I think I'm going to dabble in crafters with this alt, but what is their aura?

remote lintel
#

thats a gatherer

obsidian patio
#

Gatherer sneak

#

!action sneak

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Sneak** : lvl 8 MIN (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Tread quietly, enabling you to avoid enemies up to four levels above your own.

faint flare
#

It means they're invisible to mobs

#

Basically

cursive abyss

#

im stuck on a quest

faint flare
#

Without the movespeed slow

dire prawn
remote lintel
#

its just a thing so you dont get insta killed by enemies

faint flare
#

And nothing will see through it

#

So its actual proper and useful stealth

whole wasp
#

you can also mount while sneak is active

ripe hound
#

Is it possible to play FFxiv onehanded?
Probably with a MMO mouse?

whole wasp
#

technically possible but tough even for jobs with as little buttons as DNC

#

have you considered crafting instead.

#

then you just click the buttons

slender siren
#

MMO mouse would be your best bet, but it would be pretty tricky

ripe hound
#

Yeah, I guess so

#

Just a random thought lol

obsidian patio
#

There’s also the one handed keyboards

leaden ginkgo
#

What is the name of the light monsters in shadowbringers? In french we call them "purgateur"

obsidian patio
#

Like the Hori

#

Sin-eater

ripe hound
#

I guess a better way is to use a MMO mouse to move and manually click the skills? No idea lol

obsidian patio
#

With the big ones being Lightwardens

slender siren
#

Actually, use a keyboard with your hand for actions and control movement with your foot. With like a joystick or track ball

fallen axle
#

You can

#

I was about to ask where is greentear but I found it, nvm

plain python
#

at which 5.x that it is safe to read ShB short stories without being spoiled on the website? And are there other short stories from previous expansions?

twilit arch
#

yes the other stories are from previous expacs

#

most of the short stories can be read once you've finished 5.0

#

though if you wanna be real safe, then save it til you're done with grand cosmos

#

Where could I acquire a piece of level 5 headgear?

remote lintel
#

vendor

open coral
#

There should be a merchant right nearby who sells headgear.

pearl mesa
#

Question on the classes - I'm working on leveling a couple that I picked up way back at the beginning and never really went anywhere with.

#

The ones I've gotten to 80 played very similarly from 1 to 50, and then after 50 I suddenly started getting tons of new abilities and things to do.

devout crystal
#

How long do DPS wait for dungeon and etc? As a tank I am still waiting about 5-10 min

pearl mesa
#

Is that consistent for all of them, or at least the ARR ones?

open coral
#

You should be getting a lot new new abilities starting at level 30, when you upgrade from a class to a job, not at level 50.

pearl mesa
#

Depends on time. We're moving into offtime on my main server now, and my DPS queue was 20-ish for Leveling Roulette.

open coral
#

Unless you're putting off your entire job questline until 50, which is... not what you should do.

pearl mesa
#

Things improved at 30, but at 50 I started getting stuff like Blood of the Dragon and the OGCDs for WHM.

open coral
#

But generally speaking, yes. Rotations for all classes start getting more involved from level 50 and up. Most classes are considered to have the majority of their kit by level 60.

#

Although you'll continue to learn abilities or get upgrades to existing ones as you level from 60 to 80, and you'll get a powerful cd at level 70 and 80.

pearl mesa
#

Makes sense. Different priorities in class design with different expansions.

#

Don't get too attached to any rotations before LV50, then.

open coral
#

Pretty much.

#

A good example is actually the BLM rotation.

#

!faq blmrotation

zinc orbitBOT
#
Error!

No tag named blmrotation exists, Kupo!

open coral
#

!faq blmleveling

zinc orbitBOT
#
THM/BLM leveling rotations
open coral
#

You can see here how much it changes.

pearl mesa
#

I'm working on BLM right now, and I've heard enough about how it changes that I wasn't sure if it was just an outlier.

cursive abyss
#

What would happen if I held onto every single Allagan Piece I've gotten throughout the game and then used them all on the Doman Enclave Restoration?

pearl mesa
#

Good to see I'm doing it mostly right, at least.

open coral
#

Nope, BLM is maybe the most drastic about it, but all classes see similar kinds of change over time.

pearl mesa
raven sage
pearl mesa
#

Okay. Thank you. Does that still hold for the classes that were added post-ARR, or are they built differently?

light monolith
#

Does the squadron combat manual work in dungeons?

obsidian patio
#

Yes

light monolith
#

Damn i missed alot xD

cursive abyss
#

How do I configure the enemy health bars to display percentage?

junior condor
#

Some quest require to go duty finder and I'm not confident that I could do much help, I'm so new in this game
would it be ok if I just do the quest(use duty finder) I'm nervous

How to access the Alexander Savage?

You'll be fine! Follow the tank and hit whatever they're hitting!

NPC tab

#

So you can’t ever get a player home without luck? Can you at least buy gil with real money if it’s that dumb

open coral
cursive abyss
#

What do I change in here to display percentage?

robust crow
#

welcome to housing savage

#

lol

#

you either need luck or patience

#

the gil needed is a given

#

@cursive abyss its under this menu

raven sage
open coral
#

Oh, UI settings.

