[fluid tangle]

I also don't plan on doing current savage/extreme anytime soon

[raven sage]

I do recommend transmuting the combat materia to try and get crafting/gathering materia though if they sell better on your server

[fluid tangle]

Huh, I did not know you could do that

I am currently leveling some crafters and miners, I know that materia are way more impactful in those classes

That's also the reason I'm thinking on selling them, leveling those classes has been rough on my gil

[raven sage]

yeah if you want to go that route then just make sure you've done the quest "Marvelously Mutable Materia" and then mutamix will transmute materia for you

[fluid tangle]

Nice, ty !

[faint flare]

You're way overgeared

So

[green grail]

no cause you're wasting a ton of gil for gear that won't be of any use to you

[faint flare]

You dont gear for your level, you gear for your story level

Random fc invites

[fresh lodge]

I think you can put yourself as busy

[deft oar]

Oh how

[fresh lodge]

/busy?

[deft oar]

One second please i will try now

Okay thank you Meara

[manic flare]

do u guys recommend having macros that explains boss mechanics for the common bosses that many newcomers have problems with?

[patent citrus]

example?

[manic flare]

for example, the first boss of qarn, first and third bosses of dzemael, first boss of aurum, last boss of great gubal,

[little swift]

Not a huge necessity

[open ember]

No.... Just explain them in chat

[patent citrus]

i never needed to hehe

[open ember]

You don't need a macro for that

[patent citrus]

they are all fast learner

at least the one I met..

[manic flare]

my problem was that my first class was arcanist/summoner and i was looking at my hotbars 90% of the time since it was hard for me get used to the class as well as the movement, so i missed out on many of the visual boss tells

[patent citrus]

usually died once and they just started copying what i do lol

[steep vine]

So I have FFXIV and got the code for shadowbringers off steam. It clearly states it’s in my library. But when I log onto mogstation. It’s claiming I don’t have it. What do I do?

[fresh lodge]

Go onto mogstation and enter the expansion code there

Where did you buy the base game?

[alpine shadow]

steam

[steep vine]

Steam also

[alpine shadow]

you need to redeem the key

should be an "enter expansion key" button somewhere

yellow

and you can get the key from here https://img.thaun.dev/ryrhj.png

something like that

[steep vine]

Ok, I’ve sorted it 🙂 thankyou

[alpine shadow]

👍

[cinder maple]

I have a fucking problem

I think Error 24202 took my money

Cause when I got the renewal to work i still only have 30 days and I lost more money

[open coral]

Have you contacted customer support?

[alpine shadow]

you registered a sub before using the 30 days youve had?

[cinder maple]

No I didn’t

[alpine shadow]

Cause when I got the renewal to work i still only have

[cinder maple]

I paid twice and only got 30 days

By accident I paid twice

And I only got 30 days

[alpine shadow]

oh, so you got charged twice?

[fresh lodge]

Are there 2 transactions on your bank statement?

[alpine shadow]

there should be 1 euro for the first transaction, and then the sub.

[cinder maple]

No there aren’t any transactions

The money just disappeared

[alpine shadow]

bank does not have a log?

[cinder maple]

I had 60$ and 22.99 is just gone

It has a log but it doesn’t show anything

It’s not saying where this money went

[alpine shadow]

can you also check https://secure.square-enix.com/account/app/svc/ffxivshopusagedetails ?

[fresh lodge]

Banks generally don't take money out without some kind of record

[cinder maple]

I fucking checked I only have 30 days

The error took my money

[alpine shadow]

no, check the payment history for square enix

is what im asking

on that link

[cinder maple]

Only one payment

[alpine shadow]

https://img.thaun.dev/mst7g.png

like this

[cinder maple]

That’s what I’m saying the error took my money

[fresh lodge]

Ok so let me get this straight

[open coral]

If you think that's what actually happened, then you need to contact SE customer support.

[fresh lodge]

On the SE site there is only 1 transaction?

[cinder maple]

Yes

[fresh lodge]

On your bank statement, how many transactions are there?

[open coral]

^ this, really.

Like if you go to online banking right this minute.

[cinder maple]

One 22.99 and 9 1.77

But

[fresh lodge]

Uhhhhhh

[alpine shadow]

those are 9 attempts

[fresh lodge]

Ok how many from SE?

[alpine shadow]

iirc those are refunded after some time

[cinder maple]

My bank says 60.31 closing balance and 15.85 available balance

[alpine shadow]

aka. all 1.77 charges are test charges

but that one 22.99

[fresh lodge]

Also what currency?

[cinder maple]

NZD

[bold summit]

I tried logging in this morning and it said my password was wrong, and I got locked out, when I clearly knew my password, I play this game on a daily basis. And when I tried to reset my password my email says that its not associated to an account?? I contacted support but does anyone know what it could be? I've used the same account since like 2014

[fresh lodge]

Oh

Yeah your currency is fucked

[cinder maple]

Are you kidding me

[alpine shadow]

!faq subprice

[zinc orbit]

Subscription Prices

[cinder maple]

Did I actually lose money

[fresh lodge]

No

Contact support

[worthy basin]

can i copy paste a coordinates and show it on my map? (like a pin/red flag).

[fresh lodge]

Nobody here can help you

[alpine shadow]

13 dollar to nzd is 18 nzd

soo, se might be on the wrong currency yeah

[open coral]

You can flag a point on your map and put it in chat, yes.

[alpine shadow]

or

that might be your bank that is on the wrong currency

[fresh lodge]

But the $1.77 charges aren't actually taken out of your account

[open coral]

Just type <pos> to flag your current position

[marble dome]

@bold summit you might have gotten hacked

[fresh lodge]

They're on hold

[worthy basin]

how about the reverse of that

[cinder maple]

But even with that it should be 21.39

[open coral]

What do you mean?

[cinder maple]

Not 15.85

[alpine shadow]

?

[worthy basin]

i already have the coordinates and i want to pin that on my map. for example this The Rak'tika Greatwood ( 20.5 , 12.1 ) Z: -0.1

[cinder maple]

OH WAIT SHIT THERES A PENDING NSO PAYMENT HOLD ON

[fresh lodge]

...

[patent citrus]

yeah it's all pending payment

[cinder maple]

Ah

[patent citrus]

until you got your product

[cinder maple]

.... fuck

[patent citrus]

usually

[cinder maple]

.... I’m so sorry

[marble dome]

@worthy basin right click the point on your map

[fresh lodge]

Yeeeeah, you weren't scanned lol

[cinder maple]

I wasted your time lol that is the right amont

[open coral]

Oh, yeah. You can do that too. I'm not sure how to do it on kbm, but on controller just put your cursor over the spot on your map and hit L1 + R1 at the same time.

