And yeah you get one for free, others cost actual money
oh yeah. its lalafel time.
ARR finishes right before HW starts rtight? like the patch quests are ARR? or is it only the first main story thats ARR
post ARR is ARR
Will Fire 1 get a cooler icon or animation as I level?
No, you get your free one when you finish main ARR, not the patches
no vie
You get better fire spells
Skills dont change their animation as you level
but F1 is always the same.
You just get different ones
Trust me, you'll get Fire 3 and feel like GOD
Well, some do. But they become different spells. But they're upgrades rather than new spells
THEN FUCKIN. FIRE 4.
Yeah but you'll be using fire 1 99% of the time
Like Stone I-IV and Glare
until fire 3
No
you still use fire 1
Fire 3 is worse
*Until F4
occasionally
Than fire 1
No it's not
no. its not
But you need the proc
you use fire 1 even at low levels
The cast time and mana cost is shit
But later all that isn't relavent because you'll be spamming Fire IV and only using F1 to restore AF
Fire 3 isn't a replacement of Fire 1
No one said it was
Its ONLY for swapping stances and Firestarter proc
You can throw in a fire 1 in ur fire rotation to proc for Firestarter, usually once you run out of mana to cast fire 3 i cast two fire 1's at the end.
dont care
still using it cause
ok
That’s extremely bad
Its quite abit worse
It doesn't really matter, again this will all be irrelevant when you get Fire and Bliz IV
It matters
it does matter
Hold up everyone stop
Fire 3 does NOT replace fire 1
It has a specific function
You do not spam it
: )
You only use it to switch from ice into fire and when you get a proc.
The dps difference is very large
Because of the extremely slow cast when you use it while in fire stance
You would sooner diverge a river from its path than to get me to go back to fire 1
If you spam fire 3 you are failing basic proficiency
do what you want but dont tell other people to do what you do
then you're playing poorly
Go back to fire 1.
if you're not using fire 1
i got a road to 70 question. What are your thoughts on getting a journey II pack to get on of the jobs to 70, is the exp boost significant? I wanna get all my jobs to 70 before the buff ends.
You are failing to play your job at the most basic level.
Road to 70 is 2x XP until you each 70. So yes it's very significant
And by 2x, it's 2x for EVERYTHING. All other XP buffs, quest XP, everything
So if anything don't buy skips till that expires
i meant don't you get more bonuses for leveling another job if you already have one that is higher?
Yes but it's not really worth spending money on
Armoury zp
Esp if you have Road to 70
Its for levelling alt jobs
Fuck me then Ig
Use the correct spell.
i understand but i was thinking it'd help when I level my jobs through the story i'd have bonuses since one is already 70
No further discussion is warranted.
but it feels like shit.
Get over it.
i was just hoping to optimize since i dont have too much time and i heard the story itself takes a ton of time
what im saying luna is that you just need a job SOME LEVEL HIGHER than what youre leveling
it doesnt have to be 70
it could be lvl 35 and lvl 33
road to 70 buff is already so strong that you really dont need armoury bonus on top of it
every job feels like shit until level 80
Spamming fire 3 is just
Your level doesn't mean much
you will EASILY outlevel the msq
Not acceptable in a party
with road to 70
In black mage's case it feels like shit until 60 minimum
And then you get glorious fire 4
There's no real point in getting to a high level on a job if you're behind in story
And it feels a lot more shit having to wait like 5 seconds per cast and having it do less damage ngl
Doesn't help much
This squadron engineering manual 20% exp buff to crafting. Does it boost job quest exp as well?
You're likely to get there quite fast with Road to 70, especially if you do a daily leveling roulette. And yeah as long as a any class is higher at all, all other classes get the Armory bonus. But Road to 70 is much higher xp boost anyway so again you really don't need it)
no @patent citrus
which I assume at max lvl ill still be spam casting a tiny little pitiful fireball?
no
No
when's the best time to use it
youll be spamming f4
You’ll have fire 4
after i finished all my job quest i guess?
!faq blmleveling
look at this @vast torrent
ok that's reassuring. I just wanted an optimal start since I'm trying to catch up and get everything leveled asap
use it when you're mass crafting @patent citrus
hey, i am doing the resistance relic weapons, i have a question, can i get all bitter memories in one day, or do i have to get 1 per day?
yeh, but I need to do job quest every 2 levels right? leveling 50-60 right now?