#

My bad

pearl mesa
#

My pipe dream is an Ishgard house, but my realistic dream is an island home. Or at least a balcony for my apartment that I can garden on.

cursive abyss
open coral
#

Yes. Check that box.

#

@finite topaz thanks

fallen axle
#

another question

#

in Idyllshire, is there a difference between the armor sets for tomestones that say DoW I or DoW II?

#

is the DoW II better gear?

twilit arch
#

yes

#

the gear in the I sections are low ilvl than II

slow isle
#

Well how often do plots open up and why would it?

#

If it’s that hard, how does someone manage to lose one

pearl mesa
#

Plots open up when someone quits the game.

fallen axle
pearl mesa
#

If you're unsubscribed for a full month, your house goes away, I believe.

olive totem
#

@finite topaz I'm on the 4th Alexander

#

Do I need to complete all?

pearl mesa
#

Other than that, people deciding to sell (very rare) or switching to a different plot (also rare).

gloomy ice
#

Housing? Rarely. Either due to someone getting auto-demolished due to extended absence or if new wards are added, which very seldom happens. Auro-demo timer is 45 days

finite topaz
olive totem
#

Ah!

slow isle
#

So is it worth buying the starter edition? I wanted the game cause of the housing, but don’t know how short that is. Can’t say the complete edition would be worth it.

pearl mesa
#

If you wanted to buy the game for the housing, honestly, find another game.

#

You can probably get an apartment in FF14, which is one room and allows no outdoor decorating. I was able to get one without trouble. If that fits what you're looking for, by all means, get FF14. If you want a full home-decoration experience, you probably want something else.

slow isle
#

Yeah, any kind of property’s fine.

pearl mesa
#

If an apartment is okay with you, you shouldn't have a problem. You do still get to set up the furniture and collect weird knick-knacks, and I have enjoyed arranging my own tiny studio apartment.

robust crow
#

apartments are barely housing though

remote lintel
#

just saying that furnishing a house/apartment tends to be expensive and you cant make that much money being locked to lvl 60

robust crow
#

they're incredibly limited in what they can do

leaden ginkgo
#

The 100 item limit doesn't help

pearl mesa
#

This is true. I only got the apartment and furniture after hitting LV 80.

robust crow
#

also no one's going around visiting apartments

#

but you bet your ass people go around visiting houses

pearl mesa
#

This may be a plus, depending on you.

#

(Got sick of all the random furniture clogging up my inventory, decided to see if I could get an apartment so I had somewhere to put it.)

robust crow
#

and yeah, regarding furnishing your house

#

you're either making your furniture yourself (requiring almost all crafters leveled)

#

or spending a truckload of money buying it yourself

#

or in the off case, farming it through a drop

shy kindle
#

Is it worth it to buy an ALC levekit 1-60 for 800k?

#

I've never even heard of these things

#

Someone's offering it in PF

pearl mesa
#

Huh. You can sell those?

shy kindle
#

idk?

robust crow
#

no

#

lmao

#

1-60 takes 2 hours through ishgard restoration

delicate field
#

Just level in firmament

robust crow
#

and costs under 50k

pearl mesa
#

I would guess it's a collection of all the stuff you need to grind through Alchemist levequests.

leaden ginkgo
#

I haven't heard of a crafting leveling kit since Ultima Online

robust crow
#

maybe 200k if you're extra lazy

twilit arch
#

honestly these days there's no reason to buy a levekit

shy kindle
#

ok thanks 👌

#

Is the firmament a permanent addition?

pearl mesa
#

I actually have a collection of all the stuff needed to go through the ALC 1-50 questline lying around somewhere, in case I want to do NG+ for it again, but that's mostly useless unless you're actually at LV 50.

#

Yes, it is.

#

The festival has not had its end date announced, so it's probably permanent, or at least going to be around for a good while. The Firmament is definitely permanent.

shy kindle
#

That does not roll off the tongue

delicate field
#

Fêtes are permanent

robust crow
#

800k is ridiculous for 1-60 though

#

lmao

#

it's ridiculous for 1-80

#

the price you pay for convenience i guess

Out of curiosity what job is the WoL in SB

#

if we reach lv80 and complete all msq, what should we do first after?

robust crow
#

whatever you want

#

what do you want to do?

#

raid? farm mounts? make money? hunt glam? endgame craft? housing?

burnt crown
robust crow
#

you can start with the weekly restricted stuff

#

go unlock nier 3 and run that

#

its loot is only obtainable once per week

burnt crown
#

oki

#

oh

#

what's current end-game gearset?

robust crow
#

i530

#

combination of augmented cryptlurker and edenmorn (savage)

buoyant sorrel
#

Ggs on finishing @burnt crown ^^

vernal urchin
#

the cryptlurker tomestone gear is what to aim for

delicate field
#

@burnt crown get all jobs to 80

burnt crown
burnt crown
vernal urchin
#

what level are you currently?

delicate field
#

It's not too bad if you just do the roulette on the desired class every day

burnt crown
#

OKIII, will start with finishing all possible raids, thinking of lvling all healer class first

delicate field
#

Cool @burnt crown actually that's what I did haha. got all healers to 80. also all doh/dol

buoyant sorrel
#

Um I was wondering if the Nightmare Mount was still available? Does it still drop from the ex trials I mean

twilit arch
#

yes

pearl mesa
#

My goal after LV80 was to get a good gear set for my main class (WHM), and get all the role quests done.

twilit arch
#

its just a low drop rate, its never been increased

buoyant sorrel
pearl mesa
#

I'm currently at average iLV of 509, mostly through Cryptlurker gear, although there is some stuff from Paradigm's Breach.

