Thanks @delicate field !!

Hey all. Issue here with Kupo-bot: it can't find Sunset Orange Dye.
So I need to do Eden Eternity for 1 day a week for 7 weeks?
Anyone else have an issue with dyes (this isn't the first one it couldn't find)?
yes
once a week
Pain
you need 7 blades from E12N, of which you can get one per week
Even then, 7 weeks is a while. And with Endwalker probably coming soon, I might not bother with it, but I'll see
endwalker isn't for 6+ months
they reduce the number of blades required to 4 later
as well as double the cap of revelations
weekly cap
that's in 5.55 right?
prob
Disregard on the Kupo-bot question.
4blades iirc is 5.5
Is it still possible to claim the Myochin Coffer from the lvl 70 samurai quest if you completed it using One Samurai's Journey?
yeah checked 4.5 notes, it was when they reduced from 7 to 4
you get the armor from the calamity salvager
@halcyon stag calamity salvager in limsa/gridania/uldah
whats the difference between DH and crit?
Is there a guide that tells you where you get the materials to craft the Aesthate gear
DH is 25% increase damage on a hit...getting more raises the chance to direct hit
Crit raises crit rate AND damage
You can crit and direct hit on the same hit
ty
I'm doing the lvl 70 quest for GNB and I keep dying on the boss' stack attack. I tried standing in front of Radovan, in front of Sophie and behind Sophie but I just get killed every time, what am I supposed to do ?
256 is less than shire gear
I guess that's what happens when you're 10lvl ahead of the MSQ
youre prolly gonna need to swap difficulty if you cant get better gear
Do you have access to scaevan gear?
nah, I'm at the beginning of SB
the shb job quests do presume you have access to better gear
welp I'll wait then
and also don't award you with better gear at 70 either
picking up some shire pieces might help a tad
but its a stop gap until you're less squishy by far
Tbh a large part of fighting content in SB is level synced, so you're not going to need your lv70 skills terribly. Should still get full shire.
you could grab stuff from the mb if you have gil lying around
full shire isn't necessary
or better yet craft it yourself
but it will make a noticeable difference up to lv65msq
I buy what I can with my tomes
I politely, but strongly disagree with buying fighting gear from MB. Glam I can understand, but fighting gear is not worth it.
But I have like 3 sets to buy lmao
follow the gear priority
and it should be fine
weapon > chest/legs > head/gloves/feet > accs
body head legs feet waist, aight?
yeah, i only really do it if i dont have poetics
eh, close enough
crafted gear doesn't ever surpass tome gear until you cross expansions
yeah
Wait, your starting coffer should have provided you with i260 left side, right? In that case I'd prioritize accessories, as left side isn't that much of an upgrade.
but its still an ilvl boost
but in this case its a tad expensive as an undertaking if you're in the middle of msq progress
it gives i255
yeah
good call
thats why they're i256 rn
its fine to progress msq as it is like this
yeah
By the time you get to alt jobs, you're probably constantly capping poetics and need something to spend them on.
lmao
I think if you cannot get gear from other sources (dungeons, tomestones) then you don't need the gear MB could give you.
yeah
its just if you cant hit the ilvl requirement for the first leveling dungeon of the xpac crafted gear could help
when you start an alt at level 1, how do you gear up for progression?
if you threw away the "all classes" gear you get from msq
1-50 just whatever dungeon gear you can get/farm gear as a high-level class, then poetics gear at 50/60/70
vendors
Literally no reason to use vendor gear for alts.
tbh you could probably run satasha naked, then run tam tara with satasha gear, and so on and so forth.
like you can buy level 1 vendor gear, but by the time you grind dungeon you're probably level 20 ish, with shitty level 1 gear
Or just with a high level job...
i thought they meant throwing away level 1 gear
On unsync it takes like 5 minutes.
sorry
just use the hall of the novice stufF?
^
why are you running a dungeon naked
what is "unsync"?
In your duty finder window select the âď¸ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
Or do potd where your gear does not matter at all. Honestly, you can go from 1 to 80 these days literally in your racial clothes. POTD into HoH into bozja
can you do unsync with roulette?
No
Nope
The two are mutually exclusive conditions.
so you can redo hall of novice to keep getting the gear it drops even if you finished it?
Only if you don't have the gear in your armory or inventory
There are three different sets though.
oh ok, that seems easy to get
Physical dps, caster, and tank.
so my ISP seemed to reroute my connection, i got around 120ping 2 weeks ago now i get around 230ping in tonberry. i tried free vpn on internet, while it does make my ping smaller to around 160ms, it's very unstable and i got dc'ed alot. Is nordvpn any good for gaming? i don't mind with slower download speed as long as its stable
Windscribe is free if you use less than 10gb a month. Been using it for years with no issue
I've heard good things about nordvpn, although I haven't used it myself.
Hey all. So, I was messing around with !iam verify in the bot spam, and I got this: "Please save the code to your Lodestone profile and run the !iam verify command again.
" Where does one load a code on the Profile page at Lodestone? I'm there now, but I don't see anyplace to do so.
I googled it, but all it gave me were hits of other people on Lodestone.
am i gonna be waiting forever to find 3 others for this sastasha dungeon
@fervent oar the string of numbers in the URL of your character's lodestone page is what im guessing
its part of the main quest line đ¤ˇââď¸
yea Windscribe is not bad, i signed up years ago so i have a free limit of 50gb, but new accts are gonna be 10gb
its not peak hours yet in NA

