whattttt
oh
i guess i just need to download the game on windows then
and uninstall on steam?
Does anyone know if I will still get the moogle tomes if I get Praetorium in MSQ roulette?
Yes
I got 10 yst from msq
I think it also apply to other DR as long as those dungeons in the list
Main GSM weapons are BLM/RDM/AST and sometimes WHM
CRP does Dragoon and Bard, and a bit of White Mage
ALC does SMN/SCH
Ah, so you can only desynth the weapons you could also craft? Ok that makes sense
ty!
As free trial players, do we all need to be online if we were to ask a subber friend to add us into a links shell?
Yes
When in the character screen there is a number on my character what does that represent?
item level
Your average item level
All my asscersories are still so low level
Do you get higher “jewelry” later on in the msq?
Yes
Or is that endgame ?
After 50
There's not many low level
you can purchase from vendors as well... but it just a waste of gil since your level will surpass that in no time.
am I gonna have to remember to re-pay my subscription or are they just gonna charge me
whats your payment method
Depends if you set up auto renew
^
crysta cant be set up for auto renew cuz you gotta buy crysta then it charges that, otherwise if you buy bulk crysa for several months, yea it auto renews
steam wallet/credit card can
random question.... is there any way to find HQ market prices for kupo bot?
not that know of if you mean by entering a command
you can just use universalis though, cause thats where it gets the data from
sorts by nq and hq
ohh okay ty!!
Anyone know where I can get the onions to level up my chocobo?
So if Fiera can't wear lots of hats, what if the BIS hat is unwearable? Is that a possibility?
just doesnt show up on the models
They can wear them
There's a few quests that give them, but for the most part you can grow them or buy them from the market board
How do you grow them?
in a garden
owning a house is required however
If I already have great gear (well-melded aesthete) and am pretty much swimming in chicken thighs, what else can I dump white crafter's scrips on?
I have enough mats to last me until next expansion, and I can't be bothered to sell on the MB
hmm
I do have a bunch of allegories I need to dump too
I could make a ranged set
could try checking materia prices

Is there a way to view the amount of moogle tomes I have without having to visit itinerary moogle to view how many tomes I have? I can't seem to find it through currency menu
Inventory
It's in your inventory
okie dokie I see it now - thanks!
How far do I need to go to unlock MSQs? It says I need to complete some of the Crystal Tower sidequests. I've just finished the raid itself and msq is still locked up
Did you do up to "A Light of Hope"
You need to complete the entire raid questline
Ah okay. So back the side quests that unlocked after finishing the raid
if it's still locked
side quests that unlocked after finishing the raid
It sounds like you only did the first fight
24-man raids are split into 3 instanced duties
ooh I didn't realize that. This one ended fighting Phlegarthon (sp?)
thanks, I'll keep on truckin then ^_^
Its a good plot line for the story as well
I finished it before I hit the MSQ requirement
But I'm just wondering how does that story affect the MSQ
There wasn't a link as far as I realize
Are Stormblood EX's still considered High End Trials for Desynth sake? I can desynth other items with higher ilvl but the option for the weapons is still greyed out for me. (I did make sure to match the weapon with the job)
Oof
where do you get dps stance as a blue mage?
Aetherical Mimicry
but there is
From pharos sirus hard
There is always a reason something ends up being mandatory
For blue stances
I finished the entirety of ARR ytd though but I didn't draw any link
even if it's like, not entirely obvious like needing to do the hard mode trial fights in ARR patches
How do I put up spoiler tags on mobile
| test |
||it's not an ARR link that's why||
two both sides
|| test ||
Ah I see
I thought it was to free up || so he could rescue us ||
It's just ||mandatory there because it's ARR content and it's a good place to make you do it||
Got it
I'm very tempted to switch to DRG for HW since I was told I'm gonna be called something else other than WoL
It's like, a single dialogue change
I would not sweat it for the dialogue, do it if you absolutely want the thematic coolness
Still cool though. I picked up PLD because the WoL was a PLD in the EW trailer haha
I guess I'll do it in the inn in the future. Have no plans to play dragoon yet
might as well reroll dps class
Hey guys. Im new to FFXIV. Id like to play a healer (astrologian) do i need to pick my starting class as conjurer or how does it work in this game? I have only 1 offensive skill atm and its really slow. Can i start as other class and then pick up astrologian job. I have no idea how it works here

You can be any job and pick up astro
you just have to hit heavensward story really
whatever you play as till then is irrelevant
so i guess picking conjurer as starting class was a bad idea
Starting as a healer before then though would help learn how to heal and give you some nice leveling gear for when you pick up astro though
i should have picked up some dps class
Eh
Healers never have a lot of damage skills really
yeah but i had no idea i can change class later
What level are you now?
oh well I guess you could change now to something else if you want, it wouldn't be TOO much effort to level back up
any particular class you recommend?
does anyone know how i can fix this? after i click play, nothing happens...it's like i've closed the game
You could start summoner, you'll be leveling a dps and a healer at the same time (the class is shared)
Hey, I started an archer but don't really if I want to continue this job, I'm lvl 16 right now. When should I change ideally ?
sound boring to change jobs when you are a newcomer
u can change whenever u want
yeah but hard to exp no ?
