@hasty musk
just kinda wish the game would at least reward you with a different piece if it saw you already had another piece, that way you can go through the entire loot table and still guarantee that you get the thing you need if you've already gotten everything on the loot table
still allows for bad RNG but makes it bearable knowing that it would be guaranteed eventually
I mean assuming that you are going north to keep uptime on scythe with the tanks, then it seems unlikely that you would have to sprint to the healers to stack with them
is everyone going north when you do it?
maybe you're right, but that doesn't really make sense to me
is everyone going north for scythe
So like axe kick i follow healer
The scythe kick maybe everyone go north?
Then randomly stack somewhere?
I'm asking if that's what's happening when you do it
was one of them you
Ye
were the other two the tanks
alright, well
Gonna have to practice more and see
Alright
well that makes a lot of sense now
I just run north
look at me, over here spreading false info 
I did a fieldcraft leve and it asked me if I wanted to turn in more. Is there a limit or diminishing xp or anything?
ENPI?!
How long until leveling/MSQ dailies reset?
If I'm spending the time to get the resources for 1, getting for 10 doesn't seem that much harder
What
How did you got to e8s doing like that mate? 
Enpi does damage
It breaks your 60s cycle
Yep can try
Playing melee is greeding
Im still practicing
You gotta be greedy
You also got the backstep
The backstep gives you a powered up Enpi
If there is a forced discomnect from boss, just do a normal GCD(greed it)>backstep>Enpi and if mechanic is not solved yet, you can Enpi again... but thats it

@leaden ginkgo
Thanks Dad
if you buy the 70 boost do you also need to buy the story boost?
yes
make sure you run all the way out to your mirror for axe and stand inside her hitbox for the mirror reflect
Okay so I'm level 70 as a DPS & I need to get to 71, I've already done my MSQ/leveling roul
Any suggestions?

frontlines roulette
yeah its pretty good
trials for its time to exp isn't bad either
also alliance raid is your other good exp roulette
then do your lv69 dungeon
I believe so, yes
Ohhh, so I'll get two Fantasia regardless
π
One from ARR, and the other from Collectors Edition
Alright ty
Axe back to mirror then in
Scythe stay inside then goto mirror
Follow healer to know where your mirror is
Can you not put Bardings on a Black Chocobo or are those only for the normal Chocobo?
Only the normal Company Chocobo wears bardings
and has customisable colour and stuff
It's the only customisable mount.
I assume you need to finish the MSQ entirely to get into Bozjan?
Not just get to 5.0/5.1 story?
just shb iirc
5.1 finished, or just get TO 5.1?
5.1 finished
You also need to have the level 70 Ivalice Alliance raids done and their questline completed, as you probably know
Ah
Yeah you need to do the level 70 alliance raid series
containing the three level 70 24-man raids
Ehh, does anyone ever even queue up for them?
sometimes
i just did them today
Yeah
from what I've seen, it can be a toss up
Since they're required to get into Bozja, people are doing them.
Are they easy enough to go into completely blind & do?
Yeah
the 3rd raid can be hard if you go in completely blind
They're a little tougher than the average 24-man so you'll probably die a bunch, but you'll still easily clear it in one run.
the 3rd and 4th bosses are harder than the others
The questline starts with
"Dramatis Personae" in Kugane.
Mm one last question
Is 450 gear fine for The Grand Cosmos? I'd assume so but, I haven't played in over half a year so idk
Alright, thanks Dad
π
What's the best way to get gelmorran potsherds from potd? 1-50 for guaranteed 1 at 50 or just do 51-60?

