They also sell a specific triple triad card for that costs 1 of each weapon totem
It was a 2019 post
Were is this mount from? I need it! 
You get it by getting all of the shb ex mounts
The EX mounts are gwibers/dragons for shb
Newer Player here- any tips on level 50 dungeons? I watch guides before first timing them, but have definitely messed up a few mechanics on some, leading to a wipe. people have for the most part been understanding. Is it worth finding a group to first time with to avoid this?
which mounts do you need to unlock the meta mount for shb?
All shadowbringers extremes
a wipe isn't the end of the world, just learn from it
you probably saw Gabriel alpha Mk. II, which is from shb relic content
ugh I only have the diamond gwiber, close to emerald.. then have never done hades
and wol.. halfway?
Honestly just trial and error, most of the time someone in your party already knows the mechanic and can tell you
That’s how I got them
other than SOS, the others are fairly ez; especially with i530 and echo ..
Ah shit, seems like a lot of grind! But the mounts is pretty dope!
so go get them gwibers
the level 50 dungeons are all pretty forgiving at 130 ilvl that lots of players will have, I wouldn't be too concerned about it
Can discard once you can use one of the books
yeah it's just the grind I'm not looking forward to
ilvl 130 is basically all ironworks gear
I did just get a black chocobo. Whats the difference from the standard one?
I am about to try "The Lost City of Amdapor" the guide for it looks a little more complex than something like Pharos Sirius
level 130 is ironworks gear or basically anyone synced from higher levels
@little swift ah thanks thats good ti know
with i130, you most likely won't see over half the mechs in those dungeon guides
Yea so amdapor all you gota know is the mini boss, has a marked for death mechanic where you got step on the glowing stone when he gives you the debuff to remove it @cinder hearth
And then there’s the thing where you kill the stone heads on the platforms to open the doors
Anyone know how many of the field notes in Bozja require clearing Duels?
@trail elk I think that's Qarn 😛
none, technically
the duels have significantly better drop rates, but they all come from standard ces/fates as well
Ahh, alright
if you preorder endwalker now you'd get nothing but the preorder bonus until it releases, at which time you'd unlock sb/shb/ew
I think that’s the one where you have to manage agro by killing a certain mob
assuming you have the starter edition, because you need that to be able to add ew to begin with
You skip doors these days
Oh ok the final boss is simple
@trail elk In general though I guess most people have been fairly positive with newer players when I've made small mistakes, except for a few people who seem like they're on short tempers...
When you see diablos do the instakill move
Open the marked doors that’s are opposite to each other
And you’ll get sucked into them
To avoid damage
That’s basically the main mechanic with him
Well really high damage
If you don’t have mitigation
I forgot if paladin has hallowed at that point or not
Just reprisal
Yea you can survive it but most of the time people know what to do
Because they have done it before
The first time I did it we got wiped too
And someone told me how it works after
@trail elk thanks 🙂
Besides that for the dungeon itself if you see the magic pillars always destroy them first
What is the race to pick to be as big as ZENOS in DRK
?
Garleans are not playable, so… none, really?
Who
Zenos is an absolute unit
i mean roegdyn is big tho
Whose zeno
SB villian
don’t worry about him for now
what are all of the times you can use cpose?
can Marauder become a red mage? i dont quite understand how it works
once you hit level 50 on ANY class and own stormblood you can start red mage
ok thank you for the answers
Each job is completely separate
there is also sleeping
are levequests the same at each level between each vender
but it seems like that's all i know
should i do all unlock quests after finishing an expansion or should I wait until endgame to do them? there are so many and it's overwhelming
I'm just trying to pick either Hrothgar or roegadyn to look like ZENOS in DRK
Are there any sites with builds and stuff? I'm pretty new and I know there's ton's of YT vids but I really don't like skipping through vids all the time I rather have a website that writes out builds and rotations if possible
#glamour-discussion if anyone can help
There's not really "builds" in ff14
There's pretty much one best set of gear for each job
And you only need to worry about that at endgame
since you can be every class on one toon
classes are made to be easy to understand and gear, hard to master
Hi, is the 3.x questline about the same length as the 2.x one?
