ye but that runs out
Shits cheap on that
I just hit 47 and ran out of MSQ. The next requirement is level 50. What do I do to catch up its gonna take forever to hit 50 with side quest.
world visit
World visif
Does Monk & Samurai share the same type of gear?
!faq altlvlguide
Yes
it also depends on the materia, crafter materia goes up insanely high at .2 because of the new crafter set
yes @north venture
@modest iglooI do that too change servers, or do you mean root server like aether
yeah thats what i mean
how do I do that?
!faq worldvisit
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
thx
Can i join a trust remotely, duty finder-ish?
but this doesn't let you go on another server outside of aether
it's only those on aether
if you have char on aether
I am wondering if data center itself can be switched
and if you can wander to other data centers
Not yet
Characters are Datacenter bound atm.
That's like post September or so
5.58
Just a quick question, if I macro a skill like Superbolide or Living Dead do I still need a <me> at the end of the /ac command?
No
so does 5.58 mean you can now do it?
No
Cheers ❤️
it's coming up then
So, Remote Trust (Solo mode), possible or have to go to the dungeon entrance?
Data centre travel testing is coming between September and November
nice nice
accidentally had my retainer sell something to an NPC
is there a buyback?
Trust menu in the duty menu button
yes there is but you have to close their menu first
I haven't played in a long time and came back a few days ago... i'm lvl 67 now on my ninja but I noticed I have capped out 45k storm seals, 50k serpent seals and 2k tomestones. All capped out... should I be using this somewhere that's important?
because i figured out the answer to my own question

okay i thought i had a stroke
and thought i should let myself know
Oh, there it is! Ty. Btw, it only shows the last trust i completed and i don't see any selection for my current one.
I have a
in Kholusia after just doing a
for a current called 'Talos, Interrupted' that's synced down to 70
spend seals on ventures or something to not stay capped
What is this supposed to unlock?
spend poetics on shire armor to not stay capped
Playing machinist makes my hand hurt, anyone else too? lol
Need to complete shadowbringers to trust other dungeons
dwarf beast tribes
yeah it's a very fast class
wut
Its lalafells with a beard
i have no idea where to use these seals and poetics lol. What city is it in?
if you're buying shire gear, idyllshire
if you're using seals, go to the company's respective city
storm is limsa, at the aftcastle
ah is that shire gear stuff mostly just for transmog?
ah since i'm lvl 66 on my ninja.. I should probably save and use these on like my 60 black mage if i level her?
actually 67 now
Uh by 66 you should be using Stormblood dunegon gear
how can I register Endwalker preorder I bought for PS5?
Fully close the game
And relaunch it
And follow the prompts
Once you log back in
i'm in 273 gear gear stuff. I only see the sirensong sea for stormblood dungeons for level 61
It registers automatically on PlayStation afaik
Poetics you should be using
Lv50 : iron works
Lv60: Shire
Lv70: Scavean
my account on Square Enix site doesn't show it, damn
Do what I said
You need to close the game like vinyl said
i'll try to login with PS5
i only play on PC basically, I must have not logged in PS5 for a while
Or yeah just log in in general
There's no codes for the PS versions but you do need to load up the game
My BF had this issue. He just opened another game forcing ff14 to close
Then reopened ff14
When you log on, it'll ask you if you are the one who made a purchase for Endwalker
Then press yes
Update gear at Bardam's Mettle (lv65 dunegon). 273 is fine but for your BLM you should use Shire since its just lv60
gotcha! thanks, i'll try it soon
Hello, back in 2019 i played the game for the duration of the free trial, and just today i decided to jump back in. I never purchased anything at all before. I just bought the complete edition of the game that is said to come with 30 days of game time but did not recieve any of it. Is this a common problem? is there any way i can go about correcting this issue?
Did you register the codd
I an 59lvl, and I see there are a loot of 50lvl unlockable side dungeons. Should I do them, or skip and do main quest only as priority? Is there anything to gain doing these that values doing them before finishing main story ?
Main story
I went on Mog Station and added the expansions to my account besides that i have done nothing else
Those dungeons are just extra sources of poetics
Aside from crystal tower stuff and hard mode primals, that's mandatory
Oh, ok tnx, main story then.
the only reason to do those extra dungeons is if you're a completionist or if you are working towards something like a zodiac relic weapon
they are very optional otherwise
(also some of them link into later storylines like void ark)
(and the whole edda thing)
might be a dumb question but anybody know if the mats and requirements to craft a Non La are expensive? looking around for a SAM glam and curious if asking a weaver to make one is expensive or not :p
How do I get to ok'vundu mok, I need to finish the quest to unlock an aether current
Can anyone tell me what weapon and armor pieces are used in this glamour?
Story takes you to the other side of sea of clouds later
I'm on the last quest of HW, quest is literally called heavensward. Is it a post hw quest?
Iirc that's the makai moon guide set, was part of the garo event and is now unobtainable
Question is it still possible to get the Toad Suit?
I'm trying to spawn Archaeotabina and I'm having no luck.
