I mean it depends how hardcore he grinds

devout crystal
#

This game is old and tons of stuff to do. So I didn't think I can catch up fast enough.

stiff skiff
#

Nah most of y'all be OD'ing on this game homie no cap.

fading aurora
#

U hit the expansion zones pretty fast

#

Is it bad that I have 45 hours of play time in the last 4 days

wheat lark
#

I think you level very fast so you gotta do some alts if you want experience the game fully

devout crystal
#

but you don't save any money by buying the complete edition vs buying the base game and then buying the expansion sepeartely right?

faint flare
#

No

fading aurora
#

@wheat lark I switched classes like 5 times and they are all close to 60 or over

faint flare
#

Its the same price

wheat lark
#

Depends on you... Are you shamed about your time spent? Lol

stiff skiff
faint flare
#

Intentionally

wintry chasm
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

faint flare
#

Well sales may make the prices different

oak ice
#

If you find a deal on either combo, that will be cheaper

fading aurora
faint flare
#

But typically complete is the same pricr as bother

fading aurora
#

So should I be ashamed

devout crystal
#

I see. I will look around for any sales.

fading aurora
#

@devout crystal I'd say play trial untill u hit the end game of trial and by then you will probably get a discount on expansions and stuff

#

Cuz apparently it happens sometimes

#

When they make stuff cheaper

limpid tartan
#

I don't understand, why is the starter edition is on a price of 20$??
Isn't supposed to be a subscribe ?

remote lintel
#

you need to buy the game upfront

#

then sub

fading aurora
#

U also get a free 30 days sub for buying the base

faint flare
#

B2p with sub

devout crystal
#

I will buy the game the moment I hit level 60. lol

limpid tartan
fading aurora
#

@devout crystal which will be in like 2 days if u leveled like me

#

💀

devout crystal
#

😦

remote lintel
#

its common in like all other mmos

fading aurora
#

Dead*

remote lintel
#

its 60$ all together

fading aurora
#

Even world of Warcraft has the same thing

remote lintel
#

which is the price of a regular AAA game

limpid tartan
fading aurora
#

And their expansions are 60+ dollars sometimes

little swift
#

Call it what you want but this isn't the channel to discuss that

fading aurora
#

Free mmos are typically pay to win so u low money either way

limpid tartan
#

However, if i buy a key in a shop, does it work if i put it on Square enix shop?

fading aurora
#

Lose*

wintry chasm
limpid tartan
#

Like if i buy the starter edition on G2A, can't i put in on my SE acc ?

wintry chasm
#

Mogstation, the MMO account website and the SE store are separate

remote lintel
#

dont buy it from g2a

faint flare
#

Dont buy from g2a

limpid tartan
faint flare
#

Its a known key reseller

wintry chasm
#

But yes you just put it on Mogstation, all keys go on mogstation

#

Except IIRC PS4/5

#

That goes on PS store

twilit arch
#

only if you buy ps4 digitally

faint flare
#

Console auto does it

#

Digitally

twilit arch
#

if you buy physical copy you still would have to put a key into mogstation but regardless

#

everyone goes thru mogstation

limpid tartan
twilit arch
#

neither of those are authorized third party sellers

faint flare
#

Only buy from trusted thirs party sellers

twilit arch
#

and you're putting your account at risk by buying thru those sites

limpid tartan
faint flare
#

Newegg, greenmangaming

#

Amazon

remote lintel
#

steam, greenmangaming, newegg

twilit arch
#

yes

#

SE will ban your account if the key is found to be purchased with a stolen credit card

faint flare
#

If they find out your code was gotten via illegal means, like stolen card

#

Insta banned

remote lintel
#

if you buy from an unauthorized seller and your key was found to be stolen then you will be banned

faint flare
#

Immediately

limpid tartan
#

Oh

#

did not know, bought almost all my keys on them

#

but well now i know

faint flare
#

How do you think they can sell things cheaply and turn a profit

#

they dont use their own money

limpid tartan
#

Seems logic now i'm thinking about...
Anyway, looked on greenman, found the starter edition 10€ less than on the website, look much better

