im playing DRK

green grail
#

during things like trash pulls, general boss autos, etc shields will just fall off after 3-5 seconds and you have basically nothing left on the tank forcing you to re-apply the shield constantly

obsidian patio
#

it also has to do with MP and GCD efficiency. Assuming you don't need the shields to prevent fatal damage, diurnal is generally the better sect assuming you don't have another astrologian in the party.

#

AST regens also stack with WHM regens, unlike AST shields and SCH shields overwriting each other.

green grail
#

im not a big brain healer but even scholar, the shield healer, doesn't actually end up shielding literally all damage, most healing is either regens or just raw healing

agile laurel
#

shielding takes GCDs, unless it's seraph. And SCH has notoriously weak gcd healing

#

People cite succor and adlo calling scholar a shield healer, which is a bit misleading because they're some of your lowest priority tools by 80

void venture
#

whats the disavantage of using samurai?

agile laurel
#

there isn't one really?

green grail
#

play what you like

fringe bone
#

anyone know why i cant leave?

green grail
#

progress msq

#

all zones get unlocked as you go through msq

cyan prairie
#

hopefully someone an help me, i changed my job from arcanist to fisherman to cook and now back to arcanist, but my quest log isn;t showing my job quest

#

it is still showing my cooking quest

#

i am on PC

potent lava
#

is bozja affected by duty finder language settings?

green grail
#

no

agile laurel
#

@cyan prairie relog?

green grail
#

if you don't have a class quest in your log then you didn't pick one up

obsidian patio
# fringe bone

talk to the chocobokeep person near the MCH guild, that bird can take you to the Coerthas Western Highlands.

cyan prairie
#

that is weird i could remember i had uncompleted quest

obsidian patio
#

Just be sure to attune to the aetheryte there

cyan prairie
#

it doesn;t show in my journal either

#

ok i will try that

cyan prairie
obsidian patio
#

hmm, try one of the airship NPCs south of the AST guild then

fringe bone
#

i did

pseudo yoke
#

so my game has started crashing on startup, error 1b1

warm snow
fringe bone
#

it says something like the air isnt clear try agai ntomorrow

warm snow
#

Have you tried talking to gibrillont at the forgotten knight?

obsidian patio
#

And you're sure the Chocobo Porter by the MCH guild doesn't have an option to Falcon's Nest?

warm snow
#

Yeah he's only just started hw

proud willow
#

your MSQ, "The Better Half", is the reason you can't go to the other zones yet

#

it's only the 3rd quest

warm snow
#

I don't think he gets access yet

#

Go progress your msq

#

Yeah he hasn't even gotten to the split quest line yet

obsidian patio
#

oh i thought the blue quest was MSQ

#

derp

pseudo yoke
#

anyone know what would cause my game to start crashing on character load?

warm snow
#

Bad connection, bad installation

#

Way too many factors

pseudo yoke
#

well i mean it was fine until now

#

error codes 1b1

warm snow
#

Only solution I've seen so far just rebooted

broken star
#

Hey this might be a dumb question but why can't I use some of my actions like raw intuition, equilibrium, fell cleave and decimate? I'm a level 69 warrior but it keeps saying 'action not learned yet'?

warm snow
#

Are you in a dungeon/solo duty etc?

patent citrus
#

job quest?

#

sync'd content?

warm snow
#

And have you been keeping up with your job quests?

broken star
#

I'm not in a dungeon, I know it syncs you to a lower level then right?

#

I thought I'd finished my warrior job quests...

ancient pendant
#

They add more every expansion

broken star
#

Is there a way to find out? I'm pretty sure I finished them... Lol

warm snow
#

You get new sets of job quests every expansion

broken star
#

Ooohhhh

#

Haha i didn't know that

patent citrus
#

job quest and main scenario quest main priority

#

don't skip them

ancient pendant
#

Luckily, it should pop up right under the MSQ tracker in the top left.

green grail
#

also the skills you listed are exactly the ones unlocked through HW job quests

broken star
#

I think I turned that off (the msq tracker in the top right corner)

#

Ahhh okay, that would be why i don't have them then haha

#

Thank you

#

I'll figure out where to pick up my next job quest

#

Thank you!

patent citrus
#

why would you turn that off? o_o

#

oh well

warm snow
#

You can set it to disable itself automatically when you get up to date, but I'd recommend leaving it on as it'll show when job quests are available

broken star
#

I turned it off cause I have a tiny computer screen and I wanted less clutter haha

patent citrus
#

ic ic

warm snow
#

Also at the end of your arr job quests you're told a new series of quests will open once you begin heavensward

#

Same goes with stormblood

broken star
#

But yes, just turned it back on and can confirm that I have a level 50 job quest waiting for me lol πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

warm snow
#

unamewsed slight judgement

broken star
#

Ahhh yup yup i think i remember that happening haha

#

Totally fair on the judgement hahaha

warm snow
#

Anyways priorities should be job quests > msq until the end of stormblood

#

Otherwise it's like only using 3 Chambers in a revolver you've been playing severely nerfed

broken star
#

Sweet, yeah I'm up to date on the msq I just forgot all about the job quests once i finished ARR ones

#

Hahaha

warm snow
#

Also you get gear at the level cap of the expansion

#

Which is very necessary in stormblood as you won't get access to poetics gear til you finish the msq

broken star
#

Yep been finding it really hard to pull in level 60 dungeons and that's probs why

Okay thanks!

