oh okay then i need to find that job
Can't really consider that pro play, it's expected play
At least 1 cd for tbs
Depending on gear/health available
You only really need to stack cds if you're taking an obscene amount of damage from the tbs
In which case you would use invuln as an alternative
Can't wait to not learn macros :)
^ the important thing to realize is that every stacked CD loses in relative power. You want to spread them as much as you can while still surviving.
It won't be the case in normal dungeons
Its not loses power, but its not as strong as you would think since mitigation isn't additive
!faq pldmit
!faq pldmiti
The quest at class level 30 is what unlocks your job correct?
Defensive cds are multiplicative
Or is there multiple?
Theres an additional quest
Kk
The first 30 wraps up your class quest quest line
Do you two have the same avatar icon
Then the next one unlocks the job stone
Appreciate it
Oh ok
No, my PC is recently formatted and I'm a returning player so I'm installing the game fresh.

I should get a free upgrade to PS5 version of the game when it releases if I buy the PS4 version?
On the ps5 beta rn
Yeah ps4 and ps5 are the same account
when they officially release the PS5 version, yes.
So im needing to renew my subscription and i have a question.
Is there any drawbacks for the Entry subscription that only allows 1 char per world? Cause i only plan to play 1 character
no not really
So its basically the same as the other sub that costs $2 more for 8chars
could someone please tell me how i can reduce the size of the words "general, battle, event and log 4"?
Thank you
I think you can rename them in the options when you click the cog
is it not possible yet to make augemented cryptlurker weapon without savage?
no
i dont want to rename them @delicate field , i just want to reduce the size!
of the chat box labels
that font is bigger than the width of my hotbar x.x
I found a mentor wnd tried to send tell to her that i wanted to join a novice network, but I'm on free trial
Do free trial players get to chat in special or different chats or just general?
ehy guys how many books can u get from umbra savage every week? just one?
just one, yes
and how the chests work?
Ohh ok. What's the best profession for archer anyway? And how do i get a new class? I wanna try a spell casting class
so, you have 2 chests if nobody has cleared this week. that goes down to 1 if 1/8 people have cleared. you get none if either 4 or 5 have cleared, i forget which exactly
doh/dol relating to combat jobs is really just not a thing. and once you've done your level 10 class quest, you can take quests to unlock other classes
generally identified by 'so you want to be an xyz' 
so if u go in the right party u can alway get one chest?
no, you will be unable to roll if you have already obtained loot this week
be advised not all of the classes unlock in the same location
you may need to wait until you've been taken to the other cities to unlock some
that
nope
if i want to make a /micon of a mount, whats the macro?
alright thanks ill try that
does MSQ Roulette have a set reset time or just 12/24 hours from when u last did it?
4 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
9 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
2 days, 21 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
2 days, 21 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
15 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
9 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
2 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
2 days, 18 hours, 39 minutes, 22 seconds
ty
doesnt work, ill figure it out 😄
I don't play WHM much and all I know is Cure 1 is bad
Can anyone do a short ELI5 in case I need to explain it to new players here and there?
IIRC it should look like this
/micon "Mount Name" mount
Everybody likes it
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Guide:Shadowbringers_Progression_and_Level_Locked_Content
This page shows Hades Ex at iLvl 440 to 450, but the required iLvl for the trial is 450+. Is the guide simply wrong?
in gaming terms it means lots of good-excellent reviews
that's just how it organizes the content unlocked to be in ilvl ranges
so it's not just one giant category for level 80 content
Are Augmented Shire Gear best for level 60?
Yes.
Oh
Yeah, uhm, I meant more like, did they mislabel where Hadex Ex is supposed to be? Because you're not allowed access by the game in the guide's 'recommended iLvl range'.
Can't upgrade the weapons further?
No
the minimum item level needed for Hades Extreme is 450
Oh I see
the "Recommended iLevel ~441 to ~450)" is simply a way to categorise the content
Its a matter of heal potency really, less time healing and more time dps'ing
hades ex is min i450, so it fits within the range of 441 to 450

Ohhh wait, no I get it now. Alright, thanks.
Also the trait of Cure 1, being Freecure, teaches bad healing habits in spamming a lower potency heal to make a higher cost spell free, even though you will usually spend more MP trying to get this proc to happen in place of just using Cure 2 in the first place.
Compared to Cure 2, Cure 1 is just vastly less efficient in terms of resources spent for healing gained. Designwise the chance to proc a free Cure 2 by using Cure 1 is probably meant to encourage using it, however the chance is too low to make it viable
And even then you get a free version of cure 2, being Afflatus Solace, to use in place of cure 2.
generally, if you have access to cure 2, you shouldn't be using cure 1 unless you're out of mp
Is there a guide that shows content unlocks by patch instead of by iLvl? I think that'll make more sense to me.
How do I get GC seals to rank up to Second Lieutenant?
