ah!
do bard dots do alot at least
yes
idk how much per tick
it tells me potentcy
All the Fish in the Sea is the unlock quest
does mettle give any stat difference per level or is it a pure ranking system?
pure ranking system
idk how pot translates to damage
Itd a long winded forumla
you cant really directly translate potency to damage
Dont worry about the ezact
only thing tied to mettle is your ability to apraise higher lost action things
But its alot
pot is just general strength
ok thanks
higher potency is higher damage, exact amount depends on your level and your gear
i don't really see the point of killing mobs in bozja either
drop rate?
Fragments and clusters
And memories
it seems low because you want to farm them in groups, where you AOE down 10+ at a time
hardly worth solo farming
you're much better off with fates and critical engagements
Fragment drop ratw is based on rank
Memory rates are across the board it seems
Mass parties make mobs in bojza the fastwst way for memories
my problem is that all the parties are in old bozja or alermuc but I'm still <5 in rank
Memories goes to everyone in the group
Does anyone know how to fix the Fatal Direct X Error 11000002? Once it crashes my NVDIA GPU stops being detected and I have to restart.
Recently I've gotten the itch to get back into FFXIV.
I stopped playing shortly after the Shadowbringers' MSQ before the NieR RAID came out (Patch 5.1?). After I hit level 80 on SMN. I was grinding crafting/gathering/beast tribes but that got boring.
Besides the new MSQ content what is there to do? And general ideas.
Relics
Not sure if the right channel, but I main a Scholar but am leveling a Bard. On trash pulls in dungeons, should I apply all my dots and then AoE? Or AoE from the start? I end up doing a hybrid of applying DoTs until the first target is at 50% and then starting to Quick Nock but I feel like this isn't optimal.
apply a dot on like 3 enemies
While you're still running in the pull you can cast dots
When the pull stops use aoe
Certainly doing this
spam aoe on 3+ enemies
For those tanks that take it slow, or in cases where you only have 3 enemies, what would ya do?

spam aoe
Dot while enemies are still split apart
Spam after
So you might only get 1 or 2 dots off
But its better than nothing
Alternatively coax the tank to pull more
Because they gimp everyone by pulling 2 mobs at a time
Simply that spamming Quick Nock from 100% -> 0% is just boring, but I also want to properly fill the roll my party needs. Thanks ya'll!
are you able to help other worlds in their concerted works or is firmament still closed off to world visitors
Closed
It was unfair to actual home world residents
Because they couldn't participate
where do i go to appraise forgotten fragments?
Any resistance appraiser
They're at every aethernet shard in bozja
And also right next to sjeros in gangos
oh ok
whats is a gunbreaker combo action please?
Can I unlock other jobs' relic weapons without those jobs being at 80?
The quest needs to be accepted as a level 80
However you can keep the quest open and collect extra mats
For those relics
Does that apply to the Bozjan upgrade too?
It should
As long as the quest is active, there's no limit to collecting mats
I know some people mass collected memories for other jobs
You're correct
Then turned them all in at once
had friends mass farming
@mild lark its a combo
Awesome, that means I don't need PLD at 80 in order to get their Bozjan relic
If you're planning on obtaining more relics, you might as well mass farm it
was ultima weapon the ending to ARR
2.0
am i on heavensward now
Not ARR as a whole including post launch main story patches
oh
^
Which I'm pretty sure is like
2.X
50 something quests
80 quests
80
Okay even more
should i read
I think
or nah
yes
yes
of course
cuz im not evne reading this shit
absolutely
It's super important
ok i read
why dont you just buy a skip at that point then
Wayyyyyy more important than 2.0
you'll know what's happening and you'll be able to tell when you're going to the next expansion
its a story based/ff game first, mmo second
i can buy a skip?
story is a big part of it
the game is 75% story but yes
bro ARR stor was so boring
Worst case scenario if you don't wanna read post patch arr just read a summary for it
2.X patch stuff literally sets up EVERY single expansion in some way
ARR is slow, everything else after IS ABSOLUTELY BETTER
ok so they want to move and a primal awoken
its a slow burn story and ARR sets up literally everything else that happens
thatss what im getting so far
Not planning on equipping the RW btw (at least at first). Just wanting to get it.
Yeah patch 2.1 is slow but 2.2+ is pretty nice tbh
Where do I read bozjan field notes?
duty > collection
should i read the dialogue for these fetch quests
omg omg I abandoned my feast of famine quest. Do I have start all over again?!
||Lord Lolorito is indirectly our savior for like the entire story||
2.x spoiler-ish
i just dont kn wo who that is lmao
This is awful advice but I don't want to start an argument
Don't skip then
im not skipping shit
Yeah....
i didnt say to not read
i just met the cat girl that raised minfilla
is the amber draught chocobo whistle different from the draught chocobo whistle?
