later parts of bozja are not necessary, they only offer faster avenues of getting specific materials for the later relic steps
if you are lv25 elemental, you sync to lv20 in Anemos, will it still count to the log if I kill lv20-22 monsters there?
yes, in fact a lot of people choose to do their challenge log in anemos because of this
^
despite being higher level
it's rather convenient
nice
Without Ishgard, leves is the fastest way to level min/btn, right?
Yes
hi
i did an account for final fantasy some time ago and now i forgot the question and the password :/ what can i do?
send an email to FFXIV if u don't remember your secret answer neither
if i'm levelling a crafter what food would i wanna stack for xp/stat ideally?
it happens to me everytime i come back to ffxiv
how much time does it take for them to respond?
try to describe why you are the owner of the account
-When you made it
-When was the last time you played
-From where do you tend to play it (city)
-Etc
Could be the same day, could be the next one
the thing is that i didn t play it tho, i tryed to make an account for it, made it and then just let it be in my library
tell them that XD
that was a week ago
i have it on steam
50+ you can add timed node collectables to it
nice
while doing leves in the downtime
btw how is the game?
👀
8000 hours and still going say anything?
damn
I'm super new to this game and MMORPGs as a whole lol so it can be difficult for me to understand so you might have to dumb it down to caveman explanation for me, but I wanted to ask about Duty Roulette quests. Does it randomize your class or just who you're partied with?
Just who you are with
And what dungeon yoy get
also how many dungeons/ raids does this game have?
Duty roulettes also randomize the dungeon/trial/raid
Alot cause theu don't remove content
So classes as well as objectives are random every time?
Your class is whatever you que with
^
^
Oh okay I gotcha now
So trial roulette when you get that basically throws you into a random trial with random people
Well there are four 8-man raids each consisting of 12 fights each, four 24-man raids with 3 fights each. I forget the Bozja and Eureka raids...three trial series with 3 trials each plus like, 4 trials per expansion main story + some random ones
dungeons I have no idea honestly but there is a good few especially in ARR and HW
Okay I think I'm up to speed now
Is Coeurl known to be an RP server? I had a really strange dm with a rando who wanted me to join up and sell "substances" with his FC.
I can't tell if he was serious or this was some sort of RP attempt
Crystal as a whole leans more RP
are there any other mounts aside from the standard chocobo you can get during free trial?
Yes
don't think he would genuinely try to expand his operation to a stranger online
Also, is there a way to enable speech bubbles over players head so I know that someone is talking, I've missed strangers attempting to speak with me a few times due to not paying attention to the chat bar
No
darn
saw something on reddit that the third party launcher has a plugin for that I think?
Well there is a third party launcher called XIV launcher/quick launcher and that has a plug in that let's you enable that

