Here's a helpful SAM cheat sheet, but it is for lvl 80

wintry chasm
#

Ah that's better

glossy flare
#

So it might just confuse you further

wintry chasm
#

Yeah just follow that and ignore the skills you don't have

#

(also ignore the potions)

glossy flare
#

It seems complicated at first but it's really simple once you wrap the ol' bird brain around it 🙂

tame plinth
#

#

all names are gone

leaden ginkgo

scroll in?

obsidian patio
#

Yeah the names hide when you zoom out

edgy sail
#

How do you make different gear sets for classes that use the same armor drops?

#

I don't completely understand melding yet, but since the different tanks for example benefit from slightly different stat spreads, how do you build up for endgame so that you can swap between tank classes whenever you feel like it?

proud willow
#

long story short, you can't

#

you just deal with the fact that you'll have suboptimal melds on one of the classes

edgy sail
#

Is there a meld path that lets you use all tanks at 90%?

proud willow
#

unless you want to actually invest in acquiring two sets, or switching out all of the materia whenever you want to switch

#

for tanks, I believe you're supposed to go with the WAR build of Crit>Det

#

DH is too much of a wasted stat for them, whereas Det isn't horrible for other tanks

edgy sail
#

Warrior is the only one with a different path from the others?

warped nest
#

Yes

edgy sail
#

Oh then it's easy, I wasn't too interested in warrior anyway :)))

proud willow
#

There ya go then foxcloncool

final steeple
#

hi i did a duty that has Irregular Tomestones of Esoterics but i didn't get any

proud willow
#

did you run it unsynced or queue normally?

edgy sail
#

Just quickly, do the healers have different endgame melding specs?

final steeple
proud willow
#

I don't know about healer melds for sure

#

You only get tomes if you do it synced

final steeple
#

ok thank you

edgy sail
#

Alright, I'll ask healer people when I reach 80

glossy flare
#

I'm sure they have healer melds for all the jobs, just compare them

final steeple
#

if i play roullete and a quest that has Irregular Tomestones of Esoterics comes up do i get them or it doesn't work if it's roullete?

proud willow
#

it will work

final steeple
#

thanks

edgy sail
#

Sweet, thanks guys

proud willow
#

I don't think it works if you join in progress though

final steeple
#

alright gonna turn that off

oblique yew
#

is it better to use party finder?

glossy flare
#

Depends on what you want to use it for

oblique yew
#

eden

glossy flare
#

Savage or normal?

oblique yew
#

normal for now

glossy flare
#

then just use df

oblique yew
#

need to progress

glossy flare
#

you won't have much success with df on savage though

#

that's when you need pf, at least on EU and NA

honest anvil
#

in e10s, can others’ shadow clones slash you?

gleaming mist
honest anvil
#

Ye that’s the case if i get close to my own clone. But what happens if i dont, and someone else does, will the clone slash too?

gleaming mist
#

no

oak ice
#

Only if they get close to their clones

#

And after the boss uses Shadow Keeper to teleport all clones

worthy basin
#

best way (for me) when the doggo uses shadowkeeper, just turn back away so the shadow will cleave backwards.

inland crystal
proud willow
#

Do the level 35 Paladin quest

#

many abilities come from your class/job quests

#

They should take priority over everything, even MSQ

inland crystal
#

Forgot they existed

pulsar escarp
#

It happens

they stack multiplicatively

inland crystal
#

so 50% reduction?

proud willow
#

it's not a great idea to stack them, you will get more by using them one after the other

glossy flare
#

Think about it like this: You use Sentinel and it reduces dmg taken by 30%

#

Then after that you use rampart, which reduces the REMAINING dmg taken by 20%

#

So you have diminishing returns the more mitigation you stack

gritty oracle
#

note that it doesn't work on most bosses and doesn't actually reduce damage taken, it just makes the enemy deal damage less frequently

plain python
#

I fought a lv50 special Fate (Behemoth) and it doesn ask me to sync down 🤔

#

is there a reason for that?

cloud palm
#

WAIT I MISSED IT

wintry chasm
ember sleet
#

ok guys i have to do the thok ast thok primal battle to progress the heavensward story, have been queueing for 60 minutes now, and still havent found one person, was wondering if anyone would like to join me in the search so i can progress this damn story?

