void cargo
#

is it sufficient to be item lv 380 and take on HW extreme trials? Or should I wait until I'm lv 80?

glossy flare
#

That is more than sufficient to do them synced

#

However no one does them synced

wintry chasm
#

And yeah not enough to solo unsync

glossy flare
#

HW extremes are soloable at lvl 80 unsynced though

void cargo
boreal storm
#

Even Sephirot, With his color gimmick?

faint flare
#

Qued normal and get your level and gear brought down to that level

#

Yes seprirot has been soloed

#

Its rng as fuck

#

But doable

glossy flare
#

synced -> the duty synchronizes everyone's lvl (and sometimes ilvl) to the maximum allowed
unsynced -> you just keep whatever level you actually have

opaque fiber
#

In Eureka when using magiaauto as offensive is there a way to put at least 1 of the points into defense?

#

Like, put 2 on offense and 1 on defense and have it auto spin for whatever I'm against

slate arrow
#

generally it's not worth trying to split your magica outside of few exceptions

#

you're either doing all the damage or taking all the damage

opaque fiber
#

So as a DPS I just wanna slot all into the same and set auto as offensive?

slate arrow
#

slot all into the same and rotate as needed yeah

void cargo
opaque fiber
#

Alright thanks, also can I edit HUD to move that magia thing?

slate arrow
#

it's just a winodw

glossy flare
slate arrow
#

click and drag the top portion to move it around

opaque fiber
#

oh ok ty

glossy flare
#

It's just that once you unsync it at a high level why would you do it with a full party? Because you can do it alone too

slate arrow
#

so you can still bring up to 8 people into an instance

void cargo
slate arrow
#

Undersized Party

glossy flare
#

open the duty finder settings with the little cogwheel icon in the top left of the duty finder window

#

then turn on undersized party

void cargo
warm snow
#

It's been done at 460 iirc.

green grail
#

the higher ilvl the easier it'll be

void cargo
warm snow
#

Probably easier to make an unsync farm in pf once you hit 80

proud willow
#

unsync farms will probably take people lower than 80, I would hope

void cargo
proud willow
#

for a lv 60 fight

opaque fiber
#

After doing all eureka challenges in the log what's the quickest way to level?

faint flare
#

Fates

opaque fiber
#

What about power level?

opaque fiber
# faint flare Fates

I've done 2 currently and each rewards only 10k xp, this is super slow isnt it?

faint flare
#

They give more rewards when you're in their level range but still worth doing

opaque fiber
#

I was lvl 10 and they were lvl 11 and 12

slate arrow
#

Eureka in general is super slow

#

it's faster if you have a group to level with

#

but due to how EXP works with level differences its extremely hard

opaque fiber
#

If I only do weekly challenges how long is it for lvl 60?

jolly sorrel
#

I think the weekly challenge gives a % of your current level. Not sure, but you can do the maths knowing that

#

It's basically gonna give you the same amount of levels each week

opaque fiber
#

so 10 each week then

#

thats gonna take some time

jolly sorrel
#

Do note that more like than not, farming the crystals for the relic steps is going to take way longer than reaching the max level of a zone

#

Its often more efficient to just focus on getting your tokens and let the levels come on their own

manic rune
#

is there a macro command that states the current world, or do hunt scouters have different relay macros for each world thinkW

opaque fiber
faint flare
#

Probably different macros

opaque fiber
#

Also correcting myself, it's around 12 levels from challenges I think so that's 5 weeks for only challenges

faint flare
#

Gerolt does it in eureka, after you do a few of kriles objectives

#

You'll need the base lv70 job weapon as that upgrades into it

finite cedar
#

is the thornmarch Queue broken? I've waited for an hour and no one has joined

green grail
slate arrow
#

hard or extreme

finite cedar
#

or is there something else I'm doing wrong

#

hard

slate arrow
#

it's also like, 6:30 am on the pacific coast

#

the vast majority of the player base is offline

opaque fiber
finite cedar
#

est on my end

left cliff
#

Yep pst here about to go to work

faint flare
#

Yes, you'll need alot more for later upgrades

boreal storm
#

9:30, people would still be at work

slate arrow
finite cedar
#

never been like this before

#

but I should probably just wait

warm snow
finite cedar
#

hard

#

for msq

opaque fiber
#

Also if I require so much protean crystals what's the best way to get them

warm snow
opaque fiber
#

Oh there's a next one, how do I unlock that? Sorry for the amount of questions lol I only started Eureka today

green grail
#

there's four of them

#

get elemental levels and do the story quests that appear inside each zone

#

should be separate from the weapons iirc

strong saddle
#

What you spend fairy gauge with?

green grail
#

aetherpact and fey blessing

warm snow
#

Yeah, it needs more uses

lethal mist
#

In Nhama's Sweet Embrace I'm told to "Speak with the Dotharli youth and slay any enemies that appear.". I go to the red area but I don't get what to do for enemies to "appear?

open coral
#

"Speak to the Dotharli youth"

lethal mist
#

Yeah but I can't seem to find them

opaque fiber
#

And to confirm that I understand, SB relic is basically the lvl 70 job weapon upgraded in eureka?

lethal mist
#

There's a bunch of Matanga here.

open coral
#

Is there an elevation mark in the quest zone?

