#

So eh not that big of a journey

wintry chasm
#

Oh fuck me

#

That's soooo bad

wind dragon
#

lol I know!!

open coral
#

That's a level 49 weapon

wintry chasm
#

No wonder you can't do that

open coral
#

That's terrible.

wind dragon
#

it's the best one I could find

wintry chasm
#

Please for the love of god replace that shit

wind dragon
#

hahaha

open coral
#

Seriously, just get the Ironworks one.

wind dragon
#

ok

cold frost
#

Tried to buy one on the market board?

open coral
#

No no no

wintry chasm
open coral
#

Don't bother with the MB

cold frost
#

Sometimes you can get cheap weapons for like 10k

twilit arch
#

did you do the msq on a different job?

wind dragon
#

no but these are all great suggestions I should definitely try

open coral
#

MB weapons aren't going to compare to the Ironworks gear at that level

#

Just use poetics.

wind dragon
#

ok I'm gonna head to ironworks first... you get those poetic thigns from dungeons right? I might not have enough

open coral
#

From MSQ roulette, 50/60/70 dungeons, and Alliance raids.

vital ruin
#

How do I get more megicite to upgrade the element board

wind dragon
#

ah ok cool

open coral
#

You get 500-600 poetics from MSQ roulette your first time per day, so I'd do that if you're short.

#

500 if there's no first time bonus, 600 if there is.

wintry chasm
#

I'm curious and I kinda ask what Kael asked again, have you done the MSQ as another job? @wind dragon

wind dragon
#

The question I'm on isn't MSQ, it's a WHM quest

wintry chasm
#

No no there is a reason we are asking

jolly sorrel
#

MSQ roulette only gives me 300, what do I need to do to up it?

strange coral
open coral
#

Yes, but if you'd been doing the MSQ as WHM, we're wondering why you weren't struggling before this.

wind dragon
#

oh

manic flare
open coral
wintry chasm
#

that and the fact that MSQ would have given you white mage canes way better than your 49 stick

wind dragon
#

I was swapping between samurai and white mage, but I think the game was super easy because I was way outlevelled for most of the content

jolly sorrel
#

Ohh, I see! Never knew, great. Do the other roulettes also give "base" poetics?

twilit arch
#

"Base" poetics means from the instance itself\

wind dragon
#

it''s strange though because I wasn't really struggling that bad in dungeons

wintry chasm
#

Oh I see so you just never chose the white mage weapon rewards from main story lol

wind dragon
#

for heals

jolly sorrel
#

Do any other instances also give poetics?

manic flare
twilit arch
#

50/60/70 dungeons

open coral
manic flare
#

that's one of the weird thiings about ffxiv

open coral
#

Some of the Trials also have a baseline poetics rewardd

wind dragon
#

oh interesting

open coral
#

But not all of them

twilit arch
#

anything that was old level capped instances will give poetics

jolly sorrel
#

Aha, that is really good to know. Give or take how much? Or does that really differ depending on what run you get?

twilit arch
#

it depends on the instance

open coral
#

Depends on the instance

twilit arch
#

all of that information is shown on the instance's duty finder page

jolly sorrel
#

Good call, I'll check that.

#

Thank you

#

Can anyone recommend savage raids/extreme trials video guides that are really indepth? I feel like a lot of guides I've seen don't go into enough depth sometimes and also use stock footage that doesn't show clearly what is actually happening.

wintry chasm
#

^

open coral
#

Mizzteq's guides are very in depth

wintry chasm
#

also clear voiced

open coral
#

Yes

pulsar escarp
#

the format is really nice

manic flare
#

if you can get over her puns

pulsar escarp
#

ah yes

open coral
#

She breaks down fights nicely by mechanics, and shows them in slow motion as well, so you can see what to look for.

pulsar escarp
#

She also explains what the mechanics actually do rather than ‘stand here when this happens’ and not telling you why

manic flare
green grail
#

joonbob is really good too, clear diagrams of how to handle most mechanics interlaced with ingame footage, though they don't post a guide for everything

open coral
pulsar escarp
#

MTQ saved my sprout ass for the Crystal raids

manic flare
#

tbh tho, you really dont need to know anything going into the crystal raids. just do what people tell u

twilit arch
open coral
#

I mean... the CT raids are pretty faceroll at this point.

