Eh you're at the point where you make more gil by questing than you spend teleporting
It's a non-issue
you can set a separate city from your starting one as a favorite on the aethryte network
for discount teleports
Half price
ya
well i like this place better than the sand dunes thats for sure

I haven't been very active for the past while, last time I logged in was for 2 days on 5.3 launch for the MSQ, before that it was a few days of 5.2 launch for MSQ and eden.
With 5.4 dropping, I want to get back in and experience the story and the normal mode eden/emerald weapon. Problem is, my character is still mostly in 5.1 gear, with the highest ilevel thing being the base resistance weapon (the one before even doing any of actual bozdja). I feel that with my gear I would just be a detriment in content (assuming I even meet the ilevel requirement), not to mention I am rusty as all hell. I don't quite know where to even start catching up to an adequate level for 5.4 normal content, any help would be appreciated, preferably without having to resort to tomestone grinding
if i go into MSQ roulette at level 50 then gain a level inside, will my bonus xp at the end be scaled off of level 51?
@clear drift dungeons, or bunker or buy neo-ish gears are the fastest most effortless ways. Also you can upgrade your resistance weap to i500 with some fate grinding
@mental garnet yeah, it's still gives chunks of exp even as lv 71-80
@clear drift would recommend just do all duty roulette as lv 80 and buy crystarium gear
I think if you do all of them, you will get like 1k++
and as Llauqs said, upgrade the resistance weapon 😂
check out the hunt in your server as well 🤔
im taking a look on ariyala, and theres the 495 bozjan gear? how feasible are they to obtain?
and if they are usable outside
super easy 🤦♂️
gives 495 head, armor, glove, pants and shoes I think?
just level up your alt lv 71-80 there and you'll get plenty of coins to throw around
Is there a way to check how many allagan tokens you have before exchanging?
not sure if there are people leveling there now since new patch just arrived 🤔
thats one of my worries
just do duty roulette like usual i guess
gives you plenty of the new currency
and allegories
bozjan gears are not that fast to get though mind you ...
it’s doable but the mosr grindy one out of all options listed imo
i see
yeh, just do bozjan if you need to level an alt 71-80
well at least if you want to get most of it..
since it gives plenty of exp..
Not in that dialogue window. Just exit out and go to your currency menu
is resistance weapon bis or just for glamour again?
The weapon is still good as catch-up
Did I miss my chance to spend Phantasmagoria tokens? >>;
i485 for basically no effort
@rapid compass hmm don't think so 🤔 if you got leftover, you just trade them to allegory in mor dhona
Edens promise normal mode has a weekly cap or you can get one item every time you win a fight??
Go to Auriana in Mor Dhona to exchange them for allegory
Thank you and @obsidian patio - I'm heading there now. 😄
and the items that you used to trade with phantasm now available with allegory
You get one token per floor per week, plus the extra weapon token from E12
What's the best wya to farm the new aether reduction nodes?

thx
by token you mean XXXX of lost antiquity?
Yes
thanks!
you probably picked some beast tribe quests and haven't finished them yet
or you took 12 today already
Don't stock up your beast tribe quests
okay.
Where do you exchange phantasmagoria tombs
So let me rephrase
mor dhona
@spare plinth Mor dhona
You have a max of 12 Beast tribe quests a day
I haven't had my daily beast tribe quests replenish in 4 days
incase I wasn't clear
Yeah, finish any leftover beast tribe quest you have picked up previously
Its happens to me before when I had beast tribe quests sitting in my journal unfinished.
That would be because you still have some in your quest log
We knew exactly what is going on
Take a screenshot of your journal
would that hold all 11 allowances up?
Yes
That's not how it works
And the one open one is the problem
you cannot have ANY previous day's daily tribes in your journal
You'll get the allowance for today when you finish the quest
it should at least let me get 11 more
It is not "you have 12 slots of beast tribe quest" available
Just finish the quest
but instead making me wonder why I haven't been able to do them for 4 days
because I missed one?
It is "you have 12 fresh quota a day"
3 people for ravana ex is enough right?
Lvl 80? should be
ty
Just to make sure I'm not carrying a lesson from another game; "UNIQUE" items cannot have multiple instances on one character, right? Such as Crystarium Rings of Casting?
Yup
Been away for a long time. Any new hairstyles for viera?
Take note that Augmented Crystarium and Crystarium are not the same thing
nope @solid lion
So you can have 1 Augmented ring and 1 base ring
what's the command for the raid loot table
!faq edenloot
assuming you mean normal mode ofc
yeah, thanks
no
you haven't done Bismark
it doesnt say bismarck is a prereq there
it does 🤔
it said Bismark on the patch notes
i guess they forgot it in the game text
that's weird
it happens, probably will be fixed eventually
Oh god why it feels like you would have a Monster can acc. For that set.
monster can acc?
is fantasia only way to change race
yeh
Is there a resource out there that tells you all the new craftable items?
specifically cosmetic items
i'm extremely confused, why is it that the 500 gear surpasses in stats the 510 gear?
unless im missig something obvious it shouldnt be like this?
How do you get the books for trading crypt materials in eulmore?
Because the one on the right is Normal Quality
You have to do savage
So doing savage guarentees you get a book?
Oh my god, thank you so much, I was going mad not understanding this. Thanks tons,
basically the books are your fallback item if you get unlucky with rolls
same for totems in extreme trials
Thanks for the info

