The way to skip is classified as an exploit, and is bannable if you're reported.

because they give alot of the moogle points

but the cutscenes takes soo long

they give that much because it takes so long

E8S i guess but only bc light's rampant was really weird to figure out. now they are all equal if doing it on min ilvl

dark copper
# open coral Netflix

cutscenes are too short and spaced too unevenly far apart to properly watch netflix

E8S was pretty hellish when it first came out, iirc.

Where can I buy Aldgoat Leather?

Market Board.

8s isn't bad past lr

Each fight basically just has one big headache mechanic really

open coral
#

Er, not E8, I meant O8S. Godka.

#

Didn't do it while it was current, myself, but I heard stories from my friends who were in statics.

#

Aight erm, that's expensive. How can I obtain Aldgoat Leather?

open coral
#

I don't really have a basis for the Alexander raids. I only started playing around 2.1 or 2.2, and didn't start getting interested in raids until SB.

leaden ginkgo
#

ahh I see

#

And be a leatherworker. It's a synthesized item. Aldgoat skin + Alumen

#

Eastern Thanalan

All around Camp Drybone.

#

Longhorns and Myotragus are aldgoats.

#

Basically all the goat-like monsters there.

clever ether
#

Archer/bard is it disicple of war or all classes when ti comes to armor?

open coral
#

Yes

#

Disciple of War is for physical damage dealers and tanks. Disciple of Magic is for spellcaster damage dealers and healers.

#

If something says "all classes" that means both DoW and DoM can equip it, in theory.

clever ether
#

So all classes for ranged dps šŸ™‚

little swift
#

Look for stuff that gives dexterity

open coral
#

Ranged dps are physical damage dealers.

clever ether
#

DoW/DoM?

little swift
#

Dow

open coral
#

Disciple of War/Disciple of Magic.

clever ether
#

So dexterity is main stat?

open coral
#

For ranged physical dps, yes.

#

That means ARC/BRD, DNC, and MCH

twilit arch
#

and ninja

open coral
#

And NIN. But they only share accessories. They've got their own left side sets.

silver lion
#

what class could be a big help to a paladin for a duo discovery journey ?

open coral
#

What do you mean?

faint flare
#

There's no real class synergies

#

They basically removed them all

#

So it doesn't matter

Literally play whatever

@silver lion a healer, your own pocket healer šŸ™‚

Can I sell the craftin weapons you get from accepting crafting job w/o any worries?

absolutely

there are vendors that sell them for cheap

storm egret
#

I've unlocked second sets of beast tribe quests but for some reason they arent showing up after i finished the first bunch?

#

normally i can just talk to the person again and get the rest

#

but theyre not here now

#

do they run on a different timer?

strange coral
#

If you went to rank 7 then you don't get new ones like you did on the previous ranks.

modest igloo
#

for HW+ its only 3 a day

#

unless you rank up then you get another 3

clever ether
storm egret
#

I did rank them up

#

I had extra quests yesterday

#

but not today

twilit arch
#

you only get 3 extra on the rank up

Oh

It's a one time thing?

aww that sucks

excluding rank 7

these are gonna take forever

you don't get extras for 7 since that basically finishes the "story"

halcyon gorge
#

quick question, i suddenly can't run anymore when i went out of the starting zone. I tried pressing numlock but it doesn't do anything

#

when i went back to the starting zone i still can't run

#

any ideas what the problem is?

faint flare
#

Just walking?

halcyon gorge
#

yup

faint flare

Numpad /

halcyon gorge
#

yeah i pressed the numlock key but it doesn't toggle it back on

twilit arch

its not numlock

you've turned on the walk toggle which is /

Just bought the game after playing the free trial, do I have to re-install the whole game for it to recognise that I have the full game or is there an easier way to get the launcher to recognise it?

I've done Pixie beast tribes, all my roulettes, any way to get this last 2mil without doing a dungeon?

merry tinsel
leaden ginkgo
#

Would you guys recommend doing gathering and synthesis early on or even at all?

#

Gathering, 100% yes

#

Synthesis? Mehhh not really

obsidian patio
leaden ginkgo
#

Wait aren't you supposed to gather so you can like synthesize equipment?

#

I misread, sorry

#

Is okie

#

Gathering so you can supply your own crafting classes with mats will save you a stupid amount of gil

obsidian patio
#

Gathering is pretty cheap/easy to do on its own since you can buy vendor gear with the Gil you make from mining stuff

leaden ginkgo
#

I'd suggest finishing MSQ though & at least getting one job to 80 before bothering with crafting/gathering though

#

Oh ok, yeah I just reached the waking sands in the msq.

