When I leave an FC, what happens to my FC private chamber?
gritty oracle
destroyed
limber walrus
Demolished probably. Actually I think u need to demolish it before leaving
twilit arch
you have to destroy it before you can leave
limber walrus
Yes
dusty jungle
I can't pickup all the stuff 
is there a way to get it to go to that resident keeper system?
dusty jungle
perfect, thanks. I'll do that.

Is there a way to get rid of the pet bar for scholar for a normal bar? I hate how it interferes with my other bar
limber walrus
Do you have to demolish your house before buying new land in firmament ?
limber walrus
Oh ok
obsidian patio
do note that the firmament isn't open to housing and is unknown when it will happen
twilit arch
you can right click on the hud element in hud layout editor to disable it @cloud lake
limber walrus
My FC has saved up 50 million to get a house in firmament but we have a small house in shirogane. I'm just trying to cut down costs as much as possible because I'm the leader
pearl birch
Excuse me, anyone knows how to get this ?
cloud lake
@twilit arch Thank you
limber walrus
@obsidian patio I've heard that it comes out in 5.35
obsidian patio
no
twilit arch
no we're getting additional wards for the existing housing districts
not a new housing zone
limber walrus
Ohh ok

as someone who never has touched any DoH/L jobs, should i pick one up? i heard they're good for making gil, but i've no clue about anything

That's gonna be a super rough patch day

@pearl birch new fireworks from Faux Hallows or exchanged with the bronze certificates from wondrous tails
not sure if they're tradeable
limber walrus
@raven burrow they're amazing for making money but takes a large amount of investment first

@obsidian patio is it available in MB too? What's the name of the item.

For example, I can now buy like 20k worth of mats & craft a weapon to sell for 500k. It's very profitable
lyric magnet
Can I ask a question about UI, is it possible to remove the elements of each hot bar that show the number and the lock symbol? So that it's just the hot bar slots that show.
remote lintel
@raven burrow not really
limber walrus
It'll definitely take a bit more... But if you're focusing on one class only then maybe
raven burrow
remote lintel
no
focusing on one class makes it more expensive
for all the rest
and that class as well
limber walrus
It's the most cost efficient to level them all + gatherers
twilit arch
can't remove the lock but you can hide the hotbar numbers and cycling arrows @lyric magnet
raven burrow
wish i had the time and money for that
still iris
hey i turned of magic effects how do i turn them on again
remote lintel
grinding crafters doesnt takes that much time
lyric magnet
can't remove the lock but you can hide the hotbar numbers and cycling arrows @lyric magnet
@twilit arch great how can I do that?
twilit arch
its in character config > hotbar settings
faint flare
Character config > hotbars settings > display hotbar numbers
lyric magnet
Ahhh thank you!
limber walrus
@remote lintel it would if u also had other goals in the game I think....like msq for example
Or glam
remote lintel
thats why people recommend getting to lvl cap first and then dedicating time to get crafters
lyric magnet
I have one more question, what is the 'cross bar' UI element used for?
raven burrow
@remote lintel can you direct me towards something that will help me with this maybe?
remote lintel
controllers @lyric magnet
faint flare
Cross bar is for controllers
lyric magnet
Like game pads?
faint flare
Yes

grinding crafters is just doing ishgard restoration
remote lintel
an area for power lvling crafters that requires lvl 60 to unlock and having done 3.3
limber walrus
I think ishgard restoration is closed until the next patch
remote lintel
we need an faq for ishgard restoration
raven burrow
uhm where do i do that?
faint flare
You can still submit
limber walrus
Oh it isn't?
faint flare
Ishgard restoration is permanent
still iris
hey i turned of magic effects how do i turn them on again
raven burrow
can i do this ishgard restoration with a lv 1 crafting job?
faint flare
Character config > general > character
limber walrus
I believe level 20 minimum
limber walrus
So u would still have to grind to 20 from 1 but that is easy with levequests and just job quests and general crafting
remote lintel
you can spam crafts to 20
raven burrow
should i get all jobs to 20?
remote lintel
all crafters yes
proven bay
Level 20 takes no time in crafters
remote lintel
you're going to be leveling them all at together
raven burrow
alchemist and culinarian too?
proven bay
I leveled one crafter from 1-50 in less than 3 hours
Without ishgard restoration

