fast talon
#

from like..four years ago

visual prawn
#

numpad / does nothing at all

fast talon
#

is num lock on?

visual prawn
#

was

fast talon
#

cause thats the common issue i see when it comes to the auto-walk thing

visual prawn
#

still doing it though with it off

fast talon
#

cuz i once accidentally hit it and got stuck walking

visual prawn
#

/ doesn't affect the walking speed at all while its happening. Once the bug goes away I can use the hotkey again

twilit karma
#

Maybe double check your keybinds? maybe you accidentally rebound that key to like, tab or something

visual prawn
#

Just noticed theres a little walking guy when you have walk turned on.
This symbol doesn't appear during the bug

#

or it does but the bug occurs regardless of it

lyric garden
#

if i open ff14 on steam

#

does it automatically activate my steam stuff?

#

or I mean sub

remote lintel
#

your sub gets activated when you register the game to mog station

#

at least the 30 days do

#

and then your sub if you have any

lyric garden
#

ok

timid geyser
#

that's actually pretty epic

#

#

lol

slate arrow
#

a while, and theoretically yes

honest anvil
#

couple days

#

before next tue is highly possible

robust crow
#

i'm uh

#

i'm starting now

#

lmao

karmic niche
#

so the patch note for 5.4 won't be available until next week right?

vernal urchin
#

#

and the full notes not til patch day itself

karmic niche
#

slate arrow
#

No

karmic niche
#

i see

#

i swear i saw a drop

#

that was pants

molten fog
slate arrow
#

Pants and gloves only drop in e7s and e6s respectively

faint flare

!faq savageloot

zinc orbitBOT

Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze

@robust crow I was able to rush Yokai event from scratch in three days with max level BLU

#

So still time for sure

molten fog
warped nest
#

@molten fog for future reference, lvl 50/60/70 dungeons are no good for exp

molten fog
#

oh

jade quartz
#

And clear the dungeon

warped nest
#

They were the endgame dungeons in their respective expansions so they aren't designed for exp in mind

#

Any exp gain was added when a newer expansion was released

jade quartz
#

They give tomestones instead

molten fog
#

i cant find my tomestones

warped nest
#

Currency window?

slate arrow
#

Currency screen

molten fog
#

kk found it

#

should i just use my allagan ones now?

jade quartz
#

They’re all Allagan ones

warped nest
#

Allagan Tomestone of Poetics can be used to purchase the respective (old) endgame gears at lvl 50/60/70

#

Phantasmagoria and Allegory are lvl 80 stuff, so don't worry about them for now

jade quartz
#

You ought to buy ironworks equipment with them

fast talon
#

Quick question, the numbers you see in the duty finder when youre at Duty Roulette, like how much XP + Gil it's gonna give, is that already the boosted value if you play as the adventure in need role?

warm snow
#

The adventurer in need values?

#

Those are for playing the needed role but they're in addition to your normal roulette rewards

leaden ginkgo
#

I have question. Is it needed to give real information: name, surname, birthday.... before subscription? I'm playing on my account trial but want to buy full access soon

warm snow
#

It should have all the info it needs from your account

#

Outside cc info for your sub etc.

hello im trying to play the game trough my steam version its opening the FFXIV launcher tried logging in says expired or somthing need help

silver ruin
#

you either bought the base game andonly used hte free 30 days, or your sub ran out

#

most likely

honest anvil
#

do level 80 and level 70 gears get synced to level 50 dungeons the same amount?

obsidian patio
worthy basin
#

damn!

#

2160 days

#

that's like 5.9 years

obsidian patio
#

I’ve basically been playing since the game came out for PS4, around patch 2.25

honest anvil
#

is rank 4 vet rewards max rank then?

obsidian patio
#

Yes

#

The veteran reward system used to be a lot longer, with it including a bunch of the stuff that you could buy from Jonathas.

#

Before the system get reworked, it ended at like 1400 days of sub for the Squall outfit

honest anvil
#

1400 days

honest anvil
#

for squall outfit?

#

that’s insane

#

i’m glad it got reworked to probably 330 days

obsidian patio
#

Behemoth mount was one of the rewards

worthy basin
#

is the code in the mogstation region free?

short minnow
#

So, new to the discord, and looking to see if anyone else has run into the problem I'm having, or knows of a work around.

I've run into a problem with MSQ progression. I'm effectively stuck.
Next MSQ quest required three Hard trials to be unlocked and done before I can continue;
Bowl of Embers (Hard)
The Navel (Hard)
The Howling Eye (Hard)

The first of which, comes from Thancred..... in the waking sands. Problem is, in my progression, Thancred is no longer there. He's at the Rising Stones. And does not offer the needed quest.

What do? >.>

obsidian patio
#

@short minnow look for the quest “A Recurring Problem” from minfilia in the waking sands

honest anvil
#

next time that happens, check pre-req for the quest; certain unlock quests need to be unlocked via other quests

short minnow
#

Thats how I found this in the first place, checking pre-reqs for the next quest in line.

#

I'm just following the MSQ chain trying to get through ARR/Post-ARR and ran into this weird spot where these three totally un-related Hard Trials are required to be done before the next quest can be done

honest anvil
#

when pre-req has its own pre-req, that happens

wintry chasm
#

It's not that unrelated plot wise

short minnow
#

Thats besides the point currently.

wintry chasm
#

sure sure

short minnow
#

So Minfilia is no longer at the Waking Sands either. Shes at the Rising Stones. And that quest mentioned isn't offered by her.