#

So ill wait on the disciple of the hand classes for a bit

well that's a shame :/

Is it 8 characters per service account across all servers or per server?

for standard its per server, for a total of 48 characters

48 characters? That’s nuts

final niche

silly question but is this server the official server?

open coral

There is no official server.

final niche

as in, ran by SE?

We're the subreddit discord server.

Is there a way to copy HUD layout for alt with a shared user macro?

so everyone here just helps out of their own accord?

open coral

Yep

wow

#

thank you for your service everyone

open coral

We're here because we love the game and we want other people to also love the game.

rough fossil
#

So is the 1 personal + 1 FC house limit per service account or per server?

final niche
#

well it definitely helped me like the game lol

obsidian patio
#

Per server

obsidian patio
open coral
#

That's also why sometimes answers will be wrong, or just "we don't know". Because none of us actually work for SE. šŸ˜„

obsidian patio
#

Then you just have to carefully recreate it yourself. :/

leaden ginkgo
#

So there’s no text command involving with hud layouts?

open coral
#

Not one that works across characters.

Hey guys

#

I'm in a party dungeon and someone dced how do i add a new member?

obsidian patio
#

Duty finder > add members

neat ermine
hasty musk
#

only the party leader can do it iirc

#

the person with a mark next to their job on the party list

neat ermine
#

i am leader

#

and it wont let me

#

ehh ill just abandon

pseudo quartz
#

Did you kick the dc'd person?

neat ermine
#

no the guy is still in the party

faint flare
#

Then open the social menu and vote dimiss

#

Then say yes to the pop up

pseudo quartz
#

Once they're voted off, then the option to refill your ranks should appear

warm snow
#

You won't be able to kick if in combat or there's still loot being rolled

neat ermine
#

ty so mucho

#

that was stressful i almost left the party

clever ether
#

Can anyone answer me this. I leveled a marauder to 15 and than warrior to 50. Through all levels I got to 37 gear level. At 50 I picked samurai and got base gear of 73 gear level. Is this power jump normal?

pseudo quartz
#

Gear level is based on, well, your gear

little swift
#

if you opened your level 50 job quest coffer

#

your gear would be about the same

pseudo quartz
#

But when you got Samurai, the default gear it gave you might have been better then the gear you already had

clever ether
#

No I mean, how come I did get a big gear level jump only by choosing a new job?

faint flare
#

Samurai gets given i115 starting geae

warm snow
#

Starting armor they give you is item level 115

little swift
#

the only factor is that msq gear only gives you whats on level

#

and not opening the i90 coffer is also a big hit to ilvl

clever ether
#

Its about twice as much gear level as I have gotten all this time playing warrior to 50

little swift
#

so once you opened teh samurai stuff your left side was a lot stronger

pseudo quartz
#

Do your level 50 job quest for warrior, and you should get a coffer of better gear

warm snow
little swift
#

again if you opened teh lv50 job quest reward coffer, it would have awarded you with i90 gear

#

and that would have shored up the difference

warm snow
#

Jobs added after a Realm reborn are balanced expecting you to buy gear around that level while levelling them

little swift
#

it wouldn't have fully covered teh difference

#

but it would at least make sense

clever ether
#

I went from zero to hero at the same level just a different job šŸ˜„

little swift
#

if you aren't going equip better gear of course there's going to be a difference

clever ether
#

I always picked the best gear possible on the warrior šŸ™‚

faint flare
#

Well at 37 at 50, you're not

#

You're given i90 gear at 50

warm snow
#

Provided you do your job quests

clever ether
#

I mean I most likley havent done the quest etc for best gear. But all gear I came across I always picked best. So this gear level is a huge power jump for me

faint flare
#

I37 isnt even enough to access the last two base arr dungeon

clever ether
#

Im melting stuff doing MSQ now

glad ibex
#

Getting an error message while trying to download the patch how do you fix?

faint flare
#

They're your JOB queats

remote lintel
#

job quests are mandatory

faint flare
#

You're MEANT to be doing them

remote lintel
#

and dps do more dmg than tank

faint flare
#

Without them. You can't use stuff like Inner beast

#

And Infuriate

warm snow
#

Not actually mandatory but might as well be as most, including your very best skills are locked behind job quests

faint flare
#

And other important skills

warm snow
#

At least up to 70

clever ether
#

I did up to level 45 warrior class quest as far as im aware.