Thanks @wintry chasm
Nice thanks a lot!
Whats your favorite class and why? I am having a hard time continuing in the game, I have a 50 bard, but I do not really enjoy it much any more. I've tried dark knight, but I am not really a fan.
have they added new beards since ARR/HW? if so is tehre any way of changing mine?
undead in eureka spawn in ET 18:00 or 19:00?
I'm not sure about beards, but you can check it on Aesthecian
bard isn't fun until into their 60s imo
they get a lot more fun in the 60-70 range because they get passives that increase how many procs they get
at what rank can i buy glamour prisms from the grand company?
What do you think is the most popular job to play right now?
!faq meta
Probably war
@robust crow Thanks, any other recommendations as well? I really only play like one - maybe two hours a day max anyway
I cant pick one but for dps SAM is fun
4th rank or 5th, basically as soon as you unlock the 2nd store tab
a lot of classes dont feel fun until 60 lol
lol 😂
red mage starts off pretty fun right away at 50
it is what it is
as soon as you learn RDM you have access to its core gameplay
how should i farm seals then, cuz i'm an eternal flame follower but i can't find 3 of the mobs i'm supposed to kill
minus a few bells and whistles
they're in sandgate but i can't see them at all
What is fun for me may not be fun for you thou, do check youtube on basically what class to get a hint on every class
is it safe to use?
where a lot of classes don't settle into their core gameplay until well into their 60s
they are prob from a dungeon
DRG, for example, doesn't even have its core 5-part combo until level 64
BLM doesn't get its big spell Fire 4 until level 60
etc.
how do i unlock the sandgate dungeon?
As a Bard primary, I fully symphathise yeah. But we get way better, I promise you. You get Iron Jaws at lv56 and that will change your world, and when your proc rates change and you get access to Apex Arrow, you're going to feel way better.
Yeah these things tend to be. I've NEVER heard of a single issue regarding this software and FFXI has a very similar thing called Windower which everyone straight up uses
apex arrow doesn't even happen until level 80 lol
that is why I didn't mention a level lol
is mogstation in maintenance?
Sounds good everyone, thanks for the feedback. It's hard to get into the game, when the last MMORPG I played was FlyFF 10 years ago.
Quick question how does world transfer works? My friend couldnt join my world when he made his character
i sure hope you'd be having fun on a class by the time you hit 80
do your daily leveling roulette, gives a good chunk of seals
Maybe I can just be a dedicated fisherman ;')
pog another person that played FlyFF o/
I STILL WATCH VIDEOS EVERY FEW WEEKS FOR NOSTALGIA
select character and world, pay, log in
boom done
I miss my cloud and wings mounts
you have to pay to join a world?
No?
To transfer home servers
ya know, if you want to move
Hmm and can you explain me the thing about free world transfer?
!faq worldvisit
The World Visit System allows players to visit other worlds on the same data center. After hopping to another world, you are then able to do almost everything you are normally able to such as partying up to take on duties. Click the link below to find out how it works, and what restrictions there are.
Like is the server is new or sum idk im new
No
can you make a new character on a different world?
You won't be able to get a free world transfer Dray
Best you got is that world visit sytem
Yep
Ayt thanks
huh I got "unable to complete version check" error, is there a maintenance or just my laptop?
Laptop.
is there a difference betweem buying the game on steam or on the website?
It decides where you have to buy the expansions from
yes, steam accounts can only play on steam
And official SE version gets sales more frequently
so you have to purchase all the expansions through steam and no other platform
For Chocobo racing when should I start investing into feeds? I’m only at pedigree 2 atm
i wish to re edit my charc how do i edit it
Hey, I was wondering when I can unlock the crafting/gathering quests for Shadowbringers. How far into the MSQ do I have to be?
After your first dungeon basically
alright, thank you
They make it pretty clear honestly
Is Grabbing Crabs in LaNosecea (Swiftclaw) broken? I have a green circle but there's nothing there
ummm why cant i use my chaos armor coffer
it says you cannot carry more than one unique item of the same type?
You probably have a Hero's Belt (or whatever it's called) on you or something?
From another job armour coffer?
complete edition only costs 15 euros here wtf is this normal?
There is a deal going on no?
Activate the leve quest from your journal
yes
Hey guys, i need some help
My friend doesnt have an option to assign a CLASS to his new retainers
That's the level 60 one right? In which case yeah remove it
so i have to discard my heros belt of fending?
I tried everything already ;d
its lv 50
Is the "automatically lock on target when initiating auto-attack." not a good idea? I liked it at first but I've found walking backwards to get out of an AOE attack is too slow and often get hit. Is there a quick deselect enemy button I can use to flee for a bit?
i see, thank you.
Ah here we go
any one of these
!faq retainer
What is a retainer?
A retainer is a private NPC that will act as a personal bank for the player, holding up to 175 different items, that can be summoned to any of the Summoning Bells around the world. Retainers also act as your means to sell on the Market Board.
How to unlock a retainer
First, you must complete the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn then go to speak to any of the Retainer Vocates located in the market district of any of the major cities.
What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)
Have them check the market areas of the cities for the quest in the last paragraph
Lock on isn't great cause you lose camera control and it's awkward
Yes
You can't see the rest of the arena with it active
And you kinda need to see the arena
@wintry chasm Yeah it does look cool so I was suckered into wanting it haha, thanks I'll unselect it appreciate it again
Yeah I also thought it looked cool until I tried to do the E3S raid 😦
Very frustrating
I can imagine, I just got blown up from a glide bomb LOL
One of the many things that looks fine on paper
Bad in practice
Like soft targetting
God damn fuck soft targetting
I checked it, is there a requirement to unlock an option to give gear to retainer? Aside from MSQ which he did
idk i get some decent use out of soft targeting
This which isn't MSQ
is it worth doing hard ifrit over a=nd over?
for what?
I'm not sure what for
Uh thats what id like to know
the relics?
no, ifrit's weapons
the ones that drop from the boss itself don't glow
you can craft one using the boss's mat that drops from EX that does glow
They’re also tradable and can be bought from the marketboard
okay so i finished halatali which is the dungeon in sandgate
it wasn't the case that the amal'jaa guys were in sandgate
Okay and?
Is there a question?
Any guide on how to gear myself 51-60?
Anybody got that image of all the MSQ handy? I saw it here a week or two ago, but forgot to save it / the command
But also, tomestone gear. Ironworks.
main story if you got that, dungeon drops are also good
thank you dude!
ironworks works to an extent
Like a story summary?
@stone horizon yeah i figured, almost happened to me before. Just @ so you could delete it. I woukd still change it though. Yw
Yeh will do right away, wasnt even my ffxiv tho hahahah

