Do I get to beat up Alphinauld? I am so sick of him,..lol. đ
nop
That's kinda par the course for SMN
whats the percentages for fete present items?
Aside from DRK, which classes have the most relevance to the main story?
DRG meets || Estinien || before he factors heavily into the HW story
the canon WoL is also a MNK/SAM during SB, although that doesn't really tie into the MSQ at all afaik
Welcome to smn. It's a mashup of ideas and the devs are painfully aware of it
generally speaking the MSQ is fairly class agnostic, even ShB
how do you know this
he starts off an intolerable little shit but he gets Developmentâ˘ď¸
Expansion trailers
Because....it's literally in the trailer for SB?
well fester is really powerful tbh
ohhhhhh
yeah but is the trailer cannon anyway
i figured it was a what if
the trailers are the extremely generic but canon Warrior of Light
derplander is just a stand-in for your wol.
Right
And you can see him go through all his job changes in order during the ShB trailer
WAR (ARR) -> DRG (HW) -> MNK (SB) -> SAM (post SB) -> DRK (ShB)
you forgot archer đ¤
I didn't play 1.0 so I was never certain about that
I honestly think it's Alphi's ARR eng dub that makes people hate him lol. I play with JP dub and I don't really think he's bad even in ARR.
hey what do i do with the lightweight tomestone if i can't get mowen's phantasmagoria tokens anymore?
is there a website showing the best gear for each lvl?
right, he just winds up as a SAM when || facing Zenos in the Ghimlyt Dark ||
well he's sam during the far east section of the trailer for sb
Also true
You can buy the tokens with nuts
nuts?
shadowbringers hunt currency
that's unfortunate, but thank you i appreciate it
Residential districts
At which expansion can I use the other 2 Tomestones? I think it was Revelation and the other one. Not in-game atm.
What city
There's one for each major city except Crystarium and Ishgard
And Ishgard housing is coming in 6.1
Which one is most popular city for housing
Where is the most ERP
Limsa, probably
Limsa definitely lol
Shadowbringers
Hnnggg
Guess I'll end up capping them then. Still not even done with HW XD
Didn't know you could even get allegory or revelation before 80.
Huh, learn something new every day
It's with my Ninja which I only play for PVP.
is there a way to get 30 days gametime and not 60?
what npc do you trade gender locked cashshop items to?
Entry sub
so only the one you get when you buy the complete pack?
Calamity salvager, but they can only do specific ones.
No, you can do standard sub as well. I just mentioned entry because itâs cheaper
where can i find the entry sub?
where do you find them?
On mogstation...
how do u open daily roulette
ahhh found it
ayooo who wants to play some ff14 im kinda new btw im level 31 and im tryna get to 50 just gonna do some questing and chill?
i always look in the shop or amazon
I ported into Hawthorne Hut and the area looks really weird, like it's the spirit realm. Not just the sky is gray, but everything around me is as well. What's going on?
Oh, it's gone. But I'm still curious.
Did the weather say tension?
odin fate spawned somewhere in the black shroud
Ohhh. Is that Odin different from the trial one?
Very
yes
Closest one to an aetheryte is the Gridania one near the amphitheater
anyone wants to help me lvling my blu mage from 60 to 70 in kholusia :d?
how does Scholar/summoner works i just noticed that my summoner is lvl 61 and i havent touched it, does both jobs share the exp???
Yes
Cause they both have arcanist as base
You get arcanist xp
Not summoner/scholar xp
oh wow thats actually cool so oyu just have to learn the combos instead of leveling again
is there any other jobs that work like that??
No
sadge thanks a lot for the info
if I deleted my strife clothes can I get them b ack
Nvm
mentor roulette has guildhests??
yes
it has everything but savage raids and coils
^
o my god
hey how do i unlock the shadowbringers hunt
i thought i needed to finish the previous hunt quests but i can't pick any of them up
quick question if I'm world transferring do I still get the 3 million gil bonus if I remove the estate hall as well so it's just an empty plot of land?
!faq hunts
'How do I unlock Hunts?'
ARR Hunts: Be 2nd Lieutenant in your Grand Company and complete the quest 'Let the Hunt Begin' located at your Grand Company. You can promote to 2nd Lieutenant by talking to the Personnel Officer and buying promotions for seals and by completing the GC Hunting Log and the quests 'Shadows Uncast' and 'Gilding the Bilious'. This must be done to unlock HW Hunts.
HW Hunts: Go to Ishgard - Foundation at x13, y11.9 and complete the quest 'Let the Clan Hunt Begin' from Aytienne. Followup quests are 'Better Bill Hunting' from Eustacia, 'Top Marks' from Yloise in Idyllshire, and 'Elite and Dangerous' from Ardolain. This must be done to unlock SB/SHB Hunts.
SB Hunts: Go to Kugane at x10.4, y10.3 and complete all quests with 'Veteran Clan Hunt' from Estrild.
SHB Hunts: Go to The Crystarium at x12.2, 15.1 and complete the quest 'Nuts to You' from the Hume Lout. Afterwards complete all quests from Halldor at x9.5, y9.4.
So I've been saving up for Rebel Boots for a while, is 550k a good price for them, or should I keep waiting to see if something cheaper rolls around?
