I am not recruiting, I just want to put a friends code

glossy flare
#

If you are getting recruited you don't need to put the code in

#

your friend has to

#

then you both get rewards

warm snow
#

Can't recruit or be recruited if you're on trial

glossy flare
#

at the time of you subbing you will get your code you may then hand out to others

#

don't exactly remember where though

bit curious about this
During rdm "child of lilith" the ishgard priest recognizes you as the hero of ishgard and lets you access to the tribunal files or w/e
what would he have said if i was still in hw msq

warm snow
#

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

glossy flare
#

the Stormblood job quests only become available after beating HW

warm snow
#

68 dude

opaque fiber
#

What iLvl should I get for my crafters for Shb EX trial weapons?

agile turret
# potent lava im dumb

ur not dumb rdm is unlocked at lvl 50 no matter what you dont need msq progression for it

glossy flare
#

That's not true

potent lava
#

nah
now that I remember it does lock you out after doing 60 quest

pulsar escarp
#

don't you have to do a quest to unlock the sb ones?

#

also you.. sorta do

glossy flare
#

You do need to complete the HW msq to start the SB job quests

pulsar escarp
#

pretty much

#

youc an still level but

warm snow
#

61-70 being the sb job quests

#

Not the job quests introduced in stormblood

glossy flare
#

Verholy will still be locked at 70 then 🤷

pulsar escarp
#

oh yeah speaking of which, what comes after the lvl 70 quest? I didn't bother looking too hard but I just got pld to 70 and it said the next quest would be available from jenyala or whatever

#

but like... is it just story?

glossy flare
#

or Verflare, I don't remember

pulsar escarp
#

I mean the grey text just told me lmao

glossy flare
#

ShB only has role quests

warm snow
#

Starting in shadowbringers we switch to role quests

pulsar escarp
#

it's not like I need to do granson's, done it already

glossy flare
#

And one final job quest once you have beaten 5.0

pulsar escarp
#

ah

#

that'll be it

#

does it turn up as yellow

glossy flare
#

yeah

warm snow
#

You get a lv80 sidequest once you've done that and finished 5.0 but it's pure story

pulsar escarp
#

ah yeah I did the DRK one for that

glossy flare
#

the final job quest is just a regular sidequest

pulsar escarp
#

wait

#

shit I should check the rdm and samurai ones

warm snow
pulsar escarp
glossy flare
#

yeah, they don't show up in the msq tracker

#

they do reward a title though

opaque fiber
#

Well, would white scrips gear be enough for this?

pulsar escarp
#

oh do they? I just thinik the story's neat

warm snow
pulsar escarp
#

done them already

glossy flare
#

It's the way to get the lvl 80 job title basically

pulsar escarp
#

living memory?

#

I'm gunning for healer rn but god I hate healing wearycarby

warm snow
#

Smn job quest actually gives some interesting post sb story

glossy flare
#

No, Living Memory is the title for completing all 4 role questlines

warm snow
#

Which is probably awkward if you're up to date on msq

glossy flare
#

I mean the individual job titles for each job

pulsar escarp
#

aha

#

ahhhhhh

warm snow
#

Afaik you don't need the job quests for the amaro

glossy flare
#

that's correct

warm snow
#

But do them as they're short but fun

pulsar escarp
#

they are pretty fun

warm snow
#

I got a kick out of the war one

pulsar escarp
#

everyone said pld would be a bit boring but I think it's been sweet

#

any tips for levlling a healer if you don't like healing by the way? I have astro at 71 and I'm considering bozjaing it but I might just suck it up and put myself in dungeons

#

and not worry too much about dealing damage as long as the tank's alive

warm snow
#

Ast imho, not a great first healer

pulsar escarp
#

I mean I've got it to 71 already so it's like...

#

final stretch

#

it was that or scholar

warm snow
#

In terms of individual dps ast is the weakest healer iirc so bozja is gonna be a bit of a slog

pulsar escarp
#

someone should tell my friends stackvuln they exclusively do bozja as astro

#

no clue why but I think they jsut like the class

warm snow
pulsar escarp
#

then healing in dungeons...

#

leave gcds for last?

#

you will still need them though right

twilit quarry
#

can I just buy endwalker if I'm using the ps5 free trial account?

#

confused >.<

green grail
#

no, you need the starter edition to be able to redeem expansions

warm snow
green grail
#

and even then, buying just endwalker will unlock shadowbringers and stormblood in november

warm snow
#

Like buying ski boots without skis

twilit quarry
#

yeah but it means i get full content in november yeah?

warm snow
#

Nope

twilit quarry
#

?

warm snow
#

Still need the base game

green grail
#

starter edition + endwalker, you do

twilit quarry
#

right

#

because free trial has base game + heavensward

green grail
#

free trial + endwalker -> you cant add endwalker to your acc

warm snow
#

Need the product before we can talk upgrades

twilit quarry
#

right..

