Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this but I have been having trouble finding the right place and thought maybe someone could help me with my issue. Anyway, I recently built a desktop pc with dual monitor setup and came back to FFXIV. I run the game on my secondary monitor in full screen mode and have everything else on the primary display. I have Discord setup to flash the taskbar icon for certain notifications. However, this does not work when I have FFXIV running. I have tried with and without the Overlay turned on. In fact, if FFXIV is not in focus, the overlay doesn't work so I don't see my notifications at all. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this taskbar notification to work again??
twilit arch
i would throw that down in #technology-discussion

you can yeah, but you can use other cooldowns too
manic flare
Gunbreaker is too complicated, what's a more straightforward tank?
they are all about similar levels in complexity
halcyon grail
Of course
manic flare
paladin is not simple, it has a physical dps phase and a magical dps phase
warrior's is also a bit trickier, since it's first AOE isn't a circular AOE, but a conal one
halcyon grail
I'd say DRK or WAR if you really want a simple tank.
manic flare
so often times you dont grab all the mobs with the warrior's AOE
halcyon grail
The cone is less tricky for me and more just kinda... awkward?
thorny sinew
Of all four tanks, Warrior is probably the most "straightforward"
No MP bar to manage. You do your combo, build your bar, and just explode during burst.
delicate field
its just the gunbreaker has soe very specific combo chains that are lengthy
manic flare
it's just a 1-2-3 combo until you hit level 70
delicate field
too much weaving
thorny sinew
Yeah, Overpower being a cone will be something you'll have to adjust to using if you aren't familiar with it.
halcyon grail
Eh. A combo being long isn't that big a deal for me. Heck, the Renzokuken-ish thing is all mapped to one ability, simplifying it.
My biggest gripe with GNB is just that it gets its aoe cartridge spender so late

Which zone is easiest to get Memories of the Dying (2nd part), rather not run the raid. And is it like 50% chance to get from FATE?

Mhmm ok thx
twilit arch
very unlikely that they are going to add a new race, as they said back at the shb fanfests that viera/hroth are gonna be the last ones atleast for a while as they were a lot of work to get in even then @wooden frigate
wooden frigate
Oh I see, so I shouldnt be afraid to change my character now?
twilit arch
if they do add something, it will most likely be the appropriate gender counterpart for viera/hroth
but personally am really doubtful they'll add either of them
wooden frigate
I see, wouldnt really interest me anyway
Welp, ty, time to go back to the character creation
warped nest
Personally I'd go with tanks
But I haven't done any meaningful progress on deep dungeons
So what do I know

every job has solo'd HoH, but having low aetherpool is going to make soloing annoying

How do I make a macro that switches my element to what the enemy is weak to?
gleaming mist
/magiaauto
it can be set to either attack, where it swaps to their weakness when you target them, or defense which will set your magia to be strong against their affinity
you'll burn through your swaps pretty quickly though since you don't have access to logos actions yet
cursive abyss
Im keeping it on offensive for now

If Im a tank, do I want it on Defensive?
remote lintel
character config > hotbar > hide unassigned

if you’re soloing stuff near your level or just above, full offense is generally better.

you'll only really want defensive if you're pulling things greatly above your level or are mass pulling things

im so bad at decisions this is gonna take me a bit lol

you dont travel to other data centers?

Also, I'd say Twin Adder, but that's because I like them best.

just going to say, that if you want to change data centers you need to pay for a transfer

Is there an option to stick with the original one?

no youre changing your home world

Okay. I was wondering if it would throw a fit if I tried to connect to an NA server while in Europe. That's fine too.

in my experience, i played in an EU server for 2 years before finally transferring to a NA one. time zones and ping were torture

