[upper wren]

@warm snow cool tell kaiyoko not me youre literally the first person in four weeks to complain about it

[trail rock]

lol thank you im dumb

[open coral]

Northern Thanalan around Camp Bluefog

[warm snow]

You use kaiyokos guide, not the first successful solution

[leaden ginkgo]

How to cancel Eternal Bond? My girlfriend cheated on me with an Aussie

[upper wren]

@warm snow its kaiyokos fucking tweet from a lodestone channel

Gomd

[leaden ginkgo]

Is leveling any DoH job required to put 420 ilvl materia in gear?

[warm snow]

Yeah, the first solution, not the guide

Look and compare the two

[open coral]

Yes. You need to have a DoH of comparable level in order to meld materia. So for i420 gear you'd need a level 80 DoH.

If you want to do it yourself, that is.

You can always just use the Materia Melder NPCs to do it for you, they just can't overmeld.

[digital zenith]

how do I start this hildibrand questline?

[warm snow]

Uldah

just outside the aetheryte plaza

[digital zenith]

ah okay

[wheat plume]

Why can't I use party chat in The Feast? Everyone was writting there, but when I tried it said "Unable to use chat"

[warm snow]

Cuz pvp just invites toxicity

You have quick chat buttons in your pvp profile

You can drag them to your hotbar

[wheat plume]

Oh, so only pre written messages are usable in The Feast?

[warm snow]

Not even your pre written messages, squenixs pre written messages

[wheat plume]

yeah, yeah, thanks for the info

[warm snow]

Fortunately that also means they all have auto translate

[ionic linden]

i dont have disciple of war how i can complete the glmaour fashion?

[warm snow]

You can't

[lime trellis]

how can i make a macro look like that ?

[warm snow]

/Macroicon

[wheat plume]

During the match, people said to Get Medals
How those medals look, why there appear and what effects do I have if I got one?

[spark monolith]

how easy is crystal tower

[lime trellis]

ty

[warm snow]

There's a text commands button for full dwtails

[warm snow]

They drop when someone dies

More medals = faster wjn

[stray gate]

I assume this is just relevant to the feast?

[wintry chasm]

Casual content

[stray gate]

And not normal pvp cause ppl whine and complain all the time

Lol

[wheat plume]

can I get medal from one of me team's death too, or only from other team?

[warm snow]

At least feast, I think it might be in some other pvp

[warm snow]

Only other team

[stray gate]

It's defo not in frontline

Can talk in frontline

[dusty heron]

Hi, sprout here. Started leving botany and love it! Been keeping gear up to date from vendor but havnt been able to find rings etc. Are there rings? Also on trial so cant use market board

[wheat plume]

yeah, I did it for the first time, and I even couldn't say to my party that I didn't know what to do lol

[stray gate]

Lol

[wheat plume]

nice, and what's the winning condition, points or kills?

[wintry chasm]

Not sure about rings being sold for gathering below level 50 but they do exist. Could just level up crafting?

[warm snow]

Yes

[inland fox]

hi guys sorry me again, so I unlocked 'hard' trials, we've just done ifrit, but it hasn't unlocked 'extremes' for me, am I missing something?

[dusty heron]

Oh ok ty, i suppose goldsmithing might have then?

[waxen siren]

Where can I find a fc to join in Omega?

[ionic linden]

how i can upgrade my relic weapon to 500, i dont get it, i need to do fates? (i got the quest already)

[open coral]

You have to do all three of the Hard unlocks (Ifrit, Garuda, Titan) before the Extremes become available.

For The Feast event that's happening now, do I participate only if I enter with a Team preformed? Or can I go alone with a random team and still get a rank for the event?

[wintry chasm]

You'll want to kinda do everything. I think the low level ones tend to be goldsmith or leather worker depending on the specific item. Later on carpenter starts making accessories too @dusty heron

[warm snow]

Yes

[inland fox]

@open coral thank you

[wheat plume]

Yes to what of the 2 options I asked for? thanks in advance

[warm snow]

You just join random teams in ranked and go from there

[wintry chasm]

Even then those rings might require items from other crafting classes like varnish from alchemist hence the "you might want to do them all" since it's an intricate system Lightning

[wheat plume]

What's the winning condition in feast, Points or kills?

[warm snow]

Yes

[dusty heron]

Ok cool ty! Ill try them all then, been kinda only focusing on one thing at a time theres so much

[tired sapphire]

when will square enix support be available again i mailed them like 7 days ago and havent heard a response

[wintry chasm]

Problem with this on free trial is some materials might be a pain to get at a higher level since vendors can stop selling it and you have a limited inventory space

[wheat plume]

Feast has only ranking for the current event, or does it have also a global ranking that started way before the event?

[inland fox]

@open coral and to unlock the next one I need to go back and talk to thancred again in walking sands? it hasnt gave me the next unlock

[open coral]

No, you should need to turn in your existing quest to Urianger, then pick up the next one from... Papalymo, I think? It will be right there once you turn in the Ifrit one.

[inland fox]

@open coral gotcha thank you,on it

YES PAPALYMO GOT GARUDA

[lone canyon]

Any Chocobo guide?

[open coral]

What kind of chocobo guide are you looking for?

[lone canyon]

The Companion one

The Chocobro

[knotty lily]

Feast has a ranking for each season, you can check the rank not only for this season but the ending ranks for previous seasons on the same site

[open coral]

What about it? Specifically?

[celest tusk]

are ingame purches just taking forever due to the rise in player count?

