and there's an alliance raid and a post shadowbringers dungeon that throws out a sickly green aoe
The grand cosmos?
Oh yeah, Syrcus Tower has that aoe
Naw I was more referring to the Hero's Gauntlet
When you fight the Spectral Necromancer
Oh yeah those
They also appear in the HW alliance raid
Where you actually need to stand in them to survive the instant death mechanic afterwards
Which class becomes summoner after reaching level 30?
Arcanist
Thank you
@tidal yarrow for legacy the easiest way to do teleports is to look at your debuff to see where you're gonna be teleported, then rotate your camera so the arrow points where you want to go then tap forward. You'll spin around and the portal will be positioned properly
shits so hard
i found out playing that fight on standard is 10x easier
so im playing that on standard the past runs
Using standard is much easier, but it makes moving around for certain mechanics much more difficult imho
I actually find it a bit easier on legacy, regardless
I wish it was easier to farm E7S .3. but PF hates me apparently
So many people who don't know where to go for portals or teleports
Drives me nuts
What're the Featherfall's Finest xyz crafter titles from specifically?
The new expert recipe achievements
ah
If someone tries to DM me while I'm in a duty, will it notify them that the message can't be sent because I'm in a duty?
They technically can DM you if you share a LS with them
Or a CWLS
And yes, it will be specific
Will I receive their message after the duty's over?
No
Nope
I have LS and CWLS with all my friends so if they ever wanna send a message to me, I can see it in dungeons and whatnot
just hit 80, should i market board a full set of neo ishgardian?
no need to if you're not at the content
there are ways of getting gear without spending gil either
neo-ishgard isn't a necessity either
Why does it say this when I try to send a friend request to someone via their name in the chat?
not on your server/not online
They are on my server.
so how should I go about gearing? I'm averaging 407 rn
You need to have the server name after an @ after the name I think
407 is fine at your level
want to settle on some gear that'll last a while
You need to have the server name after an @ after the name I think
I'm adding them directly from the chat.
407 for what level?
As in click on their name and select send friend request.
Oh, yeah 407 is fine.
its fine
Malikah's is 77
woops :^)
๐
Can this error come up if you've been blacklisted and try to send a friend request to them?
so what should my gear progression look like?
@quasi spire Just use dungeon and leveling gear until you get to 80, at which point you'll get a set of left side gear and a weapon in the final zone.
you'll get 430 gear from grenoldt after you finish your role quests
you aren't obligated to spend gil on it
Then after that you can either buy Neo-Ishgardian HQ gear, or grind tomestones and get Deepshadow gear, Eden gear, and YorHa gear.
After getting the 430, I recommend getting crystarium
As you prefer.
crystarium is weekly capped
but its one you want to work towards
as its the ilvl cap atm
Don't get the YorHa gear from copied factory, you wanna get the one from Puppet's Bunker
Since that's ilvl 490
That's also capped at 1 per week
copied stuff is a good step into it
^
Unless you buy neo
you need ilvl to get ilvl
hmm im considering at least buying the neo ishgardian weapon to make overworld mob fights less tedious
Deepshadow is also a good stepping stone into gear like idealised
Don't buy the Neo-Ish weapon
No don't
You can't equip it until 80 anyways, and the relic weapon is 485 and super easy to get.
he's 80 on his job but not in msq
Relic weapon is the easiest choice to get
but relic is the most accessible
Super easy to get too
reminds me I still have to finish Orbonne
Omg I love Orbonne
Orbonne is the best and easiest raid, and the amount of people that still die/wipe to it makes me laugh lol
I like how everyone says the 485 Relic is ez to get ... they aint taken an entire day waiting on Ques for the ivalice raids :p
What do I need for that? Is there a middle ground between ilvl 430 and 480 I can buy? overworld mob fights take like 45s per mob
there is the old facet combat gear
Do you have your lv 80 Role Quest weapon?
you don't need it though
old facet combat gear should be cheap as well
neo-ish is like 60k-80k per piece on MB I think?
he can't have it he's not far enough into msq
They haven't gotten that far in the MSQ yet apparently @granite swan
Depends on the type of gear
literally just hit 80 10 min ago
Whys he need 80 gear then? >.>
Where are you at in the story?
just back at the crystarium after wrapping up amh araeng
^
it doesn't do a lot for you
I hit 80 on my job before starting shadowbringers >_>;
Ohhh so you just started essentially
You really don't need to upgrade your gear now
I hit 80 back in heavensward lol
Just get to 80 and gear up like everyone else.