anyone know where the royal lion housing item comes from. Have a feeling it's maps but not sure
do i need to pentameld aesthetian gear to make HQ BIS food
trade to materia vendor for battle materia
Where are they at?
Know one’s in Idyllshire
It’s a very slight loss compared to crafted
Just less crafted pieces you have to make
because hq mats are cancer
auriana in mor dhona
Thanks!
2k phantasmagoria will be exchange for 500 allegory
can anyone help me with some questions i have about duty finder and dungeons?
Can I be in a different GC as the majority of my FC and still be in my FC?
yes, doesn't have an effect on anything
just dictates where your fc leader has to buy actions and such from
just ask here and we'll try to answer
bet, should i bother looking into guides for dungeons or can i just facetank until endgame?
4-man dungeons / 8 man normal raids can be done blind
even up to current content
you might want to look at guides for 8 man savage, 8 man extreme trials and definitely ultimates
24man alliance can be done blind as well but probably not as tanks
and any party specific tanking is usually super obvious
true
What should I do to level my alt from 50-60?
sweet thanks fellas
!faq altlvlguide
51-59 dungeons
^ if tank or healer
if DPS would be faster to do palace of the dead (I'm tired)
this is after roulettes and stuff of course
You don't have to look up guides, but really it doesn't hurt to do so.
I like the surprise factor of doing some dungeons blind like ||Baelsar's Wall and meeting Sloppeh|| ¯_(ツ)_/¯
But yeah generally doesn't hurt if you must
Usually how do groups handle AST needing 30 seconds for a card before each pull?
on VoiceComms if its a seriously serious raid and they settle their differences
if its casual content, who cares just pull when someone gets impatient
the guy with the blue pouch icon on the map, is he there in Ishgard as well?
for exchanging poetics
What about half serious runs? Like just e9s and Weapon Ex trails
yes, but only after you complete the main scenario quest "Heavensward"
i heard he is there in major cities
And will have 60 poetic items
ahh. shit

But yeah, I think my issue is, I don't know how to tell my raid leader that I really want 30 seconds before a pull...
I mean, there are a lot of deaths, and I'm a bad player, and we only see enrage once per 10 pulls...
But I kinda really want that first card...
how much gathering do I need to see the new stuff
just ask. worse thing he can do is say no. communication is important esp if its a premade group i assume
About glamour. Once I have applied a costume to an equipment. Can I used that costume again to apply it to another equipment?
Yes
Nice! Thank you!
Why do you need 30 seconds before a pull?
Like is that 30 seconds before the pull timer starts or a 30 second pull timer?
Are mechanics spoilers an actual thing you can report someone for? That sounds like some made up shit.
!mute 115293084916383745 3600 Stop shitposting in this channel
No
Oh thank god, that would be too ridiculous for me.
The middle of the boss hitbox is considered as rear?
why after 7 Umbral era scenario, all quests in the main scenario bring so little experience? Previously there were about 40,000, and now the maximum is 4000-5000. I completed all main quests in 2.1 and 2.2, and still haven't got a single level
If you look at the marker when you target a mob, you'll see that the section designated as "rear" only has one full ring, with the outer ring being cut off there.
Sorry quick question what are the two best stats I should be aiming for GNB gearwise? Like how there's strength and vitality, what two should aim for on my other two start?
I keep getting error when downloading the game
It says it can't download some files
Because those quests are all level 50 and originally didn't give xp at all
@maiden juniper the 2.X quests are all meant to be run at 50 so they had a minimal xp amount
odd question is there only one new nier quest? or am i missing something
^
5.2 has the same thing
ok, thanks
ah ok
cuz i thought i saw someone in a mount that looked like a nier thing and thought there was more but guess not lol
Who is the person that exchanges tomes of Phantasgoria?
Phantasmgoria should be the npc at eulmore
@heady vortex That's from the Bosjan Fronty
by the way, how often do the patches happen? How long to wait for 5.5 and a new dlc after it?
auriana in mor dhona @gloomy mortar
ah, what mount is it? and how do i get it may i ask?
@maiden juniper Usually every three months, but with Covid that's been off.
Quick question what stats should I prioritise on GNB in terms of gearing?
ok, thank you
@heady vortex It's called Gabirel Alpha and it's a random drop from the lockboxes.
ah ok thanks
u can also get it from marketboard for 800k
how much gathering and perception do I need for the new mining stuff like dolomite
Where do I get the new raid? Finished MSQ
Yalfort at mord souq
She isn't there. Are there some optionals that act as a prereq for picking this raid up?
Pretty sure the quest starts in the Crystarium
The raid starts where I said
just make sure you're giving him time to load if people are around
If you need literally all of the raid from the beginning though then like Meara said it's in the crystarium
@leaden ginkgo Completion of the level 80 quest chain starting with In the Middle of Nowhere by talking to Anxious Crystarium Guard in The Crystarium (X:9.7 Y:12.3).
assuming they mean eden's promise by "new raid", then yes it starts in amh araeng like tessa said

