There is no rulw
Just get gear
everytime i ask help the answer is "it depends"
And gather better
like how is a new comer expected to understand things like this sad
read your help tips, usually...
you really dont need to know this until you reach near end game levels, ususally just buying gear from market is enough for gathering
hello
any guidance on how to prioitize Gathering, Perception, GP - which should focus 1st, 2nd, and third at lvl 80?
ok thxvm
Gathering is more important, but GP abilities can increase your gathering rate
Is there any use to doubles Triad Cards?
gathering for success rate, perception for quality rate iirc
or do I just delete them
trading them for mpg in the gold saucer @amber hornet
Sell for.mgp at the saucer
ff14 is the first actual mmo i've ever played since its free content is alot so idk much about expansions can someone brief me on how they work?
!faq buy
arguably GP is the most important stat because you can realistically never have enough of it. gathering/perception you only need to certain amounts to hit the appropriate breakpoints but at the end of the day you can make due with yellow/white scrip gear and not really worry about that
since what to meld is based entirely on what your end-game goal is
does this game allow addons?
i mean what does the expansions do? are they addition to the story?
Yes
oh ok
And more content
technically no. mods are basically a grey area of don't ask, don't tell. use for your own personal use but don't talk about it in-game
so if i want to get the latest expansion content i need to do the prev stuff first?
Yes as the faq says
Will 2000 Tomestones of Poetic be enough for one Anima Weapon?
@twilit arch oh cool so i can make my own
man ff14 free trial is awesome i always wanted to play a mmo
assuming you mean getting it all the way to lux
thx for the info
min is like 13k poetics for the whole thing
Haha no, it’s like 15k
Oh.
does the FC mgp buff stack with the current make it rain event?
yes
Nice to know
Hello, I am coming here looking for some more clear guidance on switching from console to PC. I read the pins and didnt see quite what I was looking for
those are combos
@dark scarab i mean arent combos basically rotations?
No
not really
or do u have multiple combos and u choose which ones u rotate
oh ok cool
So I know I need to purchase a PC license, but what I want to know for switching is will the expansions I purchased on console carry over to PC or would I have to purchase them separately?
I went afk during a incredibly low level guildhest, is there a pentaly? <~<
I see Dreadwyrm Trance grants two units of Dreadwyrm Aether. What is Dreadwyrm Aether? I can't find any clear answer to what it is.
But it all again
It's for bahamut
is it possible to get top end game gatherer gear without spending GIL? like can we get them from vendors? same as for alchemist - can i get end game alchemist gear through my own hard work? if so - how to do so generally? just asking this to give me some hope and not have to pay too high price on MB
So I will have to buy Shadowbringers as well as the base game again?
basically how much dmg its going to do
the higher the potency the more dmg
the attack is gonna do
Yes, everything except sub
can i somehow has formula or is it a sqare enix trade secret
There is probably somewhere
And if I buy the Complete Edition it should be just fine?
But honestly just think 'the higher the potency, the better'
!faq stats
And if I buy the Complete Edition it should be just fine?
Allaganstudies has it all
nice, thanks
Thank you so much, Sqeenix make purchasing things such a headache
any guide on how to get endgame botanist gear cheaply or through quests?
idk if this is the right channel for this, but are there any people who can help with bahamut raid turn 6? Tried it for two days now and doing it with random people who don't get the strat hasnt been working out....
You can start with scrip gear
If you want BiS gathering gear you'll need to craft aesthete and overmelded it
Though it's like ultra late so scrips are fine
will scrip gear be good? like i want to make steady gil income
will scrip gear allow me to do so?
For basic gathering
does healing a DRK for 100% of his HP, while living dead has 4 seconds remaining = removing living dead and the invulnerability for those 4 seconds too?
Yes
It completely removes it if they're full hp
oohhhh
Yeah, you die and need to get to 100% before dying for real
Knowing that scares me of healing xD
What is the best way to do density on anime weapon?
Healed EQUAL to your max HP
so bene too early wastes living dead’s duration then?
You mean light farming? Then A9S
A9s on party finder
if you can get a party for it, unsync a9s. if can't find a group, do lvl 50 ARR dungeons unsync
My friend is a level 70 SMN and we cannot figure out how he is able to use Summon Bahamut when Dreadwyrm Trance only gives one Dreadwyrm Aether. At level 70, they only have access to Enhanced Dreadwyrm Trance 1, and at 72 they get Dreadwyrm Trance 2. Very confused where this second amount of Dreadwyrm Aether is coming from that allows them to use Summon Bahamut.
