whats the fastest way to level your squadron members ?

#

they are level 40 to 44

#

and they lack stats to do rank 3 squadron missions

faint flare
#

Just keep sending them out

#

It's a process

autumn hedge
#

I'm trying to figure out how to put a third hotbar on top of the two I already have. How can I do that?

cunning loom
#

you could customize the UI

autumn hedge
#

But how

cunning loom
#

HUD layout

autumn hedge
#

I know that much. I see where I can move additional hot bars around, but they're not visible after I save and close the editor

cunning loom
#

right click to make them visible

#

this colour = invisible

autumn hedge
#

OH

#

It worked that time

hey guys any good yt video to catch up on lore from the MSQ 1-60, leveled to 60 long time ago but i forgot the story D:

remote lintel
#

or just go into character config > hotbar

#

Do i need to complete castrum fluminis in normal to get the Tsukuyomi axe?

languid cedar
#

How do you start getting cosmetics as a new player? I don't see any clothing shops...

glossy flare

drifting atlas
glossy flare
#

dungeons, crafting, raids

#

just to name a few

glossy flare
languid cedar
glossy flare
#

sure there are gear merchants and sometimes some shops that do sell cosmetic gear (though usually not for gear)

#

but gil rarely is the way to a fancy glam tbh

languid cedar
#

I see, makes sense

glossy flare
#

ofc you can buy stuff from the MB

languid cedar
#

I'm lvl 20 and have had the same clothes for most the time so trying to find something else haha

manic rune
#

you can buy glamour from the player marketboard, but that’s not available to free trial players

#

have you completed hall of the novice?

sage mirage
#

I think Gold Saucer has some cosmetic stuff

languid cedar
ocean egret
#

where is the option to separate the WXHB into left WXHB and right WXHB? can't find it, trying to help a friend who wants a layout similar to mine but. can't remember where the option was

glossy flare
#

Well the issue for you is really more your lvl. You can't glamour a piece of higher level gear onto a lower one. Though purely cosmetic items are usually lvl 1

boreal storm
#

You won’t see the cool stuff in the early game

glossy flare
#

So a lot of options in terms of style are locked for you anyway

languid cedar
#

Cool, no worries, I'll keep going

#

Thanks all

manic rune
#

the hall of the novice stuff is the only semi decent looking gear at your level so you just have to keep going

exotic flume
#

From 0 to Extra rare special stuff, how much does soulbounding an item to x% help with desynth, is that old "lore"?

glossy flare
#

I don't think spiritbonding has any effect on desynth

#

It's just for extracting materia

I am currently level 46 and at the Operation Archon quest, yet I can only accept it when I am level 49. I never had to level up for a msq before so I am not sure where and how I should level, anyone that has some suggestion(s) perhaps?

glossy flare
remote lintel
#

roulette, beast tribes, unlock aurum vale at 47

#

And it's binary too, anything below 100% spiritbond is the same as 0% spiritbond

can do it once a day to do a random dungeon from those you have unlocked

#

with a hefty xp bonus

glossy flare
south kestrel
#

ah I see it, duty roulette leveling, thanks!

#

I thought about the game of roulette, sorry bout that

glossy flare
#

just dont spam it, it's only worth it once a day for the bonus

#

other than that

#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
glossy flare
#

refer to that for some leveling methods

buoyant sorrel
#

Is it better to level up crafting classes all together?

remote lintel
#

yes

glossy flare
#

ideally together with all the gatherers too

#

more efficient and saves money

buoyant sorrel
#

That's.. So many mats T^T

#

OK ty!

glossy flare
#

True, inventory management during the process sucks

#

But after that you're set for a lot of things

fringe bone

Does anyone know if you can get thancreds eye thingy? like what he has wrapped around his head

#

Thank you

glossy flare
#

remember to also do the DR weekly for the 3 gold coins

elder pagoda
#

i want to cosplay Raistlin from Dragonlance as a black mage, which would ideally entail being the generic human race. I understand that thaumaturge is the "job" i would want for that route. However, when it comes to general character aesthetics including height, should I forego those to have better starting wizard base stats? How important is "min maxing" here?

