[runic cairn]

glamour is the name of xiv's "transmog" system, so fashion in general gets referred to as glam

[proper lichen]

Cos I just got the pld Valor armor but now sword and shield.

No*

[runic cairn]

yeah no artifact armor and relic weapons are separate things

[proper lichen]

So is there a place to get good armor and shield for the Paladin?

[runic cairn]

at level 50 you just wanna save tomestones of poetics for ironworks gear

[proper lichen]

Sword and shield*

[proper lichen]

I don't even know what that is.

[runic cairn]

the gear or the tomestones?

[leaden ginkgo]

i just hit lvl 80 sam, and done all prev. job quests

but i can't seem to get the last one?

[proper lichen]

I don't know where to get the gear but I also don't know what exactly tomestones are.

[runic cairn]

tomestones are currency earned by completing dungeons at level cap. poetics are used to buy 50/60/70 gear. endgame has its own types

[proper lichen]

So, the primal dungeons on hard?

[runic cairn]

ironworks gear is i130, the best you're gonna get at level 50, and can be purchased in revenant's toll or at the sundry splendors merchants in the three cities

[coarse pond]

Hey gang. I have tried Turn 5 of Coils of Bahamut as a new player 3 times now. For 80 min each. We learned together on the first one, and I ended up leading and teaching the next two. Its always new players every time (including me). So we never manage to finish it. Is there a better way to group find other than the duty finder for Coils?

[ember valve]

do i choose evenstar or daystar for blm

[coarse pond]

Daystar is Healer I think.🧐

[runic cairn]

well, mostly for completing daily roulettes. if you've cleared praetorium, there should be quests to unlock a number of optional level 50 dungeons

[proper lichen]

It seems I need to finish are first before delving into tomestones.

Arr×

[runic cairn]

oh, yes, please do that before you even begin to worry about gearing up

[proper lichen]

Thanks.

[leaden ginkgo]

If I story skip ARR, I’ll have access to NG+ right

[lucid sequoia]

Anyone know how to make targeting on ps5 not bad?

The left and right d-pad default is terrible

[tawdry copper]

anyone here that has some time to spare?, i need to do satasha and queing as a dps takes forever

[lucid sequoia]

Spend half the fight cycling

[lone birch]

Best way to make gil using mining and or goldsmithing?

[dusty jungle]

Is there any way to get the levelling equipment that I dont pick? In a way that doesnt cost like 100k per set

[radiant wharf]

Question, My character was created on prefered world, it hasn't been 90 days yet but it says I can still transfer as the server changed to Standard like 2 weeks ago.
But if I do it, will it remove my Road to 70 buff or will it stay for the alotted time as normal

[leaden ginkgo]

Can Archer/Bard revive players like white mage?

[agile laurel]

No

[bold grail]

hey guys do I just buy this weeks FR items from the marketboard? or is there any NPC that sells it?>

[agile laurel]

The only two non-healer jobs with a raise are smn and rdm

[true valve]

The last job quest isn’t going to be blue. It’s a yellow side quest marker. Idk where exactly the SAM npc is. But quick google will show

Fashion Report for the week of 8/6/2021 (Week 184)

Resets in 2 days, 2 hours, 5 minutes, 51 seconds

[obsidian patio]

The vendors are listed on the guide

[bold grail]

ah okay haha thanks

[tawdry copper]

im so confused, been queing for sastasha..it says its ready but it puts me in a duty instead?

[leaden ginkgo]

i'm in the location, there's no quest anywhere

i completed the first sb quest, so that's not it

[obsidian patio]

If it was the gear not at level caps, AKA 50/60/70, then you have to craft it yourself, buy from a vendor, or from the marketboard.

[true valve]

Stormblood? The sam quest won’t unlock until you beat shb and the dps role quest

[leaden ginkgo]

ohh THAT'S what i'm missing

[tawdry copper]

anyone know why it does that?

[obsidian patio]

Can you take a screenshot? Not sure what might be the problem without visual aid.

[leaden ginkgo]

kinda dumb, but thank you for telling me <3

and yeah, i meant to say shb lmao

[tawdry copper]

?

[gentle loom]

whats the most fun lvl 10 class? looking for something with cleave and high mobility?

[obsidian patio]

You’re in queue, so you just need to keep waiting.

[tawdry copper]

i am, but it put me into another thing multiple times

some kind of duty

[obsidian patio]

Basically none? Level 10 toolkits are extremely barebones.

Only tanks have AoE that early.

[gentle loom]

😮

[obsidian patio]

If you want high mobility then go for Archer due to having no cast bars.

[gentle loom]

im a thaumaturge rn and not really liking having to stand still to attack. should i just push onwards or try other stuff out?

[obsidian patio]

They also get a fair amount of AoE with their toolkit

[dull valley]

@tawdry copper stasha is a duty

[dusty jungle]

BLM is like, the stiffest class in the game

[mortal locust]

I’m currently level 51 should I do all the raids and start doing min ilvl stuff or rush to 80?

[obsidian patio]

Though AoE isn’t really a deciding factor for most people since it really only applies for dungeons.

[tawdry copper]

it only lasted for around 1 min, we killed some monsters then went into a circle and killed more then it ended

[gentle loom]

i guess i chose poorly then lol

[obsidian patio]

Well you only have Sastasha selected so there’s no chance of getting another duty

[dull valley]

@tawdry copper are you talking about a FATE?

[obsidian patio]

But it sounded like you still had the first guildhests selected by mistake

[tawdry copper]

oh yeah fate, sorry started playing yesterday

[dull valley]

@tawdry copper fate is like an open world quest

[dusty jungle]

not really sure how you're gonna rush three expansions but I dont really see a reason you would, either

[mortal locust]

I’m more asking if I do the raids or level

Shouldn’t have said rish

[tawdry copper]

how far away from a mount am i?, currently level 18

[mortal locust]

Rush*

[obsidian patio]

Level 20 in the story

[dusty jungle]

The raids are fun as fuck. And it feels a bit better to do them now, as opposed to when you have 200 lv 80 skills and have to sync down

[dull valley]

@tawdry copper character level is never a good barometer for progress, always look at your MSQ level

[obsidian patio]

If you have plans to do raids at minimum item level for the experience you can do that at basically any level while doing the story

Due to it syncing your level and gear then

[lucid sequoia]

How do I get to limsa lominsa from thanalan

[obsidian patio]

Do the story

It’s story-locked

Limsa Lominsa can’t be reached by players starting in Gridania or Ul’dah until level 15 in the story

And vice versa

[tawdry copper]

finally found the dungeon

[lucid sequoia]

Bah

Then why would they say you can change class at lvl 10

[dull valley]

because you can

if youre from that zone

[obsidian patio]

Because you have other classes in your starting city

[lucid sequoia]

Humm

[mortal locust]

Ah okay thank you

[lucid sequoia]

5 more levels..

