Oki thank you
12x1..6x3...1x12 etc
I'm gonna make it tiny
Im good at memorizing skills I might aswell play with no ui lol
Wait, you have to pay monthly to keep playing this game?
Yes
But I already paid... how much is it?
How do you start a vote kick for afk people in msq roulette?
!faq subprice
Unless u play trial which is infinite but u are capped at 60
Party menu > rightclick member > kick. That said... its MSQ roulette, I mean.... it's MSQ roulette.
so $12.99 every 6 months
No
12.99 every month
no, you pay 12.99 every month or if you do 160 days you pay it all upfront for 77$
thats pretty expensive.
Man I'm happy with my Legacy sub. Geez that makes a difference.
tbh if you don't need alts, just stay on entry
how so
what's legacy sub?
Most good mmorpgs are subscription only
Legacy sub is for people who played in 1.0
They have a permanently discounted sub
As a thanks for playing a fucking dumpster fire
both our tanks were afk from the begining so we had to tank ourself
If you've been subscribed for the largest part of 1.0, after SE announced they would be scrapping the game anyway, you get a discount.
so if i stick with 1 character, what am I paying
Entry
even if they unsub?
can you seperate hp and mb bar in HUD layout?
Yes
no
Wait they wanted to scrap ff?
is there a way to make only interruptible boss spells much more visible in HUD?
How did they save it
by making a much better game
1.0 was a bin fire
They canned the game and remade it
And this is what we have now
with the new card system, I can have three 3-star, one 4-star and one 5-star?
Look up any 1.0 footage and you'll see what I mean
I have the cast bar from the target set to 200% and centered in my screen.
Separate the cast bar from the enemy hud thing in hud settings and then make it bigger and somewhere easier to grab your attention
it's very moddable
but most mods are graphics mods
skin mods/clothing mods
Are there any ui ones
you will have to look
although i think vast majority of the mods are nsfw mods
the only one people really use UI wise is material UI, but it's currently not compatible with the new 4k icons
can you dye a glamour plate ?
I searched ui and it gave me a minimal ui mod
I might try it
I want my ui clean
And not massive
like I said, may not work with the new high res ui
its already very customizable with the default ingame hud editor
I'll have to test it
so, I'm trying to figure out how to add my card to the online store, I was directed to the square-enix website. Do I need a subscription to buy something from the store?
Anyone have a clean ui setup they are willing to share?
you can't really "share" ui configs besides just screenshots
ah lmao
People over at #protips-and-ui can help you with that one
here's mine, it's relatively clean https://i.imgur.com/QPOmSsR.jpeg
can you do level 61-69 dungeons unsynced for wondrous tails?
anything ffxiv related you'll want to do through mogstation, i'm not sure there's a way to add a card to the store permanently other than like, chrome remembering it or something like that
I think I just did it
you can do anything unsynced
@fading aurora Must clarify, modding the game is against ToS. However, they can't find out if you don't tell, so it's a don't-ask-don't-tell basis
you can dye items on the glamour plate when editing it, then spend that dye to save the glamour plate, or, you can dye an item in the glamour dresser and apply the dyed item to every plate you want

My friend tried to download the free trial and this happened 🥴 how to solve it
is your friend playing the chinese version?
their computer might just be chinese
just says something like (no response) and confirm, I think
what is this glam?
can i as a subscribed player trade with free trial ppl?
@agile laurel I didn't know it was against tos I thought people could mod like world of Warcraft
Nope. Not in the slightest.
New nier gear
However, unlike world of warcraft, XIV lacks any client side checks to verify if files are modded
So, uh, in practicality go nuts
i think the against tos is to give SE some room for legal maneuver if they do crack down on modding, but i dont think in the 7 year history of FFXIV they've cracked down on people using mods, unless they were cheats
But keep some caution, and go at your own risk
I have never used cheats and never will, why would I want to ruin my experience
Lol
Basically, yes you can mod, but do so at your own risk (there isn't much risk)
mostly just viera who want hats
Are they gonna ban me for making a better ok
some people use auto hotkey programs to buy houses
those fall into RMT category don't they?
what falls into RMT category?
Basically, don't be a moron and say in chat 'hey I have mods lol' because if you're reported you will be banned
buying houses with like, auto hotkey
However, don't be a moron like that and you'll be fine
not really. if they aren't reselling the houses then it wouldnt be
idk lol
gil selling would be the classic RMT example
someone actually bragged about writing a script to buy housing in my CWLS, and still is playing the game 3 months later
Well unless they get reported nothing's gonna happen
They don't read every bit of chat that goes through the game
yea no one even reports that stuff
anyway he wasn't abusing it, just doing it to get a house for himself, so no one could really fault him
I saw someone selling gil or what ever it's called
They're hacked
Oof
Or used stolen cards
I’m 52 and my wife just started a new character, can I play with her as a different job and que with her when she gets to a story dungeon?