[fresh lodge]

All good

[little swift]

Ctrl right click is the kbm command to drop a flag

Shift right click removes it

[cinder maple]

So how long does it take for the temp payments to refund?

[open coral]

Usually pretty quick

[fresh lodge]

A day or 2

[worthy basin]

okay thanks!

[cinder maple]

.... oh

[patent citrus]

according to my bank 7 days 🤔

but that's probably the worst case lol

[cinder maple]

So no cheesy garlic bread for me for a while

.... yaaaaaay

[open coral]

Mine usually refunds test payments within 24 hours.

[patent citrus]

not sure about your bank haha

[open coral]

I guess it's bank-dependent

[alpine shadow]

easy fix, don't be poor.

though, idk why you tried 9 times.

unless you were not redirected correctly after the first payment?

[cinder maple]

I got an error multiple times

I didn’t know it made temp payments

[patent citrus]

in all type of online payment like this, don't do that haha

i mean refreshing multiple times

[worthy basin]

What if I buy a 90 days sub, then how can i pay for my retainers?

[alpine shadow]

you pay the retainer fee again?

aka, you go to mogstation retainer service and pay

[marble dome]

2.99 per retainer per 30 days

[open coral]

If you buy a 90 day sub and retainers, it charges you for 3 months of retainer service x number of retainers at the same time as your sub renewal.

At least, that's how it works if you have auto payment set up

[shell hazel]

Lol never knew i had to put the crystal into my Slot to become a Dragoon haha learned that just now

[open coral]

Yes. For all jobs level 30+, you need to have the Soul Crystal equipped for that job. It can help to save your gear set with the crystal once you get it so that you don't forget.

[manic flare]

i thought retainers were 1.99?

[gritty oracle]

Do gathering collactables that are on a timer give increased scrips compared to non-timed ones?

[alpine shadow]

"1.40 € for 30 days." it says for me

[scarlet arrow]

@shell hazel I can think of exactly one situation that calls for unequipping a job crystal once you have it

[little swift]

Its updated in the gathering doc @leaden ginkgo in #doh-dol-lounge

[teal bone]

who

is the santa of ff14

[open coral]

||Godbert||

[leaden ginkgo]

When doing MSQ roulette, I assume 1 tank does all the trash & boss pulls?

[open coral]

Typically, yes. Only one tank is really necessary for MSQ instances due to gear.

The off tank is basically just a really durable dps.

[timid geyser]

the off tank is only here incase the mt or healers are shit lol

[wintry chasm]

Honestly the closest you'll get is the Ishgardian captain from the story of how the celebrations started.

[manic flare]

why do people say you can really only make money as crafter once they reach level 80. what happens at level 80?

[teal bone]

you get access to crafting recipes for on level content

which sells for a lot

[faint flare]

You get access to current content itens

[gleaming mist]

you get access to items that people actively want

[faint flare]

Like current potions and food raiders want

[teal bone]

nobody wants your doo doo stain level 44 tank gear

[wintry chasm]

Not like those people are right anyway

[teal bone]

everyone wants raid food and bis crafted on patch day

[wintry chasm]

You can make money easily before 80

[gleaming mist]

there are some lucrative markets before 80

[manic flare]

@faint flare the moonfaire halter sells for alot on MB and i can craft those at level 50

[faint flare]

Thats glamour

Glamour usually works well but varies

[manic flare]

oh you mean, DoM and DoW gear

that people want

is that what sells the best/most often?

[timid geyser]

Yeah, like any cosmetic from the expert recipes

[faint flare]

And consumables

[manic flare]

@faint flare so alchemy is a good class to make money?

since they make the potions

[faint flare]

Its decent

[manic flare]

and culinarian

damn it, i leveled the wrong class

my weaver is 72

should have done alchemy instead

[timid geyser]

Weaver craft some glams tho

Like, there's the southern seas shirt that I absolutely need for my glam and I can't find it bellow 380k

[worthy basin]

carpenter is good for furnishing house stuff, and that's some good money too.

[pulsar hollow]

Is there sth like a strongest dps / healer / tank tierlist?

[wintry chasm]

You should have leveled them all otherwise you're going to have to spend loads on materials and that really eats into your profits @manic flare

[faint flare]

No because tier lists are fucking stupid

[wintry chasm]

^

[faint flare]

!faq meta

[zinc orbit]

How FFXIV's Meta Works

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

[timid geyser]

Play wha you like

[pulsar hollow]

Alright, I decided to play Summoner and Astro.. hope Ill like them lmao

[timid geyser]

There's always that guy who will come and scream "THE CLASS I MAIN IS BETTER THAN ANY OTHER"

Don't listen to them, it depends on what you want

[faint flare]

Then everyone shits on bard then the 5 BRD mains come in and trash everyone else

[pulsar hollow]

So later on I wont get blamed by anyone in raids, no matter what class Ill play?

[faint flare]

No

[timid geyser]

if u get blamed on raids thats because u suck, not because of your class

[pulsar hollow]

Okay good, bad experience with other mmorpgs where some classes were trash and hated

[faint flare]

Only shit players blame the job

[timid geyser]

it aint wow here

[wintry chasm]

You'll only get blamed for fucking up

[faint flare]

Balance Actually exists here

Unlike other mmos

[timid geyser]

yeah lol

[teal bone]

sniffs in wow

[pulsar hollow]

ye at least in one game lmao

[teal bone]

if you play resto druid in wow you might as well not play the game i'll be honest

[pulsar hollow]

Are cs pets faster than the free Chocobo?

[teal bone]

all mounts have same speed

only thing that changes is story progression

[faint flare]

Nothing on the cash shop gives you an advantage

[wintry chasm]

well

[pulsar hollow]

Ight, the games getting better and better kekw

[teal bone]

ie do certain missions for mount speed

on land anyways

[wintry chasm]

The SDS Fenrir gets the main story progression speed boost automatically at the start so it's faster than all the other mounts until you unlock the main story progression speed boosts for the other mounts

[teal bone]

yes yes yes we all know there's technically a way to get faster but it's only temporary

fuck

i'm not a fast typer

[worthy basin]

but ground speed mounts doesn't matter anymore if you can fly

[timid geyser]

Yeah, keep yer chocobo

[worthy basin]

so cash shop mounts are more like for throwing money at SE

[wintry chasm]

also at that point the ground speeds will even out anyway

[teal bone]

ya'll ever wonder if Yagoo has a drinking problem because he makes so much money but his dream of creating an honest to god idol group was hopelessly crushed?

