faint flare
#

Other name goes by is baby steps

lavish vortex
#

And you always asume the direction you move is towards south west?

faint flare
#

Depends what side the dps are going to to dodge plumes

#

And slightly depending on orbs spawn as some movement is slightly more awkward

lavish vortex
#

Cause as a dps you always start that mechanic at east for when you stack in the little safe spot where con flag starts

#

So the best thing to do is that everybody follow one dps player? So you don’t do to the other side and cut the chains?

faint flare
#

Yes, usually 1 player is designated ad the "anchor" and they decide where to go

#

And you follow them

lavish vortex
#

Good, thanks!

jade saddle
#

I unlocked scrips. The things I can exchange them for - can they not just be crafted anyway?

simple pine
#

how do i make my character auto attack?

faint flare
#

You automatically do it

forest laurel
#

wdym loki

faint flare
#

When in combat

simple pine
#

my character is just chilling in between skills

#

or maybe marauder has slow attack speed?

faint flare
#

Iys automatically done very 3s

#

Gcd animation usually cancels the auto attack animation

limpid lantern
#

Skill speed is global cooldown speed ?

faint flare
#

Thr extra damage hit that isn't tiled is your auto attack hitting

nova umbra
#

what would be the most efficient or best way to get crystal sand for the anima weapon?

twilit arch
#

yellow scrips

#

if you have a crafter leveled

faint flare
#

You can tell you're auto attacking if it has a small circle arrow under its hp bar

twilit arch
#

is by far the easiest way to get crystal sand. if you don't then either vile amberkin (rng though) or thavnariain mist/enchanted ink (though this is going require more poetics farm)

#

can also check the mb, see if the ARR ex items are cheap

forest laurel
#

if you have a crafter or gatherer leveled to 80 then you can do collectables to get the scrips needed
just get garland tools up, set up notifications for the items you wanna gather and bam you're ready

nova umbra
#

ok thanks, looks like yellow scrips it is

strong saddle
#

For console people here. Any easier way to rotate to your other abilities? I find it hard to

faint flare
#

@limpid lantern yes, speed reduces the global cooldown by 0.01s per Skill speed tier

forest laurel
#

yeah you only need yellow scrips

faint flare
#

Usw the extended and wxhb hotbar

#

You havr access to 3 hotbars without hotbar swapping

jade saddle
#

MWD, you can drag your gear list to your bar

limpid lantern
#

@faint flare +2 skill speed is +2 tiers also or do you need multiple points for a tier ?

faint flare
#

Multiple points

#

Per tier

#

The number of points needed for a new tier changes on your level

#

Goes for all stats

limpid lantern
#

Alright, so i am correct to prrsume that a lvl 80 needs way more attribute points for the same increase as a lvl 30 ?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

1k speed at lv30 does way more than at 80

limpid lantern
#

Doesnt that make the progression feel very linear ?

faint flare
#

It is

jade saddle
#

Seenoc I meant looks like I can gather/create, turn in for scrips, which I can exchange for..gear? which I assume I can create anyway?

faint flare
#

Gesr treadmill and vertical progression

limpid lantern
#

Alright, thanks for the answers ^^

nova umbra
#

is the nier raid worth doing every week?

faint flare
#

Copied factory gives you cracked cluster every week

#

For more t8s

forest laurel
#

I mean if you want to you can just
craft the gear
but for gatherers it's a nice alternative

faint flare
#

And stocks you up on coins for next patch

jade saddle
#

ok I see, thanks

nova umbra
#

why do we need coins for next patch? o.o

faint flare
#

You need the copied coin + new coin to buy allegory upgrade items

#

The new coin alone isnt enough

nova umbra
#

sorry... I'm kind of lost... what is the allegory upgrade item and what is it used for? ._.

faint flare
#

Upgrade allegory gear

nova umbra
#

is that for the new bis next patch?

faint flare
#

To 500

#

No

#

Currently you can only upgrade allegory gear by doing savage

#

As the upgrade items are only in savage currently

#

However the 24man allows people who dont do savage to upgrade allegory gear

nova umbra
#

whaaaaaaaaaa

#

wait I should have been doing nier every week oh no

faint flare
#

The coin for copied factory isn't weekly locked

#

And is freely farmable

#

If you wish to stock uo

#

The new coin will be weekly locked

nova umbra
#

ah okay, thank you very much 🙂

strong saddle
#

For console tou know the little lock u see on the bottom screen?

#

How do i lock it? And whats it for

faint flare
#

That locks your hotbars so you cant edit them

strong saddle
#

Gotcha

#

Any button for it?

faint flare
#

Not as far as i know, gotta click with the virtual mouse

strong saddle
#

ok

frosty bison
#

Hey I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to get back into my squenix account? Literally been trying to figure this out for days. Haven’t played in years and it’s stuck on my old account I dunno the password or email to... Been googling and nothing helpful tbh.

strong saddle
#

thx

#

wait u forgot your email?

obtuse jacinth
#

How did you purchase it?

#

If you have the game key they might be able to help.

frosty bison
#

Psn/ps4

#

Literally have not played ff14 for years

#

Bought the complete edition because it’s on sale

#

Already emailed squenix but no answer yet of course. Can’t find this live chat and don’t think I can call. So yay I wasted 30 dollars.

strong saddle
#

Least it wasnt 60 bucks ngl

#

30 aint that bad

And it’s the weekend

sullen anchor
#

So I want to play with my friend on a different home world server. And I'm trying mogstation but I can't transfer to any world?

faint flare
#

Just aoeing is fine provided you have tank stance on

rose ocean
#

is there any discord for clan recruiting?

faint flare
#

Recruitment channels down below

leaden ginkgo
#

Weekly reset = ?Tuesdauy?

faint flare
#

Yes

rose ocean
#

do I need some kind of a role to be able to see them ?

faint flare
#

Yes, your data centre role

rose ocean
#

thank you

sullen anchor
#

Is it normal I can't transfer to any other home world at this point?

