#

I did pick it up, just doing it now in case I have to do another quest before it

wintry chasm
#

okay then what quest is this?

remote lintel
#

@modest canopy thats it, just enter a RAF code during the free 30 days after buying the starter edition

obtuse dust
#

I'm doing Something in the Water when I'm meant to be doing "The bathing bully"

wintry chasm
#

you sure you haven't just completed it already?

pseudo pulsar
#

Ok then it's better to go on Omega. I hesitate between this and Wow TBC. FF14 seems more casual friendly, with a funnier gameplay. I just hope endgame is not too repetitive, or just collecting cosmetics (i often chose one beautiful armor and that's it xD)

obtuse dust
#

I haven't because I have 1 quest that I need to do in the Churning mist for my aether currents, and ive done all MSQ's

wintry chasm
#

I can't read

#

Still though you checked that?

obtuse dust
#

Actually, it says I've done it

wintry chasm
#

Then it's another quest you're missing lol

obtuse dust
#

But I have the quest thing for my aether current... what

wintry chasm
#

Find which one isn't in your completed list

tardy tangle
#

what's Piety?

wintry chasm
#

Into the Aery is MSQ though so don't count that

obtuse dust
#

But if its a MSQ wouldn't I have done it if I'm Shadow Bringer

#

Oh right, that might be it then

Controller-PC integration isn't as good as it could be, especially if you're using a PS controller with Windows or something similar. Controller on PC has some issues that crop up that PS4 never has.

For ARR relic, atma fates aren't guranteed drops?

#

Is it normal to get the error code" invalid code" when putting in your activation code in mogstation?

obtuse dust
#

I've found it, haha

obtuse dust
#

Thank you guys for the help, now I just have to find the last aether current in the world

pseudo pulsar
#

Is "Omega" the designed server in Chaos the unofficial RP server ? I saw that on the net

faint flare
#

I don't think thar ever really got off the ground

short jasper
grave plover
#

so hi there

pseudo pulsar
#

Because if i try again FF14, i'll prob go on it, but i don't want to go on a RP server ^^

grave plover

#

coming from a blm to a tank role

faint flare
#

It doesn't matter If you end on a Rp server or not

remote lintel
#

individual world doesnt matter because you can world visit

!rotation blk

#

wait...

modest canopy
#

Activation codes don't expire do they?

faint flare
#

No

grave plover
#

uhhhwhats the rotation command?

faint flare
#

There's no rotation command

pseudo pulsar
#

The only thing that want me to go on a designed server is the xp boost for "alt jobs". Otherwise i would go to Moogle for example. I don't know if the xp boost is that huge or not

modest canopy
#

I can't figure out why my activation code is invalid

faint flare
#

Road to 70 doubles all xp gained

crimson crystal
#

is there arr new game+ yet? I forget when that is/was planned

faint flare
#

Yes

grave plover
#

whats the command to see the rotations

pseudo pulsar
#

The designed server sometimes change on chaos ?

faint flare
#

There isn't any command

remote lintel

DRK Openers

Double-weave
Standard DRK opener, aims to align everything with raid buffs as much as possible. If you aren't able to double weave Salted with Plunge move Plunge back with Living Shadow. Blue box represents GCDs that should be in Blood Weapon, red box is GCDs inside Delirium.

Single-weave
Should be used ONLY when you cannot work with the double-weave opener. Single-weave is a DPS LOSS and is meant for players with significantly high ping.

faint flare
#

Server status change on patches

remote lintel
#

@modest canopy are you entering the code in the right place

#

and not item registration

modest canopy
#

this is the right place, yea?

does heavensward have new gear to buy from like the vendors?

or is the same ones as ARR

faint flare

#kupo-bot-spam for personal use

remote lintel
#

@fading helm it has new gear

fading helm
#

ayy cool

remote lintel
#

@modest canopy yes

faint flare
#

Vendor geae is fucking GARBAGE though

u purchase with gil?

fading helm
#

i wanna take another class to HW like dragoon or something

#

or should i just continue with my PLD

modest canopy
#

@remote lintel I've put my activation code in like 5 times and it just keeps telling me it's invalid

fading helm
#

ooooh i can do DRK in HW right?

