I remember a Garuda wand lol
Because shields currently serve no purpose for blm
They should just remove all wands and just have BLM start with a staff lol
Tbh lowkey wish we got primal crafted wands for roleplay
I guess for glam and RP purposes sure
Erp?
Is anyone here willing to help me on Aether do BLU spell grinding. I've been in PF and in every town trying to find any level 80s to help grind them out for hours now.
#aether-recruitment
Wasn't sure if that was for FC and statics only
Also it's New Year's Eve. It's understandable that people wouldn't do parties
Nah blu statics are not often a thing
I've been trying for a couple days now XD
Oof
I just want to 100% it's so frustrating that BLU is essentially disliked by the community and I understand the reasons but damn, I just want to play him cuz I do enjoy it lol
Probably try after the holidays end. It's strange, Crystal always has a bunch of blu parties up
Hmm, guess I'm just late / early to the party
The yokai event really revitalized the interest in blus and hasn't died down
I'd assume between that and the grinding fates for relics
Hiya, just bought the game so I'm new; been having issues with my game code though. Has anyone else experienced code already registered errors?
Considering its a new yeats eve the game is packed lol
plently of us with no lives ;)
I bought the game a few days ago, went to put in the code where it says under "Add service account" and it keeps saying "The entered code has already been registered". I just call it an error since it's really weird that minutes after buying it it's apparently used 😦
This was through the official Square Enix shop too, not third party
It's this one: FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION - COLLECTOR'S EDITION [PC DOWNLOAD]
Which is what I'm trying to register
when leveling and doing the MSQ for ARR i am stuck at "A Time to Every Purpose" it say i need to do some quest related to the crystal tower, but when looking up what quest i need to have done, i have already done them.. do i need to do the raids to be able to finish the MSQ for ARR?
Yes
okey so just follow the quests for the raid and i will get to the MSQ after?
No, it's not part of the MSQ questline
It just won't let you progress the MSQ until after you finish them
okey, i am on Syrcus Tower atm so after that i can pick up the MSQ?
@frail loom do you have a screenshot of the error
No, you need to do World of Darkness and finish the whole questline
Did you have a service account existing already
is that after the tower?
It's the 3rd ARR alliance raid
Labrynth of the Ancients, Syrcus Tower, and World of Darkness
And you unlock them all through the Crystal Tower questline
You need to do them all to finish the questline to continue doing the MSQ
okey, tahnks
Here's a pic, it's a fresh account and my first one, when I check info it says nothing has been registered to it.. just a basic account
Hmmm thats strange
If you still have all your purchase history and stuff I'd definitely contact their support
Sure thing I'll send a ticket, just thought I'd ask here first in case anyone was in a similar situation and might know what's up, but thanks for looking anyway! Hope it gets fixed 👍

Is it broken for anyone else or did I get a virus somehow
what happens if i haven't finished arr yet and i buy a hw story skip?
Then you get to level 50 instantly and start hw
A hw skip will skip you past hw
Ok then, level 60 and stormblood
But story skips will not level your job
It brings one job up to the level of the content you're skipping
You will still have to buy a level skip or manual level
It doesn't
does it matter which class my retainer has?
Just you
He's right, dunno what my friend bought that brought him to 70
People typically do one gatherer and one combat job
at what level you can join an fc?
but it doesnt matter which?
Just keep in mind your retainers can't outlevel you in the job you assign them as @pastel star
oh good info
Iirc theres not level requirements to join an fc
Level skip
B rank mob
Only really worth murdering if you have it as a weekly hunt mark
B ranks aren't aggressive either so you can just ignore them
Ok thanks
does double hooking give only 2 fish in the end or can it give more than 2?
tryin to catch some blue crabs, but not sure if the strat is to catch one, then Identical Cast -> Double Hook, or if it's simply more worth to Patience II into Precision hookset
@fresh isle There are special enemies that have weird symbols next to their names (Like that one)-- these are Hunt mobs. They give you special rewards when you kill them, and there are bounties you can pick up at hunt boards to kill certain ones. There's B, A, and S tier.
i assume there are 12 total alexander raid battles? not accounting for the harder mode
Yes
All 8 mans except bahamut has 12 fights
4 per tier
(though coils turn 3 isnt really a fight but it exists)
ic ic
uhh and another question, i noticed i cannot store the welkin set from job quest (ast job 60) so i wonder, in case i'd sell it off to my grand company to make a space, how do i even get that back if i'd want it for glamour? 
since it's not considered a set that i can put into armoire for whatever reason
Centurio seals
ah the hunt stuff
you can put them in an armoire or glam chest
those i cannot, i tried
Not armourie for the 60 set
yeah, just spent some glamour prism and put them in the dresser ^.^
ah ok mb
you can return it back to normal later when you need it
i'll consider it, im kinda stuck without those for now cuz im trying to finish heavensward before i actually redeem my game
so im still stuck without marketboard for a while lol
for prisms
Grand company seals
people get prisms from gc, not mb usually
For prisms
i just wanted to know in case i'd screw up and threw those i can get them back basically
Like 200 seals per prism
Fastest way to level from 79-80 if all dailies are done?
