I mean everyone got to start somewhere lol

short jasper
#

This won't be the most popular view point, Akira, but

ripe hound
#

XIVanalysis be like "Sir have you ever tried NOT DYING?"

short jasper
#

If you get grey on your first, or first couple clears? Who cares, you cleared!

honest anvil
#

pink also needs some more good coordinations from your team than not-pink afaik ... not a must must but that's usually the case ...

lime garnet
#

Is there a damage meter in game anywhere? Or any other addons?

remote lintel
#

not in game

ripe hound
remote lintel

its a third party tool

ACT/Parsing

Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.

ACT/FFLogs Guide

Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.

short jasper
#

Right now, focus on progression, and getting your BiS. Parses will come if you put in the effort to improve and optimize. But at your level, getting the boss dead is far far far more of a climb and don't feel bad about a grey on a clear--many players don't see the clear.

#

That said, you might actually find it easier to get the relic before E12S weapon if you have the time (and haven't already cleared E11S yet)

#

And doing that will make getting those first clears easier.

ripe hound
#

But yeah, I guess clear is still much more important than parse

short jasper
lapis sable
#

if you get big parse but dont get the clear whats the point

ripe hound
#

Yeah, still, as a MCH, I'm kinda the "the only utility provided is damage" type of DPS

lapis sable
#

at least thats what it seems like to me

ripe hound
#

Damage + Tactician I guess

short jasper
#

MCH has Tactician which is great for prog

ripe hound
#

Yeah, 11s doggy uptime stuff

short jasper
#

You're doing fine.

ripe hound
#

Yeah, I guess I have to start somewhere

short jasper
#

Exactly.

ripe hound
#

Getting Blue Parses on first clear is weird too lol

short jasper
#

Kinda is, yeah, lol

ripe hound
#

But yeah, xivanalysis is like "HAVE YOU TRIED NOT DYING BEFORE!"

leaden ginkgo
#

What level do you have to be to get a choboco

ripe hound
#

As in MSQ lv 15

short jasper
#

And yeah, seriously that is your first goal anyways

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.

ripe hound

Right, Dying is like THE ultimate downtime lol

potent lava

you can slowly make it through potd with df parties right? 10 floor at a time requeue etc

leaden ginkgo

will the manticore help in potd

spiral inlet
#

is eden farming capped to one item per week

short jasper
#

So hang in there, you're doing fine, and ultimately, you're gonna do fine. Make mistakes, learn from them, and I wish you skill in your future prog. (seriously though, relic weapon might be the better option if you haven't E12S clears yet)

ripe hound

As in, as a MCH, I should be able to play almost blindfolded lol, but I still relay on Hotbars too much

short jasper
ripe hound
#

Yeah, weird plugins like XIV Combo are definitely not mandatory to be a good player right?

short jasper
#

Honestly, you're fine, there's a lot of savage raiders that have that as well.

#

God no

ripe hound
#

I see

#

lol

#

I recently found out about it, and I just don't want to use it because I don't want to redesign my hotbars again lol

short jasper
#

Don't worry about being 'a good player', you're working on savage kills, mate, you're already doing good player things.

good evening everyone! i'm about to go from free trial to subscription and am wondering if anyone would like to be my friend for recruit a friend benefits

(first to message me will get it)

ripe hound
#

I just noticed Analysis Sensi be like, "Why are you breaking your combos?"

short jasper
#

That said, the next two fights are a lot harder than the first two, so you'll have good time to get used to them and master early steps while working on later ones

wispy shell
#

Can I use my lvl 1 goldsmith to desynth stuff to gain levels on goldsmith desynth skill?

jovial quarry
#

Desynth can't be used until your crafting class is level 30 or higher

wispy shell
#

so even though i have a lvl 80 other crafters the desynth one needs to be 30 at least?

jovial quarry
#

Yeah 30 is the bare minimum and there are no workarounds unfortunately.

The memphina earrings effect deep dungeons xp gain right

fast talon
#

quick question with regards to buying endwalker from the SE store, how does it work? do you buy it then they send you a code or something that you put into mogstatoin? PC by the way, non-Steam.

patent citrus
#

just make sure you login to the store using this account @fast talon

#

so the store will be able to know which region you are playing and direct you to the right one

fast talon
#

(why is facebook an option lol)

#

you know its weird that when i did log into the SE store the other day it took me to the EU store

teal charm
#

are there any like free codes that you can put in for bonus stuff?

fast talon
#

but my account's address is at least US

patent citrus
#

if you use the guest account which some people usually do, you might buy from the wrong store region and you'll get the code that you can't use

fast talon
#

but the thing is to get the game origially, i used the "upgrade from free trial" option on mogstation, so i actually dont know what region my game is

