i think you can unlock DRK as soon as you get to Ishgard
remote lintel
yes
fresh isle
How can I write into that novice network?
nothing in my chat and all I see are system MSGs and gil sellers
potent tapir
Keep in mind, you can't unlock your first job stone until you have gotten sufficiently far in the A Realm Reborn Main Story Quest, @subtle lake
hasty musk
They're level 53, they should be far enough
potent tapir
So if you've out leveled the MSQ, you might not have the option
remote lintel
they did already
potent tapir
Ah
subtle lake
so just one last thing, when I can unlock the dark boy. do I keep my current level? is it just a change of job - thansk @potent tapir I must be fairly near the end of RR as I am fighting mechs etc now after
remote lintel
no
hasty musk
Jobs level independently
potent tapir
Some people are weird though and get to like 50 before getting that far because they do all the side content. So I can never tell.
shrewd owl
DRK starts at 30
remote lintel
each class has its own level and drk starts at 30
potent tapir
solar bay
hi
hasty musk
Yes?
solar bay
New here, is that too late for the ultimate weapon ?
subtle lake
ahhh ok separate class got it
remote lintel
what do you mean ultimate weapon
solar bay
the binky weapon from alexder
potent tapir
Dark Knight can be unlocked by getting to the Heavensward expansion main story, @subtle lake
solar bay
because I cannot find any party to the savage eden gate for unlock the duty
hasty musk
That's because it's old
crystal bluff
just means no one is running it rn
subtle lake
thanks all, I will crack on and get the dark boy sorted. big help
solar bay
e9s ?
hasty musk
The ultimate weapons are basically cosmetic, aren't they? People don't want them for stats
gritty oracle
Ultimate is very very hard. You can't pug it.
nova umbra
how reasonable is a 515 ilvl requirement at this stage?
hasty musk
Then you'll have to clear e8s (?) I think to unlock TEA
gritty oracle
515 means you have at least half revelation or savage gear
solar bay
so I just keep going to eden promise and savage then
remote lintel
its e4s
hasty musk
Put up a party yourself if you can't find one
gritty oracle
I'd say 510 is reasonable unless you want to pug like 12.
solar bay
now my avg item level just meet 500
green grail
its basically the hardest content in the game, so its not really a viable goal for someone with a fresh 80
remote lintel
bis for TEA is different

I don't imagine you'll find anyone for either of those regularly since they're both old

is so true
last time isgard restoration makes every duty sudden stopped after the restoration no body gonna play previous thing
Sigh
hard to catch in this game sometimes
lilac flume
can you eat/fully benefit from foods/potions if you're lower level than them?
solar bay
no
proud willow
depends on the food and your level. In some cases, you will get a larger bonus from eating food closer to your level
green grail
you wont meet the stat caps from the food most likely
lilac flume
say, eating lvl 80 food synched as a lvl 50
green grail
like if it's +5% crit (max 100) and 5% of your crit is less than 100 then its kind of a loss
if you just want exp then eat any cheap food
lilac flume
nah stats is what im after
im planning to make a group for running old content synched and wanted to know if i could just make 80 food and be done with it or if i'd have to research old food picks
green grail
yeah should be fine
proud willow
Actually, it looks like i480 food gives a really large %
so it would be better than lower level food, which isn't how they used to do it, so I stand corrected
lilac flume
well i guess between tthat and higher ilvl gear we'd be "cheating" a bit compared to when the content was current but cba to "fully synch" myself, too much work
also do you need to finish all the blue mage quests to get the class quest completion achievments?
oak radish
does anyone know what the adventurer in need exp bonus is?
proud willow
the achievements for like "get all Disciple of Magic to level 80" do not include BLU
leaden ginkgo
hello, I'm still new to this game xD I have a question, whenever I try to make an account, after I enter the 8 digits code for registering my account, it always gives me an error, the error code is i2501.. I've tried to google what's the problem, and I don't have any vpn on, my internet connection is fine, I even tried in my phone with mobile data but it's still the same..
Does anyone have the same problem or have the fix to this? Thank you so much!
lilac flume
@oak radish i think its that xp but not sure
oak radish
oh it actually says
lilac flume
p sure it also says "you obtain x xp for being an adventurer in need" after the dungeon ends as well
lilac flume
the achievements for like "get all Disciple of Magic to level 80" do not include...
there are those achievments but there are also achievments for finishing the class' quests which is what i was wondering about
elfin wagon
what npc can i exchange my tomes of phantasmagoria at
proud willow
Auriana in Mor Dhona, in the tent where you spend Poetics
lilac flume
since those are discontinued you can trade them for allegory tomes at revenant's toll
can you be a craft AND battle mentor or do you have to pick one
elfin wagon
okay thank u !
little swift
You can be both
You'll have just the 
Or choose whichever you wanna display
Otherwise you only get the 1 or other crown if you don't meet both prerequisite
proud willow
There are achievements for leveling BLU to 60 but I don't see any for doing the BLU quests
though there are several related to the Masked Carnival which unlocks after doing the quests to 50

