[faint flare]

SE manually decides it

They give it to lower population worlds

Which

With the influx

Yeaaah

[heavy jewel]

thats strange considering mine was full when i joined and had to wait till 3am

[warm snow]

Lower population relative to the other servers in that region

[faint flare]

It was low population when SE gave it

It won't be low pop for long

[errant swan]

So for Chocobo breeding, can you only breed by buying a covering bird; or can I earn another Chocobo another way?

[warm snow]

Doesn't mean low population overall wither

[faint flare]

Plus we don't know what's "low pop" for SE

[heavy jewel]

either way guess i lucked out

yay

[obsidian garden]

where is the 20 leves in ul'

[harsh tide]

ummm
is the trial I used the wrong one? I think this is counting down

did I fuck up?
I just wanted the f2p mode

[left whale]

Do u have a retainer?

[jade quartz]

did you purchase starter edition

[faint flare]

Did you pay anything

Cause if yoy did then you brought the game

And aren't trial

[jade quartz]

Or you're a player who already previously owned the game and has come back for the 14days free login campaign

[errant swan]

Trial is like it's own program right? Then tyou have to use the transfer thingy to put it in the real server

[jade quartz]

either way you are not on the free trial, and you cannot return to the free trial on this account

[jade quartz]

not a separate server

but you do use a different launcher.

[errant swan]

Sorry yeah

[jade quartz]

Yeah

[left whale]

Yes

[woven talon]

yep

[jade quartz]

you can get the ARR 4man trials.

But it's incredibly fast

so it's kinda appropriately scaled

[leaden ginkgo]

So I unlocked Extreme Trials and some Hard Dungeons, I don't intend to do them right now and they are occupying way to much space
Are they important lore wise for the MSQ or they are more side-gigs?

[heavy jewel]

my friend is wondering if he can use the steam install to launch the game for the mog station version or if he needs to reinstall?

[jade quartz]

Side gigs

[faint flare]

No p2w

[jade quartz]

He can't

[heavy jewel]

he is switching form steam to mog version, so he needs to reinstall right?

[jade quartz]

That is not possible

[heavy jewel]

i mean with a different account

[jade quartz]

Then yes reinstall

[orchid crown]

Is there a way to switch your account from a steam account to a windows one?

[mild wind]

Hi guys, im at level 47 and I need to get to 49 to continue with the MSQ. Whats the fastest and best way to get exp?

[heavy jewel]

k ty, wasn't sure if he could just make a shortcut outside of steam to launch the already installed game

[faint flare]

No. Need a brand new account

[orchid crown]

fml

[faint flare]

Daily roulette then highest level dungeon spam

[orchid crown]

They really need to sort out their account system, perfect opportunity with all this new money rolling in

[faint flare]

Blame steam

For the steam linking stuff

[orchid crown]

I mean

Thousands of games have no issues

Just takes a bit of effort

[quaint halo]

I'm getting a ton of mixed answers, but tl;dr i've progressed on the steam version of the game and have the standard game which i believe is only arr and hw and i've only done arr, could i get the 60% key off square enix store and use it on steam ?

[mild wind]

@faint flare ok thanks

[faint flare]

No

Steam users can't use Non steam keys

[wispy forge]

so I just hit 80 and have my eyes on the Gobwalker mount. I read somewhere that its far easier to get now that the level/powercreep is higher? Isnt raids scaled to level like dungeons/trials?

[warm snow]

It's from the 4th Alexander savage raid

[faint flare]

You unsync it

[warm snow]

That raid is literally impossible to solo

[faint flare]

Which allows you to enter at max level

With your current gear

[warm snow]

So you'll need a group to unsync it

[wispy forge]

whats the downside to unsyncing?

[warm snow]

2+ people should be possible

[faint flare]

!faq unsync

[zinc orbit]

How to do Group Instances by Yourself or Without Enough People

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.

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/A89hsAL.png

[faint flare]

Basically none really... No xp and you need people in your party prior

[wispy forge]

or is leaving it "synced" just a challenge for people that want to beat it properly

[faint flare]

Synced is for challenge

[warm snow]

Synced, no echo, min ilevel

No items, fox only, final destination

Is maximum challenge

[wispy forge]

it says it will forfeit completion rewards but is that unrelated to item drops? just the gil/etc

[warm snow]

Gil and tomes

[wispy forge]

fair enough

[warm snow]

Technically exp but I don't thinks a savage raids give that even if you're synced

[leaden ginkgo]

so I beat SB and I'm still doing MSQ's. Am I doing post SB now? or what

[warm snow]

All expansions have a "post game" of patch content yes

This was the case in arr and heavensward

[leaden ginkgo]

ah ok because I don't see it post SB on the complete quest list

oh nvm

now I do

[warm snow]

[heavy jewel]

can you get road to 70 bonus on free trial accounts?

[leaden ginkgo]

yes

[warm snow]

You could

Now no one gets it lol

[heavy jewel]

oh cause all servers are full or something ?

[faint flare]

Cause there is no preferred servers

Anymore

In EU or na

[mossy flower]

Finally reached lvl 80, is journeys end gear good?

[warm snow]

Due to UNPRECEDENTED levels of new players, the servers are basically on fire. Now no western worlds are preferred so people can't get road to 70 yet

[faint flare]

It's your entry gear

Aka your job gear

[mossy flower]

Ooh

[warm snow]

You'll get a set of your job gear in msq, that's your lv80 starter set

[faint flare]

It's needed for the last dungeon to finish the story

Or your ilvl is too.low

[warm snow]

Once you finish 5.0 you'll be able to spend the lv80 tomes in eulmore as the next dungeon has a 430 ilevel req for msq

[mossy flower]

I see

[wispy forge]

is there any way to preview dungeon gear without owning the piece? stuff from the market I can just preview etc but dungeon gear is obvs just not there

[faint flare]

Try on when it's in the loot pool

Or ask someone to link it if they own it

[warm snow]

Other than that not really

[mossy flower]

Ty ty

[solid yacht]

question is it ok to send them out even though only 2 of three attributes reaches the required amount?

