[frozen wind]

now how do i upgrade it?

and should I always aim to upgrade weaposn first

then gear last?

[willow sparrow]

where?

[obsidian patio]

Weapon first in general, yes.

[outer mural]

wdym

you go to mogstation, log in, boom

[willow sparrow]

It just store items

[obsidian patio]

After you have the weapon and upgrade item, go to Shee-tatch > cryptlurker gear exchange.

[willow sparrow]

where can I mange account stuff?

[obsidian patio]

Go to “Your Account”

That’s your account management

[frozen wind]

it says i need crypt ester

where do i get crpyt ester?

[obsidian patio]

Fathard > Glorious Gewgaws

[willow sparrow]

oh I went wrong then

[outer mural]

fyi you're already probably logged in since you can access the cosmetics store

[frozen wind]

alright ty

[outer mural]

so just go back to the right page

[frozen wind]

i kind of wish they would just make this ll on one npc

its kind of confusing to hve to go bcak and forth

[obsidian patio]

The NPC would have WAY too many menus if it was all in one

[nimble holly]

does the lord of far waters acheivement require ocean fishing?

[frozen wind]

any way for me to get more materia slots on my 530 weapon?

[obsidian patio]

Nope

[robust crow]

no lol

[frozen wind]

well big f

[robust crow]

why is that a big F

no 520 or higher item has more than 2 meld slots

[faint flare]

Materia is only a tiny boost anywau

[robust crow]

pentamelding only exists for i510 stuff and was only relevant during the beginning of the tier

[frozen wind]

last question

do i only get one coin from the nier raids per week?

[faint flare]

Not anymore

[frozen wind]

or can i keep farming them to upgrade

[obsidian patio]

Yes you do, since they’re in the Fishing Guide

[faint flare]

Freely farmable

[frozen wind]

gotcha ty

[hearty rover]

is there any place or FC that has an active community around extreme trails? i cleared ARR and really want to do all the ex trials in ARR

[frozen wind]

it seems like a pain to have to do 3 puppet coins each time to upgrade every gear

is there a fster way outside of neir?

[robust crow]

do savage

[faint flare]

Savage

[robust crow]

this is the non-raider option

[obsidian patio]

Nier is the alternative for casual players

[robust crow]

either farm hunt trains or nier coins

[frozen wind]

which version of savage?

[robust crow]

dusting comes from e10s

[faint flare]

10s for armour and accessories

[robust crow]

twine from e11s

[faint flare]

Oh yeah 1p is just accwss

[frozen wind]

dusting?

[robust crow]

crypt dusting

[faint flare]

For accessories

[robust crow]

which is what you bought with nier coins

it drops from every clear of e10s too

[faint flare]

Ester is weapons

Twine is armour

Dusting for accessories

[robust crow]

no one really gives a fuck about the ester though

it's the twine and dusting you really want

[quick sage]

Can you buy the Gabriel mount?

[faint flare]

Yes

[robust crow]

yes, from marketboard

[faint flare]

Both versions

[quick sage]

What’s the key called?

[faint flare]

Just type Gabriel

[robust crow]

it's some long bullshit

[quick sage]

It’s not popping up

When I type Gabriel

[robust crow]

gabriel identification key alpha or some shit

[faint flare]

Turn on partial match

[frozen wind]

do i need to be disciple to dust ?

[faint flare]

Wut

[tranquil wolf]

when can i unlock lvl50+ skills?

[frozen wind]

disciple of land/craft

[quick sage]

I see it

Which is better?

[frozen wind]

what the crafting professions are

[faint flare]

When you get to heavensward

[robust crow]

if i understood your question right..? no, you don't need any DoL or DoH to upgrade your crypt gear

[quick sage]

The Gabriel mark 3 or regular,

[tranquil wolf]

o-k

[frozen wind]

no i mean to dust the stuff

[faint flare]

No crafter or gathering dusts

[robust crow]

....what?

no you can't desynth the current tier gear

because it's current tier

probably after EW release they'll let you desynth it

[frozen wind]

Sorry, i was under the impression like WoW, you would disenchant gear to get material

[faint flare]

That's desynth

[frozen wind]

so that was what i was thinking when i asked the question

[robust crow]

no

you cannot do that

[frozen wind]

so just do savage and get stuff?