I still can't believe boots can be that expensive but they look great
Do I want to spend 100k per each piece of exarchic gear? Thatâs a lot
any Lost Actions I should bring for Castrum Lictus Litore? (am Rank 10 in Bozja, just unlocked Castrum) (or the other Bozja special things)
Damage boosting stuff
If it buffs your damage, bring it
Rest are basically useless
(lost death/Assassination is nice for the prisoners)
đđž
Complete the quest thatâs appeared outside
is the dodo mount rightfully priced? or is it overpriced and I am just stupidly stubborn for not doing HoH (don't really wanna try some new system at this point)
Price reflects its scarcity and how few people go for it
Check sale history to see what price people have been buying it for
uh rephrasing then , is it rare or is it rare for people to farm for it
Both

Thanks! After checking that, it looks like this price is pretty standard on my world
And looking around, it's not cheaper anywhere else I can go
with the expansions, do they let you pre-purchase and get all the expantions before the release of the new expantion or would it be same-day?
gotta wait until the new one
Hello! I was curious if I could still play with friends on different servers? for example i'm on primal and they are on aether
Same day
in 6.0 u will be able to
Not cross data centre no
Data centre travel testing is coming between September and November
ahh I see okay
on whether the queues will be cross dc
Barely any
thank you!
They said we could do duties while visiting and it's region locked at first
This is more of a technical question than anything
o nice
Tbh don't expect much until the live letter in September time near where the media tour happens
makes sense
But how much does Autoattack impact dps?
Like if you removed autoattacks entirely how much would change?
Can black chocobo not be used as a companion or be named?
No, only your company chocobo
Nope, only base Chocobo can

It can have a name in your heart
do congested data centers ever open up spots again? cause my friends are sadly in aether :/
Only when SE decides
When the wave ends
ah i see dang
Congested/standard/preferred is manually done by Se based on population data
So basically don't expect it to lift anytime soon
Try to get in before Endwalkwe
are there any long gloves glams?
That's when the gates will reaaaaally open
Aether will be locked probably until after endwalker
Depending how big of servee upgrades they can get in
Like you all think this is a big wave
rip
Endwalker will be a tsunami
well even tho I can't get in aether any time soon, I should still just play through the game so that I'm not behind them when or if aether opens up again, right?
Is my company chocobo able to fly in Heavensward areas or do I need to use the black chocobo
Oh ok
@thorny hawk Endwalkee will add Data Center travel anyway
You'll be ablr to play with your friends then
is it confirmed? about dc
Yeah
oh okay cool, thanks for the info!
It was one of the keynotes for the expansion
But we donât know the nitty gritty of DC travel
It will be more cross-DC interaction than we currently have
do these restore every 24 hours or is it a specific time of the day?
Daily reset
This is just an experiment to understand how different DCs work
To you American players: how many PFs are up for raids in your DC
I doubt Aether will still be congested by then
would these 2 work for Castrum?
But if it is, how would that work
Not instant kills that's forcsure
People would have abused the hell out of it by now lil
You only really need 1 death for prisoners...take something else to swap in after it so you dint have a useless slot
Does anyone know which skin tone the moon cat has?
https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/glamour/88940/purple-gunner
Probably Lucia
Looks like her armour
aight
It's right after aymeric as well so
her hairs white though, but im looking at images and in some lighting, she looks like shes blond
will ishgard housing have apartments as well?
Yes
guess im not buying an apartment until then
nah, it's blonde. platinum blonde, but blonde all the same
can you start dungeons/duties without having the staple team? ( tank, healer, 2 dps)?
Only if you use undersized party and get your own group together
so if I get my own group together we dont necessarily need a tank?
You would want one so you don't get slapped silly by the mobs
i just boosted for the first time, machinist is so easy and fun to use at potd, researched a bit and rotation doesnt change that much.
No cause it's unique
wait DoH
You need to augment one
you can use 2
Server
I just reached the arr credits does that mean I gotta do the lvl 50 dungeon stuff now?
or is there still a lot left
will that take roughly same amount of time?
got it, thanks !:D
Can you not do Delubrum Reginae at level 70?
Delubrum is 80 only
Well my Bard is level 71 and it's not letting me in :x
When is transfer servers do I still keep my stuff I bought from store?
Everything comes with you
Nothing is lost when transferring
Cause you have to give that up when transferring

so you need to complete enough msq til you can accept level 50+ job quests?
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
thanks
i was wondering if someone can help me out with a question about leves
i recently swapped from being a fisher to a weaver, and no matter where i go i can't find a leve
Early weaver leves will be in Ulâdah
all the levemetes don't have a quest, and i can't find a quest to trigger them
so I unlocked The Whorleater (Unreal) but I dont know where I find it
Duty finder > high end duties
they all say i'm "too green"
Did you unlock leves for fisher?
oh high end I never clicked that, ty
How much raids are in HW?
i don't recall specifically going and unlocking them - i never had a need for leves since the MSQ leveled me enough
Twelve floors of Alexander (8man), three 24mans
and i didn't get fisher too high
Try this quest
!quest leves of horizon
Ok
Eustace is responsible for assigning guildleves at the Quicksand, and is offering to give you an introduction to the world of levequests.
