glacial isle
#

granted some of those are MSQ dungeons but the rest are optional

lament basalt
#

but im in a wierd spot where if i deviate from the MSQ to do those dungeons, im not making myself any stronger and adds to the time it takes to get to actual endgame(even though im not really in a rush)

polar hound
#

enjoy the game at your pace. only weird spot is the one you create for yourself

lament basalt
#

im still doing them though because i love dungeons but i noticed the gear drops arent improvements to some of my items

glacial isle
#

at lvl 50 the best gear is the Ironworks

#

you won't get better gear till you get to HW

lament basalt
#

yeah ive got ironworks chest and helm atm

#

anything else i have is from the quests so some 90s and a couple 110s

polar hound
#

!faq gearguide

zinc orbitBOT
terse grail
#

yea, because of how gearing works, once you hit each level cap (50, 60, 70) you can get the best gear available for that level instantly via poetics. so all the gear from the content is essentially useless

glacial isle
#

except for glamours

lament basalt
#

^^^^ too true, gotta look good to play good

#

i was getting glamour stones by the handful at the start so i thought i had the freedom to just transmog like hell

glacial isle
#

IIRc, some of my favorite gear is from the lvl 50 dungeons

lament basalt
#

now i dont have any and i cant buy them

polar hound
#

buy them with Grand company seals

glacial isle
#

are you using the glamour plates?

#

(you can also craft them fairly easily if you're low on GC seals)

austere agate
#

Hey

#

What's the mount that says something like grwawr in a soft tone?

marble drift
#

that is an...odd request

polar hound
#

do you have any pictures/screenshot

austere agate
#

I've been hearing that sound too many times when i'm afk but never had the opportunity to see chich mount is

marble drift
#

yeah we can ID mounts by sight not by sound

glacial isle
#

Behemoth maybe?

austere agate
#

Nope

#

It's not a monster grwawr

strange coral
#

How do you know it's a mount if you've never seen it?

austere agate
#

I hear the whistle sound when it shows up

polar hound
#

pld tank mount? coeurl? not sure tbh

marble drift
#

iirc the coeurl is the dark knight mount?

icy kiln
#

so when taking lead as tank in Castrum and Prae (and I guess other dungeons when I get there), what's the best way to draw aggro and keep moving? The shield toss (PLD right now) or something like provoke? Alot of the time I don't see them doing anything but running by them

polar hound
#

there's the beast tribe one i thought also

twilit arch
#

couerl is from ARR CE

#

dark knight is, model wise a couerl yes, but called a panther

marble drift
#

ah. right.

twilit arch
#

basically use your AoE ability as you run thru mobs

polar hound
#

^ facepull packs, use aoe once or twice, move on

icy kiln
#

facepull meaning?

polar hound
#

run right into them with your face

#

dont use shield lob

#

shield lob is great for single/double target but loses value when there's 3+, better to just sprint ahead of everyone and aoe once/twice, keep running

icy kiln
#

oh, so literally just run right into them? lol

polar hound
#

yep

manic rune
#

that way they’re all bunched together for you to aoe, yeah

#

if you shield lob on a big pack you end up drawing one further away from the group

icy kiln
#

is there any worry of getting too far ahead of the enemy or shoudl they chase wall to wall?

polar hound
#

if you shield lob and a healer regens you per se...other enemies that weren't lobbed but pulled will go right to the healer

#

they will always chase

manic rune
#

except copperbell mines

uneven herald
twilit arch
#

hyur midlander racial hair

uneven herald
#

You have to be a Hyur?

twilit arch
#

so if you want it, you have to be female hyur midlander

uneven herald
#

Aw 😦

austere agate
#

Oh already found it

#

I was searching for two

icy kiln
#

I always tend to fall back as the second tank when there's an 8 man party cause I'm worried I'll somehow lose aggro

polar hound
#

the only one you'll lose aggro to is the other tank with tank stance on

icy kiln
#

also cause I'm still learning these dungeons

austere agate
#

One of them was fat cat

lament basalt
#

how much skill speed should i have before moving onto some other stat as a tank?

polar hound
#

so if you see the other tank with stance on, just turn yours off until its necessary/if it's necessary

austere agate
#

But there is another one that has a similar sound

polar hound
#

joey arent you in ARR? you cant worry about that stuff til 80 lol

lament basalt
#

im always prioritizing skill speed when picking quest rewards so was just makin sure lol

polar hound
#

there's usually 1-3 BiS lists around a couple different SkS tiers, usually people pick whichever is most comfortable to their ping. Most SkS for tanks comes from their gear, supplemented by materia/food if necessary

manic rune
#

if you’re not at lvl 80 it doesn’t matter

polar hound
#

^

#

honestly prioritize crit>direct hit if anything lol get in that habit early

strange coral
#

Prioritize item level until 80

lament basalt
#

its still a constant competition for me though

#

against myself

manic rune
#

why?

#

there’s not much point trying to optimise at low level

#

quest rewards are strength/vitality iirc for tanks?

#

bc arr accessories are “all classes”

lament basalt
#

yeah some str vitality stuff have crit or some have tenacity, etc.

