tidal yarrow
#

the 100 one?

simple shore
#

Every other thing there you can get via other means

#

idk im not near the vendor

#

its got a dog on it and its a neck

tidal yarrow
#

yeah it's the most exp thing

faint flare
#

Its the 100 one

tidal yarrow
#

but 100 is 20 aurum vale runs so no thx xd

faint flare
#

The only other recommendations is the ixion mount since its a super fate reward and somewhat annoying to get

#

Rest is easy

simple shore
#

Anyway, i'd suggest priority be Ixion (because what Vinyl just said) > EX Primal Mounts (because shitty RNG) > Riding Maps (because hunt grind sucks)

twilit arch
#

riding maps tbh aren't really worth it that much especially with 5.3 giving arr flying

strange coral
#

I'd put some of the other collectible stuff like minions and TT cards before riding maps

simple shore
#

TT cards feel easy to get out of the ones available

kind eagle
#

What is allagan tomestone for

simple shore
#

i forget what minions are up but i dont remember them being hard ones

gritty oracle
#

@kind eagle You mean allagan tomestones of poetics? Buying stuff for older content. Leveling gear, materials for old relics or crafting recipes etc.

There's also other kind of tomestones, usually related to a limited time event (like the currently ongoing Law event) or endgame stuff.

kind eagle
#

Where do i find the shop for it

faint flare
#

Mor dhona has lv50 gear

#

At aelina and aurina

#

Best lv50 gear thats easy to get

#

Lasts until lv53 story/dungeon (55 if you upgrade it at north shroud)

kind eagle
#

oh

#

At aelina and aurina
@faint flare is this a map?

faint flare
#

The npcs

kind eagle
#

im just at ishgard now lv51

#

i check it out

#

i buy it its better than my current set

faint flare
#

Its mor dhona

#

The ilvl.of ironworks is 120

#

Upgradeable to 130

kind eagle
#

oh

#

my fc crafted for me lv115-125 ring and necklace

#

that lv 130 shld be better

#

and how do i fly in ishgard

#

i gotten the black chocobo

simple shore
#

All Heavensward, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers zones require you to collect Aether Currents in order to unlock flying in that zone. These are obtainable from bluequest in that zone, as well as from locations on the map. The Aether Compass will guide you to them, which the MSQ gave you alongside that Black Chocobo. Refer to the menu Travel -> Aether Currents to see your current progress towards flying in any zone.

kind eagle
#

ah i found 1 aether

simple shore
#

Usually the final aether current of a zone is (i think always?) from the MSQ

whole lagoon
#

Guys if i buy gametime card from square enix store where will i get the card or it will be automatically added

twilit arch
#

You'll get a code when you buy gametime from SE store, since its a digital purchase

gusty belfry
#

Is there a way to level blacksmithing and stuff fast?

gritty oracle
#

Crafting log until 20, then firmament

#

If you've completed the 3.3 MSQ

#

At 50 start supplementing with custom deliveries

gusty belfry
#

I'm still in the Endgame MQ from RR sadly

gritty oracle
#

Then crafting log

gusty belfry
#

Can't find groups for the instances

Automated Message: A Friendly Moogle Reminder

This channel is for new or returning players to ask questions and discuss Final Fantasy XIV. As a reminder this channel is a troll free and an off-topic free zone. For general discussion please use #general-discussion. <@&473626701947994134> are available to help in this channel. Thank-You, Kupo!

gritty oracle
#

What instances?

#

All MSQ duties are in roulettes and usually don't take longer than an hour to pop, even at dead hours as DPS

rocky tree
#

What are "ventures" from levelqmetes for?

gritty oracle
#

Retainers

#

They're the currency you use to pay retainers

rocky tree
#

No clue what retainer is either tbh :X

gusty belfry
#

Oh well I was in a queue for 4 hours without finding people before

gritty oracle
#

Retainers are your errandpeople/slaves (depending on your interpretation). You can sell items on the market board through them, and also if you're past the part in the MSQ where you you choose a grand company, you can assign them classes and send them on ventures

#

They bring you back stuff

#

@gusty belfry What is the specific instance you waited 4 hours for? Tell me the name.

gusty belfry
#

Errr it was the one with the robot you control

rocky tree
#

I'll have to read up on that I guess, ty

gritty oracle
#

Praetorium?

gusty belfry
#

Yes

#

When my healer friend queued with me we found a group in like 5 mins tho

#

Even though I was tank no one queued for 4 hours

gritty oracle
#

Huh, that's odd. It doesn't usually have a long queue. What data centre are you in and which continent do you live in? Might be dead hours for your server.

gusty belfry
#

It was like 8pm American time

simple shore
#

Yeah but what data center

gusty belfry
#

I'm on aether midgardsormr

simple shore
#

Well thats not dead hours

#

Unless you have your language settings set to something weird there's no way you should have a 4 hour queue.

#

because people queue MSQ roulette all the time

gritty oracle
#

@rocky tree You can only hire retainers once you have joined a grand company. Once there, you can go to any capital city and pick up the quest "An Ill-Conceived Venture" that allows you to send your retainers on ventures. Until then, their only use is to store items/Gil for you and sell stuff on the market board.

gusty belfry
#

Yeah well it happens I just have bad luck but my buddy helped me out so I'm now in the post story to RR and need to do the hard mode for ifrit I think?

#

Queued as tank for an hour again

simple shore
#

No amount of bad luck explains a 4 hour praetorium

gusty belfry
#

No one queued in that time

#

Well it happens :D

median locust
#

what are your language settings, there's absolutely no way you have queues over 15 minutes for normal content as a tank

rocky tree
#

I have already joined GC, I assume I should be doing the venture thingies or?

simple shore
#

No, it really doesnt

gusty belfry
#

German and english

median locust
#

Try to remove german

simple shore
#

Its almost certainly going to be something like language settings thats fucking you

median locust
#

I've heard that more languages can make queue times worse

gusty belfry
#

Well my version is from Germany since I live here can I still change it?

median locust
#

Yes

#

It's in your search info

gusty belfry
#

Okay

simple shore
#

There is zero possibility of a 4 hour praetorium queue at any hour of the day, much less at 8PM in any american timezone on an american datacenter

#

Unless, again, you have something causing it

gusty belfry
#

Well guess I'll try changing it after work today

simple shore
#

Yeah like, there's no amount of bad luck that can lead to that. Its impossible.

#

Its a setting of some kind

gusty belfry
#

Alright thanks for the info :D

simple shore
#

You need to look here -

#

Possibly you have it set to D only, which would explain everything

gusty belfry
#

Oh yes that could be I changed the other settings to English but the queue finder is probably still set on german

simple shore
#

But ideally you should just set it to E only, since you're playing on US datacenter

gusty belfry
#

It's strange tho if I queue solo for normal 1 party Dungeons I find groups rather fast

simple shore
#

idk. i just know that 4 hour praetorium queue is impossible at the hours you listed.

gritty oracle
#

@rocky tree Retainers and ventures are mostly useful if you're planning to craft and gather. They can farm you materials and sell the things you make to other players through the market board. They are in no way essential to the game. That being said, I'd get the two free ones regardless, because thwy have inventories that you can use to store stuff that doesn't fit in your inventory or armoury chest.

gusty belfry
#

Thanks a bunch again for all the info!

rocky tree
#

@gritty oracle I have no plan to craft at the moment but I assume it couldn't hurt to just have them gather for the future?

