sps and crit blm are close enough that its a preference thing
The diamond weapon has speed, don't have stuff for Augmented cryptlurker
I do like that my static's blm prefers sps builds so we literally compete on no gear ever
Or edenmorn
pros and cons of sps vs crit
Wait I don't think any of the Diamond weapons have sks or sps?
pro of speed: MORESPLOSIONS
They're all, every last one, either crit/det or crit/piety.
What's the best potd floor set to spam for leveling?
51-60
Ok thx 
Does anyone know where you can get the Callers Attire after boosting SMN?
with centurio seals in the forgotten knight, in ishgard
3 for step 1. 1 for step 2, 1 for step 3, 2 for step 4(once) the artifacts
3 for a phase, 1 for the phase after, 1 for the phase after that, 2 for the one-time only, then timeworn artefacts. So... 7 types.
The one for 3 phase I got 20 of each
But when I go talk to the man p
It says don’t have the items
Unequip the weapon
Do you have the weapon you're working on unequipped while being on that job?
The. Unequip it
Put on a different weapon for that job.
Remove it
It has to be in your inventory or armory chest
okay so the "pure white dye" lists two required dye items.
does that mean I need one of each to dye something?
no
its just two options
you can either use pure white, or the general purpose. you don't need both
general purpose being the tradeable version, the pure white being untradeable
Yeah you can use either option.
||Tandred got Norted and joined Org 13 and i had to use my keyblade on him||
Is there a weapon enhancement system in this game like you have to do +5 +10 and all that?
I see, thanks
If I create a character on a preferred world, do I get double xp until 70 for EACH class, or just until I get 70 in ANY class?
No
All jobd
it'll apply to all jobs
It hides itself when you're 70 or more
ok so i can get 70 in my first class and then switch to a new class and still get double. cool.
dont forget the ring you get for doing the novice missions, bonus XP until 30
basically when you hit 70 on one job the buff disappears until you switch to an under 70 job. assuming you're still within your 90 day window
@short blaze how do i get that ring?
Hall of the novice
what's the point of fire III over fire I?
Do all the Hall of the Novice missions
I'm waiting for off peak hours at the moment so it'll let me create a character on a preferred realm. currently they're all locked.
is hall of the novice in every main city?
i think so
It swaps your stance with all 3 stacks opposed to just 1
Fire and blizzard 3 are for swapping stances
Is it possible to unsync Keeper of the Lake as a lvl 60 PLD?
I love to play on pc and my ps5. I recently got the digital collectors edition of the upcoming expansion for the pc version, would it be sufficient if I just get the normal edition for my ps5? Just wondering if the extra items from the collectors would still be accessible.
In a few levels you get a trait that makes fire 1 proc a free instant cast fire 3, which is good for damage or movement
when you're about to go into your first dungeon, the game will lead you to the hall of novices first
so when it does that, feel free to do the exercises
I'm leaning towards "no", because it's difficult to interact with the thing you need to click during the final boss if you're being interrupted by attacks
what does it mean when there's someone with a bomb next to their name?
busy status
What's the default keys for this? I accidentally removed it
Alt+R
For the bitter memory is hey one if I do level 60 dungeon it’s not RNG where you get one sometimes?
tyty
You’ll always get it from level 60 dungeons when done synced
for binding coils story which ones are important
Or do o need to be astro with my resistance weapon?
how long is e12s p2?
All the resistance steps can be done as any class
!faq blmleveling
Just keep following this
for binding coil and second coil, the story bits are mostly focused on the last turns (turn 5 and turn 4) respectively. For final coils, both turn 3 and turn 4 are important.
8 minutes and 44 seconds
Ty
ok and I dont have to do all of em to unlock the other tiers right
cause it seems like they give em to me in a bundle
yea, you only have to do the last turn (5 for binding coil/4 for second coil) to unlock the next series
ok
if you guys preorder do you get all pre order items right away?
or do you have to wait until EW
What is Drk knight and warrior specialize in? Like I know gnb suppose to be the most damage or something, what about those two?
you get the ingame items in the moogle mail straightaway unless its the collectors edition then they come later iirc
all tanks do damage
they are tanks, and their dmg is about equal
warrior has more self heals and dark knight uses magic
Magic?
yes they use MP
Like magic abilities
even GNB does like ~5% more at most. we say they do the most damage but its mostly a joke/meme
they have skills that use MP
Oh so it’s not true
and lore wise they use dark magic
i thought the latest fflogs show paladin does marginally more dmg?
