guys, I went to Tataroga but can't find emperor's set, is there a step I need to do to get it? this is all I can see

open coral
#

Doesn't the Emperor's New set have a Gold Saucer requirement?

wintry chasm
#

Nah

brave ravine
#

need DoH lev 15 quest

wintry chasm
#

^ and do the crafting quest that lets you craft prisms

#

"Absolutely Glamourous"

#

It's in Vesper's Bay too

wispy parcel
#

@onyx kiln depends on your rank. You lose more mettle the higher your rank but in contrast you also gain more mettle

#

Lucky you cant really de-rank in bozja

north venture
#

I remember doing this one

#

the Absolutely Glamour , I will check again

wintry chasm
#

You could be looking at the wrong menu then. I think the NPC has multiple menus you can pick from

north venture
#

it's this one and small talk one nothing more

#

ok I don't have the quest

#

I need to get DoH to 15

#

how do I do that though ? xD

strange coral
#

"the quests A Self-improving Man and Submission Impossible from Wiscard must be completed."

drifting burrow
#

how long does it usually take for crops to fully grow? specifically, doman plums and valfruit thinkies

#

real time ^

wintry chasm
#

how do I do that though ? xD
Level up a crafting class

#

I'm not sure what you want me to say

#

"the quests A Self-improving Man and Submission Impossible from Wiscard must be completed."
That's ooooold

strange coral
#

I thought so, but its the only thing I can find about quest requirements for the vendor

#

I know another player had the same issue not long ago, but I don't recall what the solution was

wintry chasm
#

how long does it usually take for crops to fully grow? specifically, doman plums and valfruit :thinkies:
48 hours according to a quick google search

#

I know another player had the same issue not long ago, but I don't recall what the solution was
Well for this case it's simple

#

do the quest

manic schooner
#

hey guys, anyone here using ACT ember overlay?

#

i cant seem to scroll down the overlay while the game is on. wudve liked to see additional details below

north venture
#

does gathering count as DoH ?

strange coral
#

No, gatherers are DoL

drifting burrow
#

no, that's under the category of DoL

north venture
#

oh I see, thank you

young fjord
#

I did Bozjan front castrum today
On last boss we had a "Alpha team"
What was that?

lucid grove
#

fastest lv60 dung?

open coral
#

For what purpose?

lucid grove
#

bitter memories

open coral
#

Hmm. I think I heard Gubal was the go-to for those? Not sure though.

lucid grove
#

i heard antitower but wasnt sure

strange coral
#

I've been hearing Antitower and Arboretum

open coral
#

Oh, might be Antitower

#

Something spooky, ancient, and abandoned.

lucid grove
#

antitower it is then

open coral
#

I can't see Arboretum being fast... although if unsync is an option then maybe.

lucid grove
#

nah has to be synced

open coral
#

Yeah, then I think Antitower would be faster.

#

Arboretum's got those stupid bees.

manic schooner
#

Hey guys, Just a quick question on anyone using ACT -- i really dont care about the log files. Is there a way to turn off logging every move i make so i can at least save some disk space? I only really need the DPS meter.

little swift
#

Nah the log is how it reads the dps meter to you

#

Just delete logs every once in a while

manic schooner
#

I see.. i tried unchecking this but it doesnt do anything. It still records every move in the log file lol. do you know what this does?

little swift
#

No idea

manic schooner
#

alright thanks

upper lake
#

hey, so I'm quite new to the game, only reached heavensward a few days ago

#

but I'm really curious as to what this new bozjan thing is

#

is it too far from where I am in the game's progress rn?

strange coral
#

It's level 80 endgame stuff

upper lake
#

understandable

strange coral
#

Or rather, unlocked by your first level 80 I think, but then after that you can participate with level 71+

glossy flare
#

Yup

open coral
#

Specifically, it's content related to the level 80 relic weapons which can also be used as an alternative leveling path for characters at level 71+

glossy flare
#

Specifically it requires 5.2 story completion to unlock

upper lake
#

welp, I should probably just ignore it for now then lmao

#

on another note, there was another thing I wanted to ask

#

what are the rewards for stuff like pvp and carteneau stuff?

#

I unlocked them back in ARR but I never actually tried them, so I don't know what's the benefit in doing it

glossy flare
#

pvp rewards wolf marks which can be spend on armour sets

#

Which are just for glam though

upper lake
#

by "pvp" you're including carteneau as well right?

#

I actually forgot the name of that gamemode

manic schooner
#

first time using ACT and im extremely surprised our tank is usually the top DPSer lol... is thisnormal?

open coral
#

You can get some good xp for doing Frontline roulettes, but PvP isn't otherwise particularly good for anything.

#

That is... not normal @manic schooner Liberti

upper lake
#

frontlines! that's it

glossy flare
#

Yeah, Carteneau is just a map for that

#

Also yeah, tank should not be top dps

manic schooner
#

That is... not normal @manic schooner Liberti
@open coral really? damn.. perhaps our tank is overgeared

glossy flare
#

Tank should be between healers and dps

upper lake
#

thanks for the help lads, I'll try the pvp later

open coral
#

In most cases it will have nothing to do with gear, and everything to do with people just being bad.

#

If you're dps and being out-dpsed by the tank, you should review your rotation because you're probably doing something wrong.

#

If you're the healer and being out-dpsed by the tank... that's not a big deal.

glossy flare
#

As long as your healer dps is not 0, yeah

manic schooner
#

i see, alright thnkas

open coral
#

You can feed your logs into... what's the analysis site Cypher? I can't remember it right now.

glossy flare
open coral
#

That's the one

glossy flare
#

it will tell you things you can improve upon

open coral
#

If you feed your logs into that, you can get a breakdown of what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong, and the places to start looking for improvement.

little swift
#

After a certain point to improve analysis won't help you anymore

#

But its a wonderful place to start

open coral
#

I mean, once you get to that point where it won't help anymore, you're probably already well ahead of the curve anyways.

#

Maybe not 99 parsing, but purple for sure.

manic schooner
#

really? wow im impressed how much ffxiv enthusiasts have put efforts into making helpful plugins

open coral
#

It's a gaming thing. Particularly for MMOs. People always want to improve in order to challenge harder content more effectively (or just to flex).

