terse grail
#

technically the entry isnt ongoing, since you payed the difference you are now on standard sub

leaden ginkgo
#

Does that mean another 30 days is automatically added then?

terse grail
#

im not 100% sure, but you should be able to just check your transactions and that should tell you

leaden ginkgo
#

Because sub did end yesterday, on 17th

#

And I dont plan to sub for a while now

terse grail
#

i dont think it adds another 30 days just to swap from entry -> standard

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah, it probably just allowed more char creation

terse grail
#

i would just check your mogstation account, that should tell you everything

quick pine
#

No, I don't think so

leaden ginkgo
#

Aw darn, alright

How to upgrade :o

vestal bay
#

Hey guys, new to the game here. Im a level 12 archer, and I REALLY want a minion. Which is the easiest way of getting one? Thanks!

faint flare
#

From achievement certificates at Jonahas in Old gridina

#

Only costs 2 which is 100 achievement points

#

Which you'll get naturally via story and playing

vestal bay
#

Oh great! Thanks

terse grail
little swift
#

and turn in the right amounts

frozen girder
#

How do I know how much to get

terse grail

forest sage
#

you can see the numbers on the NPC you turn in at too, the guy in the MCH shop

kind plank
#

do people occasionally form organized PF for things like the binding coil of Bahamut or is that just a thing I'll have to hope for my FC to do? thinkcoco

#

I've been queuing for four hours for the second turn and is sad lmao

faint flare
#

Only unsynced

leaden ginkgo
#

Is there anyway to set something like that I get notified if certain things get posted on mb?

forest sage
#

PF only for coil, can find people willing to run you through unsynced, synced would be harder

faint flare
#

No one ques for what's basically savage

warm snow
#

No one likes the binding coil of bahamut

#

Use party finder and/or do it unsynced once you're level 80

forest sage
#

I like it, it's just not something you can queue for since it's not in any roulette

#

well maybe mentor

faint flare
#

Not even mentor iirc

#

Cause its savage difficulty

leaden ginkgo
#

where is the FFXIV crash log file located

scenic jungle
#

is there a way to tell what hairstyles I've unlocked? Don't want to buy something from the MB if I already have it. Will it not let me?

leaden ginkgo
#

or error log?

forest sage
#

the hairstyler lets you check what you have

long tree
#

This is the final Firmament, right? Does that mean I have to acquire the mounts with Skybuilder's Scrips before this phase is over or will the Firmament remain open forever afterward?

forest sage
#

it's the final ranking, it'll stay open after that

#

at the very least until they announce something about it

faint flare
#

Restoration is permanent until we're told otherwise

tacit venture
#

huh

#

what gives

#

I was invited to do my first 1v1 in bozja

#

but then it says I couldn't..?

#

"You were unable to join the following critical engagement: Aces High"

obsidian patio
#

It means you weren’t chosen

tacit venture
#

oh

#

I see mbad, my friend made it sound like if you see it then you got it

sharp spindle
#

how long does it usually take to get purchases from the mog station optional item store?

faint flare
#

Qualifiying for duels is easy

warped nest
#

Account wide item will take longer

faint flare
#

Just dont get vuln stacks

warped nest
#

Otherwise, anywhere between 5-15 minutes, I suppose

faint flare
#

But its still randomly selected from all qualified

#

You NEED specific actions for the 1v1s otherwise you're guaranteed to fail

sharp spindle
#

@warped nest it is the Collegiate attire

obsidian patio
#

All 3 need Lost Manawall.
Lyon’s Duel needs Dispel
Fire Guy’s duel needs Esuna or the lost action equivalent potion

faint flare
#

And you can buy the fragments for those actions via clusters

cold steppe
#

are healers class with lowest vitality stat? my AST have like 508 IL with roughly 5000 VIT, but i've seen some dancer at 515 having almost 6000, which is preety big diffrence in hp pool...

obsidian patio
#

They’re tied with casters for lowest HP

cold steppe
#

so thats normal i take it, well then mooglethink

obsidian patio
#

Yeah it goes tanks > dragoon > other melee + ranged > casters+healers

#

No wait, looks like dragoon gear has the same bit as melee/ranged

cold steppe
#

i guess im just surprised since i thought healers would have a bit bigger hp pool given thier dps isnt big, while providing the way of actually sustaining the fight

faint flare
#

They can heal and shield themselves

#

So

#

And just the nature of cloth armour

cold steppe
#

fair

#

it makes me kinda concerned about savages, if i'll ever attempt those cuz i was watching some streamer attemtping e11s and there were times they had like lower 5% side of hp after the mechanic, tho i assume if the damage was "magic" healers would just get less damage outright anyway

#

but i assume it's balanced the way if done correctly everything survives anyway

faint flare
#

This tier is very high damage in particular

#

You're meant to be mitigating aoes anyway

obsidian patio
#

Yeah casters and healers have more magic defense

#

Which is the damage they’ll be taking most of the time

#

Since most raidwide aoes and mechanics tend to be magical

cold steppe
#

gochu

faint flare
#

Then E12 icicles show up and rip your ass open

cold steppe
#

also im aware about mitigating damage, if you're talking about shielding here, i already noticed it being very usefull in unreal titan tbh so far as i tried playing around it

#

basically always using nocturnal sect with WHM lol

warm snow
#

There's more to it than shields

faint flare
#

^

warm snow
#

There's tank mitigation via reprisal

cold steppe
#

damage reductions also exist im aware.

