leaden ginkgo
#

Oh

I bought the complete edition off PSN, i cant do the free trial now?

faint flare
#

Nope, psn automatically applies the code unlike pc

scarlet sandal
#

Is it possible to by The Game and not register it and just keep playing the free trial until you want to register the code for the game

leaden ginkgo
#

Bummer

faint flare
#

If you buy on PC you get a code

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.

faint flare
#

Keep doing story

winged solar
#

so the story will also appear

#

in the MSQ?

#

the mount quest*

faint flare
#

Yes

winged solar
#

ok, very simple then

scarlet sandal
#

@elfin grove cropped summer indigo?

faint flare
#

Your tracker should also show it

scarlet sandal
#

I think they also made it mandatory to get them out now so you can't accidentally miss it

faint flare
#

Yep

#

Its mandatory to do

elfin grove
#

@scarlet sandal nothing with a smooth texture all the way through? Trying to combine it with my Southern Seas shirt and look like a specific character

scarlet sandal
#

There's a pair of pants I'm thinking of kind of but I can't remember the name

elfin grove
#

best man's slacks?

scarlet sandal
#

Squalls pants

winged solar
#

also, do i need to have any bought version of the game to get the one-time password so i can get the teleport spell?

faint flare
#

You get the teleport spell when you attine to another aetheryte

wintry chasm
#

^

winged solar
#

oh

faint flare
#

Which you should really be doing the first thing when you get to a new zone

wintry chasm
#

As for getting the OTP anyway I'm not actually sure but I would assume it doesn't matter if you own the game

faint flare
#

The Otp just gives you a free teleport location

elfin grove
#

@scarlet sandal ah. Unfortunately, I'm looking for super plain slacks. Squall's got extra belts on his thigh

open ember
#

Okay this is a odd question. But. My friend is angry because he doesn't get comms? And he thinks that only female characters and healers only get comms

#

And I'm like? No? Its not?

faint flare
#

Healers and tanks typically get them

open ember
#

Healers do get more comms but there are other ways if very comms

faint flare
#

Probably slightly more healers

#

Definitely not genders

open ember
#

I'm a mentor on primal and he thinks my comms are illegitimate because I play healer and female

keen fable
#

I was gonna say, I usually get comms and the female characters don't

#

Just cause I play healer

granite swan
#

i tend to give it to healer unless they suck, then i give to tank :p

open ember
#

He also doesn't say anything in chat

#

No hi or bye

granite swan
#

Sometimes the lil sprout does get you comms though when you run with non sprouts

scarlet sandal
#

Be a ranged or magic DPS who actually LBs a big mob and you'll get a com

granite swan
#

Everytime ive LB i get a lecture so i never use it lol

scarlet sandal
#

That depends how are you using it

open ember
#

He just thinks he should fantasia to female to get comms

keen fable
#

interesting

open ember
#

And I'm like? That's not the case ir solution

keen fable
#

tell him to play a healer

faint flare
#

^

scarlet sandal
#

Why does he care about commendations anyway

open ember
#

And now he's angry at me

faint flare
#

And to calm the ego

open ember
#

Because he thinks my mentor status is illegitimate

keen fable
#

Why does he want comms so bad?

simple shore
#

I mean, in fairness, mentor status is irrelevant

open ember
#

I consistently try to help people that's why I aimed for mentor

simple shore
#

There's a reason why mentor's are meme'd on

open ember
#

No you're right

granite swan
#

@scarlet sandal ive used it 3 times on final boss dungeon since no one else was and ppl always complained ...

Can you get access to Coerthas Western Highlands in ARR?

I'm sad now

I just td him to calm down and come back when he's not angry

#

That means it’s part of the zodiac relic chain

#

Getting that angry over a video game

faint flare
#

Which are long grindy ass quest chains

simple shore

idk, if someone actually got mad over comms and mentor status

it looks pretty

i'd blacklist them and move on

Thats basically their purpose

For old relics

Depending how you're prepared, over a week

And you need to go through alot of hoops

Like books...

thank you

weary burrow

why does the hotbar not remember my job setup when i go back to it, is it optional?

#

nvm

it does

xD

zinc kelp
#

Hello! for those who already did the yokai event, how does that work? from my understanding is this, please let me know if im right or wrong, english is not my first language.

  1. You grind random fates (except mhordona, coerthas and shadowbringer maps) with your watch equip to earn medals, then use these medals to buy yokai from gold saucer right?

  2. to get the weapon, you can only get the legendary medal by summoning the minion associated with it and grinding specific fates (one which can be found on yokai compedium?)

  3. so that means, for the medals used to buy the minions, you can grind any fates, but the legendary medals to buy the weapon, you can only grind specific fates?

turbid crystal
#

so we got a free mount from our Grand Company at lv20, does FFXIV has a concept of epic mount like WoW? where regular mount speed is 40% increase and Epic mount speed is 60% increase?

faint flare
#

No

#

All mounts are the same speed

#

Mount speed is determined by zone

#

Your speed increases in a zone as you do story

https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_GB/product/565249/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition-collector-s-edition-pc-download

If I buy this edition do I get all the rewards from all the previous collectors edition?

wintry chasm
#

No

#

that's just the base game and expansions

#

no collector bonuses

obsidian patio
#

If it does it’s only be ShB collectors

wintry chasm
#

if you buy that you can digitally upgrade to the collector's version on mogstation

surreal geyser
#

You can pay for a Collecter edition upgrade for each thing though

#

kinda pricy at this point though I think?

wintry chasm
#

Wait

#

Sorry

strange coral
#

That links is the collector's complete edition though

wintry chasm
#

I didn't read that whole thing

#

Yeah that's all the collector stuff

#

My bad

strange coral
#

Even says it has everything in the features section

wintry chasm
#

I just read "complete edition" and assumed

#

orz

#

That is indeed the entire game + all the collector items

#

(not bad for 35)

surreal geyser
#

So while I was reading on changes from the time I was away, I see they added flight to the ARR zones? Did they make the zones bigger?

