Mounts FAQ

'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.

Q) Where can I find an FC for myself? I checked the Lodestone community, but not much activity there?

The community finder let's you learb about the various Fcs and you can message the leaders in game

Or apply at their fc house

This might be a dumb question but I've never bothered with housing until now...how do you buy an apartment?

[faint flare]

Go into the apartment building in the housing ward and talk to the lobby guy

Pick a random ward and go to the sub ward and there's bound to be apartment available

Your level means nothing

you cant do endgame without story

everything is locked behind it

!faq glamour

[paper dove]

blue quest at vesper bay

[zinc orbit]

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

[faint flare]

Yes

[random girder]

the 1-50 ones that end in 0 are fine

[faint flare]

Ignore poetic dungeons

[random girder]

just not 50/60/70

[warm snow]

I can't remember if any of the 1-49 dungeons end with 0 but what emerald aaid

[faint flare]

Cause theu give shit zp

Cause they were endgame dungeons

[pale vigil]

Should I be just grinding my job quests and MSQ or do the side ones as well?

[faint flare]

And had none

[faint flare]

Side quests are shit

Yellow ones

[pale vigil]

Ok

[faint flare]

!faq questicons

[zinc orbit]

What do all these quest icons mean?

- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.

[viscid fossil]

I just realize ffxiv does not have surround sound support like Nier does

[warm snow]

Because they were "endgame" of an expansion you get access to them when they're trying not to give you exp.

@cedar birch , thanks for the tip. I just selected Light DC as my role, but I dont see any new recruiting channels?

[faint flare]

There is a gap in dungeons

[warm snow]

That too

You don't have the light role

I don’t think I did dang

[faint flare]

You were directed to it before the first dungeon

try using #860652505117753384 #612757637813239808 and or #842569190410027028 @sleek igloo

[open rivet]

Is there smth like CMT but for housing items? the ingame preview is a bit lacking x.x

[pale vigil]

Wait that ring is pointless for me as I’m lvl 38

[warm snow]

You can still use it for alt jobs

[copper sorrel]

i accidently removed my echo buff in a trial, can i get it back?

You're not bound to trial limites if you nmbuy

Allll the limitations here

[faint flare]

Limitations listed above

[sleek igloo]

Q) What is a "good" FC Rank to look for when evaluating FCs?

[onyx finch]

whats the most limiting of the limitations?

of being free trial

[warm snow]

No party finder imo

[outer mural]

no party finder and party forming yeah

[warm snow]

And marketboard

/retainers

[brave eagle]

So is it just me or does the option to hide your weapons when sheathed not "stick"? Like for me I have to re-enable it every time I pull out my weapon or get into combat. Is it supposed to do that?

[onyx finch]

so i cant do dungeons at 15 if im free trial?

[upper wren]

shb, not even talked to retainer guy

[heavy jewel]

anyone have the sunspun cumulus mount?

[upper wren]

ama!

[sleek needle]

Can use duty finder

[uneven arch]

Do I need to buy the game to play? Like this? This is what I mean by login issue too

[warm snow]

You there's a button for displaying weapon on your character, also you need to save this setting to your gearset

[heavy jewel]

i noticed one time i dismounted the cloud shot forward but other times it disappears, anyone know how to get it to trigger the different animations?

[warm snow]

Not to use the free trial

[alpine shadow]

that is the collectors edition for the expansion, you want the standard edition, or try free trial.

if you are attempting free trial, then press "I do not posess a Square Enix Account"

[pale vigil]

Anyone have anything for setting up hot bars, the UI and possibly macros for dragoon?

[alpine shadow]

unless you registered trough freetrial.finalfantasyxiv.com

[uneven arch]

okay I'll try that

[warm snow]

Macros bad

[brave eagle]

Could have sworn I saved the setting just fine

[outer mural]

only macro you want is dragon sight

[warm snow]

Macros are deliberately shit in combat so you shouldn't need them

[outer mural]

otherwise macros are shit yeah

[pale vigil]

Ok

[uneven arch]

So what's diff about collection and standrad? besides price?

[alpine shadow]

ingame items

[warm snow]

Collectors has glamour, mount and minions

Bonus shit

[outer mural]

collector's edition is complete edition but it has extra goodies
complete edition is standard + shadowbringers
standard is just standard, which is 30 days of sub and restrictions lifted

[alpine shadow]

you can upgrade to collectors edition later on if you want

Quick question to make sure before i start cleaning out my armoury .

Equiped items are no longer in the armoury right ?
So if i deleted all the pieces in there while wearing my 520 tank gear it will not get deleted by accident right ?

[faint flare]

All the way to 200?

