Good stuff

[scarlet kindle]

Okay I'll try this one. And thanks for the link and tips 😄

[gritty oracle]

At any rate, get the level cap first, worry about spells later. Sardive will serve you until you hit 80, then buy scaevan/mirage gear, get diamondback at the very least and join every spell pf you can find

my personal must-have list is the aforementioned primal spells, Song of Torment, Diamondback, and Sonic Boom

[marble drift]

imo grab basic instinct and something to spam (Alpine Draft maybe) and then head on in to all the dungeons

[gritty oracle]

can you really solo synced dungeons with BI?

[marble drift]

well maybe not synched

but eh

[gritty oracle]

unsync = bad

[marble drift]

nah its not that bad

sure it means you're not 100% on the spell

[gritty oracle]

Sync is still a 100% srop rate

[marble drift]

right so run it a few times

no big

[gritty oracle]

Or open a PF, run it once and be done with it

[gritty oracle]

Oh, and make sure not to party up. You get zero XP then because of the level difference between you two.

[scarlet kindle]

I see, thanks for the heads up. Now to find someone willing to help

[gritty oracle]

If you've got enough time, arrange a mutual boost with someone. They boost you, then you boost them

[obsidian patio]

Basic Instinct + Mighty Guard + Healing Mimic + Mog Cure make soloing on level stuff very doable

[lavish vortex]

Can you buy Demi ozma mount from the MB?

[obsidian patio]

No.

[dire prawn]

I have Hissatsu: Kaiten now

[marble drift]

when you start out. getting enough kenki to use it is a little tough

but once you get Kenki Mastery it'll be super easy

[signal aspen]

does being a blue mage yield any unlocks or gil?

[obsidian patio]

Only BLU-related stuff, really.

[signal aspen]

any glamours that carry over?

[obsidian patio]

The Masked Carnivale is a good one-time and weekly source of poetics and allied seals

Nope

They do have a few minions

Brute Justice from Alexander

[marble drift]

Trumpet section not included.

[gritty fjord]

I have the game on Pc, but I'm thinking about buying it on ps5. 1. Will I need to pay for a seperate sub 2. Will it have my characters cross platform?

[marble drift]

No seperate sub but you will need to buy the game for the platform

[gritty oracle]

It unlocks the carnivale and blu logs, which shower you with allied seals if you're into that. You also get some gil from carnivale and logs I guess, but like, a couple thousands at most.

[marble drift]

and characters cross over yes

[gritty fjord]

Great, tysm! Tried googling but couldn't find a definite answer lmao

[oblique pecan]

Hi im trying to start 5.3 but i need to finish the crystal tower questline. when i go to find the outlandish man he isnt in mor dhona has anyone else had this issue?

[icy finch]

the FF14 community is so nice. just played with "kiri belle" and was super helpful and nice 🙂

[candid girder]

What are the 2 least popular ranged dps?

[marble drift]

out of the 3 ranged dps?

or are you including magical in that?

[candid girder]

nvm i found a graphic, idk how true it is, but, here it is

[obsidian patio]

Very inaccurate

[candid girder]

unlucky

are any of the census websites accurate?

[marble drift]

Why are you asking though?

sheer curiosity? or something else?

[obsidian patio]

None of them really work good since they can only rely on always-public info like minions/mounts from achievements

And class levels

[candid girder]

curiosity mainly, and im kind of a hipster 😛

[raven sage]

Are you sure you didn't start the questline at some point already?

[open kernel]

is there a map with an MB and delivery moogle? perhaps even near one another?

[marble drift]

most housing districts

[coral elk]

I’m trying to farm poetics after completing my roulettes (and am only up to HE). Any advice on methods? I read farming the hard modes for the ARR primals is a good way to get new player bonuses

[marble drift]

because houses can put mailboxes in their frontyards which serve the same purpose as postmoogles

and are close to MB's

[marble drift]

Why are you trying to farm poetics tho?

[raven sage]

Gridania would probably be the closest thing to what you want

[coral elk]

Anima weapon

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey guys not sure what I’ve done but when I hover over a quest on the map, no text appears telling me what it is anymore. Does anyone know the customisation option to fix? x

[twilit arch]

!faq poetics

[zinc orbit]

What should I spend my Poetics on? How do I get more?

Text guide on what to spend Tomestones of Poetics on

Video guide on how to get more Tomestones of Poetics

[twilit arch]

check the second link @coral elk

[open kernel]

@raven sage isnt gridania a multitude of maps?

i mean without leaving a specific area

[twilit arch]

mail moogle and marketboard are in the same area

[raven sage]

Old Gridania has both

[open kernel]

rgr

[marble drift]

Aetherochemical Research Facility is probably the best poetics per/time

but just to clear. unless you're finished with all the msq. don't derail to do anima weapon

[coral elk]

Thank you!

[coral elk]

Ah, I see. I’ve read arguments for and against it, given its length. But I will try it too, thanks

[marble drift]

right but it has a dual purpose thing

you'll catch new players (its MSQ required) and its a ton of poetics on its own

its either that or Praetorium. Do you really wanna go through Prae a billion times?

Really though after doing 3 and a half anima weapons, they're best poetic farmed super slowly. sticking to roulettes

and just spending poes whenever they turn up in your inventory

[woeful hill]

What does the inteligence and mind stats does?

[marble drift]

Int is the damage stat for magical dps

mind for healers

[woeful hill]

Alrighty thank you

So mind is how effective the heal effect has right?