Like between HW and SB
Pretty much
not the same length thankfully
Okay, that's better 😄
40 quests vs the 80 from 2.x
In terms of length they felt about the same

can i ask glamour id here ?
yeah it may end up being around the same time but there's a lot more happening
Okay, well if it's interesting i don't mind (: Thank you!
sure, here or #glamour-discussion
How do I find the entrance?
i asked there but didn't get the answer
it’s above you
Yes for factual information, but for subjective "does this make my butt look big" etc. #glamour-discussion is probably better

ok.
All answers come with a side serving of homemade snark
i just wanted to know these pants
do Fates trigger by time or you being in the area ?
what did the path to ishgard look like before heavensward?
Depends on the fate
The same
same
was there the gatekeep person there?
Big bridge you weren't allowed cross
Yeah
Except he'd essentially tell you to fuck off
damn
All up on the mountain?
like he said
is there a maint today?
There was
done
We're patch 5.57 now
does that introduce anything new
No
i can get another picture if no one find it
Just removes limitations on savage raids and fixes some bugs
ah nice thank ya
it just quality of life


So much new stuff opens up when you finish each main quest.. it's so overwhelming
If no one answers no one knows
focus in story first and unlock them one by one
follow a website that gives what quest to unlock stuff
But won't I miss story stuff? Like I had to go complete BCoB in ARR before HW for instance. For some dialogue or some such.
it's one changed line out of like a 200k page story book
You really didn't have to beat the coils
lots of dialogue changes depending on your progress in lots of areas
Completely optional
Oh I see, well someone suggested I do (not on this discord) so I did it unsynced pf anyway.
Only mandatory side content between any expansion is the crystal tower since its story is part of shadowbringers
bcob is 100% optional and what it adds to arr story isn’t super necessary
Either way, I did all the postgame ARR stuff but it will take me a week to do all the postgame HW stuff 🤣
Just looked at my friends list and someone is showing up as “(Unable to Retrieve)” - what does that mean?
^ at the very least it’ll give you more things in roulette :p
dont rush enjoy the game and the story
they transferred to a different DC, or haven’t logged in for a long time

couldn't find the pants life good 
Huh. pushes glasses up Time to try and identify the missing culprit
can trial roulette put me in high-end trials?
https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/glamour/32601/wednesday-workout they're listed on the page you got the photos from 
nope
only normals and hards
I hear a lot of people saying that crafting leve turn-ins is a decent way of making a bit of extra gil, but are there any resources that say what leves are the most popular/farmed by players?
What stats should I allocate to my gunblade relic?
Crit det sks
coffee biscuit leve in the crystarium
lv 78 CUl level quest; makes you about 18k per leve :3
how do i see my achievements
Can you get there w/o flying? I cant seem to find the right path.
possibly not, but considering you're at lvl 57~ msq you should be able to get flying
in that zone
iirc there’s a cave that lets you go up to the top
but yeah you should be able to get flying by then anyways
thanks
I did get some kind of flying. Got a black chocobo and a new travel currency (aethernet).
is it possible to avoid rouletting into certain duties by equipping gear that's below the item level restriction of the duty
thats how ilvl cheesing works
cheesing?
Yes
Higher level duties still have the item level requirement
If the game reads yours as insufficient it will exclude those raids
Hence the cheesing
from what I can see basically the whole high area around that "crater" and where it trails off towards falcon's nest is locked behind flying
collect the aether currents in the zone, do the
that give you aether currents and any mount will be able to fly up there
its not the same pants
is there a way to turn off specifically FATE music? i like the normal battle music especially after first entering coerthas and noticing it changes based on area
but im really growing tired of the FATE music
thats why i asked here
it is, the boots are confusing
Hey, so I've got some basic questions about playing a healer. Where'd be the best place for that - the Beginner Lounge, here, or the Healer Lounge?
!itemglam pacifist's boots
da heck
Thanks alot for info! 🙂

does anyone know how to get past those level v wind sprites for the bozja quest "picking up the trail"?
