So I should just go through most of the game alone?
daring jetty
theres a few links on it on google, what do people use mostly?
faint flare
There is literally
ONLY
Act
For dps meter
Advanced combat tracker
Anything else are just overlays for it

What server do people recommend for a newbie player from the Uk?
halcyon river
hey guys are the unaugmented tomestone rings unobtainable now? cant use augmented and unaugmented anymore?
silver star
@inner laurel I just started and I’m UK and went with omega, had the extra XP buff there. Not sure if it changed now
twilit arch
unfortunately, yeah you'll have to make do with a different ring @halcyon river
halcyon river
thanks! but crap, that really gutpunches my OCD
zinc orbitBOT
halcyon river
i don't think so, if you've bought ARR it doesn't consider your account as a trial account @leaden ginkgo
you could make a new account on steam>
hm then i'm not sure :0
manic agate
MIght be a dumb question but are weekly savage chests unlocked now?
halcyon river
are you on steam or pc?
daring jetty
maybe you download the original game, not the trial
manic agate
Or just books
daring jetty
?
halcyon river
hmm no clue then
twilit arch
neither, savage is still weekly locked @manic agate
manic agate
T>T
daring jetty
i dont think so, trial is diff. from the owned game
like, they havd diff. launcher for trials and people who have the game
twilit arch
when you say it says you already own it, do you mean its asking you for cd key?
manic agate
Thank you @twilit arch
static yacht
just make a new account then
and redownload the trial client
you odn't need ps plus
for ff14
AFAIK
make sure its this one
btw
the one that specifically says online free trial
yea it might be the user account thats an issue then
frozen violet
with the new patch giving out new gearing up avenues, how do I go about getting ilvl 480/490 after exhausting my weekly golden antiquity and allegory tomes?
daring jetty
trial account = trial client
game account = orig. client
static yacht
@leaden ginkgo
elfin flare
im trying to make an acount with the trial but when i pick PC it gives me an error
for some reason it lets me pick PS4 and it works but i dont wanna play on PS4
it says this
does anyone kno why
D:
daring jetty
try logging in that account in Mog station
or log the account on the free trial client. it happened to me before
elfin flare
wheres the free trial client
daring jetty
then I log in to the free trial client and i got in
nova umbra
so in E7S, how do the DPS determine which corner spot they go to post-add?
nova umbra
so you need 2 ranged, 2 melee?
tidal yarrow
do I have to look away at the end of the casting bar or at animation on redress Shiva?
remote basin
So I've done CF but nothing new. To do the next raid part do I need to do 5.1/5.2 msq?
tidal yarrow
sometimes I get stunned and it makes me so angryy
static yacht
you have a melee be "designated ranged"
nova umbra
and it's guaranteed that both ranged and both melee won't have the same color?
verbal forge
btw
verbal forge
is Dragoon an easy class?
remote basin
Because all I can find online is that I should see the next quests, but I don't
static yacht
melee = always front
ranged = always back
if there is someone with same color
then one melee / range flex
empty pecan
Me a couple of friends are looking to try the game out after the latest patch. Are there any servers that would be better to join than others? All i know about them is preferred servers give a temp exp boost.
static yacht
you have to decide
ahead of time
who the flexers are going to be
IE: in my group, it was ranged DPS + Ninja (cause they had mudras)
empty pecan
Ps4 version if that matters
verbal forge
does this game have any crossplay or none?
empty pecan
NA
verbal forge
also controller or KB/M?
static yacht
you can do either IIRC
verbal forge
i mean which one is more fun to use
static yacht
up to you
inner laurel
Any have an idea on which eu server to choose from
verbal forge
btw i went Japan Data centre tonberry
also is there like japanese dubs option in this game?
static yacht
yes
tidal yarrow
