If you clear a set of 10 floors you do

polar hound

you choose before you make the toon..at the top

im 11-20

faint flare
#

If you dont and you wipe then you dont

grim loom
#

So I just grind fates for this yokai event?

faint flare
#

Yes

polar hound
#

so you chose Spriggan inadvertedly.

faint flare
#

You picked the server when you made your character

#

Its what you pick after creating the look and stuff

jade lava
#

but spriggan is a place right?

faint flare
#

Yes

polar hound
#

it is a server yes

#

!faq worldstatus

polar hound
#

chaos datacenter, spriggan server. you can visit any other server under Chaos.

potent lava
#

Was the main ARR msq the only ones that got boosted xp; just noticed after ultima wep the xp is back down to four digits

faint flare
#

Post patch quests always give low xp

manic flare
#

how far do i have to progress in the crystal tower quests to unlock the MSQ?

faint flare
#

All of it

polar hound
#

all

twilit arch
#

you need to complete the final quest "The light of hope"

potent lava
#

When is crystal tower actually needed to progress btw? Im still at the exiled woman part

faint flare
#

Some point during post arr

leaden ginkgo
#

It would be best to do it in arr

polar hound
#

from what i'm reading yeah you cant progress beyond post-arr without it, havent done it personally yet tho since the changes

jade lava
#

this might be a dumb question but, if you can visit any server as long as you're on the same datacenter, what would stop me from joining a group on a different chaos server, or would that generally be okay?

lime geode
#

If I don't pay my subscription fee, can I pay in a week or two or does it only give me part of the time? That is, if I pay in 15 days, do I only get 15 days of game time for my monthly payment or do I get a full 30 days. I was thinking of taking a short break to get through my backlog of books and get ready for Rhythm of War!

strange coral
#

@jade lava You can do that. Duty finder and party finder are already cross server and cross world groups are a thing.

raven sage
#

@jade lava The main drawback is that you can't join a free company on another world. Otherwise you don't really have much restrictions other than being locked out of retainers, buying housing, or getting married on another world

jade lava
#

ok thanks guys!

ancient eagle
#

How do I hide the pet bar when I active my pet?

raven sage
#

@lime geode You can only pay for a month minimum so if you want to take a break you're free to hold off until you'll have a full month of time to dedicate again

lime geode
#

I get that- sorry my question is confusing. If I let my subscription lapse and pay again in two weeks, what happens?

raven sage
#

You get the month

#

It's just gonna offset the timing of refresh

lime geode
#

Perfect

shut kelp
#

whats the point of repairing your own gear if you have to buy the mats to repair it?

jade lava
#

what is a static group?

warped nest
#

what is a static group?
@jade lava players who meet up and learn/progress savage/Ultimate contents

twilit arch
#

repairing your own gear lets you go above 100%, so you can have 199% @shut kelp

shut kelp
#

ahh

leaden ginkgo
#

Is it possible to auto progress voiced cutscenes ?

jade lava
#

thanks

twilit arch
#

plus the mats can be gotten pretty cheaply from gc seals

little swift
#

Yes@leaden ginkgo hit tab during a current and it will let cycle to auto

warped nest
#

Aside from the 199 condition, imagine exploring a new map and your gear broke, and you haven't unlock flying/teleport for the region yet

#

... Can you repair inside an instance?

leaden ginkgo
#

@little swift im a console pleb

warped nest
#

I don't remember if you can or couldn't

raven sage
#

you can

little swift
#

You can repair in an instance

twilit arch
#

not really necessary now

little swift
#

I am not sure what the controller command is for auto cutscenes

twilit arch
#

since your durability is only affected at the end of the instance

polar hound
#

press Triangle or Y i guess for auto-advance

manic flare
#

is there a personal storage chest somewhere in the game?

warped nest
#

My instinct say Triangle

manic flare
#

i can't seem to put anything into my airmoire at the inn

Retainer Guide

What is a retainer?
A retainer is a private NPC that will act as a personal bank for the player, holding up to 175 different items, that can be summoned to any of the Summoning Bells around the world. Retainers also act as your means to sell on the Market Board.

How to unlock a retainer
First, you must complete the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn then go to speak to any of the Retainer Vocates located in the market district of any of the major cities.

