[stray dawn]

anyone here familiar with the ff14squadron site, it's not working properly for me

[ripe hound]

What’s not working properly?

It seems like you already met all stats, just throw those 4 guys out and job should be done?

[stray dawn]

it doesnt tell me what training i got to do to meet the requirements

[ripe hound]

You already met all requirements?

[acoustic thorn]

i’ve run into a bug. i can no longer enter the eight sentinels because i was hit by a mob while loading

[stray dawn]

but stat is at the bottom

[acoustic thorn]

ive logged out, killed the mob, teleported away and back

still cant enger

enter*

[ripe hound]

The 4 numbers like 53 are your levels

The stat is on the right

[stray dawn]

the 13600/72000 ?

[pulsar marsh]

Hey guys, during which expansion in the MSQ do flying mounts unlock?

[ripe hound]

That’s exp for next level

[stray dawn]

the PHY 600, ... ?

[ripe hound]

That's your current stat

[stray dawn]

it's not, the bottom where traing is my current stat

[ripe hound]

No

The trained stats are the bonus stats

Each unit also have their own stat

[fading helm]

This might be a dumb question but are there any FF9 raids lol

[stray dawn]

oh, so I'm entering it wrong?

[ripe hound]

The 600 is total stats of 4 units + training stats

[fading helm]

Like themed around it

[ripe hound]

weird

one sec

OH

Right

The stats on the bottom are training stats lol

[toxic sorrel]

sorry if this is a dumb question but what is ping?

[ripe hound]

I'm not in game now, playing another game

[ripe hound]

But go to the board thing, where you train your units

[stray dawn]

no biggie, I think the site is bugged or something haha

[ripe hound]

Nah, it's just confusing lol

On the board, you should be able to see your current stat bonuses

The stats training provided you

[stray dawn]

ah, i prob entered wrong value then

[simple zephyr]

Do raid drops occur differently than dungeons or trials?

[stray dawn]

board is 140/60/200

[ripe hound]

Yeah, input those values.
The current value you entered was your total stats lol

[stray dawn]

now that makes sense

[ripe hound]

Yup

Congrats

[stray dawn]

[pulsar marsh]

simple answer is it's the latency between your PC and the game server. higher ping means more latency. lower ping is better.

[scarlet kayak]

Are Promise of Devotion bracelets tradable?

[ripe hound]

Have fun Purrify

[onyx zinc]

speaking of ping, can it be displayed in the hud anywhere? there's sending/receiving but that hardly means anything

[warm yacht]

Does stuff actually aggro further in Pagos?

[jade quartz]

No, gotta ping the server ip manually

[fluid tartan]

Hey I did a recruit a friend with someone from an old FC that kinda wanna lose contact with for reasons, How can I disconnect my RAF with that person and reconnect with a real life friend. I am still a sprout

[warm basalt]

anyone know are cloudtraps still in diadem?

[leaden ginkgo]

You cant

[last brook]

I don't know anything about disconnecting. I had given out my Recruit A Friend thing with a ton of random people on Facebook. Never met or talked to them ever. I don't even know how to contact them or what their names are.

[proud willow]

You could try contacting Support but I'm sure there's no regular way to do that

and if you're talking about having someone else refer you, that's extremely unlikely to happen

though you can go ahead and refer as many people as you'd like whether or not Support is able to disconnect your existing RAF

my ping is the sending and receiving thing right? the receiving part?

whats a good ping cause im australian so apparently ours is shit

[jade quartz]

No, unrelated

[toxic sorrel]

ohh ok

[jade quartz]

That’s your packets sent/received which is not useful info for the average player.

You have to check your ping outside of the game

oh ok good cause the receiving shit was hella high and im like shit my pings fucking terrible

[jade quartz]

Anything under 100 is great ping, up to like 130 is still pretty good (enough to double weave)

When you start to get above like 200 that’s pretty bad

Over like 220 you might start to have difficulty actually just dodging mechanics in time in some content

[rocky crag]

i'm about to fight bismarck as a tank, anything I need to know? there wasn't anything about it on the wiki

[last brook]

Is there a way for me to glamour a dps job with disciple of the land equipment? I look super cool in this blacksmith gear.

[little vessel]

So I found the guy but the quest is locked. I'm level 10, I thought I'd be able to do it now...

[ripe hound]

Drag the colorful dragon away from eachother

[onyx finch]

how do i use this entrance? im trying to do my job quest for astro

[jade quartz]

You need to complete your starting class’s level 10 quest

[little vessel]

ahh ok ty

[jade quartz]

Progress the MSQ

[onyx finch]

ah ok

[tame flame]

who can need on what items? I've had plenty of issues with not being able to roll need on dungeon items even though they are upgrades & I can use them.

[lucid birch]

can i have something equiped and and still have it on a glamour plate?

[dusty linden]

hi sry, im trying to buy ffxiv from the store but i cant find my country in checkout, what do i do?

[old island]

anyone have very bad rubberbanding lag in dungeon (Primal DC) ? openworld is fine 😦

[jade quartz]

You can need on stuff that’s for your class.

[tame flame]

so if items say "All Classes" or "All Disciples of War" Nobody can roll need?

[jade quartz]

All classes gear is for casters, or in the case of accessories for certain roles

Just because you can wear it doesn’t mean it’s for you

Disciple of war gear is for physical dps, not tanks

After level 50 gearing becomes more straightforward

Early ARR design weirdness.

I read everything

[tame flame]

so I won't be able to get accessories until 50?

since all of them are marked "all classes"?

[dire prawn]

All classes means any class can equip them

[tame flame]

yeah but I can't roll need on any of them

[dire prawn]

You'll need to look at their stats to figure out if they're the kind you need or if they go to a different job

What class are you

[tame flame]

PLD

[glacial isle]

are Namazu beast tribe quests a good way to lvl DoH/L from 60? Or do I just keep grinding Firmament?

[crisp field]

I just finish HW and due to road to 70 buff I am already lvl 70

can I already buy the lvl 70 tomestone gear or do i still have to use 60 ones

[dire prawn]

Can't buy the 70 tomestone gear until you beat SB

[crisp field]

ok so I should just buy the lvl 70 i270 gear for now or do quest in SB give similar gear that i can just save the tome

[proud willow]

it will be helpful to be in the 270 gear while going through post-HW

and it will be a long time before you need those tomestones

[boreal storm]

Technically you could use silver chocobo feathers

But only for the weapon or chest/legs

[crisp field]

I have some of those

where is the vendor

[boreal storm]

Calamity salvager

[crude marten]

are Garleans born smart/strong since they have the magic-less handicap? or is it just a few select Garlean individuals?

[slate arrow]

we don't know enough

but being garlean basically guarenteed you were among the elite in garlemald

[warm yacht]

do i go straight back to gerolt now

[slate arrow]

Chances are, yes they were altered to be smarter than normal due to their origins, but that's only implied, I think?