#

ive just been picking all tenacity

mystic axle
#

Does anybody know someone who has the game through square but doesnt have the DLC yet, yall can give them this code. RS4U 78AH 8M2C Z6Z9 XZKD. I accidentally bought a second copy and have no idea what to do with it and id rather give it for free than have it go to waste

manic rune
#

uhhh

crystal bluff
#

welp someone in the discord is gonna snipe that

mystic axle
#

thats the hope

warped nest
#

Yeah, it is getting sniped

mystic axle
#

if snipping means somebody just uses

#

it

lament basalt
#

lol your goal will be 150% successful

#

probably within seconds

#

may good karma swing back your way, friend!

glacial isle
#

good fortunes for the person who gets ShB for free

#

and curse my luck for it being specifically just ShB

#

then again, sub

austere agate
#

It was the fatter cat mount

#

Sorry if i made a stupid question

lament basalt
#

if i am doing the trial from downloading the game from steam, do i have to buy the complete version from steam also to keep my character?

glacial isle
#

yes

torn tangle
#

hey guys, so I'm a lvl 64 paladin, but im lvl 50 in the main story quest so Im still on the base game, what recommended gear should I go for atm? I have all the poetic gears that I got from mor Dhona

mystic axle
#

I got burned by that when i started. too

#

probobably do msq

torn tangle
#

but so many dungeons and raids to do 😮 lowkey ocd got me finishing it all up lol

mystic axle
#

doing the mainline quests will unlock the higher level dungeons

glacial isle
#

they already got the ironworks

whole wasp
#

ironworks is good enough until lvl 55/6-ish dungeon. if you are still in lvl 50 MSQ

twilit arch
#

if you're already in ironworks, there's no reason to bother with anything else since you dont need better gear

#

since you're still working on 50 msq

whole wasp
#

theres not much point upgrading to 60+ armor since there isnt content you need better gear for

leaden ginkgo
#

a Quetsion: how many fates i need to do to get the 18 Vexatious Memories of the Dying and the 18 Haunting Memories of the Dying.. i done around 50 and dropped only 1 UFF

torn tangle
#

ah okay that makes sense, thank you guys. I guess I'll just do the MSQ then 🙂

leaden ginkgo
#

feels like droprate -1000%

twilit arch
#

drop rate from the fates is pretty low

#

so doing the alliance raids are going to be faster

leaden ginkgo
#

how long a alliraid needs atm?

austere agate
#

Which alliance raids?

leaden ginkgo
#

is the PotD Artefact drop 100% after 10 levels?

crystal bluff
#

No

leaden ginkgo
#

the 60. and 70. alliance raids

austere agate
#

Which one is the fastest to complete?

leaden ginkgo
#

idk

strange coral
#

Void Ark is what I've heard for the HW raids. Dunno about the SB raids

crystal bluff
#

void ark for hw, rabanstre for sb

leaden ginkgo
#

Delubrum Reginae drops 100% the artifacts?

austere agate
#

Well... I should be getting relicts right now

keen dagger
#

heyq uestion kinda an emergency

crystal bluff
#

shoot

keen dagger
#

but a friend of mine tryna do something in the FC, but accidentally promoted someone else to leader whom been gone for more than 120days

#

is there a way we can undo this change?

crystal bluff
#

try sending a support ticket

keen dagger
#

where can support ticket be found

whole wasp
#

bottom right> System > Contact Us

keen dagger
#

hmm nothing there

whole wasp
#

sorry its System > Support Desk > Contact us

keen dagger
#

ooh okay

austere agate
#

Btw if i already finished the quest to get the evolved relict for one job, can i skip the previous relicts quests so i can get the evolved relict for another job?

keen dagger
#

we only see report harassment, cheating, bug, or suggestion

#

no actual in game ticket

whole wasp
#

use this instead

#

yea, the 3 categories dont really fit

#

if you press Ask Question in the bottom right

#

you can send a support ticket that doesnt fall under the 3 categories

#

It will take on average 3~6 days but thats pre-covid

#

so it might take awhile

gray oxide
#

I'm 80 and bought 510 gear, besides the armor i buy with Revelation tombs the 520 armor , what will be the next upgrades is that savage armor?

remote lintel
#

!faq gearguide

#

so what happens when I hit level 60 on the free trial? am I locked out or do I just stop receiving exp and such (haven't even gotten into HW content)

strange coral
#

You stop receiving xp on level 60 jobs

warped nest
#

You can keep doing everything within the scope of Heavensward

empty parrot
#

For PotD, can you go with a fixed party from floor 51-200? Or does it have to be from floor 1

warped nest
#

Fixed party starting from 51 is available

#

Don't need to start from 1

empty parrot
#

Alright thanks!

shadow yacht
#

Does anyone that plays on controller know how to remove whatever the function of the left analog button press is?

#

it's some sort of lock on target and anytime I accidentally hit it, I die x~x

fervent igloo
#

Soo what happens to be the fastest 60 and 70 raids for relic

twilit arch
#

void ark and rabanastre

fervent igloo
#

Ty ty

remote lintel
#

@shadow yacht under character config > target probably

#

untick the enable target lock on

shadow yacht
#

oh okie

#

also could you not @ me next time please

graceful vault
shadow yacht
#

also that wasn't it

#

basically what happens is if I'm targeting someone and hit L3(left analog) it pulls up sort of crosshairs?

