[ornate wedge]

@raven star @glass pier Oh I guess there is that! Thanks lads/lasses!

[outer star]

As for what a tank bars look like at endgame

[glass pier]

dungeons giving like massive exp - 250k exp per dungeon, but just 50k per msq

[raven star]

@ornate wedge all blue quests are unlocks, just port around xD

@glass pier if ur going through patch quests, it's locked to 50/60/70 so the exp is low, are you after EXP?

[misty field]

Hmm, I'm about to download it, so where should I download it from

The free trial

[raven star]

@misty field google ff14 free trial

Linking it can be a bit weird, sometimes it doesnt work depending on country

[glass pier]

I like the story also, just saying that exp in dungs is nice

[raven star]

oh i was wondering if ur trying to level to do more story @glass pier

[misty field]

I'm in the US

[glass pier]

ye, i finished at level 46 and next quest was 49

so i did few dungeons

[raven star]

Level roulette and Palace of the dead is good exp

[glass pier]

i did 2x palace of death, and that dungeon with ice dragon

also dzemael darkhold

[raven star]

Easy xD

[limber karma]

[glass pier]

I played like 30 different mmos, but this is the best.

[raven star]

Sure, is that the only thing u paid for?

[crisp field]

hey guys if I create a character on a world am I stuck playing there or can I change world later?

[raven star]

You can transfer worlds with a payment or visit worlds

[crisp field]

the 2 world I was told to play on OCE server are both full so should I wait or

[gleaming cosmos]

hello ^^ when viewing my party members in the map they appear as a tiny blue dot, is there a way to increase the size or visibility of this?

[raven star]

OCE servers wont be out till next year

[limber karma]

i brought the collectors edition via steam, i claimed the pre-urchase bonus conent one but the code for the collectors edition content is not going in

[raven star]

I'm from australia and play on Excalibur

[misty field]

I am trying to reset my password because I forgot it, but it asks for a fucking password, so I can change my password. Square enix had the worst most outdated website of all time

[crisp field]

yeah but people online said to to go kajata and tonberry

but they are both currently not accepting new player

[raven star]

@limber karma did you buy the collectors edition on steam? And got the base game bundle?

[crisp field]

so I was gona go to a world with exp bnous

[patent spire]

nvm i got it

[raven star]

nice xD

[crisp field]

but what if no one there speaks english I dunno what to do

[raven star]

What country are you from?

[crisp field]

australia

[raven star]

Same! NA servers are fine. I do end game content without issue

We get out own servers next year for patch 6.1,

[crisp field]

but time zone tho

wouldnt people be playing at our 3am

[raven star]

Time zones are fine, the game is pretty active

[limber karma]

is it ok for me to post screenshots here?

[raven star]

@limber karma if it's for help I think it's fine

[limber karma]

https://gyazo.com/30ecf0290b4f7348b5a0db0a6de75a13

[raven star]

Do you have the code?

[limber karma]

yes

[raven star]

Go to the Mog Station to activate it

[limber karma]

and when i try to redeem it like the others it says its not valid

[pine onyx]

What do I use yellow gatherer's scripts now that I've started unlocking white gear?

[outer star]

Materia is always a solid option

[raven star]

Does the link to the Mog Station say NA?

[pine onyx]

For gil?

[raven star]

Main issue I see people have is they make a EU account and buy a NA copy of the game.

[marsh ferry]

Heya, I don't even playing FFXIV but i want to try trial, is this game have mechanic like WoW where you can buy abonament using in-game gold?

[twilit arch]

you can't use the collector's edition code for endwalker yet

endwalker hasn't released yet

[raven star]

Can only do the pre order code,

[outer star]

If you want, I suggested materia since for crafters it's significantly more important in endgame

[limber karma]

ahhhhh okay

so i have to wait till november?

[raven star]

yup

[outer star]

No means to sub with in-game currency, no

[raven star]

Just use the pre order code for now, gives u the earrings/minion

[limber karma]

ah okay cause i was panicking, i thought i got scammed by steam lol

[raven star]

Nah ur good, EW isnt out yet xD

[scarlet cairn]

Are the side quests worth doing in the mid-level? or should i just solely focus on msq

[limber karma]

ok yeah i got the earring im a new player so i thought it would be really handy

[raven star]

Blue quests and MSQ, but it's up to you really

[twilit arch]

you can ignore and focus on and

[marsh ferry]

Ok and i have one more question, maybe stupid - How much this game is like WoW? xD

[raven star]

Maybe watch a stream? Never played wow so I cant help u there xD

[twilit arch]

similar enough that some skills cross over

[raven star]

I am watching someone right now who is a ex wow player

[twilit arch]

but different enough that you shouldn't go in expecting things

[honest anvil]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/wiki/wowrefugee/

[twilit arch]

to be exactly or similar to wow

[marsh ferry]

I was watching few gameplay videos of pvp and pve but i don't know whats going on the screen mostly 😆

[outer star]

I say the best approach is to take it in as if you're playing a new game entirely

[raven star]

Pvp is the worst part of the game imo, it's not that best xD

[scarlet cairn]

should i do all of the blue ones?

[astral badge]

I heard there was a transmog system, I think its called glamour. Ive searched up when I can do this and Ive gotten like 2 different answers. The ff14 wiki guide says level 15 but a lot of reddit posts say 50

[raven star]

@astral badge It's level 15, it used to be level 50

[outer star]

Trying to compare every aspect with another game isn't a fun mindset to have

[twilit arch]

most of them. the mains one you can skip are "So you want to be X" (they are class unlocks) and "Leves of X" (leves are repeatable quests but aren't very good for combat jobs, can unlock them later anyway) @scarlet cairn

[astral badge]

Ahh

Cool Cool

[outer star]

iirc level 50 was the original

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a cap on how many "professions" you can learn?

[outer star]

It probably changed

[scarlet cairn]

ok shit.. ive just ignored all of them except the lancer ones.

[outer star]

No, get them all if you want

[scarlet cairn]

guess i have to go back to starting cities and do them all

[outer star]

Case in point

[raven star]

@scarlet cairn dont need to do them all, I can suggest the ones to do if you are after story

[scarlet cairn]

what do you mean after story ?

[outer star]

Same with combat jobs

[whole ember]

Started messing with crafting, is there a way to set up a macro if you're just wanting to create one thing over and over without hitting each individual button?

[outer star]

You have no restrictions when it comes to what you want to play

[whole ember]

i just dont know how macros work exactly

[outer star]

You could

[raven star]

Someone streaming doesnt have voice working, can anyone help?

