That cannot place a macro on the bar, though
replace action with blueaction, item, emote etc as necessary
I don't think there's a command for that
If I'm doing side quests while doing the MSQ will I overlevel the content?
I do
you definitely will get to level 50 sooner than expected but until you're 80 you don't have to worry about levels
Plus, it just means you can unlock the expansion jobs sooner for level overflow
Okay, so I shouldn't bother switching classes or anything in order to even out the exp a bit?
You can level two jobs side by side with msq, while keeping up the armoury bonus
you don't have to
What is the armory bonus?
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
Tldr bonus xp on kills for jobs under your highest level job
I see, so realistically I can pick two classes that interest me to level while doing MSQ
cool, maybe I'll do healing and a dps class then
So with the buff you can do multiple
Will it mess me up much if I decide to do a DoW and a DoM? Should I just stick to two DoM classes?
Which is second coil of Bahamut, yes?
I mean just gear wise
Like I won't have trouble getting gear for both classes will I?
No. Omega 4 savage
Oh
Dungeons will mostly keep you up to date...story keeps you up to date for first job
I see
I see, thanks for the info
Oh
TEA: The Epic of Alexander
Yes
10-15 minutes fights, but can take weeks to practice
The lv70 ones, bahamut and ultima are abit more lenient with gear and job changes
Are there any mechanics in savage / ultimate where you have to pop invuln or die?
Like, no way to mitigate sufficiently, at all
But you still need to respect mechanics
With proper cooldown usage no, but invulns are heavily used to save cooldowns and healer resources
Tank Invuln is usually used as a way to be economic with your other defensive skklls
Invulns are just your best cooldowns
Cost vs reward
You COULD mitigate all 4 hits of Umbra slash normally but that requires strong mitigation and heals inbetween
Or just invuln lul
How is the pug scene for e12s
There is no "you must use invuln here" mechanics
"wait its all door boss prog, always has been" probably
it's like 8 followed by a series of numbers. I assumed it might have been because how i already have the free version
Is there a way to disable that box?
I only really have the hotbar there to show me what my cooldowns are ._.
It's so that I don't have to look at my actual hotbar
Ty
oh
only works if you disconnect that box from your mouse
I forget what setting it is for that
I want the box to not show when hovering
It would be preferable to just not have a usable hotbar there
@slate arrow it's that option
If you ever need to know the knowledge XD
👌
Hmmm
This will be annoying tho
Ugh
It's gonna not let me see what duty related skills do
I recommend changing the position and placing it somewhere that's not covering important stuff
The drop down menu
You can change it so that action help isn't connected to your cursor and in a set position
Which you can move in hud editor
Resize and all
My issue is that it's super distracting
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I don't find it distracting where I put it but that's just me
you can also resize it and junk
Well its either have it on...and place it somewhere out of the way or turn it off for all actions...can't turn it off for specific things
Yeah...
:(
I have the skills in the middle of the screen
So I mouse over them a ton >_>
I dont believe the option is macroable to create a toggle so

Pick your poison really

Hello everyone. I wanna get back to ffxiv after half a year but im having problems downloading it. Once i download it and login i get this. Where am i supposed to download it from?
You need the full launcher
Since you already own the game
you'll also need to pay for a sub
Steam or Standalone?
standalone
Tysm
man, how long is dragonsong?
3.1 to 3.3
About 30 quests, give or take
Each expansion patch gives about 10 quests, give or take
however, said quests cutscenes are much longer
you need 4 people in the fc to buy an fc house right?
There's no member requirement to buy an FC house. Just a requirement to make the FC in the first place.
We can only do 3 quests. for each Beast Tribe a day right?
yes
Quick question. in the online store whats the difference between the $25 tales of adventure stormblood and the tales of adventure 2 for a specific class?
You need 4 members and be a rank 6 fc to purchase an fc house
thx
lol
What rotation would a level 63 scholar be looking to do? Sorry if this is vague but I really don't know where to begin in this mass of skills.
Have you been just kinda winging it up to 63?
I'm returning after about a year away.
Yeah. That sale was hard to pass up lol.
oh yea, the half off FF sale
I bought final fantasy 4, after years, 5, 6, 8, and 9 with that lol
I just entered a pvp duty finder thinking it was a dungeon -_-
oooof
just unlocked the moogle beast tribe as a 62 wvr, but the quests can't be completed today. the message is "No daily beast tribe quests accepted prior to today may be active." What does this mean?
You must complete all beast tribe quests grabbed on a previous day to get more
Or abandon them
One skips ONLY story (and some other stuff like flying and crystal tower) . The other ONLY levels you (and does your job quests)
fairly sure I have no beat tribe quests active
and I JUST unlocked moogle, so haven't touched their repeatables
It includess beast tribes from other tribes
oh I do have ixal quests active >.<
Gotcha i had seen that after googling. So if i want to come back and go right into shadowbringers without having to do any old stuff i have to buy the expansion the pack to skip quests and the character boost correct?
Yes
Alright thanks for the help
damn, if only the error was easier to understand. just warped to gridania lol
thanks :)
lol that feeling when you accidently que up for pvp and win the round ;_;
What do the red pins on the map mean?
whats the limit on how many times a week i can redo a trial/dungeon to get loot?
like if i wanted a set of armor can i just spam it?

