Yes
same with waymarks
Does anyone know why there female aura wearing tamamo in Yanxia?
Pvp marks are in the pvp profile
In PVP or PVE, you can use the "Signs" menu (from Party) to drag a "1" to your hotbar and use that manually.
Or you can make a macro to do it:
/mk target1 <t>
(Or <mo>, or <e1> for Feast, etc.)
Another question
I am an arcanist lv 18 just learnt the fester skill
but I can't seem to be able to use it in battle
hey, i just finished the RR base story and a bit of the 2.1-2.2 story and my main issue with it is the ratio off voiced vs unvoiced quest "cutscenes"
does that get better (more voiced cutscenes) in Heavensward?
Energy drain gives you the resources to use Fester
They're both off global abilities
Much better in Heavensward, you can tell they upped the budget. Also the voice acting gets better in HW in general.
Weave them via instant cast spells like bio or egi assault
i dont mind the voice acting i just cba to read 80-90% of the story for the next 100h+
Only important scenes are voiced, with a few others here and there
A vast majority is still unvoiced
That shit is alot of fucking money
I feel like they voice more later on compared to ARR, the barebones-est of the expansions; But, still true.
They do voice the expansions more than ARR
There is more Yes but the majority Is still unvoiced
Probably like 60-70%
Give or take
What does the blue X mean and why can't I equip it? (nvm I'm just too low lvl)
thats still a massive improvement thinking about it a bit more the base story is probably more than 90% unvoiced

Quick question about raids as I approach the end of shadowbringers.
I haven't been able to find a list of current raids, doesn't help that I can't hit most of the gaming sites on my work computer due to them being locked.
I just remember from WoW BC there was something like, okay you start in tier 4 and its these two places and then here for tier 5 etc...
As I look to find to an FC or static for raiding, just wanting to know what to look for and what to advertise for.
Thanks!
#kupo-bot-spam
There aren't really 'current raids' atm since we're in a big lull before an expansion
Eden's Promise (Savage) is the most current raid tier technically but they're pretty old
Eden's promise the final 4 raids of the Eden raid series is the current raid tier. The versions require the completion of the normal versions.
They require main story quest progress past at least 5.3.
In terms of finding a static it'll vary between data centers check the recruitment channel for your data center here and check #resources for data center specific discords
At this point an average item level of 520 is expected before you start doing the raids
Understand that. If someone wanted to get in a group and needed to start at the bottom, where would that be? Maybe that’s the better question.
how does "focus target" work and on what way can it help?
usually on a tank i've seen it doing
Ty both for the response!
Pretty sure a large part are still progging the latest tier
If I can fly in the map, but the person riding my mount cannot, will we still be able to fly?
amazing, thank you ^^
Don’t leave them in a place they can’t escape
haha (:<
That’s a dick move
Fucking do it
It's hilarious /s
I mean return and teleport exist so it's not the end of the world, also they have to be in your party in the first place
Basically it pops up an HP display on a target regardless of whether you're targetting it currently or not. Can be used as a healer to make it easy to target the tank quickly or as a DPS to keep track of boss HP while you're fighting adds or during downtime
what archer should focus on level skills, like strength, dex
if i have a tank as focus target and im targeting the boss, if I use a ogcd heal will the heal go to myself or the tank?
How come there is always a queue of like 5-50 people when you log in? I'm not complaining or anything, it takes like 10 seconds to get in so it's barely even a queue to begin with, I just think it's odd because of how consistent it is. I've never experienced anything like it, usually it's like an hour queue, or it's nothing hehe
Whoever you're targetting
Focus target doesn't change how targetting works
im targeting the boss
Then to.you
aight
Cuz the games popular
OGs remember when there wasn't a queue :>
It's longer on many other worlds, that's on the low end of the spike of growth lately
