are glamour prisms hard to come by? im not sure if i want to keep em for better gear or just use it now
they're very easy to come by. You can buy them on the marketboard pretty cheap, or spend Grand Company seals on them if you have lots of those
Easily purchased for gc seals
alright, thanks
Im new player are Leves and fates along with dungeon spamming fastest way to level? or Palace Of The Dead
Leves and Fates aren't especially fast, you can use them as filler while you're waiting in queue
there's also Squadrons to level up fast, if you've unlocked them in your Grand Company
as far as we know there aren't any terrain effects on speed
It's you lol
except for that goo in Thousand Maws
I have not unlocked Squadrons is there a level req?
did they make aug ironworks instabuy?
I heard squadrons sucks for dps good for tank or is that bs
Yes. Splendor vendors
just ironworks or other poetic stuff too?
I think the other stuff is in Kugane
the other Poetic sets are the same, you can only buy the augmented version now
ohh thanks
@modest tiger is your error similar to this?
uh-huh
@modest tiger Do you have an antivirus? if so, turn it off, do you have your Windows Firewall on? if so, turn it off
@finite topaz Ah sec,
it worked, I thought, you said to me "Windows Defender"
I didn't try Windows Firewall, when I tried this, it worked
Thank youu so muchhh
No problem
Are you doing free trial?
I bought starter edition from steam sir,
Okey, I am filling my informations
.
@modest tiger no need to fill me up on every detail, im just a player like you, i dont work for Square Enix
Just take care, enjoy the game when you get to play it
how do i remove items from armoire? i click on it and it says "there are no items to display" even tho when I isearch it says ""item in armoire"
how do i remove items from armoire? i click on it and it says "there are no items to display" even tho when I isearch it says ""item in armoire"
@noble current eh? can i get a screenshot?
Also make sure you are selected remove from armoire and not put on to armoire
Yeah go to the other tabs in the right menu
maybe i am confusing armoury chest with armoire?
No
i checked all tabs
Yes
weaving is moving before the cast time is finished but still casting spells, right?

No
Weaving is doing skills in-between the gcd cooldown
So...for example you cast bio as Summoner which puts all your gcd skills on cooldown and during that cooldown you can use other skills that have independent cooldown in there
!faq weaving
Ready check and the timer are two options
in the party tab of you menu theres countdown
So just select "countdown" for the timer
?
not that I know of
I'm not entirely sure what you mean
something like /readycheck 20, then if everyone presses yes, a countdown of 20 starts
I haven't messed with ready check macros but I doubt that works
so, I'm a returning player and have an SMN on level 43, totally lost on the rotation. should I just start over with a different class?
An item doesn't get consumed upon being used for glamour right?
You don't really have a rotation that point. Put Dots on, spam ruin, use the egi attacks when you can @kind junco
if just using a glam prism no, if using glamour plates which saves a full set then yes
Blue summon is aoe, red summon is single target, and the orange one you don't really use too much except that it can give you shields
Hi. I am from SEA, which english server should I choose? Tonberry is not available atm.
Hello is there a beginner setup for controllers?
!status Tonberry
Bamboo you can wait for 7 hours and try again
@long wagon
That's when you can if the population is not congested
if you just tried at a later time it'll work. It's just based on total amount logged in at once
ruin or ruin 2?
I...don't know what time it is in JP but if you try at a quieter time it'll work Bamboo
You could try Kujata too
That's the next English server
Kujata is also the same unfortunately
I shall wait then
Since you can't move and cast and ruin 2 has no cast time
ok
Also ruin 2 is important for weaving
Is there any incentives to keveling other classes
ty for the explanation @wintry chasm , doin much better now after reorganizing my bars ๐
Fun. Experience different play styles. Questline stories. Helping friends by fulfilling a specific party role.
the fact that you can use them when you want to, there are unique storylines with them, doing all the role quests in Shadowbringers gives you an several optional cutscenes in main story and a final role quest that explains things... etc etc
Question, if game reset time for me is 11pm and I queue for a duty roulette at 10:50pm and finish at 11:01pm does that count the day before or it counts for the next day?
next day
ahh, ty
when there is written [completion] it means party of players that know the fight but still haven't cleared?
