diamond will be .57/8

[grizzled wasp]

where do i get a level 1 bow for my retainer?

do i have to buy one of those expensive ones in the marketplace?

[faint flare]

Vendors in main cities

[grizzled wasp]

ah nice thank you!

[lilac bloom]

Are Crystarium Deliveries time gated in some way?

[faint flare]

They're 1 time only

They're your role quest equiliant

[lilac bloom]

So you could technically do all of them in a single day to get exp and never touch them again?

[faint flare]

They're one time only

For that facet

They can't be repeated

[lilac bloom]

So the Culinarian one, I can do all 5 steps to max him out, then it's done with?

[twilit arch]

yes

[lilac bloom]

So I could then move on the Goldsmith one, do all 5 steps, and that guy is done with?

[twilit arch]

mhm

[lilac bloom]

So I could do all of them, then never go back and be done with it?

[modest igloo]

correct

this is what one-time means

[lilac bloom]

Okay that's what I asked and the answer made it seem otherwise, my bad.

[modest igloo]

its just a job quests

but fancy

[twilit arch]

vinyl said they're one time only

[faint flare]

Much easier

[modest igloo]

WHM is the basic healer

[faint flare]

You have no extra bells or whistles to worry about

Just press button get heal

[livid elm]

hi I cant log in it says my password is incorrect, i changed 2 times already, what is going on ><

[jolly sorrel]

Your password is incorrect 😦

gotta give us more than that to help, I'm afraid.

[weary burrow]

What's a good place to find a mentor to team up like a fc, discord or what?

[faint flare]

For what

[weary burrow]

Just xp

From having a mentor

[faint flare]

That's meaningless as shit

It's only in the overworld, up to level 20

It might as well not even exist

[weary burrow]

Wdym overworld

[faint flare]

Not in dungeons

In the open world

[weary burrow]

Yeah

[modest igloo]

leveling is primarily done in dungeons

[weary burrow]

It's not meaningless then

[modest igloo]

over world doesnt give much in XP outside of MSQ

[weary burrow]

I'm level 7

[faint flare]

It is

Cause all your xp is via story

[weary burrow]

And I'm trying to level a alt

[modest igloo]

leveling 1-20 is super fast

[weary burrow]

My main is level 45

[faint flare]

Do your hunting logs and you'll be up to dungeons

[boreal storm]

Did you not get the lv 30 exp ring?

[weary burrow]

Yes I have everything except for a mentor

[faint flare]

99.9% of people don't even know it exists

Which tells you how shit and meaningless it is

[weary burrow]

Fr but it's a 20% xp right

[cunning sable]

copying from doh and dol channel so I can spread out a bit more uhh

so for fishing, how do I get hammerhead shark quickly?
I know the locations but idk what bait is best and what I should do to get it quickly
except chum of course

[faint flare]

You won't even get xp cause the mentor will guaranteed be a higher level which will stop xp gain

[flat yew]

How do you obtain salvage from the copied factory for the quest "All That Grinds Is not Gloom"? Is it a random drop after finishing the raid or do I have to interact with something special during it?

[faint flare]

If they're too high level

[faint flare]

Solo version of it

[flat yew]

ohh

[faint flare]

Not the actual raid

[weary burrow]

Ok that makes sense

[flat yew]

The one you walked through once alone for the questline?

[faint flare]

Yes

[tidal yarrow]

so my friend has an error message of password incorrect, so he changed password, tried again and it still says password incorrect.
then he, once again, changed password an other time to be 101% sure and it still says incorrect password.
what could be the reason of that?

[jolly sorrel]

That's a really hard question to answer, way too little information.

Caps lock could be on or something?

[azure hound]

What do unidentifiable seeds do?

[tidal yarrow]

nah he's not dumb lol

[livid elm]

hi its me the friend (KFF)

all started when i tried to log in in PC and with different wifi

it blocked the account(used to play on ps4)

so i tried to change password and now that happens

[jolly sorrel]

You can log in on the website just fine?

[livid elm]

nope

[jolly sorrel]

Tried the 'forgot my password' button? I'm sure it exists, didn't check though.

[livid elm]

its weird because if i put my "new password" it just says its incorrect but if i put my old one

that appears

[wintry sable]

So this is the first time i pre-order an expansion in FFXIV, i pre-ordered EW Digital collector edition, yet after redeeming the code i only got a check mark on EW early access but not the collector edition, why?

[faint flare]

Cause collectors isn't even out yet

[twilit arch]

because you have to enter the full game code for collector's

pre-order is just that...a pre-order. its not the collector's or standard edition

[faint flare]

That code comes later

[stuck blade]

I'm lvl 51 and still in realm reborn should i just ignore side content and do story only?

[wintry sable]

Oh so they are two codes instead of one

[twilit arch]

yes

[faint flare]

Do crystal tower and hard mode primals as they're mandatory for story

[wintry sable]

this is dumb

[jolly sorrel]

MSQ unlocks everything, you can do side content if you feel like it, but know you won't progress new stuff for a while

[wintry sable]

Do i get the other code on mail?

[stuck blade]

yeah kind of sick of walking into a new zone and getting bombarded with side quests that dont even move my xp bar

[agile laurel]

how viable is getting to potd 200 in a light party? are all these PFs stating it as an easy aside deluded or is it kinda just that casual?

[faint flare]

They don't want you overlevelled for the story

[jolly sorrel]

Sidequests are a lore thing. If you're into lore, they're pretty good. Not much in terms of exp though

[tawdry otter]

someone know which spells are important for crafter and for gatherer?

[modest igloo]

all of them

[wintry sable]

One more question, when will they charge me for the payment?

