The map is like zones

remote lintel
#

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

half shell
#

ikr

but I prefer scrolling, but if that aint available, sad

robust crow

im lvl 25 from main quest and no mount yet I thought I got it at lvl 20?

Mounts FAQ

'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.

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

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?

tired rover

how do you ride pillion with a controller?

remote lintel

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

leaden ginkgo
faint flare
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo

I haven't done this shit in like, over a year

If it didn't the top line would be gone

Mkay, tysvm

fast hawk
remote lintel
#

get the rarity up

little swift
#

use appraisal skills to get the rarity up

#

and then collect it

outer plank
#

i wonder, is there like a reason why the cap out scrips to 2k each? how come they never fixed that

fast hawk
#

@ʎuuɐɥƆ thanks!

remote lintel
#

because thats the cap

faint flare
#

Prevent super mass stockpiling on patches

outer plank
#

ok maybe that makes sense.

#

then again, all you need is just like stacks of materials

#

then it just becomes scrips in the end

faint flare
#

Mainly like new books

#

And stuff

#

So it takes abit longer to get rather than getting all at once on patch

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

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

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

what do ppl spend yellow scrips on? the materia? what tier? is the 70 gear an ok choice or terribly inefficient use?

urban isle

Where can i get some modern-looking outfits? is it even possible for a trial account to get them for that matter?

wheat plume
#

Are the names of all Alexander's quests reference to something about time travel or repeating things?

remote lintel
#

not necessarily

gritty oracle
#

@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.

remote lintel

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

what/where is handking located?

im at eulmore, scrip exchange, wrong place?

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

For the ATMA Relic quest, can the Fates be any Fates or is it a specific Fate?

#

(in each region)

gloomy ice
#

Each stone will appear only in the zones specified but they can drop from any fate in that zone.

glacial isle
#

thx

little swift
#

specifically these fates drop these atmas

#

just clear out each area basically until you get an atma

and then you just do 40 using whatever

gritty oracle
#

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?

outer plank
#

yes ^

little swift
#

the (other) section for allegory is quite empty at this time so its fair to say thats where everything will go

gritty oracle
#

Thanks! And Revelation(Other) will be similarly empty, I guess.

silver ruin

yep

revelation (other) will house the tokens of revelation for the revelation tome weapon

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

And, is there a way to access that item search from menu?

but i dont know what happens to your stuff or anything

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

beast tribes have 3 quests daily @modern sorrel

except on days you rank up

#

in which case you get an extra 3 for that day

vestal needle

will there be new materia with the new patch?

green grail

no, new materia is only added with new expansions as the level cap increases

abstract veldt
#

Is there some easy way to level up Botanist when you are missing exp between class quests ?

jade quartz
#

Leves, Grand Company turn-ins

#

Or just grinding nodes

analog gate
#

beast tribes if you have them unlocked

jade quartz
#

“When you are missing exp between class quests” will be all the time.

#

You don’t just level for free off your class quests

half kraken
#

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?

abstract veldt
#

I need to look into those Grand company turn-ins since I am clueless about it

zealous flower
#

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

abstract veldt
#

'Provisioning Missions' I am assuming ?

zealous flower
#

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

abstract veldt
#

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 ?

zealous flower
#

oh it only refreshes daily, that's the bottleneck

abstract veldt
#

Oh okay

zealous flower
#

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

abstract veldt
#

Yeah the request I have for the 2nd item is because I was on my main lvl 77 samurai xD

zealous flower
#

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

abstract veldt
#

Thought I could cheese it and turn in the fisher one but it gives fisher exp haha

zealous flower
#

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

abstract veldt
#

Okay thank you very much

lost grove
#

For solo play as a dps is recommended to go dnc or mch if I want to optimize ranged dps?

half kraken
#

Whatever you play better

#

Mch has better dps

#

But a good dnc will still do more dps than a bad mch

lost grove
#

I can play both just wondering which one would be better when I optimize them fully

half kraken
#

Obviously in a skill vacuum mch has better personal dps

lost grove
#

agile night
#

is there a set time for how often a fate will show up?