The gold seller people never use their own money
Yes
Sure
Can even queue with her with your lvl 52 job
I thought u said your age is 52
You will get synced down

But no msq for that second job right? Since I’ve done it
Exactly
If people have stolen credit cards they normally buy gift cards
Right click on it in the chat options and leave NN.
Question about Delubrum Reginae. Do I get tomestones of revelation only if I enter with a lvl80 character ?
You can't enter DR with a job below lvl 80
You can only enter it as 80
ok thanks, that answers xD
I thought it would be as the bojzan instance but it isn't
Well except for that bit it is exactly like Bozja
It uses the same sync and lost actions
can you enter CLL below level 80?
tbf I still haven't used any actions from it
Yes, 71+. Since it's just a CE
what are essences ? in the lost finds cache ?

Oh I see I have a few essences
it's one use right ? only for one instance, then I need to drop another ?
If you use it, it will stay on as long as you're in the southern front instance, but changing to a job that it doesn't apply to will remove it
considering I'll do DR, will it drop when I come back to gangos ?
Yes
is levi unreal the exact same as EX or did they nerf it like i randomly heard in some streamer's chat?
What’s the name of the solo instance OST playing during the level 50 MCH quest? ||while fighting house dzemael||
Just want to confirm this, we need a total of 351 tokens for full set of augmented exarchic, is this amount correct?
viera cant use the new hairstyle?
Probably not
Nope
rip
what savage materia should warrior use?
Speed to get to 2.38-2.4s gcd > crit > det > everything else
How long is the wait for recruitment codes? I keep being told try in a few mins
how do you augment exarchic gear?
How to upgrade Exarchic Gear
NPC: Hillicen, Eulmore (X:10.8 Y:10.7)
Rain Exchange: Purchase Crystalline Rain using Allegory. The amount of Crystalline Rain required depends on the gear you want to upgrade (see below).
Earn Eulmoran Certificates of Grandeur (HQ): Trade in your Exarchic gear for Certificates of Grandeur. When trading in HQ, you will receive exactly enough certificates for the Augmented version. Don't forget to retrieve materia!
Purchase Augmented Exarchic Equipment: Trade Certificates of Grandeur and Crystalline Rain for Augmented Exarchic gear.Rain cost: Weapon: 7, Head/Hands/Feet: 3, Chest/Legs: 5, Belt/Accessory: 2, (PLD Sword: 4. PLD Shield: 3)
Anyone free to help with hells lid?
can kujata goto every server right now?
when you augment pentamelded exarchic geaar, is the resulting item still pentamelded?
Breaking Boundaries, it's used a lot for those instances
No
No, you are trading in an item for a new item
Not modifying an existing one
can you pentameld augmented exarchic?
No
How long is the wait for recruitment codes? I keep being told try in a few mins
your materias will be lost
that's kinda bs. one of my buddies i think spent almost 1 mil pentamelding his gear
Lol who's even pentamelding this far into the tier
what do you mean?
Pentamelding is only really good for the first week of a new raid tier
Pentamelding only really is beneficial for when you are starting to prog a new tier
After that it RAPIDLY loses value
Cause there's just greater access to gear
And people actually have gear
Pentamelding at this point is a giant waste
pentamelding is slapping 5 materia onto 1 item right?
Yes
Yes
Which takes A LOT of resources
i can imagine
since the chances of it succeeding are slim
Unless you're me and didn't go over 15 materia per slot
Thanks so much for the answer 🙂
Top/dress is one of the neo-ishgardian tops
Straight from the author's comments
Miqote is: Far Eastern School Girl's Ribbon, Neo-Ishgardian Chestpiece of Casting/Healing, Shadowless Bottoms of Healing/Casting, and I'm honestly not sure of the gloves. I was told it was the crystarium gloves, but it doesn't match up.
On a new character( but no road to 60/70 buff) will just doing the MSQ and job quests be enough to get me to 60? Or should I cycle in the daily/weekly dungeon stuff too?
Following msq will keep you at the appropriate level
Yes for the most part
can elemental cross to mana now?
As it gives a metric fuck ton of exp
did they fix ucob heavensfall bug with this maintenance?
it should. There is a weird gap at 45~47-ish but its generally fine.
then whats the cross
Latest maintenance was just for cross world issies
There's only world visit
which dps classes have the highest burst damage? SMN?
I’ve been trying to do the hunting logs and I’ll cycle in some dungeons with a friend to try and avoid that disparity
Just doing daily levelling roulette keep you well ahead
SAM/BLM maybe RDM?
Idk what that is so I’ll need to look into it
Doing so on only a single job will probably put you above it, because some dungeons that you gotta go into gives you quite the hefty amount of EXP, still, it is recommended to do your daily roulettes whenever possible
Smn burst isn't amazing
Its literally the first thing you see when you open duty finder
fetes are every other day, right?