[crude marten]

horribly unfair if you're one of those "normal" people.

the prince has all the super powers and peak physical condition just by breathing

[jade quartz]

Garleans in general are physically strong.

[crude marten]

i was thinking if they're into tech, then super serum and cloning were their answers

[jade quartz]

We don’t know what their origins are

Theories about Garleans being an Allagan-engineered race or something are purely speculatory

[fading helm]

whats the command to see the cheapest marketboard items

on this discord

[slate arrow]

Lore Spoilers/kinda speculative ||Ascian intervention w/ garlemald basically means that they probably used some Allagan tech/altering stuff to augment garleans in some manner. ||

[slate arrow]

Just use Universalis

[fading helm]

whats that

[slate arrow]

Kupo just rips the data from that website

which is crowd sources

we don't actually see the actual prices

https://universalis.app/

[crude marten]

but we do know that garleans were oppressed by magic users and this is just their revenge, yeah?

[slate arrow]

https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Garlean_Empire

tl;dr kinda

more spoilers ||MMmmmmm Ascian intervention my favorite||

[crude marten]

just questioning, i might be in the wrong side heheh

[vagrant crescent]

What do I type to get Company Chocobo as a micon in the macro?

I typed /micon "Company Chocobo" but that didn't worked

[jade quartz]

Ehhhhhhhhhh

It’s not really

That’s just one of their flawed justifications

That’s not why the Garlean Empire is.

[boreal storm]

Fight enemies

[halcyon oyster]

How do I unlock the second tier of mount speed increase in ARR zones and HW zones?

[jade quartz]

Many centuries ago, Garlean ancestors were driven from the fertile southern areas of Ilsabard into the inhospitable north, because their lack of magic meant they couldn’t compete with other tribes in combat for resources.

Centuries later they developed magitek and became imperialistic.

[slate arrow]

go outside the city to fight enemies, follow the prompts and do your class quests for free experience

[crude marten]

beat some random enemies till you level up

[jade quartz]

Given the hundreds of years in between, this isn’t justified in the first place; but it’s really not justified when they’re conquering places that had nothing to do with that history

Like Othard and Eorzea

[tidal summit]

friend cant seem to buy the complete edition and keeps getting an "Internal Error has occurred" when trying to purchase it on the store, not sure why

[slate arrow]

the reason they're conquering now is to 'halt the summoning of eikons'

[drowsy pagoda]

When does adventure squadrion training reset? the 3 a day

[slate arrow]

!daily

[zinc orbit]

Tick, Tock, Kupo!

Time Until Daily Reset:

9 hours, 9 minutes, 3 seconds

[slate arrow]

in 9 hours

[crude marten]

huh, i thought they owned those lands too, and just "taking it back"

[jade quartz]

Of course, the threat of them coming does nothing but exacerbate the summoning of primals.

[jade quartz]

Not at all.

Garlemald don’t have some righteous purpose.

[slate arrow]

their original homeland was sunk due to a previous calamity according to the FF wiki

[jade quartz]

Nnno

That’s

About Ridorana and Goug but that’s like, in previous eras

Really ancient ancient history

[slate arrow]

that's fair

anyways this is probably better suited to #archived-lore-spoilers

[pale nimbus]

I read there’s an Ivalice in FF14. Is this the same Ivalice as FF12? Presumably so since there’s Viera in the game now.

[runic cairn]

not the same

[pale nimbus]

Oh, darn. I loved the FF12 world so much.

[runic cairn]

it's a widescale reference to 12 and tactics but it's adapted into this universe with its own differing lore

[pale nimbus]

Ah okay.

[shut panther]

It's essentially a slightly modified version to fit ff14.

But it's basically the same thing.

[outer mural]

none of the things in ffxiv are the exact same thing despite their incredible similar appearances

[pale nimbus]

And I see a raid or something named after a major FF12 city, Rabanastre.

[outer mural]

ivalice in 14 is also just very different in terms of how rabanastre and the other cities fit in

the only exception is the ff15 crossover

where it is in fact literally noctis

[boreal storm]

Shantotto also warps in for the 11 crossover

[pale nimbus]

Sounds wonderful. Looking forward to seeing FF14’s Ivalice.

[boreal storm]

She murders a dude iirc

[true vault]

Are we allowed to ask, technical issues in here?

Or it just in-game help?

[haughty topaz]

is there a way to see what loot i got from an instance ? so i know what loot i won in the role ?

[rancid crypt]

it written in the chat when you win something

and you should hear a sound when you get something

[haughty topaz]

yeah but there is alot of stuff including what others won

can i set it up to show what i got, not others ?

[rancid crypt]

probably, just look through chat options

[haughty topaz]

ok ty

[dark scarab]

does fashion report open on reset?

[rugged flicker]

Does New Game Plus give exp?

[vagrant crescent]

How do I use Return as a micon in the macro?

[rancid crypt]

why do you want it as a macro? its just a click?

[boreal storm]

What macro are you even trying to make

[vagrant crescent]

I'm trying to make it hidden. I learn a trick that let's me do that, but I need Macro to make that work. Lol XD

[outer mural]

it shows the categories but you can only submit on fridays to tuesday before reset

[rancid crypt]

there are things i need to understand and things out dont, that turns out to be a thing i dont need to understand 😄

[terse crystal]

What is the chance of getting hades auracyte with desynth?

[leaden ginkgo]

When a spell procs, is there a way for it to display an indicator on the screen?

[fading helm]

someone said if u clear the ravana extreme 10 times u can get the like hive DRK weapon, do i have to get it from the loot?

or its automatic

[vagrant crescent]

So can someone tell me how do I micon a return now? Lol XD

[tropic flame]

does /micon Return not work?

[vagrant crescent]

I don't know how. That's why I asked, lol XD

No one answered me yet. Or did I missed it? Lol XD

I bet it's /micon "Return" but I don't know what else to put after that for it to work. Skill doesn't work

[tropic flame]

you dont need to put anything after that though

let me try

[vagrant crescent]

Nvm. Not putting anything worked

[tropic flame]

lmfao ight

[vagrant crescent]

Didn't knew, lol XD

Thanks pal, lol XD

[proud willow]

most EX fights give you a guaranteed totem for each completion, and let you turn in 10 totems for a weapon. The weapon also shows up randomly in the coffer

although if you want the nice looking version, that is crafted, not totem/dropped

[fading helm]

ohh i see

[dark scarab]

I mean today I gotta wait till reset (in 9 hours) before I can do it?

[dire kestrel]

My friend bought the fatter cat and it hasn't arrived yet. How long does it normally take to arrive?