@karmic palm youll still need to do the story, so might as well just take your time and level with the story
There's 0 point in rushing levels as your level means nothing without story progress
No time limit fortunately
or should I finish all ishgardian restoration materials from 50-60 in 1 go
and then do job quest afterwards?
you technically don't need to do crafting every level
do you want to at the very least do your 65 class quest
If a AST uses Synastry on the tank and later heals him with benefic, does the tank get 2 healing skills on them?
yes jonathan
ah ok only lv 65 eh
so you can save 50-60 to do it in 1 go to make it easier
Yes
ok ty ty
Nice
oh ok thanks 🙂
They get the inital heal + synstry 40% heal
yeah i understand about the story, but was just considering exp outside of story. Was trying to get every little bit outta the time i put in is all
that was what i considered but if you guys say i dont need it then i wont get it
Its not hard at all
I however, die knowing all I do is cast a tiny little fireball until HW
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Story and Daily levelling roulettes carry you to cap for the first job
And levelling alt jobs aren't hard, just time consuming
thats your prerogative just know that you're literally being a liability by doing something as silly as "i cast what i want to however i want"
ok i'll look up leveling roulette
sigh Atleast im not too far from 60 i guess.
I haven't been able to avoid overleveling msq, currently in post HW content at lv67
pick up another job
means, leveling new alt ho ho ho
Ohh just caught up to convo
what level does machinist start at?
30
Requires 50 to unlock, job itself starts as a level 30
yeah I think I can unlock any job at this point. I'm just not sure I want to spend the time to level it 30 levels before continuing msq
dnc and gnb start at 60
It’ll be fast if you have road to 70
road to 70?
!buff the road to 70
how is it unlocked
creating a character on a preferred world
ah, yeah I'm pretty sure I didn't do that
(ShB-related lore question) ||The Ivalice quests refer to Viera as simply such in the Source; what is the equivalent name for the race in the First?||
Viis
||vii||
how do i find a linkshell to join?
for what
social while i'm doing quests. or noob help
people gotta invite you to one
just join an fc or the novice network?
same question, but for fc. Wanted to try a place that feels different from the novice network
the recruitment channel or community finder on lodestone
are there any general spots where people are handing out fc/ls invites?
ah community finder
at limsa
You see fcs advertising everywhere
but no guarantees what kind of fc thatll be
Anywhere populated you'll ser fc advertising
i'll try that. i've been admittedly kind of ignoring other players in general
Is cross data center play out yet?
No
having trouble finding the function in keybinds that lets u click through players
i know the default is X but i bind that to something else was hoping someone could tell me where the actual bind is so i can make it something else
tab?
no tab is for mobs and junk
im talking about the hotkey that lets u click through players
does it not do anything when youre out of combat
Isn't there an official FC finder in game now
no
Not ingame, but an official site for it
Where would 1 start the quest for 80 relic
is that just Rabanastre and Lighthouse?
no
those are part of ivalice
not the lvl 80 quest
the prerequisites for the lvl 80 quest are the ivalice quests which include the 3 alliance raids
Vinyl said lvl 70 24s
those are the prereqs
that's what I meant, just those 2?
its 3
hm I appear to be missing the 3rd
on it, ty
Is there a channel on here I can ask for glam ID?
yes
even the face is modded
i have a.. 10 year old account; haven't really played since
is there any dis/advantage to sticking w/ this over picking it up on steam?
i'd have to buy it to play on steam? or buy it anyway?
you would have to make a new account and buy it on steam
If the last time you played was 1.0 you basically don’t have the game
i thought there was like a discount on sub for legacy players?
dang, is the game 10 years old already?
Yes, but you still need to rebuy the base game, IIRC
oh weird
the game as we know it currently is around 6 or 7 years old
10-ish if you include 1.0

can you queue for deep dungeons without being at their entrances?
Nope
thats a pain
the emote menu?
how is starting fresh and playing w/ 1 or 2 friends?
yes
or are we sloggin' it solo through story quests
i meant use the emote menu
how do I use that
when does the event end?
31st
how do you raise culinarian desynth level?
Hey I'm an f2p
Desynth fish
My character was made in 2018 and my Job level is 35
I heard that you can now level up to level 60, however I can't get any exp from killed monsters
they have to be similar level to u
Oh shit
within 10 levels
I went and tried to kill a level 2 XD
i believe
Thanks man
or u can do fates which syncs your level down
and u can kill non-FATE mobs while sync'ed
and gain exp
however kiling monsters in overworld generally is not a good way to gain exp
Is it possible to give obtained Triple Triad cards to other people, or no?
you can't trade tt cards
How often should I be using TBN during pulls?
