the cogs are part of the glow.
one of the anima weapon stages for non glowy verison
I see. Thank you
You might like this, it has a more subtle glow compared to the rest of the relic steps.
!iglam Sharpened sphere of the last heir
It can also be dyed.
When I enter combat my pet names disappear.
But my settings looks like this
Cool found it
It's: Character Config -> Control Settings -> Target Tab -> Under Target Settings: Uncheck Disable targetting of pets and minions when in battle
Does nobody run the HW alliance raid? Me and my friend have been in the queue for almost 20 minutes and theres only a match for another 10 or so people
the heavensward alliance raid can seem less* popular because its not mandatory for msq (like the arr one) nor is needed for the current expansion relic weapon
what do you mean by level 40?
Less popular
got to lv 40 and someothing on my screen said I can now do something
couldnt read it because it was too fast
your job quest probably
that message appears every time a new job quest is available
so for ARR
thats every 5 levels
whats arr?
suppose i want to, lets say, visit shenpai on brynhildr server, and im on coerul. i can visit via aether crystal since the servers are on the same data center?
what's the command for fashion report?
ARR means the base game 1-50
if i have the entry sub, i can only have one character on one server?
so if i have a character on coerul, does that mean i have to make another character on a different server?
Yeah I think you can only make one character on a server
But I think you can still visit a server even if you already have a character made on it
I mean it doesn't really make sense if you can't world visit another server because you have too many characters on it
some people make alts just to see what clothing look like on other races?
Yeah
Yes you can freely world visit to any other world on the same datacentre
But not on a different datacenter ?
No
So I have collectibles unlocked and have been wondering how to unlock the Rowena's House of Splenders Timer?
Different data centres can't interact in any manner
If I create a new character can I go to a new one?
There is no splendor timer anymore
the house of splendors are no longer in the timer menu since they are static
oh that explains it
||when you get rescued after the banquet, does the guy that gives you and alphinaud a ride the same guy who gave you a ride when you first play the game?||
yes
okay
so if a skill does 100 and it says it does 220 with combo does that mean it does 320 total or just 220?
220
okay so
Uncomboed it does 100, comboed it does 220
on paladin total ]eclipse does 120 and prominence does 100 but with the combo it does 220? whats the point of combing it then?
explain becuase im not understanding
You hit total eclipse and then prominence
If you do 2 total eclipses, you did 240 potency
And then repeat
But if you combo
You do 120 + 220
For the same time
Its just more damage
Always combo
thats what I asked and you guys said otherwise
No it’s not
The first 120 is from the initial Total eclipse
ooo my bad I typed it out worng
The 220 is prominence
I meant to say 320 but put 220
Prominence does 220 damage when Comboed off Total Eclipse
Regardless of numbers, you always combo
so 340 total with both?
Combos always do more damage
If you add the potency of both skills together
120 from eclipse, 220 from the comboed prominence
For 340 in 2 gcds
Okay thats what I thought it meant
hey guys I unlocked role quests in ShB but I don't see any quests for it? is there a separate quest tracker for them?
The scenario tracker doesn't track them
You gotta go to where they left off
They start at the wandering stairs
ok cool
needed to complete the MSQ btw 
kk
is there an auction house and can I access it from anywhere?
im level 54 scholar and for some reason i dont have the lvl 52 and 54 scholar quests unlocked anyone know why?
i think the auction house is the market board
i know they have it in uldah
you need to be on the heavensward main scenario quest to be able to pick up your 50-60 job quests
same with stormblood msq and the 60-70 job quests
is heavensward after you complete praetorion if so i am
yes, its marketboards and no you can't access it from anywhere. you have to go to the market area of the major cities and interact with the marketboard @haughty spade
no, you're working on post ARR
how do i report someone for prepulling and trying to kill people by intentionally dropping the aoe in the backed away group
thats greifing aint it?
Heavensward is 80 quests after praetorium

I got this error when trying to start the game on steam, it says unable to complete version check. Does anyone have some sort of fix to this. Some help would be very appreciated
When they say version check can you restart your steam launcher (mine usually does that if my router goes out an I need turn off steam and on again)
I can try that
i tried doing some files stuff earlier so i hope i didn't screw it up
i already restarted my pc
do accounts still get a phial of fantasia at lvl 50?
only if they haven't gotten one before, or hit lvl 50 before.
damn restarted still same thing
thanks
@last kayak will i need to switch over to a full account to get the fantasia or will i get it on a free trial too?
When I press U to open the duty finder, I can’t see the “join” button anymore, it’s too far below and I can’t drag the window any higher. First time happening
damn can't play the game
will i need to switch over to a full account to get the fantasia or will i get it on a free trial too?
im pretty sure you get it as part of your lvl 50 MSQ, free trial or not
@modern herald couldnt tell you that :T
will i have to permanently use a vpn
i just googled it and pick one i liked the name of
deleted it once im done with it
i cant recall, sorry
all good found one
I'm at the point where I will have to choose a GC, as a white mage is there any single one that is more beneficial or are they all the same?
