Short form: dungeons and roulettes

jovial sierra
#

where do you get the yokai event mounts?

faint flare
#

Check the pins

#

Infographic tells you

jovial sierra
#

ty

verbal forge
#

btw does after ARR story questline give me something good enough for HW story/dungeon content?

faint flare
#

It leads and builds up for it

#

The story is linear

waxen owl
#

i'm trying to unlock low level leves to level gathering jobs, and i got a trial leve that requires me to weaken level 20 enemies - i don't have any low level combat jobs, any way around this?

faint flare
#

Remove gear

#

Like basically all of it

#

And use weak skills

#

Depending on how much damage you end up doing

#

Or just go buy a low level weapon

obsidian patio
#

You can also switch to a gathering class and auto-attack

waxen owl
#

yeah no gear wasn't enough

#

that works though

#

thanks

lime geode
#

A couple months in and I've just cleared 5.0 - yay! I have the i430 set - should I follow the 5.1/5.2 guides out there for gearing or has it changed for 5.3?

faint flare
#

More or less yes. 5.3 only really added upgrading neo ishgardian and i490 gear weekly from Puppet bunker

#

And more accessible allegory upgrades

#

Otherwise gearing hasn't changed much

remote lintel
#

Eden gate raids are i450
Eden verse and neo ish is i480
crystarium and augmented neo ish is i490

#

savage and augmented crystarium is i500

ember goblet
#

do i clip 2 glares with assize in between when its off cd

faint flare
#

Yes

ember goblet
#

or do i use lily/dia?

faint flare
#

Assize is so good that clipping glare is worth it

vague narwhal
#

Can i matchmake with a party to do POTD?

remote lintel
#

yes

vague narwhal
#

ty

#

its not on duty finder tho

#

odd

remote lintel
#

it's in quarrymill

#

npc

honest ocean
#

do we know what patch 5.3 hotfixes is going to be about? is it possible it'll nerf blue in fates for yo kai events?

vague narwhal
#

oh ok

dim ridge
#

you have to queue from the place

#

both deep dungeons are that way

vague narwhal
#

oh ok

leaden ginkgo
#

@honest ocean by the time the patch is out people will prob stopped using blu for it

oblique delta
#

once I have all minions and weapons from the Yo-kai watch event can I delete the medals ?

faint flare
#

whmQ How do I weave Assize Assize ?

Every other one, starting with your first, should naturally line up with dia. for the ones that don't you have a few options:
• Weave it with an afflatus skill (solace, rapture, or misery)
however doing so when you don't need this to heal, double weave, or move is a bit of a toss up and heavily fight and lily subjective.
• Weave it with a needed and useful regen
• Hard clip Glare with it @ember goblet

twilit arch
#

its very unlikely that they're going to touch Blue

#

its a hotfix, they're more likely going to be fixing one of the myriad "known issues" listed in the patch nnotes

#

or something like frontlines not giving exp that it should be

honest ocean
#

i see

#

i hope that's the case tbh

leaden ginkgo
#

but yeah by like a week, people will prob stop using blu

faint flare
#

Plus BLU is meant to be strong

ember goblet
#

ty

leaden ginkgo
#

since all the people who want it really fast are using blu rn

twilit arch
#

open world content is blu's wheel house

#

there's no reason for them to mess with it

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah, tbh that's literally their role

prisma nymph
#

They won’t fix blue mage though I would like them to just rip that job apart and remake it

#

Limited jobs are not a good idea. This is the proof

faint flare
#

This is the only way it works otherwise its just isn't blue mage

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah otherwise it's literally useless

twilit arch
#

This is also not the channel to discuss it

leaden ginkgo
#

and I dislike blu as much as the next person

delicate stone
faint flare
#

Yes

remote lintel
#

check your bis

faint flare
#

+3 weapon damage blows everything out the water

#

There's no argument what so ever

delicate stone
#

okie ouo b, bis i think is the savage weapon which is a bit far out of reach

#

gotcha, wasnt sure how muc weapon damage mattered, still pretty new to stats

faint flare
#

Weapon damage is king

mossy tartan
#

How much does Southern Seas Vest cost in €? Can’t access the mogstation at the moment

faint flare
#

+1 weapon damage makes it incredibly more desirable. +2 is basically guaranteed to be better 99% of the time

delicate stone
#

ah i see, I'll keep that in mind!

remote lintel
#

about 2 euro I think?

#

3 usd is like 2.5 euro

mossy tartan
#

thank you

delicate stone
#

so i'm new to content release cycle and never grinded a relic weapon before... do people think that the relic weapon (next or later stage) will be better than the current savage weapon?

faint flare
#

No

deft quiver
#

wheres that 495 weapon from?

faint flare
#

It wont be until the end of the expansion

#

The new Extreme

remote lintel
#

the new ex

delicate stone
#

the new ex trial

deft quiver
#

oh ok

wicked blade
twilit arch
#

relic weapons are generally not going to be better than savage until the end of expansion

faint flare
#

The upgrade in 5.35 will be around 495

delicate stone
#

mmm, so is it pretty much just something to work with until you do savage?

faint flare
#

And wont match savage until like 5.55

#

Relic is the Casual endgame weapon

prisma nymph
#

Sometime if you have a vpn it can mess with the store

delicate stone
#

ahhh, gotcha

twilit arch
#

there are a few cases where it was more desirable but generally its going to be something you use to hold you over until you get tomestone or savage weapon

karmic niche
#

wth

#

you missed the sale

remote lintel
#

@wicked blade did you turn off any ad/pop up blockers or try using another browser

wicked blade
#

yeah i tried microsoft edge as well 😦

sick knot
#

is there anything I can do with my excess Yo-Kai Medals and Legendary Yo-Kai Medals?

faint flare
#

No

dusty tundra
#

I use microsoft edge because I'm edgy xd

#

😳

remote lintel
#

did you enter your billing address and stuff into your SE store account

sharp meteor
#

is eureka a valid way of leveling with the echo buff?

faint flare
#

It doesn't give xp for outside jobs

twilit arch
#

eureka is not for leveling

#

the only experience you gain in eureka is elemental levels

atomic mesa
#

Is the current dragonsung tool step suppose to be the last?

faint flare
#

No. It will be upgraded over the expansion

heady knot
#

well shit im lvl 46 need some lvls for 49

#

any sugguestion where to grind lvls

faint flare
#

Daily roulettes and highest level dungeon spam (dzaemal and aurum vale)

sharp meteor
#

isnt potd faster?

twilit arch
#

only if your queue times are 15+minutes

warped nest
#

Don't forget that potd can result in a wipe and you gain no exp

heady knot
#

whats potd?

warped nest
#

Palace of the Dead and Heavens on High are the deep dungeon

#

Deep dungeon is rogue like dungeon

#

With random rooms arrangement per floor and every 10th floor is a boss

brave ravine
#

does it give loot or exp?

warped nest
#

The primary purpose is to gain rewards

remote lintel
#

yes

warped nest
#

It has a nifty secondary purpose in leveling jobs because it gives exp every set of 10 floors you clear

quaint forge
#

Can NPC squadrons use Revive spells to other dead NPCs?

remote lintel
#

yes

warped nest
#

It is recommended for DPS jobs because going into POTD doesn't require a standard party formation