#

The relic weapon quest can eat a ton of time.

robust crow
#

i wrote this for myself/my FC

#

but it may be helpful for you

#

both you @pearl mesa and you @burnt crown

pearl mesa
#

Thank you! I know what I need, it's just taking a while because of the Revelation tomestone cap and because I wanted to start with the bigger pieces of equipment.

vital ruin
#

Where do I check whether my auto renewal is on or off

trail prairie
#

if i have a physical security token, can i now also have a seperate token through say, authy?

burnt crown
buoyant sorrel
#

Oh one more question 🙋 do people still run Frontlines?

twilit arch
#

yes ish

#

basically prime time is best time to queue for frontline roulette but dont expect queues to be that quick even during prime time

buoyant sorrel
#

Alrighty ty ^^

plain python
#

is it worth to have a fishing retainer on my second character?

#

I have botanist, mining. Plan for either x2 combat or 1 combat 1 fisher

twilit arch
#

ehhh

#

i'd go 2x combat

#

fisher retainer is really not that useful, unless you want it for the minions

silk summit
#

I can speak from experience, afishing retainer is pretty useless

plain python
#

is the minion buyable on MB?

twilit arch
#

yes

robust crow
#

can confirm

#

fishing retainer is shit

plain python
#

can you make your retainers not display weapon when you call them through bell?

fallen axle
#

does the game constantly spawn FATEs purposefully on top of quest zones for me?

#

im constantly getting FATEs that have aggressive enemies when I try to do quests that have searchable things needed

#

adn they keep interrupting me

leaden ginkgo
#

They're randomly spawned in

fresh lodge
#

No, the game is not intentionally trying to screw you over

plain python
#

I think just your typical RNG luck

#

yeah, it can be a bit annoying. But some side-quest monsters may also spawn from FATEs, which are lower level than their normal counterpart, thus easier to kill

Intellectually I know its just RNG, but it really does feel like everytime I go for something that needs "searching" or "investigating" with a long timer its always in a FATE lol

Hey so I’m trying out the PS4 version of the game for the first time. Using a controller for the first time. I noticed that when a target a mob or player and cast a spell my target swaps automatically to a different mob/player. Why is this? Shouldn’t it just keep my current target until I manually switch?

slim mango
#

Can Scholars use a level 50 ACN weapon? I want to use it for both Scholar and Summoner.

slate arrow
#

after level 50 scholars are forced to use the unique book as SMN books only work for Arcanist from that point onwards

twilit arch
#

usually tho the models are similar/same

robust crow
twilit arch
#

only mnk and paladin have that

#

and its only for shield for pld

robust crow
#

oh yeah

#

forgot it's monk fist only

fierce cobalt
#

I don't want to worry about ventures for a bit, anyone recommend an instance to farm for gc seals? All my jobs are 80

slate arrow
#

did you unlock expert deliveries

fierce cobalt
#

Yep

twilit arch
#

assuming you wanna do it solo

#

i usually do the aery or the vault

slate arrow
#

run expert and turn in the gear, use GC seals for ventures

twilit arch
#

if you're willing to do experts, then should do those and need on everything

fierce cobalt
#

I was asking for a specific dungeon or trial, like kaelwryn did

#

Are they about the same? Any tricks to know about?

#

Time/gc seals wise

twilit arch
#

ehh not sure on time/gc seal wise. but vautl usually only takes me a couple of minutes to do solo

delicate field
#

@fierce cobalt did you unlock expert delivery yet

twilit arch
#

and assuming you hit every chest should be around 5.7k~ seals per run?

#

maybeee more i don't remember it vault drops 2 per boss chest or not

delicate field
#

@fierce cobalt i gotten 1000+ ventures from hitting gc cap too mcuh with expert delivery of useless items

warm zinc
#

hey, is there any way I can move faster in town than sprint + peleton + en avant?

twilit arch
#

with experts its going to be a bit more flux since ofc depends on how much loot per run you get. assuming you get lucky with loot should be around 10k~ per run

#

peleton doesn't stack with spring @warm zinc

warm zinc
#

rlly?

#

wow

delicate field
#

it feels more "passive" if you do the roulette daily and greed on everything, then turn in after

Question:How do I tske care of my arcanist pet? It keeps hitting multiple mobs even tho i targeted one mob. Is it possible for ps4 to get like some sort of easy macro to manage pets?

twilit arch
#

the first summon you have is an area of affect pet

#

so thats why its hitting other mobs even if you personally are only targetting one

#

you can set it to steady

true jolt
#

guys.. what did you do with the event housing item? feels like each event it just keep taking my storage since i never use it. do you guys ever discard it or sumthing?