You can change after you complete your first level 10 class quest.
yeah I can but since I don't have story quest it's pretty slow
You have to start from level 1 again, yes. But catching up is quick at low levels.
If it's only to catch up til level 16, that shouldn't take too long
Is Vengeance affected by Inner Release?
also when I kill a mob there is a +% exp what did it make change ?
Hey, if my friend stays outside of the boss arena in a trial as a blue mage, can they still learn the abilities?
Yes
There are several xp bonuses, if you're on a new class, it's likely the armoury bonus.
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
There are a lot of xp modifier (chaining monsters, being "rested", Free Company bonuses, secondary job bonus, etc..) there's probably a resource that explains them if someone knows
(edit: there it is)
ok thanks !
*eating as well ! Never sleep on that sweet 3%
does jackpot II work with the fashion report?
also what job did you recommend for melee dps just to reach lvl 50 and unlock samurai ?
Question, I have a lvl 30 glad and conj, when can i turn them into pal and whm?
or even magic
!faq jon
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
Ah, thanks!
Is it Snapshotted or once Inner Release runs out it goes back to normal?
does jackpot II (the mgp bonus) work with the fashion report?
Ah makes sense, cheers
I've only leveled DRG and SAM as melee dps, i did like them both, DRG is flashy, pretty cool
I see summoner is from lvl 30. Starting class i see either Thaumaturge or Arcanist
IIRC no
Arcanist (sorry i got them mixed up) !
Thaumaturge is for black mage
Which is the coolest job imo 😎
I'd say the important thing is go with one that you find likable/interesting
If you don't like it, just change and start another one, there's no hurry anyway
So I logged on for the first time forever. Bought the complete edition that was supposed to come with a free month but it only says 4 days remaining
and evolved job like summoner you restart lvl 1 or start lvl 30 ?
You can have nice surprises as well . I started RDM recently thinking it's gonna be meh, and i'l actually loving it
Jobs are just advancements of the class
Nah it continues from 30 onwards, just the name changes, and you unlock new skills on top of the base ones
You used up the free time and are using the returner campaign time bow
Base game Jobs use the class they’re from for experience
It’s why Summoner and Scholar share levels, as they both use “Arcanist Experience”
oh ok thanks
and you recommend to buy the game once lvl 60 or even before is better ?
I don't think there's any advantages to buying the full game early. I'd say enjoy the free trial while it lasts
Unless you REALLY want viera/Hrothgar and/or Red mage, samurai, dancer or Gunbreaker there's no reason to buy early
Or if you get annoyed at the trial limitations
I want samurai but it's lvl 50
So wait until you've reached level 50, then you can buy it to unlock SAM
yup
and housing is pretty hard to access I think
need few months of gils making before be able to buy parcel ?
You can easily buy an apartment for 500K,but houses are another story
to buy a house plot?
Whats best tanking job?
all
The one piloted better
Played better
Hmm
Tank balance is extremely tight
yup
Unless you're a hyper nerd with glasses, spreadsheets and everything you wouldn't notice the difference between the tanks
it's the true end game I think x)
Well ive been a mage class in video games my entire life however something has awaken in me where i wanna tank for once and the the one leading a team
Just pick whatever looks cool and ride with it
anyway thanks for all your reply
Balancing is so close as to not matter. Pick what looks nice.
Where and how do I join a FC??
Hey, so, I love Garland Tools to keep track of crafting mats, but I hate that it doesn't give me the option to switch from buying mats to crafting them.
Example: How many cotton boils do I need to gather in order to make X cotton cloth and Y cotton yarn?
Is there a site that can give me that?
teamcraft is an alternative option
like this?
you need to check the craft with wvr on cotton yarn, it'll change the cotton yarns in crafting list to be crafted instead of bought
Oooooooooooo thank you!
does anyone have an idea when the primal server loses queue speed for PvP?

do roulettes get the event currency if you get into the corresponding dungeon? e.g. msq roulettes
yes
🆗
is it normal that i cant fly at abalathia's spine? ffs
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Black Chocobo mount you are also given an Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
My Friend and I are both in a Trial version we wanted to try this game but its not fun If we play it alone.. We can't create a group would you mind to put us two in a group and leave then ?
