Do the Durability Draught and pots conflict? Is the durability draught useful while doing endgame stuff?

Is Dancer a difficult job?

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

No

#

The easiest job

fringe whale Oct 29, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

I was told the same thing about red mage haha

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

Dancer is pretty brainless

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

Red mage is straightforward

#

Dancer is Press glowy button

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 2:49 PM

#

Half of dnc is related to procs

#

If it glows, press it

#

All the ranged physical dps are pretty easy

modest lotus Oct 29, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

how about scholar ?

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

Sch is on the harder level

#

Compared to other healers

robust notch Oct 29, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

Eeh

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

It relies on you predicting dmg before it happens

robust notch Oct 29, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

I find Scholar to be pretty braindead during pulls

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

Scholar is all about resource management

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

Its not on the same level of easy as whm

robust notch Oct 29, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

Target the tank, spam Art of War, use oGCD heals when you have to

#

Boom, you've learned Scholar during pulls in dungeons

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 2:52 PM

#

That's hard for alot people

#

Esp if they came from only whm

#

Anything is easy so long as you actually try to learn it

#

None of classes in ff14 are hard

agile laurel Oct 29, 2020, 3:00 PM

#

scholar is proactive rather than reactive

#

reactive sch will get you a lot more awkward situations than whm

#

simply because it doesn't have as much resource to play with

#

however due to the sheer amount of its kit being oGCD it's one of the simplest healers to get high dps uptime on

Hi guys, what does it mean when a gear piece has a blue X on it?

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 3:14 PM

#

can i buy the stormblood dlc on mogstation

hasty musk Oct 29, 2020, 3:16 PM

#

you can't buy stormblood by itself

raven sage Oct 29, 2020, 3:16 PM

#

You don't buy expansions on the mogstation. You would have to go to the store for the platform you own the game on

#

And you would need to buy shadowbringers now instead since it comes with stormblood

karmic veldt Oct 29, 2020, 3:17 PM

#

Blue X, I believe, is usable by you but not on the job you're currently playing.

#

For example, if you have Dark Knight at 80 but you're playing White Mage, then tanking gear will show up with a blue X.

#

As opposed to a red X which indicates you can't currently equip it on any job or on your current gender.

austere vale Oct 29, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

@karmic veldt Thanks Spooky. Any idea why I am unable to trade these blue X items to the Grand Company?

karmic veldt Oct 29, 2020, 3:19 PM

#

Depends on what kind of items they are.

#

If they're starter or artifact gear, you won't be able to trade those.

#

Because you can repurchase those at the Calamity Salvager.

austere vale Oct 29, 2020, 3:20 PM

#

@karmic veldt Should I instead just trade them to a merchant then to get at least something for them?

karmic veldt Oct 29, 2020, 3:20 PM

#

Perhaps, or if you like the look I'd recommend storing them in your glamour dresser.

#

Depending on what kind of items they are, you might even store them in the wardrobe in your inn room.

#

But that's because I always try to have a few glamours on my characters, so if you're not into that you can always sell or, if the merchant won't take them, discard them.

austere vale Oct 29, 2020, 3:22 PM

#

I appreciate the response 🙂 @karmic veldt

@elder sinew pomanders are obtained within potd

#

the only pots you can buy are ones that give you a regen effect, for potsherds outside the queue up point

#

iirc.

open rivet Oct 29, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

so, pretty sure it's not the right place, but,
why do people tank phlegetron in labyrinth of the ancients in the center of the arena,
instead of closer to the "start" of the arena (usually Point B)?
It can't be walking duration for the players, since both points are the same distance (A/C aren't at the centerpoints of the circle, but closer to B).
When he's in the center, he instantly starts his castbar for ancient flare, while he has to walk when at the other point.
the walking would give him a clear tell that he's about to cast ancient flare, giving people more time to react.

