Hey, its my first time contacting support and getting a ticket, do support email you after you filled a form or the email you when the process is completed
dungeons
i know account binding gets "muddy" when you involve steam, but if im playing through steam, do i pay my subscription through steam or the mogstation?
any1 know why im getting a crash error (11000002) when im in loading screen trying to login to the game?
You always do it via mogstation, you just get an option to pay via steam wallet when picking how you pay
does anyone know any sites where you can track fates from

How often does the game go on sale? I just started playing around a week ago so I missed out on the recent Square Enix sale. I already bought the starter edition on the mog station so I can't take advantage of the steam sale unfortunately. I'm hoping for another sale soon so I don't have to stop playing since it's so fun so far.
Green Man gaming has it on sale
For non steam people
These are probably the last sale for endwalker
oh wait actually? and it'll work on the mog station without any risk like the key being faulty?
yeah i think i got a game awhile ago on there for a friend. I'll check out the FFXIV sale rn. Thanks!
It also has sale on endwalker preorder as well
I think the Endwalker sale is over. I looked at the pinned link and it says the coupon code is invalid. But the other expansions are still on sale.
Rip, oh well
if i buy the complete edition, how many months do i get of subscription ?
30days
oof
As standard for buying the game
can i use the entry subscription with the complete edition ?
entry is generally what should be used
It doesn't set up a sub
unless you want a ton of alts
ohh i see, so i buy the complete edition, then set up a sub ?
hey, i just got the free trial, this the first mmo i’ll be taking seriously cause i’m trying to impress this girl i have a crush on any tips for beginners
After the 30days yes
!faq newplayertips
can i set it during the 30 days ?
You can but I think it takes over, not sure
Hey, coming back again to you guys after quickly checking online, do you have any recommandation when it comes to server ? My understanding is that we can visit other servers so it doesn't really matter but do we have limitations?
!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.

Thanks @faint flare
okay a question , do i need ironworks gear to reach lvl 60? i dont want to waste my tomestones on armor if it's somehow possible
im leveliing my alts jobs
thanks btw is it easier to play on keyboard and mouse or controller
Ironworks lasts until 55
which one is more optimal
Both. It's preference
Many high end raiders use both
and is there anyway i can pay to get stronger or is it all grinding
i guess that all depends on what you are used to using
but imo keyboard is more functional in mmorpgs
ah i see
The cash shop just has cosmetics
looks like i have to stop playing genshin impact and grind this game for 12 hours a day now
my question is more precisely on tank gear, since i level my dps jobs in potd, would i have hard time with mp gear to tank dungeons until 60?
If you're still using ironworks or less after 55 Yes it's going to be rougj
Tanks should stay very ontop of their gear
no, i have my shire for 60+
Poetics are piss easy to get
is there a designated area anywhere that shares hunt related stuff?
!faq centurio
also what’s the quickest way to get strong fast?
Gitting gud
so there are a ton of options here on gmg for expansions. if i buy the online complete edition, i'll have all expansions normally (as in without collector edition items, but i can upgrade later). which would mean i only need to buy Endwalker individually then to have all the expansions and play Endwalker when it releases. am i understanding this correctly? i don't want to mess up and buy the wrong bundle.
After that, progressing main story to level up
You are correct
Also: preordering Endwalker will give you early access to it and a +30% earring that scales to your current level and job
so to register a code for the complete edition on mogstation, do i click to transfer to regular service ?
Yes
awesome, thanks. That's such a great deal then. ill buy the complete edition and if i'm still having this much fun when i'm done with that content i'll preorder Endwalker. I appreciate the help!
Have fun
As a person who just finished 5.0, what would you guys recommend? Just keep rushing until 5.5 or start building on some other things?
Oh and milk the free trial as much as possible
Most side stuff needs you at 5.1 or beyond
Start the raid series, msq will bring you back to the source to start the trial series and start the nier raids in kholusia
There's also the best dungeon theme in crystarium and another dungeon back down in amaurot in the tempest
oh boy
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
is gmg really trusted ?
apparently ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Just report it to them and see what happens.
Can I do a higher level Leve with my main job and accept the quest rewards on an alt job?
ty
is there a way to change worlds while logged in or does it require you to log out every time?
Does it matter what company you join when you get to choose between those 3?
you can world visit to other worlds on your dc
via the aetheryte in one of the main cities
Yeah world visit at the aetheryte of the 3 starter cities
no
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
thank you!
Oh, wasnt that impressive looking gear so I'll go with my starting zone ^_^ Thanks!
where do i find other new players to play with?
Try talking and discussing stuff in #beginner-lounge
oh, one more thing. i heard that there was going to be an event to get the regalia mount, is that live yet? i would hate to miss out on that since from the video i saw they mentioned that it was a big thing that it was coming back.
no, ff15 rerun is in sept
ah okay perfect, i have plenty of time to enjoy the story so i won't have to rush. and my bad for not looking at the pin. thanks!
is there a way to skip any of the relic quests after getting the 535 relic or do i have to do each quest fro every class
You don't have to do the haunting/vexing step and the 180 step again
Everything else needs to be repeated
what raids are the best ones to do for the second to last step of your ShB relic?
yeah, that one
Can the free trial be played on multiple devices as long as it's all the same account?

