silent shoal
#

hi, im new to tanking and would like to ask do u use buffs (like dmg reduc) whenever they are off cd? or do u save them for when there is tankbuster?

twilit arch
fading helm
#

so what does it mean to join

twilit arch
#

you basically just get access to a place where you can post messages

fading helm
#

oh

twilit arch
#

NA/EU really don't...use it much

#

JP is more into those things

fading helm
#

is there a way to find an FC in the game

#

like search up the name

twilit arch
#

!faq communityfinder

fading helm
#

so lets say i found one i like

#

how do i join lol

twilit arch
#

if they have a house, can find the house and apply to the fc thru the plaque

#

or search for someone in the fc to apply thru their profile

shut panther
#

generally what I'm doing is using a 20/30 at the beginning of a trash pull then reprisal as it ends, then the 20/30 I didn't use on the previous pull at the start of the next

#

with the short cd one thrown in whereever, and arms' length or camo thrown in depending on how decent the group dps is

#

So uh what level roughly do I get my first mount!

Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

another question to y'all. If i buy the european version of this game, I can still play it in canada right ?

manic rune
#

global version can play on any datacenter

#

Guys, on my Gladiator, whats better, Block rate or block strength??

unless you live in china or korea it doesn't matter

How do you get abilities on CD to display the number of seconds till it's backup instead of the little circle?

versed bison
#

hey, can someone help me. I am not able to select "India" when asked to select a country

#

Lol

#

is it "better" for raiding

#

for clarity

shut panther
#

I find the game unplayable if I don't set others to limited, personally

spiral inlet
#

whats the option for that?

robust crow
#

how do you get the level 70 blue mage mirage set

versed bison
#

can someone help me pls, it's regarding payment

shut panther
versed bison
#

I am gonna buy the complete edition of ffxiv and when I went to the select country option there is no "India"

whole herald
#

Maybe there is an Other option?

versed bison
#

nope

spiral inlet
#

Thanks

versed bison
#

all european countries are mentioned

shut panther
#

there's a very good chance india isn't an officially supported country

versed bison
#

I dunno whether to use a friend's UK address

versed bison
shut panther
#

which I think, but don't quote me on this because I really don't know, people usually use the european site in this case

versed bison
#

I dunno what to do tbh, will it affect my ability to play as I am gonna go to canada in 2022 as well

#

like I am in india and it redirects me to the eu store of square enix

mental yew
#

The playing itself won't be an issue

#

It's the payment processing side that's a bit of a mystery

versed bison
#

I mean will it care for my address when asked for payment ?

#

like I gave my indian adress and say that I am from italy

#

will it affect anything

#

also what will happen if I bought the british version of the game and activated the code ?

split briar
#

@versed bison you can't get india option you pay in euros

#

And play in usa or EU

mental yew
#

I think someone else is gonna have to answer this because I live in Europe so it's all very easy to pay for on my end

versed bison
#

this is what mogstation tells me

wintry chasm
versed bison
#

then i gotta pay the sub in pounds then or in euros ?

wintry chasm
#

I assume it'll ask in Euros but not sure. Really don't think points since your country isn't specifically UK

brazen dawn
#

does mettle have any uses past hitting rank 25?

obsidian patio
#

Yes.

#

Damage/HP up/healing up

shut panther
#

valors are basically eureka elemental bonus armor

mental yew
#

@sudden dock just be aware you need to buy the base game + shadowbringers if you're on the trial

versed bison
#

so basically if I buy the game from USA, UK or Europe store of square enix, the game remains the same and I can activate it on mogstation ?

wintry chasm
#

US is a different region and not "Europe and Other Regions"

versed bison
#

is great britain also a separate region ?

shut panther
#

where is the CC you intend to pay a subscription from?

#

no, gb would be europe

wintry chasm
versed bison
shut panther
#

the safest option, if it's possible, is to attach a foreign address to your CC, ie the british friend you mentioned earlier, and use that on the european site to pay for the game

#

you will have no problem playing on NA servers that way

reef stone
shut panther
#

square's payment provider can be.. difficult.. for some people

wintry chasm
#

Playing on NA wouldn't be an issue anyway

shut panther
#

that was my point

#

just in case he thought playing on na would be a problem if he bought from EU

#

if you're never paid for ffxiv before complete edition is the play yeah

versed bison
shut panther
#

and then you're done until endwalker

halcyon mountain
#

do retainer gear stats mater (gathering,CP,str) for venture ? or just gear level will do ?

robust crow
#

how do you get the level 70 blue mage set?

