oak smelt
so after a certain HW quest the reward had choices of armour coffers.
one of them was the hellfire armour of fending and im playing a tank. but i already bought the augmented set from rowena. so i picked a coffer for a class i plan to level later.
did i do the right thing?
faint flare
Sure

Is this glamour only from O12s? Or is there another one that looks exactly like it? https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Omega_Gambison_of_Fending
alpine shadow
start a pf for it, if you want me to join
obsidian patio
In terms of dyeable, only from O12S
knotty axle
Okay
calm phoenix
How did I manage to get Sohm Al before Dusk Vigil? I am told to queue up for Sohm Al but I am told Dusk Vigil is first. Why didn't I get that one?
obsidian patio
if you’re fine with non-dyeable you can do the normal mode version of the fight
Dusk Vigil is an optional dungeon
spare plinth
does it help save money and time by hiring retainers to gather dol stuff for crafting?
nova umbra
darn.. is O12s really hard? Will it be difficult finding people to join?
alpine shadow
you can do it unsynced
normal breach
dusk vigil gives you aether current so most people do it but its not mandatory
obsidian patio
There’s strats to make Hello World super easy, can try finding a video or two of it online.

Can I go unsynced even though i havent done the trial yet?

Its a blue quest for a aether current
obsidian patio
Not sure if it’s near the Aetheryte or the camp that’s near the middle of the zone
faint flare
Should be at the camp iirc
alpine shadow
Ah, no i was talking about the o12s

gusty storm
so in the alt leveling guide, when he writes "DPS keep following this" under day 3, does he mean follow the day 3 instructions or keep following day 2's?
robust notch
Meh, don't read too much into it
TL;DR is to do your daily roulettes and on-level dungeons
That's pretty much it
brittle comet
does Mogstation support Canadian dollars or should i figure out where to get it regionally priced
..or do they not bother adjusting anyway
gusty storm
yea prob

i already suffered through downloading ffxiv off steam lmao

do gatherers share the same GP? like if i gather something on my miner and then gatehr something immediately on my botanists will my botanist have full GP or will it have the same amount that my miner does?
slate arrow
GP is shared between all of your gatherers yes
normal breach
Like if i mine and im 200/500 GP for miner if i swap to bot am i also 200/500 or 500/500

@alpine shadow tysm for helping me!!
leaden ginkgo
are there any fees/taxes when u trade gil?
or is it always 1:1
not marketboard btw
slate arrow
trading no
alpine shadow
they should tax all money transfers by 30%, in and out from guild chest and trading
so, 30% in, then 30% out
ripe hound
Also remember to tax transactions between players and retainers!
granite swan
90% tax on everything, repairs, trades, vendors
calm phoenix
How TF do I find Nophica's Altar from the Churning Mists? The map does not tell me sh**. It just brings up a world map
faint flare
Thats at the conjuerers guild, where you talk to the Silent person to go in
You should have been there a few times
calm phoenix
No. It says that it is in Coerthis
faint flare
Its the part wherw you go back to grindina and ask Kana to come help
calm phoenix
You are right. No clue why the map did that the first time
faint flare
It shows the world map because Nopichas altar is technically not on the map
So it cant bring it up
Like normal
halcyon glen
Good thing Kan-E is like the best
granite swan
To bad all her siblings are annoying lil ****
calm phoenix
It showed Coerthis the first time and then the Shroud when I pulled it up again
leaden ginkgo
hey dumb question here, i recently bought a boost for my character and how do i get to the shadowbringers area
faint flare
Yeah the game just shows whatever when you try to have it show instanced areas like that
Do the story
Shadowbringers areas are locked by story
Like with everything else
granite swan
Level and Story boosts are seperate i think
ripe hound
Yeah everything is gated by MSQ
To be honest level boost is kind of useless because while you complete the MSQ you get exp to level a class anyway
granite swan
they arent useless for alt jobs

if trusts were as useful as pugs no one would ever go into DF for any shadowbringers dungeon
and ESPECIALLY not DPS

