[boreal storm]

Yes click it

[willow sparrow]

What does it mean when it says All above my HP, and then changes to Others when in combat?

[flint pollen]

@willow sparrow

[whole wasp]

it also depends on the time. its like 1AM to 3 AM-ish in NA?

[chrome island]

How many cutscenes need I ensure when I start HW (like within the first 5 quests or so)

[flint pollen]

that is for you and i have another picture to show you

[whole wasp]

its the targeting filter. mostly for controllers

[chrome island]

Meaning, how many are there, not how many I gotta pay attention to

[willow sparrow]

yea, I just don't have any other pants yet

[flint pollen]

there are quest for it

and that one is how you update your current gear needs

[boreal storm]

You have been doing your class quests right Hum?

[willow sparrow]

got new pants just now lol

trtying to balance the class ones and the main story

[boreal storm]

Do them immediately

It really helps

[flint pollen]

msq and class and duties are good enough

[whole wasp]

class ones usually unlock abilities so its nice to do

[boreal storm]

Along with giving gear

[vital ruin]

how do i know if a train just started in my server
it's been like two weeks i barely get hunt notifs for my server from centurio hunts

Tonberry btw

[willow sparrow]

got my first new pants, no more panty flashing

[leaden ginkgo]

Does ninja rely on double weaving? Or can I play it normally with 110 ping?

[whole wasp]

ninja has a bunch of stuff they want to fit into their TA window where double weaving can be helpful but its not as bad as before

since TCJ is now on GCD

[little swift]

Ninja doesn't have an extreme amount if double weaving most of it is single

But 110 ms can still comfortably double weave as needed

[whole wasp]

i recall the fml threshold is ~ >150ms

it should not be too bad

[leaden ginkgo]

True, I do double weave but the animation clips a bit on my GCD

It’s not consistent to say the least

[little swift]

Adjust your weave timings

Ninja with huton hovers at the 2.00 gcd mark

So you technically have less time than you think

[leaden ginkgo]

Will do, ty

[willow sparrow]

I don't understand this quest

[honest anvil]

ask for a linkshell invite next time you see a train

[boreal storm]

And the quest objective is...

[boreal storm]

Go to west than, enter the green zones on the map, initiate

Fair tip, combat leves are garbage

[flint pollen]

yeah in that direction and also you will see a green circle and when you get at that grean area then initaite

[willow sparrow]

initiate said ti will send me to my home and abandon quest

[flint pollen]

well if you finish it will take you back to the npc that you picked up the quest from

[boreal storm]

No it’s saying you don’t have a return point set up in the area

Just in case you die

[flint pollen]

upon click on the box

[willow sparrow]

ooh

[flint pollen]

i meant the leve quest completion and when you do finish it will prompt the box

[willow sparrow]

okay thanks

[chrome island]

So every expansion has a base credits scene and then a post patch credits or is ARR just annoying?

[boreal storm]

Every expansion has 2 credits yes

[flint pollen]

and when you die it will take you to return where you home map is unless assigned another home

[chrome island]

[flint pollen]

but if you are lucky or with a party you can get some one to rez you

[chrome island]

Other than cool backgrounds I’d it worth it to sit through the credits? I just finished ARR and I just wanna get to HW

[boreal storm]

No

If you don’t wanna watch, don’t

[outer star]

There's no cutscenes you'll skip if you skip the credits

You're more than free to

[wooden isle]

question can i make my axe look like the moonlight greatsword with prisms?

[outer star]

The greatsword is a DRK weapon, so no

[lime furnace]

my gf just made a square enix account in order to play the free trial on steam, and when she logs in it says it's not eligible for free trial?

she literally just made the account

[outer star]

That's odd

[lime furnace]

what's the next step?

[vital ruin]

I've been asking in the discord but no luck
ao i just shout for linkshell?

@honest anvil

[flint pollen]

try to log w/o steam using the created id

[outer star]

Mind that Steam and the PC versions are treated as separate

I don't know why but that's how it is

[lime furnace]

oooh, so she created her account on the ff website and not through the launcher via steam

maybe that's why

[outer star]

Try the Windows client and see if that works

Yeah her account is a PC one

[flint pollen]

to me i prefer to do things through SE and use steam to just open my FF14 short cut lmao

[solar shale]

does anyone know if server transfer will be free when the OCE servers drop

[outer star]

Most likely yes

[solar shale]

pog thanks

[flint pollen]

cause on steam you can add non-steam games for a shortcut

[honest anvil]

can also say or tell since everyone will be in the same area anw; “anyone have a hunt linkshell? pls add me” ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[outer star]

I recall them doing it when they added the Crystal data center

[lime furnace]

can I submit a ticket and have them make it work on steam?

[vital ruin]

can i auto translate linkshell?

[flint pollen]

beware they are so busy since the holiday is over and there are a surge of ppl needing support cause i spent hour and 30 minutes before i got a response

earlier

[lime furnace]

kk thanks

[flint pollen]

yw

[outer star]

Weird question now that you bring it up, I assume the PC and Steam versions aren't mutually exclusive and can only have one of the two?

[whole wasp]

they are mutually exclusive and choosing one or the other locks you out.

[outer star]

That's fair I suppose

[whole wasp]

it makes sense too, you shouldnt be able to buy 2 different PC license and accidentally double charge yourself

[outer star]

It is weird to me how you can't just log with the same license on either

The account has measures in place for consoles too

[flint pollen]

i mainly play on the console

but i can log on pc but not at the same time

i have to use one device at a time or it will lock you out

[leaden ginkgo]

It's odd, and I've been trying to look into why that is exactly. Instead of just guessing anyway. I'm guessing there more of a legal/security reason behind it.

[outer mural]

it's because of business reasons

[twilit arch]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/news/detail/eb00facc2f6dc880aca78a9aa69d4dcbcf2c5f4d

for the changes to the login

[outer mural]

actually no scratch that i'm talkin out of my ass and misunderstood the situation

goodbye

[leaden ginkgo]

Looks like fraud reasons. I only guessed legal because global laws can get really weird when it comes to things like this. We're talking hiring an independent set of lawyers to handle such laws weird

[solemn slate]

Hello! I chose limsa as my home place at MSQ 30 ( or whatever it was ), but my aether thing teleported me to girdiana, did I do something wrong?

[flint pollen]

there is a home and fav and some other thing

you can set those things

[late coyote]

think my game is bugged m on the scenario for the quest escape from castrum centri but the big magitek vanguard is just immune to everything i throw at him?

[solemn slate]

Ohh, so did I set it as my favorite or something? What's the difference 😮

Yeah I see it has a silver star next to it

[outer mural]

favorites reduce the price to tp there

home makes it to where you can return for free with the return spell

doesn't reduce the actual cost to 0 or anything

[solemn slate]

Ohhh, that makes sense, ty! So the silver star is a favorite right?

[outer mural]

i believe so but i don't remember for sure

[solemn slate]

Appreciate the help!

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey, I made my free trial account via the official launcher. I don't think I can switch to steam for the official game when I want to right?

[outer mural]

no, not to my knowledge

[leaden ginkgo]

You can go from a trial to the steam full game

But can I transfer my free trial character to steam?

[hot eagle]

yes you can go from normal trial to steam full version

[leaden ginkgo]

I did

So yes

[outer mural]

if you mean free trial standalone -> free trial steam then no

[fallen topaz]

IIRC there's a terminal hiding somewhere in the area that you have to activate to make it drop its shields

[leaden ginkgo]

Ah good, was worried I'd lose my free trtial character

[tropic junco]

Hello. Ive got a question about purchasing and being able to play. Im gonna play trial through Steam atm. I looked at the complete edition on Squenix store. If I buy that can I play it from any platform FF14 is on as long as I login through the account I purchased the game?

