When it comes to savages everybody ahs to be on top of their dps
#questions-and-help
broken ledge
atomic forge
I do need to join a Free Company to get a mount, correct?
proven magnet
tru..ty m8
remote lintel
no
twilit arch
no, you need to join a grand company
spark cradle
also later on healers get off cooldown/non MP heals
twilit arch
which you will do during the main scenario quest
proven magnet
so how would a raid wipe then or fail
remote lintel
by failing mechanics
remote lintel
or not meeting the dps check
proven magnet
not by not healing enough tho?
spark cradle
failing mechanics or going to enrage
atomic forge
I'm pretty sure I joined a Grand Company already. I don't remember seeing a mount quest.
spark cradle
yes healers do still need to heal, but you are juggling what you are doing
broken ledge
Yeah unless the healers are asleep or dead you probably won't die due to lack of healing
modest igloo
E11S was a pretty hard heal check this teir
twilit arch
the quest is at your grand company headquarters, its called "my little chocobo"
rugged flicker
How common is it for a medium house to drop below 15 million gil?
spark cradle
the bosses do raid wide aoe's at times that hit everyone
but you still need to be doing damage when healing isn't needed
remote lintel
its not that healers dont heal enough, its usually because other people keep standing in aoes or failing mechanics and so they take too much damage and die
broken ledge
Yeah so long as people aren't eating mechanics there typically isn't a ton of time when heals are needed
Tank busters, aoe bursts
remote lintel
if everyone is doing fine then healing is pretty easy
proven magnet
are tank bursters stuff that kil me easy as a tank?
broken ledge
They hurt a lot
spark cradle
its high damage attacks which you are meant to mitigate
remote lintel
tank busters are (usually) single target attacks aimed at the main tank
spark cradle
in dungeons and standard trials its usually only like up to half your HP
broken ledge
Yeah it's not a big deal most of the time
spark cradle
however in savages they are more than your entire HP
remote lintel
theyre a huge hit on the main tank
proven magnet
holy
remote lintel
usually take like 50-75% of your health in savage
spark cradle
i think O10S for example tanks had around 75k HP and the tank buster in that can do 110k
proven magnet
u said main tank u need two tanks then, an off tank too?
broken ledge
And in that case you just pop your mitigation, get some heals, and tank swap if necessary
spark cradle
main and off tank concept applies less in savages
warped nest
Just to be clear, main and off are designated by who is doing what at the moment
proven magnet
but the off tank is still as tanky as the main tank?
spark cradle
you're expected to be utilising both tanks mitigations
spark cradle
you use the same gear...
warped nest
It is not designated by which tank job you picked
spark cradle
tanks are expected to be passing aggro in savages by maxing out their mitigations
warm snow
but the off tank is still as tanky as the main tank?
He just not holding aggro otherwise the boss would start spinning between the two and you piss off the melee dps with positionals
spark cradle
sometimes its forced but in all savages its so that healer can dps more
broken ledge
From my limited experience there's typically a move or two that are known as the time to tank swap
spark cradle
but you still want to for healer dps
remote lintel
what
spark cradle
you max out mitigation so overall less damage is taken so less healing needed
remote lintel
you mean stacking defensives?
spark cradle
no i mean having it that you don't sit on one tank only using their mitigations
warped nest
I believe they meant mitigation uptime for skills like rampart
spark cradle
^
remote lintel
ive never heard of people doing that
spark cradle
w0t
proven magnet
can people inspect your profile in this game and tell if you havent done a fight or not will they let u in the raid?
remote lintel
no
warped nest
I don't think it needs to be that optimized though
desert flicker
Hey all, hope you're having a good evening. I'm new to FFXIV but not MMOs. I get "ABC" for raiding 😉 I've finished Eden normals - what'st he best way to start participating in savage raids?
spark cradle
I don't think it needs to be that optimized though
i don't see why you would avoid such an easy thing to do though
remote lintel
@desert flicker extremes are a good entry point
remote lintel
you can do emerald EX
spark cradle
ok but that's expected in savages
i'm not meaning highly timed tank swaps but just doing it in general at some points
remote lintel
then the tanks would have to know the mechanics for both main tank and off tank?
spark cradle
erm yes its not hard
remote lintel
ive never seen people do that
spark cradle
