Stupid Question for Summoner: What happened to Miasma II ? I see a talent that goes from Miasma to Miasma III but theres no II ? Lol

plush hound
#

One piece of gear, a stellacluster, and a coin are once a week drops.

obsidian patio
#

You can get one equipment each week

polar cairn
#

😔

#

ty

obsidian patio
#

Cards/minions/music don’t have any lockout

twilit arch
#

miasma 2 was removed awhile ago

plush hound
#

@granite swan If it's a talent your ability gets upgraded to it.

twilit arch
#

no, miasma 2 just doesn't exist anymore

#

use to be a melee aoe skill for smn/sch

plush hound
#

OH right, Miasma 2 was scrapped in 5.0 iirc

granite swan
#

Ah

twilit arch
#

miasma 2 stop being a thing for smn in like sb

#

with it being reworked into art of war for sch

granite swan
#

Do Currents in HW and beyond showup on the map at all? or is it entirely dependent on the compass?

twilit arch
#

compass, or you can use a site like heavenswhere if you're not interested in hunting for them

granite swan
#

ooh thanks alot

plush hound
#

Purely compass, which can make for some fun incidents.

deft quiver
#

is there a leveling/spell guide for BLU anywhere?

plush hound
#

One of the ones in the Lochs has broken more than one player. 😄

little swift
#

!faq bluguide

granite swan
#

I kinda forgot how slow mounts are without flight or speed boosts

deft quiver
#

thanks

plush hound
#

Until you can go fast enough where going "it's too fast!" you're always going to be going too slow. 😛

cobalt wedge
#

best heavensward location for yokai farming?

thorny lion
#

Hey guys, I recently started playing this game and had a quick question

#

The complete edition is on sale for $39 right now, and it includes a 1 month sub.

granite swan
#

so is Ruin IV upgrade to Ruin II?

thorny lion
#

If I buy this right now, will the 1 month sub automatically activate right now?

#

Or can I save it and activate it later?

twilit arch
#

yes @granite swan

#

and yes, you can save it later

granite swan
#

ah k

twilit arch
#

game codes dont expire

thorny lion
#

Perfect!

granite swan
#

Ugh i had all my hotbars just fine when i was stuck pre 51+ story quests ... now i have to redo the whole thing lol

olive inlet
#

where can i get the whisper go mount? i need to unlock 13 mounts right? i have 15 atm

twilit arch
#

talk to jonathas in gridania

#

all achievement rewards are gotten from him

olive inlet
#

ok thank you

granite swan
#

its not 13 mounts, its 13 yo kai minions isnt it?

olive inlet
#

yeah 13 yokai mounts

obsidian patio
#

Weapons

#

Well 13 weapons for the glowy one

#

13 Minions for the plain one

sick knot
#

where do we get the mounts? is it from a vendor?

twilit arch
#

talk to jonathas in gridania
all achievement rewards are gotten from him

sick knot
#

what area in gridania is Jonathas in?

gloomy mortar
#

Amphitheatre

obsidian patio
#

Apkallu falls of old gridania

granite swan
#

north part, to the left of lancer guild, kinda center of map

faint flare
#

Marked by on the map as Achievement exchange

karmic niche
#

for the legendary medal for the yokai event

#

do i need 5 of the same minion

#

5 token minion*

faint flare
#

You need 5 medals for the first weapon

raven sage
#

For the first one

faint flare
#

10 for second onwards

raven sage
#

After that it's 10

karmic niche
#

so does it have to be same 5 token as the minion right?

#

like i need 5 jiban

faint flare
#

Yes

karmic niche
#

oh ok

raven sage
#

Yes it will drop the correct ones

karmic niche
#

i guess i am just gonna collect minions first

faint flare
#

At least get 1 then have it out

obsidian patio
#

You can do both at once

faint flare
#

So you get both medals

karmic niche
#

yeah, i know it just region lock

cobalt wedge
#

did they increase blue mage level cap?

#

what is it now?

raven sage
#

60

cobalt wedge
#

what is the best way to level blue mage?

#

fates?

faint flare
#

Killing mobs

plush hound
#

partner with a capped player, tag the mob and have the partner kill it.

faint flare
#

And don't be in a party

plush hound
#

Otherwise just solo killing.

sinful sorrel
#

Hey, I've heard Lancer be called "Floor tank," why do some people call it that?

rotund idol
#

because we die a lot

open coral
#

If you don't have a higher level friend to partner up with, soloing mobs a few levels higher than you is the fastest for BLU

faint flare
#

Because of animation locks

#

On jumps explicitly

#

Its a meme

sinful sorrel
#

I've never played lancer at all

plush hound
#

Lancer/Dragoon has abilities that lock it in place, causing it to get caught by some heavy attacks more often andying as a result. It became a meme as a result.

open coral
#

It's really DRG more than LNC

sinful sorrel
#

Ah okie

#

Oh yeah, dragoon

#

Idk why I said lancer, that's the base job

open coral
#

But yeah, animation locks mean they end up tanking the floor (aka dead) more often than almost any other class.

twilit arch
#

dragoons, back in the day, also had lower magic resist than other jobs

#

so they died pretty easily to raidwide damage

sinful sorrel
#

Oof

twilit arch
#

neither of those things are really true anymore

obsidian patio
#

And jumps had longer animation locks

sinful sorrel
#

Ty, now I understand the memes

obsidian patio
#

Like, much longer

twilit arch
#

drg still has a bit of animation lock but its not nearly as bad as it once was

deft quiver
#

is it like a stun?

twilit arch
#

its a silence

faint flare
#

No

twilit arch
#

!faq interject

zinc orbitBOT
#
Interrupt
open coral
#

It interrupts a spell specifically. Basically if the game says "the enemy is chanting something", Interject can interrupt it (usually)

sinful sorrel
#

Is there a way to tell which attacks can be interrupted?

faint flare
#

Yes

open coral
#

If they have a flashing cast bar

faint flare
#

See the image

open coral
#

As shown in that image above

faint flare
#

That was posted

sinful sorrel
#

Oh that flashy box

#

Okie

granite swan
#

So funny seeing my girl in bikini top and hot pants in snow covered lands and everyone else is shivering :p

sinful sorrel
#

The Warrior of Light has natural cold immunity

open coral
#

WoL ain't mortal. Why would we be affected by something as mundane as the elements?

warped nest
#

I can eat a Akh morn

soft jay
#

quick qn on yokai watch event...1) We need to equip both the watch and the minion when farming FATES right? 2) The medals and legednary medals drop is random? Doesnt mean you do 1 FATE u get 1 medal...etc?

warped nest
#

Snow is barely an inconvenience

twilit arch
#

you only need the watch for minion tokens, and you need the minion for the legendary tokens

open coral
#

Watch is only for the basic medals. You need the minion in the correct zone for the legendaries.

