#

oh it costs money..

#

of course it does lol

slate arrow
#

Old Moonfaire event item so yes

#

it's only like 3 dollars tho

manic flare
#

is there going to be new mogstation items next week too?

slate arrow
#

no

#

maybe

#

dataminers will find future mogstation items but you won't be able to obtain said items until later

#

Usually though the only stuff that aren't added on a schedule are the KR/CN commissioned items

#

Everything else is usually added in a year after the event is ran

manic flare
#

they dont coincide with patches?

slate arrow
#

except for level and job skips, not really?

remote lintel
#

no?

#

they add items whenever they feel like it

manic flare
#

right but doesn't adding items require change of codebase

remote lintel
#

its likely they add items with patches and just make it available whenever

slate arrow
#

it's added in ahead of time usually yes

remote lintel
#

the chocobo carriage was in the game but wasnt available for a time

slate arrow
#

but to actually purchase you gotta wait for mog/FFXIV Online Store :p

remote lintel
#

same thing they do with events

slate arrow
#

It's just good live service practice

fading helm
#

how do u like go underwater?

#

or can i do that yet

remote lintel
#

you unlock it in stormblood

How big?

crystal bluff
#

up to 15% i think?

real solstice
obsidian patio
#

Wrong reply >.<

leaden ginkgo
#

Hmmm

obsidian patio
#

But for those levels you can spam dungeons to level up

leaden ginkgo
#

Does clan rank matter?

obsidian patio
#

You have leveling roulette too for the daily bonus

#

6 let’s your FC get housing, 8 let’s you have 2 FC actions active at once.

#

15 is the highest rank for increasing FC chest storage

true elm
#

yeah did the daily already

obsidian patio
#

Then spamming dungeons is your best bet

#

If you don’t have it, you can unlock the level 44 dungeon Dzemael Darkhold in Ishgard at the observatorium

modest igloo
#

you mean corthas? they cant get into ishgard

true elm
#

thanks ill try that

obsidian patio
#

That’s not part of Ishgard

#

Or rather, part of the HW areas

modest igloo
#

they are at 46 MSQ, so it might be confusing since they cant get into ishgard

true elm
#

yeah looks like corthas

obsidian patio
#

No wait I see my error now ;-;

I meant Coerthas Central Highlands

modest igloo
#

understandable

#

i wonder what the justification was before 5.3 in game why you could fly in western but not central coerthas lol

obsidian patio
#

ARR zones didn’t have flying until then

wintry chasm
#

^

#

Flying was introduced in HW

obsidian patio
#

The zones weren’t originally designed for it.

#

Hey! I'm a new player and I have been on trial for a while. So now I am deciding should I buy a game or not. If I buy the Starter (10 euro) version of the game, what do I get and what's the difference between the Complete Edition?

modest igloo
#

yes i know that, did they ever justify in-game

wintry chasm
#

Starter edition is just the base game and first expansion, complete edition is that and the 2nd and 3rd expansion too @ancient grail

obsidian patio
#

Starter edition doesn’t include Stormblood and Shadowbringers, the 2nd and 3rd expansions

slate arrow
ancient grail
#

Well, does it limit me the same way as it does in WoW, for example? When you don't buy the expansion, you can't really do any content. @obsidian patio

obsidian patio
#

You don’t have access to current content so yes in that way.

modest igloo
ancient grail
#

Interesting. Thanks for the replies. I really appreciate it sodaL

modest igloo

no problem!

Quick question, for the job quests gear box rewards, can i discard them and buy a new one later on?

#

I got a question.. my sub ends in 2 days, i just purchased a retainer, and it said that my retainer service will start today and end tomorrow.. did i just pay extra for 1 day ?

rough fossil
#

Any idea how the Ishgardian restoration stuff will be handled when they add the Firmement housing? Will it be separated into the Foundation proper or added to every ward or what?

remote lintel
#

@solid fog you pay for the difference

solid fog
#

Is there a way to cancel it ?

raven sage
#

Your retainer only lasts as long as your sub lasts

rough fossil
#

Hm. If it’s added to every ward that would be a huge incentive to live there

slate arrow
obsidian patio
#

I assume there will be a “story instance” since you go to NPC’s houses to do stuff

slate arrow
#

So if you have 1 day remaining, you pay 1/30th of 2 dollars

obsidian patio
#

And quests existing in the firmament

solid fog
#

Even if i add another 30 days ,the retainer service will take another dose in 1-2 days(currect sub ends in 1-2 days)

slate arrow
#

That's correct. You'll pay whatever the 30 day payment option you selected + the full cost of the retainer sub

solid fog
#

I wonder if they will let me cancel it if i contact them

#

its not much but still pisses me off xD

slate arrow
#

You just manage the retainers on Mogstation

#

Removing a retainer will freeze the retainers you have starting from the bottom so you simply can't access them

solid fog
#

I want to cancel the retainer service till the next sub update

#

so i wont have to pay twice.

slate arrow
#

Go to Mogstation > extra services > retainers

solid fog
#

Additional Retainers: 1
Payment Method: Credit Card/Debit Card (Recurring)
Remaining Days: 3 day(s)

#

i got 3 options

#

manage retainer service, cancel sub,manage payment

slate arrow
#

If your sub isn't running, I'm fairly sure it doesn't charge for retainers either.

jade quartz
#

Cancel.

slate arrow
#

Unless you want to cancel retainer service.

storm egret
#

best dungeon for exp fastest at lvl 59?

jade quartz
#

Also yes it only charges when you actually sub

slate arrow
#

Gubal normal

storm egret
#

gracias

solid fog
#

Oh this just canceled the automatic renewal

#

Didnt put it on pause , thats what i hoped

jade quartz
#

You’ve already paid for your current duration

#

You can’t stop that

slate arrow
#

Pausing isn't an option with ffxiv

solid fog
#

oh this is so frustrating dont even care about the amount xD

open ember
#

What sub update?

