there isn’t a separate australian store
How do I cancel waiting to be revived and just die?
anything that EU can get is available for australian sqex accounts
@manic rune ahh i see what you mean
@elder pagoda click the notification on the bottom right and click return or whatever
should be an orange indicator on screen if you closed out the menu
Some dragon near thancred one shot me
what cerb said yeah
how many yellow scrips do you get per custom delivery around?
it's indicated on the custom delivery window for each NPC, depends what collectability the item is at
+this might also be helpful to compare https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Custom_Delivery it seems up to date
thanks for that. i think this is the short term work around.
wish i'd known to come ask here for help the last week or so when the upgrades were 60% off lol
In “Amalj'aa Wrong Places” I can’t speak with thancred because he’s next to some level 50 beast that one shots me with a tail whip??
I tried casting sleep
Just got me killed again
@open oriolewhat would you say is the best way to get master recipes? only yellow scrips?
and which are the best to try to get?
(for alchemy)
I'm looking to craft the top pieces which sell for the biggest gil
All master recipe books are bought with yellow scrips. Master 3 is required for HW job quests. It is a good idea to just buy them all though.
ye I just bought to speed to 80 quick
Well, that’s sort of incorrect. Master 1 and 2 are bought with unique items in Mor Dhona.
the level 50 monster is most likely a hunt mark
I'm looking to craft exarchic and whatever is the new endwalkers armor when it comes out
so I already got weaver to 80
now getting alchemy to 80
and I think I'll need leather worker and goldsmith as well
to make it viable for the big $$
How do I complete a grand company hunt log rank? Do I have to do it for all classes in rank 1?
It’s best to level all crafters at once. Even Yoshida recommends it. As for EW crafts, they will likely require a new master book to be released with the expansion.
so when you get a master book does it give you a random recipe?
or do you get to choose?
GC Hunt log is different across classes, there is only one set for each rank
How do I decide which grand co to join? Lvl 34 thurmatage
whichever one you like more
On my way to black mage
Grand Companies are purely cosmetic. Pick which one you think is coolest.
yes
Does it show up under the Hunting Log?
Each book has a predetermined list of recipes they give you.
ah I see, so should I just aim for the highest master recipe books to get the recipes which have the highest selling items?
It does. An icon representing your GC appears underneath the other class icons.
and how long would you say it takes to get the yellow scrips for the highest level books?
Doesn’t take too long. Master 8 costs 1,200 scrips if I remember correctly? Sounds like a lot but completing your weekly custom deliveries should be more than enough to buy one.
@jovial quarrywhere do I get the items for those though? it doesn't say in the log
like for the custom deliveries themselves
They’re always sold at a vendor in each area. Always pretty close to the client, under their Items category.
Eastern La Noscea in a shack south of Wineport.
the 'gatekeeper' on the map?
Yeah
@jovial quarryit doesn't have the areas in the log, but I guess I can just google a map
btw do collectibles also give yellow scrips?
OOH THAT! Thank you thank you
that icon beside it means that you get yellows right?
like a little yellow square thing
do tabletop housing meals have infinite use?
thank you
but some people manage to incorporate the empty plates after u consume the meals into housing designs
Yeah that icon is for scrips. As for the clients, Zhloe and Adkiragh’s vendors are also in Idyllshire near the scrip vendor. M’naago’s is in Rhalgr’s Reach near the scrip vendors as well. Kurenai’s is in Tamamizu near the mender. Kai-Shirr’s is in Eulmore in the aetherplaza. Ehll Tou’s and Charlemend’s respective vendors are the scrip vendors nearest each one.
@jovial quarrythanks for all the help appreciated
New player here trying to get into the game but really bored by Marauder atm. Seems like I only hit two buttons and it's very slow. Is there a fun DPS class for early game to get me through the slog?
does it take hundreds of tries before you can obtain the No.2 Type B crate in copied factory?
@willow bone thats how all classes are in early levels
but warrior is the lowest apm of the tanks
and tanks have very simple combos
Yeah I feel like tank was a mistake and I should change to DPS
I was taking a look at pugilist
then switch if you dont like it
but pugilist will play the same way at early levels
How early is early?
Got it. I'm 22 so maybe I should stick it out
you can get it first try if you’re lucky
most people just hit pass on the crates if they have it already

but if you’re in a copied factory run with a lot of new players it might take a couple of tries
it’s reliant on rng loot rolls, after all
I have a question. I was bullied in an alliance raid and promptly kicked simply for typing in chat and commmenting
what did you say
and what did they say
which raid?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
not much you can do except report them
why not?
is there something that stops me from reporting if ive been kicked?
no?
because the buttons are all greyed out
system > support desk
write down their names and world and time it happened and restart your game
They just got mad because I was commenting then defended myself when they satrted harassing
alright I clipped it in a video I hope i got all of it
But like really turned the party against me
please censor other player names
Alright.
when can you get past this gate in bozja? i assume a certain rank?
