Oh wait you're in japan, yeah, use PF to learn

fading aurora
#

@finite topaz ah so like doing class ones but for the company one

vital ruin
#

Alrighty

fading aurora
#

Gotcha

#

Thank you

#

What other options are there apart from dungeons and msq to gain xp?

short jasper
#

And yeah, extremes really are easy once you know them, so don't sweat it feeling hard at first.

@jade quartz which hunt log do I do for the massive xp

jade quartz
#

There’s one hunt log per class.

#

It’s only really worth it up to about level 20.

#

Press H by default to open your hunting log

finite topaz
lethal bison
#

how to i unlock the mentor roulette? i finally got NN enabled but dont see it in my duty

finite topaz
#

After lvl 15, hunt logs lose value

lethal bison
#

trade mentor

finite topaz
#

No mentor roulette for you

#

Have to be combat mentor

lethal bison
#

thats homophobic lol T_T

jade quartz
lethal bison
#

getting 1500 comms is impossible lol

open ember
#

not really

#

done it on 2 characters

#

just be healer or tank

boreal storm
#

And if all else fails, beg

jade quartz
#

Don’t do that.

open ember
#

no

#

that means people wont give you any

jade quartz
#

Likely to have the completely opposite effect.

remote lintel
#

i main healer and i still dont have even 1k comms pensivewobble

short jasper
#

Got all mine dpsing

remote lintel
#

perhaps i should actually wait for the newbies to finish their cutscenes before leaving

remote lintel
#

i always forget lmao

warped nest
#

Despite their in game reputation

#

Mentors are supposed to help people

#

It is not something you get to lord over other players

manic needle
#

Anyone using 4k resolution here? Did the FPS become worst after last week maintenance for you guys?

obsidian patio
#

Seems fine to me on PS5

pearl mesa
#

Is Eureka a good way to grind 60-70 like I've heard Bozja is a good way to grind 70-80?

obsidian patio
#

No, Eureka does not give any outside experience.

jade quartz
#

No

pearl mesa
#

Okay. FATEs for various memories it is, probably.

jade quartz
#

The equivalent for 61–70 is Heaven-on-High, Stormblood‘s Deep Dungeon

warped nest
#

Further clarification

pearl mesa
#

I never unlocked it because I couldn't get far enough in Palace of the Dead.

warped nest
#

Dungeons will always be the best choice for grinding levels

#

Just that Dps don't have good queue time

#

If you are a tank/healer, or has a friend who is one

pearl mesa
#

I'm playing tank, I just get bored running dungeons over and over.

warped nest
#

Go for dungeons

#

Ahhh, fair

pearl mesa
#

I do roulette, though.

jade quartz
#

FATE exp is pretty poor, be aware

#

The grind is painful

pearl mesa
#

The parts that are available at LV60.

warped nest
#

Lvl 50/60 roulette is crap for exp

#

They are meant for poetics

jade quartz
#

The good exp roulettes are leveling, Alliance raid, main scenario and frontline

#

And trials since it’s so short

pearl mesa
#

Yeah, but the rest of them often have the "adventurer in need" bonus so I do them too.

warped nest
#

Raid and trial are okay for exp, I do them when I needed just a bit more to level up

jade quartz
#

Adventurer in need bonus isn’t really very good exp

warped nest
#

You get more exp from doing fate

#

Than adventurer in need

pearl mesa
#

I have no other real use for those roulette sections, so if they have the need bonus I do them too. I figure it can't hurt anything.

warped nest
#

That's fine

So I’m lvl 50 and I just wanted to start levelling the cnj but it starts off at lvl 1, what’s the fastest way to lvl them

Hunting log until level 15, then spam dungeons

Sectioned off by levels and patches

hollow briar

Spamming them until I get to Heavensward

#

At these lil bs tedious ones

#

That give like...4800xp

#

63 msq's until Heavensward. Hiyahhhh

remote lintel
#

50 was the lvl cap which is why they give so little xp

pallid bluff
#

is there a "home-like" place for free trial players?

finite topaz
pallid bluff
#

where's that?

obsidian patio
#

They’re found in the city-states and marked on the map with a bed icon

flint kernel
#

is it normal to wait more than 20min as a healer for grand cosmos ?

finite topaz
devout crystal
#

Do I need to complete ARR MSQ for the warrior Fell cleve skill quest?

#

I am level 56 already

#

I only got up to the skill infuriate

obsidian patio
#

Yes

finite topaz
#

It should come from job quests

#

post 50 job quests are unlocked after completing ARR

devout crystal
#

I see. Thank you.

finite topaz
devout crystal
#

I see. Thx

pallid bluff
#

what are those dots in the lower right corner

obsidian patio
#

Picture?

devout crystal
#

Inventory??

agile laurel
#

menus, probably.

#

but like, need more than that to guess.

vernal urchin
#

if it's the little blue and green dots, that's your inventory grid

flint zinc
#

Hey I just completed the main quests for the first part ( f2p i can fly now ) how comes the new main quests give barely any xp?

remote lintel
#

because level 51 didnt exist at that time

#

youre working through old content

#

so there was no reason to give exp since 50 was the cap

flint zinc
#

Ahhhhhh that makes sense, its a shame they havent changed it

#

time to grind levels the old fashioned way

remote lintel
#

if they changed it then it would screw up all other expansions

#

HW starts at 50

flint zinc
#

Ohhhhh kk that actually makes sense

#

that is unlucky in hindsight

solar cedar
#

Hello! Im playing Dragoon. Which accesories are best for me from Shire set? Custodian, pankratiast or conservator?

remote lintel
#

each expansion has a pattern of adding 10 levels > bunch of patch quests at level cap > next expansion adds 10 more levels > bunch of patch quests > etc

slate arrow
#

the ones with strength that isn't custodian

#

since more than a few of them have tenacity which is useless on a dragoon

fading aurora
#

Do you only get 1 free fantasia potion throughout the questing?

slate arrow
#

only from completing The Ultimate Weapon but yes

remote lintel
#

yes

solar cedar
#

Custodian(str+vit+critical+direct hit) , pankratiast (str+vit+critical+ determination)

#

So pankratiast is best?

flint zinc
#

Ty for all the help : )

fading aurora
#

@slate arrow having to spend 10$ to change your height kinda sucks lol

#

They need to make them tradable

remote lintel
#

make an alt so you get the height right

#

or use crime tools

slate arrow
fading aurora
#

I'm not starting again @remote lintel

#

Unless all your levels transfer

#

Lol

remote lintel
#

you dont use the alt

#

you make an alt to see the height

#

then fanta your main

fading aurora
#

I already used the fantasia ages ago to change race and thought I wanted to be really tall but now I Wana be short

remote lintel
#

welp

#

such is life

flint zinc
#

leaden ginkgo
#

if you have an alt, can you copy your UI layout easily to the alt from a main? or do you have to do it manually

slate arrow
#

you can copy the Hud Files in your documents

#

There's also plugins on XIVLauncher which can automate this for you

leaden ginkgo
#

Hey. Is it possible to do maps with a person in cross-world party on another world?
I know cross-world parties have some weird things considering nut hunt trains. Apparently your emnity is not being added to the people you're partied with and you end up getting the lowest amount of nuts? So I was wondering if it has any restrictions for maps.

fresh lodge
#

You can just have everyone come to the same world and make a regular party

leaden ginkgo
#

Me and my friend on different worlds, would regular party work?