#

A gold arrow in the middle pointing up or down?

lethal mist
#

It tells me to go lower if I do fly up, so when inside the cave it's gone.

#

I'm not above or below it

open coral
#

Okay, so it's in the cave somewhere. Hang on, let me do a quick Google.

green grail
#

yeah just look up the quest on youtube if you cant find the objective

lethal mist
#

Oh wait found a smal lsack behind ar ock

#

It's cool, thanks anyway.

#

Was very hidden lol

open coral
#

There you go then. ๐Ÿ˜„

opaque fiber
#

Ok, last thing, what's the use of Anemos Crystals? tried googling but couldnt find

slate arrow
#

upgrading the base weapon to +1 and +2 before finally getting to Anemos

opaque fiber
#

Isn't that the use of Protean crystals?

worn flume
#

you exchange them for protean crystals iirc

opaque fiber
#

is there no other use of them?

green grail
#

one of them is used for buying gear and the other one is for upgrading it

#

if you want dyable level 70 artifact gear

#

it's uhhh yoshiglasses

#

5 meld slot artifact gear? or something?

warm snow
#

Protean is for weapons, anemos is for gear. Anemos can be exchanged for protean

buoyant sorrel
#

Some of the Allied Hunts you take have marks that only spawn in FATES right?

rose oak
#

so hozan for the doman reclamation is bugged?

magic light
#

what does e9s drop again?

strange coral
#

I doubt it. What's the problem? @rose oak

magic light
#

just accessories and belt, right?

rose oak
#

He is not there. And I have abandon the quest twice@strange coral

strange coral
#

Which quest?

rose oak
#

Precious Reclamation

strange coral
#

You're looking in Mor Dhona at 23, 6?

rose oak
#

yep nothing next to the cart

green grail
#

it is bugged

#

there's a lodestone post about it somewhere

green grail
rose oak
#

ty, is weird for some it works

strange coral
#

Hozan is involved in several quests and moves around a lot, so it could have something to do with the order you do the quests in. Or if you've gotten one of the other quests in progress too.

#

There's maintenance in a few days for hotfixes, so they might fix it then

green grail
#

they mention it's "under certain conditions" but yeah, probably better off to wait for a fix than try and fix your way around it lol

rose oak
#

how does this power level in foundation works for crafting

strange coral
#

The Ishgard Restoration Guide pinned in #doh-dol-lounge covers it in detail.

#

The short of it is: Gather mats from diadem, or buy them from the MB. Use them to craft collectibles. Turn in those collectibles in the firmament for tons of exp.

rose oak
#

yeah i guess it starts at lvl 20

#

need some levels on cul and alch

crystal adder
#

Hello, I saw meme on reddit about free trial, could someone confirm that free trial now includes heavensward dlc?

twilit arch
#

yes, that's been a thing for awhile

crystal adder
#

does it include new classes aswell? the heavensward ones

open coral
#

Yes.

twilit arch
#

yes it includes heavensward jobs

crystal adder
#

thanks!

open coral
#

DRK, AST, and MCH are included.

#

SAM, RDM, GNB, and DNC are not.

crystal adder
#

got it, thanks

patent shuttle
#

How do you change the hotkeys for your second hotbar? I wanna change the ctrl + 1-9 to mous 4 + 1-9 but everytime i try it just assigns one of the two buttons to the action

#

Can you like add two buttons at once?

slate arrow
#

the only valid modifiers are Shift, Control, and Alt

patent shuttle
#

Oh ok, thanks :)

open coral
#

You could assign control to your mouse 4 in your mouse settings, and do it that way.

#

But you'd still need to use the numbers in conjunction with that.

patent shuttle
#

Is that allowed? Or is it considered like cheating or something?

open coral
#

No? It's just key mapping.

slate arrow
#

"yes" but not really

#

its cheating like discord is considered cheating

#

just dont be an asshole about it

raven star
#

I am in a party with a ps4 player, we cannot see each others party messages. We are both in a call atm

open coral
#

Reassigning a keyboard key to a mouse button isn't cheating...

raven star
#

Anyone know what's up?

patent shuttle
open coral
#

Gaming mouse software isn't an "external program"

#

It's software for your hardware.

#

It's completely unrelated to the actual function of the game.

mental oracle
#

Is there a library somewhere I can read "essence & permutations"? Found a level 1 quest where I have to look for clues

#

did I get a treasure hunt quest?

open coral
#

What quest is it?

mental oracle
#

It's not a quest

#

Winebraud is the one that left the clues

open coral
#

I'm confused then.

mental oracle
#

got it on horizon

open coral
#

OH

mental oracle
#

I can read the book on the internet but I rather read it ingame

open coral
#

That is a quest.

mental oracle
#

oh

open coral
#

"The Greatest Story Never Told"

glossy bay
#

so ive finally reached level 37 on my black mage and dragoon, and im at level 27 main story quest

open coral
#

At least, I think that's the one you've found.

glossy bay
#

which one should i move forward with?

open coral
#

Whichever one you like better.

