Yes
Still need to specify
There are multiple relics
the tea pots?
with multiple shiny stages
I'll look later I guess if there's more than 1
The Base jobs have every single shiny weapon possible
All relic series, all possible crafted primal weapons
MNK has 5 relics
there is a relic questline for each expansion and the relic goes through multiple forms over the course of those relic questlines
including model and animation changes
So yeah... there's a lot
Wouldn't Rhalgr be associated with Monk?
lorewise Rhalgr is associated with the monks, yes
the original monk order was called The Fist of Rhalgr
Dunno if stupid question, but why am I seeing that many people grouping for the last Nier raid in Party Finder? Whats the goal?
Thanks again Vinyl, that worked and Im now upgraded 🙂
^ also I've seen fun runs with all 1 role runs for breach
hmm ok, I thought the time for grouping would not be worth it, but makes sense I guess
Like all tank breach
Maybe it's a good plan If I want the TT card to get into one of these, people will maybe be more willing to pass if they don't need it
Is it a better idea to go for the new nier gear, or should I just work on getting and upgrading the cryptlurker gear?
since revelations is capped at 450 a week, and paradigm armour is 1 piece of gear a week
both
You'll need to do nier raids to upgrade cryptlurker at least one way that is
do you get less exp for doing job quests on easy
No

Now that I think about it, once the expansion hits we’ll just get better gear anyways, so i think I’m happy with the mix of nier and cryptlurker gear I got now.
530 will last you til around 85~
unless you're doing savage you don't really need to spend a lot of time gearing
How I am supposed to complete this quest with this thing killing me in 3 hits? lol He wont move away from the npc...
its a field boss (?)
It is 🙂 you can /shout for help or ask on your local NN
what server?
Im at cactuar
That’s the thing Paragon, I don’t do savage
do what tael said, otherwise i'll come kill it in a sec gotta log in
Okay Ill try
then don't worry about it, unless you wanna gear for fun
I managed to hide from it and finish the quest, ty tho 
anyone on Aether want to run Aurum Vale? need for Blu log
Is there any way to transfer like UI, HUD Layout and gear sets from Ps4 to pc?
I find everything is set default on PC version, no gear sets, HUD layour, hotkeys all default
All macros gone as well
On the character select screen you can right click your character and backup your settings to the cloud and then restore on another device, but I don't know how well that works going from console to PC
sorry if this was asked recently already. currently on the trial and just got into HW MSQ and hit 60. wanting to purchase the full game.
should I wait for the next expansion (not sure if that's any time soon). also, do deals happen frequently?
Depends if you're on steam or standalone
Steam is usually once a year, standalone is usually around holidays and events
currently playing on ps5, but will probably eventually get for pc as well
it says in "the princess and the fish" description to go to nym river and use crayfish balls to bait a princess trout..... but it says that the bait i'm using may not be suited for this location
Nothing confirmed, but we may see a discount on Shadowbringers once Endwalker is available for pre order.
You may be at the wrong fishing hole
idk how wrong this is
that's not nym river
That's skylift
you're close tho
Which counts as a different fishing hole
Yeah it's kinda nonsensical
It gets better in the expansions thankfully
Is there going to be another region of Bozja coming out?
yes
@twilit arch ty
so im new to the game, i picked a light sever and my friend picked a chaos one, can we not play together?
No, you have to at least be on the same datacenter currently.
6.0 is bringing cross-datacenter travel, but we don't know yet what its limits will be.
something that helped me is buying a few 'versatile lures', then pay attention to the chat when you fish in a new spot. Your first catch will say 'data added on X' where X is the spot you're fishing in.
Is there somewhere to store furniture other than inventory/saddlebag if you don't have a house/room?
Retainers
Oh, forgot about them. There's some furniture/clothing that if I trash it I'll never be able to get it back?
Mostly just seasonal items.
if its seasonal stuff, you'd have to buy from mogstation store
But that same stuff you can store in the armoire for free, right?
the armor ye
Okay, I'll just trash any non-seasonal stuff I don't immediately love then, thanks
what is the point of cast light....
Fishing didn't used to have the ! !! !!! indicators. Pole wiggle and sound helped determine the strength of the hook. The light helped with the pole wiggle.
I'm thinking of re subscribing but I dont know what job I want to play, I'm cool with any role but I prefer tank>dps>heal and i kinda want to play something that kinda plays slow if that makes sense, by which i mean, long GCD with high impact actions, I prefer melee but it's not required.