#

I think both tools were actually created for WoW, originally and were simply repurposed for XIV.

glossy flare
#

Let's be honest, when it comes to the parsing percentile... mostly to flex

open coral
#

Well, not ACT specifically, but the idea of having an external program to read logs, parse the data, and lay it out.

little swift
#

Its mostly in comparison to others who also play that job/role AND have uploaded

open rivet
#

Does FFLogs even support uploading non-endgame stuff?

open coral
#

I don't think so.

open rivet
#

๐Ÿ‘Œ so it's worthless to me, ty

glossy flare
#

It does

normal breach
#

Was there any new main story quests in patch 5.35

glossy flare
#

Of course your mileage may vary because there is less material to compare yourself against

young yarrow
#

Current dungeons, alliance raids, and extremes

little swift
#

You can upload but it considers the data as trash fights

north venture
#

how to keep crafting something as long as the resources are available ?

open coral
#

Was there any new main story quests in patch 5.35
@normal breach No

#

MSQ is major patches only.

manic schooner
#

guys curious does limit break count to the DPS of whoever cast it? sounds a bit unfair since its a collective effort to fill it up

open coral
#

I think it counts as its own thing.

glossy flare
#

It is its own thing

little swift
#

Lb is its own thing

glossy flare
#

Doesn't count towards anyone

manic schooner
#

ohh oay coool

little swift
#

So being outdpsed by lb3 means you suck really bad

open coral
#

^

#

Unless you're a healer.

little swift
#

Even if you're a healer

#

It shouldnt do more than you

open coral
#

That... sounds like a challenge ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

little swift
#

Since its 1 instance of damage

open coral
#

I mean, yeah, that makes sense.

little swift
#

You probably shouldnt use act in frontlines anyways not like it has any value in that content

#

And potency info is different in pvp

gusty pasture
#

for bitter memory do is it only once a day?

glossy flare
#

no

gusty pasture
#

or can I grind out all 6 in one day

#

with level 60 dgs?

glossy flare
#

you can farm all the lvl 60 dungeons

#

only leveling roulette is once per day

royal lichen
#

I can't get into Bojzan, how do I start my Shadowbringer relic?

north venture
#

what's wrong with this macro ? it keeps repeating "Basic Touch" and doesn't do other things

open ember
#

Did you do the Ivalice raids @royal lichen

#

You cannot even access gangos without finishing those

#

If you did do them and already have a relic, then you need to go to Gangos and there's a blue quest there

strange coral
#

@north venture You do have Basic Touch in there 4 times. Is it not doing Master's Mend after the 4th Basic Touch?

north venture
#

no, it keeps doing Basic Touch and durability reachs 0

royal lichen
#

@open ember dumb question: Where do I start my ivalice raids?

open ember
#

Talk to Keiten

#

In Kugane

north venture
#

oh it's Mend not Mind shit

open ember
#

In the Kugane Dori Markets

#

There's a quest named "Dramatis Personae"

#

They are lv70 stormblood raids

north venture
#

my bad, thanks Lamia

open ember
#

Once you complete Orbonne Monastery and turn in its quest, you talk to Keiten again

royal lichen
#

You mean the raids with that kid who looks a lot like that ff tactis character?

open ember
#

Yes

#

Inspired by ffta and ff12

royal lichen
#

yeah, i'm in the middle of that raid quest

open ember
#

Yeah finish it

#

And then you can access gangos

lean yarrow
#

How do I get to the lower part of Mourn, behind Anyx Trine in the dravanian forelands? I'm trying to get the aether current but I've ran through the cave, up to the top of the mountain...can't seem to get into the area directly behind the tower. which way do I go?

royal lichen
#

I do msq a lil' bit, then I do side quests a lil' bit

open ember
#

Arighty~

ionic hazel
#

what was the Emergency maint. last night for?

#

anyone know?

gusty pasture
#

what level 60 dungeon is the fastest to run for bitter memos?

pine phoenix
#

does the current bozja story questline end after castrum?

ionic hazel
#

anti tower @gusty pasture

open ember
#

what was the Emergency maint. last night for?
@ionic hazel
Hotfixes

#

It said it on the lodestone

glossy flare
#

They messed up some Bozja gear I think

gusty pasture
#

alright thanks

glossy flare
#

So they had to fix it fast

leaden ginkgo
#

Soo i never quite figured, if i am ready to increase my reputation on Beast Tribe .. from rank to another as the reputation points are full

#

and i have quests beforehand

#

IF

#

i complete the quests beforehand, and then do the rank up quest

#

will i have new quests afterwards?

#

As in

wintry chasm
#

You can do the rank up quest, then hand in the quests you already have and then pick up new ones

strange coral
#

Do the rank quest first. You will still be able to turn in the ones you have and get the new 3

leaden ginkgo
#

oh q.q

strange coral
#

Turning them in before ranking up will waste the reputation

wintry chasm
#

^

#

Rank up first

leaden ginkgo
#

soo i get 6 quests in total to increase the reputation ?

#

after rank up

open ember
#

It'll warn you when youre at full reputation

lean yarrow
leaden ginkgo
#

My point is not that though

#

I am just trying to be efficient

#

regarding XP

#

to only class i did not bother to level before

lean yarrow
#

when you rank up, the 3 new quests become available, limited only by your daily quests remaining

wintry chasm
#

how do I get here?
Go back to Anyx Trine and there should be a middle level with a bridge going into cave. Don't go all the way to the top of the tower

leaden ginkgo
#

Fair enough ^^

lean yarrow
#

Thank you Calisaie! I'm losing my mind locked to the ground

dawn cradle
#

What are some of the best methods to get gil?

agile laurel
#

crafting

#

maps

wispy parcel
#

Treasure Map's

agile laurel
#

diadem, if it's a good time for it

#

generally the answer is 'x, when it's a good time for it'

#

if there was one surefire great way to get gil, everyone would do it and it wouldn't be great

wispy parcel
#

Theres no real quick way to get a lot of gil very quickly. Leveling Crafters takes a bit of investment, and Maps are heavily based on RNG

silk summit
#

Just unlocked holy spirit on PLD. Do I use it until my mp runs dry or is it just a ranged option?