The bird is a different colour
Is law gear better than exarchic to use
Almost same stats for some and it has 5 slots for materia
Slightly yes due to guaranteed slots
mor dhona
Any of the 3 major cities, or more dhona
im there rn
up the hill to the right
Aurina and the other girl
roulettes
ok
So I just started playing again after a 5 year break... what should I focus on?
msq
msq
yes
can somebody help me with directX11 crashing? I can't play the game anymore 😦
a weapon
it kills my nvidia gpu and i am forced to restart
reinstall the game
idkthats what i did
#technology-discussion might be better
thanks
I see, although I’m not going to lie, I forgot how to do most of the content and what most of the stuff in my hotbot even does 😭
make a new character if you didnt get that far
I got to a level 60 PLD and 43 DRK
oh thats relatively far then
what’s ur current main quest
I don’t remember the name but I’m helping one of the main npc’s from ishgard to the dragon territory in hopes of peace.
up to you if you start over again
I really don’t want to ;~; think I might just rough it for now and hope people don’t get mad if I don’t quite remember how to play my role for now until I get a feel for the game again
look up weskalber's guides on youtube if you dont remember

I’ll give some of their videos a look when I can :3 and I forgot but what’s this games version of clans again? Maybe I can find one on my server and they can help me run some content?
Um, I have a few questions and it's a bit of a big message so apols in advance.
free companies
- So I am level 30 CNJ, just on the quest to go into WHM i think. I have a level 30 spell Cure II but it's greyed out, eve though it says CNJ and WHM can use it. ANy ideas?
- Also, the duty roulette just has two thing for me each day 'levelling' and 'guildhests'. I understand guildhests are not useful for levelling up my non-main classes, but if i do the 'levelling' roulette in the random dungeon it gives me, that's it then, no more bonus rewards today on any class, so i may as well pick the dungeons I fancy from dungeon tab? In the duty finder, apart from the roulette levelling and dungeons, the other tabs are not good for levelling?
- I have SCH. SMN at 32, WHM (nearly), and will next try to get my level 19 THM to RDM (it's very fragile with no healing and kinda right now feels underpowered). I am behind on my MSQ, like level 25. I would like to try the non-magic ranged or tanks, but should I wait until I've gotten some proper finished jobs or begin one of those now too? Perhaps it is going to be too much to learn all at once. One of my tanks died today because i forgot i was CNJ and i felt terrible.
- Is a tank dying terrible or does it happen? And should I rez them on the spot, wait until battle over, or let them rez themselves from the start and shortcut to us? Not sure of resurrection etiquette. I rez'd him anyway and i love being a healer and them like actually relying on you to keep them alive (when you manage it).
- Is it better to hand in my MSQs are my main job or switch them up with my side-jobs to get the exp?
- I have a FC but they don't seem to have exp bonuses... How do they get applied/chosen?
- My gear has materia slots (like ilvl 30 gear) but I have no clue what materia is and the game hasn't mentioned it once. Do I need it/what do I do?
perfect, thanks. i must be about to trigger it
and is levelling roulette and guildhests the only thing the front page of duty finder shows?
You get more roulettes as you unlock the duties that they’re for.
pick up classes whenever you want
always rezz the tank as soon as they die
theres is literally no reason to wait
This
and theyre the only thing keeping everyone from dying
Tanks have innate damage resistance so they dont get shredded immediately like everyone else
you cant turn in msq on a lower level class
fc boosts must be bought and used by authorized members
dont worry about materia until 80
materia is to insert substats into your gear
All Roulettes:
Expert: the 2 newest level 80 dungeons
80: all level 80 dungeons but the newest 2.
50/60/70: all level 50/60/70 dungeons
Leveling: all dungeons NOT at 50/60/70/80.
Trials: all normal mode trials (8-man)
Alliance Raid: all 24-man raids
Normal Raid: all 8-man raids
Guildhests: all guildhests
ok thanks for those efficient answers. so much appreciated.
4) Is a tank dying terrible or does it happen? And should I rez them on the spot, wait until battle over, or let them rez themselves from the start and shortcut to us? Not sure of resurrection etiquette. I rez'd him anyway and i love being a healer and them like actually relying on you to keep them alive (when you manage it).
The tank dying does happen, but only if both the healer and the tank have failed in some aspect of their jobs. If you're the healer, you should always rez the tank immediately unless all enemies are dead. If the tank is dead, there's nobody to stop the enemies from murdering the rest of the party, including you.
i mean they can die if one or the other is incompetent
Yeah, but a sufficiently skilled healer can generally keep even a scrub tank up unless there's a LOT going wrong on the tank's end.
It just means that the healer doesn't have as much time to do dps because they're spamming healing.
i had one that tried to do w2w pulls and used no cds except like rampart at 25% hp
the other two party members thought it might have been a bot(?) because he wasn't doing his aggro spells or whatever these tanks do.