[lone canyon]

General stuff actually. Where to reset skills, whats the maximum rank, etc

[kind jungle]

hello a question if i dont have game bought yet and i preorder endwalker expansion now will i be able to access all previous expansions including shadowbringers?

[lone canyon]

No

[faint flare]

In November

[lone canyon]

You have to wait till Endwalker comes

[knotty lily]

They always took 2 or 5 or more hours, even before the boom. So if more than that, then possibly

[lone canyon]

.timer

!timer

I forgot the command

[open coral]

Maximum rank is 20 (rank 11-20 are reached by feeding it a Thavnairian Onion when it reaches max xp at each level).

Skill points can be reset by feeding it a Regan Pepper.

[celest tusk]

hmm before i actually got it pretty quickly. I just figured with the amount of players we have gotten its just backed the system up thanks for the reply @knotty lily

[lone canyon]

[wheat plume]

When we're in the time between seasons, if I do Ranked Match, what does happen?

[lone canyon]

Thanks

[kind jungle]

and do i have to buy base version as well? or just buying shadowbringers or endwalker is enaugh?

[lone canyon]

Also why did I get muted last night?

[alpine shadow]

If you are busy free trial, you buy complete edition

[open coral]

You need to purchase both the base game and Shadowbringers.

[kind jungle]

Thaniks

[knotty lily]

Nothing at all probably, since its "Pre-season" so nobody else is even queueing. I suspect you'd be in the queue for days - if you did get in, youd get no rank

[lone canyon]

Is it because I said something rude and insensitive?

[warm snow]

@lone canyon check dm, prob word filter

[wheat plume]

great, thanks for the info.
What's the winning condition in feast, Points or kills?

[vagrant crescent]

What is the best keys for Hotbar you think?

I normally use left ctrl, left shift, and left alt, and I just thought it'll be easier if I change something like - and = and others to left side too to make it possible to use a skill with just one hand.

[lone canyon]

@heavy jewel Apologize for the unkind words, it was merely my attempt at some minor tomfoolery

[knotty lily]

Medals, team with the most medals at the end wins.
Note If you play to plan Feast Ranked, I'd recommend some guides on the PVPaissa discord as a good primer!

(In fact I lost two days ago with our team at 399 medals when the other team had 401 - heartbreaking even though we had more kills)

[wheat plume]

If I don't take the medal after an opponent dies, does it disappear?

[lone canyon]

Sounds like a certain meat farm I know of

Gathering medals, highest medals wins

[wheat plume]

because in my party people were hurring others to grab medals when we were focusing on killing

[knotty lily]

It goes back to them actually, as if you didnt kill them at all. Always make sure medals are picked up (Tank > Heal > other depending)

[wheat plume]

how many seconds do I have to grab the medal?

[lone canyon]

Speaking of meat farm, GW is on going. Stop slacking WoLs Or WoDs, your guild needs you

The island that rumors speak of will not grow honours on its own.

[knotty lily]

Good question, not sure. Maybe 15-20 seconds?

Tried to find it in the Feast Primer Doc but no luck, but here it is for you to check out anyways: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1z24hbvtMOvB2OQn_yEkjm_iuSh5aDZyT3_rko4TPcwc/edit

[lone canyon]

[knotty lily]

I think for most people, hotbars/keybinds depend on your mouse. If your mouse has extra buttons for modifiers (Alt, Ctrl, Shift) and maybe two more buttons for moves, you can really push the limits of what you can reach.
With my mouse (G502) having two mods and two extra buttons, I can hit Nine skills from my mouse alone, and still use the two modifiers to reach ctrl+1-6 or alt+1-6, that lets me stop hitting numbers after 6 - you know?

[polar flint]

How good is Flamethrower actually for MCH? I keep hearing hate for it that the Bio Spray is alot better and Flame is almost useless

[faint flare]

It's better than spreadshot

It ticks every second so it's 1k potency for the full duration

[cunning loom]

bio and flame don't share cooldowns as far as i know

[faint flare]

Should I use Flamethrower?
Yes for AoE, except if the fight is about to end and you have to choose between Flamethrower and Hypercharge, then Hypercharge wins out.

What is the AoE priority?

1. Bioblaster 2+ targets
2. Auto Crossbow 3+ targets
3. Flamethrower 3+ targets
4. Spread Shot 3+ targets (2+ targets below lvl80)

[native glade]

I play on a laptop and on a desktop; I have to keep changing my UI when I log on the other machine.... I know there is a local UI backup feature... is there a cloud backup feature for saving UI/character config?

[open coral]

Yes

[upper cove]

I actually got mine within mins. Logged in after I made a purchase it was there. Just awhile ago

[open coral]

On the launcher.

[native glade]

I hit the gear icon, but only see local

[cosmic orbit]

is there a list that shows what type of server every server on chaos is?

bc im on moogle and im afraid that it is an rp server

[faint flare]

World status on lodestone

[open coral]

You should see "Backup Tool" right at the top of the list.

[faint flare]

But there is no "server types"

[knotty lily]

!faq serverpick

[faint flare]

!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

[frail sapphire]

Question about the discord, if i wanted to make a party for a dungeon in here so i had access to voice chat, would i put that in recruitment chat?

