leaden ginkgo
was planning to get a sub tomorrow, but suddenly i clicked login and play and i was baffled
Also im in Mor Dhana and before i remember i could not fly there, now i can fly ?
outer plank
in 5.3, aka this patch
they made flying in arr zones a thing
after finishing castrum
open coral
As long as you've completed the MSQ "The Ultimate Weapon" you can fly in all ARR zones now.
leaden ginkgo
Ahh ok im at " Still Waters" i got a prompt to abondon and take the quest again too
that there were some changes
to the quest
open coral
Yes, they removed and adjusted a LOT of quests in the ARR and post-ARR questlines.
So now it's a lot more streamlined.
leaden ginkgo
That sounds amazing, will check out how the stuff goes in this free login campaign
open coral
Also of note, the Crystal Tower raid is now required content before reaching the Shadowbringers expansion content. For new players there's a specific wall in the MSQ where you can't progress, but for older players it will simply prompt you to complete the raid series (if you haven't done so) before allowing you to pick up the quest to begin ShB.
leaden ginkgo
No idea what either of those are, but i stopped playing before this changes so i guess i will eventually hit the wall ?
little swift
Yes
open ember
It'll stop you before you can do anything else to go finish those raids
Or any other msq changes they made
leaden ginkgo
All right thanks a lot for all the info !
open coral
It will specifically tell you "you cannot progress in the main story until you have completed this specific series of quests"
And that series of quests relates to unlocking the Crystal Tower (Labyrinth of the Ancients, Syrcus Tower, World of Darkness) Alliance raids.

cedar compass
Is it normal that sirensong sea gives me more exp than violet tides?
crimson wind
It doesn't
zinc orbitBOT
open coral
Did you... maybe complete a weekly challenge (5 commendations or 5 dungeons) when you ran Sirensong?
That's the only thing I could think of that would make a lower level instance apparently award more xp than a higher level one.
halcyon glen
Or, potentially, you had Rested for Sirensomg
And we’re getting 150% exp
Whereas you had used it all by Shisui
@cedar compass
gritty oracle
Is it true that Goblin, Diabolos and Malboro are having Ishgard fates every 8 hours nonstop?
raven sage
I doubt they were having them nonstop but they did hit the final section of restoration for this period which gives you a few fates back to back until they're done
faint flare
There was a screenshot of Malboro close to failing a fate so
I dont think its known what happens if one fails
raven sage
If the fates fail it just resets and you have to do that one again
The have to be properly completed
verbal rune
For detonator skill from MCH, do I use it, then overheat and spam heat blast and gauss blast?
faint flare
For wildfire you use 5 heat blasts + 1 gcd
Naturally weave Gauss and richo so you dont overcap charges on those
verbal rune
Okay
green grail
you can use wildfire after one heatblast too, it should still get the full value unless you have high ping
verbal rune
Doesn't his damage increase with each use of a weapon skill?
verbal rune
It can also be the same skill multiple time, yeah?
faint flare
Yes
verbal rune
So it's pretty much: basic combo > over heat and rook when possible > heatblast until overheat ends?
faint flare
Rook/Queen is usually used around raid buffs. Rook specifically has slightly weirder scaling and is better around 70-90 gauge
Bit always Hypercharge with wildfire
leaden ginkgo
Is there any other way to buy subscription my credit card won't work

is there any use to not extracting materia?

oh lol yea Malboro sucks at fates lol

why are you playing in marlboro? i thought u were in eu?

@leaden ginkgo what's that
oh yeah and speaking of crysta. I'm thinking of spending some on outfits but I was wondering are the clothes dyeable ?
uhh
sec
manic flare
i believe you can search for the particular item in question on lodestone and it will tell you if it's dyable
leaden ginkgo
alright got it, ty

you can also hover over the items on the store page
and it'll bring up the lodestone tooltip

can anyone suggest what armour or weapons i should grind for as a lancer ive only just started playing so im a complete noob lmao

You dont grind for stuff until cap. Story, job quests and stuff you get from dungeons will be fine

