up to you
allegory is going to be uncapped anyway
beat SB
no, its not like heavensward
icic
HW is the exception
correct
Does it matter if I pick between Light or Chaos as Eu player in terms of physical location?
beat the main scenario quest "Stormblood"
they're both in the same location so no difference @leaden ginkgo
Nice
is there gonna be a new crafted set after patch next week
yes, there's going to be a new crafted combat set
so will neo-ishgardian gear
drop in price quickly you know
or gradually
theyre like 40k gil per piece in my server right now
patch is in 2 weeks
Its already low, it will kinda be redundant next patch due to new crafted gesr
normal
hard is a lvl 60 dungeon, which doesn't give good exp
o.o
So I just unlocked Samurai. Is my rotation supposed to be setting up Gekko, using Iaijutsu to put on the dot, setting up Kasha, and then spamming Hakaze-Yukikaze until I need to refresh the buffs or have enough stickers for Midare? The non-English skill names aren't helping a lot.
your rotation is get 1 sticker, use higanbana, get 3 stickers, use midare
Then you.put up Jinpu then use the dot, before finishing the combo and building sen again for midare
each combo finisher is connected to a specific sticker
so basically use whichever combo grants me a sticker I don't have?
Yes
you prioritize some combos
spamming yukikaze will just not give you any more stickers other than the one you already have
https://youtu.be/UWqpRCDDEpY?t=811 Look from this timestamp. He'll explain it in detail for you.
Point of note: I did not emphasize putting up buffs at the start of a dungeon enough. While the tank is pulling enemies, you have time to do single target attacks while the tank group's allies up. Just be wary of your aggro and spread your hits across all of the enemies until everything is grouped, then AoE away.
New? Got too many skills? Have ...
yeah flower first
Video will explain why you do each skill in which order. But basically, you put Kasha first because it makes your GCD faster
So the earlier it comes out, the better.
ty!
jinpu increases dmg
obviously there are exceptions but generally yes, shifu first
this is a bigger headache than trying to figure out blm aoe after leveling up
blm aoe is simple
not when it changes every like 5 levels
It's really simple to figure out SAM once you get some practice in
WeskAlbers video helped me out a lot with getting the rhythm in
so Party Finder works for the Bozja Castrum?
That getting hit by enemies won't cancel your cast
i see thx
the main function of surecast is preventing knockback/draw-in effects though
it's pretty rare that you use it to prevent casting interruption from damage
i figured
how do you unlock the skies the limit quest?
finish post ARR
ohh the msq after ultima weapon?
yes
ok
does bard have peloton at 50
sure does, it's a cross role skill available at level 20
how do you get champion lance for the gae bolg
Craft or market board
how do you craft it?
Lv50 carpenter
frontline roulette isnt showing up for me and talking to the gc fliers just brings up the tutorial for it 
ok thx

