ive seen green and pink but not all of my green and pinks were from dungeons i dont think
All of your greens and pinks will have been from dungeons.
ah ok
Yep
ty
But you can just go to your GC and access expert delivery
and it will only let you turn in that kind of gear.
In the GC it auto shows the gear yeah
i figured, i just have a lot in storage and didnt know if i had to haul it all over there
(When you do this, make sure you enable "hide gear set items" so you don't accidentally turn in any gear you're currently using on one of your jobs)
ohhhh my god thank you
i absolutely would have
your pfp is etched into my memories
damned egg song
Pink gear = "aetherial" gear with randomised substats, comes from ARR dungeons. Don't really exist past level 50.
Green gear = either dungeon drops or expert-crafted gear. Most likely you won't have encountered any of the latter yet.
Blue gear = raid drops, trial drops or tomestone exchange gear.
Purple gear = relic weapons.
Note these colours don't say anything about the item's strength, they just give an indication of where it came from.
EGGS
if i have the windows version of ff14 (one that comes with all dlc), and i buy the same version on steam will my stuff carry over to steam version of game?
No
Windows and Steam versions are not compatible.
i was wondering that too
There is no way to have the Steam version and PC version on the same account
won't let you add the code at all
You literally can't register Steam to your account if you already have Windows.
i really wanted to just have it on steam so i can watch hour go up
TIL
@whole ember can check it in game
You can check your total playtime ingame with /playtime
😦
ye its not the same
its just one of those
brain worms
i wanna see it all on steam
You should still be able to use Steam as a launcher
but theres no way in hell im playing through ARR again
Try this
I don't remember if that tracks it like it does with other steam games
ill give it a shot tho
better than starting over and paying ~40 for the game+skip
is there a way to disable the ping sound thing when ur hitting an ability? it's like an error sound if ur not in range or w/e
how do I use duty finder to find a hard version of a dungeon?
I need to sastasha hard for my relic, and I don't know where to queue for it
gotta unlock it
its a separate dungeon
hard dungeons are like.. sequels to the normal versions, in a way
ohhh ok I see
!quest it's definitely pirates
this one unlocks it
Someone sent me an image via chat. Is there a way to open or copy it?
Is there a way to make a macro that toggles this?
is Ilvl 466 good enough to run Rathalos EX for the mount?
question: im lvl 46 but the next MSQ quest wont allow me to do it until 49. whats the next best way to get xp?
need to copy the link and paste it in a web browser
do leveling roulette for the day if you haven't already, and then spam your highest level dungeon
If you haven't unlocked it you can get this dungeon at level 44
!quest fort of fear
There are dark places that only an adventurer may illume, and Ser Carrilaut is about to point the way to one such pit of peril.
Carrilaut
Coerthas Central Highlands (X: 24.8 Y: 28.86)
Ophelie
Coerthas Central Highlands (X: 19.84 Y: 27.85)
leveling roulette?
yes, in the duty finder's first tab
it queues up for a random dungeon that's not level 50/60/70/80 and gives a lump sum of experience on top of what the dungeon itself gives
ty
oh nice and this is a daily kinda thing?
yes
you can do it more than once a day, but in terms of experience afterwards it's the exact same as queueing for that dungeon directly
which is terrible experience if it picks one well below your level, like sastasha
ahh ok, im doing som lvl 16 dungeon lol...
don't worry Leveling Roulette's EXP bonus takes the dungeon into consideration.
so while you'll get low experience from the dungeon, the roulette reward upon completing the dungeon will be bigger to compensate
in the end Leveling roulette is usually around 20-40% of your experience bar depending on your level and dungeon you get.
double that if you're on a preferred server and have the road to 70 buff
Minor spoilers(?) I need help
I teleported out of ||Crystarium before attuning it, and I know Tataru says that I need to touch the beacon to go back there, but I have no idea where it is, if I could get some coordinates that'd be helpful, thank you.||
Go back to the boat in mor dhona that took you to that area that looks like it's under the crystal tower, and talk to one of the NPCs there
the boat is near Saint Coinach's Find
like around x29, y15 ish
oh yea 200k from that just now
somewhere on the coastline
Thank you

hey so idk if this applies here but where can I find someone to help me get a mount from an extreme trial in ARR?
Hard, mount drop rates are not good
Try Pf
kk
You still parse on 5.5 if you turn off Echo, right?
yes, but there should be echo partitions now
Yup, thanks
Hey, is there a list of the fastest raids to do for the relic items?