@obsidian hornet You only get them when you clear floors 50 or 100. The chance of getting a potsherd from a bronze chest is extremely low and it only goes to one party member.
So yeah, do 1-50
or 51-100
whatever queues better
alright thanks
there is farm guide where you solo I believe π€
rather not solo, feel like it'd take longer
basically, you get right poms setting, rerunning F41-49 (commit suicide). Your pom is reset back to F41, while you keep any potshard you get
I think you should go with Paladin or Red Mage. Self-heal class works well
though it may take a while for PA to heal. Not sure about Red Mage
alright i'll take a look at it
Do I want to rebuild Doman Enclave for any reason?
lore and looks nice
Unlock a vendor that gives you double gil for vendor trash by the end
upgrade the zone
looks real nice by the end
Any reason to do it before 80?
it's easy, sell a bunch of items each week
Ok thx
is there a way to see gameplay statistics like times completed a dungeon, money earned, time played, that sort of thing?
Plenty of stuff is tracked in achievement counters
until you reach the end and complete that achievement
oh right, that makes sense
Times completing a specific dungeon is not tracked
But the game do track total numbers of dungeon cleared, iirc
character config > control > target iirc
Character Config > Control Setting > Target > Untick Enable auto-target when no target specified.
It's on by default.
is there anyway to see if your partner has anulled the eternal bond
What's the collaboration event the system message speaks of?
Oh okay, dunno why they don't mention it by name.
oof. You can also back it up to the server btw
If you prefer to have that setting on, you can target yourself during Extreme Caution
to avoid autoattacking
you can also spam escape to clear target, or sheathe weapon
sheathe weapon is the easiest solution imo
@woeful monolith I don't believe there's any way to see. Even if you've annulled it on your end, if your partner still has their ring afaik they can still teleport to you.
i think my partner did, im trying to find out >< i still have the ring @jade quartz
ty anyway
Will i have to buy a new apartment if my sub runs out?
Apartments don't get destroyed unless you intentionally vacate them.
Houses are destroyed if you don't enter them for 45 days.
So if you have a house and your sub lapses for over 45 days then it'll be destroyed
but your apartment will always be fine
Okay I knew that thing about the house and plots and wondered if it was the same for apartments, ty!
Stormblood area has apartments?
yes
let's say you have an apartment in Mist, it is easy to move over there?
or it will take time?
You just have to empty and vacate your current apartment and then purchase a new one.
There's no autotransfer system for apartments
cool

Okay so I'm trying to access Bozjan
From what I understand the requirements are:
- Have a level 71 job
- Finished MSQ up until 5.1
- Finish the 3 24 man 70 raids
Am I missing anything else?
no
The questline starts with
"Dramatis Personae" in Kugane.

Thanks Mom & Dad

Okay so, the NPC that gives it out has no thingy above its head
And I haven't ever done it before
I'm up to 5.2 on MSQ & I have a level 80 char
Then you have done it before.
Check your completed quest journal.
Under Chronicles of a New Era > Return to Ivalice
Oh, ur right
So.. Am I just fine to enter the raids now?

Oh no, its a quest line
Reeee
Go to the Kugane Airship landing and go onto the Prima Vista
we've said its a quest line
for the next quest "A City Fallen"
What do I do with artifact gear? I got the lv70 BLM set, and I accidently opened it. I don't like how it looks, I can't sell it or desynth it, so just destroy it?
is it better than your current gear?
nah, I had stuff I got with poetics, so
easy enough, wish I could shove it back into a coffer though
got like, 5 other coffers sitting in my inventory I'll probably open on a rainy day but until then
Something tells me trying to do these old 70 24man raids at 3AM isn't such a good idea..

That's a pretty good result for this time
its like 9 am or something in EU
Crystal
Yeah, Crystal
my brain had a windows error there
Yeah either way idk if I'll even be able to clear these 24 mans during the day, because you know, Crystal + its older content
Plus I figure most people who want in Bozjan have already done them so far
you will be able to clear them.
Just because Crystal memes exist doesn't mean they can't clear 24-mans 
that's ridiculous
queues for those 3 fast enough; dw
And the queues do pop.
I know, just worried because its also old content etc.
orbonne monastery popped for me today in like 1 1 mins
is blue mage good for non boss fates?
Super good.
Yes cause they can insta kill alot of things oe just superior aoe spam
!action The Ramβs Voice
Deals ice damage to all nearby enemies with a potency of 220 for the first enemy, and 50% less for all remaining enemies.
Additional Effect: Deep Freeze
Duration: 12s
Scholars theorize that this particular spell was born of the variety of aetherial manipulation often performed by northern rams to survive the harsh climes of high elevationsβbut when ram became chimerical head, it began to favor offense over defense.
Chimera / Cutter's Cry
Dhorme Chimera / A Relic Reborn: The Chimera
Azulmagia / The Masked Carnivale #25
Type: Magic
Aspect: Ice
Rank: 2
This is basically Holy on Steroids
Deep Freeze is essentially a stun, and with how resistance falloff works this gets a total of 21 seconds of frozen
Walk up to them if you can stay in the area of the fate
If not then one of the various ranged AoE moves
!action Glower
Deals lightning damage to all enemies in a straight line before you with a potency of 220 for the first enemy, and 50% less for all remaining enemies.
Additional Effect: Paralysis
Duration: 6s
Perhaps best known as the unsettling hallmark of the cyclops, Glower involves funneling aether through the eyes as if they were arcane circlesβmuch like its sister spell, The Look. Its highly concentrated aether strikes foes like a levinbolt, leaving their skin singed and muscles seizing.
Coincounter / The Aurum Vale
Type: Magic
Aspect: Lightning
Rank: 4
!action electrogenesis
Deals lightning damage to target and all enemies nearby it with a potency of 220 for the first enemy, and 50% less for all remaining enemies.
This efficacious technique is, in nature, employed by the voracious sea serpent, which will spit a bubble of water that takes on the electric charge of the serpent's own scalesβgiving the creature's prey a rather nasty shock upon impact.
Conodont / Sea of Clouds (26, 33)