sick hornet
#

Okay that's what I thought

wintry chasm
#

No Castor

#

People just complain ARR is slow so they made flying there to make it quicker + people kinda wanted it anyway?

faint flare
#

Same size but you can get to more areaa

strange coral
#

They made tweaks to the ARR zones to accommodate flying, but no major changes

sick hornet
#

a lot of people told me it didn't come with all the collectors edition but that's what it says, hope i don't get jebaited

surreal geyser
#

Ah small shame. I always hoped they would sorta stitch the tinier zones together. No bigge though

wintry chasm
#

a lot of people told me it didn't come with all the collectors edition but that's what it says, hope i don't get jebaited
They probably did the same as I did and just read as far as "complete edition"

patent citrus
#

wait, you will get all the collector edition from previous expansions as well 🤔

sick hornet
#

Yes

#

for 30 bucks

leaden ginkgo
#

SE support is awful

sick hornet
#

which is a crazy good deal for me

wintry chasm
#

tbh I didn't even know that the Complete Edition even had a collector's edition

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

sick hornet
#

I feel so lucky

wintry chasm
#

You are lucky

patent citrus
#

yeah in AU that also available, one person mentioned that it's not available for US area

surreal geyser
#

SE support seem to be fairly nice, just doing their best on limited staffing im sure

patent citrus
#

sorry for making people misunderstood T_T

strange coral
#

Yea I could never find the NA version of collector's complete for some reason.

patent citrus
#

but NA got all the merchandise 🤦‍♂️

#

I don't think EU store has merchandises at all

surreal geyser
#

Oh cool they finally added a shopping cart into the mog station

#

As if I needed more temptation to spend money tho...

faint flare
#

The new shop is alot cleaner

surreal geyser
#

You're not kidding

remote lintel
#

does the shb inn room change or something?

faint flare
#

No but occasionally you may get visitors

#

Of...some variety

remote lintel
#

just like

#

in my room?

faint flare
#

Mhm

#

Just hanging out

remote lintel
faint flare
#

Watching

remote lintel
#

can i keep leaving and reentering to get them to spawn

faint flare
#

Believe so

surreal geyser
#

Oh no..I forgot I actually did buy gold wallpaper for my house back then. Returning after so long is bittersweet.

granite swan
#

So is there ever a time we get something we can customize? The Inn room is kinda boring and housing seems anti newbie

scenic orchid
#

Does Hide ever get faster? Some class upgrade later in levels? Only level 15 currently.

remote lintel
#

apartments are cheap

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Hide is always slow

granite swan
#

@remote lintel Where are apartments? later in MSQ or something?

faint flare
#

Apartment and housing

#

All part of the housing districts

granite swan
#

huh, i only saw houses

faint flare
#

There's a building in there that has apartments

granite swan
#

granted i didnt explore much cause i didnt know about apartments lol

surreal geyser
#

In each housing district there should be a sort of "Communal housing" type thing

granite swan
#

ooh ill give it a check

surreal geyser
#

you basically just go there and buy a small room

half kraken
#

Is the shb allied beast tribe quest unlocked after the current 3 beast tribes?

faint flare
#

Yes, and in a later patch

leaden ginkgo
#

I've emailed SE detailing how i've done everything said in the FAQ for multiple days to get rid of error i2501 and they just forwarded me to the FAQ again, how bad can your customer service be

#

I think they hardlock old accounts to force you to buy the game again

surreal geyser
#

Generally in service desk scenarios like that Tier 1 support will pretty much be stuck following a script. Knowledge article says send a FAQ thats really all they do

leaden ginkgo
#

I've waited 25 hours as I was told and still got the same fucking error reeee

jolly sorrel
#

I fully agree on the quality of SE's customer service, but I don't think this channel is the place to vent

surreal geyser
#

It's not Ideal though since with covid you cant get direct support.

leaden ginkgo
#

I fully agree on the quality of SE's customer service, but I don't think this channel is the place to vent
@jolly sorrel

Is there anywhere else where someone can tell me what to do?

#

seems there's no answer to this tbh

jolly sorrel
#

I agree, we can totally try to help here though I'm not sure what to do either. It really does suck, best we can do is google a crapton. I just meant that the ranting part should go in #rants so this place stays for help

granite swan
#

Wouldnt i2501 be more a tech channel thing anyway?

surreal geyser
#

The issue seems to be related to payment processing and a mog station issue

#

So not sure that a tech channel could help much. Seems like a back end problem

granite swan
#

oh i thought i2501 was the connection one

leaden ginkgo
#

it's a hardlock they use to prevent you from purchasing anything

#

antifraud system just targeting everyone

granite swan
#

ah

tame mirage
faint flare
#

Busy

#

It stops tells and invites and trades

surreal geyser
#

Those kinds of things are usually harder to fix on the T1 side of things. most likely with their limited support they dont have anyone to get on a bridge with the processor. If its a true multi user issue you may just have to sit tight.

craggy pivot
remote lintel
#

sell those

granite swan
#

Unless your on free trial :p dont wanna gilcap and gain nothin heh

jolly sorrel
surreal geyser
#

which phone support is closed for the foreseeable future.

leaden ginkgo
#

my account is from 2017 and I never used it since them, that's enough to hardolck it, I think i'll have to buy it again

leaden ginkgo
#

chat is down too

#

I was in chat earlier today

#

Twice even

leaden ginkgo

what

forest crown

So I started playing the trial about 2-3 weeks ago and have a summoner up to level 42. It wasn't until I was like level 35 that I realized I had -just- missed the cut for creating a preferred character with the Road to 70 buff. At this point, I'm wondering if I should ahead and start a new character to get the 100% exp buff, but I'm reluctant to have to go through all the MSQ, Duty unlocks, etc. I've already done with my summoner. Anyone know how long the preferred servers usually sick around? Am I going to be missing out on 100% for like months if I don't restart on a new char?

leaden ginkgo
#

send me now @surreal geyser pls

surreal geyser
#

yea, had my token removed from my old account and had to go back cause I needed my password reset

boreal ivy
#

new player here, My armory chest is now full, what are my options? Is sell the old pieces okay?

