remote lintel
#

!action flourish

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Flourish** : lvl 72 DNC (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Grants you the effects of Flourishing Cascade, Flourishing Fountain, Flourishing Windmill, Flourishing Shower, and Flourishing Fan Dance.

remote lintel
#

your burst

trail prairie
#

is there a buff you get from holding on to those leaf charges?

remote lintel
#

no

vocal shell
#

nah if you’re asking if theres any skill that needs 4 feathers, there isnt

remote lintel
#

dont overcap them

solid crypt
#

devil-something is DNC burst

trail prairie
#

i just noticed the potency on the actions that use the feathers isn't that high

remote lintel
#

its free damage

trail prairie
#

so i was just wonderin' if there was something i was overlooking since you can save up 4 feathers

vocal shell
#

dnc’s biggest bursts are its dances

leaden ginkgo
#

where do i go for roulette

slate arrow
#

duty finder

warped nest
#

First page

leaden ginkgo
#

uhh idk

warped nest
#

New player?

remote lintel
#

what lvl are you

#

and what lvl is your msq

leaden ginkgo
#

yep

#

new player

#

im lvl 19

#

idk how to get there either

warped nest
#

Guildhest and Leveling Roulette only opens up after you unlocked a few Guildhest and dungeons

#

Click It's probably Pirate

#

It should open up the map

leaden ginkgo
#

im not on the map tho

#

like it usually is

#

so idk

remote lintel
#

you don't have roulettes unlocked

limpid knoll
#

hey i have a quick question if anyone can answer, my friend is finally getting shadowbringers but he's trying to take advantage of he sale on the Square enix store. can he buy it there and apply the code to his Steam account on mogstation?

remote lintel
#

nope

leaden ginkgo
limpid knoll
#

so hes gotta get it on steam right?

remote lintel
#

yes

limpid knoll
#

thought so thanks

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo click the crystal

#

next to the icon

#

if you can teleport then teleport

leaden ginkgo
#

not attuned

remote lintel
#

then go to limsa

#

go to the fishing guild

#

talk to the ferryman and go to aleport

leaden ginkgo
#

ah ok

#

here?

remote lintel
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

ok thanks alot

crude marten
#

is pvp dead for this game? i cant do the dailies since no one is playing.. why? :(

remote lintel
#

wym no one is playing

lavish vortex
#

eureka challenge log restarts daily or weekly?

remote lintel
#

weekly iirc

lavish vortex
#

oh thats bad news haha, no more exp then

#

thanks!

slate arrow
#

This is purely speculative based on some stuff I read on the subreddit, but apparently PvP has a lower participation rate than raiding currently

simple shore
#

If PVP was popular, you'd like....actually see people doing it beyond just "for daily exp"

#

There's a reason there's no such thing as PVP PF's ever.

leaden ginkgo
#

whats levequests

simple shore
#

Yet there are multiple pages of raid PF's every day

crude marten
#

I see.. im pretty new to this

remote lintel
#

levequests are repeatable quests that use up leve allowances

slate arrow
#

repeatable daily quests, not worth using on battle classes

remote lintel
#

can be taken by combat or crafter classes and gathering classes

crude marten
#

is there a way to see the equipment in 3d to know what to get before turning it into glamour?

leaden ginkgo
#

whats the currency for

remote lintel
#

try it on

crude marten
#

ahh the try on command.. thanks mate

#

im looking at blue gear at the Market to see if there's anything cool to make into a skin

#

just to celebrate my clearing of class/job quest

proud willow
#

many of the cool glamours are level 1 so check the bottom of the list too

remote lintel
#

the color of gear doesnt really mean anything

grave totem
#

as a new player, is there something i should know as to why nobody does normal raid and alliance raid on duty finder roulette? it says wait time more than 30mins wether i queue as tank healer or dps lol. are those not worth doing? my main focus is to just level. im currently level 71

crude marten
#

oh i see.. its not like any of the arpgs color rarity system huh

simple shore
#

That's incorrect, people do those all the time.

#

In fact i'd say alliance raids pops faster than almost anything

remote lintel
#

@crude marten in ff14 it just vaguely tells you where the gear might have come from

simple shore
#

@grave totem which normal raids, and which alliance raids, do you have unlocked

crude marten
#

I play ninja, then white mage, the queue is instant as healer

#

@remote lintel cool! Can i only access my glamour at inn in gridania?

remote lintel
#

glamour dressers are only available at inns

crude marten
#

i think its a pain to go warping all over

grave totem
#

@simple shore im level 70 atm but my dark knight have done every raids. Thats weird. Mine says wait time more than 30mins. Maybe its my data center.

remote lintel
#

if you put your glamour into a glamour plate you can apply it anywhere as long as youre in a city

crude marten
#

lol i was under the impression i can only do it in my starting town

grave totem
#

I dont have to do every raid again on my whm to unlock them right? As lomg as ive done it on my drknight? @simple shore

crude marten
#

lemme find an inn then... I'm at the Revenants Toll

simple shore
#

@grave totem As long as its the same character then no, you shouldnt.

remote lintel
#

revenants toll doesnt have an inn

simple shore
#

However im doubting aspects of your story. Something doesnt add up. Alliance raids at basically all hours of the day is a 5 minute or less queue.

grave totem
#

Cool thanks! Mybe its data center issue. I am om eu atm.

crude marten
#

@remote lintel aww dang it

remote lintel
#

late at night they take longer if im a dps

simple shore
#

Ah hah

#

That's got to be in

remote lintel
#

inns are in major cities cian

simple shore
#

@grave totem take a screenshot of your Duty Finder please

#

and post here

#

Get the whole window

oak ice
#

Language settings?

simple shore
#

Thats what im betting on

grave totem
#

Ok hold on

simple shore
#

i didnt assume he was EU because he tagged every DC so he's colored as if he's on Aether

#

and Aether is rare to see the language problem

grave totem
simple shore
#

No, that's the queue window

#

one sec i cant screencap because im in CS

astral lake
grave totem
#

You mean this one?

slate crow
#

Been wondering. Is it possible to walk to other city-states before the plot takes you to the others or does something keep you from entering?

remote lintel
#

not to limsa

slate crow
#

Like if you start at Ul’Dah, travelling to Twelveswood or other

astral lake
#

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

remote lintel
#

you can walk to gridania

simple shore
#

Yes. Okay, so it is set to English.....that makes little sense.

