Actually, i think the Apartment is about the size of the Inn Room isnt it?
glossy flare
should I take up crafting like does end game crafting beat end game raid gear
@wind copper it doesn't but it makes you a lot of money
vital ruin
Then why'd I even buy an apartment I've the inn room
outer plank
its only bis when theres a day 1 new raid tier. @wind copper
but selling on day 1
will net you the cash money
marble drift
you can't decorate an inn room

thats why people prepare and gather mats before hand

you can't decorate an inn room
@marble drift
Did not know that
wind copper
so technically there’s a window where it is
wind copper
excellent
marble drift
yeah people buy crafted gear early because it has the best stats for pushing progresion on a new tier

raids are all instanced buddy, you can do everything through party finder
granite swan
you stand in town and magically appear in the 8 man raid :p
wind copper
no you just all go to the entrance to the raid using the mount

@slim jackal the ff15 colab mount
@outer plank we can still get it ?!?

Not available currently
outer plank
@slim jackal no.
potent lava
Will I see that in 50-60
whole wasp
it should reappear in the mogstation eventually too
outer plank
@potent lava do you really want me to answer that?
obsidian patio
SE has plans to bring back the event “soon” but with all the events that somewhat crowd each other in the latter half of the year, along with Yokai lasting until 5.4, SE is waiting for a clear time to it.
My personal guess for FFXV collab event coming back is mid-late January to early February
outer plank
@potent lava but yes, fray was a corpse
slim jackal
That’s good though. It sounds like there is a lot of content planned at the very least ? I was worried I might be playing a game on the down trend.
outer plank
just reinanimated
youll learn more about him or rather his friend in the 50-60 quest
potent lava
Ok I can take dark thoughts infused corpse for now
glossy flare
yeah just wait for the next job quests, I'm gonna say that he actually did exist before your mind made him into whatever
potent lava
Ok yeah that was the bit I was worried about
Since there were ponts where he said something and people reacted as if I said it
frozen karma
which of the birds can be farmed solo unsync at lvl 80? still need warring, round, rose, and white lanner

you'll understand that in time Jiku

All of them can be done as Paladin
Though Sephirot requires good RNG due to his mechanics
frozen karma
what if I only have NIN and DRK at lvl80?
outer plank
@potent lava its implied that people cant actually see him, and after all, it is "you" thats saying it
not good to bottle up your emotions
obsidian patio
Ravana can be done as pretty much any class
twilit arch
I would strongly recommend reading the quest journals for dark knight
obsidian patio
If white is Bismarck a class with good burst can solo it, not sure if DRK/NIN can though

@potent lava If you've already done the DRK 50 quest, you've got as much of an answer as you're going to get: ||The corpse that you found did not get reanimated. You imagined that Fray was walking around training you. When "Fray" said things to other NPCs, that was your character saying it||

You need to make a new FFXIV account for your new PS4 account.
outer plank
essentilly have an orb, if you have shock debuff walk into the cloud, walk back to boss, use kb resist or orient yourself west or east @tidal yarrow
vital ruin
I started with trial and made a new account/character then which I'm using till now
tidal yarrow
i cleared e5s many times xD i just wanted to know the paralyze part
proud willow
there is some process that you can do to unlink your old account from your PS4, but it's kind of convoluted
tidal yarrow
but thanks!
proud willow
if you contact Support they may be able to tell you what you need to do
obsidian patio
I think the hated of levin debuff’s pulsing AoE also does paralyze
vital spoke
You need to make a new FFXIV account for your new PS4 account.
@obsidian patio you mean i have to create a new ps4 account and use it with new ffxiv account ?
vital ruin
I don't have any old SE account
I just have one that I made after getting the trial
outer plank
@vital spoke yes you need a new psn because those who have the old trial arent eligible
its only for new accounts
or pc
proud willow
I don't think he's talking about the old trial

can i unbound my ps4 account from ffxiv account ?

Nope

It's locked

you can, but it's not a straightforward process

ok, ty i'll create a new ps4 account

I've seen a lot of videos stating SE accounts are locked to a psn account and can't be changed but idk
vital spoke
do i need to remove my ps4 account or can i keep it in the system ?

