it's Darkside that used to make them glow, and still does

#

but it's now a temporary buff that you trigger rather than a stance that you always leave on

quasi hawk
#

darkside is a dmg buff now that you refresh using one of two abilities

paper flower
#

Ah, bad memory then. I thought if I just had grit on I got a little aura thing

#

"Last" quesiton. To farm "light" for my Sharpened Guillotine weapon. Can I do any dungeon content or does it have to be certain content?
I see guides on what ppl solo and what is "fastest" but I just wanna know if I can do any dungeon

spare plinth
#

how easy is bard? somewhat?

twilit arch
#

needs to either be lvl 50 dungeons or heavensward content for Anima light farming

sweet crane
#

I'm working my way through eureka and plan on doing BA. if I have full i500, do I even care about the eurekan armor?

paper flower
#

@twilit arch level 50 dung or Heavens - got it

twilit arch
#

fastest is usually a9s farm, or if you can't find/don't want to find a group for it, do something like brayflox hm solo

paper flower
#

@sweet crane - I'm doing the armor for the glowy armor

#

@twilit arch yeah, I saw Brayflox and haukkue

twilit arch
#

bard's pretty easy, though keeping track of dots and procs can be a bit overwhelming. all in all though its rotation isn't hard at all, since its mostly a priority based rotation

sweet crane
#

and if I don't care about the glamour, then it's whatever?

twilit arch
#

if you're doing BA, you do care about elemental armour

sweet crane
#

okay, thanks! just wanted to make sure I didn't waste my pyros crystals

twilit arch
#

cos the elemental bonus from the set isn't soemthing to sneeze at

craggy ridge
#

I have a butt ton of questions now thay I'm returning, anyone wanna voice chat for a q and a? šŸ˜

analog gate
#

just ask them here

scarlet hinge
#

Is there a site where I can see artifact armor

junior cloud
#

MSQ so boring

#

why the fuck do I need to kill rats

#

I'm a fking adventurer

#

lmaoooooo

faint flare
#

Everyone starts somewhere

craggy ridge
#

I have so many questions I'd be typing forever

#

Mostly about items in my inventory I never finished quests for etc

#

Such as the relic, or like raid items, some current antique pieces idk what to do with?

proud willow
#

If you hop into voice, I'll try to answer

craggy ridge
#

Ok tyvm

faint flare
#

You can discard most of them

patent citrus
#

I just done the puppet bunker and copied factory, why i can't greed/need the 490 ilvl equipment for my role?

#

both option grayed out

analog gate
#

you can only get one piece of gear for bunker, per week

warped nest
#

For items

analog gate
#

copied factory is no longer limited

warped nest
#

Use Garlandtools, a site

crisp ether
#

the latest alliance raid has a 1-gear per week lockout

warped nest
#

Search item, and check what they are used for, then make a decision

patent citrus
#

hmmm it's weird

#

i don't remember rolling need/greed in one of the gear

#

that was my first time in puppet bunker

#

do both raid share cooldown?

warped nest
#

No

#

If everyone else pass, and you didn't roll, the loot goes to you

#

I think

analog gate
#

did you greed anything else? even if it's not your job's gear as long as you get any gear you can't get more for the week

#

also yeah the timeout probably

patent citrus
#

i got yorha type-51 cap of striking ilvl 460

#

from copied factory

halcyon glen
#

CF gear is unlocked anyway

analog gate
#

type-51 doesn't matter, only type-53

patent citrus
#

oh right, i got the one for my bard šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

#

dammmmm

#

what a missed chance

#

not sure how i got the bard version

#

i don't remember since i was too focused on the mechanic

warped nest
#

What I said

patent citrus
#

so i probably accidently greed/need these stuffs

warped nest
#

If everyone else pass, and you didn't pick any option

#

By default, it goes into your inventory, afaik

patent citrus
#

which boss have this dialog?

#

karma for greeding everything haha

wheat plume
#

When I change to recommended gear, it chooses a waist with less defense. Why?

warped nest
#

Primary stats

warped nest
#

If you have say, a healer, then the most important stat is Mind

patent citrus
#

I think I tunnel visioned since i got rolled into tank in alliance B

warped nest
#

A armor with crap defense but 1 point in mind, will be recommended over a 0 mind armor with insane defense

wheat plume
#

It chooses a waist with DEF 47 str+6 instead of another with DEF 71 str+5

warped nest
#

Strength is a primary stat

patent citrus
#

can give picture of both gear and your class?