Ah, so basically the appeal/trap of cure 1 is the freecure and lower MP, but MP usually isn't a problem, and freecure is too RNG-dependant when you can just use cure 2 and not waste MP trying to proc
Multiple ways, though probably the most efficient one would be to turn in gear for seals at your GC
Yeah, even if the chance for freecure would be higher I'm not sure WHM should use cure
also lucid dreaming is available to all magic classes so it makes whm not have to care about mp very much at later levels
Because MP are just such a non issue for whm
I think I understand now, so I should be able to explain it beyond "people say not to lul"
Thanks for the help lads
The only way to realistically run out of mp is probably having to raise over and over again
And for AST they have so many oGCD healing spells that don't cost mp, that using either benefic 1 or 2 should be avoided
You might have to tell them to dps if they're cure 1 spamming
or having a tank whose gear is basically non-existent to the point that you'll have to spam cure 2 just to keep them alive for more than 2 seconds
Telling them to DPS is a lot simpler to explain the science behind, just gotta hope they're not stubborn lol
if you're not overhealing, mp is pretty easy to manage on whm
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/5fe000cd6b3 how to get this chest piece?
crafted
Craft
craft it or buy from the marketboard
can be bought on mb
maybe a dumb question but why wont the game let me cast this?
Or buy for really overpriced
replica allagan/dreadwyrm gear is in the 4th set of masterbooks
because as alchemist you probably can not equip whatever glamour plate you are trying to cast
Those are alc glamour items
Is that the level 70 yellow scrip stuff you're wearing?
then it's a lvl issue
you can't glam higher level stuff over lower level gear
why not just wear the set you're trying to glam?
Its Ilvl 1
also, you can take gear out of the dresser once you apply it to a plate
Ilvl1 level 80 locked
item level doesn't matter for glam
it's the gear level that matters
Equip level, equip class, race, and gender are the only restrictions
gear lvl 80 can't be applied to gear level 70
what a bizarre glamour item this is
alc locked, level 80 locked, ilvl one no point wearing it as a non glamour
it's dyeable
alas i will have to finish getting lvl 80 alc gear
yeah the costume sets are pretty whack. :\
Huh, this is new. What's this quest symbol do? https://i.imgur.com/3i2y4Hb.png
that's an NPC that gives you information on a certain subject
so not a quest really
Ill designed icon then 😦 but fair, thanks.
https://i.imgur.com/n9kRoML.gif
Are there any settings I can change to deal with this flickering effect?
get a higher resolution monitor
can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong ;D like i am already level 20 almost and still can't get in
its the rogue guild
Did you do your level 10 class quest
Understandable.
Hi guys i'm currently on free trial, and i've hit GIL cap , is there something i can buy and then resell when i'm subscribed to recover my gils or part of them??? or just some stuff it's useful to buy with gil and i can stockpile
Those things disappear on a better monitor? What kind of a resolution would I need?
I'd recommend the iron and copper ore from the blacksmith guild, if you ever gotten into crafting, they are needed in recipes all the way to lvl 70+
is it possible to change the world of one of our character ? or i have to grind an other character?
What you saw, Tael, is a visual artifact called temporal aliasing, iirc
It is the game drawing the edge of the stairs differently on a "low" resolution on each frame
they just become less noticable. It's the screen door effect because as it turns out a grid of pixels can't really draw lines at an angle, and FFXIV only has FXAA for native anti aliasing, iirc. You could use stuff like GSHADE for better anti aliasing but for the most part it's just tied to resolution
@limpid tartan character transfer
@dry flax buying a bunch of crafting materials is probably the best you can do
ok nvm apparently we have to pay to transfer a character on an other server, guess i'll just create a new one and climb
@warped nest @obsidian patio thank you very much guys :))))
There's also the Orchestrion rolls and minions you can buy from vendors in the main city-states
Iron and copper ore are probably the best crafting materials to buy
as they can sometimes sell on the marketboard higher than vendor price, but that carries risk
Since they are used in many recipes
Alright, thank you both.
then it's time to buy metal
maybe i will use to level a bit my armorer and smith and save some to get some gils back 😄
Items you can buy from NPC has horrible resell price
I recommend iron and copper ore because they remain useful for a long time
the minions and orchestrions are all the same in every city?
because i've already bought the ones in gridania
i have 3 retainers.. best class? and do i only do quick ventures?
the orchestrion rolls are city-specific, i think the minions are shared between the 3
@obsidian patio thank you :))
There's only 4 real choices, combat, fisher, botany, and miner. They all gather different things so it just depends on what you're looking for
All combat classes operate the same for retainers, so if you want a combat one choose a class that you have at level cap. Combat retainers get monster drops like skins, wool, and meat
As for gatherers, Fisher is generally only considered good if you do specific 16-hour ventures for the chance of rare minions/materials. Botanist/Miner have better overall value than Fisher.
Please take note that retainer cannot out level you in their class
Do realize that you can only level them as far as your own jobs, so if you're not into gathering yourself- your retainers ain't gonna do it for you.
oic thanks.. im not really looking for specifics.. jus more gil-selling stuff
can i access ninja only with one class like now i'm pugilist->rogue->ninja is that how it works ?
if you want the lazy RNG roulette route you can go with any of the 4 and only do quick ventures and hope you get the high-roll rewards like rare dyes
what did you select in frame rate? "none"?