[modest igloo]

but you dont need to click them fast

[mental oracle]

What's this greyed out blue icon? https://i.imgur.com/ayS5Yqd.png

from blue mage book

[faint flare]

If there's any Pfs for it

[mental oracle]

oh

[faint flare]

Since that's how you get blue groups

[twilit arch]

unless you request to be debited now, SE store charges at release

[wintry sable]

I actually buy on credit, and would like to pay from now, so how to request to be charged and be done with it?

[short jasper]

You into your preorder page and hit the button to do so. You'll probably find the link in the email

[junior yacht]

there should be a link in the confirmation email that will let you do it

[timber gale]

Do people not run HoH anymore? Queue is dead

[wintry sable]

They just take me to the activation key, nothing else

[twilit arch]

go into your orders, there should be an option next to the pre-order that says "manage", click on that.

[wintry sable]

The option is "Debit now" right?

[twilit arch]

yes

[scenic patio]

Guys i have Q :
what the difference between online Starter Edition and SHADOWBRINGERS™️ STANDARD EDITION ?

[remote lintel]

starter edition is the base game and shadowbringers is the dlc

[wintry sable]

Done. It feels good to be done from any payment obligations

[lapis bear]

is it a big deal if i start on a japanase data center or something? (im from eu)

[wintry sable]

ty you all

[tawdry otter]

not really useful when i don't know which is the correct order to use the spells

[remote lintel]

@lapis bear unless your ping sucks no its not

[scenic patio]

so if i want to play FFxiv online i only should buy online Starter Edition right or SHADOWBRINGERS ? Hmmm

[wintry sable]

Remind me, collector edition code is different from normal code right?

[lapis bear]

is there a way to check ping?

[remote lintel]

both

you need both to play the full game

[remote lintel]

!faq subprice

[zinc orbit]

Subscription Prices

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/iPm8PE2.png

[remote lintel]

cheapest is 13$

[scenic patio]

but i should buy the dlc and online

[lapis bear]

is 260ms ping bad for ffxiv after all its an mmo

[scenic patio]

thats so Expensive

[modest igloo]

yeah its not great

[remote lintel]

its the price of a regular triple A game

[modest igloo]

60$ plus sub

[lavish fjord]

Speaking of ping, where do i see my ping?

[remote lintel]

scroll up

[lapis bear]

you can check it on your cmd console

if you got the budget with the content the game gives its worth i think

im about to start just got it

[stone stone]

Theres technically an ACT plugin, but thats a whole nother can of worms

[remote lintel]

ACT has nothing to do with ping

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi
Is it worth using tombstones to buy the item level 130 gear in mor dhona?
I’m new to the franchise and just flown through ARR first MSQs

[stone stone]

ACT has a plugin to display your ping

[remote lintel]

oh huh

[modest igloo]

yes

very much so

[lavish fjord]

20ms not bad

[stone stone]

something IMO should just be in the game..

[remote lintel]

@leaden ginkgo thats the old endgame gear which is the best gear for that level cap, same thing with lvl 60 and 70

[faint flare]

Definitely get the weapon first

To basically double your damage

[modest igloo]

ironworks, shire, and scaven are the 3 old expac gear

[leaden ginkgo]

I’ve already got a lvl 133 set of claws

I need some confirmation from you lovely people : https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/564956/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition-pc-download < This is all the expansions and basically the full game up to shadowbringers correct?

Got them for like 30k on the market was a steal

[faint flare]

If they're not High quality then you wasted money

[remote lintel]

@leaden ginkgo yes

[modest igloo]

you got it

[leaden ginkgo]

Thank you!

[leaden ginkgo]

How do you check quality 🤔

[scenic patio]

what gonna happend if i just buy the online Starter Edition ?

[faint flare]

Are high quality

[remote lintel]

@leaden ginkgo if the icon is shiny

[lapis bear]

how long do you guys think i need to wait until a exp boosted server which doesnt allow new characters opens up or can i swap my world later?

[faint flare]

It has that in its name and the icon is shiny

[modest igloo]

you have access to ARR and HW and no free trial limits

but no SB or ShB

[remote lintel]

@lapis bear off hours, so like early morning

[strange coral]

Swapping to a preferred server won't give you the exp boost. You have to create the character there.

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok this is me

[lapis bear]

ah that sucks

[faint flare]

You wasted money ey

You got normal quality weapons

Ironworks is far superior

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok 👌🏼

[faint flare]

In 3v1ery slot

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks for the steer

[modest igloo]

melding is also not the best until lvl 80

[lapis lagoon]

has anyone's mount roulette button just randomly said "screw your favorites" and summon random non-fav mounts?

[remote lintel]

left is normal quality

[faint flare]

You never use normal quality gear post lv50

[remote lintel]

right is high quality

[modest igloo]

if you sync down in content you lose the excess stats

[faint flare]

Normal quality gear had less stats than other equal ilvl gear

By alot

[remote lintel]

@lapis lagoon do you have the "only take from favorites" ticked?

[lapis lagoon]

yes

[faint flare]

They're effectively minus 30 ilvl in stats

[lapis lagoon]

it was working fine till a couple of days ago

[leaden ginkgo]

I believe you will still have to buy the other expansions separately to continue on past the starter edition but thats my assumption

[austere vector]

Hello. Can someone tell me if there any website or something that help us keep informed about ishgard feste time ? I'm always missing the time...

[lapis bear]

im so lucky i just refreshed and zodiark came available

[faint flare]

No cause the time is different per server

Just go to the firmament and note the time

[remote lintel]

@lapis lagoon did you try taking the roulette off your hotbar and putting it back on again and making sure your favorites are correct

[austere vector]

okay and did they fix the timer problem ?