warm snow
#

Addle from casters, ranged have a 10% (I think) damage reduction for nearby party skill

#

Some stuff I'm convinced scales on how many people are alive, like the e9s transitions

faint flare
#

Some attacks do

#

See Relativity casts in E12s

warm snow
#

I might, if I get there...

cold steppe
#

thanks for explanation overally anyway, appreciate it, tho idk how i actually didnt noticed that healers are tied to lowest raw hp pool while playing thru basically whole MSQ lol

warm snow
#

Healers are traditionally the squishiest party members in rpgs

ruby plover
#

for wondrous tails, how many floors of potd do i have to do for it to count

leaden ginkgo
#

Can anyone help me with tanking, i want to do msq daily for xp, but I've never done 2 tanks trials and stuff, do I keep grit on for drk if I dont want to be main tank or what?

#

I'm not sure if I keep enmity on if I'm not the main tank or do I turn it off

obsidian patio
#

So 1-10 or 51-60 is enough

obsidian patio
#

Or if the tank dies and I can immediately be the next target without needing to worry about the boss smacking a DPS

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh ok, so I do keep it off unless there are adds that come during boss or if the main tank dies

forest sage
#

I turn it on after a little bit to secure 2nd spot in case MT dies, but in MSQ runs no one's gonna die anyway

naive kraken
#

WELL

random ledge
#

So I beat E4S Stone Sky Sea as a DRG with 14 secs left, my gear is 460-510, and my overall ilvl is 476. Should I be getting a faster time or is that good?

rigid narwhal
#

14s in plenty, but you're at a higher ilvl than BiS was during that patch

random ledge
#

Ah ok

rigid narwhal
#

particularly if your weapon is 510

random ledge
#

My weapon is 485

rigid narwhal
#

yeah okay

#

it would make a somewhat significant difference

random ledge
#

I’ll go for my 510 weapon then, thanks

rigid narwhal
#

np

#

you'd be better off trying current patch stuff

#

e4s required 75~k rdps to clear

#

while e9s (the lower floor of this patch) requires 97~k

ruby plover
#

@obsidian patio ty

random ledge
#

I see

warm snow
# random ledge I see

485 is the base relic weapon. So it might be worth upgrading armor via tomestones where possible and aiming for the 515 weapon from emerald extreme. You can also upgrade the relic weapon to 500 and eventually beyond in later patches

Why Stone, Sky, Sea is a bad metric to measure DPS
  1. SSS does not account for a job’s RDPS contribution via skills like Battle Voice
  2. SSS is a 3 minute burst window where you adjust your rotation to fit in that period and does not reflect a realistic raid scenario
  3. Different jobs will be in peaks and troughs of their burst windows
  4. Different jobs have different SSS dps requirements
  5. SSS is not accurately tuned for the jobs they are supposed to represent in most cases
  6. 3 minutes is short enough to be able to be affected by lucky DH Crit bursts
  7. Certain jobs gain dps by having additional party members like Dancer/Monk
obsidian patio
#

Yeah you’re outgearing an outdated fight that barely anyone does nowadays

#

So clearing the dummy for it doesn’t really mean anything

random ledge
#

Ah

#

I’m on console so I have no choice 😭

obsidian patio
#

pat pat ;-;

faint flare
#

Your best bet is get a friend who uses act to do it for you

random ledge
#

Yeah

patent citrus
#

Anyone experience in fashion report could suggest me any boots beside ala mighan fending Calligae??

#

Esp for someone who only has ARR unlocked

#
Fashion Report for the week of 1/12-1/18

Resets in 0 Days, 7 Hours, 11 Minutes, 7 Seconds

whole wasp
#

are you going for 80 or 100?

patent citrus
#

80 sorry.

fluid glacier
patent citrus
#

Not sure how the number works. If i buy one of the crafted headgear, would i make it to 80?

manic flare
#

how do you change the camera height in gpose?

#

@patent citrus probably not

whole wasp
# patent citrus 80 sorry.

you can try using ala mihgan shoes of crafting/gathering but they are crafted only so they have to be bought on the marketboard. Otherwise, use any random shoe dyed soot black and pick one from the other 3 categories

manic flare
#

you might also try using jet black dye instead of soot black dye

whole wasp
#

so false nails or thorax for top and gloves if you have them unlocked

manic flare
#

since jet black gives u one additional point

#

over soot black

#

but again i dont think it's worth the trouble

whole wasp
#

can also farm gubal library for the dungeon drop for less $$

manic flare
#

gubal drops jet black dye?

patent citrus
#

Righto ty ty

whole wasp
#

for the green gloves

patent citrus
#

Ill try to mix and match i guess 😄

manic flare
#

he says he only has ARR unlocked i think

#

i dont think he can do gubal yet

whole wasp
#

the only way to get jet black dye for free(without mogstation) is from the marketboard or from retainer's ventures

#

ah darn. uhhh claws of the beast from Golden Saucer might work for gloves

#

since false nails and claws of the beast are usually interchangable

#

but im not 100% sure

patent citrus
#

Ok

manic flare
#

btw

#

if u get 4 tries

#

to hit 80

#

so u can experiment a bit

#

but again, i dont think worth the time or money

#

since there's a new fashion report every week

#

and some of them are ridiculously easy to achieve

#

i almost even didn't do it this week, since the foot piece is kind of a hassle to get

frozen girder
#

Will this be available forever?

faint flare
#

Yes

frozen girder
#

Okay so I can sell it now while it's 2m?

