[kindred gazelle]

anyone doing the yokai event fates or know where i can find a group doing them?

[obsidian patio]

I sometimes see groups in party finder

[quiet cipher]

what do you think is gonna be a good ilevel for the next patch?

like 480 or so?

[fast talon]

at what point does scaevan gear become available for purchase in SB? Do I need to finish the MSQ first?

[obsidian patio]

@quiet cipher 485 at minimum for the next tier of Eden normal

@fast talon complete stormblood base story, yes

[quiet cipher]

ah okay im good then

[fast talon]

okay, thanks

[digital grove]

So is leveling from like 1-60 still palace of the dead since I have done msq up to shadowbringers

[obsidian patio]

If your queue for dungeons is slow, then yes

If not then do those along with roulettes

[digital grove]

Ok cool. So is it still the best 1-60 or can I do 1-70 efficiently

[twilit arch]

61-70 should be done via heaven on high

[digital grove]

Ok cool thank you

[honest anvil]

is ilv 485 enough to get to enter all 4 upcoming eden normal? or will e11 and 12 require higher?

[warped nest]

I cannot give you exact answer

But you can check the existing Eden raids

And see for yourself

[faint flare]

All normal modes will be 485 required

[warped nest]

There you go

[faint flare]

You literally add +30 ilvls to everything

SEs formulaic as always

[ripe hound]

What does Braindead Strat mean for e7s?

[obsidian patio]

Yeah just take these and add 30 to them for 5.4 stuff

So 5.4 dungeon will want i470, Emerald normal wants 485 and extreme wants 500, and 3rd tier of Eden savage will want 500-510

[faint flare]

Braindead strat is for coloured portals after adds

[ripe hound]

Is it basically the same as MTQ's guide?

[faint flare]

You go to the north east corner, DPS in one row and tank/healer in the one below....if the north west portal is red, you swap every charge...if blue you stay still for every charge

You stack the coloured aors

[ripe hound]

https://youtu.be/4b-SY1VTPdM

[empty parrot]

Are codes for promotional items region locked? Like for example the new chocolate mount, is the JP code only usable by JP service accounts?

[faint flare]

Drop the baited aoes in the centre

[ripe hound]

Cool like Joon Bob's guide right?

[little swift]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eVsWNf4CaU
this one gives a verbal explanation too if oyu need that

[ripe hound]

Cool

Thanks everyone!

[faint flare]

Yes

[obsidian patio]

I can’t remember if the old promos like the upcoming one with the mount were region-locked codes

[faint flare]

That's braindead strat

[ripe hound]

Also you can just eat all 4 AOEs together?

You won't die?

[faint flare]

Yes

Pop mitigation

[ripe hound]

Nice

[faint flare]

Thats why braindead strat exists

Because you can do that

[little swift]

if you're that worried you can spread

but it really doesn't matter

[ripe hound]

What does "Cross T" mean for e7s?

[little swift]

strategy for betwixt worlds

its the directions dps teleport to so that they can resolve thier birdballs

[ripe hound]

Oh got it

So 2 DPS in middle, 2 DPS on the edge?

[little swift]

||/ would be the directions the dps go based on which tether they got

[ripe hound]

All DPS up north?

[little swift]

the outer edge dps go to the opposite sides

[ripe hound]

Oh

I see

So it's a cross T

[little swift]

its called cross because they cross

[ripe hound]

Why do people want Cross T instead of /||\?

[teal dragon]

how many poetics can you get per day?

[little swift]

it doesn't matter tbh

just something pf chose

umbrella tends to have the chance of being less safe

[ripe hound]

kk

[little swift]

if dps don't aim far enough north

but in coordinated groups it doesn't matter

[little swift]

as many as you care to get/spend

there's no limit

[ripe hound]

What does HMR mean?

[faint flare]

Last phase orb order

[little swift]

its the order the healers/melees/ranged take the orbs

[ripe hound]

Healer Melee Ranged?

[faint flare]

Healer melee rangr

[little swift]

for birdnado

[teal dragon]

but this says reward already recieved does it mean i cant get more?

[ripe hound]

Oh I see

[faint flare]

Roulettes aren't the only way to get poetics

Running lv50/60/70 content gives them

[ripe hound]

Usually it's Tanks South, and one group left one group right right?

[faint flare]

Que for them directly

[teal dragon]

but its not much right

[little swift]

reward received is for your daily roulette reward

that includes teh exp/gil

[teal dragon]

ohh alrite

[little swift]

!faq poetics

[zinc orbit]

What should I spend my Poetics on? How do I get more?

Text guide on what to spend Tomestones of Poetics on

Video guide on how to get more Tomestones of Poetics

[little swift]

2nd link on ways to get more

[faint flare]

It adds up, plus you get first time bonus on new dungeons you do

[ripe hound]

For Birdnado, usually it's Tanks South, and one group left one group right right?

How do you dived the left and right group again?

[twilit karma]

It's based on what color you get. Light goes NW and Dark goes NE

[little swift]

its based on your colour

it doesn't matter for tanks because they each get 1 colour

and 1 tank takes 2 orbs

[ripe hound]

It will always be a Ranged and a Melee getting a color?

[twilit karma]

Nope, it's random gotta be flexible

[ripe hound]

Oh

[twilit karma]

healers will get opposite colors, the dps is random

[ripe hound]

How do you adjust?

