noice, thank you
V gatherer materia are actually still used for pentamelding aesthete and sell quite well
I would buy gear with them for leveling
or you can get folklore tokens
do i get the free armor for lvl 80 alt jobs as well?
As long as you do their shb quests
Is there any Item reward that are one time thing and can't get it again from the event ? to start farming for those I mean
oh shit. totally forgot about those
go get the falcon mount
The scrip gear can get you to 70 if you let it, iirc
it is a tiemd event mount back in stb i think
cool, I am getting that and the dinasour
but it is available now through moogles
Yeah so do I luckily I have enough Gold coins to buy relic armor
you mean V materia? Melding with them isnt necessary til endgame endgame so no worries. Just buy or do your sb job quests for gears
The 100 tomestone item is always unique to each moogle event
In this case, the namazu earring
is deep dungeon dead?
Not at all
been match making for 10 minutes
Lots of people running 50+ potd for relics these days
kinda neat to be on free trial, i can chat here, and once im level 59 on my main, i swap to another job and level from 1-59 again and rince and repeat 🙂
its early in the morning, and lower floors generally aren't active since most people run 51+
what are riding maps?
they increase ground movement speed in that zone
basically moot if you already have flying
Increase land Mount speed. All but completely useless now.
oh cool thanks folks

What's the best way to farm allied seals?
Depends on a lot of things, server, what kind of house you want
Blu, I think.
Is there a way to save my current characters looks?
I wanna use a Fantasia to try a Lalafell but I wanna save my current look just incase I wanna go back
right click on your character's name at character select screen and select save appearance
In cycles of faith, when does the prey debuff appear on the target?
BLU's only lvl 34
Less difficult than a year ago thanks to auto-demolish being reinstated, but still pretty bad. Depends on your server's population heavily. Your best bet is grabbing any Goblet small and trying to relocate.
what time does the weekly hunt board reset?
does deep dungeon level my jobs/class
Yes.
is there any reason to use piercing talon on DRG
Not at the same rate you level inside it, mind. You just get a chunk of exp at the end of each set.
incredibly limited. Chances are if you've the downtime to use it something has gone wrong.
lol thats what i thought that skill is so garbage
cause even the jumps make you go into close range so
@gritty oracle as he says i’ve toyed with you long enough psure
basically, if you have to be away from the boss for extended periods, you have something to keep the gcd rolling
yo does anyone have any idea when the complete edition will go on sale again?
Any good spell for farming estoteric in aurum vale using blu ?
on pc
we can't rly say since the sales often happens at random times, but maybe around the digital fanfest
whens that?
what?
oh saw someone asking about cycle of faith; i @ the wrong person then
May 13/14 iirc
Best combo is really rams voice + ultravibe to take care of the trash between bosses (and missile for bosses)
ooooooooh. Punctuation, folks. And reply feature. But thanks a lot!
thanks ~!

If I afk through cutscenes and do other stuff, is prae "faster" than AV?
Because of the relatively fixed cs legnth even with voices set to jp or de its faster to do multiple blu runs if just want moogle tomes
an average no blue AV finishes probably as you get to “call them down” in Prae
blu av finishes before gaius has finished speaking before the first boss
barely even joking
blu can clear av in 5 minutesor less
basically one of the options on the aethernet shard will put you at the gates of judgement
every network does that more or less
same with the other major cities, it effectively puts you at the zone line to the city
limsa/grid/uldah will give you the doors teleport once you complete them too
is there a guide for paladin materias?
@forest sage Thanks

So quick question, is undraw for astro ever actually useful?
No, it's better to spend an unwanted card on Lord/Lady of Crowns
I thought so. I just started playing astro and I just dont see why I would ever undraw a card
It's a remnant of an older iteration of the job
It used to have its place but right now it's not useful
will there be other ways soon to get 530 gear ? 5th week in a row where i cleared e9-11s and go away with only books
when im setting up cross hot bar on controller, how do i slot skills on the LT+RT and RT+LT bars?
is there a way to see all of your skill bars at once to slot skills onto
oh I think its holding right bumper, nvm 
5.5 will allow buying Cryptlurker upgrades (excepy weapon) with nier coins and nuts....5.56 or later will remove the loot lock on savage completely
for leveling purposes, is it better to queue up for Duty Roulette leveling even after the daily reward or just all available dungeons on the dungeons tab? Just unlocked Astrologian and want to bring it up to 50 to go through HW content with
or is there a better alternative entirely?
Roulettes are only worth it once a day for the bonus
If you want to level via dungeons, which is viable for healers because of short queue times, just always queue for the highest level "leveling dungeon" available to you.
By which i mean do not queue for lvl 50/60/70 dungeons
What's the name of that one mount that has a mirror effect, changes shape and looks like an upside down glamour prism?