#

This appears for every world

faint flare
#

Are you world visiting currently

sullen anchor
#

I don't think so? I've only just started yesterday

faint flare
#

Oh thats why

#

You cany transfer immediately

strong pelican
#

Is Lich a server with alot of active players?

faint flare
#

You gotta wait a few days before new characters can be transferred

sullen anchor
#

Idk it's just the one I used as an example

#

Oh okay, thanks

unborn fox
#

so whats the stat priority for ninjas?

faint flare
#

Main stat (dexterity) > crit > dh > det

unborn fox
#

dh?

faint flare
#

Direct hit

unborn fox
#

ah i see, thanks

proven bay
#

What is the pet hotbar intended for?

faint flare
#

If you REALLLLLLLLLLY wanna put your pet on Steady

#

Otherwise its kinda junk

#

Cause yoy can just put place/sic etc in your hotbar

proven bay
#

Can you use the pet hotbar as a regular hotbar?

twilit arch
#

no

faint flare
#

No

#

You cant edit it

proven bay
#

What's the point of it then brug

faint flare
#

Well none currently cause you can put the stuff on it onto your bars

#

🤷‍♂️

twilit arch
#

it has more use before shb

#

when the pet skills weren't tied to egi assaults

proven bay
#

Oh, I see

tawny chasm
#

Hi, i'm new where should I go chaos or light?

faint flare
#

Either

#

There's barely any difference

proven bay
#

Also, what are the target focus bars and progress bars? I don't understand what that's intended for either

faint flare
#

Progress is the cast bar

tawny chasm
#

I should tell where i'm going to my friends tho right?

twilit arch
#

focus target is like another mini target bar

faint flare
#

Focus target bar is where your focus target appears

proven bay
#

Oh

twilit arch
#

most people either focus target the boss

#

or the main tank

faint flare
#

Yes mirrory

tawny chasm
#

thanks

faint flare
#

If you have friends, go where they are

proven bay
#

Choose one of the preferred servers btw @tawny chasm Idk if the ones you mentioned are preferred servers, but they give double xp until level 70

tawny chasm
#

I cannot change race later right? Some are unselectable

faint flare
#

You can

#

You need a fantasia to race change

#

You get 1 free after completing base ARR (ultimate weapon)

#

Others you'll have to pay money for

tawny chasm
#

good enough

#

I heard they extended f2p experience and wanted to play with friends

faint flare
#

It will be extended in August

tawny chasm
#

It's fine

wet cradle
#

I'm trying to build a ress macro that uses swiftcast + raise... do I have to set a delay in that macro or how does that work?

faint flare
#

You will need a wait

faint meadow
#

You have to put a wait command between swift and raise

leaden ginkgo
#

If you go to different weddings, do you get different gifts?

wet cradle
#

and how long does it have to be?

faint flare
#

At least wait.1

#

The minimum you can do

faint meadow
#

But honestly you can probably do it faster than the Macro

wet cradle
#

thanks!!!

simple shore
#

Wouldnt it be more effective to just put swiftcast and raise without the wait and mash it?

faint meadow
#

With muscle memory

faint flare
#

And it would

wet cradle
#

I'm doing the macro to inform the other healer which person I'm ressing

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes it is more efficient

faint flare
#

You can just have the text as its own maceo

#

And press it before hand

#

So you dony slow yourself dowb

wet cradle
#

so I would need to have 3 different buttons for a ress?

leaden ginkgo
#

In my case my macro for raising is one without aim so i just press it and it goes thru the list

faint flare
#

If you want to be efficient

wet cradle
#

wut? that's insane

leaden ginkgo
#

On my smn i just press a button and someone get a raise without me selecting no one

wet cradle
#

lol do you mind sharing the macro?

leaden ginkgo
#

Let me get a pic

#

Wait

wet cradle
#

also yeah I want to be efficient @faint flare

faint flare
#

Then different buttons

clever cave
#

Thats not good...

leaden ginkgo
simple shore
#

That sounds REALLY bad

leaden ginkgo
#

I mean is not the fastest way but is the easier for sure

simple shore
#

Yeah fuck that macro lol

faint flare
#

Any skills on macros will slow you massively

leaden ginkgo
#

It helped me while learning smn

#

Now i just swiftcast raise, but he asked for a macro

faint flare
#

If you want to be efficient the text would be its own thing

#

And you manually swift raise

leaden ginkgo
#

You dont have to be so perfect about gameplay. .5 seconds is not that much

#

Casual gaming exist too

clever cave
#

Its not really about that, you should choose who youre ressing is all, thats better practice

simple shore
#

Okay thats fine but your macro doesnt aim at all

#

You're literally res'ing whoever

leaden ginkgo
#

If theres only 1 dead people

#

It will get the dead one

simple shore
#

Yeah and what if there's 2

leaden ginkgo
#

Healer first

#

You set it on party order

#

So it will be first healer to be found, then tank

#

And then dos

#

Dps

#

Which one of the 2 healers? Idk, whoever is first

faint meadow
#

Huh, couldn't you set it to target whoever you need it to?

clever cave
#

I guess thats ok for the most part lol

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes, if you select one it will raise the one you select

#

If you dont it will follow party order

patent citrus
#

are f1 - f12 keybind important?

#

thinking of replacing my 2nd hotbar to f1-f12

#

instead of ctrl+1 - 0

clever cave
#

Can ur fingers reach that far?

faint flare
#

By default they targrt party slots

clever cave
#

If no... then no

#

I limit my F keys to 1-5

patent citrus
#

thank you

nova umbra
dusty jungle
#

You can solo a B rank

faint flare
#

All bills are soloable

smoky glade
#

i'm in asia playing in NA datacenters, does connection to tokyo or US servers via VPN matter or can I just choose the tokyo one since it's closer?

zinc atlas
#

Yo, i just hit lvl 50 and my xp bar is now red, do i have to buy expansion now to continue?

faint flare
#

Yes

dusty jungle
#

If you are using a premium VPN, it probably doesn't matter but it depends on what you want to do. If you're interested in PvP or endgame raiding, you will want the best connection available to you which would be the JP servers.

simple shore
#

Well, you have to buy expansion to continue gaining exp

#

Depending on where you are in MSQ, you can probably keep doing that since it gives next to no exp in the "Post-ARR/Pre-Heavensward" section

smoky glade
#

@dusty jungle Using it to optimize for endgame raiding, yes. Thank you!

zinc atlas
#

Im on the Rock the castrum quest now

next jay
#

wow 50% discount is on?

faint flare

As selection for hitting 3mil accounts

next jay
#

btw is the freetrial is gonna be raised?

faint flare
#

Yes

next jay
#

nice

faint flare
#

It was announced in the live letter

next jay
#

guess i need to grind until 19

zinc atlas
#

I got the game on steam but do i have to buy expansion on steam to?

faint flare
#

Yes

zinc atlas
#

yikes

faint flare
#

You're permanently locked to it

wet cradle
#

yup

winter rock
#

How do I add materia in equipment?

faint flare
#

With materia melders

#

They're marked on the nap

#

In cities

winter rock
#

Okay

obsidian wren
simple shore
#

Alternately, you can do it by having a sufficiently levelled crafter

obsidian wren
#

crafter needs to be the same level as the piece of equipment you wanna meld iirc

#

and the crafter needs to be the correct type

simple shore
#

I believe that's wrong

obsidian wren
#

the materia npc are way more convenient

faint flare
#

Jusy 1 crafters

simple shore
#

Crafter type doesnt matter

faint flare
#

Is needed

obsidian wren
#

just one?