#

Papalymo is still here at the Waking Sands and offers the second of the Hard Trials, but I have to do the first one from Thancred before he'll give me the quest.

obsidian patio
#

Can you share a pic of your quest journal and how the waking sands looks quest-wise? Might be something else.

short minnow
#

I only have one active quest atm and its for the immortal flames.

#

Which part of the journal do you want to see?

hasty musk
#

active quests and completed quests

obsidian patio
#

Completed quests in the “chronicles of a new era - primals” section

frozen girder
#

Do I have to do a quest to make my mount fly?

#

Looks like you need to do the Ifrit HM duty

#

Simply unlocking it isn’t enough

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

Flying is unlocked through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.

Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

Upon obtaining the Black Chocobo mount you are also given an Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/

How do I summon the Potatoe god?

hasty musk
#

?

frozen girder
#

Wait

short minnow
#

Could swear I've done that dungeon five times in the last couple days

frozen girder
#

So I have to collect thingys on the map to fly

hasty musk
#

In expansion areas, yes

frozen girder
#

But it's also story locked

whole wasp
#

Only in Heavensward onwards

silver ruin
#

you might have been doing normal

whole wasp
#

Yes

short minnow
#

That is entirely possible >.>

frozen girder
#

So I can't fly at all yet

hasty musk
#

normal has 4 people, hard has 8

whole wasp
#

You do the whole main story quest on foot. Then you get to fly aftern

#

THIS MOUNT IS SO CUTE

I could spend hours just watching it jump

#

So now that I have a mount

I should probably start the class quests

Sitting at level 45 with the level 10 class quest

silver ruin
#

please do your class quests

#

they unlock skills

obsidian patio

Either in your armoury or your inventory

#

Depending on how you have it set up to where new equipment goes

frozen girder
#

XD

short minnow
#

lol that'll be me with my Dragoon soon, Fire. already at level 65 and I'm not even done with post-ARR yet.

#

gonna wind up being 70+ and just starting to get access to the 50+ DRG quests.

frozen girder
#

I wanted my Carbuncle ¯_(ツ)_/¯

short minnow
#

tbf, Carbuncles are adorable. Worth it.

frozen girder
#

I bought it 2 days ago

hasty musk
#

please, please do your job quests

frozen girder
#

I didn't know I had to unlock it 😭

hasty musk
#

they give you very important things

frozen girder
#

I might just like

#

Finish Shadowbringers as a Thamaturge

hasty musk
#

don't

#

not even as a joke

#

don't

short minnow
#

Oh I know, FAQ xD

Just can't do any more of the job quests until I get farther into the MSQ.

silver ruin
#

think they meant to glows_Fire

short minnow
#

level progression is very much out of sync with where I am in the story.

hasty musk
#

that's just how it be

silver ruin

can always start a second class to sponge some ofhte exp

worthy basin
hasty musk
short minnow
#

I did. I started playing as WHM. Which is already at level 58, too 🤣

worthy basin
#

for hw, sb and shb, you need to collect aether currents

frozen girder
#

I just joined a Grand Company

#

I'm not that far

hasty musk
#

ok, just checking

wintry chasm
#

Literally no one will literally play with you in level 30+ content if you don't do your class quests. You'll in all likelihood get massively shit on or straight up kicked

frozen girder
#

I'm still doing level 20 content :o

wintry chasm
#

Just making the point~

worthy basin
#

just finish sylph management

frozen girder
#

The leveling with Road to 70 is so out of wack I'm doing level 20 content at level 50 XD

worthy basin
#

which is like a level 20 msq

hasty musk
#

what have you been doing to get that high

frozen girder
#

Story ._.

hasty musk
#

that

frozen girder
#

I'm level 48

worthy basin
short minnow
#

Thats not wrong, really. I was getting 4-5 levels out of one Leveling Roulette on WHM when I first started it. Was kinda nuts

hasty musk
#

I don't remember being that high level at level 20 MSQ

frozen girder
#

I'm getting like 220% EXP

wintry chasm
#

That's....way higher than you should have buff or no buff but that's besides the point I guess

#

unless the MSQ changes really fucking boosted that xp

frozen girder
#

Wait am I not supposed to do every side quest except the class one?

wintry chasm
#

that much

hasty musk
#

no

wintry chasm
#

^

frozen girder
#

:3

wintry chasm
#

No Glow

Yellow side quests are completely ignorablr

wintry chasm
#

The main ones are just the bluequest

#

Which aren't all class quests fyi

obsidian hornet
#

Can you get King Slime Crown right now?

faint flare
#

No

normal sparrow
#

I have been treating every zone like WoW, being a completionist for Q my level haha

wintry chasm
#

No

obsidian hornet
#

Ok thanks.

frozen girder
#

I've done every yellow one on the side

wintry chasm
#

It was from the timed Dragon Quest event

#

Could come back

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Who knows

hasty musk
#

yellow side quests are quite literally useless in 99% of cases

worthy basin
#

yokai came back, that could come back too.

faint flare
#

Dont expect it anytime soon sinxe we had it recently

#

Like literally this year

whole wasp
#

I did that too until i reached a new city and the sidequest blinded me

frozen girder
#

"Literally this year" is like... 11 months

#

._.

obsidian hornet
#

Ah took a year break. Darn. Also assuming I can't get Postmoogle Cap either.