#

Which reduces your queue time

quaint forge
#

Cecily is acting like Donald Duck moments for not helping Hastaloeya

robust crow
#

anyone know if shroud soil affects allagan melons?

warped nest
#

normal dungeons are still preferable if your queue time on that not longer than 10-15 minutes compared to your potd queue

quaint forge
#

Anyway good to know and ty

warped nest
#

Example potd queue time 3 minutes, dungeon queue time 17 minutes

#

Dungeons still worth it

brave ravine
#

but you'd have to agree as a group when to quit potd right?

remote lintel
#

no

#

you can leave every 10th floor individually

warped nest
#

Nope, every set of 10 floors is done

remote lintel
#

it matchmakes again

warped nest
#

You can leave and get exp

brave ravine
#

i see

warped nest
#

A rarely mentioned thing about potd is

#

If you wipe before you kill the boss, you get no exp

#

You can be on the 8th floor of that set

#

Still doesn't get exp

brave ravine
#

and the boss + its ability all random?

warped nest
#

Nope

remote lintel
#

bosses are set

warped nest
#

It is not that random

#

Even the rooms are pulled from a pool of pre-made formations and setup

#

Oh, potd/hoh doesn't check your actual gear

#

You can just waltz in there with just a weapon (which makes it better than normal dungeons)

#

Your power is determined by how many aetherpool you gathered

#

In the deep dungeon

brave ravine
#

Torghast in shadowlands expansion looks like an exact copy of POTD implementation

warped nest
#

I have no idea what that is

remote lintel
#

lmao

warped nest
#

But potd is basically a Rogue like

#

This is the general high level concept of it

#

There are a lot of additional stuff like: pomanders (in dungeon items), etc

remote lintel
#

potd is also based off a side quest and is implemented into the lore

#

namely Tam Tara deepcroft hard

#

spooky lore

sharp meteor
#

is it just me or does DRG have a lot of buttons? I usually play SMN or AST

remote lintel
#

smn has more things to press frantically

#

so does ast

sharp meteor
#

PepoThink off GCD stuff? feels like i'm playing a piano with DRG

remote lintel
#

!faq drgopener

zinc orbitBOT
remote lintel
#

not that much

#

it's all single weave except that one

leaden ginkgo
#

Can deciphered maps expire?

#

Like.
Decipher and a map, and not use it for a day or two, will you still have it?

strange coral
#

They do not expire

restive relic
#

hey guys, question. im level 52, would i level faster with raids in my duty queue or should i only queue for the roulettes and dungeons my level?

idle sentinel
#

So I have my warrior to 80 and just got machinist to 80. Was gonna do a healer next to have 1 of each. What would be the recommendations I've never done anything healer at all

remote lintel
#

white mage

little swift
#

easiest to pick up and do decently would be white mage

strange coral
#

@restive relic Outside of daily roulette, raids wont give you much exp

remote lintel
#

@restive relic raids barely give any exp

#

do roulettes and highest lvl dungeon

restive relic
#

ok, it says the roulette gives 13.2k exp for completing, but i finish a raid my level and get like 400k

remote lintel
#

roulette gives the bonus at the end

idle sentinel
#

I can learn them fairly well I think, is there any reason to choose the others over white mage?

warped nest
#

Roulette has 2 bonus

sharp meteor
#

if i level sync down to my friends level for a fate, do i get roughly the same amount of exp as a level appropriate fate?

remote lintel
#

@idle sentinel if oyu think they look cooler

warped nest
#

One of them with the specific number is the Adventurer In Need bonus

#

Which you can only get if you queue as the required role

#

The other bonus is not numbered, (this is the daily bonus)

#

Only marked by a ⬆️

idle sentinel
#

Got ya, do any of the other healers start out at a higher lvl?

remote lintel
#

ast is 30

warped nest
#

This daily bonus will be inflated to match your level

remote lintel
#

sch is tied to arcanist

idle sentinel
#

Arcanist does monk at dame time to right?

warped nest
#

Scholar is a healer job branching off the DPS Arcanist

remote lintel
#

no

#

summoner

little swift
#

fate exp is scaled to its level region

idle sentinel
#

Oh summoner and and scholar?

remote lintel
#

yes

idle sentinel
#

Hmm

little swift
#

you won't get rewards equal to your level just whatever the level of the fate is

idle sentinel
#

2 for 1 might not be bad lol

warped nest
#

Take note that you still need to gear them separately

idle sentinel
#

Yeah

warped nest
#

And you need to do both their job quests

#

The only benefit is they share exp

idle sentinel
#

But if u lvl 1 to 80 they both r 80 right?

remote lintel
#

yes

warped nest
#

Yes

idle sentinel
#

Got ya tough decisions lol

remote lintel
#

if you dont like one of them then its not really a benefit

idle sentinel
#

Yeah not sure I've only played 2 jobs so far

brave ravine
#

is there a system where you can try out a class ?

remote lintel
#

no

warped nest
#

The game does make it easy to level up other combat jobs to catch up

#

And that's it

leaden ginkgo
#

I think in the pvp area you can test some class things

remote lintel
#

not really

#

just some moves

twilit arch
#

pvp has its own set of actions

warped nest
#

And it is a high specialized set of actions

twilit arch
#

so its not really going to give you the best idea of what a lvl 80 job is going to play like

warped nest
#

Designed for burst

jagged crow
#

do you think or do we know if shadowbringers is the final dlc?

warped nest
#

It aint

jagged crow
#

That's relieving to know, I just now finished shadowbringers

keen fable
#

How long is the arr patch now?

jagged crow
#

I literally cried at 1 part

warped nest
#

Yoshi-P have talked about 6.0 on multiple occasions

#

I will admit that a game that expands its free trial might sound like trouble in the backend

#

However, the game has lvl 35 cap for free trial for years now

remote lintel
#

i cried at multiple parts in 5.3

warped nest
#

So increasing it to 60 is just a reasonable change

#

To attract in more players

#

I still think about the final sequence between the ||Amaurot|| dungeon and the credit

remote lintel
#

spoilers

warped nest
#

(I stayed up to 4am to see it all the way through)

#

Yeah, I am not writing down specifics

remote lintel
#

but the name tho

warped nest
#

Fair

thick bolt
#

Okay so I'm transfering servers tomorrow, I returned all the items being sold by my retainer, is their anything else I need to do to be able to transfer servers?

keen fable
#

not be in a FC

remote lintel
#

remove housing if you have any

keen fable
#

but ye, anyone know how long it'll take to get through ARR patch?

#

i know it changed

warped nest
#

MrHappy did a series on this topic

keen fable
#

I didn't see if he had released a video on patch

#

I know he did one on 1-50, two actually, watched those

brave ravine
#

do you mean the quests between the end of ARR and the beginning of heavensward?

keen fable
#

yea

brave ravine
#

i'm going through those atm. it's been like 12 hours and still havent hit heavensward

keen fable
#

hm

#

oh he literally uploaded the next one 3 hours ago LOL

thorny bobcat
#

I have the seals to buy a mount but it wont let me do it

twilit arch
#

are you talking to the quartermaster

thorny bobcat
#

no im talking to the porter person

#

that might be my issue

keen fable
#

@brave ravine just fyi, it took him casually 28 hours to do arr patch

twilit arch
#

You need to buy the issuance from the quartermaster first

thorny bobcat
#

ohhh

brave ravine
keen fable
#

he's taking it super slow though. prob roughly 22-24 hours really

#

anyways thank you!

