damn.
change how it works how
have you played wow?
no
then cant explain
actually I can
Dont make map scattered into zones, but get actually one big map
nope, nothing like that is available
well there's this button
its the same thing as in the video you posted but instead of scrolling in you click
and yes the game is divided into zones
its not open world
ff14 doesn't technically allow addons anyway
that kind of thing isn't available in base wow either
im lvl 25 from main quest and no mount yet I thought I got it at lvl 20?
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
did you do my little chocobo
Are there any healers that could help me with Keyboard Keybindings for Hotbars? I know how to set them up, but I’m struggling with what to actually put there. Sometimes I can’t reach or press the keys in time which leads to panicking 😅 I’m a WHM lv56 x
what would be a good way to do anima weapon light grinding if I don't have access to alexander (and am level 66)
unsync brayflox hard
@remote lintel that sounds easier to use than 1-0 ty 🙂
Hi guys, one question regarding formidable fate. Does the Fate itself spawn immediately after chaining the smaller fates?
Is there a way to tell if you've gotten the extra rewards from a roulette for the day?
how do you ride pillion with a controller?
be in a party with the person
target them
use the right click equivalent
@leaden ginkgo if there arent 2 lines of rewards in the duty finder
So this has the bonus, i c i c
Yes
If it didn't the top line would be gone
get the rarity up
i wonder, is there like a reason why the cap out scrips to 2k each? how come they never fixed that
@ʎuuɐɥƆ thanks!
because thats the cap
Prevent super mass stockpiling on patches
ok maybe that makes sense.
then again, all you need is just like stacks of materials
then it just becomes scrips in the end
Mainly like new books
And stuff
So it takes abit longer to get rather than getting all at once on patch

Job quests & levequests 1-60
Namazu tribe & levequests & GC dailies 61-70
Qitari tribe & GC dailies 71-80
Can also make use of the firmament while leveling ur crafter classes
Make sure to use a commercial/revised survival guide while gathering
whats the best/easiest way to get gold choco feathers? I already recruited 1 person... was just wondering if theres a quicker way to get them
i read that people just outright buy anoyher copy and register the game and go that route
is there a website that can check the market for me? So I don't have to travel to the other worlds over and over
not one thats up to date consistently, players have to enter data themselves cuz SE broke whatever allowed sites to takeit from the game directly a while back
nope, gotta recruit people or like you said buy more copies and register em/make new accs, not very money friendly though
Now there’s basically just Universalis which just collects data on any market entries viewed by players who have ACT installed and the Universalis app settings on it enabled
So the data isn’t updated that often, especially for things people don’t look at the market for often
We have functionality here though
Anyone know the max distance someone needs to be from you in order to see your emote text?
!market primal chub
That’s from Universalis
I understand it’s approximately the distance where you can see their nameplate above their character’s head
Does dragoon/lancer not have AOE attacks in 30s?
@silver ruin aww so much world transferring just to check prices of few pieces of gear 😦
Nope
thank you!
Could anyone explain why it won't let me glamour this?
what level is your weapon you are wearing now
Ah, that'd be it. Thank you.
what do ppl spend yellow scrips on? the materia? what tier? is the 70 gear an ok choice or terribly inefficient use?
Where can i get some modern-looking outfits? is it even possible for a trial account to get them for that matter?
Are the names of all Alexander's quests reference to something about time travel or repeating things?
not necessarily
@fierce cobalt materia is a good one, as well as skysteel components. They cost a monstrous amount of yellow scrips, some 3-4k per crafting job. There's also ingredients for lower level crafts that cost yellow scrips, and a couple housing items too. Also, handking is amazing. I'm in half swallowskin, half handking right now and I can still get the lv80 legendary nodes. It will carry you to 80 and then some.
gob in the machine is a play of god in the machine
@urban isle for the most part yes unless you buy from the mog station
Thank u!
I just started and chose archer, I am currently level 10 but combat feels super clunky and uninteractive, I just move away while spamming abilities off cd, does this change as the game progresses, or should I play a different class?
at level 10 you have like 5% of your skills
but yes the basic combat of this game is using ogcds between gcds
Thanks, I'll check if I can find any other reference.
Yeah, I saw that, T2 and Bill&Ted

For the ATMA Relic quest, can the Fates be any Fates or is it a specific Fate?
(in each region)
Each stone will appear only in the zones specified but they can drop from any fate in that zone.
thx
specifically these fates drop these atmas
just clear out each area basically until you get an atma
so i forgot to cap allegories
need 250
what can i do before reset
did expert, doing msq
Do raids
When patch drops, will I be able to buy aesthete components with allegory, or will it be moved into a separate currency (white or yellow scrips) and there'll be separate allegory ingredients introduced?
yes ^
the (other) section for allegory is quite empty at this time so its fair to say thats where everything will go
Thanks! And Revelation(Other) will be similarly empty, I guess.
yep
revelation (other) will house the tokens of revelation for the revelation tome weapon
at least that
yeh, still 35 mins before reset
0 Days, 7 Hours, 34 Minutes, 36 Seconds
0 Days, 12 Hours, 34 Minutes, 36 Seconds
0 Days, 0 Hours, 34 Minutes, 36 Seconds

is it possible to redo my chars hair when ever i want?
Yes
Via the aesthican summoned by the crystal bell in inn rooms
Especially since there's several unlockable hairs that dont show om creation
Once you use your freebie, does that cost Gil to do?
2k gil
How can I search if an item is in any retainer?
like when I put Square over the item in my inventory and Search for Item
but I dont have in inventory, so I cannot Square it
/isearch Itemname
it isnt working
is there a way to do it from the menu instead than writting in the log?
if your item has multiple words in the name
contain them in quotation marks
@ember goblet i don't think you meant to put that here
not to my knowledge
thxs

