Thanks
@ripe hound yes
i would check in like 30 mins - an hour
It repeats the last Iaijutsu skill you used.
Also can you weave a Meikyo Shisui after Iaijutsu?
yes
So Iaijutsu, then Meikyo for 3 quick stickers?
You can, yeah. It’s part of the main opener really.
then iaijustu again
Nice
not necessarily
Sometimes you don't use Meikyo to get 3 sticker?
kk
1 2 3 1 2 higanbana, 3, meikyo
yeah sometimes you get 2 of the same sticker
and pause
cause yeah. get 1 stick manually, put it on, finish the other sticker
then meikyo
to get 2 stickers. iajutsu
then final sticker
I see
so I checked the other account and it says recurring payment...does that mean it will go through without an email being sent?
Yeah because you want both of the 2s to get buffs
Also which one first? Shifu or Jinpu?
usually shifu
kk
!faq samrotation
2.16 < 2.15 > 2.14 | 28 GCD Loop | 457 - 811 SkS | 2 Filler GCDs
2.08 < 2.07 > 2.06 | 29 GCD Loop | 1,370 - 1,725 SkS | 3 Filler GCDs
2.01 < 2.00 > 1.99 | 30 GCD Loop | 2,208 - 2,537 SkS | 4 Filler GCDs
You try not to play SAM out of those SkS right?
Currents
So meld a bit to hit a SkS
you meld to hit one of those tiers
Are they in set areas? Or are there mutple locations for them
they are set
Dammit
you have a base.
Guide?
Interactive maps for Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers, Stormblood and Heavensward. Hunt monsters / Vistas / Mining / Botany / Fishing / Aether currents / Treasure maps
"slow sam" as its called. hts harder and rotations are smoother but slower
click aether currents
I'll tell you right now, Noct, that you won't be unlocking flight in the Sea of Clouds for quite some time.
the last aether current is usually msq locked
Also I haaate these kind of things
Where you gotta find set things
In a giant ass map
And it's like

it takes like 20 mins
^
They're usually close to where the story takes you
Yea
But I just hate them
If you actively use the compass given you'll run past them
To be fair, the process was much worse when HW first came out. It's been made much easier since then.
Why
Because the currents used to be actually hidden in strange places.
But now they're all not too far off from the story path.
Y'all didn't know true pain
So you sometimes had to do 3-5 quests to get to the one with the current
Come back when you experienced vanilla ffxiv
Those aether currents got moved to the first quest in the chain later on
What's considered being caught up to 5.3 story quests?
when your msq bar says to be continued
when you've done ALL the hildebrand! 
Where the hell is my compas?
key items
key items
put it on your hotbar
Yard
a yard
Basically a yard/meter
Why not just call it a yard
because this is fantasy land
Fantasy
Fuck anime
and they use different words
also yards arn't universal fam
Same reason for onze/ponze/tonze
and....popotoes
(ilm = inch, malm = mile, onze = ounce, etc.)
Is there a way to sort my armory chest based on what items are in a gear set and what arent?
Nope
unfortunate, but thanks
how do I get 3rd tier materia?
Grade 3?
guess so, QUicktongue 3 for example
Or, w.e the fuck you use to summone chocobos
Gyshall greens? general vendors
the brugaire consortium npcs in main cities
Really?
@toxic falcon Character menu -> Mount Guide -> pick mount
theres 2 right at the limsa aetheryte
Ive done to them but I never say any
gyshal greens? Bentbranch meadows vendor has them
@static grotto marketboard is the obvious option but you get materia mainly from reaching complete spiritbond with a piece of gear
@static grotto theyre not talking about a mount
and extracting the materia
yes
@toxic falcon there's a few cabbages next to chocobo breeders, in the cabbage patch
Gysahl Greens are most easily bought from Bango Zango by the Limsa aetheryte or Maisenta near the Gridania aetheryte
^
thats what i said 
(Maisenta being the Black Rabbit stall vendor)
yeah I go to gridania for my choco-cabbage
which gear gives t3 materia? ilvl-??
Personally. Not a clue. someone else may tho
Ilvl 40-60 stuff
thanks 🙂
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Materia see “materia tiers”
sweet, I use gamerescape most of the time, but couldnt find materia tiers there
45+ jesus... most of my is 35-40, with 45+ at like 5% . . .this will take a while 😄
generally it'd be better to buy it from the marketboard my dude
shouldn't be too expensive
trial XD
what do you need the materia for? relic weapon?
lv 50 DoH give ins
Remind me which allagan token is gonna be removed for 5.4?