Tanks don't have aggro spells. They have aggro stance.
tanks only need to turn on tank stance
It's either on or it's not.
but yeah, it was only my second dungeon as a CNJ
is it possible for bozja to just... run out of crit engagements? Been in this instance for 30 mins and have seen ZERO crits
well he hadn't. you get my meaning
People do keep joining tho so its not closed
@tardy patio they need to be spawned by people iirc
If the instance is "dead" and people aren't doing the FATEs CEs won't spawn.
we do every fate that pops
People may not be killing magitek
@winged fossil at low levels regen on the tank goes a long way
Ces only spawn when enough magitek are killed
So we've just been INSANELY unlucky to do every fate but see no crits in 30 mins?
regen?
Level 35
yeah i don't have it. i was a lvl 27-29 CNJ
So it doesn't help before... Brayflox? I think?
literally i hav cure I and esuna to remove a lot of poisons.
What dungeon did the tank die in anyway
If it was the second dungeon they did, I'd guess Tam-Tara.
But if it was specific queues for level... Toto-Rak or Haukke Manor?
um, tam-tara i think
i forgot i'd gone in as a healer so was pressing my dps buttons. it was awful. i felt literally like i'd let this person die. not a person in a game. they were very nice about it.
i said sorry
Yeah, I always take it personally when I let someone die on my watch.

Happened yesterday in Keeper of the Lake because my crossbars weren't flipping the way I needed them to so when I tried to use C2 it cast Holy instead since they're on the same trigger, but different bars.
And it took me like, 4 seconds too long to notice, so the tank died, and we wiped.
On trash.
It happens though. Sometimes your gear won't be up to par, or the tank's won't, or something else will go wrong.
If you keep being a healer, you learn to either shrug it off, or do better in the future.
It never stops sucking, but you can learn from all of your failures.
When it actually comes down to it, how worthwhile is Redraw?
To get seals you need for divination
yes i know that but
Redraw is neat when you have shit luck, like me
delaying card usages for redraw <> 3 seal divination?
Unless you’ll end up delaying your divination, it’s always worth going for 3 seals.
mkay.
But only hitting 2 unique ones isn’t bad.
The opener divination usually comes out the same time since you're only redrawing for second seal
Maybe 1 or 2 GCDs later
Yeah, just spamming redraws and getting nothing for it besides delayed cards felt scuffed
I can imagine this. And it would feel worse on kinda high stakes dungeons etc. These were all clearly people who were running them for speed. I just really love the idea of keeping everyone going rather than just being fireball boy which is what i've always played.
Even in higher level dungeons, it's all about the speed of the run. Most people are trying to get in and get out with their rewards. There are tricks that every healer learns somewhere along the way that lets us keep up with that kind of mentality though.
if it's any consolation, dungeons are never meant to be challenging for competent well equipped players
people go for speed because speed can present a challenge
doubtless you've felt once or twice that tanks taking dungeons pack by single pack feels a bit simple
well except bardam's cause jesus christ
well tbh, i am 8 days into the game and i'm fine with how i'm doing. dead tank or not. sorry mate.
that... wasn't an insult?
it is exciting when they run all the packs together but i'm also like 'be methodical!!'
Going slowly is also extremely boring, I want to click buttons and someone eating glue prevents that
i was simply explaining why people play for speed
There's a method to speedruns too.
i wasn't offended! sorry, didn't mean to sound that.
There's significant calculation involved on the tank and healer's parts to balance the pulls against survival.
And I don't know where the idea of "speed or control" comes from, like wtf
that 'sorry mate' was to my robot tank buddy, not you.
If you can't do mechanics properly you won't be going fast
understood. misread it
It's always nice when a tank asks if it's okay to pull big at the beginning of a dungeon, though. That gives me the opportunity to say "no, my gear isn't up to standard for that" if I'm undergeared.
i don't have an idea of mechanics yet cos i have been playing a few hours a day for a week. and they never say what their strategy or desire is.
I'll usually give them the go-ahead for big pulls if I'm on my main though.
are you mean tto voice chat to communicate all this?
No, in party chat
i can't do party chat and run
with more experience the speed comes with being methodical
if someone's asked you a question and then immediately hauled ass that's their problem
You won't see a lot of tanks asking if it's okay to go big in low level content. It's not until oh, late HW or early SB that you'll really start to see it.
Because content before then is considered "easy".
maybe my setup is wrong. i'm w/a/s/d for forward, back etc, so i can't type and move.
you can do auto run and type
/follow
Content after then is considered easy and you're expected to have learned how to do big pulls
Plus, dungeons are streamlined to only have 2 packs and some extra mobs sometimes
Per pull
i guess the considering it easy is fine. if it's your first or second time round, it's a bit disorienting. lik the spider web springs up and i'm trapped outside trying to stone a spiders web to death.