Very

[dire prawn]

I has questions about Bozja

[faint flare]

One of the rarer achievements

[dire prawn]

Are Skirmishes and CEs the fastest way to gain mettle and rank up? I need R5 for my next Bozja quest

[scarlet venture]

Is it level 50 to unlock the tower in Kugane?

[warm snow]

Yes

[random girder]

yep

[faint flare]

Yes...literally only way to get mettle

[random girder]

gotta get to kugane in msq

[warm snow]

They're the only way to gain mettle

[random girder]

which is around 61?

[dire prawn]

What about the lost fragment things I turn in for lost actions

[warm snow]

Until rank 10

[random girder]

those are mob drops

and ce

i think

[warm snow]

61 msq

[faint flare]

You get fragments from mobs

[warm snow]

EVERYTHING is locked behind main story progress

Including the ultimate jumping puzzle

[ivory olive]

Is there a way to make the Tab target only cycle between enemies that are actually in combat?

[dire prawn]

Do skirmish mobs count or just the random open-world ones

[scarlet venture]

Sorry lvl 50 in PotD to unlock the tower outside of Kugane.

[dire prawn]

61

[warm snow]

FLOOR 50 yes

[scarlet venture]

Hi, wanted to ask does it really matters which player I choose as a "recruit a friend mentor"? If I'm not mistaken I don't have to play with the guy at all

[scarlet venture]

Thanks @warm snow

Random mobs. Skirmish mobs don't give anything

[dire prawn]

HoH requires 61 and completion of F50 in PotD

[dire prawn]

Fuck

[faint flare]

What drops in bojza

[alpine shadow]

if you are the one recieving the code? no.

[random girder]

theyre also on mb

most fragments are pretty cheap now

since cll and dalriada give a fuck ton

[faint flare]

Those need higher rank

To use

[dire prawn]

All I know is I just did the quest that unlocks them and I have jack shit for actions rn

[cedar birch]

and why would it matters the other way around?

[random girder]

then youll have jack shit for a while sadly

[alpine shadow]

it depends on how long that friend subscribes, the longer the more rewards

[random girder]

but no one cares outside of raids

[dire prawn]

I got three of the ones that reduce damage by 10%

[random girder]

and youll be 10 before entering cll

around 11 or 12 probably for dr

and 25 for dal

[dire prawn]

15 is DRS right

[random girder]

yes

[cedar birch]

Can't you recruit an infinite amout of players though?

[random girder]

but just finishing zadnor requires 25

[faint flare]

Farm rank 1 mobs in zone 1 at some point

[random girder]

which is super quick

10-25 is faster than 1-10

[faint flare]

For frags

[random girder]

or at least it was for me

[outer mural]

goes up to 6 max

[dire prawn]

bet

[random girder]

comparing release week bozja to release week zadnor

[outer mural]

1 initial friend and 6 subsqeuqent ones

[cedar birch]

Oh ok thanks for answers

[random girder]

thats also the fastest method for 20/20/20 mems step

for relic

just grab bloodsucker on war

have a healer adn a dps or 2

pull everything

[faint flare]

Just a dps

[dire prawn]

I'm BLM

then find a war

Anyone got a simpler Ishgard restoration list of stuff needed to level crafters?

This one is so complicated & has a lot of extra crap in it https://shadesgamesource.com/ffxiv/crafterleveling-ss

[faint flare]

Blm can do it with Flare stsr

White.mage with seraph strike and burst for clusters

[dire prawn]

I'm fairly certain I have none of what you just mentioned

[random girder]

but you will

[faint flare]

You won't for now

They're higher rank actions

[solar bison]

sucks u are not collecting xp when u dont have dlc yet

[alpine shadow]

you'll gain alot more by just doing the msq when you unlock them

[brave eagle]

So yeah. My "hide weapons when stowed" option just ends up turning itself off the instant I get into combat, so I keep having to manually re-enable it non-stop, even if saved to a gear set.

[obsidian patio]

To add a bit of clarification; you can recruit as many people as you want, but only 5 or 6 will actually get you the feathers for recruiting them and them subscribing long enough

[cedar birch]

Oh okay, though I guess it won't matter for the player being recruited if he claims it after those 5 or 6 players

[alpine shadow]

they always get the same rewards, since they can only redeem one

[cedar birch]

Ok thanks

[serene steppe]

So how do you quickly level up BLU to 50

[idle garden]

are job quests the ones given by guildmasters?

[faint flare]

Yes

They're tracked under the main scenario tracker top left

[serene steppe]

What's the quickest way to level it?

[faint flare]

Get power levelled by someone

[obsidian patio]

Have someone kill mobs for you in a high level area

[solar bison]

can u power lvl other classes?

[faint flare]

No

[obsidian patio]

Only BLU can due to how they earn experience

[solar bison]

holy shit someone asked the same question

[serene steppe]

@faint flare so if I can get someone to kill some level 80 mobs

I'll get a crap ton of XP?

