You get in from the Gold Saucer. I think it costs around 250K MGP
200k
what u get in gold saucer?
cosmetics
Like?
It’s essentially like, just a place full of mini games and stuff
The regalia is gona be from gold saucer?
yes
horns, weapons, clothes, hairstyles, achievements, mounts, etc
yes that's what we just said
Which isn't much
What's the best way to farm/get MGP?
!faq mgpguide
chocobo racing
Make it rain is coming in July, so mgp farm can wait til then
Its generally reccomended you try and get MSQ done as fast as possible and do your job quests as soon as you can
Side quests give very little rewards all things concidered
im bit sad cause im new but i feel like i wasted lots of money on the game cause i choosed wrong data center
💔
and now i have to wait 90 days for server transfer
Well yeah, I meant focusing on that as the primary content
oh yeah
Rushing MSQ is what I was doing. It was just horrible content...
@quick pawn if you're not that far in the game you can just start a new char
i just let it chose data center for me?
Yeah but i bough 10 emotes and like 6 costume appeareances from the mog store...
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
welp
Is there a splendor in uldah?
i know i know i shouldnt have a credit card
oh thats painful
splendors are near the main aetheryte iirc
there's one in each starting city post 2.0
which mobs do I have to farm to spawn supersoldier rising? 
how hard is it to make relic weapons compared to gw2?
Not hard
Just tone consuming
Cause they're time sinks by design
Pretty much just "Go do X content Y times"
As long as is it's not legendary crafting-level of time sink
is the regalia account bound?
No
in gw2 it was an easy 2 months of constant grinding
so i have to get the mgps on both chars i want it
Yes
Compared to a leggy? relic is faster
If you hardcore burn out grind you can finish any in a week
You'll hate yourself but
You don't have to do map completion or do pointless tasks to get special items, just get mats really
"do X content Y times"
is there any way to know, in game, what materia an item is capped on before you purchase it? was something that always confused me, since sometimes items that have +DHR doesn't always mean I can't slot in more of it, and so on.
Probably gamerescape
The higher substat is usually the one that's capped for substats, or close to it
why do some critters have little blue/green flower like icons next to their names?
I suppose that's a good thing to keep in mind, thank you. But just to clarify, generally it's better to have an item that has the stat you want naturally over an item that doesn't that you materia that stat onto? since I can't really see materia adding anymore than +120 unless being able to meld more than twice
Passive/hostile nkbs
Guys. Wad if i queue as a healer. But when party pops. I join as a dps?
you can't, you have to be the role you queued as to go in
You physically can't. It will ask you to swap job
If not u get kicked?
oh, so not like 'i have a hunt' for them ...
You'll be removed from the que
no, you can't change job while in an instance
And penalised for missing the que
when queue pops, it'll ask you to switch to whatever role you queued as. If you don't, you get a penalty. If you switch and go into the dungeon, you won't be able to switch from that job until you're out of it
Ok thanks
Yes...if gear can't have more of a stat then you move down your priority list when melding
Haha. Good to know
Main story is everything
Should I level 1 class to 80 and do all the others with the bonus exp or do multiple at once so I have more flexibility? I like being able to choose dps or heals for dungeons (my FC likes to switch it up) but the constant switching makes me feel like I’m not leveling efficiently.
Your friends can always do dungeons and content they've previously done, as long as it's a lower level than the job they wish to go as. You cannot do content you haven't yet done or unlocked, nor any content that is above your level.
As long as a job is under your highest level they'll have bonus xp
One class to 80 then go back and do others tbh
Oh that changes things then. I thought it was just when you got to 80.
No
nope! as long as one job is higher level, all other jobs get more XP
!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.
Oh, and don't forget about the ring you get from doing the training missions. Up to level 30, it's a great ring to have.
Good to hear. I’ll keep leveling DRG and WHM at the same time then.
Hall of the Novice, sorry, couldn't remember it off by heart
Yup I have that ring
Is there anyway to avoid my 90 day restriction for server change? :c
No
Oh and does the endwalker earring stack with road to 70? Not sure if I should bother pre-ordering.
