I do not know if there is little people in any of them
difficulty but still possible right ?
It's not important, really
Not really
really?
instances are cross server
You're extremely lacking in CP
with the same pj?
Yes
Thats why server choice doesn't matter
Everything is cross server
And you can visit others in your data centre
Again refer to the faq
yes, you'll be in the same queue as people from other servers in your DC for instances

I see so better keep scrip till I can afford 490 overmeld, same for gatherer or scrip gear is good ?
Same rules
Okay hehe
You'll be low on GP for some rotations and Node bonuses
Thank you โค๏ธ
Scrip gear is a stepping stone to help you make the crafted gear
btw will we get any new gear, I mean in general : gather, craft and fight later like 530-40 gear or even more, or the last gear we'll got is the diamond weapon then the next expansion ?
Nope
I see, so scrip to get used to the job then craft and meld if I want to go further, thanks a lot
The only gear coming is nier gear, which is 520, and diamond weapon which is 525
And relics ofc
No other gear for the rest of this expansion
The best gear is latest tometone gear, right ? The one that'll be moved to poetics
Hopefully 2b hair in 3rd nier too xd
ok so I can slowly get into crafting without getting my gear outdated in few months
Cryptlurkee will be brought with poetics next expansion yes
The augmented version
Best now is upgraded crypy and savage drops
thanks a lot for answers guys, any quick guide to simply get into crafting to understand how to make high level crafts (or gather) knowing im really noob about that stuff and I find it hard
is cryptlurker gonna be the best gear post-ShB or will they release better gear in upcoming patches
I just asked that, cryptlurker will be best as I understood
with savage gear ofc
there some months before that, there enough time to be full 520 ๐
and I guess new Nier raid will bring upgrade mats for tomestone gear
I already asked a lot, but may I ask a last question ๐ ? Is there any way to know what expert book am I missing for each hand/earth job ?
and where to buy them (but for this one I guess internet is enough)
When is new nier tho?
next patch i guess
Oh so soon
Cant wait ti see how it looks
I think there will be few cool glams
It would be cool if they gave us 2b modern aesthetic as a reward for finiahing last nier quest
alliance is every odd patch
._.
The coin will be traded for crypt upgrades along with thw 2 other coins for people who dont do savage
Look at the forms on your map
they will hint you
find the form on the zone's map and poof you find
I'm doing solo maps while collectables spawn XD
Solo ? I don't think you'll be able to go thru the map dungeon if it pops
It has a 1 person number thingy?
anyone have good ff14 youtubers for learning for beginners
or just general ff14 content
Hi, the latest patch released yesterday is the last part ? Or is there another part or patch?
Wesk Alber for levelling rotations for each job
Todays patch is a minor patch for ishgard restoration
Oh and? Will there be another one soon?
thanks!
This is the last phase of the Ishgard restoration
5.45 is probably late Jan/early February for relics, 5.5 is probably in March/april
We usually end expansions on 5.58
OMG ๐๐๐ป its soon
All speculation based on usual patch cycle
I just saw the latest glamour and I'm like... I Love you SE ๐
But my sub ended 3 days ago ๐
I'm thinking about resubing lol but there is the Valentine event on FEB or MAR maybe
There's always a valentines event
I'm like what to do
I'm looking forward to anything FFXIV ๐@faint flare
Thanks For Info btw
Does the Doman Enclave stay at 20k gil when you max it out?
Donationbox wise I mean
when Im queuing for more than 1 duty, can I see how many players are in queus for each one, or do I always need to wait for it to rotate between each?
With the free trial can I play with friends?
If they own the game they can invite you
A New Amaro quest isn't showing for me in Il Mheg do I have to do something to trigger it or I'm dumb
It's locked behind MSQ, A Resounding Roar
thanks
How to get a mount, I'm in level 30 main story mission and everyone has chocobo but me
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
See here
thanks
Aquapolis is the thing that has a chance to spawn from Dragonskin map-chests right?
The 8man maps yee
the level 60 map
Clemency spam
Though that gets sketchy
Problem is I'm on the Free Trial and thus 1. not lvl 80 and 2. can't make parties in PF
Maps sync you down
Well the dungeon does
Map dungeons **
Outside doesn't
So you just need to be at the req level
I have like 4 of 4 different level 60 maps
Just never found the time to do them
Because I randomly stumble across them while gathering stuff
Before anyone says anything, you can get multiple unique items if you don't have them in your inventory/armory
So I have them in my 2 servants inventory and in my chocobo's pouch
sorry if this is a weird question, but if I cancel my membership for a bit does my character just go away or do I keep them and it just reverts to the free version
Character does not go away. You will just be unable to play. There is no going back to the trial version.
ahhh okay thanks
This is the first time Iโve had this ishgard restoration unlocked before a new patch, do you have to have a level 80 DoH/DoL class to participate in the group building project?
