full handsaint
gonna be tough with that gear. you'll want to your stats a fair bit higher
what are your crafter stats?
So I have 2 questions
- My hotbar for whm is shared with my crafters and every other class. How do I change this to where everyone has their own hotbar?
- For my whm when I'm playing it for some reason sometimes it will cycle back to hotbar 1 and I'll click my bene on accident not knowing it switched. How to I change that as well?
specialist might help as well
i thought handsaint was the beast gear outside of resplendant and skybuilder...
also this is my crafters atm
Untick shared hotbars in character config
iirc pentameld will beat out handsaint but don't quote me on that
does that matter? do you get a bonus for having more crafters leveled?
oh sorry
@sleek needle do you know how to solve my other question?
Currently I'm on zodiark and am looking to make another character on another server since I'm returning, which server is mostly English?
I'm not sure I understand it, is it with cross hotbars or smth?
you could stand to have your craftsmanship and CP a little higher, are you using food/syrup?
yea, that is with food to just get me over the controll requirement
i suppose actual bis will get that edge on your stats then tbh
best I can say is this will just be challenging
without crafter BiS you're gonna be hindering even further
what is bis then? becouse i thought this was best in slot outside of the stuff im trying to make
Ignored 
!faq worldpick
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
!faq balance
you'll find them there, for different stat breakpoints
@sleek needle when I'm using my hotbar in a dungeon I'm on hotbar one when I cycle over to hotbar 2 which is my dps hotbar it will auto cycle back to my hotbar one. Was wondering is there is a way to fix that for not cycling automatically
i see, thank you
@patent stump the only two worlds with noteable language populat are moogle (french), and shiva (germany)
So choose whatever
I like the sound of Odin so Ill try that
No idea, sorry, not cycling my hotbars 
shout is area-wide
@sleek needle all good thank you for trying
yell is simply a bit wider than say
No
And full of bots
No
Shout is that zone only
Yell is bigger say
Only linkshells, guild chat and novice network are world wide
But those all need invites
No public world chat
Just that zone
Only
Everything you see when you open the map

I got an apartment in my FC, if I ever get kicked for inactivity or just quit it will I loose all my stuff I did put in there?
It will go into the housing enthusiast
what do i do with extra cards?
If you're kicked
Trade to the gold saucer for.mgp
housing enthusiast?
ty
Npcs in housing wards
So it will be stashed there?
level 42 warrior so weak...
Yes for 30 days
Hey, new to ffxiv playing as a f2p player. And i wanted to ask. When i try to log in it sais "wold is full" (i know that the paying players are prioritised) but is there a way to atleast know when i should attempt to log in? its anoying to constantly open -> try- > nope -> closes ff ->open ect ect
Nope
There’s not really any particular way of predicting it other than that it’s easier to get in on dead zones, generally when it’s middle of the night in that region
All you can do is keep trying
😦 that kinda sucks
Daytime generally I'd guess, less so in weekends ofc
when do i start doing decent damage as a warrior
And late evening/night
That’s a really general question, but the answer is you’re a tank so it’s not your main focus
Classes picks up at 50+
You’ll always do less damage than the DPS assuming they aren’t bad
i cant even visit other servers is that because of the same issue or is that something else ?
You'll have access to ironworks gear as well when you reach mor dhona
Definitely not as quick
the slow levelig s killing me
Hi guys, just to check on the tales of adventure, did it automatically change to lvl 70 when shadowbringers was released? I'm thinking of buying some for alts, but not sure whether to just wait for endwalker if it updates to lvl 80 on the same day.
They removed the 60 boost and added a new one to 70
No space in servers 
ic, on the same day when shadowbringers was released?
is this a store mount? https://i.imgur.com/G6EKnwI.png
Close enough to it
Collectors edition one? It's not
But it doesn't have 8 legs

I need to learn a blue mage spell in Aurum Vale. Doing a PF. Do I need to be with other blue mages or anyone can join as long as it’s undersized?
Been 2 hours since I ordered something from mogstation and it still hasn't arrived, is that normal?
it should come from the fate tbh
Fakenir
Anyone can come but you want it synced
Try clicking the "check delivery" thing on moogle mail
@raven sage why synched
100% learn rate
Is this the right place to go to?
Yea one of the buttons up top
Alright thanks man
why is the non la hat so expensive?
ye it can be slow at times took me like 3h one day
damn
thanks
I'll wait another 30m or so and then I'll just log out and check tomorrow
Prolly the materials are expensive
High demand and all tht
Is the only way for me to get Eulmorean Certificates via 50kGIL exchanges via exchanging Exarchic gear?
It's a 1 Yo 1 ratio for your exarchic gear
You get the exact needed for a hat by trading a hat
is it worth it to get all the relics before shadowbringers or should i just wait and get my ultimate weapon and leave the relics for last?
Do it at cap
oh oke thx Vin ❤️
So this game is way more popular than when I last played 8months ago right?
Yes cause wow fucked itself

everyone migrated
So they jumped shitp


we got wow immigrants now
you on asmon's server or sum? xD
It's like that everywhere
Making a new character 
mine never goes above 100 so far
You’re on Aether, same DC as asmon, ton of people trying to get into chocobo racing with him
So the queue is stupidly long I guess
im saving 2 fantasia for the bunny boi and for if i wanna go back xD
I’ve never had above 50, crystal malboro
you a girl?
I'm a guy 
No wait I'm a girl
only girls who play female viera are cool