#

in character creation

#

Hi. I'm 39 AST. Why does Undraw exist? Why not just use the card on myself or another player? Undraw deletes the card, but I still have to wait for the the Draw to refresh to get a new card.

remote lintel
#

its specific to the npc

twilit arch
#

what npc is that

remote lintel
#

@last brook questions scientists still cant answer

#

just take off undraw

twilit arch
#

basically its just something they forgot to remove when they reworked AST

last brook
#

omg for real? That clears up a much needed spot on my skill tray

#

I've been hoping it would be useful

remote lintel
#

its not

modest igloo
#

there is his outfit tho

warped nest
#

They are your Job's quest line

#

Side stories revolving around you and Job NPCs

#

Some of these job quests unlock skills and traits

#

So, make sure you attend to them as soon as possible

remote lintel
#

blue quest

warped nest
#

It is not a Job quest specific icon

remote lintel
#

and they appear under your msq tracker on the top left

modest igloo
#

it's kept track below your msq tracker

warped nest
#

That's a icon for side quests that unlock things

#

Orange exclamation icon, under your MSQ tracker

fading helm
#

how can i level up to 10 quickly from 8

#

i already did hunting log and i need level 10 to get the next part

#

warped nest
#

@stiff skiff only Job quests for your current classes/jobs will show

#

And they will appear only when you have reached specific levels

vital ruin
#

How do I turn off my sub auto renewal

twilit arch
#

click cancel subscription

#

make sure you do not hit cancel account

vital ruin
#

Wait won't it cancel my sub

#

Or is that auto renewal

twilit arch
#

However many days you have left, you will keep

#

so if you have 10 days left, you have 10 days to play the game until you need to pay for a sub again

vital ruin
#

Oh

twilit arch
#

that's how you turn off auto renew

vital ruin
#

How do I know the amount of days I've left

twilit arch
#

it'll show on mogstation/the lower right hand corner of the character select screen ingame

vital ruin
#

I c. I'll check it out

unreal folio

modest igloo
honest anvil

#

The house that the deatht built or sth

modest igloo
unreal folio
#

ahhhh

#

ok thanks

twilit arch
#

basically you wanna be doing 150+

#

since that's when the drop rate is the best for timeworn

vital ruin
#

You don't have a battle job at 17 then @fading helm

fading helm
#

ah man

vital ruin
#

Idk if MSQ progression matters

unreal folio
#

but only a fix party

fading helm
#

im 36 in msq

twilit arch
#

if you don't have a premade group for artifact farming, may as well just do 51-60 and hope you get lucky with droprate

#

assuming you don't wanna do DR instead which is assured drop rate

fading aurora
#

Guys , I was doing msq and I was riding on midgardsormr because msq put me there and now he's in my mount guide

#

Do I get to keep him?

twilit arch
#

yes

fading aurora
#

How come it wasent an item I had to use

twilit arch
#

because its given to you automatically by the game

fading aurora
#

I wanted a dragon mount for ages

#

I'm so happy

#

What level msq do u get the phoenix?

#

Someone said it's around lvl 70 but idk if it's true

twilit arch
#

That's not from msq

modest igloo
#

its not msq, its from lvl 60 EX's

#

get all 7 bird mounts and you get the phoenix

vernal urchin
#

you get the firebird after you acquire all 7 of the heavensward extreme trial birds

modest igloo
#

whats the drop rate? 20%

fading aurora
#

It wasn't a fire bird

#

It was a normal looking phoenix

#

No flames or effects

modest igloo
#

yes i know

#

you collect the 7 birbs and then you get a quest for phoenix

twilit arch
fading aurora
#

It wasn't shiny

honest anvil
#

slate arrow

If you’re talking about the motorcycle, it costs money

fading aurora
#

I was talking about a bird mouny

remote lintel
#

no idea

#

wait until you learn of the spiky motorcycle mount

#

i was kidding

#

you cant get it anymore

#

it was from pvp

vital ruin
#

How do you get the reskin gundum mount

#

The colorful one

remote lintel
#

drops from DR

vital ruin
#

o

modest igloo
#

Mark III is from DR

#

you can buy it tho

vital ruin
#

Expensive af

modest igloo
#

should be only a few mil nowadays

vital ruin
#

Few mil MiqoteDepressed

remote lintel
#

yes

#

perhaps more depending on your definition of motorcycle

#

then those are the only 2 i can think of

modest igloo
#

joey if they don't send the SDS bike ask for a refund and they should give it

boreal storm
#

That’s the Tunnel armor from FF6

modest igloo
#

and no response? mine came in like an hour

#

oohhhhh

#

yeah that would be much more complicated

#

doubt they would do that with all the botting issues they've been having

polar hound
#

services can be shit sure but thats hardly any fault of theirs. shouldnt take long for a response

modest igloo
#

wrong account issues have been known to be troublesome

polar hound
#

that's not their problem that you didn't confirm things prior

twilit arch
#

Its not their fault you made this error

warped nest
#

Almost as if you are expected to check your own purchases before you pay money

twilit arch
#

its an account bound mount

#

there's no character to select because its automatically distributed to all characters, even future ones, on that acct

warped nest
#

If you make 40 characters

#

Each of them will get that mount

modest igloo
#

don't you have to login to make purchases?

twilit arch
#

The mogstation store makes you go thru like 2-3 different confirmation pages

#

That's not on SE but regardless

warped nest
#

Just to be clear

#

We are not technical support

twilit arch
#

this isn't the place to whine about it

warped nest
#

No amount of whining

#

Yeah, that

junior condor
#

If there a quest that require to go to duty finder in place you used to go but in hard instead

#

if you finished hard mode

#

will there another more harder than hard quest again?

boreal storm
#

No...