#

and more interesting aswell

nova umbra
#

why can't i see who has aggro? 😮

remote lintel
#

because theyre not appearing on your screen

nova umbra
#

like, i'm not looking at them, or because there's too many people and they don't exist for me

remote lintel
#

theres too many people

#

so theyr enot showing up

limpid tartan
#

btw once the game is bought, how do you repay every month ? You have to go on the website ? it's automatic ?

faint flare
#

Mogstation

#

Mogstation handles everything

remote lintel
#

you can make it automatic or not

nocturne void
#

Do people hate Dun Scaith? I have not done and have been trying for days to get a run in lol 1hr+ q times

#

I want to do it because I want to see all raids but it is it even worth it?

faint flare
#

Yes cause there's mechanics

#

And DF hates mechanics

boreal storm
#

It’s old content also it’s annoying at times

faint flare
#

And slower than other alliance raids so

limpid tartan
#

Aight

Compared to the free trial, instead of the PVP and the lvl limit, what does the starter edition offer else ?

tacit terrace
#

Hello. Doing my first savage run (E9S) and there seems to be a lot of focus on animations, but with everyone on my team's ability, it can be quite hard to see if she's glowing vs. the orbs, etc. Is there a camera angle trick or sth I might be missing?

faint flare
#

Turn them off

#

Party animation

#

Well set them to limited

open coral
nocturne void
faint flare
#

Starter edition

open coral
#

Oh, right. Starter.

tacit terrace
open coral
#

Everything I said except content past HW then.

faint flare
#

Starter edition just removes trial limitations

#

That's it

boreal storm
#

Starter edition doesn’t have Gil cap

faint flare
#

!faq freetrial

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

It removals all limitations listed above

limpid tartan
#

i see, is there a 2 authentication system ?

faint flare
#

That's it

#

Its optional security

abstract vapor
#

any way to remove this part of target line?

limpid tartan
#

where do i put it on ?

#

mogstation ?

#

What is the market board ? sorry for all the question i have

twilit arch
#

@abstract vapor no

faint flare
#

Market board is thr auction house

#

Basically

abstract vapor
#

thanks

limpid tartan
#

"Free Trial Players cannot create or join a Free Company during the Free Trial."

Oh well guess i go buy the starter right now. FFS...

boreal storm
#

You don’t need to be in an FC

#

It just helps

faint flare
#

They're a social thing

limpid tartan
#

i mean, it's better if i want to play with people

Espacially for roleplaying cough

faint flare
#

And whatever two buffs they're running

gusty hare
#

rewards for hunts are based on how much threat you did, right? so as a DRK should I spam Bloodspiller/normal rotation or keep spamming Unmend?

open coral
#

@abstract vapor You can't get rid of it, but you should be able to move it as a HUD element.

limpid tartan
#

and so, how do i enable the 2AF system ?

onyx anchor
#

Where do you buy Glamour Dispellers in Ul'dah?

remote lintel
#

from your gc headquarters

limpid tartan
#

well here we are, starter edition have been paid

neat stratus
#

I just did a dungeon, where I had to pay attention to different messages in the chat. Is there a better/easier way to get these messages? For mechanics

wintry chasm
#

Those messages would also just pop up on your screen, not just the chat box

limpid tartan
#

does it mean Heavensward is enable?

wintry chasm
#

Yes

boreal storm
#

HW is part of the starter edition

wintry chasm
limpid tartan
#

noice

(but i'm still crying for help about the A2F system 😭 )

onyx anchor
limpid tartan
#

Since i don't know the security of SE

#

don't want to take risk

boreal storm
fossil bloom
#

Is SMN slow at lower levels? My DOTs takes forever to hit enough damage. And Ruin is too weak... I only picked it because of the white magick. :/ Considering changing to Thaumaturgh. I'm 17.

wintry chasm
#

Roarich at Ruby Road Exchange also sells it apparently @onyx anchor

remote lintel
modest igloo
fossil bloom
#

Ty

remote lintel
#

dots tick every 3 secs

fossil bloom
#

For me is better to spam Ruin than casting 5secs of DOTS (during cooldowns).

