Check other servers.

wintry chasm
#

Story? It's fine. For raid? Nah

finite socket
#

And then theres like a weekly currency right, i just need to keep capping that?

kind eagle
#

@wintry chasm

faint flare
#

You'll need like 470+ for the new extreme probably

kind eagle
#

ty

pure flicker
#

480 should be good enough to get you doing expert roulette fine and then getting tomes for crystarium gear

simple shore
#

Like, i cant speak for your datacenter

finite socket
#

I dont mind paying whatever my current data center charges. I dont have money to change servers

simple shore
#

But on Primal, Famfrit is the cheap server. Neo-Ish gear goes for 40-50k each piece on this server. Every other server is still 100-150k each.

Ye

wintry chasm
#

...actually, what menu is the timer section in in-game?

gloomy ice
#

General Actions

simple shore
#

Duty -> Timers

wintry chasm
#

Duty

#

Thanks

gloomy ice
#

Oh dang

pure flicker
#

thats a good plan mightyo. you can also start farming star clusters from roulettes to get materia too

gloomy ice
#

Man I am striking out today

halcyon glen
#

Also if you wanna shop on here, kupo bot has market board stuff

wintry chasm
#

Go to duty -> timers and you can see all that in game @white bronze

nova umbra
#

I'm only a level 50 scholar so far so pardon my inexperience, but from what I can tell, am I supposed to hold on to my aetherflow stacks and just use Lustrate and Energy Drain to weave off an instant spell like Bio II/Ruin II/Art of War? Or should I be trying to use all these stacks before Aetherflow comes back up, even if it's not between ogcd's?

faint flare
#

You need to blow all stacks before aetherflow is back up

#

Weave them properly

wintry chasm
#

But also save it for spells

faint flare
#

You have a minute to burn through 3 stacks

cyan elm
#

i didn't start yet and i saw they're reworking the beginning story, did they do that yet?

finite socket
#

Okay but just to sum it up, after i get my neo/480 gear i should focus on the weekly currency from dungeons?

faint flare
#

No

#

On August thry will

nova umbra
#

so like if I need to heal someone, I should just use Physick + Lustrate because physick has a low cast time?

halcyon glen
#

A month from yesterday @cyan elm

wintry chasm
#

Save them for healing but if aetherflow is coming back soon just blow on aether drain

gloomy ice
#

There's a kind of rhythm to it. Don't burn them too quickly and have nothing for 50 seconds but don't keep them until CD.

faint flare
#

Do Ruin 2 then lustrate

cyan elm
#

o ok, story is what'll get me through it all. i hope it's still engaging some what

wintry chasm
#

Just use lustrate @nova umbra

faint flare
#

You try to mimize GCD healing as much as possible

simple shore
#

@finite socket i would make your first thing to do after you get there to go unlock the Copied Factory raid and complete it. Also go unlock and complete the 3 24-man raids from Stormblood (the Ivalice series)

wintry chasm
#

Physick is pretty disappointing heal spell

faint flare
#

So Ruin 2/art of war then lustrate

simple shore
#

Those two things will prepare you for wahts coming in the next patch

nova umbra
#

hmm okay

cyan elm
#

can you respec skills or something like that?

faint flare
#

No

#

There's no specs

cyan elm
#

so i can just choose my dumb stuff

finite socket
#

@simple shore So those things are requirements for the patch to come?

cyan elm
#

oo ok

wintry chasm
#

@cyan elm sure it is. It's just a bit slow at the start is all

#

Also yeah no specs

nova umbra
#

I guess I need to force myself to use Ruin II more often to weave. I've only been using it so far when I had to dodge skills

faint flare
#

Only "building" is gear wise

cyan elm
#

ok, so it's like. i hit a level then i get a new one?

faint flare
#

For substats

simple shore
#

@finite socket the Ivalice raids are required for the current Relic weapon, which upgrades next patch. Copied Factory is required for the raid that follows it, which is also next patch

wintry chasm
#

Basically Mello yeah

faint flare
#

Your skills will come to you

#

Some need your job quests done

halcyon glen
#

Please do your job quests

cyan elm
#

aaaaaaaand does the PC support controller : X.

halcyon glen
#

yes

faint flare
#

Yes

wintry chasm
#

Yes

#

Nice

faint flare
#

Very good support

cyan elm
#

job quests, got it

faint flare
#

VERY good controller support

cyan elm
#

oo nice! im getting a handheld pc in a month or 2

wintry chasm
#

Controller > KB+M
Don't @ me

cyan elm
#

so im just going to use controller now then

pure flicker
#

the game is more about learning new rotations for your class and being super optimal with them and movement rather than trad specs and talent trees from wow

finite socket
#

Alright and getting those raids done @simple shore Can be done via duty finder or?

simple shore
#

Yes

faint flare
#

Yes

cyan elm
#

im coming from ESO so skill points always caught me up

#

to the point where i didn't like it

halcyon glen
#

Don't be the DRK in Snowcloak (a 50 dungeon) that says "I don't have Living Dead" and then pulls the entire dungeon anyway

#

do your job quests

wintry chasm
#

That's a yikes from me

gloomy ice
#

A majority of your most essential skills are behind job quests so keep up with those

halcyon glen
#

"I only have one Benediction my dude, if I have to use it in the first pull, I don't have it for the second"

sweet estuary
#

Anyone from leviathan? I just came back and looking to make friends

wintry chasm
#

Yeah if you don't do your job quests it shows and people will yell at you in every dungeon lol

lapis sorrel
#

Hi guys. Is the online starter edition the recommended package to buy for new players?

