halcyon glen
Which is why you use Ishgard
leaden ginkgo
maybe to like 20
halcyon glen
And tribes when possible
granite swan
bonus xp for each new item you craft, so just start at the top and work down the list
leaden ginkgo
yeah so i shouldnt even focus on crafting until SHB then
plush hound
That's up to you
halcyon glen
It’s usually not worth it, unless you’re in it for glams and such, until 80 no
fresh lodge
Being in ShB won't make levelling up crafters any easier
vestal needle
besides ocean fishing, is ishgard restor good for fishhing exp?
leaden ginkgo
yeah but ill have access to basically everything to craft
vestal needle
im lv 67
halcyon glen
I mean, it makes 71-80 easier for damn certain since Dwarves exist
granite swan
if your just gonna spam ishgard, just do it all after u beat HW
plush hound
Fishing in Diadem isn't bad, but ocean fishing is the best method.
fresh lodge
Yeah but when you're only level 10, thinking about level 71+ is a pipe dream
leaden ginkgo
idk i seen ishgard videos and its pretty fast
weary umbra
is there any way to mute the X has logged in. shit from poppin up in my log? muting the fc chat didnt fix it
granite swan
It is fast, but they dump alot of money into mass buying the materials
little swift
You also have to do class quests
leaden ginkgo
how much gil is a lot
remote lintel
@weary umbra its fc announcements
plush hound
That said, I found the Fishing grind and leves for ShB not too bad. I was leveling faster than expected doing that.
leaden ginkgo
class quest is fine
halcyon glen
That’s excessive for crafter leveling
granite swan
I think he meant in relation to leveling crafters
remote lintel
oh 
leaden ginkgo
yeah for ishgard lol sorry
granite swan
My biggest expense was the stupid jewelry for CP, but i didnt level goldsmith yet ot make my own >.>
halcyon glen
But as a practical matter, since you’ve indicated you don’t care about fun stuff and only care about practical crafts, most of the stuff you want to craft is only useful by level 80 characters anyway
granite swan
i think i spent like 4-600k on 20ish set and 50 set
leaden ginkgo
that got u to 80?
crisp mural
When is 5.35 coming out?
granite swan
Nah i stopped at 50 armorer, cause i wanted to finish msq
halcyon glen
You’re not going to be crafting gear for yourself at any level outside 80
leaden ginkgo
nope
my new classes
will need gear
not farming allgan poetics for gear or buying it
leaden ginkgo
nah ill just craft it
halcyon glen
And take a 30 ilvl hit. For 3 times the effort.
halcyon glen
So don’t farm Prae it sucks
faint flare
@crisp mural no date for it
halcyon glen
And I apologize if I made that impression
leaden ginkgo
Idc about the top gear I just find the crafting aspect of it fun lol
halcyon glen
Fair enough. In that case, as long as you have the Gil to burn on crafter gear, the patience and will to gather mats, and the MSQ progression to unlock Ishgard Resto there’s really no best time!
You can do it whenever
short lantern
I'm being told we can reorder local linkshells now, but it seems like we're only still able to do that for cwls. Am I missing something?
halcyon glen
It’s not going to magically get easier once you’re in Shadowbringers
leaden ginkgo
I know but I didnt know if there are certain recipes or w.e u unlock in SHB
I dont wanna craft stuff after HW if there is hidden stuff in SHb rather have access to it all
halcyon glen
Yes, but those are level 80 relevant only
You’re not going to unlock level 60 crafts by completing Shadowbringers
leaden ginkgo
thats not what im saying
if i was level 80 rn in HW im sure there is gear that is only allowed to be crafted at SHB or is that not a thing ?
gusty storm
how long after arr second credits do you get to ishgard
halcyon glen
I believe so. Each level cap is the only time there’s “Master” crafts you unlock, which afaik are in each expansion’s endgame area
That’s Revenant’s Toll, Idyllshire, Rhalgr’s, and Eulmore respectively
leaden ginkgo
what is a quick way to level a job from level 1 after changing jobs?
yeah thats what I was wondering but if its not a big deal ill start it after HW thank you everyone
faint hearth
are there any mount quests for level 35 and under, after the my little chocobo
quest
halcyon glen
@leaden ginkgo Hunting Log to start with
warped nest
!faq altlvlguide
zinc orbitBOT
little swift
@gusty storm you can skip credits
halcyon glen
If the second ARR credits are where I think they are, like one quest after @gusty storm
halcyon glen
That said, as Channy pointed out I skipped them so they very well could be somewhere stupid and random
halcyon glen
That’s the end of 2.0,
twilit arch
but the end of ARR as whole, no
weary umbra
unchecking free company announcements didnt work
twilit arch
you've got the patch msq to go thru, 2.1-2.55
halcyon glen
So in that case, 81 MSQ to Ishgard
weary umbra
nevermind im an idiot
halcyon glen
Plus two side stories that are mandatory
leaden ginkgo
uh where do i go for hull interior component matierals?
halcyon glen
Hull Interior Component is a beast tribe craft
So just equip the gloves and craft it afaik
leaden ginkgo
oh u get gloves?
leaden ginkgo
I dont see gloves lol
halcyon glen
Then you need to progress the quest further
finite topaz
Hey, can you mix and match the airship parts?
like say, Invincible 2 parts w Enterprise parts?
granite swan
@leaden ginkgo They give you the gloves and material for the hull if your doin Ixali
leaden ginkgo
i have to talk to quiirn
silver ruin
so after maint if i just punched in my pw in the launcher the green play button would just light up once maint was done right?
quasi widget
you'd need to navigate away and back to the main login
silver ruin
what, even on the launcher?
quasi widget
afaik it wont instantly update when the server is up
silver ruin
hm ok thanks
silver ruin
??????????????????where did you buy it? it wont charge you until you decide on a new name and it checks the server you're in to make sure its not taken