[carmine goblet]

You should also be able in hover over stats with your mouse and will tell you what it does and who it is for

[dire prawn]

I has a question

[carmine goblet]

Yes, and how much damage healers do

[woeful hill]

Ok i'll keep in mind thank you

[dire prawn]

Does Hissatsu: Kaiten's 50% damage bonus only apply to the initial damage effect of Higanbana, or does it apply to the entire DoT as well?

[marble drift]

entire dot

your rotation (once you get Kenki Mastery II) is to Kaiten before EVERY iajatsu use

[coral elk]

@marble drift all good points. After trying trials for a bit, I’ll switch

[marble drift]

every higan, every midare

you're early in your samurai-ness so you wont have the Kenki to do that

but whenever possible. Do throw it out before Iajatsu

[dire prawn]

Yeah my only combo right now that gives me Kenki is Hakaze > Yukikaze ;_;

[shrewd owl]

kasha and gekko give kenki too

just have to land positionals

or is that not until a certain level

[marble drift]

Not at their level Fid

[shrewd owl]

ah

[marble drift]

thats Kenki Mastery 2

[dire prawn]

That's in two levels I believe

At 54

I'm at 52 with SAM

[marble drift]

No actually that should be later

[shrewd owl]

!trait kenki mastery 1

[zinc orbit]

**Kenki Mastery II** : lvl 62 SAM

Increases Kenki Gauge when landing all weaponskills excluding Iaijutsu.

Powered by XIVAPI

[dire prawn]

I lied

[shrewd owl]

oh yeah i just checked ingame lol

[dire prawn]

Oh I just unlocked Kenki Mastery at 52

Which is the positional one

[marble drift]

we talked about this one babeh

[dire prawn]

I lied again

[marble drift]

your speed buff 3rd hit is flank

[dire prawn]

Kenki Mastery is select weapon skills

[marble drift]

your damage buff 3rd hit is rear

[shrewd owl]

by level 62 you'll be absolutely smothered in kenki lol

[obsidian patio]

The first mastery still adds it to the positional of kasha and gekko

[dire prawn]

Oh I see now

[obsidian patio]

So until 62 only your combo enders with their positional bonus give kenki

[dire prawn]

And then at 62 everything I do gives me kenki?

[shrewd owl]

every weaponskill yeah

[obsidian patio]

All GCDs except Iajutsu, yeah

[warped nest]

You don't have a lot of way to spend kenki before lvl 62 anyway

[obsidian panther]

tigerking's dumb question of the hour

if I do a job as DRG and then can I switch to a different class and get XP for the lesser class?

[warm knoll]

No

[faint flare]

Only if the job meets the minimum required level

[obsidian panther]

ah ok - thank you!

[warm knoll]

Yeah

[warped nest]

You cannot use higher level quest of power level low level job

[warm knoll]

Yeah

[obsidian panther]

figured they would plug that hole - thanks

[warm knoll]

Nope

[warped nest]

Even if you can complete the quest, chances are the exp will be scaled to your current job

[warm knoll]

Yeah

[worthy rain]

Salutes, the "videos" section in title screen are trailers or something?

[warped nest]

Opening movies

For each expansions

[barren arrow]

Can I get my BLU log if I do the dungeon with undersized party, but synced?

[jolly sky]

Do you guys got any guides for blacksmithing? 🙂

[warped nest]

What guides are you looking for specifically

For general crafting guide, check out #doh-dol-lounge

If you cannot view this, make yourself a crafter in #612757637813239808

[jolly sky]

A guide for lvling it

I'll check that ty

[worthy rain]

Is there an option for make aggro to the enemy, instead of targeting partners npc?

[warped nest]

Play tank

[worthy rain]

Maybe agro is not What I mean

I mean, lock on an enemy, but sometimes after pressing that attack (or action) button, you lock on an npc

Then quickly move the lock on manually to the enemy

[warped nest]

Soft targetting?

[worthy rain]

Does anyone know if there is an option to skip npc lock on?

I dont know what is soft, but yes target

Lock on, be ready to cast

Take aim

Im so into the battle and after defeating an enemy I just wanna target the other enemy fast, and suddenly sometimes it aims to the npc, like ......

[warped nest]

Not soft targeting then

Soft targetting is temporarily peeking a new target to use one skill on it, you then automatically goes back to your original target

It is used mostly for healing and tanking

[worthy rain]

No, not that
Ok thanks for the explanation 👍

[warped nest]

And in some cases, Dps to apply buff or utility skill

For the behavior you are seeking

You need to look into the character configuration to tinker with how targetting works

[worthy rain]

Ok thanks for the info 👍

[worthy rain]

Ok, so the channel is with low comments now, can you explain What is character configuration?

[remote lintel]

the setting

[crystal bluff]

its the menu in your settings

[manic flare]

are you playing this on keyboard and mouse or controller?

[unborn lagoon]

Do essences apply even after dying in DR savage?

[worthy rain]

Controller

But yes, thanks I know that menu 👍

[crystal bluff]

@unborn lagoon yes

[unborn lagoon]

Ty

[grizzled rover]

is there like full expansion that is cheaper

i kinda want to get all of them

but i dont want to pay the insane full price

maybe i should have gotten teh game off steam

instead of square enix

[marble drift]

its all probably going to be same price

[remote lintel]

just buy the complete edition?

[grizzled rover]

thats what i mean

[faint flare]

Complete edition is on sale

[grizzled rover]

oh

does that happen often?

