blue mage cheese works too right?
As long as its synced
thank you @faint flare im actually on that quest ๐ waiting for the duty finder
Lots of the bosses in hw fates are resistant to missile and such
is there any discord where i can find people to play together trials with ?
What is this icon?
Ah
Like Do Not Disturb
Fastest way to level as anything but dps is just spam roulette right
Roulette once a day for the bonus, highest level leveling dungeon after that
Spamming roulette doesn't work because you only get the bonus once and you might end up with super low level dungeons that give negligible exp after that
Up to lvl 50ish, you can get at least 1 level per 10min in PotD
At level 1-10, it's like 4 levels per 10min
Oh thats something else i was wondering
hi all, are beast tribe quests important to do 12x daily?
Is potd xp 1:1 with regular xp?
@manic schooner Depends. They are good for leveling, and if you want the stuff they reward (mounts, glamour, housing stuff, etc)
ohh i see.. they give some mounts? wow.. is it via their vendor?
POTD is good if your dungeon queues are long, since POTD queues are typically shorter
Yes, the mount is usually sold by their vendor when you're at max rank with them. At least for HW and up. Not sure about ARR tribes as I haven't done them yet.
alright thanks
People do PotD 51-60, then reset and repeat
Also from what I've heard beast tribe doh dol quests are decent ways to level and get their materials for cheaper than it costs from GC
Oh wait i shouldnt be soloing potd 
At that level, the queues are decently quick
you can solo, it's prob about the same if you have a slow group tbh, but would want the high lvl armor/wep pool to do that

Alright thanks 
no
how come i can't place out more items in my house? i should still be able to place out 31 items right?
thank you! ๐
nevermind, i just saw that the item in question was 1 per estate
can i hide my fc tag
what are the must-haves for housing? :> like the mini aethryte and so on
so i bought the service of a third retainer yeears ago, but stopped paying for it. is there any way to know what that retainer is hoarding without paying to just check?
how do i get the eureka armor
Hey, where and how does one obtain the new Bozjan gear?
I haven't seen anyone with it and can't find much info when googling it
Or I suppose more specifically, where do I get the Bozjan Coins used to purchase the gear? Are they just random drops from southern front?
What rank is needed to unlock castrum Lucis? I am currently resistance rank 7
Rank 10
I cleared with 28
Ah I see. Thanks!
We had 2 wipes on last boss and still cleared with 5mins left
When people get access to thr OP esseneses, lower can be acceptable
Without wipes we would have cleared with like 20mins left
Gangos
is it "the bozja incident"
i thought this was for the new stuff so k got confused
So my friend wants to sub but in mogstation he doesnt have te option to add credit card
only steam wallet
Do the blue quest next to it first
why is that?
alright?
If you go into bojza immediately you wont be getting drops
Yes
woah everybody sleeping on it
In bojza as well for 180 clusters
it must be bad (?)
Clusters take awhile to get
cluster are rare ish
i see
Even after the time o put on im only at 60
gonna probably be a while before anyone has enough to buy it
Weapon is easu
weapon doesnt take that long to get
that the weap requires less
Cause outside farming with heavenward fates is faster
No, not really. quest itself takes like 30-40mins
not for 485

Are Abroader Otter minion
rare? I see someone doing a giveaway on one of them in this server im in
can you only train someone elses chocobo if they are part of your FC?
Any roulette puts you in coil, primals extreme or odin?