no
a1 / a4
o1 / o3
e1 / e3
first and second give different mats
That's fucked
personally i would sujggest zadnor for its mats from the skirmishes
Well buddy can't try the trial then
He has to make a new SE account >_>
is this the same dude from yesterday?
Yes 🤣
oh my god dude
He went to try today and asking for a registration code again
did he even get that far on the pc trial?
Remember I said I logged into his shit from my laptop and figured the issue out
So until Endwalker gets released, no more quest or story content?
Well apparently free trial is a per device thing
Not account
that... doesn't seem right
Yeah, we're done
There'll be 5.58 but that's just unlocks and adjustments
did you tell your buddy to repeat the steps you did?
Mhm
And it only takes him to confirmation code again
you got it to work before and after today
i'm just gonna have faith in your friend that he's doing it correctly and it's fucked
let's see
I had the same issue he was at first tryin to sign in with his info
And then I found that vid and followed the steps and it worked
i don't think it's a device only thing because
- that doesn't make sense in the context of how accounts work
- it didn't work before or after you signed into your laptop anyway
And he's been trying today and had the same problem where it asks for code
The before thing is because of some funk ass bug on FF side

so, he's signing onto a steam free trial account
after clicking 'i currently possess a steam trial account'
it directs him to the registration code
He clicks play on the game. It asks him whether he already posses an SE account. And then he enters in info and it takes him to a page asking for registration code
okay that's what i ifgured
so what i want him to do is repeat the vid but make a new SE account
He clicks play from his steam library and it takes him to an FF login screen. He enters info, It takes him to that pic
steam launcher is pretty finicky for free trial
usually fixed by closing and relaunching
maybe even have him reinstall it
The launcher you mean?
Because game isn't even installed yet
Game doesn't get installed until you get to the mogstation style login screen
try this
- have him reinstall the launcher and logging in again
if that doesn't work - see if reinstalling the launcher will let him make a new account and repeat the instructions from the start of the video
and if that doesn't fucking work - just do it on the standalone launcher at this point, man. shit's fucked
yes
reinstall the free trial launcher
I know the moon next to the exp bar is rested exp, but what are the daggers?
Is it some pvp thing? I’m in a pvp zone
then its probably pvp
ah ok
i do not see daggers on mine usually ever
Mans doesn't even have another email to use 🤣
Fuckin F bruh
It'll be up to him but he's been debating saying fuck it and just buying the game so

idk man your friend's been super patient so maybe he would just straight up enjoy the game even with the slow early-game
so the purchase may be worth it anyway
especially with you playing, right?
fuck it even i'll help him out
He's played other FF games apparently and loves them
How many hours takes only MSQ + job quest for 1 job, for each expansion? 30 hours?
well the game is on sale? 20 bucks no harm no foul
I've told him about the slow asf ARR and says he doesn't care so
depends on your queues for the job since you'll be mostly doing roulettes and dungeons
but i'd say it's around that per expansion ie every 10 sets of levels at worst
Hello, glam question, I've seen people wearing the 2B thigh highs, and also wearing shorts over them, but the leggings are in the leg slot, is there shorts that are in the waist slot or something like that?
How do people do that?
I'm stuck having to find dresses and longer stuff to cover up everything.,

Some chests might have some skirt type stuff attached to it
yeah those are dresses
but I've seen people wearing the tights and having shorts at the same time
I wasn't fast enough to inspect the person
hmm
Yo how do i decide what server to play on? I have good ping to both NA and EU depending on how important ping is in this game
I recommend going NA if you're from NA, and EU servers if you're EU.
that would be most logical
Server choice doesn't matter, pick whatever has the lowest ping overall
as for the EU one's Chaos is more filled with french speakers, while light is more common english speakers
yeah I'm on Chaos as well, but there are a lot of french people still
So light is better thanks
Light isn't necessarily berree
What is the website for hunt mark locations?
Both chaos and Light are primarily English
question about the xivquicklauncher, whats the name of the plugin that changes music? or plays different music for progging savage
Im gonna need the opinion of someone who isnt in light or chaos cause i dont trust the bias lol
they are both good
i can confirm Vinyl has no bias
yeah no difference really
Moogle being French and Shiva being German is the only difference
I guess ill just random number generator?
95% of the data centre is still primarily English
yep, just exclude moogle and shiva and you're golden
There's no wrong choices so go whatever
!faq worldpick
I blame you
It's paragon actually
wtf