So warrior has the most sustain
paladin and warrior have the most sustain
Paladin most utilities?
it has the most utility by like....1 skill
no sure about latest. havent checked in a while. i do recall all the tanks are very close to each other
What is gnb good at
gnb just plays most like a dps
Fluid damage and good Cooldowns
thats it
it starts at the highest lvl too
people say it's more fun to play than the other classes.
and the glamour looks cooler...like it has a whole biker chique going on
It's my go tank cause it's fluid
They do seem simpler to play
also people say GNB playsmore like a DPS class so you won't get bored
gnb has the more complicated rotation of all the tanks
I haven’t tried warrior or Paladin yet I was gonna buy a boost for one just wasn’t sure which
really? i feel like it's paladin, but i guess it depends on the person
don't you have to weave holy spirit with requiescat and confiteor?
That's not weaving
BLU question. For the ARR Primal spells, is the learn rate 100% on synced?
That's just doing your magic burst

Yes. Sync makes all spells guaranteed
Thanks!
As WAR, after I get my damage buff on, should I spend a charge of 50-rage-fill (forget the name, Infu-something) and use the cri-direct hit before entering the zero-cost buff (rage something?). Like, I will want to have the cooldown of Infu-something to always on-ticking
Yes, you never want Infuriate to be capped on 2 charges
infuriate
Yes, use inner chaos before entering inner release
That's a direct loss of DPS from reduced uses of Inner Chaos
Like use Infuriate as yoy pull then Use the hit after using Eye
whats the fastest way to get the squadron emotes?
Im reffering to the do 10 squadron missions with your squad
10 separated dungeons for just 10?
if just 10, vigil seems to be the fastest
or wanderer's palace where you yourself can get very high ilv compared to the dungeon content
They're seriously making me run Delubrum Reginae 15 times for my final relic step? lol... won't this take like 20 hours of just farming the same raid over and over?
48 seems to be just aurum vale spam
@frozen wind i did stone vigil for my last 5 dungeon runs after the 1st 5 unique
Welcome to relics
they say vigil is the fastest most exp one
If people bother to use essences, Dr can take 30mins
Not if you only take 30 minutes per run!
Kk I'll bring some essences
Not really, DR can be quicker if you use essences.
DPS ones, specifically
I heard you can do it another way outside of DR?
You don't even need a LOT of people using essences
will they shorten that in a later patch?
don't want to do relics then find out that i could have done in half the time aweek later
^
so i can start doing my HW andSB relics now?
I've done all the relics but this one is uniquely annoying for some reason. I'll be glad to be done with it
you still have to go through all of shb to get there anyways which is like 20 hrs snack 
It's extremely rare for them to nerf current relic steps
without worrying they will shorten it?
Not very likely given this relic is already about as short as previous ones post nerf
So there's a ton of MSQs between level 50 and 80, lots seem to be patched in, etc in updates. Am I supposed to do ALL of them as a first time player?
do we know what the 535 relic looks like yet? so curious
yes @gleaming finch
it is 6 months away from now. Even if you do DR once/day. you will finish it in half of a month
the story is linear
It's a linear story so yes.
that's a lot of MSQ quests haha...
likely look like the previous step, but glow different? 😄
Yes, the game is locked behind a story, and like any tv show, it's best to do the shows in season order to understand what's going on. So, the story is locked behind story.
Cool, just seems like a TON of MSQs from 50 and above
Next steps.will have new model and glow
it always goes expansion > post expansion quests > expansion > post expac quests > etc
I wasn't aware there would be a new appearance for the 535 version
thanks all
I only have the unfinished level 50 ARR grimoire
just take your time :3 there's 6 months till the next expac and you deffo have enough time to finish
Likely a new model with new glow, there's no way our final step is going to be 'Really Cool Law's Order Thing'
do need to do the previous ones to unlock?
Relics always go No glow > glow > no glow > glow
here's hoping SCH doesn't look like shit 🙃
Thanks 🙂 I'll try! early on this story is a little bland. I just hit the level 40 quests so I"ll try to pay more attention
Every expansion's relic is unique and constrained to that expansion. No need to concern yourself with previous expansions--especially given they release new jobs anyways.
Last question, when would we know what 535 ilvl ones would look like? isn't that final patch coming out soon(ish)?
where do is tart relic weapons at level 80?
We wouldn't know before the patch on may 25th, when dataminers can get a hold of them probably.
It's not been datamined so unless they do a blog post, we all find out at the same time on launch
If you've completed Return to Ivalice, Kugane, and then go from there.
I havent done any of the relic weapons outside of teh unffined arr itl 50 one
so would I go to kugane?
What is a free company? People are sending me tells to join theirs, but I have no idea what it is.
