That’s good I guess yeah

#

It’s gonna be read by people who speak English fluently so they’re gonna understand

remote lintel
#

you dont really need an ending if you said all you needed to say

leaden ginkgo
#

Okay

#

Thank you!

fading aurora
#

If I buy someone a mount and they haven't hit lvl 20 yet can they use it?

remote lintel
#

no

fresh gate
#

They need to unlock the chocobo first

forest plume
#

Can one character play and be all classes/jobs and crafting / gathering skills? Is that unrealistic or common. Trying to figure out if an alternate character is the way to go or just one that can do it all.

it's normal to have one char and all classes on that char

fresh gate

Yes

#

How much does 1 month of subscription cost?

#

Starter edition on steam is also 8$

Subscription Prices
forest plume
#

Thank you

leaden ginkgo
#

Right, still too expensive (for me).
Thank you!

hearty rover
#

did they take book things that you need to be able to gather certain stuff out of the game?
i remember you have to buy it with white gatherer scrips
its like the recipe things but for gatherer

leaden ginkgo
#

I modified my suggestion a bit grammatically. Can someone please look it over?

Title: Request for a Time-Based Subscription Model.

Description:
I humbly request for an alternate /additional subscription model, at roughly the same cost, based on time spent in-game instead.
Eg, at ~ 2 hours per day, with 4 hours per weekend in a 4 week month = 30 x 2 + 16 = 76 hours a month per subscription.
Subscription to last for at least a year, preferable longer.

Background:
I am a free trial player and housewife, living in a third world country (Pakistan). My day to day schedule is quite variable. with some week(s) free, and others highly hectic, with no free time at all.
And at 12.99$ a month, I Cannot afford to buy a subscription, only for it to be wasted.

jovial quarry
leaden ginkgo
#

Should I lower the time to 60 hours a month?
2 hours a day = 30 x 2 = 60 hours a month.

#

Honestly, while it does sound good, there's probably a reason the payment method is the way it is. I'm gonna poke around and see if there is a concrete reason from a business perspective

#

@leaden ginkgo Thank you!

hearty rover
leaden ginkgo
#

Ive asked around my friends regarding, and almost all of them are put off from FFXIV because of what I mentioned above.

The only ones who DO play are loaded (in cash)

remote lintel
#

if you play on steam there should be regional pricing

#

idk if it applies to the sub

whole wasp
#

just to add on, hour-based pricing does exist

#

but its only for china and korea server

#

they pay at the webcafe where they play iirc

leaden ginkgo
#

From what I can gather, there's a bit of a bugbear about exchange rates, and the model has been done in the past. It just hasn't worked well on an international scale

whole wasp
#

china and korea server is completely seperate from our global servers tho.

remote lintel
#

also a time based sub model would be more expensive for people who play the game regularly

#

which is a lot of people

rugged flicker
leaden ginkgo
#

I'm still looking into it, and Cerb brought up another stickler that keeps getting mentioned

#

That why Im suggestion an additional model. Month based for those who play regularly, and time based for those who dont

#

Or cant

#

Sorry of it wasn't clear

#

I modified what I posted above

shut panther
#

The things you're looking for are called (area) folklore

jovial quarry
rugged flicker
#

Angler claims it can catch other types of fish 😮

jovial quarry
#

It can, yes, but it's main use is for the relic tool materials.

rugged flicker
#

And like has a higher yield statistically.

ripe hound
honest anvil
#

did SB or HW have their versions of coffee biscuit leve?

leaden ginkgo
#

Just got soul of the crafter from scrip exchange but how do I equip it?

shut panther
#

You have to trade them to a person in ishgard

whole wasp
#

guy is near the airship place, just outside the AST buidling

leaden ginkgo
#

@leaden ginkgo From what I can gather, it might just really be an exchange rate thing, and the fees that come with it. Low levels of money might cause a bit of mess. Regardless, it wouldn't hurt to suggest it.

#

@leaden ginkgo Understood. Thank you!

alpine shadow
#

did you check out the steam pricing @leaden ginkgo ?

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes. Starter Edition is 8$. Still a bit much, and I was told on NN that its a one time thing. Prices go back to 12.99$ after that month

gusty island
#

How come on MRD/WAR sometimes my Heavy Swing does not trigger a combo?

shrewd owl
#

is your target too far away

#

could be lag also

gusty island
#

its right in my face :p

shrewd owl
#

oh wait

#

is the enemy higher level

gusty island
#

yeah

remote lintel
#

you missed

shrewd owl
#

that explains it

gusty island
#

that does explain it

#

thought i was doing something wrong 😄 thanks

jovial quarry
#

If an enemy is higher level than you, you can miss an attack which breaks your combo. If it's equal level, you will always connect.

sonic pecan
#

I'm seeing links posted in-game on cheap gil. Is this a scam, or...?