Everything is on 100, but the voices are not playing

[faint flare]

You.can macro crafting rotations but not macro clicking the synthesis button

[outer star]

Although there IS quick synthesis

Which lets you mass craft items

[whole ember]

yeah i just wanna do the rotation since no matter if some of them fail, i know its gonna be successful

oooo

yeah maybe i dont have that yet? im only lvl 9

[faint flare]

Majority of crafting is done via macros for higher end stuff

[whole ember]

Yeah I do not have the quick button just yet

[outer star]

Without the macros the process is very complicated

[faint flare]

It unlocks at lv10

[whole ember]

ah

right around the corner then, legit 21 xp away

so quick synth just seems to be en masse creation, without any bearing on quality, which i would assume is fine at lower levels, but absolute no no later on

[twilit arch]

well depends

[whole ember]

just trying to dip my toes into non-combat as im feeling burned out tbh and wanted something kinda tedious like this for when im more tired

[leaden ginkgo]

how can i make cross world party

[outer star]

Well, yes, it can make HQ items but not consistently

[twilit arch]

at higher levels if youre mass producing intermediate mats then yes its used pretty often

[faint flare]

You can guarantee high quality crafts later on so

[twilit arch]

especially when you can easily guarantee HQ crafts without intermediate mats being HQ

[outer star]

At 80 you get an ability that maxes the quality bar for every item 70 and below

[twilit arch]

tbh quick synthesis is kind of bad at low levels when your goal is exp

because how much exp you get from a craft is dictated by how much quality you put into it

[whole ember]

ah really, i assumed it would be better as a source of afk xp

[outer star]

Quick synth is mainly good to mass produce intermediary materials

[twilit arch]

its not

xp is basically cut in half doing quick synth

[faint flare]

Raising thr quality bar gives you more xp

[whole ember]

oh wow

[outer star]

Yep

[whole ember]

ok ok so can someone kind of explain macros to me then? i have the gist but im just not entirely sure how to set up macros when it doesnt pertain to like, emotes, but actual skills/commands

[outer star]

Like say, making a stack of 99 lumber one by one would take an eternity

Macros are a little complicated to explain in brief

[whole ember]

is there a decent guide i could dive into? does the in game one do it well enough?

[left whale]

Macros is when u google up someone elses macro and copy paste

[outer star]

The game does provide a trial synthesis option

[left whale]

You know it’s true

[scarlet cairn]

should i do all of the beast tribe quests on a daily basis ?

[outer star]

Which lets you try crafting an item without expending materials

That depends, do you want their mounts?

[whole ember]

man thats cool

i like the crafting, this is exactly what i wanted

[north lotus]

Materia melding stats to go for with GNB?

[whole ember]

something chill for when i dont wanna grind msq

[scarlet cairn]

not sure what the rewards are tbh, if its only cosmetic/misc. i dont care for it @outer star

[outer star]

Beast tribes offer decent exp, especially after ARR

[gleaming shadow]

Hello. I have some questions about the "Sprout" new player symbol thing: When does it run out ?

[outer star]

After 90 days iirc

[worn flume]

when you reach shadowbringers and have 7 days playtime

[outer star]

or that

[left whale]

Me “chilling” in the firmament for 40 hours

[gleaming shadow]

What does "reach shadowbringers" mean ? Is that a stage of the main quest ?

[outer star]

My life for the past couple of weeks

[worn flume]

the current expansion

[gleaming shadow]

Also does that apply to all my jobs or just the one I reach with ?

[glossy flare]

once you advance your msq to that point

as in you start the first msq of shadowbringers

[glossy flare]

all jobs, it's a character thing

[gleaming shadow]

Thanks for the clarification !

[outer star]

The MSQ is universal to your character

[whole ember]

this is a bit of a different question, but i see metallic dye/dye in general on the marketplace going for decent prices. is that craftable?

[outer star]

I don't believe it is

Regular dye sure

[left whale]

You get those from the firmament

[whole ember]

ahhhhhhh

[left whale]

You buu them with currency obtained primarily from crafting

[outer star]

Which ones, cause

[whole ember]

im very grateful you all are so willing to answer questions but my questons just lead to more questions

[left whale]

So you are “crafting” the dye in a roundabout fashion

[outer star]

That's okay, it's what the channel is for!

[whole ember]

i see what you mean about the XP being much lower

980 for a high quality one vs 284 for normal quick one

[outer star]

HQ items are significantly better than the normal variant

[north lotus]

materia stats to go for on GNB?

[leaden ginkgo]

yo guys is the duty roulette : main scenario worth doing for exp ? (im lvl 50)

[outer star]

So much so the GC provisions will double the reward for handing HQ items

[raven star]

yup

[outer star]

It rewards a lot of exp

[leaden ginkgo]

okay tank you, so leveling roulette as well right ?

[whole ember]

Main Scenario exp is massive, especially compared to the other roulettes

[outer star]

MSQ, level and alliance roulettes are my go to for levelling alt jobs

[whole ember]

I usually get about 60% of a level on my lv 69 GNB, and then i watched the xp boost for doing raid, trial, and 607080 dng, and im fairly certain MSQ roulette wipied the floor with them

[leaden ginkgo]

i wish i could somehow play other job and put it into different job dps queue 30 mins 😦

the exp

[left whale]

Praetorium also takes like 47 minutes..

[north lotus]

breakpoint for comfy SkS for GNB?

[leaden ginkgo]

i just got the queue pop for that story time after 20m

lucky

[left whale]

2.4 or so

[north lotus]

ty

seconds or sks?

[outer star]

It's why I'm not fond of playing dps, long queues

[left whale]

Gcd seconds yes

[pine onyx]

Do I need to go to the crystarium or something for white scripts exchange?

[whole ember]

i ended up getting some friends to all agree we'd level 1 healer, 1 tank, 1 DPS, so we can queue together and eliminate queue times altogether for those. im sure you can find randoms willin to do this as well

[pine onyx]

Can only see yellow in gridania

[left whale]

U gotta be lvl80 first

[twilit arch]

you need to unlock the eulmore house of splendors

[pine onyx]

How do I do that?

[twilit arch]

The Boutique Always Wins is the quest to unlock it

[left whale]

no like u really gotta get to lvl80 first

[twilit arch]

they're already 80 on min

[left whale]

Oh my blind ass

[pine onyx]

Oh yeah didn't see that quest there

[north lotus]

@left whale any idea what Skill Speed stat must be to hit 2.4? like 1300 or something?

appreciate it

[left whale]

Well, that kinda appears to vary based on your lvl

[pine onyx]

So 500 is best ilvl for DoL bar crafted gear?

[north lotus]

80

[pine onyx]

Good to know

[midnight tinsel]

is there a list anywere how much the ff15 collab event stuff cost in mgp in total ?

[midnight tinsel]

thx

[whole ember]

Also another differnt topic question, ive enjoyed playing gunbreaker, but later in the game, is it any good, aka what role does it really fill? Paladin just seems to absolutely destroy is based on its utility alone.

