If u wanna count eureka as similar there's that
Yep
Eureka is stormblood
i c
Zadnor is basically part of bozja
Eureka has 4 seperate zones for ot
Yes
Might as well go Zadnor for the higher population and better mettle
im gonna stuck with bozja until im satisfy
guys any idea?
zadnor patch 5.55 ?
pray
Is your c drive full?
Yes
ayy
Yes Zadnor was this patch
thanks
how much can you get on a BiS 700 potency crit say scorch?
what is quick launcher?
!faq quicklauncher
This can't help if you lack the space for the game tho
I’m almost bis on MCH and my Drill crits are over 100k
ohhh
It saves what it already downloaded
just drill or buffed
Well reassemble usually but I’ve gotten more crits with bis
I've only been able to see a dhit crit on scorch hit over 100k but I'm very far from bis lol
I hit 60k scorch non crit
yeah normally it's around there
i get almost 200k scorch crit and I've i521
Unless you’re doing savage you don’t need bis
you get BiS via sav anyways xD
That’s the point lol
o
Bis matters the most there, outside of savage you don’t need it
what do i need for unlocking Zadnor along side reaching patch 5.55 msq
technically you dont even need it for doing sav 
Beat delebrium reginae
i remember getting 200k with buffs on i521 scorch what number can i expect with BiS
That’s more a balance discord question
They have a gear calculator
No
ah i c
Raid story has nothing to do with bozja
Does anyone know when the daily reset is? (in Server Time)
not bozja ;-;
!daily
ty
You need to be rank 10 to unlock CLL which you need to beat to unlock DR which unlocks Zadnor
Aka do blue quests
i dont need a relic quest and Save the Queen storyline. ?
google ||wasting||
at which level can you do a dark night?
50 and heavensward story progress
Is he the best tank?
!faq meta
Same
All tanks have the same amount of AoE
Same as the others
Tanks are fairly well-balanced.
All 4 tanks are around 5% of each other at the highest level of play
What do you think we will say
There is a slight meta, but it’s barely noticeable. Not enough to overcome player skill.
how good you are plays more of a role than what tank you play
But no, strictly speaking, DRK does not do the most optimal damage.
;-;
I saw that edit. 
If you want x tank to be the best play it
When you're looking at a provisions levemete and it has a star next to it, what does that mean?
Double rewards
means they’ll give more exp/a bonus
Oooh
Stacks with HQ bonus
So i can play my paladin in end content wihtout getting flamed for playing a bad class?
job*
No
Ye, PLD is fine. No one will flame you.
You can play ANY JOB
Dark Knight has a 360 aoe. Marauder has a cone aoe
Unless they're a dick
Only get flamed if you're garbage
Sorry to ask this right after “there’s no meta,” but are there any classes that perform poorly in ultimates? Just wondering if I can take anything in, or if old content scaling is weird. I noticed that usage %’s were much more skewed than they were for the current tier.
Okay okay and what about the rotation atleast that needs to be different right? which one of the tanks has the fastest or smoothest rotation?
Gunbreaker is slick
I just got the message "You sense the presence of a powerful mark" but I'm inside a city?
No there's not
Define city
Sounds like a boss fate
WAR has the most straightforward rotation, and GNB has the highest-paced one.
that’s not a city
Ye, you’re still in the wild dunes. Only city-states and sanctuaries are completely safe.
Thats an s rank hunt notification
ah ok
cities are limsa, ul’dah, gridania, etc
New jobs do better in old content since they're not technically balanced for that old content. So gnb and dnc have a small advantage in lv70 ultimates. But any job is still viable in ultimates
And at what level can i do Gunslicker?
Oh, gotcha. Thanks!
60
Outside that, pld makes a better ot than Mt since it lacks auto recovery in its standard combo but that's nitpicky optimization that's not necessary
Aiii 60 is harsh
It came with the level 80 expansipn
The new Endwalker jobs will require lv70
Also it starts at 60
Harsh
It start at 60 lol
It doesn’t play like a typical tank, so you may as well practice something else in the meantime.