remote lintel
#

@forest crown if youre already pretty far into the story and dont want to do it again then dont

#

the buff isnt earth shattering

jolly sorrel
#

The 100% bonus seems like it is a lot, but in the long run it doesn't really save you a lot of exp. At level 70 with the buff you'd be level 65 otherwise. At level 80 with the buff you'd be level 79 if you never had it.

granite swan
#

@forest crown I think its bare minimum 90 days? and would only take 1-2 days to get back to 42

surreal geyser
karmic niche
#

Sell em

tame mirage
#

on steam I cannot slow the dialogues with shift-tab how to I make them stop going so fast

surreal geyser
#

Actually lemme send directly

leaden ginkgo
#

just hit 52 with ast now its telling me i cant queue for the duty roulette
keeps telling me "Unable to register. Two or more duty requirements unmet."

karmic niche
#

If they are common quality just sell it to vendor

median locust
#

Which duty roulette

leaden ginkgo
#

50/60/70 dungeons

median locust
#

That means you need to meet the requirements for at least 2 duties in the roulette

remote lintel
#

you dont have enough lvl 50 dungeons

median locust
#

Meaning your item level is too low if you have more than one

leaden ginkgo
#

Someone just told me that at class quest 50, you get an armor set that is level 90 with lvl 50 equip requirement, is this true?

#

ah, figured lol
time to go buy gear
thanks (:

granite swan
#

Revenents Toll will unlock 4-5 lv 50 dungeons if uve done the normal ones

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo yes

karmic niche
#

Yes

#

90+

fierce cobalt
#

Just note it's item level 90, item level and required level will now start to drift

karmic niche
#

I mean is easy to get 90

craggy pivot
#

i now interested also

leaden ginkgo
#

oh okay so they wont be the same anymore starting at level 50?

craggy pivot
#

what is preffered character

keen fable
#

how do i defeat the magitek vanguard in castrum centri

fierce cobalt
#

Yep Dawn, at high end item levels goes to 400-500ish

keen fable
#

it's invulnerable to everything

jolly sorrel
#

If you create a new character on a world that is "preferred", you get a 90 days exp bonus

fierce cobalt
#

While the level cap is still 80 lol

craggy pivot
#

oh no ill pass

#

thanks for info

strange coral
#

@keen fable Pay attention to what the npcs are telling you.

jolly sorrel
#

And indeed, from level 50 onwards "item level" and "level" start to drift apart.

keen fable
#

hmm ok

fierce cobalt
#

The exp bonus is 2xp until 70,pretty strong

jolly sorrel
#

This happened because level 50 was the cap, but new content was still being released. By the time we could get to level 51-60, the item level was already at i130

#

The 100% bonus seems like it is a lot, but in the long run it doesn't really save you a lot of exp. At level 70 with the buff you'd be level 65 otherwise. At level 80 with the buff you'd be level 79 if you never had it.

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh okay, thanks for the explanation @jolly sorrel @remote lintel @fierce cobalt 🙂

neat stratus
#

which jobs uses which gear? in case of striking maiming slaying etc

remote lintel
#

striking = samurai monk

#

maiming = drg

#

slaying is uhhh

median locust
#

All STR melee

remote lintel
#

slaying is accessories

median locust
#

so all except NIN

remote lintel
#

fending is tanks, casting is caster, healing is healers

Thanks for the advice on the exp buff, all

Using Fantasia potion for first time, does Au Ra have helmet issues like hrtothgar does?

faint flare
#

No

#

Its only Hrothgar and Viera

fringe lotus
#

ok nice! I really dig the look of hrothgar but the no helmet and hunchback really annoy me lol

jolly sorrel
#

Oh, they can't wear helmets? I haven't tried them yet

remote lintel

their heads are differently shaped

#

and viera have big ears

the 490 loot from puppets bunker is weekly right

faint flare
#

Yes

ionic hazel
#

or just the coin

I figured they'd just clip the ears through or something

The gear, coin and cluster is weekly locked

So I picked ramuh since its on the same data center as tonberry (friend there) but I wanted the pref world bonuses, am I kinda out of luck if I want to find more people to play with?

No, cause everything is cross server

Can i skip 😄 ?

And you can world visit tonberry as long as you're on its data centre

#

Yes you can skip credits

#

Is it all the ppl who played back in 1.0?

ionic hazel
faint flare
#

Yes

jolly sorrel
#

I can't remember, I think its only those who kept subscribing even after they announced they were going to scrap the game?

fierce cobalt
#

Huh, cool nod I guess

surreal geyser
#

I almost wish I could have been back there for 1.0, it was a janky mess but it would have been fun to see

fierce cobalt
#

Well oof to anyone watching all of that thinking it would take 10 mins lol

jolly sorrel
#

I used to RP a lot back in 1.0. If anything it made for a great chatroom with nice visuals.

#

That's like, 10 years ago? Damn this game is starting to get old

surreal geyser
#

I thought when City of heroes revived it would hold my attention kinda in the same way, but it did not unfortunately

#

I heard the credits were like a hour.

do gemstone traders have time-varying shop items?

surreal geyser
#

Honestly with 10 years and a new set of consoles coming out I wouldnt be shocked if a new MMOFF was in the pipe

granite swan
#

A Realm Revitalized :p

jolly sorrel
#

XIV being the cash cow it is? I would be shocked if they would create their own competitor

surreal geyser
#

Well they did the same with 11 and 14

jolly sorrel
#

FF11 was long beyond its peak when they made 14 as its replacement, I do believe.

surreal geyser
#

Of course when I say in the pipe I mean 5 years development at a minimum from now. Kinda like a destiny1-destiny2 situation

jolly sorrel
#

Hmn. Well, fair.

sly willow
#

the restriction of the second shb raid tier hasn't been removed right? it's still 1 item per week?

surreal geyser
#

They would probably try to do something more action oriented like blue protocol

outer plank
#

@sly willow yes

#

with the exception of the weapon token

#

thats still 1 a week

#

but good news is that its now 4 tokens

#

instead of 7 now

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.

Glamour Dresser FAQ

"What is the Glamour Dresser?"