#

If I come to his world

tawdry citrus
#

anyone know why i can't find my lvl 52 job quest? im a WHM and its not showing anywhere

#

its supposed to be called, A journey of purification

leaden ginkgo
#

Have u finishes msq?

tawdry citrus
#

i finished all the ARR ones

remote lintel
#

you need to get to HW to unlock the 50-60 job quests

robust crow
#

you specifically need to enter ishgard

tawdry citrus
#

ohhhh

robust crow
#

before you can unlock the 50-60

tawdry citrus
#

okay ty guys (:

remote lintel
#

job quests are tied to expansions

robust crow
#

entering ishgard is the very start of HW

tawdry citrus
#

makes more sense now lol, was losing my mind

olive dagger
#

Where can you learn to be astrologist class thingy

slate arrow
#

When you get to ishgard

olive dagger
#

Will the main quests get me there

shrewd owl
#

yes

#

what quest are you at right now

olive dagger
#

I just beat the base game I believe

#

Hit lvl 51

shrewd owl
#

ya u just gotta do the post-ARR questline to get to ishgard

olive dagger
#

Oh ok cool thanks

fading aurora
#

Are there any ways to get a black or white carbuncle? Or are they only for NPCs in story

glossy flare
#

No way

fading aurora
#

I wonder if they are hints to future summoner pets

glossy flare
#

More egi glamours are high on the list of many smn players' wishes

shrewd owl
#

they'd probably just be egi glamours

#

whenever that comes

fading aurora
#

Is there a way to make view distance longer? So bushes don't pop in randomly

shrewd owl
#

pretty sure there's a graphics option to turn off LODs

#

but idk about view distance

fading aurora
#

I have that disabled and it makes no difference

shrewd owl
#

damn

thorn thicket
#

Have we gotten a rough ETA for 5.55 by chance?

obsidian patio
#

late may

thorn thicket
#

Like did they say it would be out by the fanfest or after?

obsidian patio
#

after, most likely

thorn thicket
#

Ah, thanks

obsidian patio
#

since fanfest is smack dab in the middle of may

thorn thicket
#

Yep, just under 2 weeks 😄

vital ruin
#

Why's there queue time in world visit

leaden ginkgo
#

If I buy the starter edition on PS4 how much would it cost to upgrade to Shadowbringers collector’s?

thorn thicket
vital ruin
#

Missed the mark cos of the queue MiqoteDepressed

upper cove
#

@leaden ginkgo I cant seem to see the price of shadowbringers in psn

leaden ginkgo
#

Its $40 on the PSN but that’s not collectors

agile laurel
vital ruin
#

Ya

leaden ginkgo
#

The Collector’s edition is $60 but that’s with everything not just an upgrade

#

Can you get EB glams,without doing one?

glossy flare
#

No

#

only related thing you can get are the best man and bridesmaid sets

rancid gull
#

is Ninja complicated to play?

#

or is their rotation okay to learn

glossy flare
#

it's not more or less complicated than some other jobs

agile laurel
#

ninja is kind of a piano once a minute, and very simple outside of that

glossy flare
#

just gotta remember the mudra combinations, which are easy once you have it down

agile laurel
#

but once learned, it's not very difficult to replicate

#

execution is another matter but that's the case for every job

midnight tinsel
#

so out of pld whm and mnk who should i do the main quest with ( for exp) who has the worst time leveling

crystal bluff
#

If you want fast queue times for the mandatory dungeons, pld or whm

midnight tinsel
#

im levleing them all at the same time anyway

glossy flare
#

dps in general have the "worst" time leveling

upper cove
#

Is mogststion under maintenance currently? Couldn't find the news about it

glossy flare
#

because technically the fastest way is via dungeons but their queue times suck

glossy flare
midnight tinsel
#

kk thx

upper cove
#

It shows the maintenance notice when I'm trying to checkout my item @glossy flare

#

Sorry this is my first time trying to buy something

glossy flare
#

odd, there really was no announcement for something like that

upper cove
#

Thats what I thought too, just wanted to confirm there's nothing wrong from my end

#

I was logged in already, and when I was about to select payment method; j was told to log in again and it showed this

rancid gull
#

it happens sometimes

#

just give it a small bit

upper cove
#

Yea I figured. Been getting different errors at different steps. Thanks!

swift pasture
#

aside from lower exp/shorter time duration, is there more difference to field exploration and quick exploration? like which one gives more rare items, higher quality items etc

storm kelp
#

guys, can you tell me what raid i havent unlock?

#

not sure what to search for on google

#

i see lock stuff in party raider finder

glossy flare
#

the whole Eden's promise series

storm kelp
#

ok i am a quest where i see the black girl introduced in patch 5.3/5.4

rancid gull
#

can you get a wardrobe in your house?

storm kelp
#

should be on the right path. thanks!

vital ruin
#

Why do I see some people standard/technical finish before engaging boss
Isn't that like a huge dps loss

agile laurel
rancid gull
#

the only place to setup glamours is in an inn?

hollow briar
#

DRK stat priority/focus?

#

Also GNB stat priority/focus?

glossy flare
#

crit > sks to tier > DH > DET

#

same for both

glossy flare
obsidian patio
#

there is no glamour dresser furniture.