[flint pollen]

there you can set your destination

[outer mural]

yes but for PC you can't go from free trial steam -> full standalone iirc

only the inverse

[tropic junco]

PC doesnt concern me, I got a PS4 and I wouldnt mind jumping on there from time to time

[outer mural]

but you can buy a license for PS4 and play on the PS4 version with the same account

yeah it should be fine, same account but multiple licenses should do what you want

[late coyote]

ah yeah found them random thingyes behind stuff at the edges :p

[flint pollen]

pc and mac and ps4/5 each have a license which you have to pay each individually but you can log on any account for what i understand as long you pay your subs

[solemn slate]

Can I do ocean fishing on a trial account?

[tropic junco]

so its just the sub I have to pay again to get to play on PS4

[outer mural]

no you need to buy the game on ps4 for a separate license

sub pays for both pc and ps4 if you have both games

[tropic junco]

ok ok, ill see how it runs on my PC, if its having a hard time gonna buy it on PS4 instead

[flint pollen]

say for example you have a account and you got a license with a pc but if you go on your p4 then you have to get another license

[whole ember]

is there a certain gatherer/crafter i can focus on earlyish on for making gil? im about to hit idyllshire and havent touched any of them really, but would lie a way to start making money consistently

[outer mural]

you don't really run into money early on

you run more into it when you gather maps and higher end materials and then crafted mats alongside that

i recommend botanist here and there so you can level it up to start collecting maps, and maybe branch off into the cookie leves thing at 80

but earlier on your options are limited besides meager collecting and selling that aren't super lucrative

[flint pollen]

so far i have pc and ps4 but the mac i dont cause idnk now but there was some issues on the mac and players were not to happy but that was my research over 2 years ago lol

[leaden ginkgo]

And another question: are there any Dutch people around? If so, I'm curious how you've set up your subscription for FF14. Via SE or steam? Since there's no iDeal payment method, which I usually use. And Paypal has added this inactivity payment system, so not sure about that.

[whole ember]

i see

id lucked out and ran into a few cosmetics in potd that were worth a bit, but yeah thats pretty much the only money ive seen so far outside of MSQ gear rewards

ill try and look into botanist

[outer star]

I made the bulk of my money selling high quality levelling gear I made

[whole ember]

i noticed a pretty decent amount of gear in my level bracket goes for 30-80k

[outer star]

Likely due to the nature of game where it lets you level everything on one character

[outer mural]

you sohuldn't be buying marketboard gear

[outer star]

Those are very inflated for low level gear

[outer mural]

msq and dungeons gives you enough

if it's an alt char then poetics and dungeon gear is enough

[whole ember]

oh yeah for sure

ive only spent money on gear once, just cause ive been playing GNB and i wanted a stat boost that i didnt need

everything else has been on glamour stuff lmao, thus the desire for money

been spending my poetics on gear for alt jobs even though none of the ones i wanna play are to 50 yet, but didnt wanna hit the cap and then just not be bringing them in

[outer mural]

good

[open ember]

It should be

[stray dawn]

any awesome mount that a fresh lv 80 can get?

[shrewd prism]

hey guys, is there any benefit doing all the blue leves quests?

[outer star]

Nothing I can think of outside of unlocking the leves of that level range

Which will be necessary if you want to do the ARR relics

[shrewd prism]

not sure what relics are

[boreal storm]

Best weapons at a level cap

[outer star]

They're special weapons that look cool

[outer star]

They require a significant grind and the final step tends to be the best weapon for that expansion

[boreal storm]

Non current ones are just there to look pretty

[outer star]

The ARR relic for paladin, for example

[whole ember]

like i mentioned i havent touched crafter/gatherers really, and you mentioned making leveling gear. are there a handful of jobs i can focus on for this, or is this going to kinda require the bulk of the non-combat jobs?

[shrewd prism]

oh wow that's cool.... well I'm still at the beginnning of msq... guess I will learn about relic weapons later on

[outer star]

The HW ones

[leaden ginkgo]

should i play any specific class if i want to be a machinist? or does it not matter

[outer star]

Doesn't matter

Soon as you unlock Ishgard you can get machinist

[outer star]

Kind of yes, since gear parts tend to be spread across the professions

[shrewd prism]

does the game introduce you to relic weapons?

[leaden ginkgo]

so starting class in character creation doesn’t matter huh

[boreal storm]

It’s best to do relics when you have a lvl 80 so you can unsync half the steps

[flint pollen]

?s folks what are the dps skills and AoEs for a rogue and now that i just got it to 30 so i need to know what the next part is ???

[boreal storm]

It determines your starting city

[outer star]

The relics start off as blue sidequests

But yeah due to the nature of getting them being the strongest you can be can save a lot of time

[outer mural]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygNG68HJjko

[flint pollen]

thx jim

[stray dawn]

any marketboard near a teleporter?

[boreal storm]

Lisma

[leaden ginkgo]

Limsa has one that's the closest

Ul'dah is less crowded, and you can use the big aetherite to teleport directly to one

[solid fog]

Do we know when the next pvp season comes out ?

[rich mango]

Buying the shadowbringers expansion doesn't come with game time does it ?

[twilit arch]

no, expansions never do

[rich mango]

Rip

I just bought it without knowing xD

[outer mural]

you need base game which gives you 30 days anyawy

but by itself no

[outer mural]

we do not

[rich mango]

I already had the base game long ago. Thanks tho

[outer mural]

oh okay

[pallid sorrel]

what's the easiest dragon mount to get

[twilit arch]

||midgardsormr|| you get it from msq

[dry cairn]

Oooo which expansion?

[twilit arch]

heavensward

[dry cairn]

Nice

[pallid sorrel]

flying on a chocobo doesnt feel right

[flint pollen]

lol

to me seems good for low lvls sorry but i preferred others lol

[ruby plover]

hey guys jjust maxed out on poetics again and idk what to buy. Currently working on the shadowbringers relics but only on the first stage (augmented). Are there any tiems i need to buy with poetics in the future for the relic?

[dry cairn]

the mount speed is the same across the board right?

[leaden ginkgo]

Yes

[twilit arch]

mhm

[flint pollen]

what ever class you want to work on that are at the proper lvl

not sure im guessing 50 plus

[rich mango]

I can't buy game time from steam can I ?

[leaden ginkgo]

You can with the steam wallet

[agile laurel]

Exception is the SDS Fenrir from the Cash shop which always goes at max speed for the zone

[rich mango]

It doesn't give me the option to

[twilit arch]

you can use steam wallet to pay for the sub

[dry cairn]

OH okay

[twilit arch]

but thru steam itself, no

its all done thru mogstation

its not max level speed, its the first tier of movement speed for sds fenrir

[flint pollen]

gee how many freaking quests and back and forth all this mess im going to do before i get the rogue soul stone

[twilit arch]

So once you've gained that from the msq (for arr-sb zones)/riding maps (shb zones), sds fenrir is same as the otehrs

[flint pollen]

so far i already got the blue swirl item

where can i finaly get that freaking sould stone ?

[gusty island]

30

[flint pollen]

so i can upgrade my rogue

it is lvl 30 and im going around like a headless chicken

and i have been checking still no soul stone

[gusty island]

you gotta do your level 30 job quest

[flint pollen]

that is what im working on

i keep getting run arounds

[leaden ginkgo]

Keep working on it then. You'll get it soon enough

[flint pollen]

for the past 30 minutes is crazy

[agile laurel]

If you can't get the soul stone you're not expected to have it

[late coyote]

heard soemone said its easy to change your grand company how and where do i do it and what do i loose from doing it?

[agile laurel]

You will not access content that expects you to have it before you can get it

It's not possible

[gusty island]

mhhhhh

[leaden ginkgo]

You lose your rank in that GC, and you can't use your seals

[twilit arch]

You don't lose your rank

everything about your previous gc is frozen

[leaden ginkgo]

I mean you have to start over if you move

To a fresh one

Ka derp, I worded it so wrong

[ruby plover]

what should i spend poetics on at cap?