[faint flare]

Yes

It's a 33% chance per stat

Flagged Missions need all 3 met

[winter elm]

I'm on the free trial through the FFXIV launcher, so if I bought Shadowbringers from Squenix store would I also get Stormblood?

[leaden ginkgo]

ahh ok so Im bennfeting lvling a lancer then

what about dragoon gear?
well that be viable to transer to?(edited)

[robust crow]

i should update that guide now tbh

now that caps are increased and nier raid resitrctions are removed

[faint flare]

Lancer is dragoon

[wispy forge]

someone recommended the Nier raid to me ingame. I see thats 490. is it worth the step or should I go straight for 500+

[leaden ginkgo]

ah ok thanks :)

[robust crow]

puppet's bunker is 490

[faint flare]

Lancer is a baby dragoon

[robust crow]

paradigm's breach is 520

you're gonna need to run puppet's bunker anyway to unlock the 3rd raid

may as well go do it

[wispy forge]

fair enough I got some leads to explore 🙂 thanks both

[sleek crest]

quick question about dancer: am i supposed to use Fan dance whenever i get the proc for fan dance or should i save up until i have 4 feathers to use it? generally, how many feathers should i hold before i start using fan dance

[faint flare]

Save 3 feathers

Use the 4th when you get it to avoid overcapping

Use all feathers during raid buffs

[sleek crest]

okay cool, thanks!

[hallow grove]

specific question but,

my friend is coming over, they have a free trial. i have a ps4 with the purchased version. if they log on with their account on my ps4, will their account be affected?

[faint flare]

No...on console, your psn is tied to your account

[hallow grove]

🤔

so they would have to make their own psn account and download the free trial separately ?

[faint flare]

Your psn is connected to your square account only

The trial is locked to one device

So if they already started it on pc they can't use trial on the same account of ps4

[hallow grove]

ah i see

but i cant download the free trial on my pc even tho i have the game already

so they could play on my pc and i can on the ps4

[placid fern]

Just turned Level 44 in Summoner.
What's the benefits of using Surecast instead of just using Swiftcast?

[faint flare]

They could

[faint flare]

Surecast is Anti knockback

It doesn't affect your spells

Swiftcast makes your next spell instant

[obsidian patio]

Surecast does have anti-interruption of spell casting, but it rarely ever comes up

[faint flare]

It's primarily anti knockback

[obsidian patio]

Generally only if you take damage you’re not supposed to, like auto attacks from dungeon mobs or aoes

[placid fern]

So I could be in a boss fight and if the boss were to say... knock me out of the arena.
Surecast would essentially say "no" and I wouldn't move?

[faint flare]

Yes

It's extremely useful skill in high end content

Even in Normal content there's more knockbacks then you think

[jade quartz]

It doesn’t work against all kinds of knockbacks but it does against most

And is often extremely useful in endgame content

[dark wigeon]

So I had originally set up to play on Mac which I hate before I learned this was on PS4

Is it possible to have another few trial?

Or like move it to my PS4

[placid fern]

Gotcha. Thank you all for the feedback!

[dark wigeon]

Shot

[faint flare]

Need a new account as trial is locked to 1 devicd

[dark wigeon]

Ugh ok

[leaden ginkgo]

I need some help

What do I choose Chaos or Light

[jade quartz]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

Which world should I pick?

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

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

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

Notable worlds:

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

[ornate charm]

fastest way to knock out the final resistence step ?

[leaden ginkgo]

nice

[ornate charm]

i mean ik its dungeons but which dungeon should i be spamming

[jade quartz]

Moogle (FR) is on Chaos, Shiva (DE) is on Light

apart from that, doesn't really matter

[obsidian patio]

Raw emotions? I think most people I heard did hell’s lid

[obsidian patio]

!faq flying

[zinc orbit]

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

Flying is unlocked through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.

Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/

[prime breach]

If i purchase a house permit from market board can i use it in any area?

[dark wigeon]

So I need a new email? Ugh my buddy told me it wasn't on PS4

[faint flare]

Yes

[deft parcel]

If you buy a level skip for Summoner, do you get a free level skip for Scholar too?

[faint flare]

Technically yes

But not the job quests done for scholar

So you need to go do all the job quests for scholar

And get gear

[unborn latch]

So I’ve been testing DRK (I’m lvl 56) and I can’t understand this Blood Weapon skill cause it doesn’t look like I’m receiving any mp when I have the buff on?

[dark wigeon]

is there anyway around that? Or is it 100% not possible to switch to my PS4 under my OG free trial

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey I’m trying to remake this outfit. I have the moogle stuff but is the vest level 80 or is it at level 1 so I can put it on any class

[gloomy mortar]

Does using Swiftcast on Ascend help? I haven’t noticed a difference 🦃

[faint flare]

Hover over the chest and wait abit, it says the name of the glamour

[faint flare]

I mean...Ascend is 6s cast....swift makes it instant sooooooo

Yeah

It helps

You're probably missing if you're trying to hit a level 80 dummy

[unborn latch]

Ok so does this skill like update its description when I get blood gauge?

[unborn latch]

I am lol

[slate arrow]

[faint flare]

Always test on lv1 dummies

Summerford farms is your friend

[gloomy mortar]

As AST, I used swiftcast then Ascend, and it took at least 4-5 secs to raise someone . What’s going on?