they tend to be spread out so my elecrto gen only hits on :/
Hiya, is it still worth trying to clear this tier since 5.4 is coming soon? Been nearly a week and still don't have luck even passing E5S on PF
Dragons aren't bad either
i think its fine to at least build some savage experience
but we're about a couple weeks out from 5.4
whats the best instant kill spell for boss fates? im using missile but i havent gotten the other ones
a primal one i would assume
doom/tail screw are other instant death related ones
theres a primal instant kill spell?
ok thx ill just keep going at it then in the meantime
uh i dont think there are many spells that guarantee instant death on a target regardless of their hp
but im pretty sure the primal spells do enough damage that it will basically one shot a boss
nah they usually don't
400 potentie is far from one shotting any boss synced
When you sell items with retainer in market board where does the gil go to them or to me ?
to them
Oh okay thats why I was not getting any gil π i feel dumb
so whats the best instant kill spell?
why wouldnt you just use high pot skills and kill it
missile would be the most consistent one
but in a lot of expansion fates
missile doesn't work
so just kill the boss with everything else
high pot skills wont kill a boss fate in arr
Kills them faster than usual
missile is the most consistent

2-3 casts
then hit it with something else
if you have 2 blus cast missile at the same time and both don't miss its 100%
Did they confirm faux hollow reward buff next patch?
not that i remember in the translated interview
but we'll find out for sure in about a day anyways
I'm pretty sure they did in one of the recent interviews
how efficient is bozja 71-80 compared to dungeon spamming?
more efficient
that interview i interpret that as they've added more items
This just says more rewards, but not more faux leves 
not that they've made rewards better or easier to earn leaves
my mistake then
In its current state unreal is nowhere worth the effort
to them
Whatβs the difference between the shadowbringers standard edition and ffxiv complete edition? I thought the shadowbringers ep also includes heavensward and stormblood already?
And you need to own the starter edition to use Shadowbringers
If you buy Shadowbringers Standard Edition then you also need to buy FFXIV Starter Edition.
so if you don't own the base game (a realm reborn + heavensward) then complete edition is the easy package to buy
Complete Edition combines both of those purchases into one.
I don't think this is right
It is.
yes it is
Shadowbringers doesn't have base game right
no it doesnt
Shadowbringers is stormblood and Shadowbringers
How can shadowbringers not have....shadowbringers
FFXIV Starter Edition contains A Realm Reborn and Heavensward
why are all the west thanalan bosses all instant death immune >.>
Shadowbringers Standard Edition contains Stormblood and Shadowbringers
yeah obviously Shadowbringers contains...Shadowbringers
he's just being pedantic
i'm just going to assume you're being pedantic
ignore it 
and therefore don't be stupid
we should make an faq explaining the products

