You can remove randomize pose in the settings and reduce the delay
Ok
With the legs almost touching lol
if you use /cpose with the randomizer turned off, it will remember the last pose you stopped at
Randomize makes it so your cpose isn't the same every time
you're just locking it in and saving it with it off
Yes
Dragoon seems way more fun than black mage
Each to their own
I’m only level 37 though 😂
jobs do change a lot as they level so :p
Black Mage gets a big shift in rotation at 60
That's when the big booms happen
Red mage looks fun
Big booms make brain happy
Warrior is fun
Only one mount has special speed properties and that's only on land
Well technically slepnir has a special walking speed too and unlike the one you're on about the difference isn't made up for later
Are potd and hoh used for anything specific like leveling? If so, which level ranges should I use them for? Thank!

Potd 60 and under, hoh 61-70
Great. Thanks!
Can you only get one Tower of Paradigms Breach coin per week?
yes (edit: the lockout will be removed in 5.57)
would ishgard or leves be better for levelling crafters from 50-60
Same as for 1-50, leves is technically better but way more annoying in terms of materials needed and also ishgard gives scrips too which is nice so it's just easier to do ishgard, still great xp
aight
The only addition to crafting leveling compared to ARR is that when you get a crafter to 60 you can unlock custom delivery weeklies WHICH YOU SHOULD 1000000% DO @crystal bluff
yeah, i already did my deliveries with my miner this week
gonna do them with crafters this week to get level 60 crafter gear
is there a thumbs up emote in this game?
no but male middies do it in the agree emote or whatever its called
It should just be called /thumbsup
Maybe /agree
But in the emote list it definitely looks like a thumbs up
How do I use this waypoint to teleport to another one?
you dont
nvm its literally called /thumbsup
only in cities to teleport around the city
you cant teleport from 1 big aetheryte to another big aetheryte
Hey guys i get random pm from someone time to time say “you are invited to our 300mil raffle giveaway thing” is that scam ?
Gotcha thx
Kk
Do I really need to log in in the morning to harvest spruce log? Or is the game time faster?
One full day in game is roughly 70 minutes
Thanks. Just noticed the sun symbol revolving the minimap
You can click on the clock to display Eorzea time
Why there is an in-game weather forecast?? Any impact on game play???
Special fates and Fish
Fishing
lol
And general atmosphere in a map
Super fates have unique weather to show they're up
Rain looks good on high graphics
I thought this game is pretty old. How does it keep up with the graphics and new content? For example, GW2 is already at its maximum capacity. They are using a heavily modified GW1 engine. Does not even support dx11 I believe. Becomes super laggy when about 30 ppl gather up.
This game looks amazing.
Big company got big monies
They add more duct tape to the system
lol
The game stops rendering other players when there are too many in one spot
It just grabs the closest ones if you're doing a hunt
For example
Or if there's a concert
!faq 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.
Fates are like the lil open world events right?
Yes
yeah
Is there a way to turn the damage off for other players?
Yes
Which setting is it under
Is there any place I can buy accessories like rings? Could'nt find any shops in foundation
Under character config, turn off Pop up text
Nvm I'm blind
@faint flare will that disable only others dps or mine aswell?
Ok thanx
well it'll disable your dot dmg text
since for whatever reason that's under pop up text
do gathering classes really not have a level 80 quest? that seems odd to me
they dont have a capstone quest like combat jobs do
but htere is a lvl 80 facet quest for them

@faint flare do you know if there is a way when u kill an enemy to auto switch to the next one?
No
Damn I got used to that feature in gw2 lol
anyone have any idea which eden promise is the fastest to clear? and also is the antiquity drops not weekly anymore
Would of been useful
Good Morning everyone, cone someone help me with downloading the game?
blade is still weekly
Tried VPN/DNS/Disable Firewall/Windows Def/Anti Virus. non of them works. I keep getting theses error 😦
try using the quicklauncher?
Where can I find that?
Thank you, I'll try this one out
So I'm new and don't understand. What's with all the Blue Mage hate?
hate?
Yeah people making memes about blue mage, putting at bottom of tier lists, etc
it's a limited job that has restrictions on what duties they can participate in, so people who "rank" it are usually joking
it's not a true combat job like other dps
Where can I get this ? https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/gearset/far-eastern-schoolboys
mog station
Its the best job for farming things cause its burst is unparalleled
Doh! Thanks.