Warrior :d
so like WAR?
Literally only two oGCDs and you only use one on cooldown every 30 seconds
Every other oGCD is just defensive buffs
can i make a new charcater on a diffrent server?
What are the % tresholds for E12S P1?
always, unless you hit the character cap
when i make a new character it seems to automatically put me in light
Go back to the title screen and select the datacenter option
got it thanks
what does fishing collect do?
Thanks!😍
what are collectibles?
items you can turn in to the house of splendors in any of the major cities/settlements for yellow/white scrips
scrips being like crafter/gatherer tomestones
So apperantly I got some armor pieces on a level 13 MSQ in ARR. Those got deleted a long time ago. Now it seems like I need those pieces for a new MSQ at lv 60. How do I get them back ? 😮
Could you give us the quest name?
if its for honorable heroes, you should've received another set after talking to talebot
/isearch
what's the use for all the gordian/midan stuff looted i nthe various alexander wings ?
Outdated gear
Can someone please tell me what I've already read 800 times since this game launched?
It gets a lot better at the end of ARR, right? Currently lv 48 on my first job (BLM) and MAN... The bones of this game are great but ARR has been a pretty major slog.
Someone please pat my head and tell me it'll be ok (and whether or not I should switch to red mage for a while or max BLM first)
thanks, I'll drop it then takes way too much space
Yes
the end of ARR is where it gets good
It gets better
if you want to switch to red mage then switch to red mage
For if you should switch: Play what you like, all jobs are good
The story is great, but the way SE set it up is terrible, they made it under heavy time constraints and what not. At the end of ARR they got a bit of breathing room and after that became much, much better at getting that story across in a good way
ARR is just like... season 1 of a TV show
it's a lot of world building, establishing characters, places, concepts etc, but towards the end things start to get moving and interesting as you move into season 2 (HW)
Gotcha. That's what Ive read a lot over the years. This is the first time I haven't bounced off after a week or so - I am loving the game itself but MAN what a slow burn the story is
i imagine its more enjoyable if you understood what happened in 1.0
its a wack situation
I bought this upon the relaunch way back in the day. I've read the synopsis a few times but I never played 1.0
what's an individual/shared macro?

Shared macros are across your characters
Individual aren't
the main villain is either a close friend you've spent a long time with or someone you've had maybe 3 convos with
both are very real possibilities
So to keep this more question focused: I'm strongly considering switching to red mage once I'm able to unlock it in two levels.
Is that a dumb idea, given I'll just be completing ARR and had been BLM the entire time? Or does it truly not matter at all?
Got my blm to 80 yesterday
Not like you need to catch up somehow
Still at level 72 quests
So much wasted expx.x
If the levelcap goes up you think extra exp will roll over?
No
nope
It's gone forever
Oh, so literally no setback. Nice.
I just need more utility/survivability. BLM isn't hard per se, but I am finding myself wanting more mobility/heals.
Otherwise we would be 90 day 1
Just wish square would do some thing about that wasted gold
Thats literally like a mil exp perquest wasted lel
I mean you could just swap jobs
Yeah but i cant do level 80 quests then
It isnt hard to catch back up
Dancer and gunbreaker start at 60
Red mage and samurai at 50
Only if you purchased Stormblood
They're 80 already
Nvrm
I got alldlc
I got sammy
Red mage is in the markets
What class should i be
whatever you want?
How do you get fanfest minions? Purchasable for 2 days during the event?
they'll be added to the mogstation shortly after fanfest starts
They'll be on mogstation this year
you buy them on mog station
limited time or?
Whats that
There's no time limit on them
ok cool thanks
Fanfest is a convention (though this year its going to be digital since covid), where the devs announce the next expac and give us information on it
we already had endwalker announced in feb, so the upcoming fanfest is going to be giving us the rest of the information on endwalker, and the 2nd job that will be coming with it
sage being announced back in feb when they announced endwalker
Pick one based on you liking the theme, playstyle, weapon imo
That's when fanfest is
is fanfest usually only in EU
nah
so theres an NA fanfest? 
Usually 1 fanfest for each region
there was one in NA, Paris, China, and Japan for ShB
there's always 3 fanfests
one in each region
usually 1 in oct/nov, with 2nd being in feb and 3rd in...like march iirch
based on previous releases, how long do we need to wait before augmented crypt weapons are available with alliance raid coins or nuts?