#

ah okay

#

good to know

faint flare
#

Thry changed that

#

Like last patch

#

But still needs to be equal level

limpid lantern
#

What does the color of the gear mean ?

#

Some are green some purple

faint flare
#

Basically where its gotteb really

#

Doesn't mean much

limpid lantern
#

So basically more stats is always better

#

Regardless of colour ?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Item level is king

#

There's no proper rarity thing

#

Like other mmos

unborn fox
#

god damn, i have this most annoying bug with arctis 7 headphones that i dont hear the voicelines

#

limpid lantern
#

Ok ty ^^

unborn fox
#

what's the benefit of having the same grand company as your free company?

signal garnet
#

Whats the best way to get dusk leather?

raven sage
#

There's no benefit Vielen. Pick whichever one you want

static swift
#

Does anyone else have this problem where sometimes you summon your mount and it starts at walking speed? Then you have to toggle walk/run in order to get it back to run speed

obsidian wren
#

if you move backwards and press autorun it autowalks

#

might be that

quasi spire
#

How do buffs interact with DoT abilities? Specifically PLD's "Fight or Flight" which increases physical damage by 25%, and "Circle of Scorn"/"Goring Blade"

faint flare
#

They buff both parts

quasi spire
#

Does the buff need to be cast before the ability to take effect?

faint flare
#

Dots snapshot like everything else

#

Yes

#

Before the dot is used

quasi spire
#

Okay

#

Do DoT abilities keep damaging bosses when they go offscreen?

faint flare
#

Varies

#

But mostly no

#

But there are expections because inconsistencies

quasi spire
#

Thanks

#

How can I know if an enemy cast can be Interjected or the enemy Stunned?

faint flare
#

!faq interrupt

zinc orbitBOT
#
Interrupt
faint flare
#

^ for interject

#

Most bosses are stun immune

#

Only some Arr bosses can be stunned outside of mechanics

empty moss
#

quick question

#

how do you craft certain weapon glam that has a like gow or special eff?

faint flare
#

You try it on

empty moss
#

nani?!

faint flare
#

Right click > try on

vernal bramble
#

what's the rDPS? i've heard it from ffxiv content creators

empty moss
#

like for example the weapon that drops from the moogle king trial isnt the same one from the one MB

frigid bough
#

Where can I buy level 20-30 tools? Like hatchets and picks

faint flare
#

!faq fflogsdps

zinc orbitBOT
#
What is the difference between rDPS, pDPS and aDPS on FFLogs?
  • RaidDPS (rDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus the damage from buffs you received plus the damage from buffs you contributed
  • Personal DPS (pDPS) is: Your TotalDPS without being adjusted for buffs.
  • aDPS is: Your TotalDPS minus single target buffs applied to you (devilment, dragon sight, astro cards, etc)
faint flare

@vernal bramble

wanton shadow
#

I died and accidentally hit "wait" how do I revive now lol

vernal bramble
#

Thanks!

faint flare
#

There's a pop up in the corner

wanton shadow
#

oh you're right

faint flare
#

In your notification area

wanton shadow
#

thanks haha, I always miss those boxes

frigid bough
#

Where can I buy level 20-30 tools? Like hatchets and picks

faint flare
#

Market board or city vendors

frigid bough
#

I need specifics I just joined 2 days ago

faint flare
#

@empty moss all crafted primal weapons on market board glow. Dropped ones dont glow

empty moss
#

@faint flare okay how can craft one do you need a recipe or something

faint flare
#

Yes, master receipes

#

That need a material from that figjt

empty moss
#

@frigid bough the MB filters it out for you based on the class u have on equipped

frigid bough
#

Market board

#

Where is the market board

faint flare
#

Main cities

#

They're marked on the map

#

Usually near summoning bells

tidal yarrow
empty moss
#

xD

#

@faint flare where can i get said recipes?

faint flare
#

Various but usually Yellow scrips

#

The ones for Arr primals are in mor dhona

empty moss
#

uhh how to get yellow scrips xD

#

thanks

faint flare
#

And need demi materia trade

#

Lv50+ crafters

#

And collectibles

signal garnet
#

Whats the best way to get dusk leather if anyone knows?

empty moss
#

aaah i c thx

unborn fox
#

are there any voice-lines in class quests?

faint flare
#

Not afaik

tidal yarrow
#

there should be lyse to talk to right there but there is nobody
any help? I can't progress with msq

empty moss
#

@tidal yarrow prolly bug or turned invisble

frigid bough
#

The voice overs seem to not always be active even in msq's

#

But maybe its cause they say your username lol

tidal yarrow
#

I tried restarting game still nothing

faint flare
#

Double check what the story asks you can click it

tidal yarrow
#

it asks to speak with lyse in loch seld

frigid bough
#

Hate to interrupt again but are any farming classes profitable?

faint flare
#

Ahh she's under water

tidal yarrow
#

and here is the "!" so she should be there if it works as every of the previous 500 missions

faint flare
#

You need tondive down

#

In the nearby lake

tidal yarrow
#

Ah..

agile laurel
#

@frigid bough all of them, fisher slightly less so

vale locust
#

Currently grinding all of my crafting classes, I've finished 40-60 at ishgard restoration, is it worth getting 60 scrip gear? or can I achieve 60-70 with the 61 npc gear?

signal garnet
#

Whats the best way to get dusk leather if anyone knows?
@signal garnet
could someone help me out?

agile laurel
#

seems like it's an airships thing

#

so unless you have access to FC airship ventures, you're SOL and will have to buy it from MB

dry tree
#

So what exactly are they revamping monk on? cuz i dont really understand whats happening with grease lightnin? KannaWhat

agile laurel
#

I believe they're planning to do away with building stacks, honestly

#

I could be wrong

#

Mainly cause that's not fun, and stuff like shiva savage cutscene basically kills monk stone dead

#

And making form shift more practical for its intended purpose, and tweaking the cooldown of PB

