[cold steppe]

is there any reward priority for wondorous tails?

[little swift]

Its what you want tbh

Personally I find mgp sort of useless and typically go for the certificates

The gold one in particular can be used to trade for a mount that sells for a fair bit

[vernal urchin]

i always go for mgp since the mounts you get from there cost so much mgp

though once you get everything you want from the gold saucer, it becomes less worthwhile

[faint flare]

I take whatever is more money

[plain python]

does chocobo buddy challenge count if I do synced FATEs?

[vernal urchin]

yes

[crimson crystal]

defo get the exp

aka switch to a non 80 class if you have one

[cold steppe]

i dont have all 80

that one for sure lol

[crimson crystal]

I prioritize the certificates because you can get mgp and tomes in many, easier other ways

[cold steppe]

i assume from 9 seals map is always more valuable than tomestones or raw 10k gil?

[crimson crystal]

yeah defo get map

[red apex]

what is the easiest way to say to a helper thoank you?

if you see a wanderer and they help you out

[crimson crystal]

/bow

that's what I do lol

or /say thank you

[red apex]

is there an easy way to chat directly? like clicking on them

ohh okay, so /say chats with them directly?

[cold steppe]

also how does the retry work? like you choose which sticker to get back and try to get one more to lineup for more lines?

[crimson crystal]

you can /tell them too if you really want

/tell is the in game "DM"

[red apex]

cool coo. Thank youXD

sorry for typo lol

[cold steppe]

i wonder since im like 1 sticker away from 3 lines, if i'd get lucky so i wonder if i should try retry option

and try to get 3 lines

[little swift]

Retry let's you select a previously completed duty and redo it

It just moves your completed one to something else

[cold steppe]

so it doesnt let you get sticker again basically

[little swift]

Shuffle is the on for different sticker orientation

[twilit arch]

which sticker you get is gonna be random

[little swift]

No you get another sticker if you do that duty again

[cold steppe]

hmm

[twilit arch]

so even if you do say garuda again, it may not end up where you want it

[cold steppe]

i see

[little swift]

Basically shuffle at 7 stickers and aim for at least 1 line

!faq wondroustails

[zinc orbit]

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

[cold steppe]

tho it says i cant do it anyway so it's too late anyway i suppose. lol

[little swift]

You can only shuffle between 3 and 7 stickers

[cold steppe]

retry i mean

[little swift]

If you have 1, 2, 8 or 9 you can't shuffle

Is your wt completed?

[manic flare]

is iit possible to set my home estate as my home aetheryte destination?

[red apex]

sorry, one more question. How do I get the glamour quest?

[cold steppe]

yeah

[red apex]

can anyone do it?

or do i gotta be a certain class

[little swift]

!faq glamour

[zinc orbit]

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

[red apex]

thank you!

saved XD

[cold steppe]

oh to make sure, the revelation tomestones from khloe dont bypass the cap, right?

[twilit arch]

correct, 450 is a hardcap

anything you would get that would go over it goes poof

[cold steppe]

then for 1 line thats easy choice lol

[twilit arch]

if you want

[cold steppe]

i mean the cert

[twilit arch]

you can hold onto the book until next week (assuming it doesn't expire next week)

[cold steppe]

since 450 is super easy to cap anyway

[twilit arch]

and turn it in to get then to revelations

[leaden ginkgo]

hey, first time I'm able to join castrum (I have the required level etc.) I registered then few minutes later the message saying I can't register anymore, any idea why ?
I joined another fight while tagging for castrum, is that the problem ?

[past sinew]

Just unlocked the Firmament, and joined the Restoration. I'm at a complete loss. I reached Lv 20 with most crafters, the level said to be a good one to join in; yet I'm lost in the firmament. I have no idea what I should do, nor how I should go about grinding, as many people have said the firm is good for.

Basically: What should I do and prioritize?

[wheat plume]

I have some weapons I cannot desynt, turn in to gc, sell market, even sell to vendors

[little swift]

So if you've spoken to everyone in the firmament

You'll have new recipes in your special tab @past sinew

[wheat plume]

What can I do, only discard them?

[little swift]

Make those and turn them in to Potkin for exp

Toss them if you have no other method of getting rid of them

[open ember]

Ishgard collectable crafts are in the second tab under special recipes

Or other receipes

[cold steppe]

for retainers, the only stat that matters is gathering right? you dont have any need for perception?

[sage sapphire]

Hello, is it normal to wait for something u bought from the shop?

[little swift]

Yes

[little swift]

Yes

[sage sapphire]

would it take more than a day?

[open ember]

Give it an hour maybe

[silver ruin]

no

hourish

[open ember]

Some things take a while

[wheat plume]

sometimes u must logout and login for it to appear

[open ember]

I had a mount take 3 hours to get to me once

Its normal

[sage sapphire]

okay thanks ^^

[past sinew]

Also, a second question

Is there a difference between Eos and Selene I should know? I usually summon them at random without knowing what they do..If they differentiate at all

[little swift]

No

Cosmetic now

[past sinew]

Remember when Eos was the real healer?

SCH just DPS'ed like a SMN

[gritty oracle]

What are good items to donate to the Doman Reconstruction?

[cold steppe]

thanks!

[little swift]

The clear demimateria or allagan silver pieces

Can usually get the latter from retainer ventures

[gritty oracle]

ah ty!

[tropic notch]

does the penalty count for missing a queue reset after some time

[manic flare]

what's the difference between a hokonin and a steward?

in terms of the items they sell

[alpine shadow]

the penalty counts if you miss 3 queues

[twilit arch]

nothing, the difference is the appearance @manic flare

[manic flare]

how do people get non-interactable npcs in their estates?

[twilit arch]

the housing npcs are only interactable by the house owner/tenants

[manic flare]

is there a reason so many people are doing susano trial?

i've rouletted it three times a row in the past 3 days

[twilit arch]

its needed for msq

[glacial isle]

Does /egiglamour not work on the Free Trial?