Yeah, Cid
okay
If you want to play rogue and ninja as soon as possible
I would recommend picking classes that starts in limsa
Marauder or Arcanist
oh well somewhere i read that it's better to start with pugilist and then anyways i will travel to limsa
Pugilist starts in Uldah, you will still be able get rogue, just a tad later
Not that much later tbh, it's a 5 level difference
Framerate set to 60, since my monitor can't do more either
For future reference, anything you read, if it is older than 6 months, then it is probably out dated
oh okay ;D
Like a good 60-70 percent chance
Don't be shy to ask question here
We will hook you up with properly maintained and up to date information
i saw youtube that they were gonna get rid of Gil as currency?
That's BS
ya i thought so
uh how would that work?
lol
It works by people making click bait video
Then spent 10 minutes 1 second talking garbage
im sorry im so guillable >_<
You require more training, young warrior of light
That said, things do get change a lot, especially when we move into new expansion
Unless you directly see it from a Live Letter on the FFXIV forums/Lodestone announcement, it's 99% of the time clickbait
So if possible, keep you eye out on new info. Makes your transition into the new expansion less jarring
What Industrial said
oic lol thanks ❤️
Is it possible to reacquire the yo-kai watch outside of the event?
u can have mine >_>
It might come back anyway
Assuming you have the achievement for doing the yokai watch quest
that was what i was looking for, thanks

Does NIN have good combos in its rotations?
okay i'll try a diff question
what jobs have good, clear combos, like samurai?
in terms of 'based pretty much solely around them'?
yea
probably not ninja then
dragoon is 100% combo based
Samurai uses combos to generate symbols which do different iajitsus
Monk is a stance systsme which is free form combos
drg has a relatively large amount of micromanagement with life cycles
i'd say if you want a job based more primarily around combos, look at dnc or mch
Ninja's combos are basic and don't really do much besides damage and maintaining a buff
or mnk i suppose but prepare to do a little more homework in that case
yes, ninja's kit is pretty much half and half between basic filler combos and ninjutsu actions
oh, mch is combo-based?
yes
:D
i was gonna pick it up anyway when i unlock it, but now i want it even more
def gonna lvl that after sam
bard is the exception to ranged physical having combos
dnc has combos, mch has combos
well, combo singular in that case
DNC is kinda combo, kinda free form
Woudln't GNB count as well?
well that's a tank
That's a given because tank
wasn't considering that
gnb seems like a nice job, but it's a tank an' i can't tank
tanks are easy
you'd be surprised
if you've got experience in WoW or such, tanks in this game amount a lot more to diet dps but make sure you have aggro
i died 3 times on my first duty as a tank
All you do is turn tank stance on, press your cooldowns sometimes, and generally it's never your fault if you die assuming you don't stand in the bad
two of those times got everyone else killed
Dying is normal for the first time you do content
That's just the normal punishment for messing up mechanics in all content
i mean, that aside
mch is the more static combo based ranged physical
dnc leans more towards proc management and response
No one starts with the knowledge to play tanks, its all experience
brd is fully proc management and response
i've still got ages to go until i can unlock machinist tbh
Dancer's proc cannot happen if you don't press certain buttons
So you can anticipate and plan for their procs
Like what Emu said, Bard proc happens on their own (with your dot)
i started as archer, which was fun, but not a big fan of bard
well
i had all the enemies attention
and was using my moves (pretty badly)
and then my hp hit 0
that's normal to happen
Sometimes the healer just can't keep up
In that case when you respawn you pull less
The biggest tip I can give is: Use your defensive ability early when you have high health
The enemies would need to chew through more "health" to kill you
If your current defensive ability is about to fall off, use another one
Don't save them up for the boss. A few of them would be ready again during the time you walk to the boss room
And boss is actually not as deadly as group of enemies
^
Groups of mobs are often going to deal more damage than the boss, at least early on
Since a lot of their damage comes from avoidable AoEs and stuff
to get mount, you need to do certain mission or u just need to get certain level ?
!faq mount
'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.
oh thanks
quick check, is there any way of obtaining the base shb relic weapons, without glow, and dyeable?
Replicas are only the glowing variants
yeah that's what i thought
The base replica should be dyeable, IIRC
Dragonsong is also part of free trial?
what do you mean?
Yes, Heavensward is included in the free trial
if you're referring to the heavensward expansion, yes, it is on the free trial
The dragonsong quests
Yep, first replica looks dyeable to me
Of wait lol

Yes, they are
the free trial msq stops at Stormblood
Thought Heavensward ended with the previous quest haha
Technically yes
Nice
the final MSQ of the free trial is The Far Edge of Fate
which is the quest immediately prior to Stormblood
Oh ty
Hi all. If floors 51-60 in potd are best to level from 50-60, which floors are best in hoh to level from 60-70?
21-30
Thank you!!
Does ser yuhelmeric still exist in this quest? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuRCH9Zw3VQ reddit said this was in 1.0
Chocobos and Knights of Ishgard pimping it out at the Owl's Nest!!!!!! An awesome hamlet within the mountains of Coerthas!!! I love this place!!! ^___^ Kweh!