[remote lintel]

on the SE store kind of

[faint flare]

Not supeeeeeer frequently

Its here and there

[marble drift]

generally big annoucements or holidays

but its not a surefire thing

[grizzled rover]

i see

is there one during the summer and stuff

[faint flare]

Sometimes

[grizzled rover]

winter for sure rigt

[remote lintel]

probably

[grizzled rover]

lets go

alright

thanks

[faint flare]

Maybe

Especially with the expansion launching

[grizzled rover]

could i wait for end walker and grab the complet edition

[remote lintel]

maybe

[modest igloo]

if you wanted to wait 6 months

[faint flare]

I doubt the new expansion or complete edition will go on sale after the expansion launch

[marble drift]

or more

[faint flare]

At least not after waiting abit

[grizzled rover]

i mean i dont mind grinding out the free trial xd

[remote lintel]

free trial content wont last 6 months

[faint flare]

Its a 6 month wait for launch

[grizzled rover]

oh

[faint flare]

• probably another 6 month for a sale on the new expansion

[grizzled rover]

i mean it takes a while getting evey class 60 right

[faint flare]

Eh

[grizzled rover]

and the wol and hols

or whatever

[remote lintel]

not 6 months

[faint flare]

You can knock that out in a month or two

Levelling isnt hard

Just tedious

[grizzled rover]

i see

dam

[marble drift]

honestly tho. If you're having financial troubles just purchasing the game

ask if you can afford the subscription

before committing

[modest igloo]

the games not getting any cheaper than now on SE store

[warm knoll]

Any tips for leveling from 40-50 no msq I'm getting sick of duty finder

[marble drift]

PotD?

[faint flare]

Either dungeons or potd

[warm knoll]

Pots?

[faint flare]

Palace of the dead

[marble drift]

Palace of the Dead

[grizzled rover]

yea i think i probably should have gottenit off steam or something like that

[warm knoll]

Ah yeah me and my friend tries that exp seemed trash

[faint flare]

No

[remote lintel]

its not

[modest igloo]

ales happen less on the steam version

sales*

[faint flare]

Its good, lower than dungeons but you consider the que times

[grizzled rover]

oh

[warm knoll]

Sure I'll give it a try

[faint flare]

Potd is faster if your que times are long

[remote lintel]

potd gives a set amount of exp per group of floors

[faint flare]

Due to quick in n out

[warm knoll]

Sweet my queue times are usually 10ish mins so would it be viable then?

[faint flare]

Yes

[jovial tide]

Does the castrum stat curve compensate for the amount of people in the instance?

Or perhaps CEs in general

[faint flare]

Yes

It scales

Though there is a minimum floor

[grizzled rover]

what do i do withall this paint

[faint flare]

CEs minimum is around a 4-8man party but entirely soloable, with the right actions

[marble drift]

dye? dye your gear

or vendor it

your call

[grizzled rover]

ok

thanks

[faint flare]

Castrums need minimum 15 people bottom and some really good DPS up top, minimum total about 20

[grizzled rover]

ya idk how to do that imma just keep it in mu inv lmao

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a waiting period from leaving an FC to creating one or can i do it as soon as i leave

[remote lintel]

24 hours iirc

[marble drift]

go to anyone that sells things and click on the thing in your inventory you're trying to sell

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[ebon zodiac]

Hi, i'm really new to ffxiv, downloaded the free trial on ps4 at the beginning of this week and am at lvl 18 now, and i don't plan on doing it soon, but how do i upgrade to the "normal" version?

[remote lintel]

buying it on the ps store

or on another platform if you want

[dire prawn]

It's on sale for 50% off right now

[remote lintel]

you cant save the code on ps

[ebon zodiac]

Yeah but i wanna get the most i can out of the trial, since i don't want to start paying monthly yet

So if i buy for example the complete edition, it changes to the monthly payment system?

[remote lintel]

you get 30 free days

after that you need to sub

[austere estuary]

The trial let's you pay through the first expan for free to label 60

There's no time limit

[earnest wraith]

[ebon zodiac]

Okay, i think i understand now

Thanks to you all!

[earnest wraith]

(me, who bought on steam and waiting for SQE to put SHB on sale)

[austere estuary]

Aww im sorry Def

[earnest wraith]

seriously, why don't they allow steam users to redeem sqe store key on mog station

[austere estuary]

Different account types

[remote lintel]

steam licenses are different

[craggy cliff]

Quick question, I keep trying to look this up but can't seem to find the right wording lol, could someone please tell me what the numbers to the right of the level listed on the duty finder is? The one with the box around it that's usually 0

[twilit arch]

its indicating how many parties are up for that roulette/instance in the party finder

[craggy cliff]

Ohh, that makes sense, thanks! And the reason why the "other parties recruiting" # is so much higher is prob because most people are doing higher level duties, right?

[rigid wolf]

Do you get access to eulmore again after a feast of lies?

[dire prawn]

Can I do my hunt log while visiting another world

[scarlet sandal]

I assume Heart of Stone is like the Blackest Night essentially?

[scarlet arrow]

...no

it's not a shield, just a defense buff

[scarlet sandal]

Essentially though it's what you use for tank Busters right

[faint flare]

Its gnbs short defensive cd

[scarlet sandal]

And when do you use Sonic Break because it feels awkward and out-of-place wherever I use it

[faint flare]

Under no mercy

Always

[leaden ginkgo]

what are the nodes that i can go to

for SB

is it just level 80 nodes

or can i get SB From other nodes that give me vii/viii

[rigid wolf]

When do you get access to the market board in eulmore?