[midnight tinsel]

its a tank

[left whale]

Oh welp
You need something like 1300-1400 ish

[north lotus]

tyvm

[pine onyx]

Of course

[left whale]

Im pretty sure gunbreaker singlehandedly doubled the tank population

[pine onyx]

All jobs are viable in endgame, and gunbreakers are also very good

[north lotus]

well you start it at 80 right? lol

[whole ember]

yeah i know its a tank, but it just seems so damage oriented, and i didnt know if that damage was worth the sacrifice in raw utility the paladin brings. i havent messed with drk or war, but i enjoyed gnb a lot, but i dont know enough about the game to really understand what it brings to the table

[north lotus]

also dark knight seems more pop

70*

[midnight tinsel]

iirc paladin has currently the most damage ?

[pine onyx]

Isn't it gunbreaker?

[left whale]

Pretty sure its gnb

[north lotus]

it is

[tropic flame]

the difference isnt too big though

[twilit arch]

You're not sacrificing that much utility

[tropic flame]

compared to other tanks

[twilit arch]

by going gnb

pld doesn't have that much significantly more utility than the other tanks

[midnight tinsel]

yeah damage rankiing for eden

[north lotus]

What stats do they go for after SkS? DH or Tenacity?

[left whale]

Aww yeah, 1% more dps
We’re number one! We’re number one!

[north lotus]

damn crit first?

interesting

[left whale]

Blue dps brah

[marsh ferry]

Is there any p2w in ffxiv? Is everything can be gained just by playing a game?

[midnight tinsel]

theres a cash shop

[patent spire]

whats the difference between the 3 companies?, does it matter which one i choose

[midnight tinsel]

for cosmetics and story / job skip

[honest anvil]

there’s no p2w for actual combat stuff

[midnight tinsel]

@patent spirelocation and cosmetics

[twilit arch]

!faq grandcompany

[zinc orbit]

Grand Company FAQ

Which Grand Company should I choose?

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:

Grand Company Gear

How do I get Grand Company Seals?

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.

[honest anvil]

any additional payment is for glamours and mount and emote

[marsh ferry]

@midnight tinsel I guess there is some costumes and stuff, is it possible to buy it from someone?

[left whale]

Well additional retainers after the 2nd cost money

[midnight tinsel]

yes from the website @marsh ferry

[patent spire]

oo i heard that some companies have better gear for certain classes, is this true?

[midnight tinsel]

no ?

you dont really use gear from companies

[patent spire]

alright thanks!

[midnight tinsel]

outside aestehtics

[patent citrus]

You guys reckon for zodiac weapon light farming, better to spam tam-tara or ifrit hard?

[twilit arch]

tbh at this point you can realistically do whatever ARR content you want for it, since most things die pretty fast

but that said, the main difference between tam tara and ifrit is loading times

if your loading times are super fast, do ifrit

if not, do tam tara

[patent citrus]

nice, i'll do ifrit hard ty ty*

[outer bramble]

Hey everyone what class would come nearest to the discpriest playstyle of wow?
Dealing dmg while shielding/supporting my group?

[midnight tinsel]

which iteration of discpriets ?

[simple pine]

is 23nov endwalker "release" release? or is 23nov the early access with just the classes, and 2 weeks later the real release?

[midnight tinsel]

there is no healer who heals through dealing damage

[outer bramble]

the latest one

[midnight tinsel]

then noone

[patent citrus]

should be scholar, but nothing's close to wow classes

[midnight tinsel]

scholar and astologian can shield

[outer bramble]

i also like dots

[patent citrus]

all healer has dots

[midnight tinsel]

every healer has 1 dot iirc

[twilit arch]

23 of november is official release. 19th is early access

[simple pine]

i think wow healers should go ast, other healers might feel a bit simple

[midnight tinsel]

were getting a new shield healer in endwalker

but we dont know anything more

[outer bramble]

ooooho

[midnight tinsel]

so yeah

[outer bramble]

i tried ast but ive heard its getting changed in endwalker

[midnight tinsel]

true

[simple pine]

it will become a regen healer instead of having the option to switch between shield/regen, but it's core mechanics with cards etc will likely stay the same

[midnight tinsel]

so yeah i guess your best bet is waiting for sage

maybe he has atonement mechanics who knows

or just try out all the healer and see what is to your liking

[outer bramble]

so if i want the shielding portion i go sch

[midnight tinsel]

yes scholar and later on sage as well

also you get summoner as well which is a dot dps spec

well partial dot spec

[outer bramble]

oh nice

guess i just try all healers out

thank you guys for answering!

[regal locust]

in terms of dps does Summoner come close to BLM and SAM?

[midnight tinsel]

define close

[simple pine]

in some fights smn gets pretty close yeah

[regal locust]

number 1 BLM number 2 Sam number 3? 4?

[lyric rapids]

is this worth to get? i am currently at lvl 51, just finished base ARR yesterday

its item level is 130

[gloomy mortar]

Yes

[regal locust]

where would you place Summoner if you nail the 110s rotation

[midnight tinsel]

https://www.fflogs.com/zone/statistics/38#metric=rdps&dataset=95&class=DPS

i mean you can scheck the data here

[regal locust]

i've seen that but it feels off from what i notice ingame

[midnight tinsel]

oh feelycraft ? xD

[umbral nest]

get the whole ironworks set

it will carry you through post arr

[simple pine]

i mean these are literal parses on the fight, it might feel off but the stats are the truth :p

[lyric rapids]

ok, thanks

[regal locust]

Also just the numbers i get when using a dps meter

[midnight tinsel]

your doign endgame raiding ?

with optimal rotation ?

as with in all games the biggest disparity in damage comes from your ability to play the class

not balancing

[leaden ginkgo]

nah its balancing

[regal locust]

Havent measured in raiding yet, but on dummy's summoner averages higher than a RDM and Dragoon all with optimal rotation and same-ish gear

[dreamy fjord]

What would those requirements be?

[leaden ginkgo]

and difficulty of optimising a class's damage

[umbral nest]

question regarding poetics, are there any other sets u can get with them?

[twilit arch]

Twinning, unlock is in crystarium and Akadaemia Anyder, unlock is in eulmore in the slums @dreamy fjord

[dreamy fjord]

Kaelwyrn mind if i pm you for a minute?

[simple pine]

please note that classes that have party buffs do less dmg in your dps meter when solo on a dummy. if you have afull party and you give them a buff, their damage gets added to your dmg in fflogs rdps catagory

[twilit arch]

sure

[simple pine]

so dragoon for example has a big party buff and a big buff for partner, so the dps looks lower than it is when on a dummy

[twilit arch]

also yeah dummy dps isn't exactly the best way to judge

[regal locust]

Okk then if you look at the characters, no party buffs. Just individually there beating something up with similar gear and optimal rotation

[plain python]

BLM's speed build on Resistance weapon is Sps=Cri>DH or Det?

[dawn cove]

after the 9 books for zodiac weapon, why cant i talk to jalzahn

[regal locust]

Like i no way will i switch from my summoner because its dps is lower then some classes

Just what FFlogs says feels way off from what i notice

[gloomy mortar]

Is there a way to see when was the last time someone on your friends list logged on? Or can you only see that if they’re in your FC?

