Like even in the most toxic PF content, at worst people usually just type "tyfp" really passive aggressively and leave
manic flare
i think the fact that this is a subscription based game weeds out a lot of the toxicpeople
ripe hound
True
manic flare
what is tyfp stand for?
manic flare
is that passive aggressive?
granite swan
no
brave ravine
it's either $15/mo or you can use in-game gold to continue your sub
manic flare
@brave ravine how do u use in-game gold to continue sub?
granite swan
for WoW
manic flare
oh i see
brave ravine
it's for wow
ripe hound
But yeah, I mean people are really friendly even in the most toxic PFs
manic flare
PFs?
ripe hound
Party Finder
manic flare
which PFs are toxic?
ripe hound
Basically an endgame content thing
You use it to recruit people and people get together
And do some hard contents
Peeps like us who don't have a static to do stuff together use PF for everything
granite swan
or 99% of stuff that has to do with Blue Mage :p
ripe hound
Blue mage lol
But yeah, doing things in PF can often feel... discouraging,
You can often get stuck in a fight for an hour or two without any progress
I mean it feels like not any progress, but actually your skills do improve
But still, discouraging
And people can get salty
And become toxic
But even for that people are still nice
Like "rude" is just "I'm tired, tyfp" and leave
patent citrus
Guys, is Tenacity good stats for gunbreaker?
ripe hound
But maybe I just haven't experienced the worst of PF yet
I think no
Like people just told me to meld DAMAGE and that's all
granite swan
most people are probly to afraid of being reported to really go off on others lol
ripe hound
Nah, I think people are just nice lol
patent citrus
good, lmao
granite swan
... what sugar world you live in
granite swan
rofl
ripe hound
But yeah, I think most tank just meld Damage
analog gate
Guys, is Tenacity good stats for gunbreaker?
@patent citrus generally no
ripe hound
I don't have a lot of experience in this, but generally for everything you can survive Tenacity don't matter, for everything you can't survive it don't matter either
analog gate
it's less of a dps boost than crit/dhit/det
patent citrus
ah ok, i just unlocked the eulmore and i just picked any item that i have lowest ilvl of
ripe hound
Oh right Tenacity gives some DPS
patent citrus
before looking up the meld priority for gunbreaker >.>
ripe hound
But yeah in general you just pick highest ilv
patent citrus
ah ok, ty ty
ripe hound
Substats don't matter that much unless you go into really really endgame BiS stuff
analog gate
ilvl still beats melds, so
if you have higher ilvl item with TEN, use it anyways
ripe hound
Yeah you can meld like Crit anyway
little swift
main stat and vitality > substat
patent citrus
๐
little swift
unless you can meld enough substat to cover the difference
patent citrus
thanks
little swift
for example the relic weapon has 5 meld slots
which can offset something like 5 ilvls
ripe hound
Yeah, but 5 ilvl is about the max possible
Still, the Relic weapon is dirt cheap
So it's always worth getting
patent citrus
hmm haven't unlocked it yet
i guess in time, i will find out some blue quest will unlock it
now i'm dealing with mountain of blue quests after finishing the msq
patent citrus
yeah, it's probably one of the quests later haha
but not sure is which, i can wait
im unlocking other stuffs right now

sullen lark
Should I give my retainer a combat class or a gatherer job?
ripe hound
Usually 1 combat 1 gatherer
Since combat can bring back some weird stuff you need in a pinch
And gatherer can help you gather
static yacht
tbh its usually a lot more time intensive to farm combat mats
than gatherer mats
cause people bot and sell the gatherer mats for super cheap
sullen lark
Okay, thanks for the insight ๐
sullen lark
but surely bots can also bot combat mats
ripe hound
So if it's super expensive on MB we just buy it cross world
Maybe, haven't really notice
I think there also isn't that much demand for Combat mats
All the lower tier regular overworld stuff is easy to find
And people just sell on MB whatever they got
The expensive combat mats are the ones from challenging content
Like Extreme Trial and Savage Raids have chances to drop them
sullen lark
and retainers have a chance of obtaining them?
ripe hound
No idea, I don't think so
I mean yes, a chance
But I think that chance is the same for combat and gatherer
Like the random loot you get from sending them out on an 1 hour random journey is the same randomness
I think
Combat's only advantage is can help you collect overworld mob drops
Which can be useful if you need it in a pintch
sullen lark
Okay, thank you~ ๐