can you spam puppet's bunker if you only want the minion? or minion is counted towards the 3 loots you can get per week?
quasi widget
can you spam puppet's bunker if you only want the minion?
@zinc kelp yup
twilit arch
character rename service flags your character for rename, so when you log in you are prompted to change it
granite swan
@candid sigil It probably has you do it on Character Selection
twilit arch
yes
candid sigil
alright
zinc kelp
thanks @quasi widget
candid sigil
@twilit arch thx
leaden ginkgo
yeah when i give the compotents to the girl it doesnt let me craft it lmao
candid sigil
i didnt get the prompt
noble sage
A question of sheer curiosity, is the ffxiv housing market reddit against ToS?
granite swan
@leaden ginkgo you dont give her anything, you craft from the menu?
leaden ginkgo
oh i didnt know the gloves where there lmao
candid sigil
@twilit arch didnt give me a prompt
twilit arch
you're certain you selected the correct character
twilit arch
kewl, ya sometimes the system can be a bit slow
zinc orbitBOT
silver ruin
hey kael are you able to confirm if you punch in your pw in the launcher after maint that the green "play" button doesnt update right away after maint ends?
twilit arch
idk about the new version of the launcher, but i know for the old one you had to like click on "world" and then click back in order for the button to change
basically "refreshing" the launcher so to speak without having to completely close it
ripe hound
How do I reduce the size of SMN's pet?