Keep it

Your new account will start anew tho
You won't have saves it's just a huge restart

also does the other expansions related with the others or they have their uniequ story

there are abunch of videos linked in #archived-lore-spoilers pins
every expansion chorologically follows the previous
they are literal sequels
for example ARR patch 2.4/2.5 is the build up for the 3.0 heavensward expansion

i couldn't find a video

yes they do, kind of. so patches x.0-x.3 are the expansion and x.4-x.5 patches is the build up to the new expansion

are the tools bought with scrips with sundry splendors worth it? or should i save em for materia?
obsidian patio
The sets can be used for pretty much the next expansion’s leveling progression
Handking at 70 for 70-80, the class-specific stuff at 60 for 60-70
The level 50 stuff is decent, but quickly gets replaced with the level 51 set
plain python
is there a reason why I cannot slot mateira in an item with slots?
vital ruin
Which data center do I transfer to
My time zone is GMT +6
obsidian patio
The materia might be too high level for the item
Materia has a minimum item level the equipment must meet to meld into it
Grade 7 and 8 materia require a minimum of i420, for example.
@vital ruin JP servers are your best bet. Elemental is where most English speaking players go to.
EU servers are a bit further away but not as drastic as NA
vital ruin
I c
And how do I change
I'll buy the world trasbfer from mig station but how do I use it
obsidian patio
It’s done on the mogstation and guides you through it
vital ruin
o oke

materia can be found on marketplace, right?
granite swan
Yeah

cool then, trying to make a relic staff for fun but have no materia
obsidian patio
The materia will list the minimum item level needed on the tooltip

So I join any world in elemental
I was thinking carbuncle or garuda

frozen karma
is there any point in having dream within a dream, and assassinate on separate buttons? on the ninja, since they always go together anyway can you just macro them to be both activated right after each other?
obsidian patio
@halcyon kite do the nearby quest “absolutely glamourous”
Don’t macro abilities together where they go off in a row.
If you have to macro them just have it to whatever one is able to go off does.
Basically like
/ac “Dream Within a Dream”
/ac “Assassinate”

What is the benefit of having multiple characters? You can have all jobs on one character so im wondering.. asking cuz of the standart sub^^
glossy flare
and I'm not sure lousoix is actually that small
having multiple looks (race, gender etc.) is really the only reason why one would want multiple characters
more important for rp reasons

How do I get to the uper part of Sea of clouds? I go where I think it connects but can't get to the rest of the map.

i mean according to a tracker site ive found (dunno if its updated or not) lousoix is like 74.7k characters created/active while stuff like moogle (112.9k) and cerberus (111.6k) is more
and idk if thos are tru
but its not the smollest no
twilit arch
if its ffxiv census, its not really worth looking at
especially for active numbers since it cuts out a huge amount of players
glossy flare
yes but the same census site has Twintania as an even smaller world and I'm on that one
and I don't have any of the problems you describe 😄
twilit arch
either way, if you're looking to buy you can always use world visit

idk i dont have problems with it

How do I get to the uper part of Sea of clouds? I go where I think it connects but can't get to the rest of the map.
@solid estuary Two possibilities: You either need to be able to fly or you're not far enough in the msq

if you're looking at stuff to sell, then its a matter of looking at your server's marketboard and finding your own niche

Armorer/Leatherworker/Weaver mainly
dire saffron
why do my earrings drop like 50% faster than the rest of my stuff 
twilit arch
all of the crafters can be lvl to 15 easily from crafting items in the crafting log, and all of those materials can be bought from the guild fvendors
obsidian patio
@dire saffron normally shouldn’t happen, try having an NPC repair them to 100% and then repair it yourself to 199%
So they all even out
proven bay
Wait, overrepairs?
You mean items can have more than 100% durability? 
How does that make sense
obsidian patio
Yep, you can repair your own gear past 100%
proven bay
obsidian patio
Or more accurately, self-repairing adds +100% instead of putting the item at 100%
obsidian patio
You need the appropriate crafter at most 10 levels below the equipment
So a level 80 chest piece that wants weaver would need a level 70 weaver or higher
slim jackal
Is it hard to find a crafter ?
obsidian patio
You can’t ask other players to repair for you
Only NPCs and yourself can repair your gear
So you would need to level up the crafting classes
untold sand
is there a crafter leveling guide here?
slim jackal

Hmm... the NIN guide now requires us to request access?
green grail
it's being rewritten by the balance mentors so yeah, there isn't one up atm unfortunately

I see. Do you have a link for another?
But just a basic guide would suffice
Like, im supposed to start with a suiton then do the "hide only"skil, dots, assassinate, before everything else?

