I want to visit a big house party in the mist. How to find those ?
Are you a thaumaturge
!faq msqtracker
-
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.
Is there a quest at 2 for black mage while you're a thaumaturge?
If yes you can get black mage
If no you can't
@boreal storm i start as lancer :d
im 14 lvl now following importand quests doing them
dont know when that uldah will open uyou know when ?
what is msq

The thing youâre standing on here
how i can see that lvl
Accept the quest
is there a quick way to grind Bozjan lockboxes or do you just join as many CEs as possible and hope RNG doesn't give you purple stars?
Do duels
Winning a duel gives 99
99 boxes for a victory
how do you do a duel?
Don't get any vulnerablities on the CE that spawns the duel
Then you are qualified to Que for it
Only 1 person can get into the duel
And they're pretty challenging and require specific lost actions to clear (or cheese the fuck out of it with Flare star buffing)
@boreal storm i also doing this quests with plus symbol
Blue quests are good but donât forget the story, it locks everything
aside from duels, just spam CEs?
Yep
yea i do main story and this ones only noting else
Spoiler tag it
Else do it in #archived-lore-spoilers
||They need to be weak willed or Dead..they managed to possess Thancred cause he was INCREDIBLY exhausted at the time||
||also because you have the blesssing of light||
||Also hydelean just wouldnât|| let that happen
if i travel to another server, if someone player searches me on my original one, i wont show up right?
How do you get permission to post in the #860940278201319434 channel?
Hey peeps, been messing around with graphics settings for quite a while now and finally came up with something that's both fps friendly and looks pretty good. Getting like 120 fps in dungeon fights but noticed it can tank to like 40 during fights, currently The Vault's last boss is the biggest offender with his flame+chess piece attacks and I'm worried it's gonna get even worse in newer expansions. Anyway to fix this without completely lowering my settings?
So ARR patch quests overlap with HS MQS..Should I be continuing the ARR stuff? Just did the first few, and it seems like it's just giving blue gear with weird filler quests..
Get a better CPU. FFXIV is hilariously single core bound.
they dont overlap tho
ahh, that might be it then, was looking into an upgrade for quite a while now
I was going based off this, because I was curious about when HS starts
You aren't in heavensward until you've entered foundation
Wait until asmon streams then it's open
ok, so question: Crafting classes have recipes at level 50 with a bunch of stars. Is it worth it to craft the one with most stars, or is it better to just level a bit and get gear from higher level?
Until you enter ishgard you're still in ARR
oh ok
Hello guys, I have a question, so I really loved the game, and I have decided to buy it, since the price on the square enix store is kinda high, I found some other deals, but on these other deals, it's written that the key can only be activated in Europe, and I live in Africa, I was thinking if it is possible to redeem the code using a VPN on my account since the game is working jsut fine where I live, any help here please, I would highly appreciate it â¤ď¸
The level 51 gear is significantly easier to get
It's Europe and other regions
i think i can just buy it from the gc but its not HQ then so im assuming its much worse?
As long as it's an EU code it'll work fine on an Africa account or whatever it is on the SE ACCOUNT website
the reason why the arr at are level 50 is because at the time that was the level cap, you can only get into heavensward after completing the arr patch quests
You're looking at the item level
I understand, thank you, that was reassuring â¤ď¸
crafting is a stats game first and foremost
Does anyone know how I can post in the #860940278201319434 chnannel? Or are only certain people allowed to post there?
I told you
yeah im gonna have to just double down, cuz i'm level 53 right now..hoping to not be overleveled for HS and onwards damn
It's only allowed when asmongold is streaming
I thought he was...
So it doesn't become FFXIV discussion 2
He's not streaming 14
Or is it only during the FFXIV section of the stream?
So it's closed
Ah
what should i be spending my gc company seals on?
are you on the free trial?
Promotions first
^
I'm capped
ventures are good if youve got retainers
well, soft capped i think, since there are 2 more
Do squadrons
Can't go wrong with the crafting and gathering exp manualsb
is there a list of quests i can filter by rewards?
or a list of quests that give minions, emotes, etc?
So, as a BLU, could I at Lv10 walk up to a Lv50 FATE target that has blue magic for me to learn, hit it with a spell, and then sit back and let the other players deal with the enemy?
And then learn the spell?
If RNG is in your favor
there is a list of minions emotes and mounts
and you can filter that by the ones you already have
Ah. Was mostly just wondering if I could join a FATE without being in a party and learn blue magic from it even if I'm under the recommended level for the FATE.
there's not many spells that are available from FATEs
So I recently finished ARR, like a month ago, but haven't had the energy to keep playing, like not feeling motivated to open the game. Is the game that much better after ARR that I just need to get a little bit in and it'll be a lot more fun than the ending of ARR?
and the ones there are can just be gotten from other mobs
So I just bought my fc our first house through sheer luck, what should I do now that I've made an estate hall/is there anything else I need to?