PoTD before 51-60 is kinda a grab bag
frank frigate

granite swan
Once you get 51-60 its ezpz tho >.>
Just fought a wannabe General Grevius ... idk if im playing FFXIV or SWTOR >.>
leaden ginkgo
@granite swan do the black tribe quest change depending on the class u had equiped?
granite swan
No idea, ive only done a single Ixali on Armorer
I think they are randomized each day tho, maybe?
nova umbra
did they remove carboncoat and stuff from auriana in mor dhona?
I don't see her selling it anymore :x
granite swan
If its the material to augment stuff, ya everything is pre-augmented except the final stuff
nova umbra
so there's no way to get them anymore to augment my old gear? o.o
granite swan
I think you augment it via Calamity Salvager for like 100 poetics each?
nova umbra
ooh ok, let me check
drifting mauve
Hello, i have a problem i said ingame that i use my gf account when whes "not here" and then she said while she's in bathroom, do you think it can be ban for account sharing ? cuz 2 guys said that they're gonna report me
nova umbra
lol
granite swan
These NPCs totally have Light Sabers ...
drifting mauve
they said its account sharing, what is against tos
scarlet sandal
They sound like a couple Karen's
nova umbra
i mean yeah technically, but I doubt you'll get banned for playing for your GF while she's in the bathroom lol
drifting mauve
but i said in the chat that i don't know the password of my gf
scarlet sandal
i hope you remember the pass word so u can have a gf agian
warped nest
The GM will probably ask those two morons to move on
scarlet sandal
In general in the future though it's better to just not say anything about that
twilit arch
unfortunately, no there's no way to augment ironworks. for some reason its not augmentable on the calamity salvagers @nova umbra
warped nest
Also, why are you telling random people online how you use a service
drifting mauve
cuz they were annoying me actually, i use it in eureka but i can't play 100% on the 2 accounts so my gf account is kinda half afk and they said thats a bot
scarlet sandal
In public chat and with any stranger around it's better to play it safe and never mention anything of the sort and just play it safe
Then block them
warped nest
/\
drifting mauve
well i'd like but its too late, they said "we have all the pieces to ban you" "you'll see"
scarlet sandal
Also whenever I do bard I also make sure it's in a private place like a locked house or something
warped nest
"my gf is taking a dump, and she make me play for her a lil bit"
scarlet sandal
I mean I'm sure strangers don't want to hear me jamming but also just in case anybody feels like reporting
scarlet sandal
You're unlikely to get banned from this
Just like as I said don't mention it to strangers
jade quartz
You may get a GM talking to you at most lol
drifting mauve
yeah but i just hope they're not gonna ban without knowing the truth, i dont care about my account but my gf account would be terrible for her
warped nest
What Lyon said
jade quartz
They aren’t going to get you banned
noble sage
I saw they're adding a ton of new plots for 5.35, how fast do you guys reckon they will fill?
jade quartz
And it’s rather laughable that they thought they “had the tools to ban you”.
scarlet sandal
Like hungry hounds on a Black Friday
jade quartz
Within five minutes
warped nest
If anything
jade quartz
Everywhere will be full
warped nest
They are more likely to get a warning
jade quartz
Except maybe a handful of goblets
warped nest
Because they are technically harassing you
jade quartz
^
drifting mauve
well they didnt said " we're gonna ban you" but in other words to say it, "i dont say anything else to you, you will see"
noble sage
god maybe I should get a solid state drive just for this 👀
jade quartz
Most likely case is gms deem it not worth their time and discard the ticket
drifting mauve
I really hope
nova umbra
yeah those housing plots will disappear in a blink of an eye
leaden ginkgo
yeah beast tribe only gives exp for bsm ?? or does the class need be certain level first??
noble sage
I know im definitely going for a goblet plot, so maybe i'll get lucky
warped nest
If you are doing HW zone beady tribe, you should be using class at HW level (50-60)
granite swan
@leaden ginkgo Its probly whatever class you took the quest on, thats how it is for ShB Beasttribes atleast
jade quartz
@leaden ginkgo the class must be at level to actually do the quest
warped nest
You cannot use a lvl 50-60 beast tribe to level a lvl 5 crafter
granite swan
Hes doin Ixali
warped nest
Same deal
granite swan
They need to add a portal onto the flagship in the final hw zone ... so tired of going back and forth
drifting mauve
ty anyway for replying to me i'll see that in few days if my gf account is safe
vestal needle
is the monster hunter raid still here?
raw solstice
it's a trial, and it's permanent
granite swan
You get it in Kugane
Wow thats depressing, get into a dungeon and "Are you here to help us, o or hunt us?"
scarlet sandal
Will my trusts report me not doing any damage in just watching them kill mobs
granite swan
@scarlet sandal its just gonna take an eternity to get through the dungeon
raven sage
They stack
leaden ginkgo
On scale of 1-10, how important is it to read every dialogue to understand the story?
granite swan
@scarlet sandal I doubt you can AFK the bosses
granite swan
or atleast dodge the orange stuff ;p
leaden ginkgo
are u all sure beast tribes gives quest for miners
granite swan
Ixali is for Crafters
granite swan
oh does it?
raven sage
Yeah they're real bad quests but they exist
leaden ginkgo
is it random>?????
raven sage
Which tribe?
radiant sierra
would someone on coeurl be willing to party up me and my friends? novice network is ignoring us
twilit arch
the ixali dailies that require gatherers aren't really...for them
radiant sierra
we're at camp drybone
granite swan
@radiant sierra You could goto one of the main hubs and ask there, might be quicker
leaden ginkgo
so whos good for gathers?
twilit arch
they just require atleast a lvl 1 of that gatherer to gather specific items to exchange for the item you need
namazu and qitari
raven sage
I said the namazu and qitari
radiant sierra
@granite swan fair
twilit arch
namazu being 60-70, qitari 70-80
raven sage
Yeah there's nothing any lower than that
twilit arch
below that, have to make use of leves/collectables/diadem (if you have restoration unlocked)
raven sage
All you've got are leves and ishgard restoration
leaden ginkgo
nope
ishgard
is gonna use that
im using ishgard to 80 lmao
fk beast tribews for gathering ty though
raven sage
I mean it's a strategy
granite swan
Anything stick out on GC to buy to burn some seals? ive got more glamour prisms then ill ever need and not sure what else to buy lol
twilit arch
could always just sell excess prisms
leaden ginkgo
easy cordials to gather more maybe
twilit arch
venture tokens if you're regularly sending out retainers, also look at crafting materials (namely coke) see if they're selling well
granite swan
Ah i always forget retainers cause i never figured out what to do with it lol