#

maybe you mixed up with tank/melee dps

warped nest
#

Happens a lot in ARR, cuz dow/m do a lot of sharing

#

It become less frequent the higher lvl you go in your story progression

wheat plume
#

The one with DEF 47 is selected by Recommended Gear

warped nest
#

Yes

fresh lodge
#

Because it has more Strength

warped nest
#

Because Strength is a primary stat

#

So a gear with more primary stat will be picked

patent citrus
#

lower ilvl probably

#

that's what i can think of

wheat plume
#

Is it worth? to have str+6 instead str+5 if that means having DEF 47 instead of DEF 71

fresh lodge
#

Yes

warped nest
#

your defense doesn't make that big of a difference

fresh lodge
#

You're a DPS, defence doesn't matter that much

wheat plume
#

Even if I do solo quests? isn't the change in defense too much in those cases?

patent citrus
#

thanks for the help

warped nest
#

No

fresh lodge
#

Solo quests are designed so that anyone can clear it

#

So its designed around healer's low defence stat

warped nest
#

You need to be hilariously undergeared to be able to fail those, aside from not understanding mechanics

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a way to predict MP ticks?

#

or do I just have to wait for the server to tick?

#

how does it work?

faint flare
#

Ticks happen every 3s

wheat plume
#

Well, I've been used to do quests even without armor and pants because I wanted to see skin all the time, so I guess you're roght.

silver ruin
#

set amount based on your piety every 3s (assuming healer)

#

otherwise every 3s

leaden ginkgo
#

but is there a way to make it faster than 3s?

silver ruin
#

no

leaden ginkgo
#

so I guess I should get less spell speed

faint flare
#

Everything ticks on 3s, dots and mp

warped nest
#

Ummmm

brave ravine
#

if a dot has 1s remaining and I reapply the dot which brings it back to 30s duration.. does the tick happen immediately or I have to wait another 3 sec for the tick?

warped nest
#

Just refer to balance for these sort of optimization

leaden ginkgo
#

oh, dots too, interesting

warped nest
#

Don't do the math yourself

silver ruin
#

^

faint flare
#

Depends when the dot ticked last

fresh lodge
#

The tick only ever happens every 3 seconds

warped nest
#

Respectfully speaking, you'd probably get it wrong

silver ruin
#

assuming you're at 80 they have gear sets listed

fresh lodge
#

That never changes

wheat plume
#

Is there anything to heal beside Hi-potions and Second Wind when I'm doing solo?

fresh lodge
#

Everything ticks on the server tickrate

leaden ginkgo
#

I'll check on balance, thanks

warped nest
#

Use your companion chocobo

fresh lodge
#

Summon your chocobo and spec it for healing

faint flare
#

Dots tick every 3s but they can tick immediately or have their first tick a few seconds later

warped nest
#

And give it some healer skill

faint flare
#

Either at 30 > 27 etc or like 28 > 25 etc

wheat plume
#

Use your companion chocobo
@warped nest IĀæ, lvl 49, Can I do that now? Having chocobo to help me in battle.

faint flare
#

Depends on when the dot was applied vs the overall server tick

warped nest
#

You can do that since lvl 20-ish iirc

fresh lodge
#

Companion chocobo is like a level 30 quest

leaden ginkgo
#

is this some sort of snapshotting vs server ticks?

wheat plume
#

I though at lvl 20 I only could use him for waling faster lol

leaden ginkgo
#

this is some crazy optimization question lol

fresh lodge
#

Dots are snapshotted on application

wheat plume
#

I have stormblood on PS4, Can I buy Complete Edition instead of just Shadowbringers?

faint flare
#

Just Shadowbringers since you already own the base game

warped nest
#

You should buy just Shadowbringers

fresh lodge
#

Yes but you'd be wasting money

faint flare
#

Cheaper

wheat plume
#

Only shadowbringers is more expensive that complete collection

#

complete edition is $30 right now, shadowbringers is $40

fresh lodge
#

Then yeah, Complete edition is fine

warped nest
#

Yeah

wheat plume
#

And will it download all complete edition as anothernew game?

fresh lodge
#

No

#

It'll just download ShB

manic flare
#

what's difference between fellowship and free company

faint flare
#

Fellowships are essentially message boards

#

With no proper chat

#

Free companies are actual guilds with perks like buffs, houses and chat

wheat plume
#

The buffs from the FC are get automatically?

patent citrus
#

dam i never knew there's a break chance when retrieving materia for current gear šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

gilded forge
#

Should I be focusing on crit or direct hit rate for SAM?

faint flare
#

The people with permissions active the FC buffs

wheat plume
#

Is there another requirement to extract materia besides spiritrbond to be at 100%? I think I couldn't do it from a item my retainer was storing when I was deciding what to sell in marketboard.

jade quartz
#

must be in your own inventory

faint flare
#

Has to be in your inventory and you're not busy doing something

wheat plume
#

thxs

crimson wind
#

How do I do e7s away with thee on controller?