[jade quartz]

yes

[wispy forge]

is the "bunny gil farm" still a viable option or is there something just straight up better?

[faint flare]

Eureka bunnies can still make good money

[cosmic pilot]

Which dungeon is best to farm tomestones of allegory and revelation?

[serene steppe]

@cosmic pilot All the dungeons in Expert. So Matoya's Relict and Pagl'than

For example

[mossy flower]

Do you guys think that endwalker will go on sale a few weeks before it comes out?

[serene steppe]

Why would it?

It would make no sense lol

[cosmic pilot]

Thanks. Does tomestones have weekly limit?

[serene steppe]

@cosmic pilot yes

[faint flare]

Revelation yes

900 a week

Check your currency tab

[serene steppe]

Usually it's 400 but since we're at the end of the expansion we're at 900

[mossy flower]

Didn’t that happen with shadow bringers though?

[cosmic pilot]

Will do, cant open it yet atm. Sorry

[fickle plume]

what are the differences between eos and selene?

[faint flare]

None

Looks

Colour

That's it

[cosmic pilot]

Those 2 are the best choice?

[fickle plume]

that doesn't feel right

[serene steppe]

Scholar really does feel a bit of an afterthought lol

[fickle plume]

but ok

[tame kayak]

I have 336 hours of playtime and I just finished the SB quest requiem for heroes, but I still have the sprout icon? can someone tell me when it's supposed to drop?

[faint flare]

They used to be different

But Selene was useless

[fickle plume]

glamour even in the skill tree

[faint flare]

Outside of opener

[leaden ginkgo]

That really depends on the marketing team's strategy. It would be too much of a loss close to release date, unless the demand means they can fudge it. With it releasing close to posting 4th quarter, they might just to head into black

[manic tide]

since i learned its normal to be over-leveled for MSQ, would it matter at all if im like level 55 starting heavensward? im also on a road to 70 server

[serene steppe]

@cosmic pilot Simply whichever are the latest released dungeons. Since those are the last 2 expansions of Shadowbringers, yes

[mossy flower]

Makes sense

[serene steppe]

Nope, you'll be scaled down for dungeons if you overlevel anyway

[leaden ginkgo]

@manic tide nah im lvl 57 and still hasn't started HW yet

[proper cipher]

[leaden ginkgo]

I mean 4th quarter posting is Oct 1st to Dec 31st. So I'd imagine they'll hold off posting until after the holiday season in Dec. I wouldn't think they'd have a sale just because of the timing

[twilit garnet]

dumb question, what server does richcampwll play on XD

[manic tide]

midgardsormr

[leaden ginkgo]

What's the total amount of MSQ in SHB?

[twilit garnet]

u sure, heard it was cactuar from someone

[alpine shadow]

including patches or without?

[faint flare]

Cactuar is asmon

[leaden ginkgo]

Without

Just base SHB

[manic tide]

nah asmon is on cactuar, it actually says at the top of his stream rn

[alpine shadow]

106 quests

though, i am not counting required role quests and crystal tower

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh cheers regardless!

[obsidian patio]

For comparison HW leveling story is 94, and stormblood is 122

[twilit garnet]

also another question, if Im a trial can I play stormblood

[alpine shadow]

no

[twilit garnet]

damn

[serene steppe]

Nope, only ARR and Heavensward

[alpine shadow]

heavensward is the top for free trial, buy the complete edition if you want to continue the story

[serene steppe]

But you can play up to 3.5 patch quests

[twilit garnet]

well, atleast I can play cards and get a mil MGP for fenrir xd

100k atm

[ornate crystal]

any idea how long it generally takes to be able to make a new character on a server? I have 3 friends trying to get into my server but it won't accept any new characters lol

[serene steppe]

So if you reach that then buy the game you can go straightcto Stormblood

[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.

[faint flare]

Basically wait until people log off

Late at night is best

[twilit garnet]

love the game, but hate the fact of subscription based xd

[alpine shadow]

which world are they waiting for?

[ornate crystal]

I'm on Behemoth

[twilit garnet]

so havent bought any yet

[fresh wing]

i wanna reinstall ff14 in another driver will that mess up my in game hotbar

[alpine shadow]

keep refreshing https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/ and it should open up any time i guess

well, maybe when people log off

[alpine shadow]

no, it is stored in your "My Documents" folder

otherwise you can back it up in the cloud which ffxiv has

Why is it Europe?

and how will that impact me?

you set it as EU

I live in AUS btw

[alpine shadow]

that is fine

AUS is on the "Other" section

[faint flare]

AUS is considered European

which is better for you, cause purchases don't require you to live in the NA

[faint flare]

And others

So you buy from the EU square store

[dark wigeon]

Does the class matter?

[alpine shadow]

yep, you can't.

[quick pawn]

Oh well I'm only upto heavensward

[obsidian needle]

It's a normal thing around expansion launch

[paper pollen]

It'll take me time since im going slow

just started HW

[twilit arch]

its just due to the current situation

[quick pawn]

i hope we get rid of it soon

:c

[twilit arch]

it is normally enabled during expansion launch and then some weeks later turned off

[quick pawn]

also someone from Famfrit has wolf marks i c an buy?

[faint flare]

This will probably stick around until a few weeks after expansion launch

[twilit arch]

but given that we're experiencing a very unexpected surge in population numbers its been enabled early

[faint flare]

Wolf marks aren't tradeable

[quick pawn]

i want furniture

that u buy with them

[leaden ginkgo]

Whats the drop rate for these like from FATEs?