#

and locks my camera to them

remote lintel
#

like this?

strange coral
#

System config > gamepad > button configuration

#

And then from there I think you can remap L3 to something else

#

(just guessing from a video I'm looking at as I don't play with a controller)

obsidian patio
#

Yep

#

I recommend having one of the stick buttons be a macro that uses sprint

#

To save an action slot for every job

icy kiln
#

R3 is my sprint, L3 I used a macro to draw my weapon without that awful auto target and lower my visor

shadow yacht
#

O

#

so that's what it is

icy kiln
#

...and then I learned L1+R1 also draws weapon

shadow yacht
#

I don't mind taking up a slot for sprint, cause at least I know what it is

#

where it is*

#

but if I could swap it out for like l1+r1 instead

#

cause there's no way I'm gonna accidentally press l1+r2

#

or I could just unassign it tbh, kinda wasteful but I'll figure out what to do with it later

versed nebula
strange coral
#

What exactly are you looking for?

remote lintel
#

the undiscovered area i assume

#

gamerescape just says "loch seld" which is where they are

versed nebula
#

that 'undiscovered' location. everywhere i look, im only seeing the locations of 3 of the spearfishing sites.

strange coral
#

It might be normal surface fishing at one of the ponds

versed nebula
#

you can spearfish on land?

strange coral
#

I mean regular old fishing

versed nebula
#

i have all the regular fishing locations, though, and theyre separated by the tab at the top.

strange coral
#

Lemme teleport there and take a look

#

Yea, I fished at one of the larger ponds and it shows up as just Loch Seld

twilit arch
#

last one you're missing is most likely Loch Seld Deep Lakebed

strange coral
#

Oh I'm dumb

versed nebula
#

I've seen the name of that but no exact coordinates

strange coral
#

I get what you mean now by the tabs

twilit arch
#

X:22.5 Y:24.8 is what teamcraft is giving me

icy kiln
#

Just updated to a full license. What are the major things I can do now that I couldn't do before?

twilit arch
#

join a free company, hire retainers, sell on the marketboard

icy kiln
#

free companies being player groups?

strange coral
#

Player-run guilds, yes

covert sparrow
#

is dragoon any good?

strange coral
#

But also create parties, use party finder

stuck kayak
#

Ok, so I just unlocked Castrum and want to do the rest of the relic steps, how do I look for a Castrum group?

remote lintel
#

@covert sparrow yes

#

all classes are good

warped nest
covert sparrow
#

alright, ty

warped nest
#

The most important thing is finding what you like

fair blaze
#

Hey does anyone know exactly how tall the ancient ones are?

remote lintel
#

@stuck kayak #resources has discordds that organize castrum runs

versed nebula
#

So i went to those coordinates, but every spawn there is from the locations i already have...

daring bone
#

if i decide to switch jobs part way through the msq how hard is it to catch that job up to the right level?

remote lintel
#

depends what job you switched to and when

#

you can switch to red mage/samurai at the start of HW or dancer/gunbreaker at the start of SB and be fine

#

because those jobs start at 50 and 60

daring bone
#

sorry i went it as in from 1 base class to another so like if my current class is lvl 30 and i switch to somethign else that starts at 1

rough lake
#

Is it worth getting crafted gear now or waiting for 5.5? (Returning to game after taking break at 5.2)

daring bone
#

just random numbners but you get what i mean

remote lintel
#

getting to lvl 30 isnt hard

#

probably takes like 1-2 hours max

#

if you mean from 1 to 80 obv it will be harder

daring bone
#

ya i get that. is the best way to catch up just doing the hunts i think they are called? or go back to older zones and try to find quests for the appropriate level?

remote lintel
#

for below 15 its hunt logs, challenge log and fates, for 15+ its roulettes, beast tribes, spamming highest lvl dungeon, etc

hey are scholars considered barrier healers or healers?

remote lintel
#

like anything 480+ really

open kernel
#

thanks

remote lintel
#

scholars are healers with shields

frank wigeon
#

ahh how about scholars and whm? sorry

remote lintel
#

scholars lean more towards shielding and whm have regens

frank wigeon
#

ahh thank you!

leaden ginkgo
#

what is the easiest melee dps job for new players to play?

daring bone
#

Also there is no way for me to see how a class plays at higher levels without leveling them myself right? like how WoW has class trials. Sometimes watching vids of the class doesnt really give you the full feeling of the class without playing it first hand

remote lintel
#

monk or dragoon probably

#

@daring bone not really no

daring bone
#

ya thats what i thought. TY for all the info

open kernel
#

how long would it take to grind tomestones for the crystarium set? or is there another 480+ set that's faster / cheaper?

remote lintel
#

not super long if you do the roulettes/hunt trains

#

you can just buy neo ish gear if its cheap

#

or run puppet bunker

open kernel
#

can you link neo?

#

i also saw the exarchic set

warped nest
#

Don't worry too much about getting the full set

#

You want just enough as stepping stone to do E9N-E12N

theyre doing treasure maps

#

Ohh, so i have to actually do something for it. alright

Are the hotbars supposed to get messed up when you switch jobs? I switched from PLD and knew I'd have to rearrange my hotbars for GNB, but when I switched back to PLD to see my layout, they were all fucked up

remote lintel
#

did you equip the job stone

icy kiln
#

Oh, I didn't. That effects it?