#

If you’re talking about dungeons

warped nest
#

Hard mode dungeons aren't really the same dungeon either

junior condor
#

yes

warped nest
#

They are remixes

junior condor
#

oh thank you everyone

modest igloo
#

some hard trails have EX versions, but not dungeons

warped nest
#

And no, that's not how the game increase difficulty

#

If that's what you are thinking

junior condor
#

XD

warped nest
#

Only some ARR trials have 3 difficulties

#

But ARR has a boat load of inconsistencies

#

Because the devs were still trying to figure out what works

modest igloo
#

in patch 5.4, there was a normal, hard, EX, unreal, raid, savage, and ultimate version of titan

junior condor
#

Ohhhh :0

boreal storm
#

And soon Ifrit and Garuda will join that list, maybe

twilit arch
#

3 of those aren't trials

modest igloo
#

was is the difference between trails and raids these days, other than loot

#

but yeah im being coy

warped nest
#

The Titan raid in Shadowbringers is not the same one as the ARR one

junior condor
#

I just want clear all side quest

#

;w;

warped nest
#

It is a different Titan for story reason

modest igloo
junior condor
#

Thank you very much >w<

Ignore as many as these sidequest as you like, they don’t do much

Question

#

If I've done all of my poetics roulettes what's the fastest method to get more

#

ARF?

modest igloo
#

ye

#

masked carnival and WT also have some too

#

WT? and I don't have BLU unlocked so can't do carnival

question about resistance weapon

If i abandon the 15 artifact quest, will i lose the artifacts?

dire prawn
#

Oh

modest igloo
#

but you can also just hide the quest

cursive canopy
# modest igloo nope

actually, i want to use the artifact for other weapon instead of the current class i use when i take the quest

#

anyway, thx for info!

modest igloo
#

got it, yep should work!

honest anvil
modest igloo
#

ARF is the best since it gets the first time bonus the most often on top of the normal poetics

thick summit
#

i am certain this is gonna get a laugh, but i've heard the term "kitchen sink CDs" used a few times in this game/content surrounding this game. I know what a CD is, what exactly does the "kitchen sink" part refer to?

finite topaz
#

and pray that u survive

thick summit
#

lol, thanks. i saw someone use the term during a proto-ozma guide, referring to soaking orbs

#

and nice taste with your avatar wink

whole wasp
#

Comes from the phrase. "Throw everything at it."
"Even the kitchen sink?"
"Even the kitchen sink."

remote lintel
#

do you think theyll announce the date of 5.55 before fanfest?

modest igloo
#

hmmm

#

probably not

#

they might announce it at fanfest tbh

twilit arch
#

before, no

remote lintel
#

i just wanna know how much more time i have left for ranked feast cryingcatto

twilit arch
#

considering there's going to be a LL on the 2nd day of fanfest

remote lintel
#

so they probably wont release 5.55 like 2 days after fanfest

twilit arch
#

it will most likely be the 25th

remote lintel
#

yeah it better be

twilit arch
#

cos that's consistent with the 10/11 day timeline

scarlet halo
#

I have a question, if anyone would be willing to spare an answer

slate arrow
#

i may have an answer, if you're willing to ask

modest igloo
#

shoot

scarlet halo
#

So: for context, I make YouTube videos (relatively high quality) for the game, and I wanted to be able to have the option of using chat text bubbles ala World of Warcraft. I am aware quick launcher enables this, but my question is this: Is it likely that I would get a ban if this is the only modification I make to the game, seeing as how it is only clientside text reading, along with reshade/gshade?

#

(also sorry for the wall of text!)

slate arrow
#

it depends on how rude you are with it

#

text bubbles are pretty inoffensive so I think you could get away with it

#

but we aren't square

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

modest igloo
#

as long as you're civil you'll be totally fine

scarlet halo
#

of course! this wouldnt be to harass or belittle anyone, by any stretch of the imagination! this game is just my life, so i would hate to ruin my acct because of it is all!

