rolls need repair?
Faded copies do
the level of crafting in this game is so meticulous
b est way to get gear at lvl 9?
Story
if you're stuck at the part where it asks you to be in level 5 gear, there should be a vendor near the quest giver
ty XD
What's reverse courier leves
The leve starts in a leveling zone and takes you to one of the city-states
You deliver from the leve destination to the nearest main city.
why this keep happening https://i.imgur.com/jLIHXZj.png
What’s the pop-up that appears when you switch to CUL?
no popup k it seems gone now
I don't get it. Sorry
Instead of "go deliver this for me" it's more "go pick this up for me"
Where can I find those
99% of fish seems worthless should i even bother checking their mb price or just instant sell
need to make room
I check once if they’re used in a leve
If so then I sell with my retainer
If not then vendor
Yes. Do not harass the lalas.
Nah even though some might not like it
aw
But if they ask you to stop, stop lol
but theyre so cute
all of my encounters with lalafell players are positive so far
so

you'll enjoy playing on JP servers then
really wanted to look into that ozma mount...told to go to eureka...get there and be like whaaaaaaaat is going on what do I do?!
Need to finish allll the zones, which means level up to 60 and do everything krile asks of you
oh boi
I am going to need a guide to read up on it all...I selected an element and I don't what it did
The magicite wheel puts your alignment to a element. Mobs have elemental alignment as well...if your element is effective against it you do more damage or take leas damage depending how you spin the wheel
Most people put all 5 magicite into 1 so they get a 5 attack bonus for 200% damage
I see I mean I am lvl 80 and this sort of content is outdated to me but I would like to experience it
you're synced to level 70 in eureka, well your skills are
Does anyone remember what the item requirements are for augmented artifact armor?
hmm... i'm not even sure if i'm at the right npc
which AF set is it
What
I meant the uh level of the set
Mor Dhona for level 50 set, Idyllshire for level 60 set, Eureka Anemos for level 70 set, and Memoria Misera Extreme for level 80 set.
!faq afgeardye
A Realm Reborn i50/i55 set: Done in Mor Dhona by talking to Kakalan at x22, y6 after completing the quest 'Simply to Dye For' located at x22, y9. Augmenting a set of gear requires a total of 7 Augmentations matching the name of the set. Augmentations can be crafted or bought on the marketboard.
Heavensward i200 set: Done in Idyllshire by talking to Seika at x7, y7. The materials needed to augment the gear are buyable with Centurio Seals in Ishgard at the Forgotten Knight by talking to Ardolain in the 'Exchange Centurio Seals (Advanced)' option.
Stormblood i290 set: Done in Eureka Anemos by exchanging Protean and Anemos Crystals with Gerolt to upgrade the set. Eureka is unlocked in Rhalgr's Reach with the quest 'And We Shall Call It Eureka' and is accessed in Kugane by talking to Rodney at x9, y14.
Shadowbringers i430 set: Obtained from Idealized coffers in the trial Memoria Misera (Extreme). They can also be bought with High Legatus Idols obtained from the trial in Mor Dhona by talking to C'intana.
oh, yeah, 50
oh
OH
OH
Would it help if i removed the artifact armor from my glamour plates first?
Need to craft Augmentation items and then exchange them plus the gear at a vendor in Mor Dhona.
Yes 😛
Can anyone tell me how to change ui text to Japanese in ffxiv?
I only found how to do so for voice
On ps4 btw
there's a dropdown in the launcher
There's this on PC. No clue about PS4

do miner and botanist gather different stuff in diadem or it doesnt matter?
Different stuff
if i pick up the tales for ARR there's no discount for the HW/SB ones yes? initially was interested in skipping ARR and the rest potentially later on
welp rip me, thanks for confirmation
does only the base game give a fantasia?
Yes
Only the Ultimate weapon quest gives it
guess i'll be spending €7
Only 1 free fantasia
does this game have PvP?
Pretty much is
Its there for some glamour, mounts and stuff
No real advancements or anything
You get some xp for doing it as a thing on the side
okay thanks ill look at something else
can i buy phantasia via mog station when i have the game on steam?
Yes
also do i need to restart the game?
No
Yes, mogstation is for all kinds of service accounts
And, nah, it’ll come in the mog mail after a few minutes.
any must have macros for a returning player?
Depends on what role you are
cool. thanks. i'll be doing galka monk
Ah then not really
Its the last ARR story dungeon
dragons one?
With ||Midgarsommer soul|| as last boss
80
Hello! Is there a way to make the "error sound" stop when you click a skill that isn't ready yet? for someone who bashes their skills nonstop it's torture
oh okay
just tried to play with my WHM on a different PC and all my WHM skills are missing from Action and traits
That stuffed is saved locally
Role skill only showing to lvl 48
do you have your WHM stone equipped
character screen show con lvl 70
not I couldn't even find them in action and traits to drag down
ok that's it. wow, is there a way to bring the hotbar setup and stuff from one PC to another?
There's a save button on the character select screen
Next to your character's name
Save your hud layout there then load it on your 2nd PC
Or do it ye old fashioned way and copy/paste your character files from one pc to the other
I did that on the character screen and upload from home PC then download from office PC
do you have to do it with every character?
yeah
ah missed that part thanks