#

oh wow, yeah, I guess it does

#

If you didn't equip the stone, then you switched to GLD, not PLD

rotund spoke
#

Hey soo I just returned after a couple months. Did something change or why am I missing so many attacks on dummy?

remote lintel
#

what level is the dummy and what level are you

twilit arch
#

are you attacking a dummy that is higher than your level?

rotund spoke
#

Yes

#

lol I'm stupid

twilit arch
#

that would be why

rotund spoke
#

Just about to start Shadowbringers hoping I can finish it before new xpack

remote lintel
#

you definitely will

rotund spoke
#

Hope so. I don't want this to sound wrong since I love the game but so far the story drags sooo slowly xD

remote lintel
#

its only slow in ARR

#

shadowbringers wasnt slow at all

#

I'm somewhere by the end of stormblood and I definitely enjoyed Heavensward more.

remote lintel

most people did

remote lintel
#

not vitality

#

and theres no int materia

steep pelican
#

@remote lintel well what would be 4th on the list?

twilit arch
#

Crit > DH ≥ Det is the meld priority

#

for rdm

steep pelican
#

@twilit arch wait why Determination? I thought they don't scale off of that?

twilit arch
#

everyone scales with det

gloomy ice
#

Everything uses Det in some capacity.

twilit arch
#

its a straight dmg/healing boost

remote lintel
#

det affects both physical and magical

steep pelican
#

Oooh

#

I was not aware of that

potent shale
#

so how do you get the focus target bar?

graceful vault
twilit arch
#

shift+f is default keybind to set target

remote lintel
#

or right click > focus target

cloud palm
#

is dancer considered good? like I just picked up the class and the DPS seems kinda on the low side. am i crazy?

remote lintel
#

yes

#

all classes are good

#

also make sure youre partnering someone

sick salmon
cloud palm
#

well i know that but am I crazy in regards to the lower damage. feels just, random?

#

like the constant 50/50s seems rough

remote lintel
#

dancer's dps mainly comes from partnering

#

you buff your partner

cloud palm
#

I see that the partner gets a 5% dmg buff which is always nice

remote lintel
#

and you buff the entire party with your dances iirc

cloud palm
#

do you? as far as i know the only party wide buff is Shield Samba which is just a 10% dmg reduction

remote lintel
#

!action technical finish

cloud palm
#

there it is, just read that one

remote lintel
#

"party members"

cloud palm
#

so it seems like Technical Finish is always the best option. the game makes it seem like you can mess up your steps but from what i can tell its easy to get all the steps in

remote lintel
#

its just dance dance revolution

#

and you use both dances

cloud palm
#

okay i see now. interesting class.

little swift
#

there's also

#

!action devilment

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Devilment** : lvl 62 DNC (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Duration: 20s
Additional Effect: Party member designated as your Dance Partner will also receive the effect of Devilment

little swift
#

which is significant inside tech windows

cloud palm
#

Honestly the rotations seem pretty simple. Class is weird for sure.

#

But sometimes you just gotta dance

west spruce
#

can I remove my chocobo from stable if I'm waiting for its color to change?

remote lintel
#

the rotation is just "press glowy button"

#

no dokutah

west spruce
#

ok ty

dire prawn
#

What's the difference between a crit hit and a direct hit

#

And can attacks both crit and get a direct hit at the same time

left moth
#

crit is a variable increase to attack or healing (depending on crit stat/level). direct hit is a flat 20% increase for damage only. yes you can have both applied to attacks (but not healing actions which are crit only)

#

(the fly over text will have 2 exclaim marks for a direct crit)

glad quail
#

Hi guys, new here. I'm sure you get this question a lot, but how much effort does it take get through the early game? Gonna play the free trial soon.

left moth
#

that and dealing with the lack of skills in arr classes/jobs (especially before can aoe things)

glad quail
#

Yeah I heard arr can be very slow

dire prawn
#

ARR is definitely the slowest MSQ line from what everyone says

#

Because there's also a shit-ton of MSQ between the last ARR quest and the first HW quest

remote lintel
#

i will say that ARR sets up like literally everything that happens later on

glad quail
#

That's good to hear

dire prawn
#

Plus for most of the ARR MSQ unless you're on a preferred server you're going to hideously outlevel it up until you hit the Lv 40+ portion and start getting closer to the end

#

If you're on a preferred server MSQ will never catch up to you

glad quail
#

Oh ok

dire prawn
#

For me as an example, using no food items for exp bonuses and only using the Brand-new Ring from 15 to 30 after I did my Hall of the Novice quests, the MSQ didn't catch me in levels until I got to 48

remote lintel
#

the exp boost is mostly for leveling multiple classes

dire prawn
#

I don't have multiple classes >_>

glad quail
#

i bet

remote lintel
#

go pick them up

#

if you want to

dire prawn
#

When I finish ARR and have to endure post-ARR I'll start leveling another class

Another thing I was curious about was the payment options for the game. If I'm correct, I need to pay monthly as well as pay $40+ for each expansion?

tawny quest
#

Nope just buy ShB and pay monthly

left moth
#

current expansion always includes prior expansions

#

well singular (stormblood) since heavensward is in starter/trial

tawny quest
#

Yeah

calm sky
#

guys, i want to finish spiritbonding my wyrm's gear iLvl90. any dungeon you can recommend for me to go? i got 10% left to sb before i want to equip ironworks gear.

remote lintel
#

the entire game is 60$ which gives you 30 free days, then you need to sub

glad quail
#

ah, that's good to hear

hushed nymph
#

There's also 60 Day Time Cards which (from my experience) go on sale often enough for under $30

left moth
#

(it's on sale right now in se store if i remember tweet right for complete edition)

remote lintel
#

yes its on sale

calm sky
remote lintel

!faq subprice

zinc orbitBOT
#
Subscription Prices
remote lintel
#

the sub prices if you were wondering

left moth
#

the arr part (complete or starter) is what gives 30 days free. expansion doesn't give free play time

dire prawn
#

Wait

glad quail
#

right

tawny quest
#

So if you’re on PC you can just buy the game while it’s on sale and wait to use the code until you’re done with the FT

dire prawn
#

Is complete edition on slae right now?