Player guilds
They're guilds but called FCs
oh
As a heads up, you'll get introduced to a zone called Bozjan Southern Front. You will have an option to get relic steps down outside it, however, you still will need to level a stat called mettle in BSF to level 10 and complete the story there to continue the relic. The alternate methods of acquiring materials will not replace your need to do the Bozja content as well.
Is there a benefit to joining one?
getting whatever buffs they have
I dont think i have bozjan unlocked
Im level 80 and caught up to the shadowlands main story
shadowlands
You.need to do the lv70 24mans for it
wrong game lmao
*SHADOWBRIGERs
Have you completed Rabanaster, Ridorana, and Orbonne from Stormblood?
You need to do those first--Bozja is a continuation of that story.
Then from there go ham.
if i buy endwalkers on the pc and have my account also link to psn, would i also have to buy endwalkers on the ps4
yes
Yes
Any suggestion between Malboro and Brynhildr for a new player?
No
both are fine
I pre-ordered Endwalker last night but I did not get the earrings in my mail box am I missing something here
it should come eventually
if it took more than 48 hours, go ahead and contact support. they are kinda overloaded at the moment with the sheer number of people pre-ordering
I just got it lol maybe because the servers last night were crazy
you applied the pre order code to your account, right?
I did .. just got it thanks 🙂
if i pre order endwalker do i get storm blood and shadow walker?
Is this still the best exp even though I got the bonus already?
thats so sad
yeah, if the level of dungeon ends with a 0, it won't give as much xp as one that ends with 1/3/5/7/9
Not too sure ill find any dungeon queues this late at night
!faq mogstation
There
alright new question how do you get some gear for your alt classes at this level?
i can't even queue the 61 dungeon
Poetic gear
using the gunbreaker starter gear atm
Shire in idyllshire/ishgard
if you dont mind spending gil instead of poetics, you can find gear in kugane too
gunbreaker starter set is 255
you just need accessories
so can i not put in the endwalker standrad edition code in rn?
only the pre purchase one?
Only preorder code
heard
You don't get the standard edition code until around or after early access begins
but i did from steam
Same thing, you cant enter it until then
gotcha
Yeah that's still pretty visible
Is getting to Before the dawn a MSQ?
Yes
yes
do msq
is it better to do standard or entry subscription?
Entry
the next one i have is the Price of Principels
Standard is if you're a major alt a holic
Entry is good enough for most people unless you want to play multiple characters on the same server
ok ty
I only receive the mount and Porom minion from EW when it is out?
yes
bruh
!faq savageloot
Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion
Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.
Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.
The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests
The first and second floors of each tier have the ability to drop multiple of the same coffers
Do the Brand-New Ring and Menphina's Earrings xp bonuses stack when under lvl 30?
Yes
Ok thanks 😄
So are there any benefits to the company choice?
No
no
anything asthetic related?
so i did the ARR MSQs, now i have to do the non ARR MSQs so i can get to the next area
it only seems like 20 or so but its still a good ammount
not whem compared to ARR but still lol
@grizzled crater are you left clicking or right clicking?
Make sure you're clicking on the chat tab and not the weird round thing to the left of it
Restarting the game and clicking and dragging worked for me
does dragging the other tabs pull them out into separate chat windows?
So during CLL (in jp) what timer is the ET xxxx callout usually referring to
pulling at eorzea time?

whats the best level 50 dunegon for leveling?
ET 07:00 means they’re gonna pull the boss at 7am in-game so that the top and bottom boss start at the same time, which is how it works on other datacenters too
Aurum vale
by that, i mean i get the most bang out of my time
none. do aurum vale
aurum?
Yes
dungeons at level cap give very little exp
Poetic dungeons have shit xp
either do Main scenario roulette or AV yea
Is the praeterium a bad one to go to then?
Oh definitely
its fine but its long
I was thinking it may be okay sine i get event tomestones otu of it for mount but
Only good in roulette
Oh eorzea time right, i always judt have local time
Thought ET was just ETA shortened, thanks
i’ve been spamming it for tomestone with a lvl 50 class, the exp isnt fantastic but it’s ok if your main focus is the moogle event
tbh
the mount sucks
but its still a seasonal event thing and I dont want to miss out
are all 4 of eden's promise raid meant to be more difficult than the ShB ex trials?
yes
normal raids are slightly harder than msq dungeon bosses
and is ultimate alexander supposed to be even harder than savage eden promise?
Normal content > extremes > savages >>>>> ultimates
Unreal are extremes
Not above ultimate
the difference from savage to ultimate is the same as msq to savage
Normal and Hard fall under the same difficulty = Story
Hi Im thinking about playing this game and want join a new player friendly guild. Is there a place for guild recruitment around here? Any tips?