Phanta
now that my ilevel is 495 i should be set for the next patch yes?
@fresh lodge thanks!
The red ones?
Yes

So if you want to level alt jobs for Eden normal how would you meet the level requirements?
After 5.4
@quiet cipher you were fine like 15 item levels ago friend
no now im EXTRA set
Blue ones?
this is ultra preparation
yes cai
I need 6 tier3 materias, random duties it is i guess 😄
Is there a way to make character B use the HUD / Keybinds / other settings that I already have for character A? Or do I have to redo them all? 
Allegory basically takes over Phantas reward spot
@young lintel copy the character files in your game files
Allegory is the blue one
Do you still exchange allegory with crystarium set after 5.4?
How do?
Yes
@young lintel documents > my games > ff14 > CHR file > copy everything
and then put it in the other char?
So some crystarium set would be needed to do Eden normal and nier
yes dragoon
So you can do lvl 80 job set for Eden normal and nier?
Yeah
So I imagine you do level 80 dungeons to get some acc to boost your ilvl
Or tombstones
or many other ways
yeah they progress naturally mostly
Next tier of Eden will need i485 gear
hooray it worked. Thanks Cerb
hey guys so I'm trying out bozja and I have the "Lost no longer" quest that tells me to Obtain a forgotten fragment, and I did get one (I have a forgotten fragment of preparation in my inventory) but the quest still says 0/1..
You need a fragment of skill
You need a fragment of skill
Specifically
oh thanks so much guys
The mobs right outside base drop them
They don't tell you specifically for some reason.
The High Allagan gear from killing Nael deus Darnit is the stuff the clones in the Crystal Tower raids are wearing right?
yep
If only people ran Coil more often on PF or DF
If only people ran Coil more often for those cases when you can't just buy it or the thing needed to craft it which also drops from Coil
they usually do it solo
sometimes there's people doing it, it's how I completed Coil more often. Just a problem of farming the loot esp. when I'm not lvl 80
just craft it 4Head
But yeah it's easy to get people for coils if you do that whole "unsync first time bonus stuff" using PF
Much harder when you have no first time bonus
just buy it
¯_(ツ)_/¯
but he cant trade
I don't think you can trade on the Trial
Yes
Not sure if this is the right channel or not, but is there any speculation on what IL gear the 5.4 dungeon will drop?
Hey, So I just started a couple days ago during the sale. I was just wondering if the Hud should be modified in a certain way?
Then have someone make the PF, you join it, then they leave
only to a way thats comfortable to you
Or just buy the game
So me, a lvl 60 BLM, is supposed to solo Nael deus Darnus
I see on youtube and twitch everyone has certain layouts so i was just wondering if theres a optimized layout for each class or something
@tender thunder no, its preference
Gotcha gotcha
Meara is saying that so then you can get a nice PF where you can wait for people to join in and help
^
Does that work?
Well
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I assume so
Try it
probably
Is Bozjan southern front or fates faster to collect the memories?
is the donation limit for doman restoration always capped at 20,000 gil?
Southern Front is faster if you have a dedicated team doing FATEs in all three areas simultaneously
The donation limit goes up as you progress
Is it hard to find dedicated groups for southern front?
Not during peak hours
Is party finder the best way to find one?
Yeah
skyward score will still be around for the duration of 5.4 right?
You'll always be able to get the achievements as far as we know Yes
Only the rankings will end
ok awesome

