[midnight lion]

wolf marks are PVP

[strong saddle]

Okay

[velvet briar]

can i somehow can preview emotes

[remote lintel]

not in game

[timid geyser]

270 is max, you can be under that no worries

[velvet briar]

ugh where can i peview the dark entreaty emote

[heavy wadi]

look it up on yt?

[twilit arch]

or go to the thaumaturges' guild in ul'dah

its the emote the lalafels in a corner are doing with their hands raised infront of them

[fervent drum]

What do ou guys think about a xbox launch in May or announcement or will they finish 14s story and then bring in xbox on the new story arc ? with next gen consoles

[strong saddle]

They doing xbox?

[leaden ginkgo]

where do you get vexatious memories and haunting memories again?

[boreal storm]

no, they aren't

[strong saddle]

Rip xbox

[twilit arch]

※Vexatious memories of the dying can be found from FATEs in the Far East region, or the Return to Ivalice alliance raids. ``` @leaden ginkgo

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks

[faint flare]

They're not ending the story next expansion...a new story arc begins after this one is over. They have said there is no obstacles for doing an xbox version, they're just very focused on Endwalker

[fervent drum]

Yeah that what I was meaning seems logical to bring xbox guys over for that, but maybe xbox will never see the light of day and everyone will just go to ashes of creation...

Splendid

[honest tusk]

how come some exarchic gear has 2 materia slots and some has 6?

[faint flare]

Overmelds

You can force materia into crafted gear for a total of 5 max

[honest tusk]

how do i do that? thanks btw ^^

[fickle tree]

hello, I don't have many itinerant tomestones, what's worth getting from the shop that can't be earned in the game?

[faint flare]

You need a crafter levelled

Or use request meld on someone who has

[honest tusk]

thanka yuu

[twilit arch]

falcon and namazu earrings are the only two things that can't be obtained elsewhere in game @fickle tree

[fickle tree]

thank you, hopefully I can farm the 50 tomes for the mount

maintenance is today, right?

[leaden ginkgo]

it’s in like 7 hrs

[rustic cobalt]

Hey guys so I’m liking the free trial but looking to buy the game now how does purchasing the game work

I was looking to buy this

[fickle tree]

what's the fastest way to get 50 tomestones?

[rustic cobalt]

If it includes everything

[faint flare]

You get a code and put it onto the Mogstation

Complete edition had everything

[leaden ginkgo]

running prae 5 times I guess? 🤷‍♂️

[faint flare]

3 blur mages + tank aurum vale

Prae is shit

[rustic cobalt]

So I’ll buy this then

[fickle tree]

Praetorium gives 10 tomestones?

[leaden ginkgo]

there are certain dungeons which give tomestones. Prae gives 10 per run.

Yes.

[fickle tree]

hmm

[faint flare]

Blue mage aurum vale gives you 60 per hour

[leaden ginkgo]

it takes time though

so open up youtube or something

[faint flare]

Prae is fucking garbage for tomes

Takes too long

[leaden ginkgo]

cuz them cutscenes are long

[fickle tree]

I see

[leaden ginkgo]

that’s what I did

[open ember]

Today is the last day for tomes

[leaden ginkgo]

you know a faster way?

[faint flare]

.

[open ember]

For moogletomes

[leaden ginkgo]

lmao

BLU

[faint flare]

.

[rustic cobalt]

Is it worth me buying the job boost came here mostly for the multiplayer not story

[leaden ginkgo]

that is assuming you leveled BLU

but yeah

[faint flare]

Or be the tank

[leaden ginkgo]

probably that might work

[open ember]

Also the BLU route with aurum vale is always known to be faster

Always has

[faint flare]

It takes 3 minutes

[leaden ginkgo]

does BLU give tomestones though?

[faint flare]

Per run

Ues

Cause you're synced

[leaden ginkgo]

I see.

[faint flare]

Again

[strange coral]

Job boost won't skip the story. There's a separate boost for that and it only goes to the start of Shadowbringers.

[faint flare]

You get 60 per hour

With blues in aurum

[little swift]

Even spamming wanderers Palace is faster

[faint flare]

3mins per run

[little swift]

than prae

[faint flare]

Hell even pvp

Prae is fucking garbage for the time invested

[rustic cobalt]

Ahhh

[little swift]

Pvp is variable though because its 5 on windows 3 for loss

[open ember]

Prae is almost an hour long with only 10 tomes to give as opposed to 2 4min runs giving the same amount

[little swift]

You still average out on 4 per match with a 50% wr

[leaden ginkgo]

👀

you need BLU level 40 I presume

[faint flare]

You preferably want it high enough to learn Ultravibration

[boreal storm]

Aurum is a near50 dungeon

[leaden ginkgo]

whatever level AV is at is what I meant.

[faint flare]

Rams voice, Ultravibration, moon flute, missile and final sting are bare minimum

[sweet valve]

Hi, I accidently turned on first person mode, how do I go back to third person mode for my camera

[leaden ginkgo]

If you do end up skipping the story please take some time to get into how your job(s) work before hopping into multiplayer content. It'll benefit everyone involved, trust me.

[faint flare]

Aurum is 47

[little swift]

Learning ultravibration is pretty easy underleveled as long as you have a friend keeping you alive

[rustic cobalt]

Okay I will

[leaden ginkgo]

Doing Hall of the Notice quests will teach you basics of multiplayer and roles for it

I highly recommend you do them

dont worry there is no story

^ Especially as a healer or a tank it's important to have the basic knowledge of how to do things, as you're not only responsible for killing mobs you're responsible for keeping things running smoothly.

[sweet valve]

For preference I'm using mouse and laptop. Is it a certain keybind or?

[twilit arch]

home key is default keybind to go into first person view

[sweet valve]

Okay, thank you

Can I find that in keybind settings or would it be in character config?

