strong turtle
#

yea trying that now, but are there discords or subreddits that i can use as well?

hasty musk
#

you need to get to 3.0 and unlock Ishgard

jade quartz
#

Party Finder will get you better results than those things.

#

just stick in the party finder

strong turtle

okay thanks

robust crow
#

do I need to do anything about the kettle in pyros

#

something about 2 smoldering crystals

#

i just got the pyros rod

#

or can i go straight into hydatos now

faint flare
#

The kettle is optional

robust crow
#

thank fucking god

jade quartz
#

That's for rolling random substats for your weapon

robust crow
#

i'm so sick of eureka

you don't need it if you just want the glamour

Hi I 'm new to FFXIV and wondering how exactly Materia works (especially if there's a difference on the free trial). I did the quests for Materia (both by wandering over to the Bonfire and in the MSQ) but it seems like I'll never wear a piece of gear long enough to get the Spiritbond up to 100%? Am I doing something wrong?

vapid veldt
#

generally you're only gonna wear level-cap gear long enough to get spiritbond to 100

#

it takes a pretty long time

glacial isle
#

But even then I tend to get something better immediately after. Is it only for end-game raid items or something?

faint flare
#

Spiritbond is just an extra way to get them

#

The game literally throws materia at you

glacial isle
#

It does?

faint flare
#

Yes

glacial isle
#

Where?

faint flare
#

Mainly at higher levels

hasty musk
#

you get it as quest rewards and stuff

faint flare
#

Where materia actually matters

vapid veldt
#

the materia you'd be extracting from levelling gear is pretty worthless

faint flare
#

Cause materia is negligible unless you're cap

glacial isle
#

ah

#

Thank you

#

Also, does leveling in the craft jobs ever give better stuff than what you can buy/get from quests?

#

Just want to know if my adventures in weaving are (eventually) worth it

faint flare
#

Quests give you crafted gear, eventually HQ crafred gear in heavensward

glacial isle
#

(as in: I can make a better piece of armor for say, my Thaumaturge)

faint flare
#

And crafted gear is on par with dungeons when its High quality

vapid veldt
#

it can be better than the stuff you buy from vendors

faint flare
#

Crafting is primarily for self sufficienty, self repair, self melding and making money

vapid veldt
#

but it's honestly easier to buy poetics gear

glacial isle
#

(Poetics?)

vapid veldt
#

since each set lasts 10 levels

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a way to power rank a free company?

#

we really want to reach rank 8 this weekend

open coral
#

Poetics gear refers to "level cap" gear purchased using Tomestones of Poetics - a currency you start earning in level 50 content, and can earn in any "endgame" content excluding that of the current expansion @glacial isle

glacial isle
#

ah

open coral
#

So Ironworks (50), Shire (60), and Scaevan (70) gear is collectively "poetics" gear.

glacial isle
#

currently level 28 on my main job

open coral
#

Yeah, you've got a ways to go before you can start getting poetics gear then.

glacial isle
#

Literally just joined a Grand Company yesterday

open coral
#

is there a way to power rank a free company?
@leaden ginkgo Not really. FC ranking is based on activity of members. So just... have a lot of people in your FC do any kind of content.

plain python
#

when should be a prime time of a server, based on server reset time?

open coral
#

Literally just joined a Grand Company yesterday
@glacial isle The first time you earn Tomestones of Poetics will be when you reach the level 50, 8-man MSQ instances as part of the story. Until then, your best gear will actually come from running dungeons of a level closest to your current level.

glacial isle
#

Ok

#

whenever the dungeon decides to drop relevant gear presumably, or is that just the 3 Tutorial Dungeons?

open coral
#

when should be a prime time of a server, based on server reset time?
@plain python "Prime time" for any given server is based on when the most players are likely to be active. That's usually mid-afternoon to evening regional time.

faint flare
#

Non level cap dungeons will always give you 1 guaranteed piece of gear in clearing directly into your bag

open coral
#

@glacial isle Every "leveling" dungeon you run, will not only have the random drop chance gear from chests, but will also reward you with a single piece of gear for your current class.

faint flare
#

Will never be a duplicate

glacial isle
#

Thank you

honest anvil
#

But dont worry about grinding dungeons for gears, especially at your level fwiw

open coral
#

However, you can also get a 5-piece set of gear (chest, gloves, legs, boots, and a ring) equivalent to the gear you can get for those same slots for doing the training scenarios for your role.

honest anvil
#

Your job quests at lv45 and 50 will take care of your gears before poetics

open coral
#

The ring in particular is very good because it gives +1 to all stats (and a 30% xp buff until level 30), and will pretty much last until you hit level 50 because accessories are horrendously difficult to obtain if you don't want to buy them.

glacial isle
#

Yeah I got the ring

open coral
#

Then you should also have the other four pieces of the "Brand New" set.