#beginner-lounge y'all
Sorry 
Hi all! I have an odd question. I'm from EU, but i don't speak Russian or French or not even German, what server i should pick? OR can i pick a NA Data Centre and play in NA server (would it be a big lag for me? )? I assume the NA time zones for events re not in my favor, but at least i can understand what the chat says 🙂
my bad 
most EU servers are predominately english. notable standouts are shiva/moogle
So trading one Exarchic Gear = 1 Certificate?
if its HQ
no, the amount of tokens needed for that slots is the amount you'll get from exchanging it (high quality that is)
its piece to piece
For thst piece
Oh wow
so if you exchange a HQ exarchic armguards of scouting in
you'll get 33 tokens
which is how much you need to augment the gloves
HQ weapon/chest/legs give 42 and give you the 520 upgrade along with the rain cost
you can talk to hillicen in eulmore to see how much everything gives/needs
Thanks for clearing that up guys, so it's pretty worth to get that upgrade
Q: I'm on the first bit of the resistance weapon chain for my RDM weapon. I also have bought a GNB resistance weapon using the thavnairian sands for 250 poetics tomestones each. If i collect 20 of each Memory, and hand them in to get my RDM weapon up, do i lose the ability to have those memory items drop?
if you want to be most efficient of it, get the cheapest pieces from different classes that gets you the amount of certs you need
Is there any way to stock dyes besides carrying them in your inventory if i still want to be able to use them ? is there like a glamour dresser for it ?
you'd need to pick up teh quest again to be able to earn the memories
Not really but you can stick them in your chocobo saddlebag if you don’t want to use bag space
dont believe so. games coding keeps them tradeable so no "wallet" available
i think crystals are the only thing that has no inventory space that's still tradeable besides gil
If they are in the chocobo saddlebag are they still useable when i decide to glamour my stuff or do i need to take it out ?
Nothing is directly usable in your saddlebag to my knowledge
can i have that AND also progress my rdm resistance weapon at the next stage too?
yep
If you plan on changing dyes constantly just use glamour plates, you can dye the plate and you only need to do it once per plate
you can have several steps of the relic going on at once
God that sucks
thanks both of you for the information 
literally whati was doing the past few weeks is having the last 3 steps of the relic ongoing
Dumb question. I put glamour on, is there a way to flip between my base outfit and glamoured versions, or would I need to out right remove the glamour?
so i could effectively double dip on two of them
i recently bought the game off of G2A and got told to redeem it off the FFXIV site, any clue where the page to redeem the product code could be? i can't seem to find it
thanks ^^
you'd have to use glamour dispellers to remove the glamour each time you wanted to go back to the base outfit
but you can atleast quickly remove the whole glamour by clicking on the last button on the glamour plate menu
That's lame. Sometimes I wanna look cool, sometimes I wanna look cute 😦
and it'll let you select the slots you wanna dispell
ok since beginners-lounge is a clusterfk and a half I'll ask here. I just finished shadowbringers msq, i'm 80, i don't have a fc, I don't know what to do next. any hints please?
Would I be missing anything if I level straight to 80? Is there any reason to stop at 60/70 and do other content?
keep doing msq, start the relics, do the nier alliance raids, or the eden raids,
Did you do nier, sorrows of weryt and Eden?
Buy some HQ i510 gear and pick exactly whatever you want to do
I finished msq.
Glamour plates let you switch between appearances easily but only in cities
all the way through 5.55?
Anyone else ?
yes
What's the fastest way to level up a new job after the first? Is it still 10-50 PotD and 60-70 HoH on top of daily roulettes?
!faq altlvlguide
If you're trial you can't log in while the servers are full
Im not
Then just log in like normal
then you should be able to log in like normal
telling someone "do what you want to do" who doesn't know what he can do or what even are the options is not quite helpful
Your character not showing is simply due to server congestion
ok thats different
!faq contentunlock
!faq contentunlock
Literally the entire game is open to you
See all the stuff you can unlock
Nvm got in now
I DONT KNOW WHAT IT OFFERS. Hence my question.
Do Eden and nier if you want
iirc 4004 is an issue on SE's end
have you restarted your game? i had that error the other day
how long does the 100% exp boost last after character creation on a world?
@tacit stirrup tl;Dr
Get to 510 first so you can clear all item level blocks. The fastest way is by buying Exarchic gear off the market board.
If you don't want to spend or don't have the gil, you can start on Eden with your basic 430 gear. You might need to grind the first 3 level 80 dungeons for accessories.
90days since character creation
Once you're at 430 or so, you can start doing Eden raids for tokens to get to 450, as well as spending your Allegory tomes for 490 gear.
do I get teleported to the map of a guildhest?
I've noticed that my tap targetting will maintain the auto attack if a previous monster was killed... is there a way to prevent this? I don't want to pull unncessary mobs as phys ranged...
Yes, because tank swaps.
yes? tank swaps are common in high end content.
yes, it is useful in savage raids and extreme trials where tank swapping is necessary
In more difficult content, if you take a tank buster without using hallowed ground or swapping, you will probably die
Because of either the sheer damage or the debuff after it
Or both
or for memes
So this is strictly used in raids only
Trials too
So i dont have to put it in my hotbar right now
Extreme trials, Savage and Ultimate raids
feel free to shirk to your healer friends and turn off tank enmity for max hilarity
Can ignore it till i do raids
should i grind extreme garuda / ifrit / titan for anything other than the mounts? and the points thing
naw the only good loot they drop is the mounts
if you want to craft their glowy weapons, you can get the mats for those too, but that's about it
how hard is healing
wdym by hard
Are there any differences between the data centers?
No
Just that Crystal is a little more RP centered than the others
That's it
All servers are equal in the content they do
Which server is the most populated?
Server population doesn't really matter
No. This would also be the wrong channel for a joke like that too
Because servers open and close so often
And their population fluctuates
Also you play with people across the datacenter
warning taken ty
Is there a guild recruitment area in this discord? I am new and ready to buy it but want a cool group to play with as I feel very bored and alone now
why did i lose my flower status? i didnt even finish 5.4 yet
#recruitment-primal in your case
i'm at 493ilvl
returner status lasts for 7 days of playtime iirc
after that it's gone
It's not tied to progress like the sprout status
feels bad, lost all the benefits, thank you
What's the best food for gathering?
im about to buy the game, can i transfer from square enix to steam later on for free? (ik i cant do steam to SE) all i hear so far from sites is "do not buy it on steam"
Is there a faster way of leveling my THM to get to Black Mage if I’m past heavensward?
no, just buy it on steam if you want to have the game on steam
ty
It’s just lvl 4 right now