There's no functional difference
thank you
For BLM 80 what is the transition from Fire Phase back to Ice Phase? Normally I have enough mana to cast Blizz3 at the end of fire phase, but with Despair being the end point, I assume I have to go back to using Transpose just like in the AOE Rotation?
You blizzard 3
doesnt Despair eat all your MP similar to Flare?
Post 72 you get a trait allowing you to cast opposite element spells for no cost
!trait Aspect Mastery
oh shoot, I never noticed that xD
I think instead of transpose you should use Umbral Soul?
Though I can't say that since I've been lvling this BLM I've ever had a roulette above lvl 70 anyways...
Umbral soul is for downtime when you cant hit stuff to keep your timers running
you still gotta tranpose if you are stuck in fire phase after all the mobs die in a pack
Can’t drag the window any higher, thus can’t join any duty since the button is below. What can I do?
I believe the page up/down buttons resize on keyboard
change your UI scaling?
There's a button around the numpad to change ui size of what you have selected
... I'm sorry
What would be the best instance, unsynced, to go into if I say, want to take LB3 gpose pics?
Ifirit hard, give guaranteed lb3
yea i've like checked most forums and stuff
Hopefully this fixes it
cause otherwise i don't know what else will
Is server lag a common thing? I keep thinking it's my connection, but that seems fine
not really
hmm
whats your error?
Not getting an error... just lag spikes it seems, tho the character select screen says my connection is excellent
rebooted your router recently?
I'd say rubberbanding, but it's not...really.... just freezing and unfreezing
Yeah, earlier today actually
are you playing a foreign server?
negative, I'm on Crystal
connection is 10 ping, 120 down
that's why I assumed it was server side
hmm, I'm on Primal and havent had any such lag..
Do I only get Wolf Marks from the daily challenge? Is there no way to grind them?
You get wolf marks for every pvp match
the daily challenge is jsut a bonus
How do I get lvl 5 Petrify?
Just like with the bonus gil or exp from any other roulette
@slate crow Should be haukee manor I believe, 2nd boss.
Guide says manor sentry
to get the spell
you need to go for the last boss
and at 25%~
she spawns adds
and that manor sentry is the one you can force to cast AND kill
it casts l5 petrify at about 20% hp @slate crow
Is automatic echo something they just add to older content? Was doing orbonne monastery for the first time and noticed it
Ahh. How many wolf marks should I get each PVP match?
echo does get applied retroactively by patch iirc
so even some of the shadowbringers content thats not current patch will have echo
1k on win @leaden ginkgo 500 on loss
if you're doing frontline also 750 for 2nd place
Ahh, thank you
||did the latter half of heavensward foreshadowed/predicted the next two expansions?||
anyway to launch ff14 steam as admin
going through the files it just says i dont have a license
did they make each expansion shorter ? i feel like i’m flying through SB on my alt

How much is the sub fee exactly?
I saw it's $14.99 but it's also $12.99
I don't really understand how does the sub work
🤔 🤔 🤔
So if I want to play for 180 days do I just need to pay $12.99
Or do I need to play at least 180 days to get the price of 12.99
is there a way to earn some quick tomestone?
$13/mo sub for restricted monthly sub
outside of routtle
$15/mo sub for unrestricted monthly sub
I really want that 12.99
Sounds cheaper to me

No I meant the standard 12.99 lmao
Not the entry one
I want to buy riding maps but I haven't unlocked them yet, and the Hunt Board says I cannot participate in hunts. What can I do?
@exotic ridge that quest is optional
I might've missed this explained somewhere... but what're the colored circles in the upper right of some gear?
what are the different colors then?
go back to crystarium and do your role quest
the color applied to the gear at current
Oh I see, thanks
How can I get authorization for doing hunts from hunt board? And how can I unlock buyin Riding Maps from Hunt Billmaster?
Is it possible to solo extreme ||tsukuyomi|| as WHM?
@exotic ridge that's where the role quests are. it's the bar area of crystarium
Am I wasting XP by doing MSQ even if I am 80? or my priority is finishing the game first?
yes you're wasting exp
@mossy tartan As best I can tell, WHM currently cannot solo Stormblood extremes. In fact I don’t even think anyone can solo most of them at this point.