Thank you so much!
Are the riding maps woth getting from the current event? (new player here)
Also wondering if there's any other valuable item I should get from the moogle
The riding maps will basically become worthless when 5.3 adds flying to the base game zones, as they don’t boost flying speed
As for things to get, the Ixion Mount is pretty annoying if you don’t keep up with a discord or linkshells that tracks when he spawns
Im lvl 15 crafting and still can't buy emperor's stuff... what am I missing?
how long does the queue take for the stormblood ivalice raids? been at it all day and haven't had it popped for the first one (playing as tank btw)
did you do the quest "Absolutely Glamourous"? @gentle knoll
why mogry kiosk have no russian prices
Ive done all the glam quests
why can't I put my mch relic into the glam dresser? does it have to be a replica?
are you absolutely certain because if you did, then you should be able to buy from tataroga
yes, only replicas can go into the dresser
sad
pls respond
Because they want Gil, not Ruble
Jokes aside, Square Enix usually sells everything in USD
😔
Otherwise they would have to adjust prices for all regions, kinda like what Sony did to their online store
gamepad question~ is there a setting that makes you automatically move when holding LT and wanting to cast? so lets say im casting glare > move out of aoe (while holding LT) and instead of doing my next cast it will cause me to start moving. The only way ive noticed that prevents is me fully stopping in a spot and casting but while not holding it previously. so stop then hold the button to cast. AND the only thing ive done when it comes to settings is just click gamepad option to enable it/crossbar to be on my screen lol is there things i have to change maybe?
wdym with clipping
On my au ra, the cheek protrusions were coming through some helmets
@little walrus I think there's a command to do the alternate idle pose
Changing pose is /cpose
Weapons have specific poses too
worst case scenario it's a pose only for her
@leaden ginkgo not that I know of? There’s auto-move but it doesn’t do what you would want it to do
it's a generic npc pose
primarily used for retainers
afaik there's no player available version outside of cutscenes
< aw ty , im suspecting its keybinds maybe? i cleared all of them, had keyboard ones @obsidian patio ^^ maybe itll help
oh and also theres auto move setting for gamepad ? maybe i can turn that off but tbh i dont see it only the one that says
maybe this?
Hi!
a friend just purchased the game via Steam since it was on sale. She also was using the free trial but that was downloaded via Chrome/SqEx site. Does she have to redownload the client from steam? Can she bind the free trial character to the steam game or does she have to start over?
she will be able to use the steam code on her trial account, so won't have to start over
And i do believe that yeah she will have to redownload from steam
Thank you!
what can I do to level my ast from 73 to 80 really fast w/o heavens on high and rouletts (i do them daily)?
ok will consider that as an option