What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)

polar hound

while the cutscene is playing, then you can press left/right on the dpad to adjust the speed

leaden ginkgo

Yup worked , thanks

Why the fuck do people use buffs pre pull in e6s?

polar hound
#

same way to turn it off btw

warped nest
#

Armoire is for seasonal gear + some achievement stuff

#

Why the fuck do people use buffs pre pull in e6s?
@crimson wind what job?

manic flare
#

what do people in raids mean when they say "pull"?

crimson wind
#

MNK, DNC

remote lintel
#

aggroing the boss

warped nest
#

Initiate the fight

#

Grab the boss

#

Pull the boss

remote lintel
#

also can you sell the minion from the new dungeon

shut kelp
#

big pulls are multiple groups of enemies

warped nest
#

Dancer ideal opener need Standard Step buff to be active

crimson wind
#

Im talking about BH and Tech

#

I've seen people use BH and Tech pre pull in 6s

warped nest
#

I don't know enough to answer that

polar hound
#

might make things line up better as they have multiple untargettable phases in that fight

#

no idea tho

warped nest
#

/\

#

Even then... I still don't see how it is worth giving up so many buff time

#

6s ahead of pull

polar hound
#

not sure.. you'd be better off asking in #endgame-lounge most likely a DNC main could clarify for ya

faint flare
#

Probably to line up buffs better with downtime

#

Just like in E8S

plain python
#

does I need to reach lv30 of a craft to desynth its particular items (like armorer desynthes armors)? Or I can desynth at whatever level once I unlock it?

faint flare
#

You need lv30 on the crafter

shut kelp
#

is it beneficial to still keep ruin 1 on your bar, in later levels?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Because it turns into ruin 3

solid estuary
#

Its your main damage

plain python
#

how do you use those Determenia from desynth?

solid estuary
#

Between cooldowns

warped nest
#

Rng

faint flare
#

Its rng

#

Crafting recipe

#

I assume you meant to type Demi Materia

#

is it beneficial to still keep ruin 1 on your bar, in later levels?
@shut kelp just to generalize, don't remove low level skill

plain python
#

dungeon sync gonna screw you hard 😄

warped nest
#

It is not even sync

#

XIV combat rotation is built around all your skill

solid estuary
#

Well if you are a summoner the heal skill is basically useless since it heals for so little

warped nest
#

You don't just keep pressing your lvl 76 and lv 80 skill

#

And that's it

#

It is 3-4 exceptions

#

Across 17 jobs

polar hound
#

even some with cliche uses such as Repose have use in say..Eureka or whatnot

warped nest
#

With 20-30 skills per job

polar hound
#

sleep etc

shut kelp
#

does scholar learn ruin 3?

warped nest
#

No

solid estuary
#

No?

warped nest
#

Scholar get Broil

faint flare
#

No but ruin 1 turns to broil

shut kelp
#

ahhh

crimson wind
#

Become broil mage

shut kelp
#

hawt

warped nest
#

Btw, Ruin II is not an replacement of Ruin

#

They have slightly different purpose

shut kelp
#

ye, i noticed

warped nest
#

Ruin III (when upgraded from Ruin) still have the same dynamic with Ruin II

plain python
#

Ruinaga

#

when are you supposed to use Cure III?

warped nest
#

2 cases

#

Stacked group you are in, and you need a lot of heal right now

#

Stacked group somewhere else, and you need to heal them a lot right now

polar hound
#

^^

warped nest
#

Cure III is radiated from a target you selected

#

Which is not like Medica or Medica II, they always radiate from you

polar hound
#

small radius though, so unless target is stacked with others it is just a huge mp waste

#

Akh Morn mechanics are perfect for cure 3 etc.

warped nest
#

The first case I mentioned is more common

#

Second case less common, but good to know

simple shore
#

Stupid question - other than ShB A Ranks, what are some ways to get single-digit amounts of Phanta

little swift
#

do the daily/weekly hunt marks

#

wait those are nuts i'm trolling

simple shore
#

Yes, those are nuts

#

lol

shut kelp
#

nah, they aint nuts

#

they easy

deft quiver
#

is there a way to just see my DoTs on bosses?

#

and remove all other peoples'

warped nest
#

Yes

#

Character Configuration - Display - HUD (?)