#

the mirage set

#

does it require quests

shut panther
#

but for combat retainer it's just ilvl

mental yew
#

If you get the complete edition that should include the base game + shadowbringers

halcyon mountain
#

is there anywhere i can see that breakpoint ?

#

Hey guys, downloading the game for the first time since 2014. Any advice you could give me such as, data centres and things for Australians

gaunt grail
#

Welp definitely not leveling blue mage

remote lintel
#

AUS people usually play on the tonberry and kujata worlds

warped nest
#

We can tell you that a Oceania data center is in the pipeline

gleaming moon
#

so im level 70 mining and for some reason I dont have Scour or the following abilities afterwards? I'm starting Stormblood mining quests and kinda at a lost.

mental yew
#

@gaunt grail blue mage functions entirely differently from the normal leveling system

warped nest
#

Blue Mage gain good exp from killing open world enemies

mental yew
#

You can tag a lvl 70 mob, have your friend (not in the same party) kill it for you and lvl up 20 times instantly

ocean slate
#

i did potrd 51-100 and got zero timeworn artifacts, do i have to do it on my class, ith the book?

mental yew
gaunt grail
#

I survived it as a lancer

mental yew
#

I've boosted ppl to 50 in like 10 minutes on blue mage

#

You can hit cap in well less than an hour. Just find someone who also wants to lvl blue mage and do it for each other 😂

gaunt grail
#

Hmm will do that then

warped nest
#

Two hours of works to max your BLU is very good tbh

mental yew
#

Yeah it's hilariously fast

#

All the fun in blue mage is collecting spells anyway

mental yew
# gaunt grail Hmm will do that then

Oh right word of warning, previously at least it was lvl (cap-1) mobs that gave the most exp. I haven't tested if that still applies so kill a lvl 69 and a lvl 70 mob to make sure which is better

cunning basalt
#

About how long would Galatyn Anemos take to get starting now?

mental yew
#

From what I can recall anemos step is not that hard if you get a fate train going

#

But someone better versed in eureka would know better

cunning basalt
#

Ok thanks!

Those are the collectable gathering actions if I remember correctly. Those only appear in a separate interface when you’re gathering an item as a collectable.

mental yew
gleaming moon
#

where do I do this

#

lol

jovial quarry
#

Correct. Which is unlocked in Ishgard. Quest name is Inscrutable Tastes I believe?

mental yew
#

Yeah in foundation somewhere

#

It'll be one of those blue + quests

how to get the eternal devotion set?

#

is the promise of devotion(plat) enough?

Devotion requires both parties to have the platinum plan wristlet yes.

oof

#

Asking for a friend. Who is the craziest controller healer?

#

Trying to convince the dude to convert to ff ^^

jovial quarry
#

Which job? Probably AST. Having to select where cards go on controller requires several extra button presses.

rigid dove
#

Nono xD as in person

#

And no that def. Would be scholar imo

jovial quarry
#

Oh I'm not too sure. There aren't many streamers I'm aware of who main healer 😅

obsidian patio
#

I don’t really see how SCH is worse on controller than AST from personal experience.

mental oracle
#

What level is required to use Master Weaver III recipe?

celest coral
#

At what level can we use limit breaks?

whole wasp
#

limit breaks are granted according to your party size

#

you get 2 bars in a Light Party (4 people)
you get 3 bars in a Full Party (8 people)

#

your first 4 man content where you get to charge the LB bar to actually use it is the first dungeon at lvl 15

celest coral
#

Right. We got the bar full, but no one LB'd 😦

jovial quarry
#

Generally melee use it for bosses. Casters or ranged physical sometimes use it on super large pulls if possible. There are a few mechanics in harder content in which tanks are required to LB if the party is to survive. Healer LB is reserved solely for LB3 as a hail mary if things go south. As for when to use it on bosses, use when you have a large enough opening to do so.

whole wasp
#

unfortunate. you can press it yourself if you want after the final boss if nobody used it.

Anyone have more information on the relic armor

#

Trying to find resources

#

But can only find information on the weapons

jade quartz
#

What do you mean by relic armour?

