Upgrading to a job does not reset levels.
also want to note that going from class to job for retainers wont reset levels
its only switch from a class to another class or from a job to another class/job that would
You can also switch from any of the base classes to one of the expansion jobs
Ahh, ok. Good to know. Thanks guys.
also without resetting progress
so I have to turn in 3 of the 510 weapons to get a 520 wep?
Uh...I need to unlock the extreme version for Ramuh, but apparently I needed to talk to Haurchefant to get the quest line. Problem is...he's now...well you know. Is it now impossible for me, or am I missing a step here?
@gleaming moon what 520 weapon
the augumented crafted weapon
Npcs that gives quests never go away. They'll always be there regardless what happens
if its HQ then it should be a 1:1 conversion for the aug
How does that work? Where can I find him then? xD

ramuh ex starts at gridania iirc
Just go to the location the quest marked
oohh i see i didnt click the HQ one
This one is listed as "Coerthas Central Highlands (X:26, Y:17)" on the wiki but Haurchefant isn't there. ๐
Ramuh extreme. I went to Gridania but the quest wasn't there, so I backtracked to Slafborn, and he didn't have one. Prior to him is Haurchefant.
scarlet doesnt have the quest?
nope
haurchefant is not involved in that questline.
did you pick it up already?
and unlock it?
did you complete the msq "brave new companions"
I think so
they're well past that point, I believe
I'm into Stormblood now, currently on "A Friend of a Friend in Need".
screenshot what scarlet says
betting you have it in your quest log already
What's a good place to practice my rotations?
training dummies
It's annoying having to wait 120s each time
Summerford farms
like for an ability to cool down
ah
She only has "A Bad Bladder" quest. I'll restart the game, see if she has another quest line. And no, I definitely don't have it in my quest log right now. Hopefully it's just bugging out.
screenshot your quest log
Or you could just go to a Stone Sky Sea dummy, such as the one outside of Eulmore.
and check your completed quests section, as well.
finally went to hotbar hell and committed two hours to learn the rotation and totally redo my hotbars'
I hate messing with my muscle memory
are you talking about urianger
nevermind i read the rest of the convo
^ ?
the stuff with slafborn seems like an unrelated quest you picked up on accident
Man I re-installed the game for the 5th time now and I still get dc when I try to enter some dungeon/raid
Does anyone know how I can get my Level 70 artifact armor? I'm a dragoon
Job quest
from your job quest
Hello , Quick question if I got the game from Mog station [from the website] after a while I bought it from steam can I still play from the same account
no
Or calamity salvager if you skipped
you would need to make a new account for steam
Alright cool thanks ๐
How do I get to that place where the quest is at?
fly
Fly
You need to have flying
gross ok ty
World Visit from character selection that was added bugged or smth? tried it and it sent me into a queue for another server of over 3k 
Just wondering if it's supposed to just dump you onto some random other server is what I'm asking i guess? seems like it threw a bunch of people onto one
That is what it's supposed to do
It places you onto a server that's currently less populated
It's for when your home world has a long login queue.
seems like that one had a mass d/c so it thought it was "less" populated
can i use the tales of adventure: one dark knights journey 2, before unlocking dk? will it unlock it for me and boost? or do i have to unlock it first
i find it funny that my home world had a queue of like 100 and i keep getting shuffled into 3k+ queues then. Guess I'll try to refrain from using this feature
you don't need to unlock it first
so if its locked i just use the boost and it insta boosts and unlocks dk to 70 for me?
awesome, ty guys ๐
does anyone elses FFXIV just doesn't wanna close?
I always need to force it close in task manager
I dunno why, it's a very stable game, other than exiting the game itself haha
No, I've never run into that issue. I'm no tech person, so idk why that happens, but maybe you can try other avenues of logging out? If the system menu doesn't work, maybe you can try logging out through the beds in the inns? ๐ค
If I start conjurer, when am I able to find the thaumaturge guild?
Hey team is this item a crafting item only or can you exchange tokens/poetics/other currency for it?
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Ironworks_Cap_of_Gathering
Only crafted
Is that 15 in the main quest? i'm 18 right now
you can farm eden now ?
Normal eden, yes
you may farm eden now
are you allowed to chat as a trial player?
Hey ya'll. I'm trying to figure out how to start The House That Death Built to start doing Palace of the Death. I need to talk to Nojiro Marujiro to unlock it but he doesn't have it nor is it in my completed side quests. I checked my journal and Copper Hell was completed which is the prerequisite to talk to Nojiro. Kinda at a loss at where to go next.