Dungeons never have loot limits
There's only weekly loot limits to current endgame raids, IE eden promise raids
And the new nier raid being added in 5.5
oh so just endgame stuff that i have to wait for
Yes
nice ty
there's going to be another Nier raid?
the last one yes
Am I missing something or does Scholar not have a fairy in PvP?
any max fishers online in malboro that can help me with something 😄
Any tips on the stone vigal boss mechanics?
Normal or hard and which boss?
hard cuca fera
Ah the tortoise boss
nvm dead lol
Yes. There's always 3 24mans per expansion which come in the major odd patches (X.1, X.3 and x.5)
everyone sits on the cannons
use the normal shot (1) on the boss and adds
use the electric/stun shot (2) on the boss when it charges its big aoe attack
don't shoot it when it's shield is up
It's always in my best interest to target another player for nascent flash, correct?
Only just realized glint doesn't apply to the caster
Are Poetic allagan tomestones useful beyong level 50?
poetics are used for up to level 70 gear, and the first step of the level 80 relic
cause i know you can buy 130 gear. but idk where id get like lvl 60 gear
Idllyshire?
You can buy level 60 ilvl 270 gear in Iddlyshire. Unlocked via the Heavensward MSQ
ah IC
Do you think Roe MCHs just punch their bullets really hard? That's probably more powerful than the actual gun they use.
Hello, i was wondering what the best place to find a free company is
or to search for one, atleast
/shout in limsa, Community Finder on the FFXIV website, or ask a friend
Or Ul'dah if you are on Balmung
is there a level boost item or anything that doesnt like, complete all of my story
No.
FFXIV Online Store
because i saw the one heros journey thing but i want to play the story too
You can only level + story boost, not one or the other.
Up to Beginning HW, Beginning Stormblood, or Beginning Shadowbringers
Level boosts are seperate from the story boosts
I dont mind completing the msq i just want to level up jobs
Man, that kinda sucks
why would you sell a story skip AND a level boost on the same package, people play mmos for the story too lol
So should i be worrying about relic weapons as someone trying to relearn the game and get to 80 asap.
Because Job quests in this game give Job Abilities so you can't be a level 70 Monk and really know how the Job plays without all the associated abilities.
you can buy job boosts
only if you want the shiny
and still play through the story
Does anyone know where I can accept the second coil of bahamut quest line?
Relic weapons are more for aesthetic this late in the expansion. Otherwise the 50/60/70 ones are just for the Glam.
there are no job boosts apparently though.
They are talking about the Job quests.
wait
So what weapons should I be going for then?
job quests or MSQ
everyone please stop
too many cooks spoils the pot
So, what's the question about, Jobs or Story skip?
yes
alright i get it now thanks
these are the story skips
Is there a list of micons anywhere?
job skips are on sale rn but idk for how much longer if you were really interested in that
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/text_command/e6e219e1adc/ this tells you the catagories of icons you can use but not a full extensive list of every one
theres some older reddit posts about it but i dont know how accurate they are
Darn. Can I use menu items as Icons? like sound settings?
I dont know what that would fall under in categories
I don't think so.
Alright, thanks
you can put them on your hotbar if thats what you mean
Naw, I was looking for the icon itself for a couple bars
Are there any free company for recruits on omega...
so im in idylshire and im seeing this totem exchange. Where do i get these totems?
depends on the totem, but some come from the heavensward extreme trials
and one of them is from The Epic of Alexander (Ultimate)
isnt that one of the hardest fights?

