I mean you can que as healer for dailies and be in fast ques
Hmmm okay
I’d boost monk to avoid positional for 70ish levels lol but you could use the practice. Either that or bard. I wouldn’t recommend boosting the healers since queues are non existent for the most part
SCH (healer) and SMN (caster dps) share levels/exp, if you want an easy double job level too
I think Bard would be my preferred dps choice in general
I believe it would be that yes given where it is
finally
shudders at the mere thought of a monk
Monk looks so fun tho!
Yeah it’s fun. I mained bard thru 60.
Boosted a monk recently and damn are there lots of things to be on top of. Good DPS though
but how do i increase it. im just lvl 49 XD
i have despised monks ever since MoP in wow
Better gear basically
Monks in WoW are fun too 😦
Ideally you want High Quality gear
i am leveling
Yes
But I've always been better with rdps classes so I never committed to a mdps
Changes nothing
u dont buy or craft gear if youre leveling
How do people get those really nice screenshots, is there a special like mod/plugin or is it just knowing how to manipulate the camera + shaders? (Not counting like modded clothes/faces/poses)
can do /gpose for some like, advanced effects
Some people might run some sort of reshade on top
If i play from the very beginning how long till i can reach the end of shadowbringer story?
A month?
Someone got a really good shot of my bnuuy and I was wondering how they did it
Really depends on queue times and how fast you read and realistically what else you do other than main story (I do recommend doing raids when you get them)
I got to like halfway through HW in about a month, but I also watched every cutscene and did multiple classes
And some dude quests
I’m on month 3 apparently (started beginning of June) and I’m only still in Stormblood instead of post Stormblood because I got bored of the story for a bit
Also wow autocorrect just hates me. Side quests not dude quests
Currently trying to run a memoria misera ex practice runs aka trying to get people to teach me how to do it, just need 1 tank and 1 damage
@topaz basin if you play a ton and grind only MSQ then a month is probably right
but if you get distracted at all, and you will, it will be longer than that
Who's the worst character on ARR and why's it Alphinaude
Lvl 47 is the level I can unlock Aurum vale, right?
No
Gotcha
It's not that bad
People can just mess up the first room and that's it
it's required for one promotion quest in the grand company, at least for immortal flames
That’s still optional stuff
ey guys!
Probably will but not said
i hope it doesn't bring any problem this question but
i want a dps meter to practice against my dummy!
!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.

There you go

What GC rank do I need to be able to buy the glamour prisms
can i increase my chocobo speed?
!faq mount
'When can I get my first mount?'
The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.
'Are there any differences between mounts?'
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.
'Can I make my mount faster?'
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.
because I have a couple of friends on crystal buuuuuuuuut I keep reading it's a RP data center
You can still raid on crystal
so should I pull the trigger on crystal?
im new to multiple-tanking in general, done the crystal tower raids a few times now and is there a way of telling who is gonna be the main tank, or is it just provoke first?
If you have friends there then sure
Whoever stances/pulls first
rip a hosue costs 3mil+
If a hosue costs 3mil imagine a house
Sometimes it's a bit nice to have all 3 with tank stance on when clearing rooms with lots of mobs but honestly when we go to a boss area I just turn off tank stance knowing someone is going to keep it on. If I'm really unsure I just check if they got it on
is there a guide to make gil?
how can i enter novice network
whats a novice network?
what if the person become a mentor
Don’t
okay
Then you just press the leaf button by chat
Only 100 mentors can be in the chat at once
any advice on what i should do to form a group for Alexander svg?
eh idk about that one xD
does the sale thats currently going on happen periodically or is this a one time thing?

sale o.o?
the complete edition is like 60% off right now. I want it but I have barely touched the free trial so far and i feel itd be stupid to start the monthly fee until i have felt things out.
i think it said the sale will only go through the 18th
but if it is likely to pop up again, which is what im asking about, then I wont sweat it
how i use these?
how are login queues rn for eu, they were p bad an hour ago
you do get 30 days with it. I was on the trial with steam but was only level 8 so switched to the SE version
it was like 50ish USD on steam but $24 or so through SE
Ye u can play every job on the same toon
!faq meta
What's the most important crafting stat?
I'm trying to decide which materia to grab from the Level 60 job quest.
Thanks.