So you can heal him and let him get hit and heal him to the max HP he has but if you 100% him he loses the buff
?
dungs it is, ty
use it twice
You need 2 DWT at 70 for bahamut
Post 72 it's only 1 dwt use
oh the extra thing
Since you have Phoenix Trance at that time as well
It means yes
Bahamut comes at 2 minutes
okay guys my question is ninja good in pvp
At 70
is it ~9 hunting trains for a cryptlurker upgrade item or do not all hunt trains kill the same amount of rares?
Oooo so they have to cast Dreadwyrm Trance twice first, then they can use Summon Bahamut. At 72, then it's only DWT once to use Summon Bahamut. Got it. Thank you!
Welcome to the whole reason why summoner has a two minute rotation
i did read this online, on odd numbered summons you get bahamut and even numbers are phoenix
PVP is balanced like how PVE is, play any job you like - as long as you know your skills/rotation you're golden (generally)
That's post 72
With firebird trance
is frontline the only pvp that sees some activity?

Feast is active now
No, especially not right now that Feast season is on
Due to a new feast season
There is also a dedicated Revial Wings community for those interested, yeah? Revival Wings? Havent been myself
k will check that out since frontline not popping, cheers
what attributes do smn focus on?
does each class have a restarted hunting log? I'd assume yes but I cant check since I only have one rn
Intelligence
Yes, each class has their own, separate log
any other stats?
Heres the priority pulled from the Balance, if you mean substats:
Crit > dh >= det for sub statd
yea thats what i meant
anyone know how to take a screnshot of yourself playing triple triad? it requires the target on the the npc you're playing which means i can't swivel the camera towards the front
/Gpose is the photo mode
how do you tell how many people are in your bozja instance?
Hi guys. I'm downloading the game now. What class can you recommend that can do decent damage and still provide party buffs?
!faq utility
Appreciate the responses.
Has all raid buffs in the gamr
Thanks a bunch
sorry, i meant taking a screenshot of yourself playing triple triad. /gpose doesn't work in a match
hey can anyone good at the triad card game please help me with understanding something
if someone set up their account to do the steam trial, but wants to swap to the windows trial, would they be able to use the same SE account and all that and just register PC free trial, like how if I (a PC player) wanted to try ps5 version I could do it on the same service account?
no
you would need a completely seperate account to register a new free trial
Hey guys!
hey can anyone good at the triad card game please help me with understanding something
thought so, I'll let her know! sucky tho
what's the question
#memes-and-shitposting message So what's wrong with the Materia on offer here? I'm a sprout and kinda new to Materia. I know different jobs have different preferances, but overall its Critical > direct > skill speed/Spell speed for DPS, Piety for Healers, and Tenacity for tanks.
is there a way to force yourself into a bozja instance with more people in it?
can you join me in a channel so i can voice chat you it will make it easier scryth?
Been a long while without playing ffxiv, im downloading it from the launcher and it goes rly rly slow, it will take 12h! And i have a very decent connection, it should be like 2h.
Do you know if it can be improved?
what is a good way to farm the grand company seals? daily roulette?
ah, can't sorry
you can attempt using XIVLauncher, that should have better downloads
!faq xivlauncher
i have a general question about those aoes you run around with before they drop (the ones where people need to spread to avoid piling up damage)
would a constellation like the following be bad for either player involved?
the x being the exact position where they stand.
basically my question comes down to "is it generally ok when these indicators touch?" (i expect there will be some exceptions, hence why im just asking about how the game generally handles it)
ty, same for ps4 to PC?
im trying to understand how same works
you can only have the trial on one platform @dim ridge
people telling me different things and none of that is working
yeah. free trial can't use pc and ps4 version at the same acc
if you want multiple platforms you either make a new acct or buy the game
ty just double checking to make sure I understood/make sure it wasn't specifically pc to steam
That's fine
you know me, I own the game, just got a few friends into it and the free trial I did was 2 weeks timed lol
been too long
Yes. The circle can touch, you just don't want one person (an 'X') in multiple circles
oh, i don't get same either lol
hey can anyone good at the triad card game please help me with understanding something would like to use voice chat to make it easier please
Too many things to count tbh 
Tenacity is generally ignored for tanks (because people prioritize damage, not mitigation), spell speed is CERTAINLY ignored for tanks, and skill speed is usually never melded on tanks because they can almost always get enough with just normal gear. As well they used +20 materia on level 80 gear when they could be using +40 or +60, but yeah. That Weapon is atrocious, and the rest is just bad
As long as players hitbox don't touch the aoes you're fine
That placement is ok
@faint flare@gusty cipheri see, thank you 😄
Thank you
@umbral tinsel ye it makes no sense what so ever i literally did every way people have told me and still lose :S
The players standing in the intersection of the 2 circle would also take both aoe to the face too
finally learnt Blackblood but what, there's only one skill that can increase the blood gauge, namely soul eater, and it only does 20 at a time. the heck, this is gonna take forever to fill up. am i missing something?
