If you can't access gangos from the domain enclave teleport network, go to Kugane and look for a
near the markets or airship
Just dont know what to do or where to go for the weapon, I dont have any of the blue quests open in Kugane
Then go to the doman enclave and use the aethernet to go to gangos
Check your teleport menu. It should be under yanxia/far east locales
how much rested exp can build up?
3 lvls
what's the reason for the map allowance reset time to be 18 hours instead of 16 hours?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i see Doma castle but there are no blue quests there
What do the red pins on the map mean?
Use your teleport menu.
Area of interest
does anyone know why my free time remaining increased by about 10 days
You can't navigate there via the map
how do you get to that, the aetheryte ?
The teleport menu.
if the map time reset allowance time was 16 hours, i can do one map in the morning and then one right before going to bed.
is this done on purpose so people can only do maps once a day?
Sorry literally never used that or knew it was there 😭
teleport icon you can put on hotbar
The blue swooshy button on your hotbar by default which you probably deleted after level 10 or so
It's under general actions and traits
!action teleport
Found doman enclave what I am looking for ?
Go to the doman enclave, use the aetheryte > aethernet > gangos, if you have it
Otherwise look for the airship person on the docks
yeah I dunno, thank you. I must be dumb
Trying and this is a bit overwhelming
I dont know what I've missed
are there bathroom tiles for floor and walls?
After Edens gate Sepulture where can I continue to the next Eden raids?
How do i get the collectable version of Harcots?
nvm I havent...
ahm raeng I assume
Yes
Once you turn in the quest, it's the same NPC in mord souq
.
What's the item?
Harcot
Why won't it let me access my FC during the free login campaign?
I last logged in late May, I should still be in it
I can collect normal Harcots but not the collectable version :/
harcot isnt a collectable
You don't.
That’s old
Harcot is an item you could've gotten as a collectible pre 5.3 rework
thank you
gamerescape hasn't removed the old collectables
the new collectables are called "rarefied"
Is there a way i can buy something like house for myself ?
i want to sit on place to do stuff
alone
Housing (Ultimate)
You can buy an apartment for 800k gil once you achieve second lieutenant in your grand company
Can I get Menphina's Earring for all my characters if I pre-order endwalker?
huh ?
Yes
500k
oop, my badb
whats the diffrent between apartment and house
It also doesn't take up your one house per server slot, so you can also buy a house later if you desired
what do people generally spend gil on at max level?
House has outdoors and multiple floors, apartment is just a single room
At what point in the MSQ is it safe to watch the endwalker trailer?
Anything, really. The main use is to skip grinds.
a single room for 500k
After 5.3, but if you want to be extra safe not until 5.5
ty.
Warrior's Infuriate puts charge into the Beast Gauge right? It doesnt increase the capacity?
yes, no
ty. the word "increase" was giving me doubts lol
if youre in an aoe before the indicator disappears youll get hit right? can you walk back in as soon as the indicator is gone?
may i ask if i play the free trial and then pre order the next expansion. how does that work?
Is there a way to sit in a specific pose? I have the kneel pose set for /sit, but it takes a few seconds for the pose to change after the initial sit down
no, because the animation doesn't exist
It doesn't. You'll need to order starter to redeem the preorder code, minimum
Can I redeem the Endwalker collectors edition code right now? I redeemed the pre order bonus but the collectors edition code keeps saying "invalid code"
no
Yes
Oh okay thanks for answering

ty
so i play the free trial, and then use the expansion code when it come out?
No, you need starter.
what does "light party" mean?
ah starter edition + the expansion?
yes
2 to 7 player party, I believe
Or it might be 4-7
It's main point is to distinguish between the amount of LB you can build up
4 gets 1, 8 gets 2
light party is 4 min
is there any different from playing through steam and square enix?
no
besides steam wallet being an option
for Mogstation and FFXIV Online store payments
steam locks you into buying thru steam for any and all future expansions
heard the buying process through se site is a hassle?
so i am lvl48.5 and my next MSQ doesn't unlock til 49. What's a quick way to get 1 level (did level roulette already)
Unlock Aurum Vale
do aurum vale or palace of the dead
wut
easy enough
For what it's worth I find it's significantly less hassle on steam since you don't have to hunt around for the code and then look for where to redeem the code on mog
then run it?
the only time you have to enter codes is for preorder access and bonus
Yes
if you buy thru steam, you are locked into steam
meaning that if there's a sale on SE store for expansions, you can't make use of it
because the codes are not compatible with a steam acct.
as a dps job gonna take forever to find a queue
If you're already planning on buying day one though that point is moot
It's in leveling roulette you'll be fiiiine
i wanna start playing, so trying to see what the best
ah that make sense
Looking to play again but haven’t played in years. I can’t log into my account because it’s asking me for a one time password? And I can’t setup a one time password on my phone because it’s asking me for a registration password that I have to get from my account page (which I can’t get to without a one time password.). It’s an endless loop.
