wheat plume
#

so tankbusters always use castbar?

finite topaz
#

basically, if boss is casting something, use TBN just to be safe

#

yeah

#

raidwides also always use castbars

#

(Some are delayed mind you, the cast will go off but then the raidwide will happen a lil bit later, like in Mem Misera)

wheat plume
#

ok, so if name is a big hit, it COULD be tankbuster, if name says something of wide reach, it COULD be raidwide

wheat plume
#

haha, nice, I didn't know that

finite topaz
#

Dont be ashamed if its yer first time and you dont know the name of attacks

#

we've all been there

#

Just do yer best, and people are sure to take notice

wheat plume
#

yeah, I wanna learn things that all fights have in common

light monolith
#

Uhm guys, cosidering the custom deliveries are limited to 12 a week, should you focus 6 on one region only?

#

or should I use it on shadowbringer+ stormblood

wheat plume
glossy flare
#

But that also means you can do absolutely nothing to mitigate them as a tank so whatever

#

Healer's responsibility then 😅

wheat plume
#

haha, thxs

obsidian patio
#

@light monolith in terms of best scrips only focus on the 2 newest ones, both of which are part of the Firmament story

light monolith
#

so not the one in eulmore?

light monolith
#

@obsidian patio is that in a patch 5.1+ mainquest?

obsidian patio
#

IIRC no, you just need to unlock the firmament in ishgard and do the quests in there

honest anvil
#

They do relatively the same dps and both are viable in end game raids

light monolith
#

@obsidian patio eulmore is fine to do right?

obsidian patio
#

yeah

vital ruin
#

Where's the inn in ishgard

finite topaz
vital ruin
#

o

light monolith
#

@obsidian patio Also quick question, Yellow scrips gatherer, what do you use those for since it's gear is pretty much meh.

obsidian patio
#

materia for selling/melding

OH Gatherers, my bad there mate

real violet
#

Hello everybody, I have been experiencing an in-game issue with increasing frequency this past week and I wanted to ask where the best place to post it might be. Do you think I should try to crowdsource it via r/ffxiv or just make a post on the official forums? (*' - ')/

jolly sorrel
#

You also use yellow gathering scrips for the new gathering books, if you dont have them yet.

#

And be sure to stock up on like 1k cordials or something

wintry chasm
fringe bone
#

Is there any differnce when it comes to the cat race, seekers of the sun and keepers of the moon or just lore?

fast talon
#

lore

proud willow
#

all racial differences are effectively just lore

fringe bone
#

gotcha

#

no other psychical features?

#

like with mid and highlanders

fast talon
#

im not sure about the miqotes admittedly

lethal mist
#

I've been told to spend COmpany Seals on tickets to teleport. Thing is, I assume it's those "Twin Adder Aetheryte Ticket" but they're only for First Lieutenant and up. How do I reach that?

real violet
#

It was a technical issue involving the game crashing so I wasn't sure if it was the right spot.

proud willow
#

there are some differences between appearances

fast talon
#

i know between the two roe races some have access to certain hairstyles that the other doesnt

fringe bone
#

Like?

proud willow
#

for miqote, I think one of the subraces gets cat eyes and the other gets fangs

fringe bone
#

Fangs?

#

as in on the hand?

proud willow
#

no, their teeth

fast talon
#

fangs are in the mouth

fringe bone
#

Oh

jolly sorrel
#

In my humble opinion, just ask here, reddit and the main forums all at once. No harm in asking.

proud willow
#

skin tones and available facial markings are different too

fringe bone
#

i wish i could make the tail go away

#

same with au ra the dragon race

#

There is no way to right?

fast talon
#

Outside of maybe mods, nope.

finite topaz
#

paissaowo Oi the tail is part of the charm

fringe bone
#

gotcha

fast talon
#

Funny enough the Alphinaud outfit thats new on the mogstation had a bug where it would remove miquote and aura tails, but I think it got fixed.

worthy venture
#

If I'm looking for a text guide for rotations where would I wanna look thats resourceful?

real violet
#

Well okie. So, I have been receiving t h e e x a c t s a m e e r r o r this past week. The last time I had a dx11 crash was at least over a year ago, but I have gotten 4 within the week, exactly at the same moment: when I dismount my chocobo

jolly sorrel
#

Any error codes or a clean crash to desktop?

wintry chasm
fringe bone
#

im sorry

#

im dumb

real violet
#

First time, 4(?) days ago? Then two days later.... and now twice in the same day! Yes yes! @_@

wintry chasm
#

rynepat Ace

finite topaz
#

that's a graphical error...

finite topaz
#

yep seems like it happens a lot lmao

#

hmmh...