[leaden ginkgo]

why cant i glam these gloves? im a 57 SAM

[faint flare]

Above I'd the only noticeablr world types

[open coral]

That's it. Just click Backup. Then when you want to import your settings on the other system, use "Restore"

[faint flare]

Equipped gloves are too low level

[leaden ginkgo]

[native glade]

Ooooooh, so theres not a built in feature, but looks like I can set something up with dropbox

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/2c24b9/guide_realtime_cloud_backup_for_ffxiv_ui_and/

[faint flare]

You can't glamour high level stuff on low level gear

[native glade]

ok ok, thank you for push in the right direction 🙂

[knotty lily]

Yeah you should wear them if they're better than what you're wearing right now, instead

[outer star]

Any other FC leaders here? How do you generally go about recruitment? It's a bit weird of a question I know but I've been a bit shy about having new folks over

[native glade]

Really liking this community, both in game and out; makes new players not feel so lost! thank you all

[knotty lily]

Are you using Community Finder or shout chat to advertise at all? Or Party Finder I suppose?

[outer star]

Shout chat feels like I'm being more obnoxious than anything

[honest anvil]

does the server endorse any particular cactpot solver?

[open coral]

As long as you're not spamming every 5 seconds, it's fine.

Like, just port around the three major cities and do your /shout ad once every hour or two.

[knotty lily]

Eh, if its in a starter city, or expansion city, I'd think its fine. You see those and they arent too intrusive, would just have to write up a blurb about what your FC is about, where your house is if you have one, etc.

[outer star]

Yeah I tend to do that, I suppose I need to do it at better hours

[undone pulsar]

anyone here know much about scholar?

[knotty lily]

Having said that yeah you can also throw up an ad on Community Finder if you havent already, for something Passive and Official

i was set on levelling it to max but then i saw this vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxRXq2sBe3c

[outer star]

I recall making a page on there a while back when that event was going, but I couldn't find my own FC XD

[undone pulsar]

and it says it's like the slowest and easiest one, and also kinda boring 😫

[potent lava]

someone know the command for upcoming events faq

[outer star]

Scholar does have one interesting perk

It levels alongside summoner

[open coral]

That's kind of subjective. Most people actually consider WHM to be the slowest and easiest healer.

[knotty lily]

Are you sure they said that about Scholar, and not White Mage???

[frail sapphire]

Scholar is pretty fun, i mainly play summoner but i switch to Scholar when i wanna skip que times (summoner and scholar level together)

You have a pet that'll constantly be healing party members (idk if there's a way to get her to target someone specifically but i think if you're hurt she'll default to you) and most of their heals put a shield on an ally for 125% of the heal value

[honest anvil]

last bit is not quite .. correct

[undone pulsar]

hmm ok cool

i think ill just stick with it, otherwise im gonna keep switching between things and never reach max level

[south flower]

How can I get to Lavender Beds? The ferry skipper in Gridania said it was "out of service"??/

[undone pulsar]

i could always try astrologian i guess anyway at 50

[frail sapphire]

oh, i was going off the tool-tips, is there something they don't tell you?

[open coral]

Go to the ferry near Bentbranch Meadows

[south flower]

where is that roughly

[knotty lily]

I mean the beautiful thing is that you can take as many jobs to max level as you want, this is FFXIV after all and leveling jobs is not so difficult
Many people have 20+ jobs (or all jobs) at max level, years before the next expansion drops 😮

[honest anvil]

well, in short, only 1.5 skills of sch actually does shields and it's the one sch clicks last last at lv80

[knotty lily]

And yeah AST unlocks at 50 and starts at 30 so you could get it to 50 in a day or two and keep going from there, since you'll spend a couple days at the 50 level cap story stuff anyways you'll have time!

[undone pulsar]

sweet thanks!

[south flower]

nm I found it, thanks @open coral

[frail sapphire]

ok, i'm only 51 so...that'd explain my lack of knowledge

[open coral]

It's the aetheryte in the Central Shroud, or take the Yellow Serpent Gate out of Gridania and run.

[undone pulsar]

i hope SCh is fun anyways but like u say its just subjective i get

guess*

[frail sapphire]

also, question about the discord, if i wanted to make a party for a dungeon in here so i had access to voice chat, would i put that in recruitment chat?

[open coral]

Yes

[frail sapphire]

ok, i figured but i wanted to check first, thanks

[open coral]

Not sure you'd get a lot of bites for a dungeon like that though.

Dungeons don't really require VC

[frail sapphire]

mainly asking because i have concerns over crystal tower
I'm sure it won't be THAT bad but just in case

[leaden ginkgo]

Anyone know approximate cost of the 2nd to last step of the zodiac relic weapon for someone with no crafting leveled? Jw so I know about when I can afford it

[open coral]

Crystal Tower is easy.

Just go blind and get carried. 😄

Tell your party in chat that it's your first time when you head in and it will be fine.

[honest anvil]

ye, highly recommended going in blind for crystal tower

for a certain experience

[frail sapphire]

oh cool!
speaking of, i've heard that you should use party finder for higher level dungeons, about when does that start happening?

is it pretty much any hard/extreme/savage?

[open coral]

PF we mostly recommend if you want to do Extreme trials or Savage content.

Pretty much everything else can be done through DF

[frail sapphire]

ok, thanks

[snow fiber]

Approx. how long is the seventh astral era quest line?

[open coral]

80 quests

[snow fiber]

pain.

[open coral]

Plus the required Crystal Tower quests (and associated raids) and the quests for the three Hard mode primals (and associated instances)

[snow fiber]

how long was umbral era?

[open coral]

Depends on what city you started in, but... 160-ish quests, I think?

[inland fox]

after beating all 3 hard mode guys - is it primal nature next, to unlock the extremes?