#

its literally only a QoL thing for editing/visuals!

modest igloo
#

then you should be good to go

remote lintel
#

just know that any 3rd party program that messes with the game is technically bannable

scarlet halo
#

i know 3rd party stuff is usually actionable, but to my knowledge the instances that are basically insta-bans are lewd mods and parsers/aoe markers/botting tools

remote lintel
#

yeah but youre still taking a risk

#

i would just make it look like you edited in the chat bubbles or something

#

like post process

scarlet halo
#

yeah, i was thinking of putting in a disclaimer of smth like "no mods/third party tools were used in the creation of this video" or something like that

remote lintel
#

yeah the game cant detect it so

slender sphinx
#

I have a friend who insists that Iron Jaws is actually a dps loss compared to refreshing Bard DoTs individually. Here is their reasoning. Is what he says true?

plain python
remote lintel
#

@slender sphinx i dont have to read it to say no

slate arrow
#

iron jaws > applying dots manually

modest igloo
#

even with the funky tics its still better to use iron jaws

slender sphinx
#

@remote lintel Ok but i'd like to convince them otherwise so can you put it into words?

slate arrow
#

caustic + storm = 250 over 2 GCDs

#

Iron + burst = 100 + 250 = 350 over 2 GCDs

remote lintel
#

^

twilit arch
#

iron is applying both dots at once

remote lintel
#

losing out on a tic to gain a full gcd is better

twilit arch
#

doing it manually means you're having to use an extra gcd to set them up

#

vs the 1 with jaws

remote lintel
#

full gcd attack > dot tic

hard elm
#

If I feed my chocobo a color-changing item, will it still work if I immediately pull it out of the stable, or does it need to be in the stable for at least 6 hours afterward?

slate arrow
#

and that's not counting the Refulgent Arrow proc

remote lintel
#

it needs to be in the stable

hard elm
#

Ah. :(

slate arrow
#

so instead of having to do 250 manually, you do 100 + chance for 340 for 440 in 2 GCDs

#

instead of always 250

remote lintel
#

SE put iron jaws in there for a reason

fading aurora
#

Does dancer equip primal or fending accessories?

slate arrow
#

remote lintel
#

not fending

slate arrow
#

because dexterity

fading aurora
#

In the msq I only have a choice between those 2

#

So idk which to get

twilit arch
#

then choose whatever because neither of them are for dancer

fading aurora
#

I'll just take the gil

remote lintel
#

whichever one has dex

ARR lvl 50 quests were added after each patch? I have to do 2.1 patch version of lvl 50 msq all the way to 2.55? Or latest version overwrote the earlier version?

modest igloo

you must do the msq from 2.1 to 2.55 to get into HW

Holy cow

That is a lot

modest igloo

used to be more

#

ARR is technically base game so it is the longest really haha

fallen niche
pulsar escarp
#

same thing

#

Ivalice raids also necessary

fallen niche
#

Yeah but do you need to do 5.1 for it

modest igloo
#

yes

#

they are directly tied to Bozja

#

some steps are locked until you hit a certain rank in bozja

What's the difference between Standard Step and Technical Step and do they stack with each other

if you just want the base weapon though it’s easy as shit haha but yeah augmenting it is... bozja, so hope you like it

I made a loft in my house, but I can’t put any furniture on the loft. Do I need a mod or something?

What is the estimated drop rate of Byakko’s Mane/weapons on Jade Stoa extreme? Worth farming or just pay the 1million Gil for it? How many tries on average in people’s experiences?

plain python
#

collect whatever along the way 😄

opal shoal
#

Byakko is super simple to farm at current ilvl and even if the mat doesn't drop you can desynth his weapons that do drop for another chance.

gloomy mortar
#

If you do Jade Adria extreme unsynced with 520 gear, about how many people do you need?

modest igloo
plain python
#

I think 4 i520 works? Used to be a tag along with a BLU lv70 there

#

but just fill the group to brim. Faster and less mech

gloomy mortar
#

@opal shoal According to gamerescape, desynthing the weapons don’t give you Byakkos Mane. Has it been changed?

opal shoal
#

Farm parties are still common enough that getting 8 people shouldn't take too long

plain python
#

set your min ilv at 430 to avoid lv70 joining in 😄

pure sail
nova umbra
#

say you wanted to create a temporary static of strangers to just farm diamond weapon and everyone would run until everyone got the mount. Would most people actually stay?

modest igloo

Will free company make the game more fun, I'm quiet lonely

Depends on the FC

some of the bigger ones are not that social

#

but at any rate you'll have a global chat while playing the game, that's something I guess

sullen lark
slate arrow
#

understandable, theorycrafting is fun

high otter
#

How different tank damage/dps is from damage classes in FFXIV? For example, in TERA Online tanks are dealing impressive damage, falling behind damage classes just a little. In other games though, tanks are dealing literally 0 damage, while being unkillable.

slate arrow
#

tanks are merely DPS with defensive cooldowns and a tank stance in this game

polar hound
#

every job is expected to dps

high otter
#

I see, so basically here tanks are dealing good damage too

polar hound
#

they're still behind dps but yeah

high otter
#

Yes, but I guess by not a lot behind, like 10-15%

#

What prevents people to play tanks and queue as dps though?

glossy flare
#

Still quite a chunk tbh

dire prawn
#

Try almost half the dps of an actual DPS

#

And because people hate tanking

glossy flare
#

And tbh most people just fear the "responsibility" of tanking I guess

shrewd owl
#

its like 70% compared to dps iirc

#

also yeah people just go "big numbers and ez!!!!!!!!"