#

Those should last at least until the level 28 MSQ dungeon.

glacial isle
#

I think I replaced the rest with higher level gear after doing the training scenarios

errant ginkgo
#

Hi, for e7s portals, would you be able to give me a guide that states how words of motion works (not a strategy, just how the mechanic works)

open coral
#

Assuming it's the same as how it works on normal, the birds will come out of portals of the same color they go into, in the same order.

faint flare
#

The charges will always come out the colour they go into

open coral
#

So if they go into red portals first, they'll come out of red portals first.

faint flare
#

In Savage, when they dash left to right, they can go into a different colour portal

errant ginkgo
#

does the blast come from north and east?

faint flare
#

The first comes from north, the second comes from East and North

little swift
#

You only need to remember which one it went into the first time behind you and which one it goes in from sideways

#

Its always swap or stay in your current spot

faint flare
#

When the charges go across East to West, they can enter a different colour portal which will swap which portal fires first

little swift
#

And then the other one after

last seal
#

So I have a technical question. I can't always play on my pc anymore but I'd love to play on my ps4 (because I started on ps4 then swapped to pc) I've been told that accounts are shared across platforms but I don't know how to link the two accounts

faint flare
#

The raw basics of the mechanics is that the first portal that goes off is the portal the first charge hits

open coral
#

So I have a technical question. I can't always play on my pc anymore but I'd love to play on my ps4 (because I started on ps4 then swapped to pc) I've been told that accounts are shared across platforms but I don't know how to link the two accounts
@last seal You'll need to purchase the PS4 version, then simply link your PSN account to your SE account.

#

As long as your PS4 account is linked to your SE (Mogstation) account, you should be able to log in on any platform for which you own a license.

last seal
#

Thats it? Do I need to repurchase dlcs as well or just the base?

#

Because I have the base game already installed on my ps4

open coral
#

If you already have the base game on your PS4, you'll only need to purchase Shadowbringers for PS4

last seal
#

Cool, im not even up to that part in the story so this works out

open coral
#

You can always check on your Mogstation account management page to see which licenses are registered to your account.

last seal
#

Since ff14 went mostly f2p do I also need to have a subscription to have access to that content?

open coral
#

Anything with a circle under it, you own the license.

last seal
#

Or is it just shadowbringers and on?

open coral
#

If you have paid for the game at any time, you will need a sub to play.

last seal
#

Aww that sucks

signal mist
#

Random question, is there a way to track the Prey Online fate? I really want the horns but I’ve only managed to do that fate once recently after almost 5 months of constantly camping and asking at different times.

hasty musk
#

FFXIV is not F2P at all, for clarity's sake @last seal

#

The free trial is free, but you still don't own the game

#

and can't access social content unless you buy it

open coral
#

That would be a better question for #archived-lore-spoilers . People are more likely to know the answer to that kind of question there.

leaden ginkgo
#

Thank you. 🙂

This channel is really geared more towards gameplay questions.

dry jolt
#

So I hit 80 on ,y first Job (BRD), and at some point in the next week will finish the MSQ. Thinking of turning my eyes toward DoL and DoH and doing all of them together...is that plan tantamount to suicide?

remote lintel
#

no thats the ideal plan

#

you should be leveling them all together

dry jolt
#

how hard are they to level? I plan to be as self sufficient as possible and probably won't be using every trick to max every xp point.

remote lintel
#

not hard

#

just do ishgard restoration for a day

dry jolt
#

k

#

Are there any good guides out there for leveling all the dol/doh skills together?

honest anvil
#

but gist of it is level btn/ min in diadem, then use mats gathered to lv the crafters

leaden ginkgo
#

Can I do Second Coil t1 unsynced solo? Need it for WT

raw solstice
#

yeah you can solo it just fine (also for reference it's generally referred to as T6)

leaden ginkgo
#

Nice

karmic niche
#

if you are lvl 70+ yeah you can solo it

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah just did it. Rafflesia was a bad time back then

magic wren
#

What’s the macro for salted earth? Kind of sucks having aim it.

raw solstice
#

/ac "Salted Earth" <t> will place the AoE centered around your target. To mimic queueing and help with reliability, it's generally recommended to do something like

/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/micon "Salted Earth"```
with the /ac line repeated as many times as can fit in the macro
jade quartz
#
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <t>
/ac "Salted Earth" <me>
/merror off
/micon "Salted Earth"```
raw solstice
#

would recommend having a regular version of the ability and/or a version with <me> instead of <t> as well so you can either place it centered around yourself, or just manual placement, on the occasion that you cannot use it centered on the target

#

also you have to have merror at the top of the macro, specifically, for it to function

magic wren
#

This macro will act like Doton as nin?

raw solstice
#

it will act like doton with <me>

#

with <t> it'll instead be centered around your target instead of around you

magic wren
#

Ah I see

#

I’d rather do it with <t> then.

#

Thank you.

#

Actually re-reading your previous reply makes me want to do <me> for the reasons you stated.

raw solstice
#

you'll generally get most mileage out of <t> instead of <me>

#

and you'd be better off having that one, and then having a separate one for <me> or just manual placement

magic wren
#

Oh okay, I’d be best using <t> for big pulls right?

raw solstice
#

in majority of cases you'll be better off using <t>

#

since you know the target is always going to be where you want to place the AoE, while you might not be currently close enough to the target at the time you want to use the ability

magic wren
#

True true, good insight. Thank you!

Should I attempt to grind out Second Lieutenant to purchase AnimaWeapon materials, or would I be better served trying to purchase them?

remote lintel
#

up to you

forest sphinx
#

How long does Second Lietenant take? I haven't touched grand company stuff at all

gentle quarry
#

Not sure the exact time, but you need to do a bunch of Squadron missions which takes 18 hours each

#

Assume a week minimum

forest sphinx
#

Ouch

little swift
#

second lieutenant doesn't require any squadron missions

#

it just depends on how many seals you can turn in

gentle quarry
#

I thought you need the lvl 20 squadron for it

little swift
#

and completing the related bluequest

#

2nd lt is when you unlock squadrons

gentle quarry
#

I just did the lvl 40 squadron to get to First

proud willow
#

What is it you're trying to get, the stuff like Kingcake? That step?