modest igloo
zinc orbitBOT
glossy flare
#

just go with what you like aesthetically

elder pagoda
#

okay fantastic

remote lintel
#

nothing on character creation affects gameplay except starting class

elder pagoda
#

thank you, and thanks for the primer posted above

glossy flare
#

and even your class can be changed since you can have all of them on just one character

#

But yeah, for now just go with rule of cool

elder pagoda
#

haha mah man 😂

#

sounds good to me

glossy flare
#

also FYI, Arcanists have more of a wizard theme going

elder pagoda
#

arcanist vs black mage?

modest igloo
#

one of the best dark kinghts i know is a lalafell

glossy flare
#

Black Mages may have the big stick but they are really more like... warlocks? Not quite

elder pagoda
#

would thaumaturge still be the starting job?

fading aurora
#

Midget advantage

faint flare
#

Arcanist wizard?

manic rune
#

black mage is definitely more of a traditional wizard mage type

faint flare
#

With black mages big pointy hats?

glossy flare
modest igloo
#

ok cyphers got this

elder pagoda
#

hmm i was going for a lot of offensive spells

glossy flare
#

Fair point about the pointy hats 😄 But Arcanist definitely has more of a "I learned this magic by studying hard" kinda vibe

faint flare
#

That's every job

manic rune
#

arcanist turns into summoner, which isn’t really what you imagine when you think of wizardry in the traditional dnd/rpg sense

modest igloo
#

all dps have a lot of offense

elder pagoda
#

this game is going to be sick

fading aurora
#

Arcanists learn spells while black mages have demons learn stuff for them vivsmug

modest igloo
#

heck, even tanks have a lot of offensive skills

elder pagoda
#

everything you guys are explaining right now sounds so cool

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.

faint flare
#

Dragoon

remote lintel
#

dragoon or monk

elder pagoda
#

thanks

manic rune
#

black mages uses big staffs and their main damage is from big fire/explosiony spells

leaden ginkgo
#

yeah i was thinking dragoon or nin

modest igloo
remote lintel
#

you cant start as ninja

fading aurora
#

Black mages use everything but black magic spells

#

😆

remote lintel
#

it is black magic

fading aurora
#

Should be a elemnetalist

#

Not a black mage

manic rune
#

that’s what black magic is in ff games

#

offensive elemental skills are black magic

glossy flare
#

fire, thunder and ice are traditionally "black" magic in ff games

hoary wadi
#

Is it worth multi classing on DoH/L jobs. Or is it a "pick one and stick with it for a bit" kind of deal like the combat classes.

manic rune
#

multiclassing is best

glossy flare
hoary wadi
#

All to max?

glossy flare
#

yes

heavy wadi
#

Yes.

hoary wadi
#

Word

glossy flare
#

they all work into each other

boreal storm

Doing all helps in the long run

so having all of them at max is the most efficient way

Noted, thanks guys

Each crafter needs mats from other crafters

leaden ginkgo
modest igloo
#

i'd also recommend waiting until you unlock ishgard restoration, as its the best place to level crafters for a while

fading aurora
#

Would it cost more than 10 mil gil if i were to buy all mats to level all the crafters to max?

modest igloo
#

yes

#

CRP took me 3 mil alone

leaden ginkgo
#

me levelling Armorer through Ishgardian Restoration... jesus christ it was expensive.

#

I gather all my mat up to level 60 alone so it doesnt cost million yet

#

But it means it is mindless running and gathering

fading aurora
#

Yes but im lazy

leaden ginkgo
#

Which is not time efficient ,-,

fading aurora
#

Id rather buy 50 level boosts just for the gil alone lmfao

#

Than gather stuff

cunning loom
#

it's movie-catchup efficient

leaden ginkgo
#

The annoying thing about the crafter leveling is tbh getting the gear

Oh fak

I forgot about gear

U need that too ugh

the fates are soloable

faint flare
analog cedar
#

I mean they are but so slow haha, especially since the drop rate isn’t very good

open coral
#

Just queue for the raids while you're doing FATEs

#

The raids have a guaranteed drop, so it's more efficient to queue them while doing FATEs

heavy wadi
#

Theyre really easy to solo

manic rune
#

*consistent

#

fates were definitely more efficient for me, but it’s reliant on rng so your experience may differ

analog cedar
#

Ye I’ve not had great luck with the drop rate

modest igloo
#

I used blue mage a lot for that step

manic rune
#

having just one other people doing fates with you speeds it up a lot

#

and yeah, blue mage is very useful in fate farming

plain python
#

does bojza lockbox drop anything good?

forest sphinx

A few mounts, some fashion implements, nice coats, flowers, a dress...