[faint flare]

Yes

[ivory rover]

Is the adventurer in need reward the top or bottom reward?

[open coral]

Bottom

The top reward is the daily roulette bonus

[uneven dune]

Leveling ACN is a huge life hack tbh, getting 2 jobs for 1 is super super nice

[ivory rover]

Yep ty, yeah I'm SCH / SMN

[snow fiber]

Limsa and umbral is about 2x longer .....

Nice

[limpid patio]

can I buy FFXIV on PC and be able to play it on PS5 version

[open coral]

It's not. There's only one quest difference between the Umbral Era quests starting in Gridania/Limsa (23 for levels 1-15) and starting in Ul'dah (24 for levels 1-15).

[open coral]

You would need to also buy the PS5 version.

[limpid patio]

noooooooooooooo

[haughty flicker]

Is there a resource for triple triad that is up to date and has good strategy/deck building help?

[snow fiber]

I'm confused. You said umbral is 160ish and Astral is 80ish. How are they the same length?

[open coral]

Umbral is 2.0. Astral is 2.1-2.55

They're not the same length.

They're two different things.

[tiny anvil]

Hello everyone, is crafting is anything important thing in the game except for gil? can i craft something uniq on high level of DoH or something useful throughout the leveling?

[open coral]

I'm saying that depending on which city you start in, there's a (slightly) different number of quests for Umbral.

Having a high level DoH will allow you to meld materia to high level gear and repair high level gear without needing an NPC.

Ohhh copy that

yeah I'm basically done with umbral, 10-15 quests left. But I was confused on how long Astral would be because I want to play heavensward.

You'll have plenty of time to catch up.

@red cosmos I'm level 44 and get around 4k gil per quest with gil reward

[open coral]

The post-expansion quests for all expansions have a LOT of cutscenes though. So they'll feel long.

[red cosmos]

oh okay, thanks!

[snow fiber]

I like cutscene

[snow fiber]

Yeah my last quest with gil reward I got 3677

You make it fast

When was BLU released?

[polar flint]

Sooo I move a lot with my mouse - Just from over the years of playing mmos I have adapted to turning my camera and character in circles using my mouse rather than the A/S/D keys. Whenever I use Flamethrower on my MCH it cancels part of the way through a lot. Does it have to do with slight turning of my camera/character with my mouse?

[honest anvil]

look up Weskalber on youtube

[amber orbit]

is there a way to get to eulmore before the MSQ takes you there?

[cunning loom]

no

[honest anvil]

all lv50, some lv60 stuff are possible

[west parrot]

no, eating the same food twice will only extend its duration... eating different food will overwrite any existing food buff you have

Turning the camera, maybe/probably - but moving even a millimetre, certainly

My game doesn't crash in DX9 but does in DX11 and it does only for a single character. How do I make the game run well on DX11?

[honest anvil]

there are

[faint flare]

Need to, no...does it help? Definitely

Especially if you're gonna be in there for awhile

[twilit patrol]

well armor and weapon takes a while right?

[faint flare]

You can make your money back in eureka via bunnies and selling stuff

Yeah

It's like having another piece of gear in to eureka

[lavish vortex]

every time i finish the dungeon i get a piece 100% guaranteed, but i started getting accessories and i cant get the feet or hands, do they only drop from coffers, and not from guaranteed rewards for completion?

[faint flare]

They're still a part of the guaranteed gear

[twilit patrol]

wont eureka or bozjan die with new content like endwalker?

can i at least solo that stuff

[faint flare]

Eureka will drop again

[compact pagoda]

Is it ok to post a picture and ask what it is? I found some kind of orb 😐

[faint flare]

Bojza won't cause it's still good for levelling alts

[faint flare]

Blue orb? Sightseeing log

[twilit patrol]

if eureka drop can i solo farm weapon and armor? or i need the help of others?

[faint flare]

You can solo

[honest anvil]

probably just bad rng …

[lavish vortex]

m only missing hands, feet and bracelets, if i do the dungeon 3 more times, ill get those 100% guaranteed then? 🙂

[faint flare]

For the most part

[compact pagoda]

@faint flare Ah! okay

[humble mason]

Is golden saucer as addicting as I’ve heard people say it is? I wanna check it out but I don’t want to suddenly get consumed by it and forget MSQ

[faint flare]

Yes

[lavish vortex]

nice, thanks!!

[lavish vortex]

thanks man!

[faint flare]

Well. Do you like mini games and playing in basically in casino to get cosmetics?

It's a nice break

[honest anvil]

addicting is a stretch imo

can be fun but … not that fun

Or make yourself

The whole point of doing crafters

[leaden ginkgo]

[faint flare]

They all share gear

Within their role

Only their job specific gear and like old scrip gear is locked

[faint flare]

Need to also interact with the Ixal crafting station

Ixal are

Weird

It's the colour of the dye on the gear

[spark silo]

Hey, quick question. Some friends were offering to tank and heal for me and my buddy (who also just started on FFXIV) to dome some dungeon spam leveling, but I assume that, since this is our first job, we should probably stick to mainstory quests rather than dungeon spam, as I assume that a lot of content is locked behind it and we don't have the XP boost that you get when leveling new jobs. Am I right in thinking this or is dungeon leveling still perfectly fine for a first job?

[leaden ginkgo]

thx vm, wierd NPC gives out dyed gear as quest rewards

[faint flare]

Yes story Is MANDATORY

You dungeon spam for alt jobs

[twilit patrol]

anyone can tell me if possible average time to make eureka weapon and armor?