[simple pine]

yes if you just look at individual dps on a dummy the classes that have no buffs (blm, sam) look much better than it is

[midnight tinsel]

@regal locust then log your dummy fights ?

and upload them

[regal locust]

i can't do optimal dragoon and monk rotations >~< xD

[midnight tinsel]

so your wondering why your summoner is higher then other classes you play worse ? xD

[simple pine]

but dont worry about it, the classes are very close in damage, and you are pretty much forced/heavily encouraged not to have double classes in a party. so there will always be a spot for each class

[regal locust]

no no i have fc mates that have optimal rotations and we put on the same ish gear

[midnight tinsel]

can you guarantee their rotation is optimal ?

[devout lichen]

how many fights does alexander have, I thought it only had a few quests but it has 12

[simple pine]

12 raids (can have multiple small bosses in one)

[warm snow]

Then learn them

[regal locust]

i better hope so, they've played their job for years

[regal locust]

reee

[midnight tinsel]

time usually doesnt matter much

you can play for ages and play wrong

[warm snow]

How dare I suggest self improvement so toxic

[warm snow]

I've seen lv80s running with a stack marker

Time means nothing

[regal locust]

also a bit off topic, i started leveling BLM. Is there some guide for BLM's positioning off leylines?

[regal locust]

i wasn't suggesting you were toxic though >.>

[warm snow]

Not really

[warm snow]

Sarcasm

[simple pine]

each fight has different leyline positions/timing, there is a guide for the savage raids usually on the balance with suggested timing/locations

[regal locust]

day 102 of why i suck with online sarcasm

[warm snow]

Hell if I you actually called me toxic I'd laugh even harder

[simple pine]

but for dungeons etc you just wing leylines

[plain python]

hello?

[warm snow]

Go to the balance if you want exact optimisation

Inb4 momo got banned from etro

[regal locust]

btw is it true summoner will be an entire new job again after we get the endwalker skills?

[faint flare]

It's being reworked to some extent

[simple pine]

we don't know, there is only speculation

[faint flare]

They told us it's being reworked to some extent

Cause it's at a design dead end

There's nothing new they can add to its current form

[potent musk]

Jesus christ

this game couldnt confuse me more

[warm snow]

So... Is that a question

[potent musk]

im taking pictures

wait a sec

[warm snow]

Ah, the gpose rabbit hole

[regal locust]

nooo i dont wanna lose bahamut

[patent spire]

which msq do i have to complete to unlock the lvl 30 job quests?

[twilit arch]

sylph management

[simple pine]

sylph management (lvl 20)

[regal locust]

okk theres like this one song in POTD, and in some dungeon which i forgot

[faint flare]

We'll probably keep the demis, but trances will probably change/go away

[warm snow]

It's part of the job quests so we're probably keeping it but it'll change somehow

[regal locust]

thats like really lofi minecraft ish tune

does anyone know the name of it?

[patent spire]

ive completed sylph management

[faint flare]

It will still be a "pet" job

[patent spire]

but i dont see the quest on the top left

only shows the choco one

[warm snow]

Dreadwyrm is kinda written into the smn job quests so it's not going away yet

!faq job

How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

[bright quartz]

what level do you get a mount?

[regal locust]

its at the gloom floors in potd

[warm snow]

Do you have any class quests in progress?

[faint flare]

Well change significantly

Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

[hoary storm]

I think the chocobo quest hides the job quest, but im not sure

the job quest is at the same npc u got the last one tho

[potent musk]

So when i put in the right credential for the account management system is says its the right thing (if you put in the wrong password it will says its wrong) but when i put in the same things for the normal square enix site and the ffxiv login client it says im wrong? Im just a little confused lol

[hoary storm]

if you're using steam it should be ur steam password iirc

[potent musk]

im not using steam

its ffxiv

[autumn drift]

On average, how long does it take to lvl an alt job from 30-70?

[patent spire]

yee it was hid by the choco, and the npc had it thank you!

[simple pine]

if you dont have dps queues about 10 hours?

[potent musk]

how do dps have 10 hour ques tho

tanks are abundant right now

and ive seen alot of healers

[autumn drift]

So spamming dungeons for 10 hours?

[potent musk]

but as a healer ive gotten alot of instant ques so id think healer are lacking

[simple pine]

yes if you have fast queues spamming dungeons is the fastest way to level, end your day with roulettes

[leaden ginkgo]

how can i see the difference between selene and eos?

[simple pine]

there is no difference

[leaden ginkgo]

its just cosmetic?

[hoary storm]

you look at them

[simple pine]

it used to do different things but they changed it to only be cosmetic

[leaden ginkgo]

wow

[simple pine]

i think people just figured out which one was the best one and only used that, so now at least you have a choice

[faint flare]

Eos was the only useful fairy

Selene was basically useless outside of opener for Fey wind

Aoe esuna is too niche

Vs whispering dawn

[granite pike]

what are the best jobs for retainers?

[simple pine]

for combat it doesnt matter which one, but if you pick the same as your own class it is easier to gear

its suggested to do one combat for getting skins and other annoying mob materials if you want to do crafting, and the other one of the gathering jobs for materials + minions

[granite pike]

can i change my retainers jobs?

[twilit arch]

yes

[simple pine]

yes but they will start at level 1, and if you then later change them back they will also be 1

[granite pike]

are they a big market advantage?

[simple pine]

not really (you obviously need at least 1 to access market)

[granite pike]

yea

[slate spindle]

This doesn't mean that they won't make changes to underlying actions that deviate from the original quest premise. In fact this was very much an issue with SCH and MCH where SCH had no leeches for one of their quests and MCH couldn't Hot Shot anymore. They did fix it in the retrospect, but it's proof that quests don't necessarily mean something is untouchable

Also minimal has been said about the SMN situation other than what Vinyl's said, and the egi glamour matter. No real reason to speculate when we'll find out soon enough with the actions trailer and media tour information

[warm snow]

Do we have a date for that yet?

[faint flare]

After September

[slate spindle]

We're hoping it's mentioned at the next live letter

Otherwise no confirmed date thus far

[faint flare]

They briefly mentioned at fanfest that after September media tours could be possible

Like briefest of mentions

With the data centre travel testing

[warm snow]

Well probably get some info in the upcoming 14 hour stream

[frigid widget]

Hi! so i havent played since like the end of march and i was wondering if it is worth to start playing again and start to level up new jobs? my only maxed out job is black mage

[slate spindle]

Haven't heard anything about it yet, but we're prepared for when it is to happen

[halcyon tangle]

hey everyone, i am currently playing the free trial on windows (not steam). however, I went ahead and bought shadow bringers collectors edition on steam last night. once I get to level 60 on the free trial, I am able to swap over to the steam version and begin a monthly sub, right?