#

There are three lots of armour sets in Bozja content: Bozjan, Law's Order, and Blade's.

spiral inlet
#

Is there 525 armor that is bis that came out during 5.55

jade quartz
#

No, BiS remains a combination of Augmented Cryptlurker and Edenmorn gear (both i530)

spiral inlet
#

Oh ok

jade quartz
#

But the Blade's Gear is i525

#

You get it by buying it from the Resistance Supplier for platinum coins, after completing the Dalriada.

unreal folio
#

hi guys, this should be fine for a gunblade right?

proud willow
#

It might be too much SkS. It entirely depends on how much you have from the rest of your gear.

#

If you're not Savage raiding, don't worry about it though

FFXIV steam version notices
  1. Steam launcher integration update
  2. Steam and windows expansions are not interchangeable, buy the expansions for your base platform
  3. Use SteamEdit to remove -issteam argument to play with your windows subscription via steam
  4. You do not need to uninstall ffxiv if you have either the steam or windows version when you want to swap.

is it worth getting the iron whatever armor if u get a full set of job specific armour from the lvl 50 job quest anyway

maybe some commonly used crafting material or something? any recommendations?

obsidian patio
#

if you don't have access to Ishgard, then basically buy a couple of each orchestrion roll and minion from each of the 3 starting city vendors near-ish the main aetheryte

#

most people are dumb and don't know those items can be bought from a vendor for cheap, so they can sometimes sell for profit on the marketboard.

shrewd cradle

I've never heard of those places :(

oh I misread that

soo orchestrion rolls and minions near aetherites in the main cities

o it doesnt let me sell the coffers on the marktoeeboard

nope, need level 64-65 story at least to enter the Azim Steppe

drifting atlas
#

Or do i progress with the story and that location will become enterable?

#

I see

humble arch
#

@obsidian patio so, to play on both, i need 2 different installs?

obsidian patio
#

You can register a non-steam game to the steam library, though I can't remember if that works.

#

But you can't use the steam launcher (as if you bought the game on steam) for non-steam

flat yew

you can't turn cryptlurker gear back into tomestones, can you?

#

im sooo confused i dont get this

#

where am i supposed to go to do these trials

dense herald
#

What trials?

fading helm
#

for minfilia shes red and i have to do these 3 trials before i can continue

glossy flare
#

urianger in the waking sands

fading helm
#

the quest is called a recurring problem

sage ore
#

hey guys can i swap my bozja relic weapons at any given time? i heard you can level you alt jobs lvl 71+ doing the resistance but the fire in the forge requires me to use my lvl 80 job. TIA

fading helm
#

he has 3 different things on his name which do i pick

glossy flare
#

all 3

dense herald
#

all of them if you're required to do all 3

fading helm
#

o

glossy flare
#

Bozja and the relics are completely separate though

#

You can do Bozja without caring about the relic at all

obsidian patio
fading helm
#

do i need to pay attention to these questlines ?

obsidian patio
#

not particularly

fading helm
#

it feels like its confusing me more lol

sage ore
#

oh got ya , im just ahout to unlock on my dk lvl 80 but i wil be maining my gnb lvl 76 so i was afraid if i started the quest would lock me in on the drk

#

@glossy flare

#

so fire in the forge quest its just to make your 1st resistance weapon right?

fading helm
#

i wish there was a crystal at the waking sands

glossy flare
#

The next one will require a 1k poetics investment

fading helm
#

for as much as the game makes u go there it would make sense to have one lol

sage ore
#

red poetics we get for doing dailie roulettes?

glossy flare
glossy flare
#

And what you get for roulettes depends on the job you do them with

shrewd cradle
#

is this rendering correctly

glossy flare
#

because at 80 you get other tomes

sage ore
#

awesokme thx a lot for your help @glossy flare ❤️

shrewd cradle
#

a lot of stuff in that area seems a bit off

obsidian patio
sage ore
#

so i can just get the free one on my lvl 80dk and then once its done i can do the quests on my 76 gnb?

shrewd cradle
#

this is in cutscene

obsidian patio
#

weather still matters for the most part in cutscenes

fading helm
#

is the fantasia i get from ARR completion the only free one i get

obsidian patio
#

yes.

shrewd cradle
#

interesting

fading helm
#

ughh lol

#

i wish i didnt use mine so quickly

glossy flare
#

But you can enter Bozja at 71, once you have unlocked it

#

For leveling purposes

sage ore
#

i meant just to do the resistance

#

correct

glossy flare
#

Just continue the Bozja questline on any 80 job until you unlock the actual Bozja instance

#

At that point you can use any lvl 71+ job to level in there

sage ore
#

awesome

#

thx hewaps

#

Is farming fates or mobs +10 your gear level better for spiritbonding?