How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

leaden ginkgo
#

oooh i have to actually complete the main story and end up around level 50? is that just ARR's story, or any expansions too?

#

nvm lvl 20 quest

#

i should read first sorry

#

i still have the level 30 class job so i guess i just need to complete that and i am good to go

#

lvl30 class job quest, i mean

open coral
#

You should consistently be doing your job quests when they're available.

forest sphinx
#

They give you skills

leaden ginkgo
#

i've been doing all the quests in level order, it's an OCD thing...

Job quests are available every 5 levels.

Until level 50. Then they start to be every 3-ish levels instead.

i need help with a question about the complete edition, if i buy it, can I use a game time card after 30 free day?

open coral
#

Ironworks, Shire, and Scaevan gear can all be purchased with poetics.

halcyon quail
#

like i dont need pay a suscription? I want to play but I dont have a credit card to use

open coral
#

Game time card = subscription time

faint flare
#

The game time card is you paying

latent nebula
#

Could someone pls tell me where is the crafting guild located at?

#

Perfect, thank you guys!

halcyon quail
#

ok thanks, but it says that the game time card will need a standard account, and I am in free trial

remote lintel
#

you need to buy the game before you can sub

faint flare
#

You're a standard account

#

When you buy

open coral
halcyon quail
#

i get standard account with the free 30 day

forest sphinx
#

Besides Materia, is there anything I should be trading in my White/Yellow Crafting Scrips for? I remember feeling stupid during the Anima quests when I learned I could've been trading in Yellows for aethersand. Any notable items yall would recommend? Anything I'd want for the Bozjan weapons?

halcyon quail
#

?

remote lintel
#

yes

#

because you bought the game

#

which makes your account standard

open coral
#

Other way around - you get 30 free days when you get a standard account.

halcyon quail
#

I am in free trial

open coral
#

You're not buying 30 free days (that would be redundant), you're buying the game and being gifted 30 free days.

#

Yes, the free trial is unlimited time.

halcyon quail
#

sorry im getting confused

open coral
#

You don't need a subscription to play the free trial.

leaden ginkgo
#

free trial means it is FREE for those days

#

game time card adds days after the trial, like paying with a credit card does

boreal storm
#

Free trial is free forever

open coral
#

If you purchase the Complete or Starter edition of the game, and apply that code to your account, you'll be upgraded from a free trial account to a standard account and be automatically gifted 30 free days of subscription time.

halcyon quail
#

yes, and I want to buy the game, and Im planning on buying complete edition, but the game time cards is the only way I can get game time

open coral
#

After those 30 days are up, you'll be required to pay a subscription in some format, either through direct payment, Crysta, or using a game time card.

faint flare
#

And time cards are fine

boreal storm
#

Buying the actual game lets you play for a month before having to buy subs

open coral
remote lintel
#

youre on free trial

#

you buy the game

halcyon quail
#

ok thanks, actually

remote lintel
#

buying the game gives you 30 free days

#

when the 30 days are up you buy more time

halcyon quail
#

Thanks a lot actually

#

sorry for taking to much time

I think complete edition gives you extra 15

oh that's neat

remote lintel

it doesnt have to be before subbing

open coral
#

Doesn't it? I thought it did.

