If you are getting recruited you don't need to put the code in
your friend has to
then you both get rewards
Same difference
Can't recruit or be recruited if you're on trial
at the time of you subbing you will get your code you may then hand out to others
don't exactly remember where though

yup
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
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
That's impossible
the Stormblood job quests only become available after beating HW
!quest child of lilith
68 dude
What iLvl should I get for my crafters for Shb EX trial weapons?
ur not dumb rdm is unlocked at lvl 50 no matter what you dont need msq progression for it
That's not true
nah
now that I remember it does lock you out after doing 60 quest
That's where you're wrong kiddo
You do need to complete the HW msq to start the SB job quests
Verholy will still be locked at 70 then 🤷
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?
or Verflare, I don't remember
N/A
Lol
I mean the grey text just told me lmao
ShB only has role quests
Starting in shadowbringers we switch to role quests
it's not like I need to do granson's, done it already
And one final job quest once you have beaten 5.0
yeah
You get a lv80
once you've done that and finished 5.0 but it's pure story
ah yeah I did the DRK one for that
Anyone knows?
the final job quest is just a regular 
No such thing as too much

Well, would white scrips gear be enough for this?
oh do they? I just thinik the story's neat
Make sure you do your physical and caster role quests first
done them already
It's the way to get the lvl 80 job title basically
Smn job quest actually gives some interesting post sb story
No, Living Memory is the title for completing all 4 role questlines
Which is probably awkward if you're up to date on msq
I mean the individual job titles for each job
Afaik you don't need the job quests for the amaro
that's correct
But do them as they're short but fun
they are pretty fun
I got a kick out of the war one
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
Ast imho, not a great first healer
I mean I've got it to 71 already so it's like...
final stretch
it was that or scholar

In terms of individual dps ast is the weakest healer iirc so bozja is gonna be a bit of a slog
someone should tell my friends
they exclusively do bozja as astro
no clue why but I think they jsut like the class

then healing in dungeons...
leave gcds for last?
you will still need them though right

no, you need the starter edition to be able to redeem expansions
You can buy it but you can't use it
and even then, buying just endwalker will unlock shadowbringers and stormblood in november
Like buying ski boots without skis
yeah but it means i get full content in november yeah?
Nope
?
Still need the base game
starter edition + endwalker, you do
free trial + endwalker -> you cant add endwalker to your acc
Need the product before we can talk upgrades
Free trial, while incredibly generous, is still just a free trial
he says that but theres still an invincible barrier that wont let me proceed
are dungeons only done in groups?
Yes
yes its a dungeon
Pretty much
Just use the duty finder
you queue for it
It's matchmaking
oh
How did you get this far without using df?
you need to unlock your first dungeon
damn i only got guildheists unlocked
Oh wait you haven't even unlocked dungeons yet
Need more msq progress
Remember EVERYTHING is locked behind the main story
no i did use it a couple times i didnt know u could use it for dungeons too tho
you use it for all duties
Trials, dungeons, raids unless it's high end content like extremes or savage raids you use the duty finder
why can't my chocobo fly in ishgard?
Ah you use the same thing for dungeons. First one at lvl 15. DW too much.
no in places where i can ride it
because you need to unlock flying in those zones
No more ez flight, now you have to work for it
humm i guess it's part of msq?
Well yes but actually no
!faq flight
Is there a way to auto disable BGM while preforming as a bard? Without going to the audio menu each time?
you'll get an aether compass in your key items, basically you have to find currents in the zone with it, and do some
in the area, and progress enough in msq
is that bug or something i finish all the missions..
Even the raid crystal tower quests?
And did you turn in all the quests?