whole wasp
#

Real-money trading can get your account banned

leaden ginkgo
#

I always report them

#

It's a scam as well

whole wasp
#

also FF is relatively popular right now. These types of gold/gil farmer always pop up

sonic pecan
#

All right.

remote lintel
#

if someone sends you a sus link then its 99% likely a scam

#

and yes people do lose their accounts from clicking them

sonic pecan

cedar wing

am i allowed to ping people in my datacenter

remote lintel
#

you cant ping the DC roles iirc

cedar wing
#

then im gonna get no one...

trail elk
#

Do I get iframes during dragoon jumps

whole wasp
#

no. iframes do not exist

leaden ginkgo
#

how can i improve my campaion heals
my chocobo heals 200 hp .

trail elk
#

So I get hit midair regardless?

shrewd owl
#

yes

remote lintel
#

yes

#

youre technically not in the air

whole wasp
#

while you are doing the animation, your hitbox is still where you were when you started jumping

remote lintel
#

game wise your jumps are just you sliding along the ground

trail elk
#

Funny thing is I remember in monster hunter world when you did the dragoon jump emote it would give you iframes lol

#

So I was assuming the same thing for the longest

whole wasp
#

yea. dragoon jump is OP in monhun

hard aurora
#

and cool

#

lol

whole wasp
#

all we got was shitty rathalos armor

#

but at least we got palico

tropic flame
#

feed him or kill mobs with him

#

then use the skill points on healing tree

leaden ginkgo
#

whar rank should it be for good healing

#

output

remote lintel
#

put more points in the healing tree

#

its healing is never going to be amazing

tropic flame
#

just max it out if it helps

leaden ginkgo
#

what about its gear

remote lintel
#

it doesnt have gear

patent citrus
#

Anyone knows how much poetics can one accumulate while getting access to elemental+1 armory?

leaden ginkgo
#

and only put all tree to healing ?

remote lintel
#

no

trail elk
#

I just got dragoon cause I wanted to for HW so it felt authentic but it’s actually pretty fun

remote lintel
#

max out healing first if you want to

#

you can do all 3 trees

leaden ginkgo
#

ok

#

thanks

patent citrus
#

Yeah get level 10 healing is first and dps after that

#

Tank is the weakest tree

leaden ginkgo
#

some people have diffrent color what does that mean

tropic flame
#

you can dye your choco

remote lintel
#

nothing

#

its cosmetic

trail elk
#

I thought chocobo color was like something that happens when it grows

patent citrus
#

Use Chocobo calculator and feed it in order according to the calculator

leaden ginkgo
#

so all chocobo are the same there's no tier or something like that

remote lintel
#

yes

leaden ginkgo
#

wll done

#

thanks folks

trail elk
#

What’s the point of leveling up your chocobo

patent citrus
#

To get the colour you want

trail elk
#

Do you get something?

remote lintel
#

helps you in combat

patent citrus
#

It's very useful in doing open world content

wispy basalt
#

it helps you in combat

#

like farming fates as dps

trail elk
#

Most of the time people are over leveled for open world stuff either way

remote lintel
#

you get synced during fates

wispy basalt
#

not for fates

trail elk
#

Do people actively do fates?

patent citrus
#

Doing job and MSQ as well

remote lintel
#

yes

wispy basalt
#

yes

trail elk
#

It’s something I just do while waiting for queue

remote lintel
#

some content requires it

trail elk
#

Not something I seek out

remote lintel
#

like i need to farm them for the cool weapon i want

#

so i use my chocobo

wispy basalt
#

to help u

#

in combat

#

while farming

remote lintel
#

no i sacrifice him

wispy basalt
#

im dead rn

patent citrus
#

Anyone knows how much poetics can one accumulate while getting access to elemental+1 armory?

#

Is it a lot?

little swift
#

you'd easily cap many times, if you're starting from scratch fresh in eureka

#

especially if you tag along through nm trains

patent citrus
#

Nm trains Is like hunt train for Eureka? Ok then I'll try it out

#

Im guessing it's scheduled? Or Eureka is still active during peak hours?

jovial quarry
#

NMs work differently. You have to kill a set number of specific mobs to trigger a NM to spawn, which takes the form of a fate. Each has a respawn timer. So NM trains work together to prep fates and then kill them in sequence.

hot eagle
#

its not rly scheduled, since to spawn fates/nm you need kill specific mobs and it can take a while till it spawns

Im running out of options , trying to fix error code 2002 on my Ps5. Rebooted modem (lan connection) . I cant change firewall settings on pc cuz my pc monitor broke

merry pier
#

I am a potential WoW refugee and I was just wanting to ask a question to the community here: I really enjoy PvP and PvE alike, but I do not care for story or lore on any game. Is it possible for me to find fun in FFXIV? People talk about how awesome the story is but ive just never been a very story driven person, usually playing a game for the content and FFXIV looks beautiful

outer mural
#

You can buy a skip if you're certain you do not care

#

Although that is a pretty penny, and you still need to do Shadowbringers still

merry pier
#

I don't mind to do the quests, I'm just not very story driven is all

#

I would likely level from level 1

outer mural
#

The end-game content is well worth it, people say story first and that's certainly true but the end-game is never really lacking on stuff to do