[leaden ginkgo]

yup

[frozen wind]

what stuff should i look for to get

[faint flare]

You desynth non current gear for mats

[frozen wind]

to upgrade my gear

[robust crow]

kokami

read my gearing guide

that's pinned in this channel

those are your paths for upgrade

ff14 gearing is incredibly straightforward

unlike wow

every class has an exact BiS with specific pieces that have a defined route to obtain

in addition to that, every class has a BiS that is some combination of savage + aug. crypt gear

if you do not want to do savage at all then your best gear is just gonna be full aug. crypt

[frozen wind]

im looking at the pinned thing

[robust crow]

which is only slightly worse than actual bis with both savage + aug.crypt

[frozen wind]

but all its giving me is 520 gear

[frozen wind]

unless this is the wrong one

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/287679207432257538/837176031399116841/unknown.png

[low lynx]

is it recommended to buy shire accessories

[hearty rover]

kokami whats ur lvl

[frozen wind]

max

[hearty rover]

ya thats the right srpeadsheet

[frozen wind]

isnt it 530?

[faint flare]

"run savage for 530"

[robust crow]

that is the exact one

[leaden ginkgo]

oh wait

[robust crow]

i have sections explaining how to upgrade 510 to 520

[frozen wind]

so just spam eden 9-12 then to get 530 gear

my gears all 520

[robust crow]

eden 9-12 SAVAGE to get 530 gear, yes

[faint flare]

Yes, and upgrades for cryptlurker

!faq savageloot

[zinc orbit]

What floors of savage drop which items?

Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Glaze
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Twine + Solvent
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion

Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.

Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.

The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests

[faint flare]

See what each floor.drops

[robust crow]

there's only 2 sets of i530 gear

savage and aug. crypt

[faint flare]

Ignore the rules bit, they're disabled for now

[robust crow]

no others

[frozen wind]

do i need to have the previous savage unlocked or done to get my rewards

[robust crow]

no

[faint flare]

No

[robust crow]

you just need to clear e9-12s for their respective drops

[frozen wind]

ah alright thats simple enough!

which e9-e12 is the easiest to do /spam

[robust crow]

accessories in e9s
head, helm, feet + dusting in e10s
head, helm, feet, legs + twine and ester in e11s
weapon and chest in e12s

[faint flare]

They drop different things

See the loot list in the faq

[frozen wind]

so should I do e11 and e12 then ?

[robust crow]

you should start on e9s

[faint flare]

^

Otherwise you'll get your shit punched in real fasy

[frozen wind]

why e9 first if im aiming to get ester?

[robust crow]

it doesn't sound like you've raided savage before

lol

well

like I said before

[frozen wind]

no i started the game 3 months ago

im a wow refugee so im still relatively new

[robust crow]

1. people don't give a shit about ester and neither should you

[faint flare]

Savage is a much step up in difficulty

[robust crow]

2. start from the bottom so you don't trap some e11s prog

but yeah very pog

Do you get access the new residence district fairly early on in stormblood?

[robust crow]

on that same note, you can also disable other people's debuffs on the target

ah ok, thats good to know. I tend to have sensory issues being on the autism spectrum, so sometimes it can be a bit too much

[twilit arch]

as soon as you get to kugane, yeah

[deep oak]

okay awesome, ty!

[vocal zenith]

What skill effects should a DRG focus on?

[robust crow]

well it's funny you mention this because this current raid tier there's a mechanic that's like literally impossible to see without turning other people's effects off

[robust crow]

what? do your rotation correctly

that's what you should focus on

[vocal zenith]

I’m sorry, I mean item effects. Such as skill speed, vitality, crit, etc?