h e c k
@modest igloo
also do you guys use the quicklauncher?
Ye
I'm console so 
whats the name for the musicplugin?
Orchestrion
hey so can i buy really sick cosmetics with real money
/porch to open it
some
and if so where can i find them
Maybe, taste is subjective
but 99% of the good glam in this game is not bought with real money
ahhh i see
yeah this isnt bdo my friend lol
i use mostly dungeon gear and my glams are good
there is decent glam but no pay to win
I’ve played to many pay to win games now

Wow, toxic
Pay 2 win is toxic
idk how pay to win is toxic but aight
It tells you the pieces if you wait a moment
@bleak nimbus only thing i didnt get from raids, dungeons, job gear or mb is the gloves which are a.. 60 day reward for being subbed i think
so yes it is very possible to look great without paying any money
actually i paid for the hair
hey i play mmorpgs like a merchant what class would be best if my goal is to make as much currency as possible?
There really isn't one

You do ALL crafters and gatherers if you want to make money from that
You can become an omnicrafter and sell crafted gear but you'll need to finish the main story to access good materials. And what's selling well will depend on your server
I'm trying to get tickets for my first chocobo.. but I tried to do a "hunt" but it says im not authorized?
How do i authorize to do that so I can get marks
!faq mount
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
Oh lol..
To buy the thing
Ive bought stuff on the marketplace and been turning them in haha
For UWU if I use the crystarium belt of scouting will it have the same stats as if I used the augmented crystarium version?
since its all synced down
Yes
Thanks
Is the deity choice important or just lore?
just flavor
nothing in character creation matters to gameplay
well except starter job i guess
since you get a different 1-15 story for each starting city
if i buy an apartment in limsa now and want to move to ishgard when it becomes available in endwalker can i just demolish my current one and buy a new one or can you only buy one apartment ever?
ok thanks
Does any non-starter job not require you to be done with ARR to unlock other than Samurai?
where do i request for someone to make a party for me?
All heavensward jobs all start in ishgard
You can't enter ishgard until you start heavensward
Which jobs are Heavensward jobs?
dark knight, astrologian and machinist
No this won't be changed
i dont remerbe where i hear/watched but someone said i get a mount at lvl 30? i just hit lvl 30 but no clue where i can train or obtain a mount

^ after joining a grand company
i see, very intresting, really rewards the grind then. i’m so used to genshin imapct where all the cool weapons are pretty much locked behind a gacha pay wall
wut im only on lvl 16 story and all i gacve bee ndoing is the arcanist quests and the mian sotry ones how come im so high in lvl compaerd to the story?
so does this game feel like sword art online
no
xp boost
like do i have a choice to be like a shopkeeper where i can sell stuff to people:)
No
damn how much xp does it give?
its like double xp i think for road to 70

oh sorry
but like do u see other players running around in the world
and can you challenge them
how do i leave a fellowship group
I can't seem to find this area. I'm doing this for my hunting log 
!faq meta
lmao
For equipment we have no more use for, are market prohibited, and we wont be using for glamour. Is the next best thing just to desynthesize them?
the label is wrong, its in southern thanalan. not eastern
Character armoy is starting to fill up fast
oh and should we keep all items we get
Ok thank you
like the map itself is correct
that or vendoring them
no
so if im lvl 30 now i can choose a job now right? in stead of being an arcanist i can become a scholar or summoner right?
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 they pop up after that one or do i do em now?
yeah so i need to do the 'Sylph Management' for the to show up
are leves around the map worth doing while leveling?
cuz im only on lvl 16 quest 'fire in the Gloom'
not for combat jobs
oh we can get a job to!?
ty
jobs are just advanced versions of classes
ooh i would love to be an alchemist
anything we can do with triple triad cards we already have collected?
Unsellable, untradeable. just trash em?
Trade for mgp in gold saucer
oh, sweet. ty
so i bought shadowbringer on steam then when i went to activate it on steam it says invalid does anyone know what to do?
apply the code on mogstation
Is there a button to target the closest enemy to you?
Tab
i tried that too and it says invalid\
do you already have the base game on steam?
yup
it says its already installed on steam but when i start it still says storm blood

