[mossy moss]

what about ultimate raids then

is that worth it then

?

for the cosmetics at least

[twilit arch]

ultimate raids can't be unsync

and those are also for the challenge, and bragging rights

as well as the weapon glam/titles

[proper cipher]

There are some cosmetics from them

[mossy moss]

that sounds awesome

[proper cipher]

It's why Glamour is the true end game

[mossy moss]

i mean, let's be honest here

[gloomy bridge]

Do you guys know if it's possible to hide unused slots? Like 6-7 on my image?

[mossy moss]

being better than everyone else and getting a reward for it is the true endgame

[low sun]

Yea in the hotbar settings you can turn that on

[proper cipher]

Ya I tend not to cos it annoys me

[gloomy bridge]

Thank you!

[proper cipher]

Your character looking better than everyone else is the true end goal

[mossy moss]

pretty much, like in wow, if you cleared mythic ny'alotha for example

and got the mount out of it

people instantly knew what you did

and acknowledged it

[proper cipher]

And if the only way to do that is to be better than the vast majority then so be it.

Kind of the thing you get

Plus title

[mossy moss]

That looks cool dude

Is there a staff like that?

for black mages

or are these weapons like, just for a type instead of class specific

[faint flare]

There's one for every job (except newly added ones) for each ultimate

so reaper won't have one until a new ultimate releases?

That's so much worse than the sword in my opinion xD

[proper cipher]

terrible image it's not glowing for some reason

[twilit arch]

that's because you linked the ARR relic weapon

not the ultimate version

[copper plaza]

What is the max level for starting edition?

[mossy moss]

are all of them so shiny?

[twilit arch]

ye

[faint flare]

The album I linked is for the most recent ultimate

[slate nacelle]

Fishing just got so much better with spear fishing omg

[faint flare]

And Yes they're all ultra shiny

Ultimate bahamut is all Golden, UwW is thst blue glow, Alexander is white/silver/gold with Cogs

[mossy moss]

Okay, now i have a question about classes, i currently want to be a black mage( i know how to get to be one and so on) but when i'll get bored of the class (unlikely, but i'll definetely want an alt class) is there any other class that feels like it

[faint flare]

What exactly do you want the similarities

Cause each job is vastly different types

[proper cipher]

I mean Arcanist is another MAgic caster

[mossy moss]

pretty much just pure dps, no healing or buffing

[faint flare]

Samurai

And machinist for ranged physical

[stray osprey]

what's the fastest way to get grand company seals and therefor promotions?

[mossy moss]

machinist is the one with the robot right?

[faint flare]

Yes

[mossy moss]

and is samurai the one with three different abillity combos

or is that ninja?

[faint flare]

It is yes

[severe brook]

am i meant to appraise all my fragments in bozja

[faint flare]

Can sell extras you don't want

[low flax]

turning in gear for seals

[stuck fractal]

Is there available level 80 gear that can be bought with tomestones?

[stray osprey]

how do I do that?

[faint flare]

Crystarium for allegory and cryptlurker for relevation

[modest igloo]

not poetics, but theres a guide in the pins about lvl 80 gear

[stuck fractal]

Thank you! 🙂

[mossy moss]

What about dancer, is that accessible for free trial

[faint flare]

No

[mossy moss]

how does it play?

i mean, if i'm gonna enjoy the game up to 60 i'mma buy endwalker 100%

[proper cipher]

Dancers quite party buff focused

[faint flare]

Easiest dps job, buffs 1 guy with permanent damage, and occasional crit/dh buff

And a 2min party buff

[modest igloo]

DPS has the lowest personal dps but makes it up with buffs

[mossy moss]

so pretty much spam buffs on cd

and deal as much damage as possible

[faint flare]

Every job does that

It's rarely correct to hold Cooldowns

Unless specified scenarios

[modest igloo]

the Steps still give those big number dopamine

[mossy moss]

so it's not like in world of warcraft where you have one bloodthirst

and you have to use it at the right time

[faint flare]

More you use it, more you use it in the fight

[vast ferry]

is there a way to dismiss a summon

[proper cipher]

DPS generally don't hold cooldowns

You can right click and away

[faint flare]

Getting 5 uses of a buff is better than 4 uses of a buff

By 100%

[mossy moss]

what did you summon?

[vast ferry]

thanks

caribicle

[plush hound]

The majority of DNC buffs are part of their combat rotation.

[proper cipher]

Tanks and healers hold some cooldowns. DPS not so much

[vast ferry]

it does basically no damage and spams aoes when i have none puling agro onto me

[slate nacelle]

I need to catch dagandshi and it shows this and I don't get it at all please help ;-;

[faint flare]

Cause it's the aoe pet

[mossy moss]

so, i just have to think about who to buff, if not myself and do my casual rotation

[faint flare]

It only has aoes

[mossy moss]

as well as spam cds on cooldown

[vast ferry]

but the aoe only does chip damage

[faint flare]

Cause it's an aoe

[mossy moss]

that sounds so much cooler

than world of warcraft cds xD

[faint flare]

If you hit 3 things than it does more damage in total

[mossy moss]

"don't use it now, it has 4 minutes of cooldown"

[faint flare]

Since 3x 5 is better than 1 X 10

[proper cipher]

Against single opponents it's chip yes but hit groups and it's better. There also other ones you get later

A tank and a more single target one

[little swift]

WoW encounter duration isn't the same length either

[mystic tapir]

ok... GC Seals... what good to spend them on? any unique mounts or items to get?

[vast ferry]

i plan to wait until i get an aoe before utilizing it sine currently it just makes it easier for me to die

[mossy moss]

yeah i heard that encounters in ff14 are longer

[faint flare]

Average 9mins

Longer if you get to enrage

[mossy moss]

and i'm in love with the limit break system, at least from what i've seen on streams for now

[proper cipher]

No trash mobs either

[plush hound]

At the start of the instance or whenever you group with others, you will apply a toggle onto one other party member. Any buff that you apply for yourself also applies to that person.

[vast ferry]

it could at least pull agro to itself instead of me when it attacks

[faint flare]

That was an intentional change

Pets can't tank anymore

[proper cipher]

It used to but now it doesn't and in exchange cannot die

[low sun]

You only have to choose another dance partner (the guy you share buffs with) if he dies or you realize he's not doing much DPS at all (it's usually best to give your buffs to the highest DPS)

[faint flare]

Though if pets did ever steal aggro from you before, then you were kinda bad

[mossy moss]

is that most classes with buffs?

5.45 Raid Utility & Synergy Cheat Sheet

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/Uj5ndur.png

[proper cipher]

I had the misfortune of doing the level 50 SMN quest right at that point where it changed. SO it was a pain cos Titan wasn't very useful anymore.

[mossy moss]

like, toggle a person and big dick the boss?

[proper cipher]

Still was the most useful for it. But was more annoying

[vast ferry]

it's more about the aoe spam pulling multiple enemies onto me when i can only deal with 1 at a time

[faint flare]

Titan is lowkey better

He actually does something

[proper cipher]

hit the mob yourself and lead it away from the group.