I can now assign a job to a retainer. does it matter at all which job I assign? aside from limiting which equipment I can give
no if you're going for combat materials, yes if you want gatherer stuff
Yes, each job is dependent on what the class was
it started as lancer and I'm playing dragoon, not sure if I need to assign dragoon for level purposes
unless you plan on using job gear, no
do you get the most light from alexander soul of the creator?
The usual way to farm Anima light is still A9S (Eyes of the Creator (Savage))
because all the mechanics can be ignored and it goes by fast
also for squadrons, is it all that important which members I have? sounds like I can change their roles, looks like they all have the same total stats at least at a given level
So you just get a party and faceroll.
Typically archer is the best squadron dps imo
different classes have different stat distributions, and some synergy effects require different classes.
was it wrong of me to put soul of the creator as a glam/mount/light farm in pf? people left because it wasnt a "light farm"
I'm at 8 now, have a 9th recruit. Not sure how to choose right now if that's a recruit to dismiss, or someone else.
yeah people don't really do it for light.
oh okay, thank you!
I mean eventually you can change all their classes around so just pick whoever your faves are
Get all Lalafells or something
I don't know if I can trust lalafells
Lmao
wait. I don't think I've seen a lalafell dark knight. I know that's off topic but something I suddenly need to see
theres plenty of them
ah, you can't have a dark knight in your squadron
they can only take base classes, not jobs
is there a way to see how many times you have done a DF with someone? swear I keep seeing the same person
there is not.
There isn't no
sad. thanks
Hey there! I have a small question, does anybody knows how to redeem the Veteran Rewards? 😦 Ive received the mail at the Moogle Station but the "take all" option is not selectable 😦
is there any other way to redeem them? 😅
is your inventory full?
nop 😦
the advent and tantalus attires
is your armoury chest full?
Take a screenshot
they would just default to the main inventory if armoury chest was full
I think i have enough space in both of them 😦
Take screenshot of it
oh

so then the items are in your armoury chest
You already received them
So you have them
If you didn't then they would show up in there
are you on steam or stand alone?
standalone
and you're launching the game from stand alone client yes?
I dont even have it on steam
yes
I'm just gonna restart it again
wack
it should be on auto payment too
hm, not sure if it would make a difference but are you using the trial launcher?
nope
I cant find them :(... but I will take a better look at it again. I probably sold them :(
Thanks for your help :(
try your glam dresser and stuff?
weird, if restarting doesn't fix it my other suggestion would be to redownload the client
you can do /isearch Tantalus to search for the items
and then right click on the item in the chat and select search for item to see where it is
Yes....leves, grand company turn ins and later ishgard restoration
quests, leves, firmament and gc turn ins
Beast tribes like ixal/moogle/namazu/dwarves
I just want to level it up to 15 and get the emperor set so that I can be done with this shit
Fill out your crafting log and do your grand company turn in...company turn ins give you tons of xp
Is that the only crafter you have?
Especially if you get it HQ and further still if its starred
They'll take anything I make?
Did Cid's voice actor change in HW?
ah
the ishgard characters didnt change VAs
lucia's VA actually did change
oh huh
I remember daily and weekly stuff always reset at 11 AM EST. Did that change?
Anyone know what's the Eden Hope min ilvl is going to be?
It’s still 11 est I’m pretty sure
I se thanks
@rugged flicker That was during DST. Daily reset is 10 EST now.
Is ilvl 490 enough? Eden Hope min is 485
for normal mode, yes
For normal, yeah, that's enough.
do you think spending 40k on hand-in gc for lv 60-70 dol is normal?
for starred HQ items
or would you just mine yourself?
i mine every guild quest items myself
I’d just buy the materials, so I can HQ the turn in myself
too expensive on MB
Did you use the market command to check on other worlds of your DC ?
yeh, wanna see the latest pricing
i regularly spend 40-50k for GC hand-ins for crafter jobs,
never for gathering jobs tho
it's so much easier leveling up gatherers
u dont need to do buy stuff on MB to level up gatherers
ah ty ty
my crafters that i recently leveling still low level
so i bought the items from npc lol
maybe later i'll think about it
I recommend using the Ishgard Restoration to level crafters. Way more convenient with ingredients, and earns you sky scrips on the side.
yeah later, right now need to spend my time on bozjan first for my lv 70-80 dow/dom
So if I'm level 72 and msq says 74, is that the suggested level or is that the hard minimum? Can I still do it if I'm 72?