#

What about your Raid list?

astral lake
#

Oh woops sorry i slipepcd my keyboard D:

remote lintel
#

@finite swift quests for aether currents

#

hence the sidequest icon

oak ice
#

Make it check german and french, too

slate crow
#

Why can’t you walk to Limsa? I know you can get to La Noscea from Thanalan

oak ice
#

It's an island

crude marten
#

Why do some equipment have the fancy particle effects on them?

oak ice
crude marten
#

Is this an upgrade thats crafting related?

oak ice
#

High quality has extra stats

simple shore
grave totem
#

Is this raid list? Sorry im new xD

remote lintel
#

@slate crow limsa is an island

#

on an island rather

oak ice
#

Click the D and F letters at the top, so you get people who only have German and French set as their languages

#

It helps EU times

simple shore
#

@grave totem ah hah - you have NOT unlocked all the 24 mans. I knew something was gonna not add up. You are missing the 24 mans from ARR and Heavensward. The ARR ones (Crystal Tower series, starts with "Legacy of Allag" just outside of Rising Stones in Mor Dhona) are by far the most common ones that pop.

oak ice
#

Might be on the cog in the upper left, rather

grave totem
#

I tried checking languages still 30mins

#

I have arr and heavensward unlocked no?

simple shore
#

I dont see them in that screenshot?

grave totem
simple shore
#

Oh geez, you had it scrolled just right to not show it

grave totem
#

Yea its too many xD

simple shore
#

Actually what DC are you really on? Since your roles are wrong

grave totem
#

Im on lich atm i transfered

#

Im planning to transfer to na but havent decided yet

#

Maybe its data center thing then? Still says more than 30mins for alliance raid😭

simple shore
#

Hmm, tbh idk then. Ive never heard of alliance raids not being anything but a fast queue. Your language settings are correct, you have the stuff unlocked, and its not as if its "a weird time" in the EU currently.

#

I do that roulette every day and its....5-6 minute queue as almost any role

gloomy ice
#

It is super early for eu though.

simple shore
#

oh wait, yes, it is super early now that i look

#

bad at manual timezone conversions

grave totem
#

Aight thank you! Im planning to transfer to NA data center but still looking for an FC to join in first.

simple shore
#

Okay maybe that makes sense then. ~5AM does tend to be "the dead hours" on NA, and its between 5-6AM in most of the EU right now.

grave totem
#

So that means alliance raid is good source of exp and good to do right? Just thought its not worth it cause of queue times but i guess its just im on inactive data center hours atm

remote lintel
#

yes it is

simple shore
#

Yes its worth doing

grave totem
#

Alright :) appreciate the answers guys!

remote lintel
#

what's the music for the azim steppe daytime

gloomy ice
#

Drowning in the Horizon

solid crypt
#

Ah fuck. i remember why i never bothered with Neo Ishgardian stuff. Is there a BiS list for crafting melds?

remote lintel
#

thanks eton

acoustic island
#

can i sell on other worlds mb?

remote lintel
#

no

simple shore
#

@solid crypt technically yes - but keep in mind that 5.3 brings a new tier of crafter/gatherer gear. So setting up BiS melds right now might be unwise if you dont have them already.

oak ice
#

Since crafted gear isn't BiS for combat jobs, just meld to your preferred GCD and then crit everything else

leaden ginkgo
#

how to disable uh, moving the minimap when i move my camera/wasd, not sure how i turned it on

simple shore
#

@oak ice i think they mean for crafter gear. Not Neo Ish.

oak ice
#

Ohhhh, damn, my bad

#

It's 6 am now and I've worked all night

solid crypt
#

I figured I'd need to pentameld my current stuff if I want to craft the new tier

#

i can't even make Neo ish stuff

oak ice
#

Crafting melds is basically whatever stat you need, you meld it

simple shore
#

It might be wise to wait

#

and see what the requirements for the new items are

oak ice
#

Different rotations need different cp, so meld enough, different items need different craftsmanship, so meld that, etcetc

rocky tree
#

the filler msq quests after lvl 50 are killing me 😦 how many are there ffs

oak ice
remote lintel
#

100

oak ice
#

Exactly 100

#

They're being trimmed on the 11th when the patch hits

solid crypt
#

ah i didn't set my doh/dol role. no wonder ic ouldn't find it. thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

I am stuck playing free trial so what job should i play if im solo?

remote lintel
#

all of them

patent citrus
#

any? 🤔

oak ice
#

All of them work for solo play, and you can try out all basegame jobs on one character

simple shore
#

@solid crypt In SB, 4.3 crafter/gatherer gear was the same requirements as the previous combat gear tier (i.e. 3 Star level 70). That might be the same this time - but it also might not.

leaden ginkgo
#

I tried conjurer first but i dont think thats a great idea for solo

remote lintel
#

it can

#

all jobs can

oak ice
#

It works perfectly fine

#

You'll have fast queues for dungeons if you play a healer

leaden ginkgo
#

ok well thanks for the answers

#

Is there a limit on how many Books of Inundation can be dropped from E3S

tulip plover
#

Where is the cavern of mourn

remote lintel
#

first floor bridge

oak ice
#

E3S isn't weekly locked anymore so you get one book per clear

#

@leaden ginkgo

#

You can also roll on all loot

fallow geyser
#

I finish hit 35 for trail...do I require to buy starter ff14 or do I skip to get complete set of xpac?

