No option when I right click each piece
did you unlock glamour?
@leaden ginkgo everywhere, mainly crafting
Yes I have ages ago
The option is Cast Glamour
go to the glamour dresser in the inn
In Vesper Bay
what exactly are you trying to accomplish moltres? because you are saying that you cannot do something, but then when we tell you how to do it, you are saying that it's not working, but you aren't actually doing what we say
are you trying to manually glamour on the fly or are you trying to use a glamour plate to link to a gearset
all I have available in the right click menu is "unequip", search for item", "link", and "search for resipies"
show a screenshot
maybe he means change class? i don't think you can use glamour plate while flying
he only has 1 class
change class can also means change the glamour/appearance of the character

@patent citrus Not what I meant by "on the fly".
moltres, show a screenshot of you right clicking the item you wish to glamour
And I am NOT changing class
I thiiink i see the issue
We all do dw
Glamour plates are used to apply glamours to the gear equipped or on that item set
Are you right-clicking the belt?
Belts dont have glamour
Yes
@faint flare any specific towns or NPCs I would have to go to?
Cause they aren't visible
Belts have no models and canโt be glamoured
Hey folks - I just finished realm reborn. Never played the game beyond level 50, anybody got a guide they recommend on what I can do to stay on top of things (armor, iLevel stuff, etc?) feeling kinda taken aback by how open it feels now
continue on your msq
^
@leaden ginkgo everything is glamour if you like the look of it..
Stuff in gold saucer for mgp/things from fashion report...nice looking armour etc
For Gil-bought glamour items thereโs two sets from the vendor near Ulโdahs big Aetheryte
A suit and a dress
I usually just buy poetics gear and then get the rest of the upgrades from running dungeon (if your msq no longer gives you gear)
So that was the problem.
Don't stress about that stuff, Kai. It's meant to be played at a casual pace. However if you use !faq poetics it'll give you a guide as to what to spend those on
@faint flare Ah. Gotcha. Thanks
i would also highly suggest you actually put items onto a plate in your glamour dresser
so you can apply them for free in cities
Np ๐
Do it in #kupo-bot-spam
For personal use
Commands go in here if its related to answering stuff
Ahh Got it, thanks. Sorry about that
Why does the marketboard list something but then say "item not found" when I click on it?
because nobody is selling it
means no one is selling it
the # off to the right of that listing shows you how many are listed
just because it CAN be found on the marketboard, doesn't mean it always will be..but it can be searched for
Where to get "Thick rimmed glasses" then?
yea its gotta be crafted
you can also world visit to other worlds and see if those market boards are selling them
How do you visit other worlds? And is there an upcharge for buying from a different world?
No
You visit other worlds by interacting with the aetheryte
In limsa, uldah and gridina
go to an aetheryte in a City State. (Those are New Gridania, Limsa and Ul'Dah)
Is there a limit or can I hop worlds until I find them?
no limit
what does it mean when there is an exclamation mark next to my gear sets?
Is there a faster way to level alts 70-80 (Tank) thats not just doing highest level dungeon?
gear in that set is no longer in your inventory, @unborn dock
You can freely hop worlds
@leaden ginkgo beast tribes, roulettes
or the glamour is conflicted
You're just slightly limited on other worlds, like you cant access Retainers or Mail on other worlds
what does conflicted glamour mean?
any glamour error
Gear set saved a certain glam but you glammed the items to something else
wrong class, lvl too high, etc
Is "Residential District Aethernet" the option to go back?
okay, thank you.
you removed/threw a piece away that was glamoured or yeah that stuff^
No
Same option to go back, visit another world
And just pick your home world
Which has a icon next to it
To tell you that that world is your home
The residental Aetheryte is to port to Housing areas
Which role has the easiest time getting a parse?
every role, not sure i understand that
Entirely fight-dependent.
lets say for SoS
Like, itโs really easy to get a 90th+ percentile in casual content if you overgear the fight
alrighty
Ranged but you're staying close to hit things with the aoe procs
Both those glasses and ruby red dye were a little pricey but I wanted my character to be wearing red glasses like I do
I'm after some help finding the names of armors I've seen in screenshots, can I post that in here or there another channel for that?
ye i was just curious for lb usage
for WoL as per that link btw
Hi, I want to move my 14 game from my hdd to ssd, do I just need to move the entire installation folder or do I have to uninstall and reinstall?
just move the folder
make sure you change any shortcuts to path directly to the installation folder
@calm phoenix there are other shades of red dye that arent pricey
dyemongers in the main cities have them
kk, this outfit looks fantastic and I was hoping to recreate it so if I could get some help with the names of the pieces that would be much appreciated <3
https://izayoiishikawa.tumblr.com/post/180581759770/monk-time-in-rhalgrs-reach
isnt that monk af
Looks like just the Monk lv70 job gear
yes
they give you that set
can i request some assistance in obtaining the Nightmare mount?
oh wow ๐
actually those are the shoes
Where can I find my deciphered map? It's not in my inventory or saddlebag, but I can't decipher another bottled one because I apparently have one already deciphered.
Key items
far right tab of your inventory
@deft yarrow the top, weapon, and shoes are lvl 70 monk gear and the pants look like black lady's knickers
im not sure what the hat is
probably pvp..has a tail on the back lol
it doesnt match any pvp headgear for monk
kk thanks <3
also for this item I can only acquire it through pvp currency?