So they dont aoe

After roulettes, what is the fastest way to get around a thousand tomestones, before Heavensward? Is it just grinding dungeons slowly?
calm phoenix
Where can I find a Maelstrom hunting log guide for rank 2?
faint flare
Trusts are designed to clear dungeons on average 30mins
jade quartz
@calm phoenix the hunting log itself tells you where everything is. If you need more specificity, google.
halcyon glen
You have a few options! First time clears of new content at level cap awards tomestones, so you can clean up some level 50 content for faster than "just grind the same dungeon" usually goes. If you do mean to farm them however (possibly faster anyway), Alliance Raids are excellent for it @analog folio
calm phoenix
I understand that but someone linked me to rank one before with precise locations
jade quartz
Do a modicum of work for yourself man
halcyon glen

quasi spire
Which magic dps has the most consistent / least bursty damage output?
remote lintel
red mage
jade quartz
BLM I guess
granite swan
@calm phoenix http://dimensionaldeath.com/index.php?page=huntinglogs This one?
remote lintel
i counted fire phase as its burst
halcyon glen
Every caster has well defined "high damage" phases
faint flare
Well ita pretty constant
jade quartz
no way Cerberus
halcyon glen
BLMs have theirs on the most often
jade quartz
Fire phase is the majority of the rotation
halcyon glen
Red Mages the least
quasi spire
so it's more like BLM has 20% downtime?
faint flare
SMN gets theirs every minute, or 55s if rushing
jade quartz
SMN revolves around Bahamut and Phoenix
remote lintel
blm downtime is during ice phase
jade quartz
Ice phase is two gcds every uh 10 or so
Doesn’t qualify as meaningful burst/downtime
faint flare
Well 3-4 ish
jade quartz
It’s just the constant rotation
halcyon glen
I'd guess just from videos I've seen (not a BLM myself) they end up in ice phase about 30% of the time.
jade quartz
That’s like saying the a melee Combo starter is downtime and the combo finisher is burst
faint flare
Plus 1 if you count the actual b3
quasi spire
and which has the least tight rotation? all of them seem pretty strict looking outside in
jade quartz
RDM

Rdm
halcyon glen
RDM
faint flare
Its a priority system

not that similar

Thanks for all the help
gonna go level RDM and AST now to round out my collection of jobs
halcyon glen
Dancer for reference is: wait what order do i press the glowy buttons in again?
are no buttons glow? cry
quasi spire
yeah I feel like DNC could use some tuning next expansion to feel more rhythm game like
already halfway there
halcyon glen
it already does lmao
what, you just want a permanent 1s gcd with a random button glowing each time?
quasi spire
idk really, it sorta feels uncanny valley for me. maybe a proc based buff rotation to go with the damage procs?

