[wintry chasm]

Yes

[manic flare]

it's actually why i still sub, even though i only play like an hour to 2 a day

[fading helm]

thats crazy lol

[wintry chasm]

So you can't just buy a house and never go in it for 2 years and sit on it

[manic flare]

i dont mind losing my plot, i just mind re-doing t he process of buying a house

i never wanna go through that again

would prefer doing 10 straight hours of tsukuyomi sync'ed tbh

[tidal yarrow]

could anyone link me the discord server for fates for chaos data center?

not sure where else i could ask

[remote lintel]

boss fates?

[tidal yarrow]

yeah like

[tidal yarrow]

thank you

[minor apex]

Does the starter edition come with stormblood and heavensward?

[twilit arch]

just heavensward

[remote lintel]

stormblood is with shadowbringers

[minor apex]

Damn

I only have 20 atm should I just buy the starter edition? Or wait for a sale and get the complete edition

[remote lintel]

imo just save up for complete since the starter has the same content as the trial

[minor apex]

Gotcha

Thanks!

[honest anvil]

why is there this random inconsistency in desynth sb ex trial weapons? like, desynth suzaku, seiryu, shinryu can give the expensive mats but not byakko or tsukoyomi?

[abstract pebble]

what's the "fastest" level 60 dungeon again?

[strange coral]

Antitower

[quiet pond]

Any idea if we'll get more crafting and gathering gear beyond more relic tool upgrades in 5.55? Want to start working on upgrading my gear but if more's gonna come not sure I wanna start working on it yet

[faint flare]

No

5.55 is for bojza stuff

Crafting and gathering stuff has been finished since 5.3 really with Aesthete

• one thing with skysteel stuff

[quiet pond]

Cool time to start the grind of gear again for crafters and gathering. I've literally been using the i430 set pentamelded since shadowbringers launched and haven't had a need to upgrade lol

until now

[raw sorrel]

What is the point of Eureka content?

[faint flare]

Stormblood relics primarily

[manic flare]

shining weapons for each class and shiny armor

[faint flare]

Also has mounts, minions and glamour stuff

[quiet pond]

Bladesion

[faint flare]

And stuff to sell for money

[manic flare]

as well as multiple mounts, minions

[faint flare]

Like emotes and the mounts

[manic flare]

what emotes can you get from eureka?

[faint flare]

Shiver

[manic flare]

that's the only one?

[faint flare]

The main one

[ripe hound]

Is the Savage Bozjan thing hard?

[faint flare]

Delerum savage, kinda yes

[obsidian patio]

There’s also the fistpump emote from eureka

[faint flare]

The mechanics themselves aren't to bad...just you REALLY can't fuck up

[ripe hound]

About EX difficulty? But needs preparation?

[faint flare]

Just about

[ripe hound]

Wait? One wipe and complete reset?

[faint flare]

Perma death

Like Baldesion

[ripe hound]

I see...

[faint flare]

Limited raises

[ripe hound]

Is Baldesion hard?

It’s casual enough to go in blind?

[faint flare]

And you can't be hit by mechanics more than twixe otherwisendoomed

[heavy wadi]

The thing that makes DR "savage" is that it's 48 players

and if you wipe, you have to restart from the beginning

[faint flare]

Baldesion these daysnis pretty face roll cause people have elemental gear

[ripe hound]

kk

[faint flare]

Well savage can be 24 now

[ripe hound]

Wait I mean the normal version of the 5.4 thing

I forget what it is called, 24 man DR?

[heavy wadi]

yeah but in a pinch, the new actions to make it easier don't come till 5.55

[faint flare]

Normal Delerum

[heavy wadi]

Delubrum Reginae Normal

[faint flare]

People have done it 24 already

Before the patch

Golems and slimes are ass

[ripe hound]

kk, Delerum Normal should be casual enough to do blind right?

[faint flare]

Buuut

Yes

[ripe hound]

Cool

[heavy wadi]

should be, yeah

[faint flare]

DR normal is basically a long 24 man

[leaden hedge]

How do I know which. area I'm in in the ocean fishhing boat to know which lure to use?

[heavy wadi]

most of the mechanics are easy to read

[faint flare]

That punishes yoy for being bad

[ripe hound]

The Bozjan stuff all matters in normal and savage DR right?

Lost action and stuff

[faint flare]

Yes

[ripe hound]

kk

[faint flare]

Please use them

For the love of god

[raw sorrel]

Is there an optimal class for each of the roles tank/healer/dps when it comes to squadron command missions? I heard some were particularly stronger than others

[ripe hound]

Do I need to buy them off MB?

[faint flare]

You can easily farm fragments in bojza

[obsidian patio]

Not really anymore.

[heavy wadi]

DR, on average, can run about 40-60 mins and using essences makes it go quicker for sure

[fallow zealot]

Hello, how do I meet someone who wants to play together? Is there a specific chat or do I just ask on the general discussion?

[ripe hound]

I only have 24mil left and I’m not into housing

[obsidian patio]

Archers used to be busted as hell due to a bug but since that got fixed they’re pretty on level

[ripe hound]

I guess I should go get some cheaper ones

[faint flare]

Buying gets them easier but you can just easily farm them

[ripe hound]

Is there a guide for how to farm those lost skills?

[leaden hedge]

How do I know which area I'm in in the ocean fishing boat to know which lure to use?

[raw sorrel]

Ah rip my archer dreams :>

[viscid fossil]

could someone fill me in about those diamond ex weapon 525 is worth getting or just get 530 ones? Am I missing something?

[faint flare]

Bloodsucker warrior and murder stuff for what you need

[ripe hound]

I just can’t remember what enemies drop them... all the Fates in Bozjan?

[faint flare]

Get diamond weapon...you cant augment Cryptlurker weapons without savage now

Fates are trash for anything except mettle

[viscid fossil]

I assume Savage is much harder than Extreme?

[faint flare]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/742031155309707305/769070166537273364/Screen_Shot_2020-10-23_at_12.30.01_PM.png

Yes savage is harder than extremes

[ripe hound]

Yeah, EX can be pretty easily cleared in PF, savage require much more work if you don’t have a static

[faint flare]

Especially extremes this expansion

They've been...real snooze fests

Especially the weapons

[ripe hound]

Is Diamond Ex really easy?

[faint flare]

Yes

[ripe hound]

Oh ex this expansion in general

kk

[faint flare]

It kinda just

Does nothing

[viscid fossil]

I done it yesterday, it's very forgiven

[ripe hound]

lol

I personally found Wolex quite hard

Probably because it’s the first EX I did in Shadowbringers

[faint flare]

There's only 1 mechanic and that's only cause people can't count

[vestal needle]

did peope hate hard version of dungeons? thats what SQEX doesnt make aynmore?

[ripe hound]

I think people just didn’t care, and Hard version of dungeons didn’t seem much easier to make than a brand new dungeon

[faint flare]

Hard mode dungeons are just in the same area as a previous dungeon

Just different

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I do think it can work if we revisit some old dungeons?