[dull valley]

just keep doing the MSQ, youre not "Wasting" any time or progress

[gentle loom]

wait fr?

[dull valley]

you can be every single job on one character

[gentle loom]

so if im starting in Ul'dah i cant try other classes until 15?

[obsidian patio]

Classes in Limsa until 15

You can reach Gridania from Ul’dah and vice versa by walking there

But you go through high level zones

[gentle loom]

oh

[true valve]

BLM master race

[gentle loom]

what classes are in gridania?

[lucid sequoia]

So I just cant reach limsa

[gentle loom]

lol why

[dull valley]

just do your MSQ

you will get to the level you need to be in like 45 minutes

[obsidian patio]

Archer/Lancer/Conjurer for combat, Leatherworker/Carpenter/Botanist for non-combat

[true valve]

Dragoon. White mage. And bard

[gentle loom]

yes cap'n

[true valve]

Cause explosions and big dick damage

[lucid sequoia]

What class would you recommend to be pre dancer?

[karmic kernel]

ARC/BRD or MCH.

[true valve]

Bard of machinist to share gear

[gentle loom]

i mean rn im just standing still pushing 1 button over and over to kill a single mob it sucks dick

[lucid sequoia]

If I switch to archer become bard do I start at lvl 1 again?

[gentle loom]

is it worth leveling archer if i dont want to be a bard?

[true valve]

Yep it’s like that at 80 as well it’s great. Only explosions

[gentle loom]

thanks but no thanks

lol

[dull valley]

@gentle loom no, because if you dont go archer at 30 youre gonna hamstring yourself

bard*

[wide nebula]

Should I be using the recommended button for gear?

[leaden ginkgo]

Nah. Get to lvl 10 and try something new

Conjurer is the white mage right guys?

Ye

Bard does let you play music though

[lucid sequoia]

What about arc

[true valve]

Yes

[gentle loom]

no conjurer is summoner?

[leaden ginkgo]

So it might be worth unlocking for that

[obsidian patio]

No, you keep your archer levels as a bard

[leaden ginkgo]

Conj goes into white mage

[obsidian patio]

They use the same experience bar

[true valve]

No arcanist is summoner

[leaden ginkgo]

Archer/Bard can cast all skills while moving right?

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[gentle loom]

does bard do dps?

[lucid sequoia]

I just wanna dance!

[leaden ginkgo]

All ranged dps can do this

[true valve]

All combat jobs do dps

[graceful sail]

Where do I get the level 60 weapon? Its not in the store where I get my IL 270 gear

[gentle loom]

i just want to move while attacking

[leaden ginkgo]

Yes, but not as much as the others. It’s more of a support attacker

[lucid sequoia]

The fastest way to dancing is?

[leaden ginkgo]

You will love monk

[true valve]

Iydllshire

[obsidian patio]

Any job to 60

[gentle loom]

which class turns into gundancer? or gunbreaker?

[graceful sail]

Do you know which store?

[obsidian patio]

Expansion jobs are standalone

[leaden ginkgo]

None, gotta unlock it at lvl 60

[obsidian patio]

They don’t have a class that evolves into them

[true valve]

Center building with the three vendors. Should b the right vendor. Shire gear

[lucid sequoia]

But which class flows into dancer

[obsidian patio]

Gunbreaker is unlocked at Gunbreaker, simple as that.

[lucid sequoia]

Whats arcanist

[gentle loom]

dam this game is confusing af

[obsidian patio]

None directly.

[gentle loom]

lol

[true valve]

Scholar and summoner

[gentle loom]

wtf is a dancer

[lucid sequoia]

Dancer is best class in game

[true valve]

Support range dps

[lucid sequoia]

You dance and people feel better about themselves

[obsidian patio]

They use throwing glaives and heavily buff a specific party member

[leaden ginkgo]

Don’t worry about it until you beat Heavensward

can i transfer my char between NA and EU servers if i pay?

[opal swan]

How do i augment my crypt lurker gear? Do i have to farm the nier raids?

[lucid sequoia]

So arc is conjurer?

[graceful sail]

Got it thanks!

[obsidian patio]

No.

Arcanist becomes Summoner and Scholar.

[true valve]

No conjurer is white mage

[gentle loom]

do you guys think bard is fun? being a ranged support sounds lame 😦

[leaden ginkgo]

Arc is the summoning class, conj is a healer

Guys I searched on YouTube but can't find it. Does anybody know a video where I can see archer and Bard skills (abilities)

[obsidian patio]

Conjurer becomes White Mage.

[lucid sequoia]

Where do I become an archer?

[leaden ginkgo]

All classes are fun. You just gotta experiment until you find the right one

[obsidian patio]

I like it a decent amount, it has pretty high APM and keeps you on your toes with RNG procs

[leaden ginkgo]

Bard is a support?

[true valve]

https://youtu.be/uTd6JqR6SXE

[obsidian patio]

Not that support-y

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks a lot

[obsidian patio]

It just has more party buffs than most classes do

[lucid sequoia]

Rank the support classes for me

[true valve]

Gridania

[leaden ginkgo]

If you’re having second thoughts on Archer, spec into a different job. Lancers use positionals == they move and stab shit

[lucid sequoia]

Dancer > bard > enchanter?

Is there enchanter?

[leaden ginkgo]

I like to support my team so I was going to play white mage but I dunno I think archer Bard is more fun

[opal swan]

I stopped seeing bards ever since dancer came out

[ivory rover]

Do people keep ther DoH / DoL gear for other classes? It seems like such a huge waste of space yet it's like 100k spent every 10 levels just to buy the gear again

[obsidian patio]

Dancer > Bard > like basically all of the other classes > Machinist/Black Mage/Samurai

[leaden ginkgo]

Don’t worry about which class is best atm.

[obsidian patio]

No enchanter class.

