Wandering Minstrel in mor dhoa, kugane, and crystarium
ARR ex primals unlock from the Waking Sands, HW ones from Unukalhai in the Rising Stones + two from the Wandering Minstrel just outside the Rising Stones
SB ones from the Wandering Minstrel in Kugane
ShB ones from the Minstreling Wanderer in the Crystarium and from the Warmachina Fanatic in the Lochs
How do I have my crafting window up, besides my market board window?
On controller?
I’m seeing my friend do it in keyboard
when's the tentative date for 5.55?
let's talk the butterfinger promo rq. i live in europe, have an european acc but play on crystal. ive asked someone from my fc to maybe get like a code for me for the mount.
think im gonna be able to use it on an european sqenix acc?
I bought a sledge hammer at the market board and I don't see it in my inventory?
armory chest
oh
it is on the off hand section on the armory inventory
theres an option to automatically make items go into your bags rather than armoury chest if you prefer that but gear will always go into an available armory chest spot otherwise
found it, thanks~
yes most likely. i have a buddy doing similar, cant verify it works yet but cant imagine it wouldnt
Hi guys, long time WoW player. Played FFXIV for the first time and I'm level 40. Things are pretty slow now, but everyone tells me it "gets better" after ARR. I understand a lot of love for the game is for the story that ramps up, but in terms of gameplay, is it truly much better post 50/endgame, and in what ways? Debating if I should keep going.
it might be region locked though.. they do that a lot with things but hope not
HW is far better than ARR, endgame is at 80 tho. so it will be a bit
You get more buttons to press and the story is better paced
when the event is still in japan, some of my fc mates are able to redeem the code even though the candies were bought in japan (someone has to bought it there)
Hey, so I am farming Light in Tam-tara right now for my relic... the wiki says the bonus rotates every 2h and if I hit the right tieming instead of brilliant light I'll be getting blinding... any idea when that rotation happens? Is there some site with a timer?
most rotations dont start filling out til around 70+ tbh with you.. til then rotations feel a bit clunky/slow i suppose but start amping up around 60s
When u say soloable with what class exactly?
not anymore that i know of because it's so outdated/obsolete
Or any class can do it
red mage easiest solo
warrior go brrrrt
@empty ember what class are u
There was a site that players went into when they spotted light while farming, but it's probably dead
It rotates every 2 hours, on the evens, afaik
ye pretty sure the timers are dead, they used to be live updated but kinda died with SB
war or pld are probably safest to solo with

Would gunbreaker work aswell since it can heal itself?
not as much
since it's invlun puts you at 1hp and the heal isnt strong enough to counter
unlike pld and war which can heal pretty much on demand
I was doing a dung yesterday and everyone died apart from a gunbreaker and he seemed to be unlikable
Everything he took as dmg he healed back
around 40 mins no delivery
@forest bronze did your payment go through?
Thaumaturge
yes
40 minutes isn't that long
i got the confirmation email aswell
Thaumaturge or black mage take a whole to get their full rotation
keep in mind you should be Black Mage at this point by doing job quests, which will give you more skills to use
i’ll wait a bit more
!faq blmleveling
The receipt needs a UPC code on it
That relates to one of the Butterfinger products listed on the site
From what I've seen, receipts without an UPC code will be rejected
can you accidentally delete mail with items in it?
or cant delete till items are claimed?
Thank you 
Do I have to do something to turn in white gatherer’s scrips? I can’t figure out where to turn them in
This may just be me being stupid but the launcher does not have the option for me to log into my existing account, i have every expansion and obviously have a square account. I recently got a new computer and downloaded the launcher but it is only giving me options for a new account.
Unlock eulmore collectible people
Ah. About how far in MSQ is that?
Finish shadowbringers Base story
Oh okay, I’m still in SB. Will just let these sit here I guess
Just where do you start to unlock bozjan?
Tried this but there's no airship there to go to gangos? https://www.millenium.gg/guide/15723.html
On a scale of 1-10
How difficult is unreal leviathan
7-8 if you're new to raiding
does delubrium savage give anything special?
cerberus mount
other than that is there reasont o run it
does it give more timeworn artifacts or coins or something
i think it counts as a DR run but that's it
it's not content for casuals
but i heard its fun
its just not mixed with the relics since they are casual
DRS is only "hard" because it's 48 players
mechanics aren't much more difficult than an ex
How many faux leaves per unreal clear?
oh you need an alliance to queue for it
well fuck
welp guess im never doing DRS lmao
yeah it's doable with 24 but harder
im sad i didnt get to do this content while it was relevant
People run it in discords
oh
which discords
cuz i def am curious about it
but idk if i'll be able to run ti lmao
That isn't there either. Looking through the pre req quests it wants me to do all the stormbringers raid content? That cant be right?