!faq communityfinder
recruitment channel or community finder
How do you unlock E9-E12
I have currently done E1-E4 but I did those at the launch of 5.0
Do 5.3 story
Complete patch 5.3 story and do the 2nd tier of Eden
Gotta do E5-8
kk how hard are they to learn/find a party to learn w/.
It's story content so it's very easy
They're casual content
Can be done blind
Don't stand in bad stupid
rlly, I remember them being really hard
Avoid obvious telegraphed stuff
or am i thinking of the savages
heh, I don't remember at all... that was 2 yrs ago 😛
Well quick refresher course:
Giant Arrow Marker pointing down: Stack
Giant Arrow Marker pointing away from person: get away from person
Little flaming arrows: Spread
Giant orange circle: bad, avoid
can we make that a sticky?
tyty
i'll pin it for now
thank you
pankrat one has the same stats but det instead of direct hit
At that point it doesn't matter much cause it's before accessories become role locked
ah
I guess later ones are role locked i never noticed
anyway which would you recco
det or DH
@whole wasp smug we have an faq for markers
i derp
Doesn't super matter so take whatever. You won't notice the difference
Alright then
!faq marker
How many professions can you have? Can you have all of them?
can you solo dungenons at 50ish?
just trying to clear my hunt list not do any bosses
Yes you can have all of them
🙂 !
You won’t be able to solo The Wanderer’s palace at 50, but the other two dungeons (Halatali and Qarn) will definitely be doable with good level 50 gear like ironworks
You got hit by the ice debuff twice, which instant kills.
Normally in an 8-man party the ice dragon hits different people with it, and you use the fire tether to get rid of the ice debuffs
But since you’re solo you’re the only target for the ice dragon so it hits you twice for an instant kill
Basically you need to slowly nudge Nael’s health to just before she enters that phase, signaled by her using Bahamut’s Favor, and then super quickly burst her down before the ice dragon hits you twice
from the story i skipped i can rewatch it in the inn from journey ?
yes
but there's some event didn't show up there
Not all cutscenes are in it
can i use it as a source to learn the story
They don’t usually include the ones where people just stand still and talk to each other without voices
what do allagan tomestones do
Pageantry is a seasonal tomestone added for fanfest and gets a bunch of different cosmetic/vanity stuff
do u ever get more free fantasias after ARR?
no
:sadge:
nope, only the one
thanks !
im getting real sick of the miqote tail clipping like 80% of the armors in this game
has any news been released abt the state of bunny people hats
you can just mod it out
i hatre the one piece armor torsos...with ear holders
lv 40 armor? Here have an Iron set of sleepers!!! now do 5 cutscenes with no emotion on your face!!!
what is the differences between free company and cross world linkshell?
id rather have no hat then have tail clipping but like i could mod it
#rants, but just glam over it
viera hair clips a lot too so ¯_(ツ)_/¯
free company chat is a channel for your free company
FC is a guild. CWLS is a chatroom
the crossworld linkshell is a channel commposed of people that join that channel
and is cross-world
unlike FC chat
There are plenty of short hair options for viera
Ooooh okie I get it. Thanks 🙂
when will that special fanfest tomestone be gone?
in a month
more to the point there are a number of less clippy hairstiles for bunny girls?
June 14th
ah nice
was thinking of trying out the free ffxiv trial
a bit confused on the data servers/worlds thing
Where do you live?
You do
yea exp bonus in preferred worlds
One moment
each server in the data center has its "thing"
one is the big streamer/contentcreator one i cant remember which one though
everyone in the same datacenter can party up and do dungeons together
sagentreus?
not everyone in the same datacenter is in the same world
so basically just pick a general data center, and then any server in it?
Each server does not have its own thing.
certain worlds are preferred so get exp bonus
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
There's only like some worlds which are known for something
!preferred crystal
theres no server known for having like a bunch of spaniards?
not specifically no
huh
@manic heath see above
Crystal is the one Datacenter known for more RP than the others but that's it. All of NA's servers are the same
when it ssays "world" do they mean the names of the worlds on each data center?
The faq I linked has all the info
World = servers
A Datacenter is a collection of a few worlds grouped together
yup
Its ideal yes
is there a way to transfer world/server/data centers if you want to later?
yes but it costs $
well if I'd be willing to play it that long the money would be worth
there are some specific scenarios where its free like trasfering from crowded to preferred
or be on any server and transfer to a new one
Strongly recommend playing on a preferred server.
yeah I don't see any downside
There is no downside to it.
you would lose your house

Those servers aren’t significantly underpopulated.
he cant even get a house hes trial
Nor own one
afaik the cheapest one is 500k
Those are apartments
even relatively crowded servers get preferred sometimes, its doesnt mean theres less people.