manic flare
#

but mtq mentions so many others

open coral
#

Even if people don't do the tower mechanics on Scylla, you can still clear the fight, for example.

manic flare
#

apparently you don't have to do the mechanics for the final boss of lost city of amdapor either

strange coral
#

A lot of MTQ videos were made at the time that content was new and you actually had to do mechanics. A lot of those mechanics can be ignored now.

manic flare
#

you dont have to do any of the doors

open coral
#

Yeah, that's true. It hurts, and an unprepared healer might not thank you for it, but I don't think I've ever actually understood the mechanics on the last boss in Lost City.

pulsar escarp
#

At this point yeah

#

But when I first did world of darkness as a sprout

pulsar escarp
#

I would’ve been a complete deadweight idiot if i didn’t watch a video lmao

open coral
#

Angra Mainyu is a raid killer even if most people do know the mechanics there.

strange coral
#

WoD is a bit of an exception. I see a lot of runs fall to that first boss

manic flare
#

agraa mainyu is the reason why WoD can take up to 50 minutes, instead of 20

pulsar escarp
#

Also Get Behind the Ice makes so much sense NOW for Amon but as a sprout? No way

#

Sprout looking at mechanics was me, running away from literaly everything

manic flare
#

the quaaga/levitation thing never made sense to me until

pulsar escarp
#

Oh yeah

#

stack those.

#

never would’ve guessed

open coral
#

I mean, inevitably if you run away with the levitation target, half the raid will yell at you after you die.

pulsar escarp
#

Yeah, but only after

open coral
#

But they'll let you run off and die first.

pulsar escarp
#

CT and MTQ was the saviour

open coral
#

Nobody's going to chase your ass down.

manic flare
twilit arch
open coral
#

This is true.

pulsar escarp
#

in short: MTQ is great and can save your ass from literal satsasha to savage shit

stone stone
#

I wish I could practice on my own lol, my first attempt at them is going to be rough and people are probably not going to be happy

pulsar escarp
#

I do check comments too though, just because she might miss something

manic flare
#

most dungeons are pretty self-explanatory. it's just when you get to the level-capped dungeons, trials and raids, where mechanics become a thing

sweet crane
#

so, obscure question, but does a character count as a party of 1?
the levelling roulette has a new function to limit your dungeon to within 8 levels of your party
I've tried using it, and it doubles or triples the wait time in the roulette, so I assume you are a party of 1
but when a dungeon finally popped, it was well lower than 8 levels below mine

pulsar escarp
twilit arch
#

its for premade groups

#

that option that is, so if you're 2-4 ppl you can use it. can't use it as 1 person

pulsar escarp
stone stone
#

Are you expected to get those dps overlays for raids?

sweet crane
open coral
#

Addons of any kind are technically against TOS, so they are never expected from anyone.

strange coral
#

PS4/5 players raid without them, so...

open coral
#

SE tolerates them, however, provided that you don't harass people with them.

pulsar osprey
open coral
#

Of course they do.

I have a question, im new to the game and i'm not sure if i should pick the chaos or light server

Japan does not make up the majority of the playerbase.

#

And PC players definitely exist in Japan.

twilit arch
#

this is a more serious channel so jokes like that are pretty much going to be met with serious answers

wind dragon
#

ok yeah the issue was 100% my item level.. I just bought the ironworks staff for WHM and beefed up all my gear at the the market place and quickly got myself to ilvl 124.. then I went back and the quest was much much easier.

pulsar escarp
#

conga rats!

#

Did you bought NQ gears?

wind dragon
#

Do the NPC companions also scale? I noticed they were fighting better after my iLVL went up

cold frost
#

When in doubt,power up

wind dragon
#

they weren't dying as fast

pulsar escarp
#

I mean that might be your healing or regen but maybe?

viscid fossil
#

Is the "Oriental Striking Dummy" can only be crafted? Someone said purchase with seals?

I don't see it listed for seals. Only crafted.