A1, A4, O1, O3, E1, E3
gotcha, thanks
E1 is faster than E2 if your group is good enough to skip the add phase, which means skipping the 50 second ultimate animation
im going in as BLM so I'll be sure to give big number
\o/
i want to get started on hunt trains, is there anything i need to know, like quests to do or maybe picking up contracts or something
Nutsy is shadowbringers so you're all caught up on unlocking stuff
im assuming its in the crystarium?
as for the hunt bills, you don't need any for the hunt trains since A ranks and S ranks give their seals based on credit for how well you and your party killed the monster
yep
alrighty
where do i find groups doing hunt trains?
and can i do trains in other worlds
or limited to my own
most groups organize on the centurio hunts discord for the most part
and yes you can join trains on other servers
alrighty, ill look into the centurio hunt server
thanks
Is it possible to hide your shield as a paladin
This can be bought off the marketboard, or from glamour item merchants in Vesper Bay or Mor Dhona if you have a level 15 crafter.
im thinking of getting a hw relic weapon.. for fashion purposes
say wat happens when i upgrade it to next.. idk 'stage'
img onna lose the previous arent i?
nothung is pretty sick.. but so is deathbringer yknow what i mean?
The node near Gerolt sells replicas for each step that you've completed
but yes, you do lose the weapon itself
whats the best way to grind xp post 50 
potd?
or is potd just overall the most xp gained
Just keep doing msq
i like that its the least thinking/ travelling/gearing involved of all the methods, like.. sure if you're a tank
you can also opt to run the highest lvl dungeon available for you while also filling up queue times with hunts and logs, but.. thats effort man
and yeah msq
what does this reset timer mean? does all your currency disappear or something?
how 2 level from 58 to 70?
there is a limit to how many rev tomestones can be acquired a week, and that resets your quota
no, caught up with current patch
No, you're capped weekly on how many tomestones of Revelation you can earn.
wait really
I need to get to 70 asap, I need to be able to equip my ultimate weapon
yeah, u can get 900 per week and onceu do.. gotta wait til tuesday like the rest of us peasants to aquire more
The weekly timer is until the cap resets and you can earn more.
ooh.. but no cap on old tomes right?
Nah
poetics and allegories are nigh infinite/ as much as you can stomach
okie good cause im not 80 yet so i just get those tomes for 60/70 gear
do I need to know Nier lore in order to better understand the nier raid storyline?
not really but it helps
though, as someone who understands nier lore
you wont get 1/3 of what's happening even if you played automata
you need to play like DEEP YOKO TARO stuff
eh kinda
understanding is is optional anyway tbh
even as a nier fan
the raids are p much "i clapped when _ happened"
Look it da guys from Nier, and da girl from Nier but with robots
And it’s da place from not-Nier
Is it necessary, no. will you get it with no nier lore insight, no. will you get it even if you played automata? no.
Should I do side quests? I am like 19 and my quests are 10-13
Then do daily roulette + highest dungeon
its actually bought with mgp
its fairly cheap, 100k
is 15 ppl enough for castrum lacus litore
So ... any fishermen out there know how the hell you get to Jadeite Flood for the level 40 quest ??
ty
Does this server have a thing where you party up to clear some high end content? I wanna do E8S but it’s really rough finding a party in PF
So I am a complete idiot related to Eureka, a friend told me that I need to progress my relic to get the elemental body piece, am I supposed to like, get Ryunohige +2 or what?
You need to complete the Elemental step

I have 0 idea what that means
Finish the relic completely in pagos
I am in Anemos rn, what do I do
You can't buy any armor until Pyros
If you're talking about the glowly armor
You can dye job gear in Anemos
try a #recruitment channel for your dc
Anemos step is the last step in Anemos
You have to have 3 pazuzu feathers
Then you start relic in pagos
So do I get or do I not get Ryunohige +2?
What do I do after the Pazuzu feather step?
Ty, couldn't find it ! 😄
Any mod or way to help predict weather ?
can talk to the skywatcher to see upcoming weather
... wow didn't know that lol
There's some sites that'll show you the weather way farther ahead than what the skywatcher has
If that's any use to you
so it says i can no longer enter the palace of the dead because i dont meet strength requirements. is there any way to redo some floors?
Cool, was looking for something more specific, but thats soemthing. Just need raincallers, keep missing rain
THANK YOU
I would imagine old/new Gridinia's weather is all the same
is aetherpool only from chests
The silver chests
tytytty
is the a Relic reborn quest worth doing? It seems extremely long
old relics are only worth it for glamour
and generally recommended to do when you're max level and bored
look up the final weapons to see if they are to your likings
then decide for yourself
how can i afk without getting kicked inside bozja
but it’s true it’s a looong and tedious and frustrating process

oof
should i be taking gil or Armour and weapons as quest rewards ? which is more "optimal"
Also the EW discount doesn’t work for steam, so screw us I guess
dumb question, can a girl character wear this https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/product/449 ? I wanna be a fancy aristocrat
no
It's for male only
sad
@shrewd zodiac if the gear is better than yours then take the gear
I saw it said designed but I didnt know if that just meant reccomended or not
it says male as one of the tags
okay i heard somewhere you should take gil and get gear from dungeons or buy it
yes
sounds good thanks for the help
Which is why the need option exists
yes realizing that now lol
can i see what the gear requirements are for my floor in potd?
