it'll just do the difference, as vinyl said
So I can just go through with standard 30 days?
if you already paid for this month for like 13$ for example, you will get charged 2$
Got it, thanks!
@tender estuary The only security related thing in Task Manager startup is Windows Security notification icon. Should I disable it?
Hey, guys, because I can't find old convo and I am lost, someone in eureka is having the same issue I did like 2 weeks or so ago. They reached Pyros, unlocked 50 logos, artisan won't talk to them to open the shop. I told them they need to go back and finish the light gather for weapon and someone else is hellbent telling me I am wrong and every site and player says you don';t need the weapon. So, which one is right?
They need a full pagos relic weapon
question about free login campain. Say my account ran out just days before it being 30 days of inactivity can i get the free 90 hours whenever it becomes 30 days of being inactive or am i locked out completely?
nah, windows defender is fine
worry about the network driver for now
Hello. Is there someone who can create party for me and my friend on Louisoix? We both have trial.
PS4
start with that, if it still doesnt fix it then move on to disabling all optional startup services
you are looking away? or rotating your character too early?
@near wedge you should be able to do the login campaign when it hits 30 days as long as the campaign is still going
Ask in Limsa or novice network
Yeah you're rotating and looking away from the target
Which is cancelling ir
you rotated your character sideways
Then you turn
but you are facing out
Away
Here on discord or ingame? We are kinda lost in all these settings ingame etc.
You turn to face but then you rurn away
in game @bronze slate
In game
just use /say chat
if you are rotating the camera with ctrl-right click, you will move the character facing the camera direction
probably cause you are adjusting your camera with right click
to turn your character
when you use right click to turn the camera, the character faces with the camera
on standard controls at least
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
hold left click if you dont want to turn your character
ah yeah
thatll do it
or, you can face the camera towards the boss, and you will still be able to cast
ah, but if you rotate it will also interrupt
just hold left click instead
I just strafe out
left click with movement might seem a bit janky
since your movement is relative to character probably

imagine dueling

Let's move discussion somewhere else please
@tender estuary downloaded the lan driver for my motherboard with the help/advice of the Microcenter discord ppl. Extracted the files and allowed it to make changes but nothing else was prompted. Gonna assume(hope/pray) that did its thing. Gonna try another run and hope that fixed the issue lmao
sounds good, just ping me if you get more issues or have anymore questions π
Will do. Thanks a bunch.
not a problem glad to help π
why does it feel like everyone is doing triple my damage, by the time I do 1 attack I see way more attacks from other people with around the same damage as me
there are global cool-down moves, and off-global-cooldown moves
yeah I know that
you may just only be using your global cooldown moves
even tanks hit like 4 times with 1 attack and each of those attacks deal the same damage as me
perhaps you are undergeared
what is your character level and what is your average item level?
item level is the number next to the star icon?
yes
lvl 30 and 15 then
what is your msq level?
you are a bit undergeared but not by too much
yes
idk im just using whatever it gives me
yea that's fine
likely you are still wearing your starter jewelry set
but that doesn't make much of a difference where you are at
are you using your buffs?
yes
and you are chaining your combos?
yes
At 30 might want to pick up some filler from a vendor but wouldnt worry too much about it until around 40 when stats begin climbing + having more skills to do complete combos with
If you have teammates' particle effects turned off or minimized is the audio for them also slightly muted as well?
Where do I get my achievement bird again?
(turning down the fireworks show helps a lot with positionals if playing melee)
this crafting system... Can I syntizise more than one item at a time?