MSQ on preferred server is enough to level two lev 80s in parallel
Yeah my goal is to get my jobs get to 80
damage is a big problem for trying to solo sb extremes
no job afaik has enough damage AND sustain to survive the mechanics
How "quickly" did new wards sell out in smaller patches like these? I know when Shiro first dropped EVERYTHING was gone within like 5 minutes
Oof :(
The fight in question it’s usually suggested to go in with 6-8 players unsynced
8 is ideal, any lower and you actually need to know mechanics that aren’t “drop your meteor in your spot and run to the safe zone”
Afraid the instead of using the XP points for other jobs, I would have to grind them instead of making use what is given
Yes. If you attempt to claim a quest with an EXP reward while you’re at level cap, the exp from the quest is lost
I cannot do hunts from Hunt Board, it says I'm not authorized to participate. What can I do?
there's barely any grind involved for leveling alt jobs
have you reached level 50 khell?
Can some help me understand regional trade tokens for gatherers scripts. Theres one in the lvl 61 exchange for 5, but in the 70 items its 100
Sure you can do that fight with 4, but that requires me to know how to do the fight.
😛
you still need to do the comet mechanic properly
have you reached level 50 khell?
@little swift Yes, Im lvl 56, my rank in GC is Chief Storm Sergeant
(I actually have zero idea what comes after comets lmao I’ve only done it unsynced with 8)
Can some help me understand regional trade tokens for gatherers scripts. Theres one in the lvl 61 exchange for 5, but in the 70 items its 100
@severe tusk 1 of them is for the lv60 gather regional folklores and the other is for the level 80 folklore tomes iirc
@little swift Yes, Im lvl 56, my rank in GC is Chief Storm Sergeant
@wheat plume your rank isn't high enough
@wheat plume your rank isn't high enough
@little swift ok, thxs
Ahhh. All with yellow scripts? I know they change to white at 80
you can't buy the tomes with white scrips
How does the rested bonus XP scale with lower levels? Is it more value to use it up on a higher level job than a new one?
Is wanderers palace solo possible?
Technically yes, since it caps out at 1.5 times the level of your current job
Ah I see, I'll burn it on something useful first then, thanks
don't get doom
Yeah I’m just wondering if there’s a way to deal with that solo?
dont get doom
Dont give unhelpful advicd
There are ways to avoid doom
actually...i don't think I've ever seen doom in Palace Hard or normal, synced
The other method is just to kill it before you get hit with doom
So I remember wrong
or turn around
So clemency yourself to full
He will cast debuffs that makes healing worse and Doom random party members. Healers can remove doom by healing the target to full hp. Doom can also be negated by turning around as he casts the spell. Don't face the boss and it doesn't take effect.
When Scared Idol spawns (the Idol with a tether to the boss), kill it ASAP!
so if you dont look you dont get hit
Ahh
Will try it out thanks all
make sure you look away from those anyways
because thats a mechanic you need to dodge normally
alternatively swap to dps and nuke him even harder
It’s for the animated hauteclaire quest
yeah, learn that mechanic and just dodge it
Just heal yourself if needed
Its fine the rules are different in solo
channy is spoopy.
pls remove clemency off hotbar
clemency bad
For sure don't clemency the healer should get you
sorry channy i just wanted to roast you for answering a different question
This the #questions-and-help not shitpost channel
to be fair he did only ask about the doom
how was i supposed to resist the clemency suggestion roast
Heya guys, I saw almost all rotation guide on every class requires buff potions, is it really necessary for casual content? Or is that for savage only?
if you're aiming for early savage clears you might be coming across a tight damage check but most people just wait until they have a few more pieces of tomestone gear
people recommend it if you are going into a current fight with current gear. if you are overgeared, it doesnt matter
you'd also use them if you were going for a high parse
for example doing e5s during the first week
compared to doing e5s when members of the party already has gear from e8s etc
Good for pushing more numbers
oh, I see, so basically it is reccomended for 80 contents since lower content has synced gears?
assuming I have 490 ilv gears
Its not a necessity unless you're progging something on release
490 is 20ilvls over minimum to enter e5s
i think they use it in ultimates too since you cant unsync those
Ultimates are good for them because of how long the fight is
Can get 2 or 3 uses off
Okay so I never did the quests to unlock garuda and titan hard version, but now msq needs me to clear them to proceed
How do I unlock them? There was a quest at the waking sands but everyone's moved to mor dhona
the NPCs are still at waking sands
quest begins with "a recurring problem"
But Papalymo assigns you the quest and he's at rising stones
So Papalymo is in two places at once?
yea, this is also why the waking sands/rising stones etc are all instanced areas
instanced?
you enter a different map when you click the door
Like dungeons
so they can figure out which version of the waking sands/rising stones to load
Man it's making me clear all these raids first
Fuck raids, I hate raids
Man I'm calling it a night, I don't have the patience to slog through these rn

What level do I need to be to play music with a instrument
You have to play Archer up to level 30 and then unlock Bard
how do i know what materia to put on my gear?
so they can figure out which version of the waking sands/rising stones to load
@whole wasp So if I never finished all quests in walking sands, everytime I enter it I'll see the quest givers even if they're not suposed to be there?
yep
by a certain part of the MSQ, you will be blocked if you haven't done those quests
Can confirm, was just there like 20 minutes ago
They make you clear them out so that they can remove those NPCs
just wondering, if I were to buy a house if I already own one, what happens?