As long as you try to get every silver chest you see, you should easily clear the requirements
Feel your pain
Seems like 1-50 msq is just like "Well, we know its boring... but we have to break you in somehow" and everyone speed runs.
hehe
Are there any spoiler in the stormblood cinematic about the HW patch quests
is the GMG key for steam or mog station? (like if someone buys from there can they keep using the normal version and not steam?)
its a non-steam key
you can only get steam keys from steam
no, stormblood's cinematic is pretty spoiler free
ok ty
and the key from GMG can be saved and used later on, like normal keys. right?
yes
For how long can I keep it?

Nier raid spoiler: || Does it matter who I choose, anogg or konogg?||
New player here, LF mentor
No
has anyone actually been messed with by enix for transferring gil
I gave 30m to my fc owner to buy a better house
and now it's... concerning
put 30m in the fc chest so they can withdrawal it
What’s the problem?
they ban people for rmt
Yes when there is significant evidence of rmt.
You have nothing to worry about for a normal ingame gil transaction.
it's all traceable to my retainers
If there was no rmt then there is nothing to worry about
You will not be punished for rmt if you did not engage in rmt.
I've already been investigated once for market activity already so my confidence in this game is just shit
they didn't even have me unlist anything I was selling
And did you get punished?
no
Then what’s the problem?
that they had to go the extent of that and put on a display it shows.. well.. if they looked at all they wouldn't have needed too?
just irritating
Sounds like an investigation cleared you of any wrongdoing and the system worked fine.
been selling items on warcraft for over 10 years now and never been looked at by them
You were probably reported by someone
Is there any way to be able to place abilities by just pressing the hotkey once to activate then again to place instead of using the mouse button to place?
You can use a ground targeting macro
For example if it’s salted earth
yeah thats exactly what i need it for
ayone knows?
ruins the flow for me
I use this macro:
/merror off
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <t>
/ac “Salted Earth” <me>
/micon “Salted Earth”```
Took awhile to write on mobile
why so many times to execute it?
It will attempt to place it under your current target, and failing that it will place it underneath your own character
To make up for the fact macros can’t be queued
Ah
why does the ac part have to be repeated so many times?
And iirc shalted earth macro doesnt work placing on huge targets
So for enemies like Diamond Weapon where the middle of the boss is in mid air
Yeah manually placing 😦
Or off the platform somewhere
how do I use materia again?
That’s why the line of <me> is there at the end
If it fails to place under the centre of the boss then it’s placed centred on your character instead
Right click on item and it should say “meld”
And as long as the puddle overlaps even a little bit with the enemy’s target ring, it will affect them.
but it says i dont have the skill
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
hi guys, if i purchase the complete edition from steam
can i not use it first and continue with trial? There's a discount going on, hoping to secure first
I don’t think so
is there any reason to keep an equipment at max spirit bond?
Nope
They don't expire iirc. You can hold on to the registration code indefinitely.
100% or 0% does not matter
I don't get why they always ask confirmation before I Extract Materia
Might be because it used to destroy the said item
A holdover from the old system, presumably. It used to break the item.
oh.
is there a way to indicate a whole macro where to chat? cuz i notice it only does it on one line. Like for this example.
What materia should tanks have
thats multiple lines so /p each one
crit > sks to tier > dhit > det
Dark Knight should have tenacity and piety or no
how much xp does castrim litore gives
tenacity is a stat that has less scaling value compared to the other stats
Dark knight follows along with most tanks. Crit > Comfy SkS > DH > DET. DRK doesn't need piety, that's a healer stat
Also Piety just straight up doesn't do anything on non-healers.
I see, thanks man. Thought there was a easy way out lol
is there a certain guild i should join?
do you mean grand company
guilds are free companies
grand companies are the city state organizations you join
can u only see castrum CE once u have rank 10?
do I really have to get a level 19 DoH to meld materia?>
On the go at least
only if u dont want to use a melder
where do I find melders?
main cities
Markets
then it's down to personal preference
they all do the same stuff but iwth different aesthetic and city state
you can also just swap later
hey jim do u know if u can only see castrum once u hit rank 10 in bozja?
pick one and then swear undying loyalty to it though
correct
you can't see the ping / joining message until you do the rank 10 quest
i just got there after grinding for a few hrs
Same for Dalriada @ r25
yep
what rank do i need to get to 535 relic
25
Is there any way to see how much EXP dungeons give?
if it takes as long as it took to hit 10 ima die
whats the mettle gain in zadnor compared to bozja?
how long would u say on average it would take to hit 25 from 10 in zadnor
i dont know how much i can trust a few hrs anymore
LOL

You just gotta be consistent with it
i had to force myself to grind from rank 8 to 10 tonight
it felt awfull
but i want that 535 wep
Anything under 10 sucks. I promise it isn't as bad later
actually this is not true
you only need rank 15 to finish the relic by unlocking zadnor
But you'd wanna do Dalriada anyway
It gives 3 raw emotions
or you run delubrum because you hate yourself and need more relics
Unless you have Timeworn step and last step up meaning 2 relics open at the same time
i already hate myself and havent event gotten my first one maxed
don't really stress about it then
you get the relic mats inside of zadnor anyway
and it is faster to do it in zadnor than the alternative
rank 25 will come with it and it'll be fairly quick if you just keep at it
when i herd that u need like 10 million mettle for rank 25 i almost wanted to die
You'll rank up and get stuff for relic. 2 for one
nah it scales up
Zadnor gives way more mettle than BSF by comparison.
yeah all 180 mats are from zadnor and drop guaranteed so it's rather quick
especially since zadnor skrimishes pop up near constantly
whats better, eden gear or cryptlurker gear?