#

those are pretty trivial to buy

forest sphinx
proud willow
#

unless prices have changed a lot, you can get all of those for under 100k

forest sphinx
#

Oh wonderful

#

The Unidentified items I've been grinding out through Beast Tribe quests and Tomestones

#

But I wanted to know if those would be equally time consuming to get

warped nest
#

Seeing that you can turn in gears for GC seals

lone spruce
forest sphinx
#

Gears?

proud willow
#

The only thing up there is the Namazu beast tribe hub

warped nest
#

That's inside a cave, iirc

#

It is not on top of the terrain

proud willow
#

starting the Namuzu quests gives you access to that aetheryte, that's the only way to get there besides flying

warped nest
#

It is a cave with a south entra ce iirc

#

Do they mean the quest or the aetheryte?

lone spruce
#

all I know is I wanna get this quest done

proud willow
#

oh the quest

raven sage
#

the quest is in a cave yeah

proud willow
#

I thought you meant the aetheryte. the quest is in the cave

raven sage
#

The down arrow tells you that you don't need to go up

lone spruce
#

Shit how did I not see that arrow

warped nest
#

Gears?
@forest sphinx once you hit a certain rank in your GC, you can trade in dungeon or raid gears for GC seals

#

I genuinely forgot which rank

#

Lieutenant?

raven sage
#

Should be 2nd lt

#

oh no it's just second class

#

sergeant

manic flare
#

how is experience in palace of the dead calculated?

#

is based on the PotD level or the character level?

leaden ginkgo
#

I believe character level

gloomy ice
#

Character level. It's like a percentage based on your current level.

leaden ginkgo
#

What are the rewards from Faux Hollows?

#

I tried looking into it but it seems like it's just level 80 rng busy work from some Reddit comments

forest sphinx
#

Im assuming that because I've never been present for the various events, the Recompense Officers will have nothing to sell me?

obsidian patio
#

@leaden ginkgo T7/8 Combat materia tokens, minion, mount, necklace glamour, and fireworks

jade quartz
#

Mount, minion, neck ribbon glamour, materia @leaden ginkgo

obsidian patio
#

@forest sphinx correct

gloomy ice
#

The tile game is for getting the currency needed for the rewards. Rewards are bought only with the leaf tokens.

forest sphinx
#

Rip

leaden ginkgo
#

One comment suggested it was all through WT gold certs as well, except the mount right?

#

And that you'd need to do like 10 weeks of unreal clears to even get the mount?

gloomy ice
#

Sounds about right. I have one clear and got only 15 leaves. Mount costs 600.

karmic niche
#

where can i find hunt train in aether?

little swift
#

you'll need way more than 10 weeks of clears

#

@karmic niche peep into #resources and join the aether hunts discord

oak smelt
#

ShB
||the journey's end gear i get in the tempest, is that specific to job or class? the sword is a dark knights sword. im assuming thats because i did the class quest as a drk? would that be pld gear if i did it as pld? and is the armour specific to each job or not? it looks kind of edgy dark knighty, is that because drk is the poster child of ShB or are there other options for pld war gnb etc?||

little swift
#

the gear you get from ||grenoldt|| is job specific gear

#

its like the coffers of artifact gear you got from your job quests at 50/60/70

oak smelt
#

so is there a way to get it for pld or once ive claimed the drk gear thats it?

little swift
#

yes go in as a paladin

#

you can also get it again if yo accidentally throw it out

oak smelt
#

oh wait i need to be 80 lol

#

aight thanks

gloomy ice
#

Completing a role quest line unlocks all sets of that role. You just need to be level 80 for each respective job to claim them.

oak smelt
#

ye thanks. i was confused then realised drk was the only one at 80

about DoL in ShB ||is there no story quest for them? ||

The facets are your class quest equilivants

#

Just like how combats had role quests

leaden ginkgo
#

how much extra exp do you get for adventurer in need?

#

is it even worth waiting for

No

Its barely anything

neon swan
#

So Lancer is starting to get boring and im on lvl 24. I have tried paladin and monk but only to lvl 15 but I'm lookin for something for fluid

faint flare
#

All jobs are gonna be Boring and slow at low levels, cause you miss 99% of their kit

#

Monk and Ninja have stuff to reduce their gcd timers (greased lightning and Huton) if you want something fast

neon swan
#

How good is ninja and monk

faint flare
#

Everything is good

#

Balance exists

#

Unlike most games

neon swan
#

Balance is important

small atlas
#

What's harder, savage or extreme?

faint flare
#

Savage

#

Some extremes, like the ones in Odd patches occasionally place around the difficulty of the 1st and second floor of savage

#

But thats fight dependant on both sides

small atlas
#

Thanks. I should of assumed from item lvl but I suppose it does vary depending on mechanics

#

Is there a chat command to leave a party

errant ginkgo
#

Hey guys, for e7s, during words of motion, on the middle two columns, how do you determine which fires what. (i know you can stand on the side and ignore it)

remote lintel
#

the color of the portals and the order the birds flew in?

rigid narwhal
#

just visually

#

you need to move

#

if it goes in red portal first, it will come out of the red first

little swift
#

The portals in the back are always in the same position too

rigid narwhal
#

its not like the game portal

errant ginkgo
#

the shots come from the south?

rigid narwhal
#

where it goes from red to blue

little swift
#

Shots come from North and go south

#

And then east to west

remote lintel
#

they spit out the birds from the south

#

because the portals are south

errant ginkgo
#

for example, start of the phase, red gets hits (blue is first safe). Then you have different (east-west) colours, the blue lane in the middle gets hit.

