My samurai have no shield yet
That's for PLD as it has 'two' items that count as weapons
It's stats gets seperated over two weapons
What server are u
I'm green.
I'm Aether.
Aetheryte?
how long would it take me to get the first stage of the elemental armor? if i just started now :C
aether is an NA data center
I dont live in jp
is a pentamelded crafted gear > the normal raid gear?
in general it will be. Some pieces for some jobs can come out a little ahead depending on substats
But pentameld/crafted isn't attainable for everyone
So raid gear is easier to come by until prices really drop.
Random question if someone could answer without spoilers: how much Aymeric interaction do we get in 5.4?
not much
Thanks. Was curious. My wife hasn't had time to play yet and is dying for some Aymeric
a woman of culture as well
@raw solstice Just finished downloading. I had i139. lol
thats barely better than ARR gear
Ok. This one is on me. On the bright side, after fixing this I'll get to do more than spam adlo.
don't buy NQ gear from vendors
Head over heels. She has a glamour plate specifically to match him when he'll be in a quest, and his chibi Taito figure on her desk
u shoulnd spam adlo š¤
how do I interact with this?
how do u unluck more dungeons is it from the MSQ?
thatās a vista from sightseeing log
oh huh. I just discovered as it disappeared I was at the wrong thing. I was lead to a unspoiled mature tree, saw that before going around to the otherside where it was
I completed ||amarout, twinning, and akademia|| but i still canāt access the lvl 80 daily dungeon roulette. Am I missing something?
More dungeons come from msq and blue quests
you need 2 more dungeons
Itās just locked. It says āfollowing requirements not met: completion of the following: ???ā and thatās it
I thought i just had to do those 3 dungeons?
yeah, thats ||grand cosmos||, 5.1 dungeon
oh 
ok not opening that since itās obviously a spoiler but iāll take your word for it
ty guys

How do you unlock Eden Promise Savage?
I talked to Lewrey
but my Duty Finder didnt show any Savage.
Apologies, I am brand new to FFXIV, as I just started playing today. Currently level 8 Roegadyn gladiator. I'm unsure where to ask my litany of questions, sorry
here is good
Thank you. I finally have about 1,500 gil, and am still wearing starting gear. Should I start buying some now, or hold off?
main scenario quests and job quests will give you gears; good enough to progress with msq
actual need to buy gears comes so so much later so dw
do hall of the novice asap
Hall of the Novice?
you will know at level 15
Oh ok, thank you
If you relocate to a house that's the same size as your last house, does everything stay the same or do you have start from scratch in terms of decorating? :x
ive had to restart

is there a good way to farm money that doesn't require you to have a maxed out doh/dol class? I just want to get my 510 armor
doing all your roulettes daily nets you 1mil gil per week
Farming extreme trials for their weapons can be profitable if you're lucky
drops for their weapons
the weapons are untradeable from the drop
the sellable ones are the crafted ones
which you cant do if you arent a crafter
Before bozja I farmed nidhogg scales
i got my money through eureka
I think shinryu parts are still going for a fair bit. Pegasus from gold sacks in potd and dodo from hoh also sell well
those drop from above floor 100 in potd, and above floor 30 in hoh
which are not the easiest things to get past
Can someone walk me through how to play Samurai?
Collect stickers, spend stickers
Kidding but also serious
Ty
What level are you on sam
50
Your rotation is very simple for now then
Are there any skills I'm not going to be using?
What does this do
I've only played Black Mage so far
._.
makes your positionals hit no matter where you are
You have 3 stickers you can collect, which I use 1 -> shift 1,. 2 -> shift 2, 3 -> shift 3 for single target. Then you have two aoe with a second attack as well.
Samurai doesn't have positional requirements for awhile
OH!
rear is rear of the boss
I see
You'll use it later on for bigger gauge increases
true north negates you having to be in a particular spot to get the damage boost
Damage mitigation when you see a big ability coming, later it combos into a self heal
or an attack
Wait
^ by sticker he means sen
So the type of sticker doesn't matter
No
no
Just the amount
It's just a guage that fills 3 bars
yes
Like limit break guage
Well
yes and no
sure?
I wouldn't say it like that but sure?
._.
If it works for you
it changes based on amount yes
each of your 3 combos gives a different color sticker
1 sticker = higanbana, 2 sticker = that aoe one, 3 sticker = midare
and you need 1 of each to do midare
I don't even bother with the silly names
Oooooh
whats the best thing money wise to buy with yelllow craft scripts
Check your server's market
One sticker = DoT, keep it up all the time on bosses. Two stickers = AoE cone, three stickers= big single target damage
Probably one of the materia V's but which one? Can't say
what else?
just materia?
Is that a sticker thingy
yes
getsu is sticker
oh wait
All 3 of your combo finishers give a sticker
yukikaze
you do hakaze > jinpu > gekko for one combo
hakaze > shifu > kasha for another
hakaze > yukikaze for the last
the sam openers ive seen start gekko first
Can I use Shifu > Oka > Oka
š
For AOE or...?
its fuga > oka
Wait
or fuga > mangetsu
Point of note: I did not emphasize putting up buffs at the start of a dungeon enough. While the tank is pulling enemies, you have time to do single target attacks while the tank group's allies up. Just be wary of your aggro and spread your hits across all of the enemies until everything is grouped, then AoE away.
New? Got too many skills? Have ...
no
So I need to reset the combo to get the buff
fuga > oka > fuga >oka > repeat
!action Oka
Using it directly doesn't work under normal circumstances
You can't double oka combo to get two stickers anyway since they give the SAME sticker
That makes every skill count as combo?
Yes
Basically yes
only use that on the flower actions tho
it lets you skip straight to the combo end to get the sticker
So I use that to get all 3 stickers
its a waste of an action if you dont
I strongly suggest watching the video
I will
basically yes
Don't start off with that in combat since you want to do your combos fully at the start to get all the buffs
but after that you use meikyo
You have the correct idea, but there is a better way to do it to get more value out of it
Can Puppet Bunker stuff be turned in for company seals yet?
Posting the video again, watch this to understand the basic on how to play samurai

