questions-and-help

[outer plank]

just keep up with your class quests and msq

[glossy flare]

It's a drop in said raid

[verbal rune]

And it's on SB?

[outer plank]

and pick up any blue icon quests along the way

[glossy flare]

ShB

Not SB

[tacit atlas]

It's a ShB raid

[glossy flare]

Actually all the gear that drops from that raid is nier themed

[verbal rune]

Oh, yeah, forgot they have a similiar name

Neat

[glossy flare]

Not only the 2B outfit

[scenic cape]

I am currently level 56 and about to get to heavens sword

[glossy flare]

*Heavensward

though they do have swords

😄

[scenic cape]

Woops

[outer plank]

@verbal rune theres 3 24 man alliances per expansion, the shadowbringer one is nier theme. so yes you can still get the outfit and it will always exist

[glossy flare]

And there is still one 24 man raid to go for ShB

[stable gulch]

i need to remember how to play rdm now

[glossy flare]

Which will, presumably, have even more nier themed gear

[scenic cape]

Either way thanks isiah

[outer plank]

@stable gulch use short cast abilities first (verfire for black or verstone for white gauge), get dual cast. then use the longer cast abilities (verthunder and veraero).

reach 80 guage on both sides

spend it on melee combo

i dont play rdm

but that sounds about right

for its core

[tacit atlas]

Hopefully you don't have an equal amount of black and white mana

But yes that's kind of it lol

[outer plank]

its proc based on verthunder and veraero right

so you essentially go back and forth with verfire and verstone till one procs?

maybe not, i remember something about being proc based on something

im tired. time for a nap

[stable gulch]

yeah it sounds vaguely familiar

i think i had a macro for melee combo

[tacit atlas]

Don't

[outer plank]

dont macro combos.

[stable gulch]

oh

what happens when you have equal black/white mana?

[scenic cape]

Dang, been doing red mage stuff and was lead to believe having them too far from equal was the bad thing

Also, you do have a skill which guarantees the next 3 proc of verfire and verstone

[tacit atlas]

You verflare or verholy won't proc verthunder or veraero @stable gulch

It's not necessary when you don't have those yet

[stable gulch]

k

[glossy flare]

Ideally you do want verflare/verholy to proc ofc, so a slight imbalance is optimal

But it's not a major thing for most content if you don't do that

[tacit atlas]

If you have 31 more of one Mana than the other you get a Mana gain penalty

So don't do that if you can help it

[stable gulch]

oh ya

[glossy flare]

at which level are you on rdm?

[stable gulch]

i think 70

i finished sblood when it came out

[tacit atlas]

It's better if you get used to making a slight Mana imbalance from the start tbh

So you do have verflare and verholy then

[glossy flare]

Then also remember to use manafication on cd without overcapping on black/white mana

Ideally you wanna use it around having 40/40 mana

[tacit atlas]

Yup

[stable gulch]

all of this sounds familiar

[glossy flare]

It doubles both so you can jump straight into your melee combo

[tacit atlas]

Between 40 and 50

Otherwise you waste mana

[stable gulch]

but foreign

ill need to practice ona dummy

[misty field]

What is the endgame like for this game?

[cedar compass]

does it matter if i blame anogg or klonogg or both?

[glossy flare]

No

@misty field That's a pretty broad question

It's challenging of course, and personally I find it fun

What exactly are you interested in?

[misty field]

Well are there raids and dungeons? is the gear important? i heard that this was a story only game form someone

[glossy flare]

It's not a story only game, but it is definitely a story focused one

For example, you can not even access the endgame without first completing the base game story and the story of each expansion

But yes, there are raids, there are dungeons, there's all the bells and whistles you would expect from an MMO

As a matter of fact you will need to run certain dungeons and trials (which are like big single boss fights) to advance through the story.

[calm phoenix]

Why has every other level 60 dungeon that I queued up on with my main has been quick queue times yet Baelsar's Wall is taking considerably longer?

[misty field]

How long is the story

[glossy flare]

By now very long

But I find it hard to put a number to it

[cedar compass]

probably gonna take you 250+ hrs to finish everything

(main story only)

[misty field]

Do i have to re-do the entire campaign for every character to reach the endgame...?

[tacit atlas]

People are quequeing for level 60 dungeons for the relic I think

[glossy flare]

You only need one character

[tacit atlas]

Baelsars wall is just slower

[glossy flare]

As each character can learn every class

[cedar compass]

@misty field yes but you absolutely dont need other characters

[misty field]

ohh

[cedar compass]

this is not wow where you make alts for every class

[glossy flare]

^

[calm phoenix]

That is a level 60 dungeon yet it is much longer wait than the other 60s

[cedar compass]

you just level another class and thats fast

[glossy flare]

You can level all the classes on one character

[tacit atlas]

Because of what I said

[glossy flare]

@calm phoenix People are avoiding Baelsar's Wall for the relic farm because it's longer and you can potentially have people with long cutscenes in it

[tacit atlas]

That one is much slower

[misty field]

What is the tankiest character?

[glossy flare]

Just takes more time so less people queue for it in terms of relic farm

[tacit atlas]

Character?

[misty field]

Class i mean

[tacit atlas]

Depends on what you mean

[glossy flare]

Well all the tanks are tanky obviously, and they each are good at different things

[tacit atlas]

All tank classes are good

[glossy flare]

None of them are the best tank though

[cedar compass]

Paladin is the tankiest

but its not the best

[calm phoenix]

Thanks for the warning. I need it for MSQ. Did not know that I am in for a long cutscene

[cedar compass]

well, they are all well balanceds

[tacit atlas]

Do you mean MT?

[glossy flare]

Eh, calling Paladin the tankiest is not exactly true

In fact Paladin is a better offtank

[tacit atlas]

Yup

[glossy flare]

Point is, all tanks are good tanks

[calm phoenix]

Paladin I hear is the most OP tank

[tacit atlas]

PLD is better as offtank

OP?

lol

[glossy flare]

No, Paladin is not an OP tank...

[cedar compass]

@misty field if youre just starting, IGNORE EVERY SIDE QUEST, do MSQ only, especially if youre in a server thats "preferred" so you get the road to 70 buff

[glossy flare]

Either way, all the 4 tanks are good

[cedar compass]

also DONT skip story cutscenes, well, in the base game you can probably

[verbal rune]

Gun breaker you need 14 fingers to play it good too

[cedar compass]

since the ARR story sucks

but it gets really, really good

[misty field]

How can i tell the difference between side quest and msq

[cedar compass]

and you wont have context if you skip early stuff so idk

MSQ quests have a special icon

and you have it at the top marked in the UI

[glossy flare]

Paladin has a physical and a magical dmg phase, the magical one being ranged which is a great boon sometimes.

Warrior has a ton of self heal.

