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.

You can also change nameplate display settings there. For example, I'd recommend changing minion names to "only when targeted" or "off" because they can cause quite a lot of clutter

cobalt pagoda

can some one tell me how the bloody hell do I set the ffxiv forums back to mobile format???? I’m trying really bloody hard to find that setting bit I can’t

dark void
#

quick question, no spoiler pls

jade quartz

hm I'm looking on my phone now

dark void
#

there is that suzaku boss

#

how/when can i fight suzaku boss?

agile laurel

okay!! thank you

outer star
jade quartz
#

Begins the questline. You will go through one dungeon, one other trial and another dungeon before you reach the trial with Suzaku.

outer star
#

Jade Stoa follows that, then you get the Suzaku fight

#

Oh yeah Swallow's Compass precedes Suzaku

#

These require some MSQ progression to unlock as well

hidden geode
#

How do I make it to aleport? "Western la noscea"

jade quartz
#

If you've been there before and attuned to the aetheryte, you can just teleport there from the teleport list.

#

I'm new, level 19 ;P

proud willow
#

If you're on the quest It's Probably Pirates, one of the quest steps takes you down to the docks by the Fishers' Guild

leaden ginkgo
#

do you lose something if you die in bozja ?

proud willow
#

there is a ferry there that will take you to Aleport

real seal
leaden ginkgo
proud willow
#

Past rank 5, you lose a little mettle when you die and a lot if you respawn instead of being rezzed

real seal
#

depends on your rank I guess?

potent lava
#

being rezzed still takes away mettle, but a lot less than if you respawn back to camp

vast hinge
#

this might be the wrong channel to ask, but for those who've played a lot of MMOs extensively at the endgame level, how hard is this 1.

in this context, I'm mostly asking how hard is the most challenging stuff available relative to other games. can a full group of people who know what they're doing first clear a new "endgame raid" within 2 days of raiding?

real seal
cursive terrace
#

my wasd and keypad are inversed

#

anyone know how to fix it?

outer star
#

With a scant handful of exceptions when Yoshi-P is showcasing an arena

#

The Epic of Alexander took 3 days, 21 hours, and 26 minutes from release, which is considered very impressive

#

What is the command to see a rotation of a job? (from kupo bot)

agile laurel
#

there's only one for blm

opaque fiber
#

I saw yesterday one for SAM

agile laurel
#

i imagine it's just this

opaque fiber
#

yes

#

Is there one for DRG?

shrewd owl
#

dont think so

glossy flare
#

not that I know of

opaque fiber
#

Ah crap

glossy flare
#

not every job has such a command

opaque fiber
#

And SMN?

glossy flare
#

!faq smncycle

The two minute cycle by Edyis Darkbane and Elevation Xx (Faerie)
glossy flare
#

that's about it

#

not the actual full rotation though

opaque fiber
#

Ok ty

glossy flare
#

However you can check out more detailed resources over on the balance, that's where those graphics usually come from anyway

#

!faq balance

zinc orbitBOT
opaque fiber
#

Hmm I know SMN rotation, just wondered to see if there are other ways

glossy flare
#

or check out saltedxiv while the site is still up for a more fancy version of guides

glossy flare
agile laurel
#

yes but no, smn does have 2 rotations

glossy flare
#

Maybe some slight variation which usually stems from different gcd timers

upper flame
#

hello, i am bad at calculations and sorry for asking this

do you think this amount of materials can bring me from lv20 to lv40 alchemist?

agile laurel
#

but yes, usually there is right and wrong

untold vine
#

What's a neat crafting class to learn ?

glossy flare
#

all of them

untold vine
#

Yes you can eventually learn all of em,

glossy flare
#

they all work into each other so doing all of them at the same time is the most optimal way

#

just doing one is less efficient and will cost you more money in the long run

tropic flame
#

id reccommend weaver for glam

untold vine
#

All at the same time ? OwO

cobalt pagoda
#

I can’t bloody log in the forums now! Failed to confirm the session key.

glossy flare
#

Yes, it's overall faster and cheaper

cobalt pagoda
#

it gives me that shit

jaunty mason
#

im not sure if i can ask this here...
how to tell if a lalafell is male or female?🤔

shut panther
#

Every crafting class pulls from each other

#

Having said that, "level them all at the same time" is far less important with ishgard crafts.