I would like some help with understanding how glamours and dyes work
remote lintel
!faq glamour
zinc orbitBOT
deft yarrow
basically can I have 1 piece of equipment as different colors on different glamour slots?
remote lintel
different glamour plates yes
deft yarrow
if I dyed my armor 1 color but it was saved as a different color on a glamor plate
wispy parcel
You can dye items seperatly why editing glamour plates
deft yarrow
and then I used the glamor plate, how can I go back to the color I dyed it before using the glamor plate?
faint flare
If you dye the platw itself the glamour item retains its colour if you use it on other plates
wispy parcel
you have to dye it back, or use a dye you have in your inventory
faint flare
So you're not dying the item itself
limber walrus
@deft yarrow insert it undyed into the glam dresser, save it as glam plate 1, and then save another as glam plate 2, but u can use up a dye to save glam plate 2 as the new color
Then tada u have two different colors u can switch between without using up dyes
deft yarrow
yea I forgot to save it after I dyed it a second time
limber walrus
Yes I made the same mistake once
remote lintel
are you talking about having 2 glamour plates with the same item but it's dyed differently between the 2 plates?
deft yarrow
for example I had color set 1 and saved it to a glam plate, then I made color set 2 but I before saving that to a glam plate I used glam plate 1 set
remote lintel
did you dye it before or after you put it on the plate
deft yarrow
so I applied a glam set
then I dyed it
then I used the same glam set
and it reverted my dyes back to the glam set dyes
limber walrus
So I'll show u mine
This is my undyed shirt
And it's glam plate 1
And then u can make the exact same glam plate on glam plate 2 but right click the shirt to dye it something else and save
Then I can just apply glam plate 1 or 2 to alternate colors without using up dyes
remote lintel
ok i think i get it
deft yarrow
That's what I planned on doing, but before saving glam plate 2 I used game plate 1 after dying my equipment again
so my dyes reverts back to glam plate 1
remote lintel
i'm assuming the armor you were wearing before was not a default color
remote lintel
i dont think you can get back the dye
because dispelling the glamour turns your armor the default color
limber walrus
Yeah once u do that u have to buy another dye
I made the same mistake with two dragoon blue dyes... My scrips 💦💦
remote lintel
yes
deft yarrow
kk thanks
remote lintel
i would recommend dyeing the armor directly in the glam dresser with the color you like more
because if you dye an item AFTER putting it on a plate, and then remove that item from the plate, the dye will be gone
deft yarrow
ok, sounds like this is more delicate than I first thought
so I don't want to mess it up
what exactly should I do?
remote lintel
dye the item directly in the glamour dresser
so that becomes its "default" color
and then you will basically never lose that color unless you dye it again
deft yarrow
so I go to the inn, and to the glam dresser?
remote lintel
deft yarrow
this also works if I want to have multiple color sets?
limber walrus
You can only have one default color
gritty oracle
you can dye items on the glamour plate too
wintry chasm
^
So you don't lose the default colour but it'll be that new colour on that plate only
remote lintel
im saying dyeing items on the glamour plate and then removing them from the glamour plates makes it lose the dye
deft yarrow
if I dye it in the dresser will it change the color of the current glam plate I have saved?
remote lintel
no
deft yarrow
kk
limber walrus
See the hat in the middle is dyed black
Now when I apply it to a plate, it will always be black,
Even if u dye it another color in another plate
It will always default to black
deft yarrow
yea I got it work, didn't think I needed to go back to the dresser and save it everytime I dyed something
thanks ❤️

hello everyone ! I'm a veteran FF player (I've played all of the games including final fantasy tactics ) and decided to just start playing FF14 , I just got the expansions after a free trial and I'm wondering how to add more play time

You dont lose it for the rest of your jobs under 70

no but when those jobs become 70

Does anyone have a list of what armours I can dispose of without having to worry about getting them back? My retainers are so full of job gear from 50-70 that I'm not sure what I can just buy back without issue, and what I should keep.
obsidian patio
In terms of job gear only the level 60 stuff is annoying to get back since you’d need to level up your grand company ranks to unlock content that unlocks the vendor that sells it
The Level 50 and 70 sets can be bought back from the calamity salvager
remote lintel
if you got armor from a quest you can get it back
atomic fox
Does that include, for example, the Valor Coronet? I know the one set of AF gear can go into the armoire, but the stuff that doesn't, I can dispose of until I want it for glamour?
atomic fox
Okay, thank you. It's been a real headache trying to figure this out, I started making hand written lists to cross check online.
So just keep the 60 gear, gotcha.