#

Also, is it worth considering equipping the +x spiritbond gear?

#

Trying to farm low grade materia

orchid mulch
#

Quick question, do you have to upgrade the gear from the Samurai class quest? or is it more for novelty? Sorry really new so not for sure 😅

obsidian patio
#

it's just gear

#

use it if it's better than what you have

fading helm
#

i have to do the akh afah in extreme?

obsidian patio
#

no.

fading helm
#

to progress the msq?

random girder
#

no??

fading helm
#

why is it saying drop dead shiva use the duty finder to confont shiva in extreme

obsidian patio
#

that's an optional quest

glossy flare
#

wrong quest then, or at least not one you need for msq

obsidian patio
glossy flare
#

see Wynne's post above for the quest names you need

obsidian patio
#

leves might do it too? i never experimented with low level spiritbond since they changed it

#

worst case scenario you'll have to do dungeons

#

How is party targeting done on controller?

fading helm
#

idk guys now urianger has nothing on his head

foggy viper
#

@obsidian patio Ok, thanks!

coarse meadow
obsidian patio
#

pressing up twice (when not targeting anyone) also loops it back to the bottom of the party menu, same

#

thancred is supposed to have ifrit kills isnt he

yes...

#

is that urianger?

#

It's minfilia

#

Go to her room in the waking sands

fading helm
#

nice of course i go to the revenants toll lol

#

so is this stuff im doing right now things that happened before right

#

like i already did these events

#

do you have to finish all the crystal tower series for MSQ progression?

#

Yes

obsidian patio
#

no you talk to the minfilia in the waking sands, not revenants toll

fading helm
#

ik i am now

#

but like is this the past minfilia

obsidian patio
#

it's a weird mini-time bubble caused by her having the side-quest

lone canyon
#

Which voice is the miqtoe one which makes that meow sounds

obsidian patio
#

and also giving side quests to important NPCs AKA the scions

lone canyon
#

Is it voice 5?

fading helm
#

oh i see so i dont need to read this stuff to understand whats gonna happen after right

quaint brook
#

If you haven't done the primal quests ofc

glossy flare
#

spoilers and not possible since those quests are a requirement for msq

obsidian patio
#

TL;DR: the story basically proceeds linearly assuming you did the content around the patch it was introduced in.

#

Ifrit, Titan and Garuda are, yes

lethal locust
#

can anyone help with the first dungeon Sastasha?

#

zero people are queueing 😦

obsidian patio
#

Keep waiting. If you’re a DPS then expect to wait 10-15 minutes for most things in the duty finder.

lethal locust
#

oh boy, fair enough then

green grail
#

maybe longer, considering you have the crystal role and it's like 2-4am for a lot of US

obsidian patio
#

#

It’s basically the worst time of day possible to queue for anything in North America servers

lethal locust
#

oce servers when pls 😢

obsidian patio
#

Soon™️

sweet pasture
#

My southern bozja instance has been trying to spawn the For Absent Friends skirmish for 4 hours now. What the actual fuck is happening here?

#

They need to fix this

lethal locust
#

all i want to is to get to the point where i can join a company and unlock a mount

obsidian patio
#

It’s been spawning fine for me. 🤷‍♂️

#

Remember that only one CE or one Skirmish that leads to a CE can exist at a time

#

So not only do you need to kill Scorpions in the third zone, you need to clear other CEs that pop as soon as possible.

sweet pasture
#

We've got people clearing out CE and Skirmishes and a groiup farming the mechs in the surrounded area. And it just won't goddamn pop

obsidian patio
#

And the ones that lead to duels, like Absent, have a respawn timer

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.

So yeah just play what you want

Ok guess I'll do em once I'm caught up with msq

is there a way to get Pyros Crystal without doing fates since eureka is dead ?

Bunny fates or nm fates?