[faint flare]

Level doesn't matter while doing story

Outside of hitting the minimum level

[oblique yew]

in e10s, can i use just TBN for umbra orbs?

[spark silo]

Hey probably a dumb question but I'm trying to do the fashion report thing following this guide: https://old.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/oq0hjo/fashion_report_full_details_for_week_of_7232021/
Someone said this would get me 80 points

Any dyeable head piece - Snow white dye
Any dyeable body piece - Any blue dye
Any dyeable leg piece - Any green dye
Goatskin leg guards

And I don't get it. I equipped those pieces but I only got 40 points :/

[faint flare]

Were you wearing something in every slot?

[honest anvil]

^ but og MT still do MT spots in macro afaik

[hardy lichen]

eeeeh they charge for retainers? For all the good this company does I feel like thats kinda bad, do u guys have aditional retainers/do you feel like its needed?

[onyx vigil]

No, I only wore those pieces, I thought I had to take everything else off

[cunning loom]

no

[faint flare]

It's not needed

[cunning loom]

you need all pieces filled

[faint flare]

As marked in the guide

[faint flare]

"all slots must be filled"

Oh fuck I completely missed the gigantic "Important" part...thanks guys :p

How do I check the ticket history?
Anybody knows?

[unreal thistle]

no, huh, from the SE website

Im sorry if this is the wrong channel but, where else can I ask for help :/

I just got this, with a link to cancel the ticket, nothing else

oh wait

[neat pulsar]

Are the servers on aether that full really?

So... yes.

[neat pulsar]

My friends and I are trying to make characters and it looks like I could only get into faerie

Ou h

[upper wren]

Awther was already very populated

[little swift]

all na and eu servers are currently on standard mode

[neat pulsar]

So is primal my next best bet

[upper wren]

Well he can make on faerie then ans just transfer in 90 days

[neat pulsar]

? I'm new to the game

[upper wren]

No

The best bet is just

Set alarm for 3 am

[little swift]

no preferred worlds wait for an off peak hour

[neat pulsar]

Oh ok

Does being on faerie or gilgamesh really matter?

[faint flare]

Nope

Server choice itself doesn't matter

!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

[faint flare]

Fcs are guilds

[upper wren]

Guild

[faint flare]

Which are social stuff primarily

[neat pulsar]

Hmm ok

So with friends I probably want the same server

Ok

[faint flare]

If you already have friends Yes, try to get into their server

If you can't then you can still world visit to play with then

[neat pulsar]

Ok

[chrome basalt]

Hey I'm new here. Just wanna ask is this game currently on sales right now?

[faint flare]

Yes

On SE store

And psn I think

Until he 18th

[chrome basalt]

Oh great

[neat pulsar]

Yeah I bought it direct from site

[faint flare]

On pc you can hold the code nd active it later to milk the trial

[chrome basalt]

will the code expired?

[faint flare]

No

They dont

[chrome basalt]

because i just start playing this game few days and i really enjoy it so far

[chrome basalt]

oh wow thanks for letting me know that

[upper wren]

Just make sure not to buy square code if ur on steam

Steam only works with steam purchades

[chrome basalt]

yeah i'm aware of that, i'm not playing on steam as well

[tropic flame]

you get two for free tho

[unreal thistle]

There's no discount on steam 😦

[tropic flame]

additional is usually for people who are crafter/gatherer and need the extra selling space

[upper wren]

Okay so they charge for retainers becayse their server load is garbagio

[unreal thistle]

uh, 1 question, when buying complete edition, do I buy PC or PC Download 😅

[faint flare]

Download

Pc is physical

[unreal thistle]

oh

[lone canyon]

Do you mean, buying a pc?

[upper wren]

@unreal thistle i literally died when i saw they had pc phys

Its based but also.cringe if you buy it on accident

Imagine waiting weeks for ur code

[unreal thistle]

it's dumb but awesome at the same time

[deep oak]

makes sense given the era when the game came out. As well as it being on both consoles physical editions were inevitable

[upper wren]

No, this is like

Modern production

[lavish spade]

so I started playing the free trial through steam and I noticed there's a sale on the dlc in square enix website, does that mean I have to make a new account from square enix? or I can just buy the dlc and it'll link with my free trial account from steam?

[deep oak]

so?

ppl love a nice game case on their shelf, not all. But ppl buy it just because you don't

[faint flare]

You need a completely brand new account

Steam permanently locks you

[kind jungle]

Hello another question if for exmaple i have started trial acc and downloaded from steam ( i have not bouight any version yet)
if i buy full bundle from enix site now will i be able to attached that to my trial acc on which i have lvl 50 character already?

[lavish spade]

[umbral thorn]

What is the best way to farm this, guys?
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Loathsome_Memory_of_the_Dying

[faint flare]

Do castrum

5 per run

And do Ces while waiting

They buffed the drop from those so it's not terrible

[vagrant crescent]

Is this good you think?

I tried to make similar amount of distance between E to V, and I used M5 to separate the certain skills from the rest. The kind of skills related to enabling and disabling like Paladin Iron Will or limit break. Think of it like a ultimate button so I won't click on it by mistake.

I thought it was good but I would like to know your input on this. Do you think it's good, or do you know a way to improve the keybind even more?

Also my mouse only has 2 extra button on the left side, M4 and M5.

[umbral thorn]

Not enough people in Bozja, it never pops up.