@remote lintel I think the quick launcher you provided is working. Thank you so much! 🙂
What item I need to put in my glamour to have my hands naked?
emperors new gloves
thanks 🙂
hello! I wanted to ask if there any gilgamesh players who would want to help out a small FC try to learn the new raid? We tried but we kept getting people that were assholes and would not help out or complain about us just barely starting
post in the recruitment channel
i finished the sylph management story quest. why am i notpromoted to warrior?
because you need to do the warrior job quest
!faq jobs
You gotta do the WAR quest
On your MSQ tracker, while you're Marauder
There is the quest there
whats penalty counter for duty? how can i check it? and how long does it last?
i queued up and then had to use the restroom and took longer than i originally planned....
Cant really check, lasts 30 minutes, the penalty counter is 3 missed queues=30 mins with no duty finder, or exiting a duty in progress when no one has left yet
okay so a single penalty isnt gonna be detrimental just yet
You dont get a penalty for missing one queue, no
Just wanted to ask if Aug. Exarchic is better than Law's Order w/ 5 DH 8's
What's iLVL of Law and Order?
whats the msq tracker
the big bar in the corner of your screen with the msq name on it
This thing
Switch to Marauder
Wait, there's 520?
Mine is 510
I'm on SMN btw
so the substats for Aug. Ex is good
i equipped marauder
Whats your Marauder lvl?
32
is there anything under the msq tracker
my little chocobo maelstrom
Why does my chara always sit cross legged and relaxed on certain mounts? It really undercuts the tension of certain cutscenes 🤣
calling you out midgarsomr
racial differences
Well you should do this before thinking of becoming WAR
When you've done it, there where it says "Trial by Wind" your quest to become a WAR should pop in

Does E12S small lion tethers have any priority for which type of DPS gets no tether?
[Firmament Aetheryte Ticket] Is this a one-time only teleport, or does it unlock teleport forever?
Hey guys would it be considered botting if I made a macro that lets me press NUM0->NUM4->NUM0 in quick succession for prompts (repair, doors, etc.)?
Do stats on gear not matter at all really other than a higher iLVL?
I'm on shire gear lvl 60
Prioritise item level until 80, yes
Okay cool
How long does shire gear stay relevant for? Until MSQ gear around lvl 65ish is my guess?
Technically you could mix it with raid gear, but halting progress to get it isn't worth it
Yes
Level 64 to be specific has i273
Hey is there anyone who would wanna help me with the basics of final fantasy 14 again? i played it allot but ran out of game time and could not get it for some financial reason but recently could finally get some game time after like half a year. So i kinda forgot allot of stuff if there is anyone who would wanna call maybe and answer some questions i got or give me a general idea of what to do again would be amazing.
do msq and 
except
that say "leves of"
for your class rotation look up weskalber on youtube
is there a training mode in ff14?
is that for me ?
I keep messing up my rotation sometimes and i dot want to wait 60 seconds for my dreadwyrm to come back up
is there a mode where i can reset my skills and cds?
@fringe bone yes
I dont get what u meant
You can reset skills and cds by entering an instance and then leaving it. Just make sure to set your duty finder options to "undersized party" so you don't get the penalty for abandoning a duty. @frozen wind
Whats the difference between the 3 status info?
Enhancements are buffs, Enfeeblements are debuffs, Others is things like dots and hots.
How do I fly in heavensword?
You have to unlock it per zone.
How do I do that
You should have an Aether Compass
There are 10 overworld currents and 5 quest-based currents per zone that you have to track down.
You'll get an Aether Compass around level 51 in the MSQ
@glass oyster I don't, I don't think I did that quest yet
Because I don't know where it is
Quest based is just the
markers
It's MSQ
Is there a guide to the hud layout? What is the focus target bar and notices?
focus bar gives you a second target bar. most people either use it to target the boss so they can see the cast bar/buffs while targeting something else
notices is where the commendation/loot menu boxes will appear
Can I have two characters with the same name on different servers?
yes
Thank you
what was summoenrs bis stat agian?
Wait I dont get the second target bar still? How do you activate that. I have it visible but nothing shows up when targeting striking dummy
direct hit or crit?
you need to make something your focus target first
shift+f is default keybind
Crit > DH >= Det > SpS @frozen wind
thank you!
A lot of people have done this for AFK housing plot auto-clicker... it is very shunned upon, do not do it
what is control used for when crafting?
Some have gotten banned
or have gotten their money taken, cuz they're autoclicking and they end up trading their gil away
Control increases quality @west parrot
If I finish Stormblood MSQ do I need to finish 4.1-4.5 content to acess Shadowbringers I assume
Yes
Yikes
I mean, ARR and HW were the same
At least it ain't as long as post ARR 
if my crafting/synthesis fails do I lose the materials?