#

only places with the dresser are inn rooms and the GC squadron rooms

glossy flare
#

huh, I always assumed there was an item

#

my bad then

leaden ginkgo
#

do u need anima relic equipped while farming light,or can u swtich before the end

analog gate
#

you need it equipped for the last boss of the instance iirc

jade quartz
#

I don't recommend it, though. You'll just end up forgetting to do it more than once

#

plus the best farm method is to do something like A9S unsynced, which doesn't offer you an opportunity to swap.

raven star
#

Anyone know how the butterfingers promotion works? I know it starts in 6 hours but do you just buy it off the shelves or fro the site?

leaden ginkgo
#

can u get light from hw extremes

jade quartz
#

that's the go-to

obsidian patio
#

Anima light is obtained from basically all level 50-60 content

jade quartz
#

it's a faceroll unsynced, there are no mechanics to do

#

Get a light farm party going on the PF

#

You'll finish your light farming step in under two hours

obsidian patio
#

but we won't know for sure until then

raven star
#

Ok thanks!

gritty oracle
#

How exactly does switching relics mid-book step work? Can I finish my current DRG book, and then put the whole thing on the backburner to do my sch books?

obsidian patio
#

IIRC, you need to finish a book completely and then talk to the NPC again as the other job with the relic equipped

gritty oracle
#

ah ty!

rancid gull
#

can you obtain any of the makai stuff anymore?

#

like the scholar book?

#

I know they updated the casino for the invisible shield on PLD

#

but, if you missed the promotion for the PvP event, is there anyway to obtain any of these things again?

swift pasture
#

nope, i dont think so

rancid gull
#

trying to find a scholar book that looks military or tech like

#

they all look like the same dribble you've been reading for years in pre school

gritty oracle
glossy flare
#

the Scaevan book looks kinda techy and is fairly easy to get

gritty oracle
#

Also the Law's Order codex looks pretty unique and military-y. And there's a glowy version.

jade quartz
#

there's Lost Allagan

rancid gull
#

is law and order a relic step?

glossy flare
#

yes

jade quartz
#

yes, current level 80 relic

glossy flare
#

it's the current last step until 5.55

pine onyx
#

How do I start a duty once I get all the party members I need/want with the party finder?

glossy flare
#

close the pf ad and queue normally via duty finder

pine onyx
#

Gotcha

#

Can I start with less people than needed?

glossy flare
#

if you turn on the undersized party option in the duty finder settings, yes

#

little cogwheel icon in the top left of the duty finder

jade quartz
#

Or you can queue with the incomplete party you have and use the duty finder matchmaking

#

to fill the rest

gritty oracle
#

How does stunning the magitek colossus in Meri work? I stunned it at 85%, it was stunned from 85-70%, and still got the vuln down.

jade quartz
#

meri?

gritty oracle
#

Meridianum

jade quartz
#

There's nothing you have to stun in there

#

oh right there is a skip strat

#

or there was

#

I thought that was long patched out

gritty oracle
#

I swear I saw it happen just a couple weeks ago. But I can never do it right.

jade quartz
#

Oh no it was that people used stuns indiscriminately because they were attached to damage

#

so it always became stun immune and then you couldn't do it

#

so it must still exist

#

the window is very small though

gritty oracle
#

I heard that if it's stunned at 80%, it won't vuln down. But I just tried it and no bueno.

jade quartz
#

You can do it right as the adds appear, like frame-perfect

#

I'm seeing people on reddit say 82-83%

#

and about 65% for the second time

pine onyx
#

Alright used the party finder and a bunch of level 80 joined

#

They unsynchronized the fight or something and the boss was down in 2 secs

#

Glad to be done with that

jolly sorrel
#

I can confirm the stun still works, but there's no tell for it I think.

#

If the Colossus is stunned while the purple 'link' lines appear, the invulnerability buff isn't applied.

agile laurel
#

d'you need an upgraded anemos weapon to continue with that weapon into the next step?

#

or is that just for armour

gritty oracle
#

Anemos is one of the first steps into the relic, so yes, you need to go further for upgrades. That being said, you can just do Eureka without ever touching your relic.

agile laurel
#

right. debated going for an elemental weapon but if I have to start at scratch then i'll probably find something better to do

Anemos weapons are also pretty easy to get
Pagos however....

#

How long will it take me to get 2.5 mil gil with a small house gardening? (to cover the cost of the house)

#

still at heavensward expansion

vital ruin
#

Ehh idk but to make some decent gil you'd need to
Unlock diadem
Do firmament crafts
Do fetes
Buy stuffs from different servers for cheap and sell for more in your server
Level up crafter's and gatherers
I don't think you have good gil making opportunities in heaven'sward

warped nest
#

Collect and sell effervescent water

#

And silver ore

#

They are used even in lvl 60+ recipes

vital ruin
#

Oh and last but not least get lucky

#

I think I got an orchestron scroll in HW that sold for 800k
Don't remember which it was tho

#

Fetes might be one of the fastest method for you rn
Since with the fete rewards you can buy dyes which sell quite well
And you can also get rare items like general purpose dyes which sell for like 240k+

Hi all, does anyone know if the subscription can be paid through steam, or does it have to be done through SE's site?

glossy flare
#

You can use your steam wallet for sub payments, yes

#

assuming you also own the game via steam

stark shore
#

I'm on the standalone trial, but because I'm in Japan, I couldn't get it to work with a NA/EU account

#

I think I can buy the game on steam, and use my standalone trial account through steam, and pay the subscriptions with steam wallet? Is that right?

glossy flare
#

If you're still on the trial you can use any platform, but buying the game anywhere locks you permanently to that platform

#

So once on steam, always on steam for example

#

Gotta buy all future expansion on steam as well

stark shore
#

Okay, that's awesome, I just don't want to go through the JP payment system

#

Thanks!

marble nimbus
#

Where do I find crafter specialist actions?

vital ruin
#

Best way of farming tomestones of revelation?

jovial tide
#

What's the potency difference between melee and ranged LB?

marble nimbus
#

9k vs 6150

oak ice
#

Don't remember the exact numbers, but caster is a bit stronger than ranged, and both win over melee in damage if you hit 2 targets

leaden ginkgo
#

Does anyone know when the last bit of 5.5 is being released?

oak ice
#

Mid may

leaden ginkgo
#

okie dokie, thank you 🙂

stark shore
#

Ah, it says I cannot use my steam product key with my existing SE account because the region is different

oak ice
stark shore
#

Am I going to have to remake my character etc just to change the language from Japanese to English?

oak ice
marble nimbus
glossy flare
primal ermine
#

Do hunt trains as well for revelations

stark shore
#

To clarify, the client is in English, but all the account management stuff (including payments) is in Japanese

glossy flare
#

afaik we don't know exact potencies of LBs

stark shore
#

There's no language options on the site to change it from JP to EN

glossy flare
#

since they follow their own rules

vital ruin
#

Okay so hunts trains I can't do on the PS4
Expert roulettes I didn't unlock
So I don't think I can get cryptlurker set
So do I just get augmented exhalchic

leaden ginkgo
#

So, tried the retainer trick to get housing bots to buy my items but it seems they targeted my retainer but didn't purchase anything, even though I had it where others could see what was for sale on them