#

i get it

#

thanks ;D

warm snow
#

Free trial, while incredibly generous, is still just a free trial

twilit quarry
#

oh right.. and i'll need to buy the sub

#

to play the other 2 expansions

warm snow
#

You need to own the base game

#

First

umbral nest
#

he says that but theres still an invincible barrier that wont let me proceed

#

are dungeons only done in groups?

warm snow
#

Yes

remote lintel
#

yes its a dungeon

warm snow
#

Pretty much

umbral nest
#

fuck

#

i dont have friends

warm snow
#

Just use the duty finder

remote lintel
#

you queue for it

warm snow
#

It's matchmaking

umbral nest
#

oh

warm snow
#

How did you get this far without using df?

remote lintel
#

you need to unlock your first dungeon

umbral nest
#

damn i only got guildheists unlocked

warm snow
#

Oh wait you haven't even unlocked dungeons yet

#

Need more msq progress

#

Remember EVERYTHING is locked behind the main story

umbral nest
remote lintel
#

you use it for all duties

warm snow
#

Trials, dungeons, raids unless it's high end content like extremes or savage raids you use the duty finder

jade willow
#

why can't my chocobo fly in ishgard?

remote lintel
#

the city?

#

you cant use mounts in cities

whole wasp
#

Ah you use the same thing for dungeons. First one at lvl 15. DW too much.

jade willow
#

no in places where i can ride it

remote lintel
#

because you need to unlock flying in those zones

warm snow
#

No more ez flight, now you have to work for it

jade willow
#

humm i guess it's part of msq?

warm snow
#

Well yes but actually no

remote lintel
#

no

#

the game explains it to you

#

later

warm snow
#

!faq flight

zinc orbitBOT
bleak citrus
#

Is there a way to auto disable BGM while preforming as a bard? Without going to the audio menu each time?

green grail
#

you'll get an aether compass in your key items, basically you have to find currents in the zone with it, and do some bluequest in the area, and progress enough in msq

shy vault
#

is that bug or something i finish all the missions..

bleak citrus
#

Even the raid crystal tower quests?

shy vault
#

i did the 3 raids..

#

and got the 2 crystal every run

warm snow
#

And did you turn in all the quests?

#

Iirc it'll be listed under msq I'd there's any of those left

shy vault
#

i don't have this symbol anymore..

leaden ginkgo
shy vault
shrewd cradle
#

these reset??

remote lintel
#

its the weekly reset for the revelation cap

green grail
#

the "this week" resets

warm snow
shrewd cradle
#

oh so these don't dissapear

#

cool

#

thanks

remote lintel
#

@shy vault go to your completed quests and click the chronicles of a new era: crystal tower section

snow locust
#

Anyone here good with gear progression?

remote lintel
#

and screenshot it

shy vault
glossy flare
shy vault
#

idk why it's stop show the missions..

snow locust
#

got a dillema with my gear currently.

remote lintel
#

they dont appear under the msq bar

proud willow
remote lintel
#

theyre blue quests

snow locust
#

So pretty much my gear is currently 517, i have my resistance weapon to a certain point (still need to do 15 runs of DR.) and i have two Law's Order gear on my gunbreaker with jacked critical hit/direct hit materia in it.

#

putting new and higher item level gear seems to make my general offensive properties weaker.

glossy flare
#

doesn't matter

remote lintel
#

what do you mean general offensive properties

opaque fiber
#

If I unsync an EX trial, would the chance to get the material required for the augmented weapon decrease?

remote lintel
#

substats?

glossy flare
#

higher ilvl means higher primary stats

#

therefore more dmg

#

ilvl trumps everything

remote lintel
#

@opaque fiber no

remote lintel
opaque fiber
#

Alrighty ty

polar umbra
#

I've completed everything up to where I have to pay now, https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/564956/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition-pc-download this is what I would want to purchase correct?

Take part in an epic and ever-changing FINAL FANTASY as you adventure and explore with friends from around the world.The complete edition is perfect for newcomers as it includes the award-winning FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn and the Heavensward, Stormblood and Shadowbringers expansion packs – all in one complete package!

remote lintel
#

main stat is more important

snow locust
#

um.