half kraken
#

If you mean specific rare ones not really

agile night
#

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

zealous flower
#

if you have access to the companion chocobo that can help quite a bit when you're soloing

hasty musk
#

is it the Hildibrand one

agile night
#

someone else showed up

#

and yeah, I gotta find a place that sells more greens for the chocobo friend again

zealous flower
#

i get mine from the lady in a stall next to the gridania aetheryte ... i think?

agile night
#

oh perfect, found her

ember moth
#

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)

jade quartz
#

Gathering for gatherers, item level for combat jobs

#

Nothing else matters

agile night
#

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?

jade quartz
#

Sale?

#

There’s not some kind of gil sale going on

agile night
#

the game should go on sale

#

starting 25th on pc

jade quartz
#

Oh

agile night
#

so I can get off the trial then

jade quartz
#

Whatever you want really

#

Things to spend gil on are very limited as a trial player though...

agile night
#

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

proud willow
#

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

hollow wraith
#

There isn't really anything to dump gil on trial

jade quartz
#

If you’ve ranked up any beast tribes enough

#

You can buy their mounts

hollow wraith
#

I've been buying gear in ishgard for alt jobs and it keeps me from capping

agile night
#

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

leaden ginkgo
#

For HoH, which floors should you spam as DPS?

ember moth
#

Can always buy junk to level desynth

leaden ginkgo
#

And you should do HoH as level 60-70 as DPS, right?

jade quartz
#

If your dungeon queues are longer than ~15 minutes and your HoH queues are instant, then yes it’s faster

ember moth
#

Hoh like potd has a separate leveling system I think

jade quartz
#

Floors 21–30

#

From levels 61–70 btw

#

Can’t access at 60

ember moth

Still got a long ways to go

plain python
#

are skysteel tools as tedious as relic weapon quests?

obsidian patio
#

Kinda but not really, at least as a crafter

#

You’re just crafting a lot of stuff to turn in as tokens

outer plank
#

@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

What about Alliance roulette?

Would that be worth doing to level compared to the time it takes to do other things?

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...

heady knot
#

not sure whether i go hard farming gear since 5.4 soon :/

green grail

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

wheat plume
#

I'm DRG lvl 60, should I only target 1 enemy when there are more? If not, which action should I use?

obsidian patio
#

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

wheat plume
obsidian patio
#

Yes

wheat plume
# obsidian patio 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?

obsidian patio
#

Besides my aoe suggestion, nothing really special

leaden ginkgo
#

How do I repair airship parts?

obsidian patio
#

Should be an option at the workshop when looking at the airships

#

Might need to right-click the equipped parts

brittle shale
#

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...

open coral
#

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.

brittle shale
#

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

open coral
#

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.

brittle shale
#

yee that would be the smart thing but I think my whole FC is asleep rn lol

open coral
#

Well, it is between 4:18 and 7:18am in the continental US

#

On a weekday

brittle shale
#

maybe ill tryin beg someone tommorow, tks for the advice

gleaming mist
#

you simply just start a verthunder/aero cast, and when it finishes, immediately swap to your blu gearset

open coral
#

Didn't they hotfix that a while back?

#

So you don't get the xp anymore?

gleaming mist
#

how far back, cause its worked for me regardless of what they've said

open coral
#

I thought they'd hotfixed it like, a week or two after they raised the BLU level cap to 60.

brittle shale
#

hrm I have a 68 RDM

rich bay
#

They fixed that quite quickly, at 5.15 i believe. Not sure, but they have fixed it.

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

gleaming mist

you do need to oneshot the mob

if you aren't

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

open coral
#

Non-combat stuff? Uhh... the Gold Saucer, I guess?

#

That's got some multiplayer content.

hasty musk
#

gold saucer's basically the go-to space to mess around, yeah

open coral
#

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.