Can anyone provide technical help here? I was lagging really bad earlier and everytime i try to log in now it shows me this https://gyazo.com/9b1252038f1896bfcb164b67be198a09
after I use Dragon Kick and get Leaden, should I continue till snap punch/demolish, or should I go Bootshine immediately?
Continue
Because you dont get bootshine guaranteed crit if you're not in Opo opo
Which is a large amount of damage
@wheat plume Odin should just be trial roulette, Don't think there is a Extreme trials roulette and as for Coils, you better just ask around or look for people with the party finder as i doubt anyone is doing the coils
North Star should be used for Leaden+opo form bootshine?
when is the "duty gauge" ever used?
@obsidian agate there are certain trials or duties that have some special skill for that
Duty gauge is usrd for stuff like bosses Charging ultimates and stuff
@wheat plume Odin should just be trial roulette, Don't think there is a Extreme trials roulette and as for Coils, you better just ask around or look for people with the party finder as i doubt anyone is doing the coils
@onyx kiln thxs
Odin is not in trial roulette
is it not?
@wheat plume Odin should just be trial roulette, Don't think there is a Extreme trials roulette and as for Coils, you better just ask around or look for people with the party finder as i doubt anyone is doing the coils
@onyx kiln Odin isn't on trial roulette thats flase
while its listed under normal trials, it is an extreme
my bad then
ok, noted
not duty action duty gauge
usually the charging shit is in the duty info
from what I rememebr
Duty gauge is usrd for stuff like bosses Charging ultimates and stuff
Its changed to duty gauge
In later instances
yesterday I was 4 hours in duty finder for odin, once it started but 1 healer didn't appear so it didn't begin.
Like Omega in o11
Some midfight dps checks use it as an indicator
That as well
Allagan Tomestone of Phantasmagoria, I use them to buy my gear but I cant buy a wopen for it? ๐ฆ
Its the part where ||you charge the shield||
oh
I only see a shield that I could buy from it. but no bow :/
normal
Weapons are a different vendor
As usual
You need 10 tokens of Phantasmagora and 1 lightweight tome gotten by trading 4 blades of early antique from eden 4
Is Bazjan Front good way to lvl 70-80?
Is there a southern front discord yet?
Yes, you can go 70-80 in like 6 hours
And links to some Bojza discords
How difficult is it to find queues for Ivalice raids now?
bozja is pretty decent exp
once im out of heavensward can i still do the aethercurrent quests cuz im missing like 23 in sea of clouds
yes
ight say no more. Also is the Front gonna less populated as time goes by? What are the chance of it becoming barren when next patch/expansion comes out?
Its likely less people will participate once they do what they have wanted to accomplish
Thats how it is with all old content
But groups such as eurekan explorers will help keep it up
hey guys do you know what those 0 1 0 numbers mean?
the number of parties looking for that instance/roulette in party finder
Ohhh i see.. thanks
Hey guys.. playing heavensward main story... forgot to click on the next guy to receive my quest.. how do I find it?
hey all, what materia is good for a dragoon? I have Savage Might, Savage Aim, Quickarm, Heavens eye, Battledance
Top left is the main scenario tracker
I'm an idiot
Crit > dh > det for drg
thank you so much.. been roaming ishgard for hours lol
dh = Direct Hit?
Yeah
been playing this game off and on 5 years and didn't know that lol
ok thanks
Do you guys think the make it rain event will have the regalia
Hello, I currently own from ARR to SB on PS4, and noticed that The Complete Edition is on sale and is currently cheaper than buying SHB alone. If I buy that, it shouldn't cause any issues with licensing, should it?
at lvl 66: besides duty roulletes, what are good ways to level up
i dont think i get potd till 70
potd isn't good after 60
HoH is for 61-70, if you have decent queue times though should queue for highest lvl dungeon
Im trying to use an ingame macro for a mount.. but gabriel a isn't showing up as a valid mount name
what is HoH
heaven on high, its pretty much the same deal as potd
Heaven on High!
but with a slight spin on it
where do you unlock that
ruby sea
no prerequisites?
Clear floor 50 of potd
need to have completed floor 50 of potd, and the msq "Tide goes in, Imperials go out"
alright ty
Anyone have an idea when the All Saint's Wake content usually happens? I'm on the road for work but want to try and catch some of it if I can. My favorite holiday! ๐
๐ฉ
Why didn't my last card turn his lower one?
Gaius has a +1, so it's 5 vs 5
When I reach the cap for allagan poetic stones what should I be doing with them?
!faq poetics
thanks!
Yes, +1 to all values on the card. It's part of the ascension rules.
what does spending 5 crystals and getting priority engagement do exactly
next time you register for it you'll guarentee selection im guessing
It puts you in the priority under people who participated in skirmishes
In case a ce doesn't fill from that
You would have prio after
Basically if you were playing you won't need it
more exp
I sold most of my forgotten fragments on the mb was that a bad idea? lol
That's fine if you want
You get lost actions out of them
But they're not a necessity
How do you use th GC to level a craftign job?
How do you mark people? I saw someone say clrt and F but doesnt work
You can target them, right click the target bar, and select Mark. It pops up a window with marks to choose from
Hi guy
You can also open that window with an action button. I don't know which section of the actions window its in off the top of my head though
ill try it but I think I may be talking about something else
The Armoire only stores some specific equipement, like items from past seasonal events and some AF armor
Oh, in the dresser when you're on the plate window, there's a button that says something like Switch to Armoire
this icon indicates whether something can go into the armoire or not
so yes lady's yukata can go into it
click the drop down menu on the glamour creation window
Is there a "best way" to train your Squadron?
You also need more glamour prisms
Last question
You can't put items into the glamour dresser without prisms
No
for skysteel how many mats do i need for both upgrades?