What happens if you buy an apartment in your guilds house, but then leave the guild?
I dont know the details but from what i read you lose it
but i dont know what happens to your stuff or anything
theres a warning before you place a furniture
tells you that you can lose the item or something
you can't leave a guild without demolishing the room
About beast tribe fragments
Can you only get so many a day or
I'm trying to get the tank mount from the dwarves and just finished 3 of the beast tribe quests but it offers no more at the moment
Is there someplace else I need to go or will there be more quests available at a later time
beast tribes have 3 quests daily @modern sorrel
Gotcha
will there be new materia with the new patch?
no, new materia is only added with new expansions as the level cap increases
Is there some easy way to level up Botanist when you are missing exp between class quests ?
beast tribes if you have them unlocked
“When you are missing exp between class quests” will be all the time.
You don’t just level for free off your class quests
For mechanics where a tank blocks an attack with an ATE, like pool of tribute, memoria misera ex, and cinder drift ex, when you pop your cooldowns before starting the ATE, do they apply for every single hit you take during it, even if they expire partway through?
if you turn in a HQ for a grand company gold star marked mission you're basically guaranteed 2 levels on the spot

I need to look into those Grand company turn-ins since I am clueless about it
also protip you can check what the missions are default hotkey ctrl+u i think and clicking on the thing will give you the list of what they want
don't need to go to the company hq just to check what the requests are, only to deliver them
'Provisioning Missions' I am assuming ?
supply and provisioning, one's for crafters and one's for gatherers
all good XP (and seals), HQ gets you double and the gold star doubles it on top but is randomly assigned
or i just assumed the star's double but maybe not exactly, still considerably more
The material I have to turn in for Botanist only gives me 800exp while i need like 60k does it give me another request after i complete it ?
oh it only refreshes daily, that's the bottleneck
Oh okay
and when it refreshes the request is based on your level at that time so if you've been leveling a lot during one day the request will have been based on your starting level
Yeah the request I have for the 2nd item is because I was on my main lvl 77 samurai xD
so if it happened to be like lv5 but you're now 20 or whatever the xp won't be much at all for you until next day
Thought I could cheese it and turn in the fisher one but it gives fisher exp haha
it generates one item request for each crafting/gathering class you have levels in, your other jobs don't matter and the xp will only go to the job the mission was for
Okay thank you very much
For solo play as a dps is recommended to go dnc or mch if I want to optimize ranged dps?
Whatever you play better
Mch has better dps
But a good dnc will still do more dps than a bad mch
I can play both just wondering which one would be better when I optimize them fully
Obviously in a skill vacuum mch has better personal dps
Ty
is there a set time for how often a fate will show up?
If you mean specific rare ones not really
I started a quest that wants me to complete a fate, I'm not sure what to ... it started as I was typing that. nvm I can't do it alone it looks like at my current level
if you have access to the companion chocobo that can help quite a bit when you're soloing
is it the Hildibrand one
someone else showed up
and yeah, I gotta find a place that sells more greens for the chocobo friend again
i get mine from the lady in a stall next to the gridania aetheryte ... i think?
oh perfect, found her
For retainers does only ilevel matter?
Or do they look at stats as well
I.e. say for a gathering class, do they look at gathering specific stats or just gear level
(talking about quick exploration tables)
Nothing else matters
If I near the gil cap before the sale starts in another day or so (trial, 300k gil cap), anything in particular I should consider spending some on?
Oh
so I can get off the trial then
Whatever you want really
Things to spend gil on are very limited as a trial player though...
I don't have a good idea of how limited. I have shops available to me, can't use market board.
not sure what would be useful. I could take a break from msq which is my main money maker, or spend some on crafting resources
You could buy the best man and bridesmaids' outfits in Ul'dah, and sell them on the market later I suppose
Vendor normal quality gear for alt jobs you’re leveling
Uh
Vendor crafting materials
Gysahl Greens, dyes
There isn't really anything to dump gil on trial
I've been buying gear in ishgard for alt jobs and it keeps me from capping
I'm only at 200k now, so it may not become a problem. but it's coming quick since I started pushing further on msq
For HoH, which floors should you spam as DPS?
Can always buy junk to level desynth
And you should do HoH as level 60-70 as DPS, right?
If your dungeon queues are longer than ~15 minutes and your HoH queues are instant, then yes it’s faster
Hoh like potd has a separate leveling system I think
are skysteel tools as tedious as relic weapon quests?
Kinda but not really, at least as a crafter
You’re just crafting a lot of stuff to turn in as tokens
@plain python depends. i didn't find them that bad
for crafting tools that is
its like maybe an hour and a half per tool
but i also had melded aesthete to surpass all the bench marks for the macros
so it may depend on your gear
do u not get a manufactured coin on ur first clear?

