Short form: dungeons and roulettes
where do you get the yokai event mounts?
ty
btw does after ARR story questline give me something good enough for HW story/dungeon content?
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?
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
You can also switch to a gathering class and auto-attack
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?

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
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
do i clip 2 glares with assize in between when its off cd
Yes
or do i use lily/dia?
Assize is so good that clipping glare is worth it
Can i matchmake with a party to do POTD?
yes
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?
oh ok
oh ok
@honest ocean by the time the patch is out people will prob stopped using blu for it
once I have all minions and weapons from the Yo-kai watch event can I delete the medals ?
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
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
but yeah by like a week, people will prob stop using blu
Plus BLU is meant to be strong
ty
since all the people who want it really fast are using blu rn
yeah, tbh that's literally their role
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
This is the only way it works otherwise its just isn't blue mage
yeah otherwise it's literally useless
This is also not the channel to discuss it
and I dislike blu as much as the next person
would it be worth grinding up the sos ex weapon?
Yes
check your bis
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
Weapon damage is king
How much does Southern Seas Vest cost in €? Can’t access the mogstation at the moment
+1 weapon damage makes it incredibly more desirable. +2 is basically guaranteed to be better 99% of the time
ah i see, I'll keep that in mind!
thank you
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?
No
wheres that 495 weapon from?
the new ex
the new ex trial
oh ok
nothing happens when i click review order, what do
relic weapons are generally not going to be better than savage until the end of expansion
The upgrade in 5.35 will be around 495
mmm, so is it pretty much just something to work with until you do savage?
Sometime if you have a vpn it can mess with the store
ahhh, gotcha
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
@wicked blade did you turn off any ad/pop up blockers or try using another browser
yeah i tried microsoft edge as well 😦
is there anything I can do with my excess Yo-Kai Medals and Legendary Yo-Kai Medals?
No
did you enter your billing address and stuff into your SE store account
is eureka a valid way of leveling with the echo buff?
It doesn't give xp for outside jobs
eureka is not for leveling
the only experience you gain in eureka is elemental levels
Is the current dragonsung tool step suppose to be the last?
No. It will be upgraded over the expansion
Daily roulettes and highest level dungeon spam (dzaemal and aurum vale)
isnt potd faster?
only if your queue times are 15+minutes
Don't forget that potd can result in a wipe and you gain no exp
whats potd?
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
The primary purpose is to gain rewards
yes
It has a nifty secondary purpose in leveling jobs because it gives exp every set of 10 floors you clear
Can NPC squadrons use Revive spells to other dead NPCs?
yes
It is recommended for DPS jobs because going into POTD doesn't require a standard party formation
Which reduces your queue time
Cecily is acting like Donald Duck moments for not helping Hastaloeya
anyone know if shroud soil affects allagan melons?
normal dungeons are still preferable if your queue time on that not longer than 10-15 minutes compared to your potd queue
Anyway good to know and ty
Example potd queue time 3 minutes, dungeon queue time 17 minutes
Dungeons still worth it
but you'd have to agree as a group when to quit potd right?
Nope, every set of 10 floors is done
it matchmakes again
You can leave and get exp
i see
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
and the boss + its ability all random?
Nope
bosses are set
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
Torghast in shadowlands expansion looks like an exact copy of POTD implementation
I have no idea what that is
lmao
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
potd is also based off a side quest and is implemented into the lore
namely Tam Tara deepcroft hard
spooky lore
is it just me or does DRG have a lot of buttons? I usually play SMN or AST
off GCD stuff? feels like i'm playing a piano with DRG
!faq drgopener
Can deciphered maps expire?
Like.
Decipher and a map, and not use it for a day or two, will you still have it?
They do not expire
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?
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
white mage
easiest to pick up and do decently would be white mage
@restive relic Outside of daily roulette, raids wont give you much exp
ok, it says the roulette gives 13.2k exp for completing, but i finish a raid my level and get like 400k
roulette gives the bonus at the end
I can learn them fairly well I think, is there any reason to choose the others over white mage?