depends
Is that quest level or the level that comes up when you're about to do a solo instance in a quest?
Because it sounds like the latter
wait to finish good intentions i must complete recuring problems first?
Then no that's a hard minimum
FUCK
in part yes
A recurring problem is the first quest and then following that chain unlocks the hard mode fights for Ifrit Titan and Garuda
and you gotta do all three of those
shiiiiiiiiiiiii
the crystal tower is 3 raids
Crystal Tower is mandatory for MSQ later as well
mostly faceroll
is all I was going to say
so 6 raids reeeeeeeeeee
but I think that stops your progress a little later
no
3 raid fights
3 trial fights
biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig difference
all 6 are casual
damn it
and tbh you might have an easier time queuing for the Crystal Tower stuff because lots of DPS per tank / healer ratio
where is the crystal tower raid quest
Starts in Mor Dhona
First quest in the raid questline is called "Legacy of Allag"
given out by the "Outlandish Man"
By the aetheryte
Could queue for the first hard mode trial
while you start on the crystal tower raid
two birds one stone
Actually saying that
it's like
6:30 AM or so
Go to fucking sleep
or something
i just woke up
You're not going to get queued in at this time anyway
D:
yeah don't attempt to get into a specific alliance raid on the polar opposite of your servers peak time
wow my luck
although apparently this boy has a rabbit's foot on hand.
To be fair this isn't alliance raid queuing
but 8-man trial
but yes still very much a rabbit foot unless he has literally been sat here waiting for over an hour
gotta try 😂 just make sure to tick all languages
sometimes i queue alliance raid roulette off-peak time and still got in
Thats less of a factor on NA servers tho.
as the majority of the populace speaks only 1 of the 4 available selections
This is EU
oh. mah bad!
Dummy!
nice 1 down 5 to go
fat finger
but yeah just going to mention that like
trials are just boss battles
Crystal Tower is the 24-man raid
so it's like
a bigger dungeon
with 24 people
It's a little more bossy than normal dungeons but the length is still the same tbh
generally WAY more flashy
It's uh
15 dps
actually not as bad as you think
thank god
1 tank, 2 healers, 5 DPS per party and an alliance raid is made of 3 parties
so 15 DPS out of 24 people
It's a better ratio than normal content
crystal tower is pre requisite for?
Shadowbringers
Well
3.0
You cant get to 3.0 without it
but it's important because of Shadowbringers
and made mandatory because of it
im free trial and i want to go to heavensward so is it important?
ok
You literally get stopped
just like how you are stopped right now
(You should do raids anyway, it's good shit and can be referenced in the main story)
And alliance raid roulette
and other unlockables
like the Shadowbringers relic needs you to do the Stormblood 24-man raid
I guess Kawa? Never thought about it
do you need a subscription to play ff?
Free trial goes up to 2nd expansion with some limitations
So if you want the full experience, yes
I mean, technically the first expansion
A Realm Reborn (base game) and Heavensward (first expansion)
will crystal tower give better gear than ironworks
No
Nope
Gear brought with poetics like ironworks is the best you can get for that level cap
ok
actually
no
whats the hard option
Cause Bahamut gear has 5 more ilv
Only in weapon
Coils of bahamut
How close is the Æry to the end of Heavensward?
like halfway
Thx
Thematically, it's the end of 3.0s second act. But considering the post-60 quests, yeah, just past half.
Einsteinien: "This will be the end of the Dragonsong War"
It was not in fact the end
:V
Yeah if we count post 60 quest you're far
...correction. How close is it to the end of the Free Trial content
should i finish dragonsong before purchasing or just buy it rn?
(that is, the end of HW expansion and beginning of SB expansion)
Free Trial has access to all content in HW so you still have the post-60 stuff ahead of you.
same with shb
(some)
No marketboard usage, no out of dungeon group forming (without assistance)
limited communication.
to prevent spammers and bots you see.
Social feature limitations but all content is technically accessible.
ok mybe if i purchase now i could get a group faster than queing hmmm
buying the game doesnt improve your queue times
ok welp
buying does let you make a Party in PF which everyone says is the only way to do things like EX/Savage/Coils of Bahamut
if you really wanted to do EXs at low level and get carried sure
ok
"low level" the level they're unlocked is when you're supposed to do them
not go back at lvl 80 and one-shot the boss
yeah when they were current sure
but you don't even get the true experiance now anyway. classes have changed so much
they're current for people at that level
No. they're not.
yes
hardly anybody does them on level
lvl 50 people can't go and do whatever lvl 80 people do because they haven't unlocked it
ergo: current
Accessible
thats why people level up and solo them later
Right. what Vinyl said. accessible, not current.
then what's the point of doing them if you just one-shot the boss and buy half the gear on the MB anyways?
Mount farms
there is no level that youre "supposed" to do old content
the devs left it like this
Pretty much the only draw of old content
they know what theyre doing
Mount farms, any glamour, whatever achievements
I mean outside of people going through the levels wanting to this shiny new activity they unlocked
There's literally no reason to do them on level other than challenge
that's the whole point of making them difficult
the nature of this game is that old content is going to be outdated eventually
they're not difficult however
due to class changes
your dps output is significantly higher
more difficult than the standard open world or dungeons
that is a given.
There's small communities that does old content symc
The large majority literally dont care
Cause its irrelevant
just unlock mentor roulette, you'll get some sometimes 😂
extreme old content i mean
For people sitting at lvl 80 waiting for the next patch its irrelevant
odin, titan, shiva you name it
Its something to do while waiting for patch, doing it at minimum ilvl
people in your situation are a minority and the devs arent going to change the entire system for them
I'm not asking for the devs to change it, I just want to be able to do these things without having to go all the way to lvl 80 and one-shot Bahamut "like we're suppose to"
i didnt say you were supposed to
i said there is no level youre "supposed to" do content
If you wanna dig around for the synced communities then they're out there
I think there's some in #resources
Everyone always says to just go back and do it at lvl 80 unsynced rather than do it synced
Because it’s faster
why would you pause your msq, which unlocks more things
People rather take the path of least resistance
just to attempt to get a group to go through the content
you could be at it (based on pug mentality) for MONTHS.
There's nothing incentive of doing it sync
also EXs take a few hours to learn at least
because no-one queues up for it.
Because "Fighting a cool raid and killing Bahamut and getting cool gear" is more interesting than "50 cutscenes to get to the next dungeon"
the whole point of coils is the story
the "cool gear" is available outside of the coils
Well yes but regardless
Bahamut. is fought multiple times.
wot cutscenes is everything bruh 😂 just from my subjective opinion
do you know how long it takes to complete a savage raid, let alone coils
several weeks to learn one
Hello i need help on primal crafting
Shout in limsa for crafters
no answers
And? People spend a long time working to get the perfect glamour yet wanting to fight Bahamut on sync is apparently an issue
Like insaid
if you want to do that then its fine
If you wanna dig around for the synced communities then they're out there
im saying people can buy the glamour for cheap instead of wasting weeks of their lives getting it
99% of the community rather do it unsynced because there's nothing incentivising them to do it synced
yeah what you're suggesting could add literally a year to cap a character
I tried 2nd coils synced recently and hated it so much
I assume after trying to do it synced and being told "just wait to do it unsynced, no one does it synced"
Because like i said, the majority dont do it synced
because no one does it synced
Because Pugs are trash at learning and performing mechanics even on the best days and not many people pay attention
i'm not going to recommend a new player to jump straight into a savage raid in which they will wait hours for a group because nobody does it
95% of synced ques for extremes or savage/coils usually ends up in someone leaving immediately, one wipe then everyone bails or you wipe for the next hour with no progress
if you know what youre doing and have experience with endgame content and find a group that does coils synced then by all means do it
because coils is brutal
The content isn't going anywhere and you can sync it later...and as i stated there is a few small communities for synced content
The option is there, just majority dont care for it
this job quest https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Beggar's_Mythril_Ore
lv 63 mining
checked the location, nowhere to be found
doesn't seem to be a timed node either
and not collectable it seems
after crystal tower raid i should be clear for heavensward right or is there more sidequest to do?
yeh
if you do all other blue quests that also would be great, you will get a lot of poetics to get ironworks gear (if you haven't)

