[remote lintel]

those are your options

[polar hound]

challenge log and such til you unlock sastasha then dungeon spam for healer/tank for sure.

[keen fable]

Is there a way to turn off motion blur?

[white crescent]

Ah cool cool

[ripe hound]

But Arcanist is also dps though

[earnest imp]

Don’t forget warrior

[remote lintel]

i dont recall motion blur being in this game

[wooden ginkgo]

should i worry about materia? im lvl 37 and im not using any

[earnest imp]

No

[remote lintel]

marauder is warrior

[keen fable]

maybe it's just the screen of this laptop

;v

[earnest imp]

I meant gladiator

[remote lintel]

oh right

[polar hound]

materia wont matter til youre maxed out dw about it

[faint flare]

Materia is primarily for endgame

[keen fable]

and crafting ;p

[wooden ginkgo]

oooh ok

[keen fable]

cp materia

very useful

but i guess that's not really an issue until ishgard resto anyways

[ripe hound]

As a Lv 40 crafter leveling everything up with Ishgard Restore, materias can be useful right?

Just to hit some bars to use macros

[keen fable]

yes. but that's for maxing collectability, and getting the gear to do that can be expensive

[earnest imp]

Sooo ishgard restored will end up being 6.0?

[remote lintel]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[gloomy ice]

We don't have a timeline on that but it sounds plausible.

[remote lintel]

its not going away

[keen fable]

is there any word on whether ishgard resto will be removed as a leveling technique come it being completed?

[earnest imp]

Probably

[gloomy ice]

Nah, previous phases weren't removed.

[ripe hound]

I made HQ gear for myself

[remote lintel]

no its not going away

[ripe hound]

Maybe it could be useful

[earnest imp]

Ahh okay nice

[gloomy ice]

It's unlikely that they'll take it out post 5.x

[earnest imp]

So this is the new way to level doh/dol?

[ripe hound]

Also Previous phases are not that relevant right?

[keen fable]

doh, yes, you can use it

[ripe hound]

If I can do Phase 3 I do Phase 3

[remote lintel]

dol is the lazy way

[warped nest]

It is a new option, good for people who can afford to grind over a weekend

[gloomy ice]

Levequests are arguably still better? But they are limited.

[keen fable]

eh

no

[warped nest]

In terms of exp/time efficiency, Leve are still better

[ripe hound]

Nah, Restor is better

[keen fable]

there's a point 63-71 where levequests are better, yes

but thats also very expensive

[ripe hound]

Oh

[keen fable]

if you care, desparius did an in-depth guide on it

[gloomy ice]

Hence arguably 😛

[keen fable]

everywhere else though, it's not

[gloomy ice]

I digress. Pick whichever option works best for you.

[keen fable]

like its not even close

BUT

it can be more fun

depends on how you personally want to do it

[remote lintel]

tldr theyre both fine

[keen fable]

^

ishgard resto is very nice overall, 2-400k for a level 63 crafter (provided you already have the gear), is very nice

it's only a bit more to get to 80

and it only takes a few hours

[warped nest]

Ishgard Restoration is easier to grind over weekends

Leve quest is OK too if you are trying to do them while waiting for dungeons

[remote lintel]

i leveled my weaver to 73 using only beast tribes

[keen fable]

cerberus pls

[remote lintel]

it was more about the beast tribes and less about actually trying to level

[keen fable]

thats what they all say

[ripe hound]

Is there a way to change class while in a cutscene?

[keen fable]

no

[warped nest]

No

[ripe hound]

Like a way to join a queue without sacrificing the cutscene?

[keen fable]

sadly. it's very annoying getting a dungeon popping while in a story cutscene

[warped nest]

No

[ripe hound]

Very sad

[remote lintel]

if you commence the thing it puts you back to the start of the cutscene after oyu get out

[keen fable]

yeah, but the issue is queing alt jobs while leveling the story

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[remote lintel]

skip and watch in the inn

[keen fable]

cause dungeons never pop while out of que

[ripe hound]

ahhh

[keen fable]

see but thats annoying af :C

[remote lintel]

suffer

[ripe hound]

Is there a place to find a list of all crafter job turn ins?

[pine phoenix]

is wonderous tails exp based off the highest level job or the job you picked it up with?

[faint flare]

Job you turn in on

[ripe hound]

The job you picked it with

I mean turned in

[pine phoenix]

ok so like i didnt mess up by picking itup with a lower level job right?

[faint flare]

No

[pine phoenix]

thanks

[ripe hound]

Does this look accurate?
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Carpenter_Quests

Also there are no more crafter job quests from lv 71 to 80?

[faint flare]

The facets

[sand stratus]

there are no specific job quests from 70 to 80

[ripe hound]

kk

[remote lintel]

its the second tab

high end

[faint flare]

Its in the HIGH END DUTY tab

[remote lintel]

alternatively click raid finder under the duty menu to bring up the same thing

[faint flare]

All current extremes and savages go there, as well as ultimates

[ripe hound]

Is there a way to indicate stuff must be HQ on Team Craft?

[keen fable]

ninjas will find primary use from leatherworked gear, right?

with the exception of the chest and helm?

[pine phoenix]

what happens if all the cannons die before you kill livia in castrum? i feel like she doesn't do enough damage to outresource healers even if you can't do damage to her

[earnest imp]

Why are there so many bots in Diadem?

[remote lintel]

@pine phoenix they get repaired after a while

[honest anvil]

Past a certain level, msq roulette exp becomes not worth it right?

[jade quartz]

Yeah they regenerate

No

The roulette exp reward scales to your level

Always the same % of your exp bar

[honest anvil]

oh wow

[jade quartz]

MSQ roulette is good exp always

All roulette exp works the same

So leveling and alliance roulettes (the other two that have large exp rewards) also remain good all the way through

[honest anvil]

ig it’s just slower at higher levels then

[jade quartz]

?

[plain python]

are there store-outfits that can obtain in-game through events?

[honest anvil]

i’m at 67 i think, doing msq roulette, and levelling together gave a level and a half iirc

[jade quartz]

Seasonal outfits on the Mog Station are from past ingame events

Other stuff is made exclusively for the Mog Station

Anything that goes on the Mog Station will not ever be obtainable through ingame means again.