#

Not all in 5.3, ofc

amber ingot
#

anyone know the error this might occur ? I ve been playing like 7 momths already and it happened once 3 months ago and twice today..

faint flare
#

Rework monk is for 5.4

agile laurel
#

Well, GL rework is

#

PB and form shift adjustment is in 5.3

faint flare
#

For now its just getting PB reduction and Form shift loses a form

#

Whatever that meand

agile laurel
#

If they mean formshift just goes straight to coeurl that'd be fine

#

Because nobody's trying to form shift to opo or raptor, they just want to get into coeurl or refresh GL

gritty oracle
#

I'm having trouble with the level 45 fishing quest. I gotta catch cloud cutters, but according to Gamerescape, both locations for it are cloudfishing. However, cloudfishing is acquired from a further fishing quest. (I'm 55, cloudfishing is 53, and it's grey.) How am I supposed to get the cutters?

twilit arch
#

coerthas central highlands

#

there's a pool that's called the sea of clouds

gritty oracle
#

I tried and can't cast my line there. Gamerescape says it's a cloudfishing spot

twilit arch
#

it shouldn't be

#

considering that cloudfishing wasnt introduced until 3.0

#

and that pool existed in 2.0

gritty oracle
twilit arch
#

are you certain you're at the correct spot for it

agile laurel
#

but witchdrop isn't cloudfishing

#

isnt it?

twilit arch
#

both of those pools are skyfishing

agile laurel
#

ah

gritty oracle
#

I tried in these locations, couldn't cast m line

agile laurel
#

I cherish my ignorance of fishing but I'm sure stuff usually works

twilit arch
#

those are not where the pool is

#

you need to be in the area that's leading to stone vigil

gritty oracle
#

ah

twilit arch
gritty oracle
#

so much for accurate maps

twilit arch
#

need to keep in mind

#

that areas are larger than where the text is located

#

the sea of clouds is basically that entire area

#

The text is often like..."centralized" of where that area is

slim isle
#

hey, i'm trying to go through dragonsong quests and saw that titan hard mode is there -_- does that mean i have to do garuda hard to access it (like a wiki says) or could i go straight from the dragonsong quest?

twilit arch
#

you're required to do titan hard mode for one of the post ARR quests

#

so you should already have titan hard unlocked

#

all you have to do for the hw quest is queue for it (or unsync if you're overleveled)

worldly cape
#

when does "Road to 70" buff disappear? I heard there's 2 things that need to happen for it, to disappear.

slim isle
#

ah the previous titan fight already unlocked it, thanks!

twilit arch
#

road to 70 is removed when your character is either 90 days old or the server stops being preferred, whichever happens last

worldly cape
#

cool, thank you

wet cradle
#

I can't believe how good you can level with your GC squadron... is there a recommended setup?

slim isle
#

have just seen the whorleater hard in patch 2.2, i can remember doing it but not that it was hard mode. glad it's at least out of the way.

strong pelican
#

How often does the new character restriction lift? On lich

remote lintel
#

whenever there's not as many people online

#

so off hours

#

best to try late at night or early morning

strong pelican
#

So once a day?

remote lintel
#

depends on how many people are online

#

if there's too many they lock it

#

if there isn't it's unlocked

faint flare
#

It changes dramatically throughout the day

#

Based on people online

#

Like cerb said

remote lintel
#

is there a fast way to identify ifrit soccer

leaden ginkgo
#

do uptime soccer instead

eager night
#

Looking to play tank, but idk which class of tank to play. Any advice?

agile laurel
#

well, what are you preferences?

#

cause nobody can really suggest anything otherwise

leaden ginkgo
#

whats your asethetic

remote lintel
#

if you're looking to start as a tank you can only do gladiator or marauder

#

so sword and shield or axe

#

clarification, if you're new to the game

#

if you have level 60+ishgard access in any job you can pick whatever

remote lintel
#

they're downloading so I assumed

agile laurel
#

ooh

#

okay

sturdy mason
#

For Scylla, what do you do when you get tethered to an ice orb? Running it into the device thingy doesn't get rid of it

raven sage
#

Just get frozen

#

You cant avoid that

#

The fire orb tethers are supposed to melt it for you

eager night
#

Looking to tank as much damage as possible

#

not worried about dealing damage

remote lintel
#

all tanks can do that just fine

#

they're all equal so just pick what you prefer

#

note that you should still be doing as much damage as you can

faint flare
#

All tanks dps are within a few percent of each other, which is a few hundred dps

#

So pick any

eager night
#

Which tank would be the most simple to use in combat?

#

new to MMO

halcyon glen
#

Just as a disclaimer though - in this game everyone is expected to do damage

#

Tanks and healers too

faint flare
#

Paladin is a static rotation, warrior has basic and straightforward rotation...drk has a simple combo and some mana management and Gunbreaker is the most active

#

So warrior or paladin

eager night
#

Warrior then

#

Thank you for the help

faint flare
#

Warrior has some gauge management but its very simple

halcyon glen
#

I’d honestly pick based on looks

remote lintel
#

^

faint flare
#

Also unga bunga axe go brrr

eager night
#

Looks?

remote lintel
#

pretty much all tanks are simple

crimson wind
#

Paladin has a pretty tight rotation from what I've heard

halcyon glen
#

If you want to hit the bad guys with a big giant axe, go warrior

faint flare
#

Thats what i said

crimson wind
#

If you fuck up you're screwed on PLD

faint flare
#

A static rotation

remote lintel
#

pick a class based on what looks cool

eager night
#

What does the rotation mean?

remote lintel
#

it's the moves that you use in order

#

like a 1 2 3 combo

halcyon glen
#

If you want to have a big ol shield and stand heroicly, take up the sword and board of the Paladin

crimson wind
#

Rotation is the optimal order of attacks and abilities for a job

warped nest
#

It is called an rotation because it loops (in a ideal situation)

eager night
#

Still going warrior if its the easiest rotation

crimson wind
#

well DRK rotation is also fairly easy

eager night
#

Taking baby steps into this MMO world

warped nest
#

Tanks have easier rotation

crimson wind
#

But with more DPS OGCDs

remote lintel
#

this mmo is already designed for people new to MMOs ren

warped nest
#

The whole game is a tutorial

atomic mango
#

is there a way to port hud settings to diff characters

eager night
#

Still waiting for it to download

remote lintel
#

I think you have to go into the files doll

warped nest
#

Even endgame from previous expansions functions like a tutorial now

atomic mango
#

mfw console

remote lintel
#

oof

faint flare
#

Sadly no

#

For console

pastel owl
faint flare
#

Meld the knives

pastel owl
#

i bought the knife

faint flare
#

Throw materia onto it

#

Usually they ask for a specific materia

pastel owl
#

yea were ^^

#

where*?

