https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ8nHeUP1iA how did jesse add that pig char costume in the benchmark?
The Final Fantasy XIV Benchmark Trailer is out and it lets you put your character into the trailer! So of course we had to do Lil' JC - but ALSO we had to get goofy with it.
Seriously, check this game out! The base game and first expansion are now FREE (I'm on the Jenova server): https://www.finalfantasyxiv.com/
New Merch at the store! http://...
It's in the options
Among other sets
YEah, it has a pretty good selection.
swine outfit is last option in the menu of equipment to use
I don't think it was in previous benchmarks so it's easily overlooked.
Why does my Gold Saucer challenge log only have 4 missions in it?
do you have the optional crap unlocked? (lord of vermilion, triple triad touney, chocobo racing)
at low level is there any difference beetween the 2 fairies ? when just becoming scholar
No difference at high level either
oh ty
Just aesthetic
should i set them on guard for the auto heal right?
Does it make sense to farm Odin synced (I am level 55) for the black armour set that Asmongold has, or will it be faster to farm it solo unsynced when higher level?
at which level can I quickly solo him, is 60 or 70 enough or do I need to be 80?
the higher the better
probably will want lv70+
They should just auto heal all the time regardless unless they're moving about
if I ask in my FC, will someone farm it for me, or is the drop chance too low for it to be done quickly to have the full set?
idk if I should bother asking
hey there! im hella new and im just checking out the classes (kinda alot to see xD) i still dont know what do play exactly. is there someone who played almost every DD to help me out?
can't trade the odin trial drops but if can get another person to help that makes it farmable now (instead of leveling)
If this vid helped you pick a job lemme know, I wanna judge you on your choice :)
I'm making a game! ► https://twitter.com/NotOnlyNine

00:00 Intro
01:09 Dark Knight
02:03 Gunbreaker
02:47 Paladin
03:29 Warrior
04:16 Samu...
try this first
after that ask away
the l;arryzar video might not be up to date on monk but it's close enough for horseshoes and hand grenades
mm do job quests give you armor at 50? or is that only through the MSQ? (basically asking if I should buy the armor with uhm poetics as soon as I hit 50 with my DRK)
For drk, you can buy ironwork armor
Using poetics
But they give you armor, yeah
I think heavensward expansion jobs only give out at 50 (coffer)
And it’s just HQ crafted armor
mm is it worth buying then? or just carry on with the quest one or drops?
if can buy ironworks that'll be much better than the job (af) set
there isnt a lvl 50 DRK set
since its a HW job
each class gets a set at their respective cap at the times when it was released
Main story won't give you ironworks gear
Just get it
Not only is poetics easy to get but it also just sets you up way faster and lets you progress faster
Ik about the ironworks from poetics, and sure thing
wheniver i press i for my inventory, it starts on my key items and crystals tab instead of the items tab, can i set it somewhere to always start on items?
mine just resumes at the same tab i left it at
what expansion is this mount from?
most recent one
Shadowbringers
from getting all ex trial mounts in shb
you collect all the gwibers and then you unlock the special mecha gwiber
draggos
oh so the final ShB mount is a mecha dragon? nice
2 seater
The land her waffle
I dont think I quite understand limit break, if I use limit break does it expend it for the entire party?

Hello everyone, if I purchased an account-wide mount and then created a new character can I still receive it?
If you waste LB people will know
Yes
probably party finder. it should still get some people who'd like to do it due to having bis for tea and a mount.
@open ember How could I find the mount?
can I buy stuff from mogstation using steam wallet?
It gets mailed to you
what is leather grimoire
Then open it up from the inventory
it sodent seem to have any power
A early acn weapon
So I probably shouldn't just use it unless I know what I'm doing
where can I see how much money I haev
The Gil counter in the corner
okay so i hella love the ninja (played rogue/arcane mage for years in wow xd) but it sounds to hard for me playin it casually.
black mage i got said is pretty hard also, that true?
otherwise dragoon looks fun to play - would love to take one of them to level to the samurai i think.
thanks
all are hard to play but start super simple
MSQ gives you more than enough time to get used ot the classes
play what you want, thats the FFXIV meta
(reposting in this channel since general seems to be drowning in asmongold territory)
is there any official news about DC travel coming in 5.58 or was the leak on Steam the thing we're still going off of?
I was hopeful for DC travel in 5.58 but now the patch is coming in only a few days with not much said about DC travel in it...
we're not sure yet about DC travel
you say that so easy 😄
is a black mage easy to level up?
Where’s the quest you need to be able to use materia?
hm
what ive read theres not really much sustain in any class than healers/tanks, right?
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
yep, but all classes can do solo content
Some, enough for overworld content
You’ll live if you’re not doing something really dumb
Like not avoiding aoes
so I was at a dungeon and unit frames weren't even visible. Is it a bug or how do I turn it on again?
unit frames are the list of enemies right
no meant the party frames sorry
party list in your hud layout should be a thing
maybe you turned them off on accident? i assume it just wasn't up at all when you were doing the dungeon
hmm not sure, i'll look at it next time i enter a dungeon.. thanks a lot
i'm having such a brutal time trying to download the complete collection from square enix (pc version)... any tips anyone has?
!faq download
i already have the client downloaded (free trial, its been working fine), just need to put in the cd key to gain access??
Yes, into mogstation
@modest igloo @knotty lily @boreal storm aight imma try out some black mage than,hope im doin good leveling up ^^
any tip about quests? should i use any sidequest?
and whats with jobs, is there a specific one to pick up from the start or not that important early on?
what's mogstation? 😬
Do i need to be level 19 as disciple of the hand to use Madeira on my battle gear o_O?
Materia*
You need to pick thaumaturge to be a black mage
!faq altlvlguide
Is the epic of Alexander ultimate much harder than e12 savage?