[torpid tangle]

Chocobo Race experts, how do you get Rare Skill tomes added to the shop like Super Sprint or their III's

[gentle loom]

hey what level are you? im about to switch to archer too

[lucid sequoia]

What is a blue mage?

[obsidian patio]

Side content as a job

[true valve]

Hella bards in limsa kekw

[ivory rover]

It is a mage, that is simply blue

[opal swan]

Like from best to worst? All 3 of them are good and have their own unique aspects tbh no job is better than the other

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm new just creating a new character lol

[lucid sequoia]

Is ninja support?

[leaden ginkgo]

A mage that is banned from a lot of raids

[obsidian patio]

They’re basically super OP in the content they can do, but are limited in the content they’re allowed to do

And have a lower level cap

[true valve]

Special limited job that caps at 70. Side content

[leaden ginkgo]

There are 3 types of classes; tank, dps, and healer.

[gentle loom]

i literally just started too, im only lvl 9 (dont go thaumaturgae) lmaooo

[leaden ginkgo]

If you want to rely on supporting the party, pick a healer

[lucid sequoia]

Yeah I just started too

[leaden ginkgo]

Lol yeah I didn't like it anyways

[lucid sequoia]

I’m lvl 11 atm

[gentle loom]

oh wait aether and primal cant play together right?

[lucid sequoia]

I am pugilist

I push 3 buttons in order

[leaden ginkgo]

Bard and Dancer are the primary support dps, but they prioritize hitting hard vs healing the party

[neon holly]

what is up with blue mage? it says limited job. Is this only playable during an event or something

[true valve]

If you want to see what looks cool

https://youtu.be/jaGxC7wnBDo

[lucid sequoia]

I thought red mage would be cool

[leaden ginkgo]

It is

I main it

[lucid sequoia]

Melee spell caster

Right?

[gentle loom]

which class turns into red mage?

[opal swan]

Bard has higher dps than dancer

[true valve]

Red mage is cool. Blind your group with limit break 3

[raw solstice]

it's a job by itself, no base class

[opal swan]

You start as red mage

[leaden ginkgo]

More like spell caster with a hop, 3 melee combo, and retreat

[raw solstice]

it's mostly a caster, it has a melee phase but it's a minor thing

[gentle loom]

at lvl 10?

[leaden ginkgo]

50

[lucid sequoia]

I wanna see my little onion boy dance tho

[opal swan]

No, you must be level 50 at another job to unlock it

[obsidian patio]

Only the base game jobs have classes

[leaden ginkgo]

I don't think so I'm going to play In Light EU. U r NA I guess

[obsidian patio]

All expansion jobs start as themselves

[leaden ginkgo]

Unlock Gold saucer, save up MGP, and buy a dance emote

[lucid sequoia]

Mgp?

[true valve]

Data centers cannot play together until a later patch. But it will still be region locked

[plush pebble]

hey I'm a returning player and im trying to understand why I get an invalid password error when logging into the client. I can log into mogstation fine, am i missing d something?

[leaden ginkgo]

You’ll know it when you unlock yhe Gold Saucer

[gentle loom]

yeah im NA

any new players in aether wanna party?

[lucid sequoia]

What classes can I be thanalan

Oh I went primal

I think I’m on behemoth?

Bahamut?

B something

[leaden ginkgo]

Arcanist, Pugilist, Maruader

Is chaos better than light? More active or something?

[gentle loom]

im on saspurgauss

[true valve]

Black mage. Paladin. Monk

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh and Rogue

[opal swan]

Both are active

[lucid sequoia]

I want to be rogue

But it says limsa!

Where is rogue

[true valve]

Arcanist and Mara and rogue are limsa

[lucid sequoia]

Can someone teleport me to limsa

I don’t want to wait till 15

[leaden ginkgo]

Use the Return command

[true valve]

You cannot until you do the msq 15 envoy quest

[leaden ginkgo]

Or the teleport command and click Limsa

[lucid sequoia]

Ugh

[true valve]

He has not done the envoy yet

[leaden ginkgo]

Oof

[lucid sequoia]

Balls

[leaden ginkgo]

Just ff through it, it’s not bad

[gentle loom]

there is a NPC called Bussi in this game

[leaden ginkgo]

Press start and skip cutscene if you can

what do u loss when u transfer $18?

[graceful sail]

I don't quite understand anima weapons. I would like to get mimesis lux but don't know what to do. I think there's a quest I saw called relic reborn or smthn like that

[lucid sequoia]

“Just get to level 10 and you can be rogue. Don’t worry about what starting class you go” fml

[leaden ginkgo]

You’re fine. It’s good to experiment

[true valve]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Anima_Weapons/Quest

[lucid sequoia]

I just want to dance

[opal swan]

Check out the steps https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Anima_Weapons

[true valve]

Anima weapons are HW weapons Zodiac are ARR weld

[leaden ginkgo]

There’s an emote for that. You have it by default

[lucid sequoia]

Does anyone play console

How do I make target not suck

[wispy basalt]

a lot of people plays in console

[leaden ginkgo]

I do. Console is fine

[true valve]

It always sucks

[graceful sail]

So if I do the anima weapons questline I get every HW weapon for that class?

[neon holly]

how does this person have the angel wings without needing to use the angelic attire from store? https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/glamour/66495/god-is-a-woman

[lucid sequoia]

I spend half a fight cycling trying to find my closest target

[leaden ginkgo]

Up and down for targeting enemies, left and right for allies

[true valve]

Yes you get each weapon going thru the class

[leaden ginkgo]

Press Circle and X and it’ll click the closest enemy to you

Can Archer/Bard do a knock back attack to enemies?

[lucid sequoia]

Isnt it left right for enemies?

[true valve]

No

[leaden ginkgo]

Nope, up and down

[lucid sequoia]

Ugh

Thats probably why

[graceful sail]

Got it thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

You can also press circle to refresh than X. This’ll automatically lock on to the cloest enemy

[gentle loom]

as a new player should i read all the dialog for quests or just skip it?

[true valve]

Each weapon step will be sold separately from a vendor so you can glamour

[leaden ginkgo]

You don’t have to, but the MSQ and job quests are interesting. Side quests you can mash through

[lucid sequoia]

Going to test it

Up down targets me

[graceful sail]

Yep have a ton of them. I need the crafting materials as well right?