Do you only have one magicite or did you get more from her previous quests?

twilit arch
#

not the channel for that @pulsar osprey

I've only 1 magicite

Oh, she's tell you to go find it

she's directing you to the area to find it

they give you a general idea of where to go to find it

vital ruin

Ohh near the observatory

twilit arch
gritty oracle
umbral void
#

Do I have to assign a skill to a hotbar for my chobo to use it? Or will it use heal skills automatically

twilit arch
#

it will use skills it knows automatically in free/the appropriate stance

gritty oracle
#

it will cast choco regen if you're below 90%, and choco cure if you're below 50%

umbral void
#

Ah okay because the wording confused me saying "Order" the chocobo to cast regen

#

So cool one less thing to worry about in rotation

vital ruin
#

Thanks :)

I have a question regarding the screenshot sweepstakes thing that SE put out

#

For what you need for the sweepstakes it says:

Take a screenshot of your character in your favorite location using the in-game Group Pose function. The screenshot must include the text stickers: Character Name, Date/Time, and Duty Name.

^
I can't find anywhere in the gpose where you can apply this. I've looked at every option carefully. Can I get some help with this?

green grail

you have to switch the image-text to the text-text

#

the switch on the right

What is the end-game zone for stormblood where I can buy poetics gear? Trying to work on the post-storblood msq but my item level isn't able to hit 300

but it's not like Idyllshire

It doesn't unlock early

twilit arch

can also buy it in kugane

Ah thank you so much! ❤️

open coral
#

E10 will drop all three though.

twilit arch
#

so does e9

open coral
#

Oh yeah it does.

#

Missed that.

#

10 just drops everything.

buoyant sorrel
#

I've already got chest arms and something else I can't remember

twilit arch
#

i'd personally go e9 because i apparently can't remember right from left

buoyant sorrel
#

That one still confuses me too 🥺 I've watched the run on YouTube so many times

tribal shadow
#

how do i get the "built up" experience? i remember the game told me early on, but i forgot lol

analog gate
#

you mean rested exp?

tribal shadow
#

i guess thats what i mean yes

#

the light brown bar

analog gate
#

if you stay in safe areas (big cities and areas near aetherytes) you'll slowly gain rested exp

#

this includes the time you spent offline, so generally you should log out in safe areas

tribal shadow
#

okay, but does it get turned into normal exp just by staying there too, or do i just get more of it?

#

or am i misunderstanding something

strange coral
#

It applies a bonus to the exp you earn until that section of your exp bar is filled

tribal shadow
#

ahhhh okay, thanks 😄

void venture
#

how do i unlock warrior i reach lv 30

#

where do i need to go

burnt crown
#

If we got whm or diurnal sect ast in-team, and i use nocturnal sect, should i prioritize heavily on shield? sometimes i got insecured putting up only shield... especially when another healer seems not to take action. or should i just play diurnal sect to double the healing

How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

void venture
#

i done both

#

where to check quest

tribal shadow
#

unlocking job, does that mean like a gladiator turning into something new?

strange coral

is it smart to do once you reach level, or can i wait?

So I just bought the complete edition, and I can't actually download it, it stops and throws up an error 30437, anyone have any idea what I'm supposed to do to fix this?

tribal shadow
#

cause i need to do that if so lol

strange coral
twilit arch
#

you should be getting your job the moment you can

strange coral
tribal shadow
#

ok thanks, i should do that now then

twilit arch
#

you're hurting yourself if you don't because you're missing out on a chunk of your skills

@strange coral is it in limsa

How many protean crystals do you need for an anemos weapon
I've 1256 on me

twilit arch
#

general content, you dont need to go nocturnal

#

can just double up on regens with whm

fallen axle
#

Does doing the quest to unlock the beast tribes in ARR also unlock the tribes in Heavensward? Or is it a separate quest? And is that quest locked behind MSQ?

twilit arch
#

for harder end-game content, its generally ideal to go nocturnal especially when you're progging a fight

#

seperate unlocks @fallen axle

burnt crown
#

tyty @twilit arch

twilit arch
#

all beast tribes have their own unlocks. some of them only require msq, some of them have side quest requirements

fallen axle
#

Are they good exp? Like while I’m queued for dungeons on my Lv33 MCH would running those be good?

