I've just finished 5.0, Can I unlock and get clear to every raid and extra dungeon, or do I need to advance story tru patches?
If I can, I want to left story from 5.1 to 5.55 to do later
you need to do post shb to finish eden
need to complete 5.3 story for last tier of eden
oh, damn, well, thanks for the info
but after 5.3, can I let 5.4 and 5.5 without doing and still get every extra content?
5.4 needed for last bit of SHB relic
and the dungeons post 5.0, do they also need to advance patches story to unlock?
and Nier raids?
the twinning and akadaemia anyder can be unlocked once you complete 5.0
nier can also be unlocked once you complete 5.0
thanks for all the info
how do u rank up ur grand company
You buy rank ups with GC seals. Some require you complete hunting logs or side dungeons.
you go to the npc at the headquarters, third from the left at the counters
Seals are earned from fates, GC specific leves, or crafting/gathering turn ins.
How 
reagan peppers
wut
can buy it with allied seals or grand company seals, allied seals being the much cheaper choice
theres no option i talked to every person at the company
How do you even get allied seals
!item reagan pepper
these things
either doing ARR hunts or blue mage masked carnival
can do the weekly bill for ARR and it'll give you more than enough
hi re: the fashion hunt , the easy 80 points choice only got me 36/100 , where did i go wrong o.O
do you have something equipped in every slot
you need to
you must have somtthing random?
Doesn't matter what. Just as long as it's filled.
rip another week to my cloud card 
you can try again
up to 4 times a week to present yourself for judging
oooooooooooooo
but you only get the reward for participating once a week
as well as the hitting 80+
i see
so you can still earn the extra 50k mgp
just go back and make sure you have the correct items AND you're not naked
is there a way to put a pin on the map to get guided to that location
ctrl + right click
How do I get to Amh Araeng if theres a gate blocking my way
It's an ability. If it isn't on one of your hotbars by default, you can find it in the General category of the Actions and Traits window.
thanks 1 minute cooldown seems so long
Talk to one of the Zun guys in the Crystarium's Amaro Launch. They should have an option to take you to Amh Araeng.
How long does it usually take till i receive my mounts that i bought
Depends. Anywhere from a few minutes to an entire day. Account-wide mounts in particular tend to take longer. You could try pushing the button at the top of the mailbox that says Reward/Purchase Delivery Request in case it possibly got stuck.
This?
Yeah. Logging out and back in again does the same thing as well but that button should be enough.
Yo guys. I decided to play the game again since it's supposed to be free until level 60. I already have an account with everything and I can't play cuz I don't have a license.. So how does the free thing work?
I have all these
that means you own the game
means you can't play the trial on it
you have to buy a sub to continue on that account
What a bullshit. Existing player who paid for the game has worse conditions to play than a new player?
What no
what are you talking about
So does free player need to buy the game after level 60?
if you want to
only if they want to
the trial is unlimited time but you're locked to 60 and under content and levels
I mean I own the game but don't have level 60 character so I just want to play freely till level 60
why can't I?
if you want to play free, you have to be on the free trial
So new players can play for free til level 60 and then buy the game
Trial players are limited socially and are incapable of doing the post 60 content
but if you buy the game you have to pay to level to level 60?
That's kinda bullshit isn't it
people on the trial are heavily limited on social restrictions and convenience
its not bs at all
but thats not a discussion for this channel
by objective standarts it's bullshit but whatever. I'll go look how much is the sub fee
!faq subprice
its not bs because you bought and registered the game, meaning you own a license and are entitled to the lifting of social restrictions as well as the level cap and content
you effectively get more content as well with more jobs and 2 more expansions
i think you guys have kinda missed the part where some folks feel the unlimited playtime up to 60 as a rather major boon
exactly yeti
god knows how hard some free trial folks milk the fuck out of it
^

Most active NA world ?
Any
there's no official population data
Don’t try to go on Cactuar
I'm on Famfrit and there is NEVER an FC recruitment spam here in the discord
You won’t have a good time after what happened today
maybe you're not looking in the right places
have you tried community finder
and in game there should be at least a couple of FCs shout spamming in major areas
you just have to stay in those areas long enough
Thank you
😕 Thank you for you mentoring?
lol
how do you teleport to people on your friends list that's brand new to the game?
you need to have had someone use your referral code before
so that you can have
!item aetheryte pendulum
my friend used my referral code, but i don't have that
or you can have them do <pos> and you can go to their position that way
they need to have subscribed for at least 30days
for you to earn it
the free 30 days bundled with the base game do not count
thats just the window in which a player can enter a referal code
the referred player has to physically purchase 30 days of playtime
I see, didn't know you need the item thanks
is the pvp below lvl 40 worth doing or ?
pvp requires a minimum of a level 30 job with jobstone to participate
your stats are normalized based on your role
so level and gear is irrelevant
that said pvp is a fun side activity
daily challenge: frontlines is a great roulette for EXP as well
mhm
you can somewhat level your classes through the pvp roulette :>
just queue as the class you want to level and switch to the one you want to play in pvp once you've loaded into the safe zone
interesting
What's the higher ilvl gear I can buy with allegory and with revelations, and who sells them?