[robust crow]

are you level 80 yet

[grand ember]

haha. I am nowhere near that. I am just barely into HW

[grim maple]

is a raid just a dungeon but with more ppl?

[jade quartz]

While leveling, only consider weapon damage and main stat (strength)

[robust crow]

not exactly

[jade quartz]

There are two kinds of raids

[robust crow]

"raid" refers to a lot of things

[jade quartz]

Alliance raids (24man) basically yes

Normal 8man raids are each basically a single boss fight, but they come in groups of four duties that comprise a “raid tier”

[grim maple]

ooh

[ripe hound]

And “Raiding” usually means doing Extreme, Savage, and Ultimate with a group of people or PF

[leaden ginkgo]

I started Stormblood and the MSQs are starting to splint into branches.

For ex.

2 MSQs available at the same time. I started one, now that 1 of 2 MSQ has opened up 2 ADITIONAL MSQs at the same time. So I have:

Branch 1 > Quest 1 (complete) > 2 (not done) 3> (not done)
Branch 2> Quest 1 (not done) > 2?

[jade quartz]

I don’t remember that ever happening

But either way

You will have to do all the quests

[leaden ginkgo]

Im just scared im going out of some sort of order

[twilit arch]

no

its literally no different than the start of heavensward

[faint flare]

You can't go out of order

[twilit arch]

where you had two msq chains with the brothers

you have to complete both

to progress

[leaden ginkgo]

U can see it here. 2 quests now available from Branch 1 that I chose.

Branch 2 I still havent done the first quest, and u can see it accepted in my quest list below Minimap

[twilit arch]

it doesn't matter

you have to do both sets to progress msq

[jade quartz]

Oh yeah those are just

Chores to do

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh okay, thank you guys!

[jade quartz]

You had a similar thing with the churning mists Moogles

Will have to do all three to reach the next quest

[leaden ginkgo]

Yea, but those were all at once, and didnt have 2 branches that also additionally split - so I got more confused

[sacred oracle]

I got bluescreen while typing

So weird

[solar bison]

is there a limit for tomestone poetic? is it daily? per a dungeon or once

[faint flare]

Nope

Can only hold 2k at a time

[solar bison]

so u can just farm them?

[faint flare]

No other limits

[solar bison]

is it end game?

[faint flare]

It's old endgame currency

For old endgame gear

[open ember]

Endgame currency is Revelation and Allegory

Poetics is everything 70 and under

[solar bison]

wait why do lvl 70 trials give 10 but lvl 50 gives 100? WTF

[faint flare]

!faq grandcompany

[zinc orbit]

Grand Company FAQ

Which Grand Company should I choose?

The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:

Grand Company Gear

How do I get Grand Company Seals?

You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.

[rich idol]

question about retainers, I remember I had to be higher level of the class that my retainer is in order to level them up, but my Bard is 70 and my Retainer is 71 while it's also a bard, is the rule removed? can I level a bard class retainer up without leveling my own bard?

[faint flare]

No

[rich idol]

so how can my retainer be 71 while I'm 70? how did I do that? is it even normal?

[faint flare]

It's not

[leaden ginkgo]

which company is this one

[feral nebula]

Where to get decent iLvl weapons as a recent lvl 80 other than Market Board?

[faint flare]

Diamond Ex, relics, cryptlurker weapon

[teal orbit]

Are some ff14 raids more reaction/dodging focused than others?

Looking at titan for example

[faint flare]

I mean dodging aoes is always there

But mechanics will always happen in the same spot

[teal orbit]

yeah but some bosses feel like they're way more focused on dodging aoes

[faint flare]

Just a matter of where they go and what role for the mechanic you are

[teal orbit]

while others feel more static/movement is more about doing mechanics

What are some mechanics that you rlly like & dislike personally?