#

I really want the jacket XD

faint flare
#

Yes

manic flare
#

is aesthete gear also the best gear for main-hand/off-hand?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

For now anyway

#

Just abit yes

#

More freedom in stats with melds

tropic frigate
#

Is it a good idea to recruit technically every applicant to your squad?

manic flare
#

it depends

frozen girder
#

I haven't touched squads

manic flare
#

sometimes u want specific combination of classes, but u can always change their class for an EXP penalty

whole wasp
#

sure, the difference is mostly cosmetics

manic flare
#

also sometimes you want a certain aesthetic

whole wasp
#

you can use company seals to change the squaddie's class directly anyway

manic flare
#

cuz your adventure squad people all look different

tropic frigate
#

but aren't they sorta seen as collectibles

whole wasp
#

yea but you cant get them all so pick whoever you like

tropic frigate
#

Let me rephrase, is there even a limit to recruiting

#

ah

whole wasp
#

yes there is a limit

tropic frigate
#

ok

manic flare
#

this is what they all look like

tropic frigate
#

and let's say you dismiss one, can you get said recruit again later?

manic flare
#

yes

#

it's rng

tropic frigate
#

ohh

manic flare
#

you can go for just the tough guys or pretty girls

#

ur call

whole wasp
#

i went for all potatoes

manic flare
#

i fired all my potatoes

#

they weren't welcome

whole wasp
#

D:

manic flare
#

i wish u could change the squadron sargeant tho

tropic frigate
#

lol

manic flare
#

the maelstrom one is a potato

#

i think i might switch GC so i wont have a potatoe for a sargeant

whole wasp
#

D:
D:

manic flare
#

do u know what the adder or the immortal flame sargeant looks like?

faint flare
#

Flames is a roe

#

Male

plain python
#

can you track your progress of getting combat/trade mentor status?

whole wasp
#

yes by using the achievements log

#

use the crafter collectable (i made this) and gatherer collectable (i gathered this) achivement to track how many collectables you still have to get

#

for combat, you can track your dungeon completion with the dungeon master achivement and obviously commendations is on your character profile

leaden ginkgo
#

Do people use the market board for fraud or something ? I'm seeing items i bought for 1000 and someone is selling it for a billion

whole wasp
#

people are free to put up joke listings and people are also free to buyout the joke listings

manic flare
#

@leaden ginkgo it's also a way to get extra storage

#

since items on sale on your retainer does not take up retainer inventory space

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh shit true

dreamy warren
#

What is the cutscene or group of videos that occur before The Heroes Gauntlet? Are they in the Undending Journey?

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok but what do people mean buy they're selling raids and Savages im the party finder ?

#

Thanks for the answers

manic flare
#

selling raids?

#

wdym

leaden ginkgo
#

Yea

#

In the party finder description

manic flare
#

my guess is some kind of RMT activity

leaden ginkgo
#

"selling Eden's promise,blu,Ultimates, primals"

manic flare
#

maybe a gil/cash transaction for a clear

leaden ginkgo
#

Isn't that against tos ?

faint flare
#

They usually sell clears for real money

#

And they control your account for it

#

SE cant do much about it cause they dont speak about such transactions in game and SE doesn't take 3rd party evidence really

#

So they get away with it

whole wasp
#

selling clears for gil is not against TOS unfortunately

manic flare
#

really?

whole wasp
#

specifically selling anything for real money is against TOS

manic flare
#

that's surprising

#

oh, u said gil

#

not real money

#

well if you hand them control of your account

#

what's to prevent them from emptying your character's gil stash?

faint flare
#

Nothing

whole wasp
#

piloting is against TOS. but if they somehow manage to drag your ass through the fight, its not against TOS

#

yea but it will also ruin their reputation. There is still a risk tho

manic flare
#

can't thye just create a new account?

#

or change name

leaden ginkgo
#

They're probably already on an alt to begin with

#

If they're doing sketchy shit

sullen lark
#

How non-viable is it to have two WHM for Eden Savage?

faint flare
#

Its the worst healer pair

manic flare
#

why is that

faint flare
#

Because you have no raid wide mitigation or shields outside of temperance

#

And this tier hits fucking hard

#

Like shields are KINDA NEEDED

sullen lark
faint flare
#

Like have fun healing Cycles in e11s or e12 icicles

#

Or having no shields for Relativity casts

#

You're basically down 1 healer in terms of mitigation

warped nest
#

SCH/SCH is terrible, but not as terrible as WHM/WHM

#

Is that correct?

faint flare
#

At least with sch/sch, you have shields and scholar itself has a very good suite of off global heals

manic flare
#

whats the best combination?

faint flare
#

Any non duplicate

sullen lark
#

It should be WHM and AST

#

but I know nothing about combos so

dense hound
#

I always thought WHM and SCH was great to cover all bases.

warped nest
#

Correct me if I am wrong, last time I check, doesn't AST shield have some issue with crit or...?

dense hound
#

But then I remember that AST has damage.