250 hours in :^)
By which I mean 80 MSQ
That's fine. Plenty of people do that sort of thing. ๐
You don't need to upgrade your gear for a good while yet

By the time you get to a dungeon like Malikah's Well or Mt. Gulg, that where you should seek out better gear, and those dungeons offer some decent gear
I just beat malikah's and am ilvl 408
MSQ gives you Weapon + Armor constantly for each new zone you hjt
Ya, I would def recommend farming gear from there and just advancing through the story
farming gear when you're not at endgame isn't necessary either
malika's gear is only 412 tho
i'm having trouble melding this thing for lvl 25 weaver's quest. how come i can't meld any of these?
Well it's a decent set for farming gear from Mt. Gulg anyways
Because the materia tier is too high
Need lower melds
Materia has a minimum item level it requires gear to be
That's really low gear, so materia I or II would be best
Any side content you'd advise doing that's unlocked at level 80? sped through il mheg, rak'tika and amh araeng all this week and want to slow down a bit
The raids
Which ones? I finished crystal tower series
The Nier raids for sure
you need to be in 5.1 storyline for edens verse iirc
ah alright
!faq contentunlock
Tho I highly recommend doing all the alliance raids
They provide some pretty neat stories that tie into other games :3
oh there's also the Twinning dungeon which is worth it for the soundtrack alone ๐
@quasi spire You want Stormblood Alliance Raid the Return to Ivalice stuff done also
yeah I think I'll just do a few elite hunts for a while now, it's late night on this data center
oh yeah you need to do the Ivalice raid quests in order to unlock the shb resistance weapons
Twinning Dungeon has some absolutely banger music
will try the raids tomorrow. i'm halfway through alexander will try to finish that off
Ivalice dungeons ... expect a couple hours to a day to do all 3 dungeons >.>
raids*
also is it just me or are trusts kinda slow? used them for dohn mheg and the run seemed to take forever
They're meant to be
They have horrible dps
They're meant to take on average 30mins
They are for us pleb dps who have 30 min que times :p
figures haha, I mained tank so never really felt that.
Is there some way to know beforehand if I've already received this week's NieR coins?
How far does scaevan gear scale btw? I want to deck out a few side jobs
The trusts dont do any AoE really is why it takes forever, they single target everything, i think someone said Yshtola has minor aoe, but meh
You can check on the DF page for the instance @white sinew
If there's 2/3 or 3/3 at the bottom right for that instance, you've gotten your rewards for the week.
2/3 means you didn't get a piece of gear.
It's still a great feature though. I have a friend who really isn't into dungeons because she's super afraid of doing something wrong but she loves the crafting in the game and basically does only that
But you gotta do those msq dungeons ofc
20-60 Squads - 60-70 HoH - 70-80 Trusts :p
HoH is the only time you have to deal with others heh
Scaevan gear will get you as far as Qitana Ravel before you really want to start replacing it @quasi spire
I know, I know :d
If there's 2/3 or 3/3 at the bottom right for that instance, you've gotten your rewards for the week.
@open coral Bottom right?
I told her all that, it just takes so long ๐
I don't see anything.
If you have the instance highlighted in the DF and don't see anything there, you haven't run it this week.
^
Nothing like that there. It's blank.
then you havent got anything
Then you haven't done it yet
is anyone leveling an alt that wouldn't mind a RDM tagging along?
Ultros or the same ds
What level MSQ? @honest merlin
77
Hey, did they disable the free trial? wanted to try FFXIV but I am unable to
No
Ahh, my alt isn't even to SB yet, so I can't help you out there, unfortunately.
dang oh well
if you guys need help leveling him e up i main tank and healers and dont mind grinding dungeons
@faint flare when I log in with the account info it shows me this
Please contact the SQUARE ENIX Support Centre for additional details.