[faint flare]

I don't really hate any mechanic really

Except like Stuff that forced you to stop dps or forced downtime

Those are just generally ass and make me have to think about rotations

[soft wasp]

umm, anyone know why discord can't detect ffxiv.. ?
i can't stream my ffxiv on discord

seems i cant find the answer on google

[crystal eagle]

so I just reached lvl 60 on my main job, I already bought the complete edition but havent activated it yet. I was planning to get the hydobus mount from fishing, can I easily get it on free trial or should I activate the full game first?

[faint flare]

The shark? It's much easier to get at higher level

[quiet condor]

now that i am in HW, should I just go through the MSQ without worrying about gear for now? I have mostly all IW gear

[faint flare]

Cause more Gp and accesd to double hook

Getting 3 double hooks during spectral currents is alot of points

[teal orbit]

is there a compendium somewhere that has a lot of mechanics catalogued?

[faint flare]

Not really

[teal orbit]

stack aoe, meteor aoe, tankbuster raidbuster all that stuff

[feral nebula]

there are youtube videos explaining mechanics and what they mean

not sure about a compendium tho

[teal orbit]

I watched one

[faint flare]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MX0RjPS4gtT6YI5Szxlsin9hcaohnEQQC7zNdrDHBrQ/edit#gid=168183993

[faint flare]

Try looking in here

[atomic stump]

Are the daily and weekly marks the only way to get alliance seals?

[faint flare]

No

A and S ranks

[atomic stump]

oh, those are a thing in ARR?

I never see trains for them

[faint flare]

Cause they die in like 3 seconds to a lv80

[open ember]

BLU Carnival runs give alliance seals too

[teal orbit]

Are there raids where it's possible that you can LB3 2 times?

[open ember]

Yes

But

Its scripted to happen

[faint flare]

If it forces an Lb use

Like Alexander 12

[open ember]

A few fights in Shadowbringers does this

[faint flare]

That forces a tank LB

[teal orbit]

You artificially regen LB?

forced LB's are kino

I'm a new player but watched UWU

[faint flare]

Some fights give yoy a large amount of Lb at specific mob deaths

Like again, Alexander 12

[teal orbit]

that sequence of ranged dps LB/healer LB/melee dps LB/tank LB

[faint flare]

The general time mobs give a large chunk of LB

[teal orbit]

pretty neat

[faint flare]

So you can tank LB divine judgment

[teal orbit]

TEA also has a forced tank LB

[open ember]

Not really "artificially" the fight forces the gauge to fill fast so you can use it. More like "you must use it"

[faint flare]

All ultimates have a forced Tank LB

Well a needed ine

[teal orbit]

Tank LB's are the most common right

[faint flare]

Not really

[teal orbit]

I mean forced tank LB's

[faint flare]

They're sparce

[teal orbit]

def the most flashy

[faint flare]

Only like...2 fights this expansion needed it

SoS and TEA

[open ember]

Alphascape v3.0 has a forced DPS lb at the level checker so not all forced LBs are for the tanks

[teal orbit]

whats SoS

[faint flare]

Seat of Sacrifice

It's a VERY spoilers fight

[obsidian patio]

You don’t need DPS lb for O11N

[teal orbit]

oh ok

how common are DPS checks

well every boss has an enrage I guess but

[dim monolith]

can someone help me understand choco breeding - is this a good chocobo?

[faint flare]

The entire fight in high end

Cause enrage

[slate arrow]

Yes, assuming you get the 5 start stats for the parentage

[faint flare]

Add phase dps checks are somewhat common

[dim monolith]

which stats are passed on?

[teal orbit]

How strong are DPS LB's btw

[obsidian patio]

!faq limitbreak

[zinc orbit]

How Does Limit Break Work?

Resources by Allagan Studies
Limit Break Explained
Shadowbringers Limit Break Video

[teal orbit]

9k potency on the melee one

[faint flare]

Like 1-2%

[teal orbit]

How long does it take on avg to deal as much damage as a melee dps LB3?