I feel cheated. Is it normal that the lvl 60 blue gear that you get from actually soing the quests is worse gear than the white gear availeble for sale in the armorer shop at the town ????
lvl 20 crafting, lvl 10 gather, but you need to be level 60 combat and completed HW @finite swift
and some of the post HW quests as well
crafted gear usually has slightly worse stats but more materia slots
Im talking about rhe lvl 60 blue job quest gear vs the white lvl 60 availeble
Oh sorry I misread
...how do you open the portable archive again? I forgot <.<
can I use normal skills that gives more collecting attempts on unspoiled nods?
nvm found it
Blue has 100ish stats ilvl 210 and the white has 130/150 with 2 open slots and ilvl 255
yea the artifact gear is the lowest tier of level cap gear there is
the job gear I mean
So...for example you cast bio as Summoner which puts all your gcd skills on cooldown and during that cooldown you can use other skills that have independent cooldown in there
@wintry chasm oh well, so it's what i always did. for example, ruin, energy drain and fester, ruin ecc
Job quests are mainly to get your skills
when it came out the job gear was good also we didn't have the ilvl255 gear from npc's then
thats also true
Can I use bountiful Yield on unspoiled nodes? Any gatherer in here?
Is it worth buying the i255 gear in total or should icjust wait till shire
wait till shire honestly
any beast tribes recommended to rep up first?

Depends. What level are you.
@simple shore pretty early, finished the ultimate weapon yesterday
Is there any website or way to see what kind of gear/appearances there is to collect in the game and where to collect it?
I heard there was nothing like WoW's appearance collection tab
Hi guys, ff14 is my first mmo, sorry if the question is dumb, but on non-mmo rpgs usually there are quests that needs to be completed before x point of story or they will be gone, there's any like that on the game?
wow lvling gladiator is so slow compared to caster xd
No @lyric bear
Nothing is missable (except seasonal event stuff)
Quests happen in their own time bubble
Nice, thank you!
is this something you can get or is it some old event item or similar?
called the ahriman chocker
woaw just realized
even though i play it from the philippines EU subfee is cheaper
i could add like $5 to the 30 day and get a 60 day subfee
Was the trial changed or is it still 15 days lvl 35?
Oh
Just been raised to lv60 with all heavensward content
No
I heard steam sub price is cheaper
what about stacking game time?
^
the one thing i have seen that is on sale is one of the digital collectors editions i belive
yeah it's cheaper in Russian steam or something
@onyx kiln the ahriman choker can only be obtained through special design/screenshot contests, as there is not one up at the moment, it is currently unobtainable
There are some annoyances with the steam version but hey
does anyone have a shiva unreal macro?
When?
huh, we can accept friend requests while on trial?
yeah
When
the code system is nice, i planned to buy the complete edition when i reached 60
you can sub through steam? i didn't see such option
i dont see nier raid or eden
I have a question
but my progress is so slow and didn't think i could make it to lv 60 before the 50% sale ended
You need to complete Shadowbringers base story then the unlocks appesr
How do i enable the Armory Bonus?
just bought the game now and keep the code till i can reach 60, lol
Its automatically enabled on any job under your highest level job @granite swan
btw a question, i've been receiving small chunk of exp at lv 52
unlocking a dungeon
@faint flare Im on lv 15 lancer and its no where to be found? ... i got a 60 smn
Its on monster kills
is it normal this way? or i am still post-arr moment where i need to wait till i reached hw to receive normal exp?
Ah, i thought id seen some ppl with it on their buff bar
Im having audio problems.hope someone can help me figure it out
Free company buff
any beast tribes recommended to rep up first?
anyone? I just finished the base game MSQ (up to ultimate weapon)
You need to complete Shadowbringers
question when the descript for enochian says it ends when umbral ice or astral ice ends, does it mean that once i switch between the 2 buffs enochian ends?
I completed shb
No
Then the unlocks have appeared in crystarium and Tomra
In the middle of nowhere and Word about Korma respectivelh
@acoustic osprey enochain falls off if the timer runs out before you switch between fire and ice
ooooh okok
whats the best gear for 80?
Eden verse Savage gear and upgraded allegory
You're missing the 2 side quest dungeons
is Eden and savage from raids?
The dungeons you're missing are in lower Eulmore and crystarium
why is it ??? ???
Eden Savage is the raod
different language?
No because the haven't unlocked them
No its cause the names are spoilers
why is it ??? ???
@patent citrus thats saying you haven't unlocked them yet
They think we have high iq
@obtuse sierra Not really any preference. The Beast tribes simply have some dyes and a couple unique crafting items.
we understand ???
so the relic weapons are the best right?
No
Is the SSS PLD dummy way overturned?
Does anyone know why im not getting any audio sounds?
Savage weapons are the best
Overtuned
How to get savage weapon
well as far as non-raid weapons go
Only got it to about 10%
Do eden Verse Savage
Grind Savge raids
I want it
But the relic is a good start
New Relic will be better once the grind for it comes out in about a month
How do I sync a dance? I am trying to join the people who are dancing but I can't figure out how I sync my dance movement.
as relics are upgraded

@obtuse lichen spam the emote until you line up
@marble dome Thank you!
