#

@scarlet arrow I havent done any LOL

scarlet arrow
#

what level is your MSQ?

leaden ginkgo
#

49

#

I am 48

#

I didnt know there were other dungeons that you have to unlock seperetly

#

Thanks for the headsup

scarlet arrow
#

so most pertinent for you right now is Aurum Vale, which can be unlocked with a quest in Vesper Bay called Going for Gold

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah I looked up but I cant see any quest named like that

#

Ill do the blue quest and maybe it comes next

ebon plaza
#

I have GNB pretty high level and I am fairly used to and able for its rotation I'm keen on trying DRK knight now too, is it harder than GNB rotation and how easy would it be to get used to it?

green grail
#

gnb has the most complex rotation so the other tanks should be pretty easy to learn

timid geyser
#

gnb has a lot of buttons

green grail
#

drk only has one combo so you spam 123 most of the time, gauge "management" for bloodspiller and living shadow, mp management aka keeping 3k mp for TBN and using the rest for damage, and pressing some other buttons on cooldown sometimes

#

probably the easiest tank, imo at least

ebon plaza
#

Nice, the transition from gnb to drk will be pretty good then

upper pendant
#

does the free campaign allow ppl to continue the msq up to 5.4?

faint flare
#

If you own Shadowbringers yes

manic flare
#

how long is the free campaign?

strange coral
#

4 days

#

Or rather, you can play for 4 days, but the offer is available until March 31

leaden ginkgo
#

hi

#

for that 4 days

#

do they need to be on my friendlist?

#

or do they just download the game and pray?

#

play

strange coral
#

It has nothing to do with friend lists. They have to own the game and have not been active the last 30 days.

leaden ginkgo
#

ok nice!

#

last time they it was 90 days and they had to be in friendlist

#

idk why its different this taime

strange coral
#

That was the callback campaign I think

leaden ginkgo
#

Pls i need help

#

How can i play with a friend ? We have both the free Trial

#

how to unlock brooding mother side quest?

#

that unlocks the beast tribe?

strange coral
leaden ginkgo
#

oh i dont have someone

strange coral
#

Ask in a populated area, like Limsa. Go to the aetherite and just use chat

strange coral
#

That page includes the unlock quests, despite the title

leaden ginkgo
#

ok thx

#

And how i can add friend?

#

im new sry

remote lintel
#

you can't on trial

leaden ginkgo
#

Then how someone invite me?

remote lintel
#

you can be invited to a party without friending

leaden ginkgo
#

ok nice

#

play someone yet and can make a party for me?

ocean acorn

Just got to the Futures Rewritten patch. Absolutely loved the story up to here. Just 1 question. After i finish the story how should i go about endgame ? What should i do first etc? I come from wow and have no idea how endgame here works (Only played the story from ARR-STORMBLOOD and didnt do the endgame in those expansions)

brisk scroll
ocean acorn
#

What is eden ?

brisk scroll
#

the shadowbringers raid teir

ocean acorn
#

Oh okay

brisk scroll
#

get all your normals done to progress story

#

then do the current raid teir which is Eden's Promise on Savage

ocean acorn
#

Is there a questline or something to unlock the raids ?

brisk scroll
#

There is

civic flare
#

Could someone please explain how end game gear progression works? Do trials get you prepared for raids? Are raids played one at a time until a tier gear set is achieved to move into the next one? Do trials and raids mix? Etc?

ocean acorn
#

But i assume i need to finish the whole futures rewritten story right ?

brisk scroll
ocean acorn
#

Oh okay, thanks for the info @brisk scroll

delicate field
#

are tomestone of poetics completely uesless once you get gear higher than ilevel 130?

civic flare
#

@brisk scroll linear meaning one trial at a time followed by One raid at a time?

brisk scroll
#

The entire teir can be comleted in full crafted fully melded gear. The Trial is like a side grade that can help with a bit of extra power. Trials are not married to raids. Tomes help you get BiS or a little extra oomph to help you clear

scarlet arrow
brisk scroll
#

and BLU BiS

delicate field
#

@scarlet arrow im in the pillars/foundation, is that where i can get new gear using it?

brisk scroll
#

Idlyshire

#

for level 60 stuff

#

Rhalgars Reach

#

for 70 stuff

scarlet arrow
#

there is also a vendor near the ishgard aetheryte for 60 gear

delicate field
#

oh are both of those in HW?

brisk scroll
#

Ildleshire is HW

#

Rhalgars Reach is SB

#

Stormbutt

#

I dont know what content you're doing

delicate field
brisk scroll
#

IT appears when you comeplete 3.0 msq

delicate field
brisk scroll
#

I think

scarlet arrow
#

if it's accessible to you it will have a blue symbol on your minimap

brisk scroll
#

I think you need 3.0 msq completed though

scarlet arrow
#

but yes you likely need to complete the 3.0 MSQ

delicate field
#

all right ill keep progressing msq

twilit arch
#

you need to complete the 3.0 msq to see the ishgard poetics vendor

delicate field
#

thx

twilit arch
#

idyllshire poetic vendor opens earlier

#

since it just requires you to enter idyllshire to access it

delicate field
#

can i get there from pillars/foundation?