#

how do i use dyes ?

faint flare
#

You need to do a smalo quest in vesper bey to unlock dyeing

#

After that yoy just right click the gear and press dye

rocky tree
#

is it the same chcik

faint flare
#

Yes

rocky tree
#

chick* that unlocks glamour?

faint flare
#

Same one that did glamour

rocky tree
#

oke ty

faint flare
#

Called like Colour your world

lavish vortex
#

Hi!, i have a question: im trying to complete a book of objectives for a Zodiac Relic, and under the FATEs i have to complete 3 ones in different locations. But I go to the locations, and those fates dont exist... are they quest related? how do i make them appear?

median locust
#

You wait

#

Sometimes they require a previous fate to be completed

lavish vortex
#

oh, so it might never appear unless i complete other fates?

simple shore
#

Or sometimes they just have a really shitty spawn timer

#

There's one in particular in East Shroud that i remember waiting hours for

lavish vortex
#

in that case, how do i know if i need to complete a previous one or not?

median locust
#

If you're following a guide like the consolegameswiki one, it'll tell you if it requires a previous one

simple shore
#

Google the fate and look it up.

#

There's no in game explanation

lavish vortex
#

got it, thanks!

median locust
#

If it's not up on your server you can also use world visit to check other servers

lavish vortex
#

what a pain haha, thanks a lot guys!

simple shore
#

As bad as it is now - imagine how much worse it was when people were actually clearing them

#

Doing the Zeta lines in ARR was a nightmare

lavish vortex
#

i can only imagine haha thank god i didnt play in that time

#

and the time in which they appear is random? or are there set times you can check online?

simple shore
#

Random

#

In theory it may help to clear other FATEs in the zone, as I think there is a cap to how many FATEs can be up, but that could be total bullshit snakeoil that we believed back in the day

twilit arch
#

yes there is a limit on how many can be active

lavish vortex
#

oh, so i might "force" the one im looking to spawn.. kind of? that would make sense

median locust
#

Better to just world visit until you find the Fate, it's going to be way faster than clearing fates and waiting for the one you want

worldly otter
#

how many bonus gc seals does the squadron chemistry give on average?

normal breach
#

In New patch updates do we normally just get quests or do new items and locations and crafting gathering recipes happen ad well?

#

Wondering if I need to be up to date for the latest patch

lavish vortex
#

@median locust how do I do that? Visit other worlds I mean

faint flare
#

But we get new story, new raids, new dungeons, new trials

patent cave
#

what are hunt trains aside from just running all the hunts you get on the hunt board with multiple people

faint flare
#

We dont get higher ilvl gear than what we have

#

Odd oatches are "catch up"

#

There's new crafting receipes as well for new crafted gesr

@lavish vortex you go to the main aetherite in a city and click visit another world

white bronze
#

Any tips for retainer gear to get em rare dyes ๐Ÿ‘€

obsidian wren
#

Increase ilvl

twilit arch
#

get them to lvl 80 and get them to atleast ilvl 428.

#

then send them out as often as you can on quick ventures

obsidian wren
#

For gatherers you wanna increase their gathering stat, but for combat only ilvl matters

vagrant copper
#

@patent cave Hunt trains are large enough that they usually go after Rank A and Rank S creatures that don't even appear on hunt boards. Anyone who participates in the hunt gets rewards.

patent cave
#

oh so theres more to it than just whats posted on the boards

#

til

#

ty

twilit arch
#

if they're hunting for the dyes, then gathering stat won't matter

rich flume
#

Hey, is there going to be a rerun of the ff15 event? I just saw the car and I'd love to have it

faint flare
#

We dont know

median locust
#

It's more than likely to be coming back at some point. When? We don't know. Is it going to be a rerun or directly going to Mogstation? Don't know either.

gritty oracle
#

@rocky tree Yes. I recommend you set one to your main class, so it gains levels when going to ventures, and the other also to your main class, but after you pick up a gatherer, reset the second retainer and set it to botanist, miner or fisher.
Also note that the retainer's class cannot exceed your own. Say, a scholar retainer can only go as high as your own scholar is, the botanist is capped at your own botanist level etc

mortal root
#

for crafting/gathering should i be melding with materia 8's and overmelding with 7's?

leaden ginkgo
#

hey everyone, how's it going? I don't know whether this is against the rules or not, but does anybody know of a server where people gather for dungeons and stuff like that? I've been for a week already trying to get some primal expert dungeons I unlocked done and haven't had any luck with the party finer

#

finder *

median locust
#

Duty finder?

#

Queues aren't bad if you use that

leaden ginkgo
#

i meant that

vagrant copper
#

"primal expert dungeons"?

leaden ginkgo
#

yah, the one for shiva and garuda

median locust
#

oh

#

EXTREME

simple shore
#

Ex stands for extreme, not expert

median locust
#

don't do extremes in duty finder

leaden ginkgo
#

I already finished with HW and still haven't had any luck finding parties for those :c

#

ah that thing, sorry

median locust
#

Do extremes in party finder (which is different from duty finder)

vagrant copper
#

Most people only do EX trials in Party Finder using the "undersized party" option which lets you do them at level 80 instead of level 50.

median locust
#

If it has Extreme, Minstrel's Ballad, Savage or Binding Coils in the name, do them using party finder, don't queue for them directly

#

It'll save you a lot of time and headache

leaden ginkgo
#

ah sweet, thank you everyone

#

by the way,

#

what exactly are raids? at the end of ARR, I unlocked Bahamut's and now I just unlocked Alexander, I guess

#

but have never tried them

median locust
#

They're like 8-man trials but harder

#

There's two difficulties, Normal and Savage

solemn delta
#

Is there a bot command for a quick guide to glamour plates? Can't for the life of me figure out what to do with them

#

Maybe best going youtube

median locust
#

Binding Coils are Savage even if they don't say Savage next to the name

#

Alexander starts as normal mode, you can queue for that directly

wintry compass
#

how many seals for the chocobo

median locust
#

200 I think weeaboo

wintry compass
#

bet

#

ty

leaden ginkgo
#

thank you Fissie, it means the world

flint grove
#

@wintry compass you get enough seals like 2-3 MSQ's after unlocking the grand company

leaden ginkgo
#

so you'd recommend not touching Bahamut yet? since it says Binding Coil

median locust
#

You can, but use party finder and use the undersized party options so lv80's can carry you through them

#

Doing them synced at lv50 will be too much of a headache, not worth it

#

They're old endgame raids

leaden ginkgo
#

is there anything to gain from them except for poetics?

solemn delta
#

There's not really anything of importance in there since we're way past that

#

So I would continue with your story for now

median locust
#

Some glamour can only be acquired from them

#

Coils story is pretty good, you can do them whenever

leaden ginkgo
#

ahh i suppose then I'd be a good break from MSQ. I'm burnt out.

#

it'd*

solemn delta
#

Like once I was 80, actually had a few 80s I went back and soloed them much easier and no headache like fissie said

median locust
#

If you put up a party finder, make sure you say you're running through them for the first time. Having a new person makes every fight give bonus poetics so people will be glad to help you

solemn delta
#

There's 1 encounter that's a bit of a pain to solo but it's not too bad

#

Yeah

leaden ginkgo
#

ah love love

#

thank you everyone!! you're so kind

median locust
#

You can do them at 80 but people won't mind carrying you if you do them now, I'm sure

solemn delta
#

Out of curiosity what job are you?