Is it Bozja+Mt. Gulg or just Bozja?
queues say less than 5m but that's often not true
oh right, i know there's emperor alexander fight, are those alexander raids prerequisite for that one or is it completly separate thing?
Like the big winged Alexander?
Yes ultimates aren't related to their original counterparts
Just clear the last savage fight of the tier they were added
ic ic

Okay so my wife and I are trying to play together..we are on same world spriggan but we cant see eachother
Shes on pc and im on ps4
If she JUST created her character then she's in a solo instance
Complete the first few quests and she'll be out
Ohh thanks
@cold steppe On every dungeon grind every equip cause you can give to npc to grand company (1 near another who exchange items fo seals) for make many seals.
is fast method
And good for make seals for buy Ventures for send your retainer to mission
thats what im doing for the most part with gear im not using Zaffira
i just didnt noticed you can actually buy prisms from GC
@limber walrus you can get up to 4 in a cast with double hooking, it depends on what you are farming however, most will only drop 2 at a time
If i started a game as thaumaturge , how fast can I change the class?
level 10
realistically lvl 15 MSQ cuz you wont be able to go to other cities before that via story at least
Well you'll be able to pick up classes in your starting city
ive done a level 1 trek across the cities, picked up every ARR aetheryte
yeah, in starting city, probably not worth the bother from others cuz of the time
its doable, just not easy
you'll get to every city story wise preety early eitherway so if you wanna switch tbh just focus on MSQ
To be clear, you need to do your level 10 job quest to change classes
Just getting to level 10 won’t do anything
Could someone help me identify this top?
You can get crystarium augments from nier coins or hunts
ah ok
may do that then
but still want to do savage tho
any recommendation for savage?
:/ ok
Eden promise savage
I thiiiiink sky pirate stuff. Either a drop or crafted.
ok ty
Wait no, the lunchbox threw me off
Different gloves though
Actually I think the arms are the same but cause of the position of the camera it hides the empty space on the upper arm
does anyone know if I have to start in a prefered server to get the new character exp bonus?
tragic
so with a gathering class and daily maps---are you stuck with whatever map type first shows up, or can you keep trying other nodes till you get a differentn map?
I keep finding gliderskins when im looking for zonure--am I wasting my time?
Bad luck
cool, just making sure
I had to go through 22 nodes once for a zonureskin
You kinda have to pretend you dont need them, and suddenly they'll show up
And you don't have to dig them, just exit out and go to the next
The daily map is only consumed when you gather iy
you can dig something like wind clusters
and then mine othernodes while waiting for it to respawn new nodes
thats what ive been doin, I just wasnt sure if I wass wasting my time going from node to node or if it was like----rolled before I dug the first time and 'set' for the day
good to know
Nodes in a circle reset after looking at the 4th one
oh
is exp in dungeons based on enmity/aggro? so like a tank receives more xp than a healer on avg
or do all classes gain the same xp
as long as they all tag the ads
All the same
If I didnt do the previous ruby weapon etc do I have to do them before emerald ?
I assume yes
I have maxed my totems for the week so dont know what to do
I am ilvl 498 or something should I just buy some more exartic and give savage eden a try ?
I just bought the expansions on Steam, how do I activate them?
the current savage eden need ilvl 500

Might as well give it a go then no point waiting next week for totems
true
rings are fairly expensive still but everything else has gotten cheaper
I think the weapon was only 89k
because you can get ilvl 500 weapon by completing the relic weapon quest
that why the weapon is cheap
What gear was I expected to wear at lv 80 anyway?
Besides the obvious job gear, didn't look like a substantial improvement so I just ignored it
Went in hades with the dwarven set and got my ass handed to me
In general listen to recommended gear
You're expected to have your job gear for the last trial
Any increase is an increase
Especially weapon damage and main stat
the level cap gear is always much better then leveling gear
and level capped dungeons and trials are balanced with that in mind
So I’m a bit confused. I am a lvl 43 Dragoon atm. And if I wanted to keep working this class to 80..and take a new job. How do you level the job if you can only go through the MSQ once? My friend said the jobs start from lvl 1 (unless they are level restricted..like the Red Mage is lvl 50) what’s the way you level a new job?