How dare you make me see that with my own eyes
for SUPER EXTRA CRYSTALS
It gets better at later levels
For now yes
At first you just use that skill and that's kinda it
iirc yes
I believe so
assuming you've got the GP for it
Not only can you combine those, youve got Twelves Bounty and Giving land for cheaper when its crystals only, instead of Blessed
You're probably better off farming crystals through aetherial reduction or the diadem
!action The Twelve's Bounty
really? so more and more skills can generate blood gauge at later levels? how come i dont see any other traits that says that?
Blood weapon generates it now
!action Blood Weapon
I spy with my little eye
Dont forget you can sent retainers to get crystals if youre really desperate, at level 80 mine brings back 3x100 crystals every 40 minutes 🤔
Something beginning with, do your damn job quests
ohh thats it? BW is only a 10s window.... dont we have any other reliable way to fill it up like SAM's kenki gauge?
Is Doh/DoL job quests worth doing?
Very
Very
F
!skill manipulatiob
Always, always always always do job quests
!skill leaf turn iii
Increases the chance of obtaining HQ items while gathering by 30% - 100%. Increase is determined by your perception rating. Does not increase chances for items which start at 0%.
Cannot be used with Leaf Turn.
wait you get skills?!
For the Qitari Beast Tribes, if I only have DoL leveled, can I still do all the dailies?
You get a skill that auto completes recipes 10 levels below you
Doh will also give crystals
I thought they revamped DoH/DoL
Nope. It's basically fell cleave for DRK, you don't get it often
imagine
i see.. damn.... thats quite a bummer 😦
where do i complete "Disciple of the hand"?
whatws fell cleave btw?
that launcher made my connection go from 1,5mb to 12mbs
You don't, it's a classification for crafters
fucking, amazing
!action trained eye
thats not a quest, thats just any crafting class
Warriors version of blood spiller
You also get delirium @manic schooner
Is there a good way to get level appropriate gear for Gathering/Crafting classes early on? I'm a lv. 31 botanist and gear at the marketboard is like 15-20k a piece 😦
50 gauge for damage
Which allows a free cast of any blood weapon skill for 10 seconds
i see... ok thanks
Vendors
oh ok, it says i can get this at level 15, you know where to learn this?
hello, i have a problem i play with my familly and all have delete account idk why never delete and can't connect for contact game master, how can i resolve this please?
!action delirium
just level up any crafter job to level 15
ohh good catch! but thats only 10 secs too... For SAM kenki gauge, i can fill it up 100 almost instantly, and constantly
ohh thats what it means nvm
i'm doing the botanist quests and feel very underequipped from them lol specially for getting the HQ stuff they ask for
what happens when I die besides being returned to ul'dah?
Anyone? I literally cannot find this on the internet
You lose some gear durability
Qitiri are DoL beast tribe only
So
ok thanks
My question is do I also need Miner and Botanist
That’s a dol
at 80
No
to do the beast tribe dailies
Fisher is a DoL
so just to understand glamour prism, if i apply it to a head piece, but then replace that head piece, the prism effect still stands?
You just need one
The beast tribe dailies stipulate "mining" things. So I wasn't sure
It has fishing stuff
the prism effect only affects per item
Then you just can’t do the mining
No. You glamour that specific gear piece
Okay so you cant do all the dailies if you dont have all DoL
You need to re glamour new gear
Ah ok so glamouring during levelling process is a waste
best to put the glamour in a glamour plate, so you won't waste glamour prisms
Where can I turn in gear for grand company seals?
same guy you give seals to promote with
you have to be a certain rank first but its like within the first 2-3 ranks
middle guy at the kiosk
Same person pretty sure
Should be to the left of the one you can buy stuff from. I forget his title
Personal officer
Ohh lol, Bloodspiller/Quietus is not off GCD.. now it makes mch more sense why its hard to fill up the bloodgauge lol
I'd personally recommend moving gear you want to turn in to your inventory and then using the drop down option to show only inventory items at the turn in screen so you don't accidentally give them your equipment you're using
Open up a modmail
can you make a modmail about it and give us proof
This would be a great thing to send us a modmail about instead of pinging us
How you obtain a glamour plate?
Go to an inn
!mgp
if you have done all the quests, you go to your inn
Use glam dresser
sorry, every discord has different approaches, myb
All good
Why are you pinging the mod team?
liar im new to this game dude is mad cause no one helps him with his question.