Where it is, it's far up and I can't fly to it. I've looked everywhere
But the boots are the caster boots from swallow's compass, I believe it's the bonewicca whisperer's boots @south roost
Alright ty v.v
Interactive maps for Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers, Stormblood and Heavensward. Hunt monsters / Vistas / Mining / Botany / Fishing / Aether currents / Treasure maps
Use this
how do I access this guy?
!faq serverlock
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.
Too many people online
Late at night is best
weapon looks like sharpened cane of the white tsar dyed black or something
Alright thanks
How long would you guess it would take to get Sindri?(White Mage Relic Weapon)
Any hope to still have the toad suit these days? I never did it early on?
I'm loosing my wits doing the fate chain over and over again today.
Join a hunt discord like centurio hunts and they generally ping those things
Not the upgraded version. Just the blue glowey one
the last step is quite short so you're basically looking at going through the whole relic, it's mostly grinding poetics, there's probably some up to date guides on google
how do you transfer ownership of your house to your housemate?
So.
||I was gifted, by a friend a full set of Exarchic gear.
How do I go about upgrading it further?||
Post ShB question.^
See pins for augmenting exarchic
You can't without relinquishing or moving away
Ty
so no way to keep house while unsubbed?
That's the whole point of the demo timer
You can if you're only unsubbed for 44 days
if im levelling a second job it should be through levelling roulette right?
if you unsub, do you also automatically leave your FC?
!faq altlvlguide
Is... is iLevel520 the cap currently?
No
!quest simply to dye for
530
Arigato.
yeah i was reading it and was a little lost on whether it was palace of the dead or levelling roulette
Roulettes are daily
Leveling roulette is your best friend^
Not spammed
like is duty roulette the same as level roulette?
well not only leveling, all roulettes are good for you
ah
That is levelling roulette
Add with food buffs and you get mega exp
Levelling roulette is one of the daily roulettes
how many food buffs can you stack together?
1
but isn't that like 3%?
you need to find the quest giver that unlocks the dungeon. he's in vesper bay
Might need to unlock it
quest giver is right next to the ferry with a blue quest marker over his heaad
It's a completely optional dungeon now
eh, qarn isn't MSQ?
3% is a lot bigger than one might think
it was part of msq before?
The arr trimming removed it from msq
It was part of post arr
cutter is optional
For some reason
Plus food Buffs also buff stats temporarily.)
halatali is also optional too
and dusk vigil, and shisui
so people who don't do blue quest only have brayflox and stone vigil unlocked? 😂 RIP
32 -> 41
spamming lv 32 dungeons as lv 40
meant dusk vigil. stone vigil is msq. although stone vigil (hard) is an optional dungeon and it is very fun to do with sprouts
yeah
god I hate that one
it's one where you have to use cannons to kill the mobs and the boss
it's not so bad when you are doing with people who know the mechanic
Also surprised Dusk Vigil isn’t in MSQ anymore
people who doesn't unlocked it have to spam Aurum Vale from 48 -> 53 😂
it's needed i think for an aether current so everyoen does it....same with shisui too i think
Ah, I see
actually im not sure. people might just unlock dusk vigil because it's better than doing aurum vale to level to 53
is there a way to move this?
the boss dialogue?
im trying to move that not the target bar
oh no afaik
god thats so annoying
its perfectly in the middle of target bar and it hides my dot timers
yours is default?
no
I'd recommend just moving up the Target UI element instead
or below
looks so weird 😭
is there a way to reorder the enemy list so i have the enemies not aggroed at the top?
nope
Hi! I’m leveling blu mage and I need a SCH with some free time to help me level up and learn some spells, can any1 help?? 🤗 I’m in Cactuar
Hello, im wondering if how to unlock more levelling dungeons and guildhests on my duty roulette. I only have the lvl 16 and lvl 10 ones
That's the minimum level to enter the roulette
Pretty much all story dungeons that aren't level capped are in levelling roulette
i see, thanks=)
if i start in a seperate area than my friends, when is the earliest that we meet together?
Lv15 story
nice, so the story converges
Yes it's one linear story
whew good to hear, thanks!
Is blm in endgame stuff like savage tier content insanely hard to play comparatively speaking to other classes,or is it just only slightly harder?
assuming no communication, how can i tell when my co-tank is planning to tank swap/using shirk?
anything that makes it easy to spot?
Not really... As hard as any other job. You need to know the fight and your job
Alr
Tank swaps only happen at specific points. The off tank will provoke to start the swap
Then main tank shirks
Tank swaps happen when the tank buster puts a vuln on the main tank which would kill them in the next auto
Only a real thing in extremes and up
If you know the mechanics you'll know when to tank swap
It's usually after a tank buster that gives a type of damage vuln
Usually with a shield icon
Scholar and Summoner level up at the same time?
You provoke during the shield icon
Yes
Yes, only job that does so
is tank swapping still a thing to keep in mind for ||the chrysalis when he does triple spark||?
or can you just ignore that nowadays
Lol no
Nothing for the story requires tank swap
Arr has been power crept to oblivion
No normal mode content needs a tank swap
i wish it did 🥲
It's worth using a cooldown on the triple spark but even then if your healer isn't asleep you'll be fine
how hard would it be to snipe 4 character slots in a preferred world?
ah i mean like 4 accounts haha
is it dependent on how many people are logged in? or how many characters were created on that world
Will BLM eventually get more than 10k mp?