green grail
jaunty mason
#

female lalas have longer eyelashes? i noticed some female lala npc have pink-ish lips, but the npc in eureka kinda confused me, i thought he was a she

green grail
#

yeah that too

gentle cradle
#

Hi guys, I just purchased FF14, but It does not let me connect

#

Any issues with servers?

green grail
#

nope

#

did you play on trial previously? steam/SE store?

gentle cradle
#

@green grail nope, very new, just finished to download the game

green grail
#

did you create a ffxiv account or what are you using to log in

agile laurel
#

well what errors are you getting?

gentle cradle
#

@green grail @agile laurel I'm getting [403] [20028]error, network issue

agile laurel
#

are you on PC or ps4?

gentle cradle
#

I also tried to log in on Sqenix website

#

Ps5

agile laurel
#

recommend turning off and on again and removing the ethernet cable?

#

or re-confirming the connection or whatever

gentle cradle
#

@agile laurel done all

#

@agile laurel and connection is working well

agile laurel
gentle cradle
#

@agile laurel thank you, but it seems the portal for the accounts registration is under maintainance, that's probably why I cannot access

iron wasp
#

if your character is on Cerberus, can you join a fc in another server like Spriggan? cause its the same datacentre?

vestal needle
#

Do you guys think a trailer showing skills will be sgown in the 14h broadcast?

primal ermine
iron wasp
#

thanks for the answer :)

hoary wadi
#

If I get into crafting, is the gear you can craft at end game viable for the highest tier of trials?

glossy flare
#

Yes

#

Crafted sets are usually the entry gear for a given raid tier (including trials)

hoary wadi
#

Oh pog

manic rune
#

yes, the best gear upon the release of a new raid tier is crafted

glossy flare
#

For example right now you would craft the exarchic set

#

which is ilvl 510

manic rune
#

pentamelded exarchic gear was the gear of choice for world first raiders this tier

hoary wadi
#

Word, so no reasons to not do crafting besides the time and gil sink

glossy flare
#

obviously the raids themselves (+ tomestones) drop better stuff

#

but nonetheless, crafted sets are a great entry point

hoary wadi
#

Nice nice, thanks

manic rune
#

crafting is entirely optional but worth it if you're interested in making big money

#

crafters who were selling sets of gear on day 1 of release were making millions and millions of gil due to the demand

hoary wadi
#

Bird up

next portal
#

im trying to create a new character and is from singapore

#

may i know which server to pick for home world?

#

and will i be binded to it?

onyx kiln
#

just thought of this but why is there a second slot underneath your selected dye in the item Dying meny?

green grail
#

some colours can be applied using 2 "different" dyes, one obtainable ingame, one through cash shop/recruit a friend

onyx kiln
#

so they are still the same dye but there is 2 different items for it

green grail
#

ye, and if you have both you can use that ui to select which you want to use

onyx kiln
#

okay

green grail
#

most of the game is cross-world so you do content with the whole datacenter, free companies (guilds) is basically the only thing server choice affects

leaden ginkgo
#

how can i get 3 seals

green grail
#

use the card while in combat

leaden ginkgo
#

draw a card ?

cursive plank
#

So I'm level 22 on the trial and so far I'm having a blast but I really want to do some dungeons just to see them but I'm not sure how or what needs to be done to get in

green grail
#

play, which gets replaced by the spear, or whatever you have currently drawn

proud willow
#

the first dungeon unlocks during a level 15 MSQ

#

actually you'll unlock 3 dungeons pretty much back to back, just keep following the story

leaden ginkgo
#

i have to use it formyself

green grail
#

on yourself (in combat) or a party member who's in combat

cursive plank
#

Okay thank you I think I out leveled the msq by exploring too much

leaden ginkgo
#

ok thanks

cursive plank
#

Everything gives you so much experience

glossy flare
#

general advice: msq locks everything in this game

#

and it is usually enough to satisfy your xp needs

#

so just doing msq and nothing else is totally viable

outer mural
#

you use it the instant you enter combat the game might not have counted it as combat and you lose the potential seal

cursive plank
#

So msq and my class stuff

glossy flare
#

pretty much

outer mural
#

yes that's pretty much it

leaden ginkgo
#

oki

glossy flare
#

also bluequest in general unlock stuff

#

some of it less important, some of it more important

#

Still, that icon should get your attention

cursive plank
#

Like could be a dungeon or a pet ?

glossy flare
#

exactly

#

but for the majority of them it's something more important like a new class, a dungeon or stuff you need to unlock flying for a zone

#

Or you know... look up the quest name, see what it leads to

cursive plank
#

I keep forgetting you can do that in game

glossy flare
#

Well, not always

#

Dungeons for example are usually not stated as quest rewards or anything.