[slate arrow]

One of each, but it's a coin toss. So from both sets, one is passed on per stat. So maximum speed woll pass on either 3 or 5 starts, same with accel, etc etc etc

[obsidian patio]

Limit breaks use their own damage calculation

[faint flare]

A good whioe

[obsidian patio]

So saying that they have a potency isn’t accurate and comes from outdated understanding of it

[faint flare]

Lb is always worth using

[teal orbit]

DPS checks have to be balanced around those powerful dps LB's right

[faint flare]

Nah

[slate arrow]

And then when you go to register your Chocobo, it's another coin flip based on your passed on stars @dim monolith

[dim monolith]

oh so i should just try and get a max stat choco to breed from vendor

[faint flare]

Cause you usually don't have them by then

For any add dps checks

[teal orbit]

It's still written like that on the wiki

Is the tank one atleast accurate? 80% dmg reduction ?

[obsidian patio]

Wikis can be outdated.

[faint flare]

Yes

[obsidian patio]

Healer/tank are accurate

I logged into my lvl 50 monk for the first time since 2016, but I find myself lost, overwhelmed, and dealing with a UI that is unusable. Part of me wants to pull the plug and start all over, considering my fiance wants to start playing the game too. Is it an awful idea to start fresh with her on another server as a different job? I don't think I have many mounts, only 100k Gil on my current toon.

I think it'd be nice to relive the MSQ, and slowly get used to me new job (WHM) without all the bloat from my original character.

[dreamy reef]

is there a setting in game where it will dismount u if u are going into battle

[faint flare]

No

[open ember]

I personally wouldn't

[shell skiff]

Hey guys I just bought the cash shop item where I can change my appearance but I don’t know how to get there. I did the strip naked and logged out but it keeps saying to go to sub command menu idk where that is ?

[dreamy reef]

ok damn that would be nice

[faint flare]

Right click the character name

On the list

[uneven wind]

Could I still level along with my fiance even though I've done the MSQ?

[shell skiff]

Oh ok ! Thanks! Literally pulling my hair trying to figure it out

[eternal pawn]

Question where is this? I can’t find it and I’m right on the marker

[errant swan]

Where do you get the Cryptlurker gear?

[faint flare]

Eulmore with revelation

[errant swan]

TY

[open ember]

You could just accompany them, helping them with mobs and dunegons then when they get to the same MSQ you as you they'll level with you

Lv50 is just a tad too much work to just "start over"

[storm cosmos]

will ishgard restoration stuff still be available when housing arrives?

[uneven wind]

But I don't see myself touching monk again lol

[open ember]

If you were mayhap lv13 or something it would be better but lv50 is alot

You can level another class

[faint flare]

Yes

[open ember]

You are not limited to one class per character

[storm cosmos]

whew thanks

[open ember]

Remember MSQ level and class level are not the same

[verbal rune]

Tbf leveling another class without msq exp boost is also a pain

You have to run dungeon multiple times to cover for that

[uneven wind]

At least I'll be running as a healer or tank, so I can queue quick

[verbal rune]

If you're gonna replay the story anyway, I would say why not

[uneven wind]

I dunno... maybe I just need to tweak my UI, and that'll sort out most of my frustrations

[open ember]

I'm not gonna stop one from starting over but that's just my honest opinion.

[verbal rune]

I do agree that arr is a slog

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey guys I have the Starter Edition (ARR + Heavensward) and I wanted to get ShB - can I buy the Complete Edition? (scroll down on this page) It's 60% off where I live

[faint flare]

No

You just need shadowbringers

[uneven wind]

I just feel like levelling with her might be weird with the MSQ disparity... I'm not sure how to go about it

[leaden ginkgo]

So if I buy the Complete Edition will it not let me add it or something? @faint flare

[faint flare]

It will error as it tries to give you the Base game

Which you own

[uneven wind]

Because the most direct method of levelling is following the MSQ anyway, right?