Not unless the recipe itself makes more than one
Jonathas in Gridania
All birds reward is wandering yoship at rising stones
ty!
ooh good
wait, which then
nvm
paissa is correct
I thought you were talking about mount traded using achievement certificate

the job advance quest is unlocked at 30 right
And i read it as all hw ex birds achievo
All Wandering Yoship has for me is a cutscene about a dumb song he made
To clarify, I want the hw ex achievement birb
I have all 7
If its a mount from a singular achievement, not quest reward, then yes jonathas in gridania at the waterfall/ npc
Hmm
Oh duh
Idylshire
oh, finally got the name of the mount and googled it. It's apparently picked up in Idyll
Hey, got a question for you all. I'm still in ARR finishing up unlocking Duty Finder Dungeons and Raids and Ive yet to find the Mog King or anything related to Rameuh or however you spell the Lightening Primal
they're both part of the main scenario quest
what is your current msq level?
You do that for post arr
So, when I'm in a city. I have all these different quests to get started with classes and jobs. Should I go ahead and start all of the job quests or is there some reason I shouldn't?
no reason to start or not to start
Do you want those classes?
it's entirely up to you
the job quests just unlocks the job so you can play a different job from your main one
Is loot automatic? I can't find a loot hotkey and I just realized I don't think I've been picking anything up off bodies.
Yes
You only roll on items in chests
If there's anything rollable in there
Like gear or minions etc
Random mats go out randomly
if they're not rolled for, its randomly given
Unless its a special mat
like from a boss drop?
If its like a primal Mat you roll on that
Arr primal materials are both iirc
Zurvan ex mat drop gotta roll it right
I mean, there's no reason I wouldn't want to start them at least, right? Aren't they kind of like professions in WoW or skills in Runescape?
They're different combat jobs or crafters and gatherers
They're completely separate from your current job
You actually swap to that job to do things with it
if you want to play the job, then yes, but keep in mind that each job takes significant time investment
Oh, I see. So most people only dedicate time to one such as Fishing or Culinarian or Blacksmithing?
how much played is decent to reach lvl 80?
People ideally level all crafters and gatherers
As they help each other with getting mats
Ahh ok, I see
And they share gear
^
So leveling them all up at once is easier on armoury space
Most people level all crafters at once, it's easier than you'd think
cuts down on the amount of space in your armory chest
however much time it takes you to get through the MSQ
Depends on whether or not you're skipping cutscenes
assuming you don't get distracted by other games
times played π
Does a class boost exist?
wdym
u have to do story to progress the game π
It doesn't complete the story
a level boost wont complete the msq
Onlu level the job
and a story boost wont level you
u can do a story boost?
so a job boost wont let you catch up to the latest msq to your level?
yes
also if you buy a story boost, you can't do additional quests until your character level matches the main story quest level
no @obsidian tiger
Can you share gear between classes?
roles share gear
Job boosts put you at 70
ah yikes
certain types of gear yes
like "disciple of war gear"
theres gear for roles
What gaming activities would be the best to farm for MGP for Gokd Saucer?
tanks use fending, healers use healing, etc
!faq mgpguide
GATEs
So say I have 1 piece of gear on Alchemist and turn into Goldsmith and equip the same item, when I turn back into Alchemist will that gear still be equipped?
if you saved it to the gear set yes
Yeah saved
yes
Alright good to know thanks
@lone canyon with no time investment like getting TT cards or leveling up your racing chocobo, the mining/botany mini games are the best for pure grinding
Noted
Where can I find these minigames?
Top floor where chocobo racing and lord of verminion is. An NPC standing near a wall by the people you buy MGP stuff from takes you there
also dont forget about your daily cactpot
you get three chances to get 10,000 mgp
and you can get it more than once daily
can I prevent the game from destroying my hotbars when I switch job rocks or whatever or classes
also your weekly challenge log helps alot with MGP
Toggle sharing
you can set certain hotbars as shared between classes
Character config > hotbars > sharing
it's in your hotbar settings
I see, thanks
Which will copy hotbar 1 for marauder to hotbar 1 for warrior
/crosshotbar if you're using the controller hotbar
Does anyone know when they added the 150% echo to eureka? I'm kinda curious as it's probably what they'll do to bozja
now that the drop rates have been buffed, is it better to do stb raids or FATEs for the memories?
They feel pretty comparable now.