[fluid tartan]

You guys know the guy with the short stubble beard in most of the FF14 trailers? I have been playing for a bit now and dont see him lol. Is he a character you meet at some point? I have met uriagner and ysthala but this guy I have not

[runic cairn]

he's the stand-in for the player character

[fluid tartan]

ohhhhhhhh

damn lol, there is a kid you meet who wants to be an adventurer and I thought it was him all grown up

thanks for the heads up its been killing me trying to figure out who that guy is in game

[unborn fern]

How do I join a free company

[small atlas]

u can get personally invited by people from FC's, some advertsise themselves in the main cities by talking through shout chat

[outer mural]

yes

[jovial quarry]

Do note that free trial players can't join FC's.

[rancid crypt]

what profession is good for beginners?

[boreal storm]

All

[rancid crypt]

na i mean farming jobs, not the "real" classes

like Goldsmith and stuff

[boreal storm]

Yeah all of them

[rancid crypt]

ah wow, nice 😄

thanks

[boreal storm]

They have the exact same skills

Only difference is what is made

[small atlas]

if they are gathering u will have to around collecting stuff, if they are crafters u will be making stuff

so depends if u want to walk around collecting stuff or making stuff

[rancid crypt]

ye but for craftin i need materials

therefore farmin stuff is essential?

[boreal storm]

So you gather

[dire prawn]

What symbol is this

[shut panther]

For gatherers mining and botany are the same shit with different models.

[boreal storm]

With gatherers

[small atlas]

thats tru, depends if u buy it from the market board and sell what u make for profit

[boreal storm]

Fisher is the only unique one

[shut panther]

For crafters, they all need materials from each other so it's quite good to level them alongside each other

[boreal storm]

But it’s ultimately not useful for any of the others

[small atlas]

@dire prawnlooking to meld materia

[shut panther]

What I would recommend to a new player starting is get botany/mining to 50, then level your crafters to that as well

Obviously you don't have to do this all at once

[rough patrol]

Hey are some of the ARR EX fights still hard on min ilvl no echo?

[shut panther]

Then from 50 go back to your gatherers until 60 if you're ft

[rancid crypt]

so as i read just now for example, a blacksmith crafts weapons, are the weapons or any stuff the professions craft usable? or like in WoW, where you need them for one doungen cause you will upgrade that pretty fast?

[shut panther]

Whenever a 8p raid patch releases crafted gear immediately obsoletes all previous gear

[leaden ginkgo]

I need some technical assistance

[shut panther]

And is generally all but required to do the Savage version of the raid that releases in the first month

It's not the best gear in the game, but it is always useful

[small atlas]

@rough patrolmight depend on how experienced the players are and how prepared they are for the fight, compared to newer trials, easy, but for people who are new it can be very hard

[rancid crypt]

whats up?

[rough patrol]

Yeah we were all new when we cleared them

People are saying in the asmongold Reddit that the fights are a complete joke but I think they didn’t do them min ilvl

But I felt like they were challenging for sure

[steel wedge]

Ok somebody help with my relic does this look good for a BM?

[shut panther]

Extremes are still not "difficult" content

They're basically the beginning of "content that isn't designed to fall over"

And the arr ones are mechanically the simplest

[rough patrol]

Really? Damn cuz it took us like 4 hours to beat titan ex but we have a mixed crew in terms of skill

[small atlas]

full crit hit, full direct hit, i'd say rest goes into spell speed unless u feel comfortable with lower spell speeds

low spell speeds might be annoying for a blm

[shut panther]

I would just shift the Det into DH unless you've actually looked at your stat tiers

[leaden ginkgo]

Been playing the game for about a month on ps4, had a perfect connection up until this afternoon, and it keeps kicking me and giving me error code "90002"
I've tried everything to fix it, nothing worked, soI logged in with my secondary character to see if they were affected the same way, and they work just fine. I can't even do anything with my main character, I can't continue quests, I can't fight, I can't even change my clothing or weapons. All it does is load me in the game, and I can run around for about two minutes before it disconnects me

[steel wedge]

Isn’t determination connected to magic why would I need direct hits that seems like a physical ability more than magic

[leaden ginkgo]

Try doing a flush dns, see if that helps

[shut panther]

Direct hit is just chance to deal bonus damage on any attack

[runic cairn]

no, determination affects all attacks

and direct hits are just critical hits but less so

[steel wedge]

Mmm ok

[leaden ginkgo]

Forgive my stupidty, how do I do that exactly?

[obsidian inlet]

Is there a way too upgrade diamond weapon?

[steel wedge]

So went from this to this

Better?

[leaden ginkgo]

In your windows search bar type CMD. Once there type this "ipconfig /flushdns" without the quotes

Hit enter after

Im on Playstation 4, not windows

[steel wedge]

So like this?

[small atlas]

isnt it crit > direct > det > spell speed?

[leaden ginkgo]

Ah crap, sorry I missed that. I'm not sure what to do then.

I'll contact support

[safe vigil]

If i am wanting to buy a character boost to 70. Do i need to have the job unlocked in game first or can i just buy it and use it right away?

[steel wedge]

I was always told spell speed is most important

[small atlas]

i would 510 crit, 510 direct, and the rest into determination, though spell speed can make it more comfortable with BLM, i felt the affects of lower spell speed when i did this also

[jade quartz]

BLM you can build either way

High SpS or high Crit

Personal comfort

[steel wedge]

Ok ya that’s how I played so far

[small atlas]

so basically, if u want BIG numbers go the route i said, if u want to be able to cast more abilities and cast them faster go for spell speed, thats what i think, u can always add spell speed or crit materia to your gear too

ive never been told to max spell speed though like lyon said it is personal comfort

[steel wedge]

Mmmm I see 🤔 how much does it cost to reset if I don’t like it?

[leaden ginkgo]

how many beast dailies can i do per day?

[jade quartz]

Only like 400 poetics to reallocate relic stats

[short spade]

if i buy endwalker do i also get the older dlc?

[dusty shard]

is there other way to charge chakra other than meditate ?

[leaden ginkgo]

A 90002 error is a local connection problem. If you're using wireless you can try using wired for half a day and see if that helps. If not, go for the nuke and reboot your router. The last option would be to contact your ISP

[jade quartz]

12 total

Between all tribes

[boreal storm]

In November

[steel wedge]

Once it comes out yes

So not now in November sadly

[short spade]

so its a waste to spend money on other dlc rn?

[night lagoon]

So buying Endwalker on steam right now would not grant me access to shadowbringers ?

[short spade]

if u have the patience

[steel wedge]

Do they still have the sale on the complete edition?