Now thats alright
Jobs start at different levels depending on when they were introduced
Arr jobs start at 1
Hw at 30
Sb at 50
Shb at 60
Endwalker at 70

We also have this
Does warrior get the 2x circle aoe like paladin does? Afaik it only has a cone and a single circle aoe and i don't remember the paladin having a cone AOE
It gets cone then a circle
Cone into circle
And decimate
IF you only get cone it's not the same aoe if you ask me,t hat would make marauder require extra skill to hit those cones.
Warrior is the only tank that has a cone aoe
Same amount of aoe
i mean, not only cone sorry,
Variety is the spice of life
And cones aren't that hard
It’s not that difficult to hit cones. You’ll struggle a bit at the start, but you’ll adjust.
if you get used it, you might never want to go back to circular one, lol
2 hit aoe that's whats the same
360 covers more area than cone
Ye, but cones extend further front, so sometimes you forget to move closer in for circles. Circles are easier, but it’s not a big skill differential.
360 Also is better when running and attacking. You can hit enemies behind you
I hit enemies behind me when running
Cause you turn briefly when using skills
You just need 1 functioning braincell
How do you unlock Coerthas Western highlands?
through msq
Thanks

Yep, 360 is definitely easier @exotic flume
Do those white dots indicate I have an upgrade? Because I looked through my inventory and I don't have an upgrade for those slots.
I think that's spiritbond 100%
Extract materia
Spiritbond
Oh, ty
You’re welcome 👍
Hey guys just downloaded FFXIV from XIV launcher. But downloaded in Local Drive C. Can I move to Local drive D. Will it work after I move it
yes
Yes
Oh great thank youuuu 👍
Which HoH floor do you need to beat to get the new queue when starting saves?
30
30
ahh alright
👍
Guys what's the best antivirus that also cleans PC
Where is the guy to train me warrior?
If you haven’t unlocked warrior yet then continue your quests at the Marauders’ Guild. If you are already a warrior and looking for the questgiver, it’s Curious Gorge just north of Costa del Sol.
Should I use snagging 100% of the time? (the fisher skill)
sorry I didn't see answer for my question, what class and level should I take for get Ninja ?
Rogue -> Lvl 30
I used Rogue and my level is 41 right now
!faq job
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
There is job quests that you have to do
Ohh ok thanks 🙂
EVER
honestly theres no real info for what fish its useful for specifically. i only know you have to turn it on if you want to fish for maps.
Good to know
you do need it to fish for some clams, mussels type stuff
Generally that type of non moving shellfish
Oh and coral
I'll use it if I ever need something specific
Otherwise it'll catch maps proportional to the level of whatever fishing hole you're at
Hey, anyone know when was Ramuh locked in elemental?
friends where looking to create characters on it, seems like all 2x xp servers locked out
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
See above@steep kiln
It's the middle of the afternoon on a Saturday (at least here) so yeah
Heyo. Im a returning player. And i tried PotD for the first time. Did a random PUG. And after we finished floor 10. I left and went from lvl 1 to lvl 3 on the outside
Isnt it just waaaay faster to kill normal mobs around the world? :O
I thought PotD was supposed to be the "speedy alt-leveling method"
Ty :D
Absolutely not
Killing normal mobs is not a remotely viable way to level.
However PotD isn’t good for very low levels.
To level from 1–15ish you should just to your class hunting log
Which I guess is technically killing normal overworld mobs but only those which are hunting log objectives.
Yeah i worded that pretty bad. I meant for level 1 to 3 xD It would have been faster to just kill stuff normally. My bad
!faq altlvlguide
Ahh. Good to know about the low level potd thing!
Looks like i didnt do enough research about it at all!
Thanks :D
And thanks for linking the lvling guide!
How do I reduce the scale of my chat window?
not the thing in the corner you can drag
Looking like roblox scaling next to the rest of my UI https://gyazo.com/2f5ca9f6f010b5fb9417a71f579e81f6
Does only one instance of Zadnor exist or are there multiple?
I screwed myself out of doing Dalriada and I wondered if I could salvage that blunder by entering one that doesn't have it ongoing
yes, many instances may be active at a time
you can leave and join an instance where dal just spawned, and not have to wait to enter it
I could be wrong but did you try right clicking the chat box? Maybe above general or something, or clicking that gear at the end? I think there's a way to edit everything about the chatbox there.
make the actual chat-box smaller or as in making the text smaller?
scaling this down, specifically https://gyazo.com/55577e22e1d77b030bd18b62eb44d115
only options for font size and window trans. in the chat settings
the edens promise savage is limited for times per week?