#

If it helps, I'm on tank

wheat plume
#

When my retainer is selling something, does it still takes a slot in her inventory?

faint flare
#

Use the camera to point the debuff arrow where you want to go

#

Then walk forward

crimson wind
#

ok

faint flare
#

You'll turn around to face the new forward and the portal will spin around

crimson wind
#

Thought it would seem more challenging

faint flare
#

Its not really

#

You basically position the portal with your camera

#

Then you can greed it out

#

And walk at the last moment

crimson wind
#

I use the legacy movement mode of that changes anything

faint flare
#

Thats how legacy does it

crimson wind
#

ah

faint flare
#

If you're going to the outside, hang slightly around the centre so you're not accidently yeeted

crimson wind
#

ok

faint flare
#

You have a second or so to adjust after

crimson wind
#

What are the pf strats

faint flare
#

Usually a mix of Cross T or /||\ (aka normal)

crimson wind
#

And braindead ofc?

keen fable
#

what does a soul of the crafter do

faint flare
#

And braindead

#

For colour portals

crimson wind
#

What's cross t for, portals?

#

Not portals

faint flare
#

Betwixt world's

crimson wind
#

Puddles

fresh lodge
#

Lets you become a spec on that crafter

#

They get bonus stats and exclusive recipes

#

Also a super strong skill

faint flare
#

Betwixt worlds is either Cross t or /||\

keen fable
#

are there certain specs better than others

crimson wind
#

Betwixt is...away with thee?

faint flare
#

Cross T is just Charge 1 going to Lane 4 and Charge 4 going to lane 1

#

The first away with thee

crimson wind
#

ok

faint flare
#

After first portals

#

With the crystal walls

crimson wind
#

is this

#

actually the easiest fight this tier

wheat plume
#

Why some weapons in my armoury chest say BINDING ?

crimson wind
#

It means you've used it

#

So you can't sell or trade it to others

wheat plume
#

If I've used it, I cant sell it ?

faint flare
#

Yes, E7s is the easiest fight

crimson wind
#

You can sell it to vendors

faint flare
#

Once you know portals, the fight just becomes boring

crimson wind
#

Not on marketboard tho

wheat plume
#

oh, ok, and why is that? Is there a purpose for that?

faint flare
#

Stop reselling

#

And lowering the value of stuff

crimson wind
#

Just buy and sell for a higher price 4head

keen fable
#

can you change the crafter specializations if you dont like a choice later on

faint flare
#

Yes

#

You can change 3 times a week

#

Costs 450 scrips to buy another soul item

crimson wind
#

What's the scale drop rates for the SB extremes

keen fable
#

okay so i used one

#

how do i find these recipes and ability?

#

i'm not seeing anything new

queen flame
#

Do we have an idea of when 5.4 patch will hit?

keen fable
#

december

faint flare
#

The ability is in your skills at the bottom, specialist receipes are at 80

#

A few current receipes are specialist only

#

Like the new crafted primal weapons

keen fable
#

yeah my weaver is 80

#

i'm not seeing anything

faint flare
#

They dont have their own tab, there's just a tag saying "specialist required" on some

crimson wind
#

Is there a lot of downtime in 7? Looks like a pretty easy fight to get high uptime in

faint flare
#

Yep

#

Basically full uptime really outside of portal stun

crimson wind
#

ic

#

nice

#

I can probably clear this in a day, provided I bring along like 1-2 people who've cleared

keen fable
#

so if careful observation is a specialist trait, where do i find it in my actions?

scarlet hinge
#

Anywhere I can find images of artifact armor?

clear glen
#

GNB is an interesting class. Trying it out right now

ripe hound
#

@keen fable It should be on the bottom of your action list if you unlocked it

dusk drum
#

Is there a shiny version of the Byakko weapons?

keen fable
#

mouseover macros on ogcd's shouldnt be negative in any way right?

#

because you dont have to do a /wait

little swift
#

they still have the not queuing issues so you might not be able to double weave with them

#

but they'll work

keen fable
#

i'm just thinking about doing one with play

#

unless that causes issues with ast later on?

little swift
#

nah play macros are something thats used for some controller play too

keen fable
#

aight cool

#

i have no idea how this is played later so

little swift
#

weaving may be something you'll have to really force hard without clipping

#

but its 100% doable

I am a lvl 27 murduer but the quest for rouge is still red

little swift
#

Can someone tell me how to unlock the rouge quest line
@kind geyser have you done your marauder class quests

#

you need to do until the lv10 one before you can switch classes

#

Is there a limit to how many materia I can have?
@wheat plume in your inventory? no. in equipment? depends on what kind it is. tome gear/raid gear is maximum 2 melded. crafted gear can overmeld to 5

@little swift what yoy mean lvl 10 what?

halcyon glen

uh, you know the MSQ traccker

little swift
#

these you need to have done up to the lv10 one

halcyon glen
#

in the top left corner ot your screen

kind geyser
halcyon glen
#

See where it says first impressions?

little swift
#

yes i know you're level 27

halcyon glen
#

Close your character menu

little swift
#

do what ddrox is suggesting

halcyon glen
#

And then right under that should be the name of another quest

little swift
#

and look at the quest its asking you to do

#

class/job quests aren't optional

halcyon glen
#

If I had to blindly guess, it's either "Way of the Marauder" or "Axe in the Stone"

little swift
#

you must do them

halcyon glen
#

Whichever it is, go do it and every quest that follows

#

until you can do no further quests from that NPC

#

These are your Class Quests. 2/3 of your skills are locked behind them. You're gonna wanna do them.