Check your mogstation. What does your account type say
it doesnt have the circle on shadowbringer
when starting a new character like around lvl 21ish what do you have to do to be able to switch your job? is it a certain quest line?
To swap jobs you need your lv10 class quest done
got it to work now
Whats the easiest melee dps to play with high latency (200ms approx)?
I kinda wanna go monk but i heard that’s difficult with high ping?
Dragoon probably, maybe samurai
Oh, didnt expect dragoon. Interesting… thanks
Opener might be scuffed but
dragoon's probably your best bet
no speed boost, most of its ogcds can be single woven
some are mandatory or else you clip anyway
Noted thanks!
Is PotD faster than dungeons assuming instant queues around level 30-40
No
OK
Dungeons are Always faster assuming instant ques
I get a level per run that's pretty good right? I never knew dungeons give multiple levels
1 level per POTD*
@faint flareah, it seems there's a new offer for 22% off on GMG that works on Endwalker! perfect timing.
it's generlaly equal if your queues for dungeons are ass
You get set xp in potd...dungeons xp can be boosted
Does (HW spoilers) ||Final Steps of Faith|| take long to queue?
As a DPS, apparently yeah. Then again every queue is a long wait for a DPS
Treasure maps? You can gather 1 every 18 hours
you just gather yeah, only shows up in nodes past 50 randomly
How?
They randomly show in level apporiate nodes
Gatherer?
yes
Yes
Weird
!faq communityfinder
Or that channel
how many seals does it cost to get a storm chocoboo issuance?
I just saw someone change the stats they want on their gear through like a node can someone tel me what that is ?
Hey guys, I've got a question that you probably answered numerous times but I wanna be sure about that. I'm trying to join Louisoix or Spriggan servers but they are restricted. Should I wait late this night to have a chance to create a caracter?
Yup, or early morning. Keep an eye on https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/
I've seen worlds open/close/open within 30 minutes
Thanks for the info! I'm trying every 15min lol
sure thing, good luck!
It can be rather random too, it may be open near peak times.
regarding the density of these servers (and after trying all this afternoon) I'm not quite sure for peak times
relic quest
if you have no idea what i'm talking about then don't worry about it
So i have few day left for 30 day trail and what i do before continues to play?
are you asking how to continue after your subscription ends?
grab an RAF code before your first subscription payment for in-game items and bonuses.
just to be clear the trial is infinite
RAF code?
Recruit a Friend
if you're talking about your sub running out then yeah do the refer-a-friend thing with someone
oh, i figure out about this
they give you a code, you put it into your mogstation then, and you both get rewards
/r/ffxivraf works great. just used it myself this morning
mhm
grab someone's code, then be sure to post yours when you're subbed
What else can you unlock from commendations? I have the chocobo crown.
I grab RAF code already
two mounts, some barding
I brought complete edition for PS4 digital, but i don't have game time code.
and a few glam items
put the recruitment code in your Mogstation, then start your sub
Oh boo, that sucks. All I need is the chocobo crown, tyty.
omg you is right and i get email
do i need to have the piece of armour in my bag to use glamour on it? or does it just add to a collection?
to glamour it directly you need to have it in your inventory at the time you apply the glamour
there is no automatic collection
but there is the glamour dresser
!faq glamour dresser
'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'
Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.
'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'
Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.
so i cant just sell it and apply glam at a alater time :v
"What is the Glamour Dresser?"
The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.
"How do I use it?"
In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".
When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.
When does Samurai get a set of blue gear like White Mage does at lvl 50?
you need to put it in the dresser if you want to keep it
70
oke ty

all jobs get their first job specific set at the max lvl of the expansion they were released in
so 70 for Samurai
hey im trying to get cloud deck ext but its not at the same place as the extremes for the other weapons
am i at the wrong place?
it only unlocked up to cinder
All current savages and extremes go there
You need to finish the weapon series to unlock it
Guys, how do i get the Horn of the Last unicorn? It says wolves den but apparently it's a bit harder than that.
Queue for pvp, lose twice or win once, then buy it
Ty
can you make it so I don't have highlight a bar to use a skill from my crossbar?
what armor set does Fray wear?
how long does it take for cash shop items to appear in your mailbox?
Hello, I'm a new player. Does the Warrior's "Interject" skill work in the same way as WoW interrupts? Are there caveats? How do I know which spells I can interrupt in FFXIV?
!faq interrupt
I don't believe you can get it. If it was available to get, it would be in the ff14 online store
thanks
Do you guys know why i keep being offered food as quests rewards post shadowbringers?
BLM question... why would I Tarnpose out of fire when I could 'use' those charges to minimize mana costs for ice spells and vice versa?
Prior to Blizzard 3, you need 2 ice spells to get into ice
While transpose gets you into ice for 0 cost
Dropping AF/UI is bad. You want to Transpose between the two stances, and later, when you get better stance-transitions, use it between pulls to avoid dropping the stance
Food good?
In honesty, it's better than gil at that point.
Cause they don't give you gear. Current post patch quests never give you gear at all
So they give you food instead
Question if you're a Dancer GNB DK all the classes after ARR playing in ARR story how does that work for your skills?
but I still would tranpose out of Ice and take on those super high Fire mana costs? That's normal?
Even expansion jobs get all their early spells at different levels
Yes, cause fire spells are buffed in Fire stance
By 40/60/80%
I was curious as most of the missions right now in ARR are still lowering me back into the 55's and GNB the class I want to be is 60 currently at 58 so I wasn't sure how that would work but thank you VT
What's the cooldown of formidable?
how does dyeing gear work
if youre in 55 range you arent in arr lol
I'm way over level for the place I'm at right now they keep nerfing me down fighting the forest primal or that's where i stopped to start grinding for my actual Class