[twilit arch]

should be in the keybind settings

[sweet valve]

Okay, thanms

Thanks

One last thing, would it be called home or would it be called something else

[tacit jungle]

pyros question.... avoid until 40+ or just go in

[sour ruin]

Most laptops will stick it above the numpad in the top key row

[open ember]

You can go in at 35

[sweet valve]

Never mind, I got it

[open ember]

It doesn't hurt

[tacit jungle]

yes but is that a good idea

[sweet valve]

Thank you guys so much

[open ember]

Uh

Pyros fates give A LOT of exp

So it won't be too bad to level up

[twilit arch]

pyros is a bit smaller map than pagos

[tacit jungle]

assuming i can get to them. lol

[twilit arch]

so its ok to go in sooner if you want

[tacit jungle]

okay cool

[open ember]

I mean you can go in lv40 but that's totally up to you

[twilit arch]

main reason why people suggest waiting until later for pagos is because its just really annoying

[faint flare]

Plus you can start getting/using logos

[tacit jungle]

I just threw gil at that problem. 53 logos unlocked. lol

[open ember]

I started pyros at 35 and had no issues but keep in mind Pyros has a WAYYY higher enemy density

Like Vinyl said Pyros is tolerable at 35 just because logos actions are introduced

[tacit jungle]

is there a specific set of "must have" actions?

that make it easy

[faint flare]

Spirit of the remembered gives you a chance to be reraised...reflect for reflect farming for xp

[glossy flare]

is the gold coin from DR weekly locked or just a random drop?

[tacit jungle]

3 from the weekly, SMALL random drop chance on the last boss, or trade 100 silver

[jolly sorrel]

What kind of content in ShB will likely be dead when 6.0 comes? What do I want to do while it's still alive?

[tacit jungle]

bozja

[glossy flare]

yea, knew about the trade in for the silver coins

but welp

[twilit arch]

bozja will likely see a drop in numbers ye

[gaunt raptor]

WHM question: Can Regen crit? 🤔

[glossy flare]

Even though it is okay-ish to lvl alts in there

[twilit arch]

Yes @gaunt raptor

[jolly sorrel]

I'll put it high on the priority list then, thanks. Anything else?

[glossy flare]

so not as bad as Eureka probably

[gaunt raptor]

Thankies

[open ember]

They are buffing bozja to scale to the amount of players in CE/Skirmishes/CLL I believe

Unless I read it wrong

[glossy flare]

If you plan to get into savage raiding then the current tier obviously, though we are damn late in the tier so finding a static is unlikely

[twilit arch]

i'd get the world boss fates done if you haven't done those yet. participation has started to wane quite a bit on those and 6.0 they'll likely wane a bit more

dragon farming will probably be a bit hit or miss in 6.0

though will likely still see groups for it

[open ember]

And SHB content won't be dead on 6.0 tbh. It'll be still lively even if its not "current" people always and still do older content (See Eureka, Heaven on High, ect)

Now it won't be AS lively as it once was but that doesn't mean people won't do it or will be "dead"

[jolly sorrel]

Not Savage, but I'll get the Ex fights done at least.

[remote lintel]

people still farm kamuys so theyll probably still farm dragons

[leaden ginkgo]

In shields,should i look for block strenght or block rate?

[remote lintel]

doesnt matter

[open ember]

You'll be able to unsync it for Endwalker because level cap raise

Which makes it a bit faster

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a disciples on hand job thats the best?

[warm snow]

hand job

No

Most people recommend levelling them all at once

[little swift]

Highest ilvl. Both states are equal at higher level shields. If you're a white mage or black mage they don't use them later

[warm snow]

Since they all share gear

[leaden ginkgo]

Share gear? How so?

Oh u mean like

Armor and such

[tacit jungle]

crafter gear is crafter gear, regardless of job

yeah

[open ember]

The only thing they don't share is tools

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok intresting

[open ember]

As long as it says "Disciple of Hand" it can be worn on all crafters

[warm snow]

There's a lot of overlap too

You're making an axe with lumber and a metal head held together with woven twine

Etc.

[leaden ginkgo]

How about the other category disciples on land?

[tacit jungle]

they all use the same skills too. so you can copy your hotbars from one crafter to the rest

[warm snow]

Gatherers share gear

Botanist and miner are functionally identical

And fisher is its own thing

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok

[warm snow]

Most crafters use both botanist and miner materials

Cul is sometimes needs fish and alchemist very rarely needs fish

[twilit jewel]

The ronkan weapons u buy with nuts, is there a way to dye them?
I can dye the gear but not the weap

The ronkan weapons u buy with nuts, is there a way to dye them?
I can dye the gear but not the weap

[sullen barn]

I have a question

why can people send me tells from other worlds on my server but I can't send them any back

[twilit arch]

nope @twilit jewel

[twilit jewel]

dang

[remote lintel]

@sullen barn wonky game systems

[twilit jewel]

THey look so sick, would have loved a lighter color varation

[sullen barn]

is there anything I can do about this?

[tepid jackal]

I unlocked wondrous tails but I can't seem to find the menu for that, where is that found?

[strange coral]

It's in your key items

[twilit arch]

its an item in your key items section of your inventory

[little swift]

If you have a book its in your key items

[tepid jackal]

Oh gotcha, ty

[remote lintel]

the person has to be online and not in an instance @sullen barn

[little swift]

Also

!faq wondroustails

[zinc orbit]

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

[sullen barn]

what if they are online and not in an instance but it still doesn't go through

this happens all the time when I put up a party finder

[faint flare]

You can't send cross world tells to people not on your friends list

Or not hosting a pf

[remote lintel]

the leader of the PF cant message people on different worlds

[faint flare]

Its stupid as hell but

[sullen barn]

I always felt something was wrong but thank you for clarifying

[rough fossil]

When playing DRG during big line pulls, is it better to try and keep up Disembowel or just keep spamming Doom Spike without buffs?

[faint flare]

Put disembowl up while the tank pulls if possible

I think if there's....8? Or something mobs then refreshing disbowel isn't worth it

Its wack maths

[rough fossil]

Problem is the way I have my hotbars set up I have to pause to do Disembowel and sometimes I get left behind

[rough fossil]

That is intense

[faint flare]

Ok fair enough

[little swift]

Rearrange your bars then

Disembowel is a regular part of the Dragoon rotation on single target too

So you should have it in an easy to access place

[rough fossil]

Hm okay I have always kept the Disembowel combo on left and the Vorpal Thrust combo on the right but I guess I can switch them up

Will take some getting used to though for sure

[robust sail]

What is the difference between the squadron members?