#

paissaowo is your GPU overclocked?

real violet
#

Nope, not that I know of

finite topaz
#

my GPU was doing auto-Overclock and that would give me that error, but it wasnt as constant as yours

#

This is weird indeed... and out of my area of expertise

real violet
#

Again, my computer has given me like... 3 dx-related errors since 2.0 came out until now

#

It's be extremely good to me

#

Now it's the same error

jolly sorrel
#

Its a super generic error, so its gonna require some oldschool troubleshooting. Stuff like, playing on lowest settings for a while, reinstalling video drivers, perhaps files are corrupt somewhere and requires a new download?

#

Just trying to gather more clues to pinpoint the issue.

real violet
#

Yeah...the problem is that I can't force it

#

It just.... HAPPENS

#

Some combination of...something, when I dismount, makes it lock up

jolly sorrel
#

Exactly 🙂 its the worst kind of issue. There are hundreds of possible solutions for your specific issue on the internet

#

but no clear cause or fix

real violet
#

Aye

#

It's only begun happening since 5.5, for what it's worth

jolly sorrel
#

Could be a driver issue, could be a corrupt file issue, could just be a bad patch on SEs end. (if its the latter, tomorrow theres a hotfix, may be worth waiting for it)

#

Perhaps try playing in dx9 mode, see if that changes anything. Internet frequently shows overclocking as the issue but.

real violet
#

Well, I at least know it isn't a driver issue. There was an Nvidia driver update recently so I waited to see if it occured only on the previous driver, but the most recent dx error, #4, means either both drivers are bad, or it's not the driver

jolly sorrel
#

Another common issue seems to be game overlays. Steam, discord, ACT

real violet
#

I have none of those :)

quick scroll
#

is paladin hard class to play

#

trying to switch classes got back 2 days ago

#

red mage or pala

jolly sorrel
#

Have you turned off the discord overlay? Considering you're using discord right now, and the overlay is turned on by default

real violet
#

I currently have Youtube in Chrome, Discord the app, and FFXIV running

#

Oh it's off, I'm picky :p

jolly sorrel
#

Then that's not it either.

#

Reinstall to fix corrupt files, playing on low settings/resolution, dx9 mode are still paths to take?

real violet
jolly sorrel
#

^ red mage and paladin are often said to be some of the simplest classes there are 🙂

real violet
#

Hmmm :|

glossy flare
#

Paladin is not harder or easier than any other tank

quick scroll
#

i used to main dragoon but i dont feel like relearning it

#

i always had to look at combos

glossy flare
#

well Paladin has 2 combos too, or rather the same combo with 2 finishers

quick scroll
#

i was crafter main so i did maps usually

#

o

glossy flare
#

all the tanks have combos though

#

it's the main melee mechanic

real violet
#

I might wait until that maintenance then. I'd need several days, apparently, to likely encounter the right combination of variables

quick scroll
#

what is gunblade doing different compared to pala

glossy flare
#

more combos 😄

#

it has a regular 1-2-3 combo

#

Which generates cartridges that you then spend on another 1-2-3 combo

#

Do I have to clear E9-11 before I can do 12 each week?

#

At the point where I don't need gear from the first 3 floors

waxen spire
#

Yes

finite topaz
#

Not each week

silver ruin
#

you can jump into 12 parties, but you lose loot for previous floors for the week

finite topaz
#

But you will relinquish the gear/book from previous ones if you do

waxen spire
#

Ahhh I see thanks

finite topaz
#

Like, not even clearing, just by entering

#

You already forfeit previous loot

waxen spire
#

Thats fine, my group has limited time to do reclears / prog and we're all geared up just need to complete 12

trying to change around a gear piece or two (currently ilvl 516 DRK) to up my skill speed to a more comfortable level, but all gear pieces that would supplement skill speed are a lower item level on the mb... is it worth it to drop a bunch of Crit materia to up skill speed (from 2.41s to 3.38s). I think my latency/ping is stopping me from double weaving at times.

obsidian patio
#

Nah

jolly sorrel
#

Technically yes, practically it doesnt happen.

obsidian patio
#

Just don’t tell random players you’re using it and you’ll be fine

glossy flare
#

technically yes, but there's no way they'd be able to tell

quaint nacelle
#

not really sure how mods work. how wouldn't they know? this mod is just local file changes?

glossy flare
#

exactly, it only changes stuff on your end

#

others can't see it and the server doesn't know the difference

quaint nacelle
#

gotcha thanks for all the info guys :D.

#

does anyone know how we can validate if this mod is safe?

obsidian patio
#

Just uhh, be wary of what you might find in the NSFW section of mods.

Plenty of people have used the mod just fine.