Cryptlurker, if you're not raiding
how do i unlock all those lost skills that people use, the ones i seem to get are 6 second duration lost spells
I need a guide for BLM zodiac relics, an updated one cuz there migh be many shortcuts with today expantions and patches
for the kupo stamp question earlier, if you're outside of the level range of it, you don't get any for submitting
this is all you should need, not anything insanely crazy for skips
there's a lot of straightforward work you need to do for it
Yeah You only get Kupo stamps from the highest leveled item you can do
Not sure how the 80 ones work
Probably the same
ive seen people with padjali gear outside that glows quite brightly, but when i try the weapons on, they have no glow at all. how do you get the glow?
like....lmfao
They display funny in the preview window. They always have their normal glow otherwise.
so it can’t be faster then this no? if so OK :3
not much faster no
it might also be your settings for your computer
they just render like butts in preview
during this stage of the relic quest, is it better to do Zadnor or Raids?
I'd recommend Zadnor until you start only needing a few specific ones
to get 3 aetherpool grips do i need +30 weapon AND armor?
All the FATE (skirmish) ones will come extremely fast
ty rip
ok ty
does upgrading become omre common after floor 50?
the green book I did the raids since the critical engagements in zone 2 is abysmal... didnt have that problem in zone 1 and zone 3 since people like doing those
Higher-floor chests have a better chance of giving you upgrades if you have a higher aetherpool level.
Ay
Apparently there’s a chance to get 3 upgrades at once also
I thought it was the other way around?
It never happened to me
seems like if your aetherpool is high, the chance of getting something from a chest is low
The other way around would make no sense 
Higher-floor chests have a better chance of giving you upgrades if you have a higher aetherpool level.
I see what you mean now
does any one has an video guide for the blm zodiac relic weapons? using consolegameswiki on phone is really ugly to navigate -_-
I was interpreting it as "Higher-floor chest have a better chance if you have a higher aetherpool level rather than a lower aetherpool level"
What server is most Social/English speaking? Aether/Primal/Crystal? I'm in US West
idk what to choose
Any
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
All 3 of those are located in the same physical location and are almost entirely English speaking
NA is 98% English speaking
Okay. Is it possible to switch servers if I want to later?
With $$
Servers don't really have their own unique communities except for those mentioned in the FAQ at the bottom there.
Hello guys, I have been away for a bit. A few patches I think, I would like to ask is it worth to invest in the current craftable armour sets(i510)? My current gear is mostly i480(neo Ishgardian gear) in the main slots, most of the accessories are i450-460(old raid gear). Main aim is to Solo some old dungeons as a dark knight. Namely The Swallow's Compass for Bonewicca gear 😉 Pretty sure I was able to do it before but wouldn't mind investing in some new gear 😉 Weapon is also the basic lv80 relic (i485)
Crafted armor is pretty affordable now
Not gonna make much difference if your only interest is unsyncing old content.
it'd help but don't kill yourself over it
But you can also run Eden normal and just sweep up all the tokens everyone leaves behind, and get geared up for free in a reasonable amount of time
might try that 😉 and finish up on Yorha's last set of dungeons
I finished the first 2 sets I think, last one I still have yet to do, those ones are still locked or unlocked by now? (Yorha 3rd set of raids)
How to unlock more dungeon ? Do more msq ?
most of the time yes
Kk
Is there a place to lookup Guilds that are recruiting? Like forums
Guys I am at louisoux and i want to complete the lazy for you fate
!faq communityfinder
The 3rd raid is available but the gear is weekly locked
I think
@jade quartz is it still weekly locked
?
But there is no people here
is there anything to look out for in 4.2-4.3? I heard some pretty nasty stuff is talked about in there
What do you mean? Like the FATE's not appearing or?
well no hurt queueing and winging it I guess 😉
yes Paradigm's breach is still weekly locked on gear and the coin+materia
It's still locked yeah
It's a raid fate boss and there is no people here
Ty! I forgot if it was
oof
How do I make my macro have the icon of an ability? using /micon "Salted Earth" doesnt seem to work
That should work
am i doing something wrong
make sure your quotes aren't weird
not that I can immediately tell, maybe use auto-translate instead of quotations?
oh just worked, i put in the double apostrophes again and it fixed it
😉
😉
Waited 10 mins there is still no people
It is pretty late in NA
Chaos is EU correct? Does NA have any impact on que times over there?
no NA doesn't have any impact
Oops, I thought Chaos was NA
duty finder and party finder are only within their datacenter
Yeah, I just wondered if there were people from NA playing on chaos a lot
Should I really call out healers to DPS? I experienced some scripted boss wipes that requires DPSing before the boss nukes the party, because healer standby for healing
Yes, do so
what does settlement in the maps do?