Oh i said REKT when half of our entire raid on all three aliances were killed from a single boss attack
I think that's whatset him off
myself include
I died from that attack
hi relatively new getting started on retainers now that i am no longer on a trial account. If i am not investing a huge amount of time into a crafting profession is a gathering retainer still useful for gil making or is the stuff combat professions bring back more useful if i dont process it much further. As far as i understand making a profitable crafter is quite the undertaking and nothing you just "do on the side"
Ah wrong channel though my bad
You'll want to level a gatherer at least to farm daily maps
thats an easy 30-50k daily
i see
for crafting
thanks, do they scale well as in if i have 2 diffrent ones thats 60-100k per day?
general recommendation is 1 gatherer 1 combat
you get to harvest 1 a day
no matter the class
for crafting a common thing people do is craft coffee biscuits to turn in for the leve quest
that's at lvl 78 though
but Culinarian is the one class that doesnt really depend on other crafters
if you turn in HQs its 6k per quests and you can turn it in 3 times for 18k per levequest
although you probably want to max out at least mining and botany
if you want to make money when the new expansion comes out
plenty of money to be made when new expansions or patches drop
Is it common for people to be so damn squishy and high maintenance to heal in Aurum Vale?
Didn't matter how much heal I spammed as WHM. Folks were losing HP way too fast
are they eating the morbol fruit at 3 stacks
I think at least 2 of the other members were. But I kept spamming and spamming heals, wasn't enough
then they probably werent
Feels like they were exposing themselves too much
is the tank undergeared?
auum
Only 1/10 tanks seem to be using damage mitigation
then tell them to use mit
First time in a while, ran a dungeon. He was super duper low maintenance
that hurts a lot
Diff dungeon ofc, but this tank, didn't have to use too many on him
its extremely hard if people dont eat their fruits
aurum vale hits especially hard bc of the level/ilvl sync
Imma take a break and try again
That group was awful tbh
What's the recommended ilevel for it?
you should be checking to see if theyre not undergeared, if theyre cycling cds properly, if theyre doing mechs properly, if you yourself arent undergeared
Does a vote kick in an alliance raid require majority, or entire party consent?
@kind crater only your own party vote kicks
its majority
iirc it syncs you down to ilvl 49
and that’s what makes it difficult
which SB raid drop the green book for relic?
You guys have any recommendations on/tips for targeting?
I find tab targeting kind of unreliable in terms of targeting what I intend to, and when clicking I'll often accidentally click on a party member rather than the enemy, especially in hectic fights.
I also have trouble acquiring new targets and noticed I mysteriously drop my target sometimes somehow (even when the enemy I've been targeting is still alive)
Clicking or tabbing is usually they way to go
if there are too many targets on screen
I think there’s an option on targeting under character options that lets you hold X to target the closest teammate to your mouse
you can angle your camera to reduce the humber of targets and tab through fewer targets
do you mean this one?
I've tried to use it in the past and it just seems to ignore where my mouse is at
Have you tried changing the options under it like filter targets ?
Mine is set to party members and works pretty reliably
i have it set up like this since im only really trying to target enemies
i think this is default
Can I solo these as a WHM? 
yes most of the fates at last but would be faster if you get a party or a few friends to help
I recommend putting up a PF and seeing if anyone bites.
So once I turn lvl 50, is MSQ roulette the fastest way to level up per minute?
The boss ones are often harder to solo IME; I'd advise avoiding those.
Or should I just move onto lvl 51+ dungeons?
you are lvl 80 you should be able to solo all lvl 60 fates
do the roulette once and run aurum vale till 51
MSQ Roulette is solid once a day. Other than that, grinding the highest-level dungeon available.
Got it
._. is it faster to just do CE from zadnor to complete the 30/30 relic quest?
Depends. Which one?
the SB/ShB quests
The Eden raid set is faster to raid, generally. The Alex and Omega raid sets are easier to do in Zadnor.
HW is easy cuz fate/CE seems goes faster there lol
Yeah, Zone 1 is by far the easiest.
i mean zone 2 for fate is easy but the CE so hard to find
One more q. Seeing how endgame level is soon to be 90, is there really any point in unlocking more than the minimum # of level50 dungeons for roulette purposes seeing how it'd be better to up your chances of using the roulette to wind up in a 60 or 70?
For the 50/60/70 roulette that is
there is little difference because the 50/60/70 roulettes is crap for exp but has the highest tomestone bonus.
basically as well as expansion launch/tomestone update
how do i get to limsa from Gridania?
By airship, but the story will take you there eventually (around msq lvl 15)
So just keep doing msq
ohhh nooo. i wanted to go there now so i can fish
that sucks
im really excited about fishing
thank you!
