yoyo here comes your favorite noob wiþ þe dumb questions, how does one obtain goblin cap?

Jonathas the achievement man
twilit arch
with achievement certificates. talk to jonathas in gridania
slate arrow
this is what happens when you optimize the crap out of the system and go "only one card is good"
twilit arch
you're often playing cards more actively than previous card system
faint flare
You played a card every....2 minutes?
slate arrow
now all the cards are decent
faint flare
Unless you were lucky
proud mirage
with achievement certificates. talk to jonathas in gridania
ara ara, þank you
fading helm
!barding
twilit arch
draw is a 30s cd
so you're often playing it way more than the old system which required a fair bit of more set up before a pull one
and two if rng hated your ass, you could be sitting on a royal road for awhile w/o having played a card
faint flare
To play any card you basically had to wait a whole minute, praying for the right cards to even show
Only 2 cards even existed in the old system
twilit arch
you're using divination basically every 120s
faint flare
3 occasionally
twilit arch
so like...yeah, AST is absolutely not worthless compared to the old system
fading helm
why are the items the msq completition gives so bad so far
faint flare
While the new system is less unique, its far better functionally and of doing your job of buffing people
fading helm
like im only lv 35 msq but still these items suck lol
remote lintel
probably because youre overleveled
delicate field
if you grow a flower in a flowerpot, does it decay if you dont take care of it?
faint flare
Who plays shield ast lol
remote lintel
hardly anybody uses noct now
twilit arch
we don't know exactly what the changes are going to be
faint flare
The tanks are still different
remote lintel
the tanks have different playstyles what
faint flare
They have their core defensive kit that is needed to clear fights
Then their unique playstyle
Same with healers
crystal spindle
guys what is the difference between light and dark
leaden ginkgo
if you grow a flower in a flowerpot, does it decay if you dont take care of it?
Nope, they can stay forever.
faint flare
All we know is that Astro is moving to a more "pure" healer role like white mage
remote lintel
@crystal spindle in what context
crystal spindle
there are servers
slate arrow
Light and Dark are datacenters
remote lintel
theres no difference
twilit arch
AST does its job just fine
faint flare
Ast can solo heal fights if used effectively
crystal spindle
ok thanks
slate arrow
clear parses are roughly equal between all of the jobs
twilit arch
??
slate arrow
so please, stop saying stuff you don't understand.
twilit arch
sir what are you talking about
faint flare

AST is not useless dude

faint flare
150 potency to all enemies
twilit arch
that's not really an assize equivalent
they are two different skills used for different purposes
you can't compare every single healer skill to each other
slate arrow
Then please, elaborate. We'll wait.
faint flare
We dont know, we dont know what changes they'll do
twilit arch
for one we don't know all of what they are changing
faint flare
Other than it will be a pure healer like white mage
faint flare
It will probably maybe keep its focus with delayed, but stronger healing and cards
But we'll have tk see
No one knows
fading helm
how do u join the conjurers guild?
leaden ginkgo
Healing is mostly raw skill, reaction time, and knowledge of how to use your toolkit. People fall into certain healers that fit their playstyle better. Pure healers are, traditionally, reactionary. Shield healers have been about planning ahead and adjusting in previous games.
fading helm
i heard u get a unicorn
faint flare
Go to the guild and do so you wanna be a conjuerer
fading helm
its in ulduh?
twilit arch
no gridania
slate arrow
They didn't strip AST, they merely reworked it because literally only one card was useful in any context.
faint flare
Lol
faint flare
Do e12s without shields
twilit arch
they arent removing barrier healer
faint flare
I'll fucking wait
twilit arch
they're literally adding a new one lmao
faint flare

Enough of the doom saying. This isn't the place for this kind of conversation. This is for helping people
Not debate

Ranting about how a class is bad based on personal experience belongs in #rants, not here, as it gives a bad impression. I think this is a bad channel to troll in.
obsidian patio
Friendly reminder that mentors are mods for their channels. 
faint flare
Astro is extremely strong in thr right hands
twilit arch
Of which we cannot answer you as we have no idea of how SE is going to change AST
slate arrow
#general-discussion is that way if you want to speculate.
twilit arch
they are not removing shield healers
they are literally adding a new one with Endwalker
obsidian patio
They fixed AST by removing the jank
faint flare
They remove skills that aren't used any more