twilit arch
#

ARR beast tribes are ok exp, the dailies have set levels so their exp doesn't scale

fallen axle
#

Also, is there a simple guide for earning GC bonds and promoting? Until I hit the point I can apparently donate armor to them?

twilit arch
#

Expansion beast tribes tho are pretty decent xp, they do scale within their level range

fallen axle
#

Hmm cool. Yeah mainly looking for stuff to do on MCH when I’m queued for dungeons

twilit arch
#

Do your grand company hunting log (you'll need this done for promotions), can also do fates while waiting in queue to help with seals. Daily leveling roulette also helps with seal generation before you're sergeant second class

fallen axle
#

Fates reward GC seals?

twilit arch
#

yes

fallen axle
#

😎

#

Awesome thank you I’ll look at the hunting log also

#

But is there a small guide about GC or beast tribes? Or am I better off watching a YT vid?

twilit arch
#

not aware of any guides for them, since they're pretty straight forward

rich bay

#

oh do i need to finish way of the marauder

#

for warrior

twilit arch
#

yes you need to do your marauder class quests to unlock warrior

Hello. I'm a fairly new player in general, and was looking at some advice on how to setup a controller, and well... I only got so far before I was unable to set skills and actions to some of the hotbars. Is anybody who players console willing to help me out with this?

That only works for the basic hotbars and crosskeys. Extended hotbars from double clicking or simul-clicking don't come up when choosing actions and traits, nor do custom hotbars.

I'm planning on leveling my DoH classes... is it a better idea to level them simultaneously or grind each class to 80 individually?

leaden ginkgo
#

hi, is there any trading channel in this server ?

twilit arch
#

generally recommended to level them together

leaden ginkgo
stray osprey
#

There is a setting to enable extra cross-bars by double clicking the trigers, or clicking them at the same time. This gives you even more options. BUT, I can't figure out how to set actions or traits to them like you can the default crossbars. If anybody can help with this on controller, I'd appreciated it. Thank you for trying to help, @dapper trellis

You can change what hotbars those look at in character config > hotbars > custom

**Thunder Mastery** : lvl 45 BLM

stray osprey
#

When Actions and Traits ask you to click what hotbar and then you just hold R2 or something and set the skill. Why doesn't that same function allow me to double click R2 to access the extended hotbar? Why is this so complicated?

faint flare
#

You assign the skill to the cross hotbar the extended/wxhb is referring to

#

Its not hard

merry mantle
#

yeah i just realized that now after wlooking this is what i get for being away too dang long

faint flare
#

If your double tap r2 is referring to Cross hotbar 2

#

You put skills on cross hotbar 2

#

Then it shows up

stray osprey
#

It just sounds like gibberish to me what you're saying, I'm sorry. If I go into Actions and Traits, then click on a skill to assign it, I can ONLY ACCESS THE DEFAULT CROSS HOTBARS. The ones access via double clicking or clicking both do not work when setting actions and traits.

faint flare
#

Again, double tap triggers and holding both triggers LOOK AT YOUR DIFFERENT CROSS HOTBARS

stray osprey
#

WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?!

faint flare
#

They look at

#

Different cross hotbars

#

Gor what they show

#

If your double tap trigger hotbar is looking at Cross hotbar number 2

warm snow
#

The double tap right trigger is set to look at say the left side of crosshotbar 9

#

It's all in your settings

faint flare
#

You assign skills to cross hotbar number 2

#

Then it shows up on the double tap trigger hotbar

#

Again

#

You can check and change this

#

Im character config > hotbar settings > custom

#

To see what hotbars those extra hotbars are looking at

stray osprey
#

okay, so my tiny brain is finally figuring this out. It doesn't CREATE extended hotbars for you to set skills to, it just creates a visual copy of an existing hotbar that you normal switch to with the bumbers. So to set things to extended cross hotbars, I do not do it directly, but in the source hotbar.

#

That is way too complicated.

faint flare
#

Yes

#

They are essentially modifers like on keyboard in a sense

gritty oracle
#

In company crafting, do HQ components give more quality?

faint flare
#

So double check what hotbars the Extended and WXHB are looking at in the character config and assign skills to those hotbars

Turn on a regular hotbar via Character config, then use the virtual mouse (L1+r3) to drag and drop skills onto it

the virtual mouse is just the touch pad, right?