yes
oh how lovely
Can i download FF14 through steam and play on my normal account or does steam create a new account?
wow that sucks im guessing the standalone has a higher pop then since its been around a lot longer?
ah ok you just mean you cant link accounts
misunderstood that as they had their own servers sorry
no problem. only China and Korean have their own seperate "servers"
everybody else plays together (PS3/PS4/PC)
ohright PS5 exists. 
oh really its crossplay with playstation? didnt know that actually
all same servers
only "feature" PSN gets is the ability to view other's PSN IDs
in fact you don't even need Playstation Plus, just an FFXIV sub
Sorry for the barrage of questions lol but is it normal for the game to be downloading at like 1.16 megabytes/sec? My download speed is a lot higher.
Cant remeember if it was this slowe the last time i downloaded it
remember*
Gonna take like 14 hours to download at this rate
that's normal, for the most part
Wonder if it would be quicker to download the steam version and move the files over to where they should be for the standalone. Unless steam just downloads the launcher
i have no idea if thats possible but you can try asking google. i sure others had the same idea
i know you can trick steam to use your free trial files to "install" your full version files
steam only downloads the launcher as well
everything is via the launcher more or less
ah that sucks. luckly i work tomorrow morning so i will just let it download overnight and into tomorrow. you all have been helpful. Thanks again
Both Steam and the FF14 downloader throttle you.
Does setting party effects to the lowest possible also hide stuff like healer barriers?
I did it for the sake of hunt trains since 'Simple' was still too blinding in the larger trains, but the healer complained I ran out of the barrier this last dungeon for honestly I saw nothing
If you turn them off completely yes
If you just set party effects to limited it should still be bearable and allow you to see healer bubbles
Is there a button that toggles on/off party effects?
Or do you manually have to do it through the menu?
Need some advice pulling as a warrior, for some weirder pack shapes I face this conundrum of a) I need overpower + tempest to hit all of them, b) I can wait for them to gather up a bit nicely into a cone then overpower, but risking lousy party members who keep running forward and taking aggro thinking I can pull without stopping like PLD/GNB
You can set a macro: /bfx party simple, /bfx other simple
Overpower early, and keep running, if you missed any, your healer will probably bring them to you on the next stop
And all instead of simple to turn them back on
Is Chocobo breeding only for racing? Or can you make your Chocobo faster running around town?
Just Racing
You can upgrade universal mount movement speed, but it is not worth the effort
Because flying beats walking

I was racing Chocobos in residential Mist, and my Chocobo was slower than everyone else’s. This might be an issue when we’re all running to buy housing
He said I should train my Chocobo
Wiki no help
That’s not correct
Only way to get speed ups in housing zones is to do MSQ progression
You get speed upgrade in residential areas really early in the MSQ
If you’ve finished ARR then your chocobo wasn’t slower
Need riding maps?
r u allowed to trade with yourself with two separate characters?
yes, but you'll need someone or something in the middle, like the FC chest or a person
There are no riding maps for residential areas
🦃
When you complete base ARR you get one-star speed
There is no two-star speed in housing districts so that’s it
so I give my stuff to a third person, then have that person give the items to my other character?
yes
Do certain mounts go faster than others?
where am I gonna find someone like that tho oops
No
thanks tho
Cloud’s motorbike (SDS Fenrir) mount goes at one-star speed by default even if you haven’t progressed the MSQ far enough in that area
But that’s not relevant to this case
if you post screenshots of mods on social media can you get banned
what to buy with tomestone of allegory and revelation besides gear?
Crafting material
thank you
If you buy a mogstation outfit, can you put it in the Armoire or does it have to go in the glamour dress or?
Yo
@gloomy mortar depends on the outfit
Free Trials can't attend weddings right?
some of them can go in the armoire like past seasonal outfits
@scarlet shoal you have no way of getting an invitation so no
maybe
is the cryptlurker gear good?
Where is the button to make your party public in the party finder? I can’t see it
parties are public by default?
One thing I found is that if I keep mashing overpower at mobs that are running towards me, sometimes the overpower animation just cancels and I'm just thrown off, because now I'm running backwards trying to overpower it off the healer
If you cast ‘Target to Ignore’ on a player not in your party, do they see it?
I just got wyrm armor and its a higher ilevel but my defense numbers are so low
It's like the mobs know who they want to aggro before I ever get the chance
And with how the game snapshots I guess me running in one direction and mobs the other, the cone intersection check is running off of a whole set of different positions than what I visually see, but I have no way of predicting it
Bats from qitana are a good example
Also, is there a setting where you can put a target on the tank so it’s easier for the healer to know where they are in a hunt train, and not have him see it?
Nope. I’ve been mark as a non-tank...due to dying in raids too much. But I see it. I laughed at it and felt ashamed at the same time.
lol
Melee do bad parse and range is meta right