calm sky
dire prawn
#

sale*

#

For how long uwu

calm sky
#

im getting complete edition before sale ends on 15th

tawny quest
#

But if you’re playing on PS editions I wouldn’t purchase it until you’re done with the FT because it activates it immediately

dire prawn
#

Where's it on sale

calm sky
#

so prolly im buying it around 12-14th feb

dire prawn
#

SE store?

remote lintel
#

yes

calm sky
#

yes

dire prawn

Take part in an epic and ever-changing FINAL FANTASY as you adventure and explore with friends from around the world.The complete edition is perfect for newcomers as it includes the award-winning FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn and the Heavensward, Stormblood and Shadowbringers expansion packs – all in one complete package!

calm sky
#

gonna milk my freetrial as much as i can

dire prawn
#

Is it also on sale on PS4 thonkblocky

calm sky
#

apparently yes

hushed nymph
#

Yup. ShB is $20 too

dire prawn
#

damn

calm sky
#

until 18 i think

static violet
#

Hello.

dire prawn
#

So I can buy both the PS4 edition and PC edition for the same price as picking up the complete edition off-sale on one platform

static violet
#

Does the buff for percentages scale? for example if it says Max 12. does that mean percent or stacks 12 times

dry flame
#

whats more faster for timeworn relics, queen or spamming 51-60 potd?

obsidian patio
remote lintel
#

@dire prawn if the complete edition is 30$ on ps4 then yes

remote lintel
#

no

calm sky
#

they dont share platform

remote lintel
#

you can have a ps4 license and pc license

left moth
calm sky
dire prawn
#

Yeah but I can still buy both and then play on either one

tawny quest
#

Yeah

calm sky
#

yeahh but the account will be separate and not data is not shared if that wht you mean.

remote lintel
#

no it is shared

static violet
calm sky
#

licsenses dont share on platform?

remote lintel
#

yes they do

#

the only platform that requires separate accounts is steam and windows

#

because steam has a different license

calm sky
#

wht i mean is. if he buy ps4 version he cant play on pc with that license

tawny quest
#

He can though

calm sky
#

ps4 account can play on pc as well?

tawny quest
#

Yes

remote lintel
#

he will be able to log onto his character from ps4 or pc

calm sky
#

wow never thought on that

tawny quest
#

I did exactly that, going from ps4 to PC

remote lintel
#

it says so on mog station

calm sky
#

so only pc and steam that separates

remote lintel
#

yes

calm sky
#

its funny tho and weird tbh

remote lintel
#

blame steam

calm sky
#

but convenient for ps4 user

#

lmao right i was gonna go steam then my friends all tell me to stay back for steam ver

stray moss
#

Question does one know how to obtain the hair called Early to Rise? I’m pretty sure I have to be level 80 but I’m not sure.

remote lintel
#

it drops from the new bozja dungeon

#

a very rare drop

#

or buy it on the mb for like 20 million gil

stray moss
#

Yeah I seen that so expensive x.x

dry flame
#

whats more faster for timeworn relics, queen or spamming 51-60 potd? ANSWER OR ILL PING EVERONE ronkablush

left moth
#

potd is probably less soul damaging since it's well known content (to burn through with randoms)

dry flame
#

i asked whether its faster

keen gate
#

I play on ps5 and have this weird thing on the middle top right of my screen is there a way to get rid of it?

forest sage
#

sounds like your job gauge, can't remove it, can move/resize it/use a simplified version

keen gate
#

How do I do that?

forest sage
#

it's not useful at low lvl but at some point depending on class it'll display useful stuf

#

use the HUD layout option

left moth
#

hud setup, select element and drag it around (preferably also changing to simple mode)

clever crag
#

for the last step of relic.. do you need to have the quest to get timeworm artifact for the 2nd++ relic or having 1 relic completed is enough?

left moth
#

supposedly after first 515 relic dont have to do second step again (so just labby and potd spam)

clever crag
#

ye but do you need the quest to get he item?

#

for the last step for 2nd relic

left moth
#

(I dont understand the question)

#

the item like drops for alliance instances or item like the upgraded relic?

keen gate
#

How do I leave my starting area I am level 14 almost 15 and can’t get out of thanalan

clever crag
#

do you need to accept the quest to get the item drop from the 24man raids? the last step

left moth
obsidian patio
#

Yes you need the quest active to get the drops

clever crag
#

back to syrcus, painn thank you

lament basalt
#

after ive unlocked all the dungeons on hard difficulty, can i abandon the quest?

#

is the aquapolis a thing in 2021

#

theres some gear i want from it but ive never touched it, wondering if i should just spring 80k for the item on the marketplace and move on

remote lintel
#

i dont think people really do HW maps anymore

open ember
#

Better off doing SB & SHB maps

#

Some SB map drops are still pricy

neon aspen
open ember
#

But SHB is better bang for your buck

neon aspen
#

should i just pay ~80k for this

#

and move on with my life

#

or can i quickly get this item

open ember
#

They're cheap

#

80k can be made very easily

neon aspen
#

yea, im thinking just bite the bullet

#

i only have 1.5mil but whatever

open ember
#

You'll make it back by a few roulettes

neon aspen
#

yea

leaden ginkgo
#

I know theres a partition/wall you can dye a certain shade of red to match the Eulmoran Inner Walls

Anyone here got any ideas?

magic light
#

how does fragment farming work in bozja? more specifically, what essence is used?

obsidian patio
#

Tanks use Bloodsucker for the HP restoration so the healers can focus more on damage