@remote lintel Well, I tried that. No go. Hmm! I don't know. Weird. Thanks.
Hello ! What's the penalty if I miss a call for a dungeon ?
@remote lintel Well, when you click on the link in the PM area to go to the link to Lodestone, there is an "Edit Character Profile" window that's open (not open otherwise). So, I pasted it in there and confirmed it. That will have to do!
did you do !iamid when using your lodestone id
The 4th time and later, you are locked out from queue for 30 min. Resets every 24h
@remote lintel I'm a bit confused, but that aside, I know how to put in blue both users (@) and channels (#), but how did you put in shade the !iamid command?
use `
i just did that so i wouldnt accidentally trigger kupo bot
on both sides of the command
Right, but how?
what channy said
like this
use ``
putting the command inside a full message won't trigger the bot like !faq poetics
oh
That's two single quote marks?
It's A backtick
Okay, gotcha on the key. You have two, so I take it you surround the command with that key?
Gotcha. Thanks much!
one on each side of the phrase
With three you get this bad boy btw
See, all I see is the word this shaded; I don't see how you're doing it. But I'll experient.
experiment.
Thanks much!
its the code blocks section
I see it. Thanks very much!
Whatâs the most popular tank?
all of them
I only ever see DRK
In roulettes it's kind of random what tanks you'll see.
But do enough and you'll see all of them relatively equally.
i see all of them 
confirmation bias is not representative of the norm
all tanks are played equally
with some skew towards gunbreaker when it was first released
Is that xp under Supply for FC or in general
I want to tank. But donât know whattttttff
thats for your specific class listed
Hmm can I rank up fc if I turn that stuff in
i thought its for the specific craft class
thats what i said
GNB it is then
the specific class listed
yea
how fast is a void ark/rabanstre run right now? Do you need blue mages like CT?
Im doing fates for the memories but in 12 fates Ive only gotten one crystal. Its been 35 mins of fates for one crystal.
Donât need blue mages. Both get cleared in like 12-15 minutes
faster than I expected, I thought both would be 20 mins minimum
just got into a void ark and at minute 4 the first boss died so maybe ~16 minutes minimum is a better calculation. Idt 12 lol
Hi so I'm very close to getting all my crafters to 80 via ishgard restoration. What steps do I need to take to complete my crafting journey? Go back and complete all the crafter leveling quests, obtain yellow scrips to buy legendary recipes, and white scrips to get high ilvl endgame crafting gear?
Did I miss anything?
Nope..
Is that it?
At minimum you want to do the level 65 class quests for Manipulation, a very good crafting action
Yes, youâll know what else to do after you do those things
!action manipulation
Yeah I'm doing all the story quests for crafters
All of them
Lol
That'll take 3 or 4 hours alone
a lot more than that if youre starting from 1...
Its because a lot of the quests, especially the 30-60 ones require you to grab a lot of base items and HQ stuff
you can buy the materials or the item outright but it can get VERY expensive since its old stuff not really on market
Aight. I didnt have the 50k gil per quest at times so I had to get my own stuff lol
Since in the end it wouldve been like 6mil
And now you know a decent idle way to make money, sell the items requested for in the quests!
:)))
Prob the best way to make money crafting right now after firmament made everyone an omnicrafter lol including me
If my mates in a dungeon finished the dungeon while I'm disconnected or if they decided to surrender because I was disconnected does it count as a penalty ? đ
It shouldnt, but you dont get completion bonus iirc for roulettes
Hey so I'm trying to find the ||Yabby's weakspot with the spyglass. But everywhere I click doesn't seem to be working. Where should I aim?||
Spoilered cause it relates to a MSQ
I love my internet connection, since yesterday it doesn't work properly and in one evening I got several server crash and i missed a call for a dungeon (as a DPS, the audacity when you suffer of DPS curse xD) and left the game during a dungeon đ But thank you for your answer xD
@steep pelican ||jaw||
yeah Im comcast in northeast USA and raid got called early last night because I kept disconnecting mid fight
how is the bot situation, did they ever start doing something about countless reports yet sein the bot for weeks upon end continuing their work
they ban bots in waves
if no one would buy gil we would have a lot less bots, but since ppl buy..... and they can only do so much against them but every mmo got bot problems