w0t you have to do that in ones with forced tank swaps, why would you suddenly just drop brain to avoid maximising it
warped nest
In a 10 minutes fights, there is a lot of moving parts, while more proactive swap might lead to less healing, it has diminishing return
Why add more steps to a plan
remote lintel
that sounds pretty niche for optimizing
warped nest
When the plan already works as it is right now
remote lintel
and if you cycle your cds you shouldnt really have a problem
spark cradle
how is it niche for optimising when its entire damaging casts for healers
warped nest
Healers are not running short on skills and tools anyway
We recognize that it is optimization
robust magnet
If I have a clan mark bill, and put it on my hotbar, then complete it, the bill will stay on my hotbar.
If I get a new mark bill of the same kind (ie: weekly hunt) will it then let me open that new one via the hotbar?
remote lintel
i mean i dont really use gcd heals in savage anyway
warped nest
We just don't think it is worth it
spark cradle
optimisation helps a lot more in getting first clears when lower gear
remote lintel
i mean if it works for you sure
i never had a problem with dps and not tank swapping
warped nest
If I have a clan mark bill, and put it on my hotbar, then complete it, the bill ...
You are better off figuring this out on your own
plain python
@robust magnet the finished bill is grey out on your hotkey bar. If you accept a new one, it will replace the done one. If you accept a new one while still have an ongoing one, it will overwrite
warped nest
There you go
robust magnet
I see.
Also I would but I don't have any bills 
rugged flicker
How often do medium plots drop below 15 million gil?
robust magnet
Haven't seen a medium plot ever open up, can't answer ya sadly.
plain python
every time a plot timer hits, the price is reduced
rugged flicker
Haven't seen a medium plot ever open up, can't answer ya sadly.
It happens when new housing areas are added, which will happen soonish.
rugged flicker
Assuming no one notice the plot is available for purchase
Well that also depends on the timer.
However, I'm looking to relocate so the timer isn't a factor.
Question is.
rugged flicker
How long am I willing to let the clock run for a lower price?
Website says 20 million.
rugged flicker
Doesn't that depend on what's available tho?
twilit arch
lowest medium can go on devaluation is 7.9mil
No, this is for fresh plots that haven't been purchased at all
rugged flicker
Oh.
plain python
I imagine your plot would be relocated to if you wait
twilit arch
rugged flicker
Well I'm looking to relocate to Lavender beds on Balmung after Ishgard housing is added.
Upgrade from small to medium.
Before upgrading though, do I need to vacate all my furnishings from the premises?
twilit arch
no
so long as the items in your house+storehouse don't exceed 400 inside/40 outside
when you relocate all of the items in the house go into the storeroom
rugged flicker
Ah
Does that include items that can't be replaced once they are taken off like the Behemoth head?
atomic forge
Did Square give any reason why the races in FFXIV are so similar to FFXI?
Technical reasons?
ivory gull
How do you make discord display your character name and world as profile status ?
obsidian patio
Does that include items that can't be replaced once they are taken off like the ...
IIRC all items
remote lintel
the races in ff14 are based off races from other games
obsidian patio
The game basically started as a “sequel” of sorts to FFXI in early development
atomic forge
There are plenty of other races in the FF universe though. They chose the exact same ones.
warped nest
FF games have FF stuff
remote lintel
i mean the hrothgar are based off the ronso from ff10
warped nest
I dunno what else there is to say
rugged flicker
"Here's an item commemorate you felling a tough foe! Oh what's this? You want to move? WELL FUCK YOU THEN, WE'RE TAKING IT BACK! ENJOY THE TIME YOU WASTED FARMING IT!"
It just comes across as incredibly petty to me.
twilit arch
this isnt a vent channel
plain python
Moogle appears everywhere in SE's franchises too, but each presentation is different from each other
atomic forge
LC, ignoring the vague tone of casual condescension you are giving to your answer - there are obviously more races in FF than the ones represented in the online games.
rugged flicker
Granted that's just with the mounted Behemoth head, which is easy enough to buy without breaking the bank, I'm not sure if the same rule applies to some of those items you craft from EX bosses.
atomic forge
That the two online games would have identical ones is more than just "FF is FF"
rugged flicker
Which can sell for millions.
remote lintel
i just gave you an example of a race in ff14 that isnt from ff11
deep gyro
emerald plating is like 50k on my server
remote lintel