[twilit karma]

Healer pops first, usually then someone will just kinda run ahead, signaling they're planning on going next

Sounds more hectic than it is, it usually works out fine

[ripe hound]

I see, I mean how does the DPS choose which group to go to at the beginning?

[twilit karma]

Again it's based on what color you get

Light or Dark

Light has to go NW, Dark has to go NE. If you went the other way you'd die

[ripe hound]

Got it

Light always go left, Dark go right

[twilit karma]

Because of the color of the orbs that need popping

[ripe hound]

When facing north

[twilit karma]

They always spawn the same way

Yeah

[ripe hound]

Also does "South for Heals" mean anything?

[twilit karma]

Yeah so after you pop the orbs, the group needs to stack either N or S

[ripe hound]

Oh just stack South, everyone stack south

Got it

Thanks Reiko!

[twilit karma]

Because there's a bunch of raidwide damage that's gonna go out there and you want everyone together

Np 🙂

[kindred gazelle]

hello. anyone want to group up to do fates for the yokai event?

[ripe hound]

Prog Party | Cross T | Braindead | HMR | Birdnado Stack South Does this look good enough?

[little swift]

yah thats fine

if you want to you can specify what you're progging as well

[ripe hound]

It's "fresh prog" but if I specify it no one joins

Hey, fresh prog is prog right?

[bronze plover]

I'm having trouble purchasing the complete game off the NA website for some reason. IM Canadian. I have been playing a free account and im level 41 using the Square launcher. If I decide to buy it using Steam instead would I have to download the game again?

[oblique yew]

Does subscription start when I open the game for the first time? For eg.
If I buy the game today and install it today, but open it after 15 days, does the subscription start on that day?

[lyric garden]

when i first buy the game do i get the sub with it?

[plush hound]

@oblique yew The sub starts from the moment you pay into it.

@lyric garden you get 30 days free when you sign up and pay for a month minimum for a paid sub. So the first 30 days you pay for doesn't start to account for until 30 days.

[lyric garden]

ok periodtt!

I need dat

wait

so when i get on steam I pay an extra 20 dollars?

or

[analog gate]

the base game's price includes an 30 day sub period

[obsidian patio]

Pay extra $20 for what?

^^

[leaden ginkgo]

!iglam padjali shield

[zinc orbit]

**Padjali Shield** **:** Shield

Images of glamour items by Gamer Escape.

[obsidian patio]

Like this glow?

Or did it have an actual weapon/shield model under the glow

[leaden ginkgo]

ye

that's it

thx

[obsidian patio]

That’s from palace of the dead after beating floor 50

[leaden ginkgo]

is it rare?

[obsidian patio]

Not exactly

You trade in your aetherpool levels for grips to exchange for the weapons

Note they’re level 60 equipment

[leaden ginkgo]

ye I'm lvl 80

looking for armor that looks angelic, the edenverse stuff is ok but looking for something less spikey I guess, I have the hw relic weapons but I like the padjali shield

if you guys have any suggestions on the angelic armor thing

and I have the halo already and the winged outfit inb4

I'm not a fan of the diamond in the middle thing, there is no male version of the winged outfit

[chilly briar]

is there a way to bypass thordan reigns major part for bird farming?

[thorn thicket]

What's the 59th Blue Mage Spell called?

[obsidian patio]

@chilly briar if you mean the giant intermission with all the knights, no.

@thorn thicket yes

[forest bronze]

how do i travel around faster i hate running back and fourth :( and the teleports cost gils and i dont have much esrly game

[slate arrow]

chocobo porter

[forest bronze]

oh it doesnt cost gil?

[twilit arch]

the porters do cost gil

but its usually under like 20gil

[forest bronze]

ohh ty!

[vernal plover]

Dumb question, but how do I start using my whale mount from the store

I bought it, but idk how to use it in game. I just got Chocobos

[glacial isle]

Does Materia ever become useful in gear or should I always be using Tomestone gear?

(currently lvl 58 BLM in early HW MSQ)

(using Aug. Ironworks gear)

[fresh lodge]

You should have swapped out of ironworks gear 3 levels ago

[glacial isle]

To what?

[raw solstice]

well if they're in early HW MSQ they might not have encountered easy replacements yet

[fresh lodge]

Though you're probably not up to that level in the MSQ so it doesn't really matter

[glacial isle]

Current MSQ is "In Search of Raubahn"

[fresh lodge]

Once you hit level 54/55 quests you'll start getting gear thats better than Ironworks

[glacial isle]

Ok

[fresh lodge]

Swap it out then, but Materia is only really useful at cap

[glacial isle]

what's the set called?

[remote lintel]

@vernal plover open your mount menu and put it on your hotbar

[fresh lodge]

Just look at the stats

Whatever has higher vit and int is better

[dusky forum]

hi quick question im new to the game and i bought the entire game and i made a black mage class, but i wanted to be a samurai class but i have to be lv50 or higher when i become lv50 and higher would i be able to make a whole different character for the class? or is it different

[twilit arch]

you'd unlock it for that character

[remote lintel]

you can unlock all classes on one character

they level separately

[dusky forum]

yeah but can u make like different characters for that?

[remote lintel]

theres no reason to

[dusky forum]

bc wouldnt there be so much in your inventory?

