can i just use this ?
is there any difference to what grand company I join in the main quest? or it's just for plot stuff
You should have one available, and once you finish it, a second one will show up. Then you'll have the roulette because you have 2
yes, run that one
k
There isn't even plot stuff, it just determines which uniform you can get
and which barding is on your chocobo
I see, I'll check what uniforms then, ty
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
I know back when eureka was relevant, this gear was recommended. but is it still the case now?
whats the server concurrent cap? world kinda feels half dead even tho servers are full
No one knows
Hello, I'm new to the game, I'd like to know if it's really worth it to create a character on a server with xp bonus? because I went on the internet to find out which servers had the most people from my country, but they're not the ones with xp bonus, does it really matter? (and they are full so it forces me to wait)
basically if you wanna level multiple jobs at once its worth it
exp bonus helps but isnt a must have
if you plan on only leveling one job it would just heavily overlevel you and is not needed
@midnight tinselIdk, I just want to start the game where there are more people who speak my language
leveling is fast enough even without; dont worry
but its still a huge boon if you wanna level all jobs
I don't know what you're talking about, I know nothing about the game sry
ultimately, exp bonus helps but isnt a must have
ok ok
go create your char where it’s convenient for you, have fun ^^
can anyone help, whenever i play ffxiv theres ocassionaly some subtle crackling in the audio, and then a few hours in my pc just reboots itself out of nowhere
ffxiv is the only game or program where this happens and i have no idea whats going on, never happened to me before
#technology-discussion maybe
is there a way to see where i got certain items from?
i just got an expensive piece of music roll and idk how
Google the name ?
Does XIV online support steam family sharing?
id doubt
im not sure how sharing works, but this game has a separate launcher steam runs when you start the game from your library
is there a thrid party launcher for it?
oh ok
thats how sharing work
it does not support game with seperate launcher
Steam doesn't handle anything for you other than login to your account
And your Steam account is linked to 1 specific SE/mogstation profile
im not even sure how people manage to record their in-game hours, it's only shows it running for a second when i click on "play"
hi, ive bought a key for shadowbringers, but ive realised it says i need the base game to upgrade it to shadowbringers (im on trial) do i just need to buy the 9.99 starter edition to upgrade it with my key? 🙂
i just trying to share the game with my brother or decide to buy 2 copies instead
Yes you need starter edition
why would you buy the dlc before the base game? 😄
its 10 on steam for sure
Yes
thank you
so.. im trying to install free trial i set the acc and all that , but when i click the installer (to start the install obv) i get this error
i downloaded / repaired anythin that has to do with visual studio , i also tried downloading the free trial(demo) from steam but when i log with my square acc , it says im dont have the free trial , even though on the sites it says i am
I think you need to create a separate account for steam
Or like now asks for registration code which i recieved none before
I dont even know if the free trial works with steam
when someone is available could i get help on the game not being able to launch? I spent past 2-3hrs downloading and every time i launch it crashes with an error. ): i just bought this after switching from windows free trial and i'm p sad
Where do I find unreal trials?
high-end duty tab
Where can I find the stuff to summon the fighting chocobo?
i just got to lvl 50 and got my dragoon armor and want a sick looking weapon too, is there a merchant for that?
hello all - I've been playing BLU for a few hours now and haven't gotten any items to drop from the monsters I'm killing (e.g. leather, webs, etc.) ...my inv is not full either
any idea why this is?
i think thats jjust the game, u dont get much drops from monsters here
youtube have lots of drg weapon showcase
no, I'm familiar with the loot rate, but I haven't gotten a single item from any of the 30+ different mobs I've killed in the past 3 hours
so in Ishgard I have this, does that mean in 2 hours I can no longer use the ishgard lvling for crafing?
though the primal glowy weapons are easiest to get
is it dungeons or smth?
no no, that’s like a fate but for crafting. ishgard res isnt going anw
which class should i pick at the start if i wanna be white mage in the future?
no, you can buy them from MB or craft yourself
Conjurer
whats MB?
ah ok ty 😄 I'm late to the party of crafting so trying to get all my crafters I've neglected all these years to 80 >.<
MB = market board
MB = AH (if you're from wow)

how can i unlock every content such s savage or ex or dungeons all without finishing their quest
im already holding 30 quests
how to go POV?
edit: nvm i found it, its home key
what''s the use of mythril coin?
You can't
Finish your quests
!faq questicons
- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.
@leaden ginkgo if you've too much in your journal follow this for what you can ditch and what to prioritise
i already finished msq i just need to unlock content
How does crafting work in this game? Is it a massive gold sink until lv80 megaitems? Or is everything oversaturated so that fish guts is the only thing with a profit margin? Or does it run off exclusively crafting megaboss entrails into shoes?
but when i q on savage or ex it 30m waiting
then how
where do you find gear vendors for lvl 40+?