I got kicked out about 15 mins ago and been sat in a 1600 queue. Currently its not even moving
stuck at 181
which class unlocks reaper
None
so how do u play as a reaper
Reaper is a stand alone like GNB or RDM
It's not out yet
get to 80 and own endwalker after november 19
Be lvl 70, own EW, profit
Depends on how you define it I guess
Samurai and black mage tend to have the highest personal damage but they don't buff other people
no i mean the basic ones
Oh easiest?
for character creation
Well black mage you can start as
The best dps is the one played well
Starts as thaum
But as Vinyl is getting at there isn't really any meta job that is better than others
what abt gladiator and lancer
It really is whatever you want to play as
Gladiator is a tank
Lancer becomes dragoon
can i play as dps even if i am gladiator
@leaden ginkgo depends which role you are into and if you prefer ranged or melee
No you're a tank
Certain classes are for just one role. A tank class will always be a tank, a dps class will always be a dps class and so on
Gladiator is a tank only
You can be every class on the same character but yeah you can't literally be glad and be a dps
There's no cross roling
You'd have to unlock a DPS class and swap to that
Hello! I started playing yesterday and I'm already stuck on a quest. I need some lvl 5 gear items but all I have are lvl 1. What is the best way to upgrade my gear?
oh
hey someone knows why the connection issue 90002 happens
You just need to buy a hat
@forest patrol in the same settlement as the quest giver there is literally a vendor that sells item level 5 stuff
And yeah you just need a hat
You're already wearing ilvl 5 gear
Ah thank you :D
@leaden ginkgo playing a tank gives you faster queue times and as a marauder (warrior) you get great dps and self healing
Okay so I just reached the second credits screen for Stormblood, can I watch the Shadowbringers trailer or is it spoilery?
ok
@waxen siren uhh, it teases some stuff in Shadowbringers but generally that is where people would have seen that
Depends on if you count the teases as spoilers and ehhh
Ah ok, I’ll prob watch it after I do a bit of the msq then
shadowbringers trailer really just spoils the end of stormblood
most of the trailers spoil the end of the expansion before
Does SE release info on which jobs are being tuned up/down before endwalker releases?
We get a media tour that allows content creators to get hands on with a Beta version
Thar basically gives us all information about combat
how long does it take to get purchased item delivered? i bought Striker mount and after 2+ hours still waiting for delivery
Ofc any numbers from it are subject to change
What's the best way to go about getting 510 gear if you have no gil?
But the core premise of features and general rotations can start to be fleshed out
Eden and nier raids
Does beta show off story aspects?
No
They pick the least spoilery dungeon they can
Like shadowbringers media tour was a run of Dhon mheg
Could be 5 hours, could be more. 4 hours is normal on a SLOW day, you can try to retrieve items from the server by talking to a Delivery Moogle tho.
Is there a way to see what type of bait is required for a fish, in game? I can see where to go, or what my biggest is, but not the type of bait I need? Seems weird
Nope, trial and error
Guess the wiki is a permanent second monitor spot
Hey guys, if i didnt do the main quest from a beast tribe, and i do other missions, and the bar is full, does that xp storage for when i do the quest ?
Well not the xp exactly, the beast tribe points
Nope
tried many times, oh well, ill wait
Oh k!
Which profession is the fastest to get to lvl 19 for 'Disciple of the Hand'?
None is faster than another really, so any.
Does changing GCs reset your progress?
Yes, but it saves progress from your last one - if you change back to one you've already had, you'll be where you left off when you changed off it.
Boo
if i dc in potd solo is it an automatic death? or do i actually have to die?
can I respec my chocobo companion?
how does this guy have white ironwork armor
Prob dyed it
how do you do that
Jeuss christ, 10 hours on ffxiv, go touch grass
What quest unlocks Alexander savage?

ive played for longer its fine
now, how do you dye
do the quest "Colour your world" in vesper bay, and then have the appropriate colour dye in your inventory. many can be be bought either from a vendor or marketboard
Unlock dye in vesper bay
I think theres a quest in waking sands that allows
right click on the gear you wanna dye and select 'dye'
Vesper bay, waking sands. Same thing
oaky

Just look for someone with blue icon
I literally said what the name was
alright
no i mean the npc name
whats glamour
2 days if you're like me that plays a game for 10 hours+ a day
the system that lets you make one piece of gear look like another
where do you buy white dye
hi chat, why can't I play any of these anymore? this morning I could do them as a free trial but now it says I can't do them
Snow White and Pure White dyes cant be bought from a vendor, usually. (Snow White can be bought from Ixal Beast Tribe)
So, Market Board - or craft Snow White yourself
My fantasia is not coming in the mail
noOoOooO
Wow thank you
If its been less than 9 hours since you bought, keep waiting. Oh and, keep trying the "retrieve items from server" button at the delivery moogle
Is there a way to refresh it?
how do i get pure white?