[whole wasp]

Generally, previous event items come back on the mogstation 1 year later.

[crimson wind]

Is Snow's outfit in mogstation?

[sour ruin]

Is doing the zodiac weapon quest worth or should I just sit on my ironworks weapon until later expansions

[vocal shell]

yes

its on mog

@crimson wind

[crimson wind]

kk

@sour ruin don't do relic weapons until you hit 80

[white sierra]

How rare are the blue chests in hw leaves for the aetherkins?

[soft tundra]

From what I've heard, no Zodiac/Anima/whatever are worth doing except for current expansion, because previous ones are outclassed. Only reason to is if you have a whole bunch of time and want to glam them

[crimson wind]

Just craft for your crystal sand

Vilekin takes much longer

[sour ruin]

Okay, just looking for ways to increase damage for hard level primals

[undone bronze]

Hi. Question about MCH ability.
Comparing Drill vs Bioblaster.
Drill has a potency of 700, Bioblaster is a dot with potency 60x15sec
Drill is single target, bioblaster is aoe.

Given those numbers, even against single target, shouldnt i be using bioblaster?

[crimson wind]

Hard mode is just normal mode

[devout anvil]

Was there a maintenance?

[white sierra]

@crimson wind my highest crafter is lv 23 weaver...

[crimson wind]

Bioblaster is 2+ targets UNLESS reassemble is up @undone bronze

In which you use Reassembled Drill

[undone bronze]

what about 1 target? bioblaster deals more damage right? 60x15 > 700

[crimson wind]

@crimson wind my highest crafter is lv 23 weaver...
@white sierra get it to 50, farm Rowena's Blue Tokens

or a gatherer

@undone bronze no, drill is still stronger

[undone bronze]

How does potency relate to damage? I assumed greater potency means greater damage

[white sierra]

In that case what's a good way to power level?

[crimson wind]

Dots only tick every 3 seconds

Not every second

[undone bronze]

and why not reassmble sky anchor instead of drill (both 700 potency)

[elfin notch]

DoT tick every 3 seconds

[undone bronze]

Ohhhhhh

[elfin notch]

Yep

[crimson wind]

so you get 5 ticks which totals to 300 potency

[undone bronze]

right right

so even 2 target its better for drill

though it depends on the situation at that point

[white sierra]

For real I have no idea how to level weaver quickly

[crimson wind]

so even 2 target its better for drill
@undone bronze Bioblaster is 2 targets since the dot isn't the only thing that does damage

[devout anvil]

Im getting connection lost everytime i want to enter

[crimson wind]

@white sierra Ishgaridan Restoration

[white sierra]

Ah ok

[crimson wind]

But you have to get a certain amount of quality on the crafts to get exp

[undone bronze]

@undone bronze Bioblaster is 2 targets since the dot isn't the only thing that does damage
@crimson wind What do you mean by that?

[crimson wind]

!action Bioblaster

[zinc orbit]

**Bioblaster** : lvl 72 MCH (20.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 60 to all enemies in a cone before you.
Additional Effect: Damage over time
Potency: 60
Duration: 15s
Shares a recast timer with Drill.

[crimson wind]

Base hit with 2 targets is 120 potency

Then 600 potency with the dot

[undone bronze]

ahh.....so 720 vs 700

[spare plinth]

Does it feel scary to be a tank in an 8 man raid (like a primal)?

[crimson wind]

Not at all@spare plinth

[spare plinth]

Or people will understand if you’re new

[brave ravine]

if you're undergeared it is scary af

[crimson wind]

I'm a tank main, just hit mitigation when you see a cast bar that sounds like a tankbustee

[spare plinth]

I might try tank like Warrior

[crimson wind]

like "Crippling Blow" reeks of tankbuster

Oh, Warrior is a great first tank

[spare plinth]

I usually watch a video of a walkthrough so I know beforehand

[crimson wind]

Since you can heal off your missteps

It's more fun if you dont watch a guide, though

Your choice, ofc

[keen fable]

where may a lad find a ninja opener guide

[crimson wind]

I went through every trial and dungeon HW and up blind as a tank

!faq ninopener

[zinc orbit]

Whats the ninja opener?

[keen fable]

rephrase

at level 70

[faint flare]

Sane thing

[crimson wind]

basically the same

[faint flare]

Except remove bunshin

And Meisui

[crimson wind]

Without Meisui and Bunshin

[tulip plover]

Why are all the crafter leves at different locations

:L

[faint flare]

Which leads to 1 less bhava

[tulip plover]

Is there a centralized leve location for each lvl

[spare plinth]

For blm why add fire to the fire rotation?

[keen fable]

ty

[crimson wind]

To refresh Astral Fire

[spare plinth]

Fire 4 doesn’t reset?

[crimson wind]

No

[spare plinth]

Oh

[faint flare]

If it did then would be damn strong

[crimson wind]

You use Fire 3 to get back into astral from umbral

[keen fable]

they should change that tbh

[faint flare]

It would be too good

[keen fable]

maybe but explosions

[crimson wind]

Yeah it'd be overpowered

[faint flare]

Basically makes your AF timer irrelevant

[crimson wind]

Yes

[spare plinth]

Warrior does have an aoe skill

For trash pulls?

[crimson wind]

Yes

[faint flare]

Overpwer

[crimson wind]

Every job does

[faint flare]

And mythrial tempest

[crimson wind]

They should give us aoe upheaval

[faint flare]

Or just more damaging ogcds...though i guess that pushes IR too far

[crimson wind]

nah pls give us more damage ogcds

They don't all have to be beast gauge

[keen fable]

they should make fire v

exact same as fire Iv

but double the damage and half the mana

[crimson wind]

This is #questions-and-help btw

[keen fable]

oh oops

[random hollow]

i cant click buttons in game, such as close or [ok] in quests....any way around that?

[tulip plover]

Is there a simplistic list of all the most used crafting materials

[crimson wind]

Are you on controller

[random hollow]

yes

[manic tinsel]

how they do this when we enter a dungeon?