Why wouldn't the person who made the accusation ping us?
are you allowed to leave a duty if someone else leaves, someone left in our duty roullette (cause its a dungeon no one runs I think) and we can't find another healer. Or do we have to wait 15 minutes to vote abandon
You can leave

If you don't need additional progress
!action Reflect
For muscle memory
No no
Are Blue Quest with Cross important?
Wtf is going on
Well nvm
Yes they unlock stuff
It gives 3 stacks of IQ in exchange for 10 durability
And can only be used at the start
where can i find the inn? More specifically ul'dah
It'd either Reflect or Muscle Memory
Adventurer guild
Oh ok thanks
wait your a crafter too?
😮
if i preorder EW, does it come with the previous expacs?
or do i have to buy the expacs separately, then when EW comes out, i buy that?
Are there any changes in gameplay / story arcs depending how I respond in cutscenes?
not really
Yes but you don't get them til ew comes out
just maybe slightly different responses
Actually its 59
oh lol
Ok so just flavor? Thank you
You'll have to wait until November if you preorder
yep
10 away from greatness
Can you change facial features with the aesthetician? Like moles etc
If you want current content now you need to buy shadowbringers
Some
Or you can just wait and buy Endwalker when it comes out but that's the exact same as a preorder without the bonuses
kk ty
what does the heart symbol "Demand" mean in MB? its currently "1"
Quickest way to level a lvl 35 WAR now of days?
PoTD? Dungeon Spam? Just buy pots? 
How many people wishlisted it
levelling/alliance/MSQ/frontlines roulette once per day, then spam highest dungeon that's not level 50/60/70
is Mind of Mountaineer better than Unearth 2?
jump pot is technically correct
fair enough
if I just want HQ
how come grade 4 tinctures and cordials are selling so well? based on history
sellin like hotcakes
can a level 80 alchemist + 80 botanist make grade 4 tinctures/cordials with the basic lvl 80 gear self-sufficiently?
wdym basic
Thanks
I'm assuming you mean unmelded 490 or the white scrip 500 gear in which case you can but you'll need HQ materials regardless
whats the difference between reshade/gshade? is one better or more popular?
yes the gears which you can get from NPC
ok but botanist will gather all mats needed by alchemist?
is there anyway to figure out if a mining node has more than one rate
before you start?
so self sufficient?
Can i change Worlds while in Q for dungeons?
no, as you're already using duty finder
ok which classes do i need to be self sufficient as alchemist making grade 4 tinctures and cordials?
also coffee biscuit and smoked chicken are selling like hotcakes!?
Okay thanks
levequest + bis food respectively
One combat, botany and miner for the material and 100% Levi strike aethersand uptime
ah ok botany and miner i get - but i dont understand 100% levi strike aethersand uptime?
completely lost what it is
The aethersand nodes swap between botany and mining nodes
So if you only have one, you'll have to wait until those nodes are up
With Riot blade comboing after fast blade, is the 300 combo potency added to the 100 or is it just the 300
Just 300
it changes the potency
I guess I use it regardless im just trying to understand tooltips better
By default it's 100, as a combo its 300
ok thank you
@slate arrow i checked garland data and it says levinstrike aethersand cannot be gathered, only can be exchanged with white scrips
is this true?
You get it via aetherical reduction
Items from emphyeral nodes can be aetherically reduced into aether sand
which class can perform aetherical reduction? can botanist and miner do it or alchemist?
All gathering
oh ok thx
for Spirit Extract, says u need allagan tomestone of allegory
how to gather "allagan tomestone of allegory"?
ok thx, how do i procure allagan tomestone of allegory cheaply?
You can only buy the materials you can buy with tomes
Which means buying the extract off of the market board or people
oh ok, they say u can buy spriit extract from MB, but will buying it be very costly and make little profit selling grade 4 tinctures?
Ok guys question, allagan tomestones of poetics , i see auriana stuff lvl130 aelina not sure what im looking at ? Anyonr can explain in ez terms
Depends on priced
You want the ironworks gear
Ignore other menus
So auriana
is there a quicker way to sell besides right clicking each item and hitting sell?
So the word im lookiny for is ironworks
Drag the item to the vendor window
Geralt dosent matter
Hi y’all , what does LB mean? Idk if it’s just for melee jobs but just read an explanation on “ who should LB “
Idek what that means
Limit break
ty
Hi, im needing help with trying to minimize miqo tail clipping, looking online people said the female model had a lot less problems so ill probably swap but what tail clips with the least/ stays the most still
So geralts one are just bad version? And primal seems like super rare whcih im not ready yet
Any cool mount i can get befor level 50? im level 49 paladin
I'm getting really ticked at how some of outfits work but im attached to my characters generally look so i want to keep my race
Theres the behemoth one
That's just old outdated gear
What is that? The number and letter at the bottom of our icon. The one that says A, 4, 3, then 2.
