The ratio traded isn't good
Could make more money off selling glamour prisms
hmm....
The two different exchange options for ARR primals
You can buy out the cheaper materials and manually farm for the expensive ones

hello I'm new at game and wanna ask which server has most population
What professions are good for making money later on and for making myself outfits? (can be seperate answers)
really the answer is all of them
since uhhh
take weaver for example
makes a lot of tops and stuff some of which can go for a lot
but those tops will need things like leather, alchemist items, maybe some goldsmith items
and unless you level those other crafters to make those items you'd need to buy those materials to make the top
and that can cost a fair bit
and really eats into any money you make
can anyway
doesn't really matter for eu, both datacenters are basically the same population and all instanced content like dungeons raids etc. are cross-server inside a datacenter, server choice only matters for something like joining the same free company (guild) as your friends, everything else is basically cross-world to the point where population (which is already very balanced) doesn't matter and you're better off choosing a preferred world that has a double exp bonus
thank you so much for your information
Ultra stupid question but, if I do this again after the daily, I won't get these, right?
3360 seals.
-Only daily reward, right?
If you queue as a healer, you get the healer in need reward. Any in need bonus will always apply when playing that role.
Oh...
Well, it's okay, I don't play healer and don't have any healer up yet at these lvls/geared up
I'll have my sights on this if it ever asks tank.
And, of course, will do daily.
It will indeed show tank. It goes back and forth depending on queues.
has anyone else tried using raytracing on FFXIV? what's their results I'm like 3 versions behind of the latest update and it still somehow looks great with ludite. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613036083336315004/813356465699815454/unknown.png
From time to time an in need bonus will be DPS as well, although that's quite rare for the leveling roulette. For seals you would be better off running higher end stuff anyhow, since you can turn the gear into the grand company directly for 1k+ seals each. Honestly just zipping through level 50 or 60 dungeons at a breakneck pace on an 80 unsynced will get you a decent amount of seals from the boss chests if you're just in dire need of farming them.
that's gameplay, not a screenshot preset

Guys. I just found out that you can speed up cutscenes. REVELATION. Pressing space brings up the instructions I think. But it’s basically tab slides a slider to faster and shift+tab slides slider slower.
It speeds up the auto text advance
Yes. Anything to speed any of them up. In any way.
it doesn't really do anything for unskippable stuff like in castrum/praetorium
and for normal cutscenes you can just escape -> skip or click through the dialogue faster
This was my next Q. Damn.
If you escape you can’t read the text outside though right? To see what happened?
Correct you’ll have to watch the cutscene to see the text in it
Is there anyway to sell items that have the binding state in the mb
No
Trash it
Rip
Is there any way to move the camera to off the center from my head?
No
I believe you can move it higher up
But you can't shuffle it to your left or right
I'm not sure if picking disciple of war or gladiator armor is better as a paladin, both pieces ae
I can but i hate that my head is still centered in when I zoom in close enough
are better than what I currently have
It barely matters as you will get better stuff soon
But if you must, probably Gladiator
understood
The general "War" stuff is for all the non casters. So the specific tank class gear will have higher defensive stats for you. But yeah, you'll zip to 30 quickly anyhow
in ARR, gear tends to come in 'DoW' 'DoM' and 'tanks and drg for some reason'. Take the one specced for tanks if you have a choice, but when you hit HW gear will be properly specced for tanks
Gearing are very loose before level 40 ish
You will see healers and mages sharing gears with both Mind and Intelligence stat
Yeah. Relic of a time from when stat allocation was a very different ballgame
Once you get to level 50 gears (end of vanilla ARR)
Almost everything becomes pretty clear cut
On who uses what
how long do you estimate the HW story to be? (reaching 60 and unlocking shire gear) and then after that, what would also be the post patch time?
Leveling story: about the same or a bit shorter than ARR story
Patch story: same or slightly longer than ARR patch story
can someone help me? i can't login and getting a error code in jp
Assuming you didn't go any side stuff, like getting warring triad
The patch story has less quests but more cutscenes and dialogue
While it might have more cutscenes maybe no way it has more dialogue and even then ARR patch quest stuff should probably include the alliance raid and other things so post ARR definitely has a lot more content anyway
is the plot timer for when you can buy it, completely random?
or can you determine when you can start buying?
completely random and invisible
so no way of determining it have fun
I don't know the exact values it can differ between but it's pretty fucking massive
Did they nerfed the chest spawn rate in leverquests?
I want to say between a few minutes to like, two days

at least the maximum is a single day but I'm pretty sure it's two at max
I think it's better than the old system but yeah it sucks ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Are there any mounts specific to DoL classes? *Not tied to Firmament
Well, tradecrafts yes but DoL specifically I don't think so?