The actual relic
it allows me to undertake it as another class, but why would i
And upgrading it
i can only have one right
if iβm playing the free trial which reaches heavensward do i still have to buy the complete edition which includes the base game?
You can have multiple relics
you can have one relic for each class
You can have them all
@urban isle you need the base game yes
whether you buy complete or not is up to you
so since i already have the relic on my DRK theres no reason to do "the will to live" on my DRK right?
You cant
@urban isle you DONT OWN the game on free trial so you need the starter edition ontop of Shadowbringers (or complete edition) to own everything
I wasn't being pedantic I just didn't read between the lines since I am stupid
@remote lintel @faint flare thank you very much!
there shouldnt be any issues with the game if download got interrupted because game couldnt download certain file apparently? But when launching the launcher again went on as normal. π€
update internet explorer
huh?
I should have it up to date i think, since i was updating everything as this is a fresh installment.
if it keeps downloading as normal then it's probably fine
there's a repair button in the launcher settings iirc so you can always click that if you get any issues when running the game
i guess i'll see in the end, idk if thats just my connection that sucks so much ass or something else, but good to know there's repair button, maybe it doesnt show before the whole game downloads? π€ Since i dont think i saw one, but thanks alot!
is there some optimal way to farm yellow gathering scrips?
does the fish caught in the ocean fishing trip or even fish in general sell for anything? so far on the ULTROS market they're pretty much worthless.
is there a lfg server in here?
recruitment channel
What ranged class could I play that doesnt have cast time bars but also isnt insane to play π
physical ranged
machinist? π€
I feel like I might not enjoy melee combat as much tbh
Ye I was gonna go with that or SAM but a friend of mine told me to go SAM since they got a good MCH already
you have bard dancer and machinist
oo then just any physical ranged π
so im conflicted do i say fuck it and go MCH anyways or keep melee
what are you queueing for
ah! is it true DNC endgame hurts your fingers? or not really?
looks unreal o_o, did you tick all the language?
@gentle grail it doesnt
don't think any class will hurt your finger π
kugane ohashi
can someone explain how to do the custom deliveries i went out to collect Dated Ratz Coins but when I went back I can't trade them
@wild berry it's late and no one does that content
what's the point of fishing in the first place if it's kind of worthless in items?
need higher collectability maybe
yeah.. i mean thats why im asking if there;s somewhere i can look for a group...
@graceful lantern a few fsh items sell for decently
My items dont have any collectability do i need to unlock that ?
yeh, party finder
Could anyone know why my character is gone from my account? (Mogstation and Lodestone say that I have no character under the account i'm using , and I didn't delete it)
ah XD uhmm will i be able to do stuff on my own as DNC tho? Since its low dps i think
#recruitment-aether
mostly though fisher is there as kind of for fun type gatherer
Fisher also sometimes is useful for aethersands and stuff
@abstract veldt yeh, need to do proper rotation to increase collectability
k, so i guess i'll stop wasting time on leveling that fishing for now
aim for the highest ofc
and maybe you haven't put your collector's glove? not sure
items are automatically crafted as collectables I believe

oo i thought he meant gathering π
cause he went out to get something looks like to me
yeah gathering
get the collectability up
oh i wasnt using collectors glove π
what's collectors glove? the stance that makes you have collectability?
yeah
is there a general rotation that you use to get collectability of gathering items up? maybe it's cause of my gear atm but i seem to have difficulty with that. just barely getting MIN collectability one item at a time
Yes
i don't see that channel