Thanks guys. Found out I missed an inbetween quest after the last raid.
how do people do these tradecraft quests without the market board? doing level 55 culinary quest, seems the worst one I've run into so far. need sweetfish, which appear to need 58 goldsmithing just to make the jig to catch them
effort and time
I did mine... By making gils with Miner and botanist, and use gils to buy Fisher stuff
i try to not use MB i wanna do it the painful slow legit way
Where should I spend allegory tomes?
my solution for that bit for now is just buy the grilled sweetfish for 4k, I like gathering and making the stuff but my goldsmithing isn't high enough yet at 54.
that's odd, i resubbed for entry, but it didn't ask me what character i want to pick?
It is for the account
first character on the character list is the one you are able to play on entry, if you have multiple characters on a server
Welcome back!!
WAIT SHIT DID ZURVAN GET GLOWY WEAPONS?
yes
what happened here?
those spells were removed
what's the replacement
they updated how gathering collectables work
scour, brazen prospector/woodsman, meticulous prospector/woodsman and scrutiny
which main story quest does one unlock flying
for a realm reborn zones, its "The Ultimate Weapon"
oo
any ilvl gear increase for dol/h gear?
for expansion zones, you need to find all of the aether currents in that zone. There's two sets of aether currents, open world (they're green orbs) and quest currents (
and usually the last one is from msq)
they released hand/landsaint with 5.4 but its not better than melded aesthete
apparently there's this person who will exchange phantasmagoria for other allagan since phantasmagoria are removed
am i right?
yes, auriana in mor dhona
how much time does it take for an item from mogstation to arrive?
nope, you need to have an active account to login and need to be able to log in to download the update
usually a couple of minutes, potentially longer if its account bound
you can click on "request delivery" button at the mail moogle, but ultimately just have to be a bit patient
God e12n is so fucking annoying to heal when everyone is fucking min ilvl
#general-discussion or #rants, wol
Hey so I saw that monks got a bunch of changes, how are they now?
is anyone getting weird weapon drop bugs with the new trial?
i cleared and 7 people passed/left and one person rolled on the weapon
like chatlogs said so and everyone also said they did but the weapon just
dropped and didn't go to anyone
Can I still do anything with approved grade 2 skybuilders mats?
I saw a /micon with a checkmark on a silver background, does anyone know its name?
How do you move ffxiv folder to another drive just copy it there safe?
I don't suppose anyone has figured out the ideal collectability to aim for in aethersand reduction yet?
@jovial tide sound like a default macro icon that doesn't need the command text. You can get it by clicking on the icon image next to the macro name typing box

if its NQ, yes
you should -never- be using NQ crafted gear at lvl cap
though generally, also don't want to be using NQ gear after ARR either
If I go buy ffxiv complete, can I hold onto it until I want to dive into the paid content and not waste sub
Yes
Take note that when you are on free trial, you have social and inventory limitations
the rest of gameplay experience is the same
where do you exchange emerald weapon totem?
ty
How many aether currents must I attune to be able to fly?
Has anyone on older rigs been experiencing any crashing or GPU failure in the new Eden raids?
you need to attune to all aether currents for that zone, which is usually a total of 15. 10 open world, 5 quest
Are these quests msq?
one of them usually is, the others will be 
F
Elo Is the new Custom Delivery available in 5.4 or do you need to advance some of the 5.4 story to get to it?
uhm
My mogstation stuff hasn't arrived after 2 hours and I'm gettin kinda worried, I did the purchase delivery request thing and it still hasnt arrived :<
Anyone got an FFXIV ACT Discord Invite?
5.4 question: how does one get the new crypt twine (eulmore gear augment upgrade item)?
Probably from e11s

oh you're right, from the savages
That's typically the case until the next 24 man Nier raid
What should you burn Nuts on? Have it all
If you don’t need any gear, then materia
did they increase level cap for blue mage?
Not yet
Blue mage stuff is 5.45
I see.. thanks
i have reached lvl 60, can i purchase shire gear from mor dhona?
no, shire is only from idyllshire and ishgard, and i believe you need to finish HW before the ishgard vendor appears
you need to finish HW
ahhhh man. i have like some 40 quests before i reach idyllshire.
anyone know why my mogstation items not being send? it literally been an hr and im 100% sure it was on my char i wanted
i am still in this quest where i have to beat ravana
How many levels over your class your leveling can you do a side quest
Ex. Can I turn in a level 16 side quest at level 13
(And get full EXP)
you're*
you can't turn in a quest with a class that's lower level than intended
would I be at a big disadvantage if i level every all crafters and gatheres besides fishing?
I know that @analog gate , but I'm asking about how high you can push it-- I know I can turn in a level 13 quest at level 11 because I just did
Normally games have an EXP falloff where if you turn in a quest that's to high, you only get like 50% EXP from it