Yeah, 1 clear per week (that gives you rewards)
ty
It's suspected that this will unlock on Tuesday with patch 5.57
No guarantees but reasonably likely
Are there any Triple Triad tournaments in which I can use my own cards? Also, is there a way to directly challenge other players?
Is 5.57 this Tuesday?
22nd yes
Cool
Yes regular triple TT tournaments which are separate from open tournaments. There is one on right now.
How do I find said tournament? I only seem to be put into the draft one.
They last a week or two? You play 20 tournament matches and score points
Don’t speak to the open tournament official
What's faster for Tomes, Matoya's Relict, or Paglth'an?
hi guys. i just unlocked hunt boards
how do i check it?
it's not on the hunting log
Speak to the tournament record keeper on the opposite side of the card hall.
Open tournaments are the quick casual version of actual tournaments
ooh
How do I level my squadron? Just keep sending them out on missions?
thanks
Pags probably faster cause less downtime between pulls
Dummy teleporters and all
Thank you!!! 😄
And do the stat training if need be
You can’t challenge players directly to tournament matches however, you must queue for them through the battlehall instance
ty
What’s gonna be in patch 5.57?
Oh, neat.
memphina earring works for eureka level?
No
also better party up with 2 people while killing normal mob or?
Elemental xp =\\= xp
how's the exp distributed?:
ok
I see a lot of people with passenger mounts here.. leveling together
3x mobs with same level? or 1x mob 4 level higher than me
cause of that "chain bonus"
Should i recruit BLM or keep this team ?
Do you have an issue with meeting mind?
mind? 🤔
The second squadron stat
i cant find any minimum stat at level 40 tier 3 missions
You pick jobs for their stats or to meet chemistries
You usually don't meet all 3 of those
Oh you are supposed to do those with 1 missing /
I always do those missions by meeting all the requirments
Even with everyone capped I can't hit them all
It's a 33% chance per stat met
Only flagged missions need all 3 met
ah..
what about the quest called
"Imperial Recon"
its level 40 the one that gives you exp
If it doesn't say "flagged mission" then you don't need all 3
so max i can get is 66%
when you gift someone a mount on mogstation does it email them? or does it just show up in their mailbox
Does the type of construction permit you buy for your housing estate (wood, composite, stone) matter significantly, or is it just what exterior your house starts off with?
Just exterior
You get an item code which you give them to put into mogstation
Can someone explain to me what the mogstation is?
So I started SHB relic quest, am I able to bring two weapons to the timeworm artifact step and not have to do it for both of the weapons?
Only 1 version of the quest cam be active
But as long as it's Active you can farm more of it
Okay, thank you
so.. iguess now that ive "unlocked" my first known means of acquiring allegories and revelations
i am being told that fates is a ... more productive way of acquiring them
my nonexistent knowledge of fate trains aside, is that still true...
if anything i'd rather engage with something thats vaguely familiar
are they the same thing ?
No
well shit
well, thats a start, i'll.. investigate that
You are very astute and a treasure among duty finder healers
your reasoning is absolutely correct
and no, Essential Dignity is not just for emergencies
You have observed correctly and should carry on the way you are
make use of the low cooldown and keep the dmg gcd rolling
where can i subscribe to ffxiv after my 30 day game time runs out?
ty
I pre-ordered the Endwalker Digital Collector's Edition and am only seeing the "owned" icon under the standard column -- is this correct?
Yes
Thank you! 🙏
hi everyone, i am now wanting to start working on my laws order weapon and i was wondering how do i hit resistance rank 10 in bozja? are there groups or like a disc to join? i went to that area and was totally confused LOL
Just follow the story quests and shout for group and keep doing skirmishes ( fates ) and critical engagements
You do fates and Ces for mettle
yes, it's just a preorder bonus atm
Because it's player updated
Is there an option to refresh or something?
@pine onyx universalis is not fetched from real-time, its player updated
What's player updated
@pine onyx because that's the last time the plugin updated the site, that was the price
trough xivlauncher
It requires you to use a third party plugin to scrape and update the data
no
No
There used to be mogboard which used bots to update but all of their accounts were banned
Unlucky
So universalis is the best one we've got
Universalis is the best option we have
is there still no in-game FC finder ?
there is not
There is not
Usually, how often do people refresh it?
