I sold the lvl 30 DRK weapon earlier but now I want to play DRK but the weaponsmith in Ishgard doesn't sell it and I can't craft it, how can I can it back ?

glossy flare
#

If you just want any DRK weapon check the MB

raw granite
#

They sell it at 40k

#

no fucking way am I paying that much

twilit arch
#

elbert in the pillars sells it

glossy flare
#

Could also check the basic weapons traders in the hub cities

#

They should have some drk weapon

raw granite
#

The earliest DRK weapon is lvl 34

raw granite
spark cradle
#

the link i gave has all vendors with it

raw granite
#

So it's sold in every city except the one you get the job in. Weird...

#

thanks !

spark cradle
#

look in my link

raw granite
#

I did

spark cradle
#

yes and it gives the vendor there

twilit arch
#

adaillie and elbert are both in ishgard

raw granite
#

Elbert doesn't sell it

#

oh there's 5 pages of vendors

#

didn't see that

wicked blade
#

is "next devaluation" any indication of housing timer? or how long it's been for sale already?

leaden ginkgo
#

how should i level/skill blu

terse roost
#

Yue - It is in a WAY. The First Devaluation happens at a fixed point, after that every six hours, and based on the size/location of the plot, there's a defined curve

#

So if you're on say the third devaluation, you know it's "at least" 12 hours old since it's had 2 devaluations since the first. The problem is if it went on the market 20 hours before that first fixed devaluation, it's 32 hours old. If it went on the market a second beforehand, it's just 12 hours.

wicked blade
#

oh ;w; how do you know how maby
devaluations?

terse roost
#

If you do some googling you'll likely find the tables showing the values/devaluation curves

wicked blade
#

thanks!

terse roost
#

You'd have to know the plot and it's curve. So the curve might say a Tier 4 small selling at X price means it's had it's third deval.

#

IT's a really complex system on the back end.

spark cradle
#

are FATE's best method for alexandrite grind?

twilit arch
#

no, buy mystery maps with poetics from auriana

spark cradle
#

how much are those?

twilit arch

oof

wicked blade

wish i didn't buy my scaevan gear now

wicked blade
#

I'm at a place with 30 min left at 3,187,500, can i assume it hasnt devalued yet?

naive kraken
#

unless a higher class plot devalues to that, correct

where do i find hunting logs

#

Do minor patches to the game (5.x) typically bring in new soundtracks?

forest laurel
#

if on console, it's in the logs section

remote lintel
#

yes with new trials and raids

twilit arch
#

5.x would be a major patch, by the by

forest laurel
#

yeah

twilit arch
#

minor patches would be 5.xx

sturdy mason
remote lintel
#

that too

forest laurel
#

but yeah sometimes there's new songs added

new content = new music usually

bitter pivot
#

Is there any sort of cooldown on my ability to send mail to the same friend, or does the "Unable to send letter to ___" always mean their mailbox is full?

twilit arch
#

usually mailbox is full

hot eagle
#

also can't send more as 5 mails per day to the same person iirc

sturdy mason
#

I guess that also partly explains why the current expansion OST is not on spotify. The OST isn't "Done" until the next one.

scarlet arrow
#

FFXIV actually has a Guinness World Record for largest video game soundtrack

hollow violet
#

Where do I unlock The Navel and The Howling Eye (Hard) versions? Next MSQ requires both of those and the Bowl of Embers (Hard) - which I already have access to

terse roost
#

I know that the Shadowbringers OST album started with a bunch of tracks from I think 4.1-4.5 ish, so I'd imagine Endwalker will do the same.

leaden ginkgo
#

I can't seem to find forest funguars

terse roost
#

And yeah, I have only 4 of the OST albums (Before Meteor, Heavensward, Far Edge of Fate, & Shadowbringers) and it's over 20 hours. So the full has to be somewhere in the 30+ hour range not including the unreleased stuff, the Primals reduxes, etc.

#

Central Shroud, Isekai.

#

@hollow violet Return Ye to the Waking Sands, I believe.

twilit arch
#

need to complete bowl of embers (hard), then garuda's quest will be at the waking sands from papalymo. Complete howling eye (hard) and then titan's will be available in the waking sands from y'shtola @hollow violet

naive kraken
#

is it literally a chance every second for a housing plot to go on the market as purchaseable?

hollow violet

Sio -Yes. From the point it goes on market, the timer is 100% random to the secon

naive kraken

would be nicer if it was 30 second intervals XD

terse roost
#

To help the click spamming, turn on your numpad. I THINK the sequence to buy a house is something like 0,0,0,4,0. Test it out, but it's something like that.

