Yes it’s been lifted

wary eagle
#

oh i was using the wrong keyword, jeez had to be in the junk mail that i find this almost took an L

#

thanks

potent lava
#

so using paypal, subbing directly and subbing by crysta only differs in that for crysta its safer for the forgetful subber?

whole wasp
#

yes and it may be unviable for people in some countries to use creditcards

#

so they use paypal as an intermediatary

wheat plume
#

ok, I entered at this fc, it was created 1 week ago, 1 of the leaders has only 1 lvl 70 job and nothing more (lvl up buy with money), and they are telling members to donate gil and shards to fc. In 1 week we have like 4.5 mill, 4 days ago that leader took out all the gil and 10 minutes later put almost everything back.

#

is that a long term scam?

little swift
#

just leave

wheat plume
#

yeah, I'm not dumb, but I'd like to be completely sure this is a scam, to warn other members

little swift
#

you should never be obligated to donate or what not for the "purpose of the guild"

wheat plume
#

or maybe report ? dunno if that works

little swift
#

no not really worth a report tbh

wheat plume
#

yeah, they're telling the members who donate more get higher ranks, and the shards will be sold and part of the income will be divided in the highest ranks

obsidian patio
#

Taking from the FC chest is not really reportable since it’s up to the FC to set responsible privileges and for the members to be careful with what they put in

little swift
#

sounds mostly like an attempt at making a gil farming with only actual players

wheat plume
#

What could have been the reason for the leader to take all the gil and put everything back 10 minutes later?

obsidian patio
leaden ginkgo
#

Any PS4 Pro players? I have a question for people who play on the Pro specifically

#

Do you ps4 pro users play with High or Normal draw quality ?

#

Does it really affect performance?

obsidian patio
#

I play with high draw quality and barely notice a difference in performance

#

Though I do recommend lowering the water refraction stuff or whatever settings the water has in system config

leaden ginkgo
#

Woah why?

#

I didn’t even know that was a setting I could change in ps4

#

What does water refraction even do ?

obsidian patio
#

Something with reflections from the surrounding? I don’t really know the specifics but I don’t really notice when it’s on or off

upbeat veldt
#

am I really supposed to be getting 3-4k xp per hit at level 41?

#

mining in diadem ^

leaden ginkgo
obsidian patio
#

More of a “I don’t notice when it’s on or off, so better to leave it off”

cedar compass
#

When will the emerald mount be purchasable with totems?

obsidian patio
#

Not until 6.0, based on previous trends

naive kraken
obsidian patio
#

It usually takes 2 main patches or next expansion for extreme mounts to go into the token exchange, depending on which happens sooner

cedar compass
#

Ah, okay

#

Are the others purchaseable yet?

obsidian patio
#

All up to Ruby

naive kraken
#

memoria doesn't have one btw

obsidian patio
#

SoS Extreme is expected to be buyable with 5.5

#

And Emerald/Diamond with 6.0

naive kraken
#

I assume we won't be able to unsync Diamond until 6.1/6.2?

obsidian patio
#

6.0

naive kraken
#

was rathalos an exception then?

slate arrow
#

yes

obsidian patio
#

Probably because it was a collab

cedar compass
#

Also

naive kraken
#

im just trying to remember if it was 5.0X or 5.1 when we got it unsynced XD

cedar compass
#

When is the ultimate dropping

#

And do we know which fights will it be

naive kraken
#

supposedly 5.5

slate arrow
#

5.51

naive kraken
#

oh on a x.x1?

cedar compass
#

So in like a month?

slate arrow
#

Since 5.5 will have the final Shadowbringers alliance raid

#

It was the same for TEA I think

obsidian patio
#

Closer to two-three months for the actual ultimate

#

Still not halfway through 5.4

#

5.45 having mainly resistance weapon/bozja and blue mage level cap increase

naive kraken
#

have they said anything about hildy?

obsidian patio
#

It’s been canned for Shadowbringers to give it a temporary rest

naive kraken
#

probably not a priority currently

obsidian patio
#

They felt they’re tiring it out and want to wait for it to feel fresh

glacial isle
#

how on earth would hildy even arrive in the First?

naive kraken
#

they probably do put a few too many quests in when they go. feel like 2-3 lines about every other point patch is a bit much

obsidian patio
#

The SB ending made it a possibility if they ever wanted to go for it

#

They actually never intended for it to go past ARR, but players loved it enough that they continued it some more

naive kraken
#

its been 2 years, they probably could. if it was always X.5 patch

glacial isle
#

question: how does the new DoH collectable system work?

#

half the time I get a decent collectability and the thing breaks anyways

slate arrow
#

It's the same as before, but just streamlined.

glacial isle
#

I didn't do it before

slate arrow
#

tl;dr raise Collectible rating, make sure to not go over node durability

#

most nodes only last through 4 hits

glacial isle
#

yes i click "Collect" with 1 durability remaining and 1/2 the time it breaks

slate arrow
#

that's just your gear not being good enough

rigid narwhal
#

just do scrutiny > meticulous > scrutiny > meticulous, collect if 1000, meticulous again if close.

slate arrow
#

Means you don't have a 100% chance of gathering

glacial isle
#

great

rigid narwhal
#

there's slightly more nuance but that should work most of the time

glacial isle
#

tbh i'm on smth with a 100% gather rating so its just "more collectability" so i can get better gear

marble drift
rigid narwhal
#

yuh

#

im actually upset the simplified collectables even more

#

the white scrip gear is... fine. it's not aesthetes but it's fine enough

tropic notch
#

is 1-60 in diadem supposed to feel super slow

rigid narwhal
#

get some survival manuals from your grand company

tropic notch
#

gotcha

rigid narwhal
#

also use food for 3% more. once you hit 50 you'll need to buy survival manuals from the yellow scrip vendor

tropic notch
#

I see

obsidian patio
#

You can still use the ones from the grand company, they’ll just be harder to use up

tropic notch
#

I see

glacial isle
rigid narwhal
#

they lose their efficacy >lvl50

#

yes

#

these are the ones from your GC

glacial isle
#

ah

rigid narwhal
#

id say use those until 60

#

50-60 will be more of a grind

#

but once you're at 63 iirc you can buy cheap mb gear that'll be good to level you until 80 (along with the manuals coleridge linked)

glacial isle
#

do any NPCS aside from GC sell Cordial (in ARR/HW)?

green grail
#

yellow scrip exchange has hi-cordials

#

and ishgard restoration scrips has another type of cordial i think

glacial isle
#

thx

iron ridge
#

is there any way to sort my inventory with a button or something so it auto stacks on retainers?

green grail
#

right click any item and sort

#

it won't autostack but they'll be next to each other so just stack them yourself

glacial isle
#

thank you so much

#

this makes the inv. so much more readable

iron ridge
#

ahh i was more going for from my inv and merge it with existing stacks of same item on retainer for my whole inv but its not:(

#

a thing

patent citrus
#

do people in Light DC use POTD to level at all??

obsidian patio
#

I don’t see why they wouldn’t.

patent citrus
#

the queue is across data center right?

