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.

The buffs only differentiate between "ranged" and "melee", not physical and magical.

Good day everyone. I have a question.
https://youtu.be/bB_MAO5yPw8
I have seen this video where a white mage called Celi Lucis saved it's party by surviving against Ifrit, and resurrecting the whole team, and now, 7 years passed from that video, and I would like to ask how good is the white mage job today. Is it considered the best healer job, ot hast it been nerfed?

Playing The Bowl of Embers (Hard) for only the second time, we all get caught out by Meteor, and only one White Mage survives... what happens next is crazy. I'm still in awe, even now...

Celi, we love you! Haha~

Levelling through sidequests is getting tedious

Is there a server on Primal data center where marketplace items are generally cheaper than the other servers?

open coral
#

Why would you level through side quests?

faint flare
open coral
#

That's the worst possible way to level.

#

Sidequests are basically just there for extra lore. They're not meant to give lots of leveling xp.

Oh, is there a better way outside of roulettes? Still new to the game

On the brightside im enjoying the rak'tika greatwood

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.

if i'm still on free trial can i not obtain the champion's lance (needed for the gungir weapon quest)

faint flare
#

You craft it

glossy flare
#

not via the mb at least

slate arrow
#

You'll have to level your own crafters

glossy flare
#

would have to craft it yourself

vestal oracle
#

ok ty vm @slate arrow

#

do i have to get to a certain crafting level to craft it?

strange coral
#

#

how long does that take

that sounds like it will take forever

faint flare
#

With ishgard restoration, not long

#

Maybe a day or so

radiant plank
#

where can you check accepted hunt board marks? Do i have to actually remember the location of each of them?

slate arrow
#

And then you'll have to go and gather the materials to craft the lance so

glossy flare
#

you specifically need Carpenter at 50 btw

glossy flare
#

and yeah, getting the materials will require leveled gatherers

#

because again, you can't just buy them from the mb

radiant plank
glossy flare
#

@normal plank Just for the record, the relic weapons are in no way necessary and are a very huge grind to do, especially if you have to level crafters and gatherers to get even started.

How difficult is memoria misera (EX) compared to ||hades|| (EX)?

i heard the dying gasp ex is pretty easy so

Mostly just asking if any of the Odin stuff becomes available anywhere else

heavy wadi
#

hades ex is pretty easy because there's a cheese for the second phase

#

(and hades itself isn't a spoiler, so)

the only tough part about it is the add phase

as someone who struggled with misera, hades ex is easier for sure

Is playing with a Xbox One controller on PC generally a better experience for FFXIV than a Xbox 360 controller?

¯_(ツ)_/¯

your controller, your preference

Same controller style

#

Both exs are easy now

tropic frigate
#

Frankly I have no idea, mine is starting to age

leaden ginkgo

Does it need a static with good coordination, or just a normal PF? For misera

tropic frigate

So was considering to buy a new one

Pf

#

All extremes are PFable

slate arrow

Personally, I'd look at the Xbox Series controller now since it has USB-C but the D-Pad might need some time getting used to

i play with a switch pro controller and it works fine so

use whatever

i mean you dont really equip the mog station items directly because they dont have stats

jagged crow
#

They do have stats

jolly sorrel
#

What's the go-to for crafting lv70 > 80?

rough fossil
#

I’m kind of embarrassed to ask at this point but can someone explain item level syncing in a nutshell? Like if I have two pieces of equipment with the same level but one has higher stats, will that one still have higher stats when synced?

jolly sorrel
#

Most duties have a "level" they will "sync to". That means that any item that is higher than the level its going to be synced to, will have their stats reduced.

jagged crow
#

So I should do it like this?

#

or glam the gear the other way around

jolly sorrel
#

So for instance, if you bring a level 70 helmet into a level 20 dungeon, it'll be synced down to level 20

faint flare
#

The bonuses are highlighted to show they're active

slate arrow
rough fossil
slate arrow
#

it's why TEA BiS can work in UwU and UCoB

jagged crow
#

@faint flare Where is it highlighted?

slate arrow
#

because you're still capped on crit and roughly capped on your substats

faint flare
#

Where it says the bonuses

jolly sorrel
#

They are flattened out to the same stats, however, I do believe that higher... uh.. rarity items still sync out better. That is to say, green items will be better than white items of the same (synced) ilvl.
Gotta have someone confirm or deny me on this though.