Focus target is just an additional target bar so you always see the boss hp, cast bar and debuffs regardless where they are or what you're targetting
better said would be that the game became more popular xD
Hello i'm new to the game and i dont know what i should do here, i dont know what's this code :/
i see thx
Nah, there was always a queue
Road to 70 😢
Tiny even then
I used to play on Ultros
yea, but i get queues of 200-500 in the evening and the game never had that
No queue there in 2016 lmao
It's the code you get when buying the game
But i want to try with the free version, so i've no code
where did you download from
free version from steam
Okok i'll do that ty
how did he die?
Like I said, I'm not talking about the queue itself but how consistent the length is. Always 5-50 players, never above or below which I find weird. You'd expect there to be a much bigger difference in queuetime on certain times of the day and week, but it isn't like that at all.
Probably blew himself up
😮
Blu mage shenanigans
Maybe square enix is just very good at managing servers
by his position he slipped and hit his head 
they seem to be, since they resolved the server problems in like 3 days
That sounds like something maya would say
maybe from being wet, in his pool clothes
any place i can test out lb ?
duty roulette
Explorer mode in dungeons
I've never used material into my gears b4, how do I put materia in it what materia I need add for SAM class?
!faq balance
Had meld priorities inside
guys for arr relic nexus what dungeon is best to spam unsynced?
tam tara/ifrit normal were the usual suspects as they are extremely quick to do (ifrit if you have good loading times, tam tara if not) but realistically if you're 80 you can do whatever and it'll probably die pretty quickly
i see ifrit it is then thank you
Yo, what's the best way to try and get people in my fc? I wanna expand a bit but... /shout in limsa hasn't been getting results
lodestone FC post or our #603040697884475393 I suppose
hey, new to astro, is there any reason not to always use minor arcana instead of play?
Maybe privet message people not in a fc friendly message….. how I joined mine
Minor arcana doesn't give you seals for divination
Yes. Minor arcana doesn't give seals for div
You minor arcana cards after getting your seals
You get 1-2 minor arcanas per 2m div
Get your 3 seals then minor arcana
You want your 3 seals ready for when divination is off Cooldown
So you can use it immediately
When you get a bit more experienced look into holding drawn cards for burst, but for now just get used to drawing and playing on the correct role
Does this "malesteom" patch ever end?
can you share quest with party memebers
No
Quests that involve killing things are party wide, so you will all get progress when killing things
Provided you're close
How do I know I've finished ARR and going to play the dlcs?
But you each have to individually pick up things and talk to people
You get a giant ass title screen
When you enter a expansion
The quests start requiring level 51 :p
Lol
You literally can't miss it unless you're skipping
They roll credits.
Even then you can tell by the quest music chanfes
And for expansions too right?
They say "it is a realm reborn"
Mmm
Oh I don't know, I am still in that.
Great thanks!
What part are you at?
I will finish the base story at proximity level50?
Im playing the base story level 20 right now
Second credits, giant title screen and quest music change...and quest xp goes to normal
Arr ends at 50
All post quests are lv50 with minimal xp
Oh you got a few quests to go.
I think most end at like 55 ish?
I personally haven't done arr story since... Arr
If I want to change my class I need to start from the beginning and do all the job quests again to unlock abilities for that weapon?
How long does it take to unlock the abilities
How?
start at a level higher than 1
Oh really!
They're big, but often considered much higher in quality
i am back after a looong break... i have a lvl 60 druid/whitemage - if i equip the Staff it "Transforms" me to a Druid instead of a Whitemage... how can i become WHM? the Staff is for DRU and WHM.... this is so confusing lol
The expansion content quality is undeniably more even (and higher in general) though
What is "dru"
Druid
I can't wait to play em. I've watched trailers on YouTube they look so amazing !!!
I hope they are big not short
to become whm
Oh wow til
The bottom right item in your character sheet
What language is that, anyway?

