Is that allegory currency hard to come by or should I just get the MGP vouchers? :3

[jade quartz]

The original asker of the question has completed the MSQ

[naive ridge]

not at all

allegory is plentiful

[leaden ginkgo]

Sweet thanks!

[jade quartz]

but I'm not sure they're even here anymore

[pearl wharf]

silver voucher can get you a hard to get item you can use or sell

[jade quartz]

so the conversation doesn't need to drag on

[primal horizon]

am i allowed to post a link to a video here?

[naive ridge]

take either the silver commend if you want the khloe reward or the MGP

[jade quartz]

yes

[naive kraken]

allegory is pretty easy and doesn't have a reset cap, just the general 2000 cap. so unless you really need them urgently, it's fine taking the other rewards

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh wow had no idea they were available on marketboard

[primal horizon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQOHJzrJZwI

for those that just cant understand how to register 😄 so i made this to help 😄

[outer mural]

depends on the item but yes

i use my silver vouchers and sell the wind-up toys becuase they're like 200k each

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh wow, great tip thanks!

[pearl wharf]

make sure you look up what they are going for first

before choosing a toy/item

[leaden ginkgo]

Sweet thanks so much guys

[naive kraken]

i remember winning an ornate and getting the pentameld achievement as cheap as free XD

[brittle valve]

[whole mauve]

[leaden ginkgo]

Mogstation; Yellow-pommed Moogle Cap

[jade quartz]

Not really. You can do quests side by side but there's not a real grouping function for quests. You will have to disband the party whenever there is a solo quest battle instance.

[solar kindle]

Can the ingame barber change face tattoos?

[jade quartz]

You will be required to do dungeons and trials for the MSQ which you can do together however

[jade quartz]

yes

[whole mauve]

ye cause we are level 15 andhjes 17 but i dont see it worth it to play on a quest right now since the xp is just low

[boreal storm]

It’s not in mogstation yet, I don’t think

[whole mauve]

thanks Lyon

[jade quartz]

The main story quests are mandatory and the primary way to level your first class.

That’s not what they asked for

Dyable?

No

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh wow had no idea that existed

[feral ridge]

Hey, can you get banned for making a PF asking for people with a certain parse minimum? Like, as a person that's not using any third party software and just looking at the logs?

[whole mauve]

up to level 80 ?

[leaden ginkgo]

I mean they did ask for Moogle Cap 😛 Didn't specify whether they wanted Lovely or Yellow Pommed.

[jade quartz]

If it explicitly says that in the PF description, yes

[runic cairn]

yes.

[sacred thicket]

if i were to unsync trials for blue mage spells, what are the chances i still get the spells? (i do know sync is 100%)

[runic cairn]

do not mention parses in game. ever.

[outer mural]

^

if you want parses for something, tell them to contact you via discord where it will be safe to talk to you there

otherwise you're just asking for trouble

[feral ridge]

I'm not the one doing it

[outer mural]

then please relay this to whoever's doing it

[arctic knot]

||when I hit 60 with dragoon they gave me a whole set of armor as a class set, does this happen with samurai or am I stuck farming tomestones?||

[feral ridge]

I'm just seeing a PF right now that kinda implies it

[outer mural]

or if you odn't know them, let them suffer

[outer mural]

none for sam

[feral ridge]

"P1 90+ P2 if P1 is clean"

What the pf says

Seemed grey enough to pass

And I was arguing with a friend about it XD

[runic cairn]

well they best pray someone doesn't decide they don't like that and report them

[jade quartz]

Yeah that's like

ambiguously worded

though the meaning is obvious to anyone in the know

GMs may or may not action it

[feral ridge]

True but on paper you could still defend it's not about it

[runic cairn]

anyone with a brain would see through that.

[jade quartz]

I have sometimes seen GMs give people an obvious out, asking people "how did you know those numbers?" etc.

[feral ridge]

And just say some shit like "Oh, it's for people that reached 90% "

[jade quartz]

and the people can reply "oh I just estimated by eyeballing the battle log and watching the damage numbers"

but some GMs would not be so lenient

[brittle valve]

thanks so much. i tried going to the recompense officer, i went into purchase valentione's day items like the link say but the guy sells nothing. any ideas?

[leaden ginkgo]

Not worth the risk, either way.

[boreal storm]

Unless you did the event, you can’t rebuy the items from it

[solar kindle]

does your character height also determine your weapon height?

so a smaller character of the same race will have smaller weapons?

[jade quartz]

weapons scale to your character yes

[maiden cypress]

SO I do believe I preordered Endwalker collectors but my Mog station doesn't reflect it....

[runic cairn]

because you only get the collector's edition content once the game's out

the key isn't sent out til then, so you haven't registered it, so you don't "own" it

[maiden cypress]

But at the FFXIV store it shows

ah I see but the store doesn't even show I have the preoder

[spare moth]

[lost ibex]

Heya folks!
So I play on NA servers and completely forgot my account is registered to EU, its been a while since i did a expac purchase XD
I bought a US region standard digital pre-order, so if anyone wants to swap their EU standard code for my US region code I'd be super excited!

[ancient nexus]

For the free login campaign, if I take it on 23 August (the final day), will I still able to login for another 14 days?
Or does my free login also end on that day?

[leaden ginkgo]

I use SE site, and tried to add 90 days game time to a remaining 20 days playtime from collectors edition + refer a friend (15 days)

I went through mogstation, account services - and chose payment type, it was for my main (and only) account, and 90 days.
The next page said total $0.00 USD with a message below:

• Your subscription is still valid. Payment is not required during your current subscription period.

how do I buy game time through them lol

[lost ibex]

yeh its 14 days from the day u register it. do note it counts the day u registered it as the first day, so if u register at 1 minute before midnight, u bsaically lose a day. and itll expire at 11:59 local time on the 14th day.

[ancient nexus]

Oh, I see
Okay, thank you

[fickle plume]

Is there a system ingame for customizing gear builds? I've been leveling alternate jobs and it bothers me that i have to swap out each individual gear piece each time i switch job

[rancid crypt]

guys could someone tell me a quick way to level up, EXCEPT for Msq? Im just wanna play gunbreaker and i simply cant handle playin Msq with my Summoner any longer 😅

[rancid crypt]

you should have a button in your character window where it automatically equips you the best gear for your current Job

[fickle plume]

which button is that?

[rancid crypt]

To the left where Job Name is written

[fickle plume]

recommend gear?