and like wynne said its like a spiritual sequel
deep gyro
i wouldn't say the bust costs even one million
rugged flicker
One huge difference:
atomic forge
Yeah, what Wynne said made the most sense.
silver ruin
seiryu/suzaku are prob like 700k
midnight lion
How do you make discord display your character name and world as profile status ...
right-click on your name in the main chat window go to "Change Nickname"
deep gyro
true
rugged flicker
Roegadyn have naughty bits in place of tails 😉
remote lintel
@midnight lion thats not it
rugged flicker
Galka were asexual.
remote lintel
@ivory gull its a different launcher that i cant remember the name of
rugged flicker
And had tails.
silver ruin
emerald plating is crap price cuz everyones running it and theres no crafted weapons from it
deep gyro
couldn't you throw away something else worth less if you are capped and wanna relocate?
warped nest
Not yet
midnight lion
<@!190709586527911936> its a different launcher that i cant remember the name of
ah, nvm... probably quicklauncher?
warped nest
So it is good time to stock up on emerald plating
remote lintel
yeah i think thats it
warped nest
If you are looking at long time investment
midnight lion
yeah i think thats it
yup, it is. Discord Rich Presence is one of the features it has @ivory gull https://github.com/goatcorp/FFXIVQuickLauncher
deep gyro
or is it that some items cant stay with you if you move house?
silver ruin
no i think they all move with you
ivory gull
oh I have that launcher, probably in the setting that I havent look at
silver ruin
wait
rugged flicker
or is it that some items cant stay with you if you move house?
There are certain items that are deleted permanently if you remove them after they are being placed, aside from food items, of course.
silver ruin
some of the mog station consumables might not stay with you once actively placed
deep gyro
so its just the item cap thats the issue? couldn't you throw away some cheaper stuff?
silver ruin
shove some in a retainer
rugged flicker
They often tend to be items that are made using rare materials from raids or hunts.
deep gyro
oh i see
silver ruin
They often tend to be items that are made using rare materials from raids or hun...
?? which items are these
ive heard of literally none of those
deep gyro
wasnt aware of this
silver ruin
that have that issue
rugged flicker
Only ones I can recall offhand are the mounted Behemoth Head.
silver ruin
interesting
deep gyro
good to know
rugged flicker
And that one item that makes that spherical large holographic field... It's a Coil item.
deep gyro
i wont place anything like this in my house then
rugged flicker
I forget what it's called.
vernal urchin
? Our FC has a behemoth head and we can move it around just fine?
rugged flicker
Maybe they patched it.
deep gyro
to a diff house?
twilit arch
relocating puts all of the items into the storehouse
rugged flicker
I just recall that back when I moved from an apartment to a house, I lost my behemoth head.
As well as that Coil item I mentioned.
Actually, that one was from back when I moved from a private chamber to an apartment.
vernal urchin
My group of friends transferred across data centers and carried all of our stuff in our pockets
deep gyro
the coil item costs a fortune too iirc
vernal urchin
We lost none of them afaik, though a lot of it was standard furniture
sleek roost
My recollection is the only restricted pick-up item in housing these days is fish inside an aquarium
vernal urchin
Not specialty stuff
rugged flicker
the coil item costs a fortune too iirc
I actually recall buying it for a couple hundred thousand gil. Might be more expensive now since people don't do Coil as much anymore.
deep gyro
i think someone mentioned none of this was standard furniture
well im glad im aware of this now
tender ice
Do I have to do the Return to Ivalice Quests to start my Shadowbringers relic?
midnight lion
they're quite good, so it's worth doing them
strange coral
You have to complete them to progess
zinc orbitBOT
leaden ginkgo
How do you color the beads on the "Style for Hire" hairstyle?
remote lintel
you cant
atomic forge
Is it possible to get horns like the Padjal?
It'd be neat if it was a Hyur aesthetic option on character creation.
tender ice
Can you get Luminous Crystals from any FATE?
strange coral
Is it possible to get horns like the Padjal?
Nope, the Padjal are special. There are other horns you can get, but not the same, more like demon horns.
raven sage
Can you get Luminous Crystals from any FATE?
Any fate in the designated maps
atomic forge
Oh demon horns sound fun!
remote lintel
the closest would prob be catoblepas horns or whatever its spelled
undyeable though
tender ice
How do I know if I got a crystal from a fate
atomic forge
ya those look neat
slate arrow
you get a bigass notification on your screen

