[vital ruin]

I'll play in this stupid ass data centre

[open ember]

i would just say change your payment method

[vital ruin]

Change it to what

[open ember]

a different card

it may not like that card youre using

[vital ruin]

I don't know a lot of people with cards
We usually deal with hard cash

[open ember]

i would help you out if i could

with my own card

but thats not a good idea

[vital ruin]

And I won't be able to get credit card since I'm a college student

Nope

Anyway thanks for helping

[open ember]

because ive transferred and no issues but i transfered within datacenters

[vital ruin]

I'll figure this out on my own

[open ember]

good luck

[plain python]

does the game remember you have unique item in Chocobo saddle?

[leaden ginkgo]

at what level do you start etting poetics btw

i forgot

[open ember]

which item u looking for?

[faint flare]

Lv50

[open ember]

type: /isearch [item name]

in the chat

[leaden ginkgo]

ty vinyl

[strange coral]

You can have a unique item in your chocobo bag and regular bag at the same time if that's what you're asking. Also retainers. I use them that way to keep multiples of the same treasure maps.

[plain python]

nice

[elder sinew]

how do you unlock the Duty Roulette: Expert?

[granite swan]

Huh, i would of assumed saddle would count as personal inventory since you can pretty much access it anywhere

[open ember]

theres certain dunegons to finish for expert roulette

[granite swan]

I think expert needs 5 lv 80 dungeons

[strange coral]

Expert currently requires MSQ progression

[elder sinew]

Finished MSQ up to Shb

[faint flare]

Expert is always the 2 most recently added dungeon

Which is both by FULL MSQ completion

Including post Shb

As both recent dungeons are in the post Shb MSQ

[elder sinew]

Ah, didnt want to go that far yet, k

[granite swan]

Do you get the same 6 options when you tried to do a transfer?

[keen fable]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/recipe/c5d7c1c4ab8/ How do I get this recipe?

[gusty storm]

is there like a armor piece thats like the ribbon you get from the achievements guy, but different color

if you know what i mean

[keen fable]

nevermind, found it

[remote lintel]

there are some for monk

[silent zodiac]

Is there a job that stands out as being particularly complex compared to the others?

[untold sand]

um when it says sub for 30 days for the friendship circlet? do i have to have an entire month of days accumulated? or just order subbed?

[mint oriole]

summoner may have the most buttons to press? but imo none of them are really that complex compared to the rest.

[silent zodiac]

watching some videos it looks like Machinist gets pretty advanced at level cap

lots of off gcd stuff

[mint oriole]

mch is a lot of fun

[faint flare]

Machinist is prerty straightforward

The ogcd stuff is just gauss and richochet cooldown being reduced by Heat blast

So you end up using that often

[remote lintel]

machinist isn't hard at all

it has the least buttons

[faint flare]

Hypercharge is decently flexible

[open coral]

MCH isn't hard, but it's punished the hardest by high ping.

[keen fable]

um when it says sub for 30 days for the friendship circlet? do i have to have an entire month of days accumulated? or just order subbed?
@untold sand it is amount of days purchased, not played under sub

[silent zodiac]

Is it a common thing in this game to lag? I see people say that alot

[faint flare]

Not particularly

[untold sand]

well then idfk even how many days of my standard edition free time is left cuz i started the plan lol

and even then i havent really received the mail thingy or is that when free time runs out?

[keen fable]

what?

if you used a friend code, you have to purchase subscription days to get rewards

i.e. the friendship circlet

[untold sand]

standard ffxiv edition 30 days. increased to like 44-45days cuz the day long patch. subbed when i have like 20 days i believe. but i asume the transaction wasnt made cuz my days didnt run out?

[keen fable]

no, you have to purchase subscription days

not the game

[untold sand]

yes i subbed

i was refering if the sub transaction was made after 30 days is off

cuz now that i started a plan

idk what time i have left

lol

[keen fable]

you can view remaining time on your subscription on mogstation

[remote lintel]

if they didn't send you an email saying you purchased it then it didn't go through yet

[vocal shell]

did you make your char on a preferred server

[low shore]

Anyone got a good guide for racing chocobo breeding?

[crimson wind]

Which Edenchoir fending pieces are tenacity?

[frigid cedar]

Are there any quests that aren't included in ARR 's new game plus

?

[twilit arch]

chest, boots, earrings, wrist, ring @crimson wind

[granite swan]

@untold sand If you did on pref server and got the 15 bonus days, you gotta wait for those to be used up also >.>

[crimson wind]

rip

guess I'm not getting the chestpiece

[keen fable]

y not

[crimson wind]

Because tenacity is shit

when Aug Crystarium has...crit det?

[keen fable]

just edit the game files lul

[frigid cedar]

Is it a common thing in this game to lag? I see people say that alot
@silent zodiac I play with 200 ms so lag is a part of me

[silent zodiac]

Going back to my previous question,is monk overtly complex? People meme that it is the most complicated job

at 80

[untold sand]

@granite swan ty

[remote lintel]

no

monk is easy

[wispy parcel]

Monk is easy but it takes a bit more effort to be as effective with it when compaired to the other melee dps

Which is why its getting a rework in 5.4

[crimson wind]

Monk has a few nice ways to avoid positionals as well

[silent zodiac]

@wispy parcel What do you mean a rework? to what extent?

[faint flare]

They only told us they'll be reworking greased lightning and how it works, which would require a whole class rework ad mnk revolves around it

[wet spade]

hey y'all, im leveling up my THM to eventually play some Black Mage and was wondering what you guys think is the most entertaining way to level. I've been queueing up for whatever dungeon i can after eating some eggs and doing FATEs when possible but I wanted to know if The Deep was worth it

have never ran it before

[remote lintel]

highest level dungeon

roulettes

[calm phoenix]

Why does my wife get +80% for rest XP and I always only gotten +50%?

[wet spade]

I get a lot of downtime inbetween queues as a DPS so i guess i keep on doing quests

[remote lintel]

its probably something else over the rested exp

[wet spade]

im used to Healer queues xd

[tame plinth]

during the sephirot extreme fight, how does blue take the tethers?

[wispy parcel]

Probably armoury bonus + rested xp

[remote lintel]

tethers go to the colored tower iirc

[twilit arch]

80% wouldn't be armoury bonus. since armoury is 100/50%

and rested is 50%

[faint flare]

If you're taking tethers then you just sit infront of the boss and wiggle around until you get one

[halcyon glen]

Probably brand new ring

That’s the easiest and most obvious 30% buff

[twilit arch]

yea thats more likely

[wispy parcel]

Oh yea theres that

[halcyon glen]

The shown exp bonus is the sum of all bonuses to exp

So 80% is likely 50% from Rested plus 30% from the Brand New Ring @calm phoenix

None of the other bonuses I can think of make sense for those numbers

[twilit juniper]

what are some good ways to spend gil? i’m on free trial and i just hit gil cap

[remote lintel]

gear for other classes

food

[wispy parcel]

There isnt much worth while to spend gil on in the low levels

[young fjord]

Yeah, and as you can't use market you don't really have access to any glamour either

[twilit juniper]

ah ok i’ll be upgrading to full as soon as i finish ARR

[lean yarrow]

ooh does anyone know which chocobo barding is the gold tools or weapons?