Error Code: i2501```
2501 is a generic error
Have you previously owned the game or been on free trial for FFXIV?
Nope and nope
only way u can't do the trial is if your account owns it or u did the trial ages ago when it was limited to 30days
Clear cache on internet explorer, update stuff, connection things etc
anti virus might also be doing it
I'm only on defender now xd
using a vpn?
disabled vpn and adblockers
did you create a mogstation account?
Uh, I did create the I-believe-square enix account
use your phone to log in. much more likely that it doesnt have all the crap making things break
from the FF14 free trial
yea
is your account region somehow set to a diff region than yours
allrdy tried to restart your pc or router?
because it doesnt have all the malicious software your comp has
Well
bc SE systems just dumb
Actually I'd say my pc is more safe than my phone is but okay
Your PC so safe, it protects you from SE ๐ง
You dont need that
I cant add token, and it wants me to give a 1 time password XD
Yeah I have to use my cell connection and/or tethering to do some account management as well; my normal ISP connection is kind of blacklisted by SE or something lol.
One time password is optional
back out, do not do one time passwords
Just leave the field blank
jesus
the user experience department cried
when they saw that login screen
if I CAN LEAVE IT BLANK
But I am finally downloading it, thanks guys
Does OTP give anything more then the free port?
Besides greatly increased security to your account, no.
k
If I'll pick a tank or a healer, how are they doing solo? Do I need help for that (like WoW, they are slow af in dailies)
As I am mostly thinking about Paladin or Summoner ๐
Samurai looks edgy tho
Barely anything
Or maybe there's a recommendation for new players? ๐
Whatever you like the look of
you cant start as samurai
Everything starts off slow
I believe I cant start as Summoner too, right?
Arcanist
Gladiator
yes
Yep
Gladiator -> Paladin
after all that arena fighting you decided to go to school to learn some magic
Okay, and for example if I get up my Summoner to lvl 50 do I need to lvl other jobs from scratch?
Yes
the ARR ones yes
All jobs level independently
expansion jobs dont start at lvl 1
with 1 exception
just starting out, going to roll a pugilist into a samurai. good idea or no?
They start at "base" of expansion propably?
Scholar/Summoner share the same xp
HW jobs start at 30
Dark Knight, Machinist and Astrologian start at 30, Samurai and Red Mage start at 50 and Gunbreaker and Dancer start at 60
The rest start 10 levels below the cap for the expansion they were released.
Whats the best tank in hw ?
Anyway - how useful are Pala and Summoner in parties? I'd try samurai but I've read that it gives no boons
all of them
All jobs are good
all of them
Hang on
And I am coming from gw2 where boonshare is everything
Samurai gives the party the boon of a shit ton of damage ๐
in Gw2 we just dont take classes that deal dmg and give no buffs ๐
SAM is "selfish" dps. They don't buff the party but they bring the deeps
this isnt gw2
!faq meta
I'm serious though, boons are nice but damage wins fights
this is ff14
Its so annoying to know all classes are good
why? it means your fav class isnt trash
Because the devs actually care about balance

okay, so a question for seasoned players
I like they make like that
are you actually happy with balance?
yes?
Yes
why would you not want balance
For the most part yes
Why wouldn't we be happy with it?
What is 10 yalm backstep and enhanced enpi
I mean there is always something to nitpick on
But i come from a gome where 2-3classes were meta everytime
I mean, like if its a balance, or a "balance"
but yeah, it's really good
@tulip plover its a distancing move
10 yalms backstep is the distance you go
I'd say... thats actually kinda promising
@tulip plover It means you jump back 10 yalms, and you get a buffed version of your ranged attack.
When using enpi
10 yalms is 10 yards basically
its the distance youll back up
not that you can tell in game
And when do i use this?
when you need to back up
When you need to gtfo from a proximity aoe
Just dont do it within 11 yalms of the boss arena edge :p
@gritty wind All jokes aside, don't bother too much about the "meta" when you're just about to get into the game
Also, if I did story on Class A, do I need to redo the main quests on Class B?