Much easier to tap that out than click spam

I need help if anyone knows what to do I keep gettin this error when updating my client (just started) and it won’t let me download the game and I just bought the expansion and game time anyone know what to do? My errors are 30413 25008 20495 20495

I don’t remember going through this on my last pc when I first started downloading the client or what I did if I did go through this

Is spamming the MSQ Roulette a good way to level and get Tomestones at the same time? Or does it only give good XP once a day with the bonus?

faint flare
#

Only good xp with bonus

terse roost
#

Only do it once a day for the bonus, along with your other roulettes like leveling.

#

Ok please help me understand command missions. People say they're great for xp and you can clear quickly but holy cow the AI is really bad. I have to mark every enemy with engage for the tank to actually notice them, all the squad members stand in every aoe damage and the healer can't keep up. Do they get better? Cuz right now it seems like duty roulette is a much better option

little swift
#

they're better if your queue times suck

#

because running those dungeons with the ai gives mildly increased exp

#

in comparison

#

but it can take a bit longer if they don't have the right tactics

edgy stream
#

Hey is it just me or does it seem like you roll under 50, 90% of the times more than actually over 50

little swift
#

rng is rng

edgy stream
#

I've done 20 rolls so far and not one was over 30 pogO

little swift
#

🤷‍♂️

#

thats just confirmation bias

#

i could say the same about my rolls and my static mate always rolling 99s

#

that doesn't mean its true that rolls are always worse

edgy stream
#

yeah but rolling under 30, 20x in a row is slim to impossible

pastel hinge
little swift
#

your squadron has a chance of increasing their tactics upon completion of a command mission

#

which type you get is random

pastel hinge
#

Damn so I just gotta deal with the bad AI for a while I guess

little swift
#

thats how statistics work

edgy stream
little swift
#

i doubt its weighted to be unfavourable to you in particular thats just placebo

#

you're just confirming your own bias by only remembering bad rolls

edgy stream
#

Woudln't suprise me if the game was coded against you to make grinding more

faint flare
#

Rng is ass sometimes

#

Just get over it

#

There 99 numbers to roll in each seperate scenario

little swift
#

the game literally handholds you with so many guaranteed ways to get stuff

faint flare
#

Shits gonna happen

little swift
#

totems, tomes, books, tokens, etc

naive kraken
#

ive missed 3 out of 4 hits on nodes at 95% chance regularly

terse roost
#

I'd recommend making sure to change it up and sometimes do the duty roulette even with the queue over the AI, stro, unless you only play at times where the wait is redonk. Trying to grind out that much with the AI will drive you spare.

modest igloo
#

i've had bad rng happen to me before, like 40 drops in maps and didn't get a single one. it happens to all of us

naive kraken
#

if its not 100, it's 75% at best XD

little swift
#

trying to correlate independent roll situations is just bad for your mental health

little swift
#

it does though

#

since all thats happening right now is complaining. there's no actual question

#

can keep your tin foil hat on that your rng specifically is weighted against you

edgy stream
#

I guess

little swift
#

but realistically you just happen to have had a series of independent low rolls

gritty oracle
#

sometimes it be like that. RNG is RNG

warped seal
#

I've played this game since ARR. RNG is a crapshoot. There is no mercy, this isn't a gachapon.

naive kraken
#

it tends to feel like o ther games/RPGs tend to have some kind of pity factor in if you've gotten a bunch of low rolls

warped seal
#

You roll a fresh 0-99 anytime you roll.

naive kraken
#

just not XCOM

terse roost
#

That's why so much of the gear is tomestone-related. Those are guaranteed. So it offsets a bad run of RNG.

naive kraken
#

tomestones are to keep lev 80s helping out with lower content

tacit lily
#

Why I’m much closer to getting Thordan’s bird from 99 runs than a drop...

fresh lodge
#

Because RNG is RNG

terse roost
#

At 80 Sio, sure, but I also mean across other points of leveling. If I'm doing dungeons close to 70 I might miss out on drop after drop that's an upgrade from my 60's gear and that sucks. But the poetics I'm getting mean when I hit 70 and finish that side of the story I'll be able to upgrade slots with the newly unlocked stuff.

little swift
#

leveling dungeons guarantee you a piece you can equip on completion

#

level cap dungeons do not since tome gear would be better than whatever you wanted from the dungeon

fresh lodge
#

The only reason you should have problems getting gear while levelling is if you're not using MSQ or Dungeons to level

#

But then it shouldn't matter because you're not doing on level content anyways

naive kraken
fresh lodge
#

If you want gear at level 66, either buy it or run Bardum's

terse roost
#

They're accumulating for 70, so in the long term they are. My point being that even if RNG is being unkind, there's enough sources of gear NOT tied to RNG it shouldn't cripple anyone's progression.

gritty oracle
naive kraken
terse roost
#

I mean, hell, better than the old days of MMO's where not only was RNG your only real option, people could fake rolls. That shit used to be infuriating.