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/it5pc2/unable_to_download_patch_files/
can anyone help with this? I've tried most solutions I've seen on the internet
remote lintel
did you update internet explorer
tacit ravine
yep, and changed the settings
halcyon glen
@ripe hound the max level foods afaik are just “what stats do you want in what order” and trust me it’s worth it to just buy the best one for your class. Odds are it’s either Sausage and Saurkraut, Herring Pie, or Stuffed Highland Cabbage.
tacit ravine
@remote lintel tbh it might just be my router at this point if nothing decides to work
ripe hound
Yeah, I was thinking about cheaper foods. Something that costs around 500 each
leaden ginkgo
Does anyone know if with the new plots coming out all players will be able to just buy one? Or are there the same restrictions for first time buyers as normally, with them having to first get a house via placard?
ripe hound
Or maybe 2000 gil per 30m is already cheap enough?
remote lintel
boiled eggs are 5 gil
halcyon glen
That don’t help prog
remote lintel
oh
ripe hound
Yeah I guess I should just pay the price
remote lintel
im illiterate
ripe hound
I was thinking if stuff will be a lot cheaper if it's just one tier below the best foods
twilit arch
the new wards are going to function the same as previous releases in that you have to visit the placard to buy the plot
jade quartz
New plots should be open for purchase for all on release
halcyon glen
One tier below is unfortunately a solid chunk of stat loss
remote lintel
best to just buy the bis raid food
faint flare
You Always by from the placard
remote lintel
or level culinarian and make it yourself
ripe hound
It's recommended to just buy the best foods even for random PF prog and farming?
remote lintel
its the best for your stats