[twilit arch]

you also can't use gear from your previous gc

[plain python]

what would be faster for 3.3m mettle: a Dalarian run vs non-boosted fate/CE camp?

[flint pollen]

what ever class you want to work on

[ruby plover]

u mean armour?

[flint pollen]

yes

[late coyote]

ok well how do i do it?

[twilit arch]

talk to the personnel officer of the grand company you want to switch to

[leaden ginkgo]

We got a kupobot for it?

[flint pollen]

i give you an example when i got my paladin to 70 i went to kugane to get my 70s gears

[ruby plover]

yeah i guess i can get some lvl 70 gear

because lvl 80 gear doesnt use poeticsd

[gleaming shadow]

Hello! Is there a list somewhere I could read about which jobs share gear with other jobs ?

[boreal storm]

All healers, all tanks, all magic dps, all ranged dps share gear with the respective roles

[twilit arch]

fending = gunbreaker, paladin, warrior, dark knight
maiming = dragoon and soon to be reaper.
striking = monk and samurai
scouting = ninja
aiming = dancer, bard, machinist
casting = red mage, summoner, black mage
healing = white mage, scholar, astrologian and soon to be sage

[gleaming shadow]

That's great, thanks for the help !

[untold path]

do I need just shadowbringers or base game + shadowbringers (steam trial currently) ?

[boreal storm]

Base + shb

[twilit arch]

for accessories ninja shares aiming with the physical range jobs, and dragoon shares slaying with monk and samurai

[untold path]

thanks, also, if I buy it now, but don't use codes until later (finish trial msq ect) when will month sub start?

when I buy it or activate codes on mog station

[boreal storm]

When you register, the clock starts ticking. So don’t until you’re ready

[twilit arch]

the 30 days free start when you apply the code to your mogstation

[untold path]

nice, thanks!

[wooden isle]

is there a way to solo the duty finder dungeon because there is like 3 teams recruiting and i have yet to find a team?

[proud willow]

Which dungeon?

[wooden isle]

stone vigil

[proud willow]

It's a dungeon in the Leveling Roulette, so people will join eventually

[quiet condor]

which classes are divided into what? i heard there is a queue for dps, healer, and tank, i want to play a supporting kind of role as dancer or bard, but do those fall under healer queue or dps queue?

[proud willow]

the queue status indicator only shows people who are queued for that specific dungeon, not roulettes

[twilit arch]

dancer and bard are both dps

[proud willow]

Dancer and Bard are fully DPS

[wooden isle]

its for the msq

[quiet condor]

oh.. so i would be waiting in dps queue then

hm

ill just play healer then

[wet latch]

Guys a question... I wanted to know if the pvp is active or no, i went from wow and i love pvp hahaha

[severe brook]

whats the fastest way to level from 72 to 80?

[proud willow]

It's not all that active

You can do it, but it's not something most people even dabble in

[quiet condor]

conjurer is the class i want for healer classes right

[wet latch]

So More concern in pve

[quiet condor]

im making my char rn

[boreal storm]

PvP is a thing, Feast isn’t active

[proud willow]

yep, Conjurer is the only starting class that is a healer

[wet latch]

Thx

[shy sage]

you could also go arcanist, which goes into scholar at lvl 30

[boreal storm]

But people occasionally do Frontline and Rival wings

[quiet condor]

there's two main healer classes right

[proud willow]

3

[twilit arch]

3

[shy sage]

3

[quiet condor]

oh

[twilit arch]

astrologian, scholar and white mage

[shy sage]

Astrologian

[boreal storm]

Soon to be 4

[quiet condor]

what are the differences for them

im looking for a healer that isnt solely focused on just heals

and can kinda do some other support stuff as well

whether thats buffing debuffing shields whatever

[boreal storm]

So a shield healer?

[severe brook]

Astrologian if u want to play the hardest healer

[shy sage]

All of them are not 'only' healing I would say

[proud willow]

Healers are green DPS, you spend a large amount of your time DPSing regardless of which one you pick. But AST has buffing teammates' damage as a core mechanic so you might like that the most

[shy sage]

Astrologian buffs the party with his cards for example, scholar got a fairy and white mage is... A 'normal' healer I would say with a little bit of damage

[quiet condor]

hmm i kinda like that idea of ast

what does the scholar fairy do

[lyric rapids]

i am currently at lvl 47 and my next MSQ is at lvl 49, whats the best source of EXP?

[shy sage]

You get Astrologian in Heavensward, it starts at lvl 30

[fallen topaz]

You can't be an Astrologian until you're quite a long way into the game

[shy sage]

I don't have any experience with scholar, soooo if nobody can help you, you might look it up

[quiet condor]

oh what class leads into astro

[shy sage]

None

[mild ermine]

Best source of exp is to do the highest level dungeon available to you, and your duty roulette, and msq

@lyric rapids

[quiet condor]

oh do you just straight up change classes into astro, instead of classes leading into each other

[proud willow]

unlock the level 47 dungeon Aurum Vale and run it several times. Do FATEs while in queue

[shy sage]

There are some classes which lead into each other, some don't

[fallen topaz]

If you want to be a healer from the word go, Conjurer. Scholar you can get relatively early

[shy sage]

Astro is one of them

[mild ermine]

You just grab the class. Astro starts at level 30.

[quiet condor]

i see, so if i want to play a healer i shoiuld just pick conjurer and eventually ill get to swithc to astro

[mild ermine]

Yes.

[shy sage]

Conjurer = Healer from the start
Scholar = goes from arcanist, can go into summoner (dps) or scholar
Astro = first available in Heavensward

[mild ermine]

Just to make things clear you can play every single class/job in the game on one character.

[quiet condor]

oh

[shy sage]

Ye

[mild ermine]

So you can be all of them if you want to.

[quiet condor]

its one of those dynamic class systems

where you can just switch

instead of being locked in

[shy sage]

If you pick warrior you can later be astro for example

[fallen topaz]

Conjurer = healer from the start. Scholar = healer after a couple of days. Astro = healer after a couple of weeks

[shy sage]

You can play EVERY class

[mild ermine]

You can switch at anytime in the open world and in towns, but not in dungeons, trials, raids.

[boreal storm]

That’s how FF works

[fallen topaz]

Yeah the way classes work is, if you equip a wand you're a conjurer. If you then equip an axe instead, bam, you're a marauder now

(level tracked separatly for every class except for summoner/scholar which share)

[mild ermine]

Yes every class/job is leveled individually.

Except Summoner and Scholar.

[brazen turret]

Will the level boost items change to 80 when endwalker launches?

[mild ermine]

They level together.

[oak ice]

ye

[vestal needle]

Is it better for whm to wear a shield in zadnor?

Since their equip gets sync to 430

[oak ice]

It technically is, but you won't notice the difference most of the time

[vestal needle]

Hmm okay thanks!

[warm snow]

Kinda, but your one handed wands will also have lower stats as a result

[gleaming shadow]

Are class quests connected to their starting areas? For example I want to start Gridania because I like how it looks but I want to play Gladiator or Marauder. Is it alright if I start with a Gridania class and then change class and stay in Gridania ?

[tropic flame]

yep its fine

[gleaming shadow]

Perfect, thanks !

[quiet condor]

uhh is catcuar a fine pick for my home world

[tropic flame]

but you'll need to wait til lvl 15 before you can actuallt go there

[quiet condor]

idk the culture of the different worlds

i hear some are more rp focused some are more focused on the battle parts etc

does it really matter

[cunning loom]

no

[vestal needle]

Imo no.

[left whale]

Doesnt matter, u can visit any other server anyway

Data center is king

[quiet condor]

it's too bad sargatanas is full i have a friend on there

and that world has exp bonus

[vestal needle]

Cataur would probably have longer queue times now tho

[cunning loom]

if you aren't on the same world you can't be in the same fc/guild

[quiet condor]

unfortunate

[cunning loom]

you can spam refresh and hope

[quiet condor]

my friend said if i can get onto sargatanas i can live in his house apparently

[cunning loom]

it is 5am eastern so it's pretty off-peak atm

[lyric rapids]

how long until i get the rested EXP or how does it work??