can you HQ 5.4 pre-crafts with just the new i500 scrip gear?
Can anyone tell me which folder holds the UI settings and character creation saved data? I'm planning to upgrade to an SSD and I don't wanna lose my swttings
I believe it is 15 days
guys i cant
Scroll down to view the requirement
What are the best chances for my friend to get into leviathan?
since I'm lvling multiples cafters at a time is it wise to pick the gear pieces from each quest reward? thus I skip having to buy or craft those pieces when lvlin up?
mostly post 50 since that seems the most streamlined when it comes to gearing
NQ
NQ is not that good, once you hit lvl 50+ you should consider to craft HQ main tool, chest, and pants yourself at the very least
already lvled them up through ishgard. it's just the gearing post 50 that I don't wanna do
rolling to 70 that is
NQ gears have neutered stats compared to their HQ counter part
ye I know but I'm not at the high levels yet I'm just going from 50 to 80
@kind eagle emerald weapon ilvl is lower, but you can get all the weapons you want right now
doing my class quests and what not
Then it is fine to just stick with NQ gears
is emerald better than revelation augmented?
No
e12s>rev aug>rev>emerald>crafted
Thanks enne
so emerald is just for the time-being while you farm for revelation
Emerald is good for now because you can get as many as of them as you can grind
oh
No weekly limit on emerald
yes
porta praetoria probs
leviathan is open to new character if he wants to try right now
🙂
what mats do i need to buy w allegories to craft a striking 510 set?
go here
make a list, add all the exarchic striking
it'll tell you the exact amount
thank you
Can you get more than 1 antique part per turn in the new nm raids?
no, limited to 1 per week
ah ty

Is there a way to disable the effects from using an instrument/perfomance? The little rainbowy notes etc so its just the animation.
its a quest at wineport
oh ty
Warring triad ex drops some stuff for gears or what else?
99 totems for a bird mount.
how much tokens wil i get by spamming castrum and the other lvl 50msq?
10 totems for a weapon (non-glowy so not that popular)
normal raid drop
Is the bird the same as the one that drops from ex?
Are you talking about Poetics?
yes
You get 200 from Praetorium and Castrum
Main Scenario Roulette will bump that up to 500/600 depending on if there's a person in your party doing it for the first time
For the same reason, doing them outside of roulettes would be 200/300
this is even if i have already done the quests right?
Yep
righto. ty.
You can see the reward in the Duty Finder
But if you're just spamming them, do Castrum
Castrum takes about 20 minutes while Praetorium is 45-50 minutes
please help its taking an inventory slot but i dont know what to do with it
it's a bug in the latest patch. http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/news/detail/cb1505f37a65599009d754621167c5ef9f549964 recommend you discard it
tysm
when will be the next event ffxiv
Christmas event begins Dec 14th
so uhh its an item you cant drag or move, but when i hit sort its an empty slot at the top thats taken up like its a piece of amor
*armor
Im confused with relic.
Might just have to wait for the bugfix, or you could send a GM ticket via the system menu > support desk > contact us and maybe a GM could delete it from your inventory for you (unsure whether they would do this)
Is your relic in your inventory?
it says I need 20 of memories of the dying and... i dunno what else im missing
you can't have it equipped
No cause I only HAVE one gun
go get another.
....why cant i just hand in my weapon, thats bs
always been like that
¯_(ツ)_/¯
thats so stupid
because it's taking the item away
i've been thinking i hadn't farmed enough
yeah it's taking the item away and giving you a brand new one
and you can't be not holding a weapon in this game
and they don't have a system to auto-equip you forcibly with the new item
such a dumb game design
i cant even do the quest as another job
it says "requires X job"
yeah it's a nuisance whenever you do relic
Its not dumb code, its because you physically can never not have a weapon
You current class is dictated by your equipped weapon, and you can't be classless
The Rak'tika Greatwood ( 20.3 , 13.2 ) Z: 0.0 ?
is it possible to turn chat like this into a flag in game
Nope
Anyone on ather wanna help me slap bismark ex super quick unsynced..?

Sure, lemme get out of this cutscene

I’ll make a PF listing
kk
can you obtain only one weapon per week in the extreme?
Only savages and normal raids have weekly loot
and it's only current content that has that restriction
can you get books from e9s after you clear it ?
cheers!
what is the min ilvl for the new dungeon?
470
470
ooooooh so it was a right decision that i sold my new crafted gear for gil. Thanks guys
am i missing something here? why is it that a materia that gives 2 more points in craftmanship only can be melded onto gear with a much lower item level?
Can exarchic gear be augmented?
Not until 5.5
@onyx kiln the line of text on the second materia means you cannot meld it past the first overmeld slot
So a piece with 2 open slots can only fit three of the second materia
Basically the grade 7 materia is meant to be put in the slots that grade 6 and 8 can’t go into
Also, grade 7/8 were added with shadowbringers. Grade 6 was added in stormblood
i see
maybe stupid question but it's my first 'big' patch in this game where i'm at level cap - for the eden raids, can i get only one drop per week? or is it one drop per run? i'm a little confused about it all
1 drop per raid, per week
untill the next raid comes out
with the only exception being the minon you get at the end of each raid i belive
that you can roll on and a item
ooo, ok ! so if i want, say, the chest piece and i get lucky enough to land the chest drop each time, it's 4 weeks till i can have it?
that or if you roll on chest on each raid
not every fight has a chest tho iirc, might be wrong tho
yeah u might be right
ohh so each separate 'floor' has a drop limit, not the whole set?
yes
i get it now 😄 thank you
so now puppets bunker should have that restriction gone i belive
yep
you can stock up the coins because probably in 5.5 that can be use for upgrading revelation gear
Is there a how-to for the new gathering collectables method?
what is the price for the new white scrip gear sets?
Mostly opinion and entirely based on if you do savage and what tomestone equipment you plan to buy
I’ve seen several people use this sequence for a whm opener, can anybody explain if there’s any benefit of using assize before glare over swift-glare and then assize? Or is there no difference?
There’s no best routing
Probably to better fit burst windows and Cooldown stacking with other classes in the opener , if I had to assume
@stable herald if you simply want item level then go for the cheap pieces first, like accessories, belt, and head/gloves/boots
again it’s all dependent on what tomestone pieces you see yourself buying first
Thanks!
@obsidian patio wasn't there a guide that basically showed the most efficient gearing?
Again it all depends on how you spend your tomestones
And if you’re going for pure item level or more stats per gear
well, whichever gives best dps i guess
Like is four i510 accessories/belt better or worse for you than one i510 Chest or Leg?