20 items for step 1 30 for step 2
Step 3 and 4 depensa on how high your collectability goes
assume max collect
Potentially minimum 18 with max collectability
for step 2 how many?
Step 4? Havent put in the time for it yet not sure
saw someone mention the dungeon earlier, but haven't found the unlock yet - where do I get Stone Vigil Hard?
if anyone knows offhand, don't need to look it up for me or anything
Do you have Retainers?
It says right there. You haven't hired any retainers.
You need to go across the hall and hire a retainer
I thing not
There's a retainer person at one of those booths
ty
You can't do it on free trial tho, fyi (dunno if you bought or not)
Retainer Vocate is who you're looking for
Do stat buff pots share a cooldown with mp pots?
Is it better to use mouse-over macros or manual input for healing?
Manual
Macros suffer from not bejng able to queue
But nongcd macros can be usable
That's what I thought. I didn't know if it changed recently. Thanks ๐
does the DoT become stronger if you use any damage boosting skills. And if so, does that boost remain after your buff go away?
oh oh oh, that reminds me... can you queue skills? lol.. a healer yesterday mentioned queueing a heal... and I'm just sitting here spamming buttons
Spamming is how you queue yes
oh
But macros suffer because its not possible for them to queue
To hire them? No, you get 2 with the paid version of game
If you want more you need to add to your monthly sub cost
About 3 bucks per retainer
hey, are the bitter memories guaranteed drops from lvl 60 dungeons?
FF14 is doin the same thing with check update version again, its to the point where i have to redownload the entire game every time i want to play it, I've searched through forums and reddit posts to no end and have yet to find a solution. Does anyone on here have any fixes or advice?
whats the shortcut to focus target
how efficient is leveling in the southern front?
Is this the right channel to ask for help, and can i post reddit links to My post that explains my problem in depth?
Is there any way I can take my personal house and make it my FC house?
how efficient is leveling in the southern front?
@modest igloo pretty good from what i've been hearing. 71-80 in 6 hours
@pale goblet did you update internet explorer
if your FC buys your house after its been relinquished yes
I don't use internet explorer i use Chrome
this is specifically for red mage i500 weapon, but what melds should I be putting in it
And i should have probably stated its the steam version @remote lintel
@pale goblet update it
the game updates via internet explorer so you gotta
So, I put the cat as my last card
I assumed that it would turn the two engineers which in turn will turn the two nearby cards into blue too
what went wrong?
So og internet explorer and not Edge
you didn't activate the conditions for plus
@little swift but can't anyone just snag the house before the fc
if they spam the hidden timer more?
which are?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/2wzo9j/triple_triad_same_plus_and_combo_explained_for/
@dawn cradle
677 votes and 135 comments so far on Reddit
that's so frustrating
I managed to cop a plot for my FC yesterday somehow
but yeah it's pretty terrible
โค๏ธ
I woke up super early the day of the patch
to get a house for the fc
but my officer role
@pure iron yes potentially
that's unfortunate :/
so i bought it for personal
thats on your FC for not adjusting the rank permissions

I made sure to give perms to all my officers
I stayed up all night for the update
and stayed at a plot for 10 hours
some guy walks up and chats with me
and he got my plot
i managed to cop a plot in a better location just randomly
but it's very much luck based tbh
yeeepp
not a discussion for this channel
i should at least have the ability to offer my personal house to fc
while i agree, its not the place for it
yeah
fair, thanks for answering my question
which one?
there are 2 i500 ones
!item talekeeper recollection

3 dhit 2 det? i think would be fine but it might be wise to consult the balance spreadsheets
according to the balance it's a -.3% dps compared to edenchoir
is it already on there?
Do i just download it through the help menu On IE @remote lintel
not sure they've mathed it out yet

how do you add single hotbar slots?
you add a new hotbar and hide teh slots you don't use
ooo
Thanks for the link btw
I didn't know combo only applied if plus or same occured first
I'm a little confused on what makes you lose lost actions. I haven't touched them because I don't wanna waste anything
@little swift ok thanks!
@acoustic copper thx chief
take the trolley
np dude
at twine
for relic weapons easiest way atm is to farm FATEs and antitower afaik
where i can take it =-=
for anyone else who is curious
at twine
You're in a party with someone else, and they are the leader
Is there a way to put hoods on for gear that has hoods?
like the Ironworks Scholar chest
chest pieces do not affect the head
Why does it have a hood then if I can't use it, ree ๐