Nope. Not dealing with that.
leaden ginkgo
Thank you
delicate field
is AST shield healing really that bad?
remote lintel
no
slate arrow
No, it's perfectly fine.
heavy wadi
ast shield heals are better than sch, number wise
faint flare
And Noct ast is effectively weaker in all regards anyway compared to diurnal
But noct is fine
remote lintel
if you know how to use it then you can play noct ast fine
faint flare
Just diurnal is better
ionic hazel
so like is this patch supposed to be 5.55
faint flare
5.5
faint flare
You're hallucinating the extra 5
obsidian patio
This maintenance is just hotfixes
slate arrow
The only time the number changes is if they're adding content
otherwise it's usually x.x (hotfixes)
delicate field
how do you type a HQ sign in chat?
ionic hazel
or translation arrows
slate arrow
Translation is via Auto Translate.
obsidian patio
I think those are done through unicodes or scrounging through the code for the text
faint flare
Those people probably have all the special signs in a macro and copy/paste
rose oak
Is there a way to buy the lvl 60 old creed gear
delicate field
I seen people do some emotes using the HQ sign
slate arrow
Just press tab to start scrolling through phrases, or you can do autocomplete with typing part of a phrase, and pressing tab will search through similar stuff to get the best result.
rose oak
Ty, I'm missing 1 piece I guess. Cheer
leaden ginkgo
how do you type a HQ sign in chat?
I found this method, "One method is to drag an HQ item from your inventory to the chat bar. That will put that specific item with the HQ symbol into your chat text. From there, you can just delete the other part and type whatever you want. You can also copy paste the symbol for use later."
delicate field
haha yeah i found tht too but when i do that, it simpy says <item> in the text edit

There is a free trial on pc
fading helm
ohh its the body

You need an empty slot in each section of the armoury to swap gear sets
slate arrow
If you're looking for the Steam free trial it's listed as a Demo under Starter

leaden ginkgo
They're slanted skylights

how to junk it?
sterile parcel
It's not the stage platform is it?

nah just a little tense mb
obsidian patio
The flat things might be the troupe stage or lofts

discard?
slate arrow
that's an option yes
sterile parcel
You can discard it or sell it Griz

if sell is available, if not discard is usually the only option if you cannot desynth yet

Event might cycle through again
slate arrow
They might rerun it, but until something is announced we don't know.
twilit arch

oh an actual rerun can happen?

Bag or Hammer, since some towns do combine the repair person with the merchant/vendor
slate arrow

slate arrow
i just hit lvl 80 so should i buy better gear of the market board or is there no...
there's no need, but you could get it if you want to be lazy by the time you hit ShB patch content
faint flare
You gear for your story level, not job
Though you probably wanna swap jobs to soak story xp or something
slate arrow
It's in roulette, just queue for it with duty finder and wait
leaden ginkgo
oh ok tyty
hollow briar
Are maintenances always like 5-6 hours? And how often are they?
faint flare
However long they need
slate arrow
usually only right before major patches
slate arrow
this is an exception because there's progression blocking bugs
fading helm
only purchase

how do i sell to these vendors
open your inventory > right click > sell

Sooo, my friend is tryna download the game for the first time and the launcher keeps crashing and spitting out the error code [30413] [25008] [20495]. Upon research, there's like 8 different solutions including using a VPN, changing your DNS server, closing all background applications, and disabling antivirus.

is there a good NA server to make friends on? everyone on leviathan is stuck up and wont do anything with you or treat you like a person unless you're in their clique
remote lintel
all servers are basically the same and the population is large enough that i doubt every person on levi is like that
remote lintel
a lot
leaden ginkgo
I'm on Levi, it seems pretty typical of an mmo server. Like any mmo, people tend to make friends in guilds/fc's. As for the people, they're a friendly bunch for the most part. There will be jerks in every group of people, but overall I've enjoyed my years on this server.

they said with ShB that viera and hrothgar are basically going to be it for now
random girder
id rather they fix viera/hrothgar and add a ton of new customization options