faint flare
#

Do whatever you want

pseudo pulsar
#

I don't know which one to chose if i try again FF. A RP server isn't my thing, even if there are no RP players on it. Each time i watch the site, it's always Omega as "designed" server

fading helm
#

is drk a seperate class or is it an extension like PLD was to GLA

remote lintel
#

what does the error say specifically @modest canopy

modest canopy
faint flare
remote lintel
#

expansion classes dont have base classes @fading helm

#

@modest canopy did you buy it for the right region? did you buy it for the right platform?

fading helm
#

ok so its gonna start from 0 then?

faint flare
#

Classes are just baby version of their job

#

30

modest canopy
#

Yeah, PC, U.S

faint flare
#

Expansion jobs start higher

remote lintel
#

where did you buy it from @modest canopy

fading helm
#

oh ok so it comes with more moves off the bat

modest canopy
#

the SE store

remote lintel
#

screenshot your mog station page

modest canopy
#

I bought it some time last year

remote lintel
#

the first page

fickle rampart
#

Can I pre order Endwalker even though I don't have Shadowbringers and the other expac? I just have heavansward

faint flare
#

Yes

#

If you own the starter edition

#

You'll get the other expansions on endwalker launch

fickle rampart
#

Ok cool I want the +30xp earring. And I'm 10000% sure the other expacs will go on sale between now and then

#

wait really

remote lintel
#

yes

faint flare
#

They always bundle old expansions into the new

fickle rampart
#

hmmm. But i'll only be lvl 60

remote lintel
#

but until then youll be capped

#

and endwalker isnt dropping for 6 months

austere sail
#

how long does it take for new player restrictions to be lifted

modest canopy
fickle rampart
#

Well if I hit 60 with months left I'll prob buy them. Darn

faint flare

ah, sorry I meant for character creation on worlds

!faq serverlock

zinc orbitBOT
#
Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

faint flare
#

That changes based on population

So late at night/early morning

@faint flare FINAL FANTASY XIV: SHADOWBRINGERS™ STANDARD EDITION [PC DOWNLOAD] (copy pasted from page)

remote lintel
#

you need the base game

#

not shadowbringers

modest canopy
#

it came with those previous expansions too, when i was reading it, though

remote lintel
#

it comes with stormblood, not the base game

modest canopy
#

but why would it say invalid code if it was just something else missing?

faint flare
#

Because it's invalid for your account

remote lintel
#

because you cant register it without having the base game

faint flare
#

It can't be used

#

Yet

crystal bluff
#

Probably because it doesn't have a CD key of the game to bind to

faint flare
#

You can't use dlc for a game you don't own

modest canopy
#

is there just an ARR base game product key? or do they force you to waste more money?

fickle rampart
#

So buying Stormblood would be very stupid ? I assume shadowbringers INCLUDES stormblood?

faint flare
#

You only paid for half of the game

obsidian patio
#

The starter edition is ARR+HW

faint flare
#

You physically can't buy stormblood

fickle rampart
#

Ok so if I hit lvl 60 and can't wait for endwalker, I gotta pony up for shadowbringers. Thank you so much for all the help guys

#

this discord is great

#

Guess I could really just get every class to 60

#

if shadowbringers goes on deep sale though would be tempting to get closer to new content since I'll still be pretty behind

fringe bone
#

is this any usefull?

#

seems pretty useless to me

remote lintel
#

yes

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Very

remote lintel
#

you need it for an extra attack

fringe bone
#

wdym

faint flare
#

You can't trigger Seigan without it

fringe bone
#

wth is seigan

remote lintel
#

!action hissatsu: seigan

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Hissatsu: Seigan** : lvl 66 SAM (1.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 220.
Kenki Gauge Cost: 15
Can only be executed while under the effect of Eyes Open.
Shares a recast timer with Merciful Eyes.