all AF gear is from the salvager or the guy uinderwater except the 60 gear

we actually have a set of rotations for recommendation by level for THM/BLM, for both single target and AoE
!faq blmleveling
zinc orbitBOT
deft quiver
whats the best way to farm phantasmagoria?
raw solstice
in general, the flow is like, astral fire stacks (AF) increase damage of fire-based spells, and increase MP cost of fire spells, and block MP regen. umbral ice stacks increase MP regen
so you burn your mana in AF for damage, then swap into UI to regen mana to full, then back into AF for damage, etc
blazing crest
What day is the reset for the week?
leaden ginkgo
Thanks, but they only "stack" once, right? Base cost for AF is 800, casting it once increases cost to 1600, but then it stays constant...
twilit arch
tuesday @blazing crest
drifting ruin
Gonna ask again, what are the most important gear slots for stats for a gathering class?
leaden ginkgo
@raw solstice thanks for that, that at least explains some stuff.
raw solstice
as you level up more, you get additional stacks of each. At 20 you get your second stack, at 40 you get your third stack. This increases the effects of AF/UI (damage multiplier, MP regen), though as far as AF is concerned, the additional MP cost doesn't change between AF1, AF2, or AF3
i.e. base cost of fire 1 is 800, and then in AF1, AF2, or AF3 it'll all cost 1600 MP.
umbral hearts at later levels nullify this additional cost, but that's a separate mechanic for level 68+
faint flare
With gathering gear you want at least 800gp for rotations then the rest goes into hitting the Gathering/perception requirements for bonuses on nodes
Which balance discord should have
leaden ginkgo
@raw solstice aah I see. That clears it up, I guess I should have waited until I got to level 20 haha.
Anyway, is there a more "detailed" version of that guide you posted? I understand some of it, but not all...

I was pretty worried about holding up a group!

Pretty much just follow the players
Sometimes they'll interact with something that takes them somewhere else
and at one point there will be a key to pick up where everyone has to pick it up, so don't forget that

for the puppets bunker why does is say reward received 2/3?
lavish vortex
Is there a way to lower the size of the damage numbers and abilities names etc in a fight in PS4?
twilit arch
puppet's bunker has 3 items you can get that are weekly locked. 2 Cracked Stellaclusters, 1 Puppet's Coin and 1 piece of gear
the clusters and coin are dropped into your inventory upon the first clear of the week
So the 2/3 are the cluster and coin
the 3rd would be the piece of gear

Hey guys, I was wondering if there is a command to make my chocobo attack to the targeted enemy without having me to attack it first. I decided to use my first point on the tank tree and I'd like to start the fights with my chocobo

When I hit 50, I looked upped some of these full party guides for tanking in the MSQ. But then we just rounded the whole base up and AoE'd it down. When should I start paying attention to mechanics that might down me during old content?

If you do a fate with the relevant Yokai minion, do you get the legendary medal, and a regular medal, or jsut the legendary medal?

my dragoon friend wants to use valerian shaman's small glamour, but that's for white mage
is there an equivalent glamour for dragoon?
warped nest
Highly unlikely
twilit arch
newp

@thorny bluff regular medal comes from wearing the watch, it’s not related to having a minion out
But yes you can get both at once
thorny bluff
Ah, I didn't know the legendary ones didn't need that. Thanks for answering

My friend didn't see a referral code thing when he signed up. Hes doing the free trial. Will he be able to do my referral code when he gets the actual subscription still?