Hi! My friend had been playing on PC, and recently bought a ps4 license that he registered to his service account- except when he tries to play the game on ps4, it asks him to create a new service account, and won't let him log into the one he already has. Anyone know how to fix this? Customer support isn't answering his ticketd
i kinda do just so i can get a lot of hrs played on the profile. but dont think i can launch multiple games at the same time next to it?
Damn 
Once you buy the game you're locked to that platform
why not, of course you can run multiple games at the same time on steam
If you buy off Se you're locked to se
and also - i regret nto buying it on steam for similar reasons, just buy it there and dont bother with "hur dur you're locked into the platform"
How have y'all found the tech support system? It's been like a week since I've put in a ticket, and I can't even start playing unless I can get the tech help
true, i guess subsription thru steam cant be harder either or their mogstation whatever that is
Everyone subs through mogstation
ohh
the 16 levequest are per week or day?
How do I battle Mutamix for a Triple Triad battle? Apparently he has his own card but I don't know how to get it to start.
You get 3 per 12 hours
Is there any new player in odin wanna help in game?
You get that from F’hobhas
If you mean the Mutamix card, it comes from F'hobas instead:
Ah shit I didn't even register the name on the site cause he had the same coordinates, My bad!
do I have to learn past recipes?
How does attack magic potency damage calculations work? Is there a reference for all the combat mechanics somewhere?
not book 7
Which book? Magicked bed is from Master Carpenter 7, maybe you picked up Master Carpenter 8 (VIII)?
Eyoo... What is this queue on Eu? 3 days back it was like 30-50, now 500??
yeah I did book 8
!faq stats
Thank you thank you! 😁
welp looks like i'm done with ff14 then
Just know a 200 potency hit always deals double damage than a 100 potency hit
refining my GNB relic, is there a specific stat prio?
So I'm playing rogue right now, are positionals a thing yet, or is that specifically for ninja/monk when I get there?
You get your first positional on monk at lv1
But your first ninja one is lv26
!action bootshine
!action aeolian edge
Oh so don't worry about it while still on rogue, nice thanks.
You will
You're still rogue until 30
I just got done with the base Stormblood MQS and a lot of things opened up like the Omega and the Ivalice stuff. Should I just contuine with the Stormblood patch quest or do one of those?
Omega isn’t required, Ivalice is required if you’re interested in eventually doing the ShB relic quests
if you want to do them you can
Otherwise you can safely skip
personally I would do them, they're a good break from the msq
How do I battle Sezul Totoloc for a Triple Triad match? He keeps saying:
[20:32]Sezul Totoloc: Bother Sezul with games, do you!? Squawk! Let chief concentrate on new airship design idea, or use featherless one's hide for sails, Sezul will!
Do I have to start the quest he has...?
Ixal beast tribe
Thanks for the help everyone
Do I just have to start Ixal beasttribe quests or get to a certain stage with them?
Max it
Fuck me...
Welcome to hunting cards
But the end result is worth it...right?
Writer of EW did recommend doing omega tho, so relevance maybe ||also a boss in the benchmark looks like a souped up omega||
It tells you
fk me i dont have anything else to play right now and ff14 is just so damn confusing eh
In the item Description
With what words does it tell you
*This most ordinary of fish has become rather extraordinary thanks to being bathed in otherworldly aether, giving it a fetching blue tinge.
[Suitable for display in aquariums tier 3 and higher.]
[Suitable for printing on large canvases.]*
※ Zone: The <Emphasis>Endeavor</Emphasis>