what no
Does higher Umbral Ice further speed up MP regen?
May I ask why for 40-59, you start with B3 instead of T3? Since you’ll be going F3 for your 3rd skill regardless, isn’t the MP regen solely for T3?
The MP regen won’t recover the MP lost from F3 right?
It's to build good habits due to Enochian and Polyglot
Serious question, I heard the english VA gets better after ARR but is it still worse than the Japanese VA?
!action Foul
The sooner you can get Enochian up, the sooner you can use Foul/Xenoglossy
that's honestly a personal preference, but i think the VAs after HW are extremely well done for english
ditto
like ARR's are pretty bad because its americans doing fake/psuedo british accents
Alright. Thanks!
HW+ Vas are actual british people
(small fun fact, ARR Raubaun is also the ShB main theme singer)
Ohyeah
Maybe I'll just try out both and see which I like more.
Enochian gives more dmg% which applies to thunder
oh yeah
I forgot about enochan 👀
+10% iirc
5 first then 10 later iirc
can I play with my friends if we're on the same data center but not the same world
yes
Yeah
!faq worldvisit
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
but you can't be in the same free company
free company is the guild system right?
yes
Yeah
yes
can I still raid and do dungeons and stuff in non free company party's
yes
You can make a party via the friends list or party findee
Party Finder is generally pretty good at accepting anyone, you don't need a fixed group for much content
And then queue up together
especially since the Hard (Savage and Ultimate) content are based around 8 people
awesome thanks for the help everyone
There's no need for massive groups of people since Alliance Raids are at worst about as hard as Normal Mode Raids (Story Raids) sometimes leaning into Extreme Trials (In between Story Mode and Savage)
So I haven't played in a few months, left off somewhere in Stormblood, is there a good way to recap on the story? I don't remmeber much
Your Quest Journal should be good enough, for the most part
my FC just reached rank 4 and unlocked gear customization. What does that even mean?
Some armors have a spot to let you put FC emblem

Can I replay story quests to get the other weapons or armour for Glamour?
is that part of the NG+ feature?
Oh, that's convenient as well.
or buy them from the market board
thanks much
or even buy from vendors
Yea, I suppose I'll just have to look for weapons I liked later.
as they come up.
question, when I start a dungeon and ate a food for that 3% exp boosts and the duration ended, do i eat another food or does the effect of the previous food affects until the dungeon end?
I would assume you have to eat another.
Eat another
okey thanks!
is there level 50 crafter scrip gear?
Nope
no, but your gc sells a few pieces of the lvl50 artisan gear but best way is get to 51/52 and get the first heavensward set/gear
hey just finished the paladin quest line and i was wondering if there will be a way to get this valor armour for lvls 60 and up or is it just for lvl 50
If you want to keep looking like that
if there's a shop selling price, you can buy them from calamity salvager 🤔
Just glamour
how does clamor work do i have to keep the set or i can just use what ever set i already had
You need to keep Valor to use it as a fashion component
you gotta put the set that you have into a glamour dresser by using glamour prism
'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'
Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.
'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'
Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

yes the dungeons tell you how much you get
50 per dungeon

oh i was looking at the bonus nvm
you dont get fc credits for making collectables do you?
nope, you get scrips

Fc credits are gained passively as you do stuff in game
So you should get them through crafting
ehh think its jsut hq crafts that give fc credits, thanks guys
i just checked and crafting a collectable gave me 105 fc points
Oh sorry, I thought you meant GC seals
@silver ruin
oh ok
thanks
time to craft like 1k then
that is a housing item hes standing infront of
They're modded, the only wings obtainable in game are the angel wings from the gold saucer
Ohh
Nevermind 
either that or mods, but that looks real similar to a housing item i saw recently
and i can tell hes in a house because i recognize that tree
and the windows
whats the point of Bozjan Southern Front
yea ok that might actually be a mod, for some reason nothings coming up, but is2g there was a housing item like it, anyway the only wings ingame are the angel wings
besides resistance weapons
alternative leveling zone

which levels do u go there for?
71-80
it'll also be necessary to do the castrum normal mode to get to the final area added/continue the story for resistance weapons
that would explain it, i think i chucked one out when i bought my large is where i think i saw it
thanks guys
Why are msq now giving me only 4.8k exp?
you're probably in patch quests, those aren't suppose to level you
once you get to the next expansion quests they'll give you good exp again
uhh you can pick up dungeon gear and stuff but generally no
for resistance weapon to upgrade them, do you have to do bozja zone or can it be done outside of it?
if you're in 70 shire gear then you can just get dungeon drops
can bedone outside of it
how?
heavensward fates give the memories, specific types for each zone
!faq memoryfates
a gold medal in the fate guarantees 1
alternative way of doing it/leveling
do you need specific rank to undertake the quest tho?
what do you mean?
Each memory only drops in a specific zone in bozja
In this case you need rank 8 (I think) to be able to access the final zone
^ thats correct
But once there assuming you can get a few parties together you can high speed farm all 3 + more fairly quickly
yea in reality if you can throw a party together and start whaling on mobs in 2-3 groups bozja is faster
well cant exactly find anyone in the first zone
do i have to have the quest active in the quest log for memories to drop?
or is it simply bringing materials and quest pops up?
You need the quests active yes
You need the quest in your journal along with the appropriate weapon somewhere on your person
Whether it’s equipped or in your armoury/inventory
and to get the quest i need specific rank in bozja right?
rn im rank3, so i guess i have to grind it out?
Nope, don’t need a specific rank for the weapon
Since you can get the memories outside of Bozja
You could also do heavensward area fates
i have the relic wep, 1st stage
samsara for monk
i want to upgrade it
but i dont have any quest in quest log related to relic wep
active quest i mean
AFAIK, you only need to unlock Bozja to unlock the next relic step
Double check Gangos for a quest near gerolt
i see only this in gangos, "for want of a memory" but wasnt that quest for base relic wep not the next step?
For want of a memory is the 2nd step
oh, i see, my bad
thank you for the help
before finishing that quest, ill need to remove materia from wep before turning it in right?
Yep
is the handsaint's set better than Aesthete's set pentamelded?
no
u need 20 of each ?
Yep