[crimson wind]

Use touchpad, tap it to change which window you're on

[remote lintel]

try pressing the left start button or whatever

[crimson wind]

@manic tinsel auto translate

[manic tinsel]

oooh i see thanks thanks

[keen fable]

why is doton used prepull?

i'm massively confused

[faint flare]

Its free

As you hide to reset the mudras

And hopefully the tank pulls the boss into it

Its free real estate

[keen fable]

ah

i gotcha

so its more that you hope the tank does something

[faint flare]

Pretty much

[keen fable]

and make use of the second charge you wouldn't normally do otherwise before the suiton reset

[faint flare]

No reason not to do ot

[keen fable]

er

hyoton

that makes sense

[faint flare]

Huton

[keen fable]

i was like, what buff does this provide wtf

yes that

[crimson wind]

You don't mudra outside trick

Except suiton

[cold crescent]

hey

totally out there question

curious if anyone can help

[dapper shadow]

We are awaiting this question in quivering anticipation

[keen fable]

so, if i'm understanding that wol, i should be using suiton after 40s have elapsed on trick, then using both charges during trick attack?

[cold crescent]

aight

so im setting custom emote macros

and im attaching certain commands to them on my dragoon class

[keen fable]

wouldn't you have an additional charge that you could raiton with before trick attack?

[cold crescent]

im trying to figure out how to get one attached to raiden thrust

[keen fable]

doesn't this waste a charge?

[cold crescent]

it works with blood of the dragon and limit break

[crimson wind]

No

@keen fable

[cold crescent]

but im not sure how to make raiden thrust a custom emote, like giving it a special line

[keen fable]

ooh i see, there's 3 charges per trick

[crimson wind]

You accumulate 2 charges and then suiton

The suiton will last long enough to trick

And then you get 3 in trick

[keen fable]

with kassatsu

got it

[crimson wind]

Raiton Raiton Raiton and later Raiton x2 with Hyosho Ryanyru

[keen fable]

what's the er potion in this rotation?

[faint flare]

Dex

[manic flare]

wanderer's palace (hard) is literally impossible to do with adventure squad

the first boss throws more spears than u can kill

[crimson wind]

@cold crescent Raiden Thrust is an upgrade if you meet certain requirements, so it can't be attached to the hotbar

!action Raiden Thrust

[zinc orbit]

**Raiden Thrust** : lvl 76 DRG (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 330.
Can only be executed when Raiden Thrust Ready.

※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.

Powered by XIVAPI

[faint flare]

Micromanage your squadron

Order them to engage the spears

[manic flare]

i do

but after he is down halfhealth, he throws a spear every 5 seconds

[crimson wind]

This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.

[warped nest]

You gain Raiden Thrust Ready by nailing the positional for your 5th combo

[crimson wind]

Yes

[cold crescent]

oh yeah

i kno how it works

[crimson wind]

And the boss always moves at that point

[cold crescent]

can't bind it to a emote tho?

sad boys lol

ty tho fellas

[crimson wind]

wut?

[faint flare]

Why would you

You use it so much you'll br extremely annoying

Thats like a quick way to get blacklisted/kicked ultra fast

[dapper shadow]

Cant you bind the emote onto the base skill? Dont they change to raiden automatically?

[crimson wind]

I don't understand what he's trying to do

[faint flare]

Its that thing that emotes in chat whenever you use a skill

[crimson wind]

Use a quote each time he does an attack with macros?

[dapper shadow]

Maybe he’d count the emote so he can see the amount of raiden he does? Idk

[crimson wind]

Yeah that's a quick BList

[faint flare]

Que those weeby LB macros

[keen fable]

After the opener, we're just using armor crush to keep up huton, and no other time, right?

[little swift]

you can /echo it

[faint flare]

Yes

[little swift]

but i don't recommend it, thats still griefing with the macrogcd

[crimson wind]

@keen fable try to not use AC in TA,

Unless you're in TA, refresh at 40s

[keen fable]

kay

[crimson wind]

Otherwise, Aeolian

[keen fable]

thank you

ninja is big brain

[crimson wind]

why do I know so much about a class I barely play

this is wasted brain space

[whole wasp]

Remember to shadowfang in TA too

[crisp quartz]

So Im playing a Viera, and I love my character but I hate that they cant wear helmets and I love the DRG helmets... truthfully though there arent much Helmets I care for but those I really love... i know there is no news om if or when they will make Vieras able to wear helmets but do you guys think thats a possibility? I was also thinking of changing to an Au Ra but not 100% sure... what do you guys think?

[whole wasp]

They line up so it should't be hard

[crimson wind]

Not every job has good helmets like dragoon

[whole wasp]

I dont think they will viera helm anytime soon. Especially with what i assume to be backlog and delays

[crimson wind]

so I'd say just stick with Viera

[whole wasp]

Also lizzers are cute and smol

[crimson wind]

smug is biased

as is Vinyl

[faint flare]

[crimson wind]

Ah yes, the certified tank-gen emote

[keen fable]

i'm assuming hyoshu ranryu and goku in this, just replaced with their non-kassatsu counterparts until level 76?

[faint flare]

Yes

[warped nest]

No

[faint flare]

Except the hyoton

[warped nest]

Not for Hyosho

[crisp quartz]

Lol thanks guys! I agree where not all the helmets look dope! I think I will stay as Viera for a bit longer! You guys are the best lol

[dapper shadow]

@crisp quartz i wont be hopeful. There are certain full on helmets that you can put on though, clipping your ear. But i dont think they will make any other ‘normal’ headgear fit on the viera

[keen fable]

oh wait, we just replace hyosho with raiton for now then?

[warped nest]

Yes

[keen fable]

i just realized that combo is hyoton

hyoton booty

[crisp quartz]

Cool thanks @dapper shadow !

[crimson wind]

hey, hyoton was good in PVP

Until they revamped pvp skills...

[keen fable]

is there a reason that we don't weave a frog in this after the meisui?

double weaving bhav and frog seems to be correct, but it's not there

oh wait

[warped nest]

...

[keen fable]

disregard that

holy shit

[warped nest]

Yup

[keen fable]

i'm

ignore that

[crimson wind]

You'll clip out the wazoo

[little swift]

[crimson wind]

[keen fable]

that literally never happened

[faint flare]

[crimson wind]

double weaving bhav and frog seems to be correct, but it's not there
@keen fable I'll remember this.