[obsidian patio]

Only up to 70 work

[serene steppe]

Ah okay

[obsidian patio]

Mobs at 71 or higher don’t give the boosted EXP that BLU gets

[idle garden]

what's blu

[obsidian patio]

Most people farm the mobs on Kholusia beach

Blue mage

[idle garden]

the opposite of red?

[faint flare]

Blue is a job that learns spells from enemies

There's over 100 spells to learn

[onyx finch]

how do i loook at the stats of my pet?

emerald carbuncle

[faint flare]

what about spells it can use

[azure sun]

Is there a place you can preview sets of gear?
on the wiki as far as i can tell you can only see individual pieces, and theyre not previewed

[faint flare]

The egi assaults

And it's basic auto

[obsidian patio]

They’re your Egi assault actions and enkindle

[faint flare]

See its skills at the bottom of actions and trait

[idle garden]

should i continue to use the spear weapon and get it as rewards for msqs or should i get other weapons so that if i want to play other classes i can

[queen bobcat]

is it a good idea to switch from a populated server like ragnarok to a small one like twintania

[wintry chasm]

Could try Eorzean Collection. IIRC they have pages for sets

[idle garden]

/should i just focus on one job

[obsidian patio]

Googling the set usually yields a picture of someone wearing the set. You can also use this link to dress up default characters of each race if you know the names of the items https://ffxiv.dlunch.net/model.html?language=2

[faint flare]

Everything is populated

[wintry chasm]

Really no point. I'm not sure what you want to achieve

[faint flare]

Server choice doesn't matter

[wintry chasm]

Also what Vinyl said

[serene steppe]

Okay loke

[queen bobcat]

ok great 😄

[heavy wadi]

there are no small servers anymore

@wintry chasm @obsidian patio thanks! thats very useful

Let's say I have someone to kill a level 70 monster and I'm level 30

How much XP am I gaining?

[faint flare]

Alot

As blue

Blue gets 10x or something mob xp

[serene steppe]

Like an insta-levelup?

[heavy wadi]

if you're blu a lot, if you're any other job then nothing

[faint flare]

Yeah

Especially low level

[idle garden]

for my first time going thru the story, should i just focus on one job?

[leaden ginkgo]

Yup

[serene steppe]

Play the job that you like the most

[idle garden]

tyty

[knotty lily]

One, or two if you're ambitious - some people want to feed extra exp if you overlevel too much but one is fine

[serene steppe]

Well I guess I'll just post something on pf then

For the BLU mage powerlevelling thing

[faint flare]

Need to not be in a party for it

You tag mobs, they kill

Sardine is good for tagging mobs

[serene steppe]

Ah I see

Maybe I'll just so a shout in Eulmore

[pale vigil]

i have been into three areas and cant find one thing to mine. i have my prospect turned on but see nothing

[serene steppe]

You're likely too low level

If you're too low levle nothing shows up

[warm snow]

Follow your job quests and you'll end up with a node finder skill

[obsidian patio]

Your gathering log shows the locations of nodes if you click the location name

You should have level one nodes directly north/northwest of the entrance to Ul’dah in central thanalan

Is there a website where people share their characters appearance data?

Probably only the first floor

Depends on the raid

But probably not

I read on the subreddit that the “lockout” for the third Nier raid was removed recently. I am going to be level 80 soon. Can you farm that third raid to get 520 gear?

[fierce tendon]

What about with shadowbringers gear? Pretty much maxed out? Is it possible then? Or do I really have no choice and duty que for it?

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[warm snow]

Yes

[obsidian patio]

With full cryptlurker you still need self-sustain

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok that seems like it would the easiest method then, thank you

[warm snow]

You can just put up a party finder group, it does drop a mount so you'll probably get people

[warm snow]

It only drops armor, no belts or accessories or weapons

[fierce tendon]

Well, mount is pretty much 100% drop right? So I would need to get new people for every run anyways

[leaden ginkgo]

I could do the roulette tomestones for those then? I think that’s for cryptlurker?

[warm snow]

Most people will stick around for a farm

[drowsy jewel]

I have a problem, i started my free trial on the square enix store, played the game to level 49, and now i want to buy the full game so i went to steam and bought the full game, It gives me a long code that i copy and paste, i go to the link where it shows registration code, i then try to login into my steam account and it says incorrect login even though its the right login

[warm snow]

"loot and scoot" players are universally despised

[warm snow]

Yeah

[leaden ginkgo]

Thank you

[boreal storm]

I at least mention how many more runs I have left in me before I leave

[warm snow]

I haven't been in party finder for a while, not since I finished out my dragon collection

[west swallow]

for "Unreal" Trial it is recommended to do it via duty finder?