Wait for it to not be windy
thank you vis
they only spawn during windy weather, iirc
if it's very basic questions then here's fine, if it's more open ended and a discussion topic then #beginner-lounge or #healer-lounge , though the latter is probably better for intermediate/advanced questions (though i dont actually know what goes on there)
oh i see thanks!
how do i know the weather in bozja?
the same way you know the weather outside, from the weather icon on your minimap
should be a weather npc at the camp too
gotcha thanks for the help!
It's less questions about mechanics and more questions about, like... my mindset, or what I should be paying attention to, or stuff like that.
you can probably ask anywhere tbh, people here are really helpful
so long as you dont go where it obviously doesnt belong
or post the same question in 3 channels at the same time
what is Achievement Certificate
as in, don't do that*
Has anyone ever had an issue with Direct X 11 causing issues when running FFXIV? Every other day it seems I get booted from the game...
and how to get one
Yeah, just figured it'd make sense to do it in the right place because I can get pretty long-winded sometimes.
you get them automatically for getting more achievement points
reached 2935 and didn't get one
I like making sure people have the context to understand where I'm coming from, but that means I tend to go into more detail than is necessary.
maybe you need to talk to jonathas in gridania to exchange them, near apkallu falls
but i thought they're automatic
I think you get them from him, yeah
Hello in there I've got a basic question related to story dungeons, is there any place I could ask for help to succeed them cause it takes a long while to find a full party.
Ex : my gf and I have been queueing for the dungeon called 'Tree of Judgment' and haven't found a single party for 2full days..?
you mean the striking tree?
the striking tree (hard)? it's in the trial roulette so it should pop pretty regularly, like a 15-20min dps queue
at normal EU times
you definitely mean striking tree hard and not extreme, right?
@cunning loom got the game in French but we gotta fight rammuh AFAIK
Yes in hard mode
Wdym in trial roulette?
Make sure you enable all languages in your duty finder settings
Pretty sure it is enabled I've met some German dudes already
germans are just commonplace. im pretty sure i have mine set to english only and still meet a bunch
in the first duty finder tab you got roulettes, like leveling roulette or msq roulettes, there's a trial roulette too where players queue for a daily bonus and get matched with other players looking to complete specific duties for story or other reasons, like you
resulting in almost no "dead content"
Or you can open a pf for that specific duty
well yeah you just queue for it, and you'll get matched with all the players queueing for their daily bonus on a random trial
😅 wow ? really? how to go back to my world? I stuck xD
Ques don't take that long
yeah just sit and wait, the number will reduce
alright
or right click your character and there should be an option to log in to another server i think? its a new feature that got added today
Nice outfit I dont even know where to get your outfit
Oj
you log into a random world visit or something
How can I thank u for that those tips bois?
from market xD
For the newest stage of the relic, how many things per run do you get from doing Alexander/Omega/Eden?
And do Alexander/Omega have to be synced
How much was the outfit
1 per fight, and yes they do
1 and yes
I dont remember around 50k I guess
@green grail how can I thank u for that tip bro
I'm just going to do the skirmishes then
it's called uraeus coat, its pretty common/cheap
I only can use cheap one
Nevermind I dont even have 50k lmao
xD lol
By learning to play the MB
currently running castrum over and over is lucrative
What ?
when i was farming for the lyon field note i made around 26 mil
Level crafters/gatherers (which will cost a good bit), then learn which items you can sell for high prices on the market board.
It's a time and gil investment on the front end, but can pay off well in the end.
So I have to be a disciple of the land
And Disciples of the Hand, yes.
Have you done Bozja yet?
Nope
It honestly sounds like he's a very new player though?
I have been focusing on leveling up
If you just started, then the MSQ will take you there at level 15.
huh, i swore i saw him in somehwere in the server a while back
i must be thinking of someone else
I think today
there's no good answer to "how to make money" cause there's no good ""pve"" way of getting money, it's all marketboard, and if everyone gathers/crafts and sells the same thing then it won't be as lucrative anymore
The MSQ alone will net you 2-3M by the time you hit the end of 5.55
Whats 5.55
What I did was when I'd run Castrum Lacus Lanore, I'd sell my fragments and use the coins I kept getting to by augments which go for like a mil a piece
The current patch
The final story patch of the MSQ so far.