[rancid crypt]

yes sir

[fickle plume]

thanks man

[rancid crypt]

your welcome mate

[lost ibex]

be aware recomended gear tends to prioritise item level, and if u have crafting gear, it could very well put on some crafting gear with a higher ilvl than gear for ur dow/dom job

[rancid crypt]

Right, that´s a good point 😄

[jade quartz]

I don't think I've ever seen it do crafting gear 👀

usually it's main damage stat, vitality and defense that it prioritises, sometimes in a weird order which I don't entirely understand

but this stops being a problem after level 50

[fickle plume]

alright thanks for the info

[lost ibex]

yeh ive found it only on lower levels, but generally lower levels is when people are going to e clicking that button the most

[thorn pine]

so i have 1 character already that had the standard subscription, changing it to entry won't do anything right? (I only have 1 character on diabolos)

[wheat plume]

Is E12S harder than Coil T9 (non mine)?

[lost ibex]

nope, ur good

[jade quartz]

By non MINE do you mean unsynced?

[wheat plume]

sync but no mine

[thorn pine]

ty

[jade quartz]

hm

E12S probably harder

but T9 does have weird ARR mechanic design

[wheat plume]

hardest fight I've done is nael sync (no mine) and now I'm trying e12s and I wanna know how hard will it be, compared to Nael

[kindred light]

is a macro like this still going to affect my dps? I'm not using any <waits> here

[little swift]

its not going to play all those skills

[naive ridge]

^

[little swift]

because they're on the global cooldown

[kindred light]

yeah but I want them to cast in order

[naive ridge]

it'll use one and the rest will fail

[little swift]

you're literally accomplishing nothing by doing them

[kindred light]

instead of using up 3 different buttons

[little swift]

it won't cast them in order

because again of the global cooldown

[jade quartz]

please delete that macro

[naive ridge]

you are casting them all at once

[little swift]

mashing it will only cast snap punch repeatedly

[jade quartz]

and don't attempt such things

[naive ridge]

1 will go through 2 will fail

and it wont queue your abilities

its a terrible idea

[kindred light]

I dont want it to queue though

[jade quartz]

there will be significant delay and you will huhrt your potential a lot

and it won't work consistently.

[jade quartz]

yes you do

you really, really do

lack of queue creates a delay that adds up significantly over time

!faq macrogcd

[zinc orbit]

Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

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

Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA

[jade quartz]

that's without getting into the other problems with the macro

the added inherent delay due to having multiple skills

and just the unreliability of it.

[kindred light]

GCD skills are those that can be cast instantly any time?

[jade quartz]

I really can't emphasise enough how much you should delete that macro.

[kindred light]

or the 2.X sec skills?

[jade quartz]

It is not viable.

GCD = global cooldown

the 2.x second skills

[sacred thicket]

if i were to unsync trials for blue mage spells, what are the chances i still get the spells? (i do know sync is 100%)

[jade quartz]

Just

[leaden ginkgo]

Macros really aren't used like that in this game, only exception I can think of are ground targeted AoEs like DRK to prevent having to click again to use it.

[jade quartz]

don't try to make macros work.

There are specific uses for macros in combat

[kindred light]

sheesh ok

[jade quartz]

if it's not one of those, just don't

[kindred light]

that's unfortunate

[little swift]

trying to do decimal waits won't work either because they just round to the nearest whole number

[north viper]

is there any moggle armor except the one on mog station?

[jade quartz]

Macros are a deliberately lacking system to prevent people automating combat.

[kindred light]

I dont understand how this macro prevents queuing though

[jade quartz]

Macros don't queue

that's just how they are

[kindred light]

what is queueing?

[jade quartz]

Being able to press a button within the last ~0.5seconds of your global cooldown

and have it register

[leaden ginkgo]

Consider it a "this is just how the game works" moment =P

[jade quartz]

and automatically go off as soon as it is possible

With macros this does not happen

[ivory pewter]

hey for the endgame raids like eden umbra is there a video i can watch that only has a tank guide on what to do

[jade quartz]

so you must hammer the skill, and there will always be a delay for the GCD finishing + button press registering (ping relevant)

which adds up to significant loss over time

[kindred light]

is that queueing the same reason I can run into an aoe half a second before it lands?

[jade quartz]

no

unrelated

[little swift]

those two different things thats queuing and snapshotting

[leaden ginkgo]

General practice for that is to immediately get out of orange AoEs

[jade quartz]

Queueing = the action you press is being put onto a "queue"

It's being queued up to automatically execute as soon as it's able.

[little swift]

the general practice is to get out as late as you can before the aoe snaps where your location is to calculate damage

especially for melees

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh, I usually play with like 200ping so nvm

[kindred light]

okay im going to play around with this and come back

thanks for the info

[little swift]

if you're going to use macros don't use it to automate your rotation or reduce button bloat

neither of those are advised or recommended

[leaden ginkgo]

hey, can I force the game to run a higher resolution in borderless? It seems to automatically reduce it when I take it to borderless

[zenith halo]

How close im I to the lvl 60 tombstone gear?

I dont wanna check cuz i dont want spoilers lol

just need to know how much is left cuz im mad weak lol

[jade quartz]

About 10-15 quests

what is the meaning of repeatable turnin leve?

whats the best way for 60-70? 70 i can bozja right?

[dapper oyster]

71 for bozja

[forest siren]

ah kk

[hearty pilot]

What exactly is a mentor? and how do i meet one?

[boreal storm]

Hoh for 61-70, or daily+dungeon spam

[forest siren]

ruby sea, yeah?

[jovial quarry]

A repeatable leve means you can turn in the same item up to three times for a single levequest. At times they are incredibly efficient.

[jade quartz]

A player who has played a long time and met the requirements to be considered a mentor and join Novice Network. they also have a crown icon which they may or may not choose to use

Note mentors ingame don't have a huge barrier to entry so the role as a whole doesn't have a great reputation

[spare moth]

can i use the wind wailer sentrys to farm?

[jade quartz]

Just because someone's a mentor doesn't necessarily mean they're correct about stuff.

[dapper oyster]

ah i thought they will only use 1 allowance, ok thanks 😄

[jade quartz]

To talk to mentors and fellow new players in a server wide chat you can use novice network, join by going to a main city and asking around in /say for an invite to novice network

Mentors can invite you.

[hearty pilot]

thank you 🙂 what is the novice network?

[jade quartz]

Server wide chat channel for new players and mentors

[hearty pilot]

oh, you just said that while i typed 😛 thanks!

[jade quartz]

just social chat a lot of the time

[hearty pilot]

Are there more server wide channels? i feel kinda alone when i play at certain times.

[jade quartz]

That's it

but you can join a free company (provided you're not on the free trial)

i.e. a player guild

and they have a chat channel

[hearty pilot]

i bought the complete edition ^^ is there a free company finder? or what is the etiquette on finding one?

sorry if im bombarding you with questions here

where can i find quick gruop finder

[jade quartz]

Party Finder ingame

[coarse flame]

not really quick

just need to do it for completion, hence why I ask in discord

[hearty pilot]

Oh cool! thank you so much Lyon 🙂

[jade quartz]

Probably quicker than any out of game method.

We have #603040697884475393 but tbh just party finder.