Question, If I buy ffxiv for PC1... Can I later install it on other PC's or just on the one that I bought 
?
stable herald
Thanks!
proud willow
You will be able to install it on other PCs
though you can't be logged into the same account on multiple PCs at once
forest lark
Oh so for example if I buy ffxiv on my PC and let's say my PC breaks... that means whenever I get a new one I can just simply install the game and don't have to buy it again?
proud willow
yes, absolutely
forest lark
oh ok then

Even if you didn't have the disc anymore, you could easily download it again

Im checking here coz im not sure if im just spouting bull
but provoke sortof attracts enemies across the room right
Eg in cutters cry
theres 2 mobs on each side of the room, a pretty big room
signal rover
Uhh... what do?
gaunt brook
I used provoke on one and everyone came towards me
glossy flare
eh, it's complicated
gaunt brook
even people maybe like 30 40 yalms away from the unit i provoked
glossy flare
short answer: no, provoke has no aoe component
twilit arch
check to see if you have fabled belt of casting in your inventory @signal rover
median locust
^
signal rover
@twilit arch I do, I'm wearing it 
twilit arch
then toss it
glossy flare
long answer: mob packs are connected so if you use provoke as the first aggro thing you throw at them then it will also pull all the other mobs connected to the one you provoked
median locust
That coffer includes one and since it's unique, you can't have 2 on you at a time
glossy flare
however you still need to generate an actually meaningful amount of enmity on all the other mobs
gaunt brook
ah ok so basically
Its like how walking near mobs attracts them to you, even if you dont hit them
glossy flare
kind of
gaunt brook
but if someone hits them itll go towards them
glossy flare
the game even has these lines connecting mobs that flash sometimes so you know to which mob pack they belong
but in general I wouldn't recommend using provoke for the initial pull anyway, at least not for mob packs
better to run in there and use your aoe
gaunt brook
kk ty, i was just wondering because it was something weird i hadnt noticed since i rarely used provoke in normal dungeons unless it was a mob going for the healer
warped nest
Even if a mob goes for a healer
The norm is, the healer should bring the mob to your AOE
Or you use your ranged skill to gain aggro in the mob

Warrior and Paladin are pretty simple
Warrior is more offense oriented and has tools to heal themselves, and Paladin is more defense oriented

*Id recommend starting as Paladin though since its much less active and just takes less damage in general

After getting max level in the free trial, when I pay for a sub I can just continue with that character correct?

Yes, you can level up every single class on one character

healers and tankers are sought-after

Healers are in need the most so if you want to get through content the fastest play a healer

you an also queue as a DPS, and do other stuffs while waiting
analog galleon
With how long the story quests take you can level a healer and a dps about evenly and just queue up as healer for the mandatory dungeons
plain python
summoner/scholar combo is nice cuz they share same level, so you can do healer if you want quick queue, while using DPS class to kill things outside quick

this is the easiest method ^

As a tanking class or DPS

anyone do these fashion report things? I found a guide for this week's challenge on reddit, but there are no pants listed. not sure if that's because it doesn't matter or because they just haven't found the right piece yet?

Fashion report requires a piece of gear in every slot
faint flare
If there's nothing listed then you can use anything
strange coral
If the guide doesn't list anything in the "easy Xpts" sections, it's because you can use whatever there
elder meteor
right but I mean it might not matter which piece it is in particular
so for the other slots, there's one item listed off to the right and the others under the gold (8+ pts) section. is there a reason that one is listed off to the side, or is that just weird formatting?
strange coral
Not sure what you mean. Which one are you looking at?

like dhalmelsin vest is on the right while the other 7 chest items are under the gold (8+ pts) thing

better to learn it right from the get go
I understand your problem though, the tab targetting in this game is uhm... interesting
but it's a matter of practice really 🙂
limber heron
But am I really losing that much time? if I have to move my hand to tab, cast, move back to wasd, aren't I losing as much time as whatever is lost via the macro
faint flare
Yes
glossy flare
it's not a lot of time on one individual cast
limber heron
Aand it's not like tab just hits my target's target, it could go anywhere. so I end up having to click the screen or jsut fire on random targets

but it adds up