You finished ShB but you are still missing 2 dungeons @kind eagle
and you didnt complete grand cosmos
Oh, that means you didnt finish MSQ as well
latest patch too?
yes
thats impossible
is the "gales" sky in limsa anything special (like the sky that lets you know when odin is in gridania)?
you need to have ilvl 475 to enter the latest tier of savage
@chilly fog no
no, gales is just normal weateher
Should I start the Thaumaturge class quest as it's available? I'm a lvl16 pugilist currently
ah ok
if you want
do you want to play thamaturge
im far from 2b raid too?
kind of
yeah I was hesitating between taking pugilist or thaumaturge at first
actually no
try both, pick a side
nier raid can be done after base shb
i recommend getting better gear beforehand
^
otherwise you will die from a light tap on the head
can you even enter nier with 435
you could enter rab at 300 iirc
Hello, I cannot dowloand the game, I just bought today. I have " Unable to downloand path files " error, can someone check me please?
Im 405
the screenshot you posted says 435
Not all
@modest tiger did you upgrade internet explorer
your average ilvl is 435
Just your average matters
so you can enter
that
@remote lintel No, sir
https://discordapp.com/channels/100463940835762176/287679207432257538/744588336982917141 the number in the upper right hand corner
Unfortunately
is your average ilvl
i need min ilv?
@modest tiger do it
i thought its all lv435
@remote lintel Okey, I am trying right now
sorry i didnt know
min ilvl for copied factory is 435
without spoiling, was I supposed to explore the maps before or after the seat of sacrifice?
I heard somewhere there are interesting things if you explore during a certain part of the 5.3 msq
but I don't know which part
Just a quick question, does anyone know if I NEED to clear floor 100 of PotD to be able to buy the kinna weapon? Or is having the 6 grips for the lesser version enough?
Only one I know of is someone posted a picture of a spectral Hildebrand. Never explained where they found it though.
thats in heroes' gauntlet
its in heroes gauntlet at a certain point
its random
from who
I guess I missed it. thanks for the replies ๐
no clue, didnt bother with exploring people's dialogue at that point
@remote lintel I dowloand Microsoft Edge, should I try dowloand again now sir? (Sorry for my English)
you just need to update internet explorer
Okey, I am on it.
anyone good with macros who could suggest what i could do to switch between HUD layouts?
you could just make a keybind instead of a macro, unless you're wanting to tie it to a gearset or something
if i demolish my private chambers in a fc (cant leave it before -.-) do i lose all the housing items?
you have to remove all items from your chambers first
no theres a housing enthusiast that holds all of your items in your fc room if you didnt get it out before leaving your free company
talk to them and you get them back
im confusion
the side quest that starts the unlock is called "Word about Komra"
in the housing area
eh...
like out in the mists/goblet/lavendar beds
oh
not in the house
can i remove all set housing items with him?
or where do i do that
i dont want to lose my stuff
if you have enough free inventory space, you can get everything that was in your fc room before it was demolished
@remote lintel My IE is updated sir, from before and it's still same issue for me.
otherwise you get everything out one by one
uhm it wasnt demolished, i just want to leave the fc cause its dead, but cant do this because of my room
then destroy room
... they have to remove all of the items from their room before they can demolish the room
like i said
where do i do this?
@modest tiger can try asking in #technology-discussion
i dont see any options to do it
go into your room and do /housing
@remote lintel Okey, thank you very much for help.
ah thanks @twilit arch
yeah trial account, so guess vendor xd
yeah the super low level materials you can safely vendor
the side quest that starts the unlock is called "Word about Komra"
@twilit arch Is it crystarium
no its in kholusia
At tomra, literally next to the aetheryte
i gotta say this game's leveling experience isn't as bad as other reviewers are making it out to be
It was just vastly improved
In the patch
Least for the first time through
The bonus xp you get for completing a dungeon for the first time is insane
Is the increase mount speed content locked ? Or can you target it to get it asap?
the first tier is gotten via msq (except for shadowbringers) so there's n o way to brute force that
Ah k
when can i change classes? before or after the first dungeon?
once you complete your lvl 10 class quest
Lvl 10
As mount speed isn't listed as far as I know. How much will it increase ?
Where to buy the subscription from?
Mogstation deals with that
Ty
What's the first time bonus for duties that aren't at level caps
is there a website to see the lowest tax city at the time?
First time Bonus is always Poetics
that's for level cap dungeons under 80
is this an emote or an actual pose you make when not moving?
how do you get em?
or /cpose
can also set it in the settings to cycle thru the various idle poses
oh thanks!