wheat plume
#

Is there any worth in keeping unique and untradable weapons that I don't use?

halcyon glen
#

Upon completion of the quest "Wake of Destruction", you'll gain access to the armoury system

#

and with it, the Rogue class

#

@wheat plume Glamour or exchanging for Grand Company seals later on

little swift
#

almost everything you have can be easily reobtainable if you wanted it

#

so if you don't want it you don't have to keep it

wheat plume
#

@wheat plume Glamour or exchanging for Grand Company seals later on
@halcyon glen When can I sell for Grand Company seals ? I'm in lvl 49 and want to ged rid of extra stuff in my inventory.

little swift
#

you need to be higher rank with your gc

#

sergeant 2nd class

halcyon glen
#

Your Grand Company's personnel manager, provided you've ranked up your GC a bunch

little swift
#

if you're already there then you can speak to a GC person and submit stuff under supply/delivery missions

wheat plume
#

I haven't done anything yet with my GC

little swift
#

and then its the third tab

#

"expert deliveries"

#

you'll need to rank up more then

wheat plume
#

How do I rank there?

halcyon glen
#

If you haven't, you can either discard the weapons and waste the seals or throw them on a retainer or in the glamour chest for later use

wheat plume
#

What is glamour chest?

halcyon glen
#

Talk to the Personnel manager and request a promotion

little swift
#

here's a link to what you need to rank up

wheat plume
#

I think seals will be useful in the future, right?

little swift
#

and what it gives you

halcyon glen
#

IActually wait this is pre-50 weapons i lied don't throw things in the glam chest

little swift
#

yes seals are pretty useful

wheat plume
#

What's the use of glamour chest and how do I unlock that?

Glamour FAQ

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

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

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

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

Glamour Dresser FAQ

"What is the Glamour Dresser?"

The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.

"How do I use it?"

In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".

When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.

wheat plume
#

Can I use Glamour to look as I look without any equipment ?

little swift
#

nope it has to go on something

#

but you can look basically naked

halcyon glen
#

you'll want to glam the "Emperor's New [Whatever]" over your equipment for that

little swift
#

with the emperor's new <insert equipment name here>

wheat plume
#

do you have a list to every word I can put after "faq" here?

little swift
#

that's the invisible stuff

#

you can do !faq in #kupo-bot-spam

and it'll give you a menu

#

to flip through

#

do it here and slap

wheat plume

#

is there like, a better way to get hq materials? for instnace im trying to make hq woolen yarn right now
@soft flicker you could start crafting them with more hq materials. or you can buy them from the market board

lone zephyr
#

i just want to stop them from sending me tells

soft flicker
#

dang it all just seems so ridiculously expensive even at level 40...

leaden ginkgo
#

I was runnng POTD and this dragoon or whatever kept running around f'ing everything up for everybody. i tell him to stop running in the center springing traps, he continues to do it. He also kept pulling tons of mobs and almost got everyone killed. then, when i got to the boss, he deicdes he wants to pull it and ruined everyones timing

hq materials might be a gatehring investment

is it bad that in dungeons i use single target rotation instead of aoe as black mage?

#

rotund sable
#

Kick them I guess

little swift
#

depends on your level

rotund sable
#

Depends on level and amount of mobs

spare plinth
#

i do f4 instead of f2

rotund sable
#

But generally yes it's bad to not aoe

little swift
#

!faq blmleveling i remember there's a point where you f4 over f2 because it just flat out does more damage

zinc orbitBOT
#
THM/BLM leveling rotations
little swift
#

yeah from 60-67

#

its more worth to do f4 becasue you can cast more of them

#

You still flare though

Boiled egg, like any other food, gives a +3 percent exp gain, it is not a lot, but it adds up, no harm in stocking them up

i'm confused as to how to do the fashion report

oh wait.

Gears from NPC for future proofing other jobs you want to level

#

No

#

Hi! Can you get Celestial Kimono Remnants from desynth?
@lavish vortex iirc no, but that might have changed

No, shop selling price is the price NPC sells it for

oh is my level 45 job quest that i need this for

warped nest
#

Oh

soft flicker
#

im level 52 though

#

i literally get it to like 9% haha

warped nest
#

Your gear just feels a tad too low, imo, for a crafter trying to do lvl 45 quest turn in

little swift
#

yeah your CP is really your crippling factor

As a SMN should I be using other summon other than IfritEgi?

@soft flicker care to post what gears you have?