Yes
yep, the whole storyline
.
At that point wouldnt it be easier to get the same ilvl weapon off ex diamond?
Diamond is higher for now
no, its 10 levels lower after 5.55
bozja and the AR are casusal, diamond ex isn't
you should unlock bozja anyways, because it's good for leveling alt jobs 71-80
How much better? Wouldnt they make it easier to start relic then instead of having to go through all old raids?
It's better than savage weapons
btw is delubrium or potd faster for artifacts (the relic step)
Relics are casual time sinks in general
I'm more worried about trying to queue them as they're older content there might not be people running them
people run alliance roulette all the time, shouldnt be too bad
They are
people are doing it for bozja stuff
DR is 100%, POTD is rng
^
plenty of people run it lol
thank
there isn't really any content that's "dead"
the only content that isn;t run on DF is coils and ex/savage, all other content is queueable
does mettle matter after im rank 15
thank
in 5.55 they'll add new ranks, up to 25 - until then it doesn't super matter
its based on tiers for SPS
you have to hit a certain amt of SPS before you start decreases your GCD
You need a set amount of speed to reduce it
Each tier reduces it by 0.01s
!faq stats
I'm stuck unlocking Bozja because I need content from stormblood but it seems that its impossible to get the duty (ridorana lighthouse) completed? I've been queuing like 1.5hours here and there over the last couple days and nothing. Is there anyway to skip this? or hopefully someone can tell me theres a way around this 😄
its frustrating, ive queued through 2 sets of UK/EU peak time now and nothing
I'm a healer. How do you tick all languages? D:
Duty finder settings
christ I have had it set to just English this whole time. I really hope this speeds up this queue then, cant progress until then :<
the all languages issue is mostly important in EU and JP
due to a large variety of nationalities and languages
tbh if you checked english that's the only really big noticable big decrease to queue times in EU
the other ones are still nice to have though
Is there a bug or a hidden requirement in the Fate Clearing the Hive outside quarrymill? The bandit leader is on his knees untargetable, objective still says to kill the bandit leader and is marked at 50%
Fingers crossed that having Japanese added in at least increases my chances. I really want to unlock the rest of the ShB content but this is blocking me 😦
Alright, you have to go to the other side of the bandit camp and also kill his pet turtle "shredder". No indication of that as far as I can tell but when I killed it the other 50% filled in and the Fate completed
are you EU? adding german and french would be a better odds tbh
what's limited leveling roulette for? I don't know and I'm curious
Makes queing with your full party of friends not ass
You can only get a dungeon 4 levels below your lowest member
oh that's neat :o
What class should I focus on as dancer?
Any
If I wanted to craft gear for them
all of them
all
Really?
no job just uses gear from one crafter
That's nice to know
is there a # where new in-game events get announced?
What exactly do you craft then?
has all the official news
I don't understand
You craft what you craft
That's the thing
armor, weapons, food, pots, furniture, etc
And each class craft different sets of these?
Yes
more like individual pieces
^
And need items from others
On an individual basis
bows need carpenter, axes need armorer, swords are blacksmith, etc
Thanks @glossy flare!
like you could wear gloves from a weaver, chest from an armourer and feet from a carpenter
Like, some armour for tanks might need armourer, leatherworker, or even weaver. It really depends on the specific piece and what it's made out of
(surprisingly high amount of wooden shoes in this game ngl)
blacksmith afaik
its generally recommended to do all the crafters together
mostly blacksmith, but it needs mats from other crafters to make it
but yeah, this ^
but yes blacksmith makes a majority of chakrams
it'll be way faster and more efficient to level the crafters at the same time
some are ALC tho
I see
While blacksmith makes chakrams it'd still use leathers and stuff to make it which you need leatherworker for as just a single example
you won't be self-sufficient if you only do 1
less money spent on buying stuff you need from other crafters/gatherers
you're not going to be able to gear your dancer through crafted gear alone anyways while leveling
is the amount of holy casts the same for all adds before they are resistant?
Yes
like 3 or 4?
3
4s > 2s > 1s> resisted
makes sense, thanks you guys
quick question, now that heavensward is free, can a new player start as an au ra?