#

That is fine, the game's story is a total slog if you absolutely give zero shits though because it is LOOOOONG across all 4 expansions

leaden ginkgo
#

where is the prima vista bridge?

outer mural
#

The game is super fun though, story is story but the gameplay isn't affected by it besides content gate

merry pier
#

I see. Follow up, is the story explained through cutscenes or through quest line text?

leaden ginkgo
#

Bit of both

outer mural
#

It's a mix of both yeah

#

kinda like how WoW does it

#

big important stuff in cutscenes, text-only for budget story stuff or exposition outside of it

leaden ginkgo
#

how can i pick up the stormblood alliance raids

merry pier
#

OK, maybe I will enjoy the story and I'll start off by trying to get into it. WoW story never interested me because as it was explained to me is it was the same thing over and over with a different name

leaden ginkgo
#

i went there to the bridge where it says it should be but its not there

#

do i have to finish post stormblood?

honest anvil
#

speak to the guard to enter the airship landing?

outer mural
#

gets faster soon when you start doing dungeons and stuff but be fairly warned you might be bored out of your mind given your explained circumstances

#

it's really a delayed gratification thing

merry pier
#

I have a few more questions if thats okay before I buy and play FFXIV:

  1. I really am not a anime fan, haven't been able to get into it personally, will this be a barrier to entry to the community or jivin with the game?
  2. I really love PVP, I've heard before that its almost non-existant in this game, is this true?
  3. Is the moderation really as strict as I've been told? a old friend told me that he got a ban for asking someone to do more DPS in a dungeon
  4. Is there a lot to do outside of raid/dungeon/pvp?
#

and thats fine, im ok with slower entry, i played runescape for 15 years lol

honest anvil
#

1 don't worry; 2 that's true; 3. most likely false; 4. yes-ish

outer mural
#
  1. Nope, it's a mix of both regular non-weeb fantasy and weeb/anime fantasy. Really, there's no gatekeeping about it and I see there's no distinct divide between weebs/non-weebs
  2. It's not a big focus/popular but it is still there and honestly I like it a lot. Worth a try, not completely dead or abandoned or anything.
  3. Don't be an ass, you'll be fine. Mentioning direct DPS numbers is against the ToS though, as your friend did. It can happen so just try to stay out of trouble.
  4. Tons. May not be your cup of tea for al ot of the stuff but there's a fair amount of it. Large amount of 'hard' content like end-game raids too.
jovial quarry
#

There is no open pvp though. 1v1's aren't a thing outside of the single dueling square in the pvp hub.

outer mural
#

I honestly feel like you could vibe with the character customization, it's not the uguu sugoi desu anime girl creator like some other games can definitely be

#

yeah fair warning the open world in this game is not exactly lively like something you'd expect out of classic WoW

leaden ginkgo
#

is there an lfg channel? i need a lvl 80 for kugane oshi the wait time is 50 mins and im not high enough to beat alone lol

honest anvil
#

put up a pf for it ingame

leaden ginkgo
#

i am but its been 30 mins and no ones joined 🙂

honest anvil
#

ye that one will take a while

#

a looong while

leaden ginkgo
#

RIP

merry pier
#

I see. I am fine with just casual pvp (battleground style) without competitive, or with competitive. I just enjoy the added difficulty of pvp.
If its against the ToS how do we have people improve? I may come from the wrong culture so this could be a compltely void question. And im glad to know there are lots to od

#

do*

mental oracle
#

It's up to them to improve. Not up to someone else to tell them imo.

outer mural
#

It's mainly in-game is the taboo. There are plenty of community resources that encourage people to improve, this being one of them

leaden ginkgo
#

It's parsers, like WoW's recount and skada, that are outright bannable. They're in a grey area

little swift
#

to be fair its wording, mentioning dps is a risky fine toeing of the line

#

but giving advice like, "hey i don't need to be 100% hp all the time, some holy's would make the run more smooth too"

#

isn't bannable

outer mural
#

mhm

#

it's just direct DPS, which may be an issue for someone just flubbing up their rotation which isn't fixable in an instance

little swift
#

you're also absolutely allowed to use parsers, provided you're not a prick with them

#

use them for improvemnt

outer mural
#

yep, just don't mention it for safety reasons

#

I am using one righjt now goblinlaugh

jovial tide
#

Is mentioning aggro list ranking bannable as a measure of DPS?

merry pier
#

ok, and once again im sorry if any of these questions are causing inflamation, I really don't know the game or anything just wanted to know some things before I buy it.