faint flare
#

They're lit up

jagged crow
#

It looks the same if I unequip one part of it

little swift
#

Just where it comes from

#

Thats not relevant to sync either

slate arrow
jolly sorrel
#

Oh, very well. I recall shenanigans with item rarities, materia caps, and level syncs from back when. Maybe I just misunderstood.

little swift
#

If you item is high enough ilvl to surpass the substat limit it will sync to the highest substat cap available to the ilvl that you're synced to

jagged crow
faint flare
#

Its extremely not worth it

#

You're paper with it on

#

You have no stats

jagged crow
#

I am only level 6

faint flare
#

You wont kill stuff with it in a few levels

rough fossil
#

Hm okay or here’s another way of asking: if I’m being synced to say 100 and my current gear is 150, will equipping different gear at like ilvl 200 with better stats result in any change while synced?

jagged crow
#

My question was does the buff work as glam

jolly sorrel
open coral
#

Like if you use the item that gives the buff as a glamour over another piece? No.

little swift
#

Higher ilvl gear will sync down to your stats more up to a certain point

jagged crow
#

Why would they make an outfit that gives a 30% xp boost that is useless after level 5

faint flare
#

To incentivise sales

rough fossil
#

Okay, so better gear is still better

faint flare
#

Even though its a trap

little swift
#

Tael thats just 1 comment

#

Theres no confirmation

slate arrow
#

Unless it's sourced directly from The Balance I don't trust random one-off subreddit posts

jolly sorrel
#

I agree, it's hardly anything to go on. Nonetheless, it at least confirms it wasnt a fluke of my mind, I had indeed heard it somewhere before. Perhaps it was wrong back then too.

open coral
#

The commenter there refers to "rarity" but really only means "gear type".

#

They're still talking about the same white/green/blue ranking.

little swift
#

It should still sync the same regardless of colour

open coral
#

Which still doesn't refer to actual rarity.

little swift
#

As long as your gear is higher than the synced stat cap it brings it down to said cap when synced

#

Colour theory is feelycraft at best

open coral
#

True.

little swift
#

There is a threshold for how far past you have to be

#

But thats not really math that matters outside of ultimates

rough fossil
#

Oh so better gear isn’t necessarily better? (Just using random numbers here) if the stat cap is 50 dmg and I have a weapon with 60 and 70 dmg, they will both be 50?

slate arrow
#

depending on the sync, you could be at 55 potentitally

rough fossil
#

(And do melds matter?)

twilit arch
#

for most content, no melds don't

slate arrow
#

since the sync cap is 135, 275, and 405 for ARR, HW, and StB

twilit arch
#

but for something like TEA, yes they do

jolly sorrel
little swift
#

Ilvl syncing ignores melds anyways

#

Yes thats how it works tael

jolly sorrel
#

Alright, I see.

twilit arch
#

so when ultimates are still current ish content, and you don't have a high enough ilvl to power the sync, the BiS are going to use gear that's appropriate to that ilvl rather than use higher ilvl gear

#

so like for the older ultimates, the gap is big enough that not having melds is fine

#

but for like TEA since its still current, you want to use appropriate ilvl gear to get the meld bonus

glossy flare
#

Does cll pop the first time on a set timer? (assuming enough people that have access are actually present) Or does it just happen randomly and then every hour?

rough fossil
#

Okay, thanks all! Phew

jolly sorrel
#

Oh yes, I remember now! Back then, the colour thing was about materia melding. Every item has a stat cap which you can't meld past, and higher "colours" had default stats closer to the cap. But the cap itself was based on the ilvl entirely.

#

It was before stat caps were visible.

twilit arch
#

CLL is on a fixed timer

glossy flare
#

Which is?

twilit arch
#

iirc 60minutes

rough fossil
#

Ew they didn’t tell you if you were capping before?

glossy flare
#

So it always pops the first time 60 minutes after the instance opens?