but I wanna use the one on the back of the chest ๐ฆ
Didn't know if it was part of the visor thing I haven't figured out yet
so bozja is just group fates? I'm late to the party is this the best way to go?
yes just like eureka
accessories?
can we still get red gatherer scripts ?
@leaden ginkgo no
Are there discords for castrum runs yet?
A few, eurekan Explorers have some links
roughly how long is each finished bozja wep
is it possible to go to potd floors i previously completed?
By resetting your save/using another save file
Thanks
Some floor sets give +1/+1 when you complete them, like floor 50 and 100
im kinda screwed since i spent my aetherpool on grips and cant progress
I think also every challenge floor boss past 100 too
floor 1-10 farm time
everytime you trade in aetherpool for a weapon you gotta farm lower levels again
which is why i hate potd lol
well i think the weapons are like
Stay around 20/20 to be able to keep doing floors 51-60
50 for the first one
Padjali wants 3 grips, with Kinna wanting 6 and the padjali
So 30/30 for the first one, 60/60 for the second plus the original 30/30 which makes it 90/90
Do I need rank 10 to get last type of bozjan memory?
Yes
Unless you mean Bitter, then Iโm not sure where that drops in bozja exactly
About to cap on GC seals, anything important I should be spending them on or should I just buy the emotes?
Pretty sure the dying stuff drops by area
Like first is first area, then the nexr is the middle then the last one is the north arra
Iirc sorrowful in first, tortures in second and bitter in the last area
hello, just wanted to ask if anyone know any Trading discord for final fantasy ?
Can you name the black chocobo Haurchefant gives you?
no
;_;
Well then wtf am I gonna do with it, I already have Haj, my company chocobo
Can I like put it somewhere? Idk I feel bad just doing nothing lol
your company one used to not be able to fly
Ye but it can now
cuddle it and call it a good boy
Didn't someone mention stables or something? Chocobo stables?
you can't stable the black one
Oof
Guess I'll just have it sitting in my inventory or whatever for eternity
Haurchefant better not go asking me how his chocobo's doing oof
Just like those pokemon that live to sit there in a box for the rest of time
Yeah but those Pokemon get thrown on wonder trade lmao
@sour ruin I recommend focusing on promotions first until you reach Sergeant 2nd Class, if youโre not already that rank or higher.
For Gil items Glamour Prisms are a good staple item that keep a consistent price and demand.
does anyone know any Trading discord for final fantasy ?
None that I know of, if you mean just buying/selling items
Wynne I'm already at Sergeant second class and I can't seem to go higher than that
Thank you
how do I turn the padjali katana into the kinna katana?
Hi all!
I just beat what I assume is the Heavensward boss and am at 60, is it worth it to grind out the 2600 or so poetics Ill need to finish my Shire (270) set?
you don't need a full set
No? What do I need then? I have the katana, the jacket, and the gloves
@obsidian patio yeah buying/selling outside the market
@stable hinge you need to get to floor 100 first, iirc
How much perception should I have to farm level 80 collectables?
Once there the padjali gear vendor should have an exchange for 6 pommels and the padjali katana for the kinna
@hardy mauve whatever you can buy
@remote lintel As in, buy what I can now and dont worry about grinding more poetics? Should I prioritize armor or accessories?
armor generally
Okay, cool, I think I have enough to mostly finish the armor
whats the main games max level
ARR? 50
what is free trail max level
60 iirc
yes
How do you make an FC Member a Recruiter?
i say make the game 100% free to play
Ah, thanks!
what are the main fate farm areas?
They wouldn't make any money if the game was 100% FTP
for the relic
What am I supposed to spend all these allagan tomestones on :/ I already have the ironworks stuff