Lures can still break when failing to catch, though, so get a few spare.

warm snow

Lures are reusable but can still be lost so having 5 of them should be plenty

Gotchaaa, so I was probably confusing with the lures, oops

You'll want like 30+ of a specific bait if you're looking to catch something

fast talon
#

Just noticed the augmented exarchic can't be overmelded. Is pentamelding just not worth the investment for combat classes? Better to just go for the thing with a higher ilvl?

glossy flare
#

only really worth it at the start of a tier

#

so with ilvl 520, nah I wouldn't do it

fast talon
#

So is pentamelding mostly for people trying to do world's first or something?

prime flume
#

i cant do my MSQ until lvl 49 and im 47 but i did all the side quests in this area what should i do

fast talon
#

Duty Roulette

fast talon
#

Thanks

fast talon
jade quartz
#

Do a daily leveling roulette, unlock and run the level 47 dungeon Aurum Vale

fast talon
#

And dont be intimidated by pvp, no one really cares in Frontlines.

prime flume
#

i didnt even know this game had pvp

#

where do i do it

fast talon
#

Exactly

#

You need to do a side quest to unlock it. I think it should be where your grand company is?

prime flume
#

sweet to gridania i go

#

ty

jade quartz
#

Quest "A Pup No Longer" at your GC headquarters to unlock PvP

#

Then the quest "Like Civilized Men and Women" to unlock Frontline PvP mode which is the mode people actually play

#

And the one that has the daily roulette.

prime flume
#

yeah thats at uldah for me thank you

storm cosmos
#

how do i trade tokens for sand here? "trade" can't be clicked :|

fast talon
#

It gives like a 1/3 of your xp bar, pre-requisite is to be lvl 30 and have a job.

jade quartz
#

Click on Blue Crafters' Scrip Tokens?

prime flume
#

a job?

jade quartz
#

Also confirm you are actually speaking to the NPC Ulan, and not just looking at the list in your key items inventory

fast talon
# prime flume a job?

Yeah, a job stone. So if youre only 47 either: scholar, paladin, warrior, dragoon, bard, black mage, summoner, white mage

jade quartz
fast talon
#

i might be forgetting one

prime flume
#

oh im bard

jade quartz
#

Scholar uwucarby

fast talon
#

then youre good

jade quartz
#

Oh you said that first.

#

Yep, bard is the job for the base class archer.

prime flume
#

sorry for the stupid questions im still new

fast talon
#

its cool

jade quartz
#

That's what this channel's for

fast talon
storm cosmos
fast talon
#

nvr mnd then. i didnt even know you could look at the list from your inventory

jade quartz
#

Yeah you can't buy them without going to the NPC, but the list still shows a "trade" button for some reason

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

storm cosmos
#

also second question, for the anima weapon growth stats, they don't really matter right? so just dump it into crit and determination as a DRG?

fast talon
#

yeah at this point it doesnt matter

#

since they're super underleveled by now

jade quartz
#

Since the weapon is ultimately just a glamour these days, yeah doesn't matter in the slightest

fast talon
#

hell you could dump it into useless stats if you want to

tacit terrace
#

trying to change around a gear piece or two (currently ilvl 516 DRK) to up my skill speed to a more comfortable level, but all gear pieces that would supplement skill speed are a lower item level on the mb... is it worth it to drop a bunch of Crit materia to up skill speed (from 2.41s to 3.38s).

What’s your ping?

#

If it’s higher than 100, i’m fairly certain you cant double weave regardless of sks

fast talon
glossy flare
#

I would guess it's a typo and they meant 2.38

fast talon
#

lol i tried to correct a typo and typo'd myself, yeah meant 2.38

prime flume
#

oof pvp says more than 30m waittime

fast talon
#

oh yeah youre gonna have to get a feel for the sweet time to queue for pvp in your server

#

if you cant do pvp, keep redoing the highest level dungeon you can do, at 47 it should be aurum vale if you have it unlocked

prime flume
#

im half way through 48 so i guess i should wait

glossy flare
#

frontline roulette is only really active right after daily reset

civic flare
#

So I’m a newer BLM player that doesn’t have any eden gear yet and only a few bis 530 cryptlurker. I’m trying the high speed with tome build on ahkmorning, but have no combination of material to get me to 3600 sps, as I’ve focused on trying to get the jp opener (stuck around 3530). My DH is significantly less (around 2400) and the guide says long term to get them both to 3600ish. My question - to maximize dps short term am I better off scaling DH with SPS (eg 3000/3000) rather than trying so hard to hit 3600 sps?