Also if a mob has yellow lines coming out of it then it auto aggroes the full group

[leaden ginkgo]

how do I change FOV? cant find anywhere in settings

[vast ferry]

i tried that actually but as soon as i hit a mob it uses an aoe then pulls all nearby enemies so if i want to avoid getting swarmed i need to only attack enemies that are seperate

[proper cipher]

Generally not much point in farming mobs unless it's during quests in which case their designed such that your level should be able to deal with it

[upbeat veldt]

Hello! If me and my friend spent all our money (10mil gil) on raiding gear would we see a positive roi from doing high level activities?

[proper cipher]

Hunting log is the only reason and that's pretty easy

[low sun]

There is FFXIV-Zoomhack but it modifies memory so it's probably bannable if detected, no ingame setting unfortunately (it does support ultrawide monitors, so you can "pay2win" an ultrawide monitor...)

[modest igloo]

at this stage once you get 510 gear theres no more raid gear you can buy with gil

its all other currencies

[proper cipher]

You mean more gil back? not really. unless you got some good drops that are tradeable

[slate nacelle]

Helpp

[leaden ginkgo]

oh damn unlucky then

[mossy moss]

you can always scroll out

[leaden ginkgo]

i do have a 1440p monitor so at least theres that

[leaden ginkgo]

yea ik but even fully scrolled out its too little for my liking

but gotta get used to i guess

[mossy moss]

tbh, same

[upbeat veldt]

@modest igloo is there another pre-raid set I can acquire that won't bankrupt me?

[mossy moss]

but it's whatever

[stuck fractal]

from what I understand. Allegory < Exarchic < Revelation (gears)?

[tropic flame]

this should help for gearing

[proper cipher]

1)Go underwater in Yanxia's Glittering Basin just off the Mercantile Docks (x.11,y.35)
2)Farm the level 70 nodes with a Large Gig head for Icthyosaur, it takes around 8 to get the node to spawn. You won't see it unless you have "Truth of the Oceans" on, and it isn't automatically applied unless you're 70. There's no stress here, just keep doing this until the node spawns.
3)Equip the small gig head before taking on the "unspoiled teeming waters" node and make sure not to have "salvage" or "collect" off just in case.
4)If you get any fish that's not a dafangshi, use "Veteran Trade" to increase your chance of grabbing it. Don't hesitate to use "Calm Waters" if it doesn't look like you'll get the 3 HQ that you need.
5)If you're having problems getting the HQ version of the fish, you can always level past 70, gear up, and then come back.

[upbeat veldt]

thank you

[cursive mulch]

Hiya, is there any way to buy Shadowbringers on its own? When I go to buy it, it takes me to the preorder of Endwalkers

I want to play as bunny wife now

[low sun]

this is what the fov looks like on ultrawide with max zoom

sry wrong @, i meant @leaden ginkgo

[leaden ginkgo]

damn nice

[proper cipher]

Preordering endwalker should give you access to all teh expacs

[tropic flame]

yes but only when endwalker is out

[cursive mulch]

I was worried that I won't be able to access them until EW releases though

[mossy moss]

nvm she saw it

[cursive mulch]

I want to play as a Viera now

[tropic flame]

you cant play the expacs before EW releases

there fore you cant access the viera before EW releases if you preorder

[cursive mulch]

so you can't just buy shadowbringers on its own now?

[tropic flame]

you can

[proper cipher]

Oh. You can on steam I know. Unsure about Mogstation

[tropic flame]

im not sure about ordering stuff, but maybe a mentor can help with it :<

[mossy moss]

wait, so if i buy endwalker the only way to play all the expansions before it is to wait until it releases

aka november, if not longer

[tropic flame]

yes

[cursive mulch]

yeah

[proper cipher]

If you don't have them already yes

[cursive mulch]

thats why i didn't want to preorder endwalker

its a bit of a silly system

[tropic flame]

yeah mog needs a revamp for sure

[low sun]

better to buy shadowbringers and preorder endwalker in a few months or whatever

(if u wanna play before november)

[mossy moss]

i mean once it releases it won't matter so i guess i'll wait until it comes out i guess

[cursive mulch]

if i could figure out how to buy SW i would

[unborn pebble]

Hi guys I'm an old player playing free trial for some chill, looking for some people to chat with while player. I'm on Moodle

Moogle*

[cursive mulch]

but the mogstation takes me to the endwalker preorder even when i click on shadowbringers

[twilit arch]

https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_EU/product/527945/final-fantasy-xiv-shadowbringers-pc-download

[unborn pebble]

While playing*

[twilit arch]

assuming you're EU

[mossy moss]

cuz i can still level all classes to 60 and wait for it

[cursive mulch]

yeah i'm eu

well, UK

[low sun]

that link is for eu

[proper cipher]

We're still Europe

Continent wise

[cursive mulch]

so that link should work for me right

[proper cipher]

Yes

[cursive mulch]

alright, thank you all for your help

[twilit arch]

https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_GB/product/527935/final-fantasy-xiv-shadowbringers-pc-download

[cursive mulch]

its a very confusing system lol

[twilit arch]

should be the UK version i think

[mossy moss]

it's great britain

[proper cipher]

It's not the greatest trying to buy it

[mossy moss]

so yes, it shoul

d

[cursive mulch]

oh thats perfect

thank you so much @twilit arch

[proper cipher]

I just bought it on steam.

That does mean I have to buy all future content from steam though

[mossy moss]

how do i check time played?

[cursive mulch]

my licence is with the windows version tho, or doesn't it matter with dlc?

[random saffron]

./playtime

[tired rover]

Out of curiosity - Is there a place where there are FF14 and/or FF14 FC Discord Server Templates?
(think this a better channel to ask in)

[low sun]

the link from above is for the non-steam windows version, you just cant mix steam and non-steam in any way

[leaden ginkgo]

Got a Palace of the Dead question. So I want to repeat floors 50-60, how do I do that? Do I have to keep making a new save everytime? Also is there an easier way to access the character inventory instead of having to go through the options menu everytime? Can you put pomanders on your hot bar?

[proper cipher]

If you get the windows licence then cannot buy via steam and vice versa

[mossy moss]

by character inventory do you mean character sheet or you gear sheet?

cuz if it's character sheet, press C unless you unbound it it should open

[vast ferry]

is there any way to prevent your controler from targeting friendly npcs

[wispy forge]

still fresh so forgive the simple questions but is there a way to tell which abilities can/cant be stunned? and what does interrupt do vs stunning? Interrupt havent done me anything good yet

[leaden ginkgo]

The Palace of the dead character inventory

[proper cipher]

theres a command in game for time played I believe
/playtime

I think

[mossy moss]

I have no idea what Palace of the dead even is, so i shall refrain from answering

and yes, it is /playtime

i tried and it works

[cursive mulch]

okay so i think I have a new issue, I may have just bought SW on the wrong account

[mossy moss]

you have to play on that account now

[tired rover]

Have fun callin SE - Avg hold time to talk to a person is like 60 min

[mossy moss]

unless you wanna buy it again

[wispy forge]

does that go for stun too?

[proper cipher]

stun is just another form of interrupt

IIRC

[wispy forge]

ah fair enough 🙂 thanks ill be on the lookout for the outline thank you so much!

[warm snow]

Stun works on both

[twilit arch]

stun won't work on the pulsing cast bars

[warm snow]

But more enemies are immune to stun

Especially after arr

[warm snow]

It does, but only if they're not stun immune

[twilit arch]

in ARR maybe

but after that it does not

[open ember]

Just use interrupt

Or interject

[twilit arch]

those cast bars are specifically for interject/head graze

[mossy moss]

Okay, now i have a question about a black mage passive

how do i know that this passive is active?