do the meteors on e9s have dmg down?
if people survive them somehow yeah
gah. was hoping it could be cheesed with tank lb. ah well
Should I be slotting materia into my gear as a returning player trying to push main story content?
I see, thanks.
materia is expected of you for endgame content where you might keep a gear item for like, more than 24 hours
before that, not so much
Is it wise to redo a main story duty to farm class armor sets? For example if I come across a new dungeon should I do a couple of runs to get the pieces for my healer?
Or should I just keep pushing the main story?
I’m at level 57 main quests in heavensward
I see.
Thanks. Yea I’m in a weird predicament. I didn’t really pay attention when I first started and then quit. Now I’m returning a year later super invested in the game lol
I see
Right now I’m outfitted with mostly ironworks gear
Ironworks laats until 55, then you should consider upgrading it
I’m level 65 lol
You'll naturally be rerunning dungeons as you level
Once you get to Idyllshire. Buy shire
Tome gear in general lasts 5 levels until you should consider upgrading, especially on healer
Some dungeons have some nasty damage spikes that make things dangerous
Where does one find Tome gear?
Oh.
OHH!!!
Now I remember what that weird reddish icon is! Poetics!
Thanks for reminding me haha!
is it possible to change the stats on ShB relics?
currently no
possible that the next stage will be the "choose your stats" stage but cant say for certain
how do you guys level up your retainer? just quick exploration?

do we have a faq or something about the new dol collectables?
Anyone know how the heck /title works? I'm trying to set it to "Wandering Vanguard" in my GNB macro, but it keeps knocking it back as invalid
Its /title set "name"
Can anyone tell me why my puglist keeps missing his hits?
When you attack mobs that are higher level than yourself your chance of hitting decreases, the bigger the gap the worse, tbh not sure if the % chance to it caps out or not but yeah
That or you're getting some sort of accuracy debuff
Thats probably it. I've been going ahead on my hunting log even though I'm not that level to try to get the xp to level up lol
Yuuup that'll do it
I completed my 2nd maelstrom hunting log and I still can't get promoted to sergeant 3. I talk to the commander and nothing happens
Is it unattainable on the free trial ?
As far as I know, you should be able to.
You might be missing something, like the dungeon sidequest.
the what now
oooh yeah, shadows uncast
I see it
Makes sense, thanks
I've seen lvl 70/80 people with the sprout on their name, what's up with that
Job skips or Road to 70
Sprouts only disappear once you're both at 168 hours of /playtime and are at the first Shadowbringers expansion quest
no, no you cannot
is there a way to use LB3 for gpose screenshots?
wasn't there an expedition mode where you could do that?
explorer mode yes
but its only for shadowbringers dungeons, you enable it in the duty finder settings
1-3 star mark worth hunting for exp/seal/gold?
oh yeah nice!
can I replay the lb3 animation for gpose?
I want to take some screenshots
For crafting it's the exact same as crafting normally, except you raise collectability instead of quality
is there any specyfic rotation you do as crafting classes for best chance at HQ items or is it depending on an item?
Yes, there is rotation
To maximize your quality score
Assign yourself as a doh in #612757637813239808
And check out the pinned resources in #doh-dol-lounge
great, thank you!
can I copy and paste the game from my sister PC to mine instead of having to download it?
Can we copy UI layouts from one character to another?
Can you put any logo on the school uniform?
Or will it automatically be your guild symbol?
@fiery falcon Fc
that's how sigils work, it'll always be your FC symbol
Aw, so no way to change or hide it? ):
Don’t believe
If you start a duty roullete like 5 min before reset, and finish a half hour later. Can you still start it again with the bonus exp because you started it before the reset?
no, the roulette bonus is given at the end of the dungeon
ok