Aggro
Just pick the lvl 130 stuff
Hello. I want to farm the Sophia (Extreme) Trial for goddess totems and i was wondering if its possible to solo unsynced and if it will still drop totems unsynced
limit break is shared within your party, generally the dps use LB to deal a lot of damage quickly
melee lb is more effective for single target, but caster and phys ranged lb is better than melee if there's multiple enemies
generally it's better to use caster/phys ranged lb in dungeons, during big mob pulls, as those are more dangerous for the tank
otherwise melee use them on bosses
For the gear level to get into stuff
Oh so that's what it was.
Aggro is like you becoming a decoy pretty much, right? The one for Tank?
Aggro is what makes mobs hit you
I thought LBs were used to like buff the whole group?
Perhaps I shouldn't have gave my life's story, what tail for miqo clips the least/stays the most still
possible with certain jobs but not worth the effort to solo …
Well ok. Thank you, lol XD
Or like it drains the whole party’s LB gauge ?
Aggro is how angry the current target is at me members of your party
Tank Lb buffs with large mitigation
Weapon or armor first ?
How do i join a guild?
Otherwise it's mainly damage
Does it still drop totems unsynced?

Make sense
Weapon then replace your gear startingn with the lowest level shit
Weapons > chest/legs > hands/head/feet > accessories
So u gotta coordinate that with the group to see what class will be using that n when
Ok
I weapon but overall you want the stuff to get above 124 gear score so you can do all of coils
Yes
That’s interesting
ye all loots drop unsynced, Totems, mounts, crafting mats, weapons, etc
n why does it matter who uses it out of the melees?
Tanks only wheb mechanics required it
Cause 1 melee could be doing more dps
Cause they're better
Thanks! I really want the Nothic Edge weapon you can buy
Job quest. Does that only last til level 50, or do they make new job quest like Paladin per every new expansion to even like level 80?
All the way to 70
Oh so u let the one wit lower dps do it so u don’t lose the big Dps from the other dps
try watching this https://youtu.be/HOph86MQTDg
Has this ever happened to you? You have a limit break and nobody uses it?! Well you shouldn't. People should be using it. These are strong abilities and I'm going to tell you just how to use em! A lot of people tend to just ignore it exists and lose out on something very powerful. I'll be going over different parts of the game and discussing use...
Then they go into role quests
New series of job quests every expansion until shadowbringers
Bettt tysm
AWESOME, lol XD
I'll just go with the generic tail then
And hope for the best
The fluffy one, at least on male flops absolutely everywhere
Any tips on the fastest dungeon to farm allegan tomestone allegory? Thx
Pagl'than
Your level 70 quest specifically holds a super op skill for most jobs
Or matoyas
Heroes gauntlet maybe, cuz people farm it for tea bis
Ok can I keep selecting pagl and matoya?
AWESOME, lol XD
Yes
when can i ride mounts?
Yea cuz I little time, how long does it take to complete matoya?
Main story progress gates everything
!faq mount
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
Yea do main story till it gives you one
Anyone know how quick matoya can be completed to farm Allagan tome?
Average 15mins
thanks ! 🙂
Like most dungeons
You can level using just Ishgard collectables from 21-80 in around 2-4 hours per crafter job, right? Or am I hearing this wrong

For your job gauge description
Just spam your node location skill and gather everything
hi!!, i have a question regarding fflogs... i have some echo runs... are those porcentiles compared to other echo runs too? or they are all based on normal parses and compared to normal ones?
Nodes in diadem arr 50/50
Do you unlock flying through MSQ or blue quest unlocked at a certain level?
!faq flying
'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/
Yes

Are there any website about how to build each class?
!faq balance
Idk heard rumors that they’ll make another mmo game
No
nope
Bet
EW is just the end of the current on-going arc and the start of a new one
fastest way to lvl from 1~17 is fates?
Hunting logs
I know it's balanced.
By building I meant like which is the best gears for each class, as well as what skills I don't need to save more space in the hotbar, and what combination of combos I can do. Stuff like those
ooo that's a good idea
exp from hunting logs seems to be really low tho
It's the fastest
plus you have to run all around for them and solo while fates you do as a group
anyone knows how long does support take to respond?
!faq balance
Oh ok than, lol XD
Just hit level 46 and need to get to 49 for next quest what’s the best way to level up ? I’ve don’t the daily roulette so that’s not an option

Yea wont name it against tos. Just might need to be a non to serious name as alot of names are taken.
A rule that adds a new condition to the capture mechanic. If the numbers of two or more cards have the same total when added to the numbers on the adjacent sides of the card you place, you gain control of every matching card.