#

wait. forget that, wrong part of video :v

#

that was 2.0

#

it took 19 due to cutscenes between 2.4&2.5

thick bolt
#

my retainers being on a venture is fine?

twilit arch
#

yeah they still sell whatever items are being sold

#

and can get any items they have in their storage

hearty garden
#

I accidentally threw away one of the event weapons away, is it possible to get it back somehow? I checked the recompense officer and calamity slavager, but was unable to find anything.

final shell
#

Do you need to have gotten to a certain point in Shadowbringers MSQ to unlock purchasing level 80 scrip gear for gatherers?

obsidian patio
#

Don’t think so?

final shell
#

I've hit level 80 MIN/BTN but can only see level 70 gear scrip exchange. Still in Stormblood MSQ

twilit arch
#

that would be why, you need to unlock the eulmore house of splendors

#

which means you need to get there in the shadowbringers msq

final shell
#

Ah, thankyou

#

Is that the 'endgame' area, like Idyllshire?

twilit arch
#

@compact citrus only so many fates can be up at one time, so can try clearing out other fates to help get it to spawn

#

yeah, eulmore is like idyllshire

final shell
#

OK, a fair ways to go then

potent lava
#

so for future reference
If I want to access just about everything coming out of free trial, do I buy just Shadowbringers standard or Complete Edition

twilit arch
#

you would need to buy complete edition

split jay
#

How hard is it to get the basic yokai watch mount?

twilit arch
#

not hard at all

#

the normal medals are assured drops so long as you get gold/silver on fates

granite swan
#

not that hard, just spam fates with any yokai for medals, i think u need 50 total for all the minions?

potent lava
#

ah, so free trial isnt counted as "owning" ffxiv for shadowbringers standard to work?

twilit arch
#

52 i believe

#

no, you do not own starter edition if you're on the trial

twilit abyss
#

what's the fastest to access inn room/glamour dresser from any aetheryte crystal?

twilit arch
#

gridania

faint flare
#

Uldah into squadron barracks

#

Or gridina if you're not flames

twilit abyss
#

Thanks, both of you!

granite swan
#

Can you put the Aetheryte house item in an Apartment? :p

twilit arch
#

no, apartment automatically has an aethryte crystal attached to it

granite swan
#

ah

twilit arch
#

so once you buy one you'll get the teleport option

granite swan
#

Is there any difference between them?

#

or just how they look inside?

twilit arch
#

nope

#

The only difference between them is the pillars of the room

granite swan

BLU question - Does Bristle/Flute work on the DoT component of Aqua Breath / Song of Torment? I assume not since it doesnt on SAM for Higanbana

primal relic
#

Newbie question for ppl who play tank, is there a pull limit to how many mob you can do? And whats the range on how far you can pull mob? I know at the one mining place w/ minotaur the range isn't that far, while in that underground flay boss dungen you can pull them pretty far.

simple shore
#

The pull limit is "until the dungeon doesnt let you go any further because you hit a wall"

#

lol

digital tide
#

2 mob groups is the standard

simple shore
#

Its colloquially referred to as "wall to walling" and pretty much everything post ARR is tanked that way with like one exceptions

#

2 is not standard, at all.

digital tide
#

that's what I normally do/see

primal relic
#

wall to walling? how you know if you hit a wall? is it that invisible force field thing before a big encounter?

simple shore
#

ARR dungeons are a bit different so you have to feel out what you can handle.

primal relic
#

oh okay

twilit arch
#

you'll know you hit a "wall" when the game doesn't allow you to progress any further

#

like Haukke manor, the first "wall" is the doors

digital tide
#

I got all gold and full slots on fashion report but only got 98 why?

sharp meteor
#

how do you get past captain in your GC?

twilit arch
#

did you have something equipped in all slots

primal relic
#

With these walls can you pass through it? and I assume mobs can't?

twilit arch
#

you can't go past captain at this time

#

That's...not what we mean by a wall

primal relic
#

do you mean like a literally wall? lol or is it like an invisible wall that bind mob back?

twilit arch
#

like wall to wall means grabbing all the mobs along the dungeon path until you cannot go any further until you open the path, either by killing certain mobs or using an item to open it

digital tide
#

also yeah I had something in literally every slot

twilit arch
#

like Sastasha, you could technically pull all of the mobs until you get to the first boss

#

that would be the first "wall"

#

because the game does not allow you to progress past that point until you kill the cat

primal relic
#

then how come at certain dungens, when I try to pull mob they just lose interest and walk back to their spawn? I even make sure to stop sometime and dmg them.

twilit arch
#

because they have aggro tethers

#

if you pull them past a certain point they will deaggro

#

can you post a screenshot, kawa?

deft quiver
#

whats the easiest lvl 70 extreme to farm?

twilit arch
#

susano or lakshmi probably

deft quiver
#

lakshmi is emanation?

twilit arch
#

yes

deft quiver
#

cool

#

thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

to reloacte my house, would i have to like fully empty it or can i just automatically buy a house to replace it even with furniture inside

twilit arch
#

you can relocate with everything in it, as it'll be stored in your house's storeroom

leaden ginkgo
#

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

twilit arch
#

though keep in mind if the items would exceed storeroom limit you won't be able to relocate

primal relic
#

yes the aggro tethers was what I thought, thanks i'll probably give a few dungen some times and figure it out. Hopefully party won't get mad.

digital tide
#

I got all gold and stuff equipped in all slots on fashion report but only got 98 why?

#

sorry for the repeat just didn't get answered

#

@primal relic I was busy and couldnt respond. Those "aggro tethers" only exist in ARR dungeons and only a couple of them at that. Just keep going if something aggro tethers.

you need dyes for 100? huh

#

Is it worth to augment my ironwork gear?

lavish fractal
#

once i get my glad to 30 and turn into a paladin, are there both gladiator and paly class quests? or just paly

twilit arch
#

if you already have the augment items (carbontwine/carboncoat), yes. Otherwise, no as you can no longer buy the augment items with poetics and you would have to repurchase the augmented version from the poetics vendor

#

just paladin

brave ravine
#

@lavish fractal just pally quests. you'll return to mylla eventually tho

lavish fractal
#

ok cool ty!!

deft quiver
#

is there a way to search for mount whistles on the market board?

#

like a category for it

pine phoenix
#

just noticed the language toggle on the duty finder, is it worth/make a differnce in que times if i turn all the languages on in an NA data center even if I only speak English?