I just tried to make a quick rez macro but it didn't work, do I need to add a wait between quickcast and raise to account for animation lock?
here's the macro
/action "Swiftcast"
/action "Raise" <t>
faint flare
Yes
faint flare
Also dont use swiftcast raise macros
gritty oracle
If I'm just powerleveling my retainer with quick ventures, do I have to bother with keeping up their gear or just slap on lv1 stuff until 50? (I want to reset my botanist retainer into miner for thanalan topsoil.
faint flare
Its so much slower
radiant sierra
ok
sinful mist
well if you have both without wait it's not slower i think
first press does quickcast, second raise
sinful mist
assuming you have both in a position where you don'T have to think about it ye
gritty oracle
Also there's a big chance the swiftcast raise macro won't go off correctly because Raise is a GCD and can1t go off if your GCD is still rolling, so you have to have godlike timing to minimize clipping. I personall recommend the raise macro to just be the Raise button and some /p text to let your team know you rezzed.
faint flare
Swift should be in a easily accessible spot to begin with
You do end up using it often
gritty oracle
If I'm just powerleveling my retainer with quick ventures, do I have to bother with keeping up their gear or just slap on lv1 stuff until 50? (I want to reset my botanist retainer into miner for thanalan topsoil.
twilit arch
i would not do quick ventures unless you really don't want to bother giving your retainer gear
gritty oracle
Isn't quick venture faster than 18hr since quick grants a level every 4-5 hours?
twilit arch
you do the specific 1hr ventures
quick ventures exp is random and based on the item brought back so its not consistent at all
gritty oracle
Specific 1hr ventures? Like the actual gathering ones?
twilit arch
yes
which is why said i wouldn't do quick ventures unless you dont want to bother with gearing your retainer since the targeted ventures have ilvl/gathering requirements
gritty oracle
Yeah fair I guess. I think I have enough random crap laying around to make it gear.
Also, if my gathering log has it checked off, the retainer can gather it, even if I haven't gathered it since I reset it, right?
wispy osprey
@faint flare thanks!

Is this the card to buy for a subscription.
twilit arch
yes
leaden ginkgo
Okie how long does it take to get the code?
twilit arch
just make sure though its same region as your account
digital code should be e-mailed shortly to you after payment is accepted, atleast thats my experience with amazon
leaden ginkgo
Are they cards all the same for pc and ps4
They ain't separate ones for each one are they

I would like to ask you something: I am currently on free trial so I need to buy the complete edition which is 40 EURO on the square enix website, but what happen if I buy the key on other sites like G2A which is 24 EURO? There are many of these sites. Are like scam?
twilit arch
do not buy from sites like g2a
they're not an authorized third party site and if its found that the key you bought from them was bought with a stolen credit card, your account is going to be banned no questions asked
radiant sierra
related question
agile laurel
g2a and suchlike sites are notorious for buying keys with stolen credit cards
radiant sierra
If I buy the complete edition I get a month sub for free. Is that month from the time of purchase? or first login after or what?
agile laurel
it opens your account up for serious action against it if you risk it
twilit arch
the 30 days free starts when you apply the code to your account
leaden ginkgo
Just buy from the official site👀
radiant sierra
ok thanks
sour viper

raven lantern
i got a related question too! https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/282175/final-fantasy-xiv-online-60-day-game-time-code-download
does purchasing this get locked to my SE account or can i gift the code to a friend to use after purchase?
raven lantern
awesome thanks!!
and as long as they play on NA server (for example aether) even if they don't live in NA, it works?
twilit arch
no, it needs to match their account's region
raven lantern
oh i see! okay
twilit arch
so they would need to log into the mogstation and look at that to make sure

glad there's a way to double-check, thank you!

by frontier training, do you mean frontlines?

that would be because you haven't unlocked your job yet
can only enter pvp as a job, not a class

god forbid something is interesting and not locked behind useless talking and cutscenes
robust crow
if you've never done ff14 pvp before