[strange coral]

There isn't one in Eulmore

[rigid wolf]

Oh meant splendors

[strange coral]

After 5.0 MSQ I think

[raven sage]

No

It's when you come back somewhere around level 77 or so

[rigid wolf]

Have a million of these revelations dont know where to use

I mean im here in lvl 77 missions i think

Well im at the Ladder

[leaden ginkgo]

???

[raven sage]

Oh maybe I'm thinking of the aetheryte then

[rigid wolf]

The mission

The Ladder

[raven sage]

If you can't talk to them now then yeah it's probably 5.0

[faint flare]

For tomestones you need to finish Shadowbringers

[rigid wolf]

Bummer

Only way to use these revelations?

[faint flare]

Yes

[rigid wolf]

Yikes

[leaden ginkgo]

@faint flare are level 80 nodes the only ones who give gathering materia from SB

[faint flare]

Since they're from lv80 content

[rigid wolf]

Ah

[raven sage]

Nodes don't give materia

[leaden ginkgo]

SB

[raven sage]

Do you mean scrips?

[leaden ginkgo]

does

im asking abiut SB

[raven sage]

I have no idea what you mean

[leaden ginkgo]

SB = SPIRITBond

[raven sage]

Ah

[twilit arch]

most people are going to assume you're talking about stormblood by saying SB

[leaden ginkgo]

oh lol

[raven sage]

yeah

[twilit arch]

because almost no one uses "sb" to refer to it as spiritbond

What grade and type of materia you get is decided by the level/type of the gear

So if you're extracting from gathering gear, you're going to get gathering materia

[leaden ginkgo]

yws ik that

im asking which nodes cause SB to happen

cuz i did unspoiled doesnt go up at all

[raven sage]

It depends on the level of gear

[twilit arch]

depends on the lvl of the gear

[leaden ginkgo]

level 80 nodes go up fine

[raven sage]

Aesthetes takes a while for example

[twilit arch]

if you're spiritbonding lvl 80 gear, you need to be doing lvl 80 nodes

[leaden ginkgo]

yes

[twilit arch]

specifically you want to be doing legendary nodes for aesthete/facet

[leaden ginkgo]

but not all level 80 nodes give it

[dire prawn]

So I finished Praetorium and the 2.0 questline to be able to use poetics

But what's the easiest way to farm them so I can buy Ironworks gear

Just do all of the Lv 50 dungeons?

[twilit arch]

unlocking and doing the lvl 50 dungeons will give you a hefty chunk of poetics

since you'll have a lot of first timer bonuses

should note though, that post ARR msq will give you gear

so don't really need to go out of your way to buy a full set of ironworks

[dire prawn]

I've been told the post-ARR msq gear is worse than the poetics gear

[twilit arch]

it is, but its more than enough to do msq with

[leaden ginkgo]

so do all level 80 nodes give SB

cuz some dont and some do huh

[dire prawn]

The first thing I did after I finished the MSQ and had 600 poetics was upgrade my WHM weapon

[plain atlas]

are there other Jp servers with a sizable English population?

[twilit arch]

Again it depends on the gear itself. If you're trying to spiritbond aesthete, you need to be doing legendary nodes because that's the appropriate "ilvl" node for aesthete.

[plain atlas]

both ton and kuja are full

[leaden ginkgo]

@twilit arch yes i know

i have gear for legendary

[twilit arch]

you could try waiting until later in the day for tonberry/kujata to open since they're temporarily locked due to how many people are currently logged in

[leaden ginkgo]

im asking

what nodes

[twilit arch]

I told you

[leaden ginkgo]

is it just legendary nodes

[twilit arch]

the legendary nodes

[leaden ginkgo]

that give SB

okay

cuz this my set for SB legndary 3 sta nodes

[halcyon grail]

So I was looking at my glam options for an eastern themed tank glam. The Genta set looks alright, but the colors are... bland. I was thinking of trying to get the Genji set through some kind of unsynced farm. My question is how hard this would be, especially for a player who doesn't have any interest in current savage.

[icy nest]

hi! is it possible to desynth tsukuyomi gear for the crafting mat? i'm hearing that it's not possible like the other primals...

[torn canopy]

When is the world status updated?

[open coral]

Preferred/Congested/Standard are updated each patch.

[torn canopy]

No, I mean the status of available for new characters

[open coral]

Constantly.

It depends on how many people are logged in to that server at a time.

[torn canopy]

Is it every few hours, or instantly?

[open coral]

If there's a server that isn't Congested status that you want to create a character on, but it's closed to new character creation, try waiting until that region's off-hours.

[plain atlas]

every 3 min

[faint flare]

Lodestone itself lags behind abit but it updates frequently

[twilit arch]

in-game the server status basically constantly updates

[torn canopy]

oh then when is the off-hours?

[open coral]

Off-hours will usually be sometime between 12am and 4am for a given region.

[faint flare]

Usually late at night/early morning for that respective region

[twilit arch]

basically early morning/late night

aka when people are asleep

[vast temple]

Early morning for that servers time zone. I was able to make my alt on a preferred server around 6am no problem

[faint flare]

Or should be asleep

[torn canopy]

Oh ok, thank you all for answering

[vast temple]

And now my alt will sit all alone until I remember to start leveling him 😅

[plain atlas]

what would tonberrys off hours be, I'd their timezones

idk'

[twilit arch]

Tonberry/Kujata are JP which is GMT+9

[vast temple]

I used to use this for work - planning by time zone. Put in your city/area and compare w/ JP https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meeting.html

[twilit arch]

and its almost 2pm for them

[vast temple]

I’m slow w/ basic arithmetic and seeing it list out the simultaneous times helped me a lot

[plain atlas]

I too am incapable of doing basic algebra, ty tho

[torn canopy]

If we already make new character, with costum appearance and everything, but the home world we choose don't accept new characters yet, are we have to wait with the game open until it does?