Only in say, party, alliance, novice network and linkshells
You can't use yell or shout or tells/whispers
what about to people near me?
That's say
another question
is there a dungeon or something i can do with my friend whos also a trial player?
were both around lvl 20
The story takes you to dungeons
whats the ideal ping again? i know over 200 is not good
You need to be in a party with them to que together, which you can ask someone to invite you both
anyone know a good rp server?
oh so we need a member to invite us?
Balmung, Mateus or Hyperion
Yes
HI. My name is dumbdumb because it seems I picked up the quest and forgot... 
thanks for the help
oo hyperion sounds cool imma do that one thank you :D
right click on the name and then vote kick
In the party menu
under 110 or so you should be able to double weave at most usual GCD thresholds
In the social ui
Anything under 100 I'd consider "great" ping for this game.
Open the social menu, which is where your friend list usually is
Fights are doable fine up to like 200ms, but you won't be able to double weave without clipping your GCD so you won't be the most competitive on FFLogs rankings or anything
Imo for some job like mch.. 150 is the limit or you wont be even able to single weave during WF window
it says my min is 49ms, max is 56ms and my avg is 51ms... is what what im looking at ?
You have excellent ping then
im like 100 ms under i dont play mch but i know that job is ping heavy
Where can I buy glamour crystals in Limsa?
Regular shops don't sell them, but your Grand Company Seal shop does
I mean like the guy in Vesper Bay that sells them
He doesn't
Those are clear prisms
He sells clear prisms that can be crafted into glam prisms
Yeah prisms. I need disspellers
this is not really recommended
Thats great! My closest DC is JP and even then my average ping is 110-130. And when its bad day oh boi.. even i clip normal single weave
You can buy dispellers from Bango Zango in Limsa by the aetheryte
Oh dispellers are sold by Bango Zango in Limsa
Is that in Hawker's Alley?
No, he's right next to the aetheryte
How do I unlock free company
ah ok
Get invited to one
You can join a Free Company anytime, provided you're not on the Free Trial.

I believe this was already linked to you
Go to a main city and yell about not having a free company
Find a Free Company on your home world and leave a comment on their community finder page so you and the recruiter and find one another ingame
Is the community finder in my menu
On the website
Itโs a site
Lmao
I just shared a link
This is also a valid option
Thats sounds like a bit of a wierd thing to do
Itโs better than getting an invite out of nowhere
Why
You see people spamming recruitment messages all the time in main cities
The culture might be different on Mana.
Mana is quiet
Can someone explain to me why my Shadowbringers/Endwalker codes from steam arent valid on mogstation? I'm super confused
The product codes that pop up on steam when you open the game
I got FF14 a long time ago. I don't remember when. I just never really played it until now
did you buy the codes from steam or SE store
I got Endwalker and shadowbringers through steam
Steam
Says Standard (Steam) to be more specific
And you're putting them in under Enter expansion code?
Do you already own Starter Edition?
How do I transfer my character from Mana to Elemental
Is there a tab specifically for expansion codes? I go to Your Account > Enter Item Code
You're in thr wrong plaxe
Mog Station > Additional Services > Home World Transfer Service. Costs $18 USD

are the game able to tell player height? Like I make a house where only Lalafell can enter, while other people stuck at the entrance.
The game knows height as only lalafells can enter dwarf houses
drk or gnb
Flip a coin
No you can't get people stuck on geometry based on their height
I think Ill use gnb since it have less ogcd
continuation would like a word with you
How long will it take for my irl purchases take to get to my account
in addition to what lyon said, you also cannot just tell besides measuring it out with existing metrics
a min height lalafell is one yalm / yard
GNB has more.
GNB is higher apm than DRK.
GNB has you press the most oGCDs out ofall the tanks
the hiearchy is GNB > DRK > PLD > WAR
what's the purpose of ng+ besides being there for those who either forgot the story or bought a skip?
nothing, you have described it
That is the purpose.
I prefer GNB since for DRK I have to constantly double weave and sometimes I lag :/
GNB double weaves very often every 60
DRK can single weave.
And weaves every 30s
Not counting defensive Cooldown usage
ok, thought it might give rewards or such but it seems i don't need to worry about spending 300 - 400 more hours on the story in a good while. ty!