Thanks
Is mogstation down atm
It looks fine to me
is ||yotsuyus ||hair available in game at all?
not sure i fi should add spoiler or not lol
but i will just in case
I don't think it is. Au Ra have a similar one, but it's not exact.
man, i really like her hairstyle too
wish they had some of the villains outfits in the shop
hime cut 
any chance anyone is light farming arr relics?
How hard is Aesthete's crafting gear to make?
You need the legendary material locations books for one right and then you need special materials
But is it difficult to obtain and craft them?
you're gonna need to have some pentamelded pieces of aesthetes to make aesthetes
being able to HQ aesthetes will require some pentameld investment but it won't require a fully pentamelded set like the exarchic gear does
basically you need to have aesthetes to make aesthetes
Aesthete's gear is still the best crafting gear at the moment right
if you pentameld
anyone able to do the call back campaign for me or would they have to have added me as a friend before ?
or if you have pentamelded gear from a previous tier you can use that
is there a version of the level 70 job coffer that's dyeable
and yes aesthete will very likely remain our best crafting gear until the next expansion
sorry. typing on mobile
Okay thanks for clearing that up
I'll look into the materials required for each piece and work from there
Upgrade the job gear in eureka anemos to make it dyeable
so for AST celestial intersection is basically oposite of celestial oposition but single target? 
You have to already be on their friends list
depending on your sect
you may find best results asking another player to craft it for you if you get them the mats
It's more of an aspected benefic than CO
since they will already have the melds needed to HQ it
@raven sage ah ok thanks
But yes the opposite
but of course that means your name won't be attached to the gear, if that matters to you
@robust crow I've done that in runescape... Never again...
oh people don't scam like that in ff14 lol
most people are more than happy to help out if you get them the stuff
i swear sometimes AST decriptions are really confusing for me lol
i haven't played since early heavensward. is the inventory system any better or is it still the same?
I’m confused about how to place a pet skill on my crossbar. The skill says it cannot be placed on a hot bar but somehow it’s already hot keyed on a random bar. Anyway to put this skill where I want it to be?
pet hotbar is separate thing. Pets have additional hotbar
Bit of a weird question but, are mogstation deliveries taking forever for anyone else? I bought something about half an hour ago and it hasn't shown up yet, it normally never takes this long
What’s confusing about the pet skill is that the pet skills are assigned to my hot bar already. I don’t know why I can’t move them to where I’d like lol
It is available for midlander hyurs but not sure for other races
yes. because thats a separate hotbar, to my knowledge you cant move skills around but you can move hotbar into diffrent place, i didnt play much summoner so idk what else to say here tbh, i personally just kinda let pet do thier own thing and thats it lol
mogstation deliveries state it can take like 24 hours or some shit
longest I've waited was a couple hours
all you can do is be patient
True, just weird because historically I've never waited longer than about 10 minutes for one to pop up. Was worried that my card was declined or something
Because another skill turns into the pet skill and is used to give the order
Egi assaults and enkindle for Summoner turn into respective pet skills
Scholar just has the pet actions as their own skills
I’m a scholar class. So how do I cast the pet action like whispering dawn on command?
Use the whispering dawn action thats learnt at the early level
if something says DoH/DoL level 56 required that just means any of either of those categories at the given level, right?
Either of them
awesome, ty

Question about anima wepons, i have the 2nd quest, it says i need to go into snowcloak, do i need to haveit synced orcan i qo it unsynced?
*you can just equip the weapon before leaving the dungeon
or for the last boss(?)
I have a question: why can’t I place my Stardust Rod Nexus and Kaladana Lux in the glamour dresser?
Is there a place that tells me what armor sets are available for my level?
So that creature that escaped from the Akadaemia, can you do anything about that after clearing the dungeon? Like is it a quest?
Can I just discard the relics then? And if I want them for glam I get replicas?
its the world boss fate in the tempest
Its the super fate in the area
All right guess I’ll get a party together
the ARR relic you need to complete to zeta in order to buy replicas, and you need either have the zeta on you to buy the replicas or exchange it for the first step of the anima relic
It has a long cooldown just like any other super fate
wait THAT'S archaeotania?
Got a little lost there but thanks @twilit arch hehe
Are servers busy cuz fantasia is taking a bit
So stardust rod nexus I have to complete till final step to be able to get the replica?
yes, you need to make the lilith rod zeta
Got it, thanks!
archaeotania is usually a fate people track, and hunt discords and linkshells will usually call out when it spawns
if you just get some party together you're not likely to kill it in any reasonable time frame
whenever it spawns you'll see possibly hundreds of players show up to kill it
I, I meant I was lost with the relics not the fate haha sorry @robust crow
i pinged the wrong person sorry
sorry-see my above message
What happens if you accidentally discard your aetheryte pendulum?
How tf am I supposed to go east?
This looks like a place I can only get to by flying
Oop I just fell into it
Quick question here! I'm playing a realm reborn and I reached the point where I can do a quest to get a mount. However, it says that if I do it, I have officially beaten it. The problem is that I haven't beaten the main storyline. Will I still be able to do the main storyline after I finish the mount quest, or should I finish the storyline and then go for the mount quest
^^^^
You really should have picked it up by now
You got the ability to do it at lv20 after joining a grand company
I didn't know if I would mess thing if I did 😅
Idk how you can stand running around without a mount for like 50 levels
You cant mess things
Its impossible
Okay, good. Walking around was torture. thank you guys! I'm gonna get right now
for sure! it'll be super helpful 🙂
also another thing which i would suggest when you get your mount
is if you really enjoy the bgm
there is an option in system options to turn off mount music
I'll keep that in mind. Thanks