Msq up to that point is just a few hours max
👍
So you're close ;)
awesome

Is the free trial meme the best thing to come out of ffxiv?
Where can you buy armor with this? The stuff in eulmore needs another type of token to buy armor with it there
With those you buy Crystarium gear, not cryptlurker
Vendor should be the same though
Just for the record, it's the npc with the "tomestone exchange" tag. Aymark iirc
hey, new player, I can't start "we must rebuild" quest, because "all classes and jobs (Lv.4)
but I have no idea how to do that, I'm kind of stuck
youre not level 4
yes, but I don't know where to go to level up, or get other quests
do sidequests around
are those the red exclamation marks?
all quests around me are red, and I don't see any other ones on map
sorry, I'm just really confused where to go
there should be like a million in your starting city
or you could just kill a bunch of mobs
ah, went outside and I see them now
thanks
two dumb questions, those are all delivery quest, are quests different than like in wow, where you just kill stuff? also, is there voice acting? I've heard there is, just wondering if it's further down the story line
you dont because that would be awful
plenty of "kill and collect bear ass quests" in this game
i will use it for afking
@odd bolt theres a ton of quests where you have to deliver things you have to be more specific, and yes the most important scenes are voice acted
also yeah theres a little bit of voice acting in the base game
but since it was made with scraps immediately after the end of 1.0 so there isnt that much
@leaden ginkgo afking in what
in what
after 2.5 tho the entire cast changes voice
and most of the msq quests should have voice acting
you cant afk in a dungeon
not dungeon
eureka
my fairy heals me and my player auto attack broil 3
thats it
you know it would be like 10x slower to macro it than to just spam it yourself
/ac "broil iii" <wait.3>
/ac "broil iii" <wait.3>
/ac "broil iii" <wait.3>
put that 14 times
then /micon "broil iii" on line 15
and then press the macro again every 42 seconds
thanks buddy
how do i choose a "job"? i only chose to have a sword at the char creation
gladiator turns into paladin when you do the level 30 class quest
if you wanna change into other jobs/classes tho you can do that starting from level 10
I really liked samurai, how do I get to that job?
hello! is there anyone on malboro right now who can invite me and a friend to a party? we're both on the free trial right now and can't make a party
own stormblood and be level 50
quest can be obtained in ul'dah
so quite a bit off, okay, thanks
In the Azim Steppe I've just || left the Dawn Throne to return to Mol Iloh || and I have three Aether Currents left to acquire, two of which are open world
Would I be correct to assume the last two are in the area called The Towering Still?
look it up
One you might be missing is in the caves on the west side of the map.
But we can’t know for sure unless you post a picture of your aethercurrents to see which exact slots are missing
You mean the diamond icons in the aether current tab right?
Yep
Is the rising event here
No
Wynne
Of course my wifi died
So you only get a a exp buff for ur first level 80 you get?
Why am I not surprised that my wifi died as soon as I went to do that
anyone know how many rathalos scales drop from the great hunt each time?
No?
But yeah my last two currents are in Towering Still, which I've yet to visit
Does MSQ take me there?
If you’re talking about the armoury experience boost you always get it when you’re on a class that’s NOT your highest
It has nothing to do with having a class at level 80
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
it decreases at 70
@obsidian patio
Try going to the 4th and 5th on the list.
uhh is it maint night or something? or did Behemoth server just go down?
No maintenance happening currently
I think servers just crashed
I just got booted saying server wasn't responding >.>
Sounds like a network node somewhere went down, if I had to guess.
Since usually multiple datacenters usually don’t have server outages at the same time
was on last boss of a raid too T_T
So I'm getting close to dlc content. Should I just progress the same way as before for gear and everything
Story will be keeping you well geared for the most part, yes.
Accessories might lag behind a bit since they’re sometimes put in side quests instead of the story
What about armor for after 50? I've been wearing the level 50 clothes i got from my job mission but I've noticed I'm like half the hp of everyone else in raids at level 50 lol
Towards the end MSQ starts giving you accessories that are somewhat decent
Oh
You're there?
Wait where are you in MSQ
Rocking the Castrum?
Or
Post-ARR?
The highest ilvl gear for level 50 is 130, which is augmented ironworks
is that something I just buy or do a raid for?
People with gear better than that get synced to about those stats assuming there isn’t a lower specified item level for level 50 content.
Most everyone in those raids is way past where you are so they're synced to i130
or from msq lol
You can buy them
oh sweet
Bought with poetics in Mor Dhona, which are earned from level 50/60/70 content
oh yeah i don't have enough for that then lmao
Augmented Ironworks is bought from two vendors in Mor Dhona with poetics, or Rowena's Representatives by the major city aetherytes
Have you done
Uhh
Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium?
can you only "farm" poetics via raids and stuff? or is there an efficient way to get them?