Iirc it'll be listed under msq I'd there's any of those left
i don't have this symbol anymore..
You have to finish all the crystal tower series quest...I did it this morning
these reset??
its the weekly reset for the revelation cap
the "this week" resets
The revelations tomes which only matter at endgame, you can only get 450 a week
@shy vault go to your completed quests and click the chronicles of a new era: crystal tower section
Anyone here good with gear progression?
and screenshot it
i will check here : https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Crystal_Tower_Quests
Just ask, if someone knows the answer they will answer
idk why it's stop show the missions..
got a dillema with my gear currently.
they dont appear under the msq bar
the /bgm command will toggle the bgm, and you can also set a macro to do that. there's no auto-mute though
theyre blue quests
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.
doesn't matter
what do you mean general offensive properties
If I unsync an EX trial, would the chance to get the material required for the augmented weapon decrease?
substats?
@opaque fiber no
not always
Alrighty ty
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!
main stat is more important
@polar umbra that includes the base game and all dlc yes
Ah ok, will work with that then. Thanks 
And this should give me 30 days as well right?
free yep
yes
gotcha ty
@glossy flare so i've been stressing myself over my gear for nothing
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?
been caught in this dilemma for a bit now.
main stat is more important than substats
Focus on ilvl first and foremost
if it has better ilvl then it will generally be better
Then you can start thinking about substats, materia and whatnot
Okay, one more question. is there any gear higher than the new blade gear?
or should i just ignore it right now?
cryptlurker or the eden savage gear is better
edenmorn and augmented crypt is i530
it is 530
BiS generally consists of a combination of these two sources
Now with the last relic step as the weapon
what is the il for the last weapon step?
535
535
gnarly.
yeah, okay so my zeta weapon is better than my current relic.
Well, that's all i got.
thanks for helping.
That’s as cheap as subscription gets.
I haven't checked gunbreakers lore well, is there a reason they can tank even if they look squishy wearing those coats?
wew
magic
because they have a lot of defensives @glacial robin
yep
i can also imagine the blades are also used for defensive measures.
I mean the lore reason is that Gunbreakers, traditionally, were bodyguards
hence... tank
Well at least other tanks use heavy armors
so does gunbreaker
^
and possibly because they were tasked with breaking through the enemy lines
so their job was to breach the enemy
so they tank
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
Yeah they should add more tanks tbh
Is there anything that looks like https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Alchemist's_Set that can be glamoured onto all Crafter classes?
where can i buy sykalis greens?
are you sure of that name?
no
I know of Chysahl, Gysahl and Mazlaya
i need a food that makes my chocabo faster
oh for races?
yeah
You can increase the chocobo speed?
in racing
theres acceleration and max speed i think
you can still increase the speed via riding maps though (they are NOT worth it)
go down to feeds
Why not worth?
where is that?
Flying is always at max speed and way easier to unlock
So just unlock flying, don't bother with riding maps
scroll down to feeds, though it looks like its all purchased at the Tack and Feed trader in the Gold Saucer
I think it boosts flying speeds too
ok ty
It does not
open your completed quests and click the red tab and click "chronicles of a new era: crystal tower" in the drop down @shy vault
And its faster than 3 star land too
Either ping or you were going slightly up/down comapred to them.
You haven't done them.
i think so..
no you havent
You've only done the very first quest in the questline that unlocks them.
awww no
check your regular journal for "sanding it down"
where is my regular journal?
Head to St. Coinach's Find east of Revenant's Toll and pick up
Sanding It Down
just switch over from completed to your active quests
that's your "regular" journal
Unless it's already in your active quests in which case just continue it
Yeah it's not
then talk to rammbroes in mor dhona
so head to St. Coinach's Find east of Revenant's Toll and pick up
Sanding It Down.
Just look for the blue quest icon in St. Coinach's Find.
No
St. Coinach's Find, east of Revenant's Toll
You're in Revenant's Toll
head east out of town
to the archaeology camp
!quest Sanding it Down
Rammbroes wishes to proceed with the shaping of the flawless crystals.