#

Is there anything I'm missing to make this work?

twilit arch

# vital ruin Okay so hunts trains I can't do on the PS4 Expert roulettes I didn't unlock So I...
  1. Why can't you do hunt trains on PS4?
  2. You should unlock EX roulette, it's not that hard, just do the MSQ and make sure you've also unlocked The Twinning and Akadaemia Anyder.
  3. You can get the Cryptlurker set without either of those things, it's just more of a grind because you have to go for significantly lesser volumes of tomestones by doing Eden, NieR, and specifically queued level 80 dungeons.
  4. You can, but why?
open coral
mental oracle
#

oh..yea I mean they shouldn't be.. I can't have 2 of those now

open coral
#

What shouldn't be? What can't you have two of?

#

I'm confused.

mental oracle
open coral
#

Poetics rings were made non-unique because the unaugmented versions no longer exist. The ring you're trying to buy is not the same.

#

Why would you want two?

twilit arch
#

also to help smooth out the gearing process while at 50/60/70

#

there's a chance they may change that ring later, but for now...there's not much reason to

#

because generally people aren't going to be going out of their way to get it

mental oracle
twilit arch
#

that's a moot point

open coral
#

Considering that that's old gear, it's really not relevant what their secondary stats are.

twilit arch
#

secondary stats aren't significant enough to warrant you caring that much about them, esp while leveling

those sorts of stats don't super matter since it's old cap gear

mental oracle
#

true

open coral
#

Secondary stats don't really matter until max level.

heavy wadi
#

for leveling it's just upgrading ilvl, you don't worry abt it until current content.

solemn plume
#

had a question about the relic weapons, are they worth going for right at level 50?

open coral
#

No.

heady lily
#

can you get the fashion report prize twice? as in if i were to get 80 points first then 100 points could i get an additional 60k ?

vital ruin
#

When ever I join a hunt train,

  1. the monster is already dead
  2. The party finder party has gear stat requirement 999
  3. Invisible target
  4. If it's a crossword train lol I wish I could join
  5. I'm in JP server most of the times I shout I don't get invites
  6. People delete monster the moment it spawns doesn't wait for anyone
    If I'm very lucky I'll get invites and people might wait like 30 seconds before they delete the monster
    So I'm left with augmented exhalchic
    Is aug exhalchic good? How much revelation do you get from expert?
open coral
#

Old relic weapons are just work-intensive glamour.

thanks for the advice, i thought it might just be older content

solemn plume
#

but I thought "maybe you can upgrade it to higher ilvl as you go on"

glossy flare
#

you can, but as soon as you enter a new expansion it will be outclassed

#

relics are, fully upgraded, always the best weapon of a given expansion

solemn plume
#

makes sense, i'll probably just do it one day for the completionist aspect

#

wait so there are multiple relic weapons?

glossy flare
#

each expansion has its relics, yes

#

for example Shadowbringers gets the last relic steps in just a few weeks

solemn plume
#

oooh

#

and that

#

*that's the best weapon period?

glossy flare
#

only fully upgraded

#

which doesn't happen until the very end of an expansion

#

before the last step is released it is always slightly worse than the actual best weapons

heady lily
#

can you get the fashion report prize twice? as in if i were to get 80 points first then 100 points could i get an additional 60k ?

glossy flare
#

which usually come from savage raids

solemn plume
#

I see I see

solemn plume
#

oh right I was also wondering, do raids work like they do in WoW? where you can only do the "real" raids in premade groups?

heady lily
pallid bluff
#

should i get a team before doing the magicked blade?

glossy flare
#

the more challenging difficulty, savage, is best attempted with a premade group

dense ermine
#

i mean you could duty finder savage

glossy flare
#

alliance raids however are casual content, as are normal mode raids

dense ermine
#

no one is on it tho

heavy wadi
#

no one does duty finder savage

open coral
#

@vital ruin Augmented exarchic isn't bad, it's just that the tomestone gear is better. You currently get 40 revelation tomestones from your first Expert roulette per day, plus whatever the instance reward is. You can, if you do all roulettes including Expert and 80 roulette (but not 50/60/70 or guildhest) with a level 80 job, get 240 roulette bonus tomestones of revelation per day, with a weekly cap of 450.

dense ermine
#

outside of JP true

solemn plume
#

thanks for the info

heavy wadi
#

raids are 8man, alliance raids 24man

solemn plume
#

fun game so far.. I'm glad I got back into it after they reduced the grind to heavensward

open coral
#

Without those two roulettes, subtract 55 from the daily bonus.

dense ermine
#

the raids are very different to wow

#

there are no hp thresold mechanics

leaden ginkgo
#

Hi hi ! I just bought an outfit for my character on the web ffxiv shop. I still have not received it, how much time does it usually takes ?

dense ermine
#

everything is exactly the same every pull

#

to the second

glossy flare
open coral
solemn plume
vital ruin
#

Lmao I'll pass on aug crypt and get aug exhalchic

#

Should I get all accessories first or gear

dense ermine
#

it means that depending on speed of the dps you could push phases out entirely

fresh lodge
#

Gear

open coral
#

I you want to spend your gil that way, that's your choice. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

vital ruin
#

Oh

dense ermine
#

and skip certain mechanics during the fight

#

the fight isnt on a predetermined script

#

its a conditional one

vital ruin
#

Exarchic is pretty cheap

solemn plume
#

ohhh

glossy flare
vital ruin
#

Ahh thanks

#

Also why that rule?

open coral
#

Because of the stats.

leaden ginkgo
#

Thanks alot @glossy flare and @open coral

vital ruin
#

Ohh

glossy flare
#

oh and weapon before everything

#

weapon is always the biggest impact

vital ruin
#

I'll get the gear first so I'll have that over all the job and get weapon later ig

dense ermine
#

belt has same stat weight as accessories

#

tbh im glad theyre removing belts next expansion

#

they serve literally no purpose

vital ruin
#

Tru

#

Also were getting more space for weapon and rings

#

That was necessary

open coral
vital ruin
#

Is eden the raids for Shb

glossy flare
#

yup

vital ruin
#

How long is it no spoilers

dense ermine
#

the 8 man raid yea

glossy flare
#

12 parts, as always

dense ermine
#

its 12 fights

glossy flare
#

4 per series

dense ermine
#

well, 13

vital ruin
#

I c

dense ermine
#

13th boss is savage locked

vital ruin
#

I c

heavy wadi
#

it's just 12 bosses. final boss of each set of 4 has a separate phase in savage.

dense ermine
#

shame its not on normal cos its a really cool fight

vital ruin
#

I unlocked twinning
Is it among the expert dungeons

glossy flare
#

it's in lvl 80 roulette

open coral
#

Twinning is in 80 roulette.

dense ermine
#

e12s is legit 2 bosses

glossy flare
#

but not in expert roulette

dense ermine
#

theres a checkpoint

vital ruin
#

I c

dense ermine
#

unlike e4 and e8

glossy flare
#

expert is relict and paglthan currently

honest anvil
#

Expert has only 2 options

glossy flare
#

(or however you spell that)

open coral
#

E12S is one boss.

dense ermine
#

nope

open coral
#

Just because there's a checkpoint doesn't mean it's two.