Dark Knight has the best mitigation ability in the game.

Gunbreaker brings great sustained dmg to the table.

[glossy flare]

< - Main Quest

<- Side Quest

[cedar compass]

@misty field if you click it itll open the map whit where the next quest is

[glossy flare]

<- Side Quest that unlocks something (do not ignore those)

[cedar compass]

eh, id say its safe to ignore most unlockables early

[misty field]

Hmm so why shouldn't i skip cutscenes? is the story in the game anygood?

[glossy flare]

Most people enjoy the story, yes

[misty field]

what's it about?

[glossy flare]

It starts of pretty slow though, so be aware of that

[cedar compass]

its better than most single player game stories

[glossy flare]

Like the first 50 levels are tedious for some people

[cedar compass]

idk if you have played other final fantasies

but Shadowbringers (current expansion) is my favorite FF story ever

[misty field]

Oh yeah well i never 0play any single player games, and no i've never played a final fantasy game

[glossy flare]

Yeah, generally people agree on the current expansion having a very good story

[cedar compass]

if you skip all cutscenes etc

its going to be a MASSIVE chore to finish the MSQ

[misty field]

so should i buy base game and shadowbringers or should i buy base game for now only?

Why?

[glossy flare]

I would say don't buy anything right now

There's a free trial

[cedar compass]

imagine like 500 quests of kill 4 mobs or find 5 stuffs

with no context

one afther another

[glossy flare]

Which includes all content up to lvl 60 and has no time limit

[misty field]

ughh

[glossy flare]

It just comes with some restrictions like not being able to create parties or buying from the market board

[misty field]

yeah the free trial is downloading now

[glossy flare]

Then play that and see if the game is for you

[cedar compass]

do you have friends playing?

you should add them as your referrer

[glossy flare]

Becaus again, no time limit on the free trial

[misty field]

No i have no friends

[glossy flare]

The starter edition comes with the same amount of content as the trial, it just lifts the restrictions.

[cedar compass]

what do you want to do in the game? @misty field

[glossy flare]

Buying Shadowbringers will add the most recent expansions to your account (lvl 60-80 content)

[misty field]

I'm not sure, I'm kind of a completionist so i will want to complete i guess everything eventually.

[glossy flare]

Well there's lots of stuff to do, definitely

[cedar compass]

completing everything is uh... gonna take a while

😄

IMO

some people will disagree

but buy a story skip for ARR only, watch a recap video on youtube

[misty field]

Well i am definitely interested in endgame mainly, that's why i asked what it's like

[cedar compass]

and follow from heavensward without skipping the cutscenes

@misty field are you in EU or NA?

[misty field]

NA, is there an lfg on this discord?

[glossy flare]

#recruitment-aether for you

Assuming your server role here is correct

[cedar compass]

you dont really need a group early on tho

just for dungeons but dutyfinder will help with that

[glossy flare]

Well it's still nice to have some people to play with, but yeah, it's not a necessity

[cedar compass]

yeah but especially early on the MSQ is very solo oriented

[misty field]

Another thing that bothers me about what i know about the game is the tab targetting, do you ever get used to it?

[cedar compass]

yeah

[glossy flare]

Eh, it's kind of notorious for being annoying tbh

But you do get used to it

[vapid spear]

does every player have the same MSQ aside from the beginning job quest

[glossy flare]

But it's still bad 😄

[cedar compass]

eh, its not bad at max level

some people just dont like tab target

i do so 🤷‍♂️ its a matter of preference

but tank is going to be boring

[glossy flare]

@quick notch There 3 paths depending on the first class you choose. But once you join a Grand Company the MSQ is the same for everyone, yes.

Basically your first 15 levels of story quests depend on your starting city

[vapid spear]

@glossy flare how many hours until MSQ is the common route for everyone?

[quick notch]

thank, i already know that

[glossy flare]

whoops, wrong ping

[quick notch]

[glossy flare]

sorry D:

[cedar compass]

its like

2 hrs idk

its fast

[verbal rune]

does every player have the same MSQ aside from the beginning job quest
@vapid spear I think only the quests up to level 15 are based on the place you start with

[glossy flare]

Not that long, yeah

[gusty storm]

when do I want to redraw ast cards

[vapid spear]

k tryna to actually play the game with a friend, at the same pace

we''re different classes but same city

[cedar compass]

then the story is the same

[misty field]

So it will take me roughly 250 hours to finish the main campaign?

[cedar compass]

if its same city

[vapid spear]

How do I know when I'm on the common MSQ route?

[glossy flare]

Well if you are in the same city then your MSQ will converge after like 10 minutes or something

[tacit atlas]

When you already have the seal @gusty storm

[glossy flare]

You probably already are

[vapid spear]

oh ok

cool

[tacit atlas]

You never discard btw

[soft tundra]

Common msq route is anytime after you leave your starting city

[cedar compass]

So it will take me roughly 250 hours to finish the main campaign?
@misty field yup, more or less

[misty field]

thats insane

[tacit atlas]

Not really

[cedar compass]

i mean its an MMO, base game + 3 expansions

😄

[tacit atlas]

Remember that it's a base game and 3 expansions

So basically 4 games

[outer plank]

25 hours? ehhh

i don't think so

[misty field]

250 not 25

[crimson wind]

He said 250.

[outer plank]

to get through msq?

[cedar compass]

yes

[outer plank]

250 hours. that can't be right.

[cedar compass]

? have you finished the MSQ?...

its like 60 hrs per expansion

[fresh lodge]

It entirely depends on how quick you can read, if you're skipping the story, how long you're waiting in queue, and how much side content you're doing

250 hours is just a general estimate, not a hard number

[cedar compass]

if you skip everything

you'll most likely quit

😄

imo anyway

[misty field]

So it doesn't really tell you what you have to do? you just have to infer?

[cedar compass]

it does

[outer plank]

yes i have. it didnt take me no 60 hours of game time to get through the msq per expansion. i will say main patches take collectively like 15-20 hours. and patches can take you like 2 hours to finish. i have no clue what you mean by 250 hours to get through the msq

[glossy flare]

You can always see your current MSQ in the upper left of your screen

[cedar compass]

it tells you where to go and what to do every time

[glossy flare]

and clicking on it points you to wherever you need to go

So you always have something to follow

[misty field]

@cedar compass If it tells me what to do then why do i have to read story and watch cutscenes?

[cedar compass]

because its a story based game

[tacit atlas]

lol

Yes that

[cedar compass]

if you dont care about the story

just buy a skip

🤷‍♂️

[glossy flare]

Because people enjoy watching those cutscenes and reading the story basically 😅

[tacit atlas]

Why would you play a role playing game if not for the story

[glossy flare]

If that's not for you that is fine, but I wouldn't recommend this game then

[cedar compass]

he probably wants to raid

i dont know

[fresh lodge]

Because some people prefer the gameplay

The raids are totally fun to do

[glossy flare]

Very much so

[misty field]

I thought you said that it wasn't a story based game?