[slate spindle]

Worth catching up towards Endwalker if you plan on playing for 6.0

[upper flame]

is there a bot command to check prices of stuff in a server?

i dont have access to the market board but is genuinely just curious

[warm snow]

Yes, you can change over whenever through mogstation by inputting the starter addition code on mogstation

[shut panther]

With Tokyo back in soe I can't imagine a media tour is on the cards

[warm snow]

Digital media tour probably

Let's be realistic

[halcyon tangle]

oh ok perfect, so that is why the steam version spits out those codes when I launch?

[warm snow]

Pretty much

[simple pine]

universalis.app is a site where you can check prices

[warm snow]

You can always right click > manage > CD keys to find them again

[halcyon tangle]

ok awesome, tysm. it was getting very confusing last night lol. i wasnt sure if this was possible or not, glad to hear it is! 🙂

[twilit arch]

can use the !market command

[warm snow]

But not here

[leaden ginkgo]

is bozjan coin only for armor ?

[twilit arch]

but it pulls from universalis which isn't always up to date

[warm snow]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

where i can the weapons

[twilit arch]

as it gets its info from users with the ACT plugin

[leaden ginkgo]

i495

[shut panther]

Theres no 495 weapons

[warm snow]

There are no i495 weapons

[leaden ginkgo]

;-;

[shut panther]

The relic weapons, which are from bozja, go 485-500-515-535

[leaden ginkgo]

i want cheap weapon to buy like bozjan coin

where

[shut panther]

Closest you'd get is cryptlurker, from Eden normal

That or you buy exarchic from market

[warm snow]

And it'll still cost 1k revelations

There's no cheap at endgame if you want a good weapon

[leaden ginkgo]

dang it

[shut panther]

Exarchic is probably the play, tbh

[warm snow]

Since 485 is the cheapest and is still pretty weak

You'll need 500 average ilevel for Endwalker btw

[shut panther]

Starts at 510, ez to upgrade to 520

[leaden ginkgo]

i can do every content with 510 ?

[warm snow]

For the first dungeon

[faint flare]

Yes

[warm snow]

500 is the minimum you want for Endwalker, ofc more is better

[leaden ginkgo]

i was curious is it a huge boost if you goes from 510 to 520

[warm snow]

10 item levels is 10 item lebels

[shut panther]

You'll have a bit of trouble finding groups to do high end content if you're only 510

[warm snow]

Cap is 530 btw

[patent citrus]

well it definitely helps..

[shut panther]

Lots of groups set 520 minimums these days

[leaden ginkgo]

for now tbh im not grinding high level gears
my goal for now to level every fighting job so i can choose what ever i love

[worn flume]

it's a big increase to your main stats so yes

[upper flame]

@simple pine @twilit arch thank you! \qwq\

[shut panther]

Anything over 500 is basically academic if you're not doing high end content tbh

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks for the help

i havent touch end content since i finished shb

[warm snow]

High end content includes extremes on pf as they'll likely have 520 mins as well

[glad robin]

So when you switch classes for the first time, do they just give you a weapon and armor to start with? Or do you have to go farm for everything again?

[warm snow]

Just weapon for arr jobs

[glad robin]

So for dlc ones you get both?

[warm snow]

Later expansion jobs give a starting set and weapon

Stormblood and beyond even look decent

[shut panther]

You're only ever given left side, iirc

[simple pine]

also many classes share armor (all tanks share, dps share in sets of 2 usually) etc

[warm snow]

And are basically artifact sets

[shut panther]

Right side you need to bring?

[warm snow]

No belt either

But belts are going bye bye in a few months

[glad robin]

So what do you do like after switching and starting over basically? Do they put you at lvl 1 or something? Cuz I’m gonna switch to an expansion class most likely

[warm snow]

Depends on the job

[glad robin]

Would I have to do like dungeons basically to catch up?

[faint flare]

Expansion jobs start higher

And yes

[warm snow]

[glad robin]

Ohh okay

[shut panther]

Expansion classes start at 30/50/60/(70)

And yes, you grind dungeons or PotD basically

[warm snow]

You won't be able to just starts as sage for Endwalker for example

Since it starts at 70 and Endwalker will start from 80

[opal swan]

How much does the glamour cost i forgot

[glad robin]

So im planning to go MCH maybe or RDM

[warm snow]

Depends

[glad robin]

So for MCH I go ishtar I guess

[warm snow]

You'll need stormblood for rdm, if you're on trial you don't get.

Idk where you are, just warning

[glad robin]

I’m gonna be subbing soon, I’m at the end of the ARR story I think

[warm snow]

Define end

[autumn drift]

Bought an item via mogstation but the moogle doesnt have anything

[glad robin]

Like last or second to last mission for base story

[warm snow]

Cuz after you finish arr story you'll have all the patch content

[autumn drift]

Can anyone help me with this?

[warm snow]

Wait a bit it's not instand

[opal swan]

Wait a bit usually takes time

[barren granite]

takes a few mn sometimes

[shut panther]

Right character?

[warm snow]

Patience is a virtue dude

[autumn drift]

Yeah only got 1

[shut panther]

Lots to do after you finish the main story yet before you enter hw

[autumn drift]

Mb,Thought it was instant, thanks everyone

[warm snow]

Relog, go do a dungeon or something

It shouldn't take too long

[barren granite]

sometimes it is, most times it takes like 10 mn or so

[warm snow]

Unless there's a massive congestion like when Endwalker preorders opened

[autumn drift]

Yeah just got it

[opal swan]

Post ARR quests that lead to Heavensward are painful so brace yourself it’s very long lol

[barren granite]

grats

[warm snow]

The 7th umbral slog

[glad robin]

Lmao rip

So i can’t unlock MCH till I’ve reached heavens?

[warm snow]

They improve towards the end but the ff14 team were still finding their feet

[warm snow]

Pretty much

[barren granite]

ya but the ending of it, is a great payoff .. i thought it was awesome

[warm snow]

Unless you buy a job boost, which I'd advise against for multiple reasons

[opal swan]

Yeah

[glad robin]

Is it because it’s hard or just very long in length?

[opal swan]

Very long

[glad robin]

Gotcha

[autumn drift]

MCH main here, the job is pretty worth it

[opal swan]

Kinda boring, go there and talk with someone etc etc

[barren granite]

tedious at points

[warm snow]

Long and story wise a bit rough

[glad robin]

Bet

Id rather take walking and talking than just fighting and dying lmao

But that’s just me usually

[warm snow]

It's not as bad as it once was but it's still 80 main story quests long iirc

Or was it 100

[opal swan]

Wasn’t it 120

Let me check

[glad robin]

80 including ARR?