I don't see why you wouldn't
is it a regular item or in antoehr location?
regular item
So, I'm level 60 atm, should I do PoTD 50-60 still to get to 61 so I can do HoH, or what?
is this your first class*?
ah then yes. Do that.
gubal normal would be faster to 61 if you dont mind sitting in queue in exchange for less time spent running content
Mm okay
What about Alliance roulette?
Would that be worth doing to level compared to the time it takes to do other things?
it's a roulette so yeah, basically every roulette maybe except 50-70 is worth it for the exp
Quick query guys: What's the difference between the UISAVE.DAT and the HOTBAR.DAT? I'm after the one that holds my Hud layouts... the Keybind file copy worked for my new toon... now I'm just needing the HUD...
not sure whether i go hard farming gear since 5.4 soon :/
hotbar is what skills are on what hotbars on each job etc, uisave is most likely the 4 ui layouts you can save, if you wanna copy the whole hud along with hotbars then just copy both

Thx. Hotbars copied contents, but the layouts didn't take. I mean, it's easy enough to move and resize again, just annoying lol. At least the keybind copy worked.
I'm DRG lvl 60, should I only target 1 enemy when there are more? If not, which action should I use?
At two targets you can alternate between them to keep up Chaos Thrust on each
At 3 targets and above, you get your Disembowel buff and then do your AoE
spam Doom Spike and do Geirskogul every 30 secs?
Yes
Thanks. All I always do is repeat an opener I saw in The Balance, and nothing else, for EVERY fight.
For lvl 60 DRG, what else should I do?
Besides my aoe suggestion, nothing really special
How do I repair airship parts?
Should be an option at the workshop when looking at the airships
Might need to right-click the equipped parts
is there a food or something to increase your chance to hit higher level mobs? I'm trying to grind lvl 49 mobs to lvl my BLU and its just miss miss miss...
No, you just have to lower the level of mobs you're trying to kill or use the co-op grind strategy.
For solo BLU, you're best off picking mobs no more than 5 levels higher than you.
hrm I see thanks for the advice, I guess I'll find some lower level mobs
I was going off a reddit post that said to try to grind from 38-50 on these 49 mobs... but the miss rate is just too much I think
Yeah, 10+ levels higher and you're going to be missing 99% of the time.
If you want to speed level BLU, find a cooperative friend to come out to Helix with you and kill level 59-60 mobs that you tag first.
It's much quicker and easier than trying to solo BLU all the way to 60.
yee that would be the smart thing but I think my whole FC is asleep rn lol
maybe ill tryin beg someone tommorow, tks for the advice
you can also do the same method solo if you have a high level red mage
you simply just start a verthunder/aero cast, and when it finishes, immediately swap to your blu gearset
how far back, cause its worked for me regardless of what they've said
I thought they'd hotfixed it like, a week or two after they raised the BLU level cap to 60.
hrm I have a 68 RDM
They fixed that quite quickly, at 5.15 i believe. Not sure, but they have fixed it.
ill try I guess
I remember a lot of people saying that it didn't work.
a lot of people were also using instant cast type spells for that
instead of a long cast spell
need something with delay to do the solo method
eh unless im screwing it up somehow I'm just getting "You can't change classes or jobs at this time."
oh well
that as well
Yeah, level 68 RDM isn't high enough level to oneshot anything in Helix
hey sorry if this was asked before, im very new to ffxiv and im enjoying it and all but what silly side activities are there that can i do with friends? stuff with other players that's not combat basically
Non-combat stuff? Uhh... the Gold Saucer, I guess?
That's got some multiplayer content.
gold saucer's basically the go-to space to mess around, yeah
You can do like, Chocobo Racing or play Triple Triad or Majohng or Lord of Verminion with other people.
And of course, if you aren't interested in the game's own offerings, you can do your own RP that doesn't involve combat.

thank you! ill keep that in mind next time i play
Can anybody help me in PM? Please
If you got a question, you can just ask it here
just gonna put this here but i recently had a pc temp problem while playing ffxiv and found out that the fps limiter in game does not work
so i had to manually change my fps limit through nvidia control panel and set v sync to adaptive
so if anyone has this problem you can just set the limiter from nvidia control panel 🙂
I'm new to ff14 and I was wondering if I'm doing it right. Since lv 1, currently lv 20...I was doing exhaustive main questions that makes me go back and forth all the time for delivering items or talking to NPCs. In a few scenarios I had to kill 8 mobs and then deliver some items...I'm used to MMOs where you do quests and also grind for your gears and levels. As far as I've seen it...Am I going to be stuck to quests forever? And for the dungeons, mobs will always be tougher in terms of tankiness? Hitting a mob lv 15 and I'm being lv 15 takes a long time to kill, is that right?
Sorry it I was rude to the game or anything
I'm honestly only trying to understand the game...since I have 2 friends who got extremely addicted to the game
@empty thicket
The first Main Scenario Quests have a slow pace, but it will speed up very quickly when you approach the post-ARR story and the Heavensward expansion.
AFTERNOON can anyone tell me how to find a friendly linkshell on omega! is there a LS concierge
@empty thicket anyone and everyone who plays this game will tell you that the beginning of the game is a bit slow both in terms of story and gameplay
^
rest assured, it will get more fun and more interesting
^
Not to overlap the other question asked by @sullen canopy but for SAMS is kenki gained when you complete combos usually?
ok..I guess im relying on Flank Combo bonuses till then ...and enpi
don't use enpi
@empty thicket THE GAME KINDA SUCKS MAIN QUEST WISE UNTIL YOU GET TO HEAVENS WARD AS THERE IS A LOT OF FILLER WHIOCH I BELIEVE AT THE TIME WAS SO PEOPLE HAD FUN STUFF TO DO BUT 4 EXPANSIONS IN IT IS A PAIN. KEEP GOING 😉
srry caps in error
No worries kk
Yes, I'll stick a little longer....the game has awesome graphics and a very nice environement...but honestly...progression isnt doing much of a job to hook me in kkkk
so LS concierge? anyone know?
@sullen canopy afaik finding linkshells is basically just running into people who make them or are a part of them and getting invited, similar to how FCs work
@empty thicket people leave a lot before they get to Heavens ward, it is a shame as the later expacs are really good
@hasty musk TY, it is a shame it doesnt have a concierge like other FF 😭 this game can be a bit lonely as most FC are small and qquiet and tbh the NN im on is also pretty dead
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/community_finder/ you can try looking thru the new community finder for a linnkshell
ty @ kaelwryn
Can you still get irregular tomestones right now?
No