Since I already have ShB for PC, do I have to buy Complete Edition or just ShB for a PS4?
both starter and shadowbringers
Kk
thats the same thing
it's not the same thing
their names are different
one was tank one was str dps
crit isn't necessarily better than dh
but it won't make much of a difference
you could just use both of them
so tank gear is also good for melee dps gear?
cuz i assume one is for tank
and the other one is for melee dps
but im not sure which one is which
old tank accessories can be equipped by str dps, and vice versa
they used to only have VIT and not STR on them, but later added the STR
skyraider is for tanks, warrior is for melee dps but it doesn't matter at this point
since you can equip both
and they have stats that you can make use of
higher levels they restrict who can wear what
if it had tenacity, i'd be a little more keen on saying don't use the tank one but it doesn't so
mmhmm
id go with crit for drg but it doesnt matter much
could be the dh one is a bit stronger, too. But you won't realistically feel any bit of difference using one over the other
why is that alot of the tank gear you get from ARR also says LNC DRG
because that's an even older design decision
they just had some tanky DRG gear, probably partially because they had lower def/mdef, or could otherwise fill in as a pseudo-tank with that gear. 1.x and early ARR were a bit weird
I'd believe it. But since you're not really looking to focus on defense it's whatever
how long would it take to get 18k wolf marks
that's also ignoring challenge log
^
which you'll probably get atleast 2 of them done so should be a little bit less realistically
that's also assuming you lose every roulette
Or alternatively if you win the roulette and every round after it
Its 17 matches in one day
Before challenge logs again
A (silly) question, but a question none the less. Will I be beaten for not using a apostrophe in my catboi's last name?
no
that's just if you want to adhere to lore
which most don't, unless you wanna RP or something
also it's first name, not last
Oh, Gotcha. Friend told me its on a last name basis.
well depends on which clan you're making
Name yourself whatever as long as its not inappropriate
Okay! Wasn't expecting to get such serious answers but thanks for the assistance anyway. I love lore so this helped me.
Elezen
Both the Wildwood and Duskwight Elezen are proud clans from a proud race. The forenames and surnames used by them have changed little since the time when they first crossed into Eorzea from the north. However, over the ages, due to bad blood between the two tribes, the surnames once commonly used by both, have b...
if you wanna read more about the naming conventions
where would blu's power be in line with the other jobs? just curious
wym power
blue >>>> everything else
so it depends?
for the anima weapon, is it possible to get multiple luminous crystals for stocking up purposes?
hi, im planning to start as a Astrologist,
am I fucking myself by doing that?
Yes
Sadly, FFXIV complete edition are completely out from all stores. Does PS5โs PS store has a digital version of FFXIV?
@native frigate no
cool, thanks
ff14 is on the ps store
Can also store the result astral and umbral crystales to save space too
oh maybe that's why blu is a limited job. if done right it could be more op than blm, smn and sam
it should be
blu is a limited job because you can either be completely dead weight or incredibly op based on what spells you have
!action missile
Deals damage equal to 50% of target's current HP.
Chance of successful attack is low. Has no effect on enemies whose level is higher than your own.
A magical imitation of warmachina technology, this technique allows the user to fire a barrage of aetherial missiles. When efficaciousโwhich, bear in mind, is not guaranteedโit sends a shock through the foe that appears to resonate more the greater their vitality.
Enkidu / Battle in the Big Keep
Type: Magic
Aspect: None
Rank: 4
hit this twice and the target is dead
You cant start as astrologian it requires that given character to be in heavensward to unlock
Also one thing I need to confirm, can physical PS5 can still digital download games?
Kk thanks!
alrighty
Is there any point to doing levelling roulette and/or 50/60/70 dungeon roulette after you've already gotten the daily reward? Like is the xp worth it, or should I just do the highest level dungeon I have available instead?
adventurer in need bonus is generally not worth it, so once you've done your roulettes for the day
should do the highest level dungeon (barring 50/60/70 dungeons)
doing the roulette again is basically just like queueing for whatever dungeon you get normally
Generally it's not worth doing daily roulettes more than once a day
Noted, thank you guys
In new trials, dots don't hurt bosses while invuln correct?
Heavensward Hildibrand is post-HW story right?
Anyone know how I can get to the green tick? Teleporters confusing me to hell ๐
Yes

@leaden ginkgo use the teleporters at x19 y12, then x38 y12, and then x27 y33
Thatโll get you to the 4th island
Thank you! ๐ I am sooo lost ๐๐๐
what do the flowers by people's names mean?
different server than you
they mean they are from other worlds
ah
can anyone help me arrange my astrologians skills for my hotbar? i switched from ps4 to pc and i am LOST
@mighty valley #protips-and-ui
thanks sorry about that
Where do I get rid of old gear?
You can sell it to npc vendors
Dungeon gear can be traded in to your grand company for seals
You join one of those at like, level 20 or 25
You could be like me and just stuff your retainers full of old worthless gear
What're those?
I forget when you unlock retainers, but they act as item storage
I forget if they're tied to the main quests
they're unlocked when you join the scions of the seventh dawn
I just got to the envoy part
which is lvl 17 in the main scenario quest
Is it better to get all the jobs right now or later?
Thereโs no inherent advantage to having multiple/all jobs unlocked
I'd wait until you get at least one job to level 50, it'll make leveling other jobs easier
Ok
except you get a mount if you do them all
You get your first mount when you join a grand company
you have sprint
Just keep doing the main quests and you'll start getting the cool stuff
Go to the general section of your actions and grab it from there if you did remove it
For console
go to actions and traits > general
!action sprint
Noooo fking way
....thanks kupo
Been walking all game :(