Yes
okay, thanks!
so since I have my role gear and I'm level 80 finished shadowbringers, the dungeons don't really seem to be dropping anything higher than 430
you can buy 510 gear on the MB
Weird open ended question, but from a long time WoW player I want to ask, where do you find the fun in this game/what content is fun to you?
how expensive is that usually
The 80 dungeons drop higher ilevel gear after Amaurot
also I feel like buying it is a bit lame, rather earn it myself
yeah I don't have 1mil
And tomes
i love the story, characters, been having fun doing raiding and bozja, devs listen and fix problems, and just vibing with my friends doing random shit
Shadowbringers is one of the best FF stories in the series. AND it's an mmo. it's just a ton of fun
Is there a "gear treadmill" in this game, and is it satisfying? Is gear easy to get or a good balance of tough but rewarding?
its both really
The thing that frustrates me the most about WoW is that every season it feels all my work becomes replaced and obsolete.
well that... is kinda the same here
every time new content comes out old content tends to become obsolete
gear is linear until endgame
not entirely of course, but at least in terms of gear
and then it only gets easier to obtain as time passes
I'm determined to see through to the end, many people people have told me it gets better, I'm level 40 atm, hope I enjoy it
the advantage of FF's loot creep over WoW's, is it's impossible to be like my group's paladin and go without a >ilvl 200 helmet for this entire fucking tier
Yeah, you'll get the loot you want eventually
in XIV once a new expansion drops the endgame gear for this expansion will become easy to obtain so people can catch up, the exception is extreme and savage gear
as someone with a regular raiding group, I absolutely feel like I'm being rewarded adequately for my effort
not just getting an i200 belt from shriekwing and nothing else in the night
It's always possible for your to get current gear with enough time
mainly due to the token system
In terms of ilvl you don't even have to touch the challenging part of the endgame (savage raids)
can still get to 530 (current highest ilvl) entirely without it
Just takes longer
you won't be best in slot either
Is there any way to get ACT to measure in potency rather than damage?
(excluding the savage weapon which is 535)
your stats will be suboptimal as fuck
yes, that
can most things be done via a raid finder type thing? or do you need premades
savage raids would require premades
endgame content is done via premade
no, because potency numbers are wack and partially a lie due to the +/-5% drift skills have
Same as WoW. Anything with a modicum of challenge requires premades
i see
special mention to
!action fire 4
I know some players who PF savages, and they make it work
pardon
!action fire IV
There you go
also skills like DoTs and certain jobs like Black Mage have unique scaling due to the Astral Fire multiplier
BLM really gets going at 60
are sacks of nuts easy to getr
technically 651 because of Enochian
but yea, point made
assuming you can catch hunt trains which happen pretty regularly, yeah you can get 2-3k nuts pretty often
if I can't solo it then nevermind
Suit yourself.
honestly I don't even know what hunts are
!faq hunts
They're those random high level mobs in the area
anyone know of any male tank tops?
The weekly bill asks you to kill those and daily bills ask you to kill a number of random mobs
Y'know, we really should have an FAQ for that...
TL;DR basically daily and weekly bounties with a unique currency, but there's some mobs who's bounty is always active and doesn't require an active bounty item
the latter have 2 per zone, up to 12 per expansion normally
Which are also on a... 3 hour respawn timer, I believe?
craftsman's singlet, skyworker's singlet
thanks! :P
both available on mb but likely not cheap
There's communities dedicated towards tracking these hunt mobs and then organizing massive trains to A: maximize rewards and B: easily take down the mobs cause they're as difficult as raid bosses if you take em on with a normal full party
I'm doing a random level 50/60/70 and happened to be queued with another DNC, me also doing DNC. But their CH was at 18% and mine at 12%, so I wasn't sure I was pulling weight. I figured if I could measure just potency I could check that more easily. Any other way to do what I want to achieve?
(mainly cause they chunky)
Step 1: unless you're 80, don't worry about statistics
Precisely, which is why I had hoped for ACT to be able to disregard it
Welcome to crit rng
what materia should i put on the blm relic
oh, you want to discount crit from the metric
It's fucking ass
all crit ?
follow your meld priority
Depends on what you're chasing for black mage
oh my god a skyworkers singlet is 400k 
Spell speed or crit build?
wym
do you need to unlock aymark? because he is nowhere
did you finish the MSQ Quest called Shadowbringers
yes
!faq balance
!faq balance
!faq balance
Go to the Eulmore Main Plaza
check there for your BiS and stat priority
Do you need to do the 2nd stage resistance weapon grind (3x20 memory of dying ) for every weapon?