remote lintel
#

also summoner doesnt use white magic

fossil bloom
remote lintel
#

they have a rezz but you dont use it unless its an absolute emergency

#

and their heal is garbage

#

theyre a dps

#

their job is to dps, not take care of the party

agile laurel
#

specific FF interactions aside, SMN does not use restorative magics

#

don't be deceived, it should never be used to heal anyone

remote lintel
#

if you want to use white magic then be a white mage

faint flare
#

Cause physick does fucking 200hp out of 10k at 80

modest igloo
#

100k you mean?

faint flare
#

Yeah that

#

Can't wait for the stat squish to see physick heal 10 hp

#

Gonna giggle

boreal storm
#

If you want to heal as a Summoner, Scholar exists

faint flare
#

Always have your dots up

civic flare
#

How long does it take to get to floor 50 potd so I can unlock hoh?

#

Should you solo it? Or does the duty finder work well for it?

modest igloo
#

a matched party does decently, although florr 41-50 is a bit of a struggle imo

faint flare
#

It shouldnt takr long unless you wipe cause people cant avoid obvious bad

candid ruin
#

lv 60 gear cost same amount of poetics as lv 50 gear?

candid ruin
#

@modest igloo thanks

vague cliff
#

hey guys, idk how or why but when i open the map in bozja i can't see any fates/CE's or even my own party members. idk if i accidentally pressed something...

open coral
#

Are you zoomed in too far, maybe?

wet cradle
#

are the macros saved in the cloud with the character settings?

remote lintel
#

you can make shared macros

wet cradle
#

nah I don't want to lose my personal ones

#

in case something happens

vague cliff
#

not zoomed in too far at all

open coral
#

I think they meant 2FA

rose oak
#

whoever though losing mettle was a good idea should be fired

heavy wadi
limpid tartan
uneven tendon
open coral
#

Even games like Everquest employ it.

hollow violet
#

In eureka specifically - are you penalized for partying with people that aren't the same level? What's the range of difference in party members before the penalty gets too severe?

faint flare
#

Imagine thinking mettle is important lol

manic flare
#

what does it do

open coral
#

It's like xp for Bozja

faint flare
#

Lets you rank up in bojza

manic flare
#

is there something like mettle for eureka?

faint flare
#

Its kinda piss easy to farm

rose oak
#

u need lvl 10 to keep going on relic quest so yes its imp

remote lintel
#

you cant even de-rank in bozja

#

and CLL gives you like 80k

stiff skiff
#

Anyone tryna craft me a black tanktop by any chance.

manic flare
#

what's the name of the item

stiff skiff
#

Hold on I can tell you rn.

#

Hempen Undershirt

#

@manic flare

remote lintel
#

just buy it

stiff skiff
#

I can't..

twilit arch
remote lintel
#

yes you can

twilit arch
#

can buy it from those 3 npcs

stiff skiff
#

Maisenta?

remote lintel
#

the npc

stiff skiff
#

Where on the map is that

#

And I can't dye.

remote lintel
#

they should be near the main aetheryte

twilit arch
#

where the red flag is

open coral
#

Have you done the quest to unlock dyeing?

stiff skiff
#

No, that's why I'm asking if someone can craft me a black tanktop.

#

Lmao.

open coral
#

What level are you?

remote lintel
#

just do the quest when you get to vesper bay

stiff skiff
#

Lvl 26

open coral
#

So go to Vesper Bay and do "Simply to Dye For"

twilit arch
#

Color your world*

remote lintel
#

if youre on free trial you should also rank up a crafter so you can craft the dye

unkempt shard
#

how long are dps queue times usually?

open coral
#

Oh, sorry, Simply to Dye For is a later one.

stiff skiff
#

Okay, will do. Y'all know any pants that look similar or just like Cloud Strife's pants from FFVII?

twilit arch
#

depending on the instance/time of day, usually 15-20mins~

remote lintel
#

!iglam strife bags

zinc orbitBOT
unkempt shard
#

damn, well guess I'm staying on tank and heal

remote lintel
#

unless you mean the other outfit he has

open coral
#

You can literally get Cloud's entire outfit for being subbed for... 6 months? I think?

remote lintel
#

hes got 2 outfits

stiff skiff
remote lintel
#

any shoes that cover the ankles

stiff skiff
#

Cloud has 2 outfits? Which 2..