CN/KR have their own fanfests but do it at different times than global
since relics will be BiS?
usually the weapon augment is at the same time as savage unlock
how od i get an extra retainer from my ff14 companion app?
im looking all over and cant find it
Pay for the premium subscription service
so the free plan wont get me a retainer?
No
Time to uninstall
Most install it for the emote and yeet it
Just automatically added
you get it automatically
so once i downloaded the app
if you want an extra retainer its less costly to buy mogstation than do premimum sub of the companion app
I get it
yes
Heck yea!
Downloaded and linked your account but yeah
If I just want my retainer to bring back money, do quick exploration right?
retainers dont bring back money
Most people who get extra retainers (like meee) need more inventory space
I mean bringing back stuff that can be sold for money
yes you do quick exploration
Nice
unless gathering gets more
!mounts
!mount
#kupo-bot-spam
whats the command lol
Not here
#kupo-bot-spam
thanks!
@ripe hound depends on what they bring back
I see
I finally finished ARR msq and went to the Next expansion msq. All of suddenly my chocobo is not flying. 😦
Yep
!faq flying
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
Cause it's unlocked per zone
Because you need to get all Aether currents to fly in HW areas
Sad
Only ARR has that exception where you can fly in ARR areas without restrictions
Because ARR flying was added in 5.3
And ARR is years old now
I see.
Is triple flare possible?
so i'm new to the game and bought smth from the online shop but i dont know how ill get it in my ingame inventory
Might have to talk to the Mail Mog
Quad flare is possible with Ethers if you wanna meme
Be patient and it will be mailed to you
It takes time
You'll get a mail notification when it has come
quad flare big damage in dungeons
So is damage pot
well thats for sure but is it just like a pop up ingame or do i have to go to someone?
ever want to see a trash pack disappear?
To the mail

Idk how to flare the quad
You don't have 300 grade 4 pots ren? 
youre telling me a quad flared this flare?
Never even tripled onex.x
You just have 1 heart » flare > flare > manafont > flare > ether > flare
For the quad
the combo is (triplecast) flare (swiftcast) flare (manafont) flare (ether) flare
screen shots
you need the 1 umbral heart though
I wanna flare like a mad man!
it's like level 68 or 72 when the hearts let you keep some mana after flare
68
oh yeah and 72 is when you don't have to transpose anymore
?
Tranpose in combat anyway
EXPLAIN
you also don't need full mana when reentering fire phase
!trait Aspect Mastery
at 72 you can cast an ice spell for free
You got this
when at 0 mana
When you got despair
so you can just freeze after hitting 0 mana
instead of previously having to transpose
No wonder it works
Freeze/blizzard 3 at 0 mana
And im like wtf 0 mp but i freeze anyway
then at like 76 or some shit you get umbral soul
Yes
I always did transposw to keep it
if you ever lose eno-chan you messed up
what does unending journey do in the inn? it plays cutscenes from the story quests?
so in order to make some screenshots I don't even need to launch the mission in the NewGame+
you don't no
wooow, devs are really breathtaking
New game plus is if you wanna read npc text
you also don't need to have full mana when reentering fire phase for aoe
Or do some solo instance again
don't have to find a mana tick
Like GUMDAM instance
you can reenter fire with 6k mp
Freeze and fire 2 need moar aoe
fire 2
yeah uh get that the fuck off your bar lol
unless you're still low level
in which case ok
pre level 18 dungeon as THM
is there any worth using blizz 2 against a pack of mobs?
!faq blmleveling
!action Blizzard II
so do i instantly use blizz 2
you've heard of ice mage, now get ready for F2 mage
Damag
Any advice for the resistance weapon katana?
Isn't it Crit > DH > whatever?
assuming he's got his SKS tier yeah
Anyone happen to know Ravana's VA?
so basically once i max crit and determination, the rest of the points can be wild card at this point
If im leveling an alt in Bozjan, will I still get drops to upgrade my main's Resistance weapon?
If you don't care about reaching Skill Speed tiers, ye
how do I chat to the dungeon/raid group?
If you're on the steps for stuff to drop in Bozja yes
party chat
I assume so. I'm just killing stuff at Rank 2, just started in here on an alt.
When you try to cast a spell but melee kills it before you cast lel
got it thanks
ah thanks
And you're on the quest step to drop memories, ye?
White mage....
I got some from Fates in HW so I believe so?