[faint flare]

You get the buff

[plush hound]

Your thunder spell will glow

[faint flare]

!buff Thundercloud

[zinc orbit]

**Thundercloud**

Next Thunder spell will add its full damage over time amount to its initial damage, require no time to cast, and cost no MP.

Powered by XIVAPI

[mossy moss]

so pretty much it glows and i just press it again

[stable grail]

do i have to use same job i accepted the quest for, timeworn relic farm, in DR?

[twilit arch]

no

[faint flare]

You use Thundercloud before the dot falls off or before the proc falls off

Only in aoe so you use it immediately

To give that gcd more value

[mossy moss]

okay so Thundercloud 2, as soon as it procs

thundercloud 1 when it's about to end

[faint flare]

There's no 1 or 2

It's ANY of your next thunder spells

[mossy moss]

i meant the thunder abillity

since there's apparently 4 different versions of the thunder abillity xD

[plush hound]

Thunder 1/3 for ST, Thunder 2/4 for AoE

[twilit arch]

thunder 1 upgrades into 3, thunder 2 upgrades into 4

[faint flare]

Only 2 cause Thunder 1 becomes 3

And 2 become 4

[mossy moss]

oh, okay

so for singletarget i use it when it's close to ending the buff / proc or about to die on the target and aoe i just spam it on proc

or did i understand it poorly

[open ember]

You should be using Thunder 1/3 for only single target
And only 2/4 for aoe

No reason to use 2/4 except for trash pulls

[mossy moss]

i get that much yes, i'm interested about the proc of the passive

and when to use that passive proc

[twilit arch]

generally you want to use the thunder proc when either the dot is expiring or the proc is

and for aoe, yes use as you get them

[warm snow]

On controller I tend to split my aoes and single target skills between hotbars and just swap accordingly

[mossy moss]

ok so i did understand it right and just confused the other people when talking about it

cool xD

[mossy moss]

also i play on keyboard

the only mmorpg i ever played on controller is warframe(not really an mmorpg, but it's whatever)

and i'd prefer it to stay that way, even though i still play warframe with a controller from time to time

[open ember]

Just play what works for you

There's no right or wrong way to play, either keyboard or controller

[mossy moss]

that is my intention, yes

maybe i'll play on controller when i'll be doing some unsynced extremes

but other than that i'll be sticking to my keyboar

d

[knotty lily]

Said it before, but I've seen the Producer (Yoshi) use both at the same time - PS4 in left hand and a mouse in his right, at Fanfest. Its crazy what you can do with controls in XIV, some creative solutions out there

[slate nacelle]

Can anyone help me on how to catch dafangshi?

[oak ice]

Catch 7 Ichtyons and pray

[proper cipher]

1)Go underwater in Yanxia's Glittering Basin just off the Mercantile Docks (x.11,y.35)
2)Farm the level 70 nodes with a Large Gig head for Icthyosaur, it takes around 8 to get the node to spawn. You won't see it unless you have "Truth of the Oceans" on, and it isn't automatically applied unless you're 70. There's no stress here, just keep doing this until the node spawns.
3)Equip the small gig head before taking on the "unspoiled teeming waters" node and make sure not to have "salvage" or "collect" off just in case.
4)If you get any fish that's not a dafangshi, use "Veteran Trade" to increase your chance of grabbing it. Don't hesitate to use "Calm Waters" if it doesn't look like you'll get the 3 HQ that you need.
5)If you're having problems getting the HQ version of the fish, you can always level past 70, gear up, and then come back.

[slate nacelle]

Been here for maybe an hour ;/

[oak ice]

That's fishing for you, I hope you're underwater spearfishing

[slate nacelle]

I am

I am

[oak ice]

Okay, good, then you just need to get lucky

And the Ichtyosaurs need large spear head

[slate nacelle]

Yeah I'm lucky

[bronze cargo]

Will i be able to use my mount if i take on a new job and start at lvl 1?

[faint flare]

Yes

[bronze cargo]

@faint flarethx

[oak ice]

Getting to 70 and equipping yellow scrip gear might help, but it's still gonna be RNG dependent

[slate nacelle]

I am 70 already just from being here that long

[mossy moss]

is fishing a job or can any class do it?

[twilit arch]

fishing it its own class

[oak ice]

It is its own job

[mossy moss]

that's cool

[slate nacelle]

Just like every other class

or well job

[mossy moss]

so it has it's own rotation as well i presume?

[proper cipher]

Yes

[oak ice]

If by rotation you mean throw the line in the water and press a button when the fish hooks, yes

[golden cosmos]

What is a good level to start doing eureka?

[slate nacelle]

I'm gonna go insane

[oak ice]

Whenever you feel like it, it's 100% optional content now

[twilit arch]

welcome to fishing :' )

[mossy moss]

Does it also have a skinning rotation and such?

Like pretty much preparing food

[proper cipher]

Nope just the gathering

[oak ice]

No, just some buffs to help you catch them

[twilit arch]

culinarian is a thing

[slate nacelle]

It's just one of the many jobs that I'ma put at 80 and never play ever again ;-;

[proper cipher]

Culinarian is the cooking crafter

[mossy moss]

Oh so the culinarian does all of that stuff

When it comes to cooking and preparing fish ofc

[oak ice]

Fishing is extremely non taxing if you don't count the insanity from fighting 5 layers of rng

[mossy moss]

It can't be that bad

Since you don't habe to force yourself into fishing in the first place

Have*

[proper cipher]

Ocean fishing is pretty easy. It's onyl when you start hunting for the rare catches it becomes a bit of an RNG pain

[oak ice]

"in 9 days" is the next window this fish is available

[slate nacelle]

Yeah but It's one of the things you wanna do is lvl everything to 80 and do the class quests

[mossy moss]

Why?

[slate nacelle]

Fun

[mossy moss]

Achievement points?

[slate nacelle]

It's one more thing to do at the end

[proper cipher]

Bragging rights. And a mount. Although that might be combat roles only

[twilit arch]

combat only

for the amaro

[mossy moss]

Wait does black mage get their own mount then?

[twilit arch]

nah

[oak ice]

Nope

[knotty lily]

Not really no - only tanks get their own mounts

[proper cipher]

Nope. Tanks get one.

[knotty lily]

(To encourage people to play tank jobs)

[leaden ginkgo]

So in the over world I see people with chocobos that are fighting along side them. Can you get this feature from the quest called “My Feisty Little Chocobo”?

[twilit arch]

you get a mount for leveling all combat jobs to 80

[oak ice]

Only tanks for doing a lot of content, and getting all of them to 80

[chrome iron]

assuming you have instant q pops and rested exp, is spamming dungeons still slower than bozjan for leveling?

[mossy moss]

Do classes you dont play get rested exp when you dont play them

Or do you have to afk on them specifically

[proper cipher]

The reated exp is on the character

[twilit arch]

no

[knotty lily]

Rested exp is shared - its just for "You" no matter what class youre on

[slate nacelle]

The rested exp is shared between all, if you get exp on one class the rested exp goes away

[mossy moss]

Oh okay

[chrome iron]

so spamming dungeons is faster than bozjan if your rested with instant q pops?