#

on light btw

oblique yew
#
  1. how do i unlock new game+
  2. do my inventory, glamour, gear and what not get carried over?
  3. in new game+ do i start from the very beginning or can i start at certain expansions?
  4. does the difficulty get increased?
  5. along with the cutscenes and dialogue will have to go through the dungeons as well?
rough anchor
#

Does pagos only have one type of crystal, compared to the two that were in anemos?
Or do I need to unlock something to get the other kind?
(I'm doing eureka without progressing the relic quest currently, as I want the armor glam, but I wanna passively stock up for the future just in case)

dense hound
glossy flare
#

It's essentially a system to relive certain story moments

#

Not something you do for the challenge or anything

oak ice
rough anchor
rough anchor
oak ice
#

You need to have a weapon to unlock the light grind, but as soon as you unlock you can stock them up

#

But you will have finished the Pagos Crystal and Louhi Ice grind long before the frosted proteans

marsh oyster
#

does anyone have a link to the catwalk discord server?

pine shale
#

Hey is there any point in using the lower tier gathering skills ie: Arbour Call I when you've unlocked Arbour Call II?

winged fossil
#

If i leave things in glamour chest or armoire, are they available to me to cast as glamours to items on the fly? Or if I want to turn a newly acquired into a thing I own already, does it have to be on my prson?

oak ice
#

You can put the items in your glamour dresser and armoire onto glamour plates, to make whole sets of glam that you can apply in cities

strong saddle
#

How do I level other jobs if MSQ is too high level for them?

oak ice

gritty oracle

Wait can you queue for other floors than 1 and 51?

rigid narwhal

Yeah

Oh

It's very bad

rigid narwhal

shut panther

Yeah, the early floors can be ugly

vital ruin

vital ruin

Too busy farming esoterics

I went from 8-10 after 10 floors

gritty oracle

Is there a way to disable vendor options in garlandtools list? Too lazy to recreate the same list in teamcraft.

Do you get moogle tomestome for doing msq roulette?

boreal storm
#

Yes

winged fossil
shut panther
#

unfortunately yes

#

either you go to a dresser or you ave the item with you

oak ice
#

To use them out in the field you need to have them on your person

#

Glamour plates are city only

vital ruin
#

What do u do when u die in potd

faint flare
#

Wait to be raised, either with a raise, phoenix down or by the cairn of return

delicate field
#

when you put something in the glam dresser, can you no longer use the item as gear?

faint flare
#

You can remove it

delicate field
#

oh ok

cosmic pilot
#

Where to start part 2 of eden?

faint flare
#

Same place part 1 ended, mord sorq

cosmic pilot
#

Thankss

faint flare
#

Its all in morq sorq

cosmic pilot
#

Are there anything else other than eden and nier?

#

Wanna try to finish them before free login ends

#

2 more days

#

I fought ||WoL|| how many more msq after that?

faint flare
#

Not much

shut panther
#

additionally, you can put something in the dresser, make a glamour plate with it, then take it out and use it

#

and it will stay on the plate

cosmic pilot
faint flare
#

1 dungeon

#

Okays

#

Are there any side stories other than eden and nier in ShB?

gritty oracle
#

Can I clip a doman dogwood into a glade couch so the sitting part of the dogwood is hidden?

shut panther
wintry chasm
#

also the trial series

rough fossil
#

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I am looking ahead to the Ishgard housing and wanted to know if it would be allowed (or if this is already a thing) to offer some gil as a tip for information on relocations. For instance, if I am looking to move to a certain plot in LB or Shiro, could I pay someone for letting me know if/when they relo from there into Ishgard?

as long as it isn't rmt you're in the clear

shut panther

trials set can be done in a couple hours

hollow violet
#

Is this a 9% chance to reach HQ or that I'm 9% of the way to reaching it?

shut panther
#

bozja will take several days if you speed through it

vital ruin
#

So we died at floor 40 potd boss

honest anvil
#

Is there a way to place a namazu servant on a desk?

vital ruin
#

Do I have to restart all the way from 31

hollow violet
cosmic pilot
wintry chasm
#

it's a series

#

there is more than 1

#

but yes that is one

cosmic pilot
wintry chasm
#

uhh

#

there is a MSQ requirement in patch 5.1

#

after that it's in The Lochs

cosmic pilot
#

Hmm

How do I get back in?

jaunty mason
#

should i keep timeworn maps? or sell them?