anyone know what music plays when you fight a clan hunt mob? Its almost like a remix battle theme but I cant find it anywhere
It was a big image with columns for all the MSQ names and levels so you can see your progress across the entire game. I think it might've been a kupobot command, but I couldn't see it in the list
Hellohello! I'm downloading the game and am very new to this. In fact I know nothing. But for sure I'd be interested in RPing on FF14. Would you guys be so kind to tell me on which server Roleplay is active?
clan hunt are hw right? hw a-ranks have "stone and steel"
Oh the list of all msq and content in each expansion
or wait, do you mean the ff2 battle theme remix for b-ranks? that's "battle theme 1.x"
yeah thats the one, thanks a lot
what food should i be getting as a black mage
Smoked chicken
Smoked chicken reigns supreme
fastest way to do Resistance Remembers part of the relic weapon chain?
can I do royal city of rabanastre unsynced?
No.
None of the resistance relic steps can be done unsynced
Queue up for Void Ark/Rabanastre and do fates while you’re in the queue
Ye, that thing. Is there a command for it?
!faq questlist
Thank you
question for anyone who bought a physical collector's edition of an XIV expac before:
- as I understand it, you get 1 preorder code (via email upon order confirmation) which gives you access to the preorder exclusive items, but there is also a separate code for the expansion itself? where/how/when do you get that one?
oh, as in when it arrives at my house?
Yep
Is there a potion that removes pacification, like echo drops remove silence?
and presumably it would arrive before launch day..... right? or else we'd get locked out of the expac?
Nope
Yep, rarely heard of people not getting it before official launch
much appreciated!
is there high xp gain now for new chars?
Only on JP servers
If you have road to 70
how do you get road to 70?
No preferred worlds currently exist in NA/EU datacenters
From making a character on a preferred world
oh..
we were only able to create chars on 1 world in the data center 😦
and I guess it wasn't preferred...
are there even preferred at the moment?
Preferred world currently unavailable due to massive exodus that happened recently
oh I see
Only in JP datacenters
kinda sus 😦
Not sus lol
Because so many people start playing FF XIV that before newest congestion report many server become full
guys im being told "new characters cannot be made on this world at this time" even though its not telling me the world ive selected is full at all?
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
Gotta wait until less people are on
Yeah don't make character in prime hours
well its 9:24pm local european time so shall i just assume not happening today
Wait till like 3 am or something
EU time? But you have an NA role
what should i be doing in here
Talk to the squadron sergeant
when i selected my role i didnt have a clue what i was selecting
i did but nothing happens
like all it says is this, but idk what to do
What does he tell you?
Aether is one of three data centres in NA
i changed it
Complete your challenge log to get more recruits
It's rng when completing challenge logs you'll get recruit papers
Unselected Aether in role selection
can I save my Khloe gold certificate for endwalker and trade it in for the new stuff?
How do I know when I've started heavensward?
We don't know if it will be used
Via the giant HEAVENSWARD title screen
In a cutscene
Lol
Im so confused on how to get certain items for crafting
Like?
Is the Minstrel's Ballad version of Thordan essentially the extreme version of the fight? I've been trying to find the extreme version but maybe I'm mistaken?
Yes
skybuilders fine sand. sorry if its obvious im new
Minstrel ballad is the EX for big story fights
You can't get that
^
Yoy get grade 4 mats
Ignore phase one receipes
ok so i finished a hunting log for my grand company
So you want to go into diadem for all those materials basically
how do i acquire another?
You don’t
So promote
Thank you
I just unlocked my first extreme (garuda) and bahamut coils. Are these ever done with duty finder?
No
not seeing any parties for them
What were you playing?
are people just not running them?
because those just mean like, the little casino games like fist-a-cur
idk, what should i play
Honestly fist-a-cur is the only one I remember the name of
The actual machines all around
^
wut machines where ;o
Like bomb basketball
so im leveling a alt and i did the daily roulette leveling but after you get the rewards the first time is it better to spam it or go do palace of the dead?
or the one where you sledgehammer
only time ive ever been to this place is when i claimed my fenrir pet from wondetails
Or the miner/botanist things
whom'st've'd
never spam roluettes
it's only good for the daily bonus
The machines are around the different squares
just wondering, when ew comes out will boosts on mogstation change from 70 to 80?
Like the east and south square
So you are telling me i have to pay 60$ to go samurai not only that but pay 15$ every month? bro wth am i the son of the president
So where do you think the best place is to lvl im 35?
as for spamming dungeons or PotD it's generally better for DPS to do PotD but I don't tend to recommend much since it's boring as fuck @potent summit
At some point Yes they'll update
Does Dalriada grant any resources for what I need to complete any of the relic quests, A Fond Memory, Tell me a Story, and Spare Parts?
what kind?
@sick ledge its an mmo, most mmo's have a subscription fee lol
Not every month
Dalriada doesn't
i have to pay 15$ for sub every month tho
At least I don't remember anyway
No
the only ones ive see ndo that is WoW and this
Im playing dark knight and im lvl 35 it wasen't bad it just gave me a headache so im trying to figure out what to do
@sick ledge you havent seen many mmos
do you plan to play every month? 
No you don’t,
That’s dumb imo
being into a game that much aint dumb
Could do a bit of Squadrons too I guess since you can get some cool stuff for doing them
Best place to lvl a 35 alt ?
Highest level dungeon spam
About that i have no idea how to even get to that
A bunch of people here aren’t subbed currently because they don’t need to be
Is there any real reason to switch grand companies?. I've already max leveled flames and maelstorm but paying 50k and being locked out for 2 weeks and also not being able to use the glam is alot
PotD if dps, highest unlocked dungeon if tank or healer imo
whats the purpose of repose?
right
Cause it's removed when they're hit
Cc'ing that one enemy that is beating on you and the braindead tank is ignoring
Has 1 required use in the game
Anyone know if the collector version upgrades have ever gone on sale before?
yes the digital upgrade on the mogstation has gone on sale before
mmm
I vaguely recall it happening once within the past few years and thought it was just a fever dream
I think it happened once because of "wow X amount of players let's celebrate" and that was it in terms of my memory
there was one last july
how to add a sound effect to a text in macro?
what am i meant to do on this and out on a limb
<Se.#>
1-16 for the number
alright lemme try
So like <Se.1>
Basically a game of hot and cold.
No space after the dot
but how do you know whe nyou hit im just clicking it randomly
there's no space
you have system sounds enabled, yes?
That blue message in the centre of your screen
also no capital S
i heard the sound someone made so pretty sure i have it on
"you sense nothing"
just <se.1>
yeah but that doesnt tell me anything..
Is the 510 crafted gear basically close to max power in the patch? Or is the jump from 510 to 530 really noticeable?
Very noticeable
still nothing
no luck :C
Out on a limb is easier
Ah ok because I just hit 80 for the first time and I was excited for the gear chase but was kind of disappointed to see almost max ilvl gear being purchasable
turn off all sounds but system sounds and use /e <se.1>
Didn’t want to just be able to buy high end raid gear haha
It’s currently an odd patch 5.5, ie catch up patch, so higher Ilvl gear will be more easily obtainable
you mean exarchic? cus thats not bis
Even patches, .0, .2, .4 are the raid patches
At 70 it's better to prep trick with TCJ
is this true?
Nope
Yea I just didn’t know how much of a power gap there was between 20 item levels
Definitely not
at 70 you are missing meisui
Well that's a free bhaka
So the suiton from TCJ is wasted
oh it made sound now with the /e
should also work in party and alliance
do i get rid of /e?
/e is just a private channel for you to like keep notes/tell yourself things without bothering anyone else
o
Isn’t it more worth doing katon-> Doton tcj at 70
but if you wanna put the sound effect into a macro, like i said it should work if you're putting that message in party or alliance chat
what
for example /party hello <se.1> ?
yer
Yes
alright ill try
Nope, just the expansion data
Are there different ground mount speeds that i need to unlock or is the speed from level 20 mount the fastest you can go?
There are different mount speeds, some will be unlocked from MSQ rewards but flying makes that all irrelevant once you unlock it
Since mount speed only affects speed on the ground
why are the top ranked NINs in UWU doing this then?
wtf? i tryed to contact the suppor cuz i forgot my account answer and they ask me to put the account answer
why
You'd have to ask them
also my location for some reason
can i unlock the faster ground speeds before unlocking flying?
yes but it isn't worth the effort
darn, and does flying have multiple unlockable speeds?
because you have to unlock the faster ground speed for each zone individualy
no
Flying is max speed from the get go
Is the story worth it or should i just buy a boost?
thats a shame, thanks for the info!
can anyone give me an email where i can ask for a recovery or something?

