Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

short sparrow
#

Hardly any time at all if you mean full when logging in.

tight spoke
#

to create a chara

faint flare
#

It changes dramatically throughout the day

#

Best bet is late at night

tight spoke
#

actually, how big is the exp boost for a server with a star on it

short sparrow
#

My server is always full, but I never have long to wait.

faint flare
#

100% on everything

tight spoke
#

well damn

#

until what level?

faint flare
#

70

#

On all jobs

#

For at least 90days

tight spoke
#

...

short sparrow
#

Wish I was on a star server.

tight spoke
#

thats good

faint flare
#

Longer if server stays preferred

tight spoke
#

kk nvm then gonna go on same DC as IRL friend but preferred server lol

#

how do i get a secondary DC role on this discord

twilit arch
#

click on the datacenter you want to add

proven bay
#

I'm going to level up my crafters, but I don't have access to Ishgard restoration. What would be the best way of leveling up?
ARR beast tribes? Levequests?

faint flare
#

Both

tight spoke
#

wait until you get access to ishgard lol

#

Heavensward is free for everyone

#

but best thing to do is levequest with a levekit

leaden ginkgo
#

trev I found levequests pretty efficent

proven bay
#

I'm not. I have tons of time to kill while I'm waiting for my friends. Leveling my crafters is to kill that time while still doing something useful

tight spoke
#

until you hit the level for ishgard, then stop levequests and do ishgard

proven bay
#

What's a leve kit?

leaden ginkgo
#

wait is ishgard ishgard restoration?

faint flare
#

Leves if no ishgard restoration

tight spoke
#

well we are talking about crafters

#

so yeah

leaden ginkgo
#

I see, I only do levequests rn at level 60 weaver, would ishgard resto be better?

tight spoke
#

yes

proven bay
#

Okay, so leve quests then. Thanks a lot AYAYA

tight spoke
#

like

#

100% yes

leaden ginkgo
#

damn ty

tight spoke
#

I went from level 50 ALC to 80 in a few hours

twilit arch
#

leve kits are when people make a bunch of items for you so you can just turn in the leve.

tight spoke
#

and i was gathering my own materials

#

Also, is Spriggan or Louisoix better?

shrewd relic
#

did they change the amount of exp you get from frontlines?

#

i only got 2m exp and i didnt see the bonus exp for using roulette

proven bay
#

Yes and no. There is a bug where you don't get the bonus xp

shrewd relic
#

wth

proven bay
#

I assume it'll be patched soon

shrewd relic
#

wooow thats whack

#

T_T

#

okay yeah cause usually im supposed to get like 11m exp total

Hello, My brother Owns FFXIV Physical Disc, he wants the Digital Copy for PS4, Does He have to buy it all over again?

#

The digital Copy I mean

twilit arch
blissful lava
#

Oh

#

Thank You I'll Check It Out 💙

remote lintel
#

how can you time the tank LB on the new trial

faint flare
#

When he ||starts slashing||

remote lintel
#

ty

static yacht
#

press it like .5 seconds before he uses ||lb4||

#

iirc

#

as in

#

||when the gauge is about to hit LB4||

remote lintel
#

i think that's what i did last time but it looked like the buff was about to wear off and i got scared lol

static yacht
#

I think the snapshot time is waaaay before the animation

remote lintel
#

thanks for the info

granite swan
#

Anyone done the lv 50 summoner quest Primal Burdens? The guy i have to fight is no where to be found

twilit arch
#

hm is there no purple barrier to the area where you have to fight

granite swan
#

Ya i see the tiny purple edge now ... i was looking for someone to click tho lol

twilit arch
#

nah, just gotta walk thru it

tender hull
#

Hey, how do I get the yokai watch? I think I fulfill all the necessary prerequisites (I am level 40 and my MSQ is level 24) but the quest giver isn't anywhere in Ul'dah

#

Is it restricted for free trial users?

twilit arch
#

the event hasn't started yet

faint flare
#

It hasn't startedd yet

tender hull
#

ahhhh

faint flare
#

Starts 19th

tender hull
#

that's what'll do it lol

#

Neat, thanks lol

spare plinth
#

Can you stack the $13 entry subscription?

median locust
#

Like buying multiple months at once?

#

I think only with time cards but I might be wrong

spare plinth
#

Adding more days I think

remote lintel
#

you cant buy multiple months at once with entry

median locust
#

oh right, cause time cards are standard

#

derp

spare plinth
#

Oh, I have to wait for entry to expire?

granite swan
#

Is there a check list of what to do once you complete ARR?

median locust
#

It charges you automatically when it ends

remote lintel
#

^

median locust
#

Or you can pay for it after it ends if you don't have it on auto renew

#

with crysta or whatever

halcyon glen
#

As in 2.0 or 2.5? @granite swan

granite swan
#

Um, i dunno? I just got A Recurring Problem, and wanted to do other stuff before i jumped into the next MSQ

spare plinth
#

I’m guessing standard sub is where you can stack

halcyon glen
#

So 2.0

lavish vortex
#

Are there new glowy weapons in patch 5.3?

hollow oak
#

do we know the ilvl of the next bozjan relic weapons?

faint flare
#

No but highly probability 495

#

Cause it cant be over 500

hollow oak
#

i see

lone zephyr
#

Where can i change the fps limit?

remote lintel
#

system config > display settings

#

@molten elm balance discord

halcyon glen
#

Well there’s a good number of things you need to do eventually and some that are fun to do