Healers should dps, there is no argument about that
Just means that there is a settlement there which may or may not have some useful NPCs like vendors or whatnot
nothing major
Another reason, I experienced some veteran players defend the 0 DPS healer, which is fine for me, as long we’re not in HW - ShB.
Then they were wrong
I just gave them a friendly reminder, then suddenly I either get no response from healer’s confirmation or other players replied, ”Just enjoy the game and story :)” (Good reason too, but...)
I don't wanna sound elitist but there is absolutely 0 reason for a healer to not use their dps skills
If they really want to join the story and move onto MSQ, it’s always not going to be any easier.
ShB is when everything shit happens to me 
it's because from lvl 71 forward everything scales up quite a bit in terms of numbers
So I decided to give my SCH a huge push and no holding back on my oGCDs
Which is effectively an increase in difficulty but at that lvl you also have much more tools to deal with it
So it balances out
Right
Assuming you actually use those tools 
Tbh, I’m really tired of reminding the new healers to DPS. So I decided to work on being chill and let them do on their own way. If we get a wipe from scripted boss (like beating the add up before it nukes), then I will absolutely point the healer out at least once.
so I really really wanna play summoner it's my favorite aesthetic and I love dots but it looks so damn hard at cap especially with it's meme opener what do I do I suck at maintaining rotations and struggle in general with mmo content, what do
in a friendly tone 
If you never touch extreme/savage content you will still do fine
Which is fine, that difficulty may just not be for you
I have my entire openers on hotbars 9 and 10 in sequential order
I’ve seen one healer sprout randomly joined the PF E9S prog, then everyone else are GLARE-ing at the sprout’s WHM damage and action history (Yes...it assumes one of the peep is using ACT / FFLogs) 
Helps me not screw up
I tried to calm everyone down, that we can’t expect sprout to be immediately pro at high end duties

So I literally explain like the 1st grade lecture: Throw a DPS while no one need heals or taking damage. Heal people when their HP goes to shit around 75% or less (in case boss doing rng bullshit crit dmg).
uh what city is baby summoner in uldah right?
You mean Arcanist?
Lisma
Limsa
And another thing: Is it okay for new players to play a game (If they play on PS4/PS5/Xbox X Series) without a keyboard?
Edit: Eh, actually what am I thinking. Of course you need a keyboard, if they’re into the game even further.
It's fine but a) games not on xbox afaik
b) a USB keyboard is still highly recommended
Well, I do heard Xbox X series is gonna be available to FFXIV, it’s just rumors though
how can i afk without getting kicked inside bozja
be in conversation with an NPC
Possible but currently highly unlikely since xbox's presence in Japan is still negligible
Thanks
are there suppose to be no fates in azys lla?
.... latest?
im trying to get the hw relic weapon here, why is it also for the LATEST
haven't done the HW relic so i'm not sure if you have an alternative, but yeah the ShB relic is available there
that is questionable design
They should pop up soon
aww shit there they are, they're back, its my time to shine
any tips for doing leviathan hard without being in queue for 50 mins?
try to shout, azys is pretty huge
Party finder
tried it, people wouldnt join
what is the max level of side jobs ? e.g. culinary
80 too
80
:O
it's like any other job (except BLU)
i guess ill stick to lvl 10 each side jobs?
it's not necessary for early game, but yeah it's quite fun to level it
hello is there anywhere i can look for groups for the ivalice raids ? i'm stuck at the light house in the queue for a while and i'm not sure how can i complete it
its like 6 am, im actually waiting for a group for the ivalice raid right now as well, im sure it'll happen eventually but i realize the time of day is currently not desirable so.. doing something as i wait (like hw relic weapon)
just have to wait. Make sure your duty finder is searching for JP players if it's not already
....oh, i can do that?
it's quite a long queue yeah, but it should still pop-up since it's in the roullete
jp bros, to the rescue
is it recommended to lvl up all the doh's together? since my armory is filling up quite fast
only in limsa lominsa is the place i can start the side jobs isnt it?