Roulette has 2 bonus
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?
@idle sentinel if oyu think they look cooler
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 ⬆️
Got ya, do any of the other healers start out at a higher lvl?
ast is 30
This daily bonus will be inflated to match your level
sch is tied to arcanist
Arcanist does monk at dame time to right?
Scholar is a healer job branching off the DPS Arcanist
fate exp is scaled to its level region
Oh summoner and and scholar?
yes
Hmm
you won't get rewards equal to your level just whatever the level of the fate is
2 for 1 might not be bad lol
Take note that you still need to gear them separately
Yeah
But if u lvl 1 to 80 they both r 80 right?
yes
Yes
Got ya tough decisions lol
if you dont like one of them then its not really a benefit
Yeah not sure I've only played 2 jobs so far
is there a system where you can try out a class ?
no
I think in the pvp area you can test some class things
pvp has its own set of actions
And it is a high specialized set of actions
so its not really going to give you the best idea of what a lvl 80 job is going to play like
Designed for burst
do you think or do we know if shadowbringers is the final dlc?
It aint
That's relieving to know, I just now finished shadowbringers
How long is the arr patch now?
I literally cried at 1 part
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
i cried at multiple parts in 5.3
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
spoilers
(I stayed up to 4am to see it all the way through)
Yeah, I am not writing down specifics
but the name tho
Fair
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?
not be in a FC
remove housing if you have any
MrHappy did a series on this topic
I didn't see if he had released a video on patch
I know he did one on 1-50, two actually, watched those
do you mean the quests between the end of ARR and the beginning of heavensward?
yea
i'm going through those atm. it's been like 12 hours and still havent hit heavensward
I have the seals to buy a mount but it wont let me do it
are you talking to the quartermaster
@brave ravine just fyi, it took him casually 28 hours to do arr patch
You need to buy the issuance from the quartermaster first
ohhh

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
my retainers being on a venture is fine?
yeah they still sell whatever items are being sold
and can get any items they have in their storage
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.
Do you need to have gotten to a certain point in Shadowbringers MSQ to unlock purchasing level 80 scrip gear for gatherers?
Don’t think so?
I've hit level 80 MIN/BTN but can only see level 70 gear scrip exchange. Still in Stormblood MSQ
that would be why, you need to unlock the eulmore house of splendors
which means you need to get there in the shadowbringers msq
@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
OK, a fair ways to go then
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
you would need to buy complete edition
How hard is it to get the basic yokai watch mount?
not hard at all
the normal medals are assured drops so long as you get gold/silver on fates
not that hard, just spam fates with any yokai for medals, i think u need 50 total for all the minions?
ah, so free trial isnt counted as "owning" ffxiv for shadowbringers standard to work?
what's the fastest to access inn room/glamour dresser from any aetheryte crystal?
gridania
Thanks, both of you!
Can you put the Aetheryte house item in an Apartment? :p
no, apartment automatically has an aethryte crystal attached to it
ah
so once you buy one you'll get the teleport option
k
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

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.
The pull limit is "until the dungeon doesnt let you go any further because you hit a wall"
lol
2 mob groups is the standard
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.
that's what I normally do/see
wall to walling? how you know if you hit a wall? is it that invisible force field thing before a big encounter?
ARR dungeons are a bit different so you have to feel out what you can handle.
oh okay
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
I got all gold and full slots on fashion report but only got 98 why?
how do you get past captain in your GC?
did you have something equipped in all slots
With these walls can you pass through it? and I assume mobs can't?
do you mean like a literally wall? lol or is it like an invisible wall that bind mob back?
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
also yeah I had something in literally every slot
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
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.
because they have aggro tethers
if you pull them past a certain point they will deaggro
can you post a screenshot, kawa?
whats the easiest lvl 70 extreme to farm?
susano or lakshmi probably
lakshmi is emanation?
yes
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
you can relocate with everything in it, as it'll be stored in your house's storeroom
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET
though keep in mind if the items would exceed storeroom limit you won't be able to relocate
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.