!faq communityfinder
ay caramba
anywhere from now to never
everytime someone who has the plugin and watches that item ingame
it just depends on who has the plugin and is looking at the item
Depends on the item and its rate of sales
And random chance of who has the plug-in
Endgame items are generally always up to date
That's too bad
is there a way for me to check how much longer my planet (goblin) will remain "preferred" and continue to offer its "road to 70" bonus?
no, but usually with big patches
Guess I'm not gonna use that frog lure to push to 45
So it's likely 5.57 this Tuesday will change it
Try the market on other worlds
I did
I came from ragnarok
They all sell huge stacks of lures
which makes no sense
you see when the market was last updated https://img.thaun.dev/tjedt.png
yeah, not a popular item to search up
usually best when it is something new, and purchased alot
I'll just push for one more level in burning wall
Hey, guys should I avoid side quest and focus in the main history or do everything?
if you really really want to do side quests, do so, but it is not required
- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.
Thanks.
re: the pre-order, will i need to enter another code later or is the one for the items all i'll need?
also is it just a matter of waiting a while before i get those items in my mogbox?
Hey ppl, i'm lvl 46, to continue with the MSQ, i've got to be 49. Would you recommend me something in particular, or to unlock anything mandatory for a later lvl or anything really to get to 49 ? ( i've done all the class / job quests )
There's another code latwe
run dungeons
Run your leveling roulette once
go to the duties and roulette on a dungeon for leveling
And then your highest available dungeon
yeah precisely
Is there a good place to leave feedback where a developer could listen? It’s mostly feedback about accessibility.
how do i find out how much longer my planet (goblin) remains a preferred server?
The official forums on the lodestone website
i want to know when my 2x EXP buff expires in terms of dates
You don’t, this was answered earlier
was it?
World statuses are changed every patch but we don’t know if goblin specifically will be changed
Exp buff is guaranteed to last 90 days even if server status changes.
It's measured by a metric that only SE knows to determine if it would stay preferred
oh, i read online that these road to 70 buffs run for 90 days
correct
it's 90 days or when the server stops being preferred
whichever lasts longer between the two
90 days from when the player creates their character on the planet, or 90 days for the planet
90 days from character creation
k thanks
They’re called worlds or servers, not planets

That is a leve quest
each region has it's own tier of lv quests
Nooooooooo
zone, rather
nah that's like the worst one you could choose
I have to admit that’s pretty funny
Levequests suck for combat jobs to begin with
I cleared castrum abania and quest didnt proceed 
Secondly that's a level 10 levequest
Open the duty finder with U by default
oops
select the leveling tab in your duty finder and click on whatever highest level dungeon you have
Select duty roulette: leveling
So it gives okay ish exp, for a level 10 job
No, first select duty roulette leveling
i guess you should do that leve thing at some point just to get acquainted with them, but yeah do what Lyon is telling you to do
this?
Yes
why is it only lvl 16 though if he's at ARR MSQ lvl 49
The levelling one selects a random levelling dungeon that you can currently access. If the dungeon is far below your current job level it gives extra exp payout proportional to the level difference
oh because cropped
Level 16 minimum to do levelling roulette
that's the min level because the first two dungeons are level 15 and 16
thank you guys
After doing roulette once, switch to doing your highest level dungeon
got it
The roulette exp bonus only applies once daily
Where can I get better equipment in shadowbringers? I’m on level 76 quests and still have like level 403 equipment
But it’s huge
oh wow, good to know all this stuff!
Hey everyone, i have a question on behalf of a friend of mine. He got this message last night when trying to purchase a timecard for an fc buddy '"To be fair to our other customers, purchases of this product are limited"
Now hes worried he'll never be able to buy another one again, and no one had come across the error message like...ever xD (respectfully so xD)
Quest rewards and dungeons provide all the gear you need
or you can pay some dude 100k for a lvl 50 staff with a +33 int bonus 😂
Don’t do that
joking
hey guys I have a question. I cant access my hunting logs for any classes, I already completed up to lvl 15 rogue quest and still cant access them. on my other character i was able to access them from lvl 1
anyone had this happen before?