Astral fire burns through your mana super quick
^
Rinse repeat
So. Where is the fastest place to farm FATEs?
For what
What's a good way to get materia VI? I ran the Ivalice raids for the crystals, but it doesn't give very many...
Need to do about 750 of them for a playstation trophy--
Probably just farm like shadowbringers fates to work on Shared fate levels or take up relics
The starting city-state zones have a bunch usually
To multi task
Is it bad that I still haven't installed any materia in my equipments at lv 50?
Nah
Materia is an endgame thing
I've gotten to Shadowbringers and haven't bothered with it
I just put them in my retainer
Post ShB*
It literally does nothing while levelling
Min-Maxing really
I've decided to give up the normal leveling method for alt jobs and just spam the hell out of PotD
isn't POTD harder than dungeon?
You can't do dungeons before lv 16
hey guys my right click, is a bit broke is there anyway i can change the camera turn from the right click to the left click?? thank you
Keybinds
yeah ive looked but dont think i can see any option for the camera change :/
You could already camera turn with <- ->
Q: I'm wanting to switch from Playstation to PC. I have all current expansions on Playstation. What do I need to buy in order to play on PC? Is the Starter Edition enough or do I need the Complete Edition?
Materia is turned off in dungeons if you're synced?
need complete edition
^
Ok Thank you
Just rebuy the expaxs for the platform you want, download it. Then just sign in
yep
wtff... that's wild
you still sync'd down to optimal stats for that level..
Made up for by the fact your secondary stats don't have to all sync down to what their actual caps would be at that level
is that only for synced dungeons like the 50/60/70 or if you're over the level of the dungeon
Any time you're level synced.
How far into stormblood do I have to be to get to the rathlos farm
So all dungeons.
Complete base Stormblood and you'll be able to access the unlock quest in Kugane
!quest new king on the block
uh
do we know when the next event is going to take place?
!quest the new king on the block
This hunter's unbridled enthusiasm can mean only one thing: the hunt is on!
hearty hunter
Kugane (X: 9.73 Y: 8.93)
hearty hunter
Kugane (X: 9.73 Y: 8.93)
Stormblood
The Newer King on the Block
pins has a rough schedule of everything planned up to Endwalker release
I have the base game and the first 2 expansions. I haven't played since 2017. Went to play today. Account is apparently suspended. Made a support case. How long does it take them to get back to you?
Can take a few days
Eek, ok. Thanks
is it normal for an account to be permanently suspended if inactive that long?
no
ok, so it's another factor. ty ty
are the servers borking out or is my paladin job quest bugged?
what quest and what step is it stuck on?
never mind i am just a doof
when would you guys say is the right time to start looking for a static?
I recently just bought FFXIV but I have the trial , should i try and do all the dlc before i activate the code ?
If I were to get the story skips , would I get the outfits you would usually get from keeping each story/expan
like should i max my item level as much as i can without
You would be able to obtain them from the Calamity Salvager
I think you should continue with the trial until you finish Heavenward then you can decide to redeem. You will lose out on some social feat I think
Would some of those social features include partying and making friends
I'm relatively new so I could be wrong. You won't be able to add friends or invite people to party. However, you can ask someone to form a party with you and a friend if needed
do i have to do EVERY patch quests just to get to heavensword? Trying to go Dark knight but cant get to the pillars
yes
I believe so ? I assume you mean 2.1-2.5
just follow the MSQ, you'll get there
so a new player cant just get a toon to 50 and go dark knight
No
ok ill keep cranking out the samurai
what?
Hw jobs are weird
HW jobs are the only expac jobs that are msq locked
First expansion so locking new jobs to new areas made sense at the time
the devs realized it was a bad idea after that
SB, SHB, and EW jobs do/will start in one of the three starting cities.
yea this sucks haha fortunately im enjoying the sam
There's waaaaay too much content integrated into those areas for those jobs to change
did they say it's a bad idea, or it's your opinion?
huh , i didn't realize sb and beyond jobs were not locked behind msq and stuff
but free trials can't access SAM and beyond
All expansion jobs since including Endwalker are unlocked in the 3 starter cities
I mean they never did it again so they probably realized it was a bad idea
does this mean you can start as a lvl 1 Sam ?
no
No

Wrong reply
there's no lv 1 SAM, they start as lv 50
Blame. Mobile
cause you finish 2.0 , you should be at 50 so Sam is unlocked ?
even before that, some people overlevel MSQ by 10 levels sometimes
is there information of where each datacenter is located so i can choose the one closest to me?
Florida, germany or tokyo
you can try to type !faq pingcheck at #kupo-bot-spam
All data centers for a region are in the same physical location
and choose the one that has smallest number
I thought NA DCs were in california 
I can't remember but it doesn't really matter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i thought so too
regardless doesn't matter
maybe they added new datacenters?