remote lintel
#

if red gets hit first then the red lane in the middle will spit out birds first

errant ginkgo
#

It doesn't unfortunately

faint flare
#

When they go east to west, they'll come out in order they first hit a portal. If Red was hit first previous, red will fire first. There are new portals on the west which can change the order

errant ginkgo
#

We're talking about what determines the middle column hits. @faint flare

faint flare
#

Those are the same. If red was the first portal hit, the red portal in the back fires first

#

The mechanic functions the same way regardless where the portals are

#

Whichever is hit first

#

Will fire first

errant ginkgo
#

In the video, red portal gets hit first. Yet blue portal from the south fires first.

faint flare
#

Because the charges going east to west Hit a blue portal

#

Thus resulting in blue firing

#

The same basic principle applies

errant ginkgo
#

i see. so if east - west (red to blue) then blue fires from south

#

if east -west (red to red) then red fires from south?

lapis bolt
#

Should you use tank stance outside of instances?

jade quartz
#

When you're solo it doesn't matter whether you have tank stance on or not

#

no effect

lapis bolt
#

Alright ty

manic flare
#

when do you guys use arm's length?

faint flare
#

To negate knockbacks

rigid narwhal
#

knockback

faint flare
#

Or as tank cooldown

#

On tanks

jade quartz
#

Arm's Length is a defensive cooldown for tanks

#

and negates knockback for everyone who can use it

#

this is important in several savage encounters.

manic flare
#

how do you know if an attack is knockback?

jade quartz
#

You know the fight

manic flare
#

i haven't found any use for arm's length in my boss fights

jade quartz
#

sometimes you can guess because it's got like pulsing lines or arrows coming from it

manic flare
#

maybe i'm doing it wrong

faint flare
#

More recent fights telegraph it

manic flare
#

i'm in stormblood

#

and i haven't needed to use arm's length

faint flare
#

Like the blue circle aoe

jade quartz
#

I said savage encounters.

manic flare
#

@jade quartz aren't there savage encounters in HW?

jade quartz
#

Though if you're a tank you should be using it yesterday, it's an important defensive cooldown

faint flare
#

There's not many knockbacks in normal content but there's a few here and there

jade quartz
#

Have you done them?

manic flare
#

no

jade quartz
#

Irrelevant then

remote lintel
#

sephirot has knockback attacks

faint flare
#

Basically if you get hit by an attack and are knockbacked, then you know for next time you can arm's length it 99% of the time

#

The trip mine lasers in The lv67 dungeon knockback

#

And are arm's lengthable

manic flare
#

@faint flare so in HW boss fights in the Vault, where you get knocked back?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

On the second boss you can negate his knockbacks

fast hull
#

wait you can? do yo mean the transformation knockback or the axe knockback, or when he uses the faith thing where he pushes you to the blackhole?

faint flare
#

Both

manic flare
#

on separate note, is alexandrian gear worth it?

faint flare
#

If you like the glamour

manic flare
#

specifically the weapons

#

the alexandrian weapons are way stronger than the shire weapons

#

but i don't know if you eventually get better ones in stormblood

#

since their currency is so hard to come by

faint flare
#

Not worth the effort, shire is far more easily obtainable and The alex weapons dont really last longer

#

They drop off at 65

what is the AOE combo for dark knight? similar how both paladin has a 1-2-3 or a 1-2 combo for AOE attacks, but i dont see one for DRK

hazy shadow
#

At level 70 you get boxes.

manic flare
#

@hazy shadow what do you mean boxes?

faint flare
#

Unleash > stalwart soul

hazy shadow
#

Or, what should be considered seventy.

faint flare
#

DRK is dumb cause it gets its second step at 72

hazy shadow
#

MSQ gives you chests for gear

manic flare
#

so what do i do before then?

#

for DRK

faint flare
#

Spam unleash

#

Using Flood of shadow

manic flare
#

i run out of mp quickly though

faint flare
#

And whatever other off global damage you have

hazy shadow
#

That you open and whatever class you open it on, becomes that class's gear. If that makes sense.

faint flare
#

You're not spending MP on much else until 70

manic flare
#

well, i can usually get 3-4 or floods out

#

before mp is 0

#

so dark knight's AOE damage against mobs is just lower than paladin or gunbreaker until 72?

#

when DRK learns the second AOE combo?

remote lintel
#

72

#

oh

#

its not really

manic flare
#

unless you are saying unleash is stronger than the paladin or the gunbreaker's first AOE move

faint flare
#

Floods, the permanent damage buff and the other off global damage helps out

#

Quietus

#

As well

remote lintel
#

unleash is 150 and pld's are 120

#

potency

manic flare
#

@faint flare what do you mean by the permanent damage buff?

faint flare
#

Using Flood/edge gives you darkside

manic flare
#

oh right

#

ok

remote lintel
#

all tanks do pretty much the same dmg

stray kiln
#

how many quests from the start of HW to get into Ishgard quest?

little swift
#

You're in hw if you're in ishgard

#

You're not in hw if you just beat praetorium

remote lintel
#

the very first quest brings you to ishgard

#

literally called coming to ishgard

little swift
#

You're in the post arr quests in that case

stray kiln
#

post arr quests seems right

#

havent seen coming to ishgard quest yet

little swift
#

80 quests from praetorium

#

If its lit up you can do that to it

#

Lit up fc crest means you can stamp your fc logo on it somewhere

wheat plume
#

and whats the meaning of armorie?