!faq poetics
how can i only use one of the WXHB? I dont want both just the L2
If I'm doing heavenward fates for bozja will I also get drops for the animus weapons ?
is there any reason to turn in gc provisions past lvl 80?
@leaden ginkgo hell no. I can imagine the market
@austere meadow you can't
i found an eyeball
@austere meadow you can't
@remote lintel That sucks, they should add the option.
dumb question but are the level 70+ class quests worth doing
i haven't done like any of mine
I'm dumb what's a GC seal?
@acoustic copper they're required
oh
wait no i meant like
specific quests
i know they're required for shadowbringers
wasn't sure if there were class specific quests past 70
there's a lvl 80 job quest, but its optional. gives some materia, a title, and is basically like a wrap up quest
ok gotcha ty guys
I just got the rice paddies in Doma Enclave done. How far into restoration am I?
About halfway through, IIRC
Hello, I just joined the server mostly because of one question. Once before I got the game gifted with all the expansions it seems, but I don't have any of the collector's edition. If I buy each collector's edition will I get a month of subscription with it?
Thank you 
if you're in the middle of stormblood and you managed to go up to 72, can you get the skills from shb or you have to complete the entire stormblood story
the story
got a question with regards to housing once again. i currently own a house and lets say i want to buy a plot/house from someone, can i use that for relocating and use that as an fc estate or do i have to buy an empty plot?
The 72-80 skills donโt need MSQ or class quests to unlock
@jaunty wind you canโt convert a personal house into an FC house
oh right it's just role quests
whats the achievement that gives you the 30% exp earrings
@obsidian patio i am aware thats why i mentioned that i currently own a house and am currently asking that if i relocate, is it possible to use that as an fc estate instead of personal
Do note that itโs actually 10%. The 30% is a text error
Relocation doesnโt allow you to change the status of a house
what gives the most gil
hmmm so does that mean that i have to buy an empty plot then?
Yes
and should i relinquish my current land, will there be a hidden timer once again on the plot?
Not much, really since you canโt use the marketboard to sell to other players
Or trade
That too
best gear for level 60 gathers ?
damn thatโs a lot of scrips do you have any recommendations on how to get those ?
best gear for level gear dragoon
Do giant cycles of all the available collectables that the scrip people want
@leaden ginkgo what level are you?
Whatever highest level stuff you can wear
Just make sure the gear says itโs for โDisciple of Warโ
Or it lists LNC/DRG as part of the classes that can wear it
For accessories you want stuff with strength on it
what master crafting tomes are worth getting ( also which one lets me craft the ||shynru|| stuff )
SB primal weapons are the 6th book
7th and 8th are the current endgame recipes so get those if you want to craft endgame stuff
4th book has the HW primal weapons
1 and 2 are ARR recipes and donโt really have much worth noting in them
3 is start of HW and is mostly just outdated baseline 60 gear
did any more information come out on the monk rework asides from the comment about greased lightning?
All we know is what was said on the live letter
ah i didnt look at it why I asked lmao
My guess based on what they said is to make GL passive same as the range and casters have,
Make tornado a OCGd
Remove SSS or change it so it enables you to tornado
Make Anatman generate chackra
As a bandaid fix untill 6.0
As I see no way they are drasticky changing things only to rebuild and add stuff in 6.0
can I use excess memories from Bozja for other weapons after I upgrade my first one?
Anyone wanna join heaven on high 11-20?
or do I have to accept the new quest and only then start gathering memories again
Can use for other weapons