Only from the Market Board, reliably. Or you can buy some on the cash shop, or use tokens from "Recruit a friend".
Its not easy, which is why Pure White and Jet Black are usually way more expensive on the marketboard
is there any chance that support replies in the weekend ?
only market board?!?! aaaaa im on free trial right now
Snow White is MUCH cheaper and is liable to dye the same as pure white on armor like ironworks
so don't go for pure white asap
oh
Yeah sorry, even if you could market board it usually costs more than your gil cap even allows, as you can see
I'm after leviathan and fighting heretics in dragonhead. How far am I away from heavensward?
still a few dozen patch quests
from a vendor
not unless you do ixali
Egghhh
patch quests
whats ixali?
correction
they're a tribe of bird people you can help out by doing daily crafter stuff
Snow White works good. If you have a crafter job at level 30, you can actually make it yourself
Otherwise yeah, Ixali Beast Tribe quests (which are used to level crafters anyways)
Getting a crafter to 30 isnt hard tbh, doesnt take long
level 30 on a crafter is not at all hard to get, and gathering grey pigment is also pretty easy
ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
i just wanted to color my ironworkssss why do i have to do so mucuuUuhc
Glamour is the true endgame, man
What you’re doing
bone white dye
Making things pretty
I dont see the retrieve items from server button
is bone white dye really white
does anyone remember the level 70 pld quest? what happens if i choose ||Nothing|| as the reward, what specific dialogue will happen
More yellow, Here's Ironworks Fending gear in Bone White
Do your job quests
Sorry, its this one
But again, give it like 9 hours and see if it shows up as well
does the poetic reward from this quest reset?

hey guys, does the free trial status affecting your queue time for entering the dungeons ? mine is always between 8-15 minutes to enter, not sure if this is because less people playing low level dungeon or not
Turn these on, especially if you're on JP
Note that that time frame is normal for DPS jobs, only tanks and healers generally get short (5m or less) queues. Generally
What's the command for all the jobs I can get in HW and ARR
oh i didn't know you can do that, thanks for the info
!faq hwjobs
Heavensward Expansion Jobs: Dark Knight (DRK, Tank), Astrologian (AST, Healer), and Machinist (MCH, Ranged DPS). These jobs start at level 30 and require the completion of the level 50 main scenario quest "Before the Dawn".
Since the 5.3 update DRK, AST, and MCH are now included in the free trial/Starter edition of the game, though the unlock requirements are still the same.
Job Unlock Locations:
Dark Knight - Ishgardian Citizen at The Pillars (13,9), quest name is "Our End".
Astrologian - Jannequinard at The Pillars (15,10), quest name is "Stairway to the Heavens".
Machinist - Stephanivien at Foundation (8,10), quest name is "Savior of Skysteel".

Guys what is the best way to farm revelations for lvl 80 armour
According to Garlandtools,
||"...Nothing? Truly? Very well, if the champion desires naught, then the prize shall go to the next in line.
Aldis. Though this was not to be your day, you fought outstandingly and may rightly stand tall. Ere I grant you your prize, however, there is one thing I would know.
I am given to understand you were sentenced to exile for being party to bribery. Is this true?"||

I bought six years ago.
ive just unlocked dancer. the gear set i get from the job quest is missing the belt and the jewelry. where can i find these?
I'm only missing the second and third expansions.
If you own starter edition then shadowbringers is all you need
Poetics in idyllshire
So I'll be able to get experience to get me to level 70 during the final Heavensward campaign quests?
No
ty. if im low on those is getting gear from dungeons while lving fine?

Uldah
Thanks! Time to fail at soloing POTD 900 times, cya in 3 months
hey so, NIN is the last job im doing and im at the point where i can get my soul stone, but Jacke will for some reason will not give me the lvl 30 ROG quest. wondering if i maybe am missing some prerequisites?
Msq
im in ishgard, and have done sylph management
so is that it?
all my other classes are past 30 and have their job, except for NIN
so im wondering why this quest is different
Have you done the not 30 ROG quests
Are you sure it’s a rogue quest?