#

Yeah people want poetics for sure

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm an astro!

solemn delta
#

And the speed you do them with unsynced is crazy

#

So before I look up a guide, for glamour plates do I just need to have a crap ton of prisms for when I change jobs?

faint flare
#

No

#

Using plates is free

solemn delta
#

Oh nice

faint flare
#

Putting stuff in the dresser costs 1 prism per item you put in

leaden ginkgo
#

hey, is there a way to enable subs in the ''movie'' cutscenes?

solemn delta
#

I'm always capped on seals anyway lol

gritty oracle
#

But you can only use plates in cities that have a loading screen (the three capitals, Ishgard, Rhalg, Kugane etc)

median locust
#

basically any main city except mor dhona

#

and housing areas

solemn delta
#

Right so I would need to go there to change jobs?

#

To look the way I want

median locust
#

To change plates yeah

solemn delta
#

I see

median locust
#

Go to any Inn to start editing your plates, adding stuff to your glamour dresser, etc

nova umbra
#

I feel like I'm maybe using Medica II on Whm too much... are there situations where I wouldn't use Medica II after a raid wide AOE happens?

solemn delta
#

Cause I'm sick of my PLD looking like a GNB and my MNK looking like a SAM ๐Ÿ˜‚

gritty oracle
#

So the way it works
You create a plate
You go to a city
You apply the plate
If you open your Character, you can see now the gear has a little red plus sign in the corner
So it will always look the way the plate made it look, even if you unequip it, until you apply anothe plate or s dispellers

#

@nova umbra If you need raw hp, right now. Then you use Medica.

craggy scarab
solemn delta
#

How long have you been waiting? Anyone I know have got there keys within minutes..

craggy scarab
#

i have been waiting maybe 5 minutes

solemn delta
#

And thanks @gritty oracle screened that I'll do some glamour later

#

Make my MNK look like a MNK! lol

white bronze
#

Do they have to be a gatherer class for the dyes.. Mindes are combat

solemn delta
#

And @craggy scarab i don't have too much knowledge but if I didn't have my key after an hour I would make a support ticket

#

Someone will know better than me though

craggy scarab
#

@solemn delta dw i just had to refresh the page for some reason

#

lol

solemn delta
#

Ha, yeah, it's usually pretty much generated by the site I think

grizzled wasp
#

hewo!! could a whitemage please post their keyboard layout here for me? everything got reset and idk where to start now, it'd be a huge help!!

craggy scarab
#

do you know where i enter the code?

proper sonnet
#

It will always say that, but it doesn't take long, besides.... you don't need to actually use the key.

solemn delta
#

Should be mogstation.

craggy scarab
#

oh that website

proper sonnet
#

SE just needs to say that your account is linked with the expansions on mogstation

solemn delta
#

Yes that's the official website for everything FFXIV related

#

Your subscription, buying stuff, keys etc

sturdy mason
#

For E8S Light Rampant, Is sharingan and ayatori the same thing?

nova umbra
#

As a Whm, how often do you use swift cast to weave ogcds?

#

Or should they be reserved for raises only

faint flare
#

I sit in the camp of using swiftcast liberally

#

Yes you could swiftcast the raise BUUUUUUT you can save that mana and swiftcast the heal to prevent them dying in the first place

median locust
#

I'm no pro WHM but to use Swiftcast you still have to use oGCD space, so if you're gonna delay your next GCD to use swiftcast, why not delay your next GCD with the oGCD you wanted to cast in the first place

faint flare
#

Dont save for emergencies happen, prevent the emergancies from happening to begin with

median locust
#

but yeah you can still use it for movement and casting heals faster if that's needed

simple shore
#

There's nothing that bothers me more in dungeons as a tank as being swiftcast raised. Because it means you could have swiftcast (insert big heal here) and instead we're going to wipe.

solemn delta
#

What we're the npcs called that I can buy all the old job related gear from called again?

rough anchor
#

Is desynthing antiquated lv70 gear and re-buying it from a calamity salvager a good idea to level desynth, or is there some catch that prevents it?

median locust
#

Calamity Salvager?

solemn delta
#

That's it mate cheers.

median locust
#

I don't think you can desynth the 70 job gear but I might be wrong

simple shore
#

You cannot

solemn delta
#

Someone mentioned theres a way to get them but I'm not sure

#

From another source

median locust
#

You can't desynth the 70 job gear for that exact reason, they don't want people to abuse the calamity salvager to level desynth

nova umbra
#

Ohhh I was watching this video and he weaved a swiftcast to use the next glare as a weave window :O

median locust
#

You can desynth the lv60 job gear though, because those are obtained from centurio seals

#

Yeah don't do that unless you needed it for movement too

#

Like instead of the swiftcast he could've used the oGCD he wanted instead lol

nova umbra
#

Yeah he was doing that while running in e5s

#

Dang, I just started learning about weaving and it makes me realize I've been playing this game wrong all this time :(

#

Should I not worry about weaving while progging?

sturdy mason
#

@nova umbra I use swiftcast for glare during certain movement mechanics in boss fights. How you use it is adaptable. For example in E7S, I use it to swiftcast + medica 2 when we split for puddles right before add phase comes up . I run to the front, instant medica 2 to put regen on everyone, then run south to get into position for Away with Thee.

The Balance discord is a really good resource for knowing how to efficiently play your job, I'd recommend you check it out. It's where I got those same answers.

median locust
#

Good rule of thumb is ABC = Always Be Casting. If your GCD isn't rolling, you might be doing something wrong

faint flare
#

Weaving is a basic game mechanic you should learb

craggy scarab
#

little question, i just started playing a few days ago. are there like little dungeons you can do with like a few people? (like a smaller raid and much easier)

faint flare
#

!faq weaving

zinc orbitBOT
#
Quick guide to weaving/clipping

Click the image, then 'Open original'

sturdy mason
#

Vinyl I don't know if I'd call it basic. IMHO it's an advanced technique, and really hard to do on some jobs

median locust
#

If your GCD stops to use an oGCD, then that Glare is delayed a certain amount of time. If you do that multiple times in a fight, then you might get to cast less Glares in the fight that you would have by weaving the oGCD properly

#

Meaning your DPS is lower

#

So if you're going to use an oGCD in between two glares when neither are instant cast, be aware of the consequences

#

On WHM you don't have much weaving space so it might be unavoidable at times but yeah

#

something to keep in mind

#

Should always keep weaving in mind imo, it's something that can be applied and practiced in every level of content

solemn delta
#

I notice the Calamity Salvager only sells certain class stuff? Don't see GNB or DRK or anything in there

median locust
#

Do you have DRK levelled with the job quests done?