[faint flare]

It was buffed this patch

[obsidian needle]

It will likely last until next year

I don't think anyone has tested it yet

Since you know, it's one time

Raids were buffed to drop 3 as well iirc

I bought the deluxe edition and used the code, I just logged in and didnt get any bonuses

When do I get them?

but the mount wasnt there

[twilit arch]

Endwalker collector's stuff?

[paper pollen]

Yeah

[twilit arch]

that isn't available until endwalker releases

[proper cipher]

The endwalker mount? oh that;; be at release

[unborn fern]

is there a class that is similar to red mage but more complex

[faint flare]

You can't use that code yet since those don't exist

[twilit arch]

when you put in the code for endwalker

pre-order code =/= full expansion code

[paper pollen]

So I dont get it?

[twilit arch]

you will

when endwalker releases

[paper pollen]

Oh

[faint flare]

You get the code during early access

[twilit arch]

its not part of the pre-order bonus

[paper pollen]

Same for the fantasia?

Since I didnt receive thatyet either

[pine elbow]

Where's the best place to grind fates for someone at lvl 32?

[alpine shadow]

fantasia isn't included in the endwalker collectors edition

[honest anvil]

when does pre-order stop?

[alpine shadow]

when endwalker officially releases

[paper pollen]

oh bummer

[proper cipher]

The pre-order code gave minion and earring the collectiors edition is Mount, minion and weapon but you'll get those at release

[paper pollen]

thanks for the help

[unborn fern]

is there a class that is similar to red mage but more complex

[pine elbow]

Anyone know the answer to this?

[cold river]

What quest do i need to complete to be able to do the stormbringer fishing quests?

[honest anvil]

what are you doing fates for?

[pine elbow]

Seals

[chrome basin]

I’m level 47 and cannot continue the main story quest till level 49, any suggestions what I should do? I did the daily duty roulette already

[paper pollen]

FATEs I guess

or side quest

[alpine shadow]

do aurum vale

two or three runs should be enough

[chrome basin]

What is aurum vale? Sorry I’m new 😦

[honest anvil]

do roulette, then turns in items for seals

[proper cipher]

For seals do dungeons and trade in gear.

And for levelling. Highest level dungeon and roulletes are best way to level

[pine elbow]

Can't do either right now.

[honest anvil]

!quest going for gold

[alpine shadow]

it is a dungeon that you unlock doing the side quest "Going for Gold"

[pine elbow]

Can't turn in items because I'm too low level with the company, can't do roulette because one of them is bugged for some reason. @honest anvil

[paper pollen]

how do i summon the minion

[honest anvil]

bug how?

[paper pollen]

from the preorder bonus

[alpine shadow]

right click item -> minion guide -> click the minion

[pine elbow]

It's not giving me the seals as a reward and it's not counting as completed for the daily roulette, for some reason.

[chrome basin]

Thanks y’all

[paper pollen]

I consumed the item

idk where to go from there

[alpine shadow]

go to minion guide

character -> minion guide

in the selection bottom right menu

[paper pollen]

oh im an idiot

should use those menus more often

[honest anvil]

if similar as in rigid rotation then try a melee like nin or drg … though just an imo

[paper pollen]

just came back recently

[cerulean plume]

hello 🙂 I am very new. something I am not understanding about glamour is, do I need to keep every single item I get if I want to use it to change my appearance? I've kept every armor piece I've gotten while leveling cause I dont know what else to do with it

[pine elbow]

So, got an answer @honest anvil?

[honest anvil]

thinking

that’s weird

[alpine shadow]

if you want to glamour a single piece one-by-one yes, othewise you use a glamour dresser to fill up the glamour plates which you store so you don't have to carry the actual items

[pine elbow]

It is. I'm very confused.

[alpine shadow]

if you have done all your glamour quests, you should find your glamour dresser in your inn-house.

[balmy seal]

what do you do when youre dead in a dungeon

[alpine shadow]

return or wait till you get a ressurect, never return in a mid-fight tho

[serene steppe]

@balmy seal Hope you get rezzed lol

[cerulean plume]

thank you very much @alpine shadow

[honest anvil]

but while i think, north central shroud has a few 30+ fates in the NW area iirc

[pine elbow]

I'll take a look!

Which region is that again?

[grave plover]

level 60 gsm here

well63

anyone know of a general rotation?

[balmy seal]

lol. I was doing the titan dungeon and i was confused the whole time, i didnt know it was on purpose that i couldnt attack the titan

[serene steppe]

@balmy seal Oh if you fall off from the Titan arena you can't get rezzed

[balmy seal]

that makes sense

ty

[serene steppe]

It makes Landslide one of the most dangeroud attacks in the game lol

Since it's big knockback

[honest anvil]

benchbrant meadow is the aetheryte; or travel to gridania itself and walk there through white wolf gate

[edgy charm]

How to unlock trials?

[pine elbow]

ty

[leaden ginkgo]

The fisher retainer is the same as MIN/BTN in that can only catch what I have unlocked in my fishing log? I hate fishing and was hoping my retainer could do it for me T_T

[lethal jolt]

Second night in a row I've gotten this... I was D/C from the game, then trying to log back in a message about the "lobby server" being unavailable

[serene steppe]

@lethal jolt Server fucked

Nothing you can do about it, honestly

[lethal jolt]

Didn't start happening until last night

[honest anvil]

pin 📌 in #doh-dol-lounge has leveling rotations

[honest anvil]

not saying it’s the same same error but others have encountered that for the past week so in a way, you’re fortunate it has only happened to you last night >.>

[lethal jolt]

A glitch in the AFK auto-kick maybe? But last night I was in a FATE, this time I was in a cutscene

[honest anvil]

it resolves itself after a bit though

[autumn hedge]

What is the different between fending and slaying gear?