Eustace
Ul'dah (X: 12.09 Y: 9.09)
Totonowa
Western Thanalan (X: 23.2 Y: 16.57)
Way Down in the Hole
Leves of Wineport
Leves of Camp Bluefog
Leves of the Observatorium
Leves of Whitebrim
Leves of Saint Coinach's Find
Simply the Hest
Leves of Hawthorne
Leves of Quarrymill
Leves of Camp Tranquil
Leves of Camp Drybone
Leves of Little Ala Mhigo
Leves of Aleport
Leves of Moraby
Leves of Costa del Sol
Iâm doing the Alexander one now
i'll give it a go - thank you!
So post patch have the other three raids right?
Note you must be at least level 15 in your crafting class
Theyâre all in post patches
And theyâre optional not part of MSQ
is there a potion for pacifation?
not sure what you mean, but potions are pretty much useless
What's the fastest way to complete the Born Again Anima quest for the HW relic weapon?
(this step)
echo drops for silence, and what for pacifation?
potions are useful for deep dungeons
unfortunate
I'm new but want to buy the new dlc coming out, opinions?
Try the free trial
People run A9S for light farm
I just finished it but enjoy the game a lot
Hey so I just played the game for the first time and I had a blast playing. If I were to upgrade to the full edition. would it be better to buy the standard edition and preorder the new DLC or would I get the same by buying the complete edition?
If you want to continue playing right now you need to buy complete edition @lament anvil
Endwalker doesnât give past expansions until it releases
Preordering Endwalker will give you access to Shadowbringers but only when it releases in November
so I should buy endwalker if i'm looking to get dlc
If you donât plan on playing anything soon
Endwalker gives you nothing right now
how does doing a map with friends work
(Except an exp earring item code)
i made a party but when i started the map only I could attack the mobs
If theyâre in your party they can attack the mobs.
Nothing should be stopping them
for them it said it was part of my duty and they couldnt
I don't know if cross-server parties can participate in maps
if they came over from another world, you have to invite them after they switch
wow ok
whats that red heartbeat icon before a player's name mean?
so just disband and re-invite
ahh ok
I just finished the neir raid series. can someone pleas explain to me ||what happened to konogg?||
whats the diff between bait and lure? forgot the explanation
lure is reusabel
so just buy one?
or can they fail
it 'may' break
is there still a weekly limit to the coins from nier raids used to get the ilvl 530 cryptlurker?
sick
on that fishing note, does the level of bait matter, or really just the name/type
should I always use the highest level bait or thats not necessarily a thing
not necessarily, usually fish like bait around their lvl
so if youre going for a specific fish you want specific bait
specific bait,..means not level dependant then
I should keep my Goby balls then? ;p
How do you get tomestones
Do level 50/60/70/80 content
Do Lvl cap content
Or roulettes as a job at or above level 50
level 16 just means it's not possible to run it if you're below level 16
(because you would only have access to one dungeon)
Thatâs a great one for leveling
it remains a good roulette all the way up to level 80
You get more as you unlock more content
roulette scares me,. there are too many dungeons/trials to remember mechanics,..lol
The story auto-unlocks most of them as you complete content
There's a Guildhest roulette if you've unlocked guildhests, but don't worry about that one
the other roulettes will start unlocking as you get into level 50 content
Basically all of them come at lvl 50 duties
Okay so from what I'm seeing on the store it looks like the complete edition comes with everything leading to endwalker is that correct?
Yes
So I just hit level 50 but Iâm on level 45-46 MSQs
Okay cool.
How would I go about doing that? is it unsynced?
Of course Unsynced, youâre farming
Can I do that at level 72 or is it something that's only really convenient for level 80 jobs to do?
well obv unsynced would be better but I was mostly wondering if it counted
Get a whole group together, people still do Animas/help others with their anima
is your character's constant blank expression canon lmfao
nods are a way of life for the WoL
game makes quite a few jokes/references to the player character being stoic/nodding all the time
Part of the echo is telapathic nodding powers
Where do you buy level 60 vendor gear
ishgard or kugane probably
In my item search, why are there three slots that are labeled as "???"
Is there a way to wear multiple Hat? Like the actual hat and the glasses both at the same time for example? Thought that would be nice, lol XD
Only if the hat has glasses attached to it
is mahjong question allowed here?
That's a shame. Oh well, lol XD
I wish
Because the game can't access the inventories of your retainer or saddle bag in duties
Lol XD
If your character needs glasses then they canonically just get instant 20/20 vision by wearing a hat
Yes

ah okay! can anyone help to breakdown as to why this is not ron?
do i miss a yaku?
kinda confused 
Thinking about using my Fantasia to switch to female highlander or midlander
Any opinions
I just looked into it and I don't have any of Alexander unlocked yet at all. Would it still be a time efficient way to unlock it if I have to spend a ton of time unlocking savage?
What are you now?