The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.

"How do I use it?"

In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".

When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save".

The $40 FFXIV Shadow Bringers Standard Edition comes w/ the base game, all the DLC and a 30 day subscription, correct?

I’m spending majority of my online time making sure I finish daily and weekly things and as a result I barely have any time left to advance in MSQ at a proper pace. Someone tell me that what I’m doing is very wrong and I should focus on getting to 60 (free trial cap) first, rather than minmax GC dailies, Beast Tribe dailies, Gold Saucee challenges/weekly MGP income, etc?

#

Just looking at the MSQ amount of quests I’m still like 40-50 quests away from start of HW and my DRG is close to 57

proper cipher
#

Should generally focus MSQ first and most of the side stuff can be done once at max level and caught up

fallow juniper
#

Because all lvl 50 content becomes “obsolete” when I’m as far as I can be in MSQ, right? What’s the point in making sure all my DOH/L’s are are caught up aswell with the use of GC dailies?

proper cipher
#

It's the way i intend to do it at least. With the roullettes flung in

remote lintel
#

beast tribes are mostly for mounts, minions, etc

fallow juniper
#

Yet here I am spending hours on a daily basis gathering mats from all over to make sure I get all the GC hand ins done every day

remote lintel
#

GC turn ins are mostly for leveling crafters/gatherers

proper cipher
#

The old content is mostly for some of the rewards now. Or glamours.
If you're not enjoying it don't do it. It's not required for anything unless you want to level those classes

fallow juniper
#

Yeah but those take such a long time I’m experiencing, at least 2-3 hours per day I spend on finishing those

remote lintel
#

then dont do them?

fallow juniper
#

I feel like I’m missing out too much if I dont do them

remote lintel
#

on gc turn ins?

#

its just exp

fallow juniper
#

Opportunities

remote lintel
#

daily quests and stuff arent really "opportunities"

#

since theyre repeatable every day

proper cipher
#

If you've done them a few times then you've done them infintely they don't particularly change

remote lintel
#

the bluequest are way more important

fallow juniper
#

Imagine farming a mount which is only possible on a weekly basis, and you miss out on 2 weeks in a row, wouldnt that feel like a missed opportunity?

granite swan
#

If the mount had a really huge drop chance yes, if its got an absurdly small one, no

remote lintel
#

i mean your beast tribe progress is saved

proper cipher
#

If you're going for that sure. If you're just doing daily rubbish then that's different

leaden ginkgo
#

Can you only do fishing in diadem after level 53?

#

It seems like the spots are cloudtops

#

and i cant cloudfish till 53

fallow juniper
#

Yeah I dont know, I know I shouldnt be minmaxing in “temporary content” but for some reason I am

granite swan
#

I seriously wish i had kept going with the story after finishing ARR ... so much garbage between ARR and HW that im regreting it lol

remote lintel
#

except its not temporary content

#

because the rewards are always there

proper cipher
#

If you desperately want that mount. then something else is going to be sacrificed if you're doing it "because" then you should only do it if you enjoy it

remote lintel
#

it would just take you longer to get to

leaden ginkgo
#

how do i get achievement certificates?

remote lintel
#

the only temporary content in this game are events

faint flare
#

You get 1 certificate every 50 achievement points

granite swan
#

@leaden ginkgo talk to the achievement guy in gridania

fallow juniper
#

Hmm time for a change of mindset then starting tomorrow... full-on focus on MSQ

remote lintel
#

again the blue quests are way more important because they actually unlock things

#

such as raids

leaden ginkgo
#

i did and i dont know how to exchange my points

fallow juniper
#

Yeah I’m picking up all of those along the way

faint flare
#

You automatically claim your certificates when you talk to him

keen fable
#

Is there a way to get more vesper bay aetheryte tickets?

leaden ginkgo
#

ooooh

fallow juniper
#

It’s just the GC stuff that is distracting me too much

keen fable
#

other than the 3 quests that give them

faint flare
#

Again, 1 certificate per 50 points

remote lintel
#

GC stuff is just for exp

fallow juniper
#

Those huge exp bonuses on the side are so tempting

leaden ginkgo
#

thank you

remote lintel
#

when you get to post-HW theres an entire area dedicated to power leveling crafters

#

and gatherers

#

which makes the GC turn ins almost obsolete

#

you can go from 20-80 in a day

surreal geyser
#

Really?

fallow juniper
#

Well call me crazy but I plan on leeching of the free trial for a while longer

remote lintel
#

yes

surreal geyser

Thats awesome

remote lintel
#

you can access it in the free trial

surreal geyser
#

Doing crafting leves used to suck so much

So accessible at 60?

#

yes

Interesting

post-HW is part of HW

for GC captain, do you need to run 5 different dungeons in a command mission or you can run 5 times the same dungeon?

fallow juniper

Wish I knew a week earlier before I wasted hours leveling all DOH’s and DOL’s simultaneously from 35 to 50

remote lintel

thus far I ran 3

Thanks @proper cipher and @remote lintel for helpful feedback and tips

Hey! I have a friend going to start the free trial. I’m working through HW’s MSQ. Is there a way I can help them through ARR’s MSQ?

remote lintel

just party with them?