Can recruit a friend campaign be done with a friend in a diff data center/server?
manic flare
is it recommended to switch to a different class if you've leveled to 70 if u are on a preferred server?
little swift
its not a bad idea to
patent citrus
@uncut pendant https://youtu.be/fkDcIKblcVM for example
manic flare
switched to RDM , and i kind of regret that decision
silver ruin
@minor isle yes

RDM is very cumbersome and awkward to play

it isn't awkward at all i think you're just not getting it

also this @manic flare
it shows all the buffs you have your character at any given time
i have mine in the center of my screen

I think you gotta seperate all your buff/debuff

enhancement/enfeeblements/other
little swift
this is also a good thing to have larger if you're having difficulty seeing it
manic flare
@little swift the main problem is the movement
i have my WASD keys moving the character, and the arrow keys moving the camera
uncut pendant
thanks @patent citrus
manic flare
is there a way to free up t he WASD keys
halcyon glen
you get more movement on rdm than ya do on any other caster ๐
little swift
move camera with mouse
manic flare
i would like to move my character with the arrow keys
leaden ginkgo
is the best land gear in Mb for endgame ?
manic flare
and not use my WASD keys
little swift
you get more movement on rdm than ya do on any other caster ๐
@halcyon glen that's not quite correct but sure
manic flare
i would like to use myWASD keys for hotkeys
patent citrus
@leaden ginkgo look up aesthete gathering set
manic flare
for more spells
patent citrus
i think it's the best currently
little swift
you can realistically only move 3/5 seconds
when it gets down to it summoner has way more movement
manic flare
really?
faint flare
Yes
Over 60-70% is instant casts in the rotation
From instants from trances, egi assaults, ruin 4s
You only end up hardcasting ruin 3s and Miasma
little swift
even blm has better consecutive movement
faint flare
Yeah

leaden ginkgo
Hello, why do I sometimes get 6 tomes instead of 10 during hunt trains?
little swift
not enough contribution to the hunt mark
contribution refers to enmity generation
so for tanks having tank stance on and spamming the ranged enmity ability they have
is a good way to do it
leaden ginkgo
is it the contribution done by the party or personal?
leaden ginkgo
so maybe that's why
little swift
dps need to do enough damage to generate enmity, so its often the hardest to do
rigid narwhal
can't
leaden ginkgo
perhaps that could help me do more damage
rigid narwhal
if you have a non targetable aoe, just use that
leaden ginkgo
I don't have

I am trying to start a FC but idk the least annoying approach to asking for signatures, I am just looking for tips or a approach to asking without coming off annoying.

is there a way to see what your glamours would look like before fantasiaing?

Is there a weekly limit on farming the Edenchoir gear from Savage raids?
warped nest
@keen fable put it on a retainer of the same race/gender you want to fantasia into?
@sullen lark no
sullen lark
Okay
warped nest
5.3 is the catch up, I believe almost everything, if not all of it, are unlocked
5.4 will introduce the final raid tier
sullen lark
Ah I see
It makes me sad when I hit the Allegory cap day 2 of the week, so hopefully that gets removed if they release a new higher tier gearset, but I'm new so I'm not sure how often they change allagan tomestone stuff
warped nest
There will be one last Allagan Tomestone for Shadowbringers
little swift
and that one will have its cap doubled close to the end of 5.5
brave ravine
yep you'll have another tomestone to be sad about capping
little swift
phanta will be phased out
sullen lark
Oh no, Phanta D:
little swift
so cap your phanta before the patch goes through to get a small amount back as a conversion
warped nest
In 6.0 all these will be obsolete, and we will have Poetics (universal) and two new tomestone. All Shadowbringers tomestone can then be traded into Poetics
sullen lark
Conversion to the new one?
little swift
yes
warped nest
Phantasma into Allegory
little swift
you aren't left with a full cap of dead tomes
you get to convert it to allegory
jsut like how goetia was converted into phanta