Hey guys, I'm interested in streaming FFXIV, but I've never streamed anything before. Can anyone offer me any pointers, or a site that explains the stuff involved? I know Twitch exists, but I've only seen a couple videos on the site, never mind used it myself for streaming. Any help would be appreciated, and it ought to be a lot of fun when I get it going. So anyone interested in that, hope you look forward it ^_^
robust crow
helps a bit to know what your goal with streaming is
are you streaming for fun? hoping to make it big?
open rivet
Twitch exists
If you're interested in Twitch, wait out the DMCA stuff, else you might be off the platform faster than you can say "A rusty Roegadyn is really really mean" 3 times.
other than that, just be talkactive - viewers usually want to be interacted with
robust crow
what kind of content in ff14 are you planning on streaming?
turbid sinew
Mostly for fun. What I'm thinking of doing is RPing my WoL while they're going through the game, and the commentary would be first-person narration as the events unfold. To give you an example of the perspective, the commentary would be something like:
"Today I'm finally going to join the guild and be an adventurer like the heroes of old!"
remote lintel
twitch is the biggest streaming platform and youre most likely to get an audience on there
turbid sinew
Got it, I'll try Twitch whenever the DMCA stuff gets resolved. It's mainly an experiment for me to have fun and get some confidence just talking, and learn to be able to put my voice out there in front of an audience. Maybe other people will enjoy it, we'll see.

i want a harp glam for bow, would the ARR relic weapon or the HWS anima weapon be quicker to grind
remote lintel
HW
twilit arch
depends on what stage of ARR relic you want to go to
if you just want the first step, which is a harp bow, ARR relic really doesn't take that long to do
even up to atma, they're both pretty similar time frames imo
granite spruce
What is the best materia in order for Summoner at max level?
twilit arch
Crit > DH >= Det > SpS
granite spruce
Pardon?
twilit arch
critical hit > direct hit >= determination > spell speed
slate arrow
SMN doesn't really benefit from spell speed so the best materia is Crit, followed by direct hit or determination depending on your gear

Is this per boss, or 1 award a week?

can passage of arms be flashed in a similar manner to ast bubble?

its like a channeled defensive iirc

Yes

the ast bubble has an effect that persists after it disappears

It can be flashed

note that while the damage reduction buff persists for ~5 seconds afterwards, the 100% block rate buff that you get while channeling passage disappears instantly

i've heard caster LB1 is slightly higher potency than ranged LB1, but both wikis say they're the same at 1650
anyone know for sure?
raw solstice
caster LB is stronger than ranged LB. The potency numbers listed on wikis are old/outdated and even when they were listed a ways back they weren't even correct

Does SE hate BLMs? I don't get gear, I feel bosses always specifically target me when I BLM, But the splosions' are fun 😄
1st run in Puppets cove and 0 BLM drops... and I didn't get anything

anecdotal
remote lintel
for a single run in an alliance raid its totally possible that nothing drops for you
each boss has a set pool they choose from
patent citrus
I think i ran 3 times to get a gear for my healer alt 😂 still didn't drop. Ended up just getting for my dps alt

If I didn't get anything, I can run it as much as I want for the weekly, yeah?

if you didnt roll for gear loot yes

jade lava
so uhh, sort of a subjective question, but just how hard are the ultimate raids compared to savages in your guys' opinions?
little swift
you've gotten everything
ultimates are both an endurance test
and focus tests
you haev to execute so many mechanics at once over a 15-18 minute fight
zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
And mistakes can very quickly spiral into wiprs
open coral
They're an entire order of magnitude harder
gleaming mist
depends on the ultimate and part of the fight
plush hound
Savages are for the really good players.
Ultimates are for the players that hate themselves. 😛
gleaming mist
in tea, dying is a wipe in 99% of cases
in ucob and uwu, depending on the spot, they can be very recoverable
little swift
Savages are for the really good players.
Ultimates are for the players that hate themselves. 😛
@plush hound this is just untrue
savage doesn't exactly have a high bar of skill entry
lots of people can coast on by and clear most of the floors
and your sense of self-worth is irrelevant to your interest in ultimates
patent citrus
Yeah, don't have that kind of mentality :/
little swift
please do not project opinions like that as fact here
patent citrus
pretty sure all contents are for everyone, just need patience
little swift
nor is it appropriate to shitpost it here
any one who can access the content is equally capable of clearing it
its a matter of patience and dedication, as well as finding a group you can mesh well with (especially for ultimates)