remote lintel
#

he has the regular outfit in the game and he has the advent children outfit

stiff skiff
#

The one with the tanktop turtle neck??

remote lintel
#

thats his regular in game outfit

stiff skiff
#

That

remote lintel
#

yes

stiff skiff
#

I've never seen anyone with that outfit though.

remote lintel
#

because the cloud outfit in ff14 is this one

devout crystal
#

Wait! I can become Cloud?

remote lintel
#

yes

open ember
#

Veteran rewards

remote lintel
#

^

#

his sword isnt in the game

leaden ginkgo
#

Most active servers in Asia?

devout crystal
#

Can I become FF8 guy also?

wintry chasm
#

Squall's outfit is in-game too, gunblade too

open ember
#

Squall? Yes

devout crystal
#

Cool

remote lintel
#

its a veteran reward

stiff skiff
# remote lintel yes

Nah so you're telling me I can get that exact same outfit of cloud in the picture I just sent?

remote lintel
#

no

remote lintel
#

you can get the one i sent

#

which is called the strife attire

wintry chasm
#

Cerb was saying yes to Horan

devout crystal
#

Hey Chocobo fights with me?!? Holy cow! This is cool. He heals me. I am gonna 😂

stiff skiff
#

So the strife bag pants are only obtainable by being subbed to the game for a specific amount of time. Are there any other look alikes that I can get without doing anything crazy.

remote lintel
#

ehhhh

#

!aglam male hyur Skyworker's Bottoms

zinc orbitBOT
remote lintel
#

kinda but not really

#

also requires crafting and takes a bit to get

stiff skiff
#

Nvm then, it is what it is. Lol, bit of an off topic question but you seem to know every question in the world so here is one. Is FFXIII a story game or is that a MMORPG as well.

wintry chasm
#

Only FF MMOs are FFXIV and FFXI

hollow violet
#

story definitely

wintry chasm
#

Also story and MMORPG are not exclusive to each other

remote lintel
#

all final fantasy games are story based

#

well all the numbered ones at least

#

idk about the spinoffs

stiff skiff
#

FFXI?? I've never heard of FFXI

twilit arch
twilit arch
#

can you not please, thanks

stiff skiff
#

So uptight

twilit arch
#

Strictly moderated channel. No offtopic discussion allowed.

open coral
#

We have rules here, so yeah.

solid fog
#

wow... why ididnt get my fete gift i did 6 points on the last one and then switched to a GNB and received no gifts

twilit arch
#

cos you switched to gnb

faint flare
#

Because you swapped

wintry chasm
#

Those are crafter gatherer events

stiff skiff
#

Alright but it's a question like chill out it's not that deep, lmao. As easy as it is going to another channel as easy as it is letting a bit of an off topic question slide.

twilit arch
#

you need to remain as a crafter/gatherer to get the rewards when the fete ends

faint flare
#

You need to stay on a crafter/gatherer to get it

#

The npcs even say that

solid fog
#

i would call bs but alright

twilit arch
#

I let the question go dude, and then politely said that if you wanted to continue the conversation to do so in #video-games-general

solid fog
#

Do you think ishgard celebration will stop on 5.5 part 2 ?

open coral
#

No

twilit arch
#

doubtful

fallen axle
#

hey there demons, its me, ya boi

faint flare
#

Ishgard restoration is permanent

fallen axle
#

back with another question

solid fog
#

yeah but im talking about the celebration event

twilit arch
#

they might change up what kind of fetes are done

faint flare
#

Its not an event

open coral
#

It's not an "event"

stiff skiff
#

What channel do I go to, to ask about amaurot because I wanna learn more about it's lore.

solid fog
#

before there was no such fetes

#

that gave 100 scrips

open coral
remote lintel
#

just ask here and spoiler tag it

faint flare
#

There kinda was

#

The regular fates

twilit arch
#

there were when the stages completed

#

they actually gave way more scrips and exp

faint flare
#

The fetes are literally just so those restoration fates dont go away

twilit arch
#

But that's because they weren't nearly as common as the fetes

faint flare
#

Just correctly flavoured

fallen axle
#

So im currently doing the free trial on my PS5. My friend from gamestop managed to procure me a PS4 complete edition (bless him) even though the website didnt let me buy it. if i try to insert the disc to my PS5 will it just prompt me to link me SE account when i first log in to the game?