Ok
5.56 is the current patch as of this morning, but 5.55 was the final story patch.
5.57
Oh is it .57? my bad.
I have a really long way to go
5.56 was just skipped like 5.51
Yes. It's a long game.
you got plenty of time
Why its fun at the same time
There's no rush though.
Yeah, Endwalker is not for another 5-6 months.
You'll get to the end when you get to it, and can worry about grinding gil and other stuff after that.
having a long way to go and having fun is what FFXIV is all about
The tokens you use to send your npc on ventures, do they replinish on their own?
No, you can purchase more from your Grand Company vendor though.
The fun will truly begin at level 50 when I get the flashy skills of my job
Aha, Thanks Aura
so the patch notes said tower is being added to the roulette, does that mean its losing its once a week restriction for drops?
Not until they say so.
okay, thanks
It should be in 5.58, which will be between next month and august
Just as they said for E9-12S in the patch notes this time, they'll have a specific bit in the patch notes when they remove the weekly restrictions from Tower as well.
lol
i did and understandable
I was about to respond.
now ya know so we got there in the end
Does anyone know if Cloud Deck Ex has echo yet?
Would that have been in the patch notes?
it would have been in the patch notes
at lvl 80, is it useful to keep any low level materia? Or should I sell every materia I-VI ?
https://i.imgur.com/zW2nmVV.jpeg
Can I claim something from these achivments?
titles get claimed automatically
yeah you can hover over it
Maybe I have lots of unclaimed achivments 😄
in other tabs you can filter them by completed + wioth rewards
When can I fight behemoth

So not story locked to fight behemoth
I mean, it kind of is
Because you have to finish the level 50 MSQ "The Ultimate Weapon" before you can unlock the Crystal Tower raid.
You can’t do crystal tower without beating 2.0
Is behemoth difficult
is there a quick way to check if i already have used a certain orchestrion roll?
ideally before buying it
not really
You can go into your Orchestrion List and search for the song.
It’s a mid boss of the raid
open your orchestrion log and check
Ok
oooh thanks
this is a bit weird. i know for a fact ive used like two or three different rolls
nevermind im dumb
it only shows the selected tab
Hi guys. I'm having trouble doing the loft furniture glitch. Once I float floor items to the appropriate height (am aware of minimum height requirements) and then click on it to rotate, it won't let me. The furniture always turns purple instead of the orange. It doesn't stay in place, and the game immediately moves it. I have no idea if i'm somehow doing it wrong or if it's been patched. Any ideas? (I'm on console)
Yeah, different tabs for different sources.
The tab all the way on the right is the search function.
In case that wasn't immediately obvious.
Also it might say you’ve already used it, if you attempt to buy it again
Not for Orchestrion scrolls.
Those aren't single-use capped like some minions are.
Or rather, they don't lock you from obtaining the same one again if you've used it.
speaking of minions
are there more than these that i can buy from a vendor during FT?
Yes
The gold saucer has some
for gil, i should say
There are a few you can get from your Grand Company, and a couple you can get with poetics in Mor Dhona.
Oh, for gil?
Uh
I don't think there are any gil ones.
yeah im trying hard to stay below that 300k cap
There’s a couple of vendors that only appear after Certain FATEs are complete
Beast tribes
https://ffxivcollect.com/minions?q[sources_type_id_eq]=12 you can basically go down this list for stuff up to patch 3.5
ik beast tribes will help a lot once i reach rank 4 but thats a ways off
thanks, that should help
I think my brain just isn't firing right this morning...but once I upgrade all of my gear to 530...then Tomestones of Revelation have no further use right?
correct
thanks, I just got so in the habit of maxing them out every week that now with the cap at 900...I thought I'd missed something
easier to gear other jobs
so you can unsub till 6.0
So is there higher level gear coming or is 530 basically it until Endwalker?