You use party finder to find a group
to finish the quest
Only arr extremes have quests to complete
Because arr is arr
All other savage/extremes just unlock the content
can i solo ex aar trial ?
with lv 80
if anyone can help me with dx11 error lmk ty. ^^
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
Not even accounting for general power creep arr EXs are scaled for like item level 90 at most
You can solo ravana ex, and bismark ex if you have enough burst
ima go whm to be safe
After that, maybe with something like pld for some of them but it's not viable for farming
does anyone know about the markets in the game? i put up some stuff for sale but does it show in all 3 cities??
It'll display in all cities
Just some cities have lower tax rates
😮 which ones??
cool! ty~
Thanks : D
Savages will require a party finder to realistically Farm
They're completely optional tho
Where in ul'dah do I find the gear merchant or auction house npc?
they are always at the market
for uldah it’s the Sapphire avenue aetheryte
or close to there
(i’m assuming you mean sth related to retainers btw)
when does duty roulette resets ? (cerberus)
!daily
hey guys anyone experiencing this? is this okay?
anyone knows how to make the toad suit's mouth open?
thanks
i started as a arcanist, now im lvl 10. i would like to change my class to thaumaturge. how do i do that?
happens to me when internet is nasty sometimes
there should be a quest that allows you to do that in msq
what happens if a squadrons required attributes are too low for a mission
then you just go to uldah and start class quest
finish lv15 msq; and do your lv10 arcanist quest, then go to uldah to become a THM then BLM
“i regret to inform that the mission ended in … failure”
i see.. ok thanks, hopefully this is nothin
hello all i just joined, i just bought shadowbringers but turns out i got my normal version on steam and this one is non steam. I just found out i cannot use the key, what can i do now?
ok, how do you get to uldah from la noscea?
is there a quick way to check the market price of smth?
there a general guide of what sever is best for what somewhere? e.g. RP spanish speakers
just randomly selected my server and wondering what my server is known for/best fit for me is it out there
Quick question
I got the Windows version registered on my account, and I want to play on my mac, do I have to buy the complete edition or can I just buy Shadowbringers and it'll give me everything I need to play on mac?
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
can try !market [data center] [item name] in #kupo-bot-spam

thank you.. for some reason ffxiv wiki did not show me that quest
is it possible to have the heat and battery gauge display horizontally as a MCH?
there a way to scale up UI elements?
Are there yearly version for the sub? Or only monthly?
the game doesnt switch to gamepad layout ???????? is this a bug ?
i have them enabled as you can see
hey so...how do I buy the retail version of ffxiv on steam while im in malaysia?
try create your char during off peak hours
anybody have any thoughts as to why my mount roullette isn't summoning only favorites?
u dont chief
u buy it from the sqex store
I have it set to that
like i did
Go to char config you should see this
oh i thought i gotta get it from mogstation
i thought off peak hours would be now 😅 is there somewhere i can look
mogstation is for in-game items or some shit like that
Hey, Is there currently maintenance in Mog website ? O.o
how hard is omega savage with ilvl 500+ gear?
I can login without a problem but my girlfriend can't tried different browsers and such but still showing the same thing
midnight or early morning are usually off peak
still gotta respect mechanics of later ones but not hard at all
Where do i use allagan aetherstone?

yes
There are tomestone weapons.
They're usually sold by the token exchange next to the main tomestone exchange
Like Aelina next to Auriana
or Bertana next to Hismena
You should absolutely buy them.
huh... i need to check shops more carefully then
check if you are in the correct url
!faq mogstation
could be you entered a wrong place and you got that message
i've seen it happen before
hello how long is 1 to level max in ff14?
noob qn. i died and chose to wait for someone to revive. no one is nearby, how do i prompt the game to send me back to aether?
grindy asf or nah?
depends on how long you play
back to aether?
its like a 20-30h level max?
there should be a thing on the bottom right
are you talking from start of the game or after you beat MSQ and leveled one class to 80?
that allows you to select and press return
daily reset in how long?
start
it says unable to use Return
well start is gonna be like 300 hours if you are doing the entire story
not the skill
there supposed to be a message box that allows you to press to revive or return to home
its probably about 20-30 hours powerleveling ya
300h?
sorta depends how actively you are doign it
oh got it. im blind
Tried your link and still the same thing says Maintanence D:
there's a lot of "depends'
being 80 doesn't mean much if you dont have MSQ done
since thats what gates the content
well
try clearing browser cache?