This rule also allows you to score a "Combo" capture. Should the cards you capture lie adjacent to "weaker" cards (i.e. cards with smaller numbers on the neighboring sides), those cards will fall under your control as well. Only one of the two or more matching cards needs to belong to your opponent for the Plus capture mechanic to take effect.
I’m doing my Aether currents but idk what these red dots mean?
sidequest aether currents
Ah thanks
you need to do select sidequests to unlock those ones
they're blue quests
New questom , did some research , after getting ironworks, do i need relics ? Just finished arr
relics below 80 are for glam
Does any one wanna be in a set party for potd? I just realize I can’t pass 100 with random partys :v
save them for later when you're 80 in my opinion
do anyone have the Taffeta Shawl or Taffeta Loincloth
Yeah I'm no further forward. That might as well be in a different language
I just hit level 50 on my AST and when I did a window came up about job class guide and the arcana guage and divination. I want to re-read that info window, how do I bring it back up?
just a question, when an enemy does a special attack, e.g. a cone or a red circle...as soon as that danger zone is no longer visible is it safe to go in? Or do you actually have to watch them finish the animation regardless
@leaden ginkgo yep when the animation lines are gone its safe
Watch for animation of the attack
it's when the orange goes away, not when the animation is gone
No, old relics are purely glamour
so basically, if you put a card down and it's adjacent to two cards
say, you put down one in the middle, and there's two cards north and south of it immediately
your card has a 4 north, and 3 on south, which is a total of 7 (hence the plus)
the two enemy's numbers adjacent to your north and south are 2 and 5 respectively, which also add up to 7
this then applies the plus rule and swaps the two cards north and south to your color
da faq people saying two different things xD
yeah he's wrong
azeriia is the correct one
its when the orange goes away its safe
Once the aoe is gone/cast is fined
yes
The attack is gone off
that is what azeriia said
the others are incorrect, what I said is correct
Animations don't matter
you can game the way the aoes work and walk back into the animations after the damage goes off
they do the orange marker regardless of animation so it's consistent across every attack
Oh ok cool thanks ... some animations look so crazy even when the danger zone ends it looks like they are doing a pile driver right on me lmao so thought i shud confirm
as some attacks will have clearly different animations across every fight
So bought the base game on steam, am I able to buy shadowbringers on the store from here: https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/527395/final-fantasy-xiv-shadowbringers-standard-edition-pc-download on the same account?
no

This product is NOT compatible with the Steam version of FINAL FANTASY®XIV: A Realm Reborn. If you’ve purchased FINAL FANTASY® XIV: A Realm Reborn on Steam, then you must also purchase FINAL FANTASY® XIV: SHADOWBRINGERS on Steam to upgrade your existing account.
😠
even says it on the page
is it better to buy the steam version or get standalone?
i prefer standalone for more sales and a few less hoops to jump through for set-up
either is fine
kk
retainers can only equip gear they have the levels for right?
so these 2 can only wear up to lvl 6 gear right?
yes
Thx
Is it bad manners to say out loud that you need people to first time clear a trial?
No
is there a good guide for building up your triad deck? i tried fighting the guys in the saucer and beat some of the "threes" but having trouble beating anyone else
whats the original dub of the game? English or Japanese??
someone said they did the dubs at the same time with language specific scripts
people advertise it in pf constantly
yeah the japanese dub doesn't match the English dialogue
That's called localisation
but whats the intended language of the game?
yeah the english text and dub are very different from the japanese one
I mean in the chat, not in PF...
all of them
@lyric rapids im pretty sure it was written for multiple languages
i mean, either. it's a game designed for international auidneces, but it was made by the japanese
there isn't one, all of the dubs are written simultaneously
none of the languages are the "default" choice
not really bad manners but probably should just do it in PF
enjoy the one you want, there's no definitive 'original' intended experience
every language is given a rough script to localize appropriately
english dub is pretty good
does turning an item into a glamour (transmog) mean i can not use the item once it has ben glamoured
using an item for glamour doesn't destroy it in anyway
if you put it in the dresser, you can restore it to its original form
Is Heaven on High 21-30 spam, like potd is either 1-10 or 51-60
yes
thanks
yeah but could i transmog a bis item and have it as a transmog and use it when i want
because when i put my sword into a glamour i could no longer use it in my weapon slot
is there a way to change the controls so that your mouse crusor disappears
You can remove it form the dresse
like by just moving around your mouse your character changes direction
Without affecting plates
will that cost me a glamour shard thing
so basically i wanted a piece of armour as my actual stat armour but i also want a copy in the glamour
is that not possible to have both at once
put the item into the glamour dresser which will cost you 1 glamour prism. put it on the plate you want, and then remove
equip it
easy
you can remove the piece from the dresser once you apply the piece to a plate
click edit glamour plates
put the weapon on the plate, save the plate
and then remove the item from the dresser
Yes it's now in your glamour dresser
oh gotcha
so i would always have to have it essentialy stored in the dresser if i wanted to use it as a transmog
unless i apply it
then remove it
Save it on the plate and you can use the plate
What class is this char?
