warm token
Ok. If I wanted to join the fisherman's guild or something... that won't effect my level or?
median locust
It used to matter because if you bought an item in the same city a retainer was stationed in, you wouldn't pay taxes
But now you pay taxes regardless, so it doesn't matter
strange coral
Fisher starts at level 1, but whatever class/job you have currently will stay the same. You can switch back to it.
warm token
Ok so you level those up differently as your main class level..
strange coral
Each class/job has its own levels. The exception being summoner and scholar as they share arcanist levels.
warm token
scholar is a healer correct
strange coral
Yes
twilit arch
yes
warm token
Ok so I will be a scholar once I hit a certain point with arcanist

when an mogstation says "account wide" does that mean i will receive the item on any character on each data center/world?

And future characters you make
feral oar
so I haven't played since before the first xpac. it looks like I need to resub + buy shadowbringers in order to play again? (or I can wait til next week to resub and get heavensward for free?)
little swift
You could do either
feral oar
and does anyone know how long the 50% off sale is going to be around on the square-enix store?
little swift
But either way you'll need shadowbringers to continue past heavensward
limpid lantern
@little swift let me put it differently, what is the best way to farm poetics for a character that just finished ARR (also, does the vid contain spoilers becuase it said shadowbringers)
simple pine
when can you get your grand company squadron to rank 3? its not listed anywhere
faint flare
Se sale lasts until the 19
little swift
The video just explains methods that are easy to get poetics from
feral oar
thanks all
little swift
Rank 3 requires you to complete 5 unique command missions
To unlock the last flagged mission
simple pine
ok thanks
twilit arch
no
little swift
Is it not that one?
little swift
Rank 3 just lv40?
twilit arch
ya
little swift
Ahhh brain fried my apologies
simple pine
so i need my squad to become level 40 to unlock the mission?
dry prairie
when a dev ask me to "discard" an item, that means literally delete the item?
simple pine
can i do the 5 unique command missions before my squad is rank 3?
little swift
@limpid lantern unlock all those lv50 dungeons and get access to 50/60/70 roulette. Msq roulette everyday as well. Your first time bonus in those dungeons will also give you bonus poetics

for ACT, is there a way to not log open world stuff and only log end-game content while it's up?

You won't be able to earn more moogle times after 5.3

@little swift i hade a problem with an mogstation item, and it got sended to the wrong character, so they are asking me (the support center via mail), to discard said items and tell them the world/character name and time of this "discard" so they can go further and send the items to the actual character i wanted, so i wonder what "discard" means, receive those items from moogle and delete them?
low sun
@wintry chasm i dont have a cc or paypal, so just trying to buy the game via debit, which mogstation allows, but i dont get the discount there apparently, kinda disappointing :/
little swift
Discard means probably exactly what you think
When you right click interact with an item
It lets you discard
faint flare
Yes, they're literally asking you to delete them
little swift
Which means throw away
low swallow
outside of deliveries how can i earn yellow seals
faint flare
Collectibles
low swallow
where do i do those?
faint flare
They're Rowena's turn ins. The items she asks for is in the timer menu in Rowena house of splenders
wintry chasm
@low sun hmmm all I can really say is that I've been able to use my debit card on the SE store really
low swallow
wheres she located
faint flare
You just turn in Collectors Glove/synthesis and go get the items she asks
wintry chasm
Least...according to my confirmation order for something I bought before
low sun
@wintry chasm ok dang, but thanks for trying to help. its not really a debit card, its giving them allowance to pull money from my account directly (its mostly a german thing)
faint flare
You turn the items in at any endgame hub area (mor dhona, Idyllshire, rhalgars or eulmore) or in the main cities at the appraisers
They're near the people you spend scrips at

Is there some kind of special gold like alloy in the ff universe wich i dont know off ?
fiery dagger
Commends help you get a gold crown next to your name
open coral
Player Commendations are just basically kudos from the other players in your group for doing a good job.
If you're a tank or healer, you're more likely to get a comm at the end of an instance than a dps, and extra brownie points if you actually did your job well.
low swallow
im having a hard time finding the "collector thing for yellow scripts" does anyone have an exact location/merchant name