[cunning loom]

it's a bonus applied to exp gained

kill enemies, get 100% bonus exp until it runs out

[naive ridge]

Basically you gain it whenever you are in a sanctuary (safe area) like a town.

[lyric rapids]

do i have to like log off for a certain amount of time?

[cunning loom]

you get it as soon as you're chilling in a sanctuary

online or offline

[left whale]

Stand in the general vicinity of an aetheryte to accumulate rested exp, works even when logged in

[leaden ginkgo]

You can tell you're in a sanctuary because there will be a crescent moon at the right side of your exp bar

[flint pollen]

you still can get some exp even log out too

just be close to it

finaly the quest for the soul for the rogue gee

[leaden ginkgo]

does iron jaws refresh my dots with my current buffs or refresh the dots with the buff i i applyed before

[clever lotus]

Where do I buy level 70 poetic tomestone weapons?

[kindred frost]

Umm.. So long as you have the moon symbol next to your xp bar, It's enough. Vicinity is a bit ambiguous

[clever lotus]

Could only find the armour

[proud willow]

it's the person to your right, behind the same counter

[twilit arch]

Eschina

[vestal needle]

@leaden ginkgo current nuff

But if you miss rs, dont bother refreshing it

[tulip zephyr]

is there anything good to buy for rowena's tokens?

[twilit arch]

just old weapons for glamour

[tulip zephyr]

and no katanas for glamour :c

[leaden ginkgo]

if i missed rs i dont refresh it why ?

[twilit arch]

even if you miss raging strikes, you should refresh your dots when they're under 3s

[leaden ginkgo]

yaah im doing that

but sometimes i got buffs from party like ast or dancer

and im refreshing it

thanks tho : )

[quiet condor]

ive been refreshing for a bit but doesnt look like sargatanas is gonna free up anytime soon

guess i just go with cactuar

[flint pollen]

some one help me on this i thought and i have ninja unlocked but still no soul stone so where is the thing ??? this is getting me very very annoyed

[ebon sapphire]

guys i wanna start ff14 but i dont know if i should play it on steam or should i just download the launcher from their site? is there any difference?

[barren granite]

if you buy from steam you are foreever stuck buying expacs via steam going fwd.

[flint pollen]

nvm sorry i found it

[hot eagle]

also game is less on sale on steam

[barren granite]

but they have sales as well .

[flint pollen]

it was in my inv insted of my armory

[barren granite]

if you are a steamer, then no issues. but if you dont use steam alot, then id go via SE site

[quiet condor]

are cosmetics generally locked behind microtransactions

[twilit arch]

not really

[limpid glacier]

does this unlock anything?

[twilit arch]

that unlocks the housing district of shirogane

[fallen topaz]

There are some cosmetics you have to pay for but a whole load of cosmetics you can get in game

[sacred oracle]

where can i get new one?

they're broken

[twilit arch]

find a repair merchant, they're indicated by a hammer icon on the map

[proud willow]

you can still repair at a repair NPC, even if they're 0%

[sacred oracle]

hammer icon okay

[proud willow]

if you want some upgrades, vendors in any of the main cities sell jewelry too

[pine onyx]

Does the buff from commercial survival manuals apply to quest and deliveries xp rewards?

[sacred oracle]

i dont know what to upgrade yet

[twilit arch]

no

[proud willow]

any accessories that give STR are appropriate for you, as a WAR

below level 50, the stats are accessories are minimal so don't stress about it too much

[sacred oracle]

alright thank you

what does heart mean?

on market board

[quiet condor]

thats nice, thx

[leaden ginkgo]

Someone added it to their wishlist

[sacred oracle]

oh xD

[leaden ginkgo]

You can find it on the lower left hand side of the MB window as a heart button

[half spear]

hello everyone, i'm a returning player and i finally finish msq shadowbringers andi have green 510 gear and swimming in allegory tombstone

i'm a little lost what to sdo at lvl 80

is there a guide reviewing lvl 80 content ?

[shut panther]

If you have exarchic gear you can exchange allegory tomestone for crystalline rain

Then crystalline rain + exarchic item = augmented 520 version

[half spear]

oh nice thank you

[shut panther]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/shop/ed5221d0e27/?item=3c854636088&type=currency

This is the NPC you're looking for

The augment system is.. an absolute UI clusterfuck

[stable wyvern]

Can i do anything with triple triad duplicate cards?

[shut panther]

Sell for MGP

[stable wyvern]

Poggers!

[warm snow]

[stable wyvern]

Too many pins xd

[silver bane]

is there a setting to bring the game up when your duty pops while your alt tabbed

Some of the dutys I have to do for the main quesat are 28+ min que times

and ive missed a few being alt tabbed

[shut panther]

I don't think so without using quick launcher, but you can set system sounds to play while alt tabbed so you can hear the noise at least

[shut panther]

Also, in terms of content to do there's the weapons quest line, bozja and Eden raids

[half spear]

ok i have to exchange my gear to certificate and then use certificate to create augmented version

[leaden ginkgo]

should i choose aether primal or crystal?

[sacred oracle]

if i want to choose equipment for WAR i have to focus on Strength number than defense right?

[shut panther]

Plus crystalline rain which you buy from the same vendor with allegory

[half spear]

ok seems a little clusterfuck indeed

[shut panther]

Make sure you've got enough rain before you trade the items in for certificates

[pine onyx]

Beast tribe is bad xp for combat classes right?

[fast talon]

unless youre in endgame already, in general, item level is the most important stat when comparing gear. higher item level is generally a better item.

[twilit arch]

no

the expansion beast tribe quests are quite decent for combat jobs

ARR beast tribes are kind of meh because they don't scale

[fast talon]

depends on the tribe. i used the turtle and snake people from SB to level my 60s and the one combat one in ShB gives like a 1/3rd of your bar for all three quests.

[pine onyx]

Gotcha, so only ARR are ass

Good to know

[sacred oracle]

alright

[shut panther]

Yeah tbh end game gear vendors are a UI mess

[pine onyx]

Lvl 60-70 combat tribes are ananta and kojin right?

[fast talon]

yep

[shut panther]

I'm pretty sure Pixies are absolutely the fastest exp/time 71-80

The quests take like 5 minutes max and give you a massive chunk

[twilit arch]

They are but they're also a bit of an exception cos their exp is boosted since there's only 1 combat tribe for shb

[fast talon]

the irony with the pixie quest being that about half of their quests dont even involve fighting despite being the "combat tribe"

[robust light]

can you add subcription with crysta?

[fast talon]

yep

1299 crysta for the entry sub, at least for me since it uses USD for my account

[onyx kiln]

is FATEs the best way to get the 60 memories needed for the second step for your ShB relic?

[shut panther]

Is that the 20/20/20 colored ones?

[onyx kiln]

yeah

[pulsar escarp]

if you're gonna be in bozja anyway, do bozja. if you hate bozja and just want shiny, do fates because iirc it's faster?

[shrewd prism]

Will i be able to transfer my chactacter from crystal to the OCE region that there addin later this year

[shut panther]

The best way is an organized cluster farm in bozja

[onyx kiln]

pretty much done with Bozja with exceptions to the delbrum at this point

[pulsar escarp]

you get more stuff in bozja anyway

[robust light]

can i purchase things from the online store via crysta as well?

[pulsar escarp]

so you might as well

[twilit arch]

they've given free transfers before when they released new datacenters/changed the location.

[pulsar escarp]

the fates are boring as hell but pretty much gauranteed

[shut panther]

Fates are second, then third is bozja without a group

[shrewd prism]

@twilit arch awesome thanks

[fast talon]

one good thing with the fates is you can also farm for HW anima at the same time, but ive heard a lot of people say that farming bozja is faster if you can find a party to do it.