faint flare
#

Your best Kenki spender

fringe bone
#

Aha

#

so

#

until lvl 66 its useless

remote lintel
#

no

#

its mitigation

faint flare
#

It's free mitigation

obsidian patio
#

It’s free mitigation if you know how to time it

fringe bone
#

i mean

faint flare
#

And free healing with merciful eyes

fringe bone
#

alright i guess

#

im starting to have to many skills

#

and its hard to organize

#

any good tips?

faint flare
#

It's standard

remote lintel
#

samurai probably has the most unique skills of all classes

glossy flare
#

I mean the mitigation is not a huge deal, but not using it would be a waste basically

remote lintel
#

so

fringe bone
#

Right

glossy flare
#

Though of all your skills it probably has the lowest priority in most situations?

fringe bone
#

So any tips though?

#

his how it looks like now

faint flare
#

Group skills together, have important stuff within reach

glossy flare
#

You should plan with 3 hotbars for everything at lvl 80

#

true for most jobs tbh

remote lintel
#

you dont need the stun

#

you can put it on a farther key

fringe bone
#

ok

remote lintel
#

also unshare your top hotbar with the tank stances

fringe bone
#

how do i do that

remote lintel
#

character config > hotbar > sharing

fringe bone
#

ok

#

well

#

so legsweep can go to a further key

#

what else?

remote lintel
#

put the emote on a separate hotbar

#

use the V for something else

fringe bone
#

I need the emote

#

hahah

#

i sit down allot :p

remote lintel
#

then click it on a separate hotbar

fringe bone
#

but i wanna keeyypress

faint flare
#

Often used skills like Kaiten and all should be near where your hand rests

remote lintel
#

well go to actions and traits and look at the rest of the skills youre going to get

#

and i would bind all of those

#

so you dont have to rearrange things so much as you level

onyx anchor
#

Should you cast Jolt before Aero / Thunder or just hardcast Aero and then dualcast Thunder?

fringe bone
#

OH

#

THATS SO SMART

faint flare
#

Always use Jolt (or Fire/Stone) to proc dualcast

#

You only hardcase thunder/aero for openers with a countdown

steep falcon
#

Hello fellow ffxiv players, how do you do? So i have some few questions about the game cause i've been kinda interested to play it

onyx anchor
#

So should you use Jolt -> Aero and Jolt -> Thunder or...?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Swapping Jolt with Stone/fire when they proc

onyx anchor
#

Ahh, okay, thank you!

fringe bone
#

ask away tho :p

steep falcon
#

Oh

faint flare
#

You can swiftcast thunder/aero to fish for procs

steep falcon
#

Aight

fringe bone
#

What is it you wanna know

pseudo pulsar
#

Is it that hard to lvl up alt job if you are not on a designed server ?

faint flare
#

No

#

Just abit slower

#

Levelling is easy

#

Just tedious after the 5th time

fringe bone
#

Isnt a alt job leveling quicker?

onyx anchor
#

What would be a good Dungeon to start learning RDM?

fringe bone
#

because u get the xp boost

steep falcon
#

Ok so how good is the gameplay like on ps4?
I've heard some things about subscription, how does it work?
How the gameplay feels like?
Is it worth playing?

west spruce
#

trainning dummy

remote lintel
#

youre asking if its worth playing to an entire discord server of people who play the game

#

daily

steep falcon
#

Ok i presume it worthy then

remote lintel
#

the gameplay is fine on ps4

#

!faq subprice

zinc orbitBOT
#
Subscription Prices
remote lintel
#

thats the sub

fading helm
#

u buy the base game, then pay the sub price, the game is very slow paced (atleast the beginning like 60 hours is) but if you like this style of combat you will enjoy it @steep falcon

remote lintel
#

the gameplay starts slow at first because you can only use 1 weaponskill every 2.5 secs but you eventually get abilities that you can use between those

pseudo pulsar
#

Because i did a character on Omega last year, i didn't even have the 1 million gils i think, i don't remember why. But the fact that it's a RP server doesn't attract me that much even if i can dodge it. The best thing would be to go on a server like moogle (i don't know the reputation of their players)

fading helm
#

there is a free trial which is the base game + the first expansion for free so give that a try and see if you like it

remote lintel
#

the 1 million gil is only for new worlds and there are no new worlds @pseudo pulsar

eternal niche
#

What's the best way to figure out where certain gear comes from for glamour? I'm totally new, and the website that the eorzea collection links you to when you click on gear does a really horrible job of explaining how you actually acquire items.