faint flare
#

Just see Shadowbringers

cosmic pilot
#

Not sure which one is it

agile laurel
#

@raw sorrel Ask a mentor. You either got kicked or leveled out of it, if the latter is the case then you can't get back in

slate arrow
#

Alternatively, it's full

#

It can happen, especially since a lot of people are online for the tome event it seems

delicate field
#

@jaunty mason up to you. some of them require many ppl to complete so they can be hard

honest anvil
#

Is there a way to place a namazu servant on another furniture piece?

gritty oracle
honest anvil

.> that sucks but tks

earnest wraith
vital ruin
#

So 25 minutes queuing for 31-40 floor potd
Does it get worse

hollow stratus
#

probably a dumb qustion but does this macro look ok? /micon "Raise"

/merror off

/ac "Swiftcast" <me>

/wait 1

/ac "Raise" <t>

/p No time for a catnap <t>

twilit arch
#

its strongly recommended to not macro swiftcast and raise together

#

its going to be slower in general than manually pressing swiftcast and then raise

#

if you really want a raise macro, for announcing who you're raising, just cut out swiftcast and put on a keybind that's comfortable for you. Also put /micon at the bottom of the macro

plain python
#

does FC-workshop housing exterior come in a full set?

twilit arch
#

yes

lethal mist
#

So I just achieved "highest rank" in Twin Adder and I still can't do Hunts on the Hunt board. I thought this was it? Also, it tells me I can now switch to another company I think. Am I truly done with Twin Adder and can switch to some other one for their rewards as well?

twilit arch
#

you also need to do the quest "let the hunt begin!"

hollow stratus
#

@twilit arch oh oki,other then that does it look ok,i dunno how to test it without letting someone die

twilit arch
#

should be at your grand company head quarters

#

yes, all in all the macro should work

plain python
#

the FC-crafted one that sells on marketboard only shows "wall", but it will give me a full set, right?

hollow stratus
#

thankyou,i was gonna cast thin air by myself so i guess swift cast should too

lethal mist
#

I see. Maybe I started it but never finished it 🤔 I'll look into it when I get on again!

twilit arch
#

yes, basically every housing exterior crafted by FC workshop is a full housing exterior. Its not like the housing exteriors that you can craft with normal crafters, in that it can be mixed and matched

little swift
#

Don't put the wait as a separate line to account for animation buffer

#

Thats a waste of a macro line

dark copper
#

Which of the Stormblood primal mounts is obtainable in the current moogle event?

faint flare
#

Lakshami

pseudo quartz
#

Lakshmi?

dark copper
#

which mounts are exclusive other than the Falcon?

oblique yew
#

wtf. main scenario roulette has only 6 memebers

#

this never happened to me before

faint flare
#

None

dark copper
faint flare
dark copper
#

Which I never understood why

oblique yew
#

do they get a penalty?

faint flare
#

The first person does

dark copper
#

I always seem to join Castrum on Party in Progress

#

with 10 seconds in

faint flare
#

People drop castrum cause its less XP than praetorium

oblique yew
#

so is it now scaled for 6 ppl?

twilit arch
#

no

faint flare
#

No

#

Dungeons never scale

dark copper
little swift
#

You need to replace the members

oblique yew
#

nah

#

we are just running as 6

little swift
#

Its still playable until those people arrive

oblique yew
#

apparently

dark copper
#

The party leader needs to click on replenish ranks to fill the party back to 8

twilit arch
#

yeah...cos castrum doesn't require that much ilvl to clear

faint flare
#

The party leader probably already has put up recruitment

dark copper
#

Castrum does require a bit more brainpower though

oblique yew
#

does everyone get that notification?

#

i got it

twilit arch
#

You need like 2 people with decent gear to steam roll it

oblique yew
#

idk if i am the leader

dark copper
#

in the party list

oblique yew
#

fck me

#

i am the leader

faint flare
#

You just say yes

#

Thats all

oblique yew
#

how do i add memebers?

faint flare
#

Just press Yes

#

On the pop up

oblique yew
#

i dismissed everythign

#

at the start

hollow violet
#

Is there a way to generate GP faster? It looks like it recovers about 5/tick

oblique yew
#

i didnt notice it

faint flare
#

Then should be a notification in the notification area

dark copper
#

to get an instant boost to GP

twilit arch
#

cordials, but they have cooldowns between usages

hollow violet
#

thanks. I sold all of my food to clear inventory about 15 minutes ago lol. I'll start carrying some around

dark copper
#

cordials sorry

faint flare
#

Food only increases your max gp

dark copper
#

not food

faint flare
#

You get traits later to increase its regen slightly

hollow violet
#

ah okay. thanks!