[warm snow]

No

After arr

[glad robin]

Oh my

[warm snow]

They're not too long but it unfortunately does add up

Push through and it's well worth it

The final quest is fantastic

[glad robin]

Yeah that’s what I’m trying to do

[warm snow]

And it really starts picking up around 2.4

[glad robin]

Believe it or not I was a bit annoyed with some of the fights I’ve had with other mobs in ARR itself

[warm snow]

So a little past the halfway point

Arr and hw are unfortunately power crept to hell

So you won't find a lot of difficulty in them

[glad robin]

Ah okay

[warm snow]

Hw less so and it has the great story to fall back on

[glad robin]

I just mainly wanted to get the class first then I can proceed to the other stuff but unfortunately I gotta go through post ARR now heh

[warm snow]

🇫

It's the ff14 cycle, we get an expansion once every 2 years and patches every 2-3 months in between expansions

[opal swan]

You’ll get there just power through it

[shut panther]

"when can I play DRK finally" is a pretty common question xd

[warm snow]

Each patch continuing the story of that expansion /leading into the next expansion

[opal swan]

Since endwalker is the last expansion of this story i wonder what the patches are gonna be like

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

[warm snow]

#recruitment-chaos

[warm snow]

only the prisms are consumed when you cast it

[crisp field]

oh so not only you have to buy the skin from the cash shop you also need ingame currency to apply them

[warm snow]

only if you buy glamour gear from the cash shop

[fallen topaz]

Best way to glamour is to put the item in your glamour dresser, costs one prism to put it in then you can glamour as much as you want

[warm snow]

a lot of shop gear can also go into the armoire which doesn't consume prisms

[marsh ferry]

Is it me or game download is just slow?

[glad robin]

Also, for cosmetics and outfits, can you get them from the market board thing?

[warm snow]

yes

[glad robin]

Or do we only find them from moogstation or the dungeons?

[warm snow]

or craft yourself

or farm from dungeons

D) All of the above

[glad robin]

I hear it is expensive usually on MB?

[warm snow]

depends on the gear piece

[shut panther]

Different items have different sources.

[opal swan]

Not all of them though, some are not tradable

[steady gate]

People. How do I remove quests I don't want to do anymore from the log?

[worn flume]

abandon them

[opal swan]

Click on them and then abandon

[worn flume]

you can pick them back up later

[glad robin]

Thanks

[fallen topaz]

Cancel them (you can't cancel "leves of..." though it seems)

[shut panther]

For the most part, the newest cosmetics cost a fortune, older than current patch tend to be far more reasonable.

[steady gate]

Some of them don't have the abandon button though

[warm snow]

still making bank on casual coffers lol

[steady gate]

Some levequests

[glad robin]

I just wanted some cool clothing that didn’t have to cost a lot or seem to hard to obtain

[faint flare]

Yoy need to fail the leve first

[glad robin]

Like fashionable at least

[faint flare]

To abandon it

[shut panther]

I don't know why anyone likes the casual top.. makes your neck 3 meters long

[warm snow]

once you finish your lv50 job quest you'll get a set of what's called artifact armor, specific to your job, makes a great first glamour

[abstract parcel]

is there something similar to the flyer shaffrom barding for a head piece?

[glad robin]

Ohh gotcha

[fallen topaz]

Check marketboard, gold saucer, vendors. You can try on gear without buying it

[crisp field]

Is there any reason I shouldnt use sprint on cd

[warm snow]

In combat, yes you might need it

In dungeons, you need to stay with the group and healers are casters

Solo, not really

[opal swan]

Compared to other games ff14 isn’t that grindy, so even if you found something you liked you wouldn’t have to work that hard for it imo

[open rivet]

anyone got anything for this?
we've been grinding arr primals now for the 500seals per run but it feels terribly slow.

[lyric rapids]

is there a good resource where i can check dungeon mechanics or boss mechanics before i be stupid idiot and die?

[simple pine]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Sastasha wiki usually outlines the main mechanics

[opal swan]

MTQcapture on YouTube

[patent citrus]

yeah for story stuffs, consolegames and gamerescape is nice hehe

[glad robin]

That’s true. I checked online the amount of quests needed post ARR and I was still shocked 😂

[patent citrus]

like 2 mins read

[glad robin]

It’s a good 80-100 minimum if not more

[open rivet]

depends on where you checked,
they cut it down in one of the last patches

[glad robin]

I was on consolegames website

The wiki

[heavy wadi]

It’s about 80 quests now, iirc

[crisp field]

do all class starting armor look the same? I made a puglist and so far I feel like everyone else is in fully clothed armor or robes and I am running around in a night lingerie

[glossy flare]

there is no starting armor for each class

[warm snow]

You don't get job specific gear til 50

[glossy flare]

only starting armor for each race

[faint flare]

Only expansion jobs get starting armour

[midnight tinsel]

and role specific on 15 through the novice hall

hey when can i help a friend sign a fc petition with my alt?

is there a level cap or sth

[marsh ferry]

Is race I choose matter and can I change my class when I want? Do you lose something when you changing class?

[simple pine]

you need to collect the aether points using your compass that you got in early HW https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Aether_Currents

[faint flare]

No, yes and no

[simple pine]

you dont get flying for just doing msq anymore

[marsh ferry]

Thanks 🙂

[brittle valve]

@simple pine so when i collect all the aether i can fly?

[simple pine]

yes in the specific area you collect the aether you can fly, need to do it for each map

[open rivet]

well, except for asyz lah.

[simple pine]

yeah i meant from arr onwards

[open rivet]

asyz lah is HW xD

[crisp field]

are there further character customization later on in game or is the character making the only one? It felt lacking (I was looking for earpiercing etc)

[faint flare]

You can unlock more hair

[simple pine]

earrings are actual gear in this game with its own appearance

[autumn drift]

As a first time tank, how do you deal with so many moves
Does the keyboard even have enough space

[faint flare]

Yew

[open rivet]

Tanks, many moves?

[faint flare]

You have literally 10 hotbars

[topaz nymph]

if i have original realm reborn copy and i apply the green man gaming complete pack to it, would I still claim the free month or will i just get the games. Thanks!

[simple pine]

you can use shift+key and ctrl+keys to get more skills on the same keys

[faint flare]

And 30 or so skills to key bind

[faint flare]

If you already own the game you can't use the complete edition

[copper plaza]

Hi, I have a question. If I buy complete edition now, do I get Endwalker as well?

[autumn drift]

Seeing the tutorials and all, there are alot of moves, atleast compared to a MCH

[faint flare]

No

[open rivet]

no, complete edition only includes up to ShB.

[copper plaza]

Is there a way to pre-order Endwalker and buy base game in the same package?

[copper plaza]

But it will include Endwalker when it releases?

[dusky star]

You can change the hotkeys for all your hot bars as well

[topaz nymph]

is there anything i can do sans making a new account?

[simple pine]

if you are overwhelmed you could play marauder/gladiator to start at a lower lvl with less skills, the tanking skills are shared/similair between all tanks

[open rivet]

probably once it gets updated.

[faint flare]

No there will be a new complete edition

[copper plaza]

Yeah, with the same price right?

[faint flare]

No. If you already own the game then you just need shadowbringers + a sub for everything

[topaz nymph]

thanks

[copper plaza]

I guess I'll buy base game now, play, wait until Endwalker releases and buy that then

[marsh ferry]

You mean it's not worth to buy game now?