Thatโs nice, thank you. I just wanted to see what it was like and participate
How many days do servers usually take to finish these?
Depends how many stages there are
And how many people are actively doing it
The build itself maybe a few days to a weeks or so
Depending on how mant stahes
given this is the last stage
and how long it took for the first world to complete the previous stage, it'll probably take a month+
True
Only rush is the rankings for titles
Do note that the restoration itself isnโt going anywhere once things are complete

Yeah I just wanted to be part of the group crafting thingy haha
The fates happen whenever the progress bar on the Skybuilder board fills
And there's 2 of them, the second usually 8 hours after the first
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/772289065327788036/798526261974532096/unknown.png I'm getting this error message whenever I try to log in and this has been happening ever since the maintenance. Does anyone know a fix?
are cryptlurker > relics?
relics are i500 at the moment
so exarchic/emerald ex/cryptlurker/edenmorn
in order of increasing stat line
Anyone know the name of that pink jacket that's shown off in the patch notes? i cant find it anywhere ๐ฎ
its casual jacket
the whole set is from the casual attire coffer which is in the kupo of fortune scratch cards, can be sold on the mb
tho likely to be a bit expensive right now
ahh ok cool! thanks
Hi! Iโm nearly capped on allegory, what do you guys recommend I spend them on?
if you don't need the gear, then the new crafting materials to sell
Ok! Some of them now cost 10, they were 20 right? Or Iโm I remembering incorrectly?
the old stuff is 5/10
you wanna buy the mats that cost 20 allegory per
since that'll be the new mats
Thanks!!
Hi there ! I'm a crafter in the making and I'm looking for some lvl 80 hotbars for any crafter 'cause I'm completely lost with all these actions ;;
Can anyone help ? A screenshot would really help... I've been looking for one for hours now ๐
Why is the firmament playing the ishgard music and not the firmament music
Is it always like this during rankings
yeah unfortunately, until the current stage has been complete it'll play ishgard's theme
That's so dumb
I like the firmament music and it's the only place to hear it
And it's only nowI'm going to spend a lot of time here
Can anyone help with my macro error?
Its just giving a cannot be executed error
im trying to make a new macro for brooms to craft for restoration
my old macros work fine though
hm can you post the macro
yeah no problem
/ac "Inner Quiet" <me> /wait 3.0
/ac "Great Strides"<me> /wait 3.0
/macroerror
/ac "Basic Touch" <me> /wait 3.0
/ac "Standard Touch"<me>
/wait 4.0
/ac "Basic Touch" <me> /wait 3.0
/ac "Standard Touch"<me>
/wait 4.0
/ac "Basic Synthesis"<me> /wait 3.0
/ac "Basic Synthesis"<me> / wait 3.0
/ac "Basic Synthesis"<me>
Great strides wont proc
and a couple of the touches are skipped over too
shouldnt the waits be like <wait.3> ?
/ac "Great Strides" <wait.2>
/ac "Basic Touch" <wait.3>
/ac "Standard Touch" <wait.3>
/ac "Basic Touch" <wait.3>
/ac "Standard Touch" <wait.3>
/ac "Basic Synthesis" <wait.3>
/ac "Basic Synthesis" <wait.3>
/ac "Basic Synthesis" <wait.3>```
Basically your waits are wrong
is what it should look like
mmm icic
my old macros used /wait 3.0
so i thought theyd be fine
did they change something to macros?
/wait 3 works, but it waste lines
thank i appreciate it guys!
Sorry to be bothering with relic question again, but how many runes did you say I get per a9s run? I need only 3 more runes how many a9s would take that
2 runs per rune if itโs on bonus, I think 4 if not on bonus
Oh so obly 6 runs cause I farmed rest in brayflox hh
would anyone be willing to help me do the intro dungeon? I'm on primal (behemoth)
Does anyone know how i can fix this.. So i havn't played ff14 for days and decided to play again.. It let me log ina nd buy membership but once i did that i got an error saying that my account be at risk and suspended my log in.. I forgot what email i used to make the account, so i cant reset my password or unsuspend my account is there a way for me to fix this?
is brotherhood for mnk now the same as trick attack for nin? what are the differences?
It affects all damages now, like trick
kk
Brotherhood is applied to the party and not the boss
Trick increases the whole alliance raid damage while brotherhood only affects your party
Hey guys does anyone know how to unlock guildhests?