[twilit arch]

yea

[chrome iron]

cool, thanks

[knotty lily]

Eat food and use those FC buffs, do it all!

[leaden ginkgo]

How do I get a chocobo to fight along side me?

[proper cipher]

equip the earring

Theres a quest. Then use Gyshal greens for a half hour summon

This quest is available upon reaching level 30. Speak with Docette in the South Shroud

[knotty lily]

Looks like the quest is "My Fiesty Little Chocobo" indeed - have to have unlocked your Chocobo mount first.

[slate nacelle]

And then you use these

Where do I go get lvl 70 gear for gatheres again?

[open rivet]

Can I use removed actions as macroicon still?
e.g. arcanist's Shadow Flare (which npcs still use)?

[knotty lily]

Rhalgrs Reach if youre looking to buy Scrip gear

[reef quiver]

So you can only use 1 crypt lurker ring?

[slate nacelle]

I haave to, I've been here for 2 hours

[twilit arch]

fairly certain no

[twilit arch]

can have one augmented and one non augmented, for now

[cosmic abyss]

are mounts account wide?

[twilit arch]

not all no

[slate nacelle]

Do you know the location

[reef quiver]

Gotcha thanks

[twilit arch]

certain mogstation mounts are, and they are labelled as such

[cosmic abyss]

only storebought?

[knotty lily]

Ah yeah by the summoning bell, bottom left side of the map i think

[plush hound]

Yes, because if it can be earned in game for one, it can be earned in game for another.

[proper cipher]

Yes only storebough

[twilit arch]

pretty much only certain mogstation mounts and collector's edition mounts are gonna be acct bound

[cosmic abyss]

righto

[low flax]

why did exarchic armor increase in price so steeply overnight lol (on aether)

[slate nacelle]

Oof

[twilit arch]

did you do the quest "Go west, craftsman"?

its in mor dhona

[plush hound]

Probably due to a lot of new people hitting 80 and needing gear.

[low flax]

it went up SO much fr

[knotty lily]

I noticed it too, very tempted to catch up a patch of crafting and make it myself haha. The WoW exodus means huge demand

[upper oyster]

Can I ask kinda newbie questions here?

[low flax]

yeah

[slate nacelle]

Don't see any quest in Mor Dhona with that name so I might have..?

[twilit arch]

hm

[upper oyster]

I keep seeing YouTubers with long lists of Duty Roulette options .., but I always just have one or two

[leaden ginkgo]

so the benchmark is kinda ass, what does the number even mean or the "high" or "fairly high"

[twilit arch]

check your completed section of the quest journal to make sure you've done it

[upper oyster]

I’m level 54 scholar in patch 2.1 Msq now

[leaden ginkgo]

give me frame times and actual frame rate

[plush hound]

Until you hit 50 that's about right.

[slate nacelle]

Idk how to check

[knotty lily]

You get more as time goes by - after level 50, level 60, level 80... etc. You probably have Leveling and Guildhest or something?
Theres Trial, Alliance, 50/60/70, Expert (80), etc.

[proper cipher]

But you get a nice score and a general description

[leaden ginkgo]

still would like to see the actual numbers

[sour pumice]

To unlock flying in HW do i need to attune to all aether current on all area ?

[proper cipher]

isn't that helpful at all

Yes

[oak ice]

You get a score right in the image

[twilit arch]

click on the completed button at the top of the quest journal. there should be a button to the right that's a glass icon that will let you search names

[proper cipher]

It unlocks for the area you're in

[sour pumice]

Ah i see thanks !

[knotty lily]

All aether currents AND collect all 5 from quests, sidequests, msq.
It will be like this for all zones going forward

[upper oyster]

@knotty lily I see, that’s good to know, ty!

[open rivet]

for each area individually, yes

[slate nacelle]

I guess I have not but I don't see it on Mor Dhona

[twilit arch]

ok then you probably need to go to ishgard and look for the quest "inscrutable tastes"

[still gate]

is there a list of kupobot commands somewhere?

[twilit arch]

https://kupobot.com/commands/

[still gate]

you are a legend, thanks

[slender sphinx]

Do I have to equip everything for fashion report before getting judged?

or do glamour plates work

[faint flare]

Both work

Glamour or equipped, either or

[slender sphinx]

thanks!

[misty garnet]

Has Square said anything about whether we'll get that Hyur midlander stubble from EW Benchmark Trailer in-game at some point? I saw that the benchmark character creator doesn't even have it, it's only available through the premade character.

[twilit arch]

As for demand for Derplander's stubble that was in high demand, we are actually experimenting on various methods of implementation right now, and it's quite forced...but we are indeed testing out various methods right now so please stay tuned for further updates.
from the 14hr broadcast

[misty garnet]

Alright, cool, thanks! I'm glad I don't have to work on that game lol, how much spaghetti do they have to work with when adding new facial hair customization offers so much trouble.

[grave stump]

Does anyone else have an issue tabbing in an out of ffxiv?

[misty garnet]

I do in full-screen, but not with borderless windowed

[grave stump]

Oh I'll try out borderless window

[wispy forge]

Should i use materia on my armor while I level, and how do I apply materia in the first place?

[twilit arch]

nah, can worry about materia later at endgame

[modest igloo]

nah you can wait to lvl 80

[twilit arch]

generally change gear too often to really make use of materia tbh

[misty garnet]

There's no need, but if you want to you unlock it at level 19 in Central Thanalan

[proper cipher]

Theres a quest to get it but tis not important till endgame

[knotty lily]

Dont have to use materia on your armor while you level, you replace it too quickly.
When you get to endgame, you can use a Materia Melder NPC in cities to affix materia to your ghear

[twilit arch]

plus if you're higher lvl than the content you're running then you're getting sync'd down anyway so its moot

[wispy forge]

what about these random ones i got from MSQ. should I use them? I assume in 80 there are some better ones i want

[knotty lily]

Note that to affix materia by yourself you must have that crafted class leveled to the appropriate level too - takes a lotta work

[dense mulch]

How does one know when a Medium/ Large plot comes available? Is it that difficult these days? I literally saw my neighbor moved from a Medium to a Large right away the other day..🤔😐

[twilit arch]

can either vendor or if not free trial, can sell on the marketboard

[plush hound]

Unless you're on a trial account you can put up the red and purple ones on the MB for a small profit.

[twilit arch]

some of the low level materia can sell decently

[plush hound]

usually because of people working on their Zodiacs.

[bright wagon]

are Blade's Weapons Best in slot as of now?

[knotty lily]

"Never" - once a house is vacated or demolished, it gets a random timer for when its purchasable again.
Difficult? Absolutely, because you could be fighting 20 other people to spam-click the "Buy" button for either hours or days. I understand almost every server is FULL of houses right now.

[faint flare]

Yes

[twilit arch]

yes

[knotty lily]

This could change in Endwalker when they release a whole new housing ward but for now, its not easy

[charred pewter]

why is my zenith rod light not working

[proper cipher]

Housing is the Ultimate PVP

Needs recharged. Buy batteries /s

[plush hound]

As in light grind? You need it equipped and doing the quest.

[charred pewter]

i already did the quest and its zenith already

[bright wagon]

can we start making our Blades weapon by begining with resistance weapons or we need to begin from relic weapons?

