Alot of the job quest stories ended at 70
No need to continue them
Which is why they went with role quests
less that and moreso it takes a lot of resources for them to do 17 (soon to be 19) separate stories
That's ALOOOOOOT of work
nah
No they get rid of some to make room
my hotbar is gona literally run out of space
or collapse certain abilities
and evolve other ones
We haven't really "gained" abilities
like with geriskogul and red jerryskullgirl
Yo! I hope you all be well! I wanna ask some questions about starting up ff14 with a friend and was wondering if I could chat with anyone about it đ
thats what this channel is for yes
And #beginner-lounge for discussion at length
so for like my DRK, are like those 2 new shadow abilities not new?
Edge and flood? They're upgrades to the darkness versions
yea
And didn't exist prior to this expac
they replace the low level versions yes
so are they like just damage upgrades?
yep
also for my plunge ability
I was told I get 2 charges
but i only get 1
why is that
78
I see
Anyone tips to get more silver chests on palace of the ded?
thats weird cause my GNB has 2 charged already
Everyone seems to not care that I need them
on it's distance covering move
it's just a Weird Tank Thingâ˘ď¸
They get them at different times
DRK is short shafted when it comes to leveling
because all the QoL stuff is backloaded
chests in potd are random
And look, on the bright side you aren't a PLD which doesn't even get a gap closer until level 76

eh, close enough
plunge is level 54
Whatâs GNB?
for 2 charges
gunbreaker
Rough divide
gnb is 56, so they have it by default
!action Onslaught
Ye
Ty
when do warrior and paladin gain their second charge
It feels nice having a jump in as a tank
neither get a second charge
i thought all tanks had a second charge
Itâs neat in bozja
Blood rageeee
Its not garbo
It has 5 yalms more range and isn't forced to be used for damage so it doesn't overcap
Are out of game macros allowed? I have some wrist issues so im trying to make some basic dps rotation macros in game but lets just say the in game macro system isnt very good
Free trial is up to lvl 60, does that mean that I can lvl every class to 60 in trial?
You would have to use a third party tool, but be careful not to tread the line of botting
Yes
All the FT classes yeah
yes with the exception of the classes after HW
Gotcha thanks guys
Yeah, that's nice
yes
You get a big no symbol on your exp bar
rip
Get those DOH/DOLs up while you have all the time in the world
Is it accurate that you can go from a SE trial account to a Steam Paid account?
Yep
Hello i have a question regarding "road to 70" buff
Say if my friend returns to the game after a year of absence, while he still being under lvl50 - will he still get the buff for the exp boost, he did had it before?
Has to be a fresh character
i see. Also, does it last for 1 month or 90days?
Which usually changes each patch
What is the general consensus on who becomes the main-tank in an 3 alliance raid? Whoever pulls first?
Only Japan has alliance raid mt etiquette
to get road to 70, you must create char on new/preferred server? Or it also counts for just fresh character?
does anyone know how to fix the directx 11 crashing
Is there an updated guide for ARR relic or is this the newest one? https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/b4zoqf/the_way_to_zeta_in_45/
!faq zodiac
Yes
Ok ty
try playing in borderless
how long does 2.55 roughly take?
nope, still crashing
Update your drivers
what is your hardware?
and how long have you played before without crashing?
I got a GEforce GTX 1650 and it crash in 5 minutes or as soon as it loads
Hi, i've just finshed ARR MSQ and got my dragoon to lvl57. Wondering what gear should i go for
Maiming?
Ironworks ilvl 130
In mor dhona
Just do lv50/60/70 content
Hi, I hope some of you can help me. I have a test account and a char on LV40 now. I think I like the game and I bought the full version already. But now to the problem. I have done a mistake and connect the Game key with a new and different account. Not with the one which I have already used for the test version. Is it now possible to merge the two account? Basically it is not possible to use the game key a second time which I have already tested. In the end it would mean I have to level a new char? ? đ
You can now unlock a ton of 50 content
You get many poetics doing msq
I see
No
how old is cid in arr ?

No what?
You can't merge accounts

damn those white hairs lul
So I need a favor from someone if thatâs alright. Iâm trying to power level an secondary class (Thaumaturgist) and am following a guide that recommends having a high leveled friend one shot the monsters on the hunting log.
Right when I beat RR, my main friend went on vacation and wonât be back for sometime. Would it be possible if someone could assist me?
