Savage
510 is from normal
Edenmorn is savage only
They do look the same
The normal version is called Edenmete
520
Nope
3 coins from where
Each nier raid
All the Nier raid
One per raid
Ok so
You need all 3 coins
Is the weekly restriction for the 3rd raid lifted?
Yes
Yes
Let me see if I got this
Weapon augmentation material tradeable with coins?
Yes
Step one farm all revelation gear.
Step two use nier raid augment coins to upgrade to 530.
Step three gg
K
Yes...can also get the augment items via hunt currency or savage
K
If you want to save time, you can get 525 weapons from diamond ex
I should be able to do all that in 100 days
It takes a lot less time than i530 weapons
Getting 530 cryptlurker weapon takes a bit of work
I already have relic almost done
I'm on the last step
Item level 525 weapons is relatively quicker to acquire. Something worth considering if you want to gear multiple level 80 Jobs
Oh, very nice
Healer Q time OP
Is there a way to see a replay of a dungeon/trial? I got melted at one point as a DRK and I wanted to see if I could figure out how I died
I probably should've checked the battle log before leaving...
For retainer quick ventures, does every job have a chance of bringing back the rare dyes?
How much ilvl for combat and gathering for gatherers do they both need to get the highest chances for good stuff.
I recall you don't need to gear them too well
is there no way to track more than 5 quests at once? i just accepted 9 quests at the ixal beast tribe place and juggling them active to see the quest markers is kinda tedious
Is it normal for delivery moogle to have delay in sending item from cash shop?
All jobs share the quick venture reward pool
Yes
@warm snow alright thats all I need to know from quick ventures thanks!
Hey, i'm actually lvl 47 and i need to be 49 to continue main quest; what i should do to lvl up fast to 49 ?
run aurum vale the lvl47 dungeon after you did your leveling roulette
where do i do hunting log?
i purchased something from the store but delivery moogle says there's nothing there
Press H, and kill the listed enemies as the appropriate class
thanks
what's the leveling roulette
@noble kernel it can take some time for it to actually get to the moogle, i wouldnt stress it too much
Press U and there is a Duty Roulette, one of them is called Leveling which takes you in a random dungeon that you have unlocked
With extra bonuses if you are an "Adventurer in Need", usually a tank or healer
that ?
yes
Looks like it yeah 😄
if you are fast you can do it 2 times today, daily reset is in 40 min
I need to finish it in 40 min or just launch it before ?
Okok then i'll try 😄
You can trade them in to resistance historians for boxes
Anyone know the best time to be able to create a character on Louisoix?
does changing duty finder settings lock you into what you choose, or open it as a possibility?
What stats do I want to pick for my dark knight relic?
Crit > Det > Direct
So... this week's fashion report... i can't get at least 80 points without being lv 59?
Since Sharlayan boots are lv 59 gear?
after i complete a hunting log, how do i hand it in?
looks like it
that's just the truth of some FRs
If you have one of the level 1 glamour items you can use those instead
... gdi... time to power level this weekend...
Out of the tops
oh, tessia's right, you can use an alternative
look at the chestpieces
should be automatic, you get the xp immediately when you kill the last mob
use one of those instead of the sharlayan boots
Is there a way to turn off the new vertical light effect on the orange enemy AoE markers?
Oh, so instead of dyeable hands and head + sharlayan boots. I can replace boots with dyeable weapon?
Question ab the Ranger, what tips do you have for better movement during the combat? Since there is no dodgeroll, do i just Q and E? I like to be on the move during the fights, but my camera is m"messed" up (tried both movements: Legacy and the other one). Or shuld i just keep distance and move as little as needed / possible? Thanks.
is it worth using mouse over casts for single target healing?
learning to stay at ranged and move as little as possible is worth learning (in case you play casters too)
Idk how dye points work, but I was thinking use the strife vest or one of the hooded vests if you can
i use legacy and just strafe around yea
are you talking about machinist? unbind strafe from Q and E and bind it to A and D
by default A and D for turn camera is shit
He means archer
this way you can open Q and E for more buttons
also it's better to be closer to the boss so you're in range of healing and healer bubbles lol
don't make it a habit to be far from the boss
no, mouse over casts are not really worth it. the GCD and combat is slow enough that targeted heals are fine. and you end up aoe healing more anyway

im on ps4 with keyboard and mouse and im unable to play more than 1 note at a time on performance anyone know a fix?
that is a limitation of bard performance for everyone... only 1 note at a time
ok
Brilliant idea, will try that. Thanks!
as a fan and user of bard performance i wish this was a feature too
yh would be great
Just got into Shadowbringers, and noticed that some enemy attack markers have this light effect coming up from them. Why is that? Does it indicate something?
i agree with this, keyboard turning is the worst thing in mmos and needs to be replaced with strafe immediately and bind more buttons
what level can you reach with this so called boost potion?
I'm currently sitting on several 80's, been playing a month, and from my current research on Discords and such, DPS is always wanted, mostly melee and ranged.
What would you guys say from personal experience for Savage Statics is the most sought after melee and ranged dps respectively on launches of tiers?