[honest anvil]

at least for the people i know

fending is for tanks
slaying is for mnk/ sam

[lethal jolt]

Game just completely exits after the lobby server error, have to login all over again

[faint flare]

Fending is tanks, Slaying is Monk and samurai... And dragoon for accessories

[autumn hedge]

Alright thanks

[torn lichen]

for the fashion report, how do i check how many points i have accumulated?

[ornate fulcrum]

So how is Tower the best leveling? I got MAYBE a full level after 1-30 and it took an hour

[proper cipher]

I think only way is to check what rewards you've got already and get a rough figure from that

for the FR

[karmic niche]

What the fastest way to lvl up BLU for solo player?

[little swift]

the floors for palace of the dead that are best spammed are floors 51-60, and even then its less effective than spamming your highest level dungeon if your queue times don't suck

[ornate fulcrum]

Gotcha, thank you

[little swift]

go through things about 5 levels above your level range and kill mobs like that. if you have a friend getting them to blow stuff up for you in amh araeng/kholusia beach for lv70 mobs is your best bet

[honest anvil]

what are some possible causes for not getting seals from leveling roulette?

[karmic niche]

Hmm i see

Ty

Time to beat a lvl mobs with no gear haha

[little swift]

they haven't unlocked a grand company yet

they're capped out

@pine elbow ^ any of this apply to you?

[pine elbow]

Nope

I'm a proud member of the Immortal Flames, and definitely haven't hit any caps.

I've got a possible idea of what's wrong that I'm about to test.

[honest anvil]

oh has you friend unlocked GC?

[pine elbow]

My friend?

[honest anvil]

werent you grinding with someone else?

[wise acorn]

If I switch to PC, do I have to rebuy HW - EW?

[pine elbow]

How'd you know that? Don't think I've mentioned it here.

And yes, they definitely have, but they weren't even in a party with me.

[serene steppe]

@wise acorn If you mean from ps4 to pc, yes

You will get the same characters but you have to buy another license

[dark wigeon]

How do I turn off this virtual mouse?

I can’t turn my camera

[serene steppe]

@dark wigeon Either system options or character options

Figured it out. Had something to do with the starter guildhest being selected. @honest anvil

is there a way to check past chat logs in game, from days ago?

[obsidian patio]

Nope

[proper cipher]

A GM may have access but what would it be for?

[oblique yew]

which DoH/DoL jobs do i start with? basically i want to craft weapons/armor and cook food

[proper cipher]

Armourer and Blacksmith make the gear

Culinarian cooks

[oblique yew]

ok. thanks.

what does weaver do?

[knotty edge]

So I just got to Lvl 30 Paladin, if I wanted to make switch classes to lets say a healer, would my MSQs start from the beginning? or would I continue progress at a lower level? like how does that transition work

[faint flare]

Nope

You need to level up again

Quests are 1 and done

Armourer makes the metal armour

Weaver I think makes robes and stuff

And do fates while queing

[low lynx]

Hello! I just reached level 60 for MCH and would like to know if I can purchase level 60 ironworks gear

if so, where?

[faint flare]

Idyllshire

Shire gear

[high owl]

k, thanks!

[low lynx]

Is that in Dravania?

[faint flare]

It's in The Hinderlands

You go there at lv58 story

[low lynx]

So I cant go there now?

I guess I have to do more MSQs

[faint flare]

Yes

[proper cipher]

Nope you'll unlock the area later

[faint flare]

Means you don't need the gear

[low lynx]

Ah I see!

Thank you all

do they also cost poetics?

[proper cipher]

Yes

[low lynx]

Sweet 🙂

[proper cipher]

They're HW's version of ironworks

[low lynx]

They look so much cooler too haha

[uneven dune]

Whaaa

I love the Ironworks gear

[low lynx]

both of them look good lol

I just like the shire gear for my MCH theme

[white abyss]

Does anyone have suggestions if i should take choco cure or the 30% XP ability for my racing chocobo? It's R2 so awhile to go

[high owl]

hey how do you unlock the parrocks?

[oak lichen]

Which classes have the most creative freedom?

[white abyss]

art classes

[oak lichen]

Have summoner and Lancer leveling but Lancer feels so 1 dimensional

[faint flare]

Blue mage since you can pick your skills

[oak lichen]

I mean in combat

[faint flare]

But it's not a proper full job

There's no creative freedom

All jobs have a rotation to follow

Or the very least a priority system

[proper cipher]

Lancer is 1 dimensional as it exists on the horizontal plane.

[oak lichen]

Right but I mean in pvp

[proper cipher]

known as the floor

[oak lichen]

I want a high skill cap class

[faint flare]

Pvp is a completely different thing

[oak lichen]

Yeah

Haven't found anyone who knows much about it

Or has any interest in it

[valid heron]

How do I unlock the Nier raid? I just finished Shadowbringers.

[faint flare]

Even then, pvp jobs have their burst they need.to perform

[white abyss]

its not the most... popular part of this game

[faint flare]

pvpaissa is the pvp discord

[oak lichen]

Yeah I know

[faint flare]

Word about Korma in Tomra

[oak lichen]

My number is attached to an old account I dont have access to so I cant get in pvpaissa

Since I can't phone verify

But ty

The quest scales to your level

[valid heron]

thanks 😄

[humble mason]

So far I’ve been sticking only to msq for ARR and job quests for my warrior, should I be working on the hand/land stuff too?

Follow up question, how does the hand/land stuff work?