You only need a minimum ilevel of 390 to get through all the item level restricted content
You need to unlock the other classes first
No
just the ARR ones
No you don’t
Wtf is that class spread
Wait
You don't have
A single not-ARR class
At 50
But you have all the expansion jobs
The fuck
You need to finish the level 10 quests for your starter job
Level boost.
i started a new character and lvl boosted
The level skips have janked something up somewhere
yikes
i have done that
You need to do that to even unlock other jobs
^
that is mad weird even for a 1 week old noob to this game
What job did you start as
DRK
No
Rogue is not a starter job
No
START as
No
i'm lvl 55 thrm / 52 rdm / 55 blm and that all makes sense
As in. What did you pick
Which job did you select during character creation
When you created
When you created your character
What did you select in character creation?
uhmm gladiator i think
Go do your gladiator quests
Then go get that to lv10
get that to 10?
Then get that to 10 including quests and get back to us
And do it's job quests
oh ok thanks guys
Should be just the first quest actually.
Hey! I often get crashed while doing stuff with my botany gathering log. Can someone explain why? This is the error I get:
Iirc your initial job quest gives your hunting log but you skipped that
So you're probably not flagged to have a hunting log at all
This is correct
how much is a lvl skip anyways, what does it boost your job to.. 70?
Yes
Idk and 70
Lv 70 for $25
This isn't the reason we say not to job skip on your first character, but it's a new one
Story skip is another $25 to go to the start of ShB
so if i boosted RDM to 70 and I am 55 thrm, i'd still be 55 thrm?
Yeah
I hope you mean 55 BLM
sounds kinda weird
But yes
You'd also skip all your job quests and have a bunch of skills you don't know about
2 good reasons not to skip imho
i am 55 BLM yes but my class is still thrm and at 55 along with BLM job
You'd be 55 BLM but your RDM even if you didn't have it unlocked would be unlocked and boosted to 70
Yeah it does that
Your class is now BLM
Once you go black you should never go back
RDM starts at 50, so you'd just be buying 20 levels
You gain THM exp but that’s a quirk of the system
That too
gotcha
so the thrm stuff just kinda levels up along with whatever BLM or RDM exp you get but it's pretty much to be ignored since no one would play without a soul crystral at this point
Yeah
Just like how your weapons will still be a Two-handed Thaumaturge's Arm
Even though you're Black Mage
yeah it is, the staff is THM BLM
You don’t need to think about THM anymore
It’s been upgraded to BLM
Consider yourself a BLM
You have graduated from being a THM.
uh huh
RDM does not have a base class.
i just though lvl 50 THM was a pre-requisite of RDM
It is not
ah i see
any level 50 class is a pre-req for rdm
And you shouldn’t be a 50 THM, from 30 onwards you should be a BLM
you just need one
i have been a BLM since level 30
That is good 
One thing, a friend TP'd out of azys la during the hw msq. Where are the teleporters to go to the next island?
But yes, for all expansion jobs the only requirement is that you have something at the level requirement
If they're doing the MSQ Azys Lla's map is going to have giant orange circles on it telling them where to go
They’re on the map, matter transmitters
If it helps any they're doing what's essentially a giant fucking circle
i'm just getting through ARR so I can start doing the BLM stuff above lvl 50 now
A clockwise circle
Care to share a screencap of it?
got the blm outfit and flare spell about 6 days into playing the game because of exp bonus
You'll need to be in Heavensward to get access to the job quests past 50 and get the infamous Ley Lines
noice
I'm 47 BLM just before my fight with Titan on Crystal myself 
Tell your friend to teleport back to Helix and look at his map
if there's no orange circle tell him to screenshot and then send that to us
We'll know where he needs to be from that
i'm just looking forward to the quests catching up with my level so the spells on my hotbar don't have to be replaced with lower level ones
one aspect of 2x ecp
That’s asking a bit much. Your friend should be able to find his way just fine using his map and his head.
Zoom in to see the labels.
Orange circle
is being overleved for ARR, mobs don't aggro you and your BLM spells often don't meet story dungeon or event requirements
She is at the first island, you can't reach that one walking, right?