Rng is gonna be rng in the end
5.1 @warm snow
Danke
You can always que and do fates at the same time
yeah i think ill do that, ty
It was admittedly a little hard to do that at launch funny enough
what is the best way to level at low levels for alt jobs?
!faq altlvlguide
tyty
how do you break the shields in lord of verminion?
my guys just stand there and don't hit it
is it possible to tell if an ability is gcd or off ogcd
without using it of course
Yes
It says ability in its description
For off global
And weaponskill/spell
For gcds
!action Heavy Swing
yeah I see it, thanks
Eh kupo doesn't say it but you see
The recast timer also usually gives it away as well
For most things
Unless its one od those unique skills that are on the gcd but have a cooldown
Unrelated to FFXIV but, can you guys read me?
Probably 
where can i get skybuilders' hemp?
You dont
In the diadem
@leaden ginkgo Yes
Which minions are you using? Not all are effective at destroying shields.
Like this minion is better at breaking gates (first icon) than shields

guys

how do i show up my skill when i use it like tells me in the screen with the images n stuff
sorry
what were the requirements for being a sprout?
you lose the status after a while so there is requirements
168h and entered Shadowbringers loses sprout
what is your class?
Maurader
Weapons are higher priority
you should get the +2strength
gotcha ty
Weapon damage is the biggest and most important stat
+1 weapon damage is already automatically the best
Majority of the time
Anyway
Few edge optimization
i dont know where to ask this, but anyone have large levin orbs to sell?
look up marketboard or put up a party finder with that specific request
thank you
how can i meld materia on my lvl 80 brd gear? i cant find where to do it
Can a hotbar be set up to be shared between doh jobs only?
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
cant increase cap
I second this
click save/delete outfit button at the bottom of the try on window
ok ty much
recently returned to ffxiv,how similar to the ex counterparts are the unreal versions?
unreal is ex
Unreal is exactly the same as their ARR version
Just scaled to 80
They are extremes
Character config > hotbars> display hotbar number
how do people do the green and red arrows in chat and what are they supposed to mean?
can anyone tell me if physick from sch is still used in savage edens or not really?
no
if you have to physick something has gone seriously wrong
I finished the part of the relic weapon quest whre i have to do 36 alliance raids, but they didnt give me the next quest where i have to do deliubrum reginae 15 times
is there another requirement?
did you do DR normal for the bozja quest
okay thanks! just wondering to move it out my bar for something else like feys blessing
i did
The node should have the quest
should still be on your hotbar just in case but you dont wanna use it
i have completed it before
the node doesnt have anything
should i do delubrum again?
Talk to Zlatan
See if he has it
Also make sure its not already accepted on another job
i saw a notification that he has a new weapon upgrade quest but i didnt see anything new
do you know what its called?
once done with annoying node, you will get a new repeatable relic quest, A New Path of Resistance
So to do "A time to Every Purpose" I need to do the Crystal Tower
but to do the Crystal Tower, I need to do the coils?
oh thank god, the stuff I was reading was confusing
The coils are completely optional (and rarely run these days)
how do you check your actual eureka level if you're synced down?
should show in the player list

Interestingly enough, I can't find the "Outlandish Man" to start the crystal towers lol
in mor dhona near the aetheryte
As a healer player with no prior experience to any melee job, is there any tip(s) before I go to unlock and learn samurai?
do your positionals
Whats the benefit of a lvl 20 vs lvl 10 chocobo companion
more skills
More skills
Samurai doesn't start with them iirc, only get them at 52, but yeah positionals matter
Ah yes. Those. I keep hearing about them. What does it mean?
There's bonuses for hitting at a specific part of the target
hey, I don't quite understand how do levequests work
Usually damage and/or resources
Oh, interesting
So if I just wanna have a bird DPS then I don't need lvl 20, ok
!faq positional
Start the leve from your journal
Also any way to accelerate chocobo lvling up?
!action Trick Attack
Delivers an attack with a potency of 350.
