Remember to turn on partial match
I'm about to enter Stone Vigil as soon as I eat
What should I be expecting and what should I watch out for as the healer
where can I find crafter macros? i'm at lv 70
I need to update the #doh-dol-lounge pins >.>
thanks!
It might have more enemies roaming around than the dungeons you have experienced before
So try not to stray
patroling mobs are a thing that people can accidentally grab
fishing is too damn hard, it must be impossible to get this legend fish https://img.thaun.dev/llbx8.png
Otherwise, just be careful
it's not impossible
just specific fishing windows
and by specific
I think the hardest one has like, an hour window every month or so?
maybe even less e3e
boils down to just using a guide and Teamcraft/Garlond Tools/Cat Became Hungry
also sacrificing lalafels to rnjesus
How does Pentamelding work? Can all 5 be VIII? (Can it go more than 5?) Idek.
the only reason it's not complete ass is because since the weather schedule was leaked years back makes it possible to plan ahead
no, 6/8 can only be overmelded once
tl;dr 6/8s in all green slots + first slot past, 5/7s afterwards
rest will generally be 7s or lower
In the guide it says ```You’re only going to get the opportunity to catch the Endoceras from 9 pm to 5 pm Eorzea time. You’ll have the most luck if it’s cloudy, but windy and foggy weather work too.
for Endoceras
I think teamcraft should have the gathering windows for fishes, but I'm not sure
ok now I'm confused.. 😄 What's the 6? (assuming the 8 is the materia grade or w/e)
6 was grade 8 before Shadowbringers
back when Stormblood was current you used 6s in green slots + first overmeld slot
Mayhap an example would suit me better... Aesthete's Alembic, 1 green slot
and say the Aesthete hat that has 2 green slots
3 grade 8s 2 grade 7s
So I've only been focusing mainly on MSQs and job quests and have already reached level 45, but from what I'm reading levelling slows down starting at 50 to 60. Do MSQs still give good exp or is it time to start focusing on other things like beast tribe quests and roulettes?
you'll generally get enough exp to keep doing the story for the most part
It temporarily gets reduced for the post patch quests
Then returns to normal for expansion story
So you're not overlevelled out thr ass
Only been playing a few days but sunk a ton of time in already
when you're doing level 50/60/70 quests EXP gains are reduced since you didn't get exp when it was current
i fished so much i levld up from 71-to-72 for attempting to get one lvl50 fish.
For the most part level 30-50 is the same as 50-60 in terms of time/exp if you're doing on level dungeons/story quests
if you have the road to 70 buff you are more as fine, if not you can throw in a leveling roulette sometimes if you want but msq is mostly enough to level 1 job
Okay, so I can just keep on as I am, maybe throw in some random dailies here and there?
yep
yeah
generally slapping roulettes if you're under leveled should be enough

Awesome, appreciate it
At 50-60, if you do all the roulettes, you’ll go up 2 levels per day. This is with the +100% Exp armory bonus and +10% FC bonus, and +3% food bonus
Also, the weekly Challenge log bonus gives you some extra exp
Most everything I read didn't mention the MSQs, so I'm guessing they're meant more for people levelling a new job/char and not their main?
Where does arr relic quest start... The blacksmith guy
Which zone in gridania was it?
I remember its somewhere in gridania
Fallgourd Float
Rightbty
👍
first quest (very first one)
starts in vesper bay
subsequent ones can begin in north shroud @leaden ginkgo
Stone Vigil hurt
@icy kiln alternate jobs get the Armory bonus, which is a +100% extra exp bonus to all mob kills
This also stacks with other EXP bonuses so subsequent job leveling is muh faster in comparison
Yeah, I found him in fallground float
If it's your first job yeah focus on the MSQ
yes if you spend enough time on it
Your first one will take a while. I did it in about 4 days no lifing on the first one
and have the capital to work with
Subsequent ones you can stockpile some of the materials but some will be absolutely ass to do
Such as the light stages and books
which you can't skip
Yeah light is familiar haha I already did 2 anima lux for drk and whm
mhmm
prevents knockback/draw in actions
also lets you not be interrupted casting stuff say if you get smacked
rescue 🤔
As an example, surecast nullifies rescue
So I can't use Rescue if Surecast is active?