Yep
D:
post ARR was rough

Sometimes you get the mats back
But that's RNG
ok thx
its a pretty low chance to get them back if you fail
what about using high quality items... does that increase the quality chances from the start?
yes to a point
i see
Quickest/most efficient way to level retainers? I normally do 2-3 Quick Explorations while I'm logged in then send them on the Hunting/Woodland/Waterside/Mining Exploration just before I log for the night.
Is this the best way?
Quick exploration exp is greatly affected by the item they bring back
thats no longer true
Oh?
they standardized quick venture exp
Ahhh
Are there any Decent mounts after level 50 that drop from dungeons/trials with reasonable drop rates?
So is it better or worse than normal venture?
@slim mango the lvl 50 ex trials can be easily farm solo if you have a lvl 70+ job
seems pretty decent option vs normal ventures
That's nice
I'm a free player for now but I'll think about that later
Ignoring guranteed mounts from quest reward or purchaseable in game mount using in game currency
Afaict, there aren't any mount that is particularly easier than other mounts in the same level range
In the latest alliance raid final boss what is the ff part of the song called ?
Kainé Salvation
That's the nier part
Oh
its Final Fantasy Main Theme
Why did they change so many voice actors for HW?
they changed voice acting studios with HW for the english cast
so pretty much everyone but 2 character had their voices changed
Hm, too bad. I much prefer the of cast
Ooh . Thankyou . I always thought prelude or crystal was main theme haha
*og
is running the Scenario roulette best way to farm tomes without going insane lol
just finished main heavensward MSQs, just started dragonsong war MSQs, current item level is 380, is it worth to aim for scaevan armor set next or should I aim for a different set?
how'd you get ilevel 380?
marketplace
ah
scaven is 400 so its not much more of an improvement tbh
hes in dragonsong war rn
Where is gather together mark located? Can't log in rn
That's what I'm thinking... which armor set should I aim for in stormblood?
Scaeven
just get what you can through msq
should still get sceavan once he's able to in stormblood
and then grab some scaevan with poetics when you reach it
I'm already I. Lv 380 tho, not much different from scaevan
marketboard isn't worth the investment anymore for non-current stuff
If you want to prioritize, weapon > chest/leg > other right sides > accessories
i can assure you that 20 ilevels still is worth grabbing
is stuff from tomestones good enough to carry me through the first half of each expansion
??
Yes
Why isn't drawven weapons dyable?
Ilvl 400 gear for example, is what the lvl 73 dungeon drops (not Scaeven, but same ilvl)
is it? alright, and then it's on to crystarium set in shadowbringers?
So it will last you into lvl 75-76 ish content
Shadowbringers max is Cryptlurker
Crystarium, is 20 ilvl short
shadowbringers tomestone gear uses different tomestones
because most weapons aren't dyeable
main ones that are dyeable are either tomestone, raid, or relic
Do I need to have all the diamonds filled in to be able to fly in that area?
Yep
Yep
Fuk
will scaevan set last me until the end of stormblood?
The only exception is ARR areas cuz you just get flying for those zones after finishing base ARR
after that you have to go look for aether currents yourself and do the sidequests for them
It'll last you till lv75 of Shadowbringers
sick
mate as someone who just did that for the entirety of HW, I don't envy you, but you should be able to get them all as you do the MSQs. Now, I can fly everywhere in HW zones
When you queue up for dungeon
ARR flying was added only very recently (august last year) so it will feel weird to have to manually get aether currents
Pop the compass and run around
There are 10 by discovery and 5 from quests
Yeah, after finishing ARR, you really take for granted the ability to fly lol
on the upside, I can fly everywhere now post-HW
Got used to not having to walk on different paths
And just flyiy above
Flyiy*
Fucking auto correct
Flying*
exactly, cutting through the cliffs and chasms lmao
Is there no means of glamouring low level armor to high level ones ,-,?
What's the main stat I should focus on for dancer?
No, cuz just equip the high level one in that case
how do I even play the game
yes, but you have to have glam items and can be equiped by the class
!faq newplayertips
say less
Sigh i just wanna use drachen as glamour on my newer set before i get my HW set
why not just equip the Drachen?
If it's higher level than your current set?
Hey, do I have to do the Hard mode dungeons, I just finished ARR, I dont want to miss out on unlocking anything but I also want to move forward with thes tory
Huh? My current set is level 130 ironwork stuff
Drachen is lower hence i cant glamour it to the set
!faq contentunlock
You can glamour that
yes you can
No, you can glam lower items on higher items
i read yer question wrong
Wha
@modest igloo thanks
Maybe i mess up the glmaour process
If you are able to equip=you are able to glam
You can start from the beginning of what you're doing and we can tell you why it's not working
Guess i do that after class ,-,
Will contact later
they're
, though the last one is usually the final main scenario quest in that zone
Are there multiple
or does 1 lead to all of them?