#

here's a set of leveling rotations and equipment

#

they all use a higher cp amount than you have

warped nest
#

Or follow Channy guide

tired timber
soft flicker
#

oh my rings and stuff are pretty much non existent

warped nest
#

It is fine to be a few points behind in stat while leveling, yours is a bit too far if I am honest

soft flicker
#

looking at the market stuff seems really really expensiv eto get

#

is that the only place to buy it?

warped nest
#

Do you have access to Heavensward city?

soft flicker
#

yeah i do

warped nest
#

You can buy some lvl 51 crafter gear from NPC there iirc

soft flicker
#

alrighty ill head over there

warped nest
#

For future reference, you should strive to supply yourself with your own crafting gear if possible, and get HQ gear

#

In this case, NQ gear from NPC is good enough to get you unstuck

soft flicker
#

i just got the right side of my stuff updated

#

im at 283 cp now

warped nest
#

Yay

soft flicker
#

ill see if i can afford the left now

warped nest
#

Go and read the guide Channy posted

#

And you should be covered for the time being

little swift
#

the extra bit of cp they get is from food

#

doing multiple classes worth of crafting job quests

#

should hit you with enough gear

#

becasue you get the same rewards at every level

#

you just choose different options to cover them all

soft flicker
#

ic ic

#

is that why people say to level them together?

little swift
#

that and because they make the materials for each other

soft flicker
#

it just seems like so much to level them all together at once haha

warped nest
#

It is worth it

little swift
#

you'll save yourself money in the long run

warped nest
#

You can try to keep them around 3-5 levels apart

#

Saves you gear spaces, and they get to make materials/gears for each other

As someone who lives in north america, which data centers would be best for me?

rare comet
#

depending on where you live

glad quail
#

California

tired timber
#

is it aether = west coast, primal = mid-west, crystal = east?

warped nest
#

All NA DC are in California

#

EU DC I believe is in Munich?

glad quail
#

Oh, well that helps

warped nest
#

JP DC is... Well... In JP

tired timber
#

all i know is that people consider crystal to be too casual or something

glad quail
#

I'm thinking of gilgamesh but idk the culture on there

tired timber
#

do australians tend to play on NA or JP servers

glad quail
#

I heard there's one in NA that some of them play on but idk

faint flare
#

I think they're somewhat split but leaning more on JP

#

Tonberry and Kuja are kinda the unofficial English servers on JP

glad quail
#

Anyone know if gilgamesh is a good center to join? Idk about the differences between each one

faint flare
#

Server choice doesn't really matter

little swift
#

instances are matchmade across the entire data center

and there is world visiting

Oh ok

Only data centre really matters since thats the pool of players/worlds you pull from

@slate crow look at the meteor-things falling onto the scales on either side. In normal mode it's just whatever side has more weights falling onto it. In Extreme there are both small and large weights, and you have to solve for which is heavier.

I'm currently level 78 on my highest job, is it worth buying the neo ishgardian set now for when I hit 80?

rigid narwhal
#

if you can afford it, how long til you're at 80 msq wise?

hazy jay
#

I'm on the lvl 76 quest Rust and Ruin atm, I havent checked the msq list in awhile so I'm not sure how far along I am currently

rigid narwhal
#

it's not a terrible idea

brave ravine
#

if you can wait about 2 months, new gear tier by then :3

rigid narwhal
#

you're gonna need gear once you reach 80, and you can upgrade your 480 neo ish to aug neo ish with phantasmagoria

#

which is 490

#

then, just start getting pieces from bunker/aug crys/savage stuff to replace stuff that's BiS

#

so i'd just buy it now, yes

hazy jay
#

Ooh thats good to know! I probably can't wait that long though @brave ravine šŸ˜…

rigid narwhal

what do you play?

hazy jay

Thank you @rigid narwhal! I wasn't really sure how the endgame worked as far as gear progression goes, that clears up alot of my confusion šŸ˜„

and red mage

wheat plume
#

All attacks deal extra damage while used in flank/rear, or only when the action specifies it?

rigid narwhal
#

ah, cool

#

also once you hit 80 you'll have to start melding stuff

#

so do crit > dh >= det

#

if it doesn't have crit and isn't maxed, use crit. if it has dh, use crit melds

#

don't worry about pentamelding or anything rn, money sink for a small gain for a new 80

You can't join them.

But you can only be in an FC on your home world.

Just go ahead and ask your question

how do you reset your mudras with Hide?

#

like what's the actual rotation ?

open rivet
#

Also server = world, you're thinking of datacentre.
tbf with today's infrastructure & abstraction, it might as well run on the same machine, but on different VMs

fresh lodge
#

You use Doton and Huton prepall, then hide

timber cape
#

you mean Hyton or Suiton?

proud willow
#

Huton, the haste buff

timber cape
#

oh

#

OH ok ok

#

I get it

#

you do this before combat right?

fresh lodge
#

Yes

timber cape
#

I thought you use Suiton to hide in combat and reset your mudras that way

fresh lodge
#

Nono

#

Suiton doesn't let you hide, it just lets you use Trick Attack

timber cape
#

tool tip is a bit confusing for brainlet like me

wheat plume

quest operation crucible down says I must use makeshift bomb but I dont have that item

also, I cant select the objectives when Im next to them

But you can't put a second one into the dresser

especially the greens

#

@scarlet hinge yes, its called emperor's new <item>

how u get

crisp ether
#

there's a quest if oyu have a level 50 DoH or you can buy em from the market board

leaden ginkgo
#

Why so?