#

or just across world hehe

slate arrow
#

Entire data center based on your currently selected languages

warped nest
#

It is among all world in the same data center

#

(I dunno if cross data center means within data center, or between data center)

hot eagle
#

but if you aren't doin floor 51-60 the que is rly bad, faster to make a pf for floor 1-50

#

also it's rly early for europe

patent citrus
#

yeah, just glad found the other 3 to help me climb 1-50

#

i will try tonight

#

sorry for misunderstanding

#

i mean all the worlds in aether is included within the queue like duty finder haha

#

for example

surreal rapids
#

how do linkshells work? Are they just a group chat channel so people can have communities other than their FC?

slate arrow
#

more or less

hot eagle
#

yeah linlshells a like a small private chat group, like fc, novice network

surreal rapids
#

i see, thanks
recruitment only has FCs and so on, i was trying to find out if there were ways to find and join communities other than FCs

#

i usually play for a couple of months every now and then, not really holding a constant sub
so i usually get the novice network, which is nice
but once that goes away, i kinda miss the banter

glacial isle
#

Reminder: the blue scrips gear is used to craft the Ironworks Crafting/Gathering gear right? (as in: it gives you the stats to make them)

leaden ginkgo
#

morning everyone

glacial isle
#

Mornin'

leaden ginkgo
#

I need some help with a glamour

#

I really wish to make a kirito outfit, if you can give me any ideeas would be great

#

please :))

vernal urchin
leaden ginkgo
#

oh, sorry for wrong topic than

slate arrow
#

nah it's a valid question

#

Just better fitted for that channel because most of us don't have gear pieces memorized like the back of our hand

leaden ginkgo
#

got it

dusk prism
#

I just got a timeworn dragonskin map, should I use it or sell it?

agile laurel
#

up to you

#

the loot may not be that pricey nowadays, but potentially it might be worth more than the map itself

quasi thistle

i feel after 75++, healing is kinda wanning gradualy....... i have less time to do dps.... more healing healing healing and healing.... Haato_Notlikethis

agile laurel
#

not wrong. leveling healers feels a bit of a falloff in the 70-80 bracket

#

don't get complacent and make sure you're using all your tools

#

it won't stay that way forever

#

it could also be the quality of your groups, bad dps drains healers of tools

#

@quasi thistle

simple shore
#

yeah tbh if anything i felt like i was doing more DPS on WHM the higher i got while levelling. might just be a glut of shitty tanks.

agile laurel
#

i mean you're quite close to Malikah's which is the death of leveling healers

#

You'll really notice a lack of understanding of your kit, or dps that're slow at clearing, there

simple shore
#

I never really had any issues with that one. For me it was always Dohn that was the "oh crap people are bad" one.

agile laurel
#

It's probably most of them, tbh. Mheg just has the runoff issues of people boosting and not understanding

warm lily
#

Is there a color code guide to quests

simple shore
#

Not sure what you mean

warm lily
#

Like orange, blue and the main quests?

whole wasp
#

msq very impt

#

bluequest unlocks something

#

sidequest mostly lore. Sometimes emote or item

simple shore
#

The last of those can basically be completely ignored on your initial playthrough - and should be.

whole wasp
#

If it has recycle sign, its repeatable

warm lily
#

Ty

#

Going through my recommendation and noticed the different quests

little swift
#

Recommendation is usually area based

whole wasp
#

You can safely ignore all the "so you want to be xxx" bluequest until you are ready as well

upbeat veldt
#

Does gear matter when gathering in Diadem pre-60/80? Also, is the yellow scrips gathering gear necessary or will vender gear work when leveling 60+?

slate arrow
#

Yes, mainly for maximum GP which helps with maximizing gathering, vendor stuff is good enough for the most part

#

While leveling you just want more GP

#

Only really have to worry about stats at 80

devout cargo
obsidian patio
#

Ironworks is better when melded, but either way getting a full set of yellow scrips for level 60 is pretty overkill since the sets are class-specific

#

Best to only get belt+accessories and maybe tools, and use the level 61 crafted set instead

carmine laurel
#

Returning player noob question......

On my lvl 80 whm I have Ingrimm equipped, is there a further part to the wepons questline yet to make it more powerful? It is currently ilevel 485.... Or should I look to replace it with something else if no quest exists yet? Tia

obsidian patio
#

The resistance relic currently goes to i500

#

But if you’re looking for a quick increase, I recommend checking the prices of the exarchic weapon (i510) for your data center and decide if it’s worth the cost

carmine laurel
#

Okay, thankyou for the help 🙏

obsidian patio
#

For a frame of reference, on Aether the cane is between 140k and 190k depending on exact server

gritty oracle
#

I would still get the relic though. Unless you want to do current tier savage, which I don't recommend if you're new, the i500 relic is "good enough". Plus you're gonna Probably want to get the upgrade done at some point anyways.

carmine laurel
#

Think I will spend the day crafting a set of i510 stuff (80 in all crafts, just gonna have to watch some video to recap on crafting, haha). Then work on the relic quest tomorrow. Thanks for both your help 😀

gritty oracle
#

I could send you relatively low stat requirement macros

carmine laurel
#

Thanks friend, but I'm just hoping it all comes back to me when I start, haha. I see there is like a crafting practice option in the menus now, thats a nice touch...

gritty oracle
#

Yeah there is. Although I must warn you, making a full Exa set from raw mats will take over an hour so don't recommend crafting by hand.

simple shore
#

Unless you had a fully melded set of Aesthete's when you left, gonna be pretty rough for you to make Exarchic gear.

gritty oracle
#

Also yeah, you need at least 1-2 overmelded aesthete

#

Or handsaint

#

I'm fairly sure you can make it with handsaint

obsidian patio
#

Pure hand saint isn’t good enough

gritty oracle
#

Oof

obsidian patio
#

Handsaint suffers from low CP and low Control

carmine laurel
#

Rome wasn't built in a day, haha. I will get my head around it

simple shore
#

Aesthetes with some melds will let you make it, but you have to HQ alot of intermediary stuff too. Full melds lets you make it without almost no HQ mats.