[faint flare]

Need to unlock it at lv50 smn

[glacial isle]

ah

[obsidian patio]

It’s a separate side-quest

Oh what should I get for now until I get to e12s

[nimble holly]

emerald weapon

or tome if u can afford it

[lost grove]

Idk where to go for contaminated bay at all

[manic flare]

wtf

all the housing is gone in the mist

in one day over 40 plots got sold

[tropic notch]

mmm how unrealistic is it to go for a medium house

like will they ever sell?

[faint flare]

All the plots that were open are probably all gone now

[tropic notch]

do they ever sell doe?

I wanna get a medium in kugane ;p

[leaden ginkgo]

Question about Eureka, do I need to go purchase the antiquated gear to do more damage/survive? Or can I just use my gear from Shadowbringers?

[faint flare]

If they get auto demolished theybdo

[little swift]

@lost grove quest chain starts in ishgard. "Gods of Eld"

[faint flare]

Gear over i300 doesn't matter. Though the Kirin osode/verminion cloak will give you more stats

[leaden ginkgo]

Saw one medium yesterday but I didn't wanna drop 12M gil.

[tropic notch]

only 12??

someone told me it was gonna be 25

[lost grove]

@little swift ty

[faint flare]

[tropic notch]

aah

I see so like.. the new ishgard ones are probably gonna end up being like 25?

[faint flare]

See default pricing here

[tropic notch]

oh

well that's sweet

I gotta start figuring out how to make $$$ so far I have 80 botanist and 65 leatherworker ;p I think the goal is to just level all the crafters and mining

[manic flare]

a good way of making money early game is doing your roulettes

[open ember]

You can make some money with miner more than botanist

[manic flare]

especially leveling, alliance raid, normal raid, and level 50/60/70 dungeon roulettes

[faint flare]

It just depends on market

[open ember]

I would suggest leveling up armor, weaver and blacksmith as well

[tropic notch]

I do em all besides COUGH netflix roulette

[open ember]

But yes all the crafters would be good to level up

[manic flare]

what makes you say that

[open ember]

Miner mats sell better

[tropic notch]

tbh I saw that the grade4 botanist mats were super up yesterday and sold all the ones I had which .. probably was a bad idea but I made bank

[open ember]

Ore sells more by far

Obviously depends on the market

[manic flare]

eh i dont know if you can make a blanket statement like that

depends on the mat and the world

[tropic notch]

after leatherworker I was gonna do weaver but I have to figure out how to gear my lvl 80's

[manic flare]

do beast tribe quests

[tropic notch]

it seems... REALLY pricey since I can't craft the stuf

[open ember]

Its not really a blanket statement lol but whatever works for you

[tropic notch]

does beast tribe give good 80 gear?

[open ember]

Not really

[tropic notch]

the aeshithite or whatever was what someone told me to get but it's like 300k+ each for each piece... not including rings which are like 125k each

[faint flare]

It doesn't even give gear

[open ember]

Either do white scrip gear or aesthete gear

[faint flare]

Really

[manic flare]

i mean do beast tribe quests for exp

their crafting requirements in terms of gear is very low

[tropic notch]

what lvl is that for?

[manic flare]

so u can have crap gear and still get tons of exp from the beast tribes

[faint flare]

There's tribes for all levels

[tropic notch]

I could do it on my leatherworker

[manic flare]

yes

[open ember]

What level is your leatherworker

[tropic notch]

65

[open ember]

Do Namazu

[manic flare]

do namazu

[tropic notch]

is that shadowbringers?

[faint flare]

Ixals for sub 50, moogles 50-60, namazu for 60-70, dwarves for 70+

[open ember]

Then do to dwarf

No Namazu is SB

[manic flare]

namazu is in azem steppes

[tropic notch]

ooo imma do that right after I finish the prereq raids for shadowbringers then I appreciate it

turns out they made them mandatory in the last 2 years since I've last played

[open ember]

Oh you mean Crystal Tower

[manic flare]

@tropic notch also u can desynth items u get from dungeons

some of the mats u get from desynthing items from high level dungeons sell very well

[tropic notch]

er how to desynth

[open ember]

Its not a reliable way to consistently make gil

[faint flare]

Need to unlock it first in...uldah markets i think

[tropic notch]

well ... if i'm doing the dungeons anyways and get gear I might as well right

[manic flare]

yea it's pretty much free money

[tropic notch]

wish I would have known about that

[obsidian patio]

Ehh

[manic flare]

gives u gil with minimal effort

[open ember]

You have to unlock desynth

[obsidian patio]

You have to compare it to turning the item into GC seals

[leaden ginkgo]

Recently got a new gpu and now I keep getting Directx11 crashes with different codes, what do I do?

[faint flare]

Expert dungeons desynth into sublimes and Spirit ethers

[obsidian patio]

Which can be worth more depending on the materials the item desynths into

[faint flare]

Which usually go for abit

[tropic notch]

mine crashes occasionally too I think it's just the game probably not your gpu

[rotund plinth]

hey i have a question. i have a medium house and am thinking of buing a small plot thats right next to it, what will happen if i do?

[manic flare]

you will lose the medium house

[faint flare]

You cant own 2 houses

[manic flare]

unless you make it an fc house

[rotund plinth]

i see

[faint flare]

You'll relocate to it

[open ember]

You can only own one house per character

[rotund plinth]

thats what i was afraid of

[open ember]

Or DC or whatever

[tropic notch]

ok so I need to do these tribe quest and unlock desynthing/materia

thanks guys!

[obsidian patio]

It’s like one per server or something like that

[open ember]

Oh its by server

No

there's a gil limit

You can have a house, an apartment and an fc room

But not two houses

[lost grove]

How much r apartments

[obsidian patio]

500k

[faint flare]

500k

[manic flare]

another method, as wynne has suggested is turning in your dungeon loot to obtain GC seals, and using GC seals to buy glamour prisms to sell on MB

[lost grove]

I may get on in the future

[tropic notch]

interesting

[lost grove]

One*

[manic flare]

glamour prisms is one example, another item that tends to go relatively fast is glamour dispellers

buy whichever one is selling more on your world

[tropic notch]

will do

I would love to go figure all this out rn ;] but this raid queue is ver long

[manic flare]

also it's generally not worth turning in loot for GC seals in the level 50-60 dungeons. you'll have better luck desynthing them and selling the mats

whereas the higher level dungeons tends to give 1200+ GC seals per turn-in, allowing u buy 6 glamour prisms

so u can on average get at least 1k from each dungeon loot

assuming the glamour prisms are selling for around 200 on your world

[little nimbus]

Lore wise are bard songs magic or wut ?