[short spade]

ye

[steel wedge]

That was just 20 bucks

[jade quartz]

You gain chakra when you crit

And

!action brotherhood

[steel wedge]

So I say that’s a steel for on the content

[zinc orbit]

**Brotherhood** : lvl 70 MNK (90.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Grants Brotherhood and Meditative Brotherhood to all nearby party members.
Brotherhood Effect: Increases damage dealt by 5%
Meditative Brotherhood Effect: 20% chance you open a chakra when party members under this effect execute a weaponskill or cast a spell
Duration: 15s

Powered by XIVAPI

[jade quartz]

When that’s up too

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a beast tribe that i should be focusing? that gives better upgrades for certain things?

[short spade]

oh, is the complete collector edition worth it? it was 90 euro now its 35?

[small atlas]

@steel wedge honestly if u got some poetics to spare, just try a few things out, 510 crit, 510 direct, and rest into spell speed, honestly i put the rest into determination but the change in spell speed sucked, i just added a couple spell speed materia to help though

there might be guides out there where they can help u decide, spell speed would help with stuff like trials where moving around a lot is needed

[jade quartz]

Your relic should reflect your overall build

Your stat build overall should be aiming for either high SpS or high crit

Check out the BiS options on the balance

[steel wedge]

Oh you can still add mats?

To your other gear

[fallen mantle]

at the end of each expansion is it worth doing end game stuff, or is it better to get into the next expansion? 🙂

[small atlas]

i think i just used 2 spell speed materia to put myself in a comfortable position but honestly i think i might need one or 2 more to be very comfortable

[plucky plank]

I'm wondering what I should do best.... I've been playing for about a month now and I'm about to finish heavensward...I'd really like to raid Coils of Bahamut, but I don't know where to start and if I should start at all. But rather continue to focus on story and first play to 80? I am now level 65

Am just a little disoriented

[jade quartz]

Up to you really

[leaden ginkgo]

Im using a mobile Hotspot device, and I turned it off for two hours before trying it again

[jade quartz]

Make a party finder and say either synced or unsynced in the description, depending on which you want

[small atlas]

catching up with expansions can help unlock better or just more ways to do end game content

[leaden ginkgo]

and my internet is working great for all my other online games

[noble saddle]

when will i reach HW after finishing ARR

[leaden ginkgo]

You could try #technology-discussion they might have some other ideas.

[jade quartz]

80 MSQ after the Praetorium

[potent talon]

Is it possible to give your racing chocobo more than one feed at a time?

[plucky plank]

It is about 15 hours i would say. Not much

[jade quartz]

Nope, gotta slowly do it one by one…

[noble saddle]

15 hours of doing boring quests?

[jade quartz]

Quests get meaty

[plucky plank]

Didnt find it that boring.

[ebon berry]

hey, does dungeon gear not have materia slots in it?

[jade quartz]

It does, at least post-level 60

[ebon berry]

oh ok i was just running lower dungeons and noticed none of it had slots in it

that makse sense, thanks

[vestal magnet]

is there an inkeep in mor dhona?

[jade quartz]

No

Only in main cities

[vestal magnet]

wack

maybe next expansion they'll add it

[jade quartz]

They won’t

[vestal magnet]

maybe 2 expansions

[jade quartz]

That’s not something wanted or needed

Nah

[vestal magnet]

idk man from a hamlet to a fort, eventually theyre gonna make it a city state

[jade quartz]

It hasn’t changed in six years

[vestal magnet]

that bs bruh, they add to it every expansion

[leaden ginkgo]

They're probably not going to touch anything in the old world. That hasn't gone well for so many MMO's in the past, the track record isn't great

[jade quartz]

No they don’t

They added to it over the courses of patches 2.1–2.5

Then it was done

[vestal magnet]

wack

[jade quartz]

Then for Idyllshire in Heavensward they did the same thing again

[leaden ginkgo]

Doma too

Something like it

[jade quartz]

In Stormblood they did Doman Reconstruction instead, and Ishgardian Reconstruction in Shadowbringers

[spiral valve]

is there anyone here on gilgamesh

[glacial isle]

Do lvl 70 dungeons drop materia randomly from chests?

[spiral valve]

i take that as a no thank you for your time

[quick elm]

Okay, before I ask anything, am I aloud to post pictures of crash errors?

[leaden ginkgo]

Yup go for it

[quick elm]

Cool

[jade quartz]

I believe they drop from mobs and possibly from some chests

Same in 80 dungeons

[glacial isle]

ah

[jade quartz]

Either way you’ll probably have a few by end of dungeon

[vestal magnet]

yo which race has this hairstyle?

[glacial isle]

was wondering why i kept getting materia randomly

[jade quartz]

That’s a Hyur highlander

[quick elm]

I got this after setting my second monitor in-game to display the game. I then changed my second monitor to my main monitor. Any help?

English version of the game btw

[leaden ginkgo]

Wow, that's a new one on me

[vestal magnet]

fuck man, that hair would look good on an elezen or femroe

[quick elm]

I haven't actually tried launching it again though

[thorn thicket]

Which of the ShB trials give 2 totems per clear??

[jade quartz]

Hades, and I think emerald and diamond?

[thorn thicket]

So not Ruby?

[quick elm]

Okay, I relaunched it and it worked, opened and booted up. 🙂 Sorry for wasting you guys' time 😛

[jade quartz]

Actually might just be Hades and Diamond

[leaden ginkgo]

Not a waste for me. I've been compiling a document with fixes and this added to a potential one. Thank you

[quick elm]

Oh cool! 😄

I wonder why it had japanese text on an english copy of the game

[thorn thicket]

[leaden ginkgo]

Does the manderville quest line have any further dances? I want to know who the thief is and all, but on some other day.

anyone know how aetherial reduction works? I have a collectable at an appropriate rating and theres no option to reduce it?

[proud willow]

at the very end of the Stormblood arc

[honest anvil]

best dance ^

[slow isle]

I’m in shb

[proud willow]

Pretty sure only gathered collectibles can be reduced, not crafted

[timber anchor]

it work's on resourses not items

[honest anvil]

ye then you wont be gated by msq doing hildi quests:3

[tepid palm]

what's a 'resource'?

[versed siren]

when I glamor certain armor, the glamor sticks to that piece and not on the equipment slot? e.g. I want to keep the glamor when switching from SCH to MNR

[timber anchor]

example https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Levin_Mint

[jade quartz]

They mean it’s for gathered items not crafted items

[timber anchor]

yap)

[jade quartz]

And specifically items gathered as collectibles from ephemeral nodes

[slow isle]

I asked about this too, but never got an answer.

[tepid palm]

I have a gathered collectible in that picture, with an appropriate rating, so why doesnt that apply? (the ice thing)

[versed siren]

i don't have the resources to test but I assume that it sticks to specific gear pieces

[patent citrus]

stick to the piece

[versed siren]

that's how ppl seem to change glamour fast

[jade quartz]

Not gathered from an ephemeral node

It’s only those certain items

[tepid palm]

okay, thx

[steel wedge]

How do I get more gold for law order set?