[faint flare]

What problem

[lapis lagoon]

nvm, i just saw the small help text that says you need at least 2 in favs for it to work

[austere vector]

in the chat i remember when it was written 3h35 people said it's 3 days and not 3 hours

[faint flare]

Never heard of that...you probably got trolled

The timers are accurate

Plus it's never longer than 2 days

[austere vector]

i see, thanks for answers

[jade willow]

ARR is killing me guys.. lvl29 newbie, i'm pretty sure i want to skip as i have kid, not enough time and story is not my thing. what skip or skips should i buy so i can begin doing more interesting content (raids/dungeons/whatever)?

[remote lintel]

all expansions have raids

dungeons are throughout the story

[jade willow]

yeah but i have 2 skills

[remote lintel]

2 skills as a lvl 29

[faint flare]

As normal to the Start of an mmo

[jade willow]

and the fights are brain dead

[remote lintel]

are you doing your class quests?

[short jasper]

All MMOs have that 'you have no abilities and basic enemies' section of it.

[jade willow]

i'm exaggerating.. playing warrior, so just spamming aoe or 2-button single target rotation

[remote lintel]

yes tanks only have a 123 combo

[short jasper]

It'll get better, you'll start to see things escalate very soon.

[remote lintel]

they have the simplest rotation

[agile summit]

So this has probobly been asked and answered but which is faster for farm, nidhogg or hades for tomestone

[modest igloo]

both are about the same

hades is more common tho

[agile summit]

I’m clocking in about 10 min for hades

[remote lintel]

also even if you skipped you would have to play through shadowbringers

[agile summit]

Imagine wanting to skip past shadowbringers

[jade willow]

isn't shadowbringers way better?

[remote lintel]

all expansions are only good because of ARR

[faint flare]

Only because you understand the previous expansions story

[remote lintel]

skip ARR and nothing makes sense

[faint flare]

Like arr

[jade willow]

ugh lol

[faint flare]

Arr is the necessary evil

[agile summit]

Honestly I’m glad that ARR made you do the crystal tower

I would have been lost without it lol

[jade willow]

i'm already spamming through the dialogue, maybe game's not for me tbh

[faint flare]

Can't understand season 4 of a Netflix show without what they set up in season 1

[jade willow]

thx

[remote lintel]

this is a final fantasy game

[modest igloo]

thats ok man

its not for everyone

[short jasper]

Honestly, ARR's story isn't actually that bad, for an MMO.

[exotic scroll]

I like the game but the story just feels a little meh to start with

[agile summit]

Ff games are known for heavy emphasis on plot and character development. A slow burn for sure

ARR is def third on the list

[remote lintel]

not only that, its the length of 4 whole final fantasy games in one

[short jasper]

Have you ever seen Star Trek: The Next Generation? The first season's kinda wonky. It's not... good.

[agile summit]

Shadowbringers > HW > ARR >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SB

[modest igloo]

ShB>HW>SB>ARR

[short jasper]

The second season though, it's when it gets good.

But it's not that the first season's bad--it's just they hadn't figured themselves out yet. ARR's the same way. You're never going to get away from cutscenes, fetch quests--what happens is they find ways to plot the story out so that they're more interesting.

[manic flare]

yea SB is really the worst. I'm literally stuck on this expansion and find no motivation to progress thrrough

[short jasper]

Once you hit around 2.3, 2.4, you started noticing the quality raise. 2.5 is quite excellent, and from there the game maintains a consistant quality.

[remote lintel]

#general-discussion

[lavish fjord]

Why are my pets so trash as a summoner? I do more than double their damage

[short jasper]

This person, for the record, doesn't actually do MSQ and spends their time levelling instead.

[faint flare]

Emerald does aoe damage

[remote lintel]

because pets arent supposed to do all the damage for you

[mental oracle]

Does the chance get lowered in the next steps? https://i.imgur.com/q4n1Kyw.png

[modest igloo]

yep

[short jasper]

Yes. On top of this, you can only overmeld one +60 materia.

[modest igloo]

you dont really need to pentameld anymore

[jade willow]

is there a way to speed shit up at least? like maybe buying pet or osmething

[wintry chasm]

You can't meld VIII past that next slot anyway

[faint flare]

No

[clear shoal]

Will the Firmament go away once that housing area opens up?

[modest igloo]

no

[wintry chasm]

No @clear shoal

[faint flare]

No

[jade willow]

*mount i meant

[faint flare]

It'd permanent content

[remote lintel]

you get a mount at lvl 20

[modest igloo]

!faq mount

[zinc orbit]

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.

[clear shoal]

Awesome

[modest igloo]

msq is what you sohuld be grinding

not level

[short jasper]

Hit your buttons faster, do msq, it's already fast as it is.

[faint flare]

You can't even use mounts until you progress the story enough

Even if you brought one

[mental oracle]

I have to use VII if I succeed this step?

[jade willow]

ok i missed that quest apparently

[modest igloo]

level of your class is meaningless outside the story

[wintry chasm]

Yep

[faint flare]

It's under the main scenario tracker after yoy join a grand company

[wintry chasm]

^

you might want to pay attention to that...you're kinda meant to

[spiral inlet]

each time the relic weapon levels

does it jump 10 or twenty levels?

[short jasper]

Sometimes zero!

[faint flare]

Depends

[short jasper]

Each step is different

[jade willow]

so where is the grand company lol

[spiral inlet]

I'm.... doing the soul farming

[short jasper]

You can't miss it, the MSQ forces you into one.

[faint flare]

Depends which you joinee

[wintry chasm]

Which one did you join?

[remote lintel]

note that its MSQ lvl 20, not CHARACTER level 20

[wintry chasm]

^

[jade willow]

ohhh

[remote lintel]

your character level doesnt do anything

[clear shoal]

What about FETEs? WIll those go away when this housing area opens up?