I just did a Dhon Meg run where I felt like I was getting peeled apart. I was rotating cds as I should, but I felt much more fragile than my PLD.
I mean if you have it you may as well use it it's a waste for it to go un used completely, basically whenever it's up is when I use it on pulls
And then take Buster's of course
ofc
My main thing I'm leery of is MP management
Like, as an example - I was at a point of "Oh, I should use it" but I still had a pip and the count was at 45 seconds
Which made me go "Yeah, but you'll fuck your economy"
TBN is almost always worth it for trash pulls since it generally breaks
I mean, yeah, its -meant- to break
Hello, I have gotten myself a few questions after playing the game for a few hours o.o
Can i use a costume if i buy it while on trial?
You can’t buy from the mogstation as a trial, IIRC
oh sorry
What is the value of the Gil? Like the main quest seems to offer between equipment and these "gold" things you sell for more gil, Do you always choose the equips? Or would you sometime choose the Gil
The Gil option is generally a trap option, IMO
well if the gear prize is better ilvl than the one you have definitely pick the gear option...
I almost always choose the equipment. If I have no personal use for it I can sell it or exchange for seals
Since the free equipment is good for staying equipped, and later equipment sells for a lot more than the Gil option on the marketboard
For the tradeable equipment, that is
sometimes if it offers me one of like 3 food options or gil, I'll just choose gil
even if it's a good food, having 1 is just annoying
ah yeah for food i guess gil is better..
some foods can fetch a high price on MB for whatever reason
i always check the items to see how they will sell
yeh, i don't bother with that 😂 too much back and forth checking
if im just starting w/ some friends-- should we consider boosting so we can just hit dungeons together?
@patent citrus in later levels it's worth it. alot of gear u get from quests fetch in the 40k to 70k range
what is boosting?
Oookay, Another question: If I started my character in Siren and I use the Aether thing to move my character to Sargantanas, would I receive the exp buff?
If you mean the job/story skip I wouldn’t recommend just for the sake of doing dungeons
@chilly galleon a large portion of this games quality comes from its story
Final Fantasy first, mmo second
So say i wanted to change from Monk to a mage can i do that from level 10?
so skipping tears into that pretty heavily
Also your first dungeon comes at level 15 in the story
yeah you can get 15 in like an hour
After you complete your level 10 class quest, yes
is there any use for these while im in stormblood?
Nope they're for Shadowbringers
i'm just collecting these things and have no idea w hat they do
you exchange them for materia
where
they trade for grade 7 and 8 materia
yeap me to
at shb zones
@marble drift what about.. i watch a youtube video on the story
i highly doubt the 1-..60 story isnt going to be shiut
its...not?
that would take you 20+ hours of just watching
thats a tough sell
I just desynthed a bunch of stuff I couldn't sell/don't use anymore, now inventory is filled with a couple of a bunch of things. It feels a waste to sell in a shop, too much of a pain to craft with, too many items to sell via retainer. I guess I should just sell in shop?
not really
it doesn't get better until much later in ARR
it sets up world building
its world building. you can't start a bad ass hero
but its also on the rails
it's too much fluff
also dungeons arent endgame
@agile night really depends on how much you value the time it might take for your retainer to sell the item
you get your first dungeon at 15
but if im trying to play w/ friends,
silverhand is implying the game sint worth it
if we arent into the story
the game is 75% story
Its a majority.
and even if you boosted you would still have to do the shb story
well im going back to the game now thank you all again for the help
sorry my mind is being blown here
because the story was released over time?
im sure ill have more questions later
so the game isnt fun endgame?
way more than a week or 2
it is depending on what oyu like
we're saying raiding is a small portion of endgame
its not everything
sorry the *multiplayer
theres plenty of opportunities to play with other people
this game is like a 75% single player rpg, 15% sims 4, 10% MMO
ok, thank u buoyant
yeah if you're looking to sit in a party with your buds and never leave it for the entirety of your game lifespan
thats...not a thing
my only mmo experience before this was runescape 15 years ago, it's sure very different from that.
does runescape have crafting/gathering?
yes
majority of 'mmos' these days tbh
exactly, its been a bummer
biggest surprise for me is how little people talk
not that its bad. SWTOR does the single player story in MMO universe REALLY good.