Advanced gathering doc By Maria Nyan Introduction Hello, Iβm Maria Nyan from the balance discord and in this doc Iβm going to teach you more ways to become better at grinding yellow/white scips as well as giving you options to more advanced gathering rotations. You can always click on the pic...
You need to give yourself the DoH role in #612757637813239808 to access #doh-dol-lounge
ah, kk. ty
is there a channel i could ask specific question for class rotation or is here fine?
they'll just link you to the balance
I am looking at DNC opener on this website
does this mean since the abilities are RNG
i would just use whatever comes up?
Dancer is literally "press the glowing button"
oh wait
that's steps
yeah press the appropriate steps
and the black GCD box means press a GCD in your proc rotation
ah i see
Just press the glowing button
it's standard opener and technical opener
Thats literally dancer
it's not even a difficult opener
Dancer is branded as the easiest job, easier than RDM
oh, i might be too dumb to understand maybe just reading i might just ask someone to show me live haha
the image is broken down into different sections
You press it
But MCH is more damage correct? Does it matter which i pick maybe?
No
ye tho im kind of not really understanding some terms i think thats why
Dancer gives alot of buffs to offset the lower personal damage
you'll understand them when you lvl dnc
Ah alrighty
There is custom deliveries for each expansion right ?
yes
the machinist opener is harder tbh
Heavensward onwards yes
Does it also scale the exp you get and scrips ?
Yes
o oki
@remote lintel sorry for all the dumb questions π
I am wasting my deliveries on the HW one then π
All custom deliveries scale all the way to 80
is HoH world based searching or DC?
DC
Datacentre-wide
Cool ,thanks
dnc in a really basic context:
keep standard and tech step on cooldown
keep flourish and devilment on cooldown
press glowy buttons
if no glowy buttons, press Cascade or Windmill
and yes i know there's more to it than that, but that's how to make the job work
how do you get scrips from the timed gathering spots ?
take them to the scrip exchange in the main city
or the collectables appraiser, rather
they will give you scrips
Gather as collectible, meet the minimum collectiblity asked and turn in at the apprasier
oh okay thank you
you'll need to use Collector's Glove for that if you're gathering
!action Collector's Glove
Yep just learned about that like 20 minutes ago when doing the custom deliveries
delete the save file
HoH is until floor 30?
for 31+ you have to be in a premade group
oh i see
those floors are challenge floors, not intended for leveling
Heyo! Uhh anyone knows wut i can do better here?
in HoH what do i do after i get to 99?
you can buy grips for +10/+10 and buy empyrean weapons for glam with them
How to i get rider of the lil flower icon next to my name lmao
thats for returning players only
ah
got you tyty
@faint flare ik but following the rotation kinda f me more?
If you're not hitting max collectiblity following the rotation then your stats arent hitting the requirements they ask
someone already helped me but thanks!
actually my stats are better than the ones required, also cause i have food and buffs
Those are stats before food
okay but even with the current stats i have + food and buffs its not hitting the second collectability thing
Am I allowed to ask here on tips on how to make some gil as botanist ?
@abstract veldt get to 80 on it
but yeah, gatherers don't really make that much gil unless its the start of a patch cycle with new materials
or actuallt
diadem
go to diadem and get stacks of lv 60-80 stuff
you can make decent gil with crafters
sell on mb
even at low levels
Think about what crafts people need atm and supply those, i.e. new patch with raid tier coming out so food + pots will be in high demand, check what mats go to those and gather, that kinda stuff
but it requires you to actually look at the market and see what are in demand
Yeah I am fairly new so i am no expert on market yet
If new patch has new gatherable stuff try to gather that as early as u can, ppl pay stupid amounts for that shit. I made 10m just gathering when 5.3 came out
(the legendary node stuff like tender dill was in 5.3)
Making gil in this game revolves a lot around preparing for patch releases during downtime and capitalizing on that
I am not trying to make too much like 600-700k want to buy the lvl 80 set since i am quite close to lvl 80 on samurai
Hold off on buying the set ?
just spend a few days getting phantasmal tomestones, doing the alliance raids, entering eden and getting gear
you'll be fine
All right then
Thank you
do retainers sell items when you are offline or only online ?
yes, they sell while you're offline
will undersea rain be of any use in getting the coming soon crafted gears?
no
or there will be a new rain?
there won't be one until 5.5, that's when the new crafted gear will be augmentable