How do I know which CHAR file is my main char in documents? I wanna copy my HUD over to a new char
my opinion, im free trial and level 40. I find the story of ARR to be very boring so far. But im learning the game slowly which is good so i wouldnt skip ahead. Its an mmo so a lot to learn
Can free trials play with retail players?
anyone?
The story is the best part of the game, all a boost will do is ensure you won't know what you're doing or what is happening
Yes
That's fair enough, i bought all the expansions, currently level 19 and very slowly progressing forward that's why i'm asking
Go through the square enix account support through the mogstation
Ok!
Boosts are for alt jobs that you're too lazy to level, not your first time through imo
Thanks for warning, i'll don't boost then
i tryed, they ask me to put the question and the answer to talk to them
All my friends reccomended burning through main story quest only to get to expansions faster which is where the game picks up and gets good
- want to get back
- no motivation
What riddle is this, are you looking for discipline to play a video game?
Should also note that even if you are max lvl you won't be able to do max lvl content if you haven't unlocked it via the story
so boosting without buying a story skip is literally pointless if it's your first job
Does anyone know what items from Eureka are good MB sellers? Beyond just logos.
@left whale Well I don't want to get to September where the 15 event is back but don't wanna play the game
I havint played the game since. April
When I finished 5.3
what does the red quest icon with a key and a + symbol next to it mean?
Hello. My wife is loving the game, but isn't happy with the change from archer to bard. She really loves the archer though. Is it viable to stay as an archer? Or is there a job that is very similar? (Machinist maybe?)
Red means you don't meet the requirements
means you can't progress it because you're missing a requirement
Bard is just archer with extra buttons
Bards are just archers but carry an instrument alongside a bow
Is there a way to see what the requirements are?
Staying archer beyond 30 is absolutely not viable though, no
Go and try to accept the quest
I think it's the aesthetics she isn't liking of bard 😄
It tells you
Well shit bro, the archer and bard aesthetic is identical
She might enjoy Machinist, yeah. But how far along is she, can I ask? Because Archer/Bard feel really weird until at least lv56/60
what the fuck do i do now?
We are only level 34, so maybe we just need to keep going to when we can get more glamours
Definitely
It asked me to join the armourer's guild.
Bard has some of the fanciest hats in the game
idk if i should or not idk about guilds yet
why in the world would you ask me for the account answer and question if i try to change them cuz i forgot them?
the weekly coin cap has been removed
!iglam Amon's Hat
LOL
That thing is hideous
Those are completely other jobs
Not actual guilds
ouch
jobs as in classes or jobs as in mining/cooking etc?
Botj
what level is coils soloable
so i dont meet the requirements because i arent high enough in that job or something?
mining, cooking, etc are classes
If you interact with the NPC with that icon, the quest pane should tell you what's keeping you from accepting it.
each "profession" is its own class that you switch to and that gains experience and levels in the same manner as a combat class
I spoke to her but there was no quest pane, she launched into dialogue and then asked me to join the armourer's guild
You need to do your lv10 class quest to swap jobs
If you are subbed to FFXIV on PC, does the sub also count for ps4/ps5?
Yes