Thanks
there's also the chocobokeepers
that are like short bus rides in between destinations
also there's aetheryte teleporting
both of which are a small gil cost
I used those
what do the Allagan Aetherstones do and should I use them?
they're used for crafting the replica coil gear
what's that?
they're dyeable versions of the binding coil gear
what do i do with these?
they've been sitting in my inventory forever
im wondering if i can just get rid of them
they are allagan aetherstones btw
either toss them or if you have crafters level you can use them to craft the coil replica gear
what level crafters?
Use them to craft dyeable gear, itโs a master recipe
do you guys think it would be faster to spam POTD 51-60 or dungeons for levelling tank 30-50?
dungeons
if you are leveling tank, just do dungeons
PotD is only faster because of instant queue times
tanks don't have that issue anyway
alright
unless you also want to level up your aethergear
so u can do other things
then PotD
oh nah thats maxed, was just curious on the efficiency
whats the most popular server/active one?
All of them
may i asking, currently im using trial version of final fantasy xiv. if i bought the completed version of final fantasy xiv. Could i still playing the game like i used in demo version ?
Thanks
Everything is well positioned
ohh okie
@grim forge if yoy dont input the code given you can stay on the trial. Once you put the code in you're no longer on the trial
so if i'm not ready to go up to 60 its better to stay on trial ?
and then what about the code. is that have an expiration date?
It doesn't
Is there a guide or anything on how I can get geared up ASAP as a fresh 80? Im trying to get to a point I can do the 5.4 stuff as close to its release as possible.
You can use it whenever you're ready to upgrade
For fresh 80: quick way buy HQ neo ishgardian
its auto applied i think if your om ps4 tho
Long way: get ilvl for eden and nier raids and run those for gear for upgrades. Get phastmagoria tomes on the side for additional pieces
as pld, why would i ever use rage of halone when goring blade does more?
@faint flare Thank you for the answer! the discount seems worth one.. but i heard its gonna reach 6.0 soon..
Can someone walk me through what I need to buy to transfer my trial account to the full game and get the black friday deal? ๐ ๐
Estimated autumn
i gotta ask...how is the inventory management in this game so bad? It incentivizes you to do multiple crafting classes but then punishes you for hording crafting mats. (and also punishes you for trying to sell them on the market)
Simple: dont horde mats...once you pass a level range you rarely need those mats again...and you can easily get stuff back
Level things evenly so you dont have a wide level range of mats
@faint flare Is there a short way?
it also doesn't treat inventory tabs as separate. So if you want to transfer an item quickly from your inventory to your retainer or vice versa you can't right click twice because it goes to the first available slot and not the first slot on the tab you're looking at
Buy neo ishgardian
how do I start a duty with the party finder?
currently have a party but i dont know how to start the duty we have come together for
do races have an affect on classes? like fo their stats differ like other mmos
ahh....
No
No Eifing
anyone knows this ;;
I think I didnt check undersize party
.
you don't
the gap between 54-60 its better to use goring blade and overwrite the dot
The time between Goring and Royal authority is weird
Just live with it for 6 levels and spam goring
i am level 61
is it a skill or what?
its the reward for your lv60 job quest
i saw this in chat but later realized it was an area i can't access yet (i'm still in the post-ARR patches), does anyone know of something similar happening in an area i could go to?
those are player run events
what you can do is you can add someone who as access to that house as a friend
and teleport to their estate
oh! okay, i'll see if i can do that!
Or if your FC has a house in Shirogane you can port there via that way then ward hop
why should one subscribe monthly if you can play the whoel game for free?
also you don't have major online features
Which is easier and better solo for becoming a dancer at 60, Monk or Ninja?
All jobs can do solo content fine
easier in general is monk
also neither of those are like dancer
not that it matters anyway
Wynne, you know people generally hate that answer, right?
along with "the best class is the one you like the most"
what do you want us to say
An actual opinion
theyre both on the same level
nin is better but theyre very similar
also a "best class" opinion is going to vary wildly and you'll end up with everyone saying all classes are the best class
in terms of "being good"
im stuck on what to get the shadowbringers collectors ed or complete ed is there a big difference?
shadowbringers collectors is ONLY the expansions and some digital items
complete is starter + shadowbringers

oo okay thanks so if i wanted collectors i would also have to buy the starter
yes
and the shadowbringers collectors only gives you the digital items for shadowbringers iirc
it doesnt give you the other expansions' collectors items
it doesn't let me use the "creed armor coffer" saying i already have the armor
but in inventory i have nothing
do /isearch
okay thank you so much
Discard the belt
Assuming you have another level 60 tank set itโs the fabled belt thatโs the issue
How often is ff14 on mog station 50% off? is it just because black friday or does it happen often?
Rarely
Im a level 54 dragoon (But i been playing for a while at my own pace) and i know staying free trial is more beneficial
Iโve rarely seen at 50%
So kinda sucks seeing the game half off
Im on pc
How long can i hold the code?
Probably wont use that for the next 6 months lol
Forever
I'm gonna start tanking in main scenario roulette, but I dont remember the exact way for castrum meridianum, because it has a lot of ways. Do you have a map with route indications?
Is shadowbringers only worth $10 ?
shadowbringers is normally 40 USD
Im gonna be tank, so everyone will follow me, I did it today with a friend who is a tank too, he didn't remember the way too well and we got a wipe
yep, today was me and my friend
my bad full game is 29 right now, shadow bringers is 19, only a $10 gap
is there anyhting unique you can get at the golden saucver before it goes away?>
cosmetic i guess
I dont think all dps and healers know the way, my friend leaded today and did some wrong turns and everyone followed
I just dont wanna make 7 more people waste time
@long field if you mean the seasonal event only the emote from the quest