[coarse flame]

mostly its FC recruitment, just need an unsycn completion to power through quests :/

[spare moth]

how do you do PotD?

[stable knot]

Good day, can anyone help me with Lord of Verminion? I've been stuck with Gilgamesh and Enkidu for a while now. Thanks in advance!

[spare moth]

do i need to unlock it on my main character first?

[stable knot]

you can unlock it on level 20ish in gridania

[boreal storm]

Lvl 17 quest

[spare moth]

i started in the other area 😩

[naive ridge]

what do you need help with?

[boreal storm]

You go to all the cities dude

[jade quartz]

https://ffxiverminion.com/stage19-battle-on-the-bitty-bridge I used this website's guides to complete all the Verminion challenges

[stable knot]

cant win it, what should I do...

[stable knot]

alright thank you!

[stable knot]

To unlock palace of the death, you must first finish your main scenario quest Into a copper hell, then you can go to gridania and take the quest House that death built to unlock palace of the death

[coarse flame]

can you still get xp when doing undersized dungeon?

[green grail]

no

[coarse flame]

ok

ty

[spare moth]

is it a main quest?

[stable knot]

no but to unlock features you have to proceed in mainquest

[fathom wasp]

Why does Grit turn itself off? ( Over 10 times the last run )

[jade quartz]

All buffs and stances turn off when you are level synced down.

It does not happen in any other situation.

Just gotta remember to turn it back on when starting a dungeon in which you are synced

[tiny atlas]

idk if this is normal but I have been trying to queue into the praetorium scenario to finish my quest for about an hour, what should I do?

[jade quartz]

If it happened 10 times during a run then you must have been pressing it by accident.

[viral mantle]

Hello, if someone here has watched the endwalker trailer, do we know who is the person sitting in the throne with the the thing on his head? I am very curious .

The guy with the big scythe.

[jade quartz]

Yes it's a major character who you will meet in Stormblood.

[viral mantle]

Oh gotcha, so not a new character .

[jade quartz]

nope

[viral mantle]

Starting heavensward tomorrow, pretty excited, just finished the crystal tower series .

[vital ruin]

@obsidian patio The site is not supposed to deduct money from my card while doing test transection but I've lost a lot of money while doing these test transections
how do i contact support regarding this issue

[autumn hedge]

I'm trying to find a specific item but I'm having trouble. I saw someone wearing "Spring Bottoms" and they looked like cuffed shorts. When I look up Spring Bottoms, they're pants.

[barren granite]

is there a way to tell who is queued for the group ?

[green grail]

they look different for males and females

[outer mural]

they're shorts for female, long pants for male

i wish we got both for both sides

[stable knot]

praetorium has long cut scenes, I'm not sure how it works on your server but I usually queue for main scenario after working hours.

[alpine shadow]

those transactions shouldn't get charged, so you get them back within the week or so, depending on your bank

as you can maybe see that the transaction would be on "pending"

[autumn hedge]

Oooh alright.

[vital ruin]

where do i see this pending status

[alpine shadow]

in your bank?

it shows up on my bank when the transaction is pending or not

[vital ruin]

so whatever cash they took I'll get it back within a week?

[alpine shadow]

should

[vital ruin]

the money doesn't return once its gone its gone

[spiral inlet]

we don't need

aether oil

anymore right

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Aether_Oil

[hot eagle]

for the hw relic? you need 5 for each you do

[spiral inlet]

is that

what its used for?

[alpine shadow]

a pending transaction is never removed from your account, but is deducted from your total balance

[jade quartz]

that's its one use yes

[hot eagle]

yeah its for the hw relics

[outer mural]

it's used for one of the final steps as a turn-in

[spiral inlet]

oh ok

[outer mural]

as stated earlier you will indeed need 5

[vital ruin]

this time i did the transection via my friends card where should he check this pending status @alpine shadow

[alpine shadow]

with his bank? where he got his card from.

Hi everybody. I am going crazy trying to start my adventure in FF. First i downloaded the collector edition for Shadowbringer from square enix before realizing that's the old expantion and now I was looking for Endwalker on steam but I am wondering if i can play before the expansions launches, any kind soul would like to give an hand?

[warm snow]

Reset is the exact same time worldwide

[warm snow]

!faq buy

[zinc orbit]

How to buy the game

Click here for NA

Click here for EU

Click here for JP

Image by /u/Alimantado

[river wagon]

You need to purchase the game aside from the expansions

[tranquil spear]

so like the starter edition?

[warm snow]

Sounds like you're missing the base game. Also you have to either buy from se or buy from steam

They're separate from one another

[leaden ginkgo]

hey im really weak at level 10 and so is there a better gear than buying from vendors i can get

[warm snow]

Steam is its own version

[green grail]

you need starter edition + shadowbringers if you want to play everything now, complete edition includes both

[leaden ginkgo]

i cant solo fates as blm

[warm snow]

Do your job quests, everyone is weak at level 10

[tranquil spear]

I already purchased the Complete edition from SE, got an activation code which does not work

[river wagon]

Yeah I would recommend for you to get the starter edition from steam makes everything way easier when it comes to actually buying the game

Which is actually the hardest part

[warm snow]

You said you bought collectors not complete

[naive ridge]

only if you are taking all enemies at once, if you take them one or two at a time it should be okay

[leaden ginkgo]

big boss fate

[boreal storm]

Collectors and complete are very different

[naive ridge]

big boss fates cant be done solo

[tranquil spear]

collector's edition was 20 euro, thought it would have been complete damned

[naive ridge]

or at least it takes forever

[leaden ginkgo]

[river wagon]

Probably got the activation code for the expansion and not the base game

[boreal storm]

Not even as a blu mage

[tranquil spear]

how can i completement the collector's?

[warm snow]

If lv10 blm it's probably the boss fate outside the city in Central than

You won't have a full set of gear that actually gives stats for a bit so just ignore fates for a while and focus msq

[leaden ginkgo]

its alt job

[warm snow]

You'll need to buy the base game, then starter edition

[tranquil spear]

damn me

[warm snow]

Then do your hunting log and job quests to get to dungeons fast then use those

[leaden ginkgo]

ok ty

[warm snow]

Fates alone are bad exp

[vital ruin]

@alpine shadow he said his app shows the test transections as purchase transections and he never got any pending status so money never came back to him, whenever i do any sort of transections these so called test transections always cut money from his card
can i contact support regarding this

[warm snow]

You can

They'll probably tell you the same thinng

[jade quartz]

I'd ask your bank honestly

[maiden cypress]

So I asked earlier but didn't get the answer to the second half of my question.

My SE account page does not show I have ordered Endwalker at all.
On my Mog station it says I have Endwalker Early Access.
Not sure why my SE account page and my Mog station page is not showing the same thing.