Yes
I'm actually not 100% sure, I don't have it myself sadly
Ooh, that's great to hear then
Everything stacks with it
maybe if you sent in a support ticket they'll understand?
Ooh time for up to 300% exp then…
Was also a little sad to find out Road to 70 had a timer on it, despite not showing one.
So if you have that, make the most of it!
😮 so whit my new classes i could open my angel atire + ring and lvl
Minimum
Yeah, 90 days I'm pretty sure
Longer if the server stays preferred
Yeah 90 days since creation if the server stops being preferred
wait
I logged on one day and it was gone, was saddened
i have to wait more days if the server stays preffred?
Next patch is in July/August so you'll have it for awhile
You'll just lose it when you transfer
so a good option would be use the 90 days to lvl in my prefred servers while i wait
prefred gets exp boost others dont?
Level your alts
if i do my server trans i wouldnt have road to 70 buff
you only get the buff for creating a character on that preferred server
transferring a character to a preferred one will not give you the buff
not sure about transferring a character that already has one though
You lose it
Ok
so i will just lvl my alt jobs
before keep begging for the 90 days restriction to take off
Lol
i whana move from Primal to Crystal 💔
i was sad that there's only a buff on the server that my other characters were on .. but that it's full to new characters ... and i can't play them,.. it's been TOO long
if you have the buff right now, make the most of it while you have to wait the 90 days anyway?
Any recomendations for a noob to make gil?
im new xD
atm all i been doing is
farming the current event to get my angel wings accesory
crafting, generally
and get my invisible hsield wich i got already
but you get a lot of gil thru the msq anyways
ai had 1m gil from msq
Hi guys, how can I find a mentor?
people with the crown icons next to their names
to get my 100 points
isn't the angel wings MGP? Or am I mistaken?
it is
generally you should see a lot of mentors hanging out in main cities, like limsa
What a mentor does?
Generally, a mentor is there to help others
mentors are often rather… incompetent
because they see it as an accomplishment and don’t care to help players
u could look at it as a few hours investment to get access to a crown and what has become a "general chat"
novice network isn't as moderated as this chat
and our mentors actually know a lot 
I can't find the 525 armor vendor
they’re in the main zadnor camp
In Zadnor after doing Dalriada
I'll check around again
To the right as you spawn in
npc is called the resistance supplier, iirc
By some boxes, next to the mendee
What time is reset or whatever?
!daily
Just happened 14mins ago
Ah okay I'll remember when
Guys so im currently playing with the ff 14 launcher like normally but want to switch to the steam launcher. Do i only need to buy the expansions on steam then to play with my account or do i need to create a completly new account and do all the story stuff again?
Are you on trial
Then you need a completely new account and rebuy everything
You can't cross steam and Non steam
Because steam and licensing
So if I had more than one character, am I able to send items between characters?
Alrighty sick. Thanks for the info ^^
is getting a tonberry character even possible
18 usd character transfer is sucha scam
Wait until late at night when people are off line
if you want it you pay for it
As we said last timr
otherwise just make a- yeah

A little help, please. I wanted to make a logs macro and macro works but trying to set the icon. Anyone know the command for "Hunting Log"?
I have /micon "Hunting Log"
Tried MANY categories and such but can't figure it out.
I think hunting log is a general action
tried it
resistance weapon- fastest way to grind for raw emotions?
Nope it doens't
Lv70 dungeons, but you can co-grind timeworn artifacts with it in DR
dalriada is slow?
Kind of unreliable when it'll pop tbh
i'm only going to get 1 relic weapon so i'll skip dr
It's good if you're spending time in Zadnor
Skalla or Hell's Lid are like 5-10m each with blus
It's 3 per run and Average 30min spawn
hmm, i'll just afk while waiting for it to pop i guess? How long til it pop btw?