[viscid fossil]

Diamond weapons are pretty ugly imo lol isn't the next relic line 535?

[faint flare]

Yes

Use diamond for alt jobs and while waiting for relics

Just face roll the keyboard through the fight

[ripe hound]

Grinding one dozen of Diamond can be done in a week, so yeah

[trail mulch]

Does the new 2b hair work on viera

[viscid fossil]

I did facerolled, I end up falling off the platforms

[ripe hound]

lol

[faint flare]

Take 3 guesses (no)

[trail mulch]

Fml rip me

[vestal needle]

What about possible savage raid level dungeons?

[ripe hound]

I don’t think we ever really do high difficulty 4 man dungeon anymore

[faint flare]

You can't really do anything with 4 people

Can't tank swap

[ripe hound]

Only one is 4 man Monster Hunter I think

[viscid fossil]

I have never done any savage since ARR Turn 4-5... are they the same level of difficulty? I'm trying to recall back in the days.

[faint flare]

They've evolved

[daring bone]

Im currently lvl 48 and need to level up for the msq. Already done my hunting log and daily level roulette. After that whats the best way to grind xp quickly?

[faint flare]

Aurum vale

[warped nest]

Dungeons

Dungeons will always be the best source of exp, after roulettes

[ripe hound]

The only thing I remember from Turn 5 is the dive bomb thing where my raid used the strat of standing on the low pixel to dodge it, but we keep failing so we give up

[warped nest]

And ignoring queue time

[ripe hound]

If you need to queue as DPS, do Fates while queueing, or Netflix

Or crafting

[warped nest]

There are more alternatives at higher level, but nothing will beat dungeon (again, ignoring queue time)

Run dungeons with your FC friends

[fallen axle]

i have no FC cause im on trial lmao

just me being stubborn about the monthly fee

[ripe hound]

lol

No worry, 13 dollars a month isn’t free

[warped nest]

That's fine

[raw sorrel]

Yeah it’s understandable, a lot of my friends did the same as well

[warped nest]

Nothing wrong in being money conscious

I haven't sub for almost a year now

[fallen axle]

i mean

[ripe hound]

It’s like 10 pulls from a gacha game... but everything is pretty cheap is you calculate with gacha money

[fallen axle]

this pandemic has had me save a ton

[viscid fossil]

It's just one lunch meal from fast food restaurant sub for a 30days game time

[warped nest]

I will try to hitch hike the next free login campaign

[ripe hound]

Yeah, make sense

[fallen axle]

plus i dont normally have many bills and i work full time so yeah

im just being stingy lol

[warped nest]

If you don't play a whole, you can always sub a month here and there

[remote lintel]

if you can pick up the game during a sale you can hold on to the code until youre ready

[warped nest]

But obviously the disadvantage is, you cannot play whenever you feel like playing

[raw sorrel]

I honestly think it’s a better experience with free trial since you go through a lot of the content in the way it was intended to be

[warped nest]

What Cerberus said

[steep heron]

What are the conditions for losing Road to 70?

[warped nest]

Character older than 90 days and world is no longer Preferred

[faint flare]

90days after character creation if server loses preferred

[ripe hound]

When was MCH a hard job? In 4.x?

3.x and 4.x?

[faint flare]

That's when it was janky and kinda bad

[ripe hound]

I see

[warped nest]

Machinist wildfire is their burst

And it was affected by both weaponskill and abilities

[ripe hound]

There is nothing wrong with choosing to play an easy job right?

[faint flare]

No

[warped nest]

And it increased by percentage

Older MCH lives and dies by their wildfire

[ripe hound]

Like, it’s still possible to be more than a “filthy casual” if I choose to play an easy job right?

[warped nest]

On top of that, MCH had a RNG based combo

[faint flare]

Yes

Just press your buttons

[ripe hound]

And if you can play any job at a really really high level you can be good?

[warped nest]

Yup

[ripe hound]

Right... that 123 combo was random...

Now it’s Dancer’s kit now lol

[warped nest]

Dancer randomness can be predicted

[ripe hound]

I see

[raw sorrel]

Play SAM :^)

[slate arrow]

1 and 2 are guarenteed and it doesn't feel as bad as MCH

[warped nest]

Dancer proc cannot happen if you don't press that skill, and the randomness doesn't chain

[ripe hound]

But yeah, I just kind of realized, wow I really love MCH 5.x

[slate arrow]

where 1 can get a 2 and 2 can get a 3 and you can go 2 to 3 without needing to proc 1 and

[ripe hound]

kk

[slate arrow]

yeah no its dumb

[warped nest]

On top of not happening by itself (like Bard), dancer proc doesn't cancel combo

So it is much more manageable, despite having more random moving parts

[ripe hound]

Like I don’t even like the aesthetic of MCH that much, but I really really like the gameplay

Feels like a Chicago Typewriter, where you just click all the button together at once and win

(Ok not really together, but yeah)

[dense hound]

I wish my ping was more stable so I could do the Hypercharge burst window consistently

[raw sorrel]

With dancer, you just evaluate every move by the opportunity cost of losing the other.

[ripe hound]

I see

[warped nest]

In dancer's case, assuming 1 proc 3 and 2 proc 4, and 1 combo into 2

[ripe hound]

kk

[warped nest]

You can do combos like 1234, or even 12314

[ripe hound]

For some reason I’m having trouble putting DNC’s buttons onto my hotbar...

There are too few buttons so my hotbar kinda stopped functioning

[warped nest]

You only need to spend your 3 and 4 procs before you press 1 or 2, they don't need to pressed right away

[ripe hound]

kk

[fallen axle]

so is MCH difficult?

[leaden hedge]

New to the game, just started fishing and currently have a decent inventory of it, what other skill uses fish so that I could use the fish I have now and knock two birds with one stone? Or should I just sell them all?

[fallen axle]

or very specific comboing needed?

[warped nest]

MCH has no randomness

[ripe hound]

No, just press a lot of button and need good ping

[raw sorrel]

The only dps* class I’ve seen go horribly bad with button pressing so far is BLM

[ripe hound]

I would definitely consider MCH to be the easiest job as a MCH main

[fallen axle]

ayyyy PS5 and ethernet 😄

[ripe hound]

You press the most amount of buttons in game, but it feels extremely chill

I don’t think any job press more buttons than MCH

[warped nest]

Monk

[ripe hound]

So if you are like me and likes to press button MCH works

Right Monk

[warped nest]

Monk GCD is on a different tier

[ripe hound]

Monk still have quite a lot of OGCD right?

[warped nest]

Not too much

[ripe hound]

But yeah, Monk is definitely the contender

[fallen axle]

lol i want a job i only need to press 2 buttons 😛

[ripe hound]

Also how was new Monk?