#

There should be an option to just view enfeeblement inflicted by me

#

Or something

plain python
#

can I do the same for party buff?

warped nest
#

No

plain python
#

yay

#

where do you get oaknot to trade with ixal airship builders in North Shroud?

molten spruce
#

is there a lvling guide for every crafting job?

warped nest
#

You do the ixal beast tribe quest?

plain python
#

well, they are the fastest to do, so yeah. At least until I unlock their mount or something to spend my gil on

warped nest
#

is there a lvling guide for every crafting job?
@molten spruce yes, ffxivguild (website) has it

plain python
#

help me leveling up my goldsmith too

molten spruce
#

thx brother

warped nest
#

Another more cost effective way would be doing the Ishgardian Restoration

molten spruce
#

does that tell me how make my way to craft superior stuff like neo ishgardian\

warped nest
#

That cost time, but a lot less gil

molten spruce
#

?

warped nest
#

It is an leveling guide

#

Not endgame crafting guide

#

But they probably have one of those too

molten spruce
#

idk how crafting really works xd

warped nest
#

You should learn

#

It is like learning combat rotation

molten spruce
#

im getting into it i heard it prints gil lol

half kraken
#

About how much extra damage do you take from a vulnerability stack?

warped nest
#

Unless you want to tell me that you just press whatev with your combat job

molten spruce
#

i do not hahaha

warped nest
#

The basic of crafting is: while making sure you don't hit 0 durability (durability is lower every time you used a skill), you use various synthesis and touch skills to improve progress (you need 100% to finish a craft) and quality (the higher this is, the higher the chance the finished product becomes High Quality, HQ for short)

signal rover
#

Does MSQ Roulette (Castrum / Praetorium) count for Wondrous Tails "Dungeons (Lv. 50)"?

warped nest
#

You have 3 stats:

  • craftmanship determine how much your synthesis action add to Progress
  • control determine how much your touch action add to quality
  • CP is your mana. Using action cost CP. CP is refreshed to the max on a new craft attempt.
plain python
#

can crafting share skills like gathering?

#

like, I can toggle mining node finder as a fisher

mossy current
#

They all have the same skills, so no reason to

warped nest
#

No longer necessary

#

They used to need to share, but now they just get all the tools

lavish vortex
#

What should I spend my phantasmagoria tomestones on?

#

That isn’t gear

obsidian patio
#

The crafting materials that cost 20 Phanta each

small atlas
#

which emote do you use to sleep on plush cushion minion?

obsidian patio
#

Compare the prices of them and buy whatever sells for the most.

#

None, that’s people using the /playdead emote from the mogstation

small atlas
#

ah i could of sworn it looked different

#

ha dont tell my weaver friend i guess

obsidian patio
#

The pose changes for each race

small atlas
#

i told him we could use it to sleep on but now we actually need the emote

#

i thought doze just did another when near it

#

/doze*

little swift
#

/doze only pops you onto a bed if you're near one

plain python
#

are triad cards from card packs obtainable by fighting NPCs? Or they are exclusive to card packs only?

warped nest
#

@obsidian patio do you know the damage taken increase from a vuln stack?

faint flare
#

Varies on fight

warped nest
#

@half kraken asked and it didn't get answered

obsidian patio
#

It’s fight-dependent, yes

#

Sometimes it’s like +10% and sometimes it’s like +50%

#

Same thing with magic/physical vulnerability debuffs

rancid finch
#

Is anyone willing to just chill and chat with me while I try to level up some of the classes? I'm a new player!

can you turn a personal home into a house for the FC you own?

Is 2x Archer the best DPS for Squadrons?

obsidian patio

@paper torrent nope

#

You’d have to relinquish ownership of the plot and buy it again as an FC house

#

@granite swan not as good as they used to be. From what I’ve heard Thaumaturge does pretty well too

#

Same with arcanist

i have 800k gil and just unlocked the ability to get an apartment, should i do it?

#

Basically, am I ever gonna need a lot of gil cause i find myself never needing any tbh

latent prism
#

if you plan on doing crafting you need ~3m+ capital

crimson wind
#

What's the least populated server in the game?