[wispy basalt]

up*

[leaden ginkgo]

Mash until it lands on an enemy. Outside of that, up and down targets your char

[true valve]

Not sure haven’t done in awhile

[calm scaffold]

Though not everything, you can buy from the online store while on a free trial account

If you can't, this error shows

Question

[alpine vapor]

is there a benefit to doing (hard) dungeons even if im past that level? im almost to stormblood and just started to unlock ARR and heavensward hard dungeons

[runic cairn]

you get some bonus poetics for your first clear

[snow violet]

I'm doing some miner levequests, and for some reason I don't see the "I Kidd You Not" quest from Nahctahr. Only 2 of them are there. Is this normal or am I missing something?

[stray dawn]

whats a good way to get some gil from using poetics tomes? don't need gears atm

[stuck ingot]

is there a way to set kupo bot to default to a datacenter so don't need to type it in every command

[wispy basalt]

!faq poetics

[zinc orbit]

What should I spend my Poetics on? How do I get more?

[hot eagle]

leves in arr rotate if you can't see it do another from the same npc and check the npc after it again should show up after a bit

[snow violet]

@hot eagle gotcha, thanks Chibi!

[hot eagle]

yeah a lot leve npcs in arr have more as 2 leves in their stock, but only show 2 so if it happens you need to do another and hope the 1 you need shows up soon

[snow violet]

actually leveled after do the first one thanks to the exp gathering book, onward to the next level of leves 🙂

[wispy basalt]

spamming dungeons is better but if your q time is long do potd

[snow violet]

I hear command missions also do well for leveling alts

[opal swan]

How do i get the nier coins needed to augment my cryptlurker gear?

Do i just have to play?

[hot eagle]

run the 3 shb alliance raids

each drop 1 type of the coins

[gentle loom]

what is potency? is that like an attribute somewhere

[raw solstice]

potency is basically a base strength for a skill/spell/ability for comparison, before any buffs/traits/whatever else

[calm scaffold]

Damage skills have potencies in their descriptions. higher potency = higher damage basically

[raw solstice]

so you can use it to compare to other skills on the same job

you can't translate potency cleanly across jobs for comparison, to note, but for the same job it can give you a good idea of how strong one ability is compared to another

[gentle loom]

oh

when i swap between umbral ice or astral fire the potency of my attacks dont change

so how do i know how much stronger/weaker they are?

[snow violet]

How often does the behemoth fate trigger?

[raw solstice]

so, numerically the effects of AF/UI aren't listed in-game, but here's some info on them:
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Astral_Fire

ok thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

How many leves does it take to get fisher from 1-80?

[lone birch]

Best way to make gil using mining and goldsmithing?

[leaden ginkgo]

Scholar and summoner can cast abilities while moving just like archer and Bard?

[lucid sequoia]

How do i increase lookspeed on controller

[dire prawn]

No and no unless the cast time says instant

[snow violet]

I've heard that you can do ocean fishing from 1-80

[dire prawn]

i.e

!action Ruin II

[zinc orbit]

**Ruin II** : lvl 38 ACN SMN (400 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

[twilit patrol]

can i remove materias from item to use it in another item?

[leaden ginkgo]

so i preordered endwalkers collectors edition online and put it on my account, how do i go about getting the 5% xp ring?

[nocturne wyvern]

Right click and select retrieve materia.

[twilit patrol]

thank you

[nocturne wyvern]

It should get mailed to you.

But it takes some time.

[hollow garnet]

do i really need to join an FC or rent an apartment if i want to dye my chocobo?

[leaden ginkgo]

@nocturne wyvern yeah it's been 12+ hours already ;-;

[nocturne wyvern]

Yes.

[hollow garnet]

bruh 😭

[nocturne wyvern]

What? It’s not that bad. XD

[wispy basalt]

what macro should i use if i want to craft specifc item from crafting log

[hollow garnet]

ive just never wanted to join an FC, and id feel like a turd for joining one just to dye and then leaving

[obsidian patio]

Entirely depends on the item and your stats

And your level

[nocturne wyvern]

Well those are your options unfortunately.

[wispy basalt]

for lv 60

we dont have general macro for each 10 levels ?

[nocturne wyvern]

Most people don’t macro crafting at the low end.

Or at the high end depending on what they’re doing.

[wispy basalt]

i just wanna do leves quest with HQ

[nocturne wyvern]

More importantly, macros can misfire at times.

[obsidian patio]

Wrong copy paste

[wispy basalt]

its ok buddy

[obsidian patio]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/gs62di/post_mortems_lv180_disciple_of_the_hand_leveling/

Just make sure you meet the relevant stats for each macro

[nocturne wyvern]

@hollow garnet Are you on Mateus? You could join my fc just to dye your bird. I don’t mind.

Is the demo on steam the same thing as the free trial with the launcher?

[nocturne wyvern]

No.

[wispy basalt]

Thank you !

[leaden ginkgo]

is Ragnarok the most populated eu server

[obsidian patio]

yes they have the same features

[nocturne wyvern]

Balmung is supposedly.

[obsidian patio]

but starting the trial on steam locks your account to steam in terms of PC/Steam licenses

Balmung isn't an EU server

[leaden ginkgo]

but Balmung is na

[nocturne wyvern]

Oh eu. Missed that.

[obsidian patio]

honestly I wouldn't worry much about finding the most populated world. all of the NA/EU worlds are practically bursting at the seams with all the new players starting recently

I'm surprised that patch 5.58 didn't make any worlds classified as Congested, tbh

[leaden ginkgo]

what can you do friend list/grouping wise?

[dense estuary]

Is this banking on first timers being there

[obsidian patio]

they're a nice bonus, but not required

you can also spam all of the level 50/60/70 duties you haven't done yet, if applicable

which includes the 8-man and 24-man raids

[dense estuary]

It just doesnt show a poetics reward for the 50/60/70 duties

[obsidian patio]

They should. unless you're looking at the roulette itself.

I'm talking about individual duties

[dense estuary]

Oh dont do roulette?

got it

[torn violet]

Do I really have to grind that much for 490 gear?

[obsidian patio]

not particularly. you can supplement it with level 80 dungeon and raid gear as you can do those with higher and higher item level

[obsidian patio]

In terms of absolute highest poetics gain, the level 60 dungeon Aetherochemical Research Facility gives the most at 150 poetics.

[dense estuary]

I need exactly 260

[vale jacinth]

Can I blind run/tank Labyrinth of the Ancients? I'm at the point now I have to do it to progress MSQ.