Gotta love when the average time for something goes from 10m ... its up to 35m now >.>
damn au ra gets all the pretty face and emote
You also do it by default after 5 seconds
au ra gang rise ๐
If you haven't set your cpose to the default pose
A lot of people also don't know you can set your weapon not be auto sheathed after battle
You can change how long it takes for you to cpose in the settings
As s Botanist, there seems to to be a skill that will make enemies ignore me.
Any workaround?
Why wouldn't you want enemies to ignore you
Sorry, seems not to be.
I do want that, excuse me.
I will try harder to type. ๐ฆ
!action sneak
it is
i tis
I swear I looked for that and didn't see it. Don't mind me, my brain just isn't working today.
It was hidden from their sight
It really did. In fact what happened is embarrassingly simple, I just didn't bother to scroll up in the skill list, what is even wrong with my head today?
Eh, don't sweat it. With 5.3 you don't even need to have it in your action bar.
How so?
it applies it automatically when you swap classes to botanist
I think thats only at like lv 20 or something tho
It's a level 27 trait
Ahh, My Botanist is not lv 27 yet.
and will reapply it on zone change. Something that was missing before
Not far short, mind.
I am stuck where I canโt find what quest I need to do next. It says my next msq is a time to every purpose but it says I need to do more crystal tower story line. Where do I go?
Do the crystal tower story.line
mor dhona
I just did the crystal tower, it was cool. And then I got a quest to do it all again. 
Gift of the Archmagus is ignorable
Whereโs the one after legacy of allag
ya dont need to do gift of the archmagus unless you're doing anima relic
even then you dont need to

Thank you, I suspected it might be, but I'll probably do it anyway just not as a priority. It wasn't that hard to pug my way through the raids.
So I've run Syrcus Tower twice now to completion and each time it still tells me I need to use the duty finder to enter Syrcus Tower, the quest never updates upon beating it
do MSQ fights get hard enough to make DPS realize it's not easy, or at least not as easy as people may be led to think?
Oof. Thus making anyone (me) who struggled with MSQ content feel real good. ๐
DW I'm not mad, I know I'm bad at the game.
there's still a half-dozen MSQ fights that I struggle with (across ARR and HW)
Now think of the common factor in each the fights
for which class skill is no substitute for mechanical skill
@hallow pagoda are you sure you did syrcus tower and not pharos sirius?
No
@faint flare Is that rudeness? It sounds like rudeness.
Its there a problem with the puppet bunker qeue? Or no one is doing it?
are you queueing as tank
Yeh
then that's why
24mans are pretty much the only place tanks lose on queue times
healer or dps is going to be faster
Oh damn
@hallow pagoda are you sure you did syrcus tower and not pharos sirius?
@marble dome positive
can you post a screenshot of duty finder window with syrcus tower selected?
do I need to complete the whole crystal tower series to continue in mq?
Yeah gimme a moment, running it a 3rd time
It's not that hard, I'm a very average player and managed to pug them all without problems
alliance raids are casual content
Can't Coral Pink dye be bought from the fashion report person
sigh
omfg 45 min wait and we fail this potd ... swear to god why cant we get a healer
if you wanna vent please use #general-discussion or #rants
If I'm sch and have an ast as coheal, should I sync up chain strat with div or fire it off 3rd gcd anyways?
do you get anything good from the nuts?
Divination should be coming out quicker these days so it should be naturally close together, depending on how many times they need to redraw for the second seal
Provided you wait 30s prepull
can you post a screenshot of duty finder window with syrcus tower selected?
@twilit arch
Ran it a 3rd time, still didn't register as complete
I have not, but I'll give that a go
Is there a guide for playing pld?

Wonderful
Use the commands in #kupo-bot-spam unless you're answering a question with it
You know how you can go through the gather log and miss the occasional thing while levelling? Does it make a difference?
Like filling the gathering log?
if you miss, you need better gear
Yes, is there a compelling reason to fill the log, please?
not really
unless you want to get the achievements for having gathered x amount of unique items
And well there's that ^
Logged out/in again, I'll try running the raid another time
Oh there are cheevos? Compelling reason unlocked. ๐
That's literally all I needed, just any kind of motivator to go back and grab the gaps.
does the MQ provide enough exp through all expansions till endgame ?
Yes
especially if you're only playing one job
When I was going through ARR there seemed to be times I needed to level between MSQ, did I do it wrong?
even probably if you're playing two
Maybe rarely need to do a daily roulette but it will laat you
@short sparrow either you're not on a preferred server, you were leveling multiple jobs...?
They changed the xp curve for story plus the bonus for doing dungeons the first time is ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT
because yes, so did I, but I was leveling like 3 alts as I went and not doing dailies
To the first, I'm not... to the second... I guess maybe, I'm not sure now if I was.