oh? takes til 5.5 to be augmentable?
is there any confirmation on what the minimum ilvl will be for the 5.4 savage raids?
yeah, it gets released in even patches and the augmentations get added in the odd patches
but will the new crafted set be better than aug neo-ish still?
yes, but there's also gonna be new weekly-capped tome gear that will be better than the crafted gear
and eden normal is gonna be the same ilvl as crafted
But i take it new tome gears wont be augmentable til 5.5 too?
@maiden plover literally add +30 to all ilvl requirements of eden
Boom, you have the requirements
think it's gonna be like
i510 crafted/eden normal
i520 revelation tome gear
i530 savage drops + upgraded tome gear
Yes
don't know, my assumption is that its gonna be ilv 500 @maiden plover
since its usually 30 less ilv then the gear you get
Normal mode will require 485, savage 500 for first two floors then 505 and 510
well, you can upgrade it with drops from new savage, but if you mean nier coins then yeah, it's gonna be un-augmentable
oh wow, I'm close to BiS, but that would mean I can't get in without crafted gear or tome stuff, I didn't know it was going to be that strict (since this is my first 'new' tier)
just remember that full party ignores ilvl and job requirements
@maiden plover thats why crafted gear is a commodity
To help push you over
so as long as you get a PF party like basically everyone will then ilvl requirement wont gate you from entering
since people wanna get into savage asap
hahaha, sadly I have no gil for crafted gear, I spent everything to get Aesthete crafters
then make it yourself 
Same as crafted
if you have asthetes
Or that
Won't Eden Normal be weekly locked as well?
then you can craft it
true, I just hope I'll be lucky with drops
its gonna be tokens
Just keep running until you wim the roll
weekly
They'll always drop like that
thank you all for the information, it's really helpful
So just roll on the token you want and keep trying until you do
They do, they're not super common in arr but dungeons after do
Remember your class quests, you could be a dragoon now
Most arr dungeons have weapon drops now
ohh thanks and will do
maybe ill buy a wep too, been stuck with a lv 13 lance for a while lol
Lol
hi, quick question: can free trial users receive mail via moogle? iβm hosting an eternal bond ceremony soon and i wanted to give an invitation to a friend on free trial. is it impossible?
you cant send in-game letters
but it doesnt say you cant receive them
also, today is thanksgiving. if u have money you can get the complete version of this game for just 30
anyone knows which chatlog should i tick for "weapon has full spiritbond" message?
is it system message?
hmmm i guess iβll test sending a letter
dam it's indeed system message π€¦ββοΈ
if i take it out as glam will the +99 reset?
what is grip? XD
The items you need to get the glamour
Is there any holiday/special days other than black friday when the game is discounted? Iβm tempted to buy the full game since itβs 50% off but i can probably only play seriously next year
Hello, is there any discord where ppl recruit others for savage raids or trials ?
If you plan to attenot thr higher floors then keep it at 99
The game goes on sale every now and then...usually a few timrs a year
You can buy now on PC and not use the code until later
Just keep the code safe
And not lose it
Was gonna do this but apparently i get to play the first 30 days for free? And i was under the assumption that if i buy now those 30 days will end exactly a month after my purchase... or does it only count the days i DO play the game?
The game doesn't know you own it before you use the code
i think it starts counting as soon as you logi ninto the game
if you're only doing 21-30 of hoh then it almost definitely syncs down to like.. +60/+60 or something (might wanna google around if you want the exact number), so if you dump some aetherpool to buy 2-3 grips you probably won't notice a difference
The free days start after using the code
ah alright thanks
I see, thank you very much!
seriously though i should buy a wep right? or take some quest that gives me one
class quests give weapons
what level is your current one
a lv 23 lance wep
cause below 50 it doesnt really make thaaat much of a difference if you're slightly undergeared
oh yeah then get a new one lol
just a vendor in any city or something
im kinda just waiting on class weps now lol
Its the best star in the game
Have you done your class quests?
story quests give weapons too, dunno how much behind you are though
ive been distracted with dungeons and was hoping for a weapon drop
You should already have a better weapon from the class quests than that
none so far
Can you guys recommend a site or a video for story recap until the end of Heavensward? I wanna get back in to the game but I've forgotten most of the story and need a recap really badly.
They're a priority to do