#

I was not aware of this

raven sage
#

they just meant until the next sub payment

open ember
#

Oh I thought they were changing prices

#

For the subscription

#

Confused me a bit

slate arrow
#

because you are able to do everything as a healer yes

#

you're missing something then

#

I dunno. I don't know what your current status is.

final niche
#

lol

modest igloo
#

how are we supposed to know when you dont give any info?

remote lintel
#

you havent provided context

slate arrow
#

I have a friend who did the MSQ on Scholar perfectly fine.

little swift
#

if you're in a solo instance

remote lintel
#

because it is 100% possible to do msq as a healer and plenty of people have done it before

little swift
#

and you failed it then please read the text from npcs

#

it might have some information didn't get

final niche
#

you guys are patient af, respecc

remote lintel
#

what is the quest

slate arrow
#

I assume you're currently in Mor Dhona rescuing people?

#

The game always tells you what to do, so you're not paying attention.

#

You're in a Dungeon.

remote lintel
#

yeah thats

#

for 4 people

#

because its a 4 man dungeon

obsidian patio
#

Queue for it normally.

little swift
#

why are you trying to solo an on level dungeon, queue for it normally

slate arrow
#

... Because you're supposed to use Duty Finder to find a Tank and two DPS.

#

The game tells you this.

#

That opens up Duty Finder.

obsidian patio
#

You likely had the “Undersized Duty” option still on from a previous dungeon

remote lintel
#

leave the dungeon, uncheck the undersized party setting, queue for the dungeon

winged cobalt
little swift
#

!faq unsync

zinc orbitBOT
#
How to do Group Instances by Yourself or Without Enough People

In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.

little swift
#

exit the duty

faint flare
#

Turn that odf

remote lintel
little swift
#

and open your the settings as shown in the image

faint flare
#

Open the duty window

#

And leave

little swift
#

open the duty window, with U on keyboard

slate arrow
#

Click on Duty Information to open the Duty Instance window.

#

There should be an option labelled "Leave Instance"

remote lintel
#

leave the dungeon, uncheck the undersized party setting, queue for the dungeon

little swift
#

open the duty window with U

#

and double check your settings

remote lintel
#

the entrance npc just opens the duty finder

remote lintel
#

click the cog at the top

#

untick undersized party

#

queue

little swift
#

click the cog circled by the image

#

make sure thats unselected on msq group duties

#

if you're on level

#

thats not possible to do by yourself

#

you could have clicked it by accident shrug

#

it happens

uneven tendon
#

Undersized (also referred to as unsynced) is typically for content you are well past requirements for.

For example: you could go as a level 70 into a level 50 extreme trial to farm a pony without having to compete with anyone else for it.

#

Another example might be getting help rushing you through MSQ gated content, so a group of level 80 people could run you through that dungeon in a fraction of the time if you were having a hard time getting in through duty finder

cloud night
#

hey, Is there some tips to fastly level up mining job ?

#

except job quest

slate arrow
#

do the highest level leves you can, or do ishgard

cloud night
#

leves are job quest ?

#

look like no, will make some research ty !

remote lintel
#

leves are repeatable quests

leaden ginkgo
#

yes just do the mission once if its blue to get it out of the way

#

and make room on journal

#

takes 2 to 5 mins

remote lintel
#

farming leves is the fastest way to level doh/dol

#

untick party in the chat settings but also why would you

#

just block them

#

right click name > add to blacklist

#

in the chat window

hallow mural
#

has the way to get collectables changed? Just came back to the game after being gone a year

remote lintel
#

are you sure youre right clicking their name

Can't do it while in an instance

warped echo
#

are there any quests i need to do before the last leg of the nier raid

#

for patch 5.5

Ok thanks

sour spoke
#

How exactly do the crafter relics work? Is there something like a guide for them? I just received the first one (Ilevel 440) out of the blue and am unsure if I can just use them on whatever

obsidian patio
#

Until the very last step it’s just straightforward crafting the desired items with the tool equipped.

fading helm
#

my black mage is only lv 6 any tips

obsidian patio
#

The last one uses Expert Recipes which are much harder and rely on you taking advantage of different conditions to successfully complete.

fading helm
#

like whats a good way to lvl up

#

i cant do duties or anything...

remote lintel
#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
remote lintel
#

do fates and hunt log

sour spoke
#

at least at first

oak ice
#

Hunting log should take you most of the way to dungeons

fading helm
#

hunting log?

obsidian patio
#

In the log section of menus

#

It’s basically a checklist of enemies to kill for bonus experience

#

Nice for the early levels, drops off somewhat past 20-30

fading helm
#

how do people suimmon those like glowing squirrel things

faint flare
#

Those are summoner pets

fading helm
#

how do i get those

faint flare
#

Be arcanist/summoner

strange coral
#

Play a summoner (starts as arcanist)

fading helm
#

also i reached lv 30 on my paladin : )

faint flare
#

Its their pets which is a part of their skill kit

fading helm
#

thats cool i thought anyone could ahve em lol

dim ridge
#

is there any way to edit/mess with friends list other than in-game? i know companion app can view but not edit