What kind of beast tribe is the Namazu?
catfish
Crafting
urgh crafting okay
what's the "easy" crafting class
my fsh is 80 but i don't have a single crafting job started
how come it wont let me choose those?
they're all p much the same
you don't have the dlc
you dont have shadowbringers
Shadowbringers is needed
Where's an FC chest in Ishgard?
aha
cryptlurker is the revelation tome gear. its the highest ilvl you can buy/upgrade to
can be found in eulmore once you've finished the main shb msq
you get a free fantasia after finishing ARR
and thats the only chance you'll ever have... free that is
There’s an item called Fantasia that lets you Change appearance
(Fantasia = appearance change potion)
you can also change haircuts with the aesthetician
After your free one it costs money
nice, and Crystarium is only good to use while I get enough revelations, right?
crystarium is 490, which is last tiers tome gear. its fine to use as a stop gap while you get better gear. Exarchic is the easiest shortcut to access all casual content though
you can also augment exarchic gear to 520 :D
wanna change ur race or eyes or skin tone or watver? $10 
What's Exarchic ?
crafted gear
Crafted
you can get it from Market board
A full set is around 1m gil
kinda expensive to get the full set so feel free to mix and match with crystarium
depending on dc
here's teh pinned gearing doc again
nice, I'll try to get it crafted, I really enjoy doing it
crafted gear is going to be roughly 600-800k at this point in the expansion
for a full set
if you make it yourself, this presumes you have fully pentamelded aesthete crafting gear and you have HQ pre-crafts
If you're willing to hop around Aether, I think it gets closer to 500k, if I remember correctly though
the stat requirements to make it yourself are rough this time around
But that's a lot of time hopping
yeah you can definitely chip off a lot of cost if you hop around
And also job dependent
Is this an adult?
yes
yes
Hey, my laptop has been having weird pefformance issues where its fine 50% of the time but the other halfthe game feels like its playing in slow motion at 15 fps then after a few seconds goes back to normal and then back to slo mo in a few more. Anyone know about this or have a fix? I have already tried the common options like drivers, setting, etc.
I'll do it, I really like crafting in the game and I wanna do it the best I can
dont question it..
Lalafel don't really age
try tech
Can I be a tank as this small girl?
this channel
Yes
Yeah totally
yes you can be any class
Any race can be any class
he's gonna do it 
The recipes for crafting exarchic are learned leveling up or from master books?

Master 8, yes.
Ok, did post there but thought id ask here too nw
yeah its really sort of hard to narrow down what specifically might be going on and i wanted to make sure you were directed to hank in case this got buried
whats your hardware like for your pc
Is the clan important?
no clan is just a variation of the race
nope, just affects how you look
what is the equivalent of /spit
Are Exarchic Expert Recipes?
So I unlocked all the aether currents in the dravanian forealands but I’m unclear as to who to report to?
@kind ember i'm goign to have to ask you to move you #beginner-lounge if oyu're going to ask further question about the character creation that are largely going to be discussion based/opinionated
Whos hank? The laptop is rog zephyrus with a 2070 maxq
yes
Thank you
Would really appreciate help ty
Hank is our resident tech mentor so he's the one with the large 4head on what to do to solve problems
what do you mean report to
You don’t, you just get to fly now
if you have all the aether currents including the ones from
you can fly
Now finish blue side quest to unlock more currents , and finish all MSQ in the area, after that u can fly
check travel -> aether currents
Do you have all the green slots? if not then you still have blue qyuests to finish
all the quests should be in that area
Besides doing relic weapon or crafting, can I get a weapon with ilvl higher than 430? Maybe an NPC sells them for revelations or allegory?
only rhe blue ones
Did you not do them for coerthas west?
also check your journal to see if you have picked up any aether current quests that you didnt finish
Because it’s basically the same
with sacks of nuts you can get i440 and i470 weapons. and theres the i490 and i520 weapons
i was an idiot once and forgot to check 😔
Yeah but most likely by accident
can also start yourself on the relic weapon for shadowbringers
once you're through that you get an i485 weapon to start with
I try to do as many of thos + quests as possible
How do I get sacks of nuts and where do I use them for i440-470, and where do I get i490-520
So yeah must have done em all
what are your power settings like? are you plugged in when you play?