I want to start playing

So i could be in the same situation

[simple pine]

worth is subjective, if you want to play now you can play now, but you will have to buy endwalker later

[faint flare]

It's only if you want to save money

[open rivet]

play the free trial instead of paying for base game,
it's the same content but base game you gotta pay your sub anyway.

[marsh ferry]

When new expansion is coming? @simple pine @faint flare

[copper plaza]

But you can't add friends or join party in free trial mod right?

[near hound]

November

[simple pine]

23november

[faint flare]

Early access on the 19th November

[copper plaza]

Wanted to play with friends :c

[simple pine]

you can join party, but not make a party

[marsh ferry]

That's pretty a lot of time

[simple pine]

if one of the friends has the game they can always form the party

[copper plaza]

Ok, guess I'll buy base game and have all my friends get free trial

[open rivet]

paying the sub each month for just base game costs you more than buying complete & enjoying the full game as is

[near hound]

Please just buy complete edition tbh

[copper plaza]

Oh right, I would have to pay sub fees as soon as I buy base game

That's kinda weird

[open rivet]

it's not weird

[crisp field]

I think steam had sales on both the base game and shadowbringer

[mental oracle]

How do you change how many people you can see on screen?

[copper plaza]

You either play for free, or buy and pay each month

[faint flare]

That's how sub games work

It's only free for triaks

[open rivet]

it's a trial, not f2p

[heavy wadi]

^^

[crisp field]

is there any discount for buying a longer sub at once

[near hound]

He's saying it's weird he'd have to pay a sub for starter edition when it's pretty much the same as the trial

[barren granite]

The Standard subscription costs $14.99 per month and offers discounts if you buy months in bulk

[faint flare]

All of them

[barren granite]

youd miss ALOT of cool story

[warm snow]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

Which world should I pick?

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)
  ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

[crisp field]

nah I dont plan to rush just wanted to play like a single player rpg so I am up to the story when endwalker comes

depends on lag I dont really plan to raid until the OCE data centre is out

[upper yew]

ahh

well yea i mean its not a puglist job

[simple pine]

yeah only summoner and scholar level together since it's a shared starting job

[mental oracle]

ty

[leaden ginkgo]

So I'm wondering if I get any class to level 50 does that mean I can make every single other class?

[faint flare]

No

You need 60

For dancer and gunbreaker

[open rivet]

You'll need level 60 to unlock every job

[simple pine]

no you need one class at 60 to unlock dancer and gunbreaker

[leaden ginkgo]

oh ok

[faint flare]

And 70 for endwalker jobs

[warm snow]

And eventually 70 for Endwalker jobs

[upper yew]

and reaper gonna be from what lvl ?

[leaden ginkgo]

So I can literally just make every class same day?

[faint flare]

70

[warm snow]

70

[upper yew]

tnx

[warm snow]

Probably not, getting from 1 to 70 in one day is unrralistic

[tranquil wolf]

just question, how many people can play in total on a server?

[leaden ginkgo]

@warm snowwell once I get a level 70

[warm snow]

Also you need heavensward for its jobs so getting to that in one day is also unrealistic

[simple pine]

storyskip + level boost ez lvl 70 in one day

[upper yew]

thats just cheating

imo this story up to lvl 50 hasnt been anything special i hope higher story gonna be better

xD

[warm snow]

It is, but unfortunately the 50 patch content is rough

[crisp field]

does level boost only work for 1 class or all class

[warm snow]

One job

[marsh ferry]

70 is max lvl right?

[warm snow]

80

Soon 90

You can only buy a boost to 70 tjo

[barren granite]

EW is 90 ? not 85 ?

[warm snow]

It's always 10 more levels

[halcyon tangle]

anyone know when you get the chance to join a GC

[barren granite]

ok

[warm snow]

This was also confirmed

[faint flare]

Why would it be 85

[warm snow]

20 msq

[barren granite]

from other games they would do 5 lvl per xpac .

guess imjusdt used to 5 lvl increaes

[open rivet]

They better increase max-level to 99 someday

or 100 to make it a flat number

[barren granite]

128

[warm snow]

They said they have plans for the next decade

[barren granite]

SWEEEEET !!

[warm snow]

So that's 140 ish

[open rivet]

they better,
cuz I'll still be playing for the next 9 years for those damn leve achievements...

[warm snow]

Endwalker is the end of the story that's been going since 1.0

[barren granite]

1st ive heard of it, but thats awesome !

[warm snow]

Starting with the Endwalker patches it'll be the start of a new story

[cedar compass]

What is the name of the weekly quest that gives bozjan gold coins?

[crisp field]

I am playing on a new server with the exp buff I should be able to just do MSQ and the blue class quest and not fall behind right

[faint flare]

One man's relic

[crisp field]

I can pretty much ignore the other fetch quest?

[warm snow]

Easily

[barren granite]

Ahh, so they moving it into a whole new 'realm' so to speak.

[faint flare]

New story

Same world

[barren granite]

cool

[faint flare]

Still alooooooooooooot of places to go

[warm snow]

It's a realm reborn because 1.0 was such a disaster they nuked the world and rebuilt from scratch

Both in game and in real life

[faint flare]

Like tiamants homeland

[barren granite]

heh, funny

[warm snow]

I'm serious

[idle void]

as a tank should I try and face mobs away from the group so melees can hit from behind or does that not matter in FF14?

[granite pike]

why retainers name unavailable?

[warm snow]

Someone else has it

[granite pike]

😢

[warm snow]

Yes

[faint flare]

Yes melees have positionals. Face it away. And so you don't cleave people

[granite pike]

I wanted Savannah

[warm snow]

Keep the ass and sides exposed

[barren granite]

ah really? didnt know it was so bad heh

[idle void]

ait ty

[faint flare]

Go watch the noclip documentary

For 1.0

[warm snow]

There were plant pots with the same polygon count as a player character, the opening cutscenes could lag on most computers

[open rivet]

try Savannah' or S'avannah.

[granite pike]

Ohhhh nice idea

[barren granite]

ok ill watch that.

[barren granite]

hmm wonder how that got thru Q/A

[lyric rapids]

so are there around 80 quests post ARR until i get to HW?

[open rivet]

yep

[warm snow]

Deadlines, crunch culture. Bad management etc. etc. Bad engine choice

[lyric rapids]

oof, thats a long long way

[open rivet]

it's mostly "go there" quests tho & you can fly now, so it's quite fast

[warm snow]

You'll also have to suffer peak arr alphinaud

But don't worry that'll pay off

[barren granite]

ya unfortunately it happens in a LOT of games 😦

[lyric rapids]

thats a lot of reading and shit but i am skipping i guess

[barren granite]

Glad they fixed it here.

[warm snow]

Falling into #general-discussion territory but as vinyl said feel free to look up the YouTube documentary

[open rivet]

I'd advise against skipping cuz the storyi is pretty good.
& post ARR sets up HW so you'll miss out on the plot there as well

[barren granite]

ok thanks

[barren granite]

I 2nd this !!