Damn. I guess I need to brush up and do Heavensward fates though
I bet this isn't even the worst step ahahaha
best way to lvl up my astrologian? should i just do my highest dungeon available\
!faq altlvlguide
highest level leveling dungeon and roulettes yeah
ty ty
Except level cap dungeons like 50/60/70
so does anyone know where aymark is, gamerescape says he is in eulmore customs hold but he aint there
Top floor, with the main aetherite
oh he is way over here, okay I finally found it
Where do I spend the gemstones?
I hit cap, am I able to access lvl 80 gear? I'm almost done with shadowbringers
Finish shadowbringers
Yes, or buy 510 of the market
510 iLVL?
Okay cool thx
the story gear is 430
You get memories from mobs? I thought it was only from fates
Never touched a blue mage, any guides on how to set them up? (As in skill, gears etc)
Look for hq if I MB?
yes, NQ gear is garbage
Bojzan mobs yes
check in #resources for blue mage stuff
Read the quest text carefully
I okay yeah im very noob lol I didn't know there was hq, I haven't looked at anything other than iLVL before I hit cap I have just been grinding MSQ. Man I have alot to learn
I have wondered what that meant lol. So I assume just better stats?
crafted stuff comes in normal quality and high quality
high quality having that icon
yep, you've done the story, now its time to focus on the MMO
Depends, do you plan to get into savage raiding?
Materia aren't really necessary anywhere else
Though tbh, it's not like you ever lack Materia so you might as well put them in
Oof I'm about to open Pandoras yall, what should I start doing after MSQ? What do people usually go for? Good things ro focus on?
lots of things
Whatever you want, you'll be free after doing all the story
raiding, leveling new jobs, relic weapons
Hello!
to just name a few
!faq contentunlock
What are relic weapons and yes I really am excited for all the lvl 80 raids and dungeons and yes learn new classes might be a big goal of mine
relic weapons are shiny but grindy weapons for each job
Awesome guide ty
Fully upgraded they are the best weapon you can get for any given expansion
Uhm question:
Recently heard of the 'free trial', but uhm I have a account that hasn't hit level 60 and has some expansions on it. Would i have to make another account to try it out? Or can I play through it until sixty
And the last step for the current relics is coming soon as a matter of fact
@simple lynx I'm pretty sure you need a new account
Yes, you can not revert back to the free trial
that's why its the free trial, and not F2P
!unmute 240256618963533824
?
I assume they used some no no words?

Filter for mass @
Ahh
Well Cerburus, Vinyl, Kael, Cypher, Paragon and lots of others ty for the help and answering all my spam questions though my MSQ, love the community 🥳🥳
That's what i was trying to say lol, just didn't like the @s
quick question about the meta, is it really unbalanced or generally balanced?
!faq meta
Very balanced

So balanced that the meta is basically non existent
tldr play what you want and have fun
SWEET
pressing the right buttons in the right order is advised
wow refugee scared of picking the wrong class lul
There's no wrong choices
pick one that looks cool to you
In anything
boom, you're good
this ain't wow, forget them
just be all classes on 1 character
you can play every class on one character
Unlike wow this is a good game with Devs who care
so it's not like wow where you need to reroll every time to keep with the meta :p
:^)
its already better
wow is in such a shit state lol
YEP
6 months into expansion and still no new patch looool
literally nothing to do
aight mb
Hello, is there a specific channel to ask people if they want to join group content?
I wanted to ask for some advice, I just got finished with ARR and got into some hard bosses, how much do I need to worry about dying to big AOEs (not only telegraphs but also stuff on the ground like with Titan)?