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

I mean it doesn't matter where you tank it. Just run back to pads during ancient flare

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

you have plenty of time to react to ancient flare

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

Yeah

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

that it ultimately doesn't matter.

open rivet Oct 29, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

I've seen people wipe often enough on it

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

that is far more likely greed

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

I have as well but you should be paying attention to the enemy cast bar, not whether or not he moved to the center

#

If people are wiping on it then they're not running back to the pad

#

Which is extremely common

#

Ideally, people tank it near marker B but it seriously doesn't matter at all

open rivet Oct 29, 2020, 4:16 PM

Are the US servers as populated as EU servers?

cosmic pilot Oct 29, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

Iirc there’s a shortcut to enlarge an active window on PS4. Without the need to go to settings. Anyone knows?

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

Yes

#

R3 on the active window

cosmic pilot Oct 29, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

Thanks!

#

How to decrease it’s size/scaling?

#

And can we enlarge skills information window?

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

Are the US servers as populated as EU servers?
@fiery falcon

To my knowledge they are

#

EU does have 2 less servers than NA tho (and anorher DC)

#

An EU player may have a better answer an i do

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

I'm an EU player but my two American friends are going to try out the game. And we're kinda unsure if they should stick to NA servers or come to my server

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

They can most def play on EU with no problem

#

But playing in the evenings may be better for them if they intend to play on EU

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

afaik the NA servers have a higher absolute population (which is kind of easy with one more data center)

#

But EU has a higher density, though both are fine obviously

#

Player numbers really aren't an issue for this game

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

Yeah

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

Alright thank you so much 😄

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

~~i forgot eu had only 2 DCs I had to fix my answer whoops~~

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 4:31 PM

#

@fiery falcon US servers are more populated than EU

#

well actually

#

they're around equal

#

but i see more endgame content on na servers

#

otherwise they're more or less equally populated

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:43 PM

#

How do you set up your chocobro ?

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Set up?

#

Do you mean summon your chocobo

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Yes, Free, attack, tanking, heal, follow

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Oh they'll attack whatever your attacking

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Mine is low level but i have 2 skills on attack and 1 on healing

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

When they rank up then they'll do whatever skills you give them

#

Idk much about how to set up the "perfect chocobo" tho

#

I just know that it'll do whatever skills you have it for and it'll attack whatever your attacking regardless

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

In any setups ?

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

I don't wanna give you a bad example because I know very little on chocobo set ups but most of the mentors should know more than I do

#

I have my chocobo set up as a healer but yet again I do not use it often

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

generally the recommended tree is healer, as its by far the most useful

patent citrus Oct 29, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

yeh, just healer lv 10

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

that said, you could do up to choco regen and then into attack, or go to choco cure and hten attack

#

but for the most part, putting everything into healer is the safest choice

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

I unlocked choco regen and then i went on attack

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

as for the stances, its best to just leave it in free stance

zealous flower Oct 29, 2020, 4:51 PM

#

i started mine out as a tank because i was a healer myself

brave ravine Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

is there a name given for the period of time that you're unable to activate multiple oGCD abilities ?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

tank 'bo isn't very useful because even as a healer you can pretty easily rip aggro off of them

patent citrus Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

clipping? 🤔

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

I'm leveling up a tank atm so i thought i would need more dps since i can heal with one of my skills

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

clipping refers to clipping your gcd though

stark sleet Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

What's an example of a period like that?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

having healer skills on the chocobo means its can do some what decent healing while you focus on dpsing

patent citrus Oct 29, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

ooo

#

i thought all kind of stuck is clipping

brave ravine Oct 29, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

on DRG, abilities like Lance Charge, Dragon Sight, Battle Litany, etc. they cannot be activated at the same time even though they're all oGCDs

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

all skills have an animation delay

brave ravine Oct 29, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

practically any job w/ multiple oGCDs has the null time

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

That's just the inherent animation delay

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

which is why you generally can't weave more than 2 skills per weave window

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 4:54 PM

#

There's next to no animation cancelling

#

In this game

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

DRG does suffer a bit more from that than other jobs actually, at least with some skills

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

yeah, can't double weave with jumps

brave ravine Oct 29, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

is there an exact amount of time for this animation delay, based on data mining or something? or is it all different because they're all different animations?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

since those have a fairly length animation

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

the delay depends on the animation

#

So it's hard to say, but also not necessary

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

The healing of the chocobo is 20 per 20 for me

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

You can either weave one skill between GCDs or two

#

categorizing them like that is enough

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

Its about 0.7 seconds on regular abilities and ogcds

#

Jumps are just shy of double that

lavish vortex Oct 29, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

question, there is a ring from bozjan southern front that gives you 10% exp to level characters outside the front?