[manic flare]

ask in #archived-lore-spoilers @little nimbus

https://gyazo.com/66e58ad8946f6cdd36302b461d966548

being a tank is a scam

[manic flare]

dps queues the fastest for alliance raids

tank queues slowest

since only 3 tanks are needed

alliance raid queue are the only ones where tank suffers

[tropic notch]

:[

[scarlet arrow]

DPS are often in need for Alliance Raid Roulette for that very reason

[leaden ginkgo]

Convinced its my settings or something happened 7 times last 20 minutes

Must be a fix surely.

[rugged flicker]

What are all the pre-requisites for doing Bozjan?

Friend says you need to have done the Ivalice raids.

[obsidian patio]

Yep

Need to complete all of the Ivalice quests besides the optional side quests that want you to give food

[tropic notch]

oki after world of darkness am I done

[manic flare]

what does this do?

[dull canopy]

Hi so me and my SO wants to try this game. Looking at what server to pick? Eu is usually the best (from africa), but I see none of the roleplay servers are on EU? Also, looking at the statuses, seems we won't be able to create characters on a preferred world?

[faint flare]

They're just housing tags

To show what kind of house it is

[warped nest]

You can create characters on preferred world

[dull canopy]

It says creation of new characters unavailable?

[obsidian patio]

!faq serverlock

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

[warped nest]

Worlds might temporarily reject new character creation due to high traffic, you can just try again on a more... Ungodly hour

[obsidian patio]

Basically early morning and late at night are your best options

[warped nest]

Like "this time is too late to stay up for, and too early to wake up early to"

[dull canopy]

Ah okay, thanks. Thought it might be a days/week thing

And regarding role playing? The bot only gives NA worlds. Does anyone know if there's anything in EU?

[obsidian patio]

Nothing as big as Balmung/Mateus is.

[rare comet]

is there a discord for ff14 recruitment?

[obsidian patio]

Long ago I heard people wanting to make Louisoix an unofficial RP server?

any reason why this person wouldn't have the materia quest? 😛 on a crafter

umm i keep getting this wheeling thrust bug, some help would be appreciated

[simple shore]

what bug

Your screenshots are unclear

[placid gorge]

the blue flashing spiral

or is that normal

[open coral]

That's just the animation

[covert eagle]

Is anyone a lvl50 Alchemist lvl 2 star that would be willing to make me a potted umbrella fig? I will provide the materials! ^u^

[proud willow]

I'm not getting those blocky spirals like you were. It's supposed to be smooth. Looks like a weird video card issue, maybe update your drivers

[leaden ginkgo]

When Ishgard housing releases, will it only be open to FCs at first, or what?

[proud willow]

We don't know

[leaden ginkgo]

Based off of previous housing districts being released

[proud willow]

as of yet, there is still no actual confirmation that Ishgard will be getting a housing zone

it is just very very likely

[gloomy ice]

There have been two recent-ish instances of new wards being added. The first followed the FCs only rule for a brief time. The second was open to everyone.

[proud willow]

I don't think there were even housing timers yet at the time Kugane housing opened up

[gloomy ice]

So there's not much in terms of precedent for how they'll handle it.

[agile dome]

For the wedding quest do both players need to buy the package or do I just trade it

[gloomy ice]

The bracelet can be traded freely. If you're going for a gold or plat wedding plan, you can buy both bracelets yourself if you choose.

[agile dome]

Ok

Ty

[gloomy ice]

Note that if you have mismatching bracelets, the lowest one is what you'll get. Free + gold = free, as an example.

[pliant ravine]

[worthy rain]

Ok (y)

[pliant ravine]

You couldn't go to ishgard before starting HW, same for Kugane which you couldn't visit before a certain point of the SB story

Ok, edit to add magic

[timid geyser]

it's like that

[timid geyser]

wrong quote lol

[obsidian patio]

Entry can only do 30 days at a time

[lone hawk]

do you mean that after 1 month i need to get the standard?

[pliant ravine]

so you cant write support ticket on the site?

[obsidian patio]

If you want longer then you’ll want standard subscription

[timid geyser]

No, you just have to buy 30 days individually each time lol

[obsidian patio]

I mean you can try, but not having either of those pieces of identifying info will hurt you majorly

[timid geyser]

Or is it just that entry is only avaible once ?

[lone hawk]

ah, okay, kinda stupid, but okay

[obsidian patio]

Entry can be used as long as you want

[pliant ravine]

could you show me where you can wirte an support ticket on the site?

Both kinds of subs auto-renew, it's just that Standard lets you pay for several months at a time

[lone hawk]

does it bring any additional value to the service?

[lone hawk]

oh... so there is no difference

[obsidian patio]

5x3?

[half kraken]

that's what it's called I thought

[timid geyser]

The difference between entry and standard is the amount of characters you can make

5 cheap ingredients 3 expensive ingredients

place them in a certain order

[sand grove]

Can you store multiple of the same map with your retainer?

[half kraken]

no

[lone hawk]

Yeah, yeah, but from the casual player point of view (so from my pov) there is no difference :D...

is posible to keybind a main hotbars switch? I mean press letter n second bar become bar 1 press n again and go back?

[obsidian patio]

The FFXIV gardening site has a lot of useful info in it

https://www.ffxivgardening.com/

[little swift]

hotbar cycling is on by default

its shift 1-0

its in your keybinds

your first bar will cycle between them all

[worthy rain]

Is it worth the 2$ more for standard? (Having 8 instead of 1 per server)

[obsidian patio]

For most people no

You really only need one character to play the game

with being able to travel to different servers, it's even less relevant now, as you can have alts on different servers pop onto your main's world. so unless you have to have a lala for a lala only FC on your main's server, you probably won't need the extra

[sullen phoenix]

Is there any benefit to purchasing a apartment room?