@empty thicket A little later to the party, but simply: yes. The vast majority of the game, both in terms of content and zones is dependent on completion of, or reaching specific checkpoints in, the Main Scenario (
). In many ways, FFXIV has more similarities (from a progression standpoint) to the single player games in the franchise than to, say WoW, where you can just grind straight to max level and be able to access most of the endgame content without ever once really doing anything with the story. In FFXIV, the story is actually meaningful, with even most of the dungeons being tied into it. People who find themselves attracted to XIV tend to be the ones who enjoy really good story and aren't necessarily interested in grinding levels just to get to the endgame.
As for dungeon enemies, those are scaled for 4-player parties consisting of a tank, a healer, and two dps, so yes. They're always going to be tankier than same-leveled mobs out in the world. The trash mobs shouldn't take significantly longer to kill than a solo mob in the world would, though.
@open coral That's actually a extremely good explanation...Now I get the essence of the game
Feel bad for not reading anything so far...Maybe I'll start a new character and read it all since the beginning
You don't have to start over. In every main city, you can speak to an Innkeeper to access an inn room. On the desk in every inn room is an interactable called "The Unending Journey" which will allow you to rewatch every cutscene you've completed.
Oh better, will try this right now
for what it's worth, the first time I tried this game I got so numbingly bored i literally couldn't continue playing
second time around, i made a character I enjoyed a little more, powered through, and somehow got 2.5k hours in 9 months
quarantine's a bitch
Hi there,
I am new and wanting to try out the game was wondering if there is any tips or tricks you would recommend
!faq newplayertips
sick thanks
is there an opt to sort inventory space?
yeah, right click any item in your inventory and select sort
is diadem good for leveling up botanist ?
its good if you want to be lazy and intend to level crafters via restoration
leves and collectables though are generally better
also if you have basically no gil and no other crafters/gatherers to self fund, diadem is more realistic
manual works in DIadem?
is there a way to have the teleport menu screen pop up where my mouse is
instead of a preset location on screen
Can I ask a Macro related question?
No there's no way to tie the teleport menu to your mouse's location
Yes, you can ask macro questions here
has anyone made opie for this game ? I use it to bind all my teleports
Can someone tell why
/hotbar copy "MRD" 7 "WAR" 10
/hotbar display 10 on
/wait 7
/hotbar display 10 off
/hotbar display 9 off
doesnt work? It should copy my Maruder Hotbar 7 to my Warrior Hotbar 10 but only display my Current Warrior 10 not the copied version
why do you want to do this over making another bar and hiding / unhiding it
Why does it says in Puppeters bunker 2/3 rewards recwived
I have a lot of things I want to put on hotbars but the 10 limit isnt enough for me personally
When i passed on lit everything
you missed one or didnt roll @leaden ginkgo
2/3 means you've gotten your cluster and coin for the week
the 3rd item would be gear

game doesn't have any configurable radial menus controllable by mouse does it
plugins or otherwise
Twintania is a new world right?
Comparatively yes, but it doesn't have the new world designation
I fixed my own problem, I had Hotbar 10 as a shared hotbar not a unique per class hotbar. Im a fool
I bought the game on steam where do I get this code?
Ahould I use new nier halfrobe as a gear?
I kind of want to use piece as glamour, but if I do that then I cant equio it as a gear
Hmm have you tried email?
I'm playing on ps4 cant help with PC
hey all. I got current like, a couple weeks ago. I've cleared all of the extremes + shiva unreal ||(aside from WoL anyway)||, but finding a non pf-borne group to run the current savage tiers with has proven...difficult. That being said, I really wanna be able to do the 5.4 stuff as it comes out. Since I've mostly been pugging content I've always felt obligated to read up on the fight and such beforehand, and trying to work something out blind has been something I've wanted to do for a while
In order to do that, is there like, an ilvl I should be aiming for come this December, or will there be a quick way to acquire baseline raid gear for 5.4 when it comes out?
new crafted gear for combat jobs will release in 5.4, being i510. you can craft/buy it, or supply mats for friends to craft for cheap(er)
oh nice! That'll for sure do, esp. since I'll only need a tank/healer set most likely
ty
is there a command for letting your voice out without emote nor text? Like for example having a laugh voice without doing laugh emote, yknow 
Not really clear what you're trying to say here. You want to use it as glamour but not as gear? You want to use it as glamour and gear?
The latter case would be kind of redundant, as you would only be able to use it as glamour for the same class(es) that can equip it, and the former... wouldn't really be an issue?