#

My current setup for Exarchic lets me make it with only the sand and 78 item HQ

gritty oracle
#

I never bothered to get bis pentameld, I can HQ from like 14k-ish starting qualt

silver ruin
#

peopel pentameld to have to hq less mats

simple shore
#

Yeah thats the real appeal is the time saving.

heady knot
#

any savage discord around?

simple shore
#

Not having to run obnoxious macros on 4 star mats is nice

gritty oracle
#

I'm fine with my current setup. I'm not gonna waste all the scrips to remeld.

silver ruin
#

theres a few recruitment discords i think but htats it

leaden ginkgo
#

Were there any changes to payment method on mogstation?

slate arrow
#

No

quasi thistle
#

when the tank is kinda on high, like agroing bunch of monster, his HP drop to 30% in 4 second, got into emergency and spamming Holy,Holy,Holy to buy time for Regen + Med II DoT regenerate some HP, then even before the Tank got enough Hp to agroing another mob, he go sprint and kite another bunch of mobs leaving me behind....

#

how to make the tank survive in that situation ?

#

i kinda feel bad

simple shore
#

if you're using your abilities correctly, and the tank is still spiking that hard, its probably them thats wrong.

#

Watch to see that they're using their cooldowns

analog gate
#

don't use medica 2 if you only need to heal the tank btw, cure 2 heals the same potency (if only tank needs it) and both costs 1 GCD

brave drift
#

sorry, where do i have to write that i need people for a PF?

quasi thistle
#

melee dps kinda often give ma a fright... one second they got full HP, the next second they only got 10% hp left...

gritty oracle
leaden ginkgo
#

hey, I made the 1v1 bozjan fight trigger but I couldnt join it ? any idea why ? it was like 4/1, are we choosen random ?

#

or maybe I couldnt join cause I was in a group ? I dont know, first time I see this fight

oak ice
#

Yes

#

If you don't get any vuln stacks in the required fights you get the invite and then it picks at random among everyone meeting that requirement

leaden ginkgo
#

oh I see

#

if that happen again to me, can I still join the fight if im in group ?

#

or I must leave it

#

and may I ask more : what does this fight gives ?

oak ice
#

You can join it when in a team

#

It will just transport you into the arena alone

#

And I don't know what it gives, when I did Bozja only the baddies got the invite since they focused on avoiding vuln stacks and not doing any damage to the bosses, so no one beat it

leaden ginkgo
#

I see lol

#

I was just trying do avoid aoes while fighting nothing more then I got this invite

twilit arch
#

its 99 lockboxes, a bunch of mettle and buff i believe?

leaden ginkgo
twilit arch
#

leaden ginkgo
#

woaw thats a lot

#

oak ice
leaden ginkgo
#

😮 nice

#

thanks for that info

oak ice
#

Says 99 lockboxes, 30 tomestones, 1800-30000 (jeebus) mettle and one of those text thingies

leaden ginkgo
#

oak ice
#

Nope

leaden ginkgo

gritty oracle
#

Does "glamouring counts" in fashion report mean that if I glam say, false nails over an exa piece, it will count as both wearing exa and wearing the false nails? Or just the false nails?

twilit arch
#

the false nails

oak ice
#

You don't have to equip the actual piece if it's glamoured on top of what you have

twilit arch
#

for fashion report, what matters is whats visible

gritty oracle
#

ah ty!

#

Is there a way to preview fixtures without having them in my possession?

leaden ginkgo
#

hey guys, i just bought general purpose pastel blue dye from the marketboard but im unable to dye my things with that color because icant find the option 😮

#

is that not for clothes?

silver ruin
leaden ginkgo
#

nah its dyeable

#

am i allowed to send screenshots here?

oak ice
#

Yes

#

If it's relevant to the question

leaden ginkgo
#

im trying to dye the allagan set, which ive already done before so i know its dyeable.

#

i can send a screenshot of the general purpose pastel blue dye in my inventory

oak ice
#

Make sure it's the Replica Allagan set

leaden ginkgo
#

and a screenshot of the lack of option for it

#

i dyed allagan set and it wasnt a replica 😮

obsidian patio
#

Only the replica version is dyeable

oak ice
#

They look the exact same, but replica is dyeable

leaden ginkgo
#

does the name have the word replica in it?

oak ice
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

well mine doesnt and i dyed it

obsidian patio
#

What’s the full name of the item?

leaden ginkgo
oak ice
#

Oh, that's pvp gear

obsidian patio
#

Ok that’s a different allagan set

leaden ginkgo
#

oh i didnt know there were two.

oak ice
#

There are multiple

obsidian patio
#

There’s like 5 or 6 different allagan sets

oak ice
#

Allagans got around

leaden ginkgo
#

oh did not know that, i apologize. maybe that dye is for a different set only?

obsidian patio
#

Dyes aren’t gear-specific

oak ice
#

Something like

#

!iglam heavy allagan armor

zinc orbitBOT
oak ice
#

This isn't dyeable

leaden ginkgo
#

just want to dye this lmao

obsidian patio
#

You don’t have the dye on you

leaden ginkgo
#

3rd column, 2nd row

obsidian patio
#

Go to the final category of dyes

#

The ones with a green background are in that set of dyes

leaden ginkgo
#

oh im stupid

oak ice
#

All of those are dyeable since they have the small circle in the top right showing a different color

leaden ginkgo
#

thank you, i see it now. i thought they were all only store bought. sorry!

#

im just a few weeks in to this game. thanks for helping me out.

#

Does stone 2 and regen 2 do the same amount of damage/healing?