Ocean fishing has a shark mount reward
Oh. Yeah
and then you also have...say, the Qitari beast tribe quest mount
Which ones?
Ehll tou deliveries mount
pterodactyl
Note these are also DoL
Namazu beast tribe mount would also count since you can do that as DoH/DoL
Ooh, this is the Great Serpent mount! Thanks, I know what I'm aiming for. There's also the Namazu mount, now that I see
I can't think of a DoL exclusive outside the ocean fishing shark and the Qitari one though
yes, I was citing general tradecraft ones
which there are like, a dozen or so of
is the shark one hard to get
Not really, if you know how fsh works
also much easier at max level
i got fsh maxed but havent tried ocean fishing yet
Having enough levels for double hook makes it markedly easier mainly
Do the apartments have any difference depending on location?
nice, ill check it out
sorry for the late reply, i went on and did research. I am wanting to know the optimal chemistry and party composition for adventure squadrons
Just wondering but the gear the WOL wear in trailers. Does it exist in game?
The optimal chemistries are going to depend on what you, personally want out of your missions. Similarly, the optimal party composition is going to depend largely on the stat requirements for each mission. Generally you want a minimum of two stats "green" (flagged missions being the exception as they require that all three stats be either met or exceeded in order to succeed). @frank wigeon
Yeah they’re all job-specific sets at the various level caps.
Oh cool. Do you know the name for the paladin?
Gallant/Valor for the level 50 stuff, IIRC
Unless you mean the one from the Endwalker trailer. That'll be in 6.0
if you mean from the endwalker trailer, it will be the lvl90 set
Oh so there is a specific set you get at the max level? For every class he wore like samurai?
Yes
Yeah. You get a coffer.
What is easiest way to find a guild on current server? is there like a tab to look for them or
Yep.
Its always the job/artifact gear
How do I get the coffer for dragoon and dark knight?
By getting to the level.
Do their job quests
50/60/70
By doing the job quests, like any other
Oh okay!
They made it really straightforward to get the iconic looks for us. It's nice.
80 stuff you get from not-Gerolt in ||The Tempest||
!faq communityfinder
Wait so it's the same for archer? Cause I haven't seen one similar to the 1.0 version
The 45/50 gear for BRD is.
For his archer, I believe he was wearing the male hyur race starting gear
In the really old trailer with the morbol? That’s just generic gear IIRC
Oh, the WoL version in the old trailer. Yeah.
and guilds are server locked? (not cross server?)
Correct
Yes
Man WOL be taking up all the tank jobs
what is the difference between complete edition and collector edition for pc and does it worth to buy collector
Complete edition is all the expansions and the base game
collector edition is whatever that SPECIFIC expansion is plus some in-game bonus items
Collector only adds vanity items on top
You can always upgrade to collector by paying the difference on mogstation
^
is there any list to see collector edition's features, google didn't help me well
No
out of curiosity
Are you looking at the complete edition and the complete collector's edition?
You have to be to see a 40 euro difference
I looking for both
I just wanna know if its worth to pay €40 more cus I have no idea about those cosmetic stuffs

Some of those items are really nice but yeah I wouldn't bother
as LC said, you can digitally upgrade to collector's at any time
and you can pick and choose which ones you want
how much I have to pay for upgrade to collector's complete edition later €40 again?
Yo why is Tsukuyomi's Moonlit going for 3m in the Market? Anyone has a rough estimate of how much I’d cost to just make it with the materials needed? (Can’t check market right now, not home)
Last week they went for like 2m
How can I set my status to busy?
It's going for higher probably because no one else is marking it lower
Ppl are randomly trading me
I want to stop that
Oh nvm it's just /busy
And how do I revert it?
its 80$ for full upgrade without discount
I see thank you all for the informations
Cause it includes all the collectors edition for ARR, HW, SB and SHB
but you can buy one of each for 20$
I think I'm going to buy complete edition instead, its cheaper and I didnt like those cosmetic stuffs 
That's going to vary from server to server. iirc, the Tsukuyomi mats are the only ones that can't be desynthed, so you have to rely on rare drops for that. But individual server markets for nice glamours are going to fluctuate pretty regularly. Just because something was 2M last week doesn't mean that the price will necessarily stay the same or go down if it's a high-demand item.
should I use my Allagan Tomestones of Poetics or save them?
Just use em, since there is no cap on how many you can get them per week
Use them. Always. You'll cap over and over and over again
There's no good reason not to use them, especially if you still need leveling gear for 50/60/70 for any job.
id save if you knew what you were going to save up for, but if you don't have any plans, then you can use it all you want.