does cover also cover knockback?
as in, covering the guy during a kb mech would propel the pld even further for having 2 kbs on them unless they arms length?
little swift
Yah cover eats the displacement for your target as well
Is a gimmicky way to cheese uptime for your melees
little swift
Not entirely sure the displacement is doubled on the paladin
faint flare
It is
I remember seeing videos of Paladins getting fucking send flying if they covered Shinyrus knockback in phase 2 transition
fresh isle
now really stupid question
is there just one type of dance emote or not?
and if there is more how to get them?
patent citrus
hmm wow, so if you cover someone, the target will not be knockback'd but you will? 🤔
faint flare
Yes
faint flare
Cover treats its so as if you're getting hit instead of the covered target
patent citrus
just by finishing all blue/msq alone you will get like 4+ variety

fleet abyss
I have a question. have me via square enix store the digital Colletors collection bought in the sale. I already have the game with all dlc but without the collectors edition. Can I redeem it anyway?
patent citrus
which product are you referring to?
I see cases when someone bought complete collector edition and they got 2 codes instead of 1
fleet abyss
patent citrus
idk maybe you can try to buy the one in different platform
that way you can play in 2 different platform + get the collector edition
for example if you are playing on PC, you can get the complete edition + collector on PS4? 🤔
that way you won't waste the complete edition code..
but wait a minute and wait for someone who has more knowledge and experience helped you further

why is the moogle primal crafted weapons so much more expensive than all the other ARR primal crafted weapons?
some go as high as HW and even SB crafted weapons in some servers
crystal bluff
because they look silly, probably
zinc orbitBOT

They also require farming GKMM, which there's literally no other reason to do

how to get all 500 gear item level fast?

castrum Marinum need 500 il ... I am stuck with the weekly thing ?
faint flare
Fast: buy HQ Exarchic
Without gil: Farm allegory for Crystarium and upgrade it (buy the upgrade items for Sacks of nuts or by exchanging the two Nier raid coins for an upgrade item)
solar bay
Will try the crystarium but it seem only can boost to 500 il other than that still need to farm the cryptlurker
alpine shadow
does not matoya's relict drop also over ilvl500 gear?
scarlet arrow

alpine shadow
oh.. ok.
uh, then i guess you can attempt to farm tier 2 savage, or what ilvl is normal tier 3 .
glass oxide
Tier 3 ilvl is 510
scarlet arrow
Eden's Promise also drops items redeemable for 510 gear

faint flare
Unreal, extreme and savage no one does in duty finder
little swift
i know jp does use df for reclearing but not always
solar bay
everyone are now in eden promise ending savage
I just keep wait a long time
it is also many times they said the grouping time is under 5 minute
and 1 hours already gone
and the party finer and duty finer cannot combine to use thats really annoying haha anyway
scarlet arrow
There may be a lot of veterans who remember Titan EX and have no interest in Unreal <.<
solar bay
somehow the duty finer usually have people join but just a little maybe
tank 1 dps 2 healer 0 something thats usually happen

while seeing someone come, I just think of waiting .... but and an hour gone again
solar bay
it makes everything not gonna happen party finder not much people come, duty finer cannot search for players haha
Tonberry already is a most people server in JP one
They catch up so quick anyway I know that. But this time I just thinking how to catch up with them maybe the only way really need at least 500 to get the emld weapon as soon as possible