is there a way to rebind scroll wheel to anything ?
want to use abilities with it
Only to a specific few functions iirc
Unless you mean mwheel click and not mwheel scroll
How far into ShB do I need to be to run Puppets Bunker?
You need to finish the 5.0 MSQ
you also need to be at least ilvl 465
And then you can start the side quests, but you also need to go through Copied Factory
which is ilvl 430 iirc
I should have asked when I can start the Nier quests
Do I have to have my character naked in reflect farming in eureka pyros?
past 5.0 still
@slate arrow scroll up and down
Yes.
is auto hotkey allowed to rebind keys ?
What does it do?
Does the Bozjan earing.. Work in Bozja?
Yes.
The 10%+ xp effect
Yep, IIRC
Nice

What other xp buffs work there?
I think food doesn't work
What about FC buff?
Is there a way to obtain the Aetheryte Earrings or were they only obtainable by pre-ordering Shadowbringers?
I imagine 6.0 will have a pre-order earing as well anyways, right?
And so far all previous pre-order items have yet to have been given an alternate source to get them
We dont know
You mean from the food buffs?
Top right
Yeah it's in the top-right corner
Next to the clock
Along with any other buffs you can have like FC buffs or the Mounted icon or Road to 70
Debuffs on the other hand will appear at the top of your screen in the dead center
Itâs not in the duty finder. You have to queue into it using the wood wailer in south shroud
Matched party/group puts you into a queue to find others, fixed just throws you in with your current party
(I do NOT recommend soloing for experience as itâs much slower than groups and needs good Aetherpool levels)
okk
Regarding the buff/debuff icons, you can always move them using the HUD setup. You can also increase their size to make them easier to see if you like.
also there is an option to auto target enemies on dungeon?:
Quick question, what is the emote for the question mark? owo
for the last shb relic step , do every 10 floors of potd guarantee a drop ?
It's /consider, and it was an event reward this past year. @gaunt raptor
No
its only a chance ?
The drop rate increases as you go further down
yikes
@odd bobcat nope
Because SE doesnât want people to grind out all the Revelation gear in like the first month and not bother with endgame content anymore once they do.
is it worth getting the ishgard relic crafting tools at this point or just getting the white scrip tools?
Theyâre an alternative to pentamelded Aesthete tools if you see yourself wanting to do 4-star crafting.
so Aethete is ilvl 490, white scrip 500 and then ishgard 510 correct?
If not, then the white scrip tool, and the white scrip set as a whole, is more than enough for casual crafting.
is it possible to buy clothing items that were offered as quest rewards but in the "optional" category, im about to do the last thau quest at level 30 and theres some pretty good gear for me here but..i can only really select one i like
Tbh all of the steps but the newest one are fairly easy to do since theyâre normal recipes that just want the relic equipped
Just need a lot of yellow scrips and/or skybuilder scrips to get some of the needed materials.
Yes. All equipment given through the story has alternate sources.
sweet