[warped nest]

You got the right concept... Tbf... Just that it is a Stormblood concept

[keen fable]

wol please

i beg of you

an ACTUAL question

can i replace bunshin with a bhav

until 80

[warped nest]

No

[crimson wind]

what your gauge will look like

At that point

[keen fable]

i would overcap had i not right?

[warped nest]

Oh...

Nvm

I read that incorrectly

[faint flare]

You just drop the bunshin and be a bhava in trick

[little swift]

that would be a fine thing to do

[keen fable]

alright cool

[little swift]

and bunshin doesn't align with every trick anyways

[keen fable]

kk

my brain is hurting trying to learn this

[patent citrus]

what are some good way to farm yellow scrips without waiting for the weekly deliveries?

[faint flare]

Collectibles

Pretty much the only way

Well and ocean fishing for gathering is ok for yellow gathering

[patent citrus]

i see, is it the one in collectibles appraisers?

[manic flare]

@faint flare finally killed it

[faint flare]

Yes

[patent citrus]

ok

[manic flare]

@faint flare need to use ruin II over ruin III or ruin

[faint flare]

[crimson wind]

Ruin 2 is pretty bad.

[patent citrus]

no broils?

[crimson wind]

Unless you need to weave

[faint flare]

Broil is scholar

[patent citrus]

ah ok haha

[manic flare]

@crimson wind it's instant though

[crimson wind]

and?

[faint flare]

Its lower potency

[crimson wind]

You have so many better weaving tool

[faint flare]

Instant cast doesn't mean its better

[manic flare]

i only use it for the boss that throws spears u need to kill fast

[crimson wind]

Such as Ruin 4 and Egi Assaults

[patent citrus]

well if you already used all your weaves why not haha

but i doubt that will happen

[crimson wind]

Ruin 2 IS movement I guess...

But you should never need to use it

[faint flare]

Could nuke some of them down with egi assaults...conserve some and just sic ifirit around

[manic flare]

@crimson wind it's only useful for that one boss in wanderers palace where u need to kill the spears fast

[crimson wind]

Vinyl is the summoner professional here, listen to them

How is that useful tho?

[faint flare]

Ruin still kills faster

Its more damage

Than ruin 2

Unless you cant get the cast finish before the thing dies/jumps away

Or you need to weave/move

Damage isn't coming out faster, its frontloading

[whole wasp]

Its ok for the lasthit i guess

But thats hard to time

[stone niche]

When specializing in a DoH class, does it typically give actions which allow you to easily craft high quality mats? I just got my 3 plaques and want some advice before specializing

[faint flare]

You only get 1 skill for specialist

!action Careful Observation

**Careful Observation** : lvl 55 CRP (0 CP) (0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Specialist Action

Do nothing for one step, preserving the status of any actions presently in effect.

is it worthed to use my crafter soul on culinarian and carpenter?

[faint flare]

If you want

Its extra stats

[patent citrus]

i'm botanist -> cul, car, wvr

[faint flare]

Like 20 Craftsmanship and control and 15 cp

Or something

[crimson wind]

Wait I just realised

[patent citrus]

haven't made any high end yet, does it need those extra stats?

[faint flare]

You can change 3 times a week id you want

No

Not with gear and melds

And food

And pots

[patent citrus]

ok

[crimson wind]

The Ul'dah crafter guilds work with MIN, Gridania BTN, and in Limsa they work with FSH

[faint flare]

You may want it for expert receipes

[crimson wind]

galaxybrain

[faint flare]

[stone niche]

So really I can just use it for any class I havent gotten bis gear for yet

[faint flare]

And ofc careful observation

Aesthete's is BiS for every crafter

You only need 1 set

Does spiritbonding with lvl 80 DoL gear drastically increase when farming lvl 80 mats compared to any lower level mats?

I noticed that mine had been stuck at 1% after an hour of gathering in diadem even with the superior bonding potion?

[patent citrus]

dont think diadem increase spiritbon

[keen fable]

so, i'm practicing this opener, i'm not having enough ninki by bhavacakra at the end of TA to actually use bhav

i'm

15 short

[patent citrus]

i mean gathering in diadem

[keen fable]

every single time, and i can't figure out what i'm doing

[faint flare]

You're not gonna get it without bunshin/meisuo

[stone niche]

I've also spent time gathering outside of diadem as wel

[faint flare]

So you're fine to drop it

[keen fable]

oooh, cause bunshin gives more ninki

that makes sense.

is it okay that i'm at max mudra charges briefly before TA gets to 20s left on cd?

after the opener

[cinder maple]

How do i earn company actions?

[gloomy ice]

Company actions are purchased from your FC's associated GC headquarters with your company credits.

[granite swan]

Anyone learned Frog Legs from Proggos recently? All they do is spam Water and never use it >.>

[cinder maple]

i meant the credits

[gloomy ice]

They use it rarely but yes that's where I learned it from.

[cinder maple]

is there somewhere i can find a breakdown of what activity gains me how much credits?

[gloomy ice]

And company credits are earned by doing basically anything productive. Whether that's running dungeons, crafting, or gathering.

[granite swan]

@gloomy ice As typical, i got one to use it right after >.> only took facetanking Water for 10 min lol

[gloomy ice]

I'm not certain if there's any hard numbers?

[little swift]

Anyone learned Frog Legs from Proggos recently? All they do is spam Water and never use it >.>

what happens if fc switches allegiance with GC? Does it lose all rank with previous gc? and restart from rank 1?

[gloomy ice]

But, yeah, the whole list is: Inviting new members, crafting anything HQ, gathering anything HQ, completing fates, completing duties, completing quests, earning achievements, and earning GC seals.

[hot eagle]

old gc rank is frozen and u start at 0 from your new gc

[cinder maple]

oh okay. so if i was with immortal flames, the rank doesn't go down to 0 when i switch to twin adder?

[gloomy ice]

The more people completing any of these things, the faster you earn.

[hot eagle]

but if u change back later u start at your old rank

[gloomy ice]

And yeah

[tulip plover]

Do you get a hq bonus for leve turn ins

[cinder maple]

What are the perks for switching gc allegiance of the fc??