I mean, you can easily get 1k per day just for doing roulettes, so there's no real reason to save them.
i mean if you were like lvl49 and going to buy poetic gears right after
If you're able to earn poetics when you have a job at 49, then you're able to farm them. You can't earn poetics before reaching the end of 2.0.
CM and Praetorium are the first instances that reward poetics.
Hello ! Can someone recommend me a cool sever on NA ??
Wellllll... You can get some Poetics from the Wanderer's Palace before CM
It's not recommended because the amount per run is absolutely shit
Don't you only get like, 10 per run or something?
20
Only 30 runs to get a weapon!
"Cool" being a subjective measure... no. Servers are servers. Just avoid Balmung and Mateus and you'll be fine.
I meant with a good number of riding and less toxicity 😎
Again, you're asking for subjective measures. There are no public server numbers (and since everything is datacenter based, that's not really a thing people care about), and the general population toxicity levels are about the same as anywhere else in the game.
Alright , thanks
sadly, ffxiv does not have a gauge per server on how toxic it is
I have a question about potd. I’m going to start it today. My question is that do all classes share the same lvl in potd or do you have to lvl them individually?
If you start at floor 51. You're automatically lv60
Ahh ok, thanks
i see that SE really doesn't want you making a garlean wol
i have tried a good 20 different latin names without a title even and i still get a very specific error
Coins. Cosmetics. Also it gives mettle and xp now too.
5 memories, coins, ton of exp if you aren't 80. Mettle. Tomes if you're 80
It takes like 20mins if people actually bothered to use Essenses
Shits a snooze fest with how braindead it is
How do i update fflog
Error: This version (4.4) is incompatible. Download the latest version of the desktop application.
Do I have to remove everything from company chest before disbanding?
you can't disable cutscenes for the first time you view them
also, transition cutscenes are always on regardless
what about after
It should be in character settings, I think
ok thx

Is the daily exp bonus of roulettes based on your real level? Or you get always the same amount, regardless your level?
So after all this time I haven’t played arcanist. I play with a controller when your pet is out instead of my hotbaf swapping between 1-2 then pet it’s 1-pet is the pet hotbar needed or can it be disabled?
I don't recall if it can be disabled but honestly I just always used R1+O for example to force hotbar 2
Muscle memory and whatnot
That’s what I was thinking
Sort of annoying it’s hard forced and isn’t in order lol oh well
Hey guys, if I buy the FINAL FANTASY® XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION [PC DOWNLOAD] will I be able to upgrade to the collectors edition at a reduced fee later on?
yes you can pay the difference in cost to digitally upgrade at any time
oh awesome, thank you for your quick answer 
It scales off the level of the class you're doing the roulette on.
hello someone can help me to finish the raid "The dragon necks"
Ok thanks👍
No tank as in "no tank in the party" or no tank as in "none of the 48 people in the instance queued as tank"?
No tank at all
None of the groups have tank
Is it ordained and provoke one for casters if I wang ti tank as rdm lol
I think you just... pray. TBs are going to wreck any non-tank, even with a tanking essence, I think.
is there some way to make this text smaller, reposition it, or outright remove it?
Yeqh, everyone just left after the 1st boss
@flat yew scaled based on UI scale in character settings > UI I think
ah, so I'd have to scale all of my UI down to make it smaller?
probably
thanks!
How do I upgrade ifrits rapier
wdym by upgrade
I had a shiva's katana then upgraded it to it's glowy version with extreme mats but I don't remember where I did that

Is it Mandatory to overmeld Gear to craft the 510 sets?
yes
what happens when a tank uses LB?
Its party wide mitigation
does it do any damage?
No
is there any reason for the tank to use a LB
When its mandatory to do so
It's a defensive cooldown. It's only really used at very specific times in a select few fights
Or to cheese mechanics
which ones?
ie: SoS has a mandatory tank LB
a12 normal even
Ehh
O11
^ Etc
People tank LBed the second tiger add in Byakko EX and M/F LB phase to skip mechanics
When would you tank LB on O11? Isn't it just dps LB for the dps check?
More so in savage for the ultimate
Ah
Can you accidentally buy a duplicate of an already learned master recipe?
no
tks frens
Hey, there's a mount thats a horse and it has like purple bits on it, what's it called?
looks relatively new
not the primal one
That one?
nah, it's got like clothy bits on it that are purple
That one has purple cloth that comes out when it's flying
There's one where it's visible even not in flight
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-Xu_CUSGIk thats the one ali posted yeah
I like the "Dark" design (looks a good addition to my dark horses collection with Raigo and Sleipnir) of this mount, and the purple "wings" really suits my character's theme well. I'll use it a lot! Enjoy riding your Grani! (mmh)
FINAL FANTASY® XIV: A Realm Reborn™

Grani - ShB CE item.