Can farm mettle in the Downtime for dmg buffs
you should definitely not skip Dalriada
and you shouldn’t afk either
it’ll kick you out
Dalriada has 1 hour Base Cooldown, shorter if CEs are done
Think they meant "I'm not gonna grind raw emotions in DR"
alright that's fine. i can do real life stuff while waiting
i move
Make sure to walk or jump around every once in a while. 10m inactivity will kick you
is it just me or is leveling doh jobs without a market board a complete pain in the ass ?
without gatherers? yes
Hello. Do the items that are sold at the Itinerant Moogle repeat every event or it always changes and if I don't get something I won't be able to get it next time the event is on?
it's always time or gil with crafting
it always changes
but you can usually buy the stuff after the event is over, when the next one begins
only the 100 tome ring won't come back
Alright, thanks. I guess time to no-sleep and grind Prae.
PVP tends to be a lot faster than prae
How much does it give?
6 per loss 10 per win
it’s rival wings, specifically
for frontlines
ah
yo which alliance raids are fastest to farm for the HW and SB raid step in the relic
or should just farm the fates
fates are faster
but if you want the right raids,
for SB do rabanastre, for HW void ark
bleh the drop rates are so bad >.< i figured they were faster though
both are sub 20 mins
ty
other bonus is if you do rabanastre you get the moogle tomestones
what's the fastest way to farm irregular tomes this time around?
frontlines or Rival wings
isnt hades ex farm pretty good too
so i am creating a new account because i registered an NA account
may I know where i am to input that my account is EU during registration
just make sure when you pay youre on an eu and not an na subdomain
ok
What does it mean when a mob has a W or X at the end of their name?
how do i unlock harder versions of a dungeons?
Old school targetting designation
Do thr unlock quest
are there ways of unlocking savage or EX dungeons?
do the unlock quest
theres a lot of them so focus on unlocking the ones you want first
basically there's a normal version, and then a harder version of said thing
There are hard mode versions of some dungeons but that appears to have been discontinued
someone have hunt linkshell in ragnarok?
server is down?
I recommend Faloop, it's a discord that organizes hunt trains
im on it but they spam very late
Oof
Can someone expalin New Game+ to me? So my friend has just started getting through ARR patch content, and I myself am already doing Stormblood. Can i join him doing the ARR patch content by using New Game+? And how does it work exactly? Can i just leave the NG+ halfway for example, and get back to my Stormblood quests?
Yes and yes
It's just a means to replay the story. You can start from multiple different places including during the ARR patch quests. You can stop it at any time and save your NG+ quest progress, or wipe it or whatever you like.
what are beast tribe quests ?
Daily quests for quick xp

how do I check which rank I need to unlock one of these item? https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Vath_Stickpeddler#Purchase Items
which ilvl?
535
follow the balance recommendation
if you’re not going for a particular skill speed tier for bis then just following any of them should be fine
and yeah follow meld priority as a general rule
yeah that seems better idea
how long till allied https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Vath_Daily_Quests
what does a plant icon mean near a characters name?
whats a relic?
hasn't reached shadowbringer
fair. thanks Vielen
A weapon that after a long process becomes the best in slot for an expansion
like a legendarie from wow?
what's legendarie from wow?
oh
more just 'do quests once a patch to upgrade it'
grinding content for mats and such
sometimes you get to specify its substat weights
If you spawn a CE do you pick what zone it is?
ok after getting my wings
ima start lvling
funny new expansion comes out in my bday
xD
relic wpns are generally not-quite-bis but usually second-closest for most of the expansion
but bis by the end
usually beaten out by the final boss of savage's wpn drop
savage is like mythic from wow?
raid doesn't work like wow here
can't really be compared
but if you mean if it's the hardest difficulty, it isn't
oh
Difficulty-wise, Savage is somewhere between Heroic and Mythic difficulty in WoW.
there isn’t a lot of incentives to make alt characters so most people are happy with emotes being for 1 character only
im just sad cause i choosed wrong server and i spended like 300 usd or 400
and i cant server transfer for 3 months
cant get over it
why is the server wrong?
cause i wanted to be in a place whit lots of ppl and rp
and seems primal not good data center for that
and less famrir
💔
everyone been telling me more ppl on crystal for that
I’d just wait for DC travel to come out at this point

well, you can always finish the msq and the optional story/raid content and transfer to crystal after you hit endgame and have had time to collect glam (transmog) and get immersed in the world’s story
plenty of people rp on primal too
Just wait out the 3 months. It won't kill you.
