rotund sable
#

upgrades to white mage

remote lintel
#

if you don't have stormblood your choices are thaumaturge or arcanist

scarlet hinge
#

because there dps is not as high as summoner and black mage

remote lintel
#

which become black mage and summoner

native spindle
#

so which class should i choose?

remote lintel
#

whichever

oblique trellis
#

whichever sounds more appealing

faint flare
#

Arcanist or Thaumatugre or Red mage

scarlet hinge
#

one is considered hard

faint flare
#

Whatever you have access to

#

And like

scarlet hinge
#

if u like a challenge play summoner

drifting burrow
#

is finishing shadowbringers main scenario requried in order to do yohra raid?

remote lintel
#

summoner is only harder at the higher levels

faint flare
#

Yes

native spindle
#

this is my first time playing a game of this style so im just doing what ever the game is telling me lol

rotund sable
#

THM/BLM has to use its kit to avoid mechanics hurting its damage, SMN has a harder base rotation but can do a lot of damage on the go

remote lintel
#

then get them both

rotund sable
#

by all means try them both out

faint flare
#

All jobs are fine

#

See the video in pins

rich bay
#

How does lost mimic work?

#

(R15 Bozja action)

faint flare
#

Copies the Lost actions that the target has and completely refreshes the charges

obsidian patio
#

I wonder if it can copy mimic

#

For infinite mimic shenanigans

#

Like Arise+Mimic

faint flare
#

I think people haven't tested it buuuuut there is something

#

"My friends tested Mimic on each other, it only copies the active actions, not the spirit, and it doesn't bypass restrictions. Tank had lost slash, friend as a healer copied it and cannot use it."

#

It didn't seem like mimic itself got changed or anything

#

But I don't think anyone has fully tested it

haughty kettle
#

Hey guys I’m a free trial PC

faint flare
#

Especially since mimic is rare

haughty kettle
#

Anyone knows a good place to get CD keys ? I don’t have too much money rn 😭

#

And I really liked the game

remote lintel
#

newegg, greenmangaming

faint flare
#

Greenmangaming or Newegf

haughty kettle
#

Thank you! I will check it out. 💕

Hello, I just got my first job (White Mage) and started to get a lot of abilities so playing with key settings I tried using a controller and it's just great. With muscle memory I can do everything fast. Mi question is: How far can you get using a controller? Are other jobs harder on controller?

faint flare
#

Very far

remote lintel
#

controller is fine

faint flare
#

You can clear everything

remote lintel
#

you can do everything on controller

#

I use it

faint flare
#

All jobs are fine om controller

remote lintel
#

i heal savage with it

#

its fine

umbral lance
#

For this recent step of the relic quest, can you abandon it and pick it up for another weapon and still keep all the memories/progress?

faint flare
#

Make use of the extended hotbar and wxhb to access 3 hotbars at quick notice

#

Yes

#

You rarely ever lose items in your direct inventory

umbral lance
#

Just had to be sure. It takes a hot minute to get them all if you aren't HW Fate farming :p

faint flare
#

I finished mine in like an hour in bojza

#

All 3

#

With bitters

#

🤷‍♂️

umbral lance
#

your mother must be proud

faint flare
#

Shits quick

cold cove
#

Thank you. I was scared to get used to using a controller and when I get to higher levels I had to change to keyboard.

remote lintel
#

the game is made to be played on ps4 so

night minnow
#

Do I need to buy a permit again when relocating a house?

faint flare
#

No

night minnow
#

thanks!

rich bay
#

I think Mimic only copies skills with charges left

#

Not sure, can't test it yet. Only R12.

#

But i can test it once i am R15 ofc.

#

(Sadly you can only get it yourself by rescuing all 6 hostages in Bozja Castrum)

Does someone has a list of the mettle required for ench rank?

leaden ginkgo
#

does ppl do pvp cause i am stuck in the q for 30 mints

faint flare
#

Not really

halcyon grail
#

Paladin question- my defensive rotation is Rampart and Sentinel with Sheltron in between to cover the gaps?

leaden ginkgo
#

ok then

#

how ill get this new pvp gear

faint flare
#

And reprisal and Arm's length

leaden ginkgo
#

for shadow bringer

faint flare
#

Que frontlines daily

#

At peak times

halcyon grail
#

Arms length just slowing mobs down?

sharp meteor
#

where should i fate farm at 61?

faint flare
#

It slows their attack speed

#

Meaning they hit you slower

#

Thus you take less damage

halcyon grail
#

Right

faint flare
#

Also actively use Hallowed

halcyon grail
#

Right

rich bay
#

Does the argumentation for the Bozja gear also drop in Castrum?

slate arrow
#

yes

faint flare
#

Yes

#

In all chests

halcyon grail
#

It just occurred that PLD seemed to have less defensive powers than I thought it would

faint flare
#

It has the passive block for extra mitigation which adds up alot

halcyon grail
#

Fair

faint flare
#

Plus it has more tools for supporting the party than other tanks

halcyon grail
#

Doesn’t GNB have passive parry too?

faint flare
#

All tanks have a passive parry

jade quartz
#

All jobs have passive parry

#

Including dps and healers

faint flare
#

Paladin has block as a extra

halcyon grail
#

Paladins just have a better one?

faint flare
#

Parry is weaker than block

#

Paladins have both

sharp meteor
#

after i get 20 of X memory for the relic quest, will that type stop dropping?

wispy parcel
#

Nope it'll keep dropping as long as the quest is active

sharp meteor
#

so i can get unlucky in bozja and end up with 50 of one type and 0 of another?

faint flare
#

Depending how much you farm each zone

#

And drops

#

Potentially

#

The rates are decent especially in a party all farming mobs

wispy parcel
#

I find that drops differ depending on where in bozja you are

faint flare
#

Because different areas drop different memories

dark gust
#

i finished the Heavensward ark but my Allagan Tomestones of Phantasmagoria
is 2000.. how can i go to Eulmore to use them?

obsidian patio
#

Can’t.

#

You need to beat shadowbringers leveling story to be able to spend them

dark gust
#

great.. im fked than lol

obsidian patio
#

@sharp meteor

Tortured drops in the south section, Sorrowful in the middle section, and Harrowing in the northern section.

#

Bitters drop in all 3 sections at a lower rate

wispy river
#

Is it fine to meld materia viii on ilvl 480 or 490 gear or hold on to them? I recently hit 80 and am wearing full neo ishgard gear, starting to get crystarium gear?

obsidian patio
#

You can use grade 6 materia as cheap reusable melds

#

They have a 100% chance of getting back from the gear

#

Unless you don’t mind the chance of failure for retrieving grade 8 materia and replacing it

wispy river
#

what about grade 7?

twilit arch
#

grade 7 is worse than grade 6

obsidian patio
#

Those should only be used in overmeld slots due to ^

wispy river
#

interesting. ok, thanks!

robust crow
#

personally I just meld grade 8s in everything

#

you get a boatload of them from just one hunt train

#

if you are wearing full neo-ishgard or augmented ishgard you may as well meld 8s

#

since crystarium gear comes very slow, and it also depends if you plan on doing savage or not

#

you'll probably be using augmented neo-ishgard for a while if you don't do savage

#

well, there's also the argument that there's not really any reason to meld at all if you don't plan on doing savage

blissful matrix
#

You can augment Crystarium gear using Neir raid tokens

#

coins

robust crow
#

yep, one coin per week

blissful matrix
#

1 from each (1 a week from Puppet's bunker)

robust crow
#

in addition to the allegory cap to buy the crystarium gear to begin with

#

means on average you'll get one piece of augmented crystarium every 1 or 2 weeks

#

depending on the piece

leaden ginkgo
#

maximum beast tribe quests are 3 dailys right

slate arrow
#

3 per tribe up to 12 a day

#

you can get up to 6 a tribe assuming you rank up the same day

leaden ginkgo
#

ok

#

i had 12

#

i did 3

#

but now i cant do more ?