[young fjord]

It's the new one from Ex

[halcyon glen]

I've been suggesting gyshal greens and grapes @twilit juniper

[remote lintel]

true barding of light

[wispy parcel]

SoS Extreme

Relatively easy trial to farm

[halcyon glen]

once you learn it yeah

[twilit juniper]

@halcyon glen got it! ty :)

[halcyon glen]

Grapes can be replaced with any cheap food

[cedar compass]

Do all beast tribes give mounts?

[faint flare]

Yes

[whole wasp]

Yes

Only anata gives two mounts

The rest one mount each

[soft tundra]

I hit trial gil cap recently as well, just bought 500 greens for max chocobo uptime

[cedar compass]

I have 2m Gil, should I buy an apartment or wait and save for a house?

[wispy parcel]

Getting a house is exceedingly difficult

Personally Id just spring for an apartment

[twilit arch]

unless you're willing to log in the moment the servers come up after 5.35 maintenance, getting an apartment is going to be a lot less painful

[frigid cedar]

Is there a website where I can check all the text from a quest I missed due to buying a story skip?

[crimson wind]

Where did you skip to

[frigid cedar]

(note this was for an alt I made while I still had a main character)

I can't do it with my main now because I deleted him

[strange coral]

Garland DB has all dialog and objectives for quests I think

[frigid cedar]

thanks!

[bold rain]

i wanna do this quest but

i dont know what to do

[strange coral]

It should say when you click on him

To use the /me emote or something

Or in the quest objective

[bold rain]

well

[crimson wind]

Look at the quest

[strange coral]

Also target him when you do it

[noble kiln]

Hello can anyone help me on why I can't transfer my character to a different. Server?

I'm a returning player

[faint flare]

If you're trying to transfer to congested server, you flat out cant

[noble kiln]

What if I don't see the character at all to choose to transfer?

[granite swan]

What server are you on and what server are you trying to goto?

oh

[bold rain]

welp

[noble kiln]

I'm from Moogle and trying to go to gungnir, friends want to play on a different server

Hmmm. It should be fine.

[crimson wind]

Bards use Warden's Paean for E8S right?

[agile laurel]

yeah, iirc it works for at least icelit

but you need to use it like esuna, pre-applying it doesn't work

[crimson wind]

That's...weird

[noble kiln]

No it's level 70 btw

An old character stopped playing...

Anyway making a new char instead

So let me. Change the question

Scholar or whitemage which is the best healer right now?

[faint flare]

Both

!faq meta

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

[crimson wind]

wait, where's the old meta faq

[faint flare]

Its like backupmeta

Or something

Or metameme

[lavish vortex]

hi!, i just saw this in a guide, what is it? how do i unlock it? what do i have to do to get the 500 poetics?

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

[crimson wind]

@lavish vortex

[lavish vortex]

thanks!!

apparently i already unlocked it

[heady bramble]

Does purchasing the Yukata off mogstation technically yield you with all colours? I see an option to trade it in at the Calamity salvager, but dunno if the mogstation ones are tradeable

[raven sage]

That's for acquiring the male/female counterpart

So no you only have the one color

[heady bramble]

ahhh

[hollow mango]

Hii I was wondering if people really don't play older content anymore like tougher trial,dungeon and raids? Cause yesterday some people suggested that I should just go max level then comeback later unsync( for striking tree extreme)

Is it the same for heavensward trial, dungeons and raids?

[granite swan]

Really depends on why you are doing it, if its for story vs just wanting loot from it

[lavish vortex]

so...when i click in the wondrous tails journal, is says it expired and i have to talk to Khloe Aliapoh to receive a new one, but when i go talk to Khloe Aliapoh, i only get the option to make custom deliveries, what shoul i do to get a new Wondrous Tails journal?

[granite swan]

discard the old one and she should give you a new one

[hollow mango]

Well it was fun back then right? @granite swan

So its like I wanna atleast try some

or like try all of it

[remote lintel]

khloe doesnt do custom deliveries

[whole wasp]

You are looking for zhloe

Not khloe

[lavish vortex]

@granite swan did that, still only custom delivery options

[whole wasp]

The tiny catgirl behind the stands

[remote lintel]

thats zhloe

not khloe

[crimson wind]

@hollow mango do extremes unsynced

[lavish vortex]

ohhh, i see, thanks!!

[crimson wind]

dungeons, HM trials and raids, do whatcha want

[whole wasp]

This girl

[hollow mango]

hmmm

so people still play those trials raids and dungeons

that are available for heavensward?

[crimson wind]

yes, not by choice

because roulettes

[remote lintel]

not extremes

they just unsync extremes

[crimson wind]

Extremes are in mentor roulette

If you queue for extremes tho, mentors will kill you

[hollow mango]

I see

[whole wasp]

Mentors are more likely to kill themselves first

[crimson wind]

You're on JP right?

Mentors are more likely to kill themselves first
@whole wasp not inaccurate

[granite swan]

they secretly go BLU and bomb you and themselves ;p

[whole wasp]

Because most sprouts have no idea whats going on to accept any guidance pre 50

[crimson wind]

I queued for Shiva extreme once when I was a sprout

I just quit

[whole wasp]

Same but i queued ramuh extreme

Tank was mentor so it was doable.

[crimson wind]

Did you wait?

[whole wasp]

Yup.

[crimson wind]

[remote lintel]

i didnt know you werent supposed to queue savages at first so i queued for e1s

and i waited as well

[crimson wind]

when did you guys start playing, anyway

anyway, topic

[remote lintel]

end of january

[inland zenith]

I queued Thordan extreme once

[strange coral]

I queued for shiva EX too when I young. We gave it a few tries then people started dropping and so I did too.

[remote lintel]

i feel like its a rite of passage at this point

[crimson wind]

pretty much

[hollow mango]

I wanna atleast try the tougher raids trials and dungeons for hw atleast once

but i should find people first right?

[errant rock]

so... im no longer in the novice network and now im lonely

[crimson wind]

Are there synced level 60 extreme parties now because of free trial

[hollow mango]

well

striking tree extreme there was

and there was 0 communication when i tried

[remote lintel]

get to max lvl and solo them

[hollow mango]

but I wanted the ones for hw since more skills

[little swift]

Its quite possible that you queued in with 7 other sprouts so no one knew what to do

[hollow mango]

yes we were all sprouts

[remote lintel]

just unsync

[little swift]

So no communication

Put up a pf if you want to do it synced

[hollow mango]

@remote lintel it wasn't for i just wanna clear for the sake of it

i meant i wanna atleast experience them

[crimson wind]

Did people DF extremes back in the day?