what's the most reliable way to find and chill with people who also started this game recently in the same data center etc
thanks in advance for helping a newcomer!
I heard something about the novice network, you have to ask a mentor to get in
rad, thank you!
Most people hang out in Limsa Lominsa near the aetheryte
have a good day, fam
Do it in Limsa if you have it unlocked
oo i have free trial and shout isnt unlocked
F
No NN for you then
oh well just another thing to look forward to c:
Just use /say chat
There's also /yell if you have that
Yell isnât available to trial players either
oof
@wet trellis just use "say" near a mentor
idk what novice network is lol
https://support.na.square-enix.com/rule.php?id=5382&la=1&tag=freetrial doesn't mention it
I don't either because I haven't joined it
Novice network is basically a global chat for new/returning players and mentors AKA people who want to help newer players
oooh, cool!
I havenât join the NN yet, itâs been 2 weeks now
uum. i need help. i just finished the stormblood alliance quest line in order to access gangos. but the airship isn't where its supposed to be? i have also completed shadowbringers which i believe is another requirement? im tryna start the resistance weapon quest
did you finish 5.1?
yes ive done up to 5.3
As DPS, is it better to do non-bonus'd roulettes or PotD, as far as xp goes ?
roulettes
oh okay i thought that was on gangos my b
Roulettes without the bonus is pointless
leveling, Frontlines are the best
Roulettes without the bonus is the exact same as directly queueing for the dungeons
I mean without the adventurer in needs bonus
do I have to do the role quest in shadowbringer to complete the story?
That bonus is completely negligible in terms of experience
You need to complete at least one of them
oh you meant THAT bonus
Is there a level requirement for desynthesis after you already have the skill?
Do you know when they will tell me?
Level 30 for that crafter
Kk ty
When you can't progress anymore lol
lol
It's a big announcement thing though yeah
And it tells you when you begin shb that you should do them
where is the housing enthusiast in lavender beds? to claim lost chocobo
thank you
What's the best method for using glamours, plates or just directly casting them? I have some pieces I like want to keep looking at but the system is a little confusing (yep I'm dumb)
For PoTD/HoH can you get XP as one job & enter as another?
Okay great! Can I remove plates without needing a stock of glamour dispellers ready?
No. You get the exp reward as you finish a set of floors on whatever job you ran it on
Unless you're asking if you can enter as any of your unlocked jobs and not the one you did the quest on: Then yes.
its a charity leve, meaning you can turn in the item 3 times and 3 the rewards 3 times
they're very efficient leves
Plates don't cost anything at all. You just use the glamour prisms to put items into the dresser then you don't need anything else unless you take something out of the dresser
I need help getting a bloody lance head so I can get a relic weapon
Right okay brilliant - thanks for clearing it up for me! Time to work on my fashion game lol
you will need dispellers to remove the glamour tho
regardless of whether you use plates or not
you can't apply a plate over a plate?
yes, you can do that
I might have read what they said wrong tbh
I thought they meant to like make a new plate
basically, if you want to swap to a different plate you don't need any prisms
but if you want to remove glamour from an item and not swap to a different glam, then you'll need a dispeller
Oh okay yeah that's what I was asking, I'll buy some dispellers from the marketboard then - thank you
Does anyone know how I can get a bloody lance head besides the market board?
Can also buy them with gc seals
how's that item to start wedding quest called?
run wanderer's palace @fresh swift
flawless bend or something?
Thank you
Where to get level 80 gear?
are there particular raids I should grind haunting and vexatious memories, or has the hotfix made it so that fates r better?
You need a flawless band during the quest but it's not the bracelets you get off of the online store if you mean those
ty
Oh I didn't know that, thanks for the heads up
Void ark and Rabanstre if you wanna go raid route

Hey, sorry for asking such a simple question but I didn't pay enough attention to when it was explained ingame and now I don't know what this does or how I can make i t dissapear:
That's your tank stance. It won't disappear but you can move it
Move it via hud editor
it tells you whether tank stance is on or not
You can re read the description in Actions and traits > question mark at the bottom
system > hud layout to move/resize it
ahaa thank you all!
Primarily it shoes tank stance and the damage buff duration from Edge/Flood of shadow
emerald carbuncle/garuda-egi is aoe-focused
also is your gear lvl 18 also or only something along lvl 10 or less ?
You're not really gonna see bigger numbers until you're a summoner
And even then you might still not be impressed for a few more levels
They will go up before then though so don't worry nothing is wrong
hey is there a way to change Battle Tab Name Specifically?
any other recruitment avenues I can visit to find people for a static?
dont believe so
already posted in #494379215420915712
r/ffxivrecruit, there was a specific discord for recruitment but uhh
i dont remember the link for it
your data center might also have something specific, i believe the balance discord also has recruitment channels
how do I remove this flower from my name
168 hours of playtime
I have those
I am max level
with all missio0ns done
I haven't played in a long time though
You can type /nastatusoff, I believe it works for that one as well
ahh I tried and it didn't change :c
Then Press O, right click your name and edit your status
/returnerstatusoff
I use a controller O opens chat OGJIASD
down on the dpad should target yourself
oh yeah
there's really no helping on error i2501 huh...
It has lots of potential solutions and workarounds
also @obsidian patio it works but I don't wanna remove it I just wanna hide it
thank you regarldless though
Thereâs no tried and true solution to all possibilities
you can hide your name in character config
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Upn9755QiOw anyone have any good job explination videos kinda like this one(for other classes) ? Im trying to learn a lot more about the jobs and this bard guide is the only good one Ive found

It is not covering end Game optimization.