GNB can single weave but for the purposes for getting everything under buffs you want to double weave as much as possible with GNB to shove everything in a shorter window
Is it worth 18 usd to transfer from Mana to Elemental to find an FC because if the FC is active I would be active
same philosophy with MCH
Ill go check balance
I'm adjusting the chat log settings for dungeon runs, but i've seen stuff like the chimera's eye turns blue show up in the general tab. Anyone know to which log filter this belongs. Would be useful to still show this information during raids.
though with GNB needing to weave very often double weaves wil still happen if playing around defensive CDs like Lyon mentioned
do you get the memories from the first step of the relic from only bozja and not zandor?
maybe Ill just go WAR ;)))
Only bsf
yes if it states southern front only
rip ive been farming zandor D: i cant read
ty :)
heads-up i think everything is actually BSF only
up until the springs / books / crystal step
which is specifically zadnor or raids
so stay warned
Something to farm while farming honors
oh ok cool, also i remember people saying that you dont have to repeat some parts
for a second one?
yep
which one was that
it's two steps
The 180 itens
so I'm doing dailies for the first time for the moogle tribe, I just did 6 of the daily quests, but where are my other 6? You can do up to 12 daily right?
And haunting/vexing
You get 3 a day for expansion trives
it's the 36 hw and stormblood alliance raids / 36 yanixa/gyr abania fates (18 of each)
and the one vinyl said
+3 on days you rank up
The 12 limit is for ALL tribes
it's 3 normally and only stays 3 for anything past ARR
oh ok cool ty ty
yes
I guess that is what happened
according to howlongtobeat the average playtime for completing the main story is 120 hours but that can't be true right? i have 300 hours of playtime and i've spent the majority of it playing through the story but i'm still only in the middle of SB.
for the realm reborn beast tribes you unlock more and more quests for a singular beast tribe to do as you rank up
but you are still limited to 12 a day
the realm reborn beast tribes are the only ones with this rule
Depends how often you get distracted and take your time really
^
how long did it take for you guys?
I have 220 hours and am at the end of shadowbringers.
And afking
omg, i'm probably the slowest reader then hahaha
I did spend time leveling botanist and carpenter, and did some mount farming with my fc already
so yeah count those hours in as well
and i aspire to become an english teacher soon smh.
there's no time limit, just enjoy it. playing through msq is something you can only do once for the first time
oh well. i'll just take my sweet time and enjoy the ride without speeding through it.
SB is really fun, shadowbringers even better imo
yeah
Not like there's a rush or anything
we literally ahve 149 days starting today
nah i know. just hoping to finish it and get the relic weapons before endwalkers (or EW for short?).
This relic is piss easy and won't take too lobg
Probably finish it from the start in like a few days
Including the timr to level in bojza
huh, i've heard you need a dedicated party
No
Just don't need to do 15 1 hour runs for a step...now it's 5 1 hour runs
27 tries at suzako still no mount
sadge
just for reference, drop chances are not given by the game devs right?
Nope
it's recommended to level up DOL before DOH right?
Hi all, I'm having trouble changing class to SAM. The game isn't allowing me to equip the soul or any of the gear items. How am I supposed to do it?
Mostly together but Dol probably abit ahead
Ps I own all the expansions
Equip the weapon
ok nice ty
The weapon decides everything
well, gn all and thanks for the help!
@faint flare so I don't see the weapon in my inventory :( hoping I didn't sell it by accident
It was given to you when you unlocked it
check your armony. I think default setting add every new armor/weapon to armony
Ok i got a dumb question my ape brain doesnt understand. I got to lvl 57 as a miner and ppl tell me to start scrip farming. So i think i found some instructions to start a quest in Mor Dhona to get the skills. Now what? Just mine as i normally do?
can i turn in my memories for the first step of the relic for a different class than i did the weapon for?
@plain python it's not in my armory chest
You need to abandon the quest then take it on whatever job
Shit
i keep the memories though right
ok cool ty :)
@vinyl I don't have an open quest it says I finished the way of the samurai
@faint flare
I'm not sure how to proceed?
U dont have a weapon to switch to?
No :(
Preferably the ironworks weapon
Usually ur class will automatically switch to the wrapon
go to vendor and buy one?
I can't switch to the class
Sounds like u need to buy one
It won't let me equip any Sam gear
Just go buy a weapon
Buy the ironworks weapon with poetics in main cities sundry splendors
Best 50 weapon
^^
R u olanning on watching the cutscense?
Yea but i would recommend it
Especially shadowbringers
What vinny said lol
How easy/hard is The Burn?
It's the reason it's mandatory
Yup
I just unlocked it in my MSQ
Whats the burn again?
Last boss is infamous for being a dungeon boss that can actually deal damage
4.4 post-SB dungeon
So don't be my i371 WHM
Hey guys, have anyone ever transfered many characters from one server to another at once?