Yes
they're not comparable in difficulty
TEA is way harder
the first 2 minutes of TEA is harder than all of e12s
!faq newplayertips
That's a good place to start with how to level up. Don't need to do side quests with
, just
and job quests and however else you want to level
this guide should answer most of those early questions for ya
FFXIV's leveling is focused on story
Lol omg that answers my question very well, thanks!
mgp boosts won't increase how much i get from khloe's tickets, right?
How do I set a flag mark on my map with specific coordinate?
You can do with materia mender
don't bother with melding until 80
or you can ask somebody else to mend for you
!faq mogstation
^ the FFXIV/FFXI account management website
it's near southern thanalan on the map too
if i recall correctly, isnt there something in HW where you can exchange something for MGP?
you can get MGP tickets from khloe's books
how much mgp does it give? is it worth it lol
Depends on the reward level
1 line is 30k, 2 lines is 100k, 3 lines is 1m
^
ok so im only lvl 12 with my pugilist, not found where I change class. But I am thinking il just stick it out until I can get advanced classes. How about pugilist into red mage/dancer (im interested in those 2)
Do your level 10 class quest and then you can go to the other guilds and pick up the other classes
red mage unlocks at lvl 50 and dancer at 60 iirc
hrm, ok i did some lvl 10 class quest, but I got a new one too so maybe after that i guess.
^ assuming you own the relevant expansions
you get class quests every 5 lvls in base game
RDM needs a level 50 and DNC needs a level 60, yes.
Is there any difference between Aether, Primal or Crystal?
what mounts can you farm in ARR?
how to make minion sit on you
Aside from Crystal having a bit more RP nahhh @sharp lily
...RP?
they need to have particular behaviour type and use /beacon on them iirc
Not all minions can but /beckon should do it on most cases
well I figure Il buy the stuff later when I get to 60 since i can play for free for now. ok but its ok to go from pugilist into those? I read you can borrow skills from main class or something, not sure.
It's random but those that can you use the /beckon emote to force it.
Roleplay
oh. Weird.
That's not true you don't carry any actions over
Horses from ARR extremes
also, this is the evil god you want to talk to in ildyshire. her books are worth doing for tombstones and exp alone
can I unlock some extremes yet?
alrighty
ok, so I cant take skills at all, i got that notion in some guide.
what ar etombstones again
That guide would be yeaaaaars old @undone wigeon
you trade them for gear at lvl 50/60/70 (and 80, but that's a different type of tombstones)
cant create on the server wtf ._.
allright, thanks.
if you are below 80, you get 500 poetics a week from her book
its not the same gear as the lady in the building in idilshire?
^ it's basically a currency you get for doing certian content that you can spend on the endgame items in those expansions
if you are 80 then you can get some lvl 80 tombstones as well
anyone know of a discord where I can see world boss spawns? I need another ixial horse fate spawn thing....
You can get shire gear with poetics that is ONE thing
How do i cancel world vist que
is that like a queue or just a error code?
ah ok thats cool
thank you
Servers have been super full due to new player wave
Can't see the actual text but it's probably just the worlds having too many people logged in at once. The game got an insane amount of players coming in and it's struggling to cope lol
rip
You can't I'm very sure
damn okay
these are the rewards for doing the book
Damnnnbb
exp is always 50% of your current class current level
map, tombstones other than poetics and gold cert are only available if you got at least one combat class lvl 80
what if i pick another world? can i still play with my friends? lul
I can't even leave the city. Bruh
If you go to a different server in the same data center you can do content like dungeons and raids with them and you can visit their servers still but you won't be able to join their FC and that's the main thing really @wanton niche
the reward pool (besides exp) is determined when you pick up the book
you can't access your retainers iirc too
Yeah but that's not a huge issue because you can just go back to your server for that
or at least can't put up stuff on sale
wait you can visit servers xd
joining FC? whats that
ah, you get locked out of linkshells outside of cross world linkshells
FC is a guild
FCs are the guild equivalent in other MMOs
@dusty terrace @wintry chasm @plush hound thankyou
Also yes you can visit other servers in the same data center
You just get some limitations
We touched on two just now
ooooooooookay starting to get confusing now haha 😄 ill leave it and try to join the same server hope its not takin to long 😄
you can still buy stuff from mb, so if you want to pinch a penny you can hop between worlds looking for the best deal
Guys I’m tempted to craft blade’s euphoria but endwalker is near and with it better weapons so idk I’m conflicted
is it free
Yes
can you change appearance/race later on? miqote ears out of the hat kinda suck xD
yes
Yes
how?
you get 1 free character remake once you finish base game
You get a free Fantasia upon completing the story
after that you need to buy more for cash
You use a fantasia for that. You get a free one after finishing the 2.0 MSQ but any others you have to buy from the Online Store.
okay okay so if i dont find a n1 mogg to hide that ears while casting some hella big fireballs ill can use the free one, got it 😄
How to visit? Go to a main aetheryte in the main cities and select world visit or whatever it's called
obligoatry complaint that they are too stingy with fantasias, they should at the very least give one per expension
thank you
You won't be able to. The ears either poke through or the hat has pointed features when a Mi'quote wears them.
oh wait, there are even specific hats for that xd?
can I log in with my character to another world? they have removed que from free trials, cant log in. I am on light/odin.
(also if someone know a good non que world)
If your character is in other server you can still log into it if that is what you mean
No I only have one character.
If you mean "can I log into other server since mine has a queue" then no
Not unless you pay for a home world transfer lol
Which would be a stupid thing to do
Yeah that doesn't mean anything
ok, kinda sucks, but this was not the way when i started a few days ago, il prob have to pick a new server
this server allways have had some kind of que
Just wait the queue
i am trying to do the quest as goes light so goes darkness where I rescue hostages. WHERE IS THE LAST HOSTAGE?? 