twilit arch
#

so once you've gotten all the minions, you don't need the watch anymore

remote lintel
#

why does AST use herring pie as raid food this tier?

plush hound
#

In particular you need the minion summoned for the weapons.

warped nest
#

soft jay
#

have been doing abt 10 FATES, but no medals dropped so i was wondering if im doign aything wrong

obsidian patio
#

I’m guessing to hit a specific spell speed tier

open coral
#

Probably for the SpS and Crit

twilit arch
#

make sure you're in the right zone for that weapon/

remote lintel
#

i suppose so

twilit arch
#

otherwise, its just rng for legendary models

soft jay
#

legendary medals is rng, but normal medals should drop per FATE? tks again @twilit arch

mortal ibex
#

i can't do anything with my Phantasmagoria or Allegory until I'm done with ShB MSQ right?

faint flare
#

Nope

twilit arch
#

yeah you need to complete the main scenario quest "Shadowbringers" before you can see the npcs

mortal ibex
#

thought so; thanks!

junior osprey
#

how do i get ppl to join my treasure map pf? lol

rotund sable
#

depends on what kind of map it is exactly

karmic kernel
#

What's the best way to level a DoH class from 1-50 if you don't have the collectables system unlocked?

#

i.e. the first time through

little swift
#

You won't have access to collectables until 50ish anyways

karmic kernel
#

That's... why I'm asking lol

open coral
#

Ixal beast tribe is good.

karmic kernel
#

Got it, thanks

twilit arch
#

1-15: crafting log is fine

little swift
#

1 to 20 you can do one of everything in your vrafting log and class quests

twilit arch
#

15+ leves/ixali beast tribe/ restoration if your msq if far enough

mossy tartan
#

Is cane of the white tsar (none-glowing version) dyeable?

twilit arch
#

yes

mossy tartan
#

What’s the name of the glowing one? I’m being awfully ignorant at the moment

twilit arch
#

sharpened cane of the white tsar

plush hound
#

@mossy tartan If you want to find out if a piece of gear you have is dyable, look for a dot in the upper right of the icon. If there's a dot there it's dyable.

short sparrow
#

Do sidequests offer significant enough XP that I should save them for other classes or what?

#

Since all but my main won't get the boost of MSQs.

twilit arch
#

side quests really arent that amazing of exp, can skip if you want. though they offer decent stories

plain python
#

can classes of same role (like White Mage and Scholar) share the same armor gear?

twilit arch
#

yes

#

most gear is shared between roles

#

its just the job specific gear (also know as artifact gear) that is not, and weapon ofc

plain python
#

is artifact gear raid gear?

simple shore
#

Nah

faint flare
#

No

plush hound
#

If the Job or Disciple group is on the gear, you can equip it.

faint flare
#

Its the job gear you get

#

From your job queste

#

The entry levep gear

granite swan
#

No idea if this is spoiler or not since it relates to class quests but
||Are there Ascians in all the class quests or just some of them?||

simple shore
#

You get handed at set of it at each expansions level cap more or less, but its the worst gear at that level cap

twilit arch
#

only some of them

#

namely summoner

granite swan
#

Ah k

mossy tartan
#

@mossy tartan If you want to find out if a piece of gear you have is dyable, look for a dot in the upper right of the icon. If there's a dot there it's dyable.
@plush hound thank you

granite swan
#

thats the main one i was curious about heh

plain python
#

some jobs start at lv50-60. When I start them, will I start at lv1 or continue from their starting level?

twilit arch
#

at their starting level

#

basically what level they are unlocked is the level they're going to be when you switch to them, the exception to this is the heavensward jobs that require you to be lvl 50 to unlock but they start at lvl 30

karmic niche
#

is this guide accurate

#

it said atma drop 25%

tulip plover
#

How the hell do you find the next job quest

#

Cant find it anywhere even when i look it up on google

plain python
#

flying mount is given at the end of lv1-50 MSQ? Or in between?

twilit arch
#

All mounts can fly

#

@tulip plover if you're still working on the quests between the end of ARR and the start of HW, then you need to progress thru those first before you can do the 50-60 job quests

tulip plover
#

Well im in post hw

#

Like lvl 68

twilit arch
#

then the same applies there

#

you need to progress to stormblood to be able to do the 60-70 job quests

tulip plover
#

Ah ok

#

Thought i was trippin

granite swan
#

Are there Hunt Logs for classes in HW and beyond?

twilit arch
#

nope

granite swan
#

k

scarlet pollen
#

Do certain minions only work in specific zones for the legendary medals for the yo-kai event?

faint flare
#

Yes

deft quiver
#

yup

faint flare
#

The yokai compendium/medallion tells you

mossy tartan
faint flare
#

Also pinned messages in here

#

A emote

mossy tartan
#

Where can I view it?

faint flare
#

Its basically a russian style dance

mossy tartan
#

Okay, thank you

faint flare
#

No one has it yet but 1 npc previews it

twilit arch
#

its from the dwarven beast tribe, and one of the dailies shows it off

deft quiver
#

is it just me, or do ARR zones with flying have slower movement?

#

im in Potd city and im slow af

#

on ground and air

#

do i need the riding maps?

twilit arch
#

riding maps don't affect flying speed

#

flying is always max speed

deft quiver
#

did i do something thats making me slow walk?

leaden ginkgo
#

okay Kael wait wait wait, I'm still confused on savage loot. Furthermore, players will be ineligible for rewards from treasure coffers as well as Eden's Verse apocrypha when replaying a duty prior to the weekly reset.

simple shore
#

As in, you get one shot a week in each of the four wings for loot

#

if you dont get loot on your first shot, sucks to be you, wait till next week

twilit arch
#

sometimes the game can be a bit finicky, i usually find that stopping and flying up again "fixes" the slow flying

obsidian patio
#

If you enter E8S you lose all chances of loot for E5S-E7S that week, including the weekly page

leaden ginkgo
#

yet if someone has completed it and joins a party- they decrease the treasure drop?

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

what's the purpose of that?