Other leveling options would be PotD or HoH
ozma.
.
Yup, thanks
Thanks, are dungeons the way to go then for healers? One forum post said to spam guild leves (which I've not done a single one of this game so no idea what they entail)
Oh god no, I wouldn't want to spam leves. Maybe for the first 15 levels until you unlock dungeons but... just no 😄
I mean it's not bad but dungeons are faster
lol glad I asked. Sometimes the 5 year old Gamefaqs posts are trolly xD
And yeah personally I would level a healer via dungeons
It's not es repetitive as potd or hoh and the short queue times mean it's not any less efficient
thanks!
hmm okay , atleast thats something. thanks
hey, i have a question about switching to paladin, i have a gladiator thats level 23, as soon as I hit 30 i can become a paladin, right? so do I then have to start at level 1 again?
at level 30 you will get a job quest. the reward will be a job stone that you can equip to become a lvl 30 paladin.
and is a paladin better in every way? like an evolved version?
also, when I would become a dark knight, do I need to level from level 1 again at that point?
Jobs weren't strictly an upgrade in every way in the beginning, but they are now
yeah
Hi guys how do I disable chat for my friend?
and about this?
Dark Knight and the other Heavensward jobs are level 30 when you unlock them
thanks!
Are you trying to have your friend not see certain channels like /yell and /party?
You need to be past a certain part of the MSQ to get the paladin quest from what I could find. I’m in the same boat lvl 39 and don’t have the option to grab the quest.
I just got to lvl 80 whats the highest item level gear i can get the quickest?
best way to farm for new event?
you can buy i510 exarchic gear from the market board
Blue mage aurum vale or pvp
thanks
the relevant msq is named Sylph-Management. It's entirely likely that you've overleveled considerably from boosted xp - don't worry about it
you're not going to end up in any dungeons as gladiator when you should be paladin, as they will unlock after that msq
Thanks! I think I’m just about there. I got a quest with a similar name and went to the wolf den. Looked at the uldah map afterwards and didn’t see a new quest in the gladiator guild so I’m guessing I’m close.
best way to farm new event if I don't have blue mage leveled?
AV or rival wings
I want to get the postmoogle cap and it says I have to do The Little Postmoogle That Could side quest, but the the moogle that's meant to give me the quest in limsa is not there...does anyone know where to start?
do unscyned runs give tomes?
for the event? nope
I guess I will spam wander palace
im pretty new to the game and thought i would take a little break from the msq grind to get some irregular tomestones, but which mounts should i purchase? im thinking which are the most tedious to get through normal means while still looking cool
I don't like AV
You have to do the whole postmoogle quest chain which starts at Klynthota in Mor Dhona with "Of Errant Epistles".
@raven sage thank you so much!
the t rex and the falcon mounts probably, t rex is an annoyingly rare drop and falcon was from a limited time event
those are probably the ""must buys""

and also how often does this event occur? if it comes around pretty often i would probably only grind for one mount or two, but if the event is very rare i should probably spend some time on it
it happens in between patches usually
brings all the arr beast tribe mounts, along with other mounts that may be hard-ish to acquire
It's not something you have every few months
The last time we saw a moogle tome event was about 6 months ago.
and I'm just gonna get the blissful kamuy cuz it'll save some farming
damn so there is no fast way to farm without blue mage
And the rewards are different every time in terms of mounts and minions.
And orchestrion rolls.
I mean there is, spam the sb alliance raids they're generally p quick
pvp is fast
that too
I should get my blue mage up then. Currently at level 50.
BLU is not a hard and fast requirement. It just makes certain types of tome farming more efficient. You can still do the same content with normal groups.
We're talking maybe a difference of about 5 minutes with a solid group.
it takes <1 hour from 50-70
That's only true if you have a BLU leveling group or a speedrun partner.
Chocobo racing question: after I breed a fledgling, is there a way to see how the birds own stats (NOT parents) will be without registering it?
Nvm, just found out you can retire birds that don't have the stats you want immediately
Is it normal for a tank to not have stance up on prae?
Only one tank needs to take aggro yes
One person can tank the whole thing
The other tank is there for back up mostly
I'm a new tank, just hit 51 and the 2nd tank never put his up, so when I died people started getting mad LOL
I mean he should have taken things up a bit faster
But he didn't need it up before you died
provoke kinda mitigates that issue
Coolio, just double checking. Tbh the healers weren't paying attention at ultima weapon, I had mitigation on but never received any healing
And if you're doing it for the first time, he should probably have done most of the tanking due to better gear
Probably a fluke
Yeah nothing you can really do if the healers don't do their job
True, I had like half and ironworks set on so it's not like I was taking too much damage
But I noticed people tend to zone out on prae, I get it tho
Oh, if you have some pieces of Ironworks it should be fine
I always completely ignore the magitek bits because dodging them is sorta fun when all of them stay alive, and it's normally still fine
But I do try to judge that based on how well its gone upto there
Of course, nothing is as deadly as that one teleport
hey guys, what does star mean near crafting or mining item?