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
can you post a screenshot
one sec
any command to show paladin guide in discord?

***Paladin Guide: Shadowbringers Edition***
Up to date as of 5.08
Introduction and Primer to Paladin by Aletin Ves'ser
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JY2t2GvNaNnQhZ5Isp-HIso2JgGMY6WXk5IGAY2v8AU/edit?usp=sharing
I don't seem to be in the novice network anymore, do you level out of it?
dyes are wrong
@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.
is there a good minion to fight the stage 4 boss in Verminion mini-game? I can fight it off with Mammet, but it takes a long time
oop
@simple shore alright i'll keep that in mind, thanks!
Is it worth to augment my ironwork gear?
once i get my glad to 30 and turn into a paladin, are there both gladiator and paly class quests? or just paly
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
@lavish fractal just pally quests. you'll return to mylla eventually tho
ok cool ty!!
is there a way to search for mount whistles on the market board?
like a category for it
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
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
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
I leveled up twice doing Stone Vigil for the first time 😄
ok, i figured it wouldn't be a big difference on NA but i was curious bc i never noticed it before
thanks!
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
@deft quiver they're under miscellany, page 3
For the Light of the Inspiration quest, do you need another lvl 70 role to finish it? Trying to not have to do that if possible. https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/The_Light_of_Inspiration
you only need 1 role quest chain complete
@heady knot mount flying are locked behind in game progression
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
Is there a active discord for hunts? For aether
There is no "only these mounts can fly and most of them are paid"
Then you likely picked up the first tank role quest
ok
check your completed section of your journal
under the class & jobs quests section, click on the drop down menu and select "Role quests"
click on the drop down menu where it says "disciple of war quests:"
Yea it's empty there
whats your current quests then
Does anyone know an easy 4 mil XP grind? I'm level 59 trying to get to 60
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
screenshot your quest journal
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?
sec
engagement is if you know displacement is going to kill you
/psort
oh. so like, no backflip to the stinky
yeah
thankyou
Oh !
also go do to your paladin job quests
Just wanted to get to the end of the story lol
you're missing job skills
whats dog whistle drop rate?
Thanks for the clarification, didn't want to level another 70 job
When are we getting new Resistance quests?
5.35, about a month or so from now

So are legendary medals just a chance? Or am I doing something wrong without knowing it
yes, legendary medals are rng
What causes the team wipe vs the last boss in the labyrinth raid of the crystal tower?
probably people greeding and not stepping on the pads to raise the barrier for ancient flare
oh? so all 8 members have to step in?
No, not all 8 have to be on the pad. but enough people from each alliance needs to get on their alliance's pad
is there a way to disable the Lodestone windows that opens everytime i log in?
Ah, tks
character config > ui settings > scroll down to the bottom and untick the playguide options
thanks
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
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?
your gap closer doesn't align with your melee
you use them independently off cooldown
unless manafication is up to reset it
so lets say you start the fight, you just gap closer straight away?
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
use it during a weave window
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..
hardcast is for prepull
But, ok, let's say normal dungeon run, you start in a fight
Don't you do Acceleration, Jolt, then start raising your mana?
I mean, in a case where there is no prepull preperation (like in raids/dungeons)
then it doesn't matter
you can swiftcast aero/thunder for all that matters
acceleration > swift thunder/aero
would be fine if you really wanted procs early
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
I see
5gcd is usually when people get it off
so I should do the gap closer.. when?
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
do food have min level requirement?
to use? no
For quest sync, can you pick it up on something like a dps, then turn in as healer for xp?
No, quests that sync to you can only be done and turned in as the job you accepted it as.
Ah
do tiny au ra children have stubby tails like cat children
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
your rested exp goes into the next level
oh, when it's blue?
got it, that makes sense then, i guess it's been a really long time since i've caught up on rested xp
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?
ask someone to invite you all into a party and then leave
can i not proc doublecast off of swiftcasting an ability
Alright at least I know a work around now ty
no, you can't dark
dualcast only works on casted spells, which swiftcast makes the next spell instant cast
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
sorry @little swift , queue popped.