halcyon glen
#

If you want the full game, you want the complete edition

cyan elm
#

im using the trial, heh

#

how much is it anyway

wintry chasm
#

Free trial first and then if you're sold get the complete edition which is everything yeah but if you aren't sold getting the starter edition and then Shadowbringers later is okay

little swift
#

The trial first before you buy

sweet estuary
#

:(

lapis sorrel
#

Okay thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

cyan elm
#

i love FF and i want to get into a mmorpg. i hope this works out : D

lapis sorrel
#

Same

little swift
lapis sorrel
#

The complete edition is 40euros btw

sweet estuary
#

Thanks alot

halcyon glen
#

This is an FF game that happens to be an MMORPG.

lapis sorrel
#

The fact that I didnt know a ff mmo existed...I wanna beat myself

halcyon glen
#

There's two, actually

lapis sorrel
#

Especially when its one of my fav franchises

azure kettle
#

How is rdm in comparison to smn?

faint flare
#

Its weaker damage wise

halcyon glen
#

The other dead-er one has a character named Lion actually ๐Ÿ˜›

faint flare
#

But still fine

#

And capable

wintry chasm
#

@lapis sorrel yeah there are two. XI and XIV though XI is super oldschool and it shows

azure kettle
#

Like 5% weaker or is it a big jump?

wintry chasm
#

It's fine

faint flare
#

A few percent

nova umbra
faint flare
#

Those are the gear set numbers

strange coral
#

You can turn them in to macros, but then you'd be trading the numbers for cogs

delicate stone
#

Should I use divination and sleeve draw when clearing out mobs? Or save it for a boss

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Blow everything on trash

#

Mobs are more deadly than bosses

#

Faster trash dies, less healing cooldowns you need to use

lapis sorrel
#

I wanted to play black mage because I always play casters in mmorpg but the rotation seems super complicated. Im used to fire mages in wow ๐Ÿ˜ณ

little swift
#

The CDs come up as you go anyways

delicate stone
#

gotcha, thanks!

#

lul, you should see summoner's 2 minute opener

#

most classes make sense once you start playing em tho

simple shore
#

If you want a simpler caster, try RDM

halcyon glen
#

Not that you can play RDM at the start

lapis sorrel
#

Yea im aware of that. The classes that I liked the most (samurai and rdm) are only available at 50

cyan elm
#

can black mage heal too?

halcyon glen
#

no

cyan elm
#

or is that a dps

delicate stone
#

They have a personal shield iirc on a long cd

faint flare
#

Red mage is the only dps that has a real heal

halcyon glen
#

Some DPS jobs have a little healing

faint flare
#

For others

cyan elm
#

ok im going to stick to me trying a healer. i played DPS in eso twice and it didn't feel that great after a while

halcyon glen
#

DNC has AoE cure 1 on a 60 second cooldown

cyan elm
#

so long to get into dungeons

halcyon glen
#

so that's... a thing?

delicate stone
#

I'd recommend starting w/ scholar, doing the main story on a healer is rough

#

Scholar let's you level smn and a healer simultaneously

deft quiver
#

So, i already have 480 gear for the 2 main classes i use, and have capped out on phantasmagoria, what else can i use them on?

halcyon glen
#

Not that it's not possible - healers have the added benefit of insta-queue in dungeons

faint flare
#

Materials to sell

#

Like dried hi ether

delicate stone
#

It's very easy to multiclass in this game, I have a SMN for the msq and an AST (the class i want to main) that I take into all the dungeons

halcyon glen
#

If you like super rush MSQ you might get walled a couple times if you try to do 2 classes at once

#

But at a normal pace yeah it's easy

delicate stone
#

True, but if your second class is a healer, instant roulette queues to keep its level up makes up for it a bit

lapis sorrel
#

Btw at what level do u get the potion thingy to change races?

halcyon glen
#

uh, about that

#

You get afaik exactly one free Fantasia

forest laurel
#

once you beat the base game's story

halcyon glen
#

as a reward for finishing the second level 50 main story quest

delicate stone
#

So around the end of ARR I'm guessing

halcyon glen
#

The end of 2.0

forest laurel
#

yes

lapis sorrel
#

Got it. Thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

hallow bloom
#

how do i undo a glamour/glamour plate?

halcyon glen
#

glamour dispeller

hallow bloom
#

inc plate?

halcyon glen
#

i... actually dunno for plates

faint flare
#

Theres a glamour dispeller plate

#

To removed everything

#

But still need the dispellers on you

agile laurel
#

@lapis sorrel i'd honestly say fire mage is somewhat harder than black mage, just factoring in the difference in brainpower required to pyroblast fish correctly, or just press the rotation in the right order

#

oh my chat just scrolled, whoops

lapis sorrel
#

@lapis sorrel i'd honestly say fire mage is somewhat harder than black mage, just factoring in the difference in brainpower required to pyroblast fish correctly, or just press the rotation in the right order
@agile laurel hmm really? Fire mage rotation w lucid is super easy, just requires muscle memory. Guess I just need to get used to the game

agile laurel
#

black mage rotation is also... super easy, just requires muscle memory

#

and fight knowledge requiring you to not move, cause there is no scorch

gloomy ice
#

Black Mage is made somewhat complicated due to the fact that every few levels, the rotation changes dramatically but by the end, it really isn't as complicated as it seems on the outside.