  • Alliance Raids: The Crystal Tower - a side story featuring three 24-man instances. Good fun, nice story. Becomes mandatory for MSQ eventually
  • Raids: The Coils of Bahamut - a VERY DIFFICULT series of 8-man raids complete with its own really nice story. It’s recommended to find some level 80 friends and have them do the actual fights though. They’re really hard.
  • Hard Mode Primals - A meh story combined with harder 8-man versions of the primals you’ve fought so far. These also become mandatory to have done before proceeding the MSQ past a certain point
granite swan
#

Well i got no friends, much less lv 80s sooo yay :p

median locust
#

@lavish vortex Yes, crafted Tsukuyomi, Suzaku and Seiryu weapons were added. Bozja in 5.35 will also add a new relic step at level 80 with glowy weapons

remote lintel
#

you dont have to do bahamut

halcyon glen
#
  • Level 50 dungeons - there’s a ton of level cap dungeons you can unlock by picking up blue quests around the major cities and Revenants Toll
#

Bahamut is optional, the other two in the first post eventually aren’t

median locust
#

Yeah you don't haaaaaave to but it's semi important to the plot

halcyon glen
#

Oh and I almost forgot the most important one of all - Hildibrand

median locust
#

Like one character just shows up and you'll be like who dis

#

without doing it

lone zephyr
#

system config > display settings
Oml tysm i was getting scared because i had 60 fps ; - ;

granite swan
#

I feel i need to do it as a summoner, since i will be using him eventually :p

remote lintel
#

oh yeah higher lvl summoner makes more sense if you did bahamut

#

or you could just youtube the cutscenes

halcyon glen
#

The Hildibrand questline is some Very Serious Content that is Totally Very Important to have done

#

It teaches you how to be a true gentleman

remote lintel
#

youre locked out of shadowbringers if you dont have the manderville dance

halcyon glen
#

Okay on one hand that’s false, on the other it shouldn’t be false

granite swan
#

ok thanks 😉 That sounds like it should hold me for awhile lol

halcyon glen
#

Of course, you could always just do CT, hard primals, and then proceed to Heavensward

#

And by proceed to HW I mean do more MSQ

#

You have 5 MSQ trials left before HW at least

granite swan
#

Ah okay

#

Guess now that i can fly, i should go nab every crystal too

latent prism
#

is sps/sks locked to 2 decimal places or no

solar surge
#

Which duty roulette is best to to around level 50 after ARR MSQ? I can do Trials, Leveling, Main Scenario, and lvl50/60/70 Dungeons

exotic ridge
#

Im getting an issue with my mouse it jumps to the chat during a fight, cant seem to work out whats causing it. 1 orbweaver, 1 keyboard and mouse all gaming grade. nothing else plugged other than a second monitor.

Its really annoying as it takes the focus from the fight which makes it hard to tank.

Any ideas?

remote lintel
#

@solar surge for what

solar surge
#

For experience

remote lintel
#

all of them

twilit arch
#

leveling/msq > trials > 50-70

#

from best to least

solar surge
#

Okay, ty

remote lintel
#

50/60/70 don't give that great exp

#

at that point you could just spam highest lvl dungeon

solar surge
#

Makes sense

leaden ginkgo
#

and if you're at level 70 spam 69 dungeon not 70 dungeon, same with 59/60

tidal yarrow
#

what buttons do you have to press during last trial? mouse and keyboard

#

manovre

remote lintel
#

any

halcyon glen
#

Unfortunately at 50 this means aurum vale

#

Literally mash your keyboard and/or mouse

solar surge
#

I did that dungeon once and I never wanna touch it again

tidal yarrow
#

one button is enough?

twilit arch
#

ye

leaden ginkgo
#

aurum vale and praetorium are some level 50 classics

halcyon glen
#

Same @solar surge

#

But you can largely skip it once at 50 thanks to unlocking MSQ roulette

remote lintel
#

pressing only one button would be hard

halcyon glen
#

Which is a free level and change of experience at 50

#

And then HW leveling dungeons start at 51

tidal yarrow
#

wdym

halcyon glen
#

Though you do need to get to HW for that

remote lintel
#

mashing your whole keyboard would be easier than trying to mash just 1 button

#

the quick time event is pretty difficult

leaden ginkgo
#

you can also spam space right

halcyon glen
#

Literally any key works

#

I tend to use all of them

leaden ginkgo
#

ah

#

it was kinda scary first time

halcyon glen
#

My party blind wiped to the ATE

#

good times

vestal pelican
#

What's the best way to level gatherer's these days? Still spamming the highest level levequest or is there something new since HW?

leaden ginkgo
#

@vestal pelican I was told ishgard restoration

halcyon glen
#

We then proceeded to wipe to the very next mechanic on our next pull

#

For gatherers just do gathering in the Diadem and run Leves

#

Apparently

vestal pelican
#

Do I need to be a certain level to start either of those?

twilit arch
#

you need to be lv10 to enter diadem (60 on any job to unlock restoration and completed the 3.3 msq)

#

leves on the other hand can be done at lvl 1

vestal pelican
#

I'm starting all of my DoH/DoL from scratch lol. Tired of being a broke bitch on my RP server.