Like I Just completed Disarmed and unlocked normal Fist of the Father
I dont think you get any yaku with that
you have an open set
without any you have to win with a closed hand
@leaden moth miqote, not a huge fan of the whole ears and tail thing
how many favored destinations am I allowed?
what does open set means?
idk the proper term
the 3 tiles you have open from the chi
you have one yaku from a closed hand
without that you have zero
Three, four if you register the companion app to your account
for zodiac atma step, you can do them as blu right
Well hyurs are probably the most modest race if you want to switch to one so you might like it
No, you need the zenith weapon equipped
Female highlanders have a funny dance tho
I got it cause I thought its suppose to give me a free one too but idk how to get it
crud
Very funny
japanese mahjong works differently than HK or SG rules if you're familiar with that
You just register it
Itâs a fourth favoured one, not a free one
What is the drop rate on desynthing things? Is it even known?
You only get a free one by enabling 2FA
hemm yeah i think this is it
I mean say getting master demimateria
Also their thighs are enormous if youre into that
yeah so many freakin rules lol
@leaden moth itâs more so that Iâm wondering if there would be a big impact on glamour compared to the two
JP mahjong is more strict with the types of hands you can make
like if some stuff would look hella bad on highlander and I should go for a safe option of midlander
I don't think there should be any significant difference
lemme check the yaku lists again lol thanks btw!
np
Anyone understand the Lavender Beds mapping? Someone shouted out something as âSarg LB W5 waterfallâ so I assume on Sargatanas Lavender Beds but idk where the âw5â part would be đ
Midlander is the most safe option I'd say, but anything should still look good on highlander
They just have the thighs
Ward 5
Its a pretty subjective question tho tbh
Iâll prob create two characters and compare in game
Question for controller players: I use R+buttons for single target spam abilities, and L+buttons for aoe spam abilities. That's worked out fine but as I level up I'm running out of buttons. Most example configs I see use two WXBR which I don't like because I have trouble double tapping or timing L->R vs R->L quickly. I was going to try a single target XBR1 and aoe XBR2. Anyone tried this, or anyone have any other ideas for setting up their crossbars?
worst comes to worse Iâll just Fantasia later again cause this ones the free drop from arrâs ending
Oh okay thanks! Not exactly sure where Ward 5 is or how to get there lol
yo what level is considered as a high level duty?
from the gridania aetheryte you can choose different wards to enter the residential area
Is a ilvl 60 with materia slots better than an ilvl 70 without?
Oh wow I didnât know that. Thank you!
materia doesnt matter at that level
just go with the higher ilvl gear
unless its an NQ crafted
I suppose. What about with higher ilvl gear?
hold up why's this important
NQ quality gear is worse than dungeon
or poetics gear
oh yeah of course
at the same ilvl
oh crafter gear
crafter gear is a little different
you'll still want HQ if crafted
Ofc
though i dont remember much of low level crafting to give advice
What I'm looking at in specific is artisan sandals vs. artisan patterns. Former is meldable, latter is higher ilvl. Looking at the stats, the sandals (when hq) only lack 3 points of control compared to the patterns...
No, two points in control.
And a single point in craftsmanship, and a few points in CP, all of which can be done better by way of materia.
Huh
Well that settles it
At level 18, have the Lominsian Envoy quest, wondering whether I should finish the Rank II Arcanist logs or just leave Limsa Lominsa?
In my item search, why are there three slots that are labeled as "???"
The logs you can do anytime. I'd say do em if you want the EXP. Also, finishing every last one gives an achievement reward ring, so there's that to consider.
Item search slots labelled ??? are found in unspoiled nodes. They only spawn at certain times and you need certain abilities to see them.
Yes
Garuda ex yes
Garuda ex and lakshami/deltascape for the other mount achievement
Are the main ones people do for tank mounts
Though if you want to multitask and also get the 2nd set of tank mount achievements, then Lakshmi EX will get it done too
how many runs do i need again
200
Uh... I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing, hold on.
Gathering log? Not seen ??? in any sort of item search...
This is what I mean.
You're in an instance, so it can't pull the data for those inventories
I'm assuming retainers
Oh derp, they are missing...
So I have a friend who wants to know if they could play with me if they got the ps4 version and I got the PC version
Dope.
yeah, just make sure you guys are in the same world
so you can be in the same fc together
can't
Gone forever
maybe in the future
I'm trying to cross Castellum Velodyna in Gyr Abania atm to finish my leatherworking quests but can't cross the bridge LOL
I've done the story quest "Crossing the Velodyna" and never attuned to The Peering Stones, not sure if I'm being dumb but how do you cross this bridge đ¤
ahh no npc on the bridge will look around
ahh... I remember the wrong map..
when will the event happen?
Hey guys, anyone uses steam ffxiv and is able to help me with subscription renewal?
It's all done via mogstation
right so when i go to renewal option
Regardlwss
in the mogstation
i click via visa
and i filled out everything
thenn it took 1$ from my creditg card for conformation which is ok
august 27
but now when I go back to mogstation only steam renewal shows up
you guys are all EU, NA right?
Quick question I finished Shadows Uncast quest for immortal flames and the Squadrons quests did not open
Do you have your challenge log unlocked
Cause the challenge log is required
Cause that's how yoy get recruits
Go unlock it
Upper limsa
Oh Thanks
Whatâs the fastest most effective way to level the 3 gathering professions? Is there a zone or guide I can follow?
ok, how do the best tribe quests work exactly. You get reputation, then that allows you to do better quests? Because the quests i got right now give basically no exp
Higher your rank, more items in the shop they have
The xp is very good if you're in the tribes level range
I have another question, is everyones subscription in euros?
oh ok, so each tribe has a specific level range?