so completeing the MSQ, which takes about 300 hours if you are paying attention to the story
is the time sink
though of course
if you skim you can go a lot faster than that
there's just a lot of content
and it'll take longer as well
because you'll probably want to do side stuff
as it comes up
the actual levelling isn't slow
its just unlocking it is
but if you hit skip on every single cutscene and speedrun withotu doing anything on the side
its probably more like
50-60 hours
to get to the end of the game
okay okay
Tbh ffxiv has alot of the journey is the goal
And just rushing through it expecting the level 80 stuff to be the game
Will probably leave you wanting
Especially if you skip story
if you've watched Asmongold you can see that it's still totally possible to do hard content way before level 80
especially the level 60 stuff which he hasn't done
Savage Alexander and such
does Bmage use transpose' lategame ?
yes
oh yes
Tbh i wouldnt even call wow endgame focussed i would say its only endgame since they basically ignored the rest of the game
the main grind is really till the end of ARR post patch
since thats when you really unlock trials and raids and stuff
But that also got alot less bad
I see, I thought they wouldn't after seeing blizard III and fire III
You'll notice you have Enochian
and that Flare uses all of your mana
@stray dawn iirc its for inbetween pulls as well to not drop your buff
What are 'rotations'?
ic, only lv 43 atm
probably the stupidest question in the history of questions..... how can I view my chocobo's name
Summon it
one way
Its name is in the party frame
essentially the sequence of buttons you press to play your job optimally
ooof didnt notice it
Ohh ok
thank you
a rotation is basically the most optimal way to put out damage
its called a rotation because after it ends
you do it again
Not every class has a rotation
Some are more openor + priority list
For the more proc oriented ones
Hey sorry, does anyone have a minute to help me?
https://i.imgur.com/uQGsRLE.png?1626303627 these leveling rotations for BLM will help you a lot as you level the class
nice, where can I see more for other classes?
😶
I suggest weskalber class guides on youtube
I'd recommend looking up the Balance discord as well
they have resources for every job
and places to ask questions specially about those jobs
nice, even for the low level rotaions?
sorta depends
I only went there once I hit lv 80
Weskalber goes through every skill level by level
And shows rotations and opener at specific levels
cool, i'll checkl him out
Just tried clearing cache on Opera browser and Chrome and both give the same thing can enter the website and lodestone but can't enter the MOG account/Lodestone account at all.
what do ya need
I'm trying to get back into the game but, having some issues with the launcher - in that it wants a registration code. I have two, and neither of them work.
My account started on a free trial but I'd bought expansions back when I was playing, so I don't know if it's still classed as a trial or something?
o boy
;-;
you gotta go ont he mogstation first
Also, I run through Steam.
since thats where you enter the registration codes
even if you are on steam you need to enter your codes through mogstation
when you buy it on steam you get dlc codes
yup
so it looks like you gotta resub
And that gives me a code or something?
You own the game and aren't on trial
So I setup a sub, open the launcher, and we should be good to go from login?
Launch normally via steam (not through the trial/demo launcher) after subbing

Does anyone else play on a garbage laptop by any chance?
buying the game is an extreme trial in itself

I doooo
yeah its confusing what expansions you have and which you need etc
@jade quartz how garbage?
I wanna know how well a trash laptop can run the end game content
Does anyone run on a trash laptop and do end game?
you can try running the endwalker benchmark
Passed that
Then you're golden
The Benchmark pushes your system beyond anything that actually appears ingame
I did savage on like 5-10 fps before with dips anytime fire 3 aoes happen
You'll be fine
one option that help fps quite a bit is disabling "Screen Space Ambient Occlusion"
Just being in a crowded city is more intensive than being in endgame raids
Okay that’s good
If you don't mind lower fps, keep settings to minimal, turn off effects from other players and don't run act (which is a cpu hog on worse machines) or stream, you'll be fine
Crowded city isn’t so bad
I have everything lowest
I actually played a ton of ffxi so shit graphics don’t bother me
i got a 3080 and i have like 48 fps limsa xD
I have a 1070ti and solid 60 in limsa wtf
ff14 has a beautiful art style, but the graphics themselves are kinda awful
i think many people uses cpu more than gpu
I used to raid on 20-30fps. It only really became an issue when it hitched bad or dropped to single digit on bad days
I used to get bad FPS when i had single channel ram in limsa
It's more about how it runs and feels. Try some normal raids or something to see how it goes
if he preorders endwalker with the starter edition, does that mean he owns everything else too?
Dungeons run ar 55-60 quite consistently
or would that only be the case when endwalker comes out
dont think so
no, not until release
^
sadge
you would have to buy shadowbringers
Most dungeons will feel comparable but they don't push things as much as some of the later content will
D:
Nothing works at all for the maintenance bug, Tried everything i can thing of and what was recommended here, Is there a way to refund my game since i cannot play with a friend ?
where are the Aestheticians?