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/445d5a7ec36
yes
ok cool beans โค๏ธ
Is there a list of how much xp you gain on average per dungeon in shb?
hi, i have a level 30 goldsmith, but i cant seem to craft the pumpkin orange dye, can anyone tell me how
cause based on the wiki, i though u need gsm30 for pumpkin ornage dye
I met a magic pot and it asked me for an elixir. Does it give anything nice?
How expensive are things in-game
what things
magic pot
like say I farmed for Gil and saved up alot of gil just to purchase alot of the materials I needed for crafting gear
or things in general for my gameplay experience
if im a free trial when i buy the game will i be able to use the 30 days with the game?
and cosmetics
you dont need to buy things off the mb for general gameplay stuff
glamours can either be really cheap or really expensive depending on what you want
can you buy store gear and sell it on marketplace?
(I normally raid market boards in games)
you wouldnt need to buy crafting mats off the mb if you leveled them all together
and gatherers
@plain python no
so gil basically not used for much
not for general gameplay experience
The only thing you might need to buy off the MB is Neo-Ishgardian gear at level 80, but that's cuz it's an easy way to qualify for all the 5.3 and earlier content's requirements.
i wouldnt recommend buying neo ishgardian in the first place
Uhh... you're the one who recommended it to me a month ago lol
5.3 wasnt out a month ago
Exaggeration
still
dont think that was me because i would recommend farming eden verse
Mostly cuz I was asking how to gear up for The Heroes' Gauntlet (you recommended both tbh)
i dont remember saying that but ok
what server do you'll recommended to Join
me and my bf wanna meet alot of people and basically not be in the beginner towns alone mostly
xD
Faerie or Cactuar, cuz I have toons on both of those ๐
doesnt matter
More friends more fun
unless you're concerned about seriously raiding at endgame
I wanna raid
define many haha
Tbh, no matter what server you're on, there'll be tons of people in Limsa 24/7 ๐
^
And the other two capital cities aren't much less.
with people afk their toon playing music. Some nice, some horrible.
Mostly horrible.
Stop saying toon
Hmm
no
i read that playing their tune haha
so "Aether"
sure if you want
I'm guessing
Aether has the biggest raid scene but its soley due to the Gilgemesh server
the rest of the DC is more like primal in its raiding
aether and primal are basically the same
"flow"
@plain python please minimize shitposting on this channel thanks
is ishgard resto part 3 tomorrow?
Yes
@wispy parcel let people explain using terminology they're comfy with if its something that mutually intelligible thanks
does the "world" matter
Oh goodie. I finally get to participate ๐
@serene bison no
only in terms of what free company (player guild) you join, market for selling, marriage
theres world visit
Oh really?
and matchmaking is across the data center
Okay, THAT I didn't know. That's awesome.
oh and housing availability
so if I join on Gilga or the very first one I can still play with others on the same DC as me?
yes
but you cannot join non gilg guilds
or buy houses from servers other than gilg
and you sell stuff on gilg
but can buy from any of the other servers in the data center
what DC are y'all in?
Aether here
just because gilgamesh has the biggest raid scene doesnt make all the other worlds have smaller raid scenes
primal
Crystal here
I mostly wanna meet alot of people
and be able to have some nice wholesome fun in group content without stress
you will
i'm on sargatanas, also an aether server
coincidentally the preferred world on aether right now
if you want the spicy double exp
I assume double exp doesn't work with "visit server?"
you cant visit a preferred world and get a buff
but if youre on a preferred world and visit another you rbuff persists
both combat and crafting/gathering?
yes
ugh choosing a server
is weird
I want the extra exp for us
but also don't wanna force folks to switch over
not having the road to 70 buff is not the end of the world
you won't suffer from not having it
exp is for leveling up, once you hit the cap, you no longer use it, so I say choose your preferred server instead of Square-Enix's preferred server
I don't have a preferred server as a newbie
its just nice if you want to test the waters on multiple jobs while playing through the MSQ
that's why it's conflicting
if you have real life friends that are going to play alongside you
choose the same server together
we are
everything else is a moot point
What is the name of the samurai themed town in game?
but he having trouble picking
kugane?
ok if he's having trouble you have all your information
sarg is the aether preferred world
instanced duties are matched across the data center
So like how GW2 has mega servers
ok thank you
we'll goto the exp server then
since knowing him he'll want to use all classes on 1 character
if that's possible?
Hey everyone, where do I trade my Yo-Kai-Medals?
Bummer. Can't access it until SB. What city do I find level 50 gear in?
ishgard iirc
Thanks
you trade your yokai medals at the gold saucer @covert ruin
If you have poetics Ironworks gear from Mor Dhona also works
Cool thanks

if you want to play together youll want to select the same starting city
otherwise you can play together at lvl 15 in the story
yea that's the thing we're arguing about
since we play different playstyles entirely
He's more of the slow paced player with more time in thinking and I'm the "Magician" type with explosive response time and tactical thinking on my feet
you can switch classes early on
ohhh
as soon as you hit level 10 and do your lv10 class quest
you can swap to another one
if you wanted to
unless you want a class from a diff city
then you need to get there at lvl 15
or walk, if you can
ok~
most of the story is going to be pretty solo though so its not a huge deal if you start in different cities
What can I expect from the first incursion into the Crystal Tower?