My friend asked me to do a roulette with them but I donโt have it x

what should i buy for skybuilder scrips to make money?
Check the market board
The items will probably be pricer early
New items*
But can potentially drop in price quickly
The new glamour outfit is probably your best bet
(The all-class one, not the crafter specific ones)
there's a quest called "simply the hest" that you have to do once you're lvl 10. there's one in gridania, limsa lominsa, and ul'dah:
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Guide:Progression_and_Level_Locked_Content
i also didn't realize i hadn't unlocked them so i had to backtrack and complete this quest, then guildhests were unlocked and were available through duty finder/roulette
Thank you! ๐ I appreciate it! ๐
how do u execute the laijutsu
Use the skill. Iajutsu
but i thought it cant be bound to hotbart
It turns into each respective skill according to how many you have
You have a skill in your actions and traits called "Iajutsu"
oh i see
And it turns into each skill depending on your sens
Would a SAM guide from April 2020 still be relevant?
yeah
that one Lol
whats the best order to start working on DoH classes on? because i see blacksmith uses carpenter stuff
yes
I wish I was kidding, but yes. Since the 1-15 crafts can more or less be done with the guild vendor materials
It's once you get past 15 that you'll start running into issues with obtaining certain materials unless you just buy your way through via the marketboard
alright
I would recommend if you're taking it slow to check what your grand company is asking you hand in, you can skyrocket in levels pretty nicely for potentially something cheap on the market board
I kind of want to have both colors
@leaden ginkgo you can buy a sindri replica from the replica node near gerolt
He brings up the node in a cutscene as a side project he was working on but totally understand if you skip said cutscene
All relics have replicas
where is tomestone shop from shadowbringers? 
Is this still relevant? https://imgur.com/mAcvEGg
Cool, yeah I did skip most anima cutscenes xd
@cold steppe eulmore
No that's stormblood
@sudden gust no
thank you!
Massively out of datw
I want 5.0 right
!faq Balance
!faq samguide
Boxer's Beginner's Guide:
http://bit.ly/SAM-Guide
Jahaudant's Shadowbringers Compendium:
http://bit.ly/SAM-Compendium
Also here
thank you
Balance discord has all updated guides for every job
im only lvl 50 so i dont think I have all those skills
Thats for lv80
But the core rotation doesn't change too much
i assume the tomestones of revelation are the weekly-capped ones?
Tsumbae is the biggest rotation changer due to the active use of Hagakure
And the filler loop
Yes
Otherwise the gcd rotation is the same
gochu, thanks
but it seems i should first focus on the crystarium gear anyway probably
does i510 matter anywhere? As in would i not be able to do SOMETHING without IL 510?
You can do everything in 510
Yeah if u dont have any other lvl 80 sets its probably easier to get crystarium gear first
Or do eden for 510 gear
Eden promise savage max ilvl requirements is 510
can i not queue for e10s above?
You nees to clear 9s first
Every week
o
i just wonder cuz crystarium gear is 500, unless you can like get crystarium il500, and then dungeon drop 510 or something
i see
On a weekly token system
hmm
so the drops are available once a week? Like you can get a drop once a week or smth?
1 drop per floor per week
gochu, understood
Yeah edem drops antiquities that u an exchange for eden latest gear
well then i guess i'll focus on crystarium gear for starters and go from there
4 for top and pants, 2 for shoes, belt, hat, hands and 1 for each acc
Get started in eden promise as soon as possible, as you need to clear the last floor 7 times, weekly, to buy a Relevation weapon
Ontop of the 1k relevation it needs
Is rev weapon better than resistance?
FAR better
for that i still need to clear rest of a story as i literally just finished mainstory
but i do try to do it as fast as possible lol
Raid weapon will be better until 5.55 or so, outside of Bozja.
Oh oki
1 point is extremely good, 2 or more is flat out non negotiable
I still need 1 more sword antiquity for rev weapon
I dont see revelation weapon tho? Unless it's bought somewhere else? for eden stuff
Fathard
ah you meant the cryptlurker weapons?
Those are relevation yes
wat is this thing
You get a blade from.the 4 fight which is used to buy the token
Potion
Specific a potionn that increases your main stat for more damage
do u know what the name is
Currently Grade 4 tincure of Strength
so i get the idea how to progress with armor, but how about weapon? Do i start from deepshadow and go up as i get those on main class, do i just buy the craftable weapon to not bother with all of this? Or do i wait for the eden one?
!item Grade 4 Tincure of Strength
if there's craftable weapon that is
!item Grade 4 Tincture of Strength
Quick way is just buy Exarchic
Long way is go get your relic weapon, as its a free i485 weapon (upgradeable to i500). You need to have done the lv70 24mans foe the relic quest line
Why can't I use Sneak as a level 11 Botanist?