remote lintel
#

stores event gear and AF1 gear

little swift
#

Event gear/seasonal gear/veteran gear/achievement gear

#

Af1

#

All go in there

wheat plume
#

its like a retainer for gear?

remote lintel
#

no

#

its like a glamour dresser but more picky

wheat plume
#

ok, thxs

#

What's AF1 ?

little swift
#

Your level 45/50 job gear

#

Specifically that set not the i90 coffer stuff you get after

wheat plume
#

It has a reason for being called like that? is there a meaning in A and F?

hasty musk
#

artifact

little swift
#

Af means artifact

hasty musk
#

ArtiFact

little swift
#

Just how players reference the job gear

wheat plume
#

Oh, so the next job gear is af2 and so on?

little swift
#

You got it

#

The lv60 set would be the af2

wheat plume
#

great, thxs for the help

little swift
#

Jobs only have sets from the expansion they come out and onwards

#

So samurai would only have af 3 and af4

leaden ginkgo
#

hey guys, I'm on free trial and although the game is fun, it feels a bit lonely without the option to join guilds or message people. I got invited to a chat called ''cross-world linkshell'' and the owner said I can be invited to more than one. Is there a place where I can look for people inviting to these linkshells?

#

just want to chat while questing

faint flare
#

There's no search function for them, you usually find them by asking around for an invite to a type of linkshell

leaden ginkgo
#

all right, thanks. I'll look for people in crowded places

faint flare
#

Aka limsa

leaden ginkgo
#

I also joined a novice network. Is it a global thing or each area has its own network?

faint flare
#

Global

#

Across the entire server

leaden ginkgo
#

so I got invited in the forest city, if I go to the desert city I'll be able to chat with the same people?

#

from the server I'm in

hasty musk
#

in the novice network, yes

leaden ginkgo
#

okay, thanks

hidden lotus
#

There aren't any really small ceiling lights that can easily be hidden in something other than the main Oasis/Riviera/Glade pendant ones, right?

worthy summit
#

I think you can try taking 3 or 4 wall lamps and glitch hover them facing backwards each other

hidden lotus
#

I meant the fixture ones that can't be removed from the ceiling

#

I want to hide the one in my basement, but since we can't just have an empty slot there.. I'm forced to go to weird lengths to pretend it doesn't exist

worthy summit
#

If you don't have it selected click chandelier

modest canopy
#

Has Anyone done the ARR relic quests? I think I ran into a bug or didn't do something right? I did not get the Sphere Scroll from the NPC, and the 3 superior enchanted inks went back into my inventory..so now I can't progress.

worthy summit
#

Glade pendant light. It's tiny enough you can hide it inside wall partition@hidden lotus

#

But if you don't put interior lighting to 0 you will have a shiny wall

hidden lotus
#

I checked through those and the Glade Pendant seems like it might work

#

I just doubled up the partition

#

Which is now messing up my whole plan down there

#

I just need a Medium house 😂

#

That or to scrap my idea and go to something manageable..

worthy summit
#

Small house forces you to be more creative tho, but that's the topic for another channel

hidden lotus
#

I'm gonna go grab a Glade pendant; those can be sold by manservants, right?

worthy summit
#

I had it by default on my small house in Lavender Beds but the website only mentions it's craftable

hidden lotus
#

I got it from my manservant under Interior

#

In any case, it looks like that one is much smaller than the Oasis version and might do what I wanted!

#

I'm gonna have to mess around with it a bit more I think..

vestal needle
#

does item level syncing make your equips meaningless?

#

or does it still play a part but smaller?

proud willow
#

It reduces the equipments' stats down to what's allowed at that level. So level 60 gear will be just as strong as level 80 gear when you're synced down to 30

rigid narwhal
#

but if you're in lvl 75 gear and you go to lvl 80 content, it doesn't sync up

#

only down

remote lintel
#

except in bozja

rigid narwhal
#

bozja is the single caveat yes

hey, yesterday asked for some help but didn't have time for everything

#

so the thing is when I downloaded demo, it asked me to enter code, some guy gave me correct link to another trial on steam, but this time it said that my account can't be used on steam cuz I used trial few years back already

#

I made fresh account just for steam, and it asks code once again, and I can't use old account for trial outside of steam cuz I already used trial

#

what do I do

remote lintel
#

are you sure its the free trial steam version

why some of my gear have a red or white cross in the icon?

#

@wheat plume it means its glamoured
@remote lintel thxs, what's the difference between red and white?

remote lintel

red means no dye iirc

otherwise the cross will be the color of the dye

i might have gotten them flipped

becomes a stack of 10 approved items

alright, thanks!