All servers have a queue
Most hats change shape for the ear covers if Mi'quote wear them. The few that don't just have the ears clip through.
The game is stupid popular
its 1000 que atm lol
rn every server always has a queue
Oh to be fair with that I think Light data center has been having issues and that is tied to it @undone wigeon
so basically i can never log in anymore, I am not allowed to be in que as free trial. It is changed.
damn okay, ty
Not only that but some servers are full over capacity, I've seen Trial players not be able to get in
Like, I think Light has been breaking
FFXIV is booming too hard right now. Every NA server was closed to characters at some point, servers are choked
miqote ear protectors look as stupid as they are adorable
Chaos has connection issues too, at least for me
yesterday i was in a que and log in, now i get cant be in a que message and it quit.
i had no issues on Cerberus
the login queues are usually 20-30 people long
so it's not that bad
For paid players, a queue yeah - Trial players are getting shut out of the game hard
F
i bought the game about a month ago and made it past realm reborn a bit into heavenward altough i had to stop playing, can i use the free trial to continue playing?
Once confirmed* paid, always paid
if you bought the game but didn't activate they key then sure
yeah, thats why I dont want to be payed yet, might take me a bit to get to 60
i didnt know about the free trial thingy till after i got like 50
Once you paid you cannot go back to the free trial.
took me around 200 hours to get trough hw
noted thanks guys
any lvl 80 miners that can tell me roughly how much gil i could make an hour by mining highly sought after ores?
guys is it worth leveling 2 jobs at the same time with the server xp bonus?
Hey guys, brand new.. I made a character and realized I might not like it but I already have friends in that server and world. I know if I pay more I can have more than one character per server but can I have more than one character in each world? Want to try archer before deleting the first character.
Im a lvl 45 DRG but havent unlocked the gauge. When will it be unlocked?
also @quiet valley so u can have multiple classes on one character
How hard is the last boss from shadowbringers as the one from stormblood was kind of hard xD
and you can swap worlds by paying money, but if you are all on the same DB u can go to other servers for free
oh wut.. Ok, then I'll just change class. I'll look into that.
just cants join FC on them
Lvl54 you get blood of the dragon
Is it ok to ask for crafting requests here or is there a better channel?
Oh ok
prolly another channel
I can see someone hacking in the floor but I can't see their name I only managed to get their first part of the name, is there anything I can do about this?
It really depends on the ore. The most expensive per unit tend to be from level 80 legendary nodes but those have such a low result over time (the nodes respawn every 24 in game hours) that overall lose notable profitability. Alternatively there's ores around midrange that are common where only HQ will get you above vendor value but you can mine them all the time so the overall brings it up. You just have to watch the market for the best results.
Cant point out one specifically buuuut ores dont oftensell so much, the market tends to gets flooded sometimes too because retainers can gather ore so passively. Good luck, though
is it worth it to buy blood of the vortex from market board for 250k?
Wait so I just have to switch to a bow to go to archer class? Where do I need to go to change to archer?
i really like it as a glam for samurai
but its expensive
and im only level 50 so i dont have a lot of gold
Sorry, a bit confused - a Standard sub gets you one character per server/world (these are the same thing). The expensive sub gets you 8 chars per server.
Also just bear in mind that after you finish the 2.0 story, you get a free Fantasia (to change race/gender/etc.) so you can just wait and keep going on one, wont take long.
Thank you, I'm only level 5 so I wouldn't mind starting over but maybe I'll just keep on going and change later.
I'm getting a "Unable to obtain character data" message will it fix itself or no?
After you get a class to level 10 and do its quests (and after you unlock airship flight to other cities, possibly level 15~), the Archer guild is in Gridania and you can unlock it there. One character can level all 30+ jobs in the game.
Side effects of the servers being very full
Servers are choking, overloaded - you may still be able to login despite this though, so give it a try and dont worry about it if you see it
I was able to get in after like 20 mins when it happened yesterday
I get another message saying that the world is full and then it kicks me out of the game
yep gotta wait till i'ts not full
Ah yeah. Common for Trial players - Paid players are prioritized, and as mentioned the servers are more overloaded than EVER lately. Its rough
Sorry, keep tryin and good luck :/
I'm fine with that just as long save or whatever
um i order fantasia of mog station were do i find it on my char
Go to any mail moogle
It will get send to you by delivery moogle. May take some hours
kk
(read: Some hours to many hours)
Fantasias generally only take an hour or so at most since it’s a character specific item
yup
what expansion is after HW?

As in why don't they? Because you can apply a PS4 and a MAc version on the same account. It's only on Windows that it's a problem with Steam.
Hello! I have a level 53 ninja, I find the class pretty fun to play.
I read that some people didn't like the feeling of this class at high level because of the mechanics constantly ruining the Trick Attack phase, making the class more tedious to play than fun
Is it true? (I'm asking that because I'm pretty slow at leveling, and finding out that the class I've been playing for hours is tedious at high level annoys me)
I was hesitating about playing samurai, that is much simpler, but maybe more rewarding? Since it's that straight forward
No, not stupid. It's just an oddball situation.
there are thousands of people who sticks with ninja regardless of this because of mechanic
What are some sources of exp gear and where can I get em for leveling a lower level job? :)
the fun of melee is maximizing your uptime despite mechanics
I know theres something like the helm of light you can get ingame without having to get the collectors edition
(Dumb question) Just to make sure one last time since I'm playing the trial on the Website version and if I buy it on steam and enter my login details my character from the the Webiste one will all be there correct?
I’m a bit confused on getting a second relic weapon. I thought I didn’t have to do the grinds a second time but the quest asks me to get all these memories of the dying again?