That's it
oh thank goodness
Do at least get 2k revelation before endwalker so you can convert them to poetics in endwalker
Like 1k extra poetics
More poetics for whatever you want them for, like Anima and all
And the lv80 stuff will be buyable with poetics
ooooh
It's the tome cycling all over again....allegory can be converted to poetics at a 4:1 ratio, revelation goes to poetics at a 2:1 ratio
So fully capped tomes at endwalker is another 1500 poetics
they will also be purchased at 530 instead of needing the augmenting item
thank you I didn't realize that was going to be happening
You'll be buying augmented Cryptlurker gear with poetics come 6.0
As a blm whats my most important job
running the Yorha stuff every week has been driving me nuts....
thanks for the help again have a great day
Doing damage
Doing damage and not dying
Yes I do that in every dungeon but my attacks are kinda slow
Yes the astral umbral stuff are important
I realised if I screw that stuff up the fight gets longer
Yes cause then you're not really dealing that much damage
Exactly
my sam gcd at i521 is 2.43
is this bad
No
It's probably just me being stupid but blm got so complicated once i got fire/blizzard 4 and enochian x.x
but bis is like 2.14 and below
Is that counting shifu
lemme check
I'm at 2.44 and I'm doing fine with a 2 gcd filler loop
Shifu cuts it down to 2.12
So
Yeah it's counting shifu
how do i know
even on monk?
i c
<2 second gcds
Normal jobs like tanks or whatever can't get that low...not without having like 5k speed
do i bother putting sks or just crit/dh on sam
what's filler loop
The number of gcds you do before using Hagakure
To realign your rotation
By base, Samurai rotation isn't a perfect 60s loop
So it needs a filler loop
i dont use hagakure :/
well you want to now
why tho
Hagakuere is important
Otherwise you're not gonna be able to use Tsumbae on Cooldown
Which is a major dps lost
And you'll be refreshing dot too early
And unsync yourself from.raid buffs
As I just said
Samurai rotation by base isn't a perfect 60s loop
Which is why the filler is needed
To correct it
So you can reapply the dot and use Tsumbae on Cooldown
And stay in raid buffs
ya im not big brain enough to figure out the fillers
balance bis is raid set
oh fuck
i follow the wiskerber doods rotation
idk anything about balance
Weskalber does levelling rotations
ya that
So does the decisive dwarf weekly quests end? Do you get anything worth doing them for?
it ends
Nier weeklies?
worth? i wish
you get orchestrions i think
6 weeks then it ends
6 weeks of quests, and it just wraps up the story
totally optional
u get dissapointment and scroll
Ahh damn that sucks 😂
and a title
I'm trying to purchase some Raw Malachite, im told i can buy it from the material supplier in player housing but when i talk to them none of the goldsmith mats like Raw Malachite are there. Halp!
Steps of thal (10.5, 13.1) the NPC is Aistan
im on the msq on rough seas probably 5.4
how far is the pagalthan dungeon
no spoilers
End of 5.5, not in 5.55
literally in the goldsmiths guild 😅 thanks so much for the help.
I have a question concerning ACT setup any hotshot can DM me?
like how many quests
If you're in 5.4 then 5.5 isn't that far. It's about 10 quests per patch.
ohh
so i unlock expert roulette after reaching end of 5.5?
pag the last dungeon in the game rn?
Yes
On Rough Seas is the 3rd to last quest in 5.4
So you've got 2 quests after that, plus 5 more in 5.5
i c
Anyone know if ACT works after the update?
every update breaks it so probably not
Yup, not working lol
my sam has 2.11 gcd after shifu
balance has 2.00 2.07 and 2.14 bis
which do i aim for
2.07?
:/
how do i know which filler they're using
As I said 3 times
Your rotation isn't a perfect 60s loop
It's too short
You won't be able to use Tsumbae on Cooldown
Which is a major dps lost
And you'll unsync yourself from Raid buffs over the fight
The filler loops corrects it
It's your rotation
Not using Tsumbae on Cooldown is massive
You'll lose several uses in fights
dammit man ive to learn another sam rotation
where do i get glamour dispellers from again
It's just the case of slotting in a small loop
Like a hagaza into yuki before hagakure
ugh off to balance i go smh
@gusty island
i just get from GC
thanks
it doesn't look like I get extra scrips for maxing out weekly Custom Deliveries, just the 600 min - this is correct?