[fresh lodge]

The MSQ is

[glossy flare]

It is a story focused game

But the story is not all there is

[fresh lodge]

And you need to play tbe MSQ to unlock content

[cedar compass]

do you come from playing WoW?

[glossy flare]

You asked if this game was all story and no endgame, which it is not

[misty field]

no

[cedar compass]

this game has both story and endgame

[glossy flare]

(though there is still a story attached to the endgame and it's good too, just saying...)

[fresh lodge]

If you don't care about the story then its fine to skip it

Its a good story just not amazing

If all you want to do is do end game stuff, then I'd suggest skipping

[cedar compass]

i mean ShB is really good

i would have been fine skipping ARR and SB tho

tbh it sounds like he might enjoy wow more but thats just me

[karmic veldt]

Frankly, ShB is only as good as it is because of ARR, HW, and SB.

[tacit atlas]

^

[glossy flare]

^ 😅

[fresh lodge]

Just let him play the game and find out for himself ;_;

[cedar compass]

true true

[fresh lodge]

The free trial goes uo to 60 anyways

[cedar compass]

Frankly, ShB is only as good as it is because of ARR, HW, and SB.
@karmic veldt ehh kinda, because of the context, but for example SB was just bad storywisde

[karmic veldt]

SB was not bad storywise.

[calm phoenix]

Why has there been bad parties lately? Tanks that cannot keep aggro, healers who do not heal despite both DPS under 25%. We are talking three level 60 dungeons and a level 50 dungeon. The level 50 dungeon, they had a little bit more of an excuse because I was the only one who did that dungeon before out of us four but no excuse to be that bad

[karmic veldt]

It wasn't as consistently good as the two around it, but it was not a bad story.

[cedar compass]

it was completely meh

[fresh lodge]

Because this game has a large population and you got bad luck in your parties

[verbal rune]

Why has there been bad parties lately? Tanks that cannot keep aggro, healers who do not heal despite both DPS under 25%. We are talking three level 60 dungeons and a level 50 dungeon. The level 50 dungeon, they had a little bit more of an excuse because I was the only one who did that dungeon before out of us four but no excuse to be that bad
@calm phoenix must have been shitty luck

[fresh lodge]

I don't know what you expected us to answer

Its not like we can give you a definitive answer for why you have shit parties

[karmic veldt]

I'm also not a huge fan of setting people up to dislike something beforehand. But, hell, half the people who get fed that shit narrative come back saying "HW wasn't as good as everyone said" and "SB was better than everyone said it'd be" so maybe I should just let it be.

[fresh lodge]

Guys I'm just going to say this now

[karmic veldt]

But I'd prefer you take it to #archived-lore-spoilers

[fresh lodge]

This discussion is not happening here

Do as Rommy said and please move it to #archived-lore-spoilers

This conversation has exceeded the scope of this channel

[honest jasper]

[karmic veldt]

It's also spoileriffic.

[cedar compass]

aight sorry

[misty field]

Does the race i choose matter

[fresh lodge]

No

[karmic veldt]

Nope.

[cedar compass]

no

[fresh lodge]

Its all cosmetic

[karmic veldt]

You get like one line of dialogue in Stormblood for being a Xaela.

That's about it.

[cedar compass]

theres also a lalafel exclusive area in ShB

xD

[karmic veldt]

Oh yes.

[cedar compass]

(it really doesnt matter)

[karmic veldt]

You can go inside certain houses as a Lalafell in ShB, but there's no actual targetable NPCs inside.

So it's just for flavor.

[verbal rune]

Be whatever you want

But choose wisely cause changing race costs 10 bucks

[cedar compass]

you get a free race change

actually 2

i dont know how i got the second one tho

[verbal rune]

From what I know

[fresh lodge]

You only get 1

[sacred sable]

guys, is there a place to get all the waymark macros for trials and raids?

[cedar compass]

I have 2 fantasias

and i definitely didnt buy any

[fresh lodge]

Which is from beating the Ultimate weapon MSQ

[verbal rune]

There was a free fantasia when you did 30 days of paid subscription

But it was removed

[misty field]

does my patron deity matter?

[karmic veldt]

Nope.

[fresh lodge]

You can get an extra one from either receiving the old veteran reward, or owning the HW collector's edition

No

Nothing to do with character creation matters

Its all cosmetic/RP

[karmic veldt]

If you want to know the flavor lore on them, I can give it, but the only part of character creation that matters is your starting job, and only marginally.

(Since you can be any job on one character.)

[sacred sable]

guys, is there a place to get all the waymark macros for trials and raids?
onegai

[fresh lodge]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Not that I know of

The Balance might have something like that

[thick kindle]

If test subject VIII Dabog is up does that mean so is lost vigil or not?

[near sierra]

Can you see the exact number of xp points (not credits) your fc has accumulated anywhere in the UI?

[finite socket]

Do SE offer a few days of membership if you wanna see if you want to get back in the game?

[halcyon glen]

Normally, no. Currently, yes!

[mossy current]

Every once in a while they offer free hours

[thick kindle]

@finite socket https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/1fcca790ff2fc3ed41c05bae3b4b6f6e683e5516

[fresh lodge]

They are currently offering free game time, right now

[gusty storm]

when theres two tanks only one has tank stance on right

[glossy flare]

Usually yes

[fresh lodge]

Yes

[gusty storm]

ah i am playing dps

great

[fresh lodge]

You'll usually swap back and forth for tank swaps but for the most part only one should have it on at a time

[glossy flare]

You should still be ready to turn it on for adds or similar mechanics

[magic wren]

Can you set up macros for ps4?

[glossy flare]

Or tank swaps

[magic wren]

Or is it only pc?

[fresh lodge]

After the main tank establishes aggro, the off tank wants to swap into tank stance to build up enough aggro so that they're second on the list

[gritty oracle]

You can use macros on ps

[mossy current]

You can make macros on PS4 yes

[near sierra]

Can you see the exact number of xp points (not credits) your fc has accumulated anywhere in the UI?

[magic wren]

Thank you!

[fresh lodge]

Nope

[gritty oracle]

maybe on the fc tab Iron

[near sierra]

Looking and I don't see it. Only company credit count

Which if I'm not misunderstanding is correlating 1:1 with fc xp until you spend them no?

[magic wren]

Does anyone know the macro for shukuchi? To teleport on targeted enemy.