[cursive abyss]

How do I update my nickname for this server?

[twilit arch]

pretty much how they look. you can change their classes so that's pretty whatever

[wintry chasm]

Click FFXIV on the top left

[twilit arch]

so if you want a full potato squadron, feel free to recruit just lalafels

[cursive abyss]

Thank you.

[wintry chasm]

Is there any particular Bozja drops that are rare in terms of emote or mount? I never really did much of Eureka either but I remember the dino in Anemos being fairly common enough. Wondering if it's worth buying these on MB

[twilit arch]

the gold gabriel mount is somewhat rare since its drop from last boss of DR

[wintry chasm]

100% chance?

[twilit arch]

hahahaha

[wintry chasm]

I see

[tacit jungle]

2?

maybe

[glossy flare]

goes for millions on the mb

[twilit arch]

ask hedge how many he's seen in all of his runs, it'll give you an idea

[glossy flare]

go figure

[wintry chasm]

@sturdy hemlock

[tacit jungle]

It's rare enough that its 10-15million on the MB

[wintry chasm]

It's 4 mil on my server

[sweet leaf]

hi, question: what is a fellowship? thanks in advance
(i just got invited to one lol)

[sturdy hemlock]

Hmmmm? I've been called?

[tacit jungle]

oh it's dropping

[twilit arch]

fellowships are basically bulletin boards @sweet leaf

[wintry chasm]

How many gold gab mounts have you seen drop in DR?

[sweet leaf]

nani

[sturdy hemlock]

In the 226 DR runs I've done

I've seen Gold Gab drop ONCE

[open coral]

It's a chat board, basically.

[wintry chasm]

Fuck

Me

[sweet leaf]

oh lol

[leaden ginkgo]

could be lucky tho

[twilit arch]

afaik fellowships are more used in JP than EU/NA

[leaden ginkgo]

got my gold gab in 18 runs

[open coral]

The old term is "BBS" short for "bulletin board system"

Bulletin board for short.

[sweet leaf]

thanks

[sturdy hemlock]

Oh yeah RNG plays a huge role in this

I've seen everything drop once (outside of the tabletop stuff)

I've yet to see the minion drop so

[open coral]

Which minion? The one from the regular Bozja crates?

I've gotten that like 5 times.

[sturdy hemlock]

Nah there's a mini Queen

[open coral]

Ooh

I've only run DR twice lol

[twilit arch]

princess is savage

[open coral]

I've seen nothing

[sturdy hemlock]

Oh it's savage? Then nevermind I've seen literally everything drop once

The hair took the longest at nearly 200 runs

[wintry chasm]

so the only question I really have then is as the Bozja experts, how much easier do you think they'll make this drop?

[twilit arch]

DR is pretty easy

[tidal bronze]

Hi guys I'm fresh meat, just wondering if it's possible to buy a jump package to get a lvl 70 dps then progress with the Conjurer story line. I don't mind skipping the story on class quest but not sure if I'd still be able to do my current class quest afterwards.

[wintry chasm]

is it?

[leaden ginkgo]

Do i have to grab all these or can i leave early next time?

[twilit arch]

its basically same difficulty as alliance raids

[agile laurel]

boosts skip job quests

[wintry chasm]

eh yeah I guess there is a savage

sure

[agile laurel]

wait

[jolly sorrel]

The more you grab, the more MGP you get.

[twilit arch]

just make sure you're using essence for more dmg

[jolly sorrel]

You get 2k for the exit, and 2k for grabbing all of those

[wintry chasm]

and to double check, gold mount is from DR normal

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok

[agile laurel]

sorry, didn't read what you said - boosting a dps will skip that dps's job quests. It will not skip cnj/whm quests OR the msq

[twilit arch]

yes, gold gabriel is from DR normal

[little swift]

Yes rng for the mount in the last chests

The personal loot thing works pretty well

[wintry chasm]

200+ runs of DR or 4 million gil....

[sturdy hemlock]

I mean to give you an idea Cal

my buddy Rondo did DR once and got it his first time

[little swift]

If its any indication I got it on run 11?

[sturdy hemlock]

well the hairstyle

[jolly sorrel]

Wonder why they put it up for as low as 4M if its that hard to get.

[tidal bronze]

Awesome that's exactly what I was looking for, thanks @agile laurel, Im currently playing the beginner quest for Conjurer w some friends so didnt want that to be skipped too

[errant sparrow]

is there not a new tomestone in 5.5?

[little swift]

Sheer number of people doing it tael

@errant sparrow no

[twilit arch]

no, 5.5 isnt a new tier

[open ember]

Its generally not worth it to farm DR JUST for the hairstyle to sell for gil. You could do 1000 runs and still not get it. You can make almost that much doing something more tolerable and faster

[sturdy hemlock]

It's basically just a case of how lucky you are

[scarlet arrow]

afaik there will be no more new tomestones until Endwalker

[wintry chasm]

Oh uh, speaking of these mounts and stuff, didn't they remove the Eureka ones from being sellable on MB?

[twilit arch]

no

[dim ridge]

for lota, if you were to unsync it, you can't do it with just three, can you? because of pads?

[twilit arch]

t-rex as never sellable, but the others are still able to be sold

[little swift]

Theres no point in a new tome were at expac ilvl cap already

[agile laurel]

you could, you'd have to do them one by one

[dim ridge]

you can't exit

[errant sparrow]

Okay, that was my misunderstanding. Thanks all.

[twilit arch]

lota requires 4 ppl per pad

[agile laurel]

Oh shite

yeah

forgot abt that

[open ember]

Unsyncing lota with 3 people doesn't work

Just because of the pads

[dim ridge]

like you can't go in-- ty confirming for a bud

[little swift]

Only syrcus is probably 3 mannable

[dim ridge]

what's the min for lota then?