Is there some class that has an easier time finding statics that work?
they added more effects to make it easier to understand what to do.
you have a picture or the specific graphic or describe further?
70
10 below cap
thanks
Talking about this. Is there a way to turn it off, if it doesnt indicate anything different?
hey when i hover a skill/item with my mouse this window opens can i move it somewhere else like left of the screen
most desired dps classes for savage progression statics are usually ones with some raid buff/benefit. so DRG, NIN are great
Hmm, monk is among those too, no?
it really truly does not matter
just play whatever you want
if you really want to be in demand, be a tank or healer instead
Is there any point in helping the dwarves doing their weekly quests after the last nier raid?
it really doesn't matter, even if your goal is to clear the tier in the first week
believe that aoe is slightly different. knockback i think
it may possibly matter if your goal is to compete for world first
Extra story
It obviously matters as it gives you more room to wiggle in case the static you find doesn't fit you
lore 🤷♂️
it's not like PF is lacking DPS
no one's specifically going to fill a melee spot with, say, a samurai
they're going to take whatever melee joins the party
I'm not talking about PF though, rather proper places for more hardcore groups
@carmine ore dwarf lore or nier lore? if its nier imma do it. If its stunties... ill pass
even in more hardcore groups it does not matter
Eg. discord channels for recruitment and so on
unless they're going for some speedrun strat
most hardcore groups recruit specific classes only because they have someone else playing another class
they won't take 2 SAMs for example
Exactly? That's why I'm asking what's usually most in demand
they're not gonna be "oh we really want a ninja for trick"
there isn't a DPS that's "in demand"
I'm a hardcore wow logger, so I'm curious to hear what's most sought after all these years in those spots
it's just gonna be "oh we already have a SAM, so any other melee is fine"
It's not any other melee though from what I re-searched, there's always preferences depending on the comp
where do I get Craftsman's Competence Materia I? Im on the bsm lvl 20 quest By the Sweat of Your Brow and kinda stuck on the melding
what are the results of your research then?
you can do large, sweeping statements like "oh I guess if we have a DNC we might want a SAM"
since DNC's optimal partner is SAM
but even then that's really not necessary
Im tryna get the horse mount from the (leviathin,titan,ifrit ect)trials and the queue times are insanely long (i use the duty finder)so does anyone know how to find people to play with?
people usually solo this content at this point on a level 80, also try party finder
materia is from extracting from spritbonding. that would take a while and is random. I recommend buying on the market board
or "if we have a RDM maybe they'll want an all-physical comp"
thx, I thought there was an npc selling it too @carmine ore
Ty
np. and technically you can buy it from a beast tribe vendor (Ixal in North Shroud) if you are doing beast tribes
yeah, found him but havent done any of that
so i just hit level 50 on warrior and i still use lvl 31 axe, and i wonder if there is a good source for an okay weapon other than the chests i get from MSQ, i am saving those for another job,
poetic gear
What is spirit bond on my gear?
@carmine ore to the google machine i go then
!faq poetics
at 100 you can extract a materia from the gear
and it resets
vendor in Mor Dhona can sell you lv 50 gear with poetics
Y’all what does “ pulling 90% in current content “ mean :/
Like what does the % mean when worded like that
Ohh thats what that is! Thanks!
likely parsing dps numbers - % of all dps doing that content
90% meaning they are claiming top 10% of dps for that fight
How complex is FF14
It’s not
its not. its A LOT of content, but not complicated
i quess i should just use lvl 45 weapon chest since i am still only lvl 50
I mean, when I see the game, it's a bit confusing
found it. Level 50 Augmented Ironworks Armor, Accessories, and Weapons (Item level 130) from Auriana in Mor Dhona (x22,y6) and from Sundry Splendors Representatives in Limsa Lominsa, Gridania, and Ul'dah.
At its very simplest, the game is “press buttons, don’t die”
i just reached my miner to lv 80 what set should i go
here to help. what is confusing and can try to explain
blue gear or HQ gear and why
Well, the first question is, crafting, do I need to do it or no?
Optional
get white scrip gear, it's good enough for most people
i use blue gear and more than fine. (Landsaint's set)
then blue gear ?
yes
oki
unless you know specifically what you're pentamelding gathering gear for
can i get levequest allowances back if i abandon them before i start?
but otherwise just use the i500 landsaint gear
I mean I would like to play the game, but I can't, even though I bought it.
saw people use HQ gear rather than blue why
isn't Landsaint's set enough
trying to hit specific gathering breakpoints for endgame or timed node gathers
which is really not necessary for most players
it also helps with high end gathers in the diadem
If you’re talking about character creation, you just have to wait til people aren’t playing
past that, i'm not sure what else people pentameld gathering gear for
Thanks
lots of new players and character creation is jammed up right now
No, Enix just doesn't let me play, in fact they didn't give me the things necessary to play it
What does that mean?
you need the download site to get the game?