#

*damage buffs

faint flare
#

Ast shields don't stack with scholar

silver ruin
#

^

#

ast goes regen if theres a sch

manic flare
#

so AST is in between WHM and SCH in terms of shield potency?

faint flare
#

But Scholar/diurnal Ast is prerty good

dense hound
#

Ye. Regen Potency too

silver ruin
#

wh,m has no shields but a single target every 30s

faint flare
#

All the raid buffs

warped nest
#

WHM has 1 single target shield

#

It barely counts as a tool

dense hound
#

SCH has... what, four, five ways to put shields on the party?

#

Six? Seven?

silver ruin
#

3

#

spreadlo, seraph, succor

warped nest
#

Yeah

silver ruin
#

it has damage reduc tho

dense hound
#

I was unfortunately including the thing that spreads a given shield to local party members in that, my bad.

#

SCH is the job i'm least familiar with.

warped nest
#

Asylum is regen + more healing receive (high level trait) right

dense hound
#

Yeah

faint flare
#

Yes

warped nest
#

SCH bubble is mitigation + regen (high level trait)

dense hound
#

AST "bubble" is damage/burst heal on a timer.

faint flare
#

And collective

silver ruin
#

^

dense hound
#

Oh, my bad. Yes, collective

#

That's damage reduction and regen but the AST can't do anything.

silver ruin
#

yes it can

dense hound
#

But hey, one of those two sticks around afterward.

silver ruin
#

you dont stay still for both stances

warped nest
#

Collective is mitigation + applying regen/shield buff

faint flare
#

You just flash it

dense hound
#

My apologies again.

warped nest
#

Unless you are talking the best combination measured and observed from high end raids

#

Tbh, any non duplicate pair are good

silver ruin
#

would be sch/ast for buffs

#

for the best comp

warped nest
#

Yeah

silver ruin
#

otherwise it doesnt really matter

#

just so no dupes

simple shore
#

So - not exactly a Q&H question but - do we have any sense of when Ishgard housing is going to arrive yet?

faint flare
#

No

warped nest
#

Eventually, maybe

faint flare
#

Not even confirmed at all

silver ruin
#

^

simple shore
#

Ugh

faint flare
#

If anything, no earlier than 6.0

silver ruin
#

no earlier than 6.x1 probably or whatever

#

they wouldnt drop housing with a brand new expansion

faint flare
#

Adding a full housing area is like a expansion type thing

#

Yeag

manic flare
#

@simple shore it's possible ishgard restoration may stop being a thing if they release housing in ishgard

manic flare
#

so you are tradding one thing for another

silver ruin
#

they never said that

#

they're keeping it in

#

theres just no more ranking for saint titles

simple shore
#

That seems highly unlikely that they would remove the most popular crafting feature they've ever created

warped nest
#

Following are just my assumption: housing is not top priority feature, with covid affecting work flow, if they have to push something down the line. Housing is probably the easiest target.

silver ruin
warped nest
#

Yes

manic flare
#

yes

whole wasp
#

yes

simple shore
#

Yes, that's the moogle tribe mount

silver ruin
#

ok cool thanks

warped nest
#

The dandelion puffy

#

Soft and fluffy

silver ruin
#

ye just was double checking

#

30+ days of PAIN

#

for that

warped nest
#

Lol

manic flare
#

yea moogle tribes are a bit ridic

simple shore
#

Follow up question - and i realize this is some asked and answered territory but i did just come back like a week ago or so. As i understand it, 5.4 turned auto demolish back on, yes? Has enough time passed for those to already have occurred, or is that still to come?

manic flare
#

making you always run all the way to the other side of the map

#

for a quest objective

warped nest
#

At least they don't always ask for HQ turn in

silver ruin
manic flare
#

they dont?

silver ruin
#

some quests do

warped nest
#

Not always

#

I could have worked that better

#

My bad

silver ruin
simple shore
#

Bah, already. That means ive already missed the "wave" on that one.

faint flare
#

Remember it just froze not reset peoples timers

simple shore
#

Ah, that i didnt know

#

I assumed it was going to be a hard reset on the timers as well

warped nest
#

So if you are 1 day away before the freeze

simple shore
#

What's the default timer?

warped nest
#

45 days iirc

manic flare
#

u really didn't miss out on much, most of the plots that went available for sale, almost always had like 5+ people camping them

faint flare
#

45 days default

simple shore
#

Hmmm

faint flare
#

Once you reset your timer

manic flare
#

so you weren't guaranteed to be able to buy a plot anyway

simple shore
#

Nah, that means the big wave probably hasnt happened yet.

#

There's probably a significant wave coming when that 45 runs out.

verbal rune
#

How do I suspend auto payment for my subscription without nullimg the remaining days?

faint flare
#

Cancel subscription button

simple shore
#

because that would account for everyone who quit during 2020 and never came back

faint flare
#

On Mogstation

silver ruin
faint flare
#

Well everyone who quit after resetting their timers

verbal rune
#

But doing that will null tue remaining days, no?

faint flare
#

No

verbal rune
#

I read it wrong

#

My bad

manic flare
#

is "the burn" considered a huge step up in difficulty from previous dungeons?

#

i've heard people having to do the final boss for 10+ times

simple shore
#

Not particularly. The final boss is just hard for people.

#

and really its just one mechanics thats hard which people dont get

leaden ginkgo
#

It has a dps check and some of the mechanics can be a bit rough at times

faint flare
#

The last boss can be an ass but eh

#

If people stand in bad gonna make it worse

simple shore
#

When the boss at the end disappears, sprint around the edge of the arena until you find it.