do i need to finish some quest before i get mount drops from extreme trials?
LOL
Conflicting answers
Well
much to read into here
The sub is the same but
you can level every class but not at the same time
got it
You need to purchase the game separately
Yeah I know that, just wanted to know if the sub is shared
whenever you want to craft something you switch to the crafter class. then when you need to fight something you switch back to your fighting class.
Thanks 
Fair enough sorry for the confusion 😀
thanks
so if i wanted to do that red quest, which is called "so you want to be a blacksmith", to do it id have to switch from summoner to blacksmith and then i could do it?
is there any technical reason that you have to have your Shb relic weapon in your inventory and not equipped?
Yes
If you equip the blacksmith main hand wisdom you should change job to blacksmith
also whats the deal with guilds, she asked me to join the armourers guild, is there any reason to do so or not to do so?
And then you will be able to do the quest
joining the various guilds is just, like, a story thing. there's a quest line for each class, including the non-combat ones
That's literally just saying "do you want to be an armourer"
They're not ACTUAL guilds
Those are free companies
anyone able to help with my hotbar, i just unlocked JIN
add more hotbars, for a start
how do i add more
Esc -> HUD layout, you should be able to turn more on there (I think?)
ight
Yes. Go into HUD Layout in the Options menu, you should see a bunch of extra hotbars. You can select one and check its check-box on the settings pane, or you can double-right-click it and it will activate.
Also you're going to need a space for your 3rd mudra for when you unlock it, and make sure all 3 are on easy to reach hotkeys
because ninja is all about being able to easily and quickly execute those ninjutsus
optimizing my hotbar for ninja opener was a big deal but damn it's so much easier to pull off once you have it set up right
hi so i have the whole msq done, im lvl 80. i have done all the other extremes for the dogs, and i went to the wandering minstral and he has nothing left for me. i want to get my last dog from shinryus domain but its not in my duty finder and the wandering minstral has nothing for me
keeping my easy combo rotations with 1 2 3 is easy. Imma need to invest in an mmo mouse soon 
Is the gear that comes with Dark Knight better or worse than the level 50 Augmented Ironworks gear?
trying to setup a separate account on PSN with free trial for a friend. i'm trying to login to the new SE account that I made on the SE site but it just gives me an "id or password is incorrect" error. any ideas?
im planning on farming a bis build for smn, however, some pieces overlap with blm bis that i already have. According to my friends edenmorn gear is unique so I can't have more then one for the same role(casting) in my inventory at a time. Is this true?
this is confusing me, tbh; I'm logging in so I can look at my Duty Finder pane
Are you sure you don't have it unlocked already?
positive ._.
yep
there are bis sets that are flexible between rdm/smn and blm without much loss
can look to one of those instead
thats all i have and i just talked to the the wandering guy again to triple check
Do you take fall dmg when mounted if you arent aggroed?
yeah, that's ... where it would be
And you've got Tsukuyomi's so you should be well past the point
🤔
You do but you can't die outside of combat
yeah im confused ._.
that was a big tower, was making sure before i jumped 😄
yep
assasins creed style
o_O
kugane
do you have the quest in your journal?
Hello, when i enter raids/dungeons, before boss my game just crashes without error or anything, just closes, not always but most of the times and i cant get back in without getting crashes, any solutions?
how many days does it take to respond for the support?
this is honestly boggling me
if you forgot your account answer
im levelling my sch/smn with msq's and usuing my lvl80 gnb to kill everything. ezpz i dont think ima be playing smn or sch which is why im not goign to get them 510 gear from mb plus i cant afford it 0;
how do i get achievement certificates?