#

If I want to buy complete set of xpacs do I need starter too?

naive kraken
#

i'd recommend the ff14 complete pack

oak ice
#

You would need both the base game and the expansion. Starter pack is the base game, complete edition is base+all expacs

#

The price is the same for both options unless you can find one on sale

remote lintel
#

i wouldn't buy the game until later because the trial is getting expanded @fallow geyser

naive kraken
#

if you want to level up other stuff and wait for a discount on the complete edition, i wouldn't blame you

oak ice
#

Ye, that, too. On August 11th, Heavensward will be included in the free trial

#

And the level cap raised to 60

leaden ginkgo
#

@fallow geyser Just wait 2 weeks and trial becomes until 3.56

#

Thats ARR + HW + Post HW

#

And cap becomes 60 so more content

fallow geyser
#

Yeah

#

Mean I cannot dungeon or party or add friends during trail? Even 60 one that comes soon?

remote lintel
#

you can matchmake

little swift
#

you can get someone in full game to put you both into their party

oak ice
#

You can join dungeons, and other people can add you as friends and to parties

little swift
#

and leave it

#

if you're both on the trial

#

but no you can't add each other yet

#

until you get full game

fallow geyser
#

Yeah I have few friend on trail

#

They kinda rly enjoy it

leaden ginkgo
#

If you really are enjoying the game then buy it

little swift
#

yeah /shout for invite into a party in a busy city area is fine

#

people won't mind since it takes like 2 seconds

leaden ginkgo
#

I dont think you can shout in trial

little swift
#

no you can't

#

you're right

#

but /say is fine

remote lintel
#

or yell

halcyon grail
#

I have a question about a Monk skill, I'm not entirely sure what its -for-.

remote lintel
#

which one

halcyon grail
#

Demolish does little damage on its own, but its got DoT. I assume this is meant to be a killer on big bosses?

simple shore
#

Yes

halcyon grail
#

Is this 65 per sec?

simple shore
#

All DoT's are extremely strong

#

All DoT's in FF14 (except for Flamethrower on MCH) work as follows

#

They tick for the listed potency once every 3 seconds for the duration stated

halcyon grail
#

And then the greased lightning bonus - Is that per stack? Does it apply to the DoT?

simple shore
#

Yes all damage bonuses apply to DoT's when applied. They dont update later though - i.e. if you put up Demolish and then gain damage buffs, it wont start ticking harder.

halcyon grail
#

Also, do I even need Snap Punch anymore, then?

simple shore
#

Yes

little swift
#

ofc you do

shrewd owl
#

snap punch has more potency

remote lintel
#

you shouldnt be reapplying your dot every time

shrewd owl
#

you just use demolish to refresh the DoT

halcyon grail
#

Ohhh

#

So its like Twin Snakes

little swift
#

no point in refreshing a dot when its not close to dropping

halcyon grail
#

Get your status up, then go into the actual damage combo.

little swift
#

and same thing with your twin snakes buff

#

no need to refresh it every combo

halcyon grail
#

ofc

simple shore
#

Yes it functionally is like Twin Snakes in your rotation. You apply it when its going to fall off, and use your better attack (Snap Punch / True Strike) when you dont need to.

little swift
#

the idea here is its a yes or no kinda deal in your rotation?

#

do you have twin snakes thats not about to fall off? true strike

halcyon grail
#

I think I got it now

little swift
#

yeah its one or the other

remote lintel
#

generally you do 2 of the same positional and 1 different positional

#

like flank flank rear

halcyon grail
#

Think I'll remap my hotbar to put my status attacks in one section

remote lintel
#

rear rear flank

#

monk is just alternating combos

simple shore
#

I cant speak for how controller users would do it, but

halcyon grail
#

Yeah, I'm still trying to get the hang of positionals

#

Rather, trying to remember which attacks are what position and when to swap.

simple shore
#

on PC i have it set up like : Bootshine = E, True Strike = 4, Snap Punch = 3. Dragon Kick = Shift-E, Twin Snakes = Shift-4, Demolish = Shift-3

pure oasis
#

how do i hide the text above the skills on my hotbar? its the name of the skills

#

im on controller

remote lintel
#

twin snakes is flank and demolish is butt

simple shore
#

You may want to do a controller equivalent - basically set up 1-2-3 in the same slots, but on different cross (or however that works, i know next to nothing about controller)

halcyon grail
#

Right

simple shore
#

You may as well bind Dragon Kick ahead of time too, because it will be a core part of your rotation where it alternates being the first hit of your combo with Bootshine.

remote lintel
#

@pure oasis character config > hotbar settings > cross > uncheck display hotbar help

simple shore
#

So like you might do, for instance (this isnt instruction, just an example)

#

Bootshine -> Twin Snakes -> Demolish. If you did that, your next combo would be Dragon Kick -> True Strike -> Snap Punch.

#

and then the combo after that would be Bootshine -> Twin Snakes -> Snap Punch

halcyon grail
#

I got the idea of alternating combos. I was just unclear on the skill.

rocky tree
#

I think I will hit lvl 60 before I get through the filler MSQ quests lol. I am already lvl 55 and I have done about 1/4 of the 100 filler quests. I don't understand the decision to make those quests

simple shore
#

You have to understand

#

Those quests didnt all come out at the same time the initial game released

#

When the game first released, it ended at The Ultimate Weapon

#

all those "filler" quests are things we got in patches in ~3 month intervals between ARR and Heavensward

rocky tree
#

But there is no point to them regardless of that

#

they don't add anything

#

they are purely there to stretch the play time

simple shore
#

That's just completely incorrect, but i guess if you dont care about story that might be true. 2.3-2.55 in particular are not just significant setup for Heavensward, but also alot of information that's highly relevant to things in the future - particularly Shadowbringers.

rocky tree
#

what do you mean

#

besides like 2 quests

#

all I have done so far has been regular fetch

#

I wouldn't consider quests that give information relevant to the narrative "filler". Either way, so far most of them haven't been like that. I am happy to hear that they are cutting them but it just makes me wonder who thought that it was good idea to include them in the first place.

remote lintel
#

the second half are important for the story

#

after like ramuh and king moggle mog iirc

#

I forget if you fight the moogle guy post ARR

simple shore
#

Yes. 2.1-2.2 are dubious. 2.3+ are quite relevant.