faint flare
#

Do the 50 one

warm snow
#

Your level 50

clever ether
#

Im samuraing now šŸ˜„

warm snow
#

That one especially gives a coffee of ilevel 90 gear

clever ether
#

Im more confident not tanking atm

tacit venture
#

Hi, is smoked chicken one of the better foods to eat in general? (I use MCH) Or is there a better food for MCH ?

faint flare
#

Yes

warm snow
#

It's the best general food

tacit venture
#

ah okay cool thanks

faint flare
#

Unless you need morw speed or something, everyone uses chicken

warm snow
#

Some jobs like blm want lalaf- I mean potato salad but that's more an exception to the rule

tacit venture
#

curious, is the reason why it's the best is cause of the crit hit?

warm snow
#

Pretty much

tacit venture
#

wouldn't there be something else that gave crit hit + maybe direct hit or dex?

warm snow
#

Everything wants more crit

actually, wait, wtf
i enable it and i keep repeating the same animation over n over

hm so on the question of consumption, which potion is currently best used during MCH rotation? 30s duration dex pot?

Yeah

Until we inevitably get a grade 5 one or whatever the next upgrade will be in ew

tacit venture
#

ooh okay cool

little swift
#

nah they'll be renamed to something else probably

#

and it'll be grade 1 of that

warm snow
#

Wonder how tinctures will be after stats squish

#

But not a discussion for here

little swift

they're still % based

so it'll work just fine

Then there'll be an option for remove

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ

'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.

For base classes

#

You will

if he's 41 he won't have access to any non base classes

!faq mounts

zinc orbitBOT
#
Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

Thank you. Found it

lilac phoenix

hello! I downloaded FF today and I'm already 6 hours into it. I just have a question:

it seems like the main focus of the game is the story. As someone that doesn't care much about that, how's the end game content after finishing the story? Is the market active enough where you can flip things, maybe craft for profit?

modest igloo
#

good, yes, yes

#

story is a big draw tho

#

if it aint your thing this might not be the mmo for you

rough fossil
#

Oh, I asked about this earlier but I just saw on Yoshi P’s interview that the Ishgard celebration will be for a fixed period of time. Does that mean I need to haul ass and rush through MSQ if I want to see it?

#

The Live Letter that introduced it implied it was a monthly event or something similar

#

Lemme see if I can find the source text

I definitely don't care about the story, but I liked how the games starts from lvl 1 instead of it being unbearable until you reach end game like WoW

stray carbon
#

is summoner really hard to get used to compared to other classes?

#

ive heard horror stories from some of my friends about it

warm snow
#

No harder than any other class

#

It's just awkward to optimize

#

Also people tend to learn either summoner or scholar since they share exp and as a result its they tend to lack the learned understanding of the others kit

heavy wadi
#

it's hard in the respect that it's... rather different to play than others

stray carbon
#

i just wanted to get into a blm-esque class and summoner seemed closest to what i wanted

warm snow
#

Not really imho

#

There's no casters like blm

stray carbon
#

ig

remote lintel
#

what about blm did you want

stray carbon
#

the managment of resources type of feel

#

like how ice and fire phases work

#

i like that feel

remote lintel
#

thats not really resource management

obsidian patio
#

Red Mage does a fair bit of management with their procs and manas

remote lintel
#

if you want switching between stuff then rdm and paladin might work

stray carbon

ig ill look into rdm then

@obsidian patio aren't there like ports you need to open or something?

maybe you have a firewall issue

obsidian patio

I’m not a PC player so I don’t know all the ins and outs. :/

topaz python
#

@obsidian patio I am gonna take a look into ports

#

@tropic bear do you have any specific examples?

#

things to check?

tropic bear
#

just spitballing man, maybe check to see if your windows defender is throwing up alerts, or try rerunning the launcher in admin mode

#

but honestly I would just reset your router

smoky gyro
#

Hey so uh I don't really know if that's where I should be asking this but I'll try my luck anyways KasumiDerp

I'm trying to play the free trial for ff14 but I'm only getting this error msg even tho the game worked fine a week ago; "This service account does not have a valid FINAL FANTASY XIV license for this platform or your subscription has expired."