#

that person can't even roll

simple shore
#

So that experienced players can help newer ones clear, mostly

leaden ginkgo
#

but it's true that they can't roll? i'm understanding that correctly?

simple shore
#

Even if 7 people already did it

#

they can help 1 person get their page for the week

leaden ginkgo
#

i see.

obsidian patio
#

To prevent hardcore raiders from easily funnelling gear to a single person

leaden ginkgo
#

well i lucked out and got 2 coffers xsmirknthink

deft quiver
#

sometimes the game can be a bit finicky, i usually find that stopping and flying up again "fixes" the slow flying
@twilit arch i toggled walk only on accident when messing around with numpad buttons

#

big facepalm moment

twilit arch
#

no worries 🙂

#

happens sometimes

granite swan
#

Are the Neir raids tied to MSQ?

leaden ginkgo
#

wow so people who don't get loot, that's terrible 🤣

obsidian patio
#

No

twilit arch
#

The only msq requirement for the nier raids is that you need to complete "Shadowbringers", but other than that there's no tie to it

granite swan
#

Ah

deft quiver
plain python
#

I got the moon fairie set in the dresser and make it a glamor plate to check it out. Now, how I change back to my glamor-less gear?

faint flare
#

Need glamour dispellers to remove glamours

#

You dont, you are forever stuck as a Beach Bum! Mwahahaha ... jk

grizzled vault
#

thought DPS add-ons were against ToS, but considered a mod and some people do it anyways

simple shore
#

They technically are

honest anvil
#

anyone experienced getting put on a wait list to buy the complete edition? by the EU sqex store fwiw

faint flare
#

They are

#

But SE is lenient as long as you're not a dick

simple shore
#

but its a "dont ask dont tell" kind of situation. Basically SE cant tell if you're using it - unless you say something in game about it, at which point they can and will ban you for it.

#

They basically dont care as long as you arent harassing people about their shit numbers

frank wigeon
#

hey is yokai event account wide with rewards?

faint flare
#

No

#

Event rewards are basically never account wide

#

Gotta do it on every alt

frank wigeon
#

understood thank you ❤️

granite swan
#

Why do the Gnath remind of of something from Kenshi? Lol

#

Also for the Yokai thing, can you pick which minions you get or is it random?

faint flare
#

You pick

granite swan
#

ooh nice

patent citrus
#

Should I transmute all the materias i've got from lv 1?

#

not sure what to do with them

granite swan
#

What type of stuff would a RDM want for accessories? Casting?

strange coral
#

Yes, casting

granite swan
#

k

simple shore
#

@patent citrus Grade 3 materia (combat) can sometimes be pretty disproportionately valuable. Check MB to see if its worth selling on your server

patent citrus
#

1-2 sell to npc?

#

3 is market board

simple shore
#

Or transmute them

patent citrus
#

correct? 🤔

simple shore
#

When you transmute, you can sometimes get a higher grade

#

so like 5 1's could become a 2

#

But yes, 3 should go on MB

#

1/2 either transmute or vendor

opal bough
#

If I don't loot on puppets bunker can I loot it again this week

faint flare
#

Yes

#

You can run it as much as you want until you get your gear

granite swan
#

is being able to fly account or character based? Like if i make an alt, can i fly without doing MSQ etc?\

#

or i guess the better question, is there a list of what is account based and what is character based?

burnt flicker
#

character based

i wonder what's account base 🤔 pretty sure all are character based

strange coral
#

Almost everything is character based. About the only stuff that is account wide is collector's edition stuff and some mogstation optional items.

granite swan
#

ah

burnt flicker

mostly mounts are account wide

ooo mounts are account wide?

leaden ginkgo
#

which of the three poetics sets have overall better value for alts? ironworks, shire, or scaevan?

sharp axle
#

I think i can live with 150

leaden ginkgo
#

I think i can live with 150
@sharp axle the game was designed with latency in mind, that's why the global cooldown is 2.5s

sharp axle
#

I know

leaden ginkgo
#

at least you're not playing 4.3 Machinist

sharp axle
#

Honestly i have not even switched to that job in ages

little swift
#

which of the three poetics sets have overall better value for alts? ironworks, shire, or scaevan?
@leaden ginkgo they're not comparable since they're for different level ranges. each set is good for that range because its easily accessible

plush hound
#

@leaden ginkgo They all have worth. Ironworks is best for level 50, Shire is best for level 60, and Scavean is best for level 70.

leaden ginkgo
#

I guess I'll just get the shire set, I feel like spend more time in that range rather than 70

#

shadowbringers dungeons drop a lot of loot

sharp axle
#

IIRC they merged the upgraded sets didnt they?

leaden ginkgo
#

yes, can only get augmented now

ivory gull
#

How often should I water the garden ? What's the timer before the plant goes bad ?

sharp axle
#

Which is why half of my 70 set is higher than the other

plush hound
#

@sharp axle They removed the upgrade items. You can buy the Augmented for 100 poetics more.

hearty acorn
#

if i get the 17 yokai minions before i can unlock mounts would i still get the whisper go?

sharp axle
#

Oh?

#

I didnt know that

leaden ginkgo
#

@sharp axle They removed the upgrade items. You can buy the Augmented for 100 poetics more.
@plush hound only scaevan and shire though... sadly

little swift
#

get them at the calamity salvager

plush hound
#

@hearty acorn yes, the mounts are Achievement rewards and can be claimed at any time.

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm stuck with unaugmented ironworks caster set

#

wanted for my BLU

#

the NPCs won't accept my carbon materials, so I guess I'll just throw them away

#

hopefully they change that in the upcoming patch

plush hound
#

Pretty much. The upgrade items are worthless now.

twilit arch
#

you can still augment

#

provided you have the carbontwine/coat

leaden ginkgo
#

yes, I have

twilit arch
#

then talk to drake

leaden ginkgo
#

wow, I didn't think of that, I'll go there right now

lone zephyr
#

Can I set up a custom framerate?

#

My laptop can run the game on 150 - 180 fps max

#

But the screen jags

burnt flicker
#

turn Vsync on

lone zephyr
#

And 60 fps feels kinda low to me

#

turn Vsync on
Wat ?

potent lava
#

do you need the specific yokai to get the related legendary yokai medal

karmic niche
#

does the weapon for yokai level specific?

twilit arch
#

yes, you need to have the minion out to get its legendary medal

karmic niche
#

what i mean is that if i exchange my medal for specific weapon will it be level80?

twilit arch
#

no

karmic niche
#

or it will be on my current level

#

so current level ha

#

dang

twilit arch
#

they're lvl 30 weapons

karmic niche
#

OH

#

i see

waxen scaffold
#

Does the game have an auto-navigate thing for quests? Finding myself lost XD.

karmic niche
#

no

#

it only show you where it is

waxen scaffold
#

Man okay, hahah um, how do I get to Lower La Noscea from Limsa Lominsa?

leaden ginkgo
#

Question i plan on buying the full game. Is it cheaper to buy the complete edition, or buy the starter then the rest?

twilit arch
#

go to the upper decks of limsa and exit the zone line to the south

#

unless you can find one or the other on sale, they're going to be roughly the same price @leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

figured theres no other place to get it on sale huh

twilit arch
#

well just missed the square store sale

#

so probably going to be awhile before there's any more sales

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah i saw

#

so its w.e

patent citrus
#

complete edition

twilit arch
#

If you're supre sure you're going to buy the whole game, may as well go for complete

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah just gonna buy complete now then

burnt flicker
#

now if only SE had better dl servers

leaden ginkgo
#

so how long does it take

#

to get my code i just bought the game

#

nvm

patent citrus
#

hmm should be like 10 mins

leaden ginkgo
#

just got it

patent citrus
#

or something

#

when I purchased the game, I waited another week to activate so not sure

can you do anything with triple triad cards you already have or are you just supposed to discard them?

twilit arch
#

you can sell them for mgp

#

there's a trader at the main counter at the gold saucer

rugged flicker
#

So are there only specific fates you can get Yokai medals from?

faint flare
#

Not spefic fates, specific areas

twilit arch
#

no, any fates within the specific zones for that yokai works

rugged flicker
#

What areas are the new ones in? Because I was thinking of using this to level gunbreaker.