#

yes

remote lintel
#

@polar umbra that includes the base game and all dlc yes

bleak citrus
polar umbra
#

And this should give me 30 days as well right?

snow locust
#

free yep

remote lintel
#

yes

polar umbra
#

gotcha ty

snow locust
#

@glossy flare so i've been stressing myself over my gear for nothing

polar umbra
#

So I've checked the cost of the subscription and does it really cost $160 a year to play ffxiv or are there other cheaper options?

snow locust
#

been caught in this dilemma for a bit now.

remote lintel
#

main stat is more important than substats

glossy flare
#

Focus on ilvl first and foremost

remote lintel
#

if it has better ilvl then it will generally be better

glossy flare
#

Then you can start thinking about substats, materia and whatnot

snow locust
#

Okay, one more question. is there any gear higher than the new blade gear?

#

or should i just ignore it right now?

remote lintel
#

no its the highest weapon ilvl

#

or do you mean the armor

snow locust
#

armor

#

i'm still working on resistance stuff.

glossy flare
#

cryptlurker or the eden savage gear is better

remote lintel
#

edenmorn and augmented crypt is i530

glossy flare
#

it is 530

#

BiS generally consists of a combination of these two sources

#

Now with the last relic step as the weapon

snow locust
#

what is the il for the last weapon step?

remote lintel
#

535

glossy flare
#

535

snow locust
#

gnarly.

glossy flare
#

The eden savage weapon is also 535 mind you

#

but the relic is slightly better

snow locust
#

yeah, okay so my zeta weapon is better than my current relic.

#

Well, that's all i got.

#

thanks for helping.

obsidian patio
glacial robin
#

I haven't checked gunbreakers lore well, is there a reason they can tank even if they look squishy wearing those coats?

polar umbra
#

wew

remote lintel
#

because they have a lot of defensives @glacial robin

snow locust
#

yep

remote lintel
#

theres no lore reasons for why classes are the roles

#

they just are

snow locust
#

i can also imagine the blades are also used for defensive measures.

glossy flare
#

I mean the lore reason is that Gunbreakers, traditionally, were bodyguards

#

hence... tank

glacial robin
#

Well at least other tanks use heavy armors

remote lintel
#

so does gunbreaker

snow locust
#

^

remote lintel
#

and possibly because they were tasked with breaking through the enemy lines

#

so their job was to breach the enemy

#

so they tank

glossy flare
#

They may wear an overcoat buf if you look at the af gear they still have bracers and whatnot

#

honestly, they don't wear much less armour than the 80 drk af gear

remote lintel
#

half of warriors outfits are just like cloth

#

and fur

snow locust
#

i'm glad they added gunbreakers

#

i'm not a huge ff8 guy but man, it's so cool.

glacial robin
#

Yeah they should add more tanks tbh

opal badge
tranquil ferry
#

where can i buy sykalis greens?

opal badge
tranquil ferry
#

no

opal badge
#

I know of Chysahl, Gysahl and Mazlaya

tranquil ferry
#

i need a food that makes my chocabo faster

opal badge
#

oh for races?

tranquil ferry
#

yeah

glacial robin
#

You can increase the chocobo speed?

remote lintel
#

in racing

opal badge
#

theres acceleration and max speed i think

glossy flare
#

you can still increase the speed via riding maps though (they are NOT worth it)

tranquil ferry
#

what food and how do i get it?

#

ok ty

opal badge
#

go down to feeds

glacial robin
#

Why not worth?

tranquil ferry
#

where is that?

glossy flare
#

So just unlock flying, don't bother with riding maps

opal badge
#

scroll down to feeds, though it looks like its all purchased at the Tack and Feed trader in the Gold Saucer

opal badge
tranquil ferry
#

ok ty

shy vault
#

@remote lintel i can't find the quest...

#

and nothing in wiki ...

glossy flare
whole wasp
#

There is only one flying speed

remote lintel
#

open your completed quests and click the red tab and click "chronicles of a new era: crystal tower" in the drop down @shy vault

whole wasp
#

And its faster than 3 star land too

opal badge
#

huh I thought ive flown past other people going the same direction

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

whole wasp
#

Either ping or you were going slightly up/down comapred to them.

shy vault
glossy flare
#

Uhm... are you sure you did all the 3 raids?

#

It doesn't look like it

jade quartz
#

You haven't done them.

shy vault
#

i think so..

remote lintel
#

no you havent

jade quartz
#

You've only done the very first quest in the questline that unlocks them.

glossy flare
#

big 24 man raids?

#

lots of people?