OTP is optional and if you don't have one skip
avg wait: 11 mins ;x
Besides the fact you have to buy a code for your region, no
but im queued
you have to buy for the appropriate region for your mogstation account
All NA, EU, and JP accounts can play on all global regions
So just buy for your Mogstation account region
(there's region lock for the South Korea and Chinese versions but those are behind a few patches anyways)
You can buy direct on Mogstation yes
It’s not optional. It’s making me put in a one time password to access my account
It is.
you don't have to
thanks for clarifying
Unless you're using the website in which case uh
If you uninstalled the OTP app you're out of luck
how many days does starter account give forplaytime?
haha first death
you have to contact support if you didn't save your emergency removal password
30 free play days
tank pulled whole room and i died
What a crock of shit. Easier option : don’t play lol
It was made quite clear when applying 2fa to your account to save the password for situations like this
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Dude I played in like 2016 and have had like 3 phones since then. If you access your email that should be enough
why are you yelling at us?
We can't do anything from here.
If you keep your things though you might have the OTP physical token somewhere
That should still work.
I’ve never had one. And I had never installed the app until today. So I’m not sure how it even got setup for this tbh
Your best option is to contact support then
that's sus...
There isnt anything else you can do
*we can do here
Your account could have been hacked. It's possible, and some account thieves have been known to attach authenticators to keep you out. Bizarre I know, but it's happened
Is this really okay? 👀 💦
The game will literally lock you from finishing the banquet quest until you do crystal tower so
need to finish all these
Meaning it prevents you from moving on to banquet part?
yes
Ah kk good
you are literally blocked from accepting the quest until you complete the CT raid series
Kk. Actually I let him be and see what happens of his reaction 
I would say, “SEE??? I TOLD YOU THAT BLUE QUEST IS IMPORTANT”
You can lead a horse to water ect.
are all these lvl 50 quests before hw just gear gathering MSQs
Which ones
MSQs
No, they're all important for the story
im like 2.2 patch msq now its just running aruond and getting blue gear
Mostly. They trimmed out like, 99% of the filler.
story wise its not rly that special
You mean
these and not
these right
When do I get access to Mnaago's deliveries?
ofc
Yeah no the quest rewards are to make it less of a grind to gear for new players
As the 50 raid tier is considered savage difficulty
is there any advantage buying complete edition outta the game?
An opinion question: Is skipping most or all of the content blue quests (besides unlocking new classes/jobs, MSQ requirements) is wrong way of playing the game for a new player?
You get access to Hrothgar and Viera races out of the gate and "early" access to the expansion jobs
Not really. A lot of the 50 quests are just dungeon unlocks which do have a little story, but it's just "remixed" versions of existing dungeons.
Specifically, you can access Red Mage and Samurai as soon as you hit 50
Only Heavensward jobs are locked behind the MSQ
ah ok
Is it possible to make Chocobo saddlebags bigger?
Yes, but that's a companion app thing, I believe
Kk ty!
only by paying for the premium subscription of the FFXIV companion app, which doubles the space of the saddlebag.
which is $5 a month
it also gives an extra retainer and various in-app benefits
CoolTy
should i focus on main quests or do side quests also? i signed up on preferred server
does anyone have a map to grand company im lima?
I gave you directions.
Use the aetheryte system to go to the aftcastle mini-aetheryte and go east
hey yall , how the hell do u get master tomes(1 & 2) when the items it requires also require u to already have master tomes???
you were right that gave me a level instantly
do you just have to use the market board?
you need to craft the non-master tome item
fun dungeon too
you don't need the market board the item for the first book doesn't need a master book
How Sacks of Nuts from hunts do you get each week
or is it unlimited
how many do you get
unlimited you get 40 nuts per A rank
The first one needs rose gold Ingot ;_; that’s level 2
!recipe rose gold ingot
its not
I need it to upgrade my 520
anyone knows whats the best way to get more forgotten fragments of skill?
Rose Gold Ingot is just a plain level 50 2-star craft
do giant pulls of the Mata Mata near the entrance to the middle zone
@leaden ginkgo probably partying in bozjan and farming together
ah i see thanks!
@leaden ginkgo What do you need it for
just getting it to use for cluster farming
The stars are an arbitrary difficulty marker
i was searchign it thanks
Since I am a new player, how does one join the novice network?
You have to get invited by a mentor
cape westwind queue, sick
What melds for Aesthete Fishing Rod? Perception or gathering?
Hey there, im looking for a good active hunt/special fate linkshell for the Light-EU datacenter, is there any good place to search for it except in-game?
ultimately depends on what you want to gather. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTnXbCjEBvNCX5u9fno-hdIL0C0ciC3nMChB2DhaWTd-v_uc5UH0TC5W9Ytgy7rWeAeIk_PPlOMSmiA/pubhtml
I also recommend asking in #retired-eu-datacentres
tnx my dude
and there's also the community finder
are you able to let friends use your crystal bell in apartment?
i hear the benchmark is coming out sunday, what exactly is it?
no, only you can interact with stuff in your apartment
basically a stress test cutscene to see how well your PC runs the game. it also includes a character creator that lets you make the new male viera and save the character info for when Endwalker launches
o ok, thank you
does your choice of grand company have any gameplay advantages/disadvantages
or is it just an RP element, and grants you the same benefits
So, if I buy shadowbringer I get access up to date content?