Far as I'm aware, If you own game on client but buy steam DLC, it wont work
486 in que to login to odin right now 0.o has the que been this big before?
That's pretty much it.
yes
my flame commander not selling me one
From the gc dude
Grand Company Quartermaster
200 seals
Who do I talk to to get the friendship circlet?
spriggan is full and 1k+ queue 😂
That's from the Recruit a Friend campaign
was 2k queue yesterday at some point
From recruiting someone
@plush hound Just read I can get it if I gave someone or used someones code, ive gfiven someone my code
Can anyone help me understand this
is there a website or other way to tell how long a server has been in 'preferred' status for?
I read that it lasts 90 days, and stops at that point regardless of when you created your char
@indigo muralit gets sent to your mail in game
Where did you read that? It lasts 90 days from character creation or when the server stop being preferred. Whichever happens last
I'm having trouble getting the benchmark to run on my laptop. My laptop meets the minimum specs, but it's freaking out and closing the window when I try to tell it to run the character creator or the actual benchmark program. I suspect the problem is that it's using the Intel graphics card, not the Nvidia one. It's set to use the Nvidia card in the Windows settings, but that's not fixing it. Help?
I can't recall. reddit I believe but it was upvoted by the community
if that's incorrect then let me know
What I just told you is correct
check the settings for the benchmark. On the right hand side of the main window.
Any way to check how long is left on it? Or just gotta remember ish when you joined
oh ok
It doesn't show the option for another graphics card.
Yeah just remembering on your own typically. If you get your first achievement on the day you make the character you can use that date
Only the Intel one.
Ah good point cheers
Try importing your settings. that might fix it.
What are you able/unable to do with people on the same datacentre, but not on your server? Is it just joining the same free companies and linkshells?
It's still not working. The game is normally set to use the Nvidia card, because the Intel one is extremely not up to this game.
Where can I buy gear to start off on a new job? :)
Probably a stupid obvious question haha, is it just general gear merchants?
Yes.
If it's one of the expansion jobs, it'll be the general merchants in the big city for that expansion - Ishgard has the Machinist/Dark Knight/Astrologian gear, for example.
Is there a problem on EU servers, I try to connect to ragnaros and there is queue but instead of making me wait it kicks me out of the game.
Does anyone know if the devs have acknowledged this?
@final girder you free player or subscribed
thats normal
It wasnt such an issue really at first more of an inconvenience, but this is everynight for 1-2 hours per night
you should be able to log in as normally as you should
its their measure to avoid server overload
Well it doesnt work very well
not so much a bug but rather an anti-server-blowing-up measure
so you wont see it fixed
and veteran rewards are these just sub time or 'played'?
I reload and it eventually shows my character, then closes the game when i try to load
Then I have to enter my "one time password" for the 5594th time a night
It's boring af
Veteran Rewards are granted based on the number of days subscribed rather than time played.
nm
ah if its about server crashing or your game crashing then yeah thats server issue
I get a blackscreen with a message telling me servers are full
and the only option is to close the game
servers are full. this is peak times im guessing
and I have to login again
i cant get in either
the sales being halted are warranted huh
I wouldnt mind if they actually had a functional queue system, but for me having to login 30x per day every single day is just making want to uninstall tbh
ive bought the game but might have to use my code so i can actually get in haha
they are going to increase server capacity but the recent player boom caught them off guard
try again in a couple days
why should I have to sit refreshing for hours upon hours and logging in constantly just to play the game lmao
thats really the only best advice i can give
I bought the expansion.
@dull valley Free, same thing than Salt just above you
he bought the game
oh wtf
i thought it was only for free trial players that it was happening to
I bought today, was having the problem for free
but even still
For free players theres no excuse not to have a functional queue system
are hotkeys stores locally or on the server?
unfortunately server's still overloaded right now
To force free players to have to constantly login 300x and refresh just to login?
id suggest to try again sometime later
not quite much you can do from your end sadly
Not an ingame question persay, just wondered if anyone has submitted a ticket recently and if so how long was the response time - i'm a dummy and forgot my authenticator restore key
Is there some sneaky way you can force the launcher to keep you logged in atleast?
So watching the cinematic at the end of ARR right before HW I noticed a distinct lack of blood at one part (arm), is there a "mature" setting I need to turn on or is that just how it is?
@gray ferry I submited two three days ago and still no answer, I htink their support is really rubish
That's just how it is. It may have been a budget decision at the time
kk just makin sure
probably getting slammed rn.
all good tho
Does TEA require a higher piety than E12S P1?
Returned from vacation to find that trial players cant queue anymore which I guess is understandable. But how big are the queues now? What numbers we talking?
Yea just fc and normal linkshells AFAIK, there crossword linkshells too tho so 🤷
I'm unsure if this is a bug but when I was doing "The Ultimate Weapon" quest in the dungeon near the final 3 boss fights players were defeating the bosses while I was still in a cut scene up until the very end
it's unintended behavoir
They're probably just in different languages.
spriggin had like 2k queue last night and 1k tonight
I play with German audio, which is faster than English. I don't start fights early unless we don't have any newbies, but I could.
because of how cutscenes work, if you leave and reconnect you can force the game to skip the cutscene for you. That's not supposed to happen and it's a report-able offense
now yeah different languages are faster though and that's normal
As a free trial player it either gives me a queue of about 100 maximum, or just locks me out of the game at peak times. I'm assuming the queue is much higher when it locks me out
it was odd because another person had this problem and we both couldn't fight anything
That's only a few seconds, though - if it's more than about 10-20% down, they're reconnecting.
the game is literally sold out on the SE store
does anyone know how to add game time if you have a steam account? what am i supposed to choose on the renew page? 🤔 just steam?
!faq mogstation
holy shit haha
What in the world happened? Is the streamer that big?