So fists of wind is pretty much useless again now, right?
correct, no reason to be in wind unless you really need the movement speed
Pretty sure they're just gonna just remove all those buffs in 6.0 and just add a permanent damage buff to make up for fists of fire's absence.
Det trumps skill speed for monk, right?
getting sks to tier should always be first priority
I've literally never had anyone tell me to prioritize skill speed materia over everything else.
They've all said to make crit the priority then direct hit
for other dps that dont really need sks sure
you should be hitting the tier though
for monk
You're literally the first person I've talked to who's said to be using skill speed materia.
So forgive me if I'm apprehensive.
hey guys.. when i play my game in fullscreen, my mouse still can click on my second monitor without me alt+tabbing
What do I meld/gear during prog? - Go for big crit as usual, speed low around the 761 tier or whatever's comfortable, DET/DH tiering is hecked up anytime you change either so try to keep them somewhere around 1:1 to 3:2 DH per point of DET unless you want to check tiers every upgrad
is there way for my mouse not be able to go out of game window?
dark knight, sam, black mage, ast all need skill/spell speed to tier
so yes you do use skill/spell speed materia
I'm monk.
monk sks tier is 802
yeah current BiS set up for mnk is 802
In the seven years I've been playing this game, you're literally the first person I've talked to that has said I should be prioritize skill speed above everything else
i said get sks to tier, i didnt say slap all the sks you can on it above everything else
Well it's currently at 1305 sooo
many classes have skill/spell speed tiers
Don't think that'll be an issue
@pulsar kayak system configuration > mouse settings > limit mouse operation to game window
thanks.

to be a bit precise, when talking about desired sks/sps, and about stat tiering. Sks/sps tiers are a specific thing and shared for all jobs evenly (even the same between sks/sps). Certain jobs might have desired sks/sps tiers for alignment reasons or whatever, but I wouldn't advise referring it as "sks tier for monk is 802"
it's a bit of a nuanced thing and mostly not a big deal but clarity is a good thing
are manufactured coins from copied factory only given out once a week?
or everytime it's completed?
every time you complete it
ty š
Is it normally impossible to get a queue to pop for Seat of Sacrifice?
no?
I'm thinking it may be everyone playing Cyberpunk
I got SoS in roulette earlier, so it's not impossible, especially since it's roulette now
might just be bad luck
what role are you
I've been waiting 18 minutes now as tank
oof
Not a single other person in queue
might just be bad luck since it's the middle of the week
I'll just browse the web then, hopefully I notice it pop (if it does)
EX or normal?
you can make it so you hear system sounds even when tabbed out of the window in the settings
It's only 10 pm here
yeah but its 1 am on the east coast
which mat should I get from allegories?
I see, thanks
Aluminum Ore, Workbench Refining Sand, Thylacoleo Skin, and Gardenia Fruit will be the most likely to sell well
Alright, thanks !
are you able to marry someone who is free trial?
Does anyone know of a single infographic that describes 5.4 gear progression? I have the basic idea, Iād just like something to quickly be able to refer to
Does melding materia to gear increase IL?
no it doesnt
Guys, my sprout friend have error i2501 while register his activation code
He have eu account and eu region of complete collection
He never used vpn
He tried using firefox
He dont have mobile data
I don't know if this is the right discord but i'm trying to download Final Fantasy online but this is what happens
So how does buying the subscription and the Standard edition (the one with the whole game) work?
I buy the game, and then the 180 day subscription and get both the 30 day free sub and then the 180 day paid sub?
So I wonāt need to buy another sub for 210 days right?

btw, r there rly new retainer ventures in 5.4? Checked & still only saw xxv as the latest š¤
Can anyone help me with my promblem??
you have the edition 30 days + 180 days that you paid, so you will play 210 days of subs
Thx
Seems no one give a damn of the question
Is this someone trying to sell services?
Most likely. Since the advertisement doesn't say they're selling clears for real money, it's not reportable
I see
that's why they keep it vague and say you have to go to the discord
Fastest way to farm allegory?
try your server's NN, you may be able to queue with a friendly tank or healer
NN?
Novice Network
What's that
it's a chat channel for new players, returning players, and Mentors
How do I access it
a mentor will have to invite you to it, find someone with a
by their name and ask them
Would it be bad manners to /shout asking for someone to invite ._.
Whatās the best use for old aug neo ish , crystarium gears? Company seals?
2501 afaict is a generic error code. We can't offer any thing specific to help, sorry
If you don't want to keep them as glamour, yeah, company seals
shouting is fine