My server is Jenova and I am on PS4
you can just
you know
kill some mobs
for your hunting log
why do you need a friend ?
do a fate
Itâs fine to hunt it yourself
maybe do a leve
Thatâs what I did
Oh no.....:(
More or less just to speed up the process. According to the guide, I can steamroll through them all in 30 mins and reach level 15. Then I could grind dungeons
yeah, get your healer chocobo out and just start killing
with healer chocobo, you can eaisly kill mobs 5 levels above yours
Healer chocobos make FATEs easy to grind.
gysahl yeah
To summon it yes
One green = 30m of chocobo.
@leaden ginkgo tbh in the time you spent asking and waiting for someone to carry youd probably be lvl 15 soon xD
Can you buy greens?
Also @midnight tinsel currently working on something else. Iâm asking now to set something up for later
Do I have to reach sb to play
I have it I am not on trial
Then you need to buy shadowbringers
I bought shadowbringers as well
Did you install it?
Well you haven't registered or installed it
Did you let it install like we said earlier?
My account in mogstation already says I own all expansions
But did you install it
Then you need to fully close the game
Yes
So exit game the go back in right
how do i start the heavensward msq?
Keep doing the story
It's all linear
Gotta beat all of ARR msq
ive gotten to the credits, is there more arr after that?
Yep
Yes
Yep
You beat BASE arr
80 quests
Youâre in what we call âpatch questsâ
80 msq plus hard primal fights and crystal tower raids
damn is that why they barely give any xp
Damn thats a lot
Yep
HW after sets a better pace
Itâs like only 40 quests but it feels like 20 after base HW
if i own shadowbringers do i get stormblood as well?
Yep
Yes
If you on the FT you need to buy the complete edition
i finished most of the base arr then got shadowbringers and the base edition in the steam sale
alright thanks for your help
Hi, quick question, what would you say is the best way to queue up for bahamut coil? Neither duty finder nor party finder seem to be working
Say itâs a first timer party, they love first timer coils
did that already
Where in the party finder do i make it unsynced?
Is there an option or something
In your duty finder window select the âď¸ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
thank you
Levemete is must complete or?
Not for combat jobs
No
Save if for later when youâre doing crafting stuff
This might sound dumb but I got incredibly drunk last night while playing FFXIV, and I think I might have been warned by a GM in DMs
Is there a way to tell?
If you were warned you would be in jail
And a gm talk directly to you
Even verbal warnings (lowest punishment apparently?) involve Gaol?
Hmm, interesting
If it's constant and considered harassment to the victim
I must have dreamed it then, or prob my friend Fizz is a troll & tends to DM me GM text sometimes
Wait, wym?
Is that what they give the warning out for?
Am v. hung over, brain no work atm

At level 60, the 270 items, do tank jobs want custodial or conservator or pankrias?
hi folks and ? im on my puglist but something about the bootshine to what ever on the quest " harder than rock "
how do you get the ranks above Captain in the GC?
You dont
just more Squadrons?
They don't exist
ah
Basically if you're a dick and harassing someone for being trash and using foul language they can slap you
But one day they will (maybe)
Where is arcanist guild?
Limsa
I'm at lancer starting zone
limsa
so nowhere close as I cant find it xD
do your MSQ
You go there at Lv15 story
I have just unlocked Wondrous Tails and I do not understand it. Does this mean that if I finish everything to get all the seals, I will get the exp?
yeh, noticed
do people still make groups for demi ozma?
you need to do 9 activities to get stickers
Yes BA discords still run
once you've placed all 9 you can turn it in to khloe for rewards
So the 1, 2, 3 lines are just the cherries on top?
You can use second chance points to either reset an activity to do it again for another sticker (it will make a different activity completed), or you can reroll your current sticker set up to try for 1-2-3 lines
whilst the 9 seals is the cake?
you can only reroll between 3-7 stickers
does ff14 support 144fps and dx12?
9 seal is guaranteed reward
So usually, what should I reroll?
at 7 usually
generally would reroll at 7
pretty sure there's a guide at faq
Your sticker placement to get at least a line
is it faq wondrous trail?
but im a bit too lazy to bother with it so just go with what i got đ
And hope those last 2 stickers donât screw you
No
You can choice to shuffle your sticker locations at 7 stickers
For 2 second chance points
To try and get a line or two
Oh, the seals given is random?
Yes
You can use 1 chance point to redo a task, but it will invalidate 1 task at random for it
ANY of the tasks that I hav ecomplete?
Can I not do all 16 of the tasks?
Nope
Only 9
Thatâd be cheating
Whatever 9 end up happening as you do your business
So after I get 9 seals from Khloe, which will be given to me at random, I will have to solve it and website like this one will make it easier for me to find the 3 lines? http://ffxiv.morpheusz.com/p/wondrous-tails-solver.html
Click to add / remove seals ( 0 / 9) Shuffle Recommendation Strategy: 1 line maximum chance 2 lines m...
yeah it means, getting 3 lines is VERY rare đ
there's a wondrous trail faq here right?