I apparently need a ID and a one time password to even get through the client so I can activate the key
But Enix hasn't given me one when I made an account
you don't need the one time password
You made your id
that's only if you put an authenticator on your account
And the otp is optional
One time password is only if you’ve used it before
Leave it blank if you haven't set up two factor authication
@faint flare Wdym by I made my ID
you can leave one time password blank
You mean the username thingy
Your account username is your ID
ID is the username when you setup the account and bought the game
Well for some reason Enix doesn't recognize it
And even when I went to account management
Are you trying to use the square STORE account to login to the game
And not your mogstation account
store and ffxiv account isnt the same
Is the moonfire event easy and quick or
cause im debating do now before work or after
alright sick
The FF14 client is what I am using
!faq mogstation
You do have to wait for a FATE, but it’ll get done quickly
is there a way for us to find the GC list of the day for the various levels?
Which is what you made when you created the account
ctrl + U on kbm for the daily/weekly timers
you can click on the GC turn-ins
but that only shows for your levels?
You mean the username?
err yeah it only shows turn ins specific for you
Well it says it's invalid even though it's spot on
you need to create 1 if you didnt do it yet, the account you used /created for https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com isnt the same one
yeah square enix systems can be a pain if you arent used to them
Mogstation account
!faq mogstation
Is your 14 account
So that one?
Yes
is it possible to contact via ffxiv discord the square enix support staff? they disabled the live chat function in eu
There is no 14 discord or square support here (unless they mega lurk)
So I click on register new account
okay thanks, guess i have to wait days or weeks to get an answer to my ticket then
how do i get to the new event area?
How do i get cryptlurker gear?
In Costa del sol
Revelation tomes in eulmore
Just trade in w some vendor like poetics?
Yes
Rev tomes are weekly capped
Its fine, i've got tons of content not done so im no straight grinding. thanks for ur help man
Oh wait then whats Allegory Tomestones for
since there's already revelation for armor
So its just lower tier new gear alright thanks
my friend bought a sub but the play button isn't showing? https://i.imgur.com/81plSBq.png
how do i get to costa del sol?
Uh its in eastern la noscea
You can only travel to other cities if you did the story quest up to 20 i think
Connection issues
Have them re-open the client
i found it, thanks
is for a healer relic, piety more important than spell speed?
Piety is a comfort stat
So spell speed?
I think its spell speed and determination
Crit det sps
sometimes it helps to wait a lil bit, can be slow to load when the server are busy or restart
is there any way to abandon a leve quest?
Fail the leve then you can
is the start of heavensward supposed to be kinda slow? because ngl this just feels so far like an extended/improved version of arr+ (so, kinda "arr++")
rather than Critically acclai
i tried that but it only gives me "map" and "retry", no abandon
just open in quest journal to abandon no?
but if its part of the unlock quest, i dont think u can abandon
opinionated but I don't think HW starts off that slow
Anything faster than ARR is good enough for me
you have like maybe 2 hours of gameplay where you're just running errands for ||edmont's sons but even those storylines have some substance, and past that you go right into the major plot||
i mean the part with ||just travelling through 3 different areas is pretty dull||
and it took me days
about 2-3
the story is pretty engaging while you're traveling through those areas though
a lot of shit is going on during those parts
ig but it feels more like the worldbuiding part of arr but for HW
foreplay is important
Heh
best way to describe slow parts of the story
also pace yourself
it doesn't feel good if you just go full speed all the way
is the story supposed to be more interesting after ||the fucking uhh nidhogg dunj fight? i forgot the name and not at my pc rn||
that's one of the rising points of the HW story yes

you're not going to hit the climax for a bit though
can you turn poetic tomestones into allegory revalation? I saw a video where someone turned 2000 of an old one into 500 of a new one
if you're completely disengaged at that point the story might not be for you tbh
but you're approaching a climax
that was specifically because a new tomestone came out
but no, you can't convert poetics to endgame tomes
ok
last raid tier, allegory was the endgame tome
So do I get the EXP bonus and earrings if I preorder Endwalker through steam, or only through the SE store?
so you could convert phantasmagoria (the previous tome) into allegory at a rate of 1/4
but only because allegory came out
all preorders
Tyvm
What do you mean?
iirc if you play on steam, only a steam issued code will work for your expansion since you already have an active account on that platform. You can have multiple platforms but they dont cross IE Steam vs SQEX store versions dont mix.
This is true
Glad someone could confirm
Can confirm, a friend of mine had a bad time
what stats to focus on samurai, normal terms please.
You want a certain amount of skillspeed to make your tsubame gaeshi come off cooldown as soon as you can use it. The Balance can help with that, otherwise I believe it's Crit = Direct Hit -> Det
oh and
!faq balance
what is the best way to level from 50 to 60? spamming the highest available dungeon to a healer?
!faq altlvlguide
@wintry chasm thx, do you also know where I can get higher level jewellery? I still rock lvl 27 earrings
What skill become unusable during a level sync? Cause I'm a healer now and I noticed I can use level 40 skills when lvl sync turn me back into level 27.
Can I not use attack, buff, and HP heal related skills and that's it?
Pretty much @leaden ginkgo
Where do I spend the moonfire tokens?