What are the mechanics I should know about?
What are the boss gimmicks?
Expect few things: Chaos, Few instant death mechanics, follow the herd (mostly the ones that are in your party)
honestly it doesnt matter if you know, I did them earlier today and didnt know anything and had a no problems, its 24 ppl so 1 person doesnt rly matter
i cant even remember what the first boss of CT is because people just kill
all i know is kill
https://i.gyazo.com/69e2e1afd8ee3e917a0f1cb026c4d47f.png i'm confused, are the yellow ones quests?
but arent they all unlocked from main scenario quests in western highlands? i've completed heavensward
they are marked with the 
ah
Thanks you guys! :D
how should I use Aetherflow mechanism in Scholar? Have it up for healing, dump it for damage when the Aetherflow generating skill is off?
@manic shoal Its powercreeped too so any "mechanics" are just brute forced nowdays.
On first part you should know that in last boss, ancient flare cast = run to edges (usually marked). second to last boss (behemoth) is basically "go hide behind rock when he yells grrraaarrh")
2nd part has similiar mechanic in 2nd last boss (red carpet floor, youll know). Hide behind rock on "curtain call" cast. But even if you die, it doesnt really matter ๐
for what class
oh
if you dont need it for healing and its about to come off cd use it for damage
^
Aetherflow needs to be used on cooldown
Otherwise you're losing ogcd heals in the fight
As you'll lose stacks
If you are higher level you can use dissipation(?) on end of trash pulls to get 3 stacks (you lose fairy but gain 20% more healing). So you have 6 stacks easily.
Edit: not actually 6 stacks but 3+3
does fairy heal become neglect-able later like Cure I, or it is still nice to have?
i mean its auto
Embrace is basically a constant regen with a mind of its own
Always have the fairy out
Whispering dawn and fey illumination are very useful
And fairy is needed to use Seraph
Only heal you should forget is physick (unless you are really really out of MP or synced lower than 30)
Is the hall of novices worth doing?
Is there a craft able/dyeable version of the Valerian Rune Fencer Wings? ๐ฎ
Yes, it gives a free set of level 15 gear and gives a ring that you can use all the way to 50
Said level 15 gear probably lasting until 25 or so depending on luck with dungeon drops
Huh. Sounds good to me. I'll go do it then. Appreciate it!
The ring also gives you 30% xp boost (on kills only i think) till lvl 30
If you still have Road to 70 buff, itโll work well for below lv30 jobs
anything special I should watch out for vs Susano or Lakshmi EX?
Suzaku EX was a complete nightmare I gave up on
Can i gather skybuilder materials outside of diadem?
no
Stuff that says you can are from older phases of the Ishgard restoration and are no longer accurate
how much dwarf tank mount from beast tribe cost at the vendor and what rank do u get for the dance?
@proper junco 18 tokens and the dance is from rank 8 for 8 tokens

Hi guys, anyone had problems when trying to make a squareenix account through the website and error comes up whenever trying to enter the email confirmation code? i tried on 3 different emails always get the same error
How do I turn up the size /font of my FC chat been away for a few weeks been digging through char config
Any help would be appreciated
is the bard music player working?
Anyone, your corner chat? Increase size?
@solemn delta character config > log window settings
ill spoiler it since I dont know if its allowed ||http://bmp.sqnya.se/manual.html||
Fook its tiny on my big TV can I make it bigger any other way on ps4?
Do note if you want different โchatsโ to have different font sizes you must separate them entirely by dragging that tab away from the others
Oh no idea then, I donโt play on PC.
Ahh ok
Hey so I have a lvl 60 Sam, and I am trying to use the glamour for the Uwagi set you get from stormblood, but the boots and gloves say i cant wear them even though theyre for all classes and i fit the level requirement? I even tried using a new template
anyone seen this before?
I must be able to get it bigger than that?
what level is the gear you're wearing @signal wagon
@obsidian patio if your replying can you take a screen of what I'm supposed to go into. Just scrolled through can't find it
It's not a major issue when I'm raiding I'm on a monitor but
Perfect mate ๐
Log details was the one, appreciated
has there been any definitive mention on what's happening with the second-phase ishgard restoration achievements? i made it most of the way with gathering 50k items and crafting 100 expert recipes as each class but fell short
when does the rare item message appear for quick explorations? just some specific items?
friend of mine is telling me "absolutely for sure" all second-phase ishgard progress is getting dropped and the achievements will be unattainable, but i can't find anything on that
Fuck I missed my puppets coin this week searching now but I doubt I'm gonna get a raid
And phase 2 mats should be going away
Even as a dps
i figured either you'd still be able to do phase 2, or they'd merge phase 2 and phase 3 together for those
the point achievements are very unlikely to be going anywhere
Guys, based in your experience, how much gil costs to get 1 piece of crafted gear when a new raid tier comes out?