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

Its an earring iirc

#

From 1k appraisals of the lost action fragments

lavish vortex Oct 29, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

thanks!, where do i find the challenge?

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

Its under achievements

#

Bozja has its own tab in battle

lavish vortex Oct 29, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

thanks!

jade thorn Oct 29, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

Are there any consequences for picking easy mode in a story mode duty?

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

nope, never

jade thorn Oct 29, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

Wow

#

I’d expect there to be like less exp or something

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

It just buffs your dmg and health regen

#

That's all

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 5:09 PM

That makes sence

#

Doesn't make you a good or a bad player if you pick easy

#

Because I know I did sometimes lol

stark sleet Oct 29, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

Sometimes the difficulty is "wow I hope this NPC doesn't stand in too many orange puddles and dies", and it's nice to not have to go through that more than once

jade thorn Oct 29, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

Also if I upgrade my classes too early will I miss tequniques like in Pokémon

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

No

jade thorn Oct 29, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

that’s good cuz I’m on my last gladiator mission

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

Each level in your base class results in a level in the advanced job

#

or vice versa, however you wanna view it

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

You not upgrading your classes is a detriment to your party

#

Because you won't learn important skills

jade thorn Oct 29, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

dreamy warren Oct 29, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

I know this isnt necessarily FFXIV related but what are 2 redundant letters in the english alphabet? C is because we have K and S. Is there another?

open coral Oct 29, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

Y could be called redundant, since i exists.

#

Why would you ask that question here, though?

dreamy warren Oct 29, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

It's a really circular thought pattern. The link above to Aliapoh's journal combos reminded me of cyphers that can be used in cryptography for D&D. And so then I got to think about how there are only 24 of them, but 26 letters so what letters are redundant.

open coral Oct 29, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

C, J, and Y could all be considered redundant.

#

But C and J are probably the ones that are left out.

Probably too specific a question, but any advice on how to stairstep my way from full HQ facet (not overmelded) up to HQ Aesthete? I guess I'll probably just need to make some non HQ aesthete to get my stats where they're needed

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

Jus buy some aesthete pieces imo

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

Aesthetr has more of all stats

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

They are not expensive expensive atm if you server hop

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

You just cant pentameld@autumn oriole

storm stone Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

What should i do with all these materials and weapons i get from farming mount in extrem on ARR primals ?

gritty oracle Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

won't skysteel tools eventually become better than aesthete tho?

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

If they add another step yes @gritty oracle

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

i got credits

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

I’m comparing relic with melded aesthete(the high control version)

gritty oracle Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

thanks!

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

Ofc pentamelded is better

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

And it has about 30 less control and 20+ more craftsmanship

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

Yeah that's obvious if you're putting melds in

silk summit Oct 29, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

Is there like, a list of the general consensus on the best melds for it? I wanna see if these overmelded pices on the MB are properly done

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

But on their own a budget melded aesthete is less good than a skysung

#

Depends on what breakpoints you're after @silk summit. #doh-dol-lounge has pins that link to balance suggested melds

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

Yeah if you want to use aesthetes over relic, better meld it with the best melds possible

silk summit Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

Great, thanks

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

I personally skipped aesthetes main tools since relics are more futureproof

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 6:35 PM

Can you leave a guild/company if it turns out it's not your cup of tea anyways?

#

is there a penalty?

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:36 PM

ok

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 6:36 PM

there's no penalty in leaving a free company

You also need to finish the MSQ called "Sylph Management"

#

If you haven't just keep doing the msq

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

cerberus what do you mean 79 quests

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

you have 79 quests to go

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

no

#

i shouldnt have 79 quests left

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

the price of principles is the first quest after ultima weapon

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

thats stupid

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

After the main base story of every expansion

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

i want dark knight class already

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

There's a bunch of post patch quests

#

Arr has 80 quests

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

they said they removed a bunch of stuff

radiant summit Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

so I've seen there's bonus windows for the light step of the zodiac weapons

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

they did

#

it used to be 100 quests

radiant summit Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

where do I see what they are?