Relative difficulty of the item vs equal level stuff
Highet stars means they need more stats than other equal level stuff
Is it possible to reach 200+ craftmanship before HW?
Do you get kicked off the server if you're AFK for too long?
No, only in the firmament
That's only usually an issue when an expansion drops
shb release had a 10 minute window
I mean, probably yeah? Gearing will be trickier but why not
Then you were kicked
i've yet to see servers when a new xpac drops, Is it chaotic?
Its like a patch drop
yeah but people have ways around it
But bigger
talking to an npc
Same. I heard Stormblood was horrible?
opening hud
I can't seem to find gears that can go up to that level as a FT.
Stormblood had solo instances you couldnt enter due to instance servers being full
Shadowbringers release wasn't bad
yeah
Since they learnt their lesson and split the servere
shb was better
Only problem with this is you could bypass the afk kick timer by starting a craft
Ah, FT will make it harder. Most of the better crafting gear you have access to, especially accessories, you need to actually craft
Can't even to crafting scrips yet because I think the unlock for that is in HW
Er, collectables, I mean.
aite. looks like I need to see how I can get to HWs.
collectables are in mor dhona
Collectables? Are these the poetics?
I think the starting quest is in Ishgard? But it's been a while
oh yeah wait that's that annoying one
Morgayne
But no collectables are for crafters and gatherers
They give you scrips
I guess similar to poetics but they're not really
They tend to be how you get crafting gear after ARR
Free Trial means no market board, so I think the technically easiest crafting gear you can get is if you've been keeping up with GC stuff
Outside of like, actually crafting your own gear
aite. seems like it'll be tough for me to craft as a FT.
whats the timeworn zonureskin map?
revelation tombsotnes
and the allegory tombstones?
Those are all level 80 endgame items
Does anyone know if you can grind floor 1-10 of palace of the dead for timeworns?
You can but its a low chance
Incredibly bad drop rate
should i start getting it or no
@noble patio I went looking to see what 50 sets there are and the artisan set from your grand company should give you the stats you want. you would just need to rank up to what's required and then have the seals to buy each item
toi save up
Maybe the revelation tomes as you can only get 450 a week, and you wont get many until you finish Shadowbringers
Do you not get a timeworn every 10 floors boss?
are they any other watys to get the revelation ones
Pretty much. My time in ft I didn't do a lot of crafting, and I'll admit being geared with HW stuff made getting HQ for all the job quests a lot easier.
I actually got around the 300k gil cap by buying the stuff for GC turn-ins
and the allergory ones
ok
Which you can't access yet
The drop rate is based on the floor. If you don't have a party just spam 50-100.
now whatys the timeworm sutff
Treasure maps
Does anybody know whats up with this NPC in Bozja? Never seen him before and after I talked to him he vanished
Its a treasure map
ah
Ooo, thx. Looks like I have to head to Mor Dhona.
Its the npc who pilots some of the magitek you fight, like the Scorpion and Gabriel
Thx
I know it's just that I can't find anything related to this NPC in particular on garlandtools for example
If you've got levelled aether pool equipment 50-100 isn't muchslower than 1-50 anyway

I don't mean the character I mean the NPC that can be found at that spot
He appears randomly
so thats where the best of the best is yes?
For 80 stuff yes
For most of them yes
and its bought by the revelatiuons and allegory stuff
and its onlly assescaple after shadows is finished
Yes
For story purposes
got a long way to go then
If you are level 80 now, but your story is lvl 73
As long as you are geared for 73 ish
71
You will be fine
my dragoon is 80
...why?
Scaevan will last until 75 gear
why those classes
They start at 60
They start at 60
they start higher
They start at 60
.....
Less levelling to catch up to msq
??
you CAN just do msq but like its just a lot of "wasted" exp
if you don't care then nbd!
If your story is like lvl 77 or 78, then it is whatev
everyone just said they starteed at 60 and i was like HMM I THINK THEY START AT 690
60
nnnfndn
but yeah i have a dancer already
But your story is only 71
and my dancer is 64
but yeah like the idea is "put the story exp to good use"
lil time in hoh + leveling roulette for a couple days
thats what im gonna do till i get to 71
Not even couple of days
how long then
Maybe 10 hours or less
idt i have full that
396 is plenty good up to lvl 74-75 ish story
idkl what it even is
and heres my dancer
if you are wondering why its shit its becasue i negleacted it every since hw
Scaeven is the best lvl 70 gears you can buy with Poetics tomestone
thats in rhagalers reach?