Looking for help 3 people to create Free Company (Cerberus)

/trade in my silver for gold

[patent citrus]

just run more DR

[stable knot]

@slow isle I'm not sure if I understand completely what you mean, but I assume you want the same glamour for different class?

If that is the case, link the glamour plate to the classes you want. Use the glamour dresser and then put the glamour on glamour plate and link it to the class by opening your character, click the note like symbol beside the recommended equipment, right click, link to glamour plate

[patent citrus]

and do the weekly DR stuffs

Delubrum I mean, not Duty Roulette

[steel wedge]

Right

So how do I trade in my silver for gold?

[patent citrus]

if im just tryna grind to max level, is it worth it to try and get flying in heavensward areas?

[sour pumice]

!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.

[patent citrus]

not your Job Level

[keen mortar]

I'm a old returning player (back from arr) my free 14 days is about to end and i'm lvl 60 now, i want to continue.
I saw the "FINAL FANTASY XIV ONLINE COMPLETE EDITION" is currently at -60% for 15.99 euro with 30 days play time with all expension until shadowbringer included.
can i buy it even if i already have arr ?
Because if i buy shadowbringer directly it doesnt have 30 days play time and that a problem

[leaden ginkgo]

okay cool i got confused since im level 26

[patent citrus]

if anything says about level requirements

It's mostly refer to your Quest Level

not Your Job Level

Hello folks, I am about to start my FFXIV journey and am undecided between tanking and healing. Is it wise to persue the healing route in order to learn more about dungeon routes and how to tackle those challenges before I duo my feet into tanking waters, applying the stuff I picked up as healer?

[patent citrus]

Just spam your Aether Compass while you are Questing

they are not that far from your Questing Route

[dusty shard]

how to spam aether compass

actually

how to use aether compass

[patent citrus]

put them to your Hotbar

[onyx finch]

yeah i was just lazy to do the quests too

[ivory rover]

Do the maim and mend buffs stack together or are you just using the latest one?

[sour pumice]

But it goes a long way for your future questing

[stable knot]

It is okay, I started as healer too

[onyx finch]

ok yeah i figured, so yeah it pays off i guess

[sour pumice]

If anything its not important but it certainly helps

[keen mortar]

ah so there is no other option for me to buy shadowbringer or endwalker and then also buy 30 days subs ?

[sour pumice]

where is the aether compass hotkey

its not in general

You can craft coffee biscuits for leve turn in which can make money, you'll need to make a lot of them. also raid food etc sells on the mb

is it bad money compared to other crafters or comparable?

Where do I pick up the BLM class quest? It's no longer at the Thaumaturge's guild

[clear beacon]

Any item i should buy using Gil if i'm a free to play player? i've hit 300k cap and i'm still not sure what to do with Gil.

[naive horizon]

In terms of market board it just depends on what sells. this explains the leve quest thing https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/juivwe/how_to_make_1800000_gil_in_an_afternoon_with/

[glacial veldt]

What I mean to say is that I'm level 35 and now expecting the next in the quest line. However, when I go to thaumaturge's guild, it's not present. Because I don't think I pick them up from this guild anymore, I think there's another location, I'm just not sure where

[midnight drum]

Try near the miners guild

[plain python]

you can also craft Syrup with Alchemist. More gold income, I think.

!faq job

How do I unlock my job?

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

!faq msqtracker

[zinc orbit]

MSQ Tracker image guide

1. Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.

2. An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.

By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.

[wanton niche]

it is completely not important what class ur retainer got right?

[warm snow]

Ish

[runic cairn]

keep in mind, you'll have to level it yourself

[warm snow]

Battle job doesn't matter, what type of gatherer does

[runic cairn]

their level can't be higher than your own

[warm snow]

And ofc your retainer can't out level you for whatever job

[wanton niche]

already read that!

[wanton niche]

why exactly?

[main wigeon]

yo so uh, most of my GIL is gone... around 7-8 mil. does anyone know how could that even happen?

[alpine knot]

I have a question. I am on PS4 and trying to setup the set toggle when pulling my weapon. But somehow that doesn't have any effect on my cross. :/

[warm snow]

Miners get mining material, botanists botanist material, you see where I'm going with this yet?

yep. but i can just give them this, while mine als already higher level right?

is the max lvl for f2p lvl 60 or 69?

[wanton niche]

oh, retainer cant be gnb?

[warm snow]

Important distinction: its a trial not f2p, if you buy the game you can't go back to trial

[warm snow]

Iirc they can but they have to start as a basic class

[alpine shadow]

when somebody else logs into your account

[wanton niche]

OH so if they reach 60 i can switch him?

[warm snow]

Can't remember but probably

[wanton niche]

okay okay thanks

Remember there are no gnb weapons below 60

[honest anvil]

retainers cant have jobs iirc, no? anything with a soul crystal is off limit to them

did you have 2fa enabled?

you know somebody else does not need xivlauncher to login to your ffxiv account if you leaked your password

I do know that, am sure that I didn't.

it's weird, but I guess it doesn't matter it's my last day and I won't subscribe

[wanton niche]

okay okay so im 60 BLM now and i just noticed im still gettin 6 more skills my keybinds rn totally suck and i NEED to know, what skills as a BLM im gonna not really use that i need to bind them importantly.

[fast talon]

that is definitely rmt

[fast talon]

top of my head the only generally bad one is that one ice spell thats an aoe around you

oh and scathe

no one uses scathe

[fading helm]

how do you get skybuilder scripts?

[fast talon]

firmament. either turn in crafted stuff or gather in the instance there.

[fading helm]

what instnace

[hot eagle]

yes use the report rmt button/option and ignore these or can also blacklist and can be a while till they are banned since square does it in waves

[fading helm]

like how long will it take to get 8k, for the crab mount ?

[wanton niche]

whats with the MP gain over time, thats not working while in fire phase right?

[fast talon]

the diadem

[fast talon]

lucid dreaming? no, doesnt work while in fire phase. i keep on my hotbar just cuz i have room but i mostly only use it if i come back from dying.

[wanton niche]

whats with the -10% debuff thingy on one enemy AND sleep?

[prime trout]

how can I get there? I had to skip the cutscene (rl reasons), wanted to rewatch it before proceeding and ported to an inn. but now I cant seem to get back here again.

[fast talon]

oh i forgot blm have sleep, yeah thats not useful. the -10% debuff is used though for mitigation

[fading helm]

do u have flight unlocked there?

[prime trout]

I am sitting in Ishgard and every exit brings me either to pillar/foundation, coerthas or the cloud top

[fast talon]

even the airship dock

near the astro guild?