The only real difference is the looks of the gear and where you go to do GC stuff
@jaunty sluice yes
no gameplay differences.
thanks
if you already bought the starter edition, yes.
since you need both starter edition and shadowbringers, unless you mean you want to buy the complete edition.
Yes complete, I don’t own any
so if i apply to duty roulette when it is dps in need
and then while in the queue it switches to healer in need
do i still get the dps in need ?
if i dont reque of course
it snapshots whatever was in need when you queued up
awesome
oh minfilia wants to talk to me? time for 11 load screens
thx
so this mission is in another continent or some shit, i cant see any ships or like a teleporter around
it's called "call of the sea"
you go to the airship landing of your respective city and talk to the NPC as the desk there to enter the docking area
If you attuned to all aetherytes for your city-state, interact with them and choose the "Airship Landing" option
it should be directing you on your map with the quest
if it doesn't show up, the Gridania one is below the Adventurer's Guild, and Ul'dah's is south of the mail moogle near the zone entrance to the other half of ul'dah
about to hit 50, any good armor/weppos to buy in market board?
unless it's super cheap, then no.

No cause they're all Inferior to ironworks
Complete your level 50 job quest and grab the i90 gear from that.
ok
kinda weird i got new gear at 45 "this was special given to me by some dude and i left it all behind.." and now i get class gear at 50 again haha
SE did that to help people gear up faster
dont even know what a tome is
level cap currency
used for endgame gear for each level cap (50/60/70/80)
You'll first get Tomestones of Poetics, used for 50/60/70 gear, from the two 8-man dungeons Castrum Meridianum and Praetorium
you'll get 600 in total, which is enough to buy an i130 weapon for a massive boost in damage
done x2
since level 30 i have literally done nothing else other than msq
Anyone know when I can get my own chocobo?
after you choose your free company
you equipped job stone and done job quest since then? 🤔
I joined a free company but where do i find the quest? Do i have to be a certain level?
continue your 
but yeah a bit odd to see someone below MSQ level
yes of course my class quests too
oh i havent joined that yet, im level 26
because you aren't doing your 
ya its weird
or you're overlevelled relative to it because ofa preferred server
there's no sass
stop inferring intentions from comments please
i'd challenge statement in the appropriate place
Hi there. Is there any permanently missable glamour stuff ? For example what happens if I sell the beggar disguise from the main quest and stuff
Awesome, thanks
Tanikawa Shuntaro's poem, can anyone DM me the name of the poem, I am interested
Please healers queue for Ridorana Lighthouse!
damn i can't find good pictures of grand company gear sets online, what would suit a female miqote dancer most in your guys' mind
Not GC gear
You can get some ideas from here
What's the fastest way to level a new job? I'm at level 60 now, and I wanted to mix up my gameplay a little.
i suppose it doesnt matter that much anyway, i can always switch and level up GCs later apparently
Vanu Vanu/Vath for 50-60, Ananta/Kojin for 60-70, Pixies for 70-80
!faq contentunlock
most DPS queues are around 10-20 minutes depending on the exact dungeon and time of day
Thanks for the info, even if I won't use it right now 😄
can be around 5 with good conditions
So, what's the fastest way to level a new job to 60? It probably wouldn't be a tank or healer.
at least i got a tank now
dungeon spam after daily roulettes
Is there a way to have multiple blue mage gear sets?
is it better to just focus your chocobos levels in one tree or spread it out?
palace of the dead if that has a faster queue
I've found that I can't get more than one of each item from the BiS
even if I put stuff in retainers.
so before you learn royal authority on paladin you're just spamming goring blade eh
So, does that mean I need to switch in and out materia constantly?
Is there a way to change my characters race/appearance after I've already created it?
if you want to min-max, yes.
you get one fantasia for free after the level 50 msq
Yes, tho usually it would cost money.
aside from that it costs money
You can change smaller features like hairstyle/color and face markings with the Aesthetician for a small amount of gil
Oh that's awesome im a long way away from 50 xD
!quest beauty is only scalp deep
Rumors of a dangerous madman about town have S'dhodjbi ill at ease.
S'dhodjbi
Limsa Lominsa (X: 11.18 Y: 11.06)
flustered man
Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (X: 10.36 Y: 12.48)
Call of the Sea
Call of the Sea
Of Siblings and Side-whiskers
ooooh that's good to know
Yea, race changing is Fantasia only, but more minor customs are done by the aethestician from that quest. It's preety nice.
Oh, nevermind.
Putting gear in the retainers worked. I just need to switch out the gear and such.
I heard that PotD lets you try out a job with their higher level kit? Is that tru?
yes, but you don't really get a good grasp on the rotation
things in POTD die too fast for the most part
you only really get a good feel of the job during the boss floor
you also get up to 60 which may not be entirely reflective of a job's full kit and nuances
Hm. Do you know of any video that shows off jobs, but like, their rotation and stuff?
some classes like samurai get many changes past 70 for example
you would ahve to google specific ones. any job you're looking for in particular?
