mystic tapir
#

If I get to lvl 50 as a SCH can I get the Samurai Job?

modest igloo
#

if you own Stormblood yes

mystic tapir
#

ok... can I get Stormblood as a SCH?

pine onyx
#

Of course

modest igloo
#

Stormblood is an expansion

pine onyx
#

It's just an expansion

mystic tapir
#

oh.. wait... it's an Expansion

#

I just got back in from 5 years

pine onyx
#

The second one

mystic tapir
#

i only have up to ARR

modest igloo
#

Heavensward is included in the base game, but to get SAM you would need to buy Shadowbringers

#

since it comes with Stormblood now

mystic tapir
#

i see

pulsar escarp
#

if you only have arr can't you just buy complete ver

mystic tapir
#

gotta blow the dust outta my wallet and see how much I have

hearty mango
#

You only have to own stormblood, you don’t have to actually get into stormblood content

mystic tapir
#

so I can buy Shadowbringers and it will come with Stormblood

#

k

pulsar escarp
#

wait no

#

isn't the shadowbringers expansion just for people who already have everything?

faint flare
#

No

pulsar escarp
#

if you onmly have arr surely you should get the complete edition?

faint flare
#

No

pulsar escarp
#

wow huh

hearty mango
#

Shb includes sb and arr includes hw iirc

faint flare
#

Can't use complete if you already own the Base game

mystic tapir
#

reading the details on squares page

pulsar escarp
#

ahhh

#

arr includes hw now right

jade quartz
#

Starter Edition includes both ARR and HW

pulsar escarp
void venture
#

determination or critical hit better on paladin?

jade quartz
#

Shadowbringers Standard Edition includes Stormblood and Shadowbringers

agile laurel
#

heard a comment about Rescue effectively cancelling out limit break anim lock. That true?

mystic tapir
#

$40 CDN is not too badk

high otter
#

How do I level my chocobo? Just kill everything on sight on lvl 80?

whole wasp
#

super obvious with WHM and SCH Lb animations

open coral
agile laurel
jade quartz
whole wasp
jade quartz
#

I wouldn’t recommend grinding beyond getting the weekly challenge log exp though

jade quartz
#

Chocobo rank exp is very slow

gritty oracle
#

Just trying to do my ARR relic and I'm sorry WHAT. Did I miss a step here?

open coral
jade quartz
#

But challenge log is a good chunk

high otter
open coral
jade quartz
gritty oracle
jade quartz
#

I’ve been playing this game for six years using the chocobo casually and only recently got to rank 20

high otter
#

there is no way it's that slow

#

it just can't be

open coral
#

I've had similar results.

faint flare
#

It is

open coral
#

It really is that slow.

willow briar
#

Do you guys have more than one character? A main and one for crafting? Is having an item mule a thing?

faint flare
#

No

#

You can't easily trade items between alts

open coral
#

The first 10 levels with your chocobo are easy, but 10-20 takes a LONG time.

whole wasp
#

there is no need to get more than one character because everything can be done on 1 character

#

item mules are also generally not required unless you are crafting for your whole FC or something

high otter
gritty oracle
open coral
gritty oracle
# high otter so I guess having a stable is crucial

Tbh there's no reason to try and powerlevel it unless you need the bardings right now. I recommend going after your shared fates with your choco out, and/or treasure farming. If you feed it a certain number of curiel root, it'll also get XP affinity afaik, so it gains more XP.

high otter
#

I want dragoon barding asap, not really interested in other 2

open coral
#

Just have your chocobo out all the time.

high otter
#

Wait, maxing out 1 role doesn't require lvl 20, right?