#

if you plan on doing crafting you need ~3m+ capital
@latent prism restoration is free tho

faint flare
#

You need gear though

#

Depends how much you wanna buy and how much you wanna do yourself

latent prism
#

if you want to do savage raiding then you would need food and tinctures. which are ~200k per 99 (I use about 99 potions every 2~4 weeks and 99 food every 4-8 weeks)

fringe lotus
#

But i still am in like level 57 MSQ, that stuff isn't for a lot later right? Could possibly recoup that money

#

And i Dont really care much for leveling crafters

latent prism
#

Also, neo-ishgardian armor (buyable raid armor) should cost about 650k for each role

#

for most people their gil-sink is raiding

crimson wind
#

You don't need pots

#

Pots are only for optimisation and pushing enrage

#

You should invest in food though.

I just finished the quest for cure 2. Is it a straight up replace situation, or is it a sidegrade you use alongside cure 1 due to the varying MP costs?

@thorny bluff spam stone, use cure II on tank when needed

remote lintel
#

cure 1 2 and 3 are different things

#

for different situations

#

also cure 1 is pretty useless

crimson wind
#

2 is basically a straight upgrade to 1 except it costs more mana

thorny bluff
#

So you generally don't use it from this point onwards, then?

granite swan
#

Until it sticks you in a pre-30 dungeon? :p

thorny bluff
#

Alright, just wanted to make sure, thanks.

#

@crimson wind do you not use aero as well, or do you just spam both when you're not healing?

crimson wind
#

Use aero

#

Always keep your dot up, but only use aero when it's about to run out

#

Use aero on mobs while the tank pulls more

thorny bluff
#

Wanted to make sure, since some other MMO instant Dots that healers have are generally worse than jsut spamming the damage ability with a cast time

remote lintel
#

you put a dot and spam dmg

crimson wind
#

All dots in this game are dps wins to keep up

thorny bluff
#

Am I going to want to focus on putting Aero on the entire group of mobs, or just 1-2 important ones?

crimson wind
#

Also once you get holy, you want to spam the shit out of it in trash pulls

remote lintel
#

a few important ones

crimson wind
#

Just aero 1-3 mobs

thorny bluff
#

Got it. Thanks for all the responses. Still rather nervous at my performance in instances.

remote lintel
#

healing is one of the easiest jobs

#

just spam damage and only heal if you NEED to

Random question what's the name of the glamour that the NPC at Cuff-a-Cur is wearing? (At the gold saucer)

ive heard that glam is the endgame, but also that their are 'vanity' items in the cash shop?

#

totally down for collecting lots of sets at endgame, just checking if it was all mtx or not

versed bridge
#

There's plenty of great glamour you can get without mtx. Some takes more work to get than others but the beauty of a glamour (as subjective as that is) is not proportional to its difficulty to obtain. That said, there are a few unique glamour's only available for mtx like a scythe or an angel's halo

remote lintel
#

@robust abyss mog station only has a small percentage of glam

#

most glamour items are got in game

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

40 is bonus?

@limpid lynx do divination on time

@leaden ginkgo DRG doesn't have leveling rotationguide

Also, is divination a button I press the moment it comes off CD or something I save for bosses?

dragoon doesn't have a complex rotation that changes much through the levels anyways

Don't be shy

leaden ginkgo
#

Does magic / phys damage exist in this game? Is it relevant? What decides if dmg is phys or mag?

warped nest
#

If it looks like magic

It is magic

If it looks like someone stomp/stab/flick/punch/face-slam/club you, it is physical

It is relevant, because some defensive skills only mitigate one type

there's only 3 dailies for ixali that require you to be another class for part of it, and that's the one that need you to gather items

plain python
#

a miner and a fisher. Not sure about botanist, but you only need lv1 for that if any

twilit arch
#

there's a botanist one as well

slate crow
#

So I can just buy the items if I don’t feel like doing class?

little swift

Horoscope is fine on its own as well

twilit arch

the daily items can't be bought

The daily turn for moonstones quest isn't that worth it tbh

I mean like the saint carp that fisher needs to get, for instance.