remote lintel
#

materia melder

faint flare
#

Materia melders

#

Marked on maps

#

In citied

pastel owl
#

oh

#

any specific ones?

faint flare
#

No

#

All npcs are the same

pastel owl
#

if thats it.. thanks 😄

eager night
#

What if I'm going to be doing most of the quest solo
What tank would be best for that?

pastel owl
#

just one? or all 3 slots?

faint flare
#

Any

remote lintel
#

story can be done by any class

#

even healers

eager night
#

Wonderful

#

Thank you

faint flare
#

Gerolt asks you to meld specific materia into the slots

#

So talk to him to refer

#

Or look it up

pastel owl
#

aight, thank you

crimson wind
#

Or you could buy the weapon on the marketboard

#

everyone sells the weapons with the materia already melded in

pastel owl
#

already bought it, nothing was melded into it ^^

#

i will do it just myself np^^

remote lintel
#

@eager night as a side note this might help you, he covers some tank stuff like tank stance

eager night
#

Thank you

#

Looking servers, east coast north america which would be best?

twilit arch
#

doesn't really matter. all 3 of the NA datacenters are in cali

eager night
#

That is lame

remote lintel
#

the crystal data center generally has a smaller raiding population and is known as the RP data center

eager night
#

Figured they space them out evenly

halcyon glen
#

Come to Aether 😛

eager night
#

Aether it is

remote lintel
#

primal best data center

eager night
#

Well now idk

remote lintel
#

I'm jk lol

eager night
#

coin flip between aether and primal

halcyon glen
#

It’s literally that

eager night
#

Aether won

#

Going to Aether

halcyon glen
#

Aether’s population is more centered around its largest world, Gilgamesh

#

However that place is scary

remote lintel
#

sounds like famfrit

#

all the maid cafes and stuff are in Hyperion tho haha

eager night
#

I saw a cat

#

I want to be a cat

#

Can I be a cat and tank?

remote lintel
#

yes

halcyon glen
#

You can be a cat and a tank yes

remote lintel
#

you can be whatever

eager night
#

Best game ever

halcyon glen
#

Race and Tribe matter not at all

eager night
#

Hate MMOs where you got to be a certain race to play a certain style

halcyon glen
#

So do whatever you like!

remote lintel
#

nah this isn't one of those bad mmos

eager night
#

Thanks for all the help

#

Hello :) i am currently standing in front of a dungeon in halatali, can u nanually add/unlock it for the duty funder or does it get unlocked later ?

halcyon glen
#

That’s a quest unlock

#

From iirc a level 20 quest

faint flare
#

Its a side quest unlock

halcyon glen
#

You need to have the quest to gain dungeon access

faint flare
#

Unlock is in vesper bay iirc

halcyon glen
#

It is indeed

limpid lantern
#

Are dungeons always a quest unlock ?

faint flare
#

Blue quest like most unlocks

halcyon glen
#

Yes

faint flare
#

One-way or another, yes

#

Either story or blue side quest

halcyon glen
#

All dungeons are either blue quests or main scenario quests

limpid lantern
#

Alright ^^ thanks again ^^

halcyon glen
#

Please do your MSQ

proven bay
#

@eager night If you want a good tank for doing solo content, Warrior is very good for that. It has so much self recovery that you don't really need a healer most of the time

limpid lantern
#

Currently doing MSQ ^^ but i was not farr off

halcyon glen
#

msq bluequest Do these

#

Hala is bluequest

zenith pasture
#

i tried going to the lavender beds, but its saying the ferry is outta service. is there like a CD or something?

faint flare
#

You need to do a blur quest

#

For it

halcyon glen
#

You need to accept a quest

proven bay
#

^

faint flare
#

Where the heart is

#

In bentmarrow

halcyon glen
#

In Bentbranch

remote lintel
#

I mean paladin doesn't really need a healer either

zenith pasture
#

im on the where heart is quest

halcyon glen
#

One of those is right and it’s probably not me

zenith pasture
#

and its telling me to go there

halcyon glen
#

Oh then you need to go to the right ferry

#

Uh

#

Not in Gridania

zenith pasture
#

central shroud?

eager night
#

@proven bay Thank you for the information ❤️

proven bay
#

@remote lintel I disagree actually. You only get access to a heal at level 58, and it's too expensive to use liberally

#

Paladin is super reliant on a healer before that

#

And even after that you're better off not relying on it

remote lintel
#

I mean paladin is the go to for soloing content esp EXs

oak ice
#

Clemency is ridiculously powerful for sustain when you don't have to worry about enrages

#

But on fights like Zurvan, you spend so much DPS healing that you still need echo

zenith pasture
#

so what does the "select residential ward" do? 1st ward, THe Lavender Beds, 2nd ward, etc.

unborn fox
#

any other classes than paladin that are good at soloing stuff?

twilit arch
#

it just takes you to that housing ward

remote lintel
#

soloing what specifically

zenith pasture
#

like an address

#

?

twilit arch
#

For the quest, it doesn't matter which residential ward you go to, they're all the same essentially

zenith pasture
#

i see ty

oak ice
#

Both Paladin and Warrior have soloed all extreme primals in HW

unborn fox
#

i dunno old content for example. dont know how the late game works yet

remote lintel
#

paladin prob

forest sage
#

a ward is basically an instance of the housing area, people live in certain wards

oak ice
#

Paladin is insofar the only one I know to have soloed O8

remote lintel
#

!action clemency

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Clemency** : lvl 58 PLD (4000 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(1.5 second base cast time)

Restores target's HP.
Cure Potency: 1,200
Additional Effect: Restores to self 50% of HP restored to target if target is a party member

remote lintel
#

because of this kepp

unborn fox
#

i see

strong sphinx
#

in order to attack a target your character needs to be facing it right?

forest sage
#

autoattacks work even without facing nowadays iirc

#

because people with pads were losing autos sometimes

strong sphinx
#

im not sure if i saw it correctly, but was watching a smn vod in E5S and it seemed they were casting Ruin II while running away from Ramuh? (again, i might be wrong here)

forest sage
#

but skills you have to be facing unless it's a pbaoe

twilit arch
#

given that ruin 2 is an instant cast, the spell went off before they turned their character

forest sage
#

if you have the face while casting option on, your char will turn around automatically