#

And it can be combined with emergency tactic too

faint flare
#

Gnb is all stormblood zones

#

Same with dancer

#

@waxen scaffold correct, with Dots you reapply them as late as possible

waxen scaffold
#

Ty! I didn't notice anyway to see how long a target has left for the effect, do I just need to keep track of it in my head?

And would my bio stack with another person's bio?

warped nest
#

Yes

faint flare
#

Focus target the boss

#

To keep track of debuffs

warped nest
#

And you should be able to see them on your current and focus target

waxen scaffold
#

ah k, ty!

granite swan
#

How do you tell if a certain quest is beginner to beastman questlines?

patent swift
#

is there a limit to medals per day?

#

i was doin good for a while but not getting any now

bold mirage
#

whats currently the best way to get phantasmagora, after roulettes

twilit arch
#

no limit on how many medals you can get

#

legendary medals are rng

patent swift
#

rip

#

must be havin horrible luck then

twilit arch
#

make sure you've got the right minion out + in the right zone

patent swift
#

yeah, I do sadly 😭

#

komasan + outer la

twilit arch
#

@bold mirage hunts are pretty good for phanta or farming anamensis anyder/heroe's gauntlet

bold mirage
#

thanks!

#

@twilit arch if I re-do the expert roulette (because both anamensis and heros is on it---I still get the tomestones from thsoe dungeons just not the bonus roulette one right?

twilit arch
#

ya

bold mirage

Does carbuncle have health/is able to pull enmity or not?

twilit arch
#

nope, carbuncle can't be targetted by spells/attacks

#

so they can't take damage nor tank for you

patent swift
#

@twilit arch i was told the kaiyoko infograph was wrong and she had an updated version, just in case anyone else asks

#

so i did have the wrong minion out lol

lilac flume
#

whats the proper timing for the castrum meridianum collosus boss skip? i know you want to stun at ~80 hp but when should the stun end, or how long should it last?

twilit arch
#

rip, well we've got the updated infographic pinned in here

granite swan
#

They do take damage, i dont think they have hp or if they do its infinite, ive seen dmg #s pop up over my furball

twilit arch
#

you might have been mistaking it for something else, but neither smn/sch pets can receive dmg

small vault
#

I'm going through the Alexander raids, and I get Gordian materials afterwards but can't sell them. What can I use them for?

twilit arch
#

the precision stuff is used for anima relic items, the unidentifiable items. can toss those or hold onto them if you want to do it later

#

the non precision bolts and whatnot is for exchanging for the non dyeable raid gear

vestal needle
#

so i max on gil

#

what should i spend it on?

feral canyon
#

is there a problem with the server

#

It's like

#

100 ping but I keep lagging out

granite swan
#

Lv 60 class quest, does it give decent armor?

full juniper
#

I got a buddy trying to join my server but can't. Is it worth it to try another time or is it not a big deal to be on different worlds

twilit arch
#

yeah the lvl 60 quest gives basically entry lvl 60 armour. its good enough until you get the gear from post msq or poetics

#

@full juniper its not that big of a deal to be on different worlds, so long as you're on the same datacenter. unless you really want to be in the same free company then he needs to be on your server

#

which in an few hours, should be able to make a character on the server since most of NA should be asleep by then

full juniper
#

@twilit arch have you ever noticed a server not being open for long period of time like days on end?

twilit arch
#

if the server is super popular, its possible that the temporary lock doesn't get lifted for a while

#

since its based on how many people are logged in currently

full juniper
#

No way to find out how long a server has been locked?

twilit arch
#

nope, as i said the temporary locked is based on how many currently are logged in

nova umbra
#

Does how much you participated in a fate affect your legendary yokai drop rate?

twilit arch
#

and that kind of information is not something we have

full juniper
#

Thx for the info

twilit arch
#

no, so long as you're getting silver/gold iirc you should have a chance of getting legendary medal

#

rng is rng

nova umbra
#

Bronze gives nothing?

tepid stag
#

I saw someone with an axe with two balls swirling around it, does anyone know the glamour?

twilit arch
#

if i remember correctly, yeah

#

that sounds like alexander axe

faint flare
#

From A12S

twilit arch
#

!iglam Alexandrian Metal Axe

zinc orbitBOT
twilit arch
#

doesn't really show off the balls but they're there

mossy tartan
#

I don’t see an option in any of the 4 NPCs in western ||eulmore|| to get an augmented neo-ishgardian gear piece

twilit arch
#

Hillicen is the npc to talk to to augment neo-ish

mossy tartan
#

Thank you

wary forge
#

Where do I go to get Scaevan gear augmented? I went to the Calamity Salvager in Limsa but there's no option to trade it in like the patch notes said there should be.

twilit arch
#

the option is under "deal in spoils"

lone zephyr
#

Can i do gold saucer stuff or however the place is called on free trial?

twilit arch
#

its unlocked after completing sastasha

#

yes, you can. the unlock quest for gold saucer is in ul'dah @lone zephyr

#

yes, party finder is unlocked after sastasha

leaden ginkgo
#

@twilit arch I just wanted to confirm, I was able to upgrade my ironworks gear with Drake by using the carboncoat/twine materials.
I guess it's now safe to dispose of the leftovers? (I also have Encrypted Tomestones)

vestal needle
#

reminder that party cannot be created unless you are sub

twilit arch
#

yeah

vestal needle
#

!poetics

twilit arch
#

no reason to keep any extras, nor the tomestone since you can't exchange for the weapon itself anymore

wary forge
#

The lack of the ability to get unaugmented Shire and Scaevan Rings is honestly a pretty terrible thing while they're still Unique.

twilit arch
#

can just buy the primal/dai-ryumayku gear

#

not really the end of the world

wary forge
#

Are those also purchased with Poetics?

twilit arch
#

yes

fervent silo
#

i'm trying to launch the game but it tells me i dont have a file called dxgi.dll...what do i do?

vestal needle
#

Is there a gear progression guide?

queen cove
#

should be, let me grab it for you

#

Are we talking level 80?

vestal needle
#

no lv 50

#

im working through the after era

leaden ginkgo
#

So once you get all Yo-kai watch pets, can you throw the Yokai Medals?

queen cove
#

You should just grab ironworks gear and itll be the best you can have as a level 50

vestal needle
#

thanks

short sparrow
#

Does it matter which area I'm in for the Yokai FATEs?