Hi, I just unlocked Eureka Anemos. Is it still worth doing, or should i just skip it and go on with the story to unlock Bozja?
Only if you want relics from therr
and only for glamour
Okay, thank you
would doing dungeons be better or potd for leveling up my dark knight
cuz i usually never get past room 40
Dungeons
Dungeons
Potd is for when your ques are slow
Tank queue. Zip zap those dungeons.
Roulette's for the daily bonus, followed by spamming your highest unlocked non 50/60/70 dungeon. Rinse and repeat.
What would y'all rate the grind to get the element fending armor +1 from a 1-10
going through eureka to get to hydatos is the hardest part, but getting the actual armor is pretty trivial
the grind can be pretty tedious, but you can like watch something while doing stuff
anima wepaon grind is by far the easiest
the only thing hard about it was having the poetics ahead of time
it's nowhere near as long as eureka
getting eureka elemental armor from scratch is literally a 1-2 month long process
if you grind hardcore every day you could do it in 2 weeks i guess
but imo it's not as tedious since eureka at least helps make it slightly less monotonous than the zodiac weapon grind
Hardest part is crystal sand
I'm stuck on this part for days
which is (imo) the worst relic weapon grind because of how boring it is
crystal sand is piss easy with any crafter
I've 51 crafter which sucks
well
that's why it's taking you days
easiest way to get crystal sand is to use crafter scrips

I'm trying my best to level up via GC trade or crafting stuffs
But it takes forever to level up
even better if you spend a week's worth of custom delivery scripts on it
Crafting Levequests to level
you can just level in ishgard lol
have you done ishgard restoration?
you know, the minigame that gets you from 20-80 in a crafter in like 3 hours
Ya gather then trade
you can spam leves for 1-20 then hit the firmament
someone who knows what they are doing can do 20-80 in literally 2-3 hours, that's not an exaggeration
I don't excell at crafts
I'm just getting my CP to 310 so I can follow a guide
gathering is also same for BTN/MIN, but for FSH you have to level till 53 to unlock cloudfishing first
you wouldn't want to do gathering scrips for crystal sand anyway
i guess you could
crafting scrips are far easier
i don't think you can unlock custom deliveries until you have a 60 crafter
even though there are custom deliveries for gatherers
Crafting sucks cos it burns shards
And shards cost a fortune
shards are actually pretty dirt cheap
but again you can just do ishgard crafts from 20-60
Not true, you can do it without having a crafter levelled
It's like 48k in my dc
yeah in that case get to 60 and go unlock custom deliveries
Ishgard crafts don't require shards?
that's like 2k yellow scrips
they require shards bu shards are not that expensive lol
48k
48k is probably for a stack of like 1000
Ya
You only need 50 I think for custom deliveries
do you know how long 1000 shards last lol
I mean I sold 200 Cobalt ingots and burnt through them all
Source: I levelled BTN from 52-54 with zhloe turnins
Ig I'll buy a bit of shards and do ishgrad crafts
did you already have it unlocked from another class?
How do u even farm shards except gardening
because the quest to even unlock it requires a 60 in doh/dol i'm pretty sure
gathering, tahmeed
If you gather mats in Diadem for Ishgard, you can also blast sprites for shards while you're there
Sprites?
Nah, I'm levelling omnigatherer first and BTN is the first I do each tier
Wait no, you need 1 60 at least
nevermind
Stormblood custom deliveries you can also do from lv 60, though
M'naago ones at least
Elemental mobs that spawn during weather events in Diadem. Each one gives a bunch of shards/clusters/crystals
Although the elemental type is random
Yea it's quite a bit, but I don't remember approx count. It's been a while
Note: to unlock level 62 custom deliveries (Kurenai), you need to finish the Kurenai side questline. It is marked
not
and takes place in Sui-no-Sato.
from the market board, is it possible to buy only a certain amount of stuff for sale insstead of the entire stack?
No
^
how long does the wait time between crafting actions have to be? I saw some macros using 2 seconds but that seems to lead to some actions just not triggering on my end
Sometimes it can be worth buying the full stack, keeping what you want, and just reselling the rest though
sometimes
generally it's like, actual actions 3 second wait, abilities like inner quiet 2 second wait
generally in my macros I just do 3 second wait for all of them which helps with ping and stuff
¯_(ツ)_/¯
can I check my ping anywhere?
- Open CMD (Windows key + R, Type CMD and hit enter)
- Type: ping -n 20 [Datacenter ip address] without the brackets
- Press enter
PD: To check your Datacenter IP adress go to https://arrstatus.com/
ahh okay that might actually make some sense then; I'm in germany connected through a university network
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
That'll do it
right next to servers and uni networks are absurd
Its "!daily" and "!weekly"
is it somehow possible to hand in ishgard restoration items in bulk?