I just don't wanna flood this area

#

Ok

next marsh
#

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 🙂

empty thicket
#

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

hasty musk
#

@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

vagrant tulip

hasty musk
#

rest assured, it will get more fun and more interesting

vagrant tulip

#

Not to overlap the other question asked by @sullen canopy but for SAMS is kenki gained when you complete combos usually?

gleaming mist
#

before level 62, yes

#

after level 62, it's from every weaponskill

vagrant tulip
#

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 😉

#

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

sullen canopy
#

so LS concierge? anyone know?

hasty musk
#

@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

vagrant tulip
#

OH! this is where true north comes in...

#

got it

sullen canopy
#

@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

@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 (msq). 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.

empty thicket
#

@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

open coral
#

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

is diadem good for leveling up botanist ?

forest laurel

yep

#

really good

twilit arch
#

its good if you want to be lazy and intend to level crafters via restoration

#

leves and collectables though are generally better

agile laurel
#

also if you have basically no gil and no other crafters/gatherers to self fund, diadem is more realistic

plain python
#

manual works in DIadem?

agile laurel
#

yep

#

should do

is there a way to have the teleport menu screen pop up where my mouse is

instead of a preset location on screen

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?

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

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

#

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

gloomy ice
#

If you push him hard enough, he could skip a phase or two. If you're lucky, you can skip the doom thing, yeah.

tidal yarrow
#

haukke manor (hard)

manic flare
#

the tank said he was stunning the boss

#

is that possible?

tidal yarrow
#

boss is oneshotting us all

#

how and why?

manic flare
#

@tidal yarrow you have to kill the adds ASAP

#

if the boss absorb the add at full health, her attack partywipes

gloomy ice
#

@tidal yarrow The adds need to die first. Ease up on damaging the boss to you can handle the adds as they spawn in.

tidal yarrow
#

ye but holy fuck

manic flare
#

the amount of damage is proportional to the amount of health of the adds

tidal yarrow
#

we tried he's so fast at oneshotting js

manic flare
#

the hardest add is the lady amandine one

gloomy ice
#

The boss has hard HP thresholds and if you pass them too quickly, you will die.

manic flare
#

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

gloomy ice
#

Voidsent be weird sometimes

manic flare
#

isn't she just an elezen?

tidal yarrow
#

the third add

#

it's impossible i swear

#

literally 2 seconds she grabbed her

manic flare
#

you have kill her ASAP

#

it's a dps check

#

or have a very good healer with very good gear

gloomy ice
#

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.

tidal yarrow
#

so the more you damage the boss the tighter is the dps check?

manic flare
#

wait i thought the damage was proportional to how much health the third add has?

gloomy ice
#

Right. If the bosses health gets too low, it's impossible to kill the last add before she kills everyone.

manic flare
#

wait why is that?

#

does she absorb the add faster on lower health?

gloomy ice
#

Yeah if her HP percentage gets too low, she'll instantly absorb the adds.

manic flare
#

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

gloomy ice
#

The doom cast can't be interrupted but if you push it past a certain HP threshold, it'll just skip the cast.

manic flare
#

oh wow, then i was playing as dragoon, i guess it has amazing single target damage

tidal yarrow
#

what a fucking joke

#

imagine

#

not having to damage the boss

#

to kill it

manic flare
#

@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

tidal yarrow
#

i legit afk'd and we finally killed it

manic flare
#

hauke manor (hard) probably has the hardest boss of the level 50 dungeons

tidal yarrow
#

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

gloomy ice
#

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.

manic flare
#

@gloomy ice aren't the level 50 duties all ilevel sync'ed anyway?

tidal yarrow
#

still can't believe it

manic flare
#

even without the ilevel sync icon

gloomy ice
#

Level synced but not ilvl synced

manic flare
#

what's the difference?