You're on primal, yeti, it doesn't do nearly as much for you
how do i know if i'm also searching jp players ? sorry quite new to this
!faq unsync
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ 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.
follow this, but make sure the J is highlighted.
navigate to the DF settings menu and select languages
You literally can't find a duty with people who don't share languages
for wat its worth, im on aether now but havent bothered to do anything bout my roles here lmao
Yes
alright thanks 😄
Doesn't matter, you're havibg long queues because it's between 3 and 6 am in NA
There's different jobs in all 3 starter cities
leveling them all up together help keeps the armoury empty since they'll all be using the same gear, besides their tools.
which place for weaving
Ul'Dah
Ul dah
I’m just at the role quests in ShB. A) is it gonna take forever and stop me getting to the end of MSQ if I try and do all four role quests at same time (or should I come back to them)? And B) can I do the physical DPS one with my lvl 62 dancer. The quest giver is blue. Or if I start it now as dancer can I mix and match which jobs I do to complete it? Thank you!
do you use bozja silver/mythril coin for anything than exchange them into gold/plantium?
Best to just focus on one at a time. Whichever you're doing MSQ with first. Also you need to be at least level 70 to finish the quest.
Ah cool thanks.
nope
I got my Astro up to 80 already so now trying to get SMN:SCH so will do magic dps one. They’re interesting though.
I did a level 70 msq with a lvl 69 including a solo instance. Just not able to turn in the quest. Probably the same for the role quests
okay so, I can only convert spirit bonds into materia if I have lvl 19 Disciple of Hand class (e.g. weaver except culinary), because that's the only way I can start the quest for "Forging the Spirit" is it?
I could be wrong but I think you only need a DoH leveled to do the Materia Melding quest, not the one for extraction
is DoH level 15 all I need to unlock glamour
anything level 15
you can glam without a doh leveled
its doh level 15 to craft prisms
Oh ok so I have it unlocked already I guess
if youve done the unlock quest for glamour yes
is crafting prisms important?
You're sure that Forging the Spirit is asking you to be on a crafter job?
I have prisms already so I've done it I think
Best to focus one at a time, you only need to complete one L80 role quest for the MSQ and all role quests are synced to the level of the role quest itself, so a L62 dancer won't make it.
There is a 5th role quest story that starts after you finish the 4 other ones and completed the 5.0 MSQ (and explains the origin of the flood of light and the Eden Lightwarden), so there is a nice reason to do them all.
!quest forging the spirit
how will i know if i did the quest already? is there a way to see all quests done?
If it isn’t in your journal and it’s not available from the npc listed
Then you’ll probably done it
i believe i did this already Life, Materia and Everything
so uh.. my house got auto demolished... and I have 233 furniture in temporary storage with the NPC for 30 days. My retainers don't have enough room... what do I do?
but i really can't find a way to extract materia from a weapon with 100% spirit bond,
I dont really understand this xD
right click on that weapon -> extract?
Just go to swynbroes and see if you can get the quest from him
oohhh why i didnt see him quest
Thank you. That’s really helpful. This story is already so much more interesting than HW!
Probably msq
cause iirc there was a msq bit discussing materia
😆
yeah, minfillia sends you to put materia in her dagger which serves as a reason to introduce the system

im level 11 if i change to arcanist am i back to level 1?
Hiya, is it important to do this Void Ark or Alexander questline now or can I just wait until like Shadowbringers?
!faq lvlguide
Yes, as all class levels are independent
Please use #kupo-bot-spam next time :)
thanks couldnt find channel
It can wait if you want
But it's an easy source of poetics if you need gear
but you should do alexander
imo
important-ish to some shadowbringers lore
same with omega
like, it can wait, but it makes more sense if done first
faq lvlguide looks pretty out dated. done in 2017 and doesnt cite HoH. whats the best way to level 71-80 for alt? it is:
roulette > Bojza > latest dungeon (for T and H)?
quick question, is the early story stuff (lvl 17 atm) important later? it's really hard to keep up with all the groups and names but if all of that is important i wanna concentrate more on it
Mm okay, should I do it before beginning Stormblood?
you dont have to
theyre fun raids, good music
just depends on when you wanna do it
But for story it's only relevant by shadowbringers?
So I could do it during SB and not miss anything?
Okay thanks! I will do that 😄
It's only because I'm nearing the start of SB and can't be bothered to do it now 😄
yeah thats ok! lol
i didnt do void ark until i was done with msq
because i didnt know it existed\
void ark and alex ||arent relevant to msq at all afaik*||
I discovered warring triad by complete accident
alex kinda is
Oh yeah, I have to do that, too :/ I guess I can do all of it during SB msq
void ark not at all
It's so overwhelming starting new with how many things to do when you have 3 expansions of content 😄
i believe the writer recommended a list of things you might want to complete for more lore info going into Endwalker
but that also is optional ...
like coils
Thanks all! I'll just do all this stuff during SB msq as I'm nearly done 3.x stuff and kind of want to finish it up 😄
but anyhow, do all blue quests like alex anw; for lore, and fun, and gears, and music :3
I did those while queuing for msq dungeons
I did all the Hildibrand quests, though. Those are so funny 😄
Woo, I love Hildibrand
glhf
Thank you 😄
How much spell speed do i need for it to become effective ? I have 800 at the moment and it only reduces my cooldowns by 0.06s
I am playing the Steam version of the free trial. I want to buy Shadowbringers Complete Edition because it's only $24, but I am worried it will end my free trial
Is that what will happen, or will steam just give me a key to register on the SE website?
oh cool ty!