Crystal bells in Inn rooms
So none of you here currently does top tier content with a trash device then?
I used to
Good day! is there a way to make the launcher on free trial? I'm playing on free trial and tried downloading on steam then steam change to my free trial launcher to not
What graphics card did u have?
Hey everyone, i'm currently level 71 and i finished stormblood, but i'm waiting for a friend in order to start shadowbringer, do you know what i could do meanwhile ?
Idk...just some shitty store-bought laptop
How old was it?
level a new class? 😄
golden saucer farm
Old
I have a Ryzen 5 with a vega 8 integrated which apparently is one of the best integrated graphics ever
But still
Integrated
Ewww
Is there a way to level my actual class without msq ? I've already done all daily duty stuff
FATESSSSS
!faq altlvlguide
no not FATEs lol
XD
Fates are the worst source of experience besides mob farming tbh
Are they just for seals?
tl;dr Hunting Log until level 15, then after doing daily roulettes spam your highest available leveling dungeon, or PotD is an alternate option for DPS jobs
You can do FATEs during dungeon queues if you really wanna be gaining exp
But i'm already level 71 ^^ I was talking like can i still xp while waiting for my friend without msq ?
The same methods still apply.
Sub out Heaven-on-High for Bozja and Trusts.
That guide is relevant all the way til level 80
it was just made when the cap was 70.
I wouldnt do that, sicne msq gives such a big chunk of exp
When he says 5 days does he mean 5 days playtime? XD
Yeah but how many hours a day
that's if you're going real gamer mode though
Yeah I figured as much
for a slightly more casual player, maybe 2 weeks
And for a super casual player who can play maybe an hour-2 a night?
How can i make my char not face the person i am casting a spell on, like when i am running away and putting a dot on the monster chasing me, my char has the audacity to turn around to face the monster leading me to run face forward to him

in "Control Settings"
You are a saviour! ❤️
if i crave to run old raids for challenge (so synced and min ilvl)
is there some discord to help me do that
it is strongly not recommended that you use this setting.
Instead, perhaps you could try legacy control mode in Character Configuration.
WHy? D:
Turning off automatically face target will cause problems as it will simply not let you attack when not facing the enemy.
You will have to manually turn to face them.
one hour in party finder, after a single wipe half a party up and leaves
Else attacks will not go off.
if a DRK uses living dead, does that mean he needs more than a full heal to stop the death timer? because a full heal will only heal 99% of his hp because he has 1 hp left over?
he needs a full heal to not die while in living dead, yes
Healed EQUAL to their max go
full heal is fine
Benediction will work
Hey I have some raids in hard mode and some others with extreme can someone remind me how to unlock extreme?
do I have to finish it hard to unlock it?
Benediction cleanses walking dead status flawlessly.
Going to try last time since i cannot find anything about this problem, Any idea how to fix it ? Or should i just give up and delete the game.
what is the url that you are accessing?
oh ok
well?
I tried yours, and tried from the discord, All seem to give the same error when i want to enter in the account
bahamut
Perhaps you could try clearing your browser cache?
Hey guys, do you get more GMP doing the leap of faith event in gold saucer as a daily completion?
Where can I find a place to level up my DRK at level 30?
bahamut? so coils? that's in waking sands inside where urianger is
I did on both browser even tried getting a 3rd browser
ok
The Coils of Bahamut are Savage-equivalent.
at what level is the first dungeon of the game?
15
what about ARR ifrit and stuff
Fyi your level means nothing
is there anywhere i can go to actually practice getting better at tanking? i've come back from over a year ago but i've never really paid attention to using buffs and stuff cause MSQ is so easy
Story progress is everything
ok, and there is any LFG tool or how do i join dungeons and raids?
From it
in mor dhona, inside a tavern you talk to a bard.
supposedly a blue quest nearby
Duty finder is instance matching
i dont want to join an extreme raid and just get flamed for being terrible lol
i just started law order relic quest, how long do you think it would take to reach the final augmented relic (6th stage)
that is what I wanted to know👍🏻
I guess rip, Was nice playing the game lmao
k k ty
Tanking high end stuff is just finding out what the buster is called and using at least 1 Cooldown
@celest garnet FFxiv community are million times better than WoW community
that is a fact not an opinion
Just big pull dungeons and learn cool rotations
Anyone able to help with UI? I dont get why the UI design shows 10 hotbars but only 2 on screen
The total points you have ever earned in Fashion Report cumulate to unlock more items in the shop inventory of the Au Ra next to Masked Rose
do you use a vpn? if yeah turn it off, have an addblocker try to turn it off sadly its a big range of things it could be
But I believe 400 is the maximum requirement to get all the items
600
That's all good ^_^
So once you've earned a cumulative total of 600 score in Fashion Report you will have access to the full stock
Ty for advice and warning 🙂
I urge you not to do this lol
It will without a doubt hamper your performance.