#

or does it

open coral
#

No

#

Only level 10 for 1 role

high otter
#

I'm happy then, need to powerlevel to lvl 10

open coral
#

Not sure what dragoon barding you're referring to though.

high otter
#

google says you get dragoon barding if you max out attacker role

jade quartz
#

You get a barding for maxing each chocobo skill tree

#

Paladin, dragoon and white mage themed

willow briar
faint flare
#

Yes

#

New game plus

gritty oracle
#

New Game+

open coral
#

Oh. Hm. For some reason I thought the attacker tree gave you the BLM barding.

pine onyx
#

What's the ilvl of lost antiquity gear?

high otter
#

okay lads, how do you suggest to level up from lvl 5 to lvl 10 asap?

pine onyx
#

And golden antiquity

open coral
#

Just keep using your chocobo.

gritty oracle
faint flare
#

Challenge logs weekly and just keep it out while doing stuff

open coral
#

"ASAP" isn't really a thing with chocobo leveling.

#

There's no fast way.

high otter
gritty oracle
#

wait you still mean chocobo

modest igloo
#

man i wish, that would make the chocobo actually useful

faint flare
#

And not completely forget they exist

gritty oracle
#

no I just forgot the topic at hand. I leveled mine with my very large FC through frequent map parties. If you don't have access to that kind of stuff, I recommend either starting up a relic (all three overworld ones have fate frinds) or go after your shared fates.

jade quartz
#

There is no faster way

high otter
open coral
#

You're just going to have to accept that it's going to take some time.

jade quartz
#

Then knuckle down

high otter
#

I'm aiming for Flamesworn title, which requires 200 Immortal Flames levequests. Guess it's ideal to level chocobo in the same time

shadow wasp
#

Can you switch classes, (ie: miner) while waiting for the queue to pop?

faint flare
#

Yes

shadow wasp
#

Amazing. Thank you!

tribal python
#

But u need to switch back once the queue pops!

#

At least... I had to todsay

shadow wasp
#

Ah okay! That makes sense!

tribal python
#

Haha

shadow wasp
#

haha thank you!!

open coral
#

The queue won't let you accept if you're on a different job than you queued with.

glossy flare
#

yeah, can only enter the instance with whatever job you queued for

storm pollen
#

Hello.
I wanted to know what should i choose on optional rewards as a beginner.
My current options are clothes/armor or something called allagan bronze piece.

open coral
#

If you need the armor, then get that. Otherwise you can pick up the bronze piece which can be sold for gil to NPC vendors.

faint flare
#

Take gear if it's an upgrade

jade quartz
#

Get the gear if it’s an upgrade to what you currently have. Make sure you get the right gear for your class

#

Allagan pieces are just essentially gil vouchers yeah

lapis lagoon
#

the money sack is just a small amount of gil. In general it's irrelevant what you pick here, because they become worthless very quickly

open coral
#

Buying things, teleports, repairs.

mystic tapir
#

other note: while I was researaching SAM, some sites say you need to be Disciple of War 50

faint flare
#

Being lazy

jade quartz
#

When you’re leveling and doing story, gil will chiefly be used just for teleports

leaden ginkgo
#

what is that ball? I wonder I can pick it?

fresh lodge
#

Basically has to be a combat job

faint flare
#

Sightseeing log

jade quartz
warm snow
mystic tapir
leaden ginkgo
#

what is it for? how to pick?

open coral
#

It logs the point and you get a little xp.

jade quartz
#

Stand there and /lookout to unlock a description in your sightseeing log and get a bit of exp

#

Sometimes it’s a different emote

open coral
#

/pray is the other common emote

leaden ginkgo
#

I see

open coral
#

However there are a couple that need like, /psych or /cheer

leaden ginkgo
#

it say 006 complete but got nothing

jade quartz
#

There are some that need /sit /salute etc

#

You got exp and an entry added to your sightseeing log

open coral
jade quartz
#

Yeah naturally

leaden ginkgo
#

😆 oh what a wasted I did

open coral
#

It's not a huge amount of xp

leaden ginkgo
#

thx for info btw my blu cant get Acorn Bomb spell, I am killing Treant Sapling (the big tree) but still cant get. in google, they saiy like 92% but I feel like 0.1% xD I still cant get that one

open coral
#

Are you seeing it cast Acorn Bomb?