there are fewer clubs and rp events yes, but they do exist
well i got a lot of glam from mog store
Since there aren't any more promotions available, how do I get First Sergeant and Captain?
my char atm :3
the real good stuff are glamours you have to earn in dungeons and raid drops tbh
Squadrons
just wait out the 3 months since you already spent so much on the store
Oh I just gotta grind that out
Talking of grinding
does the exp buff from angel atire stacks whit road to 70? and whit the exp buff from making a new job? and my ring from exp?
so i shouldnt wear the angel atire for lvling then?
absolutely not
No
the exp buff on it is just flavour text, basically
use it as glam but it’s not good as actual gear at all
xD
and guess what, you could have more
well it's not like you can bypass the ilvl requirements, lol
so the exp buff is irrelevant
but you can use it for very low level stuff like 1-15 or maybe content that doesn't need ilvl requirements like potd
Doesn't work there
oh right is it only give bonus to normal monster kill only
then just 1-15 hunting log thing when gear barely gives anything, lol
what should i do to lvl alt jobs?
What exactly is happening?
!faq altlvlguide
when players move they stop 1 second and it teleport
Sounds like ping/lag issues honestly.
sounds like an issue with your connection if it's everyone
no not ping issue
guess that guide is for a person playing decent time
can i speed it if i play 17 hrs a day?
xD
i got this problem after i was playing in settings
Are your graphics settings appropriate for your PC or console?
pc
Also iirc you can reset most settings to default
other than that option ?
You can speed run anything if you're playing 17 hours a day.
Hi, new EU player about to do the trial, is there any recommended server for beginners? Are Light/Dark just server clusters? I just picked dark on here to see
Light is German, Chaos is French

No
Shiva is German, moogle is French
Unofficially
yeah, but they shares duty 😂
I'm not german
That doesn't change anything
So servers don't mean much at all?
No
Data centre does
Cause you can visit other servers
And instances are cross server
Oh nice
I'm returning to leveling my crafting classes, but its been so long since I've done it I don't remember or know where to start. My weaver is at 75, looking to reach 80. What should I be doing for exp? Any tips or suggestions? Really lost on what to do because it's been so long its kind of overwhelming.
I would recommend ishgard restoration..
Like the collectibles?
farm the kupo voucher while you aren't 80 yet, more chance to get casual clothes that you can sell on marketboard
yeah
Facet of crafting can give you enough XP to cover that 5 levels, plus dwarf beast tribe
Facet of crafting?
basically the shb "role quests" of crafting/gathering
the crystarium collectables
How do I use LB as a dps?
Find the LB action and put it on your hotbar
type /actionlist and drag limit break to your hotbar

is there something in video settings that delay players movement ?
Shouldn’t be
what does movement physics do
what's your ping?
I think just how your hair and cloth move when you move
;-;
I don’t think character movement is tied to ping. As in, you can still move around for a while after you Disconnect
I had input lag due to having installed too many third party stuff
But in vanilla client input lag shouldn’t be noticeable
Movement is client side and ping can make other people movement look funky
when my ping fluctuates, it's indeed delayed
Weird question but does the grand company rep for the free company do anything?
This thing
No idea, don’t think so
Any scholars here?
there should be a blue quest there around the pillars
I just finished the lvl 50 jobquest (did summoner first) and ready to jump into the first dungeon
What is the difference between Eos and Selene at that lvl?
i went there and he wasnt there for some reason
That's it?
yeah
up to you, i prefer Eos cause fit my glamour..
nope
nvm i found him
I'm in a pf for e9s and no one has mith markers... any idea what I should do
what are the odds on getting a mount from The Howling Eye Extreme?
Cool, ty. Too bad tho
100% if you do it enough times!
Or 50/50, i.e. it either drops or it doesn’t
But yeah, no I don’t this there is an accurate drop rate
hahaha I don't mind that, but maybe just a little indication?
No idea
Would it be closer to 10 or 1 percent for example
50 runs?
I think a few days?