#

if you're running at the same time, you can keep running

#

it's buggy if you don't have legacy controls though unless you autorun

strong sphinx
#

so it wont interrupt you while running to dodge aoes?

forest sage
#

na, you can do it manually too

oak ice
#

Not an instant cast ability, no, since the cast is, well, instant

forest sage
#

you can jump, spin your camera, fire, then spin back before you land for example

strong sphinx
#

manually has been what ive been doing so far, turn around cast, cast Ruin II/IV, continue running etc

forest sage
#

yeah it's not as efficient as facing automatically while you're running another direction

strong sphinx
#

gonna test the option on now

quasi spire
#

How do I get back to the House of the Fierce in Yanxia?

twilit arch
#

assuming the aetheryte is still broken, you need to dive into the pool near namai

quasi spire
#

Ah yes, thanks

plain flower
#

Is Leves or Ishgard Restoration faster to level up crafters from 25+?

twilit arch
#

leves give more exp, but the restoration lets you sit in one spot provided ofc you have the materials on you

#

also the restoration is not limited by allowances

gritty oracle
#

So I'm fishing in Bloodshore, Eatern La N, and while fishing my character just waves the rod up and down like a madwoman. (Fishing still works fine, it's just the pose that's weird.) It's not /cpose wither. Anyone know why that happens?

faint flare
#

Random animation

twilit arch
#

no

#

its specific to ocean fishing i think

#

but its not random

worldly cape
#

you don't get samurai set after finishing the last quest for samurai? at level 60

twilit arch
#

samurai doesn't get gear at 60, no

#

both red mage and samurai get their first artifact set at 70

worldly cape
#

ah dang 😦

#

does the lancer get one? my samurai gear is so bad, I was kind of counting on getting a set 😄

twilit arch
#

yes

worldly cape
#

cool, thank you

agile laurel
#

because sam starts at a later level, its artifact sets are only at 70 and 80

#

same applies to red mage, as said

#

gunbreaker and dancer also don't have a 70 set

halcyon glen
#

If you hit 60 and are behind on gear you’re probably behind on MSQ

agile laurel
#

for the same reasons.

halcyon glen
#

Or just, like, need to visit Idylshire

twilit arch
#

Well they don't have 60/70 sets because they didn't exist when 60/70 were max level

agile laurel
#

Smn question - XIVanalysis keeps slamming me for either refreshing dots too early with Tri-D, or missing uses of tri-d by trancing. I feel I... have to do at least one of these? Is one just a lesser evil or am I fucking something up?

clever cave
#

it literally says u are rushing tri d unless its for the opener

faint flare
#

Ignore the dot application if you're rushing

clever cave
#

lol

agile laurel
#

right so it's not a problem, noted

clever cave
#

not a problem no

#

every wasted dot refresh after is important tho

faint flare
#

It happens when you rush

agile laurel
#

okay, i'm trying to get more out of smn but I've reached the point where I feel everything I'm doing is intuitive

faint flare
#

You cut-out dots by 10s per cycle

clever cave
#

your opener is scuffed btw

#

like you used your first tri d after your dwt lol forcing u to hard cast mia bio when that is when u wanted to use ur refresh tri d

frigid bough
#

Need help.

clever cave
#

sup oden

frigid bough
#

I want to craft tools instead of buying them, if that is possible then can someone explain how

clever cave
#

what level craft?

faint flare
#

You need to level the respective crafter to make tools

frigid bough
#

Carpentry is 21

#

I'm confused about the crafting tbh

faint flare
#

You'll need lile Blacksmith, armourer, goldsmith and stuff

#

Occasionally others

#

Crafting and gathering is one big package

clever cave
#

that early you should not buy any tools

#

or craft any

agile laurel
#

yeah I fucked up the opener order

clever cave
#

show us a better analysis then next time, with proper opener and at least a 5 min rotation... i can better help u then

agile laurel
#

i only vaguely remember the ogcd order yeah

#

Frankly I was just confused about the dots situation

#

but yeah

frigid bough
#

Any reason why I shouldn't craft tools

#

Or buy them

clever cave
#

the job quests for crafting give you tools

halcyon glen
#

Job quests hand ya them

faint flare
#

Yes

agile laurel
#

yes

faint flare
#

And fisher

frigid bough
#

But the npc giving the jobs told me specifically that I should upgrade my tools

faint flare
#

In the rush rotation, you hardcast dots after Phoenix

#

Instead of bahamut

agile laurel
#

Gathering, Perception and GP are gatherer attributes

faint flare
#

So you don't clip dots in the opener

agile laurel
#

Craftsmanship, Control and CP are crafter attributes

weak bronze
#

Just reached 70 Summoner what is a decent rotation to follow?

agile laurel
#

haha yeah join the club

little swift
#

You get mainhand and offhand alternatively through completing the class quests @frigid bough

faint flare
#

You can learn the cycles

little swift
#

Not super necessary to buy/craft tools until later

#

Nor is it easy to get hq

frigid bough
#

Gotcha, yep hq stuff seems quite tricky but I'm still veery new so there's that

little swift
#

Nah your stats are just bad early that's it

#

Its not entirely you being new

clever cave
#

@weak bronze no rotation until lvl 74 but generally you build up your bahamut with dwt then summon it lol

faint flare
#

72

clever cave
#

4 ruin stacks?

slate oak
#

guys i am 56 and yet to get the new job quests for my dragoon

clever cave
#

at lvl 72?

frigid bough
#

Okay ty. One more question for now

#

How do I get ingots

slate oak
#

i have only been doing main quests

faint flare
#

Bahamut and phoenix

frigid bough
#

Without buying

faint flare
#

Is the main core part

little swift
#

Make them oden

#

You can check how theyre made through the crafting log

#

At your level most ingots are quite easy to make

frigid bough
#

Thank you

little swift
#

Materials being accessible too

clever cave
#
#

also read rotations after

frigid bough
#

The crafting log only shows me carpentry related stuff so I'm guessing I need to join a diff guild for ingots

faint flare
#

Yes

frigid bough
#

Which one

clever cave
#

which ingot?

frigid bough
#

Iron

sturdy mason
#

Is the Japanese VA for Gaius in 2.0 the VA for Blackbeard in One Piece?!