!faq Balance
the balance also has various resources that cover rotations i ntext as well
Wesk Alber has videos of leveling rotations for each job
he covers the openers mostly but does go into their rotation lightly yeah
would go to him if you're levelling up and figuring the class out, or google/look in the balance for level 80 rotations if you're asking about that
Hm. I think BLM and Bard are the ones I'm most interested in seeing.
I'll look him up.
at 80, or while levelling?
Well, it'd be nice if they had fun rotations at lower levels, but I understand that's not always the case.
wesk alber is your guy
Both BLM and BRD early are pain
BLM because its AoE pre-50 is dogshit and BRD because... well, you effectively press one button for 80% of your dungeons
What should I do with all this lower level gear clogging my inventory? Some part of me wants to save it for when I level other classes, but I know that's not really practical.
Tho I'm not sure where to get gear then, actually.
most of the pre-50 gear is pretty cheap to buy back.
the vendors in the starting cities have 1-50 gear
Hello! I just finished the 7th Umbral questline and i was wondering what to do with Poetics Tomestones. Should i use them immediately on Ironworks gear or save them for when I reach the Heavensward/Stormblood vendors? (i'm lvl 58)
!faq peotics
Ironworks is super worth.
but yes ironworks is worth
you don't get the HW/SB ones until after you beat their main stories
It lasts for a while, and a lot of it is usable on other jobs too.
The HW can technically be bought early if you consider 2 msq levels before cap being early
I like Lalafell due to them having pretty expressive emotes
you tend to get a lot of attention, positive, negative, and lewd, as a lala
damn that didnt level me, i need 30k xp real quick
Viera
Also, is it possible to do the Coils of Bahamut raid through Duty Finder?
No
practically, no.
The Binding Coil of Bahamut was essentially balanced around what is now known as Savage Difficulty, which means it's much harder than casual content like dungeons and story trials
I remember making a custom group for some peeps to carry me through it.
Yeah, best to make a PF group, mention new player bonus and unsynced, and you can usually find someone pretty quickly.
I think they get a lil' somethin' if it's your first time through?
100 poetics per duty as the first-time bonus for Coil
so a hefty 1,200 for the entire raid series, since the 3rd raid in the first tier doesn't give any tomestones
But nobody will want to do it with me if i'm watching all the cutscenes
is it possible to solo it later?
at 80 it's a breeze
70 too, for jobs with self-sustain like tanks/healers/red mage
People usually understand if you’re watching coils cutscenes
is the "ultimate" difficulty of the raid for lvl 80 players?
Ah yea, I just did it at that level since I think chronological story feels better.
can someone please tell me where to find the setting to turn off ally spell effects?
Wait T3 doesn't give poetics?
T9 is very rough to solo for a lot of classes, though.
correct. it doesn't even give gear.
That's why you oneshot it
Yeah, best thing to do in T3 is just rush rush rush.
Ultimate is a separate category of difficulty. It's for fights based on old content with the mechanic difficulty tuned to 11. There's two Ultimates at 70 (Coil and Ultima), and one at 80 (Alexander)
are they just a flex or do they actually reward endgame gear?
yes
I'm pretty sure i saw "ultimate" weapon models somewhere but idk if they are just cosmetic
They're actual weapons but they're trash so they're used for glams
Ultimates are basically for the bragging rights, you get a title and super shiny weapons
Wait Wynne what level are the weapons from the ultimates
I think you also get a title.
they were designed as the "best" weapons for their relevant gear tier.
The weapons used to be slightly relevant
So Unending Coil is i345, Ultima is i375, and Alexander is i475
they had the same stats as their tier's savage weapon, but with a third materia slot.
Oh
can anyone help me? i cant move or drag my chat box, i am click hold the general tab or any tab it wont move
When buying new gear, what's the priority for upgrades? Is it weapon>chest/legs>rest?

Weapon > Chest/Pants > Head/Hands/Feet > everything else
This is the general order in which the items are most expensive to cheapest and also the order in what gives the most mainstat
With weapon directly influencing your damage
quick question, fresh to FFXIV. im going through the main quest line, but im 17 lvls ahead of it now. Will this cause an issue later?
not really.
if you want, you can unlock another class and level it up to soak up the experience
i'm having this problem too lmao
like im comming from WoW where im use to being 1 or 2 lvls behind... its freaking me out XD
i started ignoring FATEs and speedrunning MSQ and now i'm only 8 levels ahead
maybe it's because the exp requirements are higher for 50-60 idk
is there any way to make your search info priv?
nope
When is it most efficient to start levelling the crafting/gathering jobs
I've heard that you need some starting capital (1-2 million gil?) to get through them quickly
guys, do I need to do a supply quest for the GC to get the initial 200 seals for a chocobo? I am at the quest to get the chocobo issuance but I have 0 seals
kk
Yes, the chocobo quest line will give you exactly the seals you need
I'd honestly wait until cap to start leveling crafting/gathering, unless you need a break from MSQ.