solid fog
#

So if i do all 12/12 of them every time until they remove fetes will i be able to get all scrip mounts ?

remote lintel
#

if you have the free trial on ps5 then your ps5 should already be linked to mogstation?

faint flare
#

They're not gonna remove fetes

fallen axle
faint flare
#

SE doesn't do time limited content (outside of seasonal events/temp cross overs)

fallen axle
#

and convert my game/account to a regular subscription one?

remote lintel
#

probably

solid fog
#

but they wil make a fete that doesnt say when its gonna pop

twilit arch
#

unlikely

solid fog
#

a random one idk

faint flare
#

They're not

#

Fetes are on a schedule

solid fog
#

Ok then i dont have to worry about the items on the vendor

#

cuz this is the only scrip farm i want and have and its easy

fallen axle
#

oaky cool ill guess ill see what happens once I pickup the game from him

spark cradle
#

for current relics is it only the 36x HW and SB 24 man spam you don't need to redo

faint flare
#

Yes, HW/SB 24mans aren't repeated

spark cradle
#

alright thanks

tacit venture
#

Hm, I finished the hatching tide event for the chicken suit at least but

#

I don't recall getting the housing items..uh how do you get those two ?

twilit arch
#

those are bought from the dreamer next to the quest npc

tacit venture
#

I think I gotta find nonotta but I don't think I've got a quest active for it

twilit arch
#

oh did you not do the second quest yet?

tacit venture
#

Yeah I don't htink I did

twilit arch
#

nonotta is at the botanist guild

onyx anchor
#

should i get the rest of the ironworks accessories or the armour?

tacit venture
#

ahh okay thank you !

twilit arch
#

should prioritize accessories since they are your lowest ilvl items

open coral
#

Replace your lowest ilevels first

faint flare
#

If your accessories are really behind yes

#

Which they typically are at 50

onyx anchor
#

aight i just need the ring now

lapis lagoon
#

Is there a hide headgear during cutscenes option?

glossy flare
#

there's a hide headgear period option

#

at the bottom of your character screen

#

the second icon from the left under your character

onyx anchor
#

i don't think you can hide it specifically in cutscenes

lapis lagoon
#

Got it thanks

leaden ginkgo
#

So which server has a lot of people day and night?

open coral
#

Any of them.

#

All of them.

glossy flare
#

there will be no server that has no off hours

#

just by how they are organized by real life regions

leaden ginkgo
#

Hmmmm

barren arrow
#

are there any allagan node types other than spherical, cube and egg shaped?

onyx anchor
#

Are Alliance Raids good for Poetics?

hollow violet
#

In eureka if there's an NM much higher level can I still tag it for rewards if a group is fighting?

faint flare
#

Yes...You'll get reduced rewards but still worth to take part

stiff skiff
#

I got told off for being a new player that knows about lore in one of the expansions, how is that okay? Smh.

remote lintel
#

because youre actively looking up spoilers for yourself and ruining the story

gritty oracle
#

Is it possible to marry in the free plan for the emote and hairstyle, immediately divorce, and much later marry someone else with a paid plan?

remote lintel
#

you both need to have the same plan

#

otherwise it takes the cheaper one

stiff skiff
#

Why do you care though? That's the thing, me learning about lore won't affect you.

gritty oracle
#

I just want the freebies, and later the option to get married again

#

Is it possible?

remote lintel
#

its not recommended for a new player to skip ahead in the story, because this is a heavily story based game

#

if you want to look up spoilers then sure go ahead and do it

twilit arch
remote lintel
#

but people in #archived-lore-spoilers generally dont like explaining every single thing that the main story literally tells you if you just played

gritty oracle
frozen wind
#

how do i abandon leve quests?