#

Everyone else uses damage-based essences, so Skirmisher for DPS and Aetherweaver for healers

#

If you’re death farming the star-ranked monsters then you use the essence that boosts Death’s success rate

#

!action lost death

zinc orbitBOT

**Lost Death** : lvl 0 PLD MNK WAR DRG BRD WHM BLM SMN SCH NIN MCH DRK AST SAM RDM GNB DNC (60.0 second cooldown)(5.0 second base cast time)

KOs target. The less the target's HP, the greater the chance of success.
Spirit of the Ordained Effect: Chance of success is increased
This action does not share a recast timer with any other actions. Furthermore, the recast timer cannot be affected by other actions.

obsidian patio
#

Which is Ordained

worthy basin
#

if i purchase the ps4 license directly in the sqex website, does it give me a code?

obsidian patio
#

You can only get digital PS4 from the PlayStation Store IIRC

#

the one on the SE store look to be physical purchases, meaning you’ll need to wait for it to be delivered

worthy basin
#

oooooooooooh thanks

tawny quest
# worthy basin oooooooooooh thanks

Please keep in mind though that if you purchase it from the PS store the game will activate it immediately, taking you off the FT and making you a sub

solid heron
#

POTD or dungeons at level 30?

worthy basin
#

if you're a tank or healer go for the highest level dungeon that you can enter

solid heron
#

so POTD for DPS?

marble drift
#

pretty much

glad quail
#

Before I buy the game; does it matter if I get it on steam or on it's own launcher?

arctic crescent
#

Hi guys, im currently level 60 (doing post HW quest) and almost maxed out on my tomes of peotics. I was planning on saving em for lvl 70 armor when i get there.

May I know what is recommended I spend em on before i hit the limit?

I was a lvl 60 bard but decided to swap to a dancer which came with some lvl 60 armor.

worthy basin
tawny quest
arctic crescent
#

Nope, i am using the free lvl 60 armor that they gave you when you became a dancer.

Is it recommended to get the Shire gear for lvl 60 now then farm up peotics later and get the lvl 70 gear?

glad quail
#

I see

tawny quest
#

So if the game goes on sale on the SE store and you buy it, it's worthless to you since it's not the Steam version

hollow glacier
#

Did they revert the free trial changes back to 35? I am new and I read that it was expanded to include the base game and first expansion I think, but the free trial confirmation email (2 days old) says otherwise

arctic crescent
# glad quail I see

Im not sure about steam but i just bought the game from the SE store ytd and it was 50% off

arctic crescent
tawny quest
#

Also the game seems to go on sale less on Steam than the SE store

obsidian patio
worthy basin
#

the only thing that i can think about steam is you can pay your sub using your steam wallet

A question about Ishgard Restoration, I'm currently leveling my crafting and gathering skills and I can't seem to find craftable ones for Goldsmithing, Blacksmith, Armory. Leatherworker and Culinarian? Are they not possible to level in this way?

obsidian patio
#

All classes can use the restoration.

worthy basin
#

scroll down and find the "ishgard restoration" tab

#

click on that

scarlet kindle
#

Yeah they're not there. Or wait

#

Do they need to be level 20? These ones are 18-19 for me still

obsidian patio
#

The exact recipes currently being used are the grade 4 recipes.

scarlet kindle

Steam
WutFace

obsidian patio
#

IIRC yes

left moth
#

it's based off na/eu/jp service account pricing i want to say (so forex related)

raven berry
little swift
#

Yes mostly

hollow glacier
#

so no way around paying the full $15? weak dollar in my country so I was hoping it'd be regionally priced

little swift
#

What other help would you want from this server @raven berry

#

Subscription would have relative currency conversion pricing

raven berry
#

I need someone fluent in japanese to help me with translating some "lore" in FF8

#

But I won't bother you then ^^

shy lark
#

Housing question, can you prevent FC members from changing or removing wall designs, fishes in aquariums, paintings, etc. in an FC house?

hollow glacier
little swift
#

The price is pretty much set to that regions pricing but you'd pay a currency converted equivalent

raven berry
#

I'll try in off-topic or video-games

little swift
#

@shy lark you can set decorations permissions in the fc menus

hollow glacier
#

yeah so the pricing doesn't change is what I am trying to understand, it's always a fixed $15 or an equivalent to $15 in other currencies

obsidian patio
#

It can sometimes be cheaper relatively for some countries

#

I remember people using Brazil and maybe Russia a long time ago for cheaper subscription

opaque pewter
#

How do I get to Eureka again?

shy lark
#

and I'm not sure there's a way to disable that

hollow glacier
#

they made Brazil and Russia pay as much as everyone else because people abused the system

worthy basin
hollow glacier
#

but I am not from either countries

opaque pewter
#

I already did it, I just forgot how to enter the instance.

hollow glacier
#

so I am not sure if I get regional pricing or if I pay the full amount

worthy basin
#

don't know where though

opaque pewter
#

kk ty

obsidian patio
#

Your regional pricing will likely convert into the equivalent of 15 dollars

little swift
#

Afaik those still count as furnishings and you can limit permissions that say they can alter it

hollow glacier
#

damn, that's sad

#

would have been so convenient if they'd price it differently for countries with a very weak dollar

#

subs don't go below $12 (180 days), right?