[remote lintel]

/ac shukuchi <t>
/ac shukuchi

It should just be

/micon shukuchi
/merror off```

Oh yeah the icon

[crimson wind]

Don't macro shukuchi

if you macro it you can only go to your target

[remote lintel]

no

[mossy current]

Wol it's fine as long as you have a non-macro'd version available

[remote lintel]

what we just posted works without one

[crimson wind]

Shuku allows you to go anywhere in its range

[fresh lodge]

That would be why we have the second shukuchi in the macro

[crimson wind]

oh

[fresh lodge]

So that it acts like normal when you're not targeting anything

[magic wren]

@fresh lodge so using the one you posted is fine, correct?

[remote lintel]

yes

[magic wren]

Thank you!

[heady orbit]

Thx

[fresh lodge]

np

[vapid spear]

Is there any quest pathing?

Sometimes my next MSQ doesnt show up on the edge of my mini map

Staring at the large map while trying to run to it is so annoying

[oblique trellis]

If it's on the map you can Ctrl+Right click to set a Waypoint

[faint flare]

There's no auto pathing for obvious bot reasons

[oblique trellis]

which will show up in the map if you're in the right zone.. but other than that idk

[vapid spear]

where's my waypoint

ugh this is so cumbersome

[oblique trellis]

Seems to be in a diff zone

[faint flare]

In a different zone

[vapid spear]

the city map is so confusing

[fresh lodge]

Just click on the quest description under the name

[thick kindle]

You can click on your quest on the right and it will open up the map showing where it is

[fresh lodge]

It should show you where on the map it is

[vapid spear]

yea but i hate having the large map open basically using that to run to it

instead of just, running through the zones myself

following the minimap

[thick kindle]

If youre in the zone it will show you on the minimap

[faint flare]

Use the Aether shards to port around

Attune to them all

[vapid spear]

you mean the return stone

[faint flare]

And then see what shard is closer to it

[thick kindle]

You'll get used to the city layout soon enough

[vapid spear]

at the start of the game

[faint flare]

And port to thst

No the smaller ones are aether shards

Which allow you to port around cities

When you interact with them

[vapid spear]

i see

[faint flare]

Always attune to aetherytes and aether shards

[oblique trellis]

The one on the right is the main one, the one on the left you can attune to and teleport to from the big one

[vapid spear]

so many icons

it feels so cluttered

[faint flare]

Cause its the market

And everything is there for ease of access

[thick kindle]

you can zoom in on the minimap , so its not as cluttered

[verbal rune]

Si

I have a problem

It's normal that my controller is suddendly fucked up?

[glossy flare]

Uhm... probably not?

[verbal rune]

With this I mean that each button/analog movement has been switched around

Anyway to reset it?

[calm phoenix]

I am supposed to fight the empire solders in magitek armor but no matter what move I use, the magitek armor does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! Everybody died and I lost because of it!!! Does anybody know what the problem could be???

[flint osprey]

Hey guys, pretty new to the game, just hit level 20! Where’s the best place to look for a guild? I think they’re called free companies in this game? (I come from a wow background)

[cedar compass]

Should I be able to pug current raid tier?

(savage) since I'm trying to gear up

[calm phoenix]

nobody knows what the problem is and why the magitek will not do anything no matter which of the four moves I use???

[oblique trellis]

any glamour !faq ?

I should prob learn how to glam

[faint flare]

[zinc orbit]

Glamour FAQ

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

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

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

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

[fluid kiln]

Hi I’m new to ff online can anyone tell me why I can’t get my guest rewards sometimes

[faint flare]

You need to pick the option

[fluid kiln]

Quest not guest lol

[calm phoenix]

why is nobody helping me??? Is my game glitched??? Is that why the magitek armor is not working

[fluid kiln]

OHHH LMAO IM STUPID

[oblique trellis]

and then plates are...whole outfits?

[faint flare]

Be fucking patient moltres

[fluid kiln]

Ty

[faint flare]

Its been one minute

Since you askef

[stable gulch]

is there a reason why i sometimes generate 0 mana for casting veraero/thunder/fire/stone

[faint flare]

Wait

[fluid kiln]

[stable gulch]

and why does verholy/flare not proc when doing enhanced redoublement

[faint flare]

You've been told multiple times to br patient

[calm phoenix]

It is frustrating as hell when I lose a solo fight because something is not right

[faint flare]

You've obviously not hitting them

ONLY YOU ever have these issues

The commom thread of the problem is you

[wispy parcel]

Moltres most of the time its just you having tunnel vision

[calm phoenix]

It does not matter who I target or what move I select, nothing happens and the one I target does not take damage

[rare hawk]

Really quick question. I am a returning player and I am looking to get back into the game. I currently have the Heavensward expansion. If I buy Shadowbringers, will that also give me Stormblood?

[oblique trellis]

I...maybe I'm confused... and could be wrong.. but when I unlocked weapons on my Magitek mount, didn't it say they don't actually cause damage?

[cedar compass]

Is it not an AoE that you have to cast on the floor?

[faint flare]

One is a large laser...one is a ground place aoe...one is a aoe infront of you and the other os something i forget

[calm phoenix]

It is not laying any kind of AoE or giving me any option to. The moves are using GCD

[gusty storm]

do you guys use the f keys

[cedar compass]

What's the instance name

[gusty storm]

f1 f2

[faint flare]

The guns are a small aoe infront of you

You need to be closwr

[oblique trellis]

I don't personally...some people do

[calm phoenix]

The quest is "Fly Free, My Pretty"

[gusty storm]

i was thinking about doing it because gunbreaker has too many buttons

[calm phoenix]

Even when I am practically right next to them, it gets nothing

[faint flare]

People use F keys to target party members quickly

[oblique trellis]

I just click on em 😄

[calm phoenix]

It is STILL not doing anything 😦

[faint flare]

https://youtu.be/mCOu-42A56A

[wispy parcel]

its a pretty simple instance, just spam aoes and keep moving

[calm phoenix]

Except nothing is happening. No matter which of the four moves I use. It does not activate AoE anything

[hazy flint]

Only 24 people queueing for castrum got to the end and the team just doesn’t work lol so annoying

[faint flare]

High powered Magitek Cannon is a giant Line aoe infront of you

[sour ruin]

Is this worth rerolling or should I go for the 2/9?

[faint flare]

Magitek cannon is a ground aoe you place

Defractive magitek cannon is a larger ground aoe

And the first skill is a small line aoe infront of you

[crimson wind]

@Skipple#3065 yes

[calm phoenix]

I noticed if I hold a button for a couple seconds, it lays an AoE but how to confirm placement and do the attack?

[faint flare]

Stop holding the triggers and press X

[calm phoenix]

The problem was I was just hitting the button like you do for attacks. I did not know I had to hold it a couple seconds

[verbal rune]

So I'm having a problem

Every time I attack my controller, inputs get changed

[faint flare]

You dont need to hold it. Just press and wait briefly for the gamr to register you selected it

No skill works by holding

[cedar compass]

can i have 2 neoishgardian rings?

