I'm sorry another simple question when do I learn to make my own equipment?

Which you can after your lv10 class quest

question: trying to clear this old achievement since yokai makes it fast to clear em, any suggestion for zones for fastest way to get count clears of them, aside from outer la noscea?
fading hedge
ohh I see

my 2b reset
wintry chasm
Middle La Noscea always has a fate going. I don't think it's terrible
wintry chasm
There should be one to log into an existing one
leaden ginkgo
ok
I restarted the login thing and it's here

there's a six digit code it wants me to enter

if you dont need exp, grind fates in novrandt and resell stuff you can buy with the stones you get. atleast thats like, gonna give you something in return

to upgrade to the Standard Version

iirc 5.0 zones doesn't count towards that achievement

Wait why do you want to do that Floatz?

How do I unlock dwarven beast tribe?
Have to do the twosidequest chains in Kholusia and it also starts in Kholusia

Yeah but if you upgrade now you lose the free trial @leaden ginkgo

oh

I didn't know
wintry chasm
Try reddit Boar

are carrier quests only for fun?
leaden ginkgo
I'm ok with buying it all again
wintry chasm
Carrier quests?

i c. guess i'm wrong then. however, I already bought every possible rewards with gemstones, unless there's any worth besides craft mats, i'm not sure it's good idea waste time @ 5.0 zones :?

wintry chasm
Oh yeah it's really nice questchain
inland scarab
like i said, my original question is for fastest FATE clears
quasi widget
that would be in zones where no one else is doing the fates
inland scarab
at least just confirm this: does outer la noscea the only fastest clears?
wintry chasm
Hmm well regardless, I'm a bit concerned about your mogstation really since it's all in japanese, could you have not just like, made an EU and other regions account or something? @leaden ginkgo

:ooooo

also the watch I guess

I want someone to help me grind for that
wintry chasm
like, hildibrand or ultros
What error do you get?

@wintry chasm yessssssssss
thank god
I have time to grind everything with my friend
soft rock
Is the game down? The launcher doesnt load for me
wintry chasm
@leaden ginkgo But yeah back to you, I'd just play the free trial for now and buy the game when you hit level 50 since only then can you get red mage. When you do buy the game I just recommend buying it from the square enix website or something and just putting the code in Mogstation. Not look for the option in Mogstation
leaden ginkgo
oki oki
wintry chasm
Is the game down? The launcher doesnt load for me
Loads for me and I'm EU too
leaden ginkgo
I forgot how long this took to download
wintry chasm
Yeah well when you buy Stormblood and Shadowbringers you'll have to download their maps and stuff too

are there any pics of the youkai minions?

@leaden ginkgo you need the minion to get legendary medals and then you can trade those medals for weapons
leaden ginkgo
and how do I get minions?
wintry chasm
Normal medals
cold fjord
do fates
leaden ginkgo
yes, so
cold fjord
with the yokai watch equipped
leaden ginkgo
I get medals by doing fates with the youkai watch equipped
and I can use those medals for what
cold fjord
and then trade in normal medals for minions
leaden ginkgo
oh ok
wintry chasm
Put on watch -> do fates -> get medals -> spend medals on minions -> get minion out -> do more fates -> get legendary medals -> get weapons
wintry chasm
then when you meat the requirements talk to Jonathas in Gridania for the mounts
cold fjord
its a lot of fate grinding
wintry chasm
Ye
leaden ginkgo
what do the zones mean?
wintry chasm
Those are...zones
leaden ginkgo
like, it says zone 1, zone 2, zone 3
wintry chasm
Like Middle La Noscea
wintry chasm
Yes
leaden ginkgo
ok
so I'm assuming
Heavensward is not in Free Trial
and ik Stormblood isn't in the trial
wintry chasm
Yes
leaden ginkgo
and that's the only DLC I need for this quest, correct?
wintry chasm
Again you have 3 months so if you aren't being really slow I think you should be fine
wintry chasm
Buying DLC gives you all of them at once anyway
regal heath
Id also say if youre gonna buy SB, just buy Shadowbringers
wintry chasm
I mean you can't really buy Stormblood anymore
leaden ginkgo
ok, so buy Shadowbringers, and that includes stormblood
cold fjord
yeah you have to buy shadowbringers because you cant even buy the other dlc