There's a fair number of them, according to this blue mage spell list I'm looking at.
If you wanna level BLU I can link you a pretty good guide and what spells to get as you go.
But most are not FATE-exclusive.
Much better after ARR
Sry was answering @candid drift
Ohh. My bad.
hi guys i need tech help with the game
but can i filter it by ones that are quest rewards?
new in town and with tech in general so please have patience with me
so my monitor (running a laptop) is 144 hz. Whenever i go to ff14 settings i can limit my fps only by halves, so it gives me like 165, 83 then 41
or something like that
long story short, i have no way to cap my fps to 60?
I would go to the tech channel for that
k, gonna try there, thanks syv
np
why does it say that one of my party members does not meet the requirments for palace of the dead?
Not high enough Aetherpool levels
Floor not unlocked, low aetherpool, both saves filled
Many things, yet it says nothing
do the aetherpools have to match 1-1?
does gear on my retainers affect quick venture loot?
Yes
No it just needs to fulfill the arbitrary requirement
There's minimum requirements for floors
Does anyone know when ffxiv will have another sale?
Floors 51-60 needs around 14/14, for example
Unknown for SE store/Steam
How and why would you expect us to know that?
We're not affiliated with squenix or steam
No but floors have aetherpool requirements
They usually pretty low
How often are fetes held in the firmament?
Every 2 days, then they go every 2 hours on thst day
does gear on my retainers affect quick venture loot?
.
didnt know that was meant for me
Affects the pool of items your retainer can pull from
Nope
You unlock stuff faster
In the shop
As it's based on cumulative points
Once you unlocked everything there's no reason to
600

whats the best tank class right now
All 4, theyâre super close in damage and mitigation.
Like 2-4% damage difference from best to worse
which one looks cooler then
capping on allegory, what do I spend them for beside that exarchic upgrade stuff?
I like Warrior and Dark Knight
Warrior for Big Axe and brain dead rotation, Dark Knight for beefy shield cooldown
Is there a way to enter a dungeon level sync'd so I can still get EXP, but to enter alone?
Hi, sorry to interrupt is there a discord group for Zadnor and Bozjan duels?
Technically yes, but you wonât be able to solo anything by yourself at level.
(Enable undersized party and level sync in DF settings)
I can solo dungeons as BLU.
Overworld monsters are much better EXP as blue mage.
is it possible to use /macroicon on something like "inventory"
Ah.
Nope, canât make items macro icons, AFAIK
If you mean the Main Command actions like the inventory one, then I think thatâs also a no.
is it possible to change instances in bsf/zadnor?
Only by leaving and re entering
when I do that I go the same one I left, do I just have to keep trying?
I wait abit so the old one fills
Has the return event started?
72
The rising is going yes
the rising thanks i forgot what it was called
you can make items macro icons, you just need the actual item in your inventory, but i meant the ladder with the main command actions
is main scenario roulette xp good at lvl 60 and above?
It's one of the highest XP roulettes
It's up there with levelling and alliance raid for the top 3 XP giving roulettes
then i will do one cuz i am sick of the current dungeon
dungeoning gets a bit monotone
only downside it takes a while
Msq roulette gives I either the best or second best exp payout of the roulettes. It balances out the shitty cutscenes but its all optional anyways
whats the easiest way to get some gear when you hit level 80? Buy a 510 crafted setup?
Easiest: buy on mb
510 is the highest you can buy?
Yes
Yup
Make sure it's HQ
Til endwalker
if i bought a mount from the store how do i get it? it wasnt in my items from the delivery mog
lol, well I cant afford to totally outfit myself its 75-100k gil per ietm, but ill get the core armors bought at least
Took almost a day to get mine 2 weeks ago
Mog but it's not gonna be jnstant
Can take up to 24hours
Press the request delivery button but otherwise submit at ticket
LOL, MB has 510 gloves at 350k on Ultros, no ty
It shouldnt take longer than 24hours
World visit
For better prices
ah, any world i should check on?
Use Universalis to check for a general idea
whazzat?
Have you heard of google
Website
thanks i was just wondering if it was somewhere else in game i was doing it wrong
You won't get shit if your mailbox is full
No, all mounts fly and walk
Unlock flying
mmk cuz i got my chocobo
!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/
so i cant get it until i do that quest maybe cuz its a flying mount?