Water you confused about
how do i get up there lol
Making a print of the fish on a canvas
It's very straightforward
It’s the thing that pops up when you first catch a certain fish
Explore around
can u use super-potion in PoD?
Yes
are cross-world linkshells actually cross-world? like can i chat with people playing in NA servers?
how do you link a skill in chat?
World, not data center
I'm currently a boosted 70, and want to gather up dungeon gear that I can turn in for GC currency + FC exp. What would be the best dungeon to solo for that?
oh so data center > world
i thought it was the opposite
World's are the name for servers
Data centres are clusters of servers
Can't interact with other data centres yet
yo any good suggestions for a hood glam that Dragoons can wear?
Have y'all used the tech supports? How fast have you found it?
Back when I used it, live chat existed
But now phone support is probably your best bet
about as slow as molasses in fargo in february
Shit
this is probably an annoying question, but are there any FCs out there willing to let me join just to dye my chocobo and then leave again? im willing to pay for the service, i just hate talking to strangers online but i wanna dye my fella
I accidentally deleted some important shit and don't know how to redownload it
theres usually about 3 spamming shouts in major cities at any time
Or just go buy a apartment
anyone know? 😄
For 500k
What does the "A recurring problem" quest give me? It says "no reward", yet it appears under my main story in the corner, so it must be important
if its game files and you aren't on steam, you pretty much have to redownload the game
Required for the story
It's the hard mode primals
Oh okk
i'm trying to use keyboard and mouse for ps4 ff14, everything works except for WASD and like ctrl- both of which work on other devices.
anybody know what might be happening?
I've tried to redownload it but some files don't seem to be included
If I buy FFXIV on steam, can I use the official launcher to login?
no
Or do I have to redownload the game off of Steam + rebuy it?
I don't have dx11
update windows
Not on windows
Hello Everyone
I'm thinking about buying this version of FF14 for the ps4
I have no idea what to buy, there are so many options.
What is the right way to go?
i got my ninja to 80 (second class) but i dont get the option to buy job specific armor from the tempest
There’s a FAQ command for it I can’t remember but Starter edition is required to subscribe
Following that you buy an expansion
!faq buy
Are there any armors in the game with colors we don't have the dyes to match with?
do the rolequests that start in the crystarium, need to complete all of the chain for melee dps
thank you
then that's support for whatever you're trying to play it on
wdym?
Yeah so buying the complete edition on PS store will be the right way I assume?
if you aren't playing on windows you need to look into specific support for whatever platform you're trying to play on
But it seems like nobody plays on mac, most likely because they're sane
imo, yeah- unless you don't end up liking the game enough to even reach the expansions and their content, so like 10$ down the drain
but if you DO enjoy it you save like 30$ (or 40? i forgot) so big worth
yup, you need to get into mac support channels for FF14
Sorry, where do those exist? I'm a bit ignorant
I have the MSQ quest "The Light of Inspiration", but I have to complete my level 80 Bard quest first, but the guy who is supposed to give that quest is not giving me a quest?
google ff14 mac tech support
or google the error you're getting and add mac
!faq rolequests
What are Role Quests?
Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.
At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.
I can't find where I left off!
No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests
need to do the rolequests that start in the crystarium
You need the physical dps quest
crafters are generally quicker to lvl than jobs right?
still looking for an answer if anyone knows-
make sure they are bound properly and you aren't on a controller option
For Necromancer title - can you start at floor 51 or do you have to progress starting from 1?
From the start
thanks
i wanna do the 60 - 70 samurai quest line in one go do i need to have a certain progession in the msq to finish everything? im at lvl 64 msq rn
WASD for up, left, back, and right respectively. but if i click and try to bind any of those to another commands they wont even be inputted, nothing happens
should i remove fire when i get fire 3 as a blm ?
is there a way to know if free trial login lock has been lifted? i dont wanna repeatedly relaunch ffxiv each time the game tells me "you cant login while theres a queue"
ive started the trial and im trying to start a new character but every world (eu) says it is not accepting new characters. am i missing something?
no. Fire will still be used at level 80
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
thank you 🙂 no game for me then!
Basically too many people online
is there a LFG channel?
is there like a tracker for when i can login to my world as free trial player again
the game keeps exiting itself each time i get the "you cant login when queue" message
No
I purchased 2 extra retainer from the mogstation, but I can't hire more than 2? what did i do wrong?
I want to try and have fun with blue mage but my main is lvl 64 and i have just starded heavensward - is it too early?
Might need to wait a bit for it to activate
Actually think you had to rwlog
lemme try
@leaden ginkgo mainly just access to all the far east zones, iirc. Ruby Sea is the most important one?
Is there a site like Eorzea Collection, but for character designs instead of glamors?
After finishing the last dungeon for ARR, can I just skip the credits or is there something special that happens?
You can skip
How much time would it take to farm a Tsukuyomi weapon? And what are the steps?
just the base weapon, or the one with the particle effects?
Tsukuyomi's Moonlit Ephemeris
I unlocked warrior but apparently I'm the only moron in the world that can't figure how to swap to it cuz I've been googling for 20 minutes
so my friend want the eternal bonding mount but I already have it. Can she buy the platinum only for her and I just get standard or do I have to get platinum as well?
did you put your axe in your hand
what counts as a small/medium/large FC on a server like cerberus?
and then did you put your job stone in your stone slot
Does it have to be a warrior axe?
You can desynth the dropped weapons for a shot at the ephirmis
And not a marauder axe
they're the same axe
So you need crafters leveled?
but also the job stone is important
I took it off and put it back on and im still a marauder
It’s a crafted weapon
Equip job stone
Ohh ty
Other options buy off MB or get the mats and pay someone to craft it for you
Anyone know the answer to my question?
both need platinum
The lower one overrides
defaults to the cheapest plan
I see ty
Does having a much higher desynth score then required do anything or once you pass the listed recommendations it's all the same?
does anybody know of a guide to easily farm the red(?) scrips needed to buy Crystal sands for the anima relic step.
I already have a crafter at 58
Is there a site like Eorzea Collection, but for import/exporting character appearances instead of glamors? I'm really bad at making character designs. I normally just go default unless I see a character appearance that catches my eye.
higher chance for the rare/better desynth items
Ty^^
Is there an option somewhere to change my player health bar so it shows barriers similar to the party bar?
No
Can someone explain to me how collectables work? am i only able to turn in certain ones at certain times? :o
i keep wiping with pugs on the last boss in PotD what can u do?
the collectables list for the house of splendors doesn't change
the only list that changes is the custom deliveries list for the week
Guys is it normal that the shiva server is full? I can’t join in since 5 hours on free trial and didn’t planned to buy the game to solve the problem before I finished hw :/
Whats the best way to get from lvl 56 to 60 fast. Ive done my daily roulettes already.
fates on your level and dungeons on your level
If you absolutely need-want to hit it today, hit the most on-level dungeons you can.
Between fates and Dungeons. which one would u say is better and takes the least time but gives me good xp.
what role are you playing?
Samurai
Potd
then potd or fates
potd?
palace of the dead