A Performance for the Ages
yes
what's up with the servers today
I'm having serious ping issues
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?)
they drop when you have the quest that requires them active in your journal
might be a dumb question but can class specific gear be glamoured onto multiclass gear?
It can be glamoured on but it will still only be visible on the class it's specific to.
thats...odd
Whats the latest in terms of house buying when a plot is vacated? Is there still a hidden timer?
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.
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
yep.
It's part of story, so u won't find many needing to do that
so what can i do ?
alright ig
Ppl who need poetics will surely join, also note what the time is
If ur in NA servers

The place where all the Viera chill?
Ah okay, must never go there in the day then lol
the zone in general
And na I aint trolling, just love the music :p
basically anywhere outside of the towns
The nighttime theme is a piano version of the same tune
Oh yeah it is
I think the nighttime music is always a piano version of the daytime music isn't it? Like yanxia
it sounds like it yes
generally yeah
Isn’t the viera one slightly different? Oh yeah only if you’re in the city
as soon as you leave then it’s lahee

just need my daily dose of la hee

Don't worry, I've seen it lol
the OG himself
I love Soken so much
see it again

Is the adventurer in need bonus considered at time of queuing or actually getting in the duty?
on queue i believe
Alright, ty
You haven't entered satasha and defeated all duty objectives
but i did
Where do i upgrade my 485 relic? I dont see a quest at gerolt
Can't help you then. According to the quest, you haven't completed satansha.
have you checked if there are anything quest marker on sastasha?
did you go in right from the start? maybe theres some issue with join in progress
do you have another duty selected in the duty finder along with sastasha?
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
no it doesn't.
its the ever first dungeon
Are there any relics besides Anima which use poetics? I need to burn them
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
not to the extent anima relics do
syldra is not the CE for shadowbringers. you'd need to buy the digital upgrade for the Stormblood collectors' edition to get that
you only receive the CE bonuses for shadowbringers
I meant grani sorry
Oh
In that case, no idea - either verify you bought the correct edition, or wait - ingame mail can take a while
I opened the ingame file already but nothing in the guide
Does it go to the inventory or something?
it goes into your mail
you can see the mail icon on the upper right near the minimap by default.
in game*
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 
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
what happens when you greed loot?
if someone else needs it, you wont get it
greed is like a secondary roll which you roll when you can't need
but if nobody needs it, you get it unless another person who greeded rolled higher than you
how does the loot get decided if alot of people greed it
rolling dice
oh
Need > greed
And within each of those high number wins
whoever rolled higher gets it
got it
Where can i get lv50+ weapons?
In heavensward
in heavensward city for 51+ in mor donuts with poetics for lvl 50 equipment
Guess i need to complete story in ARR first.
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
yea, you dont need those equipment if you havent cleared ARR yet anyway
get an augmented ironworks weapon after you finish arr and it’ll last you until halfway through heavensward (lvl 54 ish)
Okie thanks, i just reach the part where Waking Sands ||got OOF'd||
you’re still a while off then
keep at it
How is performance on a regular PS4?
Pretty decent for the most part, but I heavily recommend limiting battle effects of people that aren't you to reduce strain
do we have a brown cane weapon effect for whm ?
How do I view another players stats? Like how many jobs they have levelled and stuff
what do you mean by a weapon effect?
right-click them in the party menu/player search menu
hi GM. When do daily BQ reset ?
!daily
thanks vis
If you set server time to be visible its 3pm
ah k
does warrior use spell speed?
no
What does blind do ?
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?
Whitemage
You mean bind. Not blind. Fluid aura?
Fluid aura is useless, remove it from your bars and forget it exists
Bind is useless most of the time, since the effect is removed once the enemy takes direct damage
Thx for putting me out of the bind
same goes for Repose, which is basically just a more effective fluid aura
is there any reason i should keep the mettle instead of spending 20mil to upgrade stats?
Is there a command to sync with other people's dances?
Is fète token mount always the same or does it change every week or something?
As far as I can tell, there's no reason to stay capped.
stays the same.
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
Iirc story skips skip the next expansion
So you can still use an arr story skip until you're done all the patch content
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.
will the pre-order earrings work with the xp you get from skirmishes in bozja
no, equipment with bonus EXP typically only works on killing enemies
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?
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
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?
with the earrings?
I don't think so, no
ah. a thought just occurred, but they should work with trusts too then?
yep
Sure, but trusts are just so damn slow I wouldn't recommend it
which ones are shadow of mhach alliance raids?
not for leveling purposes at least
Heavensward
the lvl 60 ones
where can I unlock them?
jesus i just realized i don't have them unlocked lol
yeah, Ishgard in the Pillars
under heavensward i only have Alexander raids
quest is called "Sky Pirates"
okay ima go check
for samurai what set should i go
fending, slaying, aimning
Slaying
ty
yes
slaying for accessories and striking for left side
Where to ask to join a Free Company?
How often should i be checking for plots to be available?
Thanks!
Still every hour?
more often if you can, but yeah.
I missed an opportunity for one RIP 😂 so looking for another
Can people still transfer the permission rights to you, say if i knew someone and offered more than what they purchased the plot for, could they sell it directly to me?
if i use the intelligent impressions can i read the equipt book or just a random book
I just wanna confirm something, even if it sounds stupid. If this is what my mogstation account says, that means I should buy from the US SE store, yeah?
yes
Okay. For some reason I get auto-redirected to EU and I gotta manually set it to US in the browser.
it's a generic book
only if it's an FC house. You can't transfer ownership of a personal house
i thought i could read the mimesis lux 
How do i travel to the second tab of plots in an areav
I.e get to plot 55 on the second tab
Use the aether net in the ward to go to subdivision
You can't go there from the 'outside' as it were
My hero
i bought the starter edition, and im lvl 50, i should buy shadowbringer, or i can pre-purchase endwalker and get the rest of the dlc?
EW will include SB and ShB but you won't get it until EW releases
however the starter edition goes up to lvl 60 and includes Heavensward
you can still keep playing for quite a bit
My friend preorders and he's having any issue
He can't seem to get his pre-order code to be accepted on the mogstation - it keeps saying "code entered invalid"