Ok hold on. I dont really understand why, but i just unlocked an ixali tribe, at lvl 40, and they have lvl 1 quests
are you saying i should have unlocked it before? Because i dont think the quest was even available before
Ixal is crafters and their range is basically 1-50
they are special, allow you to level crafter from level 1
should i recruit a snowman in my squadron?
That's one of the recruits with a special outfit iirc
Hey guys! I've been getting disconnected from the game and kept getting the connection error 90002. is there any way to fix this?
The stats are basically the same for everyone on that job
I dont get it. If i do a quest on a lvl 40 craftsman the exp will scale up automatically?
Ixali need to be progress from 1
you can not do any lvl 40 Ixali quest right of the bat
and how do i progress? Reputation?
yes
oh ok, so i want to do whatever gives me the most reputation, THEN get deliverance quests?
that why you can use it to level crafter from level 1
does it matter which job I give my combat retainer?
The one you'll level
As they can't pass your level on the job
So basically give your combat retainers your main job
alright thank you, other than that no differences?
Easier to pass down gear and all
3 daily quest give the same each, deliverance more but still it is a daily progress, no way you can fasten it @river vortex
sounds good thank you!
Combat retainers share a pool
How do u turn on voice acting? It's not working
A large amount of cutscenes and dialogue are not voice acted, especially in 2.0 content.
Weird because I watched someone play early game and they had voice acting
So lilria one has none?
Probably? Not sure who that is.

how do i change the sitting pose on the bomb palanquin mount?
my char looks like hes pooping
/cpose does not work.
You don't
You don't
You don't
Well, other than change race/gender

and that's usually $10!
I want to gather demimateria of the vortex for a crafting project. Is there a better way than âbeat the howling eye (hard) over and over again and hope for desynth luckâ?
It's a market material isn't it
Does your retaining selling in certain cities matter at all?
is there a way i can access other hotbars on controller?
Use the expanded (hold both) and wxhb hotbars (double tap triggers) to access others without swapping hotbars with r1
only thing the city determines is how much you get taxed on sales
which the seller taxes changes every so often, so if you aren't someone who really cares and isn't going to move your retainers around a lot it doesn't matter
i have a crafter question how much gil do you get per hq cookie when doing the hq coffee biscut thingy
Probably, but Iâm playing f2p
Then yeah that's the best you're going to get
Depressingly that material is probably quite cheap because most people don't bother to do anything with it
found answer its about 2k
Yeah thatâs really cheap for something so hard to get
Wow
Maybe vortex rings have a better chance to desynth into demimateria than garudaâs equipment?
How should I find a group to complete Normal Alexander? Is it safe to use Duty Finder or should I use PF?
Anyone have a resource to look at all the items/gear/mount that specific Grand Companies give? I canât decide which one to choose

Thank you so much!!!!
I have this itch to collect unique equipment. Is there a way to store it all? (The glamour dresserâs 400 slots Iâm concerned isnât enoughâŚ)
Lol no
unfortunately the only way is to buy more retainers I think.
otherwise no
I think they should make the dresser hold more personally
I'd love to be able to collect every appearance in the game.
It's not that simple
even with more retainers, don't think you would be able to
!faq
#kupo-bot-spam
Whatâs the retainer cap, 9 of them?
Do the different Grand Companies also have unique minions and other items to obtain?
No
they don't have minions
Thank you!
!faq altlvlguide
I will admit, Iâm not trying to gather gear for glam, I just like hoarding I guess. Suppose Iâll limit it to bows for nowâŚ
They technically all have a hatchling minion, but they're the same thing outside of the helmets they have on
Has anyone had issues lately in game where the chat box lags significantly behind how fast you're actually typing?
It severely hinders gameplay sometimes, to the point that I can't just type a few words in a fight anymore to help with a mech or some such, because it will make me screw up the mechanic
because I can't move while it's finishing typing what I typed

Ohhh
Hi! Iâm getting this message on PS5, but Iâm already signed in, is someone having the same problem?
I need help for what Primal server world is currently set as "preferred"? (Can't check world status currently)
none of them
Aww that's unfortunate, thank you!
Iâm coming from Wow and I was wondering if there were any other wow vets. Kinda a specific question but are there any FFXIV classes that play like a havoc Demon Hunter?
can u make a macro cast another macro?
hello! i saw a video that the best way to level from 20-51 is doing grand company missions but I need to be second lieutenant so what is the best way to farm company seals?
no
psn probably has a brainfarn rn
Thanks! Iâll try tomorrow I guess
might wanna try again like in 15 minutes or so
i doubt its a full psn failure
and try switching between ps4 back compat and ps5 native
occasionally
what do you guys do with old augmented equipment? I've kept relevant pieces for my retainer, do you just glam the rest? not sure what other options there are
i still cant get used to controllers and my computer runs it smoother
Quick question. Are there any shops that sell silver ore?