That’s an apartment not a house.
f2p can only hold 300k before the wallet leaks
i know i was just listing the downside
yeah like I cant even buy an apartment
I know basically nothing about FF XIV except: it's based on FF it's story heavy
The cheapest house is three million and change
so idk about this house business
that's the only thing you have to aware of when transferring worlds
anyway back to your question, any server is fine but pick one near where you live, in this case NA datacenter and pick a preferred server ideally for the exp boost
from what I've heard the free trial is pretty generous
It is!
you can play free trial indefintely
yes, there is no time limit and it has content up to the first expansion
incredibly generous wow
!faq freetrial
It is. You can play all the story and content up to level 60 (base game + first expansion)
the only weird shit is that u cant message people and your capped at money
you get base game and one full expansion
Yeah, social and trade limitations
its because of bots
lol what you can't chat?
you can chat but not whisper
no u can use /say
you can use the /say command
ahh yes the bane of all mmos
people can whisper you
u cannot /shout /yell or /tell
and you can chat in party
You can chat, but not send pms
gotcha public only
You can use party chat and the global novice network
you can chat in party
u are capped at 300k gil
is that a lot?
i spend my gil powerleveling blacksmith when I hit cap
You can’t use the marketboard or trade
not really
Is broil III worth keeping in hotbar?
Gil isn’t particularly important.
yes
well when I play more I'll know more
Buy materials like classically coke
I see
there is roundabout way where you buy unidentifiable stuff, trade them for topsoil and sell the topsoil in the MB
the free companies sell coke? lmao
!item coke
Oh it's called unidentifiable
I'll check it out
yes
Coke is a form of fossil fuel.
no wait i derp. i think thats poetics
is kan e senna a hyur? is this revealed at all during the msq
No... GC don't sell that
you said company seal right
oh lol
i derp
im going to go in with no knowledge of anything, I'm hoping this will enhance my enjoyment
as I heard it's kinda like a single player jrpg
lol, for Company Seals it's just buy random mats right?
yea
you can also buy stuff for yourself like dark matter for repairs, glamour prisms and aethryte tickets
aetheryte tickets will prob help you save gil but wont convert it into proper gil
guess malboro is the only one open and preferred
yea either marlboro or brynhildr
hope u like cigarettes
not a big fan of smoking lol
!status brynhildr
bryn is currently closed to new characters but its time based
Oh I can buy Aetheryte Tickets, cool
smoking bad
if you check later, it might open up if you wanna go there
marlboro is fine too if you wanna
I like that attitude
time based as in...hours or days or weeks lol
Most people are picky
time based as in when enough people log out
oh interesting
Nope, they don't sell Aetheryte Ticket either lol D:
I'll just buy some Minium, Peacock Ore or something
lol
aside from hitting level 50, is there another prerequisite for unlocking poetics as your reward for doing roulettes?
But yeah, Aetheryte Tickets are surprisingly rare lol
I just dinged 50 and was hoping to start poetic farming for my tank because he feels incredibly squishy in the level 50 content and I dont wanna die LOL
if you beat ARR you can run that for poetics but its sleeper
ah rip
otherwise I think you need to unlock 50/60/70 dungeon roulette
Like,
I too have absolutely no use of Gold Feathers! /s
which is... even deeper in kekw
I still have those gold feathers when i first started playing ffxiv 4 years ago.
Still dont dare to spend them
Yeah, I got a friend to play FFxiv, and grabbed a Twintania mount
It's mostly that Twintania was the first Savage content I had ever done in FFxiv
So it's kinda a memory
Yes
Is it worth it doing weekly DR runs?
If I still have classes that need the 510 gear it's kinda worth it right?
Yeah it’s pretty decent
if you can get the marketboard gear, or at least afford to, you can augment it from 510 to 520
which is objectively better, but it's fine if you just need 510 stuff
it's also FF12 judge armor which is just objectively badass 🙂
I just hit 80 with my first class, what gear should I be pursuing?
!faq gearguide
So in short, Edenmorn.
i mean are you going for bis?
Depends on if you are looking to devote your time to learning and farming savage.
and you need to meet the min ilvl to do eden savage anyway
It would be nice
bis is a mix of savage and tome gear
I have a small question, what happens to your houses if you yeet yourself on another world?
By yeet you mean transfer world?