Everything flies
whats the fastest way to get 3k wolf marks for a piece of glamour?
You just need to unlock flying
wolf marks? Frontline
oh well again thanks im putting in a ticket
someone big into macros?
i would love to use a makro that mounts me on, if im on the mount and i use it in a fat, he mounts off + useses the level thingy
how long does that take? it's through duty finder right? and is it 1k each match or just a daily 1k
Is there a way to fix the item detail popup when you hover over an item in the shop
Fix?
The fact you gotta wait to que in west coast in ridiculous
Is there a way to make it stop covering the whole shop like this?
"alt key hide item details"
ty
I think its just a daily 1k, but it's not too long of a grind. Frontline takes like 20 minutes maybe? Pretty entertaining
If you're on crystal ill gladly run a daily Frontline with you lmao
should all my gc squadron be on offense tactics?
does the "challenge to a normal match" even supposed to appear outside of saucer
feel like I've never seen it before outside and now it is for me
Only if you're in an area that allows for triple Triad
I'm not and the option is grayed out
the thing is I've never seen it even appear when it's grayed out
and now it's gone
what?
so it's like.. on only a few people ?
bizarre
They might not have unlocked TT
I've never seen it in my entire time playing this game up until like 10mins ago
Garlandtools datamines for all the info on it, right? Then what does this mean?
Help Please - I noticed to get the Weaver Mastery II tome you need to provide a HQ Intricate Silver Brocade - but that's something that can only be crafted from being a 3 star Weaver, right? And the item isn't on the market.
What am I missing? How do you craft the item for the mastery unlock?
The recipe for the intricate silver brocade is in the weaver 1 masterbook, and one of the materials, the silver brocade, is the same.
It's untradable so you can't buy it on the MB or by a friend

does healing generate more aggro than dps aoe?
yes
Thanks for answering! It shows up like this for me but your saying with the 1 star mastery unlocked (which i do have) I should still be able to craft it? https://i.gyazo.com/f122c7c3698b476d1a9ad6cf23bb8295.png
kk just wanted to make sure
key word is dps aoe
not tank aoe
Healing generates 0.5 points per hp heal
was wondering if I gave some people the wrong info in a dungeon
Last I checked
cause the healer was complaining about nobody taking the adds off him
tank should've done that
and I told him I wouldn't be able to
tank didnt have stance on
ahh
That's on the tank
he did, he just didnt aoe
ye I know, was just making sure I didnt tell him the wrong info
if u buy something off the mogstation, account wide = for characters on all data centers right?
was not 100% sure about the dps aggro thing
All characters everywhere
Past, present and future
k.. so like, I bought cruz chaser a week ago and my aether characters got it. but i'm just now logging onto my character on crystal and i haven't received it yet? @faint flare
mmk, thx for the help
why do i have twist of fate buff
Forlorn maidens give it
When they spawn and die in fates
It doubles your next fate xp in the zone
When do I get to dark knight wtf
Iirc, you get it after you defeat a Fornlorn Maiden in a sb/shb fate. The enxt fate you complete will give bonkers xp.
When you get to heavensward

What I have to do to unlock white mage? đŽ
!faq job
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
Im only on level 60 dungeons in my start over but I am starting to get bored with dps because its feels less challenging than healer. Does that change more later game?
so lvl 30 conjuer?
Yes
yeah, get your conjurer to 30, do the class quests, then if you've progressed far enough in the main story, you'll get a new class quest to go unlock white mage
Do tales of adventures go on sell?
Sometimes, if I recall they were on sale as soon as last week
Healer in general will always feel more challenging due to the importance of the role. Dps is only challenging when you're parsing yourself to get high numbers
Is levelling a crafter the only way to progress relic weapon as free trial?
Yeah, ARR
Thank you!
some guys told me to be black mage you need to be 15 but its say 30 and im 15 and im not in thaumaturge
you have to be 15 and do your level 10 job quest to swap to thaumaturge
it's 30 for black mage
have to go unlock thaumaturge, if that's what you're asking
sen is correct, 15 + up to level 10 job quest is for changing to another class
i just wanna play black mage đ
it was explained on how you can do it
15 msq to travel to cities
im 15msq
Get new job, lvl job, become black mage
how ? im new player
what class are you right now? Thaumaturge?