no,
Or Surecast would stop another healer from pulling me
yes
This applies to most knockbacks
However, there are some mechanics which do nullify surecast
For example, Down for the Count knockbacks
I am
32,000 exp away
From getting Holy

I took Teleport and Return off my first hotbar for Holy
Is Holy the reward for my Lv 45 job quest
Or do I unlock it automatically
Reward
Guys Im running amdapor keep unsync reql fast and I cant open last doors to boss
What did I miss
I press on Presence Chamber Door, but UI shortly disappears and comes back less than a second
Qnd it doesnt open
Nothing in chat?
No
If it's not something related to mobs in the last wall, then it's likely just a bug
Uhhh I dont want to run it again dx
Ill just backtrack qnd see if I missed something oof
There wqs just now circle aoe appaear out of nowheee
I dont see any mobs though
Nvm xdd
I missed one succubus
Alright
What the fuck
I have to go to Mor Dhona for my job quest???
I'VE NEVER BEEN ANYWHERE CLOSE TO MOR DHONA GAME HOW DO I GET THERE
Northern shroud
through coerthas central highlands theres a way through
And go west
as well as north shroud iirc
Or throw coerthas yeah
north shroud just leads into coerthas
the other entrance to mor dhona is from northern thanalan
Northern Thanalan
Funnily enough, one of the spots I have to pray in is in Northern Thanalan
So how do I get to Mor Dhona from there
its literally the northeastern zone line
Is it easier to get there through Northern Thanalan or Coerthas Central Highlands
Coerthas is safer and brings you closer to the aetheryte camp.
coerthas is arguably the easier/safer of the two
Coerthas it is then
since the zone line is, as eton said, right next to the camp itself
lol, just changed from archer to gladiator and didn't know I wouldn't be able to use the same gear. now I'm naked!
oof
hey im thinking about buying and getting into ffxiv again it looks like a fun game but for me its confusing and i can never get it ive tried 2 times in the past and i cant even get past the beginning i was wondering if i do get it is someone willing to help me and guide me atleast until i can get the hang of things myself?
!faq newplayertips
thank you
Soon as I enter Mor Dhona and get exp for discovering it
What does this quest unlock 🤔
its one of the two glamour unlock quests
Same as Color Your World in Vesper Bay then?
Where the hell is 'If I Had a Glamour' then
same npc as "color your world"
Oh
Hey pals! So today my audio for FFXIV just suddenly cut right out
My audio mixer says FFXIV is not making any sound
Any idea on fixes?
Folks, is there a way to change your appearance in this game?
the aesthetician can change your hairstyle and other facial features
some with the aesthetics bell you unlock in Limsa
Race and racial traits with Fantasia from the Online Store
fantasias can change your race and gender outright, but you only get one of those for free
any more than that will cost cold hard cash
Ok, hmm... thinking about just doing my hair for now. The aesthetician is in the major towns?
all inn rooms
the quest to unlock them is in limsa
yes you do have to have unlocked it first
after you unlock him anyways
And like, 2000 gil. You do get a single free use ticket from the quest
I hate Mor Dhona
Ok I’m boutta do a fresh install of ff14 but how do i get this game to install to my ssd ant not my hdd?
I had no idea how to get to the area that goes to Northern Thanalan and I aggro'd a Lv 50 giant lizard thing with the weird aggro icon
And it oneshot me
@sudden wolf install the launcher to your SSD
Can someone briefly explain how duty roulette XP works? Sometimes I get a bajillion exp for alliance raid but I just got 3mill for it today
@placid ridge ~40% of an exp bar, regardless of level up
Ah, lol makes sense
So if you're 20% away from level 69, you'll also get 20% to level 70
Lvl 70 is 12 mill total
Roulettes go by %
There's not really any numerical math besides taking the current exp you need and multiplying it by ~.4
(it does grant more below level 50 but once you get there it's around 40%, give or take.)