#

Gotcha. I'll get to messing around. Ty!

leaden ginkgo
#

I hear ishgard is great for crafters

twilit arch
#

its pretty easy breezy for both

vestal pelican
#

So just get them to lv10 then run out to the diadem in ishgard?

twilit arch
#

diadem is just flying around doing laps for gatherers, sitting in one spot for crafters

#

ya can do that

#

i would just make sure you unlock restoration first

#

unlock is near the ishgard aetheryte

granite swan
#

If you plan to start crafting just for Glamour, any point to grab any besides Armorer/Weaver?

twilit arch
#

yeah, other jobs barring cul make glamour items too

leaden ginkgo
vestal pelican
#

Carpenter makes a lot of housing items, right? If my sole goal is housing/glamour for marketboard selling are there any DoH/DoL I should prioritize or should leave out?

twilit arch
#

cul/fisher tbh are the ones you can ignore.

tidal yarrow
#

oki thx

vestal pelican
#

Okie!

twilit arch
#

leveling the rest will make your life easier in the long run since materials are going to be needed from other crafters

#

and gatherers ofc can supply base materials

#

plus it'll help cut down on armoury space

vestal pelican
#

Gotcha. Tyvm. 🙂

swift heron
#

I'

#

I'm lost. Is there something else I have to do to unlock Thavnairian scalepowder at the vendors?

#

I'm doing the resistance relic weapon quest and it's asking for delivery. I went to both vendors that claimed to sell them and neither do

agile laurel
#

You're aware for the first weapon, you didn't need to buy it?

#

you were given it

#

it's afterwards that purchasing scalepowder is unlocked

swift heron
#

Oh...

#

well I'm dumb, thanks

agile laurel
#

happens to all of us

#

variably

eager pecan
#

I'm level 35 lnc, and have completed the required quest, and have picked up the "Eye of the Dragon" - But how do I get to Ishgard?

twilit arch
#

to get to coerthas central highlands, head to north shroud

granite swan
#

Lol, starting the Corpse Groom quest is awesome, the chocobo keeps coming over to try and listen to what the chibi is sayin

twilit arch
#

and then go northwest ish

eager pecan
#

@twilit arch thanks!

leaden ginkgo
#

for weaver should I prioritise craftsmanship or control

static yacht
#

both

#

craftsmanship = increases how much progress you make

#

control = how much quality I believe

leaden ginkgo
#

all the gear at my level rn only has control as an option

static yacht
#

what level are you?

leaden ginkgo
#

61

static yacht
#

yeah that's fine

#

while you are leveling

#

just wear the highest level stuff you can get

cyan kettle
#

which fish can you desynth for swim suits? o:

twilit arch
#

for the most part, gearing is the same for crafting/gathering as it is for combat jobs. higher ilvl is generally going to be better

#

ideally you want to be using HQ crafted gear

static yacht
#

you level so fast via ishgard that its not worth trying to min-max control / craftsmanship early on

twilit arch
#

but crafting/gathering can get away with NQ

gaunt marten
#

i could have sworn it had eyebrows

leaden ginkgo
#

how ironic that crafting gear so expensive

twilit arch
#

uhhh that seems like a bug

granite swan
#

Someone shaved them off while she slept

twilit arch
#

But then again, i never really messed with lalafels in the character creation so

gusty viper
#

Noticed that I can choose a datacenter, and how would I determine for north America datacenter that works best for me? Connection wise.

wispy parcel
#

All of them are in California

twilit arch
#

All 3 NA datacenters are located in Cali

gaunt marten
#

iirc all NA DCs are in the same place

gusty viper
#

Ohhhh

gaunt marten
#

just choose where you think you'll have fun

leaden ginkgo
gaunt marten
#

Aether is mostly raiding centric, Crystal is mostly newbies and RP

leaden ginkgo
#

how do you get back to the ishgard restoration place

gaunt marten
#

I'll submit a bug report then

#

@leaden ginkgo from the main aetheryte crystal > teleport to the Firmament

twilit arch
#

There's an option on the main aetheryte to teleport there

#

or can talk to the npc in the brume

tidal yarrow
#

if I get to a learning party, can I leave whenever I want during the duty? or do I get penalty

#

cause since it's a learning, I think it will go for 90 minutes otherwise

gaunt marten
#

just let the people know you gotta dip and apologise. You can leave without penalty if you joined a full group through party finder

#

(afaik)

wispy parcel
#

You get a penalty if its with randos, with a party no

tidal yarrow
#

ah oke

#

I'd get no penalty then. my worries are that if I start pokeballing as It happens when servers are full like rn I can leave and let them get an other member that is not lagging hard

tight spoke
#

is there a way to transfer HUD config from 1 chara to another?

twilit arch
#

if you're on pc yeah

tight spoke
#

how plz tell

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there much RP to be found on the game? Started playing today and just had the thought

tight spoke
#

lots

#

if you want RP overload, go to Balmung

#

the ERP hotspot is Ul Dah

leaden ginkgo
#

Not the hero I expected, but the one I needed

wispy parcel
#

Most RP I know of is in the Crystal DC, not sure about the European DC's tho

tight spoke
#

ping from europe to NA DCs is great so its fine to go NA DC imo

#

I play on Crystal and im in the UK

twilit arch
#

C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn (assuming you haven't changed default path), and then find the folder of the character you want to copy the UI of (can either look in the log in that folder, creation date or mess with something on your character to change date modified) and then copy addon/hotbar/keybind/macro/uisave dat files and paste them into the character folder of the other character

leaden ginkgo
#

Also is there any sort of like

#

local chat?

tight spoke
#

yes

#

shout

faint flare
#

Say is close, shout is area chat

leaden ginkgo
#

there's multiple chats

#

I see

tight spoke
#

Say is close, shout is area chat
this

leaden ginkgo
#

Just because I have yet to see anything come up in the chat really

faint flare
#

Yell is slightly bigger say

leaden ginkgo
#

is the collectable appraiser hwo you level up fast with ishgard resto? because this is confusing T_T

swift heron
#

When did they nerf demicrystals??? they used to vendor for 500 gil, now they sell for 9 gil?

twilit arch
#

most people really don't talk in say or shout unless its some place like limsa

faint flare
#

This patch truly

twilit arch
#

generally people are talking in their free company or linkshell chats

leaden ginkgo
#

Fair

#

Idk what either of those are yet, but I know for now at least

#

Ty

twilit arch
#

you could join novice network, if you're still a sprout

swift heron
#

Why??