glossy flare
#

not realizing that dps comes with their very own set of responsibilities

pulsar escarp
#

there's also lots of dps classes to choose from so they like those too, some might find some classes more fun than others

shrewd owl
#

yeh lol

glossy flare
#

If your dmg is bad then you are making the life of the tank and healer very hard

#

especially during trash pulls

high otter
#

I've heard dragoon can somehow tank, not sure if trolling

glossy flare
#

probably the floor tank meme

#

so no

shrewd owl
#

yeah lol

high otter
#

Yes, floor tank. What does it mean

glossy flare
#

They are tanking the floor

shrewd owl
#

every dps has some sort of mitigation skill but its not tank level of defence lol

glossy flare
#

aka being dead

dire prawn
#

It means they suck at the game

#

And get hit by everything

glossy flare
#

Originally Dragoon was intended to be somewhat of an offtank, which is also why they have heavier armour

shrewd owl
#

old meme of dragoon dying to literally everything because of animation lock

glossy flare
#

But it worked uhm... not so well

#

But the meme stuck

high otter
#

So dragoons are essentially melee dps with thicker armor, than other dps

glossy flare
#

Kinda? Not that it matters

shrewd owl
#

yes but im not sure if it makes a difference tbh

high otter
#

Does it not?

glossy flare
#

These days Dragoons are just melee dps

#

period.

polar hound
#

when drg was released, its gear lacked magical resist so raidwides 1shot them, also part of floortank meme

dire prawn
#

It doesn't

glossy flare
#

DRG still has their very own set of gear though, no other job uses it. The new melee dps that comes with EW will share gear with DRG though

glossy flare
#

we dont know

dire prawn
#

We don't know

glossy flare
#

it will be revealed in a few weeks at the fanfest

polar hound
#

it will be a maiming class is all we know

glossy flare
#

We only know what the new healer is so far

#

Sage

high otter
#

I see. Well, I'm in love with polearms, so no way I'm switching to another dps class. From what I've heard, there are no unplayable jobs, so everything works well

dire prawn
#

Yep

polar hound
#

!faq meta

zinc orbitBOT
#
How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

glossy flare
#

Dragoon is perfectly fine

#

it's just old memes from rough times

#

I haven't played RDM enough to throw myself off of something

#

But that backjump is a ridiculous distance

glossy flare
#

Don't really want to drag this into discussion but small arenas that would mean you die as RDM really annoy me

#

because it's 50 potency more than the non backflip alternative

#

small arenas are a dps loss for RDM wearycarby

gaunt grail
#

So I know sage is confirmed but why does everyone think the next dps is reaper style?

polar hound
#
  1. maiming class 2. yoshi wore two different shirts with skeletons w/scythes, speculation

Also there was an NPC in ShB that used a Scythe

#

it's just speculation though

we don't know for sure

There's never one crafting class which pertains to one combat class.

Any Eureka experts? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I need to unlock more logos to upgrade my weapon (currently Pyros +2). All sites I've gone to says that 2 x Featherfoot L becomes Swift L when combined. But when I do it, I just get another Featherfoot L because of the duplicate actions.

I only have 2 logos slots atm.

EDIT: I found the answer, I had to put them in the right side array to combine D:

jolly sorrel
#

South of the opposite add which they can't attack... hold on, let me process this for a bit D:...

#

So if I -can- attack the fire add, I grab the ice tether, and run south of the ice add?

Each side is completely separate in terms of what they make. So the logos on the left side don’t influence the right side, except for success rate when using more than 4 mnemes.

Hi, I have a quick question: I am lvl 31 with a pole master and I would like to become a dragon knight but the NPC (Ywain) no longer gives me a quest after Courage versus Recklessness. Could someone tell me how to get the quest to become a dragon knight please :)?

How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

#

probably missing the lvl 20 msq

#

As a general rule: msq locks everything in this game

#

prioritize story

tepid terrace
#

But i'm lvl 31 and my story quest is lvl 17 , yet I do only that :/

glossy flare
#

You are probably on a preferred world

#

Which comes with an xp boost that is quite strong. So outleveling your msq is not uncommon

#

Might wanna think about picking up another class to sink that xp into 🙂

tepid terrace
#

Ok ok , i will do that

#

Thx a lot for your help 🙂

Doing Hadex Ex, my party has issues with the meteor tethers. As a healer I dont get them so I'm not quite sure how the whole mechanic goes-- where should the DPS be running to avoid cleaving the tanks?

Hey guys, planning to start playing the game and I read the beginning is very slow. Up to which level is this going to be slow paced?

high otter
#

I have it unlocked, why he refuses to give me next quest? Or should I finish Bowl HM first?

warped nest
#

Yes

#

Do bowl of ember hard

Also I play both wow and eso, so I'll be compapri g the pace to both tbf.

earnest wraith
#

Just sell nq

warped nest
#

@tight widget compare this to single player rpg

#

Because it is a FF game with MMO elements

tight widget
#

OK.. I never played FF before so its kind of a first for me..

warped nest

You get to the more important story stuff by lvl 25-30

hi, i would like to buy an adventure tale for my dark mage but first i would like to know if by doing so i will get the lvl 50 and 70 job outfits in the purchase?
if not is it possible to get them after purchasing the adventure tale?
thank you in advance.
PS: sorry for my Bad english 😅

warped nest
#

Black Mage or Dark Knight?