Nope
im lancer
I'm looking for a guide on the book part of the Zodiac weapon quest
particularly what the most efficient order to go for the enemies in/where they're at is
Hasnât reached Uldah yet
i did travel 2-3 map with ships ehen following to quest
Then go to the thamaturge guild
if you unlocked the aetheryte you can just teleport back then go to the thaumaturge's guild provided you did job quests on lancer up to level 10
The airships take/took you to the main cities
or you can just take the airship back if you have not
then you can level thaumaturge and do its quests until you become black mage at 30
sorry new here, in free trial my cil stops at 300,000. can you recommend me what to buy at lvl 50 so I dont keep losing cil on quest?
my brain burnĹng
Grade 7 dark matter/gyashal greens
thanks
if i cant play black mage before 30lvl why do i do that
i can lvl by following story?
Thaumaturge IS black mage
black mage is a direct continuation of thaumaturge
you just unlock thaumaturge at ul'dah like we said
Thaumaturge IS black mage just without all the black mage skills
Classes are baby versions of their respective job
aa so i habe to make job lvl 30 to become black mage ?
You need lv30 thaumaturge
you have to level thaumaturge to 30 then it upgrades into black mage yes
You have to make your Thaumaturge class level 30
Allocating stats for my monk resistance weapon now. I put 510 into direct hit and crit. Should I just put the rest into det?
lol i thought thaumaturge İS A CİTY
don't worry about precise numbers unless you're bis
No the city is ULDAH
we have been referring to thaumaturge as a class several times
jajjdjddfjfj
That's Thavnair, which will serve as a hub of sorts in the next expansion.
wuest put me dungeon first time im tryĹng to write understand and same time attack mobs
Personally, I think it's gonna be like the Mor Dhona of the expansion.
radz-at-han is the endgame hub, we already know this.
With sharlyen as the main city
it was doubly confirmed as we see a marketboard close to the main aetheryte of Sharlayan
Ah, I've only seen the initial presentation where it was just a described as "a smaller town."
Smaller town = endgame hub
Unlike the main new city which they were still teasing, but ended up being Sharlyan.
yeah you are not incorrect
but yeah it follows the rule of, one has a marketboard, one has all the end-game exchanges
Itâs not-mako
Aether is basically the universe magic
All magic and spells require aether
They use Cerulum
Which gets it somewhat close to simulating it
Super high tech cilivation in the past
Allagans do science, garleans steal their ideas/tech
You learn how they get their tech via the stormblood 8man raid
As it's mentioned
||aka Omega helped the Allagans get SUPER advanced||
Aether is magic energy. It's everywhere and everyone but the garleans can harness it to wield magic
"the aether" is just the current magic atmosphere.
So sensing something in the aether is like feeling a chill in the wind but more magicy
Pure Garleans cannot use aether because of their race's genetics and thus they rely on ceruleum as an energy source to make technology that rivals aether
so im here now where i go to go there
I literally cannot hit the double weaves under lightspeed on controller
you'll need to use the airship to travel to Uldah
like i just press right click to them and didnt do anyrhing else
not the ferry

How do AST heal? Cause AST in the party said they regen me with everything but I still died because I didn't defense buff enough even though I used 2 at once during the big pull, then I got kick somehow soon after. Do AST heal mostly with regen instead of normal heal? Wanted to know that will I can pull little bit easier with AST or not.
looks like you didnt attune to Uldah if that's all your seeing
i never go uldah i never see a name call uldah
also ast can either do shields or regens, but generally at low levels they should have good heals
No

Hi everyone! I just finished playing the story and reaching level 80 with Bard but ive found the playstyle to be quite boring now. What would be a good class to play for DPS that would be a better, more interesting alternative? No restrictions on Melee/Ranged phys/mag DPS. I know this question is highly opinionated but i just really wanted to see what would be more enjoyable
red mage is very fun
rez mage*
true true
but yeah, red mage is great, fun playstyle and good utility
my fave dps is dragoon, but im biased bc i love big sticks
East
yeah bard doesnt give me the oomph im looking for
i was looking at BLM cuz i like hitting hard but i dont want to be the BLM meme
The elevator attendant guy to the east
ah ye i see it
dont worry about the memes lmao
Lol, i already raised a tank and healer to 80, im just super lost for what i want to main DPS wise
i know ill eventually get them all to 80 but i really want to figure out what id like before then xD
Hey all. New player here, i can't find the answer to this question anywhere and was wondering if someone could help me: if i take a profession (ie crafting/gathering), not a different class, will i still have to relevel my character from level 1?
Or do professions not reset your character level as changing class does
they have their own level
each job has its own level progression
Everything is it's own class
And has its own level
except for summoner/scholar, which share progression
Character level is not separate from class level either.
I see
There is no character level
Thanks for the answers đ đ
indeed.
Your character level is whatever the level of what you are currently as. Thatâs how I always viewed it.
am i blind or what
You're nowhere near it
EAST of the aetheryte, elevator attendant
Near the stairs leading to the upper decks
I havnt been unlocking leve quests cause I cant ever initiate them. How do I fix this?

