All servers are fine. Only some are very crowded.
faint flare
Plus it doesn't matter since everything except guilds is cross server
raven silo
awesome, thank you for the quick answers
whole wasp
You also play with the whole DC so servers dont really matter thay much.
Only really affects which player guild you can join. Thats about it.

In beast tribe ranks wiki says The reputation rank of Sworn requires 1730 reputation points to cap.

just any job at 60
devout crystal
Cool. Thank you.
humble needle
how do you tell what is going to be needed for what job, so like a ring how can you tell what job it is?
twilit arch
after 60, accessories become role locked
er
for crafting the item itself, its usually based on the materials
whole wasp
You can tell by which job repairs it. It should say on the item itself.

If its not a specific item, you gotta guess basically.

According to my search it seems GNB is hands down the most difficult tank among all 4. But how is it compared to all Jobs in ff14? Still pretty low since it's a tank? Or it is pretty high on the difficulty ladder?

if someone is messaging me saying teyre paying 30k for 2 signatures for a FC

foggy flame
Gunbreaker has a strict rotation for most optimal play
whole wasp
Tanks are relatively easy to play. You just gotta multitask slightly.
jolly sorrel
It's pretty normal. 30k isn't a lot, and you're required to have 4 people to create an FC. You can leave right after.
tbh I'd do it for free but hey.

You can select a different datacenter from the title screen menu. But to move your character you would need to pay for a home world transfer.

how exactly do you cluster farm, is it just making an 8 person party and running around killing as many rank1/2 mobs as you can?
And can you do it without lost actions, I barely have any and the ones I do have Im saving for DR Savage
mental oracle
Why are these options not working for me? https://i.imgur.com/Obliqr1.png Isn't it supposed to show me a dot on the target closest to the mouse?
strange coral
how exactly do you cluster farm, is it just making an 8 person party and running...
The one farm I did had a 8 man group split in two locations. Each one had a tank that would round up a bunch of mobs and pull them to the other 3 to dps them down.
glossy flare
the rank doesn't matter btw, it's all 4th legion mobs that can drop clusters
So you wanna kill those
faint flare
how exactly do you cluster farm, is it just making an 8 person party and running...
You kill magitek mobs specifically
glossy flare
And splitting up the party is encouraged because then you can cover more ground but the party still gets all the drops
tardy patio
so its as easy as joining a party as dps, following the tank and killing anything that they pull basically
faint flare
Yes

It says rewards received on the duty finder
2/3 means you didn't get your gear piece
tardy patio
Within raid buffs
Does the queen actually pick up devotion, battle litany, etc?
glossy flare
it is affected by raid buffs, yes
but you rarely manually execute it anyway
no reason to unless the boss disappears
glacial robin
But you explode the queen in the begining or before it ends or just let the timer run out?
tardy patio
Oh neat, I thought it was a non-pet summon like dark simulacrum. I guess it makes sense because you can give it a command after summoning though
glossy flare
just let it run out
queen will execute the finisher at the end on her own regardless
tardy patio
but you rarely manually execute it anyway
Wait only the final attack is affected by raid buffs? I meant the entire thing
glacial robin
Yes but the finisher will be weaker
glossy flare
so using it manually only makes sense if the boss wouldn't be there when the timer runs out
glacial robin
Finisher is stronger with more energy
glossy flare
that's just to compensate for lost time she would have spent attacking
last patio
It says rewards received on the duty finder
looking for that but I don't see it.
im probably blind though
glossy flare
most dmg comes from full duration + finisher
hearty mantle
has anyone obtained menenius's 2nd field notes from zadnor? its my last one
glossy flare
Wait only the final attack is affected by raid buffs? I meant the entire thing
Everything is affected by raid buffs which is why you use queen under raid buffs and then just let it run out
last patio
Oh
tardy patio
Oh I get it. Queen snapshots your buffs when you summon it. The queen itself doesnt get buffs
glossy flare
exactly
tardy patio
So it's literally just a living dot
glossy flare
just a fancy dot with a finisher, yes
last patio
just a bit confused cuz again I'm probably blind but I don't see the coin from doing the first nier raid in my inventory so D: @remote lintel

Well if you need the coin, then you can run it
remote lintel

Nier raid isn't time limited right?