#

I have some approved ones, but these were not approved

crisp ether
#

it approves in stacks o 5 or 10 i think

open rivet
#

because you need stacks of 5/10

leaden ginkgo
#

OH#

#

I see, ty

open rivet
#

grade 3 is 5, grade 2 needs 10

leaden ginkgo
#

that 6 stack didn't approve tho?

#

ooo#

#

gotcha

crisp ether
#

grade 2 probably

scarlet hinge
#

are they expensive

crisp ether
#

generally not too expensive

leaden ginkgo
#

I thought grade 2 was new nest, and we were on G3 now?

crisp ether
#

from the vendor they're dirt cheap but

#

the marketboard probably cost more

#

there's Grade 2 Achievements, that's why you can still collect the 80 materials @leaden ginkgo

#

Gotcha, thanks all

@reef knot If you're playing in PS4, the complete edition, with base game and 3 expansions is half price this week

how do I check how many days of road to 70 have passed?

and that will most likely be the day you created the character

In the middle of playing my gf and I both got a server connection issue that booted us from the game.

is there a way for ask for help to a quest where I keep diyin?

what kind of quest

#

solo instance?

sage isle
#

@thick flume Same issue for me

wheat plume
#

no, 2 side quests very close to each other, with a fate close too

#

too much enemies to avoid diying

little swift
#

you know sidequests with sidequest icon are optional for the most part right

wheat plume
#

yes

little swift
#

well in that case to avoid dying

#

you're going to ahve to maneuver their line of sight a bit better

#

or finish the fate

#

to clear it out

fresh lodge
#

Used your ranged attack to pull individual ones away from the group

wheat plume
#

someone from novice chat helped me, thxs anyway. Bet even with him (30 levels more than me) killing everything, there were so many enemies I almos died twice.

#

It was a lvl 48 side quest, are all side quests from now on going to be as hard as this one?

jade quartz
#

no sidequests are really designed to be difficult...

#

what was the quest, exact situation, and what class were you?

wheat plume
#

I'm Dragon 49

jade quartz
#

don't forget about your chocobo companion, by the way. Its healer skills are helpful in situations like this.

#

do you have your job gear?

#

Drachen helm, gloves, legs and boots, plus a weapon and chestpiece that are level 40-45 or over?

#

Also, are you being careful to pull few mobs at a time and distance yourself from others/sneak around them with line of sight?

#

plus Second Wind and Arm's Length from your role actions pool

wheat plume
#

Side quests were both lvl 48, one is The Way the crystals crumble, the other was something cuttroath, one was defeating an enemy, the other using bombs in 3 crates

obsidian patio
#

Bloodbath too

jade quartz
#

oh yeah bloodbath

wheat plume
#

But too much enemies, and even If I could kill one by one to advance slowly, there was a fate with more moving enemies at the same time

gritty oracle
#

arm's length is like a baby tank cooldown but you can access it on DPS

wheat plume
#

I was with chocobo companion

jade quartz
#

What about the gear?

wheat plume
#

Yes, I have the dragon armor that was given to me in the job quest lvl 45

gritty oracle
#

oof if there's a fate in range, just back off and wait for the fate timer to run out.

jade quartz
#

well then avoiding enemies and only engaging as necessary is just a skill to learn

wheat plume
#

The timer for the fate ended and 1 minut later it started again

#

The fate being there killed the pace I had while killing enemies 1 by 1

#

My chocobo companion is for attacking, and I've started to use him just 2 hours ago.

jade quartz
#

Yeah that's at the area of Western La Noscea with the pirates FATE for Sahagin beast tribe dailies.

#

There are a lot of mobs there

#

but by paying attention to their ranges and line of sight, it's very doable.

wheat plume
#

Also, are you being careful to pull few mobs at a time and distance yourself from others/sneak around them with line of sight?
@jade quartz yes, all that

jade quartz
#

just takes some getting used to

wheat plume
#

but by paying attention to their ranges and line of sight, it's very doable.
@jade quartz Yes, everything was easy, just 1 by 1, but fate was horrible in that place

#

But, if I am in any similar situation, is it easy for ask party for help? I'm kinda noob at the game and don't know everything yet.

jade quartz
#

yeah people in Novice Network are usually willing to help with that as it's relatively low-effort for them

Grand Company FAQ

Which Grand Company should I choose?

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:

Grand Company Gear

How do I get Grand Company Seals?