Yeah, that was why I'm so confused
@twilit arch so u are wrong lol

Is MSQ the fastest way to get to 50?

You will not do the MSQ?

I mean is there a fastest way to get to 50
Where? 😄 Can´t find the right settings ...

Disable fire wall
Are there wow equivalent of tier sets for raiding at endgame? Like stylized armor for each job?
I understand your question. But I'm asking is this your first time to play the game and you don't wanna do the main story?
it's blank screen now, waiting for new response rn.
Disable anti virus for the game
is there any chocobo breeders here can help me?
@lapis magnet https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-the-ffxiv-launcher-black-screen-problem-on-windows/ this might help ya
there are stylized armor for each job, every expansion each job will get a new version of artifact armor (AF gear). its generally one of the weaker sets in any given expac, but its used in the first few weeks of every expac. for ShB its the gear you get from doing the role quests
hey hey, just dropped the 50 garuda wpn, is there a trade option for it to get like the shiny upgrade from she shiva weapons? saw theres one garuda with feathers n stuff
You need to desynth it and hopefullly get demimateria of the vortex. It can be used in a crafting recipe to make the shiny version
I really just wabt to unlock redmage that's all
shiva and leviathan are the only two that you trade in for the shiny version. the others have crafted versions
shiva and levi*
Discover the yabby's weak point