If I close the game, is my character saved?

[twilit arch]

you can save the data appearance

but you'll have to re-enter your name and select the world again if you close the game

[torn canopy]

Oh I see, thank you

[oblique yew]

i really messed up
my account has OTP which i used the app for
but i had quit the game and hadnt gone back for few months and had deleted the app
and now that i want to start playing again, i redownloaded the app only to realize that i forgot my registration password and i cant find it anymore in my emails
what should i do?

[solar surge]

So, are the data servers better depending on where you live? (ie. Primal is west, Aether is Central, Crystal is east?)

[faint flare]

No

Not like that

All NA data centres are in the same location

In Cali

[solar surge]

Ohhh okay

Thank you

Is it possible to transfer characters through data servers, and is it still possible to make characters on Famfrit?

[strange coral]

You can not transfer data centers for free, and that involves a home world transfer. 6.0 will bring some sort of datacenter interconnectivity, but we don't know details on how it works yet.

As for Famfrit

!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.

[solar surge]

Thank you, much appreciated

[plain atlas]

u may need to contact se support and verify that your you

using available resources that is, for me that was confirming what my birthday was

[elder locust]

Currently, is it still important to be strategically placing your faerie as a scholar during boss fights? I remember at one time you needed to place it because moving too much would interrupt its casting.

[faint flare]

Ideally so you can hit people with the fairy aoes

Especially while dodging mechanics

And more so on bosses with large hitboxes so you can hit everyone

Not needed buttttt something to consider

[remote lintel]

a lot of the faerie skills have a range

[elder locust]

Okay, so movement isn't going to drastically effect the faeries casting. Just important for stuff like aoes.

[remote lintel]

and the healing laser

[oblique yew]

@plain atlas actually i found the solution to that. i had used an alt gmail acc and forgot about it

but now i have a new problem, the app keeps saying the time limit has exceeded

[elder locust]

Thanks guys.

[polar cairn]

where is the seasonal shop?

[split yacht]

hello! im looking for a semi-empty server, to buy a house and dont wait for connection queues, any advice?

im from NA

[elder locust]

One other question, what scenario did I use ifrit egi vs Garuda egi? Is one for groups and the other for bosses or something?

[remote lintel]

@polar cairn next to the gate at mih khettos

[faint flare]

Ifirit for bosses

Garuda for 3+ enemies

[remote lintel]

@split yacht pray

[elder locust]

Thnx

[vital ruin]

Why are some gears I buy from the market, gets market prohibition when I try to sell them

[polar cairn]

hmm

so theres no way to get the previous valentione stuff

[faint flare]

Did you use it for glamour or combat

Mogstation

For old seasonal events

[polar cairn]

of course

[vital ruin]

I used it for combat

[faint flare]

Then its bound to you

Hey guys, some parts of the msq requires you to do a dungeon to continue, is it possible to skip this step?

[faint flare]

No

[austere estuary]

Nope

[cosmic abyss]

Ahhh damn

[faint flare]

You're always going to need to do dungeons for story

And there's many

[vital ruin]

I'm doing anima relic as a summoner. If I wanna do it with DK do I have to do summoner all over again? Or can I continue it from where I left off

[oblique crag]

If I stop the subscription, will my stuff and level get deleted or saved? Anything will happen too?

[faint flare]

Nothing happens to it

[austere estuary]

Saved

[faint flare]

Its just waiting for you to come back

[faint flare]

You just continue

Just remember you cant accept the same quest on two different jobs

[oblique crag]

So if I stop subscription, can I still log in but stuff are restricted? Or I will have to pay to play

[remote lintel]

you cant log in

[oblique crag]

Interesting

Thank you all

[vital ruin]

So how do I start the relic as DK
Do I just interact

[faint flare]

Just go to the relic quest giver as the job you want

And pick up the first quests

[vital ruin]

Okay so I just want deathbringer awoken. After getting that I can switch back to summoner and continue?

[faint flare]

Yes

You can do both at once

[vital ruin]

Nice nice

[faint flare]

Provided they're different steps

[vital ruin]

I c

[glad quail]

How do you get enough gil to buy new lvl 5 gear when you're only lvl 9?

My friend doesn't have enough to complete this quest

[jovial tide]

Side quests?

[faint flare]

You only need a hat

Your racial starting gear is already item level 5

[glad quail]

Oh ok

[odd bobcat]

Does somoene knows what are opções dor ffxiv?

Op codes*

[faint flare]

Ask in #technology-discussion

The nerds are there

For that stuff

[vital ruin]

Do I need to abandon the summoner relic before talking to gerolt

[faint flare]

Only if you're trying to accept the same quest as another job

You cant have the same quest running on two different jobs

But you can have two different quest steps running at the same time

[vital ruin]

I wanna start DK relic from the beginning

But when I talk to gerolt
It only has coming into its own and requires summoner

[faint flare]

Then Provided you dont have the first quest accepted for Summoner then you can take it

If yoy already accepted it and haven't finished it as summoner you'll have to abandon or finish it

[vital ruin]

o I c

[faint flare]

Again, you cant be on the same step on two different jobs

Is Dance, Magic, Dance still the optimal levequest for vileskin farming?