@finite swift Choose "character configuration". A window will appears. At the top left of the window there is a switch to choose gamepad or keyboard.
Should be in settings
U tried clicking it on the controler to desktop?
hmm
Mind screenshotting it
I'm not on mine cuz at work but
Hmm..
Lemme check if I can find something
Question about chocobos; what would you say is the leveling priority for their skills? Cuz leveling them ain't exactly quick.
Tried restring everything back to default? @finite swift
basically tank tree is last priority. Healer or DPS first or do a mix of them
The healer tree is the most useful.
ignore tank, choose whatever other tree you like first (I recommend healer)
Can also grab some dps skills if you want to.
Eventually you can max out all three skill lines but it takes a LONG time.
Okay cool
The chocobo tank tree is just really horrible, but eventually you have the others maxed anyway
Took me like six years of playing and using the chocobo casually
I thought so. The attack tree's stun seemed pretty nice, too.
Do you prefer console or the pc controls? I normally use controller cuz pc I gotta do all these extra keys which
Wait wrong channel
my bad
And shared fates in Novrandt, along with the ShB relic fates seemed like a good excuse.
@glossy flare so i should buy the shadowbringer right? i will get another 30days of play too or i need to pay it seperate?
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
Gotta set up a sub
How much do savage strats vary across servers?
I'm trying to turn in some stage 1 ishgardian restoration stuff for some blacksmith exp but it wont let me even tho i have it in my inventory, is it just not possible to turn it in anymore?
ty very much!
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 ?
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
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
What iLvl is the relic from this quest?
Also, what is the best way to go about these?
whats the best mount to get from the event shop??
until when is the sale of the complete edition?
None, it’s a one-time step between the actual upgrades.
Completely up to you, you can look up videos of them to see how their music is and how they move.
Does it work to do the FATEs as blue mage or would I have to be on Paladin?
BLU works
are all of em flying mount...
All mounts fly.
sheeeesh
Every mount flys if you unlock it for that zone after lvl 50 ( completing ARR)
ty ty
The head would probably be hardest to get the normal way, but the kamuys are locked behind some fairly difficult boss fights.
If you do them as a full party of level 80 players they’re all a breeze