#

I've got a lot of catching up to do now but at least I'll have access to these actions soon lol

warm snow
#

Have fun, I the warrior stormblood quests are some of my favourites

#

Also your level 70 job quest is VERY VERY important

#

As it gives your BEST skill

#

Hell yeah I love beserk that sounds awesome 😎

obsidian patio
#

Yeah, Inner Release is Berserk times 10 in how powerful it feels

!faq meta @void venture

How FFXIV's Meta Works

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

leaden ginkgo
#

when doing athenian manipulation does collectability matter?

patent citrus
jade quartz
#

The purity rating and items you get are determined by collectibility.

warm snow
#

Higher collectability = better items

leaden ginkgo
#

are maps at higher levels like 80 from shb mining/botany deposits ?

warm snow
#

Yup

leaden ginkgo
#

trying to find one now they can be from anywhere right i’m in lakeland

warm snow
#

Mining nodes n of Fort jobb, trees ne of ostall

#

Rotate between nodes as a map isn't guaranteed

leaden ginkgo
#

ok i see

robust notch
#

Is there any kind of in-depth Bozja/Delubrum guide when it comes to gear, potions and lost actions?

#

I've tried looking around, but I haven't found much

warm snow
#

!faq bozjadrops

zinc orbitBOT
robust notch
#

I meant more in regards to "Which lost actions should you use?"

#

Because I don't understand the DPS in Delubrum. I see plenty of people between 11-15k dps, but then there's some guy up there at 25k dps

#

and I just don't see how?

proud willow
#

Lost Flare is pretty OP

obsidian patio
#

Healers and tanks get pretty powerful essences for them to make them into pseudo DPS

proud willow
#

as is Lost Seraph Strike

obsidian patio
#

!action Essence of the Aetherweaver

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Essence of the Aetherweaver** : lvl 0 WHM SCH AST (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases damage dealt by 80%.
Effect ends upon reuse.
Cannot be used with other Essence or Deep Essence actions.

warm snow
#

!action deep essence of the aetherweaver

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Deep Essence of the Aetherweaver** : lvl 0 WHM SCH AST (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases damage dealt by 96%.
Effect ends upon reuse.
Cannot be used with other Essence or Deep Essence actions.

warm snow
#

Iirc theres an even stronger green one too

obsidian patio
#

There's an even stronger one, but it cripples their healing

#

!action Deep Essence of the Profane

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Deep Essence of the Profane** : lvl 0 WHM SCH AST (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces healing potency by 70% while increasing damage dealt by 120%.
Effect ends upon reuse.
Cannot be used with other Essence or Deep Essence actions.

robust notch
#

I currently use Aetherweaver when I heal, Skirmisher when I DPS and Martialist if I tank

pulsar escarp
#

literal green dps

robust notch
#

But I'm guessing the 25k+ dps guys just use Lost Flare and shit?

obsidian patio
#

Making use of Banners and actions like Seraph Strike are also big damage boosters

#

yep, lost flare is basically a personal LB if you can handle the extreme MP Cost as anything but BLM

robust notch
#

Going from RuneScape to FFXIV makes me realise how shit the FFXIV wikis are

#

The RuneScape wiki spoils you

#

But hey, at least I can ask people here blobgiggle

#

I'll look into all that, ty!

warm snow
#

The gamer escape wiki is pretty good but the console games wiki is unreliable

obsidian patio
#

i only like console games wiki for a few select pages, like the Main Scenario Quest list.

#

since it's a good way to gauge progress through the story.

robust notch
#

Gamerescape is sooooo slow like 80% of the time I use it

#

It has better info overall than consolegames though

obsidian patio
#

if you want a pure database-style website, there's garland tools.

robust notch
#

Yeah, I use garland all the time

#

It just doesn't have info regarding "tips and tricks" type stuff

warm snow
#

Just like programming the best skill to have is Google fu

pallid bluff
#

how much should tanks pull on early dungeons? <lvl 40 and such

robust notch
#

As much as possible

obsidian patio
#

depends on the party make-up and dungeon

warm snow
#

As much as you feel comfortable doing, but you should be able to handle at least 2 packs at once

boreal storm
#

As much as they can handle

obsidian patio
#

some DPS don't get their aoes until much later, like dragoon and ninja, and summoner to a lesser extent

storm plume
obsidian patio
#

so only having you be the source of AoE damage can be a real drag for big pulls

robust notch
#

As a tank, you have to keep an eye on what type of healer your healer is, and how much damage your party is doing overall

#

If you see great dps, you can pull more than usual

#

It's something you get a feel for when you do dungeons more and more

#

Also, keeping your gear "updated" helps a lot as well

#

Never want to have underleveled gear when tanking

pallid bluff
vocal star
#

how bad ui change to 4k will effect the fps?