#

the option to abandon i sjust gone

twilit arch
#

if its the one given for the unlock quest you'll just have to do it

frozen wind
#

Im trying to as well but it wont even give me the option or requirements to do them either

twilit arch
#

oh are you looking at the "leves of x" quest?

remote lintel
#

are you in the green circle and initiating the leve?

frozen wind
gritty oracle
#

Did you accept an actual leve or a "Leves Of X" quest?

twilit arch
#

yeah...you're looking at the wrong thing

frozen wind
#

theres not even a initiation button

twilit arch
#

you ned to go to the bottom of the journal

remote lintel
#

the leve is separate

twilit arch
#

leves are in their own section in the journal

frozen wind
#

how do i remove them from the journal?

remote lintel
#

you can click abandon on the leve page iirc

frozen wind
#

because ive got so many new quests i cant accept any new ones with these obselote ones clogging it

remote lintel
#

you dont have to do the regular yellow side quests

#

theyre just for lore

frozen wind
#

I still cant find the abandon one on the leve page in my journal

remote lintel
#

can you screenshot

frozen wind
faint flare
#

Press retry then it should br abandonable

frozen wind
#

i cant even try to do them, nor can i even abandon them

#

yes but the other one from what i screenshotted earlier has no buttons

#

like this one for example

faint flare
#

Cause the leves of X aren't leves

remote lintel
#

because its tied to the leve

frozen wind
#

I talked to the leve giver and they didnt do anything either

faint flare
#

That's just the quest to tell you to go do that leve

#

Because they're asking you to complete that quest

#

Which tells you to do that leve

frozen wind
#

alright lets see if it works

hollow violet
#

if there's a eureka NM train should I join it even at low level? They give less xp than regular mobs and the 3-4 I've tried haven'tdropped the protean crystals

gritty oracle
#

I'd try to spawn low level NMs

cursive abyss
#

Does Peloton and Gear that increases your movement speed in city states stack?

You got the Strider boots Knightshade?

No

What's the deal with exiting perfect balance now? If I exit PB with no LF, prior to the rework I'd just double DK, but now double DK gets me nothing, wastes me a gcd and also i don't crit my next boot. what do I do now?

# obsidian patio

yes, that's what i thought - however, i'm confused why in practice this does not work

#

unstanced DK followed by another DK does not seem to grant LF

faint flare

Cause DK puts you into raptor

And DK needs opo opo

And one more question: How many logos actions can i do with just the astral array? Cause i'm sitting at 24/50

rustic hamlet

isnt there an area shout too?

twilit arch

shout is zone wide

rustic hamlet
#

oh ok thanks

#

i type /shout, it says invalid command

obsidian patio
#

/shout is weird and won’t let you do it as a default chat channel

faint flare
#

You can't permanently change to it

obsidian patio
#

So you need to preface all text with /shout or /sh

rustic hamlet
#

oh it's not available on the free trial WHAT

That too

It's like 25/50 and then you need umbral array?

obsidian patio
#

Feels like 30-40 talk radius

remote lintel
#

/say is people close to you

obsidian patio
#

You can make all the actions with just one array

#

The umbral array just let’s you make two actions at the same time, letting you use both together

Is there a doc with all the combinations?

Probably not? GNB doesn’t have great sustain

Wave cannon needs to be invulned and healed uo after

Sooo

#

Aurora isn't enough

rustic hamlet

Omg why is it so hard to target players on ps4/5 version of ff14

#

I might switch back to PC, this is unbareable

Left/right dpad and cycle...or virtual mouse

open coral
#

Use the dpad to target?

#

It's easy

#

dpad up/down will scroll through your party

leaden ginkgo
# faint flare Sooo

Ok but even if i superbolide , i won't be able to invuln it because the time its up for passes when wave cannon happens. While in wave cannon i cant press anything

#

Im guessing other tanks have longer invulns

faint flare
#

Paladin is the longest

#

Well

#

Techincally DRK if you count the first part of LD

rustic hamlet
faint flare
#

DRK/PLD arw both 10s of invuln

Plus the one hp superbolide wouldn't help even if i survive lmao

That's just how the trial is designed

open coral

I'm confused though. You have the full version on PC?