steep falcon
#

And how long is the game?

remote lintel
#

what do you mean it does a horrible job? it tells you exactly where to get it @eternal niche

faint flare
#

Long

steep falcon
#

Understandable

fading helm
#

the base game is like 100+ hours and the expansions are pretty long too i think its a looong game

faint flare
#

It's 4, soon to be 5, games long

remote lintel
#

@steep falcon it took me a little over a month of playing the game several hours a day to beat it

novel python
#

How do I bypass levels

pseudo pulsar
#

Oh yeah, it's why i didn't receive it. But maybe i'm wrong, but if it's not that hard to up lvl max with alt jobs, it can be funnier to join a "big server" instead of a designed server which is btw RP

west spruce
#

wdym

remote lintel
#

what do you mean bypass levels

west spruce
#

bypass levels?

novel python
#

Someone said earlier you can buy levels

steep falcon
#

If im a begginer will i get absolutely lost and have no idea since the game have a pretty long duration ?

remote lintel
#

its mostly for alt jobs

west spruce
#

yea I dont recommend it

remote lintel
#

@steep falcon no, you just follow the story quests

eternal niche
#

@remote lintel Then maybe I'm taking crazy pills. Lots of items just say you can't buy it and it's market restricted and then say nothing else about how to get it. And then for items that are craftable, it just says craftable but doesn't give more specifics.

faint flare
#

Read pop ups

onyx anchor
pseudo pulsar
#

But when you are not on a designed server, your alt jobs still have bonus exp if your main is higher level i'm right ?

novel python
#

Why not

safe flint
#

Can anyone tell me when the game picks up im level 10 and nothing has really happened its just trivial quest and 90% walking

onyx anchor
#

You won't learn how to play the class

remote lintel
#

@eternal niche i usually just google the item and click the gamerescape link because that wiki is easier to understand

faint flare
#

Because you don't learn how to play the game

#

And get carried

#

Cause you can't do basic sh8t

eternal niche
#

Thanks. I'll check gamerscape.

fading helm
#

probably at like almost 70-80 hours in? thats when it picked up for me atleast lol @safe flint

fringe bone
# steep falcon Ok so how good is the gameplay like on ps4? I've heard some things about subscri...

Ps4- idk i heard people say they like playing on controller though
Subscription ez - u buy gametime for example u pay 13 bucks and u can play for 30 days it does not matter if your active or not timer goes. Gameplay like differs from class to class but its basically u select the target hit a ability and do a skill then combo it in another skill u have other passive abilities u activate in order to do more dmg, some classes require u to hit the enemy in a certain place like the rear or side. The enemy does attacks which are indicated by kind of zones that show on the ground . if u dodge em u dont get hit although every boss is different. Gameplay is kinda smooth and nice once u know how to play. Its very repetitive tho like any mmo you gotta like grinding and spening time on getting stronger. You can play any class with 1 character only thing u gotta do is equip the weapon of that class and boom u are that class u unlock classes by talking to the npc that gives uthe quest to unlock it each differ some u can unlock starting lvl 1 other require u to be lvl 60 with a certain class. Its worth playing if u like the mmorpg concept and look of the game

west spruce
#

last thing we need is player that don't know what they are doing at endgame content

fading helm
#

it really depends its different for everyone lol

How do I use it

remote lintel
#

you use the item in game

west spruce
#

right lick>use

#

*click

remote lintel
#

but theres no point in outleveling msq

fading helm
#

there is a lot of walking and fetch quests in general what makes those go by faster is having a mount and flying

remote lintel
#

because you cant use your higher level skills anyway

fading helm
#

and teleporting

steep falcon
#

Is there any channel you guys recommend to learn more?