twilit arch
#

no

delicate field
#

or need to quest or something

scarlet arrow
#

you'll get there through the MSQ

brisk scroll
#

Idlyshire is blocked by story

twilit arch
#

You get there via msq

scarlet arrow
#

level 58-ish

delicate field
#

im capped on poetics.. ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

remote lintel
#

!faq poetics

zinc orbitBOT
fervent oar
#

Say, is there a list of the bot's commands for looking up stuff like this?

brisk scroll
undone lily
#

Hello. I have unlocked my first relic weapon and have the quest to collect atma by participating in FATE events. Is it worth doing now or should i focus on post ARR MSQ and work my way towards HW content?

twilit arch
#

can just do !faq in #kupo-bot-spam to get a list of all available faqs

fervent oar
#

Oh, okay. Thanks.

#

Well, okay, did that, but man, there's, like, 40 pages, and you have to go through them one at a time. Any type of spreadsheet listed somewhere, does anyone know?

grizzled rover
#

what is the point in getting all crafts level 5

strange coral
#

If you mean crafters, there's nothing special about level 5 that I can remember

little swift
#

I think you misunderstood the advice given to you @grizzled rover. I'm pretty sure it was told.to you that you should keep all your crafters leveled together. And leveling them in increments of 5

#

Getting all of them to 5. Then all to 10. Then all to 15. Etc

grizzled rover
#

ah

#

why that tho

green grail
little swift
#

And keeping gatherers 5 levels above all your crafters for self sufficiencu

faint flare
#

You level them equally

little swift
#

Leveling them equally means you can make all the materials you need for a given craft

#

Yourself

#

Saving yourself money

worthy basin
#

bcause some of the crafters needed the mats of other crafters

grizzled rover
#

ohh

#

which craft is best for a bard

little swift
#

Again, all of them

#

And at the same time none, since you're never obligated to do crafting

grizzled rover
#

ok

#

thanks

hidden agate
#

If I've only leveled Miner and Goldsmith, how can I earn Yellow Scrips? (I'm broke, and nothing i've put on the market has sold, so i can't just buy ingredients.) I'm looking for something I can craft using only ingredients i've gathered as a miner

strange coral
#

For miner, gather collectibles for the scrip exchange and custom delivery npcs. Goldsmith is a little harder because you need to craft collectibles, which will very likely require materials crafted by other crafting classes.

cinder patio
#

Hey, so I had a question: Is it against the rules to buy/sell Free Companies for in-game currency? And does it make a difference if you are buying one for the house or not?

#

So like not any real money, but purely for gil. Is that against the rules or is it allowed?

warm granite
#

can we post questions about payments here too? :o

little swift
#

Yes

little swift
#

It would be like trading gil for a crafter to make you something

#

As long as both parties consented

hidden agate
#

another question: How can I gear my miner up (level 71 with level 62 gear currently) with no scrips and no gil?

cinder patio
#

Ah okay, so it should be okay then. I am mostly wondering because getting a house is such a pain, that I am considering just paying for a higher value to buy a FC with a house if possible. I don't have enough gil yet probably so not really an option yet, but I wanted to know if it is even an option to consider

#

Thanks!

little swift
#

@cinder patio it might be just prudent to be patient for 6.1 ishgard housing

rough fossil
#

How long does it take to build a house? Is there a way to tell if a plot was relocated versus someone bought and built immediately?

little swift
#

People will move to it and old plots will open up

cinder patio
hidden agate
#

I don't need EXP. I need Gear.

little swift
little swift
#

Do your custom deliveries

hidden agate
#

I don't have scrips.

little swift
#

Start getting some

strange coral
rough fossil
#

Aight thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

is there poetic gear

#

for level 75

brisk scroll
#

nope

strange coral
#

No, it stops at 70 currently

brisk scroll
#

the 70 stuff will laste you

#

a while though

hidden agate
#

I can't craft anything without ingredients obtained from other crafters, and my mining gear is outdated. I have no reason to believe I can gather anything that can be used to obtain scrips... this is my dilemma.

little swift
#

You can gather lower level stuff for a lower scrip payout

#

And custom deliveries are a thing as well which reward a hefty scrip amount

#

Those are separated by level range so you can always do a lower level npc delivery

#

For scrips

delicate field
#

!faq scrips

zinc orbitBOT
#
Error!