And is that value the same for all roulettes?
So like leveling, trials
I feel like 8man gives like nothing
trials only give like 10% but it's worth since most trials only take 5-10 mins
Hi! I have a Bozjan Runners secrets (head gear) that dropped from castrum months ago, why is it so expensive? Should I keep it pr it’s only good for glamour?
It's the gear augment and the head ones cost 500 coins
Selllll
Nobody in their right mind grinds out the coins for the augment
I used a leg and arm one and I regret that very much
But is there any use other than glam?
how much a roulette gives its basically based on its time/effort
They are functional only in Boz
Like, it’s gonna be useful next patch?
This makes sense based on my time doing them
but not all roulettes are really equal when it comes to exp given because some really aren't intended to be used for leveling
liek 50-70 roulette is mainly for poetics
maybe? I mean if you want a specific GCD in bozja this is the only way to get it since gear syncs to 430 and I assume Bozja 2 will be the same
but gives some xp so its not completely worthless if you're using it <80
What’s the benefit of wearing that head gear inside bozja?
The dream of a Guildhests roulette giving 40% max xp
haste +1
Each point of haste in Bozja reduces your GCD by 0.02
Well thanks for the xp responses guys, appreciate it
Which is basically + skill speed but to a massive effect (in comparison to SkS)
And more exp for classes in the 70s?
Yeah I’m selling then, thanks!
Ok I finished first steo and received thyrus
But now what?
Everything else is red and locked
And therea no another quest for whm

Buy 3 Thavnairian Mists from the sundry splendors in the main city-states or Auriana in Mor Dhona
And then take those and the weapon to the forge near Gerolt
Ok aill try
For the sundry splendors they’re in the combat supplies > special arms materials
That worked
You don't, as it usually comes pre-augmented. If you talk to rowena's suppliers in Mor Dhona they'll sell you the ironworks stuff for tomestones of poetics
That forge in Northern shroud
bruh they really put a npc there
How many of eqch atma do I need?
painge
Hmm what do you mean?
1 per 'weapon'
Including the sword and shield of paladin
Specifically 10 for all arr relics
yeah shouldve specify that
Honestly arr relics are just just for glamour or bragging rights
Yeag
Just fair warning
I want it for glam getting it as actual gear makes no sense
Tbh I think the anima relics from hw look better in most cases
What's the quickest way to Outer La Noscea
So Upper La Noscea then go up to Outer
is there a way to report players for being an ass?
Yes, through the support desk
You can only directly report for RMT since the chat logs make it easy for GMs to verify
Everything else is through the support desk
since I don't think I need any of the quest rewards here, would it be better to take the armour and vendor it, or take the materia and see if I could possibly put it on the market board?
the gear can be sold on marketboard
bois i got 2000 tomes of allegory i got no idea where to spend them in
and likely sells for more than the materia
tips?
crafting materials, sell on marketboard
anyone or is there any in particular that sells well?
This gear in particular can also be bought from vendors, I'm pretty sure.
or maybe crafted idk?
The mats from Spirit ether upwards
it's the High Steel stuff, I'm 90% sure it's vendor gear
Oh that's a good point.
so, you're right in that yes it can sort of be bought from vendors
but the fact that its HQ means its gonna be better than what the vendor sells
any reason why every dungeon says explorer mode unavailable?