#

or is that considered misuse

twilit arch
#

that's the general recommendation, actually

#

since it potentially expands the pool of people you can get matched with

#

though NA is going to be predominately english anyway

warped nest
#

In theory, it shouldn't matter, because it is like what you said, it should be mostly EN

#

But in practice, it doesn't harm you just turning all of them on

elfin kelp
#

I leveled up twice doing Stone Vigil for the first time 😄

pine phoenix
#

ok, i figured it wouldn't be a big difference on NA but i was curious bc i never noticed it before

#

thanks!

simple shore
#

Its mostly other DC's where people fall into that problem

#

like on JP datacenter if you set for E only your queues gonna be 3+ hours

heady knot
#

should i get flying mount

#

is it paid only

twilit arch
#

@deft quiver they're under miscellany, page 3

elder sinew
twilit arch
#

you only need 1 role quest chain complete

warped nest
#

@heady knot mount flying are locked behind in game progression

elder sinew
#

I'm at the wandering stairs playing as 80 tank. There's only 3 role quests there and it's healer/melee dps/ranged dps role quest

daring turret
#

Is there a active discord for hunts? For aether

warped nest
#

There is no "only these mounts can fly and most of them are paid"

twilit arch
#

Then you likely picked up the first tank role quest

heady knot
#

ok

twilit arch
#

check your completed section of your journal

#

under the class & jobs quests section, click on the drop down menu and select "Role quests"

elder sinew
#

I don't think I did any of the lvl 70 role quest

So is it only the 3 red quests at the wandering stairs or can i take one of the blue ones near "The Pendants"

where do people spam fates from 52-60

twilit arch

screenshot your quest journal

stable herald
#

I saw quite a few fate trains in hinterlands

#

Regarding RDM, what is Engagement for?

#

It seems like I trade off jumping away for a less-dps skill?

elder sinew
#

sec

twilit arch
#

engagement is if you know displacement is going to kill you

So are legendary medals just a chance? Or am I doing something wrong without knowing it

twilit arch
#

yes, legendary medals are rng

honest anvil
#

What causes the team wipe vs the last boss in the labyrinth raid of the crystal tower?

twilit arch
#

probably people greeding and not stepping on the pads to raise the barrier for ancient flare

honest anvil
#

oh? so all 8 members have to step in?

twilit arch
#

No, not all 8 have to be on the pad. but enough people from each alliance needs to get on their alliance's pad

turbid crystal

is there a way to disable the Lodestone windows that opens everytime i log in?

torn bane
#

how do you get your job armor if you boost to 70? i can't find the creed or chivalrous sets anywhere, checked the calamity salvager

stable herald
#

im very surprised that RDM's rotation is a lot different than i expected. I thought if you're doin the gap closer, you're going straight for the melee combo, but it seems otherwise?

little swift
#

your gap closer doesn't align with your melee

#

you use them independently off cooldown

#

unless manafication is up to reset it

stable herald
#

so lets say you start the fight, you just gap closer straight away?

twilit arch
#

the chivalrous set is on the calamity salvager under job specific gear lvl 70. creed gear is bought with centurio seals in ishgard @torn bane

little swift
#

use it during a weave window

stable herald
#

I was just looking at the guides, and they have a hard cast for aero or thunder first, but what if the fight just starts?

#

Ohhh

#

it means I've been doing it all wrong..

little swift
#

hardcast is for prepull

stable herald
#

But, ok, let's say normal dungeon run, you start in a fight
Don't you do Acceleration, Jolt, then start raising your mana?

little swift
#

you prepull acceleration at ~15 seconds before

#

and then hardcast aero/thunder

stable herald
#

I mean, in a case where there is no prepull preperation (like in raids/dungeons)

little swift
#

then it doesn't matter

stable herald
#

how do you start?

#

Gap closer straight away?

little swift
#

you can swiftcast aero/thunder for all that matters

#

acceleration > swift thunder/aero

#

would be fine if you really wanted procs early

stable herald
#

Because I've been doing Acceleration -> Jolt - > Thunder -> Proc -> Aero -> proc and repeat till 80

#

the i gap closer to melee, then i jump away

#

then bring mana up to 40

#

then manafication

#

repeat ad nauseum

little swift
#

you want to manafication earlier in a fight

#

so it goes on cd earlier

stable herald
#

I see

little swift
#

5gcd is usually when people get it off

stable herald
#

so I should do the gap closer.. when?

little swift
#

in dungeons it misaligns because you should be using it normally anyways

#

off cooldown

#

whenever its up

#

can be after your first dualcast if you want

stable herald
#

and what about melee

#

AoE*

little swift
#

wym by aoe

#

when to use during aoe?

#

whenever

#

its free damage

plain python
#

do food have min level requirement?

twilit arch
#

to use? no

elder sinew
#

For quest sync, can you pick it up on something like a dps, then turn in as healer for xp?

obsidian patio
#

No, quests that sync to you can only be done and turned in as the job you accepted it as.

elder sinew
#

Ah

remote lintel
#

do tiny au ra children have stubby tails like cat children

trail prairie
#

so usually the xp bar shows a blue line when there's that rested xp but now it's a more... muted gold color/

#

what's the deal with that

remote lintel
#

your rested exp goes into the next level

trail prairie
#

oh, when it's blue?

remote lintel
#

oh i got it reversed

#

yeah when its blue it goes into the next level

trail prairie
#

got it, that makes sense then, i guess it's been a really long time since i've caught up on rested xp

somber lintel
#

If me and a few friends are on the trial is there any way to do dungeons together other than hoping to get matched up?

remote lintel
#

ask someone to invite you all into a party and then leave

keen fable
#

can i not proc doublecast off of swiftcasting an ability

somber lintel
#

Alright at least I know a work around now ty

twilit arch
#

no, you can't dark

#

dualcast only works on casted spells, which swiftcast makes the next spell instant cast

keen fable
#

oh

#

lame.

#

so the only real use for it is if one of my longer casts doesn't proc, then i can use it to recast it

#

with veraero or verthunder

elfin edge
#

yeah it's for fishing for procs

#

or if you really need to verraise someone

stable herald
#

sorry @little swift , queue popped.

#

So the Corps-a-corps should always be on CD, correct?

polar hound
#

yes

little swift
#

both corp-a-corp and displacement @stable herald

stable herald
#

then do you delay a displacement if your melee combo is ready?

#

does that question make sense? namazuthink

raw solstice
#

mmm yes, you don't want to displacement in the middle of your melee combo

#

later on you get engagement which is a lower potency displacement which doesn't have the backstep

stable herald
#

like, if you had 80 mana each, do you melee first, before displacement, or just do engagement?

raw solstice
#

which if it's the difference between missing a use there's justification for weaving it in melee combo

stable herald
#

and if you're far away, do you wait for corps-a-corps to be up before going in for melee, for just go for it

raw solstice
#

well if you're just at 80/80 you'd use displacement, since you don't really lose mana until you're overcapping at 100

#

you shouldn't be too far away that you can't just move in without using cac to gap close for melee

dusk drum
#

Hmm so I used the lvl 70 skip on my WHM. I can get the Healer's artifact set, but how do I get the Cleric's set if it 's tied with the class quest?

stable herald
#

but if you use displacement, don't you delay your melee?

remote lintel
#

@dusk drum cebturio seals

stark ether
#

hi, new to the discord. so I tried upgrading to the complete collector's edition but the sqenix store's prices are regular and I can't upgrade via the mog station. Any help? non-steam edition btw

raw solstice
#

if you don't overcap, sure you delay your melee but you're not really losing out on anything

#

unless you're missing raid buffs but like, your next melee combo happens at the same time after that

heady knot
#

any recommendation for lvl up 49-50

remote lintel
#

@stark ether do you not own the dlcs

stark ether
#

@remote lintel i'm currently on the free trial so no

remote lintel
#

you need the base game and dlcs to buy collectors edition

shell dew
#

anyone know how often this game goes on sale? XD

@dusk drum cebturio seals
@remote lintel that's in heavensward right?

remote lintel

remote lintel

good morning, i am new to ff14 and i want to buy the limited offer for 7,49€. it says i should go to the mopgry station to upgrade my account.