Thanks
shb hunts are unlocked in the crystarium near the temenos rookery and you can purchase from the nuts vendor there or in the second floor of the eulmore tower
That's gonna take a while, I wanna finish FF12 to enjoy more ShB relic weapon story more, that's why I wanted to find another weapon with high ilvl
but thanks for the info
Yeah plugged in all the time and high performance on power
the i490 and i520 require 1000 tomes and 4 kills of the eden raid tier normal mode final floor boss associated with their release
Is your laptop swapping between graphics cards?
so for i490 thats e8n 4 times and for the i520 e12n 4 times
yeah tahts a good point does your laptop have integrated graphics
When can I start the ShB relic weapon?
when you finish 5.0
but you need to do more msq up to like 5.3 to do the rest of it
great, thanks for the info. and the 1000 tomes, which tomes, allegory?
Sometimes it'll think your load is lighter because you're not at a particularly busy location and then swap...for some reason
It shouldnt be, i even changed it thru nvidia control panel
Ah, okay
allegory for 490, revelation for 520
Thanks, and how do I use sack of nuts for weapons i440-470 ?
at the clan nutsy vendors
and that is?
@wheat plume
great, thanks for all the info 😄
np
this is your only warning from me
how do i turn my sapling into a flower
you get the returner adventurer status for 1 week, after not having logged in for a long period of time
Sapling = new player.
Flower = returning player.
There’s no way you’re a sprout
45 days or more is the number
yes i am
once you pass that week you return to being a sprout
well i should be
you can be a sprout in shadowbringers if you bought a story and level skip
since you won't have the requisite play time amount to lose it
only the story completion portion
whats the requirement
168 hours (1 week) of playtime and completion of the final 4.56 msq
quest would be ||A Requiem for Heroes||
true
its a place
its the horizon teleport
@glad tree, Its a place
you have to get to level 15 or something to unlock airships and then you can go there
what peistes crave
i had the same thing happen i picked a class that sounded cool but then i didnt know that they didnt turn into the one i wanted later
so i switched at level 15
hi if my friend is in a world that has no more character creation, i just need to be in the same data center to play with them?
doesnt have to be on the same world?
yep
yes thats correct
but if you want to make a guild later you guys would want to be on the same world
you can meet each other through world travel at one of the main city aetherytes
can i move my character in the future when the world opens up?
ok so i dont have to worry about it
i mean i kinda dont have a choice since its full over there 😦
isit a hefty sum to transfer tho
I'm not sure if this is ff14 related to be exact, but what does people mean when they say 4head or 5head?
its about 18dollars usd for the transfer
its a way of saying that that thing is really smart
ouch hahah but i dont have to transfer unless we want to be in the same guild right
something very "smart"
big brain
other wise all is good
usually ironic
its sarcastic in a way since 4head = forehead
and the implication is that people with big foreheads have bigger brains
so 5 > 4
and 5head just being even bigger because 4 < 5
yep
you can also stay in touch easier through linkshells
I see. thanks
whats a linkshell
A group chat
4head is a Twitch emote
hi
hi
are alliance raids on roullette ?
yes they have their own roulette
if i leave my bird in someone elses stable can they steal it?
.. no
what kind of bird
chocobo
i joined a grand company and put my chocobo in their stable and fed it 61 grapes so it would turn purple
how come asmond playing ff14 get his own channel?
Yeah, that’s the way to use the stables. No one in your FC can steal it, don’t worry.
ok cool these people in vc are trolling me
saying they can delete my chocobo with a special method
because of the sheer amount of traffic about it that was taking over #general-discussion
I would cry if someone deleted my Sushibo. They’re trolling. 
jim is my everything

can i have more skill bar?
wow there is a command for it
under your msq thing in the top right you can see the quest you need to unlock the ability to progress the msq again
yes you can do this from character configuration > hotbar OR from hud layout
assigning keybinds to them would be done via keybinds
thanks!
like this thing
i cant show the whole thing might be spoilers
but the bottom quest will let you progress msq again
just helpful for the future
Is there a good Reddit post or something showing all the shb relic designs?
Ok I’ll look into that thank you
there are showcases on youtube too
are there places in this discord to advertise parties? Say, if I was hosting A9S us farm?
there is #recruitment-crystal for your dc, but it's not really about short term pf kinda things tbh
so not really
i have the standard edition of ffxiv and was wondering if i could go back to the free trial version and resetting my progress or something
you can not
oh
unless you make a new account obviously
Hey there lads. Is there a channel to post one's raf code? Ive been using the reddit for quite a while, posting a code per day but no one ever uses it, so I was wondering if it could be posted here. Thank you 🙂
the reddit sub is the main venue for that sort of thing tbh
not really a place to do that here, though I've seen people sharing codes in #beginner-lounge
doesn't hurt to ask there I suppose
is there any way to pay for a subscription through playstation network because i heard its done through a different site
what are some convoluted to get triple triad cards? want to be aware of those and make progress whenever
Alrighty @glossy flare Thanks so much! Itºs just 6 months of spamming codes and nobody using them can be a tad frustrating! I'll ask there 😄
All subscription payments are handled through the Mog Station website
!faq mogstation
ah ok thx
i heard the ff15 car is going back, is that true?
how long does sprout icon last ?