faint flare
Ultimates

Ultimate is harder than Savage by a few orders of magnitude.
Clearing an ultimate fight usually takes over 100 hours of prog as a static

how should I juggle with BLM's MP management? Go to Ice stance and wait for 10,000 MP and back to fire, or I should go fire before MP is recovered excessively (like change to fire at 8,600. One more tick and it reaches 10, wasting some MP recovery amount)
faint flare
Get full mana before swapping
Otherwise you'll lose fire casts
With 3 stacks of Ice, you'll be full mana after 2 ticks
So by the time you've applied thunder and put up B4, you'll be capped

evening all - can someone take a swing at this Q - if im looking at a piece of gear and i hit ctrl - it shows an increased set of stats and an icon kinda like a swirl anyone know what that is? if been looking online for a good 20 min

But dont let the proc fall off
If you use it immediately then you reduce the potency of the previous Thunder cast that put the initial dot up

Relic weapons can't be put into the glamour dresser right? You can only put the replicas in?

what does it cost to get?
faint flare
A few gil
deft quiver
oh ok
plain python
does relic weapon's replica render weapon quest series useless for glamoring? Or they are different things?
faint flare
The replicas are for getting previous stages of the relic for glamour
You need to progress the quest past a certain point to even buy replicas

need to find an available plot first, then you go to the placard and click, and click, and pray, and click..
you can see the wards from aetherytes in the main cities (uldah/gridania/limsa) and thus see if there's any available housing there that way.. you gotta click through each ward/sub-ward though

if you have about 600
go grab an augmented ironworks weapon for yourself
and continue the story
round whale
like is there any specific progression path I can follow?
little swift
not really a need to
round whale
or do I just continue the story till I finish all 3 ex
round whale
MSQ as in till shadowbringers?
little swift
yes
round whale
i see
little swift
if you have spare poetics
you can grab augmented ironworks pieces at 50
augmented shire at 60
and augmented scaevan at 70
round whale
why does it say I have 2000/2000 peotics
little swift
those will last you to 55/65/75 respectively
round whale
can i increase the cap or spend it ?
little swift
then you have 2k to spend
you have to spend it won't go over that
you can only hold 2k at a time

is there another way than the npc to queue up for potd so i can do fates on another map while waiting?
little swift
nope
round whale
ooh shd I go for those anima weapons?
noble current
round whale
cuz im a new player but I'm pretty keen on investing for a sword since I wanna play paladin/sam

Once you queue up, you can leave the area
round whale
are relic weapons worth getting?
soft sentinel
Aside from dungeons and raids XIV content is mostly single player?
faint flare
Old relic weapons are purely glamour
They're way too grindy to be actually functional
round whale
i dont think i can trade poetics for sam weapons tho
faint flare
You can
potent lava
how would one test for lag/latency? The server that Im on thats usually "poor" is "good" today but I dont beleive that
faint flare
Same place as the other weapons
round whale
how
faint flare
Aurina
round whale
might wanna try to work my way to holding a shiny weapon
faint flare
Or people in the main cities
Relic weapons are highly advised to be done at cap
They're VERY VERY grinfy
Books will kill your soul
round whale
sry u might have to drop me a guide/link cuz I'm like fresh graduated from AAR
oh is it
ok then I guess I could settle for something else
faint flare
Go to the sundry splendor people in the main cities
They sell poetic gear
Along with aurina and aelina in mor dhona

can poetics get lvl 80 gear?
little swift
nope
faint flare
No
round whale
:c
faint flare
Different currency
little swift
poetics is for old endgame gear
round whale
80 gear isnt too grindy right?
little swift
its not grindy at all
faint flare
Nothing is really grindy...except relics
round whale
so i assume i just buy grade 3 thanalan?
faint flare
Not if you want gear
round whale
i could do with some GIL right now
leaden ginkgo
Hello !
So...i wanna if it’s possible to make a random alliance through duty finder
faint flare
Yes