#

Or sometimes it's a quest chain and the unlock is at the end. But all the quests leading there will still be bluequest

#

I have a friend who wants to play/try the game. I noticed there's a free trial. Does he need to buy the game and that just gives him a free sub/playtime or can he play for free for X amount of time

next portal
#

i am on the free trial too

#

it lets u play till lvl 60, unlimited time, with some content removed

glossy flare
#

no need to buy the game

#

and there is no time limit on it

#

It just stops at lvl 60, as in you can't gain any xp after that and you can't progress into Stormblood

#

The main reason why you would want to buy the game before that point are the restrictions the trial comes with. Like a cap on how much gil you can have and not being able to use the market board

shut panther
next portal
#

is free comapny a big deal before lvl 60?

#

seems trial players cant join free companies

glossy flare
#

correct, they can not

#

and it's mainly a social thing, so that may or may not be a big deal to you

feral mango
#

Could I okay with him like in party and such ?

#

Play*

glossy flare
#

trial players can't create parties but they can be invited to them

#

so as long as you are a regular sub it works

feral mango
#

Okay cool.

anyone have a loot table for Zadnor? So I can farm some fragments

cunning sable

what should I do hhhhhhhhh, bard here

crit, direct hit, det in that order

next portal
#

sorry another noob question, so if my frd is on tonberry and im on kuja, we cant be in the same FC, but i can see him in game and do quest together?

west spire
#

heyy ^^ does anyone know how i can get the chocopukkor mount in germany?

outer star
#

I think the offer is US exclusive

outer star
west spire
#

do we get some event for it aswell? .. because i just found, that i could buy the code for it for 20euro or so else :/ and its listened as region free

#

i dont know if im going to miss it completely when i dont act now x.x

#

a little information of it on the lodestone would be great ... x.x

brittle cobalt
#

yo, hey everyone. I'm new to ff14 and rn I'm a level 26 glad. I'm second guessing on which server I should play on, right now I'm on Kujata cause I heard that's a pretty good server for Aussies although I've heard that it can be hard sometimes cause of the jp players (language difference) and I've actually heard that I can get better ping on NA servers

next portal
#

so for example jp region has 3 data centers? crystal and elemental and ...

#

we need to be in the same data center?

cursive plank
#

My gear has these green circles underneath I assume I can put something in them what and how do I aquire that stuff

brittle cobalt
west spire
#

these are materia slots, so you can basically add some materia ^^ but in the leveling process, materia isnt that useful :/

midnight tinsel
#

@brittle cobalt google the ip of the data centers

cursive plank
#

Are they like stats ? Like gem slots in wow ?

midnight tinsel
#

And then ping it

#

And see which is best

#

Before you trust hearsay on that

#

Also iirc theres an oceania data center coming in the near future

proud willow
# west spire i dont know if im going to miss it completely when i dont act now x.x

There is one line on Lodestone where it says "It may be possible to obtain this item via other means in the future." but there's no info other than that. https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/168524b1d57f06ff00c415ba67f2d239a0e86702

FINAL FANTASY XIV, The Lodestone

Game Better with Butterfinger® and Score the Chocorpokkur Mount

#

buying the mount code off of someone will work, but would be considered RMT

brittle cobalt
#

@midnight tinsel thanks man

midnight tinsel
#

@proud willow would it though ?

west spire
#

it isnt spread ingame :/ its just on ebay some codesellers and so on

#

i dont think that it counts as rmt because you could have an friend in the usa who gets you the code x.x

midnight tinsel
#

Or you just went there on holiday

#

And brought one back

west spire
#

and this site of the lodestone dont exist in germany :/

#

yea ^^

does armory bonus works on bozja ?