Yeah, later dungeons have hard limits on how far you can go (and therefore how much you can pull) before hitting walls.
while it is theoretically possible to wall-to-wall tam tara
and i have tried it and it's fun as hell
it's a lot less 'intended' than later content dungeons
Wait, can you? I kind of want to try that now...
Boss to boss in Tamtara
practice will make perfect/better for me, i'm sure.
it's doable, tight but doable
Practice is 100% going to be a factor.
afaik you need to make use of a few of the alternative paths too
but yes
comfort counts for 80% of capability
It was only really made possible since 5.0 since there's no limit to AoE now
knowing your kit and getting comfortable with it will let you know what your limits are/what to do in situations
kit/gear...? you mean armour or the spells you've got?
your abilities
Your "kit" is your abilities.
You could do it in 4.x as well, but TP was shit
do you have to do the crystal tower sidequests to get into HW?
i just wear the armour it aut-reocmmends me.
sowhy am i killing thse moogles they said protect the king
oh abilities. yeah, i am really learning those. like only yesterday i learned GCD/oGCD/weave
yes @flat yew
You don't really have any weaves at low level as WHM
and what syncs with what, and what's trash.
CT is integral to the plot of shadowbringers
sorry, i've derailed this a bit.
nah not really
You're fine, you're still seeking information.
comfort of healers is knowing exactly what you can do
aka 'how to make a tank slam their immunity while you still have perfect control'
hehe
"how to make your whole party panic as you Glare spam and still have time to heal them before the next big raidwide"
and while healing isn't entirely about playing chicken with health bars
when you CAN, you're there
It's fun
where do i go for level 70 gear withpoetics
is it possible to get the skyworker's doublet without the arm tats
Rhalgars or kugane
One of the things I learned to do relatively early on was use the first couple of pulls in a dungeon to take the measure of the tank by letting their HP drop to 75%/50%/25% and then healing them with a direct heal.
ty
no
well you could probably mod it very easily
but basegame, no
Seeing how much of their HP recovers with a single heal gives me a good idea of how tight I can get with my healing.
During frontline people in chat were like “approximately 10, 6, and 2 for the small nodes, the large heliodrome in in 10 minutes”. I don’t know what this means or what you’re supposed to do in the center of the map...
so why am i killing the king moogle
Quick question. Does endwalker teaser spoil end of ShB
it is fun, and yeah, seeing what they can tolerate, and the effect of your casts is good.
Ah well. Guess I gotta wait for a while
i mean if you dont know the ending and stuff and if you dont know how its gona end
Ty
oh
shoyuld i just equip another class and finish the quest
so i get xp for another class
genius
you can only accept a quest reward if youre the same level or higher
is there any point in keep acn and cnj as gear sets once you've got sch/smn and whm?
nah
you shouldn't ever go back to acn and cnj
Someone linked me a tank guide from a bot here before about pulling, does anyone know what that is by any chance?

Is it possible to get more items from retainer quest for example it says you will get 15 of this item in 1 hours is there any way to improve this?
no
What time sub renwes usually
Lets say it is supposed to renew today
What time?
I'm thinking of dropping cause next big patch is in april i dont really have anything ti do
so im new to the game and i plan on playing summoners any tips for certain things ?
And Akhmorning.com
More general tips:
- damage over time are applied every 3 seconds
- Area of Effect spell usually becomes worthwhile when you use it on 3 or more enemies (exception exist)
Advanced tip
Ability (not the same as spell) should be used to damage enemy/enemies, even if the match up is not perfect, for example, using AOE ability on 1 enemy
Is there a website with indepth class guides and builds?
!faq balance
Is fate farm worth it now for memory farm, after the buffs?
What are the requirements to get married in the game?
be level 50 and do the level 17 msq quest "Scions of the Seventh Dawn"
I see thank you
I think I know the answer to this question but you need to have a job at 70 to get into Bozja, right?
71
Gotcha.
hi hi. I just got back into the game (like an hour ago) and decided to use a phial of fantasia for a fresh look but now I cant equip any of my whitemage gear?
are you a white mage
did you equip your soulstone so you are whm and not cnj
Well that answers that! I am a conjurer. Uh, where do I go again to switch it?
Equip you soulstone
armoury chest
thank you guys < 3
Remember to save your gear sets and use them to swap jobs
Every 3 seconds

How do I add separate times
Like I only have one that I can toggle between lt, st and et
How do i separate them
In character config, under ui and hud iirc
515 relic is better than emerald weapon, right?
should i get better armor
Depends. Are you at a level cap? (50/60/70/80) What's your ilvl? What's your level? Are you still doing msq or is this an alt job?