I'm on east coast and don't notice any lag at all
No
They're adding an oceania data center but that's not til probably Endwalker maybe not til 2022
It's a big deal when new data centers are added
I’m too dumb to do this SCH quest any advice? I’m saying “come hells or high water” but nothing happening.
i get lag from time to time
Match upper/lower case and make sure you're using the say channel
Anyone know if the Yanxian boots drops from Doma Castle cause I have been doing that for 10 runs now and have yet to see it drop
I got the rest
yes it does
Yes but rng is rng
since doma castle is a leveling dungeon you'll get it eventually, since leveling dungeons give you 1 piece of gear for your job at the end of the dungeon
If you're the job that can equip them they can drop automatically into your inventory
But again rng
assuming you don't toss any of the rest of the set out
is there any way to hide/remove this??
No
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
there is a dyeable version of that set
Yes it was in say since it shows up in public chat. And it was correct lower case and upper
its bought with centurio seals in ishgard, the asuran set
And punctuation?
And to the correct npc/location?
Screenshot?
Oh thanks
are free companies members of just your server or your data center?
Server
Anyone doing the Akh Afah amphitheatre (extreme) unsynced?
If you're 80 you can solo it
Hell you could probably solo it at 70
Also not that kind of questions channel
Oooo ok
Yeah, basically any job at 80 can solo the level 50 EX trials unsynced.
hey friends is there an inn in uldah where i can put stuff in my glamour dresser? i got some veteran rewards and they prob go there instead of in my retainer inventory
Yep, talk to the innkeeper at the Adventurer's Guild (the Quicksand)
Same goes for all three of the ARR main cities. The innkeepers are all in the Adventurer's Guild for those cities.
ohhh ok thanks!!
Veteran rewards can be placed in your armoire
Which won't take up your limited glamour dresser slots
ohh interesting
Yep, always interact with the Armoire first to see if you have things that you can put in there instead of into your glamour dresser.
Most event/mogstation/arr achievement gear can go in the armoire
do you need to get into stormblood to access gyr abania
would I be able to get someone to invite me and my fiancee to a party? we're both on trials
on aether - > adamantoise
What is the fastest way to level a 2nd job from 70 onwards?
actually I just want to level my GNB to 75 at least and take the MSQ from there cause my SAM is a tad too muc hhaha
highest level dungeon
Can I do w/ the trust system?
you can
okk
But...
if you wanna level trusts too then go ahead
Nah
Alternatively bojza
Just that I have had my fair share of pugs that aren't as great as the trust
hi guys what do i do with the msq gear i keep getting? ive been picking the ones for other classes i intend on playing but i just have so much its clogging my inventory
you can sell them on the marketboard if you're not a trial player
I kept hearing this word every now and then but I do not know what it is
might make decent money from them if they're tradable
Shadowbringers relic zone
also why can't i put my imperial clothes (from that MSQ quest) in my armoire :(
how would i know how much to sell the for @obsidian patio
You have to have done the SB alliance questline to unlock it
Only specific stuff can go in the armourie
Have not finished my ShB MSQs so can I still go there?
Need 5.1 done
you can check the prices that other people are selling the item at, and the sale history with buttons on the sale window
one opens up seeing other's people prices, and then a button on that window opens sale history
I guess highest dungeon is the way to go for me fo rnow.
Do we know when Augmented Cryptlurker weapons will become available for exchange for non-savage players?
In sea of clouds, how do I get to the top half of the map? Trying to get these stupid aether currents.
Do story
You go there later
Go come back later
You walk
So I can’t get them early? 😦
No
Dang, ty
Unless someone taxis you
Need msq anyway for the final current per Zone
UGH. This is pissing me off. So I've gotten a Book of Skylight from Papana after doing A Ponze of Flesh, but now I'm not being shown what to do next or where to go. It says to upgrade my Thyrus Atma, I need to do the Braves trials, and I thought that's what this was supposed to be? GamerEscape is being surprisingly useless this time around.
Have you considered reading the book?
It doesn't have a Read option
Use it
Not there either
Oh wait that's the other book
My apologies. Thanks for answering anyway.
Uhhh book of skylight isn’t for atma step
Pretty sure that’s for the zodiac step
No I'm done with the Atma, I'm just trying to get it to the next stage
That books is for the second last step to convert to a zodiac weapon
You're waaaaaaay off animus
If you can even do the quest it means you've done this in the past
Okay I see, I found where my missed point was; I needed to talk to G'jusana, who's completely goddamn unmarked
hmm so all of the primal servers have the same server time correct?
I did the Zeta weapon to completion for BLM, but that was at least 3 years ago.
good to know! considering transferring so wanted to make sure
It was also the only one I've done
Server time is universal for balance reasons
I'm definitely keeping that page you linked open in my browser.. maybe it'll spare me an unnecessary headache..
Who would be dumb enough to do an arr relic to completion let alone doing it again
<
< did all 10

Gamer escape guide is better imho but have fun
does teamcraft have memory leak issues? it seems like every time i come back to the website after a long wait it's crashed
It's all running client side so it'll depend on your own pc and it can easily get messy if you have large lists
where do i see a MSQ list for stormblood
On the wiki
doesnt show everything
this is ridic wtf 40 hrs im STILL doing olsd content
What do you mean old content

What the heck are you waiting for, for 40 hours
Stormblood
Which Stormblood duty
^
the msq is that long
????