[open ember]

I tried it with friends and we were decimated at the pads

[twilit arch]

probably around 15? 4 per pad + 1 per lane to kill the atomos

[open ember]

Its faster to just sync it anyway than to find a unsync group

[dim ridge]

maybe 12 if summoner? lol

[twilit arch]

yeah unsync lota is arguably more work than worth

[strange coral]

Maybe 4 per group, but they would have to take turns. Eg A on pad, while B kills miniboss, then B on pad while C kills miniboss

Or whichever way it goes

[twilit arch]

or yea that could work

[open ember]

That's more work tho

[strange coral]

Not sure how many are required for final boss pads though

[sturdy hemlock]

4 or so

but if you're all at 80 you can just burn the boss

[rough fossil]

Is there a way to keep my inventory from bouncing to Crystals instead of Key Items when I open it and had left off in Key Items previously?

[uneven tendon]

No but you’re misunderstanding it

There is ‘inventory’ for the one screen and ‘key items’ for the other

[rough fossil]

Oh yeah I was wondering. But is there a command for Key Items?

[austere agate]

Did the maintenance started?

[remote lintel]

no

[tender ice]

Is 5.5 out?

[glossy flare]

it will be tomorrow

[tender ice]

ty

[leaden ginkgo]

Does the class matter for retainers?

Job*

[rough fossil]

Maintenance starts at 6:00 pm PST I believe

[uneven tendon]

I don’t play on PC too much but go into keybinds under system and have a look at the shortcuts

[leaden ginkgo]

you can set one in "keybinds", its under "shortcuts"

[azure ivy]

Is the next relic step not out for 5.5?

[remote lintel]

all combat jobs gather the same things

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok

[glossy flare]

5.55

[rough fossil]

Ah I play on PS4

[uneven tendon]

Using only controller or with a keyboard?

[glossy flare]

5.5 will however bring new Bozja stuff

[rough fossil]

I only use keyboard for chat

[glossy flare]

which will most likely tie into the last relic step

so may as well start there

[uneven tendon]

Key items is under the ‘duty’ header when you press the options button whereas inventory is under ‘character’

Above duty finder IIRC

[rough fossil]

I’ve never noticed that!

Kind of strange

[azure ivy]

Gives me time to finish the DR step then!

[uneven tendon]

You typically don’t need the key items screen for very much. When you have to turn in an item you can press square in the turn in window and it will show a floating window of eligible items to submit. You might want to set one of the key items to your hotbar if you need it regularly like if you’re collecting aether currents in 3.0+

I think the only one that still bugs me on controller is one of the 4.x beast tribes where you have to use an item on a target, but for some reason there is no subcommand in the menu when you press square on it

[rough fossil]

Yeah I’ve been setting WT and relic books to a hotbar but it’s kinda messy to access

[slender sphinx]

Can someone please help me? To do my next LTHW quest I need master LTH 3 but it says I already own the item when I go to buy it for scrips in Gridania.
It's not in my inventory
not in my chocobo
not in my retainers

[boreal storm]

go into recipes

[rough fossil]

I should probably just switch up my hotbar numbers to make some stuff easier

[slender sphinx]

where?

im in lthw recipes

[strange coral]

Accept the quest, then see what it wants you to make. Check your crafting log to see if you already have the recipes.

[slender sphinx]

I cant accept the quest

[uneven tendon]

Good use for WXHB where you double tap triggers. I use my L2 for mounts/maps and R2 for system macros

[boreal storm]

click the bag with the star in recipes

[slender sphinx]

I did

[viscid fossil]

is PLD easier for healer to heal in general?

[sour ruin]

/isearch Master

It will search everywhere you have storage

[glossy flare]

Not easier than any other tank

[modest igloo]

since PLD shouldn't be healing normally, its the same as every other class

[slender sphinx]

I did the isearch and it says I only have 7 and 8 which I can see in my inventory. But not 3

[remote lintel]

pld isnt any easier to heal

theyre all the same

[strange coral]

What does it say when you click Accept?

[uneven tendon]

Use those master recipes anyway btw, no need to hold onto them

[viscid fossil]

ok sometime I notice... some tanks are squishy

[slender sphinx]

And when I go to buy LTHW 3 I get this

[viscid fossil]

some are lasting very long

[slender sphinx]

I cant use them I need level 80 @uneven tendon

[glossy flare]

probably a difference in gear then

[remote lintel]

or they arent using their cds

[glossy flare]

or they are not using defensive CDs

[glossy bay]

Trying to message someone on the same server... is it “‘/tell first name last names@World Name?

[boreal storm]

You probably used the master recipe book then

[remote lintel]

@glossy bay yes

[glossy bay]

Keeps saying message to that person not sent

😦

[remote lintel]

they have to be online and not in an instance

[glossy bay]

Ah ok

[slender sphinx]

I didnt use it though because I cant do the quest @boreal storm

it says I need to use it

[jolly sorrel]

Does there exist a list of dailies and weeklies in this game?

[strange coral]

What does it say/do when you click Accept?

[warm snow]

It'll tell you that whether you have it or not

[viscid fossil]

Is this... (memory from 10 years ago wow..) = pally bubble?

[sour ruin]

yes

[remote lintel]

its an invuln

[modest igloo]

the timers menu gives you most of the weeklies/dailies

[viscid fossil]

lol!

I got pally bubble!

[warm snow]

Basically the recipe for this quest is from that book, so it's warning you in advance

[jolly sorrel]

Thanks. What are the rewards for the Masked Carnivale weekly?

[warm snow]

Times and seals

[modest igloo]

seals, poetics, gil

[jolly sorrel]

Plenty or spare change?

[modest igloo]

an ok amount, if you're grinding out for an anima weapon its good

think about 500 for all 3 weeklies iirc

[jolly sorrel]

I guess that's decent

[ivory gull]

Is the new Bozja zone and ranks will be in this patch or will it be in 5.55 ?

[modest igloo]

5.55

[warm snow]

5.55

[ivory gull]

the relics will also be in 5.55 too right ?