Just cant decide on next class reeeeeee
You don't need to be on the job to get memories
Then ye they should drop, just be aware they're at lower rate of drop than FATEs
No shadowbringers relic step requires you to be that job to collect the item
Im not good with too many commands thats why i chose blmx.x
Yeah my main goal in here is to level alt and progress something in the meantime for relic.
blm requires being good at using their movement abilities
DRG has an awful lot of commands, it seems
not really

its pretty average for a dps
Blm big dps
Dragoon?
healers have the least amount of buttons to worry about unless youre paired with a really shit team
It's got a lot of buttons
dragoon is a little less than 1.5 xhb for me
i think GNB has the most unique buttons at 29
no i think its sam
SAM has like 23
anyone play mnk here? if so, what do I do if my SkS is too high rn with augmented exarchic, so my 2nd RoF after following saltedXIV opener comes up right after I refresh demolish?
I remember SMN at some point or other had like four hotbars full?
In past expansions that is
When my duty action buff in Bozjan expires, does it get consumed? I don't see why I can carry 2 Lost Shells other than it consumes them.
samurai doesnt fit on 2 hotbars for me
You'll be trading gear out with cryptlurker and nier stuff
If you swap out an action or it runs out of charges it's gone
So if you swap shell out for another skill, you'll need another shell to get it back
These hurt me
Oh, but after the 30 mins I can just keep popping it
Yes because it has unlimited charges
Okay I see what you mean. ty.
Some.skills like Cure 2 has charges
I wonder how powerful would be a person wielding Midgardsormr eye. What do you think? How powerful he is in comparison to primals, let's say
not that powerful
#archived-lore-spoilers they'd have a better answer
this is more for ingame help and such
how far are you in the story
I just finished Shadowbringers
Congrats
then you know that ||ilberd used them to summon shinryu||
thanks
||nah thatwas nidhogg||
I didn't start further patches quests, is it safe to open?
its post HW spoilers
@remote lintel I finished shadow bringers too but i didn't know that happened because I didn't pay attention to story

Well, yes. Midgardsormr is by far stronger, than Nidhogg
We haven't seen middy's eyes at all
We don’t exactly know Midgardsormr’s full power anyway but he’s still hella strong
Could molly whop most primals
a single eye is probably close to a primal but not the same
i mean niddy is lvl 60 and middy is lvl 70 at their heights of power
I think he can 1vs1 any primal we saw in the game
1vs2 even
Well most primals are dangerous because they temper
aye, omw
Without tempering they’re just flashy beasts
they talk about dragons and primals
Ye
Freshly summoned primals aren't that strong since they haven't had time to consume aether to power up
No it depends on your level and what level your content is that you get queued into
No, it gives more bonus for lower level dungeons to compensate for the dungeon itself giving less xp than a higher one for example
Ye, it's only a matter of charging. But still. Midgardsormr is the first dragon, right? Considering he ||stripped us from the blessing, and I still didn't understand why||, he might be on pair with Hydalin herself?
Perhaps...we don't know how strong he is
Also not like you can actually like, force the roulette to give you something high level unless you have a premade party
Btw can you explain why he did that, that was very confusing. Maybe I didn't translate it properly
I believe we know how long he has been around at least, cause his arrival and stuff is briefly gone over in the Omega raid lines
It was a test
I see
I'm a little hesistant to keep this going because it feels more like a discussion than a proper question and help since this is all massively speculative but I would just add ||that part you mentioned coud be easily explained by the "pact" that he and Hydaelyn made and just would allow him to do that||
He wanted to see if you yourself were strong enough or just mooching
I thought the test itself was what after that, but seems it was the part of it
Yeah ||he just wanted to see if you are strong by yourself and wasn't just getting hard carried by the blessing of light||
Is that a fact? About the pact. I feel like I missed a lot of stuff during conversation with him
||Then you got all the crystals back, broke his seal and he's like "alright you're strong, I trust you and will aid you||
ye, I remember that
There is more on Middy and his arrival in the Omega raids if you ever wanna dive into that bit
ye, I'll do that eventually
The House That Death Built <= i unlocked this dungeon but failed to complete it. Curious to find out who that woman NPC that showed up in the initial cut scene.
||the part about it allowing him to strip your blessing is simply reasonable speculation as a possible cause that I would offer since you weren't sure how he did it. Of course it could just be Middy being...a motherfucking OG dragon but ya whatever||
Is there a question?