No tag named scrips exists, Kupo!

tardy patio
#

Anyone on excal happen to know when the next firmament concerted works begins?

little swift
#

Ie do level 60 collectables/ deliveries until you have enough to gear to 70

#

!faq scripunlock @delicate field

zinc orbitBOT
little swift
#

!faq dolcollect @hidden agate

zinc orbitBOT
little swift
#

Should get you started

strange coral
little swift
#

Its not as big of a problem as you think it is loki

strange coral
#

(click the mining tab)

little swift
#

Just needs a bit of time

delicate field
#

can you make a good incoming with just gathering or crafting is really where it's at?

little swift
#

Both are fine but crafting has the added advantage of making glamour that sells well

delicate field
#

it dropped in a dungeon but no idea what to do with it lol

strange coral
#

Not exactly. It's an armor token, you can trade them for armor which at the point is really only used for glamour.

#

Item level 90 job gear specifically

delicate field
#

oh i see it on the wiki, thx ill go exchange it

strange coral
#

(Which you get from the level 50 job quests anyway)

twilit patrol
#

do i need to clear crystal tower in order to get raid alliance roulette?

warm granite
#

I am not quite sure what has happened. I have 2 days left and after subscribing for 30 days I used the cancel sub option so it wouldn't renew on it's own. Now I used the card one to buy 30 days, it said i have two left and this email came :o

strange coral
warm granite
#

Well I canceled it later anyway and now I am not sure if the website remembered my past card info or sth broke xD

twilit patrol
open ember
#

The game forces you to do it

strange coral
twilit patrol
#

crystal tower is not mandatory tho

open ember
#

Can't really skip it like the old days

strange coral
#

It is

open ember
#

It is

twilit patrol
#

i mean it was under

#

blue quest line

strange coral
#

So is the hard mode primals, MSQ still makes you do them

twilit patrol
#

i mean i galdly would do the 24 main raid but nobody is doing them at this point...

strange coral
#

Everyone does them, because they are required and the easiest alliance raids. They are the most unlocked alliance raids.

twilit patrol
#

lol the moment i wrote it , i got a q ๐Ÿ˜„

#

but still 25 min ๐Ÿ˜

#

as a tank

open ember
#

Well you're a tank of course it takes the longest

strange coral
#

Because there are only 3 tank spots total.

flat hare
#

so does FC generate gil? or if someone deposited gil will it show in activity ?

twilit patrol
#

wait what? ๐Ÿ˜„

open ember
#

Healer and dps queues are significantly shorter

twilit patrol
#

i queued up as a tank thinking i would get faster

#

๐Ÿ˜

open ember
#

Not for alliance raids

twilit patrol
#

๐Ÿ˜„

open ember
#

That's the only time queues arent instant for tanks

#

You have 3 tanks, 6 healers & 15 dps

#

In an alliance raid

strange coral
little swift
#

Itll be shown in the fc chest history

flat hare
#

hmmm okay

#

omfg thank you @little swift

#

im joining another server and someone put 5mil in the company chest . I want to make sure they get it back lol

#

also thank you for responding @strange coral lol

hidden agate
#

Honestly, i kinda feel like I just keep running into walls as a crafter/gatherer... I have no income, and hoped that crafting and gathering would change that but it's just made it worse.

little swift
#

You needed to level all of them together

raven burrow
#

is DR a weekly kind of thing ? and is there loot ?

little swift
#

Picking 1 at a time makes it tougher on yourself

#

You can do dr as much as you want

faint flare
#

Dr is spammable

little swift
#

But there's a weekly quest that awards gold coins and 12k mettle

raven burrow
#

what about goodies ?

faint flare
#

You get primarily silver coins but it can rarely drop a mount, hair and barding

#

All of which go for ALOT

raven burrow
#

ah okay

hidden agate
#

Hindsight is 20/20. Nobody told me that when i started.

faint flare
#

The hair alone is like 20mil

raven burrow
#

does it reward mettle per clear too ?

faint flare
#

No

open ember
#

No

raven burrow
#

hmm ok

#

is there any use for mettle after rank 15 ?

faint flare
#

Nope

open ember
#

Everytime YOU die in DR you lose mettle

faint flare
#

Unlock savage

#

Then its fucking useless

#

Outside of needing 72k for the weekly

raven burrow
#

lul k

faint flare
#

But thats easy to get

open ember
#

They're adding a new zone later so it may increase the rank cap

hidden agate
#

someone here told me to do custom deliveries but... i literally cannot. I have none of the ingredients needed to craft them, nor any idea how to obtain them, but i highly doubt they can be obtained through mining.

faint flare
#

Buy them

open ember
#

You get from the salavger next to the scrip exchange

faint flare
#

From vendors

hidden agate
#

I have no gil.

#

12k gil, total.

open ember
#

Do some roulettes

faint flare
#

Thats enough

modest igloo
#

maps are also pretty strong

#

only need msq and lvl 80 combat class

little swift
#

You get money back when you turn them in too

young lintel
#

Is there a website that allows you to preview the paintings so I don't have to buy like 50 of them to see them? XD

does your mount regain flight at some point in HW?

raven sage

You have to grab aether currents in each map from hw on to be able to fly

wheat pulsar
#

If I use crafting/gathering to make profit, as opposed to gear/feed myself, would it be more profitable to sell raw materials, or crafted armor/weapons/food?