Maybe also the 3 new mini game machines?
Not sure if those got added to the standard shop
research factory has no loot? :d
?
the one where you fight asican prime
when i change my resolution to full screen it looks blurry on 1440p 144hz
even though my monitor is that resolution
and when i go into windowed it sets to 1280x720p :( and nothing looks stretched but the quality isnt good ;(
what about borderless windowed
how does divine veil work?
Puts a buff on you. If you're healed, it pops a shield on you and anyone near you.
when you get healed it puts a barrier up
ye
wait nvm lmao i was picking the wrong resolution i thought i picked the eight one for full screen
pre pull
generally when there's a raid wide happening
prepull is often a waste unless there's a particularly early raidwide. And even then it's usually overkill
oh i'm thinking of savage
my response still very much holds true for savage
a lot of savage bosses have raidwides in the beginning?
usually the healers are going to prepull shield (assuming ast/sch)
So doing divine veil + ast/sch shield is overkill
Depends on the heaviness of the raidwide and whether it's gonna be needed until it comes back up imo
much more frequently than not you end up not doing prepull veil, is my point
can usually find better use elsewhere for it, with the amount of prep and stuff you can toss at any early raidwides, if they even exist early enough for prepull veil to catch
maybe our pld needs to do some learning then
depending on what you're doing it's not necessarily going to be bad or anything, of course
but it's not simply a "prepull veil is always the strat" kind of thing
Trying to get a specific FATE to pop up for a hunt and I've done the surrounding ones to speed it up but there's no more FATES on the map to start/join.. Do I just wait?
Yes
pretty much, you could also try server hopping to see if its up on other servers
but that ofc comes with the risk of it popping on your server while you're hopping ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Oh right you are,
Lmao XD
how long would it take to farm the entire yokai event from the start
assuming lv80
probably a day if you buckled down
well that might be a bit too generous
but a couple of days at most really, the rng is a lot a lot better than last time
I personally farmed it fully from 0 to all in like 2-3 days
that's not TOO bad
Rng be rng
would the triceratops mount still be there once theres a new expansion
yes
for the most part they don't remove achievements, barring cross over event type stuff like GARO
ah cool
so i have problems trying to stay connected to specifically FFXIV but if its anything else like chrome, modern warfare, or even siege I stay connected
like FFXIV will periodically and consistantly force me out of the game for no reason
how do i make that not happen?
soo i got the key for the full ed of the game but i have the game downloaded from free trial do i have to re download or can i jsut activate it
you download the dlc
@clear sequoia do you have latency or any other issues in those games other than actual disconnects
no, i have zero lag what so ever and it suddenly cuts me off as if i was @hasty musk
but it only happens in FFXIV
are you using wifi
yes
try connecting to your router directly with an ethernet cable and see if that fixes it
its weird cause I'll be playing and everything is keeping up with pace i'll use shake it off everybody gets the effect then BOOM it says "connection with server was lost"

hello guys can i ask?
i tried creating a square enix account with my 3 emails. all of them got the code but after putting it i get an error
what code
do alliance raids give good exp?
confirmation code
@manic flare the roulette does. The raid itself... Not really
What're guilds and fcs for?
Free Company (FC for short) is guild
They are for... Whatever a guild is for: social interaction, finding teammates for different contents, working on guild projects, etc
is there other NPC for custom delivery in HW content outside of Zhole? (or Khole, I forgot)
hey guys i managed to link my steam account on square enix but i dont know my password. and i bought the game 
reset it?
i mean i cant reset if i joined squere enix thought linking my steam
i tried to reset it but it says i already sent an email and have to wait 24 hours
who is immune to magic and physical in void ark?
adkiragh is in idyllshire as a custom delivery NPC but his unlock quest requires lvl 66
also requires you to have completed a side quest in azim steppes (stormblood zone)

