[dire prawn]

You wait

[open coral]

How long has it been?

If you make a trial account, it will be a trial account until you register the paid version of the game (Starter Edition or Complete Edition).

[flint pollen]

belts what ?

[faint flare]

Yes

belts are going

[random girder]

yes belts are being removed

[open coral]

You can. You can level all the classes to 60 before registering the full game if you want.

But keep in mind it's not the game time that makes it a paid account, but rather the actual version of the game.

[clear garden]

Does anyone know of a good way to calculate the amount of days I would need to max out every single beast tribe? I find math a bit difficult and I struggle with it, tbh. But I'd like to get an idea if I can make it.

[open coral]

You cannot register game time for a free trial account.

Just wait. Make sure your mailbox is empty and click the "request delivery" button at the top once if you want, but it's going to otherwise be a bit of a waiting game.

[shadow olive]

So yesterday, I started playing for the first time and I can't figure out how to enable the voice lines. I've tried everything that I could, but nothing worked. What do I do?

[young steppe]

Is there a way for me to always have AFK status on?

[open coral]

Assuming you do 3 quests per day per beast tribe, you can do four tribes per day (12 allowances). On average it takes about 4 weeks of doing beast tribe quests daily to hit max reputation with them.

This does not account for the days when you roll over to the next reputation level and therefore do 6 quests for the beast tribe. That will cut your daily progress in half on those days.

[open coral]

Not all cutscenes have voice acting.

In ARR, most do not

[shadow olive]

Oh ok, ty

[random girder]

yeah jrpgs dont always have voice acting

because there is so much dialogue

[clear garden]

@open coral mhm, I just have a lot of different levels of rep (am a returning player) and different expansions have different structures, so I was hoping there'd be a spreadsheet of sorts haha

[flint pollen]

speaking of rep and what are the rewards like 100 reps ? and so on ?

[young steppe]

30

[flint pollen]

30?

[young steppe]

30 rep

For Kojin at least last I checked

[open coral]

Depends on the tribe. ARR beast tribes give you like 10-15 per quest. The Pixies in ShB give... a lot more.

[young steppe]

Maybe not

I only did a few

so I am unsure

Like 2 days worth tho

or was it 3

[flint pollen]

some one said like 100 reps you get a free mount but i got none even made a free space or 2

[astral bolt]

Is there any notifications for people applying for your GC Squad?

Or do you have to keep checking?

[open coral]

There should be a system message when you get one. It's easy to miss though.

[ashen kiln]

Hello when I started FFXIV I chose keyboard. But I am using controller now. How do I make it show the co troller tutorial again?

All the hints are for ketboard

Keyboard*

I've figured out a lot of how to navigate the UI but I can't figure out how to use skills and whatnot while fighting.

[faint flare]

Hold the triggers

[open coral]

You... put them on your crossbars and press R2/L2 + the corresponding button

You should see L2 and R2 over the middle of each pair

[ashen kiln]

Holding triggers does nothing currently

[open coral]

Did you properly activate controller mode?

And are you using the cross hotbars?

[ashen kiln]

I don't know. The controller works for most things.

[faint flare]

You're in keyboard mode

[flint pollen]

on some where the setting you can see on the left corner and i think you can switch to keyboard or controller

[open coral]

That's keyboard mode

[faint flare]

Character configuration > press the giant switch

[open coral]

Go into Character Configuration and make sure the toggle is flipped to Controller

[astral bolt]

How do controller hotbars work actually?

I see 4 sets of 4 buttons

[faint flare]

Triggers + face or directional buttons

Can access more hotbars by doing different combinations of triggers, like double tap L2, or L2+R2

[ashen kiln]

Thank you that fixed it.

Much better. That was confusing lol

[shadow olive]

Is there any way to make UI text bigger?

[astral bolt]

Controller hotbars seems pretty clean tbh

[flint pollen]

that is a ps4/5 settings

[ashen kiln]

Do I need to loot monsters?

[open coral]

Nope

It's automatic

[ashen kiln]

Kk

[astral bolt]

I have 4 bars of skills and it's starting to feel a little cluttered

I Probably need better UI management ngl =w=

[ashen kiln]

I keep canceling my target when I try to use true thrust lol

[open coral]

I mean, what you see in my screenshot there is my base WHM bars. Effectively 2 kbm bars worth of abilities

16 skills

I've got other abilities on a second set of bars that I can flip to quickly

Ones with longer cds or that only have situational use

[astral bolt]

I have a skill bar dedicated to obsolete skills for when level sync happens

Oh and the LB button

[neat phoenix]

Is there a way I see what master recipe books ive bought so far?

[open coral]

I have LB somewhere I won't hit it by accident

[knotty lily]

I believe if you try to buy a book you already have, it wont let you? Slow but it works to "spot-check" iirc

[open coral]

I tend to set up my bars as soon as I unlock a job at 30 (or pick up a new one at higher levels), then stick to that same layout permanently. You can put skills you don't have yet on your bars, and they'll just sit there until you have them.

[astral bolt]

How/where do you buy recipe books?

[open coral]

It makes it easier in the long run, because I'm not changing where my abilities are, I'm just adding to the rotation.

[neat phoenix]

thank you

[astral bolt]

Are they recipes with stars in them?

[open coral]

Certain vendors carry them. There's one in Mor Dhona, one in Idyllshire, and one in... Rhalgar's Reach? I think?

[knotty lily]

All in different places per expansion. Mor Dhona, Idylshire, Rhalgrs, etc

[open coral]

And the ShB one is... Eulmore?

Not 100% sure about that.

[astral bolt]

I really need to grind my DoH =w=

[flint pollen]

eulmore it is yes i think

it is the lastest of that

no idea what to expect when endwalker comes about

[devout crystal]

Is NIN very hectic to play? crazy fast paced with complicated rotations and etc? I am currently play SAM but I realized it is easy to get in but hard to master. Very hard to optimize with my smooth brain. How is NIN?

[knotty lily]

Daily GC handins, Beast Tribes (where applicable), collectables on time... you'll get there eventually!

[open coral]

NIN is one of the more active classes, but only during their burst phase.

Similar to SAM though, it's easy to learn but difficult to master

[devout crystal]

i see

[knotty lily]

Feels like NIN is pretty similar to SAM yeah, I find it harder but thats just personal bias (I like SAM a lot).
Its interesting in that you have to "stop what youre doing" to Ten>Chi>Jin or whatever, kinda unique

[open coral]

The same is true of most classes in the game, honestly.