Is a month's sub right now worth it, if all i have to do is to get a DPS class from 70 to 80 and grab the last tomestone gear for it in prep for the next expansion? As in, will i be able to do all this in that time?
There is it just doesn't use poetics
oh ok
But either way it's up to you since it's your money
You have plenty of time if you're only doing the one dps
i should get rid off merciful eyes from my hotbar right
i use hissatsu seigan for ogcds but merciful heal is pitiful at best
It's saved my life more that once 
Merciful isn't significant enough to warrant using
Its also possible to do fillers without hagakure but that uses kenki rather than gaining you kenki
Yeah the enpi filler thing
ill just do the yuki-hagakure filler
enlighten me, do hunt trains have anything to do with the hunt board
im starting to suspect... no

hunt trains hunt A marks
which you dont need to check hunt board to get rewards from
okay... what does an A mark look like
A and S ranks have no bills
so in a way, ye, not much to do with the hunt board ig
A ranks are those random high level mobs in the zone that have a red aggro mark
S ranks are mobs that will always be visible regardless where you are in the zone, and will give you a notification upon entering the zone
but don't you need to do the quest to trade the rewards?
I did all my blue quests so never tried to trade it without doing the quest
im not exactly.. needing exp see
@verbal yacht @
like nuts, centurio,allied seals
oh yeah.. one of the purpose is to leveling.
while waiting for dungeon

see im looking at this board and absolutely nothing anywhere indicates to me a rank of any kind and im like.. orz
i mean, if you are in a train, leaving it for a dungeon feels like a loss
i guess thers 5 stars for wat its worth
Thats not any rank
hunt train is different, they don't give exp afaik
ye that’s not a mark
yes, i figured
The hunt board has bills for regular mobs, and the elite marks are B ranks
If I start as a Conjurer, can I still unlock and play a thaumaturge?
yeah you can be every class with 1 character
right but its not like im gonna go hunt regular mobs, or atleast not in the forseeable future
i guess i'll just fiind meself a train later today
some things just best learned in practice i guess 
How do I report to western thanalan lol
Open the journal and press initiate on the leve
So whats the best time to start a second job? Like i know it doesnt matter and you can start one whenever you want, but what would y’all recommend?
After the first one reaches 80? When you finish all MSQ?
Something else
i just lvled a second job concurrently because i had excess exp
I started when I was massively over the msq level due to road to 70
^ right..
so this is going to sound like a dumb question but are there any ways to help find what sells on your marketboard? ive gotten all my crafters to level 80 and now im not sure how to start making money
someone told me I should level a meele dps, caster ,healer and a tank to max level
if I level up conjurer to max, does that count towards scholar and summoner both
one being a caster and the other healer
If you level a Physical DPS, a Magical DPS, a Tank, and a Healer, you unlock a bit of extra story
If you level Arcanist to max level, SCH and SMN will both be maxed
If you level SCH or SMN, it will also count towards the other. But you'll still have to do the job quests.
Yes.
for that job yeah
even for crafters and gatherers
are there any mounts i can solo farm as a lvl 80 summoner? aside from beast tribe ones
?
Level 50 ponies
From the 50 EX trials
learning the job is the hard part, especially smn and sch
its like a puzzle
If you enjoy crafting, sure
level them as convenient for you ¯_(ツ)_/¯
that way I can make everything myself
eh
i'm an omnicrafter
and its cheaper now to by the stuff than make it yourself lol
it's always cheaper to do it yourself lol
well yeah
in terms of gil
crystal DC disagrees with this
relics are endgame content
they aren't even that good
just glam
anima relics are a bit better
since its mostly poetics
but having a lvl 80 speeds up the process
level 80 crafters yea
i didn't need a crafter for them the items can be bought in the GC
Hud Question: I have a layout in 2 that I want to copy over to 1 on the same charcter... is that possible?