agile laurel
#

well actually there is kinda a scorch, it's called scathe, but the official black mage advice is nobody uses scathe ever

forest laurel
#

fire mage rotation

#

what

lapis sorrel
#

Okay thats good to know, Iโ€™ll keep levelling my blm/tha then

!faq mounts

zinc orbitBOT
#
Mounts FAQ

'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.

kind eagle

yep indeed

#

its much cheaper

Do you know any good tights

hallow bloom
open heart
#

the maid set that I showed you has a cute skirt with tights, but everything else pretty much is in the mog station, you can also wear the B2 boots, for a similar effect

kind eagle

ancient lotus
#

hi is there a setting somewhere to turn off cutscenes in dungeons or at least turn off cutscenes altogether and then when i come out of dungeons i can turn it back on again? im going through arr for my first time and story is my main thing but ive only just realised nobody else is watching cutscenes with me and i get left behind by the party because of it. id rather watch the scenes afterwards and not hold things up! any help thanks ^^

elfin wagon
#

ah i see thank u

simple shore
#

@ancient lotus No, but you may find these settings useful. It doesnt fix your problem, but it prevents you from having it twice and having to manually hit skip

ancient lotus
#

thank you!

cyan elm
#

um, for the character name. is that what everyone will see or just the thing i named it

elfin edge
#

everyone sees your Firstname Lastname character name

cyan elm

hey, so i just crafted a neo ring for my ninja, and when i finished it, it just disappeared? theres no doubt in my mind that it didnt break, read chat logs to see that i did finish it. used my mats too. has anyone had something like this happen before? is there anything i can do about it? ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

faint flare
#

Is it in your armoury chest

gloomy ice
#

Crafted gear first appears in the inventory by default, not the armory chest.

Check both to be certain though

cyan elm
#

k im reading. if i choose ACN i can only do healer role at 30 when i hit scholar... is arcanist good enough though?

pure flicker
#

summoner is a class shared with scholar, which comes from arcanist, and its considered top tier dps right now

cyan elm
#

oo, i do like the idea of being a healer though..

pure flicker
#

scholar is definitely good too

cyan elm
#

can you mix and match abilities?

#

to mainly heal

#

then down time do some dps

#

or does that not sound like a very good thing to do

pure flicker
#

well, all healers are expected to DPS and contribute to rDPS in some capacity

cyan elm
#

so hard to decide

#

i just want to know if arc can keep up with healing later! and i won't kick myself

#

i think they look cooler too mhm

pure flicker
#

but they are two separate classes so they technically get different skills. but summoner can still Rez and do basic heals

#

You unlock scholar, you'll be able to heal

#

That's what their entire role is

cyan elm
#

sorry i don't understand too much yet. but can you have summoner and scholar equipped at the same time?

#

or does everything just get put into the same bar

pure flicker
#

No, at level 30 you unlock the ability to get job crystals. Which are crystals you equip to turn into the endgame jobs.

cyan elm
#

oo, so conj is just good at healing from the get go?

#

but they both turn into scholars?

pure flicker
#

So if you put in a scholar crystal you become a scholar. And have seperate hot bars. And then you can also unlock summoner

#

No, conjurer turns into White Mage

#

with a different toolkit

#

but still a Healer

cyan elm
#

oo, so would i be letting down people if i group up as a scholar?

pure flicker
#

No

cyan elm
#

ok, i think acn is the way ill go... best of both worlds?

pure flicker
#

You'll queue in as a Healer, so your primary role in a dungeon will be to heal

cyan elm
#

any downsides?

gloomy ice
#

Think of job crystals as class promotions. Arcanist is the only class that has promotion options.

cyan elm
#

and for the look.. are you limited to your job clothing?

pure flicker
#

Arcanist starts as a DPS. At level 30 you can get the Scholar class

cyan elm
#

or is there like an aesthetic slot

pure flicker
#

Yeah, most of the time you are limited to your class gear

#

Or role gear

cyan elm
#

ok.... acn i go !!!!

grim adder
#

If i play as scholar does summoner level up? 0-0

cyan elm
#

they look cool

#

i think i read it does?

#

correct me

faint flare
#

Yes

pure flicker
#

I believe scholar and summoner share levels

faint flare
#

They share xp cause they have arcanist base

grim adder
#

Oo ok

#

I now realize I couldโ€™ve farmed the fates as summoner and not scholar ๐Ÿ˜”

pure flicker
#

later on you can unlock glamors which allow you to put cosmetic gear over your current gear mello

cyan elm
#

ok, time to recreate my conj for an ACN

faint flare
#

You still need to gear and do job quests

#

For the other jov

pure flicker
#

Conj is still great, you don't need to recreate

#

You can just unlock the arcanist class when you go to Limsa

cyan elm
#

i just started, i like how acn looks though. and they can both heal? : ]

#

i just ended the first cut scene haha

pure flicker
#

oh well if you are like level 1 i guess it doesnt matter lol

faint flare
#

Arcanist goes into a healer

#

But arcanist isn't a healer itself

cyan elm
#

i getcha, ill choose the job later on!

faint flare
#

Physick on arcanist is garbage

cyan elm
#

whats physick? : /

faint flare
#

Their heal

halcyon rune
#

Arcanist and Summoner heal gets outclassed VERY quickly. We recommend removing it at higher levels.