What’s the name of this RM weapon
Sprout icon lasts until you reach 168 hours of /playtime (1 week) and complete the final post-SB quest in 4.56
!iglam murgleis
it's the level 70 RDM artefact weapon, you get it from your job quests
Isn't that also the weapon X'rhun Tia uses?
ok cool
Does anyone have any idea how the marriage reservation plan work?
does it require both partner to pick the same plan
time I mean
huh, well when I try to pick a time that is same as my partner
It changed into another time that I didn't pick
say I pick 12:00 am, somehow it turned into 3:00 am
hmm so its a set amount of time to be married by a contract ? they should have that in RL .... and can walk away no strings attached 😛
Do you live in different time zones?
Yes
well i guess they do .. called escorts heh
The timing listed shows your time zone
i went to retrive my pass, idk why it isnt working, and when they ask me for my email and retype email i can't type @ in retype part, wtf

yeh
good morning all, quick question is it better to wait til 80 to level professions, or better to level as I level my guy
this is on the SE website ?
Wait till you finish 5.0
its on launcher
Crafting and gathering is much easier when you've already finished most of the story
5.0 is the main ShB MSQ
shadowbringers expansion
ah i see
you using PC or ps ?
PC
cool
weird...
why does my name have a green sprout next to it now. I don't think it was always there
Because you're a new player
New Adventurer Status
You have that until you've completed all MSQ up to the last patch of Stormblood and have played for 168 hours (7 days)
thank you! I guess it was there and I didn't knotice it before
is there any significance to the red and green arrows people use in chat?
indicates its a word/phrase using the auto translate feature
ahh I see. Thank you for clarifying!
what is the name of the recruiter reddit that is mentioned in the pins?
hi im new to the game , wanted to know how many days approx to reach max lvl?

Steam and non-Steam PC versions are effectively separate platforms
i have 30 days playtime and lvl 63, but im sort of slow go type
ARR is around 100 hrs 100 more hrs for HW and SB and then maybe SHB is 60ish hours
which version more popular windows or steam?
if u only follow msq that is
Leveling a second class is a lot faster than your first class though
that's way too high
More like 40-50 hours each.
That's not skipping cutscenes.
Nah
windows is a bit more flexible in that you can make use of various third party website sales, whereas steam locks you into steam
Lyon
I'm leveling up in shadowbringers atm. I want to unlock flying in HW and SB zones, as well as the head modes for roulettes, but can't be bothered to unlock them manually. Can I buy a skip potion for expansions I've already finished to unlock these?
no
Is the || Shadowkeeper that Ardbert and team killed in the First related in any way to the Shadowkeeper that serves as the E10S boss? ||
you have to gather aether currents on the map and get the ones from the quests
yes
they take barely no time
They are the same.
ok, what about hard modes?
i assume windows more populated then.
The same?
If you do all four role quest lines you will learn more 
How 
i heard the dark knight quest line is good but when does it get good?
I don't want to miss anything
do the people you have to talk to in the red circles ever not spawn? I can't find the 5th person and I have ran everywhere through the circle looking for the icon to click
The one you fight in E10 is ||a recreation made by Eden/Mitron, not the real thing||
everyone plays on the same servers
yes, they're th eonly lvl 80 quests in that area
steam, windows, playstation. the servers are all the same
Yeah there's quite a bit
you're just choosing which place you're buying from, thats all
gives a lot of good lore :D
There's a capstone quest that reveals a lot of stuff you might have wondered about while doing all the role quests
So similar to how || Omega recreates enemies its either fought or learned about? ||
And then after that there's another questline that ties in with the Warring Triad questgiver.
After an expansion we keep playing the semi regular patch content for 2 years
What’s the most efficient way to farm coffee biscuit materials, is it just Pick Clean?
so if my next quest involves duty finder do i just have to wait for however long it takes to find a party?
yup
quick question, can labyrinth of ancients be done with 3 people unsynced assuming everyone is max.