Yes
You just want to know who she is?
that's a deep dungeon, not a dungeon
and if you want to know just progress thru the levels in a group and you'll find out
Is she the final boss of that dungeon or something? Am I missing an important story if I don’t complete that dungeon?
Just gonna say...you know this women if you're speaking of the white women
From ALLLLLLL the way back
It's a dark story
So it is easier if I group up with people? I tried solo and failed.
there is a matchmaking system for it lol
I'd you want to solo palace you need high aetherpool gear
youre not supposed to solo it unless you want to lose your sanity
So yeah
no kinda and no btw
its a long side story but its interesting
The story of potd is a Continuation/ending of Tam tara
she was the person you met from the very first dungeon who kept the severed head of her boyfriend
I said it was dark
Weird lady
And there's more about her in Tam Tara hard
she in tam tara hard i think
not weird but... traumatized
Also a creepy pasta about her in the game
and she's like, what, 16 or 17
There is a very very very minisual chance she'll spawn randomly as a untagged npc
Just watching you
And will vanish when approached
pog thanks
16 yes
how do i apply to a FC in game?
i found one on community finder website on my desktop that I think looks nice but idk how to apply in game
ohhhhhh
apply
seems really simple thank you
If you buy shadowbringers DLC, does it give any play time?
So i finished my main quest line and wanna level another job now as i heard if i level arcanist i can level summoner and scholar at the same time is that correct?
Okay also i must buy shadowbringers or just sub to play samurai?
Buy shadowbringers
you need shb
Cause it's a stormblood job
okay got it last question when i buy shadowbringers it doesnt come with 30day sub right
.
only the complete edition or starter edition
from lvl 50+ where should I look for armor to buy? the battlecraft armorer in ul'dah market only has stuff up to lvl 49
ironworks until 55
Poetics gear
How do items (potions) in Lost Finds work in Bozjan? Do they get consumed permanently and I have to find more, or do they replenish after a while? Can't find any info on it.
Okay thank you
Mor Dhona or sundry splendors for ironworks
ironworks is where?
@lilac bloom theyre 1 time use
So I have to roll for more. Thanks.
can't buy?
poetics is what?
Currency you get from doing 50/60/70 content
You start getting after doing castrum and praeotirum for the story
Which gives you 600 to start
yep XD
Codes need to be generated
from the mog station
you can always upgrade to collectors
its the same price
what does ARR stand for?
no
so if I'm lvl 50 does that mean I beat ARR?
no
No
no
no
it just means youre lvl 50
You got post arr to go
how do I know when I finish it
youll know
Youll see a second credit scree
when you get to a cutscene with HEAVENSWARD in bigass letter across your screen
when you get the msq to the point where you see "HEAVENSWARD"
And then that
alright
and the msq accept noise changes
You got.80 quests after Ultimate weapon to go
got some quests to take care of then 💪
so if I don't have shadowbringers, max level is 70 🤔
huh
Yes but the free trial/starter edition doesn't come with Stormblood which is 60 -> 70
Stormblood cap was 70
Shadowbringers includes Stormblood
@remote lintelhow long it takes usually to "restock" the collectors edition?
even tho its digital lol
lol
any recommended guides to materia? i've never used or figured out how to make materia out of old spiritbonded gear.
also, should I just vendor all my old gear from leveling thru ARR? or look into desynth or something else?
why do people want poetics even at max level?
where is the pugilist guild?
Money
money?
Uldah

why are poetics good for money lol
Hello, friends. I have a question on behalf of a friend. He is crrently playing the Heavensward free trial via the square enix client. Will he be able to link it to steam later on? He has some csgo skins money that he could use to buy the xpaks and credit some game time. Thanks in advance.
Yes
If he buys on steam yes
You can go from the non-steam free trial to steam
Which is nice because the reverse isn't possible
I'm getting weird lag sorry (or is it Discord?)
I think my xiv analysis is drunk?
No your gauss and richos really brought it down
I mean how could I miss like half of my Guass and Richo?
xivanalysis behaves... strangely on old content
I think Xivanalysis ignored half of my casts for some reason?
Yeah I was just hitting a dummy
If it was dummy then probably not counting overkill
Oh, that make sense
I did a parse of void ark for kicks once and it said I had 0% uptime on my dots
It's weird on dummies with overkill
Thanks!