No
no
just pick a class that looks fun and go for it
story is only done once
Story is one and done
MSQ is one-off
unless you make a 2nd char :p
@gritty wind All jokes aside, don't bother too much about the "meta" when you're just about to get into the game
@glossy flare I just don't want to shoot myself in the foot if something is buggy/rly shitty ๐
nothing is
and you can change class anyway
yea, but as far as I understand, I won't need a 2nd char
You can play every class on a single character, so even if one job isn't to your liking you don't have to start the whole game over.
I guess
Unless you play a job terribly wrong
I gonna lvl both paladin and summoner
So is enhanced enpi further and stronger?
and see their gameplay
Just stronger
its not further
!action enhanced enpi
And gives kenki
!buff Enchanced Enpi

@gritty wind theres a video in the pins that shows a brief overview of all classes
!action hissatsu: yaten
"Basically what class"
I've been watching yt while downloading ๐
And enpiโs tooltip gets updated when you get that skill
!action Enpi
For all that it's a bit meme-y, it's a pretty decent overview
Enchanced enpi potency: 320
...it should say it gives 10 kenki

it costs kenki tho?
The backstep does
Then doing the Enhanced Enpi gives you back the same amount in value
So you can do the gap closer
Which also costs 10
at the cost of ur combo
Yeah
Unless you've got uhh... that one ability that lets you just freecast three combo moves without their prerequisites

There's 5 hits
what are s rank hunts? was in dravanian forelands and got an invite to kill one but no idea what it's for lol
kk, just wondering if I could do a combo and finish it after nados
I mean probably but you're gone for a good chunk of time that most just range hit spam
nice thanks
There is one thing not mentioned and that's the algorithm for contribution on hunts/fates
tanks should gain enmity for full credit, healers heal, dps dps. this makes it so each role has a fair chance of full rewards...although tank is super easy to get gold while also solo
or full reward
If you're in a group and tag the boss, you'll get full credit though.
generally unless its a group of ps4 players with slow loads D:
As long as the rest of the group is also contributing
ah so I guess I need to actually go do these hunt quests lol
but if you want the rewards yeah doesnt hurt 
It's just a thing to do in your free time if you want to.
I didn't get any allied seals so figure I need to have done the quests to get those
yea
Yes, you'll need to have unlocked the appropriate range of hunts in order to get seals.
gotta unlock em in an order from arr>hw>sb>shb
is there a way to check the daily gc supply and provision without talking to the officer npc?
under Timers
timers the click gc
thanks!
I have a Character on Twintania I wish to transfer over to another server, however if I transfer servers, I must name change to successfully transfer due to someone already having said name, will the Name Change be given for free or must I pay for it?
How long is conflag's tornadoes?
@crimson wind according to timeline its about 17 seconds long from first cone to last cone
Hello. Iโm still pretty new to the game and I need some help. I just got samurai not too long ago (itโs level 54) and I need help setting up the hot bars (for controller) and fully understand its purpose and rotation. Sorry for all the ands lol
@spark igloo Id say it would be free
the name change is free if you transfer onto a server where your name is taken
I can show my crossbar for samurai once Iโm out of this duty
Oh wow tyty
there you go, although that is for lvl 80
but it should still give you an idea what it's about
Yeah I need something for lower if anybody knows one
there should be a whole sam guide pinned over in #archived-melee-lounge
Just remove skills you dont habe
that would be a good starting point
Yeah I need something for lower if anybody knows one
@tulip river basically at level 50, you have 3 basic combos
they all give you a sticker
when you have 3 stickers you can use "iaijutsu" to do a big slash
the number of stickers you have when you cast iaijutsu determines what the slash does
Using it at one sticker puts up a damage over time on the target
At two it does an AoE
1 sticker is a dot 2 is aoe 3 is big slash
basically at level 50ish, you use the 3 combos
to keep up your buffs, and to gather stickers
then you spend stickers on your slashes
while keeping the dot up
and also keep up your buffs (shifu and jinpu)
to be fair, keeping up the buffs kind of happens automatically if you keep collecting stickers
well sometimes mechanics force a break in your sequence and then you might lose one, so it's still worth to keep an eye on them
but it's also something you don't have to stress about when you're just starting out on the job
also a lot of sams seem to forget that their aoe combos only refresh the buffs but don't reapply them...