like the kingcake
like it raandomly asked me to make a dagger and embed it with materia
and i realized
i cant even mend materia
isnt all the relic quests similar in their structure
Each one is different
zodiac relics are awful,
relics are end game weapon for each expansion
and each relic has their own storyline
yeah the lvl 60 ones are a lot easier
are they rare fates or..
some are
book step is a nightmare and a half
let alone the cost of materia and other annoying af steps
can you dye weapons?
i just want a glowing weapon bruh
!faq dye
ah yeh, that's anima
the starting quest is in iddlshire
There’s the crystal sand step later that’s pretty fast with a crafter/gatherer but it’s not needed
i did prae 5 times for 1 single step
you'll be doing prae a lot anyways for the exp
this is what im saying, relics are current endgame content
bc they take forever and a half
anima is extremely easy
it's meant to be equivalent to the time it takes to do savage raid content
its just stocking up on tomes
are the things the quests ask for
b/c it gives you a bis wep at the end of the expac
untradeable?
yep
if you just want any glow weapon, just check out marketboard
we say "glam is the true endgame" for a reason
like i dont plan on maxing out the relic
but if you want to do that specific, gotta do the relic
I think that's the final step 🤔
you have to do stages in order
cronus lux that is
the lux is the final step
lux is final
ok what about this relic
glowy weapons u can also get from mb
does anyone know if the adventure squad is one of those features that is an ARR dead end? (ie, a feature that will no longer be worked upon)
!iglam sharpened guillotine of the tyrant
theres a variation for 600 poetics
and another for 1k wolf mark
is this a final step too
4th step
2nd to last step
wtf is it called
2nd step
First few stepd
!iglam awakened deathbringer
so awoken is like the first step
2nd
so that shouldnt take too long right?
1st glowy yes
Awoken is the original tome gear but with a glow
nope
for anima about... 5-7 hours?
gotta fate grind tho :)
Does glam stay even tho when i change my set?
Its the second form you get
may rngesus bless u
You have to reapply the glam
welcome to relics
You glamour the specific item not slot
anima weapon you just run brayflox hard 30ish times unsync
you said anima were on the easier side
they are
Yes
;-;
They are
now you see
Anima stage 1 doesn't take 7 hours
1 stage
nowhere near 7 hours
Not stage 1
Its rng, but its pretty quick and easy
Referring to the sands step probably
are you lvl 80 @trail elk
no I stop leveling classes at lvl 60
why
cause im at HW
I was refering to if you if you had to do it without being able to unsync
it still wouldnt
I wouldn't even think about doing relics until at level cap
unless youre tryna dps queue at like 4 am
that 7 hours turns to like 2 tops at level 80 bc you can unsync the content
no?
you go in solo
i can do lvl 60 dungeons solo on my MCH
pull the entire dungeon 1 shot it move on
the quest with the chimera in it
You can solo most of the relic grind at 80
is part of a relic quest
theres no way stage 1 the dungeon stage should take more than like 2 hours (if that)
yeah i've unsynced it too, sucks you need to have the weapon on tho
but it's a trial you still need to queue with it in duty finder
trials can be unsynced, only high end duties can't be unsynced
you can go into trials solo?
yep
you can go into basically anything solo
Anything from the current expansion can't be unsynced
except endgame stuff
what about stormblood
yes
Stormblood isn't the current expansion
ultimates can;t be unsynced but everything else is free game in SB
stormblood relics arent worth it
So yes, you can unsync that content, excluding the 2 Ultimates
arent*
how long does an SB relic take if you haven't started eureka?
Too long
^
i'll do it one day
how can i check my current payment method?
theres not a single stormblood relicworth the time
Problem with SB relic is that you can't passively work on it
can you go into alliance raids solo too?
there is no addons right but u can use reshade or gshade is there any particular preset you recommend? it doesnt matter if it lowers my fps
i only see update/register and unregister options?
Yes
with 1 person per party yes
so 3 people can unsync it
crazy
Yeah
Whether mechanics will stop you or not is another matter
pls respond
Ie labrythin
Be patient
i think squnix is very iffy on gshade no?