I leveled to 50 on free trial before subbing

what level class job quest do you need to do to get to white mage then? seems to be above the level 30 one

remote lintel
#

lvl 30

#

30

boreal storm
#

You have to do that msq quest beforehand

open coral
#

It's always level 30 to go from a class to a job.

halcyon quail
open coral
#

You must have completed the MSQ "Sylph-Management" as well, though.

faint flare
#

Can't even do Lv30+ job quests without getting your job

remote lintel
#

@halcyon quail you need to level another character

leaden ginkgo
#

i'm on the level 30 main story quest so definitely done that

remote lintel
#

do your class quests

pearl wing

If I’m making a new character, is it recommended to only do class quests and MSQ? Or are there other quests I should worry about? I’m not on a preferred server

faint flare
#

!faq questicons

zinc orbitBOT
#
What do all these quest icons mean?

msq - These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
bluequest - These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
sidequest - These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
repeatquest - These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.

You have to do Castrum Abania for MSQ at some point anyways.

if you think it's healer intensive then, if you're the healer, you're undergeared or doing something horribly wrong

Even mass pulling he bridge

You get like 500 by doing main story roulette each day

Does gaining mentor status automatically remove your sprout standing? I earned the crafting mentor crown but I have no desire to wear it all that often. I noticed that when I turn it off I don't have a sprout icon anymore. Just curious.

nooo when i finally changed to white mage it changed the order of all my hotkeys D:

because the hotbars are tied to class/job

change back to conjurer

then copy your hotbars

what are you talking about

when you right click on the number

it cuts your hotbars in half

outer mural

right click on it again until it's correct

it doesn't cut it in half

celest snow
#

so how does recruiting a friend work? it says that if you've established a subscription already then it will be too late to use the code but my friend hasn't payed for a subscription and he still can't see the "enter recruitment code". does he have to make a new account?

remote lintel
#

did he buy the game?

celest snow
#

not that we are aware of. he uses an old account so we are not 100% sure

outer mural
#

if he's subbed at one point it doesn't work

#

it doesn't matter if they bought the game or not

#

but once they actually subscribe to the game they are no longer able to give you the code

open coral
#

If it's an old account then he's likely well out of the window for RAF

celest snow
#

ok, so he should make a new account then

outer mural
#

if he does not care about the old account at all and wants the RAF stuff, sure

open coral
#

If he wants to start over, then yes.

#

But keep in mind that creating a new account means he'll need to purchase the game again for whatever platform he uses.

#

ok, thank you guys!!!

he won't have any expansions on the new account, if he has some on the old one

Guys how often does a servers status change regarding creating a new character on a populated world ? Should I check hourly or daily or? Thanks

@celest snow it should work

just do not have them subscribe to the game first

Much appreciated lads.

open coral
#

Temporary locks are indicated by a red icon to the right of the server status. Permanent locks are indicated by "Congested" status.

outer mural
#

if any server says 'no new chars can be made'

#

just give it time and try it again

#

i had 4 friends make chars on preferred crystal worlds and they all had to wait but eventually got it within 30 min

open coral
#

Temporary locks are placed when a server is too busy. We generally recommend waiting until off hours for that region to attempt to make a new character there.

he only sees "transfer to regular service" does that imply that he needs to use the code i have for the complete edition then recruitment code?

#

i feel so dumb for asking this tbh

Alright yeah that's what I thought, I'll wait till like 1am

#

Thanks again

open coral
celest snow
#

yes

remote lintel
#

you need to buy the game

#

and apply the code

#

and THEN use the RAF code

open coral

Then yes, he'll need to apply a purchased game code before he's eligible to use your RAF code.

how do i check my chocobo's SP and spend them? the little tutorial window didn't say where it is

twilit arch
#

in the companion menu

#

should be in the character main menu

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a shortcut for it? just to make it quicker to access

manic rune
#

you can set a keybind or drag the menu into an icon on your hotbars

twilit arch
#

I don't think it has one by default but you can add one to it in the keybind menu

manic rune
#

click and drag “companion” in the drop down menu and it will turn into a red icon that can be placed on your hud

Hey so my friend is trying to play the game on Mac but whenever the game launches she’s just met with a black screen. Is the Mac launcher supposed to look like the pre5.0 one?

rigid zealot
#

Heyya guys, trying to figure out what the MAX is in items that you craft. Can anyone help me understand what it means?

faint flare
#

The maximum amount of stats it can give

#

It increases your stats by X%, maximum X amount of points

For example, my Antelope Stew can have a max of GP+21% then?

in other words, to skip you have to pay

tough herald
#

Is there a way to auto-skip all quest text and all cutscenes (even if you haven't seen them yet). I know you can skip cutscenes you've already seen automatically at least, but clicking/mashing through all these is giving me arthritis. The game is awesome but I have zero interest in the story content.

remote lintel
#

nope

heavy wadi
#

No, you cannot.