Hours
Cause they take like no time at all to do
I’m spreading bad info lol
If it happens it happens, lv 50 EXs are a joke unsynced
You clear each in like a mjnute
How long is a piece of string?
Is there proper endgame in this game
What am I grinding for
Gear get the best in slot gear
Maybe tackle an ultimate if you're ready to sink 100s of hours on 1 fight alone
Is ultimates doable in 2-3 weeks if you do 40 hour a week?
Oh my
Ucob was 11...uwu was 5...tea was 7? Or something
Oof
I think fflogs stop recording your score after new savage releases?
What are the chances people will join my guild if it's new
I did notice Extremes are open until 6.0
Maybe...? Try advertising it, it might work
Speaking of guids... what are they for? Like besides playing together and chilin' in discord.
Mostly just chilling together and playing in discord
In 14, FC and Static is usually seperated
Some people run in FC Statics too
lol
Is it worthgetting all Shared FATE level to 3?
hey i currently have the base FFXIV game on steam. if i prepurchase endwalker will i be able to lvl to 80?
I’m pretty sure you only get the other expansions when endwalker releases. So you will, but you’ll have to wait a while.
Only in November will you get the other dlcs
hey so
im a level 26 arcanist
but i wanna try out bard
how would i go about levelling it
!faq altlvlguide
also does anyone use shaders?
ty
i heard about reshade and gshade
and im interested because the default shaders don't look great to me
I don’t know much about shaders but gshade has a discord link on the download site, you may get more answers there
ah ill check them out
do you use it?
Nope but I’ve been eyeing it, which is why I got on their server
Pretty sure they have a questions channel for you to ask there
ah awesome
appreciate it
im guessing for the levelling guide even when im on the free trial it still works
just without the boosts
Yes
how do I unlock tomahawk?
wait so its different?
Yes
weird that i got storm's path first
They're MANDATORY
Never not do job quests
They lock skills behind it
Hello, what level range does correspong to master recipe 3/4/5/6/7/8 ?
60, 70 and 80 in sets of 2
!iglam sphairai
these should be it
Apart from the market board, where can I buy gear after lvl 50?
I see, thanks
mhm how does new recipes for new raid tier get added tho? are they simply added in recipe book if u have unlocked the masters recipe 8?
Yes
i see
When is square's e3?

Is it possible to hide headpiece?
oh nice thx
The button next to it is for the visor if your headpiece has one. If that helps you get the look you want
You still get tomes with undersized sync on, right?
So macro's, even while playing with controller, are going to give me a distinct disadvantage and only hinder me? Even if I only used it for CD's?
I need help
Yes, always disadvantage. You don't need macros
why not? It's synced
You do
nay
Vinyl probably thought you meant undersized
Boss relative is you do mechanics with wherever the boss is Facing now acting as North
How do i know if flame thrower is hitting enemies as a mch
If you're undersized AND synced you get tomes
synced is the factor
If you're just undersized you get hubcus
not the undersized
True north is using North and ignoring wherever the boss is turbed
read the damage numbers
it does feel rather unresponsive and low-impact so i get what you mean though
Flamethrower doesn't have damage numbers
It acts like a dot
Since it ticks every second
@outer mural it has no numbers, doesn't even show a symbol lmao
I don't understand what that means @faint flare

i have never notcied
well i guess you just figure it out if the fire particles are their hitbox ig
What boss does mechanic based off the relative?
True North = Arena north
OK say for the mechanic you spread around the boss in set clock positions. Your Position is North East. If the boss is turned East for the mechanic and you're doing Boss Relative, you treat East as the new north
And spread around the boss accordingly
otherwise if you're doing true north, you go to north-east relative to the compass on the map where north is
If it was true north, it means you would go to the north east of the arena regardless where the boss is Facing
Boss relative allows melees to retain positionals since they're ALWAYS in the south flanks of the boss regardless where it turns
True north means they'll lose positionals since the boss may not be facing north when mechanics happen
@faint flare so it's better in theory to do boss relative?