[remote lintel]

it wouldnt make much difference because 1. alt characters cant interact with each other at all and 2. you have plenty of inventory in the game

[dusky forum]

oh ok

[twilit arch]

There's no point in making a new character, because you'd be running into effectively the same issues

in regards to unlocking expansion jobs, you have to be x level to unlock it

[dusky forum]

why cant i unlock the rouge class

its like red with a key

[remote lintel]

did you do your job quests

[dusky forum]

no

[remote lintel]

do them

[dusky forum]

how? xd

[remote lintel]

click the little exclamation mark under your msq bar

[dusky forum]

where do i check them?

theres none

[remote lintel]

what level are you

[dusky forum]

18

about to be lv19

[remote lintel]

what does the npc say when you try to talk to him

[dusky forum]

something that im not allowed to go in

but another thing is i havent done any other job quest

for other classes

like the archer guild and stuff

do i have to do them?

[twilit arch]

yes, they unlock skills

[remote lintel]

you need to have done the lvl 10 job quest on your starting job and then it unlocks class switching

[twilit arch]

and the lvl 10 class quest is require to be able to unlock other classes

[dusky forum]

oh ok so how do i know which is going to be like the archer person and stuff

[remote lintel]

you go to the archer guild

[twilit arch]

under the main scenario quest tracker, it indicates when a new class/job quest is available

[dusky forum]

oh really?

none has shown up for me

the only thing there is the threat of intimacy

[twilit arch]

that's a class quest

[dusky forum]

hmm

interesting

[remote lintel]

thats your lvl 5 class quest

which means you havent done the lvl 10 one

so you cant unlock rogue

[dusky forum]

when do i know when i will be at the lv10 one

[remote lintel]

the quest will be lvl 10

[dusky forum]

and also ik this going to be a dumb question and it showed me early on but what do the blue bubble mean? i see a few around the map

[remote lintel]

these unlock things

[dusky forum]

so i saw few videos and they say at lv30 i get a class shard something like that

what does that mean?

[remote lintel]

when you upgrade to black mage you get a job stone

which is what makes you a black mage

and not a thaumaturge

[dusky forum]

ohhhh ok interesting

so does the blue bubble also mean i can unlock a class?

[remote lintel]

it just means it unlocks something

if it unlocks a class it will have it in the rewards

[dusky forum]

ok sorry im pretty slow

so how would i know if someone would unlock a class for me

[faint flare]

It rewards you with that jobs weapon

[twilit arch]

class unlocks (for ARR atleast) are usually called

"So you want to be ..."

[dusky forum]

oh ok btw so on the main screen for picking a class would it show only the arr classes? or every other class in the game

[faint flare]

Only the starting jobs

[dusky forum]

so it wont show the gunbreaker and samurai class?

[faint flare]

No

No expansion jobs

[remote lintel]

it shows the job stone for their unlock quests

[dusky forum]

oh ok

tysm for helping me everyone

it helped a lot

is there a video showing where to go for all the classes and unlock them?

[grim forge]

anyway, how to get the code data after purchasing in square enix store ?

[obsidian patio]

You should get an email for your purchase, which leads to the code

Assuming you made sure to buy digital, of course

[grim forge]

its like that

only got an email says verification

[leaden ginkgo]

whats the difference between ironworks and Gerolts gears?

also how do I get primal gears

[warped nest]

Ironworks are level 50 item level 130 gears you get by trading Allagan Tomestone of Poetics with Rowena and her helpers.

[dusky forum]

another quick question shouls i do these class quest(archer and other arr class) back to back or do 1 for now and take my time.

[warped nest]

Ironworks (i130) is the most powerful gear you can get at level 50, and it will be out ranked by gears dropped in lvl 55 dungeon (midway into base Heavensward story)

@dusky forum attend to them as soon as possible

[dusky forum]

ok so where on the map can i find them?@warped nest

[warped nest]

Early class/job quests unlock skill

On the top left of your screen

You should see a red

[dusky forum]

yeah

[warped nest]

Below it is an orange exclamation

The exclamation shows up if you have class quest available for the current class you have equipped

Click it

And it should open up a map

And you can handle the rest

[verbal pagoda]

Hi, first time trying to play and I'm on server choices. I wanted to join a friend on goblin but it's not accepting. Any ideas if it's worth waiting? And then how long I might have to wait until it's open for new characters?

ok would it pop up automatically or i need to go to those people

[weary cave]

hello I have a question how long does it usually take for a item from mogstation to appear in my mailbox?

[warped nest]

It is swan liege?

[dusky forum]

@warped nest would the npc have a special color for the new class job?

[twilit arch]

the cane is anima weapon

[remote lintel]

@weary cave if its account wide, a few hours

[warped nest]

they should have this icon, Taran

Job quests don't hop to new NPC without you knowing

[weary cave]

oh costumes take a few hours?

[leaden ginkgo]

Is it the storm blood one? X

[warped nest]

Just look for familiar faces again, Taran

[remote lintel]

costumes arent account wide

[warped nest]

Anima is HW

[worthy basin]

or you can see the new job quest under the msq quest top left of your screen.

[remote lintel]

at most like an hour probably

[twilit arch]

no, anima is the heavensward relic

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok ty! 🙂

I was thinking the finisher?