faint flare
#

Its at 70 and 80

#

The 70 trait probably is

little swift
#

Yes 70 trait is from the quest

#

Do them anyways you get skills like luck of the mountaineer and dredge

#

Also upgrades to you unearth ii to iii

gritty oracle
#

unearth 3 is HUGE when trying to get treasure maps or seeds.

little swift
#

Unearth iii isn't for maps

#

Maps can't be hq

frosty falcon
#

why doesn't SE offer a level to 50 skip? i'm getting my friend into the game and she isn't really getting hooked by arr but i know she'd love heavensward. i'd buy her the arr skip and a level 50 if i could, but that

#

s not an option

#

70 is overkill

strange coral
#

I guess if you're trying to get a HQ chain to use Luck of the Mountaineer, but even then I never do that to find maps. I find it easier to just go node to node until one appears.

little swift
#

No reason to sell lower level skips when that isn't close to endgame cap

#

Just level manually

#

Your friend needs to learn to play the game anyways if you're skipping them

#

And arr has important story elements relevant to worldbuilding and the expansions

#

Skipping them would likely leave her confused about what's going on

#

Not to say she can't enjoy the expansions without it

#

But she'll definitely be a lot less invested

frosty falcon
#

i just hope arr holds her attention long enough to actually reach hw :\

little swift
#

How far in is she

frosty falcon
#

just joined a gc and got her chocobo, so still early

little swift
#

So barely into the msq

#

I feel you on it

#

It doesn't really feel like it has a narrative focus until maybe about titan

honest orchid
#

Maybe try partying up for some of the early dungeons? I find duties more fun than msq, even the low level ones lol

little swift
#

At the point they're at they've done 3 dungeons 1 trial

frosty falcon
#

yeah we've done the dungeons and trial together

honest orchid
#

Ah well, not much you can do except encourage cutscenes skipping lolol

#

Your friend could probably catch up on the are story with a quick wiki read

#

Arr

faint flare
#

Yes

wispy totem
#

Is there a macro to leave a dungeon/abandon a dungeon? I'm doing PotD atm to lvl archer to lvl 30

faint flare
#

No, just press the duty finder button again and press leave

#

hmmm I'm seeing /leave is an action but it says, 'unavailable at this time' while I'm in PotD solo fix party

You pick conjuerer

modest igloo
faint flare
#

Healer and starts in gridina

left cove
#

ok cool perfect, and then I can be scholar after? or only whm?

wintry chasm
#

If you wanna play scholar afterwards you'd have to unlock arcanist and level that up once you get access to Limsa Lominsa

#

ok thanks

#

Hello y’all ! I’m like brand new to the game. Y’all think I should get a mouse n keyboard or is controller fine? Seems overwhelming with all these abilities and stuff xD idk how to adjust my HUD either

#

Ty

dark copper
#

Ignoring healers and tanks, can you rely on your position in the aggro list as a gauge of how much DPS you are doing?

wintry chasm
#

to a degree

dark copper
#

I know that certain DPS jobs have enmity reduction abilities

wintry chasm
#

But the issue is that uh

#

if you die for example, your entire emnity resets

#

and that also wouldn't take into account damage you contribute through buffs and stuff

#

tbh like, you could probably use that for a rough look based on the opener but then after that there are a lot of factors that can fuck with that bar

slate arrow
wintry chasm
#

and tank aggro will be so big that it'll make it impossible to see the actual difference between aggro position so you still wouldn't see how close you are to someone else

little swift
#

And consider healing generates a lot of aggro as well

supple barn
#

Is it possible to return to the instance in the quest “the bozja incident”?

i moved to a med house like 2 weeks ago, and the house just became medium.

#

hax

worthy basin
#

welp the decorations and stuff are gone and stored in the storage box.