[obsidian patio]

yes

[hard aurora]

you might get that from first time bonuses, if you're lucky @dense estuary

[obsidian patio]

24-man raids are only a step or two above dungeons in difficulty.

[maiden copper]

so, this is sort of a music related question, but its using xiv music as the reference
so how a fair bit of the songs per expac share a similar melodic line, what is that term called

i cant think of it for the life of me

and my explaination doesnt really help

i saw before you deleted it, that is technically correct, it got me to the right word lol

[crimson harbor]

Does the game have steam achievements, or is it just the in-game ones?

[leaden ginkgo]

what does it mean when parse have scorres beyond 100?

[obsidian patio]

They can't go beyond 100.

You might be looking at All Star points, which are a slightly different metric of measurement

[leaden ginkgo]

i was looking at damage for edin raid

[little swift]

you can't parse higher than 100 in percentile

[leaden ginkgo]

eh??? how did these guys do it

[obsidian patio]

as far as i can tell looking at the store page and through friends list, it doesn't have steam achievements

[raw solstice]

they didn't parse above 100th percentile, you are misunderstanding in some fashion

[obsidian patio]

can you take a screenshot?

or link the parse

[raw solstice]

100th percentile is based on the top parse for a fight. If someone does better than the top parse, then they are the new 100th percentile

I'm not sure of the context of what chart this is from

[obsidian patio]

yeah a link would be helpful in knowing what the chart is showing

[little swift]

that just seems like an x,y plot with no context

isn't really representative of a parse

[leaden ginkgo]

so i've won 3 cards from this npc so far, does this mean she has 4 other cards i haven't gotten from her? http://puu.sh/I2l6Y/a2d2215a08.jpg

[obsidian patio]

you need to use the cards first for the NPC to recognize them as you having them

[little swift]

the cards aren't revealed until they're in your collection

[leaden ginkgo]

ok so the little "?" means i don't have them in my collection and they can award it to me?

[past vine]

So, if i pre-order endwalker from steam, will i get the shadowbringers and other xpacs when it is released? Or should i buy complete pack and endwalker seperately atm?

[gentle loom]

okay i just finished the quest for my class, im lvl 11, in ul'dah, where can i find the guilds for other classes?

[obsidian patio]

preordering endwalker will give you stormblood and shadowbringers on official launch

[obsidian patio]

yes

[wispy basalt]

just incase The HQ% means
8% chance will be hq ?

yes

[crimson harbor]

When selecting a region when installing, does this lock characters to regions? Can I change it later?

[runic cairn]

no

your store region and game language have no effect on server access

[obsidian patio]

your account region only changes what game codes and timecards you're able to use

[runic cairn]

anyone can make a character wherever

[patent citrus]

Can you jump to e12s straight away without completing e9s-e11s?

for the first time

ok ty ty

The challenge log reset every Tuesday (EU), right ?

[patent citrus]

is that yes answer to me or the other person? 😂

[obsidian patio]

other person

[patent citrus]

ah ok

[crimson harbor]

So are the regions at the start only for the store? Or is it also the server/do I choose the server later?

[patent citrus]

so Can you jump to e12s straight away without completing e9s-e11s?

[patent citrus]

store region and data center are different thing

[remote kestrel]

How to I check if I am a member of one of the Grand Companies?

[slate arrow]

you'll have beaten Ifrit by then

[patent citrus]

you can be in NA Region store, but still play in EU/JP Region

[slate arrow]

unless you mean which one

because you have to be a part of one as part of the story

[remote kestrel]

the wiki says it should happen around lvl 20, it's so I can start the chocobo mount quest

[slate arrow]

have you beat ifrit yet

[remote kestrel]

my current story quest is "The Scions of the Seventh Dawn"

[slate arrow]

keep doing your MSQ

[remote kestrel]

alright, I guess that you just get more exp now then before since I am lvl 25 now

[slate arrow]

job level is irrelevant, until you can't keep doing the MSQ

everything is quest locked

[gentle loom]

how can i find where the other class guilds are

[cedar compass]

When does the current feast season end?

[remote kestrel]

just found it weird that I have only done store and job quests and am 5 lvls head of what the wiki tells you xD

[obsidian patio]

yeah the story is very generous

[fickle plume]

you can keybind stuff to shift+(), and ctrl+() but can i bind something to just shift or ctrl?

[slate arrow]

no, as shift and ctrl can only be used as modifiers

[fickle plume]

can i bind regular buttons to act as modifiers?

[obsidian patio]

only Shift/Control/Alt can be modifiers

[slate arrow]

no, gotta use mouse/keyboard software for that

[fickle plume]

alright

[patent citrus]

drops from chest

and you get pity drops like totem

when you collect 100 totem, you can trade them for the mount

[leaden ginkgo]

guys how do i rank up my squadron?

through squadron missions?

[obsidian patio]

yep

the flagged missions are the one that unlocks more stuff

[alpine vapor]

So it's either the mount drops, or you do it 100 guaranteed @patent citrus?

[patent citrus]

yeah it's 99 or 100 I don't remember

some primals drop 2 totems if the fight takes a long time to finish

[leaden ginkgo]

so i can start command missions once somebody has reached level 20?

[sturdy estuary]

i think older bosses have a higher drop rate for the mounts so you'll get it before 99 totems

[obsidian patio]

once you complete the first flagged mission, yes.

do note that Flagged missions are harder since you MUST meet all 3 stat requirements to complete them

so overleveling might be required

[leaden ginkgo]

is it better to use ffxivsquadron then?

to like calculate for proper training

for stats

[obsidian patio]

yeah that'll help a fair bit

[visual agate]

where do i get the quest "where i belong" i looked it up it says i gotta go to the empty but no npc is there i want to unlock eternety savage

Just in case you did it already without knowing, but are the savage raids in your raid finder?

since it's a super quick quest you can easily skip through without knowing

that and it doesn't even appear in your journal

you accept it and then it's completed

[visual agate]

only unlocked til refulgence

[slate arrow]

welp, i got nothing

you haven't turned in the prereq quest then

you're looking in raid finder, right? and not the duty finder?

because eden's promise savage raids won't be with the other savage eden raids

Can anyone help me with this? I recently re-arranged my UI in a big manner... And the padlock to lock the skills on the bars is gone (I made hotbar 1 a 4x3). Is there like a keybind or some other way to lock and unlock the skills on the fly?