#

between the two?

gloomy ice
#

Oh wait nvm it is ilvl synced

#

Still, the stat disparity is too high.

sly ridge
#

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.

manic flare
#

for example....would shire gear and scaevan gear be sycn'ed down to the same level for haukke manor (hard)?

tidal yarrow
#

they seem a lot of abilities but you basically have a melee combo and mitigation cooldowns

#

and some ogcds to buff your attacks

manic flare
#

dark knight is a busy class

#

multi-target melee combo

#

damage mitigation abilities

#

and oGCDs

tidal yarrow
#

if they're on havensward the aoe combo is just one skill tho that's pretty simple

manic flare
#

actually thats true

#

the single targe melee combo isn't until much later

  2. how do i gear

  4. should i get a relic weapon?
  5. what should i do/play in order to get a nice ffXIV experience
  6. tell me of the game overall what to do with max lvl

When playing trial if we reach 60 can we still play?

And can we still use the 30 days trial after that? I just bought complete edition now

white ridge
#

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

faint flare
#
  1. https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/The_Hunt
  2. 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
  3. Anything you want, raif side content, achievements whatever
  4. 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

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 bluequest called "Save the Queen" in the Kugane Dori Market which will get you started.

#

btw speaking of bluequest . if i buy the "lore upgrade" for another char. do i automatically unlock everything, including quests etc, or simply the main story?

open coral
#

Ah, those are either custom poses using a third party app, or they're very cleverly timed shots.

leaden ginkgo
#

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

open coral
#

The only possible exception might be the Crystal Tower since that's now required content, but I'm not positive.

faint flare
#

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

leaden ginkgo
#

Also, I assume that custom effecta for gposing is available only on PC right?

#

Effects*

faint flare
#

People mod on PC for unique stuff

#

But Gpose does have a large range of effects

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah I love taking shota but seems like going extra like that is impossible on ps4

spare totem
#

allright thanks you. that it doesnt lvl the char i know. thats all for now. thanks again guys

leaden ginkgo
#

Shots*

faint flare
#

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

open coral
#

Yeah, there's like, a level 10 sidequest inside the airship

faint flare
#

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

lavish vortex
#

how do you unlock Dhoro Illoh Aetheryte?

faint flare
#

Thats for namazu in Azim steppe

#

Either get carried up or unlock Namazu beast tribe

#

And you'll be taken up

lavish vortex
#

thanks!, what do you mean by get carried up? sorry

faint flare
#

Someone flies you up

#

In a multi seater

lavish vortex
#

oh, like, another player

#

got it, thanks

open coral
#

Or just... fly yourself

faint flare
#

Or that

lavish vortex
#

but i cannot see the Aetheryte on the map

#

is it locked by some quest or something?

open coral
#

I don't... think so?

faint flare
#

It shouldnt be...i got my friend to attune to it

open coral
#

Maybe by completing the MSQ in that zone?

faint flare
#

I think maybe

#

Been awhile

open coral
#

I've never unlocked the Namazu beast tribe, so that's not a prerequisite

lavish vortex
#

actually, i do see it haha sorry, i was looking in the wrong place, ill try to fly there now

chilly briar
#

Is it easy to farm Bicolour gemstones?

leaden ginkgo
#

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

heavy lotus
#

oh at the very start of the game can I do it already?

leaden ginkgo
#

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

raven sage
#

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

latent robin
#

Are leveling guilds a thing in this game?

#

Just started and could use some company

chilly briar
#

You on Gilgamesh? @latent robin

open ember
#

No they're on light

chilly briar
#

They’re called Free Company’s

open ember
#

Not aether

chilly briar
#

Pretty useful for new players have levelling buffs and other buffs

latent robin
#

Im on zodiark @chilly briar

manic flare
#

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?

leaden ginkgo
#

Will you still get decent XP from PoTD on level 60?