[twilit arch]

zenith only glows when its unsheathed

[obsidian patio]

Relic weapons are completely separate from each other

[faint flare]

Resistance weapons are the blade weapons

[obsidian patio]

You don’t need to do previous expansions

[charred pewter]

thank you

[dense mulch]

Thanks! Just wanted to ask. Not only I have a small plot. But the other day I saw a neighbor moved from a Medium plot to a Large..I’m like? lol

[mossy moss]

okay, so i have a question, regarding the glamour prisms

[autumn olive]

Yo does anybody have the link for the ba primal discord?

[mossy moss]

how much do they cost at grand companies?

[twilit arch]

200 seals

[mossy moss]

EACH?

[twilit arch]

yer

[plush hound]

yup

[proper cipher]

ya

[mossy moss]

my god that's a lot for starters xD

[twilit arch]

its pretty cheap once you're sergeant second class

and can turn in gear for seals

[dense mulch]

It’s not so bad.. maxed at 80,000 seals.
😐

[boreal storm]

450 prisms at cap

[plush hound]

Once you can start doing Expert Deliveries you're going to be able to get a LOT of seals.

[mossy moss]

so i guess it's better to get higher ranks first

oo, when do i get to have the lvl 50 robe of the flames

[twilit arch]

yes

prioritize promotions

[plush hound]

You're going to be swapping gear so much while leveling that glamouring usually isn't worth the cost.

[twilit arch]

you can just make a glamour plate

[mossy moss]

does my gear have to be perfect condition

or does it not matter?

[twilit arch]

for manually glamouring with a prism

doesnt matter

but to put into the dresser, it has to be 100%

[mossy moss]

to turn it in for seals

[twilit arch]

OH

for seals, no it doesn't matter

[fickle radish]

has this happened to anyone else before? im stuck

[mossy moss]

and when do i get to have this?

[twilit arch]

gotta be 2nd lieutenant to be able to buy it

and getting the allied seals to buy it will probably take some time

[plush hound]

just a loading issue due to high strain. Should still be able to sign in.

[mossy moss]

is that the lowest of the highest 3?

[fickle radish]

huh thanks it worked

[twilit arch]

2nd Lieutenant is the highest you can go with seal promotions

1st LT and captain require a bit more work to get

[mossy moss]

so i get to be lieutenant of the buff guy that's directly under the crown?

in Ul'dah?

[remote lintel]

hes not directly under the crown but yes

[twilit arch]

basically ye

[mossy moss]

That's so cool

I love Raubahn xD

[remote lintel]

does DR give mettle

[twilit arch]

yes

[mossy moss]

So how do i give them gear for seals then?

[remote lintel]

ok good

[mossy moss]

do i talk to the quartermaster and sell it?

[twilit arch]

you talk to the personnel officer

[mossy moss]

and what do i click then?

[rigid comet]

Explore all the options

[mossy moss]

cuz these are my options

[plush hound]

Supply and provisioning

[dry solstice]

its a tab under supply and provisioning

[mossy moss]

so it says that no more deliveries are available today

[twilit arch]

you need to be sergeant second class to do expert delivery

or higher

[lapis talon]

How do I become a ninja?

[mossy moss]

and it says the next mission allowance is in 37 minutes

[knotty lily]

Unlock Rogue in Limsa, level it to 30 - unlock Ninja job

[mossy moss]

is that when i get to turn in gear?

[plush hound]

Become a rogue at Limsa first.

[rigid comet]

C'neshard - what rank are you?

[twilit arch]

ye, thats the rank you unlock expert deliveries

[late dagger]

I'm playing the free trial right now. What should I buy if I want to start playing the full game?

[mossy moss]

i joined and got my chocobo

[rigid comet]

Talk to the NPC to the right of the one you just spoke to

[mossy moss]

and that's all i did xD

[rigid comet]

Oh...

You can't sell stuff yet

To the GC

[lapis talon]

Sorry be pesky but how do I get rouge, sorry new to the game

[twilit arch]

you're a bit aways from being able to do expert delivery

[plush hound]

So you're a Private then. You need to rank up a fair bit first

[twilit arch]

focus on doing your hunting log for grand company and use those seals to promote

[mossy moss]

there's a hunting log for them?

[knotty lily]

No worries - whats your level/class right now?

[twilit arch]

ye, the hunting log updates to have a section for grand companies once you join one

[mossy moss]

there is a blue quest marker on the map for it

let me try to find it and send you the pic of it on the map

[rigid comet]

I think you also need Shadowbringer to get ninja

[twilit arch]

you do nnot

[mossy moss]

no you don't

i remember i could take the quest for it

[wispy shell]

Can you not login rn? It's stuck here

[mossy moss]

and i'm a free trial player

[mossy moss]

wait a little bit

[knotty lily]

You can login - youre in the queue. It just cant show you your character, thats all

[mossy moss]

and you'll be logged in

[knotty lily]

(The "unable to obtain" is because the servers are getting slam jammed by too many players these days)

[mossy moss]

@lapis talon

[lapis talon]

I was a lancer then deleted that character to become a ninja thinking I can just select the rogue class, but now that I know I have to be in lisma to become a rougue I might as well become a anarchist to make it easier since that would be my main area

[mossy moss]

this is the lower decks in limsa

[lapis talon]

O thx so much

[mossy moss]

no problem ^^

[random girder]

gotta be an anarchist to be a rogue

[trail haven]

is there a way to determine what level my main quest has to be at to unlock a job quest?

[plush hound]

I think you mean arcanist. Anarcist is something VERY different. 🙂

[knotty lily]

You can be anything you want - Arcanist can unlock rogue at 10 sure, but the other classes can unlock rogue at 15 so dont get too worried

[random girder]

yeah real anarchists hate math

[mossy moss]

so does every city have their own specific classes then

like, thaumaturges are ul'dahn

[random girder]

yeah

[mossy moss]

that's cool

[random girder]

the lv1 classes and hw ones are from those cities

[knotty lily]

Basically yeah, Marauders and Arcanists start in Limsa, etc.

[random girder]

well

the jobs arent

but the classes always are

like monk is ala mhigan

drg is coerthan/ishgardian

ast is sharlayan

[upbeat scarab]

so does this mean it drops from normal mode? its the dark divinity set

[random girder]

sch is nymian which means you get to rep a dead civilization

so thats cool

[knotty lily]

Yes - theres only one difficulty for Urths Fount interestingly

[proper cipher]

There is no extreme for Odin

[mossy moss]

so because i picked thaumaturge because i wanted to be a black mage i started in ul'dah

[proper cipher]

There is a world mob odin as well that can drop the full set but is pretty rare.

[mossy moss]

and if i wanted to play let's say lancer i'd start somewhere else?

[knotty lily]

Lancer starts in Gridania, yup

[proper cipher]

You'd start in Gridania

[upbeat scarab]

oh i see, is it very difficult?

[mossy moss]

that's cool

[lapis talon]

I didn’t even recognize until now lol

[knotty lily]

Whether you choose it as your starting class, OR whether you unlock lancer as a second / third / etc. class

[lapis talon]

Yea that, thx for the help btw

[lapis talon]

Oh okay, thx for the help too

[plush hound]

It's been known to cause wipes with unsynched groups.