general rule of thumb: If it can be dodged it SHOULD be dodged
Extreme and up content, aoes will kill you
anyone know what these walls are called
There are some rare exceptions where you want to stand in aoe on purpose but those are so specific that it's way better to just assume an aoe is very bad
don't stand in aoe
alright
so I "just" need to be faster at noticing the stuff and commit to dodging one way
Half-Timbered
Paying attention does help with dodging things yes
pretty much, the more you practice a fight the better you get at it
mh...can legacy controls help? I just switched from what is by default because walking backwards is so slow
lkegacy helps
legacy is awesome IMO
with backwards movement alot
Legacy is pretty goos
only thing legacy sucks is with eye mechanics
switch once and never looked back
Cause you just walk backwards as normal
yes i do that and 90% of the time its fine but 10% of the time i greed a gcd
tap s
and get hit by eye
Git gud
or
lmao gottem
i spam tap s if i want to greed gcd
works 99% of 50% of the time
just never worry about hitting s
same with with e7s
i switch cameera mode just for that fight
as a melee even on legacy there's little trouble
and it was glorious
use strafe tech
with the butterfinger collab, do you have to make multiple accounts to get multiple mounts? bought another $10 or so worth of those damn candy bars to get one for my gf and her friend
yes
I just walk Into the boss then keep walking back while using the gcd
always a chance youll get hit
Only doesn't work if you mistimed the gcd and server says fuck you
alright, thanks everyone
you can do strafe tech on casters too
@crystal ingot just send them the receipts
they ask for address
yea cos the split second u are facing the boss you snap back to the original direction
its neat
is the butterfinger code region restricted? like if i would get a code from the us would it work on my eu account?
ok cool! (: i assume you've got to do them one at a time
can you not just give them your address
they ask for address, which i assume has to be a valid american address
@sinful breach if its like jp then it shouldnt be region restricted
i think the jp ones worked on en accounts in the previous collab like this?
yes
yeah i mean my cousin lives in the states so i dont think the address would be an issue
So any of you know by now if the mount is region locked? I see it's asking for a US address and right after that it already wants the receipt. For the address you can just use google
read 4 messages up
I did
if its like jp then it shouldnt be region restricted
Yeah I know but nobody tried it out is my question ^^ I wanna know for sure cause about to buy some butterfingers lol
it might not work if you buy it from an eu store cause im pretty sure that would show on the receipt
Yeah I think so too, luckily my bf lives there
you could ask him to buy it for you and use his address
Yap that's what we will try, I kinda doubt it will come to EU

Huge item pool, though
Hello. I am a new player in EU zone. I am currently downloading game and choosing my server (data center) and trying to figure out pre-game basics. I have some mmo experience, but this is my first attempt at diving into FF14.
From what I figured out from pinned topics, servers have different economies (auctions? pre-set shops?), and they also have different "hunts", and I am not even sure how end-game PvE content (raiding / dungeons) are called, and if it is possible to play with other servers on the same data center. Also, is there anything that indicates heavier focus on PvP or RP content on the server? Or presense of particular language communities? (I found a topic on reddit, but it seems to be out of date currently).
In short, how does a new player figure out what server he should go to? What should I pay attention to?
!faq newplayertips
servers dont have different hunts
Cross world deleted that part
do you get tomes of revelation from playing in the Bozjan Southern Front if you play on a 80 job (similar to how you did in Eureka)?
Cause you can visit others
content is divided into dungeons, trials (boss fights), normal raids (glorified trials), and alliance raids (24 man raids)
Yes, very small amount though
outside of CLL and DR not much
Is it per FATE like Eureka was?
Yes
the endgame content is the extreme versions of trials and the savage versions of raids
Like 3 per fate
1 per
Gotcha. I am just planning in case I don't cap on hunt trains this evening.
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
also you can buy from other worlds market boards but you can only sell on your home world
Alright, thank you.
What’s the recommended materia for healer?
piety to comfort, sps to breakpoint, crit > dh > det
on the website, it says "No recurring subscription payments. Click here to sign up for recurring subscription payments."
does that mean my sub will NOT auto-renew?
not atm
Until you sign up for auto renewal
can i keep manually paying without ever making it automatic?
crysta?
?
never heard of it
you can use crysta to pay the amount you want, and you won't have it be recurring.
anyone know how long the turn over is suppose to be for the promotion?
The free to 60 is it until u finish HW or until u get to lvl 60
the trial lets you play for as long as you want. you just can't progress a job past level 60, and your main scenario quest can't progress past the end of heavensward (the last quest being "The far edge of fate")

just giving a little tip for people reading this and struggling to find a party for any dungeon, I used to tag for hours for Delubrum Reginae, but I was only on one language in my duty finder, switched on the 4 languages and now I tag for 5min max at any time of the day.
So any people that feels they wait way to much, or dps that tries to queue for roulette or anything, just go to your duty finder, settings and check every language, this will make your life easier, and your farm more smooth !
you should have all languages enabled if youre in EU
Sooo I’m brand new and would like to be a red mage I’m lvl 8 a viera arcanist and in na aether faerie I think???