Only Shadowbringers dungeons have it
Thanks
Nothing in particular sells well but if you ever plan on making relic weapons for glamour it might be worth spending on some of those mats
do people regularly re-base their retainers to take advantage of low taxes
use it turning trash pulls
@dire prawn it is a wide area AOE that also stuns
one of WHM's most important skills
the tank will be mad at u if u dont use it
Is it the only reason I'd ever be where the tank is
yes because it has limited range
u need to be at where the mobs are
for holy to land
so basically
the spell itself has large range
but
u can't cast it from a distance
like with asylum
the spell discharges very close to where u are at
Oh it's an AoE with myself as the center
you need to keep up with them for trash pulls regardless
precisely
Do I cast it consecutively or use it once cast something else then cast Holy again
u keep spamming holy
until u need to heal
The spell also snapshots the location of where you are when the cast finishes. Particularly annoying when your tank moves a mob just before the spell goes off
so its not awful to cast something else in between the first and second stun if you need to for setting up the pull properly
but its fine to spam and then just keep an eye on the tank hp as well
Not always avoidable. Just annoying and something to remember
if u have regen on the tank, you will be able to spam multiple holies consecutively
unless the tank is pulling wall to wall
if the tank is pulling wall to wall they'll appreciate the holy spam regardless
7s of free mitigation is nothing to be sad about
Yeah swiftcast/presence of mind are your friends there
u shouldn't really be stressed that much in stone vigil, unless the tank is undergeared or is pulling wall to wall
Never hurts to pop it during a dps check
is there a faster class for doing unsynced low level dungeons than samurai? i really like how their gap closer/widener is gauge based and cheap
Red mage or a physical ranged like dancer are also good options @mental garnet
If you're using it off cooldown there shouldn't be any reason you "pop" it for a dps check
It would align with some raidbuffs instead
Don't save it of you can
Its free and should be used to your advantage
is there a way to get a sound notification when a friend comes online?
No.
nope
So always use PoM
What does a minion do?
Looks cute
Just a toy
Just that right?
Anyone knows what level is the msq of mounts?
20
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
Ok thanks (y)
Will diamond weapon be 5.45 or 5.5 content?
5.5
5.45 is on Tuesday iirc and that would be way too soon
In a dungeon, is all so fast, I mean, I checked a chest, what option is to choose?
Then after we completed it, suddenly gear came to me, I did not even interact with the las chest
Meaning they couldn't be bothered to roll or wait so it just defaults to you
Completing levelling dungeons (between level caps) will give you a piece of gear for your current job
All loot appears in the notification area of your HUF
Hud
Click the button to open the Loot UI
once there you'll see need, greed, and pass. You'll have to roll individually for all of them.
i.e. level 57, 15, 73 requirements would all be levelling dungeons
Where the heck do I got for deltascape 2.0? just beat 1.0 but i have no idea where to go next
Duty finder
after doing the sidequest to unlock in the rift
Only could choose greed
And the last chest, nothing loool
I used duty finder only see the option to do deltascape v1.0 again
Need you get it
Pass, you pass it
But greed?
Greed lets you roll on it
greed is need with less priority
There priorities
Need beats greed
used for gear that's not for your job
Need can only be used if the loot is for your current job
So if you want a physical DPS chestpiece but you're a mage, tank, or healer, you have to roll greed
So a bard/archer can roll need on a bow but no one else can
Everyone else will roll greed
If multiple people roll need, highest need gets it. The greed rolls aren't even counted
nvm found it had to go to peering stones
Then you probably haven't progressed the quest beating 1.0 should put you in the area to do so

Nah. After beating it, need to go back to peering stones to talk to Alpha again in the stupid area
Great that need is only for the job, if not, the fastest get it
And I think the ones I were with, were skipping cutscenes or something
Many enemies were left behind also
Yeah if everyone else leaves the last person in a dungeon gets any loot that hasn't been distributed
Typically people will go for the fastest clear of a dungeon, which means skipping mobs in side chambers.
That's why enemies were left behind.
which dungeon is dark hold?
i'm following a leveling guide and can't seem to find that one
sidequest unlock
either from your Grand Company or a person near the Waking Sands
I think
dzemael darkhold is a sidequest dungeon, unlocked by either "Fort of Fear" or "Shadows Uncast"
Fort of Fear
Fort of Fear being right outside the dungeon entrance itself i n coerthas
shadows uncast being at your grand company HQ
Are the new jobs of every expansion released in .55 update or something?