(which is really weird design anyway imho)
so need clarification
during world of darkness at the howling atomos fights
the lit up circles on the top platforms activate jump pads on other teams platforms, not yours?
So even if you all get punted off theres still a chance to be saved?
that's right
But what are the 3 that produce a sticker. Yeah only two worked for me on my other set up
kasha/gekko/yukikaze are teh three that give a sticker
I think you donโt get your third sticker combo until a bit later
when the combo are FULLY completed
you get them all by 50 @leaden ginkgo
which is when sam starts
ah, must be mistaken then
You also have access to an ogcd called Meikyo Shisui which lets you execute 3 weaponskills without having to meet any combo requirements but still reaping the benefits
Which is typically used on the 3 mentioned skills to generate stickers quickly
yeah fair enough
what's the max grand company rank?
kenki isnโt at 50 too is it?
captain at the moment
nope 52
once you get into hw job quests
!trait kenki mastery
what's the max grand company rank?
@olive heath captain
What's the easiest way to look for an actively recruiting FC for my server?
I can get the two bottom stickers. Itโs the top one I canโt get
Yuki
yukikaze, kasha and gekko
thanks :o I wonder why it says Im at the max allowable rank ๐ค
Anyone here know a lot about gaming keyboards?
thanks ๐ฎ I wonder why it says Im at the max allowable rank ๐ค
@olive heath are you trying to promote using seals and at 2nd lieutenant already? you need to do squadrons to rank up higher
ok thats why :o thanks
What does that mean a lot about gaming keyboards? if you mean what I think is a good pick then look at Reddragon
Okay so, for EU data center what are the "most played" servers?
All
Awww yeah okay got that fixed up. So once I do the 3 stickers then do midare set? Then restart? What about the blade bar
use that on kaiten for the 3 sticker slash
you don't have a lot to use it on at your level
and you don't generate enough to also kaiten higanbana
but once oyu do, you should always kaiten higanbana
Are there a lot of people who prefer tanking Phlegethon on the edge of the map to give people more time to run away for Ancient Flare?
I'm looking for a keyboard that can detach num lock keys but don't know any good brands
it doesn't really matter too much @elfin edge most people just have to watch anyways
You.. you want a moduler numpad? I'm confused.
Ah, I see... there seemed to be a contentious argument going on in alliance chat during a raid yesterday; I had always assumed it gets tanked in the middle
So just pay it no mind for now?
Get a regular keyboard without a num pad then buy a seperate device for the numpad.
Ideally Phlegethon is tanked in the middle so everyone has the same distance to run for AF
@tulip river First picture is my main crossbar, 2nd picture is my hold crossbar
@elfin edge phleg is in the middle after first ancient flare cast anyways why would you bother moving him after
thats silly
I mean Iโm assuming I can use it since itโs there
kaiten increases the dmg of the next weaponskill used immediately after it
You also get Kaiten at 52
Leaf, will the console or pc be able to read that as one keyboard if I buy it separately?
like apparently phleg has to walk to the center to begin the ancient flare cast, so technically you get more warning time, but then more of the raid have to run farther
Hi iam new in the game
lol true
I feel like more melee would die/you'd fail the AF pads mechanic more if you tanked it at the far end
its easy to see when second flare starts casting
Because B alliance would have to literally run from one side of the arena to the other
yeah I've found it a lot easier after realizing there's such a thing as focus target
its flare again
I got a question i enter with the free mode can i do dungeons and raids later in game?
Just easier and more effective to sit him in the middle
yes you can @opal vortex
Ah okay. Makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the help :3
you can do content up to lv60 stuff
@opal vortex The free trial allows you to do any content up to level 60, including dungeons and raids.
You can do all content lv60 and under on trial
Not that anyone really does the old raids, especially synced
If you then subsequently purchase the full game and a subscription, you'll be able to continue where you left off.
People do the old raids synced all the time?
Ok
Yeah, obviously not those
But the normal versions are easy to get groups for
And CT
Void Ark is a little iffier
Since it's not required for anything.