5.3 also adjusted exp
so with the changes, even on a standard world, shouldn't need to do that much outside activity
I'm actually pretty newly (couple weeks) back to the game after not playing since HW dropped.
To be specific HW just dropped when I last played and I tried to make it through the 2.x series of patches but back then my motivation died.
mood.
Through it now though, and back in the groove. BTW I know about mount speed but does anything improve on-foot speed at all?
peloton if you're physical ranged, fist of wind if you're mnk, and fleet of foot trait for ninja
and ofc there's sprint
but outside of those, no
Hehe, I was hoping for something while gathering.
Which I know is a bit of a wild hope, but still any minute spent walking is a minute not grabbing fruits.
sprint then, is your only option
Much as I expected. Thank you though.
So logging in/out didn't solve the problem so I'm just gonna abandon and redo the quest entirely
hi :>
i am a fc leader that is currently stuck on ideas for fc events lol
i was wondering what events does your fcs make ><?
Is there a PoTD Discord? 45 min wait for a failure is getting to be stupid
how well does the game run on a low end system
@primal ginkgo stormblood ex trials, maps, pvp
current content learning parties, sometimes
@regal summit try running a benchmark for ff14
how can i do that ?
you can see the scores i think 7000+ means it runs well
download one of ff14 benchmark from SE
thanks
i'll try this now thank you
where do i find the poesie stone trader for lvl 70
Rhaglr's reach, in the alcove northish of the aetheryte or in kugane, look for the blue sparkling bag
hello once again, im looking to pick up gnb (lv61 atm) but have no eq for it somehow. where do i get some? and is there a preferred method to get him to lv 80 rather quickly? my DRK and SAM are lv 80 with 490+ ilvl now
Ideally you want to grab the shire set, but it should have given you a coffer for left side gear
i havent played in a while and may have deleted or stored all gear somewhere unknown
is it impossible to get the aetheryte earring
Yes

total new player here, i heard some stuff about ffxiv being alt friendly or not needing any alts, can anyone elaborate on this?
how exactly do you do that?
by simply equipping the class weapon or using one of the saved gear sheets
Where do I get riding maps? I went to my grand company and cannot find any
you have to unlock and level each class individually though
some classes start at lv 50, some at 60
oh i see, that's very cool
but you need to reach that lvl with another class first to unlock them
how do you get a class weapon though? are some given to you early on or?
or do you have to unlock all of them
when you unlock the class you get gear for it
and better gear is unlocked via mainstory or dungeons
or can be bought in market
also theres class quests that give better gear at certain lvls
Btw to unlock a new class you need to speak with a person at the entry to that class's guild
the game pretty much got you covered until you reach max lvl
ah okay makes sense, thanks @idle coral @raven burrow
but for different types of endgame content you may have to grind for better gear obviously
alot of content comes with gear lvl requirements
and is locked
@keen fable they are from the hunt trader in the corner of the GC hall
@raven burrow i just started a couple hours ago, so haven't reached anything worthwhile yet but thanks!
i checked him too, he wasn't selling any
did you unlock the hunt
did you do a level 50 quest titled "let the hunt begin" that starts in your GC hall
f
2nd tier really isn that useful
As by the time you can start getting allied seals for it, you'll be able to fly
are all jobs viable late game/end game? or is it like wow where some jobs are heavily favored
!faq meta
all jobs are viable
How do we change the colors of glamour in glamour slates again? got me that rebel coat that would look great in Black
But some jobs get "replaced", like Lancer becomes a Dragoon and such...
that's not really replacing, since lancer isn't a job. its a class
(Couldn't remember a better example) (sorry got confused)
Im new to FFXIV and noticed Im getting a 100xp bonus - Should I just do MSQ or side quests as well? Im already hideously overlevelled
you should pretty much never be your base class once you hit lv30 and can get your job stone
ideally you should focus in doing your msq, as almost everything is locked behind doing it
MSQ is what you should mainly focus on, but also do the Blue side quests as they unlock content
Im just worried not doing side quests will mean im undergeared
the main side quests you should focus on doing are
as they unlocked things (though you can ignore "So you want to be X" as these are class unlocks or "Leves of X" as levemetes aren't too important)
no, msq will keep you decently geared
Regular side quest offer nothing of value
is there no miner jobquest after 70 or is the wiki not updated
Thanks guys โค๏ธ
nope, 70-80 is facet quests
there is none, there are crystalline mean stuffs however
which miner shares facet with botanist
so you'll have to choose which one you want to do the facet quests on
ah okay just making sure im not missing anything, jst got 75 so wasnt sure
so eureka syncs to ilvl 300, but inside eureka i can craft "eureka gear" above that ilvl, im assuming that this eureka gear will bypass that ilvl 300 limit?