#

Not for you of course, the time it's created

twilit arch
#

yeah in a fresh instance its 60 minutes after the instance opens

glossy flare
#

thanks

modest igloo
#

i dont think you can unsync ultimates ever

twilit arch
#

you can't

modest igloo
#

ucob will always be capped at 345 yeah

#

the wording made it look like you could

#

sorry bout that

sturdy hemlock
glossy flare
#

Heh, that is good to know

heavy wadi
#

They also said they're reducing the CLL timer in 5.5 or 5.5x, I can't recall which

sturdy hemlock
#

You can also usually tell when a Castrum will pop via the oldest person in an instance

#

if you open up the party list and then go to Adventurer List, scroll down to the bottom

heavy wadi
#

or you can ask in the instance, as well - there's generally at least one person who knows when the last castrum was

glossy flare
#

yeah, was just curious about the modalities

sturdy hemlock
#

An instance starts at 180 minutes so just remove 60 minutes from that and you can see if a Castrum popped or not

glossy flare
#

because I really don't want to run crystal tower for relics

#

I'd rather do nothing while waiting for castrum instead

heavy wadi
#

castrum's quicker, anyways, since it gives you 5 per run

Where can I go to find a good linkshell for raid learning in a drama free cool environment?
Reddit? Forums?

Can also look for raider streamers in your data center

wintry chasm
# lone spruce How do I tell when a house goes up?

You can't tell when a house can be bought until you try to buy it but you can tell a house is empty because it's icon on the map will be that of a gavel and when you go to select wards the name of the plot won't be that of who owns it but will just be a gil value

I was, I heard LB + LT/RT is the way to go for enemy switching

#

just left and right d-pad will do

harsh torrent
#

also, I just didnt understand how casters work, apparently I NEED to face the enemy im casting at, unlike just tapping my buttons like Warrior do

remote lintel

you should have auto face on by default

so that took me off my groove

remote lintel
#

you do need to keep facing the enemy while casting

open coral
#

You must be facing the enemy to start casting, but if they move behind you while you're mid-cast the cast should still go off.

harsh torrent
#

maybe thats what it was

#

like I recall LITERALLY just walking 180 degrees from the enemy and still doing my attack

#

real smooth like

remote lintel
#

because auto facing lets you attack from any direction

faint flare
#

Because once the cast of a skill is finished, you can move

Animations have no baring

#

aight thanks

IDK if ill keep playing RDM tbh, I picked it cuz its an instant level 50, and I like the idea

glossy flare

of all the casters it is the easiest tbh

#

rotation is basically flowing by itself

harsh torrent
#

yeah it is

#

I think I expected more melee output

glossy flare
#

Yeah, it's still primarily a caster job

#

And your finisher combo does get longer with higher levels but it never gains more melee parts

#

just more instant big boom spells

does the starting gear suck?

thats all im using

damn no wonder

#

Well no/poor accessories

little swift
#

Just finish 2.0 and get some ironworks when you can otherwise you're fine

open coral

If so, then your job quests + MSQ should give you some decent gear.

As long as you have stuff

im nearly at 3.0

But for an alt job, then yeah. Ironworks at 50.

this is like the last few missions of 2.x iirc

its an alt job

first was warrior

Then get ironworks

is there any point in promoting above second serpent lieutenant?

obsidian patio
#

Captain has more glamours

#

I think a few items are locked behind first Lieutenant and captain for purchase

#

But for the most part 2nd Lieutenant has everything you really need

Hey guys I just finished the copied factory raid, and for the next quest I had to talk to one of the dwarves in the raid zone, but I left without talking to any

Can I go back someway?

If you grind your heart out it’s certainly doable but 2 weeks is a safer estimate

are the training regimens worth doing?

Yes

How is armory bonus calcualted?

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.

storm egret
#

huh i swear sometimes i get like

#

250%

obsidian patio
#

That’s probably the rested experience

#

!faq restedexp

zinc orbitBOT
#
Rested Experience FAQ

'Why does my EXP bar have some blue or faded yellow in it?'

That's Rested Experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.

'How much of a boost is it?'

The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.

Can anyone tell me if Zantetsuken flashes when you swing it or something?

I wanted to lvl up my fisher (lvl14 atm) and read that ocean fishing is pretty good. Also it was written to buy special ocean lures. Vendor has 4 different lures there Ragworm, Krill, Plump Worm and Versatile Lure. Which one should i buy to lvl up during ocean fishing?

warm snow
#

All 3 baits, and listen to which is best for each zone while ocean fishing

warm snow
#

Someone will usually say, if not research

cerulean schooner
#

wtf is ocean fishing

#

is that new, i'm a returner

remote lintel

exactly what it sounds like

humble belfry

How about Versatile Lure? Why its worth so much?