1.0 doesn't exist anymore right?
1.0 isn't playable anymore.
isnt yuhelmeric in dusk vigil
yes
1.0 is not completely a different game
I just killed him but couldn't read most of the notes on the ground because party wanted to go ahead...
After the Striking accessories, should I take Slaying?
striking is for samurai and monk
wait i dontt think striking accessories exist
do they?
I don't believe that there are striking accessories
striking accessories exist for some of 2.0
Ahh
but it all becomes slaying after a point
!item Darklight Band of Striking
!item Hero's Ring of Slaying
@onyx anchor #kupo-bot-spam
it was for demonstrating purposes so I think that's fine

I'm guessing that there hasn't been an option to hide au ra horns when wearing certain helmets? You guys reckon they'll add this feature in endwalker?
No and I'd say that is very unlikely
You literally can't remove the horns yeah
Yep
Idk if any game has an option toggle ear off
Highly doubt they'll ever add this
There's probably a mod to remove them on your end
I know there's mods for the scale colours
scaleless au ra mods
Can you invite a friend to your apartment?
so i tried to install Gshade for my new PC but Windows Defender won't let me do that. anyone who knows how i can bypass it?
I'm doing the quest Precious Reclamation, on the step where I have to talk to Hozen, however in the location it's telling me to go, there's no one there, vertically or otherwise, and I'm not sure how I'm meant to progress this quest
@devout jetty assuming public access to your house is on, yes
Just turn it off in settings or press more info > run anyways
Abandoned the quest and tried again, but the NPCs I should be seeing aren't spawning, sadly. No idea why though, I did all the prerequisite quests
so I wanna stream FFXIV, if I change my character name will it be enough so others won't know who I'm? like if they use the loadstone link to my character, will they find it ?
I don't think your lodestone link changes if you change your name, though I might be wrong
If I already payed to transfer to a server and I am not satisfied, can I revert my decision or I have to pay again to change servers?
Pay again
Sadly satisfaction wasn't what you paid for. You could try submitting a ticket and try to get in contact with their support, but more than likely you'll have to pay for another transfer
I see. Ah well.
pretty certain name changes are untrackable
or if they are, i certainly don't know of one
I heard that you can still find characters by the loadstone link or ID
whatever they are called :/
Possible, but I can't confirm iut
In E12S Shiva junction, are you always tethered to your own ice shard?
it’s random
:/ Thanks!
How can I find out how fast my GP regens?
Anyone from the Tomberry server?
5 per 3 seconds as a base, 6 with the level 70 trait, 7 with the level 80 trait
are nier coins guaranteed drop? And is it for each member or you have to bid?
guaranteed for each psure
Yep
Anyone who wanna call and help me out with some questions . . .?
Sure why not
is it possible to have a penalty just because you died too much like someone reports you because of that? I was trying my BLM lvl 80 rotation and dodging in Eden's Promise: Eternity. When healher had enough of me res and just said he was going to report me because i was bad blm and i was dying too much.
nah
threatening with a report for stupid shit like that is almost grounds for a report as is
i said literally nothing wrong to the healer even tho the tank was rude saying "don't res him"
i maybe said tank was toxic and i could 1v1 with my main
to the tank since he was saying to not res me
Biggest servers is North America is which one?
about equal tbh
square enix doesn’t publish server population numbers
hmmm... 🤔
I went on a Japanese server but it's dead and the language barrier doesn't help.
which data center?
please censor player names
Im in shinryu.
ah

I just found out today actual relic weapons (not replicas) can't go into the glam dresser. How do people manage their inventory assuming you went for the relic for every job from every expansion?
chocobo saddlebag, retainers
Got it thanks
I switched jobs from Dragoon to Samurai during the post-ARR patch content and really like it. Should I go back and buy the Ironworks gear for Samurai for going into Heavensward or is there something I'm missing?
Ironworks gear is better than anything you'll get until 64/65 msq
Buy the accessories, then the belt as the starter Sam gear is solid
Priority for replacing after that should be weapon, chest then whatever
Thank you so much for the detailed answer!
55 msq
is il mheg always this foggy
ah okay, thought it was just some unlucky weather
because it looks like a render distance of 2 in minecraft
where is the delivery moogle can't find it?
yes i know but i can't find in any city only the moogle for the tomestones
gotta give me a city here so I can point you though
nevermind i went to eulmore and found it
What is the emote to make your SMN book float in the air?
SQEX doesn't publish DC population numbers, but i think myself that Crystal is the biggest NA DC.
If you are looking for an English server on JP grounds, try Tonberry or Kujata.
ok. Thank you. 👍🏿
looks like this
Ah, that one.
It is the megaflare emote and that is linked to a physical buy of a statue.
Oh it's just before the explosions?
it's the same animation SMN does when summoning Bahamut btw
so that screenshot may be from that too
Also iirc megaflare isn't tied to a statue
gonna login and test rn
same for Phoenix btw
when you log out in another world, will you log in in your home or current?
Can I do the skill in camera mode?