warm snow
#

So long story short, depends, but at least 2 groups would be expected

sinful storm
#

Hi, quick question, I am looking for 12 ish or more buttons mouse. Anyone have suggestions?

warm snow
robust notch
warm snow
#

Iirc there were some issues on ps5 but that's still in beta so /shrug

robust notch
#

But might have to look up reviews of some mmo mice as well

obsidian patio
#

Most of the main beta issues got fixed, like not being able to directly screenshot+share

sinful storm
#

Since I click my skills, I am looking for something better

neon egret
#

How hard is o4s

ancient pendant
#

I have a Corsair Scimitar and I like it.

neon egret
#

Sync

warm snow
#

Reasonably difficult it's the end of a tier so that's expected

#

But even synced you'll also have like 60 extra item levels compared to when it was current content

#

Also you'll have echo

neon egret
#

Kk

warm snow
#

Also has a phase 2 that's not in normal

leaden ginkgo
#

for level 60 BLM rotation, is it good idea to just spam fire IV then fire III at the end til out of mana
or use fire 1 to keep astral fire after 3 cast from Fire IV under umbral then fire IV the rest (fire III at the end)

warm snow
#

!faq blmleveling

zinc orbitBOT
#
THM/BLM leveling rotations
warm snow
#

Fire 1 to keep astral fire

sinful storm
#

Ohh wow, that bot feature exists? It will answer my future questions

warm snow
#

Only for blm

i skipped the cutscene after the bozja castrum raid because i had to go and i can't find it in the unending journey

#

help

pulsar escarp
#

how many marks would spamming frontline give you? wins/losses on average. it is 500 third/700ishsecond/1k first?

leaden ginkgo
jade quartz
#

By a landslide

warm snow
#

Not 100% I just cast fire 1 cuz it's got a faster cast time

#

Not dropping astral fire means not losing enochian which means more uptime

jade quartz
#

Astral Fire III is an 80% damage buff to your fire spells

warm snow
#

You should never ever EVER be without umbral ice or astral fire iii

pulsar escarp
jade quartz
#

Plus Enochian is another 15% multiplicatively with that

#

Also I don’t know why you’re saying fire 3 at the end?

#

You don’t use fire 3 at the end of fire phase.

#

You only use fire 3 to switch from ice to fire, or when you have a proc.

leaden ginkgo
#

πŸ‘€ i see

robust notch
sullen juniper
#

is there a way to swap between hotbars with a single key

warm snow
#

Change your keybinds

sullen juniper
#

like press sift and swapt hotbar 1 for 2 and back

robust notch
#

Why would you need to swap hotbars with a key?

#

Can't you just have hotbar 1 and 2 showing?

pulsar escarp
#

I mean you could probably do both? have hotbars showing but a modifier that.. switches them?

#

I think my friend does that actually

buoyant sorrel
#

Why do ppl join pf groups then go offline?

pulsar escarp
#

hotbar jumping

warm snow
buoyant sorrel
#

?

pulsar escarp
#

some people have their own reasons, others loot and scoot, others think it's too slow and not up to parr as a party

#

it's just smth that happens. people get mad about it pretty often and rightfully so

#

you join a farm party and it's like... you expect to be there for a while

#

shouldn't immediately leave

buoyant sorrel
#

Oh, I always felt bad for kicking them when everyone else was good to go, I was just wondering if there was a benefit to it or something

pulsar escarp
#

ohhhhhh

#

then they might have dced or just gone off

#

if you can't wait you can't wait I guesss

#

don't feel too bad

#

I might give them a bit of time but otherwise it's not sustainable if we want to get things done

buoyant sorrel
#

πŸ€” Okay, it's just a practice run that I do mostly

pulsar escarp
#

yeah dw about it

buoyant sorrel
#

Is it more efficient to to make a party through the recruitment channel here?

warm snow
#

Not usually and it'll depend on the time of day/content

strange coral
#

Depends on what you're making a party for. PF will be better in most cases since that's visible to the entire datacenter. The recruitment channel here is only visible by people here that happen to have that datacenter role.

sullen juniper
#

yes

#

thanks

warm snow
#

You might want the switch up down keybinds either

#

hi guys, when it says fixed rate drop, does it mean its 100% or just it has a hidden value for the items to drop?

rancid gull
#

thank you, and I got a question since mines is still gonna be leveling through 1-50

#

what would my rotation look like around there?

faint flare
#

Just remove skills you dont have really... Or watch Weskalbers videos

lone zephyr
#

Has the genderlock ever been removed from any mogstation glam?

rancid gull
#

I'm not familiar with Weskalber, I'm guessing he's like that chick from HW that did explainations on their openings every patch drop?

rancid gull
faint flare
#

No, he's new afaik

rancid gull
#

I'll take a look thank you for the advice

lone zephyr
rancid gull
#

By the way, with armory bonus, is PoTD faster, or would regular dungeons before the 15 min marker be faster leveling?