Expresso Glow gameplay shader
my highest class rn is lvl 70
Gshade is fine
which is my dragoon
alright ty
im guessing the thing that makes the difference in unsynced content are the skills you get at 70+
its the gear
is gshade just on 100% or only gpose
510 gear at lvl 80 is crazy strong
Always on
i have 135K hp as a machinist
Though you can toggle it
you get 510 gear by farming raids im guessing
172k as tank
or the marketboard
costs like 500k for a full set these days?
roughly
wht ilvl are the poetic tombs
depends on dc/world
in shb
cryptlurkers?
poectics aren't in ShB
There are no poetic gear in ShB yet
you'd need to farm a new type of poetic
its the revelations
capped weekly
cap got doubled this patch though
400-->900 woo
theres no allagan tomes in shb?
Can mining and selling earn a fair amount of gil? or should i be looking into another profession for gil?
correct
No poetics
No thats wrong
But allegory and revelation
There are currently 2 tomestones in Shb
Its kinda shit atm tbh
you'd need to beat a lot of content to access it
You can get better gear quicker
510 works perfectly fine for everything non current savage
If you're not actually in ShB, the only level 80 gear you can get is crafted
hell you can even upgrade it to 520 with allegory
people are probably over pricing the hell out of the gear in mb im guessing
Which is from the MB
nope
Actually gear is dirt cheap
It's price is cheap
its quite cheap compared to what it used to be
i saw a weapon go for 10 mil the day it came out back in 5.4
yall out here talking in mils when i havent even broken 500k
yep
Then don't worry about the gear
you CAN get gear from raids but its a lot slower
i guess relics can wait then
but as we said, we are gatekeeping relics because they are so long
they are the big grind in this game
They're also much easier at cap
my friend is doing every single one of them
every class?
crafters have relics?
yet
Yes, they were added in ShB
craft like 300 expert recipes right?
Same thing
alright anywho which crafters/gatherers should i start off leveling to make my life easier
You should level them all in groups
also crafting is... time consuming as well
so omni crafter/gatherer should take how long? A year?
but you may like it more than i did
Lol no
took me about 2 months and 4 million gil cause i took breaks
You can do it in like 2 weeks if you dedicate enough time to it
also i was stupid and bought leve items to speed up the process
i gained profit from levleing my crafters to 80 lol
and my road to lvl 70 buff would apply to crafters aswell?
i gainde 4 casual clothes coffer
right?
Yes
yep, should be a masssive help
alright tyvm
!faq maps
!faq treasuremaps
Treasure Maps are a party activity where players are required to find the location in the overworld and clear waves of mobs in order to reap the rewards. Maps can be gathered once per 18 hours by a gatherer of the appropriate level and are unique, thus only one map can be held at a time.
Deciphering the map.
In order to actually use the timeworn map you've acquired, you must first complete the quest Treasures and Tribulations which will allow you to convert the timeworn map into a usable map.
What maps do people usually gather?
Timeworn Dragonskin Map (Level 60, Heavensward)
Timeworn Gazelleskin Map (Level 70, Stormblood)
Timeworn Zonureskin Map (Level 80, Shadowbringers)
Map Dungeons
Each of the three treasure maps mentioned have a 50% chance to create a portal which will take the party to a special dungeon full of treasure and riches, but only if you pass the game of chance.
You don't need to level crafters to make money off that
oh yea i remember unlocking those
Just sell the calfskin material
You either buy them off the MB or gather them
But only the level 80 map has the calfskin
can u play monk with bad ping
How bad?
so what makes calfskin so expensive compared to other mats from treasure hunts
Its the hot new item
Makes popular glamour clothes
connection:poor
somewhat rare, glam is fire
so ive no clue
ah okay
i didn't know until yesterday you could buy mounts of mb
cause all of the ones ive seen are untradeable
yeah the MB is pretty good
You can only buy some of them
btw the 3 glowing wolf mounts I got using those moogle tomes, were they like some limited time mounts?
No
They normally come from the EX stormblood trials
Get em all, and you get another special mount
how many are there
7
the ponies give you kirin right?