given that there's an achievement for getting 500k points in all categories
like instead of "Craft 100 expert recipe items for second phase" it'd be "Craft 100 expert recipe items for second or third phase" with maybe a new "Craft 200 expert recipe items..." achievement
If you still have some you can use them but you'll get little scripa
several mil @boreal monolith
i just hate the idea that i'm gonna lose like... hundreds of hours of progress for no reason :v
per piece? wow ok
i had figured for sure those targets were way too high to be made for a single patch cycle, even if it hadn't been delayed
generally, the new set of gear is pretty expensive on patch since its going to have materials that are released with that patch so no real way to stock up on some of the items before hand
also demand goes up of course
I see, thank you for the info.
i don't care about losing whatever items i have stocked, i just don't wanna lose the achievement progress... if no one's heard anything definitive about that then i'm gonna remain optimistic :v
is it possible to return to the royal menagerie garden area?
yea
teleport to ala mhigan quarter and find the gatekeep
How do I unlock extreme trials in stormblood? I have the regular ones and i have spoken to the Wandering minstrel but I dont see the extreme trials
And it might have been patched in by 4.2?
ive taken screenshots there recently-ish, there's a gatekeeper notable by the green staircase icon on the map
Generally quick quests unlock the EXs
@old sequoia did you talk to the one in Kugane?
tyvm
yEA
Are you sure those ex ain't there?
High End Duty are reserved for the current ex/savage + ultimate
Any old ex/savage just goes into normal duty finder
Do i have to go complete all the trials first ?
it's probably what I hate most
about DF
older EX content is lumped together with normal
I talked to the guy in kugane and he wants me to tell him stories of my adventures
They made it pretty easy you just speak to an npc then you have access but I'm talking ShB
Yes
Yeah there's usually a choice
And those unlock their extremes
Just talk about them all
@twilit arch ty BTW thats what it is, i havent geared her yet for 60, tysm
You'll get a ping unlocked
no problem, something to keep in mind when you're glamouring. Can't put a higher level item onto a lower level one
In lore, the ex and Savage are the fictionalized version of your adventure, written by wandering minstrel. He throw in a bit of writing creativity to make it more exciting to listen to.
ok ty
Yeah if you like the story listen to it, not one myself but plenty story in there
I cant find any Grade 2 Skybuilders' Iron ore in daidem.. am i doing something wrong?
hey guys, how long till maintanence
all i see is grade2 skyb ore or zinc ore
I'm never getting an EU puppets bunker ๐ญ
Each node time is a 50/50 on what it shows
67 minutes
for diadem, there's no point in going for a specific node. Just do laps around the zone and then use the augur to blow up mobs that give the item you want.
any advice for new players ive been doing msq's and the other blue quest and the card sliver quest
!faq newplayertips
Will 5.35 give us farming puppets for 500 ilvl?
5.35 will be for Bojza and relic stuff
The weapon upgrade for Allegory should be added like 5.38
Yeah took a little break static broke and now I'm waiting for a queue at 4.34 before reset lol
Bunker isnt going to be unlocked fo,r drops until 5.4
Puppet's bunker won't be uncapped until 5.4
How does the augur work in diadem?
Drops don't mean much unless they become upgradeable
Fills on gathering, takes 1 bar to use, get mats based on mob shot
24 man gear isn't every augmentedable
Far as I know no?
and its not intended to be anything more than intermediate gear for casual players to fill in slots while working on allegory
if I'm playing PotD from 51 - 60, level automatically goes to 60 right?
Gather things (gauge increases per gather attempt not with number of things collected) and then find something you want drops wise to murderkill and pop duty action
Yes
Remember that if you dont have soul crystal you are just your base class at 60. So you essentially have lvl 30 skills
Ok
If you like a complex class that takes focus and annoying movement keep going lol but they have good DPS in the right hands
monk doesnt take much focus
It's more movement that makes or breaks
Well its not noob-friendly class at least (Pugilist is ok, but thats only to 30)
for the idyllshire custom delivery person, are the required items fixed by tier? i.e., at level 1, is it always near east then at level 2 it's coerthan, etc?
or does it change week to week
ok cool. just making sure I could go ahead and pre-craft the next 3 level 2 ones so I can just turn them in as soon as the timer clicks over
Yep the "story parts" of custom deliveries are set in stone, so to speak
happen to recall what the level 3 ones are after coerthan?
If you're doing all 6 then you need 3 of the current one and 3 of the next one
right yeah
And rinse repeat each week
why does it tell me i havent unlocked Storms path skill when it gave me the skill when i leveled up?
Job quests
Do
Them
Also
You're probably synced
Under the level
You can use it
also what quest do I get a dodo or what ever the mount is called
Dodo is via Heaven on high i believe, from the higher floors
Which requires you to have at least done floor 50 in palace of the dead and do story past the Ruby sea in stormblood
Chocobo is level 20 main story - where you select grand company
yea chocobo
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
See top half
wait so do i need to get the quest?
Yes
wheres the grand company base??
There will be looot of stuff you need to do quest for in order to unlock it. It takes time to get used to but sometimes its fun
You join a grand company for the story
Depends which one you chose, if you have chosen one yet
The base location varies base what you picked
as part of the lvl 20
. you get to pick one of the 3 city-states grand company to join
Without too much of spoilers, you will get it soon after you have done your first "trial".