@honest cedar free weddings dont give minions
i know this is probably a very unique and weird question. Does anybody know why using on a controller on pc flying my mount just feels weird. everything else feels exactly the same as when i fly mounts on console. and i uploaded character data and downloaded it?
what do you mean it feels weird
like the camera likes to slide. but it doesnt do that when im on the ground or actually playing. might just need to mess or look into settings more
are you using a different control scheme
it should all be the same. tomorrow ill probably go and just take video off all the settings to confirm.
i might have figured it out the enable camera effects when initiating actions had character turn speed camera a lot higher and since mounts can turn fast the camera just moved weird.
after i finished ARR is it wise if i wanna lvl up another job or should finish heavensward before?
sync'd dungeon gives less exp than normal one?
like castrm albanian lv 69 but sync'd
??
Lvl 69
ilvl sync'd sorry
Ilvl sync has nothing to do with exp reward
@teal dragon up to you
ah ok ty ty
If Byakko goes below 60% before roar writhe rage and despawns, does the add immediately go into the DPS check? Aka if we can't kill while skipping, is it overall faster to just let Byakko despawn?
Just a reminder: lvl 50/60/70 dungeons are no good for exp
If you are right on these levels, you want the lvl 47/59/69 dungeons
ok
yeh just making sure hehe
๐
that castrum is lv 69 but has ilvl sync'd sign like the 70's dungeon
best way to lvl up is to spam duty finder right
!faq altlvlguide
Tldr: roulette (once per day) and dungeons are the best for exp yield for the time required. However, depending on queue time, DPS jobs might prefer HoH/POTD/Bozja
is Alexander raid MSQ-related?
not yet anw
hmm kinda but just a side story explaining the story much later on
none of the raids are really msq related except CT
how do you change companions?
the one you can summon along to fight
put behemoth barding ๐
Hi, can someone in Crystal help me and some friends create a party for free trial?
Find the person for the quest is so confusing :( Iโm a marauder and the starting quests have been painful idek where to go for them unless i spend too much time searching the map, is there any better way to find where im suppose to go?
So when will they release detailed patch notes for 5.4? Are they just on the day themselves or do they ever release them earlier?
Click the quest on your screen and it'll open up the map where they are
Unless it's one of those quests that leave a giant orange circle, in which case you are supposed to kinda just find them on your own.
Thank you!
When do the patch notes come ?
Iirc preliminary patch notes (don't have numbers) are on the Friday preceding the patch
Question
I just got a new roulette (expert)
Ive been level 80 for a while
I played today and i didnt had it
But now i have this?
U get it after unlocking the 2 other 80 dungeons
You unlock expert when you hit max level. You will need to be current in story dungs in order to use it. Mostly used to farm tomes
Specifically Anamnesis Anyder and Heroes' Gauntlet so u might have unlocked those 2 recently
Not sure then. I unlocked mine immediately after i unlocked those 2
I'm doing the quest Taint Misbehaving
and it's frustrating how the Dullahan group on you as WHM
Anyone tips on beating it without getting clubbed to death while your spells keep getting interrupted?

I want to get into the game, but i won't have time to play it for a while (a month or so). Can i buy it now and activate it later or will there be a similar sale on Christmas?
you can activate it later yes but theres no need to buy it now. you can wait for sales.
alternatively, play the free trial first
then buy the game when its on sale
free trial has no timelimit
It's on sale now, looks like a good price, that's why i was considering buying it now. Not sure how often it get this discout.
I played it for a bit at launch and in 2016 and i liked it, but stuff happened and i didn't stick to it.
Some good people helped me out ๐
Hi. What materia is most important at gathering? Doesn't matter?
Gathering increase the success rate
Perception increase the chance to get High Quality
GP is how many Mana you have to perform gatherer skills
For max level Gatherer, Perception is more is better. Gathering/GP just need to hit specific efficiency breakpoints. (this is an oversimplification)
If you are still leveling, gathering is better because you want to succeed at getting stuff
If your gear is updated to your level
Most things are 100%
Gathering is a bit better for leveling and exp gain
But perception makes the job quests a lot easier and you gain 5 levels so fast
sorry, not sure if glamour identification questions can go here but what are the head and body pieces worn here? https://twitter.com/mement_meto/status/1332586463100166144
The head is vaguely familiar. Not online atm but I think it's a weaver craftable item for aiming
Twinsilk hood maybe...?
Nope
star velvet hood of casting
republican signifiers whatever of casting
from pvp
CHITON
Right

I thiiiiink a shared model is available for aiming
I remember looking around in my crafting log the other day