I would lean towards SAM for highest burst....with Hig, double midare and shoha
you get leveling roulette at lvl 17 when you unlock 2 dungeons. Bonus exp daily for a random dungeon
And Shintens
The heavensfall bug was purely visual anyways afaik
And Seigen
I was curious about that though. There’s no way to stop doing MSQ at higher levels to start an Alt cause then it’ll drop to a low level and I’ll get wrecked right?
You have other ways to level to catch up to the story
So basically if I hit 60 and still have MSQ to do that’s gonna be wasted exp?
Plus you get bonus xp for jobs under your highest level
If you want to deal the most amount of pain in 20 seconds, i think MCH is a good one, but after that, it's a steep fall-off
Unless I bring an alt to a reasonable level that cna handle the remaining MSQ
Yes if you dont own the expansions and are level capped
On the free trial? Yes
But ideally you wanna do daily on alt jobs
If I buy e newest expansion do I get all the old ones too?
Yes
Yes
technically yes but its not a big deal. its perfectly fine to waste them if you only want to play one job etc.
you cant even buy stormblood by itself anymore
Exp isn't a finite resource and the game gives you lots of methods to get exp
So don't be afraid of swapping jobs
Easy to catch up
I mean starting an arr job mid hw will take a while but it's not hard to casually level up a few jobs on the side
Now based on this, you could wait and buy endwalker and get SB and ShB with it
so it's good to use MCH for unsync'ed trials?
you gotta build up to queen. its not just unload 20 seconds the moment you load in
Hmm yeah once I get to like level 40 I’ll start dabbling in some other jobs
Thank you for the advice everyone
MCH is one of the better ones for unsynced trials
Highest ranged dps so it can avoid mechanics and still do enough dps to beat enrage
For unsync'd? Lvl 60 and below i do use MCH, but RDM and SAM are valid too(on solo)
I used to play WAR in Stormbloods update, lvl 50 tho, heard now that most tank classes are the same now though
is that true or do they still got key differences
They're basically the same/similar defensively
Their offensive and playstyle is different
I need help
I wanna buy ff14 for ps5 I own it on pc
But it won't let me
It won't let me buy it on the website either
did u used that ps account to play the free trial before?
I never had the free trial
I had it originally on pc
Ps5 beta is out so I got the ps5 upgrade
Hi I am planning to start plying ff14 today, would like to ask are u able to ply with friends from elemental if I am plying in Primal?
The problem I'm having is it won't let me buy the ps4/5 version
To play
@low crane pay money to switch or alt
So you cant cross server between JP and NA?
So can someone help me plz
ever since i swapped to legacy control mode my life instantly got easier
There is currently no cross-datacenter play available @low crane That function is on a list of "future things that have been confirmed"
We don't know when it will actually be implemented though, as they haven't given us a timeline for that.
alright
This makes 0 sense
We do know, it's coming in 5.58
We just don't know when 5.58 is coming
probably a few months before EW
Worth mentioning that while cross data center travel is planned we don't know how it'll work, it's entirely possible you still wouldn't be able to travel between regions
Is this website still relevant for crafting leveling? https://ffxivguild.com/ffxiv-cul-culinarian-leveling-guide-ffxivarr/

What do I do with the breach coin
Trade it to fathard with the other nier coins
For Cryptlurker upgrades
Armour and accessories
Exchange it along with one each of the Puppet's and Copied coins for Cryptlurker augmentations.
ah
They are all similar in terms of cooldowns.
WAR and DRK are pretty much identical with their rotation
PLD is the most versatile with a major part of its rotation being ranged magic
GNB has Continuation which means ur pressing more buttons, it feels very similar to a dps
I know when I’ll a tank job I’ll pick GNB or DRK I’ve loved both those in previous games
thats kind of disappointing, but I suppose theyre trying to figure out how to balance the jobs after the whole tank stance switch stuff
Tanks are balanced
What sucks is those are expansion jobs so I can’t start it as an alt yet
balance as in, how to differentiate them while being balanced
for the level 60 ironworks gather gear how should i materialize it
They are different
don't
They play different
Question, once I buy the expansion can I just start a GNB and it starts at 10? Or does it start at the expansion level range
Ah 😮
NIN starts at 50 right?
no
woow

only expansion starts higher
Hmm I think I’ll do another DPS and a healer as my Alts for now and wait to get to expansions for the tanks
I think the main reason they did this is cause they dont want another job to be as busted as WAR was for most of SB
Post Mortem’s Disciple of the Hand Leveling Rotations & Equipment ( Updated: Patch 5.41) Before we begin, Please review the following notes All Leveling Rotations listed are set up to work properly for all Jobs, assuming that you meet their Level & Stat specifications. All rotations include...