🤷
There's a soft logout timer of ~20 seconds if you're not in a sanctuary zone. It's fairly normal for MMORPGs
cursive abyss
they said with ShB that viera and hrothgar are basically going to be it for now
IIRC, it was a "Don't expect anything for a while, but we didnt say that ShB was it for no new races" type deal, yeah, what Sahr'li said.
hollow briar
Is Complete Edition the go-to for full game or is there any advantages to buying the starter edition plus the Shadowbringers Collector Edition?
analog gate
collector's edition would net you some exclusive cosmetics, but will be more expensive
slate arrow
you can always upgrade to collectors in Mogstation later.
twilit arch
In a Fan Festival keynote speech, I stated that this will likely be the last time we add new playable races to FFXIV.
its HIGHLY unlikely we will be getting a new races any time soon
if we are getting new races, it will probably be several expansions before that happens
cursive abyss
its HIGHLY unlikely we will be getting a new races any time soon
Were people upsetti spaghetti at this? I imagine the "I Want Playable Garleans" camp wasnt very happy.
remote lintel
people would rather have viera and hroths fixed
hardy mauve
Is it worth doing ALL of the role quests (tank, melee/magic dps, healer) before finishing the ShB story? Ive done two, but am not sure if I want to take the time to level two more alt jobs instead of just continuing the MSQ
remote lintel
yes
remote lintel
i recommend it especially if youre interested in ||the warriors of light of the first||
hardy mauve
Right, I intend on finishing all of them eventually for that reason, I was just wondering if I need to do it BEFORE the end of ShB main story stuff haha
remote lintel
i think 5.2 is when the special cutscene for it appears?
twilit arch
doing it before post ShB will definitely make certain quest have more interesting dialogue
remote lintel
its like pretty early post shb
hardy mauve
Ok
manic flare
what kind of rewards do role quests give
hardy mauve
Ive done Tank and melee, I just really dont want to level my SMN and SCH both from 58 to 80 before continuing the story haha

level 80 artifact gear?
delicate field
Free gear
manic flare
wdym
delicate field
From gereolt or whatever his name his
remote lintel
doing the quests is the prerequisite to getting the lvl 80 gear
manic flare
is that the relic gear?
manic flare
what are they called, the law and order stuff?
remote lintel
no
delicate field
Weathered gear
remote lintel
weathered whatever
slate arrow
The starter job gear you get at item level 430
twilit arch
realistically weathered isn't the catch all term for it
since...it and antiquated are both used in various other places
manic flare
im guessing you can augment/upgrade that gear?
remote lintel
no
twilit arch
they went a different route this time for af4
in that the dyeable version is from an extreme trial

specifically, you unlock the instance after performing the solo trial for the first 485 weapon.

Buying a house from someone else

yah how much to buy from someone else
using an fc or whatever
manic flare
yah how much to buy from someone else
you can check the housing discords
twilit arch
you're probably going to get better answers looking at ffxiv housing market discord
delicate field
Like you have someone destroy/move their house so you can buy the land + pay them to have done it?
manic flare
im not sure how it works exactly
twilit arch
Either they relinquish the plot so you can relocate
or you take over as lead for an fc
delicate field
So there could be a risk of someone sniping the plot before you can get it?
twilit arch
if you don't own a house, yes
manic flare
this how it works @delicate field
i can't invite people to that discord, think it might be bugged
twilit arch
i literally posted the invite
delicate field
Oh wow yeah it specifically says don't pay someone to abandon the plot so you can buy it
crystal bluff
is there not level 60 crafter scrip gear?
twilit arch
there is
manic flare
i literally posted the invite
that's a different discord
delicate field
Level 58 and 70
twilit arch
but the left side is...kind of meh
manic flare
but i guess it also works
twilit arch
because its class specific gear
easier to buy it in ishgard than in idyllshire though
delicate field
The Level 58 is universal
twilit arch
because idyllshire you have to exchange items, whereas exchanging for it from the splendors vendor in ishgard is a straight yellow scrip purchase
not talking aobut 58 gear
i am talking about the 60 set
delicate field
Yeah skip it. Go from 58 to 70 handking
manic flare
this is one one i was trying to get the invite from:
crystal bluff
where do you get 58 gear then? or just marketboard
delicate field
Level 50 yellow scrips vendor category in idylshire
crystal bluff
thanks
delicate field
There's no accessory tho, just armor
twilit arch
you'd want to buy the lvl 60 accessories anyway
next steppe
sorry, this is probably dumb, but when you get two lines in the Wonderous Tails, do you get to choose the reward for the one line as well, or just from the two line choices?
twilit arch
you get to choose rewards from all lines you've gotten
so if you've got 2 lines, you get to choose from 9 stickers, 1 line rewards and 2 line rewards
next steppe
oh! thank you!
and I suppose just to clarify - if I am at the weekly cap for revelations, choosing that reward wont be an exception and go over the cap, would it?