It’s half as many quests as ARR patch
I took longer lol
im at primary agreement which is like halfway
Eh, it's fine tbh
The only time I waited for 40 hours was a Stormblood alliance raid, as a tank, at 2 am in the morning lol
can i change facepaint in game without fantasia?
yes
just making sure but is there anything special I should be getting to level up faster? is there like food buffs or something. In terms of wow there's like heirlooms but I doubt this game has that lol
at the aesthetician
sweet, thank you 🙂 does that include getting rid of it? just want to make sure
Eating any food gives a 3% exp boost
You can have no face paint yes
yep!
can a non-free trial member invite multiple free trial members to a party?
Yes
(even across different zones?)
Very new to FFXIV, like barley creating my Character. Is there any YouTube videos I should watch before jumping in to the game? I’m coming from 1 year experience from WoW
i waited 2 hrs for a trial q and it was only 5am
what food is usually low price for me to get that 3% exp? i see some at like 1,000 gil each
Literally or figuratively
Longest I had was 2 hours for HoH 😦
There's tons
Highly recommend Zepla
what even is there to watch about this game
But that’s you trying to queue for shit at 5 am
Boiled eggs are good enough and can be bought super cheap at vendors in the starting cities.
oh this is questions and help whoops
nothing is hard enough to watch a video
does collector's standard not make meticulous 100%?
How much do people charge to be ur gf?
What do you mean
Tyty
where'd you hear that from
from a youtube video
Was it an old one?
wait then why do people use meticulous in rotation if you have collector's standard
collector's standard = meticulous gives the same amount of points as scour
oh
meticulous is always good since a chance to save integrity is good
you just need enough stats
does ff14 have a website too for like a cost check on items on the market? like the average it sells for that way i know it's not a ripoff
Can i perma travel to another world if it was on preferred status?
Weskalber, your first day series don't binge it all cuz spoilers but at least watch the first few
you could travel there, you just don't get the bonus
not really, no. websites have to be sorta manually updated so they aren't super reliable
I mean world change. Like it become my home world
you can use the bot commands in #kupo-bot-spam but do note that the prices may not be accurate
oh, an entire world transfer
you can transfer if it isn't full, so try during off-hours
it's technically doable
you would need to pay
Only if your server is marked as Congested
Transferring from a congested world to a preferred world is free, but there are currently no congested worlds so that's not an option
there aren't any congested worlds atm so
does sight seeing not work with DoH classes?
if i bought a job boost for my alt of a dark knight and im still in arr can i still get it now or do i have to wait for HW?? i think i just wasted 25 ;-;
Nope. Have to be a combat class.
no you can use the job boost now
You'll get in the mail, just not instantly. I wouldn't recommend using it as you'll be dumped with a bunch of skills you don't understand/won't be able to use. But it will get you dark Knight early
okie i just got a little scared lol
So I'm getting ready for A12S as Blue mage, can't find any blue mage specific guides for it. How different is normal A12S as opposed to Blue?
No echo
this might be a dumb question, im level 50 and thought i could unlock machinist but im just doing alot of low xp quest (MSQ) seems to lead nowhere?
you need to keep progressing the main scenario quest until you enter ishgard
MSQ always lead you to somewhere
which while those low xp quests seem like they are leading nowhere, they are in fact leading to it
i have been doing them, it just seems endless lol
80 quests ?
About BLU, does every spell scales off intelligence, including healing spells?
Does bard quest gets better? I been skipping it, since it feels really boring.
Compare to SCH and DRK
you don't skip job quest.. it's very important thing to do..
You need to do job quests for some very important skills
I meant cutscene
Yeah, the expansion versions cut that number in half
You make it sound like it’s bad thing I’m skipping the story lol
ehh bards ok
I know you didn't just join the discord, so this shouldn't be a new concept
Sorry I thought you meant skipping job quest entirely
like wouldn't saying it amazing, but if you're interested in lore it does touch on the autumn war in the 60-70 quests
people are very into the story
Oh yeah, Ark you continue with HW yet
Nah, you guys and NN were really adamant about doing class quest.
i wanna buy one of those cool blue 70 weps because of the cool glow on them. Is 300-500k the usual price for those weps?
Well about that..... no I didn’t continue HW story
Still at the beginning
I’ll get to it eventually
Get to it now
Depends entirely on the server. Try using world visit to check prices around your data center. But yeah that sounds about average.
yes
Yeah but I gotta go to bed soon, gotta get these class quest to Lv56(skipping all class quest on my 80 till EW) and find these Aether currents.
You can’t complete the currents if you don’t do msq
Well I can get some of them early and won’t need to find them later 
why not do MSQ and finding aether current at the same time 😂
so you don't have to go back and forth
cause they are around the pathway while you are doing the MSQ
The field currents appear as soon as you get the aether compass, yes, but the side quest currents are tied to MSQ progress.
But I am picking them as I’m questing. For leve, yellow quest, blue quest, and class quest
If i own all expansions on ps4 do i have to rebuy all of them to play the same account on pc?