Samurai
I always see ppl saying you can get like half a level from dungeon roulette but it gives so little?? Do they mean only if you get adventurer in need?
ty^^
gotcha i understand now ty for the help
Roulettes are only once a dwy
When tanking, does it matter if I'm getting hit from the front or back like it does in some games?
No
Thanks 🙂
It doesn't seem like good xp, it's only 12k rn at level 50
The daily bonus is very goos
Like I get more from a fate which takes 2 seconds
The roulettes give you nothing after the daily bonus
Daily levelling roulette will give you a extremely large chunk of xp daily
Again
You NEVER spam them
Once per day only
hello, i bought chocobo stable and put my chocobo in the stable, how can i get another chocobo? or only 1 chocobo per person?
After that it'd be like entering the dungeon directly
So for sastasha you'd get good exp for a lvl 16
Thank you very much
Which there is only 1
Is it just the xp printed on there or is there a hidden bonus? Cuz like I said, 12k is next to nothing
yes
And it tells you after the run in the xp gained
the top half is the roulette bonus itself
the bottom half is the adventurer in need bonus
you are never told explicitly how much the daily roulette bonus is because how much you get scales based on your lvl vs the dungeon you get
If you've already done it, it'll say at the bottom your reward has been claimed already
And as we said, roulettes give you NOTHING after the daily bonus
Unless you qualify for Adventure in need
Which is shit and negligible
Are they worth it for DPS or no
Ok thanks

Since job quest stopped at level 70, not 80. Does that mean Endwalker won't bring any new job quest you think than? Lol XD
Quick question, if my friend thats on free trial buys the complete edition off enix's website, do they immediately lose access to the free trial, or can they just wait to enter the code in later
can enter the code later
this is probably the wrong place for it but if anyone is on lich and without a fc can you help me invite my alt to mine, im desperate
@faint flare i beat Sam level 62 quest but I have no new gear
I'm planning to upgrade the game to from free trial to steam but steam version grey out on mog station
It's at 70
I thought it was 50 60 70
Expansion jobs skip job gear of old level caps
So to get level 60 gear, I have to do level 70 quest
no
There is no 60 gwar
samurai wasn't around for heavensward so they have no 60 set
if you need lvl 60 gear, you should buy gear from idyllshire with poetics
I'll do that
anything on sale for MGP?
Campaign attendant has the sale
Job geae is entry level gear
I can't go to heavensward final dungeon cuz my item level is too low, can't get any better get
Unless I grind poetics
senorita saboteur is event exclusive then?
Yes
is ishgard restoration in the free version?
is there any good guides/rules of thumb on gear you can/cannot safely get rid of? really need to clear out my inventory more often but i don't wanna accidentally get rid of something that can't be reobtained
MSQ should be giving you good enough gear
Not quite enough for me to do the dungeon, I'm low leveled by like 10 atleast
anything with a vendor sale price can safely be rid of
for things that don't, does the game let you know before you get rid of it/not let you get rid of it at all if it's just that not-reobtainable?
pretty much nothing is not reobtainable
most quest rewards get sent to the calamity salvager npcs
general answer would be 'check calamity salvager'
Everything is reobtainable somehow
oki doke
Save for some cross over stuff
there is the occasional thing that's a lot more obnoxious to get if you throw out the free-ish one you receive though
Cross over stuff goes to calamity salvager if you got it
Even if you discard it
i'll take that over nothin lol, thanks all
Ishgard restoration scratch cards
can i train my chocobo while i feed him for color change for 6 hours?
guys, I bought the game over steam and now I have the free trial and the complete game, BUT the complete game refuses to download, any advise?
Does MSQ lead you to the quest that gives you a mount or is it a blue quest that I may have missed
it does
!faq mounts
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Besides looks, all mounts are the same speed along with being able to fly. Some mounts allow multiple people to ride at once.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
cool cool thanks
how do I do that
turn in high level crafts or gathers to ishgard restoration
how do I get my pre order EW items (on pc)
Q) Hi guys, how do I know when I have left the ARR MSQ and entered Heavensword MSQ?
the quest received music will be different
Credits will role after every Base game/exspansion
And you get a giant title screen
the Title of the next exspansion will happen
There's 2 credits
ah ok
Per expansion
ltr on it becomes very clear which patch your on
fwiw, the first quest of heavensward is "coming to ishgard"
uh I didn't get any in game mail about my pre order
did you enter the code in mogstation
whenever Haurcefaunt says "worry not dear friends" you're in heavensward
I didn't get a code
where did you order ew
how many raids are there?