I do not know
Sorry for spamming
But I guess I gained some clarity of it
Thanks!
I was just wondering why people starting to explain manually, usually just type the kupo bots faq xD
!faq wondroustails
Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
oh it's spammy I get it
sometimes i forget about faqs ok....
large post, lol
also the fact its a chonker doesn't help :d
Oh, I can't put the seals manually?
no
No
Damn
But I can choose which seal to redo?
No
can't
You won't lose that seal
Youll redo a task, which will give a new seal
so if you are lazy and want to redo ramuh 9 tims, you can use all 9 second chance for that
but typically
so I can get 9 seals at first, redo 9 with ramuh?
no
You can't do anything at 9 seaks
I end up with 18 seals altogether or 9 random seals?
you can only reroll between 3-7 seals
once you hit 9 seals, you can only turn in
does the pre purchase standard addition come with the exp boost?
usually you do the instance, get 7 marked, use second chance to reroll till there's 1 line or follow the pattern above
Oh, so I can get up to 9 seals but the only time for me to change/chance them is between 3-7 seals as the moment I get 9 seals, the Wondrous Tails is sealed?
yes, preordering standard or collector's comes with the exp earrings
Yes
Get 7 stickers, try to shuffle for a line... Finish up and pray for more
Guess I will go and unlock all Extremes then
How does one even get a gold cert
3 lines
RNG
VERY rare
It says silver?
but if you follow the pattern above, you can have more chance
It gets expanded at 80
Oh only at 80
With the 3rd column
okok cool
When should I join a free company?
Whenever
On what lvl I can use mounts?
Whenever, theyâre mostly a social thing
is there benefits? im only lvl 20
buffs usually and weekly event
Msq lvl 20
social stuffs as Yilmaz said
just hitted 20
msq
FCs can run 24-hour buffs of various types like bonus combat/crafting/gathering experience, small boost to crafter/gatherer stats, and a bunch of other stuff
You can get it after joining a grand company
Not everything needs a faq, especially if it only needs 2-3 sentences to tell.
Just had to ask
so so everything i ask is msq lvl, ok ok
We are literally not kidding when. We say story locks literally EVERYTHING

hey everyone got a question, i am in the process of doing the relic weapon quest (started the game a week ago), the way i understand it is: i am starting with a Zodiac weapon and have to upgrade it all the way to Zeta, now my question in the follow up expansion there is the Anima Weapons, do i need to have a fully upgraded Zodiac weapon in order to get the Anima weapon?
No
is there recommended starting crafting job or it doesent matter?
it helps with the step
All at once
No all relics are separate
@faint flare so i can basically skip them all till the one that i get in the last expansion?
Yes
Itâs only there for glam at this point
thanx guys
How long does it usually take to have new space for a world? Or never ?
!faq serverlock
if it's congested, never
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.
Idk what congested server is but for me it's Twintania in Eu
So i have to wait around 1AM
its peak time now
There's no congested servers
Iâve just unlocked the trust system after the dungeon in ShB but how do I select okd dungeons to use it with? In the trust selection box I can pick the characters but not any scenario?
Why doesn't this work? It wont show on other classes
Only shadowbringers story dungeons are trust able
Elo I have a question. I did abandon "Primal Awakening" where I didn't made any of Binding Coil of Bahamut.
But I can't find it now (the npc don't give me the quest) and in the quest log it says that I already did it but the next quest dont also appears
what can I do ? ::
just guessing since it's weekend
Ohhhhh. Oh thatâs disappointing haha. I need to practice my other jobs etc as Iâve been away for a while. I was excited about doing my faves with the NPCs. Okay well then. Better progress MSQ. Thanks @faint flare
you need to clear turn 5 to pick the next quest
Alright thank you for info
Nobody know how to make other class hotbars visible while in another class?
/characterconfig -> hotbar setting
If someone called me "Dick" and i reported this. Will they get a ban?
you won't know
They'll get sent to jail eventually and be forced to change their name
Thanks!
I reported someone during Alliance Raid because that guy was angry for nothing and most of us Asian players just woke up around 9am-ish and this is what I get
the "angry for nothing" is basically cursing others with the f-word for not clicking on the accept button when queued popped
Not like that. I want to make it so this arcanist bar can be shown on a different hotbar while in another job
Sad. The player really ruined my day
I can help you with that
Something like this
yeah that's in the setting
Just turn on sharing
No
just tick sharing
Turn OFF sharing
In hotbar configuration
Oh
Yeah turn on sharing
Unless you want it to stick to only ACN bar without it also showing to others
This is my "dynamic" hotbars
Do I have to make sure the ACN bar is on a sharing one? This wont work currently
don't need that macro
Alright I'll swap the ACN from 1 to 5, since my 1-4 are class specific for skills
But you don't need this macroes if you just want them to be shared
How do I get to Shirogane? Is it in the Stormblood expansion or is it housing?