Something lower level like ash the magic dragon shouldnt be too hard to solo spawn

Got a friend trying to find a set of MNK weapons with a unique draw animation (i'm doubting they even exist), only thing to go on is it has a floating block particle effect for the set, and were glove fist weapons

robust light

arcanist, thaumaturge, or conjurer, which is the best in popularity?

thorn thicket
robust light
hoary veldt
#

So when starting should i only do MSQ till i'n level 50?

left moth
#

Can hop shamelessly from healer (scholar) or dps (summoner) with arcanist base class but no guarantee either (sch or smn) is fun (especially before trance at smn lv60)

@robust light , go Arcanist then. Arcanist becomes a healer and DPS later on.

Damn ☹️

Hope it’s worth it. FFX was my favourite game so want to unlock as much content that refers to it as poss.

I’m guessing because of the grind to unlock it doesn’t pop up in roulette much

A description of the floaters (particle fx) might help (even just a colour)

It is possible it is a relic weapon too.

thorn thicket
#

the main thing he was obsessing over was that it "had" a unique draw animation, and he was complaining the new mnk relic doesn't use it

left moth

I was thinking the literal cube mnk weapons but hard time remembering if they have a glowing variation

all he's caring about is the draw animation

Question for anyone here . Do you know what the name of the track that usually plays in more emotion filled cutscenes is ?the track starts with a bit of piano and violin joins in a bit later

Does anybody know why my game keeps crashing whenever I access my retainers? I just installed FFXIV on my new External SSD and everything seems to be okay up to the point to where I need to access or do anything with my retainers.

might be this one too

It’s neither of those , I don’t know how to describe it but I really love the violin on that track

Ah, that sucks. I just got his thing.

buoyant sorrel

What does proc mean and hard cast mean?

obsidian patio
#

Assuming you're asking about Red Mage, your procs are VerFire and VerStone, while hard casting is when you casting a spell that isn't being made instant by dual cast

Which msq specifically?

@warm snow hi, I finally bought ffxiv

hoary veldt

It's called dressed to call

literally all i need are lvl 5 armour pieces but i cant find any quests that gives me any

honest anvil

either the previous quest already gave you

Or

There should be a merchant nearby

hoary veldt
#

yea he gave me 1 piece

versed bison

Can the rathalos mount also attack ?

and i need 4 slots

#

i actually just playu on hd as o use my lg 1080 monitor

#

but i rarely noticed some weird stutters . they very quick though

uneven tendon
#

I think it’s just the CPU hitting max clocks and there being no variable refresh rate to remedy any inconsistencies tbh. (3.5GHz isn’t exactly brilliant for a very CPU heavy game)

rich bay
sage ore
#

oh i got ya

#

hopefully they should be able to patch it

#

i feel ps5 its so powerful , and yea thats very minor really. thx for clarifying that bud

karmic cove
#

where do people level up past 50?

warped echo
#

palace of the head until 61 then heaven on high until 70

#

or dungeons

jade quartz
#

If it's your first job, continue the MSQ.

#

Else dungeons and/or PotD

warped echo
#

is it more effective for me to use the bozja earring or menphina's earring while leveling in bozja?

#

does the 30% exp work in bozja

obsidian patio
#

bozja due to the haste bonus

#

if it's like other EXP equipment then only roulette bonuses and directly killing enemies should be boosted

warped echo
#

ok ty

jade quartz
#

Menphina's Earring will work as an exp boost on all the same stuff Bozjan does.

#

So surely it should be far superior

vital ruin
#

whats a flare mechanic

jade quartz
#

Do you mean an Exaflare mechanic?

vital ruin
#

diamond

#

reading the guide

#

it says "obvious" flare mechanic

oak ice
#

Flares are the "GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM THIS HUGE-ASS TRIANGLE"

vital ruin
#

ohh

jade quartz
#

Oh tank proximity attacks

vital ruin
#

like in bunker

jade quartz
#

A player is targeted with a big triangle of white arrows pointing outward

vital ruin
#

o

jade quartz
#

They will receive heavy damage and so will other players based on proximity

vital ruin
#

good to know

jade quartz
#

So tanks stay away from party with them

#

and use a cooldown

hoary veldt
#

Is there no VA even in cutscenes?

oak ice
#

Yeah, I think E2S is the only fight where people other than tanks get it

jade quartz
#

There is voice acting in some cutscenes.