leaden ginkgo
#

Yeah, shaming someone for it isn't allowed. A don't ask don't tell kind of thing

jovial tide
#

Like the sam who is always 8th on the list

outer mural
#

no, as that is an in-game thing that can measure performance

#

it is also not always accurate though

little swift
#

aggro list isn't really an accurate gauge anyways

outer mural
#

and of course don't be mean

little swift
#

nah you're welcome to ask about it here, we're not officially affiliated with SE

outer mural
#

yeah z-dps healers may be like 2 on the list bc they spam medica 2 and genned a bunch of aggro

outer mural
#

also yeah we ain't narcs here

leaden ginkgo
#

That's what this place is here for hon, for helping folks like you

outer mural
#

it's in the name

merry pier
#

So, in my experience WoW community takes it to the next extreme of wishing death on you or others if your dps isnt in a certain area, but I also kinda think that if someone is only auto attacking you may ask them to do a bit more, but then again that probably isnt an issue anyway

glossy flare
#

pointing out someone's mistakes and maybe giving them advice is not a bad thing

#

calling them names is

outer mural
#

yeah no the reason why it's so discussed about being against the TOS is because of that reason regarding toxicity

little swift
#

the thing about most content is that you can do it even if people aren't contributing correctly

outer mural
#

that being said you iwll not get banned for politely pointing out issues with people doing like crap tbh

glossy flare
#

And neither is the expectation of a certain skill or performance level at certain levels of content bad

outer mural
#

like the tank not using mitigations

little swift
#

so its sorta at the point that it doesn't really matter if they're not performing well

outer mural
#

or the healer not throwing out damage spells

little swift
#

that said, if they're actively a liability to the progression of the content you can kick after speaking to them

merry pier
#

Oh ok, so all that was, was that my friend likely over reacting to a situation that didnt need to even be there. got it.

i've watched countless youtube videos on the game, and its beautiful. I love the over the top animations, 1 character = all classes, and the raids look like fun even tho im not much of a raider anywhere else. im excited to see what I can do with the game.

outer mural
#

maybe, idk ur friend and how they reacted so i won't speak bad on them of course but mentioning DPS directly is just not a wise decision is just the issue

#

and yeah no there's a lot good with the game that made me choose it over mMOs

#

the classes being the big reason

little swift
#

there also needs to be a little more context, i'm not going to say your friend isn't normally a saint, but if you're getting banned, usually its because you did more than one thing wrong

#

some people tend to neglect the bits like, "used gamer word repeatedly"

#

to paint themselves in a more blameless light

outer mural
#

but yeah now's one of the best times to get into the game. i think you'll like it, and always feel free to ask moreq uestions

merry pier
#

thats possible, I'm not going to vouch for the saint of him but I wasn't sure of the situation. he did turn me off of the game for about a year or more though, so I'm glad that wrong has been corrected

#

The current classes I am looking at are Dark Knight ( i like tanking ) and Machinist ( irl profession )

little swift
#

and GMs are people too, there can definitely be situations where tehy don't have the full picture and dole out a punishment

#

both of those jobs require you to have beaten the base game and entered the first expansion

#

so you got a ways to go

merry pier
#

Glad I have things to look forward to then

#

Outside of just ilvl lol.

outer mural
#

yeah you may want to look at the starting roster and decide from there

glossy flare
#

If you want to tank from the get go your choices are Gladiator and Marauder at lvl 1 btw

outer mural
#

as you will be a while until those classes

glossy flare
#

which I would recommend, tanking as your first job is a nice experience

dire prawn
#

Healing as your first job is also a nice experience

outer mural
#

DPS be like

#

MY QUEUE TIMES

dire prawn
#

When you switch to tanking you know just how much your healer can handle and it's just a matter of figuring out how many you can pull at once

#

Like me pulling eight or nine mobs in one go which forced my WHM to stop using Cure and use Cure II instead

dusky nebula
#

so i have 30 days game time and if i purchase more will it be added? or do i need to wait until the 30 days (now 29) are over?

silver ruin
#

were crystal tower quests mandatory for doing HW or 5.3 msq?

outer mural
#

if you are not on a recurring sub it'll have you wait

remote lintel
#

you can buy more whenever

#

you cant buy more if youre on recurring

dusky nebula
#

ye not on a recurring sub

outer mural
#

they weren't always but now they are because it's imporant later on to the story

#

oh i see cerb

leaden ginkgo
outer mural
dire prawn
#

Crystal Tower was made mandatory with 5.3

#

You have to complete it to finish post-ARR

silver ruin
#

yea ok that second part was my question, i finished arr 5 years ago and my friend was having problems

#

thanks

gusty island
#

how do i read this in terms of aggro?
watching a vid before tanking a dungeon for the first time and he's just like .. "look at this!" but i dont know what i'm supposed to look at, lol

little swift
#

A = you have aggro for that target

dire prawn
#

You see the red bar and the letter A?

little swift
#

2 means second on the list

dire prawn
#

That means the tank is at the top of the list

#

The numbers on everyone else indicates where they are on that target's aggro list

outer mural
#

the A stands for AAAAAA I'M MAIN TANK

#

genuine question, what does it actually mean?