Shadows Uncast would be when your GC wants you to go and raid it right
shadows uncast unlocks it a swell
so you don't technically need to do fort of fear
very, very very unlikely any job is going to be released in .5x update @wintry sable
new jobs are generally released with expansions
Jobs are primarily an expansion type thing
How can people level up them so fast?
By dungeon spamming
expansion jobs start at higher levels
I meant to start the new expansion MSQ ._.
Time consuming
i mean you could
To avoid spoilers
it really doesn't take that long to get 10 lvls
People cap in Bojza in like 5 hours
since like vinyl said, new jobs are likely going to start at 70
70-80 in few hours? Excuse me?
I have not seen this happening
I myself am doing Bozja amd it take days
I do join parties ._.
And get done in a few hours as well
But really never heard of anyone leveling from Bozja 71-80 in few hours
Great loot in dungeons right? I mean, dungeons are not only for level up?
Depends
Some dungeons gives you useless loot
Some does give you proper gear
But depends
Early on dungeon gear blows if you have tome pieces
Most leveling dungeons gives you upgrades always
Its actually decently easy to level 70-80 jobs when the new expac drops
Because Armory bonus gets increased + exp accessory with preorder of dlc, which they probably will continue
hello, my friend and I have been playing ff14 for awhile and are looking to join a clan that is actively doing endgame content. anyone recruiting?
Check #494379215420915712
There's already the bojzan earring for 70-80
thanks
What the difference between entry and standard
You can make more characters
Do they cost the same?
Pick a option
Oh ok thanks
Also the vet rewards it says I get day 140 and 260 but I’ve only been a sub for 2 months
If I renew my subscription do I still get them?
Anything under Options/choose is a choice
@white ether You’ll get them
A free trial can not choose in duty information add member?
I was in a cool group, but could not add me to their party
Lol
I has questions
just ask
I'm at the Howling Eye for my MSQ to kill Garuda
Except I have absolutely no clue as to what Garuda does
you can look up a guide on youtube if you really want to
its not that hard to figure out though
kill feathers, stand behind rocks when she does the wind attack, dont step in tornadoes
My main advice is when after she destroys the pillars, get behind her whenever she jumps away and to the center
Because she’ll do a heavy hitting cleave in front of her
ARR duties in general arent that hard to figure out
what are these???
ooh lol thx
pretty sure it tells you in the job guide in actions and traits
Unsynced dungeons drop as many items as if it was run normally, right?
yes
Okay, thanks
Its limited to what you have unlocked as well
Most pfs are set up for late endgame stuff
does allagan melon seed grow straight into the melon pet?
Yes
how do
Hey, if I wanted to get the demon gear from the World of Darkness alliance raid just for glamour, is there any option I have besides just runnin the raid? Ithought I heard something about it a long time ago.
how do I make more gils? newbie here
Yes, but, party finder only shows online ones?
Ok
I have it with the duty lock, and 8?
What
if you mean the roles like 3/4 tanks thats how many people are currently matched with you
@dense hound there's a crafted lvl 70 shared model that you can buy on the mb
What does Going for Gold unlock
Keep playing msq and stuff for now. Not much use for gil in the game. If you're on trial you'll reach the cap really quickly too
excellent, what's that called?
which armor specifically did you want
Aurum Vale
striking and casting
replica something?
A dungeon
ooh
What do you all use to view alliance raid sets?
Is it worth unlocking
Its another levelling dungeon
So yes
teleporting fee is expensive lol
Oh yeah where do I go to get the
for Cutter's Cry
@dense hound its called true griffin
Thank you very much Cerberus.