There is no max timer.

It could theoretically last months.

I don't know there's ever been on definitively defined.

realistically though, not more than a couple days

Practically speaking I don't think I've ever heard of one being more than like, 4 days.

my main got a medium from a friend that bought a dissolving FC as a gift 2 christmases ago XD

on top of getting a random shirogane plot in 4.4

There's still RMT that happen for people shifting plots, but it's more controlled.

radiant kayak

well you have to have a house to do the shifting plot in the first place now

Can you limit the number or status effects showing on target? Like having maximum of 5-10 status showing so it doesn’t clutter the UI

if you can't afford it blood bou and matcha are still fine alternatives, but you're more at the mercy to condition procs and quality gain rolls

jade lava

I see I see, Ty for the help, gonna start trying to gear my crafters anyway so I'll start doing that

terse roost
#

@abstract vapor One handy note, Status effects you put on a target SHOULD move to the front. SO like if there's 3 paladins in the raid, your Goring Blade DoT should be the first listed and should have a greenish number as opposed to white for the timer.

is she wearing enough gear

Yeah her average Ilv is 270

little swift

these are teh requirements

Double check what Alexander raids she has

#

Cause at 69 its only picking Alexander stuff

#

So its saying you dont have 2 or more

useful to see those for coordinating burst

but troublesome in raids when the boss has ten billion debuffs and you gotta just uh, update dots when you roughly think it's time

but I see why

atomic forge
#

Where's the best place to discuss FFlogs and other mechanic minutae?

twilit arch
little swift
#

Here is fine

#

I can probably answer it

atomic forge
#

I'm trying to figure out a couple of things regarding the Eden's Promise logs. First, I'm surprised Black Mage is so high on damage but so low on popularity. Second, which may explain the first, I'm trying to understand why Black Mage has one of the biggest damage ranges. My initial thought is that Black Mage might be harder to play than most classes (which would explain the big delta).

open coral
#

Channy really wants to answer endgame questions today. 🙂

#

Movement would be the simplest answer, I think.

little swift
cinder maple
little swift
#

Black mage has a ton of movement tools at its disposal that make for the skill gap for many players

#

I wouldn't take the uploaded data for face value on job popularity though

#

We have no official data regarding that

remote lintel
#

black mage is a turret caster that relies on staying still to attack and a lot of players have a hard time making use iof its movement skills

#

but it is one of the top dps, at least it was for last tier

little swift
#

The relies on staying still is a bit disingenuous as every job benefits from not running around like a dingus

#

Moving unnecessarily is stupid on every job

mystic lily
#

Black mage is what's defined as selfish dps

#

It provides very little in terms of utility to the group, but it can do very high damage

little swift
#

And all casters would have to utilize their movement tools just as much

open coral
#

Selfish dps just means "high damage, low raid utility". That's not why there's such a huge range of damage on logs.

atomic forge
#

So it's the sheer number of movement skills then?

#

Are the movement skills hard to use?

remote lintel
#

i meant you need to stay still to cast and each cast takes a few seconds and you have 15 seconds total to keep your combo going

atomic forge
#

For BM?

faint flare
#

No

little swift
open coral
#

It's less about the number of movement skills and more about the fact that many people don't use them efficiently to maximize their uptime.

remote lintel
#

also damage =/= popularity

little swift
atomic forge
little swift
#

It would be more arguable to say that white mage would be tougher on movement because it has fewer instant cast options for continuous movement

open coral
#

UGH

remote lintel
#

i was saying its a turret caster

open coral
#

WHM suffers a lot from constant movement from a dps perspective.

little swift
open coral
#

Plenty of ways to heal while moving, but limited options to keep up Glare.

little swift
#

People not understanding how to make good use of those tools and how they line up with mechanics makes shows the skill disparity

atomic forge
#

So something is special about Black Mage

little swift
#

Its true to an extent to all jobs

remote lintel
#

blm arguably has a higher skill ceiling than most jobs

open coral
#

Because the nature of BLM, more than any other job, is that they want to be able to stand still, at least for the duration of their Leylines.

little swift
#

But as cerberus mentioned black mage has a lot of longer casts

open coral
#

But Promise is a very high movement fight, which means finding your window to drop Leylines and freecast is harder.