Then go attune to the aetheryte so you can teleport back easily
ALWAYS attune to aetherytes immediately upon entering a zone
Also attune to the shards in the city
Am I supposed to wait for resources to regen when tanking in dungeons? I'm trying to learn Dark Knight and it feels really awkward to just rush right into a boss after clearing a pack of monsters
So you donât have to walk everywhere
what's the best food for white mage and also summoner?
SMN is Smoked Chicken right?
Yes
WHM depends on your choice of stats. Can be Twilight or Smoked Chicken
No
so where is it this call the something
i just bought the complete edition, so if i use a fantasia i can switch to the bunnies?
If you have registered the code, yes
@faint flare Would I wait for my resources to regen in combat then before using my buffs?
Just use them
I used the mog station and my game downloaded an update and im seeing the shadowbringers menu now instead of default, so I assume im good
Blood weapon gives you mana back
All your offensive buffs give you mana and not increase your damage
you could try creating a new character and see if viera can be selected
Oh, okay. Thank you
okay now where do i go for Viera porn?
Balmun-slapped
is baldesion arsenal reqwuired for relic weapon/elemental armor?
when do I get the permission?
Not now. Get on with MSQ lol.
For Delubrum Reginae, do people just use the PF for it or do peopel just use a discord/static for it?
DR is ... a DF-like queue
It's casual so just que
But it's always faster in party finder cause people generally actually fucking use essenses and proper actions... Speedrun groups pop up now and then
is PF good for first timers?
Also what Lost Actions (and other stuff) ought I bring? (as a DRK)
As always, shit that increases your damage
Anything else is useless outside of niche scenarios
what are these 3 symbols?
Can use Fc crest
Can go in glamour dresser
Can go in armour
Can have fc crest
Can go in glamour dresser
Can go in armoire
How do I check what email is linked to my square Enix acc?
do i need to do the story in eureka as the job i want the relic weapon as?
99% of shit can't go in the armoire
Didnât put in my otp n it got locked so I canât log in n check
No
No
okay i used the fantasia, and loging back in, do i click cancel to do the character creation? having trouble understanding instructions
Been a minute since I actually logged without the auto password fill thingy lol
gotcha. for repeated relic, how does it work?
Yes
Cancel doesn't consume the fantasia
Just need to farm the items again for it
wait so if i click cancel while logging back in than it will just give me the fantasia back?
whats the best job to farm solo in eureka anyway? warrior?
Around level 78 in the story
Any tank/healer, IMO
Red mage too
The fantasia isn't properly consumed until you accept changes
got it ty
MCH is nice for eureka as well
With Reassemble drill
Basically near insta kills most things
Plus kiting power
ok so i want the samurai weapon. do i do everything as warrior and just switch to samurai before accepting/completing the quest?
Basically, you be on that job when turning in the items for it
The quests donât need you to be specific jobs, Eureka upgrading is done entirely through turn-ins
i should def do all this guildmaster quests ye ? i just change to thamu
Yes you class quests are MANDATORY
theres this guide that says i should buy "cryptic seals" for eureka. is that still valid advice?
Thatâs how you become a black mage so yes

Do Lv50 dungeons give normal dungeon EXP, or is it reduced just like the EXP from Lv50 post-ARR quests?
If you donât mind spending the Gil, the chest pieces are very powerful for eureka content
thx guys
Reducee
They give exp but its still shit
Cap dungeons donât give good exp
Aw. Thanks. đ
You get poetics instead
Yeah... Think I'mma do a hard pass on the final skysteel tool quests until the cap is raised, then do them just to see the conclusion of the story.
You can pretty braindead the gatherer tools if you care about the story
Netflix n grind
About to start playing this game does anyone wanna party up or something
Yâall I just downloaded the PS5 version but everythingâs so huge by default
Like
Gil , quests , mini map , hotbars
How do I adjust that
That's weird, Rising Stones in Balmung has been instanced.
Not crowded at all though.
Itâs always been an instance?
You are now in the instanced area The Rising Stones îą.
Never recall getting that message before.
Will buying endwalker on steam give me access to the last 2 expacs?

No, you can unlock the aesthetician to change your hairstyles
Desynth, lvl your crafters
tl;Dr the rising stones map is actually like, a 100:100 (I don't know the actual number) grid of identical rising stones. Which means yes, there's a soft cap on how many people can be in the same 'instance'
I remember that's how they used to do Mog Houses in FFXI. Might be how they do housing in FFXIV too, dunno enough about it.
the quest to unlock him https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Beauty_Is_Only_Scalp_Deep
Nah, the housing districts are actual districts and are not instanced at all
Which is why there's an actual hard limit on houses
I meant the interior of the houses.
should i be playing in windowed borderless?