[hollow mango]

[remote lintel]

experience the higher level EXs

[crimson wind]

To be fair...Extremes aren't really...extreme

They're kinda ezpz

[hollow mango]

[remote lintel]

depends

[crimson wind]

Well, now at least

[little swift]

Df culture isn't in na or eu

[whole wasp]

It goes dungeon > alliance > extreme > savage > ultimate

[crimson wind]

Ofc, it'll be different for different players

[whole wasp]

Most people are in savage arounds or pre savage

[crimson wind]

Yeah but extreme is a huge step down from savage

[hollow mango]

are there savage and ultimate for HW? @whole wasp

[crimson wind]

Which makes progressing really weird

[whole wasp]

Yes

[remote lintel]

theres savage for every expac

[whole wasp]

Savage for the alexander raids

[hollow mango]

yea those i wanna atleast try those even once

[whole wasp]

And extreme is ultima weapon?

[remote lintel]

then do the current savage

when you get to 80

[hollow mango]

butttt

u don't get me

[little swift]

Yeah but extreme is a huge step down from savage
@crimson wind this isn't true either

[calm phoenix]

My wife cannot use her miner class. It does not let her gather anything. However, another player can gather at literally the same spot that she tried. Does anybody know what the problem is? She wants to try it before it is my turn with the PC at 4 PM EDT

[little swift]

There's a lot of overlap in difficulty

[remote lintel]

i mean you can try to get a party for older savage

[crimson wind]

I'm not totally sure about that channy

[hollow mango]

would u watch a season 3 anime because its good and skip the frirst 2 @remote lintel

[remote lintel]

did she equip the pickaxe @calm phoenix

[hollow mango]

yea i guess ill find a party

[young fjord]

@calm phoenix You need to be within 5 levels of the node to see it

[remote lintel]

thats not how it works

[calm phoenix]

Yes she did

[little swift]

Some savages are easier than some extremes

[remote lintel]

the raids dont go in order

theyre not connected

[hollow mango]

but like you could still learn stuff?

[remote lintel]

not really

[whole wasp]

Theres not much continuity of raids between expansions

[narrow vale]

Anyone know the mission at the 2:24-2:26 mark in this trailer

https://youtu.be/EEDVcrwnlJ4

[calm phoenix]

She would not have had the miner class if she was not equpped

[whole wasp]

Mechanics in raids are also mostly unique

[remote lintel]

what carl said before

[crimson wind]

@narrow vale gimme a sec

[raw solstice]

as mentioned, you have to be certain levels to see the node

[remote lintel]

need to be in level

[raw solstice]

also you need to have an offhand tool equipped for certain nodes as well

[calm phoenix]

How do level one people mine then?

[remote lintel]

@narrow vale it looks like bozja

[crimson wind]

@narrow vale Memoria Misera EX

[raw solstice]

you go hit the lowest level nodes from your gathering log

[remote lintel]

oh 5.2

[whole wasp]

Look for lvl 1-5 nodes and mine.

[remote lintel]

thought it was 5.3

[crimson wind]

When does Cerberus learn to read

[whole wasp]

Walk out of uldah from either gate and there should be low level nodes

[granite swan]

@calm phoenix The Miner quests should take her or tell her where the nodes are she should aim for

[crimson wind]

Will we see the WoD change jobs in 5.4

Since DRK doesn't really make sense anymore

[narrow vale]

What kind storyline is that?

[crimson wind]

Relic storyline

[narrow vale]

Thank you

[crimson wind]

for the current tier

We get expanded relic storyline in the next patch

[remote lintel]

who knows

[leaden ginkgo]

Yeah but extreme is a huge step down from savage
@crimson wind tbf

Sos ex

Is probably near than 5s

Cause rhat shit ez

[crimson wind]

The only hard part about SoSEX imo is adds

and quintup

[narrow vale]

I’m not touching any EX at all lol beyond hard nope

[crimson wind]

E5S has multiple mechs that will kill you if one of you fucks up

[leaden ginkgo]

That doesn't make it hard

Tbf

The mechanics are easy as shit

[little swift]

That doesnt mean tge mechanics themselves are difficult

[leaden ginkgo]

Also thats not true

[crimson wind]

I find e5s to be harder than 7 and 6

[little swift]

Punishing =/= difficulty

[leaden ginkgo]

Yikes

7s is easy

But 5s is so baseline

[crimson wind]

Well it's the first floot

floor

whaddya expect

[leaden ginkgo]

Ez

[crimson wind]

ur ez

[leaden ginkgo]

Yeah

I am

[crimson wind]

hate to be that guy but

[twilit arch]

this isn't #general-discussion

[crimson wind]

topic?

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh shit

My bad

[rotund sable]

is there a good eureka guide we got lying around?

[twilit arch]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/hed93l/the_way_to_eureka_in_52/

tyvm

[mortal wigeon]

https://youtu.be/WRm0qOYgmms?t=1140

Anyone know what song plays at this timestamp?

It sounds like a remix of the alexander temporal stasis theme that I've never heard before

[slate arrow]

ultimate unique remix

[leaden ginkgo]

hey I bought an item in store (angel wings and halo) but I can't see it delivered with the mog cat?

I logged out and logged in twice already

it says 10 seconds?

I checked purchase history says I paid

[slate arrow]

is it account wide or per character

account wide items can take up to a few hours to be applied

[calm phoenix]

My wife is at where the gathering log says to be yet she still cannot use the pickaxe. Does anybody know what the problem could be?

[slate arrow]

did she do the mining class unlock quest

and is she high enough level to use the pickaxe

[calm phoenix]

Yes she did

[leaden ginkgo]

says single character

Can someone tell me the difference between Eos and Selene Scholar fairies?

[slate arrow]

@leaden ginkgo wait a few minutes and then try request mail delivery at the mail moogle

@leaden ginkgo there is none

[leaden ginkgo]

I def paid for it? maybe I need to reload limsa nominsa?

@slate arrow What?

[calm phoenix]

She would not have miner unlocked if she did not do the quest

[slate arrow]

there is no difference

[leaden ginkgo]

oh you have to request the cat to do something?

I thought it just automatically does it

Then what is the point of having two fairies?

it says "you have no mail" when I talk to it

[opal bough]

Is the manufactured coin also capped at once a week?

[slate arrow]

@leaden ginkgo lore

[calm phoenix]

So nobody knows?

[slate arrow]

@opal bough only the puppets bunker

[raw solstice]

why do you assume nobody knows

there's a few other people asking questions and being answered at the same time

[leaden ginkgo]

Well that's a bummer.