Zoom in to see the map label text
It says matter transporter
Tell them to go to the second orange dot on that first island
Find the matter transmitters
And use the teleporter to get to the second island
And then they'll be able to pick up where they left off
Also tell them to not teleport out until they get Flying because otherwise they'll have to repeat the entire circuit
How do you change to a new grand company?
By going to another one
Go to the other grand company and ask to change
Transfer is free the first time then 10k gil for each change after
Twin Adder is Versaille, Maelstrom is R'ashaht, Immortal Flames is Swift
You must reach 2nd Lieutenant track in your original GC before you can unlock the option to switch.
That sounds like pain
sorry but:
You change with the personnel officer not the commander.
What about it?
classes does not list "BLM," jobs does

so isn't it correct to refer to BLM as the job
Cause blm is a job
Anything with a soul crystal is a job
Classes are the baby versions
Yes but the terms are interchangeable for most practical purposes
And class is more universal mmo/video game language.
Since they're literally the same thing it doesn't matter
Leveling my first alt job and curious if I’m doing it right. It’s a DRK so q time is okay. I play like 3-4 hours a night and have been trying to do all roulettes but it takes ~2 hours. Should I keep doing those or just grind highest level dungeon? Are there any roulettes like raid I shouldn’t do?
They've been called jobs since the beginning of Final Fantasy, so we just call em that for simplicity
When Do i get into the new expansion i am lvl 35 and getting very tired of this boring Realm Reborne MSQ
yet i was given this huge lecture earlier
Msq roulette you can skip if time is an issue
over the semantics
Your class is now BLM.
Heavensward is 50
It wasn’t semantics
After ALLLLL of arr's story quests
oh god
But is it more efficient use of time than to just grind dungeons?
I can make it worse
Not being a THM is quite important
The story is completely linear
There's no reason to ever refer to your class, if you aren't going to use it
BLM is an acquired job for THM
they are one and the same
Blm is the upgraded form and continuation of THM.
Depends on your luck with the msq roulette. Since praetorium is pretty much an hour of your time gone
Cool, you're a BLM tho
yeah, i get that
Good
tell me destroy my experience TELL ME
idk why you're still arguing this
So discussion over
It used to be way longer and they trimmed over 100 quests from it back in 5.3
yeah if the question was answered and the individual gets it let's move on
alright, well according to the square enix site THM is the class and BLM is the job. crystals = job.
yup
And would it be more or less exp than an hour of dungeons?
that is correct
so that was all a lot for nothing
yeah?
Probably less but it's usually enough for at least one level
Thats like the worst thing to do i was into the story till lvl 20 but when it always was the same thing i just skip everything and go on
If you include the essential quests required to complete ARR (Hard trials and Crystal Tower series) you come out to like, somewhere around 270 quests from 1 to final 50 quest
And you get literally no EXP
Thank you!
sure they're interchangeable but there was no need for me to be corrected either
whatever, gonna play the game
bbl
you clearly understand they are the same
i do
You had a misunderstanding about the system and it was cleared up.
mhm
my only misunderstanding was RDM isn't related to THM
i had 0 misunderstandings about how the BLM "job" plays into THM "class"

cool. then discussion over.
When does shadowbringers get good I’m on level 76 quests and it’s ok but nothing amazing
Do tanks do significantly less damage than DPS jobs?
About 75% of a dps
Subjective so no answer I give will be accurate
anyone know where i can find pictures of the different uldahn barding
cant seem to find any where it specifies which is which
If you’re the kind of player who’s interested in glamour, I’m betting that probably extends to your Chocobo companion as well, and you’d prefer to give them a stylish look that complements your own attire. As soon as you unlock your combat buddy you actually have the ability to change its appearance without requiring any […]
ctrl+f it
they should look the same but armored iirc?
that link doesnt have em clickable unfortunately
Where in Gridania is the grand company located?

Just northwest of the aetheryte
where my cursor is
is it safe to assume crested is the most armorey one?
literally just tp'd into gridania too lmao
Ah I see it. Thank you
yes
while i cannot give you specific pictures i do know for a fact that crested is the most busy / armored of the 3
If you want to find people to play with, which of the chats do you ask in? ^^
#recruitment-[DataCenter]
but you're undecided, so just talk to randos you meet in game
where can i get a lot of Glamour Prisms?