500 when executed from a target's rear.
Additional Effect: Increases target's damage taken by 5%
Duration: 15s
Can only be executed while under the effect of Hidden.
some skills will say "flank bonus" and "rear bonus"
500 when executed from Target rear
I see. Thank you
Not really
Theyβre basically repeatable mini quests that you activate from the journal
are they different based on zone? I want to do levequests to kill some mobs and get extra exp but one of my characters is level 47 and the other one is 11 and I only get level 20 levequests
so they don't suit any of both
Yes, combat leve are based on zone
not characters, classes sorry
Figured it out, the quest was missing because I already finished it, I'm on the next quest, Sanding it Down
Take note that they are not very good for combat classes experience
To get experience for combat jobs
!faq altlvlguide
I see, can I follow that guide considering that I am F2P and my highest job is 47?
Just read the sections that's relevant to you
It is marked as Stormblood because it was written then
okay thanks
help, new player and I need help deciding whether I should go summoner or black mage for first experience through game
whichever looks cooler
Hey, running through the free trial (loving every second) Iβm up to tam-Tara but canβt match with anyone! Any advice. Sorry if this is in the wrong spot Iβm new to the discord
are you a dps
So switch my class?
Since so many people run DPS
yes
is there a command for a level 60 blm guide?
!faq blmleveling
danke
has anyone ever encountered this issue and found a fix for this?
I tried lowering resolutions and uninstalling and reinstalling the game
and also resetting the laptop as well
did you switch to dx9
ask in #technology-discussion
will do
what are hunts?
Hunts are special mobs that are killed for seals/nuts. B ranks require unlock for credit. A and S ranks will give credit anyways but may be more limited in using the rewards
they have rewards
yes, seasonal events have achievements
Ohhhh

So new players have missed all past event achievements
Yeah, they'd not have the ability to get those past seasonal achievements
thanks, so I need to hit 50 first to unlock
duties are instanced content and quests are quests
Ah i see
Duty usually refers to instanced (dungeon, trial, raid) or some sort of interacting content (solo instance combat, levequest). Quest refers to content that delivers story or instanced things
Thx
Last question
- do i have to lvlup Dragoon to lvl50 before beat ARR ?
Ive read somewhere.
For extra dialoque
the last quest of ARR is lvl 50 so yes
Yes otherwise game wont let you progress to capstone dungeons main scenario requires to be done
Ohhhh so that s it
Is it dumb to buy gear before endgame?
Also kinda helps for job quest equipment before you can get ironworks
i mean buying gear is just the impatient way to get gear
you don't have to be lvl 50 dragoon to get that extra dialogue, you can rewatch the cutscene with it later on at an inn room
what level are you
23
then you have 0 reason to worry about it
don't worry about buying gear at your lvl
msq will provide most of the gear you need
Theres plenty of dungeon drop options until you get to lv 45 and lv50 job quests
Is there a point to buying before I finish the free trial?
entirely up to you
if you want the restrictions lifted
@bronze crater what s your lvl now?
23
Im quite very new too
lifting restrictions is pretty much the main reason to buy before you are "done" with the trial
if they aren't bothering you, then may as well keep on with trial
@bronze crater i also have no clue how impactful for being free trial player
But i guess we keep playing until we start to have hard time
It was a pain in the ass to find people for the tam-Tara duengeon
Not being able to use party finder is a drag
Yeah
people dont use PF for msq content
im not a mentor in game 
Should i wait for End walker out before buying Compltetd edition?
endwalker is at least 6 months away
Someone point me to the noob section of the discord lol
theres no noob section
@remote lintel i know but im fully adult i dont think i can catch up in 6 months
Yeah the msq definitely seems to be going fast @leaden ginkgo
is the "additional actions" thing only for DoH and DoL? when is it useful? putting prospect on botanist doesn't seem great
@bronze crater where is the noob section?