The regular ixal daily is better

Deliverance quest has 70 rep, don't they?

twilit arch

you can't buy the items you're asked to gather

warped nest

Allegory

#

You can earnn450 max per week

leaden ginkgo
#

Thanks

plain python
#

I think you shoud do Deliverance. It i gives you 70 exp for a single quest, and the items is easy to craft. If you cannot or lazy to craft higher items, you can always buy mats from vendors and craft a bunch of low-level items to turn them in

#

nice exp, especially for low-level crafters

#

it is the reason why Ixal quest ranks up very fast and open even more quests

I'm lvl 33 BLU with lvl15 gear, at what pace should I invest in new gears?

little swift
#

@leaden ginkgo use #kupo-bot-spam for that unless answering a question

#

Upgrade blu gear as you need when you're struggling to kill mobs in overworld

autumn oriole
#

You get everything from squadron command missions

#

I mean the loots

#

So it’s pretty easy to get a full set of gear if you only level with squadrons

little swift
#

@plain python loot works normally and 5 unique command missions unlocks the final flagged mission and 10 total unlocks emotes for purchase at your gc vendor npc

autumn oriole
#

And you can turn in the rest of the gear drops you don’t need and get a lot of seals back

#

And command missions are much faster than duty finder if you get everyone to offensive tactics 5

#

It’s my favorite way to level alt classes from 20 to 60

little swift
#

They give boosted exp as well

#

To compensate for the shitty ai

#

Ais are bad but the runs are actually much faster

#

They are stat kings

Yes inflated stats and knowing how to manipulate them helps a tonne

is there a world chat in this game? i dont really see people chatting in the general chat

gusty pasture
#

I just reached 60 right after beating nidhogg in HW and finished my DRK level 60 quest so I thought I could switch it up a bit. I don't like playing dps or heals so I thought maybe GNB is good, but if it's too difficult to play I might pass up on it for the time being

Hardest point is uptime, especially when you need to move the boss during a ammo combo

But otherwise no tank is really that hard

Outside of learning defensive cooldown rotations

#

No hail

alright. Best look up rotations before I begin. Thank you!

Probably a super basic question, sorry, but is there a better way to see which way an enemy is facing? I know there's the circle and arrow under it.

Can someone help? I'm trying to use the kupo bot to type in my character info but I keep getting errors

proud willow
#

you can use !iam, you just didn't put your server first

#

the !iamid only works if you go to lodestone and get your character ID# and put that in too

old hearth
#

Ahh gotcha, I'll try looking at the lodestone then

Hiten means you can just use the command !iam instead of !iamid

Guys ever got 90006 error ? I keep getting dced every few minutes

Ive tried everything on google and it didn’t work

weary ivy
#

What is free company guild?

jade quartz
#

9000x errors can have a wide range of causes because it’s just a connection interruption between you and the game servers.

barren mirage
#

so theres no actual fix ? is it ISP issue ?

#

my only hope now is vpn/ killping

Could be a bad node or other ISP service issue, could be a wifi card issue, could be firewall

Could be something bizarre and niche

jade quartz

Try disabling your firewall and try a VPN maybe

#

Try playing wired if you’re on wifi

barren mirage
#

its not firewall issue, i've made sure of that. i may try vpn soon

jade quartz
#

Meaning it’s allowing traffic from XIV both in and out?

twin sable
#

Any PS4 DRK user here? I wanted to know how you setup your skills :p

barren mirage
#

@jade quartz yes, ive flushed/renew dns too. the error alternates between 90001/2ish and 90006, when the game is playable it will lag soo bad

twin sable
#

I’m not having an issue btw. Just wanted to know if there’s a better setup

left moth
#

I use this as main crossbar because I'm naughty (macro is a dumb aoe of drain + unleash). flood of darkness deliberately missing. secondary set is extra def cd's, plunge, salted earth macro, etc. 3rd hotbar is provoke, shirk, living dead, and lb so can use them but not fat finger them inappropiately

#

skills are grouped by use (single target or aoe)

#

delierium is notably there because it's the same space in warrior setup for inner release (for extra muscle memory)

twin sable
#

Ah ha nice. Yours is better than mine. Thank you. @left moth

leaden ginkgo
#

Hai, im currently doing the quest for the anima weapon (AST) i only need to get one of each right? (Astral/Umbral Nodule)

warped nest
#

Giving out more general setup tip:

#

Weaponskills, especially your bread and butter combo, should be on face button

#

Considering you want to press them while moving

#

Key ability / other stuff you press often (but not as often as your bread and butter) goes on dpad, in the case of DRK, this might include blood weapo, edge/flood, Abyssal, carve n spit