Why is MCH low on the fflog totem pole? Only thing it can do is dps isn’t it? Like SAM it is a selfish DPS.
Thanks!
because its a physical ranged
Because Ranged dps tax, range dps themselves are lower in general cause they have 100% uptime
so it automatically does less dmg than the other roles
how to open a list of quests you did? I want to see what last quest I completed
That’s sad. Kinda contraindicated. Physical ranged so low dps by default but dev made it as a selfish dps anyway.
Every role bar tanks has a self role if we discount party mitigation
MCH can still enjoy high-end content right? Or people rather take Dancer or Bard instead of MCH?
This thing
all jobs are viable
all classes do endgame content
Cool. Thx
Anyone use the companion app know if they show a sales history? Even in-game it doesn’t always show how many gil you gain. I’ve seen people say the app is supposed to be better.
it tells you in game
Of course, and they do a decent job within their role. The thing that makes the ranged role decent for a group in high end content isn't really strict dps output (which is less needed in prog where class balance matters), but Tactician/Shield Samba/Troubadour being able to affect all damage types, at any time, without targetting anything.
if you go to a retainer and hit "view sale history"
can you buy level 50 gear with alagan tome stones of poetics?
Ironworks
np
which would go faster now, leveling roulette or highest level dungeon? or do they just match in xp
roulette
Roulette daily then highest level
should be doing leveling roulette once a day and then highest lvl dungeon spam (barring 50/60/70 dungeons)
ah so that big xp i got only occurs once a day, I see
Without the bonus you're just getting the dungeons normal xp so it's pretty bad afterwards
That’s not a sales history and this is referring to the app. I know there is one in-game. But I’m not on console right now, the purpose of the app.
I don't know about the app, but you said even in-game which is not true. It does show you in game what you earn.
it does tell you what you sold and for how much in game
idk if there is one for the app
Like... https://i.imgur.com/Mkx4Y44.png
If you're not referring to market sales, then idk what you're asking about
for haunting and vexatious memories, the fate drop rate is super low 😦
someone suggested i do beast tribes for 15+ jobs but i just searched for it and it seems to be unlocked at lvl 41 msq am i getting it confused for something?
then do it at 41
just wanted 2 make sure
rng is rng it do be like that. queue for the alliance raids while you wait
^
It's streaky, like all RNG is. You'll go a dry patch and suddenly 1 2 3 4 drop.
is savage unlock 5.58
No one is sure, but it might be 5.55. For reference, the equivalent patch was when they did so in Stormblood.
I stg this game has some crazy raid boss mechanics
hmm ok Kawaiian ty
It's just Simon says but Simon has a gun
e8s baby
Are there expensive chocobo barding in ffxiv?
ye
Some can be yes
depends on the MB
Can you ball park it?
I think the most expensive for a short while was the Diamond barding from Diamond Weapon
But it went down in price
Does anyone happen to know how much revelation a DR clear gives?
If you want to make money and end up doing high level stuff
So I can sell and get glm
Try queuing up for the new extremes or whatnot
10 iirc
ty!
hades EX will probably be a good farm for a few days
Note that barding doesn't directly drop
np see you on sunday
It's crafted
LR is Simon says but everyone has a gun
so stalin says then?

Sure, I had a Stalin in my verse static, 150 pulls of lr
ye
Got the diamond weapon 1 not bbad
How do I sell things on MP?
Via retainers
Is it possible to do a solo engagement in bozja with a dps class?
ok
How do I get a retainer?
You need the required actions for that fight (or know how to extremely abuse lost actions to kill it before they're needed) and some form of healing, like Essence of the Beast or resistance pots
Nvm found the npc
For duels
Oh, and Resistance reraisers to try and save your ass
Without the required actions for duels (or a lucky reraisers or two) you're guaranteed to fail
can you get cute clothes on free trial
Does my retainers name have to be completely unique?
Yes
On your server, yes
Weird... can't I only see it?
It’s seen in market board listings
It's the name you see on market board
OH
Okay okay makes sense ty
Hmm, how can I check the price of what an item is generally going for so I can sell it at a similar price?
When listing a item, there's an icon in the top right
Little page icon
To show that items listing
Thanks a million

Is there any way to encourage HQ drops from enemies? Just regular ones, not dungeons or anything
is there a way to hide the UI on console? would be nice for fishing
Nope
L1 + press the touchpad in
mind blown. thank you!
Have anyone heard about discord causing lag in game?