oh sorry the picture is showing the wrong location
after matching the coordinate, it works
-_-
bloody gamerescape
i already got the full set
Can Suzaku EX be done with 1 tank/1 healer, or is that not a good idea?
What, JUST one tank one healer? No DPS? No that's not even remotely possible
It's been a rather long while since I've even done it
Oh gods no, the rest would be DPS
oh then yeah
but your tank is gonna eat shit on 2nd tankbuster
but...just...rez him
you'll be fine
mmm
Ummmmm, I'd probably bring two healers because if you fuck up first phase that can really really suck
But yeah 1 tank sounds fine
Yeah probably best to just have standard full then
true
you can, you'll skip the tankbusters if your DPS are good enough
oh true.
like, no tankbusters at all
Easy-squeezy~
Disgusting
Alrighty, thanks!
what? you don't want hot bird lady to step on you?
...I should watch a video so I at least remember some of what to do. :D
Well we'll be having bird lady step on us next patch for blue skills
hell yeah
just dont step on the dance pads that the bird touches
Suzaku EX solo clear with dance pad remote leggooo
this is cursed
People cleared savage with a guitar controller so
Unless the DK bongos come out, content hasn’t peaked
hmmm how long do you have to wait after a home world transfer to change your char name?
What stats should MNK focus on?
!faq Balance
That is for specific class knowledge.
BUT. if you're not max level. just. take whatever
Prior to level 80, you only need to equip whatever the highest item level is (because it will give you the most Strength)
everything is secondary to Strength
this isnt ingame question but does anyone knw why the game is downloading at 7.5mb/s instead of my actual speed 27.5mb/s
your actual speed is just a measure of how fast you can receive data, not necessarily an indicator of how fast a site can send it to you
MB/s is different from Mb/s
i knw it just for some reason instead of ffxiv is getting max of 60mbps instead of 200
Is the Doman Adventurer's Guild questline just following up on those kids and being wholesome?