Once you get flying for a region all mounts travel the same speed in the air, right?
Yeah
All mounts are same speed regardless
"terrestrial"
The answer to that is going to be no because most people don't have many characters
And it's expensive unless you're moving from congested to preferred or to a new server
Terrestrial is just an old thing when they used to not fly
Flying speed is flying speed, the mount type doesnโt matter
yes i have
whats up
You have? 
I want to know 2 things:
It says you pay 18$ and can transfer them all if they are on the same server and go all to the same other server, is this correct?
And, do they transfer in the same order you have them in your Lobby, or they get all mixed?
Your computer being unable to download patch files obviously
yes, you can move every character on that server to the new server of your choice, and the order they are in remains the same as it is currently.
that's some blizzard level advice
anyone else got zingers
Awesome, this helps enormously, tyvm
does anyone have any solutions for this
Restart the launcher
Restart PC and Modem, and try again
And itโll continue where it left off
You are downloading years of files
It cuts the amount of MBs every time it patches, dont worry
Perhaps you had 10% but it prolly was 48k
Yes
Unless it didnt patch before the reset
Hi so I'm probably gonna sound stupid, but if I changed class from Conjurer to Archer guildwise, I'd be able to equip War gear, right?
Disciple of War gear yes
last thing before i og -- my usual down speed is 20 mb/s, on here it's 3 mb/s. is there a way to fix that, or is that just how things go
Okay thanks! I didn't wanna buy the gear to learn I wouldn't be able to use it
And as you progress the gear eventually changes to gear that only goes to the physical ranged dps jobs
And doesn't have Str on it
Because Str does less than nothing for ARC/BRD
Thank you!
Not really sure about this, but i think the download speed its p2p, based on how many peeps are seeding, if it didnt get any better from resetting your modem, it prolly wouldnt get any better
surely there's a better way than to use p2p LOL
do you need to do the 5.0 patches to finish MSQ or is it not critical content?
So I guess this patch broke ExitLag users? Can't login anymore when I have it open 
Just googled it, it apparently gets capped because download servers are currently congested or something, it could get better on its own in the way
wdym? msq is msq and the 5.x patches added msq
idk lol
some endgame content is only available after finishing the 5.3 msq if that's what you're wondering
to unlock endgame instances or something
yes you need to do the patches
kk gotchu
5.3 is needed for the final tier of eden. 5.4 is needed for the final relic zone
Ofc story locks dungeons

how do i convert my gear for gc seals?
Reach Sergeant Second Class
Go to GC
Turn in gear for GC seals
I don't know who you go to though
talk to your grand company's personnel officer
ohh i see it
thank you :D
does it affect something if I equip my retainer with crafter gear?
So do I stop gaining xp from POTD after 60?
only ilvl matters, regardless if its crafter gear, right?
for combat retainers, yeah all they care about is ilvl
nice, thxs
all item level synced dungeons dont give the same amount of xp right? should I spam Doma Castle or am I good to spam Castrum Abania for the last level
level 70 dungeons would give less exp than abania
so im safe with Abania tho
are potd levels replayable? meaning, I don't have to restart from floor 1 and can just start at floor 40 instead?
you only have two choices for floor starts, floor 1 or floor 51 (after you've cleared floor 50)
Kael
ah okay, unfortunate
What's the quickest way to get my ACN from 12 to 15 after doing the 10 job quest so I can take it into dungeons
Hunt Log + FATEs or PotD?
both are pretty equal
Would you happen to know where I can find some Lv 12 or so fates then
Probably like Aleport or something right
Or Swiftperch
aleport ye
does rescuing interrupt an ally's cast?
yes
trying to lvl from 48, already did my challenge and hunting log
should I queue for the highest level dungeons I can or just leveling for most xp?
tank btw
if you've already done your daily leveling roulette, queue up for the highest lvl dungeon
aight
So... which job uses reagent as their material to craft?
I'm focusing on botanist / fisherman / culinarian
All of them past 55, really
The expansion gear mostly uses โpotionsโ made by alchemists to kinda โalignโ them to a stat
!item grade 1 alkahest of strength
Hmmm... my chocobo saddle is almost full, 2 of my retainer also almost full. Bag full already lol! Any tips?