leaden ginkgo
#

to get the spell

jade quartz
#

You must see the spell finish casting before killing the enemy

open coral
#

Yes, you need to see it cast Acorn Bomb completely.

leaden ginkgo
#

oh?

open coral
#

You can't interrupt it, or kill the enemy before the spell finishes casting.

leaden ginkgo
#

I didnt know it...I gonna to try. tysm

gritty oracle
open coral
#

That applies to all spells for BLU, btw.

gritty oracle
#

common misconception

leaden ginkgo
#

copy

#

where are the mobs all i can see is water

high otter
#

How do I travel to the Goblet? It forces me to pick a ward, but there is no "enter" button

faint flare
#

Select one then press the button at the bottom to enter

high otter
#

thanks, I thought I have to pick specific residence

leaden ginkgo
jade quartz
leaden ginkgo
#

and tiny mandagaor

#

and other mobs

jade quartz
#

The whole southern section of the map is Summerford

#

It’s not labeling the water

#

Goblin fishers should be over near the river

#

Mandragora are scattered about

twilit arch
#

has images of the area where the hunting log mobs are located

velvet orbit
#

played this game back in the day and im considering playing it again. I never got to the end game tho, is it challenging?

leaden ginkgo
#

thanks

jade quartz
#

Yes there is challenging content at endgame

#

Chiefly savage raids

exotic flume
#

Is there a desirable way to train gathering professions?

jade quartz
#

Plus the slightly easier extreme trials, and the much harder ultimate fights which there are only a few of

#

The fastest method to level gathering classes is leves in addition to daily Grand Company turn-ins

verbal prism
#

Urgh

jade quartz
#

There’s also grinding in the Diadem as an option

velvet orbit
#

ehhh doenst sound like there is much content tbh for the end game

jade quartz
#

There’s a good amount of content

faint flare
#

There's multiple of them

verbal prism
#

Short Question: Is there a way to download the whole Client without having an active Subscribtion?

modest igloo
#

There’s 12 savage fights, each one taking hours to beat

jade quartz
modest igloo
#

The Ultimates range from 50-100 of your good

jade quartz
#

And ultimate fights are usually 100ish hours of prog

modest igloo
#

There’s a total of... 49 savage fights in the game?

jade quartz
#

If you really wanna count T3...

modest igloo
#

Add in alliance raids and BSF and it’s about 500+ hours of pure endgame content

jade quartz
#

Though doing old ones level synced is a pretty niche pastime

modest igloo
#

Blue mage is why I count them

#

Oh and eureka

high otter
modest igloo
#

You can but it doesn’t give much xp

honest anvil
#

Power leveling chocobo is not good for one’s sanity ...

open coral
tulip atlas
#

are there level 9 levequest?

honest anvil
#

It’s very, very slow ... it will take yearS

open coral
#

But if you switch to a lower level job that's appropriately leveled for the leves, then it will work.

high otter
open coral
tulip atlas
#

oh, im stuck on level 9 rouge and my hunting log i need to be level 10

honest anvil
#

And in that same time your chocobo might gain ... half a level ...

tulip atlas
#

my main quest is level 15

modest igloo
#

Yep gotta farm fates until lvl 10

high otter
twilit arch
#

I wouldn't do leves to level your chocobo

#

just do fates with it out

wary eagle
#

accidentally did beast tribe quest on CUL but want to turn in with alt class. if i didnt turn in the quests yet, can i abandon and retake with another class or does that waste my allowances?

high otter
#

someone said that level sync in lower level FATEs work, I guess this is the way. I have level 5 chocobo rn, and it was only summoned few times during relic weapon grind

twilit arch
#

you'll get it back, with exception of the ixali delivery daily

#

your chocobo's rank =/= level

#

they are whatever level you are

#

so if you're 35, its level 35

high otter
#

I'm talking about rank, yes. It's rank 5

twilit arch
#

so do stuff that's the same level as you to level it

high otter
#

or fates, yes?