Oof
unless you happen to have enough buddies of course
I know literally no one haha
easily
sooo Im abit in a struggle myself, I finished shadowbringers played through bozja got some bozja gear and now i want to buy crafted gear, problem is, im poor af. so naturally i opted to level a gatherer things were going easy until i hit 50-ish and class quests became impossible cause i needed gear but i cant get it cause i need gil, i tried doing the collectible thing but it only spawns between certain times so its not a stable resource of exp
You can que in you'll be blocked at the Atomos. You need 5 people per party for that bit cause of buttons
you need bodies for the atomos
ohhhh right atomos
i do the gc hand ins but thgey're a daily thing, i stopped doing leves
I’m queueing tam Tara and I feel like no one is this low level
my bad
i saw a post where they said u could do the pads fast enough with 1 person per pad but is that even true
It will pop eventually cause it's in roulettes and high level people will be forced into it
some poeple told me to go level in diadem idk how that fairs
you need 4 people per pad
oh ok
does anyone know where the 5th guy is. kinda frustrated been looking like 20 minutes now in the red circle and can't find him
he's outside the wall
Oh gotcha. They will have to drag a noob about haha
ignored 
wow thank you !! i got him finally
For starters, you can use the yellow scrips to get gears for your DOH/DOL so you dont have to pay using gil.
For those collectable spawn times, you can check out https://www.ffxiv-gathering.com/ and rotate among the various collectibles according.
A Final Fantasy XIV Gathering Clock for tracking available node locations.
ik that but there are only certain collectibles and they spawn at different times so if i want to level my miner now with collectibles its impossible because they havent spawned yet
Why can’t I exit chat?
exit chat?

Hmm, you can go semi-afk at the same spot(s) and do other stuff in real-life or in-game. But yeah for this method its really slow at the start
i do that all the time too
you may have enabled direct chat by mistake
before i know i typed 55 W
How do I unable it
it's in Keybinds, at the top
what about diadem
to get to ilvl 490 should I just spam the previous dungeon? from what I've found that gives the highest gear I can get apart from buying from market?
whats enable lyp sync during chat mean in the charac config ?
like motuh moving ?
Makes your character move their mouth when you type something in chat
oh ok
ilvl 490 you can get from just doing bozja
crafted gear is second best when augmented
Eden and nier raids for gear
is savage the tip top content atm ?
Yes and no
For current gear
did I miss them or something? Where do I find those?
There's ultimates above that
Ultimates are still harder
But those are just bragging rights super bosses
!faq contentunlock
See shadowbringers unlocks
these are the SHB main raids
Remember to snag gear with allegory tomes as well to help fill out slots
Just hit lvl 70, do I have to get my MSQ at Stormblood before I unlock The Blackest Knight? (DRK)
Yes as always
it's unlocked by your last job quest
Your story needs to be in the stormblood expansion
which in turn is locked by getting to Stormblood
Sweet thank you
isn't it better to get exarchic gear and spend allegory on augmenting them rather than on i490 gear?
I have the gil but I've just finished Mt. Gulg so idk if going from i415 to i510 is worth the gil
is there an album sold somewhere with the song from Amh Araeng? rlly like that song
Hi! I'm pretty new in the game, just started SHadowbringer and decided to boost a BLM but I think O don't have all of my spells, you see I'm blm 70 and i can see spells that are onyl up to 50 can anyone help plese?
You have done way too many leveling roulettes
awesome, whats the title of the song?
you looking in your Actions and Traits window? Press P on keyboard
Wait I'm dumb
yea and ther's only spells to 50
Quafele put your job stone on
Amh Araeng daytime theme is "Sands of Amber"
oh yeah that would do it lol
!item soul of the black mage
by boosting you mean the job skip item from mogstation, yes? just to confirm
equip that
oh yeah
yep
sounds like you're a thaumaturge.
got it #44 
They are a Thaumaturge if they only see up to Lv 50
gotta equip your job stone, and better make a gear set too
so you don't have to think about that again
ok that worked thank alot guys!
Speaking of which does THM even have a 50 ability
wait he gets abilities up to 50 without a soul crystal?
all classes do iirc
thats not possible
i Just didn't equiped it lol
AE should be THM
i'm dumb
I thought it was only up to level 30 abilities with crystal
Nope it's 50
classes go all the way up to lvl 50 with their skills, yeah
It might as well be 30 because you only get two skills from your class from 30 to 50
but in potd while leveling without a crystal (pugilist for ex) i only saw my lv 30 abilities
One at 38 and the other at 50
many abilities after 30 are only from your job
but a few are still considered class abilities
Wait is Holmgang a WAR ability or a MRD ability cause it's unlocked at 42 
Pugilist gets Fists of Wind at 34, Mantra at 42 and Perfect Balance at 50
MRD
Holmgang is a MRD ability
How many enemies should a drg wait for before using aoe?
My windows settings is FullHD but game won't let me get that on windowed or borderless windowed mode. Anyone knows why?
How long does the extra xp on the Louisoix server last?