Or is it here?
there is none
Lol
Itβs a joke
.... I think
So is it true game really starts picking up around lvl 30?
subjective
most people agree it picks up around the end of post ARR
but I liked the game from the beginning so π€·
As long as you don't go in with the mindset commonly instilled of "arr ist going to suck, let's speedrun it" you'll have a lot of fun
^
Can I control how many I can buy or do I have to buy all of them if they come in a set?
all
help im blanking, where is the setting to determine the keybind for activating another hot bar
the βslowβ part has a lot of world buildings; some are referred to even much later so dont speed through it
system > keybind?
Sorry to ask again if it's a stupid question. But I'd like to know how the shared abilities work. I've seen them on the DoL jobs. Are they also the same for war and magic jobs? What are their uses?
Furthermore, I want to level some new classes, but when doing my first one I did everything in all zones and was hideously over leveled for the msq. But now I have no sidequests to help level new jobs. How should I proceed? New Game +? Or grind stuff like palace of the dead? I'd like to avoid that approach if possible
you best bet is daily duty roulette and doing the highest lvl dungeon you can for that class, is personally what i have seen
for below 15 hunt log, fates, challenge log
for 15+ roulette, beast tribes at 40+, spam highest level dungeon that isnt a level cap dungeon
Alright I will do that then. Thank you very much
So itβs a bad idea to stick with one class through arr?
no
Well, it is possible to do too much and then leave the msq behind so that the encounters become trivial. But it's ok. You can still enjoy the story and developments, etc
Are the tradecraft guilds separate? For example can I do longer and crafting?
Lancer*
Got a question, there is no way to go back to Carbun after getting Egi?
@bronze crater yes they are separate classes
So its' like pokemon evolved?
unlock egi glamours
Oh
then u have to do a text command for each carbuncle
oh wow ok thanks
Oh cool I didnβt know that @remote lintel which tradecraft guild do you recommend doing?
i love my little carbuncles
if youre going to level crafters level all of them together
theyre an all or nothing package
so i paid the subscription with my credit card, is there any way to check if it has become monthly subscription or one time only?
it should say recurring on mog station
So if I join the carpenters guild itβs all of them together?
no
subscription entry recurring?
im saying get all of the crafters
@dapper oyster if you paid with your credit card its automatically recurring iirc
@bronze crater you level each craft separate and have to unlock them separately at their respective guilds. it is just a good idea to level them all up equally, so you don't have one skill at like 65 and the other at 1
So I want to get to IL 520, Currently 517, https://i.imgur.com/skjDtDV.jpg belt is augmented, nothing else is. Haven't done 9S and 10S reclears yet (haven't been able to beat 11S yet), in the worst possible scenario where I don't get anything from 9S or 10S, what pieces of gear should I get that will allow me to reach 520?
cryptlurker?
How do I survive as a RDM when just going through the story?
wym how
Heal yourself
Get better gear
the same way everyone else does
I'm dying to at-level enemies 1v1
Your gear is shit
better gear
then youre doing something wrong or undergeared
Yeah that's probably true
you should have ironworks
....I'm guessing ilvl41 is very subpar for lvl50?
EXTREMELY
oh wow thats v low level lol
for reference
check the marketboard for items
ironworks is i130
Oh
Sounds like you didn't even equip the starting rdm gear
Like at all
Or anything really
I just hit the recommended gear button when I had my RDM class items equipped
Should I not do that
excluding the weapon bc that is not accounted in the average
You have a coffer od gear
Oh
In your inventory
did you use the coffer
I forgot about that
Probably should.use that
There are 8 days remaining on this service account.
By canceling this subscription, you will be unable to play when the remaining days have expired.
Do you wish to proceed?
this should be ok to proceed right?
