[warped nest]

No

Adventurer in Need are not the bonus I mentioned

You can queue roulette with a DPS even when the roulette is giving it Adventurer in Need (Healer) bonus

[flat ridge]

alright then, so I stick to dungeons as anything but DPS.

[warped nest]

Please

[flat ridge]

is the roulette bonus once per class/character/or account?

[warped nest]

Let me finish what I was saying with potd

Per character

[flat ridge]

(i guess that would actually be a reason to have multiple characters with different jobs then?)

[warped nest]

Continuation on potd
However, there are two things to take note of for POTD/HOH

• potd/hoh is not as good as dungeons in terms of exp/minute
• wiping in potd/hoh gives no exp at all

These are the risk you need to consider when doing potd/hoh.

That's not it

[outer plank]

theres not really a reason to it though @flat ridge cause the reward for all the effort is lesser then just leveling up your doh/l and earning gil that way

[warped nest]

Take note that the game give out hidden bonus when you are leveling others combat job in the same character.

Say your highest combat job is a lvl 23 Gladiator, then any other combat job (a lvl 14 Marauder) will gain a exp buff.

If your marauder becomes your highest combat job at lvl 27, now your lvl 23 Gladiator will get exp buff.

No, you don't need to level 2 jobs to keep the bonus active

[flat ridge]

Also... i made my account on twintania over a year ago... back then i got a bunch of bonuses for my exp (+100% for multiple months.. if i remember correctly...?)

Is it better to continue my level 58/30/30/30/30/30/30 character here, or should i start a new one for a new bonus?

[gusty pasture]

is The Burn really that difficult?

I had a healer die 4 times in which resulted to the group just voting Abandon

[warped nest]

@gusty pasture the last boss can be

[gusty pasture]

yeah that last boss

[warped nest]

Very easy to snowball into a wipe

[flat ridge]

i plan on getting all/almost all characters to the max level. So i will be grinding a lot

[gusty pasture]

the healer keeps eating aoe and just wont stop casting when the proximity attack happens

first time I ever had to vote an abandon, and first time I've seen one

at this point I don't ever want to do that dungeon ever again even if it's a big-ass ffiv reference which I really like 😦

what a sour experience

[warped nest]

@gusty pasture
Tips:

• tank want to stay very close to a wall to reduce the area covered by the boss breath attack
• Dps and healer should stack or stay close to bait the 8-direction ice blast
• run in opposite circle to find the hidden boss line AOE during the foggy part, and jump up and down near the edge if you found it

[granite swan]

How important are the Gatherer Quests to do when just leveling it instead of trying to get things?

[outer plank]

@gusty pasture its not, healer is drunk.

[flat ridge]

how much does projecting clothes cost? can i just do it with every common armor?

[outer plank]

actually the burn was slightly more challenging then the typical dungeon for the last boss

but not much if you just open your eyes and do the mechanics

[analog gate]

!faq glamour

[zinc orbit]

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

[warped nest]

If you are not using it to ask or answer question

Then do it in #kupo-bot-spam

[gusty pasture]

I cleared the burn last night and I found it easy just juggling around the aoes

[analog gate]

viciouspink is asking about glamour no?

[gusty pasture]

first time I had a group whine and quit

[warped nest]

Oh, nvm, apologies

My bad, Ulti

[gusty pasture]

they even attack it when it's on mist form

[analog gate]

np

[flat ridge]

those prisms are probably too expensive to use it on random stuff

[granite swan]

they are cheap, they are only 200 gc seals or you can craft em, think they are fairly cheap on Market Board also

[flat ridge]

thank you very much for all the help guys

[vital ruin]

I got the achievement dungeon master but can't find the title

[leaden ginkgo]

How hard is The Minstrel's Ballad: Ultima's Bane? Can I queue into it via Duty Finder without issues?

[outer plank]

@leaden ginkgo you wont find anyone doing it. its very easy

put it in pf

since you wont find anyone actually queueing for it

make sure its unsynced

[vital ruin]

Ya I had to do it by pf too

[leaden ginkgo]

why unsynced?

[vital ruin]

Cos lv 80s can destroy it

[flat ridge]

is it possible to change server-region eventually? going from EU to JP servers

[granite swan]

How exactly does Ishgard Restoration XP work? Turn in said it gave like 230k xp, yet i somehow got 1.8m xp? Even with 100% bonus, that woulda been 460k no?

[outer plank]

because people want to zoom through it for whats it called, the zhole journal thing @leaden ginkgo

theres no real reason to actually do it

the equipment is 5 years old after all

vendor gear from ishgard beats it by far

[vital ruin]

Why do people do ishgardian restoration like what do you get

[leaden ginkgo]

so level 80s do it just to finish the quest? @outer plank

[granite swan]

@vital ruin super quick way to level crafting

[young fjord]

@flat ridge Yes, you can play on EU servers and transfer to JP servers. Get it in EU, then your account region is EU, but that’s only for payment and expansions; you can play on any server in any server region.

[outer plank]

pretty much. ultima ballad was back from when the cap was lv 50

[vital ruin]

Ooh I do need to level up Crafters

[outer plank]

so any lv 80 can just walk over it alone

[young fjord]

Yes

[outer plank]

if your 80 yourselof

you can stream roll it

[flat ridge]

i mean transfering characters from EU to JP

[leaden ginkgo]

Then I'll just wait until I hit 80

[outer plank]

you dont even have to be 80 to steam roll it, just being lv 60 in 270 ilv gear or above is well then enough

[young fjord]

You should be able via a character transfer buy

[outer plank]

when i say its old

its really old fight

[obsidian patio]

Ultima in particular is hard to solo at low levels, since the orbs colliding, along with the damage over time from the tank swap stacks do a lot of damage

[young fjord]

@flat ridge

[obsidian patio]

Orbs touching is like 40-50k damage and the DoT is like 15-16k and basically never wears off

[flat ridge]

@young fjord yeah, i know you can switch worlds. i just wasnt sure if different server-farm was also fine

[young fjord]

To my knowledge nothing is stopping you from transfer between datacentre

[outer plank]

it just cost money right?

25$

[young fjord]

Yes, not sure about region price

Should say in checkout

I know it used to be if you transfer from congested world to a prefferd world it would be free

Don't know if they still do that

[tidal yarrow]

can i trade dyes bought at the mogstation?