3 is generally the breakpoint
ty
90days minimum, longer if server stays preferred
augmented cryptlurker vs edenmorn vs bozja gear which is the best rn
or is it a mix
alright
@faint flareAh okay. From the moment it get's it?
maybe a Zadnor piece if both Edenmore and cryptlurker have shit stats on like a healer or tank
From the moment you create your character there
From creation yes
sometimes i fail crafting and i get the materials back and sometimes i dont, is there a reason behind this?

hey guys, after like 5 minutes of downloading, it just stops, does anyone know how to fix this?
Is an option
oh okay thanks
Set the resolution as custom for borderless windowed or windowed mode, you can also double click the top of the window in windowed mode to make it fill the screen or snap it to the top
Heyo everyone, i´m trying to to un lock the Alexander raids in Dravanian Hinterlands, and im on the quest "Rearmed" Is there a way to make it out to the island without flying?
No
Sadness
Hey I'm kinda new here, is FC limited to world or datacentre?
World
World
ah okay thanks for that
It's all greyed out
What’s the resolution of your primary display, and at the top is the target monitor the correct one
From your screenshot the custom parameters looked like you could adjust them
Just type 1920 in the width and 1080 in the height then apply changed
Changes
it's greyed out I can't type anything when it's borderless windowed
Oh I meant in windowed, borderless will always use your native res
Borderless is no different than fullscreen but acts like a window in windows itself so it’s easier to alt tab
Oh what a moronic discovery. Borderless Windowed actually takes information from Windowed. So you can't have separate settings. I'd smack the UX designer who made this choice. Quite a dumbass actually.
Yeah
But thanks problem solved
Np
If you use windowed non fullscreen you should be able to adjust it
I usually play in windowed personally cause I afk a lot lmao, I just snap it to the top

I need some help, so I have played Realm Reborn before few months for a month, trial version, and deleted it later coz I didnt have time to play.
Now I made new account, instelled Free Trial on steam and can't log in, some guy gave me link for trial version, but it works only when I start it from desktop.
Any suggestions how to fix it? I want to play over a steam.
Gotta add that I made new account too
It’s probably still in the steam db from your old account
You might have to fully remove it from your steam account and redownload the trial version again
gonna try
So instal FF XIV online free trial - Instel Demo?
it says Free Demo
should be that i guess
its asking me Registration code, do i have it as trial version?
Hey so if I complete the "Our End" quest on a server that has the exp boost active, can I then make a Dark Knight on a normal xp-rate server?
steam trial can be a bit finicky, close it and relaunch
trial doesnt require registration code
no, unlocks are per character not account bound
so dumb lol, so they practlcly calling wow players with most dumb unfrendly installer ever
Oooh alright, thank you (:
aaaaand i got error again, guess im back in wow lol
I did a thing with my trial, where I went in on some file and changed a number from 0 to 1 or something, I don't remember exactly how it went
- Steam launcher integration update
- Steam and windows expansions are not interchangeable, buy the expansions for your base platform
- Use SteamEdit to remove -issteam argument to play with your windows subscription via steam
- You do not need to uninstall ffxiv if you have either the steam or windows version when you want to swap.
I followed this:
change the value in StartupCompleted from 0 to 1
Skips that registration page and sets you to the normal login screen" ```
Just wow lol...
Yeah it's a bit silly, but quick and easy to do
feels like im trying to cheat game
i've completed my relic weapon
still not working lol

is there any point in upgrading it further or is it basically just a cool piece of glamour at this point?
You installed the steam free trial, and not the base game, right?
yeh
Hmm
not sure to be honest
if you did, then you need to use the SE trial launcher not steam
Ooh right I do remember now. I had to make the acc after launching the game on steam, through the window that pops up, click "Create new account"
as they're not compatible
oh man i dont want to lvl again xD
If you specifically want to play through steam that is, you don't have to
I accidntally skipped an MSQ cutscene. Is there any way of rewatching it? I can't abandon the quest in the journal (to try to restart it)
can i see in my mail where i made acc
anyone know what lvl 50 duty gives the best xp ?
I am having trouble with extremely slow download speed through the launcher. From what I have read this seems like a common thing? is there a known fix if any?
guys, after a while, even the ff 14 quick launcher just stops working, how do i fix this please?
'' Square Enix Account <autoinfo_eu@account.square-enix.com '' that's the mail , so i guess its not SE?
yea kinda similiar, not extremely slow, but just not downloading at all
Have you turned off your firewalls/antivirus stuff? I found that made things go way faster for me.
you can rewatch cutscenes in "The Undending Journey" book located in Inn Rooms in the major cities, but you have to have already completed the quest.