heavy wadi
#

yeah ppl only rly do frontline after the reset

prime flume
finite trout
#

Guys is Hyadatos like dead? Seems really empty compared to Pyros 😦

fast talon

#

for crystalline crafter quests, do HQ items get any extra reward?

shut panther
#

yes

tacit terrace
glossy flare
fast talon
tacit terrace
#

2.38

glossy flare
shut panther
glossy flare
#

so 3540 sps would hit the next tier

#

If that matters for you

shut panther
#

so I suspect getting the sps in place is more important than low DH

glossy flare
#

It is

shut panther
#

DH is just a linear damage increase anyway so

glossy flare
#

But since it works in tiers it might not be worth putting too much time into it in the short term

#

Which is what the guy was asking about

civic flare
glossy flare
#

In the long term, yes

civic flare
#

How about short term... that’s where I’m stuck

shut panther
#

yeah, that's what I was getting at. I'd get the sps to unlock the rot you want to play first

civic flare
#

Wondering if I can help static more by going from 2500/3530 DH/sps to 3000/3000

#

As I work towards eden gear

shut panther
#

again, DH is just a linear damage increase so you're not going to somehow have massive damage problems if it's low

glossy flare
#

dropping down to 3k sps would be bad

shut panther
#

it might be different if we were talking crit

glossy flare
#

I wouldn't do that

civic flare
#

Gotcha. Thanks so much!

shut panther
#

so yeah, don't worry too much about it -- get to 3600, and just bring up your DH as your gear gets better

glossy flare
#

sps is especially important for blm since all your dmg comes via gcds

#

So get on that asap

fast talon
#

i would argue BLM is the only job that actively wants SpS

glossy flare
#

Pretty much, yeah

#

All the other casters care more about alignment than speed

civic flare
#

Thank you so much for your time and help!

#

I wonder if the best sps food can give me that 71 I need to get to 3600

glossy flare
#

you need 3655 btw

#

no idea about the food

civic flare
#

Looks like Pineapple Ponzecake only gives max of 22 😢

fast talon
#

Isnt Zefir the best food for sps blm?

other players, presumably

vital ruin
#

o nvm

heavy wadi
# cerulean schooner i dont have BLU but BLM does well enough

my recommendation is to run a level 80 class and do fates in the highest level area you can - for haunting, for example, I did them in the lochs. that's because the fates scale you to be 4 levels above the suggested level for the fate, and since the fates in the lochs are 69 it scales you to early shb stats which makes them a lot easier

I was able to solo boss fates as a gnb pretty quickly, and they barely hurt me

**Basic Instinct** : lvl 1 BLU (500 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.0 second base cast time)

Increases movement speed by 30%, and healing magic potency and damage dealt by 100%. Also ignores the damage penalty inflicted by Mighty Guard.
Can only be used in duties intended for two or more players while playing alone, while no other party members are in the instance, or when all party members are incapacitated. Effect ends when joined by one or more party members.

Blue Magic

A behavior learned from certain species of coeurl, the caster rises to the challenge of losing comrades by tapping into a feral survival instinct. When all seems lost, or when simply treading where a lone mage was not meant to tread, unrestrained ferocity is sometimes the only way to win through.

Hey I'm looking to purchase XIV on Steam and am transferring from PS4. Do I just need to buy the starter edition and I'll keep access to Shadowbringers?

faint flare
#

No

#

Gotta rebuy it all

slate arrow
#

You must buy all applicable keys for the platform you want to play on

#

In that case, buying starter only gives you access to ARR and HW. you still keep access to the jobs, I think, but you literally don't have stormblood or Shadowbringers downloaded so you can't log in to those zones or queue for those instances. It's a little weird.

vital ruin
#

4 lv 80s should be enough to solo zurvan ex right?

pulsar escarp
#

definitely

open coral
#

Yeah

vital ruin
#

1 healer 1 tank 2 dps?

open coral
#

Any comp, really.

vital ruin
#

Need a healer for that add phase

open coral
#

I mean, you don't really

#

You can burn it fast enough with 4 dps

pulsar escarp
#

I'm sure some of the 4dps also have healing if it's like, rdm for one

#

or fuck it, throw a warrior at it all

#

I'm sure it's fine

1/1/2 will certainly make it easier

vital ruin

In trying to mat farm wanna make that weapon

open coral
#

But 4 80s shouldn't struggle.

vital ruin
#

Ya I'll go for that

#

People duoed him so 4 should be okay

pulsar escarp
#

a few can be like, soloed

open coral
#

I think the only way I've ever really struggled on Zurvan was trying to solo it as WHM

with difficulty but they CAN be

That didn't go so well for me.