[young fjord]

No

The way to trade that would be to apply it to a item, then trade the new color item with someone

But the pot of dye itself you can't trade

If you are thinking about buying Gil, don't do that. You don't need gil for anything and if you go to your local limsa dealer they will send you the stuff while also keylogging you in the process. Also that Gil gets marked so if you have bought gil from a account which got banned for gil selling you are prone to also get banned

Would not recommend

[tidal yarrow]

oh wow

thanks! but just your "no" was enough ahah

[hexed shuttle]

Can you make a mouseover macro for aetherial manipulation?

[outer plank]

yes

that what i imagine most people use for aetherial

some just soft target a safe person

[young fjord]

/ac "Aetherial Manipulation" <mo>
/ac "Aetherial Manipulation" <t>
/ac "Aetherial Manipulation <me>
/micon "Aetherial Manipulation"

I think

[plain python]

can you solo longstop normal? The 3rd boss can trap you in the bubble.

[young fjord]

Yes

If unsync you will kill boss before he use bubble

Even if you get hit by it, you have so much health that it will expire before even doing 10% of your total health

[elder sinew]

So if you wear all +2 Elemental gear & Osode/Vermi chest, the only thing worth putting materia on is the Chestpiece since the other +2 gear is above ilvl 300?

[plain python]

can my lv60 i130 WHM solo Vigil Stone normal? Or maybe higher lv items?

[twilit arch]

you can very easily solo that

[dapper oyster]

alright this is quite weird

[young fjord]

iLvl 130 for a lvl 60 is kinda oof tho

[celest bison]

Oh i forgot to ask about Dance Partner, which DPS should i partner up with?

[twilit arch]

assuming you have assize, it should delete most mobs quite easily

[dapper oyster]

im in praetorium atm and still watching curscene, somehow someone managed to defeat nero when im still in cutscene

[oak ice]

The one who does the most damage

[dapper oyster]

how @@

[young fjord]

In most cases, the Samurai

He also have fast attack speed which help build meter

[plain python]

well I get stuck with MSQ so XD

[celest bison]

I see that they sometimes partner with NIN

[oak ice]

If you partner someone, and glance at the aggro meter and he's number 8, switch

[celest bison]

And DRG too

[twilit arch]

if they're partnering with the nin or drg then either they're better geared than the sam

and doing more dmg

or they're friends

[celest bison]

Hmm

[twilit arch]

SAM may be the first choice but that doesn't mean its always the correct choice

[agile laurel]

yeah i will generally go with the priority for one pack, ascertain whether the 'high priority' dps that I partnered with is eating paste or not

[twilit arch]

like platt said, you wanna partner with the dps who's doing the most dmg

[agile laurel]

and then just switch

[celest bison]

From my experience as NIN, i often get partnered up all the way from start to end

[twilit arch]

can give everyone's gear a quick glance to see who's got pretty good gear

[celest bison]

So i was wondering about choice of partner

[agile laurel]

high personal damage + high apm

a mix of the two finds the priority

[celest bison]

O interesting

[agile laurel]

dnc wants apm friends at later levels also to get more gauge

[young fjord]

Sam, Nin, Mnk all got fast attack speed and uses weaponskills = build meter for the dancer, DRG is lower on list becuase it does not have a attackspeed buff like the others.

What place SAM over the other two with attackspeed is thier damage, as a permament 5% damage to a SAM is more than it is to a monk/nin (asumeing the player is not trash)

[celest bison]

Sorry but whats apm again?

[agile laurel]

actions per minute

[young fjord]

Actions per Minute

[agile laurel]

speed

[celest bison]

Im dumb

I see

Alright then

[uncut pendant]

does the mount drop if you do arr ex unsynced?

[granite swan]

it can, yeah

[uncut pendant]

thanks

[outer plank]

@dapper oyster they logged out and logged back in

the cutscene is that long that people just do that

because its considerably more faster

people just want there poetics man

[plain python]

is ultima weapon's bane fight hard to do with a synced party?

[tame plinth]

no

[dapper oyster]

@dapper oyster they logged out and logged back in
@outer plank yeah someone in the party just told me that...

[plain python]

is that ban-able?

[twilit arch]

technically, yeah it is

[tame plinth]

they should just fix those duties

[oak ice]

They changed it for Stormblood because new people who wanted to watch the literal climax of ARR just got long-ass cutscenes because everyone else skipped and blazed through it

[outer plank]

they should of just revamped the dungeon

[oak ice]

To compensate, they upped the exp gain and poetics

[outer plank]

honestly a cutscene every 5 steps

is really fucking bad

they had the chance to when going over the story to

but regardless

they learned there lesson

[uncut pendant]

for titania ex chain, is it generally dps north ht south or other way around?

[outer plank]

not to do that ever again

[worn scaffold]

I completed my first savage raid and someone happened to upload to fflogs. I have purple on my name but I want to know how much percentage it was https://www.fflogs.com/reports/J9pYPNkHAwqvrWfL/

where do i find the percent at?

[oak ice]

We always did ht north, but it shouldn't matter much since the boss will still follow the tank

[forest laurel]

damage done

[agile laurel]

yeah ht north everyone else south

commonly

[uncut pendant]

ok got it thnx

[agile laurel]

i tended to do ht northwest d southeast and adjust for growth runes but it makes no difference

@worn scaffold You have purple on your name because you're a dark knight. the number next to your name on the left is the measure of your performance

[worn scaffold]

oof

[uncut pendant]

oh yeah do you have to be slanted from your chained partner to break it?

[flat ridge]

say... is there a list of general useful tips...? there is a channel #protips-and-ui , should i ask there?

like "mouse-over spells" i heard something about
and "saying things in chat on spells" etc.
but also UI/HUD related things

"tips&trick / pro-tips / life-hacks etc etc." in general

aka. "things that you would not think about, if you don't know they exist"

[forest laurel]

about "saying things in chat on spells" for the love of god don't put some RP shit on your rez macro

just "rezzing [target]" is enough

[agile laurel]

yeah nobody appreciates that

keep things functional

[oak ice]

I'm pretty sure no one knows exactly how far you have to run to break it, corners just lets you run farther

[flat ridge]

didn't ask for that
but thank you anyways

[tame plinth]

i saw someone say: "I am an American doctor, your bill is 15 million gil" that was funny

[uncut pendant]

alrighty thnx

[outer plank]

@forest laurel what seenoc said

[forest laurel]

I mean you kinda did why else would you ask here

[outer plank]

dont be"that guy"

[forest laurel]

#protips-and-ui is more for ui, macros, that kinda stuff yes

[flat ridge]

i asked for "tips&tricks"... you don't have to double or triple answer with "but don't roleplay in chat" xd

[outer plank]

we wouldn't have to say this if it wasn't so obnoxious and prevalent, even the people who think they're being smart by being ironic about it.