twilit arch
#

if you're looking to double dip by leveling up a combat job as well, don't do leves because they're the bottom of the barrel for exp. fates are better

#

you can find fates that are your level

high otter
#

I know. My friend is going to farm memories for the relic too, I'm thinking to help him and level chocobo in the same time

modest igloo
#

Heck, you can even triple dip with relics or unlocking the ShB fate levels

twilit arch
#

main reason to find low level fates to do is if you're wanting to get the challenge log done quickly

high otter
#

where can I find chocobo challenges in the log

faint flare
#

Under companion

jade quartz
#

Battle

faint flare
#

In battle

twilit arch
#

its got 2. defeat 20 enemies, and defeat 100

high otter
#

ah, it's done already, guess I did it while grinding fates for relic

void venture
#

im a paladin can i use cover on other tanks

#

i tried but i cannot

jade quartz
#

Yes you can

faint flare
#

They need to be in range and within your party

void venture
#

oh within party

#

ohhh

faint flare
#

Cover is barely used

void venture
#

sheltron is more used?

modest igloo
#

yeah

faint flare
#

Yes, it's your short defensive Cooldown

lapis lagoon
#

battlecraft leves are actually good exp. you can usually get about 4x the stated amount of exp by being competent and completing quickly

jade quartz
#

Sheltron is one of your most important buttons

twilit arch
#

they're really not that good for exp

faint flare
#

There's barely any reason to use cover outside of saving someone from being stupid as shit

twilit arch
#

especially when compared to dungeons or palace of the dead

modest igloo
exotic flume
#

Command Error!

Command is missing argument: item: str. If you need help please use !help <command>

twilit arch
#

they also stop being a thing after 60

jade quartz
#

Doing FATEs of similar level is outright faster

lapis lagoon
#

Right - for 1-15 to unlock dungeons, i found leves better than FATEs

jade quartz
#

And doing dungeons or PotD is much faster than that.

#

For 1–15 you should just do challenge log

modest igloo
#

for 1-15 they are decent after the hunting log

twilit arch
#

1-15 you can pretty much do w/e and it'll be fine but after that leves really are not that good

jade quartz
#

Hunting log rather

lapis lagoon
#

even with brand-new-ring and armory bonus, hunting log alone is not sufficient, you still need 4-5 levels worth of exp

open coral
#

Levequests are more efficient, but not necessarily better than FATEs for 1-15.

#

Simply by virtue of being personal completion and localized to a small area.

#

Whereas you have to go looking for FATEs/wait for them to spawn.

modest igloo
#

i only need 8-10 and 14-15

lapis lagoon
#

maybe if you find other people doing the same FATEs, but I was always alone and ended up taking 3x longer than a leve, giving 1.2x the exp of a leve

open coral
#

As a side note, you can do higher level hunt log objectives. As long as you can kill the enemies you'll still get credit.

#

So if you're level 5, you can still do the level 6-10 hunt objectives.

scarlet arrow
#

your job quests at levels 1, 5 and 10 also give you a good chunk of exp

lapis lagoon
#

yup - completed second hunting log by lv 13. still needed exp 🙂

twilit arch
#

either way though, leves really aren't ideal to be doing after a certain point

#

and for chocobo leveling they're not really worth either

#

because you're going to have to be constantly going back to the levemete to pick up a new one

open coral
#

After level 15, levels definitely drop off in efficacy massively.

scarlet arrow
#

grand company leves can be useful for getting seals before you unlock expert delivery

open coral
#

You can pick up four at a time.

#

Which is what makes them efficient.

bold narwhal
#

is there a reason they dont make early access a week so that those of us that want to play the new classes in endwalker can get em to 80 b4 release day can?

faint flare
#

Early access is EVERYTHING

open coral
faint flare
#

It basic is the expansion launch

bold narwhal
#

how?

open coral
#

Dungeons.