leaden ginkgo
those are some cool ass horns

quick question
As a ummoner, is there anything i would save or use swift cast on cooldown for?
Atm i just use it to instant cast Ruin but ive been wondering if I should use it for somethign important
currently level 40 for more clarification
faint flare
Primarily used to assist with Bahamut stuff later
atomic forge
Can a non-magic character wear the magic set of a given grand company as a glamour?
frozen wind
ooooh for bahamut?
faint flare
Can a non-magic character wear the magic set of a given grand company as a glamo...
No. Cant glamour cross role
atomic forge
ahh
proven magnet
FIRST BOSS LETS GO
frozen wind
I cant wait to get my dragon buddy soon then im really looking forward to being BFFS with him! 😄
I guess for now I can just use swift cast for Outburst then?
faint flare
Swiftcast is primarily a movement tool or to help assist with getting 8 Wyrmwaves during the summon if you missing a ruin stack, or using one for raid buffs
Or you know. Raising people

leaden ginkgo
@faint flare can u not do it with 2 people?
faint flare
With Undersized party and level sync on yes
Undersized party letd you que in with as many as you want
frozen wind
second lieutnaut?
faint flare
Level sync makes learning guaranteed
frozen wind
Is that after private?
twilit arch
no, you do not need second lieutenant to turn in gear for grand company seals
you need sergeant second class
frozen wind
ahhh dang, I need to upgrade four times
im only private second class
wish there was a faster way to get seals outside of fates 😦
obsidian patio
Keep up on your grand company hunting log and do fates near your level
zinc orbitBOT
twilit arch
do your grand company hunting log, you're going to need it anyway for promotions later on
obsidian patio
Leveling roulette also gives a decent amount if you’re the role in need
obsidian patio
...not sure if I’ve ever seen one like that for macros having an item on their icon
What do those macros do?
robust magnet
I don't use any mods so I think I am sure?
remote lintel
oh its your hotbars
robust magnet
the macros do this
obsidian patio
(On/off) isn’t a valid subcommand
robust magnet
I'm trying to recreate the macro system in #protips-and-ui, for the past 2 hours.
With little progress.
(although that macro is an old macro)
obsidian patio
Just remove that bit entirely, the line defaults to flipping visibility when it doesn’t specify on or off
leaden ginkgo
if i do level sync does it sync gear as well
cuz i was told i can do the quest unsync and undersized
faint flare
Yes
remote lintel
duties automatically sync you if youre above level
faint flare
Glower and mind blast are guaranteed even without symc
robust magnet
can also get em in carnival 25 I think?
leaden ginkgo
i wont kill them though
idk what carnival is
and too lazy to do it
can i even beat that dungeon synced by myself
faint flare
Get others to sync with you
robust magnet
If you want all the spells you'll need to do those
faint flare
Blue can solo dungeons with Basic instinct
faint flare
They're really not
robust magnet
they're not.
faint flare
There's far better spells
leaden ginkgo
he only used those 2 spells
robust magnet
to offer.
faint flare
Rams is nice for the freezr
robust magnet
like the one that literally insta kills mobs
faint flare
Fates also scale based on hoe many have been done recently
leaden ginkgo
all i need was he was carrying
faint flare
Rams is just a go to for lazy since it freezes
faint flare
There's much MUCH stronger spells
leaden ginkgo
and dragon cry
faint flare
Its only 220 potency
faint flare
Ultra is 2min cooldown
Choco meteor is superior
With 300 pot aoe
With your bird out
drifting ruin
choco meteor 
drifting ruin
final sting sucks
robust magnet
level 5 death 
faint flare
When buffed
leaden ginkgo
what are the broken mob spells
drifting ruin
yeah I mean final sting is the BLU limit break
faint flare
All the Primal spells
drifting ruin
but I don't think it's great for fates?
leaden ginkgo
i want spells that are great for fates
only
idc about the rest of the sht cuz useless class
drifting ruin
for fates you can get away with choco meteor, ram's voice, ultravibration
probably
ornate geyser
heyo new player here. Im currently playing through the free trial and out of the last few mmos i tried FFXIV is the only one that managed to click with me. I loved the behemoth fight in MHW and i was wondering when i would get to fight him here 👀
faint flare
meanwhile blue kills dungeons in 4mins
leaden ginkgo
choco meteor isnt that chocbo related
robust magnet
clearly not useless then
faint flare
Yes
remote lintel
@ornate geyser hes a world boss that spawns rarely
hes in a few other places too
like the crystal tower raid
leaden ginkgo
my chocobo sucks
faint flare
Also in crystal tower
slate arrow
heyo new player here. Im currently playing through the free trial and out of the...
world boss + boss in the first alliance raid
twilit arch
there's a couple of behemoth fights in game. earliest one is probably going to be in labyrinth of the ancients @ornate geyser
remote lintel
you can also get cute little earrings of him
faint flare
You just need to have the chocobo out for the Meteor boast
ornate geyser
i hope hes as fun as the mhw version
robust magnet
Launcher is nice
faint flare
Primal spells will drastically speed up fates
robust magnet
all the primal spells
faint flare
Both ends is just 600 pot to everything