Do you have ironworks?
Is it before or after "The Ultimate Weapon"?
after
Get full ironworks, but don't grind to get the poetics. Just do your roulettes and spend the poetics when you would cap.
The currency for Ironworks
Ironworks should last you until level 55 msq or so
Remember, get the weapon first
i have the weapon rn
Then body > pants > rest of left side > right side
^
would anyone know how to fix unable to patch files
ok thanks
Try it again, get the numbers, and google them
anyone know what this armor set is called?
alright thank you
looks like something you'd get from pvp lol
pvp AHHHH!!!
If you still see the guy, target them and right click on their name ->Examine.
nah is a screenshot
That's an internet issue, not a XIV issue. Try closing stuff like utorrent or steam that's leeching bandwidth in the background.
thank u kind adventurer :v
yeah but i download other games at 100mb
you get it for wolf's mark the pvp currency
Hah! Nailed it.
lol sounds gucci
do I have to do all the CT quests to continue with the MSQ?
yes
Correct.
Yes
alright, thanks!
you need to complete "The light of hope"
the two after that aren't necessary
and are for the anima relic weapon
and you have to do all the 24 man raids included?
yes
ah bummer, I can see that being very stressful and time consuming
thanks for the info though
the thing I'm most scared of is my inexperience as a healer dragging down the entire raid
There's another healer in your party (3 parties of 8 with 1/2/5 composition), so healing isn't all on you.
there's almost no healing really required for CT at this point
Plus, as mentioned, Crystal Tower is very easy content.
Healing tends to be minimal (although there are exceptions).
and you're basically golden
what would be the SCH equivalent for medica 2? adloq?
indom
ah
or can just throw out a succor at the start of the fight
Or whispering dawn like off cooldown
And well done you healed all the damage
Now spam ruin
haha
You can't unsync current endgame content.
how do you edit the hotbars to look something like this? (old screenshot)
also what were even those old role actions pre-shb?
Top one is a single hotbar with teh guage over the center two spots. Rest of them are double stacked and smaller, set to either side. The blank spaces are just blank spots in the hotbar
The old role skills were Apocothesis, which gave the reduced the magic damage taken for the target...Diversion which reduced Aggro generated by 80% and Erase, which was a 90s esuna that also healed a very slight amount
you can hide the blank spots?
You can.
Character config > hotbars > hide unused slots
Mmhmm
Its how people get floating skills out in the middle of nowhere
which fate should I go to for haunting memory of dying
any in Gyr Abania
although the drop rate is terrible, so consider doing the Shadows of Mhach alliance raids for a guaranteed drop
When's maintenance again? Lost power (because Texas) and have been unable to check
was allrdy
ah thx
????
So, if I understand correctly
For the collectable I need a Unspoiled node, for Botanist?
do u not get allegan for doing mission solo
unsync dungeons don't give poetics, they only give the first time bonus once
Do these players that play bard instruments really well actually play it or let midi files play through some sort of program and plays itself?
Kinda both
When I try to play it doesnt sound so smooth, since I do it manually
Theirs sounds as if its prigrammed or smthing lol
can the ultima weapon ttrial drop anything
Depends on which collectible. Unspoiled, legendary, and ephemeral have collectibles. Some also come from regular nodes (usually the ones for custom deliveries I think).

Yeah, saw it in the Gathering logs, the first 3 trees are from Unspoiled, first Bush is from basic bush
any blu leveling guide?? 😮
If you have a friend, go kill monsters in the loch.
Basically you aren’t in a party with each other, you tag monsters with a skill, and they kill the monster
If you’re by yourself, just kill monsters at and a bit above your level
time difference needed?
No?

ok ok
I leveled mine up as each cap came out
I just spent like an hour or two hitting mobs with a fish in Azys Lla while a friend killed them to get to lvl 60
So I can’t give an accurate time
Then you go dow nthe list getting spells/doing the Blu quests
fates right? or just normal mob?
Highly recommend to get Flying Anchovy early sincer it’s your only instant cast GCD which makes it easy to tag monsters
Normal monsters
the list has the monsters
ok
im thinking of changing up my hotbar so that's it's easier to work on leveling the jobs. im NOT doing extreme raids. is there like a guide on basic hotbar setup for each job? or is that something i have to look at at the balance discord
Just make sure things are visible and you can each skills at a moments notice
AST is higher dps than sch, right?
Lower personal DPS , higher raid DPS
So if I understand, to get my collectables, I need to use Scrutiny, to get a bigger score, to trade it
you use the 3 abilities at top of the little window to get score to 1000
!faq dolcollect
Has example rotation flow charts
Ye, I'm on it, but the 3 scour thing it recommand is way to low for even the first collectable
Then you need better gear
use collectables to get better gear to get more collectables to get better gear...