That's the reason why?
I figured it had to do with the story bringing it in and making sure it's contingent
However, there is at least one NPC who stays there beyond the point where it makes sense in the story
All you can do is ignore it 🤷♂️
Can I do ||savage eden titan|| without completing the ones preceding it?
I only want to unlock TEA(ultimate) through the former’s completion
yes you can just go straight to e4s
but you might want to consider grabbing so pieces of gear from the earlier edens if you're going to actually do it
if you're just unlocking for teh sake of unlocking it doesn't matter
just clear e4s
my current ilvl is 488
Hey guys about to upgrade my game from free trial. Is this the right product? Also do they just email me the registration code for this complete edition and enter it via mog station to upgrade my game?
Assuming your trial is a non-Steam PC trial, then yes, correct on all counts
i just bought the ghost item from the mogstation, i applied it to a piece of gear that i have. when i get new gear will i be able to apply it to that as well?
Yep! Using an item as the source of a glamour doesn't destroy it or anything
Assuming your trial is a non-Steam PC trial, then yes, correct on all counts
@proud willow yep it;s not steam. wew thank God. Alright thanks, just wanted to make sure
Also, if I remember correctly once you activate the upgrade, your game will go into a patching state so I don't think you're able to play
It's been a while but thats how it was for me
you can use it like that over and over, or put it into the Armoire in the inn room so you can make a glamour plate with that outfit
oh okay thanks :D
Glamour plates can be applied over and over without even needing to use prisms
yeah, just visit your inn and check out the dressing table
you can edit your glamour plate there
what is the standard dancer opener for when just after you unlock it?
cascade and foutanin?
just after you unlock it?
you want to standard step first
at 60 also make sure you dance partner
the standard is 425 hehe
@proud willow ohhh the code is not given in an instant?
what?
your code should come in the email
email will have a link that redirects you to the SE site
i only got two, not of wc has the code
it may take some time because its your first purchase
hmm you can check your purchase history
because they want to make sure you don't od a chargeback and that the payment goes through
like login to se store -> purchase history -> the complete edition you bought
ohh i dont think i can check the purchase history, cuz i checked out as a guest
is this gonna be a problem?
I'm sure it's not a problem, they need to do verification on some purchases apparently
Oh noes :(
Also i used a different country when purchasing cuz apparently my country isnt on the list of choices during checkout.
Hope this isnt gonna be a problem as well
I have no experience with that
it says they'll contact you, so just keep an eye out for another email
Whats the best way to earn gatherers scripts. Im kinda lost on gatherers collectibles
deliveries and collectibles 😂
it can take up to 48 hours for the code, your money didnt go poof just gotta be patient while they verify stuff
Ohh i see.. wow i didn't know it takes that long to buy a game.
In wow when ibought it it was literally instant
really? dam
not sure, mine took 10 mins 😂
it can, doesnt mean it will..but i wouldnt expect instant either lol
Could depend on how you bought it
i used a credit card but during checkout i used a fake country
cuz mine wasnt on the list
i mean i used USA, even though im not from there
do you get anything special for completing all the role quests in ShB?
titles are just achievements basically right?
the additional quest is 100% worth it for extra spicy shb lore/story
I mean, above level 60 you can't equip anything that's not for your class either way
@robust notch some of the shire accessories are for all classes
So just look for Fending gear with the highest iLvl while you level up
Shire is 60,i said above 60
Take note that crafted white rarity gears have NQ and HQ version
HQ version has stat matching their ilvl
typically higher weapon damage also means higher main stat though
So a high ilvl NQ gear might be bad
Hey everyone! Fairly fresh level 80 here, made it to ilevel 480 and was hoping to start getting into some group content but I am feeling a little stuck.
The party finder doesnt seem to have anything going for me and I only have one duty finder extreme trial unlocked.
Can anyone suggest any content I should be trying and how to find groups for it?
Thanks alot for any help! (any good video guides to watch would be appreciated too!)
if its just leveling gear, i wouldn't worry about nq or hq that much
quests give hq typically, but the gear'll just be replaced a few hours later anyways
The point is, don't buy lvl 64 NQ gear from NPC, because it is higher ilvl than your dungeon gear
High level of optimization is not necessary while leveling
do buy it if you don't match the ilvl restrictions for whatever reason though
But at least they should know what's what
hey dizzzy i'm in the same boat as you, how about trying the eden savage fulmination? 🤔
When I use a Fantasia, do I have the choice to load from a Save slot, or do I have to start it all over?