faint flare
#

Blacksmith and armourer, occasionally goldsmith

clever cave
#

smithing/armor i guess

frigid bough
#

Okay thanks 👍

wanton shadow
#

is unlocking the samurai locked behind MSQ

twilit arch
#

a lot of the JP VAs are well established and well known VAs @sturdy mason

wanton shadow
#

or can I just power level to 50

faint flare
#

No

#

Just 50

wanton shadow
#

so I could potentially do potd until 50

#

then swap to samurai

twilit arch
#

but yes you answer you, Gaius' JP VA is blackbeard

faint flare
#

If you wanted

wanton shadow
#

hmm I guess I'll stick with lancer until 50

#

seeing as how samurai starts at 50

wintry chasm
#

Akio otsuka is very prolific

wanton shadow
#

this way I get msq done

sturdy mason
#

Nice

onyx kiln
#

is it 200 scrips for 1 bucket of the special dyes from the firmament?

twilit arch
#

yes

#

500

#

sorry

onyx kiln
#

okay

twilit arch
#

wait, no 100 for the normal colours

#

500 for the white/black/gold

onyx kiln
#

okay, need the gunmetal black one so 500 it is

rare musk
#

Ok so, i have a problem with my glamour plates

#

For some reason it says i can’t fit my gloves, how is that possible?

twilit arch
#

what level is the gloves you're wearing

faint flare
#

The equipment you're trying to put them on is too low

#

Probably

twilit arch
#

because you can't glamour a higher level item onto a lower level one

rare musk
#

Ah thats it then, thats on me lmao. Cheers

haughty osprey
#

I'm sure this is rather unusual question but.. does anyone here use a switch pro controller to play the game? if so, how do you deal with the difference in button layout vs the xbox? (A being swapped with B and X being swapped with Y)

#

to me it's very confusing, I'm considering using the playstation layout because then at least I know what are my buttons

short sparrow
#

I'm attempting to be a returning player.

#

But I can't seem to log in, even though I'm pretty confident I know my password.

#

I think it might be that I don't know what my ID is. Unless it's just my email address.

#

Any help?

#

Update: I can log in on the website but not to the game client.

#

It won't take my full email as the ID.

faint flare
#

Cause thats not the id

short sparrow
#

Oh foop. Login temporarily restricted.

zenith pasture
#

currently lvl 31, wuts the best way to lvl up?

short sparrow
#

Thank you for confirming that though, I might remember what my ID is now. I will navigate this maze.

faint flare
#

Keep doing story luci

#

The story does your first job

short sparrow
#

Can a returning player who never reached 60 (my shame...) still use the extended free trial?

faint flare
#

If you brought the game, no

short sparrow
#

D'oh.

faint flare
#

Buying the game permanently locks you out

short sparrow
#

Thanks for the answer. I did buy the game, I just hoped I could get free game time until I reach 60.

faint flare
#

Its not "free to play until X", its free to TRY

short sparrow
#

That's fair enough, I accept that I misunderstood.

#

If I re-up my sub, do I need the latest expansion to play at all?

faint flare
#

If you wanna access the new content post whatever you own

short sparrow
#

TBH I'd be happy just accessing content for the part of the game I already own . - at least until I outlevel it.

upper prism
#

hey guys, id like help with something if someone can

short sparrow
#

I bought Heavensward but... um, didn't actually get much into it.

upper prism
#

heavensward is pretty good

#

started it 3 days ago

short sparrow
#

Oh uh, one more.

#

Can I group with people from other regions?

faint flare
#

From people in your data centre

#

Not from other data centres though

short sparrow
#

I know the latency would be bad anyway.

#

Gotchu.

faint flare
#

Everything is basically cross server within your data centre

short sparrow
#

Oh OOF, it says I have no characters?

#

I cry forever. lel

#

Have I really lost my guy?

faint flare
#

Make sure you're on the right data centre

#

And world

#

As servers got split to different data centrea

short sparrow
#

This is on Mog Station that I see it saying that.

#

As I went there to add payment for sub.

eager night
#

Any advice on using the map?

#

like I'm having trouble understanding it when it comes to my quest

faint flare
#

Well unless you got like hacked and deleted, characters dont randomly disappear

short sparrow
#

I remember what server I was on, is each server name on only one data center?

#

Or do I need to remember which datacenter too?

faint flare
#

Across every server they can have that name

short sparrow
#

Is it a bad idea for any reason to say which one?

#

Good evening everyone. Just a quick question, are voice channel audio locked? I can't speak or ear in any of them :p

short sparrow
#

I'm hoping that if I say it you can say "yes, that is definitely a server" to confirm my memory.

limpid lantern
#

Is there a way to actually do msq together ?

#

Mr and my GF are same lvl, same mission and everything but cant do anys tory related quests together

faint flare
#

Well you can look up servers in the server status

#

You can do overworld stuff together

#

For the most part

#

As long ss you're close together you'll get credit for kills

#

But you'll be having to drop party often for.solo instancrs

proven bay
#

You can run through MSQ together, yes @limpid lantern Provided you're on the same quest

limpid lantern
#

But you'll be having to drop party often for.solo instancrs
@faint flare

Yeah this is what we are doing now. Is there no way around this ?

proven bay
#

No, you have to drop for solo instances

#

But you can just go into the party afterwards again

#

Solo instances are just that, solo. You can't do them in a party because the difficulty level is not intended for it

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Its called solo instances

#

For a reason

proven bay
#

They could make party instances too, but that would mean you need to have a party for those, something not everyone has

#

So it's just easier for progression to make them solo

oblique bane
#

fastest way to level a tank from 70 - 80? Beast tribes + dungeon grinding?

proven bay
#

Dungeons definitely

agile laurel
#

agree

proven bay
#

You're a tank, you get insta queues

agile laurel
#

queue times are sub 5min on crystal certainly

oblique bane
#

think they are more optimal then daily roulettes? besides i guess leveling?

proven bay
#

I get instant queues in ARR content, I can only imagine you'd have the same on more current content

oblique bane
#

feel like raid roulettes arent really worth it for me

vocal shell
#

Is E1S puggable

zenith pasture
#

i forgot with where i left off with my main quest line and no clue to where its at (location) is there a way to track them?

tardy storm
#

Trials are generally pretty short.

twilit arch
#

you should definitely be doing your daily roulettes

tardy storm
#

E1S? Yes it should be.