Yes it's in stormblood
Shirogane is the housing ward in Kugane which is in Stormblood expansion
@young steppe which do I turn sharing off for? The hotbar with the skills on I want to copy over, or the hotbar where I want those skills to appeaR?
Are command missions with the GC a) easy to access or need a lot of prep and b) useful for practicing jobs with NPCs or kinda rubbish? I have a lot of learning/refreshing to do and I donât want to do it all with randoms in duty cos itâll be annoying for them (as experience with me being terrible at SCH showed recently)
I see. Not that my FC's house is in shirogane, but I was just curious.
Is Gangos also a housing ward?
You lost me there
is there a way to update my glamour plate on the fly?
or do i need to go to an inn
@young steppe This is what I wanna do and that's my current macro. How would I go around making this possible?
Gotta go to the inn
ahh ok
Just turn sharing on for Hotbar 10 and run the macro
Okay thanks. I am trying to switch from PC to PS5 as well so Iâm extra clunky so trust/squadrons will be useful even if just to practice my controls. Iâll have a look at setting them up. Fab!
@faint flare Nothing happens
Do i get a ban if i told someone they're reported?
No.
No
What's better, block strength or block rate?
Good
why would you want tell someone that they are reported?
Doesn't matter
You'll understand more watching this video, hard for me to explain : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2M7-1-EzWI&ab_channel=DesperiusFFXIV
After revisiting and reworking my whole UI/Interface setup last week, I thought it is time to share with you, the changes and ideas, that lead to this final version, where only your ideas are able to help me improving it.
Therefore, I would love to see your setups and ideas for the cleanest UI in Eorzea, so share your impressions in our Discord...
Super noob question: but do NA and EU people get to play together? Or is World choice largely irrelevant?
Eww desperiaus
You play with people on the same Data centre
yall just dunking on desp for no reason now lol
Meara's quick and dirty guide to macroing hotbars! (Patent Pending) So youâre here because you want to perform cool wizardry with macros, you want your hotbars to change on a dime? Well youâve come to the right place. This guide will be broken down into different sections going over all the diff...
Desperiaus is actually bad and often wrong
@young steppe I've seen their vids but their other class hotbars are in the locations already so they just display them. I'm trying to copy it to a different hotbar number instead
the only mildly good thing ive seen from desperius is him teaching people about nvidia filters
Iâm glad Iâm not the only one who noticed that
Great, thanks Vinyl
I don't know about that, I don't often watch his video
I only look for cleaner UI and that pops
do you know what the balance discord is
Is Gangos a housing ward? If so, where is it located.
No
its not
It's for Shadowbringers relic stuff
lv 80 relic area
Desperius too much jibber jabber for my taste but whatever info he got that I find useful I'll take it, the rest I ignore
Ah, a part of Norvrandt that I did not unlock yet I take it
he makes things up and then doesnt correct it
It's on the source
people say ping icarus but no one ever pings me đ
But you need shadowbringers Completed and the stormblood 24mans done as well
i am afraid
of what, im the nicest guy i know
I tried to but mobile never showed your name on the list ;-;

because i'm secret đ
Not just the MSQ, but the quest that bears the expansion's name
Well if yoy want everything relating to shadowbringers relics, yoy need 5.4 story completed for Zadnor
Where's the picture with all the acronyms and stuff for beginners
!faq newplayertips
haven't seen that since I started playing last year
thank you
can't believe it still exist
Thats why it wouldnt show. It needed to be share not 'current'
And to unlock the Shadowbringers Alliance Raids. I don't know if the quest that bears the expansion's name has to be completed first.
what's the point of the weekly quest after paradigm's breach?
heh
and the orchestrion rolls hehe
After 6 weeks you get music and a title
got it, thanks
What's the command to make the macro a toggle? Where pressing it once makes stuff appear then pressing it again makes whatever the macro do vanish
Donât put on/off in the line
That makes it act like a toggle
So it would be /hotbar display 10
ahh
Mine is 'current' 8 because it is not shared and empty and it just copies ROG 6 since that is also not shared
display on and off
like so
And for the Shadowbringers MSQ. Two dungeons in tandem. First of which is Amaurot. Then The Dying Gasp.
Dungeon and trial
okay i've got two questions: 1. Do I need to be by a teleport crystal thing to teleport to another one? 2. When can I queue for dungeons?