You do not auto-revert to your home world
If you go into gpose right as the skill happens it will freeze you there
the "camera mode"
/gpose to pause and enter camera mode
not sure, but you can put gpose on a hotkey
it's under the extra tab in your skills
You can make a macro for it. Like doing the skill and then the button for /gpose
that too ^
Okay so @leaden ginkgo. Are you not on Primal, since you’re asking all these JP server questions?
Just curious
I have kind of an odd question. Can you make a macro to scroll in and out when you get on a mount?
I entered gpose and it keeps doing deathflare.. what..
yeah it will keep repeating the animation
but you can pause that
at any point you want
how
uh... been a while since I've done any gpose stuff tbh
it changes depending on keybind
Can I make it do the summon bahamut animation then?
check the gpose menu
sure, you can do any skill animation in gpose
it’s the button that says something like “pause all actions”
so... why does Thancred wear an eye patch? I know his right eye isn't blind, is it just to add that little sliver of edge to his getup?
Hmm how?
if you want to reset the animation, leave gpose and do /sit
Ive switch to a JP server now. Shinryu.
Spoilers for ARR: ||He almost lost the eye and had to actually wear an eye patch for a while, but just kept wearing it out of habit after. So kind of for the edge, yes? Gotta impress the ladies with your flair||
Is there a way to scroll through my enemy list by actually switching the targets? (As opposed to the default circle target that defaults back to the main target afterwards)
Is there a way to make my character turn arond in gpose?
some emotes and actions will auto turn your entire character when you use the face camera button
When did that happen??
At the end of ARR
sometimes you’ll need to leave gpose and preposition
Is it possible to float something just a riviera wall height off the floor, and having it stay there instead of clipping back to the floor? (The item in question is the corner counter)
every item has a different minimum float height, so you’ll just need to experiment with it
On the trust option why can't I register for the lv 75 dungeon
So can you add Japan to your role selection? Just so people can know from a glance
I need to do lv 75 dungeon but I only have dohn mheg
did you pick a correct light party composition? (tank, healer, 2 dps)
Ya
Are you doing it for the story or levelling?
what do you mean by lvl 75 dungeon
Are your trust NPCs lv75?
Nope
that doesn’t matter for msq
Don't tell me I've to level them up
They don't have to be levelled up for the story
Did you talk to the NPCs out front of the dungeon?
Are you using the Trust interface, or actually clicking on the NPCs at the entrance?
That would be it
Yep
Fuck
for using them in a trust for the story run, yeah
did you unlock the dungeon? because it should appear in your duty finder anyway
Ya I did
If you want to run dungeons via the trust interface you have to level your companions
It does
oh you’ve been trying to do it from the trust screen
Ya
When doing it for the story, you have to go through the NPCs
^
Fuck
Also on the PS4 controller the joycons + L1 is auto walk can it be turned off
I walked off alphascape stage thanks to it 
yes, check the keybinds menu
try System Configuration > Gamepad Settings > Button Configuration
Ah found it thanks
Fuck I can't turn it off
Yep there's no way to turn it off smh
I'll just deal with it
that's an alchemist thing, yeah
i use
/micon "Sprint"
/merror off
/ac "Mount Roulette"
/ac "Sprint"
Is there a way to hide the "Can't use glamour plate in this area" message?

Buy the outfit as a gift and then send the code to whoever you're gifting it to
If you mean from the store
yeah from the store
Ooh thanks @manic rune
Is there a way to do things for PotD that I can appraise bags en masse instead of one at a time?
So I finally unlocked the firmament, but I'm not seeing (and can very much be blind) seeing where to find out how I use it to level crafting. Potkin should show me what to turn in, right? But where do I get the materials?
any leveling tips besides roulettes?
Is there any way to get 150 eureka crystals fast?
Diadem, the person next to material turn-in guy takes you there
How to level class such as DRK efficiently to 50 ;-;?
Highest dungeon is the second best. Deep Dungeons like PotD are also somewhat efficient, but have very short queues so thats good. Beastmen quests give nice chunks too post-HW
Lots of FATEs. But it will not be fast.
thanks!!!
@vital ruin Thanks. 👍🏿
I'm tank so dungeons is probably my choice here
I need to go into the first dungeon, sastasha. but cant find a group (through dungeon-finder)
can i skip this somehow and yet proceed with the campaign?
Nope. But in two minutes the daily reset will happen, with many people queueing up for random dungeons.
You might find more luck then!
oh good to know, thank you 😄
@jolly sorrel point is I haven't started it at all yet and the only thing I ever want from it is 150 crystals. What would be the "fastest" way to achieve that? (I am aware it will take some time, I mean relatively)
Participating in Eureka FATEs is the most efficient way to get crystals.
👍
Where can I do choco breeding? I unlocked choco racing already, but I have little interest in it.
@gritty oracle you have to get a rank 40 chocobo racing bird in order to breed them
Body - Anemos Suspenders
Legs - Pagos Culottes @stiff skiff
Thank you, any way I can go about getting them?
both of them are on the marketboard, though they may be a bit expensive since not as many people are doing eureka these days
Any other way, I'm on the free trial 😔
nope
then you're sol because the content they're from is stormblood
I am a new player. Just installed the game. Came to know of servers and data centers. Is there any difference in choosing one outside of ping and time zone comfort?