I mean, it for the under 200 rotation
So I guess I need to try to use Scrutiny for now
To get the minimum score, and get better gear
pretty much
I see, ty
if you have access to them, do the Custom Deliveries
And you can only get the rewards 1 time by tier?
As many
give a ton of Scrip
as many as you have integrity
Collectibles are infinite
I mean, returning the collectables
for non-Custom Deliveries yes
as long as you have the inventory space to hold them all
Hey modders! Quick question. Is it possible to mod in replacement voice lines for your character? Like the sounds they make when they grunt or laugh, can those be modded to something different. I'm a voice actor and I think I'd be really fun if I could have my character sound like me. (Also I play as an Au'ra and none of the voices sound close to me lol)
Am I missing something or can you not use indomitable in CT because of the level sync?
@leaden ginkgo no afaik
ah okay
ive found that, as GNB, my combos and continuation activation keep not working, usually in the overworld like in FATEs, I don't think its my ping as it doesn't seem too bad in any other aspect, is there anything else this could be?
sync;d to lv 70
Are you being syncef
continuation is 71+
You're probably missed
its also my combos not working
Yeah you're missing
nah i didn't miss because the next hits of the combo go on
If your combo doesn't work then you missed
Oh, Custom deliveries are level 60
"No I'm afraid?" Is what you meant to say?
like if i hit gnashing fang savage claw will get its border but i wont get a continuation
The first ones
Which fates
So I guess I could harvest Collectables till I'm 60, or just harvest random stuff I can harvest
afaik = as far as i know
Oh oof
i feel like the 1% boost from brd is meh
oh wait i think you may be right
Welp I learned something new xD
like ur giving like 10 damage per 1k
No continuation below lv70
do the cartridge combos work different?
Since the collectables tickets gear is 58 anyway
You need to hit and deal damage to get additional effects
because it activates the next hit but i get no continuation
I guess I'm gonna suffer till I'm 58 and have enough Tickets, then it's gonna get smoother
What level are you in the fates?
so does gnashing fang just always activate savage claw even if it misses?
If it syncs you below lv70 you don't get any of the continuation moves during the cartridge combo
no its not sync
Tbh it shouldnt be activating the next combo if you miss
How many buffs do you have on you
just royal guard
🤷♂️
Usually if you miss then combos and additional effects shouldnt apply but
🤷♂️
Jank se stuff or whatever
probably, ty though
where can i learn WM
swhm? gridania
You need to get to heavensward story
oh ok thanks
To continue your job quests
ehh whats wm
bard wanderes
Wanderers minut
Where better buy Final Fantasy steam or square enix?
square enix
whichever platform you want it on
solo or with a friend? solo go to azys lla(lvl59 mobs) and with a friend go lochs(lvl69 mobs)
with a friend hehe
Then khlosuia beach
ok im here at the loch ty ty
The lv70 mobs are better
61 = kholusia?
If you're powerlevelled by a friend then go Khlosuia
The beach is extremely dense with lv70 mobs
Amh araeng entrance isn't bad either
ok ill go to the beach now ty ty
how about level penalty? hmm
and shb mob has more hp?
Lv80s murder the mob
No cause vendor gear is trash
oh wait, should i aim lv 70 or lv 80 mobs?
ok i get it now ty ty
Which is why i said khlosuia beach explicitly
ok ty ty ^.^
Only when you fully complete the grindy quesr line for it
i need the complete set?
Even then old relics are too much effort to be a functional weapon
Relics are a quest chain
ah
To upgrade it
so i dont need to do them right
alright im doing them
By then you'll be 60
Hmm is it 360 days for leonhart
for the arr ones you also need crafter if you are on free trial
Or 320
They're too much effort to be worth as a proper weapon
They're just glamour
For old relics
arlight im not doing it then
330
I might just do that haha
I really want the jacket and boots
Meh, I'll just get subs in april. My current one runs out today and I dont plan on renewing cause next big patch is in april and thats a long way to go. I currently have nothing to do in game rn and honestly got a bit bored if it😫
I have some games in backlog that needs completing, perfect time to take some break haha
Instant deaths. Or just good aoe stuff like choco meteor and blues single target rotation

where to get lv80 weapon outside of i485 resistance weapon?
From tomestones
emerald usually hehe
Or extremes yes
does tomestone weapon > i485 weapon for alt?
For tomes, you need 1k of the respective tomes to buy the 10 tokens + the tomestone items gotten by trading 7 blades from eden promise Eternity (4 from eden verse for allegory)
Allegory weapon is 490 upgradeavle to 500
So yes
Relevation is 520, upgradeable to 530 with savage
Also the Gil option of Exarchic which is i510
Brand new to ff14 and was hoping this is a discord where I can ask for help as I learn the game!
gio ahead
Go ahead
Yep, you found it. Ask away ^.^
Two probably simple and stupid questions (started today). There seems to be a lot of walking. Should I spend gil on teleporting, or is that a waste early on? Other question, should I ignore side quests for now?