You're in a city
hmm, relic questline? 
im going to look into it, thanks
but i suppose i could buy il480 weapon to start with if i'll go thru with this, as they're preety cheap
and crystarium armor
What classes sneak do you have
I should have Botanist
Double check
Because SE coding
anyhow thank you very much Vinyl for help
now i get the idea how to progress more or less
o/
if I wanna lvl fishing I should go to diadem when I can right
You could get exarchci weapon for the first hand?
And ocean fishing every 2 hours
if i don't care about crafting and just want to gather some scrips and make money what's my best way of doing it? just loop the map for the lv 80 crafting mats?

Basically yes
alright cool thank you
mining it is
does which node path i take matter for mats or is it more or less teh same?
If you dont hit the bonuses then doesn't matter
how do the bonuses work?
oh one more question, i suppose. when it comes to crystarium augmentation gear, how do you exactly get those items to augment it?
Via 24 man raids?
gochu, is there a limit per 24 man raid you can get per week?
Or limit is how many times you're willing to do it?
Not anymore
so basically whichever i prefer then? gochu
kay that makes sense, thanks for the help!
You need 1 of each coin
From the nier raids if you're going that route
Per upgrade
oh 1 more thing, to make sure, if i were to get materia to crystarium gear, and then augment it, will materias stay?
@faint flare so i'm on landsaint's gear I guess that just means I can't get the bonuses?
You'll probably get some here and there
I'm in worst gear and I get bonuses occasionally
how'll i know? just a bonus yield every once and a while?
so materia wont be lost then? good to know, than answers all my questions
oh ok thank you
They are lost
You trade the item in
For a whole new one
ah i see
gochu, thanks alot then
i know everything i want in this case
thanks alot!
You can retrieve materia
So if you wann meld, use tier 6s. They're guaranteed to be retrieved
yes thats why i asked, because i wasnt sure if i have to retrieve materia manually
oh so highest materia doesnt have 100% chance for retrieve? intresting
good thing to note
Is there a resource to check how much damage a raid wide aoe does on Savage? For fflogs idk how much mitigation that might have been used to skew the result
and i take it main non-rupee source of best materias are roulettes?
for those items to exchange
Hunt trains too eriotto
i havent tried hunts yet so i wouldnt know, thanks for the help
is there a resource for expert crafting rotations out there yet?
i think i know more or less how to do it then
I think there's a tab in fflogs to look at when buffs/debuffs are up but otherwise no, people just remember it off hand usually from experience
The guide for expert receipe was updated
so uhh 1 more thing LOL.
for eden weapon you need 1000 weekly points for all of those tokens, and after that for defragmented tomestone you need 7 of the items dropped from specyfic eden raid, that drops once weekly from normal difficulty?
do i understand that right
nice ty! 
Yes. People usually get their tomes in a way they'll have 1k relevation the same week they get their 7th weapon token
Just node gathering
no, just gathering.
is there new glowing crafting weapons?
No
only gathering?
Its literally just ishgard restoration update
only ishgard restoration phase 4
that's it
5.45 is when we get new relic steps, both for bozja and skysteel.
oh. for some reason my friend is telling em there is a new glowing gathering weapon
yepp thanks man!
question. how do buffs interact with DoT's? asking for example, fight or flight on paladin. does the whole DoT get affected by the buff if you use the DoT while under the effect of the buff or does it drop off when the buff ends.
ahhh thanks
Its why people usually aim to have dots refresh before buffs fall off
Piew@y123
I got one question if you have one fantasia and use it but never change your character does it expire? or if you edit your character but dont save it
and if you click edit character you can cancel the changes right?
ok I see ๐ค
You can free go back to the editor
one last question is there a way I can give a fantasia in one of my characters inventory to another of my character?
No
Makes sense ๐ค
otherwise you'd be able to get them infinitely through bringing alts up to 50 and completing the base ARR story
yeah I was assuming maybe there was a limit on how many you could get through the ARR lvl 50 story, it would be better for them to just add another later in the ARR
anyw thanks
It was a veteran reward for being subbed for X amount of days
so if the gear im melding isnt gonna benefit the most from my materia i should just go down the ladder of what to add?
Before they revamoed it
yep
Yes, its a priority list
Well warrior can make a tiny bit of use to it
As a poor mans determation
As DH is useless
i see
You're not taking it for the damage reduction as thst literally changes nothing even when fully stacked
Im curious as to what you mean by that
Warriors meld it because sometimes everything else is taken
yeah but it aint useful. its still garbage outside of ultimate prog
They get abit of use of it
what are rewards for doing FATE in Firmament?
are there script gear traded with skybuilder's script?