#

That's not how it works.

dense ermine
#

its literally two different bosses

twilit arch
#

not the place to argue about it

dense ermine
#

even fflogs has it as two seperate fights

open coral
#

Fair, Kael

twilit arch
#

its 12 floors per raid series, with coil being the exception

dense ermine
#

yea 12 instances

slate arrow
#

It's the same instance, but because there's a checkpoint FFLogs logs it as a seperate fight

#

And no sane person tries to clear it on the first go anyways

vital ruin
#

Can I convert Poetics/allegory> revelation

slate arrow
#

no

open coral
#

No

vital ruin
open coral
#

That would make it way too easy to obtain tomestones.

#

*Current tomestones.

heavy wadi
#

just do your roulettes weekly, a run of pagl or two and you'll make cap

vital ruin
#

But without trains it's way too grindy for me MiqoteDepressed

dense ermine
#

5 days of expert is all u need

open coral
#

You literally only have to do two days of roulettes.

dense ermine
#

90 tomes a day

#

15mins a day for 5 days

#

and ur capped

#

ridiculously easy

vital ruin
#

I c

open coral
#

It's really not hard to cap weekly tomestones.

primal ermine
#

Does JP not have a hunt discord?

dense ermine
#

they probably do

vital ruin
#

They do

#

But I have a PS4

dense ermine
#

but its most likely private

#

or invite only

robust notch
#

Will the next Relic Weapon steps come out in 5.51 or 5.55? I can't remember

heavy wadi
#

5.55

#

there isn't a 5.51, as far as we know

robust notch
#

Oh okay 😮

slate arrow
#

5.51 was for when Dragonsong Ultimate was going to come out before the delays fwiw

robust notch
#

Oh I see

#

I haven't been paying attention much the past few months since I took a break

#

So I think I missed the last 1 or 2 liveletters

#

But thank you!

primal ermine
#

Will the relic be bis for this expac?

obsidian patio
#

yes

#

Relics always end up as the BiS weapons for their expansion due to customized stats and having more overall stats in comparison to normal weapons of the same item level

#

They just don't become BiS until the very end when their item level finally catches up

primal ermine
#

Everything about the end of a expac and going into a new one is new to me

devout lichen
#

what can I do to get enough item level for amaurot

#

I need 410 and I'm only like 398

open coral
devout lichen
#

does that take long

slate arrow
#

It's literally free

open coral
#

It takes like 5 seconds.

slate arrow
#

The game tells you this

devout lichen
#

oh

open coral
#

Literally just talk to him and he'll give it to you.

primal ermine
#

Have you done your role quests?

obsidian patio
#

they already have at this point

open coral
#

If he's at Amaurot then he has.

#

Amaurot is after that.

devout lichen
#

yeah, I think I didn't read the text fully

jade quartz
open coral
#

If getting your class gear doesn't give you enough ilevel, you can always buy some accessories off the MB to replace your lowest level ones.

devout lichen
#

nah it's fine it got me to 413

#

where is this seemingly random meteor in amaurot coming because I must be blind

glossy flare
#

which meteor?

#

at the first boss?

solemn plume
#

are the crystal tower quests required before heavensward?

glossy flare
#

Yes, because their story is relevant later on

#

It's the only mandatory 24 man raid series

solemn plume
#

oh i should probably get that out of the way then

It also unlocks a good roulette so

that too ^

#

alliance raid roulette is nice for leveling

devout lichen

nevermind I really was just blind

void cargo
#

Which torso armor is this?

glossy flare
#

from one of the nier raids, looks like the 53 fending set?

heavy wadi
#

yorha type 53 fending I think, from puppet's bunker

slate arrow
#

53 maining, actually.

heavy wadi
#

oh right the sleeves

slate arrow

The fending set has the long sleeves

void cargo
vital ruin
#

Should I do eden raids via pf

#

Queue is like 20+ minutes

flint cloak
#

Quick question, is it possible right now to invite other people from different data centers for duties and stuff or to friend people from different data centers?

flint cloak
#

Darn.

glossy flare
vital ruin
#

I c

#

Also to unlock DR lv 80 I need to meet 4 criteria
Are those from MSQ progression

glossy flare
#

to start with Bozja you need the 5.1 story done

#

everything else is not tied to msq at all

vital ruin
#

I c

glossy flare
#

most of it is just progressing through the Bozja storyline

#

which happens naturally if you just keep increasing your resistance rank

vital ruin
#

I meant this

glossy flare
#

Oh you mean lvl 80 roulette

vital ruin
#

Yep

glossy flare
#

(DR usually refers to Delubrum Reginae, just fyi)

vital ruin
#

Ohh

glossy flare
#

Anyway, except for Twinning and Akademia Anyder all of the dungeons in it are msq dungeons

vital ruin
#

Ah I didn't unlock akademia

#

And I'm in 5.0

glossy flare
#

yeah you'll unlock the last required dungeon in 5.3

twilit arch
#

akademia anyder is unlocked in eulmore, down in the slums

vital ruin

Oh

fading aurora

Are there any face bandanas like the ones some characters have over their eyes but on their mouth?

rose oak
#

Question for ppl that are in excalibur if anything, is that server casual or am I looking at the wrong place?

pine onyx
#

People here have been really helpful

#

So casual players are definitely welcome

#

On that note, does queuing for multiple duties mean you'll play one randomly picked once you have a party?

oak ice
#

All servers are functionally the same

faint flare
#

With everything being cross server, there isn't really many specific server types