@zenith pasture Scenario guide

short sparrow
#

Are any of the new (later than HW) DPS classes nice and easy to learn if you're a guy like me who has a head full of rocks?

twilit arch
#

though with alliance roulette, tanks tend to lose out on those queues

faint flare
#

Main scenario tracker at the top left @zenith pasture

limpid lantern
#

Thats a bit of a bummer

oblique bane
#

i have been, i normally do, but this is my first tank and i just got it too 70 so i was curious if dungeons only are a better route

zenith pasture
#

ohh lol

#

ty

twilit arch
#

but leveling/alliance/msq roulette are the biggest exp sources. Trial/raid are usually quick ish enough that they're decent time/exp

faint flare
#

Dungeon spam is best

#

You never do roulettes more than once a day

#

Cause without the bonus its not worth it

tardy storm
#

Fae beast tribe is a huge boost regardless of level, always worth doing.

limpid lantern
#

Whats the difference between those dungeon roulettes ?

twilit arch
#

Once you've done your roulettes for the day, you should be doing highest level dungeon (barring 50/60/70 dungeons)

zenith pasture
#

so im in the black shroud, how do i get to La Noscea?

#

i cant tp there

faint flare
#

Roulettes put you in a random instance for bonus reward once a day

Youd have to use an airship

twilit arch
#

assuming you've done the main scenario quest The Ul'dahn/Gridanian/Lominsan Envoy, you can use the airship to travel to la noscea

Always attune to aetherytes

Ehats the diff between a trial and a dungeon?

jolly snow
#

Good evening everyone. Just a quick question, are voice channel audio locked? I can't speak or ear in any of them :p
@jolly snow eeeeh,, nevermind, totally an issue by my side with my mic

twilit arch
#

trial are single boss fights

#

dungeons are generally 3 bosses with trash between and take longer than trials

limpid lantern
#

But better exp i geuss ?

faint flare
#

No

#

Worse

#

Cause its just 1 thing

limpid lantern
#

Dungeons have worse exp than trials ?

faint flare
#

Vs a whole dungeon and voss

#

Dungeons have more

#

Trials have less

limpid lantern
#

Ah yeah thats what i meant :)

#

Trials faster but dungeons more exp

faint flare
#

Trials are mainly for story progress and loot from higher difficulties

#

And like a quick trial roulette

hearty linden
#

What was the link to that website that showed you which quests that are important/good to do

hearty linden
#

Think so, thanks!

limpid lantern
#

I just did the ifrit boss from the story, is that a indicator of what to expect as a minimum for bosses ?

short sparrow
#

Well, they get harder. What are you asking?

little swift
#

the level 20 one?

faint flare
#

Mmmm somewhat...they get better

little swift
#

nah thats not even the surface

faint flare
#

And harder

limpid lantern
#

Yes

faint flare
#

Not even the tip of the iceberg

little swift
#

the ARR msq trials barely scratch the surface of how a trial boss can be

faint flare
#

Got like 60+ levels of boss content and various difficulties

limpid lantern
#

And that si good ^^ from my memory mmo's barring a few good ones usually didnt have good boss batlles but im enjoying these very very much

little swift
#

most of the normal story related ones don't have terribly difficult mechanics

short sparrow
#

I remember a horrible one where it knocked me off the edge of the world too many times.

#

Don't judge me, I'm bad at dodging. 😢

limpid lantern
#

Very excited to get further into the game then ^^

little swift
#

don't get me wrong, the fights can be exciting

#

i'm just saying that the challenge may not be there for you

faint flare
#

That would be titan sol

#

Its a rite of passage

short sparrow
#

I failed.

#

Maybe I'll succeed later. In another 67% installation time.

Its a rite of passage to be knocked off at least oncr

Hi everyone! New to the game and in Faerie. Currently playing lvl 20 ACN, looking for mentor to show me the ropes before or in Sastasha. Hope you're all well! (Aside from the getting knocked off platforms by Titan part...)

#

The one story boss fight that gave me a lot of problems was the Garuda fight

#

Me and my friend ran through it for the first time, and we had two Black Mages that didn't know how to the fight pepeHands

#

Wiped like 8 times

#

Often because the dps died, and it was only me and my friend left as a Paladin and Scholar

short sparrow
#

One thing I kinda feel bad for in this game sometimes is that you can get carried and not learn the mechanics right.

#

I mean... you don't even get a choice.

#

Sometimes the person who groups with you is just that good.

proven bay
#

Yeah. My friend and I read up on the fight beforehand, so we knew what to expect and how to deal with it

#

But a tank and healer can't carry a fight alone sadly. Especially not since we're new to the game too and end up making mistakes

short sparrow
#

Nobody should expect you to, it's not a good thing IMO. I'd rather get a chance to pull my weight even if I'm not good.

Anyone who plays on coeurl wanna link up do some dungeons?

With rotations and stat requirements

limpid lantern
#

Wait poetics is only good before 50 ?

faint flare
#

No

slate oak
#

as i am getting quests which give me like 4800 xp...

proven bay
#

You're not unless you've been through the 100 quest slog after completing the Ultimate Weapon quest

faint flare
#

They're used at 50, 60 and 70, occasionally 80

proven bay
#

Which it would seem you are at, considering the xp is that low

slate oak
#

100...gad damn

#

i feel like an errand boy doing everything for the move

proven bay
#

Yeah, it's 100 quests like that

#

Enjoy kekThink

#

Oh wait, you just started it even. If you're not even to the Mor Dhona part you've got a long way to go

slate oak
#

reee

#

thanks for the help as always guys

#

Quick question,
How do u start a new job?

#

Might be a stupid question

faint flare
#

You go unlock it at the respective guild then equip the weapon given to you

white ether
#

If I use my bottle of fantisa can I back out of character creator and still keep it?

faint flare
#

Yes

vocal shell
#

yes

fading pumice
#

How do I know where the guilds are?

proven bay
#

Look at your map

#

Press M

faint flare
#

The ones for the base jobs are in the main city

short sparrow
#

You know how there was a thing where you'd "complete" the base game, but then there were quests that were like "between" that and Heavensward?

faint flare
#

Expansion jobs just elsewhere

short sparrow
#

Are all those gone now, and if so what does that mean for returning players who were up in that?

faint flare
#

Nope

#

They're still there

short sparrow
#

I heard they were 'streamlining' it, tho?

faint flare
#

They're getting trimmed down next patch

#

By 13%

proven bay
#

They're being changed the 11th of August

faint flare
#

And general streamlining

#

Plus flight

short sparrow
#

Oh next patch. OK, I guess I'm 'early' haha.

#

Flight? In the 'base world'?

faint flare
#

And teleport tickets to waking sands

#

Yes

proven bay
#

Quests will be less annoying and tedious. And you'll be able to travel faster since you can fly

short sparrow
#

I've never flown in this game.