#

2.2 does have some important setup but it could have been shorter

remote lintel
#

they're trimming it anyway so

little swift
#

2.1 2.2 and part of 2.3 wrap up the ARR bit

#

2.3 onwards obviously sets up for HW

#

they have plot importance, despite teh objectives being kinda bad

plush pebble
#

anyone else having issues with the s-e store?

#

is my s-e account the same as the ff14 s-e account?

#

I am so confused

tulip plover
#

Why cant i fly in dravania i did thr aether currents

#

@plush pebble should be

remote lintel
#

did you complete the blue quests

tulip plover
#

Yea

plush pebble
#

I can log into the s-e store but I cannot log into anything ff14 related

remote lintel
#

@plush pebble the SE store account isnt the same as your mog station account

tulip plover
#

Well i can fly on other mounts but chocobo?

remote lintel
#

you need to do a sidequest to fly on your chocobo

plush pebble
#

when I try buy the game nothing happens in the store

remote lintel
#

did you make a mog station account

plush pebble
#

it never asked me to

tulip plover
#

Can you buy and sell mounts

plush pebble
#

why does it say s-e ID/Pass

remote lintel
#

some

#

did you play the trial version of the game?

plush pebble
#

no

remote lintel
#

you need to make a mog station account

plush pebble
#

im trying to buy the game from their store

remote lintel
#

what happens when you try to buy it

plush pebble
#

it say's confirm order. I click it and nothing happens

#

I turned off my ad blocker and tried again

#

nothin' :/

#

If i try and log in here with my enix account it fails

#

but i can log in on the store

remote lintel
#

you can't log in with your SE account there

#

the store and mog station are different

#

they're not related

tulip plover
#

I dont swe mounts as a category on boars

#

Board

plush pebble
#

but they are both called square-enix account? 😛

remote lintel
#

no

plush pebble
#

it doesnt say mog station

remote lintel
#

your ff14 account is called your mog station account

plush pebble
#

that is square enix

remote lintel
#

!faq mogstation

zinc orbitBOT
turbid cliff
#

guys, im new here. Which server is the suitable one for a player from SEA

remote lintel
#

you make a ff14 account here

plush pebble
#

why would they ask for an account that they haven't yet explained

#

how do new people actually buy this game lol

short badger
#

Is there any type of server or fc for people who are new to savage raids?

plush pebble
#

but then how do I buy the game

remote lintel
#

you buy the game on the store and enter the code into mog station

plush pebble
#

then I have two square enix accounts

#

am I the stupid one here lol?

short badger
#

I bought my game from steam.

#

and it just gave me a code

remote lintel
#

you have an SE STORE account and a MOGSTATION account

plush pebble
#

and they internally refer to them both as 'Square Enix'

remote lintel
#

technically the store is "square enix members account"

#

screenshot the error its giving you when you try to buy the game

plush pebble
#

no error given but the chrome console shows a 404

remote lintel
#

did you try a different browser

plush pebble
#

I tried twice on the same one, just about to try that then i hit the dual account issues

remote lintel
#

you dont need a SE store account to buy the game

#

you can checkout without one

plush pebble
#

I kinda maybe just wanna do a trial

remote lintel
#

then make a mogstation acc

plush pebble
#

okay i think the acc got made

#

where do I put the code in?

#

thank you for helping me btw

remote lintel
#

code is only if you bought the game

#

just download the trial launcher

plush pebble
#

AHH

#

code was to verify email

remote lintel
plush pebble
#

oh shi-

#

the verification errored

remote lintel
#

did you click "sign in with square enix account" and put in your mogstation login info

plush pebble
#

it emailed me that code

#

and asked me to punch it in then crashed

#

now I don't know how to reverify

#

mog station gives me that

remote lintel
#

are you sure you made a mog station account

I'm in the same boat

#

it's like they don't want my money lol

#

Normally people need help playing games... not installing them. This is soo frustrating and should be the simplest thing to fix, yet googling has shown this to be a problem, for half a decade.

fallen lotus
#

i have minor question. If i commited tax fraud (free destination from registering one-time software app), can i turn it off and still be able to teleport for free or not?

plush pebble
#

I make web applications for a living. Without being over dramatic this is the worst system I have ever seen/heard of

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo the trial?

#

@fallen lotus you can delete the app

plush pebble
#

The entire thing is over complicated

leaden ginkgo
#

One of the ones I downloaded someone said sounds like you're downloading a trial, try downloading this link instead... and the link they provided also asked for a serial number.

plush pebble
#

any other company you:
go to site -> make account -> it works.

remote lintel
#

are you trying to play the trial

leaden ginkgo
#

Nope full game.

remote lintel
#

did you buy the game and register the code?

plush pebble
#

there are too many points of failure in this mess and at every point of failure it causes you to wait an undisclosed time (at least 24 hours) due to their own server errors

leaden ginkgo
#

When it first launched in 1.0, lol and every expansion since, yes.

remote lintel
#

does this not work?

#

unless you bought it on steam

leaden ginkgo
#

Will try it.

plush pebble
#

what does the free trial cover these days?

remote lintel
#

it will cover the entire base game and first expansion in like 2 weeks

#

when they update the game

plush pebble
#

(it isn't)

#

good lord

#

how is the actual game so good when the installation is this painful

leaden ginkgo
#

Hate that message, takes like 10 minutes before it disappears for me.

crimson wind
#

How long should the Anima light step take if i farm A9S?

leaden ginkgo
#

The game itself is great :-D I just hate returning to it :-D

plush pebble
#

the game is amazing

remote lintel
#

like 40 mins or less Wol

crimson wind
#

Ok ty

#

The final stretch uwucarby

remote lintel
#

assuming it takes 5 mins each fight

crimson wind
#

5 mins is solo right?

remote lintel
#

lol no

#

need like at least 4 people

crimson wind
#

Oh full party?

#

Oh ok

plush pebble
#

can I play the tarot card healer thingy on the free trial?