[raw sorrel]

WHM

[ripe hound]

Try DNC or RDM

Right and WHM

[fallen axle]

lol i was gonna do WHM as my healer

[warped nest]

New monk is okay, but it is obvious that it is being made as the foundation of 6.0 Monk

[ripe hound]

I see

[fallen axle]

and RDM is one of my fav classes in FF series so deff make one of those

plus the utility of having a raise as a DPS is awesome

[unreal folio]

there's no survival manuals thats for lvl 70 and up gatherers right?

[warped nest]

WHM, DNC, and WAR has the lowest effective button count

There are, Brave

[ripe hound]

Also am I weird / bad for feeling like AST is a really hard job?
Like, I have all the healer job I need to do, while also need to manage cards as a ogcd “DPS” thing

[unreal folio]

ah coolio, was worried for a second xD

[warped nest]

I don't remember where to get them though

[sour ruin]

Most people would say that AST is the 'hardest' to pick up because its a lot to pay attention too compared to the other two healers

[remote lintel]

ast is just the busiest

[ripe hound]

Like while playing AST in 5.x, I just felt so stressed out, and everyone was like 5.x healer is soooo boring

[warped nest]

AST has more to juggle

[remote lintel]

just weave your cards between your dmg spam

[warped nest]

So it takes practice to keep track of all these stuff

[ripe hound]

Also I think it’s because AST haven’t lost DPS skills since 4.x, since AST only had 3 damage skill anyway

[unreal folio]

i found em. looks like its for 300 scrips at The Firmament

[dense hound]

I always forget to use cards

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I guess in a way AST is also chill, because you can always weave one ability between every cast

[warped nest]

@ripe hound personally, I strongly recommend making a separate hotbar, put your key cooldown there, and has it work like a car dashboard

You don't press the skill on this hotbar

[raw sorrel]

I should really up AST before Sage comes out

[fallen axle]

i have that above my crossbar on my controller

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I definitely should have. I also think having my hotbar too small hurts a bit

[fallen axle]

really helps with the longer cooldown buffs/attacks

[remote lintel]

also ast has plenty of instant casts to weave between

[warped nest]

AST cast time is 1.5s

[ripe hound]

As in, I have 6 hotbars on the bottom lol

[warped nest]

So they can weave in between spellcast

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I do like AST’s 1 spell 1 ogcd feel

[warped nest]

While other caster, for optimization sake, want to do normal cast + insta cast + ability

[ripe hound]

I’m probably just having most trouble on the select target part

As in, as AST, I have to constantly select targets

And I use mouse click to select....

I really should try to bind party member to hot keys

[remote lintel]

use F1-8

[raw sorrel]

Select targets?

[fallen axle]

is WHM/healer in general, easier with M+KB for selecting party members?

[warped nest]

What Cerberus said

[fallen axle]

i feel like i might struggle on controller

[faint flare]

Not really

Just get quick with up/down dpad

[minor apex]

Ok I’m confused with the job system I believe I’m only level 18? But I’m just confused with it. When should I be worried with other jobs? Are jobs specific to one class? When do I even unlock them?

[remote lintel]

ive never had any trouble targeting people

on controller

[ripe hound]

Yeah, just clicking party then boss every time I need a card

[warped nest]

On controller, it should take you no more than 4 dpad press to get to your party member, even in a 8 players party

[faint flare]

Whenever you want. The base classes unlock with "so you want to be a X"

[remote lintel]

@minor apex ARR classes upgrade into jobs

[ripe hound]

Wait... can I bind d pad on keyboard...?

[remote lintel]

you can pick up other jobs whenever you want

[ripe hound]

I should try to apply cards with d pad on keyboard lol

[remote lintel]

@ripe hound no

Ah ok

its for controller

[fallen axle]

is just highlighting on dpad enough

[faint flare]

Read this

[warped nest]

Soft targetting helps a lot in casting one skill on a different target quickly

[ripe hound]

I mean wait, I can bind d pad to keyboard!

[fallen axle]

or do i need to select with X before i cast

[warped nest]

If you don't select with X

[ripe hound]

I’ve been doing it to minor adjust UIs!

[remote lintel]

the highlight means youre targeting them

[warped nest]

That's soft targeting

[ripe hound]

Oh no

[warped nest]

Which means you will snap back to your original target

[ripe hound]

Yeah that won’t work for me then...

[warped nest]

Once you use 1 skill on your soft target

[ripe hound]

Wait, it still allow you to use 1 skill?

[fading aurora]

Does war still have the highest hp pool out of all tanks?

[minor apex]

What job should I get for thaumaturage?

[warped nest]

Soft targetting is good for many different cases

[fallen axle]

oh so hard target my tank

[faint flare]

That gets black mage

[fallen axle]

and soft target my others

[remote lintel]

@minor apex you only have 1 upgrade

the only class with 2 upgrades is arcanist

[minor apex]

Ahhhhhhhhh

I see

[remote lintel]

so you will be a black mage as thaumaturge

[ripe hound]

Is there anyway to soft target with keyboard?

[minor apex]

Ok thanks!

[warped nest]

Hard target boss to do Dps, soft target if you need to squeeze in 1 quick heal

[ripe hound]

Other than dpad

[warped nest]

That I do not know

[ripe hound]

Yeah... probably not

I bind my number keys on the right as a fake d pad, the key settings in FF14 somehow allows it, and I use it to move UI

I’m now thinking if I can bind some more buttons I can reach with my left hand as dpad up and down...

[leaden ginkgo]

how do i talk in instance chat

[faint flare]

/P

[leaden ginkgo]

I want to tell this guy he did well

[fading aurora]

Does warrior have the highest hp pool out of the rest of the tanks?

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh ok ty

[remote lintel]

/p is for party

[fallen axle]

that makes more sense

[remote lintel]

@fading aurora all tanks have about the same health

since its tied to gear

[warped nest]

Obviously hard target your tank if you need to heal them hard

[fading aurora]

@remote lintel I read somewhere that warrior has 25% hp increase from the class perks

[leaden ginkgo]

this tank as a sprout like me and they did so well I wanted to message him saying so. After the dungeon, but it’s telling me he doesn’t exist

[faint flare]

They probably left the party

[warped nest]

Different world

[remote lintel]

warrior can temporarily increase its health using a skill

[ripe hound]

Yeah you can’t message anymore after the dungeon ends

[leaden ginkgo]

I just wish I could let them know

[remote lintel]

emphasis on temporarily

[warped nest]

Oh, /p

You can /tell

[leaden ginkgo]

I think the party disbanded and as others said.. maybe on another world? :/

[warped nest]

Check your Contact ui

[ripe hound]

Can you /tell people on other worlds if they are not PFing?

[warped nest]

And their name should be on there

[ripe hound]

Oh wait you can /tell contacts?

[leaden ginkgo]

oh ok I’ll check

Rn

[remote lintel]

also you could have just commended them

[warped nest]

/\

[remote lintel]

although they wont know its from you but eh

[leaden ginkgo]

I did commend them will they see I did?