fringe bone
safe flint
remote lintel
#

@fringe bone in duties and solo instances

#

@steep falcon just ask questions here

fading helm
#

yeah i would say so, all of a realm reborn is just those kind of quests aside from the dungeons and raids

remote lintel
#

@safe flint at level 10 youve played the game for like 5 minutes

#

just play

Hi guys. I played the game a couple years ago and completed ARR, but stopped playing and gave my account away to a friend. Now i'm looking to return and pickup where I left off with a new account/character (so starting in Heavenward). What is the cheapest/best way to do this? Do I buy the ARR skip + level 70 boost + complete edition of the game? Is the level 70 boost necessary? Tx.

fading helm
#

you get your first chocobo at level 20 so that makes some of the walking tasks a bit better

Y’all said not to

#

Why you tell me

fringe bone
#

anyone have a lvl 80 samurai from who i can copy the hotbars :p

remote lintel
#

we said it wasnt recommended for new characters

faint flare
#

Because you asked?

remote lintel
#

you were the one who bought it

novel python
#

Sheesh

steep falcon
#

I kinda got interested since i like ff and thanks to a youtuber

fading helm
#

i mean the game is free to start with the trial so might as well try it and see how you like it

#

its a very generous trial lol u can get hundreds of hours out of it

remote lintel
#

@verbal swallow yes you can buy the ARR skip and either: grind your character to level 50, buy a lvl 70 job skip for the class you want, or buy a lvl 70 job skip for a class you dont want ad unlock a lvl 50 class with it

fringe bone
#

bein lvl 70 makes ur life like kind of ez but noit really at the same time because when u do certain dungeons and trials and story etc. they will sync your level down and u wont be able to use the skills u see i nyour hotbar

#

Cerberus, what do u advise i get?

remote lintel
#

its your preference

#

if you can stomach the grind to 50 then i would just do that

verbal swallow
#

how bad is that grind in terms of hours

remote lintel
#

probably several days

#

unless you start on a preferred server

#

then it would be way faster

faint flare
#

In hours, 40 or so

verbal swallow
#

okay yeah that's too much

#

thanks for input

dreamy eagle
#

Is there a way to see, on an inactive account, weather the character on a now preferred server has the buff?

remote lintel
#

you dont get the buff after the server becomes preferred

#

you have to create the character while the server is preferred

dreamy eagle
#

but its likely that i chose that server a year ago or .. more? cant remember becaues it was preferred isnt it?

remote lintel
#

then you dont have the buff

faint flare
#

You would have lost it

remote lintel
#

because it was a year ago

faint flare
#

If it was preferred before

slate arrow
#

It's likely been both 90 days and the server has swapped from preferred to standard at least once

tender ice
#

Is there a way to check how many dungeons, raids or trials I have done?

#

For this

slate arrow
#

Achievement

dreamy eagle
#

oh i thought the buff would stay until lvl70 and not until the server swaps?

faint flare
#

No

remote lintel
#

you have the buff for 90 days after the server stops being preferred

obsidian patio
faint flare
#

It goes away once the server is no longer preferred and 90days has pasted

slate arrow
#

the buff only lasts for 90 days or whenever the server is no longer preferred, whichever one comes last

#

So you're guaranteed 90 days or more

fickle rampart
#

The buff lasts for infinite days if the server is preferred

dreamy eagle
#

okay thanks thats good to know! Now..how long, in hours, is leveling to 70 usually? And how much is the xp buff taking off that?

tender ice
#

Twintania finally lost the buff

fickle rampart
#

it continues to last 90 days after it is no longer perferred

slate arrow
#

So you'd likely hit 70 by sometime in Heavensward

#

*under the road to 70 buff

#

as road to 70 multiplies all exp

#

Not just specific EXP

dreamy eagle
#

oh quest xp too? so thats a plus or meaningless since i complete the questline either way?

slate arrow
#

a plus, if you wanna level alts

#

As except for Stormblood and beyond jobs, you don't get any new skills from 51-60 outside of your class quests

dreamy eagle
#

its a hard decision, i am "already" 33 on the old acount but im missing the current addon and the price difference between full pack and the addon is 2or3bucksXD