Help needed!!! I cant open my game. Im getting this error message.
No and lv16 story
Unlock location by clicking on the aetheryte crystal
Press M to open map and click on said crystal to teleport to them
Or use the teleport skill
lol now I feel dumb for going to the crystal every time I want to teleport lmao
There's a teleport skill?
Huh since when
where are things like sprint and teleport to put them back to my hotbar?
Forever
Oh right this
Can you log onto the mogstation and take a screenshot of everything that appears in this image?
I totally forgot about that for I am too used to opening map lol
cause I can't remember the locations at all
Press P
General section of actions
thanks
as a general rule, should I be going for chest pieces with hood or hat + chest pieces?
Assuming equal level theyâre basically the same stats
whatever has better stats
ah okay
the hood is kind of annoying when comparing upgrades, though
lol, fiiiine

I originally wanted mine to be like that but with ACN 1 which isn't a shared hotbar but it wouldnt work for whatever reason?
why do my hotbars disappear when their not shared?
oh youre talking about exactly that
Cause they're not shared between jobd
ye but I set them up on my first and only job
Are you launching from the SE launcher or steam?
SE Launcher
That's why
You need to launch from Steam, as your account is steam.
You MUST use steam
At the very top of your image, the âStandard (Steam)â
This is gonna sound stupid but how the hell do you get Notoriety on BSF ?
Donât get picked when you sign up for a duel
by failing to be chosen for a duel
Accept a duel and don't get picked
Sec in potd
never signed up for one, makes sense
Do undersized dungeons give the same XP to someone whos the same level requirement as the dungeon as if they were running it legit?
all notoriety does is increase the chance of you getting into a duel next time you sign up for one
Undersize gives no experience.
Isnât that only when unsynced?
it's the same thing
Undersized is unsync
undersize = unsync
Oh, I thought that meant something else sry
ahem, technically... âď¸
you can undersize but still sync
But 99.9% of the time, when people say undersized, they also mean unsynced
yes but only insane people (or blus) do that 
Okay, try this. Unshare ALL except for Hotbar 9 and 10. Change text to current 8.
I think I figured it out. I had to unshare hotbar 10 and it works
but i run into another problem
Starting my journey with the free trial today, but I'm a bit confused on the datacenter and world stuff. I've got two US friends who play on the Aether data center (not sure which worlds), but I live in Europe. Would it be really laggy or something compared to the European data center? Also, if it is unplayable can I change the datacenter I'm playing on after rebooting the game?
It will be laggy
!faq checkping
- Open CMD (Windows key + R, Type CMD and hit enter)
- Type: ping -n 20 [Datacenter ip address] without the brackets
- Press enter
PD: To check your Datacenter IP adress go to https://arrstatus.com/
can't say whether or not it'll be unplayable lag
Check you ping here
@young steppe Is there a way to make it so when I'm currently on Mount hotbar 1, when I press mount hotbar 2 it doesn't close the hotbar 10?
I still wanna make it so if I press the macro button again it closes the hotbar but it closing when I swap between them is what I want to fix
not everyone has the luxury of having a DC near where their physical loc is
You can make characters on multiple data centers no problem, but you won't be able to move your guy from Aether to a European DC without paying money
people in BR/RU
Is UI stuff saved locally or server side?
pretty sure they still do well, but not sure if you found it comfortable
Local
But with the free trial I can not create two characters and put them on different data centers right?
You can
I can have multiple characters with one account in the free trial?
That's kinda dope
Yup
Change the current 10 on Mount Hotbar 2 to current 9 instead

I want it to be on hotbar 10 because I need to the base 10 hotbar positions for where I want the macro stuff on each to appear. Otherwise I'll run out of hotbars if I have to stack multiple on each other
Because, if you click on the macro "Mount Hotbar 2" as you previously clicked on "Mount Hotbar 1", it will replace your CURRENT hotbar 10 that you have copied from "Mount Hotbar 1" to "Mount Hotbar 2"
160 ms to Aether lol
What you can do is choose another class (i.e. ROG, MRD, GLD, etc)
Then create "dropdown macros" like mine which I had previously shown
Decently laggy but not unplayable
That ms is the norm for SEA when we play on OCE WoW
but wow and ffxiv are different game
True but ms is ms
for ffxiv lag, what's the best way to determine if it's your pc or your connection?
are there job actions that replace a old one to a better version or do I need to bind them all
So 160ms should still be fine?
depends on the action
Mostly for casters and healers, but yes.
some upgrade some dont
try it yourself, mannny people have much higher ping
and they can clear hardest content
I'm always screaming at people in online games with insane high pings and now I'm becoming one of them lmao
I'm trying to switch to AST and I'm overwhelmed by how many actions there are
why do you scream at them?