About the crafting 80 thing, will the white scrip gear (ilvl 500) be enough to get max collectability?

does anybody know a good Dragoon hotbar setup for controller that isn't outdated? Something that kinda groups the rights skills in the right cross hotbars or maybe has a good skill rotation?

low moth
#

hi guys question if i play through stream do i still need to register a square enix account?

open coral

I mean, hotbar setups are kind of a personal preference thing.

steam doesn't handle account management

open coral
#

For mine, I like to group combos or skills with similar effects/uses.

twilit arch
#

all it does is the source of how you purchase the game, you still have to make a mogstation acct.

Hello, I'm not sure if this question is fit in here
But gamerscape says that only Byakko's Rod desynthesis have a chance to drop a Byakko's Mane
Is this correct? Or Someone else got the mane from other weapons/shield?

low moth
#

how do i get the free trial account?

twilit arch
#

the desynth page is often not complete

coarse glade
#

oh makes sense

twilit arch
#

Generally if you can get it from one of the weapons, you should be able to get it from all of them

yeah I tried to desynth a bunch of shields but no such luck
then again it's rng after all

shadowbringers tribes are dwarves, pixies, and qitari

I'm curious how long the Heavensward expansion is compared to A Real Reborn? Is it about the same? 20% shorter?

twilit arch
#

but also used as a catch all term for the shb relic in general

buoyant sorrel
#

And the Bozja relic weapons are the strongest so far?

twilit arch
#

the relic for shadowbringers isn't complete yet. 5.55 will be releasing the last step, with that it will be the strongest weapon ye

anyone know why I can't get a replica bozja weapon after I've done the step

if you're talking about the recollection/laws order step, need to augment law's order before those replicas will appear

I've got an ARR relic weapon that I want to use as a glamour but it's not letting me?

i assume you're trying to put it in the dresser?

Are you trying to apply it as a glamour to a lower level weapon or a weapon for a different job?

Is not a replica relic weapon I'm not sure how to do it

you can't put the normal relic into the dresser. it has to be a replica

buoyant sorrel
twilit arch

what's the weapon you're trying to put glamour onto

open coral
#

You cannot glamour a higher level weapon onto a lower level one.

So ARR relics can't be glamoured onto anything under level 50

So is there no orchestrion sheet for the song that plays for the False Idol :L

open coral
#

It should be one of the possible scrolls that drop at the end of TPB

#

There are like 8

#

But only 3 drop per run, and it's random.

modern arrow
#

No the only ones are "Song of the End" "Song of the end 8bit" "Mourning" "Emil (Depsair)" and "Kaine (FFXIV Mix)"

#

Kaine plays during Her Inflorescene

open coral
#

Hang on, let me confirm which song plays during the first phase of that fight then.

modern arrow
#

I've looked up each of the names and none of them match False Idol's

pulsar escarp
#

Is that possessed by disease?

#

I think you might have got it in the quests leading up to it or something

modern arrow
#

I dont think so since we get that from the quest before unlocking TPB

#

Lemme check if so imma be hype af

pulsar escarp
#

yeah, but it’s the same music I think?? Get back to me on that

#

I remember also liking first phase music

twilit arch
#

sounds same to me, from listening to the automata ost

pulsar escarp
#

and I think that was it

modern arrow
#

Oh shit it is

#

That exciting

open coral
#

Yeah, I knew it was one of the scrolls you could get. I just didn't have a specific recollection of what the song sounded like.