[fading helm]

how long do u think it will take to get 8k scripts? @fast talon

[prime trout]

yeah. thats the one where I am currently. But the only exits are for cloud top

[fast talon]

not sure sorry been a while since ive done it

if you have a lot of gil to spare you could mass buy the ingredients for an easy craft

[flat night]

has it been made clear how the regalia mount will be obtained when it comes back?

[fast talon]

and there are macros online to make it max reward

[hot eagle]

need to talk to one of the npc there iirc

[fast talon]

try talking to an npc, like, airship person or something

[hot eagle]

iirc it should be notrelchamps

[prime trout]

Thanks! That strange out-of-place looking npc was it. I must have missed him. Only spoke to the ticketer

[sturdy brook]

I heard names are tied to a cluster or something. Does this mean I can have the character of the same name in a different cluster?

you can have the same names in different worlds, but not same worlds

[near wedge]

Do samurai's use third eye and the eyes open skills at 80?

[dim marsh]

how long is the lvl 45 job gear good for?

like do i replace at lvl 55 or something

[naive horizon]

you get job gear at lvl50 again

also you can buy ironworks gear for poetics in mor dhona

that should be the go to for lvl50

[leaden ginkgo]

Just a quick question, but do we need medicine for savage contents now? Or, is food enough?

[fast talon]

well any mitigation helps

and any less healing the healers have to do is nice too

[fast talon]

well more dps wouldnt hurt

[dim marsh]

oh I do? okay thank you

[fast talon]

the lvl 50 quest will give you a coffer. use that and it will have way better gear than what you have now. im assuming you havent yet, but once you finish ARR you can then purchase Ironworks gear which is the best gear at lvl 50 and will be good until like halfway through heavensward.

[dim marsh]

oo okay and yeah im only at msq lvl 35 right now

[spring lintel]

Can i somehow check if a specific FATE (needed for hunt) has spawned or do i have to be in the same map?

[dim marsh]

so I'm assuming there's still a bit til the end of ARR

[fast talon]

quite a bit, yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks! Also, can I still join e12 practice parties with around 525ish now? Most people have complete 530 gear+535 weapon in practice parties, so I'm wondering whether I should get 530 at first.

[fast talon]

thats all dependent on the person hosting the PF i suppose, if they set an ilvl requirement to join or not.

i mean some of the 530 gear that you get not from savage (so cryptlurker) arent super good for the jobs theyre for and people were able to clear this content with 520, but it will still be up to whoever posted the PF/practice party

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks! One last question, but if I would like to get head+hand+feet (the rest are 530), shall I be going for e11 or e10? I see many e11 in pf, but only a few e10. Also, my leg and body are cryptlurker 530, but shall I be aiming to get them from savage as well?

[fast talon]

either use the kupo-bot channel or check out the balance to figure out what the best in slot (bis) gear for your job is as it differs from job to job, though it will always be a mixture of cryptlurker and eden gear

as for the first half of the question, check the lodestone page for them as they show what kind of gear they drop

[sacred oracle]

how to have extreme trials on the daily roulette?

[naive horizon]

only mentor roulette would have extremes

especially the ARR ones

[sacred oracle]

how to get mentor roulette?

[sacred oracle]

ooof

[spring lintel]

During turn in fates can i just turn 6 of the item and go on or do i have to wait for the fate to end?

[naive horizon]

yeah you can just turn in items, to get gold on a fate you'd need to trade a certain number, you'd also need to make sure the fate gets completed if you do leave it, so if theres no one else at it you would be better staying

[spring lintel]

so even if i go to another zone and the fate gets completed i do get xp and seals and whatnot?

[naive horizon]

hmmm not sure about changing zones

you may need to stay in the same zone for you to get credit

[spring lintel]

yeah, probably

but if i stay in the same zone is all good?

[naive horizon]

yeah as long as the fate gets completed

[leaden ginkgo]

http://puu.sh/I0cSV/984158fee2.jpg what does that symbol mean?

When you unlock flying it will be maximum speed anyway

because flying speed is already as fast as mount increase

You basically unlock flying in each zone as you finish the first msq arc for it

[spring lintel]

aight

[next vector]

depends on the map but basically when you finish stuff to do on that map, you have all you need to unlock it

[spring lintel]

thats quickly

[next vector]

also need to find all the aether currents

[shut panther]

Note that you have to find server currents and do some side quests

[spring lintel]

Is there any squadron guide btw?

[shut panther]

But those are all on the primary msq path except for one awful aether current in SB

[stray delta]

hey guys so I just got FFxiv from steam and managed to create an account. My question i, how would you change the download location for the game when its downloading? I dont see any option for that in the launcher its self

[next vector]

yeah. @spring lintel what i suggest you to do is to often check your aether compass while doing msq so you get aether currents on the go

[spring lintel]

is it a key item or do i buy it on the market?

[next vector]

key item

if you dont have it yet, you'll probably receive it from msq

[cosmic pilot]

Can we lock a certain hotbar across all jobs?

[next vector]

yes

[narrow jay]

@spring lintel

[spring lintel]

cant click it

[narrow jay]

oh hmmm

[next vector]

keep the ticks on the ones you dont want to change when you change job

[spring lintel]

nvm i found something in google

[cosmic pilot]

Thank you

[alpine shadow]

you change the download location when you hit "install" on steam

[upbeat cape]

Yo
I'm a little confused about how levels work
All I know is each job has its own level
So, say I wanna progress the campaign that requires ~lv50, but I just unlocked a new job and it's sitting at 30
Does that mean I need to first level that job or does it look at your highest job or something else

[split bear]

Hey, stupid question. Is there a RP Discord/Subreddit for FF14?

[alpine shadow]

you would need to level the current class you are on to progress

[upbeat cape]

I see
So either stick with what I can play with or get grinding

[alpine shadow]

yeah, there are potd you could do, or daily roulettes

[naive horizon]

There's some links in #resources for other discords, not sure if there is RP stuff but you could take a look

[spring lintel]

do people do extreme garuda lvl 50 or get max level and then farm her?

[alpine shadow]

for the mount? they just usually unsync it

[next vector]

i do every ex once synched, then farm it unsycked when im high level

[waxen harbor]

is there a guide how to lv up doh?

[alpine shadow]

but you don't lvl to 80 just to do garuda unsynced

[stray delta]

yes I have done that

but when you enter the launcher to "actually download the game" its not downloading it to the path i set it to

[alpine shadow]

so, if you set to install FFXIV on D: drive, it installs the game on C: drive?

[stray delta]

yea thats what i seeing

i completely reinstalled the game

and im trrying again

ill wait 30 min and see wherre the files are actually going

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm looking for "The little postmooogle that could" quest but it isn't where the wiki says it is

was that a temporary quest?

[honest anvil]

it’s locked behind many many quests iirc

[next vector]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Delivery_Moogle_Quests

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks!

[next vector]

not sure if you have to do all of them or just the patch you need

np!