#

@slate arrow

jade quartz
#

12 allowances across all beast tribes

leaden ginkgo
#

oh okay

#

so 9

jade quartz
#

So you can do three quests from each of four different tribes

leaden ginkgo
#

wait isn't there only 3 new tribes

#

pixie dwarf and Q

slate arrow
#

the last three should be considered free spaces

leaden ginkgo
#

oh okay

slate arrow
#

use them on old tribes or spend them on the rank up bonus quests

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

sour ruin
#

They've already said no event this year but has there been a statement about a few Halloween themed mog station items going on sale yet?

twilit arch
#

last year's rewards will likely be put on mogstation yeah

#

But doubt they'll do a sale on them specifically

sour ruin
#

Darn I really want the some items but they seem pretty pricy for digital items

robust crow
cyan fable
#

Should all three tanks have their Grit/Iron will/etc on?

#

in a raid

carmine lodge
#

hey, I'm waiting on the 2nd part of the coeurlregina fate in Twintania,, is it guaranteed to happen 4h after the first part?
weather is the same, no royal levin thinkeyes

remote lintel
#

use centurio discord for those fates

#

@cyan fable they dont need to

#

unless they each need to aggro something

robust crow
#

a good personal rule I like to follow is to let the main tank have tank stance on for like 20-30 seconds

#

so they keep aggro

#

then turn your own stance on so you can get aggro right away if he dies or adds spawn

warped nest
#

/\

cosmic reef
#

I usally do 5-6 GCD buffer before I pop Tank stance

warped nest
#

While you can just provoke and turn on tank stance if MT dies

#

It is just easier to turn on tank stance a few GCD into the fight and leave it on

cosmic reef
#

Let them wail on it for 6 GCDs before you tank stance in turn

robust crow
#

yeah

#

do your opener and stuff

#

maybe 1 rotation of your combo

#

then weave tank stance in

cosmic reef
#

I usally do it RIGHT after I use confitior

#

That's my okay. I have no burst that'll steal agro now

warped nest
#

So anyway: other tanks don't need to have tank stance, but it is good to have on as safety net just in case

worthy oriole
#

I figure I'd try to find a discord and see if I could get some help my account was hacked about an hour ago and I recently got back in and checked everything and filed a ticket and now my account is basically acting like its banned is there anything I can do cuz I've been stressing for a good while trying to figure out what to do and nothing is giving me answers

leaden ginkgo
#

did they add the relic ?

#

the 5.3 ?

wispy parcel
#

yea the upgrade was added

leaden ginkgo
#

where to pick up from it ?

wispy parcel
#

in Gangos

#

you get there via the Doman Enclave

obsidian patio
#

If you haven’t started the resistance relic quest series at all the first quest is in Kugane at the market area

fast hull
#

what's up the red chocobo and spams in reddit. Is there something special about it

wispy parcel
#

Its sort of a mini-savage fight

#

a lot of people wipe to it

cosmic reef
#

Basically yes.

It makes tank swaps easier.
It makes grabbing ads easier.
Makes accidental deaths not a disaster

wispy parcel
#

just use lost reflect and his attacks dont work on you

cosmic reef
#

The only... really bad part about it is...

#
  1. The rotating meteors. Sometimes easy to mess up when cross comes up
scarlet hinge
#

Do the paladin artifact head gear and the level 80 sam set face mask work on vieras

cosmic reef
#
  1. People standing RIGHT in the safe spot for the moving meteor attack
wispy parcel
#

as long as it doesnt cover the ears it should work

cosmic reef
#
  1. Standing 2 inches too close to the center of the map and the proximity markers killing you
scarlet hinge
#

still waiting for the update where my vieras ears will pop out of my dragoon helm

drifting burrow
cosmic reef
#

Gotta go do a quest

twilit arch
#

you need to do the quest "Bird in Hand" at bentbranch, central shroud

cosmic reef
#

Outside of Gridania

#

Big old chocobo stable and such

#

And they'll give you the ability to do that

fast hull
#

@drifting burrow you can't stable your chocbo yet since you haven't completed the quest my Fiesty Chocobo (a way to let your chocobo fight/heal you)

drifting burrow
#

i have pikaO

twilit arch
#

my feisty chocobo is not the quest that unlocks the ability to use the stable

#

its Bird in Hand, like i said

fast hull
#

ah sorry that

drifting burrow
#

okie thank you

fast hull
#

when do you use consolation? should it be used everytime or emergency healing?

#

I just spam it

whole wasp
#

It should be used everytime.

#

Its essentially free

scarlet hinge
#

What nier automata items are u able to get in the game?

austere meadow
#

Is there a suzaku minion?

whole wasp
#

Even if you dont need the healing, the shield is useful too until it dissipates.

twilit arch
#

yes but its from shadowbringers OST

whole wasp
#

What nier automata items are u able to get in the game?
The pod as a minion, glamours like 2B's and other role dependant designs based on YorHA operators.

hazy shadow
#

Probably dymb question, but, I've seen it mentioned to have augmented neo ishgard gear, however, how do you augment it? Do you need to get it pre-augmented or do you buy base then augment?

fast talon
#

So I'm in Dragonsong rn, got a good number of lvl 60s and stuff, but I kinda want to start a new class. is going hunting log -> duty roulette/dungeon spam the best way to get levels early on or is PotD like the fastest way if starting at lvl 1

patent citrus
#

how can i preview fish in aquarium?

twilit arch
#

you exchange Neo-ish gear for Eulmoran Certificates of Novelty, and use that plus Undersea rain bought with phanta to augment the gear @hazy shadow

whole wasp
#

You cannot buy augment neo ishgard. To augment crafted gear, you gotta trade it in to rowena for some seals and trade the seals for the augmented version

hazy shadow
#

Ah, I see. Thank you.

patent citrus
#

@fast talon yeah usually 1-15 hunting log and 15-60 potd? 🤔

#

unless you are a tank/healer

twilit arch
#

should note that the amount of tokens you get is based on what item you're exchanging and whether its NQ/HQ

hazy shadow
#

I had some pieces of neo-ish already but wasn't sure how to get the next step for them.

twilit arch
#

weapon/chest/legs gives 42 tokens per HQ

whole wasp
#

You grind to 15 for satasha

hazy shadow
#

Is it worth getting augmented or do you just go up to the next tier?

twilit arch
#

once you have enough tokens and rain, talk to hillicen

#

its up to you, they're decent hold over while you work on getting puppets/allegory gear

whole wasp
#

If not dungeons, potd is fine from the start

fast talon
#

@patent citrus Is PotD leveling effective even if youre just doing it with pubs and can only do the first ten levels, or would it be better to find a party

hazy shadow
#

Sounds good, thank you.

patent citrus
#

51-60 -> delete save game -> 51-60 again

#

at least that's what i know

scarlet hinge
#

What is the armor term for each class

fast talon
#

Okay, thanks.

twilit arch
#

i assume you mean like plate/cloth etc?