I'm not understanding the question or concern here.
was the quest an end the song removed
Uh... are you talking about like... when someone rejects a queue?
/r yes
That's not a specific person
yes and he did it on propose to bully me
That's just random people not accepting a queue.
Unless it's someone you were already in group with
is there anything that looks similar or a reskin of the Gemfiend's Vest? aside from Valentione Waistcoats that is
You shouldn't have gotten a deserter debuff unless you were the one to decline the queue iirc.
i think it's like you get queued and then that guy withdraw so it timesout
no one can provide a satisfactory answer to that but either way if you think that guy is actually harrassing you just report away. Even if squeenix doesnt find it a reportable offense as long as you dont spam it like a madman they'll probably just ignore it
@bronze narwhal I think the best you can do is without the text, I don't think it's possible to hide the motion itself while still getting the sound
noob looking for help.
accidentally moved my hotbar off the screen, don't know how i did it.
can't drag it back
Go into your HUD Settings and move it.
oh perfect thanks
he admited to doing it on propose in chat
do they have access to chat logs
Yes
Very new to the game I just started a few days ago, I'm assuming the free company is like guilds is other mmos
Yes
how exactly do you level a botanist in diadem when you either have lvl 10/60/80 things to gather ?
still dont know what to do
just report it
if ur report is correct he gets proper responses from the gms, if ur report is not correct then nothing happens
just dont harass the gms for it
people say you get double the gold rewards from doma revitalization
but i only got extra 20%
I see : / thanks
Because you just started
as for doma, you need to build it first, like around 200k donation cap?
As you progress the restoration the rate goes up
I kindda forgot
And the amount you can donate increases as you progress
is there a flying carpet mount in this game
yes, magicked carpet. Its on mogstation

is there level 60 crafter scrip gear?
How long is the base game?
Oh that's not bad.
I think its far more than that, if you dont skip anything. at least for me hmm, prob its just me derping
what is the closest outfit to moenbrynda's outfit?
hi, for feeding chocobo to change its color, i have to feed him every 6 hours
or could i feed it all at once?
yeah, just make sure it's in order
do it before you go to sleep or something
since you cna't take it out while they are eating
All at once
how do bardings work in this game. when you buy a barding, do you get all three pieces for the chocobo?
or do you buy it three times
ty, it said something about plumage in 6 hours, that means i shouldnt take it out or summon it in field right?
Yes. It give you all pieces if it has more than one as a single item. Use the item in your inventory to unlock all of the barding pieces at once. @manic flare

@regal escarp Right, after feeding it dye fruit, leave it in the stable for six hours. It'll change once you fetch your birb after those six hours.
thanks
can the first boss of Sunken Temple normal be prevented from casting his curse?
i just went through the bossfight yesterday and it was the first time where he didn't cast it
i'm wondering if it's because we killed it so fast
or if the tank was doing something i wasn't aware of
If you push him hard enough, he could skip a phase or two. If you're lucky, you can skip the doom thing, yeah.
haukke manor (hard)
@tidal yarrow you have to kill the adds ASAP
if the boss absorb the add at full health, her attack partywipes
@tidal yarrow The adds need to die first. Ease up on damaging the boss to you can handle the adds as they spawn in.
ye but holy fuck
the amount of damage is proportional to the amount of health of the adds
we tried he's so fast at oneshotting js
the hardest add is the lady amandine one
The boss has hard HP thresholds and if you pass them too quickly, you will die.
that one is a dps check i think
if you don't do enough damage to lady amadine you will probably partywipe
note that lady amandine is also the boss of haukke manor normal, which i thought we killed
so weirdly she shows up again
maybe the devs forgot
Voidsent be weird sometimes
isn't she just an elezen?
you have kill her ASAP
it's a dps check
or have a very good healer with very good gear
In this case it's a reverse DPS check.
You have to damage the boss as little as possible until the adds come
It wasn't originally like that but scaling screwed it up.
so the more you damage the boss the tighter is the dps check?
wait i thought the damage was proportional to how much health the third add has?
Right. If the bosses health gets too low, it's impossible to kill the last add before she kills everyone.
Yeah if her HP percentage gets too low, she'll instantly absorb the adds.
going back to sunken temple first boss, is it possible for the tank to stun the boss?
so that it never casts doom?
because that's what the tank was saying to the party
tank was a gunbreaker
The doom cast can't be interrupted but if you push it past a certain HP threshold, it'll just skip the cast.
oh wow, then i was playing as dragoon, i guess it has amazing single target damage
@tidal yarrow i've done haukke manor (hard) 5-6 times, and usually haven't had too much issue with killing the final add
although we do partywipe on average 1-2 times with that boss tho
i legit afk'd and we finally killed it
hauke manor (hard) probably has the hardest boss of the level 50 dungeons
i was like
it's a damn level 50 dungeon it can't be an hard mechanic it's casual content
so i legit thought we were doing something wrong
if i didn't ask here
we would have probably been stuck there forever
ends out the "something wrong" we were doing was having a good dps
When it was current content, it was just a normal DPS check. As ilvls have continued to increase, however, it made that particular boss harder and harder to do properly because it was simply dying too fast. They never went back and corrected it either so now it's an inverse DPS check.
@gloomy ice aren't the level 50 duties all ilevel sync'ed anyway?
still can't believe it
even without the ilevel sync icon
Level synced but not ilvl synced
Is doing the main story around heavenward good way to relearn the game and also, why does my dk have so many freaking abilities? I can't begin to know which are important and which are not.
for example....would shire gear and scaevan gear be sycn'ed down to the same level for haukke manor (hard)?
they seem a lot of abilities but you basically have a melee combo and mitigation cooldowns
and some ogcds to buff your attacks
dark knight is a busy class
multi-target melee combo
damage mitigation abilities
and oGCDs
if they're on havensward the aoe combo is just one skill tho that's pretty simple
are relic fate trains still going?