!item grade 1 strength alkahest
When applied to items such as battle gear, this experimental alchemical liquid will dissolve away minute amounts of aether aspected to elements detrimental to strength, and by doing so, better attune the item and its wearer to the remaining beneficial elements.
start selling, dumping, or buy another retainer
Toss out/sell items with a shop selling price listed
Those are things a vendor sells
surely if it's that full then there must be something you can sell
Unless you plan to use them very soon
yeah, as I mentioned before I'm currently focusing on culinarian, fisherman and botanist. Other than that I probably don't need other items not used by those 3 jobs
Fish as a whole are generally useless and meant for selling to vendors
Selling all lumbers, leathers, bones maybe? reagents
But I need fish for culinarian ๐ฎ
Or should I just buy as needed?
Not many fish are used in recipes
Oh where is the option to view all bags again? I forgot where that option is
Look at all your spare materials for the bottom box and see if a Gil amount is listed by โShop Selling Priceโ
Character config > inventory/item settings
Why do my tank skills stay in my hotbar when I switch to armorer? Did I miss some setting to turn this offโฆ?
And change inventory to expanded
Character config > hotbar settings > shared
So thatโs what that means. Thanks
Chooses which hotbars you want to be class specific or shared between all jobs
Ooh okay
Thanks! I'll go sort things out

Many skill's tooltip mention unaspected damage?
Is there aspected damage or something that's different?
its just for flavor
unaspected just means it has no element
elements used to matter but it isnt anything meaningful anymore
(they do matter on blue mage)
and is largely there for flavour, beyond black mage's ice/fire phases and blue mage's carnival
Always found it funny how I can kill a fire elemental with fire
Unaspected is relevant to RDM in that indicates magic damage
Ie your melee combo actually deals magic damage, boosted by embolden, opposed to your ogcds, which aren't
fleche and contre sixt don't even mention unaspected
they just state they deliver an attack (indicating that they're physical damage)
Speaking of RDM, it's there ever a point of using Moulinet and Reprise (enchanted)?
yes, enchanted moulient is your AoE melee skill
for reprise:Q: What should I use Enchanted Reprise for? As it is a ranged ability, Enchanted Reprise should mainly be used to maintain GCD uptime during movement heavy mechanics. It can also be utilized in a few other areas, including using it to weave oGCDs as they come off cooldown and using it to get an extra GCD before a boss becomes untargetable. It can also be used to dump mana before your Manafication, however with current potencies, this should not be seen as something that "must" be done each cycle.
Yeah, that's sort of my point
i guess i just found issue with saying "unaspected is relevant" when its not unaspected itself, its the lack of "deals magic damage" in general on those skills
I did wondered about that
Mostly, because the melee combo being magic damage and the ogcds not is super unintuitive
The enchanted melee attacks are listed as unaspected, rather than nothing like ogcds/unench melee are
Most populated EU Server?
I have a complicated issue with trying to start the game on ps4
My hdd kinda died yesterday and I had to use the original/previous one
as a casual non savage returnee, which equipment set should i aim?
is it the crystarium?
From Doritos? Cryptlurker
After successfully booting the system with the new ps4 and game update, the client doesn't recognize that I have purchased all expansions
My account on mogstation says I have them all
I can't sign in to the client on ps4
It says enter code purchased with download and asks me to quit app
doritos?

Oh nice I lost connectin
What a hairy situation to be in

ever since the maitenence ive been having this pop uphttps://prnt.sc/16ekhr1
What the actual f
Why is it in Japanese
hell if i know
it seems FFXIV encountered error or something
it was working fine before update
Something to do with the 15th of June, 1:06 PM
527 SCH I believe since they use 2 pieces crafted and 1 zadnor although not 100% sure
kinda depressed i cant play
So um, a friend showed me how to get some good EXP for crafting through custom deliveries on Culinarian as soon as I hit 60
He also said there's something similar for gathering, Botanist to be specific
Do you guys know what he might've referred to and how to do it? 
(he's asleep
)
Custom Deliveries
its the same thing for gathering
Itโs also available for gatherer
Anyone else having trouble logging into the game client? I can log into the Lodestone just fine apparently but can't log in to play through steam
custom delivery npcs have an option for crafters, and an option botanist/miner and fisher
that said you either choose to turn it in on a crafter, or you turn it in on a gatherer
Well yes, but how/where exactly would I do that? When he showed me the custom deliveries for culinarian all he showed me were 2 NPCs to buy mats, what to craft, and 2 NPCs where to trade in stuff, nothing else ๐
They have to be the appropriate level of course
Oh, I see
How do I get to the windows from this screenshot? I can't exactly remember 
Right click -> search gathering location
can either talk to the custom delivery npc themselves or open it thru the timers window
Oh perfect, thanks! ^^
The deliveries should be level 60, right? 