You can party with them and do the dungeons

Are blue magic actions not accepted anymore in /micon ? The in-game "Text Commands" say it is. But whatever blue magic spell I use as in /micon "Loom" blueaction or similar, it won't show anythying? Was this removed recently?

worthy sinew
#

If I started an alt could I do the MSQ’s with a friend? Or is that strictly solo only?

rapid kettle
#

Or do I have to unblock BLU actually? (Now that I think about it)

Does anyone know which tab in the unending journey I can rewatch custom delivery cutscenes

i want to continue through MSQ, although the game doesn't let me, the "My Little Chocobo (Maelstrom)" quest is obtained under some circumstance i didn't really understand, how do I get that currency that will let me do that quest?

by doing the next msq

winged solar
#

wdym 'next'

twilit arch
#

what's your current main scenario quest

winged solar
#

sylph-management

twilit arch
#

then you should have 300 grand company seals

fluid wren
#

@twilit arch it says that i cant use additional services on a free trial account

twilit arch
#

yeah...you kind of need to own the game first before you can make use of the digital upgrade

remote lintel
#

you can't upgrade a collectors edition of something you dont have

fluid wren
#

oh i thought the collectors edition came with the base game too

granite swan
#

only for Eu it seems

twilit arch
#

no

#

i think you're mistaking collector's edition for the complete edition

granite swan

Doesnt EU have the Complete Collectors Edition for 38 whatever they use tho?

hey guys, im considering moving my gaming to a different room in my house. Ill be going from wired 90gbs to wifi 30gbs. i know with shooters i cant deal with that speed. has anyone noticed having issues with this game at similar speeds?

remote lintel
#

@tidal yarrow by assigning specific locations for each person

#

and its 2 less people to coordinate since the tanks dont participate

surreal geyser
#

Oh wait, just saw theres a free version. My bad

quaint forge
#

I heard New Adventurer status won’t last long, is that true?

halcyon glen
#

it lasts for as long as you want it to

surreal geyser
#

isnt that only to a certain level?

tidal yarrow
#

yeah but like.. how do the 2 dps deal damage while doing tri. i can't have the mechanic in my mind I don't get it

twilit arch
#

Sprout status lasts for 168hrs played and completion of the main scenario quest "A Requiem for Heroes"

remote lintel
#

the melee are next to the boss and the ranged are farther away?

tidal yarrow
#

and this party just doesn't fill it's last spot so I can't trypanicdesu_hc

quaint forge
#

I prefer to keep it unless I play the game about maybe 2 years or more.

remote lintel
#

they can still hit the boss

tidal yarrow
#

what if we have 3 melee

remote lintel
#

you shouldnt

faint flare
#

Then someone cries

halcyon glen
#

^

faint flare
#

Or the healer moves

tidal yarrow
#

nicexd

remote lintel
#

2 melee 2 ranged is like the default comp

#

preferably 1 physical ranged and 1 caster

tidal yarrow
#

also, should we decide beforehand who the healer gives the lightning first (of the 2 dps)

remote lintel
#

the person in front of them

quaint forge
#

Oh Welp, I guess I have to deal with Online status

#

Veterans will mistakenly me that I have played all the contents before namazuconcern

halcyon glen
#

they shouldn't

tidal yarrow

so it's like a right triangle

remote lintel
#

yes

tidal yarrow
#

ohhhhh

halcyon glen

And if its your first time in a given map, say so!

so i have a full hotbar at 48. how in the world am i going to fit everything on at 80? there's like 12 more skills i need to learn :v anyone have any advice? i'm currently on my scholar

now I get it

proper cipher
#

You can turn the sprout thing back on manually i believe,

remote lintel
#

like this

#

except

tidal yarrow
#

yeah

twilit arch
#

no, once you lose sprout its gone

quaint forge
#

Or people should see the “first timers” as a bonus

remote lintel
#

dont actually go diagonally

proper cipher
#

Some skills replace other skills

#

And you can add more hotbars

tidal yarrow
#

R goes diagonally to H tho?

quaint forge
#

The screen will pop up the text

granite swan
#

@halcyon glen The game clearly states someone hasnt done something if they are new though? O.o

remote lintel
#

no they just move backwards

#

and then forwards again

#

on a straight line

halcyon glen
#

Doesn't say who

proper cipher
#

It states someone hasn't done it

#

not who

tidal yarrow
#

okay

#

thx

halcyon glen
#

so usually it's still a decent precaution to say "hey, new to this!"

tidal yarrow
#

now I can join both tri and circle parties atleast

quaint forge
#

Guess I can do that

remote lintel
#

you can use the lines on the boss arena to help you

#

you should all be standing in corners of a square

halcyon glen
#

Or even if it's not your first time but first time on a given role, a quick "hey, first time healing this!"

dusk mango
#

any server reccomendation in Aether since Sargatanas is locked?

tidal yarrow
#

talking of lines. there is still one mechanic that for some reason scares me. it's the horses before the first f14 which mechanic happens only once and if it is buffed with fury's bolt it's normal line if it's not it's dotted

halcyon glen
#

eww why is sarg locke... oh it's preferred

tidal yarrow
#

it is after first stormcloud

half kraken
#

I've just noticed, but is it not possible to actually progress 2x in a particular custom delivery story in a week?

tidal yarrow
#

where is the exact spot to stand?

remote lintel
#

for big knockback just behind the solid line

#

for small knockback on the dotted line

#

the big knockback is pretty generous for where you stand

tidal yarrow
#

I swear one time every six I got knocked down by 2nd horses

half kraken
#

Like I could've sworn I did 6 custom deliveries for ehll tou last week, which should mean the first 2 sets done, but I have to make her weaving supplies (the 2nd set) again this week

tidal yarrow
#

how much behind?

remote lintel
#

like probably a foot or 2 behind

#

dont touch it

twilit arch
#

Last week you would've only gotten half way thru 2nd stage. thats why you have to make her the 2nd set again @half kraken

tidal yarrow
#

does it matter if im attacking

remote lintel
#

no

tidal yarrow
#

/auto attacking

half kraken
#

Oh she needs 6 of each, not 3?

twilit arch
#

the first step is 3, every step after that is 6

half kraken
#

Oh huh

@dusk mango Sarg is only temporary locked because there are a lot of people on the server right now. If you wait until the evening or earlier in the morning, you should be able to make a character.

If you don't mind not having the Road to 70 buff, all the Aether servers are pretty good!