I believe there's abit with them again in stormblood, in some more side content
is there a list somewhere that tells you which fish do and don't require snagging?
What happened to my fc discord it was replaced by this
We can’t answer that for you
Ok
But it sounds like your discord either kicked you or got disbanded/deleted
Isn't there a scrip vendor in Ishgard?
Not the skybuilder's one in Firmament, just normal scrips
There's one in the firmament, it might need unlocking the delivery client there
There's another one in the firmament
there's a basic scrips vendor in Firmament?
I just could have sworn every city had them now
Ishgard is weird
theres on in the firament for basic scrips yes
i think it might require doing part of the questline for it however
I did...
oh okay, found them, just no npc nearby to GET scrips.... lame
up to a specific level
the items i'm after are above the level the ishgard rowena rep sells
think you gotta do more of the msq then
no, i found them
its the npc you get ehll tou's custom delivery mats from, just didn't remember them sellng scrip stuff XD
was looking for an npc named "scrip collector" or whatever

what do you mean

How many times do i have to do a 4-lord sb extreme trial to get enough totems for the mount?
Do I even want to care about using egi assult 2 with Ifirt
does beast tribe totems have any limit?
does the "FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE STARTER EDITION" allow me to be in samurai class
no
Yeah but you’ll probably never reach it
lol although in description said all class up to 60
samurai is a stormblood class
That's all classes that were available up until lv60
Samurai wasn't introduced til the lv70 content
You can’t play samurai, red mage, dancer or gunbreaker with Starter Edition.
can gordias, midas and alex parts used for anything else outside of getting gear for glamour?
I was just curious because ifrit is only used on single target is what im told
Thanks guys so much
Its still 250 potency
Why wouldn't you use ifrits egi assault 2 all the same?
To everything it hits, and generates ruin stack
It's an insta cast so you can use it to weave
you use up your egi assaults first and then your ruins
Ifirit is single target cause its autos are single and higher potencies in general vs single
it's like the free trial but with extra features, (pf, no gil cap, mb access, fc and other more).
Is there any active promote code before im buying the game
is getting skysung gathering tools worth it? I just want a close to 85-90% gathering rate on the new nodes when they come out.
Hard to say, but they’re currently equal to a slightly melded aesthete tool
@gritty oracle imo, if you have the time to burn go for it. i went with skysung crafting tools cause melding 8 crafting tools is expensive and because i could just mindlessly click the same 1 or 2 buttons for 30 minutes and be done with a tool
I already have all skysung crafting tools, was wondering about the gathering ones.
i never felt like i needed the skysung gathering tools though, even with a semi melded aesthete gathering tools
you'll probably be fine for 5.4
and nothing gathering wise should come after 5.4
I'm currently rocking a prototype skysteel hatchet and the landking pickaxe
just do it then, you already have a tool bought
is there a setting where it auto cycles target after the current target dies?
honestly, that doesn't seem like a big issue because bots are probably advanced enough to just auto target themselves
Yeah but why make stuff easier for them 
use weskalber on youtube
aye
im doing the skysteel upgrade for gathering, it really is time consuming.
I only really intend to use it for dungeons but I still want to know what the heck I'm doing do it proper
use your egi assaults as gcd first and then your ruins