@warped nest I don't have a retainer that i can get rid of

patent citrus
hmm I think i found the shb special weapon quest
zinc orbitBOT
patent citrus
should i finish this as well? tbh the previous special weapon i just skipped it
little swift
the shb relic weapon quest is "hail to the queen"
its a good weapon to start with
i485
patent citrus
yeah im on the beach right now
little swift
relic weapons aren't bad things to start with
if you're on expansion
if its an old one
not really worth since poetics is more accessible
but current expansion is fine
you'll need to upgrade it anyways
which will make it on par with the best weapon of the expansion close to the end
patent citrus
this is not "glamour only" quests right ๐ค
little swift
it would be, if it was an older relic
scarlet hinge
are allied seals and company seals the same thing
patent citrus
like when i asked about deepshadow gearset, some people mention that it's for glamour only
little swift
deepshadow isn't highest ilvl
you can easily obtain higher ilvl stuff
but its something you can grab if you aren't able to grab other stuff right away
are allied seals and company seals the same thing
@scarlet hinge no
allied seals are earned from hunts
patent citrus
you can check out your currency by clicking the gil icon
proud willow
Relics aren't obsolete gear while their expansion is current
little swift
yeah but realistically people won't use deepshadow for actual use now
but it was part of last tier's BiS

what's the highest ilvl of the shb relic weapon?
if im not wrong each relic weapon are upgradable

To about half price
But like mentioned no idea if black friday even happening
Probably will for online sales tbh

are hunt random spawns
faint flare
Yes, random out of a large number of possible spawns
gloomy ice
B rank marks respawn in very short order after a kill but in a completely different location within their zone. A ranks have a cooldown of a few hours before they respawn. S ranks are 2-3 days between spawns. Anything less than a B rank uses normal monster spawn locations.
plain python
does putting DoT on multi-targets allow Bards to proc his song-related skills more often?
faint flare
Yes
Each separate dot has its own check
Multi dotting in trash pulls lets you proc songs basically every tick
plain python
so I should put DoT on 2-3 targets then pop Mage's Ballad and Nock + Rain
plain python
worth to use the +20% damage dealt buff too?
plain python
also, does that buff boosts damage of Limit Break?
faint flare
No
prisma mirage
how do i get more grand company tickets?
faint flare
Nothing affects LB, except environmental buffs like Ravanas blood stance or boss immunities
plain python
do daily routtlte, FATEs, turn-in dungeon and crafted items
at lv50, you can get ironwork gear -> seal if you have spare tomestones
prisma mirage
so i just have to craft random items?
plain python
no, you need to turn in the one it requests
prisma mirage
oh ok
plain python
better way is running dungeons, get gear to turn in, or the ironwork above
with a chocobo saddle, you get get a ironwork shield, put it in the saddle, get another shield,
turn in
prisma mirage
so probably my best bet to get lots of tickets is doing FATES while i am waiting for dungeons
plain python
or try to craft high-quality items and turn in, it doubles the rewards
level up your respective craft too
plain python
you can check what you need to turn in Timer (forget which menu it is in)
prisma mirage
apparently pvp also grants tickets
plain python
you're lv50 yet?
prisma mirage
ok i believe you

that is your ticket to tickets

How do I get exp in level 60? I bought the expansion, installed and did "Chrysalis" to help a friend and got 0 xp out of it