hey pals. looking for someone who can explain stuff to me via dm. would be much appreciated. mainly contents end content stuff and other stuff
;p
yeah but it is so much, that via dm would make more sense, since i can relook stuff there, too
Search function
u r more likley to get help talking in the channel more of us who may know
Or just copy answers on a notepad
but as you wish:
- how do i unlock hunts. i am new to the game and simply played ms to lvl 80 n stuff so i dont know how to do stuff
- how do i gear
- what are relic weapons
- should i get a relic weapon?
- what should i do/play in order to get a nice ffXIV experience
- tell me of the game overall what to do with max lvl
When playing trial if we reach 60 can we still play?
@quiet parcel yes but only 60 and below content
or w/e trial cap is
u can get every class to trial cap if u wish
- how do i profession? i want to lvl up the smithy thing to craft myself some nice looking weapons
@spare totem do all the plus marked quests u come across they will unlock hunts
THEY UNLOCK A LOT OF THE GAME
ooops caps
And can we still use the 30 days trial after that? I just bought complete edition now
hey guys
i am really confused about how their systems work
so i basically am playing the free trial now
and i saw that it has a realm reborn and heavensward included
then why there is a option to buy a realm reborn and heavensward in the store?
if it's free anyways lol
- https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/The_Hunt
- Story gears you. At cap you gear via tomestones and doing lv80 8man raids and 24man raids, alternatively buying crafted gear for a big boost
3)relic weapons are weapons that evolve over patches and are grindy to get. Old relics sre glamour and the Shadowbringers relic is easy to get
5)just buy complete edition for everything you need - Anything you want, raif side content, achievements whatever
- unlock professions at guilds, swap to their jobs and level via crafting/gathering stuff and do leves (repeatable quests)
Because YOU DONT OWN ARR/HW
Its a trial
Trial =/= ownership
wait so basically if i buy the complete edition , will i be able to keep leveling my char?
i already bought the full 480 stuff from the mp.
how to i get the shadowbringer relic?
i think you misunderstood. with what to play/to do i meant, what content i should do and how do i unlock it. since i mostly fancy endgear, char has to look nice (aka glamour(?)) mount hunting (dont know if its a thing here), and other stuff i prob dont know about.
that doesnt help at all, since i dont know what i should do in the first place
!faq contentunlock
See unlockable content
In order to get the Shadowbringers relic, you'll need to have completed the level 70 Return to Ivalice raid series, which starts near the airship dock in Kugane.
If you've done that, there should be a
called "Save the Queen" in the Kugane Dori Market which will get you started.
thank you. that was what i was looking for. <3
can I change from steam to official launcher when I decide to get the full game?
okay. thank you very much
I thought if you did the trial on Steam you could choose to purchase the PC version
And that was the only time you can switch.
so. basically:
do the
stuff until you dont have any, then figure out what to do?
Pretty much yeah
okay thx
How do some players use poses that are clearly not in game or at least I havent seen them
Do you have an example?
Theres like shots of whm holding cane with two hands and stuff
Let me wee if I do have
btw speaking of
. if i buy the "lore upgrade" for another char. do i automatically unlock everything, including quests etc, or simply the main story?
Ah, those are either custom poses using a third party app, or they're very cleverly timed shots.
Ohh i see tons of those o. Eaorzea collection
On*
There are some good poses which I dont have access too, big sad tt.tt
Just MSQ.
are technically classified as side content and therefore aren't included in story skips.
The only possible exception might be the Crystal Tower since that's now required content, but I'm not positive.
The story skip completes the story , stuff required for the story and gives you flight in skipped areas
It doesn't level the character at all
Also, I assume that custom effecta for gposing is available only on PC right?
Effects*
Ah I love taking shota but seems like going extra like that is impossible on ps4
allright thanks you. that it doesnt lvl the char i know. thats all for now. thanks again guys
Shots*
Even people on console can make nice looking things
Just use the lighting properly, good angles, nice freeze frame and play with the gpose effects and stickers
Its probably some yellow quests inside of the ship
Yeah, there's like, a level 10
inside the airship
The ship in kugane where you go for the quest line
Whatever its called
Kugane market > south up the stairs and talk to elevator npcs
Then ship board npc
how do you unlock Dhoro Illoh Aetheryte?
Thats for namazu in Azim steppe
Either get carried up or unlock Namazu beast tribe
And you'll be taken up
thanks!, what do you mean by get carried up? sorry
Or just... fly yourself
Or that
but i cannot see the Aetheryte on the map
is it locked by some quest or something?
I don't... think so?
It shouldnt be...i got my friend to attune to it
Maybe by completing the MSQ in that zone?
I've never unlocked the Namazu beast tribe, so that's not a prerequisite
actually, i do see it haha sorry, i was looking in the wrong place, ill try to fly there now