#

it takes so long to mess with anything in it in game

fringe bone
#

damn cant send links here too

#

Hey uhm i really wanna play final fantasy but dont have game time i found a site that sells 30 days for 9 bucks but it says Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn + 30 Days Included Final Fantasy

#

Would that work?

raven sage
#

If you can't send the link the website is probably sketchy

fringe bone
#

its g2a

faint flare
#

Then yes

#

Its a bad site

slate arrow
#

don't use G2A

fringe bone
#

i bought from it before

#

seemed fine

faint flare
#

G2a is a key reseller

#

A known key reseller

#

They get their keys from illegal means

slate arrow
#

We don't recommend it.

faint flare
#

Which. Can REALLY fuck your account

fringe bone
#

Well its the cheapest

#

i cant really do something else . . .

twilit arch
#

if SE finds that your key is bought with a stolen credit card, your account is going to be banned

faint flare
#

If you want the chance to be perma banned

fringe bone
#

i just recently lost my job and my game time ran out and i cant really find anything else to do

twilit arch
#

so unless you're fine with taking that risk, don't buy from sites like g2a

fringe bone
#

What is the cheapest alternative

faint flare
#

Wait for sales

fringe bone
#

i really cant afford to spend more then 10

slate arrow
#

Playing the Free Trial

fringe bone
#

huh?

faint flare
#

Free trial

fringe bone
#

i already got a char tho that im working on

strange coral
#

In any case "Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn + 30 Days Included" doesn't work if you already registered the game. It won't add game time.

slate arrow
#

You asked for the cheapest alternative.

fringe bone
#

And he is at the stage after the trial

slate arrow
#

You gotta pay up then buddy

#

You can't redeem starter in any form or fashion again

No

Itd NEVER cheaper

slate arrow
#

#

i guess no final fantasy then

leaden ginkgo
#

My rank atm is second lieutenant is there any other reason to keep going up in rank?

fringe bone
#

faint flare
#

Mogstation, or game cards from trusted sellers

fringe bone
#

Alrighty

#

Wait they have game cards? Never knew, usually they have the wow one's in stores

faint flare
#

They're around

fringe bone

Me neither

faint flare
#

Usually digital afaik...think amazon or something does them

#

But they exist

leaden ginkgo
#

Im also reading online it doesnt cost seals anymore to be promoted? So i can spend my seals finally?

slate arrow
#

You can't spend seals for promotions after second lieutenant

#

gotta do squadrons to get up to captain

leaden ginkgo
#

Just compare the cost of it on the marketboard to the vendor if it’s normal quality

But that doesn’t really matter

leaden ginkgo

hmmm

Hi! I'm very new to the game. As in, I'm currently installing it. I played it for a few hours some years ago, but other than that, I'm completely new to the game. I've never really been invested in an mmo before, but I'd really like to get into ffxiv. Does anyone have any tips for me?
I'm playing on the free trial version btw, for now

#

My friend told me to play Final Fantasy but he told me to buy a boost now I'm level 70 and I have no idea what I'm doing and he isn't playing anymore so I got shafted

leaden ginkgo
faint flare
#

It syncs, and its scaled around it

dim ridge
#

Violent, that really sucks. Boosting to level 70 is an awful idea for someone's first time

faint flare
#

You might be able to do 1 room as paladin/warrior with proper healing planning

rain pasture
#

yea I have no idea what skills to use or what I'm doing I feel like he ruined the whole experience for me

remote lintel
#

a story skip or only level skip?

warped nest
#

@rain pasture if you are interested in doing the story, you can make Another character

rain pasture
#

he told me to buy both

#

so I boughtj both

dim ridge
#

Here's the nice part about ffxiv, you can pick up any joband level from scratch

#

and then new game +, unlocked in horizon (i think?) would let you replay the story

warped nest
#

If you want to keep going with your existing character, go to YouTube, look for "FFXIV (insert job name) job guide"

#

And watch the video from Weskalber

remote lintel
#

i mean if you really want to keep the lvl 70 character you can do new game+ but it doesnt give any rewards, or you could just make a new one and experience everything

dim ridge
#

the idea behind this game is similar to a singleplayer rpg, where you play through the story and that gets you content unlocked

#

yeah ^ that

remote lintel
#

for reference it's not hard to get to lvl 70

#

the story levels you

dim ridge
#

yeah, the idea is that you do the story and that ups your level, until you hit cap

warped nest
#

The boost are for people don't want to spend time to grind exp for alt jobs

dim ridge
#

msq is king

warped nest
#

Or just want to fast track their alt characters

dim ridge
#

like for instance, people who make alts on other datacenters, or raid alts, or rp alts

what do you guys think i should do, get the blue level 80 crafter gear and have that until new expansion or try get the end game crafted one without melds ?

can someone gimme tips on how to manage my mana as a thm? im questing rn and just having a hard time dealing damage + managing my mp :(

faint flare
#

Go into Blizzard forn

remote lintel
#

you burn your mp with your fire spells and regen it with ice

faint flare
#

Thats the whole point of Thm

#

Spend maba with fire

#

Regen with ice

remote lintel
#

the idea is that you swap between fire and ice to do dmg/regen mp

faint flare
#

Rinse repeat forever

With the relic and food+potion, can it do HQ ?

obsidian patio
#

If you use all HQ materials then yes.