Yes. It'll be slower than your zone.
JP has a completely different raiding attitude so if you want to raid on JP servers you should avoid em unless you accept the communities terms
otherwise, what we say here goes for NA and EU, most of the time
If you choose a data center that isn't near you prepare for a not as good experience than playing as the datacenter you're supposed to be on.
Most Indian player base I know is playing on lich (EU). I wanted to try Tonberry. Relatively less ping (110 vs 150 on lich) but worse time zone
There's a healthy english speaking community there so you should be mostly fine
I mean I don't know you do you. Whatever is the best quality.
the main thing to keep in mind is that tonberry while its got a big english speaking community
is still in a JP datacenter
also, there's virtually no difference between 100 to 200 MS
yes
Ahhh, the japanese got different worlds right?
Oh! So raids will be kind of worse(?) due to language barrier?
Like a whole different story or something.
no
I beg to differ. 100MS is somewhat playable, but f.e MCH/BRD is utterly impossible above 140-150.
"virtually"
JP side is not significantly different in terms of story than eu/na. my main point is that the fact that you'll have to deal with the language barrier since the majority of the datacenter speaks japanese
The only options I have are JP at around 110 and EU at 150
they also have a different way of doing things when it comes to raiding
How do I use the glam thing, I want to look at a certain earing but don't know the cmd.
so if you try to pug, it can be a bit frustrating
It's the emperors new earrings.
you'd see nothing
Right click -> try on, for checking. For permanently looking like that, you need to unlock glamours with a blue quest at vesper bay
@stiff skiff right click earring on your charcater page > cast glamour
emperor's new earring basically removes your earring
Oh, ok. I would much prefer if I could communicate with a bunch of them and maybe try and make new friends along the way
Emperor’s new X items are invisible
Instead of doing everything in the most optimal way possible

No, no I mean on the discord. I mean using the glam bot thing or whatever.
I want to see it on here, I don't have access to the earrings in game.
they're literally invisible
the command is !iglam but again those items are invisible so you'd see nothing
you're not gonna see anything lmao
Why are they earrings then?
so that people can hide their earrings/other items
for people who dont want accessories on their character model
but don't want to remove gear which gives stats
Hi, I just did a lvl 65 dungeon to get a bitter memories, is it by chance only?
literally 60? ok ok, i thought it was a range from 60 to 70, thanks for clarifying 😄
So that is what glamour is? So if I wanted to use a high quality item torso that is level 80 or something I can use that and then put a low level but good looking torso on my character so it hides the high quality torso?
yes, basically
I'm wearing level 80 gear but it appears like a level 70 dungeon gear
Lower level glam can go on higher level gear, but not the other way around
but is it a 100% drop if i do a lvl 60?
That's your character?
the fastest is antitower with blus
verhaps
I'm just tryna get nice quality clothing but I need to use the marketboard for it, that's some bullshit homie.
No? Pretty sure there’s lots of options for glam sub 61
Everything on the marketboard is obtainable for free if you work hard enough for it. (Some of them are gatekept by housing tho)
no, you can craft it
Nah man I'm tryna get this hold on let me get the image
but that involves leveling crafters
So I'd need to get the stormblood expansion?
no, just the base game for the marketboard
you'd have to buy it anyways to get stormblood
So there is absolutely no other way I can get it right?
nope :d
hello! im relatively new to the game and level 22. im trying to do this duty for tam tara deep croft but dont know how to find a team.
im on ps4
use the duty finder to queue up and be patient
im just stuck waiting for a long time
Main menu > duty finder > tam tara under Dungeons
I'm going to have to dump 12 dollars...
the price of glamour, alas...
pkay. i wasnt sure if lower levels were dead. if i just gotta wait thats fine!
okay*
People in this world that can't even afford clothes, or food and I'm here spending a crap ton of money on a video game. I ought to be ashamed of myself 🤦♂️
12 dollars is a lot?
nothing wrong with spending money for yourself
we've only been in a global pandemic for A YEAR AND A HALF
🙂
Nah man nah I'm spending thirty dollars on a bike rn like bruh
there are people infinitely richer than u that do not care about spending billions
u can treat yourself to 30$ my boy
True that
Got billionaires in this world, if you're a billionaire that's how you know you're a selfish fuck no cap. Sorry potty mouth
lmao
Yes
A lot.
Any swords that look like Clouds Buster sword, I'm tryna kick ass in style.
surprisingly, not really
not really
closest you could get would be the drk weapon from a level 76 dungeon
I know there's a mod on PC that lets you literally use it but it's just a model, not the actual sword with it's own stats.
all of them are kinda fantasy flavoured, no straight brick of steel on a stick
oh and if it is introduced it's gonna be a level 1 glamour
so it's not going to have it's own stats regardless
Hey Joey, if you’re trying to be a Cloud. 60 sub days gets you his AC outfit
Dude you're the ONLY one that told me specifically how many days I need to be subbed to get his outfit, finally it's about time jesus..