[faint flare]

And it makes Cll spawn faster

It spawns all the time

It's duoable

[deep oak]

I cannot stress how personal this is. Keybinds are what feels comfortable to YOU

[umbral thorn]

So no sense in running crystal tower?

[unreal thistle]

ok wait, my square enix account is login by steam but my ffxiv is not from steam, its SE free trial, huh?

[faint flare]

No

Just do castrum

If you fail Castrum somehow you got some fucking serious mouth breathers

Those are the type of people who fail alliance raids

[upper wren]

@vagrant crescent show your bars not your keybinds

Also, have u consideted an mmo mouse

[umbral thorn]

Well Castrum wasn't hard, just so little people in Bozja it's sad.

Thank you!

[faint flare]

Again

It's duoable

So

The recent patch made it so you don't need 6 minimum

[vagrant crescent]

I know, but I wanted to know what others think. Like a suggestion

That way if someone can think of any and I think it's more comfortable then I can use it.

Like I only learned about using it like that cause I looked it up. I would have kept using - and = even though it's less comfortable cause I didn't knew ya knw? Lol XD

[ocean sonnet]

If I started with MRD can I become DRK immediatly after reaching lvl30 or do I have to become a warrior first?

[faint flare]

People usually bind stuff to keys around where heir hands rest

[deep oak]

I know, but that's exactly what I am saying! Keybind, play, doesn't feel quite right? then tweak. Just need to play, it's very hard to sit there and think about what might work. Spend 20 minutes only for the first fight to be awful lol

[faint flare]

DRK isn't lv30 required

It needs lv50 and heavensward accesd

[vagrant crescent]

I had, but cannot get it yet though and I don't know when either.

Also I'm only at level 35 so the hotbar is not filled with skills yet, so I thought it'll be easier this way, lol XD

But I will send the screenshot though if you want :D

[faint flare]

DRK STARTS at 30 once unlocked

Upgrading your class to its job is MANDATORY

Otherwise you'll be kicked so fast

From content

[vagrant crescent]

Doesn't hurt to ask for suggestions though. Come on, lol XD

Even if I do just do one for myself what if there's a better way that I never even thought about? Lol XD

[ocean sonnet]

Oh I see
So since I started with mrd I would have to make the whole story with its job or pick the Dark Knight when I'm level 50 and grind till I'm lvl 50 with drk too, right?

[whole lagoon]

Guys can we transfer gil to an alt on different server

[vagrant crescent]

Here you go, lol XD

[faint flare]

Yes you'll need to level drk from 30 to 50 once unlocked

Which is just spam dungeons

[upper wren]

Okay! If youre american the g600 is beloved and very cheap to try. Only 36 on amazon

[faint flare]

You need a third person to hold it

[ocean sonnet]

Got it, thanks a lot

[faint flare]

While you swap characters

[vagrant crescent]

AWESOME

I'll look into it pal :D

[warm snow]

Just use controller lol /s

Oh is anyone here free i have like 80000 gil just a returning player starting again on euro server

[upper wren]

I use the naga pro but uhhh its extremely expensive but lots use the g600

the price is very goo

[warm snow]

You can't visit between data centers

No gil swapping possible there

Data center visits are expected to be region locked when we get it and we don't even have it yet

[whole lagoon]

Guess I'm broke for a while then lol

[warm snow]

Just do your msq and you'll be fine

Probably

[chrome basalt]

i playing on japan dc because it's near my country, but not that much english speaker there

[whole lagoon]

Np thx for the info

[vagrant crescent]

I like using Keyboard and mouse more.

I get that controller are still good in FF14 which is shocking, but in a good way.

But I use like 7 different hotbars though. Only 3 is for skills, but 5 of them has keys implanted in them, so I thought using keyboard is better more me cause more buttons.

If not then maybe controller can be better for some, but sadly I use way too many hotkeys though, lol XD

Light server in eu gives about 140 ping pretty good compared to 200+ in jp servers

And that's not accounting for general power creep either

[faint flare]

Yes

[rancid spindle]

Time to do ALL the classes

[faint flare]

That is the common advice

Otherwise you're needlessly wasting money

[rancid spindle]

Old Gridania : Leatherworker's guild : Domitien (independent Tailer)
Limsa Lominsa Lower Deck : Iron Thunder (Battlecraft Supplier) X8.1 Y11.7
Ul'dah Steps of Thal : Sapphire Avenue Exchange - Gwalter (Battlecraft Armorer) X:13.7 Y:10.0

[limber parcel]

Much better to level lthem all together

otherwise you're gonna be spammed with crafting gear all over the gaff

[civic garnet]

what? no i mean like a 3rd party website with info on node spawns etc

I can’t find any level 80 necklace in the market board what do i do?

[warm snow]

If you're searching on a job preset it'll match your current lefel

Check the buttons on the left

[opal swan]

I’m not

[queen flicker]

Do you think I should wait and just keep playing the free content for now? Seems like the trial takes you further than I figured.

[warm snow]

Show a screenshot of your current market board menu?

[rancid spindle]

Is there a limit on the recruits you can have in ffxiv?

[warm snow]

You can but be warned that due to UNPRECEDENTED levels of new players. Trial players aren't allowed queue to log in

[warm snow]

Not that I know of

[queen flicker]

Fairfair

[rancid spindle]

So I could recruit them all and choose whoever I want for squad?