#

Or most of the big-boosting ones

solid fog
#

Wow.. how hard is 4stars

obsidian patio
#

4-star always needs HQ materials for assured HQ, better gear just reduces how much you need

Hey everyone! I was curious if any of you knew how to get each GC rank up after Captain? I just finished that flagged mission to receive that rank and I still want to keep ranking up, but cannot find anything anywhere explaining what needs to be done for each after that.

faint flare
#

You dont

#

Captain is the max

#

There's no more ranks to get

honest anvil
#

is 5.5 coming with ShB allied beast tribe quests?

faint flare
#

No

#

There's no allied tribe this time

honest anvil
#

:0

faint flare
#

Told us during the LL

rapid valley
#

Oooh okay. Cause there’s more listed and it looked like you could get higher than the captain rank! Thank you for answering me about it!!

honest anvil
#

no hildi AND no allied ...

leaden ginkgo
#

So why isnt blue mage lvl 80 and stuck to 50? Do they hate blue mage? And stopped adding on to it? Lol

faint flare
#

Its 70 capped

faint flare
#

Because its a limited job

wintry chasm
#

Also what Vinyl said

#

It's more like it's own content in the form of a job

faint flare
#

It can do some extremely broken shit

leaden ginkgo
wintry chasm
leaden ginkgo
#

It’d be insanely broken if they did

faint flare
#

It can clear dungeons in 3 minutes

#

Let that sink in

leaden ginkgo
#

Lol

faint flare
#

And kill rqid bosses from 25%

#

Sokk

remote lintel
#

bc blue mage can basically 1 shot bosses

wintry chasm
#

Blue Mage's whole shitck is that you can go out into the world, learn monster skills and then choose 20 out of those like, over 100 skills

remote lintel
#

so of course they cant do current content

faint flare
#

Yeah. BLUE in current savage would break everything

wintry chasm
#

That's not balanceable for raids and stuff

#

It's broken by design

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh huh

heavy wadi
#

They don't want it to be usable in current content, yeah

faint flare
#

Plus it gives them time to design spells and all

heavy wadi
#

It'll probably get upped to 80 when EW releases

#

or shortly after

faint flare
#

Sinces there's over 100 spells for blue

wintry chasm
#

Because the devs wanted the job to play more like a traditional blue mage in FF games rather than actually try to limit what you can learn/use

remote lintel
#

its made to be side content

#

not a real job

faint flare
#

Side content and the best event farmer

leaden ginkgo
#

Huh

honest anvil
#

when was the most recent blu update?

faint flare
#

5.4, so quite recent

leaden ginkgo
#

How does the right side of the fashion report work?,on the bot

honest anvil
#

and what was the update?

faint flare
#

Or 5.45. It was this patch cycle

#

Upped it to 70

leaden ginkgo
#

Upped the level

remote lintel
#

they capped it at 70

leaden ginkgo
#

60-70

faint flare
#

And naturally new spells

viscid fossil
#

is the data center visit on patch 5.58 or 5.55?

faint flare
#

And another carnival stage

remote lintel
#

5.58

faint flare
viscid fossil
#

Oh ok

faint flare
#

The very least they said it was a expansion thing

remote lintel
#

it says 5.58 on steam

viscid fossil
#

oh nice interesting

faint flare
#

I dont trust those sneaky steam people paissasquint

#

Especially with prelims

honest anvil
#

would dc visit make dc transfer redundant?

faint flare
#

We dont know

#

We dont know what we would even be able to do

#

When.we visit another dc

honest anvil
#

Cause i’m thinking of getting a dc transfer >.>

faint flare
#

We dont know how it would work so

leaden ginkgo
#

There are still things you cant do while world visiting so it wouldnt be completely redundant no

viscid fossil
#

Only if you plan to make it home. for me I can't move (I have a house)

honest anvil
#

so roughly when is 5.58? :/

remote lintel
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

slate arrow
#

July-ish?

faint flare
#

Would be a few months prior.to the expansion

leaden ginkgo
#

Sometime summer

slate arrow
#

We don't know the exact schedule since corona still threw everything off

leaden ginkgo
#

Have they confirmed 5.55 in late may or is it floating between then and june still?

slate arrow
#

we don't know

manic flare
#

free trial players can join NN, correct?

faint flare
#

Yes

manic flare
#

what about fellowships and CWLS?

faint flare
#

Linkshells yes

delicate field
#

at what level does DRK get their AoE?

strange coral
#

6

slate arrow
#

level 6 unless you mean the combo action

delicate field
#

the ground claw thingie

slate arrow
#

in which case it's 72

#

6

delicate field
#

this level 70 drk hasn't used it a single times... i guess he's new

slate arrow
#

!action Unleash

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Unleash** : lvl 6 DRK (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 150 to all nearby enemies.

slate arrow
#

🤔

#

Ask them to AoE when pulling mobs in between bosses

#

if they refuse, just leave or votekick

#

might be in the trap of "I don't regenerate MP or resource with AOE so it's trash"

leaden ginkgo
#

Smells like job skip to me

delicate field
#

ah yeah. 70. makes sense

leaden ginkgo
#

By 70 unleash should be your malicious best friend

delicate field
#

right? I've healed a lot of DRK and they literally use it all of the time

#

lol

leaden ginkgo
#

Not like theyve got much of an option kek

faint flare
#

Because they literally dont get their second aoe combo until 72

#

For the dumbest reason

leaden ginkgo
#

So i found out i am logged on fflogs and I wonder, what does Dps rdps and Adps mean?