[alpine shadow]

you can't use the shadowbringers preorder code

[vital ruin]

i told him to contact bank but I'm pretty sure bank will tell him there was a purchase transections
nevee heard of these ao called pending transaction

[warm snow]

You can't register Endwalker yet

At all

[hot eagle]

you get another key later, only shows endwalker preorder for now till it releases

[warm snow]

Until during Endwalker early access to be specific

[alpine shadow]

wait, if you ordered endwalker, and it does not show up on your ordered list, then you have probably ordered it as a guest.

[maiden cypress]

I thought when I bought Endwalker it gave me a code to get the preorder items

[warm snow]

It did

And you used it

That's why you have early access registered

Pre order gives early access

[alpine shadow]

they are asking specifically why it does not show up on their square enix store order list

[jade quartz]

Such transactions are common practice when dealing with online billing systems

But also if your bank account doesn't show such things as pending transactions, then it may just be an oddity with your bank's online display or something

They commonly occur when you purchase from stalls or vending machines and stuff

[tranquil spear]

this +

should be enough to start right?

[alpine shadow]

no, complete editon cannot be combined with expansion

[maiden cypress]

I know preorder gives me early access, but I thought I logged into my SE account when I preordered Endwalker

[alpine shadow]

eu or na?

[tranquil spear]

EU, i bought this by mistake

[warm snow]

Did you buy the EU version?

[tranquil spear]

for 20

[alpine shadow]

ah

[warm snow]

From the EU site?

[alpine shadow]

then you need to buy the starter edition

not complete edition

@tranquil spear https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_EU/product/445659

[tranquil spear]

it's no longer available?

[alpine shadow]

updated link

wait

[severe brook]

do you get more reputation if you hand in HQ items for beast tribe

[alpine shadow]

this is the digital one

[tranquil spear]

thanks a lot i was going crazy

[alpine shadow]

since you already bought shadowbringers, starter edition is the last/first thing you need

[boreal storm]

No, HQ items are required after rank 3(?) or so

[severe brook]

thnx

[little swift]

No. Only turn in hq if it asks

[autumn hedge]

I'm trying to get this item, but I can't seem to find the npc I need to talk to at the wolf's den https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/61fa0d1724b

[unique ivy]

is this place cool with help on Gshade stuff? dunno what the general consensus on how legit it is here.

[runic cairn]

it's cool with it but you might have more luck in the gposers discord

[autumn hedge]

I also don't know what category to look under

[unique ivy]

oh yeah, they have a discord, of course

cheers

Thank you! 😄

[jagged igloo]

Does anyone know when this sale ends? I was thinking of reaching free trial cap first but idk

[runic cairn]

you can buy the game but not activate the key until you're ready to move on from the trial

[jagged igloo]

Oh sweet I’ll do that then

[warm snow]

[wooden lagoon]

question about gathering.... what is the best lv 60 crafted set for gathering that can be made?

last i played it was ironworks but dont know if something newer was released

[thorny urchin]

about the duty finder, can i play it with a friend as long as we dont share the same party role? also do we have to activate both the duty finder or only one of us is enough?

[naive ridge]

If you can get scrips, the easiest is the highest ilvl scrip gear for lvl 60

you can get easy yellow scrips from weekly custom deliveries

[warm snow]

You can queue for duty finder as a premade party yes

[thorny urchin]

ok. tnx

[stray dawn]

whats the best way to level from 70~80?

[warm snow]

Bozja

[wooden lagoon]

sadly i am currently in mostly lv 30ish gear or below and lv 59 on my gatherer, so script is out of the question until i get some better gear @naive ridge

[stray dawn]

whats bozja? I dont think Ive ever done it

[wooden lagoon]

which is why i was considering just crafting a good set

[eternal pawn]

So I just got red mage any tips on rotation? Or hotbar set up? I’m lvl 50

[naive ridge]

err you can get some vendor gear i guess?

are you trying to gear for 60

or for 59?

[wooden lagoon]

where would a vender for that range be? and yeah lv 60ish is what im shooting for (up to) as i can do a beast tribe quest or 2 to be lv 60 if needed @naive ridge

[naive ridge]

mmmm

[warm snow]

You'll get 51-57 ish gear from job quests

Iirc

[warm snow]

Shadowbringers relic side content

[nocturne wyvern]

Also the odd numbered dungeons have this thing where after you kill the final boss you’re guaranteed a piece of gear from the dungeon set that you don’t have.

[stray dawn]

hm, do I need to do a side mission to gain access like eureka?>

[warm snow]

Yes

[nocturne wyvern]

Run them a few times and you’ll have a gear set.

[warm snow]

Also it's locked behind the sb alliance raid series

[kindred light]

Is it discouraged to use macros like these for res? (Swiftcast + Raise)

[warm snow]

Yes

[stray dawn]

I see, I'll wiki for info on bojza

[nocturne wyvern]

It’s pretty normal.

Delta.

[naive ridge]

i'd keep switft and rez seperate

[warm snow]

Using swift and rez in the same macro is discouraged

[naive ridge]

you'll also use swift for other things

[warm snow]

A message of I'm resting x is good to have

[nocturne wyvern]

I wouldn’t but a lot of healers do. :x

[kindred light]

I still have swift on a separate key for use with other things but I have honestly never needed it on a scholar other than for Res

[naive ridge]

azim steppe sells a basic 60 set

you can also check your MBs to see how affordable they are

but the simplest is still to get vendor gear for that level and work on weekly custom deliveries you'll get a new set in a few weeks

[wooden lagoon]

tyvm @naive ridge appreciate you finding that for me

[naive ridge]

you can see which is more expensive for you

[tranquil spear]

i hope the game is more user friendly then the purchase of it

maybe i'll be able to try it eventually

[pale nimbus]

What does “Max 2” in a tooltip like this mean?: “Spell Speed +8% (Max 2).”

[naive ridge]

its an unfortunate side effect of being a company based in japan

[runic cairn]

it means that's the maximum value it can add to that stat

[naive ridge]

their webdev is so bad that the SE store is a masterpiece by their standards

[pale nimbus]

Thank you!

[kindred light]

how do you guys quickly switch between single target and AOE skills?

[naive ridge]

in what way?

[kindred light]

like, key layout

[naive ridge]

oh

i use, 123,ctrl +123, alt +123. zxcvb

something like that

my aoes are all on one line

like on nin

my aoes are on alt 123

[tight mango]

I have seen some adverts in chat and group finder for paid services like gil and items for $.
Those against TOS? Should I report them?

[naive ridge]

you can

if its for real world money

but if its like selling services for gil

i dont think SE does anything about that

[tight mango]

It's for real money

[naive ridge]

then report it

[pine onyx]

Do I have to get crafting custom deliveries materials from NPCs?

[naive ridge]

yes

[pine onyx]

ty

[tight mango]

Yup 50$ for ultima weapons advertised

[runic cairn]

report em

[pine onyx]

Do you get more rewards from HQ items in deliveries?