#

Then you shouldn't be able to do the free trial on the same account on PS4

rustic hamlet
#

i'm not on the same account

#

well i say ps4, but im on the ps5 version, i set up a new account so i could experience what the new ps5 version is like

That's... gonna cause problems if you want to get the full version and use your main account on PS4 later.

rustic hamlet
#

i don't care about my other account

open coral
#

Ah, okay

rustic hamlet
#

i know it seems baffling but i love to restart and it's been so long that I planned to, my old character is kinda tainted, without getting personal its one i used to go on with my ex/old friends Lol

#

so i'm fine with never touching it again

#

i might just go back to the PC version tbh

#

theres just no comparison, an mmo feels right on PC

carmine oyster
#

if you plan on getting a ps5, the ps5 version is great 🙂 i can run it better on my ps5 than on my pc

rustic hamlet
#

ahah thats why i'm trialing it, I got a PS5 a month ago and thought i'd give ff14 a go on it

#

but i'm struggling with the controls, i've never played an mmo on a console before

carmine oyster
#

hm yeah it is certainly getting used to it

rustic hamlet
#

and always played ff14 on pc so this is like, feels odd

#

i could see myself getting into it, but most social features are restricted on the trial, i could play up to the duty finder and join one that way

carmine oyster
#

you can buy both version, ps5 and pc, you can then play on both, thats what i did

rustic hamlet
#

i feel, if i find a good group on ps5, il lstay here

Its cross platform

So

rustic hamlet

dont you have to transfer your character to the PC version?

Materia & Melding FAQ

How do I unlock melding?

Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.

How can I get my gear melded?

To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.

Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?

Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.

Why is my meld giving +0 stats?

Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.

The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.

||Okay, what exactly is Hydaelyn? Why did she choose your PC? What is the recurring cutscene with the 6 crystals in a hexagon around you?

Is Eorzea the continent, or the planet, or what?

Did the Garleans summon Bahamut? If so, why?

When you kill Nidhogg the second time on the bridge, why do the PC and Alphinaud throw the eyes off the bridge as opposed to destroying them or keeping them for safe keeping? They get retrieved like two quests later and given to an antagonist.

What exactly is the goal of the Warriors of Darkness? To get more primals so they can kill them to.... Do what exactly? To save their planet, but how that accomplishes that isn't clear.

For that matter, why are primals a big deal to the Scions? What happens if you just let them be?||

remote lintel
#

hydaelyn is the goddess who gave you the blessing of light
eorzea is one of the 3 great continents
yes, the villain of 1.0 summoned bahamut because she was tempered, even though the other garleans were like "wow we shouldnt touch that"
because they didnt know better
||the warriors of darkness believed that by killing you, they could save their doomed world, because the ascians lied to them that it would cause a rejoining of worlds and work||
primals temper people, which is basically mind control, because primals require worshippers for power

Any good lore/msq summary all the way to the most recent update? I prefer reading over watching youtube.

tropic bear
#

Why did the ||warriors of darkness think that summoning primals would save their world||

remote lintel
#

because the ascians manipulated them into thinking it

shrewd owl
#

theres a document pinned in lore spoilers but it doesnt go up to shadowbringers iirc

faint flare
#

||They were lied to||

devout crystal
#

I see

tropic bear

||also they didnt think that summoning primals would save their world, they just needed to create chaos on our world, which is what primals would do|| @tropic bear

Thank you!

manic flare
#

dont thank me thank calisaie

#

or err, rommy

#

whoever wrote that thank them

tropic bear
#

But you get the crystals when you killed certain bosses in arr, she didn't give them to you

remote lintel
#

thats basically how she gave them to you

twilit arch
#

you're less being given them

open coral
#

The Crystals are like... essences of the things you're doing? idk how to really explain them well.

twilit arch
#

and more earning them yourself

open coral
#

They're kind of a legacy thing that shows up in Final Fantasy games in general.

tropic bear
#

Okay, and what exactly do the crystals mean or do for you?

remote lintel
#

they mean youre a warrior of light

twilit arch
#

shadowbringers does cover the crystals a bit more

open coral
#

They bolster your blessing of light

what msq are you on?