[queen flicker]

SquareEnix is LOVING this Blizzard drama

[warm snow]

I thought you meant recruit a friend, those recruits have a limit but I don't remember it

[civic garnet]

blizzard was always their own worst enemy

[leaden ginkgo]

I need some help, i cannot purchase anything off the store or log station it’s either stays in “redirecting purgatory” or gives me and error code

Probably not, yoshi p was always a big blizzard fan "diablo is in my soul"

[blissful swan]

are you able to still get the rathalos mount?

[warm snow]

Yes

[blissful swan]

oh thank god

[warm snow]

Collabs with actual content don't go away, the nier raid series is also permanent

[blissful swan]

noice

cause i loved the MHW side quest for it so i got exited for this

[warm snow]

No rath for free trial tho

It's in stormblood

[blissful swan]

already have a glamour planned for it

[warm snow]

@blissful swan there's also an original set of rathalos armor you can also get

As well as poogie and palico minions

And ofc the <Monster Hunter> Title

[blissful swan]

so for the stormblood quest for it do i have to past a certain point in the X-pac or is just avaliable once i hit level 70?

[warm snow]

Need to finish base stormblood

[heavy wadi]

it's a linear story so you have to progress msq

[warm snow]

The 4.0 msq

[blissful swan]

[warm snow]

Which is after all heavensward and its patches which is after all a realm reborn and its patches

Can I pls get a quick explanation on each tank job? Not sure which I should go with as a first tank job

[warm snow]

[leaden ginkgo]

Bet

[civic garnet]

so new player and not sure what to prioritize, blacksmithing or armorsmithing (warrior is my highest level at 52)

[lavish spade]

do I have to buy FF14 online complete edition in order to play the game or I can just buy the DLC?

[warm snow]

You'll need to own the base game to use the dlc, complete is game + dlc

[warm snow]

All of them pretty much, an armor piece will use threads from weaver, leather from leather worker magic gems from goldsmith, etc. Etc.

[civic garnet]

welp

sounds fun

[lavish spade]

is the base game "starter edition" ?

[civic garnet]

there any cool gadgets/novelty items for later on? i know carpenters get a mount

[warm snow]

Yes

[lavish spade]

ty

[warm snow]

Alchemist gets a magic armchair mount

There's also minions and furniture

And boss trophies and chocobo barding

And primal weapons with fancy glows

[civic garnet]

alright seems cool enough

[rigid badge]

Hi! so i'm a relatively new free trial player but i saw that the complete edition was on sale on PS and I bought it. does that mean my account automatically turns into a sub or?

[warm snow]

Yup

[leaden ginkgo]

you get 30 days for free tho

[warm snow]

PlayStation purchases are applied automatically

[leaden ginkgo]

after that you have to pay a sub

anyone know how to turn in quest to potkin in ishgardian restoration? all he says is welcome thats it??

[dreamy finch]

Is the Ul'dah ||riot|| and Alphinaud's monologue the start of HW?

[spare plinth]

I think it leads up to it

[warm snow]

You'll know your in hw when you get a big fucking HEAVENSWARD on your screen

But I'm pretty sure you're close

[dreamy finch]

Ah, I didn't know it would be that obvious

[rigid badge]

okay thank you! is the sub paid by PS or mog station account?

[warm snow]

Mogstation iirc

[south wedge]

you have like half an hour left

[warm snow]

Ish

Lol

[dreamy finch]

Then the game gets "good", right?

[warm snow]

Sounds like you're specifically at THE HOOK

[leaden ginkgo]

I need some help, i cannot purchase anything off the store or mog station it’s either stays in “redirecting purgatory” or gives me and error code (sorry for copy and paste)

anyone know how to unlock potkin?

[warm snow]

Idk what you're talking about

[grave wind]

I plan on starting to play the game. Tried for an hour or so before but never really played it.

Should I play on Steam or SE ver?

[leaden ginkgo]

It just don’t work

Idk why I can play the game and everything just anything behind the store I cannot

[warm snow]

Se will have more sales on average for expansions

[grave wind]

There's no major difference between the two, right?

[warm snow]

No

[upper wren]

Betwen expacs there is a big black screen with text

[grave wind]

Cool. I guess I'll get the SE version since its 23.99 for the complete edition

[dreamy finch]

Now I know

[torn viper]

Hi, im using a samurai and read that oka gives a combo bonus of 5 kenki. Ive used fuga then oka, but im not getting the 5 kenki, any idea why?

[coarse leaf]

are you required to visit waking sands at vesper bay more times than the free teleport tickets they give you?

[torn viper]

@coarse leaf nope you'll have alot of spares left

[polar flint]

Are there any easier way to get the materials needed for the Anima relics?

Like the Umbrite/Crystal Sand/Unindentifiable etc

[gleaming terrace]

hello im trying to play the free trial through steam but when i launch the game it says i need to register a license. did i do something wrong?

[fickle meadow]

sometimes when i try right click an item in a game it just left clicks on its own causing me to sometimes use it

is this a lag issue or whats up

[limber parcel]

That sounds like a mouse issue

[fickle meadow]

my mouse works fine out of game

[limber parcel]

It sounds like the right click is clicking twice

[fickle meadow]

like it doesnt instantly left click despite me only just right clicking

[limber parcel]

Right clicking on "use" will do the same as a left click

Could be a faulty RMB on your mouse

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a MB in firmament?

[faint flare]

Nope

Gotta go to the jeweled croiser

[grave wind]

I am guessing the complete edition doesn't include those bonuses you get from the separate Shadowbringers dlc?