in my mogry station i can just upgrade to fullversion for 9,99€ and i don't get shown what i will reviece for that :/ can anybody help me here?

shell dew
#

when was the last sale?

remote lintel
#

very short while ago

shell dew
#

dang

remote lintel
#

you can't buy the base game and dlc on mog station @ebon imp

#

you buy them from the SE store or steam

stark ether
#

so I need to buy the base game first, then I can upgrade to the collector's edition?

mossy tartan
#

I got my weaver to 80. What can I do now to gain Gil through the job until I level other crafters?

ebon imp
#

@remote lintel thanks :) whats the "SE Store"?

remote lintel
#

Square Enix store

#

where they sell all their games

elfin edge
#

You can't really make much money if you only have a single crafter, I think

ebon imp
#

oh i see i am asking the same as @stark ether sorry

elfin edge
#

since recipes often require cross-crafter items

remote lintel
#

can make glamour

mossy tartan
#

Okay

stable herald
#

hmm... so i guess i must have misunderstood RDM. I thought it was one of those jobs with a relatively fixed rotation, i.e. Build mana with ranged skill -> Gap closer -> Melee -> displacement. So i guess it's sorta like a blend of BLM and SMN, with a priority system and a fixed combo as well?

remote lintel
#

its basically that combo except your mana building wont always line up with gap closer and displacement

elfin edge
#

I mean, I think that's the basic RDM, and then you start building on the basics to get more DPS out

remote lintel
#

so you just use them

stable herald
#

Gap closer and displacement is just keep on CD

stark ether
#

ahh I see where I got confused, I thought the game itself was on sale. It's just the upgrade to the collector's edition. Isee

stable herald
#

and just do melee combo by moving close, rather than using the gap closer

elfin edge
#

yeah, and you can use corps-a-corps and displacement for movement as well

#

just don't be me and backflip off bismarck <_<;

leaden ginkgo
#

Wonderous tails can be done every 2 weeks right? what if I finished it the 2nd week I got it, can I get another book at the same week? or will it follow the week where I finished it?

remote lintel
#

every week

elfin edge
#

There's a new book every week

ebon imp
#

@remote lintel i can just buy the starter edition for 9,99€ in the SE Store. Not the limited Offer with every DLC (up to shadowbrigners) for 7,49€. Am i missing something?

twilit arch
#

You can get a new book every week

#

you just have 2 weeks to complete a book

elfin edge
#

You could turn in a book late, but that eats into your time to complete that week's book

leaden ginkgo
#

So if I did it the 2nd week, I can still get it the same week? or will i wait the next week after?

#

Sorry my question is very confusing @_@

raw solstice
#

yeah you can

#

basically think of it like this

elfin edge
#

So like, say you get a new one at the beginning of week 1, and turn in in the middle of week 2, you can still get week 2's book

#

but week 2's book is due before week 3 ends

#

at least that's how I understand it

raw solstice
#

yeah, that haha

plain python
#

is it worth to do Stone + Aero + Bind as opener?

raw solstice
#

not bind

remote lintel
#

@ebon imp i don't see anything that's 7.49 euro on the store

raw solstice
#

toss up aero then use stone as filler until aero falls off

leaden ginkgo
#

Ohhhhh, what a relief, I just don't wanna miss the free map it offers and i haven't started this weeks book. Thank you fro all the clarifications!

raw solstice
#

bind doesn't really matter (and falls off at the first instance of damage)

#

CC in general is very mediocre and an afterthought in this game other than very specific silence/stuns that can be useful

ebon imp
#

yeah me neither @remote lintel but in the game client they offer it for 7,49€ saying go to the mogry station and upgrade :/ thats what is irritating me

remote lintel
#

it's probably the collectors edition

#

which is just cosmetics

#

not the actual game

ebon imp
remote lintel
#

yeah thats just collectors edition

obsidian patio
#

Yeah those aren’t the expansions

remote lintel
#

it doesnt come with dlc

obsidian patio
#

They’re “upgrades” to them which give you a bunch of vanity items/minions/mounts

elfin edge
#

I think HW's upgrade includes a fantasia?

obsidian patio
#

Yep

elfin edge
#

so that's cheaper than the normal price for fantasia, if you're into that kind of stuff

#

but it's still glam

remote lintel
#

its the same price but more stuff

stark ether
#

Yeah, the actual game isn't on sale @ebon imp that was my confusion as well

elfin edge
#

oh right, eur

#

misread

ebon imp
#

okay, so i still just buy the starter edition for 9,99€?

remote lintel
#

you can buy the starter edition and dlc separately or you can buy the complete edition which includes everything

elfin edge
#

starter is just arr+hw I think?

remote lintel
#

yes

elfin edge
#

so it's just removing the trial limitations but doesn't get you farther in the msq

#

so you can now join free companies and do other social stuff

#

afaik

primal relic
#

yeah pretty much

nocturne jetty
#

how do you unlock the lvl80 dungeon roulette? i did akadaemia anyder, the twinning, and amaurot like all the online guides said, but it still says i need to do ???

remote lintel
#

the grand cosmos

plain python
#

so I should just ignore aero and spam stone?

remote lintel
#

verstone is rng

#

veraero procs verstone

elfin edge
#

start with aero

nocturne jetty
#

the grand cosmos
@remote lintel thank you! 💗

elfin edge
#

then spam stone

#

and redo aero when it runs out

#

you want the damage over time of aero

ebon imp
#

sorry guys, maybe its too early for me. but i can't find the offer in the SE Store for the complete edition for 24,99€

elfin edge
#

(assuming you're talking about CNJ/WHM)

plain python
#

so stone aero and stone?

raw solstice
#

no, start with aero, then spam stone. You have to pay attention to the DoT timer. When it's falling off, reapply aero, otherwise just keep using stone

#

heal as necessary

remote lintel
#

@ebon imp its 39.99 euro

ebon imp
#

or is the "Complete Collector’s Edition Digital Upgrade" soemthing else then the "FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION "

remote lintel
#

the sale is over

ebon imp
#

oh :( i thought till 27. august :(

#

okay

elfin edge
#

the "Collector's Edition Digital Upgrade" is an upgrade from the base game or DLC that gets you glam-related stuff

ebon imp
#

thank you all for the infos :)

little swift
#

@stable herald yeah you can consider the rotation more fluid and decision based rather than strict. lots of stuff just naturally aligns if you play it properly

shell dew
#

yeah i was looking to buy it too XD

#

i could pay the $60 for the complete edition but i feel like i'll be waiting for a while

remote lintel
#

you can buy the game and not input the code

stable herald
#

When you AoE, when do you start mouliment

remote lintel
#

when you built up enough mana

raw solstice
#

it's not an especially static thing

elfin edge
#

I'd probably just get the starter pack and see how long it takes you to finish heavensward

raw solstice
#

whenever you have 20|20 or more is fine

#

if you have embolden or manafication up it can be good to stack and do a bunch of burst AoE

elfin edge
#

no need to get shadowbringers (incl. stormblood) until you actually get to that part of the game

little swift
#

some people like to save to cap as well

heavy jasper
#

for the replica anima weps, do i need to complete the entire line for one job, or can i mix in different ones? im assuming you can only get relics of stuff you’ve already unlocked, so i was hoping i could get the awoken smn wep and then blm for the rest and still unlock both as glamour options

raw solstice
#

and of course, don't overcap

elfin edge
#

I keep forgetting to embolden >_<;

little swift
#

a bunch of enchanted moulinet feels really nice

elfin edge
#

Need to move it to a different part of the hotbar

warped nest
#

@heavy jasper for Anima, once you completed a step, you can get the replica

unborn fern
#

im having some difficulties with the quest "The reason Roaille". im a black mage

warped nest

You can work on multiple relic, but they cannot be on the same active step

@unborn fern if i'm remembering the quest correctly, thats the one where you ignore the main instance villain and kill everything else without letting ilberd die

unborn fern
#

@unborn fern if i'm remembering the quest correctly, thats the one where you ignore the main instance villain and kill everything else without letting ilberd die
Yes but the problem is i cant kill everything in time

so for crystal tower, we simply have to unlock the raids right? Not actually clear them ?