[twilit arch]

so most likely will have that as well once the OCE datacenters are released

[fast talon]

like clothes and stuff? yeah.

as in in-game clothes

[fresh lodge]

They'll be classified as New Servers anyways, so you'll be able to transfer to them for free and get some bonuses as well

[fast talon]

i dont know about any physical goods. probably not.

[shut panther]

If you get a solid cluster farming group in bozja you're literally generating hundreds of cluster per hour and probably ~30 memories per hour

[gleaming shadow]

Is it more desireable to be on a high pop server or low pop server (not data center)

[shut panther]

Fates cannot compete, at all.

[leaden ginkgo]

primal, crystal, or aether?

[stray mason]

whats the best way to grind MGP after I've done challange log?

[shut panther]

really doesn't matter, crystal has a bit more RP if you're into that sort of thing

[shut panther]

Have you done this week's FR?

60k for 5 minutes of effort

[stray mason]

yeah

is there anything else thats good mgp, I want to grind it out for the fenrir mount

atm best ive found is the woodchopping minigame

and events

[delicate patrol]

hey, new here, I'm currently playing the FF14 free trial through it's own launcher, if I now purchase the FF14 online complete edition on steam, am I able to log into my account still through the steam launcher?

[shut panther]

I think once you've done challenge log and fr, that's pretty much it

[neat bough]

1. Is it possible to recruit my friend after he has made a character? he is already level 15.

2. Is the chocobo the only mount that can fight in combat?

[fast talon]

1. Yes. My friends and I only started using our recruit-a-friend code after we bought the game despite already being in HW through the trial.

2. Yes.

[neat bough]

Where can he use my recruit a friend code? @fast talon

[fast talon]

I'm honestly not very sure, but based on this page it seems it should be possible. https://support.na.square-enix.com/faqarticle.php?id=5382&la=1&kid=70905

[neat bough]

Would it be too big of a dps deincrease if I would use the 2 seated whale mount to drive us around?

By not using chocobo

[fast talon]

if youre mounted the chocobo wont be around to fight anyway. and then it respawns when you unmount regardless of what mount you were using.

[fast talon]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/special/friend_recruit/ check the instructions at the bottom

hm i tried to look for it on mogstation where you input the code but i guess because i was already "recruited" the option is gone for me

[frosty creek]

Hey, I am new and wondering if it is possible to reduce the size of the minimap icons?

[bold dirge]

Will the new jobs be avalible before the launch of Endwalker, like a pre-patch or something?

[tidal yarrow]

where can i get the thavnarian powder for the relic first step weapon?

[twilit arch]

it'll be available during early access

[fast talon]

one of the vendors in idyllshire, the one in the middle

of the building in the center

[tidal yarrow]

oh okay ty

[fresh lodge]

You can buy it in Mor Dhona

Same area you buy Ironworks armour

[fast talon]

oh is it also in mor dhona? i always just use idylshire cause the wondrous tails are there too

not to mention all the anima stuff

[twilit arch]

can also buy it from the reps in the 3 starting cities/ishgard

[prisma hill]

I just got the expansions, ended at l 60 with both Dragoon,DarkK and White mage, do you think that I should use DK for faster progerss and lower waitt imes?

[fast talon]

so basically almost any of rowena's vendors other than kugane/reach

[twilit arch]

mhm

[fast talon]

thats your call to make if you really want fast queue times

i would go with whichever you find more fun

[prisma hill]

Well, I like playing DK

[fast talon]

then go for it

the fast queue times are just a bonus

[twilit arch]

up to you, but personally would do the bulk of msq with dragoon if you enjoy it since drk/whm can do dungeon spam easily

[prisma hill]

White Mage is a bit stressful during the large boss fights xd

[fast talon]

thats a good tip

[prisma hill]

well dps will go through the msq battles faster I guess

[twilit arch]

not by much

ultimately tho its whatever you feel like playing on

[frosty creek]

Can the size of the icons within the minimap be changed?

[prisma hill]

Does stormblood have a theme job to play as, like in heavensward did with Dragoon?

[twilit arch]

ehhh

sam and mnk were the poster jobs

[kind burrow]

I am searching and cant find my guardian corps boots which i bought on the mogstation- i used /isearch and could find anything- is there a place i can get them again?

[twilit arch]

you'd have to contact support and make use of your one time restore

[kind burrow]

wait is there no NPC in game that can give it back??

i looked at the recompense and calamity salvager- are they not supposed to be there? also how could one possibly be rid of a piece bought on the mogstation? is the discard button not disabled?

[twilit arch]

they're only there if you did the event

[kind burrow]

oh well... i guess i'll try that- thank you.

Could you just tell me how to contact them?

[twilit arch]

should be an option in the support desk

[quiet condor]

are dancers separate classes or are they advanced versions of a class

er rather do you lead from a class into dancers

[twilit arch]

dancer is a job, it has no base class

[quiet condor]

ah so whenever i unlock the level requirement or quest or whatever for it i can just go into it

thats good to know thx

[twilit arch]

mhm

[warm snow]

Only arr jobs have a base class

All other jobs are self contained

[kind burrow]

Only harassment, cheating, bug report and suggestions- does it fall under bug report?

[twilit arch]

hmm

https://support.na.square-enix.com/faqarticle.php?id=5382&la=1&kid=68222 =_= isn't the most helpful but it says to search the database for "how to contact a gm"

[sacred oracle]

what is direct chat?

[twilit arch]

lets you start chatting without having to hit enter

generally useful for controller users

not so much for keyboard/mouse

[sacred oracle]

oh i notice it now

cant move

xD

[barren granite]

can i add a friend of mine to a squadron mission ? or is it jsut bots only ?

[twilit arch]

just npcs

[patent spire]

what does this actually do?

[tropic junco]

Shadowbringers on Steam contains all the previous expansions up until most recent right

[twilit arch]

its your tank stance

[twilit arch]

it has stormblood it in, you need to buy the starter edition (which is a realm reborn+ heavensward) if you don't own that as well

[tropic junco]

ok ok, then thats fine

[leaden ginkgo]

hello all good morning ! does any1 know a good rotation for lv.50 red mage?

[pulsar escarp]

you press it once at the beginning of th edungeon (make sure it's on either way) and then go whale.

[crimson jolt]

Hi i just started and am in character creation, i need to pick a class but i would like to be a ninja when its available, which one should i pick?

[pulsar escarp]

(makes sure that all the mobs are focused on you)

[pulsar escarp]

pick whatever is aesthetically pleasing! stat differences on races don't matter

[whole wasp]

any is fine. you just need get to lvl 10, do the class quest for your starting quest and go to the rogue trainer.

[leaden ginkgo]

its 1 character can play all jobs.. so pick anything

[twilit arch]

arcanist or maruader both start in limsa

[pulsar escarp]

oh

AHHHH

lol

[whole wasp]

in this case, you might want to pick a class that starts in the rogue city, arcanist or marauder

[wintry chasm]

^

[pulsar escarp]

yeah, anything in lims alominsa

[crimson jolt]

ah okay thanks!#

[pulsar escarp]

[twilit arch]

so would recommend chosing one of those so you can get rogue once you hit lvl 10 and complete your lv10 class quest

[pulsar escarp]

explore a little and you'll be able to find the rogue guild eventually

[wintry chasm]

^ otherwise have to wait till you get to level 15 main story

[tidal yarrow]

in what area do people usually farm the memories of the dying?

[patent spire]

sorry, could you explain how it works? thanks

[twilit arch]

when you have that on, all of your skills have increase aggro generation

So you keep the mobs attention on you

and not your party

[wintry chasm]

Yeah the mobs attack the person with most aggro

[patent spire]

is it a toggle?

[whole wasp]

the game calls it emnity but its all the same thing. emnity = threat= aggro

[wintry chasm]

It is a toggle

[whole wasp]

its a toggle yea.