MSQ Roulette, Alliance Raid Roulette, and 50/60/70 Dungeon Roulette at your level, then you can farm the MSQ dungeons or the Alliance Raids
I don't know if any of the 50 dungeons give poetics as a reward like Aetherochemical Research Facility does
Nah, ARF gives 150 since it has no gear.
oh boy
Second best is 100 from each of the last-patch dungeons for each expansion
Oh
Also the 24-mans
well, back to the grind I guess. I've noticed the xp I got from msq dropped heavily too after I beat Gaius
So is there any 50 dungeon that gives poetics?
All of them
That's because you're in patch content
So
Anyways
Are you on KB/M or controller?
KB/M
oh I'm not in game, it booted me due to server going down lmao
yeah I bought the weapon so far, people told me that earlier
I think i got... maybe 500 left
Next on your list should probably be accessories since your left side is all i90
Accessory upgrades will let you do all the patch content
If you want pure stats though, Chest and Pants slot are your next upgrade
so um, really dumb question, what's "patch content" refer to?
The inbetween stuff between expansions
"patch content" refers to level cap stuff
!faq contentunlock
I've already done my daily roulettes and Tails but still need more poetics
oh okay, so it's the transition phase
should I wait until the reset or farm ARF
okay then
:^)
alrighty, thanks for the advice o7
does all healers takes same materia ?
Probably LotA and Syrcus since they're fast and give I think 150 poetics base
ok then
Versus Void Ark series which takes longer and I believe has a base 100 poetics
Basically, yeah.
AST likes a lower GCD but they all basically have the same melding priorities
Piety to comfortable amount > spell speed to preferred GCD > Crit > Determination/Direct Hit
Direct Hit is more damage than Determination, but does not boost healing.

which should I farm for poetics arf or crystal tower raids
I need a lot of poetics
ARF and CT raids give the same amount
ARF however has a higher first time poetics bonus
ARF it is then
ARF is 150 base, CT raids is 100 base so your choice
cool Thanks
CT raids give 150 I think
what's all the animal/creature themed suits in the game? i know of a few like the toad suit and vanu vanu one, but does anyone have a list of all of them and how to obtain them?
You're right
Piety to comfortable amount > spell speed to preferred GCD > Crit > Determination/Direct Hit
Pay attention to the stat caps of each item
stat cap
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
Bottom of the picture
thanks
can you get field notes if u only get silver medal? 
i don’t think so...?
i read about someone getting mad bc they were farming notes solo and only got silver on a skirmish
Party only.
For the lvl 50 allegan poetics armor, where do I go in Gridania?
You can get notes from silver
Rowena's Representative, next to the Gunbreaker unlock quest
She'll appear on the map as a blue icon
In Limsa they're to the right of the entrance to the markets, and in Ul'dah they're in the left corner immediately after you exit the aetheryte plaza
All three sell Augmented Ironworks, and unlike the two vendors at Mor Dhona they sell every piece of equipment, and it automatically shows the equipment for your job
Thanks!
Do you already have the Augmented Ironworks weapon for your class/job?
Armor priority is chest/pants, head/hands/feet, then belt and finally accessories
Left side > Right side essentially
which sect is better for ast
Diurnal
not nocturnal ?
Shield is stronger, but if a SCH is in the party you can switch
if im solo
Nocturnal is harder to play because you need to know fights so you can time your shields to mitigate damage
ok Thanks
Someone doing POTD floor 40?
Just go queue up for it
40 minutes queue already 🙂
To be fair it is 4 am on east coast NA.
oh
here it says i'm at a fixed party?
is that right?
but like i'm on queue
is that right?
Fixed party means you had a premade party with you or you're solo. Since you're in queue, that means you're in a matched party. As in, using duty finder to fill those spots.
Hey guys, I'm currently looking for a company to join so that I can get my chocobo
The MSQ makes you join one
You are probably mistaking free companies with grand companies
Free Company and Grand Company are different things. FC is a player guild. GC is a faction, more or less.
Free Companies = Guilds
Grand Companies = story stuff you do eventually
The grand company chosen is largely aesthetic
I joined the immortal flame
Twin Adders for Gridania, Maelstrom for Limsa, Flames for Ul'dah
great, then you should have a new
in the Immortal Flames HQ
But the quartermaster says I need to join a company
nicee
!faq mounts
'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.
A free company is entirely optional so it's not that
Just follow the steps outlined by kupo
Maybe it's company seals that you read
Hhhhh, I don't know what I'm doing wrong
What's your current msq?
Hang on lemme login
Need clarification global world visit is coming pre endwalker, but OCE servers will wait untill like 6.1+?