Wheres the 4th adventurer in reventants toll for volunteer dragonslayer?
how much grinding would i need to do in order to get 1 pair of elemental gear? specificly the Gloves of Aiming?
Depends on how far you’ve gotten in Eureka
If you haven’t touched it at all then I’d say a week or two of making a Pagos Weapon to unlock the ability to make the elemental gear
are character models reduced in detail during cutscenes?
i have unlocked Pyros but haven't really started to dig into it
The hardest part of Eureka is leveling up. The materials to get the gear aren't so difficult to get once you're there.
There’s also unlocking/learning 50 types of logos
is ironworks gear is the endgame gear?
@leaden ginkgo pretty sure not.
For 50
Cutscenes use the same graphics as everything else AFAIK. They just look worse as they shove the camera right up in there texture resolutions be damned.
@obsidian patio ah you're right, their faces just look different under different lightning environments
but the details remains the same, kinda odd but that's how the game's shaders work
I guess that's why they add different scenarios/environment on the character creator screen
@chilly fog it's the level 50 gear, not considered end-game by any means. Level 50 has Ironworks/augmented Ironworks, 60 has Shire/augmented shire, 70 is Scaevan/augmented scaevan and 80 is currently Crystarium/augmented crystarium for tomestone purchase.
does ninja not have an interrupt?
anything "end-game" most likely won't be encountered until...well, level 80/endgame
No
ohh ok ty
Only tanks and physical range has interupt
ty
ah ok. thanks
Those gear do look really good except for those ugly paladin ones
how can i get to the mist
Its limsas housing district. If you've done Where the heart is (mist) you can use the aetheryte to get there
ok
Alternatively walk there from lower la noscea
What level 80 crafting gear should I get ? o-o
White scrip gear, the Professional's set, is ok for now. If you can get a hold of HQ Facet gear, however, and fully meld it, it will be better than the scrip gear. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut we're expecting a new crafted set that will replace Facet with the next patch. Fully melding any crafted set can be quite expensive as well.
How do you get white scrips? just from deliveries?
How long do you guys think it will take me to lvl up from 60-70 in palace of the dead ?
@grim adder Deliveries are the easiest way, yes. If you're out of allowances though you'll have to make collectables for the House of Splendors.
@drifting atlas Too long. PotD experience drops to almost nothing at 60+. You'll want to move on to Heaven on High.
In palace of the dead? Forever as potd gives terrible xp post 60
What is heaven on high ?
PotD 2
I saw Meoni do it but idk
It's in the Ruby Sea
The 61-70 version of potd
Do I access it using same NPC ?
No
It's in Ruby Sea, nearest aetheryte being Onokoro.
Its in.the ruby sea
Does one have to do the singing clusters roulette quests as the job currently undertaking the anima wep stage?
no
the repeatable singing clusters quests can be done on any job
that can complete the objective
they're just a way to help you earn singing clusters

how do you reset the chocobo skill tree?
Use a reagan pepper
is a hug the same as embrace? https://i.imgur.com/iwIxWdD.png
Can buy from the grand company if your rank is high enough
No, they're different
Embrace is from weddings
oh
how do u get it do u need to buy the thing from mogstore or is it enough to attend a wedding?
Buy the wedding
hey guys so last time i tried to play ffxiv i was super conused navigating and stuff because the map was super confusing, are there any guides to learn how to navigate the map better?
i navigated just fine through trail and error (lots of error
)
reach lv 50 within 4 days
I think so
click on that so it doesnt spin with you
ohh no not that it was the big one then :o
oh, then what do you mean by when it's vertical?
like on the actual world if theres stairs going up or down i found it super hard to know which way to go ;w;
i click on the mission and the map of where the mission is pops up and I go towards it
I still get confused because theres like multiple maps D:
yea, there is
I think im gonna give the game another shot and hope I can do better this time xD
which is why the teleport cystals are very useful
i teleport to a nearby crystal of where my mission is
so you dont have to know the map too deeply
but you can always ask for help on here, folks are great with answering questions 
complete if you want all the expansions, i think
standard prob locks you at lv 50 but expansion goes all the way to lv 80 is my guess, lets see of someone else can correct me xD
is it possible to upgrade mid like game?
you can upgrade whenever, but the client will not start downloading the extra patch information
until you log off
starter edition is the one that locks you to lv50
complete edition contains the starter and all current expansions
Shadowbringers contains just the expansions
so you can pretty much reach lv 50 very quickly, so expansion would be the way to go imo
Mogstation i believe
I'm looking to unlock the Amalj'aa beast tribe missions. Do I have to finish the main story missions up to level 45 to have access?
yea,around there is when I unlocked mine
fat cat mount is money
fat cat minion is rng from fisher retainer waterside venture
Hello! Somewhat silly question but, is there any guide or optimum way to fish for Artisanal fishes for The Height of Angling achievement in Diadem? Ideally a way to do it without certain weather patterns?
if your Q is silly, mine would be more silly 
If the artisanal fish are like the MIN/BTN nodes then they most likely do need the specific weathers
I haven’t done fishing in the new diadem yet so I can’t confirm for myself.
I mean the obvious answer is "Just fish a lot" but I figured I'd ask haha.
the quests are pissing me off im just going back and forth
is ishgard restoration still a thing?
Yes
It is for us weirdos who like achievements 😄
Always will be
Nice
how soon can you get a mount?
!faq mount
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
ty
also ive seen some vids about black mages but cant find in the game, is it renamed as somethin else?
They start as Thaumaturge and then promote into Black Mage
ty had a suspicion it was something to do with them
Yea there's a few promotion classes, Lancer into Dragoon, Conjurer into White Mage, etc.
why does he not have the crossover quest or the items
how do you obtain rosewood plank? can't find any info on it online
i believe it was a 1.0 item, so there's no way of obtaining it anymore @leaden ginkgo
oh ok
@last cape did you do previous run of the cross over event?
because if you did previous year's then you can't do the quests again. the vendor for event items is Toughie, she's near the THM guild
it was rosewood lumber but the person who asked me about it might have meant lumber
sorry i mean it was rosewood plank
if they meant lumber it's like a level 30 btn gather from the bramble place @ central
ok
45