#

since fates

faint flare
#

Dungeons

#

Potd is for when ques are longer than 15mins

rancid gull

gotcha

#

was gonna do PoTD to help the wife with SMN rotation but she's kinda passed out

she's a MNK main lol

Can i download the ps4 free trial version on ps5 and play cuz the beta version on the ps5 has ended

You should still be able to download the PS5 trial version

Small question. What floor do u obtain the potd weapons?

leaden ginkgo
#

i just hit 80 on both gathered, i’m super broke though. how can/should i gear up my gathers?

strange coral
#

You can start with the white scrip gear, Landsaint. And then buy (MB) or craft Aesthete gear after that if you need

rancid gull
#

it can swap between genders, but that's as far as it goes at the moment. There's a couple of items that are unisex.

leaden ginkgo

anyone here able to help with the free trial version? having trouble with the installation.

Which version of the free trial, and what kind of trouble are you having?

I'm trying to launch the game for the first time then got this error

#

i’m in land kings

open coral
#

Oh the directx error.

rancid gull
#

On the launcher, you can try disabling DX11 and see if it launchs without issues? or perhaps wait for a more detailed solution

leaden ginkgo
#

mhm, also am trying to install it on windows 8. Not sure if it'll be a problem for the os

open coral

I don't think being on Windows 8 should cause a problem.

What's your graphics card by chance?

strange coral
leaden ginkgo
open coral

Although it may or may not help, make sure that Internet Explorer is up to date.

leaden ginkgo
leaden ginkgo
open coral
#

Double check to be sure. The XIV launcher runs on IE for some stupid reason, and not having it up to date can cause a whole variety of problems.

leaden ginkgo
#

will do. Also perhaps any chance that the graphics card wasn't sufficient enough for the game?

@leaden ginkgo try disabling DX11 on the launcher in the settings

#

maybe it'll launch on dx9?

#

worth a shot before you do anything more indepth

#

and yeah you do disable/enable that on the launcher

leaden ginkgo
#

it's this one right?

rancid gull
#

yes

#

if it didn't launch, it's recommended to turn that one off

leaden ginkgo
#

oh, now there's no error but weird with it didn't even want to launch

rancid gull
#

could you try closing any instances of it running on the task bar

#

and try redoing it

open coral
#

dx11 has been tossing that error for a lot of people.

rancid gull
#

it might be their video card if not OS,

leaden ginkgo
rancid gull
#

yeah, I recommend you give the bench mark a try it should give you a clue if you can run it

void venture
#

im lv 47 and the main is quest 49 what can i do to level up

I definitely think it's their card, it's 16 years old

open coral
#

Not a video, but this is basically everything you need to know as a brand new player.

trail sphinx
#

Also, while not a full ff14 youtuber, Josh Strife Hayes has a great video for learning many of the systems

open coral
#

For classes, weskalber or Larryzaur

#

Although Larryzaur's videos are a bit more meme-y

pulsar escarp
#

larry for a brief intro of roughly what it is lol and wesk for actual openers and stuff

#

larryzaur helps you get a vibe of what you want to be which is neat LMAO but anything past that, look somewhere else

open coral
#

Keep in mind too, that the game will pretty much walk you through how to play, and give you pop up tips any time you encounter any new part of the system.

pulsar escarp
#

... well.

#

I mean.

eager glade
#

A friend of mine recommended larry to me, but it's to meme for me, I will take a look at those channels you gave me

#

tnx for the help πŸ™‚

#

Remember too that the class you choose to start is not the class you have to play the entire game as.

trail sphinx

open coral
#

You can swap freely once you hit level 10 with your first class and complete the class quest at that level.

eager glade
#

yeah that's a great aspect of the game for me, really like not having to start from scratch when playing a new class

wispy basalt
#

whats the think with removing pets ?

open coral
#

I mean, you do have to start from your new class's minimum level (1 for ARR classes, 30 for HW classes, 50 for SB classes, and 60 for ShB classes).

#

But you don't have to start the entire story over again.

Flying FAQ

'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/

fringe bone
#

By doing all the msq in that expansion im guessing

open coral
#

HW, SB, and ShB zones all have 10 overworld and 5 quest currents to unlock.

faint flare
#

And collecting aether currents

open coral
#

Four of the quest currents are behind bluequest

#

The fifth is the final MSQ for that zone.

fringe bone

idk what that means

You get given a compass to locate them

Hello I have a question, I just purchased FF14 Shadowbringers Edition on Steam and I just finished making my SE account, where do I find my registration code ?

Aether currents

warm snow
#

Green wind swirls

fringe bone

right

warm snow
#

You gave a compass to help find them

fringe bone
#

Right

faint flare
#

You get given a key item to locate the field ones

fringe bone
#

who gives me that compass

faint flare
#

Other currents are unlocked by blue quests

warm snow
#

Go Travel > Aether Currents to see which ones you're missing

faint flare
#

The story

open coral
#

You'll get the compass through the MSQ

warm snow
#

You'll get it during main story

fringe bone
#

oh

#

ok

#

so keep doing msq until i get a compass

warm snow
#

Should have it by now

#

Check key items

open coral

After your initial visits to the Sea of Clouds and Coerthas

i should?

@fringe bone You'll get it after you do both of the first visits to Camp Cloudtop (where you are) and Falcon's Nest.