[raw solstice]

what specifically are you trying to gather, and what coordinates are you at

[slate arrow]

@calm phoenix the only reason she cannot equip the pickaxe is if she hasn't done the quest or isn't high enough level

[calm phoenix]

I never said she could not equip it. There are no places for her to use it

[slate arrow]

Then her mining level isn't high enough to see the node

[raw solstice]

or not at the right spot specifically

[agile laurel]

or y'know there's no nodes to see

[slate arrow]

When MIN is level 1, the only mining nodes available are the ones right outside the city states

[agile laurel]

cause you do have to actually look for them

[slate arrow]

you can't skip to higher level nodes without leveling up

[calm phoenix]

According to the gathering log, that is one of two places she can go

[agile laurel]

yes

broadly

[raw solstice]

it's not always going to be smack dab in the center of where the gathering log points you to

[slate arrow]

She needs to look around the entire region or use the mining node locator ability

[raw solstice]

it's just giving you a general area of where you're going to be gathering

[untold sand]

how do i cancel retainer sub?

[leaden ginkgo]

@slate arrow how do you ask the cat to deliver? I see no option

[raw solstice]

that's why I asked what item is she looking to gather and what coordinates is she at? You can look up the item pretty easily online too and it'll give exact coordinates of where to gather, instead of pointing to a general area

[calm phoenix]

She cannot find it anywhere.

[slate arrow]

@leaden ginkgo Moogle > one of the buttons on the top of the UI box

[faint flare]

I think the class npc even says where abouts the nodes for the first quest area

[raw solstice]

they do yeah

it gets a bit cozier when you get to level 3 since you have lay of the land, which will point you more directly to the nearest node you can gather from in a zone

but until then you have to kind of search around a little, or google

[leaden ginkgo]

@slate arrow ?

[raw solstice]

in the areas it lists

[leaden ginkgo]

like signing in the site?

[untold sand]

anyone?

[calm phoenix]

She does not like how even tame monsters aggro her when she is a gatherer

[slate arrow]

only mobs with the blue icon are tame

if you right click and auto attack, of couse they won't be tame

[calm phoenix]

I know and that is all that is around her.

[slate arrow]

:hmmm:

[faint flare]

Then they wont attack

[raw solstice]

@untold sand on mogstation, your account -> retainer service

[calm phoenix]

Which I assume you cannot as a gatherer

[raw solstice]

you can initiate auto attacks as crafter/gatherer

[slate arrow]

no, you can still trigger auto attacks

[faint flare]

Mobs can aggro you and kill you if they're hostile, and that

You get stealth later which makes it a non issue

[calm phoenix]

She searched literally everywhere labeled Hammerlea and outside it and she cannot find a node anywhere

[faint flare]

Does she have prospect on

Big thing

[raw solstice]

it should automatically turn on but yeah it's possible to toggle off

oh sorry that's a level 2 trait

[faint flare]

Not low levels iirc

Yeah lv1 need to turn it on manually

Turn on Prospect and look again

It lets you see nodes

[calm phoenix]

She still cannot find anything

[raw solstice]

@leaden ginkgo interact with a postmoogle in-game, in that dialog box there's a box in the upper right to "request delivery"

[faint flare]

Go looking with Prospect on

[raw solstice]

what specifically is she looking to gather

[calm phoenix]

She did

[raw solstice]

like, give me a name of an item

[faint flare]

Should be copper ore for the first miner quest?

[leaden ginkgo]

for squadrons, does it matter who i enlist or should i just choose the highest level recruit?

[raw solstice]

sure, copper ore is fine. Western Thanalan, 26.8, 25.7

[slate arrow]

Highest Level until max level

[faint flare]

It doesn't matter unless you have chemistries for specific races or jobs, but you can change their jobs

[calm phoenix]

Here's where it says

[lone spruce]

Wait so how do you glamour your egi so it looks like a carbuncle?

[slate arrow]

then you want to make your squads based on best chemistries

[lone spruce]

I heard it was a level 50 quest

[faint flare]

Yes

[slate arrow]

@lone spruce Arcanist Guild after level 50 job quest

[lone spruce]

I also heard it was at the arcanists' guild but I don't see it

[raw solstice]

go to the coordinates I posted

[leaden ginkgo]

whats max lvl for squads?

[slate arrow]

60

[leaden ginkgo]

thx

[lone spruce]

I'm level 50 summoner

[faint flare]

At the arcanist guild, there's a blue quest there for it

[lone spruce]

I'm standing right in the lobby, there's nothing

[calm phoenix]

I scrolled way up. I did not see any coordinates? Perhaps it did not go through

[lone spruce]

Am I missing a prerequisite of some sort?

[raw solstice]

sure, copper ore is fine. Western Thanalan, 26.8, 25.7

that's what I posted

[manic flare]

what's the best way to make gil if you haven't unlocked stormblood and dont have high level DoH jobs?

[slate arrow]

@lone spruce did you do your level 50 job quest

[lone spruce]

Oh no not yet, I was waiting until I was like level 54-ish

[faint flare]

But why

[raw solstice]

oh you shouldn't wait to do your job quests

[faint flare]

You're missing enkindle

[slate arrow]

You need to do your job quest in order to unlock carbuncle glams

and core skills as well

[lone spruce]

Because I like to play it safe and overlevel

[slate arrow]

There's no reason to play it safe

[faint flare]

Always do job quests immediately

Free gear

And kills

[lone spruce]

Welp, back to Gridania I go

I'll just teleport since I hit gil cap, fuck it

[manic flare]

how do you guys beat wanderer's palace (hard) with adventurer squad as a summoner

i always run out of time

since i die so often

[vestal needle]

is there any point of doing eureka beszides cosmetics?

[faint flare]

Good money and very good poetics

[vestal needle]

money from killing NM>

?

[brave ravine]

@manic flare move the boss away from his totems, and dont destroy the totems

[slate arrow]

@vestal needle selling rare items from later zones in eureka

[faint flare]

Selling stuff like Logosgrams, stuff from warped lockbozes and the rare NM drops

Hell even Potions of harmony can be decent

[calm phoenix]

She's having a hard time finding those coordinates

[vestal needle]

oh is the eureka armor marketable?

[faint flare]

Kirin osode/verminion cloak and the stuff to make it are sellable, and the cassie earrings/speed belt are

[nova umbra]

After I finish this, I can change my GC and still finish the twin adder leve quests achievements right?

like this one?

[raw solstice]

@calm phoenix well I mean if it helps you can also go with the other node location in central thanalan. 19.0, 25.7. Basically right near the Steps of Nald outside of ul'dah, little to the north

[soft sleet]

what should I do with unique/untradable/market prohibited stuff

cant even trade it for seals

[faint flare]

Desynth

[spring oasis]

if I do salted earth marco with <m> will it go under me

[upper mortar]

how do most people spend Phantasmagoria?