I'm sorry
And leveling the craft guilds is same as job guild just missions or do you level through play
Its i115 base gear
@dapper oyster yes
Still need accessories however
if you dont care for those remaining days yea
Alright, ilvl 72 seems a bit better
i know hotbars are hugely on personal preference but is there a website or something where i can see suggested hotbar setups by class?
so its not the end of the world
@bronze crater below lvl 20 you can just spam crafts, then you can use leves (fastest and most expensive), ishgard restoration unlocked at lvl 60, gc turn ins, etc
#protips-and-ui or the subreddit, can't really think much more than that
there is no dedicated website for UI as far as i know
So Iβm at lvl 23 did that ship sail for me to level them fast?
no
thanks goat <3
Ok so Iβll have to join those guilds next time I log in. And youβre saying I can be in all those at once right?
yes
Cool
they are classes
you can be all the classes without a need for alternate characters
One character can do every class
and yea those guilds are just classes
But not at once
not to be confused with Free Companies = Player Guilds
no you can be every class at once
joining a guild is just unlocking a class
thats it
you equip 1 class at a time and can have every class
people have max level on every class
no you cant except scholar and summoner
no
no you need to swap classes to level them
Scholar and Summoner the one exception for some reason >.>
like i know why
but its still weird
Now Iβm confused. I can level the trade jobs together
no
No.
Oh boy
Each trade is separate
once you hit max level or at least beat HW leveling the DoH becomes much more easier
are you on free trial?
Yeah
honestly i would wait to do DoH after Heavensward, the first expansion
because its costly on your gil
and you unlock faster methods
yea
Ok cool
lvl 30-80
not at all really
crafting is entirely optional
Lol
its more like
Is it worth it?
if you want money yes
a hobby to do once ur bored a little
This
getting gil with DoH/DoL is more work than you think
crafters will make more money than non crafters
at least a vast majority of the time
So not necessary by any means
no its not
nope
Like Iβm not going to miss out on the best gear
no
i did crafting for firmament and boredom
the best gear comes from raids and tomestones
Ok Iβm out on those then lol
not crafting
but you can buy the best crafted gear off the market board
The easiest way to make money for crafting is find an undiscovered or under-supplied niche on the market board
Whether itβs glamour gear, furniture, or leveling gear
ye ^
Raids and tomestones come much later Iβm assuming
I only just did my second dungeon
If I do a "yell" in Upper Limsa Lominsa, would people in Lower Lominsa hear me?
if youre talking about endgame yes
but MSQ will supply you with enough gil, exp, and gear as you need
No
you really do not have to worry about anything else
the best gear is endgame gear
so shout is better?
Shout is zone wise
And you get endgame gear through msq?
lower decks are a separate zone
Yell is larger say
Upper and Lower are two separate
Right right
can i shout from the limsa inn?
no
@remote lintel when do I start doing raids and tomestones
lvl 80
when you beat shadowbringers
50
for endgame
ok so
Ok so Iβm a ways away
theres 3 different tomestone and 2 of them are for lvl 80s
each expansion has their own set of raids, 50, 60, 70, 80
poetics tomestone are what youre going to use to buy old endgame gear
lvl 80 is current content, the "endgame"
man this guy said they only just beat their second dungeon right?
isn't this too much info for them?
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
But I believe arr ends at lvl 50 if Iβm not mistaken. Are their raids for arr with its own appropriate end game gear?
theyre the one asking
true
Yes
Lol
the game has patterns
Sorry very curious
each expansion has 12 raids and 3 alliance raids
how do i advertise a party finder in chat?
there are Raids, you do not need to grind the gear here besides glamour
I just started playing but Iβm kinda obsessed
what is the common craft class that people use to farm sky script at lv80?
each expansion had tome gear that was the endgame gear
which you now buy with poetics
Should be a right click option when selecting that PF listing
msq gives you the bare minimum gear
Idk what poetics is
BTN/MIN give the same amount per material levels so whatever you need more of or whatever is more profitable
So basically just shut up can keep playing
Got it!
