Is there something to check fate spawn times?
proud willow
No, it's only for brand new accounts. You can't put in a referral code at any point afterward
jaunty mason
aahh i see, thanks!
honest anvil
Is there something to check fate spawn times?
@leaden ginkgo no but if you mean for special FATEs, it’s best to join a fate/ hunt discord for your data center to get notified

Does the FC MGP buff affect the 50k MGP you get from the tomestones event?
leaden ginkgo
Are unidentifiable ores guaranteed after completing a dragonskin map?
Why do the GMs not ban people who do obvious RMT trades like gifting an item code & then accepting gil?
You'd figure they'd put a detection system in place for that
Am I missing something?
oak ice
They ban them in waves
warm snow
Does the FC MGP buff affect the 50k MGP you get from the tomestones event?
iirc no
buffs don't effect payout from items or selling only the MGP you actually win
leaden ginkgo
From what I've heard, as long as you don't say anything about it ingame, you won't get banned @oak ice
Seems they lack even simple detection outside of player reports
oak ice
There are things like third party programs they can't detect, that you're fine using if you don't talk about it ingame
But those questing bots are pretty obvious what they're doing

Does anyone know what the default binding for walk/run is on controller?
I don't believe there is a default. I think you have to create a Macro for it.

@ornate owl you can wait
If you somehow planned to wait until end of this year, then you might want to buy the next complete edition
The one with Endwalker in it
ornate owl
I actually have codes for the starter edition and Stormblood

lethal mist
Just finished heavensward. Can I press skip on the roling text or will that skip some scene that comes afterwards?
I went through ARR's rolling text and there were scenes after iirc. Didn't dare press anything back then
warped nest
@solid pilot you don't have a lot of choices at low level
Gladiator and Marauder are the two starter tanks
They become Paladin and Warrior respectively
honest anvil
if you skip, you skip the rolling text bit only
warped nest
Conjurer is your only choice for low level healer

if you skip, you skip the rolling text bit only
I see, thanks!

Arcanist (Mage) branch into Scholar (Healer) at lvl 30
Regarding which jobs pair well
It doesn't matter much for most cases
oak ice
Pretty sure there are scenes after, but those count as a separate cutscene so you won't skip those unless you skip again
warped nest
Just go with what you feel is cool or fun
honest anvil
yes the rolling text is its own scene. Safe to skip that. Next story scene will play

1.x was anything that came before ARR

Old version was 1.0 but yes

They completely shut it down and rebuilt it

Well they noticed that 1.0 was.... shit
So they made a new game from scratch, essentially

Hey, I was wondering, I got the scroll thing for a level 70 astologist, and it gives you 500,000 gil. What should I use it on?
For the astrologist per say.

That's really not a lot of gil
glossy flare
Yeah, it's not much to spend it on
Especially since the lvl boost comes with gear so... just keep it

if dont have a lv 80 job would save it for a crafted set (510) for that since tome crap works good enough for leveling (to 74/75ish)
strange coral
The augmented Scaevan gear it gives you is old level 70 endgame gear, it will last until about level 75.
topaz python
Cool, I don't even have the dlc yet but plan to get it.
glossy flare
There is lvl 80 gear you can by from the MB once you get there
but 500k will likely not be enough for a full set
faint flare
Story gives alot
Like 3mil+ for all of it
After that you can sell tomestone mats, craft/gather stuff, do treasure maps
topaz python
I was looking into tomestone mats

treasure maps and chucking things on MB was how I got most of my gil (since I dont religiously do roulettes)

You can manually move it to the normal inventory, but it's best to keep things you might wear in the armory chest
leaden ginkgo
But I couldn't come in just asking for that and not ask for Vinyl's tails. Lol
faint flare
Do note the recommended gear button and Gear sets only pull from the armoury chest
Not inventory
leaden ginkgo
I'll keep that in mind.
lilac tree
I figured out how to fix my problem with the error. I have to delete the system save data to be able to log in. But I can log in that's what matters

honest anvil
can 1 bozja instance spawn 2 castrum?
hollow violet
Probably why my skin is green
faint flare
Bojza instances usually last several hours before closing
So they'll have multiple castrums over its life
honest anvil
i meant at the same time
faint flare
No
honest anvil
this castrum in my instance has stayed 1/48 for like 10 min
does that have to close for another one to spawn?
faint flare
No
Healers with a functioning brain will see it
I only one a macro that's purely just
/P using Invuln next pull
So they know in advance
Not after using all their healing tools
warm snow
The only invuln that might need a macro is living dead

Ye... well.. i just had a SCH that I kinda.. got paranoid to superboilde in Qitana

honest anvil
is there a cooldown between castrum spawns?

faint flare
is there a cooldown between castrum spawns?
1 hour
warm snow
This is the only time superbolide can be bad and communication can remove it
stable herald
i always wait till im nearly dead before I pop Superboilde
heavy wadi
what if the healer bene's or excog's you
stable herald
this DOES result in a bit of a .. off timing later down the line
stable herald
i have a macro that says im superboilding in the next pull
faint flare
That's all you really need
stable herald
i should always pop it when NEARLY dead right?
faint flare
Healerd will functioning brains will adjust
stable herald
not right off the bat?
warm snow
NEVER PRE PULL INVULN
faint flare
I usually use like a Heart of stone/short defensive
warm snow
It's a massive waste