#

And story is most of the content in this game.

modest igloo
#

you can by the story skip if you want

tough herald
#

Even the latest expansion?

remote lintel
#

no

heavy wadi
#

No.

mild fox
#

If I have a steam license added to a se account, can I ALSO add a complete windows edition from the SE store?

modest igloo
#

you'd still need to do shadowbringers MSQ

remote lintel
#

@mild fox no

mild fox
#

fuck

tough herald
#

I'm up to that point, and I would happily pay to skip shadowbringers and just unlock all the leveling dungeons/features tied to MSQ

remote lintel
#

its impossible to skip shadowbringers

tough herald
#

Oh well, thanks anyway. Much appreciated!

mild fox
#

I thought that if I bought the complete edition it would allow me to have both

remote lintel
#

if youre on steam you cant buy anything from the SE store

steam and windows fill the same license slot

is hoh not popular anymore ?

I'll try to cancel the order then

most people i see only plays potd and boja i cant see people plays hoh is that normal ?

what i do to level my chracter from 60 to 70 dps

modest igloo

dungeons and fates

inland marsh
#

how do I know if castrum is up? most of the time people seem to only know if it just happened

wispy basalt
remote lintel
#

because it will appear in the event window

#

like all other CEs

faint flare
#

It spawns faster with CE completion

#

So you don't know when it will next spawn

random girder
#

hoh is generally faster for dps

mild fox

is the SE assistance reliable when it comes to refunds? I heard it was a bit less stellar than the rest of the service

unkempt hull

what would be the fastest way to get from 47 to 49 for msq? I can't continue forward

been doing the blue side missions I took, but most give like no exp

mild fox

dungoens if you're a tank or healer...

zinc orbitBOT
mild fox

but I think it's still dungeons if you have any other jobs, compared to other alternatives

west parrot
#

does it matter who uses the limit break? does it do more dmg with better gear?

unkempt hull

this is my first character

correct, list still works @unkempt hull

Healer if everyone is dead

mild fox
random girder

only times tank lb is needed in normal is a12 and [redacted 5.3 trial]

#

i think

open coral
#

Nah, you don't really need tank LB on that trial on Normal. EX only.

mild fox
tough herald
#

Regardless, it is a requirement that if an instance has ended and no dps used the lb, tanks/healers should race to be the one to use it before anyone in the party exits the area

remote lintel

i dont remember tank LB on ex unless it refills your lb bar

open coral

It does

you already used your 30 days

if you bought the game then yes you did

solemn tapir

i only played the basic game, i just bought the complete edition

#

now

#

10 mins ago i bout the complete edition

remote lintel
#

the starter edition is what gives you the 30 days

faint flare
#

You can't use complete if you owned the Base game

twilit arch
faint flare
#

So you won't get the free days

solemn tapir
#

So if you are an old player and buy the complete edition, you don't get the 30 days?

remote lintel
#

no because you already bought the base game

#

the base game is what gives you the 30 days

#

not the complete edition itself

light lion
#

Just unlocked gunbreaker and it feels so cool, but is it kind of more damage oriented than the other tanks? Like is it supposed to be played as a bruiser or off tank?

I wanna ask if someone knows if the digital complete edition (this one https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/es_EU/product/565240/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition-collector-s-edition-pc-download) comes with a code or if they automatically activate it to your account.

remote lintel

its a code

leaden ginkgo
#

Is PoTD good for leveling alt DPS jobs from 20 to 50?