[knotty lily]

MNK > NIN > SAM=DRG if I had to guess melee* hardness for most people? Depends on who you ask, grain of

[open coral]

The exceptions to the rule are basically tanks, who mostly have to worry about using their defensive cds correctly, WHM, which is just Glare spam and the occasional Medica 2 or Assize or big bursty heal, and DNC, which is basically just 1-2-3 combos and Standard/Tech Step and Blade Dance/Feathers to keep them from capping.

[astral bolt]

SAM looks complicated

[devout crystal]

Wait! tanking is easier than DPS in general?

[young steppe]

Am I being stupid trying to level 2 classes to 80 at once? 72 NIN and 72 SAM atm...

[faint flare]

Easier rotations than dps

[open coral]

SAM is actually pretty straightforward.

[faint flare]

And you can tank privilege things

[astral bolt]

for SAM, Is it better to reset the buff with single target or extend the buff with AoE?

[open coral]

Not at all.

[knotty lily]

Not sure about "easier", but different since your focus is usually on different things. Defensives, wrangling mobs, facing the boss properly, etc.

[faint flare]

Only use aoe skills in aoe

[dire prawn]

No

[knotty lily]

On trash mobs of 2/3+ mobs, AOE - and single target, single target if youre asking what I think youre asking

[faint flare]

You'll naturally be refreshing your buffs when cycling through your combo

[astral bolt]

I haven't touched SAM beyond first job quest and practicing skill rotations on a target

[dire prawn]

And you shouldn't

The 54 SAM quest is pure aids

[faint flare]

Not really

Only cause people don't tend to gear up

[knotty lily]

Oddly enough SAM rotation doesnt really change that much from 50 to 80, its kinda nice in that sense

[faint flare]

I never had issues with it

[astral bolt]

So, there's single target and AoE that gives 月 and 花, but only a single target that gives 雪?

[open coral]

Yes

[devout crystal]

Yes

[knotty lily]

Thats correct

[astral bolt]

But the AoE can't start buffs, only extend them

[young steppe]

Sorry but you still kinda do ST on 2targets, only AOE at 3targets as SAM

[knotty lily]

Where Midare costs 3 Sen, its only a single target - Tenka Gokken costs 2 so you'll "never need 雪" for trash mobs

[young steppe]

I got that info from The Balance Discord

Do !faq sam

Your Kaiten should always be used on Iaijutsus

Any excess, dump it on Shinten

Always have Senei on CD

[knotty lily]

(dump Shinten for single - or Kyuten for AOE, if thats the right name?)

[young steppe]

Guren but only on 3t

2t don't, lower p/k

p/k = Potency per Kenki

[astral bolt]

I see o.o

[knotty lily]

Sorry, my bad - looked it up and I meant Kyuten. SAM names are hard, kek

[young steppe]

This?

[astral bolt]

Yeah I wish they're written in kanji =w=

[young steppe]

See that? 150 per enemy, and 300 for 2, not worth for 25 Kenki

[astral bolt]

<= not weeb, just Asian

[young steppe]

320 potency for 25 Kenki

[young steppe]

I'm Asian as well but not East Asian

but I understand

[open coral]

It's fine, you can write them in kanji. I can (more or less) read kanji, even though I hate kanji with a firey passion.

And obviously there are others here who can as well.

We'll know what you're talking about.

[gleaming moon]

I want to meld my gear where do I look up what I put in

[young steppe]

Always try to use your Kaiten on Higanbana (IMPORTANT ON BOSS) and Midare

[faint flare]

!faq balance

[young steppe]

Higanbana is the most powerful DoT you have

[zinc orbit]

The Balance

Discord

[young steppe]

@astral bolt go here

[knotty lily]

Am I the only one who had to whip out google translate 月 花 雪 to realize it was flower snow etc?

[young steppe]

The SAM lounge has great people, I asked there as well

Hmm

[open coral]

Probably?

[young steppe]

!faq samleveling

[zinc orbit]

**Samurai Leveling Guide:**

Disclaimer: This guide is meant for single target (ST) encounters.
For AoE guidance, use the !faq samaoe or !faq samdungeon commands.

「Level 50 Opener」
➜ Keep buffs up, reapply your Higanbana as close to 0s as possible, Midare goes brrrrrr.
「Level 52」― [Kenki Mastery I]:
➜ Introduces Kenki gauge & positionals on Gekko/Kasha. Use Kaiten exclusively on Iaijutsu (Higanbana > Midare).
「Level 60 Opener」
➜ Read Level 52.
「Level 62」― [Kenki Mastery II]:
➜ Kaiten all Iaijutsu, use excess Kenki on Shinten, use Level 70 Openers.
「Level 70 Bana 1st Opener」>「Level 70 Midare 1st Opener」
➜ Reserve Midare 1st for encounters that require you to move exactly as you need to cast Higanbana with Bana 1st opener (e.g. UCoB Twintania).
「Level 76」― [Tsubame-gaeshi]:
➜ Use exclusively after Midare Setsugekka (ST) or Tenka (AoE), never after Higanbana.
「Level 78」― [Enhanced Jinpu & Shifu]:
➜ Congratulations! You can now study up on the max level rotation and practice it on Innocence.

[astral bolt]

Thanks

[young steppe]

@astral bolt

See that rotation there

That is for your leveling

[open coral]

And it's "moon" "flower" "snow" @knotty lily 😄

[astral bolt]

Sorry I haven't been able to remember any of SAM's job skill and mechanic names yet, so I can only say what the kanji on the job gauge icon is

[young steppe]

There this flashy move that you might find awesome during your leveling which is to use your Yaten (jump out) -> Kaiten (empower next weaponskill) -> Enpi (throw dagger) -> Gyoten (jump in) -> then maybe do whatever you fancy like Kaiten into Midare lol

[faint flare]

That

[faint flare]

Sounds like a waste of kenki

[young steppe]

Nah

Its just flashy

[faint flare]

And a waste

[young steppe]

Its good for random mobs whilst running around

[knotty lily]

Isnt 320 the same potency as a uh

[open coral]

Huge waste of kenki though

[young steppe]

Not referring to dungeons

[open coral]

Flashy, but ultimately useless.

[young steppe]

Yup yup

[astral bolt]

So Enpi is the standard projectile move like Knife throw and sheild lob?

[young steppe]

I do that to random mobs, I don't do it in dungeons LOL

[young steppe]

Yea

[open coral]

Yep

[knotty lily]

Not used too often, however - but good for mechanics you cant stay in range for hey

[young steppe]

I thought of leveling and maining NIN because of high APM but damn, SAM is so flashy and pretty easy if you can grasp the fact that your Kaiten should always be used with your Iaijutsus (i.e. Higanbana, Tenka Goken 3targets, Midare Setsugekka)

[open coral]

I find SAM easy to comprehend because I was familiar with the basis for its ability names beforehand, which made it easier to figure out how things were going to work.