pure flicker
#

its the arcanist heal

faint flare
#

It scales off of mind

#

Buuuuut

#

Arcanist uses intelligence

#

Soooooo

#

Yeah

cyan elm
#

ok maybe i should just conj then lol

#

ok that sounds crappy

pure flicker
#

You should watch a video on scholar online to see the different

faint flare
#

As arcanist/summoner, you heal the same as you did at lv1

halcyon rune
#

Pre50 gear sometimes have both Int and Mind, so it kinda works still up to that point,.

faint flare
#

Scholar uses mind which makes physick a actual heal

pure flicker
#

Scholar means you get to also level summoner for free at the same time. which means you can do both the magic and healer role quests way later at 80 for basically 2 for 1 lol

#

White Mage is a really solid healer but only has two dps buttons LOL

halcyon rune
#

Stick to it, you get 2 jobs for the price of one.

elfin edge
#

hrm I guess Holy is more mitigation than DPS heh

cyan elm
#

ok ok, back to acn then x DDDDDD

pure flicker
#

oh yeah there's holy as well

#

so 3 buttons LOL

elfin edge
#

I need to try my WHM 65 quest again; that was pretty brutal

pure flicker
#

Basically the stuff we're discussing right now tthough is like really early game stuff

#

Once you hit past 30 the classes will solidify into their actual roles and you'll be able to see the difference

cyan elm
#

i getcha, i just don't want to regret it later because i do want to be a good healer later later

#

but the dps option is nice

pure flicker
#

and you can unlock any class on your character. So you can also start as an arcanist, and then go back and try conjuruer if you are missing it. As a healer, you'll get good queue times for dungeons either way haha

halcyon rune
#

TBH they should remove the level link between SMN and SCH at this point, but make SCH work like expansion classes, starting at lv30.

#

And not requiring ACN to unlock.

elfin edge
#

I think ff14 is relatively balanced out; the different healer classes can all perform quite well, just that they're different flavors

summer stirrup
#

Totally read that as 'requiring ACNE'

pure flicker
#

yeah, at the end of the day, all healers are good

wintry compass
#

ima glad right. is there a way to switch to a melee dps class

pure flicker
#

astro is just a wee lil funky right now

#

yes

faint flare
#

You can be every job in the game

pure flicker
#

You just need to unlock the ability to travel to the other cities and talk to the class quests

#

So if you are a gladiator you can go talk to the thamauturge guy right now and become a THM

elfin edge
#

I think pugilist should be in the same city as gladiator

halcyon rune
#

Pugilist (Monk) in Uldah
Lancer (Dragoon) in Gridania
Rogue (Ninja) in Limsa

elfin edge
#

if you want melee dps

pure flicker
#

Oh yeah, pugilist too

halcyon rune
#

There's Samurai too in Uldah but that's after beating the base game at lv50.

wintry compass
#

i would like to be a samurai ill go through the game and ask later

gloomy ice
#

You first need to complete the level 10 gladiator quest in order to unlock other classes/jobs. Then, yeah, itโ€™s just a matter of going to the right trainer and unlocking the class.

faint flare
#

Cant be samurai on trial

pure flicker
#

Yeah, for samurai you'll need to be level 50 and own stormblood

halcyon rune
#

Try Ninja, it gets neat early on.

wintry compass
#

i know its not going to be in trial.

#

ninja also sounds cool

#

ill try to reach lvl cap on trial before i buy member

elfin edge
#

I just like doing somersaults while going around town as a NIN

wintry compass
#

unless theres any benefits ?

elfin edge
#

depends on if you want to craft

#

crafting can get kind of painful without the MB

summer stirrup
#

What's gunbreaker like?

elfin edge
#

still doable though (I got most of the crafters up to 35 before I bought the game)

pure flicker
#

Gunbreaker is kind of like a "dps" style tank

wintry compass
#

game sounds neat its starting to grow on me

pure flicker
#

Lots of buttons and actions to use

summer stirrup
#

Soon as i saw gunblade ๐Ÿคค

pure flicker
#

You don't really shoot your gun like a gunblade do you do really cool melee combos and lots of explosions

summer stirrup
#

Love it

#

But do they get neat fur collared coats like Squall? ๐Ÿ‘€

pure flicker
#

lol if you sub long enough you get squall's outfit for free

summer stirrup
#

Oooo do tell friendo

leaden ginkgo
#

its the 330 days subbed reward right

pure flicker
#

But they get some cool coats. The GNB literally just came out with shB so they dont have a ton of artifact sets like the other classes

summer stirrup
#

Right right, awesome

elfin edge
#

I'm still waiting for the Nanamo minion to unlock :3

summer stirrup
#

This is fun though, literally realized 4 hours passed since logging on haha

little swift
#

glad you're enjoying it!

pure flicker
#

GNB also has some of the coolest class lore related to the 5.3 patch imo

summer stirrup
#

Oh yeah?

pure flicker
#

yeah i dont want to spoil much but imo i thought it was crazy cool how it ties in

little swift
#

its related to current relic weapon stuff yes

pure flicker
#

like even before the 5.3 patch i was like "this is neat" and then after 5.3 i was like ":OOOOOOO"

summer stirrup
#

Right on, I'm pretty impressed so far with how well woven everything is in game

#

Like this is the smoothest intro to an MMO I've played

pure flicker
#

that's awesome! keep sticking with it. after level 50 it really ramps up

summer stirrup
#

Thanks, y'all have been super helpful ๐Ÿ˜

halcyon rune
#

Maybe bc they treat this game like a Single Player JRPG with coop elements.