@jade quartz thanks.
sturdy mason
What do you do if you need to apply glamour to weapons/offhands but your glamour plate is job-agnostic? Duplicate the plate per job? Or apply the glamour to the weapon manually? Or something else?
jade quartz
Glamour the weapon manually is simplest
jade quartz
You can
Huh
Just cast glam
With item in inventory
But it’s not like you’re going to have to change it often
halcyon glen
you do need to keep the item in your inventory though
and that couuuuld create clutter
oak ice
If the job you're using the plate on can't use the weapon, it will just ignore it when you switch to the plate
sturdy mason
Hmm, it only lets me pick item appearances that I have in my inventory, not glamours I stored in the dresser
halcyon glen
yes
jade quartz
Yes
storm stone
@jade quartz You're talking about this kind of people right, armes=weapons in french, it's in Gridania
storm stone
The weapon at the top of the list is for level 5
sturdy mason
So I have to pull it out of the dresser to apply glamour manually
jade quartz
He sells weathered shortsword
storm stone
Mmmh
jade quartz
It’s level 1
halcyon glen
You can actually within the dresser itself glamour an item
But if you want to do a manual overwrite not using a plate outside an inn, you need the item on hand'
sturdy mason
Yeah I just found that, it's nice, but I wanted to manually cast glamour to an item using an appearance from the dresser without being at the dresser. But alas, spaghetti code.
jade quartz
That’s not even spaghetti code
sturdy mason
It's arbitrarily complicated and useless, if nothing else
jade quartz
Anyway why do you need to change your weapon glam so often
sturdy mason
I'm leveling up
jade quartz
Once you apply the glam it’s there
sturdy mason
And when I upgrade, I don't want it to be ugly
jade quartz
Weapon still doesn’t change that often
halcyon glen
That's when you put the glam on a plate.
sturdy mason
It doesn't now that I"m past level 50, but anyway
jade quartz
Then make duplicate plates
halcyon glen
If you need to temporarily change a plate for a diff job while you're leveling or make a duplicate that's fine
you can always fix it later
sturdy mason
Oh that's a good point, wow why didn't I realize that
halcyon glen
Alternatively, you actually don't need to remake the whole plate
A new plate could have JUST the weapon on it
sturdy mason
OHHHHHHH
sly willow
ninja materia crit > dh> det?
halcyon glen
so plate 1 might be your Gunbreaker glamour with your Gunbreaker weapon, while plate 2 is just your Gladiator weapon/shield
jade quartz
Yeah blank slots on plates don’t remove glams that are already there
hexed shuttle
Is there a macro I can use to ensure that I don't waste any fire 3 procs as BLM? e.g. cast fire 3 -> stop casting -> cast fire 1 like you'd have in WoW?
jade quartz
They just do nothing to that slot
halcyon glen
To update your glam on Gladiator, use plate 1 then 2
1 will do the outfit but ignore the weapon because it's for the wrong job
and then you fix the weapon without messing the rest of the glam via plate 2
hexed shuttle
halcyon glen
yeah uh surprise
hexed shuttle
In that case, is it best to pause briefly after each fire 1 cast to see if I get a proc, or do I just mash fire 1 and cast fire 3 on the next available cast?
faint flare
No, keep the gcd rolling
hexed shuttle
faint flare
And pay attention to the flying text of the buffs you receive
Those usually pop up early
Plus when you get fire 4, you dont have to worry about overwriting firestarters
halcyon glen
The buff actually shows up before the Fire 1 cast finishes afaik, so you can usually reactively Fire 3 without losing a GCD or proc

Roleplay tag
midnight laurel
what do you think are the lowest apm jobs for each role? So far I think tanks: WAR, healers: WHM, ranged DPS: BLM. Ranged physical would be DNC? Not really sure since I don't know the job well. Melee would be DRG? I thought that but heard they have lots of double weaving. Maybe SAM instead? Not sure I'm not too familiar with the job. Reason I ask is I'm a bit tired of busy jobs, want to play the most slow in each role like WAR
onyx kiln
is there a way to have a button on your hotbar where you can turn on/off animations? i do prefer to have them of or at least only have mine on, but i feel that i could benefit as a tank more to have them turned on to see what the other party members are doing more clearly and plan around that
simple pine
you can look up average APMS for endgame content on FFLogs @midnight laurel , there is an overview for it
i can look it up later for you if you can't find it

"They have used the best part of us against us! The part where we want to do right!"

@ripe hound single weaving is fine sure, though double weaving isn't too much of a hassle either. Ruin 2 creates a pretty easygoing weave window
reef cove
how do i add a third bar i have 2 but i forgot how to add the bars
ripe hound
Yeah, it's just that after pressing Ruin 2, my brain will always be: "What do I do now?"
reef cove
for skills and other such stuff
ripe hound
And then if I press 2 oGCD I clip because I pressed them too slow
Or often times I can't remember what I want to do so I just keep Ruin 2ing
Like after Ruin II I just need time to decide what to do, so I keep spamming ruin 2 while trying to decide what 2 oGCD should I use

ripe hound
Yeah, I'm talented
raw solstice
if you're unsure then you should just broil until you know what you want to use
sharp spire
anybody here using logitech mice? the profile i made for ffxiv doesn't work. only the default button config works
raw solstice
you shouldn't really like, look for things to weave/double weave, but instead if you want/need to use an oGCD, then you use ruin 2 in order to weave them
ripe hound
Yeah, I always know what the first oGCD I need to use is. It's usually something I needed immediately to keep the tank alive.
I see
Yeah that makes a lot more sense
If there isn't anything to weave just don't double weave in that GCD
raw solstice
yeah pretty much
your main status should be keep dot up and broil spam. Then if you need to use an oGCD or two you ruin 2 -> weave them, then back to broil spam
ripe hound
Also Ruin II + Suck is always more damage than Broil right?
If you have spare Aetherflow
raw solstice
yeah if you have excess aetherflow, using energy drain is a good idea. Ruin 2 -> energy drain is good, or if you're using another instant (like applying biolysis) you can weave after that too (and that'd be preferable if possible of course so you don't have to downgrade a broil to a ruin 2)