#

Roulettes

faint flare
#

Bojza or dungeons

open coral
#

The same way you'd level any other class.

faint flare
#

With roulette and pixes

#

Oh and prepping a khloe journal now

#

That's half a level

leaden ginkgo
#

Some people asking in shout about invite for s rank or whatever what ar these

faint flare
#

Hunt mobs

open coral
#

S rank hunt enemies.

twilit arch
#

4 days is honestly more than enough time to get to 80. keep in mind the endwalker jobs are going to start at 70

#

so its only 10 levels

open coral
#

They're basically raid bosses in the overworld.

exotic flume
#

Gys, i'm worried that i mithg tbe missing oportunities in training gathering profs like botanist and miner, should those be trained a lot later or should i try training them along with my combat? Since my combat won't allow to do things like prospect i'm not sure if its worth trying to do both.

scarlet arrow
#

early access will also be a FANTASTIC time to level a tank as roulettes will be flooded with Sages and Reapers

leaden ginkgo
#

its like world boss ?

faint flare
open coral
faint flare
#

You're not missing anything

open coral
leaden ginkgo
#

how do i know if an s rank respawn

faint flare
#

Plus you unlock more levelling methods like ishgard restoration

scarlet arrow
#

gathering (and crafting) are entirely optional facets of the game that can be started at any time

open coral
bold narwhal
#

i know kael its just dps dont exactlly get short wait times unlike healers and tanks..

exotic flume
open coral
#

Some of the really big ones even change the weather in the zone to a special weather.

twilit arch
#

thats why you have bozja, pixies, hunt bills, fates

#

you have plenty of ways to level dps without dungeons

exotic flume
#

So even if i can go back, is it worth it to try saving time by trying to gather wherever i go?

open coral
faint flare
#

You won't even see nodes when not on a gathering job

scarlet arrow
versed bison
#

Had a question for y'all. What part of the game did it become fun for you all ?

open coral
#

It was always fun to me.

versed bison
#

I see. Because I haven't reached the combat sections yet so I'm just got tired

modest igloo
#

i enjoy the story of a game a lot so it held my interest for most of the game

modest igloo
#

combat itself got more varied around lvl 50

#

but i dont mind simple combat too much

versed bison
open coral
#

Level 2 is like, 5 minutes into the game, tops.

#

You've barely played.

versed bison
exotic flume
#

Nah, 10 mins, remember cutscenes 😛

open coral
#

You get level 2 just by finishing the first quest, there's only one cutscene before that, and it's the opening one.

leaden ginkgo
#

retainer (who are gathering) does need Accessories ? I wonder Accessories are giving GP but I wonder do they need it?

open coral
#

And it's about 5 minutes long.

native goblet
#

I remember the part being talking for about 15 mins

twilit arch
#

technically don't need it but giving them acessories doesn't necessarily hurt either

modest igloo
#

they only need gathering stat

twilit arch
#

as you can meld gathering onto the accessories

open coral
#

Accessories add to your retainer's ilevel, which (up to a point) improves the items they can bring back.

leaden ginkgo
#

hmm

modest igloo
#

isnt that for combat not gathering?

jade quartz
#

Gathering retainers only care about gathering stat.