obsidian patio
#

Yeah it’s somewhat new

warm snow
#

Going out on a boat to fish in costal areas

#

Lures are reusable

Fishers go on a boat every 2 hours and fish up lot of stuff

humble belfry
#

ah ok

cerulean schooner
#

b o a t, love that kingdom hearts reference

thx

warm snow
#

And versatile lure can catch anything from level 1-70 fishing holes

obsidian patio

The versatile lure also works at all levels and all types of fishing hole

So it’s the lazy man’s bait

It works up to 80

What time i have to register for a boat? I see sailing schedule but no idea how long before i have to register

obsidian patio

Like within 10-15 minutes IIRC

The boats go every 2 hours, you have 15 mins after the hour to register

humble belfry
#

every 2 in game hours right?

raven sage
#

Real time

#

The schedule should be in your time as well

Also the boarding person will tell you how much time till the next boat

how do i unlock Master Recipes ?

twilit arch
#

need to buy the master books. 1-2 are gotten in mor dhona by exchanging an item, 3+ are bought with yellow scrips

gloomy ice
#

Recipe books 1 and 2 need you to craft a specific item and exchange in Mor Dhona. Books 3-8 are purchased with scrips at scrip vendors.

forest scarab
#

i have yellow scrips but i cant select the Master Recipes section

twilit arch
#

there's a bluequest in mor dhona called "just tooling around"

forest scarab
#

okii thanks <3

gloomy ice
#

There should also be a side quest there called Go West, Craftsman that unlocks the scrip vendor in Idyllshire. Doing that should unlock purchases of master books.

its actually just tooling around that's unlock for master books

so I'll be able to desynth these with 5.5 or are these items just locked and I'll need to get new ones before desynth ?

do I throw them away

need some help, I know everything should go highest ilvl regardless of stats... between these 3 - stacking crit on the rest of my gears. The head piece seem like to prefer Spell Speed. Whats' best? Would the Law's Order better with 5 materias?

Cryptlurker

twilit arch

you'll be able to augment cryptlurker in 5.5 with nuts and alliance tokens

little swift

if you can, try to prioritize higher ilvl

viscid fossil
#

Strange as it may sounds, if everyone should go for highest ilvl... then what are those stats (to show) meant for overall?

#

I mean SE should just high the stats numbers and show ilvl lol

faint flare
#

For comparing gear with equal ilvl

obsidian patio
#

And sometimes gear with lower item level with good slots can beat slightly higher item level

viscid fossil
#

That's all you need to know!

faint flare
#

There's rare few times lower ilvl is better

#

When higher ilvl has basically dead stats on it

viscid fossil

Yeah spell speed is dead for SMN.. so

#

trying to pick out more useful stats in overall

faint flare

Not entirely

assuming everything going as well as possible you won't gain dps by going down 30 ilvls

the difference in main stat alone is huge

augmenting the 510 gear means you can't overmeld it anymore

gritty oracle
viscid fossil
#

do you think bit more SS procs crit more often?

gleaming mist
#

if you want a better way of estimating the dps between item sets, you should use a dps calculator

faint flare
#

You need multiple, prolong tests

gleaming mist
#

can find them in the balance

faint flare
#

And not in SSS

#

SSS is garbage for testing dps

viscid fossil
#

what is SSS?

faint flare
#

Stone sky sea

viscid fossil
#

LOL

#

I'm testing on

#

I wasn't at SSS

#

I just gave a 2min timer run each

faint flare
#

Waaaaaaay too short

#

Thats literally one summoner rotation

viscid fossil
#

k

#

xD

faint flare
#

10mins minimum

#

Multiple times

#

To reduce crit rng variations

viscid fossil
#

I'll try that next time. I got to help my sister with her Bozjan thingy

faint flare
#

Cause that's fun :)

little swift
#

2min is too short a burst window

#

Can just adjust rotation to do more "dps"

#

Rather than actually doing a correct one

#

So you can fit you narrative better

faint flare
#

Especially with pet ghosting

#

That also can affect it

viscid fossil
#

oh how to avoid pet ghosting since you mentioned it?

sour spoke
#

Stand still

faint flare
#

Be very specific with your actions

#

And timings

sour spoke
#

Bahamut and Phoenix have a habit of ghosting if you move too far to fast

viscid fossil
#

me stand still? how is that affected?

faint flare
#

Demis priotises moving

viscid fossil
#

oh

faint flare
#

Which delays actions

#

Thus can ghost hits

sour spoke
#

And Egis also have the issue where they sometimes just dont do what you tell them to

faint flare
viscid fossil
#

Is that a bug ?