You've been using dai-ryumyamku
That's what it is?
Anyone know anything about chocobo racing? I have questions about it but they just get kinda buried here
On Dragoon. Accessories will lag behind for a long while during msq
Hi, was just wondering if anyone can explain how Mog Station counts days. I played back in 2013 on the PS3, I think it was the two week trial that came with physical copies of the game so it may not be counted. Then a few months later I bought a 60 day timecard and played again. Fast forward to 2021, I bought the Complete Edition on PC and got 30 days "free" because it was my first time playing on the PC platform. It just expired the other day and was looking at buying Crysta to renew it, but the amount of "Days Subscribed" on my account page is confusing me...
So way do I do
It's days purchased I'm pretty sure
You brought a 60 day time card so you have 60days subbed total
So it won't count the free month?
Free days dont court
I have a very very cursory understanding of it
In the total days subbed
Also btw dragoon is pretty much set till I beat shadows
Maybe I can help figure it out
No gear gets better then what I got
The 73 dungeon will give better
Looks like Dwarven 78 hq
71 drops 390 and 73 drops 400
The accessories aren't great
They always do
I360
Basically just been working through the pedigrees rn, about to retire my pedigree 3 but I've noticed that the second I hit R-100 I just, without fail lose every race
Im just saying like
The gear in dungons are shit compared to what I had
From arr to storm
Cause poetic gear lasts for 5 levels
When people say “ lfg r13 fates” what does that mean exactly
AI of races are artificially coded to fuck you over difficulty wise
Looking for group rank 13 for fates
So r13 or higher people join on him , their average mettle per critical engagement will be more?
How does it work
No, theyre just saying they're rank 13
What is that necessary in the first place
I've yet to hit a road block. So I'm keeping what I got
so basically with dungeon gear, you're able to ignore it kinda for prior expacs. not for whatever is current.
And you need higher ranks to access the rest of the zone
Rank 8 minimum to access the whole zone
You're playing dps so theoretically not getting hit will be sufficient but you're also outputting less damage and therefore need to do fights longer to complete them noct
That is my goal. To reach 700k for dr savage
Then you need more fates and CEs for more mettle to finish ranking
Not gearing even in leveling is doing a disservice to the other people you play with
It still takes longer, applies to non-savage content too
I get that but it basically means I'm levelling 80% slower, even with dressage 3 I'm getting barely 200xp a race
390 ia the bare minimum to get to the 79 dungeon
It is but you're going to be not doing as well when the game literally hands you stuff as you go up
Why though . Playing Castrum at rank 12 is netting me 35k mettle . But these critical engagements give me like 3k or 4K
Doesn’t seem worth it
can i play with my character in different worlds in the same data center?
So while you can definitely scoot by if you get stuff use it
Yes
Just gotta world visit
!faq worldvisit @nocturne oracle
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
And instanced content is always cross world anyway
Just get dungeon stuff, or scaevan for lv75 and under stuff
I'll try
And cover any other slots with whatever dungeons give you, since 71 drops 390, 73 is 400, 75 is like 409 or something
Drg is strength based right
Or is it anything else?
You do have an understanding of how the rating formula works right? I think the best bet is typically to rush through the pedigrees and inbreeding to perfection after
Trying to get higher rating when you're gated by rank and stat limits seems rough
Yeah I just assumed my stats were kinda OK, Im not going for a perfect chocobo on my first run through the pedigrees because I do NOT have the patience for that shit
Can I DM someone to ask them about a Shadowbringers trial quest line?
Yah I think the races would just be a tad easier if you had another player in them. Just ai is rough
You can @blissful tulip
Or ask here
Just don't wanna post spoilers.
Hello I finished the first part of Shadowbringers so I have access to Lv 80 tombstones vendors and I have two lv 80 to gear (from 0 or nearly)
I have an idea to buy weapon from MB (taking something like i510) and then, every other piece of set with tombstone of revelation, is it a good idea?
Doesn't matter its all flavour
Choose whichever it doesn't impact gameplay
You could alternatively unlock the relic weapon and work that towards i515.
Is the subscription in mogstation for game time applied to ps5 and pc play?
Yes the sub is for the account. The platform doesn't matter assuming you own the licenses on those said platforms
Ok thank you!
can i pick the job machinist if my class is gladiator?