#

ilvl is for combat retainers.

how do i uninstall the launcher version of the game and not the steam version

normal prairie

I guess paladin/AST

I gotta figure out that I guess

vital ruin
#

Does lord and lady of crowns proc divination

smoky girder
#

I don't have anything that looks like that

faint flare
#

They give no seals

vital ruin
#

Then why use it

faint flare
#

That's their point

twilit arch
#

you use minor arcana when you already have the seals you want

faint flare
#

So you don't mess up your seals

twilit arch
#

or you get unlucky and would have a dupe seal

faint flare
#

They also give a slightly stronger buff

vital ruin
#

What seals

twilit arch
#

the divination seals

faint flare
#

Seals for divination

vital ruin
#

Wait

faint flare
#

Your job gauge icons

faint flare
#

Arcanist pet

leaden ginkgo
#

CUTE

twilit arch
#

you need to be an arcanist/summoner for it

vital ruin
#

So if I have the seals and use div
And it's in cooldown do I use lord and lady

leaden ginkgo
#

iam a summoner

faint flare
#

After getting your 3 seals back

#

Yes

faint flare
twilit arch
#

for summoner, you need to be lvl 50 to unlock egi glam

vital ruin
#

So use lord and lady only when div is in cooldown?

twilit arch
#

then you can glamour your egi's back to carbuncles

faint flare
#

You use hem WHEN YOU GOT YOUR 3 SEALS

leaden ginkgo
faint flare
#

Yes

vital ruin
#

Then when the fuck do I use lord and lady

faint flare
#

It turns ifirit. Garuda and Titan back into carbuncles

twilit arch
#

look

faint flare
leaden ginkgo
#

my summoner is 50 above

faint flare
#

That's when

twilit arch
#

if you have 3 seals, use you lord/lady to not mess up your prepped seals

#

or if you have 1/2 seals and it'd give you a dupe seal (because rng hates you), you use lord/lady

faint flare
leaden ginkgo
twilit arch
#

you use lord/lady when you don't want to fuck with the seals you already have

vital ruin
#

I'll just look it up I'm more confused

faint flare
#

The seals are the icons above the card

#

That you need 3 of for divination

vital ruin
#

Ik that

faint flare
#

3 different ones let's divination be full strength

vital ruin
#

Ohh

twilit arch
#

in this instance you wold want to use minor arcana

#

you have 3 seals already

#

and using balance as is, would mess up your seals

vital ruin
#

Ohh

#

So I use lord and lady

faint flare
#

Once you have all 3 different seals, you minor arcana the rest

twilit arch
#

if for instance you have 2 seals (moon and star), you could also use minor arcana if you got unlucky and didn't reroll for a sun seal

faint flare
#

Basically Minor arcana any duplicate seals

vital ruin
#

I c

#

So basically I'm looking for is 3 different seals

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Otherwise divination is weakwr

vital ruin
#

Gotcha

harsh kraken
#

Does uh anyone know how to fix this? This is my first time trying to play and I can't figure it out

open coral
#

Are you trying to play the trial or the full version of the game?

harsh kraken
#

Just the trial

open coral
#

Are you using the trial launcher?

harsh kraken
#

I think I paid for the full game though..

#

I bought it on steam....

open coral
#

Did you register the game to your account?

harsh kraken
#

Mhm

open coral
#

And are you launching the game through steam?

harsh kraken
#

Correct

#

I originally tried the trial thing on the website but it didn't seem to work, so I just bought the game

open coral
#

Did you buy the Starter Edition, the Complete Edition, or just Shadowbringers?

harsh kraken
#

Starter

open coral
#

Have you tried restarting Steam?

harsh kraken
#

I'll try that now

sick dagger
#

Are they not updating the patch notes for 5.55? Don't they usually do that on Fridays?

open coral
#

They'll update the patch notes on Monday

twilit arch
#

5.55 will have its own set of patch notes, and .xx patches don't have prelmins generally

#

prelims are for the most part reserved for the major patches

harsh kraken
#

Alright the same issue is still occuring

open coral
#

Unfortunately that's as far as my troubleshooting abilities go.

harsh kraken
#

aaaaaaa

#

should I just try buying the subscription and hope that works

is there an easy way to tell which blue quests with a "+" are actually worth doing?

crimson crystal
#

steam does refunds maybe?

jade willow
#

is there a benefit to logging out in an inn bed rather than just next to a city crystal?

viscid fossil
#

Would ask for refund, my rule for buying games, i always buy standalone outside Origin/Steam/Ubi as possible.