#

Thats basically all there is to it

open coral
#

Wait

#

WAIT

#

You can find the last boss in the Burn?

simple shore
#

Yes

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Like any fog mechanic

open coral
#

I have never found it

frozen girder
#

What? There's a boss in the Burn?

faint flare
#

From Nevereep or E11

open coral
#

I always just run and pray

modest current
#

trial account, is it limited on the palace of the dead?

faint flare
#

You need to get close to the edge

manic flare
#

no

#

potd is part of ARR

faint flare
#

No

manic flare
#

trial gives you both ARR+HW

faint flare
#

Potd is techincally HW

#

It was added then

#

Prior to trial being upgraded, trial people Could only go to floor 10

modest current
#

ok I saw a post it was limited to lv 10 but could not verify

faint flare
#

You need to have heavensward to go higher than 10

#

Which trial now includes

modest current
#

other then the not being able to chat in game / free companies this is a great trial

faint flare
#

!faq limitations

#

!faq freetrial

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

Full limitations

manic flare
#

@modest current you can chat if you are in a party i think

#

on the free trial

modest current
#

yes, and just say out loud. Threw me at first how no one was talking in the city

karmic niche
#

so, does the relic replica glow?

warped nest
#

Yes

#

It will match the original

#

So if the original glows, so will the replica

karmic niche
#

ok

#

the lvl 80 relic replica will glow then

agile laurel
#

Replicas are visually identical in every way to precisely what they're a replica of

#

PRECISELY

#

so no

karmic niche
#

oh...

agile laurel
#

the Recollections are not available in replica form

Hi! The Allahabad Tunic of Casting is a direct drop from The Binding Coil of Bahamut Turn 2? And is it dyeable?

warped nest
#

You can search it up in Garlandtools (website)

#

To check for its sources and whether if it is dyeable

#

Look for the dye icon on top right (looks like a drop of ink being poured out of a potion bottle)

#

That version isn't dyeable

The replica version you craft is

#

Some just randomly get the item from a quick venture (if applicable) and just want to sell it fast

#

Or the item was originally overpriced as hell due to being cheap to make and they’re wanting to shake things up

modest current
#

I just found out assault 1 and 2 are different spells

#

Is there a way to set a macro to swap between ruin 1 and 2 depending if it can be cast?

forest sage
#

no

obsidian patio
#

Macros are very dumb in this game for combat

forest sage
#

well maybe, not too sure how it works, but you wouldn't want to do that anyway generally speaking, doesn't queue and is bad habit for when you want ot pool stuff for burst phases

patent citrus
#

i use my brain for macro 😂

modest current
#

So just keep draging my spells around when I get level synced

forest sage
#

that's done automatically

#

I thoguht you meant the stronger ruin

modest current
#

?

forest sage
#

any spell that has multiple ranks is automatically changed when you get synced

obsidian patio
#

Ruin 2 is not always better than Ruin 1

patent citrus
#

I think ruin 2 is the one that cast while repositioning right? 🤔

forest sage
#

they're not the same skill at all

obsidian patio
#

You use Ruin 1 when you don’t need to move or weave in abilities like Energy Drain and Fester

patent citrus
#

ruin 1/3 is the one that sync hehe

modest current
#

different cast time makes them different spells

obsidian patio
#

Ruin 2 is used when you need to move or use stuff like Energy Drain/Fester

patent citrus
#

yeh

forest sage
#

Ruin 1 will be upgraded to Ruin 3 and do more dmg as long as you cast, vs Ruin 2 to be used when you're forced to move

#

also upgrades to Ruin 4 with procs later on

#

but Ruin 1 and 2 are basically 2 "routes", you will need both on your bars

modest current
#

ahhh so I need to rework my hotbars and rotation

wheat plume
#

if I use the player search web site, can I see deleted or banned characters?

forest sage
#

are you summoner or scholar?

patent citrus
#

sch doesnt have ruin 3 hehe

forest sage
#

yeah but talking about 1 and 2 only so might still be SCH

#

before broil

modest current
#

summoner right now I was going to look in to scholar but thats for later

patent citrus
#

oh right 🤦‍♂️

forest sage
#

yeah so you'll need both buttons definitely as part of your main rotation

forest sage
#

well I guess SCH too

#

but Ruin 2 on SCH is used to weave, while on SMN it's integral to your main rotation

#

even at low lvl though, Ruin 1 does 180potency, Ruin 2 does 160

#

so for dmg you'd use Ruin 1

#

when you need to move you use Ruin 2

modest current
#

My thought was the instant cast time would over all equil higher over all damage

forest sage
#

the game has a lot of things like that, bigger number isn't necessarily a better version, and often just a different spell entirely

#

na cause they're both on the same GCD

#

so you cast the same amount of spells regardless

#

Is heavensward the only expansion required to get Ishgard Restoration or do I need to get the other expansions?

you still have to wait 2.5 seconds between casts

might as well stand still and deal more damage for those 2.5 seconds when you can

Anyone has a Idea, why I cant use mooch on fisher?

forest sage
#

need a HQ fish

#

also not everything can be mooched

#

gbenerally only the smaller fishes can be mooched to catch a bigger one, but it's specific types basically

cosmic cloud
#

I think HQ was the reason

forest sage
#

well if it's a fish you can mooch, then you need to catch a HQ one to mooch it

#

or use Mooch II if it's NQ

#

but if it can't be mooched, it can't be mooched

Can the leaders of an fc take decisions that have huge impact to the fc and its members?

forest sage
#

they can steal whatever is in the FC chest, and kick people out of the FC house rooms, and obv kick people out of the FC

#

I think that's about it?