If I were to buy my free trial friend FFXIV on steam, how should I go about it? Ive heard ffxiv can be a little weird with steam, and idk how I'd buy them game time

proud willow
#

buying the game is probably as simple as buying it as a gift, I think? but there's no way for you to buy time for them directly

#

you'd have to either buy an FFXIV time card, or give them a Steam gift card so they can pay their sub from their own wallet

placid stirrup
#

ohh I see, how would I get an ffxiv time card?

proud willow
#

Amazon sells them, some other places do too

#

Gotta make sure it is for the correct region though (e.g. North America)

#

It looks like the Square Enix store also sells them

wheat plume
#

How can I stop seeing glamour and see the gear with the original form?

placid stirrup
#

Ugh that's annoying, but alright thanks for the help

proud willow
#

if you want to preview it, you can Try On the item, then click Try On on the name of the item itself in your chat

#

if you want to unglamour something you're wearing, you need a Glamour Dispeller

placid stirrup
#

Actually one more question, would it be better then for me to just let my friend beat the free trial then upgrade them to the standard edition/shadowbringers just to squeeze out as much time as possible?

proud willow
#

A lot of people ride the trial until the end. It's just a matter of whether or not the restrictions are a major annoyance

placid stirrup
#

Ahh alright, thanks again for the help

remote lintel
#

you can gift it on steam

thick verge
#

Hi

#

i am a new played but would like to play ninja or samurai

#

but there are no classes for that

fresh lodge
#

Ninja starts as a rogue

twilit arch
#

rogue is the base class for ninja, but requires you to get a class to lvl 10 first and complete the lvl 10 class quest to unlock the ability to switch classes

fresh lodge
#

You can't start as that, you have to start as another class, then pick it up after completing the level 10 class quest

twilit arch
#

usual recommendation is to start as marauder or arcanist since they both start in limsa

thick verge
#

ahh

#

how do i get samurai?

twilit arch
#

Samurai has no starting class, and starts at lv50 and requires a lvl 50 job to unlock

thick verge
#

oh

twilit arch
#

also requires you to have stormblood

so there's no prerequisite class for samurai?

twilit arch

no

remote lintel

expansion jobs dont have base classes

twilit arch

none of the expansion jobs have a starting class

remote lintel

if you want to be a ninja pick a job that starts in limsa and switch to rogue at lvl 10

twilit arch
#

as they are relics of 1.0 and its been something they've wanted to do away with for sometime, but can't for the ARR jobs

thick verge
#

any recommendations on the classes?

remote lintel
#

if you want to be a ninja pick a job that starts in limsa and switch to rogue at lvl 10

#

marauder and arcanist start in limsa

thick verge

is starting in limsa good?

fresh lodge
#

Sure

remote lintel
#

it doesnt matter

fresh lodge
#

All starting cities are good

remote lintel
#

you go to all cities anyway

fresh lodge
#

But starting in Limsa means you can get Rogue quicker

remote lintel
#

if you didn't start in limsa you would have to get to lvl 15 to unlock travel to other cities

thick verge
#

Ahh

#

so i can change classes whenever i want?

#

or do i have to make new characters?

remote lintel

yes after you do the lvl 10 class quest

even after that can change infinitely to try new things?

yes

switch over to what

#

augmented neo ishgardian, or crystarium?

vestal needle
#

Ummm whatever the next step is for me i guess. Not sure what im getting next

gleaming mist

upgrading to augmented neo ish gear doesn't take many resources, so if you do that before you get full crystarium, then i would hold off on melding

#

you have a chance to lose materia when extracting (t8s) anyway

twilit arch

at the very least

if you're upgrading to crystarium, you're time-gated anyway so you could meld your current gear

you can meld t6

how does ocean fishing registration work? is there limited space or do I have to register at specific time?

#

keeps telling me registering is closed

twilit arch
#

you have 15 minutes to register for the boat. boats run every 2hrs

modern mango
#

The launcher runs on IE
@jade quartz let me give it a go

native zephyr
#

ahh, so when a trip starts you get 15mins to register and then it starts?

twilit arch
#

boats will leave once 24players have registered

#

its a 15minute window for anyone who wants to do ocean fishing, once those 15minutes up no one can register anymore and any boat that hasn't filled to max capacity will set sail

native zephyr
#

I thought you had to register and then it leaves exactly at the hour, I might have misunderstood the whole system

cursive terrace
twilit arch
#

once you register, when the boat has gotten 24 players it'll leave

#

and a new boat will start

native zephyr
#

yup, I get it now, thank you ^^

twilit arch
#

its from the kupo of fortune scratch card from the ishgard restoration, can also buy it from the marketboard @cursive terrace

cursive terrace
#

ooooh thanks

#

i reckon it has to be pretty expensive

twilit arch
#

ehh

#

it might be a bit expensive now, since participation in the restoration has waned a bit since the rankings are over

#

but you can also use world visit to server hop to try and see if other servers have it for cheaper than your own

i'll check it out, thanks

hello i got a question, i just bought the starter game and tried to register the code on my account on mog station but i get Error Code: i2501 whenever i try pressing next after the bonus items(this account doesnt have steam linked to it)
i can still play the game in the steam trial account

twilit arch
#

i2501 is a broad error, in that something is triggering their system. Some possible solutions are: try a different browser, turn off vpn if you're using one, try using mobile data. if none of those work, contact support

rustic hornet
#

is contacting support long? like a long time till i get a response?

twilit arch
#

well, live chat/phone support doesn't work weekends

#

and e-mail support can take a bit yeah

rustic hornet
#

ah damn

#

i didnt know that the chat support doesnt work today, was hoping to chat to support get help with the error and finally start from scratch with the full game

Howdy everyone, I got asked from our FC Leader to set up the Community Finder Page for FC. Unfortunately I get the message on the Lodestone Page that I'm not a Recruiter (Permissions ingame are available therefore) Is there somewhere a hidden option to put someone in charge as a Recruiter within the Lodestone? Best Regards Vali

alpine shadow
#

You did have enough permissions to the fc to do it so?

raven sage
#

There should be an option on the fc lodestone page

fallow bloom
#

as per ingame same permission as the FC leader regarding members

#

yeah we're still looking for this option with the FC Leader, right now we cant find it. Under FC -> Profile/Members theres no option to do so

verbal rune
#

What can I do with commendation stuff btw?