summer stirrup
#

^^^^ totes

#

After playing looter shooters for ages, feels nice to come back to this atmosphere

halcyon rune
#

That includes the 1-hour long intro before you even get to play the game. Most MMOs just drop you in the thick of it with some minimal tutorial.

wintry compass
#

i got gear from a quest i dont see it in my inventory

halcyon rune
#

All gear goes to your Armoury by default.

pure flicker
#

it's probably in your armory chest. Press Ctrl-I

halcyon rune
#

If the armoury is full, it goes to the inventory.

wintry compass
#

ty ty

halcyon rune
#

You can also change it in setting so it goes directly to your inventory.

deft quiver
#

whats linkshell?

faint flare
#

Linkshells are basically private chat rooms

You need a invite to join one

Click on the leve itself on the journal

House of the Dead tells me I can't continue because I'm lacking strength. Does that mean I have to reset progress and start over again?

Yes, and upgrade your aetherpool

By opening more silvers

Use the other save file if you haven't

thanks vinyl

Lets just hope my next party actually takes the time to explore floors instead of rushing through it ๐Ÿ˜„

ionic hazel
#

ok so i just got my black chocobo

how do i fly on areas i cant

faint flare

You need to attune to the aether currents in the zone

#

They're in the field and from Blue quests, the final one is from the final story quest in that zone

hazy flint

what is there to look at money making wise for a cullanarian XD im currently 67

how hard is to find static as a tank? because mostly I see is statics looking for DPS or HEAL

Most statics I'm looking at are looking for tanks lol

whats a good way to farm extreme rathalos for the mount?

hello I bought ffxiv complete edition and I want to use the level boost but it tells me: The item you selected cannot be purchased with a free trial account.

nova umbra

besides just buying it from the MB, what's the best way to get Fieldcraft demimateria III?

mint breach
#

Desynthesis from many accessories

faint flare
#

Desynth bridesmaid stuff from uldah

mint breach
#

Definitely easiest^

faint flare
#

Need leatherworker for the desynth

nova umbra
#

is it better than getting artisan stuff from GC and desynthesizing?

faint flare
#

Its easier

mint breach
#

It's definitely more costly in terms of gil, but easier

faint flare
#

Cause its like a few hundred gil

nova umbra
#

ooh okay ty

mint breach
spare plinth

is it highly recommended to use a one time password thing?

open coral

One time password is linked to 2-factor-authentication, so yes.

It's extra security on your account, basically.

alrighty

stuck pike

Iโ€™m currently new and playing thru my free 30 days. Is there any reason to buy the game or expansions now? Or should I just finish my 3 days first. Any benefits of buying it now instead of just waiting.

scarlet widget
#

When trying to buy an FC plot, do you need to hold the gil or does it need to be in the company bank? Thanks in advance!

faint flare
#

On hand

half seal
#

so on the topic of zonureskin treasure maps, how do those work, roughly? roughly the same as the other treasure maps, but with harder enemies spawning in when you open it, or does it do the dungeon thing I've heard mumbling about? (also on that note, how do treasure hunt parties work?)

faint flare
#

When you kill the overworld mobs and open the chest, there's a chance a portal spawns that takes you to the special dungeon

@stuck pike are you on the base game license? or just the trial? The trial lasts forever up to level 35 on base jobs/classes

faint flare
#

Im map parties, people generally bring their own maps abd you cycle through. Loot rules depends on the person who set it up

half seal
#

exactly what I was looking for! thank you!

faint flare
#

Usually either Owner need or Free for all

crimson willow
#

just curious

#

when do i get my first mount

#

lots of walking haha

faint flare
#

Lv20 main story

#

After joining a grand company

crimson willow
#

and how uh, how end game is this game?

faint flare
#

You get access to the quest

#

Endgame depends what you wanna do...has raids with weekly locks, other content, mount farming

stuck pike
#

@little swift just on the trial

little swift
#

it lasts until you upgrade

crimson willow
#

nice

#

ive been playing it and loving it

#

but im also ganna buy WOW

#

just wondering which one has more end game content

stuck pike
#

@little swift upgrade what? And are there any benefits of paying now

little swift
#

upgrade to the starter or complete edition

#

you can keep playing the trial for as long as you want

#

if you don't upgrade

#

benefit means you can keep doing msq past lv35

stuck pike
#

@little swift so might as well just wait until lv35 before I upgrade

little swift
#

and level past 35

#

its up to you

crimson wind
#

Do 70 8 man maps have level sync

little swift
#

if you're enjoying you can upgrade early

faint flare
#

The dungeon does

#

Yes

crimson wind
#

fuck

little swift
#

you can 3 man them

#

its fine

crimson wind
#

channy

#

assuming I have people to do it with

faint flare
#

You can look for map Linkshells

#

Or set up party finder

crimson willow
#

i have a question about end game, i know they premote class swapping... i figured thats the meat of end game but can end game continuously further your main class?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Until you have the best gesr

What happens if you buy a housing plot but can't afford to build anything yet? I read you have to log in and enter houses every so often to prevent demolition. Do you just stand on the plot for the same?