#

AKA: Sell the copper ore, or the copper ingot

modest igloo
#

depends on the market

wheat pulsar
#

ah right

twilit arch
#

generally, the crafted items will sell more

#

but as said, depends on the market

#

just have to do your research, look at the sell history

#

raw materials may sell for less than the crafted item but sell more often

frank goblet
#

Logged in for the first time since November and my character is gone? I'm on ps5 when I last played it was on ps4. Any chance this has something to do with it? Really don't want to start over

faint flare

Make sure you're on the right data centre and server

strange coral
#

Make sure you have the right datacenter and server selected

wheat pulsar
#

What level does ARR end?

strange coral
#

Supposed to be 50, but you'll likely be over that by the time you reach HW

faint flare
#

50

wheat pulsar
#

Right, and the overarching story of it, how is it? I've heard ARR is just a slug to get through, before you reach what people consider to be the best part of the game

leaden ginkgo

Is it normal that I've just reached 80 and I barely started Stormblood haha

Okay that worked! Glad it was that simple, thanks! Had just completed arr in nov, was taking a break before heavensward.

Does Teamcraft, when you enter a modified ship part into your list, include the mats for an original ship part? Say, you want to make a C+ bridge, does it include the mats for a C bridge?

civic spoke

is there a good way to level a dps class from 70-80?

modest igloo
#

Bozjan Southern Front is decent from 71-80

crystal bluff
#

Bozja

civic spoke
#

any estimation on how long it might take?

#

Same leveling rules apply

#

Roulettes > dungeon spam/bozja

#

Beast tribes

#

Fates

civic spoke
#

which are the shb beast tribes?

#

the fae?

little swift
#

Just pixies for combat

delicate field
#

beast tribes give exp? from the daily?

civic spoke
#

i've never done bozja though

little swift
#

Yes beast tribes give quests every day which give exp

#

Bozja leveling is going around doing every skirmish and ce you can get yourself to

delicate field
#

is there a FAQ on all daily stuff we can do?

can you get a relic for every class you have level or can you only choose one/a certain number of them?

#

how to make gear go to armory

#

rather than shitty item box

open coral
#

The default setting is for gear to go to your armory. If you didn't change that setting, then it's likely that the section for whatever gear is going to your inventory is full.

i did change it

how do i fix plz

gear for lv 50/60/70, glamour, soil for gardening/selling

#

old relic materials

leaden ginkgo
#

there are like 3 tomestnes

#

poetics and 2 other ones

#

allegory or w.e its called

#

and the other one

open coral
#

Poetics are the ones for buying leveling gear (50/60/70). Allegory are the second most recent and can be used to buy Crystarium gear - useful since they don't have a weekly cap limit.

remote lintel

allegory was the old endgame gear

#

revelation is the new endgame gear

There's a limit on how many scrips you can hold. So you might have to spend them as you go.

You guys are on the last set of fates

First of three yes. The next two happen without the progress bar. They come in succession.

Yes you missed the fate. Lol

I guess this means I can grab lunch then

Oh cool thank you

What are good duties to grind out Tankless Job Achievements? Can I solo some duties?

remote lintel
#

old ARR EXs

past sinew
#

Seriously? I just do those over and over?

remote lintel
#

you can

modest igloo
#

garuda EX is like 30 secs if you have 510 gear

past sinew
#

Well, I'll start with PLD first. Level 80 and almost BiS on fending, so yeah

modest igloo
#

to get the second stage you need level 61+ duties

past sinew
#

Self heals would also be nice, you wouldn't believe how low old EX's can reduce your HP to.

remote lintel
#

ARR EXs barely make a dent in your hp

#

especially as a tank

modest igloo
#

i barely take any dmg as MCH

raven burrow
#

hey , if i use a glam on an item , then cast glam on a new item and use the previously glammed item , will the new item retain the original glam or the added glam for the item used ?

remote lintel
#

original

raven burrow
#

ugh

remote lintel
#

actually

#

you cant even do that

#

you would have to remove the glam first

raven burrow
#

shame that i cant keep my ninja relic glow if i want to progress the relic

#

the current last step for shb ninja relic looks awful

agile laurel
#

well you could probably buy a replica

raven burrow

the replica has no glow

can't you just put the relic on one of your glam plates?