[manic flare]

what's wrong with bard

[teal bone]

nothing?

[worthy basin]

I leveled up my bard to 30 just to play instruments

[manic flare]

im sad that the cello instrument uses the same animation as the violin

that's the saddest part about bard

[teal bone]

honestly, if i didn't play mch, i'd play bard, because it has all the benefits of mch with none of the high expectations for damage

[manic flare]

oh bard has low dps?

[teal bone]

i mean, compared to machinist yes

[wintry chasm]

"low"

[teal bone]

but it makes up for it with party buffs

boy howdy does 1% not sound like alot until you look at a parse and see your sam doing 17k instead of 15k

[gleaming mist]

I’m not an expert at math but 15 x 1.01 isn’t 17k

[teal bone]

i small brained that, that's 10%

[wintry chasm]

much smooth

[teal bone]

still, 1% is better than nothing, and it's a near constant buff, with a whole bunch of other useful tools

and 1% damage buff to 7 people makes up for the loss in damage compared to mch

[wintry chasm]

Yeah

Assuming everyone in your party does 15k

that buff adds an extra 1.2k

[teal bone]

what's the class prio for dancer?

it's sam>mch>mnk>others right?

[wintry chasm]

Really it's "whoever is doing more DPS"

[teal bone]

well yes, but dnc damage is based on partner weaponskill casts isn't it? and sam has a shit ton of those in quick succesion

i knew sam was first

wait

does heat blast not count as a weapon skill?

it does, why is mch so far down on that list?

[gleaming mist]

less damage, doesn’t abuse buffs as well as other jobs

[teal bone]

i'd love to play sam or dragoon, but i'm more comfy not caring about 1/3 of boss mechanics because i can attack and move at the same time from any distance

[gleaming mist]

okay

[teal bone]

between you and me, i think dragoon is the coolest class, but i feel like it's hard to nail down at 80

[scarlet arrow]

lol the kupo bot message just happens on a timer, not in response to anyone 😛

[robust crow]

what's the drop rate on the zurvanite carapace fragments?

the zurvan weapons are going for like 1-2m on my server

i know zurvan isn't that hard

so the price must be stabilizing

[tropic frigate]

If you're lvl 70+, is there any gain in doing the daily leveling duty roullete? Or is the exp gain too little at those levels?

[robust crow]

leveling roulette is worth it at all levels

[scarlet arrow]

^

[robust crow]

you should be doing it every day

[tropic frigate]

ok

[robust crow]

it's one of the most efficient leveling options

leveling, MSQ, and alliance roulettes are pretty much the 3 most efficient ones

[tropic frigate]

Yeah I've been doing msq and alliance

[scarlet arrow]

the experience you get from the roulette scales inversely from the level of the dungeon you get (i.e. getting a lower-level dungoen in the roulette means the roulette bonus itself is higher)

[tropic frigate]

The leveling however didn't seem much

[robust crow]

you can additionally do frontline, normal raid, and trials roulettes too for a little bit more exp

if you are 70 or higher, pixie tribe dailies are also significant exp

[scarlet arrow]

also you're helping sprout DPS get faster queue times ^_^

[tropic frigate]

lol alright

[wheat wasp]

How do you sort inventory on PS4

[eager widget]

Square should pop open the dropdown menu if you’re highlighting an item

then Sort will be at the bottom of that

[drifting sparrow]

is there a way to access the foundation without finishing the MSQ because i am seriously at my limit with these run around speak run around speak wait in que for 30 mins quests

[eager widget]

Foundation is locked behind MSQ, so unfortunately you gotta power through those quests

[drifting sparrow]

i wanna smash my head against a wall

[agile laurel]

if it's any consolation whatsoever

it used to be worse

[wispy parcel]

To understand whats going on in Heavensward you have to pay attention to the patch quests

[agile laurel]

yeah HW basically leads on directly from the final ARR patch quests

[wispy parcel]

Yea they cut most of the filler, all thats left now is the stuff you need to know

[leaden ginkgo]

For Gunbreaker, Savage Claw and Wicked Talon are used exclusively once every time you use Gnashing Claw, right?

[twilit karma]

Yes, the whole thing is a separate, stronger 1-2-3 combo that costs a charge to get started via Gnashing Fang

And at 70 will also trigger an ogcd between each one as well via the Continuation skill

[agile laurel]

basically gnashing fang should be used on cooldown, followed immediately by Savage Claw and Wicked Talon

at level 70+, use Continuation after each 1 of the 3 actions

[tidal yarrow]

how much time before we won't be able to exchange the phantasmagoria we have?

[pulsar hollow]

Could someone make a short summary for me about what exactly that summary is what one is supposed to do daily, please? (What is it, how do I do it, what do I get, ...)

[remote lintel]

what do you mean what youre supposed to do daily

you dont have to do any dailies if you dont want to

[pulsar hollow]

I just started the game a day ago and have no idea what it is, but Ive heard it several times already that theyre really good and worth to do

So itd be kinda dumb not to do them ig

[remote lintel]

theres a bunch of kinds of dailies

if you just started a day ago you probably don't even have access to them

dont worry about it

[pulsar hollow]

Im ~35 rn

[twilit karma]

Next expac, you got some time haha

[remote lintel]

theres leveling roulette for combat exp, grand company turn ins for crafter exp, beast tribe quests for combat exp, etc

those are all dailies

[pulsar hollow]

where do I pick them up?

[remote lintel]

leveling roulette is in the duty finder, for gc turn ins you need to be sergeant 2nd class, for beast tribes you need to unlock the respective tribe

if you dont need exp then you dont need to do them

[patent citrus]

what's the reason using raw intuition over nascent flash?

beside maybe if it's lower level dungeon

[faint flare]

Wuen yhe buster would kill you

[patent citrus]

i see

[pulsar hollow]

thx a lot Cerb

[patent citrus]

so this absorb still means you still got hit

[little swift]

Its not an absorb

Its just mitigation

Like heart of stone or vengeance

[faint flare]

Absorb is just lifesteal

Raw intuition mitigates damage, nascent heals you

[patent citrus]

oh right it's damage dealt

[faint flare]

Nascent healing is meaningless if you die

[patent citrus]

i misread, my bad

but most of the time at lv 80ish stuff, you use nascent flash right?

