the rest of the game is downloaded by the launcher
ty! you still can thankfully
elemental armour can go into the dresser yeah
is there a way to stop a person from sending FC invites other than blocking them outright
i know why i see so many people with their tag now
You can set yourself to busy
just spam inviting everyone
Hi there, does gear matter at all when leveling and doing main quests? Like I usually do the smiths training quests for that set of gear (at lvl 10 i think it is) but everything afterward is not as good as it so I get kinda confused :T maybe it depends on content??
It’s because the gear from the hall of the novice isn’t craftable, which gives it “High-Quality” stats.
And gear being HQ makes it have better stats than gear of the same level and a bit higher that isn’t high quality.
Ok, I missed the tooltip. How do you craft more than 1 item at once?
the brand new gear is pretty good for a good while
you'll get gear that outdoes it eventually, dont worry about it too much.
MSQ should have you covered
Ok thank you all so much ❤️
You can’t. Only recipes that show a number by their icon above the needed materials get multiple made at once.
I got a ton of materia in my inventory. Can I safely dispose of it? got a bunch of level 7 and some 8
do you get more money for turning in hq leves? or is it just exp
Got it. I just want to clear some of my inventory since I got it almost full
More money too
ok thnx
Ah got it, found it
fastest way to get bitter memories?
And stuff like fire crystals. Are they easy to replenish?
I have no idea what Im looking at
You farm magitek in bojza
In groups spread across the map
You kill 100s of mobs in short time frame so drops rain down
Or just be small brain and do 6 anti towers
@alpine shadow @modest igloo it works!! thank you both i really do apprisate the help!!

is this why all my leveling roulettes have been anti tower lately
you mean 50/60/70?
You mean 50/60
antitower isn't in leveling roulette
I just buy my shards/crystals/clusters from the MB tbh
Ah I see
I'll probably do that too
Can't be bothered to mine it all for nowq
Btw. I'm leveling using the crafting log. Is there a reward for crafting everything?
Or should I skip the ones I"m overleveled on?
Achievements if you want them
kk
And nothing fancy
Mostly for fancy tools
Not good tools: pretty tools
whichever its in, I'm getting it a lot
Since Poetics gear is pretty trash what else can i buy with it?
what level are you
62
Ironworks, shire and scaevan is the best gear at 50, 60 and 70
you should be using shire gear then
You should be using Shire
It's i270
Where can i get shire
idyllshire
100% on this, use the poetics gear for those levels
Idyllshire or Ishgard sundry splendor
Hello I have been working on my relic for the first time. I am at the quest 'change of arms' but the thing is I can't accept the quest from Zlatan. What are the requirements to unlock this quest?
You don't find better gear than Shire until 64 MSQ or the 65 dungeon
or over at foundation there's a rowena representative
That's the loathsome? You need to do delubrum, which means hit rank 10 in bojza and do it's story
oh okay. thanks
You.need to progress the story to Zadnor for all relic steps
Is anyone getting an BSOD whilst playing FFXIV with the stop code whea uncorrectable error? I have also posted it in #technology-discussion as well.
hope you aren't overclocking
Could that be the cause?
are you able to do your lvl 52 job quest?
then you're probably working on post ARR still
and can't do the 50-60 heavensward job quests so that would be why
Yeah Im in Defenders of Eorzea questline rn
the 52 job quest gives you the trait "secret of the lilies" which unlocks the job gauge
and afflatus solace requires a lily to use
So when I hit Heavensward Ill be good?
Cool ty
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
This
So the blacksmith vendor doesn't even have iron ingot? Wat?
gotta make it
It only has mats up to lv15
Where do I go to start weaving / gathering
You're on your own afterwards
weaver is uldah
Dang...
miner is uldah, botanist is gridania
Weaving is in uldah. There's one gatherer per city
Gatherer and Weaving go together right?
All crafters and gathering go together
Yes
Any guides for that?
You can ignore Fisher and culinarian for the most part in terms of sharing stuff
i did Culinarian and Fisher last
But do all the crafters & gatherers
Do gathering first
Any good guides to follow?
yeah, just click the recommended gear button
there's a doc in #doh-dol-lounge but can't find it for some reason
okay ty
1-80 google doc guide x_x
yeah
Against what?
defense have tiering, minus -22 def doesn't mean it's worse
Recommend gear focuses on main stat
is there something i can read on this
Strength, intelligence, dex etc
ahhh okay
All jobs only use 1 main stat
so those are more valuable than def and magic def?