Role actions can be used
crafting/dungeons i recommend just running dungeons
But not actual job skills
ah
yeah, what calisaie said. sams have 3 speed tier builds: slow, fast, and in-between but most people go the slow build since it's technically the highest DPS
oh, you aren't endgame yet
Same place as the summer event npc location at la costa
lvl 51
don't worry about speed tiers, just go for ilvl
Yeah dungeons do drop accessories
but since ur 51, consider trading in poetics for ironforge(?)ilevel135 accessories
also just buy jewelry with poetics
where is that?
any ARR(Limsa,Gridania,Ulda) town aetheryte plaza
I am completely lost on where I am on the YoRha questline, can I check that somewhere?
there's a sundry splendour trader
oh, so you can buy gear from other people?
Go get the ironworks accessories
Yeah you're trading battle currency (poetic tomestones) for gear
how many raids have you done?
Other players? Yes but not on free trial
pretty much the entire questline takes place in that area of kholusia
Pretty sure I did the first raid and nothing after that
Yeah im at that area currently but cant find any quests
head to the little dwarf cave where 2b is being fixed at
uhh check your quest log for any blue level 80 quests
Whats the closest Invincible looking mount in the game ? ^^
like a spectral horse? maybe astrope, kirin, any of the ARR EX mounts
Wasnt there a horse w something draped on its back
oh crap, I had a quest, thanks and sorry
So uhh first time buying stuff from mog station, how long does an item typically take to reach the delivery moogle?
eh can vary a lot, generally I'd say ^ or shorter
account wide, 3h+. otherwise ~15mins
grani isn't a horse but it has 4 ribbons that trail behind it when it flies?
Owh the one I was refering to was Red Hare
I bought an item for a specific character in tonberry and havent received it yet, its been 15 minutes. How long should I wait before contacting support?
ahh i see, thank you
how long does fate take
Panic after 24 hours
Like a minute
30 sec
Respawn is like 5mins
owh im not sure if im correct
been more than 30 secs or 5 mins lol
but the store page says:
Delivery will automatically be reattempted after space has been freed by deleting old letters. Timing will vary as follows:
- Within 10 days of purchase: Up to one hour may be required for re-delivery.
- More than 10 days since purchase: Up to 24 hours may be required for re-delivery.
do you get poetics from HW s-rank hunt?
respawn took about 7 mins for me? maybe its RNG ish on the respawn but typically 5-10 mins
My mail box hasnt had mail at all yet tho so im not sure if this applies
does doing trials unsynced decrease drop rate?
No
yeah they dont say how long to expect the item by
lol
rip just pray ig
Dw you'll get it, just wait till the mail notif on top right shows up
ohhh I didnt know there was a notif for mail
thanks otherwise id be camping at the moogle lmao
whats the fastest way to farm compact axle for relic?
got it
this is it for the seasonal currency thing right?
Correct
Guys, if I buy a room in my fc-s house, but I leave the fc, do I lose the 300k?
and the room as well?
yes
consider the 300k gone as soon as you buy the room
if you leave the FC you don't get your money back
nah I mean do I lose the room
Yikes.
ahh true true
it's 500k though
Is there a chance in the future to buy an own house?
your best bet, without camping a house plot, is to log on as soon as 6.1 housing hits
and rush to an open ishgard plot
other than that, watch your server's housing wards and look for openings
are they expensive as hell?
We got a while before 6.1 its definitely doable
But its fighting other people for the plot thats going to be the hard part
yeah maybe we throw our money together with my 2 sprout friends 😄
6.1 is after the Endwalker release so you got time.
okay thx!
what's the biggest feature i'm missing out on by not having a house?
does gardening provide something that you can't get in the wild as a botanist?
House is more endgame material I think
oh god.. what to choose?
they're mechanically identical
choose the one you like the look of more
per plant?
I usually choose the one that goes with my starting city
there was a post that compares all the glamours from the GCs
but honestly none of them look good
and you can switch GCs later anyway
pick your favorite
!faq grandcompany
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after "The Company You Keep". Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
Yes
Thavnarian Onion
do you get 1 plant from seed
and i presume those items are used for rare crafting
Yes
I threw my imperrial disguise gear by mistake and now I cant progess in the story, where can I get it again?
Is it still possible to experience extreme versions of older Trials like Heavenwards with people or is it just impossible even with a party finder? Synced btw I want the full difficulty
You need to find the synced discord for your data centre. Some are in #resources
That's your best bet
Calamity salvager
Should I prioritize crit, direct hit or determination as a NIN?
In that order
gotcha
What is shared fate and how do I unlock it
and I heard people saying materia doesn't really matter up until rank like 7-8 ones?
Materia means nothing until endgame
Shared fates is a shadowbringers thing for Shadowbringers fates
Hello, I just started the mount quest, and seems like I need 200 seals, whats the fastest way to get it? weekly hunt gives 100 but I dont have access to that enemy
Literally do the next msq
Next msq
Krakka root seeds?