It's more about balancing it right, as Utlimate synchs your gear to it's required ilvl.
9.1 happened, on top of Asmongold being like "yeah 9.1 has literally nothing for me, back to FFXIV"
no, its just wow is in a slump and people are looking for a new game
(I say, waiting for Support to get my account back after it got stolen for RMT spam. It's in progress, they say!)
wow patch 9.1 released after a long wait and it turned out to be awful
I just got a name change, but when I try to change my name in the character menu, i get a system message saying I need a name change.
not so much awful as just incredibly meh
It'll take a while for it to clear mogstation and make it to the game servers
just be patient
yknow like
it's... well, it's there. I guess.
everything is congested
yeah i got to that page but i'm confused if i just click add subscription or do i click steam payment cause i have ffxiv through steam
either one works
i think
I don't use steam
but add subscrption should give you an option for steam wallet
doesnt matter both works
If I made a trial account on SE website, can I buy the game on steam to upgrade? Or do i have to buy on SE?
hmmmm ok, ty
You are locked into SE
Well, retail
you can transfer to Steam
could try something like GMG
I just bought it from SE
but only SE to Steam
how do i access the odin trial?
*was literally sold out
@fading helm quest chain
You need to get a gold on the Odin Fate
🙂
odin fate? where that
can you actually farm pony on extreme unsynced as group? We did severalt tries and it doesnt drop
You can do unsynced, yes
yes it dropped for me but my inventory was full lol
What is unsynced?
so I can buy it on Steam and use the key to upgrade via Mogstation?
It randomly spawns in the Shroud areas as a rare fate. When the weather becomes "Tempered" the Fate is active. Then you have to find it as it's hidden until you're in range of it.
When you do either with a smaller than normal group, or lower level content without being synced down
my pc crashed while i was trying to get into my homeworld and was queueing for 23 minutes to go from moogle to louisoix, am i stuck now?
Does the same to me
yes, kinda
you just sign into the steam client with your free trial login, i believe
Ah it seems back online
It just means that your character hasn't been auto-logged out. In a couple minutes it will be fine. You'll have to requeue for the world travel again though.
20% drop chance I heard but no mount in sight
No one knows the exact drop rates on them
Only plättar and no pancakes?
Is there a title award for completing e12s?
yes
20% does not mean 1 in 5.
Thanks! How do you get it and how do you apply it?
completeing e12s, open your character menu and go to the profile submenu
What?
It jusst dropped and i got it ❤️
grats
I dont guess you can place map markers can you?
Bring up the main map and right click where you want to place it.
Is there a weapon profession guide for samurai
@plush hound when iright click it just drags
Ctrl right click on the map
ty
right, ctrl right click. I knew I was missing something.
Do I have to claim the achievement first?
title rewards are automatically granted
uhhhh actually i'm not sure if it's e12 or e12s
yes
I cannot find the title nor the achievement 😫
Blacksmiths make Sam weapons
Oh, so no title then?
No worries!! Can’t show of now haha I was so proud
Guess I’ll use the mount whenever I can lol
You have your clear book
HI. i finally beat main game story, unlocked astro that i wanted to play, but its just lvl 30, how do i bring it to 50 to continue main scenario?
Yeah, I also thought it had a title.
side quests, fates, dungeons

i tried to log in but i got a notification that the entry is restricted atm and that i cant join how long does this usually take?
is the top row quest locked aether currents and the bottom exploration ones? If not what are the red ones up top?
I've just been doing my msq and my job quests but I'm way higher level than my msq level, is that normal?
we can't really tell you
yes
top is quest rewards
and
the bottom is epxlore

I was looking at picking up a second job while waiting for a friend to catch up to my current progress, I'm currently a bard at level 52 right before the end of the realm reborn.
Any recomendations? I was looking at Red mage, Samurai and Astro and Dark Knight. But I'm a bit unsure of which to go for
Ah thanks, will my level eventually level out with the msq level?
Do you own Shadowbringers?
I do
depends on how much optional content you do, but yes
Ah ok thanks, yeah I'm just planning on doing msq and job quests
Astro and DRk Knight is locked behidn the 2.x grind so may as well pick up Red Mage and Samurai first
RDM's core kit is essentially complete at 50 so if you don't like 50 RDM you probably wont like 80 RDM
SAM is missing it's gauge and a few buttons so if you don't like 50 SAM try sticking with it a little
¯_(ツ)_/¯
quick question guys, if I already own all DLC but found shadowbringers collectors edition (digital key) for cheap online, if i bought this and entered the code on mogstation would it give me all the unlockables like mounts etc
SAM and RDM are DPS, AST and DRK are a healer and tank
AST notably may be getting another overhaul of sorts with EW so
is there any way to check if i can log in without actually launching the game? after clicking ok it just closes the game and i have to run it again to check if i can log on
it depends on how much you want to stick with something that may change in 4 months
not really
this is unpreceedented demand
they'll probably put in a feature on the website when they have the dev time for it
but for now, it's not possible
ok thanks
Hey there, just bought the base game on steam (9.99€) and the queue seems stuck at this point, it's been about 3 minutes and it never moved.
What do you mean the 2.x grind?
Best solution is to either purchase the game, or wait a month or two for their capacity to catch up to demand and try it again then
Is there a long questline to be able to start Astro and Drk?
Lf somone that is willing to get in 1 on 1 call to help me buy xpac
drk job quest is pretty fun if it helps
Well I bought it @dull valley and it seems that it did nothing for the queue
nope just get to heavensward main city and you can get it
Oh okay np
For you, might just try to move to a less populated data center
can somone help me buy the xpansions?
I have been doing fine on mine
Oh, Alright... Hmm, I'll wait until I get these last few quests done and then pick up dark knight, and then maybe red mage as it seems pretty fun.