delicate field
#

well he wasn't using any AoE, just single target pulls

zinc orbitBOT
#
What is the difference between rDPS, pDPS and aDPS on FFLogs?
  • RaidDPS (rDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus the damage from buffs you received plus the damage from buffs you contributed
  • Personal DPS (pDPS) is: Your TotalDPS without being adjusted for buffs.
  • aDPS is: Your TotalDPS minus single target buffs applied to you (devilment, dragon sight, astro cards, etc)
remote lintel
#

rdps is raid dps, adps is adjusted dps

slate arrow
#

rDPS stands for Raid DPS adjusted for other players DPS done under your buffs

#

aDPS is your DPS not counting for buffs

#

personal DPS is no longer shown

leaden ginkgo
#

And the different colors? Is this normal because i heard often about grey parsing

honest anvil
#

hm, which dps is the parse number based on?

leaden ginkgo
#

Rdps

faint flare
#

Colours are the percentiles

remote lintel
#

colors indicate rank

#

grey is the worst

faint flare
#

Grey is 0-20 percentile

#

Which means you're fucking garbage

#

Or died alot

#

Or both

slate arrow
#

or you're just undergeared

faint flare
#

Or all the above

slate arrow
#

This late in the tier unless you're at 530 you should just worry about clearing first and parsing later

leaden ginkgo
#

The way it was best explained is "if youre parsing grey without dying you lack a fundamental understanding of your job"

#

Is it the color by "parses" that says that or as sample by rdps/adps

slate arrow
#

rDPS usually

leaden ginkgo
#

I am purple is that good?

faint flare
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

Decent

faint flare
#

Quite good

slate arrow
#

Depending on the content.

remote lintel
#

purple is high but it also depends on what fight youre doing

slate arrow
#

For example, nobody takes normal raid parses seriously

faint flare
#

Blue is average, purple is above average

remote lintel
#

because if nobody is uploading logs for one fight then of course youre going to score high

leaden ginkgo
#

If it isnt savage or ultimate people dont really care

honest anvil
#

Oh so ast’s rDps counts both malefic + combust dmg And dmg cards and div give other players?

slate arrow
#

yes

faint flare
#

Gold/pino is Perfect
Orange is Extremely good/under perfect
Purple is above average
Blue is average
Green is just under average
Grey means you're bad

#

In short

#

For that fight

leaden ginkgo
#

Thank you so much!

#

One last question. What means "best average"?

honest anvil
#

so does that mean ast, dnc, brd’s rDPS depend on others? bad others can drag your rdps?

remote lintel
#

yes

faint flare
#

Bad groups drag you down regardless cause slow kill times

remote lintel
#

thats why dnc and brd have lower personal dps but do fine on rdps

slate arrow
#

FFlogs is pretty good about filtering out bad/old logs though so you just have to upload better parses to wipe out bad ones

leaden ginkgo
#

I went from 30 quests to 9

#

Took me all day but i belive this is every blue quest from realm reborn anyways and below

remote lintel
#

you dont need to do the EXs and hard mode dungeons if you dont want to

leaden ginkgo
#

Exs?

remote lintel
#

or the relic

#

you have odin extreme and ultima extreme

leaden ginkgo
#

Its ok i will so they are out of the way ya know?

#

Then ima go back to focusing on main story

faint flare
#

No one ques for them

leaden ginkgo
#

Im done for the day ive beel playing a lil to long

faint flare
#

So get to unsyncing them with 80s

remote lintel
#

^

#

youll only get them done if you get lvl 80s to carry you

leaden ginkgo
#

Well out of all these quests here which ones do i do?

#

Besides story

remote lintel
#

legacy of allag

faint flare
#

Legacy of Allag

#

The whole chain with that

remote lintel
#

the others are just hard mode dungeons or exs or the relic

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok so just the legacy got it

leaden ginkgo
remote lintel
#

theyre not in leveling roulette

#

theyre in 50/60/70 roulette

leaden ginkgo
#

@remote lintel does this look A Ok?

#

I'd prefer quarn or any other hard over the midgardsormr one

remote lintel
#

you could have just abandoned them but sure

glossy bay
#

I’m on Marlboro server, I heard it’s the quietest server on Crystal - should I switch servers? I’m level 37 first time playing

remote lintel
#

individual world doesnt matter @glossy bay

glossy bay
#

How come?

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok im heading out thank you cerb and vinyl and other guy who helps me but cant remember name

remote lintel
#

because 1. matchmaking is across the data center

#

and 2. you can just world visit

glossy bay
#

Do towns etc look busier in other World’s ?

#

Worlds

remote lintel
#

theyre the same

faint flare
#

Depends

remote lintel
#

they might change depending on time of day

faint flare
#

Uldah is always populated in Balmung

leaden ginkgo
#

Any of these important?

faint flare
#

Otherwise its typically limsa which is populated

#

Nope

leaden ginkgo
#

Got it

remote lintel
#

those are just hard mode dungeons

glossy bay
#

Ok thanks also what’s best way to find a FC?

leaden ginkgo
#

I ended up doing that one hard mode dungeon very cool

faint flare
#

!faq communityfinder

zinc orbitBOT
glossy bay
#

Thanks!!

leaden ginkgo
#

For keeps sake mission is also a hard mode dungeon?

remote lintel
#

its an optinal dungeon but not hard mode

#

no it is hard mode nvm

leaden ginkgo
#

Op

#

Ok

#

And u dont recommend i unlock these for now until lvl 80?