It gives you 300
or just krakka root
oh didnt know, thanks!
most plants give you only 1 seed but numerous fruits
depends on the plant
depends on your goal
is for cross breeding right?
thanalan is for crossbreeding
la noscean is for doubling yield, but only for certain plants
it notably does not work on onions
the fertilizer?
sorry you mentioned topsoil and I thought you were talking about the soil lol
but yeah it's just fishmeal
cheapest to just buy the fish yourself from the vendor in la noscea and then make your own fishmeal
saves you gil than just buying the fertilizer
i've started leveling a warrior but all of the defensive cd's makes me a bit overwhelmed and hard to manage which one to prioritize given the circumstances. are there any sites showcasing this?
you don't really have any kind of priority
in dungeons, you generally just pop one or two per trash pack
reprisal has a short CD so you can pretty much use it every trash pack
rampart and your personal 30% have longer CDs so you alternate between the two
what level are you?
im currently 47
so you only have like, 4 mits
for WAR you'll probably want to prioritize vengeance though
it's great on trash packs because it comes with a reflect
everything that hits you takes like, 55 potency of damage
!action vengeance
you also have arm's length, which is a significant mitigation as well since it reduces attack speed
how do i unlock?
so if you're pulling large trash packs, you can probably use vengeance, then reprisal + rampart, and arm's length, cycling between all of them
generally only one set of mits is needed per trash pack unless your DPS is shit
and i haven't got this either
@tranquil wolf enable it on one of your cross class slots
i watched this guy's gunbreaker guide and it helped me figure out gunbreaker (around level 50) so here's the warrior guide
5.3 Patch Notes: The maximum timer for Storm's Eye has been buffed to 60 seconds, and the extending skills now extend it further. Berserk/Inner Release now ALSO extends Storm's Eye by 15 seconds. Also Nascent Flash no longer needs a target, you can use on just yourself much easier. Very nice for trash pulls.
5.5 Patch: +20 Potency to Maim and +4...
@tranquil wolf you need to unlock that in foundation
Eos/Selene is just cosmetic difference? I feel like they might have had different role in the past, but are now the same thing, correct?
correct
uhhhh
!action raw intuition
you get this later too and it's such a short cooldown it's pretty much useable all the time
Just click the little boxes next to the skills
this?
@robust crow i also tend to use them all when i feel pressured on trash packs but then i have everything on CD on the next one lol
Can I easily solo thordan ex for the mount?
Not really
Not even with a level 80 with high ilevel?
how did you get those additional skills? I don't have those
yeah you just have to get used to not doing that
your healer's got you
The spear + buster combo will basically wreck you until you stack up echo every time
With maybe a Vit pot
And throwing all your Cooldowns
can someone please help me understand how to enable fishing addiontal?
You don’t, you’re a fisher right now
@robust crow what about thrill of battle? is this like the weakest defensive available for now?
thrill of battle is generally used to heal yourself
so you can just use it whenever you feel it's necessary
Thrill is a indirect shield
the max HP bonus is nice but it doesn't really mitigate damage
how can i q in delubrum without talking on npc
Cause it's extra hp and health
oh i had to switch diffrent class
You don't...talk to the npc
later on, you get a skill that will dispel thrill of battle's HP bonus in exchange for a bigger shield
!action shake it off
i always talk to npc to start q
Creates a barrier around self and all nearby party members that absorbs damage totaling 15% of maximum HP.
Dispels Thrill of Battle, Vengeance, and Raw Intuition, increasing damage absorbed by 2% for each effect removed.
Duration: 15s
Yes
how can i q without talking to him
The additional actions are from the gatherers not currently in use
Is A12S cheesable at lv 80? I wanna get my hands on that mount
Yes
how do i unlock this skill, im over lvl 50
pretty sure that's a blue quest
Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
yeah, it's not your class quest, just a quest somewhere

The Better Half is heavensword quest?
how long is this mogstation mail gonna deliver, i been waiting for about 2 hours already
Could take up to 24
Anybody know if XIVAlexander requires any setup upon download? I opened it up and idk if it’s working or not.
Hey , i'm ilvl 41 and i need to be 42 for a dungeon, where i can get / buy some stuff to hit this ilvl fast ?
what dungeon are you talking about
so my first charact got lucky i guess and just found all lvl 5 gear before the main story quest requires it to move on but this second character hasnt had the same luck i guess..... any tips on how to find lvl 5 hat gloves and pants rofl
the ARR dungeons are 41, 44, 47, 49
hmmmm
Dungeons also dont have an iLvl requirement unless theyre 50/60/70/80
Just buy them from the npc nearby you should have enough gil
Make sure they say iLvl5 though
Do your lv50 job quest and open the chest of gear you got given for i90 gear
You should just need a hat
Do pomanders or raising and resolution get more common the higher you progress? i have not seen 1 yet and i'm on floors 61-70 and i want to save them up for higher floors
Oh ok ty
How do I hide the ui with an Xbox controller to take a screenshot?
ill give it a try.... ive never bought gear from a vender (i know im brand new)
All good, there should be one nearby from where you accepted the quest. Level and item level are 2 different things to just make sure to read the tooltip for the item to get the right one
how much RNG is involved with getting the shark mount? do I keep playing and hope spectral currents proc on all three voyage chapters?
thats pretty much it, yes
you should be hoping to proc it
And fill out bonuses to help out
you can sometimes get lucky and still get it with 2 procs
The dolphin and gulls also help
i got mine with 2 procs but both were amazing and i started one them
that 10% is not to be scoffed at
2 procs and filled out like 80% bonus to barely get mind
I want to minimize the RNG, I keep getting above 9,000 but never 10k
got any tips?