Yep
Yes but the subscription does carry over
That's exactly what I had to do
that's gross
You'll get 30 days of sub time added though
Does going into bozja sync your ilevel up?
yes, to 430
or is there a requirement
it syncs to 430
so if I have 347 ilevel I should be fine
yep
You can wear full emporers new armor and it will sync you up as long as there is gear in the slot
is it worth it to get allagan lvl 50 gear?
when do i replace my boosted gear ive been using it for 3 expansions
yes
Scavaen Gear?
is the weapon a good first piece?
As long as you have gear equipped at all it’s fine
yes, weapon > chest/pants should ideally be your first pieces
…can’t say for sure if they’re fine broken
you don't need to go out of your way to get a full set if you're still working on the main scenario quest
but those 3 are ideal to get since they'll be your biggest boosts to dmg and def
If you’re talking about augmented scaeven, it’ll be good until lvl 75ish
in the wiki it says that titantium ore spawns in the chocobo forest but there seems to be none here
im already 75
what about Accessories? or should i only brother with armor and weapon?
Msq 75
Because its a hidden node
you can get accessories if you've got spare poetics
but the main scenario quest will give you gear
the MSQ give ironwork gear? or are you talking about Accessories?
msq will give you a set of gear
won't be ironworks
but it'll be enough to get you thru msq
You have to buy ironworks, as its the best possible gear for lvl 50
if i get the full set of ironwork, i won't need MSQ gear until 60 right?
ironworks falls off around lvl 55
is the custom delivery timer seperate for each class
no
no
it's shared
I meant like, you can’t get it without buying it with poetics
Will doing the Bozjan relic weapon questline to completion carry me until next expansion? I dont do hardcore content, just casual daily duties
is it common/viable to have more than one physical ranged dps in a party in endgame content?
Yeah, 1 melee 1 ranged and 1 magical
The 4th can be any
As long as their class are unique, it's ok
Double ranged isn't exactly meta but it's late in the raid tier and there are echo buffs now so composition doesn't matter
yeah I was thinking because some of the buffs don't stack and ranged being a support role seems like it's not going to bring a lot of dps to the table either
Yeah I don't understand. It seems like it's EU thing. Even the macro are setup to be 2 melees
In JP people use D1-D4 for that purpose
So all DPS can be flexible and reclear can be DFd
when farming atma,can i do it with blu and switch to the job?
Yeah I figured that's why I deleted my messages LOL
ok thank u

If I have just hit 80 and finished the MSQ how long would it take to grind a resistance weapon and do I HAVE to do raid content to finish it
a long time and yes ...
Yeah.. took me weeks to finish my relic weapon.. depends on your game time I guess
long = 2+ weeks of 2 3 hours a day
Quick question I been using the samurai since storm blood, I tried using bm but the rotation was confusing as well as dark night. I really wanna play the story for shadowbringers cause it was really interesting, but I couldn't because the gameplay for samurai was just kinda boring. It felt like I was just moving nd doing a rotation check. I wanna get back in but I don't know who to use tht would be enjoyable. I like flashy anime moves, ne lots of dps numbers😁
but what’s the question?
you can look up weskalber’s drk guide
but it’ll take time to learn a job from 30 to 70
is there a easy way to find side quests that are around your current level?
!faq contentunlock
There ya go
For starting eureka, should I still get the kirin osode or vermillion cloak if im alr geared with scaevan?
Ahh got it thabks
haste is fat too
Eureka seems quite intimidating so I'm reading up
and fairly certain you get synced to i300 so scaevan is moot anw ...
this is close but I was thinking side-side quests
I see
i wish the recommendation function showed up side quests near our level
is there a blue mage walkthrough for best way to level it up
There's no way to turn allegory into poetics is there?
when allegory becomes obsolete, there’ll be but atm, no
They're already obsolete for the most part - I just want something useful to do with them and farming more lux weapons would be useful.
ye, only when they are obsolete for all parts
I dont know who would be fun or similar to samurai in dps but fun nd flashy
fun is subjective, but as for flashy?

you can decide for yourself ^
i think DNC might be for you
starts at 60 so you can get into ShB faster; simple to play; and very flashy :3
dancer's very flashy yeah
everything's pretty close to samurai in terms of DPS so play what looks fun
yes sam's the highest but it's within a 5% margin
DRG's also immensely flashy
dragoon is also flashy but starts at level 1 so might take a long time to see any flash
yarp
how do I get better gathering equipment at lvl 60
i only have the ones from the blue scrips
yellow scrips; job quest gears; MB; or just get to 61 and buy 61 gears to cheese all 60 and below gathering ...
the adept's attire can carry you a few levels
idk if I should push to 80 or wait till I start stormblood
how long would diadem take for 66 to 80
Yeah dancer looks fun reminds me of the Sam thanks bro
Wait leveling doesn't take long anymore
Is there an alternative look like this one? https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/e92d6ed0534
or something close
that was an answer to leveling a gatherer job; not a combat job
if i buy the game (complete edition), can i just play through heavensward and then use the 30 day free subscription period? Or do i have to start using the 30 days immediately
the 30 days free will start the moment you apply the complete edition code to your account
Oh okay
tho this is also assuming you're playing on pc, since playstation applies it automatically
random question but is there any reason why I see people in zandor with low level weapons on? Is there better scaling on them or is the scaling just normal and they want to use them.