[remote lintel]

yes

it shows in their chat log that they got a commend

[leaden ginkgo]

ah ok that’s good, enough

Cool ty

[warped nest]

They will know they get commendation from party member

But they won't know who

Unless everyone commend the same player

[leaden ginkgo]

as long as they know they did well that’s cool

[gilded crypt]

is spamming ct raids faster to get loathsome? done a few ce and got no drops :(

[faint flare]

Castrum

It gives 5

[ripe hound]

Currently, rules for savage is you can enter any floor you want even if you haven’t clear any of them, but you can only get loot from 9-12s once a week right?

[faint flare]

And doing CEs makes it spawn faster

[faint flare]

No

If you skip a floor you forfeit loot

[gilded crypt]

whooa castrum gives 5 loathsome?

[faint flare]

For skipped floors

Yes

[gilded crypt]

nice tyyy

[ripe hound]

I see, so if for whatever god forsaken reason I want to do 12s as a party of 8, can we all enter 12s if none of us cleared 9-12s before?

[faint flare]

Someone would need to have someone with access to 12 que them into it

[ripe hound]

I see, thank you

[faint flare]

So they can then que everyone else into 12

[warped nest]

Just need to clean 9-12N

Oh, nvm

[wheat plume]

Why some quests say "Quest Sync"?

[ripe hound]

Also, if 1-4 person got their chest this week, you only get 1 chest for the floor right?

[faint flare]

Yes

[ripe hound]

And how many items do you get again? 4 items a floor?

I mean 4 coffer a floor?

[faint flare]

!faq savageloot

[zinc orbit]

What floors of savage drop which items?

Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion

Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.

Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.

The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests

[twilit arch]

thoses are quests that will sync to your level

[warped nest]

@wheat plume they scale up in level

[ripe hound]

Thank you

[twilit arch]

within a range however

[warped nest]

To a certain range

Stormblood sidequest for example, scale between 60-70

[ripe hound]

I always wonders what items are missing if you did a floor with only 1 chest

[faint flare]

Its 50/50

[ripe hound]

I see, random roll?

[wheat plume]

What's the use of that in quests with just talking and no battles?

[ripe hound]

kk

[faint flare]

Ome chest randomly spawns

[warped nest]

One and two chest just means more rolls

[twilit arch]

you still get exp from the quest itself

[ripe hound]

kk

[warped nest]

You won't see "this will only appear on chest 2"

[wheat plume]

But why Quest Sync in quests with no battles?

[warped nest]

You can do those to kill time while waiting for dungeon

[faint flare]

So the rewards scale

[warped nest]

It is just exp sources

[ripe hound]

Got it, thank you

[twilit arch]

because the reward of the quest depends on what lvl you are

[faint flare]

For your level

[wheat plume]

Nice, thxs

[warped nest]

Side quests don't always have battles

It can be a simple delivery

Or even just asking you to check in on a family member

[ripe hound]

If I really don’t want to do Dungeons or Deep Dungeons for leveling, it means I have Fates, Bozjan Fates, Beast Tribe quests, right?

[warped nest]

Yeah

[ripe hound]

kk

[wheat plume]

If I make party to dig a map, the treasure goes only to first player who opens the chest?

[warped nest]

No, it goes to the map owner

Only they can open

But, iirc, party member get some rewards too

[frank orchid]

yes they do ^^

[warped nest]

Then inside the treasure dungeons, only map owner can Need the loot

[wheat plume]

It didn't happen like that to me, it was my map and my friend opened it and the ítems went to him.

[warped nest]

Everyone else can greed

[unreal folio]

also another question: is there any up to date guides on Gatherer's lvl 70-80 rotations when farming for collectables?

[warped nest]

Same rotation

[twilit arch]

!faq dolcollect

[zinc orbit]

Collectable Gathering Guide

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sdQEAMk1YmCpDuPTemlQfsaxsGfcyyYz8Cx7lETTbmc/edit

[warped nest]

Just more stats

Kael, did I missed any crucial info on the treasure map?

[ripe hound]

Wait only the person who used the map can need?

[unreal folio]

got it thank you

[warped nest]

Inside the treasure dungeon, yeah

[faint flare]

No

[ripe hound]

Oh yeah, I missed that line lol

[faint flare]

Everyone can need

[warped nest]

??

[faint flare]

People just set their own loot rules

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I think so

[leaden ginkgo]

why did I come here

[faint flare]

Verbally

[warped nest]

Ahhhhh

[ripe hound]

Everyone can need

[warped nest]

Ahhhh

[ripe hound]

lol

[faint flare]

Map.owner need or FFA

Either or

[warped nest]

Wow, I have gotten brain washed

[leaden ginkgo]

oh right hello so I wanted to ask if there's a list of kupo's commands somewhere

[warped nest]

After so many years of treasure hunting

[ripe hound]

I remember being super afraid of Misclicking when I farm Maps with FC

[wheat plume]

So how can I make to keep the ítems if it's my map?

[faint flare]

Its a honor system

[ripe hound]

I definitely have enough time to level PLD to 80 for endwalker right?

[warped nest]

@ripe hound yes

[faint flare]

You have like 6 months

[ripe hound]

Nicelol

[warped nest]

For reference, once you got into lvl 40+, give or take

7 dungeons is about 2 levels+ of exp

[ripe hound]

Yeah...

Also I do have PLD at 70

[warped nest]

You can kill enemy on the map

[ripe hound]

I’m just fundamentally burned out on dungeons...

[warped nest]

And still be level 80

[wheat plume]

was that answer to my question? XD

[faint flare]

Yes

[warped nest]

Yes, Khell

[wheat plume]

What's honor system?

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I guess even just doing fates, getting to 80 in 6 month is easy lol

[warped nest]

People acting like gentlemen

[faint flare]

You trust others will follow the rules set

[ripe hound]

Basically just be nice

[pastel dew]

is there a way to login a ps4 trial acc into pc or nah?

[faint flare]

No

[warped nest]

Gentlemen's agreement

[wheat plume]

ah, ok, we all were ignorants about that lol, thxs

[faint flare]

Trial is for that device

[pastel dew]

I see, thanks

[wispy flare]

whatre these 3 things that Im missing?

[warped nest]

@ripe hound take a break for now

[ripe hound]

Can you move a trail PS4 account to Pc while only buying the game for once

[ripe hound]

I just came back lol

[warped nest]

You can get from 70 to 80 in a week

Oh, lol

[faint flare]

Alexander, ilavice and warring triad

[wispy flare]

huh

[ripe hound]

_(:з」∠)_

[wispy flare]

I swear i finished them save for triad

[warped nest]

Did you do the follow up quests?

[ripe hound]

I should never have done the experience of 3 dungeon runs an hour for 4 hours straight

[warped nest]

And properly wrap up those stories?