If you wanna watch it right now, gotta youtube...
ah cool thanks.
it downloads, but then just gets stuck after a while
!faq quicklauncher this is an option which can help
its been stuck like this for like 20 minutes
lv 50 dungeons dont give much exp; except for prae and castrum in roulette
At level 50, your best dungeon to spam is Aurum Vale.
okay i give this a try, thanks
Level 50, 60 and 70 dungeons are not intended for "leveling" as they were released when that level was the cap. They give tomestones instead.
Their exp is poor.
ahh k. ty
how's unending coil of bahamut these days?
has it become super easy like alexander
no
Ultimates cannot be unsynced
It's marginally easier due to gear being synced down now hitting both substat caps, and some job changes making older jobs slightly more powerful in older content
Does the new launcher only do a fresh install? through steam i only had shadowbringers to download
do msq dungeons and trials need to be completed by the duty finder or does party finder work too
Party finder works
cool
How exactly do you find a mentor?
can i post lightshot screnshot here, maybe you can see where i created acc
Is there any sort of in-game global chat etc, or is it fixed to be |General|Battle|Event| ?
Novice Network is a global chat
General/battle/event are just tab filters, you can customise the name of each chat tab and what appears in it
But the closest thing to a server-wide chat channel is Novice Network
open to new players and mentors
can shout in any major city for an invite
Ooh neat! Does that mean I need to progress to a major city first before joining, or is New Gridania a majory city?
gridania is a major city
ooh alright. Thanks for the help you two 😄
so If I started as lancer and decided to that I want to switch to black mage, I need to level as thraumaturge first right?
where do I get quest to switch to thaumaturge ?
An unhandled error has occurred: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable
If you believe this error to be a bug please report to the Kupo Bot Support Discord: http://discord.gg/4dpPFcWURA
guys i can lvl all the way through dungeons etc .. right or is there certain qchains ?

hmm, at what point can I just switch locations (almost complete lancer starting location) ?
lvl 15 in the main scenario quest will take you to the other city states

eh, what? I'm lvl 18 rn
aaaaah
pretty much whenever we're talking about level unlocks, most of the time its going to be in regards to the main scenario quest
since almost everything is tied to it
which version is recommended windows or steam before i make a mistake
realistically it doesn't matter. main difference is that steam doesn't go on sale as often so if you're someone who is a deal hunter, steam may not be ideal. That said, if you also make heavy use of steam wallet, that's the upside of going with steam
To be frank, your character level basically means absolutely nothing if it's under your msq level
another question about Glamour
what exp food should I use?
for leveling, doesn't matter
I am a dragoon ok? say I wanna be look like a dark knight just look wise
is it possible?
just use cheap food, boiled eggs are a common choice
sorry didnt understand what u mean by "sale"
you can only glamour gear you can equip. that said, dragoon often shares models with tank gear @fleet vale
as in, buying it for cheaper
I see
expansions are 40$, on sale they're like 20$ or whatever the discount is that site is running
thanks for the info
Almost all maiming gear is slightly modified tank gear, so for the most part yes
No, you only get to use spears as drg
god damn that half..nvm ty regardless
Drk use greatsword, you can't glam cross weapon
as newbie ill start lancer class not sure which class to pick just rerolling from wow
There's exceptions on the armor too, like
that judge set is so bad ass
Every class gets an "artifact" set at each level cap, which is basically the canonical look for that class
http://prntscr.com/18huqzs does this mean that im already on steam or? Cause i can't log on steam at all
the one look like from ff12
Those can't be used with other jobs
arghhh
at least as a dragoon there is that bad ass Kain look a like set from ff4
yes?
Bit of a nooby question, but how do I get the FF14 shortcut on my desktop? Whenever I copy the launcher from my folder it doesn't open.
Even the boot.exe isn't working.
idk it's right channel, but even after watching tons of yt can't choose between dragoon\black mage\ paladin, can someone hype me up for one of them?
Astrologian
Do you play WoW? Paladin is a mix of a warrior/paladin from that game, and it's a tank.
They're really strong to level with. Take very little damage and they do great damage. S+ Tier tanks.
Haven't played the other two so can't give my opinion. I know BM is strong.
I played loooong time ago, and I kinda know what each of them do, I just can't choose one, they all looks cool and like roles
Well, you need to decide if you want to tank or DPS because the other two are damage roles.
Is this your first char?
yeah
Those are almost all dungeon unlocks, I'd do them except the relic quest
I'd pick the paladin then. You have to do A LOT of dungeons for the MSQ and the queues will be way quicker. @untold path
I'm not sure what definition of important you're using, but dungeons are kind of key content
You can always check them out later.