faint flare
#

Nope

sour spoke
#

Like having to wait 5 seconds for devotion to go off for whatever reason

#

No its intended

faint flare
#

Its just how fucking garbage the pet ai is

viscid fossil
#

Now I am wondering why ... i move a lot in fight that I shouldn't have

sour spoke
#

If you upload your log

faint flare
#

It will yell at you

#

For ghosting

sour spoke
#

You can use xivanalysis to see how much you missed

viscid fossil
#

thank you for the link

sour spoke
#

But generally

faint flare
#

You will pretty much always ghost 1 hit with moving with demis

sour spoke
#

Akhmorning is great ressource site for casters especially smns

viscid fossil
#

ghosting only affect baha and pheonix?

faint flare
#

No

sour spoke
#

Your egis alswell

faint flare
#

Egis as well

#

If you dismiss them before they do their actions

#

Its why you sometimes have 3 ruin stacks

#

Even though you spent all assaults

sour spoke
#

For example dont do egi attacks to go into bahamut because egis take a moment to use their assault

faint flare
#

Or devotion didn't go up

#

Or enkindle

sour spoke
viscid fossil
#

Ah ok, so it cancel out other attacks mid way?

faint flare
#

So

#

Pets work in a que

#

You give an order and it goes into a que

#

And it will take its sweet ass time doing it all

warm snow
#

And the queue goes in the trash if your pet goes away

faint flare
#

Its auto also goes into it

warm snow
#

Say you die or you turn it into a dragon

#

Or a bird

faint flare
#

Dismissing it cause that que to poof

#

With. O cooldowns refunded

#

ALL pets can ghost, not just summoner

viscid fossil
#

Ok I just read it on akh, because pet doesn't work like my own character animations, it has delays and overloading abilities will cause issue

sour spoke
#

Yes

#

Just stick to that for now

#

When you get more experienced you will see it more and more

#

And learn what causes it

warm snow
#

Say there's an enemy just at the edge of range and you manage to get off all 4 egi assaults before your summon reaches the enemy to actually use them. And say for example you step on a landmine and die

viscid fossil
#

So I have to watch the pet animations?

sour spoke
#

Yesn't

warm snow
#

Guess who has to wait for all their egi assaults to come back for 0 benefit

sour spoke
#

You can watch your Ruin 4 stacks

viscid fossil
#

I guess spamming... isn't helping on smn lol

#

I have been playing it wrong!

warm snow
#

It's fine, just don't die or summon bahamut/phoenix

sour spoke
#

Thats why there is a random Ruin 3 inside the SMN opener

faint flare
#

There's ALOT of little things

#

For Summoner

warm snow
#

Until you get all your ruin 4 stacks

faint flare
#

That's very specific

#

Just so pet's dont be fucking stupid

sour spoke
faint flare
#

Its why triple weave phoenix is a thing

sour spoke
#

SMN is one hell of a fun jump but an incredibly technical one because egis are trash

viscid fossil
#

is SMN most technical dps out there?

faint flare
#

Probably

sour spoke
#

I woulnt say most but its up there

#

But dont be discouraged

#

Learning the ins and outs is easier than it sounds

faint flare
#

One day pets will be fixed

#

Then they can add beast master

sour spoke
#

The people there are quite helpful

viscid fossil
#

can you triple weave with baha?

sour spoke
#

You shouldn't

radiant cairn
#

How do I find a certain server let's say Hyperion Crystal..??

sour spoke

But there isn't really a need for world specific discords

radiant cairn
#

I know I just jumped in the middle of yalls convo.... lol.sorry

#

Ohh ok always wanted to join a discord server with hyperion players only lol

warm snow
#

Most socialising on servers is fc stuff

faint flare
#

Cause GUESS WHAT, phoenix doesn't take commands when its casting everlasting flight, meaning you'll lost the first scarlet flame if you summon too late and hit the gcd immediately :)

little swift
#

Hyperion is on primal is it not

sour spoke
#

Swiftcast runi 3 can be replaced by ruin 2

viscid fossil
#

ah

faint flare
#

(second ruin 4 can be used in place for swift ruin)