Am I doing something wrong or am I just not allowed to play the free trial now ? CSMKobeniPain or maybe I'm just being dumb

topaz python
#

@smoky gyro what platform?

smoky gyro
#

PC

remote lintel
#

windows or steam

topaz python
#

^

smoky gyro
#

uh windows

remote lintel
#

are you trying to use the steam launcher?

wintry chasm
#

Do you have the link to where you downloaded the game?

smoky gyro
wintry chasm
#

Because you need to specifically download the free trial launcher

#

Not the normal one

#

It sounds like you got the normal one

#

And that's why it's mad because you're meant to have the full game for that

smoky gyro

I mean I might've downloaded both somehow and launched the wrong one today but the game worked a week ago

wintry chasm

!faq freetrial

wintry chasm

I mean....did you download both by accident?

manic flare
#

why is shinryu such a popular PF trial

obsidian patio
#

Probably the crafting material for glowy weapons

rich bay
#

The normal client will overwrite the free trial one if you install both, a solution is to reinstall the game with the correct launcher.

smoky gyro
#

I guess I'll reinstall it but I didn't install anything ff14 related since last week so I'm kinda confused

why would it suddenly stop working

Just finished ocean fishing for the first time and got no scrips, is this normal?

There's no best or anything like that. You mostly join for the social aspect

You can change hair and tattoo for a pittance once you unlock the stylist

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

how do i do double limit breaker?

do i just hold down the button?

ohhh i see ok

what the LB is based on how many bars are full

warm snow
#

How many bars is based on party and current situation

young delta
#

i see. i wasnt sure how to use them but i remember the mechanic

warm snow
#

4-7 party members = 1 bar
Full 8 = 2 bars

In a boss fight +1 bar

#

If you want more info weskalber has a good video on youtube

young delta
#

no thats more than enough i appreciate it

#

here's a super newbie question. how do i repair my stuff again? there's blacksmiths right?

#

are they in every town and have a symbol on the map?

little swift
#

yes its a hammer icon

warm snow
#

Hammer symbol on map

young delta
#

ohh i see perfect lol

#

i should look before i ask questions lol

warm snow
#

If you're a crafter you can repair your own gear with dark matter

#

Which is better

young delta
#

oh word

warm snow
#

If you repair your own gear you technically overcap its durability. So if a sword is down to 15% and you repair it yourself it'll have 115% durability to wear down before it breaks. (it will still only display 100% durability while overcapped) npc repairs will only restore gear to 100%

leaden ginkgo
warm snow
#

Yeah the game doesn't really explain it. But the more you know šŸŽµ

#

Oh and as a result its also cheaper

hollow violet
#

What's this icon by a player mean?

i know it may sound dumb but does the Delubrum haircut changes your shape of face slightly?

miqotes with that all look the same

raven sage

I don't think so

#

miqote aren't exactly the best comparison for that though

faint flare
#

Especially since most look like generic cat girl #65

little swift

Different hair also frames your face differently based on colour and other factors

leaden ginkgo

Can confirm all miqo faces look the same anyways, so it's really hard to even tell

strong saddle

For leveling up lancer. I heard there's so many types of "jumps" how would I know which is useful

Blue quest near/at the astro guild. It will tell you why you cant pick it up if you can't

You probably already accepted the quest and now just need to equip the astrolabe

leaden ginkgo

is there a place i can check if i accepted a quest in the past

Journal

leaden ginkgo

is the astrolabe the same as the astrologian

That’s their weapon

ok so if i have the soul crystal called astrologian than what

twilit arch

equip the weapon that was also given

leaden ginkgo

the star globe?

twilit arch

its called star globe, should be in the weapon section of your armoury chest

leaden ginkgo

ok than wut

boreal storm

Weapon + soul stone = job

the unlock for rival wings is in the wolf's den

The map Astralagos has been put on hiatus for a few years now

Rival Wings has two maps, Astragalos and Hidden Gorge.

its been using hidden gorge for a few years, as tessia noted

leaden ginkgo

will i able to get the gorilla mount

What's a good dungeon for a level 38 character? I want to start running more dungeons but all the ones I've unlocked so far are level 20-ish

worthy basin

main stats > sub stats, right?

mystic lily
#

The gap in dungeons is pretty big, so just keep doing the MSQ for now

wind dragon
#

what does MSQ stand for?

mystic lily
#

Tho, at 38 you should eventually have access to curtters cry

wind dragon
#

Yeah I got some new white mage abilities I want to try out, but I feel like level 20 dungeons will cap my abilities so I can' tuse htem

mystic lily
#

There's also a bunch of dungeons locked behind sidequests and such iirc

wind dragon

and the gear would be low level wouldn't it?