[drowsy jewel]

thanks for the help! 🙂

[boreal storm]

No

[warm snow]

No, party finder only

[boreal storm]

It’s still an extreme

[west swallow]

thanks will try it

[dire prawn]

What do I do with bozjan lockboxes

[tender ice]

What should I do with all the fish I caught in Ocean Fishing?

its kinda clogging my inventory

[dull valley]

what does this symbol mean?

[solar bison]

tf is mayhap

is it a typo for maybe

[dull valley]

no its a word

[faint flare]

Party leader

[little swift]

means they're the party leader

mayhap is an old usage of maybe

[solar bison]

which is basically maybe

[dull valley]

youll find many words have different synonyms 😛

[little swift]

a lot of characters speak with old english

[dull valley]

Ive definitely had to google some of the words used lol

[dire prawn]

Oh that's what I do with BSF lockboxes

I just got a Seeing Horde Katana out of one to use on my SAM

[obsidian patio]

Talk to the locksmith in gangos/bozja to open for up for nothing but worthless fireworks random loot like materia/crafted primal weapons/flowers

Also rare chance of exclusive hairstyle/mount

[dire prawn]

I got a bunch of useless fireworks

[warm snow]

BLUE STARS EVERYWHERE

[idle juniper]

should i level my first job to 80 before starting an alt

[dire prawn]

A Battledance Materia VIII and the SAM weapon

[obsidian patio]

Purple stars*

[faint flare]

Or Be like me and get 4 Gabriels

[neat ermine]

I just got the expansion edtion, how long for me to receive my mount?

[obsidian patio]

An hour or two usually

[ionic linden]

im trying to do ocean fishing, and i cant find the bait for "the ciedaleas"

any guide that say all the bait for all the places?

[grave wind]

Will transferring the game into my ssd improve the loading times? Or is it just based on network?

Cause it's slow even on my gigabit connection

[idle juniper]

should i level my first job to 80 before starting a new job

[slim cargo]

Do I get extra exp doing beast tribe quests having eaten food? It doesn't look like I do

[dusty jungle]

y u wanna switch?

[gritty oracle]

I think so, yes

[obsidian patio]

Food experience only buffs monster kills and crafting/gathering items

[slim cargo]

Ah okay, I thought I wasn't seeing the (+3%) type thing in the chat but thought maybe it just added it on anyway lol thanks

[cerulean mauve]

Can anybody help me with ffxiv can't download patch files

[obsidian patio]

PC or steam?

[cerulean mauve]

I have done all of the solutions reccomended already

PC

[obsidian patio]

!faq quicklauncher

[zinc orbit]

Try this alternative 3rd party launcher

[obsidian patio]

This sidesteps most of the errors

[cerulean mauve]

ooh

interesting

how do iuse it

[idle juniper]

i wanna play machinist

[obsidian patio]

I can’t tell, I play on console.

[dusty jungle]

go for it

[obsidian patio]

But the GitHub has a readme

[dusty jungle]

levelling a 2nd job is pretty quick

[grave wind]

Playing as a conjurer, are there any specific guilds you recommend joining?

[obsidian patio]

Crafting/gathering classes basically operate as a giant bundle. If you want to be self-sufficient and not spend Gil buying materials from other players/the marketboard, you want to level all of them up.

You don’t really need to craft gear for yourself while going through the story since you get a ton of free gear

[grave wind]

So uhh. Botanist and leatherworks?

[subtle violet]

which custom deliveries are worth to unlock? i mean i only have Zhloe and wondering if there are any noticeable differences or it's all the same?

[obsidian patio]

All but the most recent ones give the same overall amount of scrips

With the most recent giving more

[kind bone]

is it worth doing the extreme bosses with min ilvl and no echo?

[obsidian patio]

Only if you want the challenge

[kind bone]

oh so there sno actual reward for it besides the challenge?

[leaden ginkgo]

Do HW/SB fates give company seals?

[obsidian patio]

Only Blue Mage gets achievements tailored to doing extreme/savage content like that

With the extra stipulation of the party being only blue mages

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[kind bone]

ooh ok thank you

[grave wind]

Do you get to join arcanist or bm guilds at some point?

[dire prawn]

Dumb question but does Kaiten buff other skills that also use Kenki?

[obsidian patio]

It can buff all GCDs

[rich gazelle]

What is the best weapon for a 65 MCH and RDM?

[obsidian patio]

But it’s only worth on the Iajutsus AKA Higanbana/Tenka/Midare

[dire prawn]

Either the Shire weapon you've still got, a 64 HQ crafted weapon or the 65 dungeon weapon

[valid idol]

how do u find good raiding fcs?