[glossy flare]

yes

[stable herald]

Is there a way people can tell your currently equipped job based off your name in chat?

I was just wondering why I would be ignored when asking for party in Bozja as RDM, but almost immediately invited if I played healer

[forest laurel]

afaik no

parties were full most likely?

[stable herald]

Maybe just bad luck

[wispy parcel]

People immediatly invite any healer they see

cause healers are in short supply

[stable herald]

But since its a blob of players, i dunnoe if they can even see me?

[calm phoenix]

Why is the quest telling me to go to Mor Dhona but the map shows Gridiana? It was a waste of two aetheryte tickets

[faint flare]

Because you still have Fly free

[calm phoenix]

What do you mean?

[wispy parcel]

in your quest list

[faint flare]

Look at your quest list

[wispy parcel]

Fly Free is still active

[faint flare]

You're still on Fly free

[calm phoenix]

That is an MSQ quest icon and so is the one in Gridiana

[wispy parcel]

yea but they are 2 different quests

there are some quests in MSQ that can be 2 or more quests at a time

[calm phoenix]

No. Because when I select the one that tells me to go to Mor Dhona, it brings up a map of Gridiana instead

If it were two quests. There would be two MSQ quests on the side like before

[wispy parcel]

there are a few quests that do require you to use the air ship

usually a cutscene plays on it

[calm phoenix]

I was in Mor Dhona and the last quest automatically brought me to Gridiana and I assumed I needed to go to Mor Dhona again but there is no MSQ icon anywhere in Mor Dhona

And the map showed Gridiana whren I selected Fly Free

[dusk merlin]

There isn't a way to cheese that Kugane lamp post sightseeing log is there?

[scarlet hinge]

Should I mention a new scam people are employing ingame to one of the mods on the server?

[fresh lodge]

Not without someone already up there

[faint flare]

Get raised onto thete

[fresh lodge]

Make a modmail about it

[scarlet hinge]

what that

[fresh lodge]

#discord-modmail

[cedar compass]

when does character creation status change in a server?

[faint flare]

!faq serverlock

[wispy parcel]

every major patch

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

[fresh lodge]

Depends on the type of restriction

If a world is congested then that is only updated on major patches

If its standard or preferred but locked, then its whenever there are less people logged in

[calm phoenix]

It appears that my quest list is stuck on "Fly Free, my Pretty" despite the fact that I now done three MSQ quests beyond that! Does anybody know what the problem could be?

[wispy parcel]

I'd say just follow the steps the quest is telling you

its still there cause its not done

[fresh lodge]

3 quests beyond that would put you in Stormblood

[calm phoenix]

I had three MSQ icons since then but not in Stormblood

[fresh lodge]

Thats impossible

Fly Free, my Pretty is the second last HW quest

[calm phoenix]

Near some hut in the Shroud now

Cannot remember name of hut

That is where the next icon was

[fresh lodge]

Nophica's alter?

[calm phoenix]

Not in Gridiana, after Lotus Stand

[agile laurel]

hawthorne hut, considering the last HW quests

likely

[calm phoenix]

That is it

That is beyond Fly Free but MSQ still says Fly Free

[fresh lodge]

Take a screenshot of your quest log

[calm phoenix]

I am in cut scene right now

[karmic veldt]

It's weird that his screenshot shows The Far Edge of Fate at all.

Oh, well, if you're in a cutscene, it'll sort itself out.

[calm phoenix]

Is Far Edge of Fate wrong?

[karmic veldt]

That's correct.

It was weird that it showed it in your log but your tracking had Fly Free, My Pretty.

[calm phoenix]

And Fly Free, My Pretty is not updating step by step

[karmic veldt]

That's because you completed that quest.

For some reason it's glitching out the quest tracking.

I can see that you finished "Fly Free, My Pretty" in the screenshot you posted.

But for some reason it remained in your tracking.

[olive inlet]

I have a question about e6s. The conflag part, when dps gets chained and when airbump comes in, do dps normally go to their clock spots (w their clock partners) or do they usually go on the 2/4 markers(w their chained partners) cause sometimes one person will b anchoring at the 2 marker

[little swift]

That particular mech is where your partners aren't the assigned ones

[olive inlet]

Asking because i noticed a lot of people do one of the two choices and this part is not talked abt a lot in pug parties xD

[little swift]

You go with whoever is chained to you

Thats the most common strategy

[olive inlet]

Ooh ok

[little swift]

Its more confusing imo to run to your marker spot because you can't guarantee that both of you won't have an enumeration on you

[faint flare]

Anchor is the most common

[little swift]

^

[alpine shadow]

healers and tanks also has to be with eachother too

[little swift]

Its just easier overall to go with the person you're tethered to for that particular mechanic

[olive inlet]

Aightt, its kinda confusing cause some people complain where is my partner on that part haha

Anyway thanks! This ended my confusion :)

[little swift]

People should use their eyeballs then the game givrs enough time to see who your partner is

[olive inlet]

Yeah xD

[verbal rune]

I just want to check something on targeting with controller

Dpad up and down is to cycle between party member, while left and right to cycle between enemies, right?

[wintry chasm]

Yes

you can also do....L1 + up down to cycle between alliance members

[obsidian patio]

L1 + up/down scrolls through enemy list, L1 + Left/Right scrolls through alliance

[verbal rune]

Ah

That could explain my issues with targeting

[wary swallow]

is there a seperate sound slider i can turn off the level up music under? cuz it sure isn't bgm

i like to listen to music while levelling gatherers/crafters but everytime i level up: "DODODODODOODOODOODODOOOO"

like to keep the sound effects tho

[oak ice]

That should be under system sounds

[ripe hound]

You never really use Tincture of Vitality right?

Tanks should use STR pots right?

[oak ice]

Ye

You want more damage from pots

[gusty furnace]

do i need to be culinarian level 30 to desynthesize fish?

[ripe hound]

And Tank damage scale off STR right?

[oak ice]

Yes

[ripe hound]

Does PLD's magical damage scale off str?

[oak ice]

Yes

[wary swallow]

to this day i'm still confused why VIT pots didn't get nixed along with VIT melds

[ripe hound]

Weird

[obsidian patio]

They could be used for surviving stuff

[oak ice]

Not really, PLD builds str, not mnd or int

[wary swallow]

it'd be terribly inconvenient if it scaled off of anything other than str

[ripe hound]

Yeah some weird pot and shield to survive stuff strats maybe

[wary swallow]

i don't think anything like that exists...yet

not even in ultimates

[oak ice]

There are no differing shield types above like level 50 or 60

[calm phoenix]

Because of the glitch from earlier, I do not have the first Stormblood quest! It is NOT in the journal and selecting the old quest only brings up my journal with no MSQ quest! It said "quest accepted" with a new sound effect but no quest! Does anybody know what the problem could be?