The grand company itself doesnt really matter. There are some cosmetic rewards at high ranks, but its mostly lvl 50 and below stuff so most people ignore it after mount
for example Maelstrom has this chest and head https://i.redd.it/jh6d65dmbk8y.jpg in highest rank. It will take quite bit effor to get to tho.
where do I sell stuff
are you trial or paid?
any vendor to NPC trade. if you mean marketboard, you require paid game and a retainer
Can anyone remind me does the ps4 controller buzz if you get your duty finder?
trial cause i dont have money lmao
then you cant sell to players. only to NPC
Yes it does
uhh any vendor would do but you can try looking in the 3 starting cities
Most vendors take everything and pay same price
they each have a hawker area
Cool. Doubt I'm gonna get puppets at this time but I'll play a bit of xbox. Cheers mate
is it me, or does eu act like their better the na, just like in general in mmos
hawker alley in limsa, sapphire avenue exchange in ul'dah and uhh i forgot what its called in gridania

Lack of dps ๐ญ
not really
There are some special vendors that dont take stuff but youll know if vendor has "buyback" button (where you can buy stuff back if you accidentally sold em. But only while you are in the zone. it resets after you log out or change zones)
Tanks full heals full ๐ญ
EU has less people than NA so its kinda hard to act like they're better
does the name color indicate something in the squadron roster?
some recruits have blue color and others have red color
I think its based on status - reds are "in duty" (dungeon, raid etc)
He's right that's it actually
i maxed my tomes already, what should i get? im still in 2.1 with a full set of ironworks already
which one should I pick between Susano or Lakshmi EX if I want to use one as proof of ShB MSQ readiness?
What level are you?
Get either new set or buy minions to sell in market board
currently level 59
Get 60 gear.
you can buy gear for any alt jobs
but i cant access the npc
hey what is the recommended gear for level 70 miner? ๐ฎ
i can sell those for a good price on market?
You should get shire gear?
Shire gear unlocks after you do heavensward main story
Ah, not done that my bad. Tbh I would stay capped lol
@frank wigeon get the fieldking set for yellow scrip. good enough to get to 80 then think about getting better gear
Gil comes like nothing in this game
ohh, i am having trouble getting the collectables as a level 63 gear
do customs deliveries then
thakn you
Finish the story then get shire gear
then replace your mainhand/offhand should help
Whatโs this maintenance for?
i can sell those for a good price on market?
@soft bough Currently on my server Dust Bunny is 8k gil, wide-eyed fawn is 6k and Dodo is 2k.
Note that they are sold 1 per slot so one retainer can sell 20 at the time (which isnt recommended cos they dont sell THAT fast)
I say that cause I didn't know what to do with my gil
Not started proper crafting yet though
Unlike other MMOs gil is... Very.. Specific in FFXIV. Mainly you need it for crafting.
Otherwise you just gather and gather it
Most MMOs lately have been going that route. I think its mostly to combat certain spammers.. or just how the way of things are.
Theres also housing/apartments tho. thats gonna cost ya
ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
it's weird, since i can store the others just fine
Absolutely it depends what your after.
they'll eventually make it so the newer yo-kai weapons can be added
it happens sometimes, event items aren't able to be put in and you just have to wait a bit
If you want a nice wee house and omni 80 crafts with top gear then yeah, you gonna need gil
But dps gear, and top BiS costs nothing
whats enimity?
Well aside from getting started with Neo-ishgard gear I guess.
Then its mostly food, dps potions and repair costs.
Threat, who is the most "hated" in eyes of enemy
(you need to be fairly skilled to be 500 ilvl) but asides from that FFXIV is great when it comes to grinding
enmity is FFXIV fancy way of saying Agro or Threat
if you have high enmity, the monsters target you
The tank will always have top enmity
Should at least ๐
Unless one of 2 things
lmao im a horrible tank
They don't activate their stance
We all started somewhere
as long as you have tank stance on and are actively attacking the monsters, it should be near impossible to lose emnity to other people
well unless the other is another tank
Tanks should all get AOE by lvl 15
I think even at 10 they have one
There is no way for tank to have no AOE by the first dungeon
I know some Dps don't get AOE later, but that shouldn't affect enmity
Like 40?
Yes
I think drg gets their aoe the latest
Only times ive had MINOR troubles with emnity is when its lvl 80 and im more geared than tank (or tank was sleepy idk)
That shouldn't happen
Enmity generation is very very powerful
Unless the tank died super late into a fight
I can press 1,2 and you will never get hate off me on PLD
I mean like they had lvl 77 gear with mix of "artifact gear" and im in 498 ilvl
1,2 that's it
Then again maybe the tank was sleepy or didnt hit all mobs with aoe. ๐
Well that plays a factor but enmity is still way in tanks favour
if i have unmelded aest gear, am i able to craft 3 star recipes with non-hq mats?
only time I've been annoyed is when people pull mobs when I'm on WAR
is there a free company guide?
@normal breach can you even meet the stat requirements?
I've been spamming the bot, but I can't find one
What do you mean by a FC guide?