#

cos that doesn't exactly apply to 14

fast talon
#

that or they mean fending/striking/maiming etc

fast hull
#

Tenacity? I am not sure

leaden ginkgo
#

can someone tell me how to get to Excavation Tunnels to unlock the new alliance raid ?

scarlet hinge
#

i meant fending

#

and the other ones

fast hull
#

you are right about fending? "to defend"

twilit arch
#

oh if you mean the tag on gear then its:
Tanks = Fending
Drg = Maiming (slaying accessories)
Mnk/Sam= striking (slaying accessories)
Nin = scouting (aiming accessories)
Brd/Mch/Dnc=aiming
Blm/Smn/Rdm = Casting
Whm/Ast/Sch= Healing

fast talon
#

i will wonder why the melee dps have their own individual classes. even monk used to have their own before samurai.

twilit arch
#

@leaden ginkgo there should be an entrance near komra

#

different styles

patent citrus
#

I think nin main stats is dex right?

twilit arch
#

dragoon is suppose to be more heavy armoured type

patent citrus
#

and monk/sam is str

twilit arch
#

nin is also a dex user and not str

whole wasp
#

Yes

haughty spade
#

I need item level 240 set or gear, how can I get? Besides msq

twilit arch
#

buy shire gear in idyllshire with poetics

haughty spade
#

Is that the best I can do? Also when will msq give me better armor?right now I'm on griffin griffin on the wall msq

twilit arch
#

the shire gear is the best set of gear you can get for HW

whole wasp
#

Shire gear is good enough until lvl 65 dungeon

twilit arch
#

msq wont give you better gear until around 64

haughty spade
#

Okay ty

#

Where can I find the gear seller in ifyllshire

fast talon
#

in the main building in the center

twilit arch
#

in the big building in the middle of town

fast talon
#

so im not super familiar with potd, i just did it once to try it out before, but to unlock floors 51-60 i'd need to get to floor 51 from 1 with a pre-made party, yeah?

twilit arch
#

no, you unlock the 51-60 check point once you clear floor 50

#

doesn't matter if you do it with a matched or fixed party

slate arrow
#

floors 1-100 can all be played with duty finder

twilit arch
#

its floor 101+ that you need to be in a premade party to do

slate arrow
#

If you're in a non-fixed party at floor 100, that save is done

fast talon
#

oh really? i must have watched an outdated video then or something, cuz i saw this vid that said you can only do floors 10+ with a premade.

that or i just misunderstood it.

slate arrow
#

probably misunderstood it

twilit arch
#

they were most likely talking about floor 101+

fast talon
#

okay, quick question, do i need to be with the same group of people that whole time? so like even if i use DF, it would need ot be with pubs that want to climb that whole range

slate arrow
#

no, must be fixed party

twilit arch
#

if you go in with a match party, its going to throw you with whomever each set of 10 floors

#

fixed party is the only one that has to be the same party, every single time

fast talon
#

i see, guess i really just misunderstood it then, will give it a try later

oblique trellis
#

yo, it's me, back again with another question ... lol.. what point can I access Dravania? I assume it's locked behind MSQ?

fast talon
#

so just to clarify, say i cleared floors 1-10, which i think i did already, if i do queue potd again i can queue for 11-20 with DF?

#

@oblique trellis if you mean dravanian hinterlands its MSQ locked, the forelands are not, you can travel to them via western coerthas

#

unless i got the names swapped again which i tend to do my b

oblique trellis
#

I can't even seem to get to western coerthas yet...at least from Ishgard, the gate is locked

twilit arch
#

yes you can continue to floor 11-20 with matched party option

left moth
#

If you just queue in potd without exiting it'll take you to the next story stop, which is at floors 50 and 100

twilit arch
#

forelands are absolutely msq locked

fast talon
#

@oblique trellis oh then yeah, keep doing MSQ, you'll unlock western coerthas and another area through them

oblique trellis
#

just tryin to get to my ninja quest 😄

#

alrighty, off to do SAM quests then

twilit arch
#

you'll got to the forelands around lvl 52 in the msq

fast talon
#

is forelands where tailfeather is, cuz i absolutely went there before i was supposed to, tho i was under the impression Five had western coerthas unlocked

left moth
#

(So each 10 floors in sequence queue)

twilit arch
#

Yes, tailfeather is in the forelands

oblique trellis
#

I just got to HW

left moth
#

Yes

twilit arch
#

but the way to it is not made available until you progress msq far enough

oblique trellis
#

and did a tour

fast talon
#

@left moth @twilit arch okay, thanks for all the potd info, guess i'll work on that over the week so i have a way ot level my lvl 1 classes

#

yeah, i thought they had western coerthas since its unlocked pretty early. but once you get that you can just travel to tailfeather tho it is a looooong trek

left moth
#

(Once cleared potd 50can restart from there outside over and over again)

fast talon
#

yeah thats my goal, i asked earlier whats the best way to level fresh jobs and someone said potd 51-60 on loop

left moth
#

Ahh

bold trout
#

Hi guys I'm just starting to download this game. Anyone know what server has a major English community or even Filipino players? Thanks 😄

whole wasp
#

All servers except JP speak english predominantly.

#

I think most aseans are in tonberry or kujata

#

Oh and the aussies too

karmic niche
#

sometimes SEA ping to JP is high

#

idk why

#

lol

whole wasp
#

This does mean being in a JP server though so its up to you.

karmic niche
#

check your ping on each server if you could

Datacenter IP Addresses

List of IP Addresses for each Datacenter

Aether: 204.2.229.9

wheat plume
#

in ps4, i did something and i can no longer run

whole wasp
#

Yea i found between JP and NA is about the same for me.

bold trout
#

Alright I'll do that thanks guys. Elemental is JP right?

fast talon
#

@bold trout Tonberry and Kujata have the largest English speaking community in JP, I know most PH players congregate there as well.

bold trout
#

@fast talon that's good to know. I read somewhere that it's hard to create new characters in Tonberry?

fast talon
#

Yeah, it's almost always full.

whole wasp
#

yes, very hard

karmic niche
#

tonberry is full atm

left moth
#

Primal ocasionally attracts Filipino players but I couldnt say which server since its been a while since been in touch with that community

jade quartz
#

Tonberry is currently congested so char creation is impossible.

karmic niche
#

so you have to go to kujata if you want to be in JP datacentre

fast talon
#

Though you can always just visit other servers once youre in a different server

jade quartz
#

Kujata's your best bet.