Alot
numbah
then you should have an email "Square Enix Pre-order confirmation"
guys, I bought the game over steam and now I have the free trial and the complete game, BUT the complete game refuses to download, any advise?
in that order will be a link that should open to a code
enter that code into mogstation
where to get lucky carrot?
what is a lyon party?
Key itens
I'm currently doing the Castrum Lacus or what not
And the terms is very confusing
I dont know anything
People who go up top to fight lyon
the party that goes up to the top platform when he challenges you halfway through the fight
30 - 40
There is at least 12 8mans raids with 2 difficulties per expansion, 3 24man raids and 7 trials per expansion with 2 difficulties
Not counting non standard stuff
and provided there isn't covid 2, electric boogaloo, two ultimates
Is there any way to remove the blue numers from the other party members? And is there any way to change the damage font with text tools?
but that turn off my dmg aswell, no?
Can anyone here advise me on my final racing chocobo rank 9 on the road to 300 rating?
When do i get a mount?
To qualify for a chocobo mount you'll need to focus on the main story. This unlocks the first 3 dungeons, and battles the primal Ifrit in a trial between level 20-30 depending on side quests and other content you do. You then join a grand company and complete the quest My Little Chocobo. In the quest you need to purchase a Chocobo Issuance from the Quartermaster for 200 Company Seals. Seals can be acquired from doing your grand company hunting log, FATEs, or guild levequests.
TL;DR story locked, not level.
sweet
No. Your damage is called Flying Text
what about the dmg font, any clue?
Idk about modding so
are mounts unlock a main mission?
@white abyss Did anyone give you tips on racing chocobo? I need an expert.
Blue quest that's unlocked via story
It's tracked under the main scenario tracker
When available
Hey y'all. I'm playing on PC with M&K. Is there a way to click on objects through players? I keep clicking on other people when trying to go for gold piles in the Slice is Right game.
It works for selecting NPCs. I guess it'll do the same for the gold. Thanks 😄
Is there anything close to combat logs in ff14? I’d like to see how much dmg I deal
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.

Oh it’s a mod?
Num 0 will go for interactable objects and NPCs over other players
How do i change from a Gladitor to something else? I'm looking at dark knight

HW jobs are story locked
But changing classes is as easy as doing the unlock quest then equipping the weapon

Click the banner if it’s msq
I'm getting crazy lag during dungeons, but in the outside world is fine
!quest path to the past
(actually it's pretty laggy outside too)
heya guys! So I downloaded the free trial of XIV to check the game and see if I will decide to but full version or not. However I am having issues with logging in. I have enix account but signing in it seems limited to characters being typed in. I sent support for help but I def want to start playing asap. If anyone can send advice that be great!
account recovery is such a pain in the ass that i just made new squeenix account to try out ff14
Hi, I don't know if you're from EU though most servers are currently closed due to overpopulation. So you might wanna wait few hours until servers are less active, you can follow server status through this : https://fr.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/
It's in french, you can still switch to English though
When will I be able to unlock dark Knight?
Is there any way to look at all available blue quests, or do I have to teleport to each location and check the map there
after you unlocked ishgard
Once you reach Heavensward I believe
Bet ty all
How do you use the second row of abilities
So I see that I unlocked a new job at level 10. What do most people do with that?
Like from a keyboard shortcut
So I just bought the Buy FINAL FANTASY XIV: Shadowbringers Collector's Edition thru steam how do i add it to my game ?
left ctrl
Are professions considered "jobs"?
Aight
yes
does it automatically add it to my game or do i have to do something to add it?
they have their own gear and exp progression
Put the code on mogstation as usual
Got it, so safe to say most people will continue down the class path and take a profession at level 10?
jobs are your specialized classes
Crafting and gathering are completely optional
e.g. THM (class) -> BLM (job)
Ignore if you want
I haven't received code lol
I wouldn't advice to ignore though since recycling and repairing is quite interesting
Well it looks like that? does that mean i have it installed already?
Right click the game in your library
Steam keys
Does this mean that the intricate silver brocade doesn't need to be HQ?
my job lvl is 31 but main quest is lagging behind at 21, is it a good idea to get a 2nd job to ~21 and msq on them for a while?
Blessed
how does expert delivery work?
Im new lol
you turn in green or better item for guild seals
at the gc hq
You turn in gear with colored backgrounds for seals
Pink, green, blue
No..its not that, like first time logging in before full download of the game
Like this kind of login
Plus I'm from US