#

because FFXIV uses emnity as the term right

dire prawn
#

So if the tank dies there the target would switch to the DRG since it's #2

gusty island
#

oh so the numbers can change around if im clicking on different enemies, all else being equal, eh

old current
#

Why do I have to manully Level Sync for FATEs and what happens if I don't?

dire prawn
#

Yes

outer mural
whole wasp
#

if you dont level sync FATEs, they dont allow you to participate in it

dire prawn
gusty island
#

Okay. And the bar shows you the rough percentage of how much aggro you hold from the target enemy?

glossy flare
dire prawn
#

You can't target the mobs and the mobs won't target you

#

However, you can still be hit by their AoE

outer mural
jovial quarry
remote lintel
#

@outer mural ace probably since ace is sometimes used as the highest number in cards

whole wasp
outer mural
#

oh that owuld make sense actually

gusty island
#

what about the bar then? 😳

remote lintel
#

also ace is the highest number in triple triad

gusty island
#

is it just fluff/detail?

outer mural
#

relative aggro from one another usually

whole wasp
#

it shows rough agro levels

outer mural
#

like 2 with a large aggro bar might actually be coming up on 1/A

whole wasp
#

but now that its impossible to snatch agro from a tank just with damage

gusty island
outer mural
#

for example

#

if 2 has an aggro bar filled up to 75%

#

that means they are very close to supercediding the next number on aggro and thus may take aggro themselves

#

which would be 1/A

gusty island
#

Oooh, I see

remote lintel
#

means 2 is almost overtaking 1

jovial quarry
#

Enmity generation values were changed a lot in 5.0 however so it's nearly impossible for anyone to pull from a tank with their stance on unless they're asleep at the wheel.

hollow saddle
#

Hiya, some of the early story trials like ifrit have really long cutscenes before them. Is it possible for the group to attack the boss if one player is watching the cutscenes?

#

Or do they have to wait?

whole wasp
#

in dungeons, its possible for them to start

gusty island
#

appreciate the help as always 😄

hollow saddle
#

Okay thanks 😄
I knew about dungeons, wasn't sure on trials!

whole wasp
#

yea, you'll be put in like a little ring and nobody is allowed to even move

hollow saddle
#

I'm helping a friend through the early parts so I was wondering if I have to tell her to be ready to skip if they pull early 😄

gusty island
#

those are pretty tame cutscenes from what i have experienced by now 😆

whole wasp
#

nah. only dungeons. even then most wait.

hollow saddle
#

Cheers!

gusty island
#

seems to be totally fine to take your time and watch the cutscenes

#

IE accepted by the vast majority of the community, from all ive seen

hollow saddle
#

Most people do wait, yeah.

gusty island
#

if they pull early and die, its on them :p

hollow saddle
#

I do.

#

but some people will rush ahead during the boss intro cutscene.

#

And some boss intros have story before.

gusty island
#

yeah i found that kinda weird as well

hollow saddle
#

It's just really bad design decision, honestly.

remote lintel
#

dont even skip the cutscene if they start the fight

#

Aiming Set is Conservators. yea HW gear naming is kinda weird like that

gritty oracle
#

I think the list usually goes tanks, under that maiming, under that striking, scouting and finally aiming

whole wasp
#

if you ever forget, just look for which main stat it adds

rugged flicker
whole wasp
#

since BRD, look for dex gear

rugged flicker
#

I have excess tomestones.

#

Gotta use 'em on something.

#

Already have too many seals and too many venture tokens.

gritty oracle
#

I recommend buying anima components instead, or topsoil and sell

open rivet
#

can always just throw up some materials for your anima or relic

rugged flicker
#

How good are anima components these days?

#

Price-wise.

gritty oracle
#

6000 total for the first step. It's untradable

#

So you can't buy/sell ot

whole wasp
#

some of the mats cant be bought until you reach the relevant quest step too.

#

honestly, buy whatever you like

#

there is no wrong way since poetics is so easy to get

rugged flicker
#

Well anyway, eventually I'll get all the endgame armor for 60, 70, and the lower end of 80, then I'll do it.

#

I'm wanting to have a job leveled for the fifth role quest type that will be added in 6.0.

gritty oracle
#

Do you have that sort of inventory space? I envy you

rugged flicker
#

And I've been wanting to have those instruments for awhile.