#

I just spent 2k poetics on it 😦

leaden ginkgo
#

Don’t I need some sort of invite?

#

From a mentor?

tight spoke
#

yes

twilit arch
#

You do, there's usually a lot of people in limsa

leaden ginkgo
#

Have yet to encounter one

twilit arch
#

can either say or shout asking for an invite

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah, okay

#

I’m in

agile laurel
#

Novice network can be a REALLY mixed bag

tight spoke
#

shout im a sprout at limsa aetherite

solar surge
#

Do houses in FFXIV have yards?

tight spoke
#

and you will get invited near instantly

agile laurel
#

Because while 'oh you can receive advice from mentors' sounds great on paper

#

@solar surge yep

leaden ginkgo
#

if you're a girl miqo you might also get free gil

solar surge
#

Alright, ty

leaden ginkgo
#

if you do the limsa shout I'm new thing

agile laurel
#

mentors are not actually guaranteed to be any good at the game whatsoever

twilit arch
#

ye should give the caveat that novice network can be hit or miss, but at the very least it'll give you global chat channel

agile laurel
#

or good people

#

or y'know, any of the above

leaden ginkgo
#

the novice network is pretty good

#

So im in Thanalan atm

#

its like this discord channel but in game

agile laurel
#

It can be, but it varies heavily depending on your world

lone zephyr
#

How do i learn regen?

tight spoke
#

say, can you transfer continent?

leaden ginkgo
#

Should I just keep following the MSQ to get to Limsa?

tight spoke
#

or just within continental DCs

agile laurel
#

Be level 35 on white mage? might need to do a job quest

#

!action Regen

tight spoke
#

@leaden ginkgo yes

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Regen** : lvl 35 WHM (500 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Grants healing over time effect to target.
Cure Potency: 200
Duration: 18s

leaden ginkgo
#

goto the uldah aetheryte and shout the same thing

#

@tight spoke aight, ty again

lone zephyr
#

I'm 35

tight spoke
#

and yeah uldah is the second hotspot

leaden ginkgo
#

@leaden ginkgo will do

twilit arch
#

did you do your lvl 35 job quest?

leaden ginkgo
#

Thanks for the help guys

lone zephyr
#

Oh it's quest locked?

agile laurel
#

yeah you need to do your job quest at 35 to unlock regen

leaden ginkgo
#

I feel a bit overwhelmed by some aspects of the game, but am also really enjoying it

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

the novice network imo helps with that

leaden ginkgo
#

I can just ask questions about anything in game and they usually help

twilit arch
#

job quests should be a priority next to doing the msq

#

since a fair number of skills are locked behind them

agile laurel
#

yeah doing your job quests is not optional

#

especially for white mage, as I recall

wise dock
#

So wait, was crystal a bad choice if i wanted to do dungeons?

tight spoke
#

no

agile laurel
#

no

tight spoke
#

crystal is one of the most active DCs

agile laurel
#

Crystal has a reputation for being more RP focused than endgame content progression focused

#

Which is largely a self-fulfilling prophecy at this point, but

tight spoke
#

^ that too

twilit arch
#

If you're interested in doing end-game raiding, crystal has a smaller pool to draw from but you can still clear content just fine

raven burrow
#

does fantasia let me change my characters name?

twilit arch
#

no, dokka

raven burrow
#

is it possible to change name?

twilit arch
#

that's a separate purchase on mogstation. its in additional services

agile laurel
#

but if you ignore the 'endgame raiding' aspect, crystal is one of the most active DCs for basically everything else

halcyon zinc
#

If I buy on mog station will it go on my two characters?

raven burrow
#

ah i see, thanks

agile laurel
#

~~even pvp luldog ~~

halcyon zinc
#

The outfit

twilit arch
#

Most of the costumes are not account bound, so no

#

it will be sent to the character you choose to send it to

halcyon zinc
#

When do I choose?

lime sphinx
#

Can we change where we spawn in the house when we join?

halcyon zinc
#

Because I have a alt I never use

tight spoke
#

how do i get a hotbar to only show slots with icons on them? I transfered HUD settings to other chara and the gear does not show up

twilit arch
#

should be light shortly before confirming payment

halcyon zinc
#

And I’d hate it to go there

#

After confirming payment?

twilit arch
#

it basically has you double and triple check that you are sure you want it to go to that character

halcyon zinc
#

Ugh stupid square wnix

#

Fug them

twilit arch
#

and no, as i said its before confirming payment

tight spoke
#

nah squenx is great

halcyon zinc
#

Oh ok

#

Well fug square enix anyway

#

Can’t believe they want us buy stuff for every character

#

😦

agile laurel
#

@lime sphinx Unsure what you mean, but you can't log in inside houses (beside inn rooms)

halcyon glen
#

or just do as they actually intended and only make one character

agile laurel
#

for reasons of 'possibly losing access while logged'

wispy parcel
#

well it does clearly state if its account wide or for one character

swift heron
#

Is there another high sellable cost item you can buy with Poetics since they nerfed Demicrystals?