honest anvil
#

no unlock dungeons as you can

remote lintel
#

level doesnt matter, you dont have to do them if you dont want to

honest anvil
#

it’s (old) extremes that you better wait til you’re 80

leaden ginkgo
#

U said i need a lvl 80 to help me find dungeons tho

remote lintel
#

no you need a level 80 for the extremes

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh and some of these are extremes?

remote lintel
#

extremes are for trials

#

not dungeons

#

the ultimate ballad unlocks ultima extreme

leaden ginkgo
#

Ok

faint flare
#

The hard mode dungeons will give you some more sources of poetics if anything

#
  • the first time clear bonus for extra if you need more ironworks pieces
warped nest
#

Just to clarify, if it isn't already

#

Hard mode dungeons are not the same dungeon with the same enemies, bosses, and mechanics, and everything is made harder

#

Think of it more like a remix/variation

elfin wagon
#

how do i go to 31-60 for housin

faint flare
#

Go into a ward and use a aethernet shard

#

And port to the subdivision

i think vinyl tails just has this discord channel up all the time on another monitor

clever willow

you sit sideways on incitatus, right?

manic flare
#

the hyur models sit sideways

#

i believe viera actually ride the mount

clever willow
#

oh is it only hyur

manic flare
#

well the hyur sit sideways on all the horses

#

which is kinda annoying tbh

clever willow

ohhh i thought it was something special to that mount lol

manic flare
#

i think elezen may sit sideways too

twilit arch
#

female hyur and elezen

clever willow
#

i see

#

so it's race specific

manic flare
#

i wonder how lalafells ride the horses

#

do they just clutch on the horses's legs

clever willow
#

idk how i got it in my head that i thought incitatus specifically made them ride sideways

manic flare
#

since they aren't tall enough to get on the horses' back

upper cove
#

Good day all! Can I confirm the maintenance starts in approximately 2-3 hours and is estimated to last 9 hours?

twilit arch
#

Yeah that's how they sit on that particular horse model (pvp horses excluded)

manic flare
#

you can always type "!maint" to check how much time you have

Thanks!

stable hinge
#

just for my own curiosity is it possible to clear e9s with a full team of greys?

remote lintel
#

unlikely

stable hinge
#

so is it accurate to say people parsing grey aren't pulling their weight?

manic flare
stable hinge
#

grey on that totally legal 3rd party software

manic flare
#

does grey mean below 50th percentile?

twilit arch
#

grey means you're basically the bottom of the barrel

#
99th percentile = pink
95-98th percentile = orange
75-94th percentile = purple
50th-74th percentile = blue
25-50th percentile = green
sub 25th percentile = gray```
honest anvil
#

All Grey but all 20+ is possible, actually

manic flare
#

i really want to parse myself, but i've heard that once you downlaod the program, other people can see your stats on fflogs

stable hinge
#

Im on ps4 and other people can see my stats

#

doesnt matter if you download it or not

honest anvil
#

i know cause my group did that xD

twilit arch
#

That said, you kind of also have to look at the context of where the person is parsing grey

manic flare
#

no i mean other people can look you up on fflogs and see what your parses are

stable hinge
#

you can hide your logs but thats generally frowned upon

remote lintel
#

people cant see your stats unless they get uploaded

#

act doesnt automatically upload them

stable hinge
#

a lot of the worst players i've played with have had their logs hidden

twilit arch
#

plenty of reasons why some one might be parsing grey. easiest thing to look at is rotation

manic flare
#

are there other parsers besides ACT?

remote lintel
#

not that ive heard of

stable hinge
#

I'm not sure tbh I'm on console

versed geyser
#

If I see a unique item on the MB, would I be able to get it again?

silver ruin
manic flare
silver ruin
#

act is the only one

remote lintel
#

you cant

silver ruin
slate arrow
#

you can't on console

stable hinge
#

other people do it

#

while im in the party

worthy bluff
#

Why am i nor getting Tortured Memory of the Dying in Coerthas Western Highlands ? am i doing something wrong? D:

manic flare
remote lintel
#

@versed geyser you can only have 1 in your inventory at a time so you would have to put it in a different storage

silver ruin
#

unless you check their logs

#

on the net

stable hinge
#

fflogs

twilit arch
#

You have the quest active and you're getting gold yes/ @worthy bluff

worthy bluff
#

Ohhh the quest, shit tyvm! lol

twilit jewel
#

are we gonna have the reset then one day later the 5.5 patch?

stable hinge
#

not that my party is parsing grey I was just curious if it was possible

slate arrow
#

reset will be during maint iirc

versed geyser
#

It's been a VERY long day

stable hinge
#

sticker doesnt actually hide names properly 1 sec

manic flare
#

@stable hinge why did you delete?

twilit arch
slim surge
#

Is it worthwhile to cap revelation tomes before 5.5? I don't recall there being any new recipes with tome mats back in 4.5

stable hinge
#

for reference

slim surge
#

I meant to try and hit 2000/2000, in case there's any new mats

twilit arch
#

oh there wont be mats with revelations

#

its strictly for the cryptlurker gear

remote lintel
#

@versed geyser most dunegon drops are unsellable

#

but most things in this game can be obtained again yes

versed geyser
#

Yeah I noticed that there were some items that I got from dungeons that I was able to sell on the MB like the Plundered Goggles

twilit arch
#

there's a few arr dungeons that do have marketboardable gear

#

but those are very much exceptions

gritty falcon
#

Hi, I'm only a few days into the game using the free trial, but my first job is already lv 50 so I want to start leveling a 2nd job to not waste the exp. My MSQ is only around lv 35 right now. I was wondering if it's possible to run the actual quests as my 1st job, but then switch to my 2nd job gear to "claim" the green checkmark completion and get the credit?