You're a paladin so you use strength
Recommended gear is slightly wack in ARR cause tanks can wear melee dps gear
ahh
It's fiiiiine for the most part
im guessing until i get to later game
Probably a stupid question but when do I get my first shield as gladiator? I'm halfway to lvl 12 and have a shield ability but no actual shield lol
Gear is standardised at 50
Do your job quests
what does that mean?
Ty ^^ so gladiator guild?
It means it gets role locked properly
Yes, your job quests are highest importance
ahh so ill only get gear for the job im using
hey guys, just bought this on steam and its give me 2 codes to enter, starter edition and shadowbringers, where do i enter these codes? ty
You'll still be offered fear for other jobs during story
You just take the gear for your job
!faq mogstation
ah ok
I see 🙂 Best get back there now and then and check for new ones I guess. Thought MSQ were the most important
Job quests give you skills
Necessary skills
You won't ever get shield lob for example if you didn't do your job quests
tyty
Can someone help me with my BLU quest. I need to learn the Mind blast spell
You can solo it unsync and learn it, it's guaranteed to learn, same as glower
Or just throw up party finder and let anyone join
How do I set it up as soloing it
!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.
Turn that option on
where people get their costumes?? cause i went to the optional items and none of the sets werent there
hi all, am on Chaos (Moogle). How difficult would it be to get a Delub savage group going? Have people tried recently?
Thank you
Depends on the costumes.
There's alooooooooooooot of ways to get glamour.... Various armour pieces you like, crafted items, various currenices..
Everything is glamour at the end of the day
what's the gap like between exarchic and cryptlurker gear?
any way to make the icons on the minimap smaller? They're obnoxiously big
thinking about buying exarchic gear but i'm a little confused about upgrading gear
On Mogstation glamour is under the "costume set" category. @leaden ginkgo
From 0 to 20 ilvl depending on if the items are augmented or not.
Exarchic is 510, augments to 520.
Cryptlurker is 520, augments to 530
DRS is done via discords. You'll need to find the chaos DRS servers
so ideally you would want cryptlurker gear
Construct 14
From Bojza and Brought with bojzan clusters
so is exarchic worth getting if it's like stepping stone gear?
If you want to have immediate access to endgame content Exarchic is the way to go.
thx for the info guys
How do I go to Lavender Beds? Do I need to be invited to a player housing unit to viit?
You need to do the quest "Where the Heart is (Lavender Beds)" located in Bentbranch Meadows.
you don't
Ah, I found the "select" button left side haha
Or you need to be in a FC with a house in one of the wards.
you can just talk to the ferry skip at the docks in central shroud to go to lavender beds
all the quest does is unlock it as an option at gridania's aetheryte/ferry skip
Let me guess. The housing market is just as hot as it is in real life?
Hotter
Seven hells
And 10x more blood thirsty
from where i take other jobs quests ?
Can i have my chocobo heal another player 
is the launcher generally bad for downloading the game dead slow, usually have 200mbps but this is gunna take hours at this rate 😂 😭
Only if they're in your party
oh okay thanks
Your chocobo will automatically heal other players in your party based on their internal algorithm.
And you can't command it too iirc
rouge / samurai / dancer these are the jobs that im so interested in
Question about the support, I accidentally redeemed a game code to the wrong account, I was told in an email to reply to the ticket if I wanted to transfer the license to the correct account, will replying to the email be enough or do I have to click somewhere on the support page to respond to the ticket?
nice to know 
email is good enough
You'll need to own stormblood/ shadowbringers and be level 50/60 to unlock Sam and dancer respectively
Sweet, thanks
well some of them are just simple costumes like summer etc.. its hard to explain
Rogue is in limsa and you can't access that until level 15 in the main story unless you started as arcanist or marauder
Rogue can be picked up at the Rogue's Guild in Limsa Lominsa. Samurai once you have a class at level 50 and own Stormblood from a
NPC near the Flames headquarters in Ul'dah, and Dancer once you have a class at level 60 and own Shadowbringers from an NPC near the main aetheryte in Limsa.
Yo! I'm really tired of my monk class atm(lv 60. - completed heavensward) and dpsing in general it seems. Would you guys recommend that I boost a healer, which I've always been and loved. And continue the MSQ with the newly boosted char... OR Level the healer from scratch which I really do not want to do..