agile laurel
#

if you want stuff for every character you kinda made your own bed tbh

#

@swift heron could check the price of topsoil

plush hound
#

Considering how few people actually run multiple characters, it's not as a bad as it seems.

twilit arch
#

i would look at the price of topsoil, truly

swift heron
#

Ok cool, i'll take a look

twilit arch
#

and exchange unidentifiable seeds/ore for them

#

otherwise, can just buy like scaevan accessories to turn in for seals and use the seals to buy glamour prisms or something to sell

wispy parcel
#

Wheres the quest giver for the current event again?

faint flare
#

Limsa

twilit arch
#

upper decks of limsa

wispy parcel
#

arigato

small atlas
#

if im looking to do hunts for tomestones of allegory, where/who would i go to so I can do it with others?

halcyon zinc
#

@halcyon glen Pretty sure they didn’t intend for just one character

wispy parcel
#

Join a hunt linkshell

halcyon glen
#

Far more so than any other MMO

#

You can unlock every class and do all content on a single character

agile laurel
#

the sole, sole and single reason to have multiple characters is for presence on multiple datacenters, or RP flavour

wispy parcel
#

@halcyon zinc everything can be done with a single character just like FFXI, only reason people use alts in other MMO's is for RP and to level crafters

agile laurel
#

and if you're going to that length for a technicality I don't think it's unfair for square to not accomodate you

wispy parcel
#

like in WoW people make alts cause you can only have 2 crafter professions per character

Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

How do I make the chat box fade out when its no messages? i cant find it in settingsd

#

its just always there on top

rugged shuttle
#

When setting up a UI you should always try to make it so its more comfortable to you. Since some people hate really cluttered screens, while some people want a billion buttons on their screen

tight spoke
#

lemme find a great menu guide

raven burrow
#

guess ill just google a little and see if i can find something good

#

thanks though

tight spoke
rugged shuttle
#

Since I am on PC my UI in minimalistic because I hotkey most of my actions and just remember the hotkeys so I can keep my UI as small as possible. On PS4 I have no clue how the skills even work

twilit arch
#

there's no fade feature for the chatbox

tight spoke
#

found it years ago

#

hmm maybe im misremembering. it fades away in custscenes. yeah my bad

twilit arch
#

yeah the chat box is hidden during cutscenes

#

unless you hit enter to bring it up, which you can just right click on the bottom bar to bring up the sub menu to hide it

#

but outside of cutscenes, there's no fade option. you can turn the transparency down though

I'm probably better off just playing on NA

#

@twilit arch i got another opinion on the lalafell eyebrows, and they said to add the eyebrows on the facial options, so it might not be a bug

hm, fair. like i said i haven't messed with lalafel character creation
@twilit arch Yeah, its been ages since I did

probably too lazy to do what i've already done, again

#

so I think I'll just transfer to Crystal

twilit arch
#

world transfer is under additional services section

#

once you choose your desired home world, confirm it and then it'll allow to select the world your character is currently on that you want to transfer

leaden ginkgo
#

thank you

#

also i was playing on trial, but im pretty sold so

#

i'll actually buy the game

#

do i want to be buying Starter's Edition?

Is anyone able to hit 60fps in Limsa/New Gridania, and what CPU do you have if so?
I think my i7-4770 is on its last leg, I go from 30 to 40 at the most with 67% cpu and ~30% gpu, so this definitely seems CPU bound

leaden ginkgo
#

ah okay yeah it's on sale

#

really good deal actually

#

you can just get to the end of heavensward to make the most out of your first 30 days you get with the complete edition

#

as in, do that before buying?

#

yea

#

how long is it on sale

#

then again it's up to you if you want the restrictions that come with free trial lifted

twilit arch
#

til the 19th, but the store gives you a code that you can hold onto

and/or can i buy it but not active it

#

hello im stuck at the mission where i need to enter sastasha but there is no one to enter with me is there any way to go in there solo?

twilit arch

you technically don't need to do them to unlock the housing districts, it just gives a bit more convenient way of entering them

#

Um sorry to keep adding onto questions but, on the topic of dungeon spamming

#

If you are the preferred class type should you still run daily roulette

#

Or should you be running highest level

faint flare
#

Adventure in need is basically irrelevant

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah the adventurer in need is useless at low level

#

since the xp bonus is so little

faint flare
#

And roulettes aren't worth it post the daily run

leaden ginkgo
#

the only bonus youg et is the xp number it says

fallow slate
#

Oh I see

leaden ginkgo
#

its better to just run the highest dungeon after roulettes

fallow slate
#

I was under the assumption that you got daily reward as long as you matched the class

#

Alright that helps a lot, thank you

No

#

You just get adventure in need which is a seperate thing

yeah I thought so too at first haha it looks like it would

agile laurel
#

whichever you find easiest

Whatever is most comfortable to you.

agile laurel

there really isn't any correct hotbar layout

obsidian patio
#

As long as you can easily press all your buttons then anything works

agile laurel

my jank mess of a hotbar setup attests to that

leaden ginkgo
#

ye but i just started as dancer im still not sure about everything i kinda need smth so i can guide myself

dusty jungle
#

Whatever works for you, but ideally keep Cascade, Fountain, Reverse Cascade and Fountainfall near each other as they become your steps for your dances

faint flare
#

Remove everything off your bar and add them 1 by 1

#

And read tooltips

agile laurel
#

if you're stuck for ideas, just put the combos next to each other, wail on a practice dummy for 5 minutes and make changes as you see fit