@shut panther that one I had when I finished ARR story but there is another version of that came like in stormblood or is it heavensward I cant remember
it looks like similar to that but more bad ass
so in legacy mode, I unbinded strafe left/right and binded the keys to move left/right instead. now the camera is moving a little. how do i stop the camera from moving when moving left/right
?
Can I transfer my non steam acc to steam somehow?
There's a set at 50/60/70/80
That would be level 70
can't unfortunately, but you can hold down mouse button to keep the camera fixed
https://i.imgur.com/u3d1ZMr.png where is this quest giver
i'm on the cordinates
but i can't find the dude
aww okay ty
Might need to do prerequisites
requires having already unlocked the elite clan hunt in Heavensward
Two unlocks in Foundation, one in Idyllshire, then another one in Foundation.
Then you should be able to go back to the Crystarium and unlock their hunts.
hey guys just subbed back cuz my friends are now playing. is there a way to add them as friends cross-server, even if they're currently offline?
They have to be online to be added to friends list
i see.. when they do, I just search players right?
but once they are, can either world visit to their server (or they to yours) and add them thru player search or just party up and add them thru contact menu
ohhh cant add cross-server i see...
I’m only halfway through ShB MSQ but have a few jobs at 80 now. And my other jobs are all too low level to progress the story. Should I focus on boosting my jobs to MSQ level so then I can use the exp from that (is it much?) or continue MSQ on my 80s. Problem is my other jobs I have no experience in and am kinda anxious about learning tank or melee/ranged DPS (only have ast, and SCH/SMN at 80. Have BLM at 72 but I’m kinda over it, and Whm 73 but don’t want another healer). Ugh.
Hello, I have a question. Is the Endwalker purchase on Greenmangaming's site for NA region or EU region?
Tanks are really quite easy to play, I wouldn't be too concerned about jumping in
Ok, thanks. I will try paladin or warrior then. May as well go bulky if tanking.
You basically have an extremely simplified melee DPs rotation and a few damage cooldowns to rotate
so did/failed Striking tree extreme 4th time. do i give up on doing with sprouts and do solo at 70+ lvl?
yeah extreme one
then do not queue for it via duty finder
extremes are not done via df
Just because it takes much more coordination (as you have witnessed) and you can not really trust random people
somehow manage to do garuda or what her name extreme one. with wiki help of course
What people do is use party finder and/or do them unsynced at higher levels
Yeah extremes are still fairly accessible
I remember doing Odin way back when via duty finder
(not technically an extreme but basically comparable in difficulty)
just did odin 2 min ago regular 😄
But still, your chances of completing it with randoms are slim
nice, but my point still stands 😄
if you advertise the first clear bonus in pf you'll probably get some people quickly btw
free poetics for people
the thing we almost did striking tree extreme but people give up half way. they already familiar with tactics dont know why leave.
except for dragoon. who still trying kill boss while he is immortal in add phase ( fack that guy)
does CLL rarely drop the whole box for bojza augemented gear?
Yes, emphasis on rare
yes, rarely
lol I didn't notice I got a hand and trade for an extra hand
Is there an eureka guide?
!faq eureka
i jusdt did the quest to unlcok beast tribe quests, but where are they?
Which tribe
pixie
returning player, where do you download the client thats just straight up downloading the game? every clients i find seem to be for first time players
when you reach a reputation threshold you can do another quest to rank up, which will continue the main story of the pixie tribe.
been looking for a hot minute and i feel dumb not finding it
!faq download
You can track your reputation in the character window > reputation tab
each rank up also slightly increases the exp the daily quests give
they didn't really award a lot of xp ngl
they award a decent chunk of exp.
how come foul has 650 potency yet deals less damage than fire 4?
That's heaps for the effort and time required
for early levels you get enough exp to go up a level or two
do all beast tribes award the same xp?
no
also it kinda pads so you can level more through roulettes.
Fire 4 is buffed by Astral Fire so its true potency is much higher. Foul is free though. You get a single-target version of foul that's better later
!faq blmleveling
the exp given by the beast tribe will also get boosted when max them out
i'm not asking about leveling, i'm asking about the damage potency
how much?
Well I answered 👀
so when i'm exalted with them
!action xenoglossy
the xp given is higher
i'm asking about foul and fire 4 potency differences
foul has 650 and yet fire 4 deals more damage even under astral fire and enochian
so what's the math here?
.
^ that’s the answer.
Astral Fire III is 1.8x modifier
Enochian is 1.15x modifier but it applies to everything so isn't a factor when comparing
okay so, it's 540 potency for fire 4 under astral fire
621 with enochian
that's still less than foul, which is 650 for the first guy
and fire 4 still does more damage
???
either there's some hidden math i'm not aware of
Sounds like you crit or DH
what are the red pins on the map?
landmarks
points of interest
🤔

Is it better to farm these on Zadnor or on raids?