Correct
Okay, I figured it out, the NPC wasn't spawning for me
can anyone tell me how to sort items on the mb by ilvl? i want to look for glamour pretty much
or not ilvl but required level
that should be the default sorting method
It gets sorted by ilvl in descending order which, incidentally, also sorts it by lvl
i think ive changed it but i dont remember how to change it back
actually nvm. i can just scroll
How do I dye something
right click the item -> dye @snow smelt
Set that to 1 and it’ll show only glam pieces.
cool thanks reze
Not every piece of gear can be dyed
Oh, thank you
That piece can be dyed normally but it seems you haven’t unlocked it atm. Dyes are unlocked via a blue quest in Vesper Bay.
hm but yeah, what Reze says
the little dot in the upper right of the item icon means it can be dyed
The tooltip can say whether the gear is dyable as well

no
You can only ever have 2k max at any given time
But there is no limit on how much you can earn
What's teh reset timer for 😮
The timer you see there is for the most recent tomestone
Which should have a weekly limit a bit further down
That's the weekly reset timer
Poetics are legacy tokens, there's no limit to how many you can collect but there is a fixed cap
Tomestones of Revelation are the only ones with a weekly cap
Which is 450
But you can still have more than 450 of them, maxed at 2k like the rest
and are reserved for getting current content gear
If you want to be a bit more cynical it's a player retention mechanic for current content
Nothing cynical about that, it's exactly that
oh
if you're not level 80, don't worry about any other tomestones except poetics
If you do all your relevant roulettes the weekly tomes are capped in two days
So for the hardcore it's not all that stressful
You need to complete your level 10 class quest to unlock the class change system
Level 10 quest
the latter
Rogue will start at level 1 again but 1-15 is basically just do your hunting log and class quests
Does the skysteel quest where you have to upgrade it twice, have to be completed with the original tool? I just completed it with a different skysteel tool and it won't let me proceed. Throw away the original tool? Cancel quest and start over? Do it with the original tool even though I don't want it?
Has to be the same tool
Each tool has different turn ins
Crafts can only be done with the tool
And gathers can only be done with the tool
yo if my friend boots to 70 and skips to shadowbringers whats a good place i could go to introduce him to the game
like dungeon trial wise do you think
Nowhere in particular
Can I cancel the quest and start over?
Since you're just yeeting him into the deep end
Yes you keep the crafts/gathered materials
did not go well
This is why we don't recommend buying story skips
A) you skip the story
B) coupled with a level skip you just get a high level player that doesn't know how to play
to unlock zadnor do i need to complete 5.4 or 5.3?
you want them to learn how to play the game, not kill them in the game
5.4
Not gonna give a great impression if they keep dying cuz they don't know what to do
Tell him to ng+ arr
If they've got MMO experience and can read abilities
yeah wow player
They'll probably figure out gameplay with a few dungeons
This is a final fantasy game first mmo second so I still say he's missing out big time
what's the endgame level 60 dol set of gear that I should get and how can I obtain it? currently have level 50 (botanist/miner/fisher's gear + forager's hat and the master goldsmith and leatherworker level 50 accessories)
i mean story skip he gets to skip stormblood so kinda worth
jk but thanks for help
Iirc scrip gear should be good
yeah thats where the part I'm stuck at-
cause Idk what to do inorder to get the scrip gear
like I'm kinda dumb so I need a step by step guide lol
I just tried cancelling the skysteel quest, same issue. I started the quest as culinarian. I twice upgraded the weaver tool already. Cancelled quest, tells me to upgrade the culinarian tool
You have to start the quest as whatever you want to restart it as
You can't accept the weaver quests as a cul
You're more than likely not no
Apparently the lobby servers in Europe are down
oh okay
Servers are having problems rn
I thought it is on my end
Anyone else know what to do?
thinking about all the prae-runners right now, that are at the end of the final boss and could not finish it.. (happened in my fc just now xD) poor souls
wait and get a tea/coffee/chocolate
I'll ask someone else later then. Thanks for trying
What even is a zerg FC?
Fc is a free company, basically a guild
They probably called themselves zerg
Or set the fc tag to be zerg idk

Seems to be some sort of starcraft reference after looking into it
I'm just going to assume zerg is probably some race of hive-minded aliens or something used as a derogatory term for FCs that mass-invite
Hello! About the Confirm key (default numpad 0), is it normal for it to default to the no choice? And can I change it to yes instead of having to change it all the time? Thanks!
idk if this is the right place to ask but, is it worth it to downgrade down to ilvl 520
for more desirable stats on ninja?
from what I heard, I should be avoiding skill speed and building on crit stat
alright, thank you 🙂
tanks do use augmented exarchic rings currently
so sometimes it's okay
not in this case though
Downgrading doesn't usually occur on dps jobs as they don't always have a "dead stat"
Like tenacity on tanks or piety on healer
A dps example would be spell speed on rdm
But since nin uses all the stats it doesn't have "dead" gear for the most part
no ironworks weapon for dancer?\
So when you get to level 50 of a job you're given a bettee version of the jobs armours right. Is there a reason to keep/use the inferior ones ?
nope
Glamour
Just dump the 45 gear in your armoire
It need to be at full durability for that btw
Ahh alright ill donjust that then
hello guys, so i just did all the hunt quests, can i now join hunt trains without any problem or is thre more things i need to do??