Tenacity is basically poor mans determination at best
Large amount of xp and wcrips
Like alot
Like almost guaranteed full level even when high up
What's the BiS for Miner?
Overmelded Aesthete
hi!!! question, im on ps4 and when im logging in, connection says poor, is it a square enix thing? or my internet?
Tbh i never really pay attention to that
cause im on ps4, ethernet cable and 20Mb speed, should be fine right?
what level do you need to be to use Materia 8?
question: how does level sync via. duty finder work?
In particular, suppose I have a lvl80 SAM, and I enter a Dun Scaith (lvl60 Alliance Raid). Would it be better for me to bring optimized Shire gear with materia than Cryptlurker gear with materia?
Yes, I'm overoptimizing, but I'm curious and interested in overoptimizing anyway.
80, as Tier 8 has a minimum ilvl of 420
Theres no point in doing that as it lvlsyncing will sync you to the highest substat cap for that item level @cinder pike
fantastic an entire collection of Restoration loot I can't even use
When you sync down, gear is synced down with you and stats are capped. Since its a very large level difference, both sub stats on your gear will be capped and on par with melded gear

If the sync difference was small however, like example TEA, then melded gear is better
As one substat wouldnt be capped
what does the grey frog symbol in the new map place do?
folklore stuff
Probably just a special mob, like the elephant from the 70 roulette
haven't you still not paid for the game? Im not sure you're in any position to complain about that
I'm not in any position to buy the game
question: when level-synced via. Duty Finder, will my materia have any effect?
I'm not on the trial still out of spite
No, materia is ignored
Which is why again, using old 470 gear is BiS for TEA
Tools do not accept Materia right?
Where you're not using 475 pieces
Every gear piece slot can accept melds
If the piece itself can
Landsaint cant be melded
It has no slots to be melded into
If it doesn't have the normal 1/2 slots then no melds
Thats the major downside of Saint gear: no melds
So end game currency is for materials to craft end game stuff?
Yes
Saint gear is a stepping stone to Aesthete
Thats what allegory tomestone are for
Scrip gear has always been worse than crafted gear
Like i said
cries
A stepping stone
Its not annoying its intended
Scrip gear is fine as leveling gear too
So if you don't do any crafting gathering this expansion you can just keep it as is for next expansion and itll be good until lv90
With the exception of maybe your main/offhand
Ig I go level my Botanist and Fisher while I have the 150% exp buff >_>
Any point leveling fisher other than Culinary?
Desynth and some fish sell for a lot
As someone who just got the game, what's the best Data Center to pick? I heard that on NA there's a lot more playerbase and I shouldn't have too much lag I think
!faq worldpick

Short hand: there's no best
Crystal is slightly more RP, aether/primal slightly more raid
Doesn't matter at the end
Go for one for your region
Why is the Level 50 gatherer scrip gear for level 58s ._.
Okay, thanks a lot ๐
for the anime questline, at 'A dream fulfilled" quest, how much should the anima weapon growth till the quest can be done? i have max-ed allocated 1 one of the stats and the 2nd stat i am leveling is at around +60
Yo I've been lagging a lot in Faerie recently, anyone else have this problem?
how do you save your progress in the palace of the dead?
Complete a set of 10 floors
You need to max out both bars of progress at the top
Thats roughly 60 to 80 treated sands
Transitioning from controller to mouse and keyboard. Anyone got any good tips to make the transition easier? (other than just play until you get the hang of it.)
Use F keys to target party members, tab is basically your left/right dpad
For enemies
Get comfortable hotkeys
I forget, in order to gather a lvl 44 mat you need to be at least lvl 40?
Is there a way to automatically have prospect and triangulate both activate when you swap gathering classes?
Well you could make a macro that swaps jobs and then applies the other thing
It would be /gs <gearset number that correlates to your miner>
/ac "prospect" <wait.3>
/ac "triangulate" <wait.3>
/ac "truth of forests" <wait.3>
/ac "truth of mountains <wait.3>
Or something like that
Ofc remove the one for your job as thats automatically applied when you swap
For the Skyward/ [X] of the Firmament, is that points collected forever or just the 9 days the Restoration is active?
For ranking? Its points gained during the ranking period
Is that how the title is earned?