Approximately how long would it take, assuming I have all ARR content and no HW content (because I don't) to obtain a full set of Augmented Ironworks gear for both my SAM and WHM if I was to do the four roulettes I have that give them
remote lintel
if you only did roulettes prob a few days
zinc orbitBOT
dire prawn
Out of the content within the roulettes which ones would yield the most poetics
remote lintel
msq
twilit arch
msq
dire prawn
CM + Prae?
dire prawn
Even with how long they take it'd be a net gain over Lv 50 dungeons, trials and CT?
twilit arch
hmm
that would be debateable
since CT gives 100 poetics per run
and can be done in 15mis~
remote lintel
i mean ideally you do all roulettes
modest igloo
its 500 a run for msq so its up to you
twilit arch
they're talking about the dungeons themselves
dire prawn
i mean ideally you do all roulettes
Well yeah I'd do all four roulettes
I mean outside of the roulettes
warped nest
Yeah, don't do cm or prae on itself to farm poetics
twilit arch
given that CT is super poppin' for the relic atm
warped nest
You want to ride the msq roulette for its 300 bonus
twilit arch
i would run syrcus once you're done with roulettes

You can undersync all the Anima content. But you'll have to grind a lot of poetics, yeah.

depending on the item, it can take a couple of minutes. account bound items can take longer, sometimes an hour or two. can use the "request delivery" option when talking to a mail moogle to try and speed it up, but basically just have to be patient @raven burrow

I liked how the weapon looked like. Maybe on my sub I will go after it, but first, I need to do preparations, learn what do I need, how much time will it take me, where to go, etc.
Thank you again.
thorny sinew
And especially as a tank, if for some reason you aren't confidant in your ability to solo the various primal steps at 80 (but really, just sneeze at them) you can just queue for it normally too. It's all stuff in the roulettes anyhow, so you'll get clears.
leaden ginkgo
Do you think people will still go after relic anima even to this day?
twilit arch
yes
thorny sinew
Every day
twilit arch
it can be done very easily solo

Uh, two days maybe?
leaden ginkgo
oh
twilit arch
hmm
warped nest
@rigid wolf friendly reminder: make adjustments so it feels comfy. You don't want your summoner to feel different from your other Jobs
rigid wolf
Wait
thorny sinew
Poetics is the chokepoint, but as a tank you can farm them quickly
twilit arch
two days is unlikely
especially if you're just starting out
since you can't prebuy a lot
warped nest
I'd say around 2 weeks
leaden ginkgo
So, a fair guesstimate would be 2 weeks at least?
rigid wolf
Yea those images have empty slots Seems weird

twilit arch
2 weeks is more likely, maybe a little less
rigid wolf
The gamead images look legit?

you can make it so that unused slots aren't shown

The cross hotbar is fine, what I meant it, make adjustments to make it comfortable for you
thorny sinew
Hrm, I dunno. With the CT Spam we have going on right now, and the constant new player bonuses there and Aetheriochemical, you can amass a bloody ton of poetics in a day. Maybe two days is on the short guess, but if you're putting in 12 hour shifts, I'd think 2 weeks is on the high end. provided all you're doing is Anima stuff

But those can be largely solved since you are lvl 80

More than enough

Since you said you will be playing 8-12 hours a day, 30 days is more than enough

I don't have friends, no FC, no more stuff to do, not interested in home, just got the glowing armor from Eureka for my glamour, might as well focus my energy ONLY on Anima.

The real hard part for you would be the crystal sands
warped nest
Unless you happen to have a crafter or gatherer?

It is grindy because you need around 60-80 crystal sands
leaden ginkgo
oh
glacial isle
Do the Custom Deliveries each week. That'll give you a bunch of Blue Scrip and is prob. the fastest way
thorny sinew
Yeah, but if you constantly convert all your company seals into Moonstones, it helps with the grind. And if you have gil, you can marketboard some of it too.
leaden ginkgo
Good ideas.

Spend GC seals on the 4 items first

The arrow, cake, and I forgot the other two
Have the prices on the market gone up on those? Because if they're still like 10k a piece, you could just buy them and use the seals towards the sands.
glacial isle
thorny sinew
I am as well, but I'm just trying to think from a pure speed blitz standpoint
glacial isle
The Unidentifiable stuff are a bit l onger
unless you just have thousands of Poetics lying around

thorny sinew
Yeah. It's honestly going to come down to how much of the random old crap you have in your retainers prior to the grind.