What are the requirements to getting private chamber in a free company house
Pay 300k
Says 2nd flame Lieutenant
Thats with your grand company
It says I have to have class at level 50 but I am a level 58 samurai
Do I have to have a class that's level 50 that's not my samurai?
Its any
Including samurai?
Yes its a class
Thank you
what are the chances of walking through the rotating laser in emex and be perfectly fine are?
Do you trust server ticks yes or no
Its pretty high tbh at the slimmest point
Not practical but something that definitely doable
i know it's a bit weird question, but which melee class has the most support skills? 🤔
ninja?
Ninja used to have more
probably DRG
But not anymore
Dragoon has 2 buffs with litany and eye
Other melees only have 1
Trick or brotherhood
Monk has mantra and brotherhood
The question was in regards to support skills
True
thanks for the encouragement, gonna do it boldly while bracing for a vuln stack more frequently
wondering if there's a melee equivalent with the same amount of support skills
but i'm asking too much it seems 😂
not really
Why do putting skills make copies in a different section
both are the same hotbar i think lol
seems like you have Hotbar 1 set to Hotbar 2 currently
I have no idea what I'm doing I just bought a mouse so I'm trying to keyboard mode
is white script crafters gear good enough to make grade 4 tinctures of strength?
probably not, without HQ materials
wait
potd is good with exp leveling bc after ur done it transfers to ur current level in game right or
oh wtf ugh
Its good because there's no role requirements thus quick ques
oh ok
Do people queue for HoH to the same degree as PotD?
Regarding multiple shield buffs, in which order are they consumed?

TBN always first. Cataylse always last
Thanks and one last question, is there some key you can mash for ATMs instead of click spamming?
I've been click spamming and the folks in hades seem to break free in about 1/3rd of the time I do
Except enter obviously
W A D S and both mouse clicks will get you through any mash
Though if you do accidently hit enter during your button mashing you're legally obliged to paste the chat
comfortably
what is TBN?
!action The Blackest Night
Creates a barrier around target that absorbs damage totaling 25% of target's maximum HP.
Duration: 7s
Grants Dark Arts when barrier is completely absorbed.
Dark Arts Effect: Consume Dark Arts instead of MP to execute Edge of Shadow or Flood of Shadow
does free company and my grand company matter?
I mean if my Grand one is different from the one of the free company
No
Having just completed mainline shadowbringers, are there any unlockables in the source I should know about, besides job quests?
Strictly to 5.0
Well the relic weapon
suffer
The Twinning, Academia Anyder

They said on the Source
Werlyt Sorrows will be unlocked soon
bozja
Bojza is 5.1
ah
They can at least start the relic line as thats also a requirement for bojza
Where's the starting point for that?
every time i get a level 70 24man in roulette i cry
I seem to have a different experience because most people jump for joy in the chat as soon as they see orbonne flash across the screen
Is there a way to set your emotes so that they don’t broadcast to public, and only show up to the target?
Other than manually typing ‘motion’ after typing the emote (no button)
if everyone in Limsa could do that it would be appreciated
I randomly got into a snowball fight with 3-4 other people in the starlight area. Someone who was not in the holiday spirit said they’re reporting us for emote spam.
If a GM gets that report, would it just be quickly tossed or is it actually investigated?
tossed. that's not even a thing
Confuzzled about Curative magic. The aura seems to symbolize Wind when casting it, but is it Wind or Water? It seems like some Curative Spells are water based yet the actual Cure Spells may be Wind-based?
Blue Mages' cure is called White WIND, so I'm really heavily leaning towards Cure Spells being Wind, but I would like confirmation on that. ^^

at least that's how the wider series classifies it
and the visual representation can kinda be taken with a pinch of salt, because that varies heavily from title to title
take Holy for instance
happy new year EU people!!!
Also I was gonna say... I'm really confused (as a paladin main, trying out white mage), I have all exarchic stuff of Fending and I'm somehow healing MORE, even double hp sometimes, with Clemency, than I do with cure II on white mage with all exarchic stuff (minus the staff)
is Paladin clemency so broken?
the hell
Clemency itself just has really high potency
that's SO wild that I can outheal a white mage
well
it also comes with the payoff that it cripples your dps output if you have to use it
so...
And is a giant resource void
yups.