All the malefics are one action, same for combust
I still have a recording of me playing rainbow six siege against someone with insane high ping, where you can see him teleporting around, me hitting him and him killing me lol
annoying af
it's different game, man. FPS do requires low ping
@wispy shell What I can tell you is to do this:
Baseline Hotbar 10 | |__ Hotbar 9 | |__ Mount Hotbar 1 | |__ Hotbar 8 |__ Mount Hotbar 2
fair enough
Is subscription time counts the offline time too?
Yes
Okay
No its not
MMO w/ 150ping and I was raiding M raids and M+15 dungeons with 2k rating RBG is doable, its even more doable in this game which has less APM needed unless you spam those oGCDs altogether
Many play through steam
This is my first ever MMO. I have literally no idea what you're saying lol
WoW stuffs, its water under the bridge
I've always been interested in MMOs and love Final Fantasy so ye
WoW never caught my attention
Good choice, dont leave
Played WoW a long time ago, but meh
but wow is bad af right now
The only reason I stayed was because of friends but now they are married and have no time to play, I play FFXIV for solo stuffs mostly lol
I also remember playing some wow panda game or something a long time ago. Weird af
WoW is only good if you have 20~ friends who are close knit with you and competitive af
If not, it's stale
where can i ask for an alchemist to craft something for me?
and blizzard is trolling hard right now
pvp sure
I don't typically want dropdown menus, I wanna have 1 menu which is always visible then buttons which branch off to show/hide others while also flicking between different layouts for it. Hopefully my terrible doodle makes it more understandable
but 90% of people dont care about pvp in wow
Funnily enough, PvP gearing is easier now
x_x, please discuss it in another channel
But yeah, water under the bridge
I added a 4th hotbar
but unlike the first 3 it's static...it doesn't change when I change jobs
how can I make it change with jobs
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_63zLn_Bm7kyuHihEdpcTx2oRSJU2RBrUjGAaCxZSNM/edit?usp=sharing have you read this
Meara's quick and dirty guide to macroing hotbars! (Patent Pending) So youâre here because you want to perform cool wizardry with macros, you want your hotbars to change on a dime? Well youâve come to the right place. This guide will be broken down into different sections going over all the diff...
got it
Turn off sharing in character configuration > hotbars
Okay, do me a favour @wispy shell and do this macro
Which numbers do I replace with mine
That macro itself will show the bar 9 and 8
Aah give me a sec, in PotD
just popped
Hey ! Im new on the game and i have a question pls. I want to play Dancer, so do i need to play my Marauder to the lvl 60 to accept the quest for dancer ? Is the lvl of Marauder lock to 60 or can i XP my Marauder lvl 70 ?
Any job to 60
ok thx u !!
All jobs cap at 80 if you own the expansions
ok so its nice to pex a character lvl 70 for the new second job from Endwalker dlc ?
Reaper
Endwalker jobs will need lv70 on any job
im on the timeworn artifact part of the relic grind. iirc didnt they make it so DR gives more artifacts or is 1/run?
3 per run
DR gives 3 now
ok so i can pex a Paladin to the level 70 and wait for the new extension ?
Since Tuesday
neat, ill queue up and die then
Just use your warrior or dancer
@faint flare that is sort of what I want, except with the gif part, when I press say the tank icon again while on the tank page. I want it to close. but if im on the tank page and click the dps page, i just want to swap to dps page without it closing
okk thx u ! i'll go back to farm so !
Your dancer will be at 80 if you want to play that so it already fulfils the conditions for endwalker jobs
ooooh ok ! now i understand
Folks ? where you can hire the retianer in ul'dah ???
Near the market board, retainer vocates
It's very random
that is the first think pops up
Possibly weighted randomness, but we don't know if it is
oop wrong channel 
Retainer VOCATES
Not the summoning bell
what npc ?
i im the sapphire plac
ok
Theyâre the icon thatâs two faces on the map
how did the raids in previous expansions work when it came to handing out the items needed for gear? Is it similar to now where you do either Titan/Shiva/Eden's Promise once a week and you get a item for it?