Sometimes they’re super rarely brought back as regular items
Stiperstone used to be a 1.0 item IIRC
i just hit level 50 drk, do i keep the unaugmented ring of fending on or do i follow the recommended gear screen and replace it with the augmented ring of slaying?
Fending and striking accessories pre-stormblood are essentially the same except the fending ones sometimes have tenacity
So striking is fine in this case
ah ok
yeah i'm giving up det and ten for crit and dh
which definitely seems better
yeah p much, crit is always good
a lot of + missions at lv 50, should I do them now or focus on msq?
I’d just make sure to grab “Legacy of Allag” from the Outlandish Man who is totally not Nero in Mor Dhona
Since the Crystal tower raid series will eventually be required for story progress in 5.3
and arr alliance raid roulette is quick and easy (usually)
and it's basically mandatory knowledge to get the most out of Shadowbringers msq
ARR alliance raid has unique series of glamour too
I personally recommend the mage and healer gears from the first ARR alliance raid
amon's hat. amon's hat.
speaking of crystal tower should i unsync for it or just queue
!iglam Amon’s Hat
POGGERS
god what even is on top of the hat
You need a minimum of 12 people for the first part of CT
damn
so you might as well just queue for that one
@shrewd owl just queue is fine
I think it has a shared model though
Syrcus can be done with 3, which is the minimum number of people
And I think WoD technically can be done with 3? Maybe 6 to be safe for the atomos
queue timer's gonna be sub-15mins anyway more than likely
Yeah, unless you’re a tank
so it's generally just worth queueing
oh lord i turned on legacy controls and i hate flying now
i keep tilting down
with left mouse
If your pc can handle it at least lmao
oh my new pc arrives in a week or two
and im STILL not turning party effects on outside of party
cause alliance raids would be cancer
hell they already are because the CT series is soul-crushingly boring
yeah i keep it off cause like, 3 smns after 70 becomes unreadable and 2 asts at 80 becomes unreadable
due to nigh 100% spiritbomb/starcloud uptime
high level ninjas too
you can't see shit inside a Hakke Mujinsatsu
or a Gokka Mekyaku
is there a white mage guide somewhere
White doesn’t have a guide as they’re very simplistic, so most people refer to the general healer guide for them
!faq healerguide
Ah yes. Bullshitting your way through everything
I must've wrote that guide in my sleep
Also don't fall into the trap of casting Cure 1 attempting to proc Freecure. It isn't worth it.
proper healer mains that are leveling other jobs will dislike you for it
cure 1 is literally only used for dungeons before haukke manor, and for when you have literally no resources or ogcds or mp left and you desperately need someone healed
but at the point that you're cure 1 spamming, you'd have to judge whether resetting a run is more valuable
I’m not completely sure either, but “Closing” it basically marks it as done and makes it so you can’t reply to it anymore
i stopped using cure 1
like
after i hit cure 2
trust me, ik how it feels seeing people cast lesser versions of their spells
after playing classic wow
A you are probably replying to the wrong channel or the message you replied to are a few hours up
B cure is not exactly lesser version of cure II
on E8S LR2, as healer, if I move while I'm in the second tower (after push back) will I break the chains?
Why do healers go into melee range?
Sometimes it's the best place to be for heals to reach everyone
Chimera 1shot her
That's a failure of mechanics
^
It has nothing to do with going into melee range
We retried it 8 times
Aside from her not needing to be there for a chimera mechanic
Ye her friend told her
Stand far away dont join the fight
So only 2dps and tank attacking
That's not helpful
that...sounds like awful advice
@sturdy mason if you move back there's a very high chance you'll break the chain
there is no reason for stand far away
Healers should dps when possible
And revive if needed
Plus they need to go close when its purple eyes
ranged should be close ish to the boss, but not necessarily melee range
Healers can stand wherever they want to and participate as much as everyone else
You're just telling her to not play essentially
you should move in close to the boss when the eyes glow purple, move away from melee range when they glow blue
Its just a matter of paying attention to the cast and eyes
We new players
No reaction time yet
You're just telling her to not play essentially
@raven sage at the end she said helpful tho
And agree with it
That's not really the point
I'm glad it worked out for her but you shouldn't default to that advice
Oh
In ishguard I found a beach set of i255 lvl item
Should I use that set for lvl60
Or continue using my ironworks i130 ?
If you have access to Idyllshire get shire
If you just reached Ishgard, then your i130 is fine for the time being
What is that ?
The lv60 equilivant to ironworks

