orbitBOT
vagrant copper
Almost all dungeons are enabled through the MSQ. So, yes, even for marauders
remote lintel
does ast need sps
soft hazel
So I’m thinking of starting a tank job... can anyone tell me which tank job is best in terms of sustainability and which is the most fun to play... as well as survivability and buffs and debuffs?
dry ocean
where can I get macro's for drg Dragon sight?
jade quartz
/micon “dragon sight”```do i need player name?
brittle coral
@soft hazel For pure survivability, I think Paladin is the best.
dry ocean
invalid action
twilit arch
so 2, 3 etc
dry ocean
@quartz burrow
magic light
can dragon sight use <mo> ?
twilit arch
yes
soft hazel
Thank you @brittle coral
jade quartz
@dry ocean ensure you have the quote marks
gloomy ice
@wanton herald Late response but, yeah, a single character can pick up any and every class/job. If you have an interest in the class, feel free to grab it. There is little reason to roll multiple characters, by design more or less.
wanton herald
alright thanks :)
frozen karma
So I'm at the start of the stormblood campaign but my paladin is already at 74, would it be better to do it with my lvl60 dark knight to level that class too?
lime geode
Are all the tanks easy to play? Figured I'd buy some ironworks gear for a tank since I keep capping out.
alpine shadow
yes
frozen karma
tank is fun because fi you de you can just blame the healer lol
alpine shadow
if you die, then you arent doing enough mitigations
but those are easily done by hitting one button
jade quartz
If you die due to a mistake take responsibility 
lime geode
Oh, doesn't matter, armor is the same for all of em 🙂
remote lintel
people can see if you're using mitigation or not