where is npc for second nier raid?
static yacht
@inner laurel choose any preferred one IIRC moogle is french shiva is german
twilit arch
yes you can change the audio settings to be japanese, but i should mention that if you know any jp the audio isn't going to match english text. The game is not translated from japanese into english/french/german, its localized for each language
tired tapir
I've been doing Copied Factory for 3+ weeks and swear I had like 5+ Blade of Golden Anquity but now I only have 2 and i've 'Search for Item'd and can't see them anywhere..? I haven't spent them either
verbal forge
I see
obsidian patio
@tidal yarrow depending on where you left off in the Yorha story the next quest is either in Komra, the Dig Site in Komra, or in the solo version of the Copied Factory accessed through the dig site
static yacht
if you can understand japanese, you don't even need to read the text though
unless there is no audio
unborn light
I have to do the solo version to continue part 2 for Nier 😶
static yacht
@tired tapir you don't get blades of golden anquity from copied factory
you only get them from E8N
inner laurel
@static yacht thanks very much. I am from the UK and english only choices at mo are Louisoix , spriggan and omega
tidal yarrow
oki thx
tired tapir
Oh @static yacht woops ty
inner laurel
No worries .
twilit arch
server population doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, outside of potentially less free companies
duty finder is cross server, and world visit means you can buy from other server's marketboards
static yacht
Housing tends to be more readily available on low pop servers tho
inner laurel
Nothing guild related though?
static yacht
0
Your FC is based on your server but
the way it works is that most FCs are for socializing etc.
any "difficult" content is usually done via "static"
A regular informal gathering of players to do content with who aren't server restricted
inner laurel
Okay . Might just gamble with omega server then. Because who knows when other servers will be available for character creation
Thanks for the help then guys
nimble lark
I recently got a few friends into the game since its going free
They already can't make parties can they also not join guilds?
faint flare
No
nimble lark
Or is it just because they were on the free trial?
elfin flare
are u on the trial on PC
static yacht
can't do either as free trial
faint flare
!faq triallimits
zinc orbitBOT
nimble lark
No I have an account on PS4
faint flare
See here
elfin flare
ah ok
faint flare
For the trial limitations
elfin flare
my theory is that its fucked up for PC trials
so i wanna see if anyone else is getting the error
nimble lark
Will those limitations carry over to the free version? I thought trial people just wouldn't have access to anything past storm@faint flare
faint flare
There is no free version
static yacht
Trial = Free
faint flare
Other than trial
static yacht
they're the same thing
faint flare
The game isnt "going free to play"
elfin flare
theres level caps and stuff
faint flare
Its been unlimited for awhile
static yacht
they're the exact same thing
There's the following:
You download the trial
which limits you to ARR + HS up to level 60 no forming parties, FCs etc.
You buy ShB + ARR which means you ahve everything
Or you buy ONLY ARR
Which comes with a "30 day subscription"
but I am not 100% sure if buying ONLY ARR
gives you HS as well
faint flare
(also buying arr also gives you heavensward, buying the starter edition lifts trial limitations basically)
static yacht
yeah
so basically you have access to ARR + HS
but you can make partys join FCs etc.
nimble lark
Thanks for the help I'll just send the link
static yacht
do note that
if you already bought ARR in thet past
you aren't able to do the free trial
on the same account
so the best way to save money is create a trial account and get to 60 and THEN buy ARR / ShB if you want to continue
and you will 100% need to pay a sub
narrow ether
Heya, are they saving the start of the second season of Skybuilder's Rankings for 5.31 or is it up now?