I am, but I dont know for what reason I opened my duty finder settings, seen the languages and only mine was enabled
@verbal kernel you need to own the expansions and get to lvl 50
gotta have any job at lvl 50 and own Stormblood to unlock Red mage
can't, you must be lvl 50 and own stormblood
afaik red mage is unlocked at lvl 50
They're a viera
Really having all languages do something
So they have the dlcs
I only have E on
oh yeah
Am I fine with the class I have?
then just need lvl 50
Yes
yes
There's no bad job
expansion classes dont have a class requirement
Ok because I think I Owen everything
@rose oak it doesnt work for NA
you do indeed
Can’t lie it’s hard and a little boring not like eso at all but still better then 11 online!!🤣🤣🤣
2 skill and lvl 6 opponents 💪
🤣🤣🤣
Ohh umm so do I have to wait for a lvl for a mount?
everything is story locked
Idk what quests are story’s 😭

I’ve been out killing stuff for quests
regular yellow side quests are only for lore
you have a story tracker
in the top left
That?
yes
Yes
and do the quest underneath it too
Quest below it should be highest priotity
They unlock more skills later
ok
It tells me to investigate seesongs grotto? Idk where that is 🤣 I might be to slow for this game hahah
i clicked wait when i died now i cant do anything
click the quest objective and it marks it on your map
You can use the minimap to go in the direction of the quest and you can just open the map to find it. Or click the quest and yeah click "map" and it shows you right where it is
For reference though
This is some bs!! I was on top of this quest all day!!!!
It's a cave
I’ve been running Circles for hours
Should be a thing in the bottom right to reopen the menu
Entrance is just south
I’m.... so sad...
Arrow as direction leading into cave
I’m happy I found it but I’m pissssssssssssssssed I’ve walked passed it idk how many times😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 TYVM GUYS!!!!
Just bear in mind one more thing
Huh?
On the map the quest marker would have had a down arrow indicating it was below you
So just watch for that
quest markers have up or down arrows if youre too high or low
I have to watch the little things haha
So if this toon is lvl 50-60 and I make a new one can I change the new ones job? Or still have to lvl it?
hey, can we downgrade after passing the lvl 15 into bozja ?
If you make a new character you'd still have to level it from scratch and stuff but you don't need to make new characters to play other jobs
you can play all jobs on one character
You can't derank
ok ty
Mettle is basically worthless until 5.55

@wintry chasm really?!?
If you unlock another job on the same character though yes you'd need to level that too. Levels are job based not character based
So is my race ok?
Good my daughter said bunny so I’m a bunny.....
Aww that's sweet, don't let her Google final fantasy bunny girl
She’s 3
But yeah as you can see
anyone happen to know crystal/NA's favourite vg2 strat?
Why not just use a macro?
that's cute
Cause NA is surprisingly allergic to macros
that's my point
so does byakko mane drop from all byakko weapons or just the rod? i saw on gamerscape it says just the rod but im not sure if thats right
that would be too smart
gamerescape generally isn't a 100% accurate on desynthesis. if it drops from one weapon, it generally drops from the others
okay ty!
recently changed GC, how do I spent this seal?
you can't
I have to change back? lol
yep, costs gil tho
pretty sure I spent them all, but apparently it filled up quickly >.>
I don't even remember how did I get 14k
fates and lvling roulette
I don't remember doing expert delivery and I spent the seals just before I did my leveling roulette for the day 😂
afaik they typically pick whats called JP strat in NA but you can also look for it as akito strat. another one thats used but less common is melee uptime
my memory must've tricked me
good. jp strat is like, pogs at cards, move to closest corner, then move clockwise?
yes
How do I know how far I am in the storyline?
open up your quest journal and lookat the level of the quest with
icon
theres at least 100 hours of story so
I just want the mount

!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
thank you. going to have to engage with pf for first time this tier
thankfully our vg2 is modified akito, so i just need to learn happy brambles i think
the real vg2 strat is to skip it tbh
mood.
pf is capable but its not likely
set expectations low w/ pf and never be disappointed
Can I set a shortcut to mute sounds in FFXIV with a button or do i have to set up macro?
can i use the duty finder with more then just 1 role at the same time ?
and it then chooses whats needed most ?
No
yes, but i forget the macro command
You que with your job
F
Anybody have a link to a guide they'd might recommend to leveling all the Disciple of Hand skills together? (I did DoL to 80 one by one... not efficient at all)
/mastervolume [volume number]
no number turns it into a toggle
ty ty
since the rework it's any order, just do em in levels of 5 to 10 at a time
wow that was super fast, thank you
if i finish fire in the forge and start for want of a memory with one class, is it possible to start the relic of a different class before completing want
ah okay. do i need to be 80?