#

If not, it won't show

solemn delta
#

It's 60 atm so 50 stuff should be in there no?

vagrant copper
#

It also depends on what stuff you mean. GNB and DRK are later expansions so some ARR stuff just doesn't exist for them

faint flare
#

No

median locust
#

GNB AF4 is from ||Gernoldt|| in the last ShB area

faint flare
#

50 is generic tank gear

median locust
#

There's no 50 stuff for DRK

#

It was introduced with Heavensward which had a level cap of 60

#

so it only has 60, 70 and 80 sets

#

GNB only has an 80 set because it came out in Shadowbringers

solemn delta
#

I see

median locust
#

Also, 60 sets won't be at the calamity salvager. You need to buy them with Centurio Seals at the Forgotten Knight in Ishgard

solemn delta
#

Yeah I noticed there's 50 and 70 here

#

Except starting stuff for DNC and GNB

#

Well atm I just wanna get my PLD looking like a PLD and MNK sorted so all good lol

nova umbra
#

At 1:48 in this video, why did he use afflatus rapture to weave thin air when everyone was full health? Is it just to prep for afflatus misery and that's it?

mossy tartan
#

Is it possible to reach level 60-80 in a single day with a healer job? By spamming dungeons

nova umbra
#

Is it okay to just use lily stacks when you don't need healing just to weave for movement?

faint flare
#

If you play long enough probably

rich flume
#

Hey guys, I just got to level 80 on my first class and haven't finished shadowbringers yet. Should I buy the highest Ilevel items in the marketboard?

median locust
#

You can use lillies to move, yes. Using lilies does have DPS attached to them since they give you access to Afflatus Misery. It comes out weaker than a Glare though since the 900 potency is divided between 4 GCDs.

nova umbra
#

You can do the relic weapon quest and level 80 job quest to get your first level 80 gear

rich flume
#

alright, thanks

median locust
#

But it's still DPS so it's better than moving and not casting anything at all

#

And for Thin Air it might be just to save MP

#

If you're not gonna blow anything big soon I'm pretty sure it would be better to use it than to sit on it and lose a use of it

#

So basically, you don't wanna blow Lily stacks solely for afflatus misery

#

Look at it closer now.... they definitely used Afflatus Rapture for movement

#

100%

rich bay
#

@rich flume, Zydico is incorrect.

The relic requires the base ShB story to be complete (and the SB alliance raids), but the free i430 gear is avalible as soon you get your first L80 MSQ.

The L80 job quests don't give any gear, only materia and a title.

median locust
#

You CAN buy iLv480 gear on the MB, it's not that expensive, but if you wanna save money, it's fine not to buy it

dapper shadow
#

^ If you dont plan to do savage raids immediately within 3 days, i think its better to get a mixture of available tome gear and relic gear + relic weapon.

mossy tartan

Does fey illumination increase incoming healing to the affected target(s), or said target(s) outgoing healing?

dapper shadow
#

increase ur GCD healing power

mossy tartan
#

Does it also increase the other healerโ€™s healing power?

dapper shadow
#

yes

#

if they get the buff

mossy tartan
#

Okay, thank you

rich bay
#

Yes, my co-healer in savage uses it when there is big healing needed.
I often solo heal trough the E7S adds burst damage with it.

proven roost
#

Hi! I need help woth something from someone who knows this game alot

rich bay
#

Ask your questions here @proven roost , most try to answer them if they know it.

proven roost
#

alirght thx a lot!

#

so i justed upgraded from ps4 to pc! but i made a mistake and i started a new service account. im currently waiting my ticket to get resolve and all. My question. Can i still play in the wrong service account just to try the pc version?

#

(btw i sleak frecn so sorry for my english if its bad XD)

#

speak*

stable hinge
#

do you still get the clusters from leveling roulette if you aren't adventurer in need

faint flare
#

No

#

Its a adventure in need reward when 70+

stable hinge
#

I see

#

Thanks

willow marlin
#

@proven roost I mean you can still play on the wrong service account but that progress will be negated when the ticket is resolved.

maiden tulip
#

are there any people keeping timers on foxy lady spawn for each server?

#

or do i just go do the chain and hope she isnt down?

proven roost
#

yeah sorry. what really want to know is will it look bad if i play on it. can it cancel my ticket if they see me play on it

vagrant copper
#

Most hunt trackers will also track special fates. I don't know if that counts as one though

faint flare
#

It does

willow marlin
#

I don't think so.

faint flare
#

Foxy lady is a super fate, long CD, doesn't show on map and has a fate chain

willow marlin
#

They'll just cancel that service account either way

proven roost
#

alright thx a lot Rainman! the final fantasy XIV community is very welcoming! Im having a blast with my first MMO!

willow marlin

@nova umbra its a speed kill

#

e5s can literally be solo healed by an astro

#

/ any healer

#

the healing in that fight is not hard @ ilvl 500

#

he literally pops lily just for the misery, weave + movement

maiden tulip
#

big fox is not on the huint tracker sites

#

sadly

#

well did the chain again lets hope she spawns

median locust
#

Hunt discords call it out when she spawns at least

upper mortar
#

Weird question but. My BTN(69) is now higher level than my main combat class(63). Whats the best way to get level 70 gathering gear when im only in early stormblood?

median locust
#

There's a vendor in Kugane that sells lv70 gathering gear

#

So I guess get there first

#

Oh, it's also in Rhalgr's my bad

upper mortar

Cool ty

gritty oracle
#

@upper mortar I recommend getting custom deliveries unlocked and stockpiling scrips. When you finish SB, you unlock the Rhalg scrip vendor, who sells you landking gear which is frankly amazing.

median locust
#

And Landking will last you until 80 unlike the vendor gear I mentionned

rich bay
#

@maiden tulip On the light datacentre , there are several cross-world linkshells that reports those World Boss fates cross server.

Normally i am one of the main spawners or reporters on the Light DC for Special and World Boss fates , i am a member of 2 hunt CWLS

leaden ginkgo
#

And is it tradable or not?

median locust
#

Can buy it on Mogstation, it's Aymeric's Attire

rich bay
#

@leaden ginkgo

You can buy the set from Mog Station.

#

Male only btw.

median locust
#

But the Adamantite Set of Fending is somewhat similar

leaden ginkgo
#

What about the ishgard set from Dusk Vigil?

median locust
#

That one too

#

It's somewhat similar but not the same as what Aymeric wears

leaden ginkgo
#

Color difference ?

median locust
#

Model too

slate oak
#

at what level or point of the game should i start looking at what gear i am wearing? like when do i go out of my way to look for gear ?

rich bay
#

@maiden tulip

On which DC is your character?
Maybe i know if the Fox is on CD.

median locust
#

This is the 58 crafted set

leaden ginkgo
#

at what level or point of the game should i start looking at what gear i am wearing? like when do i go out of my way to look for gear ?
@slate oak Probably at start of HW you would want to make sure you have gear to keep you up and going

median locust
#

dyeable

leaden ginkgo
#

Whats the set name?

slate oak
#

HW? i am new so i dunno what that means ๐Ÿ˜

median locust
#

said it earlier, Adamantite Set of Fending

leaden ginkgo
#

Heavensward, the first expansion

#

Ah thanks Fissie

slate oak
#

yes figured but what level is that? or will it tell me when i enter the HW phase?

median locust
#

The set that drops from Dusk Vigil uses the same model but isn't dyeable

little swift
#

you see in giant block text on screen HEAVENSWARD

elder elk
#

which data center on the Aether is the best for guilds

#

also hi

leaden ginkgo
#

Of Adamantite or the one from mogstation?

slate oak
#

ah kk thank you,so at level 30 i should really worry about gear

#

gotcha,thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

Not 30, HW starts from 50

median locust
leaden ginkgo
#

Heavensward 50-60, Stormblood 60-70, Shadowbringers 70-80

slate oak
#

no i mean i am level 30 lol and yup,will do thanks

median locust
#

as you can see, not really the same

leaden ginkgo
#

Hmmm, how much is it from mogstation?

mental garnet
#

i've been in queue for zurvan normal for about 25 minutes as a tank, should i be using PF instead? i thought normals were fine to queue for

median locust
#

Like 18 USD, I can check to make sure

#

15 USD*

#

And yeah, it's male only.

leaden ginkgo
#

Bruh thats stoopid

raw solstice
#

yeah you'd catch people in trials roulette for zuvan normal, so DF is usually fine for that. However, you're queueing in the middle of the day, when people aren't really playing much, so that's why you're getting a long queue time @mental garnet

leaden ginkgo
#

I should just stay using my maid glamour

mental garnet
#

ok, got it

#

i'll try again in the evening

elder elk
#

uh

vivid wolf
#

Are there main scenarios in roulette that are longer than praetorium?

median locust
#

No

#

It only has Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium

slate oak
#

how do you summon a partner?

agile laurel
#

a chocobo, or as an arcanist?

median locust
#

partner?

vivid wolf
#

Only those 2?

median locust
#

what kind of partner

vivid wolf
#

What a bummer

median locust
#

Yes, only those 2

#

Never gets anything else

slate oak
#

or a pet? i dnt remember properly...i used something from my inventory

median locust
#

A minion?

slate oak
#

and it said i could have a partner/pet with me now

vivid wolf
#

Companion

faint flare
#

A minon?