[random girder]

oh yeah black mages are from mhach which is also a dead civilization

[mossy moss]

i thought everyone started in Ul'dah

[random girder]

thaumaturgy is pretty ul'dahn though

[mossy moss]

and i was so confused cuz it was pretty empty

[random girder]

ul'dah feels the most "canon" of the starts to me

[knotty lily]

Not that difficult, but... I dont think anyone queues for it. I dont think its in Trial roulette, either...

[plush hound]

Nope, starting location is determined by starting class.

[twilit arch]

its not in trial roulette no

[random girder]

like technically if we are going by derplander, limsa is 'canon' because marauder - warrior

[mossy moss]

thought that all of the players were in the last expansion cities xD

[random girder]

but ul'dah feels right

[twilit arch]

and its slightly above normal trials, and a little below extremes

[desert quarry]

if i level till 60 before msq is done, should I change jobs or continue on?

[twilit arch]

like not that part but does give DF a bit of a rough time

also it was an event fight

[mossy moss]

Honestly the more i find out about the game the more i like it

[knotty lily]

Up to you! Many people level two jobs with their MSQ because theres enough exp to go around. If you have eyes for another you want to try, try it!

[mossy moss]

cuz the more i realize that every single person has their own unique experience in the game

[plush hound]

That's entirely up to you.

[desert quarry]

thanks for the answer! currently i'm still a bit far from 60. i should start prepping another job if i want to switch when I reach 60 right?

[mossy moss]

And I also very much love the community

[knotty lily]

Game is designed to tailor itself to how you want to play it, you know? Super casual, ultra hardcore, anything in between. All they ask is that you play through the story, after that anything is possible

[cursive mulch]

Hmm, every EU world is closed to new characters at the moment, that's unfortunate, any idea how long for?

[desert quarry]

else it'll be too low to do anything

[faint flare]

!faq serverlock

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

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.

[mossy moss]

a bard made me cry yesterday cuz he played castle of glass from linkin park xD

[faint flare]

Basically late at night

[mossy moss]

tears of joy ofc

[plush hound]

Again, it's up to you. It's not like there's a limited amount of XP available.

[knotty lily]

Also up to you, you might want to hold your poetics for your main job because poetics are used at level 50, 60, AND 70 (and soon 80 too) for gear so they will be relevant for a long time.
When you unlock a new expansion job, it will give you some gear (or a full set) to start with. Depends on what job you are and what you wanna unlock

[desert quarry]

ah i see, thank you all for helping!!!

[low flax]

theres no trade chat in this game right?

[twilit arch]

newp

[queen gulch]

how are different rooms connected in apartments? like do they all have seperate areas you have to load into or are they connected?

[twilit arch]

each apartment room is their own instance

[dark scarab]

how do i know how many points i've gotten overall from fashion report?

[ocean axle]

anyone here playing on Linux? im getting javascript error when clicking log in

[queen gulch]

i think i misread how apartments work

[twilit arch]

no way to accurately tell beyond looking at katsumi's shop and seeing what you've got unlocked.

basically takes between 6-8 weeks to get to 600pts, 6 weeks if you're doing 100pts every week. 8 if you're just doing 80pts

[astral edge]

i logged in today and

ive never seen this before

[oak nacelle]

is there radius chat? like people around you

[astral edge]

i was on free trial and queueing up fine

[oak nacelle]

or nah

[grim nova]

cant join the damned game?

[astral edge]

after clicking "ok" it just closed the entire game

[twilit arch]

say is a small radius around you, yell is a bigger radius, shout is the entire zone

[robust crow]

do you get anything at all for being bloodsworn with all the shadowbringers beast tribes

[oak nacelle]

ohhh okay im just not seeing any chat so i was wondering

[plush hound]

Yup, servers are getting heavy strain due to a variety of factors so they're limiting logins and prioritizing subs.

[oak nacelle]

im lvl 45 and havent seen a single person say anything haha

[twilit arch]

newp

no allied quest means there's nothing for getting everything maxed for shb

[green grail]

you could try right click > visit another world server, if that's available for trials @grim nova@astral edge

[robust crow]

not even a title or achievement?

[astral edge]

should i activate my game then? ive been sitting on a game code until im lvl60 but depending on what happens i might just have to use it now

[robust crow]

that's disappointing

[twilit arch]

newp

[indigo agate]

Are there some levemetes that do not offer fieldcraft leves?

[astral edge]

also

[green grail]

thats normal for servers with crowded login queues

[plush hound]

Also a result of the heavy load. Just sign in and it should go through.

[green grail]

character appearance is an extra load servers opt out of loading when there's a crowd of people waiting to log in

[obsidian patio]

Yes. Only specific leve people in ARR zones have them

[indigo agate]

Is there a handy list somewhere?

[plush hound]

It's up to you. There are some predicting it's going to be more manageable after a couple of weeks but I'm personally not sure about it.

[obsidian patio]

At level 20 the overworld leves converge into singular areas instead of being spread based on region.
20 and 25 are in Quarrymill
30 is in Costa Del Sol
35 is in Coerthas Central Highland by the observatory
40 is in Coerthas Central Highlands at Whitebrim
45 is in Mor Dhona

[indigo agate]

Sweet, thanks

Is it the same for tradecraft?

[obsidian patio]

Yep

[astral edge]

i have to wait weeks to play even once?

[steady gate]

Quick question: the daily bonus from the random dungeon applies to the character or to each of the classes I'm leveling on it separately. Like I do it on lancer, then I get another one on thaumaturge or no?

[obsidian patio]

Roulette’s daily bonus is not per class

[ruby ocean]

Is there anyway someone who has purchased the game could set up a party for me and my friends who have free trials at the moment?

[plush hound]

It's unlikely to be that drastic, but unless you go to the subscription, you're not going to be guaranteed access.

"unable to submit world visit request at this moment"

[spare hare]

do i need crafting for end game weapons/gear

[bright forge]

Only if you don't want to spend 100k+ gil per piece on the market board or to grind it out yourself.

[plush hound]

A pentamelded crafted set is in general BiS, but unless you're going for that, no.

[green grail]

yeah then you might wanna buy the game i guess, if you dont want to sit in queue

or you can log in at downtime and stay logged in when the qeues form in the evenings

not sure if trials have afk autokick

[astral edge]

seeing that im on the europe datacenter and im in europe its unlikely ill get to be around during downtimes

[mossy moss]

Another question, since I am on free trial, do I get to join a free company?

[green grail]

no

[green grail]

well theres like no queues until maybe 4-5pm when people get off work in EU

[astral edge]

ive never not seen a queue when playing on lich

it usually just says like "27 people waiting" but i get put in in a few seconds

[mossy moss]

Idk i have to wait in queues to join onto my server at like 10 am (EU)

And there's usually around 30 people in queue

Idk how datacenters really work, but I think since the servers are pretty populated, I think that would be a reason

[stray osprey]

How do I get company seals fast?

[mossy moss]

Or could

[mossy moss]

Apparently hunting log for the grand company gives a lot

[obsidian patio]

Exchange non-white gear at your grand company for seals

[stray osprey]

where do I exchange?