What does this parameter refer to? The “pop-up text one”

Pop up text is the damage/buff text from other people
twilit arch
parameter is your hp/mp

Thanks!!
obsidian patio
@sour path they can’t enter a recruitment code until they register the base game
sour path
They have the game but was doing the free subscription thing
obsidian patio
The base game is different from the free trial
sour path
Uhh I think so? What do you mean? xD
remote lintel
the free trial is not the base game
warped nest
I recruited a paying customer
remote lintel
they need to buy the game and apply it to their account
warped nest
Recruitment code
Free trial is trying the game for free with no commitment and some in game restrictions
cold crescent
been tryna beat this boss called azulmagia for a couple days, is he normally this hard or am i just really bad
warped nest
Starter Edition is getting the base game either with buying or via give away promotion in some cases. Registering starter give you 30 days and you are committing to paying subscription to continue playing after said 30 days expires.
cold crescent
ah
sour path
I'm so confused xD
cold crescent
well i dont have that one
faint flare
And some physical/magic spells to not reflect yourself to death
cold crescent
yeah its the lsat phase that keeps killing me

You could probably diamondback it if you're maxed and got healing after
Maybe throw gobskin as well

Then go get loom
sour path
I'm not trying to make you impatient. Sorry.
cold crescent
my fc can help me get it prolly
remote lintel
its fine
cold crescent
i'll bug y'all again if loom isn't enough lol
remote lintel
we're just trying to figure out if your friend payed for the game or is still on the free trial
neon aspen
is there a guide out there for firmament
warped nest
We are just make it clear that
neon aspen
that is up to date?
warped nest
Recruitment code is not give away freebie
neon aspen
i looked at stuff on google but its all from like a year ago
warped nest
It is a "gift" for people who recruited more paying customers
sour path
Well its on ps4. So he's doing like the game share thing with his brother. His brother owns the game, he made his brother's account primary, so the game is available for him. Thats how they play all their games since they can't afford 2 copies
remote lintel
he owns the game as in he bought it?
sour path
His brother owns it and he made his brothers account primary which lets the game go on his account
remote lintel
does his brother pay a subscription?
nova umbra
is there a lalafell female glamour outfit that's not too revealing?
sour path
Yes he does
nova umbra
something for summer but isn't skimpy
remote lintel
then he can't enter a recruitment code
sour path
But i was going to get him his own subscription after his free trial ends
faint flare
Ishgard restoration hasn't changed yet but will on the 8th so you got time to use old guides
sour path
It still wouldn't work?
faint flare
One in the #doh-dol-lounge is up to date
remote lintel
if his brother owns the game already, and your friend is using that payed version of the game, then he shouldnt be on the free trial
as far as i know you can't be on the free trial if your psn accoutn is linked to a paid game
sour path
@remote lintel I know for a fact he owns the game though o: He's been playing for over a year
remote lintel
you can only enter a recruitment code if you haven't bought subscription time
if his brother has bought time then he cant enter it
sour path
Oh! Okay thats fine :)

To unlock the ninja class, you have to get the rogue to level 30. Will the Ninja class start at 30 then as well? Or start at 1?
outer plank
at lv 30
warped nest
Ninja is promoted Rogue
outer plank
think of jobs as like an attachment to your existing class
newer jobs like drk and the like dont have pre-existing classes because the class system is sort of archaic
but cant really be removed
remote lintel
class level is job level
warped nest
Previously you needed to level 2 classes (one to 30 and another to 15) to unlock the Job for your lvl 30 class. This is probably a design choice made to invoke the Advanced Job design on other FF titles
warped nest
Anyhow
This is simplified to just get a class to 30 and hit a certain point in story to unlock Job advancement for that class.