you will not receive any revelations if you're at cap

Do you expect level 90 white scrip gear to be available right away, in line with crafted level 90 crafter gear?

remote lintel
theres capes
shut panther
Crafted crafting gear is always superior to scrips. It just needs to be melded.
twilit arch
because land/handsaint are more than enough for leveling thru endwalker for crafting and gathering
aesthete pentamelded just for that is excessive
shut panther
Having said that, there's not much point to going out of your way to build and meld aesthete's at this point.

Yeah I'm counting about 8 with TCJ
remote lintel
well thats the confusing image
faint flare
The signs aren't damage
junior hearth
Ok thanks
remote lintel
faint flare
They're letting you to the skill
devout crystal
So any enemy skills that can be cancelled by stunning them can also be cancelled by interrupt skill?
Vice versa?
faint flare
So any enemy skills that can be cancelled by stunning them can also be cancelled...
No
!faq interrupt
zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
See here
remote lintel
bosses cant be stunned at like 50+
faint flare
For what interrupt works on
lean hemlock
is the update starting?
fading aurora
Is ninja ranged like dancer or melee?
faint flare
Melee
twilit arch
yes, servers just went down
lean hemlock
maintenance is right now right?
modest igloo
Is ninja ranged like dancer or melee?
yeah it has postionals too
lean hemlock
fastest way to get guild points is just main storyline right?
devout crystal
can interrupt-able skills be cancelled by the stunning skill as well?
faint flare
If the target can be stunned in the first place
Which, bosses typically aren't
And mobs are immune after 3 stuns for a minute
And white mages will happily do that part for you
devout crystal
so basically against 50+ bosses stunning skills has no use at all? can't even stop their skill use? it has to be the interrupt skills (if it is interruptable).
faint flare
Yes
remote lintel
yes
modest igloo
yep
faint flare
Low blow is pretty niche
modest igloo
i dont even have them on my hotbar anymore
faint flare
I had it for that one guy at the end of matoya to stop it turning
twilit arch
would still recommend keeping low blow on your hotbar
delicate field
So interject is the tanks only interrupt?
faint flare
Yes
twilit arch
its an ogcd, and you can use it on trash
faint flare
And head graze for range
devout crystal
I see... for some reason I thought stunning skill is overall higher tier skill than the interrupt skill because interrupt skill only cancel interrupterable skill while stun can cancel anything. thanks for the clearing that up.
devout crystal
generally speaking who does the interrupt to stop enemy aoe?
remote lintel
for trash? white mage holy spam
faint flare
Whoever remembers to do it lol
devout crystal
boss?
faint flare
Usually tanks cause can't guarantee a ranged dps in the group
remote lintel
tank usually
manic flare
just realize i forgot to complete my weeklies. is there time to do them after maintenance ends?
elfin edge
like the mini boss trash in world of darkness <_<;
twilit arch
!weekly
zinc orbitBOT
Tick, Tock, Kupo!
twilit arch
no
modest igloo
would still recommend keeping low blow on your hotbar
I don't really play tank that often, lets see if it bites me in the ass or not
twilit arch
i mean it won't
devout crystal
sub lvl 50 dungeon boss aoe can be stopped with stunning or interrupt right?
twilit arch
as vinyl said, its a niche skill
manic flare
wait i thought the reset was at 11 am?
faint flare
Interrupt goes from "eh negligible" to "interrupt this shit or die" real fast when you get to higher end content
twilit arch
but it can be nice to use if you remember it
remote lintel
sub lvl 50 dungeon boss aoe can be stopped with stunning or interrupt right?
usually
devout crystal
i am a newbie playing a tank and I felt bad if i failed to stop the boss aoe
remote lintel
if the cast bar isnt flashing then i dont really bother
ripe hound
i am a newbie playing a tank and I felt bad if i failed to stop the boss aoe
No worry, it’s not really your job until really really really end game content
devout crystal
got it.
faint flare
Rather than stop it, use reprisal
modest igloo
bc the servers are already reseting, so they do both at once when maint starts?
faint flare
Reduce the aoe damage to help your healer
devout crystal