dang, what if im trying to just finish the story before lv60 but also group with friends
do i have to have the complete edition code to be a "paying member"?
yes, you could just ask someone to make a party for you and your friends
ah ic thanks
How are u guys levelling up your dps without MSQ? Queueing roulette with DPS took 10+ mins
is there a general timeframe a mount i purchased off the store should show up in, or is it just one of those "when it gets there" things
Should be under an hour
wanted to fly friends around since they just started but i didnt have a multiperson mount yet so i just bought the big ol whale
ah thats manageable
Try relogging
account bound items can take longer
ye i tried relogging to no luck
ive only been waiting about 10 min, not too bad so far, just curious
Beast tribes, weekly challenges, frontline roulette, a dash of Netflix and YouTube
squadron missions if you have them
^
is ffxiv not working on mac 😦
i think you need to buy mac version or steam, might be wrong
They just want to use them I believe, you can equip level 1 equipment with no consequence there
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/mac/download/ Did you go here yet?
👍
hello guys
i have a question
i recently bought shadowbringers expansion about 30 minutes ago
i've been playing the base game but i wanted to make hrotgar.
I bought the expansion but im still unable to make hrotgar
is there an extra step i need to do after buying the expansion>
when you use the lvl 70 boost for white mage and open skills it says lvl 70 conjour and you only have 10 abilities under action is that normal?
if I do a 43 beast tribe quest I can only claim on 43+ higher job right?
ooo
What exactly is going on? Are you getting error messages, crashes, or unable to log in?
black screen when i press play
What are riding maps? Why are they so high in demand
They boost ground speed for mounts
So if for some reason there’s a zone that doesn’t let you fly
are they in high demand?
Like say Bozja
oh is it just bozja riding maps that are expensive
There was some issues with catalina and high sierra in the past. Some people found success by clicking configurations then hitting reset system settings. Make sure you allow FFXIV permissions as well
how can i enter mist?
so I unlocked the High-End Trial for Ultima Weapon. How much harder is the High End Trials than say the Hard Modes of the regular Trials, because I've been doing those too.

a lot harder
yeah extremes are a lot harder than hard mode trials
You should use party finder instead of duty finder for those, because nobody queues for them
better to watch a guide before going in
or a few guides even
or for old extremes, you can just unsync
by high end trial do you mean the minstrel's ballad?
yes
yeah, everybody tends to run that unsynced if ever
That one doesn’t even give anything really significant
As in be overleveled for it?
yes
ahh
So High-End just means extreme?
!quest where the heart is (mist)
The EXs and minstrel ballads go there
minstrel ballads are essentially EX story-related trials
Because minstrel ballads are the EXs for plot bosses
ok. So they're still really hard.
if done synced yes
not many people would do old content synced but there are some masochistspeople who do
I'm on the free trial. Can I use the party finder in the free trial? I swear I read that I couldn't.
You can join but not create parties
how do you stop being aggor'd to a training dummy?
Right click there’s an option
right click > reset striking dummy emnity
all right. I won't be able to do it till awhile then. Gonna have that quest cluttering my menu
i'm right clicking on it
or if you're on ps4, press square
or just abandon it
nothing's showing up
never. It'll stay there forever
thx
np
I just finished the 2.0 MSQ and its just infinite blue quests.
"you wanna redo dungeons but harder?"
don't worry too much about those if you don't want to do them, the important ones are the crystal tower questline, the hard mode primals, and the 80 msq between arr and hw
Technically they’re more Dungeon: act 2
how often do servers that don't allow new characters allow new characters? is it so rare that i might as well not try or can i try to wake up at 5am and try to make it in?
!faq serverlock
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.
So where do I get the Crystal Tower questline? I've found the hard mode primals and Odin
though my item level isn't good enough for Odin yet.
!quest Legacy of Allag
An oddly garbed man visiting Revenant's Toll has some information which might be of interest to an experienced adventurer.
outlandish man
Mor Dhona (X: 21.86 Y: 8.17)
Rammbroes
Mor Dhona (X: 30.44 Y: 12.17)
The Ultimate Weapon
Sanding It Down
the hard primals are in the waking sands
is there a way to check if a server is congested?
None are
thanks!
Excuse me, I would like to know if it's possible to switch my character from NA server to EU server without losing any progress or not
Note that Congested status is different from the temporary character creation lock. Congested status means no new characters or transfers in, period, until Congested status is removed by the devs. Server lock is only active if there are a lot of people online and updates every few minutes.
Yes but you would have to pay for the transfer. It’s $18 USD iirc.
Oh then I have gotten the quest for the Crystal Tower
Noted.
Thank you very much
should i do my crafter/gatherer job quests
Progress is kept and most of your possessions come with you too. There is a limit on how much gil you can transfer but it’s unlikely that you’ll run into that.
They’re a decent source of EXP and for crafters they unlock one particularly vital skill for high level crafting.
Thank you
hi guys quick q.. if i sub to 90 days now, will i get the veteran costume reward already or do i wait for 60 days still?
What's fastest leveling for WHM at level 51? Spam highest dungeon?
Highest dungeon yes.
HW dungeons 
Free time doesn’t count towards vet rewards but, yes, if you pass that mark ahead of time through bundles you get the rewards now, not later.