[faint flare]

No

Everything in firmament is permanent content

[short jasper]

You cannot skip the story in this game. If you have MMO experience: The MSQ is an attunement quest that starts at level 1 and goes to level 80 and includes everything. Everything in this game is through attunement quests.

[mental oracle]

Why not?

[clear shoal]

So, even when this turns into an actual housing area, FETEs will still be happening in our neighborhoods? That's pretty cool

[remote lintel]

because exarchic is the bare minimum for entry

[modest igloo]

you can upgrade the crafted gear

[remote lintel]

and you get better gear

[modest igloo]

to 520

[mental oracle]

oh

[faint flare]

It will be a different zone itself

[open coral]

The housing part of it will be instanced separately from the "restoration" part.

[faint flare]

Probably

[modest igloo]

and ilvl> substats

[wintry chasm]

Frankly it's going to be a separate instance tbh otherwise ||you'd be kicking out all the newly homed Ishgardians :(||

[clear shoal]

Ah, okay. Bummer, that would have been cool.

[short jasper]

No, the Firmament will be a seperate instance. The housing instances will be a different, but similarily layed out place.

[clear shoal]

I almost never see people around my house. Would have felt more like a neighborhood for a second, lol

Cool. Thanks for all the answers!

makes sense though. That would be 20something events at once. You'd still never see anyone with it all spread out lol

[short jasper]

technically not true. Weapon damage>main stat>substats. Ilvl just gives you an idea of the stat budget but in the cases of normal quality crafted items, and items that exist as crafting mats, ilvl (especially in ARR) doesn't always tell you the power of the item.

[manic flare]

everyone gets their own randomized mini cactpot cards correct?

[open coral]

Yes

[modest igloo]

for that scenario, it was ilvl>substats

[short jasper]

There's GC items with lower ilvl that are actually better than similar ilvl'd weapons and such, there's aetherial pink items.

[modest igloo]

do we have an FAQ on that?

[short jasper]

ilvl isn't a combat stat. It's a shortcut. It's not always a useful one.

[onyx kiln]

heard that the potions of harmony boosts the amount you fill up your aether kettle in Eureka, is this true and by how much?

[modest igloo]

it was in that scenario

but either way you are right

[jade willow]

when do i get to feel like i actually achieved something instead of just mindlessly following dotted line around empty environments?

[modest igloo]

about 50 hours into the msq at 3.0

[leaden ginkgo]

@faint flare so even though the gear says ilvl 133 because it’s normal it’s effectively rubbish

[jade willow]

thanks

[short jasper]

When you start doing the main quest, start involving yourself in the story.

[faint flare]

Yes

Again, normal quality gear that's not from dungeons or tomes have less stats than they show

[short jasper]

literally why I tell people ilvl is not a combat stat

[jade willow]

nah i'm 99% sure the story can't win me over unfortunately =))

[short jasper]

You haven't seen it yet.

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks guys
You don’t know what you don’t know

[short jasper]

Give it time, give it a chance, it really is decent.

[modest igloo]

i mean if you have a kid mmos are gonna be tough

[short jasper]

But it's an MMO, you gotta give it that 'MMOs start slow' chance.

[modest igloo]

also, this

[jade willow]

i'm trying lol.. i'm much more of a sandbox mmo kinda guy tho

[junior yacht]

that's not really accurate
gear always has the stats displayed
NQ gear just has lower stats than tome, dungeon, or HQ gear of an equivalent ilvl

[spring elk]

hey guys, whenever I try to ping any of the data centers (https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/freecompany/9233505136016372924/forum/43814/) I get "Request timed out"?

[flat yew]

Is there some special tome weapon you can pick up at 50 or do tomes only get you jewelry/armour?

[short jasper]

That's fair. This is definately not a sandbox.

[faint flare]

Ironworks weapon

[junior yacht]

you can exchange tomes for weapons, yes

[short jasper]

Tomestones can be used for any battle equipment. Poetics in particular at levels 50, 60, and 70

[modest igloo]

i can totally understand it if its not your thing, just try not to critique the whole game when you've only done like 5% of it

[junior yacht]

the vendor that sells armor also sells tokens that you can trade for the weapons

[flat yew]

oh, I have to buy tokens for the weapons

[junior yacht]

it's a little involved, but if you already know where the armor and accessories are sold you're on the right track

[short jasper]

It means you're dropping packets between you and the server you're pinging. You don't have a connection to it through the internet for one reason or another.

[jade willow]

i'm amazed nobody has started raging at me for my ignorance! very encouraging, will keep plodding along and thanks for the help all

[faint flare]

Not for old weapons

Old poetics weapons are just brought straight up

[short jasper]

No problem, everyone's been in your shoes, mate, it's all good

[flat yew]

I'm leveling my second job (WAR) right now, hit 50, and can't find the weapon for it haha

[faint flare]

They are always in a different npc, next to the armour vendor

[spring elk]

what else could I do to check ping?

[short jasper]

You actually don't. Go, instead, to one of the three cities, and look for the Sundry Splendors vendor near the aetheryte. They let you skip all that.

[modest igloo]

do have fun, but if its still a slog you're more than free to leave. life can be a real timesink hahaha

[flat yew]

ah yeah just noticed that there's a second servant of splendors next to the armour one

[ivory iris]

This may be really dumb to ask, but if I join an instance that's part of the way complete am I still elegible for rewards like mounts or TT card drops?

[faint flare]

Yes

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

Flying is unlocked through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.

Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/

[jade willow]

so my single target rotation should be: heavy swing -> maim -> storm's path, but path never gets the dotted line.. what gives?