Are there items on mogstation u can sell for gil in game? I could really use 12 million for a mount

devout lichen

I found it

random girder

dancer aka "4 buttons + rng"

fading aurora
#

I forgot this isn't black desert online

#

I could still use that 12 mil gil so does anyone have any good gil making tips?

heavy wadi
#

do crafters + gatherers, and treasure maps

wintry chasm
#

Could do treasure maps, getting into crafting is a good method too. Otherwise it's just roulette Gil accumulation and whatnot

#

I suppose if you get into the nitty gritty aspect of gardening that's decent Gil too on the side (also assumes you have a garden)

fading aurora
#

I don't have a house yet

#

Something about me u don't know is that, in every mmorpg I play I'm addicted to getting every mount so I normally put that before everything else lol

#

I'll probs have half the mounts before having an apartment or house in game

vernal urchin
#

Considering a lot of mounts are time locked to pvp seasons, good luck with that

wintry chasm
#

I mean if you have an FC house that works too

devout lichen
#

what is the waterside/highland/woodland exploration thingies

slate arrow
#

basically just retainer leveling things

#

Use em for if you're leveling or chasing specific venture loot for retainers

fading aurora
#

Is it worth it to buy market gear when u hit certain levels or just grind the dungeons

devout lichen
#

I want the odder otter which comes from those

I see how badly you wanted otter

fading aurora

Is otter a pet?

glossy flare
#

there are 2 otter pets, yes

#

🦦

delicate field
#

Google it, it's cute. Odder otter

glossy flare
#

the other one is called Abroader Otter

fading aurora
#

I don't like having pets on I don't know why but they always walk infront of the npc when I try to talk to them and I always click on them by accident

#

Unless there's a way to prevent it I won't be equipping pets

delicate field
#

Hold down X

glossy flare
#

you can hold down X (by default) to make anything but NPCs unclickable

#

helps with player crowds too

delicate field
#

If you disable minion name tags does it make them less clickable or no diff?

glossy flare
#

you can still click their model

#

though the clickable area is technically smaller since the nameplate is gone I guess

random girder
#

^ can confirm able to click my minion

delicate field
#

Yeah i disabled minion names and never accidentally clicked it, probably makes a difference

olive totem
#

._.) So uh, I'm a low-level tank (40ish)... What does it mean when a healer has to spam heals? Does that mean I'm not using my cooldowns correctly?

prime flume
#

anyone know where the quest goin for gold is im in western thanalan but i cant find it

delicate field
#

@olive totem how many groups do you pull at once

olive totem
#

I never really had to spam heals to keep a tank alive, so I'm not sure if it's just me or did the healer blow their ogcd

#

@delicate field idk. I pulled the whole map probably

glossy flare
#

At that level range healers often don't have much ogcd healing available

delicate field
#

Lol yeah ok

strange coral
olive totem
#

I stayed alive but I was just curious

glossy flare
#

so spamming the gcd heals is the only thing they can do when doing big pulls

olive totem
#

I see

glossy flare
#

I mean... are you using your cooldowns correctly though?

delicate field
#

Yeah he was probably spamming cure 2 non stop

glossy flare
#

Like rotating them one at a time?

strong saddle
#

I'm not a scholar yet as I'm leveling summoner. Is it had to just spam all your heals at once?

glossy flare
#

using all your heals at once is pretty dumb

olive totem
#

Yeah, they healer wasn't doing bad. I don't think that happened to me often to where I had to spam gcd. Then again, I'm on patch 3.5ish

#

As ast

delicate field
#

Yeah i think on the lower level maps when tanks pull lots, healer will spam heals

glossy flare
#

whm, for example, gets their first ogcd heal at lvl 50

#

which is pretty late

delicate field
#

But we get used to it. Was he a sprout?

olive totem
#

Yeah, they asked me if I was really new to tanking

#

I told them I was new

glossy flare
#

How are you using your cooldowns?

delicate field
#

Tanking in this game isn't like other mmos

olive totem
#

I mean play dk

delicate field
#

You're usually expected to pull a ton. New healers don't expect it

As a healer of level 40s dungeons with tanks who pulled half the map, i had to use sprint, insta cast and stuff to keep up and heal the tank

Just standard SOP, keep stance on, face mobs away from the group, use mitigations wisely. Watch for tankbusters.

olive totem
#

When I get around 70% hp, I pop a cooldown and then I go dps

high otter
#

Where can I get dragoon lance, like on artworks? I got full armor set after lvl 50 dragoon quest ending, but no weapon

faint flare
#

Thats bad

#

You dont wait to use cooldowns

prime flume
#

just curious how do you level up after you do the msq as the first class you are?

olive totem
#

Why not?

faint flare
#

Because you're wasting effectiveness

olive totem
#

Don't I suppose to space them out?

plush hound
#

@high otter That is the Gae Bolg, the DRG early relic weapon.

faint flare
#

Yes, but you dony wait to start using them

glossy flare
#

the dmg you take at 100% hp and the dmg you take at 70% hp is exactly the same

#

so that 30% you lost could have been 20% lost

faint flare
#

Once you stopped pulling, you start using cooldowns

quick scroll
#

man i miss my company they all quit 😦

glossy flare
#

Also the earlier you use a cd the earlier it comes off cd

#

hence more uses

high otter
glossy flare
#

so more mitigation

olive totem
#

? Wait, how does that make sense?..