How to transfer all my hotbars and settings from pc to ps4? I have seen a transfer settings option in the character selection menu, but not sure it's that one and it said I should save my data locally first
strange coral
The built in transfer would be the only way since you can't directly mess with the PS4's save data
faint flare
Yes that's the character back up which saves settings to the cloud
glacial robin
How about the save data locally part? That scared me a bit
strange coral
It says that on the PC or on the PS4?
Oh I see it now. Never noticed it before. I guess it's just saying to make your own backup just in case? I don't know why backing up to the cloud would mess with it.
I could understand it if you were restoring, then it would make sense to make a backup in case the restore via cloud messes up and you need to restore your old data.

primal relic
Should I always be regen AST?
I feel like thereās never enough healing when Iām using shield AST.
sweet leaf
that's what i've been told
strange coral
Usually, yes. Unless you're paired with another AST. Then you'd want one to go shields.
twilit arch
for most content, yeah diurnal ast is generally recommended since its more efficient
sweet leaf
i was about to say that
with two asts, one will want to go shield since both sects at once don't stack effects
twilit arch
noct is usually good for content where you need the shields/or paired with another AST
primal relic
I always regen in solo healer role, but for duo I would shield w/ WHM or a Regen AST.
twilit arch
dont need to go noct with whm
sweet leaf
personally i would still regen with whm
twilit arch
unless you're progging savage/extremes, double regen is fine
shadow quartz
No one really uses Ornate gear past week 1 or 2 of tier week
Still sells for a mil
twilit arch
you should make sure you're looking at the sale history
just because there are some up for a mil doesn't mean they're actually selling for that much
open ember
it can sell for a mil but that doesnt mean people are gonna buy it at that price
primal relic
Hmmm I never had a problem with it in the past but recently I feel like duo healer content, there doesnāt seem enough healing going around.
shadow quartz
Saw someone pay 30 mil for one he just an idiot but hey free money
twilit arch
i mean there's nothing wrong with going noct ast with a whm
you just don't need to
double regen does most content just fine
primal relic
I know, I was just wondering if it normal for other healer to be lazily healing.
twilit arch
just the roulette of pugs
primal relic
WHM donāt use AoE regen anymore?
strange coral
In DF content I stay diurnal with WHMs
twilit arch
I usually don't
primal relic
Yes DF content
ripe hound
WHM donāt use GCD AOE Regen if they can
twilit arch
afflatus rapture is usually good enough
primal relic
For lvl 50 content
twilit arch
if asylum/assize is down
oh well in 50 content then like i mean still wouldn't necessarily use it
but again still kind of depends on what you're running
primal relic
Like my party is wiping in Prae and the 3 lvl 50 raid.
safe summit

not much you can do about that but adjust š¤·āāļø
vital ruin
okay so my BLM is lv 60 all the other casters are max lvl
WHM and AST is 60+ SCH is max
Do i trade the healer and caster ironwork set for seals or just sell
primal relic
Is that normal now, I only came back recently? Didnāt happen to me last year.
twilit arch
wouldn't really say its normal now
it happened plenty in the past
you're just getting unlucky, nothing's really changed in the past year or so
granted it doesn't help that we're rolling into the down time before the expac release but people like this existed well before
primal relic
Well I was being really petty and letting em die, since I donāt want to carry heal.
strange coral
I don't think I've ever seen a wipe in Prae. In the alliance raids sure, but usually due to failing mechanics
heavy wadi
you shouldn't be wiping in prae nowadays so sounds like a shitty cohealer, or something else is going on
hell, I've solo healed prae so I think there's more to that than just lack of healing
primal relic
They just cast regen on tank once in a while, no group regen and dps.
heavy wadi
That shouldn't be wiping the group, even in prae.
primal relic
Thatās why I ask if I should regen AST, since when I was doing WHM I never had a problem healing.
twilit arch
noct ast would still be capable of covering that just fine
heavy wadi
Even as noct ast you shouldn't be having issues solo healing.
twilit arch
how often do you actually play as a noct
primal relic
How? I see like entire group half hp. Unless I use light speed and spam AoE
Or low hp.
twilit arch
you need to be proactive with shields
primal relic
I do
heavy wadi
shields are worthless if they don't go out before damage
primal relic
I always cast before fight, big aoe, mid fights.
But that shield isnāt gonna tank a big AoE
heavy wadi
then I'm not sure how you're wiping in prae
twilit arch
tbh without actually being in your runs, its hard to say what's going wrong
but noct ast is capable of solo healing
especially some place like prae
heavy wadi
I've solo healed it as an sch multiple times, prae requires like, absolutely minimal healing
primal relic
And then I got try to get a group of half or lower hp to max
primal ermine
Everyone in Prae is a tank

Namazu beast tribe quests, GC turnins, Leves
opaque fiber
Well my crafter gear (my crafters are levle 60) is lets say.. bad lol
twilit arch

Hey so I have the steam version of ffxiv and I thought it was f2p up until level 60. Awhile ago my friend bought me heavensward and stormblood and I subbed for awhile but stopped. Now when I try logging in it says my license is expired.
Do I have to sub or is there a way to just be f2p?
faint flare
It's not f2p
twilit arch
trial is not free to play

well how long does that trial last? I thought it said there was no time limit
twilit arch
there is no time limit