If you preorder endwalker, do you get the mounts and minions immediately?
no
Hi, anyone know how to get around the dreaded unable to download patch files error? I've spent more time troubleshooting this than I should. I've tried XIVLauncher and downloaded all the parts other than the first file.
only the pre-order items are given
collector's are given when you enter the full expac code
I have a stupid question, can I run 2 client at once on 1 PC?
Full expat code meaning what? I plan on buying the collectors edition preorder
There are 2 codes for pre-order
the pre-order code and the full game code
you get the full game code when the expansion releases
pre order simply flags you for the pre order goodies and early access
Is this a new install, or just updating and existing installation
Hi, brand new install.
You will receive the pre-order minion but not the collector's edition minion.
Thanks, too bad they don't have sub for just 60 days
There’s the 60 day cards but that’s just 2 standard 30 subs at once
they "do" but it's the 30 day rate for 60 days in time cards
Did you try restating your computer? If so try going to your documents> my games> FFXIV and the open up the FFXIV_BOOT.cfg and locate the BootVersionCheckMode. Once you locate that, change the 0s to 1s then save.
If your memory can handle it sure. Can’t sign in to a single account more than once at any given time however.
What is the quickest way to level in general, from 30-50-60-70-80? And how much could you possibly do in a day, what's the quickest you've leveled up?
Uh.... how long does it usually take to complete a Anima weapon?
Are account warnings IP based, account based, or payment method based? I asked here a while back because one of my stupid ass room mates got Gaol'd & I was wondering if it'd effect me in the future
Depends, how much stuff you buy in advance?
Can knock one out in about two weeks pretty easily
Depends almost entirely on how much poetics tomes you can generate since almost al of its activities are tied to poetics. If you no life it however, a couple weeks give or take.
They're account based. Your friend's account will be the only one effected
Mkay thank you
Your first anima is basically the longest, because afterwards you can have all the required items in advance
How do u bait protean wave
This didn't work unfortunately. I'm still getting the same error
whats the best way for me to get rid of all the materials I've mined
are sam/monk gear at a low drop rate comapred to others? i'm trying to get the sam/monk chest piece at puppets bunker and ive ran the raid 9 times so far and not once has it dropped. everything else has tho

All RNG. It feel that way, but it's all random
The only other thing I can think of is using a vpn
it shouldn't be this hard to install a game 😐
@quick star its like that. But yea its all RNG. Still trying to get the PLD sword and shield from castrum abania
wow my rng is just horrible. this is all from today and last night
these raids are burning me out
quick update. DNS change and flushing it seems to have moved it past that stage
Really? Well shit, my usual go to worked lol. I'll keep this method in mind for the future. Thank you for replying to me, most people just leave me hanging. 
yea my last resort if DNS didn't work was to use a VPN. Odd, as I'm on cloudflare DNS in the first place before changing to 4.2.2.2
is there a faster way to obtain poetics rather than dungeons?
How can I go about reporting some players? A player from an FC told another player to steal everything from our FC house that had some authority, they end up taking every furniture. I’m not even mad but that’s really messed up…
System > Support desk
That's silly
Yes, very. And to top it off it was someone I knew irl that told someone else to steal everything
I'm not sure how well it'll turn out though. The person was given that power in the first place, so there's bound to be some contention there
That’s the sad part about it
The problem is that when someone is given permission, the other party is accepting responsibility for anything that could happen as a result. Might just have to chalk this up to a learning experience and be more careful with permissions in the future.
Will do, can’t really forget about an irl friend betrayal 😦
If i bought the free trial off square Enix website on windows and I bought the official game on steam, will I be able to keep my character progression ?
if its an irl friend they are probably messing with you, no point hating eachother over a game
No it’s not messing around
Yes
But you’re locked to buying everything through steam when it comes to content
Thank you I was panicking for a min, and that’s fine steam seems to have more sales than the actual website
if they have sales on their website they cut out the middleman
meaning they get more money
thats why they hold more sales there
Excuse me
So you saying square Enix windows version would be the better option??
It is whatever yes junto think the square Enix version goes on sale more
There’s no real advantages on using steam other than having the ability to use steam funds which can make the sub cheaper or the game/content itself cheaper
Depending where you live
Well this is my first MMO and the one on steam with all the content was 20 bucks vs the 60
And i live in California
It’s up to you
You get locked to whatever you choose from now on and will have its perks and downsides
Square has more sales
Steam has less sales but you can use the Steam wallet for stuff
I didn’t know there was perks or downsides to buying it on different platforms because it was all PC to me but in the long run it seems the membership fees would be cheaper on windows version right ?
if u already use steam buy it on steam if you dont just buy it normally
Sub fees are the same
Membership fees is only cheaper when I said it because of price conversion of some countries
Since you’re on the US it’s the same
If you were on a third world country where the dollar is too strong, Steam would be a better option
Got itttt
Because Steam has their own conversion rate and it’s cheaper
Hi! The only way to do a dungeon as blu mage is unsynced?
you can queue in as a premade party with every slot filled
4 for dungeons, 8 for raids
Oh, so, unless we are 4, the dungeons will always appear locked?