I noticed that I had significantly more lag in game while raiding in Savage.
It was really weird, then my static mates mention it could be discord
so it's just a random chance, then?
yes
kk ty
and btw, dungeon enemies no longer drop loot
I'm just killing wolves in Dragonshead
check out the item on lodestone database, they might sell it at a vendor for a higher price
I didn't see it listed as for sale anywhere on the gamerescape wiki....
then prob not
Wolf Fangs, specifically
other options if you wanna farm
I'm good, but thanks! I'm just running circles around this big rocky bit lmao
just buy them from mb
on trial
Well ... killing mobs for stuff in this game is rough
I GET ONE AND MY INVENTORY IS FULL
The Chocorpokkur was originally a valentine's campaign in JP right?
was trying to figure out why it has the heart particle effect, valentine's seems the most on the nose reason
gear not matter in bojza?
not over 430
Generally, what does it take to get permanently banned? I know there are some people who are very into erp and stuff, but do people ever get banned for that sort of stuff? I'm guessing no, but if so, what does it take?
Christmas is a date holiday in Japan
I'v never met a GM but I've seen that even people who make pornographic content from the game just get a warning
gear over 430 do not matter. but you must have gear in every slot, unlike deep dungeons
it scales up all gear you have
Hello, I have a question regarding the trial version of FFXIV. I'm currently running through the trial version of FFXIV through the standalone launcher from their site. And I'm enjoying it a lot and am considering buying the game. However I would prefer to buy it through steam as I find it easier to manage subscriptions from that platform. Would I still be able to use the same account to play through steam?
If you buy the game on Steam, you can continue playing on the same account
what level do i unlock samurai
Doesn't work the other way around though (Steam trial to non-Steam full account)
Yes. Steam does however require you to use a CD key once you purchase shadow bringers that you need to upgrade your game version.
50, assuming you also own stormblood
You have to go to mogstation I believe and it'll ask you to input the CD key steam gave you in order to upgrade.
@twilit archto get stormblood i have to buy shadow bringer?
if you own starter edition, then ye just buy shadowbringers
if you don't own starter edition, easier to just buy complete since its effectively the same as buying starter+shadowbringers but its once nice neat package
is the starter edition the only way to get it through steam?
steam's complete edition is basically a bundle
like regardless of how you go about buying it, it'll be roughly the same price
ignoring any sales
will I still get the 30 day sub form the starter if I am already participating in the trial?
yes
bet, bet, big ty
are there any cons to doing this through steam? im not playing myself right? 
if i buy the shadowbringer on steam i have to go mogstation to get it also?
the main "downside" of steam is that you're locked into steam for any and all future purchases
so if you prefer to buy games on sale, then steam isn't that great cos it doesnt go on sale often
*future expansion purchases
you can buy stuff off mogstation and the online store w/o needing to go through steam
yes everyone goes thru mogstation for acct. management
What place am I missing?
??? is basically a place holder map
that's just a generic listing for non-world zones
its for stuff that isn't in any of the current zones
or instances
right now the return to ivalice raids are the only things listed under it
Got it!
bet, big thanks
Very interesting
shd i delete the steam one and play on the launcher
do you really care about sales that much?
if you're already on steam you must play through steam
I personally like sales, but am in a position where they are NOT necessary
also if you're someone who makes use of steam wallet a lot then that's a pretty big upside to buy thru steam
as you can use that for sub/optional items
do they update the content the same time or like steam has to take longer
there is no difference between non-steam and steam game wise
all you're doing is buying the license thru steam
thats it
The steam version doesn't use Steam's own patching/updating system. It uses the FF14 launcher to update.
I'm just more comfortable with using steam to manage subscriptions, so its a preference
I keep hearing that the firmament is the best place to level crafting stuff, but the restoration is over so how exactly are people using it to level?
Firmament isn't gone
the only thing that's no longer happening is the changes to the zone
can still turn in items
How?
Just make the stuff
Like where do I find what its look for?
Theres a lot of materials with the prefix Skybuilder, am I to guess these aren't found in normal places?