[naive ridge]

yes

[runic cairn]

yes

[tight mango]

Is there a guide how to identify ads in party finder?
Are ads the ones with things like "instant", discord names, saying things like instant e95-e125

[spring lintel]

Do you think that yoshi p uses ACT????

[green grail]

no

[alpine shadow]

usually, i think ad pf usually do is use "too high 9000" min ilvl to join, or lack of full party, etc etc.

[naive ridge]

does he need to?

[spring lintel]

Just wondering

[tight mango]

Like item level 999?

[naive ridge]

he can order some low level employee to print his fight data from the server itself

[tight mango]

Is 999 too high?

[alpine shadow]

yes

[tight mango]

For a bloody duty roullete

[alpine shadow]

... yes

[tight mango]

Thanks

Blocking time

[barren granite]

im sure they have in house parsers

[spring lintel]

How much does iLVL matter in the current expansion (shadowbringers currently)? I’m almost at heavensward and I have to say that besides overworld mobs the ilvl doesn’t matter much, No?

[inland fox]

y do my gloves and earrings have 'red marks' next to them in my glam dresser? ive assigned them to a glam plate but when i activate it they don't show on my charactre, rest of the plate works fine

[naive ridge]

it matters for dungeons and trials/ hard content

[green grail]

it matters in content

[naive ridge]

not so much for solo fighting in the overworld

[covert marlin]

how are triple triad cards appearing in my inventory, I didn't play any triple triad matches for it to show up

[alpine shadow]

it means lvl or class incompatible

[green grail]

if you do a heavensward dungeon with shitty ilvl 90 ARR gear then you're kinda griefing

[covert marlin]

do they drop from mob?

[naive ridge]

not able to wear due to class or level

[inland fox]

ahhhh ok ty

[naive ridge]

from dungeons, trials

quests

[gusty island]

what level would you guys recommend to level each tank to to get a decent idea of how they play?
my only experience is on WAR so far (lv 80) and GNB seems to give me a decent toolkit at 60 (although idk if it changes significantly later on)

[proud willow]

TT cards can drop directly into inventory at the end of a dungeon/trial

[naive ridge]

50 for very basic playstyle

60-70 they start to differentiate

and 80 you get all your goodies

[near geyser]

I know there is a "best way to level" guide in here, I just have forgot the command

[low lynx]

does anyone know what these are for?

[covert marlin]

ohh, thanks!

So 1-60 leves aren't really a thing worth oding now huh?

[naive ridge]

nah

you can use them to level your crafting/gathering they're good for that

but not worth it for combat jobs

[pale nimbus]

When you cannot bring up Item Comparison, like when inspecting a piece of gear in a Quest panel, is there some way, maybe with a shortcut, to compare it with your equipped gear?

[naive ridge]

pre max level it doesnt really matter, just equip the highest ilvl for your class

[sturdy brook]

How do I get here? I can't complete the flying quest because the final wind thing is there

[pale nimbus]

Ok. But there’s no way to do a comparison later on either?

[naive ridge]

you wont be getting your endgame gear from quests

it's through a tome vendor or Market board so you can always compare

[pale nimbus]

Ah alright. Thanks.

[naive ridge]

for levelling

1-49 its always dungeon gear is best

50-55/60-65/70-75 will be your poetics gear

the rest is dungeon gear and supplement with HQ white quest reward gear as needed

[pale nimbus]

Noted. Thank you.

[nocturne wyvern]

They’re for FC airships.

You send them out to gather various exclusive items and it’s an entire progression system as well that’s a bit too long to explain here.

[ornate crystal]

So, I'm almost done with Heavensward and I've been skipping every cutscene and bit of dialogue so far. I would really like to start following the story, but at this point I'm so lost and have no clue what's happening. So, is there any way I can get myself caught up with everything that I skipped without replaying it all again?

[naive ridge]

it should be in your menus

[tawdry onyx]

Hello, so i was googling how to increase my mount speed[riding maps], it said my grand company sells them, but i don't see anything like that at my grand company. Where do i go? i want to buy mount speed increase for some shadowbringer areas

[naive ridge]

[System Menu] -> [Support Desk] -> [Contact Us]

[naive ridge]

for which region

[nocturne wyvern]

In the inn room there is a journal thing. You can read that to watch old cutscenes and look at your completed quests as well.

[naive ridge]

oh shadowbringers 1 sec

[tawdry onyx]

my grand company is the yellow guys, i want to get mount increase for Khoulusia and the 6th one

[naive ridge]

ShB should be from the bicolor gemstone vendors

in each area

[ornate crystal]

Alright thank you

[oak ice]

The mount speed in ShB zones is from getting level 2 gem vendor, yeah

[naive ridge]

its 70 gemstones

per map

[gritty oracle]

Also mind that riding speed doesn't affect fly speed

[ornate crystal]

huh?

[naive ridge]

70 bi color gemstones

[tawdry onyx]

I'm mainly looking to do it while i wait for a pop, i can't get the currents for them 2 regions yet

[naive ridge]

you get them from cleaing fates

[ornate crystal]

to watch the old cutscenes?

[oak ice]

Right horse, wrong barn

[tawdry onyx]

how many would i get for 1 fate

[naive ridge]

i think its

12?

i dont remember exactly

[nocturne wyvern]

He replied to the wrong one.

[ornate crystal]

Yeah I figured that out a bit too late

[kindred isle]

is it even necessary to meet all 3 requirements of the squad mission

i looked online and some said 2/3 is enough

[spice kraken]

which us server should i play in?

[kindred isle]

and that it is very hard to reach all 3

[obsidian patio]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)
  ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

[obsidian patio]

Flagged missions need all 3 to be met.

with 2 met it's only like 1% chance of success

but meeting all 3 makes it 100%

[kindred isle]

but can i gamble on some of the missions to save time

[spice kraken]

can i play with people from different data centers?

[obsidian patio]

not yet.

[kindred isle]

like i am now lv 8 for all squadrons, but there is a 15 quest, and i meet 2 of the requirments

[obsidian patio]

cross-datacenter visiting is planned to be added sometime in September/october

[spice kraken]

im planning on buying the game, should i buy shadowbringers now?

[kindred isle]

play the trial first

[spice kraken]

im playing it

[naive ridge]

you're looking for the complete edition if you want to buy

its ARR all the way to shadow bringers

[spice kraken]

seeing a concert on top of the bridge conviced me to buy the game lol

coolest thing ive seen on a mmo

[spice kraken]

arr?

[kindred isle]

a realm reborn

[nocturne wyvern]

No.

[naive ridge]

A realm reborn 2.0

[nocturne wyvern]

I don’t know what region you are but you’ll probably have better luck calling their customer service line.

[naive ridge]

we wouldnt know

[spice kraken]

do i need to buy shadowbringers to play the 2 other xpacs?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yes.

And also to level past 60.

If you keep going at 60 you’re leaving a lot of exp on the table.