Consider things like the chocobo porters@true kestrel
@dire prawn uldah market area
Just keep playing MSQ and pretty soon you'll have more gil than you can spend on teleporting
i hve to keep walking
@jovial tide xiv style archive or ffxivcollection
Start teleporting 
omg i just did. i wasted 5k already. rip 30k

use the chocobo porters too, they're cheaper
Or you can be like me and not have a single chocobo porter route active 
What does it mean if it says “Legacy” next to a server name
!faq worldtype
Standard: This World has an average amount of players. Standard Worlds have no bonuses or long-term restrictions active.
Preferred: This World has a lower than average amount of players. Marked with a star, Preferred Worlds grant new characters a +100% experience boost for every class to level 70 for at least 90 days, 10 Silver Chocobo Feathers to spend on gear at the Calamity Salvager, and a one-time deal of 15 days of free subscription for hitting level 30.
Congested: This World has an overabundance of players. Congested Worlds are completely locked off from new characters and Home World transfers.
New: This World has been recently added to the game and has a low amount of players. Along with the incentives that Preferred Worlds have, New Worlds will also give players who hit level 30 one million Gil once per datacenter. Home World Transfers to New Worlds are free of charge.
Legacy: This World has existed since 1.0. Legacy Worlds have no bonus of their own and can be Standard/Preferred/Congested.
lol uhh
Means it's from the original 1.0 release in 2010
Oh that’s really cool
theres nothing special about legacy worlds
I like the fact that it stands out for being over a decade old though
what is the question?
@little swift its not a question. but its the only mount i have rn
i can unlock more from msq? or dungeon
you can unlock them from many places

you can get achievements and go to the achievement guy and buy mounts
wheres the achievemet guy at
old gridania, name is jonothas
okay, thx
closest aethernet shards are mih khetto's amphitheatre or the lancer's guild
does it take a while for online purchase to get to moogle delivery?
Title
Then below, sometimes also like <___>
The one below their name is a title
Title of their GC?
The one next to their name should be their FC
The letters between the <> is the FC tag
Just a title
The other is their title
Titles are earned from many different achievements
here's an example of all of it
name > FC tag > Title
sometimes title can be in front
how you can tell is based on whether the ellipsis is before or after the title
Black blood is from level 70 or 80 DRK quest
Yes lol
Ok (y)
most everything is so just want to make sure before I spend time riding over there.. D:
is the astrologian job gated behind msq?
Yes
Its in ishgard
more msq lmao
So
If you're in ishgard then you can get it
Oh?
fok yes
been wanting to get my hands on that class for a while now
looks like a fun healer

all the HW jobs are msq locked
if youre in ishgard then youre not in arr
you should have gotten the huge heavensward logo on your screen unless you skipped cutscenes
You would have gotten a giant HEAVENSWARD title screen when entering ishgard
Also quest accept music changed
Thats not ishgard
yeah its locked for you now
the very first quest of HW takes you into ishgard
which at that point you can unlock ast
Isn't the quest literally called 'Coming to Ishgard' or something like that
yes
Yee

generally speaking, do people pick saltwater for large aquariums?
hey can someone pelase explain skysteel tools and how to get them?
depends entirely on the fish you put into the aquarium
how do i tell if a fish is saltwater?
skysteel tools are the relic weapons for the gatherers and crafters this expansion
if im buying it off MB
can google it real quick
i have and still dont understand
to get the skysteel tool there is a quest by the skysteel manufactory
lemme finish explaining @frank wigeon
you have to upgrade them through a series of steps
for teh crafters you need to use the tool and craft a certain amount of each item per step and submit them to the npcs
there are a total of 4 steps so far
and for teh gatherers you would go and gather a certain amount of HQ items and a certain amount of a hidden item
and turn those in at each step
the crafter relics will require you to purchase items from either the marketboard
or use yellow scrips to fund them
each relic uses about 5k yellow scrips conservatively estimating it for now
we're expecting the final steps with this tuesday's 5.45 update
but for now the tools at max upgrade (skysung step) are about equal to a budget meh melded aesthete tool
pentamelded aesthete still surpasses it a bit
and we wont be able to see if pentemelded high tier aesthete might be better than the next skysteel tool?