I'll probably do it with bot since i have no idea what facets are
@twilit python no
the gear doesnt matter until you get the ilvl 390 elemental +2 gear
so farm the crystals but dont make any gear until i unlock the i390?
ok
just going to note that elemental +2 gear doesn't matter that much unless you're interested in doing baldesion
its not really that make or break ultimately for anything outside of BA
Btw I'm not smart (name says it all), so, I was wandering is the Discord thing that says what dungeon you're doing and your class/level actually implemented in the game or that's a mod of some sort? (sorry for interrupting)
like yeah it'll make your life a bit easier, but with the echo boost its not necessary at all
itss good for soloing
What's the best way to gear up a level 80 miner? and is it something i can start working on as a level 75?
its a mod for ffxiv https://github.com/goatcorp/FFXIVQuickLauncher/releases/tag/5.1.1 @idle coral
Hey
Thank you
depending on the prices of aesthete on your server/dataceneter, you could just buy that as its bis
So, the monthly payment depends on how many months u r paying, right?
The less months, the higher the price
is it normally over 1m+? i can get it pretty easily if its nothing too insane
i scored around 1900 on the benchmark, is this playable?
haven't looked at my own server's markets for the price, but from what i've heard its crashed pretty hard
like most pieces are below 1mil so probably could get the set for a couple of mil total
aesthete is the name?
yes
I assume i want HQ?
@leaden ginkgo ^
keep in mind that for standard, 90 days and 180days you're paying for all of that upfront
i would probably go ahead and buy it then because thats pretty cheap
unless you're really hurting for gil right now
I feel like I'm losing my mind. I can't find Scuroglow Aethersand. I've looked through every single menu option on multiple scrip exchange NPCs. I'm a level 80 crafter. Can anyone tell me where to look, or send me a screenshot?
im hurting pretty bad atm but i can just grind some money
ill just have to find some type of ore thats needed by alot of people
@twilit arch thanks
what should i do with my old gear? I don't need the gil. is there a way to break down into mats?
any ideas?
So, the difference between entrya nd standard is how many charcaters u can have?
Yes
namely, yes and the fact that you're force to pay month to month on entry
I think I would personally choose that option tbh
if you have a lvl 80 combat, i would look at selling phanta mats unless you need the phanta
Like month per month
Cause I am not really sure if I will be able to play each month
id keep the phanta for the neo ishgard augment
Anyone know of an ore thats in constant need? Idk what recipes are used often
Gonna try to grind the money for aesthete gear
24k each wtf
is it a rare?
Its beast tribes as well
@twilit arch so, I imagine switching servers is not really an easy task then
ah so you cant mine it?
hmm
@slender lotus scuroglow is under lvl 80 gatherer section. its not from crafter scrips
a lot of the stuff that's going to be selling well right now is the lvl 80 timed node stuff

where is the new custom delivery? I'm in the frimament but it's not there
Anything grindable i can mine while waiting on timed nodes?
did you complete all of the firmament side quests?
im doing them right now
need to complete those first before she'll be available to unlock
gotta ask would it be better if i did msq with a dps rather than a tank
i haven't been here since 5.21 how many quests is this gonna be
you could look at like palladium sand or electrum ore
since the new tsukuyomi weapons need palladium ingots
might also want to give molybdenum and cobalt a looksee since that's also needed in a few of the new primal weapons
Hey FC leads...I am trying to start a New FC and I am just wondering what are some successful ways you found of recruiting?
are mounts unlocked at a certain level?
'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.
actually the motorbike from fanfest is faster than the others
i suppose
After 5 hours i finally got the stupid 41-50 PoTD done ... atleast the floor 50 quest was worth it
Is the "First time dungeon exp" per job? or once per character?
character
Tyt
why do people sell stuff in stacks ima cry i stg
@twilit arch Thank you!!
what exactly is the sundry splendors npc for? (blue shiny bag) hes got almost nothing for me
They sell shire/scaevan items, however they require you to complete the final quest of that expansion to unlock. So shire requires you to complete the msq "Heavensward" for you to be able to purchase, and scaevan requires "Stormblood"
He also sells Ironwork stuff
yeah ironworks as well in the 3 starting cities, which require you to complete "The ultimate weapon"
wierd, ive done all msq and they barely have anything
make sure you pick the correct item level and class
does FFlogs need ACT still?
Yes
i can only choose between
It uses act to get the data
Okay and you need ACT and FFlogs up while doing a dungeon or ?