So the Corps-a-corps should always be on CD, correct?
yes
both corp-a-corp and displacement @stable herald
then do you delay a displacement if your melee combo is ready?
does that question make sense? 
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
like, if you had 80 mana each, do you melee first, before displacement, or just do engagement?
which if it's the difference between missing a use there's justification for weaving it in melee combo
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
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
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?
but if you use displacement, don't you delay your melee?
@dusk drum cebturio seals
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
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
any recommendation for lvl up 49-50
@stark ether do you not own the dlcs
@remote lintel i'm currently on the free trial so no
you need the base game and dlcs to buy collectors edition
anyone know how often this game goes on sale? XD
@dusk drum cebturio seals
@remote lintel that's in heavensward right?
it went on sale every few months or so I think
I bought my DLC on sale
Gotcha. Thakns.
any recommendation for lvl up 49-50
@heady knot do aurum vale
yea figured as much
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?
when was the last sale?
very short while ago
dang
you can't buy the base game and dlc on mog station @ebon imp
you buy them from the SE store or steam
so I need to buy the base game first, then I can upgrade to the collector's edition?
I got my weaver to 80. What can I do now to gain Gil through the job until I level other crafters?
@remote lintel thanks :) whats the "SE Store"?
You can't really make much money if you only have a single crafter, I think
oh i see i am asking the same as @stark ether sorry
since recipes often require cross-crafter items
can make glamour
Okay
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?
its basically that combo except your mana building wont always line up with gap closer and displacement
I mean, I think that's the basic RDM, and then you start building on the basics to get more DPS out
so you just use them
Gap closer and displacement is just keep on CD
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
and just do melee combo by moving close, rather than using the gap closer
yeah, and you can use corps-a-corps and displacement for movement as well
just don't be me and backflip off bismarck <_<;
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?
every week
There's a new book every week
@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?
You could turn in a book late, but that eats into your time to complete that week's book
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 @_@
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
yeah, that haha
is it worth to do Stone + Aero + Bind as opener?
not bind
@ebon imp i don't see anything that's 7.49 euro on the store
toss up aero then use stone as filler until aero falls off
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!
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
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
it's probably the collectors edition
which is just cosmetics
not the actual game
yeah thats just collectors edition
Yeah those aren’t the expansions
it doesnt come with dlc
They’re “upgrades” to them which give you a bunch of vanity items/minions/mounts
I think HW's upgrade includes a fantasia?
Yep
so that's cheaper than the normal price for fantasia, if you're into that kind of stuff
but it's still glam
its the same price but more stuff
Yeah, the actual game isn't on sale @ebon imp that was my confusion as well
okay, so i still just buy the starter edition for 9,99€?
you can buy the starter edition and dlc separately or you can buy the complete edition which includes everything
starter is just arr+hw I think?
yes
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
yeah pretty much
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 ???
the grand cosmos
so I should just ignore aero and spam stone?
start with aero
the grand cosmos
@remote lintel thank you! 💗
then spam stone
and redo aero when it runs out
you want the damage over time of aero
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€
(assuming you're talking about CNJ/WHM)
so stone aero and stone?
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
@ebon imp its 39.99 euro
or is the "Complete Collector’s Edition Digital Upgrade" soemthing else then the "FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION "
the sale is over
the "Collector's Edition Digital Upgrade" is an upgrade from the base game or DLC that gets you glam-related stuff
thank you all for the infos :)
@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
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
you can buy the game and not input the code
When you AoE, when do you start mouliment
when you built up enough mana
it's not an especially static thing
I'd probably just get the starter pack and see how long it takes you to finish heavensward
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
no need to get shadowbringers (incl. stormblood) until you actually get to that part of the game
some people like to save to cap as well
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
and of course, don't overcap
I keep forgetting to embolden >_<;
a bunch of enchanted moulinet feels really nice
Need to move it to a different part of the hotbar
@heavy jasper for Anima, once you completed a step, you can get the replica
im having some difficulties with the quest "The reason Roaille". im a black mage
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 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
focus the claw when it appears
and try and thin out stuff npcs are fighting
so that they can assist you
!faq blmleveling
In the latest patch, did they adjust the post-ARR quests?