in theory, but in reality people (especially in party finder) can make mistakes when adjusting to boss relative
"ah yes let's have the melees run far away from the boss abd let ranged have melee spots" SMART
true north is safer, but you lose melee uptime
The thing I don't understand is why would the melee run away
for the mechanic
safely doing the mechanic with certain strategies
Because their assigned spot for the mechanic, and true north says their spot for the mechanic isn't where the boss is going cause they're going elsewhere
My biggest confusion is clock spots and how they work I guess
You're literally just spreading around the boss
Again take the example
Your spot is South
With boss relative You're ALWAYS behind the boss on its rear
Yes I understand that
However, with True north, you're not always South of the boss
boss in the middle
If boss turns east
Cause it.may be turned
In boss relative yes
yes that would be boss relative
That makes sense
You would be south of the boss
What should I do in a situation like this (especially on lower level, here I'm synced to 34)?
- switch to Umbral and re-apply DoT, then switch back to Fire and continue as normal
- stay in Astral and re-apply DoT, then continue as normal
- keep spamming F1 and dont re-apply DoT (until MP runs out and I naturally switch to Umbral)

refresh thunder when it runs out
Nice and straightforward, awesome 😄
So, if I have fully aug'd Cryptlurker Gear should I even bother with ES gear?
You have enough time and wiggle mana to refresh at least once in Fire
If you want to min max stats
yes, eden savage is part of 'best set-up' for stats if you care about that
otherwise if you don't acre about savage / optimal stats, eh
So is boss relative for certain mechiancs?
It's for all mechanics you do that require a specific position
Mainly clock positions
Something to do if I'm ever bored then
Oh.yeah she turns like a bitch
for example, e9s has lasers where all 8 players need to spread
people spread around the 4 cardinal, and 4 intercardinal positions (pictured here) so they don't get obliterated by stacking lasers
also sorry for the tag rin i forgot ot turn it off 
Spreads are usually just clock spots...again if you're boss relative you go off where thr boss is facing
As we said in our examples
clock spots are usually assisted by player placed markers on the arena
it depends on other mechanics too
but yes for spreads that is how people usually deal with it
So do I get my own chocobo at level 10?
Aeros are usually based on your clock spot as well..
RANGE will tend to go to the north side of the arena (where the boss is Facing for boss relative), melees typically South side
kk
Is there some way to check what unlock quests i havent completed? or do i just need to go to different places and open my map
I dont know what theyre called but im talking about these things
Yes those are in the complete tab
correct
you will find the names of the quests you have done in the complete log
if you don't find it, you probably haven't done it
search is universal so you don't need a specific tab, i just said so in case you wanted to see it manually without looking it up
@manic rune how did u do ur clockspot for os12
with what
o12s? i haven’t cleared that fight actually
depends on the guide you follow
idk which one is most popular in pf rn
but
spread should generally be the same?
Yeah, it's just a matter of orientation
check mtqguide for an overview of how she resolved it
disclaimer: not always optimal strat for every mechanic but her vids greatly assist in getting an idea on how to deal with it

Wrong one
hm? o12s, yeah?
Oh it is O12...there is a female there
ya o11 is beeg robo
The fight guide doesn't explain clock spots
But I get the basic
Everyone basically needs to remember there side and adjust at the boss adjust for that said MECHANIC
I never really experienced it yet so it just sounds confusing
Just kill it before it happens
that's the best i can really give you rn besides just doing the fight and progging
Then again PF doesn't have good dps so
Makes 0 sense to do content I never done unsynced imo
I'll never understand clock spots either if I plan to do Eden 😩
When do i get to unlock mounts? im lv 28 right now and just got into my grand company
In like 3 story quests
It will show under the main scenario tracker
My little chocobo
Yes
The quest name ending is slightly different depending on which company you're in
does the level 80 crafting blue gear come out when 6.0 is aboutto release
Does tempering change the colour of someone's eyes? I remember that happening in the Coils of Bahamut but I'm not certain
hi guys if you level up an arcanist to 30 can you become both summoner and scholar? or does choosing one lock the other off in any way?
ok ty
oh literally just got the chocobo quest, typical i get it as soon as i start questioning it
depends on the primal
Ahh, okay.
baha blast was pretty strong so maybe thats why
True. Thank you for this response friend.
tbf the job was designed for stormblood skills so 70 will be skewed regardless
but i respect the idea regardless
gl 
also levelling up summoner levels up scholr
and vice versa
only job that does this
Hey, I can't find it on the store webpage; when does EW Early Access begin?