earnest wraith

#

@obtuse tendon you will only get the lvl 70 stuff, but you can go and acquire other things in game

tight widget
warped nest
#

My answer still holds

jolly sorrel
#

Most guides just say "dont aim it at the tank lol", which feels like it shouldn't be too hard. But I don't know what to advice the dps, and it's been wiping us for 50 minutes straight.

warped nest
#

It is a single player JRPG first

#

With MMO stuff sprinkled on top

tight widget
#

OK cool.

warped nest
#

I cannot make any comparison with wow or eso as I am not familiar with those

#

But the general consensus on XIV pacing is what I relay to you just now

pulsar escarp
#

guides are probably saying ‘aim away from tanks’ because it should be that easy

jolly sorrel
#

Well, it -is- just a practice party, I'll put up with it. Thank you.

pulsar escarp
#

Yeah, it’s fair

tight widget
#

I'll do the trial then. Never played a jrpg neither so it's like trying both at one go then :)

warped nest
#

Most ex guide also assumes that the players have some a few EX trials

pulsar escarp
#

I guess a good policy is just never stop it in front of a meteor that a tank is actively going to stop at

warped nest
#

So they expect the players to know the basics, like bait AOE before you move into safe spot, or spread the circle/cone AOE

pulsar escarp
#

Yeah, hades was my first EX but I tanked it

#

which is straightforward enough

warped nest
#

@tight widget have fun

honest anvil
#

Is their a tier list for tank duos?

warped nest
#

Dont think so

glossy flare
#

There's dps statistics for all tank duos on fflogs I think

#

but that's just one part of the equation I guess

Using both of these give you 88 more CP

@frozen girder

warped nest

Assuming you have enough CP to cap the bonus from these two items

obsidian patio
#

You need very little CP to cap out the benefits. The Chili Crab only needs about 280 CP and the Syrup only needs about 270

warped nest

Oh, wow, that's very generous

hey, sorry if this seems stupid, I am new to the game, only been playing about a week, I am stuck on a quest "The World of Darkness", it says to join in through the duty finder but I can't seem to find a group for it, is there any way around this quest?

obsidian patio
#

nope, you have to complete the duty

#

Seeing as you're on a JP datacenter based on your role, is your duty finder searching for JP players?

warped nest
#

And do you try to queue during high traffic hours

#

Which is around now

humble mica
#

Yeah, but I live in Australia so similar timezones

warped nest
#

👌

#

Then you just need to wait for match making to get you covered

#

Ummm, if it is worth anything

humble mica
#

the issue is that I have had the quest for 2 days now which is really frustrating

warped nest
#

Dps might be able to get a slightly faster queue with alliance raid

humble mica
#

I am DPS, playing Dragoon, started leveling Conjurer but got up to some quests that I needed to leave the duty finder for

obsidian patio
#

Not much you can really do besides have DF search for all languages and wait

warped nest
#

Correct me if I am wrong, daily reset happen on the same moment across the globe right?

humble mica
#

how do I know if I am searching for all languages?

warped nest
#

On the top of your Duty finder

#

Do you see the letters JEDF?

humble mica
#

oh, thank you

warped nest
#

Daily reset is in 3 hours

#

Maybe you will get faster queue then, when everyone is trying to do their daily roulette

humble mica
#

didn't realize there was a language thing, it cut down the estimated time to something reasonable, thankyou

warped nest
#

Good luck and have fun

I don't remember where they are, but there are a bunch of boats you can fly to and land on

@prime flume you never grab multiple enemies at the same time

gritty oracle
# prime flume where do i get potions i keep getting rekt :/

Your gear might be a big problem. It should roughly match your level up until lv50. You should also get a chocobo companion to heal you when you reach lv30. But to answer your question, every major city has a shop district, and a NPC titled Apothecary there.

warped nest

You cannot chug potion to tank enemy attacks either

When you did your lvl 50 job quest

Did you not get a coffer?

Your level 50 job quest gives ilvl 90 left side in a coffer

gritty oracle

order is weapon (from the right side girl) > body > pants > hat/glove/boots > accessories

warped nest

It contains a few item level 90 equipment

prime flume
#

i dont think i did my lvl 50 job quest

crystal bluff
#

Or any of the splendor vendors in the 3 main towns

warped nest
#

Do your job quest, put on those i90 gear

#

Then buy some ironwork gears to replace your low item level stuff

#

To check the item level of your equipment

#

Hover over them

#

And look for a slightly flat ITEM LEVEL

ok ill do that thank you all 😄

Yesterday I bought a mount from mog station and today I created a character in Bahamut. I saw the mail icon there and talked to the delivery moogle, saw the mail with teh mount item but didn't take it. My main is in Omega and I wanted the mount there. Did I fuck up? 😒

which mount was it

shell geyser
#

Cloud's bike

shrewd owl
#

pretty sure thats account wide

warped nest
#

That's for all characters

shell geyser
#

yes but in mog station it said something about being for a single character use only or something?

warped nest
#

If it is a single use

#

Then it would have asked you which character you want to send that mount to

jolly sorrel
#

At which upgrade does the skysteel gathering tool become better than Landsaints?

There's no way to buy a single-character mount yesterday, and then send it to a new character you made today

stats besides those don't matter for retainers

like perception for the gatherers, or main stats for combat classes