have you completed the associated quest?
probably need to finish 5.3 msq maybe?
you need to finish 5.0 to get leveling dungeons to trusts iirc
what is the new best buff food for mechanic and warrior 😮 ? did see there are new recipes 😛
Assuming they still want Crit/det food then Smoked Chicken
And if your WAR needs SKS food to meet their GCD then Chicken Fettuccine
thank you :3
I gathered mats for the crafted gear yesterday and there is friend of mine on phoenix who would be willing to craft it for me
We could just cross world visit each other, exchange the gear and mats right?
Yep
neat
Hey, I did the quest that should have unlocked the "The hero's journey quest", I even got a message saying I did. But I did not get the achievement you get for safekeeping and the quest the hero's journey does not appear. Do other people have this problem?

emerald weapon ex
for taking the fall quest do you really need to unlock flying in sea of clouds first or is there another way?
oh so it's like damaging the "real" boss?
how?
Is emerald ex only weapons?
add " || " sign at the beginning and the end of your post
yes
where do you unlock the quest
the lochs
the lochs?
it made the text on spoiler but not the image lmfao.
yes, the lochs is the area you wanna go
when you upload the image, you gotta tag "mark as spoilers"
Same place as the other weapon quests
yeh
sooo never used duty finder as i am new to the game but what are the odds of me getting into sas for my quest ? lol
getting sas? 🤔
yes
oh..
It'll probably take 15-25 minutes
not sure what time is it in your data center
but in peak time shouldn't be taht long
Most people are either asleep or working
yea its 8am here i leave for work in a few hours
do i have to stand at the entrance or can i go do other things
just queue and continue msq/blue quests
You can do other things
when you are in a cutscene you can just accept and repeat the cutscenes later
thanks
Is the Seat of Sacrifice trial item level limited?
If you mean if it has an upper item level sync, pretty sure not
Unless they added one with 5.4
Will lvl 80 roulettes be easier with 510 gear over 490 in general?
hey anyone got BiS materia for blm with latest 5.4 gear exarch?
Only the smallest bit due to how secondary stats scale
You won’t really notice too much of a difference
@frank wigeon balance discord’s BLM channels probably have one if anything. Just follow your melding priorities and that’s probably close to “BiS”
(they asked there already at about the same time and I answered there haha)
Oh ok
I was checking Teamcraft for meld set what does the 'Amount' stand for since when i check off a materia it goes down by 10/15 ? nvm answered
It’s probably making an assumption on your success rate with melds
Yep that was exactly it
those numbers should be triple then
I am only aiming for 2 breakpoints so it shouldnt be as bad i think
Does expert deliveries for a GC help earn rank for your FC if the member is doing expert deliveries for a GC different from the one tied to the FC?
Yes

im regretting dps lol ques are so long
Its unfortunate but pretty much all MMOs have this issue. Theres always a big disparity between DPS and the other roles. Last time they counted I believe they said about 70% of the playerbase is DPS
Hi, so a friend of mine just suddenly stopped playing and asked me to look after the account. But he is PC and I'm ps4.
When I tried logging out of mine to log on his I saw that the username are is greyed out so I can't type his username.. I created a new psn account for it but it gives me an error "cannot launch final fantasy xiv. Please register the promotion code included with your package or download"
Does anyone know a fix for this? Or should I just tell him I can't look after it? Lol
He needs a ps4 license to his account
so i feel like im losing my mind but i dont know how to trigger the ephemeral nodes collectible gathering stuff. i see the moves changed and that theres a new UI but i cant bring that up? do i just gather the item and find the menu somewhere else or does it all have to be done from the gathering point?
To the best of my knowledge collectible gathers now are dedicated, so simply selecting to gather it should bring up the new collectible interface.
😂
have you tried tanking or healing in savage or extreme? Those places should satisfy your need for fun healing n tanking ¯_(ツ)_/¯
well if he done it since ARR, i doubt that's the only thing that made him quit 😂
btw are ffxiv char based on someone irl? i wanna know who they model gaia from 🤔
or it's from scratch?
gotta open the map and check the closest aetheryte
but lavender bed?
once you arrived at the ward
at what level you get a mount this walking crap is aweful
lv 20
lvl 20 main story
im at lim mosa
click the aetheryte plaza and choose "go to residential area"
im 24 and have yet to see it
the quest level, not your character level
u need a small aetheryte?
@kind eagle go to gridania first
not limosa?
yeh
the unlock quest is in central shroud
dafuq?
i need to try, but i'm in cinematic 😂
last question for a while how do i use my limit break i see the bar is full when in combat
It's not your limit break, it's your party's
action & traits menu -> general -> limit break
ooooooh makes since
drag it to your hotbar
How?
How does one get Khloe's Certificate of Commendations? The wiki for it doesn't say
yeah
its not from msq?
nope
nope, unlock quest mostly are blues
that's why blues are considered important
so you not missing out something like this
i just visited another world and can go to it's residential area