[young steppe]

I kinda miss my mudras though but well, I am leveling both haha

[spiral inlet]

How do you get the teleport ING discounts again the 50% off ones

[open coral]

You can get a 40% off one from squadron missions.

[spiral inlet]

Authentication is free

[open coral]

30% off from your FC if they have the reduced rates.

[eager lichen]

Hey guys, I'm pretty stuck. I haven't played in a few years (stopped right before shadowbringers), came back onto my 52 ninja, and at 54 was told I have a class quest. I have literally no idea where it could be.

I went to the ninja house, nothing.

And if I check my completed job quests, nothing for ninja is even there???

Anyone know where I should go?

[open coral]

Do you have the MSQ tracker active?

[scarlet arrow]

the quest should be displayed underneath your MSQ tracker

[eager lichen]

I have that, but it's showing Rock the Castrum, the main quest

[open coral]

If you do, then you should be able to click on the available quest right underneath.

[scarlet arrow]

should be in very small text

[eager lichen]

Nothing, no. And no job related quests in my log at all

[open coral]

It'll be much smaller, with a little ! in a circle.

[faint flare]

Then you done all available job quests

Rest will unlock later

[knotty lily]

You can check that too, by going into Journal to the Completed section and look to see all the Ninja Job Quests youve done so far. Concrete evidence

[open coral]

Yeah, if you don't have a quest at the ninja base near Wineport, then you don't have an available quest right now.

[eager lichen]

I'm also missing the level 52 attack, and says i need to learn it? I'm assuming it was quest related

[faint flare]

You're behind in story

[heavy wadi]

do your msq

[scarlet arrow]

ah yes

[open coral]

Oh!

[faint flare]

!faq whynojobquest

[zinc orbit]

Why am I Past lv50 Without the Abilities of My Job

Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in , you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.

Image URL: https://imgur.com/IQgUjw7.png

[faint flare]

See here

[scarlet arrow]

need to get to Heavensward to get more job quests

[open coral]

Yeah, you have to complete all the way up to 3.0 before you can continue.

[eager lichen]

so i need to beat mainquest, then?

[open coral]

Yes

[eager lichen]

I understand.

Thank you! ❤️

[open coral]

MSQ is that important.

[knotty lily]

Its probably kinda easy to outlevel MSQ these days, so I could see why that happens

[astral bolt]

So... I just beat ||Ramuh||, how long until I reach Before the Dawn?

[modern mango]

I just got a PS5 and I owned FF14 (up to stormblood) in ps4, I have read that I can upgrade to the ps5 version for free, do I have to buy Shadowbringers after to play or before?

[eager lichen]

It's frustrating that they give me the ability, but I can't use it, and that it told me to get the quest. 😢

Still, thanks a lot! 😄

[faint flare]

You need a sub to log back in

Since you own the game

[untold pawn]

im new should i buy the stater pack?

[faint flare]

Do trial

[eager lichen]

Also, is there any reason to keep low level mats and stuff, as im leveling

[open coral]

Quite a bit. You're a little less than halfway through post ARR

[knotty lily]

You're in patch "2.2" and you have to get through 2.3, 2.4, and all of 2.5. Its a bit

[modern mango]

But aside from the sub, whenever I upgrade the game, I should buy the ps5 version on mogstation right to keep playing?

[faint flare]

You buy from the psn store for expansions

[untold pawn]

i did the trial but got some pc problem so have to format the pc when i try to redownload it said i have to sub

[open coral]

If you have a PS5, then there's no reason not to upgrade to the PS5 version on the PSN Store.

[modern mango]

Okay, on PSN store then, got it! Thanks a lot

[knotty lily]

Crafting materials I assume? If you plan to craft, maybe... but most low level mats are cheap and in abundance so judge that based on how much inventory space you have?

[untold pawn]

should i get the starter pack?

[open coral]

And you'll only need to buy Shadowbringers if you want to go past the end of Stormblood content. You shouldn't need to buy it prior to upgrading I don't think.

[shut vine]

if i buy ffxiv for a month will i not be able to play the free trial again after that?

i may be lost

[tropic flame]

yes the only way you can continue is by buying another sub

[open coral]

If you buy the game and apply that code to your account (different from buying game time, which is not possible to do if you don't have the full game), then you cannot go back to the free trial.

[untold pawn]

is the stater pack only give you the sub?

[open coral]

Yes, the Starter Edition is what gives you the 30 free days. You get the same 30 free days from the Complete Edition because that includes the Starter Edition.

[oblique yew]

If I have cleared e9s for the week and got the loot, I can't spam that again for the week right?

Or have they changed that in this patch?

[untold pawn]

so which one is better gfor value the stater or the complete?

the only expansion i need to buy is the endwalker right everything before is count in the base game?

[open coral]

The Starter is just ARR and Heavensward. The Complete is the whole game up through Shadowbringers.

So you need to either buy the Starter Edition + Shadowbringers (+ Endwalker if you want to preorder it now) OR the Complete Edition (+ Endwalker if you want to preorder it now)

[jade quartz]

Endwalker will include Stormblood and Shadowbringers, however if you buy it now you won't actually get access to those expansions until Endwalker releases in November.

[open coral]

^

[young steppe]

To be honest, just play your trial, do all quests and get all to 60s before considering to buy any expansions and subbing

[open coral]

Savage was loot unlocked as of Tuesday's patch, so you can farm it now.

[left whale]

unlock paradigms reach next pls,. i need my glams

[young steppe]

I understand there are some limitations in place (i.e. 300k gil and 0 retainers) but it's still pretty great

[shut vine]

k thanks

[untold pawn]

oh so i just get the starter if i want to got futher then trial right?

[open coral]

Yes, that will happen in 5.58, the last patch before Endwalker comes out.

[left whale]

shit

[young steppe]

Yes but you also have to sub

[open coral]

No. The Starter Edition is the same content as the trial from a gameplay standpoint.

It just has the social restrictions removed.

[untold pawn]

i kinda fuck up lost my trial so

[young steppe]

So before you do buy the starter and starting to sub, I highly recommend for you to finish all of the quests, get to 60 for all classes

[young steppe]

What do you mean

[untold pawn]

i tried but got a problem with PC so i have to format when i try to download the game and play it said i have to sub

[young steppe]

Download the Trial Client

Not the Subbed Client

There's 2 different clients

or rather launchers

[untold pawn]

where can i find it?

[young steppe]

https://freetrial.finalfantasyxiv.com/gb/

If you do not have one, create an account

If you do have one, sign up

There will be a client download there that is specific for trial players so you won't have to download excess assets that trial players can't get to

Hence why I recommend trial players to do all the quests and get all to 60s before even buying starter account + expansions + subs

[untold pawn]

it said im not eligible

[young steppe]

Have you purchased?