[worthy rain]

Ok, "alts" is alternatives? Hahahaha

[gentle gorge]

If on a trial account can i use someones recruit a friend code?

[obsidian patio]

You need to have bought the game

[little swift]

alts as in alternate characters yes

[obsidian patio]

You can put NPCs in there that sell a bunch of stuff

[sullen phoenix]

Oh! Nice!!

[worthy rain]

Ok (y)

[obsidian patio]

Or other NPCs like a materia melder, repairer, and mini calamity salvager

[sullen phoenix]

Woah. Yeah I would like a room now lol

[naive kraken]

also unload special event room decoration items instead of store on a retainer/toss

[sullen phoenix]

Is there a process to purchasing a room? Any guides? Thx for the help ^^

[forest sage]

you go to the appartment lobby with the money, and talk to a NPC

[rigid dust]

do account-wide mounts just kinda show up in your mounts eventually~? or is my whistle just taking a while to arrive~ o:

[sullen phoenix]

Thx Pyros

[little swift]

in the mail

[gentle gorge]

So do i accept a code then buy the game or the other way around?

[gloomy ice]

Account wide mounts tend to take longer to process than most other single use items.

[red apex]

can someone please explain how swiftcast works?

[rigid dust]

ohhh okay, gotcha. thanks you two!! c:

[red apex]

do i hit swiftcast then 2 moves consecutively?

or do i use one skill, hit swift, then another move

[faint flare]

It makes your next GCD instant cast

[open coral]

Swiftcast will make your next spell with a cast time an instant cast.

[red apex]

so i use one skill, hit swift, and then my next move?

[open coral]

Hit Swiftcast before the spell that you want to make instant.

Usually healers use it in combination with their Raise

[sullen phoenix]

How do you know if there are any vacancies for apartments for your server?

[red apex]

ohh i see. Theyu would raise and then heal instantly?

[open coral]

Swiftcast would eliminate the cast time (normally 7.73 seconds, baseline) for Raise.

[timid geyser]

Usually it is better to save it for raise

[naive tartan]

Ideally you would use it to raise instantly

[red apex]

ahh I see

[open coral]

Then you would have to heal the individual as you normally would.

[red apex]

so that's how it works...

I understand now XD. Thank you guys so much

so it could eliminate long cast times?

pretty much

[open coral]

Yes

[rigid dust]

precisely c:

[open coral]

!action Swiftcast

[red apex]

got it XD

[zinc orbit]

**Swiftcast** : lvl 18 CNJ THM ACN WHM BLM SMN SCH AST RDM BLU (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Next spell is cast immediately.

It does exactly what it says on the tin

[red apex]

haha yes. Sorry I just wasn't sure of the main purpose though

but now i undertstand

super useful skill

[open coral]

Yes, it is.

[little swift]

use it for movement as well not just for saving people

!faq weaving

[zinc orbit]

Quick guide to weaving/clipping

Click the image, then 'Open original'

[red apex]

hmm i don't quite understand the diagram lol

[obsidian patio]

Check if the apartment icon on the map has a check mark on it.

[little swift]

so basically

that diagram shows how your gcd rolls

[obsidian patio]

Make sure to check every ward and the subdivision version, as they all have their own version

[little swift]

on spells that require a channel, they'll take up a certain portion of the gcd spin

[obsidian patio]

So there’s like 48 apartments per housing district

[little swift]

and once that spin is up you can cast another spell

[sullen phoenix]

Ty @obsidian patio that’s what I was just about to ask

[little swift]

however for instant cast spells

there is not channeling of a spell

so that gives you a bit of space to jam abilities that aren't part of you gcd

[worthy rain]

For free trials players to have online gameplay, is there a ''matchmaking'' (or the name it is), or the free trial players has to come to communities like this server to ask for something?

[little swift]

there's a duty finder

that matchmakes you to random other players

hit u on keyboard

[worthy rain]

no, ok in ps4, but anyway

wanted to know how a free trial can have online mode

as I know they can not send invitations

[polar hound]

you can find the duty finder in your menus, the entire game is online but maybe im misunderstanding. if you just want more social aspects and can afford the sub, theres really no reason not to do it.

[worthy rain]

I mean:

Server ---> your world: then you choose if someone enters, or not, butrather play alone

Is it not like that?

[polar hound]

no

[obsidian patio]

The duty finder is in the duty section of the menu opened up by pressing start

[oak ice]

Nope, free players use the duty finder like everyone else

[polar hound]

^^

[oak ice]

You don't get away that easily

[polar hound]

it's an MMO so there's no "pre-game lobby" or any of the such.

[worthy rain]

I mean, in games like Borderlands, someone joined your world, and make missions

But you could decide, if yes, or no

[oak ice]

No, everyone is in the same zones, with few exceptions

[worthy rain]

settings your world as online, or not

[polar hound]

nah, there is no offline mode for this

[oak ice]

Only time you can kick someone is if they're in your house, or if multiple players agree to kick them from a dungeon

[worthy rain]

Then, when you enter a msq, what happens?

[oak ice]

Solo duties are solo duties

[polar hound]

MSQ is largely a solo experience with group content mixed in

(dungeons, trials etc)

[timid geyser]

But for that you either have to be a shithead or to dare criticize a member of the team not knowing they're a premade

[oak ice]

Everything else is just like a normal mmo

[leaden ginkgo]

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

[timid geyser]

I am of course not talking in experience

haha

ha

[sullen phoenix]

@obsidian patio does the check Mark have to be green? I went to an apartment complex that had a red checkmark and it says no vacancies.

[worthy rain]

Ok, online everytime less msq content

thanks for the info (y)

[obsidian patio]

If there’s a checkmark at all there’s no vacancies

[sullen phoenix]

Ohhh I see.

[timid geyser]

Samurai is level 50 so it's out of the question for now

what does warrior do in WoW ?

[naive kraken]

What drops the onion knight card? somehow i found 2 of them in my inventory?