#

Open the minon guide

agile laurel
#

Minions don't do anything, and are from the Minion Guide in the character menu

vivid wolf
#

The chocobo?

slate oak
#

i dunno,sorry new and i dnt remember as i was going through my inventory ๐Ÿ˜

#

how do i open the menion guide? :S

vivid wolf
#

You need to use something something greens

#

I think

median locust
#

It's under the Character menu iirc

faint flare
#

Character button > minion guide

slate oak
faint flare
#

That yes

median locust
#

Right click, Summon

#

or drag it to a bar if you want

slate oak
#

will it stay with me for a specific period of time ro what?

median locust
#

Stays until you unsummon it

faint flare
#

Permanent

gloomy ice
#

Wonโ€™t be in dungeons though

faint flare
#

It doesn't do anything

median locust
#

Won't be in dungeons or instances

slate oak
#

oh lol kk,thank you for the help!

median locust
#

But yeah it just follows you

gloomy ice
#

Other than that yeah it follows you around until you turn it off

median locust
#

there's TONS of those to collect

slate oak
#

gotcha

#

thank you,much appreciated

tawdry plinth
#

is the bard good support atm ?

#

like meta

slate oak
#

ok so another question,can i see how much damage i have done in a dungeon or something like that?

#

to actually know that i am doing something in the dungeon ๐Ÿ˜

open coral
#

Bard has a good amount of support baked into it, yes @tawdry plinth

#

@slate oak If you're on PC, you can download and set up the parser ACT

#

Just don't use it to harass people about their numbers being bad.

slate oak
#

of course,i would never do that,got too much self doubt for that ๐Ÿ™‚

does every1 uses that parser act?

median locust
#

Not everyone but a lot of people do

Mostly raiders

tawdry plinth

what class is in your opinion the smoothest

slate oak
#

i just want to see my improvements,if any

open coral
#

It's the only parser available for FFXIV. We warn about using it to harass other people because ACT is technically against the game's ToU, and if you get reported for using it, you can be banned.

median locust

Smooth in what way?

tawdry plinth
#

skill rotations and gameplay

sleek tulip
#

Are any of the servers preferred with the XP bonus? I see some are listed as preferred on the server status page but none of them have a Star on World Select.

slate oak
#

ah shit,i am not taking any chances like that on my first MMO lol

median locust
#

I know but I don't get what you mean by smooth lol

slate oak
#

thanks for the info!

vagrant copper
#

Smooth like it impresses the ladies? Smooth as in....

slate oak
#

smooth criminal?

#

ninja?

vagrant copper
#

Are you asking for easy / comfortable classes?

craggy scarab
#

what does unaspected damage mean?

tawdry plinth
#

hahaha

median locust
#

Damage without an element

open coral
#

@craggy scarab It just means it has no element

faint flare
#

Aka its magic

craggy scarab
#

oh okay, thanks ๐Ÿ˜„

open coral
#

Not that elements on attacks are actually relevant

#

That's sort of an artifact classification

tawdry plinth
#

what are u guys maining ?

open coral
#

I main WHM

faint flare
#

Smn

open coral
#

People main whatever they like the best, tbh

median locust
#

Black Mage because high skill ceiling and it's comfy, but it can be frustrating and/or boring while levelling

vagrant copper
#

If you ask a question like that on a server with this many people, you're going to get a lot of answers

median locust
#

There's a lot of different classes because people prefer different things so yeah

tawdry plinth
#

true im asking a lot of questions i just came back to the game

#

whats the recommended way to level new class ?

median locust
#

I hate monk but for some people it's their favorite

open coral
#

Do MSQ for a new character, or spam highest level leveling dungeons for alt jobs.

willow marlin
#

Doing potd works as well

#

And HoH

median locust
#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
median locust
#

But yes, if this is your first job

#

MSQ >>>>>> Everything else

#

besides job quests

tawdry plinth
#

what does potd and hoh stand for xD

willow marlin
#

Palace of the dead

#

And heaven on high

#

Instances that give you a lot of exp

#

Potd is up to level 60

#

And HoH is 61+

tawdry plinth
#

ahh nice ty

median locust
#

61-70, it stops scaling after that and it's bad exp

open coral
#

It's not that PotD/HoH give a lot of xp - they don't give more than a leveling dungeon for 10 floors - it's that the queue times are better for dps than leveling dungeons are.

mossy tartan
#

Where can I find level 40-45 gear vendors?

median locust
#

Below 50 it's always Uldah/Gridania/Limsa marketplace NPCs

open coral
#

If you're a tank or healer, you'll get better xp for clearing your highest level leveling dungeon (~15m per run) than you will for clearing 10 floors of PotD or HoH (variable time - avg. 20m per run)

mossy tartan
#

Marketplace only has up to 35

open coral
#

I think there's a gear vendor in Mor Dohna that should have higher level gear. Not 100% sure though because I never buy white gear.

median locust
#

Old Gridania

mossy tartan
#

Thank you

median locust
frank chasm
#

Does the sir Aymeric marker bot thing actually work?

#

I canโ€™t find the items for the price it databanks

sinful monolith
#

almost level 35 on the free trial, what would be the cheapest option to begin playing?

vagrant copper
#

It works but almost no one runs the bot that supplies the prices so a lot of things are horribly out of date

median locust
#

It uses crowdsourced information from Universalis AFAIK

frank chasm
#

Oh

#

So itโ€™s useless

median locust
#

Meaning unless someone who runs an extension that shares prices to universalis looks at it, then the prices will stay outdated

open coral
#

@sinful monolith If you don't plan to make more than one character, the basic sub will be your best. If you want more characters, then the 6-month Standard sub is better.

little swift
#

also we have no affiliation with the ser aymeric bot here on this discord, we're not super familiar with how it works

sinful monolith
#

can i just buy the latest shadow bringers thing and be alright?or do i need to buy the uh original game first? @vestal quail

open coral
#

You'll need to purchase the base game + the Shadowbringers expansion to access all content.

little swift
#

you need both the base game and shadowbringers

open coral
#

This can be done by purchasing the "Complete Edition"

sinful monolith
#

ah alright, thank you~

tidal yarrow
#

what do I have to type in the macro to do x emote with x text message?

median locust
#

/playdead motion
/emote your text here

tidal yarrow
#

and I guess I have to disable chat log

vagrant copper
#

?

median locust
#

Nope

tidal yarrow
#

so otherwise it will show the normal emote message plus that one?

median locust
#

"motion" after an emote makes it not post anything in chat

tidal yarrow
#

oh okay

#

lemme try

dense pier
#

Do I get the final Lakeland quest aether current much, much later in the MSQ?