Brought with poetics in Idyllshire
Those i255 gears sold by NPC are normal quality crafted gears, NQ crafted gears have neutered stats
NQ gear is essentially like -40 ilvls worth of stats
If your gear is majorly lacking its "fine" to tide you over until you get proper gear
Where is idyllshrine exactly ?
Can I go there before story ?
I am currently at lvl56 so I'll get there soon
Map Question
On level caps, as in 50/60/70/80, how many maps are there, and what differences are there?
Is this A reference to IX?
Usually 2 maps
Like treasure maps?
Treasure maps, yeah
One for solo and one for 8mans
I think even the music is the same as when they appear
And reward differences?
The 8man maps, primarily for 60+ can lead to a special dungeon with unique materials, minions and music rolls
Solo maps are just watered down 8mans in short
Without the special dungeon or the dungeon materials
Pretty much
Only need a tank and heal minimum
As the dungeon syncs
Add morw people for dps to clear faster
8man maps usually sell well as well if you dont have friends to run with
For reliable cash
Vs the rng chance of running it
can someone give me a infomation if the new patch is going to have new main scenario quest?
it will
oh ok
major patches always contain more MSQ
when i got to echoes of star and stopped
you finished 5.2
i tought needed something to unlock
5.3 hasn't arrived yet
the rest of it
they said is gonna have aether current on arr maps is that true?
Flight will be enabled if you completed 2.0 but you will not need to find currents
Where do I go if I need help to do a raid?
well i got all aether currents but i m saying about the uldah limsa and gridania maps
on which duty friend?
@leaden ginkgo city zones won’t have flight
oh ok i didn know
city zones will likely never allow mounting
you all some trick to get that sightseeing log on kugane?
you mean the lamp post?
i got the self destruct
but dont need to be at top of the building?
strafe jump
I just cleared my first savage trial (edens verse fulmination) and I got two items from it? I thought you only got 1 per week
I got earrings and belt
which duty gives me the item for augmented crystarium?
i know shiva edenverse gives me the item to trade for crystarium weapon
i know its savage but have an specific savage or any savage gives the item?
I think E6S+ have em?
the glaze is from Eden's Verse: Furor (Savage), and the twine/ester are from Eden's Verse: Iconoclasm (Savage)
glaze being for accessories, twine for the armour, and ester for the weapons
geezus chirst the edenverse i most died was iconoclasm
the beam that hell versed thing releases always hit me
should also note that with 5.3 we'll be able to purchase the upgrade items with tokens from the 24man alliance raid
better
though the ester will most likely not be available for exchange right at the start
which one is that alliance?
Nier
i gonna unlock today
The Copied Factory is the name of the first tier
i just finished alphaverse
The whole raid series is called Yorha Apocalypse
i know nier
was the first psn platinum i got
What was the rewards of Wondrous Tail again
Tomestones, pets, materia, MGP, Gil and Map aaand... Certificates, yes?
Yeah
Oky