How is white mage versus scholar? As healer and what is more simple/friendly for beginner healers
White mage is the simplest
scholar is a more proactive healer
instead of reactive
also the delay on the pet shit makes me want to strangle the fairy
Ah yeah okay I prefer reactive for sure
Qq here; I bought the starter pack for pc which includes a free 30 day sub. Do I have to activate it asap or can I play thru the trial for a while before activating?
WHM is all hard heals and the easiest
SCH has a harder time healing but is great at preventing damage entierly
AST is good at both but is being reworked heavily soon
Thanks for the tips
@remote lintel so basically I could play til the end of ARR and then activate the code if I buy the shadowbringers pack?
WHM has dps too
yes mesquite
Hmm I’m playing on Ps5 with a controller so I think hard heals might be easier than constantly reapplying buffs/spells?
Hmm. Do both jobs get a revive?
all healers have a revive
all healers have rez
and 2 dps
All healers have a revive
Sweet
spam dungeon
PotD ?
potd caps at 60
the other one then
No
No, the other one, HoH, caps at 70
don't ShB levequests give good exp? or am i mistaken
for crafters
are the weapons that they give for the lv70 potions even good?
There aren't any combat leves past heavensward
@vestal remnant if you mean the job skip they give you a whole set of the scaevan gear
yeah those ones, are they good?
yes?
i have a friend's birthday coming up, and he really really likes gunbreaker
im here trying to plan out whats the quickest way to gift him one
my best option rn is to level skip, story skip, and manual the lv60
is it his first character
well if he's returning then he probably has a class close to 60
sold his acc
oh
im playing summoner and was wondering if its possible to hide the party list when its just me and my summon
It doesn't look like it. It's probably a left over thing from when summoner pets had HP bars. You technically weren't solo when you had them out.
is there a way to switch servers if you dont like the one you initially choose?
Hey all! Is fishing a fairly lucrative activity? I love fishing in most games and may start dabbling in it but I wanted to check with other experienced fishers
yes, there is also ocean fishing voyages in this game too
from which you can obtain mounts, minions, and other things
you can desynth them for stuff I guess
I wouldn't call it lucrative myself.
It's usually considered the least profitable of the gatherers since fish aren't used for much outside of some culinary recipes.
most of the lucrative stuff comes from crafting
@shadow wasp you wont make consistent money from fishing
basically
not just that but, you can get minions and mounts
Personally, I love it to bits and pieces. Fishing is super fun.
some fish can sell for million+, but they're ridiculously hard to get and not consistent
no
oh.
there is also an aquarium that you can construct and fill with fishes of your choosing
some mounts can be sold
oooh that's cool!
the mounts and minions from ocean fishing are from achievements
if it says "market prohibited" it cant be sold
Right, right.
Okay, well I will still do it for mounts/minions and for the rare fish.
SOunds like it could be fun either way
there's a few glowy fish/sharks/marine mammals/invertebrates that you can put in the aquarium which looks pretty neat
Oh rad! ahha that's so cool
the mount is a giant flying shark if you were wondering
and the minion is a tiny shark with legs
isn't there also a huge stingray mount?
that's from eureka
Do we know when The Firmament party event is gonna end?
There are 12 sets of fetes over a 24 hour period
And then a cooldown of 1 to 2 days before another set
Other than that were not given data on how.long this period of celebratio. Lasts
Okay, ty!

Anyone has tip for a lv9 Botanist to level up?
I have left my botanist lvl9 for 3 years lol I forgot where to get back to it again
Leves, lots of 'em
how do you guys map the keys to the key board? the easiest wauy?
Someone in #protips-and-ui just made a good writeup of that, scroll a bit up 🙂
ty ty
Man I farmed paglthan 11 times and still no healer robe
The desire sensor came with the stormblood crossover
Can you run multiple accounts from the same PC? And if so, can you get in trouble for it? I'm in need of a 2nd account as a middle man so I can trade items between my alts

Whats this option for in mogstation btw?
Do tradecraft leves stop at lvl 40?
No
They go to 80
Oh maybe its just my location doesnt go past 40 then lol
Basically
Hmmm
Just google level 50 leves
Ok
Each levemete only covers a specific range
iirc, the last levemete before HW is at Camp Whitebrim in coerthas central
Leves are centralised to specific locations in the expansions
@leaden ginkgo
Me
It adds a second account with the same login. When you login you pick which one you want to use. It still needs its own licenses though.
@leaden ginkgo https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/95tzhb/ffxiv_multiple_service_account_question/ this might answer you
I cant find any leves for me since i havent started dlc yet so
Looks like im stuck at lvl 50 for now :>
again, camp whitebrim in coerthas central
that is the highest level ARR levemete
i believe.
Ok ill try
Im looking for lvl 50 actualy
Myeah, just listing the missing piece 🙂
Ishgard, but you need to reach HW to do that
Ye i saw
if i spent tomes and bought the wrong piece of gear by accident, is it possible a GM could reverse this if i fill out a support ticket?