[obsidian patio]

You can unlock all base game classes after completing your level 10 class quest

[dire prawn]

What if I'm in Sirensong where I build Kenki like it's Christmas giveaway

[rich gazelle]

Are there anyone in Cerberus [Chaos] serves that could assist me?

[dire prawn]

Or do I just burn Kenki on the 62 skill

[obsidian patio]

You still use Kaiten for your big hit skills

But yes use Shinten to burn off excess kenki

[clear garden]

Does anyone have a resource on Free Company Workshop recipes? Preferably a list of materials so I can peruse through them and see what all the recipes are?

[vapid nymph]

if i become fisher can i still be like armourer/blacksmith or?

[obsidian patio]

FCs purely for raiding aren’t a thing for the most part. They’re more for social groups. If you want to find groups for endgame content I recommend looking through #494379215420915712

[obsidian patio]

Yes, you can grab all crafters and gatherers

[vapid nymph]

idk if i should be doing professions from low level

or how much impact on game they have cause i dont like doing professions much

[dull valley]

@vapid nymph you dont need to do them

keep working on your MSQ if you arent sure what to do

and your job quests

[obsidian patio]

Go to Garland Tools and pick “Company Drafts” for the category. That shows off all the prototypes and what they unlock

[vapid nymph]

well im sure i want to switch to rogue which arcanist guild allowed me just now

[clear garden]

Ty Wynne

[dull valley]

@vapid nymph just be careful not to swap too often or youll be underleveled and need to do some grinding to continue on the MSQ

[vapid nymph]

i plan to go something like rogue ninja samurai

and stick with samurai

or maybe skip ninja idk heard class is very hard

no clue if playing rogue till 50 is viable

[dull valley]

every class is viable for all content

just pick what you like

[vapid nymph]

so you can do hardest raids in game as rogue?

isnt that like lesser class or something?

[faint flare]

You're a ninja

Not rogue

[dull valley]

rogue is like a training wheels class before you pick a job

[faint flare]

You're never your class post 30

Classes are baby versions of their respective job

[eternal pawn]

Has anyone done the quest too close to home?

[vapid nymph]

i guess not yet

thats why i said if "rogue" is viable till 50

[eternal pawn]

It isn’t spawning the anole that I have to fight

[tardy tangle]

started playing around archer, any tips on leveling?

[faint flare]

You upgrade to ninja at 30

[faint flare]

Initiate the leve from your journal

[vapid nymph]

and after that do i become samurai at 50 or that is standalone class?

[dull valley]

seperate job

[faint flare]

It's a separate job

That you unlock at 50

[dull valley]

you can get the quest to become it later, but its not a continuation of ninja

[vapid nymph]

i see

[faint flare]

All jobs are separate from each other

Classes only go into their respective adult job

[vapid nymph]

i just heard ninjas are pretty hard class so we will see how i do i guess

is there a cheaper way to get those items? i didn't learned crafting yet and they are very pricey on the market board

[vapid nymph]

and how is samurai?

[faint flare]

Perfectly fine

High personal dps, no raid buffs

[eternal pawn]

Since I did the lvl 10 class quest do I gotta wait another lvl to change?

[faint flare]

A good samurai can carry

[clever ether]

Does it matter what class I assign my retainers?

[vapid nymph]

no raid buffs some people might have problems with that?

[hot eagle]

adventurer in need bonus for leveling roulette probably, can also do fates or gc leves

[faint flare]

Nope you can change now

[obsidian patio]

Do leveling roulette for the day if you haven’t, and try to do it as the role in need.
Past that, complete your grand company hunting log and spam fates near your level

[faint flare]

Nope, you have higher personal damage to make up for it

Balance Is very tight like thst

[vapid nymph]

i see that sounds like my cup of tea

[eternal pawn]

Where do I go? I want to stay on the archery side of classes

[tardy tangle]

what's the main stat for archers?

[faint flare]

So you wanna be a insert job here

Unlock other classes

They're at their respective guilds

[faint flare]

Dexterity

[eternal pawn]

Where are the guilds located at? And what jobs are there that are ranged?

[obsidian patio]

For physical ranged Archer/Bard is the only starting class

The other two, Machinist and Dancer, are expansion jobs.

[faint flare]

Main cities

[obsidian patio]

Archer is unlocked in New Gridania

[verbal rune]

Quick question

[eternal pawn]

Are they listed on the map?

[neat ermine]

What happened to my screen !

[verbal rune]

How can i show battle dialogs in the event log?

[cerulean mauve]

Does anybody have any knowledge/expertise/experience with "cant download patch files" error message polease?

thank you

[dusty quest]

You removed the UI. Press print screen key on your keyboard.

[eternal pawn]

I’m already an archer can I change to a different ranged class?

[obsidian patio]

Scroll lock is the default keybind I think

[dusty quest]

Oh, hadoi, not print screen.