dry jolt
So I'm somewhat confused...I bought level ~60 crafting gear in Kugane for my level 62-63 crafters....and my stats are way too low to reliably craft level 60 items while wearing it. I mean yeah, I can get it with very low quality, but thats about it. No collectibles or or ishgard restoration stuff
all the guides say the vendor stuff should be fine.
dry jolt
mainly this one
yeah, I was going for lazy using that to just grind out the levels, but stats aren't high enough to use the 50-60 macros
so collectibility is too low
wheat plume
enmity and aggro is the same?
plush hound
Yes khell
faint flare
Yes
wheat plume
is more difficult to put aggro in a lot of enemies than in a little? stats of tank affect the max number of enemies?
patent citrus
same thing
just turn on enmity and spam aoe 🤔
i think it's difficult if you don't hit all the enemies with your aoe
wheat plume
so a lvl 15 tank could put aggro in 20 enemies with no prob? I'm asking because sometimes people say a tank cant put aggro in too much mobs
patent citrus
well as lv 15 tank, you shouldn't have 20 enemies since you don't have a lot of cd at that level
plush hound
They can pull them. Survival is another story
wheat plume
haha, yeah, it was an example
patent citrus
should be no problem 😂
wheat plume
so the only limit is how much damage at the same time can the tank resist
plush hound
But threat is independant for each mob.
wheat plume
But threat is independant for each mob.
@plush hound what is threat?
wheat plume
haha
dry jolt
Honestly my crafting problem is partially my own making...effectively leveled to 60 without learning how to craft, then at 60 you suddenly and rather rudely are forced to learn what you're doing. A combination of Road to 70 and Ishgard restoration
patent citrus
trust me, i was at the worse situation 😂
faint flare
Tank stance multiplies all aggro gained by a stupid amount so as long as you're hitting mobs regularly, aka aoeing, you'll aggro everything
patent citrus
i didn't even learn my crafter job quest till i reached 80
dry jolt
Yeah my second class I'm playing (62) is Dancer, boom day 1 60 levels of skills on your hotbar

what's the easiest healer to use? for someone who has onlyDPSd all his live and has 3 months of MMO experience
patent citrus
i started with scholar so it was easiest for me..
outer plank
@wheat plume general consensus is white mage
its also the first healer you can be since it starts as a conj
patent citrus
I level'd ast and whm recently still lv 60ish.. people often died but I think i'm getting better
plush hound
The macros for crafting tend to be built around top tier gear. It could be a case that your stats just aren't high enough.
wheat plume
I'm starting with dark knight as my first tank. Does it get fun to use at lvl 80?
hasty musk
DRK's got the coolest DoT in the game at 80
patent citrus
I think so hmm, fun is subjective
plush hound
WHM is the most direct. Damage gets heals. SCH is built around preparation
wheat plume
DRK's got the coolest DoT in the game at 80
@hasty musk great
patent citrus
but DRK is the poster boy of the latest expansion
the job action show off got a lot of cheers from the audience of fanfest
so that's a tell that many people like them 😂

I mean it basically is
wheat plume
@wheat plume wdym? salted earth?
@outer plank sorry, dont know what salted earth means, I'm not at end game and english is not my main language lol
obsidian patio
It’s one of DRK’s actions.
outer plank
@wheat plume saltted earth is a drk ability
patent citrus
but you don't have to worry about DRK, it's the posterboy of ShB as you can see in the trailer
wheat plume
My DRK is at lvl 31 lol
I want to use DRK at ShB because of that, its awesome using DRG in Heavensward because there are 2 azure dragoons lol
I've seen people use macros for crafting, but I'm having a lot of fun doing it without them (I have 6 crafters at lvl 40-50) Is there any advantage in doing it without macros?
patent citrus
yeah, some people find the rotation is fun
patent citrus
in the beginning, i would suggest doing so without macros 😂
but after you are making 1000x items later
it helps with the repetition
twilit arch
there's a little more flexibility in doing it manual since you can choose to make use of tricks
but most macros usually account for how much cp you're going to need
little swift
macros do allow for consistency in your skill usage, so you don't end up pressing the wrong thing in the rotation by accident
plush hound
When you end up having to craft a LOT of stuff in one shot, a macro comes in handy.
low zephyr
anyway i can find a try hard fc?
i just hit level 80 and i want to get into this game for reals. and grind away
wheat plume
macros do allow for consistency in your skill usage, so you don't end up pressing the wrong thing in the rotation by accident
@little swift Yeah, but I use Tricks of the Trade and Hasty Touch, and I've been thinking of implementing them in macros, but doing it 1000 times makes me see better ways of doing it xD
faint flare
Shout/advertise that you're looking for a higber end FC
patent citrus
FC is usually for social stuffs
little swift
can always check your relevant datacenter recruitment channels in here as well
patent citrus
for tryhard raid stuff, would suggest looking for a static
low zephyr
thank you guys
little swift
@little swift Yeah, but I use Tricks of the Trade and Hasty Touch, and I've been thinking of implementing them in macros, but doing it 1000 times makes me see better ways of doing it xD
@wheat plume you have to consider that relying on rng to save your butt isn't as good as well, though manual does allow you to fish for procs and better conditions
silk summit
I know blue has a provoke, but they don't have anything like a shirk, do they? How do you properly tank swap with them?
wheat plume
@wheat plume you have to consider that relying on rng to save your butt isn't as good as well, though manual does allow you to fish for procs and better conditions
@little swift I suposse macros doent's use hasty touch nor tricks of the trade, right? So with macros you need to have better stats for crafting?
little swift
not necessarily better stats, but just smarter use of your CP
that's why sites like teamcraft exist
for you to test your rotation out
faint flare
You just turn off mighty guard briefly or the new tank spams like Look or White Wind for aggro
wheat plume
what is teamcraft?
little swift
its a website that shares community rotations, allow for making of lists, as well as simulates the crafting environment
plush hound
Teamcraft is a website that allows you to build and test rotations
little swift
so that you can test a rotation and such
its listed in the #resources as well as the pins of #doh-dol-lounge