[timid geyser]

Maybe CT ?

Since it's the only FF3 related content I can think of

[naive kraken]

i guess my last few alliance raids was WoD?

[hot eagle]

yeah it's wod

[timid geyser]

Then it's possible

[steep lotus]

hello, i got a new pc and installed ff on it. i want to transfer my hotbars and my settings over from my old pc to the new one so i dont got to set it all up again. which function ingame do i use? back up character settings or client settings? whats the difference

[obsidian patio]

Client settings is more of the system config stuff, IIRC

Still best to back up both

But yeah, character settings has stuff like keybinds/hotbar/macros/UI

[naive kraken]

every character as well as your system settings

[steep lotus]

ok

thanks

Honestly none of the dps classes are particularly similar to dps warriors in WoW. Warrior (Marauder) has a similar feel to Fury warrior, but in XIV WAR is a tank class, not dps.

[open coral]

We don't know yet.

Probably not until next expansion.

[faint flare]

Its not even confirmed

Just extremely hinted at

this is the worst system in the game

[open coral]

Ishgard housing isn't going to solve the problem.

[timid geyser]

Yeah

[polar cairn]

fresh wards?

[open coral]

There will always be more players than housing plots available.

[timid geyser]

To solve the problem they'd need to add dozens of wards

[twilit arch]

the next LL is gonna cover 5.5 specifically though

[forest sage]

they'll probably talk quickly about 5.45 in the beginning like they usually do

like give an exact date and the content(which we already know, just a reminder)

[empty pecan]

Is Rareified Rainbow Cotton Bolls not a thing anymore? Trying to farm gather scrips and i can only find timers for the the Dark Chestnut nodes.

[forest sage]

it doesn't have a timer maybe

[manic flare]

for this week's fashion report, i can use the dream tunic instead of the winter sweater and get full 80 points?

[twilit arch]

they're not on a timed node

yes @manic flare

[forest sage]

there's a reddit post that lists all the available items for full points, every item on that list is the same and you can use whatever, the "easy 80" is just one potential choice

usually it doesn't have event stuff in there cause only people who did those events could do them so it uses "easier" stuff to get

[manic flare]

how do i get a glamour dresser in my estate?

[forest sage]

you don't

[manic flare]

?

[obsidian patio]

It’s not a furniture

You’ll have to go to your inn to access it

[forest sage]

inn or GC HQ barracks

[obsidian patio]

TL;DR: SE is still trying to make the Dresser as a furniture not bug the hell out if more than one person uses it or or moves it while in use

It also stores a lot of data compared to most furniture

[faint flare]

Dont want to give players something that literally crashes servers

[rigid dust]

what class would merlwyb be? i just got out of a cutscene where she was wielding two pistols, but didnt seem to have the weird aether fanny-pack thing that machinists use o:

[faint flare]

Unique job

Key npcs are usually unique or special

[little swift]

They would have a variant job as well if it were relevant knowledge

[faint flare]

Probably just Machinist base with unique animations

For her

[rigid dust]

i guess it makes sense that the leaders wouldnt just be like, normal jobs and stuff. avoids the whole "im a better machinist anyways, why cant i run limsa~?" lol

[alpine shadow]

in a programming stance, why would a furniture store userdata?

and not fetching the data when used.

[karmic niche]

to know who using it

[rigid dust]

i have honestly been trying to figure that out for the longest time ;-;
the way its described, it sounds like youre programatically quite literally storing the clothes in the dresser 😂

[faint flare]

Because SE is great at coding

[manic rune]

spaghetti code strikes again

the glamour system was flawed from the beginning

because players are “storing” item data for up to 400 different items in there

things like spiritbond, dyes, the original crafter of the item, etc

[alpine shadow]

but they are unique to each player.

[manic rune]

yeah

Gamer Escape: I’m curious why we haven’t seen the glamour dresser as a furnishing item yet?

Y: In terms of having a furnishing item… there’s a scary amount of item data connected to it. Something like a glamour dresser has a few hundred items associated with it. With furnishing items, you can move it around, or someone else can move it around… it’s very dangerous and risky and very unstable to have an item like that for you to place in your own personal housing.

I’m sure with the convenience of moving around normal furnishings, or having retainers available, or having the ability to access market boards, it’s logical to think, “why can’t we have it as an item?” but the engineering behind that, having the items taken out, but suddenly not having it there, or having other people affect the location of the dresser…. we have to be very careful in working on that. That’s why we can’t just have it available as a furnishing item or something that can be readily placed.

https://gamerescape.com/2018/06/17/e3-2018-interview-with-naoki-yoshida-and-masayoshi-soken/

[rigid dust]

it looks like there's a one-to-one relationship between players and the Glamour Dresser, and all of the item data is stored on the dresser's model ;-;

[alpine shadow]

That's more of an answer that the dresser could create bugs since you could move the dresser while you are using it.

[manic rune]

some insight on how the code behind it works nonetheless

it’s mainly just that the game is built on some fucked up code and they have to find a way to work every new feature around it

sounds like database issues too

[manic flare]

what class is Moenbryda?

just asking because she wears a Dravanian Tunic of Aiming

[alpine shadow]

seems like it would be difficult to fix it since it is an old system

[manic flare]

but somehow i dont thinnk she is a a machinist/bard/dancer

[open coral]

I don't think we ever see her in combat.

[timid geyser]

Isn't she a marauder ?

[manic flare]

cuz she a roe?

[timid geyser]

No cause i'm p sure i saw her use an axe

Yeah, wiki says she's a Marauder.

[raven sage]

npcs can wear whatever gear they want

It doesn't denote their class

(that's in reference to the shirt not the axe)

[alpine shadow]

yeah, even players that play ffxiv can also wear whatever gear they want

[twilit arch]

fairly certain though if she was to be anything, she would be musketeer

which was intended to be a class in 1.0 iirc but never became a thing

Cancel Sub, and Resub

[smoky hawk]

ahh thanks

[twilit arch]

dont have to cancel

can just do credit/debit paymet or crysta to change it

[alpine shadow]

Ah yeah, it looks like when you try to upgrade for example, you do have to pay.

bet the downgrade is free..