When can you start flying if you've never unlocked it?

Quick question, double checking but uh.. to unlock the Dwarf Beast Tribe, do I have to complete every single normal sidequest in Kholusia, or is there a list somewhere of what I need?

The reason there's no Aetheryte there is because of Lolorito

Blame Discord for not having an actual spoiler setting for channels and forcing discord admins to use the NSFW as the entry barrier
mild ermine
You don't go to new character. When you use the fantasia you unequip all the gear you can on your character. Then when you log out, right click on your character at login, and click re-edit
Omg did I just answer a question from ages ago because didnt scroll down?

bruh I got 36
little swift
minilvl for e5s is 470 (the bare minimum)
faint flare
Theres a dueling ring in the Wolves den
tidal yarrow
do I have to look away at the end of the casting bar or at animation on redress Shiva?
static yacht
yea you don't need a static until you hit level 80 @zinc dagger
keep going through the MSQ
faint flare
There's a point in her animation you need to look away
west spruce
animation
tidal yarrow
so it's not the casting bar that I have to look away
faint flare
No
tidal yarrow
omg my wording sucks
little swift
its basically around teh time she puts on her clothing on her arms
faint flare
Usually around when the dialogue box goes awwy is a good call
little swift
thats like the tightest you can go for normal
tidal yarrow
okay! I was getting stunned half of the times and I was getting so mad. still have to understand the exact moment
leaden ginkgo
Does anyone know how to get that NieR flight mount that we see in the trailer? I beat the raid and I think I finished all of that side story, but i still havent gotten a surefire way to get it
leaden ginkgo
Anyone able to help with my question?
tidal yarrow
thank you so much!! y'all amazing
Anyone able to help with my question?
I personally don't know
static yacht
same haven't touched any 5.3 content, still @ work :#
leaden ginkgo
@tidal yarrow thanks anyway
static yacht
more than likely the people in 5.3 spoilers will know
but then you run the risk of having 5.3 spoiler sso
leaden ginkgo
lol i tried asking there
west spruce
that's probably bozja mount, not nier
leaden ginkgo
i beat the MSQ already, but it's literally lore spoilers in there and no ones really answering my help soo /shrug
bozja? oh gotcha
leaden ginkgo
@static yacht the weird thing is I saw it in the trailer so i would have thought it would be available
deft quiver
wut
tidal yarrow
I remember after the trailer (that I didn't watch) someone telling me we would have gotten nier mount
deft quiver
for 5.3>?
static yacht
yes
tidal yarrow
I guess you're not alone that thought that
leaden ginkgo
@tidal yarrow yea, i really wanted that flight unit too, even if it wasnt a nier thing, it sure as hell looks like it lol
static yacht
you aren't able to turn normal items into collectables anymore
leaden ginkgo
I thought it would have been something that you get after beating the raid lol
static yacht
and all the items for rowena's house of splendors
was the collectable version of normal items
deft quiver
i see the menu was finally split into levels
tidal yarrow
maybe it's somehow obtainable, as I said I honestly have no idea..
spark sail
hey guys new player here, I've gotten to level 25 primarily just doing MSQ and main job quests. Should I start gathering and crafting yet or should I start that later down the road?
little swift
lots of the collectable materials can still be used to make the new collectables
west spruce
up to you
static yacht
leaden ginkgo
@tidal yarrow perhaps, ive been trying to search google, but it's still super super early lmao so no worries, thanks for helping anyways ❤️
little swift
the cunning craftsmans syrup is now for > rarified syrup
normal mesa
how to find the new free trial? thanks
deft quiver
is there a way to just open the rowena menu still?
leaden ginkgo
yea ive read the link, i didnt see it so it's probably not out yet, which is really odd, but oh well
deft quiver
cause its clearly not in timers
tidal yarrow
hey guys new player here, I've gotten to level 25 primarily just doing MSQ and main job quests. Should I start gathering and crafting yet or should I start that later down the road?
I would keep going with msq but up to you
faint flare
Its probably bojza
leaden ginkgo
@normal mesa free trial is accessible https://freetrial.finalfantasyxiv.com/na/
spark sail
thanks Yuuko, was just curious since I heard doing MSQ was the most sensible thing for new players to do
leaden ginkgo
or if you have steam, just download the demo
MSQ should be your highest priority imo
static yacht
Not sure. The reason why Rowena had a menu in the timer
tidal yarrow
thanks Yuuko, was just curious since I heard doing MSQ was the most sensible thing for new players to do
I'd say it's the most important thing to do, MSQ literally unlocks everything
static yacht
was because every week
the collectable that was starred would change
I am not sure if that is still the case in the new version
spark sail
Awesome just looking to reinforce that, thanks for the feedback!
spark sail
yep!
deft quiver
but is there still a way to see what the turn ins are without going there?
deft quiver
yikes
static yacht
just use gamerescape
faint flare
Just look at your crafting log
static yacht
they aren't going to change
leaden ginkgo
except for gamerescape, you have a billion tabs open by the end of it all lmao
deft quiver
youre tight
right*
lol
theres a collectable menu in the crafting logs
still sucks not being able to see xp/scrips on the go