#

so as long as you don't get a room in the FC house and don't put your valuables in the FC chest, the worst thing is getting kicked out

#

which has no penalty

wheat plume
#

lol, yesterday my fc leader told members who donate get rewards divided in both leaders and top3 donators, today they're saying the top3 also get power to decision making.
That's 100% fishi, but I'm kinda new at the game, so I wanna be sure about what they're offering

#

hi!!! question, im on ps4 and when im logging in, connection says poor, is it a square enix thing? or my internet? I’m on PS4 connected to an Ethernet cable and my internet speed is 20 mb so it should be fine on my end right?

forest sage
#

I wouldn't donate fucking shit to a FC I don't know, especially a new-ish FC

#

unless it's friends obviously

wheat plume
#

I wont, no worries, but I wanna see what the leaders keep saying, and also keep in check other members so they dont get robbed

forest sage
#

some FC run events and stuff though and have actual rewards so that's nice enough

#

like my old FC had an event where you had to find various officers in specific spots in the world based on pictures of the place, and at the end they gave mounts and glamours and what not which was fun

forest sage
#

also you might be logged in the wrong datacenter?

#

if you connect to japan from europe, it's... not great, obv

wheat plume
patent citrus
#

@lavish vortex try !faq datacenterip at #kupo-bot-spam

#

and check out which connection + playtime suits you

#

each region has their peak time, match it with your playtime and then consider the ping ^.^

#

so you won't have trouble queueing and finding a party

#

hello! I'm super new to the game, and I came from WoW, so I have some noob-ish questions! first of all: when you get to the end game, what are the main activities? in WoW for example it is raids, PvP, and Mythic+

slate arrow
#

Savage and Ultimates are the main endgame

#

Savage: harder versions of the Normal/Story/LFG raid which have unique mechanics

#

Ultimate: remixed versions of previous expansion raid sets/story bosses(usually) with high mechanical complexity, and no checkpoints

#

And then there's extreme trials which are harder versions of trials, basically

#

Alliance Raids are more or less the same difficulty as normal/story raids

neon wave
#

hmmm and what are trials?

slate arrow
#

basically raids, but not associated with the specific raid tier.

#

Raids have a story and trials have a story but trials is usually one per patch

warped nest
#

Trials are one fight with their own loot pool

slate arrow
#

While raids are 4 every even patch

warped nest
#

Raids are one fight, but they come in group of 4

#

And share loot drops in the same group

#

Alliance raid are very different from normal raid

neon wave
#

oooh got it! are there dungeons as well?

warped nest
#

Yes

slate arrow
#

not mythic dungeons

#

but yes there's dungeons

#

They're not really used for gear outside of specific circumstances, like getting BiS for a specific ultimate raid (Shadowbringers first Ultimate to be specific)

warped nest
#

Alliance raid are 24 players PvE contents, 3 groups of 8, Alliance raid has 3 raid per series. We have 4 series, one per expansion

#

If I may, I can explain this from the other end

#

OK, to get BiS (best in slot) gear

#

You need to get a mix of Tomestone gear and Savage raid gear

#

Savage raid is the savage difficulty version of normal raid. 8 players, and has weekly lock out

#

Tomestone gear you can purchase by spending a high end Tomestone, which you earn from doing endgame activities like raids, trials, Alliance raids, dungeons etc, you can only earn 450 of this tomestone per week

#

As is, tomestone gear is slightly weaker than savage raid gear, so you will need to get items to augment them once so they will match the item level of Savage gear. These upgrade items are dropped directly by savage raid as part of the loot pool, but can be acquired from alliance raid later (via a slightly different method)

#

Everything else: trials, raid (normal), alliances raids, are alternative sources of gears for players who don't want to commit to getting BiS or don't want to attempt savage raid

neon wave
#

ah i see! so the gear treadmill works around being ready for the savage raid then

slate arrow
#

kinda? The gear treadmill is mainly focusing on getting to maximum item level and then BiS

#

There's no RNG in gear for the most part. (There used to be in Heavensward but it's been phased out due to the zone that dropped it being changed entirely.)

warped nest
#

Gears don't come with RNG stats

neon wave
#

that's great, I'm getting sick of the RNG on WoW

warped nest
#

So I have heard

slate arrow
#

Ah yes, Diablo 3 of Warcraft

#

but yeah this game is very stable in terms of everything really

#

so it's very reliable if you're looking to move over

warped nest
#

But that does become a point of criticism by a few

#

A new raid tier is the same process, just with new coat of paint

#

But they do make the raids very mechanically challenging

#

And always seems to have new mechanics for players to learn and dance around on

neon wave
#

that's great! I've been playing as Gladiator and wanting to be Paladin! I main tanks on WoW so it was a natural choice xD

#

ty for the info! it was super useful!

slate arrow
#

👍

warped nest
#

Have fun

gusty pasture
#

for anima light farming,we have to equip the relic weapon right? in A9S

warped nest
#

Yes

#

To be specific you need have it on you as you complete the content

forest sage
#

yeah you can use a good weapon, then equip it before leaving to get the light on it

#

but if you forget, you don't get shit so if you're lazy just leave it on, even with bad weapon it dies super fast

marble drift
#

There are options to set yourself to private

#

but you can just BE terrible. unless you do something that truly matters. Who cares?

sturdy sundial
#

Yeah I guess. But part of me thinks it may be useful since it might be able to help me figure why I'm terrible. But since I'm on PS4, the only way for me to get parse data would to be in a party with someone on PC that's using it right?

warped nest
#

Yes

#

That said

#

Are you following any rotation guide?