@ornate geyser he does do the meteor move where you have to get behind rocks

Every mon
leaden ginkgo

At a small chance

phantom flurry
robust magnet
it's the end boss
faint flare
Last boss
leaden ginkgo
even better
obsidian patio
Depending on the level of your blue mage, the chimera from the ARR relic weapon trial is a good substitute
robust magnet
Mantra Magic also
leaden ginkgo
idk what masked carnival is
robust magnet
he's too lazy he said
leaden ginkgo
or how to get there
robust magnet
leaden ginkgo
soooo
drifting ruin
obsidian patio
60 might be too low for soloing it
faint flare
Its by the blue people
robust magnet
he just wants EZ GAINZ for a "useless class"
obsidian patio
Masked Carnival is basically a bunch of mini challenges that you can do for poetics and allied seals
robust magnet
anyway im going to go back to try and figure out this macro.
leaden ginkgo
but which trial is the chimera?
twin delta
Right click gear > dye

gleaming sigil
My ff14 no longer launches for one week now
robust magnet
btw those hotbars are still highlighted in red, goes away when moused over.
gleaming sigil
I hit play button
it just vanishes with no error code
persists on complete re-install
:/
robust magnet
do you use any add-ons, mods, reshaders, or any other type of additional files/injectors?
gleaming sigil
no
robust magnet
have you ever used em in the past?
Have you updated all your PC Drivers?
Have you tried running in administrator mode?
Does any other game have issues?
Did you change any of your PC's hardware before this issue?
Are you using Steam or SE Client.
gleaming sigil
No. I think so. No option to do so/i think my user runs everything as admin by default idk. No other games have issues. No changes. Steam client
It worked last week
w/no hardware changes or anything
robust magnet
have you tried using Steams Verify Game Files.
gleaming sigil
yes
drifting ruin
Does the game actually open and close, or does it never even show up?
robust magnet
I'd double check your PC drivers since you're not entirely sure.
Starting with your GPU.
gleaming sigil
press that
vanishes
I can give a hint which is that when i first installed the game
it had this same issue related to windows media player
so i'm p sure it's windows settings
something w/my dlls
drifting ruin
You using any kind of wack anti-virus or firewall software?
gleaming sigil
but i tried looking into that can't fix it on my own
and doesn't explain why it's breaking now w/no changes
nope
no anti-virus on my pc
drifting ruin
apparently windows media player is required for ffxiv???
does your windows media player function?
gleaming sigil
how do i test it
drifting ruin
open it lol
gleaming sigil
i made sure it was installed and even tried reinstalling
idk what opening it means
i wasn't aware it was an actual program
just thought it was a systems thing
but it says installed
drifting ruin
press start and search for it:
gleaming sigil
no programs of that name shows up for me
drifting ruin
yikes
gleaming sigil
robust magnet
go to Microsoft's support page and download it I guess
drifting ruin
well, to clarify if this is even the problem
what's the exact windows version you're using?
gleaming sigil
N
drifting ruin
yeah this is probably the problem
gleaming sigil
other than perhaps a forced update
drifting ruin
enabling it again, restarting
gleaming sigil
okay
drifting ruin
Windows does like to force updates on you
robust magnet
Also, make sure you're Windows is fully up to date

@leaden ginkgo once.
leaden ginkgo

drifting ruin
@gleaming sigil Did you go into "optional features" to disable it there?
leaden ginkgo
WHAT IS THE %
gleaming sigil
yeah
drifting ruin
no one knows the %
robust magnet
You need to kill him
gleaming sigil
it decided to come back
drifting ruin
does ffxiv work now? :^)
robust magnet
drifting ruin
in your optional features, is it still disabled?
drifting ruin
leaden ginkgo
@robust magnet wait he ahs to die?
i thought he has to do the spell
then i have chance at learning
robust magnet
It might be best to reach out to SE Support.
When you Uninstalled FFXIV, did you make sure ALL FFXIV related folders were gone too?
drifting ruin
That's how BLU works, they do the spell and then you kill them
gleaming sigil
no
robust magnet
- See the Spell
- Not be dead
- Enemy Dies
Synced is 100% chance, Unsynced is straight up RNG to the veins.