Im in EU btw
Ask in limsa
Limsa ?
Just keep in mind that there are a lot of solo instances early in the game, so you'll have to disband your party and have someone invite you back every time.
Yes limsa
Limsa Lominsa - one of the three starting cities.
You may not have started there/may not have reached there in the MSQ yet, depending on how new you are.
Thank you ima try it
can you pvp at level 20, or would you need 30 for the soul stone?
30
was thinking about leveling my tank in PvP
Jobs only
eitherway I can prob just queue and get it to 30 real quick
did they nerf the rates since stormblood release?
exp ones
No, still decent daily exp
oh yeah was gonna ask
is rival wings active in NA? for Primal?
I was on EU, and we had to pretty much organize the runs
it is now
Pvp in general isn't active until events like moogle tomes come
Does anyone know a good way for a DPS to level from 47-50? I'm fairly new to the game so I'm not sure what's an effective leveling guide
rival wings is probably the closest thing to Fantasy Earth Zero we'll get in FFXIV
What are Dzaemal and Aurum Vale?
shame yoshida hasn't tried to cross over
How do I get access to that dungeon? I can't find it
Dzaemal unlocks in Coerthas, aurum vale at vesper bay
Thank you
can also pick up their unlocks at your grand company hq
depending on what rank you are
Alright, thank you
Are skybuilder scrips perma farmable? Dunno shi about crafting/restoration.
yes
yes its permanent
Cools
youre automatically put in a team
yes
oh ok
freelancer is on by default, no way to toggle it anymore
weird question if i enter PoTD on conjurer...is it possible to go in on whm, or do i have to restart
if i recall, you can only continue the progress as conj
but i might be wrong, it's been a while i been there
hmmm im only on floor 20 so i guess i can restart when i hit 30 if i can't reenter
you'd have to restart, ye
51, after beating 50, yes
ic
ye you hit a check point when you clear floor 50
that lets you start at floor 51-60
which is what most people will be running anyway
i guess i'll take the stone out to get to 50 lol, thx
im probably just dumb but is there a gimmick to killing a sewer syrup, i do very little dmg to it
for msq?
yup
are you supposed to use a key item on it
oh O:
i don't have a key item for it
the msq is saying to examine the door and the slime is camping it
that's an A rank
er
B rank sorry
so just...ignore him
it shouldn't attack you unless you attack it
hii.. is there a quicker way to level BLU?

Rinse repeat for a few hours to 80
I see, alright thanks :3
Do I have to do anything to start treasure trove event? I see the moogle, but I see no tomestone rewards on any duties
If there’s a moogle next to a duty in DF, you’ll get tomestones
I think the lowest level duty that awards them is level 44, so if you're below that, you won't see them
30 if we wanna be technical, since you can do pvp once you've gotten your job stone
PvP gives them out so technically it starts at 30
Ah right, I always forget pvp exists
Can you earn irregulars from a duty more than once?
yes
The grind begins thx
You can farm any instance as much as you like
The only restriction is that it cannot be done unsynced
Thx
does the main scenario daily roulette give moogle tokens?
Yes amount is determined by the dungeon you get
castrum 7 and prae 10 right?
does anyone have like a guild or something i can join I just started playing this game
Pick your data center role in #612757637813239808 and then check the recruitment channels. If you're on free trial you can't join one though
@cobalt ocean
do you get moogle tokens if you get the dungeon in a roulette?
yes
How much dps should a summoner be able to do to be good enough for savage?
What do you have to do to learn ley lines? My BLM is level 54 and the quest tracker in the upper left doesn't have a job quest listed there. The Character-Actions tab says I should have learned it at level 52
are you in HW yet?
nope. I take it that's the answer 🙂
yup, the skill quest is in HW so you gotta reach HW to get the quest. np
I hope I'm close. I finished all three segments of the first raid and am doing a quest now that sends me to Ul'dah for a banquet
you're very close to the start of HW
the banquet sets up the "prologue" of HW basically
Do the new jobs unlock at the beginning or later on? I'm really interested in trying out astrologian
relatively beginning
as soon as you reach the ishgardian city
you can unlock it because the trainer are there
Got it. Thanks much!
Looking at the 50th percentile for FFLOGS, you want to be around 20-22k depending on the fight
Any reason why 7 people in full exarch gear outside the chest which is cryptlurker be chilling out in lakeland? All but one are a wanderer and they're just kind of standing not moving lol
For 25th percentile it’s 19-20k
sounds like treasure map or hunt
theyre just vibing
oh that's a good idea, looking at fflogs
probably hunt if wanderer
thanks @obsidian patio
either that or one of them is a streamer and getting chased by their fans
forgot what the best thing to run via time for moogle hunt
besides vale
hey fair enough was just very bizarre to come across lol especially with the exact same gear
PVP in general besides feast
@obsidian patio was that an option last time?