[spring elk]

nvm, used a traceroute; ty for the explanation though, was going crazy

[exotic flume]

ty

[modest igloo]

#kupo-bot-spam is where you use faqs the most, we try to keep here clean

[exotic flume]

My bad

[modest igloo]

all good, now you know

[short jasper]

Tracert will tell you where the connection's going down. Doesn't mean you can do much about it unless it's at your router.

[faint flare]

You're missing on your Maim hit

[modest igloo]

you may be either missing the target, or not have the skill unlocked in the content you're doing

[faint flare]

You can only miss if you're fighting mobs higher level

[modest igloo]

since dungeons sync you down

[jade willow]

ahhhhh that's it paragon tyty

[vivid bane]

sorry to interrupt, but for a new player, what support classes would you recommend?

[modest igloo]

white mage

[spring elk]

I can connect/login to the game though

[modest igloo]

evolves from conjurer

[vivid bane]

ok thanks

[short jasper]

True. But if you're having issues and dropping packets, an intermittent connection might explain.

So you can connect to the servers, but... it's not a stable connection?

If you get what I mean?

[junior yacht]

note: conjurer and white mages are healers
XIV doesn't really have any traditional support classes

[modest igloo]

healers dps 60% of the time anyways

[short jasper]

Support aka 'I just buff and debuff and cc things' isn't really a role in this game, but most jobs have support elements.

In fact, jobs without support elements are a rarity.

i cant even log into the manage account page

[languid mortar]

I was wondering if someone would be able to give me some direction on what to do as a returning player from 2019... i have 2 level 60's (PLD/DRK) and it's a bit overwhelming coming back and not knowing how to play these characters. I'm scared to jump into a raid and not know how to tank or use my skills properly. any suggestions on what to do to get back into the swing of things?

[short jasper]

According to a post by a square rep you need to go to:

Wait that's a different thing

Wrong square, lawl

[obsidian patio]

I recommend clearing your hotbars and putting stuff back on as you read the tooltips

[dusk lava]

Do I need to clear e9s before accessing e10s ?

[faint flare]

Every week yes

Unless you want to forfeit loot in 9s

[short jasper]

Specifically, if you do not complete e9s at least once, e10s will be locked and parties you join cannot go into e10s.
Once you've cleared e9s, you can join parties that are doing e10s, but you'll skip e9s as loot if you hadn't done it that week.
You still have to have cleared e9s once on that character.

[dusk lava]

Ok, thx !

[faint flare]

You can enter 10s without clearing 9s, just you'll forfeit everything from 9s

For the week

[short jasper]

Unless you've yet to clear it once, in your life.

[dusk lava]

So I guess for someone who's new to savage, atm, I need to start at e9s

[faint flare]

No

Full parties ignore it

We dragged a friends alt to 12s

To fill in

[short jasper]

Yes. You need to clear e9s, then clear e10s, then clear e11s, then you can do e12s.

Once you've done this for the first time, then you can skip.

[short jasper]

Had that alt ever cleared e11s?

[agile laurel]

Somebody in the party needs to have cleared e11, for example, that week, for their party to enter 12

[faint flare]

No

It was a fresh alt

[open ember]

You can't skip floors unless you already cleared floors Once

[short jasper]

So, the alt skipped prog?

[faint flare]

Yeah

[short jasper]

X.

[azure ivy]

Ive never cleared e9s but skipped n cleared e10s, you dont need to clear it once to unloxk nezt floors besidea the week

[open ember]

O.o

I've never heard of that

[faint flare]

Freshly skipped with Exarchic and all

Full parties ignore all que requirements

[short jasper]

That... seems hinky.

[open ember]

Regardless I don't recommend skipping floors anyway

You should do every fight in the tier

Its an experience and it's fun

[agile laurel]

poking this. anyone know?

[frank mountain]

Heya, is there a guide on stances? I have "all" and "other" when I press Z, what is tank stance?

[faint flare]

It's a tank skill all tanks havr

That let's them generate aggro

[frank mountain]

Oh, so iron will for PLD?

[faint flare]

Yes

[austere meadow]

Theoretically my que times for roulette and specific duties should be the same, right? The people that que for specific duties get paired paired up with anyone else that is qued for that duty and then fill in the space with those from roulette. You que first you go first. So why is it that when I'm on during low activity and que'd for an MSQ trial, my timer is 2-3 times that of roulette? Is specific duty just pushed that far down the waiting list?

[frank mountain]

Ah, it isn't the Z stance button?

[junior yacht]

tank stance is a button on your hotbar
pressing Z is just an aesthetic thing

[agile laurel]

Z is just unsheath weapon, calling it 'stance' is more a translation error. Tank stance is iron will for pld, defiance+grit+royal guard for war drk gnb

[frank mountain]

DOH

[obsidian patio]

I’d say it’s fairly doable if everyone read a guide for the upper floors

[faint flare]

That'd your target filters

[open ember]

!action iron Will

[zinc orbit]

**Iron Will** : lvl 10 GLA PLD (10.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Significantly increases enmity generation.
Effect ends upon reuse.

Powered by XIVAPI

[short jasper]

Every tank has an ability which increases enmity. Iron Will for PLD, Royal Guard for GNB, Grit for DRK, and Defiance for Warrior. It means your moves make enemies stick to you better.

[faint flare]

You have different targetting filters for when your weapon is sheathed vs weapon drawn

Mainly a thing for controller

[short jasper]

Enmity is FF14's fancy word for 'hate' or 'threat' or 'agro.'

[faint flare]

So we don't target allies when trying to tab target

[frank mountain]

Yeh, enmity made sense, but I was so confused why my stance/Z button was just unsheathing my weapon and not doing anything for it.

[open ember]

Sheath weapon is not tank stance

[frank mountain]

Thanks, yeh that is just what the menu said.

[austere meadow]

Controller still sucks for targetting. up/down is for party, left/right is for party plus filters. I don't think filters work properly for controller.