The one in the hinterlands on the hill? That you get from Ishgard?

[pale jungle]

I have a quick question, when usually the collector edition upgrades goes on sale ? Like 50% off things like that ?

[glacial isle]

Does paying for the game via Crysta cost the same (in $) as with paying for it with a credit card?

[twilit arch]

yes

[twilit wasp]

hi so im starting out FF 14 this weekend for first time and was wondering if anyone could give me their general opinions on the bard and monk class at the current patch

[faint flare]

They're fine

Both high apm

[dire prawn]

It's on sale right now

[dire prawn]

All classes are good so MNK vs BRD is just a question of if you want to do ranged damage or melee damage

[twilit wasp]

hmmm

[pale jungle]

Oh really ? For collector edition upgrades as well ? @dire prawn I will go check it out

[twilit arch]

if you're talking about the digital upgrade on the mogstation

that is not on sale

[pale jungle]

Yah that’s what I’m meant

Oh I see

[twilit arch]

there's no real pattern to when that goes on sale

[pale jungle]

Okey noted

Thx

[twilit wasp]

ive never really played ranged classes in other rpgs so I thought id consider bard for ff14

[dire prawn]

Bard Machinist and Dancer are physical ranged dps while Red Mage Black Mage and Summoner are magic ranged dps

Red Mage though is a mix of both ranged and melee attacks

[glacial isle]

(of those, only Bard, Machinist, Black Mage and Summoner are on the Trial)
(If that matters to you)

[dire prawn]

Bard, Black Mage and Summoner are the only ones with a starter class, and if you're free trial you need to reach Heavensward to gain access to Machinist

Red Mage requires a class at 50 and Stormblood while Dancer requires a job at 60 and Shadowbringers

[twilit wasp]

ive purchased the complete edition already so im open to all class options for now

since it was on sale 🙂

[dire prawn]

Well there you go

Bard starts as Archer, Black Mage starts as Thaumaturge and Summoner starts as Arcanist

Machinist requires you to start Heavensward and enter Ishgard, Red Mage requires you to reach Lv 50 and Dancer requires you to reach Lv 60

[twilit wasp]

between mnk and bard which would you say is more new player friendly?

[remote lintel]

monk

but i mean theyre both easy

bard doesnt have any combos

[winged fossil]

Hi all. I'm new this week, on a non-preferred server. I am lvl 29 ACN but also want to do conj and thaum (for options - currently just lowlevels). Is it wildly inefficient to do these alongside rather than later? If not, which quests are best done as which to make most of exp bonuses etc.

[remote lintel]

no it isnt

level them with hunt logs, challenge log, fates, daily roulette, beast tribes when you get to 40+, etc

[winged fossil]

And, for options options options, could i do a tank at the same time? WHich tank is the most interesting/non just smashy smashy

i've never played a tank or healer before in my life in any game.

[remote lintel]

i mean you can do as many as you want youll just have to work harder to level them

pick whichever tank looks cool

they all have their own gimmick

[winged fossil]

ok i need to read some about tanks

[remote lintel]

theres a video in the pins

https://youtu.be/k_vH-1WZQ3A

[winged fossil]

thanks. maybe it would be nice to do warrior and just go full smashy. although paladin would still have a leetle bit of magic/holy stuff which could be a nice blend. then again, i really don't know if iactually can face levelling four jobs as a newbie ha

also, in the character screen, what does the little */star in my portrait mean? average item level?

[faint flare]

Yes

[winged fossil]

just for the hunting log

[winged fossil]

thanks. how correspondent (if at all) should my ilvl be to my character level. like my ilvl is 16 and my character is 30. is that fine? i've equipped all the recommended stuff.

and got all the drops/rewards it gives me

[remote lintel]

thats low

for like 50 and below your ilvl should be about your character lvl

[faint flare]

Pre 50 it would be roughly around your level

Though accessories will usually be the thing that drags you down

Like fucking nothing drops accessories

[dire prawn]

^

I finished ARR 2.0 and I still have sub-30 accessories

[worthy basin]

Can you buy the game on ps store us when your ffxiv account's region is in UK?

[winged fossil]

hmmmm ok. i will have to have a think about that. and the recommended/auto-equip thing can usually be trusted?

[faint flare]

For the most part

thanks

@worthy basin no

[tawdry kindle]

I just started and im at lvl 12, for quest rewards i get the option of equipment for either discipline of war, all class equip or a coin? Is there a recommended rewards to go for?

[kind nest]

so i was told that ARR is super boring of a story and i've tried to play through it once before years ago but this time im gonna buy a skip potion, is there a specific video i should watch that will just tell me everything that happened up to heavensward?

[remote lintel]

@tawdry kindle what class are you

@kind nest dont

[tawdry kindle]

Lancer

[remote lintel]

pick the gear that has more strength than your gear

strength as in the stat

[tawdry kindle]

Sweet! Thanks for the advice!

[vital ruin]

How low is the luminous crystal drop rate
I did like 10 fate non stop not even 1 dropped

[remote lintel]

rng

[kind nest]

@remote lintel i kinda already decided to skip arr, i'm more concerned about where i can watch or read the entire story of arr so i know whats going on in heavensward.