[obsidian patio]

Might’ve been thinking of the old AoE autoturret

That one was at 50

[warped nest]

Ahh

And this is learnt from job quest too, I believe

So it isn't shown on your Action and Trait window, unlike your lvl 60-80 skills

[teal dragon]

Nice

[forest bronze]

when you get a new class your level is set to zero? and when you swap back it goes to that jobs level you were at?

[analog gate]

yes, each job has its own level

and start at 1

[worthy basin]

not exactly zero though, there are jobs that start at 30, 50 or 60.

[forest bronze]

oh right since im panning on switching to samurai it’ll start at 50 then?

[worthy basin]

yes

Yup

[leaden ginkgo]

Why are all the market board websites extremely out of date (multiple weeks). Is there a site that keeps more up to date than that?

[twilit arch]

because they rely on people having ACT installed as well as a specific plugin

there's nothing that is going to be 100% up to date because of how they have to go about getting marketboard information

[obsidian patio]

Sites like Universalis rely on people using plugins to look at stuff in the marketboard

Bots used to be used at first to look at everything, but they were banned as they were... well bots

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh I had wrongly assumed they scraped everything themselves using bots 😄 . Thanks.

It would be detrimental to stay as an ACN yeah

[remote lintel]

but theres no reason to

[lyric garden]

you don't get stronger as one?

[remote lintel]

no

because summoner/scholar is the upgraded arcanist

[lyric garden]

aha ok

[gloomy ice]

Technically yes? But you'll be missing 2/3 of your kit.

[lyric garden]

how do I change my class?

[remote lintel]

equip a diff weapon

and make a gear set

[lyric garden]

its that easy?

[remote lintel]

yes

[gaunt ember]

is there a specific channel where we go to look for help joining FCs?

[lyric garden]

omg thats cute

[remote lintel]

you need to have unlocked the ability to change class

by doing your lvl 10 job quest

@gaunt ember wym look for help

[gaunt ember]

is there a channel here dedicated to joining FCs?

[remote lintel]

the recruitment channel

[gaunt ember]

ty

[lyric garden]

where can I buy an arcanist weapon?

for like 380 gil IMAO

[remote lintel]

did you lose it?

[worthy basin]

just use your job quests books

[remote lintel]

because you get one for free

[lyric garden]

well I went the wrong class

or I don't like it

[remote lintel]

main city vendors

[lyric garden]

ok i lost alot of my money buying rabit pies

what prices are they?

[manic flare]

is there a level requirement to unlock namazu tribes?

my crafters are all in the 50s

[brittle anvil]

So just about to get started. What classes should I look into maining if I want to be desired in end game content?

[lyric garden]

omg same purged

[remote lintel]

@lyric garden google says 92 gil

[lyric garden]

oh yayy

[remote lintel]

@brittle anvil any

[lyric garden]

tysm

is summoner a fun class?

[remote lintel]

you can be all classe son one character so it doesnt matter

fun is subjective

[manic flare]

@lyric garden very

[lyric garden]

or so I just sit there and press buttons?

ok ty

[manic flare]

it was my first class

[remote lintel]

its rotation is one of the harder ones

being 2 min long

[manic flare]

its harder than other classes to do well

[lyric garden]

idk what a rotation is LOL

[gloomy ice]

@manic flare Namazu starts at level 60. For 50s, you'll want to unlock Moogles.

[lyric garden]

in this game*

[manic flare]

but it has very high dps

[worthy basin]

summoner is a fun class

[remote lintel]

a rotation is the optimal order of skills

[worthy basin]

high damage and mobility too

[remote lintel]

for example

!faq drgopener

[zinc orbit]

**Dragoon Opener**

Full explanations can be found in the resources on The Balance.

Image guide:

[lyric garden]

I like mobility

[remote lintel]

this is dragoons opener

[manic flare]

@lyric garden depending on who you ask, summoner either has the best or the second best dps in the game

[lyric garden]

ok ty

[manic flare]

but it's very rotation dependent

so it's hard to play well

but once you learn it

[lyric garden]

I go in a circle and attack?

[manic flare]

the class absolutely devastates

[lyric garden]

like dbo

[remote lintel]

wym circle

[manic flare]

dbo?

[lyric garden]

oh also how do i progress in skill

[worthy basin]

bdo?

[lyric garden]

i only know how to spam buttns

[remote lintel]

you level up

[lyric garden]

black desert online

[remote lintel]

dont spam buttons

[lyric garden]

LOL

[remote lintel]

learn your rotation

[lyric garden]

rotation like the order in which I do my spells? or

[remote lintel]

yes

thats what i said

[manic flare]

u could get away w/ spamming buttons as tank prob

[remote lintel]

this is summoner's opener

[manic flare]

@remote lintel u are scaring him too much

[lyric garden]

omg girll what is this LOL

[remote lintel]

i mean they need to learn their opener

[leaden ginkgo]

What are some cool spots to take screenshots? I want to show off look 🙂

[manic flare]

buts that too advanced right now@remote lintel

thats if you are at lvl 80

he needs a rotation for early levels

[lyric garden]

how do i get an arancist weapon? like which shop

and is it a staff?