#

Or pick up a new job entirely.

#

Either one of your existing jobs is well ahead of the MSQ, and the MSQ should be your priority.

glossy bay
#

is it best to alternate between the two or stick to one until say level 45 then switch back

#

id rather stick to two than add one more

faint flare
#

Probably alternate so you dont drastically overlevel the story

#

And just keeps both jobs close to story level

open coral
#

@mental oracle You should be able to find the actual book in Ul'dah (x5, y4)

glossy bay
#

so its better to add one more job?

faint flare
#

If you're still mega overlevelled with 2 jobs

#

Preferred server buff makes it easy to keep 3 jobs up to date

glossy bay
#

which job do you guys recommend?

#

thats v fun

#

low level

faint flare
#

No job is enjoyable low level really

#

Cause you have 2 buttons

glossy bay
#

i meant

#

like up to level 40 etc

faint flare
#

Most jobs dont really get going until 50

glossy bay
#

and is best way to level from beginning, given MSG quest is much higher level, to do hunting logs?

faint flare
#

Hunting logs, fates to push yourself over then dungeon spam it up

glossy bay
#

ok

#

MSQ gives so much XP i'll prob hit 50 on both and still only be 35 on MSQ

#

weird how they made it like that

faint flare
#

Arr has wack pacing

#

There's one point the msw goes from 46 to 49

#

And is often when people go like "well it actually caught up"

glossy bay
#

haha

#

very far from that!

mental oracle
#

those coordinates point outside the map

open coral
#

Unfortunately those are the coordinates I got from the internet. I don't know where exactly the book might be if you can't locate that spot.

boreal storm
warm snow
#

Ul dah has multiple maps

devout jetty
#

So I'm working on customizing my (console) HUD layout and have a question regarding status effects: in every day experience how many positive /negative effects do I usually ever have on at one time? I have the enhancements /enfeeblements listed horizontally to the left of my cross hotbar and I'm worried if I have too many status effects it'll overlap with the crossbar. Is 10 status per type enough space?

mental oracle
torpid juniper
#

If I queue into a raid as a Bard, then go do a mission as a Lancer while waiting. Will I enter the raid as a Bard if I accept? Or a Lancer?

#

I want to know if I have to switch back to Bard before I accept.

strange coral
#

You won't be able to accept the queue while you are not bard if you queued as bard.

#

You have until the countdown timer is up to switch back

torpid juniper
#

Ok. Figured there's some safeguard in place but wanted to be safe

open coral
warm snow
#

45s iirc

proven plume
#

I just bought Final Fantasy XIV on steam (Standard Edition). Once I play through the standard edition, I need to buy an expansion pack to continue. Is this correct?

warm snow
#

Kinda

#

Standard covers up to the first expansion

#

So you'll cap at the end of the lv60 content

#

All jobs have a lv60 level cap too

proven plume
#

after I complete the base game and first expansion

#

what do I buy

warm snow
#

Shadowbringers includes the 2nd expansion and itself

#

So just that

#

You can't buy the 2nd expansion on its own any more

proven plume
#

oh

#

so I get third and second expansion

#

if i buy shadowbringer

rich bay
#

Yep!

twilit arch
#

Third and fourth

#

er

#

no you're right xD

warm snow
#

Shadowbringers is the third expansion so yeah

rich bay
#

Shadowbringers also has Stormblood.

proven plume
#

whats after shadowbringer

rich bay
warm snow
#

Endwalker is releasing some time in fall 2021

twilit arch
#

Endwalkers is going to be released in fall

torpid juniper
#

Is it necessary to gear up your retainers?

warm snow
#

Yes

twilit arch
#

sort of

proven plume
#

so after i finish second and third expansion I buy endwalker

warm snow
proven plume
#

oh

twilit arch
#

you can give your retainers cheap gear/whatever hand me downs you have

proven plume
#

so fourth expansion isnt out yet

warm snow
#

Ye

torpid juniper
#

Is there a level where it makes more sense? Mine are both around 10 but I'd like to use that gear on other classes I'm trying to level.

proven plume
#

how long is the standard game and first expansion in total

twilit arch
#

if you're going to level them via quick ventures then you can hold off on giving them gear tbh

torpid juniper
#

@proven plume got to be over 150 hours I'd guess

proven plume
#

wow

#

im so far behind

twilit arch
#

since gear just increases the chances of better loot but quick ventures are pretty rng

lone spruce
#

Is there a way to pull text logs from the game when you're on PC and you've already logged out?