#

I need to get to 61 to get into HoH

open ember
#

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

manic flare
#

i think the best time to do PotD is before level 15, before you can do dungeons

open ember
#

I mean yes I agree but its good at lv1 too

manic flare
#

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

open ember
#

Yes probably

#

But the queue times people don't wanna wait for

manic flare
#

except for DPS characters

#

unless you have a healer/tank in the party

open ember
#

Healer & tank its faster for dunegon queues

vestal needle
#

Is there any way to zoom out more? Im having trouble targeting big boss

#

Like hades in his last phase

sullen canopy
#

@vestal needle yes on a gamepad it is a trigger and the opposite stick but im not sure on a keyboard

chilly briar
#

L1 R3 will zoom on controller

sullen canopy
#

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

low canopy
#

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

you may have yet to unlock it

alternatively, fates aren't too slow at low level

#

@low canopy do your class quest and your hunt log, fates to

remote lintel

@low canopy fates, hunting log

they're level 8

i was just going through my low level strats

open ember
#

Hide unassigned slots

#

There's a box to check it

remote lintel
#

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

remote lintel

character config > hotbar

patent citrus
#

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

gloomy ice
#

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.

patent citrus
remote lintel
#

they can all overlap with each other in terms of what they make

#

leatherworker just makes any leather armor

placid stirrup
#

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

remote lintel
#

no

patent citrus
#

hmm don't think so

remote lintel
#

they're main story locked

placid stirrup
#

The wiki says some of the level 60 dungeons only require level 60 as a prerequisite but I'm unsure

gloomy ice
#

There is not. All unlock after completing the level 60 trial.

patent citrus
#

almost everything is locked behind story and blue quests 😂

placid stirrup
#

Ahhh that's too bad, just wanted to make sure

remote lintel
#

almost all the side content of an expansion requires you to beat the expansion first

worn granite
#

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

patent citrus
#

well from my anecdotal experience, never...

worn granite
#

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 😛

remote lintel
worn granite
#

ohhhh

#

so even though it's off topic that's better suited.... i suppose this is content questions and help then

#

😄

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm at this stage for WHM's Anima weapon (Cane Of The White Tsar)

#

What the fuck do I do?

remote lintel
#

get crystal sand and umbrite

#

they explained it to you

leaden ginkgo
#

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?

twilit arch
#

stats don't matter

remote lintel
#

you need like 60 to 80 sand iirc

twilit arch
#

you need between 60-80 crystal sand and umrbite

remote lintel
#

yea

#

depending on rng

leaden ginkgo
#

And the only way to get Umbrite seems to be with.. More tomes......

#

And this is the NERFED version of the Anima quest line?

remote lintel
#

for the entire anima quest line you need like 15k poetics

heady knot
#

where to farm materia end game stuff

remote lintel
#

what do you mean end game stuff

patent citrus
#

materia viii probably? by doing leveling and alliance duty roulette i think

#

that's how i got mine, people still buys them

remote lintel
#

hunt trains

scarlet arrow
#

occasionally you can extract materia viiis from fully-soulbound high level gear

heady knot
#

hmmm ok

#

not sure what hunt trains mean

ashen pendant
#

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"

remote lintel
#

hunt trains as in hunts

faint flare
#

dh is the same value as crit

remote lintel
#

dh = crit means theyre on the same level

faint flare
#

But det is lower priority

#

Dh and crit are the same priority

ashen pendant
#

oh ok

remote lintel
#

from most priority to least it goes
sks
dh/crit
det

little swift
#

This is in consideration of the stat tiers

ashen pendant
#

"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?

remote lintel
#

no

#

its your preference

#

people do fine with bare minimum sks

little swift
#

The only thing those ranges change is how manu filler gcds you need

#

Do what you prefer

gloomy ice
#

Those GCD ranges, btw, are including your SkS buff.

upper pendant
#

is the ||warrior of light from ff1|| fight part of the msq or side quest?

msq

jade lava
#

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

remote lintel
#

probably not

#

people still play eureka and its been what like 2 years

jade lava
#

people still play eureka?

#

damn okay then

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Plus bojza is easier to solo

#

Due to how broken lost actions are

radiant brook
#

is there an efficient way to do the doman enclave restoration? like which items to sell?

faint flare
#

Whatever sells high to vendors

obsidian patio
#

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

leaden ginkgo
#

42 runs of HoH from 61 to 70 is still the right number just about, right?