[faint flare]

There's no Bonuses for buying shadowbringers

[limpid patio]

if I run out of subscription will it go back to free trial stuff or no bueno

[faint flare]

Nope

Hard locked out

[limpid patio]

noooooo

[faint flare]

It's a trial

Not "free to play until 60"

[grave wind]

But you can resume progress if you run out then renewed?

[faint flare]

Yes

[limpid patio]

I thought it was free to play

[grave wind]

Awesome

[faint flare]

Progress is never deletes

[limpid patio]

I was able to keep playing my free trial for months

[faint flare]

A free TRIAL is vastly different from free to play

[grave wind]

I guess I'll make a new account tonight since square hasn't replied to me about my old account

[sage tapir]

I just bought the starter edition through the square enix store, I activated the code on a different service account but when I try swapping service accounts in game and it gives me error 3109, anyone know what I got to do?

[faint flare]

The big key word is, and always will be TRIAL

[limpid patio]

relax lol

so it won't go back to trial just hard locked?

[faint flare]

It's a Distinction many miss

Yes you're hard locked out

[limpid patio]

No, I got the distinction I just didn't explain very well

[grim furnace]

is it possible to hide heat of battle and jackpot?

like maybe a hide non combat buffs option?

[faint flare]

You can separate your status bar and those types of buffs will be separated

Then you can hide or adjust as needed

[leaden ginkgo]

Y’all I heard that there’s a “ hate indicator “ that can show who’s got more dmg than who

[faint flare]

Food buff also be listed with them

[leaden ginkgo]

How does that work

[wanton niche]

hey, my friend just finished this quest and is still a marodeur https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Bringing_Down_the_Mountain
why?

[faint flare]

The bar under your job icon in the party list

When targetting a enemy

[warm snow]

Hasn't equipped soul stonr

[upper wren]

So right clicking on menus will activate the selected option, probably the issue.

[faint flare]

Shows how much aggro people have in comparison to the MT

[warm snow]

No wait that's the final mrd wuest

[zinc orbit]

How do I unlock my job?

To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.

[gentle shale]

idk if this is a dumb question but what should you put in a application to a free company 🤔

[grim furnace]

@faint flare i got it thanks!

[leaden ginkgo]

guys i bought the standard edition but i still see the free trial on my launcher when that changes?

[faint flare]

Your launcher is updated

[warm snow]

You have to apply the code to your accoint

[faint flare]

When you register it

[faint flare]

It's challenging

[grave wind]

Wait, multiple accounts is okay, right? I don't know my old accounts login ID and I haven't heard from SE so I plan on making a new one instead.

[faint flare]

Mechanics WILL kill you

[warm snow]

Very quickly

[faint flare]

Highly advised to watch guides and join learning parties

And ofc food and melds are basically mandatory

Food more so

[fickle meadow]

yea?

Hi guys, I have some question about Recruitment Reward with my friend.
we still have 30-free days (complete edition) and we both interested in reward for subscription.
Can we have it without waiting for 30-free days gone?

that's the only time you can be "recruited"

any tips on how to increase collectibility?

For crafting or gathering?

[leaden ginkgo]

need 50 but keeps stuck at 30-40 range

crafting

guys after how many days i can active the code of the standard edition if im using the free trial ?

i bought it but im not sure if update now

[upper wren]

@tired orchid i think maybe a time card wouls
D trigger it, but i just resolved to make my friend wait

[sage mirage]

Are you increasing the quality of the craft item?

[faint flare]

You raise collectiblity by raising the quality like you would in a normal cradt

Use touches

[leaden ginkgo]

could it be gear is too crappy?

[faint flare]

You can use it whenever you want, codes don't expire

[sage mirage]

If you are trying to increase quality, then that might be it. What level is your crafter?

[faint flare]

If.your control is low then your touches won't give you much

[leaden ginkgo]

lvl 20

[sage mirage]

Ah, that's pretty low for collectibles

[leaden ginkgo]

this game is very difficult to figure out what to do

i just hit lvl 20 alchemist

is it too low?

[faint flare]

There's an ishgard restoration guide in #doh-dol-lounge in pins I believe

[sage mirage]

My advice would be to do Grand Company supply quests and levequests to quickly level your crafter

[faint flare]

That has rotations and recommended stats for them

[leaden ginkgo]

i spent almost all my gil buying MB items i meant to buy 1 but i bought 99 stack instead...

[leaden ginkgo]

ok perfect ty ❤️ maybe i wait a bit before update the version,anyway last question when i update from free trial to standard the game gives me 1 month of free sub?

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

anyway i can only buy 1 item and not 99 stack?

[faint flare]

That's standard

[leaden ginkgo]

i lost almost all my gil

[faint flare]

Find a listing with only 1 of them

[leaden ginkgo]

make me very sad

[tired orchid]

I see right now Time Card are at least 60 days (we just need to try only 30 days)
But we still need to have Friendship Circlet to boost exp at starting phase.
Is their any other way except 60-days time card?

[leaden ginkgo]

ty for the answers ❤️ @faint flare

[sage mirage]

You can only buy a whole stack

If the seller puts up 10, you need to buy all 10, etc

[rancid spindle]

Anything I can waste my gil on? Im nearing the limit.

[sage mirage]

Glam. Mounts.

You can also store some gil with your retainers

[faint flare]

They're trial

They're talking about the gil limit

[sage mirage]

Ohh

I thought he meant the 999,999,999 gil limit

[tawdry sierra]

whats the best class to level till 50(im planning to play samurai) and how i change it if its not gladiator? i did a wrong choice maybe

for wrong choice i mean that gladiator its tank