[smoky hawk]

ahh the cancel thing worked

[alpine shadow]

rip kael.

[smoky hawk]

now it wont autorenew

lol I was a bit too slow to check here again

[alpine shadow]

Yeah, you have to sub again. then add autorenew

[twilit arch]

I mean i know for a fact you don't have to cancel sub to lower to entry

[smoky hawk]

well I specifically dont want autorenew lol

[twilit arch]

because i've done it myself several times

oh how does that work then?

not that I can do that now that ive already done the other method

[alpine shadow]

select credit card at https://img.thaun.dev/4j4le.png

ahh okay

[viscid fossil]

Does Bitter Memory of the Dying drop from fates like the other 3 Memory?

[forest sage]

no, 60 dungeons and leveling roulette(when bonus), it says so when you get the quest pretty sure

oh and bozjan fates if that's what you meant

not HW fates

maybe that's what you mean then the answer is yes sry

[viscid fossil]

Oh ok so it drops from Bozjan? Missing the 4th

[forest sage]

yeah, droprate isn't amazing there though

[viscid fossil]

Oh :c I thought it would be easy like others

[forest sage]

it's a lot faster to run 60 dungeons/do your roulette

well you only need 6 instead of 60

[twilit arch]

bozja is still good for all the memories

[viscid fossil]

Any 60 dungeons?

with bonus?

[forest sage]

if you're still lvling in bozjan then just keep going you'll get a few/all of them

[twilit arch]

ideally though you want to be in a cluster farm party for them tbh since having the group split between all 3 sections means you cover them all

[forest sage]

any 60 dungeon regardless, roulette only when you have daily bonus

[twilit arch]

keep in mind that you need to have the quest active to receive the bitter memories

[forest sage]

oh yeah that too

if that's your first weapon, you have to turn in these memories

and get the 2nd step

they won't drop if you're not on the step

you don't have to turn in or farm on the same class, just keep a class always on 2nd step so they continuously drop

[viscid fossil]

oh wait ok I am reading some wiki online got confused now

I need 20x of those memories 3 types first?

[twilit arch]

yes

so a total of 60 for the first step

[viscid fossil]

then 6x those on the next quest

[twilit arch]

mhm

[forest sage]

yeah

the 2nd step only drop when you're on it though

[abstract vapor]

is getting new Squadrons members rng?

[viscid fossil]

Thanks! helpful

[twilit arch]

yes

whenever you complete a challenge log you have a chance of getting a new recruit

[forest sage]

the pool of members depends on the type of log you complete to spawn them, but the members themselves are random within that pool

[abstract vapor]

oh okay

thanks

[forest sage]

oh and you can get members 100% of the time with the buff scroll thing

recruitment scroll or whatever, you can buy them with GC seals iirc and also get one weekly from the final lvl 40 assignment

[twilit arch]

that's not a 100% increase

[abstract vapor]

I'll look into that

[twilit arch]

its just an increased chance

[half stone]

anyone want Recruiyment code? P2PVHUPZ

[twilit arch]

not really the place to drop a random recruitment code

[open coral]

@manic flare Unless you're answering a specific question, bot commands should be used in #kupo-bot-spam

[manic flare]

i have a question about sleeve draw

but i dont even know where to begin

the entire description just doesn't make sense

[twilit arch]

you draw a card

it assures that the card has a seal you dont already have

that's all there is to it

[manic flare]

When aligned with all three seals, any arcanum may be drawn.
what about this?

[twilit arch]

it means that it'll give you any seal

[jade lava]

that just means if you have all three seals the effect is ignored

[manic flare]

and this?

You cannot draw an arcanum if you are aligned with its Seal of Arcana.

[open coral]

All AST cards are associated with one of three seals. If you have all three, you can get any card, not just one associated with seals you already have.

[twilit arch]

it means it can't draw a card that you already have a seal of

[manic flare]

oh ok

[jade lava]

'aligned' means you have it

[twilit arch]

so if you have a lunar seal, you won't be able to get a card that has a lunar seal attached to it

[open coral]

Basically the "aligned with all three seals" parameter overrides the "cannot draw a seal you have" parameter.

Im just levelling still the dungeons seems very unplayable I mean people start running like crazy not stopping I can bearly cast anything or practicing any job all just dies so fast the only thing I can touch a bit more is a boss, I cant even explore a bit because everybody is running I mean no fun at all

[jade quartz]

Dungeons aren’t about exploring

[leaden ginkgo]

Hope the game becames better later

[jade quartz]

Keep up with the party

Everyone’s there to get it done

Press your sprint button and stay with the party.

[faint flare]

Then aoe stuff down when they stop

Dungeons are straight lines anyway

[leaden ginkgo]

yes but thats not fun for new players

[jade quartz]

Maybe it’s not fun for you

It’s fun for plenty of new players

[faint flare]

You're not missing anything

[jade quartz]

But fast clears is the meta in this game

People have stuff to do with their lives

They don’t wanna take the long way unnecessarily

[faint flare]

All those side rooms in arr completely vanish in later dungeons

Dungeons are literally straight lines

[manic flare]

i feel like fast clears are the meta for every rpg

[faint flare]

Go point A to point B

[slate arrow]

Dungeons in later expansions are designed to be more setpieces rather than something to explore

[manic flare]

sometimes there are side chests that people miss out on

[faint flare]

Which have literally nothing useful

[jade quartz]

The side chests contain nothing of consequence.

[faint flare]

And barley worth mentioning

[little swift]

You have about 10 minutes after clearing to explore

[manic flare]

for example, in dzemael, no one ever bothers to go down in the zone with the large frogs, there's a cavern down there with 3 extra chests

[faint flare]

Which has a potion

Yay

[little swift]

And there's free exploration mode in the current expansion dungeons

[slate arrow]

I feel like we've kinda run away from the question.