#

It's just that you seem to get medals regardless, but there's that image in the pins which associates a given minion with a given area.

twilit arch
#

if you're getting medals for the minions itself, no it doesn't matter what area you're in

#

but when you're working on the legendary medals for the weapons you need to be in specific areas with that specific minion out

short sparrow
#

Ohhh... whoops, I didn't quite grasp that.

twilit arch
#

so if you're working on getting noko's weapon, you need to have noko out while doing fates in southern thanalan/north shroud/outer la noscea

short sparrow
#

Is there a way to know what level of fate in each zone?

#

I mean, ideally I guess I want the right level for what class I'm grinding.

halcyon glen
#

usually you can guess based on what level MSQ went there

twilit arch
#

generally whatever level the mobs in that area are, are the levels of the fates

#

or you can base in on msq, yeah

halcyon glen
#

Also that

sharp axle
#

Where do i go now to get upgrades for 70 scaevan gear?

twilit arch
#

talk to the calamity salvager in any of the three starting cities

#

they will augment shire/sceavan gear, its under the "deal in spoils"section

sharp axle
#

I only had half the full set when the patch hit

#

So i now need to find the upgrade option for 100 poetics

#

Anyone able to tell me where i go now?

faint flare
#

talk to the calamity salvager in any of the three starting cities.they will augment shire/sceavan gear, its under the "deal in spoils"section

sharp axle
#

Ahh thanks Vinyl

twilit arch
faint flare
#

Thievery success

sharp axle
#

Huh?

faint flare
#

Kael answered your question before you asked it, as of where to go

grizzled mural
#

Can I get help with my keybind

#

I want to use alt but whenever I move to the left or right it opens up Aliance chat

twilit arch
#

keybind > chat > temporarily switch chat mode to alliance and either right click to clear it or change it to a different keybind

grizzled mural
#

Gratze

half kraken
#

Can someone explain the side portals during unjoined aspect in phase 3 of E7?

sharp axle
#

Who?

half kraken
#

Iconoclasm

twilit arch
#

for normal mode?

half kraken
#

Yeah

sharp axle
#

Who is Keal?

twilit arch
#

so basically you want to get hit by the opposite colour what you are

#

and you need to pay attention to which colour goes into which portal

slate crow
#

I’d this collab just for minions and weapons?

half kraken
#

Yes

#

And a mount

slate crow
#

How do I get the mount?

wary forge
#

Fashion only iLVL 1 or actual weapons?

twilit arch
#

so if you're black at the start, you need to be hit by white. If white goes into the red portal and black goes into blue you want to get hit by blue because you were switched at the start to white

#

once you've gotten the achievements for the mounts, talk to jonathas in gridania @slate crow

slate crow
#

So it has nothing to do with the fates?

twilit arch
#

You still need to do the fates to get the medals requires to get the minions/weapons

half kraken
#

Level 30 weapons

twilit arch
#

but once you've done that, the mounts themselves will be gotten from jonathas because they're tied to the achievements

half kraken
#

So just fashion

slate crow
#

So I have to get all minions? That’ll take a while.

faint flare
#

Not really

twilit arch
#

yeah, its actually decently quick this time tbh

faint flare
#

The medal for minions is guaranteed

#

So you only need like...50? Fates

#

In total

twilit arch
#

The weapons are going to take more time ultimately

#

since those are rng

Weapons are 5 medals.

faint flare

For the first one

#

10 after that

wary forge

Where do we report Kupo Bot for off-topic in this channel?

faint flare
#

The first mount is for all minions (easy), second is for 13 weapons, third for 17 (all) weapons

slate crow
#

Fudge.

twilit arch
#

take your time with this event

#

its going to be around for 3mos or so

half kraken
#

Oh there's two more mounts?

twilit arch
#

ye

half kraken
#

Are they as lame as the first?

slate crow
#

How long is Monster Hunter?

faint flare
#

One for minions is whisper mount, 13 weap mount is glowing whisper, all weap mounts is the Jibranyan couch

twilit arch
#

Monster hunter is perm

half kraken
#

13 weapons is way too much of a grind

magic light
#

go grind 17 now

half kraken
#

I did 60 fates and got two weapons

faint flare
#

I got 8 weapons in like 9 hours

#

🤷‍♂️

#

Rng ahoy

half kraken
#

I mean yeah those 60 fates took me like 2 hours

#

So it tracks

south plank
#

doing the monk quest, should I ||help widargelt?||

half kraken
#

Doesn't matter

#

Story is the same

south plank
#

wow really? lol

leaden ginkgo
#

I keep getting Please contact the SQUARE ENIX Support Center for additional details.
Error Code: i2501 but i'm not using a VPN or anything anyone know why

half kraken
#

Your choices don't really affect the game ever

south plank
#

yeah I've heard that

#

guess I'm just surprised that's the case for such a binary option

#

guess I'll see how they spin it one way or the other

half kraken
#

When is this option I forgot

south plank
#

level 45 monk quest

twilit arch
#

try using a different browser or mobile data @leaden ginkgo

#

if neither of those work, you'll have to contact support, i2501 is a super broad error that sometimes fixes itself. other times have to deal with support

leaden ginkgo
#

hm ok

twilit arch
#

there's no one fix for it :\

fervent silo
#

i'm trying to launch the game but it tells me i dont have a file called dxgi.dll...what do i do?

dusk merlin
#

Is something other than the minion being out required for the legendary event tokens? I've gotten gold on numerous fates in the correct zone and nothing

half kraken
#

You have to equip the yokai watch

#

It's in the bracelet slot

dusk merlin
#

I have that equipped too

#

I get the regular tokens no problem

twilit arch
#

rng is rng

granite swan
#

Anyone done the Mog Trials? Up do i get up top? I cant find a way up

dusk merlin
#

Legendary tokens are rng?

twilit arch
#

yes

half kraken
#

Yes

dusk merlin
#

Gross

half kraken
#

Like 20%

dusk merlin
#

I'll just go for the minions then, thanks for the tip

half kraken
#

You should get at least two weapons if not three while getting all the minions

dusk merlin
#

Why is that?

half kraken
#

Rng evens out

twilit arch
#

@granite swan there's a ramp on the west...ish side of the area where the mog chief is

half kraken
#

Cos you need like 60 regular medals for all minions

granite swan
#

@twilit arch Thanks i was looking outside :p

dusk merlin
#

That would mean having to stay in the correct zone though

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a way to copy a hotbar from a HUD layout to another layout?

half kraken
#

Not a major issue

#

Also a lot are in the same area

#

Like say you want gnb and dnc weapons, both are in the exact same zones

#

All you have to do is swap minions

dusk merlin
#

I'm also using it to level my arcanist so the selection is limited

old crypt
#

Does anyone know where to get the aether compass after purchasing the stormblood story skip?

twilit arch
#

gaufrid is in rhaglr's reach, gibrilliont in ishgard

peak flax
#

i recently downloaded gshade, how the heck do i hide this thing away. sorry not ffxiv really question

#

nevermind found it

old crypt
#

all gibrillont has is a quest titled drinking the pain away and has no option for getting an aether compass

twilit arch
#

you need to do that side quest before you can get the compass from him

old crypt
#

oh nvm I just got the option

#

thanks a ton

granite swan
#

Is there a way to turn off this Brightness/Darkness stuff? Like my screen seems to change dark/bright mid combat and its annoying

earnest echo
#

About 49 standard medals, I'm guessing?

cold folio
#

Would I ask here regarding an installation issue?