You should never buy shop gear above level 50
better than running the previous dungeon 10 times, trying to get the one piece you need
You should never buy shop gear above level 50
@robust notch and people should be made aware of the why
Ironworks from 50-60, Shire from 60-70, Scaevan from 70-80

And during that time leveling, you could find items from dungeons with slightly better stats
But I just desynth them
95% of your dps is how you play anyways
More like Ironworks to 56, Shire to 66, and Scaevan to 76
then the dungeon gear starts being better
aether compass should be a key item
Aether Compass should be in Key Items
oh, no wonder isearch won't proc it
if not talk to one of the inn npcs in Ishgard
aside from the extra quest and title, is there any reason to complete more than 1 role quest for ShB?
do they give you anything cool at the end
oh for sure, I didn't think they had a meaningful story attached
I think they give gears at the end the artifact gear for your class
ooh well that's a good reason to do them
It's actually quite important, lol after finishing those 4 roles you'll see there's something missing in the story
and the final piece of the puzzle is locked behind normal quest 🤦♂️
so int he beginning at dancer lvl 60, i just spam cascade and founatain?
it's like one of those raid quest chain in ivarice, the last piece of the story is unlocked by normal quest (not blue/msq)
Yes
anything specific for 75-79?
I am told that a skilled healer can ride augmented Scaeven all the way to 80
you can pretty much go all the way to 80 with aug scaveian gear
Because of how healing scale
ah ok
I DR'd my healer to 80, consider me skilled 😂
For others, if you are struggling, just supplement with a few dungeon gears
so i technically use scaevan gear till 80
Weapon, chest, and... Pants gives the biggest stat increase.
So if one happened to be available for loot, might as well grab them
since i reached 80 before unlocking ShB
@patent citrus is this that final role quest you were talking about?https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Shadow_Walk_with_Me
ye
cool ok
how to get skybuilder's mats?
go to the diadem and gather
diadem
im only geared enough for level 10 nodes 😅
well them mb
you can start the diadem at level 10
for gatherers
wait
yeah i think so?
its either 10 or 20
yes
it's 10
yeh so you shoudl be able to do it
any useful gathering macros?
Doubt there are any tbh
If you have a skill to increase gathering attempts or amount gathered per attempt, use them when you can
Beyond that, it doesn't matter
how to i add more hot bars in the game

You enable more in HUD layout
To change the actual layout of the hotbar, like from 1x12, 12x1, 3x4
You want to go for character configuration - hotbar
so, I'm lv 80 and Ilv 420 something. I need to get to 430 to do the next pieces of content - any advice as to what I should do to get the gear there? I know I can do roulettes to get phantasmagoria but not keen on wasting my xp bonus for other classes
marketboard, buy neo-ishgardian gear
am i allowed to put "LF levelling group (71-80) or to get to floor 50 to get da cool glowing weapon
Akari Kobayashi
i'm playing dancer
" in #603040765723148289
?
is there jobs where if you miss a positional it breaks combo?
just lower damage, but continues combo
DRG misses out on Raiden Thrust if you don't do Fang and Claw or Wheeling Thrust positionals properly, but I wouldn't call that breaking the combo since it's the final step before restarting
my lack of knowledge about drg doesn't let me understand any of what you've said
!action raiden thrust
**Wheeling Thrust** : lvl 58 DRG (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)
Delivers an attack with a potency of 320.
360 when executed from a target's rear.
Can only be executed while under the effects of Enhanced Wheeling Thrust and either Blood of the Dragon or Life of the Dragon .
Additional Effect: Extends Blood of the Dragon duration by 10s to a maximum of 30s
oh
!action fang and claw
**Fang and Claw** : lvl 56 DRG (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)
Delivers an attack with a potency of 320.
360 when executed from a target's flank.
Can only be executed while under the effects of Sharper Fang and Claw and either Blood of the Dragon or Life of the Dragon .
Additional Effect: Extends Blood of the Dragon duration by 10s to a maximum of 30s
basically if you hit your two positionals you get bonus damage on the next attack
Yes
SAM loses the most with 64 potency of damage for every missed positional
Granted, that doesn't say much since potency differs between jobs
To help you with positionals a bit, try to make a habit of using True North quite often
It really does help out a ton
You need to be level 50 for that though
!action True North
hey everyone . im stuck in WVR 65.
i have this question butterfly effect. im supposed to craft Elegant Bustle HQ . but my stats are not simply high enough to craft HQ. what do i do ?
What gear do you have?
What's the level requirement of said gear
im sorry im newb . can u tell me where to check that?
Next to the iLvl
Because if you're level 65, you should really have the 63 gear
Hmm..
I'm not great at recognizing crafter gear by icons only
What iLvl are your right sides?