I did wanderer Palance twice and couldn't find bloody lance head
Where the heck is that thing at
are his vids from 11 months ago still relevant?
Treasure Coffer: 10.5-8.1 @fresh swift
its a chance to drop from it
so you'll likely have to run it a couple of times
What happens after 3 penalties in duty finder?
@twilit arch no way. I hope I don't have to do this like ten times.
There are 4 potential drops from that chest, so if you're unlucky
I hear he has good guides, but I haven't checked them myself
@leaden ginkgo i use his "2 minute ___ guide" videos
although the monk one might be more out of date since it got reworked recently
wesk or fox
fox
I watched a couple but as a new player it was really tough to follow what he was saying lol
theyre more for people who already know how to play the class and want to learn how to play it optimally
most of the videos I found are either going so fast I cant follow or are so slow that its like
if youre just looking for leveling stuff wesk is better
How is someone floating in ffxiv
the emote that comes with the 200$ omega statue
(yes you read that price right)
For the augmented law's order weapons, how do the custom substats work?
Any newly joined player wanna run some dungeons?
i wouldnt buy this one
Just input your desired stats
You get to pick them
what's the stat total limit?
510 per stat, total 1167
so you can do 510 in crit, 510 in dh, and 147 in det?
Yes
you can also just ask
in here
watching a video vs asking people who play that class are two different kinds of learning
youre right but im trying to get a lot of like, what are their rotations like? whats the core gameplay? etc. which is hard to type out
No
oh
depends on the person who responds i guess
Bard is dot and proc focused
i would rather type out a response than answer through voice
ok then fair
Rotating through songs
basically once you get to the choose your stat stage of a relic, it nixes meld slots @raven cliff
is it ok if you have 2 tanks for lyon in CLL and one of them doesnt have a dmg boost or whatever

25+ pages explaining everything you'll ever need to know about bard
Are all the Roulettes worth doing for xp or just Leveling/MSQ/Alliance content
leveling/msq/alliance are the big 3
add Frontlines into the second part and you're good
frontline is pretty decent as well
with normal raid/trials being ok but not amazing
and 50-70 being not really worth it unless you've got nothing else
Normal raids, 50/60/70, and trials give... Eh exp
trials is decent for time spent
Trials is "ok" for the average time
Really I just want to hit 80 on the four tanks, and I've got 2 at 80, 1 at 79 and 1 at 78 so I can just wait the additional day or two
normal raids is also usually pretty quick

If you want the "fast" way alongside roulettes, you could do bozja
Since its the level instance for Shadowbringers
or just run mt gulg
like once since the 79 would probably hit 80 with like msq and maybe one other roulette
and then the 78 can use whatever you've got left over + a mt gulg run
I'd consider doing my DRG or RDM next, but DPS queues for roulettes suck
That's why I recommend bozja for DPS since exp gain is faster than waiting in queue times
at this point im used to bad DPS times lmao
Or if you can mooch off a healer friend and ask for fast queues
or just go to limsa and ask if anyone will queue with you as a healer
Whats the AoE spam combo for DRK?
Unleash > Stalwart soul
Stalwart is 72 however so
Just 42 levels of suffering with Unleash and Flood
i can hear the sound effects in my dreams đ
Yep.

Hey so I can unlock Eureka weapons. But I want to know which is actually more beneficial in the long run as I go through Post-SB and early ShB. Is Eureka weapons stronger then poetic weapons?
nope
technically, yes
but its not worth the effort to get a eureka weapon strictly as a weapon.
Eureka weapons at this point are really for glams
Because they are not best in slot / current relic tier
I want to emphasyze early ShB and Post-SB
Still not worth it
it is infeasible that you will notice the difference between a fully upgraded Eureka relic and the poetic weapon during post-SB and early ShB
again, the amount of time it would take to get a fully upgraded eureka weapon
is not worth the effort
when you can just buy the scaevan weapon in a shorter amount of time
and do just fine with
For a fully upgraded Eureka weapon would require you to complete Hydatos which is quite a long grind
And given how Eureka isn't very active right now itd take an exorbant amount of time
@open ember I'm not asking about grind length, since ik later on I need to get bozja or whatever the current relic series is
Well
you dont
We're telling you
eureka has no connection to shb relic
it would be faster for you to do post SB and just get a new weapon in SHB
and you dont even need to touch the shb relic
And I never said Bozja or SHB relic 
@modest igloo I'm not asking for speed or grind length. I DO NOT have a lot of gil, so if I can get something stronger then poetics I will do so. And I'm only comparing Eureka vs the level 70 poetic lines