#

you'd remember

shy vault
#

awww no

remote lintel
#

check your regular journal for "sanding it down"

shy vault
#

where is my regular journal?

jade quartz
#

Head to St. Coinach's Find east of Revenant's Toll and pick up bluequestSanding It Down

glossy flare
#

just switch over from completed to your active quests

#

that's your "regular" journal

jade quartz
#

Unless it's already in your active quests in which case just continue it

shy vault
jade quartz
#

Yeah it's not

remote lintel
#

then talk to rammbroes in mor dhona

jade quartz
#

so head to St. Coinach's Find east of Revenant's Toll and pick up bluequestSanding It Down.

glossy flare
#

and continue that questline

#

there are a few quests

shy vault
#

ty guys i will try it now

#

let me first find "rammbroes"

#

i newbie in this game

jade quartz
#

Just look for the blue quest icon in St. Coinach's Find.

shy vault
#

all of them lvl 50

#

i need to finish them all?

jade quartz
#

No

#

St. Coinach's Find, east of Revenant's Toll

#

what's up with the servers today
I'm having serious ping issues

tacit terrace
#

Could someone confirm please? Currently doing the Relic questline and have passed the first two set of memories part of the quest. Does this mean they won't drop now? (Is it possible to have them still drop if I start the quest with a secondary job then?)

green grail
#

they drop when you have the quest that requires them active in your journal

opal badge
#

might be a dumb question but can class specific gear be glamoured onto multiclass gear?

jade quartz
#

It can be glamoured on but it will still only be visible on the class it's specific to.

opal badge
#

thats...odd

astral field
#

Whats the latest in terms of house buying when a plot is vacated? Is there still a hidden timer?

jade quartz
#

If you wear the gear on another class, it will only have its base appearance.

#

Not really? Glamours are always limited to stuff that the class/race/gender you currently are would actually be able to wear.

opal badge
#

I really would like to make my multiclass crafter/gather gear look nicer

#

actually, it would kinda be cool if i could glamour it for every class but i know thats not possible

fringe bone
#

is this something special?

#

i have been in queue for like half an hour

quaint brook
#

It's part of story, so u won't find many needing to do that

fringe bone
#

so what can i do ?

quaint brook
#

U can do it unsync, or ask pf for help

#

Say u have bonus

fringe bone
#

alright ig

quaint brook
#

Ppl who need poetics will surely join, also note what the time is

#

If ur in NA servers

jade quartz
#

it's in trial roulette.

You will get a queue if you continue waiting.

PF or asking Novice Network may be faster though.

#

Where do i upgrade my 485 relic? I dont see a quest at gerolt

umbral nest
#

its not like satasha gets updated either after i finish it

#

its the same quest

slate arrow
#

Can't help you then. According to the quest, you haven't completed satansha.

alpine shadow
#

have you checked if there are anything quest marker on sastasha?

whole wasp
#

did you go in right from the start? maybe theres some issue with join in progress

obsidian patio
#

do you have another duty selected in the duty finder along with sastasha?

umbral nest
#

oh wait

#

i mightve selected two quests

obsidian patio
#

The bottom of the duty finder window shows all the duties you've selected to queue for.

sastasha doesnt have a turtle as a boss right

obsidian patio

no it doesn't.

Excuse me for this question but im returning player and im a bit lost , I bought the collector edition of shadowbringers and opened in game mail , where can i get grani mount from ? Cus he is not in the guide

glossy flare
agile laurel
#

you only receive the CE bonuses for shadowbringers

gray adder
#

I meant grani sorry

agile laurel
#

Oh

#

In that case, no idea - either verify you bought the correct edition, or wait - ingame mail can take a while

gray adder
#

I opened the ingame file already but nothing in the guide

#

Does it go to the inventory or something?

whole wasp
#

it goes into your mail

#

you can see the mail icon on the upper right near the minimap by default.

#

in game*

gray adder
#

Oh yes I found it in the inventory, i need to use the grani horn which I totally forgot how it work , sorry to bother you and thank you ElezenEmbarrassed

is there something wrong with the servers today
everything is registering after like 5-10 seconds
Even GCDs and everything is lagging

#

My WiFi is okay
Even restarted the app twice, same issue

umbral nest
#

what happens when you greed loot?

alpine shadow
#

if someone else needs it, you wont get it

#

greed is like a secondary roll which you roll when you can't need

whole wasp
#

but if nobody needs it, you get it unless another person who greeded rolled higher than you

umbral nest
#

how does the loot get decided if alot of people greed it

whole wasp
#

rolling dice

umbral nest
#

oh

warm snow
#

Need > greed

And within each of those high number wins

whole wasp
#

whoever rolled higher gets it

umbral nest
#

got it

marsh horizon
#

Where can i get lv50+ weapons?