I say at ishgard restoration, post HW MSQ
Thankfully yeah they just give you the seals now
The next MSQ gives you 300 GC seals for free
You will likely gain profit from it, since you can get kupo voucher/scrips that can be sold for gil
Ah, yeah, Ishgard Resto makes a big difference. I forgot about that, it didn't exist when I 80'd all mine.
but yeah need capital around 500k? maybe?
Some, but Ishgard Resto makes a big difference for leveling.
you should have more than that when you reached that point in MSQ
not just big, kupo voucher stuffs are very expensive...
i'm so far away from that
If you really want to break up the MSQ monotony, GC turnins are just a massive amount of crafter XP, yeah.
And there's Ixali quests.
so are the beast tribes just like WoW reputation grinds where you do the dailies for a month and get a mount at the end?
Yes
where can I check my field notes?
Kinda. The ARR ones take a huge amount of time, but you can also more easily focus on a single ARR tribe. One mount per beast tribe, and a funny questline and a glam piece if you cap all of them. HW/SB beast tribes take less time (more rep per quest), but you have to do all of 'em at once for best efficiency, because you only get more than 3 quests per tribe per day on a day you bump up a rep level with a tribe. Similarly, one mount per tribe, and another funny questline and an emote and glam piece if you cap all of them.
ShB is a bit different, in that there's only one battle tribe, and their dailies give just a buttload of XP.
No ShB unifying beast tribe questline, though, which makes sense since it's hard to follow up from the previous three due to ShB's storyline.
ARR has four combat tribes and a single non-combat beast tribe, the Ixal, who are for crafting classes. HW, all three two are combat, and one is for crafting (and is the most hated beast tribe). SB, two are combat, and one is both crafting and gathering (and the questlines are very funny). ShB has one combat, one crafting, and one gathering.
Most likely, yeah. IIRC you can't get poetics gear until after you do it.
its really my jewellery that sucks
Find the cheapest stuff to get you the ilvl to do the dungeon. Should be pretty easy. Don't worry too much about the gear, the dungeon itself is laughable and the other people will absolutely carry you.
ok spent 40k on 2 115 rings and now i am way past
What
You're golden, then. Just gotta do the two easiest (but longest) dungeons in the game, then you can get Augmented Ironworks.
praetorium makess me wanna dieeeee
Ah, dps? Yeah, that can be a long queue for dps.
ya, second job is definitely gonna be a tank
I'd offer to queue with ya, but I'm on Primal.
what would be the most efficient way to convert gil into items to donate for Doma Reconstruction without losing (or possibly, gaining) value
By chance, is there any suggested in-depth guides for squadrons?
You'll always gain value. Best option if you're doing a lot of ventures is hang on to your Allagan pieces, and use those. It's easy to get to exactly the max weekly donation that way.
That way they also take the fewest slots in inventory between weeks.
trying to do ARR relic for the first time cuz why not. when at the hydra step, do i have to kill hydra with the weapon equipped or can i do it like anima and just use any weapon but equip the weapon before leaving the duty?
Yes, but just know that for the Flagged Missions, you'll just have to keep leveling them until that message changes.
If you do physical+tactical training on that team, you might be able to get all three stats green, though.
You must have it equipped when you defeat the Hydra, I believe.
Some weird stuff just happened. Controller moved off by itself. Thought it was stick drift, but I couldn’t move left to click on teleport. Didn’t fix itself until I closed the game and logged back in.
is the slide deck for the live letter gonna be available anywhere? there was a q&a section in there about belts and other stuff that I want to revisit
finished MSQ, so now I clean up blue quests?
is it too great a loss to not join a proper "maxed level" free company? think i'm in a friend guild that's rank 6 or something
Is there a way to combine different parts of gear with each other to sort of create your glamour ideas without having these items in inventory?
i dont think you get double buffs until 8 but that's pretty small
your FC hardly matters in the long run
FC buffs are a nice convenience, but that's really it.
more importantly you should be with people you like
So how exactly does Delubrum Reginae work? Is it instanced like a normal 24-man raid or is it something you need to enter through some other means like with Castrum?
it's an instanced 24 man raid
you queue for it at the bozja NPC in gangos
you can't queue for it in DF
But it's not something you need to wait for to spawn?
Are people still doing it much these days?
yes
it's involved in the relic step
the problem, though
random queue DRs are risky
because you risk 23 other people being braindead or not using lost actions
which can turn a 20 minute DR run into an hour long one
whats DR?
if there happens to be a DR party on DF you should consider joining that instead
DR with full lost actions can take less than 20 minutes
your average DR will take 30-40
DR is delubrum reginae, a level 80 raid
ah, havent unlocked that yet
Hey guys, I called out an idle guy in Prae thinking he was AFK, but turns out he was there and just refusing to attack. I made a vote dismiss request during downtime, but what I didn't know was that most of the party was his buddies.