which tank shreds lvl 60 dungeons the most?
also i'm guessing pharos sirius is the fastest lvl 60 dungeon?
Iโve seen people say arboretum
arboretum should be pretty fast yeah, since you can basically ignore that whole section leading up to the queen
It has been more than 24 hours and my new characters STILL do not have the account-wide Bennu mount no matter how many times I click "request purchase delivery"!!! Does anybody know what the problem could be?
If I use a Fantasia, do I have to ungear every job?
GNB is best low lvl dungeon tank
Only what youโre currently wearing
PLD miss half thier rotation
moltres contact support if this is a problem you're having
WAR cant genertate any gauge at low level
or maybe clear out any mail you have in there already
you can't receive more items than there is space for
DRK does not have access to defensive stuff
GNB have all this at low level
It WILL NOT let me go to the support page. I ALWAYS get the following error message
We apologize for the inconvenience.
*There may be a technical problem. Please try again later. *
try a different browser
What is Eureka and how do I unlock it?
does buying priority only last for one recruitment?
So, similar to Palace of the Dead and Heaven on High? without the changing dungeon layout?
But how do I unlock?
not really
@obsidian agate yes
@weak flume "and we shall call it eureka" in kugane
Can I use squadron command mission for the second step of relic upgrade (lvl 60 dungeons)?
Ok, thanks.
@obsidian agate basically the queue system for CEโs work like this
1.Priority from completing the prerequisite FATE
2. Priority from buying it for clusters
3. Everyone else
Not sure on how the game tracks the buff as I never bought it
do I need to have the relic equipped for the second part of the quest? (level 60 dungeons)
mmk
Apparently thereโs a running gag that the wol is uncomfortable with feasts because of ||what happened at the end of arr where Nanamo gets poisoned right in front of their eyes||?
has anyone here bought priority?
What is priority?
priority as in order of importance
i don't see the value in buying it, unless you need to like afk for sec but don't want to miss out on potential CEs
i know what it does im just curious
does it give you a buff
is it only for one, does it disappear when you log off
or leave the duty
Iโm assuming just one time due to the low cost
man this Fantasia sure is taking it's time to get here
Did you click the "deliver stuff I bought" button?
yup
Then SQEX hates you
probably
Is your mail full of other stuff?
Nope completely empty
It'll show up eventually
Maybe they don't want you to change into a Lalafell or Hrothgar
Then it should be delivered with Express Next Day Air
wtf
But yeah, jokes aside, it'll show up eventually
That explains stuff though, when I changed from Lalafell it came pretty much instantly
Sometimes they're just quite slow
Could also be a problem with your payment getting verified?
I meant more on their side
But if it doesn't show up within a few hours, contact support
how long ago did you buy it
23 mins
just wait
I am
it's also peak hours so they're prob getting a lot of traffic
Why isn't the B rank hunt in Middle La Noscea showing up anywhere? Been searching for hours and tried all possible spots according to the wiki
Maybe it's a sign I shouldn't be Au Ra
maybe someone killed it so it spawned somewhere else while you were searching
I doubt that it is being killed that frequently. I spent at least two hours total during a stress test stream searching for it
Is there any etiquette if you pass a Hunt target but don't have a hunt for it?
idk what to tell you but keep searching
@oblique trellis no
or if you're just looking for seals try joining the centurio hunt discord
they post A and S rank locations
But it is pointless to slay it if it is not on your mark bills because you get no reward
is skysung the best or is Aesthete better?
I found a Bat yesterday that I assume was a Hunt target cause it was named.. didn't know if I should /shout or /yell the location or somethin
@proven pewter melded Aesthete is better
if it was huge then its probably an A or S rank which does give hunt currency when killed
nah it was smol, but lvl 50
more specifically pentamelded aesthete is better, but if you budget meld aesthete, skysung better
then probably a B rank
so are they worth getting? @little swift
Fantasia came, took off all my clothes, and logged out... I'm great at this
if you are hardcore crafting, then you'll probably pentameld aesthete for your preferences
How helpful or useful are the haste items in the Bozja?
(Like the earring or augmented armor)
but the skysung can be an alternate investment that can save you some money
especially in your non-specialist crafters
When I am by the cookpot, it always senses the mark northwest but at Seasong Grotto, it senses south even though Seasong Grotto is south of the Cookpot. Where it is telling me to go to find this B rank is VERY contradicting
me for example, i'm only pentamelding some of my aesthete
clearly its within that area
and you're not precise enough in your movements
just make circles around the area
ill prob just get them for the achievement points
But those hints are completely opposite from each other. The hint at the northern location tells me to go more north, the hint at the southern location tells me to go more south
just follow whatever hint you got more recently
Can I call the aesthetecian from anywhere aside from an Inn? (Or house which I don't have)
you can put a crystal bell in your house
if you have a crystal bell you can call it from within your estate yes
Well I just found it by a rock and it was not there a few moments ago
they can wander around
maybe someone killed it
Weird, somehow I cannot unequip gear from my retainer
if its a b rank it has a 5 second respawn time
Its the gear bought from the NPC
is it unique
what does it say when you try to unequip it
Do retainers earn more XP if you choose the 18 hour option than repeatedly choosing "quick exploration"?
"Unable to equip gear. Retainer is currently occupied"
quick exploration exp is based on what they bring back so yes
is your retainer out on a venture?
your retainer is doing something

@calm phoenix on average, yes. Quick ventureโs exp reward is based on what they get back