Hmm it might be because every dungeon is my first and I don't screw it up for everyone lol
fiery dagger
You mean the scrips exchange? There's one at every major city
iirc in Limsa it's next to the dyemonger
open coral
People will be more inclined to give you comms if you're a sprout 
and do well, yes.
low swallow
the collector that you turn in collectables for scripts
warm token
Oh what does that symbol mean.. haha
open coral
That indicates that you're new to the game - you have not completed Stormblood, and have less than 200 hours (or something) played.
fiery dagger
Just look for a merchant that has scrips over the head and one of the four is the turn in guy
little swift
168hours
open coral
168 hours then, because who needs a nice multiple of 5 anyways -.-
green grail
it's a nice multiple of 24
little swift
168 is a week straight of playing

So after 7 days and stormbloodcompletion the sprout thing goes away ?

7 days straight of being logged in. Not 7 days real time.

twilit arch
yes
gritty oracle
Thanks!
glass cape
Ok, thanks for the info you guys. I believe I should've worded stuff a little better. Letting my sub lapse will essentially lock me out because my account will not be "free trial" - there was some hope I'd still be able to mess around on characters that was not over 60 and such.

The past expansions have collector's edition stuff that can still be purchased on the mogstation, but I believe the SE store packages only include the ShB collector's stuff

Just to be clear, collector's edition is only ShB and past expansions, but does not include the base game (starter/ARR). Complete edition includes base game plus ShB and past expansions, but not collector's stuff.

Can you not have two edenchoir rings on the same set? Is it 1 EC and 1 aug.crysta?
median locust
No, most blue equipment is Unique
Unique = Can't have two copies on you at the same time
equipped or not
You CAN have 1 unaugmented crystarium and 1 augmented crystarium ring though, those two are considered different items
vivid wolf
how difficult are the first 2 crystal tower raids for a beginner healer?
faint flare
Extremely easy
vivid wolf
like below aurum vale?
quasi widget
like look away from your screen and wash the dishes upstairs easy
faint flare
Like you barely see mechanics outside of the final boss
steep heron
the skysteel gathering relics neede HQ items or Collectables?
left moth
Most of the difficulty in labby is the first boss skeletons exploding (press medica a couple times)
Most of the difficulty in circus tower is people standing in bad
quasi widget
they used to be more difficult... 5+ years ago 🙂 now the level sync is too generous
theres some boss phases you dont even see now
gritty oracle
Can anyone help me find a video or romaji transcript of Gaius' speech in japanese?Google and Youtube were, for once, not much help.
magic beacon
You could set the game to japanese and run Prae
wintry chasm
well that wouldn't be romanji text to be fair
vivid wolf
didnt ffxiv allow for kana writing instead of kanji?
nvm its a tool
found this on reddit tho
halcyon grail
Does anyone know if the Wootz fending set has the plates dyed, or is it the soft bodysuit portion?
frozen karma
what's the fastest way to lvl a DPS from 57 to 70? Can't really do dungeons like I did on tanks because of queue times
median locust
Can check Eorzeacollection and filter only by glams that use the Wootz Cuirass, then you get an idea of how it looks in multiple colors
junior yacht
keep doing daily roulettes, obviously
primal zinc
hello. any idea why i cant equip samurai soul stone? i reached lvl 50 and completed ultima weapon
junior yacht
and then after that spam Palace of the Dead until 61, and then switch to Heaven on High
median locust
equip a katana first
frozen karma
@primal zinc you need to equip the katana the soul stone will come with it automatically
primal zinc
oh okie ty
halcyon grail
Ah, thanks. I was thinking it'd be a really good look for a Mi'Qote DRK, since it allowed space for my tail.
A lot of armors it just kinda clips through and it wigs the shit out of me.
median locust
It's looking like it dyes the plate then makes the soft part a darker version of the dye color
halcyon grail
Thats fine, so long as I can make it suitably NOT marble white.
agile laurel
remember you can try on stuff ingame and rightclick to enable dye preview
and since that stuff's on MB should be fairly doable
vivid wolf
probably
faint flare
3rd boss of scyrus has something to esuna
He puts bombs on people that knock others baxk
But not "required"
agile laurel
solely based on the fact I didn't know that mechanic was still in
i'd say it ain't yeah
halcyon grail
I'm on PS4, didnt see an option to preview dyes without the item itself
I'd purchase it, mind, but I already spent too much on another glam set.
faint flare
Try on > in the fitting room > square on the item and dye preview
agile laurel
Yeah if you have them in dressing room, then you 'bring up dialogue box' enable dye preview is there
median locust
Go to a market board, try on, then you can preview dyes from there
halcyon grail
I'll give it another shot at some point