[pulsar hollow]

Would you guys recommend me to play SUM or BLM? I like both and cant really decide. How its looking dmg wise, fun wise, endgame wise?

[patent citrus]

and just use raw intuition only vs tankbuster

[pulsar hollow]

Ive played a SUM til 35 so far and am kinda dissapointed by my dmg output

[patent citrus]

I prefer SMN cause books! and pet!

[pulsar hollow]

Lmao

[remote lintel]

all classes do fine damage

and both of those are in the top 2 dps anyway

[patent citrus]

well you just lv 35 😂

too early to tell

[pulsar hollow]

ye but my premate is lv 35 templar and doing as much dmg

so Im kinda.. meh

Feeling a bit useless here

[remote lintel]

are you sure youre not undergeared

[pulsar hollow]

yeah

[little swift]

!faq nfvsri

[zinc orbit]

Nascent Flash vs Raw Intuition

See the Link for the math and explanations on the different cases. Make a copy if you want to fool around with the incoming damage values.

Raw Intuition covers 171k damage in this example.
That's worth a Shiva auto-attack and a Ramuh tank buster in total. This is to give Raw Intuition at least two hits worth of damage to mitigate.

[pulsar hollow]

equal gear

[little swift]

@patent citrus

[remote lintel]

i mean youre still both low lvl

play whichever one you like better

personally like blm better

because i never grasped smn's 2 minute rotation

[patent citrus]

what does it mean worst for nascent flash?

[little swift]

Worst case scenario

[pulsar hollow]

is it tough to learn as a FFXIV beginner?

I feel like BLM is more beginner friendly

[little swift]

Where you spend your 3 gcds without using gauge for hp @patent citrus

Literally a basic single target combos worth

[remote lintel]

blm is one of the harder classes to level because its combo changes frequently

!faq blmleveling

[zinc orbit]

THM/BLM leveling rotations

[patent citrus]

blm players is harder to deal with as a healer...

[remote lintel]

they shouldnt be unless theyre bad

[patent citrus]

the positioning is tough? maybe.. just from my anecdotal experience

[robust crow]

BLM is the opposite of beginner friendly lol

[pulsar hollow]

I guess Ill just stick to SUM then and maybe check BLM later on

[robust crow]

things in low level dungeons often die before you can get your casts off

[pulsar hollow]

Im 35 tho and my MSQ is just 22.. Im kinda overlvled

[patent citrus]

when it's 1 combo worth, does it mean with storm path or storm eye?

[pulsar hollow]

Is it normal to be overlvled?

[robust crow]

yes

[remote lintel]

yes

[hardy coral]

@.kyu some of your hits might be the same as your friend but gotta factor in DoT damage, summon damage etc

[pulsar hollow]

damn

[remote lintel]

also blm's combos themselves are easy

[robust crow]

you're meant to be able to level several classes to keep up with MSQ

[remote lintel]

the only hard thing about it is learning to move

[robust crow]

playing BLM is easy

[patent citrus]

if that's your mindset, you going to switch between those 2 a lot lol

[robust crow]

playing BLM well is hard

[remote lintel]

the same could be said for smn

[robust crow]

they're difficult to optimize

[pulsar hollow]

Are 2 enough? Im planning on doing SUM til 50 and then get an Astrologist and level both at once with MSQ

[patent citrus]

when you think you win with BLM, and somehow you met a SMN who deal more dmg than you and will switch to SMN 😂

[pulsar hollow]

Or should I get a 2nd already?

[remote lintel]

up to you

[patent citrus]

back and forth

[little swift]

Path healing isn't part of the equation here. This is purely just what flash gives you

[pulsar hollow]

Is Astro a good healer tho? Or should I consider doing a Scholar since Im SUM already? Or even White Mage?

[faint flare]

They're all good

[pulsar hollow]

(noob questions, ik) I know all are the best but still

Looking for some of your opinions

[patent citrus]

my opinion, very busy -_-

a lot of button pressing, that's for sure

[remote lintel]

SCH is prob one of the harder healers to grasp

since its not reactive

[robust crow]

scholar comes bundled with summoner though

so you can literally just press a button and go try out scholar for a bit

white mage is the most beginner friendly healer

[remote lintel]

white mage is the beginner healing class but you can start with whatever you want

[fierce cobalt]

Astro if you wanna be busy, white mage if you want a lot of oh shit panic options, scholar I can't really comment

[remote lintel]

i started with ast and now i main it

[pulsar hollow]

Is Astro stressful to play?

[remote lintel]

thats not really true about white mage incarn

no

[pulsar hollow]

Astro looks sick, but idk how his playstyle is

[robust crow]

it's busy

[remote lintel]

you have cards in addition to healing

[robust crow]

astro is likely the busiest healer

[remote lintel]

you weave them

they give dmg buffs to party members

[little swift]

Should never treat your cds as oh shit panic buttons @fierce cobalt use them regularly

Thats a bad habit too commit to otherwise

[robust crow]

white mage is just the most straightforward healer

x person is low health, press Y button to heal

z people are low health, press A button to heal all of them

[fierce cobalt]

Was this just for endgame? I feel whm I always have benediction ready for emergency

[little swift]

Its also disingenuous to call healers reactive/proactive types. All the healers have tools to both react and be proactive

[remote lintel]

dont save bene

[pulsar hollow]

Is Astro a bad idea as a beginner since its pretty busy?

[little swift]

Use it regularly

[remote lintel]

abuse benediction

[robust crow]

nothing is a "bad idea" as a beginner

[remote lintel]

no kyu

[robust crow]

just try them out

[remote lintel]

ast was my first healer

[little swift]

3 minute cd in a dungeon means you can use it minimum 3 times a dungeon

Has nothing to do with endgamr

[robust crow]

you should be using bene for trash packs

[little swift]

Just a good habit overall to use it

[robust crow]

you can weave bene to heal your tank and lose no DPS

[drifting sparrow]

being in a different realm doesnt affect que times right?

[remote lintel]

no black

[little swift]

Just like how tanks shouldn't save their invulns

[remote lintel]

also ast has 2 essential dignities which is like a weaker bene so

[fierce cobalt]

Alright consider me corrected

[pulsar hollow]

bene?

[remote lintel]

!action benediction

[robust crow]

it's a level 50 WHM spell

[zinc orbit]

**Benediction** : lvl 50 WHM (180.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Restores all of a target's HP.

Powered by XIVAPI

[pulsar hollow]

Im not into the terminology yet ^^

ah ty

[hollow wraith]

Bene has a bit of a delay to it that makes it... not ideal for actual emergencies lol

[robust crow]

it's just a button that heals your target to full HP

it's often comboed with dark knight invulnerability

or GNB invuln

but you don't need to save it just for that

[pulsar hollow]

I guess Ill just go for Astro then

tyty

[robust crow]

here's a short astro tip

the blue greenish outline means it's a melee/tank card

[dense sigil]

how do i obtain the ilvl 120 gear at 50?