I guess everyone just talks in party or free company chat.
you can join the mentor/novice network
In here its okay. Its why I tend to play in RP servers because people tend to interact a bit more...
it's a world wide chat
like the little lalafel concert in Mateus today. They were adorable.
coming from runescape as my only mmo background, it's a huge difference. in runescape everyone would just be talking everywhere you went. Only alternative was private messaging a single person.
it's like that in FFXIV too
people talk everywhere as well
well mostly in cities
not so much in the world map
since you maybe meet 1-2 people in a given zone
only thing I often see while standing around in limsa is people advertizing whatever sites for gil and such
always report those bots
you dont really have to
i try to. but SE doesn't make it easy
theyre going to bannedanyway
I imagine it would be fairly easy for SE to track their messages anyway
everytime i click on a bot they jsut disappear
raid food for mch is chicken?
i can use FFBardMusicPlayer without being banned correct
smoked

If you don’t tell random people you’re using it, yes
Yes
Anybody else in here new looking for someone to learn the game and group up with let me know.
@obsidian patio Whats FFBardMusicPlayer?
just started and im level 16 at this point
It basically plays MIDIs you feed it into the game? I don’t play on PC so I can’t tell you the specifics
Ah
But you basically have it auto-perform for you
If you were a fresh 80 without million of gil to spend on gear what would be the fastest way to get allegory to get 490 gear so you can actually unlock more msq/8/24 mans?
You can also get a full set of neo ishgardian (i480) for very cheap on most worlds now
Nowadays it's like 40k a piece
I checked most were out on crystal and and the few listed on most worlds are 150-250k per peice
even exarchic is at that price now
most of the exarchic are going for 250-450k per piece, some worlds are cheapers but that is the current going rate
fresh 80 without million of gil? o.O
The point is there is no cheap gear otherwise I would of grabbed the neo
I think by the time i finished MSQ, i got like 5m lol
You must of saved all of your gil never buying nothing 😛
There's sites that list all of the possible map locations btw Ash
Yeah that one fjjfhjf
bought some glamours and a few other items along with crafting and gathering gear to level up those
its H on that website, by the byu
ah i see
you are quite right 😂
@solid sinew I would say farm allegory + puppet bunker + coin factory and get all augmented crystarium set + fully upgraded relic weapon
then you should have 500 ilvl gears
When/where can I trade for level 80 crafter gear?
you mean white scrips? should be the closest scrips exchange
it's under white scrips crafter gear III
or you can pick up aesthete set on marketboard
@sand grove Eulmore once you unlock it far enough through the SHB MSQ, after which point you can trade with any script vendor to buy the white script gear with white scripts you earn, otherwise you will have to spend gil to buy your gear
Are they only available after said point in the MSQ? I haven't started ShB yet
hmm sorry that one I never tried..
Where in the world is this location>?
but there should be an scrip exchange exp in each main city
you could talk to them and see if they are available for you (white scrips gear)
if not then you gotta settle with aesthete set
Yes can't buy gear if you have not unlock the vendor that originally sells it

what do i do with clear demimateria?
how to reset your chocobo color feeding order?
I just feed it random thing till now
If you want to reset the color feed it a Han Lemon
If you mean the order of food you can’t redo that
take out the chocobo from the stable
what is the button that target nearest npc? 😮
you know, when people swarm npc and you cannot point at him
numpad 0
how do the rewards for emerald ex work? like if I join a party already having gotten my 2 for the week, does that screw anything up for the rest of the party?
Emerald doesn't have anything weekly. Are you thinking of another duty?
nope just dumb sorry, thanks

how can i check how much rest exp i have
What DoH/DoL jobs should I get to 80 as a new player? I'm only level 70 with my DoW job atm, once I get to 80, I'll focus on leveling up DoH/DoL jobs, but is there an order to do them so I don't have to sink as much gil into leveling the other jobs up?
all crafters at the same time
how to gear up lv70
if the rested exp doesn't extend past your current exp bar, then that much. If it goes past your current exp bar, there's no way to tell really unless you use it up
At the same time?
did you finish stormblood @dense cloud
yes at the same time
level them all together
yes
buy scaevan at rhalgrs
So like weaver/armorer/leatherworker/goldsmith?