it is still not worth it
its easier to get, yes
If you are only interested the wrong answer, there wasn't much point in asking the question...
The relic is going to be stronger than the scaevan weapon, but not for the amount of effort that you will have to put in to get it
ok, whats the stats for the level 70 poetic then
you can get the poetic weapon is a much shorter time and it will serve you just fine thru pos Sb and early Shb
The number of times between level 70 and level 75 that you will say "Damn, if only I had the Eureka weapon, I would have won" is zero
how long is a full eureka weapon grind? 100 hours?
you will most likely be done with post sb and early shb long before you finish the eureka weapon
Thank you, I only care about actual stat numbers NOT the grind time
You need feathers ice and flame from the first 3 areas of eureka
It just takes too long but hey if they wanna do it then go figure
save it for later for glamour, it is not worth it at all to grind for
@leaden ginkgo I still will grind it out. After all I have nothing BUT time with covid and all that
loool see you in a few hours when you hate the game
eureka is... not very fun lmao
i said let it rest
i avoided eureka and bozja like th plague
Stop typing
is it worse than the ARR Relics tho? real question
imo, no
Its technically easier imo
mostly because eureka can be actively worked on regardless of what stage you're at
@leaden ginkgo which relics did you grind?
I never even tried to go for a relic before. So this will be my first
Since crystals in Eureka drops very easily
@manic flare 0 đ
plenty of ARR have points where you have no choice in the matter
Well except for Pyros. Crystal drop rate is meh
i haven't even looked up what the weapons look like bc of eureka lmao
i learned about "book step" last night
what the fuck.
All relics just take a while but I don't believe the Eureka grind to be as bad as ARR relic grind
ARR relic grind is just. Very very long
I heard Eureka was EXTREMELY rough in the past but a lot of patch notes made it easier. But I joined the game roughly around 5.3-5.4 somewhere around there. So I can't say for sure
No its just punishing if you die
the echo buff added to eureka means its pretty easy these days
It was pretty bad on release
And the exp gain kinda sucks
tbh I've done one book and it wasn't even bad, just a lot of teleporting around and oneshotting stuff, the really annoying part was the fates because you have to wait for them to spawn
For reference I did Erueka 1 - 60 in about 2 weeks
but that's 1
The leveling is the annoying part
Once you're done it subsequent weapons are easier
Since you only need to grab the crystals and such
meh, i might do it when im not dying of schoolwork and other stuff
Zodiac is just a lot of waiting
Once you hit like. 42, you can utlitize Pyros & Hydatos leveling cheese with the sprites
and gil if you dont have crafters
Penthelisea also requires a big group to spawn
Which is needed for relic
Because of her flames
Just overload on crystals at every step if you cba to spawn the nm needed
Oh right
Or wait for the time they spawn
neither penny, louhi or pazuzu need to be done now
This change made a huge difference
I forgot you could exchange crystals for that
the birdwatcher is right there I'm dumb
Is there a trick to fishing in the Diadem? I seem to be catching level 80 fish all the time, but I'm only level 72 so they often escape. Also, is there no fishing log entry thing for it?
is there any website that shows JP macros?
I want to use them to teach my friends WoL EX but cannot type
đ
dumb question. is there amonthly fee for ffxiv
yes
Yes
yes
!faq subprice
this is an mmo
unless you're playing on Free Trial
You have to pay a monthly sub when buy the game
You get a month for free when you buy the game
And don't feel obligated to stay subbed every month of the year either
so currently you can buy the collectors edition for the price of the full normal edition on normal season because its on sale
The devs encourage people to take breaks from the game and come back when new content drops
some people do that, only paying subs when they feel like it
its not on sale on the SE store or steam
oh damn its not on sale anymore
question: how accurate is this kupo bot supposed to be? none of the prices for anything i look up match
there is no totally accurate measure for the mb
I'm not relying on it or anything I was mostly testing, but it seems like a waste of time for market prices since none of them are right for me
imight as well just look on the actual mb lol
There's no API that can access that info in the game and pull it out, I believe it's updated by players
i guess if you're server jumping it can give you an idea of stuff that sells higher on other servers ?
or buys cheaper or whatever since you can't sell (i don't server jump i just hear peple talk about it)
def not half off anymore
I was so happy I got the game when I did. $29,99 for the whole thing.
all expacs
all healer classes are healers.
just depends on how good they are.
so i should suck it up and pay 59.99?

i mean, if your free trial is running out... it's $30. I spent more than that on chinese food last month
i think ast is worst healer personally, but people run it as healer just fine.
i can't find it for 30
Ast is probably easily most versatile of the healers
Easy weave windows and tools to answer every situation with losing uptime
Also buffs party
yeah each class has it's own ups and downs, but any healer class is good if the player knows how to play reactively
lol channy must be an AST
Nope
it's just my opinion lol
War main
ast can solo heal a lot of raids
I've had bad luck with AST in parties. But don't listen to me, i love being a bard too.
Your opinion is incorrect and has no place in this channel
I wanna see AST solo potd 200 lol
It has
all classes have
As of recently all jobs have completed it
actually, my response to the guy was that any healer is a decent healer, so I think you're barking up the wrong tree. My opinion is as valid as yours.
how often does the game go half off
because it's an opinon.
đ everyone is entitled for their opinion in US even if it's uninformed one
every month or 2
it goes on sale more frequently on the SE store than on steam
opinions by nature are not required to be informed. they are emotional decisions not rational ones