#

Friend of mine needs to get some text logs on an interaction last night but didn't screenshot it

warm snow
high otter
#

Currently on a trial version. Can't find any people in Group Finder for the very first dungeon, Sastasha. Also can't solo it, while being lvl 23 (dungeon is lvl 15, if I understand correctly). Which basically means I can't progress story quest

warm snow
#

There's systems in place that keep most old content alive

torpid juniper
#

@proven plume to give you some idea I got almost 8 days of in game playtime and am still in between ARR and Heavensward. I've left the game on sometimes and dabbled a bit with other classes. So I didn't straight up mainline it but I've stood on course pretty much.

proven plume
#

is heavensward an expansion?

twilit arch
#

yes

warm snow
#

It's matchmaking

high otter
open coral
#

If you're dps, that's normal.

warm snow
#

That's surprising but not unheard of.

twilit arch
#

make sure you enable all languages in the duty finder to help with queue times

torpid juniper
#

@twilit arch I'm doing the quick explorations now. Should I keep them geared for better odds on good stuff? One brought back some good boots last time.

twilit arch
#

but as dps you're going to have to be waiting a bit

proven plume
#

heavensward is first expansion?

lone spruce
#

30 minutes is not bad

warm snow
#

All the squenix fans have fucked off to nier

lone spruce
#

I remember one time I waited over 2 hours

twilit arch
#

can realistically wait until you've capped your retainers before handing them gear

open coral
high otter
proven plume
#

alright I now know how the game expansions work and stuff. all i need to do is finish downloading the game and I will start playing

torpid juniper
#

@high otter in case you don't know, you can do whatever you want while you wait. You don't have to sit there.

high otter
torpid juniper
#

@proven plume I'm still new myself. Been playing for almost 3 months I think. Really enjoying it.

proven plume
#

just bought it today

#

had to limit download speed so its going to take a while

torpid juniper
#

While waiting, check online for classes to see how they play. New beginners videos and all that.

warm snow
proven plume
#

usually it would take much less than that but other people are using the internet rn

torpid juniper
#

I remember those days lol. Hated it.

proven plume
#

should i use this

torpid juniper
#

I'm sure it'll help. But honestly I've never used it.

#

Went online to YouTube and saw videos for all classes and recommendations for new players.

#

Saw some tips or things you wish you knew as a beginner videos and all that.

#

This was at work while doing nothing else so it was fine

proven plume
#

is final fantasy xiv the latest mmorpg?

warm snow
#

Lol no

strange coral
#

In the FF series, yes

warm snow
#

Well it's the newest final fantasy mmo

torpid juniper
#

It's older but incredible

proven plume
#

i meant to ask in the ff series lol

torpid juniper
#

Yeah. 11 was the last one.

proven plume
#

this will be my first mmorpg and final fantasy game

warm snow
#

Ff14 original released in 2010. But it was SOOOOO BAD they both in game and in real life nuked the whole game and rebuilt it from scratch

craggy coral
#

hey i just got ffxiv and i was wondering is there any resource which shows which jobs lead into which? im very indecisive and want to make sure i pick the job ill enjoy at endgame but im not sure what path to go down

warm snow
#

2.0 launched in 2013 and is the base game you're about to start

proven plume
#

so this is like a remake

warm snow
#

No

proven plume
#

of the cancelled one

torpid juniper
#

Was my first MMO

warm snow
#

It wasn't cancelled.

#

It was just shut down.

#

Was a full product for a while

proven plume
#

do the expansions have newer graphics than the base game 2013 one

#

since the

twilit arch
proven plume
#

expansions are newer

craggy coral
#

tytyty

open coral
#

The graphics are consistent, as the game is a "whole world".

warm snow
#

The base game and first expansion were restricted by the ps3

open coral
#

It's comprehensive, not partitioned.

warm snow
#

So they could get flashier and fancier from the second expansion on

proven plume
#

is dis game better than black desert online

open coral
#

Don't think of expansions as different games. The expansions add new content to the existing game.

warm snow
#

Subjective

open coral
#

YES

strange coral
warm snow
#

But in terms of subscription numbers and meta critic I believe so

open coral
#

BDO, by all accounts, was a good game in concept, but poorly executed.

craggy coral
#

oh wait for real

proven plume
#

i chose ff14

warm snow
#

Idk anything about bdo

proven plume
#

and i made the right decision i guess

open coral
# craggy coral tysm i did not know that!

Yes, if you don't like the job you pick at the start, as long as you've gotten to level 10 and completed the msq "Sylph Management" you can change to any other job you want.

warm snow
#

Ff14 is often called "the wow killer" subjective again but iirc it's the second most subscribed to mmorpg atm

proven plume
#

what does ff14 subscription do

twilit arch
#

you have to sub to play

open coral
#

Gives you access to the social aspects of the game that are restricted by the free trial.

twilit arch
#

no sub, no access to the game (once you've bought that is)

craggy coral
open coral
proven plume
#

do we need a subscription to access expansion

craggy coral
#

ok sweet i'll probably make a character who can heal or do magic or smth. ty!