[soft sleet]

okay... what is desynth haha

[obsidian patio]

@nova umbra pretty sure the levequest ones don’t need you in their grand company. You can double check with some low level ones

[faint flare]

Breaking items down to materials

[calm phoenix]

Those coordinates are invalid. That is beyond a border

[faint flare]

Need lv30 crafters

[raw solstice]

in central thanalan?

I mentioned it's a different zone for that node location

[obsidian patio]

@spring oasis the placeholder for targeting yourself is <me>

[soft sleet]

okay well I dont have any crafters

[obsidian patio]

<m> is mouse over

[brave ravine]

@upper mortar best used on items to augment neo ishgardian gear to 490 ilvl

[calm phoenix]

Western Thanalan

[little swift]

Also make sure she activates prospect

[raw solstice]

yeah that's why I said

[little swift]

You don't get the trait that automatically turns it on until lv2

[spring oasis]

thanks @obsidian patio

[vestal needle]

@faint flare thanks man

[raw solstice]

the ones I listed first for you that she's having problems finding were in western thanalan. No idea why she's having problems finding that location, but the other location is easier to find anyways

the other node location instead being in central thanalan like I mentioned, just outside of the steps of nald

either location is fine for gathering copper ore

[obsidian patio]

@upper mortar if you don’t need the i460/i470 gear anymore buy the crafting materials that cost 20 Phanta (not the dried hi-ether) at the top of the list and sell them on the marketboard.

[upper mortar]

ty

[mortal root]

is the quickest way to get the squadron emotes by going tank in stone vigil?

[calm phoenix]

I just told her to teleport to Nald and start over

[obsidian patio]

Yeah stone vigil is pretty fast to do, can’t immediately remember what other dungeons would be just as fast

[mortal root]

oki ty!

[sour ruin]

If I buy Shadowbringers I'll get Stormblood for free right?

[median locust]

ye

[spring oasis]

pretty sure when I got shadowbringers there was the pack only for all 3

[sour ruin]

Alright cause it doesn't say that on SQ store...

[faint flare]

SE always bundles old expansions into the new one

[spring oasis]

but i just remembered its free up to 60 now

kek

[median locust]

Base game (Standard Edition) is A Realm Reborn + Heavensward
Shadowbringers is Stormblood + Shadowbringers
Complete edition is A Realm Reborn + Heavensward + Stormblood + Shadowbringers

[sour ruin]

Alright just making sure before I spend 40 dollars

Thank you

[calm phoenix]

The coordinates were a bit messed up. She was way on the other side but had number 27 for the first coordinate. Unless there was a little minus sign that she missed, teleporting was needed to reset to coordinates. She got it now

[raw solstice]

there is no negative for coordinates, I've never seen or heard of coordinates messing up and needing to be reset. But regardless, at least you've sorted it out

[calm phoenix]

How long for reset? She did what she could there but only made level 3

[raw solstice]

there's several nodes in that area

you have to move around to the next one to gather

once you interact with a few old ones will respawn

since you're level 3 you can also use lay of the land to help locate the nearest node

location can change slightly for the exact spawn location but they'll still be in the same rough area

[calm phoenix]

If she gets lay of the land II, is lay of the land 1 useless now?

[lavish vortex]

What’s an instanced dungeon? Is it just a formal name to call a normal dungeon?

[faint flare]

No moltres

Lay of the land 2 finds the HIGHEST level node in the area

While 1 finds the nearest

[raw solstice]

@lavish vortex basically yeah. All dungeons take place in instances, same as trials, raids, etc. Something you queue up for, it reserves an instance for you and puts you into it

[shrewd mirage]

how does this party finder work?

[lavish vortex]

Thanks! And for the wondrous tails tasks, when it says complete an instanced dungeon, you can do it solo unsynced? Or you have to queue and go with a party like normal?

[raw solstice]

unsynced is fine for WT

[lavish vortex]

Thanks!

[outer plank]

@shrewd mirage press "/" and it will open it up, there you can join listed parties for what ever instance they are doing.

provided you have them unlocked

otherwise it will say "locked"

people use pf typically for pug raiding

if its something like you trying to put up a pf for a dungeon, its likely not to work, just queue for the dungeon instead. you might attract people for some old extremes/savages (unsynced) but otherwise pf is more commonly used for current content raiding @shrewd mirage

[remote lintel]

party finder is just manually finding a party

[nova umbra]

does fflog take into count aoe damage on mobs? for shiva unreal?

[unique forum]

Is there an ingame chat for just Mentors? I'm about to lose access to the NN due to me completing the MSQ but I'm also maybe 15 mins away from being eligible to become a DoH/DoL Mentor. But I don't really want to be asking for help and advice in NN as a Mentor I'm the one expected to be giving advice.

[shrewd mirage]

Thank you

@outer plank

[lone spruce]

Can you dye the summoner's doublet?

[raw solstice]

yeah adds appear to be included for unreal

[lone spruce]

I haven't dyed anything in so long that I can't remember where you check to see if something can be dyed or not

[raw solstice]

summoner's doublet no, you can augment the evoker's doublet (i50 SMN gear) and then dye that version

[lone spruce]

augment?

Like with materia?

[raw solstice]

nah, it's a bit of a special process for AF1 gear

there's a sidequest in revenant's toll, "simply to dye for", which you have to do in order to unlock it. Then you trade in augments (in this case, two "Evoker's Attire Augmentation") along with the i50 piece of gear, and it'll give you a dyeable version of it

augments are crafted (ALC craft), or you can buy from MB. But they're probably overpriced on MB so if you can't craft them, might wanna find someone who can do it for you

[lone spruce]

I'm leveling up alchemist rn

What do I need on alchemist to qualify to craft it?

A certain level or something?

[raw solstice]

@unique forum nah, no special mentors only chat or anything, all there is, is novice network. But don't be afraid to ask something even as a mentor--not everyone's gonna know everything, and if you ask there's a chance someone else didn't know as well. Always something new to be learned~

it's a level 50 craft, and requires the first masterbook

[lone spruce]

Yeah this game is fucking huge, I wouldn't be surprised if people who are experienced don't know everything

[raw solstice]

easier if you outlevel it a bit than try to do it right away at 50, as well

(or just ask someone to do it for you, especially in your FC or whatever)

[lone spruce]

masterbook? 🤔 Damn this a lot lol for now I'll just do quests and stuff

[signal garnet]

Is there a way to save glam plates to certain classes? I have a plate that has pld exclusive armor, and when I swap to anything else it use what the actual armor looks like.

[agile laurel]

yes

well

yes and no

you can link a glamour plate to pld, as I assume you have

but for what you say to not happen, you'd need plates linked to other tanks

[sweet leaf]

In the sunken temple of qarn, how do we avoid being doomed by the first boss>?