twilit arch
#

You need to be the same lvl as the quest to turn in

gritty falcon
#

oh! that is important info to know, thank you 😅

twilit arch
#

so no that wouldn't work, but tbh getting up to 35 really wouldn't take that long, especially since im assuming you're on a preferred server

remote lintel
#

you can do the hunt log and fates up to lvl 15

leaden ginkgo
#

Can any gatherers tell me where to obtain Yafaem Wildgrass?

remote lintel
#

then spam dungeons until youre 35

twilit arch
#

its northish of little ala mhigo, near the zone line @leaden ginkgo

leaden ginkgo
#

It's a hidden item, but what does that mean?@twilit arch

twilit arch
#

basically items that have a chance to randomly appear on the node

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah, I see. So, I'm just unlucky.

twilit arch
#

there is a skill that you can to use force hidden items to appear called Luck of the Pioneer

#

but that's not really reliable since requires HQ chain 2 to use

leaden ginkgo
#

Better than what I'm doing now.

twilit arch
#

basically just run around tapping the nodes until the item you want appears

leaden ginkgo
#

Besides, I'm Lv. 55 but I don't have it. I didn't realize there were skills locked behind job quests.

#

For gatherers, anyways.

twilit arch

Hey I am at the point in story where I choose between serpent, flame, or storm officers

#

Does it matter what I choose?

twilit arch

nope

Nope

Thank you!

how are there more slots for materia that i can put?

twilit arch
#

1 more

#

so 5 total

lone spruce
#

How do I get the evenstar hat?

#

I’ve looked it up and it’s been sending me in circles

twilit arch
#

you can buy it with allied seals from the hunt billmaster at your grand company HQ

low lynx
#

but when i go to the materia melder, i only have 2 or less slots for the other gear

twilit arch
#

materia melders can't overmeld

gritty falcon
#

Is there a visual aid website/interactive map of ARR regions that show by area where certain level enemies/dungeons are?

low lynx
#

i wonder how I got 4 materia here then

boreal storm
#

Advanced meld

low lynx
#

i didnt dio that

jagged crow
#

My chocobo just changed colors why is the next step for colors not showing

#

Gaius'van'baelsar has grown a new coat of feathers!

Gaius'van'baelsar's plumage will be ready for change in 6 hours.
Gaius'van'baelsar devours the Doman plum.
Gaius'van'baelsar devours the Doman plum.

low lynx
#

i didnt even know how to meld materia

twilit arch
#

did you buy the gear from the marketboard?

jagged crow
#

I don't want to keep feeding him it but it's not showing the "your chocobo is beginning to grow new feathers" mesage

low lynx
#

my bf made the necklace for me

twilit arch
#

When you feed you get a random amount of +/- of that colour, so you need to keep feeding until you get that message

boreal storm
#

Then clearly they overmelded it for you

twilit arch
#

because you haven't pushed the rgb far enough to warrant a change

jagged crow
#

I won't max the color out will I ?

#

I am trying to make it white

#

I am at cream yellow atm

remote lintel
#

if it doesnt display the message then nothing changed

#

you need to feed it until it shows the message

jagged crow
#

yay it worked

#

I fed him 2 more times

low lynx
#

oh cause he said he doesnt know why there was 4 materia in it either

jagged crow
#

I heard white is the hardest color to do

#

because of how specific the rgb has to be

twilit arch
#

black and white are pretty hard to get first try yeah

#

easy to overshoot

remote lintel
#

took me like 4-5 tries to get soot black

twilit arch
#

its just the rng side of chocobo dyeing

low lynx
#

why do some things have more materia slots than others?

slate arrow
#

that just how they be

remote lintel
#

because SE wanted them to

slate arrow
#

FFXIV didn't standardize how materia slots were assigned until later expansions so

#

early game weirdness ¯_(ツ)_/¯

brazen cypress

oi m8's, I'm new. Is there any reason the game is installing at snails pace? I have really good internet and I just wanna know if this is normal

Shadowbringers relic

vernal urchin

and also, my pic is of the level 80 relic weapon

rugged flicker
#

Well if there aren't any new people in the party, it should give the option to skip it.

vernal urchin
#

that'd be nice

rugged flicker
#

One solution I was thinking of was maybe they could be skip if the whole party agrees to skip it, but if they did that, then people would pressure the newcomers to skip it, threatening them with booting them if they didn't.

earnest wraith
#

if whole party agree to skip, you can dc and rejoin to skip msq.

#

otherwise, you may get reported :3

slate arrow
#

You'd have people who would just leave and eat the penalty.

how can i change HUD in pvp?

I mean considering how often you get new players, they'd be doing that a lot and get nothing done.

@slate arrow Another question if you're willing to answer. For fanfest for getting that whale can I preorder for that to get that mount or do I have to wait till may to purchuse the ticket?

cloud lake
#

RIP Then

slate arrow
#

It might just be on Mogstation like the cloud bike, since there's no Fanfest ticket this year.

#

At least, I don't believe there will be.

This is better than it used to be either way though. If a new player was in my FC, I'd insist they tell me when they plan on doing the last two dungeons and run it with them and some friends to make sure they could enjoy the the story.

wheat plume
true elm
#

so i've done a lot of dungeons today. you cant loot the same item twice?

slate arrow
#

If it's unique, no.