#

wait 1 more question

open coral
#

You need a subscription to do content past the first expansion.

craggy coral
#

is there any benefit of having multiple characters then?

open coral
#

The Heavensward content is included in the trial.

agile laurel
twilit arch
#

for most people, no. alts are generally more work than worth

agile laurel
#

it's arguably more of a deficit

open coral
#

I have about 8 alts on 6 different servers, but that's just me

proven plume
#

wait so if i buy shadowbringer i also need to also buy the subscription

twilit arch
#

yes

open coral
#

Yes

craggy coral
twilit arch
#

this is a subscription based mmo

open coral
warm snow
agile laurel
#

and barely even that

twilit arch
#

the free trial caps at lvl 60, but you can continue playing for as long as you want. just can't progress msq after a certain point and you wont earn exp after 60

agile laurel
#

access to MSQ stops, and you can't level any more

craggy coral
#

ok cool

agile laurel
#

but you have zero time restriction beside that

craggy coral
#

thats good

agile laurel
#

well, can't level past 60

craggy coral
#

is every playthru the same zones if you make alts or can u do a different path

warm snow
#

Oh and ofc you've a bunch of other restrictions like a gil cap

agile laurel
#

if you really wanted your lack-of-money's worth, you could level every job to 60, with the exception of the SB/ShB dlc jobs

open coral
#

You could feasibly level all jobs to 60 on the free trial, then buy the full game and continue if you wanted to.

warm snow
craggy coral
#

huh ok

warm snow
#

But all converge and the story moves in one direction from there

craggy coral
#

makes sense

twilit arch
#

You can do the different 1-15 msq for the 3 starting cites a with alts, but after that the msq converges into one

open coral
#

And even then, the MSQ follows a similar path for all three starting cities.

warm snow
#

This is a final fantasy game first, mmo second

#

Main story is a large appeal and so that just makes it easier to write

craggy coral
#

is there pvp?

open coral
#

Basically, consider the first 10 levels of MSQ an extended tutorial on general game function and showing you what to expect.

#

There is, but it's not particularly good or popular.

boreal storm
open coral
#

And you can't do PvP on free trial

can we buy the shadowbringer expansion and subscription from steam?

twilit arch
#

yeah, you can buy the game thru steam

#

just going to note though, that if you do you are locked to steam for any and all future expansion purchases

#

so if you're someone who likes to buy things on sale may not be the best choice since steam doesnt go on sale very often

i use steam anyways because my parents dont let me use the cc but I can buy gift cards from a shop and use them

Once i hit 70 I'll lose the road to 70 buff, but if i swap to another job below 70, does it come back?

Great thanks, and is palace of the dead the best way to level alts?

quick question

#

what addon is this that the guy is using in the middle thats showing his skills?

#

the one in the center to be excact

twilit arch
#

its good if your queue times are 15+minutes, if dungeon queues are shorter than that you should be doing highest level dungeon

limber parcel
#

Ok thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

#

So if for example, maws of toto-rak is the highest i can queue for, just spam that until the next highest one unlocks?

twilit arch
#

yep

limber parcel
#

Ok thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

plain python
#

do I need specific excharic gear to upgrade it into augemented? Like head -> trade for elmoure something token -> augemented head. Or the elmoure something token is universal?

twilit arch
#

the exception is at 50/60/70, you wanna just queue for the 47/59/69 dungeons until you hit 51/61/71

limber parcel
#

okay i'll keep that in mind, thank you

warm snow
#

But you get differing amounts depending on the piece of gear

twilit arch
#

you need to exchange exarchic for their tokens. but you can exchange any of the exarchic pieces for it

#

weapons/chest/pants exchange for the most

I have a friend crafting the set for me. If it is universal, would it be faster/cost-saving for him to spam a specific piece?

Does anyone know how i can move the tank stance symbol thing? Can't find it in the hud settings and it keeps blocking my quests

What job

#

Oath gauge

#

Beast gauge

should just be a matter of clicking the hud element to move it

On the main hud layout window there are 4 different checkbox you can tick to select different categories. You might have one selected that doesn't include the gauge.

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)

Started with pugilist, at level 10 currently, not liking, what should I do? Start a new character or can I change my class in future?

faint flare
#

You can change your job

sour ruin
#

At 15 you can pick up another job, and you can have as many jobs as you want in this game and switch freely at any time you want

faint flare
#

The "so you wanna be a X" unlock the different base classes

#

Which you can take after doing your lv10 class quest

#

Lv15 is for other city travel

glossy flare
#

Depending on the class you want to switch to you may need to be able to get to another city though, just fyi

#

since the quest may be located there

#

Since you started as a Pugilist the only other classes available in Uldah are Gladiator and Thaumaturge

glad widget
#

So to join other class, I just need to jon their guild?