[faint flare]

Step on the glowing plate to remove it

The glowing plate cycles occasionally

[sweet leaf]

ty

[faint flare]

So be ready to sprint if needes

[agile laurel]

yes, the second time doom comes out the plate will cycle almost immediately after

so don't get juked

[calm phoenix]

It has not even been five minutes since my wife logged off and now every time I try to launch Final Fantasy XIV, the game freezes upon launch every time! Does anybody know what the problem could be?

[agile laurel]

no error message?

[calm phoenix]

No error message. Just (not responding) in the title bar

[agile laurel]

hm. #technology-discussion probably but full restart of everything seems viable

[lone spruce]

So if I summon an egi now with the ability to glam it, if I type in the command to glamour it into a carbuncle will it stay that way as long as I don't type in the command to remove it, even if I summon it multiple times?

Because I'm almost never gonna summon the actual Egi form when I have a cute-ass carbuncle instead

[faint flare]

It will stay as what you glamour it until you type the command to change it

Only ever need to do it once

[lone spruce]

Hell yeah so I can just type the commands out for all the egi to glam and whenever I next summon them they'll turn into carbuncles?

I don't need to do it again if I summon a different egi?

[agile laurel]

yup

just glamour titan ifrit and garuda once

and it's done forever

set it and forget it

[lone spruce]

Sweet

[manic tinsel]

do i need to finish all alliance raid before I can proceed with the last 4 MSQ of post ARR?

[agile laurel]

yup.

[faint flare]

Yep, flat out required

[calm phoenix]

Yesterday, I was told to use the shire gear for that one area. Shire gear did not even matter, I am still getting mauled by those goblins near that aether current. Shire gear made absolutely NO difference. What am I not being told?

[earnest echo]

Lower level fishing in Diadem. How does one catch anything?

[remote lintel]

take them out one by one

[gloomy mortar]

Can you grow Blood Pepper seeds in a pot in a FC room? How much is the yield?

[nova umbra]

is this red? Help a colorblind person out xD

[calm phoenix]

I try but five aggro me at once and the rest just join in

[twilit arch]

yes thats red

[gloomy mortar]

yes

[nova umbra]

above that does it turn brown?

[calm phoenix]

And they aggro me from afar

[twilit arch]

ya, above line is more orange/brown

[remote lintel]

they aggro by line of sight and if you get too close to them

[strange coral]

@earnest echo I think there are specific areas for low level fishing, but I don't know if they're the same since the update. Before the update I think it was one of the smaller islands in the northwest area.

[calm phoenix]

Then these bastards can see five miles and have yeyes at the back of their heads

[little swift]

The gear doesn't solve the aggro it just reduces the damage you take

[calm phoenix]

Except it does not reduce the damage I take

[little swift]

The only way to safely ignore aggro is to be 11 levels above the monsters level or maneuver better

[twilit arch]

northern lake (10,9), southern lake (10,29) and grotto(10,35) are basically your leveling spots @earnest echo

[gloomy mortar]

@calm phoenix Try using your Chocobo. Attack, run away, the Chocobo should stay and fight, and get aggroed. Then attune to current,

[remote lintel]

or dont use an aoe pet

[calm phoenix]

I am using Ifrit

[remote lintel]

then yeah try throwing your chocobo under the bus

[gloomy mortar]

👍

[gusty storm]

how much does a tank have in late game content and how much does astro 1100 potency heal heal for

i forgot what its called sorry

[faint flare]

Tanks usually have like over 100k minimum...bis usually pushes around like 110k

[remote lintel]

no more than that

its like 170k or something

the ast should heal like 75% of their heal i think

[gusty storm]

ah so

i can use living dead

pog

[remote lintel]

you can use living dead regardless of healer

[faint flare]

You can use it with all, some healers just need to spend more resources than others

[halcyon glen]

The only situation where living dead scary is dungeon healing with Scholar, and even then they can do it they just don't like it 😛

[faint flare]

Well scholar without aetherflow*

[gusty storm]

cool

[halcyon glen]

to reiterate: Use LD. In dungeon pulls.

[gusty storm]

i will make sure to make my scholar friend sad when they have no aetherflow no mp

pog

ty

[halcyon glen]

By 50 every healer has a way to top you off from 1 HP

They just don't like it unless WHM

White Mage you just wait for LD to pop then wait 9 seconds and push Benediction

[remote lintel]

unless they used bene beforehand

[rotund sable]

i mean the literal worst case scenario for LD is you extend your life by like 7s

[halcyon glen]

^

[rotund sable]

actually i guess the worst case is you pop it and it doesnt activate

but it cant kill you more dead than you were when it activated

[halcyon glen]

but that's Paladin's shtick

[remote lintel]

I mean worst case scenario you actually die

[halcyon glen]

"my invuln went off but i died anyway"

[rotund sable]

yeah but you were dead anyway if LD popped

[patent citrus]

do you think it's worthed to still do duty roulette for the lv 80 tome if my dr alts are 80?

[remote lintel]

if you want

there's better ways to get tomes

[patent citrus]

im still in the beginning of shb

[halcyon glen]

oh then no

[remote lintel]

change jobs

[rotund sable]

lvl 80 tomestones aren't really worth it for msq roulette

you can just run a dungeon and get way more per set time, though that relies on good queues

[halcyon glen]

No he can;t

He has no level 80 dungeons

[remote lintel]

hunt trains

[halcyon glen]

Those practically require flight or a friend with it

[rotund sable]

i mean its still faster to get 80 AF and unlock them

[halcyon glen]

and access to the zones

[remote lintel]

for the few zones they have and can fly in

[gloomy mortar]

Stormblood Hunt trains

[remote lintel]

those don't give 80 tomes

[halcyon glen]

the qualifier was "beginning of ShB". Earliest you can fly in any ShB zone afaik is level 73 after Titania

[gloomy mortar]

They give 10 tomes of Phantasgoria

Per mark

No?

[halcyon glen]

those aren't allegory 😛

[calm phoenix]

How do I get to the western half of the Dravanian Hinterlands? Every path there is blocked including the one in Idylshire! There are currents over there according to a map online

[halcyon glen]

MSQ

[glossy flare]

msq

[patent citrus]

I see

I don't feel i'm helping queue enough if i'm queueing as dps

but i'll just queue as my MSQ characters

both are still early 70

[halcyon glen]

Shockingly, the answer to "how do i reach this inaccessible area" is "Do more MSQ"

[faint flare]

You need to continue story

To access that part

[halcyon glen]

And that will continue to be the answer

for ever and ever

[gloomy mortar]

You can’t spend tomes of allegory if you haven’t finished ShB, so why determined to collect then so early?