What is shiva unreal quest name
shiva unreal isn't in the game anymore
Shiva is gone now and its replaced by titan unreal. Unreal unlocks in Idyllshire
Iirc Fantastic Mr Faux or something
the lost antiquity gear is 510 right?
You need to have unlocked wondrous tails, quest: "Keeping up with the aliapohs"
which piece i should be getting first?
Ah that found it
why is Shiva unreal gone? @@
to fit the theme probably 😂
cause titan unreal is now
storyline doesn't fit shiva anymore
a thing
cant both that and Titan be available?
they just made unreal fights cycle with each patch
if there were multiple at once offering the same rewards then people would only do the easiest one
It might come back
tbf you didn't miss much
Its the exact same as the level 50 one, just at level 80
well as Alphinaud said "Past is learned, not lived" 😂
Completely noob question but as an ast, if i got the bole/ewer/spire but the rest of the party is made up of a tank and 2 melee dps, should i just use the card on myself to get the +6% attack buff?
Give it to a DPS
So i assume all cards should go to the dps, regardless of what kind of card it is?
pmuch
Alright thanks!
but later on you’ll get a skill to better your draws so keep at it
anyone got that JP only website that has every gearset?
like to see what they look like
I cannot for the life of me figure out why my glamour isnt working. I'm a SCH attempting to glamour the Ovim Wool Skirt of Healing. It's not gender-locked afaik, and I'm level 76 (min level to equip) but still it has a red X next to it.
i only know the EN one https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/gearsets
What piece are you attempting to glamour with it? Or glamour it with?
Brightlinen Hose of Healing