plus gamerescape is shit
sometimes it just doesnt load at all
takes forever
topaz swift
Hey not sure if this is the right place to ask. But how do I get the Augmented Neo-Ishgardian gears? I have the neo-ish sets but still midway thru Shadowbringers, thinking of getting better gear ahead
sour laurel
I'm entering a small contest soon. First to lvl 40 on a fresh trial account wins.
I dpsed in ESO & classic WoW. I also heard queues similarly take forever for dps inFFXIV.
Larryzaur's pinned video suggests Pal or Red Mage for soloing. Red Mage isn't available, and I heard Pal doesn't do as much dmg as War.
Thoughts on fastest classes to rush 40?
static yacht
any healer
leaden ginkgo
honestly dps queue times arent as bad as they used to be anymore imo
static yacht
which pre-30
deft quiver
pick conjurer since its the only class that starts as a healer
static yacht
is conjurer
deft quiver
otherwise arcanist, but that turns into a healer at lvl 30
which will take a little while with dps queue
rapid knoll
when can i start doing dungeons?
leaden ginkgo
yea dps will always be the longest cause theres just so many classes compared to all the others
level 15?
west spruce
15
sour laurel
I heard Conjurer can't really solo though. Queue starts at 15, right? Is dungeon xp that much faster than main quest?
static yacht
every job is designed to be able to go through the story
deft quiver
you wont be soloing much anyways at the beginning
static yacht
by themselves
in fact
Healers are probably best to solo as
since they can heal themselves
deft quiver
yup
deft quiver
if youre undergeared as dps you'll get fucked
rapid knoll
thanks brothers
tidal yarrow
easiest way to do 5k mgp? I heard of some logs?
sour laurel
Healers do less dmg than tanks, right?
deft quiver
challenge logs
faint flare
Yes but for story it doesn't matter
tidal yarrow
I need that dance man
deft quiver
weekly things that give some mgp
static yacht
healer damage = tank damage
leaden ginkgo
@tidal yarrow honestly logs, and and then do the cactpot, and then go for the miner thingy on the second floor
i forgot what it was called, but its right next to the chocobo registration zone
chocobo race*
static yacht
DPS Damage > healer = tank damage
tidal yarrow
I'll try tysm, personally never did even once challenge logs
hope it won't take too much time
leaden ginkgo
they give a good bit, it's how i got the fenrir mount
deft quiver
win 100 mgp a week and the log will give 1500 back
maiden tulip
should it be normal that i get like 15 fps in the new nier raid?
leaden ginkgo
that doesnt sound...normal?
maiden tulip
have ryzen 5 2600 and rx580
leaden ginkgo
i was gonna say try limiting everyones spell/ability effects
little swift
yes act always eats it at the start of a patch @white sinew
maiden tulip
wasnt always like this
leaden ginkgo
yea i think it's because consoles youre limited to 30 fps as well
tidal yarrow
Is ACT still broken?
wdym?
little swift
i don't really place much scope on it being up right away
tidal yarrow
yes act always eats it at the start of a patch @white sinew
oh didn't know, that's why streamers didn't have it today
maiden tulip
i really think i shouldnt have those insane drops with that cpu and graphics card
gritty oracle
Should I use the new sleeve draw on cooldown, or always as the third card?
leaden ginkgo
i wanted to try ACT but at this point, im not gonna bother with it, i dont wanna even have a chance of my account getting banned
little swift
you're not likely to get banned
west spruce
I think you better ask people in the balance for that
gritty oracle
ACT is good if you want to heal/dps shame yourself
little swift
if you don't use it to be an asshat
tidal yarrow
you will not get banned at all as long as you keep the informations for yourself
deft quiver
nah
deft quiver
its good to get an idea of how youre doing in raids and such
tidal yarrow
there's people using it since ages
little swift
sleeve should be used on CD yes
deft quiver
ACT can help you improve a ton
little swift
but it won't align with every divination
deft quiver
along with fflogs and some vids
leaden ginkgo
Nah, theyve literally stated that if they wanted to, they can literally just thanos snap everyone with ACT if they think it's getting to be an issue
leaden ginkgo
so im not even gonna bother
tidal yarrow
cries on ps4 I hate this topic.
little swift
it'll align with every 3rd divination if i mathed it correctly @gritty oracle
leaden ginkgo
Does race/species matter in this game? I wanna play those big dudes with yakuza faces as healers cause I find the contrast hilarious
tidal yarrow
Nah, theyve literally stated that if they wanted to, they can literally just thanos snap everyone with ACT if they think it's getting to be an issue
up to you! if I could I wouldn't hesitate a single second on getting it, but I'm on ps4..
leaden ginkgo
idk if theres THAT many people using ACT
leaden ginkgo
imma be real with you
deft quiver
yeah
faint flare
Its a fair number
gritty oracle
It won't align because I suck and won't notice it's up or not use divination in time
deft quiver
not many people wanna do end game stuff
leaden ginkgo
theres way more casual players than hardcore people that use ACT
deft quiver
but im sure its a big chunk
faint flare
Raiding content would be dead
faint flare
Endgame content would die
And casuals would only habe dungeons
And lack of skills to do higher up
leaden ginkgo
i would consider myself to be pretty casual, i still play raids and such, just not EXs when theyre out immediately
tidal yarrow
I feel like the situation regarding act will always remain like it is right now. you can use it as long as you keep informations for yourself and that's it