[faint flare]

Probably cause the weekly limit

[halcyon glen]

That's why i said it wasn't worth 🙂

[patent citrus]

i was told it gives lv 490 ilvl

later in the game

[remote lintel]

yes but you need to beat the game

[patent citrus]

was thinking if i can just cap it haha

[halcyon glen]

Yes, but you need to have FINISHED ShB first

not feasibly

[glossy flare]

and you have a weekly cap too

[faint flare]

It takes over like 5 weeks to cap 2k allegory

[glossy flare]

so no real sense in farming them too much now

[patent citrus]

yeh it takes me that amount as well to finish an expansion I think

It also took me 5 weeks to finish SB

[halcyon glen]

you can't feasibly cap allegory even weekly without MSQ progression to level 80

[patent citrus]

I see

[glossy flare]

exactly

just finish msq now, worry about endgame things when you have actually unlocked the endgame

[patent citrus]

yeah, I'll queue with DPS haha

[halcyon glen]

There are ways to get it - if you have a friend willing to Uber you to hunts, you can do the first bit of hunt trains

And Khloe will sometimes give you 50 if you ask really nicely

[glossy flare]

hard to not ask that one nicely

[halcyon glen]

(by which I mean get 2 lines on wonderous tails)

[remote lintel]

how hard would it be to pug e7s

[halcyon glen]

e7s afaik is considered the easiest of the lot these days

[remote lintel]

I've never learned a savage without callouts

[faint flare]

There's the Braindead strat for a reason

[remote lintel]

I don't know how ppl do it

[faint flare]

Because the fight is ez

[glossy flare]

I don't know how ppl do it
@remote lintel practice 🤷

[faint flare]

Once you remember how portals work, you've cleared like 80% of the fight

[halcyon glen]

There's very few mechanics that require actual coordination in e7s (as far as I know, im not a savage raider)

[patent citrus]

I see, yeah im facing that problem as well

since I have lv 80, my wondrous trails include lv 80 stuffs

and I haven't unlocked them yet

[halcyon glen]

yep get used to that

reroll it off if needed

[patent citrus]

ok ty ty

[halcyon glen]

E7S is a lot of figuring out where you need to be based on tethers and colours and just going there

usually by way of a magic teleportal

[remote lintel]

or following other people I suppose

[halcyon glen]

Following other people with the same debuff

[faint flare]

7s is just really doing Betwixt worlds, handling adds, colour tethers and then the final phase orbs which is pretty straightforward

Once you figure out portals

[halcyon glen]

Betwixt Worlds being you get a portal and a marker and need to use the portal to get the marker where it needs to go

[patent citrus]

how about these cracked stella/plain cluster

should I concern about them?

[halcyon glen]

msq progress to turn them in

[faint flare]

Those are t7 and t8 materia

[halcyon glen]

so, no i'd say you can safely ignore them until MSQ 80

[patent citrus]

ok

[manic flare]

is there a way to search for recently acquired items?

in your inventory

[quasi spire]

Do I need to beat Mt Gulg to complete tank role quests?

[manic flare]

such as a search parameter like /isearch

[halcyon glen]

@manic flare Not really no

[quasi spire]

And how much more is left in 5.0 MSQ after Mt Gulg?

[faint flare]

Not as far as i know...you can toggle an option to put recent items in inventory

[leaden ginkgo]

HELLO

QUICK QUESTION

[faint flare]

You got abit more after Gulg, you got 1 more zone to get through

[glossy flare]

And how much more is left in 5.0 MSQ after Mt Gulg?
@quasi spire Another zone after Kholusia

[leaden ginkgo]

do I have to beat storm blood to use the story level boosters

[faint flare]

No

[manic flare]

people say selling mats from BC is a good way to get money...where do you find the mats?

[remote lintel]

story level puts you at the beginning of shadowbringers

[faint flare]

There's no restrictions on the boostere

[stable hinge]

any benefit to doing NG+?

[quasi spire]

Yeah I guessed that, is it relatively short like Azys Lla or tiresome like The Lochs?

[remote lintel]

short

[faint flare]

NG+ is purely for replaying story

There's no rewards

[stable hinge]

oh :/

Ty

[glossy flare]

Yeah I guessed that, is it relatively short like Azys Lla or tiresome like The Lochs?
@quasi spire neither

[stable hinge]

would I be able to see unique dialogue that I havent seen before

[remote lintel]

you can see that in the inn

[faint flare]

Yes, it would be reflected

[wooden ginkgo]

where should i buy a weapon for my paladin? im using a random lvl 28 weapon and im lvl 40 rn

[halcyon glen]

Azys Lla if Azys Lla was a real zone 😛

[quasi spire]

cool and re-asking, do I need to beat Mt Gulg to complete tank role quests?

[stable hinge]

Ty

[glossy flare]

I do not think so

[halcyon glen]

shooouldn't

[glossy flare]

at least i cant think of anything that would prevent it

but neither can I say for sure

[faint flare]

Nothing takes place in the final zone so

Should be fine

[wooden ginkgo]

i cant use the market board tho since im in the free trial

[halcyon glen]

You do need to beat the tank role quest before the back half of aformentioned final zone

[faint flare]

Story should give you some weapons, and occasional dungeon drops

[quasi spire]

You can get weapons from vendors in cities up to level 50 I guess

[halcyon glen]

@wooden ginkgo You can either vendor a weapon from any city's market or story or run your highest dungeon and hope that the free drop is nice to you

[wooden ginkgo]

ooh ok

[halcyon glen]

what level is your MSQ at?

[wooden ginkgo]

33

[halcyon glen]

Then "random 28 weapon" is probably okay

[polar hound]

keep grindin away at msq and use chocobo to heal

[wooden ginkgo]

ooh ok

[noble sage]

Is there a like min max kinda guide for squadrons

[wooden ginkgo]

thanks :D

[remote lintel]

you get gear from the msq

[wooden ginkgo]

my class quest stopped giving weapons D:

and msq i need to wait

hopefully i get one soon

[patent citrus]

well if you can't wait, just get one from npc haha

[wooden ginkgo]

lol

[patent citrus]

i mean the job quest i think also gives the one sold in npc

it's just that you can put them in marketboard

[remote lintel]

msq gives HQ vendor gear

[halcyon glen]

did they fix arr?

so it does that now?