faint flare
#

No

obsidian patio
#

Youโ€™d need a physical house on the plot to enter to stop auto-demolition assuming it isnโ€™t paused

#

Like how it is currently due to COVID

scarlet widget
#

Oh man, so if whenever I manage to buy a plot (assuming its not paused due to COVID) I have to buy the housing permit ASAP or I'll lose the plot?

faint flare

You have 45 days

To buy a house

#

Permit

are there any gloves like Makai Moon Guide's Fingerless Gloves?

what's a good thing to spend company seals on?

i'm at that stage where i need to do squadron stuff to rank up and my seals have nearly capped

nova umbra
faint flare
#

Its 10% mitigation

#

Not 90

quasi spire
#

in my experience people need to actually stand in it which doesnt always happen

#

and might move around based on markers

nova umbra
#

ohhhhhhhhhh

#

i'm dumb

#

I totally thought it reduced by 90% lmaoo

signal garnet
#

Whats the fastest way to get wolf marks?

#

it feels like very queue takes ages

little swift
#

frontlines roulette

#

between 1500-2k marks a day

signal garnet
#

Do I need to unlock that?

faint flare
#

You have it when you unlock pvp

halcyon rune
#

Sacred Soil should totally read "Reduces damage taken by 10%" instead of that. It's the only spell that reads as such iirc.

signal garnet
#

hmm

#

I have pvp unlocked butI dont see anything like that

#

unless im missing something

faint flare
#

In the roulette section

signal garnet
#

is it in duty roulette?

what do the dots in armoury chest mean

little swift
#

@signal garnet make sure you've done the quest "A Pup No Longer" from your grand company

#

and "Like Civilized Men and Women"

pure flicker
#

the dots mean the armor piece is dyeable

signal garnet
#

oh there it is

forest laurel
#

is it even feasible to do collectables as a lvl 61-63 crafter so I can get gear for restoration crafting? bc I'm WAY under the stats needed for restoration crafting

little swift
#

depends on your gear

#

what are you using

slate arrow
#

get HQ level 61 gear

little swift
#

^

#

theres a jump in stats between every expansion

forest laurel
#

well shit

#

will it even be enough to get me to the stats needed at all

slate arrow
#

yes

forest laurel
#

most of my crafters are 61

tulip plover
#

So how does mantra work

#

It says it boosts healing regen

forest laurel
#

I really have to waste money on gear that I'll get rid of within the next 3 levels or so huh

!action mantra

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Mantra** : lvl 42 PGL MNK (90.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases HP recovery via healing actions by 10% for self and nearby party members.
Duration: 15s

obsidian patio
#

It boosts how much healing spells and abilities heal for

tulip plover
#

Ok so i can pop that before bloodbath if i need to heal myself right?

#

Well bloodbath and second wind

obsidian patio
#

I donโ€™t think it works on bloodbath? But definitely for second wind

#

You generally use it more for the group healing than just for yourself

tulip plover
#

Oohhhhg ok

#

So it helps healers out pretty much?

faint flare
#

Yes

slate arrow
#

Kits are not designed for solo play in mind

tulip plover
#

Ok ill keep this in mind

#

And shoulder tackle is just a gapcloser/extra damage?

faint flare
#

Primarily damage

leaden ginkgo
#

can you use wear ironworks rings?

#

or only one?

forest laurel
#

they're unique so only one

#

get an augmented ring and an unaugmented ring

leaden ginkgo
#

good idea

#

thanks

tidal yarrow
#

is there a way to have different chat colors for different linshells chats?

agile laurel
#

shoulder tackle is a gap closer, but it's like

#

sitting on 2 is just as bad as sitting on any other ogcd for no reason

faint flare
#

@tidal yarrow click the cog next to the chat > log text colours

agile laurel
#

On two targets that're likely to live for a minute, does keishi-higanbana have any worth then?

leaden ginkgo

I can't

But I can add the french version for some reason

cyan elm
#

i see these little crystals everywhereon my map, can i fast travel to them?

faint flare
#

Yes, attune to ALL aetheryte and aethernet shards

#

So you can teleport to zones

cyan elm
#

oh i need to attune to them

#

darn

faint flare
#

First thing you do anytime you get to a new zone

cyan elm
#

lol

#

got it

#

should make life easier

leaden ginkgo
#

I cant find the last aether current quest for lakeland

#

it just doesnt exist on my map

#

there arent anymore blue quest markers

cyan elm
#

wait, so how do i fast travel after i attune to a shard

#

teleport?

strange coral
#

There's one for lakeland that starts in Crystarium. It's probably that one

leaden ginkgo
#

oh thats weird

#

thank you

faint flare
#

You get the teleport skill to port to othet aetherytes

#

Alternatively you can open the map and click on it

strange coral
#

@cyan elm Teleport for the large ones. For the smaller ones in the cities you have to use one of the other shards to teleport to them. You can't teleport to a small one from outside of its city

cyan elm
#

oh ok, i must not be up to that part yet

#

oh i getcha

#

maybe thats why

faint flare
#

Once you attune to another aetheryte you automatically get teleport...the small ones are like what he said

little swift
#

teleporting ain't free btw

#

costs money

#

gil not real money

cyan elm
#

$1 per tele haha

#

got it, ty!