#

Since they’re both 200 potency

open rivet
#

is there a quick-guide to understanding parses?
I'm nowhere near going into endgame content,
but knowing how to at least start reading this stuff would be greatly appreciated u_u

leaden ginkgo
#

Does anyone know if "Chat support" is by a voice call, or chat. I just want to make sure to prepare and connect everything 'I because it says 'Mute"

eager widget
#

so it does about 200 potency of healing every few seconds

manic rune
#

from there you can paste the report link into sites like xivanalysis to give you a rundown on how people performed with their classes based on uptime, their use of debuffs, etc

#

try asking in the fflogs discord if you’re unsure about how to find anything specific in the fflogs fight report/how to use their site

raw granite
#

how much more damage is a direct crit ?

brave drift
green grail
#

x1.20 or x1.25, not sure @raw granite

raw granite
#

huh

#

it's not that much

green grail
#

oh direct crit

#

then it's that (static dh multiplier) multiplied by the crit multiplier, which scales with how much crit you have

manic rune
#

the extra damage adds up over the course of a fight

green grail
#

low roll technical step can hit for like 99k, direct crit technical step in opener with all the buffs hits for like 215k

manic rune
#

they drop as consolation prizes from the ishgardian restoration kupo of fortune

#

so they’re insanely cheap on mb as well because everyone sells the trash prize

#

i’m not sure, since it’s not a direct drop like a quest reward

green grail
#

they probably don't have an easy way to list it if it's some niche way like kupo of fortune

#

they already have a system set up for listing quest rewards so they just add that

manic rune
silver ruin
#

no

#

not that i can recall

#

theres event stuff like prisms (fireworks etc) that are seasonal but i cant think of anything else

green grail
#

if you count that as separate from events then i think some irl promos had glassy wings as a limited(?) prism? dunno

opaque pewter
#

What exactly do I do in HoH to get the Juedi mount?

green grail
#

clear floor 100 four times

gritty oracle
#

deep dungeon loot is usually in silver haloed sacks

gritty oracle
#

oh nvm

manic rune
#

consumables imply that it applies some kind of effect, and apart from the prisms as pure cosmetics, i’m pretty sure all other consumables can be obtained indefinitely

#

yeah, i got two different types of wings prisms from my eternal bond ceremony

#

well in that case... mounts and minions would be considered consumables too adsthink

vital relic
#

sigh... i need to stop pretending i actually know what proc means.

#

someone please give a gal a hand with some of the niche-r lingo haha

twilit arch
#

proc basically means that a skill can trigger another effect/skill

so, for mutamix's whole deal of transferring materia: I have a bunch of MKVII battle materia I don't need from quest stuff, and aim to turn as much of it into gatherer's materia as possible, probably to sell

someone told me the best way to do that is to always pick 5 different types of battle materia for each meld, so that it's always in a 1/1/1/1/1 ratio

#

is that right?

little swift
#

Yes it can't give you a materia type you put in

#

But there are more than 5 types of combat substats so it could still result in a combat materia 7

limpid lynx
#

ye

#

but it's reducing the chance significantly more

#

awesome, thanks

hi guys I have a couple questions is there any way to be better warned about party finder? I mean Im a dps so takes a while, and sometimes Im watching youtube,and the program doesnt shine or make a sound when party is ready like wow for exemple or have to change some settings for that?

do i need to use my relic through out a duty in order to get light or do i just need to have it equipped before leaving it?

I'm not sure if anyone could help me on this.

I checked to make sure I didn't cancel my service account but that wasn't it. It's like my account is brand new and doesn't register that I purchased the game previously. I played it in 2013 to 2018... I'm super super confused. Idk what to do.

hey, should I spend my tomes on materia as I level up or what should I buy?

so i just reached lv70 and got the antiquated set, but where do i get the antiquated jewellery set? and where do i buy the lv70 equivalent of "ironworks"/"shire" set?

some duties have special weather during them

#

it's just for show though

faint flare
#

For scaevan

#

There's never any antiquated jewellery

fresh marten
#

i see

#

whats the ilvl for scaevan gear?

#

and where do you earn scaevan?

faint flare
#

400

plush hound
#

@patent citrus for the most part. Unless your fishing it usually has no difference.

faint flare
#

Again, brought in kugane or rhalgars reach

#

After completing 4.0

#

Kugane is via splendor vendors as usual

fresh marten
#

oh wait sorry, is the currency used still the tomes

faint flare
#

Yes still poetics

fresh marten
#

ok nice

#

thanks

#

🙏

forest sage
#

every past expansion gear is poetics

#

or well everything that was tomes at the time

#

some stuff gets converted to centurio seals during the expansions

fresh marten
#

so i suppose when i hit level 80 its centurio

faint flare
#

No

fresh marten
#

i was wondering why i cant access the store when i first arrived in kugane

faint flare
#

Lv80/current cap stuff is always completely different currency

#

Because again

faint flare
#

They dont show up until 4.0 is completed

fresh marten
#

will there be a in game guide about it?

faint flare
#

No because lv80 currency is thr same methods, just different names

fresh marten
#

i see

faint flare
#

You do 80 content for lv80 tomes

forest sage
#

when I say centurio, it's the early gear in a given expansion, for example 4.0 tome gear becomes centurio, but 4.4 gear is poetics

fresh marten
#

whats centurio ilvl?

forest sage
#

it became centurio during Stormblood so it stayed that, but all the tome gear at the time of 5.0 release became poetics

#

lower

#

it's irrelevant other than for glamours

faint flare
#

Hunt currency gear is always lower than tomes

#

As its the old gear from the start of a expansion

#

Not the end of it

fresh marten
#

ok so i do hunts for centurio seals

forest sage
#

once 6.0 launche,s all the current ShB tome gear will become poetics

fresh marten
#

i see, sounds fun

forest sage
#

but the older 5.0 gear that already was converted to nuts(equivalent of centurio) will stay that, if you want them for glamours and stuff

fresh marten
#

thanks for the info, imma look around

forest sage
#

for lvling purposes the main thing to know is you buy the good gear with poetics at 50/60/70, rest is just for glamours

fresh marten
#

btw, i know that you upgrade the antiquated gear

forest sage
#

you can, if you want to dye it

fresh marten
#

do they surpass the lv70 poetics in the end?

forest sage
#

no

fresh marten
#

i see

#

so theres no much point other than for glamours ey?