@gleaming sigil I don't think you need to reinstall FFXIV, the problem seems to be the media player issue
faint flare
You should have carnival if you've been doing your job quests and blue
faint flare
Not hard
robust magnet
Feel free to uninstall make sure there are no FFXIV folders left, (including temp folders) and retrying
I don't think it'll be the issue, but it's generally a good rule of thumb.
I think it might be best to reach out to SE Support.
And yeah, it's kinda weird how your windows is showing those icons for stuff like Windows Media Player.
robust magnet
Carnival 25 isn't the most easiest of fights but it's not hard either.
faint flare
Its also how you get some additional spells, by clearing a set amount of stages
You get totems from one of the npcs

i have a sht ton of totems
kinda useless those but uh the blue mage people

@gleaming sigil What if you search for "Turn Windows features on or off" in the start menu
and find it in there
under "Media Features"

Hii im looking to get into FFXIV is there any difference from the Steam version vs going to SE website to buy it? other than steam locks you into buying keys only from Steam

What job should you level after leveling a starting tank to 80?
robust magnet
whichever job interests you next.
steep monolith
What are the benefits of having multiple jobs anyway?
robust magnet
not getting bored of the game?
Having more things to do?
Completion/Achievements?
More fun than just one Job?
drifting ruin
feel like stabbing things? go melee dps
feel like blasting things? go blm
feel like being beaten up? go tank
robust magnet
More End game options, but literally and comedically (Raids and Glamour)
drifting ruin
Also, it's worth knowing that in Shadowbringers, there's a quest line for each role (tank, dps, healer)
and they're pretty nice stories
warped nest
If you play different jobs and roles, you get a bigger selection to pick from in party finder
drifting ruin
Regarding what tank to pick, they're all good. Use whichever is more aesthetically pleasing to you
warped nest
Or even duty finder: Dps will probably beat tank for alliance raid queue
zinc orbitBOT
shut panther
The only recommendation I'd make is if your first job was DPs choose tank or healer for the second so you have something if you just want to play quickly
Since they have short queues on everything but crystal tower roulette

If I'm grinding for SHB monster materials such as cubus flesh, which method is fastest? Fate farming for gemstones or just grinding the monsters themselves?

Dow retainer if you've got one
last finch
I'm working on retainer rn. While I wait for them to hit 80, what's the fastest?
shut panther
Personally I'd just grind gil via other methods and purchase the stuff -- both fates and Monster grinding are pretty inefficient
leaden ginkgo
?
last finch
Trying to make tons of an item to sell so buying would cut the profits in like half.
shut panther
HOW DO I train chcoobo is the question
Chocobo gains experience from combat, so fight things with it out.
leaden ginkgo
oh aw
shut panther
If you've got a house you can stable it
And train it once an hour there with good e
Food
last finch
If you've got a house you can stable it
if your FC has a house that has a stable you can usually use that too
shut panther
What are the pros and cons of all of the tanks?
First preface: none of these things are big differences. Every tank can do anything in the game.
leaden ginkgo
how do i get the food
shut panther
Gnb: highest damage, extra cd, busier rotation, mediocre invuln, limited self healing
gusty hare
how long does it take to get 71-80 with fates and dungeons?
shut panther
Pld: 2nd on damage, nearly infinite self healing (but with a cost), abilities favour offtanking, best invuln but high cd
last finch
how long does it take to get 71-80 with fates and dungeons?
It can take a good week or two but you can significantly speed up the process if you spend a lot of time in Bozja
gusty hare
haven't finished 5.0 yet (i'm leveling a alt before having finished an MSQ, yes), so I haven't even unlocked Bozja
shut panther
War: 3rd on damage, massive self healing at effectively zero cost, invuln is low cd and probably second best
last finch
haven't finished 5.0 yet (i'm leveling a alt before having finished an MSQ, yes)...
Oh if you haven't finished MSQ it won't be a lot of time the MSQ quests give TONS of exp.

shut panther
Drk: 4th on damage, limited self healing but absurdly powerful short cd mitigation, rotation isn't far from warrior's except with more ogcds
last finch

You first need to beat the Stormblood alliance raids and you can find a quest in Kugane
Oh yeah you also need to be lv80
shut panther
Oh and pld has a spell phase and drk invuln is usually the worst