#

The MSQ will merge again.

Would using new Nier gear be better than the 510 Bozja for stats? The Bozja has more materia slots but the Nier is better stats overall

#

Not sure which one would be better to use

open coral

Yes

#

Yes

open coral

Higher ilevel = better

You can when the story tells you to go there

#

Read the npc text

warm snow
#

You go there with the other msq branch

faint flare

They tell you how

^ the MSQ splits into two branches there and one takes you there the other takes you to where you are now

So I equipped ny job stone and when I enter a dungeon it still shows the gladiator symbol

Sorry one more question, Is there a reason my code is coming up invalid ? Only the Shadowbringers code

You might need the base game code entered first

At work atm. But I renember it showing it when I was playing earlier

open coral

or

?

Did you remember to register the job stone to your gear set?

I'm sure you just did something wrong Didi like changing classes and swapping back and not re-equipping the stone or something Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

steam...

wintry chasm
#

ah

faint flare
#

And did you buy the starter edition on steam?

wintry chasm
#

^

celest moon
#

it was a bundle.

wintry chasm
#

so you got both huh?

#

from steam

faint flare
#

If you didn't get the starter edition from steam, and mogstation doesn't say you're a steam account you can't use it

celest moon
#

yes got both from seam

#

it made me kog into steam

wintry chasm
#

I mean, for the sake of my sanity could you take a picture of that page again but also do the bits above that table too?

open coral
#

Did you previously purchase and register the non-Steam PC version?

celest moon
#

no this is a fresh account

#

will be first time

wintry chasm
#

Like, can you just have these extra bits included?

#

It's important

open coral
#

^

wintry chasm
#

yeah okay so

open coral
#

Okay, followup question. You said you bought a bundle from Steam?

celest moon
#

yes

open coral
#

What exactly did the bundle say was included?

open coral
#

Yeah, okay

#

There's the problem

#

I think

#

Wait

#

No

#

nvm

wintry chasm
#

Yeah that seems fine

open coral
#

Misread that

wintry chasm
#

I can't read the end of the ShB code but I assume it says NA lol

open coral
#

I would hope

wintry chasm
#

Well if you are actually using the right code and it's not working contact support of some kind....I'm not sure if you go to steam support or SE support but somewhere

#

Everything suggests it should work

celest moon
#

Ok I got it

wintry chasm
#

Wait

#

actually just before you do that

celest moon
#

Just had to refresh 20 times πŸ™‚

wintry chasm
#

Oh

I literally imputed the same code

20 times

works the last time

I appreciate the both of you very much

Conclusion: Steam sucks.

#

At least when it comes to XIV stuff.

Im so Excited to start playing l0l !

this was mogstation being tempremental

elfin kelp
#

Can I get an opinion on the relic weapon quest, worth it or not? I've done up through the Atma version and disovered there's nine books worth of work for the next part.

faint flare
#

Old relics are purely glamour

twilit arch
#

its entirely up to you whether its worth the effort for glamour

#

strongly recommend tho to save it for lvl 80 when it will be much easier to complete if you're not 80 already

elfin kelp
#

my highest classes are 56

warm snow
twilit arch
#

yeah...definitely recommend putting that to the side for now

agile laurel
#

ARR relic reeks 'we haven't had chance to learn from our bad decisions yet'

warm snow
#

The augmented ironworks are just as good, if not better considering how annoying it is to get optimal materia

open coral
#

Basically, if you want the glamour, it's worth it.

elfin kelp
#

yeah the ilevel for the relic weapon is 135 at the highest version, the ironworks is already 130

open coral
#

If you're doing it to actually use, not so much.

faint flare
#

Old relics are not worth it for a functional weapon

warm snow
#

I've done them all for glamour and cuz I was bored. Still not worth it

faint flare
#

You'll be 70 by the time you're done

limber parcel
#

With astrologian, what sect do i use in dungeons?

elfin kelp
#

well the atma looks nice, back to ishgard quests I guess

faint flare
#

Diurnal 99% of the time

open coral
#

Diurnal is recommended for ease of use.

limber parcel
#

I know in 8 mans i use shield if with a WHM or regen if with a scholar

faint flare
#

Not always

limber parcel
#

Okay thanks πŸ™‚

open coral
#

But if you're comfortable with Noct then you can use that.

faint flare
#

Diurnal is fine with white mage

open coral
#

Yeah, you can double stack regens with WHM

faint flare
#

Only if you NEED Shields do you shield with white mage

#

Which is only in high end content

#

Diurnal just flat out heals more

limber parcel
#

Oh okay cool πŸ™‚ Ok thank you

open coral
#

Basically, if you're comfortable using Noct in 8-man content, and your healer is a WHM or another AST, then go for it. Otherwise, you can safely stick to Diurnal and you'll be fine.

limber parcel
#

Okay great, thank you guys

#

Hi, i'm going to give the trial of FF XIV a go, can anyone recommend a good youtube channel for info on the classes and races? I don't like going in blind and would like to get a feel of what I might want to start and enjoy before jumping in.