Anyone knows the hairstyle the miqo'te had in the sage reveal trailer
Is it endwalker exclusive
oh lmao
i got it
i should have cast glamour on the piece i want KEK
i did the opposite
fashionably feathered I believe
Its from pvp
Oh
Wait
No it's not
Really?
It should be the default miqo'te hairstyles
Ugh I know what it is but I don't remember the name I'm sorry
Okay so it was a default hairstyle
The samurai derplander hairstyle
hm, what's the requirement for leaving a raid without a penalty?
Someone has to leave before you
If you leave while the party is still 4 or 8 you eat a 30 min penalty
Any AST here?
Does it not matter what sect you're in for [Collective Unconsious]? It looks like they're just reversed
one effect is channeled and the other effect lasts for 15 secs
the sect determines which is which
hm what if the someone who left just got vote dismissed, then I leave?
You can leave then
okay cool thank you
what does astro stand currently in terms of DPS
good?
is gravity better than art of war?
Comparing healers in dungeon doesnt really brings much room to discussion, since no one has really given much thought into that
no but gravity isnt an aoe around you
not comparing in dungeons comparing in things like even Bozja
But Gravity is apparently worse in potency than Art of War, you compensate that missing DPS with slapping a card on someone
Personally I like ranged aoe
anything that isnt a raid or trial isnt good for comparison
where scholar is kinda screwed, because if it having a fairy
AST's DPS contribution is the highest among the healers
Not by a wide margin, but it is the highest
hmm...got penalized anyway
guess if it got filled again even after someone got kicked..it doesn't count
yeah ranged AoE is really nice
If it gets filled again, then the party is full
Does paladin have the least dps compared to the other tanks
I don't remember off the top of my head
theyre all basically the same
Even if it is, it is a difference smaller than 3-5 percent
I c
They're basically rounding errors away from each other. That being said, Paladin is 2/4 right now.
And DRK and GNB?
Unless Warrior passed them with the 5.5 buff, which is possible I suppose.
If a tank can play at the level to notice the difference, it won't matter to them anymore
GNB > PLD > WAR > DRK, speaking strictly of absolute top end play personal DPS.
Wait really
But again, the distance between those is a rounding error.
PLD beats DRK?
Even if this is true, it is a very tight win as warrior gets tiny potency buff here and there
Strictly from a damage output perspective, in current content, at the highest level of play? Yes.
This shows how incredibly close they are
Yeah I can't stress enough
Any of these differences are for the most part theoretical
Also how do I make a salted earth macro that drops in under me
It's such a pain on a controller
I've to go into first person then drop it under me then switch to third person
/ac "Salted Earth" <me>
Ah thanks :)
Repeat this line multiple times in one macro
Why
More chances of it activating
I believe that you want something like this
/merror off
/ac "Salted Earth" <me>
Repeat the Salted Earth call as many times as you can
/micon "Salted Earth"
Oh
Macro is inherently not clever
Macros are wonky, by you repeating the line, it helps diminish that wonkyness
(Not completely, but it helps)
What's merror off and micon
Micon gives your macro an icon
Ohh
Ah nice nice
The error isn't anything bad
its correct
I dont use /merror since it doesnt really bothers me
What would happen if you used micon first and merror off last
well
So I was told to focus doing the msq and blue plus sign quests that unlock stuff. Does that include leaves of xxx unlock quests as well??
merror wouldnt work
oh yeah
it has to be at the start of the macro
Ohh
no you can skip those
They're not terribly important until you're leveling gatherers or crafters
@devout crystal that will unlock leve quests for that particular zone
What the two of them said
I see.
You can leave (heh) them until you need them
Got it. Thank you.
Ropter, this is for serious question and help
That was a serious answer?
(that was a joke warning to your pun)
is the best gear obtained from (1. drops from dungeons/raids, 2. purchased with allagan tomestones 3. crafted)?

- Savage and endgame currency(capped to 450 per week)
so purchased?
But endgame currency gear is 10 iLVLs lower, so it needs to be upgraded...and to upgrade it, you do Savage(until next odd patch, when it is upgradeable by more casual means)
No
Savage gear cannot be purchased
Not all raids are Savage
, normal raids net you some pretty eh gear
so am i wasting my time crafting? it sounds like I'll need to do raids to get the gear then upgrade them with raid currency...
How can I get the currency that you buy Ironworks with without watching the movie?
Like, what's a good way to get it
Crafting(gear, and using it) is only for catching up/starting tier on week 1
It is already upgradeable by more casual means
Namely alliance raids and nuts
The crafted sets are the easiest gear to get to immediately start endgame content
But yeah ^^
for the NieR raid loot, a piece of equipment i.e - Maiming Top, the loot rules is applied for the 8 People within the alliance right? and not competed against all 24 people ?