[patent citrus]

nothing is difficult for you dude, try it haha

[dense sigil]

someone told me about it or something

[little swift]

Mor dhona @dense sigil

[patent citrus]

play what you like

[robust crow]

the purple reddish outline means it's a ranged/healer card

[remote lintel]

trade poetics for it

[dense sigil]

is it the augmented stuff

[remote lintel]

yes

[robust crow]

that's something that wasn't obvious to me at first

[remote lintel]

ironworks

[dense sigil]

ahh ok ive got the robe

cool

ty

[pulsar hollow]

aight, thanks @robust crow

[remote lintel]

weskalber does good leveling guides on youtube

[dense sigil]

should i level whm to 80 and then think about switching to another class

[robust crow]

doesn't matter

[dense sigil]

or leveling one*

[remote lintel]

switch whenever you want

[robust crow]

as long as you stay ahead of your MSQ

try as many classes as you want

[dense sigil]

i heard theres an xp bonus compared to ur highest level class?

[robust crow]

yes it's called the armoury bonus

[dense sigil]

so if i max out whm then switch would i levvel up faster

[robust crow]

as long as your other classes are lower level than your highest class

you'll get the armoury bonus

[remote lintel]

no

it doesnt matter if your class is max level

[pulsar hollow]

Do I keep this buff for other classes when my 1st class reaches 70?

[robust crow]

yes kyu

[remote lintel]

yes kyu

[robust crow]

you keep that for 90 days after your character was created

[dense sigil]

okay, wasnt sure if it increased or not

[robust crow]

and it applies for every single class you have, including crafter/gatherers

[remote lintel]

!faq armouryexp

[zinc orbit]

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ

'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'

As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.

'How much is the bonus experience?'

You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.

[remote lintel]

its +100% from 1 to 69

regardless of what lvl your max class is

[dense sigil]

oh sweet

appreciate ur help ❤️

[pulsar hollow]

Whats the fastest way of leveling a 2nd class if you dont have MSQs?

how long do yall say it takes to get through the lvl 50 quests

between ARR and HW

[remote lintel]

depends how long you play

maybe a day or two

[wind skiff]

Where do i buy the tome crafter materials

[wintry chasm]

Eulmore tomestone vendor under the (other) section

[wind skiff]

my static are offering to make crafted for me if I give them the tome mats

thank you

[cyan fable]

Was thinking of getting my friend who's on a different datacenter a mount from ffxiv store. When I buy from the store, it gives me a gift code and they just put it on the website?

[twilit arch]

when you buy it as a gift, yes it gives you a code

[cyan fable]

even though we're on different datacenter he'll be able to use it?

[twilit arch]

your friend would then use the "enter item code" option mogstation

correct

[cyan fable]

tyty

[shell hazel]

If u switch jobs, u are just relvling that job up on that same toon from lvl 1 correct ?>

[hardy coral]

yes indeed

[remote lintel]

not expac jobs

[hardy coral]

unless it's the expac jobs that start higher

[shell hazel]

cool

[leaden ginkgo]

Hello i need help for palace of the dead i'm actually in floor 61-70 ? 😄

[patent citrus]

so if the new eden normal armor requires 4 lost armor piece

does it mean that i need to run the raid 4 weeks to get them traded?

[little swift]

!faq edenloot

[zinc orbit]

Eden raids normal mode drop table

[remote lintel]

you can get 1 piece per floor

so 4 pieces a week

[little swift]

No just roll it on every floor

[patent citrus]

ooooo

i get it now

ok ty ty

wow nice so i can 1 chest and 2 accesories piece from floor 1?

[remote lintel]

no

you can get 1 of those

[twilit arch]

chest requires 4 tokens

so you either choose to roll on a chest piece on all 4 floors

or you could do 4 accessories/belt, or 2 accessories and 2 helm/gloves/boots

legs also require 4 tokens

[pulsar hollow]

What exactly does that 3x etc mean?

[patent citrus]

run it 3 times 😂

[gloomy ice]

Run each dungeon that many times, as necessary

[pulsar hollow]

AHHH thats dungeons?

Bruh

Sorry, noob here

[gloomy ice]

No worries \o/

[patent citrus]

np, I don't think it's fixed list or is it? 😂

i mean the principle is just run the highest accessible dungeon except 50/60/70

[latent prism]

10 totems for emerald weapon?

[remote lintel]

if youre not hardcore grinding just run all roulettes, beast tribes, highest level dungeon

[gloomy ice]

For weapon exchange, yes.

[pulsar hollow]

At what level can I start with roulettes?

15?

[remote lintel]

16

for below 16 do hunt logs, challenge log, fates

[patent citrus]

ok ty ty, now i understand how the raid loot works 😂

took me time to process

[pulsar hollow]

Where exactly do I see my / accept / start roulettes?

[remote lintel]

in duty finder

[patent citrus]

ehhh

yeah

[pulsar hollow]

Ah alright, found it

tyty

[patent citrus]

I usually just run any duty roulette + frontline per day cause i gotta do available msq/blue quest 😂

[magic wren]

What’s the best way to get gear for leveling an alt?

[fierce cobalt]

Did the patch add new potion tier? I see new food

[magic wren]

I have a lv 60 bard but only ilv 177.

[native umbra]

anyone knows what's this blue triangle thingy marker called?

[remote lintel]

flare marker

[fierce cobalt]

Impreza, Poetics gear

[magic wren]

I don’t want to spend those lol. I was saving them for lv 80

[twilit arch]

dont save poetics

they're handed out like candy

[magic wren]

No?

Ohh

[twilit arch]

and the only thing that poetics buy at lvl 80 is item needed for the shb relic

[fierce cobalt]

You mean 70? You cant trade poetics for 80 except the resistance weapon

[gloomy ice]

Also level 80 doesn't use poetics. They're for 50, 60, and 70.

[remote lintel]

poetics arent used for lvl 80

poetics are catch up currency

[magic wren]

Oh I see I didn’t know that.

Thank you.

[fierce cobalt]

As someone who thought about saving poetics in the past, don't, at least prioritise left side gear and weapon if have u stretch it across a lot of alts

But yeah, is there a new potion tier?