[remote lintel]

i mean whoever told you ARR is super boring is wrong firstly

secondly ARR is extremely important to the story and sets up literally everything that happens afterward and if you skip the ending you'll be extremely confused about why half the characters are missing even if you watch a video

its highly recommended for new players to just play it

[dire prawn]

Question: Are the Hard trials for Ifrit/Garuda/Titan required to progress MSQ

[remote lintel]

third there's a google doc in #archived-lore-spoilers with the story

@dire prawn yes

oh cool, thanks @remote lintel thats all i needed lol

[pearl mesa]

I'm trying to do the White Mage quests after Level 50. I've completed all of them so far and I'm at Level 56, but they're not showing up under my next storyline quest and there's no one where the NPC is supposed to be.

Do I need to get to the correct point in the story?

Or is there something else I'm doing wrong?

[dire prawn]

Must be nice being able to do your WHM quests after 50 ?-?

[remote lintel]

@pearl mesa you need to get to HW

[pearl mesa]

Okay, thanks.

I'm still working through the quests between ARR and HW.

[remote lintel]

job quests are tied to expansions

like levels 50+ didnt exist in ARR

so you wouldnt be able to do those job quests

[pearl mesa]

Makes sense. Thank you!

[dire prawn]

Oh you're in the same predicament I am

Yeah in order to do WHM quests after the Lv 50 one that gave us 5 pieces of i90 Cleric's gear and Benediction we have to complete the MSQ 'Before the Dawn'

Which is the last MSQ in ARR

[pearl mesa]

I've finished ARR. I'm still not into Heavensward, though - apparently there's just a ton of quests between them.

[dire prawn]

80, to be exact

[twilit patrol]

is it bad that i am lvl 50 and i still didn't get my chocobo fighter? 😄

[remote lintel]

eh

but you should

[twilit patrol]

is it too late? i heard its pretty hard to level it up when u are at high level

[remote lintel]

50 isnt high level

[dire prawn]

I could do that but I still haven't bothered to get the green leaf things to summon it into battle

[remote lintel]

just get it now

[twilit patrol]

ok, will do

how do i spec him ?

[manic rune]

you can get the greens for extremely cheap

[silver ruin]

what class are you playing

[twilit patrol]

tank, healer or dps?

or doesnt matter?

[silver ruin]

tank is generally useless cause you'll rip aggro off

[remote lintel]

dps or healer

[silver ruin]

^

[remote lintel]

then tank

youll have enough levels to get all 3 trees

[twilit patrol]

thanks 🙂

[manic rune]

don't bother with tank until you finish the other skill trees

if you're a healer, go dps choco

if you're dps, healer choco

[twilit patrol]

do i get like other pets that fight?

[manic rune]

that's it unless you're a summoner

[twilit patrol]

well yeah i am 😄

[manic rune]

iirc smn have 2 carbuncles and 3 primal egis (garuda, ifrit, titan)

and later on you'll be able to summon a bahamut and phoenix in ur rotation

[lime sphinx]

Hello, i want to transfer server but it keeps saying i'm not allowed to, any way to know which thing i'm missing or is the system just that bad ?

[twilit patrol]

yeah summoners look really fun and i get a healer for free as well 😄

[remote lintel]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/option_service/world_transfer_service/

[twilit patrol]

[manic rune]

i recommend not following desperius's videos if you've come across them

[twilit patrol]

My feisty little chocobo is the quest for chocobo fighter right?

[remote lintel]

i would put true thrust, vorpal thrust, full thrust on 123 and disembowel and chaos thrust on 4 and 5

As long as you put it up before Chaos Thrust you’re good

if you're looking for other people do it with, ^

undersizing a dungeon means you cannot get matchmade

you go in with who you have in your party when hit

[vital ruin]

o

[twilit patrol]

choosing more languages will make finding parties easier right?

[wintry chasm]

ehhhh yeah and also no

Mostly depends on the region you're in but for Light even though it's EU I never really find it makes too much of a difference since most people have English tagged on anyway

[twilit patrol]

man I wanna do a lvl 35 guildhest and i've been waiting for 35 minutes already 😦

[gloomy ice]

60 per tick for a whole minute. That’s ridiculous.

[dire prawn]

Is Higanbana the highest potency DoT?

[warped nest]

Should be

[marble drift]

40 potency? eh. probably not

but its the longest

[shrewd owl]

not as much potency as smth like bow shock

but its HELLA long

plus you spam shinten a fuck ton as samurai

and that dmg builds up a lot i imagine

[marble drift]

the point of this whole conversation

is that numbers

are deciving

deceiving*

[shrewd owl]

isnt potency different for every job anyway

[warped nest]

Yes

[shrewd owl]

idk if u could compare technical step to like
midare

[true jolt]

Imo dnc have big burst dmg but the dps drop outsude step window since the combo having rng

[frozen girder]

1,100 potency burst attack XD

[marble drift]

ohright. only 1100 for that one

[frozen girder]

Plus that

[true jolt]

You forgot to add kassatsu bonud

[warped nest]

So this is 1560

[frozen girder]

So in 2 min you get 3500 potency total

[shrewd owl]

dont forget samurai has the 13 percent dmg buff with jinpu

[frozen girder]

Plus the DoT Higanbana

Yeah

4550 potency * 113%

[dire prawn]

So in other words

[frozen girder]

Wait

[dire prawn]

Samurai is big dick DPS

[marble drift]

and potency

is a lie

[frozen girder]

5600 potency every 2 min * 113%

Just in the cooldown skills

I am maining Sam till Endwalker, and Imma pull an Alphinaud

[slate arrow]

no you don't

You can transfer but all items will be shunted into the storeroom

@rugged crypt puppets bunker no longer has a loot lockout outside of the Materia cluster tokens