[slate arrow]

find hotbar one and click it to bring it to the front

you likely hid it behind one UI element or another

[wise pendant]

are cosmetic mods like "legal" in the game?

as in do cosmetic mods violate the game's ToS in some way

[slate arrow]

they're against ToS but for the most part as long as you don't have the FFXIV copyright in your publicly shared you'll probably be fine.

[static lagoon]

@slate arrow what do you mean 'bring it to the front'?

It's in the middle of my screen

[slate arrow]

click on Hotbar 1 to bring it to the front

it's like layers

[static lagoon]

And how do I do that?

[wise pendant]

if you click on the UI element in the UI edit thing

[slate arrow]

just click on it

[static lagoon]

I did, nothing happens

[wise pendant]

try going into the little settings icon next to the hotbar?

[slate arrow]

then you likely did something more

probably under hotbar settings under character config

[static lagoon]

This is my UI atm

still arranging etc

[wise pendant]

oh

[slate arrow]

it's off the bottom of the screen

[wise pendant]

you have to bring them higher

lol

[static lagoon]

Oh it's under the bar? 😦

[wise pendant]

y e s

XD

[static lagoon]

Aww man, that sucks haha

[slate arrow]

under your screen edges, actually

[wise pendant]

i do like that layout though

i might try something similar

[static lagoon]

Thanks

[wise pendant]

although i have way too many skills because ranged dps

[static lagoon]

Is there like some way to keybind the lock/unlock option?

[slate arrow]

no....? no. none that im aware of

Damn it 😦 okay thanks for the help guys!

[fathom arrow]

guys i am doing my zeta weapon but i can't find a furnance ring is it possible that there is none in the auction house ?

[obsidian patio]

world visit to another world on your datacenter and check their markets

[leaden ginkgo]

anyone know why when using a macro for changing gearset to gatherers, it shows an error? it works fine for my other classes

[obsidian patio]

the marketboard is player-run, so if an item has no listing then no one on that server is selling it.

[fathom arrow]

i try, in case i need to contact a crafter ?

[wise pendant]

it might be an old macro created before the most recent patches

[obsidian patio]

just buy it from their marketboard

[trail tiger]

is there a way to highlight the members of my FC's names? like have them of another color such as orange for friends

[obsidian patio]

you can buy from marketboard on other servers

[wise pendant]

those usually don't work because every major patch they basically rework the spaghetti code of the game, even though the actions you're using have the same name

[leaden ginkgo]

wdym cause /gearset change DOES work for my other classes

[obsidian patio]

character config > log window settings > colors

[trail tiger]

no i mean

not in chat

[wise pendant]

like in game

[trail tiger]

yeah

[obsidian patio]

uhh, I can't remember the name of the setting but the button that looks like a person with a bar above their head

[wise pendant]

in the overworld as some call it

[obsidian patio]

and click the colored circles to change the color of the name for that type of thing

[trail tiger]

hold on. let me check

[runic cairn]

FC members isn't an available setting in that menu

[wise pendant]

i honestly don't know

[trail tiger]

this thing was clickable? holy shit

thanks a lot

[leaden ginkgo]

anybody know how to fix this?

[trail tiger]

is it alliance members?

[leaden ginkgo]

got it when trying to enter firmament

[trail tiger]

cause i can't see FC members

[obsidian patio]

If you can't see it it's not an option. :\

[leaden ginkgo]

wait nvm im a wanderer

[obsidian patio]

alliance member is for 24-mans

[runic cairn]

there is a third-party plugin for highlighting FC member names, if you're into that sort of thing

[trail tiger]

i mean why not

[slate arrow]

Either a bad instance or there's something wrong, like your queue popped but you're lagging so you're trying to transition zones when the game won't let you

[trail tiger]

DM it to me?

[left whale]

yknow when you list an item for sale and i t tells ya the game steals 5% of your profits
but like.. you're listing it in a market with reduced taxes, down to 3% or smthn

but the little menu still tells ya its yoinking 5%... really which is it?

[runic cairn]

!faq quicklauncher

[zinc orbit]

Official Launcher Giving you Trouble on Updates?

Try this alternative 3rd party launcher

[runic cairn]

the plugin interface is a part of this

[slate arrow]

And no, you can't install it without using this launcher as the required prereqs literally use xivlauncher libraries or something along those lines

Fortunately it can use your existing install perfectly fine

Not like the vanilla launcher

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks! i figured it out, i forgot to return to my server after a train

[obsidian patio]

3% from your end for selling the item, the buyer gets 5% added onto the listed price

[trail tiger]

thanks

[nocturne wyvern]

Except you don’t have to match the socket.

[sullen junco]

you can get them on the market right?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yeah.

But most of them are vendor trash.

There are a few low level ones needed for quests. But that’s about it.

[hexed zephyr]

people keep saying extreme garuda is easy and i had my troubles, am i just bad or what

[nocturne wyvern]

Then raiders obviously use the highest end ones.

[obsidian patio]

most of the ones below grade 6 are vendor trash

[sullen junco]

I got a bunch of VII with trash stats

will just vendor them

[obsidian patio]

but always best to double check what they sell for on the marketboard first

What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)

[rapid notch]

hey everyone 👋

New player, loving the game! Few quality of life questions which would help me loads. I play WHM

1. Can you get rid of all the player buffs/status effects when in a party? I see an option to change how many icons display (5-10) but I want to remove them or even better only show HoT's/buffs I cast (unlikely this is an option). When in a Full Party there's so much going on and I don't care about the 5+ buffs all the raid have, I really only care about what I've casted so I can easily see if my raid don't have a HoT (i know it also shows things to dispel but for a new player there's far too much going on to work out which of the symbols means you need to dispel so i'm happy to lose that)

2. Are there any macro's or assigning casts to mouse clicks? So currently I have to tab/click on my target and then cast a heal. Is there a way to make this action so I can left click on Party List name and it casts a spell bound to left click mouse?

3. Can you set your Companion Chocobo on some sort of defensive/aggressive option (thinking hunter pet in wow) so that he auto attacks if I get attacked. I have it set to Defensive stance but he won't attack unless I attack something with a direct spell. So if I'm healing a party, my Chocobo just stands around adding no value because I'm not attacking anything

Much appreciated in advance and apologies for the long read ❤️

[iron orbit]

how do i put pet actions on the hotbar

[gritty oracle]

You get accessories from 5, hat/glove/shoes from 6, pants from 7 and chest/wp from 8. All of them are easily doable in duty finder.