and it won't be introduced any time soon
in-game
leaden ginkgo
yea, they said they wont ever actually introduce it offcially
cause they know the abuse that comes with it
remote lintel
how can riqi have slit pupils AND fangs 
faint flare
Because NPCs
tidal yarrow
I just wish they atleast added something to check YOUR dps
remote lintel
but the lore reee
little swift
if you're doing normal content, there's no need for ACT usage
leaden ginkgo
dont they have that Earth, Wind and Fire-September thingy?
little swift
there's rarely enrages in it and if there are its so lenient everyone has to be asleep to reach them
but its nice to have on savage+
leaden ginkgo
nah Normals dont have enrage
little swift
also false
raw solstice
nah there's been several hard enrages
tidal yarrow
everyone tells me "get pc players parse for you" like it's a reasonable solution
I hate being on console. since I aim to do savage content so soon also..
gritty oracle
tbh what is act really even used for? I use it only because I want to dps/heal shame myself and very silently judge my teammates. Then again most of my "endgame" is pugging ex trials in PF.
frigid cedar
which crafter would be great to level up if I play DNC and BRD mainly?
strong sphinx
does anyone know if its worth to upgrade from idealized 480 chest piece to the 490 augmented neo ishgardian chest piece?
leaden ginkgo
yea, definitely havent experienced dun scaith enraging so i cant tel ya
little swift
like i said people have to be all asleep usually for you to see a normal mode enrage
gritty oracle
@frigid cedar I recommend all crafters, because to some degree, they all depend on each other. (Except CUL which is its own world.)
raw solstice
the normal mode fights that have an enrage, it's extremely lenient so it's rare to see them. But they're there yeah haha, both soft and hard enrages
tidal yarrow
nah Normals dont have enrage
Titania does! my party just wiped before because of it lmaoo
leaden ginkgo
wtf, i didnt know titania had enrage
gritty oracle
iirc titania being mortal wipes even on normal if she's 100 power
raw solstice
yeah
faint flare
Add phase
quasi spire
i once had a party wipe 4x against that dungeon with the cactuar 10,000 needles attack, forgot the name
frigid cedar
@frigid cedar I recommend all crafters, because to some degree, they all depend on each other. (Except CUL which is its own world.)
@gritty oracle Hmm. I know I have to level up all of them eventually, but I want to focus on one for the dwarf beast tribe
quasi spire
but thats also a dps check
tidal yarrow
tbh what is act really even used for? I use it only because I want to dps/heal shame myself and very silently judge my teammates. Then again most of my "endgame" is pugging ex trials in PF.
it helps you improving in so many ways. literally the only thing that is able to tell you if you're doing great, or if you suck
leaden ginkgo
ok would you even call that an enrage i thought that was dps check
and thats you failing it
grim adder
has anyone found out where to get slithersand? o-o
little swift
its a beast tribe/ yellow scrip item @grim adder
gritty oracle
@frigid cedar In that case, I recommend either weaver, which also makes great glam, or CUL, which is almost entirely independent from other crafters.
frigid cedar
@frigid cedar In that case, I recommend either weaver, which also makes great glam, or CUL, which is almost entirely independent from other crafters.
@gritty oracle Okay , thanks!
raw solstice
dps checks and enrages go hand in had. I would certainly count failing adds phase there as an enrage
leaden ginkgo
hmm
raw solstice
since it's a case of "don't do enough damage in time and the boss just wipes your party"
tidal yarrow
ok would you even call that an enrage i thought that was dps check
doesn't enrage mean dps check? are they 2 diff things?
gritty oracle
afaik they're the same thing
static yacht
DPS check specifically refers to the amount of damage you need to do
enrage usually refers to the spell the boss casts
in order to wipe the party
they're pretty related
tidal yarrow
the way to be safe from them both is dpsing tho?
leaden ginkgo
i can see how they would be related yea
static yacht
yeah but you'd say
"we aren't going to hit enrage / we will hit enrage"
most people would say "We aren't able to hit the DPS Check"
grim adder
@little swift do you happen to know which beast tribe it is o-o
leaden ginkgo
it's honestly semantics
little swift
the new one, the dwarves @grim adder
grim adder
tyty again!
leaden ginkgo
yea
faint flare
Yes
leaden ginkgo
cause you also get like a full lb3 as well
tidal yarrow
then it sounds easy?
faint flare
Gear and skill
tidal yarrow
that specific part
leaden ginkgo
on normal, they shouldnt fail
leaden ginkgo
hmm, idk about savage actually
faint flare
Its doable with a few deaths depending on how geared people sre
little swift
remember, death is a dps loss
tidal yarrow
gotcha
meager epoch
does anyone know how to read the safe area on the first puppet's boss on Beam Cannon?
meager epoch
some of them overlap and become safe, some of them overlap and double up
violet star
safe*
meager epoch
not every area is safe
I think you need to look at the wedges and go into the smaller ones, because those become safe areas
violet star
yeah looks like the smaller overlap will always be safe
so the smallest wedge
so there are three safe spots and three unsafe spots
celest shell
Sorry stupid question but the next relic weapon step isn't in this patch right? Is it the next one or am I thinking wrong?
celest shell
Ahh ok Thank you
static yacht
there should be