Hi! Finaly got my new computer so I just started the game... but I stumbled into a problem... any idea how to play the game in english while on a french Keyboard? (AZERTY instead of QWERTY...)
keybinds
im levelling my sch/smn with msq's and usuing my lvl80 gnb to kill everything. ezpz i dont think ima be playing smn or sch which is why im not goign to get them 510 gear from mb plus i cant afford it 0; {i would gear them if i could afford the 1-1.2mill gill per set cost} any thoughts? on how i can gear them without spending ungodly amounts
tomes
ok, I guess I'll have a look 🙂 thanks
Nier raids
Is there a different set of gear thats the class gear we get from class quests but can be dyed?
Or Eden raids
!faq afgeardye
A Realm Reborn i50/i55 set: Done in Mor Dhona by talking to Kakalan at x22, y6 after completing the quest 'Simply to Dye For' located at x22, y9. Augmenting a set of gear requires a total of 7 Augmentations matching the name of the set. Augmentations can be crafted or bought on the marketboard.
Heavensward i210 set: Dyeable upon opening up the coffer received from completion of your level 60 job quest. Should you have disposed of any particular pieces, they can also be bought directly with Centurio Seals in Ishgard at the Forgotten Knight by talking to Yolaine in the 'Artifact Gear Exchange' option.
Stormblood i290 set: Done in Eureka Anemos by exchanging Protean and Anemos Crystals with Gerolt to upgrade the set. Eureka is unlocked in Rhalgr's Reach with the quest 'And We Shall Call It Eureka' and is accessed in Kugane by talking to Rodney at x9, y14.
Shadowbringers i430 set: Obtained from Idealized coffers in the trial Memoria Misera (Extreme). They can also be bought with High Legatus Idols obtained from the trial in Mor Dhona by talking to C'intana.
For dyeable job gwar
tomes wouldnt work as you cant get lvl80 gear with poetics, only revelation but that isnt really worth. all i want is to get all my guys 510-520 gear. which is what im looking for opinion ons
on*
vinyl gave you 2 other options
tomes, raid gear, and crafted are your only options so pick the one you feel is worth it
what is a cascadier uniform voucher?
ik but idk what those are
lets you exchange for the black summer halter and tanga in mor dhona
you can use em at revenant's toll to buy black swimwear
perfect
yeah im using 510 gear on my gnb rn but like it costs me about 1.2mill gil to buy his set so it'd tkae me that much per jobs set. and i dont have like 20mill gil to spend.. which is why im looking for other options for secondary jobs, so i can gear them up without spending gil.
I didn't really understood that answer, sorry. I just like the class gear but just sad they can't be dyed.
the faq explains how to make them dyeable
They can
they can be dyed
This explain how @visual viper
does this discord have a group finder chat or somewhere I can look for people up for some trials? Im trying to get all the primal horse mounts 🙂
Ingame party finder is your best bet
thanks
any idea why i didnt get a chest piece for my lvl 45 ninja quest?
Or try going to your data center channel in this discord they can give you links to discord channel for trials you need that you can join
@faint flare so uhm when do i unlock that thing you mentioned for gear
You will get in level 50 quests
how do I all my armor, or at least see all the armor when im dye-ing
is it possible to bind Mwheel up & down to hotkeys?
Does reprisal reduce boss damage when they are doing big aoe abilities?
Choose try on, and on the try on tab choose enable dye preview to see
any idea where i can get some lvl 45 gear?
Done with 5.2 How do I get started On Bozja Quests/ Relic weapons I have no idea how and all the guides are pretty confusing
do I need to finish any of the other ShB patches or
Market board?
im on free trial, market board doesnt work
Dungeons