[storm cosmos]

one more question, for the pvp warstead mounts - can you only have the one associated with your current grand company? i.e. I'm in immortal flames, if I get 100 victories in frontline do I get the flames horse or the horse of whatever random team I get assigned in frontlines?

[leaden ginkgo]

Damn, it doesn't even say that on the MogStation... that's kinda dumb. I almost just threw 16 bucks away.

[open ember]

There's other ways to level

[random girder]

im "leveling" with a sprout friend rn, i jsut grind dungeons while hes offline so im caught up with him when he plays again

[faint flare]

Complete is starter + shadowbringers

[open ember]

But it involves deep dunegon or duengon runs

[verbal rune]

As someone who power leveled all class to lvl 30 and some to 50

As a healer you won't find a lot of problems, you'll just have to rerun dungeons a bunch

[leaden ginkgo]

I can't find the option to buy ShB anywhere - and ShB individually is 40 bucks whereas the Complete Edition is 16, so I can see lots of people spending 16 bucks just to get an error

[uneven wind]

So I just escort them around while they do MSQ, and then finally continue it with them once they're caught up

!faq mounts

[zinc orbit]

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.

Got a few questions before I download:
1.Can you choose what weapon(one handed, twohanded)/armor(light, heavy etc.) you'll be using or is it locked to your class?
2. Do you have a strict rotation or can you switch the order of spells a bit?
3. What is endgame content and are the raids good?

You can play all jobs to cap, and switch easily with the press of a button as long as you’re not in combat or in an instance. Like RuneScape? I guess in the vaguest of terms but I wouldn’t really compare them

[halcyon oyster]

Seems like all the interesting mounts are on the mog station.

Turn in 5 unwanted materia and get a random materia, with a small chance to be higher grade

You should wait until you're starting that expac. Some of them have significant spoilers for the expansion before it

Could be item level requirement, like higher materias need higher item level minimum to use on certain items?

if they do, it's an insignificant amount

You can max every job doing Deep Dungeon/Bozja, and every profession in ishgard restoration.

[wooden mountain]

Hi, recently i unlocked the botanist and miner skills Prune, but except for Prune 2, I see no point in ever using Prune 1 unless i'm missing something. Is it useful on higher levels? (currently botanist/miner 62 and yet to unlock stormblood)

so i cant "transmog" glamour if i dont have profession to craft the stuff?

[viral mantle]

Cuz I'd have missed it if I didn't read the wiki.

[gloomy bridge]

Is it possible to macro combo skills into one button like how it auto does it for you in PvP frontlines?

Basically MSQ is top priority. Side content isn't super important for story

[faint flare]

No

What's the atmosphere with jobs in end game content, savages, ultimates, extremes. Are there jobs that are strongly preferred?

[simple zephyr]

Should I stick with Trial or the Full Game?

[dire prawn]

All of them

[leaden ginkgo]

Or it's one time per account?

[vapid nymph]

[faint flare]

Ninja has a shadow dash. Dancer has a dash forward...dragoon has a backflip... Black mage can teleport/slide to people and their leylines... Red mage has a dash to boss and backflip

[leaden ginkgo]

https://i.imgur.com/xcR04De.png are any of these even worth doing? non of them seem important at all

just extra xp from the looks of it

[faint flare]

Yellow quests are just lore

[vapid nymph]

i wish there was option to hide quests that are like 15lvls lower than your current job or something

[heavy grove]

What are the jobs that were introduced in Shadowbringer expansion?

[faint flare]

Dancer and gunbreaker

[heavy grove]

Looking at trailer, makes me think it was Dark Knight too. 🙂

[dire prawn]

Nope

[faint flare]

That was heavensward

[dire prawn]

Dark Knight was introduced in Heavensward

[faint flare]

Poster jobs don't mean anything

[dire prawn]

It's just that the WoL is a DRK in the ShB trailer

[leaden ginkgo]

[dire prawn]

He's a WAR in the ARR trailer, DRG in the HW trailer, MNK/SAM in the SB trailer, DRK in the ShB trailer and PLD in the EW trailer

[fast talon]

[upper cove]

Is there an option where we can see any unclaimed achievement rewards or do we have to go list by list?