[flat ridge]

you can't come to the idea of doing some "mouse over targeting", without knowing it even exists in the game. is what i mean.

or "changing movement-options to legacy"

[tame plinth]

i always roleplay when i'm in dun scaith. but thats because my characters name is scathach eilean. and dun scaith is her home

found in extremely fun to see that scathach is in the game

[twilit arch]

Alright i think this can be dropped, no need to argue more about it

[flat ridge]

so... there isn't a common list for those things? or things veterans will tell beginners for help?
(like changing movement to legacy, or pulling your different jobs as short-cuts into a hotbar etc.)

[twilit arch]

well movement to legacy is a personal preference thing, but a lot of those are either things you figure out easily on your own by giving the config a nice browse thru

[flat ridge]

isn't playing bard with "standard" just a choke?

[twilit arch]

?

you can play bard just fine with standard

[flat ridge]

the character moves like... 0.4 times speed if you press S for backwards movement. you can only walk sideways or forward

[twilit arch]

wut

[uncut pendant]

you can also adjust each ui element for target so you can make just the boss cast bar very big and put it near the center, i wish i learned this sooner

[twilit arch]

you wouldn't backpedddle

you strife

[flat ridge]

@twilit arch

[twilit arch]

either way legacy or standard movement is entirely personal preference

again, you don't back peddle

you strife to the sides if you need to move

[young fjord]

Always strafe to side. if you need to run in a line then strafe in a line

Very importent in PvP

Legacy movement imo is trash in PvP, anyone who uses that can't run away and attack on the same time

[flat ridge]

I mean. ofc you CAN just always walk sideways. but if you are in range of an enemy attack, and need to move backwards, you need to 90 degree shift your camera, and then walk sideways, while legacy you can just... walk backwards

why would you not be able to attack at the same time?

[twilit arch]

again, its personal preference

you can attack while moving on standard

its not the hard

[flat ridge]

Legacy movement imo is trash in PvP, anyone who uses that can't run away and attack on the same time

[young fjord]

You need to be turned towards your target when you hit the ability

[flat ridge]

you can just attack while moving on legacy as well.. or what am i missing

[young fjord]

It then locked on

[flat ridge]

the character automatically turns around when you cast an ability, no?

[young fjord]

For example, casters need to look on target when they start ability, while it's casting it does not matter if enemy go behind them

However, if they are not looking at target they can't start to cast to begin with

[twilit arch]

you can do legacy just fine in pvp too

again its personal preference which type of movement you play with

[flat ridge]

However, if they are not looking at target they can't start to cast to begin with
huh...?
is that accurate? or outdated perhaps?

i am fine with it being preference. but i never heard about that "not casting when looking backwards" thing

[oak ice]

It's the same for every job, but "look at target when button is pressed" is on by default

[flat ridge]

examples?

[twilit arch]

you have to be facing your target to be able to use abilities

[flat ridge]

like... i am doing it right now, and my character automatically turns around for casting instantly

[twilit arch]

because you have the option to face target on

[oak ice]

Yes, because that option is on

[thorn mantle]

is ehll tou's custom delivery the best for scrips?

[tame plinth]

i have a question about the fate chain, breaching the hive and clearing the hive. for breaching you just need to break the gates. then clearing the hive starts which gives the objective "make your way to the heart of the redbelly high and defeat the captain". but when i do that it stays at 50%. is there something else that needs to be done?

[oak ice]

If you turn it off you have to manually look at the enemy to cast spells

Ye, Ehll Tou and Kai-Shir since they're the highest, unless another npc has a bonus

[flat ridge]

Legacy movement imo is trash in PvP, anyone who uses that can't run away and attack on the same time
so.... what...? but automatically facing the enemy is (at least for me) the default on legacy... so...? i don't get this

is there any theoretical disadvantage?

[plain python]

how to know if items are bound or market-able?

[twilit arch]

if the item is bound to you, you cannot trade it

[young fjord]

If you are running away (kite) from someone, and you have that, you will turn around towards them, hence no longer kiteing, This is not a problem while strafeing

[proud willow]

an item that you've bound to will say "BINDING" at the top

and will have a number (other than 0) in the Spiritbond field

[leaden ginkgo]

How do I add materia to something guys?

[young fjord]

Right click item>Meld

You need to have a crafter for that however

[jade quartz]

just noting that you've all got the movement options backward

[young fjord]

If you don't, you can "Request meld" from another crafter or go to a city materia melder

[flat ridge]

If you are running away (kite) from someone, and you have that, you will turn around towards them, hence no longer kiteing, This is not a problem while strafeing
@young fjord
i just checked. mid-movement my character continues running forward with 0MS delay in movement

[fresh lodge]

You need to use an NPC melder if you're not a high enough crafter level

[jade quartz]

Legacy is the one where you can run backwards

Standard is the one with slow backpedaling.

[fresh lodge]

They'll be the materia icon on the mini map

[jade quartz]

Everyone seems to mix them up all the time

[leaden ginkgo]

@young fjord is there a melder in every city?

[young fjord]

Every major city

Limsa, Ul'dah, Gridania

And some others

[flat ridge]

your character does not stop in order to turn around. he will "glitch-run while continue to move and turn around at the same time" @young fjord

[leaden ginkgo]

@young fjord what does a materia icon look like? A circle?

[young fjord]

Blue gem

[flat ridge]

or maybe i am just not understanding it...

[fresh lodge]

Its like a cyan oval stone

[leaden ginkgo]

A cyan oval stone got it

[flat ridge]

are there spells with "cast time, that you can also move during"?

[young fjord]

You can slide cast

[fresh lodge]

No

For most of the cast you have to be standing still

Slide casting can only happen at the end of a cast

[leaden ginkgo]

How do I do like goldsmithing stuff?

[flat ridge]

instant spells you continue with full speed on lecacy while running away from your enemy. and casting spells.. you stand still

[oak ice]

You have to go to the crafter guild you want to unlock

[fresh lodge]

Anyways, I think this can move to #general-discussion

[wintry chasm]

How do I do like goldsmithing stuff?
@leaden ginkgo Go to the goldsmith guild, unlock the class, equip the hammer, and go to the crafting log

[fresh lodge]

Since its not really answering a question anymore

[wintry chasm]

and you can select what to craft from there

[leaden ginkgo]

@wintry chasm thanks I think I was trying to do it without going to the guild

[wintry chasm]

(It's in Ul'dah btw)

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks man

I saw something about class changing at a specific level did I read that right?