#

Had to go listen to it.

pulsar escarp
#

hehe

modern arrow
#

My lazy ass didn't bother listening to them because I was like "THeres no way they'd give us orchestrions for a song that plays in a fight we haven't done yet"

raven burrow
#

can someone give me an estimate on how much gil i need to save for housing? something like a really fleshed out L or M plot

open coral
#

They were really good about making all of the OST available through some method.

pulsar escarp
#

It’s cuz I’m pretty sure it’s base nier music

modern arrow
#

Omg I just realized I didn't put my question in spoilers gasp

#

My bad

pulsar escarp
#

Oh don’t worry

#

I guess zero context

#

No one will know

twilit arch
pulsar escarp
#

Maybe add some now just to be safe I guess

open coral
#

lol

raven burrow
twilit arch
#

i would say aim for mediums because trying to get larges are basically impossible

raven burrow
#

thats way more than expected

open coral
#

The plot alone is a big investment, but then fleshing out the house and getting all the furnishings is even more.

pulsar escarp
#

an apartment is 300K

twilit arch
#

the cost of decorating the house itself though is going to vary depending on whether you've got crafters leveled or not

#

being able to make your own housing items will reduce cost significantly

modern arrow
#

Yeah but you can decorate a house slowly over time

open coral
#

Because some furnishings can run you into the 10s of millions

pulsar escarp
#

and you don’t have to worry about logging in it maintain it

raven burrow
#

welp , guess its gonna be a while..

modern arrow
#

The true big purchase is the plot itself after that you can either craft the furnishing or farm it

#

I'm still trying to figure out whats selling right now I wanna upgrade to a medium 🥲

raven burrow
#

alright thanks

modern arrow
#

Actually heres a question, whats the main thing to look out for on the mb to start making some gil

#

Tell me your secrets capitalists of FFXIV >:)

pulsar escarp
#

I just grinded loads of moogle tomes to resell seals

#

Wasn’t amazing money

twilit arch
#

basically look at the sales history of items. see whats selling consistently. can also give the "heart" items a look see

pulsar escarp
#

But funny enough for me

twilit arch
#

since those are items people have put on their wishlist and keep an eye on

modern arrow
#

Thats what I normally do but I always get that one person who undercuts me every other minute for 3 days straight and I don't feel like keeping up with that

mental oracle
pulsar escarp
#

Uh, different tax rates

twilit arch
#

your retainer can't sell items while you're interacting with them

#

so they're not visible on the market until you stop interacting with them

mental oracle
#

oh taxes

open coral
#

When you summon a retainer who is actively selling items, they temporarily pull your items from the market.

onyx anchor
#

Does travelling between areas reset the Mana on RDM?

open coral
#

Yes

modern arrow
#

Yes

open coral
#

Changing areas resets all stackable resources for all classes.

pulsar escarp
#

You can check retainer vocate for tax rates

twilit arch
#

that message has nothing to do with taxes though

pulsar escarp
#

I for one don’t know shit

modern arrow
#

And lilies and ast seals and aetherflow and kenki 🥲

onyx anchor
#

Aight, ty

pulsar escarp
#

that’s true... but I assumed they were questioning the ul dah part

#

Mb if not

modern arrow
#

any type of class gauge resources gets wiped

#

not me not being able to think of a word other than resources

#

I miss when you could travel to the city state and item was being sold in and it didn't deduct taxes fro myou 😦

buoyant sorrel
open coral
#

Uhh, I'm not 100% sure on this but I don't think you can glamour over a baseline Ingrimm relic?

modern arrow
#

You can, I used the Makai WHM wep over Ingrimm for a bit

twilit arch
#

there's no reason why you wouldn't be able to glamour over ingrimm

wintry chasm
#

You're probably trying to glamour Ingrimm on Thyrus by accident? You rightclick Ingrimm and press cast glamour and not rightclick Thyrus

modern arrow
#

@buoyant sorrel Are you using the glamour dresser to do so or manually casting it?

glossy flare
#

you definitely can, I did so when i didn't want the tree

buoyant sorrel
open coral
#

I know what Ingrimm is.

#

I thought that the base relics couldn't be glamoured over.

#

But Kael said I'm wrong on that.