Or if there are other ways of recruiting
leaden ginkgo
I did it yesterday and I couldn’t get the estimated players after 30mins passing
faint flare
For which
leaden ginkgo
Labyrinth of the Ancients
leaden ginkgo
Oh okay then
leaden ginkgo
Yeah fair enough
Im currently on free trial but i’ll buy the game after hitting 60
faint flare
Its a emote brought via ishgard restoration scrips
Or buy off market board
Named something like Something Wallflower
round whale
wait u are given a relic 80 weapon when u complete SB?
finite topaz
wait u are given a relic 80 weapon when u complete SB?
@round whale no, you must do Ivallice questline, which is lvl 70 alliance raids
round whale
err
so that goes back to my qns of what do i do with 2k poetics
cuz I just found out that they expire
finite topaz
nah they dont expire
they just dont cap
To unlock lvl 80 relics you must:
Complete Ivallice questline
Complete ShB main scenario (I think the main scenario refers to patch 5.0, may be wrong)
Head to Kugane to accept the quest
@round whale spend some in Scaevan gear from one of the random vendors, and sell it for gil or Grand company seals
round whale
can i trade it in for GIL tho?
young fjord
Poetics don't expire
You can trade them indirectly for gil
You can buy items such as dispelling arrow for example, which you can sell on market
keen fable
what do tanks use? fending or slaying?
young fjord
fending
keen fable
thank you
Is there a good way to make gil outside of crafting? I'm down to literally 1k gold from ishgardian crafting two up to 60 today
young fjord
Sell materia
Like making gil in this game is not difficult
YOu get gil for pretty much anything you do
The only difference is how fast you want to get it and what you are spending it on
fiery urchin
Anyone willing to sign my FC foundation form in Excalibur (Primal)? I can give you some gil in return and you can leave right after! Just missing one person.