I suggest you try Legacy controls instead
If the text is blue then it's invisible. Right click to make it visible
Thanks
That implies i have performance to begin with
they will completely solve your problem of being turned around and running in the wrong direction.

omg really 😄 So they are extra if you want them
aight will check it out when i find out where it is 
it's not even performance it's making the game playable
Open Character Configuration
The first setting you see will be Standard / Legacy control scheme
idk man, i watched asmongold play tank too and it seems a lot harder
like do rotations and buff timing matter
idk when to use each buff there's like 10 of them
so hard to use so many of these skills
you set it all up in your opener, where you pretty much pop everything with everyone else in that window
It's not
after that, it's mostly just a matter of pressing things on cooldown
Just learn the bUster nme
are any of the chocobo bardings dyeable?
do you always need to have a defensive buff up at all times?
they normally have names like 'rend' and whatever, but even then if you do something repeatedly you'll remember it
Coils have pretty frequent busters or hard hitting skills but later on theyre basically all casted
I bought the game thru steam now I gotta activate the codes how do I do so?
"Add new service account" if you haven't made one, and grab the code from Library > FFXIV > Right Click > Manage > CD Codes
what food is best to buy thats cheap?
Im sure this is a silly qurstion and my circles are not circles. |But what are the marked bits on the ui called. they still hotbar?
I'm not sure what you mean
same, no idea what circles you mean
The first two are hotbars yes
but still, can i just join any party for tough content? it seems kinda bad for everyone else if im not good at the game
the three stickers on your samurai are not a hotbar
That's your Sen Gauge

the left & middle ones are hotbars, ye,
the right one is your job-bar (samurai) for your beauty stickers when you complete your 1-2-3s
Yes, you are expected to see guides for high level content
So you already know the buster name
And what you need to Cooldown
@faint flare channy fixed the thing for you
Based channy
Thank you.
How do i check the mount speed it got at
and where do I enter my expansion code later?
big red button in "My Account"
Mount Speed is under the Travel menu point
holy smokes it is possible after all.. if you were me, would you spend the sh*t ton of MGP for the sabotender emperador mount? or it aint worth it?
Travel
Where do i find travel
if you don't have the gold ticket stuff yet, get that first
it's one of the tabs of your main menu
the red circles
Shouldn't he get a gold ticket? Or do you only get those at 80?
ohh i dont think i have that.. may i ask whats that for and how mch MGP?
or menu button if you're a controller user
Ahhhh okay thank you!
no mgp, it's the trade in for khloe
check her menu for the items
oh wait
i just saw your screen
:x no gold for you
sorry bud
ohhh so instead of picking the MGP mail, i pick the rowena tokens certificates?
i dont' understand, wc gold ur refferring to?
ahhh i see
so if im 80, i get to choose the gold tix?
I believe so, you can spend the gold on a mount whistle if you want
i see.. interesting.. so the purpose of the gold tix is to trade it in with any mount of choice?
should be this guy
no, only the ones khloe offers
Just the 2
ahhh ok2.. are those better than the 2M MGP mount tho?
Ixion and the other one
IMHO yes, anyone can get mgp but getting a gold ticket is stupid hard
With the profession skills bar, like the one i circled earlier. whats the name of that in the UI config
ohh so the only way of getting it is thru 3 lines on WT?
the two mounts from khloe are ixion and incitaus
which you can buy incitaus from the marketboard
@open rivetThanks
Ixion you can get through a rare SB fate
and ixion can get from doing the world fate 2x
is there a website i can see rotation for each expansion/level?
i see okay2 thanks
Weskalber on YouTube
Has levelling rotations
For all jobs
How do I become a white mage? I'm a lvl 36 black mage and want to try a new class.
Level conjurer
i'm not in the mood of watching long video, if possible i need text guide. if there's none then i'll try watching it
oh u might wanna check Astro instead. its the current S-tier healer class
Someone said to lvl Arcanist, do I need to do that too?
No
ok ty
Where can I find level 30 levelling zone?
There isn't cause who the fuck has time for that
Whats this called in the UI? Also what is the pet hotbar and Cross hotbar used for?
do roulettes and dungeons.
sen gauge
Sen gauge. Pet hotbar is for pets..cross hotbar is for controller
Hi, how can i find a guild?