Im new to game i had a question, i have gear from a quest and it says "Press ctrl to display high quality item information" does that mean my item is HQ or there is a variant of the item I COULD get in future?
ty
Very confused
can you send a screenshot
not sure what exactly you mean
sure one sec
does running out of time end a necromancer run or just mean you restart that floor set?
@boreal storm okay thanks 😄
The green bar that was linked to my experience bar has disappeared. Is that normal?
just means you dont have a rested bonus anymore
if you have the moon next to your exp bar you generate a resting bonus
Oh yeah I have the moon. The green bar is just gone now
Is that time based to have it?
i can run the labirynth raid but i feel like i should watch a video first? seems daunting 
Lol No
I’ve only played a couple time of my sub but this I the first time I’ve seen it gone
these are the items im comparing, one has a option to hit ctrl key, would the weathered ones be better since the leather aren't HQ? seems to have more bonuses. Again sorry im noob af
So I accidentally sold my blacksmith hammer
buy it back
Where do I get a new one?
What am I looking for? Its not battlecraft supplier at least
Oh wait I found the weapons dude
Leather has higher item level so better, and if you craft it it could be HQ
This is one of those rare cases where the weathered one is better
what am i supose to do to unlock novice network ?
can you change your PVP hud when out of pvp?
You can just keep using the weathered one
Wolf den pier
ty!
Accessories really only provide stats, they don’t give defense
One last question and ill leave yall alone lol, when do I learn crafting? or is it something I just do on my own? Like is there an intro quest to it
So when comparing, just check vitality and your main stat
what are some good BLU spells to try to learn?
what lvl are you on?
Ty akira i really appreciate the answer
np, but for crafting, in general you just decide which class you want to learn, then google to find the class guild, then go there, there should be a blue quest that teaches you it
so just lvl up first
Alright
how does that xp earing work you get from pre ordering end walker? i dont understand the description, do i need a character lvl 80 to recive the benifits?
Can i use like, max lvl BLU to farm extremes quickly? Old content ofc
@ripe hound By class you mean like maraduar and what not?
does anyone play the game but just skip cutscenes?
nope i watch everything theyre wonderful so far
well you can use any class max lvl for that
hi, what is the difference between high resolution ui settings and default ui size?
what does this mean? I can't log in
server under high load
you should still be able to login
Yeah, but for crafting it’s like, blacksmith, goldsmith, etc.
Could someone thats from primal help my Blue mage get to at least level 50? I would really appreciate the help
Rare, but there can be a few.
Strongly recommends the story tho
it tells me I can't join the queue as a free trial, even though I could before
Read the pins
me
ahh, freetrial has no priority on queue since they dont pay
I am a lvl 16 Arcanist but now i would like to join the Archer Guild... Is there a way to get to Gridania from Limsa Lominsa as a newbie?
Is there a best choice? Im playing a Marauder
Msq
All of them
Not really, since crafting in FFxiv is all interconnected, the advice is often “just level them all lel”
Awesome yall been a great help! thanks guys
can use it from lvl1 till you are 80 the stats it gives scals to your lvl
so there is no way now... i need to proceed the msq?
Correct
msq basiclly unlocks anything important
thanks!
Yup MSQ is mandatory
got it thanks all
how do i unlock novice network ?
so on any job it works then meaning i should probably pre order then ?
need an invite from a mentor
works on any battle job but not on crafter/gatherers
Go to Limsa or any big city, ask a mentor
ok thanks
Mostly depends on how much spare money you have and if you feel like you will definitely play the game next expansion
hey all - is the Recruit a Friend campaign over at this point in time? I'm trying to find the button
It's still on
It's just more pain to find than it ought to be
what the fack, my friends aren't seeing the button in their Your Account page, i'm ready to reup my sub and my free 30days just lapsed
my account page says i'm eligible to get these recruitment rewards
Im missing 250k to reach 50 and continue my msq. What would be the fastest way to get that xp?
Level roulette or highest dungeon (aurum vale)
Did you do your daily leveling roulette?
yup
Are you DPS or tank healer?
dps dragoon
Hard question then...
Didnt unlocked it yet. Might do it now
I guess just queue for the highest level dungeon you can do
Yeah, just go unlock it
It’s a fun dungeon
Okie, ill google where is the blue quest for it
Have fun!
Did your friend give you their code already? I've never been on the receiving end myself, but I think it's just a text entry box on the page where you buy subscriptions
Vesper Bay, there's a dude that hands out a series of side dungeon quests
we found it, it's under Additional Services. I couldn't see it since my account is inactive due to sub ran out
thank you though!
Np, enjoy the rewards
W a l p
Electricity went down while mid downloading expansion stuff
Can this feck me up and corrupt files?
Would i need to reinstall or repair or no need?
ty
The installer will know what it needs to do. It might be fine, or it might need to fix some stuff, but it's very hands-off
About the upcoming events. There is any? Also i didnt finished the Horn Heist, does it give anything useful?
So if something did happened, it itself will solve it?
I have a weird request, but here goes:
Does anyone know of a way to keybind something to toggle holding down right-click (character + camera control, or combat camera, etc). Such that, when it is toggled, I could format my main mouse buttons to a keybind, but when it's toggled off, the mouse buttons retain their normal controls?
is the dark knight questline important for shadowbringers?
It’s one of the best storylines so you’d be missing out if you skip it.
ah kk
Probably. And if it can't solve it itself, it'll let you know with an error message that you can use for more details
i would do it anyway lol
ninja or sam is easier?
I turned off the other player animations so that my ps4 doesnt over heat but it overheated when I did a Cyrtsal quest alliance raid. What do I do now?
Do I turn off my animations too?
do I need Mining to get Salt? Or can it be vendor-ed?
Is there a way to turn off enemy animations? Lol
No
Only some salts can be vendor purchased. Most is gathered by miners
So I need to add mining to the gathering jobs for cooking lmao
Also, do i really have to synthesize 1 at a time? It's 1 over 127, but the arrow does nothing for me..
whats with the servers why cant i log peasants
I'm trying to buy shadowbringers but it wont let me check out. I've tried it on 3 different browsers on 2 different devices and the same thing keeps happening. I click checkout in my cart and it briefly shows the payment options and then just disappears and I can't do anything
anyone have any ideas whats going on?