Okay I understand what you want to do
Have you figured it out yet
This hotbar 5 should be SHARED
Not yet but this seems like the best solution for it I can find. It doesn't close the back swapping between mount hotbar 1 and 2 but allows it to be closed still
/hotbar copy THM 1 current 2
/hotbar display 2 on
/wait 7
/hotbar display 2 off
This macro will tell you to copy THM 1 on the current hotbar 2 and will display 2 on and after 7 seconds it will go off
Create 4 macros from THM 1 to 4
I wanted to make a smart closing the hotbar button, where if the macro is still on that macro screen then pressing the button would close it, otherwise it would ignore the close part and open up the new hotbar instead
You want it to be permanently on?
hang on
Create 4 of them from THM 1 to 4
What the macro does is that, in the 1st line
/hotbar copy THM 1 current 2
This will create a hotbar that copies from THM 1 over to your current hotbar 2, it just copies and paste and have yet to show itself
/hotbar display 2 on
This line will show your current hotbar 2 (WHICH YOU HAVE COPIED FROM PREVIOUS LINE)
/wait 7
This will wait for 7 seconds
/hotbar display 2 off
This will close the current hotbar 2
Make sure your hotbar 2 is not shared for if it's shared it won't work
what was the order of ironwork gear again? weapon-body-legs-accessories?
Weapon > Chest/Legs > Head/Hands/Feet > Belt & Accessories
For the one on the right
/hotbar copy ACN 1 current 3 /hotbar display 3 on /wait 7 /hotbar display 3 off
@wispy shell
I am going to queue for PotD now
How do I know if I'm doing the right quests? I've just been doing all the recommended from the top left corner.
That is the right quest
Yes those are right
- 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.
Thank goodness.
isn't important but just do it if you have OCD
What is OCD?
You still do
@young steppe Basically like this, I'm trying to stop it from closing the hotbars when I swap between them.
OH OCD I'm an idiot
You will not unlock Job-related skills though
how do i know what materia i should be putting in what gear for lets say crafting?
or can you not make smart macros like that?
Depends specifically on what youâre trying to craft
You do but the scaling at that low level isn't that good
Like hunting logs are faster until lv15
Unlike combat classes crafters and gatherers donât have a singular BiS set
Cause they're just faster to do
ohh ok, more than likely i would try to go for being able to craft endgame stuff
Oh, there's no conditionals in FFXIV Macros
The closest you can do is this
Geez. How am I to defeat Therion? The last boss in Amaurot. Deathly Ray always gets in my way and I do not know when it gets fired.
You can't put else/if in FFXIV macro
You just move out of them
best I can do is either make it delay and close automatically, or make a dedicated button to closing it then?
yes
The heads spawn so you just get ready to move
dang
I know what you want to do lol but yeah there's no conditional in FFXIV macro
Alright ill try work something around that now
If you get ready to move like real quick, you'll only take a little bit of chip. If your healer has like 24% of their brain active, you should be fine.
hey
can anyone help me out with levelling
im seeing on the guide it recommends someone following you around
and one shotting stuff
It isnt needes
Hello there. I'm having an issue as a rogue in the lvl 25 class quest Sweet Sorrows, "Unable to commence cutscene" can someone help ?
Did you not change your class to Rogue?
I'm a rogue right now!
it's kind of annoying to have to enter my password every time I open the ff launcher
any way to get around it?
!faq quicklauncher
This does it
very cool, ty
Ugh. The last boss is too hard. Doing it with a trust is not an easy feat.
It's not
Just move
Deathly ray barely does damage unless you literally just don't moce
You'll take 2 ticks minimum
Is there like a "checklist" on what i should do everyday as a new player. Im coming from wow and im on lvl 40 and wondering if theres like dailys i should do already
hello guys!
Only daily roulettes for now at your level
Weeklies are a cap thing
I'm really stuck at this quest, I'm in no party, tried switching class, disconnecting, abandoning quest, unequiping all gear in case I needed to wear something special, it doesn't work and the npc takes like 3 sec before I'm unable to commence cutscene
I know I have to move when the ray is fired. But I don't know when the deathly ray is going to be fired. I got less than 30 minutes left to complete it.
what is the quest
how can i play without a registration code? i just want to try the trial.
Thanks
whats daily roulettes?
The literal first thing you see on duty finder
Its the expansions name
Watch the cast bar. If heads spawn on the side they're about to fire so be ready to moce
If he casts it then it's firing at someone randomly in a line
Just pay attention
And move
Don't dick around
Wrong launcher
!faq freetrial
What's the fastest way to spiritbond aesthete's crafting gear?
@vast holly
Craft 3-4 star crafting materials
oh thanks!!
Thanks!
If you have your squadron leveled, you can run weekly missions to gain spiritbonding scrolls, which should boost spiritbonding by 10%.
my sound randomly went off?
I did it!!!!
Is Glamour per armour or per slot? Like if I glamour chest then get a new chest, will i lose my Glamour?