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...
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 ?
Definitely English for me.
personal preference really but JP for me 100% 🙂
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.
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.
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
whichever zones sync you to lv cap +1 level
Do you need to finish the MSQ to do "endgame" dungeons, raids and trials?
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).
and 5.0 would be up to (& including) the Shadowbringers quest?
Yes. 5.0 is all of Shadowbringers that existed on release.
So through ||the final fight with Hades||.
Alright, guess i have a nice chunk of questing to do then
When you play the game in englis/french, do you miss a lot of dialogues in background ?
nah
Generally not.
at least for ENG all the voices are there
uuh i mean the opposite, i'm dumb. When you play in japenese
should still be there?
JP is more plain on item descriptions and fate names, for the most part.
Since NA likes to sprinkle in references/memes
I saw in the net, that there is no translation for background dialogues
yeah that's true, but its not much
I can think of 3 instances across the entire game where that happens
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
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.
Ok thanks, hard to chose the language ahah :p
Just pick a language you don't mind listening to the voice acting for.
at HW i was hooked on the VA
I play with JP audio because I like it the best, not for any story-related reasons.
ARR is a bit rough around at first but now i cant imagine not using the eng va's
its all preferance
im a dub over sub guy lol
quick question! brand new toon, accidentally said controller instead of kb/mouse but now idk how to put it back
x_x
Open the, I think it's System Settings, and click the toggle to switch between kbm and controller.
Character config > click the keyboard/controller toggle switch in the corner
oo char confihg
Hi, is this the right channel to ask a question about KupoBot? If not, what would be the right channel? Thank you!
tyhank you!
#discord-feedback for kupo-specific queries
Ah, yeah, I can never remember which one has the control settings.
I like french voices too, but some of them are weirds. Like thancred a max 30y old man, with a "noble" 50y old voice with 0 emotion in it. Papalymo has an 'adult' voice ect
ikr?
Thank you!
papalymo is like 47
Like I said, pick the voices that you don't mind listening to. I don't do the EN voices because I find about half of them to be incredibly annoying for various reasons. So I go with JP audio because the majority of the voices don't bother me.
Hello.. What's the best dungeon to do for the last step of the 5.55 relic?
still trying to figure that out, maybe PF has the answer?
how many points does a chocobo need to max out 1 of the 3 roles?
The one I saw so far is Hell's Lid but just checking. Thanks 😄
10! (10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1)
So 55
Around 10 minutes
with 4 BLU?
do zadnor CEs drop loathsome memories?
isnt you supposed to get a barding for it when maxing out one of the roles?
Normal classes. You have to be in the class you got the quest in
Yes. You get a barding for maxing out each of the roles.
didnt get one for healer
I mean job but yeah
The barding goes straight into your bardings.
It doesn't go into your inventory.
White Mage barding is the healer tree one.
or am I misunderstanding the journal entry?
dont see it there either
weird, thats never been a part of this relic before
it is a whitemage barding right
Yes
dont have it
And you're certain you completed the healer tree?
I see you have the Dragoon barding, which is the dps tree one.
can you only have 1 of them?
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.
Oh. That might be why then.
Do the EXP boost earrings keep working after the expansion comes out? It's really useful for grinding.
yeah
It still counts as you've only completed the dps tree, not the healing tree because you'd completed the dps tree first.
they only stop being useful after lvl 80
I can't say 100% that's what happened, but it would make sense.
so if i where to max out my chocobo, i would get the remaining 2 bardings then?
You should, yes.
okay
At rank 16 and 20 you'll be eligible for another barding
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.
HW is guaranteed drop.
HW is a guaranteed drop if you get gold rating.
Sorry, yeah, the SB raids are guaranteed but take a while.
there are too many fates stuff thats mb
If you go that route, I recommend not including Orbonne Monastery in your Duty Finder search, it's even longer than Ridorana and Rabanastre.
okay, thanks. i will try that out 'cause i just did 15 fates and only 1 memory dropped...
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.
I need 60 each of the little fuckers for all the Resistance weapons I want, so it's gonna be a while.
what resistance lvl can i access zandors supplier?
It's not level, it's whether you have the coins that drop from Dalriada.
ohh, thanks
any healer free rn 🥺😩
Not that kind of questions channel
do the CEs in zadnor drop loathsome memories?
No
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
yeah or just castrum i think it gave 5 too
Yes