Pretty sure yeah
pvp is always an option for moogle stuff
anyone know how long it takes to queue for the duty urth's fount? trying to do the main quest but ive been stuck here its been 70 mins and still cant get a party
urth's fount isn't part of the msq
urth's font is not part of any roulette as well
its part of mentor roulette
oh derp mentor roulette
oh no
but its effectively an extreme trial, so people aren't going to normally queue for it
ahh
can skip it and do it later if you want
ok thank you
I'm not sure what is going on but I'm experiencing really bad lags/delays in raids/trials or even loading game areas. Is there a way to see if it is a hardware or router issue?
I didn't have any problems at all up until the last three days
I've rebooted my computer and logged in/restarted the game as well to see if it fixed the lag but it didn't

Can you buy Fantasia with steam wallet?
If you have a steam FFXIV account
Or just anything in general
you can pay subs with steam wallet
it should be an option
idk about fantasia but it should be possible
on the payment page
if you can buy it with steam wallet then you should be able to gift with steam wallet
i'm just wondering if i can gift myself stuff? i have a decent amount of money on steam and i didnt realise you can use steam wallet when i got the game
ya
im on the non steam ver
you can claim it
okay thanks guys ill check it out
do you just get a code or?
how can i make a steam ffxiv account?
it's like the first tab on the left
can i do it without downloading the game off steam or
the account you're playing can only be associated with Steam for it to let you
purchase with Steam wallet
so I don't think you can convert a non Steam
you can login the launcher through Steam, but that doesn't do much except track your ingame hours
well my main account is non steam, thats fine - but i was wondering if i set up another one ON steam if I can gift my other profile some stuff
so to make a steam version i just download the steam client version of ffxiv?
I think you may be able to register without downloading it, but
yeah thats what im wondering
i dont mind downloading it but it would save the trouble
they give you like a cd key through steam
does bozja need to be played with a party? it is awfully hard
you can probably register for a new account through the mogstore/square enix
so chances are you can do it with saving bandwidth
since all of this is done through websites
when you login through the mog store
you just sign into your Steam account
to pay through Steam
like any third party login
for Steam
alright nice ill see if i can do it
as far as I can remember, I have like three accounts and my newest one was Steam

this steam wallet is just lying here doing nothing, i wanna use it on this game if i can
ya I can totally see why you'd sell a csgo skin or something if it's gonna go to waste
but the gift codes should work for PC atleast, not sure how it works for consoles
im PC, should be alright
do command missions reward the event tomestones?
but in general steam can gift to mog station users yeah
well ya since when you have a Steam CD key it gives you a hidden payment option of signing through a Steam client
I think, you can legit family share your game
and pay with a seperate account wallet even
just something to consider
if my friend gets the starter edition of the game and uses my recruitment code will i instantly get the 5 golden chocobo feathers?
because whenever I pay, I pay with another Steam account not associated with my original CD key
it kinda just takes it
yea my friend did the promo to me and it worked like that
I got a ton of free white and black dyes on my new character
1 feather = 5 dyes
good luck!
if i transfer grand companies, do i still have my squadron, what about my rank and my grand company seals?
does not carry over
might just get 5 chocobo from my friend joining the game and then buy the starter edition twice
unless they changed
to get the other 10
you're basically blank on GC swap
but you might get it back when you return
not a bad idea, just to mention you can get some two seaters ingame I think.
i just like how the dragon mount looks XD
Is there a cap limit for moogle tomes like poetics? If so, what is the cap limit?
gotcha
where do you go to do the increase bozja holster space thing?
Its a quest in gangos
no cap, you gotta just do it all sync'd
you can actually grind your hearts out with this event
Got it - and i know all has to be sync'd 👍
do you know which quest by any chance
Its down south side, just random blue quest on its own
ah found it thanks!
I made a mistake and bought Black-feathered Flat Hat from the store and I just realized it's for male only
Would they swap it for the female version if I open a ticket?
Your squadron follows you to whichever GC you transfer to. However, if you’re starting fresh in the new GC, you’ll have to get back up to Second Lieutenant to access your barracks again.
is there a way to increase the number of fates spawning in bozja?
Do you have to buy ARR to gift people or anything like that?
is the firework item "Job Mastery" different depend on your job?
no
What does Aetherial Mimicry DPS do?
increases your crit + increases damage done, iirc?
no, just crit and direct hit by 20%
Ty
guys
whats a good way to farm eseterics?
as of now i was thinking farming praetorium but like its an hour each
pvp
Aurum Vale apparently
do i just sell allagan platinum piece to any vendor?
yes
kk thx
aurum vale?
ohh the DG
@remote lintel how do i farm it thruy pvp it doesn't show in any oif my pvp thing it gives me any
i dont have that unlock yet..
ok ty
I left a raid right as it said it was ready. My friend said he would join and the queue time was 2 minutes when it's normally close to 10.