#

Dancer has like, the least buttons of any job so it shouldn't take long at all

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

Yes

#

Do note that depending on your market it can be expensive

warped nest

just a reminder that level 1-15 can be done inside your crafting guild

by doing all low level recipe once for first time bonus, using materials bought from the guild NPC

there's ramps leading down

i was tryin to go up :p

unfortunately ironworks can't be augmented with the salvager, you'll just have to either repurchase the augmented version or make due with the unaugmented version

bruh then how do i aug this ironwork weapon

twilit arch

The grand company hunting log is somewhat important as its required for promotions

warped nest

you use poetics to buy augmented ironwork weapon directly

#

the trading/augment steps are gone

vestal needle
#

how do we unlock the grand company one?

twilit arch
#

when you join a grand company, its automatically unlocked

vestal needle
#

is a grand company something like twin adder?

twilit arch
#

yes

warped nest
#

you can still trade shire/scaeven for augmented stuff with salvager

#

(yes i know it is stupid that ironwork doesn't do that)

mossy flower
#

ohhhh im stupid my bad i didnt see it said augmented

twilit arch
#

twin adders, immortal flames and maelstrom are the three grand companies

warped nest
#

👌 , Knockers

twilit arch
#

you can still augment ironworks provided you already had the items before the update

idle sentinel
#

If ur on ps4. For to hunting log in menu and use the touch pad to scroll to the gc one.

warped nest
#

ahh

idle sentinel
#

For whatever reason I get to it with the controls

warped nest
#

is it because you can get those items from the Crystal Tower raids?

idle sentinel
#

Needed to use touch pad cursor

warped nest
#

or are those gone too?

twilit arch
#

no

leaden ginkgo
#

they just made the steps easier

twilit arch
#

they were all removed

warped nest
#

so.... ironworks can be augmented if you bought both gear and mats before 5.3

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

yep

warped nest
#

and existing shire/scaeven just direct trade with salvager

leaden ginkgo
#

otherwise its only pre augmented when purchased

warped nest
#

otherwise, everyone else who got to these part later will just get augmented everything

Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly in the expansion zones. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

Yooo bet thanks

Quick question, does it matter what grand company I join besides who I pvp against?

rugged shuttle
#

Is there any reason ever to turn HQ to NQ?

warped nest
#

save slots in inventory

remote lintel
#

when you don't need/want HQ for whatever reason

warped nest
#

i always keep my stock of super low level crafting material at NQ (iron ore, copper ore etc)

#

because i don't need the small quality boost from them

rugged shuttle
#

Seems like its just better to save the HQ stuff

warped nest
#

almost always, yes

daring jetty
#

hunting log is included on squad recruits?

warped nest
#

i was just presenting the one case where you don't need HQ/NQ stacks seperately

river solar
#

remember who give the summer quest?

twilit arch
#

@wise dock nope, only difference between gcs is location and their elite armour sets

honest ocean
#

Next part of relic weapons comes with 5.35?

warped nest
#

which is "i outlevel the crafting materials so much that I can just keep NQ materials, and i don't need HQ on a different stack eating up inventory slot"

twilit arch
#

yes, zeezoo

#

mayaru moyaru in upper decks, limsa @river solar

warped nest
#

does all seasonal event always start in limsa upper deck?

#

i know that summer and new year are there

#

i can't be certain about halloween and the anniversary

gloomy mortar
#

Check the MB. See if the HQ material sells for significantly more the NQ. If not that much difference, and you need the inventory slot, downgrade it. For example, a HQ Brass Ingot.

warped nest
#

oh wait, nvm, some are in new gridania too

slim scaffold
#

I have a quick question, how much time do you save with the new patch on the 2.0 MSQ? As a first time player

twilit arch
#

No, not all seasonals are in upper decks

#

halloween is usually gridania, same with christmas

warped nest
#

valentine too aint it

twilit arch
#

yeah

warped nest
#

anniversary is... uldah

twilit arch
#

usually, but not always

warped nest
#

@slim scaffold ummm... hard to tell

river solar
#

where?

twilit arch
#

that's lowerdecks

warped nest
#

if you are a first time player... it shouldn't affect you one way or another

#

all that matters is you have less busy work

twilit arch
warped nest
#

go to main aetherythe, go east into a room, find a stair on the south of the room

#

climb up

slim scaffold
#

It's just that the MSQ is quite boring and it feels like that they only cut some parts (or made some parts less tedious)

warped nest
#

head south.

if you have attuned to all the inner city aetheryte, you want to go for "Aft Castle"

#

that's it

river solar
#

@twilit arch ty

granite swan
#

Any point in doing ARR Relic Weapon?

warped nest
#

for glamour

twilit arch
#

if you like it for glamour

granite swan
#

ok

twilit arch
#

but even then its strongly recommended to do when you're 80

#

since its a lot easier

warped nest
#

that's the fate for all weapons/armors

mossy flower
#

where is marketboard?

warped nest
#

in major cities, always in the merchant hallway

#

in limsa, it is west of the main aetheryte

#

merchant hallway is on the east side in Old Gridania

sick osprey
#

is flying faster than walking with mount ?

warped nest
#

yes

gloomy mortar
#

yes

hollow maple
#

is there a way to turn off the lightning effects? it's doing something really weird graphically for me.... like inverting the colors

faint flare
#

Its the fastest

sick osprey
#

is flight speed affected by mount speed of the area ?