[twilit arch]

yes, we got grade 4 with this patch

[fierce cobalt]

Is 66 strength a lot? How much damage would that translate to? I'm comparing the grade 3 vs 4 and then will evaluate cost

[clever cave]

Its a lot

[patent citrus]

do you think I should get the normal eden armor first? 🤔

that requires me to get 4 armor piece from the 4 levels?

[twilit arch]

depends on what will give you the biggest boost

[patent citrus]

or leg..

[twilit arch]

or what has good stats for your job

[patent citrus]

would 1 glove and 1 head gives more stats than 1 body?

[twilit arch]

if your accessories are super low ilvl, then you should prioritize that

[patent citrus]

all kinda ilvl 500 right now

[twilit arch]

if everything roughly the same, then go for the biggest stat increase/has good substats

[patent citrus]

how do i know which substats can be melded?

without checking the "advance materia melding" skill

[twilit arch]

generally the substat that has the bigger number is the capped substat

[jovial tide]

I'm currently undertaking anima weapon phase 3 i.e. the one where you have to feed it crystal sand; will my progress be lost if I temporarily abandon the quest to do anima for another job?

[twilit arch]

yes, you'd have to start the crystal sand stage over again if you abandon it without having completed it

[jovial tide]

Thanks

[obtuse eagle]

I've just started ffxiv on ps5 with mouse and keyboard, not sure if i've messed up a setting or something, but the mouses scroll seems to be reverse for the camera and scrolling in options screen? is there a setting for these?

[reef knot]

does flight only unlock doing msq?

[remote lintel]

for ARR yes

[reef knot]

o

[obsidian patio]

For the expansion zones it’s a mix of MSQ, specific side quests, and grabbing green currents in the zone

[reef knot]

oo okay thanks

[fervent brook]

anyone found where parkside tree comes from?

[crimson wind]

Can I ask questions about emerald ex here

[obsidian patio]

Might be better in #endgame-lounge

[obsidian patio]

Considering my server still hasn’t seen one on the marketboard at all my assumption is possible submarine voyages

[neon nexus]

Unreal syncs you down to i435, yes?

[obsidian patio]

Yep

[limber walrus]

does anyone know how I can get max quality of the Oddly Specific Paste? (skysung frying pan quest) I have tried looking it up and only found crafting recipes for like the 490 armor/food

[obsidian patio]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vgtU7HFtG87TrJ9U47vnzkFMhSl5HKz7bjJhRXbxaas/preview

Should have macros for them

[limber walrus]

thank you!

[fierce cobalt]

Are the coins from yorha raids outdated due to new ways of getting gear? Or still relevant for something?

[remote lintel]

theyre used to augment

[twilit arch]

You're gonna need them for the cryptstalker augment in 5.5

so unless you're raiding savage, i would hold onto them

[fierce cobalt]

But most likely the bottleneck would the 5.5 raid I imagine

As that would get a 1 per week lock

[twilit arch]

yes they'll be weekly locked

but you need a coin from all three raids

[limber walrus]

@obsidian patio oh I think this one is the 2 star recipes, but I am looking for the 3 star ones! 😄

[still vault]

Hello all! Practically brand new player here (returning after a long time and starting a new character)- any recs of starting again as a particular role? I’m thinking paladin but don’t how difficult tanking in this game is

[remote lintel]

easy

[still vault]

Lol ok so it’s not super mechanic heavy or anything

[remote lintel]

no?

all roles do mechanics

dps is probably the hardest role

[still vault]

Well that’s true lol

Ok cool 🙂

[remote lintel]

but you can start as whatever you want

[still vault]

Yea that’s what I like about the game, being able to swap and level multiple classes

Thank you for the input 🙂

[astral hull]

Anyone else ever get an error when trying to resub? I’ve tried 3 times now and it won’t let me. Idk what to do

[gritty oracle]

I actually recommend starting as a healer or tank because of the lower queue times and overall better survivability in overworld content

[remote lintel]

what error

[astral hull]

It just says error after I put in my credit card stuff

[remote lintel]

what does it say exactly

try a different browser, disable ad/pop up blockers, try using a wifi hotspot from your phone

[astral hull]

Ok I’ll see what I can do

[still vault]

@astral hull I was getting that earlier too, then realized my exp date was put in wrong- I know that’s a dumb response but maybe double check?

I was also getting a “system overload” error earlier, so I just waited a few minutes and tried again

[fierce cobalt]

Do people have a general rule of thumb for using good food + potions outside Savage + ultimates?

[warped nest]

EX: sure
Everything else: really?

[digital elm]

I recently did an ARR S rank with a friend and someone was upset at me for doing it? anyone know what's the big deal about it? They just stood there for a long time as we were fighting it and didn't say anything until we killed it.

[remote lintel]

they probably called out the location and were waiting for other people to get there

and then you came in and killed it

[digital elm]

I didn't see anyone near

When I first got there

Nor any shouts

[remote lintel]

they might have been waiting for them to get there

[digital elm]

And they couldn't sent a tell

[faint flare]

People probably were on the way

[onyx kiln]

what food item would be the best to boost both stats of DoH classes?

[digital elm]

it just spawned and no one was there tho

But still they could've sent a tell before it died

[warped nest]

The expectation is everyone understands the rule of engagement, ie don't pull right away

[remote lintel]

people were probably on their way

[warped nest]

And now you do too

[twilit arch]

given that it was an S rank, they don't just randomly spawn

someone had to actively work to spawn it

[digital elm]

I see

Idk I just feel like instead of just standing there they could've said something beforehand :/

[twilit arch]

so while, yes you're technically within your rights to kill it the moment you saw it, its kind of a shitty feeling for the people who worked on seeing it spawn and announced it to their linkshells/discord for people to come

and yes, they could've and should've said something

since not everyone knows how hunts work

[remote lintel]

just dont do it next time

[digital elm]

ok

[warped nest]

(you sure it is an S? Lvl 50 S rank maybe?)

[remote lintel]

they said ARR S rank

[warped nest]

Ahhh

Missed the ARR part

[digital elm]

Idk tbh it was in ARR

[sacred flame]

What do I do with the weapons I can't use in my inventory?

[remote lintel]

turn them in to your gc, vendor them

[hardy coral]

you can throw in glamour dresser

[sacred flame]

?