#

is there a way for me to check what region my game is?

patent citrus
#

through your SE(mogstation) account

#

the store will auto-detect if you use above option

fast talon
#

okay never mind today it took me to the US store

#

well thanks

patent citrus
#

yeh, the step after that you just check your purchase history and you'll get your code there

#

and you enter the code here

and you will get confirmation that you will get pre-order bonus etc

#

and since you are not on Steam, you will only get 1 code (Steam gets multiple)

twilit arch
#

you will get a second code later

#

steam just gets the full game code immediately

fast talon
#

alright cool, now this is a bit more specific of a question and im not sure if you'll know the answer, but does my paymention information (Paypal/CC) have to match the address i put in for my SE account? 'cause i had to use a US address of a relative to register my SE account 'cause SE doesnt acknowledge my country's existence

Does GNB need to double weave

#

Is it a must

fast talon
#

if you want to optimize your rotation, yeah

#

especially once you get continuation

#

but i think the balance has low-ping variants of some jobs, gnb included, for those that cant

#

or high ping rather

which job has your favorite class story quest?

remote lintel

dark knight

#

beats everything else

lean iris
#

returning player question: haven't played a looong time and want to come back and start fresh.....but i always hated how "simple" the early game is, what class would suffer the least from it?

leaden ginkgo
#

is deep dungeon a good way to level up

remote lintel
#

@lean iris none

lean iris
#

😦 the early game is truly the biggest barrier of entrance to the game, guess i can just play while netflixing lol

fast talon
mental oracle
#

Is dark knight SHB content?

brave vine
#

is there anyone else you can buy bozja replicas from aside from regana? the ones she sells doesnt glow

fast talon
#

This is not the case for jobs that came with future expansions.

brave vine
mental oracle
#

I didn't mean unlock. Was it introduced with shb?

fast talon
#

No, its heavensward

brave vine
#

no hw

mental oracle
#

Oh

fast talon
#

the jobs introduced in ShB were dancer and gunbreaker

mental oracle
#

Ty

fast talon
#

it just so happens that dark knight is like the mascot/poster boy for ShB

#

in the same way that Endwalker's is paladin

remote lintel

and hw is dragoon

Do people queue for Alexander - fist of the father? Just got the quest and Im curious to do it

tropic flame
#

yeah or you can make a duty completion PF for it :>

remote lintel
#

yes

muted vapor
#

I tried

tropic flame

ah okay, thats fair ^^ then you'll need to queue in normally

#

most people queue for alexander

i get it every time i do normal raid roulette

If it's not labeled as Extreme or Savage it's not really designed to be remotely difficult

muted vapor
manic rune
#

you can do pretty much everything *casual blind without a guide

remote lintel
#

being old doesnt mean its easier

manic rune
#

but you still need to pay attention

remote lintel
#

all casual content can be done blind

#

the only hard content is endgame content

manic rune
#

in older casual content you get less instant death mechanics

#

the attacks hit less bc of gear scaling

#

generally follow other ppl if you’re not sure

#

look at the bosses’ animations & use common sense

leaden ginkgo
#

is 173 good exp bonus or i can rise more

rugged flicker
#

Okay, can someone tell me why, after I pin hairstyles in the aestethtician menu, those hairstyles don't stay pinned the next time I open the menu?

remote lintel
#

because they dont save

rugged flicker
#

Why?

#

What the fuck is the point of pinning hairstyles if they don't save?

#

That's fucking stupid.

remote lintel
#

to compare them in that session

muted vapor
manic rune
#

that only applies for coils

remote lintel
#

because coils is savage mode

#

so nobody queues for it in duty finder

mental oracle
#

Do you get veteran rewards if you sub with crysta?

muted vapor
#

Oh....

remote lintel
#

@mental oracle yes

mental oracle
#

ty

muted vapor
#

So coil is always savage?

#

I got it now

remote lintel
#

yes coils is savage by default, there is no normal version

#

all other 8 man raids have a normal version and savage version

manic rune
#

coils was made back when the devs were first experimenting w endgame content

muted vapor
#

Same with Odin. I remember someone saying that to for it

remote lintel
#

odin is extreme by default

muted vapor
#

How afk is crafting? been looking to get into some DoH stuff after returning as I've only messed around with DoL before, but I play other games and it seems like crafting in ff14 has some element of afk'ness to it, would be nice to be able to do it while playing other stuff.

Worth attending if you're at least a level 50.