dawn cradle
#

I guess I can invest in leveling up all my crafting classes

agile laurel
#

Holy spirit is awkward. It's not big good until

#

!action requiescat

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Requiescat** : lvl 68 PLD (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 150. Potency increases up to 550 as MP nears maximum.
Additional Effect: Increases attack magic and healing magic potency by 50% if current MP is at 80% or higher , and allows spells to be cast immediately Duration: 12s

agile laurel
#

But yes, as a rule, get your MP to full and spam HS

#

When you have Requiescat, use Req first

dawn cradle
#

I was wondering as I didn't know if it was a waste; let's say me investing a lot of time in crafting when it is easier to just get gold by running rouelettes or something

agile laurel
#

to switch into magic damage+

wispy parcel
#

Its meant to be PLD's big damage rotation but yea you dont use it till you get Requiescat

silk summit
#

So until 68 only use it if I can't get close to the boss for some reason

agile laurel
#

basically

#

holy spirit is about the point where pressing clemency becomes a sin to your dps

silk summit
#

I mean I wasn't using it anyway, heh

teal tiger
#

hey there! do I need to do all three chocobo quests from each faction to get the faction-chocobo?

agile laurel
#

By 80, you'll get full MP, requiescat, Holy Spirit, and end with

#

!action confiteor

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Confiteor** : lvl 80 PLD (4000 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 800 to target and all enemies nearby it.
Can only be executed while under the effect of Requiescat. Effect fades upon execution.

gloomy mortar
#

Roulettes will get you about 10k Gil. Or, you could sell one Toadskin ring for 10k, spending about 500 in mats

little swift
#

The chocobo doesn't change

agile laurel
#

@teal tiger once you've joined a grand company, do the next MSQ to get your chocobo

little swift
#

Its just the barding

wispy parcel
#

Doing all roulettes daily by level 80 nets you about 150K gil a day

little swift
#

Its based on which gc you are in in a given time

teal tiger
#

thanks a lot! :3 @agile laurel

gloomy mortar
#

Each roulette takes about 40 mins

errant ginkgo
#

hi are the new skysung tools (crafting) better than pentameld aesthete?

little swift
#

No they aren't @errant ginkgo

#

At best better than budget meld

errant ginkgo
#

Thank you!

little swift
#

Roulettes do not take 40 minutes

#

Msq is the only one that would

#

Given normal circumstances

wispy parcel
#

Most can be done in like 15 minutes with a decent group

gloomy mortar
#

And leveling, and 50/60/70

#

Raids

wispy parcel
#

Nah

little swift
#

Shorter for things like trials/normal raiss

gloomy mortar
#

And the waiting

wispy parcel
#

Leveling and 50/60/70 only take that long if your tank is single pulling, which they shouldnt be doing or their a bad tank

little swift
#

Queue time is like 10min and dungeon at 15 means it's only 25 minutes total

gloomy mortar
#

Dungeons do not only take 15mins

little swift
#

They shouldn't take much more than that on average

#

Some dungeons can be completed even faster

gloomy mortar
#

35-40 mins

little swift
#

Tamtara nm for instance can be done in 7 minutes

wispy parcel
#

I've never had a dungeon go on that long mate

#

most take at max 25 minutes with a bad group

gloomy mortar
#

Min 25 mins

static yacht
#

????

open ember
#

Depends on the dungeon and how crap your dps is

static yacht
#

Dungeons only take 25 minutes

gloomy mortar
#

Most players are not good

static yacht
#

If the tank is single pulling and healer doesnt dps

open ember
#

At most dungeons take about 15-25 min

#

Also yes the tank doing big pulls or not matters

gloomy mortar
#

Yes

open ember
#

I had a mt gulg take 20 min

#

Because our dps was that good

#

But it never took 45 min

static yacht
#

I've average around 15 for expert roulette

open ember
#

There's not a single dungeon that takes 45 min

little swift
#

Can it? Ofc it can

gloomy mortar
#

Praetorium

#

Castrum

little swift
#

But on average it doesnt

static yacht
#

The longest dungeon you'll have is from trusts.

little swift
#

Prae and castrum arent regular dungeons

static yacht
#

Which average around 30 minutes

wispy parcel
#

those 2 arent normal dungeons

static yacht
#

Cause they nerf the DPS of trusts to always finish in 30

wispy parcel
#

they have their own roulette for a reason

static yacht
#

If you DPS too high

little swift
#

Gameplaywise you're actually only playing like 15 minutes tops

gloomy mortar
#

Praetorium is 5 mins of gameplay and 45 mins of cutscenes

little swift
#

Its not even 45 minutes of cutscenes

open ember
#

If you're taking more than 25 min in a dunegon then it is either:

  • small pulls from tank
  • shit dps
  • constant wipes
little swift
#

We're done here conversation isn't even relevant anymore

#

Nor is it even helpful/correct info

open ember
#

Well its in the questions channel

#

So shrug

gloomy mortar
#

Yes, I have the correct info

manic schooner
#

guys how to unlock hunting log for samurai? theres seems to be no samurai icon in the list

gloomy mortar
#

Crafting is better than roulettes for money

teal sleet
#

Hello everyone, long time WoW tank here, started playing FFXIV for 2 months bow and i LOVE it!
My question is, is it wise to start tanking right away as i still level and don't know content, or should i play dps untill i learn content? In WoW i was tanking right away idk if that's a thing here. Thank you in advance ๐Ÿ™‚

gloomy mortar
#

DPS

little swift
#

Play whatever interests you

gloomy mortar
#

People get mad if you donโ€™t tank well

little swift
#

Check the pinned video for an overview

glossy flare
#

Tanks are fun to play as your first class

static yacht
#

@manic schooner sam has no hunting log

little swift
#

People absolutely shouldn't get mad at you if you listen to advice and communicate

glossy flare
#

Rotations are generally a bit simpler to get into and the queue times are better

static yacht
#

Hunting logs are for classes only

gloomy mortar
#

Shouldnโ€™t, but do

manic schooner
#

@manic schooner sam has no hunting log
@static yacht ohh shoot. thought had to unlock it or sumthin.. thanks

static yacht
#

And because sam is a job not a class there is no log

manic schooner
#

ohh theres a disctinction between job vs. class here?

static yacht
#

Same applies to mch,ast, drk etc.