I only have 1 I can do from ||M'naago||, I can't seem to be able to gather the one I need from ||Kai-Shirr||
Tbh, gathering is a lot easier to level so if you intend to level crafters I'd do them with the deliveries
Kaishirr is 70+
khloe you can be 58
Ohh, oki, thanks!
You can unlock Khloe and tamamizu girl and adikiragh
Where exactly would I do that?
Khloeโs in idyllshire
khloe and adkiragh are in idyllshire, kurenai is in ruby sea
Khloe and adikoragagagsh are in idyllshire, though the latter has a quest line you need to finish first
adkiragh needs a side quest done from the azim steppe
Awesome thank you ^^
kurenai requires you to complete the ruby princess quest chain
Kurenai is in tamamizu, also needs a quest line done
This is the only sidequest chain I've done and I liked it
Thereโs another one you can get by doing a firmament questline
ehll tou and charlemend both require 70
Please help ๐ฎ
You can start the questline at 60 though
I mean yes you can prep for it
but the unlock quests themselves are 70

That would make sense. I'm just dumb trying to do something idk.
gold completion guarantees a memory

iโll do bozja at peak times; fates at off peak times
Do bozja with a party; shout for one if you must
bozja fates give resistance remembers memories ?
when i'm playing scholar and have undergeared tanks, should i just spam physick to get their hp up when aetherflow is depleted?

No
so is there a specific data center that has items for cheaper or is the market board not going to be effected by the new feature?
What new feature?
we don't know because the economy is player driven and we do not know which ones will be cheaper ahead of time
if at all
we already can hardly predict which markets in the existing world-travel economy will be cheaper or otherwise
can i get quest help
?
Whatโs the objective say?
i need 2 go 2 horizon
oh go to western thanalan I think horizon in on the north
I dont know how to spell thanalan, its in Uldah region
i cant find it
um can type the quest on your upper left corner screen thing
Itโs the place with the aetheryte
lamia is a server
The city Lisma, with the pirates
I mean your current location XD
idk y
I think when I started a character in Limsa, I couldnt travel anywhere until I finish my msq? I wasl like level 10 or something
im level 16
You can't leave your original city until completing level 15 msq
msq wise did you travel all 3 city states?
Although I guess technically you can leg it
no idea
Back to the question, what is the quest called
Limsa you can't need a boat ride or airship to gridania or uldah, a friend tried to fly me but cant get out of limsa
i was kicked out in cue
passing the blade
ok so you are in uldah
So youโre still in the citystate quests
Yes, itโs kinda a default thing
yea y
in the corner of you map, there are red arrows, can you see an arrow that says "Western Thanalan" or somethign
horizon is on the west part
i said m
Are carpentry and other jobs of the like considered Disciple of Land/Hand or do you buy that gear from somewhere else?
can i know what's the hotkey for this?
dont want to manually change it all the time
dungeon mentor that req 1k dun/trial etc
separated ? or combined
1k dungeon 1k trial
well i think i fixed it
_>
im still clueless
i just uninstalled some junk, so i think that was the issue maybe something that got installed clashed with the game
so in your map if your starter city is Uldah, while in the game go to you the main aetheryte, you can open your map by typing m while in game. Horizon is on western Thanalan
1 to 0, - and = for keyboard by default, but you can change it yourself in settings
ah, i meant the changing of set <1> to <10>
I have menphina's earings, should I do palace of the dead until lvl 60 or do dungeons (im trying to lvl mch)
potd, dps has dps queues
thx so much
quick question should i just get rid of the midan parts if i dont want the glam?
yes no need to keep em
uh ?
what does that mean
i cant read that lol
oh nvm
yeah its 1k total not 1k each i believe
@hardy salmon you just have to click the arrow next to hotbar 1
theres no way to change hotbar 1 to hotbar 10 otherwise afaik
or have them both on screen
Hello! Was watching some trial videos and saw this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAgjotW-6xw anyone know how they got their hp bar, icons etc to change?