On the wiki it says you can get it from material suppliers in the residential district but it's not there
no
nevermind I figured it out. there is a second trade system
wow and ffxiv battle system works differently
That's the dps right?
yeah
grab a miner and gather it, you cant buy it from vendor
Uh
if i train my squadron while some are still in a mission, will it still change the stats of the ppl in the mission?
Gunbreaker imo
says you can trade for it if you have voidrake
Correct. More just a very mobile, bursty melee dps
In that you have a dash
From farming which I haven't tried yet
no, they are grey out in those time
Is it true that you can buy furnishings off of mog station and sell it for gil on market board?
More effective to level multiple classes at a time or 1 to 80 each?
can you become a rogue in the free version?
Yes
Yes
Focus on one or two at a time
Blue quest
it says i need to be lvl 10 on my first class but im already lvl 11 marauder
ohh okay thank you!
Are you still doing the MSQ?
If you are, the exp from MSQ is usually enough for 2-3 jobs
Am, currrently on HW. Level 60 on bard, quest is at level 51.
Yeah, you can consider leveling another job now
Really?
I am pretty sure thatâs not true
Well, itâs not mandatory
Would defeat the purpose of it being a mogstation item in the first place
But itâs something you can do if you like
I would personally level a few jobs, just because I enjoy doing daily roulette
a friend told me that you can but I wasnt sure
actually still decding what class to level next
have fun lol
Just donât choose Blue Mage
Thatâs not really a job, more similar to crafting
Can always check for yourself
yeah figured best way to find out was ask not sure though
you can't sell mogstation items on the marketboard
ty @twilit arch
you can, however, sort of sell the furnitures from mogstation by making someone a tenant to your house/join your fc and letting them take the item
but thats kind of risky
since can't really talk about that in-game as afaik the gms won't side with you if they just take your money and run
Has anyone ever had a 2002 error? I keep having this error trying to sign in
I'm wondering if its an issue with my router.
hmmm that might be what my friend meant, I was just curious because I had always heard you couldn't in any way buy gil through in game means.
I'm also getting an unable to version check something or other
so I was surprised when they told me that. and a bit bummed since whaling is such a controversial thing in mmos imo
I'm hardwired to my router if it helps. Also, am I asking in the wrong section?
2002 i believe means there's like a firewall issue blocking connection to 14, that said i would ask down in #technology-discussion tbh since the more tech savvy people hang out there
and not here
before EW is released, are they gonna release full info for every new action for all jobs?
is this still accurate for pld ucob? i found it online
The idea and concept not the actual number
Ah, I definitely will do that, thanks!
how do i mute the novice network chat

how do I get gae bolg replica? I can't find a definity explanation on google
finish The ultimate weapon quest, go to Vesper Bay, take Weaponsmith of Legend, follow it
already done, I more confuse on the whole zeta thingy
Hello, Is it okay to just trade-in my stuff for companyseals? Is there a limit to it? (i have a lot of low level-mid level stuff that I dont use and can't be sold in the MB)
no limit
is there a way to make a profit from these seals? turn it into gil?
you need to complete the relic quest chain in its entirety which means getting a longinus zeta
to be able to buy replicas
if you have access to market board then venture, cordial, glamour prism, otherwise there are several item cost 600 seal that can be sell to vendor for 360 gil, an exchange rate of 0.6 gil per seal
how do you put the quests you want on the sidebar
Understood, its not a straight shot 1:1 profit it seems but not bad if in need of gil
does anyone know what drk got additional text for?
i know theres something that when you do as drk there's extra information
open journal (J by default), tick the box right next to quest name, yellow mean always show up to maximum of 5 quests at once, red mean never show
So I haven't seen this come up before but some streamer used their first fantasia and somehow race changed but clicked through to the default look for the race by accident without changing everything else. Are they stuck with that? Basically after in game you can only change hair, eyes, makeup, tattoos, right?
no, all feature, even race
does master recipe count toward unique recipe ?
the thing is that unless you press confirm, nothing is going to change
if 50/60/70 dungeons offer such poor experience, is there even a reason to do the quests to unlock them?
nope cus it is not giving exp for first time
I think they pressed confirm, because they were in game and angry. I was curious because I was gonna fantasia for Endwalker but hadn't seen the process before. Is it that easy to screw up?
I'm not sure I understand the question
oh thx, less stuff to craft then
poetics
I mean they're content in the same anything else is
you can change how ever you want, just dont press the tick. It is not easy to decide the final look, so you change some today, tomorrow other, the game remember those. On the final day where you decide this is it then press the confirm
it's as "easy to screw up" as making a character in the first place is, which is to say, they probably should've paid attention to what they were doing.
Word, so they just fundamentally understood that confirm is final. Seems not as bad as they made it out to be.
*misunderstood
even no change was made, confirm still consume it
just press escape cus your mouse and hand might betray you
Is the difference between Extreme and Unreal, the Boss's stats and level? and there is no changes in mechanics, right?
unreal is just ARR extreme trials (for now atleast) scaled up to 80
mechanics are all the same
does anyone know where to get the recipe for culinarian blue drop
I can't find anything on google
that said the official ff database seems to be offline right now
are there specific servers/ data centers that focus on raiding?