Is spamming trials as a tank the best way to get Poetics?
all of them up to 25
That's the worst way
!faq poetics
on the wiki it says the quest name is Market for Death and the quest giver is Jacke
But what does the game say
unlocks Shadow Fang action as well, which i dont have yet
the game, Jacke does not have a quest bubble above his head
The Msq tracker
So it says Market for Death
it says "???"
Under it
No under it
ohhh, it says sweet sorrow
Not the MSQ itself
Go do that
hi guys
Then you need to do that
ah ok, lol, i guess i was in the middle of a ROG quest and just forgot to do it, thanks lol
i bought some mounts in the cash shop website and i haven't recieved them yet
how long is the delievery?
It can take 24 hours
Yes
up to 24h more as often a lot faster
It can take anywhere from instantly to 24 hours but usually not more than a few minutes
but with busy server and the ddos on eu its probably slow
Because EVERYONE is buying stuff
i guess im stuck with this crappy grand company chocobo mount
how do i level fast from 1 to 20?
https://i.imgur.com/Ln09rQ1.png what is the 3rd camera angle setting by default?
so to materia enhance gear do i need to get crafter to 20?
No, just use melder npcs
After unlocking melding
You only need crafters to self meld and overmelded
you do main story quests
https://i.imgur.com/MFauRPa.png what should i do to lvl my crafters to 80 from this point, idk what i should actually be doing currently.
Hunting logs

how do i unlock flying on expansion worlds?
!faq flying
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
Hey, i'm just looking to play bard so i've look at all skills but i'm not sure how works the bard for aoe cause i see some of aoe and skills need to have dot apply so for aoe you need to apply your dot on every target ?
this is the tribe unlock quest, there's a questline that leads up to it
Are savage raids considered different from regular raids for first time completion?
You dot 3 jobs
Yes
Separate duties
what ?
You dot 3 mobs
At least
For procs
You can dot more mobs while running if you want
@leaden ginkgo iirc there are 2 questlines in the dwarf village, which starts with the aether side quests
You need to finish those
thanks
i dont see any quests mentioning ronit
Have you gotten to the top ofnthe cliff on kholusia? @leaden ginkgo
"previous quest: ronitt to the rescue:
you have to do some random quest before that i forgot what it i was but i got stuck there and had to look up prequel quest,,,thats what it is check the previous quests and make sure you have them done
And you have time to dot 3 mobs during a pack ? cause you need 3 * 2 dot * 2.5s = 15s to only apply dot, the pack is already dead ?
Yes
considering ive finished 5.0-5.3 yes
@leaden ginkgo cool. Follow the link from @swift fjord should tell you what you need
Basically they're all blue quest icon 
20s to pull a pack ? 😮 that's huge, i maybe need to look at a video to know how dungeon works then, it's not like wow
People wall pull here
Whenever possible
2 packs minimum
And while you're running between packs you can dot mobs
Okok so for every dungeon you can pull multiple packs at the same time so when you're running for the second pack it's where you apply dot ?
Yes
Early dungeons are rougher to big pull due to lack of skills but big pulls are expected post 50
So that's a problem for the black mage ? due to the long cast time, he cannot damage during those 20s to pull ?
Not to mention they more than make up for it given what they can cast when the tank stops
then they are way worst than other job for dungeon ?
where do i farm this stuff btw
No
They are probably one of the best, Opposite that
They're not
You don't need to dps while the tank pulls
Cause there is the risk of ripping aggro
Dotting is fine cause it's a small amount
But going fucking ham like triplecasting flares will fucking rip aggro
Zurvan Extreme is the only place it drops, for farming.
Okok that actually seems a bit strange for me ahah i maybe need to look at some endgame dungeon then 😄
Everyone waits until the tank finished pulling then murdwrs
Tank does their best to just pull and hold everything as quick as they can, DPS go ham once they have everything together
Jobs with dots can apply as they run
Can someone explain to me Ishgard restoration? I’ve been told, if I want to level crafting, just go there and forget the rest?
smn has one dot that requires cast time, the other dot not.
Okok so jobs like black mage just run during those 20s ?
what is best way to farm timeworn artifacts?..
Yes, using whatever instant casts they want if they wish
Note: Dont forget the Crafter class quests tho, still do those when you can because you'll need the skills.
Speedrun DR
3 per run for 15mins
But overall, it’s true that I should just get through Heavensward and do Ishgard restoration?
https://i.imgur.com/HLRhFPV.png is this possible to solo unsync'd with a lvl80
Yes but it's not advised
I hear Ishgard resto is fantastic for leveling, yes. Havent used it myself, ever.