What's a good way to farm Crystal Sands?
is party finder my only option to try and find a group for the copied factory? cuz this que is like dead af
depends on what you have available @scarlet kindle , crafting is best then gathering, levequests can be good too, and poetics obv
and DF should work eventually for nier raids, it's just not gonna be fast
PF would likely take much longer to form a party. DF will be slow since (afaik) the coins aren't needed for any current gear, and alliance roulette is being flooded with Syrcus Tower, Void Ark, and Rabanastre for the ShB relic grinds.

it'll definitely pick up closer to 5.5, but yeah atm a lot of people are using free time to farm relics and stuff and there's no real reason to do nier raids(and they're not in alliance roulette for chars that are lower than 80 obv)
but during primetime if you afk 30-50mins in it, it should pop I'd think
i just want my 2b coffer
idk what prime time is but ive sat in que multiple occassions for more than an 1h and 30min
and peope eventually leave cuz it takes so damn long

well primetime for the region you're playing, which is usually 7PM to 11PM or so
Prime time is late afternoon/evening. When people are more likely to be online because they aren't working or at school.
Sometimes in the morning too, right after reset, because those that are online are likely to do their roulettes after reset.
i work nights and before ffxiv i was playing GBF for like 2 years so i was use to JP prime time which is like mornings for me. ill just try this weekend i guess
ty
Should I use emerald rapier over augmented kaw order
probably not, but i would check the balance just to make sure
ye
what are these?
Sightseeing logs
oh, so i stand on them and lookout?
do i have t stand on the circle or look at it? it's not working
Stand ontop of the orb and target nothing
Guys, I started playing yesterday with a Conjurer, but at lvl 15 I created another char, a Thaum. So, right now I'm just doing main quests, using the gear they give me and nothing else. I found out the Jobs quests or something (blue quests), in fact I'm going to take my first skill from the quest. Am I doing good until now? It's everything new for me
Job quests and story are top priority
is lvling a 71-80 faster in bozjan than doing dungeons
no, but its pretty decent speed
So do I go on like that?
Anything else I should consider? For example, in the first char, by pressing U, I could do some dungeons, but with the second char, by pressing U nothing happens
stuff unlocks SOMETHING so consider doing them (outside of other class unlocks unless you want those)
You haven't unlocked dungeons yet
First dungeon is via msq lv15 ish, just after travelling to other cities
Story literally locks EVERYTHING in the game
🎺🎻
blue ui monkas
Ff7 - once I saw it I couldn’t go back ... micromanaging options is its own@mini game and i@ just starting to understand it like the game....
So I'm going to do job and main. What about my first mount?
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
I have three mounts and I didn’t buy any
I did free three times before joining
^^ same lol
anyone knows if i can get the options menu on a party member when clicking on ps4 next to party, not next to player?
like static option menu
the free trial is a really good deal so understandable
Do you continue with your free char or you star a new one?
I’m so cheap I was like how can I get the most out of this free time so I called a friend and had them help@me at start—- it’s own mini game
You can continue
I continued. But I made a new one to remember the basics
this may not be the right place to ask, but what's this rock in Lower La Noscea~?
It's used for a specific class quest IIRC
That Clouds rock
ohhhh cool beans!! thanks c:
Well
More like it's a place of religious significance
I can't think of a good term for it except like, a pilgramage site
where a person might go to pray to X God/Goddess
For example you have to go to all these "marks" in the wedding quest
They were also used in a 1.0 quest where you had to go to them to pray for help from the gods
Interesting
they're also shown in the 2.0 CGI intro I think, like when you see the Scions praying in various places to help Louisoix
Yeah that too
i have a pf up for saintly beam number 86 sigmascap v.1 phantom train if anyone wants to join
anyone knows if i can get the options menu on a party member when clicking on ps4 next to party, not next to player?
just dpad down the party list and then press square?
unless that counts as "being next to the player"
@wintry chasm yes thats what i mean
the menu appears next to player tezn
then
not at the party list
oh I see
:/
I get what you mean now
i have a friend which got it like i want
so it is possible
but i can't seem to find the option
so the window is always all over the place, depending where the player is ....
Maybe you can move it in hud layout settings but aside from that I can't think of a possible way on PS4
not off the top of my head no
k
might be Char Settings > UI Settings > Display Action Help (At Cursor/Fixed position) maybe?
not too sure
I know this works on mouse but don't know about gamepad if it does anything
that's for the action info and merchant info on items
i thought also that
i got it as fixed
Which is faster to queue with for 8 man dungeons/trials, Tank or DPS?
tank
DPS is only faster on 24man since there's only 1 tank spot per party, and even then sometimes it's not
Great, thank you
So I'm someone who started just around the new year and beelined to 80, enjoying the MSQ on the way & doing my job quests.