[ripe hound]

It’s the same dungeon over and over again...

[warped nest]

Just to be sure

You aren't doing lvl 50/60/70 dungeons right?

Those are no good for exp

[wheat plume]

In PS4 (not pro), is it running at 30 or 60 fps?

[ripe hound]

And “Such devastation it’s not my intention uwu”

[frozen wind]

That uwu

[ripe hound]

Nah, just daily roulette and repeated dungeon runs with fast Tank/Healer queue

[frozen wind]

i felt a great stab of pain

[warped nest]

@wispy flare check and make sure that you actually talk to the NPC to follow up and properly wrap up those quest line

[ripe hound]

I’m fairly certain that dudes really into uwu that you can also fight him in UWU

[faint flare]

Not gaius

[frozen wind]

This but I uwu ironically

[ripe hound]

lol

[frozen wind]

Well actually who am I kidding I unironically uwu to my lord and handsome savior bahamut uwwu

[ripe hound]

lol

[faint flare]

Not here

[frozen wind]

IM A SUMMONER MAIN THIS

I'm legally allowed as stated in my grimiore to simply over bahamut

[faint flare]

And not here

[frozen wind]

Man no wonder summoning died out until we canonly brought it back in eorzea 😔

[ripe hound]

Finding a casual static now shouldn’t be too hard right?

I feel like there should be people like me who got attracted back to fixing again by 5.5

[faint flare]

Maybe

[ripe hound]

Make sense

[forest bronze]

after unlocking freeze can i just drop Blizzard 2 from my hotbar aside from level sync content?

[twilit arch]

ye, freeze replaces b2

[forest bronze]

nice they should just make it a trait that upgrades it like thunder 3 •__•

[finite topaz]

Nah, they both work fundamentally different, im afraid

But Freeze is just better

[fallen axle]

i think ima give snowcloak a run to finish it out and then go to bed

its been a long day lol

[wispy falcon]

Is it possible to grind the Diamond Totems, or can you only get like one a week or something?

[leaden ginkgo]

new player here, whats the best server to play on?

[twilit arch]

extreme fights are never weekly locked. can farm to your hearts content

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

Which world should I pick?

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)

[leaden ginkgo]

doesnt tell me the server wiith the most active players, im in cali

[twilit arch]

servers are for the most part fairly populated

and all of NA is in cali

[crystal bluff]

is there a command for the 60 blm rotation?

[twilit arch]

FFXIV isn't really like wow where if you find yourself on a low pop server you're fucked, world visit means marketboards aren't really an issue and duty finder is cross server

the !faq blmleveling has rotations for all levels

[crystal bluff]

thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

ahhh ok ok rthanks

[ripe hound]

What can you do with the companion app?

[leaden ginkgo]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/companion/ towards the bottom there's a list of features

[ripe hound]

Thanks!

[leaden ginkgo]

I mostly use it to see if anything sold on the mb

[ripe hound]

Chat is "not to be confused with in-game chat" right?

If I am new to RDM and just want to learn a beginning Opener, what do I learn?
3-8 Opener: https://i.imgur.com/tSqX4V0.png

Learn 3-8 and learn others later?

[leaden ginkgo]

Most of the openers are adjusted for embolden. With party makeup it has to be used early or later depending

[ripe hound]

For generic PF random stuff, just do 3-8 is fine right?

[leaden ginkgo]

Yes, you're not min-maxing with a static in savage

instead of Just Wing It!

[thick saffron]

When does the loot once a week end?

[leaden ginkgo]

Tuesday typically. You can see the timer in your challenge log at the bottom of the window

[thick saffron]

No no, I mean like, you can get as much as you want, like puppet's bunker and such

[obsidian patio]

Savage will keep its weekly lock until like 5.56 or 5.58

[thick saffron]

Thank you

[obsidian patio]

Tower might be a bit earlier like 5.55

[thick saffron]

Thank gosh. I was hoping to farm it for the 520 gear

[ripe hound]

How long between 5.56 / 5.58 and 6.0?

About 3 month?

[modest igloo]

prolly about 6 months

between 5.55 and 6.0

[obsidian patio]

Definitely not 6 months

5.55 is already slated for mid-late May.

[modest igloo]

late may to early november?

[obsidian patio]

EW already has a release estimate of fall this year, which usually translates to September/October

Mid-late June/Early July is my personal estimate/guess for 5.56/5.58

To use patch 4.5 as an example, 4.55 came out early-mid February, 4.56 was late March, and 4.58 was early May.

[modest igloo]

well yeah, but covid.

[leaden ginkgo]

You can kind of time it depending on the quarter. Most big game releases wait for q3

[fading aurora]

Where can I pick marauder class up at?

[twilit arch]

in limsa, upper decks

[fading aurora]

Thanx

[onyx anchor]

Did I get this set when I got Soul of the Samurai or what...? I kinda just had an unnamed armour thingy and opened it and got this, and I dunno where it came from.

[obsidian patio]

Yes

It’s your starter set for samurai

[onyx anchor]

And I only just noticed I had it
Damn. I'm dumb.

[wintry chasm]

Yes you should really pay attention to your quest rewards...

[onyx anchor]

Thanks!

[toxic falcon]

random question

when putting stuff in your private champer how do you rotate it?

because when i do it just puts it back the way it was

[leaden ginkgo]

You have to click it again to set it after you've rotated it

[toxic falcon]

oh

Ok. thx

[leaden ginkgo]

Like on the object itself

[shadow turtle]

I'm not sure if this is the right channel to ask in, so I'm very sorry if it's not, but would starting a New Game+ for ARR affect my progress in Heavensward? And if I didn't want to do the NG+ anymore, could I just revert my game back to my status in Heavensward or would I have to finish the NG+?

[wintry chasm]

You can go in and out of NG+ at any time

You're not stuck into it and it doesn't affect your progress of where you are now

[leaden ginkgo]

I won't interfere since it's wholly separate. The NG+ basically pauses it when you suspend it

[shadow turtle]

Ah okay
ty very much

[wintry chasm]

^ kinda yeah, I'm not sure how to fully describe it

[wispy falcon]

I've cleared the Cloud Deck on normal, finished all quests related to it, and talked to the Warmachina Fanatic. The console said that I've unlocked a new high-end duty, which in theory should be Cloud Deck EX, but I can't find it anywhere. I'm ilvl514. Does anyone have any idea why I can't find Cloud Deck EX in my duty finder?

[left cliff]

High end duty

[wispy falcon]

Ah, got it, thanks

[shut panther]

you probably shouldn't be trying to do it in duty finder, though

high end duties are best done with PF

[gloomy mortar]

What Chocobo feed should I use for a max level 20 Chocobo?

[viscid fossil]

What is the missing one I don't have? This is strange. I have all raid unlocked.

[leaden ginkgo]

The stormblood raid it looks like

[still river]

does anyone know the name of ||red girl||'s orchestrion roll?