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

They removed stuff but its still long

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

Yeah they pruned down the whole 2.0 to 2.55

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

no

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

ARR is still longer than any other expansion

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

let me start heavenward now

#

so i can get dark knight

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

i am party sure its not freaking 79 more quests

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

It is

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

unless you spend money for a story skip

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

at that point it's kind of a waste

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

true

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

it's like 2 days worth of playing

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

If story matters to you at all you should play through it

#

Otherwise its up to you

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

This isn't the channel to complain ya know

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

Alternatively you could have bought a dark knight job skip

#

And had it right away

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

how do i do that

#

i want dark knight

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

Pay $25 on the online store

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

i only have 16 dollars

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

do the story

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

tough shit

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

Nothing we can do other than kinda deal with it and play the story

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

also I wouldn't buy dark knight job skip

#

because the class story is the best

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

I mean if someone isn't willing to stay for 79 more quests then idk if they would be willing to actually read the story

#

For drk

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 7:09 PM

Something about being able to lock in new chemistry traits if you want

Click the skill in the skill sequence to remove it

do both players need to be present for a marriage to successfully happen?

#

idr how to do that

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

yes, both players need to be there for the wedding ceremony

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

You can use the new chemistry to replace their current ones now. But you can also commence a mission and lose the new chemistry if it’s not assigned

radiant summit Oct 29, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

what's the fastest way to get my zodiac light level up?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

tam tara normal or ifrit normal are the usual suspects

#

ifrit if you have fast loading times, tam tara if not

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

If the new chemistry is better than the old one, replace the old one now. Otherwise skip the new chemistry

radiant summit Oct 29, 2020, 7:12 PM

#

I read somewhere that ifrit normal gives you next to nothing

#

is it still worth it?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 7:12 PM

#

tam tara and ifrit both give rather low amount, but you can do both quite quickly

#

so they make up for the low amount of light in the fact that you can do several runs in a short time frame

#

like ifrit dies in a few seconds

Are glamour plates just so that you can change looks without having to go back to the inn?

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

without having to spend glamour prisms

#

and yes

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

Saving them into whole sets saves you time from clicking and applying each item

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

I'm pretty sure I got one from a quest a while back (lvl 53 now) but.. I'm not sure how to find it?

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

And doing multiple thingd at once, and having different glamours for each job

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

Should it be in my normal inventory?

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

glamour plates?

autumn oriole Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

And they also remain their dyes in the plate even if you dye the items to other colors later

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

ah so like, if I want to have my normal glamour set and my bikini set to switch between I'd need two plates?

#

yeah

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

yes

#

glamour plates are on the character window

#

next to gear sets

karmic niche Oct 29, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

Remember to link the glamour to your class

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

ooh ok thanks!

#

also, does anyone know where that place is where there's loads of water "ponds" where the girls are bathing / sitting in it?

I can't seem to find it 😩

sounds like either southern thanalan at the forgotten springs, or upper la noscea at camp bronze lake

fiery falcon Oct 29, 2020, 7:39 PM

noo but it was kind of like hot springs area if that makes sense

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 7:39 PM

that U tribe place in thanalan?

I'm not sure how many girls are in the Kugane hot springs

literally nothing lol

it gets so good

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 8:07 PM

this is a story based game

#

it will be dialogue heavy

Oh cool, so the lore is worth it.. That's better than skipping for me

last tapir Oct 29, 2020, 8:07 PM

can you augment lvl 80 class gear?

robust crow Oct 29, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

story is a huge part of the game

#

everything is locked behind the story

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

its a final fantasy game of course the story is good

polar hound Oct 29, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

final fantasy title first, mmo second

robust crow Oct 29, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

do you mean the 430 gear you get for free at the end of ShB? @last tapir

last tapir Oct 29, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

yea

robust crow Oct 29, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

you can't augment that gear, but there is an EX trial that drops a 480 version of your class gear