#

but then again those early levels are a pain iwth the global cd

fickle rampart
#

33 lvls are trivial with the road to 70 buff

#

i'm doing it now. I'm on lvl 20 MSQs, doing no side quests. I have two jobs at 30

#

The amount of xp you get is ludicrous

fading helm
#

how much does an apartment cost?

dreamy eagle
#

ok so all i need to do is the one questline and maybe some of the content unlocking quests?and until lvl60 its all within the trial?

strange coral
crystal bluff
#

yes

fading helm
#

oh wow not bad, can u buy one whenever? or do u need to complete the whole game or somethin

remote lintel
#

you cant buy it on trial

fading helm
#

yeah when i do sub i mean

remote lintel
#

you can buy it whenever

strange coral
#

You just need access to the housing district

novel python
#

Is buying Gil allowed?

open coral
#

You need 2nd lieutenant in your GC as well

fading helm
#

oh nice, theyre easier to get than houses right?

remote lintel
#

@novel python no

#

@fading helm yes

slate arrow
novel python
#

Ok cause I got a message saying 50 million Gil for $20

open coral
#

Report it as RMT

remote lintel
#

yes bots are everywhere

dreamy eagle
#

Ok it seems like i waste a cpl of beers then and going to restart XD any advise on a nice leveling experience?

faint flare
#

Those are gil sellers which are bannable

limber parcel
#

say these are combo 1 is the top 3, combo 2 is the bottom 3

#

Do i basically go Combo 1 > combo 2 > combo 1 > combo 2?

faint flare
#

Not always

slate arrow
#

you want to keep up your buffs and debuffs

remote lintel
#

you prioritize skills based on what you need

#

if your dots are going to fall off then you apply dot

limber parcel
#

Yeah I noticed that sometimes i need to refresh my personal buff

faint flare
#

As Demolish is used every 3 cycles, Twin snakes and dragon kick are used every other

limber parcel
#

but the dot isn't falling off for a while yet

obsidian patio
#

Dragon Kick and Twin snakes every 2nd combo, demolish every 3rd

dreamy eagle
#

Job wise the game is balanced enough and changing here and there that i can go for example bard and dont feel useless?

remote lintel
#

all jobs are good

slate arrow
#

yes

open coral
#

Yes

limber parcel
#

Ok thanks guys 🙂

slate arrow
#

to do the instance thing daily i need a healer role tho dont you think? dps q was longer than my daily playtime last time i tried^^

dps queues will always be the longest

the adventurer in need bonus is tiny

Healers will almost always have the shortest queues.

I found that on my data center at least

#

healer queues are practically instant

dreamy eagle

so i saw that arcanist somehow is leveling both dps andhealer role, would that be like ideal?

open coral
#

The caveat being that it will be your healer getting the xp, so if you're trying to level a different job, it won't do you any good

Tanks can take 1-3 minutes, DPS take about 5-10

Mounts FAQ

'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.

You cannot jump progress until they unlock the ability to, which might not be for a bit. You will not be able to go straight into Eden's Promise: Ressurection without having first progressed through e9s, 10s, and 11s. So, enjoy panel memes!

Savage tiers do eventually unlock though, and when they do you can jump straight to the last fight.

You can skip to E10S once you've unlocked it by beating E9S once. You can't, for example, do normal eden, do e12n for the first time, and then join an E12S party for the first time and go straight into E12S is what I'm saying.

There are like two instances of quests that start in Ishgard and end in the location that gives you the aether current

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.

Which one is more HOT based?

jade quartz
#

Recommend eventually leveling at least two healers so that you can be flexible in parties. It’s not advisable to have two of the same job in a party, so having a backup job will let you join groups where there’s already one other healer playing your main job

short blaze
#

im assuming i wont be able to get Machinist or gunbreaker until i finish the MSQ right?

faint flare
#

Machinist you.wont

#

Gunbreaker yes

remote lintel
#

mch requires you to get to hw

faint flare
#

Only heavensward jobs have MSQ requirements

short blaze
#

hmm ok

short jasper
#

yeah, it's just cause MCH, DRK, and AST's job quests are based in Ishgard so you kinda have to get in there.