What uh
Should I just go do all the content quests/flight unlocks at this point?
so
Flight unlocks 10000000000000000000000%
I also highly recommend doing all the raids and trial series of an expansion before moving onto the next
unlocks extra roulette stuff, good stories, can be important for unlocking stuff later on, and some of them get indirectly mentioned in MSQ
yadda yadda
so roll back & start banging out all the Hards & Extremes & Bahamut's Coil stuff and then do the same in HW etc?
well hang on I'll get there lol
In terms of optional dungeons generally that's more of a "up to you" thing
Extremes you can ignore too if you want
so roll back & start banging out all the Hards & Extremes & Bahamut's Coil stuff and then do the same in HW etc?
So are you in ARR story still and somehow level 80?
oh no I've wrapped 5.2 I think?
okay okay
just checking since you talked about doing the hard trials which you'd already have done
but yeah like, absolutely just MSQ & Job Quests only, pretty much
but yeah coils is the one kind of exception to the "you should do raids of an expansion before moving onto the next" which you kinda didn't do anyway so...I guess do whatever order you want I guess????
coils unlike the other raids doesn't have a normal and a savage difficulty, it ONLY has a savage difficulty so it's difficult by default which is why no one runs it normally
guys I bought the verison on steam, how does the game kow that I bought the full verison? it's still showing that i'm on free trial.
if you want to do coils, and it does have a nice story, you'd want to use party finder and do the coil fights unsynced
For DoL at level 50 is there any armor sets you can get?
Yeah but honestly I'd level to level 51 and grab that 51 set, easier to get, better stats
Im level 52 atm
did you register the codes on mogstation?
wheres the set from?
can get it off a vendor in Ishgard, craft it, or marketboard
probably not
alright ill check it out
then that's why Pablooo
I know i'm asking too much but coudl you teach me ?
uhhh
go to the steam library
find FFXIV
right click the game and there is an option I believe to show keys
ok here, than I go to the mog site right ?
one big code divided in 5 parts
so when you log in...
should be that nice big button there
or something to that effect
i don't have it
screenshot then
transfer to regular service
tbh I always forget what it looks like on free trial
I always make the assumption it looks like the way it does when you aren't on free trial
so that's my bad
don't be sorry you helping a lot
yeah, tyvm for the advice
I assume I should click on windos right ? and enter registration code
yes just use windows
I managed tho @wintry chasm thank you so much man I really appreciate your time
regardless of whether you click on windows or steam, its effecitvely the same thing
because you'll be inputting a code
I just spent that last 3 minutes panic searching through forums
add that as a faq
Don't ask me
as !faq expansionregister
I'm not a mentor anymore
@tender estuary
Lol thats hank
...
i don't do faqs, that's wynne
hello
that's Wynne yeah

smh Channy doesn't even know the other mentors
okay bye
I just wanted to make kael do them
I still have to get on that to make some tech related faqs for common problems
im a bad mentor 😦
any tips on doing this lol...
Do potd, do not use a pomander of intuition, then hope that you find it.
but like... it basically never happens D:
You just waste a lot of time standing on spaces until you find it
Apparently there is a reddit discussion about it https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/7ilrif/data_collection_of_accursed_hoard_banded_coffer/?st=jf0asg83&sh=c95bca93
There's a few guides I've seen that have pictures or maps of where to check
Intuition tells where only the horde it. To see everything use a safety
Thats how i got that achivement
safety reveals the horde?
wow that's news to me, i'll go try it
Should have remembered better
Hey guys, quick question: Did they nerfed/changed the chest spawn rate in leverquests?
Safety removes traps from floor effects
@leaden ginkgo no
Sight shows things on floor. Edit: or i just really had no life now im doubting myself
gonna go on a hunch and guess that agios is trying to amber farm 👀
^
are you doing the leves from ishgard
i spent like 20 leve currency yesterday and only got like 3 amber xD
Probably since vilekin hasnt been removed like aetheral weapons or trash potions
Yeah, the lvl 54 one, puppet show, and doing exactly what the person in the video does, wasted 30 allowances and no chest anywhere.
Feels very demotivating lol
The chest location can vary on spawning
i think im gonna stop trying to amber farm, and instead just get the chests as I actually do the leves for the unique levequest achievements
Chests are rng
there's multiple places the chest can spawn
-great taste in your pfp.
I am checking everywhere to make sure before I reset.