That's usually recommended, especially if you're using ACT
Do I still get Tomestones if I keep doing the story missions after I got my daily reward?
act?
if you don't care don't worry about it
pardon?
oh ik nvm
what story missions
the last 2 from arr
what last two
how do you increase the size of the menu boxes? like system
You'll always get tomes if you que into a duty that gives tomes
Right click > set scale
Hey, i'm trying to get into the demo version but i can't get to playing the game, i made a square enix account and registered to the free trial, added an authenticator for one-time password but it still asks for my registration code that i don't think i received with the free trial registration?
Can someone let me know what i'm doing wrong?

this one
Yeah I thought maybe it was a one time thing
It's not
im lving culinarian, it seems like i should pick something to make every 5 levels and just make a bunch of that thing? is this how i level up?
how do you increase the popup size of the stuff from the menu (the bar with character, duties, social, etc.)?
Hud layout > main menu > gearbox > UI scale
my new character after using the fantasia
When you turn over your expert deliveries does it show everything in your Retainers inventory too?
No, it has to be in your actual inventory
Does it show even the gear I'm equipt with?
wait from main menu, how are you getting to gearbox> ui scale?
The hud layout screen in the middle, click the gearbox when the main menu is selected
for glamour, u have to always have the item? or is it the same as tmog in wow where its stored for the future if uve collected it once before
you can store up to 400 pieces in your glamour dresser
But no, there's no permanent glamour log
yeah its a little annoying
im clicking the gearbox from there but it's not actually increasing the size of the stuff that pops up
oh the popup menus are directly tied to screen resolution
are those in system settings?
Any good key bind tips for game pad?
is there any way to copy how someone else (a player) looks?
like exactly
besides the glamour
no
does a texture resolution upscale overhaul mod exist?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/863134672623763477/881350926105997342/unknown.png any idea how to fix this?
I guess it's a frequent crash?
It's happened the last 6/7 time I've tried to boot up the game
Can I obtain Augmented Shire Armor, Weapons and Acc once i got to Ishgal for the first time?
What's the name of this guard of Kan-E-Senna? I'm tryin' to simp.
try running it without directx 11 enabled
you can turn it off in the launcher
is there a website that tracks the ultra rare spawns? I started the timer for foxy lady yesterday on zodiark and I don't know if I missed it or not
Can you wear 2 of the same exarchic rings?
Running without DX11 gets this
They're not classed as unique
So yes
Thank you!
what gpu do you have and are the drivers up to date?
Can you go to Eulmore before reaching the msq that takes you there? I have a bunch of allegory and revelation currency but don't seem to be able to spend it because I only just finished stormblood's quests. Do i really just sit capped on those 2 currencies for hundreds of quests or is there any way to spend them?
No
Even when you DO get there, you cant use the vendors for story reasons
Until you finish shadowbringers
Just do roulettes on an alt
I suppose I'll run duty roulettes on alts from now on, thanks
And just do story on the alt job so you're not wasting xp

Just starting out. Anyone wanna play
Have they put in the gear from the design contests into the game?
All easy to farm
Ooh, where do I get it?
The skalla set and like the lv70 allagan set from hunts have been design contest winners
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050, and I'm currently trying the driver thing. Thing is, I exited the game, went to restart and started getting the error, even after rebooting my laptop
thing is I only have 2 chain spells
Good day. I was wondering my my Grand company missions supply/provision just keeps resetting? but the items are still just grayed out? Before I went to bed it said 2 more hours till reset. Woke up 6 hours later then timer went to this. I dont get it
how do i farm those?
Lost Death star mobs in zone 2 of Zadnor
Really easy to farm
Just sleep them, death and repeat
You can farm more deaths from star mobs in zone 3 of bojza
I legit have 200 deaths
you were able to play it before?
From all of it
I was, yes.
should I be using ordained
Ideally yes
only got 1 of those too lol
is the fate farm for haunting memories and vexatious memories for the shb relic farm not guarenteed?
Nope
unfortunate
Raids give 3 however
so in eureka, if youre in a aprty, you cant work on your challeneg log?
3 levels below and above?
I am currently a lv 18 Arcanist who is going to pick Summoner as my job at lv 30. Which Grand Company should I join? (This is the first time I have played FFXIV)
Immortal Flames, because Raubhan is a boss
how do you obtain more ordained for death farming?
Is the main difference aesthetics then?