Iirc you get one reverse per account for a support ticket
you get one per account, apparently
I wouldn't waste it on tomestone gear
personally
But I wouldn't waste it on a tome misbuy
\
like.. it will literally mean nothing in a week
People say do it for accidentally discarding a late relic or similar
is this a good weapon for my scholar?
It's fine
ohhhh okay, that's a good call. thanks!! c:
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Do leves stay the same or change daily?
I mean, nothing wrong with it? assuming it's on level
Change every hour or so in arr areas
You'll be able to buy an ilevel 270 book with poetics once you hit lv60
So let me get this straight. Pentamelding Aesthete's crafting gear should be done with Maxing CP on every piece of gear prior to going for craftmanship and control right
Vendor in idyllshire
sb and shb had exp bonus earring attached to preorders -- when were they received?
upon preordering, or upon the expansions release?
Early access
depending on the item you want to socket the CP last to conserve materia as you can use low end CP materia with lower failure rates
As I understand it you got a code for preordering
Ohhh right some gear has +9 CP and that's when it's better to socket that sooner than later
also, there's a couple items you can only add +1 CP and it's probably better to just slam more control into them
what does the specified appearance mean?
It means when you made the gear set certain items were glamoured to look a certain way
And now they're nkt
But generally the accessories are the ones that get +6CP materia last
basically, yeah.
Okay got it
because lower level materia has a lower failure rate
so it's not a mistake to go for maxing CP as a priority then right
aesthete's has a couple slots where you can only add a single CP
The CP is more important than the craftmanship and control right
it's probably better to slam more control
When I change to an alt does it start at level 1 or level 10? And is basically the hunting log the best way to speed to lv 17 for the duty finder and dungeons
but aside from that yeah, you should be maximizing the CP meld
Okay thanks now I torture myself farming materia
assuming you mean alt class, it starts at 1.
hunting log, guildhest at 10, leves until 15
Thanks
then either spam dungeons if queues are good or potd if they're not, in terms of maximizing efficiency
and doing your roulettes daily
this might be obvious to you, but not all jobs unlock at level 1
only ones in the basegame
expansion jobs start somewhat higher
So rogue, marauder, arcanist, gladiator, thaumaturgist, conjurer, lancer, archer, Pugilist and all the craft/gather jobs start at lv1
Dark Knight, astrologian and machinist start at 30
Samurai and red mage start at 50
you might want to consider buying cheap whatever materia and slamming it in your gear if you're spamming collectables to farm scrips -- gear generates materia faster when it's fully melded
then just pull it out afterward
Dancer and gunbreaker start at 60
Sage and the new job being added with end walker will start at 70
Is there a place I could go to request someone to help me with a dungeon or trial? Is that socially acceptable in this game lol
Most people just queue and let the duty finder group them with randos
you could try putting up a PF, but really just queuing is generally the way
Making a party finder is used for farming old trials and raids
unless you're playing well off-peak and DPS, queues are generally not bad
What raid?
The Binding Coil of Bahamut Turn 1
goddamn
The arr raid series is all what we would call savage difficulty
Its not in any roulettes
There's ACTUAL mechanics therr and duty finder can't do mechanics
By mechanics we mean, if all 8 people don't know what to do: EVERYONE DIES
Definitely party finder if you want to go through the coils
Say you're a first timer and people will probably join for the bonus tomes
Oh and do it unsynced so that people can carry you with lv80 jobs
randoms are unlikely to clear it
You're very very unlikely to clear it the old fashioned way and honestly there's some nice story
if you want to do it sync'd it's something you're going to need to organize a bit with at least a PF, but it's effortlessly crushed unsync'd
But it'll also mean the return of arr alisaie voice...
Jeez the party finder is weird to use
I've never used it beforer
I dont qualify for anything lmao
Recruit members
the big problem with PF, imo, is it's introduced very early and it's this absolute clusterfuck of UI
To set up your own
and then there's absolutely no reason to interact with it
for hundreds of hours
then you get to the point where you'd use it and "what's this shit again"
not that description
Advertise unsync
put "unsync, first time bonus"
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.
people who need poetics or just want to help will come along
Do I need to be a subscriber to buy something on the online store?
this better>
yes, that should get you some help
Remove the roles too. You don't need the usual tank/healer/dps group. They can be whatever
make sure you hit unsynced on the duty finder window when you queue with the party as well
!
Ah, I keep getting the Error: i2501
what aril said
@brazen cypress try a different browser and disabling ad/popup blockers
try doing it from your phone or using your phones hotspot
Should be an easy clear with as few as 2 lv80 players
binding coil of bahamut 2: electric boogaloo
already have that in game
Lots of people are doing anima relic atm so the poetics will be tempting
@remote lintel phone doesn't work either
are you using a vpn?
nope
dyes and weapons
Inb4 his mobile provider has a mature filter
it doesn't
My weaver is almost level 60. But it needs to craft a HQ Holy Hat of Healing for the level 58 weaver quest. Thing is that I understand that I do not need the HQ versions of the materials to make it.