Right

I meant gathering materia for endgame. So perception and GP / gathering till certain breakpoints?
how far am i from heavensward?
hello everyone ! im trying to get started in FF14 but i cent even download the game !!
downloaded the largest amoung of the game but on patch is giving me big troubles now. tried changing DNS , turning off firewall etc. nothing works
always the same error
What is the error?
[30413][25008][20495][20495]
@teal dragon about 71 quests
WHAT????
But there is one in English for sure
You're at the end of the first of five (and a half) post-ARR patches of MSQ
@burnt spire Is there anything else? Text? Error messages?
The story definitely ramps up as you go
@gritty oracle just says somethin like " cant download [30413][25008][20495][20495]"
2.1, which you're almost done with, is fairly uneventful and a little fillery
Post ARR is a huge slog
Just bear with it
Eh, the degree of slog it is is overstated
and i have tried EVERYTHING
One Google search later

Are you on wifi, and if so have you tried a wired connection?
no i havent tried
Unfortunately that error message is generic and can have a wide variety of causes
Tbh I recommend just nuking the entire thing and starting over from scratch
maybe square enix should fix that
I remember a while back there was this huge issue and nobody could log in unless they used a VPN
It's not really a problem on SE's end
It's a problem with the connection being interrupted or deemed unsecure, and the cause can be either in your home network or along your ISP's route.
Does Odin appear during/after a certain weather condition like Proto Ultima or is there no telegraph to finding him other than the area he shows up in being dark and foggy
when he spawns the weather will turn into "levin" or something
Would this website https://skywatcher.plus/ be able to predict it or nah?
Final Fantasy XIV - Weather forecast for Hydaelyn
Isn't Levin for Ixion?
I believe so
theyre both stingy boys
Quick Levin is Ixionโs weather
thats what i said
Royal Levin for the Coeurlregina FATEs in the Dravanian Forelands
What does Coeurlregina give?
How many "Dragonsong main scenaio quests" are there
Horns exchangeable for some goofy glamour
Ah
!iglam spotted Spencer
Ah, already got those from an irregular tomestone event.
oh yeah its the pimp glam

@lone zephyr Like 3.1-3.3? I'd assume around 30-ish
I'm sorry I have no idea about the patches I started playing less than 3 months ago
It's fine
theres an image with all the quest numbers but i dont have it
oh i honestly just wanna know how many quests i have to do till i get to SB
i just finished HW
Around 50 ish MSQ
Do i get it right CC-skills like Samurai's stun do not work on bosses in terms of CC but still do interrupt some of their non-scripted casts like casting voidzone?
if they havent changed the post HW quests it should be 44
I want to say 1 trial and 5 dungeons to go
!faq interrupt
@tame magnet
oh nice at least it's not 100
none of the post quests are 100
But my skill is called Leg Sweep
That inflicts Stun, which is different from Interrupt
Stun usually doesn't work on bosses
Stun doesn't work on most bosses outside of A Realm Reborn.
It also has diminishing returns if used repeatedly on enemies that it does work on.
I mean last boss from Haunter Manor... I casted stun and cancelled her voidzone, but there is a chance some ranged dps pressed interrupt at that time
After being stunned multiple times, enemies will build up resistance and become immune for a period
Then it was just parallel cast two times in a row, okay thanks for clearing this out
I've had to mandatorily stun exactly one thing ever since ARR
And it's in the current endgame raids
farming fates means i have to manually interrupt bosses by myself 
Where can we ask class specific questions?
here is fine, or in the role lounge
role lounge is mostly dead
I am playing a thaumaturge and I am not sure if I have to stand in melee range to mobs in dungeons since Blizzard II's range is 0y? In the class quests they've mentioned more than once that as a thaumaturge should always stay in the back..
Blizzard II sucks and you won't be using it for long.
as a caster just stay near the party anyway
!faq blmleveling
uhh does anyone know the fastest heavensward dungeon to unsync farm for gc seals?
Yeah I never bother with Blizzard 2 if my leveling roulette puts me in a low enough duty
Sohm Al or Aery depending on how fast you can do them
ok thanks
Blizzard 2 is only worth it at 4+ enemies
Maybe also Dusk Vigil if you can kill the first boss super fast
@jade quartz in that screenshot, I don't really understand what F1 and T1 is
F# = Fire 1-4
T# = Thunder 1-4
B# = Blizzard 1-4
I see, thank you very much!
I seem to be unable to join the 50/60/70 dungeon roulette
I get the following message
did you scroll down to read the duty requirements
what's your item level
Yes, my item level is 48
relog then
What are the level 50 dungeons you have unlocked
chances are you only meet the requirements for one of them
by the way, do your level 50 job quest and open the coffer you get with it
it's a set of i90 job gear which should boost up your item level enough to get around most of these issues
Alright, I reequipped most of my stuff with the stuff from the coffer. Hopefully that'll do the trick
Does Gyr Abania not count as a stormblood area? got Damona out and did 10 fates without a medal
do you have any recommended video guides for new players
@merry umbra i dont have video guides i can recommend but i got some text guides if you wanted those
sure ๐
there is a lot to take in though, has been a bit of a struggle to understand everything
!faq newplayertips
You can read this meanwhile
@fierce cobalt Gyr Abania areas are Stormblood areas yes. It's just RNG
other than that, if you go search on youtube "ffxiv beginner guide" some stuff should pop up but the quality is gonna vary. you want the stuff created 2019 or later cause thats the current expansion
You can check out #resources too
We try to keep those updated
There should be a new and returning players section
o ya forgot that was a thing, thats a good resource for websites for specific things too
whats the estiamted drop rate for yokai medals?
ty guys ๐
25-30%, but its rng so you might go 10+ without
ah ok, thought it was 50%, im less mad now
after which quest do i unlock ishgard restoration?
Litany of peace?, I think i read that somewhere
just asking to make sure
Litany of Peace, yeah