Currently on Moogle in europe
are you almost done with ARR main story or almost done with patches?
Do you need help installing them or something?
I think I'm in part 6 of a realm reborn according to the newgame+... And just got access to a dungeon called the steps of faith
quick question guys, if I already own all DLC but found shadowbringers collectors edition (digital key) for cheap online, if i bought this and entered the code on mogstation would it give me all the unlockables like mounts etc?
have you entered the code from steam on to your mogstation account to register it to your account
and then restarted the client??
ah yeah then you are almost at heavensward
Ah, cool

no, because you can't redeem Shadowbringers again
if you want the collectors items, you must buy it via mogstation
@little swift OH god that was it thank you so much
The upgrade is 20 bucks for the one expansion
I did not enter it
thats usually the problem 🙂

ahh yeah i meant for the "complete" one sorry, for the CE of all expansions
if I do level 50 extreme trials, I can only use abilitys up to level 50? or can I use the new abilities I learned on levels 52, 54?
for all mounts and stuff
I bought the complete edition but was waiting to get to lvl 60 before using the code, last week I oculd play without a play as free trial, is it going to be like that everyday now ?
No dlc purchases include game time, base game only
is it normal that every world in EU data center does not let me create any character? (test version if that changes anything)
it is weird yeah, eu servers have been packed for a bit
not any fault on your end though
No, we're experiencing unprecedented levels of new players due to a massive wow exodus among other reasons
its complete edition and i think its the same steam sold and the one at steam had 30 day play time extra
Also
yes because complete edition includes base game
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
9pm would still see a good amount of playwrs
kk thanks
okay, just wanted to make sure this isnt something on my side, i already know about the wow exodus haha
Did you know its bad enough that the official squenix store ran out of keys?
jep i randomly read that this afternoon haha
So yeah, perfect place for your username lol
kinda fits everywhere.. originated from wow back then however 😛
so now i just need to do story quests and it will unlock the rest of those aether currents right?
No, you're missing all the
currents
wiki is saying those quests are MSQ quests, is that wrong?
How much is the monthly sub in euro and pound ?
!faq subpriceeu
that is not correct
perhaps you are misreading it because those weren't mislabelled as MSQ when i doing it
send it just in case, maybe it got updated
Msq does not account for ALL quest currents
Usually get a few from msq and a few from unlocks (blues)
With one exception
I see, its saying the QUEST unlocks after the MSQ listed, I thought it meant the current unlocked after finishing that MSQ
You probably got the MSQ one. The others will be from sidequests in the zone.
yea i see what the wiki is saying now
There is only one zone that is only MSQ unlocks for it, and it's by design.
when do i have to use a recruiter code?
2/3rds of the way down has the details
Unless im thinking wrong, how come I cant put my pets skills onto their hotbar? Like it wont let me even drag them
and I never just see then use it
For SCH/SMN?
@indigo mural you cant do it from the pet hotbar directly, but you can do it from the actions menu iirc
Dragging the skills
Nvm, I found the solution haha. I was not looking at things right. I was trying to pull the skills directly instead of the Egi asssult
I discarded my scion armor a while back without thinking about it, is there a way to recover it?
From calamity salvager iirc
SO i want to farm that currency , only those dungeons drop it pls ?
No, lots of them do
so i can redeem the game and still enter the recruiter code?
if I queue up for a dungeon and get level synced, do I get much less XP vs queuing for a dungeon that's near my lvl?
you get the normal amount of exp for you at that level
which is why you only queue for the highest leveling dungeon and only do previous dungeons via roulette
i don't understand, so it's the same XP?
or it's less XP vs going for a dungeon near my level?
if you do a level 15 dungeon at level 80, you'll get the same numerical amount of EXP a level 15 player gets
ah
and you mean roulette because of bonus XP from daily? or does roulette fix XP even when redoing roulette with unneeded class like DPS and daily?
I'm not sure as I wasn't on the receiving end on it.
Roulettes apply a bonus once per day that scales exp gained up to your current level
Doing it more than once a day gives only the normal amount of experience that dungeon would give
yes as the period is before you purchase or redeem your first subscrption
So im at the gil cap again. Dont know what to buy anymore. Is there anything i can buy and sell for almost the same cost? The 2gil mats that sell for 1 are way too cheap and just clutter my inventory
But Adventurer In Need bonus applies every time you queue, so second and third roulette can be beneficial, mostly for tanks and healers
no
Don't stress the gil cap. Are you waiting for EW to pay?
AIN is never worth it by itself
AiN generally won't make up for the potential lack of exp you get, assuming you're queueing for leveling purposes
Hey is it possible to get BACK a previous ver of the relic weapon if your already at its max
you can buy replicas of previous stages
For Shadowbringers?
yes
nah, i wanted to hit the end of HW at least before buying..but gil cap and no option to group or fc is kinda annoying...might buy it sooner
Also waiting for a sale for consoles lol
what stats should i give my ShB relic for PLD?
regana sells them
Hey I am at stormblood main questline but I have yet to unlock the crystal tower questline
Where tho cause I’ve seen a place where you can buy copies but it’s only for the first form
do I need it for shadowbringer and later on?
there's a second check at 5.3
Hm?
but otherwise it's not required for 5.0
if you're only seeing the first stage then you haven't progress the relic weapon chain far enough to see the others
Okay @twilit arch !
if you want to start the 5.3 story it'll also require you to finish the Crystal Tower
Yeah I feel you. Don't stress the cap, though. You're not really missing out
is it a blue ! as well?
🙏 thanks! @twilit arch
I will find it in ARR areas?
yes since it's an ARR raid quest chain
I see
Starts at rev toll I believe?
thanks so I can fly there and search for the quest
Does anyone know how long it'll be till I can make a character on EU servers?
no idea what the quest name is though
is it best to unsync old content now, since damage will get reduced in the next expansion?
if you want to grind sth
probably true, just hurts to see it haha
btw, if i buy the complete edition now. Can i play DRK or GNB right now, or do i have to progress msq to the expansions?