#

I'm looking at this guide atm

quasi spire
#

what is the equivalent of 50/60/70 poetics gear for crafters and gatherers?

patent citrus
#

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?

quasi spire
#

is that gear BiS while levelling?

remote lintel
#

@patent citrus nothing

patent citrus
#

good midrange gear i think 🤔

obsidian patio
patent citrus
#

i see

#

but definitely if you plan on leveling one, get those instead of spending gil on npc

#

ok ty ty

quasi spire
#

I'm levelling BTN MIN and FSH side by side

obsidian patio
#

The level 50 “scrip” gear is pretty mediocre so you can skip that if you want

patent citrus
#

ah yeah good idea

quasi spire
#

basically been buying the shop gear so far (in the late 40s rn)

obsidian patio
#

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

patent citrus
#

hmm don't think the lv 50 and 60 are class specific 🤔

#

talking about kudzu and adept set

obsidian patio
#

Level 50 is the job-specific crafted sets

#

Kudzu is just normal vendor gear

#

yeah Adept is nice, but not a Level 50 set

patent citrus
#

ooo right, dam

#

why i can buy them with yellow scrips 😂

#

regarding the class specific gear, i don't see it anywhere..

obsidian patio
#

Have to go to their expansion’s sundry vendors

quasi spire
#

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?

patent citrus
#

oh true i see it now

terse crystal
#

how do i get the gems for the maps in shadowbringer?

patent citrus
#

killing rare fates

faint flare
#

Just from fates

terse crystal
#

how do i know the difference between a rare one and a normal one?

faint flare
#

Any fate

#

Gives them

terse crystal
#

ah ok

faint flare
#

You get more higher you rank

#

Super boss fates like Formidable and stuff give alot more

#

These don't show on the map

patent citrus
#

thinking of leveling new doh, should i prepare equipment set every 10 levels?

manic flare
#

how do i join #doh-dol-lounge

quasi spire
#

Can you link that guide here?

remote lintel
#

get the role

static yacht
#

?

#

can't you just hover over the tool tip

remote lintel
#

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

patent citrus
#

what is this useful for?

#

/recast

remote lintel
#

displaying recast timers

patent citrus
#

do people use that? o_o

remote lintel
#

yes

#

you can also use it to notify your team iirc

anyone know how to get that ffxiv discord status thing that shows which dungeon youre in?

remote lintel

its a different launcher

#

use at your own discretion

green slate
#

ah thanks

quasi spire
#

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?

obsidian patio
#

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

quasi spire
#

how cheap are we talking

obsidian patio
#

Less than 10-15k IMO

#

Though crafter/gatherer accessories aren’t from vendors so there’s that

quasi spire
#

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

heavy lotus
#

I cant find ul dah disptach yard

can you dye zodiac weapons?

got it thanks :D

leaden ginkgo
#

for crafting, does the % of quality you end a craft with directly translate to the % HQ chance?

twilit arch
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

so if i get 90% quality i have 90% chance of getting hq

twilit arch
#

so if its 10%, you have a 10% of HQ

leaden ginkgo
#

no matter the crafft

twilit arch
#

if its 100%, its a 100% HQ

leaden ginkgo
#

kk, maybe im just unlucky rn lol

twilit arch
#

lets just say anyone who does crafting or gathering learns to live by the mantra of "if its not 100%, its 0%"

rich bay
#

this

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.

astral berry
#

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.

leaden ginkgo
#

How much do people charge for a savage clear? (Gil, assuming this is ToS safe)

remote lintel
#

depends on the individual group

celest bison

Did mogstation ever have black friday sale or thats never a thing?

slate arrow
#

sometimes

leaden ginkgo
#

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

faint flare
#

Unspoiled nodes basically have a spawn rotation really within their level range

#

So look up their spawn times and make a route

leaden ginkgo
#

how do i know which of these is from an unspoiled node

faint flare
#

All of them

leaden ginkgo
#

oo lol

#

so it doesn't really matter, just get whatever is up