twilit arch
#

also a lot of people get told "you have to stand still as a blm, and know fights perfectly" and get turned off of it

#

thinking its super hard job to play

little swift
#

So what inevitably ends up happening is people tend to drop casts and lose uptime so they do less damace

open coral
#

And that's where the skill gap comes in.

twilit arch
#

when realistically its not that different from other jobs, and takes practice

atomic forge
#

I see, ty all for the overview!

little swift
atomic forge
#

As far as the first issue, why are number of parses a bad way to judge popularity of a job in a Eden's Promise?

leaden ginkgo
#

I have a question, is there a way I can get a free fantasia past ARR?

remote lintel
#

because not everyone plays savage and people switch classes all the time

#

and not everyone brings their favorite job to savage

twilit arch
#

Plenty of people don't bother parsing for one, and two not everyone does savage

remote lintel
#

some people might just bring a melee dps even if they're neutral to it just because a static needs a melee

mystic lily
#

Compared to other games, would the people who play savage be about the same percentage as people who do higher tier raids

open coral
#

No

little swift
#

Also not everyone uses act

#

And not everyone does parsed contrnt

open coral
#

The percentage of players who do Savage in XIV is a fraction of the percentage of players who do Heroic or Mythic raiding in WoW.

atomic forge
#

The total number of parse uploads doesn't matter, does it? Except to ensure you have a good sample size (I think tens of thousands is pretty good?). The differences are all relative. The only way the relativity would matter is if one Job is uploading parses much more than another, and I can't see a reason why that would ever happen.

I know it doesn't represent the whole population of a job, but it does represent the differences in popularity between jobs.

heavy wadi
#

not really

remote lintel
#

sure but youre pulling samples from a specific type of people (those who enjoy endgame raids) which isn't reflective of the majority of people who play xiv

heavy wadi
#

^

remote lintel
#

a lot of players dont do savage

atomic forge
#

Yeah, but my question was about popularity in Eden's Promise.

foggy hemlock
#

Does anyone no if drop rates have changed for vexatious memories. Ain’t getting any😤

remote lintel
#

we gave you other reasons why it still isn't a good predictor of popularity

warm snow
#

They were buffed a while ago but it's still rng

atomic forge
#

Black Mages are heavily under-represented in Eden's Promise.

warm snow
#

I wonder why...

open coral
#

You're looking at maybe 1% of people in the entire game as not everyone who does either normal or Savage Eden runs ACT or uploads logs.

#

It's a very small subset.

warm snow
#

Of the people that do savage not all of them upload logs

heavy wadi
#

hell, it's a subset of a subset

#

I doubt the majority of people that do savage raids use logs or upload them

atomic forge
#

I don't think I'm explaining myself very well.

open coral
#

Most people doing normal aren't uploading to ACT. Only a fraction of the people doing Savage are bothering to upload to ACT.

#

So you're still not getting a good idea of the popularity of a job in that content.

atomic forge
#

I'm not asking about normal or the total population. I'm asking about the population of Eden's Promise players.

warm snow
#

But why though?

mystic lily
#

Also, are we differentating between people who do savage as their primary thing and those who do savage occasionally with the FC or friends here

atomic forge
#

Curiosity?

warm snow
#

Also what

#

You don't want the normal or the total?

#

You just the savage then?

#

No real metrics exist

#

Closest is act uploads and that's as we've explained a terrible metric

atomic forge
#

It does.

remote lintel
#

are you trying to ask which job people enjoy the most or what

open coral
#

The logs for Savage represent a fraction of a fraction of a percent.

atomic forge
#

It's a fine metric.

heavy wadi
#

no it's not

#

not for enjoyment lol

mystic lily
#

Back in Stormblood i did savage with my FC, but it wasn't my primary interest with the game, as a reference

heavy wadi
#

there's always an optimal party comp for savage and that may mean ppl will have to play classes they don't enjoy

#

it's not a good metric of popularity or enjoyment

mystic lily
#

But we also had a fair few who did savage because they enjoyed it to a certain extent to

heavy wadi
#

numeric measures can't be used in qualitative analysis, anyways

warm snow
#

The game is well balanced enough that any job can clear any content.

heavy wadi
#

well true, but sometimes people want, say, an sch or a nin

raven burrow
#

are any missions soloable in sub 5 mins for the moogle tomes ?

heavy wadi
#

can't solo for esoterics

mystic lily
#

Quantitative analysis provides a foundation to ask qualitative questions on

open coral
#

You have to do everything synced for the event tomes.