[leaden ginkgo]

It's like that on mine as well. Could be a placeholder icon

[viscid fossil]

could it be the Nier raids

[wintry chasm]

Nah it's the SB 24-man

You gotta do ALL the quests in the airship to unlock it for NG+

[viscid fossil]

airship...?

I dont remember

[wintry chasm]

Yeah the uh, Prima Vista in Kugane

[elfin fjord]

anyone know if i can sell a ring i just made with attached materia? or does the materia make it where i cannot sell it on the market?

[raven sage]

As long as it doesn't say binding at the top, you can sell it if it's market sellable

The materia doesn't make things bind

[elfin fjord]

thank you

[viscid fossil]

strange, i dont see any quest in purple

[wintry chasm]

Any ?

[viscid fossil]

yeah two quest non-purple

[leaden ginkgo]

I went and checked as well. They were the only two for me as well. Odd that they'd need to be completed if that's the case

[hexed cargo]

Hi raid question. Gonna go on a Gwibber Hunt. Should I try to get gear from Savage raid for BiS or is Augmented crafted stuff be good enough for EX?

[modest igloo]

nope, ex is eaiser than savage

normally you farm EX for savage raids

[obsidian patio]

You need to do those for unlocking it in NG+

[raven haven]

oh server down?

[hexed cargo]

Woooo, I can still not do Savage

[mental oracle]

Why people say blue mage is for masochists?

[nocturne void]

I'm still a little confused on rested exp. Should I always be logging out ina major town, inget passive exp for being in major town?

[boreal storm]

Just has to be in a sanctuary

[open coral]

You only accumulate rested xp while in sanctuary zones (anywhere with an aetheryte), so if you want to accumulate rested xp while offline, you should be logging off in a sanctuary.

If you don't care about accumulating rested xp, then you can log out wherever.

And to be clear, "rested xp" doesn't mean you're passively gaining xp while logged out or in a sanctuary, but rather that you're gaining a bonus to xp gains until the rested bonus is used up (the green xp bar).

[warped nest]

!faq restedexp

[zinc orbit]

Rested Experience FAQ

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

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

'How much of a boost is it?'

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

[warped nest]

It is a percentage boost btw, so low level job that level up quickly will burn through it like it is nothing

[open coral]

It's worth more relative levels for a lower level job than a higher level one though.

[warped nest]

Not really

It is still 1.5 level of bonus exp to claim regardless of level

You just claim it slower on high level jobs

[nocturne void]

Awesome thx for clarification yall

[warped nest]

At the very least, never spend it on classes below level 10

[open coral]

On a full bar of rested xp, I've gone from about 1-24(ish) for a new job, but only 3-4 levels for a higher level one.

That's why "relative" levels.

[silent phoenix]

hopefully someone can help me here. Game is bugging me right now. I don't find my command to gather collectables as miner -.-

[warped nest]

Without said bonus, it is relatively less effort to level up a lower level job

[silent phoenix]

looking at it for one and a half hour now

[warped nest]

Have you unlocked it?

[open coral]

Also true.

[warped nest]

In Mor Dhona?

[silent phoenix]

I collected some before i stopped playing half a year ago

is there a new quest now ? i will check

[sour ruin]

Collectables are different now, only some nodes have them

[warped nest]

/\

[silent phoenix]

yeah was right in front of one like 5min ago

[sour ruin]

You click on the collectable you want to gather and it brings up the screen for the new minigame

The old abilities are defunct/not used anymore

[silent phoenix]

kinda confused...maybe was not the right node than

[sour ruin]

Each item has a collectable version and a non-collectable version now, different ones come from different nodes, you can check the gathering guide for collectables specifically if you swap to the tab with the star on the left

[finite topaz]

Appraising system got changed

Like 2 patches ago i think?

[twilit arch]

all items that are collectables are automatically gathered as such (barring fisher which still has collector's glove)

[silent phoenix]

yeah I found that out to now^^ ah I see that was the change I missed. Found a comment on a forum which said only the special nodes that appear from time to time has collectables

[cedar bobcat]

When leveling retainers (Botanist specifically), do I need to fully gear them up just spamming quick ventures to get xp? If so, how often?

[warped nest]

Quick venture exp is RNG

Based on what they bring back

Personally, I'd just let them gather the highest level item they can grab

Both are 1 hour, but the direct gather has more consistency

[cedar bobcat]

Right, but is it weighted by ilvl or anything? I haven't had to go 1-80 on a retainer in forever, so I gotta go get them new gear if they need it

[stiff skiff]

What is the best world in your guy's opinion.

[cedar bobcat]

I don't just have any lying around

[warped nest]

Just buy gear from NPC is fine

Ilvl will affect the pool for quick venture, but it shouldn't affect the exp gain from normal venture

[warped nest]

Earth

[gloomy mortar]

Eventually your retainers will not be able to do 18-hr ventures unless they have a high enough gathering stat, which is when you need to upgrade their gear. Before that, any gear is fine. @cedar bobcat

[warped nest]

Mars look cozy and quiet, but I can't get good signal there

[stiff skiff]

Nah like crystal aether, like that

[gentle quarry]

What level for DoH/DoL should I start heading to Ishgard for levelling?

[warped nest]

Genuinely doesn't really matter

You just need to pick data center to match your schedule

So you don't end up playing on low traffic hours and have to wait long for queue

Match making are done between World of the same Data Center

[stiff skiff]

So if I wanted to visit the other worlds can I?

[warped nest]

So there is no noticeable difference between them for the most part

In the same data center, yes

[stiff skiff]

Or is it permanent

Ahh okay

[warped nest]

Cross data center is coming in 6.X

[warped nest]

Not permanent

You are basically a tourist

[cursive abyss]

Dont they offer free data center transfers once in a blue moon?

I think they did a couple times

[mental oracle]

I hope queue will be faster with cross data center

[warped nest]

Only if you move from congested to preferred

Iirc

[twilit arch]

they only offered free world transfers with the data center moves/split

[warped nest]

Ahh

[twilit arch]

and ofc there's congested to preferred but the fact that we have no congested worlds atm means its moot point

[silent phoenix]

Waiting for 1 Hour right now...nobody on light plays this early 😄

[warped nest]

I meant cross data center world Visit

I don't think they have mentioned cross data center match making

[silent phoenix]

-.-

[cursive abyss]

So, after 6.x, making alt characters will be even less useful?

[remote lintel]

possibly

[warped nest]

Not any significantly less

If you make alt to gear different jobs to BiS

It is still business as usual

[mental oracle]

I heard if you have 1 character you pay less for the sub.. Is it true?