Forever

It lasts until you register the game

gray mortar
hey guys I havent played in a while and all my saved gear slots are gone
dont suppose I can get them back or do I have to manually equip all the items again ?
strange coral
Those are saved to your pc/ps, rather than server. So if you changed devices you'd only be able to get them back by transferring from your old device.
gray mortar
oh shit
so I will have to manually equip the gear for every class and save them all again ?
faint flare
If you didn't back stuff up
strange coral
Yea. The recommended gear button can help with that though
gray mortar
Ah just get the weapon then
strange coral
And job stone for the ARR classes maybe. I don't remember that button will equip them for you.
warped furnace
While leveling BTN should I level WVR or CRP alongside it?
I'm not sure which items I gather will more useful for which class
strange coral
The crafter classes use stuff crafted by the other crafters as well. So it's recommended to level all of them together.
Also because they share gear, aside from the tools
jagged crow
Why wont the character create let me use Y'shtola?
warped furnace
Ohh okay gotcha, thank you

I keep getting the same error code but can't find it anywhere online

Why wont the character create let me use Y'shtola?
particularly simple guess, the creator probably has npc names reserved

how does that explain the 1000s of people named yshtola
strange coral
They may have been created before the restriction was added
round crag
Nah thereās people named main characters all over the place

Because the L is an I

I can confirm that the existing Y'shtola have an L, not an I.
Most of the answers I can find online indeed state that SE has become stricter over time, but never enforced the rule changes on existing characters.

Hey guys, question. So awhile back, I lost my account when stormblood was out, thanks to gmail having garbage support. I did have quite a lot unlocked, didn't really experience much of the content when it was current. So, if I bought the ultimate collection, which is on sale right now, I can save it to activate at any time? Because I wanna make a new account as a free trial one, get to 60 and do what I can then activate it for the free 30 days
strange coral
Yes you can hold on to the key for PC and activate it when you're ready or feel like you're done with the trial

Question for Zadnor, is the gear from a vendor just like the first Bozja set was, or is it from the new airship dungeon thing
faint flare
Just like the first set required coins from Castrum
It requires coins from Dalrina
Every piece costs 6 platinum, body/legs cost 9 platinum
You get 4 platinum per run + 40 mythrial (100 mythrial for 1 platinum). And there's a weekly quest for 9 platinum
jolly sorrel
PotD is also an option
leaden ginkgo
potd drops are horrible

In deep dungeons, do you get your aetherpool synced down if it's too high in floors like HoH 21-30 and PoTD 51-60?
jolly sorrel
DR is trivial though, PotD requires focus and knowing what to do
strange coral
Hard to say. It's just straight up RNG. I sometimes got several back to back, and sometimes got none for several runs. Sometimes it was like 1 every couple of runs. This was running 51-60 over and over.
leaden ginkgo
yeah i hope my rng is good and if anything i hope i get paired with people who just zoom to 100+ b/c i canāt run DR 15 times thatās just nonsense

is iLvl 190 as a crafter enough to get rolling tankard?
strange coral
I doubt it. 190 is like early SB. I would guess you need at least around 260. The beast tribe quests require at least level 70, so you're expected to be at least close to level 70 gear.

Hmm well I have iLvl 190 and I'm level 63, where would I be better getting lvl 7...
Vendors in kugane have crafting gear for higher 60s. I still recommend handking gear for when you hit 70 though. It's ilevel 350.
opaque fiber
Where do I get that? scrips?
strange coral
Yellow crafting scrip, yes
opaque fiber
How long would it take me?
I'm trying to be able to do the beast tribe quests asap since it saves time
strange coral
I'm not sure. There's plenty of sources for scrip at 70, such as the crystarium/facet deliveries and several custom delivery npcs.
opaque fiber
Hmm I see
Might be getting the iLvl 290 gear first, then start working towards the 350 gear
strange coral
I think there's 2 custom delivery npcs available at level 63.

they're all basically the same. its strongly recommended to level them all up as they share gear, and it'll cut down on gil cost as you're going to need materials from the other crafters unless you're willing to spend gil to buy the other mats you need @night oxide

You could Ng+ but you'll need to get xp somewhere

Alright, thanks alot guys. Have a great day
leaden ginkgo
The differences only show up in the small details of the really endgame raids
sage mirage
It's pretty easy to pick up a new class

And even then, all jobs are viable

should scholars be using physick at lv 76?
wintry chasm
not while questing but all the dungeons and stuff you'd still get xp for and you'll get an xp bonus. You'll still have to kinda find time outside to match up your levels every so often but it shouldn't be that bad @cunning moon
leaden ginkgo
@stable hinge I dont think so
Not SCH main, but Im sure its Emergency Tactics -> Singe target shield

Thanks for answering, but i'll probably just stick to making a new character and switch to my old at 50. Thanks!