With a frontal cone 1, you can take a fucking hit for running off and pulling a pack while I'm getting them together lol
I want to make a FC, and I want a guide to see how to unlock stuff and level up
mainly for role playing reasons
Stuff are unlocked from leveling up
You level up by...
genuinely don't remember, mine just does
From me and my FC leader playing
(there were just two of us)
idk if i can @warped nest
Playing as an FC don't even need to play together just have a good amount of players
Invite your friends your family ransoms all adds up to your level
If this is any help, rank unlocks are like that
@normal breach here's how it works
Melded just to enough to meet requirement: need as many HQ materials as you can get to 100 percent HQ
Cheap Meld: need food + some HQ mats (anywhere between 1/5th to 1/3rd starting quality)
Expensive meld: food + NQ mats
If someone does a roulette it adds some exp
anyone queue for the weeping city of mhach?
Basically anything that gives experience or grand company seals slowly earns you free company credits
Does journal allowance reset weekly? Or do you have to wair hourly while online?
Levequest allowance?
Is it bad I missed a week? Annoyed cause that's a 10ilvl upgrade but old content is old just started playing a little late to join decent statics
Sure a 490 tank could clear any content right now
I started FF14 only last month; so no it's not bad even if you're 6 years late
Just 1 less coin but you can do hunts to infinitely farm them
Maybe ultimate being 500 has its benefits
To get the upgraded
What the puppets?
The upgrade mats
To get 500?
The twine and coat is also in hunt currency
3k and 2k each
Its the only repeatable and farmable source of upgrade items
Until stuffs unlocked
Yup. Usually weapon upgrade is locked behind savage
Didn't know that, but I also know that it's easy to get high level gear, but knowing a fight and doing it properly is probably worth about 10 ilvl lol
Didn't get to shiva savage but it will be probably me too easy in a new weeks
Few*
Next few weeks we're getting relics
I'm not giving up. Puppets takes what, 45-1h?
Whatโs the fastest way to gear a completely new lv50 red mage? just to be enough to do roulette trials and dungeons
Ironworks gear bro
You shouldve gotten chest/coffer with gear when you unlocked the job - that gear should suffice till 53 or so
If no tokens there's vendors cheap as fuck like 5 ilvl below the IW gear
Think ishgard correct me if I'm wrong
Ishgard has some lvl 50 or 51 gear yeah. Sometimes it can be cheaper on market board since people just want to get rid of their quest rewards
the coffer gives some glamour pieces
theyre not glamour
oh?
compare them to your gear
Quest stuff is garbage
Its like ilvl 115 tho, its suitable for dungeons ๐คทโโ๏ธ
You want token gear or buy greys
quest gear is not garbage...
post ARR gives you gear that is more than fine for the 50 content you do
Quest gear post ARR is HQ. Super good for leveling
Must of updated them then? Then again I never opened the coffers I just kept on grinding
they give you gear for a reason
wait so unmelded aes gear on its own isnt enough to craft 3 star recipes?
Yeah I maybe made a mistake thinking the latter stuff was so underleveled so they just sat in my inventory
@normal breach if itโs all high-quality then it has enough stats
using non-hq mats?
Though you might need to meld some CP for some rotations
so non-hq matswould make it impossible?
Double-check whatever rotations youโre looking at for their stat requirements
Since thatโll decide whether or not youโll need to use HQ materials
what do i need to look for?
When in doubt, do a trial synthesis and see how much quality your rotation gets
can you get more than 1 wondrous tails journal at a time if you have the previous one and try to get the next one?
you have to complete your previous one first
@normal breach #doh-dol-lounge message
Look in the DOH resource channel for the balance too
so I just got one but it's like just before reset. can I complete this one then get the next one for next week or will I have to wait until next tuesday's reset?
WT journals last two weeks, so youโll be fine.
cool thanks
you can wait a bit to complete yours first
and then pick up the next one before next tuesday
sorry what am i looking for in that link lol
@remote lintel you know yourself if your doing your dailies your gonna have plenty to spend on high quality gear but yeah the quest stuff gets you through
with WT second chances, do they build up between journals or should I spend them on this journal?

you dont need to buy HQ gear off the mb if you just use class gear and then poetic gear
They persist between journals
With the new 5.31 glamour set, will the matts be from treaure hunts? Therefore it would behoove me to buy maps now b4 prices increase?
@normal breach sorry, guess that rotation link uses melded gear. Go to the balance discord and refer to their resource channel
@light vine most likely from Ishgard Restoration
aw ok
is it better to spam the daily roulette back to back or just do it once and then queue for the highest dungeon you can queue for?
Yeah a mix does it I played loads though so I had too much poetics I knew what do with lol
Daily roulettes are only good to do once per day
Doing them again gives no bonus experience and is the same as directly queueing for that dungeon
for sure thanks a ton
Yep once a day. Short on time? MSQ, Leveling and Alliance raids
Best exp
MSQ can be a bore fest though get twitch up or something lol
yeah 45 minutes of browsing reddit while occasionally hitting my aoe heal lol
Is something gonna happen to the Skybuilders' Grade 2 stuff with this patch?
Lol true
my friend just loadded into ul'dah but i cant see him does he have to get to a certain part to see me?
\
@fluid wren - Are they on your world?
ya
Is he on same server
@rapid compass assuming the same thing happens like when phase 2 released, the Phase 2 turn-ins will dramatically drop in scrip income (single-digits) and the materials will no longer be obtainable
EXP turn-in should stay the same though
Then @fluid wren it may be that there's an instance? Check the main aetheryte in Ul'dah and see if you have an option to travel to instances? I was on the impression that such a thing didn't happen often, though.