warm snow
#

In heavensward

whole wasp
#

in heavensward city for 51+ in mor donuts with poetics for lvl 50 equipment

marsh horizon
#

Guess i need to complete story in ARR first.

whole wasp
#

yup

#

you can marketboard too

#

but its usually overpriced

warm snow
#

You won't need 51+ weapons until you're done with arr anyways

#

As all the post arr content is from patches while 50 was the level cap

What does blind do ?

agile laurel

reduces accuracy of actions

also, incidentally, makes attacks you have to look away from miss anyway

Oh nice so i should actually cast it on bosses

Uh. What context is this?

midnight tinsel
#

Whitemage

agile laurel
#

You mean bind. Not blind. Fluid aura?

midnight tinsel
#

Oof

#

Seems im blind

agile laurel
#

Fluid aura is useless, remove it from your bars and forget it exists

obsidian patio
#

Bind is useless most of the time, since the effect is removed once the enemy takes direct damage

midnight tinsel
#

Thx for putting me out of the bind

same goes for Repose, which is basically just a more effective fluid aura

hey so if I complete the msq now, does that mean I can't use story skips?

#

I'm doing ARR on a alt

#

but all I see in online store is story skips for ARR/HW/SB

warm snow
#

Iirc story skips skip the next expansion

#

So you can still use an arr story skip until you're done all the patch content

obsidian patio
#

No.

#

The skips only skip what they're specifically labelled for.

#

ARR skip completes all of ARR, ARR+HW completes all of ARR+HW, and so on.

fast talon
#

will the pre-order earrings work with the xp you get from skirmishes in bozja

obsidian patio
#

no, equipment with bonus EXP typically only works on killing enemies

fast talon
#

so just how useful are they for leveling? is the bonus from the xp from killing mobs in dungeons and the overworld a big difference?

obsidian patio
#

overworld mob experience only matters for blue mage past the first couple of levels.

#

as for dungeons, it's a big boost if you're doing the ones closest to your level since most of the dungeon experience comes from the trash

fast talon
#

that makes sense, but if youre just doing roulettes and stuff and you get a low level dungeon its not gonna have much return either, yeah?

glossy flare
#

not via the trash at least

#

the roulette bonus scales

fast talon
#

with the earrings?

glossy flare
#

I don't think so, no

ah. a thought just occurred, but they should work with trusts too then?

Sure, but trusts are just so damn slow I wouldn't recommend it

@glossy flare so i should buy the shadowbringer right? i will get another 30days of play too or i need to pay it seperate?

obsidian patio

only the base game gives subscription

iirc only the starter edition or the complete edition include the 30 free days

so yes, if you want all currently available expansions you need to buy Shadowbringers on top of your starter edition but you won't get any more free days

Method 1: Swoop to d-pad
If you need to use a button on that side, you will need to reach from the opposite hand.

For controllers with adjacent analogs, you will need to move your thumb UP. While for controllers with opposite analogs, you would typically swoop it underneath. What will feel most comfortable will vary based on your hand and finger size. Personally I find the adjacent-analog style almost unplayable, but you are not me. You are you. Try it out.

Can someone help me with regards to an xbox controller ?

#

ok so I have to swoop from button pad to the d-pad ?

gloomy mortar
#

Try the deluxe Xbox controller which has 4 extra buttons on the underside

#

I do the swoop. Reach over with my right thumb to the left d-pad. I deal by having the d-pad actions as less-frequently used actions or gcds

versed bison
#

that's what I was asking

#

thanks

gloomy mortar
#

The newest Xbox controller has 4 buttons on the underside which is easier. Buttons where your middle and ring finger are. This can replace the swoop

I have an old xbox-like controller

im on beginning of hevansgaurd... should just focus on completing the main story till end??? or should i be grinding other stuff... so many things to do...

pseudo pulsar
#

I know it's personal taste, but for the players who finished MSQ : which language did you chose ? I'm french, but for what i know the difference are the same in english

  • French : they don't have the game in front of them, so sometimes it feels like they are just "saying" the text, without the proper emotions. Not all voices fit well. You can easily follow story and background dialogues.
  • Japanese : most of the voices fit well, but sometimes it feels strange because it's not your main language. They often exaggerate all dialogs, and you can't follow like your own language

Is it worth it to keep japanese, or French/eng are solid choices and improves during MSQ ?

atomic pilot
#

Definitely English for me.

hoary kayak
#

personal preference really but JP for me 100% 🙂

atomic pilot
#

In a setting like Eorzea, the faux-old English style of speaking seems to add a bit of authentic flavor to the world I am on.

pearl mesa
#

I do MSQ in English because that's my native language, and have it set to German otherwise for practice. Also because Merlwyb's German voice is really nice.