[obsidian patio]

Edit the log filter settings for it in the character config to have them show

[old fable]

Hi, for unwanted collectables, what can I do with them?

[neat ermine]

That freezes my computer

[obsidian patio]

If you can’t turn them in, your only option is to toss them

[old fable]

thanks.

[faint flare]

The only ranged classes you have access to before expansions are Arcanist and Thaumaturge as casters

[dusty quest]

Uh, I don't know why it would do that. It's just the screenshot button, and it's the wrong one for fixing the UI. That was a derp on my part.

[verbal rune]

Yeah, I was asking what needs to be on

[faint flare]

The other physical range unlock later

[obsidian patio]

That entirely depends on what you want as visible.

[eternal pawn]

Oh what level is that ?

[obsidian patio]

I have my event log showing just NPC dialogue and linkshells/FC chat, for the most part

[verbal rune]

I'm referring to the green text tha appears in the general tab spoken by npc during battle, but that doesn't appear in the event tab

[faint flare]

Machinist unlocks at 50 and heavensward access, Dancer at 60 (and owning shadowbringers)

[obsidian patio]

NPC announcement, I think

[verbal rune]

I see, I'll try

Thanks

[obsidian patio]

The log filters show examples of each option

It should have NPC in the name of the option

[mossy moss]

Question, how do i unholster my staff and just hold it normally like i'm not ready for a fight

[heavy wadi]

press z

[flint pollen]

what is this in the game
i was running and i died and also the duty got pulled and when i wanted to commence the duty cause it would not let me cause i was dead and then when i did rez to the town i designated for and it took to long for me to get towned and my duty was lost and with a penalty
but why does it takes toooooo long to transfer maps or move on somewhere that is prompt

[mossy moss]

like when a dark knight puts his sword on his shoulder and looks super badass

how do i do that on black mage?

[faint flare]

/Cpose

[hoary veldt]

What does E10 E9 stand for?

[faint flare]

To change your idle stace

[mossy moss]

ty

[flint pollen]

now i got a wait for another duty to since i had to join again

[clever ether]

Does it matter what class I assign my retainers?

[faint flare]

Raid name (Eden) , floor number (9, 10 etc)

[hoary veldt]

Ooohh ok thanks

So coils would go like C1

[faint flare]

Partly.. Gatherers have their own pool and combats share a pool

[mossy moss]

correct

[faint flare]

Coils are T1-13

Cause arr

Coils of bahamut turn 1

[clever ether]

Okay im a big overwhelmed regarding what to pick.

[hoary veldt]

But are only goes to turn 5?

[faint flare]

And we stuck with the Turn names

No turn 13

[warm snow]

That's down to your hard drive/console

[faint flare]

Which is final coils turn 4

[hoary veldt]

Wait what

[faint flare]

Retainers can't go pass your level on that job

[tidal osprey]

https://cprewritten.net/ this is the solution

[flint pollen]

while my screen is black and why is it too long any how

[faint flare]

So combat retainers are generally your main combat job

[warm snow]

Binding coils have 5 turns
Second coils have 4 turns
Final coils have 4 turbs

5+4+4 =13

[hoary veldt]

Ooh ok that makes sense

Anything I gotta do to unlock the rest?

[flint pollen]

andi have that spinning circle on my corner

[hoary veldt]

Only got binding coils

[warm snow]

That's your pc/PlayStation loading the area

[leaden ginkgo]

so i did the monk quest, but im still a pugilist. I received some crystal which apparently will change me into a monk. How exactly do i use that crystal thing?

[mossy moss]

I think you only need to complete the first five to access the second four turns

and so on

[warm snow]

Equip, bottom right

[hoary veldt]

Ok easy enough thanks

[mossy moss]

I don't think there's any additional quests for them

[flint pollen]

what is that ?

[tidal osprey]

im joking , it's nothing

[tidal osprey]

prolly your pc or console are not good enough

[clever ether]

Ah so I need to buy level 1 stuff for my retainers?

[warm snow]

There are, it's a full quest line with a story but you're only required to clear T5 ans T9 and T13. I recommend doing them all for the story and lore tho

[vagrant vortex]

guild receptionist in lancer guild doesnt have quest, anyone ever had this happen? v weird

[clever ether]

Im 60 bard and picked archer

[leaden ginkgo]

ah thanks...fml equipping rearranged all my spells in my hotbars ¬¬

[warm snow]

/hotbar copy pgl 1 mnk 1

Replace numbers as needed

/crosshotbar for controller

[leaden ginkgo]

ohhh sweet that worked thanks

[flint pollen]

question what does the penalty do when you get it ?

[soft whale]

People often mention that Tanks have a short queue time.
Recently I have started levelling a paladin but whenever I queue for anything it takes quite a bit before it finds anything. Is there something wrong with my duty finder settings (everything off and only language English) or are queue times for Tanks just not that short.