#

So might as well have bard.

whole wasp
#

just dump them into retainers/saddlebag

#

if you galaxy brain, dump them into glamour dresser

rugged flicker
#

And I just got a third retainer, so that helps.

open rivet
#

just dump them into retainers/saddlebag
if you galaxy brain, dump them into glamour dresser
implying one has slots free in those

Fair, I'm an omnicrafter and savage raider who's into all manners of relics, housing and gardening, as well as playing all jobs on at least a leveling level.

how important is it to read all the ARR MSQ story?

glossy flare

you created a character on a preferred server

so for 90 days you get double xp up to lvl 70

remote lintel

you can skim some parts but ideally you read it all

elder pagoda
#

Ah okay, thanks

random dune

what if taking notice of cutscenes and not all the text? 😂

elder pagoda

Just joined Bc my friends are on it lol

remote lintel

theres still important things in text

as long as you know whats going on

ay yeah, i know the jist of it mooglethink

I heavily recommend at least paying attention during the big moments

random dune

ayee thats kinda what im doing now

#

i used to read it all but ARR feels slow already

#

and im not a good reader, i dont really take all the info in anyway

I get being a bit bored with how ARR presents itself but ultimately it's important for the "good" parts of the story that follow

flint plume

i feel dumb, how do i know what world im in again

alpine shadow

should be in the top right part of the game

Is shire gear the best option during HW? I’m a lil overleveled (66 RDM) and was wondering if I should even bother buying the set vs buying gear from market

glossy flare
#

nah, it's the best you can get for now

#

technically you would have access to better gear at around 65 but that requires stormblood access and progression

normal grotto

how is it that my gcd lowers by 0.05 as DRG when entering delubrum despite not wearing any gear with haste bonus

it's really annoying

i dont remember if role stats give sks

normal grotto

my sks is 380 so it's at the bottom

The role stats is just pure damage/hp/healing, IIRC

#

If you mean the one from having different roles in the party

whole wasp
#

yea its just main stats

obsidian patio
#

Also Bozja content doesn’t put you at 2.5 GCD for whatever reason

As the default

normal grotto

so i wasn't losing my marbles

Bozja content has preset stats

Having said that they should be visible on the character sheet when you're inside any of it

Hope this isn't too stupid of a question but is WHM much different compared to SCH? how easy is it to get used to WHM as a SCH main?

dire prawn
#

Yes

#

SCH is more of a proactive shielding healer

#

WHM is pretty much entirely a reactive healer

gritty oracle
dire prawn
#

You have a lot of regen and burst heals, and a lot of oGCD heals as well

gritty oracle
#

As a SCH main, I can't stand whm, but I recognize it's very powerful

There's the Parkside Tree, which looks very different, the willow, which is a willow, and the cherry tree, which is iirc mogstation

And the autumn Gingko tree

I'm surprised TEA hasnt become, like "carry-able"?

none of the ultimates are carry-able i think

gritty oracle
#

Yeah theyre very hard
Also one person sucking can wipe the entire run

stable herald
#

Well.. my 400ms ping ass is gonna just admire the weaps from afar

#

Does TEA require you to do precise timings for buffs etc?

gritty oracle
#

Where do you live? Moving to your closest data centre can cut ping dramatically

#

Probably yeah, iirc the DPS check is still a thing

stable herald
#

Long story short: live far away because work.

ashen hazel
#

hey guys

#

is there a way to get rid off invalid target message

stable herald
#

??? What do you mean by that

dire prawn
#

Stop selecting invalid targets

stable herald
#

Like is it a constant message?

ashen hazel
#

yh it is

#

its just the sound

stable herald
gritty oracle
#

I think you can turn off the messages showing in chat, but not them flashing on the screen
Also in macros you can write /merror off to disable error messages

stable herald
#

But doesnt that mean one of your skills/macros is being incorrectly used?

gritty oracle
#

I think disabling the chat messages also disables the noise? At least it did for invalid altitude

whole wasp
#

sounds like GCD not ready sound?

gritty oracle
ashen hazel
#

all good, went to system config, and turned off system sound

#

thanks for the help though

dire prawn

Is queue popping tied to system sound

yes, every job has their own level
some jobs might start at 30/50/60 though

going from lancer to dragoon does not mean you start at lvl 1 again though

If someone decides to report you over it, I guess since against TOS

casturm spawns every 1 hour ?

gritty oracle

Yes, but reduced for people doing CEs

And maybe skirmishes

#

So in actuality if people do the content, it pops back up fairly quick

leaden ginkgo
#

how do i know if there's a casturm

glossy flare
#

it'll act like a CE

gritty oracle
#

Check the CE list, it'll show Castrum if it's underway. Otherwise ask in shout chat

glossy flare

and you can then register for it like with any other CE

leaden ginkgo
#

ce ?

#

o

#

ok

Thanks !

#

do i need something special for casturm

#

like lost action

glossy flare

no specifically required one, but essences are strongly recommended

so what to take

glossy flare
glossy flare

any other actions you wanna bring are on you

Gathering points = nodes

leaden ginkgo
#

Spots where you can gather

#

I'm lost. Not sure what does that mean

gritty oracle
#

Do you have gatherers?

leaden ginkgo
#

No

jade quartz
#

Such as a rock you can mine or a tree you can cut.