You can buy armor upgrades with sacks of nuts

From ShB hunts

That's it

And savage

Savage drops the upgrades

Oh yeah, savage drops upgrade mats too

ember vault
#

or buy em with tomes

Oh I see

you can then upgarde em with twine etc

Not until 6.0 and then it will be with poetics

#

Hunt trains are insane

gloomy mortar
#

Also 240 allegory, 360 poetics, takes about 20 mins

#

Hunt trains are easy; the S-Ranks are hard… you literally have to drop everything to make it in time to a cross server s rank and Hope there isn’t congestion, Hope no early pullers

#

S-ranks generally taken down within 4 mins of announcing

ember vault
#

Easy? Try fighting The Formidable and say S ranks are easy

#

4 minutes my ass

atomic pilot
#

Do we have any hats in the game similar to this?

gloomy mortar
#

3 mins often

outer star
# next portal yes

At the moment yeah you can play with others on your data center, and if you interact with a city aetheryte you can visit other worlds on it too

atomic pilot
#

I ask because I want to make an Onmyodo style character for my Caster and Healer classes

warm snow
green grail
#

!itemglam genta eboshi of healing

gloomy mortar

is there a guide for crafting levelling with the road to 70 buff?

valid obsidian
#

Is it hard to level up a crafter? Newer to the game, not sure how the progression works for them

alpine shadow
#

not hard, just tedious

leaden ginkgo
#

why my armory bonus only gives 50% in bozja

gloomy mortar
ember vault
#

Though you get a decent exp bonus for first time crafting an item

#

so don't entirely brush aside the crafting list

faint flare
leaden ginkgo
gloomy mortar
#

Usually the grand company turn ins are at the top of your current crafting level, which make making it HQ difficult.

#

Also, you don’t have to buy intermediate crafting gear . I was a level 80 fisher before I ever fished, same with alchemist

brisk crypt
#

???? how?

#

oh, GC turn ins.

#

When can I actually register?

open rivet

#

I thought it was pre-registration like ocean fishing

open rivet
#

it's the same as ocean fishing tho? 😕
on the hour it unlocks the npc to start queue

brittle cobalt
#

I think I'm gonna change over to Lich. Should I make a new character or transfer my original one (he's lvl 26 rn)

outer star
#

iirc that was like 10 minutes prior

#

Definitely taking its sweet time and I'm seeing two people with similar name and look from the same FC hmm

open rivet
#

if not enough people queue,
open tournaments, unlike ocean fishing, will have the open slots filled w/ NPCs

just a matter of time

#

As it says on the play-guide one cannot buy a fc house if another char on the same world is in a fc that owns a house,
I assume I'll have to leave the FC on the other character, and rejoin after buying the house on the character.

No

#

You can own a personal house while being in an FC that also owns a house.

You cannot.

should I play on light or primal? I'm an AUS player

Check your ping to each

And go.with whatever is less

Either/or, although Elemental (JP) is where you'll find more SEA/OCE players.

Alot of aus are on jp

that's what I've been playing on so far but I've heard that there's still a large jp population there as well so I dunno

oh and how would one check their ping on ff14?

Well yeah cause it's a jp data centre

#

!faq checkping

zinc orbitBOT

Q: How do i check my ping to the servers?
  1. Open CMD (Windows key + R, Type CMD and hit enter)
  2. Type: ping -n 20 [Datacenter ip address] without the brackets
  3. Press enter
    PD: To check your Datacenter IP adress go to https://arrstatus.com/

So I've been playing ffxiv more or less like a singleplayer jrpg. Now in order to do The Converging Light I need 460 ilvl and I am at 421 . Do I need to just grind dungeons for a while or is there a quicker way ?

Do the Eden and nier raids for gear while buying gear with allegory tomes

Alternatively by high quality exarchic off the market board

hellos,i am new to the game, is there anyone who can tell me how to play arcanist better? i am level 12 at the moment

faint flare
#

Weskalber has levelling rotations in video form

outer star
glossy flare
#

at that level all you really gotta do is keep up your dots and spam ruin

faint flare
#

Dots up, spam ruin, have pet out

slender sphinx
#

the reason i ask is because i keep dying when theres more than 1 or 2 enemies

faint flare
#

Keep your gear up to date

slender sphinx
#

i do

leaden ginkgo
#

i didn't understand this skill
it will extend the galvanize effect like refresh the shield or what

faint flare
real seal
#

makes your ST shield AoE

faint flare
#

Including duration

glossy flare
#

if your target has the effect it will spread it to party members nearby

#

specifically copy it

slender sphinx
#

or maybe theres a better class for me to play as a beginner? i was told it was one of the best

glossy flare
#

no, Arcanist is fine

slender sphinx
#

i see

faint flare
#

If you're dying to a single enemy then your gear Is low or you're not keeping your gcd rolling

leaden ginkgo
#

so if im the only one have it and use this skill
all people around me will get it too ?

slender sphinx
#

gcd?

faint flare
#

If you target yourself with it

faint flare
slender sphinx
#

i see

#

i always have my emeral carbuncle out but the enemies usually decide to attack me instead

faint flare
#

Pets can't tank

wispy basalt

lol

slender sphinx
#

i heard there was a tank pet later in the arcanist path

faint flare
#

Nope

#

Again, pets can't tank anymore

wispy basalt
#

nope there isn't a tank pet

there is a more defensive oriented pet but it's not a tank

Topaz used to be a tank pet but it couldn't tank for shit

The Titan egi used to function somewhat like that, but they got reworked

ty

slender sphinx

should i just do the leves or whatever side quests for gil and then buy better gear or something?