[faint flare]

After 3 strikes you get a 30min penalty where you can't que for stuff

[mossy moss]

yeah, but do you need to do those quests outside of coils as well or do you just pick it up and go in and the whole quest finishes in there

[faint flare]

Turn on all languages

[warm snow]

You still need the quests iirc

[warm snow]

In Europe all languages is a big help

Cuz French and germans

[faint flare]

Especially on EU

[warm snow]

No Italians tho

[soft whale]

But then you can not communicate with them

[warm snow]

Racist squenix

[faint flare]

You don't need to

In dungeons

[mossy moss]

or trials

[faint flare]

Plus auto translate

Exists

[soft whale]

oh

hmm

[obsidian patio]

For not accepting a queue? If it happens 3 times you’re locked out of the duty finder for 30 minutes

[mossy moss]

all i ever said in trials was hi

and gg

xD

[faint flare]

The only things you need to communicate for is high end content

But you're never queing for that

[soft whale]

also this is just completely broken right?

[old fable]

Hi, are there any reason to keep green uniques?

[mossy moss]

but for that content you don't que

you get in a group

[flint pollen]

ok in that case would it decrease your exp gain or something that is what im aiming that ? for

[soft whale]

I mean like, it never updates for me. Queue pops faster than it updates

[faint flare]

I don't put too much stock in that cause it can fill instantly with roulettesl randos

[obsidian patio]

No. Just a simple “you can’t queue for anything” for 30 minutes

Which includes the party finder

[mossy moss]

don't pay it no mind rly, just do something while you wait

[flint pollen]

ok thx wynne cause im not happy

[mossy moss]

i usually do my beast tribe quests while i'm waiting

[plain pilot]

hi does anyone know which is the highest population on light?

[vagrant vortex]

tank queue time is usually 5min ime, heal insta

[flint pollen]

oh gee why a low dungion

[mossy moss]

i think it's lich, but most servers if not all of them are super populated

[opal sorrel]

Is there a gearing guide somewhere

[vagrant vortex]

anyone know why guild receptionist at LNC doesnt have a q

[mossy moss]

level?

[vagrant vortex]

54

tried changing classes

theres just no quest from her

its really weird

i just picked up conjurer

i was like ok lets pick up lnc

[soft whale]

Anyway, thanks, adding all languages did make it faster (which is no surprise).

[vagrant vortex]

nope

[mossy moss]

she should have a quest for you

if not get to lvl 5

[vagrant vortex]

;/

[hushed zealot]

Odd wonder
Were Poetics something else before?

[mossy moss]

should be there at that point

[vagrant vortex]

i cant be a lnc

like guild receptionist wont let me initiate it

to talk to the guild master

idk why

v weird

[mossy moss]

go to the master

[vagrant vortex]

says i need to be a lnc

..oh maybe i already did it

_>

[mossy moss]

do you have your soul stone equipped?

[vagrant vortex]

i tried both

[mossy moss]

check if you have the lancer weapon as well

if you do equip it

and you'll become a lancer

[vagrant vortex]

word i dont but i mustve thrown it awya

sorry for confusion thx

[mossy moss]

i think you can buy one

at a weapons master

[warm snow]

Check your character menu for level in lancer

[mossy moss]

^ also that

forgot you can do that tbh xD

Alexander and Omega raid series tie into a dungeon for Shadowbringers and help lead into minor details for Shadowbringers.

Im not bothered either way, just wondering if I can automate it

[obsidian patio]

You need to start the macro manually

[worthy drift]

Hey lads! I am returning to the game after god knows how long. I can't remember a thing honestly, and my bags are full to the brim with meals, mats, materia, etc. Do I sell them on the market?

[worthy drift]

I feel like it's mostly value-less crap.

[warm snow]

They're not worth using

[obsidian patio]

If the item has a shop selling price below 100 Gil, they’re probably worthless on the marketboard and best sold to an NPC

Oh, now that's a good tip.

It seems like I will be vendoring most of my bag then :D

[obsidian patio]

Are you trying to use the greens inside a city?

[vapid nymph]

it says 14ms but idk

the game feels delayed somehow

[late coyote]

shoul i bother buying the lvl 60 stuff or is it betetr to save the feathers?