basically
Hahahaha
For fishing Iβve never done it in the diadem so I canβt say
thats how i played, i didnt really ask anyone for help. i just learnt it
As for the crafting classes whatever has the cheapest materials for that tierβs craft
Thatβs why youβre the goat....man
the pattern looks like:
beat expansion
buy poetics gear, which lasts until 5 lvls into the next expansion, then replace with msq gear
do the 12 8-man raids and 3 24-man raids
repeat
except the ARR 8-man raids
dont do those unless you want some 1.0 story
sadly most new people i know just skip the expansion raids
makes me upset
but they are totally worth it
I read that fishing is a good way to generate skyscript compared to gather+craft for script? π€
Fishing is the slowest I believe, but it's nice for just sitting and watching netflix or whatever

No you're fine.
just take your time with the game and ask if you have any questions about stuff you're wondering about
Thank you really appreciate you all helping out
So what are synced quests in the shadowbringer?
so basically
they sync the enemies and rewards to any level 71-80
yea like beast tribes
they did it bc no reason to limit the level i guess
Or to make them slightly more relevant
@rocky zenith one last question the raids these all present themselves through the main quest or itβs just something that becomes available after
would I be able to shout from my estate in the Mist, and have it reach Limsa?
after you beat the expansion
Blue quests after completing MSQ
theyre 
good question, as they said they are blue quests
which means optional quests that unlock content
always a good choice to do them
bc more content = happy player
as i like to say
But not In arr
no ARR has them
the alliance raid is required in ARR
yea two types of Raids btw
No
i said not to do the bahamut raids because theyre savage level and are only really good for 1.0 story
Shout does not go across zones
lmao what are these questions about shouts
i find it funny
so iirc
a shout
only reaches anyone on the map of the location you are in
a yell only reaches to people in the same sub-section as you
This game is awesome nervous Iβm not going to play anything else
Yell/say work more like a radius around you then a βpeople in this sectionβ at least from early testing in 2.0
Is that was happens you just play this game for years and years
not really no
You eventually run out of stuff to do
they design the game to be played only for a while and then having breaks
i think
but there is a ton of content
i mean i pretty much exclusively play ff14 now
Is matoyas relict 50 tomestones of rev every time?
i only do dailies and log off
maybe im reading it wrong, but on AST, does colective unconcious do the same thing on both diurnal and nocturnal ?
Yes, as stated on duty finder
No, one buff is extended depending on stance
got it
that's pretty much what I only have time for. But I don't even see the point of it now
Regen if diurnal, mitigation if Nocturnal
I'm not sure what other content I could do since I only have around 1-2 hours to play daily
thats sick
Can you rename your character?
yes for a fee
With real money
does fantasia not give you a rename?
No
no.
Different service
oh ok
for retainers
you have to close PF
does I need to complete ShB for skysteel tool?
Spamming matoyas or hunt trains
can i just toss out all this antiquated level 70 class gear
that i got from leveling classes
i've held onto them for the longest time, thinking i might want them
are they easy to reclaim if I dump em
You can just que for expert really and take whatever it gets
anything you can buy back from the calamity salvager is generally super cheap
ugh so i somehow disabled a setting. i dont like when my camera moves when i press A or D. i simply want to strafe without the camera turning, anyone know this setting?
standard control scheme
much appreciated
the difference is the substats
Substat differences
yes, the substat distro is different
every class's BiS is some combination of tome + savage gear
whichever of the two gives them better substats
you can't get augmented without savage anyway
currently you are stuck at 520
Substat differences are sub 1%
because the mats to upgrade 520 to 530 are savage only
every time I use LB the marker starts off way in the back, and I have to drag it to themiddle, is there a way to center it every time?
Non savage raiders get upgrades with 5.5
you'll be able to buy the augment mats with 24man tokens in 5.5
With nier
when patch 5.5 comes out, you will be able to get the mats without savage
Only armour and accessories at the start
do you want to do savage? if no, then theres no point to getting 530
However
But my BiS levelling gear


just wait like 2 months or so and then you can get 530
without savage
@ivory iris on controller?
what about the free level 60 gear you get for picking up dancer/gunbreaker?
can i toss that too
yes
and the level 1 blue mage set too?
yes
How do Import a Tracker via instance ID?