#

Another caveat: You won't be able to do pre-SB job's 50-60 stuff including unlocking skills until you've unlocked Heavensward.

it takes them to mog station to enter the code most likely

Don’t worry

It most likely takes them to homepage to register/purchase game I guess and they have to enter the code while they're on free 30 days of playtime that u get when u purchase game

So if they have already installed and bought the game I’m guessing it won’t work?

Is it possible to make alliances outside raids?

warm snow
#

Yes

rugged flicker
#

My friend says you can only do it with full parties. This true?

warm snow
#

You can create an alliance party finder

#

And have full parties join it

I found a character that I really like in the eorzea database. Is there a way I can find out what option numbers they used in the character creation screen?

eternal niche
#

What's that?

remote lintel
#

#

unless you ask them

#

darn. I don't even know how i'd do that

What’s max level for squadron people? And do I do anything with them when max to farm Gil or something?

faint flare
#

60

ripe hound
#

Is BRD hard to play optimally?

civic flare
#

Are they just used for command missions for leveling jobs?

remote lintel
#

no @ripe hound

civic flare
#

Or do squad missions do anything once 60?

ripe hound
#

I always remember BRD was supper hard. But I guess it’s probably because it was my first main and I was bad

#

Also I cannot let my retainers glamour the Grand Company suits rights?

Hi new player. If I wanted to buy whatever I need to play most recent content what would I buy? Thank you ❤️

#

complete edition

leaden ginkgo
#

why do people hate monk dot

obsidian patio
#

They don’t? Unless you’re looking at older skills for them

pale jungle
#

@fallen fractal Ye complete edition, make sure you check its for Pc or playstation or Steam

fallen fractal
#

Would you say better to buy on steam or website? I know you can't go between the two.

leaden ginkgo
#

@obsidian patiosoemone was saying they hate it cuz they clip it cause its too long?

#

i feel like its too short

obsidian patio
faint flare
#

Those people are bad if they say it's too long

#

Cause with 3 cycles it's perfect timing

leaden ginkgo
#

i think its too short

pale jungle
#

@fallen fractal imo pc version is good enough for me, steam too much trouble i feel

leaden ginkgo
#

@faint flarehow do u clip it though

fallen fractal
#

okay. 60 bucks for complete editon than 15 for sub right?

faint flare
leaden ginkgo
#

@faint flare"you end up having to like shuffle one ability every combo to adjust and not clip the dot"

#

is this true

pale jungle
#

Ye thats it, you can choose the basic sub its abit cheaper

faint flare
#

Yes, cause Twin and Dragon kick every 2 cycles

#

And Demolish is every 3 cycles

#

So you can't just do the same two "combos" back to back

leaden ginkgo
#

so ur supposed to do the dot every 3 cycles or 2?

faint flare
#

Every 3

leaden ginkgo
#

cuz i never really had a problem with it I just find it annoying that dot and twin snake is super short, how would you clip it though?????

faint flare
#

Because bad players refresh it every 2 cycles

leaden ginkgo
#

does it really matter if its 2-3 though lol

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Yes it doe

leaden ginkgo
#

maybe if ur trying to be super optimized but i feel it doesnt change much

#

i for one only care about twin snake the dot is shit to me

faint flare
#

Every time you refresh dots early is a large amount of lost damage

#

Same with refreshing buffs late

#

You do it extremely often and it's a major dps lost

ripe hound
#

I think he just means that he don't like how Monk needs to shuffle the rotations

leaden ginkgo
#

no not that

ripe hound
#

It's more of a, I have all jobs at lv 80 and I would rather not play Monk, even if it means I need to adjust to Caster or Healer or Tank

leaden ginkgo
#

i just dont care about the damage loss that much

ripe hound
#

You Wut

faint flare
#

Losing something like 50 potency or whatever just for clipping a dot early adds up EXTREMELY FAST

#

Especially when you remember just how.much you do it in a fight

#

That lost is easily multiplied into the thousands

leaden ginkgo
#

why would i clip the dot though?