faint flare
#

No

gloomy mortar
#

No

faint flare
#

Its automatically faster

#

Than 2*

warped nest
#

@granite swan a reminder that relic weapons don't exist for jobs that weren't there in the expansion. For example, Samurai is introduced in Stormblood, so it doesn't have ARR and HW relic, but it does have SB and ShB relic

#

btw, you automatically unlock flying in ARR region once you finish The Ultimate Weapon story quest, so don't waste your effort getting riding maps to speed up your ground speed

#

(slightly more steps in HW onward, but that's not important for now)

polar depot
#

Hey i need some help, i cannot conect with my character, Farys Mana on the louisoix server, i'm at limsa lominsa and i started the quest about the Housing but i go the Mist at the lower Noscea, but I clicked on the name of a resident to test and now I can no longer connect with my character, the game close by itself

rugged shuttle
#

Also isn't the relic weapons in ARR just terrible and only for cosmetic?

gloomy mortar
#

Where can you buy Seasonal Miscellany other than the MB? For example, sparklers and champagne. Or were they bought long ago and the remaining supply is being sold

twilit arch
#

yea, old relic weapons at this point aren't worth getting unless you want it for glamour reasons

warped nest
#

ARR weapons were the best weapons at the time

#

then they just get outrank

ember goblet
#

the 80s maps are farmable from any gatering spot from an 80 node?

warped nest
#

that's why their only purpose, like all obsolete gear, are to be used as glamour

#

yes

twilit arch
#

yeah, any lvl 80 node has a chance of spawning maps

warped nest
#

take note that it is on a cooldown time

#

you can check that on your Timer UI

twilit arch
#

also its a hidden item, so if your only goal is the map

#

you can tap the node, see if its spawned

#

if not, exit and run to the next node

#

and just keep doing that until it does

warped nest
#

after clicking a few other nodes (there is a logic to this, but it is too long to explain), the previous nodes will refresh

dusty jungle
#

3 I think

warped nest
#

technically, 2

#

but seeing that you are checking for treasure maps, just loop all 6 is fine

gloomy mortar
#

What gear is BiS nowadays for Level 80 Gatherer&Crafter? They said hold off on spending big money for Neo-Ish gear because new gear is coming

raven burrow
#

is neo ishgardian equipment expensive?

twilit arch
#

aesthete is the new BiS set

#

for crafting/gathering classes

warped nest
#

pentameld Aesthete will be the BiS... probably till the end?

#

i don't think another tier is coming

twilit arch
#

yes, its very very unlikely a new set will be released

warped nest
#

dragonsong will get upgrades

#

but it won't beat pentameld Aesthete

twilit arch
#

at most, we'll possibly get augmented professional gear

dusty jungle
#

is neo ishgardian equipment expensive?
@raven burrow this will vary on what you consider expensive and what world you are on; but generally no, not anymore

twilit arch
#

but even that won't beat out pentamelded aesthete

solar surge
#

So, my friend doesn't have Shadowbringers. Will I still be able to play w/ them if they don't have it? (Say, in ARR and Heavensward)

warped nest
#

yes

twilit arch
#

sure

raven burrow
#

@dusty jungle i just came back to the game and got like 2mil gil, i suppose thats not enough? my current ilvl is 445

solar surge
#

Okay, ty

gloomy mortar
#

They say it may cost about 30 million gil to pentameld Level 8 materia into gear. How does that work? Is it that expensive

warped nest
#

i will suggest doing both Eden raid (normal) to get some gear first

#

pentameld means you need to waste materia

#

because the hidden slots can fail melding

twilit arch
#

depending on whether you have a stockpile of grade 8 materia, pentamelding is going to be expensive because the more materia you meld, the lower the meld chances become

dusty jungle
#

@dusty jungle i just came back to the game and got like 2mil gil, i suppose thats not enough? my current ilvl is 445
@raven burrow yes, that should be enough, I'd recommend world visiting between others on your DC and finding the cheapest deal for each piece.

raven burrow
#

hmm alright thanks

warped nest
#

i still stick with my recommendation on doing eden raid for gears first

twilit arch
#

the lowest slot meld is between 5% (grade 7) and 16% (grade 1)

warped nest
#

then buy some neo-ishgardian with gil or crystarium with allegory tomestone

twilit arch
#

sometimes you get lucky, and pentameld on the first try. don't expect that

#

expect to break a lot of materia

#

a lot

warped nest
#

don't forget that both nier alliance raid give gears too (the newer one are weekly gated, but it gives i490 gear)

raven burrow
#

@warped nest how so? i mean if i can bump my ilvl to 480ish with gil then doing those raids should become easier, right?

gloomy mortar
#

Pentamelding gear doesn't seem worth it, when 30 million can get you a house... So is just regular-melded Aesthete gear good enough/better than Neo-Ish?

twilit arch
#

normal mode eden verse gives 480 gear

warped nest
#

you should be able to get into the first eden raid

twilit arch
#

Also its not weekly locked anymore, so you can freely farm for a set

warped nest
#

the only neo-ishgardian HQ gear i recommend buying right now, if youw ant to make it very easy, is the weapon

twilit arch
#

if you're not really into end-game crafting, then you definitely don't need aesthete.