faint flare
#

Pins for classes

#

Races mean nothing

heavy wadi
#

^

final quarry
#

Should you play x seires if you want it in semi meme format

heavy wadi
#

Unlike wow, every race can play every class, and you can be every class on one character

frank mountain
#

Is there no story/lore difference? Exactly the same game for any race? Purely aesthetic?

agile laurel
#

iirc. yes.

heavy wadi
#

just aesthetic

fringe bone
#

is there a way to buy flight or something im getting really sick of walking all the way across the map and back

faint flare
#

Yes cause stuff is balanced here

twilit arch
#

your race has no bearing on the story, beyond a few minor dialogue notes at a few times

heavy wadi
#

There's no canon backstory for your character so you just headcanon what you want

final quarry
#

The races do have lore but you can get whatever race lore from quests as any race

agile laurel
#

there are 'stat differences' but we're talking literally so miniscule it's invisible

faint flare
twilit arch
#

the starting stats you get from races are a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of stats you get from gear

heavy wadi
#

yeah the racial stat differences are straight up insignificant

sudden wolf
#

There is no longer star differences they removed it didn’t they?

frank mountain
#

Thank you, well that makes it easier. I'll find something I like the look of. I'll check out the classes info, it is good to know you can change classes.

heavy wadi
#

the only thing that determines where you start is your starting class

twilit arch
#

no racial stats still exist

faint flare
#

There is, but it's like 3 points

twilit arch
#

they just don't matter

final quarry
#

Yea, every job below the level of your highest gets 100% more exp until 70

frank mountain
#

Is there anything else to take in to consideration?

boreal storm
#

You might get slightly different dialogue lines depending on your race, but otherwise it’s purely an aesthetic choice

final quarry
#

50% to 80

#

Uhh not really, you can basically play every job to 60 if you wanted to on the trial, you'd hit the gil cap though and waste a bunch of money probably

#

As is you usually hit the trial gil cap before you get one job to 60

frank mountain
#

Yeh i'll pick up the starter pretty quickly on both PS4 and PC I think.

heavy wadi
final quarry
#

I don't know the ins and outs but ffxiv is finicky afaik with different versions on one account

frank mountain
#

Oh, I thought you logged in to the same account and could play character on different devices?

final quarry
#

I think you can for pc and ps4 but I know pc steam and pc square store versions you cannot

twilit arch
#

you can

final quarry
#

I don't play on ps4 tho

twilit arch
#

i mean he said he's picking it up for pc and ps4

#

so steam/non steam isn't an issue for him

final quarry
#

You have to buy the game plus current expac on pc and ps4 tho correct?

twilit arch
#

yes

final quarry
#

Yea :(

frank mountain
#

That is how it reads if I got to the latest expac, would need on both.

toxic condor
#

I dont understand why i cant use it? I dont have any welkin pieces so why does it say It say that?

agile laurel
#

It's the belt

twilit arch
#

look in your belt section

#

iirc its fabled ?

agile laurel
#

The belt isn't specific, it's just A Belt

#

And you will have it already

twilit arch
#

yeah look for fabled belt of healing

#

and either throw it out, or put it elsewhere

toxic condor
#

that's what's causing this? wow thanks I found it

#

it worked now

frank mountain
#

What is the end game like? Raiding/dungeons and whatnot?

final quarry
#

Uhh it's fun if you like that kind of stuff, it's pretty late into the teir and the next expac is coming out in a few months

fringe bone
#

Whats a good way to lvl from 55 to 60 ?

#

level 50/60/70 dunegeons or just roulette?

faint flare
#

Level cap dungeons are shit for xp

final quarry
#

Msq roulette, roulettes in general, after no more roulette highest lvl dg you can do

faint flare
#

And roulettes are once per day

fringe bone
#

So just pick the highest lvl dunegon i can do after my daily roulette ?

faint flare
#

That's not a level cap dungeon yes

final quarry
#

If you already finished shb bozja is ok

fringe bone
#

wdym level cap dungeon?

frank mountain
faint flare
#

50/60/70

fringe bone
faint flare
#

Are level cap dungeons

fringe bone
#

oh ok

boreal storm
#

X0 dungeons

#

Because they didn’t have a reason to give exp back then

final quarry
#

Bozja southern front, it's for making the current relic stuff

fringe bone
#

so get the highest lvl ones from here

void venture
#

anyone play ffxiv through steam?

final quarry
twilit arch
#

if you're 55, you should be doing the 55 dungeon

fringe bone
#

What 55 dungeon?

boreal storm
#

Unless you’re not in HW yet

fringe bone
#

im in hw

twilit arch
#

the aery is lvl 55

#

if you aren't there yet, then you should be doing your msq

this one im guessing?