I was 200 points short once on 2 spectrals
then a few games after I got 3 spectrals and I got it
how do you report someone? when I press "report" it's only for RMT?
Support Desk
System > support desk
what are you reporting them for, if you don't mind me asking
is there a way to move skill bars 1 by 1 instead of the whole 12 slots?
I want to put like 4 skill slots together and then just 3 or 5, etc etc, instead of having always 12 together
Getting 3 double hooks under spectral helps alot
just got a new pc and needed to redownload ffxiv, but the download speed is incredibly slow (0,02mb/s)
Any solutions?
@lone totem I was healing in this dungeon and being nice the whole time telling everyone how to do it, and the tank just kept insulting me for no reason lol
@tranquil wolf the quest next to the levemette giver
i found it thanks
if you still have ffxiv on the old PC, maybe you can move it from there?
No one joined my raid so I’m doing it solo, is that normal?
i actually can't double hook
Uh hard disk is corrupted 
I'm not sure why, but there are a load of abilities I should have but can't use
what raid
got question, how do i know what bait is best to use when going to fishing ship trip?
Are you doing quests?
depends on the location @tranquil wolf
FFXIV's harassment policy is a bit strange when it comes to forming parties with randoms, the general answer you will get is to blacklist them
Sastasha dungeon the story is telling me to do it
there are two rotations that goes
But no one is joining
I mean I saw on reddit that people get punished for being mean for no reason
i finished the heavensward fishing questline
queue times are long for DPS players, often over 15+ minutes
just keep waiting
being told to shut up, being called a bad healer etc
hence being a bit strange
Oh then I wouldn't know, sorry
you should buy Krill, ragworms and plump from the vendor by the fishing expedition npc @tranquil wolf
healers and tanks generally get instant queues
the severity seems to be random
okay noted
I want my phial of fantasia, its been 6 hours 
So don’t go in solo ok
ive seen people get banned for no reason that didn't even use party chat
you quite literally cannot go in solo, the queue will pop when people fill
Try just restarting the launcher. Sometimes it chugs real hard.
Oh
when you are a higher level, you can enter the dungeon and 1 shot everything
but right now just wait for the queue to pop
DPS players have to suffer long queue times
Rip
this... this is literally almost cheating
so what is best bait to use for 7pm?
this is debatable, but changing the default settings used in xivalexander can absolutely be cheating
the default settings are "acceptable"
it's in the same vein as using ACT
thanks 🙂 got it sorted now 🙂 I had gained like 4 lvls just killing stuff hoping for a drop XD
yeah but act just looks at data, it doesn't actually change anything
It says forming party and I’m the only one in, with it also saying it’s been 6 mins since I started queuing up for the dungeon, is that how it goes?
i already mentioned earlier that solo DPS queues can easily take 15+ minutes
i'm assuming you're on an NA datacenter so language options won't help you here
Dps ques on average are around 10-15mins
what did you queue for
Depends on prime time
they're queueing for sastasha lol
It says duty ready now
unfortunately, dungeons like those got shafted pretty bad with recent updates
also i'm pretty sure ACT nowadays does a lot more than just look at data
it intercepts packets now
Thanks
of course, it's still a gray area anyway
even with leveling roulette, sastasha in a lot of cases cannot be picked for it because people are specifically requesting dungeons no less than 10 levels below them
and most people are above level 25
but anyway I have no idea how to set up xivalexander so I can't help there
all I know is, don't change its default config or it will absolutely be cheating
and when SE drops the hammer on people injecting into their DDL, whether you were cheating or not won't even matter
there are legitimate reasons to use xivalexander for players who are on high ping
does the newest nier raid that drops 520 have a weekly lockout?
as far as I am aware, all restrictions were lifted except the coin that is once a week
Yeah I believe lockouts are gone at this point.
is that raid the best way to farm 520 gear then? or am I missing something outside of cryptlurker stuff and that raid
At what point am I going to need to be a specialist to craft things? 2 star? 3 star?
it is most certainly an option
to get gear
is it the best? depends if you really like the nier raid
check pins in this channel for my gearing guide
but it is most certainly not the quickest way
i520 is very easy to obtain
im dirt poor so cant afford the crafted gear
is there a guide to take full advantage of the moonfire faire event?
when the moonfire faire event releases, then I'm sure there will be
it changes per year
there's options aside the crafted gear
You literally just do the fate once
It’s happening rn
wait what
Get gold
thank u!
it's out?
Yes
namely, i510 drops from e9-e12 normal and cryptlurker gear for revelations
oh?
One gold ranking in the fate for the quest
bozja and zadnor gear too
okay thanks
Unless you want fireworks for some reason
what the heck SE, today is Friday
isnt Eden non pugable (cant auto queue for it) or maybe im wrong
depends on your data center
It is
Normal nodes are designed to be duty findered
e9-e12 normal can just be matched in DF
if you want the i530 gear from savage then yes you should use PF
but that's not "non-puggable", you can still pug savage
I see
the pinned document is very scaled down and blurry btw, is there any different link to it
If you hit open original it should be better
is there a place to find fate farming groups for relics?