[faint flare]

That's why you actually go and change it

My left/right doesn't target allies

When my weapon is out

[obsidian patio]

They do. You can customize the filters and add additional filter sets to access with L1+face buttons

[faint flare]

Or anyone for that matter

[scarlet widget]

What does the sprout with a gold ring underneath it mean? It's visible on certain players in friendlist and linkshells

[little swift]

Not just aesthetic, sheathing weapon can be a valid tool for dealing with pyretic mechanics

[twilit arch]

means they're in novice network @scarlet widget

[scarlet widget]

Ahh thanks!

[austere meadow]

Character > Control > Target > Filter > weapon drawn. Party is not selected yet it still selects party members with left right.

[faint flare]

🤷‍♂️ mine doesnt

[austere meadow]

I'm pretty sure there is a mechanic somewhere that requires you to sheath your weapon.

[open ember]

What does your settings look like

For filters

[little swift]

Yes I just gave an example where you could use it like that

[austere meadow]

All enemies, aggro, enemies, duty-specific enemies.

[open ember]

I was asking for an image but ok that works

[austere meadow]

Yeah pyretic is the one where if you do anything you get hurt, right?

[faint flare]

Yes

[little swift]

Yes

[inland zenith]

Is it possible to use a macro for swiftcast ress?

[open ember]

Yea but its not recommended

[little swift]

Alternatively you would click off the target ring so you don't auto attack

[faint flare]

Don't need to sheath your weapon, just stop autoing by spamming escape/circle

[inland zenith]

That's what I thought

[austere meadow]

PS, getting an image is a lot of work to screencap, flashdrive (usbA) move to pc, move to USBC flashdrive, move to laptop, post to discord.

[inland zenith]

Macros tend to misbehave

[open ember]

Fair enough

Your own input is faster than a macro

Most battle based macros aren't really recommended

[austere meadow]

Now adays people just use macro for chatting that they are going to raise and keep the actions separate from what I can tell.

[little swift]

The only recommended macro is sprint

Anything else is arguably convenience/ laziness

[austere meadow]

Why would you macro sprint?

[little swift]

!faq macrosprint

[open ember]

To map onto your controller

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named macrosprint exists, Kupo!

[little swift]

!faq sprintmacro

[zinc orbit]

Sprint is nice when macro'd

Sprint won't queue like most standard actions. Give this macro a try for slightly better responsiveness:

/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/micon Sprint```

[little swift]

Its because it doesn't queue like an ogcd

So its shit on its own

[open ember]

I don't like using a hotbar space for sprint so I have it on a controller when I hit r3

[faint flare]

Also to put sprint on L/R3 for controller

Since those can be assigned to macro 99 or 98

[austere meadow]

Also, go ahead and macro placedowns, it's so much easier, you don't use em often so it doesn't really cost GCD, and placing them with a controller hurts gcd anyways.

[faint flare]

So you slap the sprint macro there

And just l3 sprint

[little swift]

Ground target stuff is fine as well

[faint flare]

I double weave my soil fine

Fast fingers bois

[little swift]

But if you are on kbm manually placing them isn't terrible

Its still better to manual place due to queuing but the macro is a convenience option

[open ember]

im cursed and use controller for battle but manually place ground targeting skills on mouse

[austere meadow]

Its only fast to place on controller when you are trying to place it on top of yourself. Place anywhere else and it's faster with a macro.

[faint flare]

Nah

Use your camera to target it in advance

The indicator always shows the same distance away

So just rotate your camera to place it down ahead of time

[little swift]

Its the same for kbm you can place your mouse where you want it placed ahead of time

[iron hornet]

Whats the fastest way to farm tomestone of allegory?

[faint flare]

Hunt trains

[heady lily]

i heard tomestones of allegory can be exchanged for gear upgrade items that can be sold for gil

[iron hornet]

and a 2 option? The hunt trains seem to be not instandly doable

[heady lily]

which items are these?

[open ember]

You can use allegory to upgrade exarchic gear to 520

[heady lily]

hunt trains are actually pretty doable, they happen many times a day i suggest you join the centurio hunts discord to see when they happen

[heady lily]

yeah i know that but can you sell the rains for gil?

[open ember]

Uh

I don't think so

[twilit arch]

no, the rains are not tradeable

[open ember]

That's what I thought

You can exchange allegory to get materials to sell on the marketboard

But its not the rain

[compact linden]

can we farm normal edens verse or is everything still on a reset?

[open ember]

Unlocked

[compact linden]

tight

[open ember]

Its been unlocked for a while

As well as Eden's promise

[compact linden]

yeah just coming back

[twilit arch]

the only thing still weekly capped is the blade

er for promise that is

verse is completely unlocked

[spiral inlet]

Kael how many levels does the relic weapon jump

after I farm the souls

[twilit arch]

i485 > i500> i510 > i535(on tuesday)

[spiral inlet]

assuming I get soul farming done today

how long does it take to get 500-510

[twilit arch]

soul farming?

[open ember]

I think they mean memories

[spiral inlet]

yeah

memories

[open ember]

Haunting and Vex memories step is a one time deal

Loathsome memories are not

[twilit arch]

getting to 510 doesn't take that long

[spiral inlet]

ohhh ok

[twilit arch]

find a cluster farm and you can get the tortured/sorrow/harrowing memories done easy in bozja

[faint flare]

Just 15 loathsome, which is 3 castrum runs

[wanton talon]

I got to around level 40ish
As far as i can remember i am mostly killing stuff in open areas with different scenery
do the environments in single player content get any more interesting in later areas from a gameplay perspective?
I mean environments that have affect on gameplay, such as caves with specific layouts, buildings etc. things that are more than just cosmetic.