i see
remote lintel
you should be cycling reprisal anyway
twilit arch
why do they always time the weekly reset with maintenance
stop waiting until last second to get things done
manic flare
bc the servers are already reseting, so they do both at once when maint starts?
ugh. why do i always remember stuff at the last minute
devout crystal
btw, I wish if the system alert the player who is whispering to a trial player that they are on trial and can't reply back. I felt bad. I met many kind people whispering advice and even asked me to add them to the friends list. Trial can't do neither.
faint flare
It does
devout crystal
oh it does?
faint flare
Yep
modest igloo
ugh. why do i always remember stuff at the last minute
ngl being organized is a really good life skill to have, or just do it on reset day like I do
vital ruin
Will the maintenance last an hour?
ripe hound
Probably longer?
faint flare
It sends it then a system error says "guy is on trial boss, cant respond"
devout crystal
more like 5 hrs i believe
twilit arch
its 5hrs
faint flare
Hotfixes
twilit arch
hotfixes
devout crystal
what are they fixing??
vital ruin
What hotfixes
devout crystal
something broke?
manic flare
ngl being organized is a really good life skill to have, or just do it on reset ...
my brain doesn't operate like that. my brain pushes everything to the last minute
faint flare
They haven't said
vital ruin
steep roost
i got banned from the housing discord for talking abt bots
faint flare
They say what they fix afterwards
vital ruin
o
steep roost
which is weird cause like, I haven't even used one
twilit arch
maintenance often vary in their times
steep roost
:<
devout crystal
btw, ff14 has routine scheduled server maintenance I should know of?
faint flare
Nope
twilit arch
no
faint flare
Maintenances aren't frequent
twilit arch
maintenances are generally only with a patch or hotfixes
faint flare
Unless something serious broke
twilit arch
hotfixes being more rare
manic flare
this is a hotfix maintenance right
twilit arch
Yes
manic flare
just like last week
ripe hound
There will likely be a 5.55 and 5.58 right?
twilit arch
there will be a 5.55 yes
ripe hound
Somewhere down the line
faint flare
There will
ripe hound
I see
manic flare
has maintenance ever ended early?
ripe hound
What does .58 patch usually contains? Just a final bit of story?
manic flare
than scheduled
faint flare
Hotfixes can yes
twilit arch
no, 2nd part of story will b e 5.55
faint flare
Those usually just have Content unlocking and stuff
twilit arch
5.58 is generally like 'clean up'
ripe hound
I see
twilit arch
unlocking weekly capped stuff, adding mounts totem etc
ripe hound
Like 5.58 is like the “really really final version” of shadowbringers
faint flare
Techincally yeah
devout crystal
do we ever get our own personal airship like true final fantasy?
faint flare
Story and content finishes with 5.55
modest igloo
do we ever get our own personal airship like true final fantasy?
kinda? spoiler tho
remote lintel
no
manic flare
do we ever get our own personal airship like true final fantasy?
you can get 2
ripe hound
I don’t think so? At least outside of story?
manic flare
||manacutter and falcon||
devout crystal
cool
twilit arch
that second one isn't currently obtainable
faint flare
One of those ||Well yes but actually no||
modest igloo
theres no big-ass airships, no
faint flare
That we can enter freely
twilit arch
there is a mega tiny one
modest igloo
||will the whale count tho||
modest igloo
when Eden promise savage unlocks, will we still need to re-clear 9 to work on floor 10?
honest anvil
you dont even have to 9 for 10 now
twilit arch
no
modest igloo
mb
twilit arch
whenever they removed the weekly lockout for savage, skipping floors doesn't forfeit loot on previous floors
essentially unlock the floors as well as the loot
modest igloo
got it!
mental oracle
Is there any point in doing crafting job quests other than lore?

appx how big in yalms is the arena for savage fights like e9s and e10s?
thinking about how far my heals reach
honest anvil
just stay close to center before you click heal ... anyone who’s out of range of healing from center is not your fault really ...
normal breach
anyone know if theres a crafting guide or youtube video that shows how to make 4 star recipes
delicate field
What level 4 star
honest anvil
#doh-dol-lounge has rotations pinned iirc