to start the relic questchain you need to have first completed the Return to Ivalice raid series. Once you've done that there will be a quest in Kugane called "hail to the queen". you'll ultimately need to complete 5.4 msq though to unlock the final area of the relic weapon
It reduces all boss damage for the duration
so to get started on Any of bozja I have to do the entire Ivalice raid series?
yes
That comes from them
or is that just the relics
Bozja is more or less a continuation of things started in the Return to Ivalice series
alright
Time to do the entire SB raid series then
Might have a bit of an annoying question but i'd rather just know incase i choose this option and I couldn't find it on the website or in this discords pinned msgs..
Let's say I were to buy skips for 1 job and the MSQ but when I check the skip page on the website, it only mentions having the expansion that matches that class, however, let's say I'd want to boost a job + msq but I haven't unlocked the requirements for that Job to be played in the first place, do I have to first unlock that job through the respective quest before I can use the skip? I'd assume so but it wasn't really specified anywhere in particular on the webpage.
Don't overthink it thou around that level its not really necessary to get all gear up, you are going to change them anyway on 50
same can be said when i get to lvl 50 and there lvl 55 gear
probably not I just want to be clear before I dump 12 ish hours into clearing an alliance raid series

Yes, you have to complete the stormblood alliance raid series until the final quest "City of Angels"
otherwise you cannot do the bozja unlock
ok
Heya, I'm interested in getting the bozjan coat of casting for glamour. How long do you think it would take me to obtain it if I just started bozja fresh?
You don't need to have a job unlocked to level skip it, you just need to own the expansion it comes from if an expansion job
Yes but the tomestones equipments hold up well
i have no idea what those are
Alright! Just wanted to be sure. Will try to hold off on buying it but good to know, appreciate it :)
Probably a couple days at most to level up enough to get into the mini-instance that gives the currency for the cost.
Question regarding the Status Info bar:
When the bar is 10x2, it shows the buffs on the upper half of the element. Is it possible to have it start at the bottom of the element and extend upwards past 10 buffs instead?
Alt question: If I'm using the single Status Bar version of that element, is there a way to limit the horizontal width of the bar? I want it to match the width of my action bars but it's too long.
Ah good to know, thanks!