dry jolt
do ephemeral nodes appear at random times during their spawn windows?
I where one is supposed to be and it aint
obsidian patio
You have to “gather” from the nearby nodes for it to spawn
dry jolt
There aren't any nodes nearby
obsidian patio
Though all you need to actually do is open up the gathering window for the node and move onto the next node and it’ll eventually spawn
Which node are you trying to get?
faint flare
The nearby nodes are the ring of nodes your lv1 location skill points you to
obsidian patio
That’s not an ephemeral node
Just a normal unspoiled node
And yeah, ARR unspoiled nodes aren’t both AM and PM, they’re one of the two

is there anyway to disabled the camera from auto centrering
outer plank
@dry jolt it’s easy, you got things that raises your quality, and things that raises your progress
You’re usually using the same 6 or 7 skills in end game crafting as new skills like ground work tends to put others to shame

I believe you need to be at least level (60?) in order to start the quest in Gridania. But nothing other than having a lvl60 combat class

Do I actually have to farm these Tortured/Sorrowful/Harrowing Memories of the Dying in HW zones or can I also farm them while doing Bozjan Front struggles and events? I'm um... confused as to why new ShB content has me farming HW FATEs like it's 2015 again
gleaming mist
you can farm them in bozja as well
it's just an alternative if you don't want to be in bozja
plush hound
Bozjan Front mobs (not just struggles and events) can drop them.

Tortured Memories come from the south section, Sorrowful from the middle section, and Harrowing from the north section

mild bloom
Just a quick question to help me save a lot of time if I mess up. Im planning to focus on a class the can do support/tank (mainly) whilst doing dmg if needed and was wondering what class that may be so I can focus on that rather then picking a class that I’m going to want to change later.
Pls and ty
forest laurel
tanks don't do "support" all that much
they just grab aggro and use mitigation when needed
that's it
sometimes move the boss
remote lintel
depends what they mean by support
mild bloom
See I’m recently got this game and I understand paladin / dark knight can tank but out of the two I believe paladin is more party support while dark knight is self support. Because of this I was going to focus on paladin but since I’m new to this game I’m not sure if I’m missing any other classes that would be better
remote lintel
no
forest laurel
you can play as every job in the game on one character
remote lintel
the most support-y thing about paladin is that it has a heal
but you dont use it often
fresh lodge
Eh
remote lintel
like ever
little swift
intervention/cover are good single target "support" tools
forest laurel
and a pretty alright shield on your entire party when you get healed
fresh lodge
Both tanks have a few support skills
remote lintel
each tank has similar defensive skills
little swift
passage of arms/divine veil are good aoe ones
fast talon
dont paladins also have the wings of light thing or whatever
mild bloom
Yes but I want to focus on one class until I’m comfortable enough to swap to other classes