Ironworks is the best until lv55

as tank, if dps doesn't use limit break at all, should i try to communicate to them or is it not worth it?

this game is already so ez mode streamlined that u literally just get gear based on iLvl and ignore stats

Hi folks, I am just thinking of rejoining FFXIV and seeing what the new patch is all about. I had trouble getting into the original game due to how long the main story quest got.
The question is: Should I recreate my account as a trial account, or start paying: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/18336496/
I don't think I have anything worth keeping.
halcyon glen
@forest laurel if you already have Crystarium, try to augment as much as possible starting with the highest stat stuff - Weapon, Chest, Pants, etc.

So...
In a perfect world, they could have added a little dialog those related NPC and let the players know that a more streamline process is coming in a week

A house or an apartment?
Houses you need to camp plots and get lucky. Apartments you just go to the apartment buiding and hope ones free. (IIRC that was how i got my apartment anyway)

how do i unlock the companion challenge log? i have my chocobo unlocked already but it does not appear in my challenge logs
@vapid linden there's another quest you need to complete to enable summoning chocobos to combat, it's in camp tranquil, south shroud, talk to the guy in the chocobo stable
proper cipher
Before purchasing an apartment, players must first attain level 50 with at least one class. Furthermore, players must have attained the rank of second lieutenant in the Maelstrom, the Order of the Twin Adder, or the Immortal Flames. Each apartment building can house up to 90 tenants, with each room costing 500,000 gil.

Is there any way to re-obtain gear that was a quest reward?
twilit arch
yes, quest specific rewards can be repurchased from calamity salvager. most of the gear you get however from the msq is usually crafted/vendor gear

I checked the calamity guy and he didn't have the side quest gear.
Let me double check the vendors.
twilit arch
what piece are you looking for

Thats crafted

can buy it from the amh araeng vendors

Sorry if this comes off as a stupid question, but I notice when trying to level via dungeons people keep saying "run the highest level dungeon available". Is this before you do all your duty roulettes, or will the "highest dungeon" still yield more exp than my duties?
Trying to level an alt job and dunno if I should do daily duties on main for tomestones or alt for "higher exp" if that's even a thing.

sorry noob here like big noob... how can i get a mount and what level do I have to be?

Okay that's what I figured. Thanks for the clarification.
twilit arch
expert and 80 roulette are more than enough for allegory tomestone cap
fair grail
oh wow, I had been just spamming level roulette... I guess it's just more exp for higher dungeons?
twilit arch
leveling roulette is really not that good once you've gotten the daily bonus
so doing level appropriate dungeons are going to be better once you've gotten that bonus
plain python
is there wig in this game for glamour?
spring oasis
if I wanna recruit a friend when is the cutoff time before they cant be recruited
twilit arch
since leveling roulette has a chance of putting you into a dungeon that's well below your level, thus not going to give good exp
when they pay for their first sub, nate
not as far as i'm aware, momo
spring oasis
ok they bought shadowbringers so rip
twilit arch
if they bought starter edition recently and are on their 30 days free from that, they can still be recruited
spring oasis

is it worth to level up your Chocobo with you? I see people doing that
sand token
I am looking at topaz carbunkle mount and am not a subscription player, my question is would they lock the mount behind the subscription after I buy the mount
twilit arch
no harm in having your chocobo out while you're questing/leveling in open world. they make decent healer/dps
you can't buy from the mogstation unless you're on the full game
plain python
so other services like name change are also full-game only?
twilit arch
yes
sand token
Sorry should have said i would buy the base game to buy the carbunkle and after the 30 days ran out, I would wonder if the mount would be locked behind the subscription model
low sun
if you buy theb ase game you lose trial access forever
obsidian patio
You can’t play at all when your sub runs out.
low sun
cant login without sub after that
its really just a free trial, not a free to play base game like guild wars 2 or somesuch
leaden ginkgo
if you buy theb ase game you lose trial access forever
@low sun more like if you register the base game, you can buy it without registering the key