#

Is there a specific shop somewhere?

raven sage
#

It's right at the top of the members page. Make sure your leader is signed in @fallow bloom

eager widget
#

@verbal rune Commendations just accrue and the stuff you get from them is by having a certain amount, from the achievement milestones

#

there’s no commendation shop like there is with the achievement certificate shop

fallow bloom
#

@raven sage found it, thx 🙂

verbal rune

Got it

#

Dumb question how does one farm on fashion report?

#

🤔

#

Do you need different outfits to get 60k MGP per fashion report?

#

I tried using the same outfit and got only 60k despite scoring 100 point

glossy flare
#

It's a weekly challenge, basically

#

Each week you get new hints as to what kind of outfits will net you the maximum number of points

#

The outfit you need obviously changes each week to

#

So "farming" it can only really refer to doing it once a week

eager widget
#

once you hit that 60k prize, you’re good for the week

glossy flare
#

But it's an easy way to get a lot of mgp fast

eager widget
#

also you don’t need 100pts for it, just 80+

glossy flare
#

100 nets you a title though, if you want that

potent shale
#

Can you actually get 240k MGP in fashion report?

#

Assuming you do different outfits per try

glossy flare
#

If you do it each week for 4 weeks, sure

eager widget
#

so the way the reward works is you get 10k just for showing up

potent shale
#

If you do it each week for 4 weeks, sure
@glossy flare no I meant 240k in a week

glossy flare
#

No

potent shale
#

O h

glossy flare
#

Again, it's a weekly activity

slate arrow
#

!faq mgpguide

zinc orbitBOT
#
MGP Guide

/

eager widget
#

then it’s raised to 60k if you hit 80+ but you don’t get it per try

glossy flare
#

You can not keep farming it

potent shale
#

Rip that Fenrir mount

slate arrow
#

Since make it rain is active you do get a 50% bonus to all MGP earned outside of the challenge log

#

So you'll only need 3 weeks ish of grinding assuming you chase all the challenge log entries

potent shale
#

Ah nah

#

I'm lazy

slate arrow
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

potent shale
#

I just want those bunny outfits and miscellaneous stuff

manic flare
#

@slate arrow it's also applied to the challenge log bonus

#

the make it rain bonus

slate arrow
#

it is? huh.

manic flare
#

yea

#

it's great

potent shale
#

Want to complete my sultry dancer bunny boy outfit

glossy flare
#

None of the outfits are exclusive to the event btw

manic flare
#

and you get 95,000 MGP from doing fashion report

#

i got my fashion leader title this week

glossy flare
#

You can just do the weekly stuff each week and eventually you'll get there

manic flare
#

but u dont have to go for 100 points

#

i believe 80 points gets u the same amount of MGP

#

but im not sure

twilit arch
#

yes

glossy flare
#

Yes, 80 is enough, as was said above

twilit arch
#

you will get the same amount of mgp if you do 80pts

glossy flare
#

also the 95k mgp is with the make it rain increase

potent shale
#

When you're a dancer, there's no inbetween you gotta be sultry and sexy

twilit arch
#

without make it rain, its 10k for participation, 50k for 80+pts

eager widget
#

only thing it’s not applied to is uh, uhhhhhhh card sales I think?

#

and something else

manic flare
#

@twilit arch really? i've only gotten 55,000 MGP normally

tidal yarrow
#

any mechanic i should be aware of on shinryu domain?

manic flare
#

without the Make It Rain event

twilit arch
tidal yarrow
#

never done it but i want this doggo

slate arrow
#

just avoid the AoEs

eager widget
#

you probably had an FC buff up

slate arrow
#

oh extreme

tidal yarrow
#

yes

slate arrow
#

avoid the AoEs, but they don't have a telegraph so look around you

twilit arch
#

messed up a bit, its 60k total. 50k for 80+pts

eager widget
#

yer

tidal yarrow
#

i got told to not destroy the platform

manic flare
#

so the road to 70 buff only lasts until the server stops being preferred?

#

does anyone know when coerl will stop being preferred?

tidal yarrow
#

no idea what they're talking about but I'll see i guess

twilit arch
#

you're assured 90 days with the buff

vestal needle
#

Dungeons that dont have the item sync icon means that your equip still matter?

manic flare
#

@twilit arch does it also apply to crafters?

twilit arch
#

and no, there's no way to know if/when a server is gonna stop being preferred.

#

yes, it applies to all classes

slate arrow
#

@vestal needle it just means that item is not synced down

eager widget
#

they do @vestal needle to an extent, but it’s synced to a varying degree of balance

slate arrow
#

oh hi I'm dumb

eager widget
#

some duties have bad sync and you can crush em way too fast like Westwind

slate arrow
#

Level sync applies to everything

twilit arch
#

if a dungeon doesn't have a ilvl sync, then it syncs down to whatever is max ilvl for that level range

slate arrow
#

So if you're at 59 your gear will be synced to level 59 item level which is around 145 I want to say?

twilit arch
#

148

eager widget
#

that sounds about right for 59

slate arrow
#

It's only at level cap they apply item sync since level cap you can be anywhere from beginning to the endgame gear or further

#

150 to 270 for Heavensward

manic flare
#

wait i, so all dungeons are item level sync'ed?

slate arrow
#

yes

manic flare
#

regardless if they have the item level sync icon?