Hey guys, im a new player on the crystal server, and I was wondering if there was a way to party up with other players doing free roam/guild questing? It feels really weird just roaming the world by myself especially in a FF game haha
leaden ginkgo
uhh, question, if i were to buy the game, can i access my account and play without buying anything from ps4, or do i need to make a new account/rebuy the game
remote lintel
and theres not really any point to party for overworld stuff
leaden ginkgo
Ok, thanks!
remote lintel
@leaden ginkgo you would need to buy the game again but you can access your character
remote lintel
yes
leaden ginkgo
thats awesome
outer plank
uhh, question, if i were to buy the game, can i access my account and play witho...

Oh yeah, uh, if my friends play on a different world, but on the same server, can i make a character in the world they play in or am i stuck with the one i chose?
leaden ginkgo
So I'm stuck in Zalera then? that kinda sucks
remote lintel
no you can visit other worlds on your data center
remote lintel
you can't if youre on different worlds
leaden ginkgo
So if i want to play with them i have to make a new account and select their world
remote lintel
a new character yes
leaden ginkgo
so worlds are character wise and not account wise

yes
leaden ginkgo
alright i get it now
zinc orbitBOT
leaden ginkgo
Another question about the full game, i wanted to play as one of the DLC races, do i get a race change buying the game + dlc or do i have to make a new character?
faint flare
You get the item that allows race changing after completing the base arr story
At lv50
remote lintel
you dont get a free character edit besides that
leaden ginkgo
alright, only one last question, i hope
I come from guild wars 2 and in there, theres some extra character customization options locked behind a makeover kit, new hairstyles, faces, etc etc, is there anything like this in here that i should worry about or does the base character creation already have everything?
remote lintel
you can unlock hairstyles and thats it
and viera and hrothgar dont get the extra hairstyles

I guess one last unreleated question, is there a way to get more cards for triple triad aside from buying them in the golden saucer?

you get them as drops from trials and dungeons and stuff

And buying from some special vendors

Hello. I plan to start my journey with FFXIV but I decided to ask about things firstly. So, I know it's type of the game which is based on quests and dungeons. There is no serious grind like in some MMO where you have to kill monsters 24/7. Any short reviews or sth like that? Would be really helpful
alpine shadow
Uh, well, you don't kill monsters 24/7 luckly.
but this is a pve game, so you will kill, monsters, and npc's.
mostly its just "follow the msq, and do what you want"
but if you are looking for relic grinding, aka bozja, then its basically kinda 24/7 monster killing as an alternative, if that is what you like.
slate arrow
This is a theme park mmo
You're either going from moment to moment or you're replaying dungeons and boss battles most of the time
crystal bluff
^
you wont be farming 100s of the same mob in the overworld
also
isnt bozja the slow way of getting relic weapons
alpine shadow
You need to do bozja to unlock them
crystal bluff
ah
alpine shadow
but yeah, dungeon farming for bozja relic was just a daily alternative, so you would not have to grind them so much
lavish tulip
Hey! I'm also thinking about trying the game but the website of the payment is a bit off to me, I heard there's a discount going so I wanna buy all the content. So I should go for this one FINAL FANTASY XIV Online Complete Edition right?
obsidian patio
If you don’t have the base game, then yes
lavish tulip
whats the difference between those two?
lavish tulip
just cosmetic stuff?
obsidian patio
Yep
lavish tulip
can you get it later? like by paying the difference?
lilac flume
do you need to finish all the blue mage quests to get the class quest completion achievments?
not the "get to x lvl" but the class quests achievment
zinc orbitBOT
alpine shadow
can you get it later? like by paying the difference?
yes, you can get the upgrade later if you want
obsidian patio
Yeah you can digitally upgrade to collector’s edition through the mogstation
The base game and each expansion has their own collector’s edition
alpine shadow
for complete edition upgrade it costs 80$, but per expansion collectors its 20$.
obsidian patio
Besides the Heavensward edition which also has a race/gender change item, they’re all a mix of vanity items like mounts/minions/vanity weapons and gear
alpine shadow
but there was a time that collectors edition upgrade had a discount. https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/88dc959aae42bd76e74427b7f4351d34d715822d