[simple pine]

All crafter skills are identical right? So I can make a nice layout on my lvl 80 crafter, then just load that into all my other crafters so the keybinds are identical

[twilit arch]

yes

[granite swan]

Do you have to do something special to get Kupo of Fortune 1 and 5 stuff? Its always greyed out

[twilit arch]

if you're choosing the option to the far left, then its never going to be 1/5

you need to choose one of the three options to the right

[granite swan]

Ah

[wintry chasm]

I saw something about class changing at a specific level did I read that right?
@leaden ginkgo When you've done your level 10 class quest on your starting class you can go unlock all the other classes

[flat ridge]

anyways now... for those general tips&tricks.... nothing?

i am not sure if #questions-and-help or #protips-and-ui is better for this question. #protips-and-ui is technically not a question-channel

[wintry chasm]

Well

You were talking about macro skills

[leaden ginkgo]

@wintry chasm doesn’t a class sort of evolve or something when you hit a certain level

[wintry chasm]

You should never really macro skills except some skills it can be nice for like "raise" since you could have a message in chat to say who you are ressing so both healers don't end up accidentally spending 5 seconds ressing the same person

[young fjord]

Only combat classes "evolve"

Crafters/Gather does not

[wintry chasm]

@leaden ginkgo into jobs yes. It's a level 30 quest unlock. Gotta do your class quests and there is a MSQ requirement but that requirement isn't to hard to get to.

[young fjord]

It's also only for ARR jobs

[wintry chasm]

^

[young fjord]

And expasion job is just the job, no "evolution tree"

[wintry chasm]

expansion jobs are just standalone jobs

[flat ridge]

everyone here seems to know about

just "rez [target]"
as commands etc.
those are definitely not "in the Square-Enix tutorial". If you don't know about it, you can't know about it.

[leaden ginkgo]

Forgive me but, are class quests the ones you get from guilds?

[wintry chasm]

If you open up the user macro menu Vicious

there is a button that has EVERY command in the game

and explains how to use them

[young fjord]

The ones you get from guilds starts/unlock the class, from there you have a new quest every 5 level

[wintry chasm]

Yes Toby

They are

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[wintry chasm]

You'll be doing class/job quests all the way up to 80 pretty much

You always want to be up to date with it

for skills

and gear

and whatnot

[young fjord]

Yeah, doing those are some of the best gear for that level

(which does not cost a fortune)

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok, I’m only level 27 I think

😂 baby steps

[wintry chasm]

I hope you're up to date

[severe tusk]

Whats the best way to level a second job from 1?

[wintry chasm]

because if not you're already missing a skill Toby

!faq altlvlguide

[zinc orbit]

Leveling Guide for Alt jobs 🍻

Level 1 to 70 in five days (Stormblood)

[wintry chasm]

doesn't have stuff for Shadowbringers but still works for 1-70

[young fjord]

Kill random stuff untill lvl 15, then deep dungeon if you are DPS, or highest level dungeon if you are tank/healer

[wintry chasm]

For Shadowbringers just fates and highest level dungeon spam/roulettes

Kill random stuff untill lvl 15, then deep dungeon if you are DPS, or highest level dungeon if you are tank/healer
Nooooo

Don't kill random stuff

[young fjord]

Yeesss

[wintry chasm]

Kill the hunting log mobs

Until you kinda get diminishing returns

[young fjord]

Time = exp

[severe tusk]

I see. I hit 80 on summoner earlier but I just started shadowbringers. I wanna try pal and got gladiator to 25 so far.

[young fjord]

Armory bonus, Exp ring, FC buff, Food buff, you will fly past those early levels

[leaden ginkgo]

On the plus side you have scholar at 80 too

[wintry chasm]

Also if you do have someone to queue with to make queues shorter highest level dungeon spam > PotD for DPS

also no matter the role

do the roulettes each day

[leaden ginkgo]

Also eating food constantly

[young fjord]

Beast tribes can also give a nice chuck

If you need "just that push" to enter a new dungeon

[leaden ginkgo]

Does hall of the novice give a little xp?

All of these words man it’s like I’m learning a new language

[young fjord]

Nothing worth to mention, however you get a ring which gives you 50% exp boot up to lvl 30 @leaden ginkgo

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh thats where its from? Huh

Hall of the novice is an area in... La noscea (?) Where it teaches you the basics for each class

[young fjord]

Yes

@leaden ginkgo

[twilit arch]

there's a smith in every adventurer guild in the major cities and next to most of the leveling dungeons

They all function the same, in that they'll queue you for the hall of novice exercises so you don't have to specifically go to the western la noscea location

but that said, the game will literally lead you to the hall of novice in the msq

Hello do free trial players have access to Novice Network? Whats novice network?

[young fjord]

Yes, they have access, however they need to be invited by a mentor, a mentor

Someone with this burgerkind crown

[hollow mango]

i see

What does it do?

[young fjord]

Novice Network, NN, is a special Server wide chat in which new players can ask questions

Pretty toxic on NA server tho imo

[hollow mango]

Oww i see

Im in Asia

[young fjord]

No experience there

[hollow mango]

how is it toxic

[young fjord]

On NA and some EU servers people just use it to shitpost

[twilit arch]

NN is a mixed bag

some servers are decent, others are....kind of free for alls

[hollow mango]

On NA and some EU servers people just use it to shitpost
@young fjord waa that sucks

[twilit arch]

since mentors are suppose to moderate the chat, but not all mentors are very good

[young fjord]

Requirement for Mentor is so low currently that pretty much anyone can get in

[hollow mango]

So its like 1 mentor and many atudents?

[wintry chasm]

since mentors are suppose to moderate the chat, but not all mentors are very good
Yeah it's kind of a roulette on if it's good or bad

[hollow mango]

in a chat?

[young fjord]

100 mentors 512 sprouts (new players)

[wintry chasm]

More like 100 "mentors" who might not actually know or just fucking talk about spoilers or....just...idk shitpost about whatever

[hollow mango]

I see other than having chats does it offer something elese?

no spoilers

[wintry chasm]

Not really

[young fjord]

Nothing this channel can't offer

#questions-and-help

[wintry chasm]

[young fjord]

:flex:

[jade quartz]

Having the chat is the main draw tbh

[hollow mango]

Im bettee of here than a novice network

[jade quartz]

a world chat that will tell you when hunt trains are starting

[fresh lodge]

You'll actually get an answer here

[hollow mango]

Yea

[fresh lodge]

You might get one on NN, or you might get shitposting

[wintry chasm]

I should stress that NN can be good

[young fjord]

On Lich it's good

[wintry chasm]

It's just ehhh, will it?