Gilgamesh is the biggest raiding server in Aether and NA as a whole, but besides that most of the other Aether servers are pretty close in community as fas as I've seen @dusk mango

how do I get the chat log to display what materia I've extracted?

vivid wolf

Consolewiki has a list of quests per expansion

winter canopy

I know how to get to the log options, but don't know which one controls materia extraction

vivid wolf

And basegame

Just normal chat

I believe

winter canopy

It doesn't show up in normal chat

halcyon glen

You have 35 quests to go! We tend to refer to quests by the patch they released in, and you're in 2.4 atm @granite swan

winter canopy

I don't think it's possible anymore, just checked by enabling every single log option and I still can't see what materia my spiritbond extraction gave me

granite swan
#

@halcyon glen Ah thanks

tame mirage
#

what's control? I'm leatherworking and inner quiet apparently boosts that

halcyon glen
#

2.4 is a lot of setup for HW, so you should pay attention to what's going on - the high houses of Ishgard, lady Iceheart, the heretics, etc.

faint flare
#

Control affects how much quality your touches give

twilit arch
#

control increases how much quality your touch actions give

granite swan
#

@halcyon glen ill stop skipping cutscenes then, i did that for some previous ones back in rev toll >.>

faint flare
#

Craftsmanship is how much peogress your synthesis give

tame mirage

so the more quality I have the more it gives quality? it's like a snowballing effect

halcyon glen
#

YEAH MAYBE THAT'S WHY THE STORY DIDN'T SEEM INTERESTING

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Well more touches you use, more youe control goes up

tame mirage
#

man leatherworking is chill

granite swan
#

@halcyon glen Well i slogged through quests up until that point and watched them, but it pretty much amounted to me standing around listening to other ppl do stuff that i wasnt really needed for lol

Because Tp was redundant after all the changes they did in stormblood

Would you say the location shown in the hunting log is neccessarily the best place to look? I already know it's not the only.

lone zephyr

K i found him he has a lot of options but none of them say anything about chocobo feathers

wait wut, almost 70? that gives me enough to msq chain all to way to shadow bringers then i guess

Like, for me... the game has a kind of goofy quality to the English, but that's not a knock on it.

#

It's like, these characters suit that tone.

wide cave
#

as long as the hype scenes dont get ruined i dont mind

#

japanese is often a lot more emotional, but as I have heard so much praise for the english dub I will try it

short sparrow
#

I generally find Japanese acting to emote more powerfully, but in this case I don't think it's what I want for the game. I say this with nothing but love for it, but the animations and designs are kinda goofy to me.

Eng dub is decent

deft quiver
#

oh it heals while its down too

warped nest
#

It is a 2 step skill

#

You place it

deft quiver
#

i thought it was just burst heal at the end

warped nest
#

Then you detonate it

#

You can detonate it early

deft quiver
#

oh ok

#

does it change potency?

warped nest
#

Yes

#

If you wait 10s, it is 50% more potent

#

Wait 10 more, it will detonate by itself without your input (while keeping the 50% potency increase)

lone zephyr
#

I see a lot of people with maid outfits when did the event happen?

warped nest
#

There is a sales

#

So people are buying these outfits?

lone zephyr

Oh

tame mirage
#

is there a quick sell button? I made a lot of leatherworking stuff

#

do I have to sell it one for one?

faint flare
#

One by one

tame mirage
#

it's such an easy accessibility option why can't you select more items and do sell all

paper torrent
#

can I map hunt with someone on another server in my data center?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Just world visit to the same world

paper torrent
#

cool

lone zephyr
#

Also there's a dream of the fayth option at the calamity salvager, was that an event or something?

nimble fog
#

hello, im in a weird problem right now and I hope I can find some answers. So I'm hunting the unicorns mounts and I was doing The bowl of embers (extreme) and when the whistle dropped the game told me that I already have that item, so I checked my inventory, my retainer's inventory, and I don't have the whistle...

proper cipher
#

Chocobo bags?

#

Or claimed already?

nimble fog
#

nope

#

if somehow I accidentally discard it im not gonna be able to get it again?

faint flare
#

You already used it and registered in your mount guide

#

It includes whether or not you have used the whistle as well

#

Not just if its in your inventories

short sparrow
#

Does anything in this game make enemy drops (not like dungeon loot, I'm talking crafting mats that you can farm) more likely or more numerous?

tidal yarrow
#

what's the purpose of the grand company except for a shop where the only useful thing is glamour prisms?thinkers

faint flare
#

Not really

proper cipher
#

Ventures, Glamours

faint flare
#

Old mats 🤷‍♂️

proper cipher
#

Some exp stuff

faint flare
#

Some stuff for old relics

tidal yarrow
#

ventures? the things for retainers?

proper cipher
#

Yeah you can buy them

short sparrow
#

Can't get a room in the GC house without being Lt. in GC.

faint flare
#

Plus the mini aetheryte for whenever you get a house

short sparrow
#

Uh FC house.

tidal yarrow
#

oh the mini aetheryte Is actually important

#

thx

fluid frigate
#

it kills time when youre queueing

short sparrow
#

It's important?

#

How?

faint flare
#

Only way to get it

#

And you need it to teleport to your house

tidal yarrow
#

so people don't have to teleport in the area and search for your house

faint flare
#

Whenever you get one

fluid frigate
#

So is theree somewhere I can look up previous versions of classes? 2.0, 3.0, etc. Im curious

karmic niche
#

To recruit someone in my GC, i need to complete a catagory or just one of the log inside the catagory?

obsidian patio
#

Just a log in a category

karmic niche
#

Oh, that be easy

nimble fog
#

@faint flare I already checked on my mount guide and the mount its not there

faint flare
#

Do /isearch The item

nimble fog
#

no matches found

#

:c

obsidian patio
#

Enclose it with quotations for more than one word

#

If you did discard the whistle you’ll just have to get it again

short sparrow
#

Man, the drop rates for some stuff are stingy. You'd think an animal would always yield some meat when you kill it.

nimble fog
#

@obsidian patio I already did the raid and the game didn't let me get the whistle

#

because "I already have it"

#

lol

obsidian patio
#

Then you do.

tame mirage
#

why is my light blue ninetailed rat so weak

#

it deals 2 per hit

short sparrow
#

Checked the Chocobo Saddlebag, and all your retainers?

nimble fog
#

yup

obsidian patio
#

Try typing this exact thing
/isearch Aithon

faint flare
#

Because its a aoe pet

tame mirage
#

oh

#

fair enough

#

can I change pets in the future or is this the only pet I'll ever summon? changing colors doesn't count as new pet

nimble fog
#

rip

obsidian patio
#

And you checked your mount guide thoroughly?