bold trout
#

I guess I'll go Kujata. Is server transfer possible though?

wheat plume
#

how can I enable run with stick in ps4 again?

karmic niche
#

yeah with money

jade quartz
#

Yes, $18 USD for a transfer

whole wasp
#

if you dont mind playing with non-pinoys, you can always go onto NA servers where everybody speaks english

fast talon
#

full server transfer is possible but costs money, theres also a server visit function which is free

jade quartz
#

but you can server visit freely within your datacentre

#

So you can go play on Tonberry all you want (just can't be in a Free Company (player guild) there)

left moth
#

Running by default on controller is a matter of pushing the analog stick further then half way/walking

bold trout
#

What datacenter is NA?

jade quartz
#

Aether, Primal and Crystal.

karmic niche
#

Aether, Primal and Crystal

fast talon
#

@bold trout gonna assume youre PH, i will say lag can sometimes be an issue connecting to JP, though I've noticed using a VPN helps reduce that.

wheat plume
#

Running by default on controller is a matter of pushing the analog stick further then half way/walking
@left moth Yes, but I can no longer run even pushing the stick to the maximum

jade quartz
#

@wheat plume if you have a keyboard for chatting, you may have accidentally pressed the keybind for toggle-walk which is numpad /

fast talon
#

and knowing how inherently inconsistent PH internet can be idk if connecting to an NA server will be much better

left moth
#

@wheat plume is the controller sensitivity setting modified?

bold trout
#

@fast talon I see my ping in elemental is 65 I think I'll go ahead and play in JP. The other 3 are 160+ 😅

wheat plume
#

@wheat plume if you have a keyboard for chatting, you may have accidentally pressed the keybind for toggle-walk which is numpad /
@jade quartz thanks, it worked

bold trout
#

Yeah we have bad internet here 😦

left moth
#

Nvm

karmic niche
#

you have a good internet

#

come to australia

#

we will give you the worst internet for developed country

fast talon
#

thats a fair modifier

bold trout
#

oh there's Aussie datacenter too?

karmic niche
#

no

i guess for a, i guess let's say less developed country, it aint great. but considering AUS is suppsoed to be 1st world you guys have surprisingly bad internet

whole wasp
#

nope

#

they also play on kujata

left moth
#

Nope at least not yet (not likely)

karmic niche
#

and tonberry or NA dc

bold trout
#

Ahh ok I just got that now LOL

whole wasp
#

thats part of the reason why kujata is bursting at the seams

fast talon
#

me and my friends decided to go Ramuh because it was a preferred server when we started

yeah no one here speaks english

whole wasp
#

oof

karmic niche
#

i play in NA DC because of my internet couldnt handle JP

fast talon
#

sort of lucky im a weeb and can read some JP lol though i cant read kanji to save my life

karmic niche
#

ew weeb

bold trout
#

In making an account I should choose Japan then or does that not matter and choosing datacenter is in-gamee?

karmic niche
#

your account should in EU

#

i think

#

but your character will be in JP datacentre if you desire

whole wasp
#

doesnt matter what account you choose

#

as long as the version of the game you buy is the same region

#

if you buy the game

fast talon
#

@bold trout if youre PH there's a facebook PH FFXIV group that might be able to help, i think making your account EU will be easier down the line and is actually cheaper when paying for subscription

whole wasp
#

i live in SEA, i have an NA acc, i play in the EU datacentre

fast talon
#

also in SEA, have an NA account, the only major issue i encountered was that i had to provide an NA address when I wanted to buy the game, luckily I was able to use a relative's

whole wasp
#

oh i just used 123 beverly hills

karmic niche
#

<.< i should have pick NA account instead of EU haha

bold trout
#

Ohh alright I'll go for EU since it's cheaper loool

fast talon
#

This is only gonna be an issue for you down the line if you decide to buy the game (and the free trial has a looooot of content so its gonna be a while) but I know that some ISPs in PH have issues when it comes to buying the game, when it happened to me I used mobile data and it worked fine.

Just throwing it out there since it caused me an afternoon of frustration when it happened to me and I thought i had wasted money for it to not allow me to buy the game.

I have a quest that won’t show up.

Does anyone know how to get a quest that’s not showing up to show up?

jade quartz
#

Can't answer that without specifics

#

What's the quest and what's the problem?

lapis bolt
#

Nvm I’m dumb. I found it already picked up in my log….

#

I checked my log before I asked here, but I didn’t see it. I checked again and there it was….

fast talon
#

@hazy shadow idk that quest since im not in ShB yet (just did a quick google to see it) but if its an MSQ quest wouldnt it be easier to just duty finder instead of party finder?

#

i admittedly dont know anything about it cuz, again, only in HW

hazy shadow

It stated over 30+ minutes for queue pop

#

As a healer.

fast talon
#

oh oof

hazy shadow
#

PF seems to have done me some good, thankfully.

bold trout

Anyone can help? An email has been sent but it doesnt tell me where to enter the confirmation code

fast talon

I honestly dont remember since I made my account a year ago, have you tried the mog station?

bold trout

Can't login since I dont have an account yet

Okay, so I decided to make a new SE account with a temp email (hoping that's fine) and I got to this page after registering an account

#

@bold trout

bold trout
#

Alright I may have to make another email 😅

fast talon
#

yeah idk waht happened on your end

bold trout
#

Is it possible to transfer an account to another email?

fast talon
#

after putting in the details

#

it immediately sent me to the page where you enter the code

queen yoke
#

How can I get the glamour recipe?

bold trout
#

Yeah I don't know too but I'm sure I messed up 😅

#

I'll just transfer the SE account to my main email later on

fast talon
#

can you transfer? that im not sure of

#

but hey whatever works for you

#

if you have gmail its not super hard to manage multiple emails, i did have to make a new email to play ffxiv for various reasons, but i can understanding wantin to use your main one

bold trout
#

Yeah if I can't transfer I can just use the temp one

umbral lance
#

after hitting rank 10 in Bozja, what's the point of going higher?

bold trout
#

Thanks for the help man. Now I have to check what job I'll start with

vast crown
#

some fragments require being higher rank to use

#

will probably become more relevant with part 2 in 5.4 too

obsidian patio
#

Higher rank also lets you carry more lost actions/items at once

umbral lance
#

gotcha, ty

queen yoke
#

How can I unlock the recips for making Glamour prisms?

fast talon
#

theres a vendor in vesper bay

#

you might have to do a side quest from the lady in the middle first but im not sure

queen yoke
#

I went to mhor dona because it says its there but also other forums say its in thanalan

wild berry
#

so uh im trying to level an alt job, just trying to know if theres an updated way to get to 15 fast, i've done hunting log and it left me at lv9 and im not really sure where to go from there

queen yoke
#

Get a friend to help you with hunting log

twilit arch
#

if you did the glamour unlock in vesper bay, then you need to do glamour prism unlock in vesper bay

queen yoke
#

But don't party with him

bronze narwhal
#

Levequest or potd

twilit arch
#

potd, leves are not good for combat jobs

queen yoke
#

You punch the enemy and your friend should kill it

fast talon
#

the only vendor i bought the glamour prisms recipe from is in vesper bay, but you might have to do the dye/glamour side quests there first

bronze narwhal
#

1-16 is the most annoying one

fast talon
#

theres like some lady siting on a bench asking for juice or wahtever

twilit arch
#

yes, you need to do the quest "Absolutely Glamours" to be able to buy the recipe

bronze narwhal
#

Okay I've come to bring a little question

Does 80 blue crafter set from silver script is enough to make neo ishgardian sets?