Where do I find the conjurer job?
lol... ok i'm just asking cuz even nicher game like PSO2 has a very detailed guide. i thought let alone ff14
Pet Hotbar is useless
Gridina
Cheers guys, trying to work it all out i like my own setup 🙂
how come?
All the detailed stuff is at endgame primarily since levelling stuff changes every expansion
You only need 2-3 actions from the pet hotbar
and they can be put on your regular hotbars.
can you delete UI bits not needed or only make them purplr to not show
So the pet hotbar is extraneous
requires adding extra keybinds outside of your normal hotbars
and just generally gets in the way.
eww
It's kind of a relic
best to just put pet into hotbar?
Right click stuff in the Editor to hide that ui
yeah
hate seeing this in UI editor lol
the actions you want from pet hotbar are heel, place, and sic (last one only needed for summoner)
I just yeet those into a corner
I just drag it to a corner so it's mostly offscreen and not in the way
really appreciate the answers all
you can find those three actions I mentioned in actions and traits > pet, drag them from there onto your regular hotbar
Can anyone in chaos with max lvl ALC help me craft something hq!?
How does mob tabbing works in this game in the world? If some1 starts atacking a mob only 1 person can loot it after is dead?
no, the loot is personal, you have to do a bit damage to get the loot too
ah ok caool. what about limit gauge? Best to leave that and the status ones alone?
small question, what do you use tombstones of allegory for if you have crafted gear already? buy materials and sell them for a little gil?
For limit breaks. Statuses are buffs and debuffs
Yes, sell mats
Like mine looks like this
Where can I buy a weapon for poetics for level 60?
Note also, mob loot isn't really significant in this game at all.
ahhhhh ok, and then what means when the mob hp bar is purple exactly?
does my character's date of birth matter at all?
you don't have aggro on it, or claimed it completely
Someone else claimed it
no
You'll get partial xp credit for assisting
The person who attacks a mob first "claims" it and is guaranteed the exp/chance of drops
Illdyshire, or the blue vendors in the cities
other players who attack need to do sufficient damage/aggro generation to also qualify
Mmmmm then what about healers doing stuff in the open world?
which npc sells it? I only saw armor and accessories for poetics
how can u do enough dmg?
what about his patron deity?
healing also generates aggro
Thanks for the help earlier btw

I have a trivial question, I want to transfer from character from an NA Data Centre to EU, is there a particular World that would be best to move to?
If you are on a congested server, you can transfer to a preferred server for free, else it would cost.
Okay that's good I guess.
Will I still be able to play with people on another data centre?
I see
where can I become arcanist

btw, how do you get the dyable version of the lvl 80 job armor
Do memoria extreme
Sorry to be a pest, but I bought Shadowbringers on Steam, and Mogstation doesn't seem to recognise that it's connected to my account, will it be fine?
the steam installation is just the ff14 launcher basically
Do you own the rest of the game on Steam?
You can't mix and match.
I own all the expansions thus far, and I'm subscribed
with what criteria do i choose 1 of these?
On Steam?
that's your starting class
It's your starting job
conjurer is a healer, thaumaturge and arcanist are caster dps
whats the diff between thaumaturge and arcanist
Then you just need to register your code
Big explosions vs Pet/dot job
whats pet/dot ?
So I swear I had a bottle of fantasia from MSQ stored before I stopped playing but I cant find it anywhere, I just finished ARR and reaaally dislike my choice of race, I'll prob create a new character as I don't waant to buy another fantasia, so heres my question: how fast can I fly through the ARR MSQ if I skip everything? Already read it once
How do I get my reg if I clicked don't show this again? >_<
is there a way to move the notification area that is in the center of the screen? they keep piling on top of each other, i dont see anything to move there in HUD customization
Yeah you need to register your expansion code. Found here
yep
It's the pet class that uses dots
the green question mark? You can't move those.
They're tutorials.
Please read them
uh no idea what that is, ill go w big explosions, so thaumaturge?
not just those
DoTs = Damage over Time abilities (poisons)
yeah
completing quest, notifications from fishing and bunch of other shit, they just all pile up in the center and cant read half of that shit before it disappears
It'd part of their job yes
notable that arcanist is 2 classes in one. it levels at the same time a healer and a dps (iirc)
do you guys understand whats the trigger for the instant death? This boss is so damn annoying. hes the first boss but hes way harded than the bosses that follow lol team always get wiped
ill just go w thaumaturge its cooler
Hey, guys! I'm really sorry if I post this in the wrong group, but I'm quite new so.. Forgive me please 😅
Just have a quick question, I have interest in picking up white mage, but I already play a arcanist at lvl 18, how would I go about getting white mage started? Should I make a new character or can I stick to the one I use?
if you do not look away from him when he casts the big red eye spell, you are inflicted with doom.