[remote lintel]

it's always done that?

afaik

[little swift]

It gives gear coffers like those in shb

[patent citrus]

i don't remember it surely. But my recent experience with job quest, it only gives normal quality of the weapon

not sure around that level

[remote lintel]

not job quests

msq

[patent citrus]

oh right haha

I don't think you can sell anything that you got from msq 🤔

[faint flare]

You can

[remote lintel]

you can

[patent citrus]

usually goes to calamity salvager

[halcyon glen]

MSQ gear in ARR was always NQ

[faint flare]

MSQ just gives you bog standard crafted gear. HQ in expansion

Tradable

[halcyon glen]

looks like ARR MSQ now gives weapon coffers though, which may or may not be HQ?

i dunno i haven't done it since the update

[twilit arch]

they're NQ

[patent citrus]

I see, i think im getting them mixed up

since I usually do them together 🤦‍♂️

[halcyon glen]

oof

[patent citrus]

I think I'm mistaken those artifact gear to msq drops

[obsidian patio]

Honestly the difference between NQ and HQ is pretty minor for 1-50

[warped nest]

Gears in ARR are so weak that NQ and HQ barely differ

[patent citrus]

[warped nest]

Lol XD

I am stating this as someone who crafted gear for my alt dow/m

Early on it is just a small increase in vitality

Afterward small increase in primary stat (you are looking at between +1 to +2)

[leaden ginkgo]

so does it matter what class i choose to start with if i want to be a dark knight later on?

[remote lintel]

no

[faint flare]

You may want to start as a tank to learn how to tank and have gear for it already

[leaden ginkgo]

what class does tanking i only own up to heavensward

[remote lintel]

marauder and gladiator

[faint flare]

Gladiator and Maradurer

Gladiator upgrades to paladin, Maradurer upgrades to warrior

[warped nest]

Paladin, sword and shield, with some offensive magic at higher level

Warrior, Unga bunga meat shield

[leaden ginkgo]

is it common to have a que to login?

[raven sage]

Yes

[obsidian patio]

Usually only takes a minute at most

[faint flare]

Especially with Covid and trial update

Lots of people

[obsidian patio]

Outside of patch and expansion launches

[frigid cedar]

how do I unlock let the hunt begin (immortal flames) ?

I'm a second flame leutenant.

but the NPC that is supposed to give it to me doesn't have it

[obsidian patio]

They have no quest?

[frigid cedar]

No

[obsidian patio]

Are you able to grab a bill from the hunt board?

[frigid cedar]

Yeah

It let me.

[obsidian patio]

Then you’ve already done the quest

[frigid cedar]

Oh, alright.

[obsidian patio]

It’s a super quick “talk and complete” quest so you might’ve just forgotten

[frigid cedar]

It just that the quest doesn't show as complete on the list of completed quests

[obsidian patio]

Hell I think just grabbing the quest completes it

[frigid cedar]

thanks!

[tawny oak]

Upon installing the game my friend recieved an error message saying "unable to download patch files", this message popped up at the same % every time, we've tried changing firewall, dns and messing with files

[patent citrus]

it usually shows the error code right?

what's the error code?

[remote lintel]

did they update internet explorer

[tawny oak]

The error code was something like

[30413][25006][20495][20495]

[calm phoenix]

Do people's Chocobo' heal other players on their own or did someone order their Chocobo to heal me after I fell off the bridge?

[tawny oak]

It's not a space issue either

[faint flare]

Chocobos will randomly heal other people if they're missing health

[remote lintel]

@tawny oak did they update internet explorer

[tawny oak]

Update internet explorer?

[remote lintel]

yes

[faint flare]

The launcher uses Internet Explorer

For reasons

[tawny oak]

So he needs to update it?

[calm phoenix]

I had 1 HP and the area was crawling with aggressive level 59 monsters. I did not know that I could just walk right off of the broken piece'

[remote lintel]

yes

[tawny oak]

How does one do that?

[calm phoenix]

At first, I thought something aggroed me

[remote lintel]

if it looks like you can walk off then you probably can

make sure their windows is up to date? @tawny oak

[tawny oak]

I'm pretty sure it was

oh well

I'll keep looking

[obsidian patio]

For a step to step on IE

[tawny oak]

cause unfortunately you can't refund the game if it doesn't work

[oak smelt]

i cant get jalzahn to convert my zenith weapon into an atma. ive farmed all 12 atma crystals but when i click relic weapon enhancement the game just gives me a tooltip telling me to do what ive already done.
what am i doing wrong?

[warped nest]

Relic equipped

Or in inventory?

[oak smelt]

tried both

[west spindle]

I got this, someone knows what's the problem?

[brave ravine]

unable to connect to login server via the HTTPS protocol

[west spindle]

Yeah, but why?

[brave ravine]

east EU and SEA users sometimes use old ISPs

that dont have certs for certain domains

[cedar compass]

Why are there so few raids per patch?

[remote lintel]

because they release them in batches?

[west spindle]

But I'm playing in Na?

[cedar compass]

Yeah but why? Like

[remote lintel]

because they need to work on them?

[cedar compass]

I don't think it should be that resource intensive to develop a raid

[remote lintel]

well the current 24 man raids were developed with the input of yoko taro

so it was more of a collab

[faint flare]

If they dropped it all in one gox then people would only do the last and they would be dead after a few months

With 2 years to wait for the expansion

[cedar compass]

I don't mean that

[warped nest]

@faint flare can you help @oak smelt on their zodiac

I cannot figure out what could be off

[faint flare]

Boi i haven't touched Zodiac

[cedar compass]

But feels like people who play constantly don't really have a lot to do between patches

[faint flare]

Fuck that shit

[warped nest]

Lol

[remote lintel]

they farm savage between patches

[cedar compass]

If they don't care for crafting and that stuff anyway

[slate arrow]

you have leveling all of your other combat jobs, eureka, deep dungeons, old endgame gear grinds, ultimate

[west spindle]

Can I join a Free Company being in trial?

[remote lintel]

no

[faint flare]

If you're like ONLY here for raids. Sure there's not much to do

But there's alot more they're working on besides raids

[cedar compass]

Well I like challenging content

[brave ravine]

or play multiple mmos if you dont have enough things to do

[slate arrow]

See: Ultimate Raids, Savage Raids

[remote lintel]

then prog ultimates

[cedar compass]

So far (early ShB) everything I can do while being afk basically

[west spindle]

I can't? What a sad and solitary existence I have ahead then, lmao

[faint flare]

Plus spaghetti code doesn't help

[lone spruce]

I fucking forgot my Square Enix ID oof

[faint flare]

Trial basically cant do ANYTHING social

Well except Linkshells

And party

[lone spruce]

Just bought the full game and now I can't remember my ID to login

[faint flare]

And says

[cedar compass]

I just wish trial couldn't yell

Or say at all

[remote lintel]

they cant yell

without /say they wouldnt get anything done

[shy gull]

Are riding maps useful at all?

[cedar compass]

So do RMT farmers pay for their bots?

[runic whale]

hey guys, i have an ast quest question if anyone can help please. lvl60 quests asks me to go to the answering quarter and i can't seem to go there several access points are locked, do i need to progress main quest to access the area?

[remote lintel]

they hack other peoples accounts

[young fjord]

They use hacked accounts

[cedar compass]

Because I see RMT shouts constantly

Ah