[manic flare]

grimoire

[gloomy ice]

Arcanist weapons are books

[remote lintel]

the weapon vendor in main cities

[lyric garden]

ok i found it

[warped nest]

@lyric garden https://youtu.be/XzBuQcfUdzU

[lyric garden]

tysm 6^

[warped nest]

Watch this, and only up to your current level

[boreal storm]

It says who uses what when you highlight the weapon

[warped nest]

Then review the video again when you get more skills

[lyric garden]

ok

[warped nest]

This is not a guide for endgame summoner with high level of optimization

[manic flare]

u dont need to buy weapons in early game

the msq gives u everything u need

[warped nest]

It is a guide to learn how to play summoner as you level it up

[worthy basin]

it's basically a trailer for what skills can you get as you progress with your summoner.

[lyric garden]

it says I cannot currently equip this item

I bought a book

[remote lintel]

unequip your soul stone

[lyric garden]

soul stone?

[boreal storm]

Have you joined the arcanist guild?

[warped nest]

Job soulstone

[remote lintel]

in your character window

[warped nest]

Thingy

[gloomy ice]

Oh you might need to do the unlock quest for arcanist in Limsa

[teal dragon]

do free trial ninja have acces to frog kuchiyose?

[lyric garden]

no idk how

[warped nest]

!action Hellfrog

[lyric garden]

can i join at lvl 7?

[zinc orbit]

Error!

Action not found, Kupo!

[lyric garden]

LOL

[remote lintel]

@teal dragon no

[warped nest]

You need to finish the lvl 10 class quest for your starter class first

[lyric garden]

ok

[warped nest]

Before you can pick up other class/jobs

[lyric garden]

ok ty

[remote lintel]

also i said you get a free grimoire so there was no reason to buy one

[lyric garden]

when i hit lvl 10?

[remote lintel]

when you unlock arcanist

each class unlock gives you the weapon

[lyric garden]

ok

[boreal storm]

What class are you anyway?

[lyric garden]

marauder

[warped nest]

!action Hellfrog Medium

[zinc orbit]

**Hellfrog Medium** : lvl 62 NIN (50 Ninki Gauge) (1.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Deals fire damage with a potency of 200 to target and all enemies nearby it.
Ninki Gauge Cost: 50
Shares a recast timer with Bhavacakra.

Powered by XIVAPI

[lyric garden]

I wanted to try something new but I didn't like it

[warped nest]

Btw, the frog question

[manic flare]

@lyric garden marauder is good, it later upgrades to warrior, which has the highest dps of the tanks in this game

[warped nest]

Go kill stuff to level your Marauder to lvl 10, then do its lvl 10 class quest

[manic flare]

allows you to solo content

[warped nest]

Afterward, you are free to swap

[remote lintel]

all tanks have about the same dps

[warped nest]

To Arcanist, or any other classes you can reach

[manic flare]

@remote lintel i thought warrior had more?

[lyric garden]

o well i usually like to be in the back or something

[remote lintel]

its not substantial

[lyric garden]

but i'll lvl it up later

[warped nest]

Warrior is actually on the lower end

Last I check

[lyric garden]

wait im confused

[manic flare]

i thought it was paladin

[remote lintel]

playing a caster doesnt mean youll be at the back

[manic flare]

who had the lowest dps

[remote lintel]

as a caster you still want to be with the party

[lyric garden]

so I have to level up each job separately?

[remote lintel]

yes

[warped nest]

Yes

[lyric garden]

oh nice

[warped nest]

Think of them as weapon proficiency

[grim forge]

anyone here has a problem on purchasing ffxiv order today ? it said today had a lot of order so it gave me pending

[warped nest]

If you are more familiar with that concept

[lyric garden]

im not

[warped nest]

Pokemon level then

XD

[lyric garden]

im not really familiar with anything mmorpg

i played wizard101 like 10 years ago doe LOL

[manic flare]

@warped nest that's not remotely similar to pokemon lol

[lyric garden]

I was just feeling cute and decided to hop into mmos

[warped nest]

Different job are different Pokémon, each have their own level

You, as the trainer, doesn't have your own level

[lyric garden]

im not fam with pokemon either

LOL

[boreal storm]

Wat

[remote lintel]

just because your character is good with an axe doesnt automatically make them good with magic

basically

[lyric garden]

ok ty

[boreal storm]

And just because you can use “this magic” doesn’t mean you’re good at “that magic”
for casters

[warped nest]

Other concepts you might expect or know, but doesn't exist in FFXIV:

• there is no character stat growth, so if you play tank a lot, it won't make your Mage more tanky. All stat comes from Equipment.
• there is no concept like "I want to make a Ninja who can tank by evading everything"
• you cannot mix and merge classes.

[teal dragon]

so free trials dont have access to this gauge then?

[warped nest]

Nope

[teal dragon]

awww

how abt this?

[remote lintel]

yes

[warped nest]

!action Huton

[zinc orbit]

**Huton** : lvl 45 NIN (1.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces weaponskill recast time and auto-attack delay by 15%.
Duration: 70s
Mudra Combination: Jin→Chi→Ten or Chi→Jin→Ten
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.

※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.

[warped nest]

You get that once you learnt Huton

[teal dragon]

ok

[manic flare]

is there a way to set up a teleport waypoint?

just for myself to use

[jade quartz]

No

[flint bay]

like aetheryte, or specifically not aetheryte?