What do I do if it says the code is invalid? ._.
Doom is a debuff on your debuffs UI. when it counts down to 0 you will die.
ohh so u just have to look away... okay thats helpful ty
u sure u havent activated it already
I'm literally copy pasting.
you won shadowbringers in steam?
I only bought it about an hour ago via steam, and Mogstation doesn't say I have it but steam does.
If you fail to look away you can still cleanse the doom in time by standing on the small glowing circle that appears in the arena
Does somebody know how long it will take from 79 to 80? im at Shadowbringers before the "Malikahs Wall" Dungeon do i only need some runs for 80 or?
probably what vinyl says
Sounds like you're entering it in the wrong place yeah
you press the big red button to add the expansion

What's some good solo content to quickly test your network connection? I'm at my parents' for a week and want to play, but I don't want to mess up things for people in my party.

or if you want to test stability, you can just like
use abilities
hit open world enemies
You'll hit 80 by the time you reach the end of MSQ, there's another dungeon left to go
Theeeere we go, thank you 😄
see if damage and buffs consistently happen straight away and you don't like freeze up for ten seconds
oh okay thanks
Okay. Where do I start STQ?
What are the benefits of joining a clan?
there's also a couple others but what got you was probably doom. his little russian roulette thing stops and you gotta get out of it or you die, and being in the same colour when the whole map goes red/white three times in a row will prolly kill you
A Free Company? Primarily just social group to chat with
You can hang out at their house if they have one
quick question
when your playing ng+ and you are in duty finder
do i need to stay in ng+ or can i do other stuf?
I get the quest from Keiten. I remember that npc. it's the same person that you start RTI.
they also can activate buffs for members like increased exp
I would assume that duty clears required for NG+ only work while NG+ is active
Is Mining and blacksmith a good option for late game?
uh
If you want to get into crafting it's highly recommended to level them all
it's not the kind of thing where you specialise in one.
They all work together to make stuff and are interdependent
only culinarian doesn't do that
ahh i see. so best to get one high first or level all evenly
leveling them together is easier since they share gear
imo fisher is also off in its own world, which is why I like it more
Hey guys I got a question. I have the ffxiv free trial on steam but I also have the general ffxiv launcher. My account status on mogstation says free trial (steam). I wanna buy the starter edition on square enix store to upgrade. If I buy it, will it be safe for me to play it on the general launcher? I’m scared because I don’t wanna buy the starter edition only for it to be completely useless
of the gatherers, yes fisher is pretty standalone
You're stuck on Steam
if your account says steam you need to buy from steam
There is no way to change.
What's a good site to track spawns? I want to kill Flame Sergeant Dalvag (B rank hunt) for the blue spell you learn.
Oh….I can’t buy it from steam cuz it’s not available in my country. Is there no other option?
Also, how soloable is that hunt?
Stupid question, if I paid a friend gil as a joke fee to join me when I queue for something, is that against TOS or am I literally insane?
Ok
not against tos
Thanks.
is there a way to make a 9 slot skill bar?
or atleast hide the last 3 from a 12 slots?
you can turn the transparency up I think
does astrologian start at lvl 30?
yes
When unlocked
wtf how am I a lvl 19 AST then
Sync
oh right yes!
you are level synced down in lower content
No way. The IV imperial legion? Is that not the same legion that was doing research in the clockwork city at the end of RTI?
aside from using the bot, is there a good website to check recent market board prices?
I'm probably missing something huge, but you can't access the Gold Saucer without passing through the airship landing in Uldah?
teleport
at level 60, whats the best way to get tomestones of poetics?
universalis is pretty much your only option, which is what the bot command pulls from
Did you attune the aetheryte?
otherwise yes airship from any city airship landing
your only choice would be probably to start over with a new account that isnt bound to steam then
@twilit arch ah thank you, I will check it out!
…..shit
I see no option in the teleport list though, and I've unlocked all the teleports there!
It's at the bottom of Thanalan
Alright, will double check again, thanks!
does my chocobo need to remain stabled while its changing colors?
yes
Someone linked me to a resource that shows all buffs jobs can do and the numbers
where can ifind that?
at level 60, whats the best way to get tomestones of poetics?
!faq poetics
MCH or BRD for 5.5? which is more clicky? more input. also which is more supportive and required in raids?
MCH is higher APM, BRD is more support, both are equally desirable in raids and fully viable in all content. Jobs are balanced.
is summoner good looks rly fun
is there a "go to" site for instance guides like Wowhead for FF?
alright which feels more fun to you rn in ur own opinion
currently been hitting a few diff sites each time I do a lil search for each instanfe
instance*
What kind of instances do you mean
You really, really do not need to be consulting guides for anything that's not extreme or savage level.
oh okay
But if it really stresses you out then MTQCapture on youtube has guides for casual content
you should be fine if you do something like fashion report every week
gives you around 60k for every 80pts
At the moment i chose a lancer, at level 50 i want to change to Samurai, easy enough to do once i hit 50?
sure, just go to ul dah and pick up the job quest assuming you've bought the rest of the game
How long do home transfers usually take?