If it’s not an option when you click the cog in the hud layout, then you can’t. :/

Hiya, it seems the first msq dungeon post shb requires 430 gear, but i only have a left side of this, is there an easy and cheap place to get accessories/belt so i can continue the msq?
Nope you're on your own for gear
Either buy HQ exarchic off market board to shortcut geariing or do Eden and nier raids while buying gear with tomes
Mm I see, it just came off surprising as this is the first time this happened during the msq 🤷♀️
Usually they give you basic stuff
You're on your own at endgame
why does Thancred get gunbreakers 1-2-3 combo on 1 button ? i want that :/
So the baby casuals can clear the story without learning a different job
1 button combos are never coming to pve
It would make the game completely fucking boring nd many raiders would quit
"just press 1 and win the fight lol"
i mean, not really its literally just gunbreakers basic combo which extends to you 4-7-5-7-6-7 combo
7 being continuation
It would literally be
I mean, when it comes to the story I can see why they put it on 1 button combo, nobody cares to learn another job combo just because you happen to play as thancred for a single fight :D!

Is the ping much different btween Chaos and Light?

Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.

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

It looks like you just have the regular free trial, not the steam free trial
but i downloaded the steam demo
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
which of these 2 bird should i pick as my P6 race chocobo?
Can anyone help me and my friend party up were free trial in adamantoise
You can still transfer to the steam full game but besides that there's no difference
Just use the STANDALONE launcher for now
wtf is that

First link.
Hello ! Where i can do levequest / best experience area at level 50? Im quite lost to be honest after waiting for doing roulettes and Dungeons :3 thanks !!
@agile prism aurum vale
Falcons nest has lv50 fates while queing
@agile prism duty finder
its a dungeon lmao
Aaaaaa
i wanna run the game off steam though, not the atucal laucnher
Sorry xD
Well you're not marked as Steam account
So you can't use steam trial
You would have to buy or use a new Se account
sadge
theres no difference even launching through steam you need to go through the standalone launcher
in terms of logging in
What C said
Pls anyone party up me and my friend were free trial
what channel should i go for asking gold saucer questions?
steam just downloads the standalone launcher which it launches to allow you to do, it does nothing else. @hexed zephyr
you can prob ask here
@woven night here is fine
might be easier to just ask people in-game in like a city
atleast, thats my take on it from using the steam launcher myself. until i started using xivlauncher on github
Pls weve been trying for an hour pls
Im not at my PC, I'd help otherwise
I mean I can't help but you can use say chat
Anyone pls we can pnly do say and weve been trying for an hour
which of these 2 birds is better? the one with 6 maxed out stats but mediocre rest or the one with 5 maxed and good rest?
yeah im not in aether otherwise i'd help.
@woven night the right one, definitely
Like holy shit I'd kill for that set of stats
Pls someone just tranfer world and help just for 5 min
go to limsa and ask in say chat
so what happens if i switch to full game, will that maybe help?
since this is P6 theres still 3 generation before the final chocobo
you cant transfer data centre
You can I tried it
you can't.
full game = subscription based.
He can't
okay, so does every class get a new set when they reach max level for an expansion
bruh
Yes
what th did they do to my trial
Pls anyone help pls
nothing lol. you just need to use the standalone ffxiv launcher.
Just use the STANDALONE launcher
is it like, catch up gear for classes?
dude im stupid
!faq freetrial

I've told you this repeatedly
Basically. It's your entry set of endgame gear
is there a dedicated gold saucer discord?
literally click the top thing "click here to download the free trial" and it insta popsup a download window.
ezpz
or hell, you can do it the weird way and click this. http://gdl.square-enix.com/ffxiv/inst/ffxivsetup_ft.exe
I'm not aware of any, but probably.
because im not shure if even if the right one has better overall stats its the best choice in the long run for its future generation 
chocobo breeding is a bit overwhelming
About to do castrum lacus litore for the first time for my resistance weapon and I’m honestly scared, it seems long and difficult, anything i should know before going in?
Definitely the right one. You can use it's even stat spread to your advantage since you can at least guarantee a decent chocobo
what can i use venture coins for?
Sending retainers on ventures
It's not that hard. Just follow the crowd and don't stand in the AoE or near what looks like something dangerous
so they're pointless then, got it
Don't stand in bad, use dps increasing stuff
Follow your party
Don't go to the upper platform unless you really want to
is there any hunting discord?
I lowkey think top is easier but people don't know how magnets work so
Centurio hunts in #resources
can you disable the dialogue asking you if you want to sell/discard unique gear?
They’re not 
what should i do´?
Ventures are useful for material gathering or just for general income, you should have them going on all the time
Where can i practice combos?
Summerford farms
retainer ventures can get you a massive variety of potential items, including ones that actually sell for decent amts on the mb
Has lv1 dummies
What region is that lol
La noscena
free trials can't use retainers
so for now
they're useless to me