Just pick whichever tank looks the coolest for you

mild bloom
Alrighty ty
forest laurel
all the tanks function pretty much the same with some minor differences
fresh lodge
Or if you're just starting out, pick Gladiator since you can't pick up DRK until Ishgard
remote lintel
again, all tanks have similar defensive skills
they can all shield other people
and themselves
little swift
paladins cannot shield themselves 🤔
they have a shield
and veil spreads to others
but it doesn't shield themself
block =/= shield too in this game
remote lintel
i meant they have a skill that absorbs/reduces dmg on themselves
sure they dont have an actual shield
fresh lodge
Thats damage reduction, not a shield
remote lintel
i didnt mean shield in the technical sense
fresh lodge
You should use correct terminology
remote lintel
they each have skills that shields/blocks/absorbs dmg/reduces dmg for other people and themselves

quick question, i just got my first beast tribe in SB, does SB beast tribe follow the same rule as HW that when you rank up, you get an extra three quests for that day?
fast talon
okay so need some advice, im already on my last three allowances for the day but i already unlocked the quest to rank up. if i do the three daily quests and the rank up quest but dont turn any of them in, will i still be able to get six quests tomorrow?
remote lintel
you will have to complete the 3 quests before you can pick up the new ones that day
little swift
turn in your current 3 quests
and just don't fully complete the rank up one
and do that tomorrow
fast talon
but wouldnt the reputation gained from the three quests be lost?
i know in HW they dont carry over, is it different in SB?
twilit arch
you could just turn it in all tomorrow
little swift
that too^
twilit arch
you'd get your 12 allowances once you turn in today's dailies
little swift
just make sure you do so, or you can't get any more quests
fast talon
yeah that was my plan, so if i do that, i can still get six quests tomorrow because of the three quests of the day + the three quests gained from ranking up?
I see, thanks, just wanted to make sure
little swift
yes
fast talon
after grinding the HW beast tribe quests because I put them aside im trying to be a bit more efficient in SB

quick question
so regarding alts
if someone wanted to get a second alt up and running for the purposes of being a part of two statics
what's the fastest possible way
buy level + story skip?
robust crow
story is probably the slower one though
little swift
But its what you value
robust crow
so probably better value

so you'd be a level 1 at ShB

I have a question about beginner whm, is it normal to feel stressful and a bit overwhelming to first time playing whm without any experience as a healer in mmorpg? I’m getting better still feel lots of pressure during battle in dungeons.
remote lintel
yes
remote lintel
i did at first
once you realize healing is 80% just spamming one button it goes away
leaden ginkgo
My hands were so cold coz I tried hard to keep up the speed of damage
remote lintel
you dont need to keep people topped off
leaden ginkgo
O
ember moth
Any time you learn something new it can be stressful, bit I'd argue although white mage is certainly easier then scholar or even astrologian it's not pressing just one button
warped nest
Use your healing spells on yourself, and get an rough idea of how much it can heal
leaden ginkgo
Ok ok
ember moth
Anyways, on a side note, is there specific requirements for getting the retainer gathering pets? Or just any quick venture has a chance
warped nest
Assuming your basic single heal heals 500, If your party member took 200 damage but isn't getting hit anyway, just let them be
leaden ginkgo
I see
warped nest
If your tank is taking damage from dungeon mobs, then just make sure they are close to 90-95 percent health
the more experienced you become, the more leeway you have
ember moth
Also generally speaking unless there's unavoidable damage healing dps isint a high priority unless they are below half
And sometimes even then it's not a priority
warped nest
!action Regen
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
leaden ginkgo
Yeah sometimes I don’t even know it’s my healing speed/ power is good enough or my tank took too much mobs once and run off like a wind, it happens so often
warped nest
Regen has a total of 1200 cure potency, but it is gradual 200 x 6, it tick once every 3 second
remote lintel
your tank should be using mitigation
leaden ginkgo
yeah it’s normal to be stressful at first
I cast regen to tank at the every beginning of battle
little swift
Hopefully your gear isn't bad either
leaden ginkgo
It doesn’t help that sometimes at low levels you may get tanks who don’t even use mitigation and you have to carry them
little swift
That just sets healing to hard mode for no reason
leaden ginkgo
I update my gears after every dungeon
warped nest
So you need to decide if someone needed heal at all, if they don't, just leave them alone, but if they do then you decide: if they need a heal right away so you use Cure, or if they are not in imminent danger, you can use a regen and let them slowly recover health
little swift
Are you using the gear that gives the right stats?
leaden ginkgo
True good point
little swift
Look for pieces that give mind
leaden ginkgo
Yes mind and piety are chosen to consider to buy the gear
warped nest
What's your current level?
leaden ginkgo
Market/ dungeon drops I equipped is this good enough?
ember moth
It also helps if you at the begining of a duengon let people know that you are new to healing. Most tanks will pull back on heavy pulls a bit