#

Another thing you can do is compare your log to someone else's on the same job, and see what's the difference between yours and theirs: do they use a certain skill significantly more than you, do you have the same timing in using specific ability as them, etc

rigid narwhal
#

also, throw your clears that someone else has uploaded into xivanalysis

late crystal
#

what would be the best class that pairs with a samurai? buddy is running samurai and i wanna run with him using a class that pairs well with it.

#

kinda like how tanks and healers should go hand in hand.

rigid narwhal
#

in endgame or just for leveling?

late crystal
#

so he got the lvl 70 boost for samurai but not the storyline boost.

#

so wed be playing thru the story but already have lvl 70 characters.

rigid narwhal
#

okay

#

if you've already boosted a character

#

i'd suggest you level another job

#

through the msq

#

cos the msq gives you enough xp to level one job

sturdy sundial
late crystal
#

well im new too lol. i planned on just boosting the class to 70 since the things are on sale. i was just wondering if any classes paired well with the samurai

sturdy sundial
rigid narwhal
#

i'd suggest being a healer or tank, in that case. for queue times sake more than anything

warped nest
#

Boosting a job to lvl 70

#

But doesn't boost story

#

Is a bit of a waste

rigid narwhal
#

its kind of pointless

warped nest
#

But as long as you guys are happy...

rigid narwhal
#

cos you can't do content at lvl 70 with a boosted job

#

as everything is locked behind the story

sturdy sundial
late crystal
#

okay well aside from the boosting. what job goes well with samurai lol

elfin edge
#

xivanalysis is a website where you paste an fflog url and it'll analyze it for you

#

and give you suggestions

rigid narwhal
#

go to fflogs, open your log, copy it and go to xivanalysis

late crystal
#

oh really?

rigid narwhal
#

honestly there is no perfect pairing like that

#

it's best to have a healer or tank

warped nest
rigid narwhal
#

for queue times for dungeons

warped nest
#

Yeah, tank/healer for faster queue, that's it

late crystal
#

lol i figured it didnt matter but i was thinking some things just clicked together better than others, ya know?

rigid narwhal
#

yeah in this game, not really

warped nest
#

There is no "if this pairs with samurai, Samurai can kill even the Gods themselves" job, if that's what you were thinking

sturdy sundial
#

Okay I'll try that, but for it to be useful, I would need up to date parses right?

late crystal
#

ok

rigid narwhal
#

just from this tier is fine

elfin edge
#

just throw one in and see if what it's suggesting is something you are already doing now instead of before

warped nest
#

I would say that if you aren't feeling it on becoming a healer

#

Doing tank is a good choice

#

Tank plays like Dps

#

You just need to learn some additional things like aggro, how to group enemies to let your party member nuke them efficiently

#

Where to place/aim a boss, and how to use your defensive skill correctly

i've done a few but not while they're recent. i want to, but i either never have time or don't have good gear so i rarely have a chance to do them.

you either want to push the content and clear. or you don't have the time/resources/paitence/whatever

#

if you want to avoid people picking on you (which btw is reportable directly to gms, as use of the combat tracker program is not allowed to be used to berate people)

you can set your fflogs profile to private

Eh, i have no problem with log shaming people. Just dont do it in game.

#

ah okay, well hopefully it doesn't happen again but at least I know I can do something about it now

simple shore
#

As long as you keep it out of in-game you're safe

I don't mind if someone gives suggestions, it just depends on how they say it

thanks for all the advice btw

is there a way to invert the LMB and RMB?

green grail
#

within the game, don't think so, but with some external mouse software probably yeah

nimble zodiac
#

question abt pld, im still level 70 but for requiescat phase its goring blade -> req -> holy spirit x5 -> conf right

but so far the 5th holy spirit has always been outside req so I thought I couldnt get the confetti out in time, will my casting speed be increased later?

little swift
#

holy spirit 4 times

#

and confiteor

nimble zodiac
#

ah ok

little swift
#

the only way to improve casting speed is to build spell speed

nimble zodiac
#

but isnt that do bigger dmg when im out of mana tho

little swift
#

but you definitely don't want to meld that

#

usually you cast 3 holy spirits to keep your rotation in a more tightly lined 60s loop

green grail
#

if you're missing the 5th holy spirit, make sure you'rewaiting to like the last 1/3rd or so of th gcd till you use requiescat

nimble zodiac
#

ah ok

little swift
#

it also costs 2k mana to confiteor

nimble zodiac
#

usually I just mash

#

ahh

little swift
#

so you don't have enough to do 12k mana worth of casts

#

confiteor basically replaces your last holy spirit

nimble zodiac
#

i see

little swift
#

and when you get atonement that becomes more powerful than holy spirits so you drop 1 to get more atonements out per minute in that sense

nimble zodiac
#

but rn i do 5 holy spirits right

little swift
#

yes

green grail
nimble zodiac
#

alright

#

ive never seen that pic ill keep that in mind

what do i do with all the excess gear i have like lvl 60 gears ? my inventory and retainer inventory is also full from gathering materials how do i tell which one is useless

green grail
#

sell items from retainer inventory > check current listing prices

#

though in general.. if you're not using it then it's useless, and if you got it by accident then it's almost definitely as easy to get once you end up needing it again so in 99% cases you can just sell/discard it for now

elfin edge
#

if it's green/blue/pink gear you can turn them in to GC for seals

green grail
#

and for gear switch onto other jobs you have and gear them with the highest ilvl you have, check if you want to save anything else for glamour and get rid of the rest