half kraken
Er is there any way I can get rid of a general buff, I used the pre-70 survival manual for bonus exp when gathering, but now I'm level 70+ I want to use the post-70 manual but it can't overwrite the effect I already have
median locust
I'm too addicted to quit but I'd be super mad
half kraken
On ps4
half kraken
I can tab to normal class buffs but not the character buff
faint flare
Scroll over to it iirc
half kraken
Not working, I'll just try switching to mouse mode
median locust
If it's something you have to do often you can make a macro with /statusoff <name of the buff>, otherwise removing a buff on controller is a pain from what I've heard
half kraken
Switching to mouse mode worked

Are you meant to do all the crafting jobs at the same time? I'm having a hard time finding some wood and metal bars, and alumen, which someone told me needs to be mined.
limber walrus
so I just got around to training my chocobo (about damn time) and I'm wondering if I should train Defender, Healer, or Attacker?
faint flare
Healer
median locust
Culinarian is kinda self contained but all the other crafting jobs kinda feed into one another
twilit arch
i generally recommend atleast getting choco regen from the healer tree. After that you can either focus completely on the healer tree, go up to choco cure and then go into attacker tree, or go into attack tree
median locust
Also recommend levelling Botanist and Miner so you can gather your own materials
twilit arch
yes
faint flare
Yes
limber walrus
gotcha
elfin kelp
fishing seems to be pretty self contained, at least to level 20 🙂
faint flare
Healer means you don't worry about self sustain
median locust
Fishing is meh, not as useful as miner or botanist
Not many fish are actually useful
half kraken
I would recommend fishing only if you like fishing
There is a bit of money from it though, I earn about 200-300k a week from icepicks
limber walrus
is grinding monsters in the world the only way to gain chocobo ranks?
remote lintel
you can stable and train

limpid lantern
Non combats ?
faint flare
Gathering and crafters
limpid lantern
Ah, you do them as combat and then finish as non combat ?
faint flare
No
Non combats have their own leves
Like "Craft X thing" or "Go here and gather stuff"
warm token
how do i abandon quests
limpid lantern
I assuke you do that anyway so thst just seems like a bonus
junior yacht
open your quest log -> select quest -> abandon quest button at bottom of the log window
faint flare
Leves are the repeatable quests for non combats, seeing as their only quests are beast tribes and job quests
limpid lantern
Yeah i havent had any problems with exp yet
Im 6 lvls ahead of the MSQ
So i probably dont need them for exp
sonic pecan
I have a question regarding the upcoming 5.3 update
If I start playing right now, would I need to make a new character once the update comes? Cause I know the main story is being cut off by a certain percentage.
hopefully I'm making sense. xD
sonic pecan
Ohhh.
faint flare
If youre on one of them, it will probably be dropped and your main scenario tracker will point you in the direction of the next one
sonic pecan
Oh nice, hell yeah. Thank you for the help. 😄 Gonna get a subscription, then.

can anyone help me out? my game is not letting me use a controller even when in gamepad mode, and with it selected as my controller
jolly ermine
people recommended using the calibration setting but everytime I open it, it closes suddenly
yeah enable gamepad is on
all the people asking for help on the forums seem to have an issue with steam but I am using the standalone client
do I need steam?
sonic pecan
Is there anyone who has an entry subscription?

is there a way to get the noctis stuff anymore? i'd rly like the shirt for glamour reasons
grizzled warren

sly willow
damnit
strange coral
@sonic pecan Yes
jolly ermine
the controller doesnt even move the selections on the main menu, my guy
jolly ermine
could it have to do with the game blocking connections with apps like parsec
I heard a few games started doing that to get people to buy into stadia or ps4 remoteplay and crap
jolly ermine
still need a Sub and I think it is 50
vagrant tulip
ok
faint flare
The trial is Free to try until lv60 on the 11th