#

no one really does that trial anymore though since 480 is easy to get elsewhere

#

Its the ex you unlock from doing your shb relic weapon quest

polar hound Oct 29, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

@normal adder just as a heads up, A realm reborn (base game) is pretty long because they needed a full game to continue dev/funding etc. so it's a LOT of story/character/world building at the start...action starts picking up towards the end of arr and into HW but it's still enjoyable for the first time

#

but if you like lore, this game is chock-full of it..they also have 2 lorebooks out

little swift Oct 29, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

Most of thw lore doesn't need external sources to fully grasp

#

But are good additions for interest

#

This is unlike say, Star Wars

I have scattered friends on all 3 DCs. So I dont like neglecting them. I also like being accessible on all 3 DCs

Ah, well do you lose much if you transfer

#

I guess I need to look up what gets left if you transfer

open ember Oct 29, 2020, 8:20 PM

Hi o/

How do I get gil? 🤔
I have a level 80 WHM and now I'm leveling a BLM, but I don't have gil to buy gear every ~10 levels 😅

slate arrow Oct 29, 2020, 8:47 PM

#

@lethal cape use Poetics

#

below level 50, use dungeon gear

lethal cape Oct 29, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

I had around ~1 mil gil, although I never realized that it goes away so fast and now I'm left with 60k lmao

#

I think I bought food

#

Poetics?

You can buy gear with Poetics

@lethal cape you don't :d
I... Don't make gil?

slate arrow Oct 29, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

gil is virtually worthless as a resource since it's only use is to skip the grind

#

everything you can get without needing gil

lethal cape Oct 29, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

O

#

Fair enough o.o

slate arrow Oct 29, 2020, 8:51 PM

#

And on top of gil being worthless, it's almost impossible to get large amounts of now without the marketboard, since the Collectible rework.

#

The fastest way to make gil is to do stuff like the Domain Restoration and also doing Adventurer In Need roulettes

Is frontline or Normal roulette any good for xp at lvl 69+?

#

Or just stick to trials/leveling/567/alliance/msq

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 8:58 PM

50-70 roulette is not good for exp

#

frontline is pretty decent exp tho, normal raids is ok but not amazing. usually its quick enough tho

Ah, thought frontline was just pvp xp

#

Yea it only shows the red xp icon

nope, it gives normal exp as well. better exp given when you win

How should I go about getting the basic ilvl requirement for completing the Role quests in ShB? Can I just buy a cheap set of lvl 80 gear or something?

Ofc I'm.not double weaving

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 9:16 PM

Dungeon and story gear should be enough for role quests

#

They're not that demanding

robust notch Oct 29, 2020, 9:17 PM

If you're not double weaving, and you're sure that you're only doing 4 Heat Blasts, then it's either your ping, the game is broken, or you suck at counting.

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 9:17 PM

Cause they give you access to the i430 gear

last kayak Oct 29, 2020, 9:17 PM

I've finished the main story, but I think I got gear for other roles. My ilvl as an MCH80 is only 368. Which is clearly not enough to finish this quest as I just found out.

Sounds to me like he needs to buy Neo-Ishgardian or something like that

He's 421.

And farming Eden's Gate is a massive waste of time.

He'll farm for a few hours for gear that's pretty much useless anyways

its a little spotty in the dialogue if I recall but the compass is hyper important

Back then you needed an additional quest to unlock flight for the company chocobo

wintry chasm Oct 29, 2020, 10:41 PM

Basically you use the compass in an area and it'll tell you general distance and direction to the nearest aether current

stark yew Oct 29, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

and is wise to have on an easily reachable hotbar if possible because you are almost certain to be hitting it aplenty to find the currents

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 10:42 PM

#

You have obtained a black chocobo! When riding this mount, you will have the ability to fly, provided certain conditions have been met.
To fly in a given region, you must first find and attune to all the local aether currents.
In order to attune to some aether currents, you will need to complete certain quests. However, most can be discovered via exploration.
To aid you in this endeavor, you have also obtained an aether compass, which will provide you with both the bearing and the distance to the nearest aether current upon use.
Should you lose this compass, you may speak with Gibrillont at the Forgotten Knight to obtain another.
To review your progress, select Travel from the main menu, followed by Aether Currents. ```

it was in a system info box that pops up after you finish the msq that gives you the black chocobo

LOL, with my first aether current, it showed an indication/tutorial to how to get more of them, but it only lasted 2 seconds and then disappeared.