[obsidian patio]

grab them from the pet section of the actions and trait menu

[nocturne wyvern]

Not on normal.

[iron orbit]

it says action cannot be set to the hotbar though

[nocturne wyvern]

Normal drops like… all of them.

which button to press to check the weekly reset again? in game

o nvm its ctrl + U

[iron orbit]

any1 plz

[nocturne wyvern]

It means you can’t.

There is no way.

It’s not possible.

[obsidian patio]

1. Pretty sure having only your buffs isn't an option, but if it would be anywhere, go to HUD Layout and select the Party UI and then click the cog. That will have most, if not all, relevant UI settings for it.

2. You can macro it, but it will be suboptimal due to how macros work in this game. If you don't mind a solution that breaks whenever new patches happen, go to #healer-lounge and look at the pins.

3. Pretty sure not.

[iron orbit]

nah but it was on my hotbar at one point

so can i just never use it then?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yeah they got rid of pet actions on hot bars. It’s all auto fire.

[iron orbit]

wtf

[solid fog]

@obsidian patio Wait... if someone with 2nd rank power that ca nwithdraw took the money does it still show it in the activity log ?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yes.

[solid fog]

Even for the FC master ?

[obsidian patio]

yes

[nocturne wyvern]

Yes.

[solid fog]

Huh...

[azure thistle]

Can anyone please tell me how I can fix this odd issue with Diadem crafting. I have all the mats to make Grade 2 Skybuilders' Hemp Milk, but whenever I press the synch button to make it, literally nothing happens. I went over every single thing I could think of, from my level, to gear on me, to the exact mats, etc. and nothing works. There's no error, no notification, system problem, nothing. As I press synch, it closes the craft log window, and nothing happens.

[solid fog]

How the heck did the gil disappear

[azure thistle]

I don't have this issue for any other craft other than Diadem items.

[nocturne wyvern]

You got robbed and someone found a way to get it off the activity log.

That’s the only possible explanation.

[solid fog]

No someone got hacked from our fc promoted themselfs and took it thats what i know

but how is that possible

[nocturne wyvern]

Oh that.

Yeah there’s an issue where someone with the promotion privileges can promote themselves.

It’s dumb.

[obsidian patio]

yeah you don't want to give promotion privileges to anyone but the highest rank

[fathom arrow]

guys fastest way to farm company seals ?

[nocturne wyvern]

I lead an fc myself. Absolutely no one can access the gil or promotions but me. >_>

[solid fog]

I know

[nocturne wyvern]

Gc hunting log.

Fate spam.

[rapid notch]

Much thanks

[nocturne wyvern]

Leveling roulette adventurer in need.

[nocturne wyvern]

Unfortunately it means that gil is gone. SE won’t do anything about it. Sorry brother.

[sand mural]

Ty, lad

[leaden ginkgo]

hi can anyone help me

i am new to this game

[fathom arrow]

oh i just saw i did all my company hunting log so fate spam ?

[nocturne wyvern]

Be more specific.

[solid fog]

man like 70% of it wasnt even our gil it was gifted

[leaden ginkgo]

so which server is best to play?

[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

[nocturne wyvern]

Unless you want to run leveling roulette.

[obsidian patio]

All servers in general are pretty populated right now so it's all equal for the most part

[woven talon]

Is there any use to having an unbalanced alignment as a red mage? I know it slows the gain of the opposite type, but does it like buff the type you have advantage in?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yeah. It’s unfortunate. There’s no recourse or remedy. It sucks.

[obsidian patio]

it's a punishment for bad mana management

[leaden ginkgo]

tyty

[obsidian patio]

no buff to it

[nocturne wyvern]

No advantage. It just means you did a bad.

[woven talon]

oh well, that might have been interesting

[wispy basalt]

i have to put materia in this or i have to Unlock A new slot matria

[obsidian patio]

put materia in it

any grade 1 materia works

[wispy basalt]

Thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

Dumb question. how long does it take to do and complete every quest in the game Main and side quests (All expansion Packs!) (Approximately)

[nocturne wyvern]

It depends.

[leaden ginkgo]

I know that's why I said approximately

I doesnt need to be accurate

I just wanna get the idea

[mild ermine]

In Hades ex during the dps tethered phase. Is it possible for the tanks to run through the tether before the blast goes off?

[obsidian patio]

probably a month depending on how extensive you are.

and how much a day you can play

[mild ermine]

Does anyone know?

[leaden ginkgo]

U kidding bro

[mild ermine]

I need the clarity.

[sand mural]

@obsidian patio still error meanwhile taking money too

[obsidian patio]

I mean you're asking for a LOT of content to be done

and if that includes the beast tribe quests then even longer

[mild ermine]

Really need this answered so if anyone knows ping me asap.

[leaden ginkgo]

true that's why it's dumb

[obsidian patio]

It's a base game and 3 whole expansions worth of content. 😛

[leaden ginkgo]

Yeah it's a really fine game.

[obsidian patio]

during the meteors? tanks can run through them

[gritty oracle]

The tethers snapshot when the cats expires, at least that's the case with all modern casts.

[leaden ginkgo]

Every expansion adds about 50ish hours of play time right?

[obsidian patio]

depending on how much side content you do, yeah

like doing old raids and stuff at minimum item level for the challenge

[leaden ginkgo]

Cool

Are the ARR base story quests short?

[nocturne wyvern]

It’s shorter than it was.

Clearing all of ARR msq took me about three weeks and I played a lot.

[leaden ginkgo]

Good so it's gonna take somewhere from level 1 to 50 or something?

[nocturne wyvern]

I had to stop to get my item level up a few times.

That took extra time.

This was also as tank so my queues were (relatively) fast.

[leaden ginkgo]

Do you remember which level you were when done it?

[nocturne wyvern]

I was 50. This was before Hw came out.

[leaden ginkgo]

Mmm

[nocturne wyvern]

So the level cap hadn’t been raised yet.

[leaden ginkgo]

Nice

[nocturne wyvern]

I started about a month before HW came out and powered through everything in 3 weeks to be ready.

[solid fog]

Oh guys i see it!

[leaden ginkgo]

Is it better to pre order endwalker or wait for endwalker complete edition?

[solid fog]

it was in the "history" when you go to the company chest

[nocturne wyvern]

We don’t know when EW complete edition will be out.