eiterh way, this isn't the pooint of this channel. got my question answered. I'm out
Classes are based on player skill not the actual class itself
my character won't last a month or two, im dang close to maxing out free
pick up another class
healer and tank is too stressful đ
they seem that way
they really aren't
both healer and tank are easier in terms of rotations
offtank probably has the easiest job in a raid tbh
anyone know a website where i can see the Job Armor?
Ffxivcollection
eorzeacollection too
Xivstyle archive as well but its on the slow end
its all in japanese x,x
They lead to.lodestone pages
-Just made it to Hydatos, I got ALL 56 logo types and finished just the main story quest of the Pyros. Where is the armor guy to check about glow elemental armor?
he's in the hydatos starting area
although hydatos was never buffed in its drops like the first 3 zones were
so it'll take you a while to get the crystals to upgrade your gear from base to +1
aside from dailies how do I get 10 million xp asap with the least amount of effort
did you unlock the +0 armors in pyros?
queue for your highest level dungeon
Did you include beast tribes in your dailies?
When you say to unlock +0 armors in pyros what do you mean? I did the logo types and the story. And I bought the elemental armor, too.
I may have forgotten to unlock the non kobold and amalja beast tribes
Rip im lv69 and need the last level for a glamour
apparently you need a pagos weapon completed too
Do you need to be 80 for revelation tomes if you get them through beast tribes?
Theres the kojin and ananta for sb beast tribes @stable hinge
Ah, so, I need to go back and make the weapon, too? I did the anemo part and pagos one I think and got the weapon to +smth, but haven't done it yet on pyros.
Wait...
Yes you do loure. Particularly only.pixies would give them
Don't tell me I need to collect light, again, on pyros, too for the weapon...
Ah, ok. Ty channy
Thanks for all the tips
Welcome to pyros!
Gerolt didn't give me a lantern was talking to him.
You're here forever
......
i think you need to do a few hydatos quests agios
do that first before doing pyros
apparently you only need pagos weapon, not pyros
First I'll have to go and take it out of the dresser lol
then I will go and do quests in Hydatos I guess.
Or, should I go and speak to Grelot?
Okay, so, no need to collect light in pyros?
No
Just hydatos story and the artisan will unlock the shop?
okay, good.
Thanks, everyone.
Haunting Memory of the Dying drop in gry abania fates right?
ive been grinding it for an hour and not one has dropped hng
and for the next one, yanxia is good
get a party...
if you want solo, just do void ark
party = fate, solo = void ark
do you think the new relic quests takes you like 24 hours to finish? đ¤
I'm trying to see how much time I've spent this week to upgrade mine from crownblade recollection to augmented law order
Hey guys has anyone been able to break 100 fps on this game on a 144 Hz monitor? I just recently bought a new GTX 1660 Ti gpu for this game but its barely even going above 60fps. Which is pretty weird cuz I can play more demanding games easily over 100fps
maybe the setting limit đ¤ i'm using 1050 and I got 60 fps average
oh no hehe
still 60
I see hmm đ¤
What is your CPU?
on the contrary it's optimised
AMD Ryzen 7 4000series
maybe someone else will help you on this đ¤ but that's definitely weird
This game is more CPU heavy than GPU
then why am I able to run The Witcher 3 on 100 fps, and not this? xD
yeah it make sense if it's CPU heavy than GPU
did you cap your frame rate in the settings
he said he removed the fps limiter hehe
@faint flare just talked a bit to progress the quests, Grelot told me I unlocked new items and hurried to talk to the artisan, and this is what he is telling me now. Is it because I have the armor and weapon glamoured?
I see.. but an Ryzen 7 4800H is 8-cores. i think it shud be fast enough
4000 series CPU though?
Probably need to have them on you
Laptop?
Since you're trading items in
yes laptop
ow hmm not sure
-d'oh! Big idiot here.
I'll go and unglamour them
You're right, if it's trading you are right.
What resolution are you running?
1920x1080
Huh
weird o_o
Do you run reshade or anything?
indeed đŚ
lemme check...
i simply followed optimized settings from nvidia gefore experience
Anything else taking up resources in the background?
Yes Im running bluestacks, doing some auto-farming on a gacha mobile game
is there anything important i should spend my cluster on before the mount? :o
Does that chug another game while running it in the background?
r u farming in draglia lost
yes, there's currently another game running in bluestacks
Also try turning down settings to laptop standard for a moment and see if you get above 100
dam that's not even live
I mean it usually fall when you do 48 man raids for example
is 75-80 on an alt meant to feel like its taking a while ? just feels super slow compared to other leveling rangees
hell 71-80
no
i have 65% bonus thats all
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
are you in preferred server
it goes down to 50%
nah
I see, so it's 50%
sigh no wonder