In the diadem, a massive place to gather them
Just brain off, spam your node finder skill and swing away
!faq diademmap
You basically do a giant circle around the map
ahh ok thats what I thought
so Im looking at the mog station, and from what I can tell its just an oddly named account manager?
if i buy the game on steam where do i get the code?
and in the online store, im seeing stuff like tales of adventure: stormblood, which i believe is an expansion, correct me if Im wrong about this, but is this like ESO in terms of expansions. where you can buy an expansion for permanent use, but if ur subscribed you get all expansions except the most recent one
Right click then steam keys
Those are story skips
On the store
Yes, tales of adventure are skips
so no per expansion buying for perm ownership, just sub and most recent expansion are, in terms of utility, the only real purchases necessary
the base game, the dlc, and a sub are what you need
the base game automatically gives you 30 days
You need to buy the game, expansion then sub to keep playing
Complete edition has game and expansion in one package
so on steam, the starter edition, shadowbringers, then sub after would be like, im all set
it's best to think of the expansion as an 'expansion pass' since it grants you access to all previous expansions if you don't have it already
yes
the expansion or the sub?
Starter edition + shadowbringers OR complete edition, then a sub after 30days
the expansion
so if i have sub i cant access any expansion except base and first one?
you cant buy sub until you own the base game
Without a sub after buying the game you can't log in
ye, so if i buy starter edition rn, on steam, can i access everything BUT shadowbringers
no
You get arr and heavensward
you can access ARR and Heavensward
you cant access stormblood and shadowbringers
then what happens when the new expansion drops, would you lose access to shadowbringers and stormblood again?
no
No
no, since you already own them
Gotta pay up again
oh so just first time thing since i own nothing rn
For access to new stuff
yes
bet, big thanks to all.
is there a list of every active help that exists?
I apologize greatly if this isn't the correct channel to post this. I was curious if anyone is able to help me. So I just tried to get the newest patch to play and I was having issues with the normal FFXIV launcher giving me an error saying it was unable to download patch files [30413]. It was suggested to me to try getting the patches from the goatcorp ffxiv quicklauncher. I tried it, I was able to get a few patches done but i'm now running into similar issues.
Thank you! I'll post in there.
do u get any like mount minion or glam for getting the complete edition of the game or somethin?
no
can HQ food not be bought off market?
It can
not vendors
anyone happen to know stats for HQ zefir?
!item Zefir
*An irresistibly soft and airy confectionary made from whipped twilight apple purée.

(Duration can be extended to 60m by consuming multiple servings)*
8% [86] (10% [108] HQ)
8% [143] (10% [179] HQ)
8% [208] (10% [260] HQ)
curious if sps is better than hq pickled herring
I think thats the normal version that I can buy off market...
look it up on the mb
oh i didnt read
cant find it there. just see the 510 normal verion thats 8% 143
confused why 480 pickled herring is 10% 168 max
and wondering if 510 hq zefir is a thing and if it gives me boost
!item Pickled Herring
*Succulent chunks of platinum herring marinated in vinegar and topped with finely sliced lemonette to give it a hint of tang.
EXP Bonus: +3% Duration: 30m
(Duration can be extended to 60m by consuming multiple servings)*
8% [81] (10% [101] HQ)
8% [134] (10% [168] HQ)
8% [172] (10% [215] HQ)
ahhh i see hq is in []
so it is better.., there just is none on bryn market
if youre looking for bis then check the balance
yeah. I'm just trying to hit 3650 sps for BLM jp opener and am at 3647
101 and 108 on Dh wont really change much
bis calls for zefir so i bought a bunch and realized its not hq so that explains it thank you!
Food in Bis is always Hq
yeah just figured it would be on market but i guess not
check other worlds
will do. appreciate the help 😉
Any experienced BLMs? I have a few specific questions as I’m trying to maximize dps
should I use Blood Weapon and Delirium at the same time?
your best bet would be on the balance for questions like that
has SE announced a mogstation sale to coincide with fanfest?
looks like blood weapon is used 5 GCD's before delirium on the opener. thats what i see on the balance
not yet no
i do not know
¯_(ツ)_/¯
is summer sale incoming?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
are there scheduled sales that occur on an annual basis?
not really
so i have 300k gil and trial account. do i lose out on gil gains from quests or are they saved somewhere
you lose out
damn
will there be an all job showcase trailer at this upcoming fanfest?
probably
where should i spend my gil on?
you dont really need gil in the free trial
except to teleport around
just have to accept the loss unfortunately
you could level some crafters and spend the gil on materials
damn
maybe try spending gil in the casino? ie convert gil to MGP?
maybe stock up on some endgame food/gear or whatnot?
can't do that
you can use MGP to buy stuff
awwww i was gonna be happy