Leveling from scratch will make you better at the job. Also healers have stupid fast queue times so they'll be easy to level
thank you so much 
and healer queues for dungeons are generally fast which means it wouldn't take too long tbh
I'll always recommend against boosting a job cuz a) I enjoy job quests and b) it helps you git gud
I would agree with that, yeah
Thing is... Healers aren't that hard for me to play, ofc this means dpsing while healing. 30 levels is still at least 24hrs of leveling, no?
I have a bunch of lower level materia I never bothered to use. Should I just merch them?
Idk, probably less than 24 hrs tbh
if you're on a preferred server its pretty easy to catch back up tbh
1-4 combat are popular enough on mb. Anything else below 7/8 should just be sold at a vendor
What's "combat" btw
Red purple or yellow
kk
Hello
What Materia do i use for my Astro?
I read on google that most of it were direct hit rate
Should i go for it?
wasn't sure if i ask here or healers lounge so i did both lol
!faq balance
Has meld priorities
for det vs dh, its mostly a personal preference. DH if you want to hit harder, Det if you want to play it safe
how come i can log into the mogstation, but i cant log into the lodestone? same email, but for lodestone it says wrong password
Is it possible to instance into a raid dungeon with an undersized alliance?
does clearing a dungeon with trusts give tomestones?
yes
24-mans need 3 people, one in each party.
Though you may need more if mechanics require it
Like Labyrinth’s atomos pads technically needing 12 people, but can be done with like 9 or 10 using jank
ye i was talking to you @cursive terrace
weird, btw you login with username, not email.
that might be a difference
What materia is best for GNB? Also the name of the materia would be greatly appreciated 😂
Savage Aim for crit, Heaven’s Eye for Direct Hit, Savage Might for Determination, Quickarm for skill Speed
does doing the dungeon in Eureka also give you Hydatos crystals

What do I do if I'm trying to complete a lower level leve quest that requires I weaken a mosnter first, but my jobs are one-shotting them?
Use weaker equipment, and take off gear
BA itself does not give crystals iirc, but the FATE required to enter it and the support FATE do
Can confirm I had to take all my gear off and keep my weapon on to do a low level entry leve
@worn flumethanks
Yeah, this isn't working. imma have to buy a lower level weapon kek
even auto-attack? 🤔
lmaooo
autos scale a lot
I don't blame him though I had to do that too 😭
does this game have like a guild timer? I have to wait to join a new fc after leaving one?
Does download/upload speed affect how smoothly the game runs?
Auto worked, nice
no
is there a sheet or something that says what lure can be used where?
I probably should've asked this here: does anyone know if Lost Excellence works against Gabriel's Fully Analyzed when dueling him or does it have to be Manawall or a tank invuln
It works
Ty. Will he still knock me back through Excellence?
Yes
cool. appreciate you.
Cause manawall gives heavy which stops the kd
Excellence doesn't
Just surest/arms length it
Ontop
👍
Well, I want him to knock me back into the pillar
Just making sure it doesn't make me immune to knockbacks
It's the AARP benefits.
Thank you.
was just beginning my journey of doing all six duels without cheese
Nope
He cuts through ALL tank immunity
Hallowed doesn't work
Excellence is basically hallowed
Okay. There has got to be quests in Norvrandt to get my White Mage's Item Level to 430 to do Grand Cosmos.
And the current item level is 410,
No quests give gear
You're on your own. Gotta do raids like Eden and nier
Also go get your 430 gear from Grendolt
You Should be much higher than. 410
Isn't that after 5.2 content?
Of course
Which means go get your job gear
ok how do I channel aether into alisaie's blade?
And. Since I am level 80. I also have access to the alliance raids in Norvrandt
Doh!!!
With your job gear nd any decent accessories you should be 425 or higher
Yes I know. coming off the dying gasp and all
Even before doing that
Farm arnarout, twinning and akademis anyder for 430 accessories
You mean Amaurot.
Can just skip everything by buying HQ exarchic off market
Hmm. How much is that even worth
1mil, give or take if yoy world hop for better prices
Oof. I don't even have that kind of gil. let alone have nearly 170k gil to my name all from doing MSQs alone.