Cheers mate
cant desynth it yet. what level of what do i need there?
is there liek a roll or dash to get outside of huge aoe?
crafter 30, need to do a quest in Ul'dah to unlock desynth
Certain classes have dashes or backflips.
oh ok thanks
Why cant i find the gravekeepers in bozja?
gravekeepers only spawn at night
alright ty
can you put Armoire or Glam Dresser in your own room?
hmmh where can I get one? I think I can't find it on the market board
its just called armoire, so should be able to search for it on the marketboard. its a crafted item
is there a channel in the server that is used for party finder or finding a group for raids? not exactly sure if this is the place to ask.
Okie will try to look for it again later. Thanks!
where do i exchange commendation rewards from?
the solution is stupid
I turned on cloudflare 1.1.1.1 to bypass the stupid initial connection.
does archer needs dex or strength
dex
dex
thumbs up
where do i get the commendation rewards from?
im at jonathan in old gridania, and its only for achievements
there are achivements for getting certain amount of comms, which you can claim those rewards from the achievement window
Jonathas only gives achievement certificates now
Which can be redeemed for a limited selection of rewards
P. S. Fucking autocorrect
Is dark knight playable in the free trial?
yes
Is there any "Quest log" or something that says how many quests have you completed for a specific region?
No
i need help
i have a gae bolg novus and I have maxed out my zodiac glass but i cant upgrade it :/
Is it obvious if you're having latency issues due to high ping? E.g., lag, skipping, freezes and fast-forwards? I assume so,, but that reddit thread about XIVAlexander made me suspicious. Reason I ask is I'm playing on an EU server from NA since that's where a few of my friends are playing since they couldn't create accounts on NA servers do to player load at the time. It seems perfectly fine so far.
the biggest thing is not being able to slide cast
I used to be in NA playing on primal.
the only one with strong connection, yet 200ms is still the norm 
My friend used my code 2 days ago, and I got my rewards, but they didn't, what do we do? double checked everything
friend code^
servers are kinda congested
they can try doing delivery request at the moogle mailman
ok!
its the 3rd button on the top of the interface
make sure you unequip the gae bolg, and talk to jalzhan and select "relic weapon novus enhancement"
thks so much
what's the best use for poetics tomestones in mid/endgame
is it possible to move game files to from HDD to SSD
yes
Ofc why not
Any option to do it or just drag the files?
uh...
Drag and drop
I usually install in my C: so 
I like to make the whole hard disk a (C:)
but definitely save a \SquareEnix\FinalFantasyXIV\game file for next time. Download speed sometimes sucks.
Only one partition for everything lol
My C: is 500GB, and it's half way full

Hey all. Any advice for someone looking to get into Extreme/Savage raiding? I don't have a static or anything

No I'm so poor
get into learning groups in Party Finder
accept that you won't clear until after a few wipes
When do u unlock wondrous tails?
same 
So far I've joined a lot of guilds that change your job "armor, crafting, etc..." do I have to care about it as a new player? (currently level 19) or is it better to use it later on?
wdym, you don't care about armor until level 50
dungeon gears are plenty enough
What should I look for in party finder? Being new to the style of raiding
You can unlock it when you enter idyllshire, and are lv60
Raid tab
Oh I mean if there was any use for low levels to craft armor and stuff
@blazing oriole guilds are just questlines for that specific job, just pick the job you want to level and work on it through the MSQ
So not until 50 then?
when you unlock the extreme/raid instance, for newer ones, there is always a couple of groups saying "learn/clear" or "farm"
but for old instance, you have to create one yourself
Guess I need to do one of those blue quests then
Ah, so look out for the "Learn" groups?
pretty much
yes its a blue quest called "keeping up with the aliapohs" @graceful sail
when you learn all the mechanics
join clear groups
get a few clears for confidence then you can join the farming parties. Mainly for gears/materials.
Thanks
Thanks for the advice all!
you don't worry too much about gears unless you are either level 50/60/70/80
dungeons gears are plenty enough, though you still need to run through the same dungeon a few times to get decent gears to survive.
crafting/gathering are entirely optional, and generally its recommended to wait until you're max lv to do crafter as it'll be much easier to level them when you've got a bunch of things unlock and have a decent amount of gil.
hello
do i just move the squareEnix file, from HDD to SSD?
how can i disable friendly buffs on party/raid frames? i would like to see only my hots/bufs and things to dispel from targets
crafting generally an all or nothing, as you will want to level them all together. they use materials from each other (barring culinarian which relies mostly on the gatherers for materials)
no idea how to do it
yeah, I think.
try it out first.
right click on the buff icons
oh wait
that's the wrong advice, sorry
i mean raid/party frames
idk
Should i try to copy it first
you can't disable those for party frame
instead of cut and paste
back it up at somewhere safe
then do move
sometimes i do not know which are mine, or these todispel are barely visible to me, perhaps it is matter getting used to it
those which are yours will have green numbers
the debuffs that can be dispell will have a white line at the top
others are white
okay
Is there a faster way to level DrK and AST to 50 than spamming leveling roulette?
do the highest level dungeon, shouldn't be spamming leveling roulette after you've gotten the daily bonus
Isn't palace of the dead endgame content?
no
nope
How do you unlock the 200 floor dungeon?
What does this mean? https://i.imgur.com/t6E5tA3.png
it's a deep dungeon instance that has its own stats, but after completing it also gives you real exp
can someone tell me what the horn rolette is i got it after i ordered a mount in the store but didn't get my mount
How can I unlock the deep dungeon? Im almost at end game, i should have access to it