can someone explain to me the lego phase in castrum marinum extreme please
If you're not on the free trial, you can also try recruiting people through Party Finder, though people will likely only join if you're doing an unsynced run
Thereās 2 north exits from dragon tower, middle floor leads to cavern & upper floor lets u ascend the mountain
any1?
thank youu
do gametime cards expire
is ACT updated?
Hey have any of yall experienced a new bug this patch where the person who initiates a Ready Check can't right click on items on their inventory while it's being resolved?
And does SE know about it already?
Yes
š¤ guess mine's broken
no1 here checks their retainers?
For the barrage part in emerald ex, do you dodge the soldiers first then gunships?
There's no need for passive aggressively asking again... if someone had an answer to your question, they would have said something
Nobody's omnipotent. Lots of folk are busy enjoying the new patch :V
What does this mean?
something shit itself.
Might be worth reinstalling drivers but it could also be you just looking at FFXIV wrong, sometimes.
I wish I could give a better explanation but it happens to me randomly as well
what materia should i use on healer? or if its job-specific, on AST?
well... kinda odd if majority havenāt bothered to check their retainers, those are daily stuff to do
You can usually get away with Crit most of the time, but piety is nice in a pinch. recommend checking the balance to see their math
I just send them out on quick ventures and forget about them for the rest of the day
afaik they didnt add any new ventures, only changed the ilvl/gear and pool for them
Even i already finished majority of 5.4 patch content & still check em on daily basis
cmiiw but... isnāt quick vent hourly only? Kinda asking about the exploration venture ones tho
@leaden ginkgo do you happen to be plugging in a headset or what not during that?
they added exploration venture levels
It is, but I'm also lazy
no headset
It's been literally years since the last time I sent a retainer on an 18h venture
@leaden ginkgo restart the game and if it doesnt happen again youre fine
My habit is, if I know I will be away for 12+ hours, I will send retainers for the 18 hours venture
Yea, but where though? Like i said, still only saw xxv as latest unless itās something else š¤
My sound's busted
normally I can fix this if I restart my comp but I would not like to
Patch notes did say about giving better gears to retainers would unlock something but I havenāt the clue
they probably added stuff within the sub categories
@leaden ginkgo how is it busted
It's like
I can't hear a single thing even when it's not connected to headset
and I can't load videos either
You might be missing a media pack or two from Microsoft
I'm not sure, though.
@tender estuary audio issues
sometimes you can get that if you unplug your audio device by accident or change audio devices etc.
if it doesnt happen frequently and that sounds like something they did then I wouldnt sweat it but if not then we can diagnose it further
it's more of youtube videos
can you not hear anything at all on your PC?
yes I can't
I just tried a command mission. I won, but is there a way to make them act less stupid? they're just standing in that area taking damage.
even youtube videos I can't load
what happens when you click the sound icon in the bottom right
@agile night no the ai is pretty stupid
even if the icon's normal nothing improves
You can click Disengage to have them stop attacking and move to you, but they are really dumb most of the time
and you're positive you have your speakers/headphones plugged in?
is it a laptop or desktop