Some advises for me
is there any real diff in races cuz of starting attributes?
I am playing arcanist
!faq newplayertips @opal vortex
is there any real diff in races cuz of starting attributes?
@gritty wind no
the difference is so small that it doesn't matter at all
They literally mean nothing
The starting attributes are nothing more than flavor
Everything in character creation beside starting class is fluff
They don't even give you an edge at level 1
I think they don't even take into account your guardian deity etc in the plot
Things like guardian deity and birthday are just RP
Is there any point to farm the Dragonsung tools(like pickaxe) while Aesthete's pickaxe?
Is there any way to pay the description with ingame money?
And can the look be changed later on?
No soul
Aesthete, if melded all the way, will be the best gear in Shadowbringers
Is there any way to pay the description with ingame money?
@opal vortex no
And yes arah
No, you cannot pay your sub with ingame currency
Crafting/Gathering, yeah
There are no especialty?

Like blacksmith
ya, blacksmith, armorsmith, etc
Do your lv10 class quest then you can pick up other classes
is flamethrower useless
I am arcanist
When pvp is unlocked?lvl
Lv30
Ok
You get another at 15 and 30
Yes i read is a tank summon
Ok
Lv15 is a support pet
Summoner pet is just a mobile dot at this point
Fates
Those are just extra xp if needed
Story gives you enough gear
Ok
To get you through
Along with your job quests
You dont really need to farm for gear until cap

No, CONGESTED servers are flat out permanently locked
any date for next patch?
Wtf someone lied to me lol
You can play with them still via world visit
No enles
Thats for servers that aren't congested
Yet temporarily locked
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
See here
Oh,yeah someone told me if congested just wait until most people goes offline
Oh
You can still play with your friend via world visit @queen yoke
Provided you're on the same data centre
Just wont be in the same FC
yeah but thats just uh
I dont think aether has any
and there isnt even a slight chance it gets lifted before the next patch?
Nope
I wanna die
Eh? Adamantoise doesn't have it anymore?
!preferred Aether
Ouch
Crystal basically is all preferred
Well lucky me haha
Apparently a hair style I want is in the "palace of the dead"
But it's unclear where/how, etc
rng
Do I just keep doing it until it works?
From those lil baggies you have IDed afterwards
The accursed horde sacks
ya those
oh... so i should give up
Its tradable iirc
If I sat down and grinded dragonsong war and stormblood, is there an idea how much time it would take?
not on a free trial ๐
if itys ftom potd you can prob buy it
Unless you get some friends
You could always try the PoTD/HoH Discord :p
i'm more referring to like, literally sitting all weekend and doing this for 8 hours a day
yes
probably a week or so
Damn
12+ hours a day, you can do ARR-ShB finish in about 3.5ish weeks ... thats how long it took me anyway
HW has like 12+ hours of cutscenes
i'm at the start of dragonsong war, i'm just curious as to whether i can complete this and stormblood this weekend
Damn
hw or dragonsong
hw
i'm done with hw
you mean you're at the 3.x patches now?
yea
Dragonsong is post patch
a weekend is probably still not enough to get through stormblood
it isnt
but you could probably do it in a few days
I mean, if you skipped the cutscenes, you probly could :p

How do I decide on a BiS for my AST if I know nothing?
Can I just copy the guides in The Balance Discord?
yes
They're there for a reason
because the folks over there did all the number crunching
So you don't have to do the work
and peer reviewed their work
Something like: https://etro.gg/gearset/3e67ab4f-86cd-4954-bab7-b96f6f9fccc9
if you copied it from the Balance
Yeah, I just want to trade Allegory for some gear
then that's fine
I haven't actually even done a single 5.x ex trail yet
I just want to make sure I don't waste Allegory
When you want to relocate a Free Company house do you have to wait for the timer of the plot to become available or will it be done instantly?
what's the right way to do the beast tribe quests to double dip on a rank up day?
@mental lantern relocation bypasses the timer
Thanks so much!