vital ruin
Can someone explain limitbreak
Should a tank use it or dps
little swift
limit break is a shared resource for your party
at 4 members you'll have 1 bar regularly to charge up
and 2 inside boss fights
at 8 members in a party it goes up to 3 bars
usually a dps will use it
little swift
for dps melees will do a big single target nuke
and ranged/casters will do an aoe
ranged will do a line aoe
and casters a circle aoe
vital ruin
I c
little swift
so in trials generally a melee will limit break to damage the boss a chunk
but in dungeons it can be used by ranged to nuke down a large trash pull
vital ruin
Ig I won't use it
Cos I usually run tank/healer in pve
vital ruin
I c
little swift
and tank lb is used in a couple of fights
vital ruin
Anyone can use right
little swift
only as 3 bars
its a shared resource
whoever presses it uses it for the group
tank lb is just damage mitigation for the party
3bars being the most effective
old hollow
Hello, I just wanted to ask a question. I'm newer to the game and I was in a duty in Toto-rak. I had a DRK who kept spinning around the mobs, and since I play PUG, I asked them if they could hold the mobs still so I could get my positionals in and get more damage in that way. However, they didn't. Am I expected to still be able to get positionals in despite the enemies going 360 all the time?
little swift
if no one uses it you can always suggest for someone to use it
vital ruin
I c
little swift
or use it yourself 
agile laurel
people are generally guilty of it being saved for best or used as an 'anime finisher'
faint flare
You shouldny worry about positionals on trash mobs are you should be aoeing them down with any aoes you have
vital ruin
I don't even see any anime finishers
little swift
@old hollow try your best to do positionals, later as a monk you'll have access to the actions true north and riddle of earth which will make it easier to hit them
agile laurel
@old hollow There is a technique of spinning mobs around to never get hit, it's very stupid and hard to do and not worth it, so they were being a moron and it sounds like you were fine
faint flare
You'll be getting more aoes as you go
little swift
but in trash pulls positionals will be tougher
@tulip plover use hq materials to bring up the starting quality
use inner quiet and build stacks
old hollow
I didn't have access to an AOE skill yet so it just felt so miserable. They spun around the bosses too 
little swift
yeah many people can be new and not know that doing that isn't effective
agile laurel
yeah that sounds like a 'hur dur spin to not get autoed' idiot
tulip plover
Where can i go buy hq ingredients in bulk
little swift
I don't even see any anime finishers
@vital ruin the limit break skill isn't exactly made clear to new players.
old hollow
Alright, thank you. I'm glad the fault wasn't on me >.>
little swift
for bosses though, do your best to hit them
it'll be hard in trash pulls but you'll get aoe soon too
old hollow
ill get there soon enough 
man that took me so much longer
mild ermine
and then switch over to get 4th stack?
faint flare
Yes
mild ermine
Okay makes sense.
faint flare
Get 3 stacks with fire then swap just before getting the 4th
mild ermine
I'm assuming the grease lightning stacks + speed allows for more damage in the long run
faint flare
Yes
warped nest
Exactly
mild ermine
Okay cool o:
faint flare
You have the same damage buff
mild ermine
Makes sense
warped nest
I want to put in a reminder that Monk is getting a overhaul in the upcoming 5.4 patch
So don't get too comfy with what you know now
mild ermine
Understandable. I mean I still would want to know the abilities for now.
Monk is starting to grow on me.
warped nest
the core concept should be the same, probably, but how it is played with will probably changed...probably
mild ermine
Though not being able to use tornado kick is such a bummer ..
since it looks so cool
warped nest
Yeah, that's some of the few things players talked about
fleet moth
Since that ninja guide is down, does anyone know where else i can find some info on ninja? Googling just brings up outdated information T-T
keen fable
is there a way to sort gear in the armoury by non gear set items
mild ermine
Riddle of earth makes monk the easiest melee dps to play. For me anyway.
little swift
@fleet moth you can use the lodestone job actions guide to see all the actions
mild ermine
Since I feel like I don't have to sweat positionals at that point.
True north helps too.
fleet moth
it's not that, i have my ninja at 80, im just needing to tighten up my rotation, especially during my trick window @-@
little swift
at about 36:25 is an opener example
fleet moth
alright i'll check it out, thanks

How does observe work
little swift
basically you use some cp to do nothing
and fish for a condition change or what not
!action observe
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
tulip plover
Sooooooo
little swift
its useful
tulip plover
I still dont get it
little swift
and has some abilities chained to it later on
basically while you're crafting
each step will change the condition of your craft
remote lintel
instead of using an action you use no action
little swift
normal, poor, great, good
these affect how much quality is gained when you use a touch skill
so ideally you don't want to use a touch skill on poor conditions
tulip plover
So instead of using an action you will see what will happen
little swift
yeah
tulip plover
Huh ill have to use it
little swift
basically in place of a poor you might use observe to wait out the poor
tulip plover
Im just spammin my 99 leves
So do you go mining for material when lvling
All your doh
Cuz i just fo buy it to speed things up
little swift
its up to you
if you want to save money, get it yourself
if you want to save time
buy it
gloomy ice
Having your own gathering classes is slower because you have to level them up, of course. But it saves you a lot of money.
tulip plover
Hmmmm
gloomy ice
So it's a tradeoff, really. Time vs money.
tulip plover
Cuz i have about a mil to blow
little swift
a mil isn't a lot in the scheme of crafting
tulip plover
Well i guess when getting basic mats like coppper ore and low lvl equips
gloomy ice
A lot of mats can be just bought, yeah. It isn't until the 30s or so where you have to buy from MB or gather them yourself.
tulip plover
Ok making sure cuz im just powerleveling my doh to 39

@plain forge assuming you mean crafting class (profession isn’t a term in this game). All crafting classes except culinarian are required to make sets of samurai gear.
jade quartz
Katana are made by blacksmiths
Body gear is made variously by armorer, leatherworker and weaver
Accessories are made variously by carpenter, leatherworker and goldsmith
Alchemist makes various intermediate craft materials for all sorts of things.
granite swan
Yeah cause a piece of armor might need leather from a leatherworker or cloth from weaver, they all kinda tie in together

Hello !
I wanna ask where you can get the neo-ishgardian gear set ?
And is it true it’s the highest current gear set in the game ?