There's a new weekly quest for castrum so you've a decent chance of getting a castrum run done
Just started my trial , should u be doing every single side quest there is ? Every mmo would be like this but since ffxiv have multiple jobs, should i save them for other jobs ?
Yellow quests are ignorable
Completely
They're just lore
Much more efficient ways to level alts
unlock stuff so do them
Is it possible to make it so that hotbars are shared between all characters someone has? So a main and alt would share the same hotbar for the same job?
what does this mean? like i can't access floor 100 or something?
Heya! got some questions about the game, I am an experienced MMORPG player, so I'm wondering how this game is doing.
- Is there any sort of Pay to win?
- How is the endgame? I heard raids are amazing, but what can you do besides those?
- 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)
!faq newplayertips
not really, you can make a hotbar shared between jobs on one character, if you want to copy from one character to another you have to copy the config files in documents/my games/ffxiv
Guess I'll do that, thank you for your response
- No.
- There's a lot. You can level alt jobs, farm mounts/glamour/cosmetic items, etc.
- Yes, you can only join a FC on your server.
- All jobs can easily solo overworld content. Healers in XIV are not pure healers. Even in group content healers are also expected to do damage, and the class designs reflect this.
Thank you guys 🙂
and server choice doesn't matter, since virtually all content is cross-world in a datacenter, so join any world on chaos or light, the europe DCs
if you have any more questions, let us know!
we're here to help, bc i'd rather do this than work
Ok peeps, how long will it take me to get the 180 things I need for the last 3 quest. Planning on no living this weekend.
i've done about nine hours of fate farming and other stuff, and i'm 75% of the way there
if you ignore dalriada prolly 10 hours max
What's dalriada
new CLL
One difference from other mmos is that it's a final fantasy game first mmo second. EVERYTHING is locked behind main story progression
A couple hours in Zadnor got me all the skirmish items, and like 1/3 to half the CE items. After that, it was like 1-2 hours of raid grind. BLU makes it much faster, and I'd take the opportunity to try and get the Eden's Promise card.
No blue but I'm a tank hopefully that help me lol
It'll help with queue times if you decide to DF instead of PF
for raids ngl dps are always pretty fast and loads of people do it so the issue isn't really major
Do you need to be 71 or 80 to get a resistance weapon for your job?
80
80
80
Okay thank you!
No point giving you a weapon you can't even equip
You can pick up the quest on an 80 so the items drop then abandon it and take it on the other class once you hit 80
You need the first stage to do any subsequent step and need to be lv80 to get that
Why are people saying lfg in bozja ?
Looking for group
Yes but group for what ?
There's no reason not to be in a group in bozja
You share drops
Clusters and fragments
cluster farms, fragment farms, fate farms
Ahhh thanks
There's no downside and several upsides
and if you die someone will raise you 
I have read a bunch of Scholar guides already, but they pretty much only deal with high-level abilities, is there anything more I can do at low level than spam Physick with the occacional adloc to preload some healing? Contrary to what google says, my faerie doesn't seem to heal that much (probably because my gear is still garbage?)? (In dungeons)
^^
haha, yeah, same, that's why I'm lurking in this discord, lmao. How is it with groups and healers? Are healers scarce in this game as well and people cherry pick from between the classes? Or can I just play any healer? 🙂
Abuse whispering dawn low level
but to answer your question, no there isn't much more to low lvl sch
!faq meta
play what you want, everything is good
healers are scarcer than dps and tank, so they get queue privilege, but all healers are equally useful
and people want healers
Is.. Your gear really bad or something?
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
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
its almost like our devs actually balance the game and make every job fun and rewarding
where you can advance to scholar
yeah, I know
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
Heya, has anyone bought butterfinger stuff on instacart and used the emailed receipt from instacart to redeem? Or used email receipts in general?
Just beat the first lvl 1-50 quests and got my flying and all that, how much longer until I get access to Ishgard (aka, able to do my other fishing quests lol)?
try them all out, there's even a new one coming out in November!
like 80 more quests, patch 2.1-2.5 content
Oh really? that's perfect!
Uhh, now besides work, where do I put my priorities? gf/FF14? tough one
It'll be lvl 70 at base so if you're doing content around that level you can start as one when it drops