where do i buy good rings and stuff im lvl 49 and have nothing good
Aether is called the raiding dc for NA but it really doesn't matter which DC ur on
even crystal is fine so 
so, I have two friends that just started playing. one is in limsa and one is in the central shroud ... which path do i take to link them?
i can fly one of them to the other
aether is full though now no?
get yourself to Ishgard and buy level 50 accessory there
there's no way for them to meet just yet. they need to progress the main scenario quest to lvl 15 when the msq meets up
as limsa requires you to have airship access to get to/off of
gotcha, thanks!
unless you've got a house they can teleport to
Thanks!
Need someone to fact check that melee/tanks shouldn't take second baits right on the edge (to the sides ofc)
aether or primal, dont got to crystal for raiding
I see thanks guess then consolegamewiki is outdated
are there specific primal ones since aether is an X right now?
specific servers for raiding are kind of moot
since most people do raiding in statics that are cross server
Anyone got a checklist of stuff to do before starting Heavensward? Important bosses, gear, maybe abilities from side quests I haven't got? Thanks.
Is the Alphinaud hair account wide?
no
unlock beast tribe in HW, reach Idyllshire fast, start doing extreme to get mount and anima weapon. Still all of this locked behind MSQ so hardly you can miss
I'm still confused on the housing system. Assume I already meet all the requirements, I need to buy plot / land first before I can buy a house (estate) ?
yes
Is there a way to move to the last page on MB?
once you own a plot you can then buy a construct permit to build house on it
What's the point of beast tribe quests? I haven't done any of the normal ARR ones yet
pet, mount
I just take a look at the wiki, what's the meaning of first-class plot, second-class plot, etc?
main pain right now is finding an open plot and it actually being available for sale, as there's a hidden timer on plots that have been recently relinquished/demolished
how "good" the plot is
its kind of...whatever
it also dictates the price of the plot
for ARR, dye color as well @lean echo
the good plot is like, it's near a landmark? Like a marketboard or beach view?
ooh ok
so mostly glam stuff then
neat
Ooh! I see
its definitely not ebing near a mb/aetheryte that's for sure
cos my house is right next to both and its a 5th class
How much is a house usually?
How often does one housing got an empty plot?
(the faq from the bot links to a dead page rn)
very very low chance of open plots unless you're on one of the lower pop JP servers
so like, no players are getting houses unless they're doing the dumb 18 hour camps I've heard about?
I'm in Tonberry JP server but yeah, the world I'm in is quite crowded
smalls are between 3mil and 3.75mil, mediums are 16-20mil, larges are 40-50mil
What's that 18 hour camps?
yes, currently trying to find an open plot is pretty much impossible
and if it is open, you have to deal with the hidden timer
which means you may be waiting an hour for a chance to buy the plot or you may be waiting 18hrs
when a house becomes emptied, a hidden timer starts before it goes up for sale. People will literally sit at their computer clicking the sign to buy it for like a full real life day
I have a few questions about hunt trains, cause I'm trying to understand how to get my gear to max before the expansion.
Where do I find a Discord for hunt trains for the Odin server? Or there's one where you can just select the role?
Do hunts also give you tomestones to buy the 520 gear in the first place?
The mats you get from the nuts and all that you will use to augment the gear are capped from hunts like the third tier from the raid that you can get once per week?
I'm a solo player, basically how do train hunts work, like I'm 5? :D
There's also scripts that do it for you that some people use, so you're competing with people willing to do stuff like that and bots xd
What makes a plot empty? If the player sell it or the player is inactive for a certain period of time?
yeah both of those
the period of time is random
but like, anybody with a house is someone who has dedicated a significant amount of time to the game, so it's unlikely they'll be selling or pausing their sub
*sigh having a house is my dream.. I'll go get the minimum gil for it first to be able to at least try to compete to get the house lol
https://discord.gg/dZTgnpv
for hunt trains or something i guess?
at this point in time, its best to just save up the gil and wait for 6.1
I think the idea of housing existing in the world is a pretty cool idea but the implementation kinda sucks for new players who wanna t ry all the housing stuff
with the release of ishgard housing there's a imo better chance of getting a house then
than right now when you're hoping for a plot to be open
You mean there's a new housing complex in the expansion?
Oh? Ishgard housing / Firmament will be completed in 6.1?
Ok so that's one you join and get pinged? That thing is sorted then, thank you!
whelp.. I want the one in Shirogane but the chance is very low lol
this year irl wise Iâll be super busy and wonât be able to play much. will falling behind be a hinderance if I wanna pick back up again later?
there's also a decent chance they may add more housing wards with 6.1 housing
nope
YES!