#

I'm confused

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

It takes longer to get to 70% hp if you use a cooldown

#

Thus you take less damage overall

#

Thus healers can dps more

#

Thus stuff dies quicker

olive totem
#

No, I mean in between pulls.

#

You said use cooldowns

faint flare
#

I said once you've stopped pulling

#

You use cooldowns

olive totem
#

Ohhh

#

So when they're grouped

glossy flare
#

So once you formed a nice big ball of angry enemies

#

pop a cd

olive totem
#

I see now

glossy flare
#

also sprint is mitigation too while pulling

#

can't take dmg if the mobs don't touch you

plush hound
olive totem
#

Sorry I thought Vinyl said like when there are no enemies around to pop one

If you've finished the quest "The Ultimate Weapon" you're done the 2.0 storyline.

gentle socket
#

whats the button for screenshoting?

glossy flare
#

FYI, relic quests are a huge time investment and grind

#

and the gear they give you is not worth it anymore

#

except for glamour of course

high otter
glossy flare
#

I'm just saying, be prepared for grind

plush hound
open coral
#

It is strongly recommended that you put off doing old relic weapons until you're max level, as several of the steps can then be trivialized by unsyncing instances required for them.

#

The content is still tedious, it just goes a tiny bit faster.

high otter
#

I see. I was thinking of doing this stuff until my trial is expired, but I guess it's not possible to do with lvl 60 being the cap for now

open coral
#

It's possible

#

It's just going to be a bit of a drag.

#

Also, the trial never expires

plush hound
high otter
#

Oh. I thought it's like a month or something

open coral
#

Nope

#

Free trial lasts as long as you want it to

plush hound
open coral
#

The free trial is basically the same as having the Starter Edition of the game, but without being able to utilize most of the social functions (most chats, FCs, MB).

#

And has a gil cap.

plush hound
#

But once you start paying you're locked into it and can't go back.

devout lichen
#

if I have helmet hidden, is it hidden for everyone or only me

open coral
#

Everyone

#

"Hide helmet" is basically a glamour function

devout lichen
#

but isn't there emperor's new hat too

#

what's the point of that then

open coral
#

Hide helmet is a universal function

fresh lodge
#

Because the option to hide your helmet predates the glamour system

delicate field
#

If you want to show helmet sometimes

open coral
#

If you want to have only one set with the helmet hidden and can't be bothered to click the button every time you switch gear, you use the Emperor's New Hat.

Yes, save gear sets

fresh lodge

You have to be able to enter Ishgard to unlock Dark Knight

For easy swapping

strong saddle

Yeah thats what i meant

gleaming finch
#

cool, i'll make sure to do that! is the little "recommended" gear thing good to use?

Many classes share gear, so saving is good sometimes

heavy wadi
#

in terms of leveling gear, yeah

gleaming finch
#

awesome, thanks all

strong saddle
#

Is crafting gear at low level worth it or no

boreal storm

If your other crafters are low/aren’t unlocked

My best guess is youre at the wrong npc, lookup a vid on youtube and go through it that way.

strange coral

Joellaut is one of the npcs. What does he say when you talk to him?

he gives some generic dialogue which doesnt advance the quest

Huh.. ticket then they're generally pretty quick to respond

And you've talked to the other 3 already?

He doesn't have a quest marker either.

does the road to 70 buff make the armory bonus 200%?

okay thanks

im just wondering how im getting 500% + xp

#

When you kill an enemy you can see the (+XX%)

Yea

All exp buffs stack..add +3% to that with food and 10% with fc buff

500% is unusual i think lol where is this

im lvl 7

i have chain bonus and rested

twilit arch

armoury bonus, rested exp, and road to 70

#

would easily hit that

polar hound
#

Aetheryte earring etc

dense quiver
#

now i have 600

#

does rested 50% bonus also become 100% bonus due road to 70?

delicate field
#

Road to 70 is 100%, armoury bonus is 100%, rested is 50%. Not sure how that adds up to 500%

dense quiver
#

doesnt armoury bonus become 200%? and rested 100%? due road to 70?