#

then you can re-apply it whenever

raven burrow
#

then i cant progress the quest

raven sage
#

You can take it out of the dresser

#

Once it's on a plate

raven burrow
#

really ?

raven sage
#

yes

raven burrow
raven sage

Just save the plate and don't touch it until the replica you want comes out

raven burrow

thats exactly what i need , thanks :D

How many professions can I have... like weaving and botany etc

raven sage
#

all of them

modest igloo

tell me if it works out, i need to check that again

raven sage

It does lol

#

I do it all the time

vivid solar
#

All of them????

raven sage
#

Yep you can be everything

vivid solar
#

Which ones should I focus on as a white mage

modest igloo
#

all of them tbh

raven sage
#

Yeah one isn't really better than the others

#

And it's less of a pain to level them all together

vivid solar
#

Should I start working on them early or wait till late game

raven burrow
#

you either do all , or none

scarlet arrow
#

you also don't need to pursue any crafting classes at all

raven burrow
scarlet arrow
#

it's completely optional

raven sage
#

Yeah you can start them whenever you want

#

But it's entirely up to you

vivid solar
#

Okay that makes me feel better

scarlet arrow
#

you will be able to stay geared without touching a single crafiting class

vivid solar
#

I will probably wait till late game to mess with them then

mighty flame
#

weird question but is there a way to know market board placement in new ishgard plot? do they place a placeholder or some sort in?

scarlet arrow
#

that's likely the easiest solution

vivid solar
#

Iโ€™m on jenova. Is anyone in a fc I can join?

delicate field
#

I've been reading some guides, says for summoner you can stack bio 2 and bio 1 at the same time. is that something that was patched out?

delicate field
#

does tri disaster obsolete the casting of bio/miasma?

remote lintel
#

no

strange coral
#

No, because it has a cooldown

remote lintel
#

you need to manually cast bio/miasma when its on cd

full latch
#

When I switch to borderless. does it affect my games resolution at all?

delicate field
#

oh 50 seconds, that's long

remote lintel
#

borderless just makes it your monitor's native resolution

scarlet arrow
#

bio automatically upgrades to bio ii and bio iii

slate arrow
#

@delicate field it's shorter than it seems since dreadwyrm trance resets the CD

#

So you can use it 3 times every 2 minutes assuming your CDs line up

#

do you plan on clearing the tier cheems

stable hinge
#

if I clear e9 and e10 this week does going back into e9 affect loot for e11?

#

or am I good to go?

robust crow
#

because I doubt that the difference between clearing and not clearing is going to be your axe

stable hinge
#

I remember something about needing to clear in order

remote lintel
#

going back doesnt affect further floors

stable hinge
#

Thanks

remote lintel
#

but you wont get loot

prime flume
remote lintel
#

for e9s

robust crow
#

then you don't need the tome axe

stable hinge
#

even with 1 chest?

prime flume
#

so emerald is alright?

#

until i have eden axe

remote lintel
#

i mean the most other people can get is 1 chest, but YOU wont get anything

robust crow
#

that's 1k revelation you could have spent for another class

stable hinge

whats/wheres bozjian silver n gold coins used for ?

stable hinge
#

why am I here then xD

remote lintel
#

@raven burrow for the law order gear in gangos

ofc the augmented tome is better but it's very unlikely to be exactly the difference between clearing and not clearing

Does anyone know of some "guide" to understand the dancer class? I picked it up because it looked interesting but even after reading the tooltips it seems to make little to no sense to me

For example the tank role quest is relevant during the 5.1 post dungeon cutsceneb

#

@flat yew

#

!faq dncguide

remote lintel
#

dancer uses procs

#

you do the red skill firs tthen the blue skill

#

they have a chance to proc the yellow and greeen ones

and you use your dance on cd

which is just dance dance revolution

Super quick relic question because googling never gives you a straight answer. How many timeworn artifacts do you get from DR? Trying to decide if I want to do that or PoTD

obsidian patio
#

1

old vessel
#

wait that's it? For how long that takes? ew

obsidian patio
#

DR is likely to be faster than POTD grinding since people are starting to be better and better at it.

#

Cleave the discord mod here managed to get a twelve minute clear of DR

POTD pub runs always have a decent chance of failing but with DR you just need a few people.coordinating to just make the boss go brrrrt dead

I fully expect people to be able to clear DR in less than 30 minutes if they make use of essences and lost actions

not in bozja

im sure the one in gangos had these 2 windows only aswell

ill check after castrum

I have a question about the samurai DoT ability higanbana, if I apply higanbana and then I get a damage buff from party members or if I apply jinpu (self damage buff) to myself does the DoT that is already applied benefit from these damage bonuses or do I need to reapply the DoT?

open coral

You'd need to reapply the dot

is it possible to remove materia from gear without destroying the materia?

obsidian patio
#

Only if itโ€™s grade 6 and lower

#

7 and 8 always have a chance of failure

delicate field
#

oh and failure destroys it?

forest sage
#

destroys the materia yeah

#

anything under 6 is guaranteed, over it'll sometimes fail, but materias aren't too expensive if you're not overmelding

#

when you're reporting a player, what is RMT?