I see the Ifrit egi get used a lot

faint flare

Just keep taking gear from the story

#

Ifirit is at lv30

slender sphinx
#

thats what i was doing

faint flare
#

And do your job quests as well

#

Especially when you hit 15 for the other pet

slender sphinx
#

job quests, so there is more things to do at the guild?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

They're mandatory to do

slender sphinx

now i know

faint flare
#

They give you gear and skills

ember vault

they also help ya get a feel for everything thats in a town

And eventually your job upgrade

100 lv cap after 3 years Wave_vibe

It is until all the people who don't know how the fuck to heal play Sage and make DF feel abysmal

heavy wadi
#

why you should get 10/10/10 in zadnor

open rivet
leaden ginkgo
#

Not gonna lie, if they were gonna cap off at 99, this'd be the expansion to do it.

#

Given its the... you know, finale of the game's overarching story.

open rivet
#

post-game to get to 99 :^)

wispy basalt
#

prepare yourself game ends after 3 years pepepray

faint flare
#

It wont

open coral
#

If they go in keeping with other Asian games, there won't be a cap to levels. It'll just keep increasing until the game ends.

#

We could easily end up with max level being 200+ by that point.

real seal
#

they could just do the big squish

leaden ginkgo
#

Not gonna lie, I'll be amazed if the crafting classes don't end off at 99. If anything, it'd make the most sense for them to be capped off at such a number since they're just tradeskills.

open coral
#

The only reason WoW could do a major level squish is because their system isn't story-centric. You can skip literally entire expansions-worth of content and still know what's going on over there. In XIV, that's not an option.

real seal
open coral
#

It's not though. That's what I'm trying to explain.

heavy wadi
#

that wouldn’t work with how the story is paced.

real seal
#

nothing changes in pacing except xp rewards

twilit arch
#

truthfully not the place to really discuss it anyway

open coral
#

If they cut the number of levels, they'd have to change a whole lot of things, including what level various instances are accessible at, ilevels that are eligible for content, and so on.

real seal
#

yeah agreed

twilit arch
#

since its a what if discussion on something that's not likely to be happening anytime soon

open coral
#

True

leaden ginkgo
#

for entiry subs i have to wait until its finished ti renew ?
if no how to renew it
it will renew itself.??

honest anvil
#

in TEA, for limit cut, what decides CC’s dash direction? sometimes it doesnt dash backwards ><

gritty oracle
faint flare
#

He spawns behind the odd number person then Dashes to the next even number person

twilit arch
#

On mogstation if it says "recurring" under the service account status, it will automatically renew when your current time is up

faint flare
#

So he'll spawn behind #1, then dash at #2

#

Rinse repeat

velvet lance
#

Does anyone know the order of the cinematics for this game? I've finished ARR and I think I'm on the bit in the middle, but I just like watching trailers and stuff before starting a DLC

faint flare
#

They're all in order

#

Cause the story is linear

open coral
faint flare
#

Arr > heavensward > stormblood > shadowbringers

velvet lance
#

I meant the cinematics on youtube, not the dialogue cutscenes ofc

open coral
#

They... go in order of the expansions...

#

There's only five (including Endwalker).

velvet lance
#

I thought there was a couple for each expansion no?

#

Oh right...

open coral
#

There's one per expansion.

honest anvil
#

so if CC doesnt dash backwards at even numbers, the only explanation is those evens stood in front of the odds?

velvet lance
#

My bad, thanks

faint flare
#

Just 1 cinematic trailer per expansion

modest igloo
#

Well there is 2 in arr

faint flare

But it takes place at the same time as the first one

# velvet lance My bad, thanks

You might have been thinking of the teaser trailers, which there have traditionally been two of leading up to the final full trailer. But those are basically the full trailer, but cut as shorter trailers to build hype. The full trailer has the same footage + all the stuff they were hiding.

velvet lance

Ohhhh yeah that's probably what it was

hmm, when is it safe for evens to move? as CC appears behind odds? or earlier?