#

Just the data centre type...which are practically the same

oak ice
#

It will make a queue for every instance you queue for, and then put you in the first one that fills up

pine onyx
#

Nice

#

Suddenly so much to do once you beat vanilla MSQ

rose oak
#

The reason I ask is because I have been looking in pf for maps, and mount runs and I don't see anything.

zinc orbitBOT
rose oak
#

And I feel my fc don't do much

faint flare
#

People usually do maps in like linkshells generally as far as I've seen

rose oak
#

But finding a worthy fc is like pulling teeth

oak ice
#

Party finder is across the whole data center

rose oak
#

Yeah I have grouped with different ppl for dif servers

#

Just wondering. Since the fc tool in the website is per server and not per datacenters. And I would like a fc that do stuff inhouse and is active. Most I have see are way casual for my taste.

faint flare
#

Fcs just primarily social stuff

rose oak
#

I guess I have to take the time and go server by server

open coral
#

Nothing wrong with Excalibur as a server. It's perfectly active and functional.

rose oak
#

I mean I'm sure there are fc that do stuff in house like raid maps etc

faint flare
#

Just go ask people in the fc

#

Set stuff up if you wanna do it

oak ice
#

Maps are extremely casual content, so you can probably convince a couple FC members to join

honest anvil
#

Does pazuzu’s fate show up on mini map?

oak ice
#

You do not need to be 8 people

#

Yes, it's a little alcove on the west side of the map

rose oak
#

I will try and get something going. Ty

honest anvil
#

Anything i can do to spawn it?

oak ice
#

It has the requirement that you kill the ghosts just outside that alcove

#

And it can only spawn at night while the weather is gales

honest anvil
#

is “gales” the actual name? or are showers or typhoon(?, not sure if this is a thing..) gales too?

#

and does it have a cooldown period? >.>

jade quartz
#

The weather is called gales.

#

It doesn't have to be night for Pazuzu to actually spawn

honest anvil
#

how many feathers does it give?

#

for beating it once

faint flare
#

I believe 3 for gold?

jade quartz
#

3 for gold rating yeah

honest anvil
#

Can ast get gold ez enough? Spamming malefic from start to finish?

jade quartz
#

just be in a party

faint flare
#

Always be in a group for nms for the easy gold really

#

Don't wanna risk it

oak ice
#

Oh, right, I'm dumb, the ghosts spawn at night, Pazuzu only needs the weather

hollow violet
#

Do daily roulettes trigger off the start or end time? Eg. It's 10 minutes until daily reset, if I get into an MSQ roulette now will it count for the current daily or the one that's about to roll in

oak ice
#

When it ends

honest anvil
#

I dont suppose there’s a way to know when “gales” gonna happen? ....

oak ice
#

Or talk to the Birdwatcher in the base camp

#

Or whatever the NPC checking the weather is called

vital ruin
#

Should I go for crypt accessories

honest anvil
#

oh weather is the same for all eureka instances?

jade quartz
#

yes

honest anvil
#

Thank you all ^^

vital ruin
#

Should I go for cryptlurker accessories for summoner

high otter
#

I have a lore question from Heavensward. ||I don't understand basics of the universe. After preventing Warriors of Darkness to summon and kill Garuda, they tell that from the beginning there was no light and dark, but when they were created — they also created 10 and 3 shards? What does it mean? 13 shards? Shard is a planet? And whatever planet wins in dark vs light battle, gets consumed by the winner? So they want the darkness to win in our world, because?.. He said something like "It's gonna save our world at the cost of yours", but how? If the darkness simply turns our world into void — how will it save their home?||

#

You can answer in DM, if you like

slate arrow
#

@high otter did you finish the warriors of darkness arc

#

for e12s lions

hollow violet
#

given this channel you're about to be swamped with answers - but if not dm me in a few minutes lol

#

when do u use knockback

Much of this can be answered without giving you any further spoilers.

#

after a few sec when the arrow appear?

what do i do with dupe t rex horns? >.>

faint flare
#

Trash them

high otter

Keep doing it, it explains it more in depth a little at the end

||The thirteen shards are parallel dimensions which contain versions of this planet. Our own dimension is the Source, making a total of fourteen worlds. Hydaelyn split the shards to protect them from Zodiark--that's as much info as you currently know. Hydaelyn wants to protect the shards, but the Ascians are followers of Zodiark and want to re-join the shards. They do this using Calamities. A Calamity causes so much damage to the dimensional barrier that a shard is destroyed and consumed into our own world, the Source.||

pine onyx
#

What can you use company seals for exactly?

faint flare
#

Promotions and buying stuff

pine onyx
#

Promotions?

wintry chasm
#

yeah in your grand company

#

Ranking up

faint flare
#

To rank up

#

To hold more

leaden ginkgo
faint flare
#

And more access to stuff

jade quartz
#

||However there's another possibility that can happen to a shard: if Light and Darkness become extremely unbalanced in a shard, they can cause a Flood of Darkness or Flood of Light. Neither Hydaelyn nor Zodiark nor the Ascians want this to happen, it basically means a shard is lost and can't be used for rejoining. This is what happened to the Thirteenth shard: a Glood of Darkness caused it to become the Void, where voidsent (demons) come from.||

pine onyx
#

I see

wintry chasm
#

*glood

pine onyx
#

What do people usually buy in companies then?

faint flare
#

I love me a good glood

wintry chasm
#

Ventures, cordials, glamour prisms, etc etc list goes on Nyubola

slate arrow
high otter
#

Good thing I didn't open the spoiler xd

wintry chasm
#

Also that doesn't contradict what Lima said

jade quartz
#

but that's just additional to what I said

slate arrow
#

fair

high otter
#

By the way, can I summon other mounts into battle, other than chocobo?

wintry chasm
#

No

#

Just chocobo

faint flare
#

Only birb

high otter
#

Shame, I wanted a dragon to fight my battles

jade quartz
#

Anyway, ||the Warriors of Darkness want to cause a Calamity to rejoin their world with the Source; otherwise it will become a Light version of the Void. Their world will be destroyed and everyone will die, but that means at least everyone goes back to the Lifestream and their souls eventually get reincarnated. In their view, that's at least better than their world becoming a void. They've also been manipulated by Ascians along this path.||

There's your complete spoiler-free explanation @high otter

Is there a retainer vocate in eulmore

||But another seven have been rejoined to the Source, by the seven calamities.||

wintry chasm
#

||There will be differences of course because they have lived separately for thousands and thousands of years but they are mirror worlds sure||

pine onyx
#

About glamour, are the items gone once you use them as a skin on another piece of gear?

faint flare
#

||Well, yes but actually no. They were created a long time ago. Any calamities that has happened has been 1 shard that has been rejoined..and there has been 7 so far||

pine onyx
#

Neat

#

Where do people usually stash their glamour stuff?

jade quartz
#

||None have been destroyed by Light, but the Warriors of Darkness's world is on the brink of it.||

faint flare
#

Glamour dresser

pine onyx
#

Oh, right

#

I forgot that was a thing

high otter
faint flare
#

||our world is the source. Rejoining help them summon Zodiark, which is the bad God||

wintry chasm
#

||yeah if you wanna count the worlds, ||
||1 turned to void||
||7 rejoined||
||1 almost getting turned into a void||
||Excluding those that leaves 4 perfectly || ||healthy worlds that we know of||

jade quartz
#

And the Source.