MSQ for DRK, any job at 60 for GNB
i see, thats a bummer. Gonna complete HW then before buying. Thx mate
can someone help me run the first coil of bahamut? I want to see the cutscenes
When does fearie open up again
1-4 is super ez. 5 is not doable with DF in my experience
Yeah, i just wanna do it unsynced soi can go to second 1
The odin bad ass set only for warrior job?
yeah, iim not sure where either
#recruitment-light
or whatever datacenter role you hve
i don'thave all of the roles because channel bloat
so can't link them all
merci
the odin set armor from odin trial only for warrior job?
Usually it's just due to congestion. You can try in off-peak hours.
Where can I buy new rings? Trying to raise my item level to 43
Can someone explain this to me, I was looking at the eden savage items and saw that you can get treasure chests from it, but the site I looked at makes it confusing, does everyone get a chest from it, or is it people roll for the chest?
off peak does mean what
Marketboard in any major city
you roll for the items in the chest. everyone receives a book from clearing
Thank you.
are there two new classes next expansion?
Any Tank.
Awesome
!faq savageloot
Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion
Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.
Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.
The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests
hours where traffic is lower.
Savage Loot comes from chests.
Reaper and Sage
how do we get to llsabard from doma?
the map doesnt exactly work with how we get there
Anyone Know if i buy Complete Edition from a 3rd party website does it include 30 days of game time?
It does, provided the 3rd party is legit and you aren't scammed
doman enclave*
CDKEYS or GAMIVO you know which is more legit?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
we take a boat
we'll know how we're getting ilsabard when endwalker comes out
There's a trusted 3rd party pinned due to a sale
gmg's sale ended
Oh, shame
Oops
is black mage hard
how come
Movement
movement
it has a ton of movement tools and is very comfu
but you have to map them out per fight
nevermind
and not drop enochian
Like i'm not sure what you are expecting us to say, we get to gangos via boat but that doesn't necessarily mean that's how we are getting there in endwalker
can i turn off the hotbar numbers?
Yes
No I don't remember where the setting is
ty
actually get to grangos via airship
Dancer, Machinist, and Bard are supposed to do less damage, right? 'Cause they buff too?
but like who knows if the area underneath the map actually allows for us to travel via land to it
Can someone invite me to aether eureka discord?
partial that, partially ranged tax. they have no special gimmick to deal with. can free move for mechanics, don't have cast times, and don't have positionals
Machinists don't buff either, they are a selfish dps that bring little in terms of rdps
Ah, I noticed Machinists were lowest on FFLogs. So they're a selfish DPS, with the least amount of DPS?
i mean they still do fine in raids
compared to blm and sam, yes they are the lowest of selfish dps jobs
bc we have full uptime
because again, they don't have any gimicks to deal with
they can freely move, no positionals, no cast times
I meant, they were lower in personal DPS compared to Dancer and Bard too.
Mch out dps dancer and brd in personal dps
Oh, maybe I'm using the site wrong. How do I see that?
Adps
you're looking at Rdps, change to Adps
Rdps is personal dps + buffs given
If its in a vendor it'll say shop selling price
Otherwise you need to go check on the marketboard
Ah, so they do bring the least to a raid, but deal the most damage of the ranged.
I get it now.
Exactly
Can i check it with the price with an other way then marketboard?
They're not as selfish as sam or blm imo as they still share the ranged "shield" buff
Is the aggro list similar to who is doing the most damage
😐
Healing generates more aggro than dps and tank stance basically ignores that
exterior wall will be lost if replaced?
No you get the old one back
But what about comparing just the dps players
Probably but in the words of full metal jacket: you are all equally worthless
aggro list is not good for telling who's doing good dps and who's not
especially if someone's died
As far as the aggro list is concerned
Someone has the list of benefit between a complete account and a free trials ?
Why is Samurai the highest aDPS, but middle of the pack rDPS, but BLM stays top?
Whats the best way to farm gc seals?
historically BLM gets the buffs in most standard comps
Ah, so anytime there's both, it defaults to BLM?
yeah something like that
!faq freetrial
could also be more BLM mains than SAM mains parsing these past two weeks
BLM was hard meta back in e1-4 so every high-end static had a BLM main on it
Fflogs is not the holy word of yoshi p, its a fraction of a fraction of people playing the game
@rigid panther do your GC logs until you can do expert deliveries. Expert deliveries let you turn in any piece of dungeon gear for seals, once you can do this just greed literally everything in dungeons
if you're not sergeant second class or higher, then do your grand company hunting log, and/or fates. if you are sergeant second class or higher, then turn in dungeon gear for seals
What is spirit bonding and is it anything important, my armour has 100% of it and idk if its special or not?
At 100% you convert spirit bond to a piece of materia
How can I do that?
When can I change class form Conjurer to White Mage?
Anyone knows the name of the skirt and shoes?
Right click, extract materia
Can i somehow put Sprint on my R3 button?
Far Eastern Maiden's Bottoms and Boots @opal swan
@marsh ferry level 30, make sure you do all your cnj quests. You also need the story at a certain point
it doesn't give me an option to extract when I right click it, do I have to unlock it or be a certain level to do it? im lvl 45 btw
@shadow barn And where/how should I do it?
you need to do the quest "forging the spirit" to unlock the ability to extract materia
You might. There should be some materia quests available near black brush station
Just make sure you're doing the quests from the conjurer's guild. At level 30 they will provide you with a quest that will lead you to the WHM trainer
Any advantage by being paid player before lvl 60 ? Waht are retainer exactly ?
alright thanks, ill hang onto them for when I do the quest for it
Read kaelwryn's reply, he was a bit more detailed
heyho 🙂 will I lose The Road to 70 buff when I hit 70 on one job? Or will it stay active for other non-70 classes?