I tried to reference the screenshot but
See here
didn't understand it
Non 4th legion mobs
Yes, and you can change later
In zone 2
of the newer area? or the old one
Bojza
oh okay
The table is for bojza
Thanks for the help
gonna go farm some of those then
Also gets you skirmishers as well so
And relic memories if you have those quests active
Okay, updated drivers, now I don't even get the error message, it just closes.
try turning directx 11 back on
I'm curios, Is bozja better than trust? Accounting for the fact that In trust you would still get the earrings, fc and food boost?
For every role.
Dungons are just too slow, even in a premade group
Then your premade is trash
Can someone explain a concept of Relic Weapons for Samurai? I was told that there is only one relic weapon for each expansion (In samurai case only for Shadowbringers and stormblood), but on youtube I managed to find that there's quite a bit of them...
I want to get one, but I am not sure where nor how to get it
Right? But how many of them are there?
I see... Continue...
Mhmm... Eureka and Resistance are places, right?
Eureka is a place...resistance is the name of the series
Tried 4-5 times with DX11 on, hit and miss on whether I even get the error message before it closes.
And I can't screenshot fast enough when I do get an error popup
I see... There are multiple Eureka weapons, would you know how to gain them? Thru the specific quest lines or?
It's a chain
You upgrade it from the start in anemos
All relics are a chain
And are upgraded via that chain
I see... I am interested in Pyros Blade in particular, but I suppose I have to get to that stage first
Yes
yes
do you use any mods?
Is there a video or something explaining where should I go and how to start a process of getting it? 'How to level Eureka as well as how to upregade those 2 first swords'?
Iâm sorry to interrupt but Are side quests worth doing or should I focus on main quests?
(Iâm not to familiar with mmos only played BDO)
I attempted to install a few textool mods before getting the error, but even after using the Start Over option, the issue persists.
!faq questicons
- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
- These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.
only need msq and job quests
Previous use of the same mods never caused this issue before.
Unlock Eureka in Rhalgars... Enter it...do Krile objectives (no tracked, read what she says), do fates and kill mobs to level, fates give items to upgrade the lv70 job weapon to the relic
What happens if you start a free trial then buy a subscription 4 days into the free trial? Does it add to the time or what? Since I just got a mail that says my free period is ending soon even tho I bought the game + an entire month of playtime @ me with response since I'm timed out
disable/delete all of your mods.
That's what Start Over does.
You're not on trial
I see. Thanks for the directions
So the trial ends when I've bought the game itself?
Awesome thanks guys
@faint flare @modest igloo
Yes
Free 30 days â trial
not sure, some posts say reinstall the game might help
Buying and registering the game IMMEDIATELY removed you from the trial
then why did I get a mail now saying my free time ends soon
.
cuz it comes with 30 days of sub time
Because you get 30days free
I bought and registered 4 days after free trial
From buying the game
ahhh buying game gives u 30 days
gotchu chief
Just gotta wait till paycheck until I can buy my 2nd month
You donât need to play every month, just saying
notice: it's extremely easy to pick and put the game down. there is no pressure to get to the very end all at once and honestly, is quite good on that. c:
I know I don't but I want to get my main to lvl 80 at least @boreal storm
I only need 30 more lvls
Why didnât you hit 60 on the trial?
Also say I donât like the class I started with⌠at what point will I be given the chance to switch it?
level 10
Cuz I liked the game and decided to buy it
Okay cool
and no offense I've got a life and other games to play chief :-) So I played that and other games
And I had to get into FF14 and fix keybinds and settings, hud and more
i just ran thok ast thok extreme and the boss did his ultimate move without any butteflies spawning at all, does anyone know what happened? he just went straight to it
High DPS skipped the phase
that makes sense cause we cleared in the beginning of swift liberation, felt like i missed half the fight lol
thank you
It happens when you unsync
how do you know if you were in an unsynced fight? i joined through duty finder if that changes anything
Is there a way to click on a portal or interact with something when there are a lot of players stacked on top of it?
i see, i'll keep that in mind. thank you
If people werenât lvl 60 in the fight, itâs unsynced
use a keybind for 'confirm' it will select npc's
How do i get to my msq lol
swim
Follow gotesu and dice into the pool north east of namai
just swim over chief
dive here
yeah i can't find any on party finder so i feel like duty finder is the only option
Make your own
or teleport if you are attuned with that crystal @zenith halo
won't be unlocked
you can dive underwater in this game?
havent attuned it yet so have to get there
ahh so you're not attuned with it yet?
Ty!