And usually ending up HP neutral or negative
breaks your combos because it's a spell, and fucks your rotation in various ways
what are fellowships? i joined one. is there like chat or something
They're basically message boards
No chats, only posts in the fellowship window
Message boards
what do you mean HP neutral or negative?
if you're in a situation requiring you to use clemency, you're likely to have lost more health in the process of casting it than you restored
It means yeah you healed, but the mobs are now alive longer thus are gonna deal more damage to you
if not less
Thus negating clemency heal
no...it always heals more in my experience...especially when using requiscat, which makes it insta cast + increased potency
quick paladin tip: avoid clemency at absolutely all costs
no, not quite understanding- because you have not used your MP to kill the enemies
The mobs are now alive longer
ohh
where can i buy gysahl greens in gridania?
Thus they're going to have more time to damage you
Tbus the extra time and damage has negated the clemency
@leaden ginkgo i think the black rabbit trader near-ish the aetheryte
ill have alook. TA
if you have to use clemency at all, make it to save a dps or something
avoid at all costs using it otherwise
let your healer do the healing
'cause you're not doing them any favours by doing it yourself
What do you get from collecting all those ‘???’ Boxes from the Puppets Bunker? The ones which say ‘Lifeform data collected’
nothing, iirc
They're lore
they're just lore snippets
They go into the collection data thing
I see...I have been told a few times to trust the healer...and then died when I did so...I only really use it when I feel like the healer needs a little help, while raising someone...
I guess it's just my experience
situations to use clemency: when shit has seriously hit the fan
any healer would much rather you spend mp on using requiescat properly and speeding up the fight
Okay, I will keep that in mind
because if you're doing your rotation perfectly, iirc you can afford a single clemency in a pinch
any more and you'll disjoint your rotation something horrible
well as a tank, you don't have a choice beside trusting the healer tbh..
your rotation already gets disjointed by any clemency casts
true, you're a gcd out
it goes from 63s to 66, and so on
i'm pretty sure healer also has a learning curve, they need to decide what is their comfort zone..
well in short, clemency is a very attractive concept that should be used in absolutely zero situation ever except absolute emergencies
I am also trying out scholar as well as white mage
and I'm at 74 scholar and can I just say
it's a good habit to get into
it's super different and hard to get used to
scholar benefits from being able to play reactively
If I get my friend the Start Edition and Shadowbringers on Steam, will he have access to HW and SB?
it doesn't have a vast amount of stuff to call on to deal with bad unexpected situations
yes
SB is included with the purchase of ShB
Starter comes with game time too, right?
and HW is starter edition anyway
Starter gives you a month
Ok cool thank you ^_^
Ok so Im a bit lost
where can you get tier 6 materia?
Ive downloaded the starter online edition I have on Steam and I have my CD key however when promted to put in CD key. It states its already used
I am signed in with my square enix account as well that is linked to my steam account
any idea what I should do ?
SB hunts would do it, you could also just spam ghimlyt dark/burn
thx
Tier 6 materia is cheapest on the MB. Otherwise it’s 800 tomes each as I remember
at that point it's cheaper to just get clusters from hunts or so
but in terms of time investment, check your MB prices
I got the 490 crafter gear.. Is there anything better to chase?
I'm not hitting values for crafting new 510 armor
I believe you need to pentameld your 490 with max materia to make 510.
Cool how do I pentameld?
Buy a lot of +Control and +CP level 8 and level 7 materia. About 100 each.
Sounds expensive 😭
It is!
I got about 2.7 million so I'm poor
I spent about 2million per a melding all crafters
The market on 510 gear has dropped to the point where it’s not worth it
150k each for most.
Boi
which path for companion is good for a pugilist
alright than nvm thanks anyways guys. you all have a good day just not ment to be i guess
When it was 400k, it was easy money
I still need an income stream
It takes about 80k worth of materials to make 510
I found that selling the gathering materials is more profitable. Harvest the ephemeral botany/mining nodes. Each unit goes for about 1k
Anyone know why https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki isn't loading >_<
As opposed to crafting the mat, which only sells for 20k and takes 4 units
I wanna know where to find the Blue Mage quest dude is
Idk what the means
And 20 tomes
That's kind of the biggest issue I have with youtube Gil making guides is they throw a bunch of terms that I don't know what they mean lol
For example Dolomite. Sells for 1k each. You can craft an ingot which takes 4 Dolomites and 20 tomes, and sell that I got for 20k. The 510 gear take 4 of those ingots and sells for 150k.