wintry chasm
#

Postmoogle cap you can get

faint flare
#

Post moggle is just a quest line

short minnow
#

I just want the Rainmaker hairstyle. Which hasn't been obtainable since like.... 2018. 😐

frozen girder
#

I'm super excited about this game

wintry chasm
#

You need to do the postmoogle questline in ARR

molten fog
#

what do i do if i dont have a 'weathered head knife' that an npc supposedly gave to me? for the leatherworking questline

hasty musk
#

buy one

whole wasp
#

Buy another one

wintry chasm
#

This questline

molten fog
#

from where? btw i cant access the online market or whatever its called

wintry chasm
#

NPC should sell it

hasty musk
#

npc vendor

wintry chasm
#

in the marketplace

obsidian hornet
#

@wintry chasm ty, pretty long quest chain wow

molten fog
#

ty ill check it

frozen girder
#

I'm sad

wintry chasm
#

It literally like, has you go all over the ARR areas and meet all the NPCs you met over X and Y questlines and whatnot

worthy basin
frozen girder
#

All the loot from the class quests is like 40 levels under mine ._.

wintry chasm
#

I'd almost go as far as to say it's like, an ARR retrospective

short minnow
frozen girder
#

Ooooh this one gives me a new skill

#

:3

faint flare
#

Yes

short minnow
#

I wind up buying gear off the MB as I level DRG. Always wind up 15 or more levels above where I am in the MSQ

wintry chasm
faint flare
#

Thats why they're extremely important

#

Like

#

Literally MANDATORY

wintry chasm
faint flare
#

And extremelu high priority

worthy basin
#

the only gear that is worth keeping is the poetics imo

frozen girder
#

They're super pointless? Guess I don't need to do class quests

worthy basin
#

other gear is junk or turn ins

faint flare
#

No

#

You're literally going to be kicked

#

From every duty

frozen girder

#

I like playing Thamaturge tho

wintry chasm
#

Black Mage

short minnow
wintry chasm
#

Is literally thaumaturgy

#

with more skills

frozen girder
#

Black Mage is overrated

faint flare
#

There's 0 reason not to advance to yournjob

hasty musk
#

it is not

frozen girder
#

Thaumaturgy > Black Mage

faint flare
#

You're literally missing 95% of your kit

hasty musk
#

you will not progress the game without it

molten fog
#

k game decided to strip all of my clothes off once i equip the leatherwork knife

silver ruin
#

or updated skills

silver ruin
#

you're literally impeding their play at that point

hasty musk
#

and yours

faint flare
#

Its basically griefing

wintry chasm
#

Glow seriously don't troll

molten fog
wintry chasm
#

Um nah

#

Since you're just level 1

frozen girder
wintry chasm
#

wouldn't bother with buying crafting gear

frozen girder
#

Okay I love these class quests

#

XD

wintry chasm
#

Just put on your racial starting gear or something Bean

#

For now

short minnow
#

Subsequent runs since then have been substantially better.

frozen girder
#

Is there a way to like...

#

Dim my Carbuncle

#

It blinds me >_>

#

this is a grave you dug with your own hands my friend

how do i increase the text/textbox?

._.

wintry chasm
wintry chasm
frozen girder
silver ruin
#

lower your screens overall brightness then

wintry chasm
#

^ or something

#

A carbuncle is bright but it's by faaaaaaaar not that bright

short minnow
#

WHM's Holy AoE is the one that gets me. xD

oblique yew
short minnow
#

Turning down monitor brightness a little should do. Not sure theres a way to turn off spell effects in the graphics settings. I'm looking now, out of curiosity.

oblique yew
#

nvm

#

i got it

wintry chasm
#

you should just be able to rightclick the text box and hit

#

ah good

simple pine
#

for shb hunt trains do you get a t8 materia every time? or is it chance? i am getting full poetic reward but not always a meteria item

#

hi, does Astrologians cards all the same or not?

short minnow
#

No wonder I was having trouble finding it. Its in character settings instead of graphics. What an odd place to put it.

obsidian patio
#

Half buff melee/tanks more, other half buff ranged/casters/healers more

silver ruin
#

no, ive gotten varying rewards based on the amount of people/amount of damage/aggro my party puts out, can be only tomes/nuts or can be + t7 materia, +t8 materia or both

wintry chasm
obsidian patio
#

Besides that they’re all identical in how much they boost

sage sapphire
#

@obsidian patio someone told me that but i don't know how to use them like that

silver ruin
#

use draw then drag the cursor over the card and read hte descriptions

obsidian patio
#

When you draw a card it’ll have a blue or purple border on the gauge

faint flare
#

If its a blue boarder, use it on a tank/melee

#

Purple ranged

silver ruin
#

uh what

#

isnt it ranged + healer and tanks + melees

sage sapphire
#

am confused

faint flare
#

Look at your jon gauge

short minnow
#

It should be..

System -> Graphics -> Effects

But this is: Character Configuration -> Control Settings -> Battle Effects section

Not what I'd call a normal place to put a graphics control.

faint flare
#

If its a blue boarder around the card

#

It goes on melees

frank walrus
#

if you play in English the easiest i found is:
card with a in name goes to melee
card without goes to range/caster

faint flare
#

If its purple, it goes on ranged

silver ruin
#

^

#

the boarder they mean is the boarder outside hte symbol on this job gauge

outer plank
#

purple outline boarder is range/healers

silver ruin
#

yes

faint flare
#

No its ranged

silver ruin
faint flare
#

Nice edit

outer plank
sage sapphire
outer plank
#

blue is dps/tanks

faint flare
#

There's very little thinking on cards

frank walrus
#

bAlance speAr Arrow -> melee
ewer bole whatever the third one is -> ranged

faint flare
#

Draw > check the job gauge boarder > if blue, tank/melee goes it, if purple, range/healer gets it

#

Go about youe day

#

You have your entire cast bar to check

sage sapphire
#

so why a monk told me to give him the ewer!!