Cause honestly a new WHM who understands how ff14 healing works even if they know nothing about whm will sil be at a bit advantage just by reading tooltips

In this game once you understand core mechanics all classes are easy moatly

warped nest
Cure II heals more in a single spellcast
leaden ginkgo
Yes true
ember moth
Tbh cure 1 is trash
leaden ginkgo
Medica is used depending on if all team was damaged
ember moth
If you can cure1 it you could of prob just stopped Regen and then dps'd
Dropped a Regen*
leaden ginkgo
Ah ok cure 1 doesn’t help much
ye you get more tools and (usually more experienced people)
since at low level you get a bunch of people new to the game who step in bad stuff, don’t use mitigation and whatever
little swift
Its not that it doesnt help much
leaden ginkgo
Lol th people part is a pure chance
ember moth
I don't think I cast cure 1 ever tbh at higher levels
little swift
Its that its less valuable when you have access to more powerful tools
leaden ginkgo
The more powerful tool means gears weapons?
hasty musk
more skills and spells which do different stuff
leaden ginkgo
Ah ok
little swift
!action benediction for example
zinc orbitBOT
ember moth
Yeah in this gave every GCD is important. And if you can save a gcd by instead of using 2 cure 1s, by letting them take more damage then using 1 cure 2 you opened up a cast for something else

There's also a big difference between playing optimally and playing good enough, whm by far has the lowest skill floor.

some of them are used in certain recipes, and clear demimateria is vendor fodder
exotic pumice
Are the master ones the ones you learn from the books cause i didn't understand that either
leaden ginkgo
I didn’t know whm has the lowest floor I just found it’s more difficult to feel satisfaction than blm
At the beginning
remote lintel
because theres no big explosions except holy
ember moth
Well out of the healers whm is by far the lowest skill floor
Dps is a different beast
little swift
Healing is a challenging role to play when you begin
Can be overwhelming to newer players
Tanking and dps are easier to approach in that sense
leaden ginkgo
Very true I’m blm almost lv80
ember moth
Your main goal to get better, and what you should revolve all your play around is this, - keeping players alive and then slowly figuring out how to spend more and more time dpsing
leaden ginkgo
Yes I found blm is much easier, I mean also get less blame too , sigh, that’s also a source of stress
remote lintel
the tank also has responsibility to keep themselves and the rest of the party alive
leaden ginkgo
True keep people all alive is the priority
ember moth
As you get better feel more comfortable and understand your class and fights you'll give your chance more time to dps through understanding mechanics as well as making better healing decisions
remote lintel
if the tank is eating ass then no healer is going to save them
leaden ginkgo
Absolutely, now I cast an Aero and run healing like crazy
Hahahah i had one tank was something, he pulls so much mobs that I really couldn’t catch up the healing
remote lintel
also you should never treat any of your skills as "emergency healing"
use all of them
leaden ginkgo
O balance the skills
ember moth
Yeah later on you'll be. Less panicky when something takes a hit, one thing to note is a huge amount of damage is avoidable, and damage is scripted, there's plenty of times where even if someone is like 50 percent or lower hp they are in absolutely no risk of dieing unless they stand in bad stuff. And when you start to know when you can push it you'll be able to heal less and dps more
leaden ginkgo
Umm lucid dreaming I used when half way mp is this alright?
remote lintel
at low levels you should use it at like 8k mp
little swift
8k mp is a safer baseline
hasty musk
like 70-80% mp
remote lintel
at higher levels you use it whenever it comes up
ember moth
You should always be casting so when you have 7-8k you can use it
leaden ginkgo
Ooo got it
ember moth
If you don't need to heal you should be casting dps
remote lintel
healing is just 80% dpsing 20% healing
ember moth
Yeah pretty much

any way to increase gp regen while gathering stuff? I see items that increase the cap but they don't seem particularly useful