Long story short, I was booted during Lahabrea. I was wondering, how did they do it if you can't vote dismiss a member during combat?
did they initiate the vote kick before the boss was pulled?
also, sounds like abuse of the kick system, which is reportable
but also, man it's fuckin prae lol, everyone AFKs in that

I still don't like carrying AFK people
But I'm pretty sure I initiated every boss first before anyone could initiate the vote
afk doesnt sound nice to those who do the work
Hey is Excalibur the 2nd best hardcorre raid server (In Primal)? Behemoth wasnt available so idk what the second will be. Planning on playing for awhile
there aren't any "hardcore raid servers"
you can raid from any server with anyone on your datacenter
most raid teams span over several servers
So im assuming Primal is best overall for Raids?
so party finding group people from different server?
!faq worldpick
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
aether and primal are roughly equivalent
Listen to angry channy, gone though he may be, he is still with us in spirit
Is free company basically guilds?
Which DoH impacts materia melding the most? (if any)
Yes
none
you only need one of any DoH at the required level to meld
Oh okay, is it just DoL with Mining?
Dang thats kinda dumb you can raid across your whole data center but not have a guild that spans that aswell
ffxiv rarely has guilds that focus on raiding
And botany and gishing
guilds are almost 100% social constructs
a raid team can only have 8 players so there's no need to form a whole guild around raiding
If you can have a raid why would you want a guild across data centers, the two are completely unrelated herw
Serious raids are 8 mans
Cheers for the replies guys
The 24 man raids are casual content
i suppose you could do an FC solely for DR savage?
but people just join discord servers for that
What's the difference between a hotbar and a cross hotbar?
cross hotbar is the + looking thing you see controller players using
you can have both a cross hotbar and a normal hotbar
cross hotbars generally aren't used by kbm players
Ohh okay gotcha
Is there a way to create another hotbar that saves per loadout / gear set list?
I have the initial 3, but I want a 4th, that will swap if I swap classes
unshared ones will save according to your class
shared ones will save for every class
so at the fates part of ARR relic, is the drop rate for the stuff still 25% or has it been buffed since then
Perfect, thank you!
Having done it recently, 25% is more or less right still
not sure if it's 25% or been buffed at all but the rate should be pretty quick now
You can have a buddy on Blu and party
oh that makes sense
no
No its a seperate download thing
benchmark should be a downloadable tool for anyone to use
Aaah sweet! Thank you ♡
Should I just focus on MSQ to l 80 plus dailies before really unlocking all the other stuff?

tldr yes
tunnel vision MSQ and your class quests to 80
other stuff, unlock at your leisure
pick up 2 or 3 or more classes to level alongside msq when you get ahead
Cos I just started stormblood, did a lot of unlocks like crystal tower and trials
leveling dungeon is what you should unlock
Yeah did that a few times xD
like cutter's cry and qarn temple
Even at the lower levels it gives good xp
I mean the dungeon thingi that you do every 10 levels
Both
Oh fun
Cause you need to do ifirit hard to get to garuda hard
And do garuda to get to Titan hard
Don't have to do Titan hard though
They're just 8 man versions of the trials
You'll do fine its not that hard 
Hey guys, I'm from the EU and play on ragnarok server, haven't played in a year or so and I feel really lost. If any1 can help me get back into this it would be much appreciated pray
I feel like ive spent more time on these quests than I spent during ARR
Honestly same im at 2.3 rn 
Lmaoo
Its gonna feel so good to get through these quests though
Honestly I feel like im back in classic wow. The quests arent necessarily hard like classic, but they're certainly long
And im kinda enjoying it
Its sure is long but the story is pretty good to me
Oh since I started 2.1 Ive been skipping everything lmfao
I just wanna get to ishgard 😭
is there any point for me to auto attack as cnj/low lvl whm? ive just been keeping up aero DoT and spamming stone for now
am i going about this the right way
so ive been doing it right then?
haha
Rule 1
makes sense
autos as melee do actually count for a chonk of your dps
but it happens naturally over time
Pretty sure you need to get all the others except ixal to rank 4...arr tribes are wack
4 is the max for the arr battle tribes,
get them all to 4 (except ixal, which go to 7) and you unlock a small quest-chain to get them all to 8
They just upgrade to 8 automatically?
after the quest, yes
They jump to 8, no need to grind for it, got it
ARR Beast tribes are a bit weird in that regard
hello, since i was sleeping: when will cross data center region locked be released?
and when it will be possible to visit non region locked dcs?
After September

We don't know when we can go to other regions
after September for the region locked travels?
Some time between September and November
ooh so still a lot of time sadge
This game keep getting more and more confusing, first i find like 3 different LFG functions. Then i learn there are also like 2 or 3 different things that are guilds. Free trading and Fellowships. Uhhh man alot to learn
do we know if it will be a thing tho?
They said "it's region locked at first
how to leave combat with target dummy
right click reset enmity
No announced date for Make it Rain?
thankyou
does RDM and SAM have anima weapon?
so 13 weapon in total

Wait so how do you work the lfg ?
New schedule added
Open party finder > make a listing with the duty you want and description > post and wait
@wintry sable They said in a couple weeks in live letter
how difficult is m/f omega nowadays?