I think it's on market, Google FFXIV chocobo training food
oblique yew

i thought the point was to lvl from 71 to 80
shut panther
Living dead is situationally very good, but it's usually bad.
shut panther
i thought the point was to lvl from 71 to 80
For alt jobs
Your first job should be levelled via msq
last finch
i thought the point was to lvl from 71 to 80
Yeah brain fart mb I thought they meant levelling classes that aren't their main and kinda just assumed they had a class at lv80
shut panther
And if you've started a different job Mid msq it's typically roulettes/highest available dungeon/potd/hoh
last finch
With MSQ quests it won't take a lot of time as long as they play a lot.
Though I haven't done msq stuff in a while so I can't really guess an amount of days
junior crow
what are y'alls thoughts on the "easiest" job? I'll admit I enjoy facerolling
remote lintel
dancer, red mage, machinist, dragoon, monk
shut panther
Warrior for tank, WHM healer, rdm or dancer DPs, imo
last finch
Honestly I kinda feel like BLM is one of the easiest
shut panther
MCH feels difficult to me because of my poor latency
remote lintel
oh yeah if you have high ping then maybe not mch
shut panther
BLM is.. Definitely not the easy job.
last finch
idk it felt the easiest to me
remote lintel
black mage's rotation is easy but you need to learn how to really utilize your movement skills
last finch
true
silver ruin
blm is fine for high latency but ^
yea that, makes it not easy
the movement skill part
shut panther
BLM needs to be learned on a fight to fight basis in a way that isn't nearly as important for other jobs
last finch
its easy as hell for dungeons most of the time imo but it gets really hard in raids admittedly
shut panther
And also aggressively punishes mistakes
remote lintel
i would say dancer and red mage are probably the 2 easiest dps classes
warrior and whm for tank and healer
shut panther
If you wanted to play melee, it's probably DRG
junior crow
i might try rdm. it's what i played in xi, but it seems like a different class, now
remote lintel
the core of red mage is alternating between black and white spells and then using your melee combo for burst
thats basically it
junior crow
interesting, sounds fun
shut panther
For how simple the rotation is the aesthetics are incredibly appealing, IMO
remote lintel
dancer is literally just "press glowy button and do dance dance revolution once in a while"
shut panther
People complain that scorch was an incredibly boring thing to add in shb but the animation is super satisfying to me
last finch
honestly I just think SHB RDM was boring as a whole not just scorch but it definitely was insult to injury
remote lintel
but verflare and verholy give me serotonin
slate arrow
To be fair, it's not like they could've done anything else as is with Stormblood red mage besides some trimming of the fat
last finch
but just another combo addition felt stale
slate arrow
It didn't need a rework and there's not anything else they could've done besides QoL
But that's #general-discussion xP
last finch
Anyways back to my original question. I know that ventures are the best for this but I don't have access to those atm. Would SHB fates be faster than grinding monsters for their mats or no?
stable herald
Can trusts handle mob packs by themselves?
Like, single pack
i just sit back and afk
silver ruin
Can trusts handle mob packs by themselves?
probably? but its gonna be super damn slow, and they can only do that if you're on a dps
and they dont pull unless you pull/are close enough to aggro something
honest anvil
I did that once; was afk to 5 min iirc and mobs were still alive when i returned
stable herald
was just thinkin of going to the toilet etc
and might as well set them on something while, ya know
honest anvil
little dmg is still dmg ig
remote lintel
cant you just like force the healer to use death if you make them pull a lot
cobalt mauve
How to rank up a FC
remote lintel
use seals to get promotions
cobalt mauve
I am in one and got 45k seals to help w/ the leveling if they need it
How do I ask for a promotion of the fc
remote lintel
the npc next to the gc shop
raven sage
fc not gc
remote lintel
oh
cobalt mauve
yeah fc
remote lintel
then its up to the leaders of the fc
cobalt mauve
Wait so I can't help them?
shut panther
FC just ranks up naturally as people do things
raven sage
Ask them if they need anything
cobalt mauve
Cause I have significantly more seals than them
raven sage
They're in charge of everything
remote lintel
if you mean the rank of the fc then you just play the game
if you mean your own rank within the fc then its up to the leaders
cobalt mauve
This is a new FC and they are tryna level it up
remote lintel
you just do stuff in the game
shut panther
It's not related to GC seals
cobalt mauve
Apparently it is
Acc to them all the turn ins i did almost got them to rank 3
Or is turn ins how i help them lvl up
shut panther
Basically any activity in the game will give FC experience
cobalt mauve
And the seals are just a bonus
raven sage
Yes
shut panther
Turning in things is one of them
shut panther
Buy things from the GC vendor