#

Also, if you're still on ARR, the English voice cast is going to change completely.

pseudo pulsar
#

Ofc, just want to see some opinions. For example, in french Thancred has a noble 50 years old voice, who just "say" his text.
I don't know how to explain it : in anime, voices and exaggeration fit well, because most of the time, the character acts like this.
But in a game like FF14, sometimes the character seems to speak with just a bigger voice, but in japanese it feels like he is yelling too much

honest anvil
#

whichever zones sync you to lv cap +1 level

keen verge
#

Do you need to finish the MSQ to do "endgame" dungeons, raids and trials?

open coral
#

You need to finish the X.0 part of each expansion to do the endgame for that expansion.

#

So if you want to do level 80 endgame content, you need to complete 5.0 (5.3 for Eden 9-12 for story reasons).

keen verge
#

and 5.0 would be up to (& including) the Shadowbringers quest?

open coral
#

Yes. 5.0 is all of Shadowbringers that existed on release.

#

So through ||the final fight with Hades||.

keen verge
#

Alright, guess i have a nice chunk of questing to do then

pseudo pulsar
#

When you play the game in englis/french, do you miss a lot of dialogues in background ?

modest igloo
#

nah

obsidian patio
#

Generally not.

modest igloo
#

at least for ENG all the voices are there

pseudo pulsar
#

uuh i mean the opposite, i'm dumb. When you play in japenese

modest igloo
#

should still be there?

obsidian patio
#

JP is more plain on item descriptions and fate names, for the most part.

#

Since NA likes to sprinkle in references/memes

pseudo pulsar
#

I saw in the net, that there is no translation for background dialogues

modest igloo
#

yeah that's true, but its not much

#

I can think of 3 instances across the entire game where that happens

pseudo pulsar
#

Like when you speak to someone, there is the translation. But if some characters are speaking in the background, you'll just miss the whole conversation

modest igloo
#

nah

#

that never happens

open coral
#

I mean, the background conversations are just there. They're not really important, or else they wouldn't be background.

#

There's also not a whole lot of scenes (with JP audio) where there are people talking in the background anyways.

pseudo pulsar
#

Ok thanks, hard to chose the language ahah :p

open coral
#

Just pick a language you don't mind listening to the voice acting for.

modest igloo
#

at HW i was hooked on the VA

open coral
#

I play with JP audio because I like it the best, not for any story-related reasons.

with 4 BLU?

do zadnor CEs drop loathsome memories?

onyx kiln

isnt you supposed to get a barding for it when maxing out one of the roles?

scarlet kindle
#

Normal classes. You have to be in the class you got the quest in

open coral
onyx kiln
#

didnt get one for healer

scarlet kindle
#

I mean job but yeah

open coral
#

The barding goes straight into your bardings.

#

It doesn't go into your inventory.

#

White Mage barding is the healer tree one.

scarlet kindle
#

or am I misunderstanding the journal entry?

onyx kiln
#

dont see it there either

modest igloo
onyx kiln
#

it is a whitemage barding right

open coral
#

Yes

onyx kiln
#

dont have it

open coral
#

Can you screenshot the list of your bardings?

#

Any of the three categories is fine.

modest igloo
#

oh well, good to know

onyx kiln
open coral
#

And you're certain you completed the healer tree?

onyx kiln
open coral
#

I see you have the Dragoon barding, which is the dps tree one.

onyx kiln
#

can you only have 1 of them?

open coral
#

No, you can have all three.

#

I have all three.

#

But you have the Dragoon barding, which is supposed to be from the dps tree completion, but you haven't completed the dps tree.

#

So that's a little weird.

onyx kiln
#

i used a pepper

#

to reset the stats

open coral
#

Oh. That might be why then.

pearl mesa
#

Do the EXP boost earrings keep working after the expansion comes out? It's really useful for grinding.

modest igloo
#

yeah

open coral
#

It still counts as you've only completed the dps tree, not the healing tree because you'd completed the dps tree first.

modest igloo
open coral
#

I can't say 100% that's what happened, but it would make sense.

onyx kiln
#

so if i where to max out my chocobo, i would get the remaining 2 bardings then?

open coral
#

You should, yes.

onyx kiln
#

okay

strange coral
#

At rank 16 and 20 you'll be eligible for another barding

maiden breach
#

do the hw/sb raids have a 100% drop rate on the memories? i:ve been grinding the fates, but the drop rate seems terrible, so i was wondering if doing the raids are faster.

pearl mesa
#

HW is guaranteed drop.

open coral
#

HW is a guaranteed drop if you get gold rating.

pearl mesa
#

Sorry, yeah, the SB raids are guaranteed but take a while.

modest igloo
#

there are too many fates stuff thats mb

pearl mesa
#

If you go that route, I recommend not including Orbonne Monastery in your Duty Finder search, it's even longer than Ridorana and Rabanastre.

maiden breach
#

okay, thanks. i will try that out 'cause i just did 15 fates and only 1 memory dropped...

pearl mesa
#

Odds I could get a PF together to speed through the HW Fates phase? I can solo them, but it takes a while, and I don't want to deal with Bozja.