You apply a glamour to an item
You don't lose items
On PC? Kinda common. Not sure of the cause myself but restart anyways
k, thanks
You donât lose the glamour, but you have to cast it again
since youâre casting on the item, not the slot
is it just me or does clicking the box underneath the password box not work? i feel like i have marked it every time i log in to the store
I had the same issue with the remember username box for a while. Definitely a site bug for that, might be the same for you. I donât know any fixes, though.
I'm having a lot of trouble with the download
Its not cracking 1 megabyte a second
My download speed is 20-25 megabytes a second
It took a whole day to download the free trial
ANd now that I bought the game its doing another day long download
Hi, I started playing yesterday and now I'm considering buying full version. But before i invest my time into game i want to be sure that buying and paying for subscription is worth it.
After doing some research, my only question is how limited are cosmetic items to the item shop. Can i obtain cool/funny looking stuff without paying real money?
The cash shop only has like sub 1% of outfits
I need someone's help
Downloaded FFXIV Launcher from @faint flare and this is what I do not understand for this plugin
What does it mean "Displays extra information pulled from search info when examining."?
What is the "extra information" here that I am missing?
It's for links to RP sites
All those supported stuff are (e)RP related
Except pastebin
Is there a way to change my download server or something?
Whichever one I'm connecting to just.... is shit
is it 2mb/s?
!faq quicklauncher
.73 mb/s
oof
Would be my recommendation if you've been having download issues
try quicklauncher anyway
Does that work with the steam version?
Read the faq
hi guys, i convinced my bf to finally play ffxiv with me tmr, hes a wow player. im going to learn a new job with him while he plays, this will be my first time healing, i cant decide which healer class i should pick. whats everyones favorite or whats the most fun?
all of them are good and fun, but whm is the simplest to pick up
just remember to not curespam and do dps lol
yeah ive seen all the people who say you should being dpsing as healer LOL
is that a yes or a no?
thank you to everyone for always answering questions in here btw, i appreciate it
It's an invitation to check for yourself
That is... not helpful at all
WHM use cane, SCH use books choose your style x_x
AST can be unlocked later when you finished the base game
new to FF 14 im was wondering what is a materia on certain pieces of gear? is it like a gem socket like in wow?
yup you socket it, adds stats
its a thing you insert into gear to increase certain substats
but dont worry about it until 80
i have a lvl 80 already so i can play AST
ive been playing for a bit, hes just new :p
i only have a summoner tho
im lvl 26 im wondering like what kinda stats can i get for them atm and how much of that stat?
plenty of materia will be given so play with it if you want in early game
it says on the materia itself
dont worry about it, youre switching gear so quickly that it doesnt matter until cap
yeah, they share levels since they have the same class (arcanist)
they both share arcanist xp so yes
wow
like +20 crit something like that
question from me as well, in last neir raid, which alliance tank get hansel and gretel?
The tanks figure it out on their own
aight then, ill just be the one that doesn't have one lol
until you see the other tank doing the same
I just go stand next to the one I'll grab before it spawns
so uh in my daily run of msq roulette i dont know how but people are starting boss fights like 1-2 minutes before the cutscene ends
i read online that this is from an exploit but im not sure whos doing it
They force close their game then open again
is there a way to report it
but im not sure who to report beucase by thetime im out of a cutscene im back in one again
also i just got back from stormblood many years ago, lockout is still same right? if I pass all, i can run it again to scout the gear i want
you can report them once you finish the cutscene i guess?
Holy shit the download on this launcher is so much faster
Yes
a bit hard to do it while in cutscene yes
Still not quite hitting my regular download speed but much, muchf aster
great. tyvm
I wanna play a bunch this weekend before 9.1 comes out on Tuesday
not sure who it even is at this point
cant tell but i know for sure something wrong is happning
jp dub doesnt make it 2 minutes faster
you can see the list of recently met people in a journal somewhere
idk how gm's do if you are not reporting someone specific
yeah i dont want to report the rwong person
how long do you have before your house is demolished? i havent subbed back for about 3 weeks to take a bit of a break
45 days iirc
okay thank you
I really hope I don't have to do Amaurot all over again. For my game has been crashing due to a direct x error each time.
For players who have not entered their estates for at least thirty days, the status under the Estate tab of the Timers window will indicate the estate is being prepared for auto-demolition and denote the number of days remaining
so, after those 30 days, you have 15 days till demolision
Just don't do lv80 roulette
And I really hope that it leaves off with me doing The Dying Gasp to defeat Hades.
I am hoping it's the latter of the two. fingers crossed.
have you tried switching to dx9
dx9 isn't supported anymore
is it not even an option in the launcher?
it is an option, but not supported
i remember having issues with directx and switching helped
im back on 11 now though
honestly i'd try to reinstall the game from scratch
My version of Direct X is 12.
that is fine, it is just what the game is running on