If the gear is able to be dyed you right click and dye it
Provided you have the dye of course
And unlocked it
does my friend need to be in the same server as me ?
or can he just be in the same data center
I started playing the trial and have square enix account , is it possible to transfer that account and character to steam if i decide to buy the game from steam ?
Yes
It's the one time you can swap
Also on sale on green Man gaming if you want to do that and not go to steam
thats actually nice info , thanks , i had currency conversion issues with the enix account
how do you get cosmetics for you chocobo
can buy them/craft them using various rare materials
also some are from certain vendors or achievements
a few drop from Palace of the Dead/ Heaven on High
Fete boxes as well
how am I supposed to do the level 53 command mission, i keep dying to that slime trex
What’s the name of the dungeon
Can someone explain to me Ocean Fishing? Currently I am using https://ffxiv.pf-n.co/ocean-fishing as a guide to show me what fishes I will get and I understand the Baits and Hook (!), (!!), (!!!) but what exactly is the priority or point fishing in the ocean if I am just going to desynth them or throw them away?
Schedule for upcoming ocean fishing voyages with information on blue fish, achievements, and more.
The only reason to do it is for the achievements and I guess scrips
Also, I already have the mount and pet
Experience/scrips and rewards for achievements
So other than that, no point?
my launcher keeps crashing any advice?
It's a very good source of gatherer scrips if you need them, but other than that..
what is the purpose of marking bosses?
But do you have the gull & dolphin?
and how do you mark?
yea
Can be helpful to note target order, but tbh the area way marks are much for useful (and used to denote locations for mechanics)
area way?
sohm al
and how is marking done?
Party menu has signs (for targets) and waymarks (for spots)
I currently own FF XIV on Steam-PC, along with all the expansions. If I wanted to play on my macbook, which product do I need to buy to add a license key on the mogstation? Do I need to buy all of the expansions again, or just the $19.99 starter edition?
Everything again
Run the benchmark first to see if it even runs tolerably (or at all)
If it's a new m1 MacBook I don't think it does
Much coveted mora, 1 million accumulated points from ocean fishing
thank you!
and also is there a better way of tab targeting than having to mash tab to scroll through?
You can try switching to the cone, but no, not really
In a boss fight you can select all targets from the enemy list, but against trash you can't target anything you haven't generated enmity against with it
Which is not helpful if you're trying to pull as a tank or chain dot as you run on healer
Alright
So I'd need to spend $60 on the complete edition again? That is very unfortunate.
ah ty
or you could start using parsec
Oh yeah I can do in-home streaming easily, however I want to play simultaneously with someone else using my computer, running two clients would be difficult.
ah
I can't recommend buying the mac version at this point personally
I can't imagine support will hold long with Apple transitioning from x86
Can you boot camp?
does mac support VMs?
That's a good point, and I am likely getting an M1 mac soon.
I could do boot camp, and that might be my best chance at this point. Thank you for the help. 🙂
Oh that's neat
How about if I wanted to add a license to my PS4 and play on my Steam Windows account?
Do I need to purchase everything again there?
Same situation, yeah. Unfortunately.
That's honestly just ridiculous on SQueenix's part. Thanks for the help though! 😄
Yeah, it's wild to me that the game has a monthly subscription and you need to pay for each system, for each expansion
IKR
Lucky for me, I don't play games on my Macbook lol
I want to play on my ps5 when I find one.. but not for another $60
Well now I'm talking about playing on PS5 and PC at the same time
but it looks like I'd have to pay $60 for the "complete edition" and another $40 for Endwalker
not "same time" but you know, same account
any idea how to sort a FC chest? its kinda annoying since you can't right click sort, nor can I right click my items and store it in the chest
i just got to the quest where you need to join one of the 3 city thingies is that just a Rp choice like the guardian and nameday and such or does it affect my game play like give me different traits/spells and such?
fluff
And fairly easy to change later
What job do I pick to be the samuraiish character?
ah just RP stuff then cheers
grand company? those are all the same except for the gear they offer
they have themed gear
as in the look or actual stats?
Any
It just needs a lvl 50 to unlock
Ah
do you have a page to show the gear and such?
eorzea collection
And the expansion stormblood downloaded
it’s a website, it should have the sets
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
very specific question:
any femroe enthusiasts can double check that this is an appropriate sea wolf name?
Ipsuwyda Elilsaelbwyn <- I know ipsu isn't lore correct, but just the rest (second name specifically)
Link is there
do note it's not fully up to date
true but I assume the grand company stuff would be accurate
ah yeah got em btw what is a fending set? you got the war sets and magic set but what is fending?
war sets are for tanks as well
Fending is tank gear
I really dont like any of the casters but I want to do all the role quests which means I have to level 1 what should I do?
which one do you hate the least?
ah ok cheers
frankly I'd suggest rdm since it's the easiest caster and starts at level 50
red mage best but that prob dont work for the role stuff?
i'd say summoner because you can just use scholar and then speedrun the summ quests
what's the name of that one crafter medicine that reduces the durability loss on crafter stuff?
What’s the name of this gold saucer game where you sit on a roller coaster and you shoot discs in the air to get points like that buzz light year ride in Disneyland
air force one
Thx
ok im doing the coverning light and i cant even when i watch the vid for some reason since that vid was posted and i doing this correctly and for some reason that mechanics been changed and im know im doing this correct why is the damn script change to what ever to freaking failllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
im soooooo damn mad
pardon?
what
was the mechanics modified since the vids was posted
what is "the coverning light"
For what
Nothing has changed
heroes gauntlet?
it is too way way way far and hey something changed
what are you soposed to do for the big trouble in little mhigo
I saw that Gatherer's venture yield is based off Gathering stats, so it's alright if I skipped the accessories right?
quest
for advanced jobs can I pick any of them at level10? example,if I pick archer,can I play ninja?
Its not changed at all
nothing has changed mechanically about heroes' gauntlet.
Yes
there is a problem when he jumps every where
got it