Thanxs guys for the advises

#

Silly question but how do I start the bozjan southern front quest?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 10:50 PM

#

"Where Eagles Nest" is the unlock quest, however it requires you to have completed the main scenario quest "Vows of Virtue, Deeds of Cruelty" before you can pick it up in Gangos

ebon willow Oct 29, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

What dungeons are those? Stormblood?

glossy flare Oct 29, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

None of that is a dungeon

obsidian patio Oct 29, 2020, 10:52 PM

#

Vows of Virtue is after the MSQ dungeon Anamnesis Anyder

#

So if you don’t have that unlocked you need to do more story

ebon willow Oct 29, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

Then I did it since I finished all the expansion

Im new, and picked Thaumaturge going for BLM. Im level 20, and doing all quests in the maps beore i jump on an air ship. Im doing thaumatarge mage guid quests, but I see a blue quest with a + next to it for pugilist. Should i do those quests too?

obsidian patio Oct 29, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

Only if you want to

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

Then the unlock quest should be in Gangos from Marsak

obsidian patio Oct 29, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

Other classes are completely optional to unlock

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 10:53 PM

#

Those unlock other jobs

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 10:53 PM

~~also vows is 5.1, anamnesis is 5.2~~

@obsidian patio @faint flare ok, so I can safely ignore for now since im just starting and focusing on 1 job? (BLM is the job right?

Where is gangos at again?

Okay Thanks.

#

So I bought The Far Edge of Fate Soundtrack for my girlfriend for her birthday. (She has always wanted the Nidhogg minion) I bought it from the official NA site and it just arrived. I opened it and outside of a bit of the packaging it is all in Japanese. I looked at the product and it mentions nothing of the minion code that I can tell. Did they send me the right product and does it still come with the code for the Nidhogg minion? The NA site has a confusing line on it mentioning something about first print

#

(I also don't want to open it for two reasons. One being if they sent me the wrong item I can get it replaced, and two being I want her to open it)

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:09 PM

#

it should have the minion code, afaik

foggy flame Oct 29, 2020, 11:09 PM

#

Is it normal for it to be in all JP?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:09 PM

#

yes, its an imported JP cd

foggy flame Oct 29, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

Will the code still work then for an NA account?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

yes, the code isn't region locked at all

There’s no # for 100% HQ from quicksynth

slate arrow Oct 29, 2020, 11:12 PM

quick synth after the rework is completely random and it's basically only based on if you're using HQ materials or not

you're getting the reward of the roulette PLUS what the dungeon gives

obsidian patio Oct 29, 2020, 11:16 PM

It’s good for phantasmagoria

lavish vortex Oct 29, 2020, 11:16 PM

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:16 PM

Yes

#

so like for instance expert roulette is 90 allegory total

lavish vortex Oct 29, 2020, 11:16 PM

#

So if the dungeon I’m thrown at gives 50 allegory tomestones, I get 90 in total?

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:16 PM

50 from dungeon, 40 from roulette

lavish vortex Oct 29, 2020, 11:16 PM

Will I miss out on certain levels of levequests if I skip some? Like will I be able to go straight to level 20 quests if I have only completed level 10?