Run daily roulettes for Gil from the daily bonus, especially if you can fill the adventurer in need
You can get like 10-20k per roulette from most of them, not counting whatever amount you get from the duty itself or any sellable items
Is it worth the bonus to contribute more?
Yes
That can take weeks even if I was to play everyday.
There’s basically no reason to prematurely end the triple turn-in leves
It adds up daily
Oh wait. So "triple turn-ins." I should always make 3?
And the armor I looked at from the Exarchic Collection is also worth a million gil each
Give or Take
If you can stomach all roulettes but Guildhests, Normal Raid, and Mentor, that’s like 100k Gil a day if you hit all adventurer in need bonuses.
Million gil each???
Are you wanting to buy multiple sets?
That's a fucking world hop and a half right there
For each piece of armor or accessory, yes.
Yeah that's a hop
Goblin has been wack
I think zalera is pretty cheap?
Brynhildr might be
I was able to grab a full set for 500k
I am on Balmung now
I know. Cheapest first
The cheapest for an Exarchic Cane on the Balmung Server is 108,672 gil
Does anyone know how to get your earrings/etc. after you preorder endwalker?
Where can you find your pre order code? I bought it on PlayStation and the email has an order number but that’s it
Fully close the game
Then it’s been done for you
And relaunch it
On Zalera Server. It's 243, 995 gil
And then follow the prompts
Thank you, i will do just that
Now here we go. Brynhildr Server offers the same cane for 99,299 gil. When I looked at the MB cheapest first.
Got the cane and that increased my Item Level to 425.
Check balmung as well even if it’s a bad place to even stay in, their prices end up being low
They did
Yep
I has question
In Dohn Mheg how do I not get turned into a plant and then a toad by the final boss
The rest of the set. Either come up with the gil myself, or find a friend that I know on my server which I do not have many of that can make it
It's a daze then conal cleave
Wait the plant one is a glare thing? I didn't see the eye 
Yep
Yeah it’s a glare, I know the eye shows
He then turns randomly at someone for the toad cleave
guys do i have to join a grand company and do my little chocobo quest to mount up >?
So watch his facing
Yes
Yes, it's literally available after thaf
Yes
It’s required
alight thank you 
EVERYTHING is locked behind main story progress
What's the retainer level cap?
80
their cap is your level in the job you assigned them
based on your own level at that class
whatever your level at their job is

Is bis needed to clear tea or it doesn't really matter
it's been long enough that it doesn't matter too much anymore, but it'd be good to have
So it doesn't change much overall?
it'd definitely contribute more to damage and kill times, but you shouldn't struggle with enrage with current tier gear, food and pots etc
I have completed the bozja questline; which NPC do I trade Mettle to for Honors?
there's an npc at the zadnor base camp, somewhere to the left of the spawn point if I remember?
thanks!
the Resistance Councilor
how often does server status change? my friend wanted to create a character on my server which was open just a few hours ago and now it's not
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.
i see thanks!
congrats
Feels like an environmental waste
Oh right. Main reason I even got into crafting. Desynth
Probably go unlock that after dinner
what to do with happy bunny in pagos?...
Use the carrot item in your key items/duty list
you should have a carrot in your key items
And it directs you to a chest
Use the carrot key item they give you to find a treasure coffer
right! ty ty
be mindful tho
You can put it on your hotbar for easy use
bunnies are gonna lead you to your death....
yeah it works like the compass it seems
possibly
They can also die from aoes
I have to be level 60 first to unlock the dancer class iirc, right? Just wanting to make sure xd
Yes.
i'm elemental lv 20 0%, so I guess death is ok hehe
Thx
I'll lose nothing
You lose experience and can delevel if no one can raise you or you return
AFAIK it does nothing except open up things to buy from the OIC officers at the GC the free company was made at.
Being in a different GC from your free company’s origin doesn’t matter
My computer got stolen, I want to swap from PC to ps4 temporarily, do I just need to buy the base game? Or all the expansions
I already had everything including end walker pre-order
All expansions and base game
Is it okay for me not to pull adds for cloud of darkness?
the clouds?
you wouldn't need to buy the preorder if you don't need it, but you do need it if you want to play endwalker
During dog fight
The plants honestly don’t seem to get tanked half the time
It’s chaos
As for inside Cerberus, the Unknowns automatically aggro onto people
Well I didn’t wanna MT but they told me to stop voking. I knew adds were coming up so I had stance on, they suggest I shouldn’t have pulled adds.
there is a lightly enforced convention on NA that party A deals with Adds, party B goes to the Belly, and party C is responsible for Chains
Nowadays all DPS should go into the belly
even though realistically there is no reason that roles would need to be designated out like that
Yeah I had A so I was pulling adds but boss kept aggroing me. Other tank kept saying I should stop voking boss.