twilit arch

you have to clear them

warped nest

@brave ravine clear

brave ravine
warped nest
#

It is one of the most actively done raid in this game

elfin edge

yeah I'd been doing tons of CT on alliance roulette as WHM

warped nest
#

The only excuse you can use is "I don't like this game"

#

There is no need to worry about needing to wait for it

elfin edge

since most people will be overgeared for it, the mechanics are quite important

warped nest
#

@drifting ruin it is trimmed to clean up the pacing

would it be a bad idea to take a pause on the msq and potd from 51-60, so that I can play gunbreaker?

If you play Gunbreaker

You don't do potd

#

You just go grind dungeons

keen fable

no, like, i'm on my RDM

i need a level 60 to unlock gunbreaker

Ahhh

Sure

alpine heath
#

How long does fantasia last when used? Till we edit our character?

keen fable
#

msq isn't giving me any xp

#

i'm about to finish 2.2 but

#

i'd like to play gnb

warped nest
#

@alpine heath until you confirm the edit, yes

raw solstice
#

it starts giving a good bit more once you get to 3.0 MSQ

alpine heath
#

Oke ty

keen fable
#

ye ik but i've been itching to play gnb for a few weeks

raw solstice
#

and since you have to get through it regardless, you'll probably get more value going through on your RDM, then picking up GNB

#

but if you wanna rush to get GNB, more power to ya

keen fable
#

my only other question is how long it would take to get to 60 in potd from 51

stable herald
#

lots of thinking to do with RDM i gues

unreal scroll
#

why did it say i got 29k gladiator EXP even though ive became a paladin

little swift
#

for classes that become jobs after they equip job stones

#

you gain exp for the base class

#

that's how scholar and summoner can level together

#

they both come from the same base class

#

and therefore can both earn exp for their base class, the arcanist

brave ravine
#

a bit confused on the scaling aspects of raids and duties. Example: Lab of the ancients. There is no icon that says this raid scales, so I assume it does not scale

#

does that mean lev 80s with their ilvl 500 gear go in and roflstomp the content for their poetics?

little swift
#

it scales you to the upper bound of that expansions content

#

through level sync

brave ravine
#

so lab of ancients has scaling of max lev 50 and ilvl 130 , it just doesnt show ?

little swift
#

it has level sync and thats clearly displayed

drifting ruin
#

I think it's 50/135

daring turret
#

This might be a dumb question, grade A hunts don’t require bills right? Its just the rewards after killing the boss?

drifting ruin
#

But yes, it's level synced so you're nerfed that way

little swift
#

A ranks don't require bills yes

#

yam the ilvl cap for 50 is 130

#

only weapons can go to 135

Question about Classes. What do these 3 shine at?
Machinist, Bard and Dancer

#

like whats their purpose apart from DPS

drifting ruin
#

Bard has nice party wide buffs

#

that's the only one I've played, so

little swift
#

@plain python don't worry too much about food until you reach endgame. anything cheap is fine for you to get that 3% exp bonus

#

eggs are a common one

granite swan
#

Is the lv 70 gear merchant pretty far into SB MSQ?

little swift
#

you have to finish stormblood 4.0

plain python
#

I don't mind if it is expensive cuz gil cap lol 😄

little swift
#

but the merchant is at rhalgrs

#

food doesn't provide a huge huge stat bonus at early levels anyways

#

just buy like 1k eggs or something

#

or if something gives you more mainstat for your job go for it i guess

plain python
#

don't see anything gives mind :shy:

little swift
#

Machinist: most static rotation of them all. revolves around overheating to mash a lot of weaponskills in a short amount of time and charging up battery gauge to summon your Automaton Queen to blow stuff up..
Dancer: Most fluid of the three. Revolves around use skills to proc more powerful skills to proc feathers to spend on other skills that also have a chance of proccing a third feather skill. Also has 2 dances you use off cooldown to do big damage and give people damage buffs (especially your dance partner)
Bard: has 3 songs that provide your entire party with a small buff that you want to cycle through one by one, cutting one of them off early to form an 80 second rotation of abilities. otherwise its dot management and slamming the procs of each song as they come up for more damage@grim pivot

grim pivot
#

ah thanks

little swift
#

if you wanted more information in regards to the song rotation in single target its: Wanderers > Mages > Army's (cut this off with 10seconds left)

Hey there, kind of a hard google question. Do fish specifically say if they can be put in a fishtank or not, or are they all able to go in a fishtank?

little swift
#

swap mages and wanderers for aoe

#

i think almost all fish can go in the fish tank

#

provided your fish tank is large enough/has enough space

#

what mix of fish you have is based on your water type

#

saltwater or fresh

earnest summit
#

Well, I have some fish that say "Can be put in a fishtank" and some that don't have that in the tooltip. Can I still put it in one?

leaden ginkgo
#

Hello, is there a hard wall during crafting gear progress from 50 to 60?
I had to put a lot of effort in crafting a good HQ set at 50, just to get my gear set outclassed by the normal NPC gear at level 53, so I was wondering if this stops at some point, because it seems to me you can level so fast that gear sets become obsolete fairly quickly, and for crafters that's a huge letdown, mostly due to the amount of effort I put on getting a gear set.
It didn't really feel like this during ARR crafting progress, where I could make a HQ Vintage set with advance melds and that pretty much carried me all the way to Lv.50. However, now that I'm progressing through HW crafting, it feels my HQ gear doesn't last as long as it did during ARR.

little swift
#

just try it GWaobloChildPepeShrug if it says no then you can't

earnest summit
#

FINE

little swift
#

i haven't tried every fish

earnest summit
#

thanks

#

I hope when I make a fishtank it works out

little swift
#

@leaden ginkgo between the expansions, there is a huge stat gap, for combat jobs and crafters. this is less apparent in shadowbringers but it does feel bad with how quickly you level yes

#

most people tend to have a few sets they move through

#

at certain intervals where they have trouble meeting stats

#

you also have to consider the amount of levels in ARR vs the amount in HW

#

50 levels of crafting progress is condensed into 10 levels

#

it will definitely feel a lot more apparent that your gear isn't cutting it

#

trying to craft gear as you go isn't as easy to manage, waiting until endgame to deal with that is fine

when do poetics get unlocked? made an alt and i'm close to level 50 msq

little swift
#

having a couple of intermediary sets such as lv70 handking and such will make your life easier

mental garnet
#

going from artisan to handking is one of the highlights of my crafting leveling experience