forest sage
#

real money trading

delicate field

I got a bunch of level 3 and 4 from the msq, I guess i'll put them on and take them out when i get new gear

bots that spam gold selling ads and stuff

open coral
#

Real Money Trading - exchanging irl money for in game goods or services

civic spoke
#

i was trying to report someone in the raid finder but that was the only option available to me

forest sage
#

you have to open the support menu then open a ticket

#

you can't easily like right click someone and report them sadly

civic spoke
#

oh :/

#

they should just add a quick option for people who are toxic/bad mouthing

#

hated that crap so much in LoL and wow

forest sage
#

well you can still report them, just takes a bit more effort

civic spoke
#

i really don't feel like going through the whole chat log on ps4 just to report one or two people lol

gleaming finch
#

Do you think mch or dnc is easier to play? I've been leveling both along with a warrior, all three are pretty easy right now in the 50-60 range, but I know classes tend to open up a lot later on and I have zero experience with any of them end-game

open coral
#

DNC

remote lintel
#

theyre both easy

civic spoke
#

dnc is extremely easy

#

this game does not want to make unlocking raids easy

open coral
#

?

#

It is easy to unlock raids though?

civic spoke
#

going through multiple questlines can get a bit tedioius lol

#

and i like that they add story and context, but at the same time, they can kind of drag on at times

remote lintel
#

raids are 1 questline

forest sage
#

well it's like everything in this game, they really want people to do the stories, but the actual unlocks are easy, just yeah can take a while

#

especially if you're going through the entire thing at once(like if you were to unlock current eden, it's a fair while since you have to clear the previous 2 tiers with all the quests inbetween)

civic spoke
#

it's definitely not a bad thing, but i'm weighing in the negative side to it as well

Salutes, was any event finished days ago?

I have asked why Complete Edition now appears in amazon for 20$, and some told me cause maybe an event?

the complete edition was on sale

how do i get healer thats astro????

They told me square enix knows the date periodo of that offer

remote lintel
#

for trusts

leaden ginkgo
#

im talking about for the trust system

open coral
#

Oh

remote lintel
#

if its on msq then he needs to be one of the characters there

leaden ginkgo
#

is it random who is there?

remote lintel
#

if not on msq you get him automatically

#

no

#

its story based

leaden ginkgo
#

cuz i only have whm and fking scholar

remote lintel
#

about whos with you at the time

open coral
#

There's no WHM for trust?

signal shore
#

what jobs would you consider the most difficult in terms of decision making and optimisation (they tend to be the most satisfying to play imo) rather than pure execution (muscle memory)?

remote lintel
#

scholar?

#

black mage prob

leaden ginkgo
#

NVM I think its healer

#

astro

#

i might be dumb

#

is g raha tia good ai

open coral
#

Yes

remote lintel
#

theyre all the same ai

civic spoke
#

blm is kinda easy though

remote lintel
#

if youre good at using all its movement skills yeah

civic spoke
#

ley lines, fire 4, fire 4, fire 4, (foul), transpose, thunder 4, blizzard four, tranpose, rinse and repeat

remote lintel
#

i wasnt talking about the rotation

signal shore
#

yeah but I'm not talking about rotation

civic spoke
#

ohhh

#

yeah, blm movement is a little hard unless you have your two movement abilities

remote lintel
#

blm is a turret caster in fights where you need to move like every 3-4 secs

civic spoke
#

one that transports you to your ley lines and another to a party member

remote lintel
#

you can get like 6 GCDs of free movement if you plan it out

forest sage
#

also if you slidecast you can move a fair amount of distance if you have enough time

signal shore
#

how about the melee classes

forest sage
#

for example repositionning for an upcoming mechanic during a lull/raidwide/tank mechanic

signal shore
#

I feel like monk and ninja arent really that hard in the decision making avenue

remote lintel
#

melee classes dont have decision making

#

theyre just muscle memory

signal shore
#

samurai is giving me the most problems though

forest sage
#

Samurai has some weirdness with their rotations

civic spoke
#

sam?

forest sage
#

where you have to dump some Sen based on your skillspeed

#

to keep it inline

little swift
#

saying melees have no decision making isn't quite accurate

remote lintel
#

they have low amounts of it

#

compared to like black mage

little swift
#

i wouldn't say that either their entire rotations are based around melee range and positional use

forest sage
#

I'd melee is often more about timings, knowing how to roll your GCD and how long you can greed before having to get out of aoes and such

little swift
#

being able tomove correctly is just a fundamental of play

#

rather than specific to casters

remote lintel
#

positionals are just scooting left and right?

forest sage
#

like if you look at a good melee doing savage versus an average one, you'll see there's a ton of optimization with good knowledge of the fight(due to most aoes being unmarked)

little swift
#

not necessarily just scooting left and right

forest sage
#

E9S is a good example with wide/anti air optimization

little swift
#

also knowing when to be max melee

#

how much gcd time you can give up

#

how to shift rotation to fit fight

signal shore
#

you are speaking about melee generally and not a specific class here right?