anyone here who might have a Discord for Bozja ( Chaos data center ) ;O ?
Do ephemeral nodes not show up with truth of forests ?
Nope
Makes sense then was wondering why I wasnt getting any even though I am looking at garland tools
legendary nodes also dont show ?
does anyone know if you havve to use your relic weapon to get the items from overworld fates?
for resistance weapons
you donโt need to use relic weps
just have the quest active, it can be on any job
sweet
are Void Ark series required for further contents
Void Ark questline is not required for any content except itself
Anyone know why I can't dismount? I'm in the nadaam duty and for some reason I just can't dismount, tried using the skill, tried removing the mounted buff ):
Tried relogging too, doesn't help
does ixion fate spawn on its own? or do i have to do a quest to unlock it for myself first?
It spawns on its own as a hidden FATE in thr lochs
You can join in whenever just like a FATE
Its similar to odin in ARR or coeurlregina in HW
Hidden because it doesnt show up in the zone map
You have to fly or walk over it
There will be unique weather in the zone when it spawns
Ixion is quicklevin iirc
if i understand correctly, it spawns every 36-72 hours? with no way to know more accurately?
Nope hidden timer
It almost always spawns after tuesday maintenance
Since nobody can kill it during maintenance
do you know how many people are needed to beat it?
Uhhh the least amount i did it with is about 15 people and we barely beat the FATE timer.
You also need a item to make ixion vulnerable but just one person needs to use it
ye i have the item but was afraid of that number
If you just shout it in the NN or PF. Im sure people will show up
How do I go about joining the novice network. Haven't come across a Mentor to ask for access just yet.
I did it like 30 minutes before servers shut down for shadowbringers. Else there would be lots of people.
Try just shouting in the 3 cities
There should a mentor around
I'll give it a.. shout.. ๐
Iโll try xD
How many hours of bozja will I need to hit cap from 72 with nin approximately?

I am currently lvl 75 botanist should I buy the 74 set or wait for lvl 80 ?
You can wait for 80
I did 70 to 80 using 70 yellow script set.
Just do custom, mean,collectibles. You should level fast.
Yeah i actually bought the yellow scrip set since its more affordable and better than my current gear
I dont know if this is the place to ask, can i get more people to queue for The dancing plague trial? ;_; been in queue as a tank for 30 minutes, want to progress MSQ
hi anyone know if I can lose the mentor symbol?
You can not wear it if you dont want to
how can I hide it?
the yellow gather scrip gear can also be used for miner right ?
thanks
Cept weapon of course
I might as well buy the full set then so I can use it on my miner when I get around leveling it up
@frozen sky itโs still pretty early in the morning. Youโll have more luck in a few hours
Yeah early weekends are not populated
Who do you trade clusters to in Bozjan?

so I should do any quests with a + right?

Yeah for the most part.
You can skip the
s that unlock classes and jobs, until such a time as you feel like you want to play that job.
looks slightly different
@leaden ginkgo I donโt remember their exact name but theyโre one of the NPCs in the main Bozja camp near the striking dummies
That's an objective for a quest in progress.
Blue icon = passive mob
the shape of the icon is sort of meant to indicate its relative strength, but it's applied kind of arbitrarily and is basically useless info
That's an enemy that needs to be killed for a quest you currently have
ty
so this on the side I assume means aggressive
and on top the little gold symbol?
another type of objective?
thats the hunting log symbol
that enemy is target you can kill to fill your hunting log
wait if someone else aggros a mob and then it deaggros it just goes invulnerable :/
That's "leashing" yeah
one more... am I going crazy or is it about dodging circles not attacks if that makes sense
Yes
If you're in the orange area at the time it disappears, then you're registered as being hit by the area-of-effect attack.