You don't Need hq materials but they'll increase the starting quality making it easier to craft a hq item
But it can take time to farm all of the materials needed to make said hat.
@brazen cypress try incognito mode on firefox
will do
Is there a way to play more than one note at a time on an instrument?
I've noticed that literally pressing two at the same time doesn't seem to work.
Is there an option that I am missing or something or?
it's really dumb, but the easiest way to handle it is to gather the materials and get a fully levelled crafter friend to do the actual crafting for you
if you know one
something note worthy is it's asking me to confirm character via lodestone, I'm not sure what it wants me to do besides logging into the character profile page
high level crafters can HQ anything below level 71 with two buttons
the confirm character button is just to make sure that it is indeed your character
For example. The Dravanian Mistletoes. It only appears during certain times of the day.
and not like some other guys character
have you tried to make the payment many times?
the error pops up after you try to pay?
if you're not on free trial and you're not in a hurry materials like that shouldn't be expensive on market
As soon as I pick a payment method, Error Code: i2501 comes up
might just have to contact support
according to a google search
yea
2501 is a payment issue
Anyone on Zodiark that could help me simply finish some old content unsynced? Some is a bit annoying solo even as lvl 50 stuff.
Which in that case. I am not on a free trial. am on the full version
@lethal mist make a party finder
Already done and waited a long time but when I typed here someone immediately joined. Typical "when you talk about it it happens".
just gotta complain and the gods shall deliver
The great news however is that I do have all the materials to make the hat. The problem is that I do not know many high level crafters. Let alone those that are in my FC.
you can trial synth and see if you can HQ it yourself
before burning the mats to actually do it
i just bought the mats from the mb
and crafted it
if youre lvl 60 then just craft it yourself
I remember some of the hw crafting quests having obnoxious material requirements, so i think I waited until I was like.. 70 and simply crushed them with sheer stats
because I didn't want to have to farm more than once and I was poor
And I did check my stats on my Alchemist. There is one requirement that I have not met. Which is Craftsmanship.
get better gear
can this buff trigger more than once on the same challenge log category?
Only once
it gets dispelled once you get a recruit
My current Craftsmanship on my Alchemist is 409. The recommended requirement to make the hat is 529. Ouch.
Sounds like your gear is really shit
If its like that at 60
Take time to get yellow scrip gear at 60
The level 60 has class specific armor, it's not worth it
Not yellow scrip
Its a vast upgrade
I will post a screenshot to show you what I mean
@rustic flare check your pm
Blue scrip gear are class specific, accessories work for all
Yeah i68 looks...really low
At 60 I'm using this
I thought those are level 50?
Does anyone know how long Fetes are going for?
unknown
But probably forever
The restoration is done so its just celebration now
And there shouldn't be any more updates for ishgard
Why does it say 8/12 for me for fetes? Yesterday it said 2/12. What happens when it gets to 12 D:
Oh I see I see thank you
Also is there anything else you can get from the fete presents that you can’t get from the person you turn in the fete tokens?
yes there is
Does anyone have a list of what comes in the presents?

Im trying to get recruits from the Gold Saucer with the Squadron Enlistment Manual Buff but after I got the first recruit with the buff even with the buff re-applied I havent gotten another and I have almost completed the Gold Saucer Log
Oh nvm I think I know what the problem was
A ranks respawn every 12 hours right
my enlistment papers were full
What do I do when I order shadow bringer collector edition
But it's saying I don't have it for ps4
do you have the base game
2-4 hours
Does anyone know where I can farm the Crawler Cocoon and Silkworm Cocoon?
i have a quest i need to have gear lvl 5 equipped, can i know where to get that?
Silkworm comes from vegetation in East Shroud. Crawler comes from mobs of the same name in Dravanian Hinterlands.
just buy a piece of gear from a vendor
Buy a hat from nearby vendors
does which deity i chose matter?
Nope
gotcha
next question, i wnana be a mage, but idk i should go black mage route or scholar route
suggestions for a noob
well do you want to dps or heal
black mage is a dps, SCH is a healer
And if you want SCH you have to play a dps for a bit anyway
i haven't a preference, i normally like to play someþing people lack in þeir party, but, since i don't have a party idk what would be fitting rn
Any of them are fine. You can change between classes if you don't like the first one you pick.
healers do get queue privilege though
black mage focuses on doing big dps and doesnt have any party buffs, scholar is a proactive healer that leans towards shielding people
last and very dumb question, for black mage, do þey have a traditional Vivi looking costume? (þat is affordable aka less þan 300,000 gil)
as opposed to reactive healers like whm that heal after dmg has already been taken
is there a way to change duty finder settings? Like language etc?
Yes, one of your job gears look similar
You get job gear at level 50
Cog wheel button on the top corner of the duty finder window
ah þank you, þan i might do black mage for now, (just how easy is it to change job? does it cost an item, or gil?)