If you join a duty partway do you get full rewards/exp?
In terms of roulettes, then yes IIRC
Yep
If they literally just started then you're in a solo instance for abit until you progress slightly
They need to do the first quest to see other players
And it'll count as a first clear if you've never done it before?
ok
He's not fully in Ul'dah just yet, at least not the social space, yea.
hey how do i set up mining nodes to get collectables? i keep going back to the appraiser and see the list and its time consuming. is there a better way?
is there a way to macro ground target use items such as those sometimes used in beast quests
hey how do i set up mining nodes to get collectables? i keep going back to the appraiser and see the list and its time consuming. is there a better way?
@frank wigeon https://ffxivteamcraft.com/collectables/MIN maybe this will help?
@frank wigeon the list doesnโt change at all. Just take a screenshot of the list or use the link above
And make sure your on the same server, it's a brilliant system but it's easily confusing between data centres and servers @fluid wren
is there a way to macro ground target use items such as those sometimes used in beast quests
@potent lava Not sure how is it with items but you can do " /ac (spell here) <t> " on macro and it uses the spell on target. <me> for yourself.
Not sure if you can for key items?
Me neither tbh.
Donโt remember seeing people make/share macros for those
yeah thats the part i was wondering
does hitting the bakc of a monster do anything
Melee DPS have skills that do more damage or give more job gauge resources when you hit the proper positional for them (flank/rear)
!action bootshine
what rank was expert deliveries again? storm sergant first or second class?
sergeant second class
iss it only melee classes?
Yes
AKA Monk/Dragoon/Ninja/Samurai
Getting close ๐
Tanks (which you could also count as "melee") dont have positionals, at least that I know of ๐
alright ty
Warriorโs skill Raw Intuition used to have shenanigans involving positional where they parried all attacks that hit them from the front, but dealt critical damage if they got hit from the side/rear
Just swaps in harder content well a few movements but no position for dps
The skill was also bugged for a short bit to where it caused healing spells that โhitโ the flank/rear to do critical healing
Also I think there isnt some sort of "if you hit from front, boss parries your attacks" thing in XIV. Tho I would never go in front of boss due boss cleaving you most likely (unless you are 100% sure its safe and have no other option)
Definitely, if your dps or healer don't go anywhere near the front of the boss Unless you know your shit ie doesn't cleave, tank busters aren't shared etc
Sorry, read that wrong, thought you meant the tank getting hit by the boss
Is it also good to face a boss South if tank Buster does not cleave? I seen tanks do that and that's what they tell me but I'm like positionals
there's no reason to
Boss North
Yeah I thought so
Is there a procedure for submitting in the ss contest like there was before (listing name/server etc) or do we just dump our image in
There's a few circumstances where you'll move the boss to stop your team getting a smash but 99.9% North tank
Is there a procedure for submitting in the ss contest like there was before (listing name/server etc) or do we just dump our image in
@leaden ginkgo just dump your image in
Few bosses in dungeons in stuff where you hsve to adjust. If the boss moves to the SE of the room tank him in the S/SE corner to give your dps max damage
๐
One thing I'll say I enjoyed the 71-80 dungeons. Hope they keep it up and improve next expansion
One thing I don't understand is how the... Fuck... Did MCH go from the best DPS from like unlocking until like 75-77...
Then 80.. Just dropped it lol
SE doesnโt really balance too much for the leveling process
So some jobs are more powerful early on due to having more of their kit
Notably most of the expansion jobs
DNC feels pretty OP at level 50
True. Even my mate who hates dps was destroying every melee job leveling I was like wtf
He did it on DNC too
Same gear
Phys R
I was like right im going on SAM lol
Is ther any app site or software that allows you to custom try out Armor glamour ?
FFXIV Web Model Viewer
Not sure if itโs been updated to 5.3 as my iPad doesnโt like the site
nice
@dim smelt
It has shadowless gear
Thanks a lot mate
Are there any bonus rewards (mounts, minions, etc) for completing Palace of the Dead Floor 100 outside of the xp?
Do note that for Viera/Hrothgar it wonโt tell you what headpieces donโt work for them
Title, mostly
So the ones that donโt usually just clip right through their head
That's fine I'm generic hyur
@brazen dawn if you solo from floors 1 to 100 you get the โLonely Explorerโ title
ah ok. ty
You also get to upgrade the padjali weapons to kinna upon completing floor 100
And when you do 1-100 in ~~party ~~ first time in any way its "Hero Of Gelmorra "
(Padjali/kinna weapons being level 60 weapons you get that look like the ones you use inside the place)
Ohh I see
knocks over that blasphemis object in the way
how often ffxiv got discount ?
Semi-random. We just finished a sale so I donโt expect another until Black Friday
||just finished post arr cutscene || i really regret not bought it last month

is there leveling guide for lvl 70 above alts?

what does prog mean?
someone told me eos and selene do the same thing now. is that true?
yes, eos and selene are the same. just different looks
prog means progress, so its basically indicating htat people don't have the fight down pat and are looking to work on progressing the fight as far as they can @unborn dock
most things die before you can cast, and it feels like your dps is low regardless
thank you.
so what moves gives a stack of chakra? just all attack skills have a chance?