glossy flare
#

essentially, yeah

#

don't think of it as guilds in other games, it's just a story thing

faint flare
#

You can be every job in the game

glossy flare
#

You do the quest, it unlocks the class

#

then any time you switch your weapon to that of another class you become that class

#

So you can have all the classes on just one character

#

pretty neato

open ember
#

You'll be able to go to the other classes fairly early on so picking up other classes won't be difficult

glossy flare
#

I will recommend not judging classes on their very early performance though

#

Most of them don't really start to fill out until lvl 60 or so

#

But ultimately it's up to you

sour ruin
#

^ monk plays completely different in coop play since you can actually hit your positionals since someone else will be tanking the enemies

my terrible spelling I just woke up I'm sorry

glad widget
#

Also one more thing maybe I missed it because of so much information, is their crafting mechanism and can I craft potions? Or need to get them from quest or shop

faint flare
#

There's crafting and gathering jobs which is basically a different game

#

Healing pots really aren't thaaaaaaaat great

#

They usually just heal up 1 auto attacks worth of damage

leaden ginkgo
#

are the relic weapons worth chasing as a new player? i kind of want gae bolg to complete the dragoon look

open ember
#

Potions for healing can be useful in things like palace of the dead or heaven on high, or solo content but other than that... Ehhh not really

faint flare
#

Old relics are purely glamour

glossy flare
#

For glam? sure. For stats? old relics are worthless in that regard

#

FYI, relics are a huuuge grind

faint flare
#

Its something to do at cap for a time sink

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah i checked the wiki and there's like ten steps with multiple trials to do shockedhildy

glossy flare
#

If you have the time and don't mind going a little insane from grinding then go for it

faint flare
#

Doing them at level is asking your sanity to yeet itself out the window

glossy flare
#

But otherwise... eh

open ember
#

I would recommend doing msq and class quests above all

#

Relics can be done another time

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah i've kept up to date with my class quests, and i'm maybe 7-8 levels above my latest MSQ

open ember
#

The only relics that can be done at lv70 with some sanity is Eureka but the other ones will take ages

#

And obv the current relics

I joined a grand company, when do I get a mount?

!faq mounts

#
Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

Eureka does it's own leveling system with it's own exp

The basic is that you cast a short spell and then instant cast a spell that would normally have a long cast time

!trait dualcast

zinc orbitBOT

**Dualcast** : lvl 1 RDM

Grants the effect of Dualcast upon casting any spell with a cast time. While under the effect of Dualcast, your next spell will require no time to cast. Effect is canceled upon execution of any action other than an ability. Auto-attacks do not cancel effect.

maybe you have a pretty powerful cpu already

little swift
#

Do your challenge log

#

Join NM train spawns

hollow violet
#

oh hello challenge log! Thanks!

finite topaz
#

Crafting, even in early game, remains an all-or-nothing deal, because of cross-mats and the need to gather yourself in order to not spend much

#

And with the speed at which you level up, its better for it to be nothing, than all

little swift
#

Theres really no point early where you can be self sufficient

#

Its a long term investment

dusty quiver
#

i have a very serious question, why is the login process so hard? i mean why is there so many accounts to make and holes to jump through? i tried with a square enix account, didnt work, i tried linking it with a final fantasy account and then logging in, didnt work, i tried so many times with the password i used to make the new account and nothing, sorry but this is complete BS right now, all i want to do is try out the game and if i enjoy it then i will purchase the DLC's

yes, a mog station account

dusty quiver
#

not mogstation

remote lintel
#

no

mog station handles all ff14 account things

#

not the SE store

# little swift No

So its better to just have a mender repair your gear for you early game instead of doing it yourself?

dusty quiver
#

so why does it redirect me to square enix then

remote lintel

redirect you from where

dusty quiver
#

when i click on forgot password, it will send me an email to change my password from square enix, at no point in this process has mogstation come up ever

little swift
remote lintel

are you trying to do the trial on steam or windows

dusty quiver

windows

remote lintel

did you make a mog station account

dusty quiver

no because i was never told to when i made the account on the final fantasy page

remote lintel

"square enix account" means mogstation

#

did you make an account here?

dusty quiver

yes

remote lintel

then click the white sign in button and sign in

it literally says above it, square enix account

can you sign in or not

did you ever buy the game?

you probably tried logging in too many times and it triggered the system

ok dude

and now i am not eligible for a free trial, the fuck is going on?

either follow the instructions in red or use the link i gave you and just make a new account

when i signed up for the free trial i clicked the link in the launcher to make a mogstation account, it directed me to mogstation, i made an account and then i logged in