crimson wind
#

I'm a tank, what do I pull with in e7s?

queen yoke
#

Found it

#

Thanks

lapis bolt
#

Are dungeons or PotD faster for leveling up to 50?

twilit arch
#

dungeons, if your queues are 15mins or less

bronze narwhal
#

Dungeon from command mission is faster

lost grove
#

How to lvl up crafters and gathers up to 70?

fast talon
#

i did leves to level mine from 1-50 and then quests from 50-60

#

idk if it was the most efficient but i had a ton of allowances and a day to kill

#

but i reckon ishgard restoration is probably faster if you have access to it

#

i do not, hence, leves

twilit arch
#

leves are still very strong for leveling, though the main downside is they're limited by how many allowances you have

bronze narwhal
#

If you have money / DoL, firmanent is a good way

twilit arch
#

restoration is good because you can be fairly lazy with it

ornate gale
#

Does jinpu apply to higanbana

lost grove
#

Ye I need gil

little swift
#

Does jinpu apply to higanbana
@ornate gale yes

ornate gale
#

It applies to everything I assume?

warped nest
#

Yes

#

It is a attack buff

ornate gale
#

was asking cus a rotation guide had them do shifu before jinpu

#

and I was thinking wouldn't you do attack buff over sks

timber condor
#

hey so i logged in my character but im in a cell with 4 walls and i cant access the menus or anything lol did i get banned? i dont have any emails from square

jade quartz
#

Sounds like you're in Mordion Gaol. If you wait around a GM should eventually come talk to you

timber condor
#

i see, ill try waiting around hopefully not perma banned lol

ocean tiger
#

Hello im new to this game and i just got it of Steam but i cant find this registration code , anyone know how to get iit

leaden ginkgo
#

how can I unlock the Scrip Exchange NPC in the Crystarium?

#

it's there but it doesn't accept my scrips

obsidian patio
#

I think that one wants the scrip quest in Eulmore done

#

@ocean tiger should be in the CD Keys section of the game somewhere within the right-click menu

#

When you look at it in your game library

ocean tiger
#

yeah that gives me the product code and that doesnt work

faint flare
#

@ornate gale you do speed over damage to get through your rotation faster and generate kenki quicker.

little swift
#

there's a cursed opener wehre you jinpu first

obsidian patio
#

@ocean tiger that code should be the one, where are you entering it exactly in the mogstation?

little swift
#

but its not somethign you should be considering at this time

#

in general shifu > jinpu

#

because your subsequent weapon skills will recast more quickly

#

more casts = more damage

ocean tiger
#

@obsidian patio i dont see where they ask for the Product code on Mogstation.

ornate gale
#

Yeah thanks, I read up on the guide more and I got why @faint flare

ashen garden
#

I have a question about treasure maps, if I have a map that opens a portal, can I add someone to my party after I defeat the chest and open the portal to bring them in the map dungeon with me? Or do they have to be in my party during the chest part in order to be allowed into the portal/dungeon?

fast talon
#

so i only started playing last month, do seasonal events come back and do they always have the same rewards? i saw a glamour from the valentine's day event this year and i want it, but obv I missed my window by quite a bit.

ornate gale
#

Should I always try to use true north before gekko and kasha combos?

obsidian patio
#

Only if you can’t make the positional requirement

#

@fast talon previous year rewards get moved to the mogstation when the current year’s event is about to happen

#

@ashen garden they need to be in the party before you spawn the chest

fast talon
#

I see. If it's similar to the ones that are on the mog station now, do they tend to be cheaper? Like I see the glowsticks emotes and like the beach wear are all just $5 when mogstation outfits are usually 10+

obsidian patio
#

For the most part, yeah

fast talon
#

Guess I'll have to wait then

little swift
#

Should I always try to use true north before gekko and kasha combos?
@ornate gale always? not really, usually you can just move to the correct position before hitting it. true north can be used when you know you can't hit the correct positional

#

get into the habit of executing your positionals correctly instead of relying on just true north

obsidian patio
ornate gale
#

yeah

#

I just have trouble keeping focus of so many things

fast talon
#

i dont play melee dps too much but when I do I always wonder if youre expected to land positionals when playing solo

#

like if theres a tank in a party its doable, but in solo content enemies are always just facing you unless they're casting something

ocean tiger
#

ok

Why are dungeons so easy

obsidian patio
#

You can’t hit positional when 1v1 unless you stun the target

faint flare
#

Because dungeons are the most casual of content

#

They're designed so anyone can beat them

obsidian patio

In terms of the difficulty scale for instanced content they’re pretty much right at the bottom

handking is from rhaglrs/kugane

It only loses value if you're doing content that's substantially easier than your gear, in which case it's no big deal

Eulmore sells handking weapons

oh, I guess the armor set is where you say

#

oh nevermind, it was under the armor tab

so what’s the best way to find 7 more people to do a map with me? just PF?

obsidian patio

you have to pay real money for more than 2

how much does the next one cost

after 2

obsidian patio

$2.50 per month for each extra retainer

cyan fable
#

Oh damn

ocean tiger
#

@obsidian patio its says there in red the product code cant be used

obsidian patio
#

I don’t know what to say. I don’t play the game on steam/PC so I can’t give any personal experience or advice, basically everything that I’ve been saying has been from googling.

ocean tiger
#

ahh okay

cyan fable
#

Another question about retainers, after you make one. Can you delete them after if you want to make a new character

#

for retainer

jade quartz
#

You can, but instead of that you should just use a retainer fantasia.

cyan fable
#

real money?

jade quartz
#

They can be purchased on the marketboard for a few thousand gil.

cyan fable
#

ohh

#

Thanks for that!

#

I'll keep that in mind

#

Also, I just put something on the MB right now. When it sells, where do I collect the money? From the moogle?

#

or my retainer person

honest anvil
#

Your Retainer

cyan fable
#

Gotcha

honest anvil
#

also unlock retainer venture asap

#

so you can make your retainers get items for you to use in crafting

cyan fable
#

Oh, thanks for that! I'll do that right away.

bold trout
#

Is Machinist good for a starter?

jade quartz
#

You can't start a new character as a machinst--you have to get to level 50 and progress MSQ until you can enter Ishgard (first expansion) first

#

But if you've gotten to that point

#

then yeah go ahead and pick it up.