[hollow mango]

Well im on Asia and the chat is probly gon be full on Japanese

And i dont wanna atresss out the japanese mentors

[tame plinth]

on what stat are the abillities second wind and bloodbath based?

[young fjord]

Second wind is based on atack power iirc

Bloodbath is heal based on damage dealt

[tame plinth]

so for DRG, the main stat for both would be str?

[young fjord]

Yes

Str is main stat for DRG

However alway sprioretize weapon damage

[tame plinth]

str, crit, direct hit, det. thats the priorities for DRG right?

although str, you should get enough of, of the gear itself

[young fjord]

I don't know stat weights for DRG

#balance

[buoyant wasp]

i can't find this map anywhere, tried every single known map location in the tempest to no avail, anybody know where it is?

[young fjord]

https://ffxivmaps.online/the-tempest/

[buoyant wasp]

tried them all, couldn't find it

[twilit arch]

that's for the 8 man maps

[leaden ginkgo]

Whats the name of the map you have

[twilit arch]

https://www.dopr.net/ff14playguide/treasurehunt5-1 its B

[young fjord]

That map is lankland?

[twilit arch]

its got more than lakeland

[buoyant wasp]

that'll explain why i couldn't find it, thanks for the help all - kaelwryn especially

[leaden ginkgo]

is the Gridanian ring good? (Im level 19 conjurer)

[young fjord]

It's better than nothing

[leaden ginkgo]

I already have weathered ring and brand new ring and those look way better so idk if im missing something

[young fjord]

Brand new ring is king

3+ all stats and 50% exp boost

That +1 Direct hit from gridanian ring you won't even notice

Like it might increese your damage by 0.0001 overall

[leaden ginkgo]

okay

ill just keep it in armoury chest then lol

[young fjord]

Again, better than nothing, however resistance is pretty much a dead stat

[leaden ginkgo]

cause weathered is just +1 version of brand new

what's the purpose of completing sightseeing log aside from the minion and achievements?

[young fjord]

sense of pride and acomplishment

[jade quartz]

lil bit of exp

[polar hound]

Paintings

[jade quartz]

can buy paintings of the vistas as housing furnishings

[flat ridge]

what's best to level past level 70? someone said PotD is good for DPS lv 1-70, otherwise just dungeons

[young fjord]

For DPS, best exp/h is beast tribes at lvl 70+

Then roulettes

Then highest level dungeon

Then FATEs

[modest gust]

to get allied rank wuth namanzu for example should i get bloodsworm rank with anatana and kojin?

[young fjord]

You can get bloodsworn with everyone, they are all separate

[twilit arch]

yes, you have to get bloodsworn with all of the stormblood beast tribes and then do the allied beast tribe quest to get allied

[modest gust]

i max namanzu but cant get allied rank

:0

take so long

[rich bay]

@modest gust

You need to max out the Ananta and the Kojin too, that unlocks the final rank. (By completing the SB Allied beast tribe quests.)

[upper rock]

home world transfer costs 18 dollar right?

[rich bay]

Yes, it is 18 bucks.

[upper rock]

The free one is if you transfer to a new world right?

[rich bay]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/option_service/world_transfer_service/

[young fjord]

Free is when you transfer from a congested to a prefferd iirc

[rich bay]

Yes, or when you go from Congested to preferred

[upper rock]

Okay thx guys

[rich bay]

Transfer to new world is always free.

[twilit arch]

there's no new worlds though

[rich bay]

Yep, the last 2 new worlds were Spriggian and Twintania a long while back. (When 4.57 was released.)

[bold rain]

FINNALY I HAVE ENOUGH SPACE

lets just wait for it to download

[rich bay]

Yay!

[glossy flare]

You can think about what job to play while you wait o/

[rich bay]

Demi, you are on free trial?

I see the game is downloading HW in that screenshot.

[bold rain]

i heard there is a samurai and shinobi one

and i WANT to play as a samurai

[glossy flare]

HW is part of the free trial now

so it is fine

yeah, gotta have another job at lvl 50 before you can get into Samurai sadly

[rich bay]

Yes, but for Samurai you need to have a subscription @bold rain.

Because samurai is part of Stormblood. (So you need to buy shadowbringers to access it.)

[glossy flare]

ah right

[bold rain]

dammmit

[glossy flare]

Ninja is part of the free trial though, but you can not start as one

[bold rain]

so ill take a thing with a sword or soaring blades

[rich bay]

Yep, Rougue is in Limsa.
And becomes Ninja.

[young fjord]

Gladiator/Paladin/Dark Knights are tanks

[glossy flare]

If you want Ninja asap take a job that starts in Limsa Lominsa and once the game allows you to change jobs (lvl 10) get over to the rogues guild

[rich bay]

Yep, Maruader or Arcanist. Those 2 start in Limsa.

[bold rain]

ill take a thing with double blades

or swords

[glossy flare]

Ninja is the only one with double blades

[rich bay]

Double blades is ninja.

[glossy flare]

double daggers to be exact, though some of them are rather huge 😄

[rich bay]

Yep.

[young fjord]

Chef knife as Culinarian

[bold rain]

i call them double blades beacuse i am a old pso2 player

since the pso2 universe days

[slate arrow]

I had a brief moment of confusion

[bold rain]

they were changed to soaring blades

[glossy flare]

here is a video that gives a good beginners overview of all the jobs btw

https://youtu.be/k_vH-1WZQ3A

[bold rain]

well thank you

[glossy flare]

just remember that Samurai, Red Mage, Dancer and Gunbreaker are part of addons not included in the free trial

[vital ruin]

How to get more ventures

[open coral]

Buy them with GC seals.

[vital ruin]

Gotta hunt :/

[open coral]

You can get GC seals from FATEs or gear turn-ins...

Gear turn ins especially are much quicker than hunts for accumulating GC seals.

[left cedar]

Why do people put things up on marketboard for 1 gil?

[slate arrow]

absolutely no clue, but probably due to the sale price or sheer volume of things

[open coral]

What sorts of things?

[bold rain]

FINNALT

WHAT CLASS TO PICK

[vital ruin]

Are GC seals company seals

[open coral]

Yes

GC = grand company

[glossy flare]

if you wanna go Ninja take Marauder or Arcanist

[vital ruin]

o I've like 30k of them

[wintry chasm]

WHAT CLASS TO PICK
Whatever you want. There is a pinned video which kinda goes through how each job plays (albeit a bit memey)

[bold rain]

What to pick here

[glossy flare]

gotta place those to lvl 10, then you can get the quest to become a rogue (which later becomes Ninja)

[wintry chasm]

What region are you demi?