Your accessories
oh sorry . ill write them for u
Because a 166 average is quite low for your level
You might also have to get some food to boost your CP
i dont think food will boost 230 to 480 etc.
i gues low ilvl is the prob like u point out
but where do i get higher gear??
kk i see them . around 200000 total for all
CP is quite key to making HQ items, so that's probably what's making it difficult for you
which is fine . dont mind if i can proceed with them
where can i get waist slot ilvl 430ish
@cedar compass Just buy Neo-Ishgardian
I remember some blue stuffs around that level can be put GP materia
It's iLvl 480
buy where? marketboard?
Ps4 controller players, how do you handle chat? Is there like a ping system or simple macros to use?
And if it's above 100k, don't buy it
You can usually world hop around your Data Center to find Neo pieces for under 50k
Same for you Oceans
Always worth world hopping to get stuff cheaper on the MB
Sometimes your home server has ridiculous prices
@robust notch kk . anyplace to check cheaper prices ? or i just trial and error different places?
https://universalis.app/ is usually quite helpful
Prices can be a bit out of date at times though
Really depends on what you're looking for
@fading pivot there are lot of premade msgs which you can send using a controller. and also manually type if you have patience/speed. i think u pres R1 with curson in chat box . look it up
@robust notch thish is awesome. ty!! ill get on it .
No problem ^^
I'm ilvl 439 with some neo-ishgardian pieces
shoulds i buy all the set
or farm other gear
i jsut finished ShB
well if you want quick, you gotta buy all the sets 😂
so im gonna unlock normal mode eden
and get the relic weapon
and allegory + puppet/factory coins (augmented crysta)
And any future relic weapon for other jobs is just 1000 Poetics
is it stronger than the neo-ishgardian longbow?
Yes
that's 500 ilvl for you per ewek
aight, thanks!
It's 485 iLvl with 5 Materia slots, and it'll be upgradable when 5.35 drops on Tuesday
Neo-Ishgardian is a great "starter" set for 80 content
just need to follow the blue quest
Although you'll be spending about 500k on the full set
since this is the first time im at current endgame ever, should i materia enhance?
or wait till i have the "best" gear?
you can, but it seems from my experience neo-ishgardian doesn't give much selection regarding materias
Materia isn't too hard to come by, but if you're short on cash, I'd wait
mine can only enchanted with crit/sks/det >.>
tbh i don't know how i got my money, all i do just do DR everyday and i got 4.7m 🤦♂️
so the neo-ishgardian set will be kinda expensive to get
Are you in an FC?
once you unlock all the stuffs, gil will flow easily
My FC has crafters you can ask to make gear for you which is usually cheaper
yeah but basically almost everyone is a sprout
Aah
the "vets" are kinda afk
@robust notch price differences upto 50k in different worlds. thx man . i would have wasted so much money 😛
Glad you got it cheaper 😄
im so gonna start flipping stuff 😄
Just a fair warning if you go the resistance relic weapon, it will grow "harder" to get the next upgrade.,
As in likely just more time needed.
They did hint at the upgrade being obtainable through Poetics and things like that though
So we'll see
Yes but if you were here during HW
You would remember how many poetics or ttomestones it took
pre nerf.
I started during 5.21 😛
Well
10th of June this year
you sweet summer chilkd
child*
Let me tell you the story
of tens of thousands of poetics needed.
for only a step or two, for the old hw relic.

You had to get the things that you traded in to get the other things that then you finally traded in for the thing you needed.
i think i got like 1.2k poetics from running dr everyday haha
That's cool.
So @cedar compass, my advice is to world hop and get the full Neo-Ishgardian set as cheap as you can for your first level 80 job, and then kinda work from there.
i don't know where to spend it since i don't do relic weapons >.<
I'll laugh if they end up making the non-bozja route a nostalgic replay of the pre-nerf HW days
You can spend the poetics on gear and stuff
to turn in for seals
desynth
I believe hw and SB still have their crafter vendors you can buy poetics from
if you want to make some of the older recipes.
If you have a lot of phantasmagoria just buy cheap neo ishgardian weapons because they give you the most tokens for your gil and trade them in
yeah i earned a lot, i converted them to hi-ether
and sell it to mb, many people buy them
Uh now that I realize
Check around on your mb, see if any materials are still selling deceetly.
Since I have DRK and BRD at 80
Yeah easiest way to get good gear
DPS queues aren't really bad on raid atm
Edens verse I spammed the hell out of when I had like 4 different jobs to gear
Nier raid is also an option, unlimited 460 pieces for Copied factory.
you can get one 490 piece atm for puppet's
What level gear do current times give?
The current endgame gear is
Current max is 505
480 eden normal, alonmg with the ishgardian stuff
490 from yorha
plus base crystarium (tome gear)
You can augment that gear or get the eden savage gear to obtain lv 500 gear.