[untold pawn]

no

[young steppe]

Choose your region I guess

All the way below

Not intuitive, I know

[untold pawn]

the truth i want to bunny race so i think i gonna sub anyway

[young steppe]

Viera?

[untold pawn]

yep

[young steppe]

You have a fantasia after you finish the MSQ

[untold pawn]

just asking which one i should buy starter or complete

[vivid bison]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[young steppe]

so you can race change later

[warm yacht]

What are some combat applications where macros can actually be beneficial?

Seems like you're pretty heavily discouraged from doing so

[young steppe]

but in all honesty it is up to you

[young steppe]

<mo> for mouseover

<t> for target

I use both for my Shukuchi on NIN

[warm yacht]

well yeah beyond your typical <mo>Atherial_Manipulation

[oak ice]

You have a few

[oblique yew]

So I won't have to bother with e10-12s to get grind for the bis?

[untold pawn]

stater first then

[oak ice]

Like ground placed AoEs, or target another player abilities

[jade quartz]

Automatically placing ground target AoEs such as Salted Earth or Shukuchi, or using oGCD utility actions that target party members such as Shirk or Dragon Sight.

That's about it.

[warm yacht]

Sounds like I picked a good time to finish Shadowbringers last night

[warm yacht]

Remember when Freeze was one of those?

Good times.

[jade quartz]

yes

[oak ice]

I'm trying to forget, but thanks for reminding me...

[warm yacht]

such an objectively useless spell lmao

[fading aurora]

whats the command to change pets bakc to carbuncle

back*

[warm yacht]

casts Sleep on Perfect Alexander

[jade quartz]

Must first unlock with a level 50 quest at the Arcanist's guild.

Then it's /egiglamour <current egi> <desired glam>

for example

/egiglamour "Garuda-Egi" "Emerald Carbuncle"

[oak ice]

Sleep has niche uses, at least, unlike old Freeze

[warm yacht]

So you can have a macro set to automatically just instaplace the AOE on click without the confirmation?

nice

[jade quartz]

my bad you must have them in quotation marks.

[jade quartz]

Yes on the centre of a targeted enemy (or player, or self)

[leaden ginkgo]

why does this gnome have a B letter by its name?

[warm yacht]

So basically nothing that SAM needs worry about

[fading aurora]

@jade quartzthanx

[remote lintel]

@leaden ginkgo to distinguish it from the gnome to your left

[jade quartz]

All mobs in the game have this, it's just the enemy tagging system to differentiate them.

[leaden ginkgo]

ah
never noticed

[warm yacht]

However, the macro penalty gets worse over time, correct?

Like

the longer a fight goes on, the more macro users suffer

with lost casts

[jade quartz]

Not with macros like the ones mentioned above.

Macroed GCDs yes

[warm yacht]

I'm talking like bad macros

[jade quartz]

!faq macrogcd

[zinc orbit]

Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.

Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA

[warm yacht]

stuff you shouldn't have macroed

Trying to tell one of my friends about that but he's not taking it well

[jade quartz]

Macroing GCDs, or trying to macro more than one skill together on one button, will result in lost casts yes

[warm yacht]

Ah, I see

[jade quartz]

And even macroed oGCDs can be jank to double weave

[dire prawn]

This is why a SwiftRaise macro is bad

[jade quartz]

doable with good ping but still suffering

[dire prawn]

It doesn't work half the time

[warm yacht]

can just mash

[jade quartz]

Mashing won't help

it'll just keep resetting the macro

[remote lintel]

mashing doesnt make it go faster

[jade quartz]

Recommended not to mash macros at all even ones that are actually beneficial

[remote lintel]

also thats not why swiftraise macros are bad

theres a delay between the swift and the raise

[warm yacht]

Is that why a lot of them that I see have the same actions queued up over and over

[remote lintel]

yes

to simulate queueing

[warm yacht]

ah

[jade quartz]

And since the swift can't be queued if you press it too early you won't get the swift and will try to hard raise

[warm yacht]

makes sense

[jade quartz]

Mm, macros attempt to execute one line per frame

So if you have a line repeated lots of times, it will try to execute that action every frame until successful

[leaden ginkgo]

Help!

How do I progress? I cant fight

I cant target enemies

The path is blocked

anybody here that is about to pay for his first month sub?

[finite topaz]

What does the chat says?

Did u skip any hostage?

[leaden ginkgo]

oh

[faint flare]

Go find them

[leaden ginkgo]

everything is blocked now

I cant go back

[remote lintel]

yes you can

turn around and look through all the halls

[leaden ginkgo]

nothing is skipped

i backtracked to the beginning

[remote lintel]

you didnt look through ALL the hallways

the side hallways

[faint flare]

And open doors

[leaden ginkgo]

yup found it

duty failed... its just weird it lets you progress even if you skip

[faint flare]

You're meant to get to that platform first

Then go find the hostages

They don't spawn until then

[formal vine]

Super sprout question but can anyone explain the significance for “world” and “data center” when it comes to FCs and Static raids (which I assume is savage content) reason being is I see lots of recruitment but usually it omits the world and just gives the data center. I think… I am (aether-jenova) which I see as data center-world.

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks!

[faint flare]

World - server
Data centre - cluster of servers

Fcs are server only.

[remote lintel]

fcs are tied to your home world

statics can be cross world

[faint flare]

Statics are data centre wide cause of cross server party finder

[formal vine]

Got yah so it’s normal to be in a different server than your static group which is why recruitment seems to not care about it

Ty all 🙂

[knotty lily]

Currently you can only visit and party up with your own data center, but the devs are implementing "Data Center Visit" in a future patch which will let you go even further beyond

[astral bolt]

From the patch notes I've read, data center visit doesn't let you choose which center

Only ones that are free

[faint flare]

They haven't given us any info

On what we'll be able to do or how it works

[remote lintel]

DC visit is in 5.58

[faint flare]

It actually isnt

They said when on the live letter stream

It was a short mention

"between September and November we'll have media tours and first data centre travel tests"

Something like that

[faint flare]

That's world visit

[remote lintel]

thats not data center

[astral bolt]

Oh my bad

[faint flare]

Data centre travel isn't in the game

[nocturne eagle]

Hey, I already buy the complete edition and the en walker should I keep leveling the trial version or just go fourth and redeem the code? I'm 52 right now.

[remote lintel]

are you prepared to pay sub after 30 days?

[nocturne eagle]

Yeah.

[remote lintel]

then redeem it

[minor ridge]

is the game recommending me this just because it has a higher item level?