NA?

[bold rain]

i am from the europe

[open coral]

Light or Chaos then

[wintry chasm]

Then Light or Chaos

[bold rain]

techniclly from the middle east but

[wintry chasm]

Yeah dw we get you

But yeah Light and Chaos are the EU data centers

Not really a difference between the two

[bold rain]

there are a lot of people in this thingie ?

[wintry chasm]

Sure?

[open coral]

You mean... this game?

This discord?

The datacenter?

[bold rain]

welp i guess ill go with light

[open coral]

You'll need to be a bit more specific lol

[glossy flare]

good choice o/

[wintry chasm]

The only thing to note really with the EU servers is uh

Moogle is unofficial French and Shiva is unofficial German

otherwise go wild

[open coral]

^

[bold rain]

i am pressing on it

why the frick

it dosent work

[wintry chasm]

bottom right?

[glossy flare]

select it, then go for the confirmation

[wintry chasm]

^

[bold rain]

to where?

sorry for this shit

[open coral]

There should be a button

[bold rain]

i am a noob

[glossy flare]

bottom right should have a button to click on after you selected your data center

[daring nimbus]

hi, so i would like to have my friend purchase stormblood expansion pack (na) for me since i live in sea, i would like to know if the codes from the dvd-rom are still usable..

this is the product i am talking about btw
https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/xxwAAOSw1GJfYVZ0/s-l1600.jpg

[bold rain]

found it
its beacuse of a steam message

my bad

[wintry chasm]

Why would you buy Stormblood?

Buy Shadowbringers

[glossy flare]

would not recommend buying Stormblood only

[wintry chasm]

Shadowbringers comes with Stormblood for free

[glossy flare]

Shadowbringers includes it these days

[daring nimbus]

Why would you buy Stormblood?
@wintry chasm i would like to experience the game by expansion.... is that a bad thing?

[open coral]

I didn't even think you could still buy physical copies of Stormblood anymore.

[glossy flare]

not a bad thing

[wintry chasm]

Yes it is Equeanor

[green grail]

you have to go through stormblood either way

[wintry chasm]

because you can literally buy Shadowbringers, get the Stormblood stuff as well, and just ignore the shadowbringers stuff

and do EVERYTHING Stormblood first

[untold sand]

can u trade raegan peppers?

[daring nimbus]

im just curious if the codes are still usable

[wintry chasm]

Probably if it's unopened

[glossy flare]

they probably are, no guarantees though

[wintry chasm]

But it's a terrible terrible idea

[twilit arch]

no, they're untradeable @untold sand

[daring nimbus]

ah ok, thanks.. i thought they would be unusable after a certain period.

[open coral]

Better to just buy Shadowbringers, which physical copy codes will definitely still work.

[glossy flare]

and include Stormblood anyway

[open coral]

You're literally just... throwing away money by buying them separately.

[plain python]

when you rank up a beast tribe rank, more quest will be avaible from quest-givers who you already turned-in before rank-up?

[open coral]

Yes. You get a rank up quest, then three new quests for the day.

[simple pine]

on the post HW beast tribes yes the same npc

[green grail]

varies per tribe and sometimes per rank

[simple pine]

on the ARR beast tribes you might need a different npc

[bold rain]

ok thats the job thing?

[glossy flare]

no

[bold rain]

so what is that bullshit

[vivid thorn]

can unreal actually be compared to savage?

[glossy flare]

that is just your guardian deity

[twilit arch]

its just rp fluff

[glossy flare]

does not matter at all

just fluff

[bold rain]

now i pick a city right?

[twilit arch]

starting city is dictated by your starting class

[vivid thorn]

or rather a starting class

[bold rain]

ah so thats an another thing

[glossy flare]

again, if you want to go Ninja asap

take Marauder or Arcanist

[bold rain]

WAIT SO IT IS THE JOB

[glossy flare]

yes

[simple pine]

don't worry about starter city, after level 15 main quest you can go to any of the cities

[wintry chasm]

^

[glossy flare]

He said earlier that he wants to become Ninja

[bold rain]

i took the gladiator thingie

[wintry chasm]

Oh

[glossy flare]

so going for Limsa might be a good idea

[wintry chasm]

^

If you want to be ninja then yeahhh

[bold rain]

and a shlonging book

[open coral]

That's Arcanist.

[vivid thorn]

can you start rogue before you have access to airships?

[glossy flare]

Yup, Arcanist fights with a book

[open coral]

They start in Limsa, so that's fine if you want to be a NIN.

[twilit arch]

if you start in limsa, yes

[wintry chasm]

^

[twilit arch]

thats why its strongly recommend if you want to play nin asap, you go marauder or arcanist

[simple pine]

https://i.imgur.com/uHQeaC7.png

[bold rain]

so i guess ill take a book

[open coral]

You can take a book, or a giant axes

[bold rain]

ahhh nevermind

[twilit arch]

since you can get those two to lvl 10 quickly, complete the lvl 10 class quest and then switch to nin

[glossy flare]

or an axe if thats more your speed

[open coral]

Before your first dungeon at level 15 in the it doesn't really matter what class you've chosen.

Because your role (dps, healer, or tank) doesn't come into play in solo content the same way it does in group content.

[bold rain]

so i am from a a server called odin

sounds dope

[glossy flare]

wait until you fight the guy

[bold rain]

but i bought the game dammit

[twilit arch]

yeah...you have 30 days free which is the days of play time remaining

those don't count towards your total days subscribed

[bold rain]

wawaawaawawawawawait

i bought the game

[open coral]

Yes

There's a monthly subscription as well

[glossy flare]

this is a subscription based mmo

[bold rain]

and i can only play for 30 days!?!?!??!

[simple pine]

this is a subscription based game, need to pay every month

[glossy flare]

which means it has a monthly cost

[twilit arch]

noo...

You have 30 days for free from buying starter/complete edition

after that you will have to pay to play

[simple pine]

13~ bucks every month after that

[bold rain]

it triggers automaticly?

[open coral]

The sub?

No

[wintry chasm]

If you have your sub set to automatic

[open coral]

^

[bold rain]

THANK GOD

[simple pine]

you can enable automatic payment or buy cards with x days of time

[bold rain]

that is techniclly a pay to win game

[open coral]

No

It's a pay to play game

[bold rain]

yea

kind of

[open coral]

Pay to win would mean you can only do well if you buy the best gear from the cash shop

[bold rain]

so wait a sec if i bought the steam ver that means i have it for like 60 game

[open coral]

The cash shop in this game doesn't have any real gear.