How do you get more glamour prisms?
party finder, or go to the zone and shout
are you free trial?
Is that end game currency?
no, you've been getting GC seals your whole entire game
ever since you joined a grand company at level 20
Oh wait yeah, those seals
you may need to rank up a few times with your GC before prisms are available to purchase
Sweet, much thanks
but it should be very easy to unlock prisms
Right right, I'll have a look
so my friend is do the free trail on steam
where does he get the registration code?
i forgot
when do we get our endwalker mount?
When endwalker releases
Are there any really specific ways to optimize ocean fishing scores? or is it really up to luck more than anything
Knowing when to double hook
I asked a similar question before, but when does FF14 become somewhat challenging?
Im level 32 and I died a single time because our healer decided to pull some group of mobs during a bossfight, otherwise people seem to ignore boss mechanics in the early dungeons and it works out either way
Mobs in the outer world are way too spread out and run at maybe half the speed of my character, I have never really felt to be in any danger in the outer world, invisible walls wont let me even accidentaly suicide.
Im not claiming to be good, but I just find it quite hard to die atm which is kind of surprising
any blue quests worth reading other than hildibrand, crystal tower and raids with alisaie?
to be honest with you? never unless you enter extreme, savage, or ultimate
Nothing is truly difficult unless you do endgame content
When you get to higher end content like extremes and savages
Game doesn't even try to kill you until then
the entire rest of the game is designed to be casual
Most of arr lacks challenge due to general power creep over nearly a decade
you can argue some MSQ trials are harder than your average dungeon but even those aren't that hard
Stuff in later expansions can be challenging enough but the main story is all still casual content
If you don’t do mechanics, you’re going to die. But that’s like all content
You're still mostly in the tutorial
but even dying isn't a big deal
So when I get into the paid content it becomes tough? Good to hear, thank you 🙂
someone will just scrape you off the floor
you have access to ARR and HW extremes and savages on trial
You have access to coils, arr and HW extremes and Alexander savage
Each expansion has high end content
doing them synced is quite difficult
Even the extreme trials are difficult with all new people
You’re barely halfway through a realm reborn so I’m not sure what you expect at this point
well I expect to die occasionally like in other MMOs if I play bad, but in FF14 I basically have to actively suicide up until now. In other MMOs I played more I wouldve died a bunch of times even though I know them
You're thinking of it like a typical mmo
It's a final fantasy game first mmo second
That's the out and out design philosophy
also it's a casual game through the MSQ
The game is designed so that anyone can play it even little timmy
and when we ignore the single boss mechanic as a group Id expect us to lose but it really didnt ever matter so far 😄
like closing the adds from that fish boss
it's trying to appeal to a wide audience so even your grandma can play it
Grandma parses only 100 on SAM
With the various job changes and introductions you can skip most early mechanics
Hi Im almost at the endgame and I want to do high end/savage content but idk how go about it or where to start I guess the first step is farming good gear but after that ?
You can try MINE if you want to play it as “it was meant to be played”
Party finder
MINE= min item, no echo
First step is finishing more msq including the patch content as the current raid tier is locked behind 5.3 at minimum
alright, Ill look into it and progress in the story 🙂 thank you all!
Im pretty sure I will finish all MSQ tomorrow I think thats why Im asking haha

check my pinned gear guide document in here
getting to i510 entry level for savage is incredibly easy
After that, upgrading gear is priority #1, you're pretty much expected to have a average item level of 520 at this point
Investing time into a shadowbringers relic could also be a good idea as the final form is best in slot universally

Hey so I had to create a different account for square enix store and couldn't log in with my ff14 acc..my question is if I buy the complete edition for 23.99 it will email me a code that I can just enter?
Hi, I'm having trouble with launching the game, it worked fine yesterday but today when I try to start the game I get a message in japanese and I can't figure it out, anybody got a clue ?
need to go to the support desk menu and report harassment
have to open a ticket specifically in-game and describe it as harassment
Lmao thats like the 20th time i've seen that SC this week
Get them sent to horny jail
BONK
That’s funny
yeah it's a fuckin meme
Yes, there is an ff14 jail
macro has been around for a while
._.
Is there a way to track damage on a target dummy in the game or do I need to download a third party software?
the latter
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
Thanks!
Note the final paragraph and don't be a dick
hey,can anyone please tell me how to stop auto update of subscription ?
Cancel it
Cancel subscription button on mogstation
I wont lol. Just wanna make sure I'm efficient
in addition to ACT you can also use the in-game method of stone, sky, sea
but SSS is flawed
Is there any 15% FC I could join ? ^^
I'm looking for the theme song that plays when on 3.4 patch after we fight WoD
!faq sss
- SSS does not account for a job’s RDPS contribution via skills like Battle Voice
- SSS is a 3 minute burst window where you adjust your rotation to fit in that period and does not reflect a realistic raid scenario
- Different jobs will be in peaks and troughs of their burst windows
- Different jobs have different SSS dps requirements
- SSS is not accurately tuned for the jobs they are supposed to represent in most cases
- 3 minutes is short enough to be able to be affected by lucky DH Crit bursts
- Certain jobs gain dps by having additional party members like Dancer/Monk
I think is a remixed of the Main Theme from the game but I can't find it
wont i loose the remaining time i have if i press cancel?