Is there a recommendation for what level you want your aetherpool to be to start doing 51-60 solo?
twilit arch
hmm not sure, but pretty much as high as you can
higher aetherpool means more stats so
dire prawn
If your aetherpool is high enough can you solo 51-60 even from Lv 1? Or would you want to do it with random people also farming PotD

So, I have a really important question. I am about to move to a different country very soon, how will I log in to ffxiv? I heard account gets locked if its logged in from diff IP

if you don't have a 2fa on your account, then your account will be temporarily locked until you change the password
forest lark
But I will be able to access it nornally after changing password?
twilit arch

forest lark
Oh, I was just reading some reddit and someone said it gets locked if you log in from different ip
potent lava
whats the keybind entry called where you press / and it puts you into chat with a slash in it already? I accidentally unbound it
twilit arch
yes, its a temporary safety measure
because a difference in ip means that potentially someone else is logging into your account
which is why your account gets temporarily locked, and you can unlock it by simply changing the password
but if you add 2fa to your account, you don't have to worry about that
forest lark
Yeah, Of course that makes sense. Ok then I was like no how can I not play ffxiv xd but I guess its fine then if I can unlock it again
I'm not sure how to even add 2fa

there's two options of 2fa
you can either download the Square Enix security app to your phone or you can purchase the keyring

do you receive the armoury bonus for DoH/DoL too?
thorny sinew
Should I play paladin or dark knight?
Whichever one you prefer.
twilit arch
no @flat yew
flat yew
aww, okay, thanks
open ember
Which one
Crystarium or Cryptlurker
They're two different sets
If its Crystarium it requires 1 Puppets Bunker coin & 1 Copied Factory coin for augmentation items
If its cryptlurker you need the items from savage chests or savage books
Atm
fickle tree
I see, I thought I could get the materials with tokens too

For Cryptlurker, you will be able to. In 5.5

Do you need to get the Master Crafstman Books in order or can you skip straight to IV?
forest lark
Doesn't have to ve in order

You can get them in any order
glacial isle
thx
forest lark
As long as ur crafters are high level enoguh
leaden ginkgo
can someone link me to the specefic items you get from each grand company on ffxivcollection?
i cant seem to find them
twilit arch
the only master books that have to be gotten in order is 1 to 2
leaden ginkgo
ok i started becoming dum dum
twilit arch
since 2 requires an item from 1 to buy it
leaden ginkgo
what do i need to do to unlock it?
twilit arch
you need to exchange the luminous crystals to syndony
leaden ginkgo
oh...oops
twilit arch
for the umbral and astral nodules
leaden ginkgo
yeah i skipped every cutscene haha my fault.
So, I guess I must go and grind according to the file you gave to me?
twilit arch
mhm, shouldn't take too long to get a crystal from each zones
twilit arch
plus can use an alt job to do fates on if you still have something in the 50-60 range
leaden ginkgo
I was thinking of start playing PLD
Since, I REALLY wanted to get in to.
Bad idea?
twilit arch
up to you

for that stage, ye
fresh wing
is black mage the strongest dps class?
forest lark
I don't think there's such thing as strongest dps class, no?
fresh wing
i thought there is
forest lark
You play what you like and whats fun to you👍
forest lark
Someone experienced answer this mans question xd, again i think all classes are okay, theres not particulary stronger
twilit arch
in terms of raw dps, samurai and black mage are top dogs
thorny sinew
Well, in raw numbers, yeah. But there are contributing factors.
gritty oracle
BLM can deal disgusting damage, but it's insanely hard to optimize and it offers nothing to the party besides damage and addle
thorny sinew
But it's not just dps, it's rdps and adps too.
But if all you want to see is the big flashy hits on your screen, yeah. Those two all the way.
Or you know, fully buffed up final sting as a Blue for laughs.