#

In 95% of situations no

open ember
#

Hunting logs are only available for ARR classes that have yet to obtain jobstones @manic schooner

static yacht
#

This is the 5% that it actually matters cause its sub 30 content

glossy flare
#

Classes are the base versions of jobs that start at lvl 1

#

Like Archer who then turns into Bard

little swift
#

Classes pertain to the playable classes from the start

glossy flare
#

Which is a job

little swift
#

Think of jobs as upgrades

#

That you unlock later

manic schooner
#

Ohh i see.. much clearer now.. thanks guys

open ember
#

Jobs -> classes

glossy flare
#

Used to be that you had to combine two classes to unlock a job

gloomy mortar
#

Scroll up and youโ€™ll see people talking about dungeons taking too long because of small pulls @teal sleet

glossy flare
#

But that is thankfully no longer the case

little swift
#

Buddy stop trying to push that conversation and narrative

teal sleet
#

@gloomy mortar Thank you, will do

glossy flare
#

I mean... small pulls are an understandable newbie way of doing things.

#

It's not bad unless you decide to ignore advice to improve

young yarrow
#

Hey sorry to break it but maybe its best to talk about something else other than a dungeon taking a bit

little swift
#

Even with small pull the dungeons don't take that long

#

Objectively

gloomy mortar
#

No problem! @teal sleet Ask me anything. I have all the information

glossy flare

@gloomy mortar
Not you

gloomy mortar
#

Of course me

open ember
#

Stop spreading misinformation

gloomy mortar
#

Stop pushing that narrative

open ember
#

I'm gonna stop arguing with you because I'm talking to a wall at this point

fresh lodge
#

Enough

sand grove
#

@teal sleet tanking was my secondary choice due to getting tired of long queue times, it quickly became my favorite. If you're worried about not knowing content you can just be honest with your team about it. I often will let them know if I'm new to a run or don't remember it and have yet to encounter anyone rude about it.

fresh lodge
#

Drop this now

gloomy mortar
#

Yes pleas drop it

fresh lodge
#

I will not hesitate to remove you from this channel also should you continue to push your opinion and narrative onto new players as fact

gloomy mortar
#

Youโ€™re just insulting now

sand grove
#

Anyone have recommendations for leveling BLU? LULW

atomic yarrow
#

I just came back to this game yesterday and i was wandering how come i can't see the chain quests in the firmament ?

little swift
#

@sand grove get a friend out of your party to blow up the mobs you tag in azys lla

#

Learn flying sardine and do that

#

Its an instant cast ranged skill

#

Learned from apkallus in eastern la noscea

sand grove
#

What's the level requirement for it?

little swift
#

To learn a spell?

#

Theres no level requirement

#

You just need to see it cast

#

And then its rng for overworld mobs and unsyncrd content

atomic yarrow
#

Btw, where're all teh chain quest in the firmament? I've talk to augebert already and i can't seem to find the next npc

sand grove
#

Oh that's weird. I tried learning 1000 needles at level 18 but couldn't after trying on like 3 cactaurs. Thought there might be level

little swift
#

Its just bad rng

sand grove
#

Ty I'll go do that then.

#

I misunderstood the way it worked lol. Appreciate the help

little swift
#

Chain quests?

is there a way to set your default face to a different facial expression Confused_Dog

@little swift The Making of a Market

No, only temporarily

Also I gotta get me that dog emoji

But that's neither here nor there

What's the difference between Mender Permit and Mender PErmit A-2?

raven sage

The appearance of the npc

glossy flare

the outfit of the NPC I think

little swift
#

@cedar compass have you completed the bluequest absolutely glamorous

#

Making of a market starts at francel

#

From what I can see

#

You needed to have finished "to thaw a frozen heart" to see the quest

@cedar compass have you completed the bluequest absolutely glamorous
@little swift i hadnt, thanks

manic schooner
#

hey guys just managed to kill this rare spawn, Vuokho. After killing it, i ddnt seem to get any rare loot. just exp. how come?

elfin kelp
#

What's a good way to get a Peity III materia without buying it? (I'm on the trial)

raven sage
#

Vuokho is a b rank hunt mark so you need the hunt bill for it to give you anything

manic schooner
#

oh there are bills in this game just like FFXII? cool.. where do i find those bounty bills?

remote lintel
#

do the hunt quest at your gc hq

manic schooner
#

ohh that board on the side...

remote lintel
#

no

#

it starts at an npc

#

you need to unlock hunts

open ember
#

After you unlock it at the GC board

#

Then go to Ishgard

manic schooner
#

ohhh i see, looks likeits a long process.. havent unlocked ishgard yet

#

thats stormblood content right?

little swift
#

You need 2nd lieutenant for the lv50 hunt quest to be availabke

open ember
#

No Ishgard is HW

remote lintel
#

no

little swift
#

Ishgard is heavensward

glossy flare
#

You need to be second lieutenant or higher in your GC for the ARR hunts

remote lintel
#

each expac has its own hunts

#

you need to unlock ARR hunts to unlock other expac hunts

open ember
#

Also SHB doesn't use Centurio seals. It uses nuts

glossy flare
#

Yeah, first step would be to rank up in your GC

manic schooner
#

ok. but the way i get to start this chain quest to unlock hunting marks -- they all happen in GC HQ right?

remote lintel
#

ARR doesn't use centurio seals

open ember
#

Yes Liberi

glossy flare
#

Well the hunts all have a quest in the expansion hub area, but yes the first one starts in your GC hq

manic schooner
#

ok thanks ill get to lieutenant first

strange coral
#

@elfin kelp Extract from gear. Transmute other grade III materia. Or buy with brass sky pirate spoil, which you can buy with Ishgard Restoration scrip.

calm phoenix
#

If Arcanist is a DPS and therefore has low healing magic potency, where do they get the extra healing magic potency if one decides to go the scholar route that summoner does not get? Do the soul stones adjust stats or something?

glossy flare
#

Scholar loses almost all the Arcanist skills

remote lintel
#

you'll have different skills as scholar

#

and diff gear

#

which gives mind

glossy flare
#

It's basically its own thing, even if the base class is Arcanist

#

Summoner on the other hand takes away a lot from the Arcanist

calm phoenix
#

Is that the only job that starts off as a different role?

remote lintel
#

it's the only job that splits in 2

glossy flare
#

Also for the record, it's not really decision of a route to take

#

Leveling one also levels the other

calm phoenix
#

It is a route because one can choose which they main

glossy flare
#

In that sense, sure

remote lintel
#

sure you can choose to never unlock the other class

glossy flare
#

Just wanted to mention the xp thing in case that wasn't clear

robust crow
#

it comes bundled together

#

you get scholar whether you want to or not

#

even if you don't unlock the class

#

you're still getting xp for both

glossy flare
#

I mean technically you can decide to not unlock the job, as in you never get the soulstone