little swift
#

another example of this, for ninja in particular would be titan unreal in the opener

#

if you use assassinate too early in your first trick window

#

it'll be during the first weight of the land

#

and you'll kill yourself to it

#

being animation locked

forest sage
#

BLM doesn't have too much decision making either btw, it's more about planning your movement in advance, you're not gonna decide randomly "oh now I'm gonna change my rotation", the rotation is fairly strict and you are mostly sticking to it, while floating a xeno for forced random movement or whatever

#

you do have to plan around the longer movements, see how you can line up swift and triple for them

civic spoke
#

i really would like to play a healer in a raid, but that gives me so much anxiety lol

remote lintel
#

decision making doesnt necessarily mean a sudden decision

#

when i said decision making i was including planning

forest sage
#

and if you need to sharp a thunder and keep it or whatever, but that's planning, not so much decision making, fights follow the same pattern so you can more or less plan for it all

little swift
#

no one is saying that cerb

civic spoke
#

i can heal in dungeons and trials, but raid healing kind of scares me

forest sage
#

well everyone has to plan their fights

signal shore
little swift
#

melees don't have the luxury of hitting the boss from wherever the hell they want

forest sage
#

you also have to plan your true north usage, since it's somewhat limited

little swift
#

so they have to know exactly how much they do before backing out, how much to give up etc

remote lintel
#

that's planning, not so much decision making

little swift
#

planning is included in the decision making process during prog though

civic spoke
#

has anyone healed in raids?

remote lintel
#

thats what i was saying when i said "decision making"

#

yes

forest sage
#

healing is also a bunch of planning

civic spoke
#

how is it compared to caster dps?

remote lintel
#

wym

forest sage
#

in fact when it's fully planned out, healing is mostly DPSing

little swift
#

and we're not disagreeing in that statement then, but saying melees have less of it to do is just not correct

civic spoke
#

well, i'm a bit nervous to heal in a raid. caster dps is pretty simple in just standing there and dishing it out lol

remote lintel
#

thats basically healing

forest sage
#

like you can do E9S without casting a single heal(as in a GCD heal)

remote lintel
#

you spam your dmg button until you need to heal

#

and when you do it repeatedly you predict the dmg

potent lava
#

Do you need to play during busy hours to do bozja efficiently, first timer or no

cloud palm
#

What's the difference between regular gear and augmented gear?

remote lintel
#

ilvl usually

#

@potent lava no

forest sage
#

augmented is 10ilvl higher and can be dyed

#

well for most gear like poetics and stuff

delicate field
little swift
#

yes

delicate field
#

72 ppl instance sounds like fun

little swift
#

this isn't the first iteration of large scale instance

#

Stormblood did Eureka

#

which was 4 different zones of it

delicate field
#

oh sweet. is there one for HW?

little swift
#

no

cloud palm
#

So as BLM if I get the proc for thunder for insta cast should I use that as soon as I can or wait for the DOT to almost end?

little swift
#

if its AoE

#

use teh aoe proc as you get it

#

if its for single target you can hold for either the dot or proc buff falling off

#

or use it to move

coral elk
#

If I purchase clothing from the online store, do you only get one copy of it? Letโ€™s say you accidentally toss it in-game, would you have to buy another? Or could you redownload it?

faint flare
#

Only one

forest sage
#

a GM could replace it most likely

coral elk
#

Oh wow. Thank you @faint flare & @forest sage

little swift
#

keep in mind this is a one-time restoration

#

and shouldn't be abused

#

but a cash shop item is definitely something you'd want to use this for

coral elk
#

Got it. I was just curious since Iโ€™m another MMO I play cash items can be downloaded as many times as a player likes. But is restricted only to them, so no giving them to other players, selling them, etc.

I was curious if 14 was the same, before I make a purchase should I decide to

remote lintel
#

mog station items are untradeable except the dream outfit

green grail
#

it varies per item, more expensive, bigger stuff, like.. 20$+ mounts? etc are usually account-wide, sent to every alt upon creation

#

but stuff like emotes or old event stuff is character-specific

coral elk
green grail
#

probably yeah

remote lintel
#

clothing is per character

green grail
#

if its account wide it should state in the name of the item on the store page i think

coral elk
#

Thank you @remote lintel @green grail

only try potd if your dungeon que takes longer as 10/15min, alternatively if you have your gc squad leveled you can do dungeons with them

It's been like a year since I played.

anybody got any tips for powering though the MSQ im getting burned out.. not really enjoying it that much as i don't really read it so currently its just running/teleporting spending gil. and skipping text. I love all the games other content but the MSQ is really killing it for me. and because none of its really voiced i am not really able to pay attention or get myself into it. I enjoyed the guild storys some what when leveling archer and lancer but now i am over leveled for MSQ so the small mobs don't really pose a challenge and i just press the 4 button like 2 or 3 times and bam. more text i skip.