#

The seconf r4 is usef there for raid buffs in opener

radiant cairn
#

U know I think u maybe right... primal

warm snow
faint flare
#

Otherwise it can be moved for swifted ruin

radiant cairn
#

Thanx

warm snow
#

#recruitment-primal

sour spoke
little swift
#

Triple weaving isn't ever encouraged because of how weaving works in this game

#

Theres also no reason to most of the time

sour spoke
#

Unless its for phoenix

little swift
#

Only really the cursed phoenix summon

#

Or turbo bard bloodletter procs

faint flare
#

And triple weave phoenix is the less ideal method

little swift
#

But even then just wait

sour spoke
#

Is it? I only trip weave phoenix

faint flare
#

Yes

sour spoke
#

But then again I have a very low ping

faint flare
#

Even with low ping its less ideal

#

Single is better cause no clipping

warm snow
#

One lag spike = clipping

#

Rip parse

leaden ginkgo
#

hey, I can't connect to the ffxiv forum, am I the only one ?

faint flare
#

I typically single weave it

sour spoke
#

I just checked again just to be sure

faint flare
#

Its precise timing

sour spoke
#

Its just the ping that can ruin it

manic flare
#

what is a gathering foray in PF?

#

and when would you use it?

sour spoke
#

Yoj can either do trip or single weave

warm snow
#

Just because you can triple weave doesn't necessarily mean you should get in the habit of jt

obsidian patio

leaden ginkgo
#

I see... I remember I reported one of my topic to ask to delete it, which was done as I can't find it anymore, but may I get banned from the forum or anything for that lol ?

little swift
#

If 1 lag spike kills your parse we have bigger problems tbh

sour spoke
#

I exclusivly trip weave phoenix and only because I can based on my low ping I was just stuck on the fact that it's supposed to be less ideal when both are a viable way of doing it just based on your ping

obsidian patio
#

If you were banned it would definitely tell you if so

#

Also IIRC you can delete your own posts/threads without needing to self-report

Is there a known set drop rate for cards from npc's or does it vary by match?

faint flare
#

No drop rates of anything are known

#

Outside of guaranteed stuff

Any rates are anadotal

Hello I have a problem maybe who of you already had that? I'm just DC because my router had to restart, and now I can no longer see who I open the client the logging window no matter how long I wait! I restarted the PC, reinstalled the game, but I can't get far because I got the same error antivirus made nothing ...

For the sake of practicing openers/rotations use a mana pot instead in that spot since they share a cooldown and are cheaper @civic flare

I'm trying to buy lighting crystals from the marketboard but it keeps telling me that I have insufficient inventory space.

#

I only have 3 lightning crystals left

#

And my main inventory has plenty of space.

twilit arch
#

how big is the stack you're trying to buy

rugged flicker
#

So what's the deal?

#

Ohhh

#

Hrmm

sly vector
#

i just started playing free trial, should i go till the end of free trial before purchasing

faint flare
#

You can

little swift
#

thats up to you

#

if you feel like you want to maximize use of the trial before you enter the license its fine as well

#

you can buy it now and just hold the code if its not ps4 license

faint flare
#

The trial limitations are primarily social...the biggest impact is gil limit and storage

sly vector
#

yea maybe ill decide when i hit limits on those, my gil pretty low rn since im just lvl 22 ish

#

not being to add friends kinda suck doe

hollow violet
#

Are all the hildebrand quests chained? If I'm in Kugane does he have a separate line that starts here or do I need to head back to ARR and do the entire chain?

They're chained yes

Ah Hildebrand! Denying me access to a triple triad opponent. Time to go back to vesper bay and pick you up again ^_^

#

Why you can't do ultimates unsynced?

remote lintel
#

because that would make them easier?

faint flare
#

So they keep their challenge

#

And not devalue the rewards

#

People would be pretty annoy if your casual grey parser ran around with legend titles without putting in the hundreds of hours to prog it

How do I hide the chat log in gpose?

^- Answer: Right click one of the tabs at the bottom of the log

#

Will they remove the weekly cap for tomestones in 6.0?

faint flare
#

Yes, cause there will be a new capped tome at 90

#

Revelation and allegory go away in 6.0 and you'll be able to convert them to poetics

oblique yew
#

Go away? So I won't be able to purchase cryptluker gear?

faint flare
#

With poetics

twilit arch
#

you'll be able to purchase them with poetics

faint flare
#

Everything gets converted to poetics

oblique yew
#

Oh

faint flare
#

Just like Scaevan

twilit arch
#

6.0 will introduce new end-game tomestones

faint flare
#

The cycle continues

oblique yew
#

I didn't know about that

faint flare
#

This is the gear cycle that's stuck around since heavensward basically

oblique yew
#

Ahhh, is that why the WoL was so sad when the exarch pointed at the tomestones in the beginning?

faint flare
#

Not sad. Just disappointed/exacerbated

oblique yew
#

Because of the grind?