I enjoy it a lot since you have a big freedom of movement as well as good solo damage

@bold trout if you do want to do a machinist, it might be useful to start as a archer/bard since they have the same role and will share the same armor, so you won't have to get new armor when you get around to unlocking a machinist (assuming you keep your old stuff) though they play pretty differently

I didn't even know /cpose with a weapon out was a thing

spare plinth
#

is the main priority of new players is to complete msq before focusing on other stuff like alt jobs and doh/dol jobs?

fast talon
#

I'm of the opinion that it's mostly your call. Maybe do MSQ up until you get access to the three starting cities so you can have access to all the base classes/jobs. I imagine focusing only on MSQ with one job (esp ARR's MSQ) could cause burnout

twilit arch
#

its honestly up to you

#

we generally recommend focusing on the msq first because it is required to unlock pretty much everything

#

but if you're not having fun or you need a break or just want try out other jobs

#

Go for it, there's no "you must absolutely it it like this!" way of doing things

spare plinth
#

i usually try to complete the msq as fast as possible since who knows when 6.0 will be announced

twilit arch
#

6.0 isn't going to be for another year at least

spare plinth
#

if im burnt out i usually take a break before switching to another job

twilit arch
#

its not not happening anytime soon

spare plinth
#

usually expansions are released every 2 years?

obsidian patio
#

Yeah

spare plinth
#

arr 2013 hw 2015 sb 2017 shb 2019

#

so 6.0 may come around mid 2021

twilit arch
#

you still have atleast 10mos

#

covid has made a mess of things

spare plinth
#

i think that's enough time for someone to complete msq from arr to shb

obsidian patio
#

Coronavirus put a 3-month delay or so. Assuming no further delays it’s likely coming in august/September

spare plinth
#

im already at 4.1 in msq

twilit arch
#

6.0 is most likely going to be some time aug/sept

#

so really there's no need to rush at all

spare plinth
#

i heard yoshi p will announce 6.0 in feb

#

#

does yoshi p foreshadow the new classes in new expansions by wearing a shirt?

#

the shirt he wears gives out a hint?

Yep

twilit arch

at the fan fests

but given things are again going to be different this time

spare plinth

i heard for sb, he wore a scarlet witch shirt, and it was to promote red mage

twilit arch
#

may not have the normal hints and teases

obsidian patio
#

Yep, for DRK he wore Batman, and for MCH he did James Bond(IIRC)

spare plinth
#

didnt he wore something a bit vague that hints samurai?

obsidian patio
#

Samurai was Spider-Man as wordplay on the director for the original Spider-Man movie trilogy

#

Sam Raimi

fast talon
#

i didnt play 14 yet back then, but i remember hearing that yoshi p hinted at samurai by wearing a spider man shirt and i found that hilarious.

#

oh there it is lol

why did yoshi p wear james bond for mch

#

does it has to do with guns?

Guns and gadjets prob

is there still issues for ps4 players of logging in?

fast talon
#

with regards to the msq thing, i figure it wouldnt be too hard to breeze through the msq if you just focused on that but theres a lot of side content that i've been enjoying with friends, like extreme trials, optional trials, and hildebrand quests

fringe whale
#

Are there any easy/fast way to obtain huge amount of elemental shard/crystal/clusters?

spare plinth
#

i heard hildebrand quests give out stuff like emotes

whole wasp
#

Gardening

obsidian patio
#

If you want lots of crystals/clusters you’ll need to do aetherial reduction

fast talon
#

they're also hilarious imo. humor is subjective but i literally laughed out loud at the ARR one

obsidian patio
#

Or just give in and buy them from the marketboard

fast talon
#

yeah sometimes when im lazy ill just buy like 10k crystals from the MB

#

not clusters yet tho since i havent needed them as much

#

clusters i just mine manually

fringe whale
#

Aren't they unsellable?

fast talon
#

if clusters are unsellable than that's that, i woudlnt know since i never checked

#

but crystals i have bough in bulk in the past when im lazy

#

esp if im planning to mass craft dye or something to sell since those usually cover the cost

obsidian patio
#

You can’t sell them to vendors, but they’re still tradeable on the marketboard/direct trading

fringe whale
#

Ah

fast talon
#

theyre usually cheap on the MB but people sell them in massive bulk so it still ends up expensive

oblique trellis
#

omg, I'm not even halfway done with Hildibrand ARR quests? Crud.. didn't know it was this long 😄

fast talon
#

its really long but honestly i enjoyed it more than most of the ARR MSQ

remote lintel
#

they go through every expansion except shadowbringers

fast talon
#

god i still hate the company of heroes quest line in ARR

oblique trellis
#

already finished ARR... was trying to spread out the quests...but now that I look it up, I'm still in ARR Hildi content

#

uuugh

#

Oh well

fast talon
#

Hildi's quests also have great fanservice for FF fans

fringe whale
#

This is a horrible relisation, I've been leveling all my professions to 30-40s and outta nowhere it tells me I dont have the crystals

fast talon
#

do you need crystals at that level range i thought you only needed shards

twilit arch
#

30+ is when recipes start needing crystals instead of shards, yeah

#

shards are mainly for low level recipes

fast talon
#

never realized. well if youre really needing of crystals a botanist/miner can gather them. theres even a skll that increases how many shards/crystals/chunks you get

fringe whale
#

I'll just buy them then. I enjoy crafting, but I hate gathering

twilit arch
#

if you've unlocked ishgard restoration/diadem

plain python
#

when you new game+, does it count some sidequests and change dialogue? For example, my first time in HW meeting the Azure Dragoon was before I finished Dragoon lv1-50 quests. Now I done the dragoon quest new game+ that part, will he recognize me?

twilit arch
#

you can also blow up sprites in there

#

but that's...not really that great of a way of getting them. like wynne noted, aetherial reduction is by far th ebest

#

yes it does @plain python

fast talon
#

quick question, to get things you can use aetherite reduction you need ephemerial nodes, right, then why not just mine the clusters directly

#

do you get more via reduction

plain python
#

if I new game+ crafter quests, do I need to craft items again?

oblique trellis
#

Wouldn't Dragoon just be 30-50?

twilit arch
#

yes reduction gives way more

#

iirc the patch notes you do not

plain python
#

well, you have to do Lancer 1-30 to access Dragoon anyway 😄

30s jump is a ranged attack.

#

The character isn’t considered to be actually moving from its original position.

oblique trellis
#

well suppose I should grab Lancer to mix among my "fresh" classes

#

Think I'm gonna do Astrologian next tho

plain python
#

whatever you want. Healer/tanker class easy to get queue 😄

remote lintel
#

they have a bunch of jumps

#

jumps to appraoch, jumps that appraoch and go back, backwards jumps

oblique trellis
#

what's liked more in general, Bard or Monk

remote lintel
#

wym liked

young fjord
#

I have more respect for people playing monk

oblique trellis
#

Liked, by ppl more

lapis bolt
#

I’m trying out bard right now (only at level 27) and started off playing the game on monk. Not a big fan of monk at all. So… many positions.

remote lintel
#

as in fun to play or as in liked by other teammates?

plain python
#

Bard gives buff, but I don't like their RNG-ness with their own skill, lol. Monk can be fun but requires you position a lot.