#

Yeah, sounds about right.

it took me about 150~ fates to get all the mems

do the CEs in zadnor drop loathsome memories?

No

I believe the CEs drop Bleak memories.

Zone 3 FATEs drop Loathsome.

open ember
#

In the normal Bozja front they do but Zadnor has different memories

#

Loathsome is only in Bozja Southern Front

#

But you maybe better off doing Crystal Tower raids

Heya! got some questions about the game, I am an experienced MMORPG player, so I'm wondering how this game is doing.

  1. Is there any sort of Pay to win?
  2. How is the endgame? I heard raids are amazing, but what can you do besides those?
  3. Can I only join a guild that is made on the same world I created my character on? - if so, which one should I join as a PVE EU player?
    and lastly, 4) I will be playing a healer, so I decided to play the summoner/scholar to level healer and dps class at the same time before unlocking AST. Should I level as a dps or switch to healer as soon as possible? (sorry for the amount of questions and thanks in advance for any replies)

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

modest igloo
#

play what you want, everything is good

random girder
modest igloo
#

and people want healers

shut panther
#

Is.. Your gear really bad or something?

glossy flare
#

Healers are scarce though, so you do enjoy fast queues

#

but any healer is fine

cedar lantern
#

Yeah, I'm not really interested in meta, I can usually make up the shortages of class with skill if possible, just was wondering if all are equally wanted in raids/dungeons

glossy flare
#

that's the point of the kupo post 😄

#

the meta is that there is no meta

cedar lantern
#

Sweet

#

I like that a lot.

#

Alright, Arcanist it is until I can make an AST

glossy flare
#

Ofc there are stronger and weaker jobs but the difference is so minimal that personal skill is the bigger factor

#

just fyi, Arcanist is a dps until lvl 30

where you can advance to scholar

cedar lantern

#

and ast you can only get once you get to heavensward, which is gonna be a while (but its worth it, ast is my favorite healer lol)

After making AST i'll decide if I'll respec to DPS or keep scholar. But seeing myself as I play healers only in World of Warcraft, I'll make all healers in this game as well, lmao

its a slog, we agree

but worth it in the end

How long does it take to lvl up to max when pushing only MSQ and class quests?

modest igloo
#

took me about 150 hours?

#

i read everything tho

#

and was big worth imo

green grail
#

maybe 3-4 weeks provided you're not skipping the story, which many people use to cope with how clunky the gameplay is at low levels

open coral
# cedar lantern Oh really? that's perfect!

Just be aware too that AST is going to be getting a major rework at the same time as the new healer (Sage) comes out, moving from a switch healer who can be either regen or shield focused, to a "pure" healer role with their shield focus being taken away. We don't have a ton of information beyond that though, but it's something to keep in mind.

can you do /gpose with your retainer in summoning bell?

Dam I should have held off activating my complete edition considering II have so much MSQ to do before I can do my other gathering quests, I'm level 80 in several and I'm realizing all that matters is the MSQ because I can't do any other of their quests until I'm father in the main quests. :/

do you get the armoury bonus upon hitting max Lv ?

open coral
green grail
#

no, its always active

cedar lantern

So even if your highest level job is only level 20, as long as the alt job you're leveling is under 20, you'll get armory bonus.

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ

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

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

'How much is the bonus experience?'

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

that should cover it

I dont think u can make retainers do anything

leaden ginkgo
#

I just need them to appear when I do /gpose

#

is it possible?

open coral
#

I don't think so.

strange coral
#

The only thing I can think of is to have a house and place them outside with the duty permit. But even then I don't know for sure that it works.

cedar lantern
#

Umm, the armory bonus, how does it work exactly? Not sure I understand - in my case, leveling as Arcanist, when I level a scholar, I'll have xp bonus for a summoner?

glossy flare
#

No

cedar lantern
#

Or is that for another character?

glossy flare
#

Scholar and Summoner share a level actually

open coral
#

The armory bonus is for alt jobs.

glossy flare
#

Armoury bonus applies to any job that is below your highest level job

open coral
#

So AST will benefit from it when you pick that up, since your SMN/SCH level will be at least 50, and AST starts at 30.