[faint flare]

Crafting and gathering is basically "do whenever you want, but do them all when you do"

They're their own jobs with skills and gear

[proper cipher]

Once you start them you spiral into them all and next thing you know it's 3 weeks later you have no gil and you inventory is more full of random crap than usual

[humble mason]

What’s the benefits of them, because there’s a whole lot of them

[proper cipher]

But they're pretty fun.

You can craft and repair your own gear

[faint flare]

Meld your own gear

Make money

[leaden ginkgo]

what would you say is endwalker ready?

[proper cipher]

You can meld your own gear with materia

[faint flare]

Story done. Gear at least 520+ minimum

[humble mason]

Are they all worth it, because there’s a whole lot of them

[faint flare]

You should do them all

[proper cipher]

That's up to you

[faint flare]

Otherwise you'll kill your wallet

[proper cipher]

Personal enjoyment

[faint flare]

Cause the various crafters needs mats from others

It's something to kick back and take a break from story

[humble mason]

Do they each explain how they work and how to level them when I start one?

[calm hull]

Question, what should I be doing daily in the Golden Saucer?

[faint flare]

All the crafters are basically thr same just making different stuff

All the same skills

Miner and botanist work the same,.just gathering different stuff

And Fisher is....well fishee

Grab bait and go fish

[mossy flower]

@faint flare youve been answering questions for hours how do you do it?

[humble mason]

Do I use fish to make stuff too?

[faint flare]

Have you tried having nothing to do all day?

[proper cipher]

Fish is used in culinarian for some recipes i believe

[faint flare]

In some culinary and rare few alchemist receipes yes

[leaden ginkgo]

understandable

[calm hull]

That sounds like heaven, your a lucky person lol

[faint flare]

The unemployment life

Ain't it swell

[mossy flower]

makes sense

[nimble holly]

what is the emote called where the character does lie ka "jumping cheer" motion? i cant find a clip of it but i saw a roegadyn do it on stream

[faint flare]

/Cheerjump

Its on mogstation

Now

Since it was a seasonal reward

[humble mason]

Alright last question on the subject, are they worth doing when you’re on free trial due to the limited storage space and money cap, or should I wait for when I buy the game?

[faint flare]

Ehhh

You could

Uses up the mats you get

[proper cipher]

Cactpots. Gates.
You can do Verminion as well if you want to farm stuff

[humble mason]

So far I’ve just been selling mats

[faint flare]

Won't really have much use for the end products unless you're using it yourself so eh

[calm hull]

Thank you, so this may be a dumb question... what are gates?

[faint flare]

Events that spawn every 20mins

[tropic flame]

They're kinda like Fates but in the gold saucer

[proper cipher]

Special events that happen every so often

There'll be an announcement.
Then just talk to any gate keeper and they'll transport you to the npc you start it from

[calm hull]

Oh wow that's super helpful, thank you!

[humble mason]

What’s the orchestrion? I just checked my inventory and I had some orchestrion scroll thing that I used

[faint flare]

Music player

[proper cipher]

In Inn rooms and other areas you can play select music you've found the roll for

[humble mason]

Oh that’s cool

[faint flare]

Can place one in house/apartments and have a playlist of music you collected

[humble mason]

In videos or streams I’ve seen people run around playing custom music, what’s that about?

[cosmic pilot]

Which dungeon gives the most of Tomestone of Revelation?

[humble mason]

Can bards play custom songs or something?

[faint flare]

Bards can yes

[naive ridge]

Bards can play songs

[faint flare]

Performance

[humble mason]

And they get to write the songs themselves?

[cosmic pilot]

Still need 200 more of revelation

[naive ridge]

its like a mini MIDI play controlled by keyboard some people use 3rd party macros to play songs

[faint flare]

It's people actually playing notes

[broken cairn]

do people queue up for Levi Unreal? Or should I use PF?

[faint flare]

Or using a third party thing as stated

[faint flare]

PF since its a extreme

[cosmic pilot]

So ~ is there a dungeon that gives Revelation the most or all gives same amount?

[proper cipher]

Anything above Savage you should generally use PF for

[nimble holly]

what is the emote the roe is doing in this clip called https://clips.twitch.tv/RelentlessAlertDootMingLee-Mdvfnu-TjcRCvZwI

[brisk spire]

what are the highest skillcap jobs in ff ? since this game is mainly pve oriented i really want something keep me engaged in the combat

[steady pewter]

how do i unlock the quest "change of arms?"

[tropic flame]

Probably the /cheer emote for roegadyn

[faint flare]

Clear delubrum... Which Involves getting rank 10 and doing castrum in bojza...and Continueing the story (continue it more to unlock Zadnor and the final relic steps)

[proud willow]

@outer cipher that quest ^

[faint flare]

Also server kicks don't penalise you afaik

[outer cipher]

Thank you @proud willow

[faint flare]

Cause it's basically a disconnect

[lone totem]

it's just to avoid getting people queueing for content and then leaving before the duty loads

or leaving while a duty is in "working order"

working order being all players that queued are still there

[faint flare]

You only get penalty if you physically Leave

[lone totem]

if you are disconnected, when you reconnect you'll be in the duty still

unless you were kicked out

or the duty was completed

or abandoned

[faint flare]

Which, since servers are down and everyone was kicked

The duty won't be there

[lone totem]

yep

so you are fine

[barren valve]

Once you 'beat' an NPC in triple triad and collect all their cards the ! mark above their head goes away. Is there anyway to make this visible again? For example if I want to get some easy wins from earlier NPC's for the 10 wins challenge log

[honest anvil]

doesnt get much easier than the triple triad master in gold saucer

the one who unlocks triad for you

[wise acorn]

Okay, so if I buy the license for ShB, I’ll be good to go all together?