that is where the fail and i know to get behind the rock and still fail
you have to be standing inside/under the rock
i did that too but guess what the boss jumped on it twice and it is over
you can't be under a rock someone else is under
i know its a stack marker but your stack buddy is the pile of rocks
you can't share one with another person
nothings changed about the instance, the mechanic was just solved incorrectly
well there is 3 rocks and i remember doing this the first time and the duty ran out and if i rememer it becomes 3 rooks so where am i going to go and to move to another rock still a fail
there are enough rocks for every member of your party
What it says to do?
if there somehow is a soft enrage where there's only three rocks then that's still user error - a lack of dps meant you got to that point
acertain the youths imtentions
Talk to the highlighted ones
Wait, S/A/B rank marks are seperate from the clan nut marks?
ah if it’s that one item you have to interact with, it’s hidden behind a tent
ok think i see
do dungeons run with bots give the same exp as ones with players?
it took me a bit to find that one
b ranks are part of the weekly clan nut marks
going to try again
killing them without the hunt bill awards you nothing
but when i do this i dont want to EVER do that instance again ever
only the A/S ranks award stuff without the bills
thats a topic for #rants. incorrectly performing the mechanic doesn't mean something has changed but rather that you just need to do it correctly
you just did the mechanic wrong
¯_(ツ)_/¯
A ranks respawn every 4-6 hours so 12 a ranks across all 6 zones 3 times a day per server is really easily a quick way to earn hunt currency
Wow
sorry but i guess yall pointed out that something different from that vid
Holy shit
someone playing through the dungeon may not know how to do the mechanics correctly either
So just do the 1/2/3 nut hunts while waiting for Hunt trains for the weekly/A/S ranks
that vid isn't wrong though
honestly just go in blind, not like dungeons have any terribly cryptic mechanics
trust npcs always do mechanics correctly.
well some one got really damn lucky on that vid
that is true, trusts don't do teh mechs wrong
save for like... one dungeon where they're kinda sneaky.
no?
well its not technically wrong to do it that way in dohn mheg
they did it correctly. that's not luck.
jumping across stuff works its just hard
yeah i noticed that trust is placed correctly but you have to be in the correct position
our gap closers just happen to be coded differently
I didn't mean that, I meant that boss in relict
ah i see you
Yeah, they nearly got me there...
well ok i did this but i was under my own rock so what went wrong ?
there was no one but me
not enough hp?
without being in the instance as you we can't tell what you're doing
low on hp, moved out too quickly, had vulns or was taking some other damage,
well i droped after that thing on my head and it kicked me in to that ice thing but i got out of that place and got on the place
If i want to play this game on playstation and pc would i have to pay one sub or two
he was jumping on others but i was ok till he hit me
you have to pay for a license for each device
So 2 subs?
mac and pc and ps4/5 are seperate but you pay only one sub
Question: If you decide to switch Grand Companies, (I finished levelling Flames and want the Maelstrom's glams), do you lose all your GC Seals?
But thats no big deal
Pretty sure
is that in response to my question or Dreg's?
yours
Thx
Do these have duplicate protection?
I hear memex is a pain and these already require 5 clears...
yes you can't have two in your inventory at once
but that doesn't stop you from dropping it into your chocobo saddlebag/retainers
and then getting more
I meant like
Can I get the same thing twice
from it
I really want the idealized haori
question i know i had like 75% hp and i was under my own rock and i still can fail ???
its based on what job you open it as
rix we can't know for sure whats going on
maybe you weren't in the rock in time and it snapshot
it was on the first jump he got me on after the others
we have no footage of what you're doing
ok
well i guess im going to some how hope for a freaking miracle to get out of this
Any way to control which shoulder /beckon minions sit on?
Nope, preset
But is the same minion going on different sides?
Is there a quicker way to get the secondary mats for the Zadnor 180 step? I've been in Zad all day, and only four CE's have spawned. There have been 9 Dalriada's, and only four CE's.
Do the raids instead
I tried those too, but the secondary mats only seemed to drop 40% of the time
ran out of time
i have to redo the duty but this time with some random ppl and maybe i can get pass this
this is my second fail and 2 party failed with my friends
As a level 32 summoner am I supposed to use the fire finger puppet minion or the shiny green rabbit minion during duties?
seems like you guys are doing something wrong tbh
emerald carbuncle for aoe ifrit egi for single target
just swap between them as necessary
@little swift ty have a nice day
The raids should have 100% drop rate if synced
I get more of the first drops than the second ones unfortunately
The drop depends on the raid
Floor 1/2 = equivalent zadnor fate drop 3/4 = equivalent ce
do I get my job quest skills in palace of the dead?
man, feel like I've been wasting time then