leaden ginkgo
for that stage, ye
Sorry, again, for FATE hunting, do I have to keep doing until I get the drops or they are guarantee? I just did one and don't think I got any luminous stone.
twilit arch
gotta keep going til it drops
leaden ginkgo
oh ok
forest lark
Just do them until the drop, theyre not guaranteed
thorny sinew
If you play on potato, /gfx commands are your friend, yes.
twilit arch
you'll get a screen notification when it does
gritty oracle
Sorry, again, for FATE hunting, do I have to keep doing until I get the drops or...
It's RNG, but the droprate is fairly good. Keep farming fates.
forest lark
I had most grouble in azys la
leaden ginkgo
got it
forest lark
I had to do over 15 fates to get it drop
leaden ginkgo
oh lol
forest lark
Others were fairly easy
leaden ginkgo
well, it's cool, i still got time, one day left, i am trying to shove progress now so when I buy sub i will save a bit time and be ready about it. 😎
gritty oracle
That's RNG for you. Once I was doing it with a friend and I had 6 fire crystals by the time they got one
forest lark
This is why I dont want to do 3rd anima lux
leaden ginkgo
I don't really mind grinding so long as I can obtain it somehow lol
thorny sinew
Although I dunno, RDM LB3 is blinding enough that it's possible even a modern GPU would cry out in sympathy for potato players.
leaden ginkgo
thank you guys, back to grinding then
forest lark
I hate this step more than umbrites or light farm
leaden ginkgo
-sorry for my questions, you are all awesome!
thorny sinew
thank you guys, back to grinding then
If you get extra, make sure you save them. You can prep other weapon turn ins in advance that way if you want
forest lark
At least these I have stacked at retainers alfdy xd
gritty oracle
You can hit two relics with one stone and do your resistance weapon alongside the anima
leaden ginkgo
If you get extra, make sure you save them. You can prep other weapon turn ins i...
good idea as i wanted to play PLD on my sub
maybe when i get the weapon for drk
i will do PLD run
forest lark
Tbh anima lux is kind of easy after the 1st one, but oh god, I did zeta one
Qnd never again
thorny sinew
If you get past the books, it's just a matter of grind. But the books are something special.
forest lark
Yeah, i mean books wouldnt even be that hard if it didnt ask for specidic fates
slate arrow
I'm not a PC ffxiv player, but blm looks like a gpu killer
Actually this game is quite light on the GPU because there's virtually no particles or anything, everything is a very elaborately pre animated
except for clothing physics there isn't even really any physics going on in engine
forest lark
Oh, thats great then, I always thought ffxiv would overheat pc from all the flash xd
slate arrow
If it did the PS4 would have died ages ago

What always makes my pc sound like a helicopter is zone changes. Especially Limsa.

Congrats
thorny sinew
Grats Agios! You're off to a start!
leaden ginkgo
-question: about the dungeon runs whenever I have to start them, is my first time doing them MUST be in party, meaning, legit runs?
Or, I can unsync the heck out of them?
forest lark
U can do them unsync
thorny sinew
Yep, you can unsync them
forest lark
I did everything unsync
forest lark
Aw, I love you too
strange coral
Hard mode isn't really difficulty thing for the dungeons. It's more like the sequel to that dungeon. Same-ish map with different mobs and bosses
Just another dungeon at the end of the day
leaden ginkgo
ok ok, sorry, for real now, no more questions - I guess? - going back to farm the rest, because, if i keep talking here, i won't progress, just beat that fat bird, man, you should have seen it with your own eyes, it was fatter than fat.
gritty oracle
Tbh in my experience, under 80 it's kinds hardish to unsync the dungeons and even at 80, the trials took too goddamn long to solo
thorny sinew
You don't need to apologize for asking questions. That's what this channel is for.
leaden ginkgo
Risky thing but: if I stream here my progress on a channel, will anyone like to watch and potentially give me tips once in a while? lmao I am bad, I know.
forest lark
I only had issues with last 4 trials for the very last anima step
forest lark
I had to put up a party finder for it
remote lintel
i mean the voice channels are pretty active
also if you mean streaming to this server you need to have boosted it
forest lark
I couldnt really solo containment and birsmack
leaden ginkgo
Maybe I will stream only if I really stuck somewhere and / or might need some tips/guidance in real time action, depending on situation.
I tend to avoid to keep bothering people.
thorny sinew
I only had issues with last 4 trials for the very last anima step
I've had Sephirot as my Trial Roulette for the past four days, never a new person in sight. So I'm guessing people are working on Anima weapons.
forest lark
Oh, I didn't think of doing roylettes ir queuing for it, cause queues would be long since it wasnt for a healer. I did find somone and 2 of us finished it quickly haah
leaden ginkgo
Just joined my first grand company, whats my best way to get seals
thorny sinew
Fates, turning in the daily requested items (also a ton of craft/gather exp this way) and just turning in all the green/pink/blue junk you get from your dungeons
And I think you unlock a GC hunting log when you join? It had 3 ranks and gives seals (I think, it's been years) f
leaden ginkgo
i did! nice
thorny sinew
Hunt log is a one off though. Once you clear it, it's done.
leaden ginkgo
also, by turning in my dungeon loot, you mean i just go and sell it to them?
yeah i know that
thorny sinew
Yeah, the NPC next to the quartermaster has an option called custom deliveries. There is a heading inside called Expert
It'll let you turn in most coloured gear
gritty oracle
You have to be a fairly high rank to unlock that tho
strange coral
You need to rank up to access that