Maybe I am just unlucky. 🤷♂️
can houses go up for sale at literally any minute during their devaluing process?
yes
okay, thank you
haha
what about new wards (like ishgard for instance)? do they all go up for sale immediately? Or are they treated as just all evicted at the same time, so each one is random?
new wards are immediately available for purchase
the hidden timer is only for houses that have been demolished
Burden of the Son soloable?
waking up at 3AM the morning new housing wards open to be awake and caffeinated enough for the mad dash to grab a plot as soon as the servers come online is a rite of passage
i wonder how soon all the plots in ishgard will be gone and we're back to housing savage again
about an hour no joke
u serious?
Yes
most plots are gonna be gone within an hour of server's coming back, yes
is that what shirogane was like when it opened?
On big servers can expect campers during maintenance
because everyone who is going to want to get a house is going to log in IMMEDIATELY
they'd be the first ones in
until they choose to meet the demand for housing with enough housing, every new ward is going to be like that
because they'd snipe that log in button
damn i guess it's time to invest in a launcher that auto logs you in
(disclaimer: i used camping method during shirogane savage. It worked)
how do you camp during maintenance?
Didnt get what i wanted but got a different small
During housing preview the wards will be open but unable to buy. Just log out right next to the placard
If restrictions are like now itll prioritize people who transfer an existing house
is the nightmare mount rare ?
Yes like 3% drop rate
Yes, lower drop rng than regular pony
By the way, what dps class is doing that brown and green circle AoE move that is so sweet on damaging enemies?
Ninja?
Yes it's Doton from ninjas
ye doton
oh okay
It could be the smn skill too because you said green but that may be pushing it
I don't think I've ever seen Doton from the top down.
You're on limited
maybe because i changed settings
It doesn't show the full effect unless your battle effects are on full
Even my own Dotons on full settings are the poop circle.
Same, although I always thought of it as a sand swirl
I want to play co op with my brother. Can we do dungeons as only two players? Or will we be forced to qeue up with other players?
Have to get others, you cant feasibly duo at equal level
Until are strong enough to faceroll/unsync content have to get 2 randoms
Ok, thanks :)
Is it possible to get ai on your team. I have heard the queu times can be very long?
No
All story stuff is in roulettes
So it pops eventually
Ques are faster with a tank or healer in the group
anyone knows if i can get the options menu on a party member when clicking on ps4 next to party, not next to player?
i saw it on a friend

to the ppl which didn't answer before, maybe someone knows....
really frustrating
you can't afaik
on controller?
ye
you sure they didn't use a mouse to right click
yes
Like selected a player not in the party and opened a context menu? (I dont understand the question)
I think they mean right clicking a party member on the list vs right clicking their character
As if you right clicked someone on thr party list
But on controller
But controller targets people when you dpad to then
because on controller when you try to do it it acts like you right clicked their character
So it appears next to the character
@left moth i mean what vinyl says
i dont want it next to the moving player :+
:(
That sounds odd then (to context menu instead of jist hilighting a player target)
try using the touchpad mouse
@left moth is there no hud display for that?
or setting
for that particular window
no
If there is im coming up blank since i play on ps3 controller and never had that happen unless im trying to do something in combat amd r2 isnt fully pressed
I'm thinking about buying the game after my free trial but I don't know which one of these is the one to buy. Do I buy the starter edition with a sub or the other one with a sub?
complete edition comes with dlcs
@left moth so where does ur window appear
Complete edition gives you everything
Starter edition requires Shadowbringers ontop of it to get everything
They both include 30days play time. Complete includes shadowbringers
Complete edition is the same as buying starter + Shadowbringers seperately
alright thank you
also remember that there is no time limit to the free trial
Usually where ever i parked the mouse last. On ps4 with no seperate mouse i guess that would be dead middle of the screen or where touchpad mouse was last used.
@left moth it appears for me always on top of the character
no matter where he is walking
could be top right, buttom left
Hmm
urgh
That sounds about right for initial menu placement but not the following a player part
it's the same as right clicking on the character
Anybody want to do Heaven on High?
i mean the window u have when u right click on his hp bar in the middle
Yeah tje context menu to examine another players equipment or send a tell
help the colorblind. Is this room blue or purple?
uh...neither?
The room itself is neither
Looks more orange and grey to me
But there is blue light casting shadow onto the area your character is facing
Like dark blue
i guess i'd classify the room as blue then (trying to classify the aura of the potd rooms)
Someone could describe it as blue if they're using gshade or something to up the saturation
The room itself is more like a dirty/sand brown
Because of what makes up its construction
hi all, i'm lvl 53 SCH but don't have indom yet, and i can't find the quest giver. she's not in the upper noscea ruins, or maruders guild. any ideas?
would call it blue global lighting (walls), sandstone tan textures, and red spot illumination
Are you in heavensward msq @winged fossil
Then that would be why
If not then you need to be in hw
At the end of yourlv50 job quest there was a system message about it
MUST. FINISH. MSQs.