[faint flare]

Yes

[gloomy ice]

HQ turn ins are always double rewards

Unless it's for a class quest

Mango, there are no perks to changing GC allegiance. Just preference.

[patent citrus]

hmm what's the point of downgrading collectibles

i mean lower the quality, sorry

[gloomy ice]

If it's below score and you want to vendor the result.

Other than that, yeah, there's no need to lower quality

[patent citrus]

ok ty ty

[tawdry nymph]

Question: I want to pay for a friend's "server transfer", but his card is from a credit union and doesn't like PayPal and probably denies the transaction as "unusual activity". I sent him $20 to cover the fee, but can't pay directly with Venmo. Is there some way I can pay for someone else's server transfer? (I remember crysta being an option... Old method?)

[slate arrow]

it still works

[slate crow]

How is Extreme Sephiroth beaten in his second phase? He keeps wiping

[warped nest]

The arm sweep to push everyone off?

You want to kill an add in the south part of the arena

[tribal agate]

should MQL get me to level 50 ?

[warped nest]

It will leave behind a gust

Which will blew you up right as the arm sweep happen

[ember bronze]

is this supposed to happen? i'm 11 piece ilv480 with resistance weapon(485) but my overall gearscore is still 480 o_o

[warped nest]

Yes

[slate crow]

It’s after he color coded attacks.

[warped nest]

It average out

[slate crow]

There’s a line connecting me to him.

[warped nest]

Ahhh

@slate crow gimme 15 seconds to refresh which color debuff is which

Brb

[granite swan]

480 x10 + 485 x2 / 12

[acoustic copper]

can the expanse baleen drop off unsynced bismarck?

[random hollow]

i wonder why the game warns me that "the item will become 1% spirit bond" , as if it was bad somehow?

[acoustic copper]

or was I trying to solo farm this for no reason

[granite swan]

er wait, 13?

[tribal agate]

quick questions guys what would be the best crafting skill to focus on while starting for the first time

[acoustic copper]

for what reason

glamour or money

[hot eagle]

aren't they like rly cheap on markeboard

[acoustic copper]

yeah I think so

I thought about it while i was trying to solo and i was like

is this worth it lol

[warped nest]

@slate crow OK, the line targets player with orange debuff (physical resistance up), and blue debuff (magic resistance up) players should stand on the Northside of the arena, right in front of Sephirot chest to intercept the line

[earnest echo]

Guessing people in the Diadem gotta gear up to get better xp per drop?

[warped nest]

The line will do splash magic damage, so blue debuff player won't get killed by it

[hot eagle]

need probably at last 2 ppl for Bismark because of the adds

[warped nest]

Meanwhile, orange players need to stay all the way south

You can solo Bismarck EX

[slate crow]

So after the tower is gone I need to get as far from him as possible?

[warped nest]

Are you solo or party?

[slate crow]

Party.

We had four people unsync.

[warped nest]

It depends on what debuff you get

Orange debuff can tank physical attacks

Blue debuff can tank magic attacks

[tawdry nymph]

So.. can I gift Crysta somehow...?

[warped nest]

The line will do magic AOE damage to targeted player, so any blue players should walk north to try and intercept as many line as possible

So the magic damage is directed to them instead

If there are orange players with lines, and there aren't enough blue player to save them, just try to stay as far away as possible from other orange players

[acoustic copper]

was asking if solo bismarck ex dropped the baleen

not whether or not it's possible

[warped nest]

quick questions guys what would be the best crafting skill to focus on while starting for the first time
@tribal agate not sure about what you are asking

@acoustic copper is that the thing required to craft stuff?

[acoustic copper]

yeah

[warped nest]

If so, yes, it will drop, just RNG that's all

[acoustic copper]

kk cool ty

lot more rewarding to get things by farming

[warped nest]

Boosted, if you are asking:
I just started a new character, which crafting classes should I pick up to supplement my combat class
Not necessary, you can gear your combat class with dungeon drops. If you insist, the answer is basically all of it, there's no one crafter that supply everything for one specify combat class.

Or
I want to try crafting, which crafting class should I do first
Flip a coin. The recommendation is to level all crafters to be self sufficient in material supplies.

[tribal agate]

ok thank you

[tulip plover]

Do job quests give hq bonus

[acoustic copper]

no

[tulip plover]

Booo

[acoustic copper]

most job quests are HQ required

[tribal agate]

so i should just stick to the main story line for now ? I'm level 17

[warped nest]

Yup

Your gates basically every unlockable contents in game

[tribal agate]

ooh ok!

[warped nest]

One thing, keep up with your Job Quest. If you aren't sure whether you got one or not

Look to the top left of your screen, by default, there should be a red white UI there

[tribal agate]

yea i just finished my level 15 one! 🙂

[warped nest]

If you have any available job quest for your current class, there will an orange exclamation mark beneath it

👌

[tribal agate]

awesome, will I be able to turn my gladiator into a dark knight ?

[warped nest]

To be very specific

You don't need any specific tank to become a DRK

DRK doesn't have a specific prerequisite class

[jade quartz]

Gladiator gets upgraded to paladin at level 30

Dark knight is a separate job unlockable when you get to the first expansion city

[warped nest]

Gladiator (class) becomes Paladin (Job)

Dark Knight is just a tank on its own

[tribal agate]

oh ok, so I would need to make a new character after I unlock DRK ?

[jade quartz]

You can play all jobs on one character

No

[tribal agate]

oooh

shiit, that seems like a lot. would it be more beneficial for me to just ride out guardian and paladin while i learn the game ?

[jade quartz]

So yes you can become a dark knight

[acoustic copper]

mm it's up to you

[jade quartz]

Yeah probably

[warped nest]

Personal preference

[jade quartz]

Would be more straightforward and simple that way

[granite swan]

51/73/74 ... someon slackin

:p

[jade quartz]

Though if you want to try other classes you’re free to try at any time

[warped nest]

I haven't sub for almost 9 months now lol

What Lyon said, this game doesn't punish you for trying

Dont be afraid to try other classes if you are interested in doing so

[acoustic copper]

do note that the fastest way to level a class is through MSQ

so if you ever decide to switch you should try and decide early imo

[warped nest]

Ehhhhhh

[jade quartz]

Meh

[tribal agate]

ahh makes sense

[acoustic copper]

but it's up to you

[warped nest]

It is not that bad to catch up

[jade quartz]

Disagree

[acoustic copper]

yeah it's not terrible

[crisp ether]

i think tanks and heal dungeon queues are faster

[acoustic copper]

harder the further you get in

[warped nest]

Ehhhh

Not really

[tribal agate]

when should I start worrying about dungeons etc ?