#

My friend’s trying to install the game, however everytime her download reaches 12% it says ‘Unable to download patch files’ and instantly closes
is there a fix?

granite swan
#

maybe tech help would be better?

solemn halo
#

so I have a friend that needs to complete Praetorium and I need to complete MSQ roulette, is there anyway that I can make sure I get Praetorium if we all queue for MSQ roulette?

earnest echo
#

My first assumption is space or admin priv

dusk merlin
#

There wouldn't happen to be a way to cheese past the rng of the legendary medals would there?

cold folio
#

Ah okay I’ll ask her about those and if thats not what’s causing it, i’ll see into tech :) ty

twilit arch
#

You could do fates as blu mage to do them faster

#

but that's about it

dusk merlin
#

damn, oh well

earnest echo
#

Dancer seems to do well too

ivory pewter
#

hey question im a max lvl drk and war here i want to do some mount farming trials and end game raids but i dont want to leave my fc who are real chill bros does anyone got a discord i can go to and join for this?

dusk merlin
#

it's the lack of fates that poses the biggest problem

twilit arch
#

there's 3 zones per weapons (more if you're doing shb/sb jobs)

karmic niche
#

what do i do when the tank dc and never come back?

twilit arch
#

kick them and try to find a replacement

karmic niche
#

while in the dungeon?

#

can we do that

#

?

dusk merlin
#

I'm bouncing between western and upper la noseca, the fates get knocked out way too quickly and don't regen fast enough

twilit arch
#

yes, assuming its not a premade group

karmic niche
#

oh ok

leaden ginkgo
#

i got dc and the launcher isnt loading for me ._. did servers go down or something

ivory pewter
#

are there no raid or mount farming discords you can join but dont have to join there guild?

nope

#

server up and running

fervent silo
#

does anyone know where ffxiv saves the backup file by default?

frosty galleon
#

does anyone knows where to get a luminous crystals

twilit arch
#

you need to do fates in heavensward zones

frosty galleon
#

every fates in havensward

#

?

twilit arch
#
- Azys Lla: luminous fire crystals
- Churning Mists: luminous lightning crystals
- Coerthas western highlands: luminous ice crystals
- Dravanian forelands: luminous earth crystals
- Dravanian hinterlands: luminous water crystals```

any fates in those zones has a chance of giving the appropriate crystal

I hear yokai fate farming is also good for atma farming. I haven't gone far into my first relic weapon yet, how long would it take to get to the atma stage so that I can farm it while also farming yokai weapons? Is it feasible?

Hi does anybody know how to fix the problem in which neither the website or the launcher works? I was doing a dungeon and it seems I lost connection of the game (internet was working fine) and after that I have been unable to log, and I cannot enter neither the mogstation, or the lodestone, or any ffxiv related website

burnt flicker
#

try doing a router hard reset, you might have a ghost connection

#

or easier thing to do atm, reset your computer

junior perch
#

did both of them already

but its weird bc everything works

but FF xiv launcher or websites

What’s a good way to find a raid group for specific raids

glacial oasis
#

I keep looking up information about classes, does choosing my class matter THAT much when it finally comes to raids? I like Machinist so far but I see comments about how some raids just won't let you join if ur not a "meta" class like summoner. I just don't wanna learn the 2 minute rotation, I wanna shooty shooty

granite swan
#

Id say it probly depends on your FC and if you plan to do max tier raiding

glacial oasis
#

I'm babi level 50 right now so not anytime soon

granite swan
#

Theres always gonna be that elite group that is like ... you need to be xyz and pushing 1892986 dps

Should I just give up wanting to main MCH?

Could anyone help me when it comes to setting up the multiple rows of keys?

Right now I am doing shift and control for rwos 2 and 3 and kinda hurts my fingers sometimes

I was thinking maybe putting it on my mouse buttons

#

I have 2 side mouse ones

granite swan
#

dont see why not, if you can get your muscle memory to remember it

glacial oasis
#

It just hurts to press control alot lol

leaden ginkgo
#

Try alt as well

#

Ctrl is horrible for me too

short sparrow
#

It's too much a stretch from Ctrl to the middle numbers, right?

granite swan
#

can use the keys around WASD

glacial oasis
#

Or to like slap my palm on it

short sparrow
#

Ctrl-1, I'm fine, Ctrl-6, I don't love it.

granite swan
#

keybind to rty/fgh/zxcvb ?

#

should help some also

glacial oasis
#

I might try ALT for control

#

Shift isn't bad

granite swan
#

I never thought to try my mouse side button as a function for that, but thats a good idea :p

#

not like the button is used for anything and my thumb is right there heh

glacial oasis

I mean, yeah lol

is there a way to disable the chocobo music when you're on a chocobo? if i have to keep hearing this song i'll going to self cannibalize

granite swan
#

I think the biggest thing holding PoTD back now is free trial dont know they can do it past 1-10

grim pivot
#

Quicc question, sorry for busting in through your discussion, how much content is there compared to 70-80 levelling once I hit 80?

slow tendon
#

I'm trying to put together an elementalist/green mage/nature glamour for RDM. Any suggestions for a good starting point chest wise?

glacial oasis
#

@brave ravine System config, sounds, uncheck play music when mounted

little swift
#

@glacial oasis people telling you a job is bad are silly all jobs can do all content fine

brave ravine
#

omg thanks

glacial oasis
#

But the DPS and stuff? @little swift I keep seeing on like tier lists Machinist bad Summoner S tier

little swift
#

@grim pivot you open up a 8 floors of the 8-man raid, 2-floors of the 24-man, like 6 dungeons, several trials and their EX versions

#

and a bunch more msq

leaden ginkgo
#

But a patch will shuffle that anyway @glacial oasis

little swift
#

But the DPS and stuff? @little swift I keep seeing on like tier lists Machinist bad Summoner S tier
@glacial oasis tier lists are stupid here