[modest igloo]

yep

[frozen wind]

how do i make orchestra roles?

i have a bunch of reagent rolls but not sure how to use them

[remote lintel]

you need alchemist

[boreal storm]

Alc for ink, carp for rolls

• the faded roll from content

[frozen wind]

ahh so this is uselss for me

i guess i can just sell them on teh mb

i wonder for how much though

[open coral]

Depends on the roll. The common ones aren't worth listing, but some of the rarer ones might sell for a bit.

[rose oak]

do i need to do all the quest in firmament to go into diadem?

[strange coral]

Just the intro ones

[rose oak]

i mean i have done most and i still cant go in

nvm was talking to the wrong guy

[leaden ginkgo]

Whats HQ mean in crafting?

high quality

Ok

[open coral]

[glossy bay]

Would you do main story quest first or immortal flames?

[open coral]

Items with that icon on them.

[open coral]

MSQ is priority.

[glossy bay]

ok

[open coral]

Immortal Flames is your GC, that's a secondary objective, not required.

[leaden ginkgo]

some quests require items you deliver to be HQ, and otherwise HQ items carry higher stats, for example with food giving better stats than their no quality counterparts

[cursive abyss]

Is it just me, or can you tell whether a cutscene will be voiced or not before anyone says anything?

[remote lintel]

cant really tell

[sharp flax]

It says there is maintenance tonight from 01:00 in the morning till 10:00, is it actually that long?
Or is it that they just say that time but it might just take a hour or 2 like most other games ive played?
1st time i see maintenance since i came to this game.

[jolly sorrel]

It's that long.

At best it'll end 30 minutes early, but don't expect it

[remote lintel]

major patch maint is always long

[modest igloo]

for 5.4 is was 24 hours

[brazen cypress]

Aether, Crystal and Primal. Which one is US East? or are they not west, central and east?

[twilit arch]

they're all in Cali

[brazen cypress]

riiiip

[modest igloo]

im in east and its not too bad on ping

[brazen cypress]

define not too bad, because I usually get <20ms in most games

[modest igloo]

im at 75, and i play MCH well, the class that loses the most on bad ping

[crimson crystal]

You won't notice at all

[brazen cypress]

aight~

thanks

[crimson crystal]

I have European friends on NA data centers

[heavy wadi]

I'm on crystal and on the east coast, I never have latency problems, it's p smooth

[leaden ginkgo]

Just wondering can i lvl up other jobs by doing a high lvl quest and then turning it in on a lower lvl?

[strange coral]

No, it won't let you turn in the quest if you try

[crimson crystal]

No, you can't turn in quests at a level higher than your current level

[leaden ginkgo]

Heck so i gotta lvl all these jobs by straight up crafting

Got it

[crimson crystal]

Leves are great for leveling crafters

[modest igloo]

leves are just repeatable quests that give you great xp

i dont think i crafted at all for my CUL to 80

[leaden ginkgo]

Ye but... i probably should do recipe level ups tho right?

[modest igloo]

at first yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok 👍🏻

[modest igloo]

until about 20 ish, then ishgard restoration, then leves around 60 is what i recommend (assuming you're low on time and not gil)

[cloud lake]

Does the halo from the angelic set work for veirra?

[leaden ginkgo]

Paragon whats ishgard restoration

[faint flare]

A good way to level crafters and gatherers

[leaden ginkgo]

Got it

[cloud lake]

RIP@strange coral Thank you though

[mental oracle]

are old players joining extreme primals doing it from "dungeon finder 50/60/70"?

or with something else?

[strange coral]

Party finder

EXs don't come up in the 50/60/70 roulette

[twilit arch]

it does work for viera

its just hat picture is a little...bad for it because the halo itself is well above the ears

which are obviously cut off on the picture from the bot

[manic flare]

did they pushback the maintenance time for today?

[twilit arch]

no

[manic flare]

i hear two different times

[heavy wadi]

no, timezones

[manic flare]

9 PM EST and 1 AM EST

[heavy wadi]

timezones

[obsidian patio]

You may be thinking of the companion app maintenance for the one that starts at 1am EST

[leaden ginkgo]

Why -.- just take it it says u want it

[modest igloo]

is it HQ?

[leaden ginkgo]

Hq?

[modest igloo]

High Quality

[leaden ginkgo]

It shouldnt be the guy just gave it to me

Wait im suppose to make it?

It doesnt even show grilled trout as a option

Oh nvm i had to scroll didnt know scrolling was a thing

Where do ieven find a princess trout lmao

[gritty oracle]

Will we be able to buy every upgrade item with nuts tomorrow, from glaze to twine and ester?

[brazen cypress]

Can you change your class after making a character at any point?

[leaden ginkgo]

Ugh ima go to market# i guess

[gritty oracle]

Yes

[brazen cypress]

ok~ is armor based on class? or can anyone wear anything?

[gritty oracle]

It's as easy as talking to the other class's trainer and equipping a new main arm

[brazen cypress]

o~ no paywall, nice

thanks

[boreal storm]

Holasfhis upper decks (10.3, 13.6)

[gritty oracle]

Yes, most armour from lv50 and on is restricted. All healers, casters, tanks and tangeds share a gear set, but in melee DPS, everything is restricted to 1-2 classes

[brazen cypress]

I see

[gritty oracle]

like striking is mnk and sam, maiming is drg and the new melee, etc

[twilit arch]

that said there are certain items that have "all class" tag on them

those items are namely for glamour reasons

[gritty oracle]

Also in early game there's a lot more class sharing

iirc before 50, casters and healers aren't differentiated by gear

[twilit arch]

ye

and most of the physical dps wear the same stuff below 50

its more generalized grouping for 1-49 gear

[golden viper]

as a returning player thats lvl 60 what should i do ?

[magic light]

do msq

go cut some trees, make some things

[boreal storm]

Level up

[golden viper]

cut trees?

[magic light]

be a botanist

or go mining as a miner

what do you want to do?

[golden viper]

i have no ide

how is the dungeon situation still 1h wait time?