Did you register the expansion
shell echo
Yeah I registered the expansion
Put in the code
2 hour to patch the game
Maybe Chrystalis gives no exp? but I thought all fights do
faint flare
Does your XP bar have the red X on it...otherwise chrysalis doesn't really give much if any xp
little swift
Queuing directly into trials doesn't exactly give much exp anyways
shell echo
Oh maybe that was it. Just wanted to help a friend
faint flare
Trials are trash for XP when done directly
faint flare
Check to see if your XP bar is red
plain python
it should have the (-) symbol if you cannot receive exp
shell echo
Ahh confirmed, no red symbol
plain python
then forget that chrys or whatever exp ๐
faint flare
Then you're fine to get xp

Did they fix living dead so that overheal count as healing 100% of your health
faint flare
You cant really be overhealed during LD, as the debuff goes away if you're max HP
scarlet hinge
@faint flare I meant the secondary effect of living dead which is walking dead
bitter plaza
the situation you describe can't occur
WD keeps track of how much total healing you've received while it is active
as soon as that amount is equal to or goes over your max HP, it falls off
scarlet hinge
ok
bitter plaza
well I can see one situation where it might occur, if your max HP value changes while you're in WD
scarlet hinge
Before if some used benediction on you u need to get healed for 1 more hp
bitter plaza
I don't know how it would work then
zinc orbitBOT
scarlet hinge
so now u can overheal that?
bitter plaza
oh Benediction is a good example actually, it instantly removes WD every time
scarlet hinge
ok
bitter plaza
so based on that I would say it looks at the actual value of the heal, not how much HP you recover
spare plinth
I imagine for benediction the usual best time is for drk and their living dead
warped nest
If you heal using low potency spell/ability while DRK is still taking auto, you will see living dead gone but DRK HP won't be full
green grail
it used to work like that but they changed it to having to recieve healing equal to your max hp over the duration of walking dead
green grail
with like 4.0 iirc
scarlet hinge
So essentially that could potentially be the best invulnerability
bitter plaza
as long as you have a healer, yeah
warped nest
So... Before said patch, If a DRK received benediction, and doesn't take any further damage, and over heal didn't count, so DRK could still die?
bitter plaza
because its total duration can be anywhere from 10 to 20 seconds
scarlet hinge
@warped nest yes
bitter plaza
as long as your HP hits 1 in those first 10 seconds
scarlet hinge
that how it worked 5 years ago
bitter plaza
not as bad as Superbolide, which lowers your HP to 1 before it applies the invuln
scarlet hinge
imagine receiving benediction then popping superbolide
warped nest
Superbolide makes you take no damage, so it is like Hallowed Ground, just with a tad of annoyance
bitter plaza
every GNB has had that happen at least once
there's a single frame where any hit can kill you if you use Superbolide
scarlet hinge
this is off topic now
warped nest
Taking 0 damage and cannot die, while have the same result, could have different uses in different scenario
bitter plaza
maybe they've fixed it now but that was a real risk at ShB launch
scarlet hinge
this is a questions chat
warped nest
Agreed
scarlet hinge

hi! i need some help with the soundtrack codes
slate crow
Does it strike against you if youโre in a duty and your WiFi goes ppft?
reef python
i got the shadowbringers ost for my birthday and redeeming the suzaku minion was easy enough, but the code for the soundtrack download i can't get
the instructions are completely in japanese and the links on it only send me to se's website
anyone know how to redeem it?
it is a 16 digit code
so it's not an item code
there's also a QR code on it, maybe that's worth a shot
sorry if this isn't in the right channel btw
warped nest
@jade quartz so, I should just go ahead and verify mine then
warped nest
Oh, apparently I need to fiddle with my lodestone
Eh
Too much trouble
Ain't doing it
@jade quartz just to be sure, the code is generated by Kupo and is unique to my character, this is parked on my lodestone for Kupo bot to verify me. and unless someone else manage to open my account, it won't do anything right?
reef python
used google lens to find other posts about these codes
seems as if it's a square enix members reward thing
a thing that's available in NA and JP...
and not in EU
well
shit
jade quartz
@warped nest yep correct
reef python
i think i'm morally allowed to download the thing from some site somewhere
jade quartz
Can remove the code from lodestone after kupo has verified
warped nest
Nah, I am too lazy to log on
As long as the code cannot be used to do any harm
I am not gonna do a thing
reef python
the verif code contains no sensitive info whatsoever, it's just a string generated by the bot so you can put it on your profile, it sees it's there, and confirms that you are who you say you are and gives you a green tick on whoami
then you can remove it from your profile
reef python
yeah it's unfortunate
if you have any japanese friends who want a free shadowbringers ost digital download code, hit me up
it is useless to me