[remote lintel]

possibly

[dire prawn]

I wouldn't use the Elm weapon

1 less Vitality and Tenacity and doesn't have Det

[faint flare]

Ilvl and the vit is why it's picking it

[remote lintel]

substats dont really make a difference

[dire prawn]

In that case Elm has one less Vit on it so I still say Frostbite :p

[warm yacht]

Why does it feel like my normal Midare hits harder than my Tsubame?

[faint flare]

Damage variance

[knotty lily]

Are ya crittin, son?

[warm yacht]

probably just confirmation bias

expecting a bigger number on the tsubame and it being smaller is anti dopamine

[faint flare]

It's the same potency as Kaiten'd midare

It's higher to roll in Kaiten potency since Tsumbae can't be Kaiten'd itself due to being an ability

[floral crystal]

[patent citrus]

can't

progress the story first

there will be a boulder that block you from going to another map

[faint flare]

Idyllshire is blocked

[floral crystal]

dang it

[astral bolt]

Everything is locked behind msq

[leaden ginkgo]

hey I can't do command missions on the free trial right ?
it's a stormblood thing

[faint flare]

You can

Squadrons is a Base content thing

Added in stormblood, but it's part of Base content

[leaden ginkgo]

oh ok, but how do I unlock it ?

[faint flare]

Just rank up in the company

And unlock squadrons

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm already at second sstorm lieutenant

[faint flare]

You need to do the lv20 flagged mission from squadrons

In the barracks

[leaden ginkgo]

ooh ok

[twilit arch]

you also need to have the challenge log unlocked to be able to do the squadron unlock quest

[leaden ginkgo]

I already did that

my squadron members are lvl 25

[twilit arch]

ah i misread, thought you were asking about squadrons as a whole

[faint flare]

Then do the lv20 flagged mission

And command missions should unlock

[leaden ginkgo]

got it

thanks alot

[dire prawn]

Where can you go if you accidentally trashed your aether compass

[patent citrus]

forgotten knight

[dire prawn]

Which npc

[gusty storm]

is there a marker that means the opposite of stack

[remote lintel]

the barkeeper iirc

@gusty storm flare

[patent citrus]

the large white coloured one

[twilit arch]

gaufrid is in rhaglr's, gibrillont in ishgard, and jesswren in crystarium

[gusty storm]

is that the one with the arrows pointing out

[remote lintel]

yes

[gusty storm]

ok

[gusty storm]

does that have another version, like how stack markers have the line of arrows and the other one

[remote lintel]

what other one

oh the rectangle

no

[gusty storm]

ok thanks

[tame kayak]

so uh

im pretty noob still

i found an S rank hunt in coerthas

not really sure what im meant to do here

i had a go at it and just died for my troubles

[boreal storm]

People dog pile on S ranks

[tame kayak]

what do I shout

[remote lintel]

S ranks cant be soloed

[tame kayak]

just location and name?

[spiral inlet]

Ok so how does teleporting discounts work again? How do you achieve 50% off teleeporting

[remote lintel]

target the mob and /shout <pos> S rank

[tame kayak]

theres like no one here though

[spiral inlet]

free teleporting is done by authenthicator

[remote lintel]

mark a location as favored

on the aetheryte

[gusty island]

are IV materias worth keeping around?
if so, i have the following reward options:
savage might, battledance, quickarm.
playing WAR

something tells me the answer is "no" and "doesnt matter which reward you pick now because you wont use any of it, probably ever"

[random girder]

precisely

[tame kayak]

and just wait now?

[remote lintel]

yes

[tame kayak]

and as long as I participate in killing it I get stuff right

[spiral inlet]

what gives you the ability for the discount

[remote lintel]

what level is it

[tame kayak]

no need to be in a party or anything

[boreal storm]

Set up a party also

[tame kayak]

its safat

50

[remote lintel]

oh itll die in like

[tame kayak]

wait I do need to be in party?

[remote lintel]

1 second

being in a party increases your chances of getting better rewards

[deep patrol]

Just updated my armour but can't put the same glamour I had on my previous one. Do I need to remove the glamour off the other?

[remote lintel]

@spiral inlet the aetheryte being marked as favored

[tame kayak]

how many people do I need to be in party with

max?

[remote lintel]

ideally a full party

@deep patrol wym you cant put the glamour on it

[boreal storm]

People usually wait for a bit if people are still filling Hunt Parties

[deep patrol]

Can't find the armour I want to use as glamour on my list.

[remote lintel]

do you have it in your armoury chest/inventory?

[deep patrol]

Glamour dresser

[desert radish]

Hi, do we get info on changes with jobs before the release of an expansion normally? And if so do we have a time roughly how long before usually

[remote lintel]

did you put it on a plate?

[deep patrol]

No

[remote lintel]

then you have to go back to your glamour dresser to apply it

[boreal storm]

You should’ve

[deep patrol]

Ah so that's how it works, thank you. Sorry im a complete noob with glamour lol

[remote lintel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQxIuKtfrAk

[faint flare]

There's a media tour before expansion launches which let's content creators and media get hands on with the game in a dungeon, which basically gives us all combat info

As people screenshot tooltips and record stuff

[dire prawn]

You can't even use the code without starter edition :^)

[faint flare]

To preorder you need to own the game

[dire prawn]

Or

Wait

Yeah

[faint flare]

So yes, you would be subbed at that point

[dire prawn]

You can't even use SE store without owning the game :^)

[fading escarp]

So my friends and I just started playing, I made a character on Zalera because it was recommended, and now they can't. Is there a server that would be safe for us to make characters on so we don't get split up?

[dire prawn]

All of them

[faint flare]

As long as it's the same Data centre you can world visit

[desert radish]

Ah OK thanks, also from what I can see there is no data center transfers but anyone know if we will get one with the release of oceanic server or will it be a 100% fresh start?

[dire prawn]

As soon as you do the Lv 1 MSQ and unlock your city's Aetheryte you can use World Visit

[fading escarp]

so we can be in the same guild across worlds?

[faint flare]

Since the servers should be classed as New servers, transfer should be free

[dire prawn]

When the OCE DC comes out you'll be able to transfer for free

[faint flare]

No

[dire prawn]

And you'll get goodies for doing so

Because it'll be an all-new DC

[desert radish]

Ohh I like the sound of that

[dawn cove]

can i invun,the explosion in LOA

[remote lintel]

no

[little swift]

No

[remote lintel]

nice try tho

[fading escarp]

So none of the noobie servers are accepting new characters right now XD

[little swift]

You can survive it if you have more than 9999hp though

!faq serverlock @fading escarp

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

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.