Im dreading having to buy everything separate ere

[faint flare]

Provided you own the starter edition already

Yes

[broken cairn]

if you own starter edition: buy shb
if you dont own starter edition: buy complete edition

[dark wigeon]

Why can’t I take items and complete some missions?

[clever frigate]

like quests? some have it so you have to select 1 option instead of giving you all of them. like when completing you pick a reward

[dark wigeon]

Ohhh

Ok

[violet quiver]

is it possible to trade items from a friend whos a lower level, dye it then trade it back to them?

[plain python]

how to be eligible for free-login? Like, you need to be absent for x months?

[plain pasture]

I just started, should I just ignore side quests and focus on the main story/unlock quests? I noticed they give a crap ton more exp.

[plain python]

yeah if u want to just go through the content. Some players take it slow and do everything with a ! mark

for lore tibbits

[plain pasture]

Sounds good ty!

[plain python]

blue quest is particular should do cuz they unlock features/dungeons, unless it is about leve quest

[plain pasture]

ah gotcha ty!

oh sweet ty

[next cradle]

I have question for steam players: If I start the free trial on steam and then decide to purchase the base game later on, do you know if the demo in my Steam library will dissapear and my "Hours played" on steam will carry over to the full game? Or is it treated as a separate install and i'll have to have both the demo and full game in my library

[outer mural]

you'll keep it but have to redownload the whole game appaerntly since you upgrade to the full version

so your hours will not transfer on steam

character and such will

though just to be clear, if you're on steam trial, purchasing the full game must be done on steam only

[next cradle]

Thank you, i've been getting conflicting answers

That seems like a hassle to redownload so ill probably just start the trial through the SE site

[outer mural]

if you have nothing to lose with starting the trial on the SE site instead then yeah

i encourage it

also apparently the full version is on sale on standalone so you may be interested in that

[rugged flicker]

Okay...

So...

I register for a duty.

Then I do a levequest to kill time.

[rugged flicker]

Duty pops, so I have to abandon the leve quest.

Only I can't abandon the leve quest becausae I'm registered for a duty, but I gotta change my job...

x.x

Maybe it would have let my change my job, unfortunately I didn't think about that before the timer ran out <_<

[outer mural]

it would have let you change your job yeah

[flint pollen]

i have put on the 3 pieces of gear that i done for my warrior lvl 45 but i cant seem to unred the npc which is "looking for the part"

[flint pollen]

any thing im missing and it is vigil pieces

and they are lvl 41

[proper cipher]

Just hit the recommended gear button

[flint pollen]

oh i did update the gear too nothing

[proper cipher]

Update the gear saves that as your gear set. The recommended button is the one on the left

[flint pollen]

i did save the gear set

[proper cipher]

The blue person

[flint pollen]

so idnk what is wrong

[quaint halo]

does shadow bringers comes with storm blood in steam ?

[flint pollen]

i have vigil eye piece and upper armor and shoes

[quaint halo]

blood* oops

[random girder]

yes shadowbringers includes stormblood

[flint pollen]

unless they are the wrong gear for inspection

[outer mural]

they mean hit this

[quaint halo]

ah alright, me and my friends just finished 2.0 and are deciding to restart by getting square enix's complete edition 60% off

either that or pay full price for shadow bringers on steam

[random girder]

wouldnt that be the same price

[cosmic pilot]

Where can we exchange Tomestone of Phantasmagoria?

[outer mural]

eulmore

[proper cipher]

So the quest you're trying to start is Looking the Part

[cosmic pilot]

Is that a custom UI?

[outer mural]

yes

[quaint halo]

shadow bringers on steam is 40 rn, the complete edition is like. an insane 23$

[proper cipher]

from Curious Gorge?

[flint pollen]

i just did that nothing

[cosmic pilot]

Which NPC? I forgot

[random girder]

oh wow ok if youre ok with replaying arr then go ahead lol

[outer mural]

all the way on the left from the big plaza in the cneter, up the stairs

[quaint halo]

arr was just so boring xd the fetch questsss

[cosmic pilot]

Thanks

[outer mural]

big row of NPCs as a big desk

[outer mural]

did you open the coffer it gives you

it gives you these 4 items you need to put on

[flint pollen]

oh the coffer

let me look

i did go to 3 different places and i thought it was the vigil gears i picked up

[outer mural]

you gotta read the text, man

[flint pollen]

there was not coffer but it was the blue gears instead of vigil

btw thx which you got me to second look

if i have ff14 from steam can i buy the complete edition from square enix website and not have to start over or?

[proper cipher]

No.

[lofty flame]

Hey yall, quick question. Is there a website I can preview all weapon glamours?

[wraith fern]

i feel stupid now for buying it on steam when all the dlcs and game is only 23$ on there

[fluid schooner]

Hi, since earlier today I've been getting this error

Tried around 500 different things but still unable to fix it

[proper cipher]

If you have a steam account that's stuck with steam
Windows is SE store

[proud willow]

you can go to #kupo-bot-spam and type !itemglam followed by any weapon name

[outer mural]

sadly no but if you're on PC you can downlaod a third party tool that lets you model swap in real time client side so you can test it out yourself

[lofty flame]

Ah okay, thought there was an Eorzea Collection-like site but for weapon glams, ah well

[dusty jungle]

eh it happens. at least you got the little steam timer. and have a connection to the steam wallet. but I feel for you

[outer mural]

sadly no

[naive ridge]

40 Nuts

[dire prawn]

Oh that reminds me is there a quest somewhere that I have to do in order to participate in hunts/hunt trains?