[warped nest]

Not exactly

!faq subprice

[zinc orbit]

Subscription Prices

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/iPm8PE2.png

[warped nest]

Entry is the lowest you can get

You can have up to 8 characters, but they can't be born on the same world

[silent phoenix]

30 Tage – 10,99 €

thats what europeans pay for 1 char

[cursive abyss]

Your price does NOT increase with the amount of characters you make, your character per server and world cap increases instead if you go with Standard instead of entry

you can have 2 characters on two different DCs and still pay the same price

[mental oracle]

Oh ok

[warped nest]

Well put

This game allows one character to play all jobs (absolutely no race or gender locked classes) without any stat disadvantage (as stat comes from equipment)

So people rarely play more than one

[cursive abyss]

Reasons you want to make an Alt:
1.You want to make a let's play series of FF14 on your YT Channel
2.You want to make a lore video series on your YT Channel
3.You're pre 6.x and want to experience the other datacenters.
4.You want to play the MSQ again from the start and see how efficient you can be the 2nd time around.
5. Housing opportunities are hard to come by on your main DC.
6. (Slightly shitposty reason) You put your main on Crystal
7. You want to replay the few quests that are NOT covered by New Game+

[warped lintel]

hi my friend is trying to make a character in the same server as I am (malboro) but the game is saying she can't make new character in the world. Does Malboro not allow any new characters?

[remote lintel]

!faq serverlock

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

[warped lintel]

thank you!!!!

[cursive abyss]

Sometimes worlds get filled to capacity, which means no more new characters can be made there. It may be some time before a new slot opens in that world

[earnest wraith]

There are people to do alts for

1. maximize retainers since we can have 9 retainers per character once you pay for it
2. some people bought entire ward for themselves using alts.

[remote lintel]

3. wanting to play a hot guy or girl

definitely not me

[finite topaz]

You have to actively set it to Entry sub btw

[silent phoenix]

here you can look up the actual status of the servers and if character creation is allowed

[cursive abyss]

Why is this fate outside the map?

[twilit arch]

its in its own special instance thats technically on that map

its for the hatching tide event

[slate arrow]

botany guild has a teleport NPC

[cursive abyss]

The game doesnt seem to recognize that I've played well over 300+ hours of this game, so it marked me as a sprout on my alt sadly

[slate arrow]

everything is character based

it doesn't care if your account playtime is 300+ hours

[cursive abyss]

Luckily, there doesnt seem to be any "lol sprout" memes or anything like that

[remote lintel]

you could turn it off

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a way to link the glam instead of the glammed item?

[remote lintel]

you need the glam item

[cursive abyss]

wow its a shame that Repose does not stay on the enemy when you cast magic

[remote lintel]

repose is pretty useless

[slate arrow]

sleep always gets knocked off when an enemy receives damage

[cursive abyss]

in previous final fantasy games, sleep would stay afflicted on enemies, as long as you didnt physically hit them, magic was OK

[slate arrow]

besides specific quest instances, you can safely unbind it

well this isn't previous FF games so /shrug

[cursive abyss]

[round juniper]

is there a way to check when your character was created?

[gritty falcon]

Are crafting or gathering ever relevant from a story perspective or are they basically completely separate mechanics?

[honest anvil]

is there a way to check when your character was created?
@round juniper perhaps with /playtime

[round juniper]

playtime only shows hours played

[remote lintel]

look up your first achievement

[honest anvil]

Are crafting or gathering ever relevant from a story perspective or are they basically completely separate mechanics?
@gritty falcon doh and dol have no impact on msq but they have their own job quest stories

[cursive abyss]

Where was the option for "Do not show headgear on character" again?

[round juniper]

ingame?

[remote lintel]

on your lodestone page

[round juniper]

where does it show achievements?

only class/minions/mounts

[remote lintel]

are you logged in

[gritty falcon]

are there any good questlines or other things locked behind DoH/DoL progression?

[cursive abyss]

Where was the option for "Do not show headgear on character if headgear is equipped"?

[remote lintel]

the button under your character in the character window

[cursive abyss]

Has there ever been other 50million Gil purchasable mounts in the game available for anyone with the Gil to buy?

[remote lintel]

no

[gloomy mortar]

Any reason given why they started now?

[slate arrow]

people complained

[shut panther]

probably because gil inflation really got out of control in shb

[finite topaz]

people said that their wallets were getting too big

[gloomy mortar]

Why did it inflate in ShB and not others?

[finite topaz]

we can attribute the gil flow to the coffee biscuit levemetes btw, people were racking like 3 millions with 100 allowances

[shut panther]

yeah

coffee biscuits

basically.

and the other similar leves

and it's very easy to level crafting now, so there's a lot more people able to take advantage of that

and that alone is flowing millions of gil into the economy

spammer

[finite topaz]

that was some crazy shit

[winged cobalt]

no kidding

[shut panther]

gross

[gloomy mortar]

gross

[fading aurora]

Can arcanist que as healer or only when it's lvl 30 and I get scholar

[finite topaz]

only lvl 30, before becoming a SCH, you're a DPS(I mean SCH also does DPS, but you get the drill)

[fading aurora]

Damn I thought I could skip que times

Playing dps is like waiting in a hospital for 3 hours

💀

[finite topaz]

yeh, when i was lvling Lancer, my first job, i would just do some sidequests meanwhile

or level my gatherers/crafters

[ancient whale]

!!wAIT

guys

[fading aurora]

That's what I try to do but it feels so weird getting insta que as healer and 30-50 min ques as dps

[ancient whale]

i can do a dungeon with my companions/Main Char NPC?!

[finite topaz]

Only on ShB dungeons

i wonder if...

!faq trust

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named trust exists, Kupo!

[fading aurora]

I'm also playing click the report button since chat is being spammed with gil sellers

[finite topaz]

huh

[finite topaz]

I appreciate yer effort

[ancient whale]

so essentially i can do the whole dungeon solo?

[quiet crystal]

Is there an indicator to know if the group is passing dps check in e11s

[finite topaz]

the NPCs are worse than regular players

[finite topaz]

ACT

Or enrage

[quiet crystal]

Like how much boss% do I need by say, prismatic

[finite topaz]

Hmmh... well, below 25% is safe

[glass oyster]

ACT but don't use it to torment players etc

[finite topaz]

actually

[fading aurora]

Is it level 45 that white mage gets it's 2nf attack skill?

[finite topaz]

below 20% i believe

[fading aurora]

Spamming stone over and over isn't ideal

[shut panther]

that's.. pretty much what whm does

[finite topaz]

This one? you spam it

[ancient whale]

can i do it unsync w them?

[finite topaz]

you spam Holy after

[finite topaz]

no

[glass oyster]

!action glare

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 300.

[shut panther]

dot thing, spam stone (glare later)

[finite topaz]

Spam Holy in dungeons adds

[shut panther]

and holy in AoE situations

[finite topaz]

cuz Stun is fucking OP

in dungeons, you DoT whatever u can while tank is pulling, but after you stop, you just spam da Holy boi

[shut panther]

but yeah, you're running into what is a common complaint these days, namely that healers don't have enough tools for DPS

[finite topaz]

IMO, keeping Dia is way easier, a 30s DoT is more forgiving than an 18s DoT

[fading aurora]

I always use my dot but having just 1 skill for 40 levels to attack with is so lame lmfao

Even though I find healer fun

[ancient whale]

i can't do the dungeon for ShB unsync?