harsh kraken
#

Lets see if I have refunds left

open coral
#

You get a little animation of waking up if you log out in an inn room, but that's it.

jade willow
#

thx

viscid fossil
#

3rd party distribution platforms are just another layer of issue to deal with.

if its floor 1-50, they can take a bit since most people queue for 51-60

So i coudl eventually get a party with no tank or no healers? Dang.

yes

potd is designed to be clearable with any team comp

No

ah

open coral
#

They usually only do them during long content droughts or for special events

harsh kraken
#

well I'm assuming that's a bit of money gone

open coral
#

Yeah

#

Steam doesn't usually give refunds for XIV

harsh kraken
#

Well that's probably the first mistake of many then

open coral
#

On the plus side, having purchased the PC version, you can take advantage of SE store sales in the future, which happen far more frequently than sales on Steam.

harsh kraken
#

ah that sounds cool

open coral
#

Just make sure that when buying expansions you're buying them from the SE store and not trying to buy them off Steam.

harsh kraken
#

Alright thank you

leaden ginkgo
#

from 10 to 15 i should do PotD ?

open coral
#

You can

#

You don't have to.

leaden ginkgo
#

fastest way.

scarlet arrow
#

hunting log and job quests first IMO

leaden ginkgo
#

i cant solo it i .

open coral
#

Fastest will depend largely on queue times for PotD

#

If you haven't done any PotD at all, then doing hunt logs, job quests, and levequests are going to be faster.

#

Because PotD queues for anything aside from floor 51-60 are going to be super long.

leaden ginkgo
#

ok thanks

does this happen often?

Sadly, yes. That seems to be a common issue for new players.

#

Make sure that your Internet Explorer is up to date. That can cause problems.

harsh kraken
#

So it's fixable right?

#

It all is

open coral
#

There's some workarounds.

#

One is trying a VPN. Another is to use the unofficial launcher, which I believe is XIVLauncher.

Otherwise, get the Ironworks and start working on Shire after.

Is there a reason for getting the client from Steam vs from the website? In WoWS there where different packages/deals availiable for the Steam version for example.

open coral
simple pine
#

same here, if you buy on steam you are locked into steam for sub/expansions, but can have regional deals vs the outside steam store

open coral
#

You get the same game regardless of whether you buy the Steam or the SE store version though.

#

No different packages, but Steam has less frequent sales.

twilit arch
#

steam also lets you use steam wallet to pay for sub/optional items

normal prairie
#

It’s like the same 4-5 fc’s😭

fossil zodiac
#

Rgr, I assume the SE accepts PayPal aswell?

open coral
twilit arch

sort of

#

you can use paypal to buy crysta to pay for your sub/optional items

but can't use it to pay for things directly, like a credit/debit card

But the price ends up the same, right?

Steam has some weird quirks sometimes.

I never used the Steam version, so my information is based entirely on other resolutions to similar issues.

leaden ginkgo
#

is it worth doing roulettes when youre not adventurer in need

open coral
#

Yes

#

Your first roulette of each type per day offers a significant bonus of xp

#

The AIN bonus is minimal by comparison.

#

It's also not worth doing roulettes that you've already completed for the day just for the AIN bonus.

leaden ginkgo

can you queue up as 3

open coral
#

Yes

#

As long as you meet the party composition requirements

grizzled wasp
#

i'm sitting on this quest for months, how do i do it?

open coral
#

So you can't queue as 3 dps, or with multiple tanks or healers unless you're doing 8-man content.

grizzled wasp

where do i get that rod

crystal bluff

You craft it
Or buy it

open coral
grizzled wasp

okay i'll just buy it

exactly that name?

crystal bluff

Then you put a materia in it

open coral

Yes

grizzled wasp

or what do i have to do with it?

ahh

so i buy the base weapon

and put stuff on it

Exactly that name, and meld the specific materia or buy it with those materia already melded.