#

also you get like a small discount if you move to a medium house from a small house

#

what gear does an arcanist use? (retainers)

#

can I turn them into a scholar?

remote lintel
#

casting

#

yes

signal aspen
#

how do I do that if I level boost them to 70

#

is it just like a soul stone?

slate arrow
#

buy a job scroll from the retainer and assign them the job

remote lintel
#

you use the certificate thing on them

fresh wing
#

best way to farm poetic ?

remote lintel
#

and they cant be a higher level than your class

worthy basin
#

and you can go to rival wings too that is 50 per game and you also win the moogles. 🙂 2 birds with 1 stone

fresh wing
#

o i thought there would be faster way but

#

ty

worthy basin
#

that can give you 30 poetics per mob, and most a trains are 12 mobs so that is 360 poetics in 20 mins or so.

wicked blade
remote lintel
#

they give poetics too

wicked blade
#

thanks!

#

When I eventually make a video series on FF14, would it be better to start a new character or use my current character and just NG+?

glossy flare
#

You want to turn the MSQ into a video series?

#

If so, it doesn't really matter I guess. NG+ may allow you to use more fancy glams from the beginning

signal aspen
#

what's a reliable way to get level 70 scholar gear for your retainer? anything I can do to farm 5 sets pretty easily?

#

kinda low on poetics.

#

and gil

cursive abyss
signal aspen
#

unsync omega?

#

not on this account unfortunately.

#

I did BA and everything on my main char

glossy flare
#

I mean when you start investing time to farm gear you might as well farm gil or poetics

#

Wouldn't be any less efficient

cursive abyss
signal aspen
#

yeeaaa I know

#

I don't have gathers or bunnies on this character

#

it really hits hard for the gil problem

#

I have been turning my seals into gil, but not enough really

#

that I have to get ventures now

glossy flare
#

Could also just farm poetics

signal aspen
#

any idea what's the fastest way to farm them?

#

I got a 80 scholar

glossy flare
#

Do MSQ roulette and this week's wondrous tails for a good chunk

#

Should be 800 already

modern sorrel
#

Is it faster to level all combat classes to 80 than it is to level all crafting and gathering classes to 80?

glossy flare
#

After that just run Castrum I guess

do you think doing unsync runs of some easy level 70 dungeon would do for gear until they're level 80?

Also the daily frontline roulette gives a ton of EXP

I am in level 63 MSQ and keep capping on Poetics. Is there s HW relic stage where you dump poetics I can unlock relatively quickly or would that be too deep into the anima relic process?

faint flare
#

Unidentified items

#

Need 10 of each

glossy flare
#

I would recommend dumping them on gear instead tbh

#

For your alt jobs in the future

leaden ginkgo
#

I have the shire weapon for all of my combat classes and even bought some ironworks weapons for a couple of alt classes haha

glossy flare
#

Weapons only? No other gear?

leaden ginkgo
#

No I got the full ironworks set for my main class in ARR but in HW the primal gear they give you is perfectly fine

remote lintel
#

just get shire

faint flare
#

The primal stuff is bare minimum

remote lintel
#

the primal gear is only 240

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm close to getting MSQ gear better than shire though...

glossy flare

Then get it for alt jobs

#

Dunno what job you are playing but it may share gear with another anyway

is bahamut second coil savage more difficult than other savages? im running an old content raid group and a perseon said that synched second coil is as difficult as current ultimates. is that true?

#

i was under the impression that it was just "regular" savages

remote lintel
#

doubt it

#

its savage

scarlet arrow
#

synced T9 will probably give you nightmares though

lilac flume
#

i just didnt know if coil savages were a leap up from the difficulties of future savages or not

#

i was under the impression that all savages were in generally the same difficulty tier

little swift
#

no there are definitely some tiers that are easier than others

#

but not by a huge margin usually

lilac flume
#

yeah the person i was speaking to compared running synched coil savages to running ultimates in terms of difficulty, which surpised me

little swift
#

the thing about coils is that it was very much an experimental phase on difficulty of fight encounters

#

but at the same time we have such an ilvl gap now that it can trivialize a lot more of the fights than what people would think

lilac flume
#

yeah but the thing is our group is running ilvl/lvl synched

#

so lvl 50

little swift
#

yah but likening it to ultimates would be a bit of a stretch

#

totally anecdotal, but i've seen a streamer prog a decent set of these fights blind as a sprout static and they usually were able to move through the floors with an hour or so, sometimes by butt brute forcing it a lot more than expected

is there away to... turn off quest jingle?

not to my knowledge but let me check it for you

turn off bg music

but that removes everything

Materia & Melding FAQ

How do I unlock melding?

Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.

How can I get my gear melded?

To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.

Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?

Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.

Why is my meld giving +0 stats?

Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.

The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.

To get it you run the current raid tier, it always works like that

second serpent lieutenant

So macros are bad in the game , what about weak auras or add-ons does this game has any

Gotta do squadrons then

First Lieutenant requires your Squadron to be rank 3

for a new savage prog, if my group is lacking a caster, would the 1% missing buff from raid comp matter for the most part?

I just unlocked DR savage. Is there any discord dedicated to that?

as a paladin its pretty much just shirk and maybe intervention mouseover

frozen wind

I guess to get squadron to level 3, I just have to keep training them?

little swift
#

but manual clicking is going to be faster

frozen wind

training them isnt by sending missions right

#

its the improving physical stat one

#

or

#

is it by mission?

little swift
rose oak
#

I'm just trying to set myself up as optimal as possible for a smooth tanking.

Any UI like elv ui in wow or can u copy paste a string that you like for example

frozen wind
#

ahHhh

#

oh shoot i started training htem

#

now i gotta wait an hour beforeI can 😢

glossy flare
#

Well you do need to train them to complete the missions

little swift
#

ui is largely just self adjustment

#

you can copy and paste other people's ui files if you have access to those

remote lintel
#

you dont need any outside thing for optimal tanking

#

if you really want to you could macro your invuln and/or shirk/provoke but thats about it

#

don't macro provoke

Gotcha I know In wow we have weak auras for boss abilities,add-ons etc

No such thing here

there is cactbot that tells you upcoming boss abilities

thats an ACT add-on

since fights are so scripted

Gotta make due with what the game gives you in terms of UI but honestly, while WoW sucks without addons XIV does not

you can move and adjust most stuff in hud layout

they're not gated by msq progress

do dps classes generate potancy?

do only tanks do that or other classes

all jobs have spells that have potency on them

How do I unlock my 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.

little swift
#

its normal to be overleveled

#

basically to place them more safely be out closer to the edge of the arena and drop them about 1/3 of the way around apart

And will there be a big bump into char power/progression going from 35+ to level 1 summoner?

hyperion going by the lucky bancho censuses irc but it really doesnt matter cause of world visit and stuff like duty finder/party finder is cross world visit

signal aspen
#

yeah I was just curious which one would have the highest cluster of players

silver ruin
#

they all have a high cluster of players honestly

#

the difference is pretty minimal

signal aspen
#

even things like Ultros?

silver ruin
#

yes

#

i see a lot of ultros players in all kinds of content

signal aspen
#

considering whom normally stay there

little swift
#

?

#

what does that even mean

silver ruin
#

^

little swift
#

thats largely irrelevant anecdotal evidence

signal aspen
#

you're missing the point

#

that server had a large amount of image board users, generally and it also has neogaf probably wouldn't be as popular as the other ones

#

I'm just asking about the largest cluster of players

silver ruin
#

we answered that, and we also said the difference is fairly minimal on most servers

little swift
#

this kind of information is largely unverifiable anyways

silver ruin
#

^

little swift
#

because the way luckybancho categorizes what they consider players

silver ruin
#

even the luckybancho census which is the best info we got, is still ancedotal

little swift
#

isn't representative of the whole populus

silver ruin
#

so unless SE releases actual numbers, we only got that to go off of + other guesses

signal aspen
#

well if all the numbers are remotely even than the question got answered

#

and you can honestly survey or ask around to see what would be what kind of community

silver ruin
#

yes rmt

silver ruin
remote lintel
#

the communities are basically the same because of world visit

so its gonna vary

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.

I mean they do take actions but it's almost impossible to stamp out

signal aspen
#

oh okay it kinda closes the PF for them?

remote lintel
#

no they wouldnt have a PF in the first place

gloomy ice
#

Trials accounts can't initiate or accept item trades

remote lintel
#

because that would require interacting with a paid player and talking to them

#

which they cant do because theyre bots

signal aspen
#

when Shadowbringers hit, we had a huge bot issue on EU

#

a lot of them were teleporting and glitching ontop of walls in Ul'dah

#

a GM even ended up sending me to jail thinking I was somehow related to RMT

silver ruin
#

na still has a huge bot issue in regards to rmt

signal aspen
#

when all I had done was do Eureka for hours and hours before echo nerf

#

how did they overcome this?