[acoustic copper]

grinding past lv60 is kind of a pain but maybe i'm just doing something wrong

spamming dungeons and stuff to level isn't really fun

[jade quartz]

You do dungeons as part of the MSQ

[acoustic copper]

yeah

your first one isn't until level 16 or 17 i think

[warped nest]

when should I start worrying about dungeons etc ?
@tribal agate lvl 15 ish msq will introduce you your first dungeon

[jade quartz]

15

[acoustic copper]

ah mb

[warped nest]

It's on the ballpark

[acoustic copper]

people will usually blast through the early dungeons though so try not to fall behind I guess

[warped nest]

Don't be shy in telling your party member that you are new

[tribal agate]

and just do MSL while I wait for dungeons ?

[acoustic copper]

well you have to do dungeons for MSQ

[warped nest]

Probably no

Your MSQ doesn't progress

[acoustic copper]

so you can do other things like leveling other classes or just hanging out with people until it pops

[warped nest]

Until you clear the dungeon

What Moo said

[acoustic copper]

in terms of queue times i think the fastest goes tank > healer > dps

[jade quartz]

The dungeon is part of the MSQ, it’s an objective

[acoustic copper]

be prepared to wait like 30 minutes for dps queues

[tribal agate]

oh so its not like WoW ?

you just reque the same dungeon

[acoustic copper]

you don't have to requeue the same dungeon no

[jade quartz]

Uh

[acoustic copper]

if you wanna spam it to level then you can

[warped nest]

You can redo dungeons for exp

[jade quartz]

That’s for leveling alt jobs

[warped nest]

But you aren't required to redo dungeons to progress

[tribal agate]

ok i got ya

[acoustic copper]

it's one of the faster ways to level alts but it's not necessary

and by no means the funnest way

[tribal agate]

thank you so much everyone

[ripe hound]

But yeah you have to do it once to progress

[jade quartz]

It’s almost definitely the funnest way

[ripe hound]

What's the funnest way to level?

[warped nest]

Dungeons

[acoustic copper]

dailies

imo

[jade quartz]

That’s not really leveling now is it

[acoustic copper]

nope

LOL

[ripe hound]

Yeah I would say Dailies definitely put less strain on your mental sanity...

[acoustic copper]

leveling is a pain I hate doing it but I do it anyways

[ripe hound]

But yeah, that's more like the default plan

[acoustic copper]

if you have a healer/tank to queue with you to spam dungeons it's way easier

it's just that if you're solo leveling DPS you have like

hours of downtime

[manic flare]

ok the last boss of wanderer's palace hard is fucking impossible with adventure squad

[jade quartz]

Anyway do MSQ and class quests, plus which unlock additional features and content.

[ripe hound]

To be honest DPS solo queue dungeon runs might be the least sanity costing

Like Tank and healers have fast queue, so you would run the same dungeon again and again and again, and quickly burn out

[tribal agate]

Thanks so much everyone, I feel way less confused now lol

[acoustic copper]

np feel free to ask more questions

[jade quartz]

Game will introduce you to most of its concepts pretty well by itself

[ripe hound]

While DPS have long queue times, so you can go around and do Ishgrad Restoration or stuff

[acoustic copper]

yeah that's true

[ripe hound]

But yeah, FF14 is super beginner friendly

[karmic niche]

also at 30 plz

use your class stone

[acoustic copper]

do your job quest at 30

[ripe hound]

Since you just follow MSQ, read the story, and you'll know everything

[jade quartz]

That’s just part of doing class quests really

[ripe hound]

Yeah, do not run around without a class stone after lv 30

[acoustic copper]

the job quest is the quest that's below the MSQ on your quest list

[karmic niche]

well some people doesnt use the stone

[acoustic copper]

it'll come up around every 5 levels

[karmic niche]

for some reason...

[acoustic copper]

that's probably because they forgot to update their gearset

[tribal agate]

will the MSQ take me into the other xpac storylines ?

[acoustic copper]

yea

the MSQ is one long ass story

[jade quartz]

Yes

[acoustic copper]

it goes all the way

[tribal agate]

awesome

[jade quartz]

MSQ is linear story for the whole game

[ripe hound]

I mean not very long, only about 200 hours

[jade quartz]

To level cap and beyond

[ripe hound]

After it's shorted

[acoustic copper]

a lot of my friends end up hitting level cap way before they're even done with MSQ

so they level an alt job to finish it and not waste xp

it's up to you whether or not you wanna do that though

[ripe hound]

Yeah it definitely happens

[acoustic copper]

happens a lot if you do dailies but don't spam MSQ much

[ripe hound]

I do it the other way around, I decide a DPS job I want to sync up with MSQ

[tribal agate]

shit nothing to worry about then, wasnt sure if I would be running around doing side quests to hit levels to continue the MSQ

[ripe hound]

Then use dailies to level up other stuff, like GNB and stuff

That's what I did for ShB

[jade quartz]

Sidequests are last resort for leveling

[ripe hound]

Sidequests are more for the experience of playing them

[jade quartz]

You do daily dungeon roulettes for a big chunk, then spam highest level dungeon

[ripe hound]

They don't really give viable experience

[jade quartz]

Uh

Recheck that last sentence lol

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[jade quartz]

There ya go

[ripe hound]

Much better lol

Like there are definitely some side quests that are really fun experiences

Like... what is that one called? Hilbrand?

[jade quartz]

That’s a blue quest

[ripe hound]

Hildibrand questline

But yeah

[acoustic copper]

for the most part you can ignore but you should be doing

[ripe hound]

Will hildibrand probably continue for ShB?