I wouldn't even agree with that tbh

Do we need to update the client after maintenance?
cyan ferry
Quick question, i just got my tank to 40 (yay) but my armor is like a puzzle, nothing feels right and i think i still have a lvl 14 jewel lol, any suggestion of gear to grind?
karmic cove
Coil was so long ago, difficulty may differ for group. Twin felt impossible with the invisible twisters. for 2nd coil our group had issues with nael and medusa but the other fights were easy. for final coil it was T11 because of the tethers. T13 was not hard just needed so much damage to kill bahumut that there was no room for mistake. Mechanically Id say newer raids are much harder, but again it was a long time ago so I find its hard to gauge since they are nothing like they used to be even if you go back in sync
delicate field
@cyan ferry get tomestone gear at lvl 50
naive kraken
is there a lev 70 carnivale boss? i still havent beat lev 60 boss
finite topaz
Yes, a certain yellow boss
normal breach
is there a timeframe when the next set of crafting gear will be released? wondering if i should overmeld my current gear or if i should wait for the next set whenver that is
leaden ginkgo
How much longer is maint?
finite topaz
How much longer is maint?
Go to #kupo-bot-spam and write !maint to find out
delicate field
@normal breach about 5 months ish? But it all depends on what you want to craft too
leaden ginkgo
Gahhh. 3 hours 😦 I was all ready to play and everything 😠
toxic aspen
how long will the maintenance go for?
hollow briar

Oh wait derp
I'm sorry I can't read. Discount based on how long you buy for
And no reason to have the 8 character one really so

new ffxiv update?
naive kraken
are they ever gonna make old carnivale MSQ battles easier aside from stronger spells? XD
shell geyser
I have 2 newb questions:
- If I have created a Trial account and created a character whom I play with already, can I still use a Recruit A Friend code of my friend?
- Should I buy Shadowbringers now or wait for Endwalker?
earnest wraith
I have 2 newb questions:
1) If I have created a Trial account and created a char...
- you can't use/give RAF code with trial account.
- depends on your wallet... you can choose to wait for 5 months for Endwalker if you insist.
shell geyser
Oh so I need to buy the game first and then use the code?
placid bane
glass oyster
new ffxiv update?
Hotfixes
shell geyser
And as for the 2nd, is it worth to wait for Endwalker or not really?
glass oyster
Depends. Do you want to play the new content on release or not?
earnest wraith
it's really up to you... very subjective question.
shell geyser
Hmm ok thanks a lot everyone ^_^

@mental oracle also, tanks have gapclosers, which are generally 15 yalms, except for WAR's which is 20 yalms
earnest wraith
sometimes they finish eariler
elder sinew
If you have an FC house and don't log on, does it get demolished like a regular house?
remote lintel
yes
finite topaz
If you have an FC house and don't log on, does it get demolished like a regular ...
not quite, as long as any member goes in, the timer resets
not necessarily the FC owner
elder sinew
Mhmm, still terrible. Sometimes let the sub lapse to come back to new content

apartments never decay
mental oracle
Is there any benefit to having an apartment?
other than close teleport to retainer and marketboard
zinc orbitBOT