Yes
You need to rank top 100 for one title, top 12 for the other (you get both titles ranking top 12)
ah
This is the last chance (at least for now until told otherwise) for the titles
The achievements are cumulative though
Itll take a while yes
Itll be tougher since you can't gather the artisanal stuff or lv 80 stuff
why is expert crafting so wack
but one under is easy with a marco
0 to 100 real quick
They're not MEANT to be macroed
You can only macro old ones because we overgear
well its grade 4 still, so not old but
They're designed for people who know how to craft
it isnt expert
The 80 stuff has always been macroable
We've just gone from 2button in Dwarven to 1 button in aesthete
lel
Its like crafting savage I suppose
which is also what the top people do for saint and all that? expert
Yes
looking at the gain diff and such
Yes they give the most ranking points
Pretty much
People go hard
For top 12
People ended with like 1 million points
To set a ball park
i work 4/7 days
ye not for me anyways
was just curious though, I think I heard of craft savage once so
understanding how wild it is now is nice
it depends on your server too
Like tonberry's scores are twice that of any other server in elemental
ye I am throwing gil for crafting atm to save time
cause they dont have the time to do gathering
im only doing mining, ill do the crafting stuff after the ranking ends
Eorzean Economists in a panic as Ishgard announces 4th phase of Restoration. Shambling economy crumbles even further :V

Gatherers rush to diadem to rip off crafters
are there any dye galleries of any of the new crafter stuff?
The great Diadem Rush
Yeah top 100 only needs like a hundred or more max quality level 80 turn-ins
is there a new bis crafter set? I cant seem to make the grade 4 diadem stuff
Pentamelded to the extreme
Yep, still aesthete
oh man
Theres macros floating around that work, and use food too
For normal receipes
You realistically canโt macro current phase expert recipes
why not
You need to take advantage and adjust your rotation around the unique statuses to succeed
oh you mean the procs?
And you NEED those conditions
The amount of quality/progress you need for them is extremely high
so im wondering which company i should join?
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
I've been gone since like September last year. Any big changes to healers since then?
Nope
but if im going for looks strictly speaking
Astro gets mana with cards
You can use the link in the faq to look at the sets that the grand companies have
Check the link @cinder spoke
@cinder spoke if you want to save on traveling costs, then pick the GC that's in the city where u started
likely u still have to class quests in that city
but yea it doesn't really matter
but if u were very cost conscious like i was in the beginning
i picked my home starting city
although it wasn't really that ideal for arcanist....since their job quests end up going to gridania...
which is really weird
i think it might be the only class/job to completely change area/zone
@faint flare Thank you
Normal arcanist quests stay in limsa while summoner and scholar which is direct upgrade from arcanist is at gridania

Scholar is at limsa for a bit before moving to upper la noscea @leaden ginkgo
why can't i turn this one in
Fuga > Mangetsu + Fuga > Oka > Tenka Goken
Just put up your Shifu and Jinpu buffs first
seems like you are mousedover the wrong one in terms of collectibility so the item you've made isn't high enough on collectibility
as a warrior, what does my healing scale off of ?
Strength
what about paladin
strength still
Same thing
the only weird one is summoner physick
which scales off mind
otherwise healing usually scales off your mainstat
yea why is that
what do you mean
I need a party to do duty finder
why not use the normal duty finder?
Canโt find anyone
just wait, eventually you'll pull people doing roulettes into your duty
Is there anything I can spend my Poetics or Allegory tomes on, for crafting Aesthete or Exarchic?
I guess so
Is it possible to mute the broom & paint emotes? They are fucking annoying
hahaha i wish. everybody flexing
also you could try going into limsa lominsa and just shout to ask for people to do a duty with you @sonic pollen
there will be plenty of people you can find that will help out
Crystal Malboro
you can start a pf too joker
WHOAH
Yess
I just discovered that pressing ctrl will bring all aetherytes to the top of the map layer!
Finally
Good luck with your duty!
Thank you
Not sure if this is the proper place to ask. But Iโd like to inquire about getting some help for all the items I need to level Carpenter? Iโm not sure if I have enough Gil but Iโd at least like to get started somewhere.
having a botanist is very helpful for leveling carpenter
since you are primarily crafting lumber to gain exp
are you lvl 1?
You'd also need to find someone on your datacenter
Iโve heard of people selling everything you need to get to 80, thatโs what Iโm looking for.
Marketboard is where to go to buy gil tho
Yea, get a ton of wood logs and just grind craft all the logs
buy stuff with* gil
you can use the very lowest lvl equip for 1-20
just check your crafting log
to see which items you want to grind to level carpenterr
after 20 just start firmament and you will accelerate
I did all that with my weaver.