How does the gurada mount drop work? im farming rn for it and id hate to have it taken
depending on what lvl you are you can run it solo
wha 😮
You roll on mounts in extremes
If the world is too full, then you'll be either put in a queue (if you pay) or just not allowed to log in (if youre free trial)
well that sucks
Any job at lv80 can easily solo arr extremes
im only lvl 51 😦
you can do some at lvl 70 too
i just want a cool pony man 😦
for the garuda egi, does assault 2 slipstorm stack? PST
tfw ignored 
kinda racist ngl
search for farming partys, they usally play till everyone gets it
From different Summoners yes
Using EA 2 again just makes a new one
And removes the old
well, Square just wanted to make sure that people that pay can actually play the game
@faint flarehow do I tell how far along the first one is, dot on enemy?
might hold off a bit bc they got that cool polar bear mount in 5 days
It's on garuda as buff
@faint flarethat sounds difficult to track, wish we could use addons
Thanks, I try~
It's only 9 seconds, so half of the Assaults Cooldown

yeah this website is fucking broken
how much money are they raking in and they cant even have a website that works

anyone know how lost action "lost assassination" works? i tried using it but i dont get the buff that s upposed to give me 40% more dmg and crit rate for 18seconds

if you noticed it says "140 when executed from a target's rear"
You don't need to be standing in the correct spot to get your boosts
true north makes it so that if you hit the skill when say at the front of the target, you'll still get that bonus
oh got it
ty
also, anyone got that image with positioning?
!faq positionals
btw do i have to start at 1 or 21 is ok?
thanks!
so start any floor is count
Is there a way to mass-synthesize items? Trying to craft a dramatic amount of Table Salt, but the exhaustive nature of it right now...
You get quick synth at level 10 or 15, but it’s not good if you need HQ items
Yes, when you hit lv15(?)
It’s also bad for experience
In any DoH class
oh okay, grind away i shall..
its 10
parse means a player right?
No
op
It a dps log
Can you spam extreme trials for the mounts or do you get locked out after 1?
hi if i want to buy the game now is it ok to buy the complete edition or should i wait until endwalker releases?
Cool ty
Buying complete now is best if you want to play Endwalker stuff right when it comes out
!faq buy
nice, thanks
how do i bind ability to the double tap trigger function ?
hey guys can i advertise my stream ingame or thats a nono? 😄
Put the skills on the crossbar set that grabs the skills from
Put skills on whatever hotbar the double tap is looking at
You can change what it's looking at in character configuration > hotbar > custom
AFAIK it doesn’t break any rules, but people might find it annoying.
i see thank you
Should I constantly push the button when it's on a cooldown? Is that how you should play in F14?
For example I push 1, so it's on 2.4 second cooldown so I keep clicking 2 for 2.4 second til it activate.
why do not alot of people like playing as dancer?
You don't need to, there's the skill que
well yeah i know but i wasnt gonna spam it but thank you 😛
People do, it's braindead as shit
Pressing within the last half second or so queues the skill press
I see it fucking everywhere
What you mean skill que?
if you press in the last ~quarter of the gcd spin it will queue
what do you become after sprout ?
once the gcd goes off you can just press your 2 ogcds if youre double weaving right after the other and it should queue both of them
A non sprout
So after I click 1 and goes into a 2.4 second cooldown, I just need to click 2 once then it'll use 2 all on it's own after 2.4 second cooldown is up?
Is that how que works?
im playing as a paldin adn that so far feels brain dead
I had a question in regards to User Macros.
As a Summoner, I'm trying to make one that uses Swiftcast and then 1 second later casts Resurrection. But when I tried using it in battle the Resurrection never went off, only the Swiftcast. Is there something I did wrong here?
don't use swiftcast res macros
If you’re doing any action when Resurrection would occur, it simply doesn’t happen
And yeah it’s not great to pair two different skills in a combat macro
ayyyyyyyyyy
Best to keep Swiftcast out of the macro
Especially with the fucking chat message first
I suppose, but for the most part it's really hard for me to press the buttons mid combat.
It's already more than a second just for me to press the two buttons one after the other.
nice
That's spamming waiting to happen
@obsidian patio Ive made it up to the crystal quests with my ps4 overheating but it does it during the crystal quest alliance raid. Do I turn off my own animations to help my ps4 not overheat?
What’s the BiS gear for blue mage?
Swiftcast = Alt + 1
Resurrection = ctrl + 3
It's basically already a full 1.5 seconds for me to do that versus pressing the macro.
Next garuda ex i got into the whistle came up and i got the role 😮
that doesn't matter if the macro does not work half the time
Perhaps, but that's what I'm trying to figure out.
What's stopping it from working? If I'm standing still the whole time, I just want to know what's keeping it from going off.
Your own actions shouldn’t be causing such problems. When was the last time you cleaned out your PS4?
how do i get the lvl 50 ninja armor set- i am 80
Calamity salvager if you want it again
For me personally, I have 4 different hot bars that go 1 through = but with shift, ctrl, and alt as modifier. Though I only use 1 through 6 because my fingers can't go that far.