#

literally god-tier in comparison

keen fable
#

Are casters for gloam, noct, or auroral earrings?

leaden ginkgo
#

I guess I'll just try to reach Lv60 with whatever gear I have

elfin edge
#

noct is tank, I think

mental garnet
#

i just looked them up

#

none of them have caster stats

#

gloam is melee

#

auroral is ranged phys

#

noct is tank

keen fable
#

I can't seem to find a difference between gloam and noct

#

on the tooltip

little swift
#

iirc you can spend poetics when you finish the base ARR msq

#

so that includes prae

mental garnet
#

cool! thanks, i'm getting close then

little swift
#

which also hands you a decent sum of them

mental garnet
#

@keen fable on closer look, you're right. the wiki just listed vit as the top stat for noct while strength was at the top for gloam

granite swan
#

On a caster, all 3 items were the exact same with diff name >.>

mental garnet
#

even though the numbers are the exact same

keen fable
#

is it glitched?

mental garnet
#

nah, probably just old gear statting lol

leaden ginkgo
#

what does it mean with people say bio in game?

keen fable
#

so between evenstar and daystar earrings, which one is for casters?

raw solstice
#

left side is as listed, gloam for melee, noct for tank. Right side they used to be that way too (though you could wear any accessory on any job), though they later on added VIT to all accessories and STR to tank accessories so it doesn't matter

leaden ginkgo
#

trying to decide which to get to 80 next bard or dancer. Which requires not a lot of thinking/apm for rotation. Main is BLM

raw solstice
#

evenstar for caster dps, daystar for healers

keen fable
#

alrighty

#

thank you

remote lintel
#

bard

raw solstice
#

when people say bio in chat they usually mean they're using the restroom

remote lintel
#

for less apm dancer

raw solstice
#

alternatively bio is an arcanist/summoner/scholar spell

fringe lotus
#

I noticed in dungeons and raids I'm always unselecting my target cause I'm using my left mouse button to move camera, any tips to avoid that?

remote lintel
#

use right mouse button

raw solstice
#

there's actually a setting for that if you're interested

#

if you click on the field it disables your target by default. Disabling that makes that not happen

lone violet
#

So I assume if you already have the yokai watch from the previous event you don't have to do the quest in order to participate to the current event

fringe lotus
#

Ohhh that's good to know, awesome

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a way to know how much gathering stat I need to get 100% gathering chance at the tier/slot 2 of Diadem nodes?

raw solstice
#

the one I have selected there, if you disable that you won't lose your target when you left click the field

leaden ginkgo
#

or turn on Legacy control type

raw solstice
#

that won't change that

leaden ginkgo
#

at least you don't randomly stop casting due to your character not facing the enemy

raw solstice
#

that doesn't happen on standard, either

leaden ginkgo
#

I think Standard rotates your char with the camera

raw solstice
#

it does, but that doesn't change what you said

leaden ginkgo
#

it stops casting

raw solstice
#

not exactly, no

obsidian patio
#

Can’t you still rotate your camera without rotating your character?

#

Or nah?

remote lintel
#

not on standard

#

for controller

raw solstice
#

technically on standard as long as you start and end your cast facing the target you still complete your cast. If you don't mess with the camera either, you'll track your target regardless of control scheme

#

you have to actively try to not face your target to cancel a cast with standard

leaden ginkgo
#

On Standard, if you right click to rotate the camera, the character rotates along with the camera, so if you face away before the cast ends, the ability gets interrupted

raw solstice
#

you can still rotate, as long as the start and finish has the target in your cone of vision

remote lintel
#

im pretty sure you can still rotate the camera with left mouse button and it doesnt turn your char

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah

#

left button works the same

#

it's only the right click that changes

#

you can still rotate, as long as the start and finish has the target in your cone of vision
@raw solstice yes

#

but compared to Legacy

#

you can have your char face automatically

raw solstice
#

that happens on both

remote lintel
#

^

raw solstice
#

that's a separate setting entirely

#

and not related to what the person was asking about

#

which was what I sent a pic of

leaden ginkgo
#

I don't see the pic

#

oh

#

you mean for target

little swift
#

You won't lose your cast if you rotate your character either thats how jiggling works

#

After your cast has started

raw solstice
#

I don't like that term for it haha but yeah

leaden ginkgo
#

hahaha

mental garnet
#

oh man, hard queueing for castrum at this time of night is probably impossible

raw solstice
#

what I addressed is what they were asking about in the first place

little swift
#

Yeah thats the word I learned for it GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

mental garnet
#

guess i'm finishing the initial msq tomorrow

leaden ginkgo
#

yes

raw solstice
#

"strafe tech" for legacy, "gaze tech" for general

plain python
#

what happens when I exceees 999 items? it produces another stack?

raw solstice
#

correct

little swift
#

Rika that's too fancy for my monkey brain

remote lintel
#

the gyrating tech

leaden ginkgo
#

I feel that Legacy emulates controller stick on keyboard

raw solstice
#

it's similar movement yeah

leaden ginkgo
#

your character turns automatically

raw solstice
#

well, not that part

#

so like, you target an enemy and start a cast

#

and the enemy is moving around

#

whether you're on standard or legacy, you'll track the target without any further input from yourself

#

your character will rotate on their own

#

unless you disable a specific, separate setting

leaden ginkgo
#

so you can't miss?

raw solstice
#

that's not related to standard vs legacy

#

if you get LoS you can still get screwed a bit with that without manual adjustment, but that'll happen on both standard and legacy

#

that used to be a thing you had to toggle on/adjust a bit more to but they just made it standard, been that way for a while now

leaden ginkgo
#

I still feel Legacy feels better

#

I tried both Standard and Legacy for a while

raw solstice
#

it depends a bit on preference

leaden ginkgo
#

my decision point was the behavior difference when you press A and S to move

raw solstice
#

you can actually do a bit more regarding gaze mechanics with standard, have to adjust more to do the same on legacy

#

you can rebind A/S to be the same on either control scheme

hollow mesa
#

Is there anyone farming the yokai event fates that can give me a lift around? :c

leaden ginkgo
#

you mean strafe or move?

raw solstice
#

correct

#

though realistically it doesn't matter if you strafe or run to the side

leaden ginkgo
#

I feel strafe is faster than moving when it comes to diagonal directions

plain python
#

do summoner and scholar shares their first-time dungeon bonus?

raw solstice
#

exact same speed, when you're used to either

#

first time dungeon bonus is character based, not class/job based

#

only guildhest first time bonus is different

obsidian patio
#

If you mean the experience then yes, as Summoner and Scholar share the base class of arcanist

leaden ginkgo
#

you can actually do a bit more regarding gaze mechanics with standard, have to adjust more to do the same on legacy
@raw solstice what can I adjust for that?

raw solstice
#

so to explain it a bit more thoroughly

  1. As mentioned, as long as you face the target at the start and end of the cast, you'll still successfully complete the cast. This means you can rotate mid-cast to dodge a gaze mechanic, even mid-cast, and not lose any uptime at all
  2. For standard, this is done very easily by holding right click and rotating your character
  3. On legacy, you don't have this luxury. You can emulate this a bit by holidng LMB+RMB and S, or both strafe keys + S + RMB, then your character will rotate with your mouse movement
remote lintel
#

if youre facing sideways does the gaze not hit you?

raw solstice
#

that's correct

remote lintel

#

Anyone not getting their roulette bonus xp upon completion?

remote lintel
#

you can get it once a day fictitious

old crypt
#

yeah, my first roulette bonus didnt credit into my xp bar

#

is this a known issue?