#

oh

#

so what's the difference then

slate arrow
#

wouldn't make sense for level 40 dungeons to let you go in at item level 500

jade quartz
#

The icon is for item level sync

#

not for level sync

eager widget
#

isync is mainly for cap dungeons

manic flare
#

@jade quartz i meant item level sync

eager widget
#

so you can’t enter it with end of expac gear and bumrush it

jade quartz
#

Meaning if you're the same level your item level will be synced down

#

if you're level 60 wearing i270 gear and go into a level 60 dungeon with item level sync i180

#

then your gear will be synced down

eager widget
#

a good example is that Neverreap has a sync because otherwise everyone with i260/270 gear would murder it

slate arrow
#

do note this only really applies to expansions

jade quartz
#

to equivalent of i180

slate arrow
#

ARR the sync curve is a bit higher to almost always at 120 to smooth out the endgame experience

manic flare
#

does anyone know of a good guide to leveling crafters/gatherers?

void pivot
#

how do i unlock scaevan weps ?

#

i already unlocked the area

jade quartz

I can't figure out how to do my lvl 52 white mage quest. I'm supposed to get it from Eschiva but I can't find them even though I went to where their location is supposed to be :/

eager widget
#

do you possibly already have it? if it’s not showing up on the map or under the MSQ HUD element?

fiery falcon
#

Nope I dont 😦

eager widget
#

have you done Taint Misbehaving in South Shroud yet? that’s the requirement to have the 52 quest appear

sour crag
#

nvm

mellow dirge
#

Does attack potency scale linearly?

slate arrow
#

for the most part, yes

mellow dirge
#

What are the exceptions?

#

Or is it just not perfectly linear

fiery falcon
#

@eager widget Yeah I can't even talk to the original quest giver anymore

#

that lady

glossy flare
#

what's your current MSQ?

fiery falcon
#

How do I know if I've unlocked ishgard?

#

uhh

#

An uninvited ascian

glossy flare
#

Yeah, you're not into Heavensward yet

slate arrow
#

you'll know it when it happens

glossy flare
#

The expansions job quests require you to have started that expansion

hoary elk
#

How does it work with leveling using hunting log?

glossy flare
#

So to start your lvl 52 job quest you gotta keep doing the story

verbal rune
#

Do you get a a mount from the yokai event? What is it then?

hoary elk
#

Do I just follow the one doing hunting log while NOT being in the party?

fiery falcon
#

Huh, so I can't do my low level white mage quests even if I'm like lvl 57 now? Because I have to advance in the main quest line?

glossy flare
#

press H (by default) to open your hunting log

fiery falcon
#

Ahh

glossy flare
#

Then check what you need to kill and just... kill it

#

each entry rewards you some xp and each completed category has some bonus xp

hoary elk
#

Can we be in a party is my question

glossy flare
#

sure, as long as you do the pulls

hoary elk
#

Ah alright, thank you

wary swallow
#

is it better to use versatile lures for ocean fishing if you're levelling or is it the same as just using the "correct" bait?

glossy flare
#

Huh, so I can't do my low level white mage quests even if I'm like lvl 57 now? Because I have to advance in the main quest line?
@fiery falcon Pretty much, yes

manic flare
#

which is harder to level? gatherer classes or crafters?

honest anvil
#

gatherers with diadem is more brainless ig

wary swallow
#

or fisher with ocean fishing

#

P:

manic flare
#

is better to level gatherer classes before crafters?

honest anvil
#

but neither is really hard with ishgard stuff and leves

manic flare
#

@honest anvil what do you mean by ishgard stuff

gloomy ice
#

Both are much faster to level these days when using the proper outlets. Diadem gathering is mindless but good. Ocean fishing is great. Ishgard Restoration for crafting classes. Makes it relatively painless. Just a little turn-off-brain-y

honest anvil
#

ishgard restoration

there’s diadem for leveling gatherers. Then you use mats gathered there to level up crafters

gloomy ice
#

And yeah it’s a little easier to keep gatherers ahead of crafters so you can get the materials you need on level.

honest anvil
#

Fisher has ocean fishing to level like someone else said

manic flare
#

@honest anvil where do you find the diadem?

honest anvil
#

in ishgard, look for a blue quest called toward the firmament iirc; then do some small dialogue stuff to unlock firmament

#

diadem is in there

gloomy ice
#

They probably won’t go down but there will be a login queue. How long depends on the server.

gleaming mist
#

they have large queues for around the few hours or so after servers come up

#

unless there's a ddos, there probably won't be issues with playing the game

tidal yarrow
#

it wouldn't let me join a party. one player per job but there's no sam. i match the ilv and everything. why?

#

it's under practice so not even duty requirements

cold cove
#

I bought the started edition with Heavensward and I mainly did the MSQ. Im at the start of Heavensward and I cannot level further. Should I buy the next expansion or should I focus on doing the MSQ and leveling other classes until I finish it?

vapid magnet
#

it’s up to you tbh, if you wanna continue levelling your whm then buy the next exp

#

but if you wanna try another class it’s a great time

eager widget
#

if you’re having fun, I don’t see why not. If you finish the entirety of HW with your current level, you’ll hit stormblood the way everyone did day 1 which is namazuconcern

Like Rox said, if you don’t buy the rest of the game, just level something else

vapid magnet
#

it’s good to have another class levelled because you’ll hit 80 before you finish the entire story lol

#

i just finished sb and almost have my 2nd lvl 80 lol

cold cove
#

Thank you, I gonna do some leveling on other classes and do some side things in the meantime.

vapid magnet

have fun !!