Yes, starting class doesn't matter. But you need to reach the HW content to unlock machinist.
okay ty
Do poetics tome have use beyond tome gear ?
they're also used for various relic weapon questlines
Relic weapons
and you can buy some materias and some other stuff like topsoil for gardening
A currency by any other name would be just as spendable
or sell them for demicrystals to make gil
Anima weapons are gorgeous but need about 20k poetics each
demicrystals no longer make good gil btw @desert dagger if you mean by vendoring
they lowered the price they sell 50g to a vendor now iirc
Ahh, I didn't know that. Is there something better to buy with unneeded poetics then?
soil!
Oh cool. Thanks! 🙂
where do i go to become a paladin once im level 30 gladiator?
i just finished 'the rematch' quest
!faq job
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.
ty
I'm gonna "deliver" a bunch of my old gear for seals. Any gear I shouldn't sell/deliver at this point? I'm a DRG 54 so doubt I have anythign of value really (except what I wear obviously).
hi guys im a lv52 WHM, how can i use the afflatus solace skill? have i already unlock the lily system?
Basically anything you want to keep for a glam.
No, just turn in everything you dont want to keep for looks.
Normally I would suggest to keep any iornworks gear you got but DRG doesn't share gear with anyone
Except for accessories
And I believe the lily system is locked until you actually do the first, maybe second HW WHM job quest
I still haven't gotten into this glam thing, but yday some people explained it and AFAIK it doesn't matter what gear I use, I can "transform" it into whatever I want for the fashion guy, right? So it looks like what he wants. So I just need 1 for each slot that I constantly transform around each week?
ohhh right, thank you
question, if i do like, Prae 5 times do i get 50 of those moogle things or is it once a day (ive never done one of the events before ;;)
You still need the gear you want the appearance of.
So if you got 2 pieces, X and Y, you can make X look like Y. But you do need both.
thank you xD
I'm considering prae for moogle stuff since I can do other things while it's happening
Compared to actually participating
Lots of downtime
@glossy flare Oh I see, I need the second as well. Well considering it's completely random each week that would mean keeping a LOT of gear, right? I might as well buy whatever it is that week and use that, no?
yeah i can do so many other things doing it so no big deal i want the doggie
Sure if you just care about the fashion report. But people still glam their stuff without touching that, they just want to look fancy
Which is why we suggested to keep every piece of gear you just like the look of
Yeah, I don't reccommend keeping literally everything, just what you actually like
Like I have a pair of the Aurum Smalls for beach gear, because mages skip pants if you have a long enough robe
Ah I see. Well early on everything looked like shit. It's only now that I got that Wyrm's Coffer with gear that I started looking somewhat decent so no worries there 😂
And fashion report just nets you MGP, which are not essential in any way. In fact they just get you stuff to be fancy

Well there are achievements for MGP and I'm a huge Triple Triads fan (and those cards ain't cheap). So that's more important to me than looks atm 😉
Well fair enough
Not everything you need for FR can be bought every week btw
Sometimes it's dungeon gear for example
But still, just keeping every piece of gear ever in hopes it might come up for the report seems not very efficient.
Is it even possible to keep everything? Isn't space finite?
Is there any way to farm cyrcus tower unsynch?
how do i stop enemies from aggroing me as a whm? is it cause i used holy? ;-;
Not possible, there is indeed limited space you can have
You can unsync alliance raids but that still requires 3 separate groups. So 6 people minimum
Got it, thanks
Did you have regen on one your allies? That draws aggro
do yall think its more efficient to grind normal dungeons or msq dungeons for these irregular tomestones
If you need poetics then msq
I find WP faster than AV in a normal party or an i doing something wrong
Depends on the party I'd say
But yeah, Wanderers palace would be the other option just for the irregular ones
oh it must be cause of medica 2 then
AV can be done in about 9 minutes on a regular party doing it right
you don't need to keep medica ii up all the time in trash mob pulls, its not worth it
Yeah, don't apply regen prior to any engage and don't worry about keeping it up all the time
Medica 2 is basically cure 2 on single target but more mana
regen on the tank is fine that doesn't matter
the tank should have no problem keeping aggro
Hi all. i just started to game is there a way to open char to a prefered server?
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
You might get aggro briefly before the tank can establish it if there is a regen up. But that's more annoying than anything else
so i need to wait
If the tank is in front, there is no issue. The mobs head your way anywayd
for off hours yes
got it tysm! just to make sure, holy doesnt draw aggro?
i just opened char at odin ddnt know pref servers gives double ex etc
Everything generates aggro
!status odin
Tanks just generate stupid amounts
it's not preferred
gotchu
Provided they actually hit the mob ofc
@remote lintel yea i know :S
should i go for prefered one or it doesnt matter for a newbie at all
The xp bonus helps levelling altd
You'll be vastly overlevelled for the story on preferred server
i see
you need to change your class to conj
You need to remoce your soulstone
oh
oh yeah that
It has to be conjuerer only
ok thx
What's the version of the Dragonsong that plays when Hraesvelgr is talking, but there are no lyrics?
in the cutscene?