I just know some stuff is lock in the trial edition so Iโ€™m trying to figure out if I should get it now. Because Iโ€™m liking the game . 13 hours the past two days

#

but dont rush all the way take it as you can

#

I am confused, the notes say that you are able to play for 4 days, but the page says this

#

Is it just the duration but only 4 days for each player?

faint flare
#

Thats the length of the campaign

leaden ginkgo
#

oh

warped nest
#

Login in this time period

leaden ginkgo
#

Makes sense.

#

Thanks, guys.

warped nest
#

Then you have... What, just 4 days?

#

Isn't the norm a week?

leaden ginkgo
#

The lodestone here in discord says play up to 4 days

#

I'll be surprised if they made it a week.

#

That would be too good.

#

what is best way to get combat materia

hot eagle
#

7 days is the callback campaign, free login was 4 days

leaden ginkgo
#

updating

#

can't wait

quaint birch
#

at what level does the MSQ of running and teleporting to this location talking and then completing end?

faint flare
#

80

quaint birch
#

oh god is it the same the entire way though?

faint flare
#

Thats the story

#

Occasional killing

tribal apex
#

So if I got the starter edition would I be able to get the 30 day game time from it even with the trial being on the account?

leaden ginkgo
#

@quaint birch hunts like dungeons??????

azure ivy
#

Heavensward was so much better and better paced

leaden ginkgo
#

HW story got skipped fast btw

azure ivy
#

You kind of have to just power through ARR

#

The quality was def lower probably because the lack of funding from the reboot?

quaint birch
#

do the newer expansions have voice actors? or is the same as the rest where like a paragraph is voiced then its just READ PLEASE.

faint flare
#

There's voice acting here and there

#

Throughout the whole game

quaint birch
#

yeah but like i said

faint flare
#

Usually in important cutscenes

leaden ginkgo
#

what are hunts

quaint birch
#

itsone paragraph then it switches back to text.

faint flare
#

Thats throughout the game

VA is in important cutscenes

#

Shits expensive

quaint birch
#

game makes a lot of money

faint flare
#

There's 5 languages

#

They need to do

#

And a fucking lot of text

#

If you want to oay a 50$ sub then sure

i mean most FF games are just text

When the first dungeon do able?

can peopel not in your fc enter your fcs workshop??

#

cuz there was some random sprout in my fcs workshop but not in my fc @_@

faint flare
#

They can

tribal apex
#

Iโ€™m going to imagine the story will take eme there eventually

silver ruin
#

oh okay

quaint birch
#

game is a big company. and a lot of smaller companies can get multi language voice actors.
along with that this game is sub so the game continues to make money unlike other games that are one time purchase. Also i would be happy to have the game in Voiced just in Japanese and read subtitles rather then music only awkward pauses for suspense as if it was meant to have voices and walls of text.

dire prawn
faint flare
#

Remember you used to need 4 people to do stuff there

#

So people asked randoms

dire prawn
silver ruin
#

true, he wasnt in my party either so i wasnt sure what the requirements were

dire prawn
#

They didn't have shit for a VA budget

gloomy ice
#

Bear in mind that ARR had a year and a half and a minuscule budget to turn things around from the disastrous launch of 1.0.

faint flare
#

Additional VA just further increases cost needed and development time

#

Thus longer patches

dire prawn
#

When you reach the quest that comes before 'Before the Dawn' which is the end of A Realm Reborn in its entirety the voice acting picks up

obsidian patio
#

And they likely see it as too much of an money/time sink to fully VA all the story

dire prawn
#

And then it's more prevalent through the rest of the story because ARR 2.0 was, surprisingly, very successful

quaint birch
#

Didn't at start but i am sure they do now. they have 20 million players.. lets say only 10 million play with sub. thats a lot of money.

faint flare
#

Which they dont get all of it

dire prawn
obsidian patio
#

Thatโ€™s not 10m concurrent players. I doubt even WoW has that much anymore

#

Hell, I donโ€™t think WoW has reached that number in like a decade

jesus

quaint birch
#

being as there are wait ques in final fantasy they have a lot. SE has announced they have 20 million registered players . and i imagine the active palyers playing are about 1.2 million. Plus there will always be those still paying but not playing.

Hmmm, I was thinking big in terms of brim. Think Big Hat Logan from dark souls

but on PS4 alone the last check was done in November there were 1.6-2.3 million players playing.

There's people here who let their subs expire and aren't renewing them because they're waiting for 6.0

ARR MSQ lacked quality because of relaunch, but theres def a lot more cutscenes and VA later on.

Hey funny question before I blow up my party in DR, what effect does the Gambler Essence have on Dynamis Dice?

Probably only good effects

Do I risk it, do I do it for the meme

Always meme

It's true

I have been told there is a MSQ potion skip? what exactly does it do?

Auto completes the main story up to the start of a expansion

But doesn't level you