[simple pine]

skipping is fine i did it (and later watched a recap) and still really enjoyed the later stories. play how you want

[crisp field]

how easy is it to make gil? I am doing early quest and the reward is gear thats like 1 armor or def better
should I just pick gil everytime

[open rivet]

it'll get easier the farther you are in the game.

[faint flare]

Always gear if it's better

[oak gyro]

Hello people! Im experiencing my first playthroguh with a gladiator. I want to know that how duty finder works actually. Is it similar to WOW or a bit different? Like when i join a dungeon group which is far away from me can they summon me or do i need to walk etc. Thanks for the help in advance!!!

[faint flare]

You'll be put into the dungeon

[simple pine]

you will instantly enter the dungeon upon accepting

[granite pike]

its a cat breed

[crisp field]

even if its just +1 armor?

[open rivet]

you can join a dungeon via Duty Finder from anywhere.

[faint flare]

Yes

[oak gyro]

oh thats nice

[granite pike]

even your both suggestion is taken

xddd

[midnight tinsel]

its the same but only 4 people @oak gyro and with need greed system like in mop

[faint flare]

+1 is good amount

[granite pike]

too popular maybe

[oak gyro]

and after we complete the dungeon will i be the exact same place where i entered as well?

[lyric rapids]

i skipped most of mid ARR, too much reading and i am not that fan of reading honestly especially when they speak so slow with long sentences

[faint flare]

Yes

[crisp field]

ok always gear upgrade over gil

[oak gyro]

thanks for the info guys cheers!!!

[faint flare]

Unless a cutscene forces you to a specific point

[midnight tinsel]

@oak gyro yes except for some msq related duties

[oak gyro]

yeah so like im glad at desert zone when i join the 15 dungeon which is at forest zone ill be back where i was questing actually then

so i can experience the early dungeons

nice nice

[faint flare]

The story takes you to majority of dungeons

[oak gyro]

im a bit ahead at xp due to star server xp bonus so i might wait a bit then

[upper yew]

ahh you keep your main class skills even if you change job (from monk to samurai)

[faint flare]

No

Only role skills

Nothing else

[upper yew]

i mean i have heals and buffs from puglist

but no attack skills

[faint flare]

Only role skills

Since they're the same role

[simple pine]

those are "role actions" they are shared between role, such as melee dps, tank, healer, ranged dps

[faint flare]

All physical melees have the same role skills

[stark hedge]

in the anima questline is it viable to just buy the demimateria for the crystal sands?

[upper yew]

🤔 actualy i havent even saw that role tab until now

xD

[icy quiver]

Hi, Is there any setting to reduce flashes from bosses and so?

[crisp field]

when I talk I dont see a chat bubble above me

is that something I can toggle

[faint flare]

No

Those don't exist

[leaden ginkgo]

hey, how regularly do events come back ? I saw one with Lightning from FFXIII and I'm dying to get her items

[faint flare]

Those are on mogstation now

[leaden ginkgo]

damn

[faint flare]

Once the items are on mogstation they won't come back

[plucky plank]

Hey. If i buy a physical copy of the complete Edition do i need the disc to play the game? Ps4/Ps5 it is.

[dawn cove]

What is the best way to farm light,for zodiac weapon?

[barren granite]

what are the items ?

[twilit arch]

at this point (and also assuming you're lvl 80) can basically farm whatever ARR content you want, every thing dies fairly quickly. That said, tam tara and ifrit normal are common choices as they're extremely quick. Tam Tara if you have meh loading times, ifrit normal if you have very good loading times @dawn cove

[oak ether]

hi guys, does anyone know what whm weapon is this?

[dawn cove]

thanks

[twilit arch]

Weathered Tishtrya, lvl 80 AF weapon @oak ether

[oak ether]

ahhh.... cool thanks 😄

[idle void]

is there a way to try on several pieces at once?

[faint flare]

Press the save outfit button

In the try on window

!faq interrupt

[zinc orbit]

Interrupt

[faint flare]

It works on those pulsating cast bars

It ranges from "meh damage" to "interrupt this shit or die"

[tranquil wolf]

ah i tried it before

it didnt seem to work well

only stun did well

[faint flare]

PULSATING cast bar

[queen gulch]

is your first dungeon different depending on where you spawn first?

[faint flare]

It's visibly different

[faint flare]

No

[tranquil wolf]

how can i tell is pulsating?

[queen gulch]

ok good

[faint flare]

It's faster the stories converged

[faint flare]

Because it's visibly pulsating

It'd quite obvious

[pulsar escarp]

it’s red

[tranquil wolf]

just that, not like orange circle

[pulsar escarp]

and slightly flashing

it’s often slow enough for you to react

[junior walrus]

Is there a way to select multiple items in the gridania seals exchange? Clicking only one thing at a time is gonna take too long and my armoury chest is filled with crap

[faint flare]

The cast bar itself pulsates and flashes

[tranquil wolf]

okay just the bar

not like what they going to do

[faint flare]

The cast bar is telling you what they're doing

Especially in later content

The cast bar is vital

[tranquil wolf]

what i meant is, like you know they have this shape animation what they about to do, like the range of attack

[faint flare]

To pay attention to

The telegraph

[tranquil wolf]

is that not the same as bar

[faint flare]

It's tied to the cast bar

[tranquil wolf]

right okay

ill give it a try again

[broken cairn]

@junior walrus you can do the ultimate gamer move of moving the position of the delivery window so you dont have to move your mouse and can just click

[tranquil wolf]

maybe my timing is bad or lag

[faint flare]

Again the cast bar is visibly different and pulsating

It's obvious when you see it

[junior walrus]

so u mean there's no way to select multiple items

[faint flare]

Go aggro a sprite

And you'll see it

[junior walrus]

i guess that'll do

[tranquil wolf]

ah i see

okay i just didn't notice if it "exucated" properly

[barren granite]

are there any intyerrupts that a Drgn can use ?

[faint flare]

No

Only tanks and physical range have interrupts

[broken cairn]

You can slap it out quickly enough, but yeah, no multi selecr

[junior walrus]

woo

i did as you told me

and accidentally exchanged a unique items

[broken cairn]

I did that too once

[tranquil wolf]

is there way to make the cast bar show below their health bar rather on the top

[broken cairn]

You can make sure to keep items safe by clicking the tab that is for Filter and saying "exclude gear set items"

[faint flare]

You can split it

[junior walrus]

yes, go to you HUD layout

[faint flare]

In the hud editor

[tranquil wolf]

okay

[tranquil wolf]

focus target bar?

[junior walrus]

yes

[faint flare]

No

Target bar

Focus target is something separate

[tranquil wolf]

it will take with its health

[tulip zephyr]

i'm nearing heavensward now, where should i spend this?

[junior walrus]

right click the your hp bar and set it to segmented

[faint flare]

Buy ironworks gear if yoy haven't in mor Dhona/main cities sundry splendors

[junior walrus]

^

[tulip zephyr]

done that already

i'm interested where next