More than 200k gil cap, can be in a free company, which let's you get bonus exp, and let's you purchase things from market board (auction house) and trade with other players
Paid players gets all of the social interaction stuff, a much higher money cap, retainers, and access to market boards. Retainers are your banks, item storage, and means to post items to the market board.
Thanks, so I guess I should do use my code now instead of waiting to hit lvl 60.
It sticks around for 90 days from character creation and buffs all jobs under level 70.
For pre-ordering endwalker, how early will we be able to play the new classes and races
If you think it's worth it. Remember you have to start paying the sub 30 days after you activate
It says early release
November 19th
Early access begins the Friday before official release date.
So only the weekend XD
I still have my free Fantasia for new characters I’m saving it for that male vierra
Are the chocobokeep only good to go to ulda ?
question about mods (if that is allowed) can i use a skin mod that would make my viera bit more muscular in the belly area without downloading a ton of armor mods? or is it bound to the armor?

the chocobo keep are like flightpoints in wow. you can use them to travel faster between the stations
Does white mage share any levels with any class?
yes druid
We strongly discourage trolling in this channel. People come here for actual help. If you want to troll, go to #general-discussion or something.
excuse me? its the truth....if you see that as trolling...raises hands
then im backing off
does it matter which order i do bind coils of bahamut?
doing them in order is best bc of the story
yes druid
No, you don't even have to do 1-4 to continue the story
How is that not a troll answer?
That’s cold I would fk with a Druid class too
he's the same guy who claimed every class could be played on two hotbars
I am a level 60 White Mage, and I am trying to apply glamour whose min level is 60 WHM, but the glamour dresser is showing an X, why?

how can I get alchemist lvl 80 af
It needs to be White Mage gear
druid iirc is the name for conjurer in german
🖕
it is tho
And the gear you're trying to glam over has to be of the same or higher equippable level
yo, chill dudes
ah
i guess you can argue druid isn't a troll answer if you consider false info a troll and druid is so easily seen as not an actual answer so it can't be a troll maybe?
So quick question
its not a troll assuming they are german
Does Balmung have shorter queue times?
im a german player indeed
I heard that to play ast on controller, some macros might help
its a language miscommunication/misunderstanding. thats it
Good evening, at eureka in the log book I have to defeat 40 living dead or ashes but I don't know where these monsters are located, could someone help me? Thank you !
Anywhere where I can check for some?
Most likely only a placement macro for earthly star
what's druid in german for in ffxiv
The aoe one?
druid = conjurer
Ye
What’s the scholar and astrologian translation in German? I’m curious
If you don't have one, IIRC you have to angle the camera to aim it, it's weirs
does the next expansion raise the level cap?
how do i buy mounts from the market board? there is no star symbol
less etymology and more a choice in translation
Yes, to 90
localization moment
infight i pm you later
Haha ok
how do I get other mounts the standard one is ugly af
they're under misc., it's annoying
does anyone know when the battle at castrum litore comes back?
Hey guys, I'm going to be starting to play healer. Which has the least amount of skills/is easiest for a first time healer?
Oh, like DRK one, I get it
It's under the miscellaneous section
which tank, healer, and top 2 dps have the most buffs or utility in the game?
60 minute timer, lowered by skirmishes and CEs
I’m barely hitting 43 XD, when I hit 50 can I go straight to ishgard to unlock ast or do I have to complete 2.1-2.4 patch quest
You need to do 2.1 to 2.55
all 80 post ARR msq
!faq ultility
so after the timer for castrum goes to 0 it takes 1 hour for it to reappear for new people to join?
tanks: none give a buff
healers: astro is more buff oriented with cards, scholar gives one too. their damages even out
dps: dragoon with 2 team buffs. everyone else has one buff/debuff usually for the team but i'd argue second is ninja because of the raw damage it gives
You will not miss when you're going to Ishgard
yes after castrum is beaten, it will have a minimum of 60 minutes
shortened by CE and skirmishes
WHM or SCH for first time healer? Very nervous bout healing
!faq utility
we do not know how much but it is usually quick
That’s a lot of quest
Indeed
Oh, speaking of which, how do ast cards work?
white mage is pretty straight forward
So ast starts off at 50?
no
30
ast starts at 30
okay, do you have to stay in bojza for while waiting for the hour to pass or can you leave bojza while waiting?
I just draw em? Cause I noticed that all have the same effect at lvl 30
Thanks never healed in tab target MMO before so quite nervous
Dam 30?
i would stay in bozja. technically, you could leave and rejoin the same instance but that is highly improbable if you stay outside for too long
That’s gonna take me a while to get up to 50 to do the MSQ
okay, thanks for heads up
Yeah tho you can instantly catch back up in lvls as healers have almost instant queues in dungeons

You can get the ones from ew

you can use /return probably
Cant
He shouldn't have unlocked them yet
what are these icons on some of the items?
well this is certainly an unusual case
can’t we trade items now?

yes
Some items are untradable
Someone wanna trade an extra pair?
Like the earrings
What dang they though ahead
you can't trade em
@kindred walrus can you not turn around or anything?
I can but i just can't get out
So for ast cards, any rule of thumb to which use on which when?
In that case I apologize. I thought that DE followed the same naming conventions for WHM as EN, JP and FR do.
im a level 53 sam and ive just noticed im not gaining any xp from anything? anyone know why
Green boarders on melees, purple boarders on ranged
use the melee cards on melee, use ranged cards on ranged. play on cd unless boss is going immune/dying within a few seconds
its a blue border for melee