I've basically stopped keeping mats that I can buy directly from NPCs

winter flame
#

hello :) i need help with the monster hunter event

#

anyone can help ?

obsidian patio
#

What do you need help with specifically?

winter flame
#

having a group to finish the quest and farm some of its material for gears

obsidian patio
#

I recommend party finder for that.

winter flame
#

alright 👍

#

thanks hopefully i get members for the quest

little swift
#

if its just the normal mode

#

you can use duty finder and its part of trial roulette

#

its only the extreme version that requires a party finder set up

winter flame
timid geyser
#

The extreme version can also be done unsync at level 80, which makes it way easier

surreal rapids
#

any tips for what i could be doing to get efficient exp while waiting for me dungeon queue to pop?

#

im 71 now, leveling dancer, i never really leveled an alt

#

ive been doing hunts and the odd side quest

#

hunts are over sort of quickly and side quests give really underwhelming exp

winter flame
hot eagle
#

do fates in shb while you wait in que, could do sidequests while you wait or level a gatherer or crafter

timid geyser
#

Ah I see

hot eagle
#

could also do bozja if you got it unlocked

surreal rapids
#

bozja?

timid geyser
#

Well do your normal quest then, it gets you a minion

surreal rapids
#

ah, i havent got it yet

timid geyser
#

I was talking to Hajya_Games lol

i was talking about this bozja, which i guess is a duty i can repeat
sorry, i didnt mean to jump into another conversation

How do I get glowing weapons?

surreal rapids
#

you grind

#

relinquish your soul

little swift
#

serious answers only please

timid geyser
little swift
#

there are a couple kinds of glowing weapons oz

timid geyser
surreal rapids
#

sorry
they come from the deep dungeons, a few of them at least

little swift
#

crafted weapons which can be purchased from the market board

#

deep dungeon ones which require completion of palace of the dead or heaven on high

#

or the relic weapons

#

which have a long series of steps involved to improve and create them

timid geyser
#

And also some trial weapons

little swift
#

and some of the lv50 extreme trial weapons

winter flame
little swift
#

the hard mode ones usually have a mild/non-existent glow

timid geyser
#

Yeah

#

I'm also pretty sure Ultima weapons have a glow

#

But that's Ultimate content lol

little swift
#

ultimate weapons have a glow as well but they're technically rehashes of relic weapons

timid geyser
#

Ye

loud ether
#

I am overwhelmed with Blue+sign quest after I am done with ARR storyline.

timid geyser
surreal rapids
#

it's likely he means the deep dungeon ones, i'd say those have the most striking glowing effect
if so, they take quite a long time to acquire

#

gods help him, if he means the eureka weapons

timid geyser
#

Eureka weapons aren't the hardest to grind

#

Just do FATEs

#

Zodiac weapons are hell to upgrade

nimble charm
#

That's what I am doing rn cuz didn't find anymore glowing gear to now

loud ether
#

Should I buy the Aug. Ironworks mon weapon and then start working on relic weapon?

timid geyser
timid geyser
#

The ARR relics are only useful for completionists

only for looking pretty

#

So they are safe to ignore for now?

#

Got it

Yes

statwise, its useless. yes

what is the command for savage loots?

little swift
#

!faq savageloot

zinc orbitBOT
#
What floors of savage drop which items?

Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion

Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.

Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.

The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests

Cities are also barely a spoiler in itself.

distant creek
#

Reached lvl 20 on the free trial and need some advice, should I grind to lvl 60 and then buy the game or what should I do?

obsidian patio
#

If you don’t mind the trial restrictions you can wait until you hit 60 from doing the story

#

!faq freetrial

zinc orbitBOT
obsidian patio
#

Most of the limitations are social stuff and retainers, which act as your bank for items

distant creek
#

But if I would buy the game for example now, I would get more out of it cause I could join a FC and do stuff with other peoples right?

Hey all! I'm about a week new to the game. Is Gil pretty easy to come by? I've bee taking a look at the auction house and there's so much I want to get (Like the pegasus night whistle). I'm only in the first expansion right now, so I'm guessing gil won't be that easy to come buy till the level 80 range?

obsidian patio
#

Yes. But if you don’t mind that then there’s no immediate need to buy the game

obsidian patio
whole wasp
#

there are also very little gil sinks in the game so you will normally accrue gil as you level unless you blow it all on fashion

That's good to know. I've noticed I'm already at about 400k! So only 16 million 500k left!

Where can I get the best gear that isn’t acquired by doing savage content?

stuck thunder
#

i think next best should be cryptlurker which is the tomestones ones at 520 ilevel

#

so just do daily roulette and etc, will take some weeks due to caps but u dont need to do savage e9s+ to get the 530+ ones

oak ice
#

^ and the casual way to upgrade those will be the third nier raid in 5.5