[obsidian patio]

Not really

[dusk trail]

does anyone know if you can pay for world transfer with your steam wallet?

[bold narwhal]

the scrolls that boost crafter/gather xp are there combat variations?

[halcyon mountain]

I just reach level 50 on my first character in my free trial. the MSQ really give out a low exp is there anyway i can easily farm some exp and gear for progression ?

[faint flare]

You don't need the xp

Your level is meaningless

You buy gear with poetics in mor Dhona or sundry splendors in main cities

[obsidian patio]

Do your daily roulettes for EXP and tomestones

[vernal urchin]

you don't need the xp, since all the quests between ARR and HW are level 50

[obsidian patio]

Main Scenario roulette is lengthy due to it being Castrum and Praetorium, but gives a lot of the two

[faint flare]

Quest xp goes back to normal when you get to heavensward

[vernal urchin]

and you will likely be like level 52/53 when you reach HW

[glossy flare]

Yes, you can buy crysta with your steam wallet and then pay for the transfer with crysta

[dusk trail]

thank you very much

[halcyon mountain]

so daily roulettes and buy item with tomestone until i get to HW

thanks

[glossy flare]

same process for all the other addons btw

the endgame gearing always works similarly, just the vendors are in different places

[halcyon mountain]

i see

poetic tombstone is for this period only right ? around 50~

[faint flare]

50 60 70 gear

[glossy flare]

poetics are for up to lvl 70 gear

[halcyon mountain]

oh

[faint flare]

You'll be capped by the time you need them again

[obsidian patio]

Poetics is the universal “old expansion” endgame gear

[faint flare]

Shit grows on trees

[halcyon mountain]

free trial is til 60 right ?

[obsidian patio]

i130 for ARR, i270 for HW, i400 for SB, and eventually the i530 stuff from SHB

[dense ivy]

er guys.. if i accidentally submitted expert delivery on an item.. is there anyway to get it back?

[short jasper]

Patches are generally done using the bittorrent protocol, so your download rate will not always be constant, if there's not many seeders.

[modest igloo]

nope, make sure you hit the "hide gearset items" in the menu

[dense ivy]

F... i traded in my GNB TEA weapon... now i dont have it anymore for glamour >.<

[faint flare]

You can send a ticket in and use your one time item retrieval

[dense ivy]

ya i have hide gearset items on.. but the weapon is not part of a set because of better ilvl GNB weapon now

[junior yacht]

aw dude, an Ultimate weapon? that sucks

[strange coral]

Support can restore it. But they will only give you one item restore per account iirc

[faint flare]

(unless the gm you get us really generous

i don't think they have a hard once-per-account rule, but yeah it's not something you can rely on

No

There isn't for any item

i'm surprised.isn't there a large datamining community for this game?

[faint flare]

You can't data mine drop rates

That's on the server side

Which would be illegal to hack into

[glossy flare]

Most drop rates we do have are either confirmed or estimates based on the data gathered

The latter being somewhat accurate but never 100%

[solid fog]

IS the gold coins from Delubrum Reginae 100% drop rate ?

No

For DPS Blues yes

[onyx anchor]

Ah, ok. Thank you!

[faint flare]

Cause dps mimicry gives them 20% direct hit

Flat out

So it loses alot of value

Tank/healer blues need the speed to get their spells out

[leaden ginkgo]

[faint flare]

No

[remote lintel]

you have to click the macro

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thx

[manic flare]

if i unsub would i lose my house at the end of my sub, or would it still take some time before i lose my plot?

[remote lintel]

you lose a house if you dont enter after 45 days

[faint flare]

It's still 45 days until last entering it

[lunar shale]

[remote lintel]

@storm pollen whichever is better than your gear

that you can equip

[glossy flare]

otherwise just the allagan piece

which you can sell for gil

[hardy vapor]

this is a very stupid question and not one I should bother asking but since the community is doing respect for murai, what's the emote for it? again very stupid and unimportant question

[glossy flare]

/cpose

[remote lintel]

the idle stance?

[faint flare]

/Cpose with your weapon out

[glossy flare]

with the weapon drawn

male and female stance differ though

[lunar shale]

[devout lichen]

is it worth putting materia in exarchic

[faint flare]

In the guaranteed slots yeah

[weary needle]

When the Endwalker come?

[devout lichen]

guaranteed slots?

[faint flare]

Just use tier 6s if you want

Yes

The two guaranteed slots it has

Exarchic is a crafted set so it can have 5 materia total

[devout lichen]

my belt only has 1 slot

[faint flare]

With the additional 3 requiring overmelding which destroys materia on fail

Overmelding forces extra materia in

All exarchic pieces can have 5 materia in it with overmelding

No that you want to overmeld at this point, really not worth it

hello if i start as conjurer and get to level 50 and do the astrolog quest to open an astrolog, do i start as a lvl 30 astrolog? or 50?

[faint flare]

30

[glossy flare]

30

[chilly terrace]

thanks

[faint flare]

Heavensward jobs start at 30

[devout lichen]

also is there a way to turn way too many lower tier materia into higher ones

[chilly terrace]

what about dragoon?

or it works differently

[modest igloo]

lvl 1

its an ARR class

[faint flare]

Dragoon starts at 1 with Lancer base

[chilly terrace]

so i get with lancer to 50 and come to level 1?

[faint flare]

Transmutation at Mutamix but it's really rng

No

Lancer to 30 then it evolves to dragoon

Dragoon IS Lancer

[shrewd owl]

like how white mage IS conjurer

[modest igloo]

lancer is kinda like CNJ where it becomes DRG, like how CNJ becomes WHM

[chilly terrace]

so i can continue from 30 as a dragoon right?