What kind of penalty was it talking about?
if you withdraw when the queue is ready 3 times then you cant queue for 30 mins
How did you get your squadron started? I tried mine and it said I needed a 4th member and to check the recruiting papers. Checked them and it said no recruits
Ok. I certainly don't plan on it being a habit. I was just in the middle of texting when it queued up so soon
theres some achievments or from challenge logs, I did the gold saucer ones
where should I hire retainer?
Its rng whenever you complete a challenge log a recruit shows up
Anywhere doesn't matter
I'm kinda liking the ARR credits song - is that available in game on the music roll thingies?
And thanks for the answer re squads
first half, the somber bit
its called answers

is there a cap on wolf marks that you can hold
20k iirc
ok thanks
It would help if you actually asked your question
do you get exp from rival wings
I'm trying to figure out if I can assign hotkeys to a shared hotbar (like Shift + 1, etc) and if so how to do it
queue in as the job you want exp on, swap to the job you want to play
Rarefied Lemonade redeems for white scrips, right?
thanks channy
yes
the keybinds section
ty
Is it possible to get tank/healer mimicry without targeting a player before entering duty

Why does my chocobo turn into every color except black
I'm following that color converter guide but it just doesn't turn soot black
how do i transfer my character to another data center?
home world transfer service
if you want to visit other DCs, thats next expansion-ish
This is going to come off as begging
But
Any weavers here that are level 80?. There’s this summer indigo shirt I want that’s being sold at 800k in the market
Which is ridiculous
800k is pretty normal
This channel is for help. So could someone help me get it for less?
it was 3 to 4 mil when it first appeared onthe market
step 1: run treasure maps
step 2: run treasure maps more until you get all the indigo cloth you need
step 3: ask a crafter to make it for you
Jump into other dcs and check if it's cheaper
The reason a lot of the level 1 glams are and will remain expensive is due to them being treasure map dungeon drops
what are aether currents for?
attuning all the currents in a map will unlock flying in that map
Which other server should I look for?
all the servers on your dc
Okay
so lich, odin etc
@whole wasp but before i could solo unlock without compass and get flying and didnt have these green things, im confused
Odin is 800k
ARR is the exception
ARR grants you flying once you finish The Ultimate Weapon
749k on much
all zones from HW onwards all need the aether current
we can't do anything about MB listings here
And buying the raw materials will be just as expensive or more
You either bite the bullet and buy, or you start running Treasure Maps xP
The help in this channel name, afaict, means "help, I don't understand this" or "help, what can I do to improve ABC"
items you can gather (with a gathering job) once every 18 hours or off the marketboard. You open, decipher, and then find the location on the map so you can use the Dig action, which results in you finding a treasure box. You then can open the box after killing the mobs which spawn, afterwards you get loot, and a chance at a treasure map portal, which leads to a dungeon instance
@slate arrow what is ARR ? is ultimate weapon from story qeust?
So for all of this to happen I need to level up a gathering job
within the dungeon instance, you fight some mobs that drop loot and a chance to fight another pack of mobs that also drop loot.
you can buy maps from marketboard
ARR is the base game story, 1-50
Do you need to have on gathering gear when you go do those or can you be a combat job
You can buy maps from other players
Doing the treasure hunting itself needs combat jobs
No, you can buy Treasure Maps off the marketboard as well. for Indigo Cloth, you want Zonureskin maps
i did complete it
These maps are costly?
I could fly but then i came to cortheas and couldnt :/
Not really
@covert berry Heavensward onward, you need to unlock Flying region by region
That's why you have flying in the ARR zones. Cortheas is Heavensward, and you need to collect the aether currents there to be able to fly. Every Expansion zone has their own set of currents.
you completed ARR so you can fly in ARR zones. you have not attuned to HW aether currents so you cant fly in HW zones
aether currents are needed now? they were a thing till now lol
It's a reward for exploring the expansion zones
Coerthas Central Highlands is an ARR zone so you can fly there, but Coerthas Western Highlands are a HW zone so you need the Aether Currents
You can’t fly in coerthas until you do the story quests there and side quests that give aether currents and also the aether currents in the world using your compass
why am i not authorized to do hunts?
you need to be a certain GC rank to unlock hunts
Rank up your grand company and do the hunt quest unlock at your GC headquarters
On Aether they're like, 20k to 50k depending on the day.
if i ask for a promotion, it says i need to do hunt quests
Ultimate weapon is from Ultimate Raids which are some of the most difficult content in the game.
iirc all of the
and
in a zone will take you by an Aether Current except for like, one or two in some zone I forgot the name of
Wrong Ultimate Weapon
I'm talking the MSQ quest The Ultimate Weapon
Correction: The Ultima Weapon
Will I definitely get something worth while doing the treasure hunt?
nah, they changed it so all quests with aether currents are 
yes if you want to fly in the zone
Lots of crafting materials, also other rare drops for glams
I meant the ten open-world ones
If I want to start a crafting job, what is best . I like to look slick in woollen clothes
ah okay that makes sense
The
and
in most zones will take you by each of the open world currents
All of them, quite honestly.