#

The only thing that you could do in 5 minutes or so would be a BLU + tank AV run.

raven burrow
#

hmhm , any recommended content? i dont have a lot of time to play

open coral
#

3x BLU + tank of your choice.

#

Aurum Vale

atomic forge
#

It's just interesting that a class that puts out (at least) top 2 damage is the in the bottom 3 classes played in that same content.

raven burrow
#

dont have a blue either PepeRain

atomic forge
#

I was trying to understand why

manic flare
#

what are moogle tomes

open coral
#

BLU bring Ram's Voice + Ultravibration for trash, Final Sting for the last boss.

remote lintel
#

the popularity of a job and how much damage it does are unrelated

atomic forge
#

They are?

#

In end-game content?

open coral
warm snow
remote lintel
#

you just said black mage does a ton of damage and is one of the least popular classes

warm snow
#

Because the game is balanced enough that outside of enough party comp to get the variety bonuses party makeup doesn't matter

manic flare
atomic forge
#

Hmm, yeah I suppose if the competitive scene (assuming Eden's Promise is competitive) is much less than that of WoW.

open coral
remote lintel
#

and the damage relies on player skill

#

more than the class

atomic forge
#

Agree

mystic lily
#

There's a rule to any game that has raids, there will always be optimized comps that math the encounter out to it's fullest to what will perform the best

warm snow
#

Blm has high potential dps but has to stay still most of the time so its unpopular because of all the movement needed for the raid mechanics

open coral
warm snow
#

High potential dps isn't enough

little swift
#

The only competition is world first racing

#

And speedkills

open coral
#

Even W1st isn't anywhere near the scale that it is for WoW.

manic flare
twilit arch
#

no

little swift
#

Neither of which are representative of the full subset of players participating in savage

twilit arch
#

it has to be sync'd

warm snow
#

or making the most cursed wedding photos in gpose

atomic forge
little swift
#

Again it doesn't have to stay still any more or less than other casters

warm snow
#

That's why it's not in a lot of fflogs but again fflogs is still a poor metric for what jobs are being used the most in raids

little swift
#

Its disingenuous to imply that when it has more movement tools than red mage does

remote lintel
#

like i said, just because a class can do big damage doesnt mean it will be popular

raven burrow
#

what content should i queue up for then? i only really want 50 moogle tomes in shortest time possible

warm snow
#

Find an aurum Vale blu group in pf or make your own

atomic forge
warm snow
#

Because only a fraction of people doing raids upload logs

little swift
#

Trying to discern popularity when it isn't always a statistically applicable reason is why its not valid

#

Sometimes people just don't

#

And thats it

atomic forge
open coral
#

They're not representative of the whole population of Savage raiders.

heavy wadi
#

Also, as other people have said, the balance in ffxiv is fantastic unlike wow, so every class is viable for every sort of content.

mystic lily
#

Yep, that's also to do with that WoW has active logging addons that are allowed by the developers

atomic forge
little swift
#

And uploaded public logs don't show all logs uploaded

#

And also only show completed runs

mystic lily
#

Whereas logging in FF14 is a greyzone, it's not allowed per se, but as long as it's used for personal use it is allowed

heavy wadi
#

ahh yes, a minority of a minority, perfectly representative

warm snow
#

By your logic

open coral
atomic forge
#

sigh

open coral
#

The 5% being savage raiders, and the 1% being those who actually upload their logs.

atomic forge
#

I think I'm over the topic, some folks are resorting to condescension and I'd rather just not.

mystic lily
#

1-5% is pretty representative of the top end raiders for most MMO's to be fair

open coral
#

I was a Mythic raider in WoW. It's such a different thing.

slim remnant
#

How does upgrading from a trial account on Steam even work? Do you just buy the full game on it and continue onwards?
And how does gifting in that sense work, same deal?

glossy flare
#

A small percentage of something might be representative of something larger. But just by looking at the uploaded logs you can't draw that conclusion. You don't know anything about the people uploading them.

open coral
remote lintel
#

@slim remnant buy the game and enter your cd key into mogstation

mystic lily
#

Sure, many more below that does difficult raids, but talking top end difficulty 1-5% is more or less the norm

warm snow
#

Logs in ff14 are from a third party software that technically violates tos. As such the uploaded logs are representative of a very small percentage of those actually doing the raids

#

There are no official logs

rigid narwhal
#

uh like 10% of the population of every server owns eden mount

atomic forge
#

You understand the percentage of people uploading logs doesn't matter when you are looking at the RELATIVE differences between job populations?

rigid narwhal
#

what's this shit about no one clearing savage

#

20%+ on jp

mystic lily
#

Getting carried most likely

#

Or just doing it casually

rigid narwhal
#

that 10-20% that have cleared the final boss

#

so more have cleared lower floors lmao

warm snow
open coral
#

That's what we're trying to explain.

glossy flare

#

difference between augmented and non augmented law order equipment, cosmetic wise?