※ You must have completed the main scenario quest “Before the Dawn.” ```
is the system message that appears at the lvl 50 job quest
and before the dawn is final post-ARR?
yes, it is
thank you.
do any of the blue quests i've picked up in post-ARR vansh if i get to HW? like random optional dungeons etc?
no
No content is missable
as a rule quests do not disappear from your log unless they are changed in a patch while you have them active, in which case the patch notes will direct you to abandon and reacquire the quest in question
Outside of seasonal stuff
ok great thanks
outside of seasonal stuff yeah, those will vanish if you don't complete them while the event is up
well right, it will just sit there unable to be finished
whats the difference between arr beast tribes to normal ones?
How do you get back to gangos?
Doman enclave and use the aetheryte (if you attuned to everything)
I didnt
Then go attune to everything in the enclave then you can
Or just use the airship by the docks
@modest igloo ranks
Wheres the airship?
In hingashi?
the enclave
In the enclave
Wheres the enclave
teleport to it
The doman enclave
Yea cant find to tele
Its in the kugane region teleport list
At the bottom
Unless you didn't attune and forgot rule 1
I can tele to kugane
its under yanxia's teleport list
Its at the bottom of the Hingashi
because its in yanxia
Tab
There's a boat to the enclave in southwest Yanxia if you didn't attune to its aetherite
Ok ty
Does getting revelation tomestones from WT count towards your weekly cap?
Yes
did they say if Ishgard Restoration is gonna be updated for Endwalker so you can level from 80 to 90 there?
They didn't say much how it will go in Endwalker
I think they'll be ending ishgard restoration soon, considering how they teased ishgard apartments in the last letter from the producer
Its already ended
There's another update with these fêtes and celebrations for the restoration
Well yeah, but you can still make and turn in collectibles there, right?
yeah that's not going away
don't think they will let us use firmament/restoration for 80+ will probably nerf the exp for collectibles when you are 80 like for the beast tribes when you are over their level range
this sucks
i really hated leveling DoH before Ishgard Restoration
my guess is that there will be new systems in place at some point in Endwalker
Like island sanctuary maybr
do I use Augmented Shire all the way until I get Augmented Scaevan?
just starting SB
Not past around level 65ish
you should start replacing it with dungeon drops somewhere around level 65
around level 65 dungeon gear will be better
oh cool thx
would you classify these rooms as 2 different colors?
being blue/purple colorblind is such a pain in the ass
same color
that looks the same to me tbh
tyty
do you see them very differently?
dunno if your color blindness fits the choices
it's odd to change it when you dont have it lol
hi guys! i don't come here very often so sry if this is in the wrong place, but i can't for the life of me find where i start the second part of the valentine's event quest??
ye i'm there right now and there's no icon above her head 😔
did you finish the first part

yes. these are the quests i've completed. is this all of them?
yes
can i use them to make my life easier for stuff in anima?
no
do i need to be 60 by HW, or could I still be 50? wondering if it' worth using my post-ARR exp on RDM or SAM (not that I have clue to play them yet...)? or i suppose that's a bit pointless too.
50 to start HW.
50 is fine
You don't really get a ton of xp in post-expansion content anyways.
Maybe three levels with the Road to 70.
I got the base resistance weapon after doing hail to the queen etc but dint see anywhere to continue upgrading it
did you unlock bozja
Can you swap the look of your summoner pets before 80?
yes
suddenly i have BLU and SAM and RDM, and all the beginner classes, as well as MSQ and all the blue exclamation quests and I feel v overwhelmed lol
How do you do that again?
Im not sure
Blessed, thanks
@rigid wolf can you enter bozja from sjeros in gangos
What's faster to get haunting memories, doing the FATES in Fringes or Void Ark raid?
Marsal doesnt have a quest
Egi Glamour isn't too useful is it? there's only the nice looking ones or carbuncle?
can you enter bozja
have you finished 5.1 yet?
Egiglam lets you make any of your egis look like any carbuncle.
It's nice for people who don't like the egi skins.
Ah no. Close tho
do 5.1
why is MCH recommended for PotD solo?
Got ya
ah yeah makes sense. I actually don't like the carbuncle skins lol
system > user macros
Watch a vid id say
You need 5.1 story completed to unlock bojza
what macro are you trying to make
The macro where you can make the DRK Relic Weapon glow on your back:
dunno then
oh ok
Every time I try to glam my summon it just says "unable to execute command at this time"
did you unlock egi glamours
Oh, I didn't realize you had to unlock it, my b
its a quest back in the arcanist guild
How do we get multiple resistance relic weapons?
So basically free il485 weapon for alt classes?
No
1k poetics
Only the first is free