cedar lantern
#

Ahh gotcha, so if I have a char that has ACN leveled to 80, I can then level another job on the same character?

glossy flare
#

you can level all jobs on just one character

fading aurora
#

U can level all classes on one character

glossy flare
#

there really is almost no reason to have multiple characters

fading aurora
#

No alts needed

glossy flare
#

can do it all on just one

cedar lantern
#

Hmmm, what's the benefit of having multiple characters then?

open coral
#

You can pick up alt jobs on the same character once you've completed your level 10 job quest.

fading aurora
#

Lmao cypher

open coral
#

There isn't one

modest igloo
#

alts aren't the best in this game

glossy flare
#

Main reason to create multiple characters is roleplay

open coral
#

There is literally no benefit to having more than one character.

glossy flare
#

But if you aren't into that then don't bother

modest igloo
#

also for playing on different datacenters or raiding with multiple statics

cedar lantern
#

Ohhhh... I see! How about the gear management? I suppose you need a different gear for each job? Do you have enough storage, or how do you work around it?

modest igloo
#

most jobs share gear with other classes of the same type

glossy flare
#

gear has its own inventory which is pretty sizable, but some jobs also share armour

modest igloo
#

inventory management is a good skill to have tho

#

it can get a bit cramped

cedar lantern
#

Yeah, but when you minmax, you'll usually have different items for each job

open coral
cedar lantern
#

or at least that's how it works in most games

open coral
#

Melee dps gear breaks down a little more into three separate sections.

cedar lantern
#

never played FF before

glossy flare
#

with other jobs you may have more variety

modest igloo
#

not too much, most people raid on one-two jobs, MAYBE 3

glossy flare
#

Yeah, you usually have one or two main jobs and then whatever you wanna play on the side

#

There is a nice mount for getting all the jobs to 80 though

cedar lantern
#

Well, in my case I'll be making all 4 healers, then a tank

glossy flare
#

(only 3 healers until november 😄 )

cedar lantern
#

Haha, yeah, I'm talking future already

modest igloo
#

you'll also have a DPS with SMN so thats good

#

1 one each class helps you know more about your own

cedar lantern
#

Yeah, for sure, it's important to know about each role

Whats the best place to farm Haunting memory of the dying and Vexatious Memory of the dying? Fates or the raids?

open coral
#

Gear also has its own hammerspace inventory, being able to hold up to 30 pieces per gear slot (with weapon and ring spaces being increased in November)

glossy flare
#

Rings get the increase because you have 2 ring slots

#

So it can get crowded in there

leaden ginkgo
cedar lantern
#

How good is gearing in the endgame? Is it pure rng, or can you target the items you want/need?

open coral
glossy flare
#

barely any rng beyond people rolling for stuff as usual

cedar lantern
#

As an example - in WoW it's super annoying and as I'm trying to minmax my character, I didn't get to upgrade for 2 months now...

open coral
#

It's WAY better than WoW

#

Can I use my blu to farm fates for resistance weapons?

cedar lantern
#

I'm falling in love already

glossy flare
#

You run the raid, you roll for stuff, at some point you're going to get it. What drops from which raid is also consistent so you just keep running it

open coral
#

You can 100% gear out a whole character in max level gear within like, 4 weeks if you farm max tomes and do Savage on the regular.

modest igloo
#

get that bs wow shit outta here, ff14 respects your time

cedar lantern
#

That's what I like to hear

glossy flare
#

At some point you're just gonna win the roll for what you need. Or, if you are running with a static, you can just coordinate with your buddies

civic spoke
cedar lantern
#

Thanks 🙂

#

Also, how long does it take to level another jobs after you hit lvl 80 on one?

open coral
#

You can do it in less than a week

#

!faq altlevelguide

zinc orbitBOT
glossy flare
#

The guide does assume you have buddies to help out, just fyi

open coral
#

Even without buddies, it's still fast.

glossy flare
#

but even then, you can do it in 2 weeks at a more relaxed pace

#

there's a mount for having all the jobs at 80, go get it

open coral
#

Even if you only do roulettes to level, you can still get max level in like, 3-4 weeks.

Which world should I pick?

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.

Notable worlds:

  • Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
  • Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
  • Moogle (Large amount of French players)
  • Shiva (Large amount of German players)
    ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
open coral
#

Don't be intimidated.

modest igloo
#

there's every style on every server

#

dont feel too commited to any at first, find what you like

open coral
#

Just pick a world. Statics are usually not FC-based, so even if you pick an FC that doesn't do endgame raiding, you can still find people to run with.

#

Or you can play solo.