twilit arch
#

because road to 70 doubles it

faint flare
#

Rested is 100% under 70

#

It becomes 50% post 70

#

i have 306% without chain bonus and without rested

is there a way to just look at all the parse logs on your character in fflogs? without having to click through each and every instance?

faint flare
#

Go to your character profile

trail prairie
#

where do i go from there

faint flare
#

Click on a fight on your profile to ser your parse numbers for that fight

trail prairie
#

that's what i mean, is there a page that just lists out all the parses instead of having to click on each individual instance

faint flare
#

Your character profile by default shows the average of each fight but not for all logs

forest lark
#

Is there macro for ninja mudras and is it wise to use them?

open coral
#

No and definitely not.

#

Generally speaking, ability-chaining macros are not a good way to go, since you lose time with them.

#

!action ten

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Ten** : lvl 30 NIN (20.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Make the ritual mudra hand gesture for “heaven.”
Duration: 6s
Maximum Charges: 2
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
Conversely, execution of weaponskills triggers the cooldown of this action.

faint flare
#

Combat macros are just trash jn general

open coral
#

So the gcd is 2.45s(ish), but macros only function on full seconds - meaning you'd need to have a 3s <wait> command between each step of the combo.

faint flare
#

Cause of lack of skill que adding way too much delay

open coral
#

Which means you're losing about 0.15s per queued action to prevent clipping and failing the combo.

#

Which amounts to nearly a full second (0.45s) every time you use the macro.

forest lark
#

I see well loks like Ill be manually doing these

faint flare
#

Trying to press less buttons will always have you do less dps

zealous flower
#

anyone have like a "main points in text form" (not video) guide to recommend for bozja encounters

If i pick up a beast tribe quest on say, a level 60 white mage

open coral
#

@fringe bone If you want to see how to get to the post moogle in Gridania, I can show you. I'll do a quick stream on Twitch just to run there, and then send you the clip.

limber parcel
#

can I do the quest on the white mage, swap to a level 45 job, and hand it in on that?

#

or will it have to be the white mage?

faint flare
#

No

fringe bone
faint flare
#

Combat beast tribes can only be turned in on the job that accepted it

limber parcel
#

What about picking it up on a level 45, doing the objective on the WHM and then swapping back?

fringe bone
#

i just cant deal with text it makes my head hurt its really annoying but cant do notthing about it

faint flare
#

Combat beast tribes need to be done as the job who accepted.it

Once you've watched one of the cutscenes for finishing a stage of the Anima weapon questline (usually the ones where your character holds up the new weapon), is there any possible way to rewatch them? I missed out on a really cool wallpaper opportunity because I had goofy gear on

cold frost
#

Probably at the inn

warm yacht
#

Good call

little swift
#

Do another weapon

#

You'll always see them again that way

warm yacht
modest igloo
#

I couldn’t find the cutscenes in the inn when I tried

#

Hope you have more luck then I do

warm yacht
#

Ironically the finished version was cooler than the Lux cutscene

cold frost
#

You couldnt find the cutscene in the list or the cutscene player itself?

modest igloo

The cutscene itself

Is there any way to determine my rate of catching a fish? I'm trying to catch a fish that, by all I'm looking at, requires 349 gathering to get, my current stats are 2177/1872/929 (after a slight food buff), and I'm getting the triple exclaimation mark pulls.
But out of three times I've gotten it, it's gotten away.

#

Fishing is 5 layers of RNG

#

Just because it's on the hook doesn't guarantee landing it

open coral
# modest igloo The cutscene itself

Some quests have multiple cutscenes - you have to use the slider at the bottom of the quest description (bottom of the right hand panel) to skip between them.

#

And the relic weapons have their own category.

modest igloo
#

What’s the category called? I couldn’t find any

gritty oracle
#

In the void ark on the chutulu boss, is the stoneskin a regular shield (gotta burn it off) or does it have some condition to disappear?

open coral
#

Stoneskin takes a certain amount of damage then vanishes.

warped gust
gritty oracle
#

So a regular stoneskin

open coral
modest igloo
#

Kk

open coral
#

Yeah, Vie. It should just be a regular Stoneskin.

#

Wait, which cthulu boss do you mean, specifically?

oak ice
strange coral
#

Cuchulainn has breakable stoneskin

open coral
#

I don't even remember him having a stoneskin...

#

That's why I got confused suddenly, because Irminsul and Sawtooth has a shield mechanic.

strange coral
#

He does when the adds spawn iirc

oak ice
#

He has the physical and magical shield version that disappears with damage

#

It's not the regular stoneskin icon

warped gust
#

Dammit Yoshi P. What's wrong with a normal distribution, shifted up in chances of success as stats increase?
And he won't let me wear hats, either. So rude.