Yup
is there an easy way to track monsters when farming for a specific item?
you can't transfer until you relinquish your house
Yeah you have to meet requirements. No FC, no house or land, etc
Not sure if there is a discord faq command thing,
What does “CP items” mean I was doing lower lvl dungeons and someone was kinda toxic towards one of the newbies in it and through tantrum in chat 🤔
CP its basically crafter points, so i assume the person the comment was directed to was wearing crafting gear
Aha, well can’t blame a newbie for anything but that toxic guy got on me lol
Whys it saying I'm not ready for this? Those stats are extremely close
yeah its not something someone should rage about. just a gentle like "hey that's not appropriate gear for you" would've been better
because flagged missions require you to meet all 3 stat requirements @wispy shell
basically keep leveling/hope for better chemistry
hey is there any comback event going on now?
bit of a pain im still bottlenecked by this for upgrading my rank
how do i get into raids? is it grinding Hardmodes until my ilevel is high enough?
thinking about coming back to play I already have a lv50 character
is there a faster way to level other than sending them on 18h commissions?
currently no
dungeons aren't ever a great method of gearing up, other than the fact that you get some tomestones from them
What raid are you trying to prepare for?
still in ARR right now?
just finished ARR and im doing theinbetween MSQs to get to the next spot
if i desub now and resub when EW comes out would i lose my house?
You can do the command missions if you want to be more pro-active I guess
fuck
you can pick up the Crystal Tower raids by doing the Legacy of Allag quest in Mor Dhona
the ilvl requirement is very low, you qualify already
Those are better exp? I've never tried them
Does Rt70 boost work on that too?
if you enter your house on the last day of your sub, you can resub 44 days later to keep the house
so whatever 44 days counting backwards from Early Access
It depends on how much time you have. I found mine would level up every 3ish dungeons iirc (been a while), so that was a level up every 70ish mins
hello i just brought the game ^_^, is there a server list to decide which one to join?
Anything that says Preferred will give a 90 day XP bonus to newly created characters
!faq world pick
I may just leave them on commissions then, not in too much a rush but would be nice to finally reach the final rank of the grand company
!faq worldpick @vague meteor
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
character creation is locked when there are too many people logged in, so creating on one of the Preferred worlds may take a couple tries
ideally during non-peak hours
You can save your appearance once you're done making it though
i see i see, thanks for the info i appreciate it
if i just want a server with the most quantity of players, which ones would you recommend?
Train them 3 times a day before sending them on the 18 hour mission, assuming you’re on for 4 hours a day at roughly the same time. You’ll get there either way. If you have any classes to level command missions can be a decent source of exp if you want to kill two birds with one stone
@vague meteor any
What gives out Gp? I bought 50k in level 220 botany stuff, except for weapons and rings, and I can’t use this 500 gp skill.
gear, materia, food
I’m just going to assume it’s the weapons.
How to activate a guild levi i forgot
Accept the quest from NPC then activate it in your Journal at the very bottom of the list
guildleves are in the dutyfinder
Is it ok if my character is called Hugs Please? Or is that too stupid? I'm used to it from other games but I don't know what the FFXIV community is like with names. I'm also not used to having both a first and surname in a game.
nobody cares what your name is
unless its like
against TOS
ive seen dr phil, luigi jr, colonel sanders, clappus cheekus, colonoscopy bag, etc
Table Cloth springs to mind
Ok. Mine doesn't seem so bad then xD thanks
the worst thing that might happen is you might receive more hug emotes than usual??
@uneven tendon thank you
I give out a lot of hug emotes :D I used to get called Hugs. It became a bit of a running joke that I got used to.
Just got storm captain, and got the glam I wanted from the store. Is there any reason not to start again on another GC?

You have to be in the GC of the glamour items you want to wear
so you need to stay in Maelstrom to wear Maelstrom gear
You can’t use that glam if you’re under a different GC IIRC so if you’re fond of it/using it currently you might want to avoid it. There’s also a delay before being able to swap back
do recruits stay if I swap and then swap back after the 2 week cooldown?
They keep their level but you won’t have access to them in the new GC until you’ve done all the pre-requisites to unlock them there
So they follow you over to the new GC, but you need to get to the rank, do the hunting logs and dungeons etc
so i just got to ishgard and im level 54, i really want to play dancer, whats the fastest way to get myself to 60 to unlock it?
do msq
will do, thanks
Question for anyone that can help, I bought the game on release back in 2013? If I came back today, what expansions would i have/need to get going.
Also do your daily roulettes, especially leveling one.
If you can bear with MSQ Roulette (aka Netflix), also do that
Did you brought A Realm Reborn?
Anyway, you would have access to ARR (2.x) and HW (3.x)
You will need to buy ShB (6.x) to get all current expansions, or wait till November to buy (7.x) and grab all expansions together at the same price.
@ripe hound ok, cool, thank you for your help
Is there a way to cycle through hotbar with mouse scroller?
Anyone know if the preorder exp earring works in bozja?