My current hotbar setup
Why the fuck is ruin all the way over there
Because I never use it
…wait that command is outdated as fuck
what hotbar is cross hotbar 2 - left and right linked too?
I never did it before. I dont want to do it myself out of fear I will permanently mess it up and Im kind of afraid of a professional messing it up too

Ruin 2 is less damage than ruin
I never really thought about it. I just figured Ruin II was nice because it's only slightly less damage to run around.
That less damage REALLY adds up
ah...
"Oh it's just 20 potency"
Yeah but you use it
200 times
That's 20x 200
Of lost potency
That's alot
Maybe, but how I view it is.
It's a 12.5% loss in damage, that is true.
But compared to how often I have to move out of AOE's during battle, that more than makes up for it.
There’s a decent amount of videos online that I used to clean it out. If you want to play it safe just use one of those air duster cans on the vents
Just make sure the PS4 is completely off and unplugged
Plus ruin 2 will change to ruin 4
When yoy get your ruin stacks
And you'll need to manage those properly
Otherwise it's a significant lost
Maybe I have been playing wrong this whole time....
How I've been playing Summoner has been.
Start of fight: Miasma into Bio, immediately Energy Drain + Fester, followed by spamming Egi Assaults since they deal more damage. Followed finally by using Ruin II and continuing to spam it while keeping Lucid Dreaming up.

Yes you have with ruin 2
If you don't know a fight, keep 1 stack of each egi assaults
To use them as movement
Or for weaving
if reaper will share LNC gear, will it be able to wear the craftable dreadwyrm set ?
You have to open up the console and spray the air duster can on the vents right?
Yoy can literally do entire fights without ever touching ruin 2
Especially when you get ruin 4 stacks
Yes
Huh. In that case, I'll start playing as such. Thank you for the advice!
Some of the more in-depth videos take more of the PS4 apart and use a cotton swab
One of summoner ls goals is eliminating ruin 2 uses
Guys I’m trying to augment my exarchic gear and I’ve done this before but for some reason it won’t let me buy the augmented choker I traded, she just yoinked my item and i can’t buy it now
ESPECIALLY WHEN ruin upgrades to ruin 3
Ok
And becomes a more significant dps lost
You can check Akhmorning.com or weskalber for summoner levelling stuff
Akhmorning.com in particular is the summoner bible
Yeah, I'm Level 54 and still haven't done my job quests for Painflare and Ruin III

I'll get it eventuallyyyyy
@faint flare do you know what i should do?
Pins has a guode for augmenting exarchic
Yea i know how to do it but for some reason it’s bugged now
New to the game, leveling a White mage lvl 41. anything special to think about or what not to forget while leveling ?
Not really... Maybe do levelling roulettes to keep ahead of the story curve
Especially since it jumps from 46 to 49
Which catches many people out
Also job quests naturally
Job quest as in like the guild/class main quests ?
So I finished 5.2, did the eden quest, but there aren't any other around. Do I just keep going with msq?
Thanks
Cause story reasons
is the any way to get unidentified bones etc.. other than tomestones
Ywah, it's odd cause it doesn't tell ya
I am at max level so is there any reason to try out palace of the dead on my main or go in straight with my level 20 alt?
Beast tribes
Do it with your alt so you can get xp
Your main will get literally nothing
No glamour pieces, mount or minions?
If i leave Potd do i lose all the progress? like what floor i got to
You have to restart from the last checkpoint
Which would be the floor you began that set on
It will warn you if it doesn't
Do you only get 2 rows of abilities in the UI or can I add more?
hey so i guess a while back i sold my dancer weapons or deleted them how do i get them back?
Go to Idyllshire and get new ones for poetics
Im trying to do the New path for resistance quest but i cant take it, i need any requeriment?
You can add up to 10 hotbars
Where is that? And is that part of the config I need to locally backup?
How do you guys level up your DPS jobs? For tanks and healers I just run dungeons, but for DPS que is like 20 minutes
I've just been questing. So, I think people save non-MSQ quests
You can do squadrons or palace of the dead for dps
Character config>hotbar settings
palace of the what