faint flare
#

Because there's no ranged

#

For them to give it

outer plank
#

3% dps is still a dps increase

faint flare
#

It increases damage for all jobs, but further still for the correct role

outer plank
#

its just if there was a range

faint flare
#

!action the Balance

outer plank
#

it would be 6%

zinc orbitBOT
#
**the Balance** : lvl 30 AST (1.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases damage dealt by a party member or self by 6% if target is melee DPS or tank, or 3% for all other roles.
Duration: 15s Additional Effect: Grants a Solar Seal when used in combat

※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.

sage sapphire
#

oh

faint flare
#

6% for tank/melee, 3% for rest

#

And vice via for ranged cards

outer plank
#

so just pick what ever job is the best for the given situtation

sage sapphire
#

thanks that make so much sense

#

one time a machinist went so mad because i gave him an arrow

leaden ginkgo
#

-.-

outer plank
#

?

leaden ginkgo
#

That's dumb.

faint flare
#

Arrow is primarily meant for melees

outer plank
#

maybe he thinks its like how the old arrow work KEK

sage sapphire
#

so am just like i need to ask

fast talon
#

Just a small question, do all races sit in the Flying Chair mount the same way?

faint flare
#

Even if you only have 1 dps type, you should still give cards to the correct role unless one dps is doing absurd amount of damage

fast talon
sage sapphire
#

it is still hard to heal and buff at the same time

#

and doing some dps

faint flare
#

Its just practice

outer plank
#

as you get familiar with your job it becomes easier

faint flare
#

Abuse your cast times to make decisions

obsidian patio
outer plank
#

or be me, who hasnt touched my 70 ast in like year until today

#

gotta cap all those jobs though

sage sapphire
#

hahaha

fast talon
#

Even gender is a factor? Interesting.

wintry chasm
#

Just googling stuff like "Viera flying chair" gets you a lot

sage sapphire
#

thanks for the help ^^

wintry chasm
short minnow
#

Yeah, juggling the different things is kinda hard at first. I'm only just learning how to handle adding in DPS between healing and cleansing debuffs off people.

Though there are some instances where you just can't do DPS. Like when you wind up in King Mogs Hard Trial and the other healer goes afk for the whole thing, leaving you to manage the entire group XD

#

We made it without any deaths. I dunno how. But we did 🤣

fast talon
#

I wonder if using a fantasia because of the way you sit on a mount is one of the dumbest reasons to use a fantasia

frozen girder
#

Aaaaaaaaaall caught up on my class quests now >_>

short minnow
#

There was prodigious use of Medica II in that trial.

outer plank
#

i went from whm to ast

#

i already miss holy

#

i dont like healers regardless

obsidian patio
#

Moggle Mog HM is pretty chaotic if the tanks don’t hold onto the tank moogles

outer plank
#

not on controller atleast

fast talon
#

I like slapping the ground as scholar

wintry chasm
faint flare
#

Still sad unreal isnt moogle mog

short minnow
#

Yeah the tanks didn't do a very good job with holding aggro on all the adds. Which is why I'm surprised we made it through with just me healing.

#

Was quite hectic.

outer plank
#

titan unreal is gonna be funny. but i don't get why people are scared of it (never done it on content)

#

its not a savage fight right?

obsidian patio
#

Only the king and tank moogles can actually be tanked

faint flare
#

Unreal is extreme

wintry chasm
#

It's an extreme fight Isiah

short minnow
#

I just made sure to toss regen on the tanks every so often and hit the party with Medica II to get caught up on all the weirdness and hit everyone with a regen.

obsidian patio
#

The rest just do their own thing

outer plank
#

i know, but people are treating it like its extremely diffcult

faint flare
#

But titan extreme was a monster on release

#

So vets have EXTREME Respect for it

outer plank
#

i dont know, people have gotten alot better at this game.

obsidian patio
#

The servers were pretty laggy back in 2.1, which made it especially hard

wintry chasm
#

I think the whole Titan thing is a little overblown since I hear one of the main reasons titan EX was a nightmare when released was that there was no min ilvl requirement and like, gearing up was pretty hard so you'd literally have healers and shit who could get one shot

faint flare
#

The worse netcode/lag made dodging casts hard

#

Even Though these days the casts do seem pretty fast for stuff light Weights

#

Plus Perma death if you fall

#

Vets have ptsd of it

short minnow
#

Well, I was hoping to get this trial done and see if I'm just being a forgetful idiot. But... someone kill me now plz 😂

outer plank
#

you're doing this in the middle of night where all the normal people are asleep or have done there trial roulette for the day

short minnow
#

ik >.<

I don't often get a chance to play during normal hours

#

So its kinda hit n miss

timid geyser
#

Did you get queue ?

#

Did it pop ?

#

I can hop in rq to queue with you

short minnow
#

it popped just now

#

finally

timid geyser
#

okay nice

short minnow
#

Ok so, now that its done.

I either derped, or doing it again fixed it. More than likely I derped and thought I'd done it, but hadn't.