[remote lintel]

for what duty

[golden viper]

BLM

[magic light]

depends on timezone and what duty it is along with what class are you

[remote lintel]

no

the duty

[magic light]

yes, it's gonna take 1 hour

[remote lintel]

the name of the thing youre queueing for

[golden viper]

sooo i guess dps?

[magic light]

what duty is this

[golden viper]

damage dealer

[strange coral]

The dungeon. Dungeon is a type of duty

[magic light]

duty

[remote lintel]

what are you queueing for

[magic light]

what are you queuing for

[golden viper]

oooh idk i que every lvl 60

[magic light]

er

[remote lintel]

well

dont

do your msq and get shire gear if you dont have it

[magic light]

i don't think they know what idylshire is anymore or what shire gear is

[remote lintel]

its in their teleport menu

[leaden ginkgo]

If i hit lvl 50 in a hand of land job can my gear also work on a lower lvl if its lvl 50 to lvl 5 or 10? Or will it take it off automatically?

[frosty falcon]

each job has its own gearset

[magic light]

lvlsync kicks in for that scenario you're describing

your gear gets synced down for that instance

that's it

[remote lintel]

you cant equip a higher lvl piece of gear

if you dont meet the lvl

[leaden ginkgo]

Even if its a land job?

[boreal storm]

It’s the same as with regular jobs

[remote lintel]

yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Heck

[remote lintel]

every gear has a minimum equip lvl

you need to meet it

[leaden ginkgo]

I wish u didnt have to keep putting the gear on and off thats annoying

I wish when u swapped to it it would keep the gear on

[remote lintel]

you should have leveled all your gatherers together

then you can equip the gear

[strange coral]

Use the gearset function

[leaden ginkgo]

All of them are lvl 5 atm

[frosty falcon]

yeah use gearsets so you don't have to reequip

[magic light]

check #protips-and-ui

[remote lintel]

oh

lvl 5 isnt hard

[leaden ginkgo]

Gear sets?

[remote lintel]

takes like 10 minutes

[magic light]

specifically, this pinned message

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_63zLn_Bm7kyuHihEdpcTx2oRSJU2RBrUjGAaCxZSNM/edit?usp=sharing

problem

[leaden ginkgo]

Took me longer cus im figureing out stuff and what not

[boreal storm]

The + circle on your equipment menu

Adds gear sets

[magic light]

you're low level and don't have all gear slots or the job to sacrifice for macros

[wheat plume]

what's the normal way for obtaining Ultima Horns?

[remote lintel]

doing the fate

[magic light]

do a rare fate in azys la

[wheat plume]

is it hard to find/clear? to spend 30 esoterics in that instead of another mount i still dont have

[faint flare]

It takes a few days to spawn

Its the super fate of heavensward

[twilit arch]

you can join a hunt linkshel/discord like Centurio Hunts to keep an eye out for it

[magic light]

and it dies in a few minutes, good luck

[twilit arch]

they usually call out when rare fates like that spawn

[magic light]

they don't look good on me anyways

[wheat plume]

nice, thanks for the info

[remote lintel]

theyre undyeable which is the real crime

[keen kayak]

Can you trade in other tomestones for Poetics?

[minor dagger]

I don't think so anymore

[keen kayak]

Ah, sucks.

[minor dagger]

Because I think all the other tomestones are lvl 80

[languid folio]

how to tell if your daily leveling dungeon is reset or not?

[magic light]

ctrl+U

[faint flare]

Only when that tomestone ceases to exist can you trade it to poetics

[languid folio]

ty

[magic light]

wait

leveling dungeon resets on a timer

go to #kupo-bot-spam and do !daily

it shows the reset for it

[languid folio]

f

[remote lintel]

if you already did the leveling dungeon then the reward wont be displayed on the page

[languid folio]

[fading aurora]

Hey guys I'm new to ff14 Im currently playing the trial version to test the game out, is the best way to level doing main quest?

[strange coral]

For your first class/job, yes

[faint flare]

Its mandatory to do

So

Your level means nothing without main story progress

[fading aurora]

Do I have to do side quests or can I skip them?

[faint flare]

You can ignore yellows

They're just lore

Blue quests unlock SOMETHING

[heavy wadi]

these, specifically

[fading aurora]

Im willing to buy the game after I hit level 60 to see how the game is. I'm currently playing an arcanist and it seems pretty good

But I also want to be a tank but don't know which class is the best tank

[faint flare]

All of them

!faq meta

[zinc orbit]

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

[faint flare]

There's no bad jobs

This isn't wow

[fading aurora]

Is there a broken class in this game or are they all equal?

Lmfao

[faint flare]

Balance exists

[fading aurora]

Just as I typed that

U read my mind

[slate arrow]

There's no intentionally bad job

[magic light]

it's just a likely to be asked question

[slate arrow]

If there's something unbalanced, it's usually on expansion release and they're quick to fix it before the raid tier drops... Usually.

[strange coral]

People won't boot you or deny you in to a group because you picked a job.

[heavy wadi]

Just play what looks cool

[fading aurora]

I looked at some videos and saw the arcanist and the summons late game looked cool so that's why I went for it

But I love tankinv and since there are so many in FF I don't know which one to go for

[faint flare]

Whatever looks cooler

They're all capable

[strange coral]

Well you can play all of them on one character, so if you don't like the first one you try, you can try a different one

[leaden ginkgo]

are there custom delivery people that you can't glamour when you hit max satisfaction?

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

M'naago and the dragon?

[faint flare]

Mnaago and the dragon boy

[fading aurora]

Ok last question before I go and level some more, is this game pay to win in any way?

[leaden ginkgo]

gotcha so that's what that is, thanks

[faint flare]

No

[leaden ginkgo]

this game is not pay to win

it's the opposite of Star Trek Online

[slate arrow]

There's quite literally no cash shop in game

[fading aurora]

Not even for fashion stuff?

[remote lintel]

its a website

[slate arrow]

Not in game, no.