[dire prawn]

So how does the job unlock quest work when I reach 30 ACN

Will I have two separate ones?

One for SMN one for SCH?

[random girder]

yes

youll want to unlock both to level both

idk if they both level if you only have 1 unlocked

[remote lintel]

they dont

[twilit arch]

yes they do

[remote lintel]

oh they do

thats weird

[tame kayak]

@remote lintel when you said s ranks cant be solo'd did you mean that in a difficulty sense

[twilit arch]

you're gaining arcanist exp

[tame kayak]

or that they literally can't be

due to some lock or something

[remote lintel]

difficulty

[tame kayak]

ah

[indigo vale]

Hello again, I am returned with more questions that I should already know the answers to

I'm a Storm Captain, but the Immortal Flames have a staff that I want for my Conjurer. Can I switch to Flames, get the staff, switch back to Maelstrom and keep my rank and Squadron?

[remote lintel]

you wont be able to use the staff

if youre not in the flames

[indigo vale]

Not even on a glam plate?

[remote lintel]

no

[indigo vale]

Y'hate to see it

[boreal storm]

You’ll also have to level Flames to change back

[indigo vale]

That's thoroughly unfortunate

[foggy marlin]

am i insane..

how does melding work?

er let me rephrase, i went to a melder in limsa, was told to go to the bonfire in thanalan but im there and i dont see a bonfire..

[jade quartz]

It's northeast of Black Brush Station

Labeled "The Bonfire" on the map

There you can accept the bluequest/s that unlock materia features.

The MSQ takes you there around level 20.

[foggy marlin]

ah okay thanks

[fathom apex]

are there different factions? or just one? and could someone link me a video or something for the story of FF14 so far?

[jovial quarry]

Grand Companies are similar to factions but they serve no actual faction-like gameplay purpose. As for a story summary, here’s a decent video leading in the the beginning of A Realm Reborn. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXc0loyuq9I

[remote lintel]

there are no traditional "factions" in the game

there are actual empires and city states that have actual politics going on

[fervent garden]

is paradigm breach loot unlocked now after this patch?

[twilit arch]

no, still weekly

[remote lintel]

what the heck

SE betrayed me

[astral bolt]

Is paradigm breach loot not cosmetics?

[slate arrow]

its not cosmetic

it's 520 raid gear

[astral bolt]

o-o

[remote lintel]

it drops hairstyles which are cosmetic

[shut panther]

The raid wide chest at the end isn't locked (and never is)

[leaden ginkgo]

How many playtime worth for shadowbringer expansion

[hard parrot]

How do I assign the same keybind (e.g., F12) across different hotbars?

I have hotbars 1/2/3 for most jobs, but I used hotbars 6/7/8 to organize NIN’s, and the system won’t let me assign keybinds on the “new” set of hotbars without blanking out the previous set of hotbars.

Do I have to manually assign keybinds each time I want to swap jobs? I turned off shared / cross hotbars...

[twilit arch]

you can't have same keybind to multiple hotbars

use a modifier, like alt/shift/control

[dire prawn]

I just unlocked SMN

[hard parrot]

It’s uncomfortable playing a job using modifiers for everything, and I want to take more than one job into Savage. Guess folks do it manually then, huh?

[dire prawn]

And...

Am I dumb or is there no 45 SMN ability

[twilit arch]

correct, there's no 45 smn ability

[random girder]

isnt outburst 45

[twilit arch]

its 40

[dire prawn]

The fuck do I get from 45 SMN job quest then

Just the gear?

[twilit arch]

yes

[dire prawn]

pain

[twilit arch]

and technically garuda egi

[dire prawn]

Does 35 SMN quest give me Titan-Egi

[twilit arch]

yes

[dire prawn]

Cause I see my pet ability does different things based on which Egi I have out but there's no summon for Titan or Garuda egi

Just Summon III with Ifrit-Egi

[twilit arch]

"Austerities of X" means you're getting a new egi

[random girder]

isnt there summon and summon II?

theyre different buttons

[twilit arch]

summon 1 and 2 change

[random girder]

not upgrades

[twilit arch]

when you complete 35 quest, summon 2 changes to titan egi

45 changes summon 1 to garuda

[dire prawn]

Oh

Niceu

Time to level then

[flint pollen]

any one can help me where is rematch quest to complete located and i dont need to see in the guild but some where and i need to find the quest for after rematch but google is being a pain

i got quests loaded up but it is not helping me

[random girder]

huh?

[astral bolt]

Does egi glamour change their movement?

Since they no longer float

[flint pollen]

i cant pick up the quest and my last completed is rematch and im trying to get there w/o pulling my hair out

[dire prawn]

Question

At what point in ARR leveling does gear begin to differentiate between casters and healers?

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi guys, there is a role or something else about treasure map ?
If not, if anyone knows LS or Discord about that ?

Thx you !

[random girder]

the quest is called rematch?

oh you want the next quest

[flint pollen]

yes i have that completed so im trying to get where i supposed to be after rematch

yes plz

[hollow estuary]

hello - is there a server or "general" chat in FFXIV?

[random girder]

you need to get to lv 20 in msq

"sylph management"

to unlock your job

[leaden ginkgo]

When it comes to housing & auto demo, who counts for reseting the auto demo timer when they enter ur house? Just you? Anyone on ur friends list?

[flint pollen]

that is already done

im at "all good things" that is done

[twilit arch]

for personal house, it has to be the home owner

[random girder]

questgiver for pld quest should be this

[flint pollen]

so im already beyond lvl 20 msq

[leaden ginkgo]

And I assume for FC, that means any FC member? @twilit arch

[vocal canyon]

When will data center travel be live?

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi guys, there is a role or something else about treasure map ?
If not, if anyone knows LS or Discord about that ?

Thx you !

[twilit arch]

yes, for fc houses anyone in the fc will reset the timer

[leaden ginkgo]

Ahh mkay, tysvm

[flint pollen]

got nothing on that npc in the gld guild

[random girder]

hm

[flint pollen]

i even check the chamber rule where jenys is my npc but nothing either

[hollow estuary]

are linkshells the only form of general or server chat in the game? I'm not seeing an option to join a chat of any kind

[flint pollen]

so far im getting up to lvl 30 class quest but ppl on those pages dont lay out the quests for after lvl 30

and google search is not helping since it is bought out by other ppl for their ads and all that

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi guys, there is a role or something else about treasure map ?
If not, if anyone knows LS or Discord about that ?

Thx you !

[flint pollen]

google use to be a very very good seach engine and they are nothing but almost sewage

[little swift]

!faq job

[zinc orbit]

How do I unlock my 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.