#

i'm not even joking

leaden ginkgo
#

Just use the job that has a theme and style you enjoy

little swift
#

statistically the percentage difference in dps is so low

grim pivot
#

how much more MSQ? Im currently at the point where ||Vaulthry told Crystarium why they attacked with their Sin Eaters||

glacial oasis
#

I like my yeehaw overheat guns

little swift
#

that you could just get good to make up the difference

#

you're close to the end of 5.0

#

like 2 dungeons and 2 trials

glacial oasis
#

Thanks, I was worried that I would have to drop it to win raids and stuff when I finally get there

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

grim pivot
#

Nice

little swift
#

its not wow here

#

there's no large gap between dps

glacial oasis
#

o

little swift
#

the difference is low

glacial oasis
#

That's great

#

Coo, so I can use the yeehaw

little swift
#

and tier lists you see on youtube are stupid

#

i'm looking at you desperius

grim pivot
#

He does mention every minute or so that the difference is marginal and you can play everything

little swift
#

yeah but not everyone listens to that

#

they just look at it

glacial oasis
#

*me(

#

Lol

little swift
#

and take it for face value

grim pivot
#

thats on not everyone then, not on Desperius

little swift
#

but his videos articulate it as something that matters

#

even if he himself says it doesn't

#

i respect his ACT setup video

#

and his glam showcases

#

but not a lot of his "guides"

grim pivot
#

There are tierlists of subjective opinions on the hotness of League of Legends champions, you can make a Tierlist of this too no problem

little swift
#

but the difference between the "hotness" topic vs something like dps

#

is that there's data behind the dps numbers

#

that said the data also shows that "non-meta" jobs clear on equal terms

grim pivot
#

Sure but the bigger issue, if we go this route, imo is people constantly saying how tight DPS checks are. If its so tight why can you play machinists and heal on a Paladin for a few seconds

little swift
#

the dps checks are tight because people can't do their rotations correctly

#

and aren't optimizing uptime

#

it isn't about the jobs

glacial oasis
#

I just wish BLM was a little more interesting, I like the explosions but it's slooowwwwww

grim pivot
#

Maybe, but you cant say "DPS checks are horrendously unforgiving" and then complain about a DPS tierlist

#

Thats not how it works

#

maybe to the endgame player it does, but not to everyone else

little swift
#

dps checks are tight because of gear and bad rotational uptime

#

it has nothing to do with job tierlists

leaden ginkgo
#

Eh even if it's a 0.01% difference some people enjoy that so why hate on it

#

I know a few people who enjoy finding out which job is best and learning it

glacial oasis
#

Cause meta can cause players like myself to avoid classes they love?

grim pivot
#

I like watching them, I get to hear an opinion on classes like I would otherwise only find it on a 2 hour podcast

leaden ginkgo
#

Well this game doesn't need you to avoid the job you love

little swift
#

i'm not saying you can't watch a content creators content

#

not at all

#

i just wouldn't consider a lot of it as "guide" worthy

leaden ginkgo
#

I agree

little swift
#

its more like they have an opinion and thats fine to have

leaden ginkgo
#

XIV seems to lack good content creators

little swift
#

but some people push their opinions as fact

grim pivot
#

To me Desperius' videos dont sound like a guide at all, at least the tierlist ones, and I say that as a new player that needs guides for almost everything

little swift
#

and that isn't okay

grim pivot
#

Ye I agree on that one. Its one of the things that ruined WoW for me

#

"No you cant play this, you have to play that"
Meanwhile Im above them in HPS

little swift
#

a lot of desperius' old "guides" had some wacky openers that he pushed as really good

#

which is what soured my opinion of him

#

otherwise he works hard at his content

grim pivot
#

Im gonna pretend I didnt read that one. Wtf

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah came out pretty harsh

#

Point is he makes it obvious in his tier lists they aren't necessary

grim pivot
#

Yes but he even says so multiple times throughout the video

#

He might push his opinion a bit too much but he makes it clear its an opinion

leaden ginkgo
#

I am agreeing with you

#

He mentions it a lot

little swift
#

he didn't before

#

but people did give him a bit of trouble for it

#

i'm not hating on him at all i do think a lot of what he has is fine but there are definitely lots of better resources out there for guides and such

crimson notch
#

is there any additional files i need to download after switching from trial to complete from the launcher?

little swift
#

yes

#

you download the rest of the game

#

namely stormblood and shadowbringers files

crimson notch
#

may i know how big is it?

#

will be running out of data in a few days

little swift
#

the whole game is roughly 50gb?

crimson notch
#

oh no

little swift
#

you should have some of it already

#

a decent amount

#

you have ARR and HW

#

so thats like half of it

#

plus a good chunk of the data is downloaded because of people's gear and such

glacial oasis
#

After buying the full game on steam my friend can't start the game it gets stuck

warped nest
#

@glacial oasis Your friend need to register the game

solemn shard
#

Is there a way to disable mount music? I want to hear the zone music not the same music over and over :S

next jay
#

hi, how do i check my progress in the last yokai fate train?

burnt flicker
#

buy/farm more unique mounts

wary forge
#

Which zone has the highest FATE levels and is able to give the basic medals for the yokai thing?

#

(Also, why did they not make Eureka NMs drop medals?)

little swift
#

Is there a way to disable mount music? I want to hear the zone music not the same music over and over :S
@solemn shard its under sound settings

#

under duty > collection > yokai medallium you can check your minions and such

#

also medals are in your inventory

next jay
#

oh there is new yokai

glacial oasis
#

@warped nest Yeah but he can't even start the game, it just sits on downloading cause he has to demo downloaded

next jay
#

dang i deleted my medals already

#

how to check the weapon?

#

the casino?

wary forge
#

Which zone has the highest level FATEs for yokai medals?

twilit hazel
#

Game is constantly trying to download in C drive even tho the launcher is at D drive(downloaded through steam) no option to change download path ,i only have 17 gb in C,Any help will be appreciated .

burnt flicker
#

I think you go to the launcher settings themselves and change the install location

twilit hazel
#

no i cant find such option

lone violet
#

Do mounts drop like regular loot and you roll for them ?

green grail
#

usually yeah

#

but not all mounts are drops from bosses

ponder I keep doing MSQ with SMN/SCH, should I play other jobs in order to save up EXP quests, so it won’t waste a capped job lvl? ponder

burnt flicker
#

WHM is good 😉

granite swan
#

Depends how far into story you are. once u beat ARR, all the quests between arr and hw give like 4500 xp, so not a total loss

quaint forge
#

Post expansions usually give you less XP that point

granite swan
#

oh i didnt see 73, ur not free trial capped :p i dunno then

burnt flicker
#

in all honesty, if you have access to duties, those are best way to lvl up classes

acoustic osprey
#

anyone knows what is the best way to find parties to do duty roulette level 50 - 70

#

i just unlocked that

quaint forge
#

I check the MSQ quest line on web, the conclusion of 68-70 is near for me

frank ridge
#

Just queue?