[proud willow]

you can filter to only show unclaimed rewards, I think

but you do have to click through each category

[upper cove]

Aight thanks I'll try it out!

That's still much better than manually looking through

[plain python]

how to backpedal in legacy mode? I forgot

[wooden mountain]

Found the answer, you can stack Prune with Leaf Turn/Unearthen

[pure lion]

hi guys just got out of ishgard and cant fly anymore is that normal?

[dire prawn]

Yes

[heavy grove]

Yeah

[midnight yew]

What is a cheap materia I can throw onto the hammer for the lvl 20 blacksmith quest?

[heavy grove]

Heavensward zones unlock flying by getting aether currents

[wild dragon]

any, materia isnt worth anything early on

[pure lion]

how do i get it / the compass

[heavy grove]

Go to Menu > Travel > Aether Currents to open Aether currents menu.
Some unlocks by doing side quests, some by encountering aether currents on the zone
You can find your compass in your Bag > Key Items

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

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

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

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

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

[dire prawn]

Alternatively

If you just left Ishgard for the first time you don't have the compass or aether currents so do your msq

:^)

[remote valve]

does choosing which grand company matter?

[upper cove]

Any video recommendations for a good 1.0 story summary?

@remote valve only glamour wise

You can switch again and not lose progress for your current Gc

[indigo violet]

Is there an LFG channel? i do not see one

[upper cove]

By theres a 2 week switching cool down

[zenith halo]

What are the perks of Monk? Cuz im maining it

[heavy grove]

There's a Party Finder in the game

But no specific channel i think

[upper cove]

@zenith halo fast paced combat. Really satisfying when you can keep up your rotation and hit positionals

Its gcd cool down is innately faster than other jobs with this trait greased lightning

[zenith halo]

What about damage?

!faq meta

[zinc orbit]

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

[slate arrow]

If you aren't pressing buttons, you aren't doing damage

[zenith halo]

I heard the Sam is best dps

[slate arrow]

Best is subjective

Especially when the best changes floor to floor

[zenith halo]

Ye eventually im gonna have to max out every dps so ill see which one i enjoy lol

[heavy grove]

@zenith halo FFXIV depends mostly on player skill. Rather than the job potentials.

[dire prawn]

And there's different content that different jobs are better in

[zenith halo]

Ah ok

[dire prawn]

One of the Ultimate raids (I think TEA?) fucking hates melee players and SAM actually has the lowest damage there when you're comparing logs

[dire prawn]

#kupo-bot-spam

[zenith halo]

I mean monk rn seems pretty fun so gonna max him first xD

[molten dome]

sorry just trying to figure out how to get scholar or astro job start quest

[dire prawn]

Scholar you need to reach 30 Arcanist

[opal swan]

Guys i have the material but idk how to craft :s when i click synthesize it says not enough material but idk what I’m missing

[heavy grove]

Monk upgrades to Ninja, btw.

[dire prawn]

Astrologian you need to have any job at 50 and reach Heavensward

[slate arrow]

Level 30 ARCANIST and Ishgard respectively

[dire prawn]

And enter Ishgard

[slate arrow]

If you're on summoner, unequip your job stone

[slate arrow]

No, no it does not.

[heavy grove]

Oops sry my bad

[molten dome]

darn alright thanks still have 70 quests or so in a realm awoken till hw

[olive idol]

I'm too nervous to choose on my own but i'm currently at the end of the ||Casino investigation quest, at "Such Boundless Generosity!" or "Can I have one, too?" What do i do?||

[upper cove]

This is the most important. Play what you feel is fun!

[obsidian patio]

Both options have the same outcome, just different dialogue

so no free mount

[olive idol]

shame, but thanks 🙂

[zenith halo]

Will do. Ty!