[obsidian patio]

Shields have equal amounts of block strength and block rate past 60

@calm phoenix for once that sounds like a legitimate bug that I’d report in the support desk.

[fresh lodge]

What is the last completed MSQ quest in your journal?

[leaden ginkgo]

I’m not sure what the best AOE rotation is for DRG at 60 (most guides just cover level 80 kit). Should I be doing the normal rotation up until wheeling thrust for the extra gauge, and switch to spamming doom spike while weaving in dragon fire and geirskogul similar to the single target rotation? (Until I need to refresh disembowel). I am just wondering if I need to do geir perhaps earlier than I would for single target and geir seems pretty important for AOE but I don’t know how to best keep up blood of the dragon unless I just use it on cooldown.

Sorry for the long question

[calm phoenix]

It says "The Far Edge of Fate" was my last completed quest

[obsidian patio]

Do you have the expansions bought and registered?

[calm phoenix]

I have the Complete Edition and the title screen says Shadowbringers

[fresh lodge]

And the next quest isn't in the Rising Stones?

[civic lion]

Helllo, i have a question concerning the road to 70 buff.

I have character that had the buff but when 5.3 came my world became standard and in 5.35 my world reverted to preferred , my question is do i keep my buff till the worlds change again on it will expire after the 90 days?

[oblique trellis]

Anybody know how to show my weapon glow while sheathed (and visible)? I heard it can be done...but not sure if it's true

[obsidian patio]

The buff will expire 90 days after character creation if your world stops being preferred

[faint flare]

Sit and draw weapon at the same time

[calm phoenix]

It says '"Beyond the Great Wall accepted' in the chat window but it is NOT in my journal nor can I see the location where to go

[faint flare]

People do it via macro

[obsidian patio]

@oblique trellis Use this macro for easy access
/bm
/sit

[civic lion]

But it became preferred again and i still have the buff

[fresh lodge]

Hmm

[oblique trellis]

What's bm do?

[faint flare]

Draw weapon

[obsidian patio]

Sheathe/unsheathe weapon

[oblique trellis]

interesting

[fresh lodge]

Is it buried in your quest journal?

[calm phoenix]

No it is not at all. You can see almost everything in just the window alone

It is there now in the journal after I left the Rising Stones and it says that the objective is in the Rising Stones

But still says Fly Free on the side

[fresh lodge]

Have you tried relogging?

[calm phoenix]

Logging out and in you mean?

[fresh lodge]

Yes

[oblique trellis]

Thanks for the macro, works perfectly 🙂

[velvet sedge]

Hi what is the best/efficient way to level culinarian after 50?

[obsidian patio]

Leves, Ishgard restoration, and collectables

Also the daily GC supply turn-ins

[velvet sedge]

what would i do step-by-step and in what order?

[obsidian patio]

Depends on how much you’re willing to spend

Leves go by super fast if you just buy the items they need

[velvet sedge]

The google guide said the same thing and im just super confused

Should i just do the most recent leves

Like should i even get the gc engineering scroll to level when i cook anymore?

[obsidian patio]

For 50-60 the Leve that wants the Ishgardian Muffins is super cheap/efficient to do

But I think that’s at 52

[elfin gale]

hey guys, so i went in my free trial pretty blind (that's on me), got to 30+ in the few days and i think i'm slowly came to realization. is Shiva mostly German? 😄 i think i've made a mistake
so i looked up transfer options and rules and i think i'm just gonna make a new character instead
i don't wanna repeat the same mistake twice, so can you recommend me primary English speaking servers in EU datacenter?

[obsidian patio]

Shiva is the unofficial German world, yeah

[storm stone]

Excuse me, any french player accustomed with the game in English could help me to find the "Loam Brown Dye" 's name in French ?

[obsidian patio]

Same with Moogle being the unofficial French world

Basically pick any EU world but those two and you’re good

[calm phoenix]

Logging out and logging back in fixed the tracking. Beyond the Great Wall is on the side

[storm stone]

Moogle French boi here

[obsidian patio]

According to Garland Tools, Loam Brown Dye is “Teinture Brun Argile”

[austere vale]

Hey can anyone help me. I'm not sure how to unlock the Sundry Splendor vendor in Kugane.

[elfin gale]

oh so lucky me won the lottery except the opposite lol
shame cause i liked the name

[obsidian patio]

@austere vale complete stormblood leveling story

[austere vale]

@obsidian patio I did the boost to 70 where all story in completed.

[storm stone]

@obsidian patio Hey, i found a way to check myself before your message but i really appreciated your help, thanks

[austere vale]

So I don't know why it's not giving me options to purchase gear

[faint flare]

Did you get only the level boost

Or did you get the story skip as well

[austere vale]

Both @faint flare

I completed all the MSQ even for Shadowbringers

[calm phoenix]

How far into Stormblood can I unlock Shirogane Housing? I already have access to one ward because of FC but I want to check out others

[faint flare]

You need to reach Kugane which is after the lv61 dungeon

[obsidian patio]

I think once you get there, lemme check the unlock quest

Yep, after the first MSQ or three in Kugane

[austere vale]

@obsidian patio There is more than one stormblood msq?

[obsidian patio]

Nope

[austere vale]

i think its a trial it shows i haven't completed

[graceful bloom]

Decided to make my new character on zelera or whatever

[velvet sedge]

What is a levequest allowance? Is that still in game?

[obsidian patio]

Yes, and they’re basically currency you spend to do leves

Run out and you can’t do anymore until you recharge some back, which is 3 every 12 hours

[oblique trellis]

How do I link a location on the map in chat? I know I set a flag...I think, but other than that

[remote lintel]

ctrl right click

[oblique trellis]

That sets the flag.. do I just hit enter with <flag> in the chat?

[remote lintel]

yes

[oblique trellis]

ah ok

[calm phoenix]

Will my Aetherical Compass from Heavensward work in Stormblood areas or do I need a quest or an upgrade or something?

[remote lintel]

it works

[forest laurel]

@wary swallow really late but afaik vit pots have reaaaaaaaaally niche uses.
I saw an analysis of the 1 tank 1 healer tea clear, and the mnk was basically a mini OT, they used a vit pot to survive a tankbuster or something along those lines

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey guys is it possible to get the dark knight quest with lvl 30 on my frist role ever?