Do you only get general-purpose black dye from retainer ventures?
Hello there! So I recently started playing this game and I am currently level 19. I got some Glamour Prisms, and I got some nice piece of gear that I think would look on my character. But since I'm still leveling and I'll be changing gear quite often, should I save them up or are they easy to obtain later on? Thanks for the attention!
Not hard to obtain
@vocal shell yes, same for the other general purpose dyes
If you want to re-use gears for glamour
Is there a minimum requirement to start getting them?
We recommend making plates from your glamour dresser
You buy/craft them
Or trade them with Grand Company currency (NPC faction)
Thanks! I'll search about that, not really sure what glamour plates are
From what I can tell no. But higher ilvl/gathering seems to improve the rate slightly
Alright, thanks
@torpid steeple glamour plate are only usable inside cities, but it can be reused over and over again to apply a whole set of glamours to your jobs
This is good for players who are changing gears a lot as they level
And players who want to use different glamour for jobs that shares gears
Makes sense, but does it use glamour prisms every time I wanna re apply the glamour plate? Or are glamour plates a whole different thing all together?
One prism is used for each piece placed into the dresser but once it's inside, it can be reused endlessly at no cost.
Glamour prism are used two way
A standard glamour. You make a function piece look like a fashion piece. Neither piece are destroyed. Cost 1 prism everytime you do it
B glamour dresser (and extend to glamour plate). You put fashion gears into a Glamour dresser. And you can then make plates from these stored fashion gear. Cost 1 prism to store the gear.
Btw, function/fashion are just terms I used to describe the gear in the context of glamour
Most gear can be both
so i havent really played this in awhile but was thinking of getting in on ps4. as of now all i own is ARR. if i buy Shadowbringer do Iget the other dlc as well?
Yes. Shadowbringers includes Heavensward and Stormblood.
awesome. do they still do the preferred servers? figure if i'm gonna start off again might as well get somewhere that has the level boost lol
Yeah preferred servers are still around. Each of the NA datacenters has at least one iirc.
ok cool. ill have to look up which ones then. gotta figure out which package to buy on ps store now lol
best way to get my 1st e5s clear? these practice pugs r killin me.
If you can't find yourself a static or friends to go with, pugging is your only option
...n no luck finding a static yet which im sure is helpful but ya....frustrating
anyone know if i have the non-steam version of FFXIV: ARR/HW/SB, can i get the Steam version of ShB? Asking cuz it's on sale
Steam and Non-steam are incompatible.
steam does give you a code, but it wouldn't work
non-steam pc and steam fill in the same license slot, so you are either non-steam or you're steam
what time does duty reset? pst
!daily
@sweet bison settle for a 0-1 chest clear if you're not already, allow people who have already cleared for the week to join and help dilute the people who havent
wow thats...a good idea. lol tyvm
Hey there
OK so friend of mine sent me pic asking what's gear/glam is it OK to post pic here?
Yes, or ask in #glamour-discussion who have glamour nerds
Here or #glamour-discussion are fine
lol
I'll go for both I guess tho pic is okish quality cuz it can taken from phone
Here is it
Spring dress
Too blurry to tell gloves or shoes
Gloves look like the plain cloth ones from pre-50
Thanks
I feel like they really need to add a limit break tutorial in hall of the novice
every single time I find a group of 3 sprouts, I have to explain it, and I don't remember when they teach you about it
do they ever teach you with one of those pop up hint things?
@gloomy ice @twilit arch ty both for confirming!
Does the horn from demonic attire in the mogstation dyeable
like the horns themselves
anyone familiar with blue mage? If so my question is was I suppose to get a 60 staff from completing the 1-25 carnical missions? I remember seeing a staff for completing the 25th one. But I don't see it in my armory
Yes food is pretty important
You're talking about getting almost as much secondary stats as another accessory
Basically a free piece of gear
Can you resell glamour items or once you use it for glamour its bound.
@cloud lake The level 60 cane is purchased with Allied Seals. Iirc completing the first set of Carnivale missions gives a glam cane and not a 50 or 60.
@noble ember idk individually but if its more efficient putting an item into a glamour dresser and using it for a plate
so you can reuse the glamour as much as you want for free without using a prism
the downside is you have to be infront of the dresser to do it
The second a glam prism touches a piece of gear or if you use it in your glam chest, it binds to you.
Meaning it can't be resold.
GC quartermasters, mostly
i cant find the prism
I think you can also trade bicolor gemstones for them?
make sure you're on the Materiel tab
how can the dps check for e5s be so high
we had 2 people die and they were dead for like 5 seconds and we still failed
and everyone is at 480
boss was at 3%
we had 2 people die
deaths cause a lot more DPS loss than just uptime
the Weakness debuff pretty significantly gimps your damage output for a whole minute after getting rezzed
i don't remember the exact number but it's something like 20%?
didn't know the fights are that fuckin rough on stats and stuff
The DPS check for E5S isn't high at all
can i buy glamour prisms from market board?
You're party is just doing low damage overall, even with the deaths
yeah, the ilvl requirement for e5 is, what, 450?
470 iirc
clearly your dps is tanking somewhere
11-15k isn't great depending on what jobs you have
it's 455, apparently
to do e5s?
dragoon, sam, rdm dnc
You're probably looking at normal entry ilvl
you right
11-15k for each DPS? What about the tanks/heals?
don't know exact numbers
raid leaders say we should be doing enough
we just.....fail??