wait whats going to be the diferene between starter edition and trial now?
faint flare
You remove the trial limitations
wild wave
but the trial limitations aint much, just chat
faint flare
Its a fair bit, especially when you're given access to raids
strange coral
Social restrictions. Trial can't join FCs, use marketboard, create party, etc
wild wave
what's the gil limit?
faint flare
300k cap is ok at 35 but thats small at 60
stable hinge
has anyone seen a large plot drop to its minimum value?
faint flare
No
wild wave
yeah but hitting 60 and being way ahead
of msq means yo ugotta get level 60 gear to power through
faint flare
You'll have Shire
sonic pecan
one more question for now
faint flare
When you hit Idyllshire
wild wave
i haven't even hit idyllshire and i'm level 72
sonic pecan
is this game better with controller or M+K?
strange coral
The one that you are more comfortable with
wild wave
never tried with controller, but it's cuz i'm used to M+K

@delicate stone the merchant you can put inside housing has like 99% of the vendor materials from the guild vendors

It's not that hard
delicate stone
should I prioritize crafting everything in my crafting log once before doing guild leves?
simple shore
No. That's a waste.
twilit arch
crafting log for 1-15/20 is fine but after that, no
simple shore
Like its fine to do that in the super early levels for stuff thats the same level as you are, roughly
twilit arch
should be doing leves or restoration at that point
simple shore
but dont go back and craft level 1 stuff to get the "first time bonus"
delicate stone
gotcha, thanks!
exotic ridge
New to the game tank lvl 5 atm working in the hunting stuff atm, are the inner city quests worth doing or stick to main?
rich bay
Stick to the MSQ
simple shore
Select an option
oblique forum
oh wow
simple shore
you have to pick a reward
rich bay
You can do some sidequests if you need some levels @exotic ridge, but duty roulettes are better once you unlock them. So stick to the Main Scenario quests.
exotic ridge
Finding this select monster first then skills really hard atm
rich bay
Once you get used to it, it is pretty easy.
exotic ridge
I m used to ESO etc use the left mouse to swing sword etc
someone mentioned there was an option to target nearest first or something
rich bay
Yes corect, i don't remember where that option was, maybe someone else?
exotic ridge
I'll have a root for it tommoz
rich bay
Maybe the UI guide can be useful to you too:
exotic ridge
Ta, I haven't even got to that stuff yet
Do you know a good YouTube who is up to date?
Mainly tanking
rich bay
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/uiguide/battle/#category-battle_target
That should also show the option to auto-target the enemy you are auto-attacking
Check the balance for that, i think they are better for that then this discord.

strong sphinx
so i heard coming with next patch 5.3, it will be easier to get bis gear? how does that exactly happen?
simple shore
It started out the game as a side-dungeon. Then in a later patch it was added to MSQ. But at that point they werent really....sure how they wanted to handle that scenario
faint flare
The upgrade mats for allegory gear (armor and accessories) can be purchased via Nuts and the 24man tokens
patent cave
the 60 dungeons dont givem uch XP do they? is it better to just run the 59/69 dungeon over and over
simple shore
@strong sphinx it will be easier to get some BIS gear, because crystarium can be upgraded much easier. But you'll still have to do savage to get your BIS slots that use Eden
strong sphinx
tha means, you still have to farm the allegory to buy the crystarium gear but getting the augmented versions is easier since you be will able to buy the upgrade mats via nuts/tokens?
faint flare
Yes
simple shore
Yup
strong sphinx
alright
faint flare
You'll get at least 1 per weeo via 24man
strong sphinx
will there still be the 450 allegory lock each week?
faint flare
More if you do hunts
simple shore
Yes
faint flare
Yes
crimson wind
More if you do hunts
@faint flare wait what
strong sphinx
do we know for how much?
faint flare
Should cost 2000 and 3000 iirc
static yacht
ye
2000 for the coating
3000 for the twine
alternatively, 1 coin from the first lvl 80 alliance raid + 1 coin from the 2nd lvl 80 alliance raid

do you need nexus zodiac weapons to upgrade to the zodiac braves(example: thryus nexus to nirvana) or is the nexus weapons in heavensward and the zodiac braves is in a later expansion and a seperate quest line
vocal shell
The anima weapons are a different quest line, yes
faint flare
You dont need it
However having it allows you to skip the first step of anima
Which is a fate grind
Totally not worth doing a whole relic just to trade in to skip a step