The 45 gear with the level 50 chest is the ONLY artifact gear you can pout in the armoire
You should be able to
What is an artifact gear
Job exclusive gear
job specific armour sets
Ahh alright
like the one you got at 45
Stuff that can only be equipped by a blm that can't be equipped by a thaumaturge or summoner
For example
I see i see. Thanks alot !
Most of the time you'll get a set of artifact gear once you hit a level cap (50/60/70/80)
Wait, tanks use Aug exarch?
Exceptions for jobs introduced in expansions only getting artifact gear starting at the level cap of that expansion
Some yeah, the tank tome ring is hot garbage

so uhh...anyone able to give me a step by step guide to the best level 60 dol gear? really dumb sorry ._.
Morgayne is curious whether a talented individual like yourself is familiar with the latest fad.

@shut panther yep
if you can level to 61, level 61 white vendor gear is better than any lvl 60 gear. else you have to get collectables and scrips ^
Again, free trial so I can't get level 61 ;w;
but like yeah uhh
what scrips do I need to get and where can I find where the best dol gear is sold at?
the best DoL gear at level 60 is crafted. i think its called ironworks
ive been getting this quite often ltely. anyone have the same issue?
you can get scrip gear from idyllshire for cheap.
i saw something like this before. turns out the other guy's graphic cards are dying. the peeps at #technology-discussion are probably more informed.
@whole wasp I saw on ffxivcrafting that the best level 60 gear is augmented fieldkeep (il 200), is that obtainable and how do I get it?
ohright. augmented fieldkeep is the scrip gear
Is there a way to save the position of specific ui elements and copy them onto another?
ummm yeah thats where I'm stuck
you do the collectables quest. gather collectables and turn them in for scrips. use scrips to buy gear.
lvl 60 vendor is in idyllshire.
the collectables quest start in ishgard if you havent done it.
next to the levequest dude
ty
Sometimes i see ninja using the Teleport skill almost instantly. How do you do that ?
Rowena vendor in ishgard will sell scrip gear if you've completed hw msq
Likely a target macro
they are looking for DoH/DoL gear. i dont think the vendor for those opens until you done the collectable quest at least.
Oh is it called a macro thanks !
I was looking for what to google
They said they unlocked collectables
ah i missed that.
you can also prepare your cursor beforehand at the location you wanna shukuchi to, then quickly press shukuchi and click
Tbh, the 60 scrip gear for crafters is super annoying -- there's no omni set
Im playing on controller so does the cursor therr stay or will i need to set if everytime i logged in ?
controller aim ground skills by center of screen iirc? not sure myself
Hello. Can someone tell me where I can post looking for other new players on goblin?
Thank you
Random question: I've heard that usually during august there's a big sale on the mogstation. Are Fanatasias usually discounted during the sale? I wanted to buy a pack of 3 but it's not really urgent.
sales are usually pretty random time-wise, but yeah fantasia is often included as its constantly one of the most popular items
yes
each class has their own hunting log
there is also one for every GC but you can be any class for those
Completing the GC hunting log is required to advance in rank too iirc
Which results in more items sold to you, an extended seal cap for that GC among other things
If I change my retainer's class ,will it be reset to lv 1?
Yes
thx
I want to try out the free version and likely buy the game after that. I am playing on PC and usually use Steam for most of my games. Should I make an account on Steam as well, since I heard there are some problems with that version.

Which class has the easiest time recovering their rotation after downtime in a fight - monk, samurai, or dragoon?
sam prolly
The only problem with steam is that it goes on sale more rarely. Steam and non-steam accounts can't be combined or mixed
I think trial account is an exception?
where you can upgrade to steam full ver if u have a windows trial ver and upgrade to windows full verr with a steam trial ver
What are the payment methods with the windows version?
Why does my Red mage keep on jumping off the platform?
all the same except u cant use steam wallet
!action displacement
you need to position yourself so that displacement won't throw you off the edge. it comes with practice
sometimes there won't be enough space to do the full backstep, so in those cases you will need to hold the skill until it's safe to use it again
!action engagement
in those cases, engagement can be used instead of displacement
it's the same skill, but minus the backstep movement
Is there anything I need to do as tank besides turn on tank mode and hit stuff? About to tank in a dungeon for the first time and I’m feeling kinda nervous, however irrational lmao.
use your mitigation skills
Cycle through your defensives, don't press them all at once
Do the novice training it should teach you
Yeah did the novice just now
rampart is your best friend
i need some help as im dumb
I think I only have rampart I’m not very high level lol
please use your mitigation skills against trash mobs.