Sorry if I make it sound silly but where shall I put a mention of me getting marriex for xiv sorry if it weird request

To invite people? Try Limsa

Well, only people from your server can attend, for a start.

Not DC, but server.

Can you buy elemental shards/crystals/clusters?

#

Like the things you get from killing sprites

open coral

Yes

WHY DID I NOT KNOW THIS????????

If I had known this that would've saved me roughly

48 hours of farming

But your 48 hours of farming saved you millions of gil

Is the recruitment channel for posting only, or can I ask to join a FC there?

Also, there are easier ways to farm shards/crystals/clusters than killing sprites

What if I eat lvl 80 food like ilvl 510 as a job that is level 38

#

Will it have effect

modest igloo
#

Yes, but it would be somewhat wasted

faint flare
#

It will work off the synced stats

#

So you won't get full benefit from the food

forest lark
#

Ah okay ty

mossy pulsar
#

when'd titan egi lose the abil to get or keep aggro? seems even when i send him in and cast anything, i get the aggro regardless now

faint flare
#

Shadowbringers

glossy flare
#

it no longer tanks for you

faint flare
#

Shadowbringers changed pets to not be targettable

#

So they can't tank

glossy flare
#

it just has some dmg reduction skills

faint flare
#

Not that titan could tank to begin with if you had any brains

mossy pulsar
#

why the change tho?

cyan ferry
#

Hey people, so i installed the game, like, before the weekend and i’m now level 35 or something, i’d ask a lot of questions but ain’t nobody got time for that so i’ll ask the most trivial one, if i got 4 commandations out of 4 in dungeons does it mean that my click random tanking abilities technique works?

faint flare
#

So pets cant die

glossy flare
#

the core design change was that pets can't be targetted and so they don't have any HP

#

by extension they can't tank for you

faint flare
#

Cause having your pet RANDOMLY FUCKING DIE FOR NO REASON before yoy bahamut'd fucking destroyed your dps

#

"Summon bahamut: missed"

#

Ahh my favourite

glossy flare
#

they also moved the core pet actions to your hotbar instead of the pet hotbar

#

but that's pretty minor I guess

glossy flare
mossy pulsar
#

and speaking of Bahamut, why's he wait for me to cast an abil to attack, seems....silly to me going that route, i'd rather have a pet that died, and attacked on it's own

crystal bluff
#

if i've already done my custom deliveries this week, is there a "fastest" other way of getting yellow gatherer scrips?

glossy flare
#

It's the design they went with. Personally I find it much better

faint flare
#

Because Wyrmwaves are executed when you cast a spell

glossy flare
#

Yeah technically it still attacks on its own, it's just tied to your casts

#

which you would be doing anyway

faint flare
#

It used to be any action but they changed it to any spell so people would stop using Addle as a DPS tool and use it for its proper intent

mossy pulsar
remote lintel
#

commendations are people telling you you did a good job

faint flare
#

Pets are much better now....even though the pet system itself is fucking ass

glossy flare
#

the only thing you have to order is Akh Morn

#

which are 2 per Bahamut phase

#

so not much to keep track of really

faint flare
#

If titan could hold aggro for you it meand you were a shit summoner

mossy pulsar
#

unless i'm moving out of aoe's, i'm casting, yes. but being returning player, i'm still learning the newer fights where i can call bahamut

glossy flare
#

Well sure, not being able to cast while moving is a typical caster issue

#

But that's by design

faint flare
#

And that's where ruin 2/4 say hello

#

Ideally 4 but

glossy flare
#

Yeah, you try to go into Bahamut with at least 2 ruin 4 stacks

#

But 4 are just as good

#

more movement

faint flare
#

At least 3 actually

agile laurel
#

ruin 4 is odd, you can use it as a movement tool but summoning bahamut with under 4 R4 stacks is a sin

glossy flare
#

Why 3? What else do you have to weave?

faint flare
#

3 ruin stacks is the minimum

#

The final 2 spells MUST BE INSTANT

#

Otherwise you lose a Wyrmwave

glossy flare
#

ah

#

yeah that makes sense

faint flare
#

Cause AINT GHOSTING FUN KIDS

glossy flare
#

you angry buddy

agile laurel
#

r4 akh morn r4, r3 r3 r4 akh morn, r3 r4 swift r3

faint flare
#

Love/hate relationship

#

The second R4 is for raid buff use and can be swapped for the swift r3

glossy flare
#

Bottom line: Learning to live with cast times is basic caster gameplay

#

They all have their tools to deal with it though