As far as Ishgard Resto guide, this is the only document I have handy so maybe someone else does it more often if you need help further
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vgtU7HFtG87TrJ9U47vnzkFMhSl5HKz7bjJhRXbxaas/edit
can i create a character in the chaos server or is my whole account linked to the light server
can only do 3x beast tribe quest per day?
For that tribe
why? it drops a mat worth 150k
You can create a char in the chaos server, absolutely.
Cause it takes alot of effort and time to solo
isnt it just 1 boss though
how do i do so?
yea but lvl80 unsync'd big damage
Okok thanks for all this help, i understand better how works the game then, and what about the bard capacity to damage in dungeon and raid ? is he good ? I actually play black mage but the looong cast time and the slide cast actually seems weird to me so i probably want to play a range dps without cast time
Only 3 per tribe as mentioned, but you can do 12 a day across 4 tribes
Ive been trying to do bigger pulls but I'm only like 41st I was getting down to like half health with 3+ mobs in stone vigil good to know its not expected until later levels
All jobs are good
Use your defensive Cooldowns
I do
guys how do you unlock flying in mounts?
How many times can I que for duty roulette?
Okok that's a good things and he's not too much rng dependant ?
thanks

Once per day, any past that is worthless
level 50 damn
You should only queue for each roulette once per day, if at all. Never do Leveling twice a day, for example
well technically infinite amount of times. but you only get the reward once per day
any past that is worthless
BRD is quite RNG dependent actually, more than most other jobs - but thats not a bad thing. Worth a try if you want to unlock it and level it, check out some videos about it at 80 if youre interested. They do good
🙂
I can que as a dps or only the role that they're looking for?
can you play ARR and Heaven without a subscription? mine has expired and telling me to pay
how do i play in the chaos server if i am in light?
If you own the game you need to sub
Any role you want, but some roles get a "bonus" to encourage people to fill. Thats Adventurer in Need.
You make a alt on chaos
When you load the game switch data centers
Ok tyvm
I actually have my first job lvl 52, there is a way to catch up xp fast with this new job if i try bard ?
u have to make a new char tho
when does tonberry start accepting characters again
When people get offline
so can we not earn old swim suit glam during this moonfire faire event?
i thought it was free up intil lvl 60 or some? unless thats only the free 40-60 days you buy it first
It's on mogstation
so people have to log off for me to make a new character?
The TRIAL is free to 60
How do I join a preferred server to get the road to level 70 buff? I’m a new player.
It's not free up to 60 for everyone
its free until HW
k just checking thx
Note that in general, Leveling dungeons (1-49, 51-59, etc.) cannot be "wall to walled" as easily as Level Cap dungeons (50, 60, etc). They are just tuned differently, so people dont always expect wall to wall in like, level 53 dungeon where they will likely expect it in a 60
oh yeah
the lv cap is 60
No its not, only for trial
for PLD what should I meld it with?
Is it possible to buy multiple pieces of subscription at once
There is a difference
Summoner and Scholar uses Pet Hotbar alot?
Like, if I want to buy a whole year of time
cool, only 5k people ahead of me
There are no Preferred servers in NA, or on EU - so if you're playing on English, dont wait up!
whats the level cap for free trial?
Can I buy two 180days at once
No, you just put rhe skills on your hotbar and hide the pet hotbar
Thanks im glad I haven't been doing it wrong
I think you can do half a year tops, but you can stack it (unless I'm mistaken)
You're capped at 6 months
So I can’t get the buff?
Oh ok. Thank you :D
You cant get the buff! And whats more is you shouldnt worry about it, youll likely be overleveled all the time even without it.
60! Only goes up to the end of Heavensward.
I bought shadowbringers and when I logged on my character I noticed that my level cap was still 60. Do I need to complete a certain msq or something?
Any tips for what to do if every single server on a data centre isnt accepting new characters?
keep trying, it's just based on total people logged in at the time
Okay, I just heard the grind gets really boring after awhile and was told that the buff really speeds things up. I’m new so I didn’t know about that. Thanks.
try to check again when we're not in peak hours
oh nooOOoo
Register the code on mogstation
I'm guessing EU, so just keep waiting and trying. After midnight is a good bet, but the WoW exodus is in full swing these days so it's rough I know.
when im subscribed whats the level cap
depends, if you own all the expansions 80
80 for shb
70 for stb
oohhh okay thanks
"only"
Yeah, EU. And also part of the WoW exodus XD. Although i did play before alooooong time ago. Non-peak is a pain due to me working 😒
Honestly your first job is carried to level cap by the MSQ so theres no real grind to worry about anyways for your first job.