[mossy moss]

Grand company quartermaster

[stray osprey]

understood

[obsidian patio]

Personnel officer in the Expert Delivery tab once you’re Sergeant 2nd Class

[mossy moss]

But it depends on what rank you are on

Since I just joined one and cant do it

[stray osprey]

I'm trying to get a chocobo reset pepper lmao

I thought, from a logical perspective, that I would need a Tank Chocobo to help me do my Dragoon positionals. I found out a little too late that well... Chocobo SUCK at being Tanks. XD

[slim lion]

can I buy stuff for my ff charachter like outfits and stuff from mogstore with steam wallet if I bought the game and stuff thru steam?

[little swift]

can also purchase it from a marketboard. or use allied seals to buy them

and yes the bird is a shite tank. its the last tree you dump points in to

[stray osprey]

Reset Peppers are market prohibited

Trust me, I already checked

[solid fog]

can someone link me the blm leveling rotation ?

[stray osprey]

[astral edge]

should i just go and activate my game now so im not stuck behind a free trial block?

[stray osprey]

I don't even really know how to get allied seals. I think I have to level up in the company and then do a special type of quest called "Hunts"?

[little swift]

!faq hunts

[zinc orbit]

Allied/Clan Hunting Unlock Guide

'How do I unlock Hunts?'

ARR Hunts: Be 2nd Lieutenant in your Grand Company and complete the quest 'Let the Hunt Begin' located at your Grand Company.

I tried and refunded the game 2 years ago, is this account just fucked?

[warm snow]

Probably

[twilit arch]

you can try talking to support to see if you can pay back the refund but

probably

[warm snow]

You'll need to open a support ticket to get anywhere

[plush hound]

You can contact support and fgind out why and possibly get it overturned. But if they say no then you'll have to sign up under another email.

I remember sending in an email like a year ago and never hearing anything back probably just gonna make new account

[gleaming mist]

you can fit foul into your umbral ice phase to try and fish for an mp tick

[plush hound]

That's only offered when new servers/datacenters are created and they're for a limited time. Outside of that you do have to pay.

[frank zephyr]

Could somebody help me please. I completed heaven on high did the quest on the shoulders of giants, and it still only gives me the option to go to lvl 21 because my current that says it cant go further than 30

[solid fog]

oh wait it does reset my umbral timer

[gleaming mist]

no

[frank zephyr]

I tried again, doing it from the save data i had available and it still doesnt let me access beyond lvl 30

[solid fog]

no it does foul

ehh

[leaden ginkgo]

if my chocobo is rank 6 and I feed him thav onions does he still level up?

[gleaming mist]

[twilit arch]

no, thav onion will do nothing at rank 6

Grants astral fire iii

[plush hound]

Above 30 means you have to start at level 1. It's an all or nothing run.

[twilit arch]

needs to be rank 10 or higher for it to do anything

[mossy moss]

oh god this is gonna be a pain to learn it seems xD

If you're having trouble with your skills, I'd recommend weskalber on youtube

Excellent resource for new players

[random girder]

blm is super ez to pick up once you get the gist of it

[frank zephyr]

then why does it say 1-10?

[random girder]

the opener is a little ??? depending on spell speed but thats all openers

[frank zephyr]

it makes no sense there's no info anywhere saying i need to start from floor 1 to get past 30

[warm snow]

Because you queued starting from floor 1

You did this to yourself

[solid fog]

Ok i still have no idea when to use triplecast

[plush hound]

Because they're done in groups of 10 floors. After every tenth floor you get the option to leave or continue. To go beyond 30 you HAVE to continue.

[twilit arch]

pretty much on cd, or can save if you know a movement phase is coming up @solid fog

ah only for fixed groups

[solid fog]

f4?

[random girder]

fire 4 fire 4 fire 4

[frank zephyr]

okay thats a whole different thing

[twilit arch]

ye

[solid fog]

but isnt casting f4 after f4 almost same time

[random girder]

your fire 3 is short cast when switching

so weave triple there

and then 3 f4s

then f1

Hey guys, was wondering if someone could help me out here. Me and a friend both started the free trial through the website, I bought the complete edition on the website and my friend bought the complete edition on Steam. I had no issues upgrading mine but he can't get any of his codes to work on the MogStation. Does he need to make a new free trial on Steam and then upgrade it? This has been really confusing trying to get it to work.

[random girder]

fire 4 clips the gcd

instant cast f4 is better dps than regular

because fire 4 cast is longer than the gcd

same with blizz 4

and flare

[mossy moss]

he has to use it on steam

steam buys are steam only

[ivory grotto]

anyone know the setting for making aoe puddle more visible? for whatever reason i somehow made the aoe black circle (like the on at alexander only has line red line and rest are transparent)

[twilit arch]

no, should be able to just click on the "apply code" option under mogstation when upgrading

make sure they're applying the starter edition code first

[solid fog]

I mean using normal casting method xf4 is almost same time as instant casting x3f4's

[mossy moss]

his friend bought it on steam

he can't

[twilit arch]

it doesnt matter

Everyone goes thru mogstation

even steam

[stray osprey]

What is "Halatali" and how do I get into it?

Mogstation is the account management site for everyone

[frank zephyr]

ok, ty for info

[twilit arch]

whether you're steam, windows, or ps4/5

[hoary storm]

It matter which trial you download no? theres a steam one and a SE one?

[twilit arch]

The only time the trial matters is if you're trying to go from steam trial to non-steam full game

[stray osprey]

Thank you. I appear to have hunting log enemies that only spawn in this dungeon

[tropic ferry]

So he has to make a free trial through Steam and then upgrade on MogStation or can he use the same account?

[twilit arch]

which is not possible

You can use the same account

[gleaming mist]

it still adds up over an entire encounter to gained gcds:
whether it be through ignoring f4's cast being longer than your recast
being able to move while casting
or allowing some rotational tricks with the time gained from instant casts

[solid fog]

is there a way to reset your CD's while testing on a dummy ?

[twilit arch]

you do not need to go thru steam trial to use a steam full game on mogstation

[gleaming mist]

set undersized party and enter an instance

then leave

cds are reset when you enter an instance

[solid fog]

oof too much work

[tropic ferry]

Thank you, will take another shot at it.

[gleaming mist]

or go to SSS and reset each time you want to reset cds

[solid fog]

SSS?

[lapis talon]

Ok so I have a controller that sometimes auto moves forward at anytime because it’s broken meaning that I can’t cast spells or interact with thing sometimes. Is there a setting or option that turns off me trying to move while casting spells or interacting interrupts that spell or interaction?

[twilit arch]

the steam option is probably going to be greyed out when he selects "transfer full game" and that's not something to be worried about. just have him click on "enter registration code" under the windows section. Make sure tho he is using the starter edition code first before the shadowbringers code since steam does it in a bundle rather than like one code

Can't it just put me in a fucking queue or smth

[mossy moss]

lmao i wait in queue everyday and i'm on free trial

i think the game is telling you the server you're trying to join is too full and have to join another

it doesn't matter which one, since i chose lich, which seems to be pretty populated and I can still play on it

even though i wait in queue daily

[ripe hound]

Is there anyone online I can find someone playing though the story quests of Bahamut?