What seems to be the issue?
For that mechanic
The trick is stand near where the last swords drop and move into the first one
Usually the swords dropped east of the arena are first or third
too many deaths for me on that mechanic haha, i don't know where to go.
and i don't want to keep on relying on my party haha
🔁 LOOPING: Right click the video and select 'Loop.'
Later on in the phase, Tertius will be paired with a knockback or a growing AOE based on which body part splits. For the knockback, use anti-knockback or get knocked into the intended starting position.

See if this helps
look for the lines when the pairs of swords drop
ideally try to stand on the third set when the first pair explode, then move to where they used to be before the second/third pair explode
Will the next Restoration rankings cause a new grade of collectibles to show up, or will Grade 3 items still be used?
it took me about an hour and a half to finally get a grasp on that mehcanic
Grade 4 items will be released
Is there any reason to do Bozja?
If you want to do the storyline
I have better gear then what can be farmed in there
oh theres mounts
ty!
Theres 2 mounts from there
Do you know the name of the other one?
How do I acquire the White glowing fishing rod?
i am coming back to ffxiv but i deleted my ffxiv one time password app and i cant log back in on both my pc and one time password app, what do i do?
If you don't have the emergency/backup code, contact SE support
ye
thank you!
Is there a way to express '/targetpc if and only if a PC hasn't been targeted yet'?
when will that be?
Next Tuesday apparently
Can you craft ilvl530 gear?
No
510 is the highest crafted at this time
530 is augmented tome gear and savage raid grar