How do you customize the hotbar like this? My hotbars are either 10 x 1 horizontal or vertical. Can you like move individual hotbar 1x1??
aarh perfect, just creating an account for the first time, ill see if i cant get i to work. Thanks
Grand company
They're hiding unused slots
Oh
Character config > hotbar then decide how your hotbars are setup
I get it
Do you guys use the official 2fa app or a different one? Thinking of a different one cuz I don't wanna have a phone call
I use Google authenticator since they added support for that in the last patch and the old app feels like something from Windows xp
i use Bitwarden, it costs a bit for 2fa support, but i can afford 10$ a year
This is weird, my entire holster items disappeared.
did you hit save?
mmhh no
you do get a warning if you close it when not saving
Are side quest good for some short levels? Need 4 more levels to get my dk to be msq ready
No
No

- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.
do dungeon
Can you have duplicated names in a Datacenter?
Wait
There's a band on light that all have the same name
Then it is possible to people with the same name to be in an instance?
Yes
Oh my
Yes
I can't remember their names tho
do you need to complete and progress through low level levequests to get higher lvl ones?
No
Levequests of a certain level are in a certain location
okay cool, ty
You just have to unlock levequests at that location
At least for arr
After arr all levequests in an expansion are accepted in one place
ah yes that makes sense

i still haven't discovered how lucrative leves are or aren't
not totally clear on them vs dungeons
i seem to be awarded some sort of orb type item for completing them
They're excellent for crafters and gatherers, terrible for combat jobs
You seem to have a lot of questions, I'd recommend looking up the "your first day" series by weskalber on youtube
gotcha. i'd like to branch out into crafting and gathering but right now i'm a bit focused on getting to heavensward (on lvl 41 ARR missions)
Kat
That's my name
your first day? i'll give it a look, thanks
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's the Final Fantasy Prelude, and also used as the login screen/character creation music.
It plays the phase 2 music actually
yep
@warm snow this video series in fantastic, thanks
way better than the videos i found
Yep it's Freefall that plays

i dont know if this is the appropriate place to ask this, but does anybody know a good kagerou skin? i want to use ACT but not a big fan of it's look rn
Wait so
||Nidhogg|| has his own theme that plays and ||Dragonsong|| is just overlaid on the trial?
What?
is there any channel for in game help?
There's 3 themes for the ||Nidhogg|| fight
The three phases of Final Steps of Faith each have a different track.
Please try to avoid spoilers btw guys
Does that also apply to the || Minstrel's Ballad || trial?
Yes
Oh
Weskalber is an excellent source for new players to ff14 so give his content a watch
I've always just listened to || Dragonsong || while doing that trial, never noticed he had themes 
how long do server transfers take*?
yeah it's awesome. this is so well organized, exactly what i was looking for
hour or two at most
at least when I did it
where can i see my guild info / guild members of the guild i'm part of?
Which item has almost the same buying and selling prices?
Free Company window shortcut is semicolon ; by default
My friend needs help his free trial character seems to be deleted?
this is when he treis to enter the game
He was playing through steam
Thank you Lyon
- Is he certain he's using the same login as he was before? E.g. he didn't make a second account or anything
Best way to grind tomes of allegory?
- If he was using Steam to begin with he must stay with Steam, and if non-Steam he must stay with non-Steam.
Pretty sure he is using same account.
Ensure the right launcher is being used.
he has only steam launcher downloaded
and his char doesn't appear on list outside of game either
Is it the Steam free trial launcher and not the full game launcher?
let me ask
is there a point to keeping the lower versions of the gatherer spells or should i just keep the newer ones?
GP efficiency
it is free trial launcher
oh yeah
?
it's Steam.
so?
you can't play trough steam
It should be the free trial launcher downloaded from Steam.
yeah, you can open the ffxivboot64.exe without going trough steam
he says he is using the free trial launcher
trough steam or not?
It is
The free trial launcher downloaded from Steam?
he should NOT use the steam version
that is what he started on though
yeah, but he probably registered the free trial someplace not-steam
tell him to open the game directly at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY XIV Online\boot\ffxivboot64.exe
no
you don't get it
he was able to pla
play
normally
from steam
as free trial
he had a lvl57 warrior
Wait hold up
He does not have a Steam free trial account.