So I have to buy every expansion if I just want to use my PC account on ps4?
Under normal circumstances, the only way you're going to take aggro on the boss is if you provoked it or if you are hitting it hard with your stance on and the other tank is semi-AFK
I wasn't there, so I can't say what the circumstances were in this case
So should I have not pull adds or should I use my skill more slower. Yes, I would turn my stance on and off.

I'll just put it to off usually..
Yes, you need to rebuy the game in order to play it on another platform. You'll get 30 days of sub time as well
but not sure what's the culture in NA
Due to playing controller, it’s difficulty trying to target outside tank to shirk
Complete Edition, or Starter Edition + Shadowbringers
you can't shirk to another alliance
Wha?
Any EU players playing on NA datacenters? Have you noticed ping issues? Thinking about switching to NA servers to play with few people 🤔
Some classes become very bad to play with and you have to react way more quickly to aoe markers or mechanics
You sure you can’t shirk other alliances? Everyone was saying I could... also apparently GNB can generate a lot of hate easier?
Maybe in the 50’s due to having a better kit early on, but at 80 all the tanks are pretty equal in aggro generation
Yes I’m still in 50 content
Hi. How do I choose the summoner specialization? I have hit level 31 and done the jobs for the Arcanists Guild but now there is not a quest marker above the npc's head and I don't see any other one in the Arcanists Guild hall.
!faq job
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
Do more story
Oh, so it is that I am not past a main story line quest?
Yes
ah, ok. Thanks
Slyph management as stated
Is there a glamour related title?
some do
Now that I am 50 should I be doing 50/60/70 Dungeons instead of Leveling Dungeons? It seems like a lot of the Leveling Dungeons are crap XP.
no
No
if i go max height aura with the mounts look big?
50-70 dungeons do not give good exp
Ok Leveling Duty it still is then
@fading aurora this is max height male au ra on the t rex
Its just when I pull a low one it seems like really bad XP
You don't spam roulettes
hmm not roulette, queue it manually
Oh, I have been spamming Roulette...
That is how I leveled to 50 on this job, Leveling Roulette spam lol
@twilit archi wish i could see how big my twintania is on AU RA male max height compared to a female hyur on min height
If you eat before going into a dungeon, does the effect carry over into the dungeon?
Yes food is persistent
yeah cause it last 59 min usually
Alright thanks 😄
So I should just be Qing up for manually selected level 50 dungeons?
iirc twintania isn't one of the mounts that scale
not even on lalafels?
What changes at 51?
You do dusk vigil
You get back to proper levelling dungeons
Do I have to unlock that in Ishgard?
if a mount doesn't scale, it doesnn't matter what race you are
its the same size period
It's a blue quest in coerthas western... Falcon nest area
yeah like cerberus and ceremony chocobo
how do u know which ones do and which dont
Thanksa
they don't scale
i saw a lala on a cerberus and it looked like an ant on a dog
multi-seaters flat out won't scale
if they did it would be very awkward depending on the passenger
oh no im imagining it now
afaik there isn't really a hard rule for mount scaling, beyond the multi seaters
but i could of sworn the shadow bringer dragon mounts look 5x smaller on lalas
Oh it's there a Fashion Report guide
gwibers do scale
yeah, you can type !fr in #kupo-bot-spam
but it usually available on the weekend
now it's too early
Oh ok
hi! I hope this is ok to ask here? for the past month or so, everytime I try to open ff14 on PS4 (not pro), it just says "connecting to playstation network". nothing will necessarily load beyond that point? I open the game and it immediately goes straight to that, no other loading screens - I've also left it alone for hours out of curiosity and it never loads. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, as well as the "bypass" by checking PSN status. it's the only game that does this, so I'm pretty sure it's not related to my online connection? does anyone know of a fix for this, if there is one?
what are the diffrences between raen and xaela apart from skin color?
Horn colour
i didnt even notice that
Raens are white horn, xaela are black
is that it
scale as in height?