What blue gear?
It's usually a week or two before full release isn't it?
ah cool!
think they mean the white scrip gear?
If you mean the final set of scrip gear we already got it, it’s the Handsaint and Landsaint sets
Early access is on November 19th, full release on the 23rd
so now that I got hte quest for chocobo; do I just complete things like FATEs for the seals?
What's the lowest level to do events like holidays and crossover events (like FFXV) Level 15 with XXXXXX Envoy completed for access to other cities?
Do the next story quest or two, it gives the needed seals
ahh fab thank ya
heyhey, noob guy here starting from scratch, might be a bigger question than I think but... is there anything to keep in mind or beware of as I am leveling?
For the normal seasonal events, only the Moonfire Faire needs level 30, the rest generally just need level 15
For Crossovers it depends, Yokai needs up to level 70 to get all the weapons
nothing to watch out for, only room to imrpove
only thing i can think: do not fall for the sidequest trap
yellow sidequests
are for worldbuilding and give little exp, not worth ur time as ur levelling
And the FFXV event needs 50
usually its 15, but there's been a few in costa del sol
prioritize main scenaario quests (MSQ) 
aren't really worth it at all,
and
you should do, and please for the love of God do your class quests
Starting from Lv 15 class quest all the way to your final Lv 70 job quest they give you skills
I have a lowbie legacy character I'm going to turn into a manbun, but I want to do the events between now and then to start collecting stuff, so I guess 30 is the target.
What's the difference between the bubble with the cross, and the one without?
bubble with cross unlocks content
ayee
is content unlock
ahhh cool 👀
is lore
bubble with no cross is usually just lore /worldbuilding with no tangible unlock
is there a way to get another mount without paying?
what do you mean another mount?
from your chocobo?
i got only my chocobo
thhere are plenty of unlockable mounts in the game that do not need irl money
There's alot of mounts

tyvm ❤️
Level Conjurer/White Mage or any of the tanks, farm EX trials later on, MSQ will also give you another couple mounts
yep
yes
The link tells you the sources
can I buy those or do I need scripts
scrips only
so me being lvl 50 wont help me get any other mount ye?
i need to be atleast maximum lvl
nah
Mounts are spread all around
Wynne
mounts are spread around different pieces of content
you get one at level 50 from the story too
there's at least 15 cool mounts at lvl 50
Yes
How do I get the tank mounts
The arr extreme ponies
Do high end content as them
ye the nightmare one i see rn
being max level does make the grind easier
there are two versions
one's 61+? high end content which can be easy to farm
the other is harder, i think 70+? for armored versions of the 61+ mounts
but i think u get the magitek thingy i dont like it at all
The unarmoured ones want normal/savage raids, both 8-man and 24-man, and extreme trials of any level
Whm specifically can't get the unicorn, only conjurer can get it
I CAN GET A GOBBUE
when can I buy the blue crafting gear from marketboard
is that usually
cya later 😄 thanks for the help
unarmored version for gnb requires 61+ content
it is scrips only, blue crafting gear isn't on the marketboard
Correction, it unlocks after completing the 30 CNJ quest so you can pick it up as WHM
Both versions for gnb require 61+ content
@oblique glacier there's a mount for each of the beast tribes. But you need higher levels of bond with them and 100k gil.each
One at 200 the other at 300 iirc
what's the difference between blacksmith and armorer?
i was pointing it out because the other tank's unarmouredv ersions do not
ah so there isn't an equivalent to ironworks crafting gear for level 70 I'm assuming?
Is it like an achievement mount?