Really appreciate your willingness to help!
rent a chocobo
Side quests you'll outlevel really really quickly. But if you want the storyline in them, you can do them if you want. Or save them for alts. Or for whenever
or talk to the chocobo porter, but teleport is definitely the way to go
And yes, you'll teleport around a ton, but the chocobo porter is a cheaper option, it's just not instant.
thanks!
when i started i use porter a lot, so i could afk and do something else xD
I come from wow, eso and gw2. Used to a map completion and am a completionist that does all discovery points and quests.
Is that not a thing here? And just randomly do side quests as I need exp. or is it a goal to 100% a map?
Any important Quests will have a different coloured marker. That indicates it unlocks something like a job, dungeon, etc. So if you want, just pay attention to the different icons and colours, and do those
there's a system called aether current starting from lv 60
you don't have to worry about it now ^.^
Or if money is tight, walk to your destination as a miner/botanist and harvest any node that you pass by. Sell on market board
if you like vista, FF14 has some. For ARR vista which is time and weather sensitive, you can choose do it hard way on foot, or wait until you get flying mount
There’s no achievement for doing 100% of sidequests in a zone
Awesome. Thanks so much for the help.
Anytime!
I’ll use teleport and focus on main quests for now.
You don't have to 100% the zones.
You can if that's your thing.
But there's literally so many things to do that grinding side quests is only worth on an alt and/or if questing is your jam.
Hell, there are so many sidequests, you could probably level an extra two jobs and keep it up with your main level if you were clearing zones. Probably more than two >.>
Just make sure you do the purple quests, as they unlock various forms of content
Haha very true.
I remember trying to do all the sidequest content back during ARR. I still have quests in some zones I haven't done, there's just a ton of them.
waste your time wisely 😄
Haha
u can use side-quest and routlette to level up alt jobs
Yeah. Seems a little much in this game. Was more applicable in eso and gw2 where there was a check list per map.
and for first class, it is recommended to be healer or tanker, or the wait time gonna be ugly
It's because this game isn't designed around having X number of quests for a zone because you're going through it 20 times across alts etc. You can play one character here and level all the jobs, do all the quests, etc etc.
of course you can play DPS, but be prepared for some side actvities while waiting
So there's just a metric done of extra content. And some of the storyline is quite swell in them.
main story tends to refer old side quests from time to time 😄
though mostly just minor mention, like you help this guy, so when you meet him again, he recognizes you
I went with black mage. Have always enjoyed a caster
Just don't feel obliged to do everything you see as soon as you see it.
But enjoy endgame raiding so a little worried about issues with mobility reading online
What's the most time-efficient way to level crafting past 50? Leves/GCs/Ishgard/Collectibles?
And honestly, queuetimes aren't bad right now for most content up to 60 for DPS.
Nah, you'll be fine as a BLM. You learn exactly how long you can stand in the bad, and then usually just Atherial Manipulation your butt over to a healer and continue pew pewing
@wispy falcon leves are fatest and most expensive
blm doesnt have mobility issues
it has the most movement abilities of any caster
people just dont know how to use them
BLM has like 6 GCDs of free movement every minute if you manage your stuff
Yep. Manipulate over that way, between the lines back away
Thanks so much for the welcome and overwhelming support! Greatly appreciated!
Aetherial Manipulation is also basically teleporting to party members
That's a lot of movement
not to mention a teleport with like a 2s cooldown
wut
can you learn 2 skills in 1 dungeon (blu)?
!action aetherial manipulation
Yes
10s cooldown
is HW really only about 100 MSQs?
What is open windows in settings?
Is it just me or is that a reverse Rescue
Basically yes.
damn
it is advised to keep repeatable quests for Resistance activated so that you can earn Dying memories all time. Do I have to grind two or more weapons at once? Or I can do the quest once, then accept it again for another weapon?
are they much longer than the ARR quests or is it just a short expansion?
ARR is the longest
Nothing in this game is longer than ARR quests
More cutscenes, less quests
what are some important blu skills to copy beside ram and dragon breath from cutter's dry?
All together from Lv 1 to the final quest 'Before the Dawn' is somewhere between 240 to 250 MSQs
You can only do one weapon per step at a time. So you'll do one and move on, then put another weapon on the previous step, etc.
If you want to do the Masked Carnivale you want basically every skill.
Song of Torment, rose of Destruction, moon flute, all primal.spells, Magic Hammer. Tingle + triple trident, bristle and whistle, devour, good nuke ability and something like sonix boom or sharpened knife for single target
wait are you telling me I'm more than halfway done with this leveling grind already? phew
huh I can only learn 1 skill from cutter's dry
I thought every expansion was as long as ARR
Nope
so I will need to do four weapons at once to activate all four grindy quests?