Hmm
There's like, one or two zones I think where it doesn't do this for a couple currents and you'll have to bust out the compass to find them
If you don't want to spend even more gil on precraft materials.
Does anyone knows if taking the main story roulette gives out irregular tomestones of esoterics?
What the hell are irregular tomestones of esoterics
Moogle tomestones
Yeah, just want to make sure I can get the roulette bonus as well as the tomestones
drops for the latest event
What are these riding maps for locations available
increased ground movement speed
generally not worth using the moogle tomestones on since it doesn't affect flying
Okay
I followed a guide my chocobo turned midnight blue instead of soot black
Will it turn black over time
Cos someone told me his chocobo went through various colors before it became white
soot black and snow white are definitely the harder chocobo colours to hit
so yeah, it can take a couple of tries before you land on it
So do I feed it more or wait
Did you wait the full time like the calculator said?
may as well feed again, no reason to wait since you've got your current result which was midnight blue
if you've waited the full 6 hrs, and didn't hit the colour you want just feed again
looking at the calculator, its suggesting 4x pineapples. i would recommend stop feeding if you get the colour change message before you use all 4
its very easy to overshoot soot black/snow white when you're really close to it
Oh it's currant purple
which is why i say to stop feeding if you get the message before you feed all 4
Midnight blue was prior to this
ok well then that changes the suggested feeding
for this i would say go ahead and all of the recommended feed
but if you're at a colour like midnight blue, which is really on the nose so to speak
Rn it's currant purple
you may not need to feed all that's recommended. if it says 4, then you may only need 1 or 2 because each feed doesn't give the same +/-
I'll just follow the guide don't wanna mess it up since I'm wasting gils on this

Choco feed can be grown in flowerpots iirc, so even trial players can grow their own. The seeds don't cost a lot if you're into hunts or blue mage.
Also, prepare for some trial and error. I tried to dye mine soot black, got nophica green, nophica green again, some shade of blue, ceruleum blue, then I gave up and decided that ceruleum blue looks cute.
trial cant
Oh right can't own house
My chocobo turned into 4 different colors
I just want soot black man :/
pretty much soot black and snow white are the "expect to spend a lot of gold to get" or make use of flower pots/garden to grow your own feed
because like i said, its really easy to overshoot them
Ya I don't have a house
apartments cost 500k
Which apartment
Each housing ward, and subdivision, has an apartment building
its just a small room
I can decorate?
ye
I managed 5 mil
5 mil more and I'll get a house instead
What's the price of a medium house
Small house it is then
what is the pot windows for 9s-11s? excluding the opener
rival wings
5 u win 3 u lose
How is that even good
its sub 5 minute runs
without blu mages, I had a pretty good amdapor keep run with a good party, ~10 mins including one dps death when he fell off during the second boss
let say i get my character up using jump potion and i want to spend a week or two before i join any group activity to learn my class whats the best way to do the current event without ruining other peoples day because im not familiar with my class yet
are you going to skip the story too? you can use trusts in shb
Can you still get tomestones of law, or only esoteric from this event?
@worthy basin most likely
yeah there is a new party system in shb called trusts where you queue with the npcs.
I don't think ShB dungeons give moogle tomestones though
@worthy basin ohh that would be perfect if i get tomestones
yeah you don't get tomestones in shb
you can get the stb jobs at 50
probably the easiest is to just do MSQ roulette
and spam aurum vale or rival wings
it's slower to get the tomes, but you can make mistakes and people won't really care
Only estoterics
Should've leveled up blu :/
darn ty
@elfin edge kk ill prob do that then thxx
you're not going to be able to use skills above lv50 though, so it's not a good way to really learn your class, but probably good enough to get started
I got BLU to 60 today. Will do the rest tomorrow. What are some must have spells for quick dungeon runs like Aurum Vale? I already have Ultravibration
@elfin edge yeah most importantly for me is that i just dont want to ruin other peoples day like how other people in wow did to me when they came out with boosts but i do really want to do the event
you have a month till it ends
Ram's Voice, Ultra vib, Missile(for AV at least), whatever primal spell you can get(for last boss in AV), Final Sting+Whistle+Moon Flute combo @copper marsh
oh and Aetherial Mimicry too
oh right might as well get Tingle+Triple if you have someone who can kill the mobs for you
^
@silver ruin do you think 50 tomes in a week is doable?