#

please don't tell me I have to try and buy the game

#

please

#

mercy

remote lintel
#

when the free trial gets upgraded you can

plush pebble
#

I WANT TO GIVE THEM MY MONEY

#

They aren't making it easy

remote lintel
#

subs add up i suppose

#

what happens if you just try to log in to mogstation meta

plush pebble
#

if Nomura or who the fuck ever comes to my door he can have my wallet but who ever designed this fucking monstrosity of an account/store system needs to be retired

#

I linked all the errors

remote lintel
#

it just doesnt let you log in?

plush pebble
#

no, and I had these same issues when I made my last account

#

I should have just upgraded my steam account ffs

#

I just wanted to save $25

leaden ginkgo
#

Finally, after logging in it could tell I already had serials attached to my account. Thanks Cerberus.

plush pebble
#

it wasn't worth it

leaden ginkgo
#

That took 4 install attempts to work.

remote lintel
#

no idea why it was asking for serial #s before

plush pebble
#

the trouble im having is with the non steam crap

cloud lake
#

Anyone familar with Triple triad. And unlocking this certain npc guy named Hab? Says there is suppose to be a quest in southern thanland but I have no quest? I checked walking sands no quest there as well? trying to get my last npc guy done

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah heard Steam is trouble so been avoiding it, though must admit until a minute ago I was seriously considering it an upgrade, lol

plush pebble
#

I have played 10k hours of triple triad.. on ff8

cloud lake
#

what about FFXIV?

remote lintel
#

i hate triple triad

plush pebble
#

can you transmute cards in ff14 to items?

remote lintel
#

no?

plush pebble
#

Trash.

remote lintel
#

you can turn in extras for gold saucer points

plush pebble
#

whole point of TT was to get items

remote lintel
#

you can get items from the gold saucer

plush pebble
#

not fancy hats

#

hero drinks

#

OP stuff 😛

remote lintel
#

i mean they have mounts and weapon glams

#

hairstyles

#

minions

plush pebble
#

im just kiddin

crimson wind
#

I only need the Anima weapon equipped when exiting a light granting activity right?

remote lintel
#

no you need it equipped for the last boss

crimson wind
#

Ok

remote lintel
#

which for a9s just have it equipped the whole time

crimson wind
#

Mmk ty Cerb

brave seal
#

can i only get one drop per week on the nier raid ?

Weekly Gear drop limitations for Nier raid
The Copied Factory, no.
The new one in 5.3, yes.

young fjord
#

Is 5.3 the coming, or in 2 weeks?

warped nest
#

2 weeks

dreamy rapids
#

is my subscription price supposed to go down from 15 to 13? does it need to be paid in a row

#

ingame it says ive been subscribed for 300 days

young fjord
#

What type of sub do you haave?

brave seal
#

i'm talking about the gear parts btw not the glamours

dreamy rapids
#

standard

brave seal
#

im trying to farm the striking set since it looks cool

young fjord
#

They bill you when your sub run out if you have auto renew

#

Ingame is just your total number of days

#

So if you play one month

Take one month break

Resub for a month, it will say 60 days

dreamy rapids
#

yeah my question was about this

#

so i need to pay in a row for it to go down?

#

sorry for being confusing

brave seal
#

afaik you will choose a duration

#

when you're subscribing

young fjord
#

Iirc you pay upfront

dreamy rapids
#

ohhhh ok

brave seal
#

so when you're going to subscribe you will choose the length

#

then pay upfront

dreamy rapids
#

thanks so much

#

that makes sense

I just can't win today, lol. Installer gets like 50% of hte game downloaded then gives the eror Unable to download patch files, crashes, and starts over.

unique geyser
#

I'm a relatively inexperienced player, only have PLD to 80, but my FC currently has a surplus of tanks and is lacking healers. so.. what's a fun healing job that doesn't make it impossible to juggle mechs and rotations?

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo did you try updating internet explorer

leaden ginkgo
#

I don't use IE.

remote lintel
#

white mage

#

update it

#

the launcher uses IE

unique geyser
#

tbh I was thinking about doing AST because it seems really cool, but I also understand that it's way harder than the other healers, is that true?

remote lintel
#

eh

upbeat storm
#

is there a place to look up what fish look like on canvas?

remote lintel
#

it's busier than all the other healers but its mainly about weaving cards between your heals and dmg

leaden ginkgo
#

IE or Edge... or both? lol

remote lintel
#

if you want to play it then play it

#

internet explorer

#

edge is different isnt it GWmythicalThonkCool

leaden ginkgo
#

Well it replaced IE as Microsofts default browser.

#

Didn't even realise that IE is even installed still until just now, lol.

#

Already had the most recent IE since it's not even updated anymore, will try restarting because that fixes everything :-D

#

Okay apparently have to either change DNS servers or download it while using a VPN.

#

Why it suddenly decided to do this after downloading half the game I don't know.

How is dyeable AF2 obtained?

How to get Dyeable Artifact Gear

A Realm Reborn i50/i55 set: Done in Mor Dhona by talking to Kakalan at x22, y6 after completing the quest 'Simply to Dye For' located at x22, y9. Augmenting a set of gear requires a total of 7 Augmentations matching the name of the set. Augmentations can be crafted or bought on the marketboard.

Heavensward i200 set: Done in Idyllshire by talking to Seika at x7, y7. The materials needed to augment the gear are buyable with Centurio Seals in Ishgard at the Forgotten Knight by talking to Ardolain in the 'Exchange Centurio Seals (Advanced)' option.

Stormblood i290 set: Done in Eureka Anemos by exchanging Protean and Anemos Crystals with Gerolt to upgrade the set. Eureka is unlocked in Rhalgr's Reach with the quest 'And We Shall Call It Eureka' and is accessed in Kugane by talking to Rodney at x9, y14.

Shadowbringers i430 set: Obtained from Idealized coffers in the trial Memoria Misera (Extreme). They can also be bought with High Legatus Idols obtained from the trial in Mor Dhona by talking to C'intana.

@crimson wind

crimson wind

Ty

plush pebble
#

currently have free trial. if I upgrade to the full game is there any extra steps I need to know about?

#

I just buy the game on and that is it... riiight?

remote lintel
#

yes

plush pebble
#

no weird keys? service accounts?