Copy to clipboard iirc
Or export tracker
At the top
Oh import
You just replace the last few letters with the ID
In the link
Be like ffxiv-eureka/IDHERE
or whatever
Or use this page and copy the id here https://ffxiv-eureka.com/
FFXIV Eureka NM pop time tracker
@remote lintel yes playstation
it tells you the buttons to reset the target ring at the top of your screen
Does the game support voice chat
Got it. Itβs probably more fun running a dungeon or raid when you can talk to tour party it was pretty hectic just everyone running around
party chat?
thank you!

Yo guys any chance of new race for the new expansion or is it out of the question ?
Nope
0
New races is a FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK ton of work
And we just got 2...with limited hats
Soooo
Yeah
the devs said that they werent going to add any more races
And that
if anything theres a small chance we get female hroths/male viera
please SE give me the bunny men
no it has its own website
!faq ACT
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
theres no harm in downloading it from the website
thousands of people use it
Do you have to worry about mettle after rank 15?
Nope
I mean, will they add more levels?
Probably
So I'd have to refarm all levels?
When they add the new zone
New zone?
But mettle is piss easy to farm
They confirmed a new zone in 5.55
Zatton or whatever
Oh really? When was that announced
So it'll be another bozjan area or?
Yes
Was it during the expac announce?
Live letter after that
Mettle is piss easy to farm anyway
Especially if skirmishes in the new zone givr more anyway
And with how broken actions we have
Hm so rank 15 will likely be needed for final relic
What's the best opener and rotation for SAM at lvl 50 against 1 enemy (boss)? Balance mostly has lvl 80 info.
Just remove skills you dont have
And its basically the same
Shifu combo > get jinpu > put up higabana > gekko and go into meikyo
Then start cycling combos
Rinse repeat
After gekko I did Yukikaze combo before Meikyo (because its only 2 button combo), to use meikyo only for 3 button combo
what you said has better dps?
Yes
It gets to midare a gcd faster
Thus hitting under any raid buffs
With the third meikyo stack you use Gekko
To cut out another 2 gcds towards your next midare
is it possible to exchange achievement certificates for things I already own?
I don't wanna accidentally buy duplicates
lol
thanks
iirc enquire within is like the only thing you can buy multiples of
and technically the cascadier uniforms
because I was doing yukikaze in combo, I used meikyo for Kasha, then Midare, then 2 meikyo stacks for Kasha and Gekko
Please correct me if I'm wrong: even if what u say makes the first midare come 1 gcd earlier, what I say makes the 2nd midare come earlier 1 gcd
The second midare isn't under buffs
But first is
So its more important to get out faster
second midare is under buffs just tested it with a dummy
It also builds habits for later when you get Tsumbae which takes another gcd

Hi my son in law just bought the game on ps4 and it's downloading right now. How can we do the recruit a friend thing exactly? I'm confused on how this works
tl;dr go to mogstation, find the RAF campaign banner, you give your Son In Law your RAF code on the RAF website, they go to Mogstation/the RAF website to redeem the code
is there any way for me to just trasnfer eveything to my retainer?
instead of movin everything 1 by 1
Hey guys, i have a question about the Recruit a friend. I used to play months ago and invited 3 friends and then now im getting back into FFXIV and want to recruit more friends but the option isnt there. I don't currently have an active subscription, is that why?
cuz ctrl + leftclick dont work
probably
right click > send to reatiner
i cant open all on retainer π¦
@hushed python no
the free trial lets you play to 60
you still need to buy the base game and the dlc if you want to play everything
and once you buy the game, you can't go back to trial

So did they increase the trial from 30 days to 60 days?
30 days that comes with the base game is not a trial ,its a free 30 days
the trial (before you buy any of the game/expansions) is not time limited
The 30 day is a gifted sub days