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.

obsidian patio
#

Grand Company hunts are unlocked once you promote to 2nd Lieutenant

wheat plume
#

And how do I unlock 2nd lieutenant?

obsidian patio
#

You promote to it by talking to the personnel officer

#

And they’ll tell you what to do and how many seals you’ll need to pay

wheat plume
#

Grand Company Hunts that give grand company seals are the same as the hunts that give centurio seals?

obsidian patio
#

Different hunts

wheat plume
#

Personnel Officer is the one who gives hunts to earn Company Seals?

analog gate
#

actually i was mistaken, the green/white one is allied seal, not centurio

wheat plume
#

And how can I get allied seals?

analog gate
#

still hunts, but only ARR ones iirc

wheat plume
#

So, we have 3 kind of hunts, the ones that give allied seal, the ones that give company seals and the ones that give centurio seals, right?

i500 comes from savage raid and upgrading the current capped tomestone gear

patent citrus
#

I've seen in one of the guide video but can't identify which one is it

jade quartz
#

plus three in the "level 1" category

patent citrus
#

I think i found it, it's called ultimate anarchy ty ty

jade quartz
#

I don't think any of them really look much like Dreadwyrm but Odune and Ruby Sawback would be closest

crisp ether
#

the uwu weps look so good but i dont think i'd ever be good enough to do uwu

patent citrus
crisp ether
#

yeah thats definitely an uwu wep

#

they all glow bright white

jade quartz
#

That's TEA

patent citrus
#

what's uwu stands for?

jade quartz
#

not UWU

crisp ether
#

ultima weapon ultimate

analog gate
#

UWU weapon is ARR relic ultima right?

agile laurel
#

there are no uwu/ucob weps for gnb and dnc

jade quartz
#

Yes, but that's not an UWU weapon as ^

#

it's from TEA--The Epic of Alexander (Ultimate)

crisp ether
#

ah

patent citrus
#

oh šŸ¤” nice

crisp ether
#

it looked like an uwu wep

jade quartz
#

it doesn't

agile laurel
#

i mean let's be right there's technically no base forms of the weapons for gnb and dnc for TEA, they just model ripped some green weps and applied the TEA glow to them

jade quartz
#

it's got the gears effect

crisp ether
#

ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

agile laurel
#

but i digress

crisp ether
#

i wasnt payin much attention

jade quartz
#

yeah the base model is some dungeon gunblade

patent citrus
#

hmm what's the requirement to join these TEA(Ultimate) group šŸ¤”

#

do we have any guide somewhere?

vocal shell
#

Need to have cleared E4S

#

To unlock it

#

and people usually ask for high-ish parses and have finished the current raid tier

#

From what ive seen

jade quartz
#

If you aren't even familiar with what it is yet then you're probably not at the level to be joining up

#

ultimate fights are the hardest content in this game, and clearing one typically takes over 100 hours of progression with a static of capable players.

patent citrus
#

i see, ty ty

agile laurel
#

yeah ultimates require absolute perfection on mechanics, very high gameskill and proper coordination in the group

#

At least TEA doesn't require you to know how to play your job at an old max level

crisp ether
#

imagine alliance raid ultimates

agile laurel
#

wouldn't mind it ngl

patent citrus
#

for gearing, just get the recommended one right? like ilvl 500 and the respectful melding

agile laurel
#

no

patent citrus
#

since it's sync'd down not sure what should I get

agile laurel
#

TEA has a lower ilvl sync

#

you probably need to look this stuff up if you have any serious plans to try

jade quartz
#

yeah there is TEA-specific BiS

patent citrus
#

ah alright, i'm still doing all the blue quests after finishing msq hehe

#

okay i'll look it up

jade quartz
#

but look

#

if you can't already farm current savage

#

you're not gonna be doing ultimate

agile laurel
#

one does not simply hop into ultimate

#

boromir meme aside

patent citrus
#

ok ty ty

#

so basically get all 475 ilvl gears and put respective materia? (VIII)?

#

the idea is to avoid get sync'd down so the materia bonus isn't lost

little swift
#

not all 475

#

because not every 475 piece from heroes gauntlet is something your job would want

small rampart
#

is there any dungeon I should not unlock?

#

or the more the merrier?

little swift
#

no reason to not unlock something

#

it'll appear in one of your roulettes if its normal/hard content

#

ex/savage/ultimate won't but it'll be something to work towards if you have interest

proud willow
#

there are some dungeons and trials that annoyingly stick around in your Journal until you run them once

#

but that only matters if it bothers you

gusty pasture
proud willow
#

no, Gubal Library gives more XP than those

obsidian patio
#

Run gubal normal, the level 59 version

gusty pasture
#

Ohh really? does it apply for 50s and 70s as well?