young fjord
#

I belive based on observations that overall range physical mains are overall worse players

oblique trellis
#

fun to play

remote lintel
#

bard

#

monk is like

#

the bottom of the list for "fun to play"

lapis bolt
#

^

fast talon
#

Unless you enjoy positionals I guess

remote lintel
#

its not the positionals

plain python
#

I find Ninja fun. Their skill feels snappy

oblique trellis
#

well I did rogue, ninja, and some sam

#

so I'm used to having to move around

remote lintel
#

every GCD on monk is a positional

oblique trellis
#

and pgl

fast talon
#

I find bard to be pretty chill ngl, i mean im only like lvl 60 so who knows if it gets worse, but theyre chill so far

plain python
#

Draggoon is positional past lv50

hasty musk
#

how do I get gear from the lvl 70 ala mhigan armor set

lapis bolt
#

Not as much as monk, though.

remote lintel
#

dragoon only has 2 positionals like every other melee

plain python
#

Monk is positional at lv1 onward, lol

remote lintel
#

@hasty musk centurio hunts

leaden ginkgo
#

are appartments also auto demolished?

remote lintel
#

no

fast talon
#

Dragoon only has 2 positionals and from what ive seen they're not even super important until after HW

hasty musk
#

cool thanks

fast talon
#

when you get that one skill that changes your first attack depending on if you landed your positional

remote lintel
#

its blood of the dragon

oblique trellis
#

and to be bard I need to do Archer first?

remote lintel
#

yes

lapis bolt
#

Yes

plain python
#

yeah archer -> bard

lapis bolt
#

Which is what I’m doing now….

#

I have to ask, is bard necessarily helpful high level or more so fun?

remote lintel
#

all classes except sam and blm are helpful

drifting burrow
#

does krakka root affect chocobo's color Confused_Dog

fast talon
#

Raiden Thrust was the one i was thinking of which is apparently ShB

lapis bolt
#

No, it’s just for training as far as I know

fast talon
#

where you need to land your positional for it even to be used

oblique trellis
#

wait, why not SAM and BLM? Aren't they top DPS?

drifting burrow
#

o thank u

remote lintel
#

they have no raid buffs skills

hasty musk
#

selfish dps

plain python
#

they don't offer party utility?

remote lintel
#

their party utility is being top dps

twilit arch
#

@leaden ginkgo apartments have no auto demolish function

plain python
#

does Leyline only affect BLM?

remote lintel
#

only affects the blm that made it

radiant brook
#

are there ffxiv housing decoration discord servers?

oblique trellis
#

Ppl don't get mad and rage quit if you queue as sam do they?

remote lintel
#

no

plain python
#

no, who do that?

fast talon
#

im sure most people dont care unless youre like super hardcore world record/speed runners or whatever

sinful mist
#

^ you can do "normal" content just fine with every class

leaden ginkgo
#

@leaden ginkgo apartments have no auto demolish function
@twilit arch so probably apartment is good to keep my decorations safe?

twilit arch
#

yes

remote lintel
#

you can do every content just fine with every class

sinful mist
#

in raid statics people could prefer other classes but honestly I think even that depends on the static

remote lintel
#

preference is just preference

oblique trellis
#

what utility or advantage does a rogue give?

fast talon
#

okay ive heard that term a lot, what does static mean? is it just a pre-made party

remote lintel
#

you can still do that content with any class

#

@oblique trellis trick attack

fast talon
#

trick attack is arguably like the best utility rn aint it

sinful mist
#

statics are basically groups that aren't FC that do the Raid Content together on a regular basis

remote lintel
#

@fast talon a group of people who get together at set times to do content

sinful mist
#

*mostly Raid

remote lintel
#

statics can be in an FC

#

just rare

sinful mist
#

yeah I meant not "exclusive" to one FC

remote lintel
#

yeah

fast talon
#

so basically yeah a pre-made party, but one with a schedule? is that makes it unique

remote lintel
#

sure?

fast talon
#

just found the term static weird, never heard it before

remote lintel
#

this games terminology is wack

fast talon
#

like in the context of a multiplayer game

#

like in other games i would call it a stack

#

like a 5-stack in a shooter or a moba or whatever

grand sierra
#

where do i go to spend white scrips peepoThink

spare plinth
#

If you’re in an eight man raid and you’re a tank do both you and your other tank turn in tank stance?

grand sierra
#

when i talk to the scrip exchange people they dont have the option

remote lintel
#

@spare plinth not at first

#

you pick a main tank and then the other one turns on stance after a bit

spare plinth
#

So after a few seconds?

remote lintel
#

yes

#

of hitting the boss that is

tidal yarrow
#

can you make your estate teleportation not available?

remote lintel
#

housing menu

spare plinth
#

So I imagine tank pulls boss and then 5 seconds later turn on tank stance?

#

Mt pull five second ot stance

remote lintel
#

yes so you don't accidentally out dps the main tank and take aggro

spare plinth
#

Ah I see

sinful mist
#

If I do OT I decide mostly per Boss if I need my Stance. If no Adds and mostly no danger of "insta-wipe" I don't turn it on and focus on DPS.

remote lintel
#

it doesnt hurt to have it on anyway

#

its a safety measure

sinful mist
#

seen it to often that i do to much DPS and get aggro from the boss in randos

remote lintel
#

turn it on after your burst phase in the opener

drifting burrow
#

what happens if you misfeed your chocobo when dyEing

#

just 1 thing doe

#

dyEING

#

HECK

remote lintel
#

it messes up the color

#

possibly

drifting burrow
#

is it noticeable?

sinful mist
#

@remote lintel are you sure I won't get aggro later if I do more dmg than the other Tank? I feel like it happens

remote lintel
#

dunno its rng what color youll get

#

you shouldnt if the MT has more than 4 brain cells

drifting burrow
sinful mist
#

well. it's duty finder

#

so I always assume they are basically a bot

#

maybe even worse

remote lintel
#

well id rather risk it than the MT dying and i didn't have my stance on

sinful mist
#

hmhm. well it probably really depends. in normal duty finder stuff even if the boss losses aggro for a few moments the group usually doesn't wipe

remote lintel
#

i would recommend having it on

fringe whale
#

Which profession crafts gathering necklace?

#

I can't seem to find it in my crafting log

remote lintel
#

probably goldsmith depending on the necklace

sinful mist
#

necklaces I assume goldsmith, but just look it up on a wiki

#

all in all. I do Tank stance as OT depending on the circumstances. Sometimes I even steal MT. It's shitty but

potent shale
#

If I purchase ff14 + 60 day card, does that I get 90 days of playing

#

🤔

fast talon
#

I will point out that lvl 59 gathering necklace is leatherworker so it does vary

remote lintel
#

if you mean the standard edition yes

potent shale
#

Ohh I see

#

Buying the Collectors Edition

remote lintel
#

the collectors edition includes the standard edition in it

oblique trellis
#

I miss not flying on my mounts 😦

leaden ginkgo
#

how can I perform emotes without showing text in the chat log?

potent shale
#

I don't think that's possible

remote lintel
#

turn off the chat log thing in the emote window

potent shale
#

Ohhh

#

that's something new

leaden ginkgo
#

other people see it too?