ShB is 5.x btw
Yes but since you don’t get xp from mobs it doesn’t add much
does it work on the reward exp from skirmishes?
was hroth ever shown in shadowbringers promotional material?
yes
yes
in the trailer?
one of the promo images for it, used hrothgar
FINAL FANTASY XIV: SHADOWBRINGERS
JP: https://jp.finalfantasyxiv.com/shadowbringers/
NA: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/shadowbringers/
EU: https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/shadowbringers/
FR: https://fr.finalfantasyxiv.com/shadowbringers/
DE: https://de.finalfantasyxiv.com/shadowbringers/
is it the only one? cause i think i remember seeing only one image in the steam page
there's also the AF promo images that has hrothgar for pld
and the crafting gear images
|| did they announce female hrothgar or just male viera? I didn't get to watch the whole stream ||
they said they were going to add fem hroths later
Wait this isn't a spoiler?
its not connected to the plot?
I thought that even races in this game had a part in the story
no
not in a way that makes their announcement a spoiler
like theres nothing about viera or hrothgar that connect them to the story
they just appear
not to mention that viera and hrothgar are already in-game...its just adding the opposite genders
Wait they announced opposite genders for hroth and viera? 
Was there a image for female hrothgar?
I didn't watch fanfest or the live letter
no
all we know is that hrothgals will be a thing in the future
no concept art or anything
Excuse me, I have a question. Do you have to meld materia yourself? or are there npcs that can do it for you? Im trying to do the A Relic Reborn quest.
eventually™ as SE says
there's materia melders in the major cities
i guess there around the main shops and stuff?
Oh! okay lol. thank you very much.
When a new class comes out do they add the wepaons to the vendors?
Right away or do u have to farm them
the vendors in the new areas yes
Wait so if Sage and Reaper start at 70 does that mean they'll have Augmented Scaevan weapons?
no
yes
Lol

dancer and gunbreaker have shire weapons
This is why I can't trust answers
oh they do add poetic gear retroactively
One says yes one says no
they dont add vendor gear retroactively
One's a mentor and the other isn't
GNB/DNC got shire weapons when they got added, so Sage/Reaper should get scaevan weapons too
And then Sage/Reaper should share the Scaevan gear of healers and DRG respectively right
yes
Can't wait to unlock gunbreaker I just wanna be squall
they'll also have generic lv 70 vendor/crafted weapon
Why would they have a generic weapon 10 levels below their starting level
sorry brain was defaulting to gnb/dnc
Oh
wait dont the classes all start at 1? do the higher classes start higher?
DLC classes jobs don't start at 1
@fickle rampart some start at 30 some 50 and some 60
weird
MCH, DRK and AST (HW) start at 30, SAM and RDM (SB) start at 50 and GNB and DNC (ShB) start at 60
HW start at 30, the others start 20 below that expansion’s level cap
When Endwalker goes live in late November Sage and Reaper will start at 70
its 10 below
sb starts at 60
I wonder how long it will take to go from 80-90 when end comes out
and shb starts at 70
RDM/SAM start at 50.
oh i misread level cap
Are there any achievements for worlds fi st new level cap reached or just bragging rights?
First*
Sigh has anyone had luck getting their account back when they don’t have access to their old email. I just got locked out of my account and I don’t have access to my old email account from way back.
no achievements for getting to max lvl first
you only get blue gear if you level boosted them. you got generic lev 60 gear unlocking them.
there's no level boost for newly released expansion jobs...
He was answering the question of if Sage and Reaper would have Augmented Scaevan gear
you cant boost dnc and gnb?
Can the nier copied factory drop any mounts?
Since they start at 70
you could buy it
@fading aurora no
there's no mounts in nier raids
yes but they also had shire gear
If I want to play ffxiv on a different steam account than the one I originally brought it on do I just rebuy it and log in like normal or is there anything else I need to do?
which is what the question was pertaining to, whether sage and reaper will have scaevan
which they will because gnb/dnc have shire weapons
where the hell did they get blue gear at start
That's what I'm thinking seby
we're not talking about getting it straight from the quest....
yeah, buying with poetics
@delicate pawn it's tied to your account so it would not work otherwise
we're talking about that they will have poetic weapons
Sage and Reaper should have regular 70 crafted gear but also should have poetics gear
More specifically, if they'll have Scaevan weapons
ok just confused since nobody said anything about buying them with poetics XD
Oh
made it sound like they'd have blue gear at unlock
Yeah that's what we meant was the 70 poetics gear
can you get dancer/gunbreaker boosts now? or are they saving that for expansion
Though I'm not sure why you'd boost a job by, what, 20 levels?