@strange coral im so blind, thanks
You can become any job after lvl 10
Unlock job > equip weapon > done
i can press a button and switch to any class i have at will outside of combat
You've that job
oi oi dont forget the jobstone
ah mk, þanks so picking a job isn't as much of a commitment as i þought
you can have every job on 1 character and can switch between them whenever
not in combat obviously
Nope you can be every job all on one character
Need some help , looking for Leves Lv9 Botanist.
But be wary it does eat up inventory space
not really
mk þanks for þe warning, i imagine inventory space is limited þen?
I think there arent lvl 9 BTN leves, they start at lvl 10?
I may be wrong
Oh
You can hire retainer and they have 175 slots of space I believe and you can have up too 2
armoury space hasnt really been an issue for me
you get two free retainers per character with a sub (not on trial)
Space becomes an issue once you get into crafting
Oh god it has been for me I’m always emptying my armoury😂
Try Muriaule Central Shroud (x23,y19)
ah okay, well i guess þat's it for questions for now
throw less greens/whites in there unless you really like the design
I reccomend waiting until a higher lvl to do leves like around 20 or 30 as your leves are limited based on allowances you have i just got done doing 50 of em :> cus i have 100
also check if items are dyable
@viscid fossil you also get 3 allowances every 12 hours so everyday you get 6 leves you can do or add on to your allowances
Ye i grind my culanarian from 20 to 53 took me 2 hours
Tbh it depends usualy id say yes but u may be ina situation where u have to see if cost is worth it
Does anybody know where i can find post-opener lvl 80 BLM rotations?
Do all "roles" have the same BiS? Like, theres no stat difference between all four tanks?
Not likely
For example, WAR doesnt gets Direct hit
Mostly...for tanks Warrior doesn't want DH
No. Currently only mentors and mods have the ability to add questions.
Whereas other tanks do need Direct hit because they cant naturally do it
There's a few omni role lists out there, or job friendlybones
Also SkS differences
Like Omni tank BiS basically just meld like warrior
I see. Huh. I assume there's similar issues with melee DPS etc., they dont align perfectly?
SkS differences
Sup. First time using fflogs, I killed Diamond Ex today but it is not showing up in my Logs? Even after clicking "Update"
did you upload it public?
Hi, I have a question. If you do the new Nier raid and you didn't get any of the armor, but let's say you got the 2B card or minion or etc. Does the loot rule apply that you'll have to wait another week?
Alright, thank you
Perhaps a #trivia-question suggestions channel may be in order. I'll make a suggestion for that in #discord-feedback
You use the one that won’t waste a lot of given percentage. Like if an item is 90% chance to gather you’d use the first or second version, not the 3rd version
there will be a loot obtained 2/3 down there
You can run again
Loot rule only applies to item level 520 gear
What exactly do you mean by that? Sorry but never used FFLOGS before 😁
Did you download FFlogs uploader?
A different question
click Upload a Log
Then make sure it's Public
I didn't roll for a piece and apparently everyone else passed on it. Then, I got a message that said, loot abandoned because no inventory space while I did have inventory space. Now in the description it says 2/3
Ah that's the (user) error apparently. Didn't download it kappa
but I never received said loot or rolled for it
Ahhh
The coin, and materia tokens
Well yep, now you know, download it, and hope you got a good log, if not, you can always go to https://xivanalysis.com/, paste the URL of your log and then see whatever went wrong
Thanks for the resource!
Finally trying out Savage and Ex content and want to make sure I am contributing to my static
Your sentiment is noted, and i appreciate having players that are actually trying to better themselves
What are the housing restrictions again?
Like.. 1 personal per service account? Idk I don't remember
1 personal per character
can still share estate and have an FC house
Oh okay
And are there restrictions to leveling up GC in order to buy housing, like a level requirement or something?
Have tried the balance discord?
AFAIK, rank 8
Just level 50 and second lieutenant
For a personal, anyways
Oh my bad i read GC as FC
And FC takes that + 4 members needed in FC to purchase house?
Nah, no need the 4 members
The FC itself needs to also be rank 6

ah right thanks !
Matters
It does? How so :o?
More ilvl higher lvl exploration it can do
Oh huh
Ilvl affects its item pool for quick exploration
As well as what ventures they can take
For gatherers is more about hitting the gathering stat breakpoint
Just give them the tome stone / script gear
I am in East Shroud near the Hawthorne Hut. But I do not see any Silkworm Cocoons.
But more ilvl typically results in that
Look around 22,26
Do you have triangulate active
Oh it's an unspoiled node too. Timed spawn.

So DoH and DoL are endgame. I mean if we fought all the wars and conflicts in the future. I guess why we have the Island Sanctuary coming :p
not necessarily endgame you can make bank
Sorry Channy
Do we know what time in Eorzea Time does the Silkworm Cocoon spawn?