[twilit arch]

either vendor (if white quality), desynth (any quality) or turn in for grand company seals (if sergeant second class or higher and green/pink or higher quality)

[hardy coral]

glamour dresser is your fashion closet, accessable at inns in major cities

[twilit arch]

can also put in the glamour dresser if you wanna save it for glamour reasons

[manic flare]

where do i find the dresser in ishgard

[remote lintel]

forgotten knight

[warped nest]

Inn room

[hardy coral]

also could throw them in a retainer

[sacred flame]

Do i need some crafting level upgraded to desynth?

[warped nest]

Oh, another option is equipping your retainers with it, assuming they can

[twilit arch]

yeah, need to be atleast lvl 30 to unlock desynthesis

[sacred flame]

😔

What rank do you need to be to vendor to your gc?

Turn in to your gc*

[remote lintel]

sgt 2nd class

[scenic vale]

any more up to date guides for training doh/dol from 50-80? i stopped mine before heavensward came out and now seems like tons of content is out to level them but not sure which is worth pursuing

[hardy coral]

leves if ya got em

[remote lintel]

#doh-dol-lounge pins

theres ishgard restoration

[gritty oracle]

Which has a better chance of not comsuming mats: quitting a craft, or purposefully breaking it? In case I pressed the wrong macro and it wouldn't complete with 100% HQ

[scenic vale]

which channel is that I can't see it in the list

[remote lintel]

you need the role

[scenic vale]

oh i see

okay thanks i'll take a look at that channel and read up on the ishgard thing

[twilit arch]

failing the craft has a chance of giving mats back, quitting after taking an action does not iirc @gritty oracle

but either way, the chance is low so

[gritty oracle]

thanks!

[outer plank]

and... i think in hw

[twilit arch]

without 5.55 credits, we can't say for certain, but imo its pretty unlikely they've changed from his HW voice actor

and its just a difference in recording tools/etc

covid messing with things ya know

[gilded rune]

Yeah Lyse sounded a bit different too.

[twilit arch]

And yeah ARR Cid and HW+ Cid are two different voice actors

they changed studios with HW so everyone but like Aymeric and Haurchefaunt have new voice actors after that point

so far the only two voice actors that have changed after the heavensward switch, are Yugiri and Matoya, but that's due to both of their voice actresses passing away

[patent citrus]

the ARR Cid voice in praetorium is painful to listen

but I need the exp

[gilded rune]

I can't find anything in the pins about this, but what's the best way to get better gear rn if I'm at 480? Farming the newest dungeon? Sorry i'm new to this still xD

[remote lintel]

!faq gearguide

[zinc orbit]

Gearing up by level

Click on a link below to view the gear guides on consolegamewiki.

Level 50
Level 60
Level 70
Level 80

[patent citrus]

btw so I decided to work on legs/armor from the new eden normal

do you think it's a good idea ?

[obsidian patio]

Matoya’s dungeon for i485, Puppet bunker for 490, allegory for 490/500

[patent citrus]

what gear do people usually go to? or just avoid the one with bad substats?

[twilit arch]

once you get 485 you can do eden's promise and get some accessories (or whatever is lowest ilvl)

[obsidian patio]

I just go for item level for Eden normal

[outer plank]

crafted gear if you can afford it. or have a generous friend

eden 9-12 for your weekly tokens

continue the story to unlock expert roulette

[patent citrus]

how does item level calculated? do legs and armor weigh more than the other piece?

[remote lintel]

the average of all gear slots

[hardy coral]

nope it's true average

[patent citrus]

ah ok ty ty

[outer plank]

it takes averages

[faint flare]

It adds all slots together (weapon counts double, except jobs with off hand like Paladin/non combats) then divide by 13

[warped nest]

It is rounded down

Never up, afaict

[patent citrus]

hmm maybe waist + accessory + head then?

that's 4

i mean if i'm aiming for ilvl that is

[hardy coral]

if you want cheap ilvl yeah

[patent citrus]

although difference probably miniscule

ok tyty

[twilit arch]

keep in mind, head needs 2 tokens

so it'd be 1 accessory for this week if you're gonna do belt and helm as well

[patent citrus]

ah true my bad

[gilded rune]

I see The Puppets' Bunker drops 490 gear, can you farm that or is that a one-time a week thing?

[remote lintel]

you can farm it

[gilded rune]

Nice, thanks.

[manic flare]

@twilit arch what happened to yugiri's voice actor?

[remote lintel]

they changed it

[twilit arch]

her first voice actress for heavensward was murdered

[remote lintel]

thats crazy

[bright badger]

I have areal stupid question

Are there any reliable ways to get the newest crafted gearsets if I don't have the gil or gatherers to actually get it or am I just waiting for the price to drop

[pulsar hollow]

Is that just once daily?

[remote lintel]

yes

[bright badger]

Yep

[tame plinth]

is there a reddit page specifically dedicated to sharing raid info?

if not, do i just post what i want to share on r/ffxiv?

[obsidian patio]

You’re just waiting for it to drop if you can’t make it yourself

[obsidian patio]

Not really? You can just make a thread for it. There’s also #endgame-lounge

[tame plinth]

i already shared what i want to share there

wanted to post it on reddit as well

[twilit arch]

Then yeah just post on the main subreddit

[tame plinth]

okay, ty

[nova umbra]

so... 2/2/2/2 or 4/4? which one's better

[outer plank]

of what?

[nova umbra]

emerald weapon extreme

[outer plank]

oh

[viral hemlock]

4/4 imo

easier for healers to mitigate damage

[nova umbra]

that's what i thought...

and then i see stuff like this on pf...

the dps check isn't even high...

[cobalt flame]

Hey guys. Just formatted my pc. Where can I download the game. Can't seem to find it on lodestone or do I just download the trial then login?

[viral hemlock]

I feel like 2/2/2/2 has more room for error, if everyone isn’t mitigated to the max you take so much damage

Is there a faster way to lvl new jobs later in game or is it all from lvl 1 up? N doing all job quest for those jobs ?

[silver ruin]

thank you

[remote lintel]

expac jobs dont start at lvl 1

and yes you need to do all the job quests for each

[shell hazel]

The jobs uou can’t get from lvl 1 right ?

[remote lintel]

expansions jobs dont start at lvl 1 yes

only ARR jobs do

[shell hazel]

Okay cool. Thanks

[silver ruin]

50/60 for expansions

[wintry chasm]

Well

[silver ruin]

50 for sb jobs 60 for shb

[remote lintel]

30/50/60

[wintry chasm]

HW jobs start off as level 30

[silver ruin]

o ya 30 for hw

[shell hazel]

Sounds good thanks. Just need to finish the MSQ

[silver ruin]

ok my peanut brain has another question, how many tokens can you get from each floor a week? @_@ 1?

i cant remember

i never farmed normal raids before LOL

[patent citrus]

yeah 1

[silver ruin]

ok thanks

[patent citrus]

but I just made a mistake, didn't realise last floor doesn't drop head -_-

now i'm stuck with 1 head and 1 accessory

[remote lintel]

get another accessory?