thats what i said 
Sorry, discord lagged for me ;x;
what's the shortest lvl 60 dungeon? 
Query! I'm trying to make my first few million Gil to get a house but questing seems to only have taken me a small portion of the way there. I've been digging into progressions and the market board but I don't have a lot of direction :P anyone have suggestions for a method of making Gil?
Zonureskin treasure maps with a party is one of the better methods for combat classes
You buy them from the marketboard or get them from level 80 gathering nodes
Ah okay cool! I will do that. Thanks ! :)
do i get more exp from later levels of PotD than the beginning levels?
and GCD
because queuing for the levels 21-30 takes forever
@hope off global cooldown and global cooldown
I cannot send my squadron out on missions because they are "training" but they have been training for a week now! Does anybody know what the problem could be?
oGCDs are abilities and GCDs are your spells an weapon skills
@calm phoenix you need to take them out of training
How?
@calm phoenix you gotta collect their training exp
They finished long ago. Interact with the training board
is there a difference in exp between the different levels in Palace of the Dead?
Yes
But most people stick to spamming 1-10 and 51-60 for experience
As they have the fastest queue
Is the behemoth fate in central coerthas soloable?
so i tried digging through the reddit, which brought me here: as a new player (lancer, level 23) during dungeons I find myself getting stuck up switching targets in fights, I find that between the tank, and 4+ mobs to right click, i either click the tank, or nothing at all and not fighting anything
any tips to making DPS combat more fluid for new players? automatic aggro switch upon killing an enemy? anything helps, i hate missing the targets and just standing there frantically clicking
Are you on mouse/keyboard or controller?
Donโt click
Use tab to target on keyboard
Or click on the enemy list on the side of the screen
is there a way to mute a linkshell temporarily? its clogging up the tab its on. unchecking it from the list in settings doesnt seem to work.
is the only option to delete the whole tab?
Someone solo'd in back in stormblood but its definitely going to take a while @strange coral
Well someone showed up and we duo'd it. It was sitting right on top of my quest objective for a level 50 job
yeah mouse and keyboard, ill try tab. someone else rec'd to click on the enemy list, but that usually only shows one enemy on it, not all aggro'd enemies at the time
It shows all aggroed enemies@jaunty void
If you donโt see an enemy then you and your party donโt have aggro on it.
odd, tab feels good, and Ill keep an eye out for the list
anything for automatic engage? i.e i kill a monster, then i auto move to the next closest aggro enemy to fight?
or is it all manual
Manual
If a monster attacks you while you have no target then by default you will auto-target it
With your next attack
But thatโs it
you will auto-soft target on being attacked, which will turn into a hard target as soon as you do any action
guess I got spoiled with leagues auto attack move, but thank you, huge lifesaver
Are you guys sure that The Minstrel's Ballad: Thordan's Reign drops a bird mount? Another 10 more runs today and at least 50 in the lifetime and no bird mount
yes
I got a bird on a clear for Ravana and it took about 10 total for Bismark. Why is Thordan different?
Itโs not.
Thatโs how random chance works
Youโre just getting less lucky this time
As well as the 6 - 7 people who join each time
I know that you cannot change a retainer's gear if they are on a venture, but can you at least view what gear that they have on? I am making a checklist because some still needs upgrading
Yes
hi what is my summoner aoe rotation at 60 i am v confused
@gusty storm Cast dots, cast your aetherflow stacks on cooldown
garuda egi, tri burst
titan is useless
Potd sends it's regards
that's niche content
yikes my rotation is wrong
titan shield is sometimes useful
I can do Aetherochemical Research Facility repeatedly in a row and I will get 150 poetics each time?
yes
Not unsync, if youโre thinking of that
I know gil can sometimes be earned by slaying monsters in dungeons. Is there a good dungeon for gil grind?
Not really
wanderers palace (hard) is the best gil farming dungeon in ARR
I figured that as extremes do not give poetics unsynced
though its worth noting that its still not exactly an optimal gil strategy
What is?
wanders palace hard also gives 100 poetics
Doing dungeons just isnโt an effective way of earning gil
Then what is an effective way other than crafting?
tails maps gathering and uh
crafting but you already ruled that out
but its effectiveness shant be denied