#

Basically, in Final Fantasy games, the Warriors of Light, the chosen warriors who are out to save the world, are given the Crystals of Light to show that they're heroes.

tropic bear
#

Also why did you just||chuck the eyes of Nidhogg off the bridge instead of destroying them or holding onto them||

open coral
#

The Crystals bestow blessings on them that make them harder to kill.

# tropic bear Why did the ||warriors of darkness think that summoning primals would save their...

It's a little twisted but essentially ||by forcing the primals to summon primals and ultimately creating a calamity/rejoining in doing so they would rejoin their world to ours and in doing so everyone on their world will die but their aether and souls will like, become one with ours. A fate better than total complete annihilation in all respect. Their plan was to never save their world in the traditional sense because they believed it was impossible, it was more to give it some sense of living on||

manic flare
remote lintel
#

because they thought it would be fine

#

but it obviously wasnt

wintry chasm
remote lintel
#

also if you did the keeper of the lake dungeon it tells you more about the crystals

shrewd owl
#

||yeah holding onto the eyes any longer would be detrimental and no one expected a bunch of ghostly beings to collect the eyes in an aether storm||

I do think at this point though, if you need more detailed answers its probably best to head to #archived-lore-spoilers

remote lintel
#

thats after keeper of the lake right

#

its gotta be

devout crystal
#

Who was a lady(?) at the cut scene of “the house that the death built”? I died to level 10 boss and kinda ditched that dungeon. But very curious.

faint flare
#

||Under the bridge was a extreme aether storm of ice and wind no human would survive, it was the safedt option||

viscid fossil
#

Is there a way to find out what hairstyle I have and do not have? Is the one with blue icon next to the hairstyle?

open coral

The lore for PotD starts there.

shrewd owl
#

||theyre eyeballs carrying a fuckton of aether in them who knows what would've happened if they attempted to stab the thing right then and there||

devout crystal
#

Oh cool! Thank you.

wintry chasm
faint flare
#

But its mentioned

#

Almost like a passing comment

twilit arch
#

@viscid fossil the aesthetican shows you which hairstyles that aren't default you currently own. they have like a little blue icon on them

#

!faq hairstyles

#

I think this might be the first time i've seen Vinyl Tails comment on lore

#

have to save this for posterity

twilit arch
#

has a list of available hairstyles so can check against this

tropic bear
remote lintel
#

no

faint flare
#

I know lore

open coral

#

To a point

remote lintel
#

||killing ascians requires specific things||

open coral
#

Play this game long enough, and everyone picks up a bit of lore here and there.

manic flare

#

Rommy's the real expert though.

leaden ginkgo
#

Btw, red mage. Fun? It's a balance of magic and melee right??

manic flare
#

didn't Rommy leave again?

twilit arch
#

most of the time you're going to be casting. melee is not very lengthy compared to casting magic

open coral
#

RDM is a caster that happens to have a melee combo

remote lintel
#

also in regards to the crystals you have, ||there is that one scene where midgardsormr stabs you and your crystals go gray, so he basically suppressed your blessing of light and you could barely hear hydaelyn, and then you needed to regain your crystals so you could hear her again||

viscid fossil
#

Thank you @twilit arch

manic flare
#

oh she is still here

manic flare
#

the melee combo is jssut for artistic style

leaden ginkgo
faint flare
#

Its their burst

#

Not artistic

crystal bluff
#

are there any optional dungeons between level 35 and 41 that I may have missed?

twilit arch
#

cutter's cry

#

#

qarn is 35-37, cutters is 38-40

crystal bluff
#

twilit arch
#

astral cobalt
#

faint flare
#

Sell them to the gold saucer

twilit arch
#

faint flare
#

Fpr mgp

astral cobalt
#

manic flare
#

Was there a level 49 dungeon that later got axed

devout crystal
#

I am lvl 40 as a marauder and can’t find the job quest. I guess it’s because I am not at level 30 msq yet?? I wanna be a warrior. 😦

twilit arch
#

sylph management is lvl 20 main scenario quest

#

that said, your warrior quest will be at the marauder's guild in limsa, so if you dont see it there then yeah you need to progress msq if you've completed all of your marauder quests

crystal bluff
#

are you sure you just didnt equip your job stone

faint flare
#

Your job quest shoves under the main scenario tracker

#

So