ohhhhh okay then i ll just take my time then lol
you could do praetorium once a day for 5days and get that I think
^
and if you don't like that, really anything else you just have to check how many tomes you get and how much you can do in a day, it's really not bad
ill go check it out im looking to atleast get the blissful kamuy and the horns
get the falcon mount too
since that is a timed event mount
@worthy basin ill grab that to then haha
Thanks. Doing stuff synced now guarantees learning spells right?
yes
Oh damn I haven’t done a single hildibrand quest. Any alternatives for missile?
tail screw?
otherwise you could try to get Launcher, it's a budget missile, does random amounts, requires to be close and costs a shit ton of mp(cause it's aoe)
Oh I can do sigmascape too? Np then. Just to be clear, the only way to do anything synced is to form a party through party finder right?
you can do it with friends
you just make an undersized party in the DF settings
but then make sure you have level sync on
as long as you're lvl synced spells are 100%

to be clear, you can't actually DF it, but if you have friends to make a full party(or well don't need to be full, but enough people) you don't have to go through PF, if you want to play with randoms, PF it is
is the most efficient way to use totems to desynth to get shinryu scales to buy only shields?
I have a friend trying to make a new character on Midgardsormr and it's not letting them create a new character and the server is not even congested. How come they are unable to do it?
live server population will prevent making characters, for populated servers you'll want to wait until you're during the night/morning to try to make a character
hmm since it's NA it should be somewhat available by now though
maybe in an hour or two
Woo boy. Someone said that they’ll craft me the indigo shirt for free!!!!!!
From my FC
Are all the non PLD Zantetsuken skins from Eureka?
Thank you!
Hi! Is it true I can only buy a level skip for one class?
Oh, so the things I'm reading about it being limited were removed? Also yeah they are but it's not like I'd be buying them too often, maybe once every other month cause potd is a pain
they were never limited as far asi know
You can buy them all if you want. It was def worth it for me to save time
you just cant buy them on the free trial
Ahh, ty ty!
Yes
Also job/story potions were only limited from like 4.0 to 4.1 IIRC
Hey guys, why is the earring 100tickets from the new Mog Event, is it special in any kind ? (sry new player here )
Its event specific
Doesn't appear anywhere else in the game
This is the second time they've had this earring appear now in these events
@split smelt
So its only for looks ?
yes

I'm in wolves den
just talk to the guy with blue quest
There's no one with a blue quest
Only a yellow !
Wolves' Den Pier (X:5.7 Y:5.4).
check out this position
is there anything like the aetherpool grips but for the armor aetherpool?
actually nvm, just realized it lowers both
So I'm attempting to do the level 70 Red Mage duty with HQ level 60 armor
Wiped on the second set of mobs...
Maybe not gonna work. ~.~
no thats not gonna work lmao
I'm trying to chisel stone with a butter knife...
Well I was able to beat the level 80 tank quest with level 70 HQ armor.
Might just lower the difficulty, only doing this job for the caster quests.
It's saying temporarily unavailable
Only not the 60 set, at least from calamity salvager
do hidden gorge
same thing
they're both rival wings
I c
Just to confirm, AF gear means the job specific gear, yes?
Artifact, the gear you get for the level cap job quests
so how do you reobtain the 60 set if ya lose it?
Oh. but @obsidian patio mentioned not the 60 set?
It's the only one you can turn in for seals iirc
You can't even sell the lv 70 af gear
The level 60 set is bought with centurio seals in Ishgard, which requires unlocking clan hunts
Oh.
Bugger. Hmm... Im just looking at a very full glamour dresser
and just wondering if I could dump my AF gear somewhere
does getting an apartment give you extra storage?
Dump your non 60 af gear if you're not using it
The level 45 af gear can be stored in your armoire
it's all in my Glam dresser XD
Housing itself can only store spare furniture
but if they're repurchasable, I'll dump em
Why do some actions say they can't be assigned to a hotbar when they very clearly can?
Because they likely replace an action
Because other actions become those actions depending on certain conditions
Your initial gcd on drg becomes raiden thrust mid combo
Is broad bean curry bis food for any class currently?
no
Yes

Hello! Does someone know how to level up gatherer/crafter job with Ishgard? Do we have to lvl up gatherer there cause it seems longer than levequests. For craft, which macro should I use? Thanks in advance ❤️
Gathering in Ishgard isnt really that fast tbh it's just convenient
There are sets of armor you can buy in Bozja with the coins that you start getting after you run Castrum LL once
Crafting on the other hand with Ishgard Restoration is much faster
Yep it seems fast
What is the current max number of gearsets?
my main has 37 but my alt only has 36
i googled and found msgs on the official forum talking about having 40 gearsets.