all of them
no, 8 of them hehe
all DoH at the same time, you could be cheap and level DoL at the same time with DoH to get the mats but thats a massive time investment
and honestly it isnt worth it
they shares armor 😂 and each crafers job quest drops armor from different variety
you can collect full set without buying npc gears if you gradually leveling them together
also sometimes they share the same job quest requirements and usually one item that crafters made is required to finish the other crafter's job quest
level them in increments of 5
Yeah, I noticed that I needed goldsmith stuff now that I'm at level 20 weaver
or you can just focus on your MSQ and just hand in GC supply and provision per day
what about gatherer jobs? Should I level them as well?
you'll reach 80 eventually
yeah sure, they usually levels with leve
I'll probably clear 80 msq by next week so that's when I'll actually start leveling DoH/DoL
just doing some DoH/DoL stuff so that I don't get bored from just doing msq
ooo then you'll be loaded hehe
you can use the ishgard restoration guide from #doh-dol-lounge pin
now lvl 70 but only at lvl 66 msq
looks good hehe
So much stuff, so little time 
why are you in a hurry? 🤔
Haha, cause I seen my FC people doing raids everyday and that looks fun, just want to catch up
oh hehe, they are not going anywhere 😂
Hi, just finally finished ShB and did my first e1n run. Is there a cap on what you can roll for or is it all free for all since it's older gear set?
Awesome, thanks.
only the last tier has a cap
E1-8 are uncapped and you can grab anything.
E9-12 are weekly locked and allow you to win only one drop per floor per week.
hmm i've been wondering about my rested level..
i've level'd the rest of my crafters that haven't reached lv 80
5 of them gained like 20 levels now and I still have tons of rested exp
i level'd them with ishgard restoration + job quest
rested exp is based on the class you logged out on
so if you get 1.5 levels on a lvl 80 then it would be a lvl 80's worth of rested exp
omg
it scales?
yes
not everything uses up rested exp
yeah, but ishgardian restoration + job quest? o_o
Yeah rewards for quests and turn ins don't use rested
Whats the macro code for sound effects?
I'm sick and fucking tired of not getting healed in time for Living Dead
are you using living dead for dungeon?
In this instance, for Shadowkeeper
<se.x> where X can be from 1 to iirc 14
Thanks
But it only works in party chat nowhere else
They're instant cast so you can move
Iirc the potencies are comparable to better than Ruin 3
Also they give you Ruin IV stacks
no you should be using them
instant casts also mean you can weave more
even if you dont need to move or weave
use them
You should in general use Emerald Carbie for dungeons, and Ruby for bosses
this
use up your pet attacks first then use your regular gcds
Also, for emerald carbuncle, its attacks are area of effect so on multiple targets it's worth it
is there a FF14 veteran willing to spend 10-15 mins in a call refreshing me on this game? I remember how to kill shit and avoid dying but outside of that I'm a big ole noob. could pay if thats needed.
anyone here want to get merry just for fun? I'm a cat girl.

!faq newplayertips
@mild marten
also look up weskalber on youtube for his leveling guides if you forget how to play your class
You might also just want to sit down in front of a dummy and iron out your rotation
lvl80 already, really just need to relearn how to get the gear I need + anything I may have missed on my pure speed playthrough. I dont remember how any of the tomestone currency works.
!faq contentunlock
!faq gearguide
currently "allegory" is the non-weekly capped tomestone, and revelation is the weekly capped (at 450 a week)
the last tier of the 8 man raids is also weekly locked at 1 drop per floor
appreciate it!
Guys... i kinda stopped after ARR... and only a tiny bit into Heavensward
What classes are really fun to play now?
any really, just what your drawn to me is samuari and black mage
You that's just too subjective a question. You'll find people to say any particular class is fun for them, and then the next group will say that same class is boring/they don't like it
I mainly wanna go through the story and just a limited amount of raids.... I liked paladin because it's versatile, but i am worried that i will suck as a tank.
man everyone suck at first >.<
Tanking in this game is quite easy so I wouldn't worry. Just takes experience like anything. And there are plenty of good guides out there on tanking and on Paladin itself
Are ppl elitist like WOW? (haven't played mmo for a long time lol)
Elitists exist, but they're much fewer and farther between
During the levelling experience most people have positive experiences with other players
Especially outside of like, savage raiding they're very rare. Yeah most people are pretty patient and willing to give tips when you're just doing dungeons and that kind of thing
thanks! btw, i understand this game's leveling is mostly based on the main story.... What if i tried a class and it's not for me. How do i level a second class quickly?