strong saddle
#

Main Story Quest @wind dragon

mystic lily

Don't worry about gear at all

ok cool

twilit arch

ideally want to do cutter's cry

since its 38-40

wind dragon

Ok I'll go for that one

There's also Brayflox longstop which is 35

wind dragon
#

I just want to try out the new abilities I have and work on my healing skill

#

and of course level

mystic lily
#

Then yeah, sunken temple of quarn, cutters cry or brayflox longstop. Brayflox has the added advantage of being pretty easy to masspull in

twilit arch
#

brayflox is 32-34

honest anvil
#

just do your highest level dungeon

mystic lily
#

Ah

#

Yeah, i misread

wind dragon
#

When I played WOW I found addons helped to teach teh dungeon mechanics.. does FFXIV have something like that? I heard this game doesn't support addons? Is it important to know the mechanics like in WOW?

mystic lily
#

No addons

#

All abilities will have markers

#

Where they will hit

gloomy ice
#

It is important to know mechanics but almost everything has visible markers and effects.

wind dragon
#

Yeah I noticed it's pretty easy to anticipate things since it's so vividly telegraphed in this game

mystic lily
#

So learn what the market means and you're gucchi

#

marker*

wind dragon
#

lol ok thanks

#

I'll try cutters, it sounds level appropriate

mystic lily
#

Arrows pointing towards you above your head means you stack

#

That's a shared damage mechanic

wind dragon
#

stack is like bunch up close to the otehr players right?

mystic lily
#

Yeah

wind dragon
#

kk

mystic lily
#

But the game fairly gently introduces new mechanics gradually

vernal urchin
#

You don't really see stack markers until later

#

Level 50 and up

mystic lily
#

Yeah, most low level mechanics are just ground Aoes and the occasional charge mechanic

#

In general

delicate field
#

how do you see that someone's limit break is ready?

strange coral

It's shared for the whole party. Your limit break meter is theirs as well.

twilit arch
#

yep

strange coral
#

Yep

twilit arch
#

once the lb is used, the bars deplete

strange coral

Alliance raid can use 3, one for each party

Not always but usually

If you have a job at 80 it’s easy to grind ARR primal materials

I have PLD at 70

#

Do you get second chance points for any duty with new member or just the ones on the WT board?

obsidian patio
#

Any duty with new people

queen yoke
#

I guess I could join of those parties grinding for the mount?

#

I’m constantly amazed and thankful that there are almost always new Praetorium folks

kill two birds with one stone

#

You can solo most of them as a properly geared 70 tank

queen yoke
#

I see

vernal urchin
#

Ramuh and ifrit are really the only problem fights since you can get a lot of vuln stacks quickly with ifrit

#

And ramuh just does a lot of damage in general

obsidian patio
#

Ramuh does a lot less if you grab 3 lightning balls

hi people, I am planning to move DC from crystal to elemental, any suggestions which server I should go to? (I like making Gil, maybe most active mb?)

obsidian patio
#

Tonberry or Kujata for other English speakers

terse grail
#

at level 70 you cant just braindead hit the boss for some of them, youll have to do a few mechanics here and there

#

in regards to soloing ARR EX trials

#

so i read a guide saying that most of sch healing is done oGCD but i feel like the majority of the time im using adlo and succor

delicate field
#

Can you pick up "For want of a memory" with your level 80, then switch to a level 71 and do FATES in Bozja and still get Tortured Memories as drops?

candid ruin
#

Unless someone urgently needs a heal

twilit arch
#

yes @delicate field

delicate field
#

sweet thx

candid ruin
#

am i doing it right? i try to leave aether gauge heals for emergencies

delicate field
#

use Excog often too

obsidian patio
#

Your GCD heals are generally your last resort

analog gate
#

do the reverse, use aetherflow heals whenever anyone needs healing
adlo and succor are your emergency heals

obsidian patio
#

Aether flow is a free resource to use every minute

faint flare
#

Off global heals aren't oh shit buttons

#

In short

#

If an emergency is happening then you already fucked up cause you could have prevented it

candid ruin
#

but when the tank has pulled like three stacks i cant just use oGCD because at best i can use like 6 lustrates?

faint flare
#

That goes along way

#

That means those adlos you would have used are now art of wars

#

Which means the pack is dying faster

#

Thus the tank will take less damage

#

Thus you heal less

#

Thus save mana

mystic lily
#

Scholar also used to rely abit on pre-shielding, is that still the case?