Spoiler alert: alot of players in this game are bad

twilit arch

augmented can be dyed

glossy flare

Black Mage, in Eden's Promise, is an unpopular job.

They don't have to.

You don't need everyone

Still sad DRS couldn't be sold

atomic forge
remote lintel

we told you why

patent citrus
#

not a good prog class maybe?

fresh lodge
#

Its a fine prog class

little swift
#

Its a difficult class to prog with because of trying understand and work with your movement tools

fresh lodge
#

But BLM requires a lot of forethought to achieve top DPS

little swift
#

But that doesn't extrapolate to the data you're asking about

#

Prog in general is tough

fresh lodge
#

Plus RDM and SMN have a raise which is useful in progging to conserve healer MP

heavy wadi
#

blm requires you to really know the fight to know where to stand to move as little as possible

raw solstice
#

mm, that's not exactly true

open coral
#

Not unpopular, just not a team player.

raw solstice
#

it's more about knowing the job better and being able to take advantage of the tools it has in order to keep uptime. Which, there are a lot of tools nowadays. Sure better positioning and such can and will help, but things like that help other jobs, too

patent citrus

best way to farm these bozjan runner secret/bozjan coin?

#

still CLL/DR savage?

atomic forge
obsidian patio
#

Spam CLL

open coral
#

Yeah

obsidian patio
#

DR doesn’t drop the bozjan augments or bozjan coins

little swift
#

All the logs shown are not all the clears shown

obsidian patio
#

DR has its own set of augments/coins

patent citrus

then plan is to get augmented law order gear

means I need to do DR savage as well? 🤔

Yes

For the Law order augments

for Orderly Runner's Secrets

how much bozjan coin per CLL run again? 🤔

you get 50 at the end

plus however many you got from the chests

they said from CLL

can you run leveling again for more storm seals?>

#

or only once daily

twilit arch
#

if you are the role in need, sure

#

just keep in mind though, that the exp from role in need doesn't really make up for lack of daily xp bonus

so if you're trying to double dip on that, its going to be a bit meh.

jagged crow

I am trying to help a friend get gc seals for his promotions

that's what we are after

scarlet arrow

for the time when you need seals and can't turn gear in yet it's servicable

twilit arch

make sure he's doing his grand company hunting log

If he's finished all three ranks of the hunting log, then he should be high enough for expert delivery

There's a lot of hats with a similar silhouette

glossy flare

Gotta be more specific I'm afraid 😅

Hmm, something most similar to the one Vivi wore?

slate arrow

Almost every black mage artifact armor has the Big Fuckin Hat

Yeah, this ^

Big pointy hats are their thing

I suppose the level 50 artifact gear would probably be the closest?

I thought so too, but when I search for most loved Miqo'te black mage outfits, all I get is skin

Yeah, you'll probably find whatever you are trying to

leaden ginkgo
atomic forge

Is there a lore reason for the one (or many) hats with the eye patch/covering?

Because cool guys dont look at explosions

Ask the Dark Knights why their armours are so pointy

leaden ginkgo

That's metal as fuck

cause of the edge 👀

Basically they are hiding their great power

How do I get past the Steps of Faith? I assume it's not spoilery but if it is, don't say. I'm at a point where the MSQ is || Guardian of Eorzea just after beating Ramuh || But I wanted to play some Triple Triad and collect cards. Though I am missing a lot of areas.

I thought some areas were side areas you unlock with sidequests, but apaprently not .)

is it normal for me to keep paying gil to teleport around the world? i'm almost broke because of it

lethal mist
#

Thank you

atomic forge
#

"Do more story" has been the answer to so many of my noob questions. I can attest.

west spruce
#

yes

faint flare
#

There's nothing else for you to spend gil on

open coral
nova umbra
#

so can all of my desynthesize levels be maxed out, or is there still some kind of weird cap?

little swift
atomic forge
#

Also, Beerye, beware the Reborn slog. Apparently it's killed many a new player.

thin berry
#

@faint flare ah ok. thanks! if i keep following my msq, will i always have enough gil?

atomic forge
#

The game - apparently - gets much less tedious after Reborn.

faint flare
nova umbra
#

i remember there was some weird restriction on the desynth levels, were they removed?

faint flare
#

Yes

scarlet arrow
#

there is actually very little you need to spend gil on

open coral
#

If you only spend your gil on repairs and travel while leveling, you'll have over 1M gil by the time you get to the end of HW.

thin berry
#

ok ty

open coral
#

And something like 3M by the time you hit the end of Shadowbringers.

lethal mist
#

I've always travelled with teleportation and I sometimes remember to get my gear fixed, and I got 511,550 gil. I don't buy anything tho. Not sure if I should or not but I've been doing OK with the gear I got through quests.