[simple pine]

it's pay to play so it doesn't have to become pay to win, like most "free" mmos

[glossy flare]

you can not buy anything that gives you an advantage with money

so not pay to win

well technically you can buy stuff that levels up your character but that is just a time saver

not like it is actually needed

[bold rain]

well

[open coral]

Steam, PC, or PS4 version doesn't matter. You pay the same amount for the game, but you still have to pay a monthly sub.

[agile laurel]

and buying a job boost doesn't stop you being shite at it

[simple pine]

just play for 30 days and see if you like it afterwards, no need to worry about all this now

[agile laurel]

as most of duty finder it seems can attest

[glossy flare]

the sad truth

[open coral]

Yeah, if you don't like the game in a month, you don't have to reup your sub.

nbd

[bold rain]

well

thats something

i hope to have fun with those next 30 days

[simple pine]

and if you still have questions you will also understand them easier after actually playing the game :p

[open coral]

But that's why... they have a free trial version

[faint meadow]

Bro...the steam page tells you right above the add to cart that it's a sub game

[open coral]

So people can try out the game for free up to the end of the first expansion with no time limitations.

[bold rain]

well

as i said

[hollow mango]

theres no revive on extreme difficulty?

[open coral]

?

There is?

Healers can always res as long as they have the MP

[raven sage]

If you're in like, Titan or something

And someone falls off then they're gone

[open coral]

Yeah, there are a few fights where getting yeeted is permadeath

[raven sage]

But otherwise you can still revive

[median locust]

you can't revive yourself in trials or raids, unless the rest of the party dies

[open coral]

Titan, Sophia, Sephirot...

[young fjord]

Leviathan

[proud willow]

not Sophia

[wintry chasm]

^

[raven sage]

Yeah you respawn in sophia

[median locust]

and yeah some older fights, if you get pushed off the arena, you can't get revived no matter what

[young fjord]

Also can't res in Rival wings

[crimson wind]

Just bad design

[hollow mango]

its just that

im at striking tree rn

extreeme

[median locust]

and the one exception is Rathalos Extreme, you can revive yourself there, but it's because you have a collective 3 lives across the party

[hollow mango]

and two dps fell down

nobody was reviving them

[crimson wind]

Don't do extremes synced

[open coral]

Then your healers made the executive decision not to res

[median locust]

you can fall in striking tree? lol

[open coral]

You can't

[hollow mango]

btb

[open coral]

There's no falling in Ramuh EX

[raven sage]

Yeah that was probably two angry healers

[proud willow]

or two healers without Swiftcast because everyone is dying

[open coral]

Or two WHM too obsessed with GLARE

[simple pine]

or no swiftcast and something is going on

[median locust]

There is only one raid where you can't revive people in the entire game, and you're nowhere near it

[simple pine]

you can't revive in navel, that's super early

[median locust]

if you fall

not if you just die normally

[crimson wind]

wym fissie

[median locust]

I'm talking no revives whatsoever with a corpse on the ground

[crimson wind]

which raid

[open coral]

Navel's a trial, not a raid.

[median locust]

Baldesion Arsenal

[open coral]

Ooh, Baldesion

[crimson wind]

if yeah

[open coral]

Does that even count tho?

[crimson wind]

You can cheese with sacrifice L

[median locust]

well you can with like, yeah cheese, but revive spells don't work

[crimson wind]

Sacrifice L chaining

[wintry chasm]

(I don't think this is a constructive talk anymore)

[open coral]

^

[median locust]

agreed lol

[hollow mango]

okay wtheck

2nd time the whole team abandoned striking tree extreme

they didnt even try to communicate

[young fjord]

Soo many

Did you queue via duty finder for extream?

[median locust]

That's kind of expected, Extremes and Minstrel's Ballad duties are endgame high-end fights

[young fjord]

or mentor?

[hollow mango]

had more fun with great guval library than this

duty finder

[wispy parcel]

Dont queue for extremes

[median locust]

No one queues for Extreme/Minstrel's Ballad except sprouts who don't know any better

[wispy parcel]

Do them unsynced

[median locust]

Use Party Finder if you really wanna do it

[hollow mango]

me was just trying to finish quest

[young fjord]

Okay good luck

[hollow mango]

i think i cant use party findernim just on free trial

[median locust]

Or wait until level 80 to faceroll it and get the loot with no effort

[hollow mango]

[median locust]

Yeah anything that says Extreme, Minstrel's Ballad, Binding Coils or Savage, don't queue for that

They're generally a lot harder than the rest of the game

[wispy parcel]

Then Id wait to do it

Else you'll never clear it cause no one but new players queues for extremes

[hollow mango]

i see

[wispy parcel]

Everything high-end is done via party finder

[crimson wind]

this is why you don't tell people to do every single blue quest

Only most of them

[open coral]

I mean

[hollow mango]

yea i was like okay ill finish blue quest before changing jobs

[open coral]

It's not that you can't do all the

It's just that

Some of them are harder to finish than others

[crimson wind]

ofc

[hollow mango]

well i guess ill just comeback to it later

nobody communicating earlier was just so hhhh

[open coral]

Since you're on free trial, you might need to just like

Find people here who are willing to run it unsync with you who have subs

[crimson wind]

Yeah once you get to 80 you can unsync that bitch and slap his shit in like 2 minutes

[open coral]

Since free trial can't use PF on their own

[hollow mango]

[median locust]

Yeah that's pretty much the thing with queuing Extremes. It's going to be a pain if nobody knows the fight and/or if people are not willing to listen to explanations

[crimson wind]

Mentors should still be doing their job

[open coral]

You can 2-man Ramuh EX with one level 80 and a level 50

Unsynced

[median locust]

But they don't and tell people to use PF and quit after 2 pulls, but that's beyond the question lol

[hollow mango]

with unsyc they can use all skills?

[open coral]

Yes

[median locust]

Yes, you go in with your level 80 stats and skills

if you're 80

[open coral]

^

[hollow mango]

well i kinda like the thrill of trying

or listening

but they were just meh

[median locust]

Most would rather not make the effort sadly

[open coral]

Nobody wants to spend time doing synced EX fights at low level these days since it's easier

Just to unsync

[hollow mango]

but yea if i ever find people o guess

Nobody wants to spend time doing synced EX fights at low level these days since it's easier
@open coral well fair enough

[wispy parcel]

you can even solo level 50 extremes

Unsynched

[crimson wind]

Will savage next tier get released with the patch or later?