#

So, thats a thing.

have fun with Titan

timid geyser
#

Titan (hard) actually isn't that HARD

short minnow
#

The Howling Eye (Hard) is the next one for me, and thats..... Garuda

#

Shouldn't be too bad?

honest anvil
#

it’s alright. just enjoy 1st time experience 🙂

short minnow
#

I mean, the normal Garuda is a cakewalk really

green grail
#

"hard" is normal, except at a level cap

frank walrus
#

i ran out of my allagan coins for doman restoration - is there anything i could buy for poetics to donate instead?

honest anvil
#

someone told me demi crystal .. never tried it myself though

frank walrus
#

those got nerfed not too long ago i think :( they used to sell for 500 gil but they're 50gil now

honest anvil
#

that’s unfortunate ...

wintry chasm
#

and then trade those in for restoration for a small profit

green grail
#

i was doing clear demimateria i think

#

pretty good vendor value

wintry chasm
#

also moonstones are good and can get them with GC seals

wintry chasm
gaunt anvil
#

So i want to try out FF14 do get it on Steam or get the actual Launcher on the website?

wintry chasm
#

I'd do the actual site, I find that it's generally less of a pain in the ass

gaunt anvil
#

kk

frank walrus
#

ooo, i'll look into the moonstones and the allagan pieces - thank you!

green grail
#

tier 3 of clear demi is still expensive i think

outer plank
#

@gaunt anvil if the sale is still going on steam if you want that discount

#

unless the client also has

#

a sale

#

but yeah steam tends to fuck up expansions

#

like everytime

gaunt anvil
#

so is this a monthly subscription game?

timid geyser
#

Yeah, I tried getting the trial on steam, it was a pain so i took it on SE's site instead

#

Yes

#

There are 2 sub formats tho

outer plank
#

@gaunt anvil oh right play on the trial

gaunt anvil
#

I heard it was free to like a certain point

outer plank
#

trial lets you go up to lv 60 for free

gaunt anvil
#

yea i just got the trial version lol

outer plank
#

so base game + 1 expansion

timid geyser
#

Play the trial, thanks to it I started paying for the game after level 60

outer plank
#

if you buy the game, youll be taken of the trial

timid geyser
#

which is cool

outer plank
#

so ideally you wanna maximize your time spent before buying in

gaunt anvil
#

true

timid geyser
#

Only con is that I had to be an elezen for 2 expans because I had no viera access

outer plank
#

but there are also annoying restrictions that people just end up wanting to get rid of

timid geyser
#

well the base game and an expan

outer plank
#

you can't trade, you can't tell, you cant hold more then a certain amount of gil

#

ect.

short minnow
timid geyser
#

But the free trial is a good experience

outer plank
#

so its up to you if wanna go the full distance, or pay for it, just note that once you do

gaunt anvil
#

yea ill see how FF14 is

outer plank
#

you get 30 free game days, before the sub starts kicking in

gaunt anvil
#

i heard the community is really nice and stuff and i like tht

timid geyser
#

I heard the total opposite of that

#

but so far it's been okay

#

And I didn't really meet any toxic players

leaden ginkgo
#

Guess people have subjective takes and experiences

#

Overall the games community is aight

short minnow
#

My experience with FF14's community has been loads better than say... my initial months spent in WoW, back in the day.

outer plank
#

@timid geyser its just a matter of who you meet, cause you know, its the internet and one or a few bad experinces with people will really skew your opinion

#

i will say this one thing

gaunt anvil
#

oh this is a big download lol

outer plank
#

ffxiv players are way to invested, and too overbearing sometimes

#

that it boarders on toxicity

timid geyser
patent citrus
#

what do you mean? 🤔

#

way invested?

gaunt anvil
#

oof lol

outer plank
#

@patent citrus it means that they are a die hard fanboy and to personally involved with something thats just a game.

#

to the point where they just end becoming almost preachy and demand you do things a certain way

short minnow
#

I've yet to run into anyone remotely like that

patent citrus
#

hmm I think it's good

#

good society has rules and culture

#

if you encourage people to do w/e they want, rather live in a jungle 😂

leaden ginkgo
#

some content demands u to do things a certain way like savage or extremes

#

but other than that who rly cares

teal dragon
#

if i move the game files ill still be able to run it right?

#

i mean the entire game file

frozen girder
#

You get 45* free game days

#

At level 20 they give you a bonus 15

forest laurel
#

uh idk if that's the case anymore

#

I think it's only when you reach a certain level in a preferred server where you get 15 free days?

#

idk

#

or when you buy the game when you're in a preferred server

frozen girder
#

Oh yeah forgot to say the preferred server part

#

I started in a preferred server

frozen girder
#

Wat

#

I got it at level 20

#

You didn't

frozen girder

do I get reward if I turn in an expired tail journal?

No

She calls it yucky

frank walrus

wth khloe omegabruh

forest laurel
#

bitch what kind of materials do you use to make the sticker book

#

that you call it yucky after 2 weeks

#

smh

frank walrus
#

its actually made out of the flesh of her enemies so after 2 weeks its crawling with maggots

plain python
#

it makes with her tail tissue and it got rotten

#

that's why her tail is short

frozen girder
#

I just spent like 20 min trying to realize why I hadn't gotten Black Mage after doing the level 30 quest

frank walrus
#

do ur msq always 🙏

worthy basin
#

what do people means when they say comfortable melds?

frozen girder
#

Is there a way for me to experience the other starting class stories?

halcyon glen
#

Comfy means there are options, so pick whatever you’re most comfortable with

#

It’s usually in reference to either Skill/Spell speed, as that controls your GCD, and Piety for healers since that controls mana regen

#

For example, if your objective is “9 GCDs under No Mercy” for example there’s a number of GCD options that get you there

patent citrus
#

@frozen girder just buy the class weapon and equip it

#

wanna experience marauder? buy the axe

#

white mage? buy the wand/rod

frozen girder
#

And then you can do the whole quest line?

patent citrus
#

yeh

frozen girder
#

Coolio :3

worthy basin
#

if i failed to pentameld into one of my equips, is it automatically the materia's going to be broken or gone?

warped nest
#

Yeah, the materia is lost

patent citrus
#

@frozen girder don't forget to equip the job stone when you switch to clas over 30 😂