#

||1 Source.||

#

||That's us!||

wintry chasm
jade quartz
#

||It's called the Source because it's like the "original" world in a sense, and the rest are copies that split off from it.||

wintry chasm
#

We are the cool kids

faint flare
#

OG kids? uwucarby

wintry chasm
#

||all those worlds rejoin to us||

jade quartz
#

||There are a total of 14 worlds... because this is Final Fantasy 14. The Source and 13 Shards. Minus all those that have been destroyed of course||

high otter
faint flare
#

Yes

jade quartz
#

Explained later

faint flare
#

Shadowbringers goes into depth about that

jade quartz
#

But for now you know ||that it empowers their god, Zodiark, somehow||

#

uh wait

#

to be precise

#

No, ||they don't want to destroy the Source.||

#

||They want to rejoin all the 13 shards to the Source so the world will be one again.||

faint flare
#

||Zodiark = bad, he's the dark God, opposite to Crystal mom||

jade quartz
#

||This does involve causing Calamities though, which are huge disasters that kill lots of people on the Source.||

#

||As well as the entire population of the planet in the Shard that gets rejoined by the particular Calamity.||

high otter
# jade quartz ||They want to rejoin all the 13 shards to the Source so the world will be one a...

||Yes, they mention something like "everyone will die in the process, but at least reborn later". Which again raises a question: isn't it the best thing to do? Because otherwise under our leadership light will destroy the darkness and the source will be turned into Light Void, or whatever it is. Or the source can't be destroyed this way?|| Or, again, there is an answer for that in the game, but later

wintry chasm
#

||It...kinda gets talked about????????||

faint flare
#

That's a great philosophy question

#

We'll get to that later

jade quartz
#

||Y'know it's still not 100% clear if the Source could be threatened by a Flood...||

#

But yeah you'll get into those themes.

high otter
jade quartz
#

Well at the point in the story where we're at now we've kinda passed the point where that's something we're talking about anymore

wintry chasm
faint flare
#

Again, a very large chunk of meta level stuff gets revealed or corrected in shadowbringers

jade quartz
#

But that's enough said

high otter
#

Well, thank you all very much, now I more or less understand the basics of the universe

1 is the stellaclusters

robust crow

just running and completing it means you get the stellaclusters and coin

yeah that's just not something you'd want to do anyway

#

macroing your gcds is bad news because macros can't queue and therefore have a slight delay

faint flare
#

Once you put a skill into a macro it becomes 80x worst to use

jade quartz
#

which adds up significantly over the course of a fight

random girder
#

no, just have tsubame-gaeshi right next to it on the hotbar. for example i have iaijutsu on G and tsubame on ctrl+G

#

^

jade quartz
#

and also misaligns your buffs

faint flare
#

Trying to press less buttons means you'll do less damage

#

Simple as

random girder
#

this works fine for me CheesePepe comfy
but its all subjective, do whatever works for your fingers

just dont use macros

sacred apex
#

I use a controller so macros help in some situations

faint flare
#

No it doesn't

little swift
#

yes but not in this case

faint flare
#

I fit everything on controller for all jobs fine

#

You got more space than keyboard lol

#

Each hotbar fits 16 skills...while keyboard fits like 12

little swift
#

controller isn't really a valid reason to use gcd macros, its not an inferior control implement in this game

faint flare
#

I have my iajutsu on L2 + right and tsumbae on L2 + r2 + right

jade quartz
#

Controller users don't need to use any more macros than keyboard users.

faint flare
#

Just have to press the additional trigger

jade quartz
#

They may get more use out of ground target macros

#

but that's niche and samurai has none of those

faint flare
#

even on controller I find placing ground aoes easier without

vital ruin
#

How much craftsmanship/CP/control should I have to craft HQ byakkos weapons

faint flare
#

They don't need to be Hq really cause they're just glamour weapons

little swift
#

just be lv80 and use trained eye and meet minimum craft requirements

fading aurora
#

How do you unlock more slots on exarchic gear?

vital ruin
#

I've i355 lv 80 smith I can craft NQ byakkos weapons?

heavy wadi
fading aurora
#

But people said you can penta every crafted gear

little swift
#

for normal exarchic gear the slots aren't "unlocked"

#

you get a crafter to overmeld it for you

jade quartz
#

Augmented Exarchic isn't crafted.

little swift
#

its not like there are slots you unlock oyu just jam more materia into it

faint flare
#

Normal exarchic can be overmelded, not that you would want to at this point

little swift
#

augmented exarchic isn't considered crafted since its traded for from an npc

jade quartz
#

Regular exarchic, yeah you shouldn't be bothering overmelding.

faint flare
#

You overmeld combat gear within the first weeks of raid tier

#

After that it rapidly falls off in value

little swift
vital ruin
#

Should I just craft NQ

#

But NQs sell cheaper than HQs MiqoteDepressed

heavy wadi
#

there's no real point to crafting hq when it's just for glamour

lethal mist
#

Doesn't HQ ad more stats to gear?

modest igloo
#

people just craft HQ bc they can, its just 1 extra button press for them

vital ruin
#

But if there's an item on sale say 100k and both are HQ/NQ which would you pick

faint flare
#

Not for glamour really

heavy wadi
#

the byakko weaps are just for glamour, stats don't matter

jade quartz
#

the stats don't matter, it's a glamour

fading aurora
#

How do I know who to trust with gear , because me losing 1mil gil as a new player would suck

fading aurora
#

If I trade them it

vital ruin
#

I'll undercut by idk 5k then

heavy wadi
vital ruin
#

Can you craft HQ with handking
Or do u need aesthete

modest igloo
#

the byakko weapon?

vital ruin
#

All 70 primals

#

Even byakko

faint flare
#

You just use trained eye

modest igloo
#

handking is fine yeah

faint flare
#

To Hq it

vital ruin
#

Just trained eye is guranteed HQ?

faint flare
#

!action Trained Eye

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Trained Eye** : lvl 80 CRP (250 CP) (0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases quality by 100%.