[faint meadow]

You'd definitely have better luck finding shb ex stuff but. Most people doing old exs want the rewards from them

[wispy parcel]

Next major patch 5.4

[faint meadow]

Not the encounters

[crimson wind]

sora you're not getting my question

read it a bit more carefully

[wispy parcel]

It will be released with 5.4

[faint meadow]

Usually they wait a bit into the patch

Bu

[twilit arch]

savages are always released with the patch, barring the expansion release

[crimson wind]

ok

[faint meadow]

T

Oh

I'm dumb

[twilit arch]

that is the only time normal and savage is staggered

[faint meadow]

😳

[bold rain]

where is the gladiator guild building?

[wintry chasm]

Other section of Ul'dah

[open coral]

See the arrow with the symbol?

[wintry chasm]

Go to the Steps of Thal

[open coral]

Go through the dotted gates

[bold rain]

oh

well i am there

[crimson wind]

Btw go to all the blue crystals

Click and interact with them

It'll help A LOT

[bold rain]

k

[crimson wind]

They'll allow you to teleport to any other crystal inside of the city that you've attuned to

Do this for every city you get to

[rich bay]

The big Aetheryte Crystal is also a city-teleport one btw. (Aethernet)

[bold rain]

ahh is that the place?

sorry that i ask a lot

i just dont know what to do

[open coral]

It's nearby

Just look for the quest markers that either have the flame-y symbol around them like

Or the "So you want to be a gladiator"

[bold rain]

i see

[rich bay]

Yoy know Demi, lots of players refuse to ask questions and just do something, so you are smart by asking questions.
That shows you actually want to learn. (We experienced players have seen lots of players that "refuse" it.)

[remote lintel]

you're zoomed way out on the map so that's why it doesn't have labels

it should be to the left of the map by the circle

[open coral]

Quests with "So you want to be a..." in the title are job starter quests. After level 10 you'll see a whole ton of them appear everywhere. You don't have to pick them all up if you don't want to though. Just do the ones related to the job(s) you're interested in.

[bold rain]

and now

where is the market guy

[remote lintel]

sapphire avenue

[open coral]

Two ways to get to the market in Uldah

Either go back out to the main drag and head north(?) on the map

[remote lintel]

go to the right of your map

[open coral]

Or from the inside, also head north-ish - although you'll have to go through another dotted gate to enter the market.

[bold rain]

found it

thats the place right?

[remote lintel]

yes

[open coral]

Yep

Personally I find Ul'dah to be the second most confusing starting city... after Limsa Lominsa

[bold rain]

so where is tje giu

and you can just equip it and swap when you want

@bold rain If you...want

oh btw

Go back to the gladiator guild

pick up that class quest

The

[bold rain]

found it

[wintry chasm]

A) it's xp and unlocks the hunting log which is a lot of xp
B) class quests are critical to the game for giving skills and gear
C) story reasons

[obsidian wren]

!unmute @leaden ginkgo

[zinc orbit]

Success!

@calm ibex has been unmuted by @obsidian wren.

[obsidian wren]

try not spamming in all channels after asking here already

[ashen pendant]

Is there a macro to turn off the animation of a specific spell?

[obsidian wren]

for easy mgp farming do the fashion report & jumbo cactpot weekly, and try doing mini cactpot daily

[wintry chasm]

No

[obsidian wren]

no

[wintry chasm]

You can't do it on a spell by spell basis

[ashen pendant]

Ugh. I ONLY have issues with holy

[wintry chasm]

Dw

Once your eyes have melted enough

You get used to it

[young fjord]

[open coral]

Or you just

[bold rain]

NOW where is the thing because i cant find it

[open coral]

Limit all spell effects.

[austere dust]

you can just disable all spell animations from other players

[wintry chasm]

map Demi

[ashen pendant]

I don't wanna tho lol

[austere dust]

too bad

[ashen pendant]

I like seeing all the spells

[wintry chasm]

in fact

actually

[young fjord]

Start to play with sunglasses

[ashen pendant]

I just hate holy

[wintry chasm]

Press that quest name

and bring up the journal menu

[open coral]

Your map will always show you an arrow pointing you to quests that have an objective in an adjacent zone

[bold rain]

got you!

[wintry chasm]

in that journal menu it'll have a button that says "map"

[remote lintel]

your map literally has big red circles

showing the area

[open coral]

@ashen pendant Personally I set everything to "limited effects" for everyone else and leave it alone for myself

Then it's only my Holy that blinds me 😄

[young fjord]

^

[open coral]

That way I can still more or less see what other peoples' spells are doing, but mine are unaffected

[ashen pendant]

i find that holy is more insufferable

cuz it's directly on my screen

[open coral]

Eh

[remote lintel]

get used to it

[open coral]

I mean, it's not that bad once you get used to it, like Calisaie said

[ashen pendant]

it's the blue light that i have an issue with, idc about the others

[open coral]

If it's the color you might be able to play around with the game's color settings?

[wispy parcel]

Holy is the most spammed spell in the game for WHM so its something youll have to deal with

[open coral]

Or if you're on PC you can try something with the Reshade mod

[ashen pendant]

reshade mode?

[remote lintel]

mod

a 3rd party mod

[young fjord]

Mod which handle saturation, ADOF, amognst other visual things

[open coral]

^

[wintry chasm]

basically you can make the game look different and cool

Can even do stuff like this...if you wanted to

[remote lintel]

my eyes

[open coral]

That looks really cool

Like concept art

[wispy parcel]

Jesus

[wintry chasm]

(slightly deviating but it ran pretty well actually)

[trail mulch]

wrt applying to fc, if someone is offline can their application be approved

or must they be online

[young fjord]

With and without reshade

[wintry chasm]

They can get accepted while offline

[trail mulch]

[glossy flare]

Arigato

[magic light]

what's votekick abuse?

[glossy flare]

votekicking someone for arbitrary reasons

Like you queue with 3 of your friends but that SAM has a glamour you think is really ugly so you votekick them

[remote lintel]

what

[glossy flare]

In mmo culture this is considered a dick move

[remote lintel]

oh you mean abusing vote kick

[magic light]

okay, what if it isn't the glamour being suck?

and..

i recognize this shitter

[remote lintel]

you can blacklist them

and then you wont queue with them

[glossy flare]

Yeah

[twilit arch]

yes you would

blist does not stop you from being queued with them

[magic light]

blacklist doesn't stop me from being queued with them

[twilit arch]

it only stops you from seeing their emotes/whispers and being able to join their pfs