Hello. I'm a trial version player who just now bought the Complete edition. I'm having trouble upgrading my trial version account even though I possess a registration code. Is this the right place to ask for guidance?
Did you enter the code in mogstation?
Got error i2501
Trial version started on PC
Purchase was done for PC download
no steam
You could try another browser
2501 is the generic "something went wrong" error
Different browser, mobile data, clearing cache etx
Turn vpn off
^ that too
Don't use a vpn. Will try now on a different browser.
beh
same error 😦
I know the purchase went through as I checked my bank account. So at least, I know it isn't a faulty purchase problem.
try using your mobile data
I don't currently have access to that.
One more thing I'd like to mension. I'm currently overseas, in a different country from the one I started my trial version in and having my billing address. Dunno if that matters at all. Would that trip some fraud alarms?
not really
It probably would imo
really?
the fraud system seems weird from reddit posts with the same error
From my experience, I just entered US in my address because my country isn't available when i registered. I didn't get any of those errors.
I’d think it’s more so the current ip is different from the ip it started in
which i’d think hits the same fraud logic as a vpn
I got this when I tried the same process through my cellphone.
Hmm prolly wait til that goes away then
This is a big problem. It seems from what I found searching that this problem is not uncommon. Problem is I feel the error message is not specific by any means.
Could also try reaching squenix official support
I will wait out the server hours and see what happens. Was excited to start playing SAM today but looks like it will not happen 😦
How much for 6 months subscription
can i use software token instead of the physical one to get the func of making an aetheryte free destination?
any tips dealing with Lazy Laurance, fate in east shroud? He just seems to wreck me. chocobo finally got cure which helps a little but not nearly enough still.
maybe I should try as a tank
idk if this is the right place to ask it but has anyone bought Edda's scythe in mogstation? and if so, how does it look attacking/skill wise? like does it "fit" smoothly
or is it wonky animation wise
Haven't found any dmg mechanics articles up to date. Do i just mess with search or there are none?
That's a big fate that is meant to be done with many people
Would it be alright to ask where you're from? I'm mostly asking 'cause I'm from South East Asia and we actually have an ISP here that doesn't seem to play nice with mogstation that when I tried to upgrade my game to full I had to use mobile data to do it.
Granted I didn't get the same error you did, but it was still an issue in my browser that was preventing me from purchasing the game fully until I swapped to use mobile data.
@fast talon I'm currently in the Middle East.
I see, a bit farther than me and I did just notice you did already try with mobile data, sorry. Try contacting support, in my experience they did actually reply pretty quickly, though by the time they did I had already fixed the issue on my own end.
I'm now taking screenshots of error and attempt to upgrade my trial version and sending them with a help request.
Hope it doesn't take too long. I'm on vacation now and want to blast through as much of the MSQ through Stormblood and shadowbringers as possible.
Well I wish you the best of luck, I know how frustrating buying the game and hitting an error can be, spent like an afternoon trying to fix that issue on my end when it happened to me and was just frustrated the whole time thinking I had wasted money.
Will keep troubleshooting. Thanks for the advice everyone! 😄
Just to clarify the issue is you have the code but mogstation isn't accepting it? It could be because of the IP thing, I don't know if using a VPN is risky or not (to make it seem like you're at your home IP) but you could also entrust your credentials to someone you trust back in your country to activate it for you.
I've thought of that. However, I played on the trial version for a week now in my new location. If I all of a sudden start using a vpn it is likely to flag the account even harder.

is chocobo a chicken or a duck?

People actually hear chocobos in ffxiv
!faq mounts
'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.
Hi, autoclicker bots/automation software is forbidden, yes?
what's the fastest way to level from 70 to 80? bozja and df?
Alright, if I have reported a user for such, how long does it usually take for a GM to review said report?
varies, you wont normally know the results though
Darn...
Was it a housing bot pr something?
Yeah
What is the recommended class for retainers for a new player ?
botanist/miner /combat class, however they can only level as high as you have that class
Whatever your main classes are because that^
Also easier to just slap your old gear onto the retainer
^ that too
is combat class for exp and the others for gil ?
no, they dont give you exp, they gather stuff, but combat classes and the boatnist/miner classes gather different things
ah , guess I was misinformed , anyways thanks 🙂
When do I unlock PF?
why is there not much of VA? the VA i have heard so far is pretty good.
are you in arr?
they had a shoestring budget for VA acting in ARR cause they had to launch it fast, cause the original game (1.0) was a dumpster fire
theres more VA in the expansions
Game's not fully voiced
that too
there is more but it's still only major scenes in MSQ
this game has an immense amount of text
voicing everything is not the norm
and given it's on an MMO patch update schedule, it would be totally infeasible to do so
Also ARR voice acting is generally agreed to be very poor quality
in English
the VA studio changes when you reach Heavensward, to a UK studio
the quality afterwards is generally much better.
hmm..... long way to go