[manic flare]

for example, i want to be able to teleport to the mog tribe quest giver

[jade quartz]

There is no mark/recall

[manic flare]

and not have to start at moghome

[flint bay]

just go to zenith

[jade quartz]

Zenith is like right there though yeah

[raven sage]

zenith is significantly closer

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a way getting my data from PS to PC ? for example charachter config, Hud layout and so on

Not sure if this is the right channel to ask

[remote lintel]

upload it to the cloud in the character select screen

then download it on pc

[leaden ginkgo]

What do I require for it ?

[remote lintel]

nothing?

you just click the cog icon and click upload

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh ok, lemme try that out

Thank you

[remote lintel]

note that there's 2 cog icons, one for system settings and one for character settings

[leaden ginkgo]

And I need the character ?

[remote lintel]

you should upload both

[leaden ginkgo]

Right

[lilac flume]

i've been levelling classes in potd to 50 before i do any of the class quests or whatnot. since ARC can go to smn or sch at 30, should i stop there or if i get arc to 50 does one (or both) of the classes "carry over" the levels?

[remote lintel]

both become 50

[lilac flume]

oh nice

[remote lintel]

when you unlock them

[lilac flume]

cool i wont have to grind them both then

maybe i should even grind both up through hoh

does hoh/daily roulettes require specialization classes?

[warped nest]

Hoh are good for DPS because Dps usually have worse dungeon queue time

With a Scholar, you can just queue dungeons to grind exp more efficiently

And your summoner level will match your scholar's

[remote lintel]

I would assume HoH requires the job upgrade

[lilac flume]

smn and sch share xp?

[warped nest]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Based on prior trends (or if they've actually said something), do we know what ilvl the normal 5.4 raid is likely to drop?

[warped nest]

They both branch from Arcanist

@leaden ginkgo should be 510

[lilac flume]

so as i gain levels in smn, sch automatically gains levels as well?

[remote lintel]

yes

[warped nest]

Yes

[lilac flume]

niceeee

[remote lintel]

because they both share arcanist

[lilac flume]

that'l cut down on a lot of grind

[lyric garden]

how hard is it to quest?

like can i do it alone or should I follow people

[remote lintel]

quests aren't hard?

most of the campaign is solo anyway

[lyric garden]

aha

what can you do with friends?

[remote lintel]

dungeons, trials, raids, fates, anything you want

[warped nest]

Exploration

And what Cerberus typed

[remote lintel]

just party up and do whatever

[lyric garden]

o? what is there to explore

[warped nest]

You can quest with friends, but the cutscene only acknowledge you

[lyric garden]

i don't know anything about the map

i actually got lost in the lower deck or sum

[remote lintel]

unlock content

use the square map

I have it up all the time

[lyric garden]

o ok

how do i go back on npc text?

like I missed something they said

[remote lintel]

you can enable npc text to show up in the chat log

click the cog icon next to chat

[lyric garden]

I like to look at my chat doe

can I make separate ones?

[remote lintel]

you can make a custom tab and enable whatever you want on it

[lone zephyr]

Is there any way to use this skill outside of pvp?

I know I can just macro something similar to that but I like that the skill changes automatically and I can still press it again whenever I want instead of being automatic

[lyric garden]

how many worlds are there?

[lone zephyr]

Also it straight out drains the 80 black and white mana instead of draining it slowly after each skill

[twilit karma]

No, those kind of auto combos are always PvP only, for the regular game you gotta push all your buttons yourself

[warped nest]

PvP skills cannot be used in PvE

[twilit karma]

Also don't make macros of your combos, it's a major DPS loss

[lone zephyr]

Ok

[lone zephyr]

thanks

[hidden lotus]

At the Lakeland gem exchange, is The Source the night theme, or is it Unchanging, Everchanging?

[gloomy ice]

@lyric garden Like servers? 68 in total. For NA, however, it's 8 per data center.

[lyric garden]

oh I mean like

if I went from forest to jungle

idk anything about the worlds though

I just know its not all limsa and lominsa

or is it?

[ripe hound]

Does anyone know when will 5.4 release on Dec 8?

Like, about 2 am pst?

[twilit karma]

Those aren't really separate worlds, just different areas of one world. Actually of just one continent so far

[gloomy ice]

Oh zones. 34.

[teal dragon]

my bad

[lyric garden]

34?

each one has a crystal right?

[gloomy ice]

Miscounted. 35 not including cities or other social areas.

[twilit karma]

An Aetheryte? Mostly yeah, though not all of them. And some have more than one

[gloomy ice]

And, yeah, each has its own teleport crystal with the exception of the second to last HW zone.

[twilit karma]

Nope, Not the Dravanian Hinterlands 😛

[gloomy ice]

Ye I mentioned that vaguely 😅

[twilit karma]

Oh lol, didn't read that far

[gloomy ice]

@ripe hound Yeah, all of the major patches to date for ShB have ended their maintenance at that same time. Seems likely that 5.4 will follow the same trend.

[ripe hound]

kk

[leaden ginkgo]

Are Extreme Trials noticeably easier than Savage Raids?

[remote lintel]

yes

EXs take maybe several hours to learn while savages can take a couple weeks

[gritty oracle]

All aesthete items have the same progress/quality/durability values, from main hand to the last accessory, right?

Have you finish the lvl 10 class quest for your class?