#

I mean, the post-xpac dungeons

polar hound
#

Yes

gusty pasture
#

Ahh alright thanks I didn't know these dungeons didn't give a lot of exp

polar hound
#

Those were released when those were the lvl cap so have little exp

gusty pasture
#

aye ty will spam gubal

jade quartz
#

Those dungeons are designed to give tomestones instead.

small rampart
#

sightseeing log unlocked

#

im keep getting surprised what kind of things in this game lol

jade quartz
#

Make sure to unlock the Challenge Log if you haven't yet

#

it's big chunks of free exp every week for doing stuff you'd be doing normally anyway

little swift
#

also money

#

it gives gil

#

a sizable amount

small rampart
#

oh

#

beast tribe quests unlocked

#

whats this

jade quartz

Daily quests

#

to increase a reputation rank and unlock story and some items from their shop, including some handy crafting materials that aren't bought from any other vendors, and of course a unique mount for each tribe

small rampart
#

mount

jade quartz
#

Ye

#

which tribe are you doing?

small rampart
#

sylph

jade quartz
#

yessss

#

goobbue mount

small rampart
#

I finished main quest 2-3 days ago

#

ARR

#

since that I decided to do only blue quests

#

cuz I havent done any non MSQ since like 15

jade quartz
#

it has a sneeze action

small rampart
#

pog

rigid narwhal
#

so i'm finally getting around to gathering, does gear really matter when i'm just using the diadem for leveling?

#

cos so far all i can see is lvl 10 gathering nodes

#

so idk if it matters

small rampart
#

about the beast tribe reputation missions...

#

is it just 30 points a day?

#

I thought u can do like 12 mission daily

#

but it stopped giving me after 3

jade quartz
#

12 missions total

#

you can be ranking multiple beast tribes at a time

small rampart
#

oh 12 mission to max it

jade quartz
#

no

#

12 quest allowances daily spread across all the beast tribes

small rampart
#

ohhh

jade quartz
#

so you can do three quests for four tribes

small rampart
#

how many beast tribe out there?

#

ARR

jade quartz
#

five in ARR, three in each expansion

small rampart
#

damn

jade quartz
#

four combat, one crafter tribe in ARR.

#

HW has two combat and one crafter

#

SB two combat and one crafter/gatherer

small rampart
#

I assume the Sylph one is the crafter

jade quartz
#

ShB one combat which gives double exp, one crafter and one gatherer

#

no

#

Ixal

small rampart
#

lol

#

that doesnt make sense knowing those tribes

jade quartz
#

It does in their story.

#

Meaning you do them as a crafter class, btw.

small rampart
#

oh ye I should stop only reading MSQ and read stuff like this

jade quartz
#

rather than a regular combat job

small rampart
#

okay unlocked another stuff called palace of the dead

#

is it something I should do?

#

I understood what is it, rather question how much is it worth doing?

tardy bay
#

is potd still a descent option to get from lvl 60 to 61?

fresh lodge
#

I'd recommend doing Library instead

tardy bay
#

25 minute que here I come

glossy flare
#

@small rampart potd is a solid alternative for leveling alt jobs when the dungeon queue is too long

#

Which most likely happens with dps jobs

rich bay
#

@tardy bay

If you can access Heaven-on-High, you should do that.

tardy bay
#

heaven on high is dead content on shiva

rich bay
#

Oh? HoH is cross-server content.
I do it quite often on the Light DC.

But yeah, unlocking it requires PotD floor 50 complete

open rivet
#

I'd do PotD & HoH anyway, just for the achievements

halcyon tulip
#

Isn't HoH 61+ ?

tardy bay
#

yes, but I'd have to start on floor 1

#

and no one ever does floor 1

honest anvil
#

is retainer gearing the same as normal gearing?

open rivet
#

pretty much

tardy bay
#

so theres nothing to do but 38 minute ques and waiting for roulettes

#

fantastic

rich bay
#

You can do HoH solo too, floor 1 to 20 are easy.

tardy bay
#

as a ninja?

glossy flare
#

as any job really

open rivet
#

do all roulettes, and you're looking at like 3hrs of playtime (half of that just MSQ roulette) every day

tardy bay
#

I have already done them yesterday

open rivet
#

so you can do them again today in like 3hrs

tardy bay
#

and untill then I'm stuck at lvl 60?

glossy flare
#

You can still do fates or whatever while sitting in queue

#

it's not like you have to sit on your hands while the queue is going on

open coral
#

Queue Gubal, do FATEs, Beast Tribes while you wait?

tardy bay
#

I've run out of fates to do during the now 40 minute que

#

the only thign spawning nowa re boss fights

glossy flare
#

What are you queueing for again? šŸ¤”

#

Gubal?

tardy bay
#

yes

patent citrus
#

dps? not potd/hoh?

tardy bay
#

dps

glossy flare
#

Well it's mostly because it's in the middle of the day I guess

#

Nothing you can do about it though

#

watch some netflix

open coral
#

Yeah, just the wrong time of day.

patent citrus
#

ohhh not sure about na population midday

glossy flare
#

they are on Light though

#

which is EU

open coral
#

It's very early morning NA. But it's early afternoon EU.

patent citrus
#

oh right, it's EU o_o sorry

open coral
#

But it's early afternoon on a weekday.

#

So people are likely working/doing school

patent citrus
#

yeah same here in JP. Unless it's 15:00 JP time onwards till 24:00, no chance getting potd/hoh going >.>

tardy bay
#

well, I tried to finish 1-70 in 5-6 days so I can prepare for university again