Yeah
there are lyrics
I swear, there are two different versions of dragonsong tho. One for cutscenes and one for the final battle
what's hidden gorge?
Rival wings
Its a pvp game mode
the 72man?
is arcanist good starter job?
All jobs are fine
oh really? i searched a bit early game is kinda clunky and boring sometimes hard
Difficulty not really but clunky for sure
Surprise
Most classes don't really smooth out until around level 60.

I just bought a mount from the store, and haven’t received, but have read it can take 24 hours for purchases to come through is this normal?
Ok so just keep an eye out for the mail icon over the next few days?
Ok thank you!
Is the moogle tome event an annual event?
no
It comes out before a new patch to incentive people to play before the patch drops
It usually comes out before a new patch

how do i queue for castrum in bozja?
ah sry
@faint flare and is there a timer? instead of asking people
1 hour after the last
if you buy the mount speed map from bicolor vendors, it doesn't affect your move speed while flying is that right?
I haven’t gotten to this far but I saw people saying they made alts to do savage raids in a different role. Can you only main one job per account or something?
No
The alts is to avoid loot locks
As gear faster
You can main multiple but it takes longer to gear everything
duty roulette MSQ doesnt have the irregular tombstone?
It does
okay
It doesn't matter how you que into the instance
Oh I see, thanks
Sorry just to ask about the mount again, it didn’t appear on my payment history on the mog station site and I haven’t been charged yet, does this also take time to come through? I don’t want to wait for nothing
what's the main use of clusters?
is there a pronunciation guide for samurai / ninja abilities or I'm going to call midare setsugekka mid array set get car
do you have to be synced in order to get the event tomes?
Yes
whats the diffrence between grade 1 and grade 9 chocobo
Take japanese lessons? Jokes aside, looking at some pointers on how to pronounce japanese words is probably your best bet.
Typically the payment should be visible if you log in to the store and check purchase history. Make sure that is there and that you received the code. And make sure you actually entered the code onto mogstation
!faq jpguide
I haven't combed this in a while but it does have a lot of stuff
Me da ray set su ge ka would be more accurate anyways
it covers nothing on ability names
The romanization of the skill names are pretty orthographic
It's also mostly aimed at text communication so sadly no pointers on pronunciation
is there any difference between ! criticals and !! criticals
You read them as they are spelled
One is crit 2 is direct hit crit
! is a crit
!! is a direct crit
Yes. One is a normal crit, multiple are Direct hit crit
Direct hit crits are your crit damage and The 25% direct hit damage combined
Its the big number for the good chemicals
Quick question, I use a security token. Which is on my iPad... HOWEVER, when I had the battery replaced, it caught fire and so I had to buy a new tablet. I sumbitted a ticket online. But is there a support number I can call? I've heard horror stories of people waiting 4-6 weeks for an email.
Crit DH midare expands my lifespan
yeah reading them how they are spelled is how I got what I typed above lol
My recommendation for reading it is to read it syllable by syllable. Don't merge syllables randomly and basically cut the syllables at vowels
You're cutting stuff off at consonants
yeah if there's an audio clip of someone saying it I can just mimic that
Japanese is very much a language where the last "letter" of a syllable is a vowel and never a consonant
Excepy for n when it ends a word
Just hire an IRL samurai to teach you
Could maybe take a look at some SAM guides on yt for pointers on pronunciation. No guarantee they are doing it perfectly obviously
Can probably comb through the weskalber guides
For an americanised but sorta accurate pronunciation
I’m having problems on the site I have tried to add my card details and it gives me a code and charges €1 to update? I have done this twice and it doesn’t save and takes a euro every time
@stuck ingot https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=midare setsugekka&op=translate
just press the speaker icon under the japanese word
is this good
well thats how you say it lol
It's surprisingly good, didn't expect that 😄
in japanese
okay cool I know TTS stuff can be horribly jank
google's is pretty amazing honestly
its better than it used to be
for japanese its practically almost there i think
other than not recognizing the differences between formal and informal languages
I mean there are worse languages to pick up than japanese, just saying
Anyone know if Square Enix has a support number? I can't find it, but the site say's they opened the live number line a couple of weeks ago.
Such as English lel
https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=Hissatsu&op=translate
these feel legitimate?