#

Or is the limit on levels you can use it to level for different than 20-50?

dusty magnet
twilit arch
#

potd is good for dps til lv 60

open coral
#

It's okay. Timewise it's efficient because queues are role agnostic, but xp wise you get about the same amount of xp for 10 floors as you do from one leveling dungeon

twilit arch
#

after lvl 60 the exp stops scaling so its better to move over to heaven on high for 61+

leaden ginkgo
#

Hi, does mount speed affect how quickly mounts swim underwater?

remote lintel
#

no

leaden ginkgo
#

Thank you

stray mason
#

Whats the point of buying the Online edition if it includes everything that is in the free trial?

twilit arch
#

trial doesn't give you ownership of the game

#

so you still need to buy the starter edition in some form or fashion, whether its by itself or thru the complete edition

leaden ginkgo

how people have road to 70 and their levels are 80

I'm trying to ID a certain mount. It flies; it looks kind of like an Eastern dragon, very long and skinny like a snake, with two pairs of legs; it has four big white feathery wings, right above its legs. The rider sits above the front pair of wings. Ideas?

I always got the impression baby moogles just sort of sprung into existence and were delivered to their parents by the mail moogles.

spice knot
#

what does this mean? I had a long ass queue of 10+ min and then a short window of 20secs to accept missed and got some penalty?

But for all I know, something specifies the details of moogle relationships somewhere.

exotic flume
#

Wait... we only have 3 healer jobs?

pearl mesa
sage mirage
remote lintel

@spice knot if you withdraw when the queue pops or dont click accept then you get a penalty

#

@exotic flume yes

pearl mesa
spice knot
#

What is the penalty though?

exotic flume
remote lintel
#

3 strikes means you cant queue for 30 mins

spice knot

it doesnt make any noise when tabbed out D:

random girder
exotic flume
random girder
#

and set it to only play system sounds

remote lintel

go to system settings > audio and tick sounds when alt tabbed

that way if someone /tells or emotes at me i can also hear it along with queues lol

Astro starts at 30, correct?

remote lintel

yes

vapid spoke
#

what's a newbie friendly DPS job as a new player ?

random girder

any, really

but the easiest are bard and red mage, generally

#

bard has heavy rng but is otherwise very simple

#

rdm has light rng and easy to pick up

sage mirage
#

I did arcanist, since it can switch to a healer later for dungeon queues

random girder
#

arcanist is newbie friendly until you hit 80 on smn and have to learn calculus

elder root
#

don't really like the feel of arcanist tho

#

cause you gotta dot everything and it's annoying

Just came back from a very long hiatus and started a fresh character.

I’m horrifically undergeared and struggling to do the prerequisite to my PLD quest. How should I catch up? Go deeper into the MSQ for a bit?

faint flare
#

All credits can be skipped

sage mirage
#

Does the potency reduced stat on Bane decrease the damage done on the original target?

remote lintel
#

do the msq

random girder
#

you put both dots on one target, then spread them to others

faint flare

The reduction is only for the spread dots

random girder

the others will have reduced

you get better gear from msq and job quests

they're fine

Vendor gear is normal quality

Thus has lower stats

Than other ilvl gear

elder root

still whatever for leveling

remote lintel

no

#

vendor gear is shit

twilit arch

you should not buy vendor gear, even for leveling, after lvl50

odd pelican

So it is indeed just acquiring wew, i did the summoner quests on the side and got some purple gear. Thought i ould refine them or something.

Literally lv60 vendor gear is WEAKER than lv50 tome gear

@odd pelican the relic weapon? those are upgraded but you generally wait until 80 to do them since theyre only good for glamour

I remember when a friend of mine didn't have hw and as soon as he hit 50 on ARR i gave him a complete set from ishgard and his stats went kaboom

elder root

idk I just buy the highest ilevel thing on the MB and I crush everything

twilit arch

and it's all white gear

remote lintel
#

gear is overpriced on the mb

faint flare

If it's HQ it's fine

it's cheaper actually

remote lintel

and the stuff on the mb is just from the msq anyway

Otherwise you wasted money

i wanna switch my main from blm to dragoon and while both are at 80 i have like ZERO gear for dragoon other than the shb artifact and artifact gear from the shb role quest

No worries tho

Everyone makes that mistake once

leaden ginkgo
#

is the free trial up to lvl60 temporary on both the steam client and thru the squareenix site/launcher?

remote lintel
#

no

sage mirage
#

Actually, it's on both

modest igloo
#

It’s not time limited whatsoever

leaden ginkgo
#

weird! thru the site it says "30 day" trial or something?