#

third account? mobile apps?

#

Do I have to fax anything in?

little swift
#

buy the game

#

register the code onto your mogstation service account

#

download game

plush pebble
#

Do they make me pay by cheque?

little swift
#

you can pay with credit card or paypal

leaden ginkgo
#

Have you reached the sell your soul contract screen yet?

plush pebble
#

not yet

#

I've been trying to buy the game for hours

#

all these weird systems

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah found them confusing as hell when I first joined.

plush pebble
#

buys game on account
Okay here is a key for you to tell me you bought a game from me.

#

O...k?

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh who am I kidding it still confuses the hell out of me.

#

Had to reactivate my account before I could even add a subscription to it, still no idea why.

plush pebble
#

complete lack of any systems

warped nest
#

Because they let third party to sell keys too

plush pebble
#

they have forwarded the effort of maintaining a mess onto the customer

leaden ginkgo
#

Would've thought being unsubscribed in the first place would've done that.

warped nest
#

So in some way, it is easier to make everyone use the same registration process

plush pebble
#

third party to sell keys too
which is the non-standard case

#

it's another path. Look at how steam handles that

warped nest
#

You are free to win at this argument

#

Won't help you get the game started

plush pebble
#

It isn't it is stupid

plain flower
warped nest
#

I am acknowledging that it is stupid

#

I am also pointing out that ranting won't help

plush pebble
#

I mean you think you said that but what you actually said was:

So in some way, it is easier to make everyone use the same registration process

leaden ginkgo
#

But agreeing with someone else whos having troubles and letting them know they're not alone so they don't feel as frustrated does help.

remote lintel
#

clearly theyre not alone

#

and this channel is for questions

plush pebble
#

and help

#

as much as im complaining at least I have an issue that needs help

#

trying to play moderator just means you are spamming the channel

little swift
#

so run me through what you've done so far and what you still need help with

#

i agree that backseat moderation is unnecessary though

#

mods and mentors will step in if necessary

plush pebble
#

I've made three accounts, two errored at creation, one seems to be working now. Buying the game has failed 3 times across two browsers

#

Finally gotten to the point where now have two of the required square enix acocunts and a free trial

#

Does anyone know why the game is failing to purchase in the S-E store?

simple shore
#

I've never heard of such a thing, myself.

little swift
#

what kinds of errors are you getting

#

did you put in your shipping address?

warped nest
#

SE store and mogstation uses 2 different account btw

#

So your account on the store

#

Don't help you get in on mogstation

#

Yes, it is that stupid

simple shore
#

Although from what you said above, you already successfully purchased the game

#

Okay here is a key for you to tell me you bought a game from me.
@plush pebble

Sounds like you need to go enter that code on Mog Station

plush pebble
#

I never got an email when I hit purchase, the button just greyed out and nothing happened

#

for the SE account does it need to be related to the other account in any way?

simple shore
#

Not particularly

remote lintel
#

they aren't related

plush pebble
#

it's still stuck in my cart

simple shore
#

When you buy a game from the SE Store, you get a code, as you indicated above. That code gets entered on Mog Station and unlocks it on your FF14 account.

plush pebble
#

nono I never got the key

#

I think it errored

#

it's still in my cart

simple shore
#

Okay, so, check your purchase history to make sure you didnt.

plush pebble
#

(I bought it two hours ago)

simple shore
#

That thing that he just posted

plush pebble
#

no orders

simple shore
#

Okay so you didnt successfully buy it.

plush pebble
#

and nothing happened

brave seal
#

maybe your card rejected it ?

plush pebble
#

I didn't get any errors but I can try another card to be sure

#

NA

brave seal
#

did your card deduct anything ?

plush pebble
#

no charges

brave seal
#

if so you can send a support since u basically gonna pay twice

#

oh probably an error

plush pebble
#

there was an error in the chrome console

#

it hit a 404 but that was chrome blocking a tracker

plain flower
#

Do you have any adblocker? The SE store does not play well sometimes with adblockers

plush pebble
#

I disabled it

No

@plush pebble try clear cache

good idea

all those cookies might be causing shit

@frigid solar those armor sets are from a lvl 63 dungeon called shisui of the violet tides

yeah well chrome isn't really a ram hungry browser

just bad developers really

plush pebble

I mean at 90 cookies in use they have some kind of frakenwebsite at this point

frigid solar

@remote lintel all I want are the earrings same place?

remote lintel

yes that's where you get them

#

they drop from there

frigid solar
#

Ok thanks

plush pebble

90 cookies, this isn't a website it's a fucking bakery.

little swift
#

Are you using a square enix account to make the purchase?

white gorge

i knew SE website being buggy

plush pebble
#

Yeah

little swift
#

Make sjre you shipping address js updated on it

Someone was having a similar issue yesterday

plush pebble

a lot of those cookies violate CRSF so clearing them might actually work

argh

it failed again

How often does expansions go on sale on steam?

plush pebble

and I mean.. it's true this is not good security

Ah that's may right?

Any other periods?

maybe I should try with internet explorer 😛

you just missed a steam sale

Sorry December

A friend in SEA doesn't want to enter a fake address and saw a similar price for a digital key on play-asia. Are the FF14 digital keys from play-asia legit? Can't find any info online of accounts getting banned

Whats the best way to get achievemont vouchers from Jonathan? I want one of the vouchers for the swimsuit thing

remote lintel

do achievements

frosty badger
#

duh

white sierra
#

I have been but gotten nothinf

obsidian patio
#

You can get a bunch of 'quick' achievements from leveling up classes

faint flare
#

Its 50 points per certificate

#

So just keep doing them

#

You'll casually get enough to buy everything and more just by going through the story and levelling

carmine patio
#

Do I have to do this part of these quests? Or can I just abandon them and still have the (hard) versions unlocked?

obsidian patio
#

I think you keep them? I do remember completing titan extreme and accidentally abandoning the quest and it was still there

plush pebble
#

I need a beer

white gorge
#

there's a discount rn

jagged crow
#

Is it possible to set a blue mage action as a micon?

white gorge
#

for FF14

jagged crow
#

It's not working for me

white gorge
#

at the official website

#

steam discount might come soon

plush pebble
#

is the story getting overhauled in august?

simple shore
#

Not really

#

More "trimmed" than "overhauled"

obsidian patio
#

@jagged crow you need the modifier bluaction after specifying the name of the spell

plush pebble
#

if I made a new char would it be weird when it updates?

obsidian patio
#

so something like
/micon "Water Cannon" bluaction

simple shore
#

~18% of ARR quests are being removed, or moved to side quests rather than MSQ quests. However, that doesnt mean 18% of the total time, just 18% of the total quests.