Pooh
And those 20 tomes are hard to get
Tomes of Allegory
I have 1772 of those
So in short, just harvest the dolomite and sell it. Takes less time and effort
You’ll need pentamelded aestete gear to make the ingot
So I'm back to square one then cuz I'm too poor to pentameld
Yeah, so your best option is to just constantly harvest and sell the Dolomites, etc
For 1k each
Each harvest, you should get about 20
Is there any requirement to unlock a 30 job other than 30 in the required class and all job quests completed?

Oh there is? How far?
Past slyph management
Oh shit ok
Are there fireworks at midnight in FF XIV for New Years? If so where are they? 😄
No
Is this version of WT still a thing? And if so, how do you unlock it?
What's the difference between d hit and determination?
Be 80
How can I change this?
Too big and in the middle of the screen, it is annoying, Tried to change HUD, it is not there
Ah okay thank you
DH increases chance to direct hit, which does flat 25% damage increase...det is a minor damage and healing increase
How would I kno a direct hit prompts
It has a larger font
If you mean the rewards, then no. All that specific stuff are now exchanged with the commendations that are earned from x amount of lines
Than regular
What does running a map mean
Treasure maps
And how you you get those
Ohhhhhhh
“Increase chance to DH”; If you fail at a Direct Hit, what do you get?
Nothing
Ok
A normal hit
A miss?
Direct hits are just mini critd

what should I get with Allagan Tomestone of Poetics when I don't need armor?
Can I exchange them for another currency and possibly get a mount with it?
!faq poetics
ty
i bought a mount from the mogstation but its not showing up ingame. how long does it take? ive relogged already
If it was account wide it takes around an hour for me
If it was character specific I usually get it within 10-15 minutes
Try pressing the “Reward/Purchase Delivery Request” button on the mail menu
i'm trying to complete the "i make this look good" achievement, which asks that you speak to the achievement npc whilst wearing a full set of gc gear. idk if i'm doing sth incorrectly or not but i'm speaking to him n nothing's happening?
You may also need to empty out your inbox to make room
@sterile flower For Tomes, Buy stuff to desynth or trade for seals. Or, you can buy unidentifiable ore, trade it for soil, and sell the soil, which gets about 1k each, but sells slowly
@lunar quartz is that the very first set of GC gear in the first section of the GC vendor?
The ones specifically called “grandcompany Soldier’s Cap” and so on?
Achievements like that can be very picky in having the exact gear needed
oh... zoinks
Do I need a bought copy of the game to enter my friends referral-code in my mog-account, or is it enough to just have the account?
it's the officers gear from the last section of items you unlock
Need the base game registered
Who is the person writing to you who’s from the Drowning Wench?
Baderon, most likely
The ones from the adventurer’s guilds are heavily implied to be the leaders/owners
Why is it telling me I have insufficient space in my armory chest to equip any of my weapons? It looks like I have plenty of open slots
Your other slots are full
When swapping jobs, you unequip everything
So make sure every armoury slot had space
Especially rings
I have plenty of open slots in every category
could you double check? If you have at least one slot available in every category (including offhand) and two in rings, you should be fine
Part of my fascination with ffxiv is all jobs on one character. At what point does it make some amount of sense to begin going alt wild?
for majority of people, never honestly
alts are mostly to play with other friends on different data centers
but even then thats a rare case
Unless you mean alt jobs, I suppose
Sorry, bad terminology. I meant alt jobs
many people in that case do level everything
its just a matter of when and if you want to do it at top speed or take your time
if you find yourself vastly outleveling the MSQ quest you are currently on (easy to do on a preferred server, less easy but possible without) it may make "sense" to start a second job
Ahh, okay
although the real answer is whenever you want to 🙂
Could someone who is savvy in temporary account suspensions please PM me? I just have a question about an ongoing issue 😕
when do i know i made it to heavensward?
Ishgard
?
When you enter the city of ishgard
when the MSQ lets you enter Ishgard, that's when HW begins
There will also be a cinematic with the words “HEAVENSWARD” right on the screen
in other words, you'll know 😛
I just beat the ultima weapon. is that endgame or heavensward?
ultima weapon is the end of 2.0
you have to get through all of the 2.1-2.55 MSQ before you get to heavensward
Does anyone have a macro for visors and changing class, like when I utilize the AST welkin hat it default turns the visor on, but I want a macro that allows me change class and turn it off immediately
And crystal tower too now
yes that too
oooh ok so thats how i get all the other trials and stuff right?
yes
Uh iirc yes
Ultima Weapon also unlocks the Crystal Tower quests too IIRC
Visor setting should save with the gear set. Try putting it to your desired setting and then update the gear set
And CT is integral to the story in SHB so you’ll see it pay off and ||meet the creator of the crystal tower||
You’ve to talk to someone in Mor Dhona iirc
yes
but you can't do that until you beat Ultima
thatll give me the extreme ones too right or am i ginna have to do the blue quest? cause my ass missed a lot of those.
can i get the other one later?