No
ty
Is there passive positionals against the player, like how theres better hitrate against flanks/rear?
Is that a thing when mobs hit your back and such
No
Alrighty
How quickly will ACT likely be updated when 6.0 comes out?
stat squish too
What does ACT even do tbh
Read the damage log
Besides make me sad about how little damage DF groups do
And does monkey abacus maths
iirc it's a tinybit more sophisticated now
is there a way to make gathering faster?
i believe it intercepts packets and calculates your DPS that way
With a few more things but yeah
sometimes ignorance is bliss
ACT is not for DF. I don't even bother opening it on extremes, except maybe the most recent fight on release day.
When do the White Mage get to unlock the Gauge? Lol XD
52
Ok. Thank you :D
@gritty oraclewhy would u not always be looking to see if ur top dps?
!action afflatus solace
Specifically is the lvl 52 job quest
because that is what gives you the trait, secret of the lilies
because let's be real, a competent player is going to be #1 dps almost all the time
in DF, gear level can skew DPS massively. You can rotation your heart out and still be outdone by an idiot 20 ilvls ahead of you.
Does anyone have any guesses to when the mog shop will go on sale this year
hasn't it literally just gone on sale today

besides the new stuff today lol
🤷♂️
store wide sales are rare
@gritty oracle@robust crow fair points fair points.
we dont know when the next major store sale is gonna be
What item on the shop? There’s always a few on sale
might have one during christmas
oh ok ;; I saw last year around this time there was and was hoping this year there would be too
Wait isnt the endless summer top craftable ?
i swear we have an exact same shirt like that
@desert ravinethe content of that image is not quite appropriate for this server so i deleted it
!iglam endless summer top
male one
no pretty sure that one's model is unique
and can send a support ticket via the escape menu somewhere
!aglam male hyur endless summer top
i guess the summer indigo shirt is close
but it's not unbuttoned like that is
!aglam male hyur summer indigo shirt
closest thing would be the moonfire vest
for open shirt
but even that's not 100% the same
glamour is the true endgame
yeah but also i don't want to keep spamming glams here so #glamour-discussion
is delubrum reginae savage unsyncable?
what is good bait to use on 1st?
actually, y'know what, I don't even know how exactly you queue for DR Savage
its also through an NPC
since normal DR you just talk to the NPC and get matched, or you join a PF alliance

is i130 poetic gear worth grinding for?
thanks
if you're still working on msq, you do not need to go out of your way to get a full set of ironworks
the gear given from the msq will cover you just fine
that said you should use what poetics you have to get the weapon and then chest/pants at the very least
if you have the patience to run MSQ roulette every day, you'll get a full set naturally
it's worth doing since MSQ roulette is a huge amount of exp
as they're the biggest boost of dmg
if this is for an alt job, then ye its pretty decently worth getting a full set
i have the weapon i am just past praetorium of MSQ
yeah, if you ever want to go back to prae
hit up msq roulette
getting prae in msq roulette is a ton of exp
? 90% exp, 50-rested, 30-earring, 10-FC, other class is getting 200. Shouldn't it be 190% including armoury bonus, where is the 10% coming from
so do daily roulettes and MSQ
the big one is leveling roulette
you don't have to do MSQ roulette if you don't want to
but if you just want something to afk through then you can
Is there guilds in FF14?
How do you join one?
Free Trial can't join one, right?
no
Wait no to "join" or no to "can't"
you cant on trial
ok lol
Trial can't join the Guild aka Free Companies
did the relic weapon steps change? cause the guide i'm following says i need to get thanvarian scale powder from rowena in Kugane but the quest marker only said to purchase it from Auriana...
lol you that Zerk from DFO @vagrant crescent
what's the key to open guild thingie to join a guild?
Maybe ;O
LolXD
Surprised few people noticed me here, lol XD
you want to try the community finder. We don't have a option in game.
Link: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/community_finder/
nah you are lol I remember you
scalepowder is purchaseable from numerous NPCs
you still need 4 per relic
your first 4 is free
is there a secret to bind Shift + Numpad keys
Lol XD
so it won't say in game that you're apart of a guild?
lol
is there any way to make an item dye-able if it isn't already?
@spark silo no
damn
depends on the item
thanks
there are certain items that can be augmented, and once done so will be come dyeable
many items have a dyeable version
you will have a tag when you join a free company. You just can't open a menu in the game to find a free company. You can look at people's free companies and apply that way. But if you are looking for a certain type of FC, try the community finder.
sometimes there are dyeble versions of the item you want to use
what are these things
what are item were you hoping to dye
is there a website or resource where i can look up specific items for that?
this one
spear of the behemoth queen