[open ember]

Did you get to Ishgard

And get to Heavensward

If not the answer is no you cant

As long as you reach Ishgard, you have access to the Heavensward jobs

Anywhere before that it is inaccessible because the guilds are in ishgard

[little swift]

Reaching Ishgard requires at least lv50

[open ember]

Yep

[little swift]

So lv30 isnt high enough

[leaden ginkgo]

i want game

me sad

[little swift]

Thats unfortunate

[leaden ginkgo]

mogstation is coming bsck as fraud

btw

Lol

[leaden ginkgo]

ok i am sorry i let my depression get ahold me

@little swift i read that crysta might be a fix for error code 401

and 601

[remote lintel]

yes

turn off your pop up blocker and a vpn if you have one

[leaden ginkgo]

also

[little swift]

Crysta is mostly to pay for subscription and in-game items though

[leaden ginkgo]

my dad was buying off pho ne

phone

could this be whats making the issue happen

@remote lintel

[remote lintel]

probably not

[leaden ginkgo]

since its windows platform

[exotic ingot]

I have gotten the recollection weapon for NIN but why doesn’t it glow?

[little swift]

You should probably also make sure you're purchasing from a correct region

[leaden ginkgo]

i am

i was buying it through purchase via mog station

[little swift]

That your mogstation account isn't different from the license region

[sleek roost]

You probably haven't done the last step yet Chooo

[exotic ingot]

I submitted 6 bitter memories already though

Is there a visual option for it?

[leaden ginkgo]

can you explain in more ditial what you mean

[blissful summit]

For the past 2 days whenever I click play on the launcher, it launches the game and sits on a black screen with the whole windows not responding thing for like 5 mins

and then the game launches fine

anyone have a fix for this?

[sleek roost]

It only glows while unsheathed

[remote lintel]

@exotic ingot did you unsheathe the weapon?

[leaden ginkgo]

this is what i am doing

[exotic ingot]

Okay I might need to check it out again lol been running errands I didn’t manage to fight anything thank you

[leaden ginkgo]

and i can use crysta

[remote lintel]

are you sure your card isnt expired or about to expire

[leaden ginkgo]

its my dads card

the company called

and said something about fraud

we got a fraud alert

so of course its not expired

[sleek roost]

If the transaction has been flagged by your bank's card monitoring team as potential fraud then you need to have a conversation with the bank about it

[leaden ginkgo]

but

could we use paypal to buy crystal is the true question

crysta

then i can just buy the game

[remote lintel]

you can't buy the game with crysta

[leaden ginkgo]

it says it right there

that i can

[remote lintel]

oh i see

if it works then it works

if your bank doesn't decline it

[vapid magnet]

if your bank already called, shouldn’t it be fine to use the card details again?

like if they already cleared the fraud thing

[hazy flint]

Where do you cash in the bozya coins

[graceful bloom]

I have literally no idea what I'm going to do lol, new character sounds like the best idea, but even then idk what server or job to start with xD

[remote lintel]

@hazy flint resistance supplier

[little swift]

Why are you making a new character

[leaden ginkgo]

oh shit theres a questions and help channel, okay

i needed help with modding, i got the basics down on how to import files and whatnot but im confused as to how people mod like custom clothes onto their characters?

[graceful bloom]

@little swift because I havent played since heavensward

[little swift]

They use the textools program to import those files over another existing item iku

[graceful bloom]

Just seems like a better idea than trying to jump back in without a clue

[little swift]

New game plus exists for the entire game now moist

You can also just take all the skills off your hotbars

And put them back one by one as you read them

And figure out how they work

Depending on what job you're using weskalber has a video for its entire leveling process and every skill they have and how they work as well

[graceful bloom]

How is black mage complication wise?

[little swift]

But a new character is fine too if that's what you want

!faq blmleveling

[zinc orbit]

THM/BLM leveling rotations

[little swift]

Its pretty straightforward if you break it down

Use fire spells to burn out all your mana to do damage

Switch to ice mode to regain it all back

Thunder spells are a dot you use on top of that

[leaden ginkgo]

so are the custom clothing items just for photoshoots and whatnot? and not for the actual gameplay?

[little swift]

The custom items will only be visible to you

[graceful bloom]

Can i start one of the new classes from the start of arr?

Or only the expansion its from?

[little swift]

You need to meet the unlock requirements for the job in question

But playing it through in new game plus would be fine

Not on a fresh character though

Unless you buy the job skip

[slender sphinx]

Can someone please help me? I just purchased the Yshtola modish attire and it's not showing up anywhere. (First time purchasing something on mogstation)

[graceful bloom]

Is tanking and healing still a pretty thankless job and tedious af?

[obsidian patio]

It’ll come to you in the moogle mail

[slender sphinx]

never used moogle mail

[little swift]

I wouldn't call them thankless jobs

[slender sphinx]

where is that

[obsidian patio]

Marked on the map with a mail letter icon

They’re the delivery moogles

Tanking is pretty easy with the tank stance changes they’ve made in 5.0

[graceful bloom]

I remember having to switch tanks in certain stuff and if you didnt do it timed right you died xD

[faint flare]

Tank swaps

[little swift]

Tank swaps are for mostly endgame stuff

Not really that many forced tank swaps in regular content

[oblique trellis]

How do I store stuff for Glamour? Like, I got Behemoth Helm...but I don't want it taking up space in Inventory...and it doesn't give me the option to drop it in the armoire?

[faint flare]

Glamour dresser

[graceful bloom]

How about the duty finder as a dps? Still a long wait? Thank you for all the answers

[little swift]

Put it in your glamour dreseer

Its long but not that long

[obsidian patio]

Most of the time it’s around 10-15 minutes

[little swift]

Like 5 to 15 minutes depending on luck

[oblique trellis]

and... I don't have to use it as glamor right away when I put it in there? Literally just storing it for now?

[graceful bloom]

Thats not bad, i remember sometimes I was waiting like 30min+

[obsidian patio]

Correct

[oblique trellis]

okies

[little swift]

There are more players now than there were in hw

A lot more

Even during the patch content lull

[young fjord]

Does Mettle cap out lol?

[oblique trellis]

Ok...it doesn't wanna let me put it in there? The prism gets used to store it?

[little swift]

Yes it does

[young fjord]

Im at 703,200 and don't get any

[little swift]

You can't gain anymore at r15

[oblique trellis]

Sigh, ok back to my retainer 😄

[slender sphinx]

Thanks for the help! @obsidian patio

was starting to panic

[graceful bloom]

Thanks for the answers, imma nap then play some

[little swift]

Thats the cap until we get the next bit of bozja

[calm phoenix]

Seriously? Did they have to put an aether current out of reach by all means requiring you to make a leap of faith and just hope you land on that ledge? It is nearly impossible to do! How in the world??