ocean blaze
Welp, I'm sad to say that while my first Castrum run was smooth, and filled with nice people, it was an absolute face roll. Zero skill involved and just a mad zerg between cutsceens. As a trial player who can't access FCs or the partyfinder I'll say it was a truly underwhelming experience to one of the finales of a long arch. I'm sure the next dungeon will be the same. /sigh
remote lintel
thats just ARR
the next dungeon is longer and just as faceroll
prob 40 minutes long
obsidian patio
It’s because the dungeon was designed for people with barely level 50 gear and nowadays people are doing it with the best possible level 50 gear or better
ocean blaze
😦 It's understandable, and I'm not sure how they'd fix the experience, but unfortunate
leaden ginkgo
what's the level requirement for role quests?
remote lintel
like 70?
warped nest
It can be fixed by lowering the synced ilvl
strange coral
People would complain if it got any longer though
warped nest
But that's a discussion topic
ocean blaze
But then perhaps no one would queue for it
warped nest
So let's not go too deep into it
ocean blaze
yeah
remote lintel
people queue for it because its in a roulette
leaden ginkgo
afaik, it's a series of quests, and although it starts at 70 like you said, I wonder if the other quests within the quest chain remains at lvl 70
ocean blaze
Everyone was super nice and upbeat and understanding. A hallmark of FFXIV 🙂
leaden ginkgo
so basically I have to level another role to lvl 80
twilit arch
yes its every 2 levels
remote lintel
yes
leaden ginkgo
do I have to complete with all DPS types?
twilit arch
no, just a physical dps and a magic dps
leaden ginkgo
I just wanna see the extra lore at the end
warped nest
Just 4 line
warped nest
You can do SCH/SMN
leaden ginkgo
wow
warped nest
Gunbreaker is a tank that start at lvl 60
Dancer is a physical ranged Dps that start at 60 too
warped nest
Fair
warped nest
@obsidian patio dancer can do the physical role quest right?
remote lintel
yes
faint flare
Yes
leaden ginkgo
what do you mean, it can't?
twilit arch
its physical ranged...why would it not be able to do the physical dps role quests
leaden ginkgo
does dancer have role identity problems?
leaden ginkgo
honestly, do you think it's worth leveling up more jobs to 80 for that extra lore?
or wouldn't it be easier to just look at the scenes on Youtube and go on with the MSQ on my main?
warped nest
Sorry for the confusion
remote lintel
if you dont want to do it then dont do it
warped nest
By this logic
outer plank
@leaden ginkgo well... you could just level them for fun
warped nest
Then you can just watch the whole game

WHere do I go to see percentage of health left for enemies?

and to prepare for next expansion

I wanna do it, I just don't know if it's worth holding on a couple more weeks

or for any changes that may occur during patches
warped nest
It is a setting on your character configuration
leaden ginkgo
I like the ShB story
outer plank
1-70 is pretty fast now a days with armory bonus
remote lintel
twilit arch
Character Configuration -> UI Settings -> HUD -> Display target's remaining HP percentage @opaque pewter

you can probably get to 70-80 within a couple days of serious grind
warped nest
I like to level and play different jobs. So being able to do all Role quest is just a bonus for me.
opaque pewter
thx
outer plank
or 2 weeks of leveling roulette per day
leaden ginkgo
well tbh, I picked WHM and dropped it at around lvl 55
I tried AST after 5.3 for the first time, and I really enjoy it so far
remote lintel
if you like the shb story then its worth it
it also changes some of the older cutscenes
cedar cove
Is there a report function ingame if you suspect someone may be hacking/cheating?
outer plank
whm is good, some people dont like ast rn but i think thats because people say it feels to samey to the rest of the healer
remote lintel
specifically the cutscene where ||the role quest person shows up at your inn room, you can select who you want to see and if you do all role quests there is an extra||
median locust
@cedar cove System -> Support Desk
cedar cove
Thanks
leaden ginkgo
yeah it feels the same as Whm, just can buff party and play cards while they die
median locust
then Contact Us
rotund sable
People only dislike AST because it got nerfed lol
leaden ginkgo
I can't comment about that since I never played AST pre-5.3
rotund sable
It was honestly a minor change, if you like it now the dps is still fine
leaden ginkgo
I like the card system, that's it
on my glam plate it shows glasses, but in game im not wearing them???
warped nest
Previously, AST's 6 card has 6 different effects and there is a card ability to consume card to buff your next played Card
leaden ginkgo
white mage is kinda stiff
twilit arch
you have the visor option enabled @leaden ginkgo

@leaden ginkgo Did you try toggling the visor?

so i get to earn more gil as i progress through the game right?