If it's cheaper the complete edition is just both of those
I mean it could be I think but it's probably not?
whole wasp
iirc the complete edition is just base game + dlc price flat, no discount
marble drift
yeah someone in those comments identified that its Cloudflare just torching half the internet
and linked their status page
it is indeed their fault
wintry chasm
Yeah but if a third party like Amazon was having a deal.... @whole wasp ¯_(ツ)_/¯

thats why we tell people to buy starter first, finish it then buy ShB afterwards. ohyea

I just tell them about the complete edition and let them do the common sense and find the cheapest option

You don't even need to go to idyllshire now. Just find a Rowena vendor in a major area and select augmented shire gear (ilvl 270 I think but I don't remember)

so is it recommended to switch to a new job once you hit 50 before finishing ARR?
since it doesnt seem that new abilities unlock
proud willow
it won't negatively affect you to continue on with the same job

assuming you change your job already
you get more abilities the more level you gain

you won't have access to those new skills but you won't need them either, because all your content until Heavensward will be synced to level 50

with the amount of quests between the regular end of ARR and HW you could catch up with some jobs though, without slowing down your leveling progress on your main too much

thorny bluff
How soon does Materia become a huge part of building your character for instanced content? And is it worth getting/using the earlier materia from lower Ilevel stuff?
faint flare
Only at cap
young fjord
If you are a crafter you can remove lower level materia with 100% success rate, so it's not really a loss of using it, then again. there is barely any gain to use it either
faint flare
You change gear too often and get synced too often which turns off materia
crimson crystal
Yeah I really only use if it's going to be semi-permanent gear. Aka augmented crystarium rn
thorny bluff
Alright, appreciate it. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't gimping myself for further MSQ dungeon/trial content.
faint flare
And when you're doing content of equal level often, like current raids
thorny bluff
I'm still in mostly whites, so that's probably not gonna be a thing for much longer (hopefully)
faint flare
Materia is only required/heavily advised in high end content
Gear colour doesn't mean much
It doesn't mean rarity
White is usually Vendor or crafted
Gear is usually dungeon drops or crafted
Blue is raid/tome gear
Purple is relic
Pink os Aetherical which has randomised stats on it and only existd as low level accessories as everyone hates it
thorny bluff
I see. That's strange it's set up like that. Not sure why you'd need to know that it came from a particular source.
faint flare
Because it doesn't mean much
HQ white is equivalent to any dungeon/tome gear
Which the story starts giving you in heavensward
Post 50 you wont be using normal quality whites

and you don't have to go all the way into the corner

magic light
yeah, that is kind of safe
but go all the way to the corner if you can
i saw some dumb strat where the melee dps just ignores the need for that and stays somewhere close
i'm a bit annoyed at tanks who pull all the way to the edge

Hi, little question about Mogstation and Additonal Retainer
I already paid for the additional retainer I have, but I can't use it yet. It's been 4 hours from now
Is this normal?

Got a quick question about the Magia stuff in Eureka
I put points into an element and that strengthens that element right?
faint flare
Yes
regal heath
But if Im allocating points to an element, whats the point in rotating the wheel?
faint flare
It spins the magicite so it lines up with a different element
So you're now more effective against that element
regal heath
So effectively, you want to just stick all your points into one area because you can rotate it?
regal heath
I guess the only reason not to would be if you wanted an attack and defence bonus?
faint flare
With the echo and the kirin osode/verminion cloak dps/healers don't really need the defensive bonus
regal heath
I have no idea what osode/verminion cloak is
faint flare
They're armour pieces yoy can buy off market board to give you extra stats inside eureka

Better than my level 70 Scavean stuff?
regal heath
Oooh
faint flare
And because its i300, it doesn't get synced thus the materia in it works
regal heath
Is it worth investing in the set + materia then?
halcyon kite
what are some 2 player mounts?
faint flare
Wedding chocobo, the refer a friend amber chocobo, the Mogstation whale and fat moogle, and the Skyslipper from E4S, and the 2k mentor roulette mount