@faint flare got everything elemental out of dresser, went back to Hydatos, he keeps saying the same thing. đ¤
you can just join bozja 24/7 đ very fast leveling there
is there a item like the commercial survival manual but for combat?
really? I main one, doesn't feel like it is
Dont forget the Hyados crystals as well
I mean compared to SMN, AST, MCH
@leaden ginkgo not even close
Ah yeah, I def gonna have to farm those, it can't be that bad, right? It will just take time.
Hydasos crystal rates arent buffed
Like the other zones
You get basically half the amount
Damn , it feels like im playing a dps when im on gbn lmao. so many buttons constantly
But we still get , right?
tried going standard laptop, it only gets to like 74fps tops
Yes
just your feeling đ maybe you are not enjoying it
At most you get 10 from Squiddy
if you don't enjoy it, it feels like pain playing it
if the area is active and there's people to run stuff it won't be that bad
How much Ram do you have?
the thing i don't enjoy is waiting for hours or be lost without a party anywhere
16GB
which i had a lot happening to me in anemos up to pyros
Something is funky. Go ahead and pop into #technology-discussion
indeed lol.. ok thanks!
oh sorry, you were talking about Eureka? yeah I think it will takes around a year of dedication for that...
someone told me that, haven't really tried it myself..
A year just to collect enough hydatos crystals so I can make the elemental armor glow?
Nah, he probably meant overall
ah yeah I mean unlocking the baelsar wall(?) the instance name
I'm not sure about the elemental armor sorry...
But even then in active instances it doesn't take too long to go around and bop all the nms
Baldesion arsenal is eaay
With the luck, effort and playing through calculating days, it took me overall 18 days or so give or take to finish up with everything and reach Hydatos now.
15 days a year ago when I was playing, 3 days now in the free login event
Anyways, thanks, everyone, I guess I'll try to do the story in Hydatos and hopefully this artisan will open his shop for me...
oh it doens't take that long to unlock baledesion arsenal? I see
It depends how much you grind. Eureka is the kind of content where you benefit more to sit down and grind your butt off instead of doing it in spurts
maybe I misremember.. the person said a month and I recall it's a year đ¤Śââď¸
not sure if anyone responded to you but that's not at all true
highest APM in the game goes to MCH and NIN
ah yeh MCH and NIN make sense
Me and my friends did from Anemos to Hydatos in about 4 days
Whatâs APM and GNB?
actions per minute
actions per minute, and gunbreaker
gunbreaker
Thx
Guys...
A moment of peace and press F
for my own stupidity
I had to speak with Drake first.
..........
I guess now all I have to do is just play, enjoy my remaining 2 days of playing and farm whatever crystals I get in order to get the glow version.
What is it you trying to get ? @leaden ginkgo

hydatos crystals come very very slow
if you see ovni or support parties up, make sure you participate in them
they're a pretty significant amount of crystals
you can't join the support party but you can help them clear the fate
I see
@pale jungle Eureka armor, these for full list https://youtu.be/8OMmmnKHF80

I has but a humble question
just ask
So i play on pc but i use a controller, is there a way i can set up those two hot bars on the side i see alot of people using for thier classes so i can just click and switch
Yes
Just turn on regular hotbars via character config or hud editor
And drag stuff to it
You can also use it to set up a cooldowns bar close to the center so you are eyes forward vs eyes on the xhb
You never click it, you just use it for ergo
For a beginner tank, would you all reccomend any over another ?
warrior is pretty braindead
Both paladin and warrior are pretty braindead easy especially at low levels
Alright then thats good to know
tanks are just easy
Paladin later becomes the most button-heavy job in the game.
below 50, the main WAR/PLD difference is in their aoe
Only major difference is Overpower conal aoe vs Circle aoe of total eclipse
WAR needs a target for their cone attack, so it's slightly more difficult than being able to spin to win without targeting anything
Warrior, however, mostly revolves around enhancing its basic kit
I appreciate how quickly people chime in with advice
thank you all c;
May I ask how dark knight is ? I wont get it till I beat ARR but ive always loved that archetype tank wise
Itâs like an edgier version of Warrior with a lot more button pressing between main attacks
i mean so does warrior
is there any achievements or reason to do encore performances at the firmament piano game?
As Iâm going through msq for the first time, Iâve noticed all gear is progressing other than rings/necklace/jewelry. Am I doing something wrong?
Nah
thats just ARR
There's barely any accessories via story until 50
Gotcha. Should I be buying any? Or just not worry about it until 50?
Dont worry about it much