Quick Question for Anima Light Grind in A9S
leaden ginkgo
yeah its blank for me
leaden ginkgo
it seems just finishing my msq's also give me seals, enough for my chocobo anyway so thats nice
gritty oracle
Nope, have to have relic equipped during exit so relic class only
thorny sinew
Well. Fair. My apologies, it's been a long time since I didn't have access.
leaden ginkgo
no worries! the help is always nice
gritty oracle
Also due to forgetting to equip the relic, it's just safer to have it on all the time
Wait, you have to have the relic on when you finish the fight, so theoretically you could equip the better weapon to fight Faust and then re-equip the relic for the main man, but that's just pointless
thorny sinew
Anima just needs it on exit, no? You can thrash the boss, and then weapon swap before you leave.
Zodiac needs it on for the kill.
obsidian patio
Depends on the exact step
If this is the step where you do a bunch of specific dungeons in a row, then equip before leaving.
If it’s light grinding it must be equipped for the final boss
thorny sinew
It's baffling to remember all these nuances while ShB just has the whole "Have the quest, that's it" concept
obsidian patio
Well SE likely assumes players just have it equipped the entire time for the duty
leaden ginkgo
am i able to rename my chocobo later O_O

Three probably newb questions please! 1. What does it mean by “all” or “others” over my hop bar? 2. What does it mean when I have a dashed yellow box blinking over a skill? 3. How do you level chocobo is it just shared exp when they are summoned with you or is it time summoned?
Thank you in advance!
obsidian patio
The chocobo’s experience is entirely separate from yours. They earn it when you kill stuff.

Flashy flash question: Do I need MORE than 1 of each luminous crystal?

When would the ast use light speed
strange coral
During movement. Also good for faster raises when swiftcast is on CD
spare plinth
Do healers adjust the tab key so that it’s easier to heal the tank or party before quickly switching to boss?
Or do they have either tank or boss as focus target and then have a key to press to switch and back?
strange coral
Personally I'm the type that clicks the party list when I need to target them
Some people use the F keys. Controller users use the dpad usually to cycle through the party.
warped nest
Controller player
Dpad down + soft targeting makes it very quick to squeeze in a heal

And the quest is still locked lol
I think I might need to go and talk to synosmth
remote lintel
you need to trade the crystals for the nodes
leaden ginkgo
You know what's confusing? They SHOULD have made a quest mark here on her.
Instead of locking you out without direction.
If it weren't for you guys, I would be wasting time.

Part 1: Complete!
"This stage requires you to complete 10 dungeons with your new relic. You only need your Animated Weapon equipped AS YOU EXIT, and all 10 dungeons CAN be un-synced. You MUST complete these dungeons in the order listed below."
So, I can enter with my current weapon
but before I yeet out, I HAVE to switch to the artifact wep?
strange coral
Yes
leaden ginkgo
That's really cool!
I can't remember, do I have enough time before I leave the dungeon?
I think there's a portal.
And a timer.
strange coral
You don't leave immediately when the boss dies, so yes, there's time
leaden ginkgo
ok nice!!!
ok he asked me to equip it before i take the quest, what's the button to open the duty finder?
-I am sorry, I really forgot everything including buttons.
strange coral
On controller, it should be the main menu and then duty menu
strange coral
If you're going unsynced make sure you go to the cog icon at the top left and enable Undersized Party in the window that appears
plain python
sometimes, I can open a mining node and just leave it there, as it will reset after I read some more nodes. Other times, it refuses to reset. Is there a trick there?