[little swift]

if you're not far enough into msq you can't do more job quests

[flint pollen]

i am already at the "All Good Things" and that ls a lvl 34 quest so im far beyond that from what im understanding

[little swift]

have you equipped your job stone

[flint pollen]

yep

[little swift]

then your job quest should be at the new trainer, not your original class guild

[flint pollen]

it is equiped and still i have confirm destination and that i dont understand

[little swift]

what job and what quest

[flint pollen]

so my last quest that i have recorded is the "Rematch"

[midnight tinsel]

What level are you

[flint pollen]

70 lol but let me explain when they opened the race hrothgar and that is when i got it and plus the token that made me to lvl 70 but im working on to catch up to lvl 70

[midnight tinsel]

What

[manic rune]

did you boost a job?

then the quests are completed for you

[midnight tinsel]

^

[flint pollen]

yep with a boost token i got from mogstation

[little swift]

if you boosted a job it completes them and you can't do tehm anymore unless its from new game plus

[flint pollen]

but im working on my msq which is at lvl 34 quest

so if it is completed then why i am on this drill

[little swift]

your class quests and job quests are completed

not your msq

!faq skips

[zinc orbit]

What does each skip do?

Tales of Adventure: <EXPACNAME> This item skips the story quests on the character you get it on to the end of the expansion listed. All the main story quests and aether current quests up to that point will be completed. It will not increase your character's job levels. Any MSQ rewards missed can be obtained at the calamity salvager or from the market board except the free fantasia, which is forfeit. You will also receive 10 silver chocobo feathers and 500k gil in platinum pieces.

Tales of Adventure: One <JOBNAME> Journey This item increases a given job to level 70. It will not skip your story progress to level 70. You cannot use this if you've already completed the level 70 job quest for that given job. You will also receive a full set of ilvl400 gear and some accessories as well as 500k gil in platinum pieces.

DISCLAIMER: DO NOT HARASS PEOPLE ABOUT WANTING TO USE/PURCHASE SKIPS

[flint pollen]

so i got to catch up with my msq ?

[flint pollen]

gee ok thx

[midnight tinsel]

Or buy msq boost

[flint pollen]

let me show yall this

[spiral inlet]

does anyone have command for 2nd eureka map

[vestal cobalt]

I love this community. Was just doing quests in idyllshire and some random guy just ups and gives me a sophic lanner.

Did some research and was stunned to find out it came from an extreme trial.

How easy is it to find groups for those trials? Are they party finder only or can you queue up for those eventually?

[boreal storm]

You can queue for them, but they’re old and people don’t know things so don’t

[fast hull]

excuse me I have a question in DR? can you esuna doom?

[twilit arch]

no

[fast hull]

can you medkit it away?

tank told me to esuna it?

[twilit arch]

the only way to deal with doom is not get hit by mecahnics in DR

[remote lintel]

@vestal cobalt what do you mean he gave you a sophic lanner whistle? how?

[boreal storm]

People usually just get lvl 80s to demolish them, so everyone can get their mount and go home

[flint pollen]

there is it the last one

[twilit arch]

its DRs way of punishing people messing up mechanics

[fast hull]

thanks

[remote lintel]

the lanners are market board prohibited and untradeable

[flint pollen]

why am i not beyond all that quest that is complete ?

[trail elk]

how many mgp do I need for the upcoming collab event in september

[remote lintel]

job quests are listed under a different category

[twilit arch]

[vestal cobalt]

[flint pollen]

[spiral inlet]

how long should I stay in 2nd eureka

[flint pollen]

oh ok then my last one would be raising the sword

[twilit arch]

you can go to pyros once you're done with pagos

pagos is the only one its recommended to delay going into because its annoying

[spiral inlet]

ok

[twilit arch]

pyros/hydatos, they more or less learned their lesson

[spiral inlet]

and my relic

[flint pollen]

so where i go from there btw i have ll the expansion so all im waiting for is endwalker

[spiral inlet]

Is the one I work on

in pagos right

with the glowy armor

[oblique yew]

[twilit arch]

glowy armour is in pyros

[oblique yew]

like e9s has the earring and waist coffer right?

[flint pollen]

btw this is the toon i made as another toon from the character page

[twilit arch]

!faq savageloot

[zinc orbit]

What floors of savage drop which items?

Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion

Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.

Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.

The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests

[flint pollen]

oh yall said that i need to work on msq to catch up

ok i think i get it now

thx all

[dire prawn]

Do I get any bonuses from having Ifrit-Egi or Titan-Egi or Garuda-Egi out

[dire prawn]

Or are they just

There

[patent citrus]

[twilit arch]

not going to change the faq because its going be like that come 6.05

[patent citrus]

I want to rake the quests multiple times and do all of them at once with 1 group

[twilit arch]

so yes, the later half of the faq doesn't affect savage at the moment

[patent citrus]

for multiples weapons

[twilit arch]

You can't sue certain skills if you don't have your egis

i.e egi assaults, can't summon bahamut or phoenix

[wide spruce]

ok! ill try these! thank you!

[late coyote]

im trying to downlaod and such and found out apparently i have a square enix accotun from 2017 i never used i know i never used it cuz i dont have ffxiv on nay platform or i have ever played it so idk what to do do i have to nmkae a new email jst for this or?

[flint pollen]

if you bought a version and all you need to do is pay your monthly sub to pick up

i get something like that when i need to renew the sub

[remote lintel]

you can either sub to the game or make an entirely new account to play the trial

[flint pollen]

yeah either way

[remote lintel]

but your accounts wont carry over

[late coyote]

guess im making a new account then :p

[flint pollen]

before you do that check on mogstation and see what you got before you shell out any ore actions

[tender estuary]

yeah I would just make a new account if you dont even remember using that old one

[flint pollen]

you can try support to see if you can get your account fix

[late coyote]

i have never played the gamre thats the thing idk why im getting the prompt :p

maybe i played another squre enix game?? idk

[tender estuary]

can you login to mog station with the credentials?

[late coyote]

but i know i have never played ffxiv

[remote lintel]

!faq mogstation

[zinc orbit]

FFXIV Mog Station

FFXIV Mog Station link

[remote lintel]

try logging in

[late coyote]

oke

[flint pollen]

there are other SE games as well to

[tender estuary]

yeah, im just curious

seems silly they would negate them being able to play the trial over having an account to play other SE titles

[late coyote]

uh i dont see anything on the site

[flint pollen]

https://square-enix-games.com/en_US/games

[tender estuary]

alright, then yeah just make a new account

[flint pollen]

if you are from usa you can see what games

[late coyote]

says free trail

[tender estuary]

so you dont remember creating the account to try the trial in the past?