faint flare
#

Its in the crystarium

#

At the pendants

dense pier
#

Ah let me see

faint flare
#

If you're missing that one

dense pier
#

I thought I got one in there, but I'll check

#

I just finished the... uh ||attack mission||

#

so I'm wondering why I don't have all the unlocks

#

my duty-finder just popped up though so I'll check it afterwards

/playdead motion
/emote your text here
but how can I make it that it says "do something" to -> the person I'm locked into?

faint flare
#

You add <t>

#

To wherever you want their name to appear

#

So like

/Emote slaps <t> across the facd

tidal yarrow
#

oh awesome

faint flare
#

Will show

"your name slaps Target name across the face"

tidal yarrow
#

I will use that for slap emote

#

oh god it's cute

vestal pelican
#

Howโ€™s pvp right now? I played pve super casually back in HW but never heard anyone talk about pvp.

vagrant copper
#

Same as it ever was I'd imagine. A sideshow at most unless you're really gung-ho about it.

wintry compass
#

is there a marketboard in uldah

faint flare
#

Yes

#

At sapphire avenue exchange

wintry compass
#

what does the symbol look like

faint flare
#

It...looks like the market...or somewhat like a note

#

Its by the summoning bells

slate oak
#

so how long before i get a mount? or i just missed it or something,i thought it was around level 20

faint flare
#

Once you join a grand company you cqn get the quest for it

#

My little chocobo

#

At your grand company

wintry compass
#

should be by you company

#

its blue quest

slate oak
#

yuss found it

#

after i get that i can like get other mounts and stuff?

faint flare
#

Yes

wintry compass
#

nice you should have the stamps already just go to the keeper

faint flare
#

Once you do that quest, you can use any other mount you obtained

median locust
#

There's a mount you can get for having conjurer at lv30, otherwise the main story gives you a mount at lv50

wintry compass
#

i watched a video of how some mounts you can buy from market board

median locust
#

and yeah there's a giraffe mount you can get for pretty cheap on the MB

#

Dhalmel Whistle is what you're looking for

wintry compass
#

but i dont have member rip

#

i wanted to lvl cap my glad class and then get it but im lvl 24

#

my glad class is also lvl 24 does this mean i get another class my lvl will drop down again to lvl 1?

#

character lvl i mean ^

median locust
#

Yeah jobs don't share levels

#

the only 2 that share a level are Summoner and Scholar, because they share the base class Arcanist

wintry compass
#

does this include msq? will it be reset ?

median locust
#

Nope

#

You do MSQ once per character

wintry compass
#

so just the class lvl ? ill have to do the guild quests for that class to lvl it up ?

slate oak
median locust
#

Also, any job under the level of your highest level job will get +100% exp to help you level it up

#

(+50% over lv70)

wintry compass
#

ohhh

#

nice

#

@slate oak

#

go to the company there a npc that sells it

#

its 200

median locust
#

If you don't have enough just do the grand company hunting log and/or clear some fates

#

200 isn't hard to get

slate oak
#

i have 500

#

but i dnt see where to get it or what ๐Ÿ˜

wintry compass
#

yee i had guessed

#

give me a second

slate oak
#

sorry new to all this so stupid annoying questions ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

wintry compass
#

no worries

median locust
#

you need to go to your grand company's counter

wintry compass
#

its in material

faint flare
#

Buy it from the personal Flame quartermaster

slate oak
#

nvm got it

#

thank you so much!

wintry compass
#

have fun

slate oak
#

do mounts give you anything other than bragging rights?

little swift
#

They move faster than your feet

slate oak
#

of course that lol

median locust
#

Some have actions they can do, but they're always only cosmetic

little swift
#

And some have some unique cosmetic actions

slate oak
#

all have the same speed?

little swift
#

Its all for fun

median locust
#

Yes

little swift
#

Yup

slate oak
#

kk gotcha

little swift
#

Speed is based on your map speed rank on any given map

slate oak
#

no flying mounts,right?

faint flare
#

All fly

little swift
#

All mounts fly

slate oak
#

wut

median locust
#

The one and only exception is Cloud's Bike from Mogstation. It starts at a higher speed than other mounts, but you unlock said speed levels normally during the main story anyway

slate oak
#

i thought there were no flying mounts in ff14 ๐Ÿ˜

median locust
#

You can only fly in Heavensward area onwards at the moment

faint flare
#

Everything flies

median locust
#

Next patch will make it possible to fly in areas below lv50, but only if you beat the base game story

#

But yes, all mounts can fly, no exceptions

slate oak
#

nice,looking forward to it ^^

median locust
#

How does a bear fly? Who knows

#

it just does

faint flare
#

AEtHeR

slate oak
#

will i have to do special quests in order to learn some skills? by skills i mean attacks and stuff? other than the ones given to us by our job masters

#

i hope that made sense...

median locust
#

Yes

#

Do them always

#

Highest priority

faint flare
#

Only job quests give skills

#

Blue quests unlocks other functions

dapper shadow
#

there are no attack skills that are learnt apart from job quests

little swift
#

You do learn "actions such as treasuremaps and glamour" but no attack actions

dapper shadow
#

so just do job quests will unlock all your attack skills and traits

median locust
#

oh I misread the question mb

timid falcon
#

is there a free company on famfrit for reddit i can join?

slate oak
#

kk gotcha,thank you

little swift
wintry compass
#

any way to keep mobs from becoming hostile

little swift
#

Or r/ffxivrecruitment

#

Avoid their line of sight

median locust
#

^

#

and level up

wintry compass
#

what if the start attacking

little swift
#

Be 11 levels above the mob

median locust
#

If you're high enough, mobs stop aggroing you

dapper shadow
#

run

median locust
#

run or kill

#

rules of nature

#

overworld mobs generally don't pose a huge threat anyway

slate oak
#

so HW is the first expansion after the base game?

median locust
#

Yes

#

A Realm Reborn -> Heavensward -> Stormblood -> Shadowbringers

#

commonly referred to as ARR, HW, SB and ShB

slate oak
#

kk cool,and each of them will give me access to new areas?

remote lintel
#

yes

median locust
#

Yep

slate oak
#

nice nice,thanks

median locust
#

areas, dungeons, main story quests, etc

#

And it's 100% linear so you have to finish ARR to start HW

little swift
#

6 areas per expansion

median locust
#

finish HW to start SB, etc

turbid dragon
#

Hi. I have a question related to glamour/gear.

remote lintel
#

just ask

turbid dragon
#

At some point, there was a quest that gave me three of options to choose from different items. I can't remember them all, but they were all pretty good but I settled for this hat.

#

I noticed that this hat and the other two items didn't have a "shop selling price" though - so where can you get them?

remote lintel
#

city vendors

median locust
#

What's the name for it

#

Might help

little swift
#

what is theitem?

dapper shadow
#

what is it called? you can find same model stuff from garland tools

remote lintel
#

the shop selling price is what it sells for when you sell it to a vendor

turbid dragon
#

I don't particularly remember but I know this hat is claled Altered Felt Hat

remote lintel
#

not the other way around

little swift
#

thats a crafted item

turbid dragon
little swift
#

those can be found on the marketboard

median locust
#

Shop Selling Price is what vendors sell it for

dapper shadow
median locust
#

None means no vendor sells it

turbid dragon
little swift
#

yes

turbid dragon
#

I just want to make sure that I haven't screwed myself out of getting two pieces of unique gear later on.