Is there any reason I should I train my racing chocobo on anything lower than grade 3 feed?
Ty
I'm level 60, but that Lalafel has no quest.
more than likely already unlocked palace of the dead
to queue for it, you have to go to quarrymill and talk to the captain
Is there a way to disable Oath Gauge in the Hud layout?
but like i said tho, you should be doing the highest level dungeon (that's not 50/60/70) to level as a tank/healer since you have fairly quick queues
job gauges cannot be disabled no
I need help, ive completely maxed out my Seals at 50k (Current Max) is there anything worth buying to sell on the Market??
Aw~
I wanted to disable it to take a more clean looking screenshot. Oh well, lol XD
some suggested items to look at to sell @mighty spire
Press scroll lock to disable the entire hud
Oh ok. Thank you :D
Ive found em but it doesnt say they have value??
He means sell them on the market board to other players
Aye.. am broke 😅
you need to do a bit of your own leg work and look at the martkboard, see if those items are selling decently
use the item you got in your mooglemail to unlock the mount
Could somebody please help me with leveling a culinarian? I am stuck and I don't really understand what im supposed to do at this point

I've used up all my leve allowance and I am level 64 CUL now. How could I get it to 70?? Do I have to just spam crafting random items for exp at this point?

ok ill go do it now
Can I constantly do Castrum Meridianum and praetorium for the tomestones out of the duty finder. It says it rewards 200 for each
I have already done the daily
yea you can repeat them if you want, just do note you're going to have to deal with the unskippable cutscenes
are the ananta a crafting tribe or just a normal one?
combat
ah ok
That's fine on the cutscene. But I could theoretically farm a 130 set in a day ?
so just the namazu are crafting/gathering then?
yeah if you really want to
yes
I am progressing msq with a friend and have nothing else to do so I thought it may not he a bad idea
If other people q as first time I'll continue to get a bonus as well right
correct
what is the difference between a light and night party?
a light party is 4 players, 1t 1h 2d
i assume you mean full party by "night party"
a full party is 8 players, 2t 2h 4d
Unless it’s an alliance, 1t 2h 5d
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/p0z92s/when_you_have_whm_in_your_night_party/ this reddit post says "night party" ?
how important are professions?
its a joke about how blinding whm holy is
oh okay lol 
how come the namaze exp rewards are so low?
they're 10000 exp when the prior quests gave 5 to 8 mil
what lvl are you
oh
yes that explains it
just hit 70 lol, forgot about that
will it be 5 to 8 mil exp otherwise?
it'll be level appropriate for 60-70
once you hit 70, you're expect to move onto the shadowbringers stuff
dwarves for crafting, qitari for gathering
not needed most of the time for combat, people generally level professions for other reasons
For relic weapons, once you complete the questline how does it work to get it for additional jobs. Is it just doing the questline all over again? I havent done any yet but just curious.
Hey im not finding the house that death built quest in new gridania
haven't touched dwarves
such as being a completionist or looking for ways to make money
or being able to repair their own gear
basically yeah
tho you can often pre-farm certain steps
are dwarves and qitari for crafting and gathering respectively or do they do both?
for each relic
respectively
Yeah I've been spending my excess tomestones for stuff for the HW one
alright thanks for answering my questions
The job you have equipped is over level 17?
Yes
Because if so talk to the guard in quarry mill
^
I dont see it in my journal, i mightev completed it a while ago, ive accepted ever quest ive seen now im almost at end game
does anyone know how to get fieldcraft demimateria?
Try just talking to the wood wailer in quarrymill
Outside wolf marks is there any reason to do pvp if you don't expect to get top 100?
You can buy grade 3s for 200 yellow scrips, but the main way is desynth
There’s a list of items that you can get the demimateria from somewhere
ooo i see, thanks! ill check that out!
Does anyone know why the game would be downloading at only 2 MB/s on my laptop? I get around 40 MB/s on my normal computer
Same internet connection
i need help killing something :c
@jade condor ok i see, so this is how i enter the dungeon? I thought it would be in duty finder thanks for the help
I swear to god my brain is just wayy to small for leveling culinarian past level 60
Yeah, you need to go there to get in.
Deep dungeons are built different
Truly
is the diadem the best way to level gathering skills such as botany and mining or is there better methods?
what quest do i need to unlock performance
Go to the gridania ampitheater
can you get 2000+ gathering at level 60 miner?
What would you all say, are the sought out DPS Jobs for harder group pve content, due to their group utility, or ability to do mechanics easier?
red mage is very good
same with summoner
both have access to revives, red mage can do it instantly basically every time
summoner can only do it once instantly
allegory or poetics because those are two different tomestones
Could somebody please jump in a voice room with me and give me some advice on CUL crafting? I'll share my screen. I am struggling with this immensely 😄