#

Those are "nodes"

leaden ginkgo
#

How do I mine them

warm snow
#

Then get a gatherer and do the first 2 quests and you'll understand what we mean

leaden ginkgo
#

Do I need a pickaxe or something

warm snow
gritty oracle
#

Then you should unlock that, and then go out of the city gates. You'll see shiny points with names like "lv5 rocky outcrop" or "lv10 lush vegetation". Those are gathering nodes

leaden ginkgo
#

Miner.. is that a job as well

gritty oracle
#

Yes

#

Not a combat job, but a gathering job. There are three types of jobs: combat classes (disciples of war and magic), crafters (disciples of the hand) and gatherers (disciples of the land)

#

It's very strongly recommended that you level gatherers if you plan on crafting

#

To gather your own crafting ingredients

jade quartz
#

To unlock the miner class, head to the miners' guild in Ul'dah.

#

botanists' guild is in Gridania and fishermen's guild is in Limsa Lominsa.

gritty oracle
#

Fishing works differently than botanist and miner, it's more luck and patience based

leaden ginkgo
#

can any controller player tell me how to actually target something deliberately? It always feels like a roulette when there are more than 2 enemies and its impossible to heal some random while fighting.. I feel like there are some settings i miss

warm snow
#

Party members are up/down on dpad

leaden ginkgo
warm snow
#

Depends on your targetting settings. Honestly I don't bother healing randos in fates

leaden ginkgo
#

seems like ill have to do a deep dive into settings..its a slog but probably the best i can do

can i create an alt account with steam

Why would you

You cannot register both Steam and Non-Steam PC versions of the game on the same service account.

They're mutually exclusive.

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

so i can only have 1 steam account via ffxiv account?

i wanna get eu via steam

alpine shadow
#

? not sure what that question is

#

why would you want to do that?

leaden ginkgo
#

how to create another free trial via the same steam account

alpine shadow
#

you can't

#

free trial is only limited once to one service account

#

you can't have multiple free trial service accounts in one account

leaden ginkgo
#

what i want another service account

#

i need another steam account?

alpine shadow
#

if you already bought it, then yes

leaden ginkgo
#

1: 1?

alpine shadow
#

you can only buy only one ffxiv starter edition and expac trough one steam account

leaden ginkgo
#

ok

alpine shadow
#

if you do register that starter edition as a seperate service account, you won't be able to upgrade the first free trial service account

#

is what i would believe

#

i am not quite sure if you can just buy any ffxiv steam code and think it should work on any steam service account

What is dmc and what is smn lol, good morning all

void venture
#

alpine shadow
#

SMN = Summoner
DNC = Dancer

dire prawn

Whereas SMN is arguably the hardest job to play

arctic epoch

Ahhh, that's the next job I 2ant to play, summoner

jade quartz
#

SMN is fine

arctic epoch
#

They look good

void venture
#

i got lv 80 drk pld bard mch

A bit unintuitive for a beginner especially since most people level it by leveling scholar and never actually get used to playing it by itself

void venture
#

wanna tryout dancer

#

since i cant do savage at all

mental oracle
whole wasp
#

DNC is considered one of the easiest jobs to play. doesnt mean that SMN is exceptionally hard

#

SMN is complex in that it has a long rotation compared to the other jobs but its not super hard.

arctic epoch
#

I started as a Blackmage, then transitioned to samurai, I'll him to 80 then I'll try put summoner

gritty oracle
#

SMN is also getting a major rework in half a year

arctic epoch
#

So many jobs I'd love to try, but I know I won't ever have time

gritty oracle
#

You don't have to get them to lv80 right away. You can dabble a bit of this, then try that, etc

mental oracle
arctic epoch
#

But at 80 you really get a feel of what they're like, oh well I'm still a long way anyways

gritty oracle
#

I'd say you get a good picture of what the job looks like around 50-60, depending on the job

arctic epoch
#

I have about 4 hours of Gametime at best during weekdays

gritty oracle
#

Remember that aside from seasonal events, no quest is going anywhere :)

mental oracle
#

The game will be a race only if you make it to be

arctic epoch

Not trying to race anywhere too much information i need to gather, I'll have to search seasonal events up later today, is it end game content?

gritty oracle

No, it's basically Christmas, Easter etc

lapis portal
#

Lmao Valid

jade quartz
#

Direct Hits are mini-crits.

Crit stat also increases the damage which critical hits do, as well as just the chance.

Direct Hit Rate only affects the chance.