Well, 11k-15k seems pretty low to me.
based one what you've said, yes, you should be doing enough as long as you don't die
I mean sure you're doing enough to clear without dying
but your numbers are pretty low, especially considering you outgear the fight
But if you're on the cusp of enrage in E5S, good luck clearing the rest of the tier
if you have any parses, try running 'em through https://xivanalysis.com/ to see if there's anything obvious y'all can improve on
I mean, FFLogs is your friend for figuring this stuff out. For the jobs you listed, 15k would be ~25th percentile (green parse). 11k wouldnt even be 10th percentile (grey)
i have this X appearing and doesnt let me use that glamour for my lance
it's ok to be gray 
and since the DPS are fairly low, one worries that if the tanks/healers arent contributing enough, you wont have enough total DPS.
what lance are you trying to glamour, xul?
im tryna put pike of the fiend onto a grey msq reward lance
Its not ok to be grey
You cant do that
You can't make weaker stuff look stronger
adamantite spear
what level is the msq lance?
Being grey at first is ok
You cant glamour a higher level weapon onto a lower level weapon
But you really shouldn't be happy with grey
ilvl145
ilvl doesn't matter
lvl 60
Its the equip level that matters
Equip level
the base item must have an equal or greater ilvl than the glamour
No
Anyway, the "acceptability" of grey aside, my point was that if their DPS are all greyparsing, then if the not-DPS arent pulling their weight there's zero possibility they have enough total DPS
what is equip level
The level needed to equip it
Two row below item level
...that's just "level"

where can i buy good lvl 60 lance?
ishgard vendors sell level 60 weapons iirc
What does e5s stand for ?
Just buy the Shire lance with poetics in Iydlshire
im in idyllshire but they only sell shield
Eden 5 Savage
^
@molten spruce you're on the wrong tab if all you see is a shield
The weapons are sold in the right most vendor
you have to buy the tokens
or Eden's Verse: Fulmination (Savage)
im on weapons tab
you're on hismena's tab
Go to the other vendor
the primal gear one?
Yes
ah i saw
K, thanks much guys and gals
The middle vendor sells them
from the vendor you were just at
is memoria misera EX better than neo ish
No
They're the same ilvl
got it
but stat wise
Depends on your job
But if you're hoping to pick up Memoria gear to raise your dps, it won't help much over Ishgard
for tanks or heals
Do they have Neo Ishgard?
yes
Wouldnt Ish in theory be better regardless because it can be penta'd
Can they?
we're not penta anyway
Huh, they are to
What is the best glamour for samurai?
Well then it'd be a small DPS increase
Either way, given your earlier questioning - if you're thinking of switching to memoria to solve your E5S DPS problem, its likely not going to help
But your lose in damage is most likely from player skill and not gear
Getting a slight bump in damage is only going to help with E5S
If you can't work out why you're not doing enough damage, then you haven't fixed the problem