So, for the Anima weapons line, do I have to do all 4 in order? Or can I just skip to the iL210?

obsidian patio

You need to complete each step in order for every weapon

runic prawn
#

o u guys know if 3.0 and newer content give lights for 2.0 relic?

obsidian patio
#

Only ARR content (1-50) gives light for the Zodiac relic.

runic prawn
#

aw. syrscus spam it is i guess

obsidian patio
#

Actually Tam-Tara normal is your best method for soloing

#

Unless you’re also doing the resistance relic at the same time

runic prawn
#

ye resistace too

obsidian patio
#

👌

#

Definitely Syrcus then

runic prawn
#

so i can do syrcus with my strong weapon then i just equip the novus before exiting right?

nova umbra
left moth
#

I dont recall the overstuffed carbuncle being dyable

obsidian patio

Yep you can use stronger weapons until the final boss

runic prawn
#

i have to kill xande with novus to get light?

left moth
#

yeah (I'm more used to anima light grind where basically need it on the whole instance because alex 9 savage isn't exactly the type of grind to weapon swap)

#

since boss kill is when game considers the instance complete

ah oko ok ty

so ive heard of the expansions

do those cost extra as well

#

or are those free updates

solid heron
#

Entry allows you to have one character on a server (Which is basically everything you need) + you need to buy the expansion

warm snow
#

They are separate purchases

#

The free trial/starting out now gives you up the the first expansion

#

And buying other current expansions is a single grouped purchase

obsidian patio
#

Trial/Starter Edition = Base game (A Realm Reborn) + First Expansion (Heavensward)
Shadowbringers = second expansion (Stormblood) + third expansion (Shadowbringers)
Complete Edition = all of the above

abstract sundial

ohhh okay im assuming the expansions are like more maps/items all that stuff

Level cap increases, new jobs, continuing the main stpry

do you have to pay monthly for the expansions

pale saffron

hi, does anyone know how do i get the BLU revive spell or where does it come from?

would you guys consider this game to still be fun even if you dont have friends that play

i dont know anyone irl thats played this lmao

I've made plenty of friends through play

I’m not an extremely social person and I enjoy it a good amount.

warm snow

And it was great fun solo up until I decided to actually purchase it

abstract sundial
#

ah wow looks like this game has a huge community then lol

#

i remember hearing when ff14 had a lot of problems now it looks like its really good

warm snow
#

That's mostly the 1.0

#

The original release was so bad both irl and in game it was burned to ashes and rebuilt from scratch

abstract sundial
#

LOL damn

warm snow
#

While the initial story for the base game is a lot of world building the first expansion is still one of the best ff stories I've played

abstract sundial
#

ive seen some ppl say they miss certain aspects of 1.0

#

but thats like a really small complaint ive seen

runic prawn
#

for novus, i can just dump all cheap materia right?

warm snow
#

Unless you're going for multiple relics

abstract sundial
#

well thanks guys for the help i think i might give this game a shot

#

hopefully i dont get addicted lmfao

#

idk if MMORPGS are addicting to play this would be my first one lol

runic prawn
#

like 75 rank 1 materia is ok or does it require rank 234 too?

obsidian patio
#

You have to use higher grades due to how it works

obsidian wren
#

You can only put a certain amount of tier 1 materias of the same type on it

obsidian patio

I think the highest you need is a couple grade 3 if you do 5 different stats

It’s really easy to swap specialists, it only needs like 480 Yellow Crafter Scrips and you can swap 3 times a week

Would anyone on Aether be able to help me out? I want to trade a hairstyle to an alt of mine so I just need someone to give it to them

I wish aha, and I mean its just a hairstyle - if someone wanted it that badly they could easily farm for it themselves lol

@worthy basin I did, is there something else I need to do?

And there should be something for guest access which you can enable/disable.

grand company 😮

worthy basin

and yeah, you need to buy that using company seals

heady cobalt

I have no idea what that is

worthy basin
heady cobalt
#

What's a grand company, I' m sorry for being dumb

#

I'm just following the main quest blindly and have little knowledge

worthy basin
#

maelstorm is on the aftcastle (limsa)
twin adder is near the aetheryte (gridania)
immortal flames is near the aetheryte (uldah)

warm snow
#

You need to be at least at the lv20 msq

#

So that might be the issue

dire prawn
#

Grand Companies, in-game are the three armies of the main city-states

worthy basin
#

you might be level 20 but not level 20 in msq

heady cobalt
#

msq

#

?

dire prawn
#

You can join one two or three MSQs after the Lv 20 The Bowl of Embers MSQ

heady cobalt
#

ok

#

Main scenario quests

#

OK, so probably Immortal flames then, I'll check it out, thanks!

Hey a few questions from a returning player:

  1. Are there mouseover macros in this game?

  2. I am level 58 and my current MSQ is the Lv. 56 Ill-weather Friends - I literally cannot remember the last time I played and don't know what's going on in the plot, what's the best means of catching myself up? Any videos people can recommend maybe?

marble drift
#
  1. Pretty sure there are? Don't ask me for specifics. I'm shaky on their mere existance
#
  1. For videos. Ethys Asher on youtube does dedicated lore round-ups
#

but if you wanna go in yourself. There is a mode called New Game+

#

basically replaying the MSQ.

ripe folio
#

Mouseover macros as in, when I use a healing spell, if my mouse cursor is over an allied unit or their unitframe, it casts on them

marble drift
#

yeah I know what you meant

ripe folio
#

ah

#

ill check out ethys asher thank you very much!

gritty oracle

#

Hey when doing the SHB relic quests on my another job, do I have to repeat everything? MonkaLaugh

ripe folio
marble drift
#

correct they work like that

#

but.