Do you own the game?

Do you own the base game?

faint flare

There you go

Yoy dont

open coral

You need the Starter Edition as well.

You can't use dlc for a game you don't own

you get 2 dlcs for free

The Free Trial is not the same as the full base game.

It's a free trial.

@modest igloo cheers brother

leaden ginkgo
#

Someone be a dear and remind me: What's being affected by the stat squish again? The increase of power per level dropping, damage numbers going down a chunk, overall values and such going down... anything else? Something about it being 'easier' to level or something too?

faint flare
#

Basically everything 50-80..
Damage, hp, exp etc

slate arrow
#

Everything.

faint flare
#

For us and enemies

slate arrow
#

That's why they can pass it through an algorithm rather than needing to manually tweak it

faint flare
#

Amount of aggro number generated so it doesn't overflow

leaden ginkgo
#

Overlfow then reset to 0. :D

faint flare
#

It happened

And there's even been overflow for damage when someone has Shields for more than thheir HP

polar flame
#

I read somewhere that you should be able to collect materials and give them to your grand company

faint flare
#

They get hit twice and die

polar flame
#

where can I see the list of items?

faint flare
#

Timers > grand company

#

For what the company wants today

polar flame
#

Timers monkaS

faint flare
#

You need to rank up enough to unlock the ability to turn stuff in

polar flame
#

oh

#

I haven't done anything so I probably can't see it yet

#

what's the best way to rank up?

faint flare
#

Do your grand company hunting log and levelling roulette for seals

#

Arr fates give some seals

mild ermine
#

Does anyone have a list of essences and drop locations

leaden ginkgo
#

^ I would like this too, I need to stockpile for RPR.

polar flame

@faint flaredo the seals help me rank up?

Just need starter if you already got shadowbringers

viral beacon
#

aight

polar flame
#

so why do you want to level up your rank in the GC?

#

better items?

boreal storm
#

More GC seals, more things to buy, prove your superiority to others

glossy flare
#

one of the easiest ways to get glamour prisms is to buy them via GC seals

faint flare
#

More items, access to daily company turn ins for crafting and gathering , access to Turning in gear for seals, access to squadrons

slate arrow
#

squadrons

#

Which are basically more customizable trusts, and also stupid busted for low level dungeons

#

*once you level them and their stances

storm sapphire
#

out of curiousity, how do you know valor increases by 3%?

leaden ginkgo
#

so people keep saying msq roulette is the best for poetics but like

is there any point in running them after you claim the daily bonus

glossy flare
#

no

lavish sierra
#

dude why is this Shock and Awe quest so hard out of no where? i swear ive had such an easy time with the game and now these normal enemies are killing me so fast. i dont know what i did wrong

leaden ginkgo
#

are there any other sources

leaden ginkgo

faint flare
lavish sierra
#

most of my gear is 50 but i have a couple 47s and such

glossy flare
#

There's your issue

#

And I meant ilvl, not character level

lavish sierra
#

ngl kinda a new player so i didnt know what that meant

faint flare
#

Your gear is shit, go by ironworks in mor Dhona/main cities sundry splendors

#

Especially a weapon

glossy flare
#

Still, you are in post ARR quests right now and since everything happens at the same character level (50 in your case) gear has its own distinction

#

You can check the ilvl of a given piece of gear by hoevering over it

modest igloo
zinc orbitBOT
glossy flare
#

For example at the end of the 2.0 msq you are probably around ilvl 50 while ARR has items up to ilvl 130

#

So do what Vinyl said and spend some poetics on ironworks stuff

halcyon tulip
#

Do your lvl 50 jobquest and open The coffer you get as a reward

that too, but ironworks is still way better

In general what are you supposed to sell on youe inventory ? Is it those miscellany items ?

jade quartz
#

I’m not really sure what you mean. If you want to know what sells well on the marketboard then you’ll have to do most of your price checking yourself.

#

Item categories aren’t that useful as information so you’ll have to clarify what specifically you mean by miscellany items

what should i spend my wolf marks

cant convert it to gil ?