Hi. Just a quick question about aetherial density farming for anima weapon

Donโt go imagining you wonโt sometimes forget to equip it before the final boss though.

Though the usual way is by spamming A9S, not any dungeon
warped nest
Yeah, if your character level is high enough when you unsync the dungeon, just equip it all the way
jade quartz
Highly recommend A9S.
warped nest
I doubt it tbh
jade quartz
No, you make an anima farm party finder
Youโll probably complete the step in under two hours that way
willow cipher
yeah it seems a bit far fetched. I'll gather some friends if I can for it
jade quartz
I very highly recommend that over attempting solo
warped nest
A9S is crazy good
jade quartz
You donโt need friends, thatโs what party finder is for

I've been trying to download the free trial from the website but when I log into my Square Enix account that I just created it gives me this message "Square Enix accounts that have already registered for a FINAL FANTASY XIV service account are not eligible for a free trial." Is there anything I can do?
glossy flare
So with manual use of skills you can just press the button a fraction of a second before the cd finishes and the skill will still take effect

without those repeating lines you'd have to spam the macro like crazy

warped nest
I am not familiar with free trial, so I cannot help much on that end, Barnesy, sorry

You can not reach the endgame without finishing the story
warped nest
You don't need to out level your 
glossy flare
which will provide you with more than enough xp to do so
karmic niche
just do your main quest
glossy flare
Reason for this is that all major content is locked behind the completion of certain story quests
spiral rivet
and then in terms of materia and upgrading items or whatever, do i just elave that for later?
once i reach endgame?
glossy flare
Yeah, you can ignore that
It's generally not worth it to do that before reaching max lvl

So, I'm still pretty new to FF14 and been seeing some memes about the DCs and such, mostly how Crystal is just basically all rp and not that great with raiding. What dc is better at that? I see a lotta people talk about Primal, but is it better for raiding and such? Started off on Crystal, but I'm not really tied to it and havent started getting into rp on FFXIV yet anyway.
agile laurel
Primal and aether are about on par
Crystal isn't bad for raiding
it's just markedly less populated for it than the alternatives
lapis bolt
Soโฆ Iโm curious, should I join a big FC or make my own? Iโm assuming it would be harder to make my own because of my current level (56 I think) and just temporarily joining a bigger one would be more beneficial
agile laurel
the gains beside social would be FC buffs (if they have any that're worth it), a room to buy (if they have a house) and a stable to do chocobo stuff (see previous)
robust gazelle
Hmmm, okay. Thank you!
agile laurel
So obviously by making your own you don't get any of those
You could theoretically join a larger FC til you find your feet, and start your own later down the line. No harm in that

lapis bolt
Thatโs what Iโm thinking of doing. Iโd just like an FC that keeps the buffs up because I kind of need them. I usually prefer smaller groups so I donโt have to really work to get noticed, but I think for now itโs a better idea.

@leaden ginkgo You can typically purchase the item(s) required on the Market Board.
Just make sure that if you get one with materia attached, you get one with the right materia attached.