#

Okay, thanks. ๐Ÿ˜Š

remote lintel
#

you can't really

faint flare
#

The msq gives you items you can get elsewhere

little swift
faint flare
#

There's nothing really unique you can miss

little swift
#

those items are craftable

turbid dragon
#

Thats right

median locust
#

There are no pieces of gear from quests that aren't reobtainable

turbid dragon
#

I liked the bandana and the shirt I got from the quest before it.

dapper shadow
turbid dragon
#

Nice ๐Ÿ˜„ Tyvm.

dapper shadow
#

craftable

lime geode
#

I'd like to try tank - I'm at lvl 70 on SCH - can I start with DRK or GNB or is it better to start with one of the lvl 1 tanks.

median locust
#

You can start with DRK/GNB if you want but I'd recommend directly queueing for low level dungeons to start out

#

You'll need the practice

lime geode
#

Yeah start with lvl 15 and build up

median locust
#

pretty much yeah

lime geode
#

Is one less complex than the other? I like to keep things relatively simple.

#

So sticking with SCH/WHM over AST for example.

median locust
#

At low levels all tanks are simple

lime geode
#

Get agro, don't die?

median locust
#

Yeah, they all have the same base kit like

#

Tank stance, AoE attack, single target combo, cooldowns

simple shore
#

imo, DRK is simpler than GNB in the long run.

median locust
#

Tank stance is the same across all tanks. It's something that makes your attacks get more aggro on the mobs passively, as long as it's on, with no downside.

#

it's basically just, do I want aggro? If yes, turn tank stance on

lime geode
#

Do you ever not want agro?

median locust
#

If you're 2 tanks in an 8-man party

simple shore
#

Only in 8 man content where there's two tanks

median locust
#

or bigger

little swift
#

or alliance raid 24-man stuff

simple shore
#

or 24 man, etc.

median locust
#

And be careful because it turns itself off when you get level synced down

#

this catches a good handful of people off guard lol

#

make sure it's on when you enter the dungeon

lime geode
#

Yeah if there are less buttons to push with DRK I'll probably try that ๐Ÿ˜‰

simple shore
#

GNB has a ludicrous amount of buttons compared to DRK.

median locust
#

Paladin/Gladiator: Iron Will
Warrior/Marauder: Defiance
Dark Knight: Grit
Gunbreaker: Royal Guard

#

these are the tank stances

lime geode
#

Ah good, ludicrous I try to stay away from.

leaden ginkgo
#

Stats for MCH?

median locust
#

I think both of those have a ton of buttons honestly

#

If you want less buttons go Warrior, it doesn't have that many in comparison

lime geode
#

Thought it'd be nice to skip the early lvls

median locust
#

If levelling: Higher item level, substats don't matter
If level cap: Item level > Crit > DH = Det > SkS

#

for MCH

leaden ginkgo
#

Aight thanks

mossy tartan
#

Iโ€™ve seen some players with modern sports shoes, where can I get one?

lavish vortex
#

im trying to complete a book of objectives for a Zodiac Relic, and under the Levequests i have to complete 1 called Necrologos Pale Oblation. But I go to the NPC and it doesnt show... what am i missing?

median locust
#

!iglam Late Allagan Boots of Casting

zinc orbitBOT
median locust
#

These?

#

The healer ones look the same (with a palette change)

#

@lavish vortex Complete one random level from the NPC then it'll cycle to new levequests

#

It doesn't always show all the leves it can have

lavish vortex
#

awesome, thanks!

slate oak
#

so i am assuming the flying will be faster than this running mounts/

#

?

median locust
#

Flying is faster than ground running yes

stray dawn
slate oak
#

kk cool thanks

median locust
#

Any main city around the marketplace

#

wherever that is for that specific city

stray dawn
#

i see, i'll check around main city

molten spruce
#

how do i unlock the dawn throne aetheryte?

stray dawn
#

oh man, I need 40 ventures, is it worth to upgrade retainer's job?

static yacht
#

@molten spruce do msq

median locust
#

Get far enough in MSQ and you'll get taken there @molten spruce

molten spruce
#

ok

barren flax
median locust
#

No, coffers

barren flax
#

oh right ty

median locust
#

You still receive the book if you hadn't cleared for the week, even if all 7 other players had already cleared

barren flax
#

so my raid party no one has cleared except one guy

#

but all he got is the book

#

so we'll still get 2 coffers?

median locust
#

No

faint flare
#

If 1 to 4 people have cleared this week, you get 1

median locust
#

8 hadn't cleared = 2 coffers
4-7 hadn't cleared = 1 coffer
0-3 hadn't cleared = 0 coffer

faint flare
#

Wrong numbers fissie

#

5+ for 0 coffers

median locust
#

derp

faint flare
#

1-4 for 1 coffer

#

0 for 2

barren flax
#

oh wait i thought u meant the weekly reward was referring to the coffers

#

not the books

faint flare
#

They're both weekly

median locust
#

I'm saying the number of people that hadn't cleared

barren flax
#

so i guess that one member

median locust
#

not people that had cleared

barren flax
#

kinda fked over the raid pt ._.?

median locust
#

I think I had it right

#

Yeah, if people had already cleared for the week, you get less coffers

#

If one person already cleared during the week, you automatically get one less coffer

dapper shadow
#

Make sure when you put pf up to include โ€œ2 chestsโ€ next time. Also when you just entered the instance, there will be text popping up saying hour many chests are ellegible

barren flax
#

got it, ty

dapper shadow
#

Yeah, if the number of chests doesnt match the one stated in the pf, you remake/ leave.

barren flax
#

yeah, its fine our irl friend didnt realise about the coffer thing

#

and managed to get a clear

ripe gale
#

is there a keybind to progress through quest/accept the reward ect. I know I can left clickt o spam chat and escape to skip cut scenes

median locust
#

Numpad 0

#

It's the default "confirm" button

ripe gale
#

ty

dapper shadow
#

Very effective for interacting with objects with a lot of ppl around it too. Like event npcs or the retainer bell.

slate oak
#

what is free company?

median locust
#

Free Company = Guilds

slate oak
#

a fance way of saying party/group?

#

oh

#

like clan and stuff?

median locust
#

yes

slate oak
#

kk cool,thanks

tawdry plinth
#

has someone bought the complete edition from mmoga ?

remote lintel
#

sounds sketchy

tawdry plinth
#

mmoga is legit but i think u have to create a new account

median locust
#

There are two typed of PC licenses (other than region locks): Steam and non-Steam

#

If you buy from Steam, you can only use Steam to buy future expansions

little swift
#

mmoga is not a certified retailer and could likely just be a key reseller

#

use at your own risk

median locust
#

If you buy from outside of Steam, you should be able to get a key from any certified retailer and it will work

#

as long as it's not from Steam

little swift
#

afaik they're not

median locust
#

just make sure you have the right region

little swift
#

but they could be for EU region

median locust
#

If you got EU Standard Edition, you need EU Shadowbringers

tawdry plinth
#

ok ty

nova umbra
#

is there any point in having fester and miasma on my hotbar after I unlock tridisaster?

faint flare
#

Yes

median locust
#

Tri-disaster will not always be ready to use when you need to refresh them

nova umbra
#

but trance resets tridisaster cooldown right?