faint flare
#

Upgrading it is mainly to make the gear dyeable

forest sage
#

eureka technically has a set of armor that can beat tome gear in some slots when melded, but it's not really relevant

#

it takes dozens of hours of grinding to get there

#

and it'll only very slightly better on like one or two slots

#

the only relevant gear to compare to tome would be savage drops, but you're probably not getting into a group farming those at this point in time, and it's just not really worth it over just farming some roulettes for poetics

fresh marten
#

what about pvp side of the game, is it popular?

faint flare
#

Not much

forest sage
#

no it is not, but some people do it

#

pvp also doesn't reward actual useable gear since SB, just glamour rewards

#

in pvp, you have standardized stats

fresh marten
#

let me guess, the same group of people who gets toxic to new pvp players?

forest sage
#

your gear doesn't matter(same as potd and such)

#

na it's just not popular

leaden ginkgo
#

Would it be possible to get a team to teach me dungeons properly as I play tank, I’m about to unlock war I’m on like the last msq and I wanna be a better tank to help my team

forest sage
#

the pvp is kinda weird and floaty in this

faint flare
#

Put on tank stance (defiance) > hit mobs > rotate defensive cooldowns > dont stand in bad

#

Well dine you're great tank

forest sage
#

game code is basically not really made for pvp in mind so it feels weird to play, and most of the population just doesn't care

fresh marten
#

i would be glad to join you holo

Tanking is one of the easiest roles

little swift
#

I doubt you're on the last msq if you've yet to unlock warrior as a job

leaden ginkgo
#

I play on that French sounding world in chaos

little swift
#

So just take your time to learn

forest sage
#

louisoix

little swift
#

Louisoix

leaden ginkgo
#

I mean last msq to unlock warrior

#

yeah that one

little swift
#

Warrior doesn't change drastically upon upgrading from marauder don't freak out

forest sage
#

but yeah playing a tank isn't too complicated, the shortened version listed earlier is good

leaden ginkgo
#

I was taught to grab boss aggro and then run through him so he turns around for dps but are there any other tips like that

leaden ginkgo
#

I know the basic stuff but any niche tips that can help out

forest sage
#

if you have tank stance on, you will have aggro, they made it irrelevant, so after that it's just a matter of making sure you hit every enemy(you have aoe skills, Overpower for WAR), make sure you don't stand in aoes(but don't move if you don't have to, so melees can hit positionals) and use your defensive cooldowns not only whne you're low, but more to prevent getting low in the first place

faint flare
#

There's not many niche tips really

#

Just use 👏 your 👏 cooldowns 👏

#

all of them

#

Every cooldown has a use

leaden ginkgo
#

so they’re are universal cool downs like my 1-4 and non universals like my stuns or def boosts

faint flare
#

Your defensive cooldowns

little swift
#

!faq abc super important

zinc orbitBOT
#
Always Be Casting
faint flare
#

Shit like rampart, vengeance, ARNS LENGTH And reprisal

little swift
#

You want you global cooldown to always be rolling

open rivet
#

Is there a way to check who replaces waypoints to intentionally mess with new people?

little swift
#

After that its just a matter of cycling defensive cooldowns

#

And not dumping them all at once

forest sage
#

what waypoints?

faint flare
#

Waymarks

forest sage
#

oh ingame?

#

don't think so

leaden ginkgo
#

What’s a good cycle I’m getting used to mouse and keyboard

little swift
#

Because you want to be tanky for longer rather than sorta not squishy for 10s and then paper after

faint flare
#

Your defensive cooldown cycle will vary in content

#

But usually have at least 1 up

little swift
#

Do it by how long the cooldown is generally

faint flare
#

Trash does MUCH more damage than bosses

little swift
#

You want to use a longe r cooldown one earlier so that it has time to recharge before your next pull

faint flare
#

Dont save them for bosses

#

Bossrs are pathetic

leaden ginkgo
#

So use fort first then when that runs out reprisal and then after that arms?

forest sage
#

yeah trash is where you take the most dmg

#

well it'll depend on the pull and such, also don't use a cooldown is stuff is almost dead

#

you'll want it for the next pull

little swift
#

Arms length should be combined with another cd usually

#

Since while it slows attack speed it doesn't reduce the damage the attacks do

forest sage
#

reprisal+arm's length is usually what I couple, since they're both somewhat weak on their own

little swift
#

I typically squeeze it together with reprisal

leaden ginkgo
#

ahh makes sense thank you

forest sage
#

you also get another defensive a bit later(big % one, but shorter duration/longer cooldown)

little swift
#

Warriors get

#

!action vengeance

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Vengeance** : lvl 38 MRD WAR (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces damage taken by 30% and delivers an attack with a potency of 55 every time you suffer physical damage.
Duration: 15s

leaden ginkgo
#

Oooh

#

Sounds good

little swift
#

This would be the one you want to use first

forest sage
#

warrior also gets self heals and stuff later on

#

and also big dmg burst

leaden ginkgo
#

I’m going for DRK

#

I’ve heard the stories of fell cleave

forest sage
#

DRK is nice at 70+, feels squishy before but is fine if you keep your gear up to par

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah I’m a free player so that suck

#

Can’t afford it At the moment but when I get another job I probs will

faint flare
#

You just lack your most important cooldown sub 70

#

!action The Blackest Night

forest sage
#

well something to look forward to in the future

zinc orbitBOT
#
**The Blackest Night** : lvl 70 DRK (3000 MP) (15.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

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

faint flare
#

This thing

leaden ginkgo
#

You can use that on teammates right I heard you could

forest sage
#

yeah you can

#

although for tanking dungeons it's gonna be on yourself 99% of the time

#

but it has such a low cd you can use it a few times every pull

#

and it negates a ton of dmg as a result

hardy gazelle
#

what do i do with the fish from diadem

leaden ginkgo
#

Does DRK have its own heart attack button?