Available only on the first step. Recipe level must be at least 10 levels below yours.

jade quartz
crystal bluff
vital ruin
#

100% is guranteed HQ?

faint flare
#

Yes

vital ruin
#

Does it completely fill the meter

jade quartz
#

The instant you use gear in combat (or to craft/gather something) it becomes bound to you

faint flare
#

It fills the bar 100%

vital ruin
#

Wait

jade quartz
#

if you use gear as glamour it also becomes bound to you

vital ruin
#

Isnt that broken

heavy wadi
#

no?

jade quartz
#

and you can no longer trade it.

polar hound
#

Hardly. Read

vital ruin
#

It's just one button

faint flare
#

No cause you're guaranteed to Hq low level recepies anyway

vital ruin
#

True

heavy wadi
#

hq recipes 10 lvls or below are easy as hell to hq even without that skill

vital ruin
#

Well this gives me a lotta confidence to craft them

fading aurora
vital ruin
#

Is there any skill that refills durability

faint flare
#

You don't trade it

heavy wadi
faint flare
#

To pentameld

#

Just right click and request meld

heavy wadi
#

and again, as others have said it's pretty pointless this late into the content

Pentamelding exarchic now is saying "yes I want to waste 5mil for a tiny boost opposed to actually getting gear or using tomes to augment it"

fading aurora
#

So I grind for other gear wearing my exarchic how it is?

heavy wadi
#

yes

faint flare
#

Yes

fading aurora
#

Ok

faint flare
#

Again, you only pentameld exarchic within the first weeks of a new raid tier

heavy wadi
#

even non melded exarchic is fine for most content

faint flare
#

Where people don't have access to gear

cloud lake
#

what is one of the best sites to use for gathering nodes? I used to use ffxiv clock but it doesn't really work anymore

fading aurora
#

I spent like 2 hrs going on servers and comparing prices to get the best ones, why are some servers selling items at 5x the price?

jade quartz
#

garlandtools bell or teamcraft

fading aurora
#

One piece of legs on my server was 70k and on another it was like 350

#

350k*

heavy wadi
#

supply and demand

#

price went up after 5.5, as you can augment it now

jade quartz
#

all the lower priced ones on that server got bought.

heavy wadi
#

that's another possibility

raven star
#

With the butterfinger promotion, does it matter if the receipt says 'candy'?

sturdy agate
#

heya quick question, do I keep my starter race stats when I fantasia or no?
like if I started as an Au Ra Xaela but then I fantasia'd into a lalafell
would i still be able to have my Xaela stats? I didn't see the stats on the race screen or maybe i'm just blind

faint flare
#

No

#

Not that it matters at all

sturdy agate
#

oh yeah well

#

just making sure is all

jade quartz
#

race stats are more roleplay flavour than they are anything that affects gameplay

forest bronze
#

how long does it take to get stuff from the delivery moogle? i bought some glamour armor 10 minutes ago but before when i got my last set it came immediately

#

i even logged out

robust crow
#

just depends

faint flare
#

Varies

robust crow
#

all you can do is wait

faint flare
#

Just be patient

forest bronze
#

ahh okies, i did get the confirmation email though

jade quartz
#

Interact with the delivery moogle and click the "reward delivery request" little button at the top of the window

#

lets the system know "hey I'm online right now please prioritise me over people who aren't"

forest bronze
#

yes i did that and it wasn’t in there

faint flare
#

Then Just wait

jade quartz
#

it's still not gonna be instant

faint flare
#

Still gotta go through systems

forest bronze
#

ahh okies ill wait and hope it arrives soon

fading aurora
#

@forest bronze I've had 1 set of gear take 2 minutes another 15 and a mount was instant

#

It's all random

#

I think it depends on how server processes the payment and delivery

river oak
#

havent played ina while, i have gladiator to lvl 31 but i cannot find the quest for paladin any tips (Doesnt show up in gladiator guild)

fading aurora
#

Maybe u have it accepted already

jade quartz
kind eagle
#

btw

#

e12s mount drop each run?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

If 2 chests spawn

kind eagle
#

only 2 chest?

faint flare
#

1 chest is a 50/50

#

As one chest spawns at random

kind eagle
#

oh

fading aurora
#

Is there a list of easy mounts to get?

#

Ones that are before extreme trials etc

jade quartz
#

extreme trial mounts are pretty easy to get given the existence of unsync.

faint flare
#

Old extreme trials as they're Easy to solo/unsync, beast tribe mounts

jade quartz
#

unicorn mount from level 30 conjurer quest

#

five or so mounts from MSQ

faint flare
#

Crafted mounts

fading aurora
#

@jade quartz what conjurer quest

jade quartz
#

achievement token mounts from Jonathas

#

a quest available from the conjurer's guild as a level 30 conjurer

#

white mages can't accept it

#

it's weird

faint flare
#

Unicorn power

fading aurora
#

Ah so I have to take whm stone of to see it?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

And do it

fading aurora
#

Ok cool

faint flare
#

It's yellow

fading aurora
#

@jade quartz I have all the msq mounts

#

But only like 1 seems appealing

#

I want a ground mount with no wings

#

Like a wolf

faint flare
#

Those are stormblood extreme trial mounts

#

The doggos

jade quartz
#

there's a wolf from the Ixal beast tribe but it's....uhhhhhh..... 😰

#

yeah unsynced stormblood extremes

faint flare
#

Fenrir from mgp

#

Like 1mil

jade quartz
#

here's the Ixal wolf.

fading aurora
#

I wanted fenrir but it's gonna take a while

#

Before I get it

jade quartz
#

the SB extreme mounts look like this though

#

in various colours

fading aurora
#

@jade quartz that's no wolf that's a chupacabra

#

Ye that wolf looks awesome

#

I can't wait to get one

faint flare
#

Lakshami Is the easiest to unsync

jade quartz
#

there are magical elemental horses from the ARR extreme primals, and glowy falcons from the heavensward ones.

faint flare
#

Just press the button and win

fading aurora
#

Are extreme trails doable with 510 gear?

#

And when do I unlock them

heavy wadi
#

which ones?

jade quartz
#

Level 80 ones yes

#

old expansion ones are unsynced

heavy wadi
#

some hw extremes are soloable, sb ones aren't, arr ones are super easy nowadays

jade quartz
#

so they're facerolls