I cant seem to find the option 
ui mods
forbidden to ask here how?
i believe so
oh 
we promote ACT and shit anyway
I think I found it so I'll refrain from asking if its against ToS 
asking about mods is fine
it's just a don't ask don't tell thing ingame
^
oh nice, is it Material UI?
yes
ty!
john finalfantasy the 14th won't bust down your door for a ui mod
just don't mention it to be safe
oh fuck oh shit hes coming
we won't either
Whereโs the best place to get an invite to a wedding?
limsa
Hmm, what about near the ivory chapel npc?
i wouldn't know
generally i doubt it
limsa is a populated area with social people
that is your best bet regardless
Okie, thanks
What BTN level do I need to gather stuff for coffee biscuits? (coffee beans, upland wheat and garden beets)
76+ is the level of the mats
i think 70 can do it fine but generally more annoying to do compared to being at 80 with 80 gear
I see ty
weres owyne
owyne?
yes
Click the quest objective and itโll show exactly where they are on the map
what does /tomestone do
oh ok
It's an emote
Itโs an emote, you gotta get the companion app for it
It's not premium, just downloading it is enough
Premium does give some other perks although it may not be worthwhile
For the cost you could rent out two additional retainers
should i keep doing normal eden promise?
It just unlocked so absolutely
what do retainers do

is there an incentive to doing 80 dungeons after both dailies are complete ?
servers r laggy 4 me
no
if you want to do them then you can just queue for them manually
otherwise it's RNG 'pick a dungeon for me'
hello folks
need to get a potion that will help me to heal my pally cause im getting hit hard with 2 mobs spamming me dead 4x already and i cant do this w/o staying heal up and plus i do stay out of the AOEs
Can free trial users use retainers?
some kind of dragon and guy like a wizard
not that i know of
Ok jw
hold up let me link you a site what the restrictions are
What's the most efficiently way to casually farm allagen tombstone of peotics?
i mean free trials have chocobo bag/saddles if you have a chocobo
Thanks
No retainers
yep but it does help you how to play your toon up to lvl 60
I guess Iโll get the main game once I finish HW
so you can learn each limited classes
Retainers are also kinda connected to MB so it makes sense
I capped 300k so many times. Iโm just buying random mats now lol
I mean they kinda already do this when they disable retainers if you cross realm
My main smn is maxed. I spent the last week getting war to 50 for the HW MSQ exp
Might even have to try a healer lmao
Oh yeah I asked this yesterday but didn't get an answer
one thing you can make one toon and get to lvl 30 and you can make other classes on that same toon and all you need is a weap to change the gears and class and it is done automatically
I need a good physical BLU spell to use as a base attack, what's available?
so you dont have to make extra toons
I know sharpened knife is one though perhaps there's other options?
Yes I know itโs all one character with multiple jobs thank god
drill cannon is a good ranged one
sharpened for melee
yeah classes and jobbers (crafters)
electrogenesis is another popular filler blu gcd
abyssal transfixion
it doesn't have a shorter cast time but it's physical and fine
These are all physical?
electro isn't phyiscal
electro is magic
the one i listed was
abyssal is phys
drill is
5-tonze weight is physical too
I've been looking into beating Azulmagia and learned he switches weakness is why
abyssal transfixion is fine
flying frenzy
yeah i just used drill for that
flurry kick
it's equally as annoying to get as sharpened but abyssaal doesn't need you in melee range
not all gcds but here are some physical stuff
night rix
you can watch BLU academy's vid on it if you aren't a stickler for doing it blind
In the same vein, how useful is basic instinct?
i need a urn?
its good for soloing instances
anyone free on famfrit?
i actually don't know if you can use basic instinct at all in carnivale
but has no purpose in masked carnivale/overworld
I tried it for pharos hard and I got demolished

healer mimic is really strong
basic instinct is really good though if u wanna use BLU to solo shit
can someone help? im new
i use it constantly to one-shot 50 ex's for my journal
Sure go ahead
help with what xenos
trying to level up
what level range
do your main story quests if you have any
Do msq
mhm
!faq questicons
if you're levelling up an alt class under 15 then do hunting log
- 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.
This is your bread and butter
It gives the best exp for levelling up
But if youโre talking about an alt class, thereโs a faq for that
i hit level 20 in under 12 hours
where can i find a good list of bis gear for a job?
!faq balance
theres also a bot command for bis
alr thanks
How does buying the Tales of Adventure expansions work? Can I just buy the one I want to skip to? Or would I have to buy a Realm Reborn then Heavensward? Just wanted to try out the Crystal servers.
you buy the one you want to skip to
so if you want to skip to shadowbringers, just buy stormblood skip
do keep in mind, it doesn't level you
so you may want to also buy a level skip
If you donโt already have a class near or at that level
Yeah, I was gonna grab an expansion and Dark Knight.