If someone is elitist to a newbie, i'll just report them >.>
!faq altlvlguide
duty roulette usually once a day
5 days O_o
hunt logs, challenge log, fates below lvl 15, roulettes, beast tribes, highest lvl dungeon for 15+
yeah the guide is for really grinding it out
The point is the game gives you lots of ways to level outside of the MSQ so don't worry. Plus all your classes under your highest get an XP bonus as well
@patent citrusno
ok ty ty
hahha... really want to start playing FF14 again (will probably start tomorrow).... but i am getting old, so will only play a bit from time to time
use to play like 8 hours a day, can't do that anymore XD
Yeah they had to ban people from doing that because they fucked up everyone's Ishgard FATEs
yeah take it slow
this game was made to be taken slow
haha.. good... I am not like some of my friend who expect me to play every night lol
Hey guys, in a macro can you cpose/change pose to a specific pose or no?
my character is currently lvl 23, do u get attribute points or is everything lvled automatically?
auto hehe
is that a yes or no
it feels like there's a point system somewhere but I can't seem to find it
Wdym
there used to be, but it was removed quite some time ago
so you automatically just get more attributes as you level up
attribute points are your stats
I meant ur "attributes"
Your stats are from your gear though
naturally gained from leveling up
you get a few from your level
AFAIK, no
like determination/strength/critical hit? @leaden ginkgo
I should probably rephrase bc I'm new to the game and I don't know half.the things being brought up
your phrases are actually correct - if you look in the character panel there's a bunch of stats listed under "Attributes"
when I level up, do I get "attributes" that I can freely increase at my disposal
no
to answer your question, no
ok thanks
it's all passive
ohh
if you look at gear it will have "+23 strength +30 vitality" or whatever
and depending what class you are youll want different stats
like casters want intelligence, healers want mind
wait so does this mean that if I'm currently a marauder, but later want to switch to samurai when the job becomes available, I only have to switch my gear to dps centric stats like str?
youll get new gear
You still need to unlock the job and then you just equip the katana yes
whats that?
types of gear
oh
later on gear will say stuff like "blah blah of striking"
striking means monk/samurai
Yeah
Like uh
Blah blah robe of healing
for healers
Very obvious when you get there
for now just pick gear that gives you strength
Ok, thank u
strength / high defence values
make sure it's actually tank gear though
Really
really
High defence value > strength
since some gear will have strength but have less defence since it's mainly meant for DPS
for my current class?
btw, is Dragoon still a good class? Easy to use?
yes
No job is bad the thing that matters is your skill
But yeah it's rotation is pretty static
the combos are pretty simple
so there isn't very complex flexibility in dragoon
I would like to say that all classes are not difficult once you read up on how they work
And understand why their rotation are organized in a specific order
objection im too smooth brain for summoner
i need culinary gear. where can i find vendors who sell them?
anyone know the name of the ost that plays when shadowbringers 5.0 spoilers: ||thancred names ryne in amh araeng||?
does e9s have an enrage mechanics? is it the raid wide attack at end of second empty plane?
any people who play in elemental here? how do you type the raising hand symbol in chat?
you mean o/
the / but slightly curved
they probably use a JP keyboard
there's a final deluge of darkness cast
thats the enrage
oノ
Heyo, new player here
Just a quick question about job gear - so I recently got level 60 as a MCH and I'm looking to store it away so I won't have to worry about it later. Is using the glamour dresser the only way to do it, because I can't seem to use the armoire and I'm not entirely sure why
I don't know why but it's not letting me activate the fight with the marauders during Kicking the Hornet's Nest. I have the quest active but I dont know what to do
Yeah the job gear can't really go in the armoire except the ARR ones Delta
Quest says use "/me" at them
It's an emote
thank you
Ah ok got it! Well at the very least that's less classes to worry about space for in the dresser lol. Thanks!
type /lookout usually
Go in it and do the correct emote and you'll get a small bit of xp and stuff
hi hi sorry if im interrupting aomeone but how much do glamour prisms tend to be in cactuar for market board
im still in my free trial so yah
yeah ik thats why im wondeting
oh sorry, i got it

not cheap enough to warrant not buying with GC seals
if theres a site that lets me see current marketboards that be nice
there isn't hehe
Well
i was originally planning to craft them but that takes,, forever.... and lots of grinding
at least the current price
i see
I only saw "face me" not "face /me" in the log. I think that was my problem
as for the grand company thing im still trying to climb up the ranks to purchase some buts its a process at the early stages
@chrome salmon go to #kupo-bot-spam and type !market cactuar glamour prism
o tyty!
although that isn't the current price...