[patent spire]

ahh okay thank you

any reason to not keep it on?

[whole wasp]

keep in mind that it sometimes turn itself off when you sync and instance

[twilit arch]

in 8 man parties, if you're not the one main tanking

[whole wasp]

only when there are multiple tanks yea

[twilit arch]

can turn it off for a bit so you don't steal aggro

[wintry chasm]

^ otherwise it becomes unpredictable to the healers on who will take a lot of damage and stuff

[pulsar escarp]

it's recommended you have it on for a little bit afterwards though, just so you have enough to be second on the list - that way if main tank dies, a poor dps doesn't get clobbered

[twilit arch]

but can put it back on later on the fight incase something goes wrong

and the MT dies, you'll have aggro

or hopefully have aggro

[pulsar escarp]

you can see if you will on the list

[patent spire]

ahh okay thank you so much!

this means its on right?

[pulsar escarp]

yep

should be pretty clear for all tanks

[patent spire]

okay thanks!

one more question, im lvl 15, i heard there was a class quest at lvl 10

how do i access it?

[wintry chasm]

Go to your class guild

And talk to the teacher

Also the class quests should be appearing under the main story tracker in the top left and can find it there

Also don't neglect those, very important

[patent spire]

the way of the gladiator?

[wintry chasm]

Way of the Gladiator

That's the level 1 class quest

IIRC

[patent spire]

ooo

[wintry chasm]

Gotta do it anyway

[patent spire]

oops haha

thanks tho!

[pulsar escarp]

always do those when you see them by the way

they're important, and when you level other classes you'll have them for those too

[wintry chasm]

^ really good

[pulsar escarp]

I guess calisaie already said so

[wintry chasm]

Your job, skill, gear, systems like the hunting log which is good for leveling, all locked behind class/job quests

[sacred oracle]

it means i cant get exp anymore?

[wintry chasm]

You won't get the bonus xp for doing the roulette. You still get the XP from whatever content it puts you in

Aka it's not worth doing again

[sacred oracle]

okay thankyu

[pulsar escarp]

if you want to level, do the highest dungeon you can at the time on your class

(assuming it's not 50/60/70 because those don't give much exp because it assumes you're at level cap for the expansion)

[rich gazelle]

hello, how easy is it to create and level up your free company if i have a group of 5-8 friends playing together?

or is it better if we try to join existing ones?

the benefits at rank 8 seems to be very good

some of us have just reached stormblood

level 70 ish

the rest are heavensward level 60ish

[twilit arch]

creating your own fc is pretty easy, just need 3 signatures and 15k gil

[rich gazelle]

how about leveling it?

[twilit arch]

you'll level that naturally just by playing

[rich gazelle]

ok, should've done that long time back...

wasted weeks of playtime haha

[young steppe]

Anyone here knows if the 3rd retainer is account wide?

[twilit arch]

yes

[abstract parcel]

does road to 70 apply to doh/dol?

[twilit arch]

yes

[abstract parcel]

wow that’s wild. is there a good guide to leveling them most people use?

[minor ridge]

i cant buy the full version on steam if my account region is japan can i?

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi guys does anyone have tips for finding an FC?

[patent spire]

is there a way to get a mount early? walking takes ages

[whole wasp]

unfortunately nope. mount unlock at lvl 20 MSQ. alternatively, your friend can uber you

[young steppe]

I do

[patent spire]

msq?

[whole wasp]

Main Scenario/Story Quest

[leaden ginkgo]

Main Story Quests

[whole wasp]

these

[young steppe]

But it's also a RMT site so I am unsure if I can link here, it has good leveling guide tho

[patent spire]

ohhh

so im pretty close ig?

[young steppe]

Do tell me if you want the link @abstract parcel

[patent spire]

since im lvl 15

[leaden ginkgo]

i was level 30 til i got the horse

[whole wasp]

yea. should be close. theres like another 2 or 3 dungeons and you'll be there

take note that its the MSQ level, your own level doesnt really matter

[patent spire]

ahhh

[whole wasp]

lvl 15, you should be doing the envoy quest or the pirate dungeon

[young steppe]

So does that mean if I play on Tonberry, my character in Kujata also gets the items from the 3rd retainer?

[twilit arch]

not the items

they'll be able to hire a 3 retainer

[brittle umbra]

is there a way to disable the quest accept/complete sounds lol

[lament citrus]

^

[young steppe]

Oh, so I can't transfer gil/items amongst myself then

Bummer

[lament citrus]

Mute game basically

[whole wasp]

might be under sound effects i think?

but those specifically, no

[young steppe]

Cause I was thinking of leveling 1 80 DoW/DoM and 80 CUL just to get the allowances for Coffee Biscuit to get "passive income" so to speak

[lament citrus]

Usually ppl ask trusted friend to transfer to alts

[young steppe]

Yeah, guess that is the go-to

Thanks all!

[lament citrus]

If its under same DC that is

[young steppe]

Yup yup

[abstract parcel]

hey sorry i missed that ping but i would check out that link

[lusty oasis]

Question about tank burst rotation:

say no mercy is coming up in 15 seconds and my oGCDs are up and my cartridge combo is up as well

do I just save those for No mercy?

[honest anvil]

holding ogcd or anything for 15 seconds is not a good idea

[lusty oasis]

so just use my abilities every time they're up?

[patent spire]

are these blue quests important?

[honest anvil]

definitely fit as much as you can in your burst window; just not at the cost of delaying or overcaping

[lusty oasis]

unless of course No Mercy is up in 5 seconds then I think I should definitely wait it out

[honest anvil]

even 5 sec is too long …

[green grail]

gnb has a lot of 30, 60 and 90s cooldowns iirc, so when you use everything asap they will reallign every now and then

[twilit arch]

they indicate that they unlock something so for the most part, yes you should do them. That said you can usually skip the ones called "So you want to be x" (class unlocks) or "Leves of X" (leves are basically like repeatable quest but aren't very good for combat classes)

[honest anvil]

are you doing the proper gnb rotation? i dont main it but sounds like there’s some drifting problem there

[patent spire]

ahh so i dont do stuff like this

tyty kael

[lusty oasis]

I'm only level 70(overleveled) without the Continutation skill yet so I only have 68 below skills

[warm snow]

!faq questicons

[zinc orbit]

What do all these quest icons mean?

- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.

[warm snow]

Go do your job quests

[lusty oasis]

I can't beat the level 70 quest yet

[warm snow]

Continuation is your best skill

It expects near level cap gear for level 70 you can buy with silver choco feather at calamity salvager if you were recruited or you can buy with poetics in rhalgrs/kugane after beating stormblood

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey, i'm actually level 50, unless i misunderstood, when i'll finish the quest to become an astromancer, i'll be level 30 right ?

[warm snow]

Or you can set it to very easy after failing once

[honest anvil]

yes

[warm snow]

No shame in going the very easy due to the gear scaling

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok ty !

[fallen topaz]

You'll still be level 50 in your old job though

[storm iris]

Is setting up mogstation orchestrion rolls on personal houses for gil against ToS?

[leaden ginkgo]

where do i go to start the fairy quest?

Fly is unlocked when you finish ARR ?

[whole wasp]

Fly is unlocked in ARR zones when you finish ARR (2.0)

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok ty for your quick answer !!

[split ridge]

Hello guys, I am currently playing on a free trial account. If when I reach lvl 60 I buy the starter edition and then shadowbringers (to get all expansions) do i get both months of sub included with them or they don't stack? Thank you all in advance

[twilit arch]

you only get 30 days free from the starter edition

shadowbringers doesn't come with game time

[near hound]

Why don't you buy the complete edition anyway

Isn't the starter edition practically the same as the free trial except without trial limitations like you can use chat outside of dungeons and use retainers

[warm snow]

You only get sub time for buy the base game, dlc doesn't count

[split ridge]

Ok ill buy complete edition then

[patent spire]

my job class quest is telling me to goto camp drybones but my msq is still in central thanalan, do i still goto camp drybones or should i do msq until it takes me there

[split ridge]

Did some quick calculations and I could save like 5-6 euros if the sub period stacked from both starter edition and shadowbringers, but noticed now that as kaelwryn said that shadowbringers does not come with 30 days of sub

[stray mason]

How safe is it to play copyrighted music as a bard?