its quite entertaining when everybody is suddenly very, very english
yuyuhase's japanese voice is very very manly
can I ask a question about subscription?
trying to renew sub but it won't accept my card because the info of the location my card is and my account's location doesn't match I think
so I'm trying to look for alternative
What story quest is required to start the 80 relic weapon?
What story quest is required to start the 80 relic weapon?
saw this 60 day game time card online thing on the sq store, and considering I bought the game through the store, I wonder if I can resub by buying this
note, I'm nowhere near USA
you need to unlock ivalice raids
I'm halfway over the world
Can you just do ivalice and enter Bojza right away?
I just wanna be sure in case I accidentally buy a physical product I can't receive
it says "online" and receive method is download, but I'm still a bit scared so
no Hellie you gotta do a questline
probably going to send you a code though
I know ivalice is required, I'm asking if someone has to finish shadowbringers to enter Bozja?
yes
also does it send me a code I can redeem for ingame time
on browser after I buy the game card
sends you a code via email i think
yeah you need to finish it
the code region has to match your account region
NA card for na account
e u card for eu account etc
thanks, what about 5.1-2?
There's a quest called "Hail to the Queen"
my account should be NA
I know what the quest is,
then itshould work fine
I just dont know what story quest has to be done before he can start it
well, I had to pick NA because all my friends are there and my actual region isn't on SE radar lol
that quest
5.1
has to do the previous relic quests as well
This person was legit starting a new classes so he didn't waste story exp 
Convinced him to continue story and level through Bozja later lol
so it's safe to buy? https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/282175/final-fantasy-xiv-online-60-day-game-time-code-download this product specifically
You will only be able to use this 60 day code if you have purchased Final Fantasy® XIV and currently have an existing FFXIV account.For assistance, please visit the SQUARE ENIX Support Center at http://support.na.square-enix.com/index.php
my account's region is The Americas, and it's an info I can't change so
should be ok
Yes, that is the correct purchase if you have a "The Americas" account
Alternatively you can sub via Crysta and you can buy that with stuff like Paypal and all as another alternative
can't because crysta purschase is through mogstation and mogstation doesn't like my card
I can buy ffxiv through square enix store
but I couldn't pay through mogstation for some reason
says my card credential doesn't match location credentials
you can try linking your card to your paypal if you have one.
and buy crysta with it
at what level do you start the relic weapon questline ?
what relic weapon
summoner class , this quest i think , i dunno
That one is 50
seems like i did all the Pre-Requisites , yet the quest is not showing up for me
are the battle of carteneau and the calamity different events?
kinda sorta
Can I export the macros from teamcraftxiv?
the calamity happened during the battle itself but its also been like a longass plan by the empire that started long before battle of cartenau and has long lasting effects after it too
export them into what? I know teamcraft generates macros for the rotations you make and then you can just copy-paste that into your game
into copy-pasteable macro
so i can put it in the game
there should be a button that's something along the lines of "copy as ingame commands" or something
found it! thanks
yeah that
so I need a lot of yellow scrips just to get the skysung frypan 🤔
Yes. Iitc it costs like 4-5k yellow scrips per skysung tool

when playing as tank, is it easier to play with a controller or keyboard?
completely due to preference, there's not especially an advantage to one over the other. Pick whichever one you're most comfortable/used to using
that goes for every job/role as well
Is it faster to farm fates or pull packs in Bozja for memory farmin?
beside crystal tower what other raid do free trial get
Is it possible to see all the videos from the MSQ?
@stable herald Bozja if you have parties split up in 2 different areas
Which 2? is there a strategy?
also wasn’t a thing