There is a bot command to see prices from this one website might it's like, publicly updated so it might be the EXACT listings as of this moment
any tips for this?
Grand company part of your hunting log
also
fates aren't bad
Once you hit the rank to unlock expert delivery you can basically start rolling in seals all day every day
fates are kinda annoying tbh lol
once you get to sergeant second class, you can turn in gear for seals
well, twin adder representing 😎
here if you want complete info https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Grand_Company...
Is that legit ^^
Yes
Just be aware that's only a level boost not a main story boost
I dont mind 70 gets me to almost max lvl
getting to lvl 80 is kind of moot without your msq being lvl 80 too
pointless
main scenario quest is basically required for almost everything to some degree
Once you do your level 10 class quest on your beginning class, that's all
so if you're lvl 80, but you haven't completed the lvl 80 msq, then you can't do lvl 80 content
Ah yeah I know
Expansion job level requirements and....that's it?
Gives me a boost 10k gil and a lvl 70 summoner set
more than 10k
500k i think
but theres hardly any point
no its more than 10k
oh really? i see
its 500k
Im on the site
No no
It says "sells for 10k"
The allagan pieces are 10k
Exactly
You get 50 of those @weak escarp
but you get 50 of them
Oh
so its 500k total
Mb mb
it's 500k 😂
Might get it then dont mind doing the story at a low lvl its pretty good so far
500k is low enough jesus imagine it was just 10
😂
True
even if you got it you wouldnt be able to use the higher lvl skills during the story
so
it would sync you down
No lvl 70 summons?
no
Not in the instanced dungeons and solo story duties
if it was a lvl 16 dungeon you get lvl 16 skills
you can't do lv 70 content, so you will get sync'd down to the instance you unlocked hehe
So the actual benefit is the set and gold?
No
Oh yeah set is ass
The actual benefit is neither of those, the set is easy to get and the gold isn't much, the set isn't ass, it's just easy
its just easy to get
Cant use in instances
No
it's usually bought by people who finished everything but want to level an alt class 🤔
You misunderstand what that means Jasem
Oh nvm im dumb
dungeons sync your gear down
^
saving time of grinding out them levels
So during main story I can use lvl 70 stuff?
Which tbh if you are on a preferred server you'll never need to grind out levels on your first job anyway
outside of dungeons
yeah, but the exp you get will be minuscule 😂
also its a waste of exp
well duh lmao
i can get more lost finds skills from skill fragments, right?
Ill think about it then ty ima sleep
wait lol
when you finish the main quest for the expansions you have
does it just
stop?
sorry that sounds dumb lmao
Yes.
I think there will be a continuation to the story right? i mean incoming patch
it says to be continued
I don't think it's ended yet...
you mean patch? 😂
ok lol i recently bought a time card and didnt want to use it till i finished heavensward
no theres going to be another expansion
in 2021
along with patches leading up to it
wait, so the story of shadowbringer is finished?
Also a bit of a misc. question!
Just noticed that there were two pieces of gear that popped up for machinist - I assumed the 'antiquated' gear is no longer available?
Yes and no
Yes: it was removed from the game in 5.3 when they simplified a bunch of old expansion tomestone/hunt gear
antiquated used to be the gear the game gave you when you completed the job quests
No: it used to be a tomestone set in heavensward and was the initial version before upgrading it into the “Normal” version
The antiquated version was ten ilvls weaker and undyeable.
can you put a macro into another macro?

Pretty sure macros cannot reference each other
They cannot.
good way to level alt jobs?
dungeons
!faq altlvlguide
besides dungeons?
Do daily roulettes then highest level dungeons
ty
Bozja is also an option at that level range
plus do beast tribes
pixie beast tribe can give you the greater part of a level per day
from 70-80
https://i.imgur.com/boPweHL.png anything special about this FATE outside of exp?
first time seeing this type
The exclamation mark just means you talk to an npc to start it
After that it switches icon to whatever its type is
Bonus exp is just a buff that you get off the fate when you complete it
Oh
Its random which fate those are assigned to afaik
Starts in SB, too, I think
Not always the same fate that gets that buff
does tank stance as marauder means 100 percent defiance uptime????
its not z right aha
Tank stance is a toggled skill
If you see it on your buff bar you have it on
Pressing it again will turn it off
does anyone know of a fix for a bug of achievement not unlocking?