[leaden ginkgo]

oh holy shit

that's alot yeah

[hazy linden]

the game wont start can someone help

[stray delta]

yup its not fixed...still downloading on the C: drive.....

[next vector]

well, you're aiming for glamour. that's the highest aspiration in the game 😘

[alpine shadow]

so, if you go to (on steam) FFXIV -> Options-> Open Local Files, where does it bring to?

there has been people having the same issue

[limber parcel]

Just hit 80 on my dancer in Bozja, now I'm not sure which class to focus on getting to 80 next, any suggestions?

[next vector]

crafting question: if i use prudent touch AND waste not, do they stack?

[stray delta]

it takes me to my back up plus (D: drive) @alpine shadow

[hazy linden]

my game keeps crashing as soon as i start it can someone help?

[next vector]

im sorry but if someone active is not answering they probably dont know the solution

[dusky nest]

also #technology-discussion might be able to get you better help

[alpine shadow]

can you try installing SteamEdit and check if the path is set correct there?

[warm snow]

Roll a dice, lip a coin or something

[next vector]

you're welcome...

[limber parcel]

i just settled on summoner 🙂

[near wedge]

Is there a macro command to hide the chat log im making a minimal hud layout and dont want to have to manually do it everytime

[stray delta]

ill download it rn

[alpine shadow]

see if setting the working directory to the D drive where ffxiv is

[proud vector]

it says the yield for my ice shards increases all the time during mining. Is there a way to view how high it is now?

[alpine shadow]

if the yield is increased, then you should have a number on the mining node?

[stray delta]

umm Thaun, so the working Dr isnt set

[golden monolith]

Guys how important are proffessions, exactly? I am lvl 30 war but my armorsmith/blacksmith is like lvl 10. Should I learn them or will I be fine?

[stray delta]

so should I go to steam copy the Dr from there and the use it?

[alpine shadow]

yeah, try setting it to something like D:/Games/Steam/common/steamapps/FINALFANTASYXIV or whervever the path you set it to be on steam

[next vector]

crafting is usually end game stuff but it's no harm if you have fun leveling them beforehand

[barren granite]

also they have turn in missions where you can gain xp from just turning in items.

[next vector]

so, im lvl 66 goldsmith but can't use manipulation lvl 65 (haven't unlocked it at all). is it from a job quest?

[stray delta]

which 1 do i link it to

[alpine shadow]

"FINAL FANTASY XIV Online" folder

[stray delta]

just the ffxiv foldeer, or to the game

[barren granite]

so you can keep lv up to your main by doing thiose when you unlock them.

[stray delta]

ok so just the folder. Thanks a lot

[alpine shadow]

also, are there any files inside the "game" folder?

[next vector]

yeah, @golden monolith check the gc for the daily turn ins

[stray delta]

im checking

[alpine shadow]

bet its empty

[stray delta]

yes there are some files in there

thats wierd tho

[twilit abyss]

huh. pretty good start

[barren granite]

for the log in queu is it first come first serve ?

[twilit abyss]

i should keep this right?

[barren granite]

or do hiugher lv get priority ?

[alpine shadow]

"first come first serve"

if you queue first, and 10000 people queue right after you, then you are first in queue

[wheat copper]

does arm's Length work on every knock back draw in or is there exceptions?

[barren granite]

k

[hoary pilot]

would anyone be willing to help me rush a alexander raid unsync?

[pallid hearth]

Is there a tool or website that shows where to unlock certain quest or stuffs? Some quest are far too branch-y and I got so confused

[barren granite]

plus this game has tons of Quests ... most of any game i've played

[honest anvil]

its tooltip specifically say “most” so ye, there are exceptions

[leaden ginkgo]

I used a lodestone in Zadnor and it just took me back to original aetheryte, is there a way I can tell it where to teleport me?

[gusty cipher]

Definitely not everything. It's gonna be on a per-case basis

[wheat copper]

@honest anvil is there a list i can find somewhere?

[barren granite]

i just google the Quest name and something usually comes up w/ the quests outlined

[runic cairn]

nope. it's specifically starting point

[pallid hearth]

I just did, only that quest is branched from somewhere else

[leaden ginkgo]

so it's pretty much a useable return?

[honest anvil]

there’s none that i’m aware of but the general rule is that if it has a grounded telegraph then arms’ length works; if it’s sth else then it’s a maybe

savages and extremes and ultimates have specific strats involving arms length in macros/ guides

so whenever you do one, look up guides first and you’re golden :3

[kind jungle]

Hello ,
If for example i have bought US version of the game and i am located in europe if i just go to EU data center and play on eu servers will it affect my ping in any way becaus eof thebgame version ?

ex. is this .. all the side Quests in limsa

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/quest/?category2=3&category3=38

[kind jungle]

Anybody has any info regarding this question ?

[runic cairn]

[twilit abyss]

except when buying expansions

wondering what this week's is

[naive horizon]

when you finish the msq in an area you get a mount speed boost

[barren granite]

[spring lintel]

do the dialogues become easier to understand later on or is it just ff14's thing?

[obsidian patio]

Try this subreddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/gameswap/

Also, subscription should be the exact same or nearly the exact same across all currencies

SE fixed most of the currency options that would've resulted in a cheaper subscription compared to Dollar/Euro/Yen

[leaden ginkgo]

https://gyazo.com/98b4ea4a38fe77b78ed9d7dc67c07ae4 how I make my game stop doing this? :/

[obsidian patio]

that's the thunder weather

unless you notice it in areas without that weather

[barren granite]

when is EW release ?

ty

planning my PTO :p

[leaden ginkgo]

i got an item levle 90 weapon coffer but cannot open it

whats the point of them giving it to me ? 😮

[jade quartz]

Do you have a hero’s belt of ___ in your armoury chest or inventory?

[leaden ginkgo]

i have on my monk, but i switched to a red mage so i have no belt currently

[jade quartz]

What job is the coffer for?

[leaden ginkgo]

Do melds apply to Bozja?

[obsidian patio]

nope

[leaden ginkgo]

doesnt seem to mention

[obsidian patio]

The coffer doesn't have a red mage weapon so you can't open it as red mage

it only has ARR/HW job weapons

[chrome helm]

if i buy the game and have no gametime. Will i still be able to access it as "demo"?

[leaden ginkgo]

ah ok

[runic cairn]

no

once you own the game you need a sub to play it

[kindred frost]

Do people do omega normal raids? I am about to start them but not sure about queue times. Like, will it be like the coils where you don't find people?

[jade quartz]

No

[jade quartz]

Yes people do them, they’re in a roulette. It’s not like Coil.