It means you cant que for things normally
can't learn the ram's one
Where are you at
It means it can’t do all the normal dailies and such
I just finished ARR
Just finish base ARR
The Ultima Weapon or Before the Dawn?
before the dawn
Yes you can. You just need to make sure he casts it before you kill him.
You're exactly where I'm at
I got the Heavensward logo for entering Ishgard proper, attuned to the Aetheryte and went to bed
Are you level synced?
yeah
It leys you finish Heavensward
Free Trial goes all the way to the end of Heavensward
I swear I'm starting to feel the sleep deprivation kick in, did this in like 3-4 days
You can't go into Stormblood though
why
I got nothing better to do
Then you didn't see him use the aoe ice spell before you killed him. You would have learned it while level synced.
You'll see an emote saying "The Ram's eyes glow blue" before he uses it.
I see2 o_o
or you can just look at his skill cast bar. If ram, get out. If dragon, hug in
Yeah, I'm just pointing out it's not the same as the ice frontal cone attack.
does the MSQ inherently over-level you? I haven't really done anything besides MSQ and fishing and my scholar is at 58 at before the dawn 
So you can't see ice and think "Got it, murderface time"
Sounds about right
Without Road to 70 I outleveled the MSQ all the way up to when I got to 'Operation Archon'
ohh, I forgot about road to 70, that explains it
Road to 70 is disgusting
These days, yeah. You can pretty much just do your MSQ and Job quests, and with the dungeons etc you'll usually be on par or higher. Moreso with Road to 70

FC with exp bonus makes it even more disgusting
With all possible bonuses (including preorder earring), you can get up to something like 300% xp buff.
can you get one of those ear-rings from pre-ordering 6.0?
I'm sorry, but what
We don't know yet.
Yo, anyone noticing issues of after the patch, steam is requesting to re-download the game?
6.0 pre-order and CE items haven't been announced.
ah, I see
the bozja earrings are nice
Also, can you unlock Dancer once you have one DoW/DoM at 60 or do you have to do the MSQ up to 60?
(too bad I already got everything to 80 by the time they came out)
@flat yew any DoW/DoM at 60
nice
And have the expansion
is dancer worth picking up?
All jobs are worth picking up
Same...guess we'll use it for sage + other job 
Sorry for interrupting. But is anyone a PS player/gotten platinum for PS? I'm just curious where I can see the leve quest and fishing requirements in game. It's like 1k fishing and leve quests and I'm curious what my total is I guess
there's been quite a few yes
Alright
Y'all
Where is the
to unlock Ul'dah's housing district
I don't think I've bothered to unlock it

Aura where's the quest at
In the in-game achievements window, most achievements have in game trackers that you can watch. You might have to do some math but it should give you a decent idea of where you stand.
Road to 70 is 100%, Armory is 100% (under level 71), Earring is 30%, Brand New ring is 30% (until 30), Rested is 50%, Food is 3%, FC is 10%, so the total is actually 323% until 30, and 293% after.
That is
Actually gross
Isn't there a wheel action for exp from the FC that's 15%?
Is it 15%? I thought 10% was the max, but I could be wrong.
@gloomy ice Yea definitely. I guess my main curiosity was whether field and trade leve quests counted to the 1k or i have to 1k one LOL. Thank you.
I used field leves, yeah. Any and all types of levequest count cumulatively.
Plus... Chain EXP bonus.
Hey guys, I’ve done something to one of my hotbars, suddenly it had no skills on it, then when I put it back I switched to another job the skills from the first job were still there. How do you disable hotbar sharing?
Chain xp is situational. I was only counting long-term
Esc Character Options, Hotbars on the lower left side, Sharing up top
Oh nice, thank you so much for confirming @gloomy ice. One more question how do they count the fishing one? Do you know? That sounds like a stupid question, I know but I'm honestly not sure how they count going fishing 1k times. I'm assuming ocean fishing didn't really count
Is that character configuration?
Chain exp + Road to 70 + Armoury bonus + Brand-new Ring + Well-Rested + FC bonus = bullshit gains in dungeons
Ah the option isn’t checked as shared for the hotbar I’m using x
The wording is a little funny on that one. "Going fishing" means casting your line and catching a fish. Using the Mooch skill doesn't count. Rather it counts as only one, even if you catch another fish.
Literally was getting 500% bonus exp in a dungeon
Does anyone know what pants these are?
Try hitting "Shift + 1"
Shift one ok I’ll try that
Is that an NPC or a player?
player
You can examine them to check their gear
from the zepla video that came out recently
Ah
Looks like one of the monk artifact pants from the quest coffers.
Those are either the arachne gaskins of striking or the pagos gaskins