#

TL;DR useless fetch quests that dont advance the narrative are probably the target

obsidian patio
#

they'll also "compress" steps that are grindy, like instead of killing multiple monsters or grabbing multiple items you'll only kill or gather one.

simple shore
#

Perhaps a little bit less "pray return to the waking sands"

plush pebble
#

It can be pretty bad early game

little swift
#

13% being removed* and a waking sands tp ticket being added

simple shore
#

I keep on seeing that number flip around. idk why i keep thinking its 18 (or keep seeing it)

remote lintel
#

it's always been 13 iirc

little swift
#

That 13% isn't gone from the game but being transformed into sidequests

simple shore
#

Either way, its a trim, not an overhaul. The essence of the ARR story is gonna be the same.

#

You're not gonna suddenly not have to fight Titan. But you might not have to do quite so many chores to get to him.

remote lintel
#

but the chores make the punchline hit harder

simple shore
#

I figure that questline and 2.1-2.2 are probably gonna be the hardest hit by the changes

hardy abyss
#

when collecting ephemeral btn/min nodes for aethersands, I see loads of people using discerning eye, but I thought the following was more efficient?
I'm not just talking about in the case of an unlucky rotation either, the same people use it every cycle.
am I behind in the times or are they doing it wrong?

brave seal
#

yes you need to unock them

simple shore
#

You have to have at least two for it to show up as a roulette option.

hardy abyss
brave seal
#

same you need to unlock them

obsidian patio
#

@hardy abyss using discerning eye is more consistent, which is what people probably want.

remote lintel
#

main scenario is from beating ARR

simple shore
#

MSQ Roulette only ever has two entries

#

And you unlock them back to back

brave seal
#

i hope they fix msq

#

like its so boring

hardy abyss
#

uh I posted an imgur link but displaying an image for me. unsure if you can see it

brave seal
#

too many cutscenes

obsidian patio
#

i can see it.

little swift
#

People can aim for a 482~ collectability with the discerning eye rotation

brave seal
#

probably the only roulette i avoid

hardy abyss
#

and fair enough Yilmaz. just with good gear I never get below 480

simple shore
#

MSQ Roulette probably never gonna change again at this point.

hardy abyss
#

they do have good gear too, I should've mentioned

little swift
#

Which is roughly 4/8 to 6/8 when they collect

hardy abyss
#

5/8 is for the sands, super rare to have to use discerning eye on last ability before collection

#

but yeah fair. just wondering if there was some big brain meta I was completely missing

leaden ginkgo
#

as drk should I meld spam everything with direct hit?

remote lintel
#

skill speed to a certain tier

#

then crit > DH > det

obsidian patio
#

do note that if you also play warrior then you ideally don't meld any direct hit.

leaden ginkgo
#

I thought dh would be important since I have like 300 dh and 1000+ crit

simple shore
#

Yeah DRK has some specific SkS requirements

remote lintel
#

never too much crit

#

more crit

simple shore
#

Crit never stops scaling well

plush pebble
#

I get the ability to remake my character at max level, right?

simple shore
#

When you finish the 2.0 ARR questline you get one free fantasia

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh yeah I worked out the sks requirements

plush pebble
#

awesome

simple shore
#

Any future fantasias need to be purchased with IRL money

leaden ginkgo
#

@remote lintel that’s how my dps classes are never too much crit

remote lintel
#

for my black mage I just went full spell speed

leaden ginkgo
#

oh yeah that’s reasonable

#

I try balance sks and crit but prioritise crit

simple shore
#

Its kind of annoying that optimal BLM is "ALL THE SPS"

#

and optimal RDM is "SPS is cancer"

remote lintel
#

is it seriously optimal

simple shore
#

You basically cant play both

remote lintel
#

I just wanted to go fast

#

extreme no

simple shore
#

You dont need to exactly

#

However

#

At a certain point in the MSQ

remote lintel
#

hard is like the normal mode

simple shore
#

you're going to have to have Titan HM unlocked

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah hard is like normal

#

whenever I do duty roulette and it finishes and says (hard) I wouldn’t even notice it was hard and I’m a super casual player

#

ye

simple shore
#

TL;DR when something says "(Hard)" it really just means "scaled to level cap of the current expansion that the activity existed in"

#

it doesnt actually mean "hard"

leaden ginkgo
#

there’s no extreme in duty roulette

simple shore
#

Extreme doesnt pop in roulette

leaden ginkgo
#

No one queues extreme in duty finder even

#

yep

simple shore
#

Extreme is actually difficult. "Hard" is not.

remote lintel
#

savage and extreme aren't in duty finder

simple shore
#

More or less

leaden ginkgo
#

the only actual changing thing in duty roulette I come across is the nier raid

simple shore
#

Later on you start seeing fights just start out as "(Hard)". Which is confusing for new people.

plush pebble
#

I played up to level 50 before but I had to rebuy the game. My plan is to go AST this time but I wanted to play something that can do the MSQ quickly, anyone have any suggestions?

remote lintel
#

nier isn't hard

#

they all do the msq at about the same speed

simple shore
#

Nier isnt hard - the people you get queued with into it might make it hard though.

leaden ginkgo
#

are the digital collectors editions still on sale?

simple shore
#

I seen some shit in CF

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo yes

plush pebble
#

CNJ was pretty glacial

remote lintel
#

I think they're on sale til like the 27

#

Frontlines if you hate yourself.