Whatever you like. Can’t convert it to gil.

jade quartz
#

You don’t get any repeat gear

faint flare
#

They're for the different roles

#

Gear starts being role specific

jade quartz
#

You get all the different pieces of gear needed to equip one or two jobs

twilit arch
#

also generally you're getting higher ilvl accessories/gear during post msq

#

even if its all blue

faint flare
#

Colour means nothing

#

Item level is everything

twilit arch
#

the darklight gear given at the start of post ARR isn't the same item level as the later accessories given

lavish sierra
#

its been item comparring it and its either worse or the literal same gear

Typically one quest offers gear for the physical jobs then the next gives gear for the magic jobs

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.

maybe im just thinking about it too much but its getting to the point where it feels like im doing something wrong

You may be picking the wrong accessories for your role.

leaden ginkgo
lavish sierra
jade quartz
#

That’s not what matters

cunning loom
#

you're in the post-arr quests which is typically considered to be the slowest part of the game

faint flare
#

Accessories aren't role locked until 60+

jade quartz
#

You shouldn’t be looking at defense stats

#

What is your job?

lavish sierra
faint flare
#

If you're a say, a Dragoon and have equipped something with Intelligence on it then you have the wrong geae

jade quartz
#

Then you should always pick gear with strength on it

#

Disregard other stats

faint flare
#

Samurai wants gear with strength of it and nothing else

#

Otherwise it's useless to you

twilit arch
#

basically focus on gear that has "striking" in the name

lavish sierra
twilit arch
#

or slaying

#

secondary stats aren't important while leveling

faint flare
#

Crit is a substats and you don't care for substats until 80

jade quartz
twilit arch
#

your main stat (strength) is more important

jade quartz
#

Strength is your main stat

faint flare
#

Weapon damage >>>>>> main stat (strength) >>>>>>>>>>>> substats like crit

#

If it doesn't have strength on it then it's literally useless to you

jade quartz
#

You want the gear with the most strength

lavish sierra
jade quartz
#

Which will also be the highest item level gear with strength

faint flare
#

Like Kael said, gear you want will have "Of Striking/Slaying " in its name

jade quartz
#

Mostly it will, not always

faint flare
#

Like 99% it says striking/Slaying

jade quartz
#

Like the soldiery gear you get from quests around there doesn’t

lavish sierra
#

yeah some of my gear is "of casting" and shit like that so ill change that

faint flare
#

Yeah that's literally giving you nothing

jade quartz
#

Yeah that gear is offering you basically nothing

lavish sierra
#

thats so sad

faint flare
#

You're basically have nothing in that slot

lavish sierra
#

feels bad man

faint flare
#

The recommended gear button on the character window will mostly be correct

lavish sierra
#

didnt even know that button existed until then

#

if im playing 1 character only, is there any reason why i should get Standard subscription over entry? (i dont know if u get veteran rewards with entry).

slate arrow
#

not really, vet rewards also apply with entry

severe jay
#

Oh nice, looks like ill be getting entry then.

shut panther
#

um

#

does diurnal sect even do anything before 34

faint flare
#

No

shut panther
#

weird

#

I assume getting it at 30 and it not doing anything for 4 levels is a relic of pruning

faint flare
#

Yep

#

It used to do like increase healing and/or lower aggro

serene holly
#

hello friends, are there any cool mods I could install to improve textures/graphics quality?

faint flare
#

G/reshade

#

Are the main shader things

magic vessel
#

So if I comeplete this roulette I will get 7105 XP, 6000 Gil and 2058 seals? If I do it as a Tank I'll get extra XP, Gil and another 411 seals?

faint flare
#

No

warm snow
#

Other way around

faint flare
#

You'll get 7k xp if you're a tank

#

Any job will get the daily bonus of gil. Xp and 400 seals

gusty island
#

how big of a difference does a high item level make when running synced content?

faint flare
#

Daily roulette bonus is above the adventure in need line

faint flare
sterile lark
#

if i buy a subscription for a month just to try out some of the locked features i lack as a trial account, what happens when it expires? do i revert to a trial account or am i just like, locked out of the game, or?

gusty island
#

cool so i just suck butt then

magic vessel
#

So I'll only get 411 Seals by doing the routlette?

sterile lark
#

damn

gusty island
#

having a hard time even keeping up with tanks tbh

sterile lark
#

ugh i really want to use /tell and have friends and join free companies but i do not know if I'm gonna be into this game long term or not

#

thanks for the info, tho

#

will it ever be available again?

hey does anyone know how to add a friend if hes from a diffrent server?

faint flare

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

viral beacon
#

does it usually take long

faint flare
#

It'd based on people online

#

So

gusty island
#

Other party stuff hasnt been this drastic thankfully (that's why I was wondering if ilvl makes a difference) but I have no idea what I'm doing wrong

faint flare
#

Black mage doesn't have it's big stuff until later levels

#

You're just freeze spamming at qarns level

magic vessel
#

Is there a way to track the hunting log so I don't have to keep the window open?

faint flare
#

It tells you the progress for that mob when you kill them

#

And they have a mark on their head

gusty island
#

Oh, Freeze. That reminds me I totally forgot the job quest at 35 oops.
There's one thing I'm able to remedy ASAP, at least

magic vessel
boreal storm
#

Yep

magic vessel
#

Thats what that is!