#

Not sure what else gil is good for

remote lintel
#

you dont need to spend gil on anything but teleporting

faint flare
#

Gil is the lazy man way to get stuff

open coral
#

Gil is mostly useful for the player economy.

faint flare
#

And housing

open coral
#

And housing

mystic lily
#

The housing endgame is real in ff14

open coral
#

Otherwise yeah, there's not that much to spend it on.

scarlet arrow
#

housing and glamour

lethal mist
#

I would love to get into getting a house. I assume I could store things there too? N oidea how that system works tho

open coral
#

Quest/dungeon/tomestone gear is more than sufficient for leveling.

mystic lily
#

Can't store things in houses per se

faint flare
#

Only furniture

mystic lily
#

That's your retainers job

#

Your retainers are your mobile banks

open coral
#

Housing is basically just a personal space you can decorate. You can store housing items/furnishings in the storehouse if you have housing, but otherwise no.

mystic lily
#

As well as merchants

lethal mist
#

I've yet to get into retainers and stuff.

open coral
#

You should have access to retainers by now unless you're on free trial.

faint flare
#

They're banks are bare minimum

scarlet arrow
#

housing can also make money if you know how to use garden plots effectively

mystic lily
#

Yup, you also have the chocobo saddlebag

lethal mist
#

I would love to but I've been doing MSQ, Triple Triad and some random side questing. Oh and Gold Saucer stuff.

mystic lily
#

That acts as a secondary bank

lethal mist
#

Oh right the Chocobo!

scarlet arrow
#

don't worry, there's a lot of stuff in this game and you don't need to do everything at once 🙂

mystic lily
#

Yep!

what's universal tank armor that has cape beside eureka armor? 🤔

not counting augmented law order fending mail

So i think i finished the first expansion? lvl 57 now, finished all lvl 50 MSQ but now after all this i get like super filler quests in MSQ, like all of them lvl 50, all of them escort, talk, back and forth.... what is this? i was told only the start would be literally braindead

faint flare

Thats still ARR

remote lintel

thats post ARR

i would pick up another class at 50

is this the 100 quest grind i ve been reading

man why they do this

remote lintel

So people have content to do

For 2 years

upbeat gulch
#

so u suggest getting another class so i can lvl it up as i do msq?

faint flare
#

While waiting for the expansion

remote lintel
#

yes because at 57 youll be overleveled for HW

#

if you bought the dlc then you can pick up red mage or samurai which both start at lvl 50

heavy wadi

I mean, it's hard to avoid being overleveled with the road to 70 buff

upbeat gulch
#

But how that works in terms of fighting mobs and intances?

remote lintel
#

wym

upbeat gulch
#

i dont have any gear and i am doing lvl 50 quests

i mean samurai gear

faint flare

You get given basic gear

do you need the dragonsung tool while crafting oddly specific skysteel tools for it to count

You'll need some accessories

#

Is the Black Mage mechanic similar to Arcane Mage in that you blow all your mana and then go into a conserve phase where you get it all back

#

then repeat?

little swift
#

that is sorta of a simplified way of putting how black mage plays yes

#

the blow all your mana phase would be the phase where you jam as many fire spells in as you can

#

and then you swap to the ice phase and use that phase to regenerate mana, throw out filler spells, refresh your dot, etc.

fresh lodge
#

Arcane would be the closest comparison

I believe there's even a capstone spell to the Fire rotation that's literally "Dump all mana", iirc. Haven't played Black Mage in forever.