thx kae
rotund sable
Yeah you get loads for just existing
leaden ginkgo
so there was a 6th card with different effects and another ability to buff current card?
brazen girder
was wondering if i should just run far or just spend
warped nest
No, the 6 cards: balance, bole, Spear, arrow, spire, and ewer
Has 6 different effects
outer plank
@brazen girder check your mailbox
leaden ginkgo
oh wow, they had?
rotund sable
Pre 5.0 AST cards all did different things but it's purely opinion which is better since it used to be more interesting but also more rng frustrating since realistically you wanted aoe balance
remote lintel
thats from referral
outer plank
ah
willow breach
anyone know if dps meter is allowed in ff14?
warped nest
Then there is an ability Royal road, that spend your current card, and buff your next played card by 3 different effects
brazen girder
wait u get gil back?
rotund sable
You can't talk about dps in game or shit on people
remote lintel
as long as you be quiet
rotund sable
But you can have one
outer plank
@rotund sable "not balance, redraw, arrow" FUUUUUU
leaden ginkgo
yyeyah I can imagine, wanting one type of specific dps buff
willow breach
so is it like. you can use meter, but cannot comment on it?
rotund sable
Oh and don't have it on stream
leaden ginkgo
yeah just dont mention the dps meter in game and you're good
unreal cipher
Similar to Summoners, is there a way to manually order the chocobo to attack or move? 👉 👈
rotund sable
Basically nick
warped nest
@unreal cipher no
unreal cipher
Ouch, thx
warped nest
Also, it is generally not recommended to let your chocobo tank
rotund sable
It's weird in endgame because nobody can say kick this guy his dps is shit but everyone knows why
leaden ginkgo
yeah don't let the chocobo tank, it has killed me several times
warped nest
You are a better tank than your chocobo (even if you play Dps or healer)
willow breach
ah ok i see
outer plank
@willow breach it goes against the tos but so long as you're not shoving it in peoples faces about there dps, devs dont care
leaden ginkgo
it pulls mobs you don't wanna attack
willow breach
was planning to get one so that i can improve in dps
warped nest
It's weird in endgame because nobody can say kick this guy his dps is shit but everyone knows why
@rotund sable not hard to visually see who is doing more
leaden ginkgo
dps or heal is fine, just don't rely on it for tanking
it stands on AoE and pulls mobs like mad
rotund sable
Well yeah but you still can't really say it so groups kinda just find another reason it's weird
warped nest
Most players should roughly know how every job's AOE should look like
willow breach
well for me, its more about seeing how i m doing, and self improvement
rotund sable
I mean in savage and ex more than dungeons tbh, if you're kicking for dps in dungeons you're playing a risky game
outer plank
if i see you aoeing 2 mobs we gonna have problems 
rotund sable
Yeah if you're going for self improvement it's fine
There's also fflogs and ffanalyzer or whatever it's called
remote lintel
do whatever just dont talk about it in game
willow breach
ACT is the best one available?

remote lintel
!faq altlvlguide

got to 60 from 50 by pretty much doing daily roulette

@willow breach 60-70 you do heaven on high

Roulette, palace of the dead 51-60, highest level dungeon
outer plank
70-80 leveling roulettes and dungeons
outer plank

rotund sable
HoH still might be worse at some times but yeah true
willow breach
ye i m lvl 60 rn
leaden ginkgo
all classes have the same exp requirement from 50 to 60?
willow breach
alright
obsidian patio
yes
willow breach
will check that out
remote lintel
70-80 do roulettes, beast tribes, spamming highest lvl dungeon
obsidian patio
all classes need the same amount of experience to level up
leaden ginkgo
including blue mage?
obsidian patio
yep
leaden ginkgo
hmm, might as well do some side quests
bronze sorrel
hello this means it can be put into the glamour dresser right
willow breach
also, by doing heaven on high, you mean spam it till lvl 70, right?
leaden ginkgo
yes
willow breach
alright i see
bronze sorrel
also whats the icon on the left
remote lintel
they were saying yes to faye
outer plank
@willow breach till 71
remote lintel
thats the GC crest iirc

then do highest level dungeons
leaden ginkgo
I've enjoyed leveling healer 60-70 through all Stormblood dungeons, the glamours are nice
twilit arch
can apply fc crest @bronze sorrel
bronze sorrel
oh
remote lintel
not just highest lvl dungeon
willow breach
alright ok. time to go get that quest!

roulettes, beast tribes, then spam highest lvl dungeon
bronze sorrel

@neat agate so i choose the servers based on the fastest ping?

most English speaking JP players go to the Elemental datacenter with Tonberry and Kujata being the main choices