#

But yes, if you eventually do unlock it you'd start at whatever level your summoner is at that point

robust crow
#

arcanist healing is also pretty decent under level 30

#

even if it's not a main class healer

calm phoenix
#

Why did they decide to go that route? I mean they did not do that with any other job

remote lintel
#

I have no idea

#

they felt like it

glossy flare
#

Only the devs can answer that ๐Ÿคท

faint meadow
#

All we really know is that in hindsight, they regret it but

#

My guess is simply because they use the same book style weapon

glossy flare
#

Which have to be different for stat reasons

strange coral
#

Left over 1.0 stuff of cross-class mixing I believe. Stuff that they eventually changed their minds about, like the old cross-class skill system, and requiring leveling other classes to upgrade one to a job.

glossy flare
#

So yeah... weird

atomic yarrow
#

You needed to have finished "to thaw a frozen heart" to see the quest
@little swift Yeah, i've done that quest in previous patch

faint meadow
#

Yea a lot of it is in the same place as old league stuff was

#

Just kinda remnants from when they thought stuff was okay design at least

atomic yarrow
#

@little swift Yeah, i've done that quest in previous patch
@atomic yarrow But, i can't see that quest when i go to the place so idk.

#

Maybe the phase is all completed?

little swift
#

The quest should be available

calm phoenix
#

Why is it when you log out (not exit), it takes you back to the title screen instead of the character select screen?

little swift
#

Especially if your restoration phase is completely completed

glossy flare
#

Why is it when you log out (not exit), it takes you back to the title screen instead of the character select screen?
@calm phoenix I mean... because it does? How is anyone besides the devs supposed to answer that?

fresh lodge
#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

#

Thats just how its designed

glossy flare
#

Some things are the way they are because they made them that way

little swift
#

Makes for easier cross datacenter character swapping

calm phoenix
#

Is there a way to buy "snow white dye" other than on the market board?

little swift
#

Not everyone has characters all on the same data center

#

Real money

#

On mogstation

fresh lodge
#

You can buy it off the mogstation or use gold feathers

robust crow
#

ixali beast tribes sells snow white dye

#

y'all are thinking pure white dye

fresh lodge
#

Oh snow white

atomic yarrow
#

Especially if your restoration phase is completely completed
@little swift Yeah, my server restoration phase is completely completed

wintry chasm
#

smh Meara

fresh lodge
#

Yeah Ixali sells them

glossy flare
#

Yeah I was about to say, snow white is not the expensive white

fresh lodge
#

You can also craft them

glossy flare
#

^

calm phoenix
#

I did not think mog station was accurate because it is tradeable and sellable on the market board

little swift
#

Hmmm I'm sorry I don't have much more information beyond that grae, my server isn't quite as caught up

wintry chasm
#

Yes we established Meara was wrong Moltres

fresh lodge
#

Oi

glossy flare
#

mogstation has pure white

fresh lodge
#

Channy was also wrong

glossy flare
#

Which is different

robust crow
#

if you are on aether, I can buy you the snow white

remote lintel
#

our mentors are confused

calm phoenix
#

Is there exclusive dyes on the mog station, then?

remote lintel
#

not exclusive

robust crow
#

I have the ixali tribe high enough for snow white and soot black

remote lintel
#

just expensive

little swift
#

There are the general purpose versions

glossy flare
#

Not exactly exclusive, but the ones you can buy there are the rare ones

little swift
#

Of the green rarity dyes

glossy flare
#

There are also tradable versions which go for a lot of gil on the market board

calm phoenix
#

What I meant by exclusive was only purchaseable on the mog staion

glossy flare
#

Those versions, yes

remote lintel
#

you can get them in game

glossy flare
#

But there are other tradable versions that look the same

remote lintel
#

they're just rare

little swift
#

No you cannot buy them with real money and sell them on market board before you ask that

glossy flare
#

^

robust crow
#

everything except pure white and pure black is relatively cheap though

#

usually under 20-30k

#

pure white and black cost 200-300k

glossy flare
#

Be nice to your retainers and sometimes they will bring you back some fancy black dye uwucarby

Is Dragoon/Lancer the meme class of the game? Iโ€™m boutta start maining it tbh

glossy flare
#

There is this very old meme of them being floor tanks, yeah

little swift
#

Dead meme

glossy flare
#

But all the jobs have some memes attached to them

dusty jungle
#

The meme is from its older gameplay style which resulted in a lot of deaths. It's not relevant after many QoL changes.

calm phoenix
#

I know that 1.0 was in 2010, but when did ARR first get released?

little swift
#

7 almost 8 years ago moltres

#

Meme also was justified because of dragoons weird stat spread that gave them like 0 magic defense

calm phoenix
#

2012 or 2013?

little swift
#

So they died

#

2013

leaden ginkgo
#

Are they viable now?

#

Cuz I like the jump

We just had our 7th? Rising event

#
How FFXIV's Meta Works

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

little swift
#

Objectively you not sucking at the job matters more overall

glossy flare
#

Every job is viable, just play what suits you

little swift
#

You can play everything on one character so you can switch if you don't like it

wintry chasm
#

Meme also was justified because of dragoons weird stat spread that gave them like 0 magic defense
Yeah also because of the jump animation locks were worse and you could get stuck in an aoe. Not really a relevant anymore. The joke sticks because it's funny as shit

When did 1.0 go offline? Curious to know how long the rework did

2 years

old solstice
#

my game keeps on not responding on launch and I even restarted my computer do you guys have any other idea for that? it was working fine yesterday dedj

glossy flare
#

There's a great documentary about the launch and transition to ARR from noclip

#

If you like something like that

#

It's on youtube

strange coral
#

Nov 2012 was the shutdown, but development on ARR started before that iirc

glossy flare
#

Development on ARR basically started immediately after 1.0 launch... or really close after launch

little swift
#

@old solstice any specific error codes you're getting?

old solstice
#

black screen on launch and it goes to this I can only close the game

little swift

Hmm corrupted files after hotfix?