#

@leaden ginkgo yes

twin sable
#

Ah ha got it

warped nest
#

(you can get more if you want to stock up for future Anima weapon)

twin sable
#

Screenshotting this 🙂

jade quartz
#

Highly recommend removing drain/unleash macro, and please also put flood on your bar. @left moth

warped nest
#

I will definitely put... Bloodspiller on face button though

#

Won't do it on dpad

#

It is a Weaponskill you press, 5 to be exactly

left moth
#

I don't play drk at the moment seriously so it's mostly for raid type content where single target focus is the norm

warped nest
#

I parked my Bloodspiller/Quietes and Delirium on my L2+Face

jade quartz
#

Raids still have AoE scenarios.

left moth
#

otherwise would try to better balance long cooldown aoes (salt and drain) with ones that should be kept up (flood)

jade quartz
#

And if you’re doing “raid content” then that macro is doubly a red flag.

warped nest
#

What's that button on L2+Square?

jade quartz
#

Just don’t macro combat skills together, period

left moth
#

I deliberately clip gcd to use it

warped nest
#

I forgot it

jade quartz
left moth
#

Lchronos: (ranged pull)

warped nest
#

The more you type the more you include reasons why you shouldn't

jade quartz
#

This is really bad dude

left moth
#

same spot for all my tanks

warped nest
#

I won't put that there, but that's personal preference

jade quartz
#

You should not be clipping your gcd as a DRK for any reason

#

It sounds like you’re trying to do some kind of... cooldown alignment delay tech thing? But that’s not a thing.

hello guys how does enhancing weapon/armor works here? is it like other MMO's where i need an x amount of material to enhance my item to lets say +1~10 and then i need protection things from +11~15 onwards?

#

if yes is it also an RNG factor, because i already have PTSD from black desert online 😦

twilit arch
#

we dont have a system like bdo

tender merlin
#

kalm

#

i was researching about enhancements and stuff and i found out about relics, is that how you ugprade things here, through questing?

#

or is it just like what i said where i need to collect materials to enhance +1~10

twilit arch
#

the upgrade system for this game is super basic in that you either get upgrades from crafting, dungeons, or currency

#

relic weapons are grinds mostly for glamour reasons

But isn't there a faster way like if I want a specific amount

You'd have to click and type it in

using your keyboard

if you click on the amount, it lets you type

Bjorne: outside augmenting certain equipment materia melding has garanteed slots which are only subject to stat caps, and (for crafted equipment only) overmeld slots which is roulette (materia lost if unsuccessful (5 materia max). ornate and some relic gear has 5 garanteed slots

green grail
#

should be near the settings for nameplates where you change names to initials

tidal yarrow
#

oh so there is the setting also for it

#

alright I'll check

#

am i i doing something wrong? it gives me an error message

is "C>" part of the command or just part of the console? (should be just ping [ip or domain])

doing the doman enclave rebuild stuff, after the demicrystal nerf whats the best material/item to donate?

left moth
#

usually msq only (when a cs can be expected to be around 40 min to watch without inturruption). first big one is ||The Parting Glass||

twilit python
#

whats the current best gear in the game, from what i can find its ilvl 500 augmented crystarium or edenchoir correct?

oak ice
#

Current best in slot is a mix of both

twilit arch
#

BiS is a mix of augmented crystarium and edenchoir

twilit python
#

why mix?

oak ice
#

They give the same amount of main stat but different sub stats

twilit arch
#

The substats aren't the same

twilit python
#

rooIsee gotcha

twilit arch
#

therefore you want to go for the one that has the better substats for your job

left moth
#

substat preferences (to max out crit and direct in most jobs, or to help with a desired gcd without melding which might be better spent on more crit/dh)

fallow saffron
#

are there such things like a xp boost

#

u can buy or something like that

left moth
#

food is 3% for cheap (in game), ther's some equipment that does a boost until a certain level (also in game). the preorder earrings are obviously not available at the moment. other than that prefered server character creation (road to 70) is the best xp buff. if talking job boost pots that's on mogstation

vital ruin
#

Bruh I thought my trophies would carry over to main game from the trial

leaden ginkgo

Is it a bad idea to try and level both mauruder and darknight at the same time ? I can't pick which tank class i like the most