[patent citrus]

i was meant to get the head but it needs 2 pieces 😂

can't get the last one from the last floor since it doesn't drop it

[remote lintel]

so get another accessory

[paper canopy]

any idea why I can't send cross world tells? I can directly tell off of friends list or tell directly through party finder to the leader but can't do a normal tell

[patent citrus]

can't get it anymore, last floor i chose accessory

[faint flare]

They have to be on your friends list

[remote lintel]

they cant be in an instance or offline

[patent citrus]

locked till next week

[faint flare]

Or be hosting a PF

To tell cross world

Its wack

[paper canopy]

was this a new change with 5.4?

[faint flare]

No

[copper fiber]

hi i've never played but im seeking help to get started

[faint flare]

Always been a thing

[remote lintel]

ive gotten spam tells from cross world tho

🤔

In the chat

oh i see

[copper fiber]

ty

[placid ridge]

So this is my first "current" raid tier, I just finished e9 normal and got a chest piece thingy, does that mean i won't get loot for 10-12? Or is loot lockout one piece per encounter?

[little swift]

for normal mode its just 1 token per floor per week

so you can still earn stuff from floors 10-12 this week

just not from 9

[placid ridge]

Ok

[remote lintel]

i would plan out what you want beforehand

[placid ridge]

Do all floors pull from the same pool?

[remote lintel]

no

!faq edenloot

[zinc orbit]

Eden raids normal mode drop table

[little swift]

since you already have a chest token, consider going for chest tokens only this week and completing a full piece

[remote lintel]

a lot of gear pieces require multiple tokens

[placid ridge]

How many for a piece? I just checked but I forgot already lmao

[remote lintel]

chest is 4

[placid ridge]

Ok

[remote lintel]

meaning you would have to only pull chest tokens for each floor

[faint flare]

Varies per piece, it says on the item

[placid ridge]

Chest and legs are usually more expensive than the other pieces

[little swift]

it says on the description of each token so make sure you double check

[remote lintel]

both chest and legs are 4

[placid ridge]

Thanks this was very helpful

[copper fiber]

what NA server would you guys recommend for a complete newbie to FF

?

[remote lintel]

crystal has slightly less raiders and more RPers

but pick any of them

[copper fiber]

raiders ?

for bosses ?

[remote lintel]

people who raid

[copper fiber]

i dont role play though just like playing with people

[remote lintel]

if you're not hardcore about raiding then pick any

[placid ridge]

I'm on Siren and there seems to be alot of rp and new player friendly stuff here

[faint flare]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

Which world should I pick?

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)

[copper fiber]

i do want to raid tho

[faint flare]

Tldr: it doesn't matter where you go

[remote lintel]

crystal only has slightly less raiders

its not a huge deal

[faint flare]

Crystal is slightly more rp, aether/primal is slightly more raiding

At the end of the day it doesn't matter

You can do everything on any server

Server choice doesn't matter

[copper fiber]

ok thank you guys 😄

[faint flare]

Data centre does

And all NA data centres are in thr same place

[copper fiber]

sorry if im asking a common question just needed a fun game to ease my boredom

[remote lintel]

matchmaking is done across the entire data center

and you can world visit so individual world doesnt matter

[vocal shell]

Does the owner of the house need to be the one to enter to not let it automatically demolish?

[copper fiber]

ok ty sorry

[spice gyro]

Yeah. Owner needs to enter

[gloomy ice]

Correct. If owned by a single person, tenants can not reset the timer. For FC houses, however, any FC member can reset by entering.

[vocal shell]

thanks

[gritty oracle]

Is there any difference betweene xarchic and ornate exarchic gear?

[twilit karma]

Ornate gear always means it has 5 open materia slots instead of the normal 2. It's the same other than that but that does make the ornate slightly better

[forest laurel]

ornate has 5 open materia slots

meaning you can slot in 5 rank 8 materia

[twilit karma]

But it's not really worth it unless you're world progging

[forest laurel]

yeah pretty much

[twilit karma]

You get them via Khloe's Gold Certificates, if you were wondering

[forest laurel]

it's only good for world proggers

and making money

because they can go for like 8-10m in market

[plain python]

think it as lottery winning 😄

[forest lark]

Can anyone tell me if levelquest allowances reset weekly or daily?

[faint flare]

3 per 6 hours

[twilit arch]

its every 12 hrs

[forest lark]

Hmm so 6 per day

Ohh

[twilit arch]

for a total of 6 every day

you can see in the timers window when you'll get your next leve allowance

[forest lark]

It saya 10 hours

In 10 hours

[manic flare]

what's the least played healer class?

[copper fiber]

sorry another annoying question, for blue mage can i main it ? even if its a limited job ?

[remote lintel]

no

[warped nest]

You cannot main it

[remote lintel]

it cant go over 70

and it cant go in most duties

[copper fiber]

oh ok so useless for raids

[remote lintel]

depends on the raid

[warped nest]

It is basically a mini game, disguised as a job

[copper fiber]

lol

[manic flare]

can blue mage do raids unsync;ed?

[warped nest]

Regarding least played healer jobs, afaict, they are pretty evenly matched

[faint flare]

Yes blue can do unsynced stuff, though you preferred to be synced for the boosted spell learn rate

[warped nest]

BLU can do MSQ and dungeons , but you will need to make your own party to go in

As BLU cannot use Duty Finder to match make

[copper fiber]

ok that leaves me with scholar or summoner then

[remote lintel]

sch and smn share levels

if you level one you level the other

[fallen niche]

https://i.imgur.com/tqgaeqp.jpg is it normal for my squadron to according to the AI, have trouble with these missions? I'm pretty sure I trained them all to the max.

[frail fulcrum]

How do I unlock castrum marinum extreme?

[faint flare]

Drop the archer for someone with more mind

[twilit arch]

talk to the warmachina fanatic

[remote lintel]

theyre only 2 levels above the minimum for that mission

[twilit arch]

in the lochs to unlock the ex

[frail fulcrum]

I cant see him

Maybe I need to do something else.?

[faint flare]

He's literally behind where you unlock normal mode

Like where you went to start the quest line

[twilit arch]

you finished blood of emerald, yes?