[acoustic copper]

unlock extra content that you're probably gonna wanna do eventually

[jade quartz]

Nah

[acoustic copper]

unless you really don't care

[jade quartz]

Yoshida's commented that they'll be giving him a rest for this expac

[ripe hound]

There are quite a few that don't give anything tough

[acoustic copper]

titles and such i guess

[jade quartz]

all blue quests give something

[ripe hound]

Sad...

[acoustic copper]

might as well right lol

[jade quartz]

or lead to something.

[ripe hound]

Oh, something like titles also I guess

[jade quartz]

if it doesn't give anything, it's a prerequisite for something that does give something.

[random hollow]

how does commendation work?

[jade quartz]

No, there aren't blue quests that just give titles and nothing else.

[ripe hound]

Hun?

[jade quartz]

Quests that give titles and nothing else are yellow.

[ripe hound]

I did a random blue quest chain in ShB

[jade quartz]

If it doesn't seem to give anything, then it's a prerequisite for something.

[ripe hound]

Didn't give me anything

I mean I finished the whole quest chain

[jade quartz]

Prerequisite for one of the beast tribes probably

Was it Rak'tika sidequest chain?

[ripe hound]

It's a small story continuing... one of the aether currents...?

Oh my

Let me check

[jade quartz]

Or Kholusia?

[ripe hound]

It's in Kholusia

[jade quartz]

Prerequisite for dwarves.

[ripe hound]

The story is ||trying to force a guy to be the mayor or something||

[warped nest]

how does commendation work?
@random hollow at the end of dungeons, trials, or raids, players can give other players commendation (assuming they didn't queue in together with a pre-made party)

[jade quartz]

Yeah, that's a prerequisite for dwarves.

[edgy echo]

I finally got back into FFXIV to begin Heavensward after a few months and actually having the time and patience to download the rest of the game. Should I be doing the roulettes? I remember someone advising to do them.

[ripe hound]

Oh my god

[robust crow]

yep definitely a pre-req

[ripe hound]

I see

I see

[robust crow]

xay, the roulettes are very efficient exp

[warped nest]

@edgy echo leveling, msq, and alliance roulette are good source of exp.

[ripe hound]

So all must give something?

[warped nest]

Take note that the bonus exp are once per day

[jade quartz]

@edgy echo roulettes give a big chunk of exp every day. While doing the MSQ you don't necessarily have to do tham, as MSQ gives just about enough exp to get to level cap by itself.

[warped nest]

So don't grind it

[robust crow]

if your intention is to level classes, the roulettes are the best source of exp

once per day

[jade quartz]

Yes, all unlock content or features.

[ripe hound]

Nice

I should go around and clear them a bit

Also I think MSQ Roulette don't really give a lot of exp per time spent inside. But if you treat it as Netflix Roulette it gives a fuckton of exp

[robust crow]

no, msq is huge

if you get prae

[ripe hound]

Hun?

[robust crow]

if you get castrum then it's significantly less exp

but prae is a huge amount of exp

[ripe hound]

But yeah... it is quite some exp

[edgy echo]

Noted. I’ll keep that in mind. Thank you very much for the answers.

[ripe hound]

Like usually a bar for even lv 60 or 70

[jade quartz]

MSQ roulette exp is gigantic

because it takes so long.

The exp is very much appropriate for the amount of time it takes.

That's the only reason it's so huge.

[robust crow]

by far the most time efficient are MSQ, leveling, and alliance raid

[ripe hound]

But yeah, I always though MSQ roulette gives about the same as Alliance. Both take about an hour though.

[robust crow]

no

alliance usually takes 20 minutes

[acoustic copper]

alliance is usually faster

yeah

[jade quartz]

MSQ gives a lot more exp

[ripe hound]

20 min!?

[robust crow]

MSQ roulette takes 40 (for prae) and gives way more exp

[ripe hound]

Dafuq

[jade quartz]

plus poetics

[pine phoenix]

I'm confused about hunts and strong enemies in the wild, if there's a really strong enemy but it's not part of a hunt board do I get anything from killing it?

[leaden ginkgo]

if I download ACT for self improvement and not harass anyone about DPS, would I get banned?

Just wanna practice with it

[jade quartz]

@pine phoenix so, there are different types of elite hunt marks. B ranks are the kind you get off the hunt board "elite marks" option

[robust crow]

tens of thousands of people parse, dan

you won't get banned if you don't harass people

don't ask, don't tell

[jade quartz]

they're passive, and are always up somewhere in the zone (they take about 5 minutes to respawn in the zone after being killed).

[ripe hound]

Usually if you harass people even if you don't ACT they will ban you

But yeah, generally it's not recommend to shittalk people's DPS numbers

[acoustic copper]

Im actually gonna kms

[jade quartz]

A ranks and S ranks are large and aggressive. They give rewards just for being killed. No hunt board stuff is required.

B ranks are intended for solo players, whereas A ranks and S ranks require groups

(A ranks and S ranks from earlier expansions not included--e.g. level 80 players can solo level 50 A ranks easily)

A ranks respawn in 4-6 hours. S ranks have much longer timers, and also have specific spawn conditions which must be fulfilled, some of which are pretty obscure.

[ripe hound]

Also although no one will punish you if you do so, try not to kill A/S Ranks in ShB areas.
Train conductors will be somewhat pissed

[jade quartz]

I mean

you won't be successful without at least one full party anyway

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[robust crow]

it's going to take you like 10 minutes to kill an A rank with just one full party lol

[karmic niche]

how to i make my hotkey invisible if there is no abilities in it?

[robust crow]

maybe longer

[pine phoenix]

I see a L50 in Coerthas rn, I'm L77 Sam not sure if I can solo it?

[ripe hound]

Sure, go ahead, worse case is you die

I mean, probably

Also join https://discord.gg/aetherhunts after you reach lv 80, completed MSQ, and unlocked all flying in ShB

[jade quartz]

@karmic niche Character Configuration > Hotbar Settings > Display > Hide Unassigned Slots

[pine phoenix]

Nvm it was pretty easy and I got my first hunts seals!

[ripe hound]

Congrats!

[acoustic copper]

damn how rare is this baleen

:(

[plain python]

to rank up chocobo past 10, I need a house?

[pine phoenix]

Joined the server!