[whole wasp]

either way is fine

[twilit arch]

basically don't make a video and upload it to something like youtube and you're fine

[split remnant]

Is there a webpage that lists all the glamours? Like let's say I want to see all the head pieces available for All Classes.

[heavy wadi]

https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/ sorta? they have a list of all gearsets but it's slightly outdated

[slate spindle]

https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/glamours is one of the more comprehensive screenshot lists

[whole wasp]

you can try the garlandtools database too

https://garlandtools.org/db/#

[split remnant]

Thank you!

[patent spire]

ok tyyt

[prisma hill]

I just started the 3.1+ content, how long does that take?

[twilit arch]

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Head is also an option for it

[split remnant]

That one has over 2 thousand items, which also include job-specific ones 😅

I'm sure if you filter out job-specific ones it'd cut it in at least half :p

[twilit arch]

most of the all class head gear is gonna be in the Level 1 category

[slate spindle]

There's also https://ffxiv.dlunch.net/model but I'm not sure the last time this was updated

[split remnant]

https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/gearsets?filter[orderBy]=patch&filter[showGear]=hd&filter[showFemale]=0&search=&filter[job][]=pld&filter[job][]=war&filter[job][]=drk&filter[job][]=gnb&filter[job][]=whm&filter[job][]=sch&filter[job][]=ast&filter[job][]=mnk&filter[job][]=drg&filter[job][]=nin&filter[job][]=sam&filter[job][]=brd&filter[job][]=mch&filter[job][]=dnc&filter[job][]=blm&filter[job][]=smn&filter[job][]=rdm&filter[job][]=blu&filter[job][]=crp&filter[job][]=bsm&filter[job][]=arm&filter[job][]=gsm&filter[job][]=ltw&filter[job][]=wvr&filter[job][]=alc&filter[job][]=cul&filter[job][]=min&filter[job][]=btn&filter[job][]=fsh&filter[gender][]=male&filter[maximumLvl]=80&page=1
This page allows pretty flexible filters, so I could filter to all jobs, male, head only.

[slate spindle]

That url though

[near hound]

Yes but I'm like 99% sure that complete edition comes with everything so far while starter only comes with ARR and HW

[split remnant]

It's with all the filters applied, sorry 😅

[slate spindle]

Lol it's fine, it's something I laugh about when I see the end result. FFlogs has it too when you do lengthy queries on the front end

[split remnant]

Oh, it actually only ends up with like 20 results...

[kindred frost]

Exactly my thoughts lol

[split ridge]

Yeah, the only way buying starter was worth was if shadowbringers came with another 30 days of sub when you register it, but it's not the case so it is worthless

[steady gate]

Morning. I've just joined a company. And gotten the chocobo quest. How do I actually ear seals to buy it? and raise my rank?

I am stumped

[twilit arch]

do the next main scenario quest

it'll give you the seals needed

[faint flare]

Complete edition Is literally identical to starter edition + shadowbringers separately

[split ridge]

I know

[steady gate]

ok I'll do

[near hound]

So as a warrior, what stat is most important

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a reason the Pagos Field Dressing is so expensive

[green grail]

people don't do eureka much

[patent spire]

does it matter what difficulty i select?

[faint flare]

No

[leaden ginkgo]

Easy gives you +50% HP and damage

[faint flare]

Very easy is extreme baby mode but no chance in difference

[leaden ginkgo]

Very Easy gives you double damage and HP

[patent spire]

so i just do easy because its faster

[leaden ginkgo]

sure

[faint flare]

It only appears if you constantly fail a solo instance so lesser skilled players can actually do the story

[near hound]

Does anyone know?

[storm sapphire]

You want the highest ilvl gear you can get, then for substats you wanna make sure you got enough skill speed for 5 fell cleaves, after that its Crit>Det>Tenacity

[patent spire]

bless

[near hound]

Thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

The only time I'd say you need to lower the diff is for a very specific story instance in post SB

because its bullshit otherwise

[faint flare]

No its not

You don't need to

Just do the mechanics

It's not hard

[leaden ginkgo]

Lol

true

i didnt know you could change difficulty

lol

[lilac thicket]

Is it just me or is it pretty hard to gain Skybuilders' Scripts? I just finished leveling Botanist & Miner from 50 to 80 and all I got from thousands of mats was like 6.5K scripts?

[astral bolt]

umm... how does subscription via Crysta work?

[leaden ginkgo]

6.5k scrips is a pretty decent amount

[lilac thicket]

The mounts cost like 8.4K... i was hoping I'd be able to buy at least 1 from leveling up my gatherers

[faint flare]

1 crysta is 1 cent...so yoy just add the required amount of crysta to your account and use that

[astral bolt]

oh ok o.o

[lapis bloom]

Heyo, I started playing yesterday and after reaching lvl 17 i switched class to lancer and now im kinda stuck at lvl 6 and i dont know how to lvl,Any tips? I cant do the main quest :/

[faint flare]

Do your hunting logs

[cunning loom]

you'll need ~3.2k grade 4 resources to get 8.4k scrips on average

since every 5 rewards 13 scrips at the highest tier that isn't timed

[faint flare]

Leveling Guide for Alt jobs 🍻

Level 1 to 70 in five days (Stormblood)

[lilac thicket]

daily roulettes (maybe you have leveling and guildhests unlucked?) and then do leves

[faint flare]

Can't roulettes under 16

[copper thistle]

how do i unlock ninja

[outer star]

The hunting logs are a good start, followed by leves and FATEs

[lilac thicket]

Ah, i read that wrong then, i thought he was a lv 17 lancer now

[outer star]

If you unlocked palace of the dead, that can get you sorted for a while

[shut panther]

The rate is far higher for higher level items

[lapis bloom]

So hunting logs is my option? i will check out what that is

[shut panther]

I think gathering is pretty bad for scrips by itself anyway

[outer star]

Press H

Each class has its own hunting log to complete

There's also one for the grand companies later on

[lapis bloom]

Alright i will try that

[outer star]

Leves are repeatable quests that you can do as well

[leaden ginkgo]

What's the fastest way to xp my freshly created astromancer pls ?

Savage tokens I'm not sure

[faint flare]

Savage is fully unlocked

[languid creek]

When I got it it had a message about loot reached until reset which made me wonder

[faint flare]

Normal mode blades are still locked

[open rivet]

I assume you mean ||the soroban fight w/ tatatru & genbu?||

[oak ice]

You don't need to lower the difficulty of any solo duty lmao, they're all very easy

[languid creek]

dang it, ty. I've been playing long enough to grab them each week, didnt realize I needed them till today though

[open rivet]

yeah, but that fight has me shiver,
||tataru|| behaves worse than a boosted sprout in that fight :C

[shut panther]

The only reason you would is either a) you didn't understand it (this is fair, sometimes the mechanics are kind of poorly explained b) you're trying to do them in awful gear

But if you actually know what you're supposed to do.. and you're not in bad gear.. they aren't difficult

[storm sapphire]

is there a way to disable the game making me say I'm not ready during a ready check if I'm doing a fate?

[cunning loom]

you could just let them know in party chat?

[green grail]

ready check in combat will always just auto-decline

gotta say you're ready

[celest snow]

so i'm reaching the end of SB and for a while now i've wanted to go for the kamuy mounts once i get the chance but i was wondering, is it advised to go for them once you've completed SHB since it will be a lot easier or is it not too hard?