Correct
You're only rolling against your party for gear
The aesthetic stuff at the end is Alliance wide
ah okay thanks for clarifying that up
What are people always going on about melding and breaking materia? Is there a benefit to doing it yourself compared to the NPC that does it for a small fee?
NPCs can't advanced melding
What do you get from advance melding?
Extra materia in an item
Ah I see
Can the nier raid loot armor be upgraded? Or stuck at 520
520 period
Is it worth trading in pentamelded i510 exarchic accessories for i520 exarchic that won't be pentameld?
I don't need the extra item levels to enter content technically so it's just a matter of damage
Can you get treasure maps by fishing or is it only mining and botanist
I mean, what else are you going to do with your allegory
Any dungeons/trials drop Cryptlurker items?
Which savage raids drop cryptlurker items?
You guys are still awake? Where is everybody from?
i see
Yes, which is why i said every odd patch
I'm in Tokyo
Same
I miss Tokyo.
This is not the right channel for this btw
this isn't the channel for off topic conversation
They are not dropped, but rather bought with the endgame currency
To be on the topic, I am thinking of paying for a job but I wondering which one? How are dragoon in the game?
So uhm if I notice someone using a bot all I can do is contact support right?
i strongly discourage you to buy a jobskip when its your first playthrough
yes
loll
great I got a house and this guy is not going away from the plot but instead just targeting and retargeting the placard
It's not my first playthought
Oh you know what would be funny?
Tell me
get one of those retainers stuff, put a retainer close to him so he starts autoclicking the retainer, and then sell thru that retainer normal items at 1 million each
and I don't feel like lving a tank class so why not pay for one. 😝
dragoon isnt tank tho?
I know
lol where do I get one?
0 votes and 5 comments so far on Reddit
This is like...evil btw, but the user in question is botting, so they cant really report you, because they were botting, which is against ToS
morally evil, but legally allowed
Take a video of the botter and post it
Pay for drg lvl 70 or a tank class to lvl 70? 🤔😝
I’d do tank, because there are 4 of them and only 1 Dragoon
already left
but I should be able to record it with shadowplay
Please don't
Do not levelboost tanks
You havent even played the game
and you are already thinking of boosting...

im a legacy member. Machinist lvl 70
azura, stop. this isn't the place to do that. just give the pros/cons of it
If you level them you learn a lot
Understood
Listen, alright, boosting the only pro you're getting is:
-You skip leveling the job, which reaches 70 instantly(still have to level the last 80 levels).
-You get 500k gil(I think? dont really remember)
-You get armor that's good enough for lvl 70
And here are the cons:
-You skip on the lore of the job
-You have no idea how the job plays(Due to no past experience, just kowabunga onto the job)
-You paid a hefty amount for a boost(Is it 25$?)
-You may end up actually not liking the job, so wasted money
Looking back, I would have boosted my a tank, in order to start playing the Frontline PvP games immediately. Then start from the beginning with a different class and get the Armory bonus
It's funny when I bring this up. the community, especially the one from FF14, gets so emotional about it. When you think about it, it's a nice business move from the devs. It's not like this was going on already. They just made it legal.
Armory bonus? What's that?
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
How long did you have to build a house if you just bought a piece of land?
45 days
When you buy a job skip to lvl 70, do you still have to do the 1-70 job quests?
no
What's the minimum lvl required to do the ananta beast tribe
Oh
If a dungeon’s gear level is synced to 490, do you get any benefit to having 520 or 530 gear?
no, and your materia won't be counted
player marker? no
Well, there is a marker that bosses do when you gotta stack for an stack attack, but you cannot deploy it yourself
oh
Sometimes some bosses put a crosshair on me. What is that?
for example monk lvl 60 quest boss put a crosshair on me
a crosshair? uhh... it isnt like the thing i put over there right?
nope
many different markers can be connected to different mechanics
like fps game cross hair
it could be that you're targetted with a line/circle aoe that you have to bait away from players/npcs, it could be you're getting an aoe that slowly follows you etc.
Are all the Firmament Fetes the same 3 games?
- get a marker, 2. see what happens 3. learn what the marker does for the future
the last one
That's a prey mark, it basically means the boss is targetting you for an attack, they are usually passable to another party member, but most of times you gotta keep it on yourself
They only mean that whatever next boss is doing, is gonna hit you
oh ok
Yes it’s always the same 5 events in a row each time it happens.
why is twilight apple so expensive?
do some jobs use their food ?