My brother-in-law can obtain maps from Wonderous Tales but I do not have that as an option. Why?
Need to be level 80 for the full rewards
Any MSQ requiremtns for that?
Donโt think so?
hey, does anyone have any experience with Ariyala's FATE tracker?
I'm seeing this but no Levin weather or Ixion fate ๐ญ
I'm guessing it's already kill
just use centurio hunts discord
it lets you augment the levi weapons to be glowy
oic
!iglam tidal wave katana
How do I unlock bozja
it's in the patch notes
if i use "to <t>" on a macro that person will read "to you" in the log chat?
if im targetted to them obviously
no it will use their name
ugh
i.e. /em pokes <t> to you would be
channy pokes you
@chilly birch in Gangos if youโve already done the first part of the resistance weapon quests
any way i can make it read as a normal emote log?
I thought emotes still read as "you" 
Custom ones don't if you use the target like that
i see
/em is the custom emote command it names the target instead
of using 2nd person
so if you want it specifically to say you
you add it into the emote command
oh so like /em pokes you.
yes
literally typing you
mhmm
But it will appear that way in the log to everyone, not just your target.
ya i see thanks
anyone know where I can fidn macros for crafting collectibles ?
you can try the pins in #doh-dol-lounge or check teamcraft for community submitted rotations
and export those
This may sound like a weird question... how do I walk?
Ty
How can I make a piece of armor invisible in glamour?
use emperor's new X
Do you have to wait a couple of seconds after using swiftcast before using resurrection? Sometimes my resurrection macro does not work if I use it instantly after swiftcast
Macros don't always trigger properly because of server lag
because macros do not queue
has nothing to do with lag
server ticks just prevent the macros from executing correctly
what you should do is manually swiftcast
and not have it in the macro
thats objectively bad
While it works if you put a /wait command in between the two, it's better to hit everything manually.
So waiting a couple seconds will make it work properly? Because the difference is like night and day if I wait a couple seconds
weave the swift before you hit reaise
The /wait has to be in full seconds though, and greater than the gcd
If you don't macro them, you don't have to wait
If you do macro them, you need a 3s /wait
do not use the macro you're wasting more time that way
Because gcd is 2.5s
My swiftcast is not in the macro, it is separate
What is the structure of your macro?
macros still do not queue
so you trying to force the raise macro
won't work any better still
Why do macros not queue
ideally you repeat the /ac "raise" <t> on multiple lines to help alleviate that
Thats how they're designed
If you have text macroed to your raise, you'll need to put the text line after the spell line in order to make it function correctly.
because the devs made them that way
but even more ideally manually raise people
Is it intended or bad code
its intended
intended
So people dont bot easily
the devs don't want you to automate the gameplay
It's intended. It's meant to discourage botting
you have to actually play the game
What would, theoretically be the best and cheapest way to get a lot of the augmented neo ish tickets
Channy
barrring that buy the cheapest items repeatedly to trade in
I don't craft
barrring that buy the cheapest items repeatedly to trade in
Is there a consensus on the fastest lvl60 dungeon to run?
Theoretically it's obviously gather mats and craft yourself. Theoretically anyway.
consensus? no, but people have been saying arboretum or antitower a lot
In practice if you don't have DOHL leveled and don't have friends, it's usually just buy the cheapest trade in and trade for Augmented Certs
!faq macrogcd @cedar compass for your further interest in why macros suck
Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.
Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:

hi im currently doing the airship stuff in the fc house and was upgrading the phases on a bronco-type hull. i accidently put a phase 2 in my inventory instead of moving it to phase 3, do i have to start again or is there a way to put the phase 2 bronco-type hull back in? or maybe it completed without needing a phase 3?
On a second thought I have no idea why macros don't queue
I think the developers just never bothered to write code for it
I know that deep down, macros execute one line per frame
no
Wait wut?
because they made them that way
I mean yeah
it's not that they didn't bother
Imagine a XIV where everyone pressed 5 macros
And the rest of the time, they just run around
Yeah, I mean I understand that part. The developers are super afraid of the game turning into a 5 button spam like WoW does.
I just feel that, at least let me sequence one ability or something
Thats a slippery slope
It's hard trying to place a earthly star while juggling cards
Yeah
I see what you mean
I guess people using crafting macros is already somewhat unintended
Also none of the crafter skills are on the gcd
You dont need to abc to finish a craft
Imagine if we had timed crafts
We already had crafting (ultimate)
where do you spend bozjan coins?
nope, the coins you get from lacus lictore
Oh idk
ok let me go check
no that npc is just for clusters
i would assume its the resistance supplier but the thing is we disbanded on the last fight bc we didnt have enough time but i have like 15 coins just sitting in my inventory
i think i need to clear lacus lictore to even access the vendor
Possible
do healing potions become obsolete after a certain point?
Hp pots have their uses in deep dungeon but otherwise not much to have them around
are there any potions I SHOULD try to carry around with me?
I saw strength potions in my class rotation when I was researching but I didn't know if they were still relevant since it was a SB rotation guide
if you're leveling, not really
Even at endgame it's a minmaxing thing
cleanse potions aren't really used anymore outside of niche content as well
you don't really need any potions if you're just leveling
majority of people don't use stat potions in the average raid
alrighty well thats something I wont have to buy then
but I may still buy idk, I kinda wanna minmax when i do endgame content
it's late in this raid tier
I'd wait until 5.4 in December
when new raids are out
eh I have the gill laying around, I may as well stock up a bit
just keep it in my retainer till then
there'll be new potions(?) and food with new tier
nvm
wait it out
stock up on ingredients more like
I would if I had my alchemist leveled, I feel bad bothering people to make things for me
Pay them

I would still feel bad lol, I feel like they have better things to do than help someone who's too lazy to level their alchemist
Nah crafters get bank doing that