also, if you thinking of getting the non-collectors edition, the upgrade is rarely discounted, so getting the collectors edition would be cheaper now with 50 off, than upgrading later.

unreal python
How hard are extreme trials in comparison to savage raids? Is there any difference?
alpine shadow
extreme is a bit easier than savage
obsidian patio
Extreme trials are usually about the same difficulty as the first floor or two of a savage tier
But can be easier
unreal python
So would it be a good idea to do extreme trials as a sort of practice for savage raids
alpine shadow
Not really, but it is an ok start.

if youve never done savage yes
it's a step down from savage and gives oyu a good idea of what to expect

But only just, since they're shorter and less mechanically intensive
See: TEA enigma codex, UwU LB charges
manic flare
what difficulty level is shinryu ministrel ballad?
slate arrow
extreme
One of the easier extremes, actually, since it was introduced in one of the earlier stormblood patches so it's one of the easiest to cheese unsynced as well
manic flare
how do you cheese shinryu?
slate arrow
undersized party unsync
Ultimates you cannot unsync so that's one of the reasons why they remain hard
However the DPS checks are easy since the ShB reworks also buffed every job at 70 so it's just an issue of mechanical knowledge now

most of the mog station stuff is just cosmetic

Nothing you can buy with real money will affect you at endgame
You can skip over story and leveling progression, but not really with endgame progression
And it's only most of the way. You'll still have to do the latest expansion story + the last 10 levels to cap respectively

Hey all, I have a question. I’ve been playing for a few days and I have the free trial for 30 days. I think I’m going to buy the complete edition, which is $29.99. However, it says it comes with 30 days of free play time and also says ” The 30 day free play. Included with purchase can only be applied once to each platform on a single service account. Moreover, this 30 day free play. It is not applicable two platforms on which a license has already been registered.” Does that mean I won’t get the free 30 days of play time since it gave me a free trial to try out the game?
manic flare
i've never summoned my retainer to the FC
remote lintel
theres an outdoor furniture where you can place your retainer
if you dont have one of those then dont mind it
@marsh flower it means when you buy the game you get 30 free days where you dont have to sub

so this message just pops up regardless if i have placed my retainer in the FC?

Nope. The free trial and the free game time are different

u can keep playing on the free trial without a sub?
remote lintel
no
marsh flower
Thank you all, I appreciate it! The free trial has some limits, like I can’t use the market and stuff, so that’s why I thought about buying it early before the trial is over

once you buy the game you cant go back to trial

I’m not too worried about losing the trial, just as long as it didn’t make me lose any progress I’ve made 😅

A friend of mine is saying he keeps getting kicked out of Bardam's mettle, at least he thinks. He hasn't even been able to engage the first boss yet, he's a tank. And what happens is "Well I was standing there, wait to pull the boss (I just like everyone to be in the arena before I do so, was probably like 10 seconds) I was moving around, they wern't. Next thing I know I back by Hien, Lyse and Gosetsu", he's not getting any notification as to what is happening. Just a fade to black.
Any idea what's happening or what he could be doing wrong?

Ala mihgo picked fight with gridania. Get wrecked by elementals. "Autumm war"
Their last king went crazy and executed all the monks because he thinks they are going to overthrow him in a coup (they weren't). Remaining citizens thought that was a good idea and formed a rebellion. Garlean supported the rebels. Rebels overthrew the king. Garlean invaded right after and everybody is sick of fighting and rolled over. Thats how the garleans occupied ala mihgo without a single garlean casualty.