i plan on buying this game on steam, the shadowbringers bundle.
how does subscription work?
i know that the first month is free
after that is the payment done through the steam wallet? or is it done through some SE site?
it's done through the ffxiv account management site called mogstation, if you buy through steam then you have steam wallet as an additional payment option
the shadowbringer edition will include the other two expansions also right?
yes
It has stormblood and Shadowbringers
HW is free
Starter edition has arr and heavensward. If you're on trial you need starter edition
Ontop of Shadowbringers
Or complete edition
complete is 30 bucks today because of turkey day
is it true that they have removed some of the padding?
They trimmed ARR yes
yes, arr-post is not as long
Down by 20 quests
And importantly, you now get some aetheryte tickets early in the story to go directly to the waking sands, which cuts down a lot of walking as well
Just relog. If you don't have chat or anything you probably have to Alt f4
Just relog is probably easiest
imma task menager it
weird tho cause i can move the camera around and see people moving but i can press ESC, i also don't have access to chat etc..
Did you do the hotkey to hide Ui?
nop cause it doesn't let me move
im just here with my retainer doing idk
I would just close it. Probably a strange bug

How many quests are in the quest chain to unlock the 3 level 70 24 man raids that you have to do, to get into Bozjan?
Not even how many, just.. Is this going to take long or no?
Its not thaaar long...if anything the que times prolong it
Aside from queue times
This was back when 2 weeks in bojan
I would say 1-2hours if not including queuee time and your party knows what they are doing
The last one can be rough
whats the point of the riding maps?
Not much when you get flying
Ground speed increase
It just increases ^
Which is nice if you just want to mount on the ground I guess
ya i like flying
is catgirl the way?
no, lalafell only
I really should have hoped on this when Bozjan was fresh
I know it says "Duty Finder" but could you recruit on Party Finder & have it still complete the quest?
But it will take a while because alliance
I should try to queue for it after daily reset
i can help you queue if you are in elemental server π
@leaden ginkgo yes because you still use the duty finder to que up
maybe try to tick all the language
not sure if it helps since you are in NA
but in EU/JP, ticking all language seems mandatory π
is samurai available in HW or stormblood?
Umm. Anyone know what is happening?
@leaden ginkgo are you on crystal?
Storm
probably bots Haruko
Probably
Bot party
Yeah @leaden ginkgo
@oblique yew as soon as you reached lv 50 and bought the expansion
Why would you use bots
ah try at a later time @leaden ginkgo itβs a little early in America and alliance raids need 23 other people
but since the daily reset happened one hour ago it should be more hopeful now
You farm gil and sell it
Yeah thats what I was counting on, but still no luck
And buy stuff from the market place and resell it for money
are there choices in this game? and do they affect the ending?
Just give it some time :p still really early in America
yeah, but just an immediate dialogue, not long term effect
icic. ty
so you can choose any choice you like π not as serious as pure visual novel game
yep
you can do like side quests to find more out about the areas you are at but canβt really change the ending outcome
Will there be a new relic step in 5.4?
bot party, we are having a bot party in my server too.
yeah, that's what delubrum reginae is for
It is mildly annoying that's for sure
save the queen = relic weapon questline
really? that sucks though, I don't even do bozja because it's always empty.
Guys, I just bought a small plot housing, but why can't I find my friends on the shared estate settings?
Are they originally on your server
No, but they are in the server I'm at right now, and we have each other added in friend list already
If they're world visiting then you cant share a house
oh dang, then is buying the transfer fee the only option for them to share the house??
Yikes!
should've not spend it then!
Thanks for the help!

Anyone want to run a low level dungeon with me? Im new at game running main quests and the dungeons have a high queue time but its much shorter with atleast one other person.
Fastest route to level the 60 to 70 gap?
thats what I figured
no
ex trials dont always drop a mount
sometimes u get trolled even and see 3 drops only for 2 of them to be a PLD weapon 
Dang, so basically have to grind for them?
why is /playtime just not working for me
video showing what happens
or well, what doesnt happen
because literally nothing happens
try /ptime
also nothing
System messages turned on?
probably disabled system messages in the chat tab then
Yku probably have the message disabled in chat settings
where is it here

roulettes and highest dungeon possible
gubal normal/roulettes to 61 then spam hoh 21-30
Are these the correct 24 man alliances you need to finish in order to enter Bozjan?
This might be a little controversial, but I think I need to ask it to cover my bases.
So when Arthars got suspended during his stream was that because he committed a violation while playing the game? Cuz my friend wants to stream and saw that clip and is asking if she could also get in trouble for that.
Don't cause witch hunts. Don't shame people for DPS. Dont be a dick, and you're fine.
yes, but you need to complete the whole questline including the final sidequest that's not even a blue quest afaik, not just the 24man duties
Ahh okay, ty
Big combination of things. He committed a violation, it was reported in-game
Okay, so I don't wanna relay any wrong info to my friend so just so I get this straight: He committed a violation, it wasn't in-game, BUT he was streaming the game, it was reported in-game and the GMs had to take action.
So, as long as she's not directly calling anyone out, she should be clear to ran about things?
Yah just dont be an asshat
And don't do copyright infringing things
Blur names/use the initials setting and cover chat too if you really want
Anyone ever struggle with Square Enix store purchases?
I want to dip my toe into EXs, what is a good EX to start with?
Start with the most current, most relevant Ex and start a learning party.
Is that SoS?
Yes
Yes
cool thanks

i have been playing on the free trial version and now that i have bought it on steam how can i show the new game where are the files
because the free trial and the game are diffirent things on steam
it says install but i already have it installed
the standalone version and the steam version are completely separate
if you buy it on steam, you can't buy it standalone, etc.
i have been playing the one on the 2nd
on steam?
yes
yes