That requires sylph beast tribe, it sucks
Probably only the gobbue from sylph and bomb palanquin from kobold is unique
one is weapons, one is armor
Theres a few from golden saucer as well
there should be
level 70 gear should be for yellow scrips
80 gear is white scrips
But those require a bit of grind overtime
No...the high end crafted gear equivalent is green
At level 30 or above, speak with the Wandering Minstrel in Eastern La Noscea (1.0)
where is that
Impossible to get anymore
OOF
Also how do I check if my server is open for a friend
!faq worldstatus

@spiral inlet off peak hours
ok, is it recommended to level up something like gatherer or miner if you decide to level up armorer or blacksmith?
Yes
thanks
Its recommended you level your gatherers together with your crafters
So you can be self sufficient in materials
miner will pertain most to blacksmith / armorer because rocks yeah
Otherwise its gonna get expensive
ok, guessing it'll take a lot of time to level these up to 80
After level 15 ish your crafter quests require materials you can't buy normally
You can probably ignore fisher if your priority is crafting
fisher is its own weird thing, its materials are rarely used for anything besides alc/cul, which doesn't seem to be ur priority rn
Fisher is more a for fun thing. I'm personally not sure how many crafting recipes require fisher though
botanist and miner should be ur first priority

Occasional alc, some cul
I see
Honestly I just like fishing, it's relaxing
Fisher is definitely the easiest to get to max level 🤣
so if i want to become an armorer then it is recommended that i level up leatherworker and miner as well or am i missing some other job?
Ocean fishing, coupled with manuals is OP levelling
The others as well
You'll want to level up pretty much All the crafter jobs at once
you should level up all crafters at the same time so they use the same gear and give each-other the same level of materials
You'll occasionally need wood here and there
And cloth
Maybe some stuff goldsmith makes
if you're still early in the game then save it until after you're 80
Cloth from weavee
@celest snow level all 8 together will be the best. They use the same gear as well so your inventory won't be clogged up with crafter gear of varying levels
It's all connected
you mean ever DOW?
DOh
No doh
Doh and dol
No crafters
If you want to become a Crafter it's recommended that you pick up all seven crafters (Culinarian doesn't use the same materials so you don't really need it) and level them simultaneously because you'll need materials from some crafter jobs for other crafter jobs
oh sry, meant doh
Doh share the same gear mostly, same foe DoL
Until you get to maybe lvl 50/60 where they can have exclusive gears
You can ignore fsh if you want but miner and botanist compliment each other
But if you're subbed, don't really need them
On free trial, the lvl 60 blue scrips gears are like the best I could get. Didnt bother with ironworks
it's still recommened to do culinarian regardless so u don't have to do it later
does it go faster to level DOH than classes and jobs?
Hello maybe someone can help me :( i've bought the game via steam (starter edition) few months passed and I've wanted to start playing again but since my free trial expired I've just bought the full game via mog shop (30 days for free included) and now i can't log in it still says its expired 😩
did you put in the code for standard edition
Yeah they ZOOM by if you do the more “expensive” ways like Levequests
@celest snow depends if you have ishgard restoration unlocked. That's the fastest to 60. Not sure for 60-80
Levequests can be really quick for crafters and gatherers too
ishgard resto is also fairly cheap since you can gather the mats urself
In fact recommended
very recommended
Ishgard Restoration is less good now if you don’t gather the materials yourself
you get money out of it too from the scratch tickets
what is ishgard restoration?
If you're gonna level your DoL as well, it works hand in hand
I've put the code once I've downloaded it and now I'm assuming this code doesn't work
@celest snow its a post HW content
it's basically just a special avenue for gathers to get stuff, and crafters to craft stuff in order to get exp / currency to buy some rewards
It’s like a self-sustained crafting/gathering content thing
oh ok, currently in the middle of HW
On this note, is there a site where I can view fete timings
thanks for the help! i'll wait until i get to that point!
Ohh didn't know. The very last time I did. I recall my tonberry friends had the same time as me on kujata

How to spawn the end of atrocities zadnor fate?
it's always every couple of days with two hours between each on the dot
It's specifically post 3.3 so you'll need to wait until the second heavensward credits. Trust me you'll know it when you get to it
second heavensward credits are 3.5
I could have sworn there was another at the end of 3.3 but its been nearly a year
no
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