yes they are trash but AutoAttacks hit the hardest in this game
I see thx
with savage raid in mind, whats the easiest melee class to play? it is DRG?
im a returning player and i want to get back into the game but when i loaded the client i got this
what should i do about this, i had brought the game before and even brought the dlc as well
Your sub has expired
You need to buy game time
then it works
On mogstation
Are you steam or no steam player and using the correct launcher
I heard SAM is pretty easy and has high dps
i use steam i do
it's very subjective
people usually say that DRG is the easiest melee
so if i buy the sub will it just be all fine then and go through to the download?
if too many buttons, it will be difficult to map out the keys
SAM is easy to freestyle but its rotation can be a mystifying for new players
I wish I can convert my steam version to standalone
ditto
hmm alright will decide between DRG and SAM
Lancer starts at lvl1 😛
go play around with lvl 50 SAM first before deciding if its alright for you
I like testing them out in POTD
Doing your rotation shouldn’t be a problem if you’re doing savage raids right? You’ll hit the enrage if your dps is too low
Since you get your abilities
PoTD is annoying because the mobs die too fast.
i just wanna make sure but this will make it all fine correct?
True
yes, you’re only missing game time/subscription
You just need to pay the sub to play again
i once lvled my BLM using PoTD and i never casted a single fire spell. they all died before my cast can complete
Yes. it should come with practice.
Oki thank you, just do not want to spend and it turns out the problem is likely something else
Can you unlink your PSN from your FF14 account if you want to make a new account? Or is there something extra you have to do?
thank you all for the help
Until your sub runs out again
yee well im going to be starting fresh so i def will need to top up again
how do i see all of someones job roles without being in a party?
Is there a end date for Endwalker preorder? One of my friends wants the early access preorder bonus but is a bit strapped on cash atm
pretty sure you can preorder up to the day before release
Anyways it won't be until waaaaay closer to launch
- early access
Apart from launching to the ff14 client through steam is there anything else technically different? Or once you get to that point its the standalone client
You can only buy expansions on steam
Meaning steam sales and squenix sales are mutually exclusive
Depending on your account type
You can only launch from steam
But in terms of the actual client its the same?
Yeah
Functionally there is absolutely no difference between the two
Just whether or not an account can be used
So I have a PS5 version linked to my PC account which is Steam. I’d like to unlink the PS5 version and link it to a new account created via standalone
Not sure if its possible or worth any of the hassle
Yeah, that you can't do
i spent my 9£ gamer coins
It's all the one account
You're effectively buying a license to play it on PlayStation or pc
So my PSN ID is forever linked to that account
Pretty much
Did the game originally launch with steam?
I think so
Pc gaming is very minimal on jp but the steam market share is waaaaaaaayyyy too big to ignore
The integration is weird and a lot of pc players play on the quicklanuncher
well time to wait for a long download
any suggestions to find other players to play with?
!faq communityfinder
Novice Network is pretty helpful too
thank you
I haven’t played in awhile either. If I decide to delete my toon and start over can I rejoin NN?
Iirc returning players can be invited but I could be wrong
you’re correct
Random question after getting in game can I close steam?
Like fully exit out of it
Damn. Lol
It will try to close ff14
is there a way to find out what all can be solo'd at max level/ilevel with what class?
Do we know if our ping is further effected usin the steam client vs standalone
Like does your connection have to get routed through steam first
Pretty much everything can be soloed up to hw trials
Or will it just directly connect to the data center
The warring triad is about the limit for anything that's not a paladin
but not Stormblood yet?
What’s the limit for paladin? I didn’t know they were especially self-sufficient
try it out ..
Paladin has clemency and the strongest invuln in the game
!skill clemency
Time to main paladin, then
Might as well, it's the poster job for endwalker
Is there a way to do that the screen won't turn around when my characters turns around?
Legacy controls
It's locking the camera?
Idk about anything beyond that it's just what I use
Where's that?
Character config
Ok ty
You'll find all the camera settings there so find what works for you
And could it lock onto an enemy?
legacy controls makes the game play more like a traditional action rpg where your character moves independently from the camera
You probably don't want that, there are mechanics that require you to face your character away from the boss
It does mean your char can move backwards though
can’t figure out how to do that normally
I’m sure it makes the bardam boss a bit easier if you’re not an idiot like I am
Do they usually reveal anything during a 14h stream?
Ok and last question I think, my friend is also asking if it's possible to do that you don't need to right click to turn your camera around
Yoshi p will probably be wearing a shirt we won't fully understand til 2022
I play controller ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
it’s easier to explain if you just play around with it in game
I was hoping for a skill trailer :(
is it possible to only buy shadowbringers? currently owns ARR, Heavensward, Stormblood and Endwalker.