#

Got it

faint flare
#

Its the "oh god this again"

jade quartz
#

The WoL was unhappy to see tomestones because they know that means they'll have to grind for more.

faint flare
#

Face

jade quartz
#

It's a meta joke.

faint flare
#

There's no escape from the tomes

oblique yew
#

I'm starting to feel the pain

faint flare

Tomes come in, tomes cycles out

Thus says the great forumla

#

i got pass level 20, do i have to keep continuing the story before i can unlock the chocobo/mount thing

remote lintel
#

yes

faint flare
#

Story locks EVERYTHING

open coral
#

MSQ is the answer to almost every "how do I unlock this" question.

faint flare
#

Your level means nothing

open coral
#

When we talk about needing specific levels to unlock content, 9 times out of 10 we're talking about MSQ level, not character level.

#

;-; no mount yet then

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.

is there something that i get by finishing the main questline inside the firmament?

#

aside from the orchestrion

and the art appraiser

tidal yarrow
#

is there a way to look at the search info of someone while not in game?

#

like on the lodestone or something i was thinking

sleek roost
#

Yeah lodestone has it

#

Or Kupo's lodestone/classes commands which you can use in #kupo-bot-spam

nimble wing
#

I know there's parsers, but is there a way to get a realtime DPS display somehow?

remote lintel
#

it is displaying it in real time?

nimble wing
#

oh the parsers do?

ACT/Parsing

Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.

ACT/FFLogs Guide

Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.

nimble wing
#

I thought it was an after-the-fact log parser

sleek roost
#

It's real time

nimble wing
#

awesome, thanks

remote lintel
#

theres a window that overlays on top of your game where you can see the numbers

sleek roost
#

After the fact is if you choose to upload your logs to fflogs to compare them to other players

nimble wing
#

that makes me super happy, I understand dps meters can be used against people, but they sure are nice for personal use

Hey what do you do with High Allagan Aetherstones and Neo Aetherstones from Coils of Bahamut exactly?

gloomy ice
#

They're used for crafting cosmetic versions of the armor from those raids. Safe to sell, if you've no intention to use those glamours.

manic flare
#

in shinryu ex we why we sometimes wipe in the add phase (the phase with the dragon adds and proximity markers)?

patent saddle
#

300000 gil is the max to have on you in the trial so where should I spend it I heard you could convert it to allegan pieces?

manic flare
#

you can buy gear from the npc shop

patent saddle
#

Ya I’ll up all my classes but I’ll probably max out on gil alot

manic flare
#

gil isn't important really

#

especially for the free trial, u dont have any good gil sinks

do they nerf/buff jobs for every patch or is it just every expansion?

little swift
#

they do adjustments to jobs during the expansion usually on major patches

#

and then jobs get revamped/touched up/new stuff at the start of every expansion

#

reworks are rare but do happy too

leaden ginkgo
#

what do the neir raids give you and are they worth doing if you are trying to reach gear cap and currently have full exarchic

warped nest
#

The upcoming Nier raid will drop i520 gear

#

Each of the three Nier raid will reward you with a token when you clear them

oblique yew
#

wtf

#

another weekly cap?

remote lintel
#

thats how endgame gearing works

warped nest
#

Three of these token can be traded for upgrade item to upgrade the Revelation tomestone crypt lurker gears

oblique yew
#

as someone who just wants to finish everything in few days and then move on to next thing or next game, this make me waanna cry

leaden ginkgo
#

ok so crypt lurker is from tomes and edenmorne from savage ?

warped nest
#

You can just move on, Antihero

leaden ginkgo
#

after the 13th, edenmorne will still be best or a new level of gear will come ?

warped nest
#

When Endwalker drops, you can buy all these with Poetic tomestone

#

There's no new item level

#

That's it for Shadowbringers

vocal shell
#

Only a new relic weapon

warped nest
#

535 weapons and 530 gears are the max

leaden ginkgo
#

ok so i won’t be left behind everyone will still be doing savage 😢

remote lintel
#

you wont need to do savage to get the highest ilvl

warped nest
#

And getting highest ilvl is just an optional goal

#

It is not required for anything

#

(aside from Ultimate)