You might even try leveling two jobs up with your MSQ, theres THAT much abundant exp
do "pc download" game time cards work for ps4? on square enix website
My main job is lvl 52 and i want to try / play a new one, so is there a way to catch up xp fast to continue the main quest story with this new job ?
!faq altlvlguide
yes game cards work regardless of platform
Is black mage a good class? I like mages.
Yes
Sorry meant to throw that down earlier
All are
cool thanks fam
i've got 2 jobs at 57/58 and i'm just starting hw lol
ty
Theres not a bad class in this game, just so you know - no such thing as "meta".
Black Mage is excellent, and fun!
Bet thanks
whats the better healer? scholar or white mage
Not much else ya do when a hundred thousand new players decide to hop over at roughly the same time, 9.1 was the best FFXIV patch we've had in a while
The One played better
Both, and Neither - they fill different roles so "whichever one you like most"
ohkay thanks
last one famwhats the difference between subscription and game time carD?
going forward, White Mage and Astro will be more "pure healers" and Sage and Scholar are slated to be "Sheild healers"
Not that WHM dont have sheilds and SCH dont have pures, but thats the roadmap
What server should I join as a new player?
!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
Any for your data centre
Yeah, I get that. I figured cos i had sub and all expacs it might not be as bad XD. I could just play my old toon which is on Odin but i kind wanna replay the whole thing since its been... probably 5 years since i played
Any one that you can find an open spot on, theres no differences and they are fillin up fast. Get in while you can 😉
I don't have any pc friends, currently on ps4. do I risk getting banned if i ask someone in party chat to parse me during raids or trials ?
I wouldnt risk it, unless its a friend you know personally or someone in your free company or whatever. It has to be someone you trust, never randos
avoid asking 3rd party tool stuff ingame
Can you own multiple houses?
No
no.
1 house per world (that means no houses for alts on the same world)
If you wanna know if youre doing well enough for an endgame raid tho, there is a dummy you can test on called "Stone, Sky, Sea". Its supposed to be tailored to your job and the damage you SHOULD be doing for XXXX fight. Try that out
@knotty lily how are people on ps4 meant to improve 😒, it's not like im calling out anyone's damage if I'm only asking for myself
Stone sea sky has been useless for me
it's still 3rd party stuff and technically forbidden to use
I just used a fantasia, but I can't change my appearance cuz server is overloaded (unable to obtain character data.)
can I change later when it's less crowded so it can load, or is my fanta lost? :x
Yeah I get you, you need a friend that you trust. Its rough but truly if someone rando catches wind and reports you for even mentioning it, your hands are tied
when buying cash shop item and i'm still in game do i need to relog for it to appear in my moogle delivery or can i just stay in game and wait for a pop up ?
How do I get more GP on botanist? I literally have a skill which costs more than my max GP rn
can wait for popup, tho it's kinda random when you get your stuff.
thanks
You can just stay, but it could take 9 hours these days so dont hold your breath
gear or food buffs
gear, like earrings rings etc give GP.
Where do I get gathering gear? Crafting it?
So when people say to do potd for leveling do they mean solo? Not sure how grouping works with starting from level 50 once it's unlocked
craft it or buy from vendors
No they use matched parties
I only saw an axe from vendors
Pretty sure you can buy some gears in city vendors in the market right?
do we have a quick link for raid lingo?
Wait, maybe change tabs xD
They mean with a matched party of randoms, doing floors 51-60 over and over again as thats what most others are doing.
Gotcha thanks
Maybe this helps? Dunno of one on this server although you can check #resources as well if they have somethin

I wanted to rename myself Ingame - it just tells me that it requieres to change the Name if I want to log in.
But if I click on the "Ok" Button it just disappears and nothing happens - no rename window or anything ;w;
I also already got the confirmation via e-mail
Am I close to the end of ARR? I've just reached Mor Dhona
thanks for the links, i'll read through it, i just dont understand PF sometimes
could be a fault of the eu servers getting slow
Heyo, does there exist a Bonus Light tracker? That tracks which dungeon gives bonus light for your relic weapon light farming?