Yes
You can gather extra memories/relic materials from one instance of the quest

Anyone have any idea what kind of account info they set you up with when you buy the console version? The account name is my PSN name and I can’t change it and the password was 8 characters that disappeared recently so now I can’t log in since I don’t know that password and the email for the PSN account has its own sqenx account but I can’t change the name in the launcher for PSN.
if you sign into mogstation I think you can check which SE account your PSN account is tied to?
are the yukata's dyable?
What yukata?
i used up a mount but it didn't show up in my mount guide, i also used up a minion right after activitating the mount so im wonder if its possible the mount got cancelled out or something?
Is the mount whistle/horn still in your inventory?
nope it isnt
ive checked, its not there
and i used the whistle yesterday
so i have relogged since then
Contact SE support then?
ok thanks for answering!
Would it be possible to collect 8 Timeworn artifacts in a few hours in delubrum? Have 7 and just need 8 more
You get 1 per run so if your runs are quick
assuming 30mins per DR run, about 4hrs?
DR probably averages about 40-50 minutes, so a bit more than that
Anywhere between like a few minutes to "very long"...I don't think it's ever possible to know how long it can really g9
Between 30- mins to people leaving the instance
just wait
It happens when you get dc'd
if you dont disconnect properly your character remains "connected" for a small period of time
so you have to wait for that + the 20 second logout timer as well
The game just hasn't properly dc ed you
Just quit the game and log back in, make sure the system your using is connected when trying again
when does the new expansion come out?
fall
sometime fall, probs september/october but could be earlier
hmm. i might wait until then to buy then cause it comes with previous expansions right?
Yes
hmm okey okey
ive been considering restarting on a free trial but that would mean i would have to buy base game as well right?
Yes
hmm. i have an account that stopped at like heavensward where i ran out of sub time and didnt have money to resub
you can still use that account when you resub
Is 420 the highest materia u can get?
so i was considering restarting and using this time to work on gettting a bunch of stuff up to heavensward done. but then i would lose my old account and email link and all that
Tier 8s yee
but idk i guess ill just wait to sub
Tier 8s, yes
Tyty
wait just to check when you say companion do you mean mount or minion? @worldly hatch
like how your chocobo fights with you?
Then no you only get your chocobo doing that
Why does materia not say the stats it gives on mb?
Then that was a mob trying to kill him
Ah
Listed at the bottom of a meld window
@faint flare do u know if there is a guide for which materia dancer uses on gear?
!faq balance
These nerds do
But typically dps use Crit » dh » det
possibly
!faq dncbis
for a full bis meldset
@faint flare but how do I know how much to balance those stats
so is most event stuff gone for good?
like for example there was a ff15 event last time i played i got a bunch of the stuff for does this stuff come back?
seasonal event stuff goes onto mogstation to buy with $ a year after release
yes until they either bring it back or put it on the cash shop
theyre bringing the ff15 event back
^ confirmed
eventually
no date though
oh so i could get the regalia mount and all that again?
yes
Yes
eventually
Whenever they run it again
@faint flare so u don't know what piece will take what materiaM
is it possible to link ff14 free trial to a steam account?
Probably after endwalker if anything
Materia*
You.look at the bottom of the meld window
and would i be able to like unbind an old account or something like that
you can play the free trial on steam but if you already started the free trial on windows then you cant
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
See in the image
no you cant unbind acounts
some collab stuff like that has appeared on mogstation and probably won't appear again like the FF13 collab but some have gone and probably won't come back and you can't get the items again like the GARO one
The bottom is the stat caps
That tells you how much you can shove into that particular stat
Ah
@remote lintel by unbind i meant email
you can change the email
or if i do steam do i not need an emai
yes you do
basically im considering restarting so i can work on doing all the content through heavensward on a free trial and then buy the new expansion when that comes out
Can melding fail?
endwalker isnt coming out for another 5 months
I see a lot of people in main city failing in chat
Kk
ye ik which would give me alot of time to work on the account. i just want to save money here so like. i dont want to buy shadowbringers, pay for 5 months sub then buy endwalker
the content on the free trial wont last 5 months but if you want to sure
do people still do heavensward content?
If I die in HoH, do I lose all the XP gained so far that run?