Normal or savage
savage
You still need to do a fair amount of mechanics
You still need to respect mechanics
Dashes and maybe the first syngery with lesser dps
And hello world
the 2nd part of the fight also depends on if your group does the "goodbye world" strat where half the group jumps off or not
So I just hit the I think level 24 parts of the msq, is there like a tonne more to do? I know cap is 50 and I had a boosted toon to 60 so was just curious how long it'll take from there
Just a realm reborn yeah
what's the "benchmark trailer" I've seen popping up on my youtube feed?
Basically a stress test
It's a special cutscene using in game models and effects to test how well you can run the game
Also has a character creator with Male viera
And you can save the character data so you can fantiasa over immediately when servers go livr
The cutscene itself basically teases actions
do i need flying to unlock the hw raids?
damn hahahahaha
im trying to find the not easy being green that unlocks a hard dungeon, but im at the npc that gives that quest and doesnt have it? I already did most of the msq so idk
do i have to play through the regular dungeon once?
Which hard mode is that again
Cause you do need to do the normal mode of the dungeon to unlock hard modes
Yeah gotta go do normal
ty kekw
what are the requirements for unlocking the npc dungeons? i heard it was getting gc level up but is there anything else i need to be/do?
complete the first squadron flagged mission at level 20
sorry where can i find this
Squadrons are unlocked once you hit 2nd lieutenant and after completing a short tutorial sidequest at your GC
ahhh right okay so i do need to level gc, just wanted to make sure i was on the right track
you earn recruits for the squadron after completing entries in the challenge log and level them up by sending them out on missions
is there an overall role or a specific job that makes one say 'well, HE/SHE certainly knows what hes doing!'
like for example i did play a redmage to lvl70 (?) back in stormblood, and i found him rather complex but satisfying to execute
How is A11S unsync
how many levequests do you get everytime you get a new allowance
nothing is inherently harder to execute than anything else - jobs are designed that way
3 allowances every 12 hours
1 levequest = 1 allowance
thank you
Is there any particular reason to do the level 60-70 job quests as they appear? Seems like you don't get anything until the 70 one
experience
decent experience and most go by pretty fast so you can do them while in a queue

i tend to jsut stockpile them ;v
honestly sometimes i stockpile the quests from 50-60 too
hell, sometimes i hold all the job quests for 50-70
potd and hoh gives me all the skills while im in there anyway
hey guys where can i see the translation for the Livestream?
yes
do you guys use dx12?
no
i understand it's due to that
dx11
xiv only supports dx11 afaik
no, dx is downwards compatible
well obviously it isnt
cuz i can;'t play the bloody game XD
after wasting money on it
should say DX11 on launcher before you click play
yeah its on
might not be dx related issue then
No point in doing any of them if you're a combat job.
They're good exp for crafters and gatherers.
They're hot garbage for combat jobs.
Ignore them.
should i be worried about this?
Does wiping during a trial and you get a stat increase, do you get less loot?
No
welcome to my world

when i had unexpected errors i just did a clean install of my graphic drivers
Seeing the name Eirwyn Eryi, what FFXIV race comes to mind?
yeah, nothing ive been trying actually works
2 fresh installs of the game, now i get another one where it crashes on character creation
try running the game in borderless mode
it's normally a problem when the game didnt load Dx properly
do that if you want the error to stay always on top..
it might be due to your drivers
Still need a hand?
Do enemy aoe attacks actually have active frames or do they just check the circle at the end of the cast and then the circle becomes safe even if it's a giant pillar of fire ?
It varies
i'll name my firstborn after whoever helps fix this
uninstall
Usually the former
and reinstall
unless it's a specific attack that persists
Try disabling OC on your graphics card, if it's on, and reinstall your graphics driver. I had the same DLL shit itself in another game once
I see, thanks for the info. Any way to tell which is which? Like does the circle persist as well or is it a different color or something ?
.> I'm lvl 80. of course.
If it's persistent it's usually very obvious
Once the aoe Goes away positions are snapshotted
like the fire animation keeps going for five seconds or more
Animations don't matter unless it's channeled mostly
it usually clips at around 90% of the cast bar
It's when the castbar fills
the same problem from the thread 3 years ago
adjust for ping.
try this
I see, thanks
If you've never tampered with your computers settings/drivers please don't do it btw lol, you could mess up your entire computer. However, if you know how to do what was suggested, then by all means
Go Crazy, Go Wild
if you update driver and still not fix then just play in borderless for now and wait new release
Feeder, he's already said bordeless doesn't help
is there anyway to solo duty finder msq?