until we see it, that sounds extremely grindy and cool:D thank you ill look up the material count and work on it
its expected that the final skysteel tool will be better than a pentamelded aestehte
but its unknown for now, as we have no data on it

Can I change the color of Au Ra horns and bones
Can someone link a video that explains E10S cleaves and shadows in depth? I think I’m dense it’s not going in! 😂
Only White and black as its based on the Sub race/clan of Au'ra
White are Raens, Black are Xaela
Oh awesome thank you so much
HOLY FRICK channey i need to buy an 80k primary weapon and start augmenting them for skysteel?!!!
yes. first is free like mentioned but the remaining full set will be 800k gil
which shadow? sword cleaves is just left or right of the shadow. for front/back implosion you have to check for if his head is up or tail is up.
if head is up then its front so you go to the shadow
if tail is up then its back implosion so you go away from the shadow
if its about clones
when he casts shadowkeeper the clone will tp behind you and then cast a cleave
you can move after the tether has shifted from its previous location
one technique that works fairly well is be at max melee and face away from the boss
then walk into the boss hitbox after so the cleaves shoot outwards
how do i augment my skysteel prototype DoH tool?
need a shit ton of oddly specific crafts, one of the materials you buy for scrips or the marketboard
!faq ishgard
hm
which step are you on right now, the normal Skysteel ilvl 440?

idk what to do with it
it's all the same way, just with different materials
you need like, 20 for the first step
yeah it's 440
then you exchange it with the vendor in the MCH guild for the first augment
where does it even specify that...
the NPCs tell you about it and it should tell you in the quest log
then you talk to quest NPC with the tool to advance the quest
so the NPC inside will show you all the amounts you need for the various steps
20 for first step, 30 for 2nd, then it changes to a collectable system, need iirc 18 for 3rd step and 21 for 4th step with full collectability
ok, i just didn't realize i needed more than 1 of the oddly specific item or that i had to trade it in to someone
did you read the quest log and the NPC textboxes
they go "oh yeah if you want extra tools or want to augment your tools just talk to our guy right over there"
what
neither?
for the time? neither.
!faq poetics
aetherochiemical research facility
i dont need a video guide lol okay
ill try that one
that one seems decent
GOOD TASTE NOW I SLEEP
Yeah that’s what I’m struggling with 😂 if I could see someone explain it in video as it happens It would be good 😄
Just rotate your camera so the shadow is pointing forward...the shadow is basically an arrow
The circle is there it will spawn with the tip where its facing
If there's no shadow, it's based on the boss's current position
O>Player means it spawn on the players Right facing East
Then just position according
It ends up with the arrows all going clockwise or counter clockwise
Ahh ok 😄 the static leader calls it out but I get on better when I know why I’m going where I’m going. Thank you guys. 😄
i turn my camera outwards and then match the shadow to the cleave direction

Hello guys i'm new to FFXIV, i was just curious what is the black mage? is that an arcanist?
Sorry if dumb question.
Thaumatugre
Thanks!
Do all the tanks use the same gear/accessory (minus the weapon)
yes except job specific gear
Hey all, thinking about coming back over since the new patch is about to drop. Been away since fall 2019 I think? How's the game doing these days?
I was DRK and WHM, with a little RDM here and there.
final raid tier of the expansion came out about 6 weeks ago
more story including the finale of SHB and the lead in to 6.0
theres a new eureka like area
What're the chances I can get a couple folks together for unsync Rathalos EX?
put up a PF
try pf its the same fight but with half the people around more or less
Ah, right.