I just can't seem to find one on youtube

@twilit arch We got it working, thank you so much!! ❤️

[pine onyx]

How many tomes do you get from msq again

I think I'm gonna cap

[knotty lily]

This one has the "Raid" cutscenes, but I know what you mean - its missing the overworld quests.
Not too much happens outside so this might help as a start?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioIs2raCelg

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I guess I'll just ignore the beginning outside cutscenes, and start from T1

[leaden ginkgo]

got a link?

Level 1 to 70 in five days (Stormblood)

[plush hound]

You're going to cap a lot over your time playing. It's not a big deal. If you want to prepare and if you can, go to a capital city and talk to a Rowena vendor and pick up some pieces of augmented Ironworks gear.

[lusty matrix]

You can do dungeons your at the current level of the class, palace of dead from 45~60, Heaven on high for 61~70 and than fates/dungeons and daily roulette for the rest of the 10 lvls from 70 to 80.

[pine onyx]

I know, I'm level 80 on 4 classes already

But I'm leveling 2 classes at once so I'm a bit short on tomes

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a way to find out if a server/homeworld is dead ? or how active it is

[plush hound]

Ah, so you're wondering about Poetics on the Main Story roulette?

[knotty lily]

I can pretty much promise you that all servers are absolutely bumping right now, thanks to the WoW exodus - even the Preferred ones are closed to new characters sometimes

I've seen times where EVERY server on NA or EU is closed for new characters lately, hah

[willow sparrow]

How do I fix this?

[leaden ginkgo]

On non prime hours you'll be stuck on queue

[bright badger]

Hey, what's the BiS gear for FSH at level 50?

[knotty lily]

Dont worry about it - another symptom of the servers choking on too much data. It shouldnt stop you from logging in

[willow sparrow]

okay

[pine onyx]

Yeah I had 1470 so I was wondering if I was about to cap

I just grabbed a belt for my WHM so I should be good

Once my DRK is 60 I can spend all on HW gear

[lusty matrix]

You can check to see if your close to caping by clicking on the gil in the cornor to open a window that shows how close, but the limit is 2k you can hold at any time.

[pine onyx]

Yeah, I was wondering how many tomes was main story roulette

Since I had 1450

I think it's around 600

[knotty lily]

I thought it was 300 Poetics bonus plus a few more for beating?

[lusty matrix]

Last I recall it was 300 I belived.

300 with bonus and maybe extra for new player going through it on their first time so maybe 400 in total.

[sour spindle]

yo how do i propose a forfeit in a trial?

[leaden ginkgo]

wdym wow exodus what drama did i miss

[pine onyx]

I thought it was more

Maybe I'm used to 400

[lusty matrix]

Press U on keyboard, on controller im not sure but its under the party.

[sour spindle]

thx

[lusty matrix]

Well considering the main bonus of the roulette is only once a day it makes since its thats high, other than that just doing dungeons with brand new players going to give you 100.

[knotty lily]

Simply put - last few weeks, WoW released a patch (9.1) that infuriated many players. At the same time, maybe of the Largest (i mean largest) WoW streamers took to playing FFXIV seriously, and that gave it this HUGE boost of attention. Suddenly hundreds of thousands of WoW players moved to try and pick up and experience FFXIV for the first time, we've never seen anything like it until WoW fukt themselves over, if you will

any way to move chat box?

[iron mirage]

[lusty matrix]

Thats not even a joke, with asmon here you can actually watch a graph from when he started just how many new players it took in, something like 200k give er take.

[knotty lily]

This one?

[vestal needle]

yep thanks!

[lusty matrix]

Little silver coin? its used for your retainers to be sent out on mission to collect rewards and bring them back after a set time frame. Its a decent way to make gil and get some otherwise hard to obtain crafting mats.

[leaden ginkgo]

you got a link im kinda curious ;o

[fringe wigeon]

ya from what i understand also is SquareEnix actually sold out of digital copies as well... (generated keys)

[torpid prawn]

Is there a way to reset your desynthesis skill on a crafting class?

[fringe wigeon]

not that it takes long to regenerate keys or anything

but the idea that it could sell out that fast

[distant moss]

yo guys pre ordering endwk on steam gives the xp bonus thingy?

[proud willow]

since the desynth cap was removed, I think the desynth skill reset items might have also been removed

[lusty matrix]

Not par say a link but you can type in google the demegraphics for player base and have it compare the two from FF14 and WoW its actually quiet stagering.

[torpid prawn]

Ah thank you, does that mean I can cap my desynthesis skill for every class then?

[fringe wigeon]

yes

[twilit arch]

yup

[distant moss]

ok thx

[hardy lichen]

I logged in after a year and a half (b4 I stopped after a realm reborn ended, lvl 55, not riiight after, I done a ton of quests but haven't got to heavensward yet) and I have to say, I'm c o m p l e t e l y lost. Spawned in front of Syrcus Tower (idk what that place is anymore) with no idea what I'm doing and with just 5 free inventory slots what do I do? I was wondering if u guys had some kind of guide or video to recommend like "here's everything about the game that you forgot"

[leaden ginkgo]

i cant seem to find anything for it : /

[lusty matrix]

Check the top left of your sceen to see if you have a main story quest if so I would start their.

[knotty lily]

I can say that #archived-lore-spoilers has a Pinned post for a Lore-Catch-Up, in case you want to read through (and I'm sure theres plenty of good recaps for ARR on Youtube). You can see your own progress using the MSQ Tracker at the top-left of your screen, should be there.

[hardy lichen]

Ty! I'll read the catch-up up to where I feel like I left off, and prob start doing something by following the quest up top

[plush hound]

Sorry about the delay. It's 200 for the instance itself, 300 for the roulette, and possibly 100 if there's a first runner, so you're looking at 500-600.

[lusty matrix]

Definitly worth doing.

[hollow violet]

Why am I unable to send message or invite to party anyone on other servers? I right clicked their name, chose send tell, and that's the response I get when I type

[lusty matrix]

Are you a trail player?

[hollow violet]

nope

[plush hound]

They might ahve logged off or went onto another server.

[mossy moss]

I know this is not a question, but it is for others to laugh at as well as myself

Look at this xD

[hollow violet]

They are on another server for sure, I'm on Sarg and they're on Siren

[lusty matrix]

Ok maybe they have /busy on that person to prevent them from receiving invites/tells. aside from that I cant really think of another reason maybe they dced?

[hollow violet]

and it's happened with 3-4 other people as well

that asked me to invite them to the farm party after the instance

[random girder]

[vapid spoke]

hey im trying to do an alilance raid and it's a 30 min queue what should i do ?

[lusty matrix]

Depends which one are you doing? if its the crystal tower raids and your a dps queing for it, id say go grab a snack or find something to pass the time.

[leaden ginkgo]

Do codes from buying this expire after certain time, or can I use it whenever I want to add game time?

[vapid spoke]

ridorana lighthouse as a tank, trying to unlock Bozja

[obsidian patio]

Time cards don’t expire AFAIK

Or if they do it’s a very long amount of time

[plush hound]

Not sure for certain, but it shouldn't expire

[lusty matrix]

Oh you farther than I am into it, I havent done 5.1 yet but seeing as its a high lvl raid id say your going to just have to wait it out nothing more you can do.

[leaden ginkgo]

So I can basically buy 2 and have 4 months of game time right away, no need to wait for the 60 days to end, right?

[mossy moss]

You can redeem two of them at the same time and it will count for 120 days, yes

it is the same as in world of warcraft