Well that's a pretty massive problem
Most standard rotations from the Balance naturally have the buffs lined up
Are they not using a proper rotation?
the melees should be
Try to plug the FFLogs parse into https://xivanalysis.com/ to see any glaring problems
Then it shouldn't be a problem
guess they just didn't know
Where do i unlock the hairstylist
Complete Beauty is Only Scalp Deep in Limsa
"To unlock the Aesthetician, players must complete the level 15 quest Beauty is Only Scalp Deep. Players can start the quest by talking to S'dhodjbi at Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (x11,y11)"
hello there everyone, i've returned to the game after a 4ish year break.... is palace of the dead the best place to level other jobs or is dungeons better?
PotD is ideal for dps below level 61
after 61 you move to Heaven on High
and then at 71 you spam highest-level dungeon + FATEs
tanks and healers just spam dungeons the whole way through
Dungeons are technically the best and fastest way but are affected dramatically by queue times. If the wait is too long, PotD and HoH can bypass the wait to an extent.
ah.. well back to grinding then XD thank you for the info 😄
is blm hard to the point where it's best to know the raid/dungeon before playing blm?
is bard the easiest class in arr in ffxiv?
what
Try samurai
you can't ride on someones mount unless its a 2 seater and youre in their party
My FC master teached me this
that's probably for heavensward and above once i buy the expansion
samurai isnt a heavensward job
but for buying arr and completing it, what's the easiest class?
but i need the expansion
i was thinking of playing black mage to complete arr
BLM is fun
if you like it then play it
It also has a straightforward rotation
but i worry the difficulty that people keep talking about
they say the rotation is easy but they say it's hard in raids
if you like the class you'll learn how to play it
BLM difficulty is a meme
if you have the muscle memory for blm, you can do just fine blind on fights
if you don't have the muscle memory, then you're fighting both the rotation and mechanics
@remote lintel
but this is something thats true to any job
How do i get a in game girlfriend?
stop pinging me
you're gonna get noticed by the mods if you keep it up
You're literally the only other person asking questions in this chat

This is the last place you should be looking for that, and if you keep it up I will remove you.
:V
personally i liked BLMs rotation quite a bit
but that does come with the caveat that i never seriously raided with it
but yes @spare plinth if you like the class you'll learn how to play it anyway and the "difficulty" wont be so bad
is salted earth a one time 60 potency or a dot
oh ok
can i glamour a ninja item to a dragoon?
no
i'm probably gonna be an easier class to do the expansions like samurai and red mage
salted earth is a ground dot @mental garnet
Salted Earth is a dot
Is crystarium better than neo ish?
cool, thanks yall
tyty!
the emperors new stuff is just blank?
yes, its invisible gear
ok
it's there so that you can be nakey 
what rewards am i missing out on by not doing daily front line queues (or any pvp at all really)?
like, significant ones (QoL, gear upgrades, etc.)
glamours, and some exp
Just glamour stuff
aight
is power leveling a thing in this game?
what do you mean
unless you're leveling BLU: no, not really
In terms of EXP gains
(Once a day) Daily roulettes > highest level leveling dungeon > trust (71-80) > palace of the dead/Heaven On High > everything else

i guess the question for power leveling is
do you want to do it in the least amount of playtime, or the least amount of real-world time
real world time lol
why is it once a day?
roulettes are once a day
press U
playing through the story
click on the button with the ?
If it's your first job
you need to do the MSQ
it's mandatory
since the vast majority of the leveling dungeons are also locked behind it
please do the MSQ.
yeah, the MSQ by itself will do most of the heavy lifting for leveling up your first class
technically it was for my second class i was working on
cause I was starting maruader
lol
but i get your jist
in the copied factory does each seperate boss drop different pieces of gear?
Yes. Each boss has its own loot table.
oo okay tyty!
can I reobtain relic weapons if I discard one? resistance weapons that is
yes you can just undertake the quest again as the job you want
you'll need the scalepowder though

What's the best crafting food to make? o-o
I think most BiS use Blood Bouillabaisse or Mejillones al Ajillo since they provide CP
tyty!
So I want my Weapon to upgrate to Zenith so it'll glow for glamour
Purchase 3x “Thavnairian Mist” from Mor Dhona, Auriana, tab Allagan Tomestones of Poetics (Special Arms)
Then return to Hyrstmill and interact with the furnace behind Gerolt and Drake
ok
Select the weapon to upgrade, and hand in the Thavnairian Mist.
thats it?
Yeah
Does SAM have anima or relic weapons?
@vivid wolf no, as it didn’t exist when those relics came out
it doesnt haha
ty
Undyed, the natural blue colour lights up brighter.
Is 1 mil a day considered a lot or on the low end?
For most players that’s a lot
but by "not" most players standards?
There will always be players with more

Well
Some either get rich via high end raids, while others use the shady route of real world trading
For very rich players who own markets that’s not a lot
The highest end crafter pull in 8 digits per day on a very good day (week 1 of a new patch)
Cant really compare it to the non-average
Like

In general it’s a lot.
I half ass my craft and I get between half a mil to one mil per day on most days
I'm only on furniture right now since I haven't entered shadowbringers
but market starting to slow down and I'm running out of non-furniture to sell now
why do you need too much money here? Seems like most weapons and progression aren't in the marketplace.
It’s luxury for housing/glamour