you can store furniture items in there instead of your inventory/chocobo saddlebag/retainers
mental oracle
If I buy a house and give access to my friend will the house still get demolished if I don't login but he does?
manic rune
If I buy a house and give access to my friend will the house still get demolishe...
yes, it has to be the owner that logs in and enters the house
cold oriole
Hello I do not remember how to buy a subscription to final fantasy 14 on PS4 and is it possible to take a subscription for the year like 50 € / year instead of 11 € / month thank you for your answers and your help in advance
jolly sorrel
I don't know about the PS4, don't own one. You can select up to 6 months instead of per month when checking out in the MogStation though
It gets you a bit of discount doing so.
opaque fiber
is it allowed to ask about FFLogs here
cold oriole
Thanks ^^
jolly sorrel
I have seen people ask FFLogs questions before.
whole wasp
Sure
opaque fiber
Alright then, anyone knows if Alexander savage FFLogs rating is something decent enough to judge myself on or someone newer is preferred?
opaque fiber
well
whole wasp
Also uploaders are not the whole playerbase
Being 50+ percentile is already pretty ok.
opaque fiber
I'll tell you what, my group is doing all content and we're currently at alexander, and as a level 60 summoner i dont like the rotation like I like level 70 so I want to improve on it
I got 76 on A6S
- I haven't done post SB msq so no Shb content for me yet
whole wasp
At least compare to recent logs if you can.
opaque fiber
My recent logs, or others?
whole wasp
Recent alex savage logs. Altho idk if those exist
Most just unsync and blast through them
opaque fiber
Yeah I saw that logs count unsync if im not wrong
warm snow
I don't think they exist any more
And jobs have changed a lot since Alex was current content
whole wasp
Yup. Skills added and removed. Potency changes
opaque fiber
I know, as a SMN main I definitely feel the rotation becoming weirder at lvl 60
So basically wait for omega savage to judge myself then to improve?
whole wasp
You can compare to yourself i guess to see if you get better.
Compete against yourself.
whole wasp
Omega will have the same problem
whole wasp
Current content
whole wasp
Even then its current patch
opaque fiber
to know how much further I need to get
finite topaz
Max DPS is affected by many factors
like Echo, party composition
It is very hard to judge, especially on older content
opaque fiber
Ah, we're doing no echo
finite topaz
Since ShB SMN isnth the same SMN as HW SMN
opaque fiber
yeah
warm snow
No fun summons
opaque fiber
No fun summons
ikr
Also a whole other subject, phoenix summon is not job quest locked am I right?
just get to lvl 80
warm snow
Ye
glossy flare
yeah, lvl 70 is the last job quest unlock for all jobs
warm snow
No more job quest locks post sb
warm snow
Except probably sage and the new job
glossy flare
all jobs
warm snow
They'll probably have a 10 level job quest with an unlock at the end
Like dnc and gnb have
glossy flare
There are role quests now and only one job quest per job at lvl 80. However all those job quests seem like they tie up the story
So it's anyone's guess if EW will have any job quests
opaque fiber
whatttt
glossy flare
Role quests are confirmed however
zinc orbitBOT
glossy flare
the lvl 80 job quests still give you a title though
opaque fiber
what's a role quest, like DPS quest?
opaque fiber
only title I need is "The Legend" 👀
warm snow
Caster, physical, tank, healer
glossy flare
There are 4 questlines divided by roles
opaque fiber
i see, rip
warm snow
Then a 5th for ranged dps in ew
opaque fiber
I liked SMN job quests
glossy flare
EW will have 5 questlines though, so all roles are actually represented
warm snow
Ish
glossy flare
ShB has the same questline for ranged physical and melee physical
warm snow
Since they're subdividing healers
glossy flare
I mean... yeah
whole wasp
I dont think the job quests can really continue
glossy flare
Just means Sage is more like Scholar and Astro is more like whm
pulsar escarp
role quests, right
glossy flare
I wouldn't say healers actually get divided into different roles
warm snow
I hope we keep getting the lv80 quests for more story
whole wasp
At least for sch, the whole job quest is resovlved.
glossy flare
There will be role quests, yeah
finite topaz
At least for sch, the whole job quest is resovlved.
you could start another plot tho
pulsar escarp
I don't mind role quests, ShB's were great
glossy flare
But all the lvl 80 job quests are pretty final or just conclusions to the storyline. Continuing those would be kinda weird tbh
whole wasp
you could start another plot tho
I guess. I dont really care about the potatoes now tho.
opaque fiber
I don't mind role quests, ShB's were great
Are they better than job quests?
opaque fiber
SMN
glossy flare
I guess. I dont really care about the potatoes now tho.
opaque fiber
ah rip
pulsar escarp
and I really enjoyed the caster dps role quest
glossy flare
They were asking about the role quest anyway
opaque fiber
I loved SB's SMN job quests
glossy flare
But yeah, the role questlines are good
pulsar escarp
yeah, so caster dps role quest is fun, you get Another CHild
glossy flare
Just not as closely tied to your job's identity
pulsar escarp
on top of all the others the game makes you adopt
yeah, but they're all 'oh you're a caster'
and like for the tank quests it had a DRK vibe
glossy flare
It is
pulsar escarp
got phys dps at 72 rn, healer at 64 but going up
opaque fiber
is the role questline longer than 5 quests
pulsar escarp
not sure actually...
opaque fiber
so like job quest's length, got it
glossy flare
Do note that you have to complete at least one role questline before you can finish 5.0 story