little swift
#

Should still pop a mitigation cd too with tbn

forest sage
#

you give it to the NPC, then they give you back fish you cna desynth for mats

little swift
#

And yes it does

hardy gazelle
#

kk thats what i thougt ty

little swift
#

!action living dead

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Living Dead** : lvl 50 DRK (300.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Grants the effect of Living Dead. When HP is reduced to 0 while under the effect of Living Dead, instead of becoming KO'd, your status will change to Walking Dead.
Living Dead Duration: 10s
While under the effect of Walking Dead, most attacks will not lower your HP below 1. If, before the Walking Dead timer runs out, HP is 100% restored, the effect will fade. If 100% is not restored, you will be KO'd.
Walking Dead Duration: 10s

hardy gazelle
#

ld is really awkward tho

#

without a whm

little swift
#

Basically the warrior holmgang with a caveat

hardy gazelle
#

and a longer cd

leaden ginkgo
#

Maybe I should attach a macro to that to warn the healer

hardy gazelle
#

its the worst tank invuln

little swift
#

Also longer duration

hardy gazelle
#

2 secs yeah

little swift
#

Absolutely not the worst

hardy gazelle
#

id disagree

forest sage
#

realistially you shouldn't have to use it, and if you do use it it's hard for the healer to get you back up without TBN to mitigate dmg or if the healer is a WHM with benediction

hardy gazelle
#

ive seen many a drk die to it

forest sage
#

although in endgame content you will use it

#

but people are prepared for it at that point

little swift
#

That doesn't mean its the worst aceneo

#

It has the highest durational value

#

Of up to 20s of it

leaden ginkgo
#

When should I use !action Thrill of battle

little swift
#

Its another defensive

faint flare
#

Thrill is basically a shield

warm lily
#

Is there a recommendable guide for GNB?

faint flare
#

It increases your health and heal you

hardy gazelle
#

use thrill either as a 20% shield

#

or as a heal in a pinch

faint flare
#

!faq gnbguide

zinc orbitBOT
little swift
#

Use it for hp

warm lily
#

Ty

hardy gazelle
#

^

#

at lv78 it increases healing received by 20%

#

so you can use it when youre low to help your healers

little swift
#

Drk knight can cheese all 6 tethers of titania ex comfortably alone

#

Should just use it all the time

leaden ginkgo
#

Same cd as rampart so use one after the other ?

little swift
#

Don't hold cds for the next fight

hardy gazelle
#

its a 90 sec cd aswell yes

little swift
leaden ginkgo
#

Rep has 60 sec
Fort and thrill have 90 sec
Arm has 120 sec

#

So fort then rep+arm and use thrill if I need it

#

But don’t use fort twice in one pull

little swift
#

now if you said its because the caveat of requiring to be healed can be argued as difficult to manage

#

Thats more reasonable

leaden ginkgo
#

Expert roulette denies me the ability to queue until I “complete the following : ???” What is that?

faint flare
#

Msq dungeon

#

Expert always has the 2 latest dungeons in it

#

Which are both in the msq

#

So finish the msq up to the latest dungeon

#

And complete it

little swift
#

you need to have both completed, not unlocked to do expert roulette

leaden ginkgo

I see. Thank you

leaden ginkgo
#

any tips on how to level my dps classes ? potd or squadrons dungeons ? or smth else maybe ?

cunning tide
#

What blue quests should I do cause it doesn't seem like some of them aren't that important and don't unlock much

forest sage
#

class quests, the rest tend to be somewhat optional

faint flare
#

Anything that unlocks a new feature

forest sage
#

they unlock dungeon or old content or features(like treasure maps) but can ignore them until you need them usually

faint flare
#

Like mounts, challenge logs, dungeons etc

cunning tide
#

Ok thank you

#

weather swaps at 12am, 8am, 4pm Eorzea time

forest sage
#

it's usually off by a few minutes(ingame time), like it'll swap at 8:03 or 8:02 or whatever but yeah

vernal urchin
#

dungeons queue time can be bad for dps though, so potd can be faster sometimes

#

hunting log and fates if you're waiting on a queue

leaden ginkgo
#

what about squadrons ? I remember getting good amount of xp with them one day

forest sage
#

they're fine if you have them leveled

leaden ginkgo
#

potd/hoh still better I guess ?

vernal urchin
#

those are pretty good too, though i found managing the AI to be a bit frustrating

forest sage
#

potd is about the same

#

so matter of what you prefer doing, and iirc squadrons have "holes" where you're missing a dungeon

open rivet
#

squadrons are good if you want to play smth else or watch a movie while doing it

forest sage
#

you can do that in potd too though

leaden ginkgo
#

I see, I think i'll stick to potd/hoh, btw is HoH better than potd over lvl 61 or they give same amount of xp ?

twilit arch
#

yes you should switch to HoH at 61+

vernal urchin
#

hoh is better for 61 and above, yes

forest sage
#

potd doesn't scale past 59 so it gives garbage xp at 60+

twilit arch
#

71+ should do bozja or trust dungeons (assuming dungeon queues are meh)

leaden ginkgo
#

I found on internet potd is best to tag for floor 51-60 and 21-30 for hoh, is that right ?

vernal urchin
#

yep

leaden ginkgo
#

but I also need to progress into bozja to get my relic, maybe thats why I dont feel it painful lol

#

Is POTD worth checking out if you want to level an alt and haven’t done it before or is it dead/hard to get into content?

warm lily
#

Potd is just boring after a while

#

It's fast leveling

forest sage
#

it's worth it for leveling alts, it's not dead content BUT you need to get to 51-60, which can be annoying since 41-50 require people aren't sniffing glue

warm lily
#

Which is hard to find

leaden ginkgo
#

The floor 51 to 60?

forest sage
#

yeah

#

once you clear 50, you can start at 51

warm lily
#

Glue sniffers populate the lower floors

forest sage
#

so it's a one time unlock thing

past sinew
#

Can I run the same Lv 60 dungeon over and over for the bitter memories?

forest sage
#

yes

past sinew
#

Thanks

#

And I only need one variant?

forest sage
#

yeah just the one memory for that step

leaden ginkgo
#

I see, thank you. I might try it out when I level MNK

forest sage

well 6x that one memory

past sinew
#

Awesome

warm lily
#

Think there's a potd guide

past sinew
#

Resistance has been piss easy

warm lily
#

That tells you how many runs

forest sage
#

you can also solo potd up to 51 if you're playing a semi decent class, it's not really too hard imo, although you'll probably have to run 1-30 twice for aether levels

#

I mean you can solo it on everything, it's just easier on some classes than others

cold steppe
#

is armory bonus from higher gatherer class to lower a thing? just like combat classes?

twilit arch
#

no

#

crafting/gathering classes do not get armoury bonus

cold steppe
#

gochu

gritty oracle
#

Is the only chest that drops Fine Wax the one right after the first locked door in haukke? or can other bronze chests drop it too?

simple shore
#

So not the "first" locked door

gritty oracle
#

yeah. I was talking about that chest

simple shore
#

Just making sure, because theres another locked door before that one that also has a chest in it that DOESNT have anything in it

cold steppe
#

actually isnt retelling preety nice way to get best materias? Assuming the glamour stuff from this arent limited only to faux? Or mouts/whatever else is there?

gritty oracle
#

The glam from faux is exclusive iirc. If you want materia, go on a hunt train and earn stellaclusters, or do pixies.