But I'm trying to get specifically his SOLDIER outfit, I know I can't have it exactly as what it is but I can make it look similar of course.
to be clear, it's total days, not continuous days
In the future, what can leftover nier coins be dumped into?
nothing, probably.
After grabbing all this glamor I think I have more than I'll ever exchange for crypt augments
What do you mean
You can sub for 30 days, drop your sub, and resub for 30 days, and it'll count at 60 days total subbed
also, Starter's 30 free play days do NOT count towards veteran rewards
What's the usual queue time for choco racing?
30 seconds or so, in my experience
not long, but most usually get auto filled by bots
I just finished first dragoon quest and it gave me new ability. But I can't find it in "actions and traits" and it's not on the quickbar
question how much of a difficulty jump is a hard version of a dungeon compared to normal?
It might have been a new trait? New actions should show up in your actions & traits menu
like Satasha or whatever versus Satasha(hard)
Zero at all
That is to say, (hard) just means they re-used and revamped the area for a new dungeon
of course it's going to be harder than Sastasha, but...
Just a higher level. They're completely different dungeons really. Just same "setting"
Description said smth like "attack the target by jumping on it and landing back when you started a jump", so I guess it's an attack ability
did you equip your soul stone
Oh yeah you're now a dragoon lol
so even the bosses/mechanics are the same?
things just hit harder/have more health?
I've been queued for 20 minutes as a healer for Baelsar's Wall, is this normal?
Nah basically everything changes in hard mode. It's like a completely new dungeon
it is a little early in the day
returning player here. whats the difficulty of high-end trials? same as alliance raids?
Nah high-end is like current extremes
high end content by definition is a challenge for organised groups
no they’re completely different dungeons that happen in the same area
different bosses, different mechanics
but why are they not filed under High-end Duty?
because Hard means so little it may as well be a mistranslation
it's not difficulty
meant to be cleared on first try?
it's just Different
high end duties are for the “current” high end content
"hard" apparently fell out of favour anyway, Shadowbringers didn't use it in anyway
oh so castrum marinum used to be under High-end Duty, but was last patch content. now its moved to High-end trials
cause its not recent
yes that’s right
i see thank you
high end stuff has its own tab because you can not really outgear it
"hard" was to differentiate it from the normal versions
while you can usually get a pretty decent advantage via ilvl in older content
since you have the first 3 trials which were 4 mans, then at max lvl you had those trials but as 8 mans
so they are "harder" then the first three trials
if two people fight the same monster, who gets xp?
both?
Hard trials are electric boogaloo 2 essentially
but there are no other 4 man trials, and so "hard" was dropped after heavensward basically since the ones in the story basically became normal mode
Whoever tags it first if they're not in a party together
Stormblood still had "hard" dungeons
I was talking specifically about trials
fair enough
Assuming they don't contribute equally
Hey guys. I've never really bothered leveling my miner but over the course of months of using it, it has reached level 75 and I want to power level the last 5 levels. What would be the fastest way to do so? I have just started Shadowbringers so don't have everything available yet.
not dungeons, even so the tag for hard mode dungeons is still the same idea
its just there to differentiate it from the normal version
Unlock levequests in shb @slender sphinx and do those
Someone told me just circling diadem is decent xp, would this work too? @little swift
how come king mog/levi/ramuh/shiva are labelled as hard without a normal version?
Yes thats fine but its not as fast
Doing more story to unlock levequests in SHB is not an option for me atm is all
Because ARR was awkward time, and again it was just there to differentiate it from 4 man trials
Include daily gc turn ins and custom deliveries as well if you can
even though those ones don't have a 4 man trial version
In your experiences is it worth creating a free company focused on daily Midnight players? Or just joining whats around? Checking whats active tonight then will decide whether to create.
Your free company is what works for you
fair enough then, they just seem awkward retrospectively
Theres no wrong answer for it
a lot of ARR and HW was them figuring out shit
is the Marketboard the same no matter what world server you're on?
I want one that is at least 5 members online. Not seen one pop up that late at Limsa when examining.
So when you look back at a lot of those things, its really awkward and weird. just gets ironed out as things got further along
No, each servers marketboard is different
ok ty
Ah thank you!
you’ll have more luck with really big fcs that have hundreds of members but at the same time you’ll find it harder to find that close-knit community that smaller fcs have
I'm currently reading a guide on choco breeding. Can I have multiple retired chocobos and breed them together, or can I only breed with NPC chocos?
You can breed your own retired chocobo 🙂
It is much more reliable, but at the same time exponentially much more work.
If you're going down that rabbit hole, I recommend you wait until at least grade 5 or 6 before doing so
tyty!
!faq mount
#kupo-bot-spam
Oh right if i'm doing the diadem method, do I just go for the mining xp or is there a place I can turn in the stuff I collect for more xp?
hey wait I still need that haha
@little swift
so I wanna Stream, will changing my name change the loadstone character link too? cuz I hear people can still find your character by that link
Never really used diadem before
okay I bought the issuance thing
@oak moth #kupo-bot-spam
When you gather stuff in the diadem, you can get them "appraised" back in Foundation for more exp, I do believe.