[remote lintel]

the cash shop

[leaden ginkgo]

oh there's cosmetic stuff yes

pretty outfits for RPers

[wintry chasm]

girl

[remote lintel]

theyre mostly cosmetics

[faint flare]

Shh

[fading aurora]

I came from guild wars 2 where fashion is life so I'm glad they have that here

[slate arrow]

There's level and job skips but there's nothing that directly affects endgame performance

[remote lintel]

most of the cool fashion can be gotten in game

cash shop is mostly casual clothes

[leaden ginkgo]

Seby, come visit Balmung! There are dance clubs and all sorts of things where you'll see those outfits and a plethora of fashion all the time.

[remote lintel]

not like cool armor

[fading aurora]

I have no clue where that is hahaha I've played this game to level 10

[leaden ginkgo]

There also certain armor/glamour sets that you get as Veteran Rewards

[remote lintel]

balmung is on a different data center

cant visit

[leaden ginkgo]

oh I see, Seby is on Aether and not Crystal

Veteran Rewards are given out after you've been subscribed a certain amount of time

[fading aurora]

Thank you for all the answers guys I really appreciate it, it's nice to see the community is so kind

[remote lintel]

msq is the best part

[jovial tide]

Roughly how much damage increase do the best tinctures give these days?

But if that's too broad, perhaps melee and a strength tincture to narrow it down

[slate arrow]

!item Tincture of Strength

[faint flare]

Maybe 2% when used properly

[zinc orbit]

**Tincture of Strength** **:** Medicine : ilvl 430

You're supposed to press limit break when it gets to that point

At least, I think you are.

[faint flare]

525

[slate arrow]

Its the 5th button on the Roleplay hot bar

[manic flare]

so if melee dps LB3 is ST, and caster dps LB3 is MT, what is physical ranged LB3?

[faint flare]

Line aoe

Caster is circle aoe

[manic flare]

when would a ranged dps use LB3 vs caster dps?

[slate arrow]

Usually they can be used interchangeably, while it's preferable the melee uses it sometimes it's not possible

Some specific situations do call for specific LBs like in UwU wants Caster LB3 but that's a specific circumstance

(Well, UwU needs all the LBs and that's a unique mechanic)

[mental oracle]

does the monk have at least 1 ranged attack?

[slate arrow]

not "really" unless you count the AoE chakra spender

[mental oracle]

how big is the aoe?

[faint flare]

!action Enlightenment

[zinc orbit]

**Enlightenment** : lvl 74 MNK (1.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 220 to all enemies in a straight line before you.

Last major patch didn't have ot

Primarily cause yokai was going

[wheat plume]

IIRC last patch had the one that gave double MGP?

[mental oracle]

is moogle event going away tomorrow?

[obsidian patio]

That was just a seasonal event

[faint flare]

You wont get tomes after maintenance

[wheat plume]

are seasonal event same time each year?

[mental oracle]

oh

[faint flare]

Mostly yes

[obsidian patio]

Roughly

[faint flare]

Without covid fucking things

[wheat plume]

even that from double MGP? has it been every year at same month?

[faint flare]

Yes

Its call Make it Rain

[twilit arch]

make it rain previously has been in august

[faint flare]

Not exactly same month

But generally same time/season ish

[wheat plume]

just for curiosity, what was the celebration of make it rain? I know some are for irl holydays, but that one?

[obsidian patio]

It’s just a celebration of the gold saucer

[twilit arch]

er may/june

[obsidian patio]

Doesn’t really have a real world equivalent AFAIK

Just look at what jobs can wear the gear

[gleaming garnet]

Idyllshire is so incredibly similar to Hillsbrad Foothills in Wow Classic even down to the giant barrier like in the WoW Classic Dalaran Crater. Was this a comparison players made back when Heavensward came out?

[faint flare]

Idyllshire was very very run down and broken when heavensward came out

It changed over the patches

[hollow violet]

I'm sitting just under 50 esoteric tomes and can grab 1 more mount before the event ends. Is Trex or nightmare the harder one to get farming normally? Those are the two I hear people talking about most.

I already have Falcon and Bliussful Kamuy Fire

T rex, its rng from eureka boxes

Nightmare you can just take 20s per run in Garuda ex to farm it

[midnight slate]

Can I roll for a mount if I already have it?

[faint flare]

No

[rotund trail]

Would moving the game to a ssd increase fps or would it jjst be load times?

Also if my graphics is integrated if I add more ram from 4gb to 8 help with fps?

[slate arrow]

just load times

[strange coral]

Integrated graphics is the main thing holding you back. SSD likely wouldn't improve FPS. RAM might a little.

[tardy patio]

how easily can I loot the anemos trex if I only go into eureka casually from time to time? is it as rare as the Gabriel?

[obsidian patio]

Rarer, but you get a lot more coffers overall compared to bozja

[tardy patio]

Oof... Ive only seen Gabriel twice since bozja launched, and thats with turning in all my delubrum field notes into boxes, and thats with a relic finished on top of the weeklies

[slate arrow]

eureka you can get a box like, every kill because of the chain system

not bozja

[obsidian patio]

And the later Anemos fates drop like 20 coffers

[tardy patio]

Ah ok. So if I slip into anemos one day and just run with the zerg that might be there, I could get the trex rather quick

[slate arrow]

maybe

[tardy patio]

I wont farm up another 50 tomes before maint then ty

[bleak topaz]

Can someone help me I got the relic weapon blm to 515 what should i be looking to put the refinement points into?

But usually crit > dh > det

Since BLM does have the Spell Speed build

Ooooh alright thanks 😄

so since they use spell speed buiilds i dont have to put points into that?

if im understanding that correctly

no, you put everything into spell speed

Oooooh

Crit/spell/then the 3rd is whichever?

what's the general price for the mats to upgrade crafteds?

[warm snow]

Depends on the material and server

[slate arrow]

I don't believe the upgrade campaign starts until the PS5 version is out yes

[heavy wadi]

they're for tomestones

[young zenith]

ty ty

[heavy wadi]

I just was wondering if there was a trend so I can predict how much I need to upgrade my exarchics

[slate arrow]

x Rain is 100 each, I believe it's 8/4/2 for chest,legs/head,arms,boots/belt and accessories respectively?