eyguys!
Alright, thanks
which is the highest ilvl right now?
530 for armour, 535 for weapon
no
which weapon is 535?
what about if you started playing on PS4 then bought the code for PC?
Best way to ear nMGP now that there's a bonus?
as i understand it the game has cross save
the final step of the shadowbringers relic weapon, blade's X, and the eden's promise savage weapon, edenmorn @modest drift
You can do cross platform after buying the game, you just can't do the trial on two platforms
fair enough

Next question what DO you do with old gear say from level 1-40?
honestly? I toss it

You can turn it in for seals if you want
just delete it?
you can decide to save it for other classes if you really want
it's worth so little seals, but sure you can do that

Hello.
Question regarding npc squadrons.
I have 2 healers, 2 tanks, 2 archers and 2 rogues.
Sgould I keep this setting, or switch out 1 archer/rogue for a more general purpose npc?
rogues are awful
What would you recommend?
the only 2 DPS classes that matter in squadrons is arcanist and archer
Get an Arcanist
the melee are dumb as fuck and never attack right
all of them, they all craft for each other
Arcanists occasionally help heal

i only have some experience in TEA but most people estimate 70-100 raid hours
check with #endgame-lounge for people who've cleared all 3
uwu is generally considered the easiest ultimate
Thanks!
@robust crow I read somewhere that general purpose squadron members suck. So Arcanists are the only exeption?
i don't know what you mean by "general purpose"
2 tanks 2 healers 2 archer 2 arcanist is a fine setup
In order to buy things from the online store do I have to buy the complete edition or do I have to pay the subscription? It says "The subscription for this service account has expired". I still have 6 or 7 days left because of the free 14 days thing
all the melee members are stupid as fuck with AI so don't bother
archers are strong because they spam aoe and are actually useful
arcanists are okay because their pet helps them do damage
As in all 3 stats roughly balanced.
@robust crow Okay.
Are there any other worthwhile combos?
What is the best chat bubble addon for ff14??
the comp I mentioned just now is fine
you fine-tune stats with the training board anyway
Got it. thank you!
with most missions you're only going to be able to cover 2/3 of the stats
but for the flagged missions you have to have all 3
which generally means you have to overlevel them by a lot
many people don't complete the level 40 flagged mission until their whole squadron is like 46
What do I do?
When you play NG+ are you playing quests again or are you just running around talking and doing cutscenes
@robust crow Roger that!
Playing it all again
each stat you cover is a 33% chance of success
so most missions, you're looking at a 66% chance
unless you outlevel it by a fucking lot and can get all 3 stats green
M8, i dont think they let u buy optional services and items without having payed for a sub lol
Is there anything retained from your main journey?
Like does my level carry over?
Or my gear?
o7
Your what?
ng+ doesn't lower your level/ilvl outside of the required solo duties
so you're basically going thru the msq with whatever gear you have on atm, and current lvl until you're sync'd
Has anyone tried to make their own fc just for the company chest? I’m on the wiki and apparently it’s possible. You just need to invite 3 players to help you create the fc. They can leave once the fc has been formed but it doesn’t say if there is a waiting period
Do you know if the founding memberscan leave straight away?
yes, they should be able to
as long as the leader stays intact
some people I know created alts just for submarines
Awesome ty
that is correct
Was the reaper gonna be striking or maiming?
yes, none in the msq tho
maiming
its the weapon trials
maiming is the same as dragoon right?
yes
I already have those unlocked
thanks
Seat of Sacrifice, Emerald, Diamond, and thats it
Odd, there are some pf that are still locked and I can't figure what I'm missing
Ah, that explains it then
Doing the beasttribe quest for sylphs and the last "Not Who They Seem" person is missing. I checked online and these two spots are empty:
kugane, assuming you've completed the return to ivalice alliance raid series
Is there a way to disable the right click menu when I target other players' characters by mistake? When players are clumped up in a spot, I can't seem to be able to click the npc or item in need. It's quite annoying.
Get near, press 0 on numpad. Always target NPCs and such
What does the lancer go into
Thanks
Ah, what if i don't have a numpad :P What is the keybind's name to rebind it.
dragoon
Eh good question. Check in keybinds to see what 0 is bound to and that should help 😉
confirm key
Cheers. So, I guess It's impossible to disable right clicking player characters then. That would have been a lot more ideal.
there is a key to do that
I just press x
its uhh x
That "disables" the right click menu? Alright. I will check it out.
Protip, but the strat to going through that one portal in prae without accidentally clicking ur dickweed teammates.. to hold x
Is there a way to claim veterean rewards?
veteran rewards get mailed to you in-game
Where exactly in limsa do i unluck dancer ?
Towards the end of the arr msq whenever I tried to equipt a hat onto my character my main chest piece comes off. Can anyone explain what is going on?
If you delete those items can you retrive them?
2 slot items, it's ARR jank
I dont get it
some old gear takes up 2 slots
not sure you can delete those items, but afaik no there's no way to reclaim them
you'd have to ask for an item restore
Really close to the aetheryte iirc, I'm pretty sure its here
Do you have your own spells in Palace of the Dead?
you get whatever your job has
You start from 1 and level up as you kill things
For some reason though you get your role actions even at lvl 1 if you have them outside 
role actions are one of those few things that aren't affected by level sync
once they're unlocked they're useable no matter what
are there any ways to store an opened treasure map?
no, if you uncork it, you gotta commit to finding it
Ahh gotcha, thanks!
hey my friend just downloaded the game for the first time but cant make any character on any realm cuz they're all full what should he do?
wait
whats this
what is "triumph" to victory? for frontline
quest related
Shit out of luck? Try again when more players log out
Stuff like that ;/
usually it's things like "Talk to this guy to enter/exit area" or if you dismount a quest-specific mount a way to remount it
try again around midnight
hey is there any addon or plugin to get chat bubbles in ff
no
ChatBubbles 
it's in the quicklauncher's plugin browser