@dim jetty Spriggan World is accepting new players
Is it worth levelling up a crafter/gatherer for the crystal sand anima weapon step? I did the levequest thing to get a decent amount of amber-encased vilekin but I'm not sure what to do while I wait for more levequests.
Are side quests worth doing for XP realistically? I have a 58 SAM and I’m not sure if it’s worth taking all the time to lvl MACH Just so I can keep doing MSQs
side quests aren't worth it for the xp after 15 I would say, after that just do it for the side story/lore/unlocking new content
i went to the resistance officer and i did not extreme for diamond but i did get the other 2
did i mess something up?
can anyone tell me what retainers are used for?
They're storage, market, material gathering
so I need them to sell items on the market board?
Yes
damn, how many can I have?
Two with subscription, can pay more monthly for more
Each retainer can have 20 listings on market
so I would mainly only need 2?
Unless you plan on becoming some sort of market Baron two is plenty
Or if you're really bad at managing inventory space
and how do I lvl up these retainers?
Send them on ventures
ventures I would access via GC?
You need venture coins, which are mostly purchased through GC yeah
Then you can send them out from the retainer Bell
ah ok, and where do I acquire the retainers?
@little swift
thx you and the rest of yall plus sorry for my RAGE here but i succeded with some random ppl now that i got the most hated "hero's gauntlet" out of the way and im done with it lol
what are all the current high end duties? just curious i got eden's savages but i wanna unlock more
what i do if all prefered servers are full?
Eden Savage and Diamond Weapon EX
wait?
ah
And Whorleater Unreal
Is diamond still high end?
diamond ex is, im working toward it rn
Technically the Ultimates fall into that category
Also the ultimates are all high end too
just wait for sometime but idnk how long but also depends where you trying to make a character and check the status where ppl are from and figure out when they go offline and some go to sleep and work and when ppl free up that space then you can try again
i dont have the ultimates, maybe ill LFG for the savages i gotta do to get the ultimates
but i should get those too eventually
and once you make a character on that server than you can do what you need
You need to do the savages to unlock ultimates yeah
the double xp for 90 days and 1 mil is hard to pass
yea, my fc is just dead and i just fear doing party finder or LFG but i'll eventually suck it up and do it rn tho i just cant be asked lole
keep trying and hope on the luck
Kupo bot can't tell you what a quest unlocks, right?
Gamerescape can
btw i dont mean like next day or something but like hour or so later
i had been in that situation before
how does a full party farming bozjan clusters usually work?
so if you live on the east and ppl on the west like california and keep in mind that is 3 hours behind east time
yea 4-5h will be the best period
oooohhhh
right
3/3/2 split, one tank with bloodsucker each zone
and yes Omu it is the weekned and btw it is USA birthday weekend and be ready for fireworkss
The others don't really matter at all if the tank is competent
im canadian
hm i see, do you happen to know the 3 areas used for farming?
Use the spell damage buff, plus any other damage buffs you want
does anyone know where the guide for the thm rotation is
thats cool but it is on the 4th when USA did break fron England with the DoI
like throughout the levels
i know
ok
thanks a lot! 😄
Does 50-60 just drag? Seems like this part has taken the longest. Also should I take a break and go back and focus on crafting jobs and some of the group activities? I only really started mining and it's low.
If you can get more people involved, the more the merrier as long as each party has at least one person in each zone
Post level 50 drags a bit, but heavensward is very good
are you in the lvl50 msq that barely give exp? thats indeed the worst slog in ffxiv
just wanna ask ive done all msq and post msq till in the name of the light but still cant start it
keep saying check chronicle of crystal tower
i think he or she might be talking about a crafter
but all 5.1 5.2 is finish
to me i flew on my 50s to 70 with duties with my paladin
I did MSQ and beat AAR, I am currently doing the continuation as well as some side quests so I guess that's where i'm at
Am also Paladin, might try duties
do your MSQ and class quest and duties and they go fast to me i did lmao
anyone can help?
yup. try to take those post ARR quest slowly or you can be burned out. it definitely pick up again during the 2.4 msq that leads to heavesnward
try hildibrand quest for a fresh breath of funny quest if you interested
Awesome, thanks!
whats wrong?
but one thing stay close to your lvi doing duties and one is daly and other is your lvl like if you are 50 look at the place and click on it
just wanna ask ive done all msq and post msq till in the name of the light but still cant start it
keep saying check chronicle of crystal tower
You need to do crystal tower Alliance raid line
Look in mor dhona for a 
Question about linking my psn account, it says its permanent, but I'm only using my Playstation temporarily. Can I still access my account from my pc?
find this quest at mor dhona:
!quest legacy of allag
Yes
oh is that the on with the castrum marinum quest raid?
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
Ty!
@north viper check that quest. this leads to the 24 man crystal tower raid
which is needed for msq progress at shb
The "permanent" means you can only use your XIV account with that, specific PSN ID going forward for PS purposes. That's all.
I see ok ill check it
btw i have a question - what class is alisha which is alphinaud sister ????
Rdm
red mage ?
it say it does not exist?
As of stormblood, anyway. I don't know before that.
they are both arcanists before that iirc
i think she is arcanist like alphi but prefer to summon an aetherial weapon vs carbuncle like alphi
can you elaborate more? wdym it does not exist?
well alphinaud use the book but alisha does not but she is the sword only and she has a way with it lmao
i like the way she had the sword up in the air and staked it to the ground and that is soooo cool lmao
she technically have the book that can be combined with alphi book (seen on coil story)
and yeah in 3.4 she use her book to summon sword
when you hit 80, does the xp bonus for alts also apply to crafting as well?
nvm just looked it up. it doesnt
if you get a character to stay at the city with the big Aetherite and it helps all your characters but slowly
and correct me if im worng