Is it easy to farm Bicolour gemstones?
You need to use glamour prisms to change an items look, & naturally you also need both items to do so
Glam prisms aren't really used though, most people setup glam plates in inns because they don't take up prisms to switch to
oh at the very start of the game can I do it already?
Also, cosmetics in FFXIV are called glams
Mm I'm not sure
Go speak to Otopa Pottopa in Uldah if thats ur starting city, & see if you can enter the inn
X: 11.8 Y: 9.6, or another inn anywhere else

you need to unlock the inn through story, and you need to do the level 15 quest "If I Had a Glamour" in Vesper Bay
Since that unlocks actual glamouring
You on Gilgamesh? @latent robin
No they're on light
They’re called Free Company’s
Not aether
Pretty useful for new players have levelling buffs and other buffs
Im on zodiark @chilly briar
if you make a FC with the minimum number of people and then members leave, does the FC automatically disband?
and would you lose the items you put in the FC chest?
Will you still get decent XP from PoTD on level 60?
I need to get to 61 to get into HoH

No
You shouldn't be doing PotD at lv60+
You should be doing HoH
Just do a leveling roulette
And some dunegon runs
You'll be at 61
Or MSQ roulette
The EXP gain after lv60 is incredibly poor with diminishing returns at lv60
For PotD
i think the best time to do PotD is before level 15, before you can do dungeons
I mean yes I agree but its good at lv1 too
otherwise you can just queue up for dungeons, which i believe is quicker for leveling?
correct me if im wrong
if you do the highest level dungeon
Healer & tank its faster for dunegon queues
Is there any way to zoom out more? Im having trouble targeting big boss
Like hades in his last phase
@vestal needle yes on a gamepad it is a trigger and the opposite stick but im not sure on a keyboard
L1 R3 will zoom on controller
u can zoom out the smae way you can in wow for a top doown view

does ninja's fleet of foot get disabled in the Slice is Right GATE?
or should i always switch to nin for the movespeed boost
so i just switched from Gladiator to Rogue. my gladiator was level 17 and now my Rogue is lvl 8 but i cant seem to find a way to level up
O.o
...
Mayhap not...
from 1-15, hunt log is my go-to
kupo machine broke
@low canopy do your class quest and your hunt log, fates to
@low canopy fates, hunting log
can also queue sastasha
not til what, 19
and then only put 2 skills on it
The unassigned slots will only become visible when you're moving a new skill to that bar
Uhh
I ain't online atm
T.T
character config > hotbar
hmm difference between blacksmith and armorer?
blacksmith makes weapon, armorer makes their armor?
leatherworker makes mnk/sam armor?
oh wait i found their description in consolegames.. ty ty
Pretty much, for BSM and ARM. Also in terms of the materials they make, BSM makes rivets and stuff. ARM makes it sheets and rings. LTW, it depends.
they can all overlap with each other in terms of what they make
leatherworker just makes any leather armor
Are there any level 60 dungeons that can be unlocked without having done heavensward? I'm ofc doing the main story, but I also want to try finding them
no
hmm don't think so
they're main story locked
The wiki says some of the level 60 dungeons only require level 60 as a prerequisite but I'm unsure
There is not. All unlock after completing the level 60 trial.
almost everything is locked behind story and blue quests 😂
Ahhh that's too bad, just wanted to make sure
almost all the side content of an expansion requires you to beat the expansion first
Anyone ever see glitching like this? It's happene dto me for a while between multiple OS installs .... maybe for a year or so ...
sometimes my name gets replaced too
or just is blank, or does like what you can see my demon brick on the lower left doing
and that atheryte is another example of what can happen
well from my anecdotal experience, never...
i found one forum post relating to DX11 and Crossfire configuration (AMD graphics cards) from 2015 that was the exact same issue....
but i'm on nVidia cards and it's 2020 😛
sounds like a #technology-discussion question
ohhhh
so even though it's off topic that's better suited.... i suppose this is content questions and help then
😄
I'm at this stage for WHM's Anima weapon (Cane Of The White Tsar)
What the fuck do I do?

I mean yeah but, do I need a minimum amount? Does it not matter since stats don't mean a thing on this since its just for cosmetics?

stats don't matter
you need like 60 to 80 sand iirc
you need between 60-80 crystal sand and umrbite
And the only way to get Umbrite seems to be with.. More tomes......

And this is the NERFED version of the Anima quest line?
for the entire anima quest line you need like 15k poetics
where to farm materia end game stuff
what do you mean end game stuff
materia viii probably? by doing leveling and alliance duty roulette i think
that's how i got mine, people still buys them
hunt trains
occasionally you can extract materia viiis from fully-soulbound high level gear
So am I understanding this correctly? For samurai, direct hit and determination are more important than crit
"Lvl 80: Item Level >>>> SKS [to tier*] >> DH = CRT > DET"
hunt trains as in hunts
dh is the same value as crit
dh = crit means theyre on the same level
oh ok
from most priority to least it goes
sks
dh/crit
det
This is in consideration of the stat tiers
"2.16 < 2.15 > 2.14 | 28 GCD Loop | 457 - 811 SkS | 2 Filler GCDs
2.08 < 2.07 > 2.06 | 29 GCD Loop | 1,370 - 1,725 SkS | 3 Filler GCDs
2.01 < 2.00 > 1.99 | 30 GCD Loop | 2,208 - 2,537 SkS | 4 Filler GCDs"
I'm assuming it's best to be somewhere in the middle for most players?
The only thing those ranges change is how manu filler gcds you need
Do what you prefer
Those GCD ranges, btw, are including your SkS buff.
is the ||warrior of light from ff1|| fight part of the msq or side quest?
msq
thank uuuu