warped nest
#

I cannot emphasis how important it is to get HQ neo-ishgardian gear if your intent is to use it

faint flare
#

Neo ishgardian is combat, aestistate is crafting, they're not really comparable

twilit arch
#

professional gear is fine for most normal crafting

#

and if you do want to get aesthete then base melds are fine too

#

only reason to penta meld is if you want to future proof for 5.4 crafted gear

raven burrow
#

idk, are these eden verse raids doable at 445 ilvl? also im super rusty, i cant do my rota atm without not watching my skills and get hit by one or two aoes

warped nest
#

pentameld aesthete currently also helps crafter to make HQ items with fully NQ materials

twilit arch
#

normal mode raids are casual content

warped nest
#

this helps them save money in the long run

twilit arch
#

they're not hard at all

faint flare
#

As long you meet the minimum ilvl to enter

#

You can do it

twilit arch
#

^ yep

warped nest
#

especially useful for the new tier of DoW/M coming in 5.4

gloomy mortar
#

I haven't finished Shadowbringers, so I can't gather mats for Neo-Ish gear, so I have to buy the mats. To buy the mats and craft, it costs about 90k and there's no guarantee that you can make it HQ with just Dwarven Mythril gear. To just buy the HQ Neo-Ish gear costs about 150k.

raven burrow
#

whats the min ilvl for the 480 gear drop raid?

twilit arch
#

i455 so you're 10ilvls under

warped nest
#

hence my recommendation on getting a HQ neo-ishgardian weapon

raven burrow
#

hmm okay ill buy a piece or two of neo and try to do that

#

thanks

gloomy mortar
#

EL5 how you get Aesthete gear. There are no online guides out yet

faint flare
#

Craft it

warped nest
#

with your mix of facet/dragonsong gears that are somewhat melded

#

you craft it

gloomy mortar
#

Can you buy it? Or are the prices ridiculous

faint flare
#

Yes and yes

warped nest
#

ridiculous

faint flare
#

Since it literally just came out

#

Prices will be high

#

Extra high

warped nest
#

like 5 days ago

gloomy mortar
#

Do you think you can craft Aesthete gear with just Dwarven Mythril gear?

faint flare
#

Hellllllllll no

warped nest
#

don't think so

faint flare
#

You'll be way under the minimum required stats

gloomy mortar
#

What about Facet gear?

warped nest
#

these high difficulty recipe have minimum stat to gate players off

faint flare
#

You'll need melds on facet

warped nest
#

yes

faint flare
#

And food

#

And HQ mats depending on stats

gloomy mortar
#

Can you make Facet gear with Dwarven Mythril gear?

faint flare
#

Yes

warped nest
#

we said yes

faint flare
#

Need some melds

warped nest
#

oh you meant what about facet gear (can i make aesthete with facet)

gloomy mortar
#

Yes

mossy flower
#

so im lvl 54 how hard is gil farming gonna be for me

faint flare
#

Crafter progressin is basically Dwarven > Scrip (can skip) > Facet > Aesthete

warped nest
#

ok... here's the deal, if you aren't that into crafting and are just trying to test the water, you can technically wait for 6.0

twilit arch
#

professional with food+tea barely meets the requirements

#

so can probably do it with lightly melded facet

warped nest
#

6.0 level 81/83 gear will be the easiest to get after you have your dwarven stuff

#

aesthete can potentially last you wayyyy into lvl 87-90 depending on how hard you meld them, but that cost a lot of girl gil

#

lol, girl

leaden ginkgo
#

is tonberyy a good server for australians?? is it active??

signal mist
#

I made an alt for my sister and now the little dot is under my hotbar instead of in the middle of the screen. Is there a way to fix it?

remote lintel
#

recalibrate it

gloomy mortar
#

I make about 2million a week just selling mid-level gear on the MB with just 2 retainers. Is that a lot? People have said that you can make a lot more selling level 80 3-star food. True?

faint flare
#

You have instructions uptop to move it

wintry chasm
#

That for ground based aoes? Just do the L1 + right stick to move it

#

@leaden ginkgo Tonberry/Kujata are the main English speaking JP servers yes

twilit arch
#

@leaden ginkgo tonberry is pretty populated with aussies yeah, with kujata being the spill over server

warped nest
#

and what vinyl said is useful too, there are additonal instructions on the top-center of your screen

polar depot
#

I will repost my question for help because it's really important i cannot play this character and i don't know how to fix it :

i need some help, i cannot conect with my character, Farys Mana on the louisoix server, i'm at limsa lominsa and i started the quest about the Housing but i go the Mist at the lower Noscea, but I clicked on the name of a resident to test and now I can no longer connect with my character, the game close by itself

warped nest
#

teaching you how to move it and reset it to default position

leaden ginkgo
#

ok which one is better out of the two? tonberry im guessing

signal mist
#

That dot is for aoes and pet placement but for some reason is not in the middle of my screen.

gloomy mortar
#

Put another Miquote on the Barbie!

signal mist
#

How do I recalibrate it?

warped nest
#

read what Vinyl said

remote lintel
#

at the top

#

it says instructions

warped nest
#

use the skill, but don't confirm placement, look at the top center of the screen

faint flare
#

Move with L1 and right stick

twilit arch
#

if you can get on tonberry, then i'd go there but they're both on the same datacenter so you'll be able group up with people from tonberry even if you're on kujata

leaden ginkgo
#

ah aight ty

twilit arch
#

the only con is that you can't join a free company on another server

wintry chasm
#

@gloomy mortar that's okay and of course it depends on what item and server and time as to how much you make selling what but you could be making more money, if you really tried and found a good market you could do 6x that but I would maybe expect 4 mil typically if you were keeping up with constantly selling stuff

tired tapir
#

Are there any places I can find a tank/healer to level through dungeons with as a DPS in return I will do the same when they level a dps?

warped nest
#

there should be a recruitment-light channel on our left in this discord channel listing, parked under FFXIV RECRUITMENT group

#

you might be able to find someone there