EX are bluequests
ight bet
@nimble holly you can buy the other with tickets at the Ushi Shonin
i jsut saw ty!

Would I be OK as a solo player
use it on cooldown, always
It does damage its good
ok ty
I just didnt know with delay caused by doing the dance if it was a bit slower
appreciate it
Its like a 4s total
As a new player is there anything I should buy or train that will help?
Nah. Crafting and gathering classes are completely optional. You can do endgame content just fine without ever unlocking them
So porters are flight paths?
yes, essentially
if this is a WoW comparison however, porters are quickly overtaken by teleport
which is like having a hearthstone to anywhere, only with a bit of a charge
the charge becomes irrelevant once you've got your footing however, it's practically pocket change
Am I missing something or is the recommended gear thing broken?
It looks at whatever gives you the most main stat
Wild guess, but might this be related to an item that takes up multiple slots?
some low level chest items do that
I am wearing a robe, but it's also with pants
uhh, yep
robes are just chest items
they don't tend to overlap legs slot
sometimes they overlap the head slot
yeah it overlaps the helmet though
the only multi-piece items are the bulky robes which eat up a headpiece slot and chest slot, and the glam items which do the same. (only pieces which do so are the Snowman and Ghost outfits from old events)
can i use this indefinitely?
99 uses
And the tin can armours
Hey I would like the question the best way to level up a DPS from level 70 to 80
those are infinite
Infinitely
oooh
If it doesn't have a number of uses, then its unlimited
@blazing plover roulettes > dungeons > Bozja
@slate arrow ty
?
i can use it 3 times then?
No
the actual item themselves are consumed into your duty actions when used from your holster
when it's in your holster, that's how many you're carrying
when it's in your duty actions menu, it's then pulling from Available
Level up > grind out the action gems > turn in
(well, rank up, in this case)
(most of them are behind rank requirements)
Different mobs in bojza have a physical or magic vulnerablity
Magitek/robot mobs are weak to magix
So casters/people with spellforge do more damage to them
25% more
damn
i believe the bosses in castrum lacus have randomised resistances
There's not too many physical weak mobs in bojza
but i may be misremembering
Nah they're set
The second boss is weak to physical
yeah, i cleared it 4 times week 1 and then never again lol
Where do I exchange tomes of phatasmagoria?
eulmore
mor dhona
Oh shit sorry yes
Mor Dhona
revelation?
Who at in Mor Dhona?
Auri... Something
auriana
iirc.
or at least one of the npcs in her vicinity
check around if it isn't
Allegory and Revelation you spend in Eulmore
Its the poetic girls in mor dhona
The one that sells gear
this fucker wont let me leave
Right click the hp bar
rightclick the health bar in top middle
Reset enmity
reset enmity
It was a semi recent change to dummies
oddly they made it so you could reset enmity on dummies, but took away being able to 'outrun' them
huh
or at least you can move out of range of combat on them but it's an impractically long way
ok in mor dhona
oh you exchange phantasmorgia for allegory
where do i exchange those?
You use allegory in eulmore
Eulmore
For 490 gear or mats
This
revelation too?
Third times a charm in Bozjan - do you need a team? I tried to go there solo and just got destroyed
You can solo just dont pull mobs over rank 3 unless you have good actions
A bloodsucker warrior can pull everything in sight and live
For example
I'm a PLD and figured it'd be ok but didn't work out at all
do i need to do the triad primals EX trials as well for the void questline?
Having Bloodsucker on helps stay alive but you'll need cooldowns for rank 3 and offensive actions to help kill them
Ravana and Bismark EX, basically every quest that The white robe boy gives
Note that Bismarck and Ravana are the only ones that need to be completed
The rest (Sephirot/Sophia/Zurvan) simply just need to be unlocked

Craft them (level 50 alchemist) or buy them from the marketboard
could someone tell me why sometimes the "need" option is not available for me for loot in dungeons?
the need option is only there if the gear is specifically for the job you're running the dungeon as
It’s not for your job
If its intended for your job you can need
You might have seen some dragoon gear
yeah i am dragoon
Then
Some ARR gear is wack and say dragoon can wear it but its intended for tanks
You can need dragoon gear.
that makes sense vinyl
What was the piece of gear exactly
Other way around.
i dont remember, happened multiple times though
Well yeah but you get it
Some dragoon gear is also equippable by tanks
But it’s intended for dragoons and dragoons can need on it
alright, thank you
There much to this year's Heavensturn event? Gotta do a FATE or anything?