Is there another name for the non alliance raids in each expansion? like trial raids or something?
normal raids
I have a dilema looking for advice. since aether is locked my irl friends cant make characters on it
do i leave all my online friends to go join them on crystal?
what does it mean when someone types in chat with green and red arrow beside it? is that auto-translate? i keep searching how auto translate works in this game im confused
its auto translate yes
you press tab while the chat box is open, or with a bit of text
like typing he and then tab
will bring up a list of words/phrases with He at the start
can you make a new character on crystal and level with them @floral needle
like
hello!
so if i choose good morning then it will auto translate for the person on the other screen? on what language he chose to? because i still see it as good morning in english in my screen
ye
@honest lotus I guess I could do that
got it thanks
it translates it appropriately to whatever their client's language is
wouldn't quite call it a merge
@floral needle and like cerwyn said theyâre merging data centers soon so you wonât need to be playing on your alt long
eh i doubt they will
merge is the wrong word
especially with how on fire the servers are right now
but you get the gist
doubt they even could
we don't know how much exactly the data center visit is going to be restricted
Iâm sure they can itâs the matter of when though
can somebody explain the 'transporting' quests from the sylph beast tribe to me? how on earth were you supposed to do them on level? have another player protecting you from the enemies? sure i can do them by switching to a high level job and doing it on that, but that wasn't available during ARR
what was the 'intended' solution?
hold on ur telling me i couldve becom a bard at lvl 30 and had more skills for my archer
im lvl 50
jesus
wtf
was it just relying on the fact that since it was current content there would be a lot of people in the zone?
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
iirc the transport quests for the sylph beast tribes has a stealth mechanic
rekt myself
that lets you avoid mobs
do the 2nd quest under the tracker when it appears
some of them are just transporting
fairly certain you have means of transporting without being detected for most if not all of those
will learning bard mess with me being a machinist
or the routes are safe enough to dodge
i just had a quest where i had to transport a bunch of pumpkin bombs
and there was only one way in
and there is an aggro mob right in the middle of the very narrow path
that hits you at least twice as you run past
doubt it
đ¤ˇââď¸ make use of the mobs line of sight to dodge them
i just switched to a lvl 57 job and did it on that
When will the online store maintenance end ?
no idea how are you supposed to avoid this one when you're near its level
that's the only way in
Just run through it then try to kite it away from its spawn node
how do you get to gangos the first time?
And pray it will unaggro you
it has a ranged attack and hits you at least twice, so that's -20 sec on your buff
Buff?
transporting buff
Sprint buff ?
transporting, you need to carry an item and can't use abilities
sylph beast tribe dailies
i have an achievement reward to claim but the dialogue option isnt there for achievement claiming with jonathas :c
anyone know why?
I might help you
it doesn't matter, i already did it
Ah ok
i was just wondering how are you supposed to do it while you were ARR level
you claim it from the achievement window now
Luck and prayer
If you are 2 lvls higher than the mob you can sneak behind it
pretty sure i just dodged behind the mobs đ¤ˇââď¸
what! can i display all achievements that have unclaimed rewards? i didn't know that was a thing
But it has a 50% chance of success
how? theres no button or anything when right clicking for claiming
click on the reward
just click on the item
^
Anyways someone knows how long the online store maintenance will take ?
And if they will remove the sale items
huh, apparently i have gear rewards in my achievements, it's weird the game doesn't tell you this

And will the items on sale stay or ?
I really hope they do
I only discovered about them just today
Fuck
there's gonna be different items on sale
its /handover
Hi all! New player here, well, ish, been playing for a week now. With the lack of addons for the game, is there a way, either through the HUD or user macros, for a proc to pop up in the middle of the screen? Also, related to macros, is there a reliable one for Swiftcast+Raise?
all the procs are displayed by a buff, you can customize your HUD so that the Status info(enhancement) bar bigger and in the middle of the screen
Ah, I didn't think of that. My mindset was making Cure II pop up (instead of just having the yellow line around it in the hotbar) when Freecure procced.
Enlarging the Status Info helps
Thank you @umbral dune
hey guys, so there is an option to submit the zodiac zeta relic for anima (to skip a quest, but it destroys the zodiac zeta).. is this a safe choice?
wait you can get a fishing chair?
just /sit while fishing
And, just a follow-up, is there a reliable user macro for Swiftcast+Raise? FFXIV's macro system is slightly more complicated than from other games
just dont use macro for that
its fine. if you want to buy replicas for the ARR relic you can still do so after turning the zeta in for the anima
i use two keybind for that
oh pheww I just did that, and was nervous as fudge
` for swiftcast and alt+` to resurrect
well. pretty much all healer put it close together
Oh that's smart
I don't think you can, one sec. No replicas without original
yes you can
you have two options with the replicas
either have the zeta in hand while talking to drake
or turn it in for the first step of anima
i can literally go by the brd replicas w/o the zeta in hand because i turned it in
Yes
there a way to disable interact button from interacting with menu elements, specifically chat
Hi guys, I'm level 55 warrior now and i try to do more class quest after 50, Curious Gorge won't give me the Better Axe Around quest. Anyone knows why?
!faq whynojobquest
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
guys i have a question why i can't find tomestone weapons from vendors but only armors and accessories ?
the weapon is generally on the npc next to the poetics vendor
the one who sells the trial weapons
Is 120ms good for MCH in PoTD?
how do you decide quickly what to desynth and what to trade for seals?
hey so can i equip 2 of the same ring
like i bought a ring of the shire
can i buy and equip another one
yes you can wear two shire rings
so long as it doesn't say unique, you can wear 2 of them
where does it say unique?
@tulip compass Hover over the item, if it has Unique on top, you cant get two
At the top of the item
at the top of the tooltip
Above the item name in the tooltip
oh yeah