# remote lintel listen dude

no you listen, at no point in the registration process does it ask me or direct me to make a mog station account, i did fuck all besides follow the email instructions

this is the third time i'm telling you that square enix account means mogstation

#

this website leads to mogstation

dusty quiver
#

this is the 100th time i am telling you that it doesn= not say that

remote lintel
#

well thats what it is

dusty quiver
#

literally at the top, square enix account, proving my point

worthy bluff
#

Is this fine? ๐Ÿ˜›

faint flare
#

Yes

worthy bluff
#

Tyvm! โค๏ธ

faint flare
#

You literally follow your stat priorities

remote lintel
#

@dusty quiver it leads to mogstation, the square enix account is mogstation, this isnt debatable

dusty quiver
remote lintel
#

mogstation

raven sage
finite cedar
#

does anyone know how I get this set or any of the other ones kind?

raven sage
#

The square enix STORE account is different though

remote lintel
#

@finite cedar the lvl 80 rdm job gear

dusty quiver
finite cedar
#

okay thanks

raven sage
#

Because you're making a square enix account

finite cedar
#

so I just get it naturally through job quests

remote lintel
#

yes

dusty quiver
#

hurray we got there in the end

little swift
#

this isn't going anywhere

finite cedar
#

thats a lot easier then I thought

stiff skiff
#

I'm going to ask Cerberus the same question everytime in different words so I can annoy her ๐Ÿ˜

finite cedar
#

thanks

little swift
dusty quiver
#

im not arguing, im being trolled

little swift
#

you were given the advice necessary, and pushing back against it isn't necessary

#

no one is trolling you here, its a strictly moderated channel to prevent that

dusty quiver
#

ok if you say so

little swift
#

if you don't believe what you're being told thats on you

vast temple
#

people are trying to be helpful

faint flare
#

Just suck it up and make a Mogstation account

#

We all have one to play the game

#

You dont

#

So fill the gaps

dusty quiver
#

no one here has been helpful, if anything its deterred me, i had this issue years ago

fading aurora
#

@finite cedar I think when u unlock red mage they give u that set in one of the quests

#

Or to begin with

finite cedar
#

thanks

remote lintel
#

we tried to walk you through the process

finite cedar
#

just glad it isn't from a savage raid

remote lintel
#

if you dont want help then ok

agile laurel
#

maybe try not approaching people in a toxic manner and they'll be more conducive in return

remote lintel
#

you can do it yourself

stiff skiff
#

Uh oh here is the lady herself

agile laurel
#

but by all means, good luck

vast temple
#

I literally suggested contacting support because they are quite helpful

stiff skiff
#

Let's watch her in action

dusty quiver
vast temple
#

if that isn't helpful to you then you just want to complain

faint flare
#

Again

#

We all have a Mogstation account

#

You dont and are having issues

#

Fill the gaps

#

Suck it up

little swift
#

understand that while we know you're upset, we can only give you the advice that has worked for us

#

and if you're refusing to follow it there isn't much we can do

manic flare
#

we aren't officially associated with FFXIV or Square Enix in anyway, keep that in mind

little swift
#

also your account has a non-trial registered to the account

dusty quiver
little swift
#

so you cannot use it for the free trial anyways

raven sage
dusty quiver
remote lintel
#

use

#

!faq freetrial

remote lintel
#

i sent you

dusty quiver
#

I DID

#

omg

little swift
#

make a new account with a different email

remote lintel
#

^

dusty quiver
#

i have 3 times

manic flare
#

if you are having an issue not being answered by this channel, maybe contact SE support

fading aurora
#

@dusty quiver are u registering on the website?

little swift
#

the current email is for whatever reason already connected to a license of the game and cannot be used for the trial

fading aurora
#

Get the game from steam I had an error when I tried getting trial from website

dusty quiver
little swift
#

if you already own some part of the game

#

you cannot use that account for the free trial

fading aurora
#

Have u ever owned the game?

dusty quiver
remote lintel
#

so you did buy the game

fading aurora
#

Then u can't use trial

manic flare
#

then you cannot play the free trial

remote lintel
#

^

fading aurora
#

Once u buy the game it's gone

manic flare
#

unless you make a new account

dusty quiver
#

IM NOT USING THAT ACCOUNT FOR THE FREE TRIAL

little swift
#

make a new mogstation account to use the free trial

dusty quiver
#

i was asked if i have it on steam

#

i have tried 3 different accouints

remote lintel
#

and you cant log in to them?

timber rock
#

what does this number mean?

fading aurora
#

@dusty quiver if u have a folder in your documents with the previous download of the game it will probably pick it up and that's why it might not let u play on trial on another account

dusty quiver
#

no

little swift
faint flare
dusty quiver
manic flare
# dusty quiver i have tried 3 different accouints

sometimes i have had trouble creating a new/2nd account. I've found what helps is registering using my phone (using my cell network) rather than WiFi, because I suspect Square Enix probably clamps down on multiple accounts using the same IP address

fading aurora
#

If you go to documents/and then games / do you see a final fantasy folder there?

manic flare
#

as soon as I switched to a different network and I registered for a new account, I was able to use that new account

dusty quiver
#

oh wait

#

its in My Games

fading aurora
#

Ye that folder is the problem

#

Either rename it or remove it

dusty quiver
#

shall i delete it?