#

As the expansions progress, a greater percentage of cutscenes becomes voiced.

hoary veldt
#

Ok it's just weird since I feel like this cutscene is supposed to be voiced acted but it's more like echoes of them barely speaking? Idk

obsidian patio
#

if you mean that you can barely hear them, check your audio settings in the system config

hoary veldt
#

Yea everything was up except master volume but i could hear everything else fine

jade willow
#

i'm currently max lv60 in heavensward... i guess i should switch to another job when completing msq to not waste xp, right?

if you want to, sure.

A friend of mine is playing the trial of the game.
If he buys the normal SHB expansion, will he get the base game aswell or he needs to buy the complete edition?

The latter

Needs complete edition

#

Base game + dlc

#

Think of it that way

#

You can play with just the base game but can't play with just shadowbringers

Yeah if Shadowbringers included the base game then there wouldn't be a point for the complete version

Hi! I'm a ps-player who just added a licence for pc, do I need to back up my character and ui settings from ps and then download it to pc to get all crossbar settings etc?

Ok so apparently there's no fix for grass flickering and has been in the game for over 4 years to my knowledge. Sucks

Hello! The 2 encyclopaedia eorzea books I ordered from eBay finally arrived and I was wondering since I can't open them yet; is the minion code inside the book or should I get an email with the code?

warm snow
#

And if its a weapon coffee you need to be lv70 to open it

karmic cove
#

thanks!

#

also why did they give me a level 90 coffer if the cap is 80

warm snow
#

gear unequippable by your current class/job

Would you meet the level reqs for a lv70 item

#

Item level

#

Item level 90

manic rune
#

nonono

#

that’s an ilvl 70 coffer?

karmic cove
#

let me double check just in case

faint flare
#

Item level =\= level

manic rune
#

bc ilvl 70 is like ... not even late ARR gear

#

rdm doesn’t have a weapon lower than i115 iirc

#

bc it was introduced in stormblood and it starts at lvl 50

#

so if you try to open an item level 70 weapon coffer it doesn’t work

#

bc no such weapon exists for rdm

karmic cove
#

ah i see

#

so rdm weapons start at i115?

manic rune
#

pretty sure

karmic cove
#

and ARR classes have items at i70 and i90 respectively?

manic rune
#

it’s the one you get as the starting gear

warm snow
#

Iirc hw jobs have some too

manic rune
#

i90 is AF1 gear i think?

#

for arr jobs

#

nvm it’s i55

#

wait

warm snow
#

So depending on when a job is introduced it starts at a certain level

ARR lv1
HW 30
Sb 50
Shb 60
Endwalker 70

manic rune
#

there are two sets

warm snow
#

There are NO usable weapons for those classes below their starting levels

#

Because there's no need

manic rune
#

yeah basically

warm snow
#

glamour weapons are a different thing not getting into that rn

#

So there's no dark Knight, machinist or astrologian weapons below level 30

manic rune
#

the i70 weapon coffer is for upgrading your arr job weapon that might still be at i50

#

bc rdm gets an i115 weapon for free as an unlock, they have no need to make a lower lvl weapon for it

oblique yew
#

can lvl 70 content be done solo by the end of EW?

little swift
#

Some 70 content can already be soloed

#

Mostly dungeons currently

oblique yew
#

what about the Omega raids?

little swift
#

Definitely not savage but if the normal mode has not too much damage it might be doable

#

Better to just find at least 1 or 2 friends though

Question for PC players. Sometimes in raids like Praetorium, you have to fast click an object to then activate it and proceed to next area, but there's a trash pool crowding it and right clicking to activate becomes difficult. I know I can F12 to target nearest object/npc, but is there another shortcut to then open the option box? It still means I have to physically zoom in and right click the object otherwise.

#

need a certain FC rank first

wintry chasm
#

Your FC has to be high enough rank

glossy flare

and then the xp boosts come tiered, so higher rank enables you to use better boosts

are the sapphire/ruby/diamond/etc cutscenes included in NG+?