Their scales
On their skin
on their body
oh u mean that
Also some skin tone choice differences, unless that’s more on gender
already said skin colour :d
Derp
steam has stormbringer on sale for $15, but I have a square enix account. Is there any way I can buy stormbringer on steam and use it through mog station?
If you already registered the starter edition outside of steam then no
On sale on green Man gaming for the non steam alternative
wow thanks haha
Ok. So if I wanna be able to use desynthesis going forward with no level restrictions, I gotta basically max out my DOH job?
No. Level 30 is all you need
Unless you want to craft items to then desynth to level it up
Usually how long does it take for you to receive the Fat Black Chocobo code through Twitch?
Ah okay awesome hah!!
Okay, I'm either an idiot or I'm missing something. I've logged into Mogstation and resubbed but I can't login to Lodestone (keep getting wrong email/password). Are they different credentials to Mogstation?

is there a way to see a history of where I've logged into FFXIV from?
So I can't get mettle buffs before clearing Dalriada atleast once?
Thats so frustrating :D I just missed it
FXAA looks awful, any other AA options?
If i played back in Stormblood can I come back and play for free up to a certain level?
You'd have to make a new account for the free trial
what level does that go til
60
60, it includes HW
it's 30 bucks on steam right now.
Well worth it if you want all the current content and a month to mess around.
I don't regret it, I'm only 4 days in and like level 31 drg, and 55 fishing loo
lol
Ugh
On that crafter
Does that crafter make the item?
There you go
I have to level up that class too?!
Ugh this game
Again this is why you level all crafters together
How do you level them all together 😮
You have ixal or GC turn in unlocked?
And make your own stuff
No Ixal, but yeah gc
||why did moenbryda had to die? Did I miss the part where the staff wasnt working yet?||
she was holding that aether channeling thing in her hands
Might be a better question for #archived-lore-spoilers. I forgot the exact details of it
sry, i thought that was for discussing coming content or such
It’s ok. 👍
What happen if i delete my Square Enix account and then access to ff14 PlayStation version?
You can’t play.
I can't remake a new one?
@celest coral yep, though Culinarian desynth is pretty worthless most of the time
You basically only get water shards/crystals and a lot of useless sand
I can’t remember if deleting your account unlinks the tied accounts but I’m assuming no
So you’d need a new SE account and new PSN account
On occasion you get something good from fish desynth but it’s like a stupid low shot
Only super specific fish
That sucks
I sent an email to square
And most of those fish are in ARR so you only need like 150-180 levels

You don’t “have to” but why not
You don’t have to pay for a bunch of materials
Hrm. So should I work on DOL first?
They are simpler
kk
Do leveling roulette for the day if you haven’t and then spam the highest level dungeon that’s not level 50/60/70
Fisher is it’s own can of worms, so just do miner and Botanist to begin
They function the exact same as eachother
kk
Yeah, fisher doesn't sound like top priority
I'm just mass desynth'ing all the crap I got from leveling bsm
to level up your retainer!
Hrm. That reminds me. My sub expires in a bit over 2 weeks. If it expires and if I'm just spending the next few weeks leveling up my crafting/gathering jobs, do I need to resub at all lol
Oh wait. I need MB access
Oof
is it possible for trial players to join a guild?
No, FCs are not allowed
hmm if you don't have sub, you can't play
thats what i thought, thanks for clarifying!
Does Astrologian not get an AOE damage spell til lvl 62?
Don’t the healers get their AOE around 45ish

Hi. I got a quick question im trying to stream ff14 on discord so my friend can watch but there is no audio?
How does one level a Blu
Kill overworld monsters at or a bit above your level
question about purchasing the game and going from trial
Don’t do fates, they don’t give good experience
if i bought it from say green man gaming - that one would be compatible with the PC trial (not from steam) correct?
Yes
Alright!
alright, i died something black
i put it in the amoire
i put it on in the glamour plate creation... and its back to its original color
alright, is there a way to it it such that its just permanently always that color ive dyed it as
i know glamour plate dyes aint permanent
did anyone submit their butterfinger code and selected character but havent gotten the mount yet?
Don’t put it in the armoire, it wipes the dye off
Armoire removes dye doesn’t it?
If you want the dye to stay put it directly in the dresser
gooood dammit
And that explains the dyable AF1 gear
Press the “request delivery” button on the mail menu and wait a bit
Character-specific stuff can take up to an hour if the mogstation is busy
is that on that mog station or in game? sorry im new to all of this
In-game at the mail moogles
For Astrologian, you generally only use the Regen sect unless another Astrologian is already using it right?