quaint forge
#

Just do queue

burnt flicker
ivory trout
#

where can i find stat priority for things

acoustic osprey
#

it says i need to gather a party in order to queue

#

for some reason also saying i didn't meet the requirements

frank ridge
#

What requirements you don't meet then

#

iLv?

quaint forge
#

iLv= Item Level

frank ridge
#

where can i find stat priority for things
@ivory trout The Balance

acoustic osprey
#

nah i have iLv of 61

#

really am not sure

frank ridge
#

What does it say ._.

quaint forge
#

How much iLv requirement

ivory trout
#

ty

frank ridge
#

It usually tells you

ivory trout
#

wwhere is the balance

acoustic osprey
#

it just says unable to register, two or more duty requirements unmet

#

and the requirement is 45

frank ridge
#

!thebalance

#

what was the command again

#

!faq balance

zinc orbitBOT
frank ridge
#

Here

next jay
#

oww so the new one need high lv to do the fate train

#

oof

frank ridge
#

it just says unable to register, two or more duty requirements unmet
@acoustic osprey Have you unlocked any dungeon in the roulette

burnt flicker
#

at ilvl of 61, they should have at least did some of the early MSQ progression dungeons

acoustic osprey
#

yep i did, i unlocked a few lvl 50s dungeons

#

and fought gaius already

frank ridge
#

Gaius is like the beginning of lv50 no?

#

So the dungeons after that

burnt flicker
#

question, you a free trial user Azure?

acoustic osprey
#

nope, do i have to do the ones after that

frank ridge
#

Yes

acoustic osprey
#

nah im not

#

what, ok so basically i have to unlock all the dungeons form 50 - 70

quaint forge
frank ridge
#

By Lv50 dungeons, I mean the ones that you can only go to unlock it after you hit 50

#

The list is up there

burnt flicker
#

nope, my character is only lvl 64, but I can do some of the dungeons

frank ridge
#

If you have unlocked at least two of those then you can queue

acoustic osprey
#

so i need to unlock ALL level 50 dungeons before i can queue for that

frank ridge
#

No, at least two

quaint forge
#

Most of them I remember are bluequest

acoustic osprey
#

does the ones from MSQ counts

quaint forge
#

Accept all the blue quests for expanding the roulette

frank ridge
#

Snowcloak does IIRC

burnt flicker
#

found out the requirements

#

access to this Duty Roulette requires unlocking a minimum of 2 of the included dungeons. Players must also have an average item level of 90 or greater.

#

for the 50/60/70 dungeon roulette

frank ridge
#

So does The Keeper of the Lake

acoustic osprey
#

it says average iLv of 45 is needed though

#

for me

burnt flicker
#

you should be able to do duty roulette leveling without any issues

acoustic osprey
#

but if the lvl 50 dungeons from MSQ doesn't count then i know why

frank ridge
#

That's why I'm asking you if you have unlocked these dungeons

acoustic osprey
#

rn i have 3 lvl 50s unlocked 2 from MSQ

frozen karma
#

what's the go-to armour set for a fresh lvl80 chara? neo ishgardian or something else?

acoustic osprey
#

so if MSQ doesn't count then i know why

burnt flicker
acoustic osprey
#

yea so MSQ ones don't count

#

imma just stick to the MSQ and leveling ones then

slate crow
#

are all Yokai minions 3 coins?

frank ridge
#

what's the go-to armour set for a fresh lvl80 chara? neo ishgardian or something else?
@frozen karma You can get i430 from Grenoldt in The Tempest for free.

burnt flicker
#

tbh, I unlocked some of these dungeons simply because class quest demanded so

frozen karma
#

@frank ridge is that post ShB story?

frank ridge
#

If you progress through MSQ you will unlock the roulette evetually

acoustic osprey
#

the system didn't really state clearly that MSQ ones doesn't count as well, but whatever i know that now

frank ridge
#

@frank ridge is that post ShB story?
@frozen karma No it's just before the final dungeon

frozen karma
#

that's the job gear right? or something else?

frank ridge
#

Yes

frozen karma
#

how far will that take me in terms of what I can do with it for raids and trials?

leaden ginkgo
#

Are relic weapons one continuous quest?

slate crow
#

And what are tomestomes of phantasmagoric used for?

frank ridge
#

Or you can just buy Neo Ishgardian from Market Board I heard it's cheap now

old crypt
#

Any recommended party configuration for running a duo fixed party in PoTD?

frank ridge
#

And what are tomestomes of phantasmagoric used for?
@slate crow For i460/470 gear and some crafting materials

old crypt
#

from floor 1 to 50, adn we're both sprouts

frank ridge
#

Are relic weapons one continuous quest?
@leaden ginkgo It's a questline so there are multiple quests.

obsidian patio
#

If you're asking if they connect between expansions, no.

leaden ginkgo
#

So the previous must be done to get to the end

#

But only within expansion

obsidian patio
#

yep.

rugged flicker
#

What's stats should I be supplementing with materia for Gunbreaker?

formal condor
#

can Tsukuyomi's weapon and suzaku'weapon desynthesis out stuff that glowing version required

obsidian patio
#

@rugged flicker SKS to preferred GCD > Crit > DH > Det. Ignore DH if you also play warrior

formal condor
#

I desynthesised out seiryu's scale once.but never have seen feather

obsidian patio
#

Unlike the other tanks GNB is comfortable at varying GCD speeds instead of preferring a certain range

rugged flicker
#

I am still clueless on how to adjust for GCD, it's pretty much a foreign language to me.

obsidian patio
#

You can probably ignore it in Gunbreaker's case, since they don't really have a "required" GCD speed to do their burst

rugged flicker
#

Never done tank before, might as well be telling me how to assemble a particle accelerator from scratch.

slate crow
#

Which thing does Ixali need for beast tribe? DoH or DoL?

rugged flicker
#

Hand

#

So are you saying I shouldn't bother with skillspeed at all?

obsidian patio
#

some quests do want you to be a miner/botanist/fisher for a step of them

#

but you don't need higher than 15

#

but in the end they all want a crafter

#

@rugged flicker pretty much, yeah.

rugged flicker
#

So just put everything on Crit?

obsidian patio
#

wherever it can fit, yes. and where it doesn't fit you put det or DH

little swift
#

Gnb has a preferred range of 2.45 to 2.40 but it plays fine at anything you're comfortable with

rugged flicker
#

Like outfit it as if it was for DPS.

acoustic osprey
#

wow i didn't know you can leap off the rock from titan fight

#

and i just died liek that like an idiot

rugged flicker
#

Yeah you can get knocked off too

acoustic osprey
little swift
#

And you stay that way too until the fight ends

frank ridge
#

Healers can't res you if you fall as well

#

XD

little swift
#

They fix out of arena deaths later

acoustic osprey
#

i was leaping around thought there was some invisible wall

#

but noope

little swift
#

You'll spawn on the platform dead