#

So that's not the issue then.

warm snow
#

Anything can be glamoured over

modern arrow
#

@open coral I currently have the BLM Relic glamoured over

warm snow
#

But there are restructions

buoyant sorrel
#

That's when I thought i might need the Thyrus Repclia to use for a glamour instead

twilit arch
#

no

#

show a screenshot of the glamour screen please?

modern arrow

Would playing on the server with the xp boost ruin my first experience? The game recommended it to me but i'm not sure

Honestly I'm 90% sure I'm right here but yeah a screenshot would prove it

does anyone else know what this problem is and how to fix it? i re-downloaded ffxiv through the free trial page in order to reinstall it, and after i sort english in language and region, it doesn't move. it flickers and doesn't do anything

@patent shuttle You'll be overleveled but it other than that not really

It can help if you choose to swap classes in the middle of your MSQ so that you dont get level locked if you find out you enjoy a tank class more than lets say a dps or vice versa

Is there an accessory equivalent to the lv80 role gear you get?

important part or not

Idk some of it seems worth sitting through more than others. It already takes long enough to get caught up with story. I am nearly double my current story missions lvl req.

I found the job questline more interesting than some msq stuff

i havent seen a single person who rushed to endgame play for more than like a month

umbral void

Idk im coming from guild wars 2. That story doesn't take very long AND most of it is presented during gameplay such as fighting dialogue.

this is a final fantasy game

its going to play like one

yep

This game is like the exact opposite of that.

because the devs made it that way

You also lose your free fantasia

ARR is long because they needed an entire base game in order to continue funding the project beyond 1.0

Like when can I progress to pago's
At what element lv

polar hound

check #resources for the eureka discord, they have hella info

#

Its recommended to stay in anemos until 25

twilit arch
#

17 is the final quest but....its generally recommend to stay til 25

vital ruin
#

Why

twilit arch
#

because pagos is annoying as fuck

#

and you make your life a bit easier going in later

vital ruin
#

Oh

polar hound

easier to transition into pagos

Pagos has a lot of higher level stuff

As compensation for all that, BLU can use any learned spell in any level content, and have a buff to xp gains from killing enemies.

Which makes them incredibly OP with very little effort.

They have a few spells they can learn which are literal insta-kills.

#

But its burst is insane

Is scholar a good job for a new player w/ Arcanist role or should i focus myself on Invoker?

faint flare
#

All jobs are good

#

Its a healer opposed to a dps

wintry chasm
#

whatever you want, just appreciate that scholar is an entirely different role so would need to adjust a little to new responsibilities

open coral
#

I honestly wouldn't recommend either SMN or SCH for a new player, as both have a particular complexity to them, but neither is a bad job to play.

wintry chasm
#

besides scholar and summoner share the same level so it doesn't really matter

limpid tartan
#

ah?

wintry chasm
open coral
#

Because they share the same base class (Arcanist) SMN and SCH share experience.

#

They're the only two jobs that do.

How do you guys manage all these skill keys? So many skills and combos and etc.

by rebinding hotkeys and rearranging hotbars

faint flare

3 hotbars with modifiers

what is the process of buying a plot? do you just keep passing through all the plots in all the wards checking if any of them is empty?

faint flare

And good hotkeys

Is FF14 also add-on heavy like WoW? Any recommended add-ons?

ACT/Parsing

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

ACT/FFLogs Guide

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

why would a plot be empty but not for sale?

agile laurel
#

stealth timer. stops people flipping plots for gil

#

when a plot is relinquished, an unspecified amount of time must pass before it can be purchased

glossy flare
#

Which just means people camp in front of empty plots

agile laurel
# devout crystal Oh?!

short answer, yes against ToS. However, they also can't know - they have no way of checking files. A good amount of people use ACT for parsing, and the visual mod community is fairly large

#

but it's on a strict don't-ask-don't-tell basis

#

admit to using mods/addons/parsers ingame and expect to be banned

devout crystal
#

I see

glossy flare
#

there are next to no functional feature addons though

devout crystal
#

I guess I will just find a way to key bound all these skills little better.

glossy flare
#

in the end all jobs need roughly 3 hotbars worth of space

agile laurel
#

there is like. 1. mechanic in one fight in the entire game where some people might admit 'yeah using a callout addon for this is basically fine'

glossy flare
#

just so you can plan ahead

#

Also modifier keys are very helpful

#

So you can reuse 1 as shift +1 or ctrl + 1

#

So I never did the coils of Bahamut, I just went to straight to heavensward. Is there any gear worth it theee? Or is it worth doing to unlock more stuff for the roulette?