!faq steam
- Steam launcher integration update
- Steam and windows expansions are not interchangeable, buy the expansions for your base platform
- Use SteamEdit to remove -issteam argument to play with your windows subscription via steam
- You do not need to uninstall ffxiv if you have either the steam or windows version when you want to swap.
as you can see the link above
So he did not register his free trial account through Steam, and therefore must use the non-Steam launcher or edit the launcher app with SteamEdit.
no, only complete edition and/or base
Only the base game gives 30days sub time.
I dont know why it doesnt say steam now
I know
he used to play through steam
all this time
you could play trough steam until 03/08/2019 on the non-steam account
if i did not, how could i play about 92 hours
i am the man btw hello
so the account was recently created?
on april 1
can i somewhere check my play time?
how?
then you probably launched it not-trough-steam
Because it says so on mogstation.
regardless of the circumstance it is not a steam free trial
or maby steam wasn't detected by the launcher when you created it
i didn't even download off steam
^^
Exactly
we could argue on what did or what didn't happen but the bottom line is that it is not a steam free trial account
and yeah
then there you go.
okay that does it
wait wat
^

okay okay
If you didn't download it off steam then you can't play it on steam.
so did you or did you not download it off steam then
but i did for a 100 hours
wait no i'm contradicting myself
i downloaded and created the acc on steam
it doesn't matter what you did it's still not a steam free trial account
Hey guys, i know damage meters are illegal.
So can anyone PM me letting me know how a client looks like and letting me know how to install it so i will never do it by mistake?
wait, also noticing you said "characters were deleted", that must mean it is the wrong account one is looking at
The only time you're actually going to get in trouble using one is if you use it as a basis to shit-talk people in-game
wait it got to patching now
I have a question. I want to be an AST and I was reading about classes etc. Is there a specific class I HAVE to start to become an AST, or can I just switch to it once I unlock it?
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.
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.
there's no starting class for ast
Link and install/use guide right there for ya
the second one
@dreamy fjord
switch to unlock
i see
You have to get to heavensward to unlock ast
just need to get to ishgard in heavensward and beat ARR and post-ARR
No specific class requirements
All expansion jobs just require you to have a class/job at their required level
You can be anything and switch to anything
So once you beat that and unlock it, you don't have to do anything special to just switch to it?
Hw jobs are different
Shush
Since you need to actually get to hw
The only difference is reaching Ishgard :p
that's a big difference.
Once you get to the hw city you can unlock the job and swap freely
Point still stands that you don't have to be a specific job/class to switch
@warm snow do you know around how long that could take?
About the length of a standard jrpg I'm afraid
Should probably play Conjurer/white mage to get used to healing in ff14
Conjurer is also recommended by the game developers for new players
ah okay, yeah I was reading that. So just go white mage and eventually unlock it?
Kinda
astro plays a lot like conjurer / white mage until above 50 so skills should translate over very well
You have to find the quest in ishgard to go unlock it
astrologian is story locked so whatever class works
Ty Pettter
Also ast starts at 30 so you'll have to level it to 50 to continue the main story
going white mage was just a suggestion if you want to learn healing prior to getting astro
which i do recommend
Yeah I was gonna go white mage to try that out. I'll read up on specifically unlocking AST then, thanks!
AST only requires you to be Lv 50 on a combat class/job and reach the point where you can enter Ishgard (read: the first quest of Heavensward)
Also
All healers share gear
So you get even more benefit out of starting CNJ/WHM since you won't have any problems gearing your AST as you level it to where you can do HW MSQ
Only difference is, obviously, the AST weapon
ok allow me to say, i am the dumbest person on earth because the normal nick i use everywhere was for a non steam acc and so i used a different nick for steam acc which my dumb brain forgot about
thanks anyway
is there a site for addons?
depends, for act or xivlauncher?
a list of addons for xivlauncher can be found here https://github.com/goatcorp/DalamudPlugins/
but they are all optionally installed with the ingame command
Make sure you read TOS, plugin/act only use for personal purpose
if caught, it is bannable
no
yes
Yes
you already got starter edition
Oh if that's the case then no.
You only get the 30days once, when registering the base game.
yeah only starter gives sub, expansion doesn't 
Anyone on ps5 please need help