Keep in mind that you dont mindlessly increase spell speed
Key
to avoid weird drifting
I bought it on steam 2 days ago but I’m still abusing my trial status
i dont want as much as i can have to cast faster ?
You want to stay within certain windows so you don't throw off the timings of your cooldowns.
^ you want to hit a specific gcd
oh so i can stay in my rotation
Only black mage and healers want spell speed
Smn has enough instant casts to not need it and rdm has dual cast so it's completely unnecessary
ok ty all for the help!
Thank you
The highest one?
I'm wondering if I should get my dps classes up first
is it ever needed to have multiple jobs leveled?
Yes
If you want to, then sure. Otherwise you don’t have to if you don’t want to. Nothing wrong with specialists.
Cross class skills were a thing
with how the game currently is, there's no requirement to level up any job besides the one you start as if that's the one you want to play as.
only before stormblood was it needed to level up another class to become your job and to learn specific skills that could be shared between specific classes.
Wait, I thought they said “was it ever needed to have multiple jobs leveled?”
in breach, specific boss drops specific gear slots right? when's the armor?
Chest pieces usually only drop from the last boss chest and the last optional chest
For alliance raids, chest pieces drop from the 3rd and 4th bosses iirc.
it's all over the place, for the most part.
Not needed, but certain side quests are role-locked and certain mounts require being a tank to get
There's also a specific mount you can only get as conjurer
🦄🦄🦄
Not white mage, conjurer
aight thanks, so it's just not dropping
Rng do be that way
is there a teleport point anywhere in the undiscovered area
Oh good to know
Basically the closest aetheryte to far out West highlands is in dravinia forelands
The next zone
going there rn
when i unlockthe weekly quest after last nier raid, that's the end of the side quest? I'm checking the quest list and there's a bunch more after that but I can't find it
Can I solo a level 50 trial as a level 50, queue times are very long rn
Takes 6 weeks of doing that weekly to complete the nier series iirc
I see. thanks
quick question but for new game+ can i just exit it or am i forced to do the quests?
You can pause or abandon New Game+ any time
and return back to your normal MSQ progress

is hour long queues for dps usual?
what r u in q for
depending on the content it may be
You can review cutscenes at any inn in any major city by using the Unending Journey tome…so you don’t have to go into NG+
some arr hydra boss
ah
Many people don't have that one unlocked, so they can't get it in roulette
^
i just need to do it for my relic 😔
might wanna PF it
if you advertise first time bonus it'll fill reasonably quick
I just hit level 30, and I want to become bard, but Luciane is not offering a quest to start it.. What am I doing wrong
guys, how do i submerge unda da sea?
Do you mean go underwater yourself, or using submersibles to get you items?
me, myself and i, there's apparently a city unda da sea, and wanna go there to explore
if you have unlocked underwater swimming, Ctrl+Space to dive
if you haven't unlocked it yet, keep following the MSQ
not sure what that means, i've got the quest: under the sea, at lvl 62 msq
hi guys, ill be lvling my 2nd job with someone who is completely new to the game (i have a lvl 80 already). how do i lvl with them since i dont have msq to do
to level you kinda have to grind dungeons
there's a tunnel on the island that will take you down to that city
Go to X34, Y20 in the ruby sea and climb down
you could do some hunting logs for the very early levels until y unlock dungeons
hm okie, thank you!
Key selling isn't permitted on this server I'm afraid
oh it's arlight. i will delete my message!
how do I get Acidic Secretions?
Dropped by Shroud Hare in Alder Springs, North Shroud
Or just gathered by a battle retainer
or bought off the marketboard
thanks
is the weekly sword thing lockout in eden accross all raid tiers?
only the most current tier, AKA eden's promise
i just finished gate this week, and now finished a verse, didnt seem to get one? or is it the 4th boss?
4th boss of each tier
ahh right, that makes sense
Im doing the relic reborn quest for ninja and it says i need materia enhanced vamper knives
do i just meld the specified materia?
i already messed one up xd
yes you need to meld only the specified materia
you can take them out with the "Retrieve Materia" option on the item to fix it
Is there a FATE Timer? Looking to get the bardings in Rhalgr's Reach
As long as it’s in the circles, you can get the materia back no downside
ohh i didnt know that xd
i just have 2 vamper knives now
can some one give me an written guide for zodiac relic weapon? not the consolegameswiki website :3
rate of success only cares about the grade of materia, not if it's an overmeld
1-6 are 100%, 7 is 80% and 8 is 40%
what's confusing about the page on the wiki?
!faq zodiac
I don’t like how is writtent and it’s an pain to navigate on phone
@obsidian patio thanks :3
if i reached rank 25 in bozja i can die million times and respawn without fearing to lose my rank right ?