Eden savage weapon is 505.
Is it hard to get into a static at this point in the patch?
Since I assume basically already everyone cleared
It is
I would wait till 5.4
as everyone wuill be fresh looking for new members.
or starting new statics
Wait till 5.4 and be ready to prog the new raids
Yeah, you'll have it easier in december
For now I recommend just gearing up best ya can, get self sufficient.
@fading pivot there are lot of premade msgs which you can send using a controller. and also manually type if you have patience/speed. i think u pres R1 with curson in chat box . look it up
@clear warren
Cheers dude
My launcher keeps turning my screen black, anyone know how to fix it? Just started today
Kk I'll work on gearing DRK BRD and level and gear SCH meanwhile
Try other savages to get the hang of mechanics
Idk what ilevel it will be tho
Also exes
That'll give me one for each role
Tbh I don't recommend sch for your first healer take whm
So Bozja will also be a gearing option outside of a weapon, I assume.
Bozja won't be above ilvl 500, that would invalidate the current raid tier
Didn't say it would
Bozja will be 495 most likely
Well my sch is almost 80
true
but it's already method of getting gear for the current tier
When is 0
plus it can be used for lv 71-80 leveling
495 vs 500 isn't too much of a difference
I'd definitely take bozja over spending 1k allegory
Yeah
eh why?
It always hurts, having to wait 3 weeks to get your tome chest whenever a new patch drops.
i thought allegory is bis
No
It depends
Some augmented allegory is BiS
Bis is either savage or allegory
Most of the time its a mixture.
depends on the job
oh really dam
yeah
Each gear piece is different
^
correct, i only gear 1 class now, all my other alts are 460ish
Same ilevel can have different substats.
Both are ilvl 500 so the main stats are the same, but they differ in substats
So it depends on what a given job wants/needs
my current class (gnb) doesn't have any bonanza gear so this is the first time i've heard of the gear set
I get aug crys for my main class, aug neo ish for my sub classes, and Eden verse for classes idc about
When's the next ultimate dropping? And unreal? Because I do wanna clear those tbh, I'm playing 4+ hrs a day but those don't sound puggable
It isn't even out yet.
Bonanza gear lmao
"Bonanza" gear comes out tuesday
Yeah, Bonzja only comes out next week
ah sorry bonzja 🤦♂️
I would not even think about an ultimate right now
Unreal is totally puggable
Try shiva rn it's easy
I mean you gotta clear the correlating savage tier to even unlock any given ultimate, so that will be a good teacher 😄
If you play dps shiva unreal is pretty much braindead
The hardest thing about shiva, is learning to not goof on staff phase
that's the only part that people always mess up on.
even all thr "weekly clear" partioes
it doesn't drop gear
So far I'd put Unreal trials somewhere between Extreme and Savage
oh does it unlock anything?
So it's not too bad really
Unreal trials aren't between extreme or savage
unreal is extreme
just scaled up.
I know, yet people mess up Shiva more than extreme stuff...
well each of their own hehe
and its the ilevel synch
some people probably underestimate
yeah fair enough
I don't really care much for the drops, I want to play hard content
being synched at ilevel 430 makes the dps check tight
Like so far everything has been a breeze
Ilvl sync is rougher than say, original shiva with ironworks gear
^
try minimum ilvl requirement pf
@cedar compass I suggest learning to do the most recent extremes and shiva.
I even did some ex trials synched and that was not that hard either
You can still get into Extremes for now Reethok, since those are okayish without a static
@cedar compass try doing all the hw/sb exes
yo0u have to do old trials min ilevel
People do those all the time
even old trials synched aren't the intended difficulty./
Shiva unreal is a good example of an older fight at "min ilevel"
While still being easy
tbh it's very hard to look for a group that only interested trying "hard" content without drops haha
The main rewards from unreal are a unique mount, minion, and some other things;.\
It means you have an issue with your system
hardest part is finding a group
You get those from a currency earned by playing a small minigame.
yeah
noone seems to want to do min ilvl stuff
that unlocks with each clear weekly.
@karmic niche does ur headset make a pop when it happens?
The mount you're honestly better off getting with a 3 line in wondrous tails because it takes FOREVER
I'm asking if it makes a popping noise when it happens lol
I got wonderous tails almost 2 weeks b2b, for the first tim,e in my life, got the mount

@cedar compass try out all the hw/sb exes unsynced, then you can do shb exes synced
I haven't even cleared shiva in like 2-3 weeks, everytime I try the people suck.
i was enjoying fighting yotsuyu then music and sfx just cuts off
And die over and over "for weekly clear"
My launcher keeps making my screen turn black and I dont know why @.@
I tried shiva unreal week 1 for about 7 hours before saying fuck it and going solo tank
Your party must have been very greenhorn if it took 7 hours
It was like 3 or 4 different pf parties
Week one had people who suck at the game trying it because it was new and nobody knew the difficulty
scrolls up
I think the Unreal discussion has gone on long enough to not really be a question anymore.