The other cities, kugane and ishgard, sell higher stuff
Just ACT
Then you use the Uploader to upload to fflogs
Okay I see.
I already have Ironworks set, is it worth it to me to get Augmented Ironworks? Seems a lot of poetics, and Carbontwine seems hard to get if I wanted to go the other way.
yeah thats all they sell is ironworks/shire/scaevan
You cant augment it anymore sol, cant get the augment items anymore
What would you say is the best way to level crafters from 70-80? Crystarium deliveries?
they're just intended to be a convenient means of buying those items without having to teleport to mor dhona/idyllshire/rhalgr's
Ishgard restoration and leves...crystarium deliveries are a 1 time thing
Or should I just keep going with Ishgard?
@faint flare well I see. But is it worth replacing the ones I have?
Aah
Eh, not really...too many tomes for 10 ilvl
since chocobo can't fly in trying to get my friend an other mount. what's the easiest mount to get in game?
after chocobo ofc
If you didn't.have ironworks already i would say yes
chocobo can fly
20 ilevel actually it seems, but I think your point is very accurate. ๐
all mounts can fly
no
No
And just flat added flying to the birb
oh wow
what vendors sell Soot dye? Really need it for a chest piece hnggggg
They shoulda left Chocobos unable to fly, it makes absolutely no sense >.>
only vendor that sells soot black is the ixali vendor
These car mounts are annoying to see
They shoulda left Chocobos unable to fly, it makes absolutely no sense >.>
@granite swan but.. funny yellow bird go brrrr
which requires you to be a crafter to unlock them
so why can i only choose between these?
I agree, I find the car and bike mounts kinda stupid when you see one in a forest ngl
if you're being dm'd by RMT bots please let the mods know in #discord-modmail
but hey this is the universe with immortal gods so what can I say? 
ff14 was never known for its immersive mounts
theres literally an infatable cartoon cat coming

hi guys, i've started playing this game 2 days ago and upon reaching lvl 53 with may PLD, i have hardtime killing mobs in duties, MSQ etc, and normal mobs could also kill me, what is the best way to get proper equipments on my level?
does fisher use the same armor as miner/bot? i assume they all can share armor
yep
mmk ty, so ill just need the asthete set for crafters and gatherers then im done i guess
nice
@foggy surge have you completed praetorium?
im sorry but what is praetorium?
what level is your main scenario quest
i see
its level 49
you can buy gear from the vendors for now
You did your lvl 50 job quest?
not yet, my job quest is still on lvl 45
i would recommend doing those
as the lvl 50 job quest will give you a coffer for i90 gear
which you'll want to get before you have to do castrum/prae anyway, should give you a bit of a boost in def/dmg
yeah it was a big spike
and then once you get done with praetorium, you'll have poetics which you can use to buy a better weapon/shield
If u been saving ur poetics u can further upgrade ur gear when u finish prae
when you switch classes does your lvl reset to 1?
i see, I'll focus on my job quest first then, thanks guys!
Job quests aren't optional
Your msq level and you class level are not the same @high sapphire
So when you start a new class
Your level on that class is what it starts on
what's the biggest axe i can glamour on my lalafell WAR?
Axe of the blood emperor is a good one
Genji Axe too
The current relic is decent as eell
@little swift so I'm level 14 arcanist rn and I want to unlock rogues and eventually ninja. if i do the quest to unlock rogues it'll start me at 10 presumably?
I did PoTD Floor 50, did the quest, but when i try to reset, it only mentions lv 1 instead of lv 1 or 50?
@little swift how would you level up again if you've already done the MSQs? is there another efficient way?
!faq altlvlguide
should be a Draw/Sheathe button when you try it on
you're awesome
yep just press z
even as tank the ques are looong xd
how do you make friends in this game?
You should look in a starter city for an FC (basically a guild), that is a great way to start meeting people and have people to run content with. You can also try #494379215420915712 to find a fc, and I think there's a subreddit for FCs.
I did PoTD Floor 50, did the quest, but when i try to reset, it only mentions lv 1 instead of lv 1 or 50?
@granite swan did you reset first and then try to enter again
No cause it kept saying 1, didnt wanna risk it lol
if you've completed the follow up quest outside of the potd instance
the next time you reset it should allow you to choose 51-60
regarding materia on multiple sets
if I'm sharing the same gear set, for example whm/sch
does a saved gearset keep the materia too
or do I need to remeld materia
@little swift ah cool, thanks
If you change materia from what you had saved it last, it says "set applied but materia changes couldn't be applied"
do I need to have spare tier 8s in my inventory so it can reapply the materia?
will it destroy t8s with the 40% retrieve rate?