when i try to install it stays idle
you need to install the full version. You cannot use the free trial version anymore.
it's worth a shot but it should be able to download normally without doing that
yeah since you already have bought the game there's no need for you to have the free trial anymore
Have you registered the game to mogstation
oh that too
!faq mogstation
squeenix ffxiv account management
Its the ffxiv account management website
basically your account management website
If your account doesnt have licenses registered it won't upgrade the free trial launcher automaticallu
i mean, im not sure how it works with steam
Which would explain why you're not getting any response from steam
When you attempt install the full game
i see
i just registered both cd keys
ill try again
so yeah
now i should delete the free trial version?
and redownload all again?
i havent
But its whatever now
There's a lot of data to prep
aw
it should find the game by itself right
There's this Aether Current in Fort Jobb, it's on a wall, how do I get to it?
Climb above it and jump down onto it
If its the one on the ruined house theres a way to climb iirc
Yeah it's the ruined house one, got it, you have to climb up a hole in one of the nearby walls.
When I am doing a MSQ can I finish it with my main class and turn it with my lv 1 alt?
is there a keybind that lets me target always the closest enemy?
@celest inlet no
or at least to reset my target selection cycle?
there's a setting that automatically targets the closest enemy iirc
Gotta be same level as quest to turn it in
thanks
in character config > control > target
does anyone have a good guide for BLU?
!faq bluguide
I love that the first carnival guide in some parts is just "stab the plant to death"
I have a question, if i bought ffxiv in ps4, and i want to make an account for my gf, can i just pay her a sub or i need to re buy the game for her psn too if we are using the same system?
I am asking, 15 usd or 60 usd for my gf to play on my ps4 in her own account
Ps4 links your PSN to your 14 account. If she wants to play on her own account she would need the game herself
Probably cancel and restart at this point
nvm
I had this problem for a long time and had it finally figured out. So I decided to share the information in case someone have the same issue. SITUATION I've downloaded the TRIAL VERSION and started playing the game until I decided to buy the FULL VERSION. After doing that, Steam automatically got rid of the "Final Fantasy XIV Online Free Trial" ...
this helped me
now it downloads the extra files :3
Is it possible to play both gamepad and mouse/keyboard at once for PC?
I do it. Use the controller for combat and the keyboard for chat. Mouse is useful when market boarding and retainer updating
That's what I do as well for PC
And switching classes with some UI macros I found online
Problem with playing on controller is i don't have access to ready check or waymarks
put it on a hotbar
Waymarks yeah I use mouse but ready check you just click start and it's in the settings just 3-4 clicks away
Or yeah, you can put it on a hotbar.
That works too; this half is for skills/spells while the other half is for ready check, waymarks, emotes, etc
Id suggest looking up macros for collapsing UI hotbars. It gives you so much space to basically build your ui
Takes a while to set up but well worth it
Then you're not taking up space from your combat hotbars
how do i jump without flying
If I can memorize the macros well, then yeah
Go to the control settings and change it so flight is double jump
how many thavnairan onions do I need in total to level my chocobo to level 30?
I think it was 12 but I am not too sure
so 10 onions?
Yes
π
Guys how to earn Gils? Just roulettes if i don't have any crafting job? This step for the Zodiac relic will blast my wallet
Treasure maps can make you alot if you're lucky. Buy Zonureskin maps and run them in a map group
Make millions if you're lucky with mat drops and how many portals you get
Along with miscellaneous crafting mats to sell and the gil from chests
selling deepshadow mats
That too
Though i would save phastmagoria to convert to allegory to buy the new crafting mats
Where do you get thav onions
Can u buy if them off mb
Yes but usually expensive
U need a house to grow them right
Yes cause the seeds are from cross breeding
You can also get two free onions from two HW sidequests, "Landing a Stable Job" and "A Hunter's True Nature"
I assume the answer is "no", but is there anything you can do to boost the drop rate of skins from mobs?
Thanks for the tips guys

other than that you increase your kill speed and thats really all you can do
Phastmagoria mats
check your mb
are the numbers on the wiki for the anima light farming correct?
Bleh retainers are one step too low to hunt what I need...they are 73, the skin I need is 77
so it's hunt or MB
Cerberus you mean materials like: Multifaceted and so on?
Or i'm checking the wrong page?
Can I present myself for fashion report multiole times?
And do I get mgp every time?
I see theres like 4 remaining
You only get gp once
dried hi ether, tempest adhesive, caprice fleece, dwarven chromite, etc @finite trout
Hmm do points accumulate if I do multiple time then?
no, it only takes the highest
But if you do pass the 80 limit the first time, then you grt the additional 50k if you didn't pass it before this week
Max is 60k a week
Mgp, ok what about fashion points?
10k for showing up, 50k for hitting 80
it only takes the highest amount of points you gained for the week
if you get 100pts every week
Ok thanks
8 if you do bare min of 80pts
Oh I guess I have to do a lot more before I can get then
But Ill have them, sooner or later
Is there some sort of page that shows what all the crafting quests (at least for CUL) need? I got a level 50 (soon to be 60) CUL, and I need to do the job quests, So I'd rather just prepare all the ingredients beforehand so I can mass turn in.
oo just from lv 50
Yeah, just up to 50 for now.