#

this game is not WoW

ripe folio
#

i know it isnt wow, that's a little patronising lol

marble drift
#

the global cooldown is literallt two and a half times longer remember

#

and macros let you do less overall

ripe folio
#

how would a mouseover macro cause you to do less than manual targeting

gritty oracle
ripe folio
#

i think i'll have to test it and feel for myself what you mean

rigid narwhal
#

you can do it legitimately with plugins

ripe folio
#

plugins?

rigid narwhal
#

ye

ripe folio
#

thought ffxiv had no addon type functionality

rigid narwhal
#

hushhush

marble drift
#

yeah by legitmately

#

enne means the reverse

scarlet kindle
#

Anyone in Elemental who can help me with the Hydra trial for ARR relic? It's hard to solo on a WHM due to Infirmity and Fear Itself 😦

marble drift
#

as all those mods are officially not supported by SE

ripe folio
#

well feel free to dm me about them lel

rigid narwhal
#

it has awful queue times

scarlet kindle
#

Yeah ^

gritty oracle
#

My point is, macros can be unreliable as hell

marble drift
#

well you're doing content over a decade old

#

for some glam

scarlet kindle
#

I was able to solo the Chimera but this one is too annoying 😦

marble drift
#

it aint free

scarlet kindle
#

The 15 sec fear means I'm basically helpless lol

rigid narwhal
#

but nah i would but i havent done arr relics, just put up a pf

#

people will join

scarlet kindle
#

Sadly I'm still on trial so I can't create a PF

twilit vale
#

any reason to keep completed Lux weapons? trying to free up space, Anemos weapon is upgraded from antiquated which is obtainable from salvager. Replicas obtainable from vendor

marble drift
#

the same reason you got the Lux weapon in the first place?

#

glam?

#

iirc you can't put Lux weaponry in your dresser

twilit vale
#

well then i have the replicas in the glam dresser

#

and get them from vendor if somehow lost them

gritty oracle
twilit vale
#

yeah i'm out of space lol, only 2 retainers

#

After my daily Rouls, what's the best way to level jobs 70-80? Do I just spam the highest level dungeon I can do?

warped nest
#

If you are tanks and healers, yeah

#

Take note that if your job is exactly level 70, you want to go for the level 69 dungeon

#

(level 70 dungeons were the endgame dungeons so they were never tuned for giving good exp)

#

If you are Dps, dungeon is good if your queue time is around 10 minutes or less. Otherwise, go for Trust or Bozja

sharp plover
#

Makes sense 😄 Thank you

#

Hello all! is there a devised strat for the relic grind?

lost grove
#

If I buy 6.0 when it realese do I get a free 30 day sub?

faint flare
#

No

#

Expansions never give game time

lost grove
#

Ah ok

twilit patrol
#

how do i unlock duty finder? i am level 24

green grail
#

unlock sastasha through level 15 msq

forest lark
#

How do some ppl add separate hotbars somewhere at the top just for the sake of keeping eye when cd is off

#

Its hard having to look down at hotbat every time

twilit patrol
#

msq u mean main story right?

green grail
#

yes

twilit patrol
#

ty

left moth
#

(main scenario quest msq )

green grail
lost grove
#

So if I buy complete again will it give the 30 free days?

forest lark
#

No?

green grail
#

it's base game that gives the 30 days, so if you already have a non-trial account then buying base game again wont do anything

#

no

twilit patrol
#

there are macros in the game?

#

i mean u can press 1 button and multiple skills will be cast in sequence ?

faint flare
#

There is but macros are extremely terrible for combat

#

Its a major dps lost for majority of macros

#

Due to lack of skill que and waits only being whole numbers

twilit patrol
#

hmmm , i thought it would be useful on summoner, but i guess it would turn out really terrible right?

faint flare
#

Macros are never the optimal choice

#

!faq macrogcd

#
Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.

#

i just joined twin adder and it sasy "no more deliveries today" um what

#

i wanna get some credits to get my chocobo but there are no missions to accept

faint flare
#

Just do the next story quest

#

It gives you enough

frank wigeon
#

#

celest inlet
#

or the leveling daily roulette, depends on ur level it might give u enough to buy the insurance

Hi guys,
I am trying to return to FFXIV but I am getting this message...

Please Haaaalp!

green grail
#

log into mogstation and buy a subscription like it says

limber mica
#

@green grail I honestly wouldn't come on here to waste people times without having tried that much

#

I have had money come out of my bank account. it should be active

halcyon arch
#

im a lv 37 archer who just unlocked job quests, should i wait till lv 40 to get the last archer skill? is that skill unavailable to bards?

dire prawn
#

Do your BRD job quest the moment you unlock it

green grail
#

no, unlock bard asap, it's just a name change and you get extra skills, the archer ones stay

green grail
forest lark
#

For new relic weapon do i have to do 1st step only once?

limber mica
#

@green grail I could SS my mog station if that helps ?

forest lark
#

Can I make unused hotbar that is merely for watching out for cds unclickable?

#

When I want to turn I always press accidebtly and drag skills

twilit patrol
#

how much the new dlc will cost? 60$?

green grail
#

40$ most likely

limber mica
#

The mog station is not very easy to navigate, I paid some money but I am not totally sure whats going on.

twilit patrol
#

i haven't bought the game yet, should i wait for full package or just get it straight away?

limber mica
#

you just starting out @twilit patrol ?

twilit patrol
#

yeah, i am on free right now

#

twilit patrol
#