Now I've to do all the trophies again MiqoteDepressed

#

Like kill your first enemy

left moth
#

kazzy: you're free to level them all if you find warrior more fun (to different play style). the only committment is time really

#

potd can help with playing around once warrior is unlocked (or any other job really) since it'll automatically put you at 60 (when doing floor 51-60)

is there a super easy crafting collectable to make right now that I can spend the next couple hours farming for a ton of yellow scrips? If so which one I have all crafters 80 or are they all basically the same and I should just pick one and go for it

#

I've been leveling dark knight (I got astro to 50 and was curious about it) and came to a bit of a saddening conclusion for myself.. i don't think I can efficiently tank because I'm visually impaired and can't read enemy casts to properly do mitigation and other such things. Sure i could enlarge the target bar, but at that point its all i see. I also tend to get turned around in dungeons a bit and have to pause to look at the map often.. are there any things I should maybe try? Or is tanking maybe just not for me..? I hope its the former as I love the dark knight class aesthetic and questline a lot and wanna be able to reasonably work with people

#

Note im on ps4

gritty oracle
#

You can go to Hud layout and separate the target bar to target hp bar, tatger status effects and target cast bar

#

I usually enlarge cast bar only so it's in my face

#

you could do the same

twilit arch
#

also, dungeons 51+ become pretty linear

#

so its not as easy to get lost in them, as they're basically straight lines

gritty oracle
#

if you're afraid of getting lost, you could ask the healer to lead the way and be right alongside them

twilit arch
#

you could also make a macro for the start of the dungeon to let your group know about your situation and that you might be a bit slower than usual

white sierra
#

Are macros a thing on ps4?

twilit arch
#

yea you can make macros on the ps4

#

its under the system menu > user macros

white sierra
#

I see, I think ill do that. Better to at least explain things than just try and be anxious about annoying people

#

I hope it ends up like my healing endeavors, a little uncertain at first, but not too hard when I've had a fair shake at things

#

I dunno i guess I just worry about being a burden or ruining peoples fun, but thats enough of my own insecurities. Thank you all for the advice. It means a lot.

normal pivot
#

Hey, what lvl does summoner become good?

#

cause Idk whether to lvl up astro/sch&sum first to 80

dim ridge
#

depends on what you count as 'good'

normal pivot
#

idk, a lot of dps maybe

dim ridge
#

imho, like, my own personal opinion, i don't enjoy smn at 80 atm, but enjoy sch at 80.

#

but i have friends who enjoy smn

normal pivot
#

I enjoy sch but kept hearing it's bad

dim ridge
#

all jobs are 'good'

normal pivot
#

and when I switched to astro, the only thing I preferred about astro is the sects

left moth
#

the smn milestones start at 60 but it's hard to say a time when it magicxally gets good

normal pivot
#

oh thats helpful, ty

#

i havent used smn since ~50

#

ill give it another try now

warped nest
#

SMN gets going, imo, once you are at lvl 60/70

normal pivot
#

nice

dim ridge
#

the level 60 skill gets the ball rolling

warped nest
#

Regarding Scholar, Scholar tool has more nuance to them and different ways to combine them

#

For example, you have an ability that guranteed a crit heal

normal pivot
#

I like sch's good mana regen

warped nest
#

And an ability to convert the shield part in your spell to direct heal

normal pivot
#

yea transforms galvanize

#

i prefer shield though

warped nest
#

You always have multiple options to heal a target, and it is a lot less straight forward than a WHM sometimes

#

Done right, a well setup Adloquim can be as potent as a Benediction

#

My more general opinion is, all healers have different tools to perform the same function

normal pivot
#

why is sch considered worse then

warped nest
#

It isn't

jade quartz
#

In cases where hp needs to be topped off for a particular mechanic, or the target already has a shield for example, then you want direct healing potency instead.

normal pivot
#

oh

However, in party match making via duty finder, double SCH is the least desirable combination

#

(obviously shouldn't happen in pre-made party)

#

Because Scholar shield overwrite each other

Duplicate anything is bad, duplicate SCH is worse than duplicate WHM or AST

@gloomy mortar it is for lvl 50 stuff

oil of time is to augment old (glam) tome weapons to make them glow (lv 50. augmentation at north shroud iirc since it might not have been covered by the everything augmented thing 5.3 did)