[warm snow]

Heavensward no, stormblood yes, Endwalker kinda

[rancid crypt]

ye but he could "Only" buy Endwalker

to not have to buy the other 2

[spice kraken]

would that unlock shadowbringers too?

[naive ridge]

but you cant play the expansions until endwalker launch

[warm snow]

@spice kraken all story is linear so you need to play all stormblood to play shadowbringers etc

[naive ridge]

if you buy the endwalker version

[rancid crypt]

it unlocks

[warm snow]

If you buy Endwalker now, you don't get it and the other expansions until Endwalker releases

[rancid crypt]

you got a point @naive ridge

[spice kraken]

yikes

i really wanna play as dark knight

[naive ridge]

you can play that in the free trial

[warm snow]

You can, heavensward is free

[spice kraken]

:O

[warm snow]

Since 5.3

[naive ridge]

it unlocks at lvl 50 when you reach the expansion

[warm snow]

Over a year ago

!faq hwjobs

[zinc orbit]

Heavensward Jobs and How to Unlock Them

Heavensward Expansion Jobs: Dark Knight (DRK, Tank), Astrologian (AST, Healer), and Machinist (MCH, Ranged DPS). These jobs start at level 30 and require the completion of the level 50 main scenario quest "Before the Dawn".
Since the 5.3 update DRK, AST, and MCH are now included in the free trial/Starter edition of the game, though the unlock requirements are still the same.

Job Unlock Locations:
Dark Knight - Ishgardian Citizen at The Pillars (13,9), quest name is "Our End".
Astrologian - Jannequinard at The Pillars (15,10), quest name is "Stairway to the Heavens".
Machinist - Stephanivien at Foundation (8,10), quest name is "Savior of Skysteel".

[naive ridge]

free trial is free until lvl 60 and the end of Heavensward expansion

[spice kraken]

so, would you guys recommend me to only buy the game (and shadowbringers) when I reach close to 60?

[naive ridge]

you can play the free trial now until 60 and buy

[storm sapphire]

You’d save some money

[naive ridge]

there is a sale going on now i believe

[spice kraken]

not on my country

[naive ridge]

you can also buy and hold on to the code until you're finished with the trial

[warm snow]

You'll need to play all stormblood and shadowbringers to play Endwalker so if you're on trial, I'd say buy the complete edition while it's on sale now. Then redeem the code when you're done the trial

[spice kraken]

well, my jaw dropped when i saw the opening cinematic

wrong reply

[spice kraken]

will i be able to become a dark knight at level 30 or 50?

[naive ridge]

it unlocks at lvl 50

but starts at lvl 30 DRK

[storm sapphire]

You need to get to heavensward

[spice kraken]

oh, I dont know anything about the game yet. mb

[naive ridge]

np

[spice kraken]

gotcha, thanks!

[late fog]

can this single purchase be used for all my classes? wondering about the "one use" part got 8 classes I wanna use the exp buff on.

[naive ridge]

no

if its account wide it will say so

[thorn thicket]

Which of the 8 ShB trials is typically said to be the roughest/most annoying to farm?

[late fog]

bummer, k ty

[storm sapphire]

Wait

You mean your classes as in: drk/war/ast/whm etc?

[late fog]

yes

[naive ridge]

oh then yes

[storm sapphire]

It is an all class item I believe

[nocturne wyvern]

Hades is pretty tedious but mitigated by the higher item level.

[storm sapphire]

But female only

[obsidian patio]

Ruby/Emerald are pretty annoying due to the forced cinematic and being 2-parter fights

[late fog]

ah ok sweet, thanks

[spice kraken]

which starting job would you guys recommend for a future drk (and new player)?

[thorn thicket]

What about Memoria Misera?

[naive ridge]

hades also has the cutscene

[nocturne wyvern]

Probably marauder.

[obsidian patio]

You skip the most annoying phase with good damage nowadays

[nocturne wyvern]

It’s the closest to drk.

[obsidian patio]

that being the rotating cleaves that target everyone

[spice kraken]

is it a tank or dps?

[nocturne wyvern]

And it will get you used to tanking that way.

[obsidian patio]

Marauder is a tank

[naive ridge]

DRK is a tank

[nocturne wyvern]

Drk is a tank, if you want to play drk you will be tanking.

This isn’t wow where you can alternatively go dps.

[spice kraken]

is tanking boring in this game, as in you deal no damage?

[thorn thicket]

Everything deals damage.

Healers have to deal damage

[obsidian patio]

Tanks do pretty respectable damage

[nocturne wyvern]

To get in to end game and meta a bit more, this game heavily favors a dps meta. Every job is encouraged to do as much dps as possible.

[naive ridge]

you do less damage than a dps but significant enough for it to matter if your dps is bad

[obsidian patio]

like 50-60% of a DPS, maybe more

[spice kraken]

hmmm, sounds good

[obsidian patio]

There's been videos of high-end players clearing endgame content as full parties of tanks

[nocturne wyvern]

Just think of drk as a dps that holds the monster and does less damage. 😄

[storm sapphire]

Some vids of tanks soloing same-level content

[obsidian patio]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gi05HqdMSs

[nocturne wyvern]

I’m a paladin, I solo dungeon bosses a lot.

[spice kraken]

i came from wow and i liked tanking there because i could deal some decent damage too

[obsidian patio]

This is one of the hardest instances in the entire game, and a group has done it with all tanks

[spice kraken]

can a tank do anything on pvp?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yes.

[obsidian patio]

Tanks act as a distractor and have a decent amount of CC to annoy others

[leaden ginkgo]

Best thing to do when coming from WoW, is to toss what you know from WoW away for the most part

[nocturne wyvern]

I usually pvp as drk, I can beat any dps 1v1 and sometimes 2v1.

[obsidian patio]

and are pretty beefy to take the attention

[nocturne wyvern]

Only thing I can’t beat 1v1 in pvp as a drk is a paladin and healers.

[naive yew]

Cos Paladins are the MC

[naive ridge]

tanks are strong in pvp because they are beefy

[nocturne wyvern]

No. Because of clemency. XD

[naive ridge]

they wont be bursted down like most others

[nocturne wyvern]

I can’t wear out their mp fast enough.

[naive ridge]

its kind of a rock papers scissors

tanks > Dps > healer > tanks

[naive yew]

But when the tank is also a healer

[spice kraken]

so healers beat tanks?

or they just dont die?

[naive ridge]

because tanks have less burst, healers can outheal them

dps can burst healers

and tanks can withstand burst

[nocturne wyvern]

1v1 they just don’t die.

Like old resto druids.

[spice kraken]

this conviced me lol

[nocturne wyvern]

Killing a healer takes some coordination. Especially if there are more than one.