Best way to make money using grand company seals?
this guy's hair
I don't think Cid's hairstyle is available, or I've just never seen it around
So how does the broken heart mount join together?
Prob glam prisms, which always sell
Thanks
Glam prisms or ventures to use on your retainers
@slow isle Finding I have a ton of armor/weapon pieces from dungeons that I have no use for. Figured there's something more I can do if I turn them in for seals
Ventures are always like 18 hours if you can’t be assed for the 1 hour ones
so i wanted to try samurai but couldnt be assed to level it so i bought a boost about 20 minutes ago i logged off and everything and i still dont see it in my mail. is there something that i did wrong because i see people saying you get it in around 10 seconds.
Quick ones are a hit or miss. Mine have brought back some furniture items that sold for quite a bit. Or crafting mats that were rare
mileage may vary, keep waiting
18 hours. I guess I'd have to set a reminder on Google calendar lol
alright
should use em bc it's free passive income, they're not insanely profitable
how to level gathering jobs my miner lv30 ||cant reash higer||
i just pick up mine daily
Time to check out a guide then haha
Gridania turn ins
How exactly does Glamor work, can you unbind something without losing either piece?
Glam dispeller
Like say I wanna use a Golden Saucer item as glamor
I don’t imagine I can do much Glamoring in Free Trial?
You can
you need a glamour prism
You’ll just have less options then everyone else
also glamouring must be unlocked via a side quest
so if you haven't done that quest, you need to
actually sorry I might be wrong
I'm thinking of dyes
huh ?
google is saying you unlock glamour no matter what at lvl 15