1 AM
Is there a more efficient way of tanking the floor as a dragoon?
Geez. I missed it
Looks like to the Market Board I go
I probably will not have enough gil to buy it
Could also just wait a bit
how many rl hours is a ingame day
probably not 24 hours
168
168 minutes
2 hours and 45 min-ish?
yep
....
it does it for all of us
That's so annoying
70 minutes for a day. @rustic flare
No, that's not normal. Settings only reset if they were drastically changed by an update.
Like outright removed or replaced with new options
I started the game the patch before this emergency maintenance and my settings didn't get reset then
But this emergency patch they did
Every setting I had was replaced back to default

Best Sellers ranking
Good to know
Now I got to find those Crawlers that was said to be located in The Dravanian Hinterlands. And I am there in the hinterlands now and I cannot find them buggers
How many lords of vermilion stages are there
There's something in this game called vermilion?
Those are my fav wings in guild wars 2 lmfao
Though I was in the wrong server
24
Lord of Verminion is like a mini RTS game with your minions
10 minutes at most for a majority of them
RTS?
Does anyone know where in the hinterlands can I find the crawlers?
Vermilion is a color. Not a unique word to any game.
Damn this'll take a while
RTS is a game like starcraft
Real time strategy
Ohh
Question; this skill survey the entire map or just my surrounding? It looks like the icon stays on my minimap after rezoning.
@strange coral in the game I previously played guild wars 2 vermilion are a pair of wings
Let me guess, were they red?
Are all clockwork minions obedient by nature
That skill just highlights the highest level nodes in your zone for a few seconds
What are you supposed to do during the eyeball boss fight in WoD
Ah ok
Majority are, yes.
@viscid fossil if you're looking for something specific, the gathering log shows the location with a circle
I c
Try The Answering Quarter area
Go check out gamerscape
Too many mechanics
Basically don't over stack the glowing floor
Cleanse your doom if you get the debuff on the glowy platform
Break the clocks(I forgot the name) asap
@harsh torrent
Oh and kill adds
!faq allguide
Tanks keep boss facing away. DPS kills hour glass adds when they come up. Everyone faces away when it's casting Mortal Gaze. Dodge aoes. That's pretty much it.
Hour glass riight
Oh and alternate red and blue halves on the floor to stop stacking one or the other debuff.
If I buy a room in an FC house and I am forcibly removed from the FC, do I lose all the furniture that was in it?

I see, thank you
Damn man don't wanna use others dummies
Need to practice rotation but idk wheres the nearest dummi
Are you part of an FC that has housing?
Summerford farms

No
Ah nice
7 Crawler Cocoons right off the bat
how do i equip barding on my chocobo
Use the companion window from the character menu
If you have the barding in your inventory, "use" it first to add it to your collection
So I'm trying to make a new account, but each time I go to fetch my confirmation email, it tells me my email is already in use. The thing with that is though, is that it ISN'T. I go to the sign in page for the website, click "Forgot My Password", put in my email, and it tells me that there is no account linked to my email. I am at a complete loss as to where to go from here, please help ASAP.
yayy hes wearing black mage barding
Just finished 2.0 last night, are there any side quests/unlocks that I should go ahead and do now to improve my QoL for 2.x playthrough?
I just unlocked bahamut is there anything special about this?
Already posted this on the subreddit, but it's still awaiting moderator approval
Are you doing this through Mogstation or your SE store account
SE. I literally have never played the game, I bought it the other day.
If you have an SE store account, you also have an SE account which is used for Mogstation
At least, I think that's how it goes.
It's slightly confusing.
Yea the username is not unique to FF14, it'll be used on multiple SE services
Level 50 job quest if you haven't yet. Legacy of Allag
in Mor Dhona as it's required later anyway. A Recurring Problem
in the Waking Sands is also required later. You can do both now if you want or wait until the game tells you to go do them.
does anyone sell dyes in gridania
And I don't even have an account, like I said. I'm trying to make one. It says it sent the confirmation email, but the email I get tells me that my email is already in use, even though it ISN'T.
Contact SE support...?
Alaric in the market area
Mainly asking because I know flying is automatically unlocked for me now, but hypothetically maybe something like that is gated behind a side quest that I completely miss because I decided to continue with MSQ instead
The story won't let you accept the 2.56 quest without doing the Crystal Tower alliance raid quest anyways iirc
is there like, ingame thing, where i can check, which dung drop which items?
Flying in expansion zones is unlocked via aether currents, the game will explain this when you get to that point. For now you can't do anything about them.
For now the free flying for ARR zones will cover you.
Im still leveling but i wonder if i can check which dung drop which armor set
Not in game, unfortunately
ohh
Gamer escape has that info though
do u know from which level armor sets start dropping?
he doesnt sell soot black dye?
Soot black is one that needs to be crafted
ughhh