nimble fog
#

I only have 19 mounts so it wasn't that hard to look for it

#

lol

obsidian patio
#

Submit a bug report then and see what SE can do for you

signal gull
#

where can I get a lvl 60 weapon for poetics in idyllshire?

lunar wagon
#

Hello, How do I unlock other items in the yellow scripts like slithersand?

nimble fog
#

yeah I think its the only way

obsidian patio
#

@signal gull bertana in the shire weapon exchange

nimble fog
#

@obsidian patio @faint flare thank you guys

icy quiver
#

Hello I am starting ff14 and i'm level 24 I was wondering how big is the new region norvrandt ?

nimble fog
#

thanks for having me patience

high sapphire
#

realistically speaking, with road to 70 buff and doing MSQs how long would it take to hit 70?

tame mirage
#

ok I got it it's an AOE pet but holy moly is 1 damage the best this can offer without a skill

left moth
#

Most of the zones post heavensward are roughly same size. The shadowbringers zones are just more directly connected land wise. The best comparison might be la noscea

obsidian patio
#

@lunar wagon complete the quests “Reach Long and Prosper” in Rhalgr’s Reach along with “The Boutique always wins” in Eulmore

lunar wagon
#

@obsidian patio Thank you! I'll go check it out

obsidian patio
#

@tame mirage that’s just how the damage is at the very low levels

#

It’s also based on your gear and stats

left moth
#

@lone zephyr the fayth stuff was from a crossover event forever ago. It hasnt beem removed from salvager in case 2 people still have reward certificates

obsidian patio
#

@icy quiver all the zones there are pretty big

icy quiver
#

ok thank you ! because I come from WoW and GW2 and the zones for now seem smaller compared to those game but it's maybe only an impression

obsidian patio
#

Only the base game zones are small since they weren’t designed with flying in mind

shrewd relic
#

is allied reputation above blood sworn?

twilit arch
#

yes

#

you can only get allied though when you complete the allied beast quest (which requires all rep of that expansion to be maxed out)

#

so for shb beast tribes, probably won't see the allied tribe quest until 5.5 most likely

icy quiver
#

oh and also can i get a mount lvl 24 ?

shrewd relic
#

ahh okay ty

obsidian patio
#

You get it at level 20 in the story

halcyon glen
#

As long as you’re caught up on MSQ

icy quiver
#

You get it at level 20 in the story
@obsidian patio Oops i forgot to take it then xD

obsidian patio
#

It’s a sidequest at your grand company that you picked

#

“My Little Chocobo”

lone violet
#

so I have maxed out Company seals. Any idea what I should spend them on ?

signal gull
#

so does it take long to lvl a DoH to 19? I just saw thats the req. for the materia unlock feature. I only played MSQ and never looked into life skills

obsidian patio
#

@lone violet I recommend focusing on promotions until Sergeant Second class to be able to turn in dungeon gear for more seals

#

@signal gull goes by super fast, just make one of each item in the crafting log in the 1-15 sections

lone violet
#

I am 2nd storm lieutenant and I can't promote for some reason

mossy tartan
#

My 4th hotbar is shared, how can I turn it off to make it specifically for 1 job layout? I can’t find the option in HUD layout

warped nest
#

@signal gull using materials you buy from your guild NPC

#

@mossy tartan character config, Hotbar

signal gull
#

aight thx guys

faint flare
#

You cant turn it off for a specific hud layout

warped nest
#

HUD layout setting only handle the positioning/size of a UI

obsidian patio
#

You have to participate in the squadron command to promote past 2nd lieutenant

warped nest
#

There many many more UI settings

#

Tucked away in your character configuration window

mossy tartan
#

@mossy tartan character config, Hotbar
@warped nest thank you, found it

lone violet
#

@obsidian patio so Just run command missions (dungeons) and I will be able to promote myself ?

obsidian patio
#

No, the ones where you send them out on missions

#

The mission that lets you promote to first lieutenant appears at level 40, though you’ll have a hard time clearing it until your squad is level 50+

lone violet
granite swan
#

Whats the best method to get GC Seals that doesnt involve selling dungeon loot?

slate arrow
#

Making stuff for the crafted/gathered expert turn ins once a day

granite swan
#

Where do you see those?

slate arrow
#

Your GC administratior > supply and delivery missions

#

Note these require having crafters and gatherers unlocked

#

And rewards still depend on your current level @ reset

granite swan
#

ah

fallow slate
#

what are good sources of exp bonuses for levelling alt classes?

#

I know of the ring for 30% under lvl 30

faint flare
#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
fallow slate
#

ah thanks

#

what's the armory bonus it mentions?

granite swan
#

main job being higher then alts gives it bonus xp

#

100% bonus xp till ... 60 then it drops to 50% i think?

fallow slate
#

oh really?

#

thats cool

mossy tartan
#

Which tank has the highest personal damage? Or are they all close?

lone violet
#

also how do I get my squadrons to pick up jobs ?

#

or do they stay as classes ?

twilit arch
#

they stay as classes

lone violet
#

oh

#

ok

stable herald
#

Hmm.. regarding the melon minion

#

Do you have to consistently water for 7 days?

#

Or is it cummulative?