Just fate and quest
whats a good DoH that I can use to just passively make a bit of gil.
I mean. I kinda imagine its any of them but idk
Fate gives you tickets to buy itens from the event shop but 1 gold basically gets you everything
Do you need to do the FATE for the helmets?
Yes
Yes, again you do it for the quest and 1 gold ranking gives you all you need
You get 1 helmet from the quest and the othet you buy for 5 ticket. Gold rank gives you 10
Housing item is 3
@vast torrent no conclusive answer, as each server’s market is different and there’s lots of small potential pockets of items to make for good profit
For most of the crafters you can craft the items that are requested for levequests and sell those on the marketboard for somewhat consistent profit
Can I retain Hidden status as NIN to do Trick Attack, even after the Tank has pulled?
Not viably.
do white mages have class specific armor sets or weapons or is it just basically conjurer stuff?
Deals water damage with a potency of 600.
Additional Effect: Grants Suiton
Duration: 20s
Suiton Effect: Allows execution of actions which require the effect of Hidden, without being under that effect
Mudra Combination: Ten→Chi→Jin or Chi→Ten→Jin
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
Oh, I'm dumb lol
Jobs which come from base classes still use gear with the base class name on it
NIN starts easy, but it started getting complex the higher my levels went
Needless to say, NIN sure as hell requires more skillful play
There are job-specific sets at each level cap
As a white mage you still gain “conjurer exp” and equip “conjurer‘s arms”
Because you are a conjurer with a fancy stone equipped.
Just a result of how the job system was originally designed.
Hi, I'm new to the game, I just capped my Allagan poetics, any recommendation on how I should spend those?
I wish Soul Stones weren't even equippable items, just force us into the Job. It's painful when I see pre-req classes in high end duties
Spend Poetics on Augmented Ironworks Magitek gear, for your class
!faq poetics
You can enable a setting in party finder to exclude base classes
Which will then stay on forever
should i start collecting relic stuff now or I should just do gear?
No need to click it every time
Non-80 relics are for glamour
whats the drop rate on orchestration scolls? I've solo'd this dungeon like 20 times and it hasnt dropped once.
The grind is too much, and the weapons don't look that good, aside from Last Resort Zeta
Or Ragnarok Zeta
my MSQ is at lvl 50, but i'm approaching 60, should I just buy Shire?
Shire isn't available until you beat HW
You need to complete the MSQ of each expansion to buy its respective Tome Gear
ah ok, so might as well use it for i130 gear
Nah, if you get to 60, just buy the crafted gear
are those expensive? like on the market board?
Most dungeon orchestrion rolls feel around 5-10% drop rate from my personal farming of rolls
i also started my squadron, can I use that gear to give it to them?
Tomestone gear isn’t tradeable
And squadrons don’t use gear for stats, they scale according to their level
is the ff14 consolegameswiki being weird for everyone else?
the chrome addon shit i mean
Do resistance weapons look different with each upgrade or is it just stats + a glow effect?
@jade lava use ublock instead of adblock
no glow until recollection
The first upgrade makes the weapon dyeable
hey rather important question, is the FFXIV wiki site destroyed for anyone else? if I go onto it, a bunch of adware/fake firefox updates start popping up
The next Resistance Weapon step is expected to change the model of the weapon into a new one, maybe with a glow too
@lavish rivet
but yeah it is
Consolegameswiki is a pretty meh site all around, I recommend Gamerescape for general wiki usage if needed
alright so the site got attacked noted
so the consensus is if I won't get to end of Heavensward soon, I should just buy ironworks stuff
i was just trying to check how far into the MSQ i was but then got absolutely assaulted LMAO
Ironworks is still useful for heavensward leveling, as you can’t get shire gear until level 58 in the story
would you recommend I grind for more poetics to make sets for each job?
lmao same
I don’t recommend intentionally grinding out entire sets due to the high cost per set, but it’s something you can steadily work towards with the poetics from daily roulettes
thanks wynne, this is driving me crazy
sounds like a plan, thanks

You alternate, as Twin Snakes gives a damage buff
Use twin snakes when the timer is going to fall off
is there a ui for monk positionals that i can toggle in game
i can't remember which monk attacks do more damage in rear v flank
and i dont want to keep looking at tooltip in middle of battle
no
can i pick up samurai job at 50 no matter what class I am now?