@carmine jacinth you make sure you have 6 allowances allocated for that tribe for the day
Take the 3 quests > turn in enough to rank up > do rank up > take the new ones and turn in the rest
ah so it just lets you do 6 quests for that particular tribe, nothing related to the allowances, i guess
is there any downside to hiding ally enfeeblements on enemies?
you get the bonus 3 quota when you finish the rank up beast tribe story
that day
like is there any situation where its something i would need to know
it will take from your allowance of 12
what happen it, usually beast tribe only let you do 3
but on the day you rank up, you get 3 more as a bonus
so i have 12 right now. i burned 3 on the sahagin lvl1 (down to 9), then will do the rankup quest, so will it give me those 3 allowances back, basically?
You wont know when raid buffs go out like Trick/chain strat @pine phoenix
Allowances are 12/day that's it
coz i'm basically doing all four ARR combat beast tribe quests at once
so i'll be levelling up all four tribes today
ok, what happen is, sometimes, when you rank up, some reputation points are lost
so as a rank up bonus
you can use your allowance
to do a few more quests
from that tribe
got it
to make up for it
The arr tribes are designed so that if you do all the available quests for the tribe a day you'll rank up in 5 days
So now you can either slow down rep gain and level them all at once
Or pick 2
And do 6 quests each
For the day
Arr tribes will have more quests based on your rank
Unlike the expansion tribes
Which only give 3 quests aday except on rank up
You eventually get 9 quests a day from a given arr combat tribe
@carmine jacinth
got it
so since i'm distributing equally across all four tribes right now
there's no sense in double dipping since i'm not going to lose rep
Mhmm
Basically you'll rank all of them to 2
Today I assume
Then you can either pick 2 to rank to 3 in 5 days
Or rank them all slowly
i hear the second tier gives more rep points?
The arr tribes are wacky that way
So completing 6 quests that day will award 1/5 of the rep required to rank up
what is the general rule of yes i can sell this item to NPC?
And then at rank 3 you'll need 9nquests to accomplish that
Are hard mode dungeons worth unlocking?
They're extra source of tomes, more variety in roulettes
@dapper oyster do you need it right now? Does it have a market sell price more than its shop sell price?
i got lot of item with no pricing and they just fill my inventory
If you answered no to those questions sell them to vendor or throw them out
Almost everything in this game is reobtainable
i dont really need them i believe, i got them from fate and stuff
most of them only got like 1 quantity
its rather annoying atm
check marketboard and see if the item is worth anything
Fate tokens from arr fates aren't tradeable and only used for certain beast tribe turn ins
another thing you can do is check Garlandtools (website) to see if there is any trading/recipe that required this item
wow this piece of meat is 150 gil?
well thats something ._.
wonder if people going to buy it tho
!status Adamatoise
Check the history
#kupo-bot-spam
if adamatoise is available to make characters I can travel there and still progress in my character? play as if I was originally from the server?
Yes
You can do everything with world visit
Except buy houses, join fcs, access Retainers or mail
But otherwise you can do quests and overworld stuff like maps
Ok last questions can I do it as Free trialer?
Yes
oks
Stupid Question: How many HoH Grips does it take to get a weapon?
Ah k, i cant find the info anywhere =/
I guess thats why they throw chests at you, since it takes a crazy amount heh
@granite swan , this should help to:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1F0xB2MXNuuhbbQATPHTylMi-zeRIzTbyjWdSIuN-lPE/edit
Thanks ill check it out
And this was what you were looking for Meathil: https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Empyrean_Cane
This is just 1 weapon, but it is the same for all. PLD gets Sword and shield
one last question can do a full transfer to another server?
to do heaven on high, you have to have finished Potd right?
Floor 50 yes
like from Aether Cactuar to Aether Adamatoise?
@queen yoke
Yes, it does cost money.
uh oh
is there a way to view, how many floors you have completed in potd?
@shut kelp que up for it and it should show in the duty window
Yup, if you can start from Floor 51, you meet the requirements for HoH
Maethil, it only works if you have a save for the highest floor you have. (Or basement for PotD)
Question to anyone who has fantasia'd to Cat Dad, do you find you miss hats/helms? Considering it but the thought of never wearing a RDM hat 
I have head gear perma turned off, even on my dragogirl
anyway to know what types of materia to put on your equpment? for crafting do i get CP, Craftsmanship, Control or a variety of the 3
Does materia in elemental gear+1 factor into stats while in Eureka?