[leaden ginkgo]

November 23

Confirmed

[nocturne wyvern]

Sorry. I edited it, I meant the complete edition.

[leaden ginkgo]

Yeah

How long does the previous exp took to be included in the complete edition

[obsidian patio]

I'm pretty sure the same day or so of official launch

like basically the first week at worst

[leaden ginkgo]

So it doesn't take too long

[nocturne wyvern]

In my opinion it’s worth pre-ordering. But I’ve got an active fc community and we are all going in together.

[leaden ginkgo]

Great

[nocturne wyvern]

Your mileage may vary.

[sand mural]

I cleaned the cookies and still getting this

[sullen junco]

are there any guides on RDM? which stats should i go for

crit?

[nocturne wyvern]

Crit and DH. Avoid spell speed.

[sullen junco]

ty ❤️

[nocturne wyvern]

That’s the simplest aim. But remember that increasing your item level is more important. More int will provide far more dps than any secondary stat.

[sullen junco]

is 510ilvl good for a start at 80?

[nocturne wyvern]

Yup. That’s the starting point for gearing up.

[sullen junco]

what's the cap ilevel nowadays?

[nocturne wyvern]

530 armor. 535 weapon.

Either completed relic or Eden 12s weapon will get you a 535.

[leaden ginkgo]

one more doubt

does race matter?

like does ever race has its unique sill or something?

[obsidian patio]

nah

only difference is slight stat variance that doesn't matter past the very early levels

[nocturne wyvern]

The most noticeable difference for races is a very small difference in hp. But it’s so minute it doesn’t matter.

[obsidian patio]

Also Viera and Hrothgars don't have all helmets visible on them

[rapid notch]

Can you get ACT on Mac yet?

[leaden ginkgo]

Is Auto AFK useful for something or should I turn it off?

[obsidian patio]

you can have a setting that slows the framerate when AFK

so it's a bit easier on your computer when you're away doing other things

[sullen junco]

what ratio of crit/dh is good?

should I aim for an even spread or is DH just secondary and i should get as much crit?

[nocturne wyvern]

As much as you can possibly get on both. But crit is considered better.

[rich gazelle]

i dont want the game to auto extend my subs

should i click cancel subscription?

[leaden ginkgo]

Wow that's cool how to do it

[sullen junco]

so should I just get full crit materia or should I try to balance it?

[nocturne wyvern]

Crit until you can’t get anymore. Then DH

[obsidian patio]

should be in the same menu as setting up auto-afk

[sullen junco]

thanks ❤️

[obsidian patio]

or somewhere in System Config

[obsidian patio]

yes

and then you can set it up as non-recurring

[rich gazelle]

ok

thanks

[nocturne wyvern]

At this point in the expansion I wouldn’t try overmelding the crafted set.

Not worth it.

[sullen junco]

melding?

[nocturne wyvern]

Materia.

[sullen junco]

ah

it seems like a pretty cheap thing though

[nocturne wyvern]

Crafted gear can have up to 5 materia in it but any after the first open slots has a significantly reduced chance of succeeding.

[sullen junco]

like only 4.5k for VIII crit per?

oh

[nocturne wyvern]

So the body armor has two materia slots for example. That has a 100% chance of success. Getting in a third is a 17% chance of success if I’m not mistaken? So you could end up spending thousands and never succeed.

A fourth materia is a 10% and the fifth is a 7% chance of success. XD

But when you’re a raider in a new tier we need to squeeze out as much dps as possible.

[sullen junco]

oh, but if my gear has 16 slots in total I can put in 16 with 100% rate right?

[nocturne wyvern]

Right.

[sullen junco]

that's fine, thanks for clarifying!

[obsidian patio]

You don't need ishgard to unlock ifrit hard

Pretty sure you can access the quest before access to a stables.

But to use the stables requires the quest completion.

[obsidian patio]

grab this quest from the minfilia in the waking sands and do the Ifrit/Garuda/Titan quests that appear

[graceful apex]

Hmm aight

[lone rapids]

Can I join a FC on any server within my data center? Primal

[lone rapids]

ahh thank you!

[obsidian patio]

if you do them unsynced, yes.

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm currently level 7. Which is the better option to choose from quests rewards gear like (feet,head,etc) or gils?

[obsidian patio]

gear is generally the best option

[sleek delta]

Hello! I just started bard performance and i'm struggling to do a proper key binding (french keyboard), could someone send me a screenshot of his settings so i can practice from already written songs? (example: F#+1 B+1 A B+1 G+1 E+1, C+1 E+1 A+1 F#+1, idk how to convert it)

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[sullen junco]

what is this?

do i need crafting in order to put in materia?

[vital ruin]

what to do with hydatos clusters

[oblique lintel]

crafting professions only go up to level 50 in ARR right?

[viral osprey]

oke can someone tell me if gunbreaker has a tank stance if so what is it?

[wispy basalt]

where i can get the recipes

[runic cairn]

they're classes with their own levels. they cap at the same level as combat jobs.

[agile laurel]

!action royal guard

[runic cairn]

yes. or you can pay an npc to do it for you

[sand dagger]

so i just finished the lv 50 WHM quest. is it normal for cure 3 to not work on the focus of the quest? i tried spamming it but it only healed me even with it targeted.

[zinc orbit]

**Royal Guard** : lvl 10 GNB (10.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Significantly increases enmity generation.

[viral osprey]

oke thank you

[agile laurel]

huh. only cure 3? that's bizarre

[sand dagger]

yeah. i was able to cure 2 and 1 and regen but not cure 3

[agile laurel]

odd

that quest is weird nowadays because it semi-expects you to have Stoneskin and/or Largesse, none of which exist anymore

so it's a little difficult comparatively

[hard ember]

Can someone help me out with Macros? I'm completely new to them and I can't get this one to work

I want it to Reflect > Innovation > Prudent Touch (x4) > Basic Synthesis (x3) but it seems to do things at random, and out of order

[regal pawn]

Cure 3 is the AoE?

[sand dagger]

no.

[agile laurel]

!action cure 3

[zinc orbit]

**Cure L** : lvl 0 PLD MNK WAR DRG BRD BLM SMN NIN MCH DRK SAM RDM GNB DNC (2.5 second cooldown)(2.0 second base cast time)

[regal pawn]

huh

[agile laurel]

Regardless of cure 3's purpose it should be castable on anything you can cast anything else on

(and, uh, btw, cure 3 is an aoe)