#

using faux leaves to buy materia is incredibly wasteful

cold steppe
#

i just wondered if it's viable alternative since i was able to clear it, that's all

faint flare
#

Well faux hallow/Khloe certificates

#

Is how you get the leave mounts and minions

simple shore
#

Battle materia should be obtained via hunts. Its not even close in terms of how efficient it is compared to all other options

cold steppe
#

gochu, tho my server hunt discord doesnt seem to be very alive, right now at least. lol

gritty oracle
#

pixies is a good alternative to hunts if you got limited play time or aren't online when hunts happen

manic flare
#

what does the faux hollows glam look like?

cold steppe
#

i'll take a look at pixies then, i assume you mean the pixie tribe?

fervent nexus
#

Should I use allagan tomestones on materias while leveling up?

faint flare
#

No

#

Materia is a endgame thing

fervent nexus
#

is there any good use for tomes while leveling or should I just buy gear ups?

faint flare
#

Buy gear

fervent nexus
#

ok thanks

faint flare
#

Its the best gear at that level cap

#

And will last you 5 levels when story and dungeons give higher ilvl gear

hardy gazelle
#

what do i do with the grade 4 skybuilders mats

#

if i cant craft

faint flare
#

Sell them for money

jaunty gorge
#

What are the talles exterior furnishings I can jump on? Trying to get on my roof

obsidian patio
#

The heaven on high miniature is your best bet

#

It’s basically a mini jumping puzzle on its own

jaunty gorge
#

O

obsidian patio
#

I wonder if Kupo has it on iglam...

lavish vortex
#

hi!!, if i want to transfer from Crystal to Aether, thats possible with the Home World Transfer service that costs 18$

faint flare
#

Yee

obsidian patio
#

!iglam Miniature Heaven-on-High

zinc orbitBOT
jaunty gorge
#

That looks taller than the edge partition I have rn

lavish vortex
#

Sorry, @faint flare that Yee was for my question?

obsidian patio
#

For a direct visual reference, here’s mine sitting at our FC medium house

faint flare
#

Yes

jaunty gorge
#

Thanks that will work

lavish vortex
#

thanks!

jaunty gorge
#

Wanted to make sure before buying it for 180k

frozen girder
#

How am I supposed to craft this...

#

It's all VIII materia ._.

#

What can I do better XD

faint flare
#

You NEED to overmeld

#

And abuse the procs

#

The expert receipes are aimed at people in BiS gear and who know how to craft and use the procs

obsidian patio
#

Expert Crafts basically require pentamelded gear, max CP, and making use of the procs

#

It’s not something you can use the same rotation on every time

cold steppe
#

is there any guide for scraps for from the ishgardian place thingy?

frozen girder
#

Cries

#

Do they at least give like 5 stamps

#

._.

faint flare
#

No

#

They're purely for score

#

And ranking

obsidian patio
#

They’re meant for ranking on the leaderboard

tired zealot
#

anyone know why my client isn't downloading the newest patch?

cold steppe
#

yeah, they added new glamour stuff to the shop so i wondered

obsidian patio
#

Oh you mean earning scrips? Do the level 80 non-expert recipes

#

Or whatever highest level you can do

cold steppe
#

hmm mooglethink

obsidian patio
#

The base 80 recipes are very easy to do, and can be macro’d

cold steppe
#

yeah i dont have lvl 80 crafter quite yet but i suppose it can wait until i actually manage to lvl up my first crafter

faint flare
#

And gather stuff in the diadem for extra scrips

#

Basically jusy

tired zealot
#

anyone know why my client isn't downloading the newest patch?

faint flare
#

Take part

#

Really

elfin edge
#

I think the ishgard fate is pretty good for leveling if you happen to be around

cold steppe
#

dont you need to gather stuff in diadem to do the things in the first place?

elfin edge
#

the fate is just a click quest in the firmament

obsidian patio
elfin edge
#

it happens every 8 hours or so? depending on progress I think

#

doesn't require crafting

elfin edge
#

but for regular ishgard rest crafting you could also just buy the mats, but I'm not sure if the prices went up or down because everyone's trying to rank

cold steppe
#

i see

elfin edge
#

if you have decent gatherers you should just gather to level them up too

obsidian patio
#

Prices are very chaotic at the moment

#

I recommend buying out the cheaper materials and manually gather the expensive ones if you want to be a mix of time-efficient and Gil-efficient

#

If you can gather the materials, that is

cold steppe
#

as for the event, i participated in it only once and well, it was hard to even click on the thing:x

faint flare
#

Turn off names

#

And/or hold X by default to click through things

#

Or numpad 0

cold steppe
#

hmm

#

i see, i'll try that then, thanks

elfin edge
#

do the building sites disappear as they get completed?

#

I wasn't sure if it was just my game not loading some of them or they get "built" so you're supposed to go to different ones

faint flare
#

Yes

elfin edge
#

ah okay

faint flare
#

They respawn when you do a full loop

elfin edge
#

heh my first time doing it yesterday and sadly I only got to 4

copper skiff
#

hello just got the game and i dont know what server to pick (im in eu) is there any server recomendations?

faint flare
#

!faq worldpick

zinc orbitBOT
#
Which world should I pick?

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.

Notable worlds:

  • Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
  • Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
  • Moogle (Large amount of French players)
  • Shiva (Large amount of German players)
faint flare
#

Tldr: pick a data centre for your region (chaos or light) and picked a preferred server if possible

copper skiff
#

thank you

tropic notch
#

can you get conjoint house ownership?