#

Unique means only one per "inventory"

true elm
#

yeah i mean its not stuff i need or worth anything but confusing

gusty hare
#

is puppets' bunker like savage raids, in which people usually don't queue in duty finder, they only use party finder?

open ember
#

No

#

Its an alliance raid

#

A regular 24 man instance

gusty hare
#

oh
can't find a party for life though, that's why I thought

open ember
#

Just wait till Tuesday

#

Because people will go back to it for coins

#

You can do Party Finder but it'll be longer that way

gusty hare
#

:(

open coral
#

Yeah, from Tuesday queues for all of the NieR raids will pick up.

#

I may be a bit of a nitpicker here, but what DC has the slightly higher clear rates, Primal or Aether?

remote lintel
#

theyre about the same

cursive abyss
#

It does not matter what world I pick for Aether or Primal then?

open ember
#

No it doesn't

remote lintel
#

individual world doesnt matter

open ember
#

Because everything is cross play now

#

And cross world party exists

cursive abyss
#

What does the star here mean?

halcyon gorge
#

I've heard some servers are more geared towards certain aspects like role play or dungeon, etc. so you might want to search that up

remote lintel
#

they arent

#

the star means theres preferred worlds iirc

jade quartz
#

Crystal data centre is the hub for roleplay, the other datacentres are all just normal.

twilit arch
#

on that page it means its your currently selected datacenter

#

Deities dont really matter do they

leaden ginkgo
#

Not really

#

Mostly for RP reasons/ flavor reasons

remote lintel
#

nothing on character creation matters except class

shut panther
#

even that.. 15 levels later

cursive abyss
#

Couple of things, how do I enlarge textboxes, and how do I make the camera not move when pressed A and D

#

This is an alt character, just forgot a few things

#

and settings dont seem to carry over

shut panther
#

right click a textbook and you should see zoom options

cursive abyss
#

@shut panther And it will stay like that for the rest of the game?

remote lintel
#

yes

#

standard control scheme makes your character strafe instead of turning the camera

cursive abyss
#

How do I fix that, it makes me wanna barf

remote lintel
#

you either pick standard or legacy

cursive abyss
remote lintel

character config

cursive abyss
#

How does this textbox size look?

#

140%

rugged flicker
#

Is there any reason at all to use "Play" after you unlock "Minor Arcana?"

little swift
#

yes

#

!action divination

zinc orbitBOT

**Divination** : lvl 50 AST (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases damage dealt by self and nearby party members.
Duration: 15s

Effectiveness is determined by the number of different types of seals in play.
1 Seal Type: 4%
2 Seal Types: 5%
3 Seal Types: 6%

rugged flicker
#

Oh

#

Additional effect.

little swift
#

you don't get seals from minor arcana

remote lintel
#

minor arcana doesnt give you seals

rugged flicker
#

So how should I determine when to use which?

little swift
#

you have all the seals you need

remote lintel
#

do you have all 3 seals?

#

yes?

rugged flicker
#

Still don't quite grasp the seal thing.

remote lintel
#

minor arcana

#

each card has 1 of 3 seals

little swift
#

or you don't have redraws left and don't need the seal

remote lintel
#

you want all 3 unique seals for divination

#

you get the seals from playing cards

carmine goblet
#

@cursive abyss let's use channel for non-shitpost questions please

#

unless you wanna reword that in another way

#

that is a legit question

cursive abyss
#

@carmine goblet Wasnt a shitpost question, I should have worded it as "Why does the standard control scheme make me feel...off?"

carmine goblet
#

okay thank you

little swift
#

also not really a question that we can answer for you

#

its an issue that you're dealing with that is entirely personal to you

remote lintel
#

standard is like how all other mmos are played

#

legacy is more regular 3rd person game-like

little swift
#

could at best give a maybe you have motion sickness answer

cursive abyss
#

I think I'm just used to legacy because thats what my main char used

shrewd owl
#

how does one hide the hotbar numbers again

carmine goblet
#

Legacy is a more popular control scheme if I recall

#

since it's easier to use and more common in MMOs

remote lintel
#

character config > somewhere in the hotbar tab

shrewd owl
#

ty

cursive abyss
#

Also, why cant I change my map size, the option to change window size is greyed out?

remote lintel
#

drag the corner?

cursive abyss
#

OH

#

Duh

#

I feel dumb

little swift
#

copy and paste your character settings from one character to another

#

so you don't have to manually set them up again

sleek roost
cursive abyss
little swift
#

yes if you're on pc you can just do it

remote lintel
#

documents > my games > ff14 > find your main character's CHR folder

little swift
#

copy the contents of your first character file to the other one

cursive abyss
little swift
#

you can leave the log stuff out if you want

#

that includes battle log data

#

but i typically copy everything

halcyon ivy
#

so uh

#

this is embarrassing but i'm lv 34 and still a thm.. i was just told during a uh.. duty (?) that i should prob look into doing the black mage quests

#

how do i get started on those?

little swift
#

!faq job

zinc orbitBOT
#
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.

remote lintel
#

they appear under your msq bar

shrewd owl
#

you've been doing your class quests?

cursive abyss
little swift
#

if you've done all your class quests as a thaumaturge and you have completed the main story quest up to that point, you get the ability to unlock your job quests

#

just copy paste/overwrite

halcyon ivy
shrewd owl
#

oh yeah go do those

little swift
#

you should be doing your class/job quests as they come up

shrewd owl
#

they're your top priority

little swift
#

they're not optional