Omg. I just killed ifrit. And I was a warrior. The poor healer must be exhausted. Do I need to look for the walkthrough any stuff to be a tanker?
How do I unlock the moogle beast tribe quests
you don't need to look up any dungeons or fights ahead of time if they're just the normal duties that are part of the MSQ
even as a tank
The Moogle Beast Tribe unlock is a really long sidequest chain. I think it starts in Ishgard, I'll check
Isn't their a button to always face target
What's the best type of gear in the game?
Or do I have to constatly reposition my fucking camera
it's probably in character config > target
need to tick "automatically face target"
auto-face target is on by default iirc
Right click on Mouse, I believe
Dunno on Controller
A Pebble For Your Thoughts might be the first in the chain. It's in Churning Mists after you do the Moglin's Judgment MSQ
if you mean highest itemlevel then it's i530 from eden's promise savage and weekly capped tome cryptlurker gear upgraded with coins from nier raids
That quest alone is gonna lead me to the chain quests?
Mix between Savage gear / tome exchange gear / Relic (Final form)
better check bis for each class to find the right gear for each part.
Or do I have to do other quests
some of them are locked behind MSQ as well
I c
@green grail @green grail where do I go to enable
Sorry for double ping
I have that shit turned off
And it's so fucking annoying having to turn the camera
I'm MKB
is there any way to solo alexander prime savage with paladin?
If you mean A12S, it isnt soloable
how
Mechanic-wise, too punishing
i saw a video when someone soloed it
Did they solo the Savage?
Oh i saw it
Apparently it's hard enough
And timing is tight
Very... you'd have an easier time just getting a group for it

how many people?
As many as u can get, makes fight easier and shorter
anyway, is exarchic gear good for savage?
augmented should get you to 520 if I remember right
it's fine for entry
for tanks?
For any job
is the dyeable af gear from eureka a step before elemental armor? or can i, for example, get rdm dyeable af gear then elemental armor of fending?
Will augumented Crypt weapon ever be accessible without e11s?
yes, probably with the savage unlock
they'll add a weapon upgrade to the coin vendor
Is there a way for people to cut recast time down? In videos people seem to be able to cast dancer skills way faster than me
by having more Skill Speed/Spell Speed
Your Recast time is lowered by it, but Dancer optimally wants no Skill Speed
So skill speed lowers my cast time on dancer?
Can confirm. Its more important to line up your rotation cleanly than just doing your slightly faater
Recast
Weaponskills don't have cast times
Iai jutsu on samurai being the exception
Spell speed lowers cast time, but I dunno if it works on iaijutsu
It doesn't
Is the server tick 2 seconds?

So basically u have to wait 3 seconds between each skill
No
Dancer would be way faster
Server tick and global cooldown are separate things
Spell and skill speeds are, in effect, almost the same, but they work on different roles
Mages has spell speed
Everyone else have skill speed
Whether or not they even work on a class is also locked
Paladin has a few spells but giving it spell speed does nothing
But anyways
All your basic spells/attacks scale off of the global cooldown which is 2.5 secones
Since u guys have a higher dancer than me what is your recast time on your cascade or fountain for example
2.5
And I do savage raids as a dancer
Optimal dancer doesn't bother with skill speed
Dancer is slightly unusual in that they don't need to hit a very fast skill speed tier
most of their dmg isn't theirs anyway
Unlike... Basically every other physical jobs
Speed isn't everything
well, not for dancer at least
Other jobs need to speed up for various reasons
It just seems a little slow for how many instant skills it has, I wish it didn't have a 2.43 recast timer lol
The primary reason is the fit more skills in certain time frame
But at the same time it would be op
You get more stuff to juggle later on
Most of DNC's DPS comes from oGCDs
Ehhh
(And from your allies)
I won't say most
2.5 is objectively better
dancer with sks tends to throw your burst out of alignment, and crit just scales better because of your ogcd usage
It makes your standard/technical step cooldown line up cleaner
Im still missing like 6 skills since I'm only level 64
So I guess I'll get to 80 first before judging speed etc
Things get busier once you hit 72
then you can periodically trigger a full stack of procs and have 2 steps to worry about
wrong channel
speed is honestly not really a preferred choice for physical ranged, at least this expansion
Was it ever?
What does flourish do in terms of dps?