[cunning loom]

maybe once you've hit 80 at least

[celest snow]

:/

[cunning loom]

you'll still need to do a few mechanics since the level gap isn't that huge

[open rivet]

Are there any good ways to level a FC w/o GC seal turn ins?
friend of mine wanted to make their own & now wants to get actions asap, while being fresh outta ultima.
should I just farm arr EXs w/ them for the 500-ish seals per 2 minute?
dungeons take too long for too little at their point.

[rose hearth]

hey guys im new here ! is there a channel for timeworn map portal hunt?

[open rivet]

the centurio discord has a channel for it,
tho it's mostly just zonureskins, tho if you make a Party Finder for it, it should fill reasonably.
(just be aware if you choose treasure hunt on PF it locks the "only search on world" option)

[rose hearth]

ahh thats why its harder to find ppl on pf

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a way to transfer from SE trial account to steam?

[faint flare]

Buy the game on steam and put the code in mogstation

[onyx kiln]

is this something you can only get in the savage version of delbrum?

[leaden ginkgo]

it's blurred out tho

[alpine shadow]

"Enter Registration Code"

[ember vault]

pf not easy for timeworns

[faint flare]

It shares the windows slot

[faint flare]

Yes, law order is only savage

[celest snow]

lately i've found it really hard to get through the story of SB but i'm really close to the first end credits now. does SB get better towards the end?

[open rivet]

ye, my advice is to use none so you search on all worlds & just remake the party before digging for the chest.

[shut panther]

Post patch SB is much better than 4.0, imo

[open rivet]

Opinion: it doesn't get better until the first credits.
Post is definitely better though

[rose hearth]

i see , thanks for the tip!

[near hound]

What’s so bad about SB

[celest snow]

guessing because it bridges to SHB

[shut panther]

Unfocused, IMO

Honestly? The bridging to shb is the weakest point of 4.x

[celest snow]

i think it could have been made a litte bit more interesting imo

[pulsar escarp]

Post SB was cool for me

[warm snow]

It's all subjective and a topic for #general-discussion

[leaden ginkgo]

hi, I have one more question. Will you be able to use third party app like the discord overlay on a steam account?

[shut panther]

Basically, 4.x focuses on the best SB characters and is just tighter in general

[pulsar escarp]

Subjective but yeah sometimes it’s boring but stick at it

[celest snow]

i will!

ty!

[pulsar escarp]

[open rivet]

@celest snow just a TW for after the trial ||w/ zenos|| if you dislike self-harm stuff.

[pulsar escarp]

Oh true

Don’t say much else

[celest snow]

"TW"?

[open rivet]

trigger warning

[celest snow]

oh

ah

ty

[pulsar escarp]

Most shocking violence for me was at end of post HW tho

[celest snow]

me too

[open rivet]

after sloppeh?

[pulsar escarp]

Yeah

Didn’t expect it

[open rivet]

it's up there

[pulsar escarp]

I think the one you mentioned isn’t as bad

but it’s nice to be warned a little

[dapper oyster]

i just saw someone floating... how?!

[still osprey]

Hey morning guys, I was wondering if someone could help me with my dps ui/hud layout and how to set up my monk hotkey. I’m a returning player I just want optimize for end game raid and just improve my play. Any images of other people will be very helpful as well. Also Don’t worry about rotations.

[open rivet]

if they had a weird name (looking like keymash) most likely a bot cheating.

[faint flare]

Omega emote

[pulsar escarp]

#protips-and-ui might have a more specific cater to what you want

@still osprey

[faint flare]

The 200$ omega statue emote

Let's you float

[open rivet]

^ only if they had a shining sword / spear as well as floating

[pulsar escarp]

I mean otherwise they’re prolly standing on an invisible edge

or smth

[open rivet]

bot is plausible as well, way too many of those teleporting around

[pulsar escarp]

If they looked like a distinctive player then it prolly wasn’t one lol

[open rivet]

we got no details, so all is plausible :)

[spark jacinth]

Anyone else having issues connecting to servers? NA-Diablos

[open rivet]

anyone got anything on this?
about to just unsync ultima ballad or garuda w/ them & grind it out.

[astral bolt]

what is this chocobo's backpiece?!

I need to know!

[faint flare]

SoS Ex barding

Barding of light

[hallow wolf]

In terms of armor, are there specific variants for most classes, or are there mainly just a few “categories” of armor, like cloth/armor/etc for later game? And is there a list of classes with overlapping armor types, since I’m planning or making two characters?

[shut panther]

most armour is role based

[open rivet]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/
server status says diabolos is up.
check if your isp is experiencing issues I guess

[shut panther]

but each specific job gets an "artifact" set every level expansion, which is basically the canonical look for that job

.. why do you plan to make two characters?

[hallow wolf]

Because I’d want to, lol

[shut panther]

generally alts are not common in ffxiv

[magic stirrup]

I

[shut panther]

because you can play everything on a single character

[magic stirrup]

I'd do it just to look pretty with another race

[hallow wolf]

I mean sure, but I just want multiple characters

Even doing MSQs and stuff for both

[magic stirrup]

I'm sticking to Lalafell (hopefully) with this one

[dusky creek]

guys i tried asking many ppl on game and checked reddit but still kinda lost .. i made a mistake and bought realm reborn msq , and im lvl 30 now i only opened the dragoon class and place of dead not knowing how to progress and whats more confusing there is literally side quests every where XD

[shut panther]

you can ignore any quest that isn't

[sullen niche]

I'm trying to check my ping for ff14 by using the resource monitor, but there's 2 connections showing for ff14 with different pings? which one do I look at xD

[open rivet]

reasons for alts: leves (biscuits), other world's marketboard sell prices, retainer or FC workshop items.
nothing a casual would strife to "optimize" for, but it's reasons.

[shut panther]

if you don't know what you should be doing, the top left quest tracker is a good place to start

[hallow wolf]

I just wanted to play the roles out for characters, man

Funny Lalafell tank

[dusky creek]

i need to hit 50 to continue msq

[shut panther]

and you're a dragoon?

[dusky creek]

at quest called "coming to ishgard" i think

[dusky creek]

yes

[shut panther]

do all of the roulettes you have available in duty finder, then do potd

[dusky creek]

i should dungeons roulettes place of the dead till 50 i assume?

[ember vault]

potd can make you dislike your job if you do it too much

or not fully grasp it as you can roll over most mobs and bosses

[shut panther]

roulettes are the best exp/time, but they're only one per day

[ember vault]

like machinist is stupid broken in potd

[shut panther]

other than that, as dps potd is probably the best exp/time, but if your queues aren't bad the other option is grinding the highest level dungeon you have access to

[dusky creek]

how long it takes to lvl a job to max (approximately)

[shut panther]

80?

[dusky creek]

y

[pulsar escarp]

Depends

As alt?

[modest igloo]

msq takes 200 ish hours

[shut panther]

it depends on how you're doing it

like, if you're just doing roulettes each day, then stopping, it'll be the lowest playtime, but long time irl

[pulsar escarp]

I mean I’d say a couple weeks

Maybe less

If you also do highest level levelling dungeon in spare time

[shut panther]

I've been doing levelling daily on my ast every day and I'm at like.. 69? now and I started about a month ago

maybe a bit longer than that

but that's spending no more than 20 minutes a day on it

[pulsar escarp]

A month?!

Oh i see

[shut panther]

like I said, literally just levelling queue and out

[pulsar escarp]

mm depends on how much time you spend in game and if you do stuff outside of exhausting roulettes

[shut panther]

I did mch before that and I think I went 30-71 in less than a week

because I actually grinded

[pulsar escarp]

Mmhm yeah

[brazen pollen]

hi a just bought shadowbringers on steam but I dont understand where to find the code to activate it on my account can someone help pls ?

[faint flare]

Enter expansion code on mogstation

As always

[brazen pollen]

yeah but the thing I dont know where is the code

[faint flare]

In your Steam keys