Queues might still take awhile though

[kindred frost]

Ahh, thanks. That's good. Soo I'll queue during reset for more luck I suppose

[turbid marsh]

Yo if I get shadowbringers on steam does it also come with a sub? I remember reading somewhere that it did but that could be 100% wrong

[agile laurel]

that would help

[chrome helm]

Is it a good time to grab the complete edition while on sale? or is starter edition better

[potent lava]

Do any of the resistance relic steps take away collected items if you cancel the quest?

[obsidian patio]

no.

only the starter edition and complete edition come with sub

and you can't use the complete edition if you have the starter edition registered.

[obsidian patio]

nope

[obsidian patio]

up to you, sales are fairly unpredictable.

also depends on if you're fine with trial restrictions until hitting level 60.

[turbid marsh]

Gonna go out on a limb and say there won't be any day 1 sales for endwalker and it'll also probs be $60 - $70 (Aud for me)?

[obsidian patio]

I don't see Endwalker going on sale for like, 2-3 months at minimum

[limpid glacier]

which materia do I need to put in my zodiac relic during the novus step?

[obsidian patio]

whichever combat materias you want from grade 1 through 4

[dim quarry]

can i add this FPS counter to the screen?

[obsidian patio]

can't.

[dim horizon]

Hey, I am about to play the game for the first time but when I want to select my world in the Chaos data centre I see no information indicating if the world give bonus xp for new players(saw this on youtube videos). Was this removed?

[obsidian patio]

Not "removed"

[dim quarry]

'Preferred' servers

[obsidian patio]

just no Chaos worlds qualify to be a preferred world

[dim horizon]

then what about light worlds?

[obsidian patio]

Preferred worlds are used as incentives to fill lower population servers

currently, no NA/EU worlds are preferred

[dim horizon]

I don't see any indication of preferred servers or bonus xp on either chaos or light

[obsidian patio]

only JP has preferred worlds.

[dim horizon]

ah ok

[dim quarry]

https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/ i used this

[upper wren]

its ok the leveling pacing is really good

you'll only miss the road to 70 on alt jobs

[obsidian patio]

as long as you do leveling roulette once every day or so when you unlock it, you won't be level gated during the story

[dim quarry]

yeh the road to 70 buff doesnt speed up MSQ so its kind of a useless buff unless your gonna pour 200+ hours in the few weeks you have it.

[dim horizon]

ok, thanks for the help 🙂

[dim quarry]

im assuming you're European being on Light/Chaos. I waited until none peak hours to make my character. which was like 8:30 in the UK and i was able to get the buff.

[spring maple]

That's 4 months to finish MSQ of all expansions, without rushing cause I like to take the time to appreciate the dialogues, can it be done ? 😮

[fast talon]

depends on how much side content you do as well

[simple pine]

there is no longer any preferred worlds on light/chaos, so cant even wait for nonpeak atm 😦

[dim quarry]

i dunno, there is LOADS to do in this game, its easy to get side tracked

[fast talon]

as theres some pretty interesting stuff out there

[obsidian patio]

most definitely

[fast talon]

not to mention...17 jobs? i dont remember

[dim quarry]

there is none now but it can change on the fly. unless i missed an official statement on the matter.

[spring maple]

I don't do side quests (the blue one yes) and I level one crafting profession with a gathering profession with the resting xp every day 😮

That's all I do

Except one evening for the guild where we do silly things at the gold saucer kekw

[dim quarry]

im at 10days 7hours and i just finished 3.0

[fast talon]

i think it should be possible

[spring maple]

ok thanks, cause I don't want to rush it, but at the same time feels nice to know I might not be far ahead when the xpack will come :3

[dim quarry]

imo you want to be caught up in MSQ atleeast because there is no PTR so when it comes yo new dungeons etc there are no guides so its all trial and error which ive heard is some of the most fun people have had, like figuring out alliance raids etc.

[spring maple]

yeah i know, but I won't rush if I see I'm not gonna make it with my pace either

[versed siren]

what's the difference between Eos and Selene Faeries?

[spring maple]

doesn't feel good for me

[dim quarry]

colour

[runic cairn]

there's no gameplay difference

[versed siren]

ok tnx

[lethal cape]

Are all the warrior axes this small and short? Are there any ones that have a very large handle and head?

[dim quarry]

what leve are you?

[lethal cape]

Something similar to this

[spring maple]

This is a noob axe

Later on you'll have big bad axe

[lethal cape]

Yeah but even the ones I found in-game at level 80 have small handles o.o

[somber onyx]

anyone a high level samurai class player can come voice chat with me for a few seconds please?

[spring maple]

oh then I don't know, probably not then

[dim quarry]

look up glamour

[obsidian patio]

axes in general start to get big past 50

[fast talon]

there are bigger ones but they also do scale with player size to some extent

[lethal cape]

Looking for something about this size

[somber onyx]

anyone a high level samurai class player can come voice chat with me for a few seconds please?

[obsidian patio]

Also weapon size is influenced by race, so if you truly want the biggest axe you'll need to play a big race like Roegadyn, Make Au Ra, or Hrothgar

[obsidian patio]

If no one is responding then no one is willing to.

[lethal cape]

The issue isn't with the head of the axe, it's with the length of the handle being short

[honest anvil]

but anyhow, the axe you posted is about the smallest ones … most axes are giant

[somber onyx]

@obsidian patio are you a samurai player that is willing to help me ? if not why are you replying :S?

[chrome helm]

how does sub works? Is it just 30 earth days or 30 (720hrs) days worth of playing the game.

[obsidian patio]

I'm replying to you to tell you not to spam the channel with requests.

[somber onyx]

im looking for help

it's a token for a beast tribe daily with the sylphs

[somber onyx]

anyone a high level samurai class player can come voice chat with me for a few seconds please?

[lethal cape]

30 days from when you buy it

[warped nest]

If you have a samurai question

[crystal bluff]

Dude
Just ask here

[warped nest]

Just ask

[fast talon]

i think they meant just ask your question instead of asking for someone to go into a vc

[mossy moss]

token for a daily?

[obsidian patio]

yes

[mossy moss]

so i turn it in and get a new daily?

[somber onyx]

its going to be too hard to type it, it be easier via voice bro

[obsidian patio]

not quite

[short spade]

should i buy the dlc before reaching 60 on trial? im lvl 3 btw...

[jade quartz]

Please don’t spam your request over and over.

[obsidian patio]

some of the ARR daily quests want you to complete a fate, and have it drop an item as proof of completing it.

[faint flare]

Just type it out. People don't like going to voice for 1 guy

[lethal cape]

I meant ask your question here and I will reply 😅
I play SAM

[leaden ginkgo]

hey guys i just got lvl 34 and unlocked fire 3 on my black mage but it doesn't replace my previous fire spell. it is in fact more expensive for mana but also does more damage im i suposed to ditch fire2 and only use fire3 or i use both

[somber onyx]

oh lord