[manic flare]

im not talking about the first side room

there's a cavern in the base of the cliff (the area where alot of inexperienced people die due to the frogs), with 3 extra chests that have potential equipment loot

i have never seen anyone go for those

in all the time i've ran roulette

[faint flare]

Too much hassle for no real gain

There's enough on the path

[slate arrow]

A: it's roulette
B: why should they go out of their way when ARR dungeons guarantee one piece of gear for your current job now

[leaden ginkgo]

yes even wow is fast on low level dungeons but not that crazy fast I mean at least you have to know the dungeon for not getting lost and everything

[polar cairn]

in housing do the houses become available after each hour? or can the timer be like 4 hours 23 min and 15 seconds?

[faint flare]

Literally at any point

Its a completely random timer

so the latter

[slate arrow]

It's also hidden

To everyone but the current owner

And then the buy timer is also hidden

[eager lichen]

Returning player. Does anyone have a recruitment code? Would that help someone

[manic flare]

tbf, in sastasha, there are extra rooms with captured slaves which reveal more about the lore of the dungeon

there are extra stuff if u care to look for them

to keep it away from gen, what's this little blue icon next to a mobs name?

[faint flare]

[eager lichen]

I generally play TOR and I saw a recruitment code window pop up. In TOR, people generally WANT to recruit. Will it help someone? If so, does someone want to recruit me?

[little swift]

You can't enter a code

[faint flare]

Also that

[eager lichen]

I don't have a sub. Haven't for years

[twilit arch]

datacenter doesn't matter for recruitment code

[faint flare]

If you had one prior

[little swift]

But you were subbed

[eager lichen]

the game asked me to find one, so I came here

"

"

[faint flare]

If you ever had a sub you're illegible

[eager lichen]

Well, the game seems to think you're wrong?

[manic flare]

If you wish to redeem a recruitment code, it must be entered before purchase of a subscription

[faint flare]

Did you ever buy a sub

[eager lichen]

Right, I don't have one. And the game says this:

[faint flare]

did you ever buy a sub

Back when you played

[manic flare]

@eager lichen you said you were a returning player

were on a free trial

or were you subbed

[eager lichen]

Listen, I have this.

It's asking

If someone has one, cool. If not, I'll dip. It doesn't matter to me

Reddit

[eager lichen]

I don't use reddit

I only use discord

[faint flare]

Well thats the place for it

[manic flare]

@eager lichen i will pm you

[dire prawn]

I has question

Before I go in here

What is the White Wolf Gate I just unlocked

[little swift]

Another exit from gridania

[faint flare]

Zone transition

To bentmarrow

[dire prawn]

oh

[faint flare]

That area

[dire prawn]

Oh it's just another way to get to Central Shroud

[twilit arch]

white wolf gate is the upper part, close to the north shroud exit in central

[faint flare]

Pops you out in the highrt level area with the lv30

[manic flare]

how do i find a friend recruitment code?

[faint flare]

Mogstation

Under your account

[junior yacht]

what's the min ilvl needed to complete the non-savage/ex 5.4 content?

[eager lichen]

ill brb while you find it. I'll send you a fr

[little swift]

485

[twilit arch]

485 for eden's promise

[little swift]

500 if you want emerald ex

[junior yacht]

not right now, but thanks

[dire prawn]

Alright

Under my next MSQ I have a called My Feisty Little Chocobo that's under it

[faint flare]

Thats to let your chocobo fight with you

[dire prawn]

[little swift]

Let's you summon your cobra chicken for overworld battles

[jade quartz]

I mean

[dire prawn]

So definitely do it then since I'm a solo healer

[jade quartz]

When you see a quest there

Don’t come check with us

100% of the time do it

[dire prawn]

I just check with y'all mostly for the that pop up after I've done something else that weren't already there

[crimson crystal]

I always do because they unlock special stuff

but that's just me

[dire prawn]

I'm skipping all the job ones and ones that don't really have an effect on me as a free trial player

So when the not job ones pop up I ask what they unlock if the description doesn't mention jack diddly

[faint flare]

The image if any usually is a tell

[dire prawn]

When I finish this for the Chocobo do I have to summon it when I'm in battle or does it automatically come out

[obsidian patio]

You use an item to summon it for combat

!item gyshal greens

[zinc orbit]

Error!

Item not found, Kupo!

[obsidian patio]

!item gysahl greens

[zinc orbit]

**Gysahl Greens** **:** Miscellany : ilvl 20

*A leafy vegetable indigenous to the Near East. While too bitter for most people's tastes, chocobos are known to enjoy the flavor, and thus the greens are often used as fodder for the animals.

[obsidian patio]

You can buy it from a couple vendors spread around, but the easiest one to access is Bango Zango near the Limsa Lominsa aetheryte

[little swift]

The bentbranch stables should have a vendor for them as well

A stack of 99 can last you quite a bit

[dire prawn]

And I can put this in my hotbar so I don't have to open my inventory right

[twilit arch]

yep

[dire prawn]

What's the best stance for a WHM

Defender I'd assume?

[twilit arch]

no, tank bo is pretty meh

even for healers

[high rain]

Super noob market board question. Without a physical keyboard, is there an easier way to set prices for your items on the market board for PS4 than holding L1?

[final quest]

what is the best way to get skybuilder scrips as a low level crafter/gatherer?

[twilit arch]

generally dps/healer bo are better, though you should just leave it in free stance

[dire prawn]

Leave it in free stance and pick skills from Attacker and/or Healer trees then?

[twilit arch]

getting atleast choco regen and then dumping the rest of the points into dps tree is general recommendation, can go a bit deeper into healer tree to get choco cure but thats up to you

[dire prawn]

ohh

[twilit arch]

eventually, if you care enough you can get them all

[dire prawn]

Does my choco level with me 🤔

[twilit arch]

but getting to rank 20 can be a bit expensive since you need a thavnairian onion for each lvl after 10

[dire prawn]

Or do I have to use it in fights for it to level

[twilit arch]

it gets a bit of exp whenever kill mobs, yes

and its lvl is based on your lvl

[gloomy ice]

You can highlight the numbers like a normal textbox and then use your dpad to adjust the numbers that way.