after shb, is bozja gonna become somewhat irrelevant? it looks really fun but im worried i won't even get a chance to experience it
is there an efficient way to do the doman enclave restoration? like which items to sell?
Whatever sells high to vendors
Allagan pieces and clear demimateria are good options
Sometimes large/medium housing kits (like the moogle/paissa houses) can be near vendor price
And then there’s always gear you get from dungeons
42 runs of HoH from 61 to 70 is still the right number just about, right?
I'm looking at this guide atm
2,550 votes and 303 comments so far on Reddit
what is the equivalent of 50/60/70 poetics gear for crafters and gatherers?
will not be as complete as dow/dom
but there are gearset for them, they are from the same blue pouch npc
what's the difference between mount/flying mount roulette?
is that gear BiS while levelling?
@patent citrus nothing
good midrange gear i think 🤔
Nothing anymore. It was more of a thing when not all mounts could fly
i see
but definitely if you plan on leveling one, get those instead of spending gil on npc
ok ty ty
I'm levelling BTN MIN and FSH side by side
The level 50 “scrip” gear is pretty mediocre so you can skip that if you want
ah yeah good idea
basically been buying the shop gear so far (in the late 40s rn)
The level 60 sets are good, but class-specific, so they’re more expensive to get for leveling multiple classes
But the level 70 set is shared between the classes
hmm don't think the lv 50 and 60 are class specific 🤔
talking about kudzu and adept set
Level 50 is the job-specific crafted sets
Kudzu is just normal vendor gear
yeah Adept is nice, but not a Level 50 set
ooo right, dam
why i can buy them with yellow scrips 😂
regarding the class specific gear, i don't see it anywhere..
Have to go to their expansion’s sundry vendors
So between 1 and 50 just getting the stuff for the next job quest + 1 leve was enough for 5 levels. Now should I hit Diadem?
oh true i see it now
how do i get the gems for the maps in shadowbringer?
killing rare fates
Just from fates
how do i know the difference between a rare one and a normal one?
ah ok
You get more higher you rank
Super boss fates like Formidable and stuff give alot more
These don't show on the map
thinking of leveling new doh, should i prepare equipment set every 10 levels?
thinking of following the ishgard restoration guide from #doh-dol-lounge
how do i join #doh-dol-lounge
Can you link that guide here?
get the role
just make a macro for /recast?
go to system > user macros
name it recast or something
then put /recast in the text box
then put it on your hotbar
displaying recast timers
do people use that? o_o

anyone know how to get that ffxiv discord status thing that shows which dungeon youre in?
its a different launcher
https://github.com/goatcorp/FFXIVQuickLauncher
more specifically its this one
use at your own discretion
ah thanks
So I overlevelled my MIN and BTN to 51, should I buy NQ Archaeoskin set from merchant? Seems cheap enough and it's a big ilvl jump (I'm avging 40 rn). Also, what are useful accessories at this level?
Yeah the archaeoskin stuff is super good
As for accessories, they’re kinda spread all over the place
If they’re cheap for your server try the Level 50 dodore stuff
how cheap are we talking
Less than 10-15k IMO
Though crafter/gatherer accessories aren’t from vendors so there’s that
yeah i bought the level 45ish accessories from vendor but they're all sub 50 ilvl. still a big upgrade over what I had earlier
I cant find ul dah disptach yard
can you dye zodiac weapons?
only the final two steps
its in central thanalan, a bit north-eastish from the gate of nald @heavy lotus
er not northeast. just east ish
got it thanks :D
for crafting, does the % of quality you end a craft with directly translate to the % HQ chance?
yes
so if i get 90% quality i have 90% chance of getting hq
so if its 10%, you have a 10% of HQ
no matter the crafft
if its 100%, its a 100% HQ
kk, maybe im just unlucky rn lol
lets just say anyone who does crafting or gathering learns to live by the mantra of "if its not 100%, its 0%"

Ashtrel, good rule of thumb is when it is not 100% HQ rate, expect a 10% chance.
I once got HQ with 1% quality, but that is dumb luck.
I've gotten HQ on 1%, and it was unintentional. I didn't even care if I got a HQ result or not.
Was just doing straightforward synths without doing any HQ enhancements on stacks of materials.
But it's just the way the game works. You get HQ when you don't need/want it. But when you desire it, it may escape your grasps.
I'm talking to you, quality gauge... giving me NQ at 73% quality.
How much do people charge for a savage clear? (Gil, assuming this is ToS safe)
depends on the individual group
Did mogstation ever have black friday sale or thats never a thing?
sometimes
fastest way to get yellow gatherer's scrips? do i just choose items that have the highest yield and farm those
like raw triplite here
already finished custom deliveries
Unspoiled nodes basically have a spawn rotation really within their level range
So look up their spawn times and make a route
how do i know which of these is from an unspoiled node
All of them