[oblique yew]

is there a faster way to mine? collecting 99 of x materials is becoming tedious

[cyan jungle]

am i screwed? I can't buy the game. i tried but it keeps saying that my user information is invalid and i don't know what that means

[naive ridge]

If you're lazy, just get retainers to gather for you

[outer mural]

wrong password or username

[coral elk]

For the atma grind for the relic weapon, how long does it take to get 12 Atmas necessary for one weapon?

[outer mural]

depends on RNG but it's 25% per fate in every zone apaprently

so like 1 or 2 hours

[coral elk]

Thank you!

[cyan jungle]

i figured it out! my account didn't have my address in it

thank you!

[sturdy mason]

question about 5.x quest: ||do i kill the blue or red butterflies when fighting lunar ravana?||

[ripe hound]

I think both?

[sturdy mason]

hmm. I can't kill them fast enough

i don't know BLM

[ripe hound]

Use ||Break||

That will stop them from moving

[sturdy mason]

i did but I still lost

[ripe hound]

Not even a BLM skill

hun..

Use it more, and also heal the thing in the center?

[sturdy mason]

doesn't help that I'm learning controller at the same time. sigh.

targeting is just miserable

[ripe hound]

But yeah, I think you just spam ||Break|| and heal the thing in the center

[wraith fern]

so i started ff14 on steam but just realized i can get it on the website with all the dlcs for wayy cheaper so i decided to switch to square enix before i got to far

bought the complete edition and downloaded the launcher but now says my account that i used to buy the game isnt valid

like it wont let me login on the launcher at all but i can login to the website just fine

[fringe bone]

howmany more hours for maintance?

[valid prawn]

on controller, legacy, every once in awhile when im running backwards my character randomly walks, anyone know the issue?

[fading helm]

is there a way to get the head gear of the people in Gyr Abania, the little like hood with the ears

[upper wren]

screenshot?

[dull valley]

this im assuming

[obsidian garden]

Are you pressing Lb/l1

[dull valley]

@fading helm

[upper wren]

he meant to @fading helm

[dull valley]

yea sorry hitch

lol

[fading helm]

oh cool how do i get it?

[naive ridge]

that looks like the pvp caster hood

[obsidian garden]

Smh hitch was only supposed to be pinged for this

[leaden ginkgo]

So you're trying to log into the square enix launcher with a steam account?

[wraith fern]

no

i made an account

[valid prawn]

im not pressing anyting @obsidian garden

[wraith fern]

on square enix

that i used to buy the game

[indigo loom]

does anybody know where you can buy the purple currant dye besides the marketboard

[fading helm]

agh of course its only for mages

[obsidian garden]

Weird

[valid prawn]

when im rotating on fights sometimes ill randomly start walking and it gets me killed

[naive ridge]

It's originally the PVP caster hood i think they just repurposed it for NPCs

[fading helm]

oh so its not even avaiable at all anymore

[naive ridge]

it is available

its not the limited ranked pvp gear

[outer cipher]

How get I get bowl of embers hard mode unlocked?

[naive ridge]

im just saying they took the model and used it for the npcs

[spiral inlet]

eos and selene

are the same right?

[leaden ginkgo]

Yup

[spiral inlet]

they changed that after HW?

[leaden ginkgo]

I think after Stormblood. I have vague memories of them still being separate during SB when I played a SCH

[dull valley]

Will I be fine to use duty finder for the shadowbringers main story content?

[leaden ginkgo]

You can use it just fine

[dull valley]

what about the patch content?

[naive ridge]

yea

[leaden ginkgo]

Yup

[naive ridge]

Trust system is just for flavour if you want to run with the story characters.

[dull valley]

oooh

that does sound fun

[leaden ginkgo]

Trusts are just for going at your own pace, and/or learning the dungeon in a safe environment

[naive ridge]

NPCs wont run it as fast as a full party of players

[indigo loom]

wh

why didnt i know that

i had to put up with the main story characters and that shit took FOREVER

i just wanted to burn it XD

[dull valley]

is there any significant character development in trusts or just little throwaway lines?

[fading helm]

whats the easiest relic weapon to get from ARR-HW that cant be bought from the market board?

[naive ridge]

they have their own comments from time to time

[waxen echo]

Ok just gotta ask, still new and going through the st ory but wanted to ask when I can get level 50 gear

[naive ridge]

you cant buy relics from the MB

[leaden ginkgo]

Honestly, it's just for fun. Some of the banter between the NPC's is amusing. Thancred's puns are groan worthy though

[dull valley]

@leaden ginkgo hmm on second thought I do hate puns

[naive ridge]

upon completion of the main 2.0 MSQ

What do you guys recommend for my 3 specialist gems for Disciple of the Hand?

(most useful to have)?

[naive ridge]

culinarian and alchemist if you want to craft foods

and potions

you'll use them the most for those purposes

its relatively easy to switch these days so it doesnt really mater

[humble mason]

What are specialist gems?

[naive ridge]

its like a job stone for crafters

[humble mason]

But you choose what it goes to?

[naive ridge]

yea

you get 3

[humble mason]

When do you come across em

[naive ridge]

i dont remember exaclty

its been a while

sometime in HW i think

[obtuse dust]

What totems are these?

[naive ridge]

would be post 50

[obtuse dust]

And how do I get them

[dull valley]

Im maining a warrior at level 73, if I do a quest and then swap to an alt job before turning in a shadowbringers story quest will the alt job get the 920k my warrior does? Or is it scaled?

[naive ridge]

looks like tomestones of allegory

lvl 80 content or roulettes

or hunts

[obtuse dust]

ty

Is there no market board in eulmore?

[jade quartz]