Storm blood flying isn't as important right? There 2 Ala migo areas I really don't want to get flying for because I think they're really boring and aether currents are tedious

[jade quartz]

uh

[pine phoenix]

I've got them all for Kugane zones and I plan to get them all for ShB

[jade quartz]

you should get flying everywhere really

[little swift]

flying should be something you grab everywhere

[jade quartz]

and get them during MSQ

that way it's not a chore later

[robust crow]

you don't need a house @plain python

you just need a stable

[jade quartz]

most aether currents are near the MSQ main path

[little swift]

its super inconvenient otherwise when you return later and can't fly

[robust crow]

an apartment will do

you need to feed the chocobo thavnairian onion

[pine phoenix]

Too late, I'm in ShB and I'm missing The Lochs and The Peaks

[robust crow]

your FC house may have a stable too

[jade quartz]

Whenever you wanna come back to zones for beast tribes, hunts, treasure maps or various other stuff

you'll kick yourself for not having flying

you'll basically be unable to participate in that stuff

[ripe hound]

Usually is Alliance considered harder or Normal Raids?

[jade quartz]

it's not a big deal

@ripe hound neither

[plain python]

my house and FC house are separated, right?

[jade quartz]

they're both casual content

[robust crow]

both depend on which fight you get

[jade quartz]

yes @plain python

[ripe hound]

About the same level of casual?

[robust crow]

if you don't get CT for alliance raid, then it will take significantly longer

[plain python]

worth to get an apartment before I can afford a house? Or should just go straight house?

[jade quartz]

not really true

Mhachi raids are about as long

[robust crow]

if you don't get eden normal for normal raid, then it's pretty easy

[ripe hound]

Yeah I was mostly thinking about Eden Normal compared to Nier raids

[robust crow]

i mean

[acoustic copper]

@pine phoenix just get a friend to fly you to the nodes

it's way easier that wya

[little swift]

eden normal isn't particularly difficult either

[robust crow]

most people aren't running normal raid/alliance raid roulette at 80

[pine phoenix]

Mmm, maybe I'll try to get someone with a 2seat mount to help me get the currents later

[acoustic copper]

what data center are you on

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I'm just randomly thinking

I guess they are about the same difficulty then

[pine phoenix]

Aether

[mellow fossil]

do i need the yokai watch on to get legendary medals?

[acoustic copper]

which areas do you need?

[robust crow]

normal raid is obviously shorter

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[pine phoenix]

The peaks and the lochs

[acoustic copper]

kk I'm gonna do limitless blue solo one more time but i can help afterwards

[pine phoenix]

Missing 3 in peaks and 8 in l9chs

[ripe hound]

Like they are both definitely a lot less brain dead compared to lv 80 "expert" dungeons

[pine phoenix]

Omg thank u so much!

[acoustic copper]

np

[robust crow]

expert dungeons are pretty easy too though

[acoustic copper]

have nothing better to do anyways

[proud willow]

You don't need to Yokai Watch equipped to get the legendaries

[ripe hound]

I mean expert dungeons are pretty much brain dead

[jade quartz]

yeah after you have all the minions you can dump the watch in armoire

weapons just need the minion out

[ripe hound]

Where Nier / Eden Normal throws a lot of stuff at you, however most mechnics don't kill you

[random hollow]

omg i dont need the watch lol ....all this time suffering XD

[pine phoenix]

Just finishing up a few job quests rn but DM me whenever ur ready, not gonna hop into a dungeon or anything

[acoustic copper]

i've been here fore the collab 3 times

and not once have i done the fates

lmao

[ripe hound]

I collected all the minions because I want to start playing Verminion one day

Haven't started yet though

Does anyone know any Verminion discords?

Yeah, I mean I think Verminion is first introduced with Yokai event?

So I think they should go together really well

[jade quartz]

Nah, Verminion came out in 3.1

[acoustic copper]

god fucking damnit

okay whatever i'll feel bad for stalling

@pine phoenix which world are you on i'll meet you there

[plain python]

send some shield destroyer and spam crystal destroyer

[pine phoenix]

Sarg

[acoustic copper]

kk i'll meet you at peaks first then

[pine phoenix]

Okie!

[ripe hound]

Wait Yokai came out after Verminion?

[twilit schooner]

Is there a way where i press my s button to run backwards instead of slowly backwalking?

[acoustic copper]

change your camera setting to legacy

@twilit schooner

[jade quartz]

Yeah Yo-kai event was like

3.35?

[pine phoenix]

At the Ala ghir aethetyte

[jade quartz]

3.38?

The first run that is

[ripe hound]

And I am really surprised that was the only time Yokai ran, before this

[jade quartz]

it ran twice before this.

[ripe hound]

Like, I swear I remember it ran twice before

hun?

[plain python]

why changing camera to legacy? :d

[ripe hound]

Was 2018's ran missing on this: https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Seasonal_Events

[jade quartz]

Legacy mode = press direction and run in that direction

[ripe hound]

Yeah it did ran again in 2017

[pine phoenix]

Yup that's me!

[twilit schooner]

change your camera setting to legacy
@acoustic copper Thanks!

[jade quartz]

Standard mode = turning on the spot/strafing, and backpedaling

[acoustic copper]

oh wait

that is

OK

[twilit schooner]

legacy is much better no?

[jade quartz]

Legacy mode is probably more intuitive for most players

[pine phoenix]

Sorry I don't k oe hwo to respond to messages yet lol

[acoustic copper]

join party and right click me "ride pillion"

[ripe hound]

A lot of us prefer Legacy

[jade quartz]

Standard is oldschool MMO controls

the controls WoW still uses

[ripe hound]

Also can you do everything in Legacy?

[jade quartz]

both are totally viable

[ripe hound]

I'm thinking about e7s

[plain python]

hm, I like seeing my Lalafell backpedalling so maybe later

[jade quartz]

but standard probably requires some familiarity with it

yeah absolutely

Most people would say Legacy is better

[ripe hound]

When people say sometimes they need standard it's because of e7s right?

[jade quartz]

I use standard myself

[ripe hound]

Hun

[robust crow]

has anyone said they need standard?

[jade quartz]

er

[robust crow]