What do you mean? I was level 9 for a class, and bought my way to level 70 Dragoon, and it skipped. Didnโt have to train my lancer to 30 or anything.
because lancer = dragoon
fuilteach means if you had already had a character made and leveled
they operate on the same xp
When you get the job boost, it bypasses all the corresponding quests for it too
like if you wanted to skip ARR, and already had a 50 character
you wouldnt need the job skip in that instance
arr is fun
I've returned, because I have failed myself 
I cant seem to figure out how to make the hp bars square and not rounded (material ui)
If anyone does know, I'd appreciate it, if not, more googling 
it was probably an option in the install
oh
you can select which files in the zip for the ones you want
think square is indeed an option
Ah I got it, so basically load the entire mod, then load the optional square hp/mana
i believe so
need to find that 
yeah i downloaded that
When playing DK, should I wait for the animation on my ogcd ability to end before using another?
oh just install it into the textools thing then toggles those on after you toggle on the big file
you should be spamming asap
Would anyone who already has the sophic and round lanner mounts be willing to spam P1T6 and Thordan with me so I can get the last to birds? I'm on the Aether Data Center
Abilities queue, so you basically just want to mash ogcds out
If you're double weaving
yeah mash an ogcd in the first half of oyur recast and then mash the second asap
that should fit both in
obviously there are exceptions that may make this harder or impossible but on DRK that isn't a problem
animation =/= when the damage is confirmed
The exception being abilities that absolutely need to be toward the end of your gcd
yeah animations being cancelled have no bearing when the damage goes off
Which is things like delirium and I think blood weapon?
the snapshot of that is on the press
yes you tpyically want to apply buffs on the 2nd weave window
this holds true for most buffs
blood weapon has a particulalry hard time becuase of a supposedly shorter duration than other buffs for some reason
but yeah most buffs and stuff like that are recommended
yeah i don't play DRK so idk if blood weapon supposed shorter duration is like
an urban myth or actually true
Would you believe, the square hp isn't part of the options? https://github.com/skotlex/ffxiv-material-ui/blob/master/preview_options.md
must be another addon then 
i need help at the unholy heir

Someone was telling me WHM gets some pretty heavy damage later on.. is this true?
!action Afflatus Misery
do they level pretty slow through the msq due to damage prior to that?
Absolutely not
not really
The only spot in the MSQ they might mildly be slower at is going through Stormblood from 60 to 70 because you only get two abilities and another upgrade to Stone
other than hunting board, is there a way to earn allied seals?
blue mage's masked carnival
and killing A/S ranks that spawn in the open world
specifically the ones in the ARR zones
You know what's nice
48 BLM doing 33 MSQ
And where you need to go having two Lv 50 A ranks blocking it
It's not like they're hostile
Another reason why having a gatherer leveled is smart
enemies 4 levels above your gatherer will ignore them
Miners have an ability that works on enemies as high as eight levels over them
has anyone ever get the issue where the gamepad is not recognized by the game
nope but i use the mouse that is on my ps4 and reason i got this so i can use the mouse pad cause the touchpad i have issues it is like it is rigidly like squiggling when i move it to somewhare and i dont get that issue with my mouse and plus i use it faster
btw i do use the controller and keyboard and mouse altogether
Oh that's a good question actually, has anyone managed to get a switch pro controller to work with the game on the Windows version?
i haven't tried, but you could try using the steam integration?
even if you don't have the steam version
as steam supposedly supports switch pro controller
i have a switch controller at home, but i haven't tested it
Hello. Is there an efficient way to search for levequests (ARR zone) that grant wind shards as reward? I've 99 allowances and I'd like wind shards with some of these. I only have miner at 54 and goldsmith at 40 tho.

Healers and tanks actually finish the MSq faster because they don't have queues for the most part
Tank privileges
I'm also fairly certain msq quest target health is scaled to each role, but I never confirmed it
I've tried that and the controller went nuts
Oh yeah healers get queue times that are - seconds because they are quicker then light..poor dps xD
Thanks, I already checked that out. Are rewards from levequests random? If that's the case then getting shards from levequest isn't very feasible... then uh maybe I'll just mine it all away. Thanks
soo i have a dumb question but i have had these alliance raid MSQ quests 3 in a row, if people don't wait for someone watching a cinematic and the person watching the cinematic gets locked out of the boss rooms they can teleport in right? if yes, whats the point of having a sealed boss room then
It's so people don't just zerg rush, among others
After you die, people canโt just run back in at max hp, 0 debuff
It's a long standing tradition in FF that you can't run from boss fights
and also so bosses cant get pulled out
otherwise you could like
bring them to another room
and that messes with mechs
so then i assume it has some system in place that detects the difference from a player that was locked out due to a cinematic or people not waiting versus someone who died?
๐ค
if you arent in the sealed area before it seals, you can tp in