faint flare
#

Yes but that only handles it for 1min 30

#

You're REQUIRED to hardcast dots every 2mins

nova umbra
#

ah I see

faint flare
#

Tri diaster doesn't handle it all

#

Plus you hardcast dots when there 2 targets

#

Like 7 add phase

vestal pelican
#

Yeah I can buy shadowbringers off of amazon and register it to steam

little swift
#

amazon copies of the game aren't steam license namazuthink

#

you can put the game into your steam library

woeful nacelle
#

You think aethersands are worth stacking for whenever the next crafting patch comes

molten spruce
#

what is the bot command for the dragoon controller guide?

ripe gale
molten spruce
#

depends

#

what lvl are you?

remote lintel
#

if you're low level and want exp yes

#

can use them for challenge log

faint flare
#

Those are fates

ripe gale
#

im level 8, started playing for the first time less than an hour ago

molten spruce
#

yes

#

do em

ripe gale

frank chasm
#

Can I play ffxiv on a laptop that only has ARR if my character is in heavenward already on another system?

remote lintel
#

what

#

if you have the dlcs then you have the dlcs

#

it will download them on the other laptop

leaden ginkgo
#

hey just bought the game + the newest dlc? what class would you recommend for a more tank/support inb other games?

frank chasm
#

No

#

I have the dlc on ps4

#

Not on my laptop

#

License wise

strange coral
#

Then you will need to buy them on PC

frank chasm
#

Can I just play in the arr zones?

remote lintel
#

pretty sure it will either put you in ARR or won't let you in

#

assuming you buy it again

frank chasm
#

Yeah, was hoping someone with experience might answer

faint flare
#

If.you log out in a expansion zone you cant log in on devices with just ARR

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo play a tank if you want a tank

faint flare
#

But if you log out in ARR zones, you can play

frank chasm
#

Ok

faint flare
#

Bit you're restricted to arr content

#

And can't get xp

leaden ginkgo
#

what are the tank roles?

frank chasm
#

Cause I wanted to level my crafters on my laptop while Iโ€™m waiting for hours for my friend to show up at our other friends house

leaden ginkgo
#

i meant

#

in the disciples of war thing

remote lintel
#

gladiator or marauder at lvl 1

faint flare
#

Gladiator, marauder, dark knight a nd Gunbreaker

remote lintel
#

cant be dark knight or gunbreaker

frank chasm
#

Iโ€™ll just level the crafters to 50 or something

#

And do PotD

#

Iโ€™m poor or I would just toss some money in it.

#

Like this

#

throws money

#

๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿฝ

#

Than id do a dance

fallow moon
#

Yo, a stupid question from a new player, what are the things that you cannot do without any of the dlcโ€™s, like whatโ€™s โ€œlockedโ€?

strange coral
#

Can't level past 50. Can't unlock any of the jobs introduced in the expansions. Can't access expansion areas. Can't create hrothgar or viera characters (or fantasia to them).

remote lintel
#

or au ra

strange coral
#

Ah, that's right

fallow moon
#

Thank you! Is there still dungeons and raids that me and my friends can do?

remote lintel
#

the ARR dungeons and raids

#

crystal tower raids

strange coral
#

There are old endgame level 50 dungeons and raids still

fallow moon
#

Okok thanks a lot! Really appreciated!!!

strange coral
#

Patch 2.x content is still available up to the end of the 2.55 MSQ

warm blade
#

Uhhh Au Ra is locked behind Heavensward and Viera/Hrothgar are locked behind Shadowbringers

Astrologian, Dark Knight, Machinist, Red Mage, Samurai, Dancer, and Gunbreaker are all locked behind the expacs @fallow moon

agile laurel
#

aura behind stormblood

remote lintel
#

it's HW

agile laurel
#

not that it makes a difference

#

wait

#

Oh yeah

#

hm

fallow moon
#

Thank you! @warm blade

Anyone has experience with account suspension due to phishing? I have contacted Square Enix support and they don't have any updates for 2 weeks.

lean yarrow
#

Is there a site with the story for ffxiv broken down into a synopsis with sections? I'd like to recap the story so far,but I don't want to spoil myself for later. I'm only like level 20 so it feels like nothing important has happened yet, but I'm honestly not sure

obsidian patio
agile laurel
#

you could go to an inn and check the unending journey

lean yarrow
#

Awesome, that should be enough to catch me up. Thank you both!

deft quiver
#

is there any way to put a specific teleport in a hotbar? A macro or something?

#

im always in limsa and i have a free teleport there

faint flare
#

No

open heart
#

Guys, how do you unlock the lvl 70 scrip exchange?

obsidian patio
#

@open heart Go to Rhalgrโ€™s reach and complete the quest โ€œreach long and prosperโ€

open heart
#

Worked, thank you @obsidian patio

remote lintel
#

@deft quiver you can set limsa as your home destination and then use return

celest bison
#

My friend has pc and her game just closes and crashes several times for no reason . She sent me the screenshot to share with u and she wanna know whats wrong with her game crashes. I told her that its prob her pc but eh, what do you think?

crimson wind
#

Is Meisui ever used?

#

Only for downtime i would assume

faint flare
#

Yes it is

#

For whenever you use TCJ so you can eat the suiton for a bhava

little swift
#

For ninja? Use it when you don't need to trick attack

faint flare
#

If you're not using TCJ to set up trick

little swift
#

Its part of your opener to slam more bhavas

remote lintel
#

@celest bison try a different directx?

celest bison
#

Erm idk what directx she has but ill ask her

little swift
#

Its hard to say what is causing it but its likely hardware/driver issue

remote lintel
#

yeah could try also updating graphics card drivers

formal crystal
#

Does it sometimes take a bit for the client to acknowledge that you've re-upped your subscription? It's not letting me log in, but I just paid for a sub.

molten spruce
#

is there a paladin controller guide?

obsidian patio
#

Not that I personally know of, but I can post my set-up in a bit.

strange coral
#

Not seeing one in the main guide like the DRG one had

obsidian patio
hallow bloom
#

why is there a loading screen to go into the rising stones and then another to get into the solar

#

the one into the solar seems beyond pointless

remote lintel
#

because its an instance

wintry chasm
#

^ for whatever reason they needed it to be separate

#

Which I'm not sure why

obsidian patio
#

Probably cutscene purposes

remote lintel
#

if i had to guess it's because the npcs change a lot

slate arrow
#

It's mostly for NPC purposes probably due to how cutscenes worked

hallow bloom
#

isn't the rising stones itself and instance?

#

an instance in an instance

#

(the solar that is)

remote lintel
#

an instance into another instance

slate arrow
#

ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

#

We don't have a look at how the server code works so

#

Your guess is as good as ours

hallow bloom
#

well i'm doing programming at uni should i try and get placement at squenix and ask them then :D?

wintry chasm
#

Yes

formal crystal
#

lul I'm an idiot. Was trying to log into the Steam version of the game when my license is Standard. Two accounts.

molten spruce
#

@molten spruce second picture is my Hold Crossbar
@obsidian patio thxxx bro

quasi spire
#

how can i get to seasong grotto in middle la noscea/

junior yacht
#

it's on your map

wintry chasm
#

There is a slope going in

junior yacht
#

pretty much right in the center of the area

quasi spire
#

yup found it

#

how do i tell what the pins on the map are?

agile laurel
wintry chasm
#

They have names by the pins

agile laurel
#

zoom in, and you see

junior yacht
#

The pins just indicate prominent landmarks

quasi spire
#

alright i see them

#

thanks, i feel dumb not noticing those

wintry chasm
#

Also you can open your journal and select your quest and you can click from there to see where your objective is

#

Instead of manually finding what area it's in

quasi spire
#

i was doing hunting log to level my arcanist early on

wintry chasm
#

Ohhhh