keep practicing and you will develop muscle memory
can help to put all flank abilities on one hotbar row and all rear abilities on another
or something like that
Any job can unlock Samurai, yes.
do samurai get class specific armor ? so they can look as a true samurai ? 😄
yes
cool!
can you get other sets?
yes
cool!
as you do more class quests
awesome
how bad is the grind 35-50
samurai starts at level 50
its not been bad at all to 35
oh i see what u mean
ya
it's slower than 1-35
meaning does it get much harder to lvl 40 +
i did 35 lvls in like 3.5 days
even without the powerful double exp buff, u can do it in one night
how do u get double exp buff?
create character on preferred server
what's a preferred server and how does that effect your other characters if at all?
!help preferred
what's your datacenter @drowsy stream ?
!preferred crystal
Preferred server gives you double exp up to lv70 on all jobs
if you made ur character on one of these serverse, u get double exp
wellp... i'm on goblin so out of luck
It’s not an overly vital buff in terms of your first class, as the story already gives tons of experience
again u dont need it, it's still pretty fast leveling 35-50
ya not worried about it... just wondering
if u do these dungeons in order: sunken temple of qarn -> cutter's cry -> stone vigil -> dzemael darkhold -> aurum vale
you can get from 35 to 50 in a few hours
without the buff
The buff basically makes levelling alts less tedious
im actually grinding out monk right now from 35
yea if u have healer/tank job
well im white mage
it will take 2-3 hours
with dps, it will take twice as long
now if i did do that through dungeons do i need to finish white mage quest or main quest story to get samurai?
no need to finish
cool
i may just do that
Is crafting worth it these days? (I say as a free trial newb)
for a trial user, crafting can be kind of painful
U know what i mean yeah that
since you won't have access to retainers
A what
basically your bank/auctionhouse
retainers are npcs that you customize which give u extra inventory space as well as selling stuff for you
Eh i get the auction house thing to prevent spam .
so you don't have anywhere to store excess materials or dump off stuff you make
also generally recommended to wait to level crafters/gatherers until you're max lvl
retainers can also gather crafting materials for you
since its a lot easier to level them when you're already capped and have a lot of things already unlocked
I'm not a pc guy. But i tried on my cousins computer. I'm having trouble using movement and oressing keys at the same time. Making me do some crazy motion to do both plus targeting
How u yuys do it
guys
By changing hotkeys to have skills of buttons that are more easily accessible
You can also plug a controller in if you want
Playing ninja on console
Is very doable
Is the stealth thing kinda pointless in the overworkd
Console brethern. How do u use macros in your gameplay
You dont
Macros are never the option in 99% of situations
Combat macros, exception to raise and target macros for skills like Shukichi, are extremely bad
I was looking to get back into the game. I have the base game but haven't bought any expansion packs. Would it be best to just buy the complete edition on Steam that is on sale currently for 29.98?
I mean hey its a sale
Just buy Shadowbringers
I mostly use macros for placing ground-based skills
I hate having to manualy click the ground skill
So why are the xpansion options a thing
Plus you cant use complete edition if you already own thr base game
Do I need Heavensword?
@strong saddle ones like these are ones I mainly use
You can also have a version that uses <me> instead to have it target yourself
Shadowbringers will give you stormblood and Shadowbringers
Are 3rd upgrade resistance weapons considered the current best?
The i500? Not the best weapons
That's as far as the Resistance weapons can be upgraded so far, yes
They are not the best weapons available in the game.
They'll get another upgrade in 5.45
Which is prooooooobably like February
Maybe late January at the earliest
How is red mage for a new player? Is it easy to leadn
Its one of the easier jobs
learn
Imo RDM are between the easiest jobs in the game, together with WAR, WHM and SAM
Cast shortcast spells > dualcast the long cast time spells > repeat until you have enough gauge for melee combo and repeat
Rdm is the second easiest job in thr game...dancer takes that title
I heard there's a spell that makes your vero spells instant cast. Plus an ability called acceleration
dualcast, yeah
Dualcast
it's the central mechanic of the job
makes the next spell you cast instant
Every second spell you cast is instant
lotta fun
Dualcast lets every other spell instant cast
you always have it
Also do i have to log into my squenix account before logging into my ffxiv account after a reinstall
'cause it really doesnt want to send the pass reset to my email lol
Check spam
done that
Refresh?
only options i have are set up account or register free trial
or rather, i possess an account
or dont
but my passwords dont wanna work
reset through mogstation 😎
yeaahh still not showing up
Gy