do ya start popping on CDs JUST before superboilde drops or na
faint flare
Around 1s
stable herald
how many? Just one CD?
warm snow
In a good party you shouldn't need to use superbolide at all
stable herald
HAHAHA. well.
mental oracle
Wait so if change weapon I become level 1.. so am I supposed to level up my character again?
faint flare
Stacking cooldowns there makes yhe pull worse
warm snow
For arr jobs you have to level up from 1
faint flare
Cause you have a long period of tine where you have no cooldowns
warm snow
For hw jobs you start at 30
faint flare
Its always better to be tankier for longer
warm snow
Stormblood jobs start at 50, shadowbringers at 60 and the end walker jobs will start at 70
faint flare
Like Heart of stone, camo or reprisals
Basically anything really thats weaker than the effectiveness of Rampart
stable herald
I always thought of Heart of stone as a top up for TBs
faint flare
Its your short defensive cd
warm snow
Cool down is used to describe off global skills like rampart, reprisal etc that give tanking mitigation
stable herald
like, pop it on JUST before the TB beats your face in
I mean, im spoiled by TBN, so Im trying to learn how other classes handle TBs
faint flare
Tbn is just heart of stone
warm snow
Use them when you've a large amount of trash mobs on you in a trash pull. Or they can be used to mitigate tank busters and raid wides from bosses

So do people buy houses in this game or something or what?
strange coral
Yes
glossy flare
If you win Housing (Savage) you can be proud of it
glossy flare
Hi 
It's a meme
As you have probably seen in the housing area they actually exist in some kind of overworld
So space is limited, as in there can only be a finite number of houses per housing area per server
Which means getting one can be kinda... competetive
(Savage is just the term for the hard version of raids in this game)
strange coral
You can also get an apartment, which are limited, but there's plenty of them as they don't take up space on a map.
honest anvil
it’s having your OWN house that’s the meme
just having a house isnt that savage-y
Easiest way is you can ask to be made a tenant
leaden ginkgo
I see.
Nop, don't have one.
Right now, I only have a couple of goals.
Play the game, learn how to play it properly, gear up, do everything as much as I can, etc, grow a community on stream with the game and then eventually transition to making new characters on other servers to hang out with said friends.
Lol
But yeah, I appreciate the info.
Housing will wait.
Getting big axe boy comes first.

Keep in mind houses will demo after 30 days (I think) 45 days of inactivity, so buying a house is a commitment to having constant subscription

There is no dps stance.

Tank stance just means that your abilities generate additional aggro.
leaden ginkgo
Ah fair.
open coral
Which is good.
open coral
But having it on doesn't decrease the damage that you do or anything.
leaden ginkgo
Yeah basically it's a passive that works as a taunt more or less.
faint flare
It makes all your attacks have a 10x aggro multiplier
leaden ginkgo
Meaning if I hit em more, they'll stay more around me and not someone else.
open coral
Ehh, more like it just gives a little extra oomph to your ability to attract attention when you hit things.
It doesn't actively taunt.

You get an xp bonus as long as you have a higher level job, which makes it easier to level, but you do still have to go through the levels.

Hello, I'm leveling up my Dragoon (level 40) and I was just doing a dugeon ( The stone vigil ) and the healer kapt say I wasn't doing my AOE ?? I'm pretty sure I know what this means and I'm pretty sure I was doing everything right. I was doing my rotations and staying away from taking damage and didn't die. I'm not sure what I was doing wrong so can someone help me ? or was the healer just being weird. Thanks for any help
vernal urchin
dragoon has a skill called doom spike at level 40
honest orchid
AoE = area of effect. Usually when the tank pulls a large group the DPS need to spam their AOE damaging attacks, but obviously it edepends on the dungeon sand stuff

yes I was using doom spike

then you were doing nothing wrong and the healer was just being weird

It increases all main stats, so it increases vitality (hp) and mind (healing) so yes
remote lintel
because you dont need 8 people for a dungeon
faint flare
It just makes it easier with two healers
Healers already dont really use gcds to heal dungeons
Even if you jack up the damage then you just alternate tanks each pull and use all your defensives, or immunities each pack
Plus people didn't really enjoy castrum/praetorium, even when cutscenes were skippable

robust crow
Hey guys,I'm levelling my first character and would like to try the dark knight ...
beat the entirety of ARR (which means you have to enter heavensward)
that's the only criteria to unlock DRK
when you unlock DRK you start on it at level 30 despite whatever level your other classes are
chances are, you will be far ahead of level 50 by the time you enter HW
remote lintel
you unlock it at lvl 50 and the class starts at lvl 30

lots of people are well into their 60s by the time they enter ishgard (start of heavensward)

If I have an old FFXIV service account from days where game had a reboot (there are no characters on it) and now I want to buy a Complete Edition from SE store, can I just create a new service account aside of my old one, apply the code there and be eligible for 30 free days that comes with it?

You need to click on the "your account" first to have it appear, I know the option is not there on the home page.

Any reason you're not renewing the current service account

"For Current users wanting to add FINAL FANTASY XIV to a new service account: Select "Your Account", then "Add New Service Account" I suppose that does answer my question.
little swift
Though opening a new service on the same account should work
swift steppe
Any reason you're not renewing the current service account
That inactive account would need an upgrade to Shadowbringers + buying sub to even start playing, so I figured out it would be better to just get Complete Edition while it's on sale right now
little swift
@swift steppe your friends are just trying it out correct?
So it would be less of an investment to just renew one time and see if they commit
Since they get the same content as you do up to heavensward end
swift steppe
They'll commit, we've been aiming to play the game for a long time now, so it's not something that was decided on a whim :P. With the release of the trailer for the Endwalker, we figured out, now it's the best time.

Then the service account method might be better
That or starting a new account altogether to not have to jump as many hoops