In terms of pure potency, yes
ye
you both can use regen
Thx
tyvm
oh good to know
just in case it wasn't explicitly said (I saw it mentioned but not sure if you saw) you'd lose all access when the sub runs out

Hey so i own shadowbringers on steam and wanted to buy endwalker on the pc (not steam) version. would i need to re buy everything or jsut the latest while logged on with the same cridentials
you would have to rebuy everything and effectively have to start over to use a non-steam code
would i have to re level, or would i be able to use the same account and all?
you can make a new service account under the same mogstation account
but you'd have to make a new character
Is there a way to make it so the focus target hud priorities your effects first?
but for normal targeting, it's always prioritise your debuff first
Yeah idk why it doesnt copy normal targeting
why i wanted to see if i can make it the same
If I start the game as a Free Trial character, and then purchase it, would I be able to carry the original character over?
yeah, that's how it works
once you upgraded, you just have to download the rest of the missing files and continue playing
Any lvl 60 DRG weapons? I have one that's lvl 50+
Hey everyone, I've been interested in playing ffxiv but I'm not exactly sure where to start in terms of purchasing the game.
you can start with a free trial
You may want to try the free trial first if it suits you
It doens't have a time restriction, only a level cap of 60 and a few restrictions that don't hinder the gameplay too much
okay. I am downloading the trial but just for future reference, the game is subscription based correct?
Yes
I don't know the details though, I'm on the free trial myself. You can look it up on SE's website
You buy the full game, get a free month, then pay the months you feel like playing
Didn't know about that one 🤔
I see, so does the complete edition come with game time or no?
Game time?
yes
The free 30 comes from buying anything that includes Starter
Only for the first activation
okay awesome, thank you everyone (:
also what is the endgame like, are there pve raids or something like that?
Not exactly endgame but there are 24-player raids
will the common makai gear ever come back? It looks so cool but I dont think ill ever be able to get it ;_;
That was part of the Garo PvP event. It ran for two and a half years and at present it seems unlikely to ever come back. That may or may not change in the future. We have no way to know atm.
damn i wish i didnt go hiatus for ffxiv during that time

may i ask for some help in raid guys? i just need to clear it once and i cant find any party

oh idk that one, but if you can queue up for it in duty finder, then I'll suggest just waiting
it takes a while
i was waiting for like 4 hours in queue duty
cause people avoid that one like the plague
so it’s normal to queue for a long time for that one sadly
i want to finish it so bad to continue unlocking bozja
alternatively you can try a #recruitment channel for your dc
or ask your FC for help
or last resort, do a /shout in limsa …
I just bough Endwalker Collector’s Edition from steam...it is in my DLC...so what do I do? wait until release? I heard people got lvl up neck or earring item from it...how to get it?
i just came back to the game after 9 months
in the cd keys section of your steam library you should have 2 codes. one for pre-order and one for the endwalker itself. can't use the endwalker code yet but the pre-order code can be entered into mogstation
once you've enter it, the pre-order bonus items will be mailed to you shortly thereafter
how to open cd keys section from steam?
thx

what does this mean? xd i just got it and im trying to open it :d
check your belts for "fabled belt of fending"
525 itemlv with crit vs 530 no crit for samurai which is better
you can't have more than a single unique item at a time
toss it or put it in your chocobo saddlebag
so if you already have it you need to move it to another inventory
or get rid of it
ohh i see thank you :D
can i just switch to a diff class at ease, or do i have to join the guild or do a quest to unlock it, then i can switch
Joining The guild is the unlock quest
so i wont be able to switch to that class unless i join the guild
Correct
there are other factors too but based on just that, the one with crit is most likely better
^ generally true
ilvl/main stat/weapon damage are always going to be the higher priority unless you're worrying about BiS, thats when secondaries are going to be looked at
Where can I buy a sledgehammer for miner offhand?

I wanna try fashion report, and I got the stuff for a 100, do I have to wait on Friday for this week?