Besides having done the Loathsome memory step for that weapon, no.
is there any armour with like cloaks/capes?
General question... is it a bad thing that I find myself using my mouse to click abilities that go beyond 1-4?
hismena only sells armor
It's fine as long as it's working for you and you're not losing damage/etc because your movements are too slow
Bertana
Is there a way to see if my slow rendering is due to connection, ram, or gpu?
Shire tank armor has a cape
most of your abilities should be keybound but I think it's okay to have big cooldowns or skills you don't want to press accidently on click locations
The glam gear you buy with wolfs marks, currently "late allagan", does it change with seasons or expansions etc?
no
new stuff gets added to wolf marks every now and then, but whats on the pvp vendors now is always going to be on the pvp wolf mark vendors
does anyone know if if i add game time during my free 14 days, will the 30 days be added on top of whatever remains from my trial? or will i be swapped automatically to my 30 day sub
the pvp stuff that changes is the top 100 feast rewards
free time is always used first
As your number of abilities and skill speed increase it will become fundamentally impossible to click everything and still remain even close to 'optimal'..especially if you have any moves off the GCD
Is doing POTD to level to 30 a good idea
What do you suggest then? Is there a primer on some basic concepts to getting used to hotkeys? I can do 1-6 and ctrl 1-6 but it gets difficult after that
use buttons like q, e, r, t, f, g, h, z, x, c, v

in addition to 1-6, crtrl, shift, etc
@glacial veldt the optimal keys are 123456qerfszxcv and then ctrl/shift/alt modifiers
and dont forget mouse buttons
https://i.imgur.com/yH3Lbi1.png there's a lot of keys you can use for keybinds
even more keys if you shift over your wasd to esdf
ok, so im safe to add a sub? i wanted to buy something and it didnt allow me to unless i was subbed
should be fine, ye
i'm used to playing with movement being just qwe for strafe left/right and forward, no backpedal, it's closer to number keys as well
honestly unbind backpedal
what is a good way to rack up crystals?
Yeah like kaelwryn said, and you can use shift and such for modifiers to have more hotkeys
It will feel weird at first to hotkey everything, but after playing w it for some time it will become muscle memory and your level of play will skyrocket
mouseturning is much more optimal than backpedal
How hard is memoria miseria ex unsynced with 470+ gear ? Is it better to use duty finder, party finder or look somewhere else ? I want to be able to dye some of these sets
For the kojin beast tribe i unlocked it but is there a quest i need to do before i can accept the quest? it shows a red locked quest over the dailys
oh
mostly weapons, and main hands for crafters/gatherers
Have you done all previous beast quests from yesterday
oh WEAPONS lol i was sitting here like "we have an armorer???"
duh
do they make the Trials weapons?
nopee i thought maybe i had to wait a day to do them cause this was the same yesterday aswell
so for how long do i have to wait for the server i want to play on to open for new characters? got friends that play there so i want to main on it
For certain jobs
if the crafted version of the trial weapon is predominately metal, then yeh
good enough for me! thanks for the info
blacksmith will most likely craft it
Do we know what precisely "Data Center Travel" is going to mean? Will I be able to play with people in Japanese servers from the EU servers?
when you talk to the npc does it say anything
They craft Nin, Sam, war, mch, and pld iirc
no, atleast not initially. DC travel is going to be at the start between region datacenters. So i.e if you're on Elemental (JP) you'll be able to travel to Gaia (also jp)
Travel between DC in your region. You wont be able to cross regions at first
this is what it says my class is also above the level
So then you do have beast tribe daily in your quest log somehwere
you cannot have any beast tribe daily, even if its not kojin specifically
so either complete what is in your log or abandon it
ohhhh okay tyy! i had a gathering beast tribe quest i got by accident
it works now o/
can you lock items so you dont accidenbtally sell them?
So I'm experiencing very slow load/rendering times. Should I try switching the proga from older ssd to newer ssd?
No, but you can buy things back from an NPC in case you sell something to them by accident. As long as you dont leave the zone (Or exit your retainer if you sold it to them)
Like so
best source for xp at level 63?
!faq altlvlguide
thanks
You can also make gear set items exempt from turn ins
Is weekly loot lockout still a thing? What's the best way of finding out which ones those are?
By “hide gear set items”
the only weekly lockout at this point is on the cracked clusters from paradigm bunker and ofc the 900 cap on revelations
Ah cool, thanks. No indicator for it on UI like in Timers though, is there?
There's a indication on the duty finder page for paradigm that you've received weekly reward
and the revelation is on the currency window
Does the voice acting get better, in ARR. Yikes.
New VAs afterwards
ohhh gotcha "Reward already received", thanks again
If I dye a piece of clothing on a glamour dresser, will that dye be permanently on that piece? Like if i reglamour another item with that dyed clothing, will the clothing still be dyed?
what mount is this??
It’s below you, go into the building
go to the aetheryte plaza, there's stairs leading down
ah. nice jebait
Dyeing the item on the plate only dyes it for that plate.
ty
demi-ozma, its from baldesion arsenal in eureka. lv 70 content
Thanks! Never realized how important it is, spoiled by new games.
ooh, thanks
If you want the dye to affect all future uses of it, dye the item itself in the dresser storage
is endgame content like wow where you need a clan to do hardest difficulty or something for the best gear? or is it all random group finders? (idk if i need to be on the same server as friends to do the endgame content with them)
so if i dyed it like this, would all future uses of it be black?
Correct