Many players said to me that you can up 2 jobs during MSQ. But i'm doing some sidequest too, my 1st job outlevel by +10 lvl the MSQ, and my second outlevel it by 2-3 lvl. Is it normal or it can be worth to up a third one ?

glossy flare
#

If you're on a preferred world that sounds normal so sure, pick up a third one

#

May need to do a few roulettes to keep up 3 though

pseudo pulsar
#

@glossy flare Okey thanks, i'll check that. Or maybe i'll keep 2 jobs. But when you outlevel MSQ too much, it's strange to go in a dungeon with you new spells but you can't use them because you are too high level ^^

aw, it would be cool if you could hire NPCs to perform those roles

celest snow
#

If I'm not mistaken you can get a house in this game right? How or when do you get access to it?

glossy flare
#

Just being lvl 5 is enough afaik. There are quests to unlock the several housing areas and once you are in there it is, in theory, as simple as approaching an empty plot and paying the fee to get it

pseudo pulsar
#

Is it purely cosmetic the fact that you can have a a "modern style" skin ? Or even futuristic cosmetics (like the car from FF15). I even saw a little "alphinaud".
I though that FF15 was a medieval game, except some "steampunk" armors, like FF7. It feels strange sometimes to compare skins to NPC for example

green grail
#

you can unlock access to the housing zones around level.. 6? 10? outside each city, then you need to be second lieutenant of your grand company to be able to purchase any, and then get 3 - 50 million gil and then manage to purchase a plot before the other 1000 players interested in it

glossy flare
#

In practice there is a limited number of plots so the housing market is highly contested.

It's listed under Primal Gear when buying from idyllshire

#

they have a bunch of names

glossy flare
#

there are shiny primal weapons though

pseudo pulsar
#

@glossy flare Ofc, but it seems that there is a huge "out of story" cosmetics, like Gw2. Have a little alphinaud on your side, or a modern clothes. I know there are some sci fi influence in FF. But except some "robots" (magiteck, so it's not really scientific robots), most of the world is medieval : your mount is a chocobo ect.
I know that if i have a skin i will have one that fits the world ^^ Like i didn't like a super sayan skin in Gw2 x)

glossy flare

as with any expansion

the only shiny weapon i see from the vendor is totem gear alexander

sadly

@glossy flare Like Gw2, cosmetics are there to please the players, but that don't necessarily fits into the game. I just wanted to know if i'm right or not ^^

maiden palm
#

so not revenant

little swift
#

you can get it from idyllshire by lv58 in the msq

maiden palm
#

ok i see

leaden ginkgo
#

namazuconcern level 58 eh
Didnt know about that

little swift
#

obviously you still have to be 60 to equip it

#

but you can enter idyllshire by lv58msq

maiden palm
#

i forgot u get the tome gear at the end of each expansion that makes sense

olive totem
#

I never had healer anxiety, but I have tank anxiety.

How to fix this?

rose oak
#

whats the fastest omega for the memories? i need 4 books and ces are not popping

olive totem
#

I think the reason why I never had healer anxiety because support has been my class in almost every mmorpg game

glossy flare
#

only way to fix this is to tank stuff and get hit tbh

halcyon notch
#

This is my first MMO and I started as tank because I really wanted to be dark knight but I'm starting to think I made a mistake lmao it's so much pressure

green grail
#

just play tank GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

halcyon notch
#

And bro people are straight up lying when they say the community is not toxic

green grail
#

#

Tank is arguably the easiest role in the game, you are probably overthinking it

#

And sure, toxic ppl exist everywhere though if you are polite about your own mistakes chances are ppl will be polite towards you

#

And sprouts have a bit more leeway with those things too

little swift
#

not to discount your experience, but it could also be that your party members may be giving you advice or suggestions on how to make the instance experience smoother for every person involved

glossy flare
#

Yeah, advice is not necessarily toxic

halcyon notch
#

I know the difference between advice and toxicity lmao there's a huge difference between the people who tell me what I'm doing wrong and the people who make fun of me for messing up without telling me what I even did up

#

And there's been exactly one person who told me what I did wrong

#

Everyone else just berates me but won't answer me when I ask what I even did

umbral nest
#

how do i add a third hotbar

halcyon notch
#

I've played a lot of games but I've never seen a community this bad

little swift
#

not to argue, but there are definitely communities that are worse in "toxicity"