wait there iss
no I genuinely thought there wasn't one
do I only get the friendship circlet when my friend has been subscribed for thirty days?
the only one i can see is
Haplo064 chat bubbles
that's the one
how do i add it to the game since its a zipfile
Are you using Quicklauncher?
Cause you should be using Quicklauncher if you want plugins
!faq quicklauncher
How do I unlock Ishgard restoration? Is it a blue quest or an MSQ thing
"Litany of Peace" MSQ and then a quest in Foundation
blue quest unlocked after msq
Bet tysm
"Towards the Firmament"
is Palace of Dead good place to earn gils?
If you do loot runs, it can be decent
if you get lucky on loot
But I heavily recommend a fixed party or some experience running it solo
As matched parties generally go for running 10 floors asap
is this a thing in this game? like in other mmorpgs you can complete but not turn in a lot of high exp quests and hold it until next expansion then turn them in when the expansion releases to get a huge exp bump at the start
are doodoo for xp
is palace of the dead worth doing to level alts?
It's a good alternative to dungeon spam for DPS
as the queues are iirc the same for all roles there
i see
I found dungeons to be way quicker as healer
hello folks and a ?
what is CDS for a palidan ?
Only did POTD to avoid Vale 😭
You mean which abilities are Cooldowns?
defensive cooldowns
does palace of the dead give job exp
anything that helps you die slower
idnk but is something some one mentioned it was killing my hp or something
Yes
You should be using your defensive cooldowns when pulling a big group or about to be hit by a boss' big attack
i was using it lol
Rampart, Sentinel and Reprisal? (Arm's length in some cases)
is it good for leveling? im running out of side quests for my classes
are bad, you shouldn't be doing them for XP
you don't do side quests for exp
Do your hunting log until 15 and then spam dungeons if you're tank/healer
i have 3 and the other i hit at the wrong time is the shield that is like a portion of a sphere which does not last to long
if dps, you can do Palace of the Dead
how can i check if i already got an orchestrion roll?
ctrl O
Sheltron can be used on top of your other defensive cooldowns
ok thx you
the f
as a PLD you have the added bonus of having a "passive" damage reduction
Ever so often your character will block attacks, reducing how much damage they do
Why does the game never tell me this
Sheltron guarantees that you will block every attack for the next 6s
it do
it's in logs
How do I start the duty when I have a PF group?
What jobs aside from MCH double weave the most? Shit Lowkey fun : D
Like constantly
nin has a bunch of weaving to do 
Que like normal
ye think so Ik NIN fast af
idk if it does as much double weaving tho
Turn on undersized party if you're not full
https://i.imgur.com/Kpk8WQS.png which do i pick for my lvl58 btn quest reward?
doesn't really matter
would enfeeblements ever really take up all of the space that's allocated to it or would this kinda spacing work?
its pretty rare for enfeeblements to take up that whole space, in my experience
so that should be fine spot
awesome
Especially when you get a ton of debuffs
hey with the free trial you can essentially play almost every class capped at 60 for an unlimited time right?
Yes
Is the current way to speed level to 60 on gatherers through the ishgard place?
I'm seeing get to level 10 and then head over to there.
Yes, leves are the alternative
For the squadron, what is teh benefit of switching with new recruits ?
leves 1-50, 50+ collectables with leves between timed nodes is going to be better
I want speed but also to have them leveled up so I can easily level crafters to try to make some money while I wait for my friends to catch up to the start of ShB
then diadem is good because you're double dipping, exp for your gatherers and mats for your crafters
The mats from Diadem are only used for the ishgard restoration turn ins right?
correct
Sweet, thank you.
White mage has the highest dps of any healer job? And astro the lowest?
How do I leave PoTD? The Cairn of Return is glowing, but does nothing more.
passage is for the next floor
cairn of return is for raising dead players
return is revives
passage is for moving to the next floor
So how do I leave?
open the duty finder and press U if you want to leave palace of the dead completely
What do people mean when they say “gear progression”?
Im a returning player and my rotation is a nightmare, Any advice on how to fix it
literally i keep logging on goingnope then logging out haha
The balance discord is a good place to star
Tons of class resources including detailed rotations
I forgot the bot command if anyone else knows it.
your gear improving from 1 to [insert level]
Weskalber on YouTube for under lv80 rotations
i found the discord
Agreed on Weskalber
Just smack a dummy for awhile
but man, youtube videos are not to the point at all
How do I delete a PoTD save?
I dont have 40 mins to listen to thoughts on a class lol
Weskalbers videos are timestamped to rotations
With images
The Balance is really good for optimizing since its so indepth. Wekalbers videos are more of a primer for each class.
oh really
thank you for the help lads
this might sound stupid, but whats the difference between, in this example, a level 30 rotation and a level 60 opener?
uh
Fairly the same thing
well at level 30 you won't have half the skills you'd have at 60
But level 30 you dont have that many skills
the skills available
cso there dosent seem to be a level 30 opener if that makes sense nor a level 60 rotation
what class are you looking at
monk
monk changes significantly (like most classes) between 30 and 60
Openers are what you do at the start of the fight...rotation is what you do afterwards
yeah sorry, i know im not explaining my question well
^^
That right there is what I was looking for
so why dosent he have a level 60 rotation?
only an opener
Rotations are more or less just job management
you're also not usually going to get to use an opener 90% of the time
"keep buffs up, keep dots up, use shit on Cooldown"
what class is this
since most openers are single target (boss) only and really aren't necessary for the entire story
Question so
the opener has a a self-evident rotaional set-up yaeh
And rotation Is just managing stuff
I wanna buy ffxiv for my friend and will an additional service account work?
Or would I needa buy it for him
buy it for him
additional service account is if you want to play your account on another platform
^
Just bought the endwalker preorder for a friend and its way easier to manage on their own accounts
Facts
If I visit another server on my data center, can I still do dungeons and use the duty finder?