Oof okay.
How long does it take to lvl up to max when pushing only MSQ and class quests?
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
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 ?
You get the armory bonus when leveling any job under the level of your highest level job.
no, its always active
Seeing as it takes over 100hrs to level to the max, the rework might come before I start leveling AST, lol. Thanks for the heads up
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.
it's a 100 % bonus right?
100% until level 70, 50% from 70-80
!faq armourybonus
'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
yep thanks
anyone know?
I dont think u can make retainers do anything
I don't think so.
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.
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?
No
Or is that for another character?
Scholar and Summoner share a level actually
SMN and SCH share xp because they're both ACN at base.
The armory bonus is for alt jobs.
Armoury bonus applies to any job that is below your highest level job
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.
Ahh gotcha, so if I have a char that has ACN leveled to 80, I can then level another job on the same character?
you can level all jobs on just one character
U can level all classes on one character
there really is almost no reason to have multiple characters
No alts needed
can do it all on just one
Hmmm, what's the benefit of having multiple characters then?
You can pick up alt jobs on the same character once you've completed your level 10 job quest.
Lmao cypher
There isn't one
alts aren't the best in this game
Main reason to create multiple characters is roleplay
There is literally no benefit to having more than one character.
But if you aren't into that then don't bother
also for playing on different datacenters or raiding with multiple statics
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?
most jobs share gear with other classes of the same type
gear has its own inventory which is pretty sizable, but some jobs also share armour
Yeah, but when you minmax, you'll usually have different items for each job
Gear aside from weapons is mostly shared among role types - healer, tank, physical ranged dps, magical ranged dps.
or at least that's how it works in most games
Melee dps gear breaks down a little more into three separate sections.
never played FF before
That depends, right now for example 3 out of 4 tanks use the same gear (except for weapon of course)
with other jobs you may have more variety
not too much, most people raid on one-two jobs, MAYBE 3
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
Well, in my case I'll be making all 4 healers, then a tank
(only 3 healers until november 😄 )
Haha, yeah, I'm talking future already
you'll also have a DPS with SMN so thats good
1 one each class helps you know more about your own
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?
Do both
Fates while queing
IC
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)
Rings get the increase because you have 2 ring slots
So it can get crowded in there
I see, will give that a try, thanks!
How good is gearing in the endgame? Is it pure rng, or can you target the items you want/need?
You can basically target what you need.
barely any rng beyond people rolling for stuff as usual
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...
It's WAY better than WoW
Can I use my blu to farm fates for resistance weapons?
I'm falling in love already
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
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.
get that bs wow shit outta here, ff14 respects your time
Yes
That's what I like to hear
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
Thank the gods. Should be ez cheese
Thanks 🙂
Also, how long does it take to level another jobs after you hit lvl 80 on one?
The guide does assume you have buddies to help out, just fyi
Even without buddies, it's still fast.
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
Even if you only do roulettes to level, you can still get max level in like, 3-4 weeks.
buddies? which dlc is that?

Is there a way for non steam players to check how many hours they played on pc
/playtime
Is there a way to create an account?
I tried clearing cache
Using migration
Still unable to create one. Ends up in error after inserting verification code
how can i let my character idle watching the book

you're a scholar or summoner I assume?

Make sure to turn off the weapon sheathe timer.
there is a book reading emote, just wanted to make sure

Is there a way to transfer a character between worlds?
yeah, for cash
Full transfers are paid
!faq worldtransfer
Make sure to follow the steps in order to complete transfer service:
World Transfer Service
18$ iirc
As I mentioned already, I really want to find a great guild as it is locked to the world, so I'm intimidated by the world choice, lol
!faq worldpick
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
Don't be intimidated.