ah the speaker is now x icon
here lets bring this down to #technology-discussion I can help you further there
ok
@agile night it is braylox longstop?
yeah
the dragon will always aim poison at you, so you can just ranged dps or chill at the corner, away from the group
same with every other command missions. If you're a DPS, you can just chill and let the group kill things without you, while you bait mechanics to keep them safe
they weren't standing in it originally, I don't remember now how it happened. I might have stood under the dragon prompting it and them to move
good to know though, I'll try that
good squadron group ((offensive 3-star or more) clear things much faster than your duty finder group
Just wondering, if I buy 2 Promise of Devotions, I redeem the codes on my account and then gift it to someone right?
Or do i give them the code for the second one?
Yeah trade in game
I nearly forgot squadron exist š
wonder if thereās good comprehensive guide about grinding their ranks on dungeons... š¤
Like I redeem them both from my account and then trade it to my partner
Already cleared all available dungeons with em last time, but ranking them up are so slow & randomly
Even setting on a role would sometimes ended up ranking up different role instead
squadron's tactic leveling is completely random. Sometimes it doesn't give you any level up, lol
just spam it till you max what you want. But if every of your combat classes is already 60+, there is no point in them XD
I'm going to have to look into how I should actually use them for command missions after this. right now they're just annoying. tank doesn't pull anything, they attack whatever.
I still havenāt done the squad dungeon achievement tho, majority only 1st time dungeon clears with then š
Would love to finish this old achievement at least
at least would love to know which dungeon best to fast spam clear
braylox or stone vigil. They are straight forward without any pause
just did halatali. getting them to focus on the right thing during the dragon in water and the final boss were difficult
Gotcha. Thx alot! š
haltatali second and third boss steal your time with their no-damage phase
Just heads up tho: wanderer palace hm will frustate ur squad runs š
imo the most difficult squad dungeon runs
right now I don't know how many I'll do, just read I need 5 to get the next promotion
you need 5 different one, so just do 5 ones starting Hatahali
really shouldnt do the 50/60 dungeons anyway
most of them are going to be annoying
and theyre not good for leveling
I think u can do promotions without dungeons tho, iirc i did without it (content wasnāt even released back then)
ah...
then yea, probably just do easiest ones then
I think thereās 1st time clear bonus with squads but I donāt remember what
no
what's the fastest way to farm allegory?
But... only do em if u rly have free time, very low priority imo
oh I lied, I have to do crystal recovery for the next promotion, then 5 command missions for the promotion after that. well, I gotta do them anyway.
hunt trains & roulettes i guess
ye. can cap allegory in like 2 trains iirc
aight ty
back then we have 3.0 research facility dungeon to spam tome farms, but itās for poetic now. I dunno what dungeons best for allegory these days
For non roulettes that is
I think thatās for weekly tomes
really, no reason to farm dungeons for allegory unless you can't get an expert in every day for 5 days
just a quick q - this is more like a password question. So, I don't know why but my password doesn't work on the client (steam) but when it works on mogstation. I'm short of resetting it but i wonder if y'all got an idea what's going on here?
it's weird tbh
you can't sign into the Steam Client with a Standalone account and vice versa
ya i know that
I can't help you anymore since there's not enough context
this looks very generic, what's the point of it
oh, it's honestly literally just that. i open the steam client for the game and put in my normal log in details and it doesn't accept it. but when i put it in mogstation, it logs in easy. just wondering if anyone got an idea why it doesn't work on the game client, is all
anything else?
not enough context, can't help you anymore
else of what? drops?
like is your account tied to your mogstation and all that
f2p
active sub
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
ppl did rarely record having retainers grabbing rare mounts if rng really favors u š
eh? oh. i thought it was just clear enough, sorry. active sub, literally was on yesterday, put in sub the day before maint, and i already figured out the problem on my side omg jesus sorry 
there's no mounts that quick ventures can bring back
oh you didn't say you solved it mb
yeah, it just went in just now
thanks for the attempt help tho, i'll try and be more detailed next time
The reports came from OF back then, during 2.0 retainers did able to steal horse mount, but like i said āvery rarelyā. Itās quick vent anyways, anything can happens, including stealing furnitures. š
while quick venture is a very large pool
mounts are not part of it
and that sounds like it was a bug
do unsynched clears count for wondrous tails?
yes
yesss ok thanks that's helpful
Maybe, I personally donāt use quick vent much coz it mostly tends to crap space real fast anyways
Especially when u still only have the 2 freebies š
how many times in 24h does the squadron training count reset?
once, same time the gc turn ins reset
thank you...it confused me quite a bit...
what's the command for kupobot to post the subscription cost image again?

!faq subprice
thank you <3
where do you get the fake smile emote
There gonna be a Starlight Festival event this year?
Itās added to your list by default, no unlock necessary
Yep starting on the 14th
Rewards snowman costume mount
Youāre inside a snowman, and when you move you lift up its head to poke your own head out from inside the body
oh god that's too cute
so im on the choosing of my grand company what is a grand company and how is this gonna affect me?
Okay
Grand company affects what items you have
Like uniform and higher ranks
along with titles
difference is only visual
grand companies are each nationās army; doesnt matter what you choose except for looks/ glams
ok ok
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
Link there to see the gear
so i should prob see how each look then and ty for the faq
imo I recommend joining the GC stationed in your starting city, to make it easier
because you'll have to come back and do trade in for comapny seals
any old gear and whatnot
ok tht make sense
by the time you can join a gc, your starting city doesnt matter anymore though
just pick whatever ... you can always change later
Your starting city has no bearing on anything
alrighty
Anyone know why this happens
for those who have played previous patches... is it a good idea to stock up on the puppet coins right now so when the new augmented eulmore gear switches to coin exchange for crypt twine (etc), you can get a stack of them?
well, the 3rd nier raid is going to be weekly locked
so you're only be able to get 1 token from it a week
would the token be the same puppet coin tokens, or something different?
so yes it'd still be a good idea to have a stockpile of the previous 2
yeah. that makes sense. ok thank you!
Gc @ limsa best since ppl hangs out alot there & also due to much easier xserver jump & checking mb real quick, uldah has gc literally next to main aetheryte, & gridania if u donāt like too much crowd or having stalker issues
Um excuse me, that might be a noob question, but does that mean Im not supposed to start on the EXP boost server if Im new?
i thought puppet's bunker was unlocked, but it still said something about me receiving my weekly reward when i completed it. Is that just for the coin?
Can jump between gc anyways with 50k gil cost
there currently are no new servers, so that point is moot @pulsar hollow
that said, it is strongly recommended for new players to go to a preferred server since the road to 70 buff is extremely strong
@brave sky you still get 2 cracked stellaclusters when you clear, which is what it is referring to
Where do I find the crystal tower questline?
have i missed something if i dont have the painflare quest in old gridania, because im 52, but the npc doesnt have any quests for me
Locked behind it
the initial quest for crystal tower is in mor dhona, near the main aetheryte. "legacy of allag"
have you entered ishgard yet? @drifting sparrow
I just received a wonderous tails journal. So I understand complete tasks, get reward. It seems it wants me to do 9 tasks, what happens if I did more, or accidentally did one I didn't mean to
not yet, still doing the run around quests
then you need to progress the msq
ah, fair, thanks
50-60 heavensward job quests can only be picked up once you've gotten to the heavensward msq
nothing, once you get 9 stickers you're done with the book and should turn it in. doing more activities is moot @agile night
might be hard getting 3 in a row if I have to go out of my way to avoid certain duties
well rng is gonna be your main issue
you can use 2nd chance points to reset the ones you've already done
You donāt have to avoid any duties
I might be thinking too far ahead. looking at the tasks it gave me, I have access to like half of them
You can repeat duties with a second chance point
so you can do them again until you have 9 stickers
ah
Hi I have a MNK question, since they made GL as passive is Fist of the Wind still useful?
Nope!
Back to fists of fire at all times
Fists of wind when running around in town I guess