If it's in a roulette yes
if you mean endgame content they do it unsync so they can just be lvl 80 and blast through it
You don't GET any xp until you finish a set of 10 floors
hmm okey. well idk ill think about it
My normal level displays on the XP bar though unlike PotD
It's 61-70 in potd
i just really want to play the game but dont want to spend alot of extra money cause got pretty limited video game funds atm
It follows the exact same rules
Which leves are quick? I’m at Whitebrim doing ones like the Void one, which needs only one kill, but that doesn’t always pop up.
so i figurd free trial would give me somethin to do
then just do the trial
i guess my old character name and stuff would be taken huh?
like i would have to make a new name
yes
if youre going to make a new account then you cant transfer anything
you would just be abandoning your old account
i see
and no way to like delete the character without logging in i guess?
to get my name?
i mean you can delete your account but idk how long it takes to remove it from the system

hmm
What the quickest way to get the weaver from 70 to 80 pretty quickly?
leves
If I have a gladiator at level 30, can I become a warrior?
So i'd need to start from level 1 as a marauder?
yes
yep
Alright thanks. 🙂
quick raid question someone. It was never really explained to me but how come I can't create e10s parties/duty finder if I've already cleared e9s? Do I have to clear e10s first?
you need to clear the first floor first before the next
You need to clear 9s every week
If you skip ahead without clearing it every week then you'll forfeit all loot for 9s
However you can join a 10s group if you don't mind skipping 9s.
I do recommend not skipping 9s though, the accessories are worth the trip
Is the unicorn the only class mount u can get?
From a quest
There's mounts for tanks
As achievements
Which requires you to do alot of duties as that tank to get their mount
Which mounts did you say we're easy to get a few hrs ago?
behemoth
Arr extreme trials, beast tribe mounts (time locked but easy), mgp stuff, achievement certificates at Jonathas
Wait where does behemoth drop from
You talk to Jonathas in old gridina
Jonathas in Old Gridania at the Akpallu Falls
Omw there
But basically 1 certificate every 50 achievement point
how much do astheticians charge?
2k per use
Like 2k gil
what's a good class to solo 70 dungeons atm?
im trying to have a melee class and im debating what would be something easy for a new melee player? i have mch for range/2 tanks and i would like something up close . ty
the tanks can manage it pretty well, but its at the speed of standard duty finder
dragoon is a low bar to entry for a melee
^
Its the most "static" of the melees
im down to dragoon/nin/sam
Samurai
Because it start at 50
Argument can be made for DRG/NIN that you get to practice them steadily from lvl 1
If you picked up samurai, however, look for WeskAlber on YouTube on samurai guide
dragoon and monk are pretty simple
how do i unlock old bozja?
Do you mean Eureka?
the entrance is blocked from southern entrenchment
rank up
Do the blue quests in bojza
Nvm
They're the story
i need to go up 3 more ranks before i can continue the blue quets

Gotta hit 8 to access all zones, and 10 to finish the story
I heard dragoon is just press what is shinning
no
dragoon has a strict rotation
its simple but you have to do it exactly in order
See that's my fear I mess up and ppl are like was the dragoon
thats how all dps are
It's ok to mess up at first
Practice makes perfect, and no one who's reasonable is going to admonish someone who's new
How many upgrades will resistance weapons have?

We don't know how many steps the next update will have, but it will likely end at i535
5.56 right?
5.55
Probably a new weapon model and then glow
Oh
Relics are always x.x5
Anyway what is the best way to get haunting/vexatious memories of the dying?
And timeworn artifacts?
Potd if you go to floor 200, otherwise DR
Fuck
welcome to current relics! enjoy your stay
Are there any good strats for soloing potd? Any particular jobs that are ideal?
Mch i think
Red mage is the obvious but much can kite and burst well
rdm and mch are top 2
Obviously less healing
rdm is the safer choice, mch if you know how to kite
Maygi’s POTD 1-200 Handbook (Solo/Party) ~ EDIT ~ Looking for a Heaven-on-High guide? Here’s a link to it! If you prefer to view this in a Google doc, you can use this link. The pictures and names are in a tiny column, I know! Will fix soon TM ~ INTRO ~ Looking to clear floor 200? You’ve come...
is a really good source for potd/hoh
Cool, thanks!
Might try that tomorrow for funsies
And for the relic but mostly for funsies
Stock up on those sustain pots and set aside the day
So is there any difference between the Grand Companies? Even gear-wise?
kk ty
what time does lamia character creation open up?
whenever people get off
it is worth to do old tribe quest? i mean from ARR to Stormblood
Only worth doing are stormblood ones

They're nice for levelling alts and for mounts. Minions etc
They give you 1 million exp