[shut panther]

you can

[finite topaz]

you get another skill to attack called Assize

[finite topaz]

you cant

[shut panther]

it's not going to do nearly as much, though

[finite topaz]

current content cant be unsynced

[ancient whale]

ahh ok ty

[fading aurora]

I didn't read that as ass size

Did i

[oak ice]

Current expansion is not unsyncable

[glass oyster]

Everyone does lmao

[finite topaz]

!action assize

[shut panther]

oh, so you can't

[zinc orbit]

[shut panther]

I'm dumb

[finite topaz]

Behold, 400 potency attack

[shut panther]

I just assume monsters take damage from my sizeable ass as I twirl

[finite topaz]

(the heal is a collateral, use it whenever its ready and you stand to hit the most amount of mobs with it)

[glass oyster]

Also it's oGCD

[finite topaz]

Literally says "Additional effect", so its a collateral, case closed

[fading aurora]

I'm 3 levels away from 45 so I guess I'll do some dungeons

To get holy

[finite topaz]

nah keep doing the MSQ bro

[quiet crystal]

Only cons of holy is that it drains your mp so quick

And that’s the only con

[shut panther]

white mage dungeon 101: dot everything as the tank pulls, when he posts up use your last weave window to assize > swiftcast > holy > presence of mind > holy until everything is dead

[finite topaz]

lmao just Lucid Dreaming before Holy spamming

[fading aurora]

One more thing about mp, when my tanks are bad and don't use cooldowns and have me healing them non stop because they always go to 30% how do I not run out of mana

[shut panther]

yeah, throw in ld before pom if you need to

[glass oyster]

Reduced Enmity

[shut panther]

lucid dreaming

[finite topaz]

Slap a Regen on them, do not use Cure 1

use Cure 2 ONLY when it's needed

[oak ice]

Not anymore

[glass oyster]

Oh

[shut panther]

use lucid dreaming on the first weave window that comes up after you hit 7000MP

[glass oyster]

Lmao rip

[finite topaz]

this thing restores a ton of MP

[fading aurora]

Do people not use cure 1 at all?

[finite topaz]

Nope

after you get Cure 2, you do not use Cure 1

[shut panther]

it's... incredibly situational.

[glass oyster]

What about cure 3

[quiet crystal]

Only place to use cure 1 is place like sastasha

[finite topaz]

Read it

[shut panther]

it's not technically useless, but you really shouldn't be using it under anything but the weirdest circumstances.

[finite topaz]

!action cure iii

[onyx anchor]

Why can't I get Iaijutsu? I drag it to my hotbar and get Tenka Goken.

[zinc orbit]

cure iii is an aoe heal

Cure 3 heals less than 2

Iaijutsu has all 3 of them

[finite topaz]

Cuz you have a certain amount of Sen dont ya?

[glass oyster]

!action cure ii

Restores target's HP.

[quiet crystal]

The button will change when it’s ready

[lapis lagoon]

I too was confused why cure 3 was worse until I read the desc

[finite topaz]

Cure 3 heals less, but it's AoE heal (smaller)

[fading aurora]

I know what it does but do people use it or do they just use medica?

[finite topaz]

very small

[lapis lagoon]

I wish they hadn't called it cure 3

[glass oyster]

Medica 2 actually

I rarely use Cure 3

[shut panther]

for single target healing, Bene>tetra weave > shield weave > lily heal > cure II

[finite topaz]

And i mean like... almost never

it's only on downtime when people are stacked together, because the range is way too small

[vernal urchin]

Cure 3 is your "oh shit everyone is going to die" button

[shut panther]

for aoe it's a bit more situational

medica II is your standard aoe heal

[finite topaz]

nono

[shut panther]

cure 3 is the "oh fuck" aoe button

[quiet crystal]

Also cure 3 has smol aoe range

[finite topaz]

[finite topaz]

this is your standard AoE heal

Medica 2 is your "I fucked up" AoE heal

[shut panther]

if you need a weave sure

[fading aurora]

Yes but if they are spread apart does that even matter anymore

[quiet crystal]

Medica 2 is expensive though

1300 MP

[shut panther]

well

[finite topaz]

Medica 2 is a bigger DPS loss than Lilies, and nobody really needs that much healing

[shut panther]

admittedly I have too much piety

so

[finite topaz]

Also @fading aurora as to why the healer's DPS rotations are so basic, it's because you are a healer, you need to be able to heal on a moment's notice

[fading aurora]

I've seen 10 accounts in 1m30seconds selling gil is there a massive hack wave wtf?

That's all chat is right bow

Now*

[finite topaz]

new patch

[shut panther]

no, welcome to ffxiv

[finite topaz]

new patch basically brings a lot of gil sellers

[shut panther]

the enforcement of anti-rmt on non JP servers is awful

[lapis lagoon]

Do whm usually help dps or laser focus on heals in raids? I'm just keeping aero up

[quiet crystal]

In KR they don’t even enforce it iirc

[finite topaz]

If healerse had a combo rotation, they'd have to interrupt it midway to heal, which wouldn't be pretty

[shut panther]

keep dot up, heal when necessary, glare

[glass oyster]

Wdym?

[finite topaz]

Hmmhh...let me link a pic of how my fights go

[shut panther]

square for the most part only cares about it when it's on JP servers or is publicly embarassing

[lapis lagoon]

I'm trial player don't think I get glare

[shut panther]

other than that enforcement is 100% token "we banned 3000 accounts last week lol there's 20000 but sure"

[finite topaz]

I have 239 casts

Of those 239 casts, 146 are Glares

[quiet crystal]

At 60 it’s stone and assize go brr

[finite topaz]

that's more than 50%

[quiet crystal]

And throw medica 2 at all problems

[shut panther]

yeah, glare is just stone V

[fading aurora]

!action glare

[shut panther]

or is it IV?

[fading aurora]

I have a long way to 72

[finite topaz]

Well basically uhh... you cast a lot of DPS

you do NOT heal for comfort

[glass oyster]

I mean, AST has Malific IV and SCH has Broil

[finite topaz]

you heal so they're not dead, that's it

[fading aurora]

Do healers let tanks drop bellow like 30% before they heal?

[shut panther]

30%? lol

call me when you're at 5% bby

[finite topaz]

I do a lot, yeah

[glass oyster]

5%

[shut panther]

benediction will fix you right up qt 😗

[finite topaz]

But it's also cuz i got instaheal tools

on your low level, you do not have instaheal tools

[fading aurora]

But doesn't benediction have like a 125 seconds cooldown

[quiet crystal]

Technically it’s up to your comfort level