Whats the currently equipped gear level?
70
That would be why
You can't glamour something that is a higher level than what you have equipped
^
Well that's dumb. The older gear has better off-stats then the ovim wool skirt, but I need the skirt for my glam. lol
You can only glam down.
Off stats mean nothing with levelling gear
As long as the 76 gear is high quality, its better than whatever you have now
Yeah, secondaries really only matter at level cap. No reason to not just equip the higher level piece.
😩
Rathalos extreme can be farmed unsynced now, right?
You should be able to unsync option it, yes.
Thanks. I know there was a period of time there where you couldn't
That would've been when it was current content. Once you're over the required level for content, unsync should always be available.
It's a level 70 encounter.
nah they kept it synced in 5.0, i think 5.1 or later made it unsyncable
it was weird
That is weird. I thought they'd unlocked it in 5.0 like everything else.
Hey guys, quick question, what are some of the go-to Pots and Food for the endgame just now? Mainly for Tank but I'm also going to end up using either Ranged or Casting DPS in the end game eventually as well, but I really don't know where to start
so i am trying to glamour my ironworks magiteck axe into looking like the martial greataxe, however the game won't let me saying you can't glamour a higher ilevel. However this is not true, as the ironworks axe is ilevel 130 and the martial axe is ilevel 120
this is the item i want the ironworks axe to look like:
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/1f586eb59da/
You need to consider who can equip it
A lvl 50 warrior can equip a lvl 50 i130 axe
But not a lvl 51 i120 axe
my warrior is level 51
But the lvl 50 axe doesn't recognize that
The Ironworks axe is level 50
so it doesn't matter that the ironworks axe has higher ilevel?
No
Not in the context of glamour
Ilvl has nothing to do with glamour
Equip level is the key factor
so i should just equip the martial axe then
since it's only a bit inferior to the ironworks one
The Ironworks axe is better
Seeing that you have a lvl 51 weapon, you are in Heavensward
Level 53 dungeon will drop lvl 53 i130 weapons (not Ironworks, different series of weapons)
has anyone got a PF macro for Emerald Weapon?
You can choose to glamour that as a Martial axe then
Hello, I had a quick question - can a brand new created character attend a wedding, as long as they can get to the venue?
They should be able to
@warped nest also unrelated question, but i am trying to obtain the spear from the aery for my dragoon
i've run the aery 20-30 times with my level 80 summoner unsync'ed and no luck
would it be better to just run the aery synced with my dragoon until i get the weapon from the boss?
Are you commited to getting it from the Aery?
Ok thanks @fresh lodge and @wispy parcel ! I can make more invites, I just had some friends who would have to make a character on Faerie to come. Thanks again!
yea i love the way it looks
Or a different weapon with same model will work?
i want it for glamour purposes
i mean my dragoon is level 73
but i feel like it's not high enough to solo the aery, since it just has scaevan gear
You can solo it
I have done it in Stormblood with DRG and SCH respectively for Anima relic
Will you consider a different weapon that is using the same model as the Aery lance? Or are you commited to getting Aery lance specifically?
Check with Garlandtools (website)
Search for the Spear, and see if it has any Shared Model subsection
I know that the DRK weapons from Aery shares model with two other weapons
I assume that it is the same for all Aery weapons
I will check it out thanks
Anyway, if you are commited to the Aery, I can assure you that it can be solo with DRG on Scaeven gears
Why is E9S punishing guys?
(Just spoiler tag it)
||Cause grids that punish you for not moving :)||
Afaict ||the panel requires a lot of coordination and awareness||
Ouch, ||so barely puggable, but E9N also had such a mechanic.||
||Is E9S different with it?||
E9N removes 4 on the edge, E9S removes 12
||3 panels are removed from Each corner||
Nevermind
It's ||12, 5x5 is 25, 3 per corner is gone, so 13 left, Cloud of Darkness occupied 1, leaving 12 panels for 8 players||
The basic strat is ||each players stay in their assigned panels, then uses the unoccupied 4 to refresh||
Seems simple enough.
Just a lot of coordination
a lot of the coordination ||for the tiles phase can be removed if you have people act according to their initial debuff timer + moving at specific casts, etc||
Cloud of Darkness can ||do an attack that covers half of the arena, leaving exactly 8 panels for 8 players, you need to refresh correctly so you didn't time out a panel and cause it to disappear and drop you||
||the fight is a bit punishing at points, as mechanics can oneshot you/result in others' deaths, but it's plenty recoverable as it has a lenient dps check||
Afaict the rest are just basic ex/savage pattern recognition and mechanical dances
hi im lvl 77 on my BSM and im trying to get it to 80 by ishgard but for some reason i cant craft lvl 70 stuff on ishgard anyone know y? (486 cp, craftsmanship 894, control 1126)
So I had my subscription on steam for a while and it’s about to renew for 180 days (6 months) if I wanted to do 12 months is that possible? I can’t even remember where you get the subscription from on steam, I was looking on there steam page and there is nothing to buy a subscription???
are the servers up? i was playing a few hours ago, took a nap, woke up to "unexpected error has occured" and i can't login on any pc fixed
who can i give the tomestones of phantasmagoria too now that they're discontinued?
Yes they are. They've been up for a whole day
Auriana in Mor Dohna
Sub pay is monthly
It’s not though and that’s not what I asked really
As far as i know, you can't pay for a whole years worth of a sub
Like on steam where do you even change your sub say from six month to one month or whatever though?
What should I do with the fish after ocean fishing?
You think they will ever finally give us that sweet Sephiroth galmour?
I think you have to attach your Steam Wallet to mogstation
Whats the best use of allegory tomes? The only thing i know ican use it for is for crystarium gear. Is that the only thing?
Crystarium gear, allegory crafting mats for new battle sets (Exarchaic gear)
hey if I have to uninstall the game my char and all my progress is saved in cloud right?
Yes
Yes but not your setting, hud or hotbars
does that include all the mog purchases?
You have to back those up in the game
back up how?
Mogstation purchases should be registered to your account.
You can upload HUD to the servers tho through the character creation screen
like if I've already claimed them
Same for system setting s
and am wearing
They should still be registered to the character.
Mogstation purchase don't go away unless you trash them for whatever reason. You don't lose them if you uninstall
Where can I find the Stormblood Allied Beast Tribe Quest? I just finished them all and I want that emote
It is already attached
Does anyone know at what point Main story quests of different starting areas meet each other?
e.g. I start as Arcanist in Limsa Lominsa and a friend starts as Gladiator in Ul'dah. We want to play together tho. From what point in our MSQ onwards can we do so?
noice, this cyberpunk update might mean I need to uninstall temporarily but I hope now
not*
But wh I am asking I can’t remember how I did all this in the first place...
There's a quest around level 15 called "It's Probably Pirates" which is where the questlines ostensibly converge.
Since that's the first dungeon.
Okay, thanks for helping a noob out 🙂
Shortly before then, however, you'll unlock the ability to travel to other major cities with the quest "The Emmisary of (starting city name)"
is there something like augmented crystarium gear?
But our main quests will be the same after the dungeon, correct?
Correct.