#

did their anti cheat get better?

little swift
#

the bot problem partially had to do with the twitch prime starter game codes

#

that came out before shb release

signal aspen
#

oh

little swift
#

at that point in time that was probably the farthest a bot could go into

#

which meant they could spam lv50 dungeons for gil

signal aspen
#

is that why the price of demis went down?

little swift
#

no

#

demis just got nerfed in sell price

signal aspen
#

this happened like twice overall in the game's lifespan right?

little swift
#

there's a patch note on it

signal aspen
#

that's kinda crazy was my lazy way of getting rid of poetics

little swift
#

unidentified stuff for soils is still a fine alternative

signal aspen
#

are there overall less crafters on NA than EU?

#

I see a loooot of things on Excalibur going for dummy amounts

#

when you could like do an unsync for a minute and make like 200k-500k

#

I’m not sure I’d say less, but people seem inherently more greedy on selling stuff high

I mean you can buy the racial starting gear for almost nothing yet you still find it for 10-20k and maybe even more on the MB

||spoiler text goes here||

(not that naming that dungeon is really a spoiler)

signal aspen
#

I also notice a trend on things like || heroes gauntlet|| they have full 510, no gather, crafters, level boosted.

#

are they just straight up gil buyers??

#

a lot of them have sprouts.

#

did they come from WoW?

faint flare
#

Gil isn't that hard to get even as a non combat

#

Plus sets a cheap these days

signal aspen
#

yeah but they have like nothing unlocked

faint flare
#

Even just the story gil gets you a good amount

signal aspen
#

are those sets like 100k ea per piece?

twilit arch
#

you can make gil just fine without having crafting/gathering leveled

#

doing treasure maps, selling allegory crafting materials, etc

silver ruin
#

^ gil isnt used for much

mighty sundial
#

Would this be a good channel for tech support?

signal aspen
#

fair enough

twilit arch
#

also very likely that if they're a sprout in lvl 80 dungeon, they're likely someone's alt

You may wish to try a VPN (perhaps something like Mudfish with FastConnect)

Not much demand for a BLU-specific channel, but there’s a couple discord’s dedicated to them

That's actually a question I can ask. Does mudfish have the security features typical VPNs do? Since I thought it worked a little differently

sleek roost
#

VPN is a bit of a misnomer for gaming VPNs

supple barn

Wait can gaming vpns actually give u better ping?

hey guys. i was wondering where i can find a good hotbar guide and tips for dark knight? im not comftorable with the one im using now the standard one

sleek roost
#

If you're shopping for a traditional VPN you're generally shopping for security and I wouldn't trust any of these companies with that in the slightest.

The main benefits for gaming VPNs are different traffic routes (which is generally only useful if your ISP is having a routing problem), a few registry tweaks to your network adapters they do on the fly which you could do yourself, and some (like Mudfish's FastConnect feature) also mess with packet acknowledgement which can make games like FF14 feel a bit more responsive for skills

supple barn
#

In general I usually put the combos together in order and the buffs in one section by type

#

Other than that use the balance discord

#

Maybe they can help

sleek roost
#

But the sales pitch most of them throw around of somehow providing a more direct route to gaming servers as if they're a backbone provider are mostly hot air

slate arrow
#

There's no such thing as a direct route in today's packet based connections

#

There's encrypted routes yes but direct connections are horribly inefficient in modern internet

random nest
#

I downloaded a skin via mod tool, where does it get stored in the game? :d

sleek roost
#

Unless you're running on dark fibre there's no such thing as a direct route lol

#

You should probably consult the website/Discord you got the tool from Malmo (:

Heavensward Jobs and How to Unlock Them

Heavensward Expansion Jobs: Dark Knight (DRK, Tank), Astrologian (AST, Healer), and Machinist (MCH, Ranged DPS). These jobs start at level 30 and require the completion of the level 50 main scenario quest "Before the Dawn".
Since the 5.3 update DRK, AST, and MCH are now included in the free trial/Starter edition of the game, though the unlock requirements are still the same.

Job Unlock Locations:
Dark Knight - Ishgardian Citizen at The Pillars (13,9), quest name is "Our End".
Astrologian - Jannequinard at The Pillars (15,10), quest name is "Stairway to the Heavens".
Machinist - Stephanivien at Foundation (8,10), quest name is "Savior of Skysteel".