#

like with your in game partner

obsidian patio
#

You can have people as tenants for shared personal housing but no true co-ownership

tropic notch
#

jeeeez

#

can tenants decorate?

obsidian patio
#

If you give them the permission to, yes

tropic notch
#

oh good

obsidian patio
#

They can also tend the garden

tropic notch
#

so it's basically co-ownership

obsidian patio
tropic notch
#

sweet

frozen girder
#

Can I make all of my battle retainers the same job?

#

Is there any reason not to?

tired zealot
#

anyone able to help with the ffxiv a version update is required 1012 loop on loading the game up?

obsidian patio
#

Retainers can be the same job, no direct downside to it

#

Besides not having the gatherer ones which may or may not be better depending on what you need

frozen girder
#

So I can just use 4 Arcanist retainers

#

And then 3 and 3 for the gatherers

#

Not including fish

obsidian patio
#

Yep

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there any way to play the game with the subtitles for what the Japanese audio is saying, instead of having the english script be backed by the jp va?

#

Like, I want the dialogue to match the text but I wanna stick with jp audio

obsidian patio
#

You’d likely need to change the entire launcher to JP, though I’d have to double check

#

Just to clarify, you want JP audio with JP subtitles?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah, so that what's being said matches up

#

It's not really a necessity but it'd be cool if that were possible

obsidian patio
#

@quick pine sorry to bug, but is the above possible without making the client language JP?

obsidian patio
leaden ginkgo
#

Curiously

#

May have asked this but what’s the deal with changing FC GC?

#

Does it reset rank or just change the home city

obsidian patio
#

...is it even possible to change the GC your FC is aligned to? mooglethink

#

Might be a leader-only thing since I’ve never seen the setting anywhere

#

But I assume it just changes which GC you go to for doing FC stuff

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes but unsure if it will screw anything up

#

Like I wanna swap them but only if I won’t lose anything

raven sage
#

You lose standing but I don't think it touches anything else

leaden ginkgo
#

If anyone knows pls @ me 🙂

#

Standing as in “rank”?

#

Or just like rep

raven sage
#

rep yeah

obsidian patio
#

Does the rep even do anything?

raven sage
#

It shouldn't touch rank at all

leaden ginkgo
#

So I won’t lose seals or rank?

#

Just don’t wanna fuck my Fc up

gritty oracle
#

you can change your FC's GC but it will slowly decay

#

I mean the previous GC's rep

#

@leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

Awesome but I’d keep rank and seals?

#

For FC actions ?

cold steppe
#

can you lvl fisher on diadem just like gatherer/miner or do they need to be lvled "normally" ?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yea you can do fisher there

faint flare
#

You can

#

There's spots for fisher

leaden ginkgo
#

Just synth stuff

#

Fish off the edge

cold steppe
#

ic ic, great

#

since i kinda want to do gatherers first before crafters since thier gear is the same for the most part, it'll help with armory management for me

hot eagle
#

bait for it you can buy in diadem or firmament

leaden ginkgo
#

Do em at the same time imho

cold steppe
#

thats the plan Zerg

#

i want to do gatherers together basically

#

thats why i wonder

#

thanks~

leaden ginkgo
#

@gritty oracle any clear thoughts oj rank of loss or action seals?

raven sage
leaden ginkgo
#

But not rank or currency?

raven sage
#

No like i said

leaden ginkgo
#

That’s not bad 🤔

gritty oracle
raven sage
#

It shouldn't touch anything other than the reputations and their bonuses

leaden ginkgo
#

My smol house is in Mists, pretty nice spot so I don’t know if I want limsa GC or Uldah

raven sage
#

Well unless you're trying to max out more than one (which you can't) you have time to think about it

leaden ginkgo
#

Lol I just dunno where is optimal or if there’s a difference

raven sage
#

Limsa is the most out of the way if that helps

#

Since it requires 2 loading screens

leaden ginkgo
#

I’ve seen

#

But I just worry I’ll lose muh rank

#

Lol

raven sage
#

FC rank won't change if you mean that

leaden ginkgo
#

Tho gridania isn’t bad

#

Oh?

raven sage
#

Yeah i said that

leaden ginkgo
#

🤔

raven sage
#

Nothing changes but the standing

leaden ginkgo
#

Can you change personal Gc allegiance ?

faint flare
#

You can swap gcs

placid raptor
#

quick question. im on free trial but heard i can become a scholar. i got my arcanist to 31 and finished all arcanist guild quest. where do i goto get the scholar class?

faint flare
#

Arcanist guild after passing Slyph management msq

gritty oracle
#

arcanist's guild is smn

faint flare
#

No

raven sage
#

both are in the arcanists guild

faint flare
#

It starts in arcanist

#

Then it moves to Maradurer

gritty oracle
#

fair

leaden ginkgo
#

Danke

placid raptor
#

wheres maradurer?

faint flare
#

Maradurer guild is upper limsa

#

Again, IT STARTS at the arcanist guild

manic flare
#

@leaden ginkgo do you plaay starcraft?

leaden ginkgo
#

When I was young :3

faint flare
#

You need to past slyph management msq ontop of finishing arcanist quests

leaden ginkgo
#

XD

faint flare
tacit venture
#

I swear..that I'm max height Hrothgar, but this other mancat is way bigger than me ;~; is there something I'm missing or is he just clearly the alpha?

little swift
#

@leaden ginkgo not the correct channel for shitposting thanks

tacit venture
#

is like the outfit or shoes making him bigger*

gritty oracle
tacit venture
#

hm

#

ohh I guess that was the case..the height difference is pretty big then

#

thanks for clearing that up

cold steppe
#

are there any suggestions for your free 2 retainers?

#

class wise

elfin edge
#

I used one for my main class to get handmedowns and hunts and one for a gatherer

leaden ginkgo
#

Is it possible to create 2 characters on one world with entry sub?

faint flare
#

No

leaden ginkgo
#

Cause I swear I was able to create 2 on Zodiark yesterday with entry

#

Unless its only on zodiark

#

Or something is weird

faint flare
#

Or the very least you wouldn't be able to play it

twilit arch
#

definitely can't make a second character on the same server on entry

leaden ginkgo
#

I have no clue then :I

#

Hmm, what if you switch to standard while entry is still ongoing?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

You just pay the difference

leaden ginkgo
#

So it must be that then

#

Cause I did make 2 on Zodiark and I wondered how, cause I know entry only allows 1

#

Oh well