Yeah, if you talk to any of the guildleaders they'll introduce the guild and give you a basic weapon

jade quartz

You have to go do the unlock quest.

patent citrus
#

oh really? o_o

#

nice

#

glad someone corrected it

#

to unlock the class you want

#

need to do the job quest in respective city first, find the blue quest

oblique yew
#

do all spellcasting of arcanist gets interrupted if i move even a bit?

jade quartz
#

If it has a cast time, yes

outer plank
#

@oblique yew casting in general yes, some jobs have innately faster cast times, other times (way in the late game), you can meld sps on yourself to make your casts go faster if you're going for a sps build

#

(typically thats usually for black mages)

warped nest
#

Don't worry about spell speed while leveling

#

Just focus on learning your tools

oblique yew
#

nah nah. i am only playing this till lvl 10. then i plan on switching to rogue

outer plank
#

good luck then

warped nest
#

Same thing: don't worry about skill speed while leveling

#

XD

patent citrus
#

you gonna need 2 classes+ to switch or you will be overlevel'd 🤔

outer plank
#

doesnt matter if they're overleveled

#

in fact i think being overleveled is a good thing

#

Heya, do you guys think there will be a holiday Mogstation sale? Just wondering if I should hold off buying the stuff I want if there will be a discount...

patent citrus
#

we all hope so tatarucry

#

but no confirmation

zealous flower
#

there's some very slight wiggle room in the movement cast interruption

#

you can definitely start moving while the cast bar is still on screen and it'll still go off but it's only like the last 0.1-0.2 sec or something, might have to do with server latency or doing it at the right time in the server update cycle or something

#

haven't really looked into it, just some casual experimentation

wispy parcel
#

Its to do with server latency

#

It hasnt registered youre walking yet

oblique yew
#

i am confused. i cant be just lvl 10 to get into rogue? do i have to do my lvl 10 class quest as well?

faint flare
#

You need to do your questd

#

Your level doesn't mean alot...its always quests to unlock stuff

open rivet
#

do i have to do my lvl 10 class quest as well?
it's the initial lv. 10 class quest that unlocks getting additional classes

zealous flower
#

yeah level's needed to unlock the quests themselves and the quests unlock everything

open rivet
#

they'll be like "hey if you wanna have more classes feel free, we don't mind" at the end

how do i find grade 1 carbonized matter

When will the next Road To 70 buff be, most likely?

green grail
#

uhh elaborate

#

if you mean preferred servers then there's some in each region currently already

#

but road to 70 is a once-per-character buff that lasts 90 days from character creation or as long as the server is preferred

open ember
#

Perferred status changes every patch

#

So for patch 5.4, there will be other servers who'll be perferred, and some who become standard or those that become congested

#

They never announce those before patch maintenance

#

And road to 70 doesn't change. There is no "next road to 70"

#

They won't implement road to 80 until 6.0

Hey guys, what’s the fastest way to level up an alt healer class from 70 to 80?

open ember

Do you have access to Bozja

#

Or are you working on the story

lucid pumice
#

No but I could unlock it probably, I’ve completed the main Shb story and a little bit after it

Bozja is repetitive but relatively fast

#

Or you can do dungeons

honest anvil

spam dungeons and bozja

lucid pumice

timid geyser

got lucky on jade but for amethyst it took me ages

honest anvil
#

you can just buy stuff for job quests from market

timid geyser
#

Too expensive

#

I don't have 40k to spend for a quest

#

I'd rather keep them for other stuff

open coral
honest anvil
#

Whatever was needed cost 40k on your server?

timid geyser
#

40k for 20

#

So i checked on other servers using the bot

#

So I just gather myself, gets me some exp and extra mats for crafter quests (in case they're used)

honest anvil
#

i dont remember paying that much 🤔

#

but god blessed Yojimbo in this case

Which Eden raid does Thancred Car drops?

Slidecast Timing

• Slidecasting is the ability to
move at the end of the cast as the game registers your cast to be complete.
• Mistiming it too early will cause an interruption and moving late will cause your next queued hardcast to get interrupted. (ping relevant)
• Here is a visual (courtesy of Cecilia Atwood) of the estimated time the game snaps the cast to be complete:

potent shale
#

Like legit it is

#

I did the math and from experience myself, sometimes depending on which server and data center you are in can determine whether or not you buy the items itself

#

I skip the crafting/gathering part in DoH/DoL quest because it actually cheaper to do it

#

Like legit

#

The cost to craft the item is much higher than buying it whole sometimes

timid geyser
#

I buy on the MB when it's not overpriced

#

and 2k for a raw amethyst is overpriced

neat mauve
#

whats the best method for leveling mining

#

do i mine things that i have 100% success rate on

timid geyser
#

mine stuff that is at your level

#

and buy a survival manual for more exp

neat mauve
#

oh, where do i buy that

timid geyser
#

Or do Ishgard resto if you have it

timid geyser
neat mauve
#

whats ishgard resto

zealous flower
#

you get the extra good ones for starting on the lv50 tier of job quests (i think?) but you're probably not there yet lol

#

ishgard restoration is a lv60 thing

dry jolt
#

Is there a way to "load appearance data" without backing out of creation and coming back in?

timid geyser

#

yeah

#

im caught up to 5.3

Then go do this quest to unlock it : Towards the Firmament

#

It's in the Foundation
X:9.7 Y:11.5

That's good XP?

timid geyser
#

I started yesterday, I'm level 46

Only exp boost comes from my survival manual

#

Are you on a preferred server ?

#

Ishgard Restoration is very good xp for crafters and gatherers

neat mauve
#

im on Gilgamesh

timid geyser
#

Do you have road to 70 ?

neat mauve
#

i have no clue what that is

open coral
#

Although the caveat for crafters is that you need high enough CP rating to make the turn ins at a high enough collectible quality.