[pale nimbus]

With new expansions are new skills added to Jobs? If so, if usually how many?

[hollow gate]

What region has level 26 ish side quests?

[upper cove]

@zenith halo https://youtu.be/9FBgY7xBFQE I also recommend watching this video! This guy has very great job guides

Good to know what your current skills do, and what to expect

[mild ermine]

Are there drops only obtainable at minimum ilevel ?

Like if I went back and did ARR trials on extreme at minimum ilevel. Will I get any different drops?

[faint flare]

No

The only reason to do min ilvl is challenge

[buoyant sorrel]

Is there a difference between Selena and eos? I'm kinda getting used to scholar

[faint flare]

No

[cunning loom]

not anymore

[obsidian patio]

Generally the overall button count for jobs stays the same or only goes up/down by 1-2, since they also remove old actions or have them upgrade into new ones

Depends heavily on if they rework the job to a large degree

[pale nimbus]

That’s great to hear. I really hate the skill and keybind bloat common to how MMORPGs usually design over time through expansions.

[cedar dune]

Is there a way for my summon to use their new auto attacks?

[cosmic lintel]

Is jackpot III still a free company action?

[faint flare]

They don't get new autos

[cedar dune]

ahhh so like the gouge here applies to the other color'd carbuncle?

[faint flare]

Yes

That's Topaz

[cedar dune]

ahhhh ic ic got it

[faint flare]

The background is the pet colour/user

[robust magnet]

is POTD or DR better for the relic step?

[faint flare]

DR

[heavy wadi]

DR

[faint flare]

3 per run

[heavy wadi]

since it gives you-

[faint flare]

And takes 15mins in SPEEEEEEEEEED

[robust magnet]

hmm, alright.
And that has match making right?

[faint flare]

Yes

Do Keep your eye out on speedruns in PF

Drastically speeds it up

[robust magnet]

cool, I only did it like once or twice back when it came out, couldn't remember lol.

[tropic flame]

make sure to bring essences on speedruns ;3

[cunning raft]

heyo kinda new to the game but got the online complete edition for the dlc but it wont let me activate the dlc to my normal account do i need a new one or can i get the dlc on my normal account?

[robust magnet]

Also which steps get skipped for the following relics?
The ones needing alliance raids?

[faint flare]

Haunting/vexing and the 180 Zadnor items

[fiery helm]

this MSQ far enough to pick up the mount quest? https://prnt.sc/1gvemwq

[faint flare]

You'll know when you get can mounts

It will be tracked under the main scenario tracker

[uneven wind]

Is ARR a good story? I'm considering starting over because I forgot everything. I'm coming back after 5 years

[faint flare]

And you would have joined a grand company

[fiery helm]

ah ok

[faint flare]

It's...fine

Slow at points

But not completely terrible

[robust magnet]

can also do new game plus, all things considered.

[uneven wind]

I'm at the quest 'Its Possibly A Primal'

A realm awoken

[robust magnet]

Or just rewatch the cutscenes

[uneven wind]

No idea how I got there

Because I have a random 25 pugilist on another server. Lmao maybe the 50 was a boost

So from that perspective, THEN would it be a good idea to start fresh?

[robust magnet]

If you don't mind needing to redo stuff sure?
Can always redo the character on a preferred server to get that nice exp boost.

[uneven wind]

Do they still have preferred servers?

[dire prawn]

Can always not do that since only JP has any preferred servers left

:^)

[uneven wind]

From my perspective, it'll feel like a new experience if I replay it, because it's been that long

And playing with my fiance, we can go through it together

[robust magnet]

are you NA or EU?

[uneven wind]

NA

[robust magnet]

and yeah seems like only JP has preferred rn lmao

[uneven wind]

I'm near Toronto Canada

Do they disclose where the servers are based?

[hallow nest]

if i queue up for castrum meridanium, am i expected to skip the cinematics?

[slate arrow]

you literally can't