Being level synced into an instance will turn it off
wait so I click it once and once only?
and clicking it again will turn it off
in a dungeon for example
Just check that its on when you load into an instance reyo
You can be level synced down and itll be automatically turned off
If the achievement isn't unlocking it might be possible you haven't met all the conditions

And if you have met the conditions but haven't gotten the reward go speak to jonathas in gridania
I was doing fate achievement and it didn't unlock we were the only party there
ah kk thank you
What fate achievement
for coeurl regina
Are you sure you did the correct one
Iirc coerulregina has several phases and only the last one counts for the achievement
it had the same name fate name on the achievement
You'd be looking for the third fate in the chain
You also need to get a gold rating for most fate achievements to unlock
So it may have been that
https://i.imgur.com/DW3KM1d.png how long will this last? I don't see a timer 😮
next fate completion
how m uch it would increase?
that I am personally not sure of
I can't see the cross hotbar for some reason halp
Go to character config and make sure the game is set to controller mode in the top left
Oh wait cross hotbar means controller cross hotbar? here I was thinking it was a hotbar that didnt change regardless of the job :<
Those are shared hotbars
If you want to change what hotbars change based on job you also do that in character config in the hotbar section under the "shared" tab
Anyone know if Levinstrike Aethersand sell any good?
its basically used for all the highest consumables right now
so yeah, it'll generally sell well
I figured so, thanks for the info ^^
;_; why are glam items so expensive
Supply and demand
because you only need to buy 1. so the materials are harder to come by sometimes too
welp only 700k gil to save up left ig 😄

The sniper mechanic is so hard with legacy movement in Orborne Monastery, any tricks to it?
?? are you on controller?
then it should be relatively simple to face yourself in the right direction
I only survived the second time because it was luckily directly behind
Will I ever want to do a lower tier field exploration for some kind of rare drops or something?
I wasd to the open angle for mustadio
It would be really easy to rotate it because you don't need to do mental gymnastics on angle compensation when facing a new direction but it feels like you get so much less time the first cast due to the cutscene sequence
there are no targets to target, find mustadio and make your open spot shown to it
just hold right click and turn with wsad
That sounds like a good strategy, thanks
I'm having trouble with tank rotations as a marauder, I know that I have to ALWAYS have tank stance on, but when it comes to aoe and crowd control im lacking behind quite a lot
spam aoe all the time?
only 3+ targets yes
on 2 targets, use your single target rotation split between em
and what did you mean by Crowd Control?
in the sense Im used to its like stuns and blinds and other debuffs
what by single rotations do you mean uh
or do you mean controlling a crowd as a tank?
heavy hit and maul(?)
and yeah
for example when a ranged enemy starts to attack my party member I resort to using provoke
but I'm super slow and it takes forever and I feel like I'm doing smth wrong
Nope. thats fine. Generally in a big pull. if there are a few ranged characters over there while you fight the melee you have 3 options. walk out of their line of sight to make them walk forwards to you, throw your ranged attack at them (Warriors use Tomahawk) to keep aggro OR drag the melee enemies you're fighting on top of them to aoe them all down at the same time
ok
wow i really need to practice this
tutorial is great but its not as similar as tanking in dungeons
and yes your single target rotation is Heavy Swing > Maim and then (once you get them) finish with Storm's Path
or Storm's Eye
if i screw up my seals, does the rabbit do anything? will i later be able the restore my seals mid-rotation?
damn
The only way to input another one is to finished the failed one
and wait.
so if you go Ten-Chi-Chi (which is a rabbit)
you have to finish that and lock in the rabbit before you can try to input a correct sequence
the game became much more fun after i got the seals
Ninja is a popular class. Its nice and fast, never boring
and has BIG numbers at max level with Hyosho Ranryu (or however thats spelt)
!action Hyosho Ranryu
Deals ice damage with a potency of 1,200.
Mudra Combination: Chi→Jin or Ten→Jin
Can only be executed while under the effect of Kassatsu.
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
There we go.
ive been looking at the official census and ninja seems to be the least played dps
thats why i picked it lol
but the running animation as the giant race (roe?) is kinda awkward