#

Like i can spread this 7 days over 2 weeks

stable herald
#

Does this mechanic apply to all plants?

obsidian patio
#

You have to water them every day or so to keep them from dying

#

You could stretch it past a day, but you run the risk of forgetting and losing all the time/Gil spent if they die

onyx kiln
#

anyone who knows how you get this sightseeing spot in the NW part of Coerthas western highlands?

marble drift
#

iirc Aoi. the melon minion is buyable from the marketboard for (as far as I recall) rather cheaply

obsidian patio
#

Walk onto the statue itself, you can’t fly directly to the node

marble drift
#

so. Could I suggest skipping the growing and going straight to the marketboard?

obsidian patio
#

I personally wouldn’t so soon in the patch

marble drift
#

I picked one up yesterday for 40k

#

which is functionally a drop in the bucket

obsidian patio
#

They’re still like 150k on Gilgamesh bigbrain

marble drift
#

o_o

#

praise Elemental I suppose

onyx kiln
#

are you talking about the allagan melon?

marble drift
#

my bad. skip all my dumb ass advice

#

grow that shit

obsidian patio
#

Scratch that, 80k now

honest anvil
#

Do i have to spend tome of poetics every week?

marble drift
#

Nope

#

you can cap em out and leave em

obsidian patio
#

You don’t need to, but you can’t stockpile any past 2000

marble drift
#

they're not that important at cap

mossy tartan
#

Is the potency of X spell a multiplier of the caster’s stats and weapon / magic damage?

obsidian patio
#

The math is a bit more complicated than that, but basically yes

marble drift
#

yeah traits and stuff come into account

#

Potency is weird

obsidian patio
#

To show off the discrepancy

#

!action equilibrium

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Equilibrium** : lvl 58 WAR (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Restores own HP.
Cure Potency: 1,200

obsidian patio
#

!action cure ii

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Cure II** : lvl 30 CNJ WHM (1000 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.0 second base cast time)

Restores target's HP.
Cure Potency: 700

honest anvil
#

i’m very new though. Just got to the part where poetics were introduced

marble drift
#

Cure 2 WAY outstrips a warriors Equil

obsidian patio
#

Despite the difference of 500 potency, these heal around the same assuming equal gear.

#

My equilibrium heals for 29k and my cure 2 heals for 30k. (WAR has i480 gear and WHM has i490)

honest anvil
#

so i should spend poetics to avoid the 2000 cap(?) but on what?

potent lava
#

Any place to read those active help windows outside of the game?
Want to read all those ones that appeared in my first dungeon that I couldnt because everyone was rushing

obsidian patio
#

You can spend it on i130 ironworks gear at Mor Dhona and the Sundry Splendors in the main city-states

marble drift
#

Did they change how you upgrade ironworks in 5.3 Wynne?

#

don't have to go over to gerolt anymore?

long radish
#

Would anyone mind making a party for my friend and I we are on trial accounts

obsidian patio
#

New players can’t get unaugmented tomestone gear anymore

neat terrace
#

Does anyone know what the min value for retainer gathering should be to have access to full loot table?

obsidian patio
#

They just buy the augmented directly

marble drift
#

awesome. thats a good streamline feature

obsidian patio
#

!faq retainerbp

zinc orbitBOT
#
What are the current retainer breakpoints for max yield?

BTN/MIN: 2083 Gathering.
FSH: 1628 Gathering.
DoW/DoM: Item Level 428.

neat terrace
#

ty

marble drift
#

is that just for ironworks or did they change that for the others too?

obsidian patio
#

All 3

marble drift
#

dope. good change. good job SE

mossy tartan
#

My equilibrium heals for 29k and my cure 2 heals for 30k. (WAR has i480 gear and WHM has i490)
@obsidian patio woah, so little a difference despite the massive potency gap

obsidian patio
#

Because of scaling for each classes

#

It’s a good example of why you don’t directly compare potencies of other classes

mossy tartan
#

Interesting, thank you

marble drift
#

Its a rough judge at best

hearty garden
#

There is a boat in Coerthas Western Highlands that I need to get on in order to complete my job quest. However, I'm unable to get on it. Do I need to unlock flying first in order to get on the boat?

marble drift
#

but has so many just wacky comparisons its not worth

obsidian patio
#

Yes frumples

elder meteor
#

if I'm leveling a retainer from lv1, is it more efficient to use the 18h field exploration ventures or to do the 1h hunting ones?

obsidian patio
#

1hr is better if you’re actively playing, 18 hours if you’re going AFK or logging off

agile laurel
#

So I have an acquaintance who seems to have an allergy to spell effects. I know you can turn spell effects down or off, but is there any way to turn them even more off? like, the casting glow around you?

elder meteor
#

yeah. does the like xp per venture token not matter? not sure how easy it is to get venture tokens

marble drift
#

they're buyable from GC seals which are easily farmable

elder meteor
#

what's the best way to get GC seals? I can't turn in dungeon gear yet apparently

obsidian patio
#

@agile laurel if you mean the glow when you’re spending your time casting to get the spell out, no.

marble drift
#

then go ahead and get to that rank

agile laurel
#

yeah, i do mean that

marble drift
#

as turning in defunct gear

#

is the best way

agile laurel
#

my mans just complains about spell effects whatever we do so I was wondering if there was like an absolute zero mode

elder meteor
#

how do you get the GC seals before you can turn in dungeon gear?

obsidian patio
#

So the grand company hunting log

marble drift
#

fates, your GC hunting log

remote lintel

bout to move to tonberry, are apartments still available there?

marble drift

In some districts yes

elder meteor

wait housing can run out?

marble drift
#

ohyeah

#

on popular servers

azure kettle
#

Can you pause your sub

marble drift
#

its already mostly gone

#

No Zero

#

it ticks non-stop

elder meteor
#

damn. I'm on brynhildr. hopefully it's not all gone. x.x

marble drift
#

you can unlink your credit card to not re-sub once your time runs out

remote lintel
#

apartments dont run out

elder meteor
#

just started playing a few days ago lol

remote lintel
#

but houses do

leaden ginkgo
#

i thought apartments dont run out unlike houses

remote lintel
#

they dont

obsidian patio
#

They theoretically don’t, but SE still has to do stuff to increase their limit

leaden ginkgo
#

oh i see

obsidian patio
#

I think the true maximum number of rooms for an apartment in a ward is 512

marble drift
#

Curious as why the move to Tonberry

#

Are you a fellow Australian?

#

:3

leaden ginkgo
#

nope from sea tho

#

turns out my friends were over there

marble drift
#

Fair enough. We've sort've taken that server as an our own

#

that and kujata is where you'll find the majority of english speaking players on Elemental

leaden ginkgo
#

unofficial english server huh? id like to be able to interact with more ppl too

#

over at typhon its mostly chinese or japanese

marble drift

Ah so you're familar with the auto-translate wrangling already. good