Crit > DH > Det

dire prawn
#

SpS is bad because RDM has dualcast and inherently low cast times on its shortcast abilities

jade quartz

RDM likes to operate at low SpS, 2.50, 2.49 or 2.48 GCD

#

2.49 is theoretical best

I don't think 2.50 is attainable anyway

The other servers will be mostly japanese

rocky crest
#

...thats unfortunate.

jade quartz
#

Any server on Elemental will be ok

#

those two are by far the best though

rocky crest
#

kind of a bummer. I was looking forward to playing after work. Guess it's not the right time to try FFXIV. Thanks for help though!

jade willow
#

finite hare
#

are tank queues painful all the way to the max level? I try to queue up as 33 DRK but wait times are always 5-8 mins, on my astrologian tho i get instant queues no matter what i select T_T

agile laurel
#

tame plinth
#

what do i need to do to unlock kaizan for TTT? wikis say do his quest, but the quest isn't there for me. the quest requirement is Stormblood MSQ. i've completed SHB.
whenever i talk to him all he says is: I would love to play but i need to watch out for traitors

finite hare
#

@agile laurel well fair enough D:

strong lark
#

Are there any commands or macros for your chocobo targeting?

#

My Chocobo likes to continuously attack /soothe quest mobs so sometime after they are out of combat

shut panther
#

Surprising*

#

Tank queues are generally, at worst, comparable to healers from my experience

leaden ginkgo
#

hey, what does turn in mean for levequests? i thought you can only do them once

jade quartz
#

Levequests are repeatable.

leaden ginkgo
faint flare
#

Provided you have enough leve allowances yes

leaden ginkgo
#

what are leve allowances? forgive my noobiness

faint flare
#

How many times you can do leves

#

It's at the bottom of your journal

#

You get 3 per 12 hours, caps at 100

leaden ginkgo
#

where do i find the journal again?

faint flare
#

Press J by default iirc

leaden ginkgo
#

oh shoot

finite hare
#

@shut panther so they get better in time? Because right now i'm queueing in ARR stuff as my dark knight is level 33, and it is usually 5 to 8 minutes of waiting

leaden ginkgo
#

that means i can do 60 leves?

faint flare
#

Yes

agile laurel
#

leaden ginkgo
#

agile laurel
#

#

MSQ and achievements are a few ways to get some interesting ones

halcyon tulip
#

Conjurer gets an unicorn from a sidequest

hearty mango
#

modest igloo
#

Yeah but that’s late game stuff

faint flare

The unarmoured ones

heavy wadi

how does transferring ownership of a cwls work?

mental oracle
#

Can you request datacenter transfer?

faint flare
#

Home world transfer on mogstation

rustic flare
#

Is anyone having issues with their W,A, S, D keys in game. They are not working for me.

heavy wadi
#

rustic flare
#

Sadly i do not. I will have to buy one.

mental oracle
faint flare
#

No

#

To ANY other world

mental oracle
#

oh ok

rustic flare
#

And all four of the said keys are working here. But not in game and i cannot figure out why.

heavy wadi
#

Did they get unbound somehow?

#

check your keybinds

rustic flare
#

And not only that. All of my keybinds in game are broken even though they are set to default.

heavy wadi
slate arrow
#

Have you unplugged and restarted your keyboard and computer?

#

Alternatively, do you have alt held down

rustic flare
#

I play on a gaming laptop.

slate arrow
#

Is your gaming laptop software on by any chance like razer chroma or something

rustic flare
#

Nope

#

I have a HP Pavilion Gaming laptop

night oxide
#

can anyone help me with choosing a dps tracker

#

i believe someone recommended ACT before

glossy flare
#

!faq act

ACT/Parsing

Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.

ACT/FFLogs Guide

Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.

oh, awesome, ty

mystic merlin
#

when do duties reset?

next portal
#

do anybody do rival wings or frontline?

tropic flame
next portal
#

so if i am lvl 40, i will be matchmade to fight players at lvl 80?

tropic flame
#

your level will automatically switch to 80 in pvp

#

and your skills will all be different, so its recommended you sort out your hotbar in the pvp area ^^

next portal
tropic flame
#

yep

#

it'll be all synced

next portal
#

ooh even gear will be synced up to 80

#

so all the pvp activities are synced up to 80, so purely based on skill?

finite hare
#

any disadvantages to play on preferred server? the one which gives you road to 70 buff? what is the difference between that and established one

next portal
tropic flame
#

at least from my experience

next portal
finite hare
#

@next portal is duty finder data center wide or only for a server? do you lose your road to 70 if server changes status? any cons of playing on such server? 🙂

Ah I see. Thanks ^^

rich bay

only chest that'd (potentially) be against the whole alliance is the final boss chest with cosmetic stuff (i.e orchestrions etc)

daring jay
#

So I have the sprout icon meaning I'm a new player (I think) What's the icon for mentor?

twilit arch
#

jade quartz

jade quartz
#

Mentors ingame don't have a great reputation though

warm snow
#

And that's all final form relics afaik

jade quartz
#

there's not a high barrier to become one.

warm snow
#

Well it's high enough now

#

But still not super difficult

daring jay
#

Oh so don't rely on them

#

# daring jay come here lol

Yes, we strongly recommend coming here for advice and information because we police ourselves a lot better than in-game mentors tend to

We may be a little biased to say we’re better, but… we are

if it's the blue gear it's because you're on your base job, you need to equip your soul stone