😂 true
Wait this is questions lmfao I actually thought this was general

@karmic niche there is a part in yotsuyu where the music does cut off
So if that was it it's not your fault
yeah it has 2 part i think
i think when she was 30%
3
that was weird
Music cuts off between phase 1 and phase 2
Yeah the music in that trial does stop for transitions
phase 2
The only time her music cuts off is the transition from 1 to 2.
i read somewhere that yotsuyu's ost reached rank no 1 favourite ost
then it changes to her main theme in the last part
It doesn't cut off in phase 3.
but it's not my taste 😂
then cuts off lol
it will be playing phase 2 but immediately transition to phase 3
can't even hear my own attack sfx
yeah
Yotsuyu was highest ranked when she came out, but I think that was recent bias.
One of the best but not the best imo.
yeah those ranking about music is always subjective o_o
is there any sense in running that far ahead in the castrum meridianum dungeon? idk if it speeds something up that i don't know, or if they just sprinted ahead to afk now
they ran there instantly
Afk probably
theeen the vote kick will come
didn't unintentionally want to kick someone who was actually doing stuff
How are they even there
If everyone is at ceruelum..that would mean the 2nd boss area isn't cleared yet
Unlesd im looking at this map wrong
nope, we didn't do the plating stuff yet
that's the first boss' area
I think that's where you have to blow up both pipe
that's literally the first boss' room, it looks like they were afk and are running to catch up
nope, they literally only stood around
so they were there when the first boss died?
they ran until there, stood still waiting for us to come back
we passed them by and they still stood there when we were waiting for the npc, so i initiated the vote kick ^^'
Yeah that's the first boss room
You run past it after the charges
They just didn't go into the shute
can i solo SB rank As with a lvl 80?
those hunt things are better done with many people
i shouted everywhere but nobody came 😄
hmm might be a bit hard to solo sb A rank by yourself
ya depends on the A rank, some of them can be a bit annoying to solo
like i solo'd one of the coerthas western highland ones, forget the name but it took awhile since kept getting frozen >.>
its Erle
You can try world visit to crowded server
and shout there and see if anyone can join
erle will be fine
Can weapons be glamoured? I got some sweet looking monk gloves from an early dungeon and I wanna keep them
yeah, you can visit your inn and click the dressing table there
Awww yeah
carry some glamour prism and the dye of your liking
anything you can wear, you can glamour
Cheers
guys its been 3 hrs already still no product key.. sigh.. has anyone experienced waiting this long before?
no :/
mine took 10 mins, but i made an account before making the purchase
and i didn't enter fake country
damn what a disappointment tsk2.. :(
can i ask for a refund instead? is it easy to process?
pretty sure it's not how it works, like for example i bought something from mogstation once
internet went down before i finalised the purchase and the money is debited from my account
after 48 hours, the money is returned to the bank since the purchase wasn't finalised
i'm not sure if other country has different process 🤔
Ohhh i see... sigh...
oh well i'll just wait it out, hopefully it gets refunded after 48 hrs
i guess ive no choice but to go back to wow
how does it work in your country
at least there purchase is instant
how does it work in your country
@patent citrus should be exactly the same.

what does "quest sync" in red on a aether current quest mean?
Is it just going to adjust me?
When do I get my first dg in heavenwards
Mhm
the lvl 51 dungeon is for an aether current quest in coerthas western
otherwise, lvl 53 on story
Ah ok ty
If we relocate our FC house, is there a timer on the old plot?
yes
all plots that are relinquished either via demolish or relocation go onto a timer
I saw something on google search that says relocation bypasses timer but I guess that’s wrong?
how difficult is paladin? and does it require a lot of actions per minute?
relocation does by pass the timer, yes
because you're technically not removing a plot from being purchase
Warrior might even be easier, but that's up for debate I guess
So if we are relocating the fc, that plot should not have a timer?
it will
someone who wants to relocate to your old fc's plot will not have to worry about a timer
someone who's trying to buy the plot, without a house, will have to
I see so I should purchase a plot first for personal and then relocate ?
if you want to take the old fc plot, then yeah you'd ideally want to already own a house first so you can relocate to it
rather than having to wait out the timer
Okay thank you
anyone with the retainer hutn venture scaling?
So when do I start farming for these weapons again
When When is the deadline
"Until 5.4 releases"
Not helpful
I keep forgetting
yes, that infographic is wrong its outer/middle la noscea and western thanalan. correct infographic is pinned in #general-discussion @cedar compass