I might be wrong

[warm snow]

Oh those materials

What the industrial revolution said

[slate arrow]

used x cause im not sure what it'll be called until the patch is out

[heavy wadi]

thank you, Industrial Revolution

It's crystalline rain

just wanted to know how much work it'd take to upgrade my exarchics the first week into this patch

[open ember]

Its really easy

Its gonna use Allegory tomes

[heavy wadi]

yeah ik

and it seems like the rain for neo-ish augment was only 50 tomestones so

[obsidian patio]

I think they got discounted in 5.4? I’d have to double check

[delicate field]

will upgrading excharchic gear wipe out materias from it?

[slate arrow]

yes

since you're trading in the existing gear for tokens

you then trade in the tokens for new gear

[delicate field]

oh i see

[glossy bay]

How long will it take to get through the first few story lines ? There’s so thing you can buy in the shop to finish ARR etc

Or is it worth going through all of them

[slate arrow]

we don't recommend skipping

[glossy bay]

Ok

[faint flare]

Depends how you get distracted, but 50 ish hours for arr

Watching stuff

[glossy bay]

I’m skipping through a lot of the videos now

Just too long

How many other stories are there?

[faint flare]

Its one continuous story

Arr leads into heavensward leads into stormblood leads into Shadowbringers

[glossy bay]

Like hundreds of hours ?

[faint flare]

For the entire MSQ yes it will take awhile

Cause its basically 4 whole games

In one

[warm snow]

soon to be 5

[glossy bay]

Just annoying how MSQ is 20 levels below me

[faint flare]

And its 90% of the game

It catches up

[glossy bay]

Ok

[warm snow]

Take this opportunity to level multiple jobs

[faint flare]

Just hold off on doing daily roulettes for a few days

[warm snow]

Especially if you have the road to 70 buff

[glossy bay]

What’s that

[faint flare]

Xp buff for a preferred server

Doubles all xp

[warm snow]

It'll be an orange star looking thing

[glossy bay]

So my black mage is level 37 and lancer is level 7, MSQ is level 20

Should I switch to lancer or continue with mage

[faint flare]

You can use lancer to catch up

20 really isnt that far

Hunting logs to lv15 then do a few dungeons

[glossy bay]

Ok so for sure use lancer yea

Will take a while to fully get to grips with all this game has to offer lol

Thx for help

[warm snow]

Msq tends to give a crapton of exp

But once you get to the patch content, basically the content that came out between expansions, it'll give a lot less until you get to the next expansion

[glossy bay]

Yea MSQ gives a shit load

[leaden ginkgo]

Whats mooching?

[faint flare]

Using a HQ fish as bait to get different fish

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh inctresting

How do i moch my fish in first place or is that under culanarian?

[oak ice]

When you catch an HQ fish the ability lights up

[faint flare]

Fisher

[agile laurel]

only certain fish CAN be mooched, only HQ ones til you get access to mooch II, and only the fish you just previously caught

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh moch is a ability ok

[agile laurel]

!action mooch

[zinc orbit]

**Mooch** : lvl 25 FSH (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Use the fish already hooked to your line to attract even larger prey.

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok

[rotund trail]

Would more ram on integrated graphics improve fps? Currently only have 4gb ddr4

[simple atlas]

Yes

How much it helps though is depending on the rest of your specs. Don't expect a massive boost

[manic flare]

what's this hairstyle?

[simple atlas]

I think

[twilit arch]

yes its early to rise

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a minimum rank in bozja do use rend armor

[gritty falcon]

I'm leveling alt job for the first time on free trial. What is the highest efficiency for earning exp over time?

[faint flare]

You need a minimum rank to identify the fragment

[faint flare]

!faq altlvlguide

[zinc orbit]

Leveling Guide for Alt jobs 🍻

Level 1 to 70 in five days (Stormblood)

[faint flare]

Read here

[remote lintel]

@gritty falcon hunt logs and fates under 15, 15+ roulettes, highest lvl dungeon spam, beast tribes

[leaden ginkgo]

do you know if the rank is 15? i assume it is

[faint flare]

I believe it says on the fragment

I think some of the new essenses aren't 15

Since you can use pures in normal

[twilit arch]

yes its 15

[gritty falcon]

I only have leveling and guildhest duty roulette right now, are those better or worse than picking the highest lvl dungeon I can access?

[twilit arch]

its from forgotten fragment of contention

[gritty falcon]

My MSQ is only lv 35 for context so I haven't unlocked some of the content in that guide posted earlier

[faint flare]

Levelling roulette once daily then highest level dungeon

Guildhests are pretty bad

[gritty falcon]

does leveling roulette scale based off my current level or what?

[faint flare]

Yes

[gritty falcon]

so I should run it at the end of my play session I guess...?

[remote lintel]

do roulette first

then spam highest lvl dungeon

[candid ruin]

Are the skills etc saved? So i dont have to set them all over again when i switch back to previous class?

[remote lintel]

yes

[jade quartz]

Class switching is smooth and no trouble at all

Like I said, you press a button to switch

and you're good to go

fully geared, hotbars ready

[leaden ginkgo]

Yup.

[candid ruin]

that's great

[remote lintel]

assuming you saved the gear set

[jade quartz]

You can switch anywhere that's not in a dungeon/raid or in combat.

[candid ruin]

can't wait to try it

finished gw2 story already, played entire Kingdom hearts franchise in 2021

was looking for next story game, thought ff14 will be a good choice

[remote lintel]

youll definitely get a good story

and a ton of content

[candid ruin]

the only problem is a subscription tho, im not a fan but well, im sure it will be worth it at least for month or 2

tho, i have to buy newest expansion?

[remote lintel]

yes

[jade quartz]

You can play the free trial

[candid ruin]

i know

[jade quartz]

It's not time limited and you can play through all of the base game and first expansion

Only limitations are social/trade

[candid ruin]

yeah, thats a good thing

[fallen niche]

Are there any overworld ways I can get poetics aside from A/S ranks while in a party

[candid ruin]

well i will play it like solo rpg

played swtor ;D