sage mirage
#

I think it's 30 days or something

remote lintel
#

thats the 30 free days you get when you buy the game

#

not the free trial

sage mirage
#

Keep in mind that purchases on Steam and the SqEnix site don't mix

leaden ginkgo
#

thanks! so if i sign up for a free trial it's not limited to 30 days, got it

hazy dove
#

So, being a sprout, I was reading up guides on WHM since I've hit 50, I'm assuming that's when you need to probably learn your role better, and it said I need to include BM macro for my Raise ability. Is that actually a thing higher level players do? >.>

remote lintel
#

not really

twilit arch
#

no

remote lintel
#

theres no need for a raise macro

hazy dove
#

how do macros even work?

remote lintel
#

if youre a high level player then you would use your eyes and see the raise buff on whoever the other healer rezzed

#

they can do things like auto target a target and do a skill on them

gritty oracle
#

Does it ever get revealed what Brangwine needs dead adventurers' stuff for?

hazy dove
#

so assuming someone dies, it'll auto-cast raise?

remote lintel
#

no

sage mirage
twilit arch
#

no, you still have to press the macro to use the ability

remote lintel
#

macros dont auto cast anything, you need to click them

hazy dove
#

ah okay

remote lintel
#

raise macros are mainly for auto messaging in chat who you raised

#

which like i said isnt necessary if you just use your eyes

warm snow
#

Macros that automatically use abilities on the second/third etc. Party member

#

I have a shirk macro on my tanks

hazy dove
#

so macros also lets you chain a series of abilities together in one button?

sage mirage
#

correct

remote lintel
#

can yes, but absolutely should not under any circumstances

warm snow
#

Yes but DO NOT use them to chain combat abilities

warm snow
remote lintel
#

you never put more than 1 skill into a macro for combat

hazy dove
#

If you initiate a macro with lets say 10 abilities linked up, can you stop mid way? Assuming combat abilities

#

or does it just keep going

remote lintel
#

anything you do will interrupt it

sage mirage
#

you can make a macro that cancels other macros

remote lintel
#

which means you would need to do absolutely nothing once you click the macro or else youll fuck it up

#

besides like moving around

warm snow
#

It'll try to execute those 10 abilities and probably kick up error messages

hazy dove
#

yikes

remote lintel
#

you would need to force a wait time in each macro line

#

which is 1 second at minimum

sage mirage

It also only works in full seconds

remote lintel
#

but gcds are 2.5 seconds so you would need a 3 second wait time

#

which means youll be slow as fuck

#

so basically you would be able to do 1 skill every 3 seconds at best

Do any of the ARR 60 EX trials need multiple people for mechanics?

hazy dove
#

so definitely better to just not chain combat for sake of efficiency but for crafting wouldn't matter since i can just afk all that stuff?

remote lintel
#

crafting is fine since theres no rush to do anything

thats not ARR thats HW

wispy shell

o

sage mirage
remote lintel
#

and i think sephirot needs multiple people

#

bismarck needs people too if you cant burst fast enough

modest igloo

Ravana is kinda soloable but that’s it

is there any sense making 2 characters if one char can be every class?

remote lintel
#

if oyu feel like it

sage mirage

#

whats FC?

sage mirage
#

Free Company, basically a guild

twilit arch
#

free company, aka player guilds

modest igloo
#

Also if you wanna raid with multiple groups

opaque heart
#

arent the world combined?

#

like I can play on all worls from Chaos realm?

sage mirage
#

Matchmaking for dungeons and such is across all worlds, and you can visit other worlds. But you can only join a FC from your home world

opaque heart
#

where can I look for some guilds?

modest igloo
sage mirage
#

There is a recruitment page for your datacenter on this discord, you can check there

grim plover
#

is crafting like jobs aswell?