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

yes you can

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

yes, what matters is whether you have the appropriate levemete unlocked

#

since each levemete is a different level range

#

that said you do need to do the initial leve quest unlock

#

which is at the adventurer's guild of your starting city

Only if you transfer from Congested to preferred

proven sparrow Oct 29, 2020, 11:21 PM

is congested just anything with closed character creation?>

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:21 PM

No

congested worlds are completely locked to both character creation and world transfers

proven sparrow Oct 29, 2020, 11:22 PM

ah alright

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 11:22 PM

And it stays locked until SE changes it

twilit arch Oct 29, 2020, 11:22 PM

worlds that are currently locked to character creation, and not listed as congested on the world status page, are temporarily so

and the lock is lifted whenever enough people log off

Prior to Demis you only havr your filler phase

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 11:44 PM

You unlock them by doing the quest in the waking sands "a Recurring problem"

180 days is 77.94$ total

#

At 52

agile laurel Oct 29, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

aetherflow is an odd exception as it's tracked as a gauge AND a buff effect

#

so the buff only displays what your gauge does

mellow dirge Oct 29, 2020, 11:54 PM

#

seems kind of elaborate for a resource that only 2 abilities use

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

Its the same for scholars aetherflow so just consistency i guess

agile laurel Oct 29, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

plus aetherflow used to require a little more tracking

faint flare Oct 29, 2020, 11:55 PM

i'd have to go for a broadly on different terms

remote lintel Oct 29, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

each expansion adds like 130 ilvls

leaden ginkgo Oct 29, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

It's linear

#

They don't multiply with levels, which means devs acutally test the numbers

agile laurel Oct 29, 2020, 11:59 PM

ff is helped by no borrowed power mechs so progression is much more predictable

whats the use in Shuriken Ninjitsu if you have Raiton?

slate arrow Oct 30, 2020, 12:55 AM

#

!action Ten Chi Jin

zinc orbitBOT Oct 30, 2020, 12:55 AM

#

**Ten Chi Jin** : lvl 70 NIN (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Temporarily converts each of the three mudra into a ninjutsu action. Executing one of these actions will convert the remaining mudra into different ninjutsu actions until all three have been executed or the Ten Chi Jin effect expires.
Duration: 6s
Only ninjutsu available while active. The same ninjutsu cannot be executed twice.
Cannot be executed while under the effect of Kassatsu. Effect ends upon moving.

You don't really use Fuma Shuriken just on its own once you have access to Raiton/Katon.

#

Ten-Chi-Jin is pretty much the only time you'll ever end up using it.

i see, thanks

Oh nice

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

Hello again. So what exactly do people mean as a red mage by "weaving"?

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

Using off globals after the dualcasted spell

#

!faq weaving

zinc orbitBOT Oct 30, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

Quick guide to weaving/clipping

Click the image, then 'Open original'

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

Its a core skill

#

To learn

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

Tyvm for telling me that

#

I wasnt sure what people were talking about

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

I wouldn't call it a skill so much as a meta technique.

#

It is incredibly useful to know how to utilize it though.

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

Yeah ill have to watch a video and see somoen actually doing it

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

Slidecasting is another useful meta technique.

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

Ive never heard of that one

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

Example of weaving

Dualcasted thunder/aero > Weave Fleche and Contre

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

Slidecasting basically is a way to take advantage of server ticks to move before your cast bar finishes..

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

You can use off global abilities while waiting for the global cooldown to come back

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

Oh so basically the stuff that I'm supposed to use whenever it's up I use it right after doing my main combo stuff in between so that it doesn't interrupt the flow basically right?

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

You appear locked in the animation for the cast, even as you move. Thus the name "slide cast"

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

You use your off globals on cooldown after a dualcasted spell

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

^

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

If you try to use it without a instant cast spell, you clip and delay your next GCD

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Oh i gotcha

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

So going Jolt > Acceleration will clip you

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

Weaving is pretty simple once you understand the theory behind maximizing your rotation.

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

As you delay the GCD

#

Due to animation lock

#

And clipping is VERY bad

fervent anvil Oct 30, 2020, 1:13 AM

#

Thx for the info guys this is really helpful to know

lone nacelle Oct 30, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

is there any difference visually between normal and hq crafted weapons/glams?

faint flare Oct 30, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

No

agile laurel Oct 30, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

rdm is really a crash course in weaving due to the nature of dualcast

open coral Oct 30, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

Yeah, RDM is like the weaving class. I don't think even MCH has more weaves, and they've got a lot too.