I mean, the basic rotation in dungeons are just aoe aoe mitigation spank
celest bison
Will i guarantee to get a triple triad card drop doing a trial synced or is it low drop rng like unsynced?
granite swan
ppl need to learn before 70 dungeons >.<
faint flare
You learn how to tank with youe first few dungeons
leaden ginkgo
I was thinking when I hit 60 I start learning how to do it pro style
leaden ginkgo
the only thing that worries me is targeting for certain paladin powers
ripe hound
Yeah, pro style in dungeons is just aoe aoe mitigation spank but now you pull everything
faint flare
50 and onwards you can start wall pulling as people have most of their kit to handle it
leaden ginkgo
is aoe only used with multiple enemies? or is it also used ot generate hate
faint flare
Yes
ripe hound
All the advanced super damage rotation and openers are for single target enemies
faint flare
Multiple enemies
granite swan
You clearly havent run duty dungeons in awhile if you think ppl learn how to tank within the first few lol
faint flare
As its stronger than single target
Well stuff starts out basic and very slowly adds on
raven sage
@celest bison Card drops are always random
leaden ginkgo
I see, you get the aoe combo before 60? because I only have eclipse for now
ripe hound
I mean tanking is basically just you are a dps but you have to hit everyone
leaden ginkgo
well you unlock paladin at 30 right?
ripe hound
Yeah
faint flare
Yes, after doing slyph management msq as well
Which is around lv20ish
In the story
leaden ginkgo
oh the grand company mission which also unlocks mounts?
ripe hound
Insert "Back in my days you don't get a tank stance until lv 35, and we used Flash!"

soft flicker
cool cool
faint flare
It judges base on what you see
soft flicker
and, can i dye a glove thats glamoured?
ripe hound
What is Fashion report?
I thought it was like some random player made up stuff since like 3.0
faint flare
Yes if the glove is dyeable
soft flicker
like i need brown leather gloves, can i dye them while theyre glamoured?
i see i see
faint flare
Fashion report is a weekly thing in the saucer for MGP

ripe hound
It cost gil but yes
robust magnet

faint flare
Normal
soft flicker
and, sorry last question, can i wear my full armour or does it have to be ONLY the 4 items for the fashion report
faint flare
You need items in every slot

Otherwise you lose points

Can I contribute as a lv 22 LTW

Yes

If you don't want to Diadem you can also MB?

Gather mats in diadem > approve at the counter next to the entrance > craft and turn in
Yes

And do I need to make the stuff into Collectables? Or is just normal NQ HQ stuff fine?
faint flare
Its automatically a collectible
ripe hound

ripe hound
I increase collectiblity the same way I increase the HQ bar right?
faint flare
Yes

When I search Skybuilders' Yew Log it says no item found!?
On MB?
Is this normal?
obsidian patio
The phase 3 crafting materials starts with “Approved Grade 3”

I accidentally purchased some Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Switch
So I should start from Phase 3 right?

Yes

Yes

Yeah I might as well make something with the Grade 2 sticks
Is there a MB in the Ishgard restoration zone?

As you get more comfortable youll end up using more hotbars. Most people go from 3-10 hotbars

I come from guildwars, which i played like 5 years ago.
an i might be mixing up terms here, but i mean like leather works, botanist etc.
faint flare
Crafting and gathering is basically a different game and one big package
Ideally you do them all
As they need mats from different gatherers and different craftera
wide burrow
well looking at the time it will take to level them i would rather pour time into 1/2 and profit from them and help me gain from it. then a little on it all
ripe hound
Or you can just be like "haha Market Board go brrr"
And Spam gil
However you need crafters and gathers to make gil in the first place
wide burrow
I was just curious if there was a craft that would help me as a conjurer