#

Thank you!

if i have an account since before, can i use that on steam? if i choose to go by steam, do i skip their launcher? do i not have to go thru they create acount system?

abstract vapor
#

the last few days I have been getting this error anyone knows how to fix this

faint flare
#

If you brought on non steam you can't use steam

#

If you buy on steam you MUST use steam

serene holly
faint flare
#

Whatever you want, I don't use it

umbral egret
#

hey so i tried to transfer to a diffrent homeworld but it doesn't let me select my current character for transfer

gusty island

Do I still need Blizzard 2 once I have Freeze?
(My gut says no)

Magical Melee DPS, clearly

But thats why we have Red Mage...

gusty island
#

And spamming in town

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah.

wooden glen
#

While leveling, how often should I update my gear?

#

It really wasn't much of an issue through ARR and HW, but I'm starting to feel like I might be hitting unadvertised ilvl walls in SB.

faint flare
#

The story and job quests give you the bare minimum

#

You can spend poetics at each old level cap for the best gear for that period that lasts you 5 levels

wooden glen
#

That's what I needed to hear, thanks. I'm only at the beginning of SB, so the MSQ rewards are worse than the 60 poetic gear I'm wearing, but my actual level is 65 RDM/67 GNB, and I was having a lot of trouble on the latest RDM class quest.

gusty island
#

At lv 36 BLM, when I get a thundercloud proc, should I use it on T1 or T2?

faint flare
#

2 foe aoe

wooden glen
#

So, I'll either save it until I get further into the MSQ, or just drop 100K on gear to hold me over until 70 poetics.

faint flare
#

1 for single targrt

gusty island
#

Ohh so same logic as without the proc, got it

clever ether

I got to Heavensward yesterday and was able to obtain MCH. Now Im 35 and wondering how to level it to 50 again and continue the msq?

is there a guide to cleaning out your armory chest

#

because I'm not sure how to deal with having pieces I'm not sure if I want to keep for glam or not

sick finch
#

someone mentioned before turning them into your GC

faint flare
#

You can basically get everything back so do whatever with it

leaden ginkgo
#

okay then

#

it's mostly HW dungeon gear so

#

esp from Gubal and Vault

#

I do have some Aery pieces too

#

aghhhhh glam items is tough

faint flare
#

Toss glamour stuff into the glamour dresser

leaden ginkgo
#

it's about 200+/400 and I haven't reached ShB what if there's more pieces

boreal storm
#

Then just remove the stuff you like less

frozen wind
#

toss glamour stuff into glamour dresser

#

but

#

remember that you have a limit

#

so dont toss everything in there

#

i kind of wish we didnt have a limit and they'd give us more glamour dresser space

leaden ginkgo
#

ugh

#

I think I'll take the time to sort through my armory chest one way or another

#

I still have some Ironworks pieces I got attached too arghhhh

frozen wind
#

maybe well get more space in endwalker

leaden ginkgo
frozen wind
#

player base has been asking for more and im about to hit my cap

#

then again it might break the game

#

;_;

leaden ginkgo
#

glam plates also

#

damn

frozen wind
#

^^^ YES

#

the amount of times i had to rebuy dye because i ran out of room

cyan kelp
open ember
#

You can dye pieces in the glam dresser too

#

And it'll stay that color

boreal storm
#

You can also dye things that are attached to glam plates

cyan kelp
frozen wind
#

I know but the issue is that

open ember
#

No I mean like

frozen wind
#

what ame said

open ember
#

Not the actually glam plate

#

But obv if that's if you plan on keeping it in there

#

Just pray we have more space in Endwalker

#

I might have to buy a 4th retainer to hold all these glams

cyan kelp
open ember
cyan kelp
empty ember
#

I come from WoW. How does transmog farming and transmogs work in general? Is there a solid way to work towards "collecting them all"?

celest snow
#

is there a way to get notified of when the endwalker collectors box is available for pre-order again?

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.