Nope
what stats do i need for PLD?
how do i get the fell cleave quest
All trackers were player ran
Get to heavensward story
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Main_Scenario_Quests that might be helpful.
hello everyone ! I'd like to know at what date endwalker can't be preordered anymore
ah alright thanks
Alright thanks. Guess Ill just spam tam-tara 😄
Launch day
Spam ifrit normal
oh also does anyone know when the 60% sale comes off the complete ffxiv edition thingy
Launch day as in November 19th (early access) ?? or actual release
Actual release
tyvm 😄
Is it faster?
does the endwalker pre-order come with all the other expansions?
Yes, in November
How come servers say “NA LEGACY” what does that mean?
thank you I will try later ^-^
those were servers from the original release of the game
Eu is literally being ddosed
it makes no difference now
WHATS HIGHEST RANK fc CAN BE ?
30
oops srry caps
So is it better to join a non legacy one as a beginner
No
It literally means nothing to you
how come my levelling queue says lv 16 ?
That's the minimum level
because the second dungeon in the game is lv 16
do i need to run more to have iot go upo ?
so that's the minimum level to use the roulette
if i change GC, is it just their armor/weapons i get locked out of or would i not be able to use their housing items aswell?
no, it doesn't go up
o ok
that's just the minimum
ah
Tbh, you are on Aether and Asmongold is currently streaming, I'd put some blame on that
whatever leveling dungeons you can access at your current level are included
does anyone know if when I meld my resistance weapon will it keep the material when I upgrade it?
can i change it >
No
i just got in @agile laurel
manually ?
ty ty
to like 50 ?
No
ahh just too many dang dungeons to remember em all, heh must be like 150+
lol
How long does lodestone (in particular, the community finder) take to update
What's this landmark? I think I saw it from the Northern Strait of Merithor. Why is the tip of the mountain floating?
man whatever they use to pair up players ofr suties is bad ... list is past 50 ... w/ this many players on should be going like lightning
Don't quote me but I'm pretty sure that's Sohm Al
Can I only do the quest Pest Control once? :(
It’s definitely a dravania thing, because that shows on the log in picture
whats the maximum limit on allowances?
100
ok
It's usually not about the amount of players queuing up, unless it's dead hours, its about the ratio. There's much more DPS than healers or tanks, so as a DPS, you have to wait for the queue in front of you to diminish, and then a tank and healer
Thank you!
true .. and everyone on beach heh
is doing levelling duty roullette the best way to get xp and level 63
does it give an xp boost one time just for leveling?
It only gives rewards once per day
oh ok
Spamming it gives you nothing
ok then

@devout hollow holy shit so I'm not even halfway??? Whaaat
Remember - ARR is comprised of leveling MSQ, and patch content MSQ
Hey, i'm a black mage, how can i become and play bard ?
Equip the bow
once you have done your level 10 class quest, go to gridania and to the archer's guild
But how can i get the bow ?
.
should i buy lvl 60 gear (lvl 255) from the armorier?
lvl 10 class quest on black mage ?
yes
Okok ty
you need to complete your level 10 class quest on your first class to be permitted to unlock other classes
Buy i270 with poetics in idyllshire instead
thanks!
non-general purpose is usually from the store
mogstation store?
yeah
However tehre's no difference between general purpose and non-gp
It's only a distinction so that you can't just buy dyes from mogstation and sell them on the market
also what stats should i prioritize for my PLD?
Does anyone know if it logs me in automatically?
no
You gotta wait til midnight or early morning
So this whole " if you are on the free trial you cannot log in while there is a queue" thing... Is it buggy? because I've gone through a 1500 player queue twice without a problem.
Or does it specifically refer to only the full server queue?
Hmm. I started playing yesterday and was looking forward to it :(
On my server the current queue is around 300
Triangles
I logged in with a queue before
@forest patrol I feel you, any other time than around 21:00 seems to be fine.
Also, I think it specifically refers to the queue of letting people into a full server not the general queue
i realized im way behind in my msq, what should i do?