You are gated by doing the main story not level

twilit arch

no @void venture

fringe bone
#

but i dont feel like doing it now

heavy wadi
#

msq is the easiest way to level

boreal storm
#

You get exp from msq, you want exp...so like

agile laurel
#

overleveling your msq achieves quite literally nothing

final quarry
#

You will hit max level before you finish the story from story exp alone

fringe bone

I dont want to overlevel

#

i have other classes to play msq with

i want to make my pld lvl 60 thats it

heavy wadi

you're overleveling

bold wraith
#

I just unlocked dancer, is there ironworks armor available for them, or should I even bother buying it if there is?

faint flare

Shire at 60

#

Dancer starts at 60 so there's no gear for them outside of normal range/aiming gear

bold wraith
#

Whats shire? :/

faint flare
#

Lv60 version of ironworks

bold wraith
#

ah ok, do you buy it at the same place?

faint flare
#

Brought with poetics

#

No, in idyllshire

#

Or ishgard sundry splendor

rustic flare
#

Okay. The good news is that I made gil from my retainers. The bad news is that I lack the control to make the Chivalric Doublet of Healing.

#

Currently. My Control on my Weaver is 378.

faint flare
#

HQ gear, melds and food

rustic flare
#

But the Control required to make it is 589.

faint flare
#

Then you're gear is pretty bad

#

If control is that low

frank mountain
#

Well, I think I'll just start off wit ha glad tonight once the game downloads, thanks for the tips. I tried when it first came out and really didn't like it. Years later now, lets see if I enjoy it more. I see it has changed a lot.

rustic flare
#

And yes I can use some new HQ gear for my weaver. But I do not have enough gil to even buy it.

faint flare
#

Make your own

#

That's the point of levelling crafters

rustic flare
#

Yes I know

bold wraith
faint flare
#

No. Do story

#

You go there at 57 in the story

#

The way is blocked until then

bold wraith
#

Gotcha

boreal storm
#

The entrance is locked for plot reasons

warm snow
#

You only NEED flight in one area in the game, and it'll be given to you entirely through msq

bold wraith
#

im on like level 54 of the story so its coming soon

warm snow
#

General rule of thumb: pretty much EVERYTHING is locked behind main story

faint flare
#

Well 2 dungeons and a trial

rustic flare
#

And the gear on my Botanist is horrible too.

bold wraith
#

yeah ive just been doing MSQ but im overleveled lol

warm snow
#

Road to 70 does that

faint flare
#

And doing roulettes daily

boreal storm
#

Over leveling is normal

rustic flare
#

And majority all of my crafters are behind in levels and gear. So much so. It can take me days to get the gear needed to get them all caught up to date.

#

And I need to save money. I mean $2000 worth to buy Tales of Adventure for each crafter. But I do not want to miss out on any content the game has to offer. Hence the mistake I made was buying it for my White Mage and missed out on the content for Stormblood.

#

And it's a mistake I cannot repeat.

faint flare
#

Ah yes, that one line In dialogue

#

That you could have just rewatched

#

Nothing is missable outside of events

rustic flare
#

Oh good. I least I have not missed much.

candid ruin
#

can u use same set of items in glamour but with 2 different colour?

rustic flare
#

And one thing I want to avoid is hiring more than two retainers that are provided to me for free. I can hire more. But it costs money.

faint flare
#

You're not missing anything with more retainers

candid ruin
#

so the item will be only dyed on plate not in glamour dresser?

faint flare
#

Yes

candid ruin
#

thanks

frank mountain
#

Any EU servers to avoid when starting on?

faint flare
#

No

#

Shiva is unofficially German, moogle is unofficially French but everything is cross server within the data centre

#

There's no wrong choices

frank mountain
#

Ah nice, I read about some being RP focused and german/french focus. good to know.

faint flare
#

Rp servers are on crystal with balmung and mateus

#

All others are unremarkable

void venture
#

where can i choose to pay sub mannuelly

rustic flare
#

To help everyone. Here is my current stats on both my Weaver and Botanist.

warm snow
twilit arch
#

i would suggest farming yellow scrips for the accessories at the very least

#

that and buying the 61 vendor set if you can afford it

faint flare
#

And unlock zhloes custom deliveries for massive xp and scrips weekly which can help boost other jobs when they hit 55

clever shell
#

so i'm about to dispute the copyright claim on my video that included Torn from the Heavens. do you all think what i've written here is good enough for them to remove the claim?
"Streaming the music in this game is allowed as long as it is accompanied by the gameplay where the music is played, as per the Final Fantasy XIV Materials Usage License, seen here: https://support.na.square-enix.com/rule.php?id=5382&la=1&tag=authc
In addition, Torn from the Heavens is not on the list of songs that are not allowed to be streamed, so this video should not be copyright claimed."

Oh lord. The gear I want requires Blue Gatherer's Scrip Tokens.

you can buy it easily in ishgard itself

from the splendors npc

rather than doing the blue scrip exchange method in idyllshire

what Materia is recommended?

can I take them on and off at will?

Yes

Materia doesn't matter until endgame

materia isn't recommended to use while leveling

So don't worry

since you're going to be changing gear so often anyway

I am in the Pillars and I cannot even find the NPC.

alpine shadow

im guessing it is allowed as long as you show gameplay as you said you did.

twilit arch
#

where are you in the msq

alpine shadow
#

and it is not on the list of disallowed music

clever shell
#

my reasoning exactly

alpine shadow

is it a manual claim?

I already completed the Heavensward MSQ ages ago.