Kind of sad but less complicated thanks. if thats the case my 2 buttons are now very situational
how is cryptlurker gear augmented?
savage only
Via crypt ester/twine/glaze from savage
You'll be able to get them with Nuts and Nier Raid 1+2+3 coins in 5.5
is there anything to gain or potentially lose from having more levels or not enough levels above the item you want to meld?
Items don't have levels.
I donāt understand the question
Uh
Do you mean melding success chance on low level gear or something?
from what i was told you cant meld an item higher than your crafter level right?
Your level relative to the item doesnāt change the chance
The only thing that affects overmeld chances are if it's HQ or NQ
If you have a crafter at the appropriate level to meld the item, you can meld the item
oh ok, thanks!
For normal raids, the items that are limited to one per floor per week are the "X of ||Lost Antiquity||", right? So you can only get a total of four of them weekly?
I got my DNC ilvl 500 weapon and upgraded it to the glowy bit, is there more steps or is that it currently?
oh oki! Was way easier than eureka haha
Correct
Plus one guaranteed āblade of lost antiquityā from E12 which goes straight in your inventory
Ohhhhhhh, okay, that's it
Which is separate from the one you can roll for in that fight
because my next question was: how the hell do I have five of them, did I game the system or missing something
clearly, the answer was the latter :p
...I was hoping I misunderstood and could get a bunch more, that juicy, affordable iLvl
Should I meld my ilvl 500 relic weapon? Or wait until later? or is there another weapon that is higher than 500
Melding is very cheap so yes meld it
The new patch has higher ilvl weapons
But youāll want your current weapon melded in order to get them in the first place
Unless you buy the crafted weapon
But if youāre not doing bleeding-edge progression thatās not necessary
Um aren't they like expensive like 1M expensive the i510 ones?
there are several things above i500
-Crafted gear for i510, which will run you an large sum of gil if you can't make it,
-||Castrum Marinum EX, for which you'd already need an iLvl of 500|| for i515,
-Tomestones of Revelation for i520 (afaik unachievable at this point without time travel)
-upgrades to that via Savage drops for i530,
-Savage drops for i535
If they all sound implausible or not worth the effort, you'll probably be fine with the i500 for normal mode content
I'm still using 480 gear since I am poor and haven't done a lot of content š
The prices will go down over time--- it's driven by the fact that some people really need it early. Checking right now in my server, the i510 left side pieces are oooonly about 500 000. Still outta my wheelhouse but a far cry from several million from the first few hours
I am just planning to do the crystal thingies and hopefully do the eden ones
after that maybe I can get those 515 emerald weapons
q, do melee's with positionals really be behind the red bar line around the boss to be able to do the positional, and not inside?
you will need the i485 for some normal mode content
No it doesnāt matter
They can be inside or outside the circle
if you imagine a line between yourself and the very centre of that circle, and draw it out in both directions into infinity, it should be a "rear hit" as long as that line doesn't touch the flank areas, if that makes any sense
Just in the right 90 degree quarter for direction
ok, cause they said they "could not do positionals" cause they had to be outside of the circle to do it, and since e9s has so such big circle, they were always out, and not inside the healing bubble
for some reason
Just ignorant then
They are mistaken or just not hitting their positionals correctly
Maybe itās hard for them to see where the divisions are without the circle
But
Itās the sign of an inexperienced player.
It shouldnāt be a problem.
Question, is Form shift now unnecessary except for opo-opo form + dragon kick
Itās for your opener basically yeah
Which AFAIK should be twin snakes not dragon kick
I got into the habbit of pressing it every 13 secs when walking throughout mobs XD
its also done with reopener, or after downtime
You asked this same question in NN and i answered you bro
im hurt
I mean I used in spamming form shift
to unlock e9s , do i need to complete normal e9-e12?
yes
yes
Yes
what other uses now instead of opener
tks!
it sees more uses than Anatman, that's for sure
opener and downtime you do Form Shift, whereas Anatman you just do during downtime
and Fist stance is worse, only on opener lmao, Fist of Fire
you probably believed it already, but here's me noclipping incredibly close into a striking dummy and getting +5, +5, then +10 Kenki from the rear positional https://i.imgur.com/SjRmKDI.mp4
managed to convince them by saying "ask balance"