shut panther
I usually use them on ventures.
cobalt mauve
What do ventures do
faint flare
Ventures, glamour prisms, cordials
forest sage
give you gil and more ventures back
shut panther
There's a few marketable things there, some glam, some useful items for leveling.. ventures.
faint flare
Ventures allow you to send retainers out to get stuff
cobalt mauve
What is cordials
faint flare
Gatherer mp pots
cobalt mauve
Do I sell them
faint flare
Or use
shut panther
Yes, you can sell them
forest sage
the normal ones you get aren't that great tbh but if you're still lvling they're nice enough to use, they sell too but not for a good price imo(but still better than nothing)
zinc orbitBOT
forest sage
most of the GC stuff you can sell is like that, it's not worth much, but it's better than nothing
faint flare
There's some other stuff like some mats you can to price check and all
silver ruin
coke, cordials, hardened sap all sell fairly fast
forest sage
if you can't be bothered that's fine too you don't lose much
although ventures can generate decent amounts of money so GC seals > ventures tends to be a pretty good conversion, often better than buying actual items
cobalt mauve
Which rank do i need to be for the ability to buy venture
forest sage
that's assuming you can do your ventures frequently enough, since it's pretty RNG so you need to hit that pull enough times to get good stuff
it's one of the earliest thing you can buy
cobalt mauve
How much do they cost each 🤔
forest sage
it's in the first tab, so I'd assume you can buy them as soon as you unlock GC seals
200? forgot
cobalt mauve
yep 200
And when can i buy cordials?
oh found em too
wow those r worthless
ima just buy 45k worth of venture them
What is best class for ventures @forest sage
And how long does it take to max a retainer
forest sage
maxing retainers take a fucking long time
and you can't have retainers higher than your own classes
forest sage
so if you don't have gatherers capped then you just do combat classes
you get 2 default, more require paying per month on top fo your sub so most ppl stick with 2
surreal phoenix
you get 2 default, more require paying per month on top fo your sub so most ppl ...
Pyros i think it is 3 default
forest sage
no it isn't
forest sage
I just use 2 unless a new expansion launch then I buy 2 more for a month to get settled with all the new crap+gear
bronze narwhal
hello, is it possible to dye a furniture without putting them into inventory first? I found reddit post about it, but the subcommand option doesnt have dye option on it
forest sage
do you have a dye in your bag?
cobalt mauve
@forest sage Ah, these are all my classes
bronze narwhal
I do, plenty of them
silver ruin
what option are you on for housing settings
forest sage
yeah then just make 2 combat classes, 2 marauders or whatever you're gonna max first
bronze narwhal
indoor furnishing
vernal urchin
i'm pretty sure you can use housing item preview to place down a preview of the item, and then check out the colors from there
forest sage
you can respec the retainers later if needed, they reset to 1 but it's not a big deal
silver ruin
no when you open h ousing settings it gives you options to like move furnture, rotate furniture, dye furniture, place in bag, place in storage
it should be the dye furniture option
vernal urchin
oh i misread what was asked
silver ruin
the big buttons at the bottom of your screen
silver ruin
an area in ishgard for crafting
it has another area where you gather the stuff you can make for the firmament called the diadem, you level by gathering stuff in the diadem
cobalt mauve
And how do i unlock it
silver ruin
you need to have completed 3.3 in the main story quests then
You unlock the quest right outside of the Ishgard aetheryte (X 9.7, Y 11.5) and requires a Lv60 battle class that has completed the main story quest “Litany of Peace'' (Patch 3.3). It only needs a lv20 crafter class or lv10 gathering class.
silver ruin
summoner and scholar share exp so if one is 80, the other is 80 aswell
no
because only those 2 share exp
cobalt mauve
only those two i think share exp
warped nest
Just those two
Take note that you still need to do Scholar job quests
To unlock any missing skills
silver ruin
basically yes, but do job quests ofc
silver ruin
you need to finish patch 3.3 or something
thats uh
a little more than just the base expansion quests

silver ruin
you can buy gear off the market board if you arent on a trial yes, but you should have also gotten a set of left side gear from your job quests
cobalt mauve
Unpopular opinion but I ain't a big fan of HW
silver ruin
that being said if you're in heavensward dungeons, you can either farm gear, buy off the market board, or buy gear with poetics from mhor dona
cobalt mauve
One of the main reasons is I hate the areas of HW so much
silver ruin
can still buy gear with poetics if you have them, from mhor dona, left side gear from job quests (lv 50 job quest specifically is decent)
cobalt mauve
silver ruin
or you can hit the market board
cobalt mauve
Another reason is MF THIS

but dont buy no quality gear, no quality gear is garbage off the market board