Hello to all, after watching several tutorials online and reading about FFXIV I'm finally getting on board and play this game. I come from a mmo that the main goal are collectables etc etc. My question (I guess you are probably tired of seeing this) should I just rush lv60 with 1 class and maine quest then come back to level other classes with sides quests or should I multi level classes along the way ? Currently level 28. As fair as I know the games steps up at lv 50 ish (playing free trial for the moment) Thank you for kind replies

remote lintel
#

no

#

there is no point in rushing

#

this is a long game

rustic flare
#

Found it. And they require Yellow Gatherer's Scrips.

faint flare
#

Story is mandatory to do

#

So it's top priority with job quests

twilit arch
#

yes thats why i suggested doing it thru the sundry vendor

#

because its a straight yellow scrip buy, rather than buying blue tokens with yellow scrips to exchange for it

remote lintel
#

if you get into an exp boosted world you can level up multiple classes with the story

#

or you can just stick to 1

#

its up to you

twilit arch
#

idyllshire's exchange is a bit more round about to get the items

rustic flare
#

Are Yellow Gatherer's Scrips earned the same way as Yellow Crafter's Scrips?

faint flare
#

Basically yes

twilit arch
#

by turning in collectables, yes

harsh topaz
#

I'm in spriggan world

remote lintel
#

then its not preferred and doesnt have the exp boost

fringe bone
#

Does anyone know

#

how to claim veteran rewards?

twilit arch
#

they're mailed to you

harsh topaz
#

I guess i'll just go vanilla path and slowly level enjoying main quest

fringe bone
#

Do i have to claim anything tho or is it random

remote lintel
#

there are multiple points in the story where you can switch

faint flare
#

Pick it up in the mail

twilit arch
#

no, you get a mail at the mail moogle when you hit a veteran reward milestone

fringe bone
#

oh ok

#

so automatic

#

gotcha

frank mountain
#

Someone mentioned there is a new expansion soon. Is it soon enough that it isn't worth buying the current one and just waiting for it to be released? Endwalker is it?

faint flare
#

You'll be waiting like 5 months

#

Minimum

#

So if you're fine with the trial for 5 months

frank mountain
#

I've got the starter, and am assuming the current expac will be merged in to that when enw one is released?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

And if you preorder the new expansion, you'll only get the others when it launches

frank mountain
#

Thank you.

Hello.
Question regarding GC seals.
Whats the fastest way to farm them at lvl47?

open coral
#

Gear turn-ins

#

Any dungeon quality gear that you have and don't want, exchange it for seals at your GC

rustic flare
#

I got information from my fellow FC members about the Namazu Beast Tribes for level 60 crafting gear. Does anyone know where they are located?

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay. Thank you!

faint flare
#

You need to do some blue quests in Yanxia to unlock them

rustic flare
#

Which part of Yanxia?

faint flare
#

Namai

#

Lower half iirc

rustic flare
#

I have not unlocked the beast tribe for it yet

Unlock quests are listed

Is anyone able to explain me what Horoscope (LVL 76 Astrologian) does, I don't understand it well.
So I give everyone a buff called "horoscope" and when I draw cards it will heal them?

faint flare
#

No

remote lintel
#

its a time bomb for heals

#

you use horoscope

#

you use an aoe heal

#

you use horoscope again for a small heal

faint flare
#

Use horoscope then either 1 or 2 things

Use it again for a 200 pot heal

Use Helios/a.helios then press it again for a 400 pot heal

warm snow
#

Using helios upgrades the horoscope heal to 400 potency

faint flare
#

It's useful to help top up after raidwides

rustic flare
#

Yes. it's the quest called Courage the Cowardly Lupin.

leaden ginkgo
#

thank you all alot!

mental oracle
#

Do you have to get hit by an attack by a monster to learn it as blue mage or just see it?

faint flare
#

No

#

Have some aggro on the mob and see the cast

#

And be alive

mental oracle
#

ok

rustic flare
#

And it's a reference from the Cartoon Network show. "Courage The Cowardly Dog".

Koji and the writers love refernces

question, following the current main scenario quests, do i need to pay attention and read every little quest they give me to be able to follow the story? some of these are just like.. go kill these scorpions and bring me the eggs

#

i just dont wanna fall behind on the story line

open coral
#

You'll mostly be okay if you only pay close attention to actual cutscene quests of both the voiced and unvoiced varieties.

#

If it's just like, normal dialogue with emotes, it's less important to Actual Plot.

Is Frontline Roullette at low level (35) worth it? I know it's crazy later on.

faint flare
modest igloo

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

You just copy/paste an items look onto another

Some people think it akin to transmog

Umbra

#

Ye i get that its essentially transmog. But when I attempt to glamour I dont have any choices in appearance.

frozen wind
#

Its been a while since i did the edens raid and im not sure where the blue quest is for that

faint flare

faint flare
frozen wind
#

#

Ahh morq sorq? heaidng there ty!

open coral
#

Then the quest should be in Mord Souq

cosmic parrot
#

So I need to hold the gear i want the look of? Is that the purpose of storing it in the glamour station? So i dont have to hold it later?

faint flare
#

Basically

remote lintel
#

yes