@tender estuary

#

There is an interesting video my brother-in-law showed me. It was the last 10 minutes before they turned off the servers for 1.0. The calamity was happening

remote lintel
#

yeah they played a cutscene in game

to show the meteor falling

calm phoenix
#

People were standing there before the cutscene seeing the meteor in the sky

calm phoenix
#

Apparently if you level sync for a fate, non-fate enemies will aggro you that would not if you were not synced

remote lintel
#

yes

glossy flare
#

Because at a certain level difference above mobs they will ignore you

#

But the sync puts you down again, so they will not

calm phoenix
#

So it is not based on original level?

faint flare
#

No

remote lintel
#

your level changed when you synced

faint flare
#

Its current level

calm phoenix
#

Are there ever any instances where you are actually synced up from your level for anything at all?

remote lintel
#

no

glossy flare
#

Yes, deep dungeons

remote lintel
#

actually

#

bozja

faint flare
#

Deep dungeons and bojza

remote lintel
#

but that's lvl 80

calm phoenix
#

I was told deep dungeon starts you at level 1

glossy flare
#

Yes but they have their own progression

faint flare
#

Potd/hoh have seperate levels inside of them so you can be higher level depending on floor

remote lintel
#

yes but you can surpass your original level

glossy flare
#

Which is faster than leveling outside

faint flare
#

Potd floor 51 starts you at 60

glossy flare
#

So you can be lvl 60 in potd while being around lvl 30 outside of it

faint flare
#

HoH floor 21 starts you at 70

#

Bojza hard sets you to 80

Are they trying to be a traditional RPG with deep dungeon? I have seen the classic sprites for saved games and with its own progression and being its own dungeon crawler

tender estuary
#

See if anything relates to why itโ€™s crashing to desktop right away

remote lintel
#

it's based off older ff games I think

#

I haven't played other ff games

old solstice
#

problem is that it's not crashing right away I need to close it

#

it just stays there

#

so there's nothing :')

tender estuary
#

alright what I want you to do is to do something called a limited boot

#

where you basically disable everything from startup

faint flare
#

Deep dungeons are basically Roguelikes

tender estuary
#

restart your PC

#

and then try to launch the game again

wispy parcel
#

Deep Dungeon isnt trying to be a traditional RPG no. Its basically one long dungeon where if you die you start over from the last checkpoint

#

Every checkpoint being every 10 floors

#

and is completely randomized

tender estuary
remote lintel
#

yes

calm phoenix
#

Why isn't there hardly any Final Fantasy IV material in this game? I see references to other final fantasys and the game is loaded with Final Fantasy VII references. We have outfits for other Final Fantasy characters but none for FFIV. Not even Rydia which is basically the female mascot of the game. The only things FFIV related is the opening airship music and antitower final boss

wispy parcel
#

There is some FFIV stuff later on but its basically on the whim of YoshiP of what gets in

slate arrow
#

It's called limited development time and they can only stuff so many references into this game

wispy parcel
#

And the man LOVES FFIII more than anything else

glossy flare
#

for good reason

calm phoenix
#

FFIV is my favorite Final Fantasy which not a great deal of people can say

crimson wind
#

exactly

#

there's not much demand for an FF4 reference

remote lintel
#

the entire 8 man raids of stormblood are basically one big ff6 reference

wispy parcel
#

And FF5

calm phoenix
#

But it houses one of the most attractive girls in it, adult Rydia

ionic hazel
#

no

wispy parcel
#

Waifu wars banned

crimson wind
#

guys we're delving kinda off topic

remote lintel
#

well you don't see tifa in game

ionic hazel
#

the most attractive girl is obviously Emet Selch

#

FIGHT ME

calm phoenix
#

I do not find Tifa all that attractive. In fact, Aerith beats her

remote lintel
#

it's a joke

wintry chasm
#

We have outfits for other Final Fantasy characters but none for FFIV
Monk HW gear is kinda like Yang's stuff, all of the DRK shit is based off of Cecil, IVth legion has some story parallels to FFIV, you also have ||some potential moon plot with a being sealed on the moon|| and that is just to name a few

remote lintel
#

cause tifa has so many fans

#

yet she's not in game

wintry chasm
#

also tbh this sounds more of a rant than an actual legitimate question

wispy parcel
#

But yea the majority of references in this game are from FF3, 5 and 6

wintry chasm
#

But yea the majority of references in this game are from FF3, 5 and 6
3 and 6 yeah but ehhhh

#

Maybe it is my taste in women. I prefer Minfilia over Y'shtola and my brother-in-law does not like Minfilia that much

Kain's armor is also in the game I believe

remote lintel

there's a kain minion

sour ruin
#

It pairs well with the box set you get at 60 imo

crimson wind
#

Kain armor is DRG AF1

calm phoenix
#

There needs to be a Rydia minion. Rydia got absolutely no love in FFXIV

remote lintel
#

it depends what yoshi p wants to add

sour ruin
#

I mean it is kinda a popularity contest for what gets in

#

You want things to sell well so they'll only put things in that a lot of people will consider buying

glossy flare

Just for the record, as much as Yoshi-P is the face of this game and is, at the end of the day, the guy who makes the decisions... not only his ideas make it into the game

I needed to destroy one more infernal beacon for Amalj'aa quest and some level 80 jerk destroyed it before I could get to it! Now I cannot complete the quest!! What do I do??

remote lintel
#

wait for it to respawn?

wispy parcel

give it about a minute

calm phoenix

WIll it being a quest monster?

remote lintel

yes

move far away and wait a minute and come back

Also there are more than one beacon on the map

Are they always there even when nobody is doing Amalj'aa quests?

remote lintel

yes

It just came back. Thanks

Does the "11 levels above" rule for aggroing also work for A ranks? Like Cornu? I am 19 up

A and S ranks don't aggro if youre way overlevel

where can you buy a Small Shirogane Castle Walls

Market board

Otherwise craft them with free company workshop

AH thanks

What is the logic behind enemies not aggroing you if you are too high level? Like are they afraid of you or something?

wintry chasm
#

Does that matter?

sullen pulsar
#

but how do you get the recipe? or does it comes with workshop?

remote lintel

How were people able to ride the cavalry drake into Zahar'ak with aggroing enemies back when it was current? I cannot imagine how that was like. You cannot dismount the drake otherwise you have to start over and the area is full of monsters that will aggro a max level player at that time. You would be defenseless. How did people ever manage? And the drake does not even fly

fresh lodge
#

They just ignored them

remote lintel
#

being sneaky or running real fast i assume

wintry chasm
#

Yeah also just run behind them

#

They aggro by sight

fresh lodge
#

You can outrun every add in the game

wintry chasm
#

You can outrun every add in the game
unless you got heavy

But that isn't a thing anymore admittedly

It would seem hard to avoid them in the tight squeeze of those areas

remote lintel

just run right through

wintry chasm

It would seem hard to avoid them in the tight squeeze of those areas
Really it's not as bad as you think. You could be 1cm away from a mob but so long as you're behind them they won't aggro