#

Otherwise it's a waste of gil and time

neat mauve
timid geyser
open coral
#

lol

timid geyser
#

I put all the level 80 stuff on the MB since I don't need it

#

not yet at least

open coral

Road to 70 is the "preferred server" buff that gives +100% xp gains from all sources. @neat mauve

timid geyser
#

Does it stack with manuals ?

open coral
#

It should stack with everything.

timid geyser
#

that's pretty epic, that makes a shitton of exp

open coral

I know that it definitely stacks with rested bonus, armory, equipment bonuses, and food.

not sure about the specific demographic but overall it 4x Germany's population

nothing that's going to be up to date, as it requires players with an ACT plugin to update prices @steel finch

but universalis is pretty much your best (and iirc really only) choice

timid geyser

there's also a lot of people not from NA who go in NA servers

#

more than the opposite

You'll rarely meet an american in EU/JP servers but meeting Europeans and Japanese in NA servers is more common (more for europeans than japanese tho)

this is a really dumb question, but how do i exit dungeons and trials on keyboard and mouse?

open ember
#

Press U on the keyboard

worn bone
#

like the big blue glowing thing only lets me target it

open ember
#

Opens up duty menu

#

There's a button for leave duty

#

On the top

worn bone

and if I finished it it doesn't "cancel" it when i do this right it just gets me back to the map?

open ember
#

What do you mean by cancel

#

If its finished you're free to leave with no penalty

#

Because its done

worn bone
#

like normally on ps4 i would just walk up to the big blue exit, target it, press the same button again and it would ask if i wanna leave

open ember
#

Its the same on PC

Right click to interact

#

Twice

worn bone
#

OHHHH okay i was left clicking

open ember

How I explained is the other way to leave an instance

is this game capped at 60fps

No you can change that in settings

No reason to be above 60 though

i just get a seratonin rush when my frames are above 60 lmao

even tho i can't notice it

#

one more and I'll shut up for a while...how to change font size of chat log?

the chat prompt font size option doesn't seem to do anything

#

oh in the log details tab

try log details

yeah got it

#

why does the game look worse when i switch from HD to Full HD?

#

is full hd 1080p?

worthy basin
#

yeah

oblique yew
#

and hd is 720p?

worthy basin
#

yea

#

is the upcoming patch 5.4 is the last patch to get new recipes for the crafters? or they add new recipes in x.5?

lost grove
#

What's a good support type dps ?

worthy basin
#

dancer

#

and astro...oops don't mind this you said dps.

twilit arch
#

5.5 will likely have new recipes but they will probably be mostly glamour stuff

oblique yew
worthy basin
#

you can adjust the size of the hud though in the hud layout

lost grove
#

@worthy basin lol

oblique yew
#

i am so stupid

lost grove
#

What about rdm?

worthy basin
oblique yew
#

it is just HUD settings. I thought it was graphic settings

worthy basin
#

and one party buff (embolden).

lost grove
#

My alt need at least one dps . What about cure n raise on them?

worthy basin
#

but out of the 3 casters, rdm is the breeziest to play.

#

rdm is being memed as a rezbot though

#

if you like rezzing and not being a healer, that's good.

also good in group in case a healer wipes, as they can rez and heal also

fast talon
#

So just how much does Adventure in Need really add to the rewards? I've heard it's pretty small in the grand scheme of things but are there any precise values?

patent citrus

small, but probably quicker queue

#

@fast talon think it’s like a 25% bonus or something close to that

#

wow that's pretty nice

fast talon
#

25% bonus to what though, the large chunk you get from doing it once a day or the value that's written on the queue page?

#

i always do my roulette using role in need, without knowing the rewards lol

worthy basin
#

is remelding the crafter/gatherer's gear happens often?

patent citrus
#

not sure about the exp

outer plank
#

@worthy basin well since this the last crafting gear we’re getting then no. Usually it seems the melds introduced in balance last like 2-3 patch cycles before you need to switch over to the newer set

worthy basin
little swift
#

The melds are a predicted threshold set

#

The one that will likely last is the tentative high tier set

#

Usually breaks the bank though unless you constantly craft

twilit arch
#

5.5 stuff likely won't need new set of melds

outer plank
#

@worthy basin 5.5 isn’t gonna change anything except for crafted glamour weapons I believe

twilit arch
#

as i said, its largely going to be glamour items

#

5.4 is where the new recipes are going to set the threshold for things

little swift
#

It'll last you into 6.0 leveling phase though

outer plank
#

You’re set till the end of the next expansion using the high tier melds

worn bone
#

you can't get Livia sas Junius' weapons can you?

twilit arch
#

nope

#

No gun arm cannon sword job

#

So no

worthy basin
little swift
#

It'll be fine to use just consider supplementing with some hq mats if you need

sorry if i'm asking here, i tried asking in the balance. I got ignored and stuff. 😆

That set seems fine

D1 west mirror and D2 east mirror right?

outer plank
kind eagle
#

During post-add phase

outer plank
#

It’s well worth going for role bonus if you’re not leveling an alt

worthy basin
#

materia viii is going to sell like hotcakes in patch day!

little swift
kind eagle
#

After light rampant

#

the stack or split part

little swift
#

Only one would be mirror scythe/axe

#

But thats not post adds

kind eagle
#

after LR

#

the part before adds

little swift
#

Depends on the macro

#

And where the mirrors appear

#

They can appear on intercardinals as well

kind eagle
#

i cleared add twice without knowing how to do that

#

cause i mark the healer

#

i just follow

little swift
#

Melees usually take Nw/n or ne/e

#

You shouldn't really be following

#

If its fake banish you'll kill your partner

kind eagle
#

i got time to run

little swift
#

Jp doesn't do scythe uptime so it doesn't matter which one you are

gritty oracle
#

ST as in Side Tank?