Endwalker includes shadowbringers
i just bought endwalker
But you won't get it til release in November
What do you mean?
in my mogstation, it doesnt say its owned tho
Cuz you don't even own Endwalker yet
turn on legacy controls and just run around, move the camera while holding left/right click, etc
You only own preorder bonuses
run circles with wasd
You can't own what hasn't been released yet
oh, so ill have to wait till endwalker releases to get shadowbringers?
yes
Yup
ah okay thanks
Once Endwalker releases you won't be able to buy ShB any more
And purchases of Endwalker will include stormblood and shadowbringers
oh its jsut kinda weird rn
cus
the shadowbringer isnt checked
so i thought i didnt get it
That means you bough stormblood back in the day
if you want to play shb before ew releases, you need to buy shb separately
otherwise you can’t progress past the end of stormblood until november this year
Okay I think someone either cheated or was incomprehensibly lucky with his draft
damn ill have to wait 5 months
it depends if you’re willing to wait
Wc?
you can bind turn left and turn right to your keyboard so you can turn your camera without the mouse. its basically like controller turning
but you can easily catch up to shb in 5 months
It was a lead in to a question, are you actually able to influence what cards you get in a draft?
yea ill proably end up buying shadowbringers
Umm he said that he dislikes the camera moving a bit in legacy mode and wants it to be like when you hold right click but without being required to hold right click, is it possible?
What’s the best way from 70-80 nowadays haven’t played since SHB release
bozja
bozjan southern front
Really?
do i have to get the complete edition to get shadowbringers?
No
You can still just buy shadowbringers
Works for me since I need memories lol
There's even a big BUY button in the screenshot you sent
yea but it redirects to the store where i cant find shadowbringers itself
im not sure. i dont think so.
someone know a good command list which class is good to do the missions and dungeons?
all
Ah rip, ty tho
Light - EU
okay thanks
i hope you know what i mean 😄 i mean the lvl 50 command system to go with them dungeons or send them to mission :3
i dont think it matters, you just need to fill up at least 2 of the 3 stat requirement to get a moderate amount of success chance
OH @tawdry otter i misunderstood, sorry haha
for flagged mission specifically HAVE to hit all 3
Is there like a gear tracker for best in slot by level and possibly where to get it?
god no
you also gave them the collectors edition. 
ah shit
Until you hit level 80, just use whatever has the highest item level
almost lvl 58 and i still not in Heavensward sadge
@nocturne trout https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_EU/product/527945/final-fantasy-xiv-shadowbringers-pc-download
Bet lol
just go with recommended gear til you hit level cap
you have a button for it
The recommended tab keeps putting on lower ilvl jewelry lol
update your gear at 50/60/70 with tomestone gear. wear whatever that dropped for you in between from dungeons.
Ilvl is still better right?
ohyea. its kinda wonky at low levels.
it should be better but make sure you are wearing gear for your role
accessories are not locked to their respective role at ARR
Depends, that higher ilevel jewellery could be caster gear and useless for a melee job
Yeah I've been keeping up on job quests so gear has been good on that end.
so dont wear caster ring for melee class for example.
I'm almost 50
then it should be fine. it mostly goes away after level 60
Yeaaaah one of my higher ilvl pieces has CP. And idk what that is
Crafter mp
Thats Crafter Gear
So yeah fucking useless to you atm
Ohh. Lmfao useless on PLD
you can glamour them for the looks but dont wear them into battle
Maybe thats been part of my problem 🤣
yea i got it thanks
Hell yeah
so nobody know a good help for me? :x
The help was, it doesn't matter

squadron system that is what i mean
The ranged/casters generally perform better than the melee dps, IMO
If you have a tank, healer, and 2 dps you can “technically complete” any command mission
As for MRD/GLA, I don’t notice much of a difference between them
Is the recommended tab actually good at giving you the correct gear?
yes except accessories and certain stuff youre intent on using instead
is there a way to show ping in game?
PLD focuses strength, vitality, and tenacity right?
No
Vitality comes naturally as does str, then crit, direct hit, and determination
Tenacity is useless
If you ensure gear has str on it somewhere, then that's fine, but after ARR gear will be properly allocated to the right jobs anyway
why is this game fun?
anyways, what stats are important for machinist? i just started playing around with it
So I may have messed up when picking regions how do I get back to that selection screen
Dexterity
is 100 ping low enough to play ninja well?
yeah should be fine
Ahh ok awesome. Thanks
Do it through the support/help desk menu
is there upgraded version of Weathered Shadowbringer? If yes, can someone give me a link? I'm going crazy
Is there a list, or general consensus of skills that are good/bad for DoH? / Does someone have a bar setup?
If you mean dyeable version, then no.
Contact us —> Report harassment?
Yes
Pretty much only Hasty Touch is what I’d call a skill you’d never use past the early levels.
Shadowbringers AF model isn't used for a relic yet