[naive yew]

When you're healers die to mechanics

who u going call

[naive ridge]

or be a warrior and chain people to you and fell cleave 🙂

[naive yew]

the Paladin

when you wanna do a dungon though ur praying the healers are awake

[spice kraken]

swords > axes

[thorn thicket]

Heads up though, small scale pvp dies in like 3-5 days

[naive ridge]

Fell cleave > All

[spice kraken]

i have no idea what that means

[thorn thicket]

And unless there’s some community event going on 1v1 duels most likely won’t be happening either

[obsidian patio]

?

[nocturne wyvern]

This isn’t a pvp focused game. Ffxiv is heavily PVE focused.

So there isn’t a huge community or super active scene.

[thorn thicket]

Feast, the 4v4 mode usually dies off in participation within 2-3 weeks

There’s barely a scene at all

[spice kraken]

i like both so i dont see any problem with that

[thorn thicket]

There’s also no decay

[nocturne wyvern]

The 4v4 is the equivalent of ranked WoW arena

[sturdy brook]

Does Khloe shop reset weekly or is it always same rewards? I'm talking about items for exange

[naive yew]

normally fc will just do pvp events

[thorn thicket]

So you get your placement, and ignore it for the rest of the season

[deft monolith]

Hey, sorry to interrupt, but I need a bit of help. I'm up to the main quest uest "Good Intentions" given by Minfilia, but I have to unlock it with hard trials, (which I haven't unlocked). I read somewhere to unlock the hard trails, I first gotta do a "Recurring Problem" also given from Minfilia, but she ain't giving that quest anymore. Just asking to see what I can do. Thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

PvP is more a side game really. I've really only done it for glams and the like, or because I'm bored

[sturdy brook]

I see a Ixion mount here, will I'll always be able to get it from her?

[thorn thicket]

The actual shop stays the same

[nocturne wyvern]

The tokens for ixion drop from a world boss fate.

[sturdy brook]

Good. Thanks

[sturdy brook]

What of Ixion Clarion?

[nocturne wyvern]

In the room near her should be the side quest to do the hard trials from the other scions.

[deft monolith]

They aren't offering any quests

[nocturne wyvern]

Killing ixion drops tokens. You turn in the tokens for the mount.

[sturdy brook]

Yes, but it also in her shop for a gold Certificates

[spice kraken]

im probably not gonna be doing much pvp anyways, i just did a ping test with the server and it came back 195~

[thorn thicket]

You’re not going to get gold certificates from khloe

[nocturne wyvern]

Recurring should be given by urianger.

[waxen harbor]

is there a way to search for free company in game?

[nocturne wyvern]

Can you go to your journal's completed quests and click on the buttons until it has a dropdown menu that shows "Chronicles of a New Era - Primals" and take a screenshot of that?

should be in one of the first 5 quest categories

[deft monolith]

Ok, gimme a sec

[obsidian patio]

yep open it up and take a screenshot of the quests in it if any are in there

[thorn thicket]

Let’s do some quick math: there’s something like what, 12 possible Wonderous Tales configurations for 3 lines?

[obsidian patio]

!faq wondroustails

[zinc orbit]

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

[deft monolith]

Wait, i found the quest

Thanks guys

Sorry for wasting ur time

[obsidian patio]

24 possible combinations for 3-lines

[gritty oracle]

I can unlock/complete ARR hard/ex trials right after prae, right?

[obsidian patio]

For Ifrit/Garuda/Titan/Ultima, yes.

[dusty shard]

is arcanist a ealer or a dps ?

[naive ridge]

dps

[thorn thicket]

DPS

[naive ridge]

at 30 it can choose to go into scholar (heal) or summoner (dps)

[leaden ginkgo]

why is eu webchat unavailable anyone knows

?

[thorn thicket]

So we have what, like less than 1% chance of getting 3 lines?

[naive ridge]

not less than 1%

i think its like 3%?

[obsidian patio]

0.2% starting with a completely empty board for any 3-line combination

[naive ridge]

oh yeah

3% if you got 7/9 in the right spots

[obsidian patio]

so with all 24 possibilities, that's around 4.8%

[thorn thicket]

Okay, now to check the probability

[tropic flame]

sos is ass

[obsidian patio]

but math probably doesn't work like that

[naive ridge]

oh its 3% if you already have 2 lines in the right spots

[obsidian patio]

I think good groups nowadays skip Quintuplecast, which was a real annoying mechanic.

[naive ridge]

jesus

[tropic flame]

the higher the dps, the less suffering

[warm snow]

Current year

[thorn thicket]

In 3 years, of doing Wonderius Tails every week comes to 95% probability of hitting 3 lines

[naive ridge]

I've actually hit it once, I got the ornate caster gear in HW

[obsidian patio]

I've done WT basically every single week since it came out and only got one 3-line

I think it was like patch 3.4-3.5 and i grabbed the ornate healer chest of that tier and sold it for around 15m

[naive ridge]

by the time i got it, it was already near the end of the patch

so it wasnt worth much

I used it for glamour

i still have it

[thorn thicket]

4 years would be 98.5% probability

[obsidian patio]

If you've ever done gathering with less than 100% gathering chance, you know that percentages are meaningless 😛

[thorn thicket]

(Yes, a three percent increase over 52 weeks)

[storm sapphire]

Oh so this is including second chancing for a favorable outcome?

[rich bay]

It is 0.2% for an empty board and 8.3% maximum when you have 7 stickers. (With a diagonal and Vertical/Horizontal line.)

[spring lintel]

I haven’t even finished arr so please try to avoid spoiler #”

1. In the end walker cinematic (6 minutes long) who’s the narrator? (He says things like “past the far edge of fate”
2. What’s the last line he says” ... the coming of the end”?

[obsidian patio]

I don't know how you'd quantify/math out the chance of a shuffle becoming a viable 3-line set up compared to all other combinations

[thorn thicket]

Most people won’t bother with second chance because after a while you stop running into newbies

[leaden ginkgo]

what

[thorn thicket]

Probability equation: 1-(1-x)^n. x= chance in decimal, n= number of tries/instances

[naive ridge]

not really, i max out the reroll points just by doing daily trial + raid roulette only

[obsidian patio]

I'm 90% sure they're a character you never met yet

[rich bay]

It is always 8.3% when you have 2 lines with 7 stickers and one is diagonal.

So it is nice to aim for 2 lines with 7 stickers, but it is better to aim for any 3 line possibility. (2.5% to 8.3%)

[obsidian patio]

and yes the last line is that

[spring lintel]

I mean the first word, is it “calling”?

[obsidian patio]

coming of the end

[thorn thicket]

Its all spoiler stuff if your worreid about it

[spring lintel]

So it’s an actual character? Is this person important to the story?

[obsidian patio]

yes

[thorn thicket]

You don’t want to be spoiled, so there’s no reason to ask

[spring lintel]

You’re right I don’t but it’s like a teaser for me

The anticipation

[naive ridge]

its recommended to not watch any trailers at all

[thorn thicket]

Then do the story

[naive ridge]

if you dont want spoilers

[warm snow]

Everything going on in the world at the moment: that's why web chat isn't available

[junior walrus]

Are there any cool things you can get from the sightseeing log?