[faint flare]

Yes

[chilly terrace]

o cool

ty

[faint flare]

Works like how it was for conjurer to white mage as said

...which you are a white mage

[chilly terrace]

sucks for my friend he wanted an astrolog

l0l

[faint flare]

Well they learn how to heal

[devout lichen]

I dont need to have the materia in my inventory to put it in my gear right

[faint flare]

You do to meld it

[modest igloo]

yes you need to have it

[devout lichen]

alright, I put crit into everything I could put crit into it

[fading helm]

how do u get the emperors new robe? can i just buy it

or is there some long quest i have to do for it like the beast tribes

[bitter fulcrum]

mor dhona

vendor in marketplace next to the rowena area

[faint flare]

Lv15 crafters then buy it from a vendor in vesper bay or mor Dhona

Or buy off market board at like 10x the price

[fading helm]

i hace to be lv 15 crafter?

[faint flare]

Yes

[fading helm]

ugh im level 0 crafter

[faint flare]

To buy from the vendor

[fading helm]

how long does it take to get to 15

actually i may not even be a crafter at all lol

[faint flare]

Like an hour or so

[boreal storm]

Lvl 15 crafter unlocks glam, which unlocks the emperor gear

[bitter fulcrum]

^

you need one crafter 15 to even make use of it

[faint flare]

Unlock glamour prism creation

Not glamour itself

[verbal swallow]

is healer harder to play than dps

[fading helm]

how do i um become a crafter lol

[faint flare]

Go unlock it like any other job

[faint flare]

No...simplest dps rotations in the game...just have to babysit the other idiots in the group but nothing really does alot of damage until high end raids

[fading helm]

its a guild?

[faint flare]

Yes. Like any other job

Just go to their respective guild and pick it up

[fading helm]

isnt there multiple different crafters tho

[faint flare]

Yes

[fading helm]

any of them is fine?

[faint flare]

9 and 3 gatherers

[bitter fulcrum]

I have a macro question that I dont even know if it is possible

I am trying to find a way to open the housing menu, and the mount guide with a macro, not the hotbar icon, can thatbe done?

[faint flare]

Yes

[modest igloo]

7 crafters 3 gathers

[verbal swallow]

does healer have to click targest to heal or can i use keyboadrd

[boreal storm]

Not culinarian, they can’t make prisms

[faint flare]

Keyboard, by default f keys target allies

You can click the party list if you want

[verbal swallow]

but f1 f2 ettc faster right?

[faint flare]

If you're faster at pressing them

[leaden ginkgo]

how good is the latest ultimates weapon

[modest igloo]

its glam

[warm snow]

It's purely glamour

[modest igloo]

worse than crafted

[warm snow]

It has the same stats as the current savage weapon when it was released

[faint flare]

475 ilvl

[warm snow]

Which you'd have wanted in to clear it at the time

[faint flare]

but they're bis for glamour wars

[warm snow]

Except for dnc

We still don't get good glam

Just the shire weapons with Alex glow

And the shire weapons be ugly

[fading helm]

so im guessing as a crafter i dont hit enemies? lol

[faint flare]

No

[warm snow]

You can

[faint flare]

You make stuff

[warm snow]

It's just going to go very poorly

[fading helm]

ok this is too complicated lol

[warm snow]

You don't get extra hp, ever

[boreal storm]

Not really

[fading helm]

how do i craft stuff

[trail mulch]

hello if I haven’t trf to the world I wanna eb on

[fading helm]

im pressing 1 and nothing is happening

[faint flare]

Open the crafting log

[trail mulch]

Should I cop the EB

[warm snow]

You dismissed the popup explaining how to craft, didn't you

[boreal storm]

Press N on your keyboard

[fading helm]

okay im in

[warm snow]

Go back into your settings and turn back on active help

[fading helm]

i dont even think it gave me a pop up

[boreal storm]

It should’ve

[warm snow]

Not if you disabled active help

[fading helm]

yeah i quit this im not a crafter

lol

[modest igloo]

then no glam for you\

[fading helm]

isnt glam just gear

[boreal storm]

Stylish gear

[remote lintel]

a lot of glam is crafted

[fading helm]

u can only get stylish gear thru crafting

ugh

why is it so complicated

[remote lintel]

either that or buy it from people who crafted it

[modest igloo]

its 14 levels

not that hard

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a way to hide your weapon?

[faint flare]

You can literally just buy the items that the grand company asks you to make to level crafters

[faint flare]

Without touching then

[remote lintel]

this icon on the character window

[fading helm]

so what should i do rn to level my crafter, go to the GC?

[leaden ginkgo]

Thank you!

[faint flare]

Either throw money at it and buy your daily grand company turn in items

(making sure it's high quality)

[fading helm]

yeah ill do that since im gil capped anyways

[faint flare]

Or just sit and craft everything in the crafting log until 15...all mats are buyable from guild suppliers

[fading helm]

but is there a list somewhere that tells me what i need to craft

[boreal storm]

Crafting log

[warm snow]

Your crafting log

[faint flare]

In your timers

[fading helm]

when i press N i see it says craftable this fire iron

fire shard i mean

[faint flare]

The right side are rhe mats needed

[warm snow]

You use elemental shards/crystals/clusters for every craft in the game. They have a dedicated page in your inventory

[leaden ginkgo]

Yo where can I get some trout 😳

[warm snow]

You fish for it

There's also several different trout in the game so please be specific?

[leaden ginkgo]

Im doing the like second or third quest for cooking and I have to give someone a grilled trout but I need a Princess Trout for it

[faint flare]

Go fish or buy off market board

[rich geyser]

there's no way to get midgardsomr minion to sit on your shoulder is there?

[warm snow]

If it has a listed price in the item description you could try the fishmonger in limsa

[obsidian patio]

Buy it from the vendor at x10, y13 in the Limsa Lominsa upper decks