Google's free service instantly translates words, phrases, and web pages between English and over 100 other languages.
yes
alright I'll use this on the abilities
just making sure that pronunciation wasn't a one off of being decent
its fine
it doesn't account for phonological processes
but for the purposes of at least getting it right its good
whats a phonological process
linguistic fancy schmancy talk for when you say things and the way you say it is altered by the combination of sounds
definitely 
@stuck ingot Japanese pronunciation is actually quite simple. It's a syllabic language consisting of five vowels (pronounced as: ah, ee, ooh, ey, oh), one standalone consonant (n), and the rest is phoneme pairs consisting of one consonant and one vowel sound. As long as you understand how the romanized vowels are pronounced (a = ah, i = ee, u = ooh, e = ey, o = oh) you can reasonably parse out pretty much any pronunciation.
Neat. TIL
i would say e = eh as in "meh" more than ey as in may
You’ll still have an accent though, and Japanese accents are tonal, instead of stressed. It’s very difficult for an English speaker to learn to speak Japanese without a noticeable accent.
But you’ll be understood well enough.
tonal differences are less complicated in japanese
its just whether you stress the first syllable and fall or rise into a later stress
I mean, you do get things like ame (rain) and ame (candy) or hashi (chopsticks) and hashi (bridge), where the syllabic emphasis changes the meaning of the word, but those are pretty rare.
Yeah, and usually native speakers will understand just via context.
Yes, if someone says "Ahh, kyo wa ame ga furimasu ne." you can reasonably expect they're not talking about candy falling from the sky.
they do that to make sure the card is active, typically its just a temporary pull that either never finalizes or is refunded.
Ok thanks, so why isn’t my card details saving when I update them on the site?
Sweeettt I just disabled my security token with help from live chat. :3 only had 2 people ahead of me
Can we preorder the new expansion pack yet?
no
No
gasp When can we?
when se says so
No one knows
I want the cool preorder item
I made the mistake of not pre-ordering shadwobringer (wasn't playing ff at the time) and I'm jelly of that xp earring
They'll announce when pre-orders are open
Are there any healers that work (or have an ability) similar to the Discipline Priest whereby dealing damage = healing?
No lifesteal healing
Not really, no
Healers are either big heals or big shields
upcoming one is a shield one btw
Should I go ask customer service live chat if they know when the new expansion pre order is going to be?
No
they wont know
You won't get any answer on that
Just be patient
Literally nobody knows yet.
When is the live letter again? today?
Even the actual release date of the expansion hasn't been announced. Just "Fall 2021"
They might tell us during the digital fanfest in May
There's not a LL for awhile. We just had one in February.
Again, whoever posted that link for customer support. TYVM, I saved that in my bookmarks. I was cryingo nthe inside not being able to login
hey guys where can i shop potions? im at new gridania
What kind of potions are you trying to buy?
Old Gridania, just north of the leatherwork building. the MB is there, or you can buy.... orange juices
ty bro
does the next CLL start when the previous one ends or when the previous one was initiated?
a spider is on my screen. D:
oh dear

Does a Red Mage do much healing in end game content like Eden's Promise?
Just re-upped my subscription after a 3 month break. ;_; On a new pc, so I need to redo my hud layout, macro list ect ect D:
There aren't really hybrid classes in this game.
hey guys how can i coor my gear or clothes?
A dps is a dps, even if it has some support capability.
color
Do the quest in Vesper Bay to unlock dyeing.
i was looking at smn rotation. do you immediately top off all of the egi skills on 80 when you start rotation? and do you save your ruin iv for movement or the egi timer resets and you have 4 stacks
me?
^
It's a
in Vesper Bay.
ty
If you want to change your hairstyle, you need to do a quest for that as well. Which starter city was it? Limsa?
limsa
teleport to horizon
My understanding of SMN is fairly limited, but from what I do know, SMN goes in three phases. https://www.akhmorning.com/jobs/smn/guide/rotation/ should have a better answer for you.
yeah i was reading it
ruin 4 is for movement
And bahamut
you use ruin 3 prepull and then use up all your egi assaults
looks like when you go into dwt you use enkindle and devotion
All the way at the bottom of that guide there's a second on Ruin IV usage.
guys i cant find horizon
so ruin 3 prepull, use egi assault 1 and 2, energy drain weave, dwt, enkindle, remaining egi assault, devotion, deathflare shoop
Western Thanalan @inland falcon
Yes
ty
sigh On a new pc so I have to setup my layout an macros again D: not cool
you should have uploaded your settings to the cloud on your old pc
holy cow lvl 80 rotation is pretty complicated
Yeah, I wasn't think about that at the time
would it be complicated if you're high end summoner?