Someone explain why I keep getting syrus castle
I think it's been a whole fucking week only syrus castle
u mean tower?
cuz ppl want quick run
Over and over
Ok, thanks Tael.
Ilvl cheese for queueing
because people are assholes and the roulette goes for the lowest common denominator
so they equip shitty gear to get crystal tower raids
Bro how am I supposed to learn other alliance raids if I keep getting the same boring shit
and free trial players
By queuing for them manually?
I think I forgot all other mechanics from other alliance raids
And mostly this
Syrcus tower is the fastest way to get memories for the new relic first step if you dont' want to do castrum
I don't wanna queue for an hour
Just for a raid
And the fact that Crystal Tower is mandatory.
A majority of the player base only has the ARR raids unlocked
that's a you problem them
I wanna use my dr exp
We don't control duty finder
But this syrus castle always man
Duty finder is simply doing its job

Fml
I fully agree that it is bad design on SEs part, but your question is answered in full 🙂
You agreed to it's terms the moment you queued for the roulette which queues you for any alliance raid unlocked :p
Duty roulette rewards scale to your level anyways
I get syrus as a lv 70 i400
So its not like you get less for queuing a lower level
You're also not the only one queuing for the roulette
I think I saw a void ark 2 weeks back
ITS NOT YOU THAT IS LOW ILVL IN THE QUEUE
Roulette gives you a random alliance raid, you got one of the most popular alliance raids at the moment 😂
if you do then don't complain here
No
Alright
Question: while i know ownership is its own thing cross platform, is it possible to start the free trial on ps4 and transfer/share that character data to the full pc version?
When's the next fete day?
If it was yesterday then maybe tomorrow is a safe guess
Many people deliberately lower their iLvls so only Syrcus is an option for them. Because a lot of people can only do Syrcus, the roulette tries to match as much people on Syrcus as it possibly can, that's why it appears so often.
ty!
for housing, can tenants be on other servers?
Nope
Can always hop into the firmament to see it should have a timer @gritty oracle
Only the owner or a tenant can decorate
with their own furniture or like
With furniture from their inventory or the storeroom
you can't really access other people's inventories
heya im new but can someone help me out
With?
im trying to change my sqaure enix account but it wont let me change it
What error do you get?
Where are the serpent stables at?
If you're on PS4 or Steam, your SE account is permanently tied to your PSN and Steam account respectively.
You must contact SE support but I don't believe you can change it once it's connected.
nvm
So say my girlfriend does the free trial on ps4 but wants to buy the full game on pc: theres no simple process for having her character be shared/transferred?
No you just buy and register the pc license to her account
no, that works
It works fine
just buy and redeem the key on the mogstation account you want the full game on
its just if you play on PSN, you must also sign in on PSN
Ok. Does she need PS+ too for it or is it exempted?
exempted
dont need ps+ for ff14
1: don't make joke questions
I'm serious
2: probably zenos or fanadiel
because you can't go to either NPC in any of the zones
Not in the world
-_-
Plus Miuna already answered you
Who is the most evil npc that I CAN go to
Your best bet would be Rowena
oh okay
I know why you're trying but just do the damn msq
Ty for the help guys. Our secondary gaming pc has been out of commission so the ps4 will make a fine substitute.

Question! I am at Ishgard and tryin to level a crafting prof. It's askling for grade 4 skybuilders plywood, which I have made but it's saying that I don't have any.
Please stop shitposting. The MSQ tells you what objectives you must do to advance.
Did you meet the minimum Collectibility requirement?
Ooh rip
Ishgard takes items under the Collectibility system, which is basically just your quality bar.
Make sure to use your Quality up skills before you complete the synthesis.
ahh okay! That makes more sense. Th ank oyu! 🙂
Can you teleport to friends...?
In most cases, no.
There is an item which can warp you to the aetheryte nearest to your friend from RAF
...?
otherwise, the closest item is the wedding ring which allows you to warp directly to your partner once every hour or so?
Recruit a friend

I want to do a "large-scale levequest". It is requesting three items. Can I do multiple turn ins? Or does the quest end as soon as I turn in the three items?
Why does restrict leveling roulette not work for me? I am lvl 53, got the ilvl while the other one is lvl 80 and yet we get a lvl 27 dungeon
I made sure to tick it before joining
must be a full party
Only works with a full premade queue
Ok...
That is not a charity leve
Oh, I see. So it has to be the old woman or the sewing pictures.
is there any way to share storage other than fc chest
no

@slim remnant yes?
:p
Did the quality of the Omega Figure from the SE Store get "fixed"?
I saw the first production and it didn't look that good
Sounds like a question for SE Customer Support :p
Maybe someone had experience 😅
short of kicking a member out, is there a way to get their choco out of stable so we can move it pls?
is there no way to increase mob loot drops? other than mug
No
Is there any downside to the wyrm armor that i receive from the lvl 50 dragoon quest? Just got all this ilvl 90 gear for free so i assume there’s a catch

Gotcha thanks