[rocky obsidian]

can someone queue for camp westwind lol jk

[rugged crypt]

Oh I got a tutorial pop up about it that's confusin

Cheers mate

[true jolt]

I think after next major patch you can grind to your heart content

What its the lates patch your gear is limited 1/week but other lime minion, music etc is unlimited

[ripe remnant]

Wait so if it all goes to a storeroom is there just like a option to put it all back the way it was

[dire prawn]

How in the fuck does one go from 70 to 80 in four hours

[marble drift]

if you actually needed assistance with Cape, best to head to your data center channel and ask there

[slate arrow]

No

[true jolt]

Mogstation can do it on 5 sec

[frozen girder]

The same way I go from 1 to 70 in 6 hours

:3

[marble drift]

You can't buy boosts to 80

[slate arrow]

With a healer friend, preferably

[frozen girder]

Well

You won't for Sage

:3

[dire prawn]

Wut

[slate arrow]

also, you can't buy skips for current expansion jobs LUL

[true jolt]

Ohh didnt know that ahaha

[frozen girder]

So far, I've been doing a mix of Bozja, PotD, and HoH for leveling

[dire prawn]

I only have PotD >_>

[frozen girder]

PotD up to 61

[dire prawn]

I don't know what HoH or Bozja are

[frozen girder]

Heaven on High

It's PotD for 61-70

[slate arrow]

Heaven on High is for 61-71, Shadowbringers has no deep dungeon so you can just bring any 71 or above job into it and it'll sync you to lv80 i430

It being the Bozja Southern Front

[dire prawn]

Why do people say to farm 51-60 in PotD instead of a higher floor

[marble drift]

quickest, easiest

[frozen girder]

Because 51-60 and above give about the same EXP

[marble drift]

same payout

[slate arrow]

because it's the fastest to requeue for as a solo player

[dire prawn]

Oh

[frozen girder]

You can input levels in that tracker I made

[slate arrow]

everyone's running 1-10 or 51-60 since you can directly start on those floors

[dire prawn]

At what point can somebody start to solo 51-60?

[frozen girder]

And it will tell you how many sets of floors

It's easier to queue

[true jolt]

Your weap/armor also matters on highrr floor

[frozen girder]

The queue is basically instant

[slate arrow]

you can anytime, assuming your gear level is high enough

just queue with fixed party

Do note it'll take significantly longer though so

[dire prawn]

What if I'm starting from zero >_>

[slate arrow]

It's not recommended

[frozen girder]

That's my list

[dire prawn]

On Aether I've only done the first ten floors of PotD once because Cleave dragged me into it

[slate arrow]

welp, time for you to farm 1-10 until you can go higher

[frozen girder]

I have 2940 more floors of PotD left to do :3

[dire prawn]

On Primal I haven't ran it yet

[dire prawn]

Can I solo 1-10 from scratch? Or will it cause me nothing but pain

[frozen girder]

It will be painful

Just find people

Why play an MMO if you don't want to play with others

[slate arrow]

You could, but it's not worth it

[twilit patrol]

is potd good way to level up to lvl 50 for alts?

[frozen girder]

Yes

[dire prawn]

It's for leveling all the way to 60 Strife

[frozen girder]

It's a good way to level up to level 61

[twilit patrol]

good 🙂

thank you 🙂

[frozen girder]

However

It may make you hate the class

You're gonna be playing through the exact same thing 94 times from level 1 -> 61

[twilit patrol]

😄

[dire prawn]

94 times

[twilit patrol]

i am like 40 on alt

[frozen girder]

These are my levels

With these levels, I need to run it 294 times to get all to level 61

Then if I want to level them all to 70, I need to run Heaven on High 286 times

:3

A question I have about PotD

What does this mean

Does it mean I should go buy the aetherpool weapon hilts?

[twilit patrol]

on a single char how many times i need to HoH from 60 to 70?

[frozen girder]

40 something

[twilit patrol]

not bad

[dire prawn]

I need Google Sheets to edit the doc oof

[frozen girder]

Lel

Google Sheets is my fav tool

[dire prawn]

Wait

It says I need edit access

[slate arrow]

Make a copy

[frozen girder]

Make a copy!

[dire prawn]

Oh

I've never used this app

[frozen girder]

That's a blank template

That was the longest PotD queue I've had so far

2 minutes

[dire prawn]

Am I reading this right

Going from 31 to 61 is 500 PotD runs on MRD/WAR?

586 actually

Or am I missing something here

Or is that the total runs of PotD for everything

[frozen girder]

No

That tells you the total runs

For every class

[broken olive]

Yo so my friend is on free trial and he wanted to buy shb since it’s on sale can he still play on free trial?

[frozen girder]

Nope

But he can use the code later

[broken olive]

Aye bet ty

[dire prawn]

Oh

How do I make it show the runs for just one class

And I'm assuming that's the number of 51-60 runs?

[buoyant lava]

Whats up , anybody knows when does the sale end? Also will the 20 dollars edition get me all the current expansion with 1 month sub?

[frozen girder]

No, I haven't added that function @dire prawn

I'll make a actual chart

[dire prawn]

Is the number of PotD runs for Floors 51-60?

[frozen girder]

PotD runs

[true jolt]

Does strider boost still exist?

[slate arrow]

Yes

But you have to do eureka for them

[dire prawn]

For what floor set(s)

[slate arrow]

51-60

[frozen girder]

It can't tell you for an individual class

BUT

A work around you could use-- set every other class to 80

[dire prawn]

True