You unlock more with every job you unlock
is there ever a reason to use Freeze instead of Blizzard III? (currently level 40 blm)
Yep
for 48 man group
It’s a large scale instance that can get a ton of people in one area
It’s recommended to disable or limit other players battle effects in places like bozja
how often is this used? the potency is soooo low
Later down the track (lvl 68) it gives an Umbral heart which is important for your AoE rotation later
so i can just remove it from the hotbar?
Yep
BLM changes drastically leveling, your rotation down the line will change a lot, multiple times
I have it on my hotbar without a hotkey to use when synced.. but yeah despite how well designed BLM is at 80 levelling is a janky mess
Have doubts regarding bozjan coins
To augment a piece of bozjan gear we require 999 bozjan coins
CLL drops 100 a pop
100 if you get all the chests
I have every job unlocked on both my main and alt. y is one 37 avail and the other 36?
That’s 10 castrum a for one gear piece
(which I haven't seen a group fail to do since patch)
They also have a random drop chance and can be purchased off market
The augmentations have a rare chance of dropping in CLL too
It's certainly a grind, but keep in mind as well you don't really need them unless you want the augmented judge gear
Never seen one personally though so either unlucky or they're pretty low drop rate
Need augmented laws order. For that I need augmented bozjan gear
I've gotten a couple gloves, but the drop rate is bad yeah
Are you completing DR Savage?
Aiming to
what is the max number of gearsets?
I think it's 40 once you've unlocked every class?
It increases by one with every class you unlock
i have unlocked everything and only have 37
Keep in mind castrum also used to only drop like.. 20? Coins?
It's clearly intended to be a grind, for better or worse
The grind for augmented gear is still ridiculous
It is incredible just how badly tuned bozja's original rewards were.
Man when will I reach 700k mettle and when will I augment my gear 😭
Dr Savage will probably be the most difficult part to get done
There’s discords for that. I think it is very much possible
That's what I'm struggling with right now -- I have no other Savage experience and my times don't match the rest of the playerbase well
Same
But sacrifices have to be made
To get that sweet 4 seater mount and the title
so where do I go to for help with my question then? cant find it anywhere on google
so is storm blood like a purchasable dlc?
You automatically get it when you purchase shadowbringers
Stormblood is the 2nd expansion. you get it for free when you purchase Shadowbringers

Can I get anything else from the Doman Restoration than what this guy sells? https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Junkmonger_(Doman_Enclave)#Bio-Doma II
You've finished the restoration?
After that it's just a free 40000 Gil weekly quest, basically
E4S is much easier now than it used to be, due to higher ilvl -> more damage and health -> more mechanics skipped or brute forced. You can just pug it easily after watching a guide.
I haven't yet
I just wanted to buy those colourful paper lamps behind the junkmonger.
I don't care to do e4s though, I want to do DRS
Oh apologies. I just read 4-seater and assumed you want the skyslipper.
Is GNB's only mitigation for tank buster just Heart of Stone?
I mean you have all your other CDs too but yeah all tanks only have 1 short cooldown mitigation
Super equal @twin delta
No difference
Also not like player population is ever something you can just look at with a degree of accuracy either
@wintry chasm alright thanks

Omega is lowkey underpopulated? There's a bunch of Goblet opens probably all the way back from January
hey guys how do set selection hotbars work?
Hello there, Is there any way to bulk sell trash from bag?
no, sadly
oh come on, I feel so much pain right now
To move your character to another data center,how much would it cost?
It's because there really isn't any item in the game that is trash, other than the Allagan pieces
so the game wouldn't know what you want to sell
yeah that's not really an item category
Character transfers are $18 whether it's within a data center or from one to another
at least the option to select all and sell, or alt + click to sell directly
btw folks, is the event up yet? I can't find any moogle mark beside the dungeons in duty roulette
Yes, the event started yesterday morning.
it's been up
You won't see the marks in the roulette list, only in the specific instance lists.
and they won't show icons in the roulettes, they'll be in- yeah
oh I need to look for them then , thanks
they look like this https://i.imgur.com/NyvFrqz.png
ty
Do you need shadowkeepers to play deep dungeon
no
shadowbringers is only required for bozja
which isn't really the same thing anyway
About the event, can I spam a dungeon many times to collect Tomestones?
specific dungeons, you can't just run any dungeons.
yes the ones with the mark, Will I get tomestones everytime I run it or only one time ?