#

and then link my new account to mogstation right?

agile laurel
#

delete it, rename it, move it

#

either should work.

#

just make it not be recognised

split isle
#

Make an actual mogstation account

#

Not a square enix account

dusty quiver
#

will this work?

raven sage
#

If you're currently logged in you should be fine now

dusty quiver
#

omg im in, thank you all, removing that folder worked

raven sage
#

Pretty much if you can get into the mogstation then you can get into the game

hollow violet
#

how do chains work? Sometimes they pop up after a couple of kills, sometimes I can aoe a dozen of the same mob together and not get a chain

dusty quiver
#

i apologise if i was rude, i was just very frustrated, but seems like it will work now, thanks all for having patience with me

fading aurora
#

@dusty quiver what I did was add a number 2 to the other folder

#

And it fixed it

#

That's the same problem I had

#

Glad it worked

dusty quiver
#

ah that sucks, thanks again for the help

delicate field
#

what do the golden stars mean at the bottom right of the image?

remote lintel
#

general difficulty

faint flare
#

Aka basically nothing

oak ice
#

They're there to look cool

#

It's the same dungeons as always

wheat lark
#

So, I did the trial last year. I know I can't do the trial again with the same account. But could I delete my account and do the trial again that way?

delicate field
#

leveling has 1 star and nothing else has a star

agile laurel
manic flare
#

generaly level 50/60/70 dungeons have more mechanics than leveling dungeons

agile laurel
#

just obviously, as above, make sure you don't have FFXIV related files on your PC because those might cause issues

wheat lark
#

Okay, thank you!!!! I'm so excited!!!

#

My bf won't play if he had to use another email LOL

twilit arch
#

pretty sure they're suppose to be like "difficulty" indicator but its kind of whatever really

oak ice
#

Yeah, and expert has 3 stars, but those just get rotated down into 80 dungeons with no changes

#

guys, if i am playing the game as a trial account and decided that I like the game, do I buy the FF14 starter edition? or just buy a sub?

faint flare
#

Starter edition + Shadowbringers or complete edition to have everything

steady ermine
#

hello, anyone new to the game to quest together?, where can I ask this?

limpid tartan
devout crystal
faint flare
#

In the store from wherever you're buying it

devout crystal
#

i guess i am bit confused by the description. * The 30-day free play period included with purchase can only be applied once to each platform on a single service account. Moreover, this 30-day free play period is not applicable to platforms on which a license has already been registered.

faint flare
#

It means you can't buy starter edition twice on the same platform

devout crystal
#

so as a free trial account user, I still have to buy the start pack but it won't give me the first 30 days??

faint flare
#

To get subs

oak ice
#

When you buy the base game, I.E. ARR+HW, you get free 30 days

faint flare
#

You'll always get 30days sub whenever you register a new license of it

#

Regardless how old the account it

oak ice
#

But you can't buy it multiple times to keep stacking those 30 days

devout crystal
#

got it. thank you

faint flare
#

You can buy on pc, console and mac for 90 days

pale jungle
#

Hey guys, Whats the fastest way to get yellow script for gatherers ?

faint flare
#

But thats just a waste really

oak ice
#

And it's only the base game, you don't get any free days for buying Shadowbringers

devout crystal
#

so basically the game is $5.

faint flare
#

So get farming collectibles

stiff skiff
#

This game is mad expensive dawg I already spent about 500 on it

devout crystal
#

I after buying/upgrading my trial account by getting the Starter edition, I buy the Shadowbringers for the latest content right?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Alternatively you can just get complete edition

wintry chasm
#

or just buy the complete edition and get both at the same time

faint flare
#

Which is everything in one package

devout crystal
#

Shadowbringers give 30days also? or no?

faint flare
#

Same stuff

wintry chasm
#

no

faint flare
#

No

#

Expansions never give time

devout crystal
#

i see

pale jungle
#

Gotcha

stiff skiff
#

Do you guys think there will be a MMORPG FF where it's modern time around the late 1900's.

fading aurora
#

U get an extra 15 days or free trial if u get a character to 30 I believe

devout crystal
#

I wanted to buy the complete edition at first but I heard there is new expasion coming out. I am not sure if I can progress the game fast enough. Worst come worst, I don't even get to the shadowbringers content and the new expansion comes out. lol

faint flare
#

If you're on a preferred server

wintry chasm
faint flare
#

The expansion is in like 6 months

#

So

fading aurora
#

@devout crystal new expansion is ages away

stiff skiff
wintry chasm
#

Yeah you'll 100000% get to the point of getting blocked by not owning shadowbringers before EW (the new expansion) comes out Horan

devout crystal
#

oh...i see

fading aurora
#

Unless u Wana get all classes to 60 lol

#

Which will take a while

faint flare
#

Even then

wintry chasm
#

^

#

You'd still hit that point

faint flare
#

You'll probably be like 4 months away from the expansion

#

Levelling alts dont take long

#

Just tedious as fuck