#
How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

jade quartz
#

A job is simply an upgrade to your base class at level 30

quick question not played in a long time and just started a Gunbreaker, which zones/areas do i hit fates in while waiting queues? next MSQ is at 63 with susano so can't progress yet

remote lintel
#

@fading helm you need to make the mount hotbar shared

#

you dont make all hotbars shared

obsidian patio
fading helm
#

how do i do that

obsidian patio
#

Though since you’re a tank you’re probably better off just doing sirensong sea a couple times to hit 63

remote lintel
#

which hotbar number is your mount hotbar?

#

tick that for shared

fading helm
#

3 but when i tick it nothing happens

#

do i have to be in the class that has the hotbar

remote lintel
#

no

#

just leave it ticked

#

unshare the hotbars that you use for your classes

naive ledge
obsidian patio
#

...I highly recommend you get to that item level, since that’s what the story expects you to be at.

#

So if you’re lower than that and past the sirensong sea, you should get it up.

@fading helm does it still change when you switch classes

now its gone when i change classes

Even monk is just two 1-2-3 combos for a very long time

lean iris
#

i always wonder why FFXIV early game feels so...archaic ? i don't think other modern mmos suffer as heavily as ff does in terms of early game rotation

glossy flare
#

They are all good and all of them have at least an okay complexity at 80

remote lintel
#

because ff14 is a final fantasy game

#

so it will play like one

#

It's just that XIV tries to be very noob friendly

I didn't exactly know where to ask this so I'll try asking here, has anyone ever sent a direct support ticket to SE about a game issue and if yes how long did it take?

I’m not certain. Game related issues, I’ve never had to submit a ticket. The last time I had to report a problematic player, it took about an hour for a GM to contact me about it. Gameplay related reports are foreign to me unfortunately.

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ

'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'

As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.

'How much is the bonus experience?'

You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.

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.

GC Seals are spent at your grand company for promotions or on various items and equipment

Get a promotion

outer star
#

Be sure you clear your hunting log for that GC as well

#

It's required for some promotions

obsidian patio
#

It’s best to focus seals on promotions until you reach at least Sergeant Second Class, as that unlocks the ability to turn in non-white gear for GC seals, which is a massive boost in seal income from doing dungeons past level 50.

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.

Grand Company FAQ

Which Grand Company should I choose?

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:

Grand Company Gear

How do I get Grand Company Seals?

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.

Greetings, not sure where to ask this, it's more of a tech issue.

My friend, who is originally from EU, but is currently living in Korea for the next year, wants to keep playing FFXIV on the EU servers because that's where I am, but she can't. She apparently has to use a VPN to be able to play on NA / EU but even with a VPN, EU servers just infinitely load. However, NA servers load fine.

Anyone has any idea what could be causing this? Is it even possible to play on EU while living in Korea?

Guys how do I increase mount speed in different areas? Just by doing the MSQ?

faint flare
#

Yes

proper patio
#

sweet! thanks

agile laurel
#

you can also get riding maps for some zones, but for the effort they require they're pretty pointless as they don't affect flying

warm snow
proper patio
#

I'm playing on a trial, just started like 1 week ago, don't rly know what a riding map is

green grail
#

an item that increases your mount speed

#

that's it

glossy flare
#

flying is always at max speed however

#

so unlocking flying is more efficient

proper patio
#

I think I'm pretty close to unlocking flying mounts yea, I'm at level 42

warm snow
#

Not til 50

glossy flare
#

all mounts are flying mounts btw

#

there is no distinction

#

you rather unlock the ability to fly in a given zone

barren granite
#

oh .. hmm i need to do thaat one then. Sick of running around

proper patio
#

isn't the chocobo considered a mount too?

glossy flare
#

it is

#

and it can fly

proper patio
#

o:

#

you can just fly with it after you unlock flying?

#

awesome

glossy flare
#

flying wasn't introduced until Heavensward so ARR mounts sometimes don't really look like they should be flying

#

but all mounts can nonetheless

#

after HW they usually made sure it looks okay when something flies with additional animations or whatever

flat yew
#

to be fair the ufiti doesn't look like it should be flying either haha

warm snow
#

Laughs in albino karakul

faint flare
#

Flying is a per zone unlock bases

glossy flare
#

yeah, unlocking flying at 50 just means you can then fly in all ARR zones

#

any other zone needs aether currents

warm snow
#

Once you hit hw you have to put in some effort to fly in the new areas but its pretty easy

glossy flare
#

yeah, not much effort tbh, it's okay

warm snow
#

A few bluequest and a bit of exploration

proper patio
#

Also I was wondering, when is it a good time to switch from trial to the complete edition, after finishing ARR I guess?