If you cancelled your service account, it can't be recovered.

If you're using an email address that you know has an active account, it may have been hacked, and you may need to contact SE support.

you can actually reactive a service acct

its the square enix account itself that can't be recovered

could someone explain the naming system for raids? like what does e11s mean?

#

Name of raid, floor number. Difficulty

#

So Eden, floor 11, savage

twilit arch
#

Eden’s Promise Anamorphosis (Savage) being its proper name in-game

modest igloo
#

many names in the game can be hard to spell or pornounce so we shorten it

open ember
#

Every expansion there is 3 tiers, 12 raids

#

We are currently on the 3rd tier of the Edens

#

well, and coils, but its funky

open ember

So since
Eden's Promise Anamorphosis (Savage) is so damn long we just shorten it

#

Same for Omega and Alexander

what's the requirement for the upcoming bozja content?

and is it better to just watch the youtube videos for the questline or should i replay it?

It wouldn't matter

i was too burned out so i had just skipped it

Its optional story

you could watch a summary video

but you get to make some important choice right?

None of the side stories are required for EW

though I wouldn't be remotely suprised if the Weapon series trials were part of the story or mentioned in EW but hey, I wouldn't know

There were a few side stories that were recommended by the devs during fan fest. I don't remember what they were off the top of my head.

or can I use it at like 500 MP

you still need to get to lvl 50

if you didnt buy the job skip

so now you have to grind

No, if he bought the skip the HW jobs should be unlocked.

You still have to be 50 to unlock them

remote lintel

does it not require lvl 50 to start the quest?

twilit arch

I thought it only required 50 because you technically need to be 50 to get there.

no

the unlocks themselves also require lvl 50

they are there, you still need to be lvl 50 tho even if you buy the skip

is there any bonus item drops in a party in the overworld? example if im farming dodos for their items, will i get more drops in a party of 2 instead of doing it alone?

have you done your role quests?

the lvl 80 quest requires you to have completed shadowbringers, and your role quest. also they're yellow, not blue

Oh yeah, you do need MSQ completed, it's just that you also need lv 50 to complete MSQ

young echo
#

twilit arch

Are arcanist, summoner and scholar tied together somehow? I seem to be getting xp for all 3 at the same time?

twilit arch
#

ye

faint flare
#

I haven't done any of my 80 quests and none of mine show up

twilit arch
#

arcanist is the base class for summoner and scholar

faint flare
#

So 🤷‍♂️

ripe hound
young echo
#

Wrong Assumption though :p

modest igloo
#

expac jobs dont even have classes

heavy wadi
#

they don't have base classes

#

I want to use Xivanalysis but they need FFXIVlogs for that, can I disable people reading my log? I mean I am using it to learn my class properly and don't need user to judge me when searching my Character name g_cry

faint flare
#

They're gonna judge you more if you're hidden

Retainer Guide

What is a retainer?
A retainer is a private NPC that will act as a personal bank for the player, holding up to 175 different items, that can be summoned to any of the Summoning Bells around the world. Retainers also act as your means to sell on the Market Board.

How to unlock a retainer
First, you must complete the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn then go to speak to any of the Retainer Vocates located in the market district of any of the major cities.

What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)

ripe hound
#

I know it's wrong, but I definitely feel someone is sus if they don't even have an account on FFlogs

ripe hound
#

If Private don't work, try Unlisted

leaden ginkgo
#

Oh that's wonderful thank you!

#

Will the crown of the immaculate likely get crafted weapon?

faint flare
#

No cause it has no weapons

#

There's no Base for a crafted version to exist

open ember
#

Crown of the Immaculate has accessories not weapons

#

It has a craftable item but its for the barding and housing item

azure ivy
#

Yeah that makes sense, was debating on keeping the mats seeing how there are no base weapons

modest igloo
#

#

azure ivy

Were there other trials that didn't drop weapons like crown?