yer SAM is probably stoopid and should try doing it on a dummy, as the gif shows
yeah, well, i mean they aren't that experienced or has experimented with things they thought were wrong/correct.
if someone believes something is truth, they don't bother double checking
thankfully if i hadn't asked myself why they were not inside the bubble, they probably would never have been going inside the healer bubble.
bro i hate this
if you arent inside Earthly Star/Asylum, you are not getting extra healing
yeah, exactly
if you die, you died, by your own fault
but like, they were a bit too convinced that you must be behind the red boss line to do positionals
so like, "its the job's fault, not mine" is prob what they were thinking
aand, the boss's red circle, has the exact same radius as the healing bubble
aka e9s.
This is becoming less answering a question and more of a discussion
sorry, just realized
Oh but i do got a question tho, what is the best food right now for healer?
cuz there was no replacement for the Herring Pie
Pineapple Juice has Piety tho... The salad sounds good enough, i guess
and either golden pineapple juice or pineapple salad if you want piety
Hmmh... smoked chicken is the when-in-doubt food no?
if you need to hit a sps tier, then i'd go salad
if you want more crit/det, then do smoked chicken
eh, there is not really an SpS tier on WHM, so i'll stick to Chicken, ty fella

Hello, anyone for Bunny FATE in Hydatos? For the Mount, DM Me
does the newest eden normal prize limit is limited to "Specific" one, or limited once per stage?
Like, can I get 4 bangle from one week? I mean four of them drops bangle
so i been wondering is there any way i can get gil out of the fc housing?
I'm in Crystal-Diabolos server i own a Large FC house in Shirogane. There is literally no other house from S to L in all 24 wards that is avaliable.
I thought if i took all the things out the Fc house and the storage that i can sell the house and atleast get some of my Gil back, but i only see relinquish option and it says something but don't think that's going to give me any gil back?
I'm a Returned player and the only people in my fc are: me, my husband, his brother, and my best friend. So we don't ever go to the fc house, literally ever lmao. We had it for over a year and never really went to it. So i was wondering if there is any way to get gil out of this Large FC house?
If i switch fc house from Large to a Small one will i get money back? I haven't been on in months and kind of clueless
yes, the only limit is per fight
alright thank you
One per stage, doesn't matter if you get four of the same kind
Oops
Azura helped you
no its okay, thank you
you can make a PF ad, and "sell" the house, as in, people will give you gil for you to relinquish it
Pf?
You can also just sell the FC
honestly if its an FC house
O
there's no reason to relinquish
you should just sell the fc to them and trade leadership
<_>
Btw whats RMT?
Real Money Trade
Real money trading
You can hand over leadership of your FC and then leave the FC
Thatās effectively transferring the FC house
People will pay up for that
And that's the sad part i dont wanna get rid of the fc its lvl 9 and me and my husband and his bro and my bestie gal lvled it all by ourselves :<
Then donāt!
since auto demolish is turned back on, you could just wait for that to kick in
Why cant ff14 just give people their gul back when relinquish!
Can just get gil the old-fashioned ways
They always make it so hard lmao
but depending on the last time someone entered the house, that may be a while
Which was like 2min ago @twilit arch lmao i cry

Lol rarely use discors i like this emoji already
I feel like such an old lady man all the hips in their 20s be knowing so much while me and my husband wilting hahaha
Okay so where do i go again especially to sell fc house? <_>
Or to relinquish thingy to someone
Party finder
you can relinquish the land, thru a PF ad, you talk the details with the person thru /tells (private messages) and then you sort it out
mind you, you cant scam them, and they cant scam you, because its reportable if all details were talked thru private messages, there is a log and GMs can dig thru em
but do not talk it thru discord >_>
in order to relinquish, you take out the house, any items inside it and leave the plot empty
and then go to Social(one of the buttons from down there) Housing>Estate Settings
and i think Relinquish land? i dont remember exactly how it was
Is there a way to "lock" the XIV window when playing on windowed mode? Sometimes I accidentally drag the window in the middle of a fight.
Donāt relinquish land
You get nothing for it.
If you want to get rid of your house for money, then take furnishings out of it, kick everyone from your FC and advertise in party finder that youāre selling a FC with (small/medium/large) house
AFAIK there is a way to lock cursor onto window
When you get a buyer, invite them to the FC, promote them to master and then leave the fc
Now the fc and its house are theirs
yeh, also dont worry about the lvl @deft oar FC rank is easy to get up
system configuration > mouse settings > limit mouse operation to game window @gritty oracle
Here bro
Thanks! Is there a way to bind that setting to a hotkey or something?
so I can quickly enable/disable it as needed
Nope š
@finite topaz I'm not worried about scamming I'm worried to be scammed š¤£
Then have them pay you before transferring fc leadership
But if the agreement is talked about in chat
Then they can be reported to a GM if they do not uphold it
Breaking player agreements of this nature is against the TOS.
terms of service