This
rip
If you're behind in story then you don't need gear
if the servers full, you wait in a queue to get in, you cant get that in free trial
Should I just pay for the game? I only started yesterday
just go to bed and wake up early
Haha
Same as, i paid for and used a fantasia, But i cant actually use it because the servers are borked 🙂
Seems like trial has many restrictions
not at all
yeah not really
just the queue thing, and maybe being unable to join an FC are the only major downsides imo
Well I can't even play 😫
no auction house and no whispers and no queue while trying to get into full servers. That's about all I've experienced
@forest patrol if you like single player story driven games then yeeah you'll love the game, assuming you survive ARR
and the slow start
I spend all day setting my hud and user interface
The way I see it, if you pay for the game now you need to pay earlier to renew your subscription. If you wait till you played through heavensward (or whichever is the free expansion) you'll have to pay later
yea I wanted to tell someone their guild description was cute but I got disappointed by the restriction rip x.x
just log in earlier.. shouldnt kick you, right?
no you get kicked if youre AFK
That's too late now poppi
yea for the future
same, also just started (lvl 30) - maybe we can play some day
No clue about Phoenix, Odins usually realllly bad when trying to visit, Im zodiark EU and like i said, ours is around 200 right now which isnt bad at all
Any gatherers here got recommendation on the goto food for perception?
it really isnt
well okay maybe for you but generally I'd also rather prefer the people that have bought the game :x
Vendor at the stalls
I'll just need starter edition?
I heard you should get the complete edition as it is 16€ rn
for everything , right?
Yes
Ah nice it's a discount?
Complete edition is a tiny bit more, but you get SB and ShB
Then I won't feel too bad
and honestly, ShB is a banger
when does this discount end, does anyone know?
And do I also need to pay for subscription after that?
Dunno but it started 6 months ago
you get 30 days with the purchase of complete edition
Then yes you need to sub
Thank you koala
When is the car mount that people are hyped for coming out?
Regalia, ie best girl, comes September
regalia has the same animation from xv?
The stall, where you turned in the quest
Can CWLS be advertised in the recruitment channels?
i just got over the intro cinematic(hear.feel..whatever..) and there's a guy talking to me, but his voice is not playing. is this normal or is my audio bugged?
Yes
noice
August 18
Normal
Most things aren’t voiced
okay
i can't get to gangos how do i unlock the airship to get to it ?
idk where to find it
Kugane after doing the lv70 24mans
he has nothing for me so im lost with that
what settings control the size of markers over npc's heads?
The Royal City of Rabanastre this one ?
i did all 3
!quest Hail to the Queen
Judging by the look of relief on Keiten's face, you have saved him a great deal of time.
Keiten
Kugane (X: 12.23 Y: 12.36)
Marsak
Yanxia (X: 16.32 Y: 8.59)
Shadowbringers
The City of Lost Angels
Path to the Past
If my game is on steam, i cant buy shadowbringers from Square enix store?
No
yea he dont have nothing for me which makes me lost
Check your completed quests for ivalice
ok
To see if you have city of lost Angels completed
by any chance do i need to finish the whole shadowbringer msq ?
The Base story
Just the base
oh cuz im on the waiting in the depths
Hello! I just now bought the complete edition so I got Stormblood and Shadowbringers. It said that it might take some time to process the payment. Do I eventually see the game on the FF14 site and my game code there so I can download the game? I already had the base game and HW via Steam previously.
Ok so
Did you buy the complete via steam
Because if not, you just bought something you can’t use
no directly via their site on squareenix
Once you start on Steam you’re locked into steam
oh
You’ll need to see if you can get a refund, and you’ll have to rebuy complete via steam
They’re very much not interchangeable
oh boy
It says very specifically in the description about the steam thing
But the description should have been easy to understand, right?
just saw it as 16 euro instad of 34 like on steam
ngl, it was not easy for me.
seeing as I am here now
No no, not the use of the site. I mean the ability to click a product, and scroll to the description so you are sure you’re buying the right thing and something you can use
You should always do that, no matter what you’re buying
“Reading? In 2021? On god?”
What can i do to lvl up fast on the first lvl ? i've read the reddit post but i cannot queue for dungeon actually
ye I did that, it said it would include the base game and all expansion up to shadowbringers
That’s how you end up with clothing that’s the wrong size, incompatible software, and wasted money
I did not see anything specifically about steam
is there autorun in ff14?
I even logged in via steam on their site
hi i have a problem logging in for last couple of hours on all my characters i get (unable to obtain character data) is something wrong with my game or are the servers full?
right there in the product details
Character data doesn't stop you logging in
Are you on trial?
yes
If you’re on trial, you might not be able to log in…dang it
Too slow
But yeah, that
ohh ok ty for the help
Are there health potions for lvl 70?
how does that work