little swift
#

Or secondary tank

gritty oracle
#

wow. Is it a JP thing? In Crystal, we always call it OT or offtank.

little swift
#

Yah its sorta a JP thing

#

Not that it matters

#

Means the same thing

What is the best option for crafting set?

gritty oracle
#

what level?

gusty furnace
#

I currently got itemlevel 451 (left side full white scrip level 470 stuff) right side HQ 430)

#

Was thinking of pentamelding Aesthete

#

But is it truly worth it?

worthy basin
#

only if you are in the endgame crafting, and like to compete with the firmament.

gusty furnace
#

I mean i can (with consumable) make Duskcourt cloth

#

so i am looking to go all in :3

slate arrow
#

You'll need Aesthete's gear if you wanna craft 5.4 gear without needing a lot of HQ materials

gusty furnace
#

Ok : )

worthy basin
#

aesthete + the relic i guess

gusty furnace
#

Since my plan as of now was pentameld one item at a time(since it sucks and takes a while)

#

since it needs a certain amount of materia to outweigh the level470 ones

#

Currently got the right one

worthy basin
#

that's not the hq one

#

get the hq one

gusty furnace
#

mmm :o?

#

Ah yes the aesthete

worthy basin
#

try to compare the hq aesthete and to the current main hand of yours

gusty furnace
#

i know HQ = 110%

#

Instead of 100%

timid geyser
#

So how do I get some ok tier gear at level 50 ?

#

on miner

fresh lodge
gusty furnace
#

Kiyo can recommend using leves to get to level 51

slate arrow
#

You normally don't, buy the vendor gear in ishgard which is level 51 instead

gusty furnace
#

:3

gusty furnace
fresh lodge
#

What does that even mean?

#

HQ = 110%

worthy basin
#

it doesn't work that way

gusty furnace
#

Well in essence HQ items receives 10% added stats

#

to their normal peers

gloomy ice
gusty furnace
#

from what i read

fresh lodge
#

Oh you meant stats

worthy basin
gusty furnace
#

well shit

worthy basin
#

really expensive

timid geyser
#

I'll just level the needed crafters and gatherers to make it myself

gusty furnace
#

So in essence....Bite the sour apple go for the expensive HQ aesthete

timid geyser
#

I'd rather spend time over spending my precious gil

gusty furnace
#

:3

timid geyser
#

I need my precious gil for minions and mounts and house

fresh lodge
#

NQ gear is worthless

open coral
#

NQ gear is for if you only care about the cosmetic value and want to get it cheap.

gusty furnace
#

Thanks aniLoves

twilit arch
#

if you have any intention of being a serious end-game crafter, you should have HQ gear

gusty furnace
#

I´ll go punch my wallet till it cries a river

slate arrow
#

It's possible to craft it yourself if you don't mind taking the long way

fresh lodge
#

Could always just get the relic tool

gusty furnace
#

true

#

can make NQ Aesthete gear

worthy basin
#

relic tool is like the bis of this expansion

gusty furnace
#

might be lucky KatieThonk

fluid tangle
#

Quick question about bozja, does my item level matter in there ? I was rank 6 and got 2-hit blasted by a random rank 5 mob

gusty furnace
#

Relic tool?

worthy basin
#

skysung tool

fresh lodge
#

Ilvl doesn't matter

twilit arch
#

nop, bozja has an ilvl sync

#

5s mobs hurt everyone

fresh lodge
#

Rank 5 mobs hurt like hell

gusty furnace
#

so Skysung is the "Ishgardian Rebuilding" thing?

fluid tangle
#

damn, the mobs there don't play around then, rather annoying

fresh lodge
#

You need a tank to tank them

timid geyser
#

I'll take care about having HQ gear when i'll be lvl 80

#

but by that time the new expan will be out and i'll have to get to level 90

fluid tangle
twilit arch
#

that's...why i said end-game crafter

#

for leveling NQ is fine for the most part

fresh lodge
#

You want HQ gear while levelling anyways

twilit arch
#

can be a bit more painful without HQ

fresh lodge
#

It makes it easier to craft still HQ/high collectability

twilit arch
#

but its not that necessarily to go with HQ

fresh lodge
#

And if you make your own gear, there is no reason to not make HQ gear

worthy basin
#

also the level 70 scrips gear is universal

#

and can last until 80

twilit arch
#

also that comment was largely for Binne

#

so

timid geyser
gusty furnace
#

ty :3

#

@twilit arch - so in essence what i read

#

the relic tool is one you can increase over and over again?

#

with oddly specific materials?

twilit arch
#

possibly, we don't know what the next stage is going to entail

#

but yes it's similar to combat job relic weapon in that over the next few patches we'll get upgrades to it

frozen girder
#

Is there any use for old trash gear other than selling it?

worthy basin
#

to your grand company

frozen girder
#

What are those

twilit arch
#

green or better quality gear can be turned in to your grand company for grand company seals

#

but you need to be sergeant second class to do so

open coral
#

Basically they're a way to convert extra gear into GC currency

frozen girder
#

So I can sell gray gear no worries?

timid geyser
#

ANd for non colored rarity just use them to increase your desynth level

worthy basin
#

yes

frozen girder
#

desynth?

timid geyser
#

I kept everything that ain't green or above in order to DESYNTH