#

can i join all of them

crystal bluff
#

yes

grim plover
#

ok so is there any reason you would need to create another character?

remote lintel
#

if you feel like it

sage mirage
#

In-game reasons? Not really. Only if you want to join a FC from a different world

grim plover
#

is crafting something i should get from the start?

remote lintel
#

if you feel like it

hazy dove
#

it's a nice change of pace, relaxing

remote lintel
#

if the question is "should i do ___" the answer is 75% "if you want to"

modest igloo
#

I would say wait for ishgard restoration to powerlevel

sage mirage
#

You can ignore it if you want. But I like crafting, so I joined all the crafting jobs

hazy dove
#

I'm a sprout and my fishing is higher than my main WHM for combat...

grim plover
#

well like in eso you need to dismantle gear for triats and it takes real time days so start from the begining and its less time waiting

#

wondering if its simular

remote lintel
#

lol no

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Completely optional

modest igloo
#

Fuck that noise

remote lintel
#

dismantling gear in xiv is instant

modest igloo
#

Crafting is completely optional if you want

remote lintel
#

and oyu dont even need to dismantle gear

#

could do a hundred other things with it

#

how can i cancel a service account? i can't see a cancel button under "your account" in the online mog station site

onyx kiln
#

does the Elementals or harmony potions affect how many crystals you get in pyros from FATES?

faint flare
#

No

#

It's just xp

hazy dove
#

(WHM btw) So I've noticed that sometimes in raids, even tho I'm in the very back or last one to enter the room, when the tank engages some of the mobs automatically target me before I've even started healing or anything, regen is also not active on the tank. Is it normal for mobs to just straight go for me sometimes?

remote lintel
#

@leaden ginkgo click "your account" tab and scroll down

slate arrow
remote lintel
#

canceling service account will basically delete your account

#

just saying

leaden ginkgo
#

my current account is listed as "free trial" (i made it maybe 2-3 years ago) and i don't see a cancel button? i'd like to just get the free trial 😅

sage mirage
slate arrow
leaden ginkgo
#

if that equates to deleting my account ill probably just make an alt account then! thanks again!!!

hazy dove
sage mirage
remote lintel
#

if your account is free trial then you already have the trial?

#

@hazy dove do you have regen on anyone at all

leaden ginkgo
#

unfortunately my "free trial" is considered a service account. perhaps the free trial until lvl 60 is a recent thing and it doesnt count to my trial that i began 2-3 years ago

remote lintel
#

free trial accounts should have automatically been upgraded to the new trial

hazy dove
remote lintel
#

which raid is this

hot eagle
#

yeah he probably had a trial account from when free trial was till like lvl30 and time limited

remote lintel
#

and which part of the raid

grim plover
#

is there a way to switch jobs without needing gear?

warm snow
#

No

obsidian patio
#

You always need the weapon and job stone since that determines your job

grim plover
#

how would i go about getting a weapon?

warm snow
#

Your job is 100% dependent on your main hand gear

remote lintel
#

the class unlock quest gives you a weapon

sage mirage
warm snow
#

You get a starter weapon whenever you unlock a job

grim plover
#

lets say i dropped the weapon

remote lintel
#

buy it from a vendor

warm snow
#

Go buy a new one from a vendor

obsidian patio
#

Unlocking the class should’ve given it to you, if you tossed it. Buy a level 1 weapon from the market of that city

grim plover
#

any?

remote lintel
#

no

#

the weapon for the class

sage mirage
#

battlecraft vendor in any major city

#

but you need to do an initial quest to unlock the job first

warm snow
#

What job?

#

So we can tell you what to buy

I need some help before I get dumb on what Im seeing.
Im crafting and I use the skill Veneration where synthesis actions only use 50% of the durability.
I use that skill, use carefull synthesis and for some reason it doesn't use the 50%
Here's some Screenshots

Where would you get level 75 gear for a DRK (besides MB)?

gusty pier
#

Is this a bug?

**Veneration** : lvl 15 CRP (18 CP) (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases efficiency of Synthesis actions by 50% for the next four steps.

@gusty pier Veneration doesn't reduce durability it increases progress by 50% of the action

faint flare
#

EFFICIENCY of synthesis actions

#

NOt durability

heavy wadi
#

no, it’s a buff on synthesis actions...

faint flare
#

Efficency is how much synthesis gives

grim plover
#

yea i already unblocked it

#

#

Im dumb then.. I dont get why this macro isn't working then