as in, the 100 chore quests before HW
hi. can we buy lvl 60 blue equips like in revenant toll w/o reaching the story end? if so where can i buy it?
yes. post arr was trimmed down to 80 quests
80 is still a lot 👀
@crimson notch Idyllshire
Idyllshire, assuming you've gotten there in the main scenario quest @crimson notch
so for crystal tower, we simply have to unlock the raids right? Not actually clear them ?
you have to clear them
@brave ravine clear

It is one of the most actively done raid in this game
yeah I'd been doing tons of CT on alliance roulette as WHM
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
since most people will be overgeared for it, the mechanics are quite important
@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?
How long does fantasia last when used? Till we edit our character?
@alpine heath until you confirm the edit, yes
it starts giving a good bit more once you get to 3.0 MSQ
Oke ty
ye ik but i've been itching to play gnb for a few weeks
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
my only other question is how long it would take to get to 60 in potd from 51
lots of thinking to do with RDM i gues
why did it say i got 29k gladiator EXP even though ive became a paladin
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
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?
so lab of ancients has scaling of max lev 50 and ilvl 130 , it just doesnt show ?
it has level sync and thats clearly displayed
I think it's 50/135
This might be a dumb question, grade A hunts don’t require bills right? Its just the rewards after killing the boss?
But yes, it's level synced so you're nerfed that way
A ranks don't require bills yes
yam the ilvl cap for 50 is 130
only weapons can go to 135
o 
what vendor food would let you kill things a bit faster?
Question about Classes. What do these 3 shine at?
Machinist, Bard and Dancer
like whats their purpose apart from DPS
@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
Is the lv 70 gear merchant pretty far into SB MSQ?
you have to finish stormblood 4.0
I don't mind if it is expensive cuz gil cap lol 😄
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
don't see anything gives mind :shy:
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
ah thanks
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?
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
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?
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.
just try it
if it says no then you can't
FINE
i haven't tried every fish
@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
having a couple of intermediary sets such as lv70 handking and such will make your life easier
going from artisan to handking is one of the highlights of my crafting leveling experience
literally god-tier in comparison
Are casters for gloam, noct, or auroral earrings?
I guess I'll just try to reach Lv60 with whatever gear I have
noct is tank, I think
i just looked them up
none of them have caster stats
gloam is melee
auroral is ranged phys
noct is tank
cool! thanks, i'm getting close then
which also hands you a decent sum of them
@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
On a caster, all 3 items were the exact same with diff name >.>
even though the numbers are the exact same
is it glitched?
nah, probably just old gear statting lol
what does it mean with people say bio in game?
so between evenstar and daystar earrings, which one is for casters?
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
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
evenstar for caster dps, daystar for healers
bard
when people say bio in chat they usually mean they're using the restroom
for less apm dancer
alternatively bio is an arcanist/summoner/scholar spell
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?
use right mouse button
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
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
Ohhh that's good to know, awesome
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?
@fringe lotus to be specific
the one I have selected there, if you disable that you won't lose your target when you left click the field
or turn on Legacy control type
that won't change that
at least you don't randomly stop casting due to your character not facing the enemy
that doesn't happen on standard, either
I think Standard rotates your char with the camera
it does, but that doesn't change what you said
it stops casting
not exactly, no
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
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
you can still rotate, as long as the start and finish has the target in your cone of vision
im pretty sure you can still rotate the camera with left mouse button and it doesnt turn your char
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
that happens on both
^
that's a separate setting entirely
and not related to what the person was asking about
which was what I sent a pic of
You won't lose your cast if you rotate your character either thats how jiggling works
After your cast has started
I don't like that term for it haha but yeah
hahaha
oh man, hard queueing for castrum at this time of night is probably impossible
what I addressed is what they were asking about in the first place
Yeah thats the word I learned for it 
guess i'm finishing the initial msq tomorrow
yes
"strafe tech" for legacy, "gaze tech" for general
what happens when I exceees 999 items? it produces another stack?
correct
Rika that's too fancy for my monkey brain
the gyrating tech
I feel that Legacy emulates controller stick on keyboard
it's similar movement yeah
your character turns automatically
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
so you can't miss?