Or I have to wait for Friday for another change
What's a cheap way to get decent gathering gear??
hey there folks
got a ? when there is binding and untradable which i know it is stuck to that character but to sell it at the npc is there a waya to make get more in than what you sale than the regular npc ?
depends on your definition of decent. the gatherer job quests give level appropriate gear and the ones rewarded by quests are usually cheap on the MB since everyone has them. you could also try crafting your own if you can gather the materials yourself.
that is a long wait
oh i clicked the wrong tab sorry questions and help
I see
What do the icons next to certain weapons mean?
do you have a screenshot of what you mean?
0 normal quality, 1 high quality
if gear can be HQ, always go for HQ
NQ is not reflective of its actual strength and will be a few tiers down compared to HQ
what does enable direct chat do
They use macros for that I think
For crafting yes for battle its a bad idea
^
I believe it makes all keyboard keys open your chat with that key.
This is useful if you're playing with a gamepad and you only use your keyboard to chat. That way, you never have to open your chat, you just type.
let you start chat without having to hit enter. generally for controller players
the timers only go in one sec increments
it's because actions 'queue' when you press them, meaning they register a few times to ensure you actually get the action off even if it's on cooldown
your gcds also get faster with more stats
oh wow okay ty lmfao
meaning macroing actions is generally much less reliable to actually get them off
you also cant react to things properly
yeah maybe you're misunderstanding what streamers are doing / using
the enemy moving will ruin your macros
every competent player will let you know that macros are terrible for combat
if he's doing that during raiding idk wtf he's doing
might be botting
you can use it for combat, but its just a bad idea
hello! I was curious how long it takes to get from lvl 54->74. the classes I was using for MSQ are capped and i dont want to waste xp
like for overworld mobs its fine but not optimal
there's no actual macro advanced enough to play the game itself without it being total dogshit
in actual content that is
liable to say he may have been botting if it was literally just a 'click this to make the game autoplay'
Where/how do I get the Lv 60 BLU weapon Incendiario?
bought for 800 allied seals at the blu mage mamoolja
I have SMN level 54. So far the class feels so weak. and its tool kits feels imcomplete. I am basically apply 2 DOT and spam ruin while waiting for energy drain CD so I could spam couple Fester off CD....
need to beat level 30 of masked carnivale
you need to finish masked carnivale
I was playing SAM, so campared to SAM, SMN feels so incomplete at the similar level.
it sorta just does that and gets more and more of its kit later on
generally classes are just like taht
the reason why is because you get SAM at 50 so they designed it to feel somewhat complete at level 50 in terms of base rotation
if you want to feel power play BLM 
summoner starts at level 1 so that's why it's comparatively less complete feeling like that
doesn't mean that summoner's weak at that level despite its weird feeling toolkit
should do okay damage
Can someone explain how the dlc work in ff14 because im gonna buy it
though yeah even at that level blm hasnt gotten its big magics yet
i was hoping by level 54, SMN might be more complete. but I guess not.
It'll feel more complete by 60
If you buy the recent expansions all of the older ones come with it for free
you don't have your big finisher right now
Wait until you get 70 SMN
So if I buy the complete edition is that smart
got it.
Yes if you want all the expansions
yes
Its a symptom of being an older class
you will get
- base game (unlocks restrictiosn, gets you 30 days of sub)
- shadowbringers (which contains all expansions you need)
I'm so excited to play it tomorrow when I buy it
If you're planning on getting Endwalker tho I think it's only in pre-order right now
yes
they had to be reworked over the course of expansions, adding and removing abilities
endwalker does nothing rn without having the earlier expansiosn unless you just wait
^
Also if you're still not sure if you want to buy, the free trial is always there
or if you intend to take it slow, you can do free trial until endwalker comes out
but free trial is only until HW
If there anyone that wants to play with me dm me
pretty much yeah
either are valid, just depends on the person
I'll be on tomorrow
Hey guys, i'm going to bite the bullet and do a home world transfer to Tonberry, before i do though i just want to check - will it take me ages to log on any time I want to play? I know Tonberry is pretty busy. I don't mind waiting a couple mins but probs above like 10mins each time would kill the vibe
If it takes you longer than 30 seconds to get through queue then that world or dc probably crashed
so no
omg amazing
It doesn't take long at all
thank you
Even expansion launch queues rarely take 10 mins
i was worried I'd go through with the transfer and then regret it
unless the server has problems
wonderful thanks so much!
regarding menphinas earings which im about 500% sure i equipped.. does it.. work in dungeons?
that 150% kinda just looks like the armoury bonus to me erm..