Once you done that, To become an Arcanist, go to the west side of the Lower Lominsa

There should be an NPC inside a room with a So you want to be Arcanist

[lyric garden]

no I don't think so

[wet cradle]

have they fixed the title selection screen bug?

[remote lintel]

what bug

[honest anvil]

EXs take maybe several hours to learn while savages can take a couple weeks
@remote lintel seriously? weeks?

[fast talon]

There's no correlation between how many people do a Fate with regards to getting rewards right? Been trying to get luminous crystals and I've had way worse luck than last time and the only difference is I'm doing the Fates with others now.

[balmy pond]

Is Bard a good class

[jade quartz]

Class balance is strong.

!faq meta

[zinc orbit]

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

[jade quartz]

BRD is fractionally underpowered right now--we're talking like 2% damage difference compared to others in the same role type at the very highest level of play, assuming everyone's playing flawlessly. It is getting some buffs in the upcoming major patch in two weeks' time.

Raid groups still would not turn down a bard at this point in time regardless.

[teal dragon]

Main damage source for DRG is im BoD right

[jade quartz]

The player's attitude and skill matters more.

uh

What do you mean, exactly?

BotD should be up at all times

Life of the Dragon is their burst phase

[balmy pond]

I see thanks, How do i level other class fast? I kinda not liking the lancer atm and want to switch to archer my lancer is lvl 26 and archer is lvl 8

[jade quartz]

majority of damage across the entire fight comes from Fang&Claw and Wheeling Thrust

@balmy pond Hunting log until level 15/16, then do daily leveling roulette and then spam your highest-level dungeon or Palace of the Dead.

At higher levels you have access to more roulettes and other sources of exp, namely beast tribe dailies.

[balmy pond]

I see thank you

[hasty musk]

saving enough money for a house and then buying it running savage raids and collecting the latest tomestones for gear

[timid geyser]

L'art de la lance

[robust crow]

honestly, the endgame grind isn't that bad

most of your gear progression is locked behind how skilled you are

[jade quartz]

It's a French-language guide

[robust crow]

the other half of it is locked behind weekly currency

[timid geyser]

I guessed it is lol

Well, I guessed it's a guide

Cause not guessing it's french while being french would have made of me an idiot

The true endgame is having a house

[sacred flame]

If I bought the complete edition but am using the free trial am I going to be level capped?

[fresh lodge]

If you enter the complete edition code then no

[jade quartz]

Be aware that once you register a purchased copy of the game to your FFXIV account, you will no longer be able to play the free trial.

[sacred flame]

Bought digital

[timid geyser]

You'll be capped at 80

You'll get 30 days of free sub time once you register the game

After that, you've gotta pay the sub

There's no going back onto free trial mode.

[frozen girder]

Do I just need to wait for my bought mount to show up? >_>

[timid geyser]

yes

[frozen girder]

So there's no point in the story I need to get to?

I got half the order, because I bought a weapon along with it

But I only got the weapon not the mount >_<

[jade quartz]

Have you unlocked mounts yet? (Company chocobo)

[timid geyser]

did you go get it to the mog ?

Did you join a grand company ?

[jade quartz]

Account-wide items like most of the mogstation mounts take longer to deliver.

[dusky nest]

If it's an account wide mount, it can take some extra time

Shit too slow

[frozen girder]

Oh I see

What's a grand company

I literally just joined

[timid geyser]

okay

[frozen girder]

XD

[timid geyser]

You won't be able to use mounts for a while

[dusky nest]

Level 20 main story will have you pick one

[jade quartz]

OK then you won't be able to use your mount yet

[frozen girder]

😭

[jade quartz]

but it will still arrive in the mail.

[timid geyser]

You need to advance in story

[jade quartz]

!faq mounts

[zinc orbit]

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.

[frozen girder]

So I specifically need to do story, not grind for level to 20

[dusky nest]

Yes

[abstract veldt]

What set should I get as a fresh lvl 80 fisher ?

[dusky nest]

Pretty much everything is locked behind story

[jade quartz]

Your priority should be doing the main story

Main story quest rewards will provide most of the exp you need to get to level cap

[jade quartz]

You don't need to go "grinding" on your first job.

[jade quartz]

yes that's MSQ

That's a cosmetic weapon

Intended to be used for glamour.

Do I need to get a house or something

? no

[frozen girder]

[jade quartz]

no

[frozen girder]

How do I use it :3

[jade quartz]

Level 15 in Vesper Bay

!faq glamour

[zinc orbit]

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

[frozen girder]

😭

More story quests XD

[dusky nest]

You will reach that quickly

[jade quartz]

Yeah that's like

three to four hours into the game only

[frozen girder]

Hmmmmm

[worthy basin]

how much poetics do i need to complete one anima weapon?

[dusky nest]

But kinda brave of you to spend so much money already before you actually started the game

[frozen girder]

Should I save the glamour weapon I bought until I want to keep a weapon?