My miner is like l 43, how do you level those again...
where did you get the quests for miners and other crafting classes?
@prisma hill At the Miner trainer every 5 levels before 50.
You never lost rank by mettle loss.
In Ul'Dah
Werent there some daily quests though?
ty
@prisma hill The only thing I can think of are the Grand Company turn ins.
Hello together! I started the free tiral via the square enix website and now want to buy the game. Can I also buy the game via Steam and continue to use the same account?
yes, non-steam trial to steam full game works
it's the only time you can cross steam/non-steam in terms of licenses
Thank you! Then I buy the game on Steam and enter the code in the mogry station, correct?
yep
if i change jobs to another will i have to wait until im level 18 to carry on the MSQ?
Yes
So how do i get to 18? just join fates etc?
Hunting logs and fates to round off the levels if needed
oh yeh the log, good call.
how much is it to transfer to another server?
$18
bumping my qns:
the altlvlguide faq is something we're wanting to update eventually
why is it so expensive -.-
it also functions as a bulk move. If you have multiple characters on one server it moves them all to your destination server if you want it to
I'd like to do some "Prey Online" - Fate at Azys Lla, but i didnt saw them spawn once.
Is there anywhere a timer, couldnt find any?
they'll spawn eventually
the centurio hunt discord sometimes keeps track of world boss fates like that
It only spawns like once every 48 hours or something iirc
Probably more
thanks :)
24-48 hours for most world boss fates
so no definite answer for now? i see. thank you
guys I want to ask if ffxiv would work on my laptop with the following specs:
Radeon hd 7650m
Intel core i5 3210m 2.5ghz
!faq benchmark
run this
thats the official benchamark?
oh lol
On their site
So I've opened up squadron missions, but the npc says that I need 1 more member, how do I get that member?
Hello guys! I am trying to open FF XIV, but i get this message: "an unexpected error has occurred. exiting final fantasy xiv.(6d)". Can any1 help me?
i got my chocobo but i dont know how to summon it. (im not in a city)
already whistled but i cant find the keybind
Even before the first one?
Yes
Character menu button > mount guide
Thanks alot
while im here do you know how to get dark knight? right now im lvl 28 but i read on a forum that when you are lvl 30 you have to go to ishgaard?
You misread it
Dark knight STARTS at 30 when unlocked
To unlock it, it's lv50 and get to Ishgard
Which is after all of ARR msq
Oh okay thanks again : )
yeah they suck like that
when do the Limit Break job animations play? I haven't seen them a single time in-game even when someone uses the third level LB
When the cast bar of the limit break finishes. They're pretty obvious
Especially dragoon
I am playing DNC and I keep getting one shot by mobs in Bozja, what can I do to resist more? My gear gets synced so I can't get any better gear either
Don't fight Rank 3+ mobs
Don't play dnc
Since your standard step will hit a large radius and aggro more than you can handle
Mob ranks determine their strength
You shouldnt take one anything beyond 2 solo
If you want to fight Rank 3 solo you need actions
Dnc is bozja is a baaaaad idea
Also use a defence essence
4+ need a tank
Save your dps essences for DR, youll honestly never use defence essences anywhere else
Rank 3 mobs are fine with dps essence and burst them down
Just pures for DR since they're Easy to farm
FFXIV Eureka NM pop time tracker
No
They stay in the holster thinf
oh
so we don't got to mix recipes?
olk so I am guessing
we need 9 for the first wisdom one
and its random
what spell we get?
is there any chance I can somehow do coils of bahamut?
it seems it would never work through duty
Since I'm a free trial member I can't make parties or use party finder
You need someone to make the party finder for you to unsync it
Coils is old high end content so no sane person ques for it
It's not in any roulette
So yeah, it would be unsync only. Nobody really wants to do that synced especially not the later ones
how high level would you have to be to do it unsynced?
would I have to solo it lmao?
70/80
Ill drag you through it if you want for the poetics
You can still watch the cutscenes
You just wont experience the fight
It will be fast
that's fine
how long is it in terms of cutscenes total? like if you were to just blitz through the fights?
just an estimate
Ummmm. idk
we talking like praetorium length or what
I can drag you through the first two coils solo, ill need help for the final
Its like 15 different fights
all with scenes
omg wow
hello, would like to ask how to type the "good game" with arrows at the end of dungeons?
Thats the auto translate function
For auto translate
o tyvm
when would you be available?
Im on right now
how long do you think the first 2 coils would take? just an estimate so I know how long to set aside
honestly i dont know, its been awhile. lets say an hour?
idk how long the scenes are
each zone should only take 1 to 5 minutes
whats your ig name?
penguin mancer, but remember I'm free trial so I can't add friends sadly
what world?
primal exodus
You can join a PF right? just not make one?
yeah
is there a way to see every quest that is available and not tracked in a specific region of the map?
a question, if i level up my retainer as a paladin, then change class, will it lose its current level?