What should I ask folks for? A scholar would be helpful if i remember right, shields aren't blocked but healing in phase 2 is?
just use your potions
you dont need a healer
if you do it unsync
just a tank and dps
cool.
can even burn down garula without jumping on to rath if people do enough daamge
how are tanks stacking up now? When I left PLD was the frontrunner, and DRK was worst.
theyre basically the same
Is SCH good now?
all classes are good

FINAL FANTASY XIV © 2010-2017 SQUARE ENIX CO.,...
thats not a dungeon and also wrong channel
Im not even there yet. Only at lvl 30
Furthermore, Larryzaur does meme video
then dont worry about it
so much stuff to do
I stopped at early stormblood but on the fence on playing again. Is there some difficult solo content at end game?
endgame content isnt solo
i mean you could solo like HW stuff but thats not necessarily difficult
Rip. Was hoping to be some sort of stuff for solo players to progress like that or something
this is an mmo
I think there are MMO that let you make ridiculous builds to solo some endgame bosses, but XIV is not that kind of MMO
what is that quest that unlocks the materia melders
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
👌
Is there a way to cycle through party members like enemies?
Which keybind is it
Yeah I can’t find it at all
Is it under Keybinds -> Targeting?
I'm not at my desk and can't check myself right now
So i recently joined the game. In all MMORPGs, if there's crafting, I'm doing it. So i want to level all my DoH and DoL while i do MSQ. i rushed msq to 20 to get chocobo, but now I'm thinking - get DoH to 20, check what the class quests need for them up to level 30,then when I do MSQ between 20 and 30, level and gather with DoL, rinse and repeat until maxed. Or is it better to first get to a high level and then just rush leveling my DoH/DoL class levels and quests?
after you beat heavensward you can unlock an area where you can power level all your crafters/gatherers in like a day
but i mean if you want to level your doh/dol while doing msq you can do that
Can I get the class quest items there too?
no
@rose holly my only options are target member 2 and up
I’m wanting to cycle through the party members like I can with enemy’s
Then I think I'll rather lvl them as I go along, especially if I'm gonna have to go back for all the class quests anyway
Then my advice is, keep your dow/m ahead, because your DoL would need to access new area to gather materials for your DoH
And what cerberus said
Noted, thanks!
How to survive enrage
Survive
you don't
enrages are supposed to kill everyone
you survive by killing the boss before it happens
doing SHB MSQ first time. Do any of the dungeons have a 'difficulty spike'
like in stormblood, bardam's was a notable increase in difficulty from the prior dungeon
not particularly, but the 2nd last dungeon of the main msq does have a particularly long pull that can be kinda spicy at min ilvl
thats how enrages work
no one survives
No
You cant unsync current expansion content
Need to wait until next expansion for that
Oh
if 6.0 is the last expansion will they raise cap from 80 to 100 ponder
Shld be soloable once its unsync

No
forever lv.90
/doubt
the first dungeon in ShB MSQ is also pretty iffy if tank pulls wall to wall and healer+dps can't keep up
What is after edenmorn?
Nothing
edenmorn is best for the expansion
Savage and augmented tome gear is the highest ilvl gear
For the rest of the expansion
No
So no more savage?
Only raids coming is final nier raid and ultimate
And the delirium regime 48man if you count that
There's always 3 tiers of raids
Deal with it
Lol
hey is bozja dungeon coming out tuesdaY?
I barely survivng 8man
Yes
sorry vinyl were you replying to me?
ahh

is there a guide to get rank up ? to prepare for bozja
5.51 probably
understood!
Clear 12s
So 10more month for ultimate
5.45 is tuesday o.o
Enne
ye?
Skip the ultimate
why
you should try doing an ultimate first
You are FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR from doing any ultimate
U never know
but me helping you wont be any better than you pugging it
1st try lucky clear on ultimate
there's still 6 other people
There's no such thing as luck in ultimate
Probably dumb question but is leg and foot graze worth it at all EVER
theyre very niche
Bind no
If the game is broken
Heavy ehhhh
Never
the game isnt broken
So basically not worth keeping on my bar
keep your stun and interrupt on your bar at least