[obsidian patio]

Press x on the price and use the Dpad to adjust the number

[dire prawn]

What kind of items typically would I store in my Chocobo's saddlebag

[faint flare]

Whatever you want

Its extra storage

[final quest]

what i do is store dye and furniture for when i get an apartment or house

[silver ruin]

retainer or theres a store room inside the apartment/house for furniture specifically

[reef knot]

is it worth trying to put 5 materia slots on the 510 gear or should i wait for 520 gear

[faint flare]

Pentamelding isn't worth it at this stage

[reef knot]

oo okay thanks i was just curious : p

[glacial isle]

Is there a quicker/more efficient way of making gil aside from grinding low-level dungeons/roulettes all week?

[slate arrow]

playing the marketboard

making things to sell via the marketboard

gathering things to sell via the marketboard

[agile laurel]

outside of maps, raw gil sources simply from playing the game are going to be scarce

[glacial isle]

Curse the economic calamity that is the NPC Market

[agile laurel]

and even then unless your luck's really shit maps give out more pricey items than raw gil anyway

[glacial isle]

"Yes I'll buy that 12k gil equipment i just sold you for the price of a kid's meal at the Sandstorm"

[slate arrow]

because you're not supposed to use the NPCs to make money

unless you're selling the money pieces

[viscid fossil]

Can you get Bitter Memories of the Dying from lvl60+ raid?

[glacial isle]

then what's the point of giving every item in the game an NPC selling value

[jade quartz]

So you can trash them easily

[faint flare]

A way to dump it

[silver ruin]

no

[viscid fossil]

aw

[jade quartz]

Would be weirder to make them all prohibited

[silver ruin]

the level 60 dungeons only

[viscid fossil]

So it's only from

[faint flare]

No

[silver ruin]

morricanes arbitoreum etc

[viscid fossil]

and 60 normal 4 people?

[silver ruin]

flat 60 dungeons

[viscid fossil]

ok

[faint flare]

Levelling roulette, lv60 SYNCED dungeons or Bojza mobs

[silver ruin]

^

etc

[jade quartz]

Dungeons are 4 people

[silver ruin]

for synced 60 dungeons

[viscid fossil]

Sorry 4 xD thanks

[lone zephyr]

does the blacklist have a limit?

[raven sage]

it says 200

[lone zephyr]

fck how am I supposed to block all those ERP ads in pf once it gets full

D:

[jade quartz]

There’s no real reason to block those

[lone zephyr]

Still dont wanna see that ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[jade quartz]

Then don’t scroll to the bottom of pf, where they are located.

[lone zephyr]

oh yeah I should also scroll to where I dont see the ads on articles instead of getting an adblock i guess

[jade quartz]

PF ads are not intrusive so that’s not a good comparison.

Regardless, those are all your options.

[naive kraken]

you peruse the other section for melding or other stuff? seems simple to stick to specific parts of the PF

[slate arrow]

As long as they're not using roulettes as a skip to the front page they're not breaking any rules

[lone zephyr]

Yeah, and sometimes look for crafters through PF because I don't have crafters leveled to gear my other jobs

[rocky tide]

Does anyone know if you can res someone if they fall off the edge in sephirot extreme?

[faint flare]

No, Sephirot extreme is the last time Perma death appears

Until Titan unreal at 80

[rocky tide]

Thanks so much Tails!

I'll probably go into sophia with the sprout group then!

[lean parcel]

does anyone know if the game fixed floating wall mounted/tabletop items for housing? I can't seem to replicate it anymore when I'm following the right steps. The item seems to be detected as separated when i hover over the anchor, but when i want to return it to inventory or storehouse it just redetects the attached furniture again

[silver ruin]

no both work

[rocky tide]

I have to rotate the items to lock them into place after I move them

[silver ruin]

^

you have to do that

thats always been what you've had to do

if thats not your issue something else is happening

[lean parcel]

im doing on wall mounted items right now and i have no idea why it's not working when it used to

like i tried selecting the item and sure the partition is detected separately already

but when i pressed return to storehouse or inventory the wall mounted item gets reattached for some reason and prevents it

any of you wanna get in a call and let me screenshare and see if im doing things wrong? cause i rly dk whats happening and i dont see people saying that its patched

[rocky zenith]

How long do you guys think it takes to get all the memories for a relic weapon upgrade?

[lean parcel]

like this should already be separated since the wall planter is not highlighted

then if i select return to inventory or open the subcommand for the partition to store it

[open coral]

Depends on how you intend to do it. If you do it with FATE farming in a group, maybe 2 or 3 hours, tops. Doing it in Bozja... a lot longer.

[lean parcel]

oh

im sorry

i forgot to move the wall OUT

JDKSLFJKLDSLSH

[rocky tide]

Glad you figured it out! Yuujira!

[lean parcel]

im actually stupid. thanks for allowing me to waste your time

[rocky zenith]

FATE farm for Heavensward right?

[open coral]

Correct.

[faint flare]

Bojza can be faster

With a efficient party

[rocky zenith]

Hmm well hopefully I can gather a good one.

Well thanks for answering my question.

[faint flare]

2 people in each area minimum, other 2 go can anywhere...bloodsucker warriors + 1 dps

Mass pull everything in sight

Ez

Slap spellforge and lost slashs

[open coral]

Ehh, I'd still say FATEs are more efficient, since you're guaranteed one memory per FATE.

[faint flare]

I'm killing 80 mobs at once

[open coral]

RNG is still RNG

[faint flare]

Even with the drop rate, shit rains all types

[twilit arch]

you also might not find active FATE parties either

so

they both have their pros and cons

[faint flare]

I casually and lazily got like 140 yellows when solo spawning duels

Like 3-5 per mass pull

[open coral]

Way better than the numbers I was seeing.

I was lucky to get 1-2 per mass pull.

[faint flare]

There was 1 drop minimum at least

I was pulling like 20 mobs or so

[open coral]

But I always have really bad rng, which is why I'll typically recommend the guaranteed FATE drops over Bozja farming for those.

[leaden ginkgo]

Well, I'll just say this, I leveled up dark knight in bozja from 73 to 80 and I barely got any memories