I'd suggest going for the right hand side
And getting DoL classes
Then you can get all the mats for free
Plus at level 80 you can get scrips to buy cool gear :3
I only just hit level 80 >_>
At lvl 10 Botanist, you can start in diadem to get mats for crafting too
its always good to have DOL together with DOH cause mats on mb are overpriced
I forgot the name of it. I think Iโve heard someone say something like โkitโ or something.
You have a team
Yeah
Party = other people playing as well
But is this a cutscene
Probably?
hmm i think i used lvl 10 gear all the way to lvl 20+ tbh you dont need to pay much attection to gearing
they are talking
So, could anyone explain what exactly the adventurer in need bonus is on the duty finder? Is it connected to the daily extra exp/gil with doing finder?
It's 10%
Applies anytime you que for the role
Its negligible and not worth much
Maybe if you're low level
The experience from adventurer in need is very minor
But otherwise its really small
the gil from AIN is not negligible tho
The Gil can be nice if youโre really struggling
if u do AIN in all the roulettes u can net around 120k daily
perhaps even more when u are at level 80
The only other noticeable thing is the cracked Clusters for levelling roulette when queing it lv70+
Which is something
cracked clusters is only with AIN?
Levelling roulette AiN when lv70+
For tier 7 and 8s
Its not the best way to get matetia
But its something
i tihnk alliance raid roulette also gets u clusters
what is the best gatherer/crafter to level up first?
I think orbonee still gives you the clusters for 6s
Yes
Literally
Thats the answer
Its "yes"
You do them all evenly
understandable, have a nice
@terse crystal for gatherers its botanist/miner
for crafters i would start with which class best complements your main class
if u are caster, then pick weaver
It's best to level all crafters concurrently, and all gatherers concurrently since they share gear within their category (DoH/DoL)
@open coral yes but sometimes that's just too much
Its better to do all at once to keep gear around the same level
I still have all of my leveling gear
beginners want a point to start with
Also most of the DoH have intertwined crafts, so for example ALC uses things that you can get from LTW, etc.
And make gear for the other crafters
Dont focus on the one for your main
Cause thats not your focus when levelling
Self-supplying yourself saves a lot of Gil in the long run
^
Yeah, crafting is super important to do all together
But you could focus on Miner or Botanist first
That's what I did and it's working out fine :p
Yeah, personally I'd recommend starting with the DoL professions, and just save everything you gather, then go do all the DoH.
That way you self-supply, which is super important especially when you start getting into higher level crafts that need more expensive materials.
Also, there's not really any reason to do it until you've beaten Shadowbringers base game
what i did, which is not necessarily the right way, but was a very efficient and rather low-effort way, was just leveling one crafter using beast tribe quests, and then using that crafter to craft all the things for my other crafters for beast tribes
https://i.imgur.com/4Lse0lh.png hey why is this blue?
I uh. I haven't unlocked Beast Tribes
ah
basically i geared up one crafter (weaver) to the max and only leveled that one crafter, all the way to 50 initially
i then used weaver to craft stuff for all my other crafters doing beast tribes
The bar next to it is spiritbond
it was a rather low effort way, since i only fully geared one crafting job
ok thanks
and used that job to craft stuff for my other crafters
How do Beast Tribes work?
that method won't work for namazu tribes tho
Daily quests
but it will work for ixal and moogle tribe quests
what's really nice about the ixal tribe is that you always do 12 quests with them daily
beast tribe quests are great!! but exp is heavily penalised after u hit their max lvl
which is huge in terms of exp
@radiant junco doesn't matter tho, after u get past level 56, you have a whole slew of options to level crafters
from collectibles to custom deliveries in addition to leves and ishgard
getting to 50 is the main goal
which u can do quite easily using the ixal tribe quests
and the gear requirements for ixal is very low
If you're looking to power level levequests are your friend too
At the end of Shadowbringers I capped out my allowance at 100
leveling fisher, culinarian, and alchemist i recommend for leves, since you can often buy the levequest items very cheaply off marketboard for those classes
yup, Ive hit 70 at least on all DOH and DOL, so only getting 10k exp from Namazu quests....but i still do them cause i want the mount
leves really boosted my DOL
Is the person who asked the quests still here even? XD
XD
question about the payment system for this game. do i need to have a credit card or is there other ways to pay for the subscription
You can use other payment methods. I use paypal for example.
i dont have paypal either sadly
theres game time cards too, if its in your area
There are also prepaid cards but it depends on countries
Basically its like mobile prepaid cards
The cards have a code. Claim the code at your mogstation
To get more sub time.
best buy/ gamestop? i think usa one of the few countries that sell it
i only see 60 day 1
ty, this is late but I am a bit confused with when I put up my shifu and jinpu buffs
is there any a yearly one?