What are the best class synergies with Scholar?
So if you get married with Promise of Innocence (Standard), do you get the wedding outfit for free? Or do you have to buy that elsewhere?
Where do you get the materials for the Ishgard Reconstruction?
Diadem.
Wdym?
Some come from general places
What’s the main differences between BLM and SMN? (Never player before but I want to play as a DPS caster)
Smn has a lot more mobility and its rotation focuses primarily on burst, chores, then burst
Whereas blm has less mobility, and the rotation is more throwing out large damaging casts all of the time
Does SMN have more skills off GCD?
What's the Diadem?
I like the fantasy of BLM but I think I’ll like SMN play style more
Diadem is the gathering area in Firmament.
You get there from the Firmament?
Shame SMN can’t use shiny staffs
Okay, thank you.
You need a gatherer to get stuff there, obviously
Do SMN only use those books as a weapon? Are there any cool looking ones
MB usually has very cheap prices on generic diadem materials however
Just books.
Sometimes books have holographic whee shite
personal favourite being the book with blue Bahamut wings
@fresh lodge Like what classes work really well with SCH? Black mage?
I'd link it if I could remember the damn name
!iglam lemegeton Anemos
I just mean, like, what classes especially benefit from shielding? I was thinking Black Mage since they try to remain still.
Thats not a relevant factor
Shields are always good
Its literally more hp
Also all jobs want to try to remain still whenever possible
No reason to run around stupidly
I have no idea what I'm gathering here. Ishgard Restoration recipes are difficult.
has anyone ever contacted SE to remove their software token from their account? how long does it take?
Is there a guide on how to Ishgard Reconstruction? Something simple? All these various crafting items are too much for me.
you need to collect items in the diadem
turn them in to be sure theyre approved with a stamp
then you can craft with them
What's that ishgardian restoration rankings posted yesterday? I'm at the end of HW and just unlocked the ishgardian restoration, my crafters and gatherers are almost at lvl 60.
Can I do that thing posted yesterday or without lvl 80 is not worth?
Itll be very tough to get a significant ranking without 80 crafters
Tough but possible?
and that ranking , is it a time limited event, or how does it works? If in 2-3 months I'm at lvl 80, can I give it a try and still achieve a good ranking?
Or if I don't start when its released, its not worth?
this is the last ishgard restoration ranking
A lot of the harder crafts require an 80 crafter to get the minimum rating
so this is the only chance youve got
Didnt know there were others, just unlocked ishgard restorations a few days ago and havent done anything with it yet
How long is the duration of the event?
a week or so
Can I get lvl 80 crafters and gatherers if my DoW and DoM are lvl 60 and I'm still in HW ?
or do I need to do all MSQ to be able to have lvl 80 crafters and gatherers?
You need to be past patch 3.3 to unlock
I'm in 3.55
I've already unlocked ishgard restoration a few days ago
do i just need to do all 60 FATEs to reach rank 3 or will i have to do more once i passed these ones to truly reach rank 3?
okay, thats good to know
but is it doable to lvl up my crafters until lvl 80 before the event ends? to be able to obtain a descent ranking?
What does ranking get you?
Top 100 of the job gets you the title Beata of the firmament
Top 12 gets you Saint of the firmament
You really.only need 1 crafter at 80 and decently geared
*beata/beatus
fem/male variant respectively
top 100 is, i guess varying on server, extremely doable
i did it last ranking without breaking a sweat
Is there any gameplay mechanics unlocked with MSQ for crafter lvl 80?, Or just leveling it up even if I'm still in HW will be enough?
stats. higher level recipes for firmament give more ranking progress
expert recipes are from the master books, right?
so by default someone with leveled crafters doing level 80 recipes, or expert recipes, will automatically get more ranking for the same number of crafts than you
Vs the 2 points you get for stuff under that
not for firmament, no
firmament experts are usually simply a bitch to get high collectability on, and require timed diadem node materials
Just a title, then?
is there other similar ranking in the game after HW? Or if I dont finish the last 2 expansions in 1 week and lvl up a crafter to 80 I wont ever be able to do a ranking thing like this one?
no real reason to go for ranking twice if you got the title you wanted, basically
Firmament isn't really HW related
it just happens to be in ishgard
there may or may not be something like this in the future, we've no real way of knowing
all they've said is the crafter class that's contributed the most to the firmament's reconstruction will have a statue there
Gyr abania restoration jk
like, crp alc bsm etc etc
What I mean is, if I miss this chance, no more ranking things for me? I really like to do crafting, but I have every under lvl 60 and havent started SB yet, but I'd miss to not do an event focused on crafting, that maybe wont repeat ever
well, firmament will be done
and we can't say either way if there will be another ranked crafter/gatherer's effort in the future
so, can't really answer it chief
This is the first time they've done something like this for crafters
And after firmament is done, no one will be able to do ishgardian restoration in the future anymore?
I'm expecting it to be still content usable after restoration is finished
but the ranking will be gone
But ranking wont
oh, because people said it was the 'final ranking' I thought there were others before
well yes, there were
There were
restoration ranking comes in seasons
2 previous ranking seasons
basically, Ishgard Restoration has come in multiple phases
however, Ishgard Restoration has been the only crafter/gatherer effort like this
and Ishgard Restoration ranking is ending after this one
if that clears it up
the previous rankings when were? each per year?
Per patch 5.2 and 5.3 iirc
something like that
ohhh, great
seemed more common than that... thanks quarantine
so maybe there will be something similar in the close future
close future, unsure, but in pure logic it'd be a bit of a waste for them to throw a content concept like this in the trash forever
This ranking starts the 12 of this month and the duration is 1 week, right?
great, thanks
Praetorium with the daily bonus, gives different exp % each time? yesterday it gave me more than 1 lvl, today a little less than 1
erm, i'm inclined to blame the exponential gap between levels but honestly i'm not sure
so i could be right, or i could put it down to DF magic
Its scaled to your level
yeah, but I'm talking about exp %, it should be the same even if its scaled

the only way for obtaining yellow scripts is crafting collectables?
And weekly custom deliveries
What's that?
The best way for obtaining Fieldcraft Demimateria III is buy for yellow scripts?
of buyin from talan is easiest?
or with desynth?
the masterbooks I and II are part of ARR, right?
yes
Crafting collectables for yellow scripts takes too much time compared with custom deliveries? I don't have crafters at lvl 60, so I dont know if collectables for yellow scripts is worth my time, or should I just wait to get to lvl 60 to start obtaining yellow scripts
Custom Deliveries have a weekly limit to them, while normal collectables can be done as much as you want
Custom Deliveries have a weekly limit to them, while normal collectables can be done as much as you want
All of this is because I want to buy the masterbooks II, but I'm not at lvl 60, so I can't do custom deliveries yet to obtain yellow scripts to obtain Fieldcraft Demimateria III to craft the item to buy the book.
Because its ARR content, maybe there is an easy way to obtain them I dont know yet?
an easy way thats not spending a lot of gil in market
To get the fieldcraft demimateria? Desynth the artisan tools and equipment from the grand company
Or exchange token items for them from the ARR master craft vendor
The ARR tokens for master craft 2 needed a lot of RNG due to the nature of ARR crafting
oh, I've just done it , but I only got Vanya Silk and Lightning Crystal
time to go bug friends to make more alts