faint flare
#

Pre pull adlos are good cause you'll get the mana back

mystic lily
#

Like fish for a crit to build up a large shield

#

Before pull

faint flare
#

Nah you dont fish

mystic lily
#

Gotcha

obsidian patio
#

I only do like 2-3 prepull before I give up on a crit

faint flare
#

If you get a crit lo randomly its nice but dont burn all your mana fishing

mystic lily
#

Something i'd also do was for big AoE's i'd put up a shield as welll, but this was in stormblood

faint flare
#

Adloing yourself to deploy is a very good trick

#

That not many people use

mystic lily
#

Yeah

candid ruin
#

how is that better than just adlo'ing the tank though?

faint flare
#

Because its a free shield

mystic lily
#

Yep

faint flare
#

You're not using deplou for anything in dungeons

#

You basically giving them 2 shields

#

Whule you're spamming AoW

candid ruin
#

I only really use deployment tactics if i have a crit adlo

faint flare
#

Doesn't matter

#

Free shield

mystic lily
#

Indeed

faint flare
#

Thats stronger than succor by base

mystic lily
#

Also adloing yourself means that the shield won't get eaten by tank damage

faint flare
#

GCDs are your last resort

#

In combat

#

Use *all your other tools before hand

mystic lily
#

Adloing the tank can result in a weaker shield before you can deploy it

faint flare
#

Which means doing neat tricks like deploying off yourself onto the tank

#

It gives you more Time to AoW spam

mystic lily
#

Is AoW new?

twilit arch
#

sort of

mystic lily
#

Just swapped to scholar, and neat it has an AoE ability now

twilit arch
#

before 5.0 is was called miasma 2 and also applied a dot

mystic lily
#

Ah!

faint flare
#

New ability to replace miasma 2

#

Cant have those nasty healers having more than 1 dot you know

mystic lily
#

Haha yeah!

#

Still, having a flat AoE ability is pretty respectable over a dot

#

Maybe i should refresh myself on scholar since i just got summoner to 80

native lark
#

hey guys, what's the best way to get levels? I'm at lvl 46 currently and the next quest is at 49

mystic lily
#

Do daily leveling roulette

#

Then pop into a few dungeons to fill what's needed

native lark
#

is it this one? it's pretty low level no?

#

or does the level not matter

remote lintel
#

thats the min lvl to do it

mystic lily
#

It's the level you access it at

still flicker
#

hey my friend used my friend code for recruitment, and i have received the feathers in the mail but he hasn't gotten anything. Do i need to use his code as well?

native lark
#

ohhh I see

#

thanks

remote lintel
#

@still flicker he gets rewards after he buys days

still flicker
#

oh he has the complete edition, does he need to get a sub?

remote lintel
#

yes

mystic lily
#

Yes

still flicker
#

ah i see

mystic lily
#

Then, do your level appropiate dungeon to fill in whats needed

#

Or fates

faint flare
#

Dungeons, fates while queing

mystic lily
#

Yep

#

Aurum vale unlocks at 47, it's a pretty good dungeon strictly speaking xp

native lark
#

hmm, I'll look into that once im at 47

#

thanks

daring raptor

onyx anchor
#

are there specific merchants who will buy certain items (armour, weapons, etc) at higher prices?

twilit arch
#

nope

#

Well there is one but it has a weekly limit

little swift
#

the listed shop selling price is the price an npc will buy it for

twilit arch
#

the doman restoration will buy items for a higher price, but only up to 40k a week

gilded forge
#

What's the quickest way to level from 70 to 71? (Preferably without a dungeon)

faint flare
#

Without dungeons it would just be do your pixies then go farm fates really

#

Otherwise go spam castrum abania

gilded forge
#

Where would be a good place to fate spam 70?

faint flare
#

Lower khlosuia, right side of amr arang

twilit arch
#

lakeland fates are also decent, they're 71

gilded forge
#

We'll have a look, thank you

broken fable
#

Today I've learned that I prefer a solo FC. What are the requirements to get one? You need 3 other people right? And then you can kick them out?

twilit arch
#

ayep, ask 3 people to sign your fc petition, then they are free to leave/be kicked out

You are the best. Thank you!

onyx anchor
#

How do you join a FC?

upper zodiac
#

Has anyone ever tried playing with a Switch Pro Controller on PC?

remote lintel
#

@onyx anchor you have to be invited

#

@upper zodiac yes

upper zodiac
#

When I started playing the controls were ... not good. Is it common for people to have to heavily fudge with the controls to get it to work?

#

Like the left stick is controlling the camera and the right stick is controlling the mouse, several other buttons do nothing etc

remote lintel
#

i launch the game through steam so steam takes care of the calibrating

upper zodiac

same here