Ah
Price hmm
Housing is very desirable right now since there are virtually no open plots
Iām not sure what the prices are like for transferring
Like. Bruh i was thinking like 20m and then had someone on amino call me nuts saying they are like 50mil+ prices changed a lot now that games superrrr crowded and my house the only one up for sale in my server!
honestly i would just ask for plot price + price of build permit
Last time i was on game was soooo dead
since you have a large
A large house? Wowie
when was this last time? š¤
that's like 40-50mil+3mil? i think for permit
Yee plot 33 in shirogane
oh yeah that's popular
So yeah at least charge like 55mil Iād say
nice view, close to mb
I was last on when cap was still 70 and nowhere near lvl 80 update 
large houses tend to go above 50millions gil, dont be afraid to go nutty
oh how did you avoid auto-demolish? nice
Then you could conceivably add like another idk 20mil due to circumstances and desirability of plot
Sht changed i lag now in limsa super crowdedd
Lmao
Like wowie quarantine really brought back so many
so you just logged on to prevent the house auto-demolish? š¤
how did you avoid auto-demolish?
I just came back because it ssid i had like 4 days or else my house and fc house will be demolished and then was like oo more stuff to do lol!
Itās been disabled for like half a year Viel
So not im stuck here cause it's fun
it was disabled since march
but last 70 cap is more than a year ago š
And for FC houses the timer resets if any member of the FC enters
stormblood
I don't know man I'll have to ask my husband he knows more about this stuff 
Well kind of i Don't know he said since I'm leader be good to sell the fc house
so i was like ok then he made me download the amino app and then the amino person sent me to reddit which is such a weird website
I tried to sell on reddit place for gil like 20min ago and my post got taken down i don't know how this works :( idk what to saw or do im almost 57 now haha I'm getting old but i always been a game junkie since the 1990s

Ah yeah thatās not permitted on r/FFXIV
Uh but thereās surely a subreddit for house selling
Yeah i found this they told me this: r/ffxivhousingmarket
So i copy paste and found
However youāre probably best served by using the party finder to advertise
But first time i tried they delete!
And I'll try don't think i ecer used party finder ever. Me and my husband always been loners on ff14 but we enjoyed the game and the story. Well i enkoye the story he not so much he sleeps when I'm in cutscenes haha
Yeah
could also just join their discord
In the subreddit rules there
since that's one of the sticky posts
and try selling thru the discord rather than the subreddit, if that's easier for you

It says post titles must contain your server and the plot number of the house
Which may have been why it was deleted
Like this?
Is it grey for good or grey for taken down? I don't know. But i tried to copy the others below but i think added too much
O wsit i think greyed because i clicked it hahahaha i saw that when i clicked a different and backed out
I think i did it
I'll go try the party finder now too
How much would an FC go for?
I feel like you could probably charge as much as 100mil tbh
This is for a large house mind you
hmm looks like the title is ok? maybe a bit too much [Server][Buy-FC or Buy-Relo / Sell-FC or Sell-Relo][Nation] (and if you're selling:)[Plot#] is what they have listed in the side bar for appropriate titles
100mil? If i got that much I'd be rich for life haha!
Right mine is currently in a small, the price isn't relevant, I don't want to just abandon land and stuff.
but to fix it looks like it would be [Diabolos] [Sell-FC] [Shirogane] [Large] [Plot-33]
I'll be back in a few thank you all for responding I'll ask more questions when back i have some morning chores to do before i wake my husband up for his meds. This old man will sleep a whole day if don't wake him haha! And thank you @twilit arch i will use that
Appreciations to all!
And nice to meet all
np, hopefully you can sell your fc easily
for macro's how do i type letters and numbers that are inside a square?
Those are special Unicode characters which FFXIV displays as certain icons
Thereās a post somewhere containing them all, hang on
there isnt a new neir for this patch? thought there was. just finished the quest line
im probably wrong
aw
wanna do the savage runs so should i invest into the MB weapon or nah
you should ideally
unless you can do emerald ex as emerald weapons are better than the mb weapons
Can you augment the emerald ex weapon?
What's the cooldown of cordials?
nope llauqs
so was in limsa, and there was a guy by the aetheryte playing a violin. is that a bard thing?
Yes
When you unlock the Bard job, you gain access to Performance, where you can play actual instruments in-game
is it free form? I would have expected it just let you preform pre defined things, but one he played was from zelda I'm pretty sure
Freeform
Playing copyrighted stuff is technically against the tos, but in reality nobody cares
There are also mods that let you play .midi files and essentially autoplay entiure songs
ah
you get an actual keyboard
oh hm. well that's cool. Now I wish I knew anything about music, would be fun to play something
lol
this reminds me of the shawzin in wf

how long does it usually take to receive the code after buying the game on pc?
I got it pretty much right away
possible it took up to a minute, I'm not sure. no more.
Yeah, just go make a coffee and come back to refresh the page
its been almost 30 minutes and still no email 
i just hope you guys are right and i do get it
no conformation, nothing? do you still have the page open where you bought it for any info?
i got this and continued to wait
huh. "being processed by our team" makes me think maybe a human review of the purchase for whatever reason, as a wild guess.
Is this on steam
It took me 5 minutes after the order was processed
Buying from SE store
no its on the SE store
Maybe 5 seconds...
Are you checking
The correct email?
Also itās an order confirmation
Which is basically a receipt
Did you get the order confirmation email?
You should be able to download and play without it
nothinh
But in the email there is the link to activate the code
this is pain ;-;
Log into mogstation again
could be a system issue, wrong email, or something to do with where kenny's from/method of payment I guess
what do i need to see
Let's go, I got an unfinished pretorium party at gaius
Check your account email
Also check if they detracted the money or not
Payment history
Anything
Just see if everything is there
Itāll also show you which expansions youāve purchased/not
I think when I converted from free trial to full game
I logged into mogstation
Clicked hyperlink from there to upgrade to full game
And after providing payment info I just had to click the launcher to automatically download the rest of the files
Didnāt need to do anything else
Or even look at the confirmation email
I didnāt have to āactivateā or enter a code or anything
This was about 1 month ago