You can't attune to that aetheryte
I am but you unlock that aetheryte later in the story
Until later in the story
because it doesn't exist yet lol
Stormblood introduced it
i tried but no one joined, im on jp and i heard duty finder was the norm. but i'll try again for other fights in the future. thanks!
rip
didn't know stories had to unlock the aetheryte for you to attune with it
is that also a Stormblood thing?
it's in shadowbringers as well
It happens now and then
If you tell people youâre mount farming, theyâll probably join
When it makes sense for lore reasons
technically it's in every expansion as areas are locked off by story progression
well well I've got to complete Heavensward first before I get to unlock diving
And other underwater gathering
so make sure your fishing is at that level if you want to do it
idk if this is the place if i can ask about opinions about eye color? or should i go to a general chat?
is there a way to fix frame rate when going from full to borderless?
#glamour-discussion try here
you need to be a fisher to be able to unlock diving?
no
For spearfishing
you need to be able to dive to spearfish and have level 61/62 fishing
can't remember which
61 to unlock spearfishing
Not interested in fishing so I'm good Ig?
Yes
Has anyone experienced a chat bug where you don't get any messages and no one gets the messages you send?
hey guys i just upgraded to a augmented exarchic weapon is it still good to get the diamond weapon?
Yeah
In dungeons sometimes
and to FC
Diamond is abit better especially with the higher weapon damage
Ever find a fix for it?
you can't send messages to players in instances or with an active party finder
if you want to message people you have to stop recruiting or leave the instance
Nah I mean like, any message, to any chat, at any part in the game.
ok thanks
I never said that, I agreed with Tsukuyo
I restarted the game
another time I had to restart pc
That's what my friend has found as a solution too lol.
Has it only happened recently for you?
same with them.
Happens multiple times a session. Hopefully SE finds a fix.
I have had problems sometimes due to the graphic card needing an update
What does leveling retainers do?
Let's them get more stuff on ventures
I still haven't even done the quest for ventures
This might look like a silly question but, how do positionals work when you can't physically get to, for example, the back of a boss? (Like on the cloud of darkness)
then theres no postional requirement
always hit them
regardless of position
Really? Nice! Thankyou
!faq positional
Bosses that are large enough to be stuck to the wall don't require positionals. Rather, everything counts as a positional for them.
Noice, for some reason I thought some jobs were just plain worse if you couldn't physically hit your positionals
SE may be mean to melees but not THAT mean
is it okay to kick people that refuse to listen/ learn the fights and just mindlessly wipe in trials over and over?
Have you even collect what is greyed out to turn in or you just see it like that and give up even when 80% of those can be bought from vendor, gathered?
Completely justified
thank you
For Ninja's skill Huton, when I use it, am I supposed to get a Huton buff icon at all?
Is there a way to buy a store item for a friend?
If so, do I just need to mail it, trade it, or is it something I can do on the site itself?
Huton buff is the job gauge
OOHH I see, thanks so much!!
so you need to complete zeta weapon questline before you can proceed anima?
no
All relics are completely separate
is there any strategy to the jumbo cactpot or should i just hit random numbers?
Do you need to complete the whole relic quest chain in order to get the replica item for glamouring with?
For arr relics yes
you can either get zeta to instant skip the first step of anima but honestly, farming 6 stones for that step is like 20-30 mins only
Other relics unlock replicas early
OH awesome, thank you!
so...I only need to finished the first quest to unlock it's replica?
Donât repeat numbers from previous draws.
Like donât do:
1234
7654
4444
Other than that, your odds should be even otherwise.
i mean the lottery one
Depend on the relic
kk thanks
anima I mean
Heavensward replicas unlock with the light grind step
As that's when the reconstruction node comes in
the chance is so small that is not even matter much
This wonât help you win a jackpot, but it will keep you from reducing your chances at getting one 4th place draw. Which the odds are slightly in your favor of, mathematically.
Yeah, using different end numbers just make it so you get more MGP more regularly
Instead of a random bigger payoff
Depends on how much you need MGP like NOW
Hey super noob question - I'm at 17 and gated out of both MSQ and class quests, and I finished my hunting list. Is there any solo content I can level off, or am I better off just waiting for dungeons?
!faq altlvlguide
are there any resources on the expected essences for delibrium reginae party finder groups?
fates
and ptd
i need help setting up my keybinds
You use pure essence unless you're a healer
Nothing else
@edgy ice if you do hall of the novice you'll get a ring for xp as well
thx
i personally use `,1,2,3,4,5,Q,E,R,F,T,G
with ctrl and alt variants
Hm
you can swap 5 and tg for ZXC
Aight
what gear comes after shire, and is it something I should worry about relatively soon? just at Lv61 MSQ and just arrived at Kugane, if that helps
I see, will remember that, thanks!