!faq unsync
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
yeah i already run the game in borderless, the error kinda just happened when my computer went into screensaver mode, i closed the errors and kept playing, seems fine so far
i mean you can probably solo the dungeon as a war with potions
at lvl 50 with the best gear available
Only post like Equilibrium and Nascent later
Again, greatly depends on the duty
Potions are fucking shit
Does anyone know if changing the password is in some form bugged? Just to make sure I didnt mistyped it I changed it 2 times, but every time i try to login it just says wrong password
your capslock isnt on is it
i tried search this in jp for you the USER32.dll seems to be the memory problem
Any chance I can find that out? "Forgot ID or password" only lets me reset the password :X
Been 7 years since I created the account 
hey, i just started miners and botanist. i heard when you pop prospect you can see where to mine or botanist by looking at the minimap for the blue or yellow wheat. But i dont see it on my minimap. how do i know where to mine or botanist?
u have ntdll problem too i think you need to upgrade your windows
For all the praise it gets and all the media attention, I've never seen a game run so poorly and be so user unfriendly
runs just fine
Seems kept together by duct tape
Mate, it's obvious something is wrong with your PC
i never have problem
if you maybe try what we suggest it might fix the issue
reinstalling the game won't help you
@rotund crater what have you tried so far
Sorry just a bit salty
is your windows activate by KMS, driver downloaded online or did you crack something
o3o obviously it's a your computer problem not the game problem; otherwise you'd see more people here talking smack
You need to be close enough to the nodes for them to appear on the minimap
Ovetclocking isn't on
before blame the game lol
So I've finally unlocked Pyros and I'm curious about a few things
Nope, fully legit windows
Did you try a clean install of your graphics drivers @rotund crater
oh wow people still do eureka
Of course
Trying to figure that out now
Right
whatcha want to know
Instead of figuring it out, find a guide
there's a decent youtube video how
For your own sake
Eureka is run plenty yeah, people do BA almost every day
nvwgf2umx.dll is the NVIDIA issue
I'd mainly like to know how to go about it nowadays, especially when it comes to collecting actions to unlock the elemental armour
download Display Driver Uninstaller
I don't care much for the weapon itself
Then you have to explain the niceties of safe mode
It's that complex?
o/ I'm thinking of starting FFXIV. My only prior MMO experience is Guild Wars 2. Do weapon sizes get scaled to character sizes?
It's not that bad, it's more a case of trying to word the how and why in a user friendly way
That's a shame... F it, gonna play Lalafell anyway
@rotund crater try run sfc scan first do sfc /scannow in cmd
@rotund crater https://youtu.be/ogwZMPE5dXA
►In this video I show you how to do a clean driver install using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to do a fresh install of your graphics drivers. This guide works for the new NVDIA RTX 3080 or 3090. This guide also works with the new AMD 6900xt and 6800xt.
DOWNLOAD LINKS :
NVD...
i'm already playing with ddu
Let's give him the clean install GPU drivers first, one thing at a time. If that doesn't work, sfc might
If it yeets my pc then so be it😋
It's not noticeable unless you're comparing races
It'll make your screen have a bit of a moment, but not much else @rotund crater
I'll check Mrhappy's video, though I'm not looking forward to solo grinding
It'll fix itself when you reinstall the driver anyway
I'm reading my earlier stuff and they are a bit ultra salt sorry about that, I appreciate everyone helping <3
No worries man
I daresay a good deal of us know the pain of obscure GPU bugs being a pain
it's weird coz these drivers problems are fix daily with windows update
Blade's Justice is bigger than three lalafell on top of each other
weird question maybe but I've been trying to find out how many side quests there are in ARR as well as the various expansions. is that information out there somewhere?
don't worry about your screen resolution being funky during the process
talking about regular sidequests
it'll fix it self after the graphic drivers are reinstalled
^^
Shock horror, your changing GPU drivers, a little bit of weird is expected until you're done
!faq questicons
- 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.
This so no one really tracks them
Ok graphics driver is ded, reinstalling it now
Roger that
lodestone has all of the quests so can maybe just use that/
but that said, it doesn't break it down between
and 
so you're gonna have to do that part yourself
how do I get the aether current up on the bridge?
… that one is a pain
there’s a tomb or sth top right
start there
oh yikes
black line is a shortcut into the tomes, red line is the long way round
welp if that's any help user32.dll and other files mentioned in the error point to a graphics problem
Just did a freshie on the graphics driver
Final fantasiu stoppedu working
💯 💯
Meaning what you did actually made a difference
squeenix acc recovery is aids... apparently when i registered centuries ago I probably set my birth date randomly and now it wont let me reset password because you need to set your birth date that you registered with

Can steam accounts renew their sub from time cards?
Ok am there
sfc /scannow
is there a guide/template for making expandable macros? I want to make one for my job switching
yes but sometimes it can be a bit finicky. May need to use an incognito or different browser to see other than steam wallet
this is the part where the indian techsupport calls me to give them access to my pc yes?XD
(verification loading)
Can anyone please help? Something happened to my game yesterday when i logged off the game froze and i had to reboot pc manually. And today every time i try to boot the game up it loads to the point where is the black screen with the in game mouse before square enix logo. I switched from Directx 11 to 9 and that helped game is running but why does my directx 11 started crashing all of a sudden?
My friend has a steam account. If he bought time card from G2A can he renew his sub or not?
like i said, if you don't initially see options other than steam wallet
try incognito mode or a different web browser
So he can't even if he has a time card?
that's not what i said
The macro used to make your weapon glow while unsheathed; why does it work? You sit down, then it starts glowing? What is the exploit it’s using?
sometimes the mogstation can be a bit weird for steam users in that they may only see the steam wallet option
if this is the case, then make use of your web browser's incognito mode, or use a different web browser to go to the mogstation
to see the other payment options
yes
Yes