You can augment crystarium gear.
@open ember thanks!Q
You need 1 coin each from Copied Factory and Puppet's Bunker to purchase the upgrade item (or get them from E5-8S)
Bunker and Copied Factory coins to augment
Okay, so no point doing it for non savage raiders
Also its easier to augment now because there is no weekly limit on Bunker anymore
Unless you want to be able to dye the Crystarium gear, yeah. There's not really much point.
I mean, it's an ilevel upgrade, but there's new tomestone gear out now too.
And that's even higher ilevel.
I would say crystarium is good for alt jobs
wait, Nier automata collabs is permanent?
Yes
thats Epic
They are alliance raids for Shadowbringers. They arent going anywhere
Monster hunter collab is still around too
Yep
Only the world-based collabs go away after a time - the ones that are linked to FATEs and solo-instances.
Group content collabs are permanent.
ok, still havent tried them,
so thats good to know
they will remain the casual way to augment tomestone gear
You guys quite have dodged my question
Anyone know where the royal lion housing item comes from? Haven’t been able to find any info as of yet.

About beast tribes? The Namazu are in Azim Steppe, Ananta are in The Fringes, and Kojin are in the Ruby Sea
He means the actual quest
I meant the quesrs
Quest
I'm pretty sure it the full questlines start up
Not the final one
Are you max rep fully?
What a wonderful world is the finisher quest
You do need to be max rep and have completed the quests for all three tribes, then the last quest should be in the Azim Steppe at the indicated coordinates in the screenshot Mashuwu posted.
anyone know what to do with ocean fishing fish after each run?
should I just sell them or do they have special desynth loot or what?
Desynth or housing decorations
they're all desynth level 1.00
Yeah because it’s more of a game than a reward
And you'll usually get sand or the ocean fishing bait
For fishing voyages
Most of the fish worth anything via desynth are legendary fish in a location.
Normally it’s the bathing suit ones.
Should I use direct hit materia for a healer if I can't use Critical hit?
Whm specifically
where are defragmented tomestones found? and is the total of 6,010 revelations for a set of cryptlurker gear accurate? that's 12 weeks of farming
You have to do new eden eternity every week to get blade of antiquity
Then u can trade that blade of antiquity for defragmented stone
At yhal yal I think that is his nane in eulmore
Name*
And the total is accurate. It's on par to how it's been.
Hit Max lvl as a tank and still got the whole ShB MSQ to do...
was thinking of doing an ult but not sure which 
I play PLD so do I go Arcanist so I have both a healer and summoner? or just go AST
arcanist
ah, so how do people generally farm multiple gearsets?
a combination of crafted gear, raid, and alliance raid when its relevant
and tomes when applicable
^
you would need lv 70 1 tank, 1 healer, 1 magic dps and 1 physical dps to do the role quest later @pearl perch 🤔
thought u could do the role quests with all D:
Crafted if you need it now, but Eden and weekly cap is the slow pace for current armor
wait, is edenmorn better or augmented cryptlurker?
if you got both arcanist and scholar, you could just start samurai from lv 50
Depends on the stats and if you mean Eden normal or savage
Each class generally has a “best in slot” BiS
@pearl perch It's similar in approach to the beast tribes. You have to do the appropriate role quests with the respective role. When they're all done you get a follow up chain that doesn't require a specific role.
sure
though the BiS is really for min-maxing or if you're planning on tackling ex/savage/ultimate. For regular content either is perfectly fine.
Yeah, the crypt gear when augmented should be better than an Eden normal set.
The augmentation part though is generally from raiding or from 24 mans/hunts.
@pearl perch you aren't gonna like the dps queue times if you've gotten used to running MSQ dungeons as a tank
i would recommend another tank job or healer role
Ranger dps queues for leveling can be rough. If you’ve only played mostly tanks.
Ranged*
it's the same for all dps
i dont think the game distinguishes between melee dps and range dps
It doesnt no
although i've heard back in ARR days, dragoon was considered something like an off-tank
so maybe dragoon got prioritized im not sure
yeh, samurai starts from lv 50
or does tank work as a "discipline of war" for these quests
u dont need to have any class
but if you like mch you could
can run PotD until a certain point and do roulettes
not about dow/dom
u can do PotD with any class
at any level
i believe u have to be 50 in order to do most of the roulettes, outside the leveling roulette though
so just SAM for the role quest?
yea but be forewarned, the gear u get from the npc for samurai initially is very weak
huh it's up to you o_o
you are playing the class
i just said sam cause it's the highest level hehe
i think MCH starts at 30
nah gonna do MCH. Like it's style more
well gonna decide on that after I do arcanist
what's a recommended way to lvl up?
yeh, arcanist hunting log till lv 15 -> potd till 30
do potd
dungeon spam as a sch 😂
xD
since you can unlock both smn and sch
or do highest leveling dungeon
you don't need to level both, they level together hehe
@pearl perch fastest way to level machinist is to do haukke manor til u hit level 32, then brayflox until 35, qarn until 38, cutter's cry until 41, stone vigil until 44, dzemael darkhold until 47
then aurum vale
u could probably skip aurum vale honestly
Unless your queue times are longer than 15 minutes. Just spam PotD instead then.
since 50% of the time when i run aurum vale, the healer/tank doesn't know what they are doing
But yeah, dungeon runs and roulettes is the way to go
so just do potd from 44-50
to avoid the pugs that don't know how to run dzemael and aurum
They updated aurum so coincounter doesn’t instagib new people. It’s not as horrid as it was.
it's still very hard on new healers
my game stutters after every single patch for several days. is this a common problem on pc?