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
it depends a bit on preference
my decision point was the behavior difference when you press A and S to move
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
Is there anyone farming the yokai event fates that can give me a lift around? :c
you mean strafe or move?
I feel strafe is faster than moving when it comes to diagonal directions
do summoner and scholar shares their first-time dungeon bonus?
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
If you mean the experience then yes, as Summoner and Scholar share the base class of arcanist
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?
so to explain it a bit more thoroughly
- 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
- For standard, this is done very easily by holding right click and rotating your character
- 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
if youre facing sideways does the gaze not hit you?
that's correct
WHAT

Anyone not getting their roulette bonus xp upon completion?
you can get it once a day fictitious
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
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
so does this mean that I should be credit 4.4m or2.35m xp? Kinda confused me
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
so to explain it a bit more thoroughly
- 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
the lighter yellow is the log announcing that you completed a roulette
is there a way to turn backwards in Standard the same way it does in Legacy?
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.
Is there any way to check what content I have left to unlock?
There a way to tell if a FATE is part of the collab?
I mean, if you're talking about Yokai, isnt it just all fates in the specified zones
I just solo’d one south of Wineport and didn’t get a medal.
did you equip the watch
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
BLU question - Does Bristle/Flute work on the DoT component of Aqua Breath / Song of Torment? I assume Flute does, but Bristle does not?
hey this is probably a dumb question but what does static mean in mmos?
in what context
Its unique to FF14, @ivory pewter
I have it equipped.
bristle aqua breath should work
static raids or exetreme trials
Think of Static as a group of players who agree to do content together, on a pre-arranged schedule
Basically a raid team
think of static as an opposite of "dynamic", aka unchanging
you run content with the same group of people
The term isnt really used in other games but the functionality is the same
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
Hmm, interesting. So it works on Aqua, but not Song?
ok thank you
It works on song too
And that one is always worth using bristle on
if it just worked on one that would be quite weird
@slate crow you have the watch equipped, got silver/gold on a fate, and did not get a regular medal?
is there something that I can buy using poetics to be sold in MB?
Pretty much. Unless soloing it isn’t enough to get at least silver.
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
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?
No, but you'll lose the ability to log in once your ssub expires
Missile works for certain
ok it's what I thought, eastern la noscea isn't a zone for yokai
So I won't be able to play the game unless I extend my subscription? @leaden ginkgo
@west root Yes
I see
You basically lose the "Free Trial" account once you bought the game
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)
@leaden ginkgo Oh I see
not the account itself, just the tagging of "Free Trial"
Mhm
Do you have to have the minion to get a particular legendary medal?
what are cp ang gp
yeah, legendary medals require the specific minion summoned and FATEs completed in a valid zone
!faq yokai
Think of them as "mana for crafting" and "mana for gathering", respectively, Crow.
ahh I see
So should I stay Free Trial until I have a steady job income?@leaden ginkgo
cul is for cp ye?
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)
thanks
@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
@leaden ginkgo I understand. Yeah, that is the better option
Thought so. I had Blizzaria and kept getting her medal. Thought it was coincidence until I got 3 in a row. XD
Does the faq have which minion gets which weapon?
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?
where do you buy culinary gears?
old gridania, specifically
@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!
ty
@dry ocean that response wasn't for you, was for the other question
You don't lose your account completely if say you don't repay your sub for a few months, do you?
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"
ok XD
Spooooooky
if you cancel it early, are you refunded, or nothing happens and it just gets canceled?
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
ohhh