[dusky nest]

You can reuse it

It won't disappear

[frozen girder]

I bought the game for 50% off, so I figured I had a bit of extra money XD

I was planning on buying the game full price

[jade quartz]

An Anima weapon is roughly 20K poetics or something

Some of the steps have alternative methods to progress

You can use poetics or other methods like company seals to get the items

so how many poetics you spend may vary.

tbh I'd recommend waiting until you have seen a lot of the items that are on offer in the actual game itself before buying anything off the cash shop

like for example that thaumaturge weapon you got

It's kinda...not that flash

in my opinion at least

There's way cooler options free in the game

[dusky nest]

Weapons with fancy glow effects

[frozen girder]

AY! My mount came

[dusky nest]

Well now you got extra motivation to do story

[frozen girder]

Thancred reminds me of the main character in FFX

[timid geyser]

Thancred >>>> Tidus tho

[frozen girder]

XD

[leaden ginkgo]

if i start a new class will it start at level 1? im currently 37 summoner but i was wondering if i could level other classes during dungeon queue times

[timid geyser]

All classes start at 1

Except dark knight, machinist and astromancian that start at 30, red mage and samurai at 50 and dancer and gunbreaker at 60

[leaden ginkgo]

ok ty

[frozen girder]

Is there a fast way to get Gil so that I can fast travel?

[timid geyser]

play

you'll get gils

[jade quartz]

play the game

teleport costs shouldn't be a problem

they're a drop in the bucket

the game provides you more than enough gil to cover your needs just by playing normally and doing stuff

[frozen girder]

_>

I'm broke

[hasty musk]

you will quickly become less broke

[frozen girder]

This is expensive

[timid geyser]

I'm on free trial and I keep having to spend my gils cause i'm always reaching the cap lol

[jade quartz]

no

it's not lol

[abstract veldt]

How do I get white gathering scrips ?

[timid geyser]

that's cheap asf

[frozen girder]

I can't afford it XD

I have 0 gil

[jade quartz]

By the time you're at level 80 you'll probably have at least 2 million

[hasty musk]

what did you spend it on

[timid geyser]

use return lol

[frozen girder]

Well I have 24

[jade quartz]

what have you been buying?

[frozen girder]

I've died like 3 ti---

Wait

I can just go die

[jade quartz]

Dying doesn't affect your gil

[frozen girder]

And it will send me home

[timid geyser]

yes

[jade quartz]

...just use return

[frozen girder]

Yeah but each time I die I have to fast travel back

[timid geyser]

but

return

[hasty musk]

use return, that's what it's for

[jade quartz]

Something's seriously wrong if you have 24 gil

[frozen girder]

I already used it ._.

[timid geyser]

also don't forget to do your class's quests

[jade quartz]

have you been going and teleporting around without doing your main quests?

[frozen girder]

That's this?

[jade quartz]

or buying stuff?

[timid geyser]

yes

[jade quartz]

yes

uh

that's the first THM quests

OK yeah you've made some mistakes lol

Go turn in that quest yesterday

[timid geyser]

from level 1 to 50 you get a class quest every 5 levels

[jade quartz]

Why do you need to teleport places when you barely should have ventured outside town yet

[timid geyser]

ANd yeah go turn that in lol

[frozen girder]

I'm level 19

._.

[jade quartz]

oh jesus christ

[hasty musk]

oh boy

[jade quartz]

Go do your class quests

and your main quest

[timid geyser]

oh boi

[frozen girder]

Level 20 now!!

[jade quartz]

what have you been doing to get that high level?

What are you doing.

[frozen girder]

I did main story line

[timid geyser]

Do your class quests

[frozen girder]

ignoring everything else

._.

[hasty musk]

ok that's not that bad

[timid geyser]

they get you spells that you'll need

[jade quartz]

Then how do you have 24 gil?

[frozen girder]

Because I died a lot

And had to teleport back

[jade quartz]

:S

[hasty musk]

how did you lose money teleporting back

[jade quartz]

How did you die?

[hasty musk]

if you died

[timid geyser]

Wait, you're on a preferred server right ?

[frozen girder]

preferred server?

Idk what that is

._.

[timid geyser]

Do you have road to 70 ?

[jade quartz]

What world are you on?

[jade quartz]

Yeah OK

[timid geyser]

yes you do

that's why you levelup so quickly lol

[jade quartz]

you get double exp for your first 90 days of play

[frozen girder]

Oh damn

So I want to level as much as possible ASAP XD

[jade quartz]

First things first, go turn in that quest immediately

drop everything else

Do that quest.

[timid geyser]

and do all your class quests

[jade quartz]

Then do the next three or four class quests that you've missed.

They're vital.

[leaden ginkgo]

wait preferred serfer

[jade quartz]

Then

[peak bear]

Is there a way to browse through armor / glamour sets in-game?

[jade quartz]

tell us how you're dying so often

[timid geyser]

you get gears, cash and spells

[jade quartz]

because that honestly shouldn't be happening.

like for real.

[leaden ginkgo]

should i just also makea new charactwr in a preferrred server? idk if im doing that

[hasty musk]

nah you don't have to

[timid geyser]

Nah

[hasty musk]

you'll get enough exp regardless

[timid geyser]

Not needed

[leaden ginkgo]

ok

[timid geyser]

I'm on balmung and I'm level 57 while on level 51 quests

you don't need the boost that badly

[frozen girder]

Ay!

XD

[hasty musk]

keep going

[jade quartz]

Now do that quest

and the next one and the next one

[timid geyser]

YEs

good

[jade quartz]

until you're locked off from progressing by level

[frozen girder]

How am I supposed to keep my distance from enemies

They always chase me