I went ahead and bought the complete game
but holding off activating until I level up a bit
Are there more long/ponytail hairstyle choices later down the line in the game after the initial character creation? I've looked around for ponytail male hairstyles and there's not much of a choice, especialyl since on character creation "nicest" for me is also tried to specyfic race on top of that.
another symbol
That enemy is part of a FATE
Combat events that spawn on the map
in big blue/purple circles
usually either "kill enough enemies in the time limit" or "defeat the boss enemy"
Sometimes it's "escort the NPC" or "gather items from killing enemies"
yes, there are more unlockable hairstyles in game though im not too sure about male hairstyles.
you also unlock the aesthetician through a short quest and can change hairstyle anytime you want using just in-game gil.
should I be doing them at my level
Meh
You can do them any time
the ones in the areas you're questing in should be appropriate to your level.
They say on them what level they are.
Ic, great, good to know, thank you very much~
By the way, you haven't disabled active help, have you?
not sure
The game has popups to explain a lot of these things.
A green question-mark icon appears in the direct centre of the screen when you're prompted with a new active help
you click on it and get a popup dialogue box, sometimes with multiple little pages
sounds like I may have
or maybe I saw the message previoously
oh I have it on
finished a fate and got a big ? with fate rewards
so must have skipped them or read them a while ago (I made a character previously but only went to level 7)
so if it is just a standard !
I leave it alone?
When it comes to the Bozjan relic, are there any other grindy steps besides farming the 60 tokens?
someone said main story and + only to me before
Is it possible to craft aesthetes crafting set with Dwarven set equipped? I guess I have to wear facet?
if I finish a fate
and it has a timer counting down to end
do I need to stay near it for rewards or can I leave and still get theem
you can leave
as long as you contribute enough, youโll get rewards
You dont meet the requirements, be it level, wrong job or haven't done the required prerequisites
It usually tells you what you're missing
oook
When trying to accept it
There isnt many reasons for alts
Outside of RP purposes, playing on different data centres or trying to avoid raid lockouts while playing with different groups
seems to be blocked off though
ooo then you haven't unlocked it
im on the quest journey to the goblet though ๐ฆ
naniii
go to western thanalan, outside the city. Then travel south
the goblet is south of west thanalan
ah right i totally forgot that part..
I find the maps quite unclear and difficult to navigate :/
really??
have you tried to click the quest itself?
it usually directs you straight to the destination
without having to navigate from your character location
I just dont like how it cuts off everythign but a specific area
so I cant see where it connects to in the next zone etc
it's old-school tech. they have to put everything into zones
Earlier question since it didn't get answered

Oh yeah, 6 times right?
yeh
Its for bitter memories to make it glow
Either farm in bojza or do 6 heavensward dungeons synced
so normal quests give arrows onthe compass to tell yo uwhere to go
but the MSQ does not?
or have I disabled it somehow
msq does, usually on the last quest of the area

Yes
Any spell you can get from dungeons are Easy because sync guarantees it
And Rams voice is from Chimeras, which you can do cutters cry or the ARR trial for ot
And get both rams and dragons voice at the same time
the freeze spells can be gotten from Masked Carnival
there is a boss fight where you only fight the chimera
you don't have to go through a whole dungeon
Its much faster to go via dungeon or the trial, the trial being the fastest
Because its guaranteed
Plus blue dungeons take like 5 minutes
Always learn spells in dungeons whenever possible
don't you need sync to be 100% learning rate?
Yes
And you still clear in 5mins
Hell the trial will be a few seconds after it casted the abilities
if you're not free-trial or can find a party, sure
There will be more parties in the coming patch as the interest increases
Plus the option to enter Solo but be synced
How to unlock unreal?
I dont see the quest req in idyllshire
I have past shadowbringer
hi there
had been restarting free trial on another japan server recenlty on a us account. Is EU monlty fee still cheaper and easier compared to US one?
There should be a quest right next to Khloe in idyllshire
Yea i dont see it :( maybe i already unlock it? Would it be in high end duty tab
Yes
old question, sorry if repeated for some but if i where to relocate a small house to a medium sized one, how much would that cost?