Put them up right away
do I target a single enemy first to apply those buffs, then go into aoe rotations?
Yep
ok
Highest amount of subscription you can buy is 6 months
let me see if my gamestop has those cards
Not sure if physical cards go up to 6 months? Been forever since I used time cards
do the cards stack up?
I know they do 3 month cards
at least you get a nice pretty card to go with it hehe
like i can buy 2 3 month cards and then that can last me 6 months
I think that works

ok i just came up with a smart idae
idea* i go ahead and buy a few 60 day cards. that way when my sub is about to end i can just scratch off the next cause get it and throw that card away and wait to use the next one
i'm visiting a house owned by a FC and trying to see their visitor welcome message or the message book
i see them both on the placard?
i guess what's the courtesy/etiquette? how do i even access these things to leave a message?
Click the visitor book. You can write anything you lik.e
I just put "Smug was here. UwU"
ok lets say I just bought a full set of augmented ironworks armor for my DRG but then unlocked samorui and want to play that instead. Is there any way for me to transfer this armor or do anything to that sort.
No. Have to buy new set
aye, are there any servers that are more friendly to new players- cause i feel very out of the loop in this one, no offence
/cry
Discord server? You can try your luck in #resources
how do i accept a linkshell invite?
click the linkshell/crossworld linkshell menu and right click the one thats different from the others (cant remember the exact way its different, different color text or something) and accept invite
Yeah it just seems that the people who are active here are all very advanced and I'd just like to see people who are relatively in the same skill level as me
Nothing meant by that ofc, it's still a dope community
who are these people with names like "Uwfypxkc Mgsdpnbo" or "Lodwickefh Kirk" advertising shady gil deliveries? are these actual players or bots or something?
Which savage fight would I need to do in order to Augment the cryptlurker gear? Mainly the hat cause I wanna dye it.
Almost defo bots.
well you can only make a Party Finder if you pay
that just looks like keyboard mashing LOL
lmao those arent even default names. those are faceroll names
i think the 2nd one's just a Roe name
Roe names can be wild man
i think most discords are gonna have a variety of players of varying skill level, imo this is the best one to ask general questions
you may have a point on the 2nd one honestly
dont worry, most of us overstate our actual abilities
10s drops accessory upgrade, 11s drops weapon and armour upgrades
So 11 to augment the hat? cool.
is the downloader super slow for everyone? like 16 hours to download the game. im capped at 2mbs
thats your net then
lol nah. its def the app. everything else runs over 25mbs
capped at 2 is crazy. and my firewall has it allowed
https://i.imgur.com/BLMlAmj.jpg so I'm trying to turn this stuff into a glamour plate, and I'm using the FFXIV Uiguide to try to help me with this, but it looks like a lot of it changed or something, because I'm not getting any sort of option to store specific items in the dresser, and the Armoire also doesn't accept anything aside from a few niche items here and there.
So uh, how exactly do I create glamour plates?
https://i.imgur.com/bG4ZxHJ.jpg I'm here, but also it's only showing tank stuff.
Use the drop down on the right
Looking for people to help me with Garuda fight.
Normal, Hard or Ex?
Hey what is an easy way to tell what character is my main?
from the documents?
I am trying to copy my UI from main to alt
But I have no idea how to tell what is what'
Change something on your main and look at what folder is the recently changed
Change what though?
Ok well I was just playing it so would it be the first one
Like physically change the ui so it can trigger the save
Ohh oik

Hi, I asked this in novice network but got some mixed responses. I saw that there were third party shaders that people use. I don't want to use anything against FFXIV ToS. Does Square and devs support/ allow third party shaders?
They dont support it
And techincally all 3rd party stuff isnt allowed
However SE has brains and are lenient
So as long as you're not cheating you're generally fine
Many people use shaders
You'll only be banned for third party stuff if you draw attention to yourself, cheat or gain advantage, use it to harass others or use more legally questionable addons
Your Kupo tickets dont disappear if you leave the Firmament right>
No
Makes sense. Thanks. Ill probably just play it safe and keep to the default stuff then
So swtiching my HUD didnt change much in the folder...
technically it's against ToS i believe
technically yes. as mentioned previously, SE doesn't really care as long as you aren't outright cheating
However SE has brains and are lenient
Cheating. Harassment. Monetisation or breaking the law.
Theyre Lenient on things that have zero impact to raiding and such
i think shaders are also a good way to help colorblind people 
SE doesnt have the "best" CB options
tl;dr a lot of things are against ToS or exist in the grey zone, just don't be an asshole and/or share exploits
you use third party programs are your own risk