I know they want to have it on the switch but I dont understand whats keeping them, that being said I could probably google it
yes
yes
Thank you
Hellow
For the Eternal bonding, does it work between two characters of the same gender?
yes
yes gay marriage is in the game
yep
Ok. About this: || https://i.imgur.com/MRzRbu1.jpeg ||
you can use both genders outfits as well
Is this new to ShB? || Am I able to basically have AI teammates for dungeons? ||
what does fc stand for
free company
Oh that's super cool thank you!!
because love transcends all boundaries
it's the free company chat
You can use trusts for Shadowbringers dungeons
Ah cool
They're slower than normal players. Averagimg 30mins a run
Alr I just bought it for him
But more immersion
I didn't find anything online so I got a bit worried and didn't want to buy it to end up figuring out that it wouldn't work ya know
Immersion as in more dialogue or just the feeling of having story chars fight with you lol
Both
More dialogue? 😮
And react to bosses
hey how do i add addons to quicklauncher
I've been playing FF14 like a single player JRPG up until now, save ofc raids/dungeons
Why stop now
Someone has been going through all dungeons with trusts abd making all interactions with them into a diagram
Dang haha
If you've been recently rezzed does it reduce the DMG of a DPS LB?
I think someone posted all the dialogue lines on reddit.
Definitely take ||Aliasae|| with you for the first Holmestier
For the squadron, what is teh benefit of switching with new recruits ?
Yeah all the wedding sets say "Fits: Everyone ♥"
Regarding Grand Companies, can you still use an Elite gear from one, say Twin Adder, as glamour if you transfer to another one, like Maelstrom?
No
bruh, 338 people in the queue to get logged in unable to retrieve character data
If they have a class you need and you don’t have the resources to swap what you have.
Based Sqenix
Will do. Was planning on taking || Exarch, Alpin, and Alis anyway|| Don't need the captain haha
im going to guess I wont have to worry about finding an FC that isnt full of salty vets then?
I don’t think so.
So even if it's already in a glamour plate it just won't apply?
But I could be wrong.
Plus the damn Endwalker trailer. Might as well follow it
Does the gear say “requires immortal flames” or something?
I got this message "Unable to execute actions due to aetherical intereference" during a ce
what does that mean
If you've been recently rezzed does it reduce the damage of a DPS LB?
I don’t think so.
iirc CEs block your Return spell
You can't use skills on people on the opposite side of the barrier to you
I see, thank you everyone
And that
Only when it starts
ah
You can return prior
Sup dudes, quick question is the ultima weapon the final quest from ARR? and then onto heavensward? coz on the wiki it says there's like 40 more quests XD called the realm awoken or something?
hey im kinda confused about quicklauncher how do i add the addons to it??
Theres an entire post game
what should i do on this
80 quests of post Arr then heavensward
this is new
Am I playing poorly if I never use Cover/Intervention? I feel like I'm never in range to use them
It’s the final quest of the vanilla ARR story. After that it’s the post 50 Astral Era content to Hw.
They’re very situational.
Worth doing the post game or move onto heavensward straight away?
you don't have a choice
You're required to do it
You have to do the post game. It’s not optional.
Its literally the MSQ lol
oh damn XD
You cannot skip any msq. Ever.
Intervention is used more than cover
not without like $20 you don't
Fair play damn, I was looking forward to finally getting on heavensward XD
Its a bit rough but the story and setup is really important
They shortened the process. It’s not so bad. Plus you’ll still gain exp and get a few levels to speed it up.
Intervention seems more useful due to the range, but I still feel like I'm too far to ever use it
You only use intervention on the MT to help with busters
why macro icon didnt change? did i do something wrong?
Cover is basically never
I'm honestly gaining xp so slowly now, i'm level 54 Dragoon about to head into ultima fight, any tips on what to do to grind xp fast??
It will rarely save someone’s life anyway. Use it if you can but most of your gauge should go to sheltron.
you commonly put intervention on your main tank if you're off tanking
what does it mean by collector's standard proc and check for proc??
Ah, gotcha. I don't raid or do trials very often, so that might explain why I didn't think to use it much
You won’t be able to gain a lot of exp until you hit hw stuff.
Don’t grind. Just do msq.
The proc you get for using the skill that increases how much progress you get
I'll remember that next time I'm off tanking
Aka the glowing light icon
Are there no end game dungeons? or raids or anything, or literally is that after getting into heavensward? @nocturne wyvern
FWIW paladins are better at offtanking than MT
if you ever do an endgame raid it's recommended that you OT as paladin
is 500 collectability normal for 0 gp?
though not required
There is for arr and doing the 24man and hard mode primals are mandatory to get to heavensward
there are raids in every expansion @ruby turtle and dungeons to do afterwards
Coils isnt
The 50 raids and so on are all obsolete gear and content. The 50 postgame now means the level 50 msq after prateorium.
got you okay thank you
@faint flare should i use all 4 charges or do i collect rn https://i.imgur.com/FJTLEam.png
Yes use them all
So I shoudn't be grinding for gear on ARR? Just wait for later expansions to start
No. You’ll get gear in the msq and in the 51 and 53 dungeon content.
@faint flare but if i use all i wont get the collectable?
at what point would you recommend going for the relic weapon and gear grind? @nocturne wyvern
Level 80.
When you finish the shb story.
theres like no reason to do grinding beforehand, unless you like the look of something and want it for glamour
We’re three expansions in right now. All that content you’re doing is obsolete. XD it’s ok, that’s what the channel is for.
But what I dont get it this
Hello, am i suppose to complete the MQS in order to have access to all of the content /different raid difficulties/
yes
if you're talking about savage vs normal, you have to complete all the normal raids before the savage will unlock
Also skip side quests until you need to level more for the msq. at which point do whatever is the highest level dungeon available.
for the given raid series you want
i.e. you have to finish a1-a4 normal before you unlock a1-a4 savage
I mean, i hit 80 and MQS is around 74, can i shortcut it?