MiqoteDepressed thanks anyway

dim ridge
#

so for trove I figured maybe I run prae n castrum for exp. but do they only give the Hella Exp once a day? or can you keep running msq roulette for okay exp?

faint flare
#

Once a day for good xp

slate arrow
#

once a day

#

All Roulettes and daily challenges are once a daily reset

dim ridge
#

after the one time, how much exp do they give tho?

faint flare
#

Barely any

dim ridge

hi! for the mogmog collection event, can you earn those event tomestones from squadron?

hollow violet
#

It looks like I have to complete the Labrynth of the Ancients raid to continue MSQ. Is this something that's easy enough to do with Duty finder or do I need to pause and look for a regular group?

faint flare
#

Duty finder

wintry chasm
#

^ casual content

faint flare
#

24mans are very casual content

#

Especially crystal tower, face roll as hell

heavy wadi
#

especially now

faint flare
#

Dony touch bad and follow the group

hollow violet
#

do I need to watch a guide before going in or just Yolo is it okay?

wintry chasm
#

Casual content so just go in

heavy wadi
#

you can probably yolo tbh

hollow violet
#

awesome, thanks

wintry chasm
#

Just pay attention to what people do/say

#

and follow your party

faint flare
heavy wadi
#

the mechanics are super simple because it was the first alliance raid

#

should be well telegraphed etc

#

and if not ppl will explain

#

just keep an eye on what other ppl are doing, where they're standing etc

hollow violet
#

roger that. I'll eat some dinner and dive in 🙂

#

Do we know Droprates for DR? I'm on 17 Runs and haven't seen the Mount or Hair so I am curious

faint flare
#

Low enough to make you cry

hoary kayak
#

abysmal

heavy wadi
#

it's truly atrociously low

faint flare
#

If it aint 0 or 100% then prepare to cry

heavy wadi
#

you'd probably have better luck farming the gil to buy it lol

jaunty gorge
#

I have to do 8 more Runs anyway

Question: For the event going on...the dungeons that provide intinerant moogle rewards, can those be obtained if i'm running roulettes?

heavy wadi
#

I think so?

twilit arch
#

Yes you will get moogle tomestone from the dungeon if you get it in the roulette

vivid relic
#

Hello everyone, if im using a glamour plate, will my "look" disappear if i enter a dungeon/raid?

remote lintel
#

no

vivid relic
#

oh? then why does it say something about big cities and such

heavy wadi
#

you can only swap them in big cities

vivid relic
#

is it referring to the ability to change plates?

crystal bluff
#

yes

vivid relic
#

oo gotcha

remote lintel
#

you can only apply plates in cities

heavy wadi
#

can't swap in instances or zones with enemies etc

vivid relic
#

one more thing, if i cast a glamour (without the dresser), the glamour would only work for the set gear piece that i casted it to?

#

let me change the question, whats the difference between using glamours with and without the dresser

crystal bluff
#

nothing, really

remote lintel
#

applying glamour directly from your inventory uses up 1 prism each time

#

for each item

heavy wadi
#

it doesn't take up space in your inventory

crystal bluff
#

plates just let you change a bunch without using prisms

remote lintel
#

and you cant mass apply glamour like with a plate

vivid relic
#

thank you all so much!

midnight halo
#

where should i post my application/cv when im looking for a serious fc to raid with on light/odin?

vivid relic
#

its much appreciated

remote lintel
#

recruitment channel

#

most statics arent in one fc though

polar hound
#

will note that not many FCs raid together ^

midnight halo
#

ok so its for applicants too? and u can raid with the entirety of the light shard regardless of server right?

remote lintel
#

yes and yes

midnight halo
#

splendid appreciate the quick reply

polar hound
#

yep.. you'll look for a static for raiding

#

FCs are mainly a social construct

Got something off mog station, I've logged into the game and its not in my moogle delivery service, am I missing something?

twilit arch
#

sometimes it can take a while for items to be delivered. can hit the button to "request delivery" to try and speed it up

#

but ultimately just have to be patient

heavy wadi
#

I usually get mog station stuff within the hour

how does IE help me here?

I bought the game a long time ago like 2 years ago or so

Oof

open coral
heavy wadi
#

The launcher itself runs on IE

open coral
#

If you have the base game, then definitely check your IE version.

heavy wadi
#

if IE isn't updated it'll have issues downloading stuff

#

it's, strange and archaic but true

fervent timber
#

but some how its been hours trying to figure shit out yet again

#

so do I download the client from the website using IE (also doesnt say anything about updating IE where it says so I guess its good?)

open coral
gritty oracle
#

Is there a command to display the list of the most important weeklies?

open coral
#

Then you should be able to download the game.

fervent timber
#

ok so I guess its up to date then sicne nothing changed so what now

trying to play on free trial

remote lintel
#

did you download the free trial version on steam

silent island
#

yes

#

i downloaded the demo

gritty oracle
# silent island

Have you owned the game before? Also it tends to act weird if you have a really old trial account bc iirc waaaaaaaaaaaaay back trial used to be time-based and not level-based

silent island
#

i never owned it before

#

i couldnt use my previous account

#

so i changed its email so i could use it on my new account

remote lintel
#

that doesnt look like the free trial version

silent island
#