<@!86259271070650368> Which datacenter you playing on?
I bought the game, but imma start doing the trial tonight

Is there a global chat ?
glossy flare
no
wintry chasm
Nah
faint flare
Not really
wintry chasm
You got /shout for zone-wide and NN which is serverwide but basically a helpchat for new players
celest coral
Saw complete edition going for $24, figured I might as well start over and relearn everything afresh
pseudo pulsar
Np, it makes the server more alive sometimes, but most of the time it's just spam x)
leaden ginkgo
NN can be used a global chat, but you shouldnt be saying spoilers / being bad to new players
night oxide
arent you supposed to get a race change when you buy the game/finish ARR?
i was told that by a player
wintry chasm
When you finish 2.0 MSQ
leaden ginkgo
"The Ultimate Weapon" quest
night oxide
where does one redeem the race change
wintry chasm
The race change comes in the form of an item called "fantasia"
night oxide
o
wintry chasm
Just use the fantasia, strip your character, log out, character select -> rightclick character -> edit appearance
leaden ginkgo
When you log in, you can right click your character, and recreate it
night oxide
found it
leaden ginkgo
Yeah make sure to get naked, and use another weapon in your hands
night oxide
dunno what you're talking about š

@pale tangle How so?

ill get to stripping. thank you
pale tangle
oh uh.... well the usre thing looks like ass.
also i realized im in the wrong topic
frank mountain
Can I craft better crafting gear?
wintry chasm
Yes
night oxide
Yeah make sure to get naked, and use another weapon in your hands
wdym by 'another weapon'?
frank mountain
Is it leatherworking?
wintry chasm
Is it leatherworking?
Depends on the gear
leaden ginkgo
Can I craft better crafting gear?
wintry chasm
There are like, 6 crafters that end up making equipment for crafters
leaden ginkgo
wdym by 'another weapon'?
Not sure exactly how fantasia interacts with gear, so take off all of your items, and wear another weapon, like a lvl 1 piece or something
wintry chasm
You don't need to wear another weapon
it doesn't reset your level lol
Just take off your gear
leaden ginkgo
Idk I heard something about MNK weapon
wintry chasm
night oxide
ill just hold onto my lance
topaz vine
so do bards only use bows?
wintry chasm
Correct

All jobs are locked to their weapon types.
Warriors always use axes. Dragoons always use spears. Etc.
leaden ginkgo
Unless you use glamour and mogstation
jovial quarry
Some weapons are cosmetically different however
novel verge
Is there a chart of most used classes?
leaden ginkgo
Your Dragoon can use a scythe
topaz vine
Is there a chart of most used classes?
i would like to know too
topaz vine
https://ffxivcensus.com/#class
i checked this, and there was no bard
glossy flare
that site is not 100% accurate
jovial quarry
Do note that the data from that site is... inaccurate at best and most certainly outdated.
wintry chasm
FFXIVcensus race data does suck so I assume job pop does too
novel verge
Atleast it gives a slight idea
leaden ginkgo
because they have really shit metric for active
^^^
twilit arch
plus trying to get an idea of most used jobs is not going to be very easily done
wintry chasm
Does FFlogs not have anything for this?
twilit arch
since you can have all jobs on one character and plenty of people play a variety of jobs
night oxide
what do i click to edit my char when i log out
wintry chasm
I guess not
twilit arch
even FFlogs isn't going to be ideal
jovial quarry
Manually counting logs I suppose but that's not that great either.
twilit arch
because that's specifically raiders/people parsing
leaden ginkgo
@night oxide Pretty sure you right click your character name
wintry chasm
what do i click to edit my char when i log out
rightclick your character name and then the obvious "change appearance" option I forget the wording
night oxide
you're a genius
twilit arch
at the end of the day you should play what you enjoy most
celest coral
When I first log in, will it show the DCs with the best ping for me?
leaden ginkgo
Even if what you enjoy is bad Enjoying the gameplay is most important

All jobs are viable, numbers / parses dont matter, everything works if you know what you are doing
novel verge
What do I buy as a starter? FF starter edition, shadowbringers and or endwalker? Im slightly confused
wintry chasm
It's not exactly hard to find which it is because all the data centers for a region are all in the same place basically so just pick your region @celest coral otherwise check the ping faq command that got posted
leaden ginkgo
@novel verge Starter gives you ARR + HW, Shadowbringers gives you SB + ShB, Endwalker, pretty sure it just gives access to Endwalker