DNC is considerably simpler than any other DPS Job
Only brd is using skill speed this time round iirx
A lot
!action flourish
It's a lot of DPS, with the chance of proccing for more feathers
you don't take much more than a couple tiers
Btw, your flourish windmill and shower is good for single target too
!action fan dance
Despite being AOE skills
This. Also keep in mind that at 76 you get Sabre dance
Which under technical has a ton of usage
Flourish gives you all the skills that can proc a feather at once
that combined with flourish and you are one busy dancer
Those skills also do more damage than your basic skills so it's a nice dps increase
Also you try to go into technical with 2-3 feathers already afaik
yes banking feathers without overcapping is preferred
With the exception of the opener. But dude doesn't even have technical yet
I'm gonna try hit level 75 tomorrow since I finished base msq like 5 hrs ago I'm in heavensword now and I'm slowly doing it while I collect aether flows to fly in each zone
I'm just pointing out how busy with weaving the job can get
especially every technical window
Dude... No....
Grinding out past 70 with access to only hw content is gonna be painful
Don't do that to yourself
I haven't done anything apart from msq and daily roulettes
I mean with msq it's alright I guess?
there's no reason to force yourself to 80 early but if thats what you want to do thats fine
That's how I got to 64
just a bit of a waste in terms of xp
might be worth picking up another job to do msq with
Gonna assume you are on a preferred world with that kind of progress
Yes
I have rdm lvl 60 already
welp nvm then 😄
Won't be able to get used to dancer properly with msq syncing you down to 60 or less until you enter stormblood
I've heard conflicting comments regarding the solo PoTD runs; Do you have to start from floor 1 in order for the run to be eligible or can you just start from 51?
just to enter 100+ you can do 51, if you want the achievements you need to start at 1
is this game dolby atmos 5.1 supported
hey guys
I got 4 retainers which are DoL and they are all 80 with lvl 60/70 gear. I decided to finally upgrade it but not sure if I should make the green gear or the normal one
does it even make that much of a difference to gear em?
I had no idea about this
These are the highest stats you need to get the maximum rewards out of quick ventures, for example.
that saves me quite some coin
But yeah, gatherer retainers only care about gathering, and combat retainers only care about item level
Any stats besides those don’t influence how many things they can get back or what kind of stuff
Yep!
I'm going to buy some subscription time, does anyone want to use a recruitment code thing on me? Is that a thing that people do?

you have to get recruited before you buy sub too
People usually share codes there all the time
Cool, thank you!
It’s outdated gear so there’s not much of a reason to make it.
Can non-premium players duel others and if so, how?
afaik they can, but duels are only possible at a specific pvp place
I see
called Wolves' Den Pier
You need pvp unlocked
^
Do I need to reach a certain level for that?
I think you need to join a grand company
so not a certain lvl, rather a certain msq progress
(as always, story is everything, level is nothing)
Makes sense, makes sense
Its a bit further than just joining grand company
Which mount is this?
Because you can't participate in pvp without a job stone
ah yea, forgot about that part
Its the mount for collecting all 7 of the shb dragons
which drop from the shb extreme trials, if you didn't know
what are shb dragons?
mounts that drop from shadowbringers extreme trials
shb is just short for shadowbringers
They're the mounts earned from completing the shadowbringers extreme trials
Its rng to earn them from the chest that drops from finishing the fight
But also 99 totems to trade for a decent number of them
so to get the one in the picture you need to get 7 other mounts from shadowbringers extreme trial?
do you know the exact name of that mount?
it's called landerwaffe i think?
Yes 1 from each extreme trial
7 trials total
Anyone happen to know by heart how much allegory I need for a full set of accessories? (right side + belt)
thank you
I see, thx
uhh 375 x 5? i guess x 6 if you're buying 2 rings but you need one upgraded
Is the music playing at Limsa Lominsa's Aftcastle some kind of special easter music?
how fast is the very first chocobo mount? doesn't seem to be that fast. is it about the same as the "sprint" skill on?
Please turn on annotation to see which is which!
Run VS Ninja VS Swiftsong VS Ninja + SPRINT VS Swiftsong + SPRINT VS Sprint VS Chocobo
Also, sheathed/unsheathed ninja has no difference in speed.
Fist of Wind and Ninja has same speed: http://youtu.be/RfKqPFmuLbY

This video gives a speed comparison
Beat me to it
cool. thank you
Base mount speed is faster than sprinting, even if it doesn't appear to be. As you progress through the main quests, you'll periodically unlock mount speed increases for certain zones. Also all mounts are the same speed.
A special exception to this rule is cloud's motorbike which enjoys maximum movement speed regardless of maps
all mounts are tied to your speed upgrades, and flight is always considered to be at max speed
No, only the first upgrade.
You need the second upgrade for max speed.
I'm also not sure how it works in Bozja now, since Bozja does have a speed upgrade
How much does that cost, anyway?