[obsidian patio]

Nope

[remote lintel]

go on top of the bridge and jump onto the ledge

[obsidian patio]

I think for that one specifically you take the stairway up the Ziggurat, stop about halfway through, and go to the sides

[calm phoenix]

There is no other way to there as far as I can see. All the jumps are too high

[little swift]

There's always a way through

[remote lintel]

oh thats the ziggurat

yes

[little swift]

Go up the stairs

[faint flare]

Go from the stairs

And walk around

[little swift]

Theres a little gap through

At about halfway

[calm phoenix]

I did that but it does not go all the way around

[faint flare]

It does

Be on the right level

[oblique trellis]

Ok, so, what's the point of the Armoire then?

[faint flare]

Some levels are blocked off

[forest laurel]

for event items

[faint flare]

Others aren't

[remote lintel]

armoire stores event items and af1 gear

[little swift]

Achievement and seasonal items

[obsidian patio]

@calm phoenix third Aether current in this video https://youtu.be/0ldhD9D90Gs

[oblique trellis]

Any reason to store them over selling/trashing them? Like my lvl 50 NIN gear?

[calm phoenix]

It does NOT go around

[faint flare]

Go down the stairs and jump over the rails

[calm phoenix]

can't. too high

[faint flare]

Can

[remote lintel]

go stand on the stairs and take a screenshot

[faint flare]

Jump from high onto the stairs at a angle

[calm phoenix]

My character will not jump any higher than this

[remote lintel]

no

farther down the stairs

where there are no railings

[calm phoenix]

That is ground floor

[obsidian patio]

Follow the video I posted. 🙂

[remote lintel]

^

[calm phoenix]

There is no other stairs except this one and I cannot jump the rails anywhere

[remote lintel]

look at the video

[little swift]

Follow the video posted. 🙂

[calm phoenix]

That video is for a different current

[remote lintel]

its all currents

[little swift]

The third current

It does all of them

[faint flare]

the three current

Please do pay attention

To everything people say

[calm phoenix]

He is in a completely different area. I saw him bring up a map

[faint flare]

The third current

In the video

[young fjord]

So now that I am rank 15 in bozjan the only thing to do is castrum and cluster farms?

[little swift]

Pretty much

[remote lintel]

you can jump

literally right there

[faint flare]

Timestamp 1:51

[wary swallow]

what do i do with all of the fish i catch with ocean fishing?

[remote lintel]

desynth or sell

[faint flare]

Discard

Or desynth for.some bait back

[calm phoenix]

He is modded to jump higher apparently. My character will not jump as high as he does.

[faint flare]

No

[wary swallow]

mkay

[obsidian patio]

That’s not a thing.

[remote lintel]

go to the place in my screenshot

and jump down

[faint flare]

And thats bannable anyway

[junior wind]

[faint flare]

Its called Momentum and elevation

[junior wind]

Yeah... You don't have to cheat in any way to get up there

[fiery falcon]

Is it best for white mages to use a 1-handed staff + shield or a two-handed staff?

or is it just preference?

[remote lintel]

shields arent a thing after 50

its all 2 handed

[calm phoenix]

Why didn't he just go where the screenshot was? He just glitch jumped a weird spot or something

[fiery falcon]

So it's not even worth bothering with it really? I was thinking of saving up for the invisible shield from the golden saucer but I guess that's not really worth it then (I'm lvl 45 atm)

[remote lintel]

because theres multiple ways to get there

thats just the way i used

[wary swallow]

altenatively if you can't figure it out, just have someone with a multi-seater mount taxi you there

[remote lintel]

@fiery falcon just pick whatever gives you the higher ilvl

[agile laurel]

@fiery falcon the invisible shield from gold saucer is pld anyway

[oblique trellis]

Why so many?

[remote lintel]

to make sure it goes through

[agile laurel]

to make sure it goes off

[little swift]

Alleviate queuing issues of a macro

[agile laurel]

macros are shitty

[little swift]

It still will suck

Also use <me> instead of <t> for that skill

You won't be able to cast it for bosses that are off the map otherwise

Or manual placement

[oblique trellis]

ok

[little swift]

Also put /micon at the bottom

And /merror off at the top

[oblique trellis]

alright

[lethal cape]

Uhhh

Was this supposed to happen?

[remote lintel]

[little swift]

No?

[wintry chasm]

um

[lethal cape]

Ummmm

[little swift]

Are you under the ground

[wintry chasm]

Good job

[lethal cape]

I was high in the sky on my mount

[remote lintel]

/unstuck?

[lethal cape]

And I pressed Z

[little swift]

Probably do a teleport

[lethal cape]

Lmao

[wintry chasm]

^

[little swift]

And reset yourself

[lethal cape]

It does look pretty cool xD

[wintry chasm]

I'm super impressed Lubita

[remote lintel]

you won final fantasy

[wintry chasm]

Take the pictures you want first

[lethal cape]

I was able to just fly up and get out

But still

o.o

[finite topaz]

Yep e7s, cant cast Salted Earth if its on <t>

[lethal cape]

I can't seem to be able to do it again, but yeah
Kinda weird

Is falling through the map something that you see everyday in this game?

Or was it just something super rare that just happened 😂

[finite topaz]

Nah

Never happened to me

[lethal cape]

Lmao

I think I pressed Z while I was flying, and my internet spiked so I ended up under the map xD

[gritty oracle]

On the Fandom page, it was written that Alphinaud is older and Alisaie is younger. When was this ever said? I remember Alisaie saying in post-SB that Alphinaud felt a bit like an older brother to him, but nothing more.

[finite topaz]

What has happened to me is getting stuck in some weird place and then jumping like a madman to try and get out

[wintry chasm]

Is falling through the map something that you see everyday in this game?
No

[remote lintel]

shes probably like 5 seconds older

[wintry chasm]

I've never managed it ever

[little swift]

Final fantasy fandom wiki isn't super accurate

[gritty oracle]

Ah, I see

I wondered if it was said somewhere in the Japanese version

[little swift]

That said that's definitely a question a lore mentor could better answer

[lethal cape]

Okay? I'm too far away?
I can't get closer tho

I think this is the buggiest day of my life 😂

[remote lintel]

i think she might have said it in post HW where she ||got poisoned by an arrow|| and she was like "well its my job to protect u alphy"

[little swift]

Horizontal distance is too far

Line yourself up better

[lethal cape]

I was able to click on it from the other side of the portal
I was lined up perfectly with the portal and it said it's too far away xD

[gritty oracle]

well in that case it would make more sense for Alisaie to be older.

[remote lintel]

older not by much

[little swift]

They're twins the difference wouldn't be humongous anyways

[gritty oracle]

fair enough
I was just wondering
also flavour

[leaden ginkgo]

Is "A Fashionable Friendship" the last sidequest that was added in 5.35?

Just wanted to make sure I got all the orphanage stuff done

[lethal cape]

How can I stop the "ding ding ding" sound from everytime I get those type of errors?

[little swift]

/actionerror off in chat

[lethal cape]

Phew