Came across a sightseeing log, but /lookout or /pray didn't work. Anyone got a solution? I did my research, and there are no time or weather requirements.
little swift
is this the one in coerthas?
glad comet
Yeah, Western Highlands
slate arrow
@leaden ginkgo the highest sets currently are Augmented Crystarium and Eden's Verse Savage gear, with Neo Ishgard being the fastest to being "savage ready" at 480, also augmentable to 490 with a small sum of Phantasmagoria
little swift
i say common but only sit is used more than once out of those iirc
leaden ginkgo
Oh...i see then
slate arrow
Also, you either craft or buy Neo Ishgard
And don't buy NQ since the stats for those gear pieces are significantly lower
granite swan
Playing different roles in dungeons is a mixed bag. Playing as a DPS all is well, playing as a healer, im sitting here like "Wheres all the dps? this stuff is dieing to slow" Lol
barren flax
BiS crafting tools would be the crafted 490 primary + secondary tool for now right? otherwise it's dragonsung + 490 secondary?
slate arrow
there's no such thing as crafter BiS since BiS means nothing without melds
but yes, current crafter gear required Aesthete's gear + main and off hand
warped nest
Pentameld Aesthete is BiS
jade quartz
Dragonsung mainhand is perfectly fine for practical purposes though.
warped nest
The only concern is what melds you want to do
left moth
490 is best equipment for crafting but the bestpart is the overmeld, not the items themselves
warped nest
What Lyon said
Pentamelded Aesthete is good for
A doing 0-HQ craft, no HQ materials but you can finish craft with HQ result
B no worry about gearing for 12 months as Pentamelded Aesthete will last you into lvl 90 (the next expansion)
slate arrow
The former will save you money in the long run. Especially if you have gatherers leveled, since you can just gather on volume rather than quality.

Make It Rain is overdue and there's no other time to put it before 3.4

It's not an even like the others though, very few events last an entire patch.

Let's be honest, Make It Rain can be brought back anytime, it is not that picky with the time of the year, at least it is put in now

Why does the Forlorn Maiden mob randomly appear in some FATEs?
agile laurel
'If the Maiden is killed before the FATE is complete you will get the Twist of Fate buff for a 50% XP Bonus on your next FATE if the current FATE is completed. You will also receive the buff if the Maiden is already dead and you only contribute to the FATE after her death. The buff WILL be removed upon changing zones.'
rugged flicker
Is there an in-universe explanation behind her? 
agile laurel
'The only thing we don't know for sure is when/why the Maidens or the Forlorn will spawn, but so far we assume that it is completely random.'

no, its just a new game play mechanic introduced in stormblood

twilit arch
for fates
agile laurel
Additional q: while I get that spirits within restores MP, I also get that it's physical - thus, i'd assume getting it under FoF is vastly more preferable to using it when mp isn't full?
due to pld rotation overcapping mp towards the end

you'll be more or less able to get one inside FoF and another out of it

Unsynced, party finder ad if you’re not level 80
Even at level 80 might be more convenient with a party of two or four people
dapper maple
Because I am a low life noob in this game lol I'm only level 58 and half way though heavensward
dapper maple
Yes
agile laurel
however, you only need a single geared level 80 to solo ARR ex trials unsynced
dapper maple
With a party
jade quartz
Make a party finder for an EX primal that says “pony farm unsync”
agile laurel
so one person besides yourself would be enogh

There are six ponies in ARR, seven birds in HW

so our tank dc'd but is still techically here; is this the grace period where he can return? we he get autokicked after a while or do we have to do it