glossy flare
#

trial includes HW

#

so at 60

warm snow
#

If by complete edition you mean you're also gonna buy shadowbringers then yeah around level 60

flat yew
#

you'll probably hit lvl 60 before finishing HW though

glossy flare
#

you will most likely hit 60 before you finish HW

#

so then you gotta decide if you want to buy now to not waste xp

warm snow
#

But your level cap won't increase without expansions

glossy flare
#

or maybe switch to a different job for the time being

proper patio
#

Figured I should buy all the expansions after I kinda finish what trial has to offer so I don't waste the subscribition doing the things that I could do with a trial version of the game

glossy flare
#

Sure, if you can live with the trial restrictions

warm snow
#

I doubt you'll get much of the extreme content done while on trial

glossy flare
#

that's the only real drawback you have right now

Msq

barren granite

its gated

#

ok

glossy flare

it's part of ishgard which will unlock at the start of HW

#

the very start actually, the first quest of HW

warm snow

EVERYTHING past your 1-30 class quests is locked behind msq

barren granite

ok guess i have a ways to go, still on Castrum

Soon to enter the seventh umbral slog

it is a fun quest though, so im enjying it thus far

frank shore
#

Is the queue for potd on floors like 51-60 faster? Currently struggling to find players for 31-40

glossy flare
#

it is, yes

#

it's the range people run for leveling so it's the most popular queue

thought so, hope ill get there soon ^^

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.

glossy flare
#

maybe pick one where you enjoy the role

#

Conjurer is a healer, Gladiator and Marauder are tanks, Arcanist can become a healer at lvl 30

#

all the others are dps

storm pollen
#

I wanted to try summoner but i didn't saw it as a class.

faint flare
#

Arcanist

glossy flare
#

Arcanist becomes Summoner at lvl 30

#

all the base classes evolve to a job at 30

#

!faq job

zinc orbitBOT
#
How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

storm pollen
#

Can i get the class at lvl 30 as free trial too ?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

You can go to 60

warm snow
#

Free trial goes to 60

#

Includes the first expansion

#

As the meme goes

mint jasper
#

am back

#

so on high desktop i assume highest graphics

#

i got 1742 score

#

performance slightly low

storm pollen
#

Oke, ty for the help

mint jasper
#

soo does high desktop means highest specs right?

glossy flare
#

it means high not highest

#

but it sounds like you should be fine

mint jasper
#

oh yeh that was really helpful

#

my pc can barely stuck at 9fps on lowest of lows XD

#

but this is like 24 fps on high

glossy flare
#

just be aware that a benchmark can not catch all eventualities so you may still run into situations where you struggle

#

and your result is still not great, maybe think about getting something better in the long run

#

but for now you should be good

mint jasper
#

yeh am thinking of getting something better

#

but at least now i know what am dealing with

#

thanks a ton

warm snow

Should probably pass on those for now

whats the best way to make some money with your retainers?

potent lava
#

so im currently learning rdm
I think the general flow is: alternating verthunder and veraero, using verstone/fire's quick cast to create dualcast loop, and then go in with your 3 strike melee
what I dont get is where does jolt factor in?

faint flare
#

Jolt is your shortcast spell to trigger dualcast for thunder/aero

#

When you have no procs

glossy flare
#

you never hardcast veraero/verthunder

tropic flame
faint flare
#

You never hardcast thunder or aero outside of openers

glossy flare
#

you wanna use jolt to get the dualcast proc if you have no other option

potent lava
#

oh i see

faint flare
#

You're doing fuck all for 5 seconds

potent lava
#

does verfire/stone still proc from a dualcast?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Because you're using the spell

glossy flare
#

any spell procs dualcast

#

so verfire/verstone are your short spell alternatives for jolt

#

and they are to be preferred since they deal more dmg

#

and generate mana too

potent lava
#

ahh I've been mixing dualcast and fire/stone proc, that's where I was confused
but the rest I'm most right on, yeah?

glossy flare
#

yup

#

alternate between black and white mana spells so you generate mana as equal as possible

#

go for the melee combo at 80/80 mana

#

repeat

#

that's the basic rdm loop

potent lava
#

alright thanks

5.4 BLM BiS

Maximize ilv first. We will put put some good example sets here.
If you want to min-max your own sets, or got some raid buffs in your group, make a copy of the sheet and adjust it accordingly.

Speed BiS
Crit BiS
SMN/RDM-Friendly BiS (can use the SMN/RDM BiS w/o swapping melds)

Pros/Cons of the BiS:
"Speed BiS": higher base output, but less variance. Has some volatility in terms of MP ticks in UI
"Crit BiS": slightly lower base output, but higher variance. Does not run into similar MP tick issues as with the SpS set

obsidian patio
#

BLM can basically work at any spell speed

pastel nexus
#

i see, i think ill go for the crit melding