eternal niche
#

do the starting stats of races matter?

faint flare
#

Because you're lazy and bad

ripe hound
#

But yeah, I don't play MNK but from what I'm hearing, MNK's rotations is more "freestyle", or like, you don't use combos

faint flare
leaden ginkgo
#

how would u even clip the dot anyway LOL by using a ogcd???????

faint flare
#

I told you

#

by using Demolish every 2 cycles instead of 3

#

Clips the dot

ripe hound
#

I think clipping is dot just means "Refreshing a DoT before it is almost gone"

faint flare
#

Which is a large dps lost

leaden ginkgo
#

ok that makes sense

#

well yea i dont use demolish every 3 cycles

#

becase dot/twin snake woudl need a refresh

faint flare
#

Twin refreshes every 2 cycles

#

Demolish is every 3

ripe hound
#

As a beginner in ShB I lined up my BRD's songs with DoTs...
I'll admit I wasn't so bright and I'm not proud of it

faint flare
#

They don't affect each other

leaden ginkgo
#

I know that demolish is the dot/twinis the buff

#

ah yeah twin is 3 seconds shorter

ripe hound
#

6s

leaden ginkgo
#

i can see why people will find it annoying

#

honestly should just make both skillsthe same duration or longer imo

faint flare
#

They're made that way with greased lightning in mind

obsidian patio
#

Monk’s full rotation goes like this
DK/Twin/Demo
Boot/True/Snap
DK/Twin/Snap
Boot/True/Demo
DK/Twin/Snap
Boot/True/Snap

leaden ginkgo
#

yea i can see why people hate that especially if ur used to a class like sam

ripe hound
#

But yeah, people have preferences, it's normal to have a job or two you just really really don't like playing, but you still leveled them to 80 because of completionism

wet cipher
obsidian patio
#

Doesn’t sound familiar to me

ripe hound
#

I like it though lol

fickle rampart
#

If I hit 70 on one job with the road to 70 buff. does it fall off for my other jobs?

faint flare
#

No

ripe hound
#

Also BRD is just, do this opener, then just keep going right?

#

Like, no rotation

#

Just adjust?

slate arrow
#

yep

obsidian patio
#

Just make sure to always pair raging with barrage

ripe hound
#

How do I learn BRD? Just hit a dummy for an hour?

obsidian patio
#

They shouldn’t drift apart

ripe hound
#

kk

#

Also no SkS needed for BRD right?

remote lintel
ripe hound
#

Oh nice

#

I can just use my MCH gear for BRD right?

obsidian patio
#

I think BiS uses like 2.48 but low is best for them

ripe hound
#

I see

ripe hound
obsidian patio
#

Correct

There is never a reason to use Burst Shot when Refulgent Arrow is ready right?

#

Why is low skillspeed good for ranged classes? does it keep their buffs and dots aligned better?

scarlet arrow
#

it varies by job

ripe hound
#

Varies by job, a lot of jobs want perfect alignments

#

Since Skillspeed don't effect CD of oGCDs

short jasper
#

Like with MCHs, they're already at max speed during their burst window so skillspeed doesn't affect them at all

scarlet arrow
#

DRK needs just enough SKS to fit 5 GCDs into its burst window

short jasper
#

If you break down a job by where most of their damage is from you can see some damage is affected by x speed and some isn't, and if too much is unaffected, x speed is garbo for that job, unless they have a specific concern like 'get x things in y seconds consistantly'

scarlet arrow
#

while DRG wants no SKS at all

short jasper
#

BLM loves SpS because most of its damage is from churning through their MP as fast as possible

dense hound
#

I really should move from a crit based meld and equipment set to a spell speed one.

short jasper
#

RDM hates SpS because 1/3 of its damage is unaffected, and sps's gains for getting more burst phases is negated by Manafication.

ripe hound
#

As BRD, do I always use Iron Jaws at the end of my Raging Skies window?

I saw a fucker with a 2.32 Fire IV cast within the last week.

blm can go either way by the by

Ah, really? I'm comfy with the 4x fire IV's and the big crits.