#

I've seen some players perform emotes and I don't see it in my chat log

charred steppe
#

there’s a toggle in your emote menu to hide text

remote lintel
#

yes

#

nobody will see it

charred steppe
#

Also add “motion” after your emote for the same effect

leaden ginkgo
#

great, thanks!

plain python
#

yeah, about to ask the same question. I secretly sneak petting on fellow Lalafell and wonder if they see that.

charred steppe
#

so /pet motion for stealth

tacit atlas
#

if you don't see it in yours then they don't see it either

severe tusk
#

I just made myself HQ Aesthete crafter gear, but have no idea when it comes to materia. Anyone have a handy guide?

remote lintel
fast hull
#

is there a few who likes to play healer? i mean weird insta que

tacit atlas
#

It's that and also that there are just 3 healers

remote lintel
#

healers usually get instant queues yes?

tacit atlas
#

In SB it used to be the tanks getting instaque if I remember correctly

signal pumice
#

hi at level 55 botanist, what collectables should i focus on? i treid to do coerthan tea leaves but i think they have respawn timer?

#

;-; sorry its my first time doing collectables so im confused

severe tusk
#

I think I read White mage is the most popular class somewhere. Its just theres so many dps players healers are needed.

remote lintel
#

popularity data isnt going to be that accurate

tacit atlas
#

Not so sure about that one lol

#

But I kind of believe it

remote lintel
#

white mage is the easiest healer

#

and also the only one you can start as

queen flame
#

As a warrior how can I carry my weapon on my shoulder like I see some players do?

remote lintel
#

/cpose i think?

#

only works when standing still

tacit atlas
#

^

fast talon
#

@signal pumice I normally choose based on what will give good exp/scrip per turn in and how high the collectability has to be. Go to Idyllshire or Mor Dhona and see how much each item gives. Also make sure you're able to actually get a good collectability out of them.

tacit atlas
#

I think that most jobs have different idle poses for different genders tho

fast talon
#

Also I'm pretty sure every collectable that you can turn in has a respawn timer.

grand sierra
#

Find a chart for when the limited time ones spawn

#

And make the rounds on those

fast talon
#

Garland Tools is your friend

remote lintel
#

yes idle pose depends on gender

pine phoenix
#

for the singing cluster weekly quests am i allowed to accept the quest once a week or am i allowed to finish the quest once a week?

tacit atlas
#

Like the dark knight male one you put sword in shoulder and for the female one you put it in front of you

pine phoenix
#

like if i take it one week and wait till next week to finish it do i get to do it again?

plain python
#

I get my gather item to lv55. The better one is from collectors' scrips?

leaden ginkgo
#

in order to get the 500ilvl relic

#

u need the 485 one right

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

the one u get with scale powder quest

#

or whatever

remote lintel
#

relic weapons are a questline

#

each stage upgrades them

leaden ginkgo
#

resistance is not futile

#

this quest line right

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

alright thanks

#

just making sure

#

is there a fast way to get poteics points

#

i bought this powder 3 times

#

i am missing a 50 point

remote lintel
#

you dont need to buy crystal sand with poetics

leaden ginkgo
#

thavnairian scalepowder ?

remote lintel
#

oh

#

roulettes, hunt trains

clever atlas
#

Is there a place I can go to, to find people to do a trial with us?

remote lintel
#

party finder

fast hull
#

? what trial are you trying to do

clever atlas
#

My bad, I mean using the discord

#

soft flicker
#

do you guys know how dark knights rest their sword on their shoulders?

#

i see them all the time

#

but mine doesnt od it 😮

fast talon
#

its the /cpose for male dark knights when they have their weapon out

#

if thats what youre talking about

soft flicker
#

awww man

plain python
#

is Final Step of faith the extreme version of Step of Faith, or is it MSQ-related?

soft flicker
#

character isnt male lol

twilit arch
#

its msq related

#

steps of faith doesnt have an ex version

fast talon
#

yeah ive just come to learn that males and females have different weapon poses, even victory and battle ready poses.

#

kinda neat but also disappointing if you dont like the one your gender has

soft flicker
#

did not know that at all

#

the male dark knight is just so much better

fast talon
#

found this video that had the ones for all classes pre-shb, dont want to make a blanket statement or anything like that but a lot of the female ones seem to lean more on the cute anime-esque trope, though DRK isnt one of them

soft flicker
#

yeah

agile laurel
#

a lot of the female ones seem to lean more on the cute anime-esque trope,
not wrong sadly

#

and some are just plain different like mnk

fast talon
#

one that stood out for me was scholar/summoner/arc

robust crow
#

male dragoons get the iconic dragoon pose you'd see in all the promotional content

#

female dragoons... don't

fast talon
#

yeah that was one of hte first i noticed

#

when i saw the male one i was like "Oh hey its the iconic dragoon pose" but when my friend, who plays a female, tried it we were like, "huh its different, weird"

plain python
#

isn't Dragoon stance is Kain from FF4?

fast talon
#

yeah but its pretty much become the iconic dragoon pose

plain python
#

(you can see it in the icon of Battle Litany) 😄

fast talon
#

hell in the heavensward cinematic trailer [character] is in that pose when they're revealed

stable hinge
#

they should just make it so we can toggle between the poses

fast talon
#

dont wanna give any names just in case

agile laurel
#

yeah, it is what it is sadly

leaden ginkgo
#

I have a question

#

im currently farming the memories of the dying

#

i collected 20 but now they're not dropping anymore

#

do i need to deliver those 20 first?

obsidian patio
#

Nope

#

Just bad rng, you can continue earning them past 20

leaden ginkgo
#

i thought they dropped 100%

#

from fates

obsidian patio
#

Oh for FATEs I can’t say for certain. I got all of mine from Bozja itself

#

And you’re getting gold rating from FATEs, right?

leaden ginkgo
#

is that faster?

#

lemme go to a zone with less ppl

obsidian patio
#

With a good group it’s decently fast, but you need set-up time to get to Rank 8 to get the 3rd type of memories

leaden ginkgo
#

@obsidian patio ok so they're dropping again but only the one i already have 20 of

#

do i need 20 of each or just 60 of one type

minor bluff
#

2 random questions: what is the green thing next to my name in game and how can I find a list of guilds on the server?

obsidian patio
#

20 of each

leaden ginkgo
#

then how do i get it to drop the other ones

obsidian patio
#

But getting more lets you stockpile for more relics

#

They’re zone dependent

#

Heavensward Areas for Bozja Relic Memories

Tortured Memory of the Dying (Yellow)
Coerthas Western Highlands

Sorrowful Memory of the Dying (Blue)
Dravanian Forelands
Churning Mists

Harrowing Memory of the Dying (Red)
Dravanian Hinterlands
Azys Lla

leaden ginkgo
#

that makes sense

#

god i should've done this when i was farming for the jibanyan couch

little swift
#

its 100% drop rate on gold rating in the fate

robust crow
#

getting memories from HW fates is significantly faster than bozja

#

you can get all 60 memories in under 2 hours

little swift
#

you could also in theory farm the hw relic luminous crystals as well

robust crow
#

but bozja has the added rewards of lockboxes and mettle

#

and other glamours and neat stuff