remote lintel
#

leveling

little swift
#

is it seriously optimal
@remote lintel sorta but not really there's an sps hardcap breakpoint

plush pebble
#

you hold off on msq?

remote lintel
#

that's pretty funny

simple shore
#

MSQ roulette unlocks just by default as a result of completing the base ARR MSQ.

leaden ginkgo
#

msq roulette is the best xp

#

A friend in SEA doesn't want to enter a fake address and saw a similar price for a digital key on play-asia. Are the FF14 digital keys from play-asia legit? Can't find any info online of accounts getting banned/keys not working

simple shore
#

For what its worth i didnt ignore your question last time

remote lintel
#

idk if play Asia is a verified seller

simple shore
#

I just literally have no idea about anything involving "play asia"

plush pebble
#

play asia is legit as far as I know

#

I used to import JP fighting games from them

#

they've been around for like 15 years

remote lintel
#

I don't think you could get banned from using 3rd party keys

#

if they work

little swift
#

I mean keys from g2a work

simple shore
#

There's not really such a thing as a "3rd party key".

little swift
#

But those are a bad idea

remote lintel
#

3rd party sellers

simple shore
#

g2a is cancer and should be purged in nuclear fire

little swift
#

Due to stolen credit card purchases and what not

plush pebble
#

can't be any worse than buying it from the official store

remote lintel

it can be worse

plush pebble
#

doubt 😛

little swift
#

Its a use at your own risk kinda deal

#

You risk losing your account

plush pebble
#

for the four hours it just took me to try and buy it - it's worth that risk

#

also play-asia is safe

simple shore
#

I mean you're the only person ive ever heard of having that level of trouble

little swift
#

That 4 hours was on you not everyone has the same experience I even pointed out the thing you needed to do

plush pebble
#

google around my friend. I solved my issue from the slew of other having the issue

#

99% of people just give up when that shit happens. Look at all the negative steam reviews. 100% of them are about the issues (to do with making an account)

#

what did I need to do? @little swift

nova umbra
#

is there a way to tell which unique quests I've done?

little swift
#

Fix your billing address in the user settings of your square an is account

remote lintel
#

it means different plates

#

little swift
#

You had trouble getting past review order

nova umbra
obsidian patio
#

I think you can see completed ones in the journal

plush pebble
#

guess I'm wrong just me having the issues

little swift
#

90 unique include the various npcs you that offer the quests

obsidian patio
#

but yeah you'll have to go around and probably do the leves at every level range for 90 uniques

nova umbra
#

ah you're right

little swift
#

Each npc offers a couple of didferent ones

nova umbra
#

they're in the journal

#

thanks!

obsidian patio
#

each range has like 3-5 different leves in them

little swift
#

I also said that someone had your exact issue yesterday and that that was the solution metafield

plush pebble
#

to be fair that was the last 20mins of my issues

#

I was stuck at the other i2837 error thing before

little swift
#

Also the only 20 minutes I was around for GWaobloChildPepeShrug

warped nest

remote lintel

launcher should have the shadowbringers logo on it

simple shore
#

remote lintel
#

plush pebble
#

warped nest
#

Log out then log in again

plush pebble
#

warped nest
#

Did you log out from the game, close the launcher, open it again

#

And log in again?

mossy tartan

Do guests get to watch the cutscene as well during marriage?

plush pebble
#

Yeah - I think it is checking itself

remote lintel
#

Materia & Melding FAQ

How do I unlock melding?

Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.

How can I get my gear melded?

To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.

Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?

Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.

Why is my meld giving +0 stats?

Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.

The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.

little swift
#

For meldn specifcs

vocal shell
#

if you didnt get any and sat through the whole wedding, safe to say it was the free one

little swift

Assign yourself the job role you want

#

And you can access the resources related to it

#

@leaden ginkgo does all this help

leaden ginkgo
#

oooh aight yeah!!

#

some of the terms kinda hurt my monkey brain but i should be fine

simple shore
#

They're pretty similar, tbh. Independent chances to do extra damage, which can both happen at the same time.

shrewd owl
#

direct hit are basically just mini crits

#

and yeah they can happen at the same time

#

indicated by the two !! at the end of the number

simple shore
#

The big difference between the two stats

#

is that DH is a static amount of damage percentage increase

#

and more of the stat only increases your chance to DH

#

CH, more of the stat not only increases your chance to Crit, but it ALSO increases the magnitude of Crits

#

Basically Crit scales better than DH

#

Also

#

Crit impacts damage AND heals. DH impacts damage only.

#

Yes

#

Though keep in mind with Grade 7/8 materia

#

you only have a chance to retrieve it

#

i.e.

white ether
#

How does the recruit code work? Can I use it even after I resub?

green grail
#

you can only get recruited during the 30 days that come with base game

white ether
#

I haven’t renewed my subscription yet

#

Am I still in the clear?

green grail
#

if you've never paid for sub before then yeah

white ether
#

Ok cool

leaden ginkgo
#

Hello! I'm new and looking for a FC to join to learn the ropes.
I'm on Zodiark EU.. how can I do that?

obsidian patio
#

can you take a screenshot of the rings?

warped nest
#

Does it have slots?

gloomy mortar
#

Can I get the referral bonus if a friend renews a subscription?

simple shore
#

Yeah, what they said.

obsidian patio
#

@gloomy mortar if you mean if your friend can use an RAF code that has paid for subscription at some point, then no.

#

only accounts that have the base game registered without having paid for subscription yet can use the RAF code

gloomy mortar
#

How much

#

did you sell it for

#

I have ~4000 Achievement points, and ~50 Achievement reward points that you exchange for items. What is the relationship between the 2?

warped nest
#

One of them is to show off

#

One of them is to be used

gloomy mortar
#

How do you get the ones that you use? Does the Achievement Log tell you what you’ll get?

obsidian patio
#

You get one certificate for every 50 achievement points

#

and you 'exchange' the points whenever you talk to Jonathas

gloomy mortar
#

So the larger number is lifetime achievement points ?

forest laurel
#

yes