[flint pollen]

it is apparent that you registered but did not play

[tender estuary]

you should be able to just login and play from the launcher with those credentials

[late coyote]

i know i never played i have no stuff on my pc of anything final fintasy related

[remote lintel]

ps4?

[late coyote]

i played on it before but didint play final fantasy

actually i played 15 i think it was? but that was offline

[remote lintel]

maybe you made an account without knowing

[late coyote]

so idk how thats would interfere with ffxiv

[remote lintel]

either way you can just make a new one

[late coyote]

damn

well cheers guys

[flint pollen]

yeah you can make a new account on the free trail but it has a lot of restrictions and up to lvl 60

but if you want to play beyond 60 then you will need to sub the game

[late coyote]

yeah i figured it would but id rather actually feel the game you know

[outer star]

Then a free trial is perfect

[flint pollen]

agree

[desert radish]

Is there a place where I can go to see all Glamour options and what they look like

[flint pollen]

also the good thing for free trail you can try out some classes while you have another main account with a main class

that may help you to some degree

[flint pollen]

just to let you know how this game is you have a msq ( main story quest) and a class quest which are call jobs

followed through this and it is a part of the game

the game is based on msq and class quests follow up

[dire prawn]

So

Just unlocked SCH

Am I blind or is there no difference between Eos and Selene?

[late coyote]

[flint pollen]

[shrewd cradle]

This is a odd one, I slightly tweaked some display and graphics settings and now I get exactly half the FPS when 72 is selected

[leaden ginkgo]

what's the best way to farm bitter memories of dying besides running antitower?

[shrewd cradle]

like when I select 144, I get 71

this is so odd, anyone has any ideas?

[naive ridge]

is that the one you need 6 of?

[leaden ginkgo]

yep

[naive ridge]

anti-tower is pretty fast, if you have a tank, go as a tank, the enemies are weak and you can easily pull wall to wall.

[oblique yew]

is the twine a guaranteed drop from e11s?

[dire prawn]

Bro

Are you blind

[shrewd cradle]

there are several, go towards the market and you'll see few on each side

when you go to the main aetherite, head towards the shops

[dire prawn]

Teleport to Limsa, head West and as soon as you're under the archway look left

It's the closest MB to any aetheryte which is why there's like over 100 people in Limsa at any given time

[oblique yew]

it's at hawkers alley

!faq savageloot

[zinc orbit]

What floors of savage drop which items?

Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion

Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.

Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.

The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests

Uhh

What

Alright

Anyways

[open ember]

Permanently or temporarily

[remote lintel]

@fast hull if you transferred to another server then youre not on famfrit

[fast hull]

I mean the server is shutting down in 12 for maintenance

can I bypass that?

[remote lintel]

possibly

you can certainly try

[dire prawn]

Wait there's more maintenance coming?

[fast hull]

no I am from Lamia XD

in famrit

[remote lintel]

then get out of famfrit or youll probably be stuck

[manic rune]

[jovial quarry]

If it’s only Famfrit, then yes. As long as you’re not on Famfrit when it goes down, you’ll be fine.

[dire prawn]

Oh is it just Famfrit going down?

[remote lintel]

yes

[fast hull]

On Jun. 24, 2021 from 12:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. (PDT), emergency maintenance will be performed on Famfrit World. Please log out of Famfrit World before the maintenance begins.

it’s only affecting famfrit

I believe if you go to Famfrit while maintenance is happening on Famfrit you're stuck there

[fast hull]

ok just a weird question thanks for the help

[vital ruin]

which of the arr beast tribes is worth doing

[dire prawn]

All of them?

[gritty falcon]

I'm at the start of 3.X and my jobs are all around lv 60. Between Leveling, MSQ, and Alliance Raids roulettes, what order are those three in terms of time vs exp efficiency?

[open ember]

Leveling, Alliance and MSQ roulette are the best sources of EXP

[dire prawn]

Alliance Raids > Leveling > Trials > MSQ > Normal Raids

[remote lintel]

if all your jobs are at lvl 60 and youre at the start of HW then why are you trying to level more

[vital ruin]

I'll need to start with one

[dire prawn]

They're at the start of post-HW

[vital ruin]

which has the better dye and storyline?

[remote lintel]

oh

im illiterate

[naive ridge]

Levelling is best if you are lucky and get the highest possible level dungeon for your job

[boreal storm]

That’s kinda subjective

[gritty falcon]

I guess since roulettes are a limited resource and we only get one of each daily, I wanna know which one I should be prioritizing, if I can only play, say, an hour on a given day

[vital ruin]

need an opinion

[manic rune]

levelling, alliance, trials is what i do

[remote lintel]

you dont need to level so much when SB starts at 60

[naive ridge]

MSQ takes the longest to complete if you get praetorium

but you get a bunch of poetics if you need them for gear

[dire prawn]

You can do Alliance Raid and Daily Leveling within that hour, Trials as well if you get a Crystal Tower raid because they're short

[manic rune]

those 3 are the most efficient exp for time spent generally

[remote lintel]

trials takes like 5 mins anyway

frontline roulette also gives a decent amount

[vital ruin]

what's the difference between allied and bloodsworn rank

[remote lintel]

one is higher

[limpid glacier]

what's a good website for ffxiv ressources?

[vital ruin]

which do i need for the sable mask

[remote lintel]

what kind of resources

[remote lintel]

you need all beast tribes at the highest rank iirc

[vital ruin]

what's the highest rank for arr

[limpid glacier]

is there no all in one go for everything?

[boreal storm]

Ixal go to 7, or is it 8

[vital ruin]

F

[naive ridge]

Allied requires a quest that is done after you have maxed out all rep in that expansion

[boreal storm]

But ixal gain more rep per quest than the others, so it balances out

[naive ridge]

a series of quests rather.

[remote lintel]

@limpid glacier do you mean guides for content? guides for crafting/gathering? or like a database on where to find stuff?

[limpid glacier]

first and later

[jovial quarry]

Highest rank is 4, I believe, for all ARR tribes excluding Ixal, which is 7. But once you finish the allied quest that follows, all max out at 8.

[remote lintel]

for content guides i just look up mtqcapture on youtube

the lodestone website is a database for everything but i find gamerescape wiki easier to navigate

[vital ruin]

ohh

[naive ridge]

garlandtools is a better database

[limpid glacier]

I'll look that up, thanks

[vital ruin]

ixal is the crafting beast tribe?

[remote lintel]

garlandtools redirects to gamerescape

[naive ridge]

yea but its easier to access

gamerscapes takes longer to load

[vital ruin]

where's the kobolt beast tribe

[remote lintel]

yeah gamerescape and their geriatric website

[vital ruin]

thanks