Yeah i got all of it
then yep
tell me you're dragoon though right
assuming you're past lvl 30 on lancer
does your squadron need to meet lvl requirements for a dungeon?

uh nice, ty c:
If i pre-order endwalker, will I get the other expansions?
within your buffs assuming you've delayed things correctly. nastrond is normally a use asap given that it's on your timer, iirc?
yes but not until November when Endwalker releases
actually, not sure about nastrond
could also be a use within buffs
but given you're on a timer...
hello
stardiver if you're optimising should always be within buffs, though you might have some trouble on the fifth
alright
Not yet. But eventually once Endwalker is released, you will have all of the expansions. Unfortunately, we do not know if the complete edition that will include endwalker will be launched since the previous complete edition that includes the expansions up to shadowbringers got sold out.
given that the fifth is assuming you haven't drifted whatsoever
so it's tight
but I'd smash out nastrond assuming you can get as many as possible before the timer runs out rather than delaying it for your buff because you might get one less use, but that's just me
might want to check with the balance
how many nastrond can u use in life of the dragon
fete
but apparently it depends a little on ping
check the balance, they'll know better than me personally at least
either way it should still be playable.. you'll prolly clean miss a buffed stardiver on the fifth life but buffed stardiver is optimisation
forget buffed stardiver
i clip
can i remove Battle and Event tabs? it's just useless
explain the fifth
your buffs align so you can catch the tail end with stardiver when you enter life, iirc
but it doesn't work if you've drifted hj or gsk whatsoever, I think
there's a video on the balance
ya but what's fifth
i think I'll have to pass on drg
you get one, two, three, four.. and then around just before the 6 minute mark
it's not that bad
I'm sure you're doing just fine
people can parse well on drg without delaying life at all just by playing competently
yes, cogwheel by the chat https://img.thaun.dev/hs2mv.png
do people play optimum drg on high ping
probably not but optimal drg is just buffed stardiver but the potency you get from a buffed stardiver is legitimately less than you think
oh
i removed event tab, but i can't remove battle tab
it's why it's optimised, you just have nothing to lose from delaying your life the first time
so that's why the opener is commonly used
i guess you can't then
given your ping?
probably
check the balance man, they're a better source than I am
Do people bind and use their "Face Target" button (default on keyboard for that is =F), I already have my bars bound to buttons I am comfortable with but I totally forgot to use the F button and was wondering if melee DPS use that button alot or something
i mean a lot of people play on high ping since no oce dc yet
so some of them might play optimum drg right
probably
does it matter which guild i join? goldsmith weaver etc
I mean maybe not best of the best but still good
i c
the only thing you truly miss out on good damage with high ping is mch
Those are completely other jobs
where it's not even optimisation, you legitimately lose basic damage
ohh
also RDM
Dualcast is weird when you lag
is it?!
ye
i star hardcasting before my dual cast registers
Server doesn't register it
Cause it's a buff
yeah I can see now how that could be an issue
i lost so much dps cos the proc didn't register
definitely an issue
I bought endwalker, but i cant apply the key to my account, says the code is invalid?
but still drg should be fine. you have a pretty long window most of the time during life to get your buff to register and there should be time too for your stardiver to fire off within it
is that b/c only earl access available now?
just the fifth, but that's once every five minutes almost
You can only enter the preorder code
gotcha, ty
and the gain from buffed stardiver iirc is.. 100 potency? 50 potency depending on the buffs?
ill watch some guides then on drg
just ask around the balance mate
100 potency buff isn't bad
sure but considering your literal auto attack is 100 potency
holy shit
it adds up
did not know that
I'm pretty sure it is
what does an ARR marauder look like at end game? is there a specific stat or set to farm?
is sam the same potency for auto?
I might have to check but if you look at your parses
auto attack is pretty chunky damage
over the course of a fight
might have to get a second opinion on this though
because I could always be wrong
Endgame gear Bis lists are a mix of raid gear and upgrade tome geae
For all jobs
equal
potency for all melee jobs?
probably. check the balance
I'm not a trusted source but I say what I can
I'm in a bit of a pickle. I need 5000 company seals and can't do a hunting log to get them. What's the next easiest option?
got it
alrighty
roulettes!
Fates or selling dungeon gear
ok, so I got the rescue spell yesterday and I wanna know when I should use it?