[naive ridge]

wtf is webchat

[warm snow]

A minion from the arr log

[obsidian patio]

a minion and 2 or 3 titles

[warm snow]

Otherwise achievements and bragging rights

[spring lintel]

Well I watched end walker before I started playing, main reason why I picked up the game actually. I don’t understand most of the things so I think I’m good, haven’t watched the rest of the cinematics

[modest drift]

yo guys! just reached lvl 80 with gatherer

[warm snow]

Especially if you fill the sb log

[obsidian patio]

!minion fledgling Apkallu

[modest drift]

[junior walrus]

What's the minion called?

[zinc orbit]

Fledgling Apkallu

While the hatchlings of other flightless cloudkin have been observed covered in a dull brown coat of down when they emerge from their eggs, apkallus enter the world covered in the same vivid green plumage they will bear for their entire lives.

[warm snow]

Yes, white scrip gear

[obsidian patio]

the green penguins

[junior walrus]

ooohh

[thorn thicket]

Access to getting a lot of paintings of the vistas as housing items

[modest drift]

eulmore?

[warm snow]

Because its probably armor you CAN'T use

[modest drift]

ups

XDD

[frail sleet]

but it clearly says drg on it?

[obsidian patio]

do you remember the name of the equipment?

[spring lintel]

https://youtu.be/3cKy5Qk0QMM what expansion does this boss happen in?

[naive ridge]

its old content

[leaden ginkgo]

if u mean covid

[obsidian patio]

Heavensward

[warm snow]

Post arr "armor" of fending and maiming are more separately distinct

[naive ridge]

Tanks and Drg used to share armor

[thorn thicket]

Heavensward

[warm snow]

Hw

[thorn thicket]

No

[leaden ginkgo]

chat was available some months ago lol

[spring lintel]

Yes

[frail sleet]

ohh

[naive ridge]

Yes

[frail sleet]

weird

[leaden ginkgo]

thats how i cancelled account

[spring lintel]

Actual banger

[thorn thicket]

When?

[leaden ginkgo]

trying to reactivate

[naive ridge]

in 2.0

[warm snow]

Arr

[thorn thicket]

At level 50 DRG still had maiming

[warm snow]

Well yes but actually no

[naive ridge]

during 1-50 you can look at the dungeon gear

[warm snow]

2.0 didn't have maiming gear

That came in later patches

[naive ridge]

yea maiming was after

[thorn thicket]

I’m pretty sure there’s a darklight maiming set

[naive ridge]

darklight is after 2.0

[warm snow]

That would be 2.1 or later

Not 2.0

[thorn thicket]

No it wasn’t

Darklight was the original tome set

In 2.0

[spring lintel]

I heard that more expansions are better in terms of story, but what about side content? In your opinion is, for example, shadowbringers content better than stormblood’s?

[rich bay]

Yeah, Darklight was the original Tomeset i70, there was a 2nd one in 2.0, the i90 AF1.5 tome.

The same i90 gear players get now from the L50 job quests.

[naive ridge]

regardless, here

Tanks ad Drg share armor in the early levels

but later on they made it so that only tanks could roll on this tank gear

as there is a seperate set for melee dps that drg should have been using

[dim marsh]

how do I make specific FATEs spawn? why do I have to wait 30 minutes to finish a beast tribe daily lol

[mystic perch]

Hey all, hit level 51 , a notification said i got flying mount. DO i still need to complete the flying mount quests?

[naive ridge]

some fates follow another fate but most are random

[mystic perch]

Whree does it show you can use flying mounts

[naive ridge]

they removed fate based beast tribe quests in futuure expansions

[warm snow]

There's a cap on fates in a zone so do some fates to make it spawn faster

[alpine shadow]

there is no flying mount quest, unless you want to unlock flying areas outside of ARR

[dim marsh]

lol

i've been killing fates nonstop

[naive ridge]

for me

[warm snow]

[zinc orbit]

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

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

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

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

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

[dim marsh]

still wont spawn

sad

[naive ridge]

well killing fates

will rotate them quicker

[mystic perch]

[naive ridge]

[dim marsh]

[dim marsh]

god i can't believe it's still in the game

[naive ridge]

cause fuck waiting for fates

[warm snow]

Then sacrifice your first born to rngesus on an altar of solidified virgin blood while the planets are in alignment

[dim marsh]

everything else takes like 5 mins zzz

anyway thank you all

[lyric rapids]

is there a pic or something that explains what each icon next to a player's name means?

[warm snow]

[naive ridge]

yeah in future expansions all the beast tribes take like 5 mins

[warm snow]

Arr is gonna arr

[naive ridge]

[frail sleet]

why is the crafting noise the super mario galaxy sound

[lyric rapids]

[fleet vale]

Hey the Kefka raid is in stormblood or shadowbringer expansion?

[warm snow]

Stromblood

[fleet vale]

[warm snow]

Stormblood is the fan service raids

You don't get raids til you finish the 4.0 msq

Same as every other expansion

[mystic perch]

so i ordered the early access Endwalker expansion, it come with a flying mount. When do i get the mount please?

[storm sapphire]

Hey what happened to the old diadem, did it get deleted?

[warm snow]

You don't

[mystic perch]

Hmm

[warm snow]

Mount is collectors edition

And you don't get that stuff til Endwalker release anyways

[mystic perch]

ok ty

[warm snow]

First diadem: yeah nuked from orbit

Afaik the diadem has been largely the same since season 2

[rich bay]

Current Diadem is the 3rd version and the final version of it.

[storm sapphire]

Anything from it I can’t get anymore or has it all been transported to new diadem?

[mystic perch]

got a sweet ear ring in the mail thoiugh

[warm snow]

You can get old grade 2-3 artisanal materials for the expert crafts

And grade 2-3 fish

[rich bay]

Yeah, the the special pre-order earring.

[warm snow]

Which can be desynthed into grade 2-3 materials

But grade 2-3 stuff won't give scrips

Or stamps

[forest siren]

So HoH only goes to floor 30 with matched party?

[warm snow]

Ye

You need a fixed party to go past 30

[forest siren]

Okay

For leveling do I just run 21-30 over and over?

[warm snow]

But said fixed party can start at floor 21

And yes

[forest siren]

Dope, ty

Hi guys I have a quick question, I'm a level 38 Gladiator now but I think I remember someone telling me I should change to a Paladin at level 30?

[forest siren]

It's your lvl 30 class quest that gets you your soul crystal to go to Paladin

[warm snow]

!faq job

[zinc orbit]

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.

[dense osprey]

Oh ok will that be at the Gladiator guild?

[warm snow]

It depends on the job

!faq msqtracker

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.