Is there anything important in Patch MSQs (post ARR) - I been skippin a buncha dialog cause I figured if it was important it'd be in an expansion and not a patch

wintry chasm
#

The patch stuff sets up literally every single expansion

glossy flare
#

Yes, patch MSQs always tie up some loose ends and set up the next expansion

wintry chasm
#

It's the most important plot in the game pretty much

sly rampart
#

you won't know WHY you are going to the next expansion. You are skipping context.

glossy flare
#

I will admit though, that the post ARR MSQs start off a bit slow

#

But the end is really good

wintry chasm
#

@oblique trellis I should mention that patch MSQ is STILL expansion MSQ

oblique trellis
#

I still have 48 quests to go until HW

calm phoenix
#

That fate happened to have been there right where a different Amalj'aa quest target was. I had to rush defeat it because it had just under three minutes on it. Spamming Fester and pet attacks

wintry chasm
#

It's just not the base story

wispy parcel
#

@oblique trellis the way it works is the x.1-x.3 patches finish the main story line of the xpac while x.4 and x.5 set up the next xpac

They are very important

wintry chasm
#

especially the post ARR ones

Literally, and I can't stress this enough, set up the next THREE expansions

Ok what about Blue quests? Can I skip dialog for those?

wintry chasm
#

I wouldn't for the raids

oblique trellis
#

or is that important too somehow

wintry chasm

If it's an optional dungeon I guess but come ooon

glossy flare

There are some great stories in there, others not so much

well, I mean like Hildibrand's quest... been skippin a buncha that

glossy flare
#

Like... do not skip Hildibrand quests

#

Oh boy

#

Hildebrand is a comedy series

sly rampart
#

why do you play this story-based game?

oblique trellis
#

Yeah I've noticed ๐Ÿ˜„

wintry chasm
#

Skipping Hildibrand goes against the point of doing Hildibrand

glossy flare
#

Yeah, there is no great reward at the end of it

oblique trellis
#

I just did it cause it's blue, not cause of what it is ๐Ÿ˜„

glossy flare
#

Doing them is the fun part

wintry chasm

Well that isn't quite true

It does unlock some trials

I mean technically you do unlock some trials, yeah

wintry chasm
#

Not important trials

oblique trellis
#

I got the Phoenix Down, I was good, then it kept going

wispy parcel
#

But basically raid and alliance raid quests directly are important to the plot

sly rampart

raids are canon and affect the story

oblique trellis
#

Can't I just go back and see the story in that book inside the inn?

sly rampart
#

not all of it

Partially

wintry chasm
#

The issue with that is it's only cutscene not all the dialogue

sly rampart
#

^

glossy flare
#

Some of the questlines are part of NG+ at this point

#

But that would mean completely replaying them which you are kinda avoiding right now sooo...

wintry chasm
#

Yeah you really really got the wrong idea about the story in this game

sly rampart
#

Yoshi made ARR shorter and easier for players like you

#

but it still wasn't enough

wintry chasm
#

It really is enough

I finally powered through and got past the snore fest that was getting a fucking mining cart. Do I have long left in the MSQ and how much of it is bullshit like getting a fucking mining cart?

0% bullshit

And uhhh

sly rampart
#

I know it's enough. But the fact that dude wants to skip 2.5... Edit: Post-ARR

Eh idk about how much left tbh

well...I have the general gist of the Hildibrand story thus far, so I suppose I can go back to reading

You mean in Shadowbringers I assume? There's still a bit to go

wintry chasm
#

I know it's enough. But the fact that dude wants to skip 2.5...
That has nothing to do with the patch quests tbh

timber flame
#

Yea

young fjord
glossy flare
#

You will go back to Kholusia for a bit and then a whole zone after that

timber flame
#

They have ruined it for me with these bullshit quests and storylines

young fjord
#

Azys lav and?

wintry chasm
#

Name?

sly rampart
#

That's just what i call Post-ARR

timber flame
#

That mining cart was a joke

young fjord
#

Harrowing

glossy flare
#

Azys Lla and Hinterlands

#

They have ruined it for me with these bullshit quests and storylines
@timber flame I'm gonna recommend not playing the game then

#

Shadowbringers is viewed as the best expansion in terms of story by the majority of people

#

Not saying you're wrong of course, but this game might not be for you

timber flame
#

The main story I'm assuming, not the bullshit sidequests

#

Did any of you enjoy getting a mining cart?

glossy flare
#

I mean... sidequests are kind of irrelevant for the most part

#

And I will admit, that part was more on the weaker side of ShB

timber flame
#

Sidequests you're forced to do, like getting a stupid mining cart

young fjord
#

It's side quest, if you don't want to do it, then fucking don't lol

sly rampart
#

I don't even remember the minecart stuff, If i had to do it for MSQ it was important and I did it

glossy flare
#

Doesn't mean it's bad

timber flame
#

I don't mean actual sidequests. I mean the pointless quests in the MSQ

sly rampart
#

they're talking about the stuff you do for Twine

glossy flare
#

It's the whole ||we gotta get the Talos working again so the doors will open|| stuff

timber flame
#

Stuff in the forest before that was pretty muck also

wintry chasm
#

The minecart bit is boring yes

#

Stuff in the forest before that was pretty muck also
...

#

Right anyway

glossy flare
#

Again, you don't seem to enjoy yourself

#

This game might not be for you

sly rampart
#

I don't know why it took you getting to Shadowbringers to realize you don't like this game

timber flame
#

I'm not interested in your canned answers, thanks

wintry chasm
#

Yeah so uh

glossy flare
#

Dude, I was trying to give you legitimate advice

timber flame
#

I want to know how far I'm off from the end

wintry chasm
#

I think Perfect got his answer, people can like and hate what they want

#

Let's end it

glossy flare
#

I told you

#

You are almost finished in your current zone

#

You have the second part of ||Kholusia ahead of you||

sly rampart
#

you have until the rest of the game to be done with the MSQ

timber flame
#

Sorry, missed it

glossy flare
#

Plus the last zone

#

So still quite a bit

ionic hazel
#

is there a trick on not letting ur buffs as sam fall off?