All but the RAF mount, Skyslipper and mentor roulette mount need to be brought

So I need some help I am having some major issues with the game and I do t wanna abondon it again. I have small fingers I play all my PC games with 1-6, s1-6, mouse up down middle mouse click and usually 3 buttons near my wasd. I prefer tank or melee but what class can I play with 16 keybinds?
halcyon kite
is that a raid
agile laurel
yes
faint flare
None
vital jackal
If they would allow the pvp auto que of combos in pve I could play anything but from what I hear the community is against that
faint flare
The community and Yoshi is against it
agile laurel
jobs are oversimplified as is
vital jackal
I use a Naga

Well guess it was a fun week in FFXIV back to other MMOs 🤕
regal heath
Sorry @faint flare One more question, the Elemental Bonus on the Kirins Osode gear, is that to all elements?
faint flare
Thats just flat stats
Its not to specific elements
Its just the name of the bonus
The bonus stats apply directly to you as if you're wearing another piece of gear
regal heath
I getcha, thanks

Don't use duty finder?
If you're doing extreme/savage/ultimate it's better to use party finder
You can find a clear party that knows what they're doing to some extent

hey i have reached max reputation in honored, i got the blue marker quest. since reset just popped. should i accept the 3 beast tribe quest and hand them in? or should i do the blue marker quest and then hand in the 3 just popped quests?
tepid kiln
Will there be housing?
faint flare
Maybe
No confirmation
Just playfully danced around
Always rank up when you get the rank up quest immediately
tepid kiln
Is there any reason for Ishgard not having housing?
frank wigeon
thank you

Is this the best channel to ask for class specific questions?