#

in the chat log is said that it has awarded me the xp but in actual, I only got the roulette base xp

raw solstice
#

the base roulette bonus is what you get

#

that's what you get once per day

#

you don't get extra on top of that, unless you're adventurer in need for the roulette

#

the roulette bonus itself is the daily part of it

old crypt
#

so does this mean that I should be credit 4.4m or2.35m xp? Kinda confused me

simple shore
#

Those are the same thing. Its just showing it twice because its two different log entris.

#

The darker yellow is you actually gaining the exp

leaden ginkgo
#

so to explain it a bit more thoroughly

  1. As mentioned, as long as you face the target at the start and end of the cast, you'll still successfully complete the cast. This means you can rotate mid-cast to dodge a gaze mechanic, even mid-cast, and not lose any uptime at all

    @raw solstice this is interesting, I've tried for a while and it works nicely, thank you
simple shore
#

the lighter yellow is the log announcing that you completed a roulette

old crypt
#

ahhh that explains...

#

thanks a lot!

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a way to turn backwards in Standard the same way it does in Legacy?

raw solstice
#

don't believe so

#

other than rotating your camera and W

simple shore
#

Not exactly, but you can somewhat replicate that if you can anticipate the need.

#

i.e. face the camera straight on at you while holding LMB, and then as soon as you need to turn, tap RMB. Instant 180.

old crypt
#

Is there any way to check what content I have left to unlock?

slate crow
#

There a way to tell if a FATE is part of the collab?

simple shore
#

I mean, if you're talking about Yokai, isnt it just all fates in the specified zones

raw solstice
#

yeah

#

it's entirely zone-based, not FATE-based

slate crow
#

I just solo’d one south of Wineport and didn’t get a medal.

remote lintel
#

did you equip the watch

raw solstice
#

for legendary medals, it's RNG if you get drops, assuming you have the proper minion summoned

#

if it's regular ones, you have to have the watch equipped to get one

simple shore
#

BLU question - Does Bristle/Flute work on the DoT component of Aqua Breath / Song of Torment? I assume Flute does, but Bristle does not?

ivory pewter
#

hey this is probably a dumb question but what does static mean in mmos?

drifting ruin
#

in what context

simple shore
#

Its unique to FF14, @ivory pewter

slate crow
#

I have it equipped.

raw solstice
#

bristle aqua breath should work

ivory pewter
#

static raids or exetreme trials

simple shore
#

Think of Static as a group of players who agree to do content together, on a pre-arranged schedule

#

Basically a raid team

raw solstice
#

think of static as an opposite of "dynamic", aka unchanging

#

you run content with the same group of people

simple shore
#

The term isnt really used in other games but the functionality is the same

obsidian patio
#

Bristle aqua breath works, but is actually only good if it hits multiple targets since it does the same damage as most of the filler spells, IIRC

simple shore
#

Hmm, interesting. So it works on Aqua, but not Song?

ivory pewter
#

ok thank you

obsidian patio
#

It works on song too

simple shore
#

Ah okay, that makes far more sense.

#

I was gonna say

obsidian patio
#

And that one is always worth using bristle on

simple shore
#

if it just worked on one that would be quite weird

raw solstice
#

@slate crow you have the watch equipped, got silver/gold on a fate, and did not get a regular medal?

leaden ginkgo
#

is there something that I can buy using poetics to be sold in MB?

slate crow
#

Pretty much. Unless soloing it isn’t enough to get at least silver.

raw solstice
#

soloing is fine, but if you're doing BLU stuff like doom it might not work. But mm, one sec while I check on something

west root
#

If I buy the latest expansion, given I'm a free trial player, and I unlock an expansion job, once the expansion subscription ends, will I lose the job?

leaden ginkgo
#

No, but you'll lose the ability to log in once your ssub expires

simple shore
#

Missile works for certain

raw solstice
#

ok it's what I thought, eastern la noscea isn't a zone for yokai

west root
#

So I won't be able to play the game unless I extend my subscription? @leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

@west root Yes

west root
#

I see

leaden ginkgo
#

You basically lose the "Free Trial" account once you bought the game

raw solstice
#

can look at the yokai medallium to see which FATEs are included as part of the event (particularly for when you're grinding out the legendary medals)

west root
#

@leaden ginkgo Oh I see

leaden ginkgo
#

not the account itself, just the tagging of "Free Trial"

west root
#

Mhm

slate crow
#

Do you have to have the minion to get a particular legendary medal?

dry ocean
#

what are cp ang gp

raw solstice
#

yeah, legendary medals require the specific minion summoned and FATEs completed in a valid zone

#

!faq yokai

zinc orbitBOT
#
Yokai Watch Guide
simple shore
#

Think of them as "mana for crafting" and "mana for gathering", respectively, Crow.

dry ocean
#

ahh I see

west root
#

So should I stay Free Trial until I have a steady job income?@leaden ginkgo

dry ocean
#

cul is for cp ye?

simple shore
#

CP goes to full at the start of every craft. GP regenerates slowly over time (but pauses while you're gathering a node - except one tick per swing)

dry ocean
#

thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

@west root Pretty much, if you want to stay playing the game with your account. The good thing about staying Free Trial is you can clear every content that ARR and HW can offer

#

Without having to rush due to having a subscription

west root
#

@leaden ginkgo I understand. Yeah, that is the better option

slate crow
#

Thought so. I had Blizzaria and kept getting her medal. Thought it was coincidence until I got 3 in a row. XD

west root
#

Thank you so much for the information

#

I highly appreciate it

slate crow
#

Does the faq have which minion gets which weapon?

raw solstice
#

they're listed in the same spots, i.e. Jibanyan gives Paw of the Crimson Cat, Komasan gives Cane of the Shrine Maiden, etc

#

Hello, with the Yo-Kai event, I have the 17 minions but how do I obtain the Whisper Go Mount?

raw solstice
#

jonathas in gridania

#

gives all sorts of achievement-based rewards, including that

dry ocean
#

where do you buy culinary gears?

raw solstice
#

old gridania, specifically

nocturne wasp
#

@slate crow Also if you check the webpage for the event, the minions are listed in a specific order.

a row of 4, a row of 4, a row of 3, a row of 2 and a row of 4

The weapons are listed in the same way.

#

And thanks Rika!

raw solstice

@dry ocean that response wasn't for you, was for the other question

shell dew
#

You don't lose your account completely if say you don't repay your sub for a few months, do you?

raw solstice
#

what level are you looking at? In general you'll be looking towards crafting your own gear along the way

#

yeah you don't lose your account. The only way you do that is push the spooky button that says "cancel service account", instead of "cancel subscription"

shell dew
#

ok XD

nocturne wasp
#

Spooooooky

shell dew
#

if you cancel it early, are you refunded, or nothing happens and it just gets canceled?

raw solstice
#

there's no prorating there

#

you pay for 30 days or whatever, that's the subtime you get. When it runs out, it runs out

#

if you cancel, you still have the days you paid for

#

it just stops the auto-renewal

shell dew

ohhh