faint flare
#

Its not in any roulettes

fallen axle
#

And I’m guessing that part of the story is important cause it involves bahamut

faint flare
#

And the gear it drops is outdated

glossy flare
#

If you're already in HW then there is no gear worth getting there

faint flare
#

And judt glamour

glossy flare
#

the story is nice

#

But no one does coils synced

faint flare
#

The story wraps up 1.0 stuff

fallen axle
#

Oh and if it isn’t synced I need to be in a party but on trial I can’t use PF.

glossy flare
#

The story is by no means essential knowledge though

fallen axle
#

Oh well I’ll revisit it when I buy the game

glossy flare
#

Still, it gives some nice insight into certain characters

fallen axle

Ah

#

Is there a way to test ping on PS4 or would it be the same as my computer? I tested on laptop and got 68 - is that good?

faint flare
#

It should be thr same as computer as its the same internet connection

#

68 is pretty good

glossy flare
#

if anything using wifi on your laptop gets you a slightly worse result

#

(assuming you do use wifi)

nova umbra
#

can you turn in these for GC seals?

rough fossil
#

Okay, cool. I’m on the East Coast and was just wondering since I know the servers as West Coast

nova umbra
#

the answer is: no

#

you cannot turn them in for seals 😠

#

but you can desynth 👀

#

What's more important, Craftsmanship or Control?

faint flare
#

CP

onyx anchor
#

?

sour ruin
#

The third crafting stat, Crafting Points, the most important because it lets you use your abilities more

faint flare
#

CP is more important

leaden ginkgo
#

How long does it take to transfer a character to another server?

faint flare
#

You only need as much Craftsmanship and control as the receipe calls for

onyx anchor
wintry chasm
#

you can with the accessories

#

also melding materia in the gear I guess if you count that

faint flare
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

Anyone saw my questions?

faint flare
#

Usually not long

leaden ginkgo
#

Interesting.

#

Which server is popular in Japan and Asia?

faint flare
#

Tonberry/kuja for English people

glossy flare
#

All of them are pretty popular though, it has the most worlds for a reason

onyx anchor
#

Do you just get Aldgoat skin by killing them?

fallen axle
#

How is Ninja class? It seems tricky with the combos to weave the signs and stuff

glossy flare
#

pretty straightforward actually

#

just gotta designate some braincells to remember the mudra combos

#

which are not weaved anymore

#

They are just straight up gcds

wintry chasm
onyx anchor
#

Hehehe

wintry chasm
#

also shit like this is why retainers are nice, you can send them out to fetch materials for you

#

saving yourself a lot of effort

sour ruin

wintry chasm
#

realllllly recommend getting on that sooner rather than later

fallen axle
#

@glossy flare ah they revamped it? I must have been looking at an old article

wintry chasm
#

Wayyy better

fallen axle
#

That’s cool I might give that a shot too. MCH is cool too though I’m so torn and not enough time in the day

wintry chasm
#

and they changed the potencies to compensate

manic flare
#

speaking of retainers, i was actually able to get a glowy weapon from a quick exploration venture (the auroral set), which i didn't thinnk was possible

devout crystal
#

Starting race’s base stat difference makes any meaningful difference in the end? Like a race with low dex end up becoming dex class would be suboptimal or something?

glossy flare
#

To summarize NIN's feel at 80 though: Basically everything revolves around the trick attack window that comes around every 60s.

In that window things are pretty fast paced since you cram as much dmg as possible in there. Outside of that window however you mostly just do the basic 1-2-3

remote lintel
#

race doesnt matter

glossy flare
#

So it has a sort of up and down feel

fallen axle
#

That’s nice though sometimes

manic flare
#

only gear stats

fallen axle
#

Instead of feeling pressured with 100% uptime

devout crystal
#

Got it.

fallen axle
#

And needing to stay super focused

oak ice
#

The racial stats are 1-3 stat points where we have currently hundreds

glossy flare
#

I mean hitting the basic 1-2-3 outside of the TA window is still crucial

manic flare
#

in endgame gear gives like, for example +500 strength, where your starting racial stats differ by as much as 3-4 at most

glossy flare
#

It's just not as fast paced with barely any weaving

#

Almost all the weaving is during TA

devout crystal
#

Lol. Got it. Thank you.