Some rotations become second nature after awhile
ghosting?
guys where can.i buy orange juice sorry im.confused
the vendor at the back
Read th ghosting section
i see lot.of vendors and every one sell different.things
back right
You can buy orange juice, or grapes for 3g each (if you in old gridiania, to the left of the recepionist in that shopping area
potions, you should just buy them on the MB, PotD drops Mega Potions like crazy so they should be dirt cheap (10-100g each)
grapes or orange juice is just for the xp bonus for food*
ty.bro
np, The blue potions in the MB are what you're looking for. Theirs a potions section on the MB. Then scroll down until you see 'potoins, high potions, mega potions ect ect' that section is for HP recovery
Do monks ever use The Forbidden Chakra before being able to passively generate chakra stacks? Using meditate seems ill advised since it's a gcd. (Unless of course some mechanic forces you away from the boss and you actually have time to press the button a few times)
meditation is used prepull
He's talking about before you get the trait that allows it to generate through crits
what's a good spot to power level a blue mage friend at they're level 52
Prior to the trait you use mediate during downtime
any nice AoE spots in stormblood?
Khlosuia beach
Will all the current moogle treasure trove items drop a lot in price? Got the Nightmare mount I wanted, now trying to decide whether I should invest in MGP vouchers moving forward and get the rest with gil
SB works?
So I'm correct in assuming there is no place for meditation during your actual rotation?
Just use it whenver you have time essentially
Before the crit trait it will be very underutilized
If the boss jumps away, spam that button
Well, that's gonna be some clunky 8 levels
Sometimes progression is so weird in this game
Yeah, MNK got reworked in 5.4, but that still remains an issue
With the exception of maybe the orchestrion scrolls and minions, none of the rewards from the moogle event can be purchased with gil ever.
where can i buy gisahl greens?
But don't expect the MB prices for those few items that are tradable to drop significantly.
Bango Zango near the Limsa aetheryte is the best shop for it
Yeah, but he's close to the teleport
ty
I always go out to Bentbranch Meadows because I know for certain that that vendor has them. Not all generic vendors carry gysahl greens.
Chat mode settings > Enable Direct chat. What does that do? It's default off
when you press keys they automatically type in chat
It starts typing in chat whenever you press a key
With controller
its for controller users
is there a setting to automatically sort the party list when you add ppl
On O you can sort it after role order
No, make a /psort macro button
But it will always have you at the top
To a PF group? I don't think so, although /psort will work.
so what do I do with a level 18 arcanist and no weapon for arcanist
However /psort doesn't work on crossworld party lists.
How do you have no weapon?
buy an arcanist book?
i see, i always do the O method
Buy one from vendors
Or market board
ah true
main cities
Main cities
The city markets
Battlecraft vendors
/psort is quicker at least, ty
which there are dozens
Okay, got it. Thanks!
i can't find gisahl greens 😦
Few vendors in every main city
Question about Hud Layout. Is their a file I can copy past that is already done for me?
im at old gridania
Look at Independent merchants
I googled it and got gisahl greens from gridania vendor
In the markets
old gridania?
ok ty
that new gridania btw
Well I did not expect to choose attributes for it (Gunblade) Critical Hit and then what?
Got it, thx
why i can't use rain of death im level 52
you didn't do the job quest
i used the skill before
Except for stormblood jobs all jobs have their 50 to 60 skills locked behind job quests
alternatively, you're synced
Then you're synced down
Are there any good screenshots of hud layouts? looking for inspiration
Are you in a dungeon taht lvl sync'd you?
what is synced down?
Your level is reduced
Are you in a dungeon aright now? what lvl does it say you are atm?
Dungeons, fates and solo instances will reduce your level if you're overlevelled
When you're synced, both your stats and level values go down to match the level the fate says is the maximum
This also removes access to higher level skills
Or are you ina pvp type stuff? That's a whole other can of worms xD
im in dungeon now
Then you're being synced down to that dungeons level
yes level 37
In this case, until you enter Ishgard, you'll be stuck in level 50 content and dungeons
You can't access higher level content
Until you do more story
Your level means nothing
aaaaaaa
Your story progress is everything

From swallows compass

Never
darn lool thanks for clearing that up
if you used it with an outfit you were currently wearing
it might have clipped with the gloves and removed the cape that way
if you dont have blu than yes
ooh if I were to get BLU, what would they be doing for the moogle tomes? and any specific level req preference?
Aurum vale
You'll want Ultravibration, rams voice and missile bare minimum
Primal spells helps speed up last boss
ooh okay gotcha thanks
Hey everyone!
A very noobish question now. IM 31 on my arcanist and have no idea how to become a summoner?

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.
What are the best attributes for the drg laws order relic?
crit > dhit > det
okie thank youuu!
Can I equip 2 of the same ring? Cause I need only one more 530 ring for my WHM to have full 530 accessories, and I'm pretty sure the E9S ring is BiS
If they're not unique
Savage and Cryptlurker is unique so
You need augmented Crpytlurker if you want another 530 ring