i checked my card and they did took my money
Well good luck š
dont suppose anyone would know the current zodiac bonus window dungeon?
pain
Thereās always the SE support center
Maybe check your loadstone account to see if it's active or not
Changes every 2 hours and people donāt really track it anymore since the best duties to spam are generally Tam Tara normal and Ifrit normal
Hopefully itās something simple/stupid you overlooked and not an actually problem
it should be active since i play on ps4
yeah i know, just hoped there'd be someone passing by who also happens to be farming them, haha
I once called IT for help and the problem was because I was using the wrong email
I brought mine thru psn
Have there been any macros made for guaranteed 3rd tier collectability on 80 crafts?
when the next alliance raid comes, its loot will have ilevel of the not aug revelation gears ye?
what's weird is that my SE store shows this even tho i just purchased the complete edition

what's prefered world benefit?
do i need to clear the new trial 10 times in savage to get the weapon?
i guess i'll wait for a few more hours
but just in case how do i contact support?
double exp
until level 70
and i think you get 15 free days if you reach level 30
not sure bout that one
You either need to get lucky in Emerald Weapon EX or complete E12S and get lucky or complete E12N for 10 weeks and also have 1000 of the new tomestones to get a weapon.
The Emerald Weapon weapons are different from the Eden weapons though.
Is he talking about blade of lost antiquity?
I thought that's guaranteed drop from E12N?
@gentle grail do you mean extreme trial?
EX trial weapon is "get lucky, or run it enough times to get enough totems to buy it"
515 weapon
and i need 1k totems o-o??
10
o so ye cool
preferred world is bonus exp till lv 70 and bonus 15 days playtime?
You need 1k tomestones plus 10 of the weapon tokens from E12N if you want the Eden weapon.
how difficult is the new ex trial haha
The EX weapon is 10 totems for a weapon.
anything is difficulty first...
Compared to the other EXs this expansion its up there
you gotta try it
Probably one of the harder ones
It's much harder than Byakko EX
aa alrighty
any other way to gear myself up to be able to hit the minimum or above ilvl for 3rd tier of savage raids?
currently gear is sitting at ilvl 490 all and weapon ilvl 500
Buy HQ crafted or just do Eden Normal/buy tomestone gear.
my game just won't download
Along with getting whatever weeklu loot from savage floors
cool cool, thanks!

Hello again all! How do i make a party finder to try and sell my house for gil? @twilit arch @jade quartz @finite topaz
It looks so confusing it seems for dungeons only, i do not know
Just put what you're selling in the comment section
What crafting set comes between white scrip set and aesthetes? I thought it was facet
shit
i already did
am i looking at the wrong thing?
facet crafting gear is ilvl 460
white scrip is 500
Ilvl doesn't matter for crafting gear
Do i put it on: data center, world, private? And do i leave the check in boxes on the right alone?or anything i got to click in?
World
Facet is better because you can meld it
Ahhh completely missed that
Okay thank you
Im using white scrip set right now and i cant even come close to HQing facet unfortunately
What is the difference between world and data center party finder?
Ones for your server
The others for all servers in the data center
So I'm on light data center twintania server
Oh okay thank you kat
So world only recruits people from twintania for me
Ooo okay!
But data center would recruit from zodiark etc. As well
In general, unless you want to start a map, fate or hunt party, (which recruit on world only by default) don't limit recruitment
For selling your house as Yem wants you ought to limit
Since itās only available to people on your world
Yeah i saw haha forgot to check the box at first and was like noooo not all worlds! Now i got it :)
For ilevel 130 gear should I just stick the the stuff you can get with Poetics? There seems to be a large variety of ilevel 130 stuff, is it worth getting something other than Augmented Ironworks whatever?
My grandkids call me yem haha love when people call me yem, sounds hip
I made the party finder thank you
Is there anywayd to extend the timer says 60minutes? Or no? Have to remake every 60min?
are wondrous tails the only way to get VII/VIII crafting materia?
or ishgard scrips
thank you, that makes things a bit easier
@elfin kelp Augmented ironworks are level 50 and you wouldn't need to switch gear till like level 55
Unless you can wear a higher ilvl just stick to it

@deft oar no you can't extend but you don't have to redo everything
If you end it before timer runs out and start recruitment again the details should be there
can i still receive the rewards even if i died the whole time inside a CE?
Yup
If youre in a party you get the full reward
Solo its gonna be heavily reduced tho
rewards work like FATEs do, just gotta contribute some vague degree
as a WHM that could be casting Medica2 and Assize once
@glass oxide oh okay thank you!
Are combat stats materia necessary for anything besides current savage tier raiding ?
no
I mean at max level it never hurts to use it even if you aren't raiding
^
but not necessary unless you're into Savage or Extreme content
Pretty much if you have it lying around you could totally use it but otherwise don't worry much about it
I see, I never used any materia and was wondering if I could just sell them all