For my relic weapon, should I stop at a certain upgrade path if I like the look of it? Or is there some way to get the old looks of the weapon?
distant night
Hai fellow adventurers, i'm a new player just finishing downloading this game... i wish to know if there is someone who can mentor me on tank role (dark knight i wish to be)... and maybe to get a recruitment code too so we can add some action to the mentorship 😄
faint flare
Put on tank stance > hit things > use defensive cooldowns > you're better than 80% of Tanks
Tanking isn't that hard
Lowkey easiest role
distant night
aah easier than any other mmo i don't want to babysit ppl :v
median scaffold
Just really remember to turn on Tank Stance
its default off when you enter a dungeon
distant night
enough with handling my brain focusing on me alone
median scaffold
you have to turn it on every time
distant night
good i'll keep that in mind once i see where the switch is
median scaffold
if it’s on, you won’t have to fight for aggro— like in other MMOs. it’ll pretty much just work if you’re doing AOE
distant night
any suggestion on the proffesion or wathever is called here?
spice river
Hey guys, is there any benefit to buying the complete edition? Like is there even a chance of me getting to stormblood and shadowbringers within the first month?
median scaffold
When people are talking about “tank stance”, it’s just an ability. Every tank has a different ability name for it
Dark Knight tank stance is called “Grit”
wicked night
im new to the game and just got to my level 20 carpenter quest asking me to make an iron Lance and attach a single piece of materia to it. my main job is arcanist and none of my books have that high of a spiritbond, but on my botonist class i have a hatchet at 80%. would i be able to attach that materia to the lance?
median scaffold
it’ll be in your action list
@distant night Choose any DOH Job that you like the flavor of and you’ll be fine. I would say wait until you level up your first combat class first though before you start delving into crafting
distant night
ok nice, DOH?
median scaffold
Disciple of Hand
vivid wolf
You need to reach heavensward for dark knight tho
faint flare
Ideally you generally do all the crafters
median scaffold
Disciple of Hand = Crafter
Disciple of Land = Gatherer
and there’s also War and Magic
faint flare
As crafting and gathering is basically one big package and a completely different game
distant night
steep heron
@wicked night you can also buy materia off the Marketboard
faint flare
@wicked night use Materia melder NPCs and buy the materia off market
median scaffold
Maybe like do a gatherer job if you wanna have a break from combat stuff
wicked night
out of curiosity can any materia go on a lance or does it have to be deciple of war materia? ill go ahead and buy the materia off mb though
faint flare
Usually they ask you for a special one
steep heron
check the quest journal for more details
distant night
well i just guess that there will be stuff to gather or idk mine for example while im lvling through the world. so it might save some future time
steep heron
If the gatherer is low level you will only see nodes in lowbie zones
terse kindle
when am i able to swap class?
steep heron
msq lv 10
vivid wolf
Any time
faint flare
After you do your lv10 class quest
median scaffold
Crafting and Gathering jobs are entirely separate classes
vivid wolf
Oh wait really
terse kindle
how do i see that quest?
median scaffold
They have their own skills, abilities and rotations
dusty terrace
so - base game raids (lvl 50)
is it still possible to find people doing them?
Should I prepare for them strat-wise, or are they trivial nowadays?
vivid wolf
They are trivial
faint flare
Yes
steep heron
Most people unsync them
vivid wolf
You could cause a wipe
terse kindle
so i do that one and i can swap class?
vivid wolf
But you'll learn it fast
distant night
rotations? ok i better skip that for starters lmao
median scaffold
@dusty terrace If you understand the basic combat tells and symbols you can just wing it
median scaffold
@distant night I mean its not hard, but like, it’s a fully fleshed out class
dusty terrace
idk if i do understand them...
faint flare
Binding coils isn't done in duty finder and done Unsynced in party finder
gritty oracle
as a lv60 blu with half shire gear, will final sting kill me?
faint flare
It always will
gritty oracle
i mean when used on me
faint flare
No final sting is flat damage
median scaffold
it never hurts to lookup guides
that advice kinda goes to all of you asking questions rn
median scaffold
Guides will generally be pretty fleshed out and give a lot of information you wont get from short Q&A channels
dusty terrace
well, I want to get at least a single run of all content...
faint flare
No one does binding coils properly
median scaffold
You will, you have to unlock each dungeon by doing them
steep heron
Ya just put it up in party finder and mention first time bonus. Itll fill quick enough
distant night
yeh i looked at some dark knight guides and videos. came to ask for a mentor or referral code and got hooked on the conversation
faint flare
You'll end up unsynced it and face rolly at 80
median scaffold
Make sure you do all the blue + unlock quests you see
@distant night i didnt mean to sound like i was pushing you away lol but youtube FF14 gathering guide real quick. I can’t explain it really well
its not like in WoW where you just carry a pickaxe around and click nodes
dusty terrace
can i use party finder on trial tho?
median scaffold
You swap your gear loadout over to a gathering gear set and it gets really cool with the skills
@dusty terrace yes no oops
faint flare
You cant
dusty terrace
i meant free trial
faint flare
Free trial cant use PF
distant night
@median scaffold lol nope it's good, but no one want to share a recruitment code so we can get some free stuff :v
median scaffold
:V i would but I’m already coaching my GF
distant night
aaah okk nice @faint flare
median scaffold
i want u to find someone that will actually play with u
So I got distracted I actually had a question about Zodiac Weapons.
If I like Weapon XXX Novus, but I want to just complete the whole questline. Is there any way to get the glamour from the previous Zodiac steps?
Or do I need to stop at Novus
leaden ginkgo
just unlocked bicolour gems, do all fates drop just 12 gems or are there other areas or fates that drop more?
strange coral
You need to finish the quest line to unlock replicas, which will give you glamours for past relic stages
twilit arch
you can get replicas of the stages, but for the Zodiac replicas you need to complete a zeta before you can buy them
12 is max for all zones @leaden ginkgo
median scaffold
Oh really? Replicas for every stage?
faint flare
Super fates give more iirc
median scaffold
Okay badass. I’ll finish it then. I assume its the same for the future relic weapons too?
twilit arch
yes, but the other relic weapons don't require you to complete the thing entirely to buy replicas
you are able to buy them once you complete that stage

not sure if this is true but i heard that if youre a blue mage and in a party with someone, you'll get an enemy skill when the other person kills an enemy and the enemy uses the skill (probably couldve worded that better but is that true)
atomic brook
yea thats kinda what i meant, sorry lol
opaque maple
Thank you!
faint flare
And unless you're doing a synced dungeon, its still rng chance
But yes you can learn a spell if someone else kills ot