Cannot make orchestrion auto-play music when I enter? It plays the default estate music and other quarters are not like that. I have it set to play and repeat but it is not? Does anybody know what the problem could be?
faint flare
The story and dungeons give you enough gear
ripe hound
Wait, can you always quit crafting to recover your mats?
faint flare
You need to set up the playlist for ir
obsidian patio
Only at the very first step is it 100%

hello everyone. reinstalled the game onto a new computer and copied over the previous installation just fine, however, the launcher still wants to redownload the whole game again. what is going on?
ripe hound
Also Ishgard Restoration does not give you gear right?
You still need to find crafter gear by yourself?
Wow this shit levels up so fast
glad comet
yes, it doesn't
ripe hound
Skybuilder Scripts can't be used to buy equipment right?
faint flare
No
ripe hound
It's mostly for cosmetics and other stuff
leaden ginkgo
if we kill the last boss of a dungeon and roll on the gear do i have to stay in the instance in order to get the gear if i already rolled
like do i have to stand around and wait til everyone rolls
raw solstice
you have to wait
leaden ginkgo
if u leave it takes u out of the draw>
ripe hound
For Specialist you can just pick 3 random crafters you like right?
raw solstice
yeah if you leave it's as if you never rolled on any pending loot
raw solstice
specialist gives a bit of extra stats and access to a few specialist only recipes. If you have specific need for either of those you can go that route, otherwise just whichever you like is fine. Can always change later on as needed, too

You really need to only touch a Fate to get credit

Its fine, slows LB generation which only matters in higher end content

By the time I get there it’s already over lol or it’s already and I’m not even halfway there yet.

In endgame content, double dancer specifically is pretty bleh because tech steps don’t stack

I still need to unlock that I think, i stopped playing when edens gate savagee opened

Does Ala Mhigan Earrings increase EXP gain as crafter?

Like should I use it if I'm just Ishgard Restoring?
obsidian patio
Only crafting stuff, in terms of crafters

Very few exp boost actually improve quest exp reward
Exp bonus usually just boost activity exp: killing enemies as dow/m, finish a recipe as crafter, gathered an item as gatherer

To defend the main tank when you’re offtank basically
surreal geyser
Would this channel be a bad place to ask for help with actual content in game? Or is there another channel for that?
jade quartz
Which is why it shares resources with Sheltron
Uh if it’s endgame then #endgame-lounge
Anything up until there, here is fine
sturdy mason
Is it boosting Rampart/Sentinel on myself or my target?
faint flare
On the target
surreal geyser
Nah, Hildy questline. Wife is about to do the Yojimbo fight. I was gonna ask if anyone would want to come along.
sturdy mason
So I watch if MT casts Sentinel (for example) then cast Intervention on him?
faint flare
If you have rampart/sheltron up, it boosts the intervention buff
sturdy mason
For TB I assume?
jade quartz
If you have rampart/sentinel currently active then your intervention on your target is stronger
surreal geyser
Queue time was like 30 minutes which is just so long for such easy content
jade quartz
For tbs primarily yeah
sturdy mason
So I cast Rampart on myself, then cast Intervention on the MT, and he gets 50% mit?

Can anyone explain how spiritbonding works now?
sturdy mason
Ah ok makes sense
Sheltron is when I'm MT, Intervention is when I'm OT (to protect the MT)
jade quartz
👍
glad comet
@hidden axle spiritbonding is affinity with gear
glad comet
when its 100% you can extract a free materia off of it
jade quartz
@hidden axle you gain spirit bond the same as before
glad comet
in return, your spirit bond drops down to 1%
jade quartz
Just now extracting materia from fully spiritbound gear doesn’t destroy the gear
hidden axle
what is the fastest way to get to 100%?
jade quartz
Just resets the gauge
glad comet
ex trials
jade quartz
Doing level-relevant content to the gear
faint flare
jade quartz
It will fill naturally from regular playing
glad comet
most recent content will yield the most spirit bond

There’s also a UI element on your screen which says what your current MSQ is
And you can click on it to find where it is
wooden ginkgo
okay tysm

The MSQ is basically the main focus of the game
There are other things you should be doing too
Most importantly your class quests which are available every five levels at your class guild (i.e. lancers’ guild or whatever your class is)
And also blue plus sign quests 
which unlock content and features