@robust gazelle Aether would be better for you since its more hardcore. But if you want more like "casual" Primal is the better option. I mean you can do everything on Crystal it'll just be more difficult to find a static since its not that DCs "main focus" it is very possible to raid. I would highly suggest waiting until 5.35 to pick another server to transfer to because right now, most of Primal is current congested or if you intend to go to Aether. Either way transfer service costs you $18
twilit arch
Aether and primal are pretty even when it comes to savage clears
so realistically aether is no more hardcore than primal
open ember
I'm guessing that has changed over the course of the expac then

In Need bonus is always available, so you can get it so long as you're playing a role that is currently in need. that said its not generally worth running the roulette specifically for the in need bonus, especially if you're leveling
dawn cradle
I was thinking about the bonys for the seals
As some of the weapons look cool so I thought abought getting them for glamour
twilit arch
if you're not sergeant second class or higher in you grand company, than doing it for the seals is alright to get you to that promotion

@open ember Sorry for the late reply and thanks for the info!

I notice them fizzling sometimes when I do my opener improperly. Like, an Egi Assualt from SMN won't come out at all after a flood of other actions, no matter how long I wait

And gear sets? In similar situation
glossy flare
They can also be used up by the pet not being able to execute it for some reason
You still lose a charge then

All the alternatives to crystarium are ex/savage.

Is neoishgard still usable?

The 24man raid gear is i490 too, but that's left side only I think

Without savage/EX, best you get is Augmented crystarium aa upgrades is via 24man and hunts
glossy flare
neo ish is okay as a starting point until you get crystarium
faint flare
Neo ishgardian is as its upgradeable to i490
And comparable to unaugmented crystarium

Ah. I forgot neoishgard is the "preupgrade"

Also, if fey illu boosts say, adlo, then the shield on adlo will also be boosted because more health restored, correct?

Question I feel I know the answer to, will Enkindle always be buffed by Devotion due to both coming from the pet technically, or only if devotion hits me?
stark sleet
I'm not 100% sure, but I think devotion needs to hit you. The pet mirrors the buffs you have instead of being their own entity, iirc
faint flare
Pet mirrors all your buffs except dragon sight
agile laurel
right. so pet doesn't technically buff itself with devotion
figured that was the case
stark sleet
Give Ifrit dragon sight 
stark sleet
Oh yeah, related question I had that came up the other day. If an AST gives a SMN a ranged card, Ifrit will still get the +6% even though he is melee, right?
agile laurel
by the same logic yes
faint flare
Pets are casters for all intents and purposes
agile laurel
at this point
stark sleet
Cool. Was wondering if it mirrored "+6% damage" or "The Bole" or something
agile laurel
if it helps to think of pets as a glorified dot/third hand
that's basically the case
except it still doesn't respond on time and fucks my opener

I have a question relating to FC leadership and leadership ability:

Titan egi is for burst aoe in optimization settings and for when you need his shield to survive stuff, primarily when soloing if you're not killing stuff quickly
zinc orbitBOT
stark sleet
@manic flare It's a severe damage loss, but the shield it gives you is very potent, and can be reapplied every 30 seconds. Can be nice for prog when damage doesn't really matter yet, and once in a blue moon it can save your life if you know you aren't gonna have enough health for something, and have an Egi Assault 1 ready, you can switch to Titan and get a shield. Most of the time you won't be using him at all, though

'Most FFXIV rotations consists of the following phases.
Start with Inner quiet. When you are at higher level there will be more starter skills like Comfort Zone.
Do a sequence of touches to increase IQ stack (at your level it's usually done with Steady Hand + Hasty Touch).
2.1 Use skills like Manipulation or WasteNot to increase durability.
2.2 Use Trick of Trade to recover CP when possible.
-
Do a finisher (Great Stride + your best Touch skill).
-
Synthesize the progress to 100%. You need to calculate your durability for this. You can do a basic synth at step 2 or 3 for simple crafts, but for advanced crafts you can use simulator.
There are all kind of variations of rotation, but the basic idea is pretty much this. The chance of HQ increases by a lot at key levels (e.g. when you get Steady Hand 2 and Byregot's Blessing), and to be honest you'll only get a serious chance of HQ when you can at least wear a full set of crafting accessories (~19 or so). Also, food can help you greatly, items like stone soup is dirt cheap and provide 17 valuable CP.
I would suggest you to level all your 8 crafting classes equally so that they can share equipment and whatnot. Remember to make your equipments up to level!'