#

good to know now

#

I'm trying to turn in an item in scrip exchange but it's grayed out? I used the recipe from my crafting log, anyone know why?

faint flare

Or just not a collectible

marsh oyster
#

@faint flare it's HQ

faint flare
#

You didn't make it a collectible

little swift
#

you made an item

#

not a collectable

#

turn on collectable synthesis

You.need to turn on collectors sy th

I wanna get moogle dance.

faint flare

You need lv50 crafter and do some side quests for it

tidal yarrow

I need level 50 crafter even to do the first steps?

faint flare

Its in ishgard

#

The side quests no

tidal yarrow

where can I accept crafter class?

Iโ€™m max level 80 in Blacksmith, but the small Exp bar under the large Exp bar keeps moving forward, similar to the โ€˜resting at Inn Exp barโ€™. What is going on?

faint flare
#

You dont need to rest at a inn for rested xp

little swift
#

resting EXP accumulates when you're in a sanctuary

faint flare
#

Just be in a sanctuary

little swift
#

doesn't matter if thats near an inn or not

#

and will accumulate regardless of your job's level

#

its only consumed when you earn EXP

#

it will accumulate to about 1.5levels worth

gloomy mortar
#

So why am I getting rested Exp for my level 80 Blacksmith?

faint flare
#

Cause you're in a sanctuary

little swift
#

you don't earn any of the exp on your 80

#

you're just in a sanctuary so its accumulating

#

rested exp can be used on any job/class

agile laurel
#

sch at 473 should really only need recit spreadlo to beat A12S divine judgement unsynced, right?

agile laurel

Around when is prime time? its 6:30 pm where I am

gloomy mortar
#

What are the minions?

crimson wind
#

A box i think?

little swift
#

#

there's the demon box

#

#

crimson wind
#

What are the chances to get to 5th floor of Lyhe Ghiah

#

Like 10%?

#

Well less than that

little swift
#

i don't think there's a publicly released statistic

crimson wind
#

Theoretical, not practical.

faint flare
#

Well its a 50/50 every time

#

So you can probably math it

little swift
#

its 50% on 50% on 50% on 50%

warped nest
#

1/32 is around 3.125%?

little swift
#

GWaobloChildPepeShrug i can't math

warped nest
#

1/16 then, 6.25%

crimson wind
#

damn

little swift
#

because you only need to get through 4 doors

#

not 5

gloomy mortar
#

Once your retainer is at max 80 level, should you just keep sending them on the max level 18-hour mission? Or is there more strategy to be used?

crimson wind
#

oh yeah

warped nest
#

This is under the assumption the doors are completely fair, and there's no pity mechanics

little swift
#

gear them to the retainer breakpoint

#

and send them on quick ventures if you want to try your luck

#

or the 1 hour hunting/gathering ones for stuff to sell

barren tundra
#

Where do I augment my Skysteel tool? I made the Oddly Specific Bolts but not what

little swift
#

#

same place you got the tool

remote lintel
#

all the SB EX unlocks are from the minstrel in kugane right?

gloomy mortar
#

Retainers on 1-hour missions bring back green/blue gear that you canโ€™t sell, just desynth. 18-hour, usually some random rock/plant that may be valuable or not plus 3500 in Gil

barren tundra
#

Nothing is coming up

#

Oh I see. It's an NPC

#

I thought I was going to have to actually craft it myself

little swift
#

Retainers on 1-hour missions bring back green/blue gear that you canโ€™t sell, just desynth. 18-hour, usually some random rock/plant that may be valuable or not plus 3500 in Gil
@gloomy mortar the quick ventures gear can be turned in to your grand company for seals

#

do the 1-hour hunting/gathering missions then

#

figure out whats valuable on your server and sell that

barren tundra
#

Oh. I need to make 20 of these.

gloomy mortar
#

Ok thanks ๐Ÿบ

twilit arch
#

@remote lintel yes, minstrel in kugane for sb exs

little swift
#

#

little swift
#

twilit arch
#

equip the main hand

faint flare
#

Equip the tool

tidal yarrow
#

on my gear sets theres no weaver

little swift
#

go into your armoury chest

#

and equip the weaver thing

tidal yarrow
#

oh

gloomy mortar
#

Is there a way to stop publicly announcing when you go online?

molten spruce
#

is there a way to see if i got the kill on frontline or see my kda b4 the match ends?

little swift
#

is there a way to see if i got the kill on frontline or see my kda b4 the match ends?
@molten spruce look at your battle high meter, it usually says KILL or ASSIST based on what you got during the a skirmish. but you can't really see your kda during the match

#

also afaik there's no appear offline setting for the game

#

there's a /busy to ignore tells and stuff

umbral yacht
#

With the new relic, I have just a small question, is it possible to put 5 type VII materias and still not cap the stat? I tried one myself and was not able to fit all 5 before the stat caps.