i mean you can boost rdm and sam
that much less grinding, especially if you use roulettes to cap tomes
weekly 450 limit
if you're doing roulettes for weekly tomes, you're not getting exp
also there won't be weekly tomestones at the start anyway
maybe cap sooner now when you can rival wings spam
and then if you can get in a hunt train or two
So what's the blue mage all about? It's a "limited job"?
memes
its side content
basically collecting monster spells, and doing weird/stupid shit
Blue Mage is called a limited job because by itself it's extremely overpowered
You can't do MSQ or roulettes or queue up normally for anything as BLU
eh, you can get overpowered spells at low levels
Oh dang really? Hmm
I mean it sounds interesting
once you get to 60-70 content, it's not super overpowered besides non-bosses that die to doom

You need an Undersized Party or a premade party to do instanced content like dungeons and trials
is ff14 cpu bound or something?
isnt there the blue mage duty finder now?
I've just been wondering cause of the "blue mage spellbook" in the menu
Not that I'm aware of but I don't have BLU
No
Oh that's because as BLU you have the ability to unlock a total of 104 spells
Oooo
You can have 24 of those 104 spells equipped at any one time
any game that has a lot of player characters in the same area will likely be CPU bound more than GPU bound, aka MMOs
BLU duties still need to be done through PF
ffxiv is more cpu intensive, yes
There's also Aetherial Mimicry which changes a majority of BLU spells based on the role you mimic
Destiny 2 would be one of the rare ones that needs a half-decent GPU and a good CPU
I only ask cause im mining and no Frame drops at all
Oh really d2?
yeah, having other players around is what really wrecks lower end CPUs
I'm still waiting for them to iron out the ps5 framerate issues. It's nothing awful. It's just in towns lime eulmore but it still bugs me since the ps4 version on PS5 runs stable smooth 60
@naive kraken im ruinninga 9700F
I am as well. Unfortunately if theres 100 players around, code doesn't scale well enough for CPUs to handle it
If I have A Realm Reborn and Heavensword, do I need to buy Stormblood before Shadowbringers, or can I just buy Shadowbringers?
Shadow
stormblood comes with shadowbringers
SB and ShB are bundled together
You'll get stormblood with it
ty guys
My game seems to split between CPU and gpu
and its pretty unlikely you'll find stormblood by itself anyway these days
Mostly CPU though
It doesn't matter which you buy because you either get both or neither
eventually the AMD CPUs with the 16+ cores will handle MMOs that code for more than 2-4 cores/threads
Yeah aside from physical copies you won't find stormblood by itself I imagine
but that's still fairly niche
Haptics in the PS5 version are super good
the physical collectors?
Yes
What do you play on friend
Wut
Fuck I wanted the pin
turn on higher resolution and eye candy, it needs more GPU power, you want middling graphics settings so the GPU takes more processing and doesn't tax the CPU. low settings tends to push most effort on the CPU and the GPU does near nothing
@naive kraken I have everything on max
I run a i9 and a 3090 graphics card
It still splits between GPU and cpu
When I play
should probably take this to #technology-discussion unless you've got a question about it
This smells like some #technology-discussion discussion to me
They haven't announced any other new race apart from male and female for viera and hrothgar?
correct
they said they dont want to add any more races
said back at the shb fanfests that hrothgar and viera are likely going to be the last races for awhile
since adding new races is a ton of work
I've herd that from other games that added 2+ more races
Not long after
viera and hroths cant even wear hats still
WoW races are mostly reskins with gear that's usually just painted on the body.
is there and LFG chat in this server?
im leveling up a BLM from scratch and would like to buddy up with a healer to make queues faster
Not really.
You can try the recruitment channels but those are for more long-term stuff like Free Comanies (player guilds) and groups for endgame content.
Is it normal to miss certain dungeons/raids after completing arr? Just got into heavensward and found out there was content I didn't do
There's content in HW I haven't unlocked yet despite being almost halfway through SB 4.0
So yes
Since I may as well, what are the preferred stats for PLD? (Anima weapon)
Good to know, thanks
Is Prae the most efficient way to earn tomestones for the event?
didn't watch all of the fan fest presentation yesterday, is Soken still battling cancer or did he beat it?
he's currently in remission
The current popular ones are Hades EX, Nidhogg EX with blue mages, and PVP with good queues
Starter pack includes only the first expansion right?
Are there any items on mog station that give gil apart from level boosts?
nope
what can i do with spare triad cards? i've got a xande spare
Nidhogg ex with blue mages?
exchange them for mgp at the gold saucer
yes
Sell em in gold saucer
there's a TT vendor at the main counter and one in the TT area
thanks! +rep
Blue Mages do more damage than other jobs in synced content
Wait you can exchange them for mgp?!?! I've been throwing them away T^T