#

i'm sure there are things that were said to you that were awful, but similarly its not the whole picture since we only have what you're telling us

little swift
#

slap not relevant or the right channel

umbral nest
#

I also started playing bc of dark knight

#

shit wrong channel mb

olive totem
halcyon notch
#

Yeah I already wanted to start I was gonna play red mage but when I found out about dark knight I really wanted to do it

glossy flare
#

Just focus on what you need to do and you'll be fine

olive totem
#

I got so comfortable with AST that when I switched back to WHM, I couldn't handle it

warm snow
#

Wellllll, no dark Knight til you get to the first expansion

umbral nest
#

berserk + overpower

warm snow
#

And no red mage til you hit level 50 and buy the dlc

umbral nest
#

oogabooga

warm snow
#

Fair warning

glossy flare
#

If there's any specific part of tanking you need help with you can always ask here

#

Chances are you'll get some constructive answers

olive totem
#

The WHM is so much simpler than AST that the mechanics flew over my head

#

@glossy flare But, what really hit is when a healer left because we kept failing Dzemel Darkhold. I done the run many times and never had a problem with it as a tank

leaden ginkgo
olive totem
#

The worse part is that I was trying to communicate and no one talked until the healer left

leaden ginkgo
#

Which part kill the most btw?

glossy flare
#

It happens. 🤷 It's pretty much impossible to play an MMO without witnessing some dungeon runs imploding from people leaving or whatever

olive totem
#

After the boss where the there was a pathway of adds (mostly toads)

leaden ginkgo
#

namazuconcern oh it is the deadly turn

lavish vortex
#

Is there any use to extra materials for the 3 new relic quests after you complete them? (The ones that you do only once)

olive totem
#

Yeah, for some reason I kept getting knocked off the cliff and not aggroing all the adds

little swift
#

no its basically just trash, unless you want to keep them for memorabilia purposes

leaden ginkgo
#

The frog can tongue you

little swift
#

slap enough

leaden ginkgo
#

??

little swift
#

this is just conversation now

leaden ginkgo
#

namazuconcern guess i give my take in that channel

leaden ginkgo
#

u cant fly on idyllshire ?

glossy flare
#

nope

olive totem
#

You can't fly in major cities

glossy flare
#

well tbf, Idyllshire is not a major city, just the HW endgame hub

#

but the same is true for those anyway

leaden ginkgo
#

thanks

olive totem
#

I thought it was similar to the cities like Gridania, and U'l dah, and Limsa

glossy flare
#

It is in that regard, but it lacks a few features of the big cities

#

Like a market board for example

olive totem
#

Ohh

#

True

warm snow
#

It's not 100% consistent anyways as the endgame hub of ShB you can't use mounts at all

vital ruin
#

on a scale of 1-10 how difficult is hades ex

faint flare
#

One of the more harder Exs this expansion

vital ruin
#

vs wol?

pulsar escarp
#

wow

faint flare
#

Under wol

#

SOS ranks the top

vital ruin
#

was wondering why only hades ex gives tomes

faint flare
#

Just Ses decision

vital ruin
#

o

#

what would u rate ruby ex

faint flare
#

The easiest

#

All the weapons are piss easy

pulsar escarp
#

I thought hades was easy

vital ruin
#

but those orb placement MiqoteDepressed

faint flare
#

They have 1 mechanic each

pulsar escarp
#

he's just long

vital ruin
#

orbs are the hardest mech

pulsar escarp
#

like ten minutes a run

vital ruin
#

and that raven claw

faint flare
#

What orbs

#

Meteors?

vital ruin
#

the 3 orbs you drop

#

faint flare
#

Thats

Not hard

vital ruin
#

faint flare
#

You literally just stutter step inwards

#

Like you're slidecasting

vital ruin
#

o

faint flare
#

Barely even a Mechanic worth mentioning

#

Only mechanics ruby has is RavensFlight

vital ruin
#

ehich is telegraphed

faint flare
#

Anything else PF Complicates way too much

vital ruin
#

i c

warm snow
#

Hades was hard

#

Then people found a cheese spot

faint flare
#

Ruby only has RavensFlight, emerald only has orbs at the start and Diamond only has limit cut

warm snow
#

Throw in the almost 100 item levels we've gained since its release and he's a piece of cake now. Just long

faint flare
#

For their real mechanics

#

Otherwise thr boss just kinda does nothing

Role Quests FAQ

What are Role Quests?

Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.

At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.

I can't find where I left off!

No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.

short jasper