25 clusters
Bozja mount speed
Is incredibly faster
Getting from skirmish to skirmish is much quicker
And 25 clusters is nothing
I doubt the mount speed will carry over to the next area but this is good For Now

yes, they’ll have to type it in manually afaik
What's better for ventures? Hunting, Field Exploration, or Quick Exploration?
ty
Depends on what you're trying to get out of it
Nothing specific atm
If you need exp or nothing in particular, quick ventures
Then you could just spam quick Ventures.
If you need a minion from a particular exploration, then obviously that
Just started getting venture coins from beast quests so finally starting to use them.
hi, what are all the nier coins for?
You can buy those for gc seals
@oak ice what do you mean?
Minion come from ventures?
Yes, some ventures have minions
ahhh
So that'd be quick Exploration?
You grab one of each raid coin, trade for a dusting or twine (no esters until 5.55)
The 18 hour ones have minions, but you'd have to google which ones
So yeah, if you don't look for anything, just do a quick one
Got ya. Thanks.
most well known one would be the fat cat from fishing ventures
Also the odder otter
Does reprisal work on everything?
anything that can be targeted and isn't invulnerable
yes
it works on all types of damage, unlike addle and feint
with the caveat of being a bit weaker
hi i keep on getting this error everytime i play, any fix? :x
i ran as admin both ffxiv exe but it didnt work :x
For the timeworn artifact farm, I have to use the required class?
no
You mean I can use SAM and farm for GNB one?
Yes
OK thanks
Believe you have set file access to read only or something in your documents folder
I forgot ny password who do I go to for help?
Use the SE Account password reset function
To further elaborate on what emu said some bosses spawn say, to take a recent example, giant icicles that can't be targeted and are their own entities theyll do an attack then despawn on their own. Using reprisal on the boss won't reduce the damage the icicles do.
quick question, playing with controller not sure if thatll change the explanation
lately ive noticed that something when i tap X button twice to select/lock on it isn't defaulting to enemies like it used to do. now it seems that like 50% of the time it selects a party member instead. I know i can obviously use the d-pad left/right to cycle through enemies
Got it. Thanks you 2! Any way to tell if mitigation from reprisL works?
Set your target filters.
but sometimes it was nice to just tap X twice and know youll choose the closest enemy to you. is that a setting or did i just get very lucky?
By default when sheathed it targets the closest whatever
....
Is this possible or nah? https://i.imgur.com/L3tsJ1p.png
No
i hadnt noticed that it happens only on the initial enemy
and ocne fight starts i can easily choose enemies
For flagged missions it requires all 3
Training to compensate for the lack of a stat or just sheer outleveling yeah
the haunting and vexatious memories do they drop from bozja fates?
no
weird
thank you
strictly Heavensward/Stormblood alliance raids and fates
well the step only needs to be done once
so maybe that's why
what essence do you recommend for delubrum as dps?
skirmisher
yup
oh!
If you swap and/or reinstance on a different job, it'll be removed
they are not super hard to get, just for the record

oh okay
well I'm doing it just for the relic so I don't want to waste more time in farming essences tho
its a mindless grind anyway so....
true
do i need to have the weapon equiped to get drops from fates?
but if you have the gil you could also just buy the fragments from the MB
no, just need the quest active
don't even need the same job
good point
thank you
is there a list with essence drops and how/where to find them?
so,if i want 60k mgp from fashion report,i can just get 80pts?
thats so interesting... wher did you find it? 😮
I have no idea, I saved that a while ago 😄
Does the market board show every weapon in the game for a job ? Even if people aren't selling it ?
Not every weapon, only actually tradeable ones
But it will also show those that currently don't have any listings, yes
well, it's a new job
will I access tome trading for ShB immediately after finishing 5.0?
the vendors in Eulmore should unlock then, yeah
Just for the record, only the fancy animated versions will appear on the MB
GNB does in fact have more primal weapons, just without fancy glow
is there a way i can clear out ALL the skills in my hotbar? I literally mean every single job and shortcuts in just one button
@glossy flare thanks again !
No. There is no such single button.
Thanks for answering, it's really hard changing UI this late T_T
The "quickest" way I can think of
Is to copy from an empty hotbar
Say your Conjurer 4th hotbar is empty, and you want to clear Paladin 1st hotbar
/hotbar copy cnj 4 pld 1
Yeah, I don't disagree that it's a bit cumbersome to rearrange hotbars if you do it later. I always try to set my hotbars up as soon as I hit level 30 (or pick up a job) so that most of the abilities aren't natively there.
I switched to PC about 6 months ago and have been putting off redoing the hotbars for jobs I don't play as much though.
I know I'll have to do it sometime before 6.0 comes out, but it's gonna be a pain.
Yeah, you could do that, but you'd have to do it for each bar individually. It wouldn't clear all of the bars at the same time.
Since the copy is 1:1