Is there a craft able/dyeable version of the Valerian Rune Fencer Wings? ๐ฎ
Anyone know what hairstyle this is? I can't find it
gyr abanian plait?
yes thats it gyr abanian plait
er
no
sorry
that's female midlander racial hair
@gloomy mortar Deepgold Wings of Fending
You gotta be shitting me
someone have a good guide to explain and learn better the squadron system in arr? Its very confusing.
Screw midlander, they run like idiots
๐ญ
I love ponytails and braids, this isn't fair ;-;
Gyr abanian plait is a braid and ponytail
RNG will be like 'buy a fantasia bitch'
So my first character was a midlander
Before I got to the drowning wench I was like
No
Can't deal, shit run cycle
Lots of HoH grinding ig
Na new housing is 5.35
correct, new wards are coming with 5.35
ok i thought i was tripping thx
anyone who thinks ishgard housing is coming tomorrow is hella silly tbh
very very unlikely that this is the final stage of the restoration for one
I don't expect ishgard housing until 6.0 honestly
and two, an announcement would've been made similar to how they notified us about the new wards coming with 5.35
coronaface
Looking at the map for the Firmament thereโs still room for 1-2 more phases
Not counting this new phase
they tend to give people time to prepare for new houses
Anyone know how's the EN community in Kujata compared to Tonberry?
Less stabby
??? Stabby?
3h maint right? Didn't even realise went to go do roulettes work my FC lol
Tonberry go stab
Ohh
How long for the maint?
try kupo bot spam channel
command didnt work, probably only in #kupo-bot-spam yeah
3 hours found it
So day 1 was a success made it to level 14 with my friend at 10
What level do we start doing dungeons?
I just waited 200m for a puppets bunker to be fucked over so not too bothered
15
Both need to be 15
Then the fun starts
If one or the other is a tank or healer your life in FFXIV will be a lot easier
how is lodestone connected to game?
. cuz it says only lodestone is affected
15 is the first dungeon lol
yes, lvl 15 in the main scenario quest
You can't access it otherwise
its entirely possible to be over level 15 and not be at lvl 15 msq
which is why its important to say level 15 in the main scenario quest
@untold sand lodestone is the main news site for the game.
why is game down then if only lodestone is affected by maintence?
because there's maintenance for the game
Well, he's probably over leveled so it probably doesn't matter much. 15 is your first dungeon, MSQ or not
Let your friend catch up and enjoy it together
it does matter because plenty of people get confused why they haven't gotten their first dungeon yet when they're over lvl15 but their msq isn't at the appropriate point
which is why Channy made the distinction
Right I'll take my point back, I'm very used to MMOs so I maybe think everyone has the knowledge I do, which isn't the case
Hey uh , weird question
"An issue wherein the waist gear and accessories of augmented Neo-Ishgardian attire had the incorrect number of materia sockets."
What does this mean
@obsidian patio Thanks! Unfortunately it looks like a Dragoon canโt equip it, unlike the Valerian Rune Fencer Wings.. ๐ฆ
Does it mean that it should have had 2 slots
Sounds like it
Are we able to farm eden savage now for gear?
Acc 1
Since the restrictions gone
Could Ishgard Apartments come?
Not anytime soon
This sounds like we get an extra slot, Ripebear
Ish left and wep are same as crysta
Right crysta get an extra slot
The only argument to "better" is the weapon
And there is no argument +1 damage is better if you have the mats
There's a very minimal dps or hps difference if you want to plug in sub stats but if you are doing that and not doing ultimate you need to stop lol
freestatsthough
Free?
Any way to get a Wind-Up Yotsuyu nowadays? ๐
free as in beer (*free as in still have to grind for tomes to upgrade crafted stuff)
3 free sub stats are pale in comparison to STR on my BiS SAM, sub stats need a BUFFFFFFF
buy the stormblood artbook @gloomy mortar
@gloomy mortar code with art book should still be usable
Do you have to buy it from SE?
oh
Release Date: July 20th, 2021
Have you seen the difference in dps between 2500 DH and 2500 DET?
It's less than 100 dps.
Well, in my case
Im at full 490 ilvl on my alt jobs. And like... an insane amount of materia tokens
So i just melded it cus, frick it why not, its there
Admiral_Needa: to be assured get the minion code yes although other book sellers should also include the code with it (assuming it's like other merch and included in the slip)
490 tank feels good. Enjoy it. I prefer the... Math and dynamic of a dps though
PLD and DRK are fun but far too simple
I want a Yotsuyu action figure... Yshitola isnโt enough ๐
how long til maint finishes?
Just started ๐
in 2 years
2h 23m
thank you โค๏ธ
And a download most likely might get it before then
Can you update before they let us back in?
New to FFXIV I just learn very fast
isn't it 3h 22m?
says on lodestone EU 6 - 10 GMT, and it's 6:38 GMT
4
4 hours
Wtf mine says 3
@solemn delta yes the patch will become available for download during maintenance
They updated it
Usually halfway through
*Completion time is subject to change.
Has the maintenance started yet?
yes
yes