[vapid nymph]

like i can start moving at last 0.5s of cast and it wont interrupt or i move out of red circle and i still take dmg

[sonic folio]

Does my friend need to be online for me to send them a friend request? I've put their name in the player search, but nothing comes back

[dreamy reef]

no it was while out going after something

[obsidian patio]

All the level 50/60/70 gear are worth the same amount of poetics, so if you want to get the earlier sets it’s fine

[late coyote]

i am only lvl 63 i cant buy the 70 ones :p

i do have full of the augmented gear i got from the poetics tho

[warm snow]

Moving during the last 0.5s is normal. That's built in lag compensation. As for aoes. They snapshot once the cast ends and/or the aoe marker disappears

[clever frigate]

is there any point for new players for joining guild or anything like that? seems like I can do everything solo

[vapid nymph]

i see so its not really delay/lags its just how it is

[warm snow]

Social aspects

[warm snow]

Pretty much

[vapid nymph]

i was afraid i would have to change server

[warm snow]

As I understand it its different to wow but never played never gonna play

[vapid nymph]

yea it is

[warm snow]

Abusing that 0.5s is called slide casting

[vapid nymph]

the gcd is so long hopefully it gets better

i do skill immediately press next one but yea gcd too long

[late coyote]

wait so looking at more of his gear i exhange the lvl 60 ones for 70 ones with extra poetics?

[warm snow]

It does but a lot of jobs keep the 2.5 gcd

[vapid nymph]

how bout samurai?

[warm snow]

The complexity comes moreso from weaving

Samurai has a built in gcd reduction buff

I can't remember if they also use skill speed but I think they do

Even at endgame most jobs only use skill/spell speed to remove 0.5s of the gcd

[obsidian patio]

No the gear sets are completely separate, but are bought with the same currency

[vapid nymph]

i see well i will need to get used to it im used to immediately using next skill but here i press next skill it does nothing and i have to press it like 10times for it to do the skill

[worthy drift]

So, some items don't have a shop selling price. But when they do, it's completely different from the price on the market. What is a shop selling price to begin with, then?

[late coyote]

but looking here the shire gear augmentation need 100 poetics and then 1 pice of gear called the same but without the augmented part?

[dire prawn]

You're looking at the wrong thing

Unaugmented Shire gear doesn't exist

[clever ether]

Best way to get 55 weapon?

I have a 47 weapon on my SCH at lvl 57.

[late coyote]

so all that shire gear augmentation and scaevan gear augmentation is old stuff and not available' anymore?

[dire prawn]

What MSQ are you at

Because that's disgusting

[warm snow]

It's for people that come back to the game after years away and still have the old gear

[clever ether]

Im not maining SCH, im almost done with HW.

[dire prawn]

Why do you not have the Ironworks weapon

[warm snow]

@vapid nymph this is what the samurai opener is like at 80, complexity in ff14 comes from weaving ogcds between gcds

[acoustic thorn]

hi, i just activated my 30 day sub, and i was wondering if there are like player guilds in the game? or do you just party recruit for dungeons and raids

[late coyote]

ah ok so should i save my feathers to buy the chest legs and wep for 70 or get the ones at lvl 60 rn?

[clever ether]

What is Ironworks weapon?

[warm snow]

We have free companies (guilds) but they're all social not for raiding

[acoustic thorn]

oh ok ok ty

[vapid nymph]

i see so there are skills that dont have gcd basically a "filler" when you use gcd skill?

[dire prawn]

[gloomy bridge]

Can I farm Poetics by running trials?

[vapid nymph]

doesnt look like many to me

[warm snow]

Yes but it's not very efficient

[gloomy bridge]

Gotcha, are Raids the best way?

(aside from dailies)

[vapid nymph]

[livid basin]

[leaden ginkgo]

you'll realize soon poor child

[acoustic thorn]

is there a player made guide online? i came from bdo and there was a website that had guides covering every aspect of the game, so i was wondering if there is something similar

[warm snow]

There's not as many buttons as other mmo as they want you to be able to do your main combo on a controller

@acoustic thorn weskalber youtube, your first day series

[vapid nymph]

depends if this game is more complex than for example rogue rotation in wow

[warm snow]

Should cover everything you'll ever need

[acoustic thorn]

thanks

[deep shell]

my game is going crazy idk what is going on, and it's also stuck in full screen mode and not windowed, can anyone please help me?

[warm snow]

Map is being spammed

[deep shell]

this is all happening without me clicking anything and only happens inside the game window - nothing is being shadow pressed outside

it's not just map, it's all of my keyboard keys

[warm snow]

And looks like you're super zoomed in so your character model is clipping

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

[deep shell]

|:

yes, I have, twice...

[warm snow]

And your pc?

[deep shell]

this is happening by itself, the zoom and the moving and the map and other keys spamming. yes, I have tried rebooting too

[warm snow]

Did you knock your keyboard or anything?

[deep shell]

again - outside of the game (in discord for exmaple, right now), no extra keys are being pressed.

only inside the game's window does this happen.

[warm snow]

That is fucking weird, idk #technology-discussion might know??

[vapid nymph]

around when do you get your first mount?

[warm snow]