#

I might have to read each stat again and see maybe some stats starting at 0 might allow 5 of the one type and still not cap

gloomy mortar
#

If you blacklist someone, do they still get emote notifications? For example โ€˜this person waves at youโ€™?

nova umbra
faint flare
#

Yes its possible if yhe item has none of that stat

umbral yacht
#

cool, it might just be that then ๐Ÿ˜‰

lime geode
#

Is there any way to get rid of names for pets and minions? Or reduce the clutter?

faint flare
#

Character settings > display name settings and you can turn names on and off for various things

lime geode
#

thanks

severe coral
#

If i relocate from a Medium House to another Medium House, do all my furnishing placements stay? Like do I have to redecorate, or will everything stay in place?

faint flare
#

Redecorate

lime geode
#

So much better, thanks @faint flare

severe coral
#

Guess I'm here forever ๐Ÿ™ƒ, ty

leaden ginkgo

@umbral yacht in the case of the resistance relics, you wonโ€™t hit cap if you meld a stat that the weapon doesnโ€™t have on it

Is there a way to search for materia thatโ€™s melded?

obsidian patio
#

The stat cap for the i485 weapons is 477, which is more than what 5 grade 8 materia can be

#

Nope

barren flax
#

is resistance daggers into crystarium daggers a big boost or should i go for armor pieces?

umbral yacht
#

ic

faint flare
#

Its a small boost

barren flax
#

would it be better for me to get cryst armor instead then as im still using 480 mb gear

obsidian patio
#

For most jobs the resistance weapon is pretty equal to the base Crystarium weapons

gloomy mortar
#

If you blacklist someone, do they still get emote notifications in chat log? For example โ€˜this person waves at youโ€™?

storm jackal
#

Hello, i'm kind of lost... Just finished lvl 50 main quest, moving on I have to do new dungeons, but I don't have enough iLvl, i'm stuck at 48, what do I do next?

faint flare
#

Buy ironworks with poetics in mor dhona

#

Should have a few from the 2 50 dungeons

leaden ginkgo
#

storm jackal
#

#

Gotcha, thanks

leaden ginkgo

olive inlet
#

hello, to get the atma anima weapon, it says we need to complete fates. does that mean it can b any fate in the given areas?

faint flare
#

Any in the areas

olive inlet
#

is it a 100% drop rate for the atma crystals too? after you complete the fate(s)

faint flare
#

No

little swift
#

its a projected 25% drop rate

olive inlet
#

oh wow i see

#

thank you !

little swift
#

no one knows for sure though

#

so you could be super lucky

#

or unlucky

olive inlet
#

crimson willow
#

question where do i get my first mount? i joined a grand company and am level 20

olive inlet
#

oh yeah, do i need to equip/use my anima weap while doing these fates?

obsidian patio
#

@crimson willow do the sidequest โ€œmy little chocoboโ€. You can get the needed seals from the next story quest or two

crimson willow
#

wheres that

faint flare
#

At your grand company

obsidian patio
#

@olive inlet yes it needs to be equipped

halcyon rune
#

The game will tell you to do it at some point.

dusty quest
#

Quick question for y'all: what's the fastest way to just grind out levels? Been a little while since I really played and trying to get stuff up. I seem to recall it was PotD/HoH in the past but it's been a while

nova umbra
#

for me, it was hunting logs until 16, then GC command missions until 50, then daily roulettes past 50

obsidian patio
#

@nova umbra no. The bonus scrips are already applied to what you see. So that 106 minimum is with the star bonus included

dusty quest
#

Daily roulettes are really good for it, yeah, but I don't think you can just, like, sit down and do those over and over for a couple of hours or whatever, right? Since the daily bonus has already been claimed

nova umbra
#

yeah

dusty quest
#

Command missions is a good idea though, I need to run through more of those

nova umbra
#

purely for grinding, I think it was like.. PotD 1-60, and HoH 60-70?

#

but personally... I'd do anything but those... takes a toll on my soul

dusty quest
#

That's what I remember but that was also some months ago

#

Heh, they're definitely not very engaging

#

I remember one of my guildies tried to point a brand new player to PotD on their main class to level and it's like "bruh, they're never gonna wanna play again"

nova umbra
#

make sure to use food and squadron battle manual when doing dungeons/command missions

hallow grove
#

could someone help me with this? for some reason i haven't been gaining experience and i've done a ton of quests today

nova umbra
#

isn't that experience from killing monsters?

#

the bonus xp

faint flare
#

You're playing on a platform that doesn't have tje expansion

#

So you're locked

hallow grove
#

i need an expansion to gain more exp?

faint flare
#

Yes

rich bay
#

@gloomy mortar

To ask your question about blacklisting, yes blacklisted players will see your emotes if they didn't have BL you too.

faint flare
#

Otherwise you cant get exp over 50

nova umbra
#

he's level 53 though?

faint flare
#

Because he's on a different platform

hallow grove
#

if i buy the expansion, will all the accumulated experience i have gained be added in?

faint flare
#

No

#

Losy xp is gone forever

hallow grove
#

are you serious lol

dusty quest
#

That's rough

rich bay
#

I bought my Expansions when i got L50 on my first job, so i can confirm it. The EXP indeed is lost.

faint flare
#

The post arr quests arent much xp

dusty quest
#

Anyhoo, dipping back into FF. Thanks for the info Zydico!

hallow grove
#

i'm still in ARR though

faint flare
#

Yes

rich bay
#

The 2.1-2.5 MSQ will get a mayor EXP boost in 5.3 when it is trimmed.

faint flare
#

And quests after Ultimate weapon are post Arr

hallow grove
#

and i own all the expansions on the ps4, i gotta rebuy them

faint flare
#

And they give minimumal xp

#

Yep

hallow grove
#

well thanks for the info, this sucks lol

rich bay
#

Yup, they are different licences, no cross-licence for FF14.

Most likely you will get a free PS5 version if you own the PS4 version.

I have a question that I have never asked before which I should have

#