@rich bay True, but if hes pre 50, it should que up for like 21-30 or 31-40 no?
@normal breach #doh-dol-lounge is better place for question
@granite swan
Only when he has a save for those floors
ah
One question to my fellow adventurers. I'm about to tackle my Novus WHM relic and wanted to ask for experiences on what's your fastest ways to get Alexandrites for this stage. Hunts? FATEs (now that Yo-Kai is still ongoing)? Maps sounds rather slow poke.
FATEs may be kinda hard depending where you pick, lots of BLUs 1 shotting alot of em :p
Not on Diabolos X) But yeah there are some. Do I need to rank gold to get Alexandrite from FATEs?
@rapid kettle buying maps for poetics is actually pretty fast, each map gives 5 alexandrite and are easy to solo

||Lyse's|| hair style isn't available to players, right?

wink wink
nudge nudge
Does any1 know what the duty finder ping sound is when you find a group
out of those 6
system sounds
ok thanks
yesssss
depresso when you hear the queue at an important time tho
@umbral lance Elemental armour gets synced in eureka so materia is turned off
Since its over i300
how to put item into glamour dresser? like these lv 1 equipment, i want to put them in that dresser
@faint flare is this true for not only anemos, but hydatos?
As it all syncs to i300
oh it need to be casted first?
Go to the glamour dresser > put item it > costs a prism to put in
Use the dropdowns if its not in your inventory
and right click?
item comparison, try on, search for item, link
nothing like put item or store it
hmmm
Screenshot
The strife stuff can go in the armourie
Got prisms on you? Done the glamour quest?
you need to do the glam quest then
Need the prisms on you and do glamour quest
its in reavenants toll mor dhona
ah yes i have glamour prisms
lvl 15
you mean
go to vesper bay
vesper bya
I did mine in mor dhona like a few days ago so idk
@dapper oyster Screencap shows 0 prisms
like it's literally written on the bottom of the screen
helloo can anyone tell me the BiS materia melds for gatherer? using aesthete gear and stuff
is Potd and HoH queable in duty finder?
This may be a dumb question, but for on a preferred server, the double xp stops at lvl 60 right? After i reach level 60 with my first class, will i still get double xp with anew class?
do you need to be in a party for FATE bosses like odin to get rewards?
or can you join mid fight?
@dapper oyster Screencap shows 0 prisms
@halcyon glen it was in my retainer, i just got them out
also i finished the absolutely glamourous, so now back to the dresses and the option to put it in should be there?
Yes
alright i will try it after this
@hazy jay party is recommended to make it easier to get gold
You can come half way through
@torpid viper stops at 70. Switching to a class below that gives it back
thank you < 3
@shut kelp Newp, both require talking to an NPC every time
@faint flare but its still worth it to do it without being in a party?
@shut kelp PoTD in Quarrymill & HoH in Ruby Sea
You can
You may or may not hit max contribution for gold
Depending its hp and how it goes
if your in opo opo form
You alternate dragon kick and bootshine
thats beyond my scope sorry lol, I dont know much about ACT stuff
I setup rainbow mage like 5 years ago but I forgot what it entails
so i went to the dresser, right click on it and still no put item
i already have glamour prism in my inventory as well
did you left click

can i leave an undersized duty (where i'm the only member) without incurring a duty penalty?
yes
ye
is it possible to repair item when unequipped?
Yes
Just dropdown menu at the repair menu
iirc the best way to g et glamour prism is by exchanging FC seal, do i have to reach certain rank to do that?
GC not FC but yea
Glamour prisms are the 2nd tier.
So ...... Sergant rank is required if you want to buy glamour prisms.
No, just seals and doing your grand company hunting log
Am I stupid or something? I can't find a place to use recruitment code... or is it just too late? I made that account like, when the 2 weeks trial was replaced with permament trial
You cant use a RAF code on trial
I thought i have to use it before i sub...
Before you buy your first month sub