timber flame
#

@sly rampart how original

wintry chasm
#

Also what Cypher just said is about the base story not the patches on top

ionic hazel
#

i sometimes forget to refresh them when I use Meikyu Shisui

glossy flare
#

True, there are still 3 patches of story content after that

wintry chasm
#

Honestly Gabe by just paying attention to it a lot

sly rampart
#

Is 5.1-5.3 not considered base story?

wintry chasm
#

That and following a rotation

#

No Deirdre

glossy flare
#

Base story usually refers to the X.0 patches

wintry chasm
#

^

timber flame
#

Base story is good - Garleans, Ascians etc.

wintry chasm
#

5.1-5.3 are patches

#

And thus are not base

timber flame
#

Most other stuff is crap

oak ice
#

Do not refresh buffs with Meikyo Shisui @ionic hazel, for the love of everything

glossy flare
#

You should check out the Sam rotation @ionic hazel

#

It's designed to not make them fall off

#

But other than that, yeah, just pay attention to them and be aware when to start which combo

sly rampart
#

Then you've got like 3 dungeons left.

#

and all the stuff that happens in-between the dungeons.

oak ice
#

As long as you do the rotation the buffs will not fall off other than long boss transitions

ionic hazel
#

I didnt say i used meikyu to refresh buffs

spare plinth
#

If youโ€™re a healer and you donโ€™t know or remember the mechanics of a primal boss, should you keep attacking still?

ionic hazel
#

im not that dumb

oak ice
#

Oh, I must have misread, then

#

Good

sly rampart
#

Oh, there will be 1 more section of "meaningless tasks" @timber flame in Kholusia

wintry chasm
#

If youโ€™re a healer and you donโ€™t know or remember the mechanics of a primal boss, should you keep attacking still?
Yes

#

Just react as stuff happens

glossy flare
#

Actually, the balance has this nifty sam roation pic, lemme look for it

calm phoenix
#

If I ever find Cornu and I am in gpose with it, will she disappear in gpose if someone slays it?

glossy flare

#

steals

#

Thanks

#

I just use the 50-80 SAM YT vid

glossy flare
#

tbh, that pic obviously loses relevance pre 80

#

Because it assumes the full skillset and decent gear

oblique trellis
#

oh, true, I see skills I don't have yet - well.. the YT vid explains the level 50 opener.. so if you want a link for that @ionic hazel I have it copied ready to dm you (dunno if I can do YT links in here)

tardy patio
#

is there a way to tell when the bozja dungeon will be up?

#

Im not even 10 yet but this place is unplayable when it is for those that arent in it

glossy flare
#

It's handled like a CE

#

so you'll get a notification to "queue" for it

halcyon glen
#

One that, as best we can tell, spawns if there are enough rank 10 players in an instance at the 1 and 2 hour marks

tardy patio
#

Someone in shout chat told us it was gonna pop in a few mins tho, how did he know that

fair sigil
#

@glossy flare Do you have one of those Cheat sheets for DRK?

errant ginkgo
#

Hello, I'm a solo player and I just wanna ask what's the first end-game content that's going to require me to join an end-game group. I've pugged my way through so far, and I was wondering what the wall is rn.

glossy flare
#

There is one for the opener, yes

#

But actually i recommend just checking out the balance

wintry chasm
#

The harder current savage tier fights @errant ginkgo

glossy flare
#

it has way more in depth resources

#

!faq balance

zinc orbitBOT
halcyon glen
#

The ABSOLUTE farthest you can go without a static is Ultimate. Iโ€™ve seen the latest Savage pugged.

fair sigil
#

@glossy flare THANK YOU!!

wintry chasm
#

So right now we have E5-E8S as the current savage tier fights that are relevant and E6S might be a pain pugged but E8S is going to be really really annoying

glossy flare
#

oh... nvm

oblique trellis
#

What is that potion @glossy flare ?

halcyon glen
#

Tincture of Strength

#

Grade 3

glossy flare
#

^

#

you pretty much just use the highest grade potion that boosts your jobs primary stat

oblique trellis
#

I can't remember the last time I used a potion for anything =\

halcyon glen
#

Thatโ€™s for damage optimization. Learn the fight first and when youโ€™re doing enrage prog and stuff you can start using pots to boost damage

oblique trellis
#

Makes sense

glossy flare
#

To be fair, the potion really is just for absolute optimization of things

#

Don't bother using them in dungeons for example

halcyon glen
#

When youโ€™re not in super endgame content ignore them yeah

oblique trellis
#

yeah idc about that, if I can finish dungeons without it.. then I prob won't use it

halcyon glen
#

Itโ€™s just a boost to your damage during the opener

oblique trellis
#

Was that last pic a Sam pic too?

glossy flare
#

No, that was for DRK because someone asked

oblique trellis
#

and are there more pics like the first SAM pic? For like Ninja and stuff?

glossy flare
#

the larger one is for sam

#

!faq balance

zinc orbitBOT
glossy flare
#

go there, be enlightened

halcyon glen
#

Some classes have those info graphics, some donโ€™t need em

glossy flare
#

Yeah those pics are for the more complex rotations/opners

oblique trellis
#

or confused ๐Ÿ˜„

glossy flare
#

Or the ones that are not that intuitive

#

But truth be told, DRK is super simple

oblique trellis
#

yeah that's why I was wondering about NIN, not sure I need it on my SCH

glossy flare
#

Eh, healers don't really have a rotation anyway

#

They are more situational and dependant on the fight

oblique trellis
#

is that from this discord you sent me to?

glossy flare
#

Yes

#

They are all about job optimization

#

Including gear, rotations, melding and whatever have you

halcyon glen
#

Hey, scholars at least have more complex damage options than White Mages

glossy flare
#

That is... not hard ๐Ÿ˜„

fair sigil
#

Just finished ARR (as WAR) and switched to DRK upon reaching Heavensward. What's the best way to level up DRK so I may continue MSQ as DRK?

No, you can do them with any job

#

What login restriction? ๐Ÿค”

coarse tapir

Well i entered my password wrong too many times and ended up getting locked out

young fjord

30min -1h

30 minutes, or reset your password to get rid of it

coarse tapir

Ah thanks

I'm just staring at quest text rn while I look through that discord - could be why I'm still in

@calm phoenix dunno if it helps, but if she got the Companion app on her phone, she could check market without you logging

strange coral
#

@calm phoenix People undercutting. Some items have become more common thanks to Bozja lockboxes, thus flooding the market and getting cheaper. It could be one of those items.