Or just have melds that both jobs want
just keep in mind that retrieving 7/8s have a chance to fail
Yes
worst comes to worst you have a second set of gearthat you keep in your retainers
and you long swap them out
will probably be picking up scholar soon...but i'm close to BiS on WHM
Uhh... quick question. After finishing the quests for the 5.3 alliance raid, I have no idea where to view the collected data logs. Is there someone I'm missing?
Duty menu button > collection
there were 12? in the last raid and 11 in this one
Huh. Mind if you can list them all just in case I somehow missed some in my search?
Also, thank you!
https://pastebin.com/hHuayX10
@wraith thistle here's a pastebin of them and where they are. 11 of each
Pastebin.com is the number one paste tool since 2002. Pastebin is a website where you can store text online for a set period of time.
Thanks o7
hey i'm playing kinda cross server with friends on the same datacenter, but i got a question
from my understanding visiting other servers doesn't limit me too much right?
Correct
You wont be able to access mail or retainers or join guilds which is the main downsides
But otherwise no issue
i can always go back and forth for those
visiting took like 5 seconds to transfer. so that's a relief thanks
for crafting beast tribes should you accept the quest with highest level crafter? or doesnt matter?
Doesn't matter, the receipes are made to be done with the lowest acceptable level
So moogles are doable from 50
i see, i thought the rep reward went from 70 to 50 when i accepted on my lower crafter
oh i just realised guilds might be an issue. what do guilds do in this game?
nothing, just social
some small buffs and special gathering, not very important
guild storage? am i gonna struggle for endgame raids
is there server transfers if i really choose to want to change
Yes
paid?
ah welp ill get there when i get there
damn u know ur stuff lol
ty guys have a good one
hey, how can I get to Limsa Lominsa?? also for like 2-3 levels I can't find my own mark on the M minimap and I find that frustrating, any reason why that happens and how I can fix that?
If you didn't start in Limsa, you cannot get there until the story takes you there around level 15 MSQ.
it does take me there
the story quest level needs to be 15
are we able to get this emote in the game?
in which case you'll get the airship
i mean it tells me to go there
If you're on the quest, then you'll need to take the airship to get there.
where do I get one?
that's sitting isn't it? i think you have it
the story quest should give you a ticket i believe
only miqote get it

Gridina airships are at the adventure guild
The airship in uldah needs to talk to a elevator npc near the adventure guild
X10, Y10
For the elevator down to the airship
just beat heavensward. wanna level a paladin how should i be leveling lower level now without msq?
X 11, Y10. Its near the moogle mail
1-15: hunting log, fates, palace of the dead
ty
15+ daily roulettes and then highest level dungeons (barring 50/60/70, do the 47/59/69 dungeons instead)
@faint flare thank you, found myself there at last
Hullo how many tomes of phantasmgoria is required to upgrade 1 pc of neo ishgardian item to 490?
There's something I don't understand. Are all collectables able to be turned in for scrips?
Talking about gatherer collectables here
certain collectables, namely the empheral node items, are used only for aetherial reduction
Cuz I thought I collected a bunch of Dated Radz-at-Han Coins at some point and I remember not being able to find them
In the list
Oh
those are for custom deliveries
@soft jay anywhere between 300 to 700 depending on the item. Rains are 100 tomes each and each piece need different amounts
basically 3 types of collectables: house of splendors, custom deliveries, and aetherial reduction
Ohh so it's different.... Tks alot
What is aetherial reduction?
hey does everyone eventually get to old gridainia in the msq, i just reached level 10 and want to try out conjurer but i dunno if i should wait until i eventually get there naturally
Where you reduce certain collectibles down to Crystals and aether sand
yes, eventually you will be taken to gridania
Is frontline good exp
its decent exp, though i believe the frontline roulette is currently bugged and not giving daily xp bonus at the moment
really enjoying my first time through the MSQ on my free trial. I'm at level 47 rn, is there anything else I should do before I finish the MSQ?
Job quests
isnt the story like way loonger than lvl 50
for trial i dunno when it stops
right trial stops at 60 now i think?
Just before stormblood starts
@faint flare right on, been keeping up with my bard quests
Then you're good
What seasonal miscellany is the giant cone that shoots out streamers?
Which job is the easiest to make glamor prism?
@karmic niche I'd say carpenter, if you got a botanist retainer. Have it farm walnut logs all day, you get 5 prisms for 1 venture and 1k gp.
Oh ok, time to level up some carpenter
Some hw dungeons also drop clear prisms.
@karmic niche Iโd say Goldsmith. It only requires silver ingots, and you can gather silver ore easily in Gridania
From chests
Yeah... i can't get through HW stuff yet still stuck in ARR.... god is so long
I will do that
why is some greyed out?
